"What ails pupa's tnouf ?" said a sweet little trirl. Her bright laugh revealing her teeth, white an pearl. "I love him, and ki-B him and sit on his knee, But the kisses don't smell good when he kissea ine ! "But, mania" her eyes opened wide as she spoke "Do you like nasty kisses of 'bacco and smoke? They might do for boys, but for ladies and girls I dou't think them nice," as she tossed her bright curls. "Dou't nobody 'a papa have moufs nice and clean? With kixses like yours, mama that's what I mean? I want to kiss papa, I love him so well. Rut kisxes don't taste good that have such a smell ! "Its nasty to smoke, and eat 'bacco, and spit. And the kUses an't good, and an't sweet not a bit !" And her blossom-like face wore a look of dis gust As she gave out her verdict so carnftt and just. Yes, yes, little darling, your wisdom has seen That kisses for daughters and for wives should be clean ; For kisses lose something of nectar and bliss From mouths that are stained and unfit for a kUs. Pfjuihliujjs. "Now then," said a physician, cheerily to a patient, "you have got on just far enough to indulge in a little animal food, and " "No you don't doctor,' interrupted the patient ; "I've suffered' enough on your gruel and slops, and I'd starve sooner than begin on hay and oats." An adroit thief "who abstracted an ostentatiously displayed chec ; for a thousand dollars from the gifts of a Chicago wedding the other day, only to find that the old man's ballance in the bank was four dollars and fifty cents, thinks there is no chance for honest industry in that city. A Wisconsin paper says: "Fond du Lac husbands have organized a crusade, and go about praying with miliners, begging them not to deal out te their wives and daughters the intoxicating spring bonnet and the pocket deplete it;g pork-pie h;.t, with ribbons on a side-dish." Young lady who had been fashiona bly educated was asked by her fund husband to attend to the ordering of the dinner, as he should not have time to go to market. It is a fact that she blandly requested the butcher to send home a ley of tonjue, seventeen pounds of steak, and two halibut." "Pa, what does it mean to be tried by a jury of one's peers?" "It means, my son, that a man is to be tried by a jury composed of men who are his equals on an equality with him, so they will have no prejudices against him." "Then, pa, I suppose you'd have to be tried by a jury of bald-headed men !" "Captain," said a fashionable lady to an old fashioned naval officer, who was about to go through a country dance with her, "Captain, you are perhaps not aware that you have no gloves on." "Oh, never mind, ina'ani,," answered be "never mind. I can wash my hands when we've dohe." Peter Cowlea, of Amherst, Massa chusetts, wants a wife after the follow ing pattern: "I would like a woman that has a sort of a brunette complex ion, dark flowing hair little might curling dimpU'3 in her cheeks, mild, gentle, slow, with pelasatit eye slooking out of her head. I don't want a glass eyed or a lantern-jawed woman, one that is cross as the blazes, and talks all over the town." A Georgian officer was talking to an other soldier, and asked, "Where was you during the war?" The other re plied, "I was twenty-four months in the army, sir." "Yaas; wal, where was you during that time?" "I was twenty four months in the hospital." "And where was you then during the other month?" "I was looking for the hos pital." said the fellow. A young negro boot-black observed a neighbor poring over a newspaper, whereupon he addressed him thus: "Julius, what are you looking at dat paper for? you can't read." "Go away cried the other, indignantly ; guess I can read ; l's big enuff for dat." "Big enuff!" retorted the other, scornfully, "dat ant nufiin. A cow is big enough to catch, mice; but she can't." 'Rouh ami Ready." I was sent with rny brigade to re port to Gen. Taylor on the Rio Grande I put on the most showy uniform I had, and spent much time rigging my self up. Arrived at headquarters "I inquired for Gen. Taylor, and was shown into a tent. Presently entered a hard-featured but still very benevolent-faced man, quite undersized, who would easily have been taken for a wagoner. A great flapping straw hat crowned his head, he had no collar, a linen coat, and his coarse pantaloons had no suspicion of rank, and his un stockinged feet were covered by com mon infantry shoes. "While I was try ing to figure what this apparition could be, he grasped my hand and hear tily exclaimed, 'I'm very glad to see you here, Gen. Shields, and will cut out some work for your command before long.' And this was Zachary Taylor one of the bravest, kindest, and noblest men that ever lived." THE GREAT RIOT! It Reaches St. Louis and Chicago! PROPERTY DESTROYED! It Strikes th jlissouri Riter. St. Louis, July 25. The citizens of St. Louis awakened yesterday morning with a feeling of relief. It se med when they had read the morning papers, that all fear of vi o'ent results from the agitation of the past few days was past. But a gener al feeling of disquietude wa3 noticea ble in all places where men who think themselves the leaders of social organ ization congregate. The anxious ques tion that was passed from lip to lip was, "What will the secret governors of the laborers do?" There was a very apparent general distrust of what this secret society would do, but there was also an equally manifest general de termination to preserve the integrity of society at all hazards. Men seemed to be aware of the gravity of the situ ation, and with this wariness was a universal, but TEMPERATE FIXPRESSION of determination. It seemed during the day that the strikers themselves had become imbued with the idea that they were being made the tools of an unlawful body, and among them the general tenor of conversation was hos tile to tiny submission to the orders of the Commune. Rumors were afloat, and to be heard at all the street cor ners, of a generally contemplated strike among all the industrial classes; and many were the threats of the agents of the Internationalists that this strike should be made the death-knell of all existing conditions of civilization. A noticable feature of this state of affairs was the almost ubiquitous pres ence of men who, in ordinary times, would be deemed lit candidates for the rock-pile. Idlers and vagabonds of all descriptions were to be seen (and smelt) blowing obscene clouds from Qlthy pipes, while they bent their heads to gether in foul conspiracy to burn, kill and destroy. among tiii: kist citizens, by which is meant the honest and in, diistrious classes", there were frequent temperate expressions of sympathy with the men who ;ue supposed to lie suffering from the economical op-, pression of their . employers. But a sentiment of universal deprecation of the incendiary doctrines preached by the lawless and turbulent classes was to be observed. In short.it wa3 plain ly to be seen that, as far as the strik ing employees of the railroads .and their immediate friends are concerned, there was no longer any desire left but to get out of an uncomfortable position with the least loss of self respect. GEN. JEFF. C. DAVIS was to cuine in shortly on a train from Leavenworth, accompanied by a bat teryof artvlery and a full regiment of United States troops. As a counter ir ritant to this information, half a hun dred men around the depot were ready to assure and did assure, the reporter that the train of cars bearing Gen. Davis command had been ditched and could not pjssibly arrive in the city. Where they were ditched and how they were ditched was an entirely different thing. On this subject no one could say anything further than that the "accident" had happened somewhere between Sedalia and Leavenworth. TIIE CANARD, however, was shortly shown in all its deformity, when, about 5:15, a train of the Missouri Pacific rolled into the depot, carrying in its foremost cars Gen. Jeff, C. Davis and his officers, and in the rear two flat cars, on which were stationed the like number of gat tling guns, and some 200 non-commissioned officers and men of the United States Army the 4th infar.try. No sooner had the train come to a stadd-still than a crowd gathered around it. "What you come hre for? You going to fight the strikers?" and a dozen other similar queries were at once addressed to the soldiers by the onlookers. But no quest iotis could ov ercome the diciplined indifference of the United States troops. They only knew two things: 1. They were dusty and thirsty, and 2. They were to obey orders. After awhile the reporter got tired of talking to these impassable boys in blue, and made a raid into Ihf officer's car. Here he found several shoulder strttpped gentlemen, who. his business being explained, treated him with the utmost courtesy, but who, in obedience to the regulations in such cases made and provided, had nothing to offer the news gatherer beyond a courteous "We know nothing." Suddenly a LITTLE MAN IN A DUSTER, and with a most suggestive plaster on his left cheek, appeared upon the scene. "I want to see Gen. Davis," said the reporter. "I'm Gen. Davis," was the abrupt re sponse. "Well General I wan', to know the number of men ou have with you; whether any troops are following, and w hetheryou met with any obstructions on the road. The answeas to these somewhat en cyclopedic questions were epitomized with soldierly brevity. Said the Gen eral, "I've brought 216 men and two Catling guns; my orders are to pro tect the property of the United States and nothing more. You understand me; nothirg more sir, and I want you to put it down in your paper just so." "Certainly General. But don't you expect other men down. "I expect some more men down in the morning. But I want you to be sure and state it just as I tell you. We come down here solely to protect the property of the United States.' With this final dictum thcH General waved the reporter away, and that funcionary of the press speedily sought fresh fields and pastures new for the exercise of his genius. He soon found something whereon to browse. At the time spoken of the soldiers were busy unloading the flat cars of the guns, while a dense crowd of the curious was doing its best to create an obstruction to the work, an obstruction that was perfectly idle and good-humored in its fashion, and which was carefully kept within the bounds of propriety by Col. D. II. Armstrong and a solitary police man. It was funny to observe these peaceable officials industriously doing their duty, while a solemn sentinel marched up and down with his mus ket on his shoulder, and apparently Xerfectly indifferent to anything but having a clear gang way between the guns and the people. TO THE ARSENAL. About fifteen minutes of hard labor sufficed to bring the guns down to ter ra fir ma ar.d to hitch them on the rear of a baggage wagon, into w hich was piled the sundries of a soldier's camp equipment, some two dozen warriors, and the Globe Democrat reporter, who is indebted to Maj. Grimes for the privilege of thus riding down towards the Arsenal. The crowd attending the cortege was generally good humored, though some of its members got off sundry . witticisms on the reporter, some of them cordially inviting him to "iake hold of a musket and prove his manhood." Then came a dusty march down to the Arsenal, in the course of which the officers ordered their men down from their lofty perches on the baggage wagon and made them foot tt through the pulverized macadam, much to their disgust. IN ILLINOIS. THE MOB ATTACK TIIE POLICE. Chicago, July 25. It is reported a mob came in contact with the police on Twenty-second street; that the latter, being assailed with stones and sticks, fired their re volvers over the heads of the crowd and for a time quelled the disturbance. It is also stated that they have been reinforced and will clean out the riot ers. A branch of the crowd went this morning to E. W. Blatchford's white lead and oil works on Fulton and Greek streets, where two hundred men are employed, and demanded that the place be closed up. This being refused they began stoning the building, breaking windows, and committing other depre dations. The latter part of the night passed without trouble of any kind. THE RIOT AT TWENTY-SECOND STREET. The report of a riot at Twenty-second street was correct. But two po licemen were injured, and tliey not se riously. The gang are of about the same material as that of yesterday, and dispersed when the police fired at them. Other branches of the so-called workingmen have scattered all over the town. The Union Stock rolling mills and malleable iron works on the south side have been closed, and their five hundred hands are idle. The mob were making at last accounts for Mc Cormick's great reaper works, and will there meet opposition. A gang are running street cars into the stables on the south side as fast as they come in. The railroads are in statu quo, with passenger trains and mails running. Except in a few cases many who were compelled to quit work yesterday have gone back to-day. The north side mob is the most disorderly and busy, break ing windows wherever resisted. The Phenix distillery has been seized bv them, and the proprietors have called for United State3 troops. Strikers drove the police back from the North Side rolling mills, and they were com pelled to return to their station. Gen. Torance, commanding the militia here, has been notified that many arrests have been made, chiefly of vagabonds and thieves who constitute the crowd. The troops will arive this afternoon from the Indian country. Swearing in of special police is progressing rapidly Some sailors struck last night, but this movement meets with little success. About two hundred anil fifty veterans are now enrolled. Vast numbers are said to be assembling in the lumber j districts. All saloons on the "West Side ' are closed. Many others are also shut j up. There has been no incendiarism yet. Early this morning fifteen or twenty roughs boarded the outgoing train on the Illinois Central and com- J pelled the engineer to back up and re : turn An attempt was made to stop ! the dummy from the stock yards to day, but the conductor, with revolver in hand, defied the mob. The strikers ditched an incoming train from Omaha at Sixteenth street last night, freight cars were thrown off. Two IN CALIFORNIA. AX APPEAL. Sax Francisco, July 20. During the day there has been a stream of citizens pouring into the rooms of the committee of safety and all available force at the disposal of the committee has been doubled or tripled. An appeal has been addressed by Will iam J. Coleman, president of the com mittee, tto workingmen, calling upon them to aid in supression of the riot. Invitations have also been distributed by the committee among all good citi zens, inviting them to attand a meet ing of the committee at Horticultural hall at G:30 p. m. tonight. Resolutions drawn up uy the committee of ten of the peoples reform and anti-Chinese parly will be introduced at the con vention which meets at Crusader's hall, repudiating any connection with rioters and pledging the convention to assist the authorities in preservation of order. CHICAGO. a battle in progress. Special dispatch to the Bee. Chicago, July 25.-3:15 p. m. The climax is approaching. There has been street fighting since last night. The First regiment, a company of veterans of the G. A. It. and a section of artil lery have been ordered to the front. The mob holds control from Sixteenth and Halsted streets to the city limits. As fast as they are driven back they col lect in other places and move up. So far five policemen have been wounded two it is thought, fatally. Five com munists have been killed. A lively time is expected to-night. PI1ILDELPIIIA. MILITIA disdandment. Phildelpiiia, July 20. The lGth regiment lias been disban ed for cowardice and mutinous con duct in furnishing ammunition to rio ters of Reading on the 21th. Fifteen thousand men were dispersed by the police at Frankfort and York streets last night. PITTSBURG, PA. PROSPECTS OF A GREAT FAMINE Pittsburg, July 2G. Pittsburg lies under the overhang ing shadow of a great famine. The P. C. railroad will certainly not yield, and until the back of the strike is bro ken no provisions can reach the city. The papers do not mention the fact that troops are concentrating, and the country presents the appearance of an army encamped. This force can be thrown into the city by railroads in an hour. OMAHA. EFFECT OF TIIE STRIKE. is beginning to be pretty generally felt in Omaha, ami is becoming mora se rious from day to day. Business of all kinds is fast seeking stagnation basis, owing to the freight blocade that has extended all over the country. A re porter of the Bee yesterday took occa sion to call on some of the leading wholesale houses and business men to learn to what extent they were being effected by the strike. Among the wholesale grocers he called on Morgan & Gallagher, Pundt, Meyer & Raapke, Whitney, Clark & Co., ar.d Steele & Johnson, and J. J. Brown & Bros., and was informed by all of them that they had large lots of goods on the road all the time, and of course the strike was consequently interfering with their business, although they were? filling orders for the west as usual and doing quite a lively trade in that direction. They had received no goods for the last two or three days, and it would not be long before their stocks would be broken in certain staple articles, especially sugar, a scarcity in which is already being felt.

Other articles that were in equal de mand would soon be played cut' ACROSS TIIE ATLANTIC. WHAT IS THOUGHT or TIIE STRIKE. New York, July 2G. A cable from London says extraor dinary anxiety is felt in all ciicles con cerning the distui bances in the United States. The suddenness, rapidity and general extent of the strikes aro regarded as surprising and unexam pled. The strikes have made a deep and more painful impression in En gland than any event since the out break of the war in 1861. As yet neither the English people or newspa pers have been able to form any clear" theory or realization as to the cause of the outWeak. The Daily Telegraph, however, thinks that the corruption and mismanagement of railway man agers have given to employes the temp tations and opportunity. The effect of the strike must be calamities to American interests abroad. The Herald's correspondent at Ber lin telegraphs that intense interest pre vails in the German capital regarding the strke. Most of the papers have daily editorials on the subject. The Socialist's leaders are loud in their eulogies of the iaartyred Molly Ma guires, and to show their sympathy for the strikers have opened subscriptions in their favor. SATURDAY MORNING'S NEWS."

Sound Advice to the Business Men of the Country. New York Tribune. Recent news from Europe does nut indicate a speedy termination of llu war; on the contrary, it warrants the belief that shipments of grain from th'. Black Sea will be very small and that the enormous consumption of product will sensibly affect demand and price, in European markets. POSSIBLE UNFAVORABLE EFFECTS O THE WAR.
