CoSFouNDED.-The Chicago Times OF
February 26lh contains the following
item as special dispatch from Washing
ton:
"The House Judiciary Committee
have considered at length the impeach-
ment case of Judge Miller of Iowa. When
they meet again. an effort will be made to
settle the matter definitely
This is another wilful mistake as to
the man. The Miller against whom the
impeachment case is pending, is Hon. A
e. Miller, Judge Of the District Court Of
the United States, and not against Sam
uei /. Miller of our city. 1t makes it
very annoying for Judge Milller's friends
to have him con!ounded with the Wis
consin Copperhead Judge of the same
surname, and this is not the first time
that the sins of this gentleman have been
laid at his door.

Hers comes home beneath the starlight,
Ne'er cares she;
Mine comes home 10 the purple twilight,

A highly instructive as well as amusing
incident took place, in one Of the business
houses, on one Of the principal streets OF
Nashville, a few weeks since, whiic cOlorel
regiment was marching along TO the music
Of the national airs. Several gentlemen
were looking on the parade, among them a
wealthy planter of Alabama, who is large
stakeholder. One Of the group stepped
out to the door, looked on for a few minutes,
and then indignantly turning on his heel,
addressed himself to the grave Albanian,
to the following purport:
swell, I'll be Id, if that is not a
burning disgrace, which no decent white
man can tolerate. Isn't that nigger regi-
ment too great an insult y
The Alabamian jumped to his feet, and
replied while his eyes flashed fire:
"Sir, there is not negro in that regi-
ment who is not better man than rebel
to this Government, and for whom have
not thousand times more respect than l
have for a traitor to his country. / think
that the best possible use the Government
can make Of negroes is to take them and
make them fght against the rebels. No
traitor is too good to be killed by negro,
no weapon too severe to use against the
wretches who are cndcavoring to overthrow
the Government. Now sir, swallow that,
whether you like il or not"
The rebel darted of in utter amusement
without uttering syllable Of reply, leaving
the stu dy Alabamian, who cherished the
jewel Of patriotism as something more pre-
cious than aocks Of slaves, 9 alone in his
glory
A certain green customer, who was q
stranger TO mirrors, and who stepped into
the cabin Of an ocean steamer, confronted
large pier glass, which he nlistook for q
door, and said:
Isay, mister, when does the boat start ?"
Getting no reply from the dumb reflection
before him, he repeated:
81 say, mister, when does this here boat
start!"
Incensed at tho still silent figure, he broke
out:
\ $50 to thunder! you darned sassafrass.
colored, shock-hea led bull calf; you don't
look as il you knew much, anyhow"
Kingsley gives his evidence on thesubject
Of childhood, and thus declares There is
no pleasure that have experienced like a
child's midsummer holiday-the time,
mean, when two or three Of US used to 60
away up the brook, and take our dinners
with us, and come home at night tired,
dirty, happy, scratched beyond recognition,
, 1864-01-09

until after dinner, when she went up stairs
with him, and gave him leave to select
full and comfortable suit for the poor boy.
George shouldered the bundle, and took
in his other hand tin pail, full Of dinner,
for the destitute family.
You are good boy" said his aunt.
GOOD! I'm not good I've not got
spark Of good in me" said he.
My child, how you speak toyour aunt ~
said his mother, gently, laying her hand on
his head.
81 know it, mother" he answered, in a
gentle tone; "Oh! | know it, and it is
rough in me. Aunt, will you forgive me
for speaking so?"
"Go," said aunt and mother, both smil-
ing.
II have had a good visit, said George, on
his return, bringing home serious, Thought
full and sofiened look with him. "Jed could
not speak he only looked and looked his
mother did the thanking. did not want
thanks; only it seemed to do hergood. Jed
grabbed my hand when l came of, and
squeezed it so. 'SOme time or other, said
he,-and that was oil he could say"
Twenty years or more passed away, and a
poor miner was taken from one Of the Sac
ramento boats and landed in San Francisco.
Poor, friendIess and sick, he was scarcely
able to walk, and sat down on box of goods
under a shed. In the hurry, nobody no
ticed him, or, noticing him. thought it worth
while to inquire into his misfortunes. At
last, when the hustle began to lull, n couple
of men came along.
"There that poor fellow they sail
he is never likely to see his home again.
"Who is it?' asked third.
"Don't know his namc," an 'wered one.
Maxwell, l think" said the other
MAXWELL dOwn-eas;er."
Tho name attracted the attention of a
stranger, who stood on the wharf looking
over an invoice of goods.
Maxwell" he looked up and said,
Maxwell! where ?"
They pointed him to the sick man, who
seemed to have fallen asleep. lie went To-
ward him. ......
"a good deal older than any Maxwell l
ever knew, he said. "Nlaxwell, Maxwell"
he repeated, half aloud-and the name
seemed to food him with memories which
took him far, fur back to his boyhood again.
MAXWELL he said again; and again was
drawn to the poor miner. Your name is
Maxwell" 7" he said, seeing him awake.
"That is my name, sir-George Max
well, answered the man, wrecked on for
lorn coast"

what a suit q clothes Came to

.ns. ). 80
a poor boy in our school who l wish had
some Of my clothes. The boys call him
Pinch, he looks so pinched; but he is real
clean-his knees and elbows arc so well
patched. He was dreadfally cold in school
to-day; ! know he was, he kept shivering
so." 3
"The poor do not suffer half so much
from cold rs we think they do" said his
aunt; "thcy got used to it,
Let's sec you try Il" cried George.
"Hush, my son." said his mother.
"Well, mother, just as IL flesh and blood
would not feel such weather as this, with
only q thin piece Of cloth between them.
Aunt is covered with flannel from head to
foot; no wonder she doesn't know what
cold is.'
George and his aunt were not apt to
agree, and the worst Of il was they did not
agree 70 disagree.
What is the boy name besides Pinch 7"
asked his mother.
"Jed Little. guess he has no father,
and l don't know where he lives. l only
know he is good fellow, and real pitifui
this weather. 4
Wei" said Mrs. Maxwell, "if you can
do anything for him, ! shall be very glad
to have you"
"GoOd," cried George, turning to his
book again "before tomorrow night III
take the shlver out Of poor Jed, It 1 can.
he could now study better.
jed was not at school the next forenoon.
George asked where he lived. None Of
the boys knew--none, at least that he asked.
After school the master told him, and away
he scamPcrsd 70 tind him. It was in an
old block Of buildings in another part Of
the town, which ne made q business 70
search through and through when he got
there. Presently there was tap Ut one Of
the basement windows, and George espisd
jed 9 face at one cf tho squares.
+" Halo, jed 3 cried he.
jed came 70 the door and peeped out.
!" where are you bound down here! !" ne
asked. :.
Looking up you, old schoolfellow, " said
George. Y @.t,
/" Mother q lining my old tFowsers, and
I've got nothing TO wear while she is doing
il" said the boy; "lcan't 80 out, 50 you
come in"
George went into the small room where
the Littles lived-a poor widow with four
children, whom the long and severe winter
was pinching to the very extent OF their
scanty means. Such box Of q stove,
George thought, and about porringer Of
potatoes; and jed with old summer pants
on and blanket over his shoulders-while
his mother was basting strips Of flannel in
