SAMBO AT THE CENTENNIAL. Speaking of "Ohio day" at the Centen nial, the co'rospondant of the Cincinnati Times savs:
While the concert was in progress a fine looking negro man, with clean cut whiskers and hair, and well kept clothes, well put on, edged his wav up to the pavilion. The policeman stationed there got into conversation with him: "When did you come?" he said. "Jist arrived. Good Lord! I want to die. It beats the world. Just think what I'v seen in my life-time—my people freed and den dis show lie was asked how long he was going to stay. "Not long—not much money—as long as I can."
Me was qi'ick and shrewd the crowd gathered around him he saw his forte was to amuse them, and he did. He ev idently enjoyed the music. Presently the cornet player saw him, and with ready tact, began "Old Folks at Home." It was played with exquisite pathos. The old man le* an to move and interlace his ftngers his face worked Ihe big toars ran down his cheeks he laughed hysterically "Oh, Hoss, oh Bess," he muttered, I must go, I must go. It's too much to see and hear."
EXCEPTIONAL HANDS AT~CARDS. The numberof strange and exceptional hands at cards which have actuallvbeen held is very large but comparatively few of them are publicly known, cither because the plaver do not deem it worth while to put them in print, or because thev lie buried in publications having a relatively small circulation. One is known as the "Yarborough hand." 'I he (or an etrl of Yarorough once held a hand containing no card above a nine, and had reason to remember it on account of sou.e ncavv betting that was going on. Ever after'that he held himself ready tr bet one thousand guineas to one guinea aigainst such a hand being held again. A practised arithmetcian calculated that the real lds are some what larger th?.n the earl supposed and yet the hand has been held sufficiently often to obtain for it distinctive name. One whist-player noted that he held the king of hearts six times ruuning, or in six successive deals. The odds against such a coincidence can be exactly calculated, but we have not the figures at hand. Another recorded insl ance relates to the game of pezique not to whist butic serve.. equally, well aan illustration Two players cutting for deal both cut accs they tied again and both cut kings they cut again a third time and here appeared two knaves. As a bezique pack consist of only thirty-two cards—- all the twos, threes, fours, fives and sixe being rejected—the improbability— of such i» coincidence is not so great as in a whist-pack of fifty-two cards nevertheless, the odds are calculated to be five thousand to one against the occurrence of this particular event. A whistplayer would sometimes give much to know how many honors are held by his partner a fact which, of course, in honorable contest, he cat. only guess approximately by the course of the play. Nevertheless, calculators, especially the mathematician Demoivre, have estimated numeroue propbabilities in connection with the four honors of each suit. Such questions as these have been answered: 'What are the odds against the dealer and his partaer having all the honors between them?" "And what against their holding three honors, but n.t the fourth?' "What are the odds against the other two players holding four, and against holding'three?" Without going into particulars, the odds, in these supposed instances, range fromthirteen against seven up to twenty-three against one.

'ChicagoTribune: In these days
oi fraud and rascality it behooves buiness men to be on the qui vive for every dollar they are entitled to. A good story was told by one of the clerks at the clear-ing-house a few mori. og# since, which reveals a neat specimen of sharp practice. I can not say thaj it was or was not original, but it deserves mention, even if it is old. About two weeks ago a city merchant held along overdue claim against a firm on Green which street, which they had tried in vain to collect for eome weeks. That day the merchant heard of a su«picious transaction, that led him to believe that the firm contemplated failure, but were not quite ready tor it. He took the account and proceeded to the firm's store and asked payimat. The usual plan of deferring settlement was resorted to, when the creditor spoke out quite bravely that he was tired of waiting, and if he did not receive a check before he lfeft the 6tore he would instruct his lawyer to place the firm in bankruptcy before 3
The partners were all present, and professed to be quite iudignant at first, but the merchant would not yield, until at length he was paid in a check on the North River bank. The amount was 11 387. He proceeded

They glided into a bookstore and advanced toward a young man who sat facing the back of hi6 chair. There were three of them. One was a blonde, with a peach-blossom face and an $80 watch chain. The next was also a blonde, but si* wasn't so blooming as the other, and her watch chain wasn't worth so much by $40 She wore a diamond ring, however, over the finger of a lavender glove, which was worth three or four watch chains. The third one was the queen bee. She was a brunette, with melting brown eyes, and, as regarded jewelry, was far superior to the other two. The brunette asked the young man to buy a ticket to the church social. "How much are these here tickets?" asked the young man. ''Seventy five cents," said the bru

The native Boptist preachers of the Indian territory have 6ome very unevangelical names. Brother J. Williams is Til la-ma- tub-by, which means "Jump aiound and kill him." Brother Lewis Cass is It-la-ho-mat-che, which means "pairt himself red." Among the licensed native preachers are Ho-las-se-chub-by, "Draw near and kill him'" and Com-pa-tub-by, or Kill him and throw him away."
SHOCKING SCENE AT A GRAVE. 1
The Scranton (Penn.) Republican says: "A shocking scene occurred at a funeral which took place in one of the 6'iburbs ofthe city a few days ago. There was a large attendance, and the immediate relatives of the deceased were so overcome by sorrow that the burial was left to the care of some friends who volunteered their services in paying the last sad tribute to the dead. Number* athered around the grave to see the coflow red, but the men having chaise were so intoxicated that it was clumsily done. Before the first spadeful of earth was thrown on the coffin one of the party fell into the grave and could not extricate himself. A companion no better off than he, attempted to rescue him, but he also fell into the grave, and there both struggled in vain until some of the sober

The two blondes laughed. The brunette laughed. The first blonde said "What a joke!" The brunette said,"You have notj got the ring yet." "Never mind," said the young man, "I'l Siet it." "Just for the joke of the thing," said the brunette. "There's no one here,' 'said one blonde. "Oh, do sell the ticket," Raid the other. "Then I will ,' said the brunette.
The young man saw his opportunity and did a smart thing, lie took thrte —kisses. They all smiled, and the blondes looked anxious.

No, I guess not," said he "wait till you have another." "1 guess we had better go," said one blonde. "Yes," aid the other quietly. "I have forgotten whether he took that ticket or not," said the biunette.

A lady, the wife of a well-known merchant, had occasion to ride in the cars from Grand Central Depot. She was a timid lady, and had mortal dread of pickpockets. She knew she would be robbed in riding through the tunnel. The cars were crowded. There was but one vacant seat, which must be shared with a gentleman "who wore a ouster. As the train entered the tunnel the woman put a guard over her pocket. Oh, horrors! she caught the hand of het associate, and held it on to it, reslved to bring his inipuity to light. On emerging into the sunshine she found that she had caught hold of gentleman's hand but it was in his own pocket. She was intensely mortified, and made ample apology. Tbe gentleman—who was a well-known lawyer—laughed the matter off, but the woman would not be appeased she got the address of the gentleman, and sent her husband to exqlain how it could have happened. In her confusion she neglected to explain how she could hold the hand of a stranger for half 1 mile in the dark.—[New York Corespondence Boston Journal. —"Suppose.

Baltimore Gazette: Schuyler Colfax is on his way to California to lecture. He did not go by fhe Northern Panfie route
Philadelphia Times: From the long delay in the arrival of Tweed, it is now believed that he has stole the ship and cur ried it off.
The Ne* York Sun thus heads Grant's Thanksgiving proclamation: "One cans for thankfulness—President Grant's last proclamtion.'
Twelve out of fifteen editorial writers, and forty-nineout of fifty-two correspondents employed by the Nrew York Herald are said to be stanch supporters of Tilden and Hendricks.
Memphis-Avalanche: We grieve to say it, but membership in a state legislature doer- not entitle a man to the seductive prefix of '-Hon." This fact, however, should not induce any candidate to withdraw.
Courier Journal: Parson Bronlow objects to Tilden's letter. The old gentleman. as a Republican, dosn't like the idea ofhavingno "rebel claims" cashed. He thinks Hays is the man for t.ie prompt payment of those "claims."
Brooklyn Argus: The registration in some of the Philadelphia wards is peculiar. It includes all the actual population, together with the telegraph poles, lamp posts, unclaimed cats and other cenvertival eleintnts of repre entation.
Ha'tford Times: In these times even Rhode Island isn't safe. Tbe Providcnce Journal warns its friends ••hat there is danger that these perverse Tildenites will capt ire the western one of the two con ressional districts of that interesting state.
Dayton Democrat: The New York i'imes has a member tif its staff out West gathering testimony to prove that Til Jen troduced ihe potato bug in Colorado. Couldn't our enterprising neighbor of the Journal connect him in some way with the hog-cholera in dark county? Try.
Brooklyn Argus: It is sweet to observe patriotic ardor with which the man with a note book and pencil mounts the steps if an Erie phlace car for the purpose of taken the votes of the passengers on the presidential question, but it is sweeter, far sweeter, to remark the child-like expression that flits across the colored porter's lace as he politely lifts the intruder bv the ear and deposits him on the platform.
Cleveland Plaindcaler: It raises a howl of anguish in the average Republican bnsto tlvnk that the Democratic city of New York, with 1,250,000 inhabitants, registers 185,000 voters but then the same bosom regains its composure when it reflects that the Rebublician city of Philadelphia, with 850,000 people, registers 186.000 voters, and that upon that registration the Repnblicans base their hopes of carrying Pennsylvania for Hayes.
