DISABLED SOLDIERS.

The 1f7uY and Nary ,Io,;rnof discour-
ses as follows Of disabled soldiers, and
appeals to the public for contributions to
raise and support asyluiHs. 1t says;
Since the war it has beoome customary
for male beggars of all descriptions to
wear some part of the Uuited States
uniform and also to furnish themselves
with discharge papers, as part of their
stock IN trade. Before the rebellion, the
large cities were well supplied with
medicants who had Topped off their fair
proportions by some accident or casualty
and yet it is now impossible to End one of
these fellows who, according to his owa
account, was not shot While bra7ely
fighting for the Union What, then, has
become of the supply e one armed and
one-legged cripples we had on hand seven
years ago They cannot surely 81 havs

them, doubtless, are now pursuing their

There are, doubtless many deserving

in great measure, been deprived of tho

COL. CEICKLBYS HORSE.

| | have never been able to ascertain the
cause Of the quarrel between the Chick
leys and the Drak es. They had lived
within mile of each other, for five years,
and from their first acquaintance there
had been a mutual feeling Of dislike be-
tween the two families.
One evening Mr.. Drake, the elder was
returning home with his pockets full OF
rocks" from Chicago, whittier he had
been to dispose of a load Of grain. Sam
Barston was with him in the wagon, and
as they approached the grove which in
tervened between them and Mr.. Drake S
house, he observed to his companion:
w hat beautiful shot Col. Chickley' S
old roam is over yonderl'
Hung it ! muttered old Drake, $50 it
is"
The horse was standing under some
trees about twelve rods from the road.
Involuntary, Drake stopped his team
gIancing furtively saround, then with a
queer smile the hunter took up his rife
from the bottom Of the wagon, and raised
it to bis shoulder, drew a sight on the
CJlonel's horse.
Beautiful y muttered Drake, lower
ing his rife with the air of a man resist
ing powerful temptation. II could
drop OLD roam SO easy !"
''Shoot," suggested Sam Barston, who
loved fun in any shape.
No, no, 'twouldn't d." said the old
hunter, glancing cautiously around him
again.
ri won't tolI,o said Sam.
L won't shoot this time, any way, tell
or no tell The horse is too nigh. If he
was fifty rods off instead of twelve, 50
there'd be a possibility of mistaking him
for deer, I'd let fly. As it is, I'd give
the Colonel S. for a shot
At that moment the Colonel himself
stepped from behind big OAK, not half a
dozen PAGES off, and stood before Mr..
Drake.
"Well, why don't you shoot ?"
The old man stammered some words ia
confusion !:
That you, Colonel? II was tempt
cd to, | declare; and as | said, I'll give
you q ' for one pull"
Say an X, and It's bargain"
Drake felt of his rifle, and looked at
roam.
GLOW much is the horse wuth ?'' lie
muttered in Sans car.
About $50"
Cad, Colonel, III do it, Here's
your X !''
The Colonel took and pocketed the
money, muttering:
Hanged if | thought you would take
me up"
With high glee the old hunter put a
fresh cap on his rifle, stood up in his wag-
on, and drew close sight at old roam.
Sam Barston chuckled. The Colonel
put his hand to his face, and chuckled
too.
Crack went the rife The hunter
tore out horid oath, which | will not
repeat, Sam was astonished. The Col
onel laughed. Old roam never stirred.
Drake stared at his rife with face as
black as Othello's,-

LEAP YEAR.

Eighteen sixty-eight is an important
year
1t is leap year,
Of which fact wish to remind the Ia
dies.
There is a division of opinions { as to
the right Of woman to vote, but
there can be no question as to her right
to husband-if she can get one.
But I would advise young ladies not
to be rash.
Although it is leap year, you had bet
ter look before you leap
Because if you get husband and he
don't suit you, you can't change him for
better one-at least without going to Chic
ago. wouldn' advise any young woman
to marry man who would expect their pa
to support them.
Young ladies need not enquire toe
particularly whether the man of theil
choice belongs to a lodge whioh meets
four nights Of a week.
She will find that out after hey are
married.
Husbands, like other domestic animals,
when caught young can sometimes be
trained to do a good many useful thin ss.
They have even been known to get up
in the morning and light the fire when
the girl had gone away.
There are some professions not advis
able to marry into.
6ut as the great object is to get hus-
band, and as the supply is limited, it may
not do to be particular

At one Of the chrches for oolored

At one Of the chrches for colored
people in Memphis, recently, the minister,
having finished the sermon, announced
that collection would be taken up for
mis- ionary purposes, The ''sas8er" was
accordingly sent around. When it came
back to the pulpit, the preacher proceeded
to count the amount, and among the
fractional currency he discovered a ten
dollar Confederate bill. He looked at it
for some time with evident disgust, and
then took calm look at his cogregation
over the Top Of his spectscles. Then
clapping the uncurrent bill upon the
Bible, with indignant emphasis, he ex-
claimed: " Brederin, [ put dis bill right

WHAT YOU MAY AND Map NOT CALL
A MAN,-There is more or less Of the
animal about man that nobody will deny.
Plato's definition Of man was, 'An animal
without feathers, walking on two legs,
This was too much for Diogenes, who
caught an old rooster, plucked it, took it
into school, and scornfully asked ''if that
was Plato's man ?" We don't know how
Plato got out of it, and don't care, as this
has but little to do with the matter in
hand. Though an animal, man does not
like to be called a beast yet there arc
many known as ''bulls" and 'bearo" that
accept these appellations as rightly and
properly belonging to them, though indi-
vidually, in another sense, they would OBJ
ject to being called bears. There are
many who would like to be known az
''lions" and even tiger would be considered
more complementary than calf. Many
young fellow would like to be regarded
as ''buek" and yon may call man
"dear fellow but don't think of calling
him moose. To be called duck of a
man would please many an individual
who would take it to heart if called a
goose, independent Of. the mlsnomer.
Call a man puppy" and he'll resent it !;
but call him sly dog" and you'll rather
please him. Do not call him hog, even
if he is lore, nor an elephant if he hap
pens to be heavy weigh" but you may
CAL him 'fox" or a "coon" with impu.
nifty. A man doesn't like to be called a
shark, but you can call him "queer
fish" Never call cross eyed man lynx
eyed--he'll think you are "sarkas J"
Call man jackass, and he'll stalk back,
but you may call him an ''old rat" and it
it is ten to one he'll ask you to take
sutbin." A man. who wouldn't feel
mplimen ted at being called a cormorant,
would smile at being called "n isht.o owl.'D
Don't offend by calling man gosling,
but you may call him a "gay rooster
without offence. Don't call man fool;
call him clever fellow, which amounts
! to the same thing, but sounds prettier
A man would be we'll pleased to know
that you SAID he was keen as a razor yet
would object to your calling him sharp
err To call man stone would be
considered rejecting on his intellectual
powers, but you may call him "brick"
to his great satifaction.
