Big Brlndlc.

In Nashville, many years ago, there resided a
gentleman of great hospitality large fortune, and
though uneduoated possessed OF o hard, Hiotty
lature, and had been also judge of the county
court
His elevation, however, had made him some-
what pompcus, and ne became veIy fond of using
big words. On his farm he had a very large and
| islschevons OK, caned " Big Brindle,'' which fre-
quently bseke down his neighbors' fences, and
committed other aepredaSions, much to the colo
nes annoyance.
| One raoruing after breakfast, in presence o
some gentlemen who had stayed wish him oyel
| night, and who, were now on their way to town
he called to his Oversser, and said to him:
"hIr. Allen, desire you tGs impouai Big Brindie
in order that may hear no more animaaversions
| on his eternal depFedatons."
Allen bowed and walked off, sOrely puzzled tG

mel left iOF town, he went to his wife and asked
hsr what Colonel W. meant by telling him to im
pound the OK. -

4 TROY paper states that, a few weeks
since, a well known gentleman, living
in Mechanicsville, lost an only daugh-
ter-a beautiful, educated, and accom-
plished young lady. She was the pride
and glory of the fathers heart. His an
guish was OF that character which re-
fuses all comfort and consolation. There
was an outward as we'll as an inward
grief, for during the coolest nights, he
would often leave home, go to her
grave. and lie down upon the frozen
clods that covered her remains, uttering
the widest and most heart-rending
lamentations over the tomb OF his dar-
ling. III this way hespent many nights
when not forced or kindly entreated
home by the other members of his
household. The fathers grief was too in
tense for human endurance. Gradually
the strong frame began to show signs Of
decay-the mind to give evidence OF
growing weakness. Three or four days
Since this disconsolate mourner died
literally died Off broken heart.
