took him around in q very Renteel way.
and treated him copiously, and showed
him some sights. and then when thew
thought the proper time had arrived,
proposed to fight little game Of the
tiger. The carpet-bsgger. nothing loath.
followed them to their headuMartere :
and, in order to make it appear perfectly
lair, they proposed that the man who
had the largest amount of money should
be the dealer. The green carpet. bagger
revealed his pile, which the crowd was
very anxious to see, and to their delight
it proved the biggest pile.
You are to be dealerl" cried all.
"Oh. no boys" protested the green
carpet bagger, Il cart deal; I don't
know anything about il. I've bucked

They all protested that as he had the
biggest pile. and had won tho chance, lie

They oil insisted that ho should deal.
He took up the cards in an awkward
way, shufflsd them with many xri.

cards into the box from which thew were
to be drawn, his hand accidentally
slipped and revealed, under the top
card, the king Of hearts, 30 that they oil
saw it. Every gambler Immediately
coppered on the king of hearts.
Tho green carpet Dagger at once cried
out:
"Now, now. come boys, come, this
won't do; you're taking the advantage
of me. There is something wrong, or
you wouldn't oil bet in that way toge-

They all insisted that the game should
go on just as it WIS, aud after many pro-
testatlons that it WAS not fair thing to
take III Il stranger so, the green cnrpet-
Dagger proceeded to denl.

beneath, sure enough, was tho king OF

They all pushed forward to sweep off

exposed another king for the third card.
This made splits.

on Saturday, 24th inst, to canvass for the
Temperance Cause. We left Camden early
in the morning, so as to avoid the intense
heat of the weather, and, crossing the river
at the lower ferry, took our way for Smyrna
Church, where there was to bc public
meeting, and preaching by Rev. j. 4. Cliff
ton. When. we arrived at the Church, only
few persons were present, but in the course
of the morning sufficient number assembled
for us to 90 work among After the reli-
gious services were concluded, tho Temper
ance cause was happily introduced by the
pastor, Rev. }Ir. Clifton, who made an Of
fective speech. He then introduced Messrs.
J. T. Hay and A. NJ. Kennedy, who deliv-
cred addresses on Temperance. The time
was limited, but by hard work and the hear
ty assistance of Mr.. Clifton, we. organized q
