ANOTHER HORSE STORY.

A keeper Of hotel not fifty miles from Bos-
ton is, or was, famous man for horscs-owled
many, and was always ready for a trade in such
cattle. He was sharp at bargain, and was
never known to make move that didn't count
on his side, until the following happened, that
proved an exception to the rule. lie always
had some particular horse on hand for every
particular emergency of trade, and the adroit-
ness of his operation in putting off beast, was
q subject for delighted approval on all hands
among connoisseurs of that delightful and much
abused animal, the horse. No one ever traded
with Staie that did not confess himself satisi-
cd, through satisfaction being Ia titudinal word,
did not always mean that the satisfaction was
the ultimate of happiness in the tradc--lke the
same term in connection with tt .e duello
There was u jolly cobbler W hose name was
Wax, that occupied small shol } near the hotel,
to whom Staille was acoustic med to refer in
case of any stick in ?. transaction, and lie being
q disinterested lnan, would Ge eide on the mat
ter of difference, always, ho wever, by what
was deemed strange fatality, deciding in favor
Of Static Some, however, went so far as to
intin,2 te that Staffle and the cobbler had talked
the matter over previously, and had certain
signs by which they unders toe d each other.
4. When the stick came, t men Static would say
"Wcll, well, We can't get a long any further. Now
Pm willing to leave it out to j. third party, and
as Mr.. Wax, round the c. ,rner, knows the value
of the horse of | am s. eapping with you, he
will be us good and cane id an arbter as we car
find, and guess will call Him." Mr. WaH
would accordingly ccm out, leather apron and
all, and, after looking at the matter canddly
would decide that Sta file receive a smart con
sideration as the diDe renee in value, and tln'
would settle it nine tines in ten.
One day there Game along a stranger with
pretty good horse, :.nd it was at once the obIec
Of Staflle's interest. He examined the horse Il
all his points, and Diet ermined to have linn
The determination wo .ked itself up to posi-
tive fever by the next morning, and when tn
strangers horse was Led out to be harnesses
Stailie stepped up an asked the owner, wh'
was looking on seei ng that the harness wa
properly adjusted, if he didn't want to swal
horses.
The stranger tol i him hc hadn't the leas
objection, provides he could make little some
| thing out Of it.
"Wel," said Ir. Staillc 81 am glad to hea
you say so. Jo IN, bring out the red colt"
The red colt, ,vas accordingly trotted out. IT
! name was 10 isnomer. 1t was one of thos
animals that, b aving been called colt whel
legtimately or titled to tie appelation, had for
feited it by Il &c offence Of age, and was nov
sailing under false colors The stranger locke
at the colts nd gave whistle as he saw th
discrepancy ,etweeu the age and tue title.

HUGH SWINTON LAGARE.

Now that the remains of this gifted South
Carolinian have been COMMITTED, or are about
to be committed to the soil of his native State,
the following allusion to him will be perused with
interest. Tbeextract is from R. Barnwell Rhetts
Grafton on Calhoun:
"Hugh S. Legare was q man of too much
heart for politics His French temperament,
quick to resent, yet easy to forgive warm, guile.
less and confding, rendered him too unhappy
and too disappointed when tossed on the boiste-
rous and adverse waves of public life. He had
none of that cold patience or buoyant hope,
which often makes disaster the occasion of after
rejoicing, or defeat the means Of awakening new
and higher energies. Iet.he had a genius capa.
bic of mastering every science-an industry
which traveledwith untiring steps over the whole
domain Of literature-and o spirit Of blazing III.
tensity, which drew to itself aud consumed all
that was great or truthful or beautiful in the
thoughts Of other men. How often did his orn-
tory resound in this hall-fling US with admi-
ration at its pure and deep cadences? Vigorous
thought, clothed in the drapery of the warmest
and most nervous language, and borne on the
wings of lofty and impetuous spirit character:
lied his striking powers in debate. Alas! the
eagle fell as he reached the mountain topl He
died on the very summit, where his glorious
scholarship, mighty attainments, and brilliant &c:
niuSwould have made him name amongst the
greatest statesmen of the world. Although he
deemed himself sighted and wrongsd by his
native State, he turned to her, to the last with a
full and yearning heart. t.ss.

THE OLD FOLKS ARE GONE.
Far, far in distant lands I've wander'd,
Sadly and lone,
My heat was ever turning southwark,
To all the dear ones at home;
Here, after all my weary roaming,
At early dawn,
I've come and find the cot still standing,
But, oh, the Old Folks are gone.
CuoRUs.-Hcre wander sad and lonely,
In the dear old home,
Those that loved so well aud fondly,
All, all the old folks arc gone.
Here's where I frolick'd with my brother
Under the tree,
Here's where knclt beside my mother,
From care and sorrow free.
Still sing the little birds as sweetly,
At night and morn,
Still runs the little brook as sweetly,
But 0, the old folks are gone.
Here wander sad and lonely, &c.
Down where the old bananas waving,
They're laid to rest,
Where Swanee's peaceful waters laving
The green turf DER their breast;
But there's home know, where parting
Never can come;
Oh, for that home I must be starting,
There's where the old folks are gone.
Here wander sad and lonely, &c.

IF YOUR FOOT IS PRETTY, SHOW IT.

IF YOUR FOOT IS PRETTY, SHOW IT.
If your foot is pretty show it
No matter where nor when;
Let all fair maidens know it,
The foot takes all the men.
The face so fair and lovely,
May charm the gaZcr's eye;
But if the foot is homely,
He'll quickly pass her by.
If your foot is pretty show it,
When you trip along the street;
For il will catch the eager eyes
Of every man you meet;
Don't toss your glossy ringlets,
Nor pout your lips so sweet,
But gently lift your pctticoats,
And show your handsome feet.
If your foot is pretty, showit,
At concert, ball and fair;
For the small pedal index,
Tells WHERE your GRAcEs are.
The figure may deceive me,
All hoopcd and padded o'er;
But let my eye survey the foot,
ask to sec no moro.
If your foot is pretty show it,
If you wish to catch the beauS,
No longer hide the te!l-tale charm
Beneath so many clothes.
A graceful foot betrayS form,
OF rare and faultless grace; u
Full, rounded limbs it doth reveal,
For FANcY's eye to trace.
If your foot is pretty, show it,
Yes show it when you can;
Twill help your other lovely cha rms,
To win some nice young man.
The practicel eye may well distrust
A nicely PADDED BREAST;
But when it rests upon your foot,
1t KNOWS Of ALL THE REST.
