Loquacity and Reserve.

The ideas of great talker differ much
feom those Of reserved man--the former
being super fetal and comparatively value
less, while the latter, generally invented in
proverbs, are truthful impressive aud pre-
found. The language of the former skips
along as easily and gracefully as the grey
hound, while on the contrary, that of tho
latter slowly, clumsily and heavily onward,
like the ponderous and unwieldly elephant.
He finds il difficult TO give ultoiauce to his
thoughts, which rush forward to the portals
OF his mouth in such crowds that they in
fact block it up, Whenever you meet with
a man Of this kind give him time, and do not
mistake his tedious tardiness for ignorance
or ,imbecility of mind. In nine cases out
of ten he has lived in solitude, and because
his tongue grows SO rusty that, when he
does venture into society, no one will wait
ill he is drawn out, and therefore his re-
serve continues 10 increase. Do not con-
temptuously turn your back upon him, but
listen, and he will in all likelihood repay
your civilily with interest. The eagle is
a solitary bird, and his voice may be harsh
; and still he is an eagle, nevertheless. Do
not imagine that he is dead or asleep, but
be more attentive 10 nature. Tho gun is
silent until its note is one OF triumph the
tigers fatal spring and terrific roar are
Simultaneous the volcano is silent before
an eruption and all nature seems dead
before the tornado and the earthquake.
Nature employs silence TO concentrate her
energies, that the effect may be more ap
palling and sublime. As iron by long ex-
posure to the action Of fresh water, has a
rusty exterior, but is inwardly improved in
quality, SO the rust of the reserved man
is only superficial, while his ideas, over
which the streams of time has passed, arc
susceptible of high polish, and sinks
more forcibly into the mind of his hearer.
The diamond is rough, dull stone, when
first brought from its rocky bed, yet it re-
ceives from the lapidary briiliancy, al
most capable of dispelling the gloom of
night. ~

one-Armed Ingenuity.
A correspondent writing to the Indiana

A correspondent writing to tho Indiana
polls Journal, says:
AT Pennsylvaniaburg, Ripley county.
Indiana, met the most remarkable case Ct
one-armed ingenuity. Robert Lewis, .
young man without home or kindred, who
had to earn his bread by hard, daily labor,
early in the war, at the minimum age, en-
tered the service as private in General
Spooner's regiment, the SD Indiana. At
the battle of Chickasaw Bluff Robert lost
his arm al the shoulder. After much suf-
fering he returned to his former home.
The loss of an arm only seemed to inn
press him with the idea that greater ener-
gy would be required if he would make an
honorable living.
He began to study at night and every
leisure moment. Soon he qualified himself
for teaching. About this time he did what
would usually be, under similar circum-
stances very foolish thing-he got mar
ried. But his wife accepted the situation,
and was willing to laugh at poverty and
help her husband to earn their braad.
He taught school in the winter and in
the summer began to build his house. I
was through his house day or two ago
1t has six rooms, is Of the gothic style OF
architecture, and is neat and substantial
thronohout From the foundation to roof
all the work was done by This one-armed
man, except that his wife and mother as
sisted in raising it. Not being able to pro-
cure joists to suit him, be sawed them out
Of wide two inch plank.
He laid the foundations, built the Chin
news, made the door and sash--in short. no
sound of hammer, or any tool was heard
about the building Of that house except
those that were welded by his ann. Let
any one try to start ten-penny nail with
only one hand, and he will doub: this story;
but, strang as it may appear, it is in every
respect true.
1t would pay one for trip to Ripley
county to see the ingenious devices Of
Robert Lewis to make the difficult work
for two armed man easy Of accomplish
| ment by one armed soldier. At the tint
| / was there he was completing baby
wagon, which would compare with ths
neatest of those sold in the market.

CHEERING THE WRoNG MAN.-Ths
spontaneous character of the respect of the
people for Geh. Sheridan, was amusingly
illustrated yesterday. Col. II. w. Bellows
of Walpole, N. H., gave Ex-Governor
Smyth and two Boston friends ride in
the afternoon after his magnificent Black
Hawk six horse team, and the turnout cre-
sted admiration wherever it went. Such
rare show of horse flesh suggested the
idea among the people assembled in the
central part of one of our suburban towns
that some person of mark must be in the
barouche, and Gen. Sheridan, Of course,
being in everybodys affections must be the
man. Imagination helped them to embody tho
idea and to fix on chupky-built civilian
to whom war would be great antipalhy-
as the gallant " little PHIL Cheer after
cheer accordingly went up for the hero Of
Winchester, for which compliment the
man who was not Sheridan bowed his most
gracious thanks. 1t is a pity to deprive
our suburban friends of the pleasure they
must have had of GREETINGS they sup
posed-the popular man of the day, but
the truth, and the desire to describe the
joke, induce US to correct their mistake

able confusion cnsued.
The five French squares were instantly
converted into columns of attack. The
route was complete. When the sun went
down, the tri-color flag was floating over
the Moslem enirenchments and by death
and dispersion the foe had utterly disap-
peared. The French lost but one hundred
in killed and wounded, while ten thousand
of the enemy persisted.
Allowing the troops one day to rest and
to preserve the boundless wealth which
was found in the Oriental camp, the next
day Napoleon entered Cairo in triumph.
and the city, with population of three
hundred thousand, bowed peacefully to his
sway.
Napoleon conquered Egypt in eight
weeks, with the loss Of about two hundred
men in killed and wounded.

Drinking Improbable.

1t has become a sort of popular, almost
national, faith, that it is not possible to be
truly happy unless you drink. Among
certain classes-and they are by no means
exclusively the lowest--drink is the be-
ginning and the end of everything. The
very name of liquor is said to be synony-
nous with enjoyment, and the dearer the
liquor the more it is priced and coveted.
Yet every man who is downright drunk
ard is well aware that the pleasures OF
drinking are beyond certain point, a
mockery, delusion, and snare. put
it to any one who has stood half the night
at porter bar, or sat half the night in
club room drinking, smoking, and handy
ing reckless talk, if the enjoyment of such
an evening has been anything like that of
few quiet hours spent at home with a
book or newspaper The evil influence
of tavern pleasure on the health is too OBJ
vious to be denied by any one, and the illu-
sorry nature of the pleasures themselves
would be undeniable also, if the persons
who indulge in them did not deceive them
selves, and put the truth out of sight.
No one ever brought any good out of |
drinking bout yet. 1t is short, feverisl
spasm of animal enjoyment, which leave
nothing but moroseness, regret, bad tenn
per, self-reproach and headache. shoul
