OF the regiment voted several times during

make an effort to punish them? The crime

An Honest Deacon.

Deacon N. was an honest old cOdger, a kind
neighbor, and good christian, believing in the
Presbyterian creed to the fullest extent; but
lackaday the deacon would get exceedingly
mellow and almost every Sunday, at dinner,
he would indulge in his favorite cider brandy to
such an extent that it with difficulty that he
reached his pew in the broad aisle near the pull
pit, and between the minister and the Village
Squires. One Sunday morning the parson told
his flock that he would preach sermon touching
many glaring sins so conspicuous among them,
and he hoped they would listen attentively and
not finch he happened to be severe. The af-
ternoon came, and house full; everybody
turned out to hear their neighbors ''dressed
down. by the minister, who after well opening
his sermon, commenced upon the transgressors
with a loud voice, with the question, "where is
the drunkard?" solemn pause succeeded the
inquiry, when up rose Deacon NJ, his face red
from frequent draughts of his favorite drink land
steadying himself as well as he could by the pew
rail, looked up to the parson in a trembling and
piping voice, "Here L am
Of course CONSERVATION in the congregation
was the result of the honest deacons response
however the parson went on with his remarks
as he had written them, commenting severely
upon the drunkard,and closed by warning them
to forsake at their evil habits, ifthey would
flee from the coming wrath. Then the Deacon
made bow and seated himself.
"And now" asked the preacher in his loudest
tones, ''where is the hypocrite?''
A pause, but no one responded. Eyes Were
turned upon this and that man, but the most
chances seemed directed to the Squire's pew, and
indeed the parson seemed to squint hard in that
direction. The deacon saw where the shaft was
aimed or where it should be aimed, and rising
once more, leaned over his pew to the Squire
whom he tapped on the shoulder, and thus ad-
dressed him: "Come Squire, why don't you
stand up?" did when he called on me

Touch NOT MY SISTERS PICTURE.-The fol-
lowing incident was related by rebel prisoner
to an attendant, who by many acts of kindness
had won his confidence
81 was searching for spoils among the dead
and dying upon deserted battlefield, when
discovered small gold locket upon the person
of dying boy, apparently about fifteen years
of age. AS I endeavored to loose it from his
grasp, he opened his languid eyes and implored
me, by all that was good and purely the mem
DRY of my own mother, not to rob him of his
sisters picture. Ohp lit was her last gift
promised her, when she kissed my cheek at part
ing, that would always, wear it next my heart,
in life or death. Then, as if throwing his whole
soul into the plea, he exclaimed -" Oh touch
not my sisters pictured AS the last words fall
tered upon his tongne, his voice hushed in death.
BY the dim light of the stars 1 hastily scooped
shallow grave, and buried him with his sisters
picture lying upon his breast"

satisfied them and soon had the satisfaction of
seeing my guard pretty drunk-too drunk to
walk, and they didn't get up again soon Find

them and said:

precision.
''What you doing here ?'' said the Lieuten-
ant commanding.
[ told him that two of us were guarding q
prisoner, and that my comrade and the prisoner
were so drunk that I could do nothing with
them.
'Thats hell of a story" replied the Lieuten-
ant. II believe you're some id Yankee spy.
I've mind to clip your head off on suspicion"
and he raised his sword.
Let him prove what he says by showing us
the men, suggested one of the squad.
At this they all laughed, supposing that was
bluffed. But when I readily assented to this,
they followed me, cautiously, however, as sup
posed they feared was leading them into an
ambush. When the Lieutenant saw the men
one in butternut and one in Yankee blue-as
had represented, he gave each hearty kick,
and said:
WELL this is a HI of a mess. What do
