PLAYING "OLD SLEpoEn FOR A BABY

PLAYING "OLD SLEDGE" FOR BABY
On the mountain, near the summit, lives
woman, who, albeit, not possessed of many
goods and chattels, has plentiful supply of
offspring. Some two or three weeks ago
genteel-looking young woman called upon
her, having in her arms fine red-cheeked,
chubby-faced boy, about nine months DID,
She asked the lady of the house for permis-
sion to lay her child upon the bed, while she
made sundry and divers calls This the kind
hearted woman readily granted and the moth
er departed. The day passed away, and a
week followed. but no mother made her ap-
pearance. In short, the child~as left on the
woman's hands. In view of the fact that she
was bountifully blest with babies of her own.
the woman looked to see what disposition she
could make of the young stranger. The cir
cumstance naturally created some talk in the
neighborhood, and strange as it may seem,
two childless gentlemen met at the house at
the same time, both for the avowed purpose
of relieving her by adopting the child. Here
was dilemma. Both had equal claims, and
both were equally capable os raising the
young stranger. The claimants waxed warm
and words ran high, aud the little fat fellow
who was kicking up his legs and growing, on
the bed, came near being the innocent cause
OF belGgerent set-to. Reason, however,
came to the aid of A., and he proposed
single game of "old sledge" or "seven up"
to decide who should take the boy. A Ia
bic was set out, an old greasy deck of cards
produced, and at it they went. The cards
were cut, shuffled and dealt, and by dint of
close playing A. made three points. Again
the same operation was gone through with,
and B. made three points. Another deal
and A. made two points more, leaving him
two to 60. Another deal, and B. made three
points, leaving him one to 60. A. now dealt,
and turned a jack, leaving him also one to 90;
B. stood on the king, and won the game;
then seizing the baby he hugged him in his
arms, and the new "daddy" marched off in
triumph.
Who can conjecture in what part of life's
drama may yet be performed by the boy that
was won at a game of old sledge?'

A CHAPTER ON GUMpTIoN."-The word
gumption, derived from the old Saxon gy-
meme or gyn'an, to observe or be careful, is
not generally found in our dictionaries, tho
OF comparatively common use. Lest some
doubts as to its signifcation should prevail,
an exchange has volunteered an illustration
eft its meaning. He says:
When farmer pays taxes on five hundred
acres of untitled and unfenced land covered
with blackberry bushes, when he might de-
rive more profit from half dozen properly
cultivated, he is not burdened with much
gumption.
When young man, just setting up in bu-
siness, keeps horse and carriage at an ex-
pense of two dollars per day, and fails in six
months, when he might walk for nothing, and
continue his business in safety, you may be
assured that he lacks gumption.
The person who deals Justly, loves mercy,
walks humbly, and pays for his ne~spaper,
is the one above all others in this world, who
exhibits the largest share of gunaption.

The BLOOM OF AGE.-A good woman nev-
er grows old. Years pass away, but if be-
nevolence and virtue dwell in her heart, she
is as cheerful as when the spring of life first
opened to her view. When we look upon a
good woman, we never think of her age; she
looks as charming as when the rose of youth
first bloomed upon her cheek. That rose has
not faded yet; it will never fade. In her
neighborhood she is the friend and benefac-
tor. Who does not respect and love the wo-
man who passed her days and nights in acts
of kindness and mercy? We repeat, such a
woman cannot grow old. She will always
be fresh and buoyant in spirits, and active in
every deed of mercy and benevolence. II
your lady desires to retain the bloom and
beauty Of youth let her not yield to the sway
of fashion and folly; let her heartily love
truth and virtue, and to the close of life she
will retain those feelings which now make
life appear a garden of sweets-ever fresh
and ever new.

"A REMARKABLE DREAM.-Every body in
Alleghany county knows old lawyer Martin.
lie had the coolest way in the world of trans
ferrlng money from the pockets of his clients
to bis own. Old Ben Brooks, a rich but close
listed farmer in the neighborhood, was one
OF his clients, and in their conferences there
was always pretty sharp contest who should
outwit the other, the lawyer in the end gen.
orally getting the upper hand. One day
they had been sitting for an hour or two, try
ing their wits to get the advantage of each
other, when the farmer excited, and sudden
ly turning to the lawyer said:
"Martin, had remarkable dream last
night"
"Ah! had you," said Martin, "what was
it?"

RUSSIAN DISCIPLINE relates
the following:
"When the palace of the Emperor at St.
Petersburg was burnt few days ago, Greek
priest, at the imminent risk of his life, rush
ed through the burning apartments to save
crucifix from private chapel. On his re-
turn he was hailed by sentinel, who had
been stationed at the door, and forgotten

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FEVER IN Non

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FEVER IN NOR
FoLK.-A letter writer from Norfolk says:
at is now conceded by all of our physi-
clans that the fever has become epidemic
throughout the entire city, and that no part,
even to some distance beyond the suburbs, is
exempt from the infection. AS proof of
this, independent of the new cases that are
occurring in every quarter, every one, almost
without exception, complains Of occasional
nausea and wandering pains in the head,
back, and limbs. Some constitutions may
90 through the season of acclimation with
this slight affection, while others, whose sys-
TENS are weaker or more predisposed to the
disease, will have to succumb and pass thro'
the crisis of the fever. Another characters
tic of the epidemic is that every countenance
universally is tinged with a sickly, sallow hue,
plainly showing the deleterious effects of the
poisonous malaria they are constantly inhal-
ing Yellow fever is certainly one of the
strangest diseases that mortal flesh is heir to
its attacks are more varied and it assumes
more protean forms and sudden changes du-
ring the process of the disease, than any 9th
er. Generally it comes on with chill and
severe pain in the head, just over the eyes,
and back. Then again very little pain will
be felt, and the patient will 90 about until
his body gives way from feelings of exhaus-
ton, and he goes to bed to fall into a coma
tous state, and so die. His pulse, singular to
say, in the meanwhile, until within short
time of his death, will be as strong and reg
ular as that of well man. and he will lay
quietly like one in drowsy state from the ef-
fects of morphine. Several cases of this kind
have occurred recently, and it was noticed
that the pulse of Mayor Woods was perfectly
firm and regular until two or three hours be-
fore his death. Others on the contrary, will
have no pulse at ALL not even perceptible
pulsation of the heart, and yet be calm and
sensible, and live in that state two days.
This was the case with Mr.. Robert Hurst, on
Cumberland street, whose death was reported
two or three days since. Some have the
black vomit by vomiting upward; with 9th
ers it passes through the bowels by purging.

we would wait until they were ready to fly
then we would catch them iu our hats, as
they hoped among the grass, and we would
make cage with perch in it, and they
would sit "all in row thereon" and sing a
quartette for our delectation; and build nests
of their own, and live very cozily there in a
cage; and there was only one reason why
they did not, and could not do this; our black
cat-a plague on all cats made breakfast
upon one of them, and Dolly Ann, our hired
girl,' slipped one of the shingle Stats aside
while we were at school, and when we return
ed there had been grand Jail delivery, and
the prison was tenantlesss. But when we
learned how happy they were, as they unfurl-

air, and how they sang as we never heard
them, in the top of the poplar, we felt some
what consoled at the loss, and good deal

EXECUTION OF $500 CHINESE REBELS,
NEAR CANroN.-Mr. Silas E. Burrows, Jr,
who has just returned to this city, after an
absence Of nearly two years, the greater por-
ton of which time he spent in China, was an
eyewitness to the execution of thirty-fv
hundred Chinese rebels, who were taken pris-
oners in the battle near Canton in the month
of March last. The prisoners were taken to
low, marshy island, and there each was
compelled to undergo form of trial before
tribunal of Mandarians, and each was SEN
fenced to death by decapitation. One by one
they were led forth to the execution ground,
large space covered with sawdust to the
depth of several inches. To give greater
degree of awful effect to the scene, an eleva-
ted platform was erected, consisting of sin
gle narrow plank, over which each unhappy
victim had to pass in full view of his fellow
captives, whose terms of existence, whether
an hour or day, depended entirely upon the
will of their captors. The prisoners mani
tested the most stolid Indifference to every
thing connected with the scene, apparently as
unconscious of their terrible fate as dumb
brutes going to the shambles. Arriving at
the execution ground, the captives fell upon
their knees, and bending forward calmly a.
waited the single stroke of the executioners
sword that severed head and trunk-body
and soul. There were no shrieks of terror
no supplications for pardon or mercy. From
the moment of capture the captive knew his
doom, and sullenly awaited its accomplish
