.slf you're Coming, why don't you sseeme
along:''

WhenEI was an old field schoolmaster, have
often heard this cry ringing on the play grounds,
and have applied it in the following lines, to the
Progress Of the age. J. D. DAVIDSON.
Lexington Va
Twas in G dold, by an old field school,
Where the boys were romping Wild,
noted one with shining face So;
And lie was but a child:
And as he romped upon the green, o.
With mind and muscle strong,
Anen he'dscry to the tagging boys
sHhy don't you Come along y
So said the boy but when he spoke,
The NAV was in that boy,
And now his voice round Christendom
Rings, like bell Of joy;
For the world has taken up his cry,
And joined him in the song,
Now sung by nations in their March
"Nhy don you come along
The engine and the Telegraph,
Proclaim it to the mani
The man takes up thechcering cry,
Which, with the boy began;
Der wood and plain--oer sea and earth,
It ringa in startling song
'Tis written on the armament
"Nhy don't you come along?"
Come on.-pause motifs death TO stop
The tide is at its flood;
For men and things, arc on their march e
Halt never, if you would
That cry is in the hearts Of mem s.
Their watch word, right or wrong;
And nations cry in every tongue
fsWhy don't you come along p
But yesterday, il took six men,
TO make pin but now, ssss
That little. boy, viii do the work =
When done, he'll scarce know how
Though fellows action then we pause
70 think; no longer strong;
But stil keep up the schoolboy's cry:
'.Hhy don't you come along ?"
But yesterday, the reapcrs hook,
Aloyed slowly through the grain;
Mccormick, now, With a storm Of hooks,
= The harvest sweeps amaia;
And as he cuts and cleans and bags,
II joins the world wide song -
Old fogie reapcrs tarry not
s.Wlly don't you come alongs"
Front march. halt not: is now the word,

Say what you have to say at once;
Go do it, if you can
Men sing 1.-THE eagine shrieks il =

All nature breaths the worlds great cry -

When Forte Donelsen fell General Floyd
and most Of his Brigade managed to escape.
AZ be retreated to Chattanooga, for the pur-
pose Of going back to Virginia, his army
passed through Jasper, andthe general made
a speech at the courthouse. He said, among
other things that he had done the Yankees
more harm than any dozen men in the South +;
that they had long account oscttle with
him. and that he was determined that, if set

How aToper Got Frightened.

Adjoining a certain livery stable in the
West End lives German tailor, who is of
that class that 'sgetteth on a spree" He
came home last night, about o'clock, after
his periodical bender, SO completely rum
fcoxled, that he mistook the livery stable for
his own domicile, and with a confused idea Of
going up stairs to bed, he crawled up a ladder
on to the loft, and went to sleep Oh the hay
His presence was not observed by any of the
stable folks, and when the stable was locked
up for the night, the inebriated man was
locked in. He slept the sleep of the bum
mer until the ghostly hour when churehyards
yawn (through WEAKNESS or some other cause
and then he woke Helay FOR time reflect
ing upon his past life, as topers are apt to do
when they awake sober, and feeling very re-
merseful and-and dry.
Then he gradually became conscious that
he was in strange place. lie was half buri-
ed in the hay, aud his frau WASH t there. He
began to grope about to ascertain, if possible
where he was. In another part of the loft
some collins were stored, belonging to an un-
dertaker in the neighborhood, and the tailor
wandered in among them. As he stumbled
and Numbered overthe receptaelesfor spirit-de-
serted humanity they gave forth hollow sounds
that made him shudder and pause to study
more closely his situation. The light from a
street lamp, as it shone through the window,
enabled him to recognize the collins, aud then
he shrank upon his knees, the perapiration
started from every pore, as a sudden conyic-
tion flashed upon him, and he shrieked
s.Oh, mine Colt mine Colt I'm ted
4 4
der gofins. Ted Of do much trunk. Oh
Oh!
Some one connected with the stable, hear
ing the uproar, shouted from below to know
what the matter was The frenzied tailor
heard the voice, and it seemed to his excited
brain to be call from the superintendent of
the regions below to come at once to his do
mlnIons.
He shouted back-s;I It don't pc mel ain t
der faler-I pese Won Broosian all de vile. "
He evidently had an idea that as he was a
Prussian and hadn't taken cut his naturali-
cation papers, that his birthstone majesty had
no right to exercise jurisdiction over kim
He claimed the protection of Bisnlark, as it
were, over Birthstone. Then he made a rush
to get away from those horrid collins, which
he succeeded in doing, but only to fall through
hole in the floor, through which hay was
put for the horses below. As he found him
self sinking he gave way to dispair, (awho
enters here leaves hope behind, y and yelled
Here comes, good Mister tifel, here |
comes =
It required some time to convince him that
he wasn't dead and in Tophot, but it was
fpally accomplished, and he skunk away to
his home and his frau. It is to be hoped
that the fright he got will result in his rcfor-
nation.
