Speaking of Josephs, we once heard
of several wives making up purse to
be given to the one of their number
whose husband should chance to have
the most illnstrious name. The first
commenced /: My husbands name is
William" Then followed long list
of all the Williams whose names had
been handed down to posterity, COM
mencing with William tn, conqueror,
and ending with Shakespeare. The
second: my husbands name is
George ;" and all the Georges, good,
had or Indifferent, were brought up as
a proof of his right to the purse. The
third chimed in with I" Henry" urging
her claims as eloquently as the rest ;
whilst the fourth, a meek little crea-
turc, with no pretcnsions whatever,
quietly remarked Well, my hus.
bands name is Joseph, and ! don't
think | ever heard of single Joseph
who distinguished hmself-unless it
was Joseph, told Of in the Bible, who
wrcstlcd with Potiphar's wife; and l
certainly think he aeas the biggest fool
that erer Hred." 1t is needless to add
that the purse was delivered to the
last speaker, without a murmur.

Judge Williams Excavator.

Our citizens had an opportunity oil
witnessing the operation of this ma.
chine, on Tuesday last. twas brought
here on Monday for the purpose of
working on the east end OF the branch.
The Eat afforded good place to ex-
hibit it's powers; and every man who
had curiosity enough to drive him to
a half mile walk, went and saw.
The excavator standing still struck
us as complicated machine while
working it produced exactly contrary
opinion. 1t does the work does it
well; and at rate which fifty men,
and several teams with complement
of plows and scrapcrs could not equal !;
and that, too, by using the services of
only two men. and three spans OF hor-
ses. Any one can see what an i'm
mense saving of labor is thus secured.
1t is used either for wasting or Dor.
rowing-filling or cutting. In this
case the work was most filling, with
only a short cut. The machine was
driving along the outside stakes and
n continuous stream of earth was
poured out of the carrier to a point a
few feet past the centre Of the intend
ed track--passing thus up one side. II
performed a like operation in return
ing. II can be used to load wagons
in other places where heavy fills are
required. We asked the Judge how
many teams it could keep in employ
ment and his answer was that they
had never been able TO get teams
enough to do the work, and therefore
he could not tell. A few figures
would demonstrate the problem, how
ever. A team will move it, say at
the rate of three miles an hour; and
the machine excavates a strip about
one foot wide and three inches deep.
In short, it will cut, remove. and de-
post between sixty and seventy Gu.
bic feet Of earth per minute while in
motion, at the rate of three miles an
hour. For snch work as it was called
upon to do, on Tuesday, the machine

Jeff. Davis in Prison.

Yesterday morning Davis complain
ed of being sick, and expressed a wish
TO see a physician. The officer of the
day, after consulting the proper au-
thoritiess told4his prisoner that doc
tor would be allowed him.
The real reason Of Davis desire for
a physician became apparent when
his noontide meal was served to him.
The murderer of our prisoners is fed
on the regular army rations, precisely
Of the same quantity and quality as is

JEFF. has not partaken of this food
with any apparent relish. AT noon,
yesterday, he threw his soup, bread
and meat from him, exclaiming in a
loud and angry voice. that he was
not accustomed to such living, and
would not put up with H."
The officer and his guards on duty
within the cell looked on in quiet sur
prise. Davis became yet more irate,
and strobe up and down his cell, ex.
claiming that he was to be murdered.
At one time he endcavored to de-

Not only was JEFF. imperious and
naughty, as usual, but he became alb
solutely obstreperous, insulting the
guard, abusing tue officers and their
Government, throwing his food at his
attendants, and tearing a secession
passion to tatters generally-some-
times threatening others, sometimes
mechanically counting a bayonet
puncture of his own breast. .f.n
AS necessity (and possibly as a
punishment and warning orders were
given to place manacles on his feet.
The Captain in charge, attended by
a blacksmith and manacles, approach
ed, saying "Mr. Davis, have a
very unpleasant duty to perform. !"
"My God |" exclaimed jeff, you
don't intend TO put those things on
me-" Such we're the orders the Cap
tain could only obey. JEFF. remonstra.
ted They should never be put on.
The Captain must go to Gen. Halleck
and have the order countermanded.
The Captain replied, "But, MIR. Davis,
the order came from Gen. Halleck."
Davis insisted that the order must
be countermanded. The Captain said,
"You are military man, Mr.. Davis
and know that my only course is-te
obey orders" JEFF. then went off in {
more towering passion than before
and declared he would never be iron
ed alive. After becoming littl
cool, and mechanically placing on
foot on a stool, the Captain told til
blacksmith to proceed. :.

JEFF seized him, and with vigorou
push tumbled him backward on tn
floor, while the blacksmith, justly in

President but missed him. Davis
then attempted to seize a gun, ant
asked to be bayoneted. The guard
presented bayonets, and the Captain
feared be might rush upon them, AM
ordered the guard to fall back.
The Captain then called in fou
stout men, and ordered them to lay
jeff. on his bnnk, which they did, the
prisoner resisting with almost prefer.
natural strength, and writing in their
grasp while the blacksmith hammer
ed on the rivet with will. When
placed in his chair again jeff. looked
in utter despair upon his manacled
limbs and burst into tears.

paratively docile, far less defiant. but
more depressed and the irons have
since been removed.
