A PHYSICIANS Testimony.

An eminent physician of Dublin says :
"lf an end were put to the drinking of
port, punch and porter, there would soon
be an end of my worldly prosperity
Physicians, surgeons, and apothecaries
would be ruined, our medical halls would
be stripped of their slpcndor, and disease
would be comparatively rare, simple, and
manageable. Twenty years experience
has convinced me that, were ten young
men, when of age, to commence drinking
one glass of ardent spirits, or pint of
port or sherry, and continue to drink that
quantity daily, the lives of eight of them
would be abridged twelve or fifteen years. -
Would that every young man 10 the land
could read this

A Good Customer.

A few days since, dignifed person,
with the bearing and genteel appearance
of country merchant, stepped into a
wholesale store in the city of Norwich,
Conn, and, in bland tone and insinua-
ting manner, inquired of the proprietor,
1t he sold gin by the barrel, at what price
| and if it was good article. He Would
like to see a sample.
Proprietor drew large sized tumbler
full. Country merchant tasted.
"Ah!" said he, as he smacked his lips
with just suspicion of delight, CHATS
good gin. What can you let me have
barrel of that for %
Proprietor named the price.
Remarkably good gin," said he, tax
ing another sip. 'That reminds me of
some gin bought in 1885, and he wens
on with long story about that particu-
lar gin, stopping occasionally to try the
sample until it was all gone but swal-
low. The story finished, he tossed off
the balance of it, and remarked that he
liked the gin, and would come in and
leave his order after making few pus-
chases elsewhere, left the store.
An hour afterward, while the propric-
tor was waiting upon some customers,
the gin buyer returned, and this time
tackled one of the clerks with:
81 have got to buy some gin to day,
and if you have got frst-rate article L
should like to see sample of it,
Another large sized tumbler full was
forthcoming, and the old fellow tasted Of
it. Then be turned it round, held it up
to the light, and tasted again. Then he
smacked his lips, inquired the price, and
took another sip. Then he remarked
that it was very cold weather and took s.
good swallow. Then he commented on
the gin, and INDUCED in few reflections
upon how much more gin cost now than
it did in 1888. He kept on talking and
he kept on drinking. and the clerk kept
on waiting to consumate the trade.
lie was such dignifed man, and was
so evidently good judge of, as we'll as a
large dealer in gin, that the clerk was.
not disposed to hurry him. But as he,
was taking down the last swallow, the;
proprietor came around.
''Look here, sir; do you want to buy
my gin ?"
The old fellows dignity melted in an.
instant. Putting his hand in his over
coat, he drew out pint bottle, and in.
the meckest and mildest voice imagin-
able replied:
Yes, q half pint in this bottle"

When Buel and Bragg made their cell
ebrated race for Louisville on lines par
allel with each other, many of the regi-

demoralized, aud not little mourning
and lamentation went out from hundreds
Of hen roosts and pig sites. On one oc-
casion long, slab sided Illinoisian was
trudging along the Bardstown turnpike
with an enormous gobblcr thrown over
his shoulders. The Colonel, noticing
him, rode up, and doubtless thinking that
that species of bird should be seen no.
where in camp excepting at ead-quarters,
demanded;
"Where did you get that turkey?" and
how dare you struggle from the command
to rob against orders?
With an expression of countenance as
innocent as a seraph's, the fellow replied
"Well, Colonel, captured him back
here, and as he couldn't take the oath
thought I'd bring him alongW
From the "bummer" point of view the
answer was pertinent; but the Colonel
held different views, aud ordered itintc
the custody of the comissary. Thence Of
course, to head quarters table.
