THEM ERE LEss.-A son Of the Gran.
tie State went down to the city of Mem
phis to seek his fortune. lie found, in.
stead, a dysentery, which gradually saps
life in a chronic form.
It was with this that " Jem Bagley
WI as picked up. And month after month
1T tugged, until, at length, he was but the
outline of his former self-a perfect
skeleton.
A worthy minister saw the poor fellow,
and seeing that the King of Terrors had
spotted him, determined to call on him
and offer spiritual consolation. He broa
ched the important subject somewhat
thus:
my dear Mr.. Bsgley, in view Of your
relations with this life, how do you feel p
I'D SICK" was the prompt reply
Don't swear, my poor friend said
the parson ; and then, let me ask, do
you ever think of your Latter end 7"
lord y said Bagley, hain't thought
on anything else for more'n three months
mot in the right way I'm afraid" Mr.
Baglcy. | beg you to pause and reflect
1t is time you begin to wrestle with the
Lord.'
The sick man looked down at bis mis-.
cradle poker-legs extended before him,
and with an expression of amazement III
his ~countenance, exclaimed
"Rastle with the Lord what, with
them ere legs Z" pointing to his own
"Why. parson, he'd flip me to L-ll the
very first pass"
The parson gave him up as a hardened
sinner.

REBELS DuRING THE WAR AND AFTER
While the rebellion lasted the North new
er accused the rebels of cowardice. On
the contrary, we gave them credit for
pluck, audacity, daring, endurance, and a
determination that only death and ruin
could break. Those who confronted the
enemy in the field were not the least
ready to allow him the possession Of these
warlike qualities. If any Ole spoke con
temptuously Of the rebel spirit, it vas
not the soldiers who closed with them in
the struggle, nor the leaders who attemp-
ed to overcome them in the conflict
There can be no harm in remembering
this fact in these days. when the North
is dealing with a PROSTATE South. There
al be no harm in our treating the South
erners IS though they possessed all the
bravery which We put to their account in
the days of the war and there can be
nothing but harm in treating them as
though they had given US reason to
charge them with the spirit or bearing Of
cowardice.--New York Times.
