Some Of these were northern men who h:il
been pressed into the confederate service, and
who said they would rather die taan again 50
into the army.
The rebels at Vicksbugg attempt to keep up
the impression that all who escape return to
| the confederate lines. Ttey even carried s:le
| j1ke so fur as to give Capt. Sample a receipt
| for some thirty whom they said had escaped

oners and had returned. The captain Was
| treated<;4ry politely BY ths rebel authorities,
but WIS not allowed to 20 on shore.

New SoLUTIoN.-Not long since certain quack
wAo looked as wise as owl, was addressed by one
of his patients thus Doctor tell how it is when
we eat and drink, the meat is separated from the
drink ?" Why I will tell you," said the learned
man of pills. You as how there is in the neck
two pipes. one of them to receive the meat and the
other the drink At the top of the pipe is lid, or
elapper, and when we eat this clapper shuts up the
drink pipe and when drink it turns back upon the
meat pipe, see-saw kind of motion. Queer appara-
fuses, assure you" But Doctor, it seems to me
that the clapper must play sharp when we eat pud-
ding and milk

DANCING THEIR RAGS OFF.

Two unsophisticated country lasses visited Niblos
in Now York, during the balled season When the
shortskirted, gossamer-clad nymphs made their ap-
pearance upon the stage, they became restless and
fggety. "oh Annie p exclaimed one, sotto voice.
"Well, Mary ?" 1T amt nice-I don't like it,
Hush p' % don't care, it amt nice, and wonder
that Aunt brought us to such a place" Hush, Ma
ry. the folks will laugh at youn After one or two
filings and pirouette, the blushing Miss said: "Oh,
Annie let go-it amt nice, and don't feel COM
Portable" " Do hush Mary" replied the sister, whose
own face scarlet though it air of determ
ination, it's the first time was at theatre
and suppose it will be the last and just going
to stay it out, if they darce every rag off their
Backs"

ONE DROP AT A TIME.

Have you ever watched an cice as it formed .
You noticed how it froze drop at time until it
was foot long, IF the water was Clean the
icicle remained Clear and sparkled brightly in the
sun; but if the water was but slightly muddy, the
iccle looked FOUL and its beauty entirely spoiled
Just so our characters forming One little thought
and feeling adds its influence. If each thought be
pure and right, the soul will be lovely, and will
sparkle with happiness; but if impure and wrong,
there will be fEal deformity and wretchedness.
