A Coon under the Crinoline.

We witnessed an amusing incii
dent on one of our suburban streets
last Saturday. A fashionable young
lady, got up in the highest style Of
the miliner's art and arrayed in
all the glory of five dollar q yard
silk. a twenty dollar bonnet, and q
three hundred dollar shawl, was
majestically sweeping along in the
direction of the fair ground, while
just behind little boy was leadi
ing q pet coon.
A countryman in a brown slouchf
ed hat and linsey. y.woolsey 'war-
mus came along, followed bys
"yallah" dog, whose nose was
SCARED diagonally and transverse.
ly with the scare of many a ferceI
ly contested battle with members
of the raccoon family. "Tige" no
sooner saw the ringtailed represen-
tative of his ancient enemy than
he made frantic dive for him, &C.
companied by a furious bark.
Cooney comprehended the situa-
tion at aglance bolted incontinent.
ly, and sought a sanctuary beneath
the ample circumference of the
young lady's circumference.
The young lady screamed, while
the dog made rapid circles, snuff.
ing the air, and evidently bewil.
dered to know what had become
of the coon. The situation of the
young lady was critical and em.
barrassing. She was afraid to
move for fear the coon would bite,
and the coon declined to leave his
retreat until the dog had retired.
Finally the dog WAS stoned of,
the boy dragged the coon from his
hiding place, and the young lady
went her way with the lively con-
sciousness of having experienced q
new sensation. As for the coon he
was instantly killed.-Md.J Journal.

A Cheap Homemade Gate.

In our trips through Vermont
We have seen gates that We're made
in a manner very similar to the
following direction, which we co.
py from the Ohio Farmer. Accord
ing to our recollection of the Yer.
mont style the long strips are thin.
ner and nailed on beth sides ofthe
end pieces and brace, opposite to
each other, of course, and the
hinge end'piece was considerable
longer than the latch end. Such
light gates may be easily opened
and shut, although not entirely
supported by the hinges.
take five pieces of inch boards,
each ten feet long, one of these
eight inches wide for the bottom
strip, and each of the others four
inches wide. | then take one piece
four inches wide tor one end up.
right, and one piece eight inches
wide for the end piece where the
hinges are TO be. These end strips
are four feet long, that being high
enough for any gate for ordinary
purposes. Now lay down your
end piece, then place the eight itch
wide and ten foot long strip for
bottom, nail it at each end to the
upright with wrought nails, now
take three of the four inch wide
strips and lay them on parallel!
With the bottom one, dividing the
spaces go as to leave four inches
between the lower two boards, and
six inches each space between the
upper ones; nail as before. Noy
turn the gate over, and take rel
naming strip, lay it at an angle
from the bottrm, at the hinge end,
to the top, at the latch end cut it
so that it will fit in and lay close
to the long strips; nail it thor.
oughIy. Now hang with hinges
and You have gate that is light,
and will not sag, and just as per-
feet against cattle as one made BY
ajoiner, and costing from three t6
five dollars. Any person can put
together and harg such a gate in
two hours.

How the Negro Soldiers are to be Uni
formed.

Cast of uniforms, to the number of
four or five hundred thousand suits
are lying piled up in Government
depots in Richmond and elsewhere
White soldiers have an objection
to being served with this clothing
no matter how neat and clean, and
it has heretofore been q question
how to dispose OF this immense
stock 50 as to make 1t available to
meet existing wants. The oppor,
tunity is at last presented. II is
admitted that the negro is to be,
come q military element in the
Confederate army. This accumu.
lation of secondhand clothing will
equip him from top to toe, and save
that Of putting a musket in his
hands, and there are thousands of
them to be had. Hurry up the
negro. and let him get into the old
clothes as soon as possible. -sno
