been thankful for leave of absence. The
congregation, Gen. Jackson and all, smiled
or laughed right out, all at the preachers
expense. When the congregation was dis
missed, my city-stationed preacher stepped
up to me, and very sternly said to me,
You are the strangest man 1 ever saw,
and Gen. jackson will chastise you for
your insolence before you leave the city,
"Very clear of it," said L; for Gen. Jack
son have no doubt will applaud my
course and if he should undertake to
chastise me, there are two that can play at
that game"
Gen. jackson was staying at one of the
Nashville hotels. Next morning, very ear
ly, Brother Mac went down to the hotel to
make an apology to Gen. jackson for my
conduct in the pulpit the night before.
Shortly AFTER passed by the hotel and met
Gen. jackson on the pavement, and before
l approached him by several steps, he
smiled, and reached out his hand and said
" Mr. Cartrght, you are a man after my
own heart. / am very much surprised at
Mr.. Mac, to think that he supposed that
would be offended at you. No sir 1 told

Sagacity Of a Mare.

Virginia paper says: A remarkable in
stance of the sagacity lis it not reason p of
horse has come to our notice. Mr.. John
Fletcher, a Norwegian, owns an unbroken
cayuse mare which runs in pasture adj
joining his house. The mare, which is very
wild, has young colt at her side. A few
nights since, after Mr.. Fletcher had retired,
he was aroused by the mare coming to the
window of his house, and by paving, neigh
ing in every way possible trying to get his
attention. This continuing for some time
he got up and went out and drove her
away, and returned again to bed but she
Immediately returned, and if possible in
creased her demonstrations, he again went
out when the mare came up to him and
rubbed her nose against him, though always
before she had been very shy of allowing
any one to come within reach of her, then
ran on a few yards before him contin-
uing her neighing; then, as he did not fol-
low her she returned to him rubbing
against him in the most demonstrative
manner. He attempted to drive her of,
struck her with stick, and followed her
few yards to frighten her away. AS soon,
however, as he turned toward the house,
she returned and tried in every way to pre-
vent him doing SO. He then remarked
that her colt was not with her, fact which
he had not noticed before, as it was quite
dark. 1t occurred to him then to follow
her, which he did. So soon as she saw he
was doing so, she ran off before him, stop
ping every few yards, turning around to
see that he was still following, then again
running on keeping up her calling, until
she reached distant part Of the field, where
she stopped at an old prospect hole"
On coming up with her she again COM
menced rubbing against him, and drew his
attention to the hole, where he soon dis
covered the colt. 1t appears it had slipped
into It and was unable to get out, and the
mare had taken this method to obtain as
sistance. Being unable to get it out alone.
Mr.. Fletcher went for some of his neigh
bors and with them returned. While they
were taking the little fellow out, the mare
manifested the most intense delight and
seemed almost beside herself with joy; and
afterwards, when the men had got out of
the hole,s she came up to Mr.. f., and
placing her nose on his shoulder gave
every sign Of gratitude that human
mother might under similar circumstances.

Peter Cartrlght and Gen. Jackson.

The following incident happened in Nash
vile, Tenn, during an Annual Conference
and is thus narrated in the famous Peter
Cartright's Autobiography:
" Monday evening came the church was
filed to overhowing. Every seat was crow
ded, and many had to stand. After sing
ing and prayer, Brother Mac (the preacher
in charge) took his seat in the pulpit. l
then read my text, What shall it profit a
man If he gain the whole world and lose
his own soul?' After reading my text
paused. At that moment saw General
jackson walking up the aisle. He came to
the middle post, and very gracefully leaned
against it and stood, as there were no va
cant seats. Just then felt some one pull
my coat tail in the stand, and, turning my
head, my fastidious preacher (Brother
Mac, whisperinga a little loud, said, sGen.
jackson has come in Gen. jackson has
come l felt flash of indignation run all
over me like an electric shock. and, facing
about to my congregation, and purposely
speaking out audibly said, "Who is
Gen. Jackson? If he don't get his soul
converted, God will damn him as quick as
He woald Guinea negrop'

lock was all right. Then turned the key
with a sharp click, which sounded to me
like the report of pistol.
There p cried, and sprang into the
kitchen, locking the door behind me.
He came out of his prison, swearing like
a trooper.
"Sharp old Satan, she's locked herself
up somewhere" trying the kitchen door as
he spoke. "Good night, Madame Dell

them for an hour, when she died, positive
