Hearing of the reports she applied to the courts for redress, but finding she was not likely to obtain it there, she took the law into her own hands. One day last week she purchased a rawhide, and in the evening she went into the barroom of the Dyckman House, where the itinerant drawing master was seated with several others. Miss Jones commenced to apply her whip with vigor, when Mr. McKinney called upon those present to protect him, but as no one interfered he ran out and down the street, followed by his tormentor, who ad- ministered such a castigation as he will not soon be likely to forget.

Singulariy enough, the young lady was similarly coo- ditioned. She ushered him into the parlor, and without any preliminary ceremony they were on the sofa together. He took out his handkerchief, and, finding a dry section, wiped his nose. This reminded her of a duty she owed herself, and she attended to Itatonce. He held one of her hands in one of his, and his handkerchief in the other. Then be spoke: “Busad,I cub to nide todalk to you of subdig dearer—ah-ah-och (a prompt applica. tion of the handkerchief cut off the saceze tn its bud) dearer do be thad libe—ah ab—thad id—oo och- ker chew, ker chew, ker chew.” A moment's pause. “I"be god ad awval code,” he explains, with due solemni! “Sobe I,” she sympathizing! replies.

The friends paid no attention to the warning. It would probably have beeu contrary to precedent to remove the corpse before the time for its final removal. So tne neighbors gathered in the upper room and lamented and were very merry until the floor gave way and they all came down Into the room below. It pro’ that the wake was only the beginning of tragedy. Five or six of the “boys and giris” were killed. A doctor was sent for, who only arrived in time to certify the deaths. But the dead bodies were laid out with some order and de- cency in an undamaged room, and the doctor went to one after another, followed by a pathetic crowd. “Who is this poor fellow?” he asked. “Ah, then rest his sow!,” went a chorus of yoices—good son and good brother he was”—and then his name was mournfully recited, and other praises added. “‘And this poor girl?” ‘The Lord have mercy on her, for # better girl never drew the breath of life,” and then her name was given amid fresh praises and groaning chorusses of as- sent. Thus the doctor went lis melancholy way, and surveyed corpse after cor; f every case thus far he has heard noth lament and iegyric. His survey isnearly over, when his eye lights ou something like & bundle of old clothes thrust carelessly into acorner. “What is that thing there?” the doctor asks. “Oh, then, bad luck ta her,” is the answer; accompanied by a general sofind of anger and disgust—“sure that’s the ouid that was the cause of it ali!”’—( Zhe Magazine.
