A Coop JOKE on A LEGISLATURE
Some mad was came very near playing
a grand joke off on the Alabama legisla-
ture some time ago An exchange says
A bill was introduced in the Alabama
legislature to prohibit the sale Of liquor
within two miles of Zion church, Mont
gomery county. The bill was read twice
aud was on the verge Of passing when
at the last moment it was discovered that
it was negro church just outside the
corporation of the capital city. and of
course the introduction was equivalent to
shutiingoff the supply from the city, as
well as the Legislature. The member in
Producing the bill was not aware of
where the church was located.
1t is perhaps unnecessary to add that
the bill did not reach third reading
The law makers had no notion of being
deprived of their usual per diem Of afla-
tus, while the member who introduced
the bill, when last seen. was hunting for
the man who hao imposed upon him.

A Virginia Legacy to his Daughter.

An exchange of last week says: Las;
week the last will and testament of an
old citizen of Richmond was admitted to
record in the chaucery court of that city
In it occurs the following passages, which
are certainly curiosity in will literature {:
"To my daughter -, who has done
so mnch to ALLEVIATE my affections, give
as an evidence of the beauties of her
doctrines Of secession and rebellion, doc
trines anu aims which have reduced me
from afil!ence to bcggary, and as she yet
thinks, perhaps, that The Lost Cause"
will be rcgained, she may think my be-
quest as valuable, more SO, possibly, than
the same amount given in Yankee &C.
curties, | give her the following, viz ::
% Confederate bonds of X. p. & Co
$4,000; IS servants emancipated by
secession. $4,000; insurance and bank
stocks, sl5, 900; al my claims against
the SO called Confederate government for
the wanton. cruel and wicked destruction
of my property on the Sd of April, 1855,
$500 900. | could continue the list to
the extent of more than half a million of
dollars. but the above will suffice. She
will see what the effect of secession has
been, but for which l could have left all
my children handsome competency"

A Characteristic incident Is related
Of Ben Wade. Of Ohio. when he was
sent out by President Grant as one of
the Commissioners in 1868 to inspect
the Pacific road. He was disguised
at the sight of the alkaline formations,
and despaired of ITS redemption, when
resident bystander reminded him
that 1t would be nice place to live in
if 1t only had plenty Of water and
good society. II don't doubt It,"
was the bluff retort "and hell would
be a good place to live in, too, if 1t had
the same advantages.
