®istelhtn£oiis. A Ridiculous Assumption. The correspondent of a St. Louis paper gets off the following. We fully subscribe to the conclusion to which he arrives: "The deputy sheriff, at St. Paul, has sued the editor of the Times for an alleged libel, in intimating that Mrs. Balinski was let out of jail at this place, through the use of money. The damages are laid at SIO,OOO. Is it sot laughable to hear of a country editor being sued fer $10,000? We don’t believe all the editors in that State put together are worth that sum. If they are, they are very foolish to expend it in the publication of a country paper. When will people learn that printers never have any money? We are •ure that an editor who accumulates $lO,000, never does so from th& profits of his paper. You can be assured that the country editor SIO,OO0 —will never issue»anotljer paper!” (gf/*A French editor has given the following amusing description of the effects of advertising; “The first time a man sees an advertisement, he takes no notice of it; the Second time he looks at the name; the third time he looks at the price; the fourth time he reads it; the fifth time he speaks of it to his wife; the sixth time he buys.” slap a man familiarly on the back, when talking with him; it is not only engentlemanly, but dangerous. Samuel C. Cennett, a lawyer at Cairo, New York, was ao accosted while standing on the verge of a hotel piazza, lost his balance, fell on his head, and died the next day. 0O"A master bade his servant go and see what time the sun-dial indicated. “Why, air,” expostulated the servant, “it is night.” "What does that matter! Take the candle.” —— You have only yourself to please,” .-said a married friend to an old bachelor. •-"Yes,” he replied, “but you don’t know how 1 that ip.” /{Xir"“Mother, I heard sister swear.” “Ah, ■what did she say?” “She said she was go-ingto-.wear her darned stockings to-morrow.”
