The following story we find going the
rounds Of the press:
few years ago, friend of ours was
out on fishing excursion. and after the
fa,igues Of the day were nearly endured
whether with anything more than fish
mans luck we know not--he entered
public house in neighboring town for
refreshments. He there encountered a
garru!ous old man. who had done his
country some service in the revolution,
with whom he fell into conversation
The old man was poor, he said, and ex
paiiated so feelingly upon the inconven-
fences of bis poverty, that our friend, who
is always benevolen,ly inclined, was con.
siderably moved. 1t was not then re
garded sinful thing TO drink a glass of
toddy. especially upon fishing excursion
indeed il was matter almost universally
admitted that the fish wouldn't bite unless
there was bottle of blackstrap along.
and so he asked the old man to drink.
Thank you Captain said the old
man, and the drinks were despatched.
Our friend had ordered dinner, and
when it wa. ready he invited the old hero
to dine with him.
i declare. Major,' said he, you are
very kind don't care if do
After dinner cigar was handed him,
with the request that he would join in
social smoke.
well, now, Colonel. 1 DO declare you
are very generous.
Conversation went on-ihe old hero
fought his battles over and over again,
and was very happy.
Come my old hearty said our old
friend, let US take a little something more
before we part
General said the old man, you are
too generous, but as you say cam, re.

Our friend then extended his hand, on
taking his leave, and in grasping ,ha, Of
the old hero, he deposited half dollar7
What is that for?'
'Oh.' said our friend, 1T will help YOU
along little, in the rough journey of
life, and am very glad of an opportunity
TO do kindness to one Of the men who
fought for the liberty we enjoy
This was too much for the old man.
The tears started to his eyes. and he
could only utter, almost choked with
emotion

the terrible fire Of the enemy, three drum

all that was left to them. Soon the two
stronger ones went TO .fslicuffs,' while
the third quietly folded his arms. awaiting
the issue of the contest. AT that moment

them both. With one bound the lille
fellow caught the drum from between
them, and with shout Of triumph, and a
loud tattoo dashed forward to the thickes,

An interesting wonder in Astronomy.

are strongly inclined to the opinion, lha.

quence of some inaccuracy Of observation
