gJ~A Cincinnati paper tells of the adj
ventures Of young man from the East,
who came to that situation for a situa-
ton, but who drank Porkopolis whisky,
ran out of money, and, selling his outfit,
started for New Orleans, resolved to be
a man. On the steamer MEL" fell
among thieves, was robbed, and at New
Orleans spent some time in the Charity
Hospital. Recovering, he started on
foot for his home in Boston, and reached
Red River, whence he took a steamer
for Memphis, but was put off at Natchez,
where he became a hostler. The news
of the Harper's Ferry affair reached Nat
chez, and he was accused of being an
Abolition emissary. He ran away to
Memphis, thence footed it to Cairo, en-
during all sorts of hardships, and thence
walked to Paris, Illinois, where he found
friends, who ministered to his every
want, and ''put him on his feet again"

feet silence is the only way some per-

the figure of g300 or $3.50; and if two
