A GENEROUS CoUNTRyMAN.-A pleasing
incident is related by the Pittsburg Gazette.
Three of the volunteers, just returned from
Mexico, and rather poor looking, were pass
ing through the market, and observing
countryman, with some very fine summer
apples to sell, one of them asked him the
price. The vender rather coolly replied
81 don't sell apples to the like of your
The indignant volunteers drew themselves
up, and demanded the reason, asserting that
they were able to pay for them. 81 don't
sell apples to returned volunteers" replied
the countryman, with tear glistening in
his eye, and placing his broad hand upon
his breast. "my heart warns towards them
wherever see them should be ashamed
to sell them apples-.ake as many as you
want, and may God bless you wherever you
may CO." The delighted volunteers re-
warded the counttyman by accepting of his
apples, and with delighted counlenances
went on their way. A warm and honest
heart beat in that mans bosom.
