Jaoquin Miller is said by one of the desperate and demoralized Chicago interviewers to be "dying from unrest, excitement aud the delerium of sudden fame."

Says the Yolo (Cal.)Mail: Boggs who lives in Elliott's Southern Addition, ran across the item the the other day that at "night a horse would refuse to step on or over the boily of a man found lying in the road, but, as if impelled by instinc, would stop and remain motionless until the matter should be investigated." Grave doubts as to the truth of this statement arose in Boggs' mind and to settle the matter for himself,' he resolved to give the thing a practical te-t. Now Boggs has no horse, but owns a very intelligent and frisky young mule, so he thought it just as well to try the experiment with him. There is a narrow lane leading from the clover p?i(ch to the water trough, and he sent his little son Bobby to open the gate and turn ou the mule meanwhile Boggs lay down full length across the lane, assuming an apparent lifeless attitude. The mule had been kept in the pasture all day, and consequently was very dry, so he came waltzing down the lane at a great jate, and everything denoted a fair trial of the test. And si it was but not exactly as Boggs would have desired, although it confirmed him in his skepticism. When within a yard or two the mule perceived the prostrate form of his master, and with an explosion of sound, which was a compromise between the shriek of a locomotive and the yell of a frightened maniac, he bowed up his back, flung his tail to the breeze, elevated himself about fifteen feet in the air, aud with all four feet- in a bunch lit ou the pitof Bogg's "bread basket." Then, with a fiendish 1 \ugh he suddenly spread out his feet wilh a scrapeing, lacerating sound, and was off like a flash, not omitting, however, tegive the experimenter a parting kick in the small of his back as he departed. The price of the mnle did not near pay the doctor's bill, and Boggs is now calculating how many post holes he will have to mcrtise before he will get even ouhis experiment,

Sudden Attaclmi'iit.

Lippincott'd "Literature of Iiissiu:- .'' It is related of Curran, the famous Irish orator and wit, that he was one evening sitting in a box at the Freuch Opera, between an Irish noblewoman, whom he had accompanied there, aud a very young French lady. The ladies soon manifested a strong desire to converse, but neither of them knew a word of the other's language. Curran, of course, volunteered to interpret, or, in his own words, "to be the carrier of their thoughts, and accountable for their safe delivery." They went at it at ouce, with all the ardor and zest of the Irish and French nature combined but the interpreter took the liberty of substituting his own thoughts for theirs, and instead of remarks upon the dresses and the play, he introduced so many finelyturned compliments tnat the ladies soon became completely fascinated with each each other. At last, their enthusiasm becoming sufficiently great, the wily interpreter, in conveying some very innocent questions from his country \v man, asked the French lady "If she would favor her with a kihs." Instantly springing across the orator, she imprinted a kiss on each cheek of the Irish lady, who was amazed at her sudden attack, and often afterwards asked Mr. Curran, "What in the world could that French girl have meant by such conduct in such a place?" He never revealed the secret and the Irish lady always thought'

AM I-luminalion ot the Pyramids. Dr. Russel sends to the Loudon Times the following description of the illumination of the Pyramids on the occasion of the visit of the Prince of Wales to Egypt:

sumptuous dinner wa3 provided in the chalet or kiosque that was built for the convenience of the Empress of the French at the time of her visit. After dinner came the event of the evening—the illumination of the Great Pyramid. It was a bold undertaking—the lighting up of a pyramidical mass four hundred aud sixty feet high, presenting two sides, each seven hundred and thirty feet long, and broken into constantly recurring shadows by over two hundred courses of sfone, each forming a ledge or platform round the pyramid. However, complete success rewarded the courage of the two pashas. First, Bengal fires, placed at short iutervals round the pyramid, were lighted, and each stone shone out as clear as day. Rockets, Roman candles, .and other more complicated feux d'ariifice filled the air with mauy colors.

Rrown Bread as a Detective. From the Boston Transcript. Not far out i£ the suburbs of Boston is an ancient burying-place, wherein are headstones that afiford food for the antiquarian mind, which are zealously guarded by a faithful sexton. Recently, this custodian missed one of the earliest dated of the mortuary memorials, and he put all his wits to work to discover its whereabouts, for some time, without success. One Sunday he went to his bakers for the customary Sunday breakfast of brown bread and beans.

In serriflg the repast his eye fell upon something unusual on the nnder face of the loaf—"Here lyes ye"—in reverse order, wbicn alter some study he succeeded decypherinK. No breakfast passed the sexlon's lips until the cause of this strange impress was solved. He hastened to the baker for a solution. The bake-house adjoined the cemetery. The floor of the baker's oven had given out, and tbe_ break had been covered with the ancient grave stone, which, happily for the sexton peace of mind, was uninjured by the heat to which it had been subjected.

Horse Car Etiquette, From the N, Y. Sun.

In a crowded horse car on Sixth avenue, the other day, a gentleman who was seated,resigned his seat in favor or a slender, pale woman, who carriea a large child in her arms and was being jostled this way and that with the motion of the car. To the gentleman surprise a burly individual took tne seat before the lady could reach it. "I meant this lady to have my sert, said the gentleman, angrily. "Veil," replied the, other, settling comfortably back in the seat, "dat laay his my wife."

What Can ba Found In Dry Good Store.

There are people, whe, in selecting Holiday Presents, seldom give a thought to a dry goods house, but search for articles costly aud useless, attractivor, hut of little iutrinsic val ue, When it is just as easy to get a useful article that will be ju3t as acceptablej we believe that we are doing the readers of The GAZETTE a favor in drawing attention to the many articles to be found at Wilson Brothers & Hunley's, who now display an attractive line goods specially adapted to the Holida trade.

First may be mentioned Dress Goods—and what more acceplable than a handsome dress pattern. For this week they intend to make a specialty of dress goods and uome rare bargins may be had. They show fine line of Black Silks, Colored Silks, Black Mohair or Brilliantine, Brown, Black or blue Cashmere and other nice fa£-ics,

There are Velvet Cloaks and Furs for ladies, misses and children Paisly aud Broche Shawls.

Iu smaller articles you can get a box of Hosiery for lady or gentle man, or a box of Handkerchiofsplam and hemstitched, embroidered and initial or a set of embroidered Collars and Cuffs a pair of Kid Gloves for ladies or gentlemen or a beautiful Silk Tie, or handsome white or colored Tidies.

In the line of staples fhey have white and red Wool JJUuiiets, Linens, Towels, et lable Napkins would be nice.

But we will not enumerate. Oar objectis mainly to draw attention to the fact that many useful and attractive Holiday presents can be found at Wilson Brothers & Hunley's, corner of Fifth and Main streets.
