The Tom Marshall story Correct


A few years since Tom Marshall was de-
in Buffalo, when some in the hall every few
moments shouted, Louder! louder!" Tom
stood it for awhile, but at last turning grave
~ to the presiding officer, he said: Mr..
Chalmun, at the last day. when the angel
shall, with his golden trumpet, proclaim
that time shall be no more, doubt not, sir,
that there will be in that vast crowd, as
now, some drunken fool from Buffalo,
shouting, Louder lonler!" the house
roarcd. Tom went on with his speech, but
there were no mere cries of louder. -
JoaUndl Of (ommao,.
Our respectable cotemporary is mistaken.
which is the rarcst occurrence in the world
where jokes are concerned. The event de-
scrbed occurred in Cincinnati, ON the oc-
casion of the opening OF the Ohio and Mis-
sissppi Railroad in the summer Of 1857.
A vast crowd had collected on the front
steps OF the Bmnrt house, and Marshall,
tolerably drunk, dressed in scedy black
frock coat and white hat, with weed on
it, was caught and forced to make a speech.
Some one in the throng shouted ironically,
hear, hear" as the Kentucky orator
rounded one of his periods. He famed
with Indignation. II hear contemplate
voice crying hear, hear" he exclaimed;
II have no doubt that at the last dread day
account, when the great whire throne is set
up, and all the race and families of men are
brought together for judgment, there will
be, as the unchangeable decree is pronounc-
cd, some damned fool in the audience who
will squeak out hear, hear!''' Tie re-
markable oratorical genius of Marshal was
never more surprising than as he spoke OF
of the great white throne; the whole sky
seemed to be glowing with the dazzling
spcndor of the apocalyptic vision. ..

A Good Joke ON Sherman.

While marching through Georgia, Gcncr
al Sherman travelled with the left wing, un-
der General Slocum. After long and
wcarisome march he one day crossed over
to the right wing, under Geucral Howard.
While in General Howard Gent, whichhad
just been .nitahad, the Medical Director came
in,- well acquainted with the,habits and>eus-
toms of both. General Sherman sometimes
takes glass, y while General Howard is
strongly opposed to the indulgence. Know
ing this, the medical gentlemen, wishing to
serve his chief without offense to Howard,
said:
General Sherman, you look weary and
i'll. If you will come over to my tent will
give you a Seidlitz Powder, which | have no
doubt will do you good. - .. ....
Thank you" readily responded Tecum-
sch, Il think viii, -
The man of physic departed, and General
Howard, who took everything literally, ran
to his valise and got q powder, which he
mixed and handed to Sherman. ....
There is no need to so away for one, if
that is what you want, said he. and Sher-
man, inwardIy chagrincd, but highly anus.
ed, drank the cup mantully, to the mirth OF
several bystanders, who comprchended the
whole magnitude of the joke at glance.

The Cap and tEae Book.

When the children have read the follow

whether they have any such feeling, or
whether they ever do such things. ''....
Amos and Andrew were little boys, and,
Fanny sent two presents to them-one a
little soldiers cap, and the other a book
but did not tell who was to Lave the cap,
and who the book. ..... ..
Upon their father showing tie presents to
the boys, both of them looked at the cap as
if each wanted it.

presents up. .......... ..

the cane-bottom chair. You hear no sound
but the 'click, click" Of the hand work
and the whole scene reminds one of the fig
ures in puppet show or the characters in
pantomime. A woman with the tooth
ache, in answer to inquiries as to what y
the matter, " states her ills concisely, and
then propounds, "How is Governor Brough

prompted by selfshness, as the woman
wanted the Governor to get well that she
might be pardoned. Her inquiry answered,
she subsidies again into an automaton, and
the shutting sound of busy hands is all you
hear. This is broken by something very
like baby laugh, aud you turn, surprised
to see, wreathed in smiles, a baby face, and
see pair of baby hands maneuvering in

what shall be the future life? Shall the
mothers crimes be visited on the child?-
The mother, who has been an inmate of the
prison about six months, charged with
crime, commenced life all well, but is to
end it, perhaps, in prison; the babe, inno-

with your smiles, and turn we to another
scene. Here is a woman in the last stages
of consumption, slowly dying. Poor unfor-
tunate, with no friends or relatives outside,
she is TO die in this prison. Calmly she
talks of death and of sins that have been
pardoned. She was of respectable family
in New York, went down all the giadations
Of crime, became hard case, and lived for
many years with negro in Cleveland, and,
charged with grand larceny, was sentenced

can never be satisfied short Of enjoyment in
