MBMCOLUMBIA, TENN., FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1872.

A NEVADA FUNERAL.

One of Hark Twain's Best Stories.

There was a graud time over BuckFaushaw when he dittl. He was arepresentative citizen. He had "killedhis man" not in his own quarrel, it istrue, but in defense of a strangerby numbers. He had kept a sumptu-ous saloon. He had been the proprie-tor of a dashiug helpmeet, whom hecould have discarded without the lor-mali- ty

of a divorce. He had held ahigh position in th3 lire department,ami lieen a very Warwick iu jiolilics.When lie died there was a great lam-entation throughout the town, butespecially in thy vast bottom stratumoi society.

On the inquest it was shown thatBuck Fanshaw, in the delirium of awasting typhoid fever, had taken arse-nic, shot himself through the hod v.cut his,throat and jumped out of a fourstory window and broken his neck:aud after due deliberation the jury, sadana teariui, nut Willi intelligence unburn uxl by its sorrow, brought maverdict of death "by the vidtalion ofGod." What could the world do without juries?

iToUigious preparations were madefor the funeral. All the vehicles iutown were hired, and all the saloonswere put in mourning, all the munici-pal and fire company Hairs M'ere hunsat half mast, and all the fireman ordered to muster iu uniform and bringtheir machines duly draped in black.

icegretiul resolutions were passedand various committees were appoint-ed : anions others, a committee of onewas appointed to call on a iuini-te- r afragile, gentle, spiritual new fledglingfrom an Eastern theological semi nary.and as yet unacquainted with the waysof the mints. The committeeman.

Scotty" Briggs, made his visit.'Being admitted to his presence he

sat down before the clergyman, placeduis lire iiat on an unnnislictl manuscript sermon under the minister'snose, took from it a red silk handkerchief, wiied his brow and heaved asigh of dismal impressivencss explanatory of his business. He cuoketl anileven shed teais, but with an effort hemastered his voice, and tajd in lugu-brious tones:

"Are you the duck that runs the gospel mill next door?"

"Am 1 the pardon ine, l believe ldo not understand ?"

With another sigh aud a half sobScotty rejoined : i

"Why. vou see, we are in a bit oftrouble, and the boys thought maybeyou'd give us a lift if we'd tackle you,that is, if I've got the rights ot it andyou are tho head clerk of the doxologyworks next door."

"I am the shepherd in charge of theflock whose fold is next door."

"The which?""The spiritual adviser of the little

company of believers whose sanctuaryadjoins these premises."

fccotty scratched Ins Head, reflected amoment, and then said :

" lou rather html ine over, pan!. 1

reckon I can't call that hand. Auteand pass the buck."

"How? I beg pardon. What did 1

understand you to say?""YVeu, you've rather got the bulge

on me. . Or may be we've both got thebulge, somehow. You dou't smokemeaud 1 don't smoke you. You see,one of the boys has passed iu his cheeksand we want to give him a good sendoil, aud to the thing I'm ou now is totout out somebody to jerk out a littlechin iuumc for us, and waltz himthrough handsome.

"My friend, 1 seem to grow. Jtuoreand more bewildered. Your observations are wholly incomprehensible tome. Cannot you simplify them someway? At first I thought lierhaps I understood yon, but now I grope. Wouldit not cxieuile matters if you restrictedyourself to categorical statements offact unincumbered with obstructingaccumulations of metaphor antl allegory?"

Auother igiuse, and more reflection.Then Scotty said :

" I'll have to pass, I judge.""How?""You've rai-e- d me out, parti.""1 still fail to catch your meaning.""Why, that last lead of youm is too

many for mc that's the idea; I can'tneither trump nor follow suit."

the clcrsryman sank back into hischair perplexed. Scotty leaned hisbead on his hand, and gave himselftip to reflection, l'resenlly his facecame up, sorrowful but confident.

"I've got it now, so's you can savvy," said he. "What we want is agospel-shar- p. See?"

"A what?""Gospel-shar- p, parson.""Oh ? why did you not say so before?

I am a clergyman a parson.""Now you talk ! You see my blind.

and straddle it like a man. Put itthere!" extending a brawny paw,which closed over the minister's smallhand antl gave it a shake indicative offraternal sympathy aud fervent grati-fication. -

"Now we're all right, pard. Let'sstart fresh. Don't you mind me snuffling a litlle, becoz we're iu a power oftrouble. You ste one of the boys hasgone up the flume"

"Uoue where""Up the flume throw'd up the

sponge, you know.""Thrown up tne sponge?""Yes kicked the bucket""Ah has departctl to that mysteri

ous country from whose bourne notraveler ret urns."

"Return? Well, I reckon not. Why,pari I, he's dead."

"Yes, I understand.""Oh, you do? Well I thought may-

be you might be getting tangled oncemore. Yes, you see he's dead again."

"Again! Why, litis he ever Iwendead before?"

"Dead before ? No. Do you reckona man has got as many lives as a cat?But, you bet, he's awfully dead justnow, lmor old boy, ami I wish I'dnever seen this day. I don't know nobetter friend than Buck Fanshaw. Iknow'd hint by the back; ami when Iknow a man like him I freeze to him

you hear me. Take him all around,pard, tnere never was a Mil her manin the mines. No man ever kuowedBuck Fanshaw to go back on a friend,But it's all up you know: it's all up,It ain't no use. They've scoopedmm

"Scooped him?""Yes death has. Well, well, well,

we've got jo. give him up. Yes, indeed.It's a kitm of hard world, after all,ain't it? liut, pard, lie was a rustler,You ought to see him cet started onceHe was a I ully lxiy with a glass eye !

Just spit in his face and crive him roomaccording to his strength1 an ! it wasjust beautiful to see him peel and goin. He was Ihe worst son of a thiefthat ever draw'd breath. Pard, be wason it. He was on it bigger than aninjun:"

"On it? Ou what?""On the shoot. On the

g a cuss word but you see I'min an awful strain ia this palaver, onaccount of having to cram down anddraw everything so mild. But we'vegot to give him up. There ain't auygetting around that, I don't reckon.Now, if we can get you to help plantmm "

"Preach the funeral discourse? Assist at the obsequies?"

"Obsequies is good. Yes. That's it :

trial's our nine game, we are goingto get up Hie tiling regaruless, youknow. He was always nifty himself.and so you liet you his funeral ain'tgoing to be no slouch; solid silverdoor-plat- e on his coffin, six plumes onthe hearse, and a nigger on the loxwith a biled shirt and a j !ng ha- t-hows that for high! And we'll takeecar of you, pard. We'll ftx you ail

right. There will be a kerridge foryou; anu wnatever you want, youjust 'scape out ami we'll tend to it.We've goL a shebang fixed up for youto stand lehiiid in No. l's liousc, auddon't you bo afraid. Just go iu andtisit your born, if you don't tell a clam.Put Buck through as bully as you can,paid, for anylmdy that know'd himwill tell you that be was one of thewhitest, men that was ever in themines.' .You can t draw it too strong.He never could stand it to see thingsgoing wrong. He's done more to makethis town peaceable than any man init. I've seen him lick four Greasers ineleven minutes, myself. If a thingwanted regulating, be wasn't a inawfto go Itrowsing around after somebodyto do it, but he would prance in audregulate it himself. . He warn't jTI

Catholic; but it didn't make no dif-ference about that when it came downto what a man's right was and so,when some roughs jumpted the Catho-lic boucyard aud t tarted in to stakeout towu lots in it, he went for-'em- !

And he cleaned 'em, too! I was there,and seen it myself."

"That was very well, indeed atleast the impulse w'as whether the actwas strictly defensible or riot. Haddeceased any religious convictions?That is to tay, did live feel a dependenceor acknowledge allegiance to a higherpower?"

More reflect ion."I rekcon you have stumped me

again, paid. Coulu you say it overonce more, and say it slow?" "Well,to simplify somewhat, was he, or ratherhad he been, connected with any organization sequestered from secularconcerns and devoted tj seir-sacnii- ce

in the interests of morality?""All down but nine set 'em upon

the oilier alloy, pard."" nat did 1 understand you to

say?'"Y by, you're most too many for me

you Know. When you get in Williyour left, I hunt grass every time.Every time you draw your till: but 1don't seem to have any luck. - Let'shave a new ileal."

"How. Begin again?""That's it.""Very well. WTas he a gotsl man,

and"'.Thert I see that: don't put up

another chip till I look at my band.A good man, sajs you ? Parti, it ain'tno name for it. He was ihe best manthai ever pard, you would have dotedon that man. lie could lam auy golootof his inches :n America. It was himthat put down the riot last electionbefore it got a start, aud everybodysaid that he was the only man thatcould have done it. He waltzed inwith a trumpet in one hand and aspanner in the other, lie sent four-teen men home on a shutter iu le-- s

than three minutes. He had that riotall broke up and prevented nice beforeanybody ever got a chance to strike abiovv. lie was always tor peace, antlhe would have peace he could notstand disturbance. Pard, he was agreat loss to Ihe tow n. It would pleaseihe laiy.s if you could just chip in some-thing that would do him justice. Hereunite, like when toe Ali ks got tothrowing stones through the Methodist's Sunday school wiudows, Buckfanshaw, all ol his own notion, shutup his saloon and took a couple of sixshooters and mounted guard over theSunday school. Says he, 'Na Irishneed apply!'

Swiiictliing A bent Teeth.

Why, says "Chamber's Journal," dosome people's teeth come out morereadily than others? The reasons forthis are prolwtbly many. AWuit themiddle of last century, i'cter Kalm, aSwetle, visited America, ami wrotesensibly alsiut what he saw. He ob-

served a frequent loss of teeth amongsettlers from Euroie, esiiecially women.After discussing and rejecting manymodes of explanation, he attributed itto hot tea and other hot beverages; anucame to a general conclusion that "hot- -

hibition of Indian scenery, dresses,weaisms, &e , noticed that NorthAmerican Indians have teeththan the whites. He accounts for thedillerence in this strange way thatthe reds keep their mouth shut, where-as the whites keep it oieii. The teeth,he says, require moisture to keep theirsurface in good working order; whenthe mouth is open, the mucous mem-brane has a tendency to dry up, theteeth lose their needed supply of mois-ture, and then comes discoloration,toothache, tic douloureux, decay, loose-ness, and eventual loss of teelh. Mr.Catlin scolds the human race generallyfor being less sensible than the brutesin this respect, and the white race es-

pecially in comparison with the red.We keep our mouths open far too much;the Indian warrior sleeps, hunts andsmiles with his mouth shut, and re-

spires through the nostrils. Amongthe virtues attributed by him to closedlips, one is excellent when you areangry, keep your mouth shut.

EEALD.Dancing and Decollete Dress.

Terpsichore is a sad sight to me ; notbecause Terpsichore dances, for daucingin itself may be as innocent as a bird'sflying; not because she love lieautifulattire,' for exquisite dress is a femininenne art, as meet for a woman as theflower tint or the bird's plumnge. Isigh for the sight of my pretty Terpsichore because the lirst bloom ol her ex-quisite youth is being exhaled aud lostforever in a feverish, false atmosphereof being. Something of delicate sensi-bility, something of unconscious inno-cence, something of freshness of feeling,of purity of soul, is wasted with thefresh young bloom of her cheek in themidnight revel lengthened into morniug ; w asted in tbe heated dance, iu theindigestible feast, in the wild, unhealthyexcitement through which she whirlsnight.after night. Terpsichore in hertattered tarleton dress, creeping to bedin the gray of morning, after havingdanced, all night is a sad sight to seeany one who can see her as she is.Terpsichore's mother would be a saddersightislill, if she were not a vexatiousone. hhe brought back from Hiuropethe notion, which so many of tmr country women think it so fine to bring, that"full dress" is necessary next to nodress. She tells you, in a supreme tonethat admits no denial, that you wouldnot t--o admitted to the drawing roomof a court in Europe unless in fulldress viz : semi-nakedne- ss. Shewould le nothing if not European instyle. Thus, nigbt after night, thismother of grown-u- p daughters andsons appears in crowded assemblies inattire that would befit in outline a childof eight years of age.

Thus in republican Whashington, inglaring drawing-room- s, we are treatedto a study of female anatomy which isappalling. Don't jump to the conclusionthat 1 want ever lady to go to a partyin sum dress, drawn up to her ears;nor that I am so prudish as to think nodress can be modestly as well sis immodestly low. 1 have seen a younggirl's shoulders rise from her muslinfrock as unconsciously and as innocent-ly as the lilies in the garden ; ami Ihave come upon a wife antl motherin apublic assembly so dressed for promis-cuous gaze that I have involuntarilyshut my eyes with shame.

I never saw Lydia Thompson ; but.from what I have heard of her, I havecome to the conclusion that her attireis just as modest as that of many ladieswhom I meet at fashionable parties.They cast up their eyes in horror at thename of joor Lydia Thompson ! Theygo to see Lydia Thomposou ! No, in-

deed? How could theireyes endure theisight of that dreadful woman? Never-ertheles- s,

they themselves otter gratis toa promiscuous company every eveninga sight morrally quite as dreadful. Themen who pay their money to LydiaThompson aud her troupe know thattheir dress and their burlesque,however questionable, make at oncetheir business and their livelihood.They cannot make the same excuse fortheir wives, sisters, antl their sweet-hearts, if they see them scarcely lessmodestly attired in some fashionableball-roo- Remember this: if youever find yourself in such a place, thebest men 111 that room at heart are notdelighted with such displays. Beingmen, they will look at whatever is pre-sent- e'l

to their gaze; more, many willcompliment and flatterthe very womanwhose vanity at heart they pity ordespise; but it will always be with amental reservation, " My wife shouldnever dress like that !"

--mmm - iA Wolverine Romance.

From the Jackson (Mich.) PatriotFive years ago Ira F. Holland, a

young and energetic mau, came to thisstate from the east, and settling downnear Marshall, in Calhouu county, ap-plied himself to farming. It was hishabit to visit a Mr. Hingley, who relsided in tbe city of Marshall, and whcrTwas one of itswealthiest residents, anato deposit with him all his surplusmoney. In this manner, after a coupleof years, young Holland had accumulated some s.uuu, which amount

in the hands of Mr. Biugley.During the visits Holland paid to

the house of Mr. Bingley, he met thedaughter of the latter, a young andvery beautiful girl, who was mostfavorably impressed with him, andafter about three mouths' acquaintancean engagement was agreed on. Buthis hopes were doomed to a terribledisapointinent. The young couplereturned home from a ramble one day,and ns they entered the house of MissBmgley they were met by the father,who w as in a high slate of excitement.He ordered young Holland from thehouse, placing in hi bauds the amountof money left with him, and sternlyforbade 'further intercourse with thefamily.

On the following day Holland wasarrested on the charge of horse steal-ing, and the trial elicitetl sufficientnrtMif to sentence him to state prison.1 1 anneared that a valuable wan ofhorses hail leen stolen from the barnof Mr. Bingley, and had been sold inthe city of Grand Rapids by a manwho answered exactly to the amear-anc- e

of voung Holland, who had beenabsent from home at the time of thesale on business f bis own, as he slatedit. but which, of course, was not credited bv the court. Iu consideration ofhis excellent character Itefore thecrime, the court was lenient, and returned a sentence of three years'

Holland was hastened away to prisonamid his protestations of iuiiocence,and without an opimrtunuy or speaking a word to his betrothed. Wearilydragged on the months to the convict,but at last his term of sentence ex-piie- d,

and he issued forth from hisprison doors, a bowed-dow- n and heartbroken man, his nair wnneneu neioreits lime by the great mental anguishhe had endured. He went to Cleve-land, Ohio, aud there met Alice Bingley. nhe had become an orpnan dur-ing the imprisonment of her lover,and. tired of tbe scenes amid whichshe had suffered so much, removed tof'lpvcland. and was iiviue with hermother s sister. She had adhered withnil a woman's devotedncss to theliirmorv of her convict lover, andnever deemed him guilty of the crime

The Endof'iJrcat Men."

Happening to cast my eyes ujwn aprinted page of miniature portraits, 1

pereei ved that the four personages whooccupied the Tour conspicuous places,were Alexander, llanniltal, Caxnr, nrulBonriiKtrte. I had seen tho same un-

numbered times but never didthe same sensation arise iu my liosom,as my iniud ha-til- y glanced over theirseveral histories.

Alexanrler, after having elimlied thedizzy heights of his ambit ion, and withhis temples bound with chaplets dip-ped in blots! of countless nations, jook-e- d

down upon a conquered world, andwept that there was Dot another worldfor him to eouquer, set a city on fire,and died in a scene of debauch.

Hannibal, after having, to theconsternation of Rome

passed the Alps after having put to'flight the armies of this "mistress oftho worltl," and stripped "three bushels'' of golden rings from the ringers ofher slaughtered knights, and made hervery foundation quake fled irom niscountry, licing haled by those whoonce exultiugly united Lis name tothat of their God and called him Han-nibal and died at last, by poisou administered by bis owu hands, uulamented and unwept, jn a toreign laud.

Ornar, after having conquered eighthundred cities, and dyed his garments111 the Mood of one million of his foes,after having pursued so death the onlyrival he had on earth, was miserablyassiissinated by those he considered asbis nearest friends, and iu that vtryplace, the attainment of which hadbeen his greatest ambition.

JUinnixtrte, whose mandate kingsand popes oleyed, after having filledthe earth with the terror of his nameafter having deluged Europe with tearsaud blood, and clothed the world insackcloth closeil his days in lonelybanishment, almost literally, exiledfrom the worltl, yet where he couldsometimes see his country's bannerwaving over the deep, but whichwould not, or could not bring bun aid !

Thus those four men, who, from ihepeculiar situation of their portraits,seemed to stand as the representativesof all those who the world calls yreat

tlio--e four, who each in turn madethe earlh tremble to its very centre bytheir simple tread, severally died, oneby intoxication, or, as some suppose,bv i.oi8on mingled iu bis wiue one asuicide one murdered by his friends

antl one a lonely exile! "How aretliq mighty fallen!'

The Queen lias gone to-da- y to pay avisit to the Emiieror Napoleon at Chis- -

to the nobility ami gentry" ofEngland that she has started an estab-lishment for "superior and distinguedressmaking" that she has " the latestfashions antl novelties from Fans," andthat "an early inspection is invited."This lady is the wife of that CorsieanM rat whose murder or ine youngFrench ioumalist preceded the fall ofthe Empire as that of the Duehesse tiePraslin tiid the fall of liOtiis Phillipie'smonarchy.

Pierreto bo allowed to marry tbe woman olhis choice, lieeause I tlesire to put itvery modestly because although hestatist w ith touching simplicity he hadnot originally contemplated a matn-mon- al

TheEnqieror would not bear ofsuch a thing."When a man has the honor of bearingsuch a name as your" " there are pnvprieties which one's liouiid to respect!"Pierre returns to the charge. He urgesthat the ladv is of blameless conduct,although of humble birth; and thenunluckily losing his temper he remarksthat if tbe Emperor did talk of Mcaalti-aw- e

there are other Meillhmccs inthe family which areagd dctd lessresiectable. This allusion, I presumemust have sett Ifsi tbe matter. TheEmperor flatly refuse I his consent andclosed the correspondence. So Pierremarried the woman, in spite of 1m-ner- ial

Glass.

Nothing is known to a certainty regarding the invention and early his-tory of glass; but it is supposed, that,as 'the volcanic lavas often cool intocrude crystals, Jibe ancients were induced to mutate them, and so necamemasters of the art. The name "glass"is derived from an old German wordsignifying to shine or glisten. Thatthe Egyptians understood tne manu-facture of glass at an early jieriod isproved by relies found with mummiesmore than three thousand years old,among which are richly carved vasesand uins, paintings on glass, and artificial g ms, 111 w inch amctnysis, emer-alds ami other precious stones, wereimitated so successfully as to deceivethe most practiced eye. For manyyears in ancieut times, glass was aplietl to ornamental purposes only, andmuch ingenuity and skill were exer-cised t( find sulistitutes for the usefulpurposes for which we now employ it;for window s the inhabitant of East-ern countries used linen or patx-- r ren-dered transparent by being soaked inoil; the Chinese shaved bom, splitovster-shcl- ls ; the wealthy Romansthin sheets of agate or mica. AmongIhe Esquimaux f our day large blocksof ice! are inserted ingtheir snow-hu- ts

to admit the light. In the fourthcentury glazed windows were intro-duced into bouses, antl justly consider-ed a great luxury; before the inven-tion of glass mirrors, plates of highly-polishe- d

metal were used, sjecimensof which arc still preserved in manyfamilies as heirlooms. The rich winesof aiitiutiitv were kept in leatherntouches and quaffed from the boms of

animals or irom rougn stoncuta; asthe ait of glass making became morereiicrally

What the Features Indicate.

Giants and dwarfs are gene-rall-

deficient iu this- - respect, and ex-

cessive corpulency or meageruess isM'ldom associated witii mental activity.Aristotle, and Bonaparte, however,were very short. Charles James Foxwas exceedingly fat, Daniel WebsterIroth broad and tall, and Lord Nelsona liviug skeleton.

A large head is generally the ac-

companiment of a great intellect; buta small one with a comparatively ex-

tensive forehead is quite consistentwith mental capacity. Riphacl,('barb's XII., Frederick tho (Jreat andfiord Brougham were illustrations ofthe latter fact.

It is said any nose which isless thanthe bight of the foreheads i an indica-tion of the defective intellectuallowers.

The eyes indicate character ratherby color 1 i an form. The dark blue arefound most commonly in iiersons of agentle and refined character. Lightblue and prey iu the rude and energeticLavator says: "Hazel eyes are themore usual indications of a mind masculine, vigorous and profound ; just asa genius, so called, is almost alwaysassociated with eyes of a yellowishenst bordering on hazel."

The higher the brows use the moretheir possessor is supposisl to under theinfluence of feeling, and thebettercon--trolled by his character.A very small eyebrow is an indica-

tion of want of force of character.A tolerable large mouth is essential

to vigor and energy, and a very smallmouth is indication of weakness andindolence.

In a manly face, the upper lip shouldextend lieyond and dominate the lower,and tlishv litis are oftcner found associated with voluptuous, and meageroms with a passionate nature.

The retreating chin indicates weak-ness, the icrpe-ndicula-

r strength, andI he sharp acutencss of mind.
