RIG BRTNDLE,

In Nashville, many years ago, there
resided a gentleman of great hoSpltall
ty, large fortune and though uneduca>
ted. possessed of hard knot sense. Col
w. had been elected to the Legislature,
and had also been Judge of the county
court. His elevation, however, made
him somewhat pompous, and he be-
came very fond of using big words
On his farm he had a large mische-
vious OK, called "Big Brindle,' which
frequently broke down his neighbors
fences, and committed other depreda-
tions much to the Coils annoyance.
One morning, after breakfast in
presence of some large gentlemen who
had stayed with him over night, and
we're now on their way to town, he
called his overseer and said to him:
"Mr. Allen, desire you to impound
Big Brindle, in order that | may hear
no more animadversions on his eter-
nal depredations.'
Allen bowed and walked of, sorely
puzzled to know what the Colonel
So after Col. w. left for town he
went to his wife and asked her what
Col. w meant by telling him to lm>
pound the OK.
"Why," said she, ''the Col. meant
to tell you to put him in pen"
Allen left TO perform the feat for it
was no inconsiderabIe one, as the ami
NAL was very wild and vicious, and
after great deal Of trouble and vexa>
ton he succeeded.
"WeIl," said he, wiping the persplN
ration from his brow, soliloquizing,
this is impounding is it? Now | am
dead sure the old Colonel will ask me
if I impound Big Brindle, and | bet
I'll puzzle him as bad as he did me.o.t
The next day the Colonel gave a
dinner and as he was not arlstocratIc,
Allen, the overseer, sat down with the
company. After the second or third
glass was discussed, the Col, turned
to the overseer, and said a
"Eh, Mr.. Allen, did you lmpound
Big Brindle, sir?"
Allen Strengthened himself, and
looking around at the company said
tYes, | did; but old Brindle trans
cended the impannel Of the impound,
and scatterlophisticated all over the
anI1aoirnitv If the fOreSt.n s5' "
/ The company burst into an lrnInod
crate fit of laughter, while the Colo
neI's face redeemed with.discomfiture.
s'What do you mean by that slr!'-.
said he 's
why, 1 mean, Colonel, said Allen,
that old BrindIe being drognostieated
with an idea of the cholery, ripped
and feared, snorted, paved dirt, jump
ed the fence, tuck to the woods, and
would not be impounded no how.'
This was too much; the company
roared again, in which the Colonel
was forced to join, and in the midst OF
the laughter, Allen left the table, say
ing to himselfas he vent
~ reckon the Colonel won I ask me
to impound any more oxen.
