A Ministerial Game Of Euoher.

Near a late New Jersey camp. meeting, two
clergymen, Baptist and Methodist, were
walking when they saw little girl sitting on
q stune, who was weeping bitterly. "What is
the matter, ury little girs?" asked the Baptist
kindly "My-my father was KILLED on the
railroad u icw days ago, aud has just been
buried, sir; aud my mUthcr is sick Abcd aud
cant work, aud We haven't nothing to eat,
aud don't know what to do" sobbed the girl.
"a truly lamcn,able case do indeed, pity

A Cry USDEnTAKER.-There is in New
Orleans lOug, lean, lank fellow, who though
"a hard 'un to look at" has perfec, mania
for playing practical jokes-and little does i.
concern him whether they arc Of grave or Of
gay character, and hc is equally Indifferent
upon the subject Of whether the victim be an
acquaintance or an' entire stranger. This
devilmay.care acquaintance has several pecu.
liurities Of personnel by which his friends
readily recognize him, and they have furnish
ed him with as many aliases as are possessed
by the most notorious travelling professional
that ever had his mug displayed in rOgue's
gallery.
Une Of JOe's lutcs. jokes was played of
upon strauger, who came into the city by
the Jackson train during the recent fright
about yellow fever
The cars had empticd out their cargo Of
passengers, and one greeuish, country looking
chap stood apart from the crowd with carpet.
bng in hand, evidently at loss as to whu, he
should do with himself. lie had not stood
long before Joe "went for him."
Five feet nine high !; two feet eleven across
tho breast, eighteen inches through said
Joe. looking tho new arrival us straight in tho
face rs his crooked neck would allow, not
cracking smile, and drawing from his pocket
tlpe line with which he was about to verify
his e.tima,ed measurement
"What do you mean, sir Z" eagerly inquired
the stranger.
why it's all right" said Joe, putting the
tape line back in his pocket. "You measure
five feet nine by two feet eleven by eighteen,
It'll be ready for you by 0 o'clock in the morn
ing"
"Whnt have you to do with my measure
mcnt, sir? What is to be ready by 0 O'Clock
iu the morning, sir2 Whut are you driving
at, sirS" inquired tho cOuntryman, cxcitedly
and angrily,
"%hy, you see," said Joe, "I'm the city
undertaken, aud the yellow fever is killing th
strangers of so rapidly that have to get thci
measures as they come into the city. If l di'
not. sir, the dead bodies would accumulate o.
my hands"
At this an unusual palOr came over tn
features of tho couutryman; his whole bod
WIS in quiver, and turning to the buggag
master he said: "Look here mister! Chec
my baggage back up the road. ! goes HON
by tho next train"

ROMANTIC sroRY-A MISSING WILL
RECoygRED.-Thc Newark Aavertiser Of
Saturday evening. November 4tb, has the
following.
Henry Dillon, an cx Union soldier propric.
tor of newspaper stand at Montgomery and
Hudson streets, yesterday received check
for $500 FROM tho daughter Of the late Gem
cral Stegman, ofthc Confederate army. The
circumstances under which the money was
paid arc romantic. During tho war Dillon
served in the I'd New Jersey Cavalry. He
accompanied his regiment on Gricrson's FAM
Gus raid through Mississippi, and while on a
scouting expedition ono day encountered Gen.
eral Stegmau and one OF his staff officers
Shots were exchanged, and the rebel general
fell from his saddle, mottally wounded. The
staff officer fled, but was overtaken and caps
turcd by n coarsde OF Dillou's. In his dying
moments General Stcgmau requested his sluy.
er to take from one Of his inside pockets his
will beqacashing all his property t, his wife
and lita insurance policy for $4,000. He
asked Dillon to keep them and send them to
his iamily.
After the war Mr.. Dillon advertised in vain
for the owners, and hc resolved to retain pos.
session OF tho papers until some inquiries
should be made for them. Recently an ai>
vcrtisomeut appeared in the Alabama papers
offering s5OO reward for the missing will
Dillon answered it, aud General Stegmau's
daughter came North as the guest Of Roger
a. Pryor She relatcd the particulars Of the
long search for the will, the difficulties tbat
had been encountered, the production ot
forged will by her fathers relatives, and their
Mobile lawsuit. She expressed deep graft.
tudc to Mr.. Dillon for tho recovery OF the
will, aud said through it, her mother aud her.
self would be enabled to regain possession Of
their extensive Alabama and Georgia estates.
The estates are valued at s3O0,Q0O.

GETTING READY TO BE BuRED.-Ths
mau who eau havc his coffin made while alive
must look at death philosophically. We hear
Of case in point in Person county. Mr..
Richard Harris, who lives near Bradshers
store, thirty.odd years ago turned out sassa.
iras tree to grow for the purpose of making
himself coffin, and about twelve months ago
the old man had it cut down, and got some
one in Ruxboro to make his coffin ou. Of it
The old chap occasionally gets in it aud
stretches himself out, by way of showing his
ueighbors "goOd ft." He paid tho maker
of the coffin in wheat; so there is one living
man who will have no fuss over his grave
about the coffin when dead. This reminds
US Of au old coon in Murireesboro, who had .
cotIiu east of iron before the war. He had
his grave dug also, aud walled up with brick,
with magnitcen, tombstone setting forth his
name, date Of birth, and fixing his death
"somewherc about the year 1861" Bu. be
was alive aud kicking in l76S. The old chap
ken. his castirou coffin in his corn.crib, and
used to shell corn in it. This crib needed no
lock at night, for you couldn't get negro to
