semi-unconsciousness, and never spoke again,
not a great deal, till he got home.

He has ordered that there be no more borrowing of sugar and drawings of
tea back and forth between his house and that of the lady who broke his
heart, and be has announced that he will go without saurkraut all
winter rather than borrow a machine for cutting cabbage of a woman that
would destroy the political prospects of a man who had never done a wrong
in his life.

He has written to the chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee
to suspend judgment on his case, until he can explain how it happened that
a dyed-in-the-wood Democrat hurrahed for Garfield.

THE WRONG CORPSE.

A corpse got a good joke on the people of Quebec the other day. It came
there by express, and was only an ordinary, every-day man, but the Kanucks
were looking for a military corpse, and supposing our ordinary corpse to

in Canada, the day before the draft.

at Watertown Junction it created considerable curiosity. People who have
ever passed Watertown Junction have noticed the fine old gentleman who
comes into the car with a large square basket, peddling popcorn. He is one
of the most innocent and confiding men in the world. He is honest, and he
believes that everybody else is honest.

He came up to the depot with his basket, and seeing the train he asked
Pierce, the landlord there, what train it was. Pierce, who is a most
diabolical person, told the old gentleman that it was a load of members of
the legislature and female lobbyists going to Madison. With that beautiful
confidence which the p
