(From the Paducah Kentuckian.) Some weeks ago a woman calling herself Bridget Maloney applied to Dr. Jackson, of Columbus, Ky., for the piace of cook. Employment was given her, and fora short while she gave satisfaction, A few days ago the Doctor noticed some irregu- Jarities in her lite and notified ber that she must look out for another home, This appeared to in. furtate her beyond control; the pent-up devil in her nature burst forth in a fury of passion that sent the Doctor scampering for the police, and | the family for an asylum of satety, When he re- | turned Bridget had departed, leaving bis mirrora | and farniture a wreck, It appears that, from a mistaken kindness, she was not prosecuted, but | allowed to depart unmolested, From his residence she went to the hotel or boarding house kept by an estimable German Catholic named Switzher, near the Mississippi and Ohio Raiiroad, She | easily imposed herseif upon the good na- | ture of this lady, and was permitted to stop with her, paying her boara in work. She behaved badly again, and Mrs. Switsher discharged her. Instead of going of, however, she went up into Mra, Switgher’s room (it was immediately after breakfast) and sent for this lady from the dining room. When she got into her presence she com- menced to abuse her in a most eful manner.

C., Oct, 8, 1874. ‘The frantic efforts of the Chamberlaine-Patter- son Ring in South Carolina to prevent a fusion between the republicans, independents ana the whole body of the conservatives has been a com- plete failure. The ready acceptance by the former body of General Kershaw, the conservative leader, as candidate for Congress in the Fourth district, extinguished the last prejudice among the whites, if there ever was any, and to-day a highly respec- table convention at Columbus adopted, without a dissenting voice, the white and the negro candi- date, With the simpie platform of “HONESTY AND ECONOMY,”? The Conservative Convention was one of the most respectable, the most hopefn! and the least Partisan which has ever been held in the South since the war. The helpless minority of the con- servative vote 1D itself, and the riotous legis- lation and administration of the State, have rallied all thinking people upon the one issue of the:r internal domestic affairs. Absolute ‘con- cord exists among the whole bulk of whites, the great body of the blacks and fully one-half the leaders of the republican party. ‘The regulars are left to their organization, their patronage and their chicanery.

I was visiting a neigh- bor only yesterday. whose baby was one mass of pimples over the face. I supposed it was the re- sult of measies, the smallpox or scarlet fever. But when I asked my friend what it was, her answer was, “Why, the mosquitoes, to be sure. What else do you suppose it would bee” J mildly ex- plained my dark suspicions, when she iaugned and exclaimed that her baby was not to be compared to some to be seen in the neighborhood.

Now, the mosquito bar, as against the old style of mosquito, was a most excellent preventive. But the present generation of plood- suckers are not so tame, nor are they 80 easily dealt with, as the generation of mosquitoes which our fathers knew. The mosquito of 1874has a sting which is as painful and will draw as much blood aa the spike of @ prizefignter’s shoe. Then the patience and industry of a Harlem mosquito, as he sits outside of the gauzy bars ofa net, is as devil- ish as it is ingenious. There fe sits, or she sits, waiting for the protrusion of some fleshy member ofthe body, humming his dread retrain, which I can liken Wo nothing but the unearthly chant of the Incantation scene in ‘Robert the Devil.” 1 have tried all sorts of remedies, I nave bathed my face in bad whiskey, my hair in bay rum, and | have saturated my arms with mucilage, but EF find that the fe: mosquito, which can always be recognized by its shrill soprano, and its flerce bite will scorn the bay rum, absorp. the Whiskey (aiter which it becomes maudlin and reckless) and eat up the mucilage. It has aiso been recommended to me that I should kill the Mosquitoes by hand, but the remedy 18 like that of Mrs, Glass’ receipe for cooking a hare—‘“‘first catch your hare, then cook it.” I don’t wish to be iunny, but as a last resort { shall, when I next get my mosquitoes well hived, read them Tyndali’s ad- dress before the British Association at Belfast, and, like the whiskey and quinine given to Ma- grader’s men at Malvern Hills, it may so stagger and benumd them that they will possibly withdraw in confusion and dismay. Very tr A RESIDENT OF THE TWELFTH WARD. e Bloodshed In Hackensack. HACKENSACK, N, J., Oct, 12, 1874. To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— Isee that you complain in the HERALD of the annoyance of the New York mosquitoes, I deeply sympathize with you, and I call ior a return game of sympathy, as I live by the waters of the pensive and sluggish Hackensack River and do business in New York city. You may grieve about the mos- quito torment in New York, but the Hackensack mosquito 1s so dreadful and ferocious tuat even & member of the Tammany Hall General Committee might quail before his attack. Then their aim is as accurate as the sight from a microscope. Had the Hackensack mosquitoes attended the International rife match at Creedmoor, do yeu tuink that it would bave been possible for those: rich, full blooded Irishmen to have mace as good shooting as tney did? No; emphaticafy, no. The Bennett Cup would have still remained with us; tora Hackensack Mosquito—l mean one of the species who has been raised on the aluggieh, fat soil of ‘tis nel rnood, and who has veen educated, spanked; become a chosen ireenojder, and who regiatere reguiarly every year for the September and Octover campaigns—nas @ flendish predelic- tion for any Irishman under thirty years of age. Hackensack 1s to all intents and purposes under the dominion of @ Mosquito Ring, and their plun- der would make even ‘Tweed turn pale, for here they hola primaries, conveutions and seanoces in the swamps nightly, and portion out the neigubor- hood into districts for attack. By the way, 1 wonder if the bars that environ the falien Chief of Blackweli’s Island keep the mosquitoes from bis person, or do they even gnaw through the iron lattice of his cell ? ELIPHALET 4, ZABRISKIE. Do Mosquitoes Love Irishmen ¥ CommcUniPaw, N. J., Oct. 12, 1874, To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:. You are perhaps aware that we have slaughter houses, or abattoirs, in this place. Now, our mos- quitoes feed on the refuse of these necessary evils, and have become of late so daring and ferocious in their attacks that I fear they wil finally attempt to throw trains off the Central New Jersey track in order the better to ravage thetr victims, who may be rendered helpless by injuries received. You have heard, of course, of Barney Williams’ Irishman, who, dreading the mosquitoes, lay down in @ fiéid with his friend, both covered three inches deep with Siankets. A squadron of fredieg—the Wiill-’-the-Wisps ol his pa- tive land—charged ‘over his devoted head and he cried out in terror to hie bedfellow, ‘Ob, begorra, Pat, they'll fina us now! Shure, they have lan- therns wid thim.’? Tose persons who make efforts to drive the Mosquitoes away should calmly and deltverately look at the situation and conier together. It isa Joke to an unfeeling person to see @ man rise from @ troubled coucn of @ morning, his ieatures blotched with red eminences and his eyes closed to the beauties of the God of Day, and I have no, doubt that Job, whose person was like a colored atlas from bots, became a atanding joke to his ac- quaintances, But let those who mean to adopt ae- fensive measures against the mocking and malt. cious mosquito take into consideration the prog- ress of artillery science since Mentana and Sadowa were (ought, and bring some missile to bear as areadful 58 56 Jong renee.
