The Power of a Corporal,

The Weston Democrat relates the follow
ing story concerning Hon. j. NJ. Bennett. Of
that place, who was Auditor of the State of
Virginia during the war:

visions were worth almost their weipbt in

hiUa on the shoulder, said ''Sir, | want you

not lI:ble to military duty"
Il have heard that sort of talk before "
said the soldier, $50 on you co.
"But," said Mr.. Bennett, Il am State
officer
You can't come that game over me. I've
told you to go on; and ityou don't, I'll touch
you up with the bayonet.''
"Weil, take me to Governor Lctcher."
''Thc devil take Governor Letcher."
"Ihen take me TO General Breckenridge"

that's ali -
There was no help for it, and Mr.. Bennett
trudged along At last, seeing lady oil his
acquaintance, he banded her his basket. with
instructions to tell his family that they would
find him at Castle Thunder Just as they
were passing Broad street Theatre. another
soldier, bearing upon his arms the stripes of a
corporal, happened TO see them, and coming
to the guard he said What are YOU doiu, ?
This is Mr.. Bennett State oiiicer-you
cant take him"
.'Oh said the guard, '.of course it's all
right If you say so" and walked of, leaving
his late prisoner at liberty
Mr.. Bennett then turned to the corporal.
and, raising his hat, made most profound
bow. "Sir,' said he, "YOu are the greatest
man in the army! What Gov. Letcher. Gen
breckenridge, and JeT. Davis could not do,
Jon did with all the ease in the world. | a.
sure you that if l ever entered the army, |
should make it condition precedent that I
should hold the Office of corporal"

Springfield Ohio. The machine is nearly wholly
constructed Of iron, making it durable and
strong. The main frame and cutting box can be
raised by one lever without inconv enience TO the
driver whilst sitting upon his seat, providing IA
clties for the machiGe to pass over stumps and
other distractions of grsater distance from the

parallel together and both brought to occupy a
compact position behind the driver and the rear
part Of The frame nearly within trail of the
ID WING ELS.
The same can be shipped without detaching any
of the parts, making it more convenient to be
handled by the merchant or stored away by the
farmer when the season for its use has passed.
Thd mechanical construction of the" Machine
provides the means of self adjustment in all its

cross gurders. the whole mechanism of the ma
chine can be presented in detail on the field, if
