THIRD LDiTIDI. ■random Show. During the past summer, ahandsoun roung man and a mischievous young ady were am ng the guests at a Whi • Mountain hotel. Theyoutigman was tensed hy her friends on account of his habits of lunching just before goiug to bed. One evening he found a larp e ptr tiag of crackers on his tab le. ishly jumping to the conclusion that tbs mischievou young lady had made him t e gift, he went on tiptoe to the door of her room, and tossed a cracker through ihe open transom. Tho room was dark, hut the cracker's fall was fol lowed hy a slight scuffling. He paused a moment anu then threw a second and a third. Each time a rustliug was heard, but no one spoke. Having tossed ihe entire contents of the bag into the room, the young man stols away, and, as he left the corrider, met the young lady com ing to her room. Troubled in hismind, be made inquiries the next morning as to the effect of his bombardment, and learned to his horror that the first cracker thrown had lauded on the head of the young lady's grandmother, infirm old lady of nearly eighty, who was at the moment kneeling hy her bedsideeugaged in her devotions. Much alarmed, she had risen to her tee , Only to receive a second shut.

It is currently reported that consider" able difficulty exists among the Gif mans ami the Germ tn-American school, which, if not soon averted, will have a tendency to break up the school. It is stated that the difficulty originated over the new teacher recently procured whom it is said is incompetent to I he position to which she was appot , ,J. others say that she is well nuali tled, and that the objections raised til rough spite or personal feelings against the instructress. I it view of these differences it is sta led, upon good authority,that the irittee having in charge the recent Volks-fest, fnr the benefit of the school, which netted them about {1,200, refuse to turn over any of the proceeds, until the present teacher is removed, which, fiiiui what could be learned, is not like ly to happen. The committee remain firm in their resolve, and unless some thing is done ere long serious trouble is anticipat 'd. Ill addition to the above, another diffi culty is reported betw Saengerbund and .Joseph Stooekle, the brewer, of this city. From what could lie learned, it appears that at a recent meeting of the Saengerliund a motion was made to exclude Ihe sale of Mr. Stoeckle's beer from the room of tbe as sociation, which was adopted. Heretofore his lieer has been purchas ed on Saturday ami drank on Suuday ill UefTnan Hall, hut owing to some dlf the lienr used at the Volks mi nt are (i oom I hi* Delaware ticuity over . te»t it was deoided to ostracis* Mr. Stoecke aud his beer in the future.
