GEN. GRANTS WAR HoRsE.-The Gen
eral IS peculiarly proud Of his stud, but is
particularly SO of his war charger. To the
great delight in exhibiting his horse. A
friend Of mine was with Grant one day,
and the conversation turned upon horses.
"Perhaps," said the General, you would
like to see the horse have rode in all the
campaigns that have commanded"
The General ordered his horse to be
brought out. To the surprise of the gen.
tleman the animal seemed no more than a
lady's palfrey. Small, slender, with agile
limbs, black as coal, an eye like hawk,
intelligent, but mild, with the unmistakable
click" on each side Of the name, not unlike
tho "cowlick" on boys head, looking for
all the world like family pet for women
and children. The visitor uttered bis as
tonishment by saying: Beautiful, but no
endurance"
Endurance p said Gen. Grant, 'this
animal exceeds any horseaesh ever saw
for endurance. I have taken this horse out
at daylight and kept in the saddle till dark,
and be came in IS fresh when returned as
when saddled him in the morning. Gold
could not buy him. He was imported from
. race bread by JEFF. Davis himself. He
was taken from JEFF. Davis plantat tion."-
This conversation was held just before Davis
was caught. Il suppose" said the visitor,
"you would exchange this horse for JEFF.
Dayis!" "You have said it," said the
General. II would exchange it for the
rebel chief, but for nothing else under
heaven" Such is the renowned war horse
of the Lieutenant General.

We all went gathering chestnuts, one day,

And Susan, and Jennie, and the two little ones,
All Of us-up whore it's hilly.
Will had basket, and Sue had bag,
And Jane had twostory stocking,
The 'little-ones" each had pocket or two,
And all had deal of loud talking.
The sun shone as bright as it e'er did In juno.
The air seemed the breath Of September,
But yet it was bracing and fresh enough
To give US hint Of November. =.
climbed up the trees. and shook down the burs
Like hailstones ratified the chestnuts,
While every one asked, "did you e'er the like :"
And every one answered with "guess nots."
Will filed his basket, and Sue filled her bag,
And Jane filled her two-story stocking,
And the way that the little ones pockets stuck out
TO stitches was really shocking.
Father and Mother were children,
And did much with joking and laughter
To make that day in the woods to US all
A day to be thought Of thereafter.
And in all coming time where e'er we may stray
When life becomes real and sober,
We shall often recur to the day that we spent,
Gathering chestnuts. when young, in October.
