escaseeanaot be made that they have not

10:08 a. mlfouday. although detained elev-
en minutes at Barlem.was nine minutes
ahead of time when it reached here. and
while waiting for that length of time. the
main thoroughfare of our city was block-

the afternoon train had to sleckcn speed all

A gentlcumu known throughout the city
for his uniform politeness. was considerably
uonplussod a few days slnec.'by s female
whom he overtmvk on a road leading out of
the city. He was alone and could not pass
a weary female pedestrian without offering
her a ride in his commodlous bugsv. After
inquiring her destination and learning that
she was bound for a place. that he would
pass on his way. he politely invited her to
ride- “Well.“ s’iiys she. ”i don’t care if I
do; poor company is better than none."
The gentleman assisted her to a seat beside
him. and patiently waited his revenge. Af-
ter riding on for some time the lady inquired
if they were not near where she wished
to stop. “ Oh yes." said the man." we have
gone by about two miles. and as you like
pour company better than none. you may
walk back alone." What followed we did
not learn. but any of our readers may bung-

A few nights since Mr. A. Raymond rc-
turned from the city late in the evening. and
did not immediately retire. but sat down to
road the Snowman (no man can sleep sound:
ly until he has done this). In the room
with him was a small dog—the pct. of the
family. Just as Mr. R. had become inter-
ested in perusing the powerful srtlclm of
this journal. the dog began to show symp-
toms of uneasiness and manifested a desire
to get out of the house Mr. R tried to
quiet the dog. without avail. and so getting
up. he let him out. Hardly had he closed
the door before it terrible yell was heard in
the vicinity of his hennory. He immedi-
ately repaired thither. and found his canine
attached to the rear of a masculine. who
was reading the air with chunks of pain.
The dog had fastened his teeth in that part
of the man‘s back best calculated for a good
hold. and was holding on like a snapping
turtle. The man begged of Mr. Raymond
to call his dog off. which was not done for
some time, and when he did let go. the
would-be hen-roost robber darted over the
fence like a flying goblin. and has not since
been seen. Mr. it thinks that the follow
will spend his time standing for some time‘
as his sitting-down place is minus half a
pound of flesh.

We print below a list of the accomplish-
ments of the celebrated English horse.
“ Cotton.“ This horse was the grandsire of
the horse of Mr. Hubbard Blukesly. known
as “ American Prise." and in that connec-
tion will prove of interest to stock raiser-s
in this «immunity. We have noticed this
horse. and we have no hesitation to saying
that to us he shows many points of excel-
lence. Descending from so illustrious a
sire. be is said to inherit ' all the character-
istics of his progenitors ' This stock of
horses is the only one that has ever produced
an animal capable of traveling twenty miles
bf an hour. a feature of great importance in
stock raising. All of “ American Price‘s"
colts show the same points so prominent in
him. and we feel that it is for the interest of
those who wish to raise horses that will
prove valuable. to give this matter their at-
tention. »
