General Bravo for the Season.

HNIIE undersigned takes this occasion to offer to the | farmers and planters of Johnson county and the surrounding counties an opportunity for raising from this celebrated jack, the finest the best conditioned and most durable mules in the country. This jack fifteen and half hands high and about seven years old was purchased about four years ago. by billiard Hardwicke of Granville Pillow, Tenn, who assured the purchaser that he was in every way very supe- rior animal; and this past experience has abundant y proven. He will be stood for the present season, on the premises alone of Dr. Hardwicke on reasona be and accommodating terms.
 To those who have ennets, he would state that the "range' here and in the vicinity is excellent, and those owning this species of stock, would b. subject ed to but little expense for keeping.

From the Boston Atlas. Charge of the Paul Pry Brigade.

Up stairs, and down stairs,
 Through the house onward, In closet and clothes press peeped
 Not quite hundred Searching and peeping, went
 Not quite a hundred; With six committee men,
 Ten others blundered. "Forward," the chairman cries, "Search all the nunneries, Onward ye gallant spies,
 Not quite hundred." Forward each bold Paul Pry, Courtesy, decency, With us are all your eye.'
 Who cares who blundered? No one here dares reply, No one but women nigh. Then rouse your courage high, Into each corner spy,
 Though not quite hundred" Ladies to right of them, Ladies to left of them, Ladies in front of them,
 Trembled and wondered; Nothing could they oppose, To the invading foes, Roaming where'er they choose, Frying with eye and nose,
 Not quite hundred. Opening closets bare, Tossing the dresses there, Gallant and debonair, Fumbling at rosaries,
 Whilst ladies wondered Where such gallants were bred; Into the chapel sped Heroes with hat on head Pious hearts shrunk with dread,
 Not quite hundred. Ladies to right of them, Ladies to left of them, Ladies in front of them,
 Trembled and wondered; What cared these valient men? These noble daring men? Harmed them not lady's fear, Harmed them not lady's tear, Theirs was mission high, Into each corner pry,
 Not quite a hundred. When can their glory fade? 0 the brave charge they made?
 While ladies wondered, Honor the charge they made, Honor Paul Pry's brigade,
 Not quite hundred.
