columbia Correspondence Charleston Courier
have a great weakness for a good Joke, and
i thinR you will indulge me in telling the fol-
lowing which occurred in the House last night,
The Appropriation b, IL being under considera
ton, certain Representative from Newberry,
who Is 'Sa chrome case in the Legislature, and
whom every one who was connected with that
body for any ten years before the war will re-
memePr as the incarnation OF good hEmor, and
recognized under the familiar name of ssChris, .
moved that an appropriation of three silver
idollars bs made for the wife OF the doorkeeper,
10 her own exclusive use and benefit, The
pitch of the fun lies in An ahecdote, which the
old gentleman referred to, who, by the way, is
gallant old soldier, and has a kindly heart
under pretty rough exterior, tells on him
self
1t seems that some years since, being little
given to cock-fghting, (which he can't help,
a. be halls from Edgefield,) he went TO Ham,
burg. very much against the wishes of his bet
ter half. 70 indulge in his favorite amusement
and indulging little too freely, he lost all b
money and borrowed from a friend TO enable
him TO return home. On arriving at his house
late al night. he went Immediately to his
chamber, aroused his good lady, and was re-
eelved pretty coolly, she suspected, and
justly, that he had gambled away his sub
stance In fact, she refused to speak TO him,
and quietly rolling over in bed, turned her
back on her liege lord. Not at all discomposed.
frisna c. walked to his bureau, opened
his private drawer, and taking out Of his
pocket three silver dollars, the last he had left
commenced dropping them in and stealing
them out, mean while counting one, two, three,
four, five, and so on. Mrs. c. contained
herself under the operation, ignorant of the
deception. until be had reached one hundred
and fifty in his count when utterly unable
TO conceal her qualification at his supposed
game, and anxious TO conciIiate him, she rolled
over with the exclamation, s'Old man, that
blue hen of yours turned out to day a dozen
as pretty chickens as you have ever seen"

DISTURBANCES AT NoIFoLK.-On New
Years day there were several disturbances in
Norfolk, Va, between whites and blacks. The
freedmen had large procession, with music,
speeches, &c, which passed off quietly, but
subsequently scenes of disorder occurred. In
one case five negroes entered the house of a
gentleman named Stephens, alleging that he
was harboring white man who had attacked
one of their comrades. soldier of the Doth
New York (says the Eirginian) arrived, and
passing at the time was attacted by the uproar.
He entered the house. and the inmates re-
quested his protection from the brutality of
negro invaders. His musket was not loaded
but he drew a single barreled pistol and or
dered the five negroes out of the house, threat
ening TO shoot the first who refused to obey his
orders. The negroes went out and procured
large reinforcement, elected the soldier, and
dlsarmed him and placed him in charge of a
portion of the party. The soldier escaped and
ran down the street, but he was headed off by
two negroes on horseback, who came up with
the soldier and compelled him to surrender his
pistol He ran from them, and one Of the
negroes discharged his -barreled revolver
at him, neither of which shots, however, took
effect The soldier came near his camp when
four or five of his comrades held the negroes at
bay until the arrival of larger party of soldiers
under an officer, whereupon the negroes
escaped
