O my God! Inconstant I When a single thought of thee During the summer months tliey use very little fresh meat. They do not like it boiled, and are not partial to it raw, unless it has been dried. In November there is a great slaughter, and a wealthy man, who has perhaps 7,000 sheep, will kill 200 at this time for his year's consumption. The animal after being killed is skinned and gutted and then placed on. its feet in a free current of air. In a couple of days it becomes quite hard and is then ready for eating. It is kept in this way for more than a year without spoiling, even during the rainy periods. When long exposed to the wind of Thibet it becomes so dry that it may be rolled into powder between the hands. In this state it is mixed with water and drnnk, and used in various other ways. The Thebetans eat animal food in endless forms, and a large portion live on nothing else. The livers of sheep and other animals are similarly dried or frozen, and are much prized but to strangers they are very distasteful for their bitterness and hardness. The fat is dried, packed in the stomachs, and then sent to market or kept for home use. With regard to edible vegetables, it is stated that wheat, barley, and buckwheat sown in April or May and irrigated, ave reaped in September, barley in Thibet taking the place of potatoes in Ireland, four-fifths of the population living on it. Besides, these the other crops are composed of peas, turnips, and a little mustard. The grain is ground in water-mills. The bread is all unleavened, and cooked on heated stoves or gridirons.

Not my own The hand which builds this wall between our lives ; On its cold shadow grown To perfect shape, the flower of love survives. A gentleman living iu Brooklyn, who takes great delight in liis flour garden, was for a long time much annoyed by the depredations of his neighbors' cats. It appeared as though his particular gaiden was selected for the scene of the nightly revels of all the cats in the city. Independent of the desolation they brought upon his rose, tulip, geranium, and other flowers, they kept the whole household awake every night by their incessant and noisy scrimmages. Driven r.t last to desperation, the annoyed citizen laid in ambush one night lately with a well-loaded shot-gun, and when the congress were in full session, blazed away. In a couple of nights eight felines fe'l victims to his unerring aim. As animal matter is good for vegetation, he determined to bury the slaughtered grimalkins at the roots of his grape vines. Being a quaint kind of a genius, it struck him that as the game had done so much when alive to disorganize his attempts at adornment, it would be only fair that they should make as much repaiation as possible after death. He accordingly buried the eight innocents in a striglit line, equidistant, heads downward, but left their tails (which in dead cats are always as stiff as a poker) sticking out of the ground. To assimilate them somewhat to the brilliancy of the flowers around, he adorned each tail with colored streamers. In doiDg this he simply had an eye to the beautiful, but the effect upon the friends and relatives of the buried pussies was as singular as satisfactory. On the first evening after burial, our friend heard a most unnatural and terrible howl of anguish in his garden. Bushing to the window, by the light of the moon he descried three or four cats standing opposite their inverted brethren, and showing every symptom of the acutest terror. Their eyes looked like burning coals of fire', and appeared to be starting out of their heads, as they winklessly glared at those terrible caudle extremities. Their hair stood on end, ilieir tails were swelled to double their natural proportions, and each cat was standing stiff upon its toe-nails, apparently spell-bound. For a minute they thus stood, horribly howling, and then, with a simultaneous shriek, they all dashed madly over the fence, aud fled in terror away. Since then our friend has been enabled on nights to sleep the sleep of the virtuous, and his flower-beds are left intact. The discoverers ef the cat-astrophe are supposed to have disseminated the news of the terrible scene among the other felines; for although occasionally a cat is observed glaring for an instant over the fence at a row of tails, as though seeking confirmation of the shocking news, and then mournfully, but precipitately retiring, not one has since that niglit set its foot m our friend's garden.

This community was shocked yesterday by hearing that John Doe, a man of quiet and studious habits, and somewhat known in a literftry way, had murdered i u cold blood an unoffending neighbor, Richard Roe. Mr. Doe perpetrated the horrid deed in open day, in the crowded street, without the slightest provocation. When a passing policeman seized him, and asked him what bad prompted him to imbue his hands (this will no doubt be the reporter's exact language) in the blood of a fellow-creature, he made no reply. Then followed this colloquy: Polieeman—Are you insane, Mr. Doe? Doc—Never saner in my life. Policeman—had Roe ever done you any injury? THE CLOTHING EMPORIUM ! MAIN STREET, PITTSTC&. •The evening wai nearly over when Eleanor was surprised to hear a wellknown voice at her side saying: " Mrs. Lambert, do you hear your favorite waltz? Let me have my last dance in America with you." When you find a newspaper on a ball room floor, it isn't always proper to pick it up and wonder where it came from and ask unnecessary questions concerning the peculiarity of the folds. We know of a young man who did that net long since, and he couldn't get another girl to dance with him during tbe evening. STRONG STEAM HILL, TOHN S.

The undersigned having purchased of Thomas Waddell the Strong Steam Mill, and assumed the business of f&id C stablishment, he would respectfully give notice that he will be at all times prepared to sell to the trade GENTS' FURNISHING GOODS! Chas. H. Phelps, a jeweler of New York was killed by burglars who were attempting to rob his house. Hearing a noise Mr. P. made a search and bad reached the recess under the stairs which led to the third floor when he saw two men rush past. One was instantly seized by Mr. Philps, and a struggle ensued. While Mr. Phelps was struggling with this thief his confederate came to his assistance and seized Mr. Phelps by the arms. The first thiet then rushed down stairs, ran out of the hall door and escaped. Mr. Phelps clung to the other, and a terrible struggle for the mastery ensued. The thief was the more powerful man of the two, and Mr. Phelps, finding that he was getting the best of him, shouted for a friend in the house to come to his assistance. The friend heard the call and started to come down the steps. At this the thief redoubled his exertions to free himself from the grasp of Mr. Phelps. Finding that he could not do so in time to escape from the other gentleman, who by this time was half way down the steps, he pulled a revolver from his breast pocket, and placing the muzzle close to Mr. Phelps' breast fired. The shock caused Mr. Phelps to loosen his hold, and the thief darted for the stairs. Physicians were called who declared Mr. Phelps' wound mortal. His wife, who was in Syracuse, was telegraphed for to come home, and liisdaughter, who was at boarding-school, was sent for. On her arrival she fainted away, and was with difficulty revived. Cheap Dinners.—Sheep are actually selling in New Zealand at a price as low as from thirty-seven to sixty-two cents each ! One late writer there rays : "I sold four thousand store wethers this week at 2s. 6d. each (English mon. y.) Iam offered old ewes at Is. Gd." What a contract to prices here and in England ! Fifteen cents for a whole leg of l'uutton ! T«n cents for a whole fore quarter ! If the'cost of mutton, of excellent quality, figured at so low a mark in this city, we fancy that thousands of persons would be delighted. It is those that dine on mutton who get fleeced in this quarter, as well as the " critters" that suppiy the substance of the dinner. Good mutton is worth in London from twenty-five to thivty cents a pound. It is something less in New York. But only think of two cents a pound for a roasting leg in New Zealand !

Although I had heard you were married, I came back to America for the sake ot seeing you. I thought I could be near you and be only your friend. But you are unhappy, and every sorrow I read in your tace casts its shadow upon my heart. I cannot see you suffer and be silent. Why did you neve- write, and why do I find you married to that man so devoid of principle and honor, and whom I know you secretly loathe and despise f" The proud look went out of her face, her voice was low and tender, her eyes full of unshed tears when she replied : " Robert, T never saw your letters. My father kept them. I heard of you as well and prosperous, but thought you had forgotten rne and that I must forget you. Believing that, my heart was dead to love, and my marriage with Oscar Lambert saved my father from bankruptcy I deserve your pity but not your censure." To the man who loved her, the seven years of unhappiness that had separated them seemed to vanish, and she stood before him a gentle, pleading girl. He hpd enly one wish in the world—to take her away and shut out every care and sorrow from her future life. He said suddenly: " Ifou did love me as 1 always loved you!

Although Captain Preble never had a trial, it was charged that he was guilty of gross negligence. Captain Maffit, who commanded the Florida at the time, testified that by a rrute de guerre in fljintr the British flag he got within hailing distance of Preble's squadron, and was promptly hailed ; that thereupon he ran down the English flag and ran up the Confederate flag ; that Preble immediately fired a shot across his bows, and in less than three minutes fired a broadside into the Florida, which tore the vessel all to pieces, killed oDe man and wounded eleven ; and that Preble thoroughly and completely discharged his duty.

O my God! Inconstant I When a single thought of thee During the summer months tliey use very little fresh meat. They do not like it boiled, and are not partial to it raw, unless it has been dried. In November there is a great slaughter, and a wealthy man, who has perhaps 7,000 sheep, will kill 200 at this time for his year's consumption. The animal after being killed is skinned and gutted and then placed on. its feet in a free current of air. In a couple of days it becomes quite hard and is then ready for eating. It is kept in this way for more than a year without spoiling, even during the rainy periods. When long exposed to the wind of Thibet it becomes so dry that it may be rolled into powder between the hands. In this state it is mixed with water and drnnk, and used in various other ways. The Thebetans eat animal food in endless forms, and a large portion live on nothing else. The livers of sheep and other animals are similarly dried or frozen, and are much prized but to strangers they are very distasteful for their bitterness and hardness. The fat is dried, packed in the stomachs, and then sent to market or kept for home use. With regard to edible vegetables, it is stated that wheat, barley, and buckwheat sown in April or May and irrigated, ave reaped in September, barley in Thibet taking the place of potatoes in Ireland, four-fifths of the population living on it. Besides, these the other crops are composed of peas, turnips, and a little mustard. The grain is ground in water-mills. The bread is all unleavened, and cooked on heated stoves or gridirons.

Not my own The hand which builds this wall between our lives ; On its cold shadow grown To perfect shape, the flower of love survives. A gentleman living iu Brooklyn, who takes great delight in liis flour garden, was for a long time much annoyed by the depredations of his neighbors' cats. It appeared as though his particular gaiden was selected for the scene of the nightly revels of all the cats in the city. Independent of the desolation they brought upon his rose, tulip, geranium, and other flowers, they kept the whole household awake every night by their incessant and noisy scrimmages. Driven r.t last to desperation, the annoyed citizen laid in ambush one night lately with a well-loaded shot-gun, and when the congress were in full session, blazed away. In a couple of nights eight felines fe'l victims to his unerring aim. As animal matter is good for vegetation, he determined to bury the slaughtered grimalkins at the roots of his grape vines. Being a quaint kind of a genius, it struck him that as the game had done so much when alive to disorganize his attempts at adornment, it would be only fair that they should make as much repaiation as possible after death. He accordingly buried the eight innocents in a striglit line, equidistant, heads downward, but left their tails (which in dead cats are always as stiff as a poker) sticking out of the ground. To assimilate them somewhat to the brilliancy of the flowers around, he adorned each tail with colored streamers. In doiDg this he simply had an eye to the beautiful, but the effect upon the friends and relatives of the buried pussies was as singular as satisfactory. On the first evening after burial, our friend heard a most unnatural and terrible howl of anguish in his garden. Bushing to the window, by the light of the moon he descried three or four cats standing opposite their inverted brethren, and showing every symptom of the acutest terror. Their eyes looked like burning coals of fire', and appeared to be starting out of their heads, as they winklessly glared at those terrible caudle extremities. Their hair stood on end, ilieir tails were swelled to double their natural proportions, and each cat was standing stiff upon its toe-nails, apparently spell-bound. For a minute they thus stood, horribly howling, and then, with a simultaneous shriek, they all dashed madly over the fence, aud fled in terror away. Since then our friend has been enabled on nights to sleep the sleep of the virtuous, and his flower-beds are left intact. The discoverers ef the cat-astrophe are supposed to have disseminated the news of the terrible scene among the other felines; for although occasionally a cat is observed glaring for an instant over the fence at a row of tails, as though seeking confirmation of the shocking news, and then mournfully, but precipitately retiring, not one has since that niglit set its foot m our friend's garden.

Chas. H. Phelps, a jeweler of New York was killed by burglars who were attempting to rob his house. Hearing a noise Mr. P. made a search and bad reached the recess under the stairs which led to the third floor when he saw two men rush past. One was instantly seized by Mr. Philps, and a struggle ensued. While Mr. Phelps was struggling with this thief his confederate came to his assistance and seized Mr. Phelps by the arms. The first thiet then rushed down stairs, ran out of the hall door and escaped. Mr. Phelps clung to the other, and a terrible struggle for the mastery ensued. The thief was the more powerful man of the two, and Mr. Phelps, finding that he was getting the best of him, shouted for a friend in the house to come to his assistance. The friend heard the call and started to come down the steps. At this the thief redoubled his exertions to free himself from the grasp of Mr. Phelps. Finding that he could not do so in time to escape from the other gentleman, who by this time was half way down the steps, he pulled a revolver from his breast pocket, and placing the muzzle close to Mr. Phelps' breast fired. The shock caused Mr. Phelps to loosen his hold, and the thief darted for the stairs. Physicians were called who declared Mr. Phelps' wound mortal. His wife, who was in Syracuse, was telegraphed for to come home, and liisdaughter, who was at boarding-school, was sent for. On her arrival she fainted away, and was with difficulty revived.

Fifteen cents for a whole leg of l'uutton ! T«n cents for a whole fore quarter ! If the'cost of mutton, of excellent quality, figured at so low a mark in this city, we fancy that thousands of persons would be delighted. It is those that dine on mutton who get fleeced in this quarter, as well as the " critters" that suppiy the substance of the dinner.

Although I had heard you were married, I came back to America for the sake ot seeing you. I thought I could be near you and be only your friend. But you are unhappy, and every sorrow I read in your tace casts its shadow upon my heart. I cannot see you suffer and be silent. Why did you neve- write, and why do I find you married to that man so devoid of principle and honor, and whom I know you secretly loathe and despise f" The proud look went out of her face, her voice was low and tender, her eyes full of unshed tears when she replied : " Robert, T never saw your letters. My father kept them. I heard of you as well and prosperous, but thought you had forgotten rne and that I must forget you. Believing that, my heart was dead to love, and my marriage with Oscar Lambert saved my father from bankruptcy I deserve your pity but not your censure." To the man who loved her, the seven years of unhappiness that had separated them seemed to vanish, and she stood before him a gentle, pleading girl. He hpd enly one wish in the world—to take her away and shut out every care and sorrow from her future life. He said suddenly: " Ifou did love me as 1 always loved you!

Preble, who was summarily dismissed from the Navy in 1864 by President Lincoln for allowing the Confederate privateer Florida to run by his squadron and the blockade into the port of Mobile. Although Captain Preble never had a trial, it was charged that he was guilty of gross negligence. Captain Maffit, who commanded the Florida at the time, testified that by a rrute de guerre in fljintr the British flag he got within hailing distance of Preble's squadron, and was promptly hailed ; that thereupon he ran down the English flag and ran up the Confederate flag ; that Preble immediately fired a shot across his bows, and in less than three minutes fired a broadside into the Florida, which tore the vessel all to pieces, killed oDe man and wounded eleven ; and that Preble thoroughly and completely discharged his duty.

He dismounted, and, taking a hatchet from his cart, approached the reptile for a fight. In the twinkling of an eye his feet were knocked from under him, and his legs caught in the monstei's mouth. Being an old man, the fight would have gone against him had not a colored man by the name of George Bug, who happened to be passing along, dispatched the alligator with a pistol. Mr. Kelly's leg was considerably lacerated, tso much so that it is probable ho will nevem#|pin attempt to chop a Saurian with his little hatchet. BLACKSMITH INC, ETC.
