Quail,

The quail is the best beloved and
choicest object Of the true spOrtsman's
ambition it is the bird which alone
affords more brilliant and exciting
sport than all the rest beside the
bravest on the wing and the best on
the board /; the swiftest and strongest.
flyer of any feathered game, the most
battling to find, the most troublesome
to follow up, and the most difficult to
kill, in style. We write thus about
the quail at this time, because now is
the best time in all the year to hunt
and kill them. These birds pair ear
ly in March they begin to lay in
May, in nest made on the surface of
the ground, usually in tuft of grass,
fourteen being the average number of
eggs. The period of incubation is
about four weeks. As soon as the
first brood is on the wing the cock
takes charge of it, and the hen pro-
ceeds to lay and hatch a second brood,
the male bird and the first brood re-
naming in close vicinity. In Oeto-
ber, they are fit for the gun, and now
when the stubbles arc long, and the
weeds and grasses rank, they lie the
best and are the least wild ON the
wing. The early mornings and the
late afternoons are the fittest times
for finding them, when they are on
the run, and feeding in the edges of
wheat and rye stubbles, or buckwheat
patches bordering on woodlands. As
soon as flushed, they pitch into the
thickest neighboring cover they can
find, their fight being wild, rapid
and impetuous, but rarely long and
established. They have the power Of
holding scent for short time after
alighting, and are with difficulty
found again.

General Butler tells the following
good story: While he was in COM
mand at New Orleans a native Louis
ianlau was observed one day by a
wag reading a staring placard on a
wall in a public street "Buy your
shirts at Moody's." The reader in
quired Of the wag what that meant.
'Oh!" said the joker, in solemn tone,
'::that is one of the edicts of the tyran-
nical Butler" The Louisianian re-
marked: "But [ don't want any
shirts" "Well," said the wag, "you
better buy a few. 1t is the safest
course to comply with the order, for
Butler is a perfect despOt, you know
So the frightened Creole sought out
Moody and bought quarter dozen
shirts. In due time Paris paper ar
rived at New Orleans, in which the
facts were narrated as proving Butler
was both tyrannical and mean-using
his power to compel citizens to buy
shirts of one Moody, who was un-
doubtedly his partner

Raw beef, it is asserted, proves
Of the greatest benefit as a diet for
persons of frail constitution. 1t IS
that physicians are now
administering to consumptives diet
of finely chopped raw beef, proper
ly seasoned with salt, and heated
by placing the dish containing it in
boiling water. This food is given
also in cases where the stomach
rejects almost every other food
1t assimilates rapidly, and affords
the best nourishment, while patients
learn to long for it and like it as
much as DIR. Kane did his Arctic
dinners of raw seal and walrus.

The appetite for strong drink,
when INDUCED and pampered, gains
such mastery of the soul that its
suhjugation is almost impossible.
An Eastern fable illustrates it thus
"a King once permitted the devil to
kiss him on either shoulder. Imedi-
ately two serpants grew from his
shoulders, who, furious with hunger,
attacted his head and attempted to
get at bis brain. The king pulled
them away and tore them with his
nails. But he soon saw with inde-
scribable horror, that they had be-
come parts of himself, and that in
wounding them he was lacerating his
own flesh.

BRIDAL GIFTS-OUR SOCIAL
BLACK MAIL.

As things go nowadays an invitation
10 a wedding is no laughing matter. Those
pastebOard squares, with their entangle-
ment of mOnOgrams, summon us to take
part in a great many absurdities of Gus
tom; but, of all these. the absurd and
burdensOme is that of giving presents.
The fact is that marrying people pTac-
tice upon all their friends at the pres
ent day a system of baref ex-
tortion, without giving them the right to
resent or expose it. There is no pre-
tence of spOntaniety or sentiment in
these gifts. They are purchased be-
cause they must be, and this the re-
ceiver we'll understands. The exaCtion
upon people of moderate means, rat
ing their affections before the town by
the number of dollars they are able OF
willing to invest ON the occasion, and NOR.
tifying them, if the gift be small, by
parading it, with name attached, in con.
trast with the outlay of Weather friends,
is 50 essentially indicate and vulgar, that
it is a wonder how it ever came to be tOle-
rated in any society claiming to be refined.
The custom is absurd also, as well as yul-
gar and burdensome, when one comes &c
reflect upon it. The matrimonial party
really gain nothing; for they have to re
pay the same in value when the donors
invite them to similar occasion, so tha
their gifts are simply loans. How many
times the bride must have said, "Thanl
you very much; how lovely it isl" owe
this amount of plate, when she know
that the equivalent which must be giVel
for it in the future would purchase uni
form service after her own heart. As j
is, each couple find themselves pOssesse'
of heterogeneous mass of silyerware
not only unlike in design, but with excesse
and DEFICIENCIES which nobody could fore

The Address of Maj. Akers, recently de-
hVered at Thompsons Chapel, upon Stone
wall jackson, was one of marked ability,
replete with thought and sparkling with
eloquent expressions of a literary charac-
ter. The speaker started out with refer
ence to the struggles of science to free
itself from the letters of Ignorance and su-
psrstition, and by happy felicity of con-
eeption drew an apt parallel between this
and the struggle of the South and her he
roes for the freedom of thought and OF
mind
The historical illusions and references
were most happy, the speaker evideneing
varied research and clear perception.

ing character in connection with the cam
paigns of Lee and Jackson which have

Tonight is the last appearance Of Miss
Hosmer. She has volunteered for the
benefit of the Confederate burying ground
at Mt. Olivet Cemetery. Mr.. Dalton and
the entire company have volunteered for
the same noble and patriotic purpose.
They have volunteered to decorate and
improve the graves of our fallen braves,
who volunteered for us, and who bore our
crimson banner away in field and battle
plain behind the distant hills, and who
we're returned to their last rest, after four
long years Of war and carnage. There,
in this burying ground, sleep the
heroes of Chicamauga, and of Stone River,
the waters of which were incarnadined
with as true blood as ever coursed the
veins of patriots. The soldiers of Frank
lin, the warriors of Hood, sleep there.
They have fought their last battle" For
them the war-drum has sounded its ''last
tattoo, and their next marshalling together
will be responsive to the trump Of the
resurrection reveille. Mount OliVet Gene
terry is ennobled by having them sleep
there. II is monument to Tennessee,
enduring as the hills around the city.
The sleepers themselves need no monu-
ment. mot all the marble of Carrara,
fashioned with the skill of Angelo himself,
into the mimicry of breathing
life, and covered all over with the
blazonry Of great deeds, could build a
monument 50 lasting as they have made
upon the minds of men. Over the
grave Of each ones memory will hover
with sadness but with pride
I The night dew that falls,
Though in silence ii veeps,
- VIII brighten with verdure
The grave where he sleeps
And the tear that we shed
Though in secretft rolls,
Shall still keep his memory
Ever green IN our souls.
In the almost universal heart-homage
and tribute paid them, it is meet that Miss
Hosmer and the company weave this
cypress wreath about their graves. 1t is
honorable to her and to the company. 1t
