GENERAL LEE AND HIS CHICkENS.-A
Southern writer, who describes in a letter
from Petersburg, 10 the Mobile Advertiser
what he saw between Richm Dad and Peters
burg. says:
General Lee was in his tent, Which IS bv
no means q pretcntious one. ;.t the time orour
visit, and NY cousin and myself strolled by in
order to get q lool; at him. The old fellow
was seated in q split bottom chair. engaged in
reading one of the morning papers through
pair of srec,acles. The back Of his head was
turned to u. 50 that we we're hardly paid for
the result o. our sly observations. Not far
from the great captains tent, the inside Of
which looked very clean and cOzy, was his
ambulance, and under il number Of chick
ems were picking about. One Of them,
cock. is SAID TO be Il great pet of the General,
who has had him from the beginning Of tie
war, and carries him wherever he goes. !
suspect the secret of this apparent whim is
nothing more than Il very rational desire for
fresh laid eggs for breakfast, for tie rooster is
not deprived of his harem. General Beaure-
gard pet is fine mich COW, which shares
all his campaigns and is most indispensa-
bic companions his health being 50 delicate
that he can eat little else besides milk and
bread.

showing with blackboard and chalk, how the
bee was made. He had just finished it by
putting in the sting, when little fellow, who
had been watching the process most closely,
spoke up
Mr. Dunnen?'
!'Wbat. my boy?"
"Din't bod make the bee -
ayes. certainly. God made the bee"
The little fellow was silent minute when
he spoke again
" Mr. Dunnen?'
"Well, what now, my son ~
~ was thinking said the young philoso-
pher, how bod could put the sting into the
bee without ditting his fingers stung before
he let it do
