swallow the white of one or two raw eggs.
or a cup of strong coffee. These two are
antidotes for a greater number of poisons
than any dozen other articles known, with
the advantage of their being always on
hand. If they cannot be had, pint of
sweet oil. lamp oil, ''driPpings." melted
butter, or lard, are good substitutes, esPe-

Home Conversation.

SChildren hunger perpetualIy for ideas,
and the most pleasant way of reception is
by tbs voice and ear, not the printed page.
The one mode is natural, the other artificial.
Who would not rather listen than read?-
An audience will listen closely from the be-
ginning to the end of an address which not
one in twenty of those present would read
with the same attention. This is emphali-
cally true of children. They will learn with
pleasure from the lips of parents what they
deem drudgery to study in the book; and
even if they have the misfortune to
prived of the educational advantages
they desire, they csenot fail to grow up in
telli gent if they enjoy in childhood and
youth the privileges of listening daily to
the conversation of intelligent people. Let
parents, then, talk we'll at home.

The Ladies, Nan.

By his air and gait, the ultra-fashionable
style of his clothing, the killing curl of his
hair and mustache, the 'look and die'' ex-
preston of his simpering face, his stream
of small talk, and sundry other signs and
tokens of plethora of vanity and a lack of
soul and brain, you may distinguish at
glance the individual who plumes himself
a ''lades' man." His belief in his own
responsibility is written all over him.
And to say the truth, your ladies' men have
some grounds for their self-cOneeit It is
indubitable that girls do sometime fall in
love, or who suppose they love, fellows
who look as if they had walked out of
tailor's fashion plates--creatures that by the
aid of the various artists who contribute to
the "make up Of human popinjays have
been converted into superb examples of
what art can affect in the way of giving
man an unmauly appearance. The woman
who marries one of these fatterers is to be
pitied; for if she has any glimmering of
common sense, and a heart, she will soon
discover that her dainty husband has no
more Of mans spirit in him than an auto
matte figure on a Savoyard's hsnd-organ.
But woman worth true mans love is
never caught by such specimen of Orua-
mental hollow-ware.
A sensible woman is, in fact, a terror to
ladies men," for they are aware that her
penetrating eye looks through them and
sounds the depths of their emptiness. She
knows the man indeed from the trumpery
counterfeit, and has no touch of the mack
erel propensity to jump at a hashy bait n
her wholesome composition. The 'ladies'
man" should be permitted to live and diSa
bachelor. His vocation is to dangle after
the sex, to talk soft nonsense, to carry
shawls and fans, to astOnish boarding school
misses, to kindle love flames as evanescent
and harmless as the fzz of a squib. If,
however he must needs become Benedict,
let him be yoked with some vain and silly
frt, his natural counterpart. So shall the
law of fitness not be outraged.

ALI About DimnIes

.Dimples are the perpetual smiles of Ma
ture-the very cunningist device and lurk-
ing place of Love. When earth is dimpled
by dells and valleys. it always seems to
laugh; when the ocean is dimpled by the
breeze, it sparkles with JOY beneath the
sunshine of heaven. We cannot look for
frowns on a dimpled face; frOwns and dim
pies will not associate together. How soft,
how roguish, how beautiful are the dimPles
in the elbows and shoulders, the pretty
hands and feet of the rosy babe. Mothers
dote upon those darling dimples, and de-
light to kiss them. But perfectly enchant-
ing dimples, at least to the eyes of an en-
thusiastic young man, are those which come
peeping out of the cheeks around the mouth
Of "sweet seventeen" When sweet seven
teen essays some arch, provoking sally,
peeping out and flying away soon after,
coming and going with the most 5ewitOhing
coquetTy.

tor comes; If IN position where the Eaud-
kerchief cannot be used, press the thumb
on a spot near the wound between the wound

bleeding ceases, but do not lessen the pres

5. If your clothing takes fire, slide the
hands down the dress, keeping them as
close to the body as possible, at the same
time sinking to the floor by bending the
knees; this has a smothering effect upon
the flames; if not extinguished, or a great
headway is gotten, lie down on the floor,
roll over and over; or better, envelop your
self in a carpet, rug, bedcloth, or any gar
ment you can get hold of, always preferring
wooden.
6. If the body is tired, rest; if the brain
is tired, sleep.
Z. If the bowels are too loose, lie down
in a warm bed, remain there, and eat no.
thing until you are well. Drink a small
dose OF blackberry wine or brandy three
times a day.
8. If an action of the bowels does not oc-
cur at the usual hour, eat not an atom until
they do act, at least for thirty-six hours;
meanwhile drink largely of cold water, and
exercise in the open air to the extent of a
gentle perspiration, and keep this up until
things are. If you partake of any food in
this condition, let it be something that has
a tendency to loosen the bowels. These
suggestions, if practiced, would save thou
sands of lives every year, both in city and
country

expedition into Tennessee made for the pur-
pose of driving back General Gillem's brig
ade of Federal cavalry. We arrived at
Greenville early in the evening of the Sd of
September. 1864. Greenville is distant
from Bulls Gap (Gen. Gilem's position
nineteen miles. The General established
his headquarters at the house of Mrs.
Williams, in the town of GreenvilIe. His
own brigade was sent on the road leading
to Rodgersville, to point three miles from
Greenville, for the purpose of getting forage,
and detachment Of Tennessee cavalry, six
hundred strong, was ordered under Colonel
Bradford, to encamp on the road leading 10
Bulls Gap, and to picket the roads leading
toward the enemy. This force was not in
creased because larger number of horses
could not be foraged in that direction. The
country between GTeenvIlle and the Gap is
billy, and wild, and very poor.
Gen. Gillem stated afterwards that he re-
ceived information Of the status of affairs
about Greenville at half past nine at night.
He Immediately moved his command in the
direction of Greenville; when about Eve
miles from town he halted and sent de-
tachment through the woods, and succeed

command. He drove Bradford back from
the road, leaving it open to Greenville- A

. in the following lines:
Your letter came, but came too late,
For Heaven had claimed its own;
All, sudden change! from prison bars
Unto the Great White Throne.
And yet, think he would have stayed
For one more day of pain,
Could he have read those tardy words
Which you have sent in vain.
II.
Why did you wait, fair lady,
Through so many weary hour3
Had you other lovers with you,
In that silken, dainty bower?
Did others bow before your charms
And twine bright garIands thereg
And yet, ween, in al the thrOng
His spirit had no peer.
III.
wish that you were by me now
As draw the sheet aside,
To see how pure the look he wore
Awhile before he died.
Yet the sorrow that you gave him
Still has left its weary trace,
And a meek and sanity sadness
Dwells upon that pallid face.
".
"Her love-" he said, ''could change for me
The Winters cold to Spring."
All! trust of tboughtless maiden's love,
Thou art bitter thing
For when these valleys fair, in May,
Once more with blooms shall wave,
The Northern violets shall blow
Above his humble grave.

Your dole Of scanty words had been
But one more pang to bear;
Though to the last, he kissed with love
This tress of your soft hair.
did not put it where he said,
For when the angels come,
I would not have them find the sign
Of falsehoOd in his tomb.
VI.
I've read your letter, and I know
The wiles that you have wrought
To win that noble heart of his.
And gained it; fearful thought!
What lavish wealth men sometims give
For trife, light and small;
What manly forms are often held
In foIly's fimsy thrall.
VII.
You shall not pity HIM, for now
He's past your hope and fear;
Although I wish that you could stand
With me beside his bier.
Still, forgive you; Heaven knows
For mercy you'll have need,
Since God his awful judgment sends
On each unworthy deed.
VIII.
Tonight the cold wind whistles by,
AsImy vigiIs5ss
Within the prison aead house, where
Few mourners come to weep.
A rude, plank coffin holds him now,
Yet death gives always grace;
And I had rather sec him thus
Than cIasPed in your embrace.
~IX.
Tonight your rooms are very gay,
With wit, and wine, and Nng;
And you are smiling just as if
You never did a wrong.
Your hand so fair that none would think
1t Penned these words of pain;
Your skin, so white-would, God, your aoul
Were half so free of stain
X
I'd rather be this dear, dear friend,
Than you in all your glce;
For you are held III grievous bonds,
While he's forever free.
Whom serve we in this life, we serve
In that which is to come;
He chose his way; you yours; let God
Pronounce the fitting doom

A BIT OF RoMANCE.-C. L. Perry. an
old resident of Mobile, has just returned
from a nine years cruise, and finds his
wife married to another man, and keeping
house with the children of Perry. The
wife repudiates the long lost husband, and
instead of throwing open her arms and faint
ing. as is the custom in such cases, she
deliberately chucked her truant husband
out of doors. Perry bursted the door open
and forcibly took possession of the house,
for which he was arrested and brought be-
fore the Mayor this morning. He states
that he has only been absent FIVE years,
having responded to the call of his cSdntry
in 1861, and tells very plausible story.
The case was continued for farther investi-
gation-Mo5iIe Meas, 18Th uIt.

STORY READMG.-At a certain age, chill
dren of both sexes delight in stories. 1t is
as natural as for them to skip, run and
jump, instead of walking al the staid pace
of grand parents. Now some persons think
they do very wise thing when they deny
this most innocent craving and Legitimate
outlet. They wish to cultivate, they say,
ga taste for solid reading" They might
as we lSbegin to feed a new born baby on
meat, lest nursing should Yitiate its desire
for it. The taste for meat viii come when
the child has teeth to chew it; so will the
taste of solid reading as the mind natures
that is if it is not made to hate it by hav-
ing it forced violently upon its attention
during the story loving period. That there
is ''time for all things' is truer of nothing
more than this.

A New WAY TO GET RICH.-Some time
since friend Of ours, says the Mobile
Tribune, who has great faith in the honesty
of human beings, and who strictly acts up
to the maxim "Think every man honest
until he is proved thief" had his attention
attracted by New York advertisement,
put forth in flaming capitals, announcing
that for fifty cents the advertiser would
End a certain and quick mode for getting
rich. Never doubling the honesty of the
advertiser and with his mind filed with
plenthoric Golfers, our friend enclosed his
fractional currency to the address of the
person in possession of this important and
long sought secret. Yesterday he received
by mail the folIowieg reply: "Work like
the ID and don't spend a cent" He
thinks now that he has been "muchly
sold," and we think so too. This should
be a warning to others who feel desirous Of
suddenly acquiring fortunes.
