THE BANKER AND TIE SArLoR.-When Mr..
Hankey was in vogue as London banker, a
sailor had, as a part of his pay, draft on him
for fifty pounds. This the sailor thought an
immense sum, and calling at the house, insisted
on seeing the master in private. This was at
length accedcd TO, and when the banker and
sailor met together the following conversation
ensued:-"Mr. Hankey," says the sailor, "Ive
got ticker for you-didn't like to expose you
before the lads" THAT was kind. Pray what's
the tickler?" "Never mind; don't be afraid |
won't hurt you-tis fifty" "Ah that's tick
Ter indeed.' "Dont fret; give me five pounds
now, and the rest at so much-per week. shan'i
mention il TO ANYBODY"

An army of $4,000 men, according to an esti-
mate of an army officer, consume daily 80 tons
10 cwt. of provisions alone; thus requiring 800
horses to carry food enough to support them for
the first four days-assuming that, they them
selves could carry the first three days food-and
800 horses to carry the food needed every day
afterwards. Thus, 1900 tons of prov sions
should be sent with an army commencing a
weeks march. Then, baggage and ammunition
would require at least as much more carrying
material, and cavalry ten times as much. So
that an army of 10000, properly supplied and
having A small proportion of horse-soldiers,
would need the services of over one thousand
horses drawing ton each, for single days
necessaries.

UNPLEASANT ADVENTURE IN a HUCKLEBER-

were out "huckleberrying" in Dudley, one day
last week, a lad ON pulling aside bush observed

erect, ready for spring lie called compOn.-

just as the reptile--who was then singing his
song of warning-made a jump, brought it
down forcibly upon his back. Blow followed
blow, but the snake did not loose his hold and
on examination it was found that he was dead
but the langs had penetrated the lads panta-
looms, and stuck in his boot leg. The skin had
not been touched. The party, especially the
