TOBE,s MONUMENT.

The "seven-days' fight" was ended.
The battered remnants of the Army OF
the Potomac were encamped at Harri-
sons Landing, waiting for transports
to take them back to Washington.
1t was "after taps" a sultry, South.
ern summer night. On the extreme
edge of the encampment, on the side
nearest the enemy, a sentinel paused
in his walk, and peered cautiously out
into the darkness. "Psbaw p he said :
"It's nothing but dog" He was re-
suming his walk, when the supposed
quadruped rose suddenly, and walked
along on two feet, in a manner so un-
missakably human that the sentinel
lowered his musket once more and
shouted "Haltl Advance, and give
the countersignp p A faint, childish
voice said, Saint got none, massa."
"Well there now," said the sentinel,
"if it amt just little darkey, and
guess I've frightened him half to
death. Come here, SNOWFALL"
The child crept up, and said tremb-
ling, "Deed massa, | amt got muffin
to glib yer"
"Well, who asked you to give me
anything?"
"Yer done ak me for to glib yer suf-
fin jes' now and | amt got muffin
'cept my close what got on"
"Well. you needn't fret; / don't
want 'em. Corporal of guard Post
two"
The corporal hastened to "post two"
and found the sentinel with his hand
on the shoulder of little black boy,
who, between fear, fatigue and hunger,
was unable to give an account of him
self. "Tll take him to Capt. Leigh" +"
the corporal said she's officer Of the
day. Maybe he'll be able to get some
thing out of him."
The captain stood in front of his
tent, looking out into the night, when
the corporal and his charge approach
ed.
Captain" be said, "here's boy
just come into the lines"
"Very well, you can leave him
here"
At the first sound of the captains
voice, the boy drew nearer to him, as
knowing instinetively that he had
found friend.
"You can go into that tent and sleep
till morning" said the captain.

Leigh's FIRST question in the morning.

If the plants have been cut back and

Commence in the middle of the open
space between the rows, and leaving a
space 1S inches wide each side of the
row, build up the bank of earth as near

should bank at once and on opposite
sides Of row. This will place each
row of celery in the middle of bank or

should be kept level as much as the earth

Coop ADvICE.-Dr. Barnas Sears,
the agent of the Peabody Educational
Fund, said at n recent meeting:
81, too. have made tour of the South
and tell you the war is over. The
Southern people simply ask not to be
annoyed by reckless adventurcrs. Treat
them right and you win their confidence.
Send no injudicious man down there
with friction matches. Such man may
set whole States on fire. For lleaven's
sake keep your rash, partisan men at
home"

Tbgbip, had only been given and re-
ceived at the North 10 years ago, what a
world Of trouble might have been saved (!
