THE SELLERS SOLD.

A few years ago, an ltinerant peddler
became tired of tramping round after his
customers, and, hiring shop in a coun-
try village for day or two, issued a
quantity of flaming handbils, and vigor-
ously commenced the sale of his wares
by public auct on. His loud and inces-
SAINT ''going, going" attracted numerous
bidders, and, at the same time, exasper.
ated to the highest degree the feeling of
the two or three traders permanently To-
Gated in the place, who considered this
new course of proceeding an unwarranta-
BILE infringement of their time honered
monopoly. They anxiously conferred
together, and at last hit upon the idea of
prosecuting the peddler for selling with-
out licsese, and were not long in find :
ing person TO 60 forward and put the
plan in execution. This person proceed
ed at once to the place where where the
enterprisng intruder was SO actively
knocking off his notions, and PROFOUND
ed to him the startling inquiry whether
be had license to sell? The peddler
hurried.y replied that he bad not, and
hurried on with his sales. He was now
in for it, and the informer fastened to
magistrate, obtained warrant. and with
out delay had up the contumacious
vender before his honor for trial, After
che proofs had been put 10 to show the
offence of selling, and the admission of the
peddler that he had no license, he was
called on for his defence, when to the as
constituent Of his prosecutor, he calmly
drew from his picket and exhibited to
the court a regular peddler's license, duly
granted to HIM upon payment of regu-
lar sum, and was, of course, at once ac-
quilted of the charge.
The prosecutor looked around in be-
wildered amazement, but after he had
sufficiently recovered from surprise, he
began to give vent to his wrath by up
raiding the peddler in the tal.est terms
for his talsehood.
"WhaL wrong have / done9' cried the
peddler. "You asked me if / had license
to sell. and | told you had not. l do

THE CAVALRY HORSE

The cavalry horse is quite as familiar
with the long list of varying trumpet sig
nails as the rider himself he stops in
stantly when the signal for hating is
sounded passes from walk to trop,
from trot to gallop, without requiring
any reminded from spur to rein. If his
rider fall in battle, or lose his stirrups,
he stops In moment, and waits for him
if he remains lying on the ground
he stoops his head, smell at him, and
whea he ascertains that there is no hope
of his remounting, makes his way back
to his troop, wedges himself in his place
in the ranks, and shares afterwards in the
movements of the rest. Music has an
amazing influence over him. If an air be
suddenly struck up, you will see the worn
out and MORALLY tired horse raise his sick
head, prick up his ears, become animated,
and move briskly forward to the front.
During halt, OF when Iuartered for
the night, the cavalry division stretched
on the ground, lies sleeping oonfusedly
together a jumbled mass. which it would
be impossible to disentangle men and
horse side by side, the rider using his
horse as pillow, or rolling himself be.
side it to shield himself from the cold, the
faithful creature seldom changing the Do.
sition it has once taken. If it does SO,
it is with the greatest precaution first it
moves its head and legs, endeavoring
gently to free itself then it rises or turns
itself very slowly and carefully, so as no
to trample upon or disturb those who
surround it. If the halt axes place
where the ground is wet Or frozen, the
rider will gladly force his horse to one
side after it has lain down awhile, which
by that time is warm If not dry.
The most affectionate relationship sub.
sists between man and horse, as the re-
suit of their thus living together. The
animal seems to understand everything
connected with his rider; he knows his
masters step, his peculiar ways; knows
how to seek him out from among others !;
isa faithful, disinterested companion and
friend t, him, and has this advantage over
many another good comrade--that he
does not grow weary even Of suffering for
him. q
