The Fatioma) Banuer : e e e S o THE OLD PIONEER. : . _QUAD'S ODDS. ' ' Youmay not have encountered him, but every city or village over-twenty-five years old has an “old pioneer.” He -is an ‘aged man, walks witha cane, has - a bent back and scant grey locks, and ?}?h entitled to the unbounded respect. -of all citizens. - “ : Many little privileges are accorded | the “old pioneer.” He' can open the _cheese-box in a grocery, and help him- ! self, hook apples; reach over for peanuts, have the head of the table when the firemen give a bangquet, and if he crawls under the canvass on-circus day ' none of the circus-men strike at him with'a neck-yoke. : - And if the “old pioneer ” says that it’s going to be a hard winter, a soft - winter, a 00l summer or a rainy fall, it would be like entering a den.of lions for one to rise up and dispute him. ‘He predicts political events, prophecies revolutions, remembers all about how the Free Masons Killed John Morgan, and lconfidently expects a column notice in the lecal papers when he . drops off. 7 : . 1 met one of the old fellows the other day on the cars. -He assured me that_'ridinghon the cars was far more pleasant | than making a journey on horseback, and he said the country had improved some since he used to _carry the mail between New York and Chicago. I was looking right-at him. _but ‘he never blushed as he said that he used to make the round trip on horseback in five days. I-was wondering how he could haye done it. when he went on to say that New York contained only eleven houses, and Chicago only four, at the time he acted as mail-carrier. Iremarked that ‘the mails must have been light iu those early: days, when he replied: s /* “Light! why bless you, my son, I /mever had less than fourteen full ' mailbags, and sometimes as high as. twenty!” - x > | Texpeeted tosee him struck dead in his seat, but, greatly to my .sur--prise, he coutined to live right on, -the same as'if he had never told a lie. ‘«Ever have any fights with the Indians in those early days?” I finally inquired. - ol e . “Injun fights! Well, I should say I had a few—ha! ha! ha! I_wish you could go home with me toold Chemung county. I've got seven dry goods boxes filled with Indian topknots—seven boxes left ; and I've been ‘making horse-blankets %nd door-mats out of my pile for over foity years e “I% it possible?” ° : _ “Yes, it is. I don’t say this to brag, but you asked me a plain question and I answered'it. I suppose I killed 11,873 Indians during my early life, tho’ I won’t say that these are the exact figures.’ It might have been 11,874, or only 11,872—1 am getting old and can’t ren;g,mber da_(t}es very ‘well.” ¢ : - “Ever see George Washingfon?” I agked. ; _ e ! . “See George Washington!’ he echoed—“why, he boarded in my family over four years!” .'° .

“Hedid!” =~ | it . “Yes, he did.” copd “When was that?” ~ “Let’s see! Well, I don’t remember ‘just when it was, only I know it was quite a while ago.” Yes, George board_ed with me, and I've gota bill of forty _dollars somewhere ‘against him now. { He was a little hard up for cash when - he left us. o b S

. “Did you ever see William Penn?” 1 asked after a while. )

“Bill Penn! ha! ha! why, I wish I had as many dollars as the number of times Bill and I have slid down, hill together. His father lived in part of our house for eight years, and Bill and T werelike brothers. I could lick him, and he knew it, but we never even had a cross word between us. Poor Bill} When I read about his being blown up on a steamboat I said to myself that I'd rather have lost a brother.”

I waited a good while and then inquired: i ‘ ‘ “Were you in the Revolutionary e ; , _ “The Revolutionary war! wly, you must take me for a boy!” he replied. “Why, I was, the first man to jine! There was a week when the Patriots did’'nt haveé any army but “me, and there was so much fighting and marching that I-almost got discouraged.”

~ *“Then you must have met General Lafayette ?” . * “General Lafayette! . Why,on the morning of the battle of Buuker Hill, "Washington, Lafayette, Bill Penn and anyself were playing a four-handed game of euchre in an old barn just .outside of Boston. Lafayette was - killed just ashe was dealing the cards.” - “I'thought he went back to France and died.” £ el “No, sir.” Nt | : - “But history says so 0.” 2 - *I don’t care a plum for history, young man! Didn’t his blood scatter all Qver me, and weren’t his last words addressed to me! Tiguess I know as much ay any history.” - Lo e “What were his last words ?” “Last words? Well, sir, he didn’t have time to say much. A cannon ball struck him in the body, and all he -said was ‘Don’t give up the ship!'— " Poor Laif! He was a little conceited, but when he borrowed a dollar of you it was certain to come back.” . | - ! “You never saw Christopher Colum- - Bus,did you?” Ifinally asked, détermined to wind him up. i He was staggered for a moment, but then recovered and answered:. | “Christopher Co-lum-bus! Well, no, I npver did. My brother used to talk .a good deal about §hris, but I never ~happened to ..sqg im. They say he didn’t amousnt to much, after all—used to get tight on election day, kept a fighting-dog and a race-horse, and was always blowing around what ife could do.

Betting on a Man’s Own Game. . Hiram R obinson was a rich and jolly bachelor.” One: afternoon, as they sat smoking after dinner, Jim Clark, one of Hirant’s guests, commented on the ‘beauty of - a new dining ' table which the latter had recently purchased. “It’s the finest black walnut I ever saw,” said Jim. “and the only fault I have to find with the table is this, it’s just a little too high. A table shouldn’t exceed two feet five, and this is at least one inch highet.” S : “I’ll betsyom,” said Hiram, “that this is' only twenty-nine inches high.” “Don’t bet, Hiram; I'nfsure of it—for my eye, as I have reason to know, is always correct.” “I’ll bet you fifty .dollars, Jim, that it is enly twentynine inches high,” “Oh, if you’re willing. Hiram, I'll take the bet; but I tell you beforehand that the table is ot least _thirty inches high.” *“Of {-courae,‘ Jim, if youw’re right I'll pay over the money atonce,” “Well,then, . fork over thestamps, I measured the table this very morning, and it is just thirty inches high,” and 'Jim burst into a fit of laughter. “I know. you did,” said Hiram, “for I saw you do it, and knowing what a penchant you have for practical joking, I immedjiately suspected your object. Assoon as you left the house I ‘sent for a carpenter and-had ‘an inch ‘sawed off every leg, s 0 you see, my dear friend Jim, that the biter has been bitten, ' Hand over the-eash.” - L - Jim paid Hiram the fifty dollars, amid the laughter of .everybody but himself, =3 . S el < E—— How He Wanted His Picture Taken. o From the Sherman Register. Yesterday a young man with a wart on his noese dropped in at. the Sherman photograph gallery and remarked | that he wanted some pictures taken. / “Will you have itstanding or bust ?” queried the artist, - L ‘ “Bust!” exclaimed the fellow, as he picked up his hat. “Bust! Mister, do I look like a-man who would come into a picture gallery to get.on 2 bust?” ' They explained .to him and finally l persuaded him to sit long enough for sa negative. The picture was a good one, and the nose stood out like a blaek cat in a bay window. " .~ " The fellow looked at it, and as he handed it back, said, “Shoot again, old pard, and see.if you can’t make the “wart look -like a .piece of chewing gum.” - . ’ They told him that it could /not be donie: ? RS

“ Yell, just see here, now, pard,” he pleaded, “my name’s Truffles, and I'm engaged to a girl back'in Ingiana, and she wants my picture. She don’t know I’ve got this wart; it's growed since I left there; and if you could rub it eut of'the picture and make it look like something that she’s familiar with—--4 slice of bacon,-for instance—l'd feel better.” . N : They!fixed it up for him, and when he went out he chuckled: )

“That’ll fetch her; she’ll just naturally think I'm floatin’ round in sohd comforts like' bacoii and string beans and sich.” : R I . 'The Beecher Case. ' <At last the great scandal suits of Brooklyn have been kicked out of court. - Beecher has. had his fill of scandal cases,and, at his own request, -had the District Attorney dismiss his case against Moulton for libel and one against Tilton of the same ¢haracter. Beecher 'sought to .do -the same thing about’ two months ago, but Moulton objected and demanded a trial, and is still anxious for a fair investigation -of the charges against him; but his accuser shrinks from further litigation :-of issues which must. necessarily harrow up all ' the scenes and incidents of his past record and expose them "to public' gaze. It is well that it is so, for the people are as tired of hearing anything further about those scandals as the parties are of having them told. The dismissal of these cases takes the whole scandal out of court, except so far'as Loader and Price are concerned, who are indicted for perjury.. . e

. One day last week whén a Detroiter knocked at the door of a house on Division street to make some inquiries, a fat, mournful looking female put her head out and said: o * “No census here.” " -~ o “Madam, I—" CRna s “Husbandran away six months ago,” she interrupted. . - - o “But, Madam—" ° “One child drowned in the river, and the otherin the work hoiise,” she went on. ; Sl -“T don’t care, I—" - - . . “Nor I neither, and what’s more, I've got six shirts to wash and. can’t have you fooling around here!” - : And she shut the door in his face. It must now stop, though tons of sweetness wither and waste. A Washington lady sounds the note of warning to her fair country-women <as follows: “The custom of my, own sex—interchanging kisses: whenever they meet—has been so much ridiculed that it is going out of fashion among refined people, and is. kept: alive in the rural districts, where railroads, telegraph and newspaper facilities are unknown.” - 2 fris :

Later accounts of the extensive fire at Virginia City estimate the total value of property destroyed at $7,500,000. Dr. Linderman, Director of the Mint, is authority for the statement that the ' conflagration will result in a decrease of $1,000,000 per month of gold bullion, and of $1,500,000 per month of silver at Virginia City for the next 'four months, ' o .

A doctor wentout west to practice his profession. An old friend met him on the street one day, and asked him how he was succeeding in his business. “First Rate,” he replied. “I've had one case.” “Well, and what was that?” “It was abirth!” said the doctor, How did you succeed with that?’ “Well, the old woman died, and the child died.” But I think I'll save the old man yet!” :

!/ .The Grain Trade Changing. . During the last three months the exportation of grain has fallen off in New York in ‘a much larger ratio than at the other American seaboard cities. -This enormous falling off of the grain trade at this, the hitherto great grain mart of the country, is naturally exciting the attention of the country and arousing the fears of that city, as its merchants see. gradually and unmistakably the supremacy of . exportation slipping from' their hands. The falling off at all the other ports, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk, etc., amounts to 15,774,517 bushels of grain, while New York has fallen off 19,118,513, over 3,000,000 bushels more than all'the other combined ports. . s The inquiry naturally is, why is this? The explanation is simple. Just as fast as the other seabord cities increase their facilities for handling, storing and shipping grain, and offer induccments to country dealers to patronize their places; in direct proportion as they offer greater inducements to producer and purchaser, will trade flow in their direction. Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, etc., aré erecting elevators, lowering their rates for handling and storing and devising means for loading grain in ships with the loss of as little time as possible, while New York, relying .on her metropolitan character, trusting to her cen‘tral location and failing to improve ‘her great natural advantages, has no better facilities for supplying the wants of so enormous a traffic as the grain trade has grown to, than she had a dozen years ago;. or, at. least her improvements do not keep pace with the increasing demands.of the country; and it is in ‘this manner that she is losing her.importance asithe metropolis of the 'country.— South Bend Register. »

- A Car-Load of “Instant Death.” . The Salt Lake 7'ribune says that as a *freight train, bound west, left Bryan, on the Union Pacific, a few days ago, the engineer heard a singular cracking 'sound, and thinking that there might be something wrong with hislocomotive, stopped the train and examined the engine, which was found in good trim. An examination ‘of the train was then made, and in the center was found a car containing some sort of fluid which ‘was leaking through upon the track in drops. The car was opened, and inside were discovered a number of large tanks labeled glycerine. The car was' side-tracked at Grange. In moving it the wheels passed over a drop of it, when it exploded with a report like a pistol. The car was consigned to a firm in San Franciscisco, but the company have been unable to find who shipped it. It is supposed to be nitg-gl‘ycerine. The railroad men have tested it by placing a drop of it on the track and striking it with a hammer, which caused aloud report. A few shavings that_had been lying in the car became saturated’ with it, and were laid ‘on the ground and struck with a stone, which caused them to fly in every direction. A track had been built away from the main track, and the car run in on it. What to do with it puzzles every one. There must be from 1,000 to 1,500 gallons of it.

Late news from Europe says: The extent of the distruction on land and sea caused by the recent ‘storms in that country and Scotland is even now but partially known, though the latest advices'tell a fearfultale of lood and shipwreck. | The floods in Lincoln County, England, are the most destructive known for years, the River Trent haying overflowed its banks, washing away the railroad at that point and doing much other damage. Nineteen lives are known to have been last by the inundation at Nottiggham and other towns in the Valley of the Trent, and it is feared that the worst has not yet been told. -'Within the last week fifty five lives havebeen lost on_the Scottish coast. ; ;

- A point of vast interest to moneyshavers was decided by the supreme court, Monday. A case involving an illegal rate of interest had been decided by the court of appeals of New York to the effect that the discount of anote above the legal rate,interest was corrapt and illegal, and that the discounter Jost not only the “shave,” but' the whole sum. The supreme. court decides that under the law merely the difference between the legal discount and the irregular could be demanded. -

The followirig item was started on its rounds about three months ago: “Two years ago a millionaire named Johnson was riding on the cars in Indiana, and he saw Ellen Rogers sitting -on the fence, fell in love with- her, . and the other day they were married.” And evérsince, all the shapely girls who-live near a railroad, will drop the dish-rag, break /like a quarter-horse for the fence and hoist their legs over the top. rail, every time a Pullman palace car goes b‘y. . :

- Switzerland is going to erect another monument to its hero, William Tell. Itis now generally believed by outsiders that Wm.

‘“For the Blood is the Lite.” See -beuterondmy,'fini: 23. The blood being the source from which the system is built up, and frog rwhich we derive our mental as well as physical capabilities, how important that it should be kept pure! ' If it contgin vile, festering poeisons, all organic functions become enfeebled. Settling upon important organs, as the lungs, liver, and kidneys, the effect is most disastrous. Hence it behooves all to keep their bloodin a perfectly healthy condition, and more especially does this apply at this particular season of the year than at any other. -No matter what the exciting cause may be, the real cause of a large proportion of all diseases is'bad blood. Now, Dr. Pierce does not wish to place his Golden Medical Discovery in the catalogue of quack patent nostrunis, by recommending it to cure every !disease, nor does he so recommend it; on the contrary, there are hundreds of diseases that he acknowledges it will not cure;. but what ‘he does claim is this, that there is but one form of BLOOD disease that it will mot cure, and that disease is cancer. He does not recommend his Discovery’ for that disease, yet he knows it to be the most searching blood-cleanser yet discovered, and ‘that it will free the blood and system of all other blood-poisons, be they animal, vegetable, or mineral. The (Golden Medical Discovery is warranted by him to cure the worst forms of Skin Diseases, as all forms of Bldtches, Pimples, and Eruptions; also all Glandular Swellings, and the worst: form of Serofulous and Ulcerated Sores of the Neck, Legs, or other parts,: and all Serofulous Diseases of the Bones, as White Swellings, Fever Sores, Hip-joint and Spinal Diseases,— all of which belong: to Serofulous Diseases. e

Queen Victoria and the members of Parliament, have been invited to attend the Centennial, at Philadelphia. Of course, the invitation is a friendly one_and without malice, but then it looks very much like a Crow chief calling a white man into his wigwam to see the scalp of his youngest son.
