and strikes the western continent at Beh.

GENERAL FoRREST'S SPEECH AT THE
RATIFICATION MEETING IN MEMPHIS.-Mr.
President and Gcntlcmcn,-l thank you
for the honor conferred upon me tonight
in selecting me as your presiding officer.
You will allow me to say that am far
more familiar with the stern duties Of q
soldier than | am with the art of public
speaking. 1t is known to most of you that
my life has been one of action rather than
of words. Nor has it been my habit to
take any leading part in the direction of
political and public affairs. But the occa-
sion of this evening is one of no ordinary
Importance. You have assembled to eX-
press your appreciation or disapprobation
of the principles of public policy and con-
Stitutional government declared in the re-
solutions and addresses sent forth to the
American people by the late Philadelphia
Convention. If the principles therein
cnunciatcd shall be sustained by the
American people, and particularly by
majority Of the trecmcn of the northern
States, then the States and the people of
the South will be speedily restored to civil
and constitutional liberty. If know my
self, this is the anxious desire of my heart.
have carefully read and considered the
address and the principles of public policy
and constitutional law therein contained,
and without regard to the language in
which they stand expressed, they meet my
full, unrcservcd, and cordial approval.
When pledged my word and my honor
to the lost cause OF the late Contcdcracy
supposed that no one who knew me ever
doubted the honesty and good faith with
which they would be redeemed and when
now accept the result of the war as ire
vocable, as | have accepted them, and
pledge my word and faith to the support
of the great principles declared to the
world by the Philadelphia Convention, as
now do, that VOW and that faith shall be
equally constant and Interchangeable.
There is one thing | will say in regard
to the soldiers Of the North and the South
the men who have met each other in the
stern shock of battle, and conflict Of
arms that tried their courage and their
souls-if these grave matters were referred
to them, these States could be instantly
restored TO their former relations, their
people to the right of representation in
Congress, and all sections of the Union to
Guietude and friendship.

with an air Of satisfaction put it on his

with such all article, to which the reply
was to cut open pockets with.
"Ah,'' replied the jeweller, doubtless
in amazement, "'how can you do such

The performer replied that his art con-
sisted in diverling the attention of people
from everything that looked like design
upon them; that he rubbed his forehead.

A COOP H1r.-Charies Lamb used to
relate with great glce, that his theological
investigations were exhausted in deyislne
4 scheme for equalizing punishment after
death. This he proposed to do by having
a special hell for Scotchmen, in which the
birthstone should be left opt, thereby con.
signing them in double sense to the old
scratch. F"
Some chap out West has, however, i'm
proved upon Lambs conceit, and narrates
the following story, somewhat at the ex.

IIe says he dreamed that he once made
visit to inferno, and while engaged in
conversation with the proprietor, all imp
announced that the Pennsylvania radical
was at the door seeking admittance. Cd

aim entrance, ON The ground that he
would be continually disturbing the peace
and order of the place. Tho imp soon
returned, saying that Thad. insisted on
coming in, declaring that he had no other
place to go to.
After considerable anxious reflection
Old Nick's face suddenly frightened as
with a new idea, and he exclaimed, "rve

A CANTON to Young Hen.

A young medical student from Michi-
gan, who had been attending lectures in
New York for sometime, and considered
himself very good:looking and fascina,
ting, made deadly onset on the heart
and fortune of a young lady who was
boarding in the same house with him..
After prolonged siege, the lady surren-
dered. They were married on Wednes-
day morning. The same afternoon the
young wife" sent for and exhibited to
the astonished student, q g beautiful little
daughter" three and half years of age.
GOOD heavens then you were wild
ow." exclaimed the astonised student.
"Yes, my dear, and this is Amelia, my
Youngest; tomorrow, Augustus, James
and Reuben will arrive from the country,
and then shall have ali my children: TO-
gether once more"
The unhappy student replied not .
word his feelings were too deep for ut,
eerance. The next day the "darlings
arrived. Reuben was six years old
James nine, and Augustus sancy boy
IF twelve. They were delighted to heal
that they had "new papa" becaussthey
could now live at home and have all til,
playthings they wanted The "new papa,
4s soon as he could speak, remarked thai
Augustus and James did uot much re
semble Reuben asd Amelia.
"Well, no." said the happy mother
"my first husband WAS quite ditfeEen
style of man from my second-complex
ion, temperament, color of hair and eye
i-all different"
This was TOO much. He had not only
married widow, but WAS her third hus
band, and the astonishcd step-father o
| four children.
| "But her fortune" thought he, "tha
| will make amends" lie spoke of he
fortune.
.These are my treasures" says she il
the Roman matron style, pointing to he
children.
The conceit was now quite taken ou
of the Michigander, who, finding that III
had made a complete goose of himself, a
once retired to farm in his native State
where he could have q chance to render
his "boys" useful, and make them swea
for the deceit practiced upon him by thei
mother.-SpringieId Republican.
