KNEW How TO TRAvEL.-A sharp fell
low, somewhat destitute of the "needful,'' .
got on railroad train not long since, de-
termined to ''do" the Company out of ride.
His deficiency in greenbacks had prevented
his pull chasing a ticket, but he took his seat
in the cars and, seeing the Conductor
about to enter to collect his fare, stuck bis
head out of the window and seemed to be
attcntively watching something beside the
track. The conductor approached and tap
ping him on the shoulder, demanded his
ticket. The man drew his head in hastily
and in so doing managed to knock of his
hat and before he could recover his compo-
sure it was mile behind the flying train
The conductor again asked for his ticket
when the fellow declared, with an air of
injured innocence, that his ticket had been
stuck in his hatband and was left behind
with the hat. He told his story with such
assurance that the conductor not only car
ried him free to his place of destination,
but when arrived took him to Harper's Hat
Store on Main street and bought him one
of those new and fashionable hats for which
the establishment is Justly famed. Their
stock is large and we'll selected and can
not fail to suit all customers.

event which can befall, many gallant pen-
fleman will be low in the dust whose ain
gle life could not be paid By thousand of
tho base rabble rout be holds at bay. Yet
after al, it is also felt that this Richmond
is our city, and that no living creature must
be permitted to enter it against our will;
and that il any enemy do come 10, II cannot
be save over our dead bodies; and that now
even as in old time, il is honorable and
even delightful (both d,lce and decoryml to
die for our country. What q contrast, is
this We have sketched between The spirit
and attitude Of the two people now in
presence upon this soil. The ono race
crazy with greediness and intoxicated with
. sense Of brute power in their numbers and
material resources, furiously striving to
crush out Of existence . people who have
never wronged them, and exulting with
loud, senseless glee in the near approach Of
the day that will crown with success the
foule,t national crime in history;-on the
other side, community Of high spirited
freemen, seeking nothing in the world that
is not theirs, doing and aiming to do nei'
ther hurt nor harm to any fellow creature,
standing upin defense Of their own hesrths
and homes, sternly silent In the simple
might of their own manhood, with the sn-
tique hero'sm that in oil ages have impell-
ed brave men to endure and dare all things
for country and honor. Looking upon
which contrast, and deeply pen strated with
its significance, let every man say with ell
his heart, may God defend the right!
