A LrAR.-Among the many anecdotes
OF Buena Vista one beats all others. An
Arkansas soldier being wounded, asked
an Irishman to take him off the field.
The latter did so by assisting him to
mount and strapping him on his horse,
the lrishman riding before. During the
ride the wounded Arkansian bad his head
cut of by cannon ball, unknown to his
companion: Arriving at the surgeons
quarters, the freshman was asked what
be wanted,
II brought this man to have his leg
dressed" said Pat.
Why replied the surgeon, "his
head is shot OFF,
1.-The bloody Harp exclaimed Pat,
locking behind him; "ho told me he
was shot ia tho leg"

w no Saw the Steer.

The richest thing of the season came
off the other day in the neighborhood Of
the Market. The greenest Jonathan
imaginable, decked out in SLOUGH hat,
long blue frock and pair Of cowhide
shoes, big as gondolas, with a huge whip
under his arm, stalked into billiard sa-
loon, where half dozen persons were
improving the time in trudling round
the worries, and after recovering from
his first surprise, at the, to him, singular
aspects Of the room, inquired if "any Of
'em had seen a stray steer" affirming
that the "blasted critter got away as he
came through taoru with his drove 10th
er day, and he hadn't seen nutbin' on
him since" The bloods denied all
knowledge Of the animal in question, and
with much sly winkin al each other, pro-
ceeded to condole with him on his loss 10

the game with much interest, as he evil

All hands now began to praise him,
which so elated him that he began TO
think himself . second Phelan, and he
actually offered to bet dollar with his
opponent, which, of course, he lost. The
lpss and the laugh SO irritated him that
he offered TO play another game and
bet two dollars, which he pulled out Of
a big roll--for it seems his cattle had
sold well, and he was quite flush. This
bet he also lost, as the fool might have
known he would, when,as mad as March
hare, be pulled out fifty spot, the largest
bill he had, and offered TO bet that on an
other game. The crowd mustered

out Of his own roll besides. They sent
for famous player, who happened to
have money enough to bet with, and ar
other game was played, which Jonathan
also won. Another hundred was also
raised and bet and won and it was not
until he had blundered through half a
dozen games, and by some unaccount, :
Jlc rnn of luck won them all, draining the
pockets of his opponents of some four
hundred dollars, that they began to smell

got tired of talking, Gawkey pulled Oh
his frock over his head, took his whip
under his arm, and walked quietly out,
turning round at tie door, and remark
ing, Gentleman, if you should happen

"A New Lubric and Varnish.-Ueyone,

calling OF the same time, first that its
principal element is the essence Of ca

EFFECT OF RAILROADS ON WOMEN. -
When railroads were only thought of as
inpossibilities, Coleridge wrote thus pro-
phelically as to their future effect upon
women:
whether it is that women have a pas
sion for nursing, or from whatever cause,
they invariably discourage all attempts
to seek for health itself beyond their own
abode. When balloons, or those new
roads, upon which they say it will be
possible TO travel fifteen miles an hour.
for a day together, shall become the com
mon mode Of travelling. women will be
come more locomotive f; the health of all
classes will be materially benefited
Women ten will spend less time in at.
firing themselves-will invent some more
simple he ad gear, or dispense with it al
together.
But if Coleridge should be called agar
TO life, and behold not only the locomo
tive, but the (skirt) balloon in it, ant
the woman inside of all, going it, at til,
rate oil 40, and sometimes 2.4O, wha
would be his surprise

"a Tail Holt:
