WASHING DONE HERE.-An Ohio ex-
soldier tell the following good story:
While we were lying in camp at Rosa
vile, Georgia, the Sixtieth Illinois re-
turned from their veteran furlough with
number of recruits. One of these,
having exhausted his supply of clean
shirts, and not yet having learned to be
his own laundress, asked veteran where
he could get some washing done.
"Do you see those tents there by the
church Well, go over there and ask for
Mr.. Morgan. HO does washing. He is
a crusty old cuss, but if you talk pretty
nice to him he will do it for YOU"
The recruit went as directed, and found
General Morgan walking in front of his
tent, dressed, as was his custom, in the
uniform of a high private.
Where will l find Mr.. Morgan ?'
asked tbs recruit.
"My name is Morgan. What will
you have ?'
81 came to see if 1 could get some
clothes washed"
" Hm-m-m. Who sent you here to
get your clothes washed ?"
John Smith, over there in the six-
tieth."
" Corporal of the guard !" (The cor
poral approached and saluted) Young
man go with the corporal and show him
John Smith, SO that he can bring him
over here. And you come back with
them, and bring all the dirty clothes
you have"
They departed, and soon returned with
the guilty veteran and huge armful of
dirty shirts, socks, etc.
The General to Smith" Did you send
this young man here to have his clothes
washed ?''
y es, sir, for a joke"
For joke Well, we'll have th,
joke carried out. We do have clothes
washed here sometimes. Corporal, take
this man Smith and that bundle oI
clothes down to the creek, and have him
wash them and dry them and fold them
neatly, and return them to the owner.
See that he does the job handsomely.
The veteran went away to his work
sorrowfully, and tie General resumed
his walk. Erchan9e.

KISSING THE BRIDE.-The custom OF
kissing tho bride at wedding is OF great
antiquity, and while among the more re-
fined classes it has fallen into disuse, II is
still insisted on by many people with
great vigor. An amusing story is told OF
IL kentucky backwoodsman who had,
after long and ardent courtship of the
belle of one of tho Kentucky citios, won
her for his wife.
Sho had for long time wavered in her
choice, undecided whether to take him or
a gentleman of wealth and position in
the city, but finally chose tho humber
lot in obedience to her heart. The we'd
ding was celebrated in great style, and
the manly groom was almost as much
admired for his colossal proportions and
athletic symmetry as was the bride for
her exceeding loveliness.
Among the guests was the unsuccessful
suitor, who was well aware Of the jeal-
ousy with which the groom regarded him,
but who had overcome his chagrin at his
failure and was sincerely anxious to con-
graduate the bride. One by one tho
guests offered their congratulations and
hearty kisses, while tho groom looked on
with approval and delight. At length
came the rejected lover. The young
groom watched him keenly, but without
the least animosity in expression. The
unfortunate man felt the delicacy Of his
position, and not caring to provoke tho
husbands ire he did not profier the sa-
Lutte which was customary. As he was
giving place to others after wishing the
newly-married pair well, the groom
Rrasped his arm with his iron fingers, and
In low voice said
"She's my wife, and l propose to see
that she is treated as my wife should be
treated. II you don't kiss her I'll break
every bone in your body"
Rather than quarrel, the gentleman
kissed the not unwilling bride, and the
groom was satisfied.

A LEAP-YEAR PARTY.-For some
time past the corner of st. Aubin and
Clinton avenues has been infested during
the evenings with a crowd of boys rang
ing from twelve to seventeen years ofage,
who took it upon themselves to insult
pedestrians, especially ladies as they
passed. These proceedings became un-
bearable, and Thursday evening seven
ladies, each provided with riding whip,
marched leisurely to the unpleasant
locality and we're accosted by the usual
crowd. Then ensued lively chase, each
lady selecting a victim and following
him until captured. According to the
plans each lady was to return to the cor
ner of the avenues with their victim, and
upon counting noses it was found that
each one had made a successful chase.
The whips were then brought into requi-
sition, and during the next five minutes
series of well-executed howls indicated
that the work was being we'll done. Up
on being set at liberty the boys were
given to understand that the dose would
be repeated as often as necessary until
the patients were cured. .-DetToH Free

A ROMANTIC GANG.-The Paris po-
lice have just succeeded in capturing a
romantic gang of robbers. They are
women, who habitually passed as men,
and, in blouse and trousers, sought what
they could dovour. The band was well
organized, and bad long pursued its ca
reer triumphantly. A certain Annette
Roux, atlas Troppmann, was the chief,
and to her boldness tho society owed its
origin. The six did not live together but
close TO each other. Three were married.
The long immunity they have enjoyed is
owing in part to their habit Of disguise,
in part to salutary habit which forbade
them to "operate' in Paris, itself. There
is prey as rich outside tho Notifications,
and not tithe so much danger. And so
things went satisfactorily with Tropp-
mann & Co., until il happened to Mile.
Poillu, atlas Madame Henri, to fall in
love. She fell very deep indeed, and tho
object Of her young affections was AL
fred Robert, carman, who squinted,
but who was in other respects, an Apollo.
Like King Gyges, Of classic memory,
Mile. Poillu could not resist the delight
of showing her treasure TO onvious rivals,
and she presented her charming carman
to Mile. Sclafer, alias Bismark. Soon
was this confidence regretted. Black sus-
picions OF her friend arose. One day
the rival ladies concluded it was time to
betake themselves to action. They drew
long knives and hacked each other while
NJ. Robert looked on like Basl. The po-
lice ran in, the ladies we're arrested, and
in their wrath denounced each other and
all the band.

SHERMAN AND PRAYER. - General
Fitzpatrick, in his review of Sherman 5
campaign, tells the following story:
Shortly after our army had entered Sa-
vannah a number of clergymen called up
on General Sherman, and among other
questions inquired if they could hold di-
vine service as usual in the churches.
Certainly" said the General, Why
not? We are especially directed by the
Army Regulations to pay due attention
to divine service on the Lords Day. My
soldiers are all Christians ; certainly, ,.oper
your churches, we will all go.
"But," said digniled, saintly-lookinl
individual, ''some Of us are Episcopal
ians."
"Well, that is a good religion. Nc
objection to your religion, none whatev-
or, answered Sherman.
"But," said the clergyman, 1--WE are in
the habit Of praying for the President
and Congress-"
"That's right, pray for them no objec-
tions on that score"
"Yes, sir we pray for President Da-
Wis and the Confederate Congress-"
"Oh !" said Sherman. "you want to
pray for JEFF Davis, do you ?'
Yes sir" emphatically replied the
clergyman.
can right" said Sherman, bis brows
lowering. "pray for him, pray for the
Devil--pray for both of them the one
needs it as much as the other Is that all
gentlemen 2''
That was all-that was enough. They
had failed to induce General Sherman u
make martyrs Of them.

CULTIVATION OF NJ MUsHRoOns.-
room growing, as carried on in some
parts OF France, is so extraordinary as to
deserve mention. In the vicinity Of Par
is there are extensive caves, formed by
stone quarres long since Abandoned
In these caves, sixty or seventy feet un-
der ground, and extending great distan-
ces, the temperature is equal and the air
moist. and here mushroom beds are made,
and immense quantities of the plant are
grown for home and foreign markets.
An idea of the magnitude of the business
NAV be formed when it is known that
one proprietor has twenty.one miles OF
beds, another sixteen, another seven, and
so on through long list. In the raml-
fications of the cave of Montrouge, just
outside the Notifications of Paris, there
are six or seven miles run Of mushroom
beds. 1t is entered through a circular
opening like the mouth off well, and
the only mode OF descent Is down shaky
pole, furnished with crossbars, the base
of which rests in darkness sixty feet be-
low.

CHINESE CHILDREN.

| There are many curious ceremonies and
observances connected with child's ear
ly years, which it would be impossible to
describe in detail. The following arc
among the more noteworthy and impor-
tant. When the baby is month old,
its head is shaved for the first time, and
on this occasion thank offering is made
to certain goddess ; at the end of tho
fourth month family feast takes place,
and the maternal grandmother is expect
ed to make handsome presents, including
species of chair for the chlds use at
the end of a year, there are more thank
offerings, more feasts, and more presents
still later on there is the quaint ceremony
of passing through the door" These
and similar family customs have to be
constantly observed until the child "goes
out of childhood" an event which takes
place usually, though not necessarily, at
the age Of sixteen at this period tho
child becomes an adult, and is expected
to put away childish things. But al
though sons become men at this early
age, they are by no means exempted
from the parental authority, for, unless
they happen to be in the service of the
State when the emperor takes the place
of their parents, they are bound to yield
implicit obedience to their fathers as long
as they 1--we. The same rule, of course,
will DO understood to apply with even
greater force in the case of daughters.--
This is the strict theory of Chinese Gus
toms, but the practice OF everyday life
is necessarily not quite consistent with
it. In cases of extremely un6lial behuv-
Tor, 1t sometimes happens that parents
cite their children before u magistrate
and get them punished. Cases of parri-
eide and matricide are treated in very
strange manner among tho Chinese, for
not only are the murderers beheaded, but
cut up into little pieces their houses are
pulled down and tho foundations dug up;
punishment is even inflicted upon their
neighbors, and the very officials are de-
graded on account of such horrible crimes
having happened within their jurisdio-
ton. In reference to some OF the matters
of which we have just been speaking, it
will not be without interest to notice what
is laid down in reference to the various
stages of mans life sin the Book Of
Rites, a work which is held in the high
est esteem by the Chinese. From birth
till ton years old, it is said, man is called
child, and then begins TO learn until
twenty he is called youth, and is then
capped at thirty, he Is in his manhood,
and may marry at forty, he is full OF
strength, and may enter the magistracy ;
at fifty, he becomes gray, and may serve
in the high offices of State at sixty, ho
becomes advanced in years, and may di-
rect affairs +; ut seventy ho becomes an
old man, and may retire from the cares
Of public life at eighty and lninoty he
becomes indrm and iorgetful. Till sew
on, the child is an object of compassion,
and both he and the man OF seventy and
eighty is not liable TO punishment when
guilty OF crimes. When man reaches
a hundred years, then he must be fed
