That PERMIr.-The item published in the
BULLETIN on Wednesday morning in relation
to the Charity Hospital permit. the receipt for
which it was asserted Was destroyed by po-
lice officer, in attendance at o certain enter
tainment, was based on information which
proves to have been erroneous. The enter
taiument was private one. and the Charity
Hospital license was not necessary, and the gen.
tlemen in control very properly refused to pay
it. The police officer took the permit and
filed it in the station with the city permit.

VALUABLE BOOKS.

Two of the most interesting books that
have been published relating to the personnel
of the South during the war are tho personal
g "reminiscences of Lee" by Rev. j. VIM.
Jones, and the "Life of Stonewall Jackson, y
by the same author and John Esten Cooke.
The splendid opportunities possessed by both
of these gentlemen to acquire thorough and
authentic information relative to the lives and
characters of these two grea linen render their
biographies reliable and comprehensive. Jno.
ESten Cooke has already won quite an envia-
BILE reputation as an author from his "Sur-
vey Of Eagles Nest" and other interesting
works. Rev. Mr.. Jones was for many years
the friend and associate Of both Gems. Lee
and Jackson, and was in daily association
with the former from the close of the war to
the day of the great hero's death.
The books are offered for sale in this city,
by subscription, by Mrs. S. NJ. Wevere, of
Richmond, Virginia, q lady who comes to us
from the great State that gave birth to both
these Southern heroes, and who is now d.
recting the attention of our public to the
value of these biographies of her honored
Virginians. Mrs. Wevere is lady of culture
and refinement, the widow of a Confed-
crate soldier, and we bespeak for her the
kind consideration of our citizens. Mr.. j.
n. Colby, at No. 20 ST. Charles street, is the
general agent tor the sale of the books.

The Romance of Ten Dollar Bill.

The Albany Argus tells the following
story: A Cohoes IN. W man was re-
Gently sent to the penitentiary in de-
fault of ten dollars to pay his fine. A
highly esteemed Trojan, feeling an in
terest in the impecunious citizen, pro-
ceeded to Albany and paid the fine with
ten dollar bill to the deputy superin-
tendent of the penitentiary. The deputy
superintendent handed the ten dollar
bill over to a convict, whose term had
expired, and who was only waiting for
the customary donation to lo1 & term
prisoners before leaving. The liberated
convict proceeded to the business part
OF Albany and attempted to purchase
goods with the money. The merchant,
glancing doubtfully at his convict garb,
Concluded that he must be willful
passer of counterfeit money, and
straightway the freeman of an hour
found himself again under lock and key.
The for once unjustly accused e17con.
vlct communicated by messenger with
the deputy superintendent, who soon
appeared and freed him. The deputy
shortly after startled the estimable Tro-
jan by appearing at his Office and de-
mnnding eleven dollars to make good
tho suspected bill and his expenses. The
demand was suitably honored, and tho
Trojan received back the supposed
counterfeit. A number of Troy experts
then pronounced the bill perfectly good,
and the Trojan telegraphed to the
deputy superintendent to return the
surplus dollar paid for travelling ex-
penses. Here was an unfortunate ex-
convict prosecuted, an estimable Tro-
jan suspected and q jealous prison off,
cinl put to great deal of unnecessary
trouble and some unnecessary expense,
all for the reason that an Albany mer-
chsnt Jumped at conclusions and de-
citled that ten dollar bill in the hands
OF penitentiary guest must necessarily
be q counterfeit.

Continental Officers.

Mr.. Scudder, i'll recent work, tells
this fact, which he says may be relied
on as correct: DIR. Fayssoux, joining
tho army of Gen. Greene, in North Car
oina, called at the hut of Gen. Huger,
the second in command, and was refused
admission. The doctor insisted on his
right to enter; the sentinel, in conform
ity to his orders, denied it. The alter
cation was heard by the general, who,
recognizing the voice of his friend, de-
sired that he might be allowed to pass
into the hut.
Pardon me, DOCTOR" said the gen.
ernl, who lay on the ground, wrapped
up in an old military cloak, "for giving
you 80 ungracious q reception but the
fact is. the chances of war have robbed
mo of every comfort, and 1 confined
myself to solitude and an old cloak while
my washerwoman prepares for future
occasion the only shirt I own." If an
officer of distinguished rank, universally
loved and respected, for whose accom-
modation there was not on individual
in the service who would not have made
sacrifices, was thus circumstanced, what
must have been the miseries of the low
or grades, and wretchedness of the pri-
vate sentinels

Babies Legs.

Bow legs and knock-knees, common
deformities, are said to arise from the
afflicted one having been put on his or
her feet too early in babyhood. But q
physician thinks differently, and we
commend his statement to mothers who
desire that their babies shall be physi-
cally upright:
He attributes the bow legs to habit
some youngsters delight in of rubbing
the sole of one foot against that of the
other; some will go to sleep with their
soles pressed together. They appear to
enjoy the contact only when the feet are
naked they do not attempt to make it
when they are socked or slippered. So
the remedy is obvious, keep the baby's
soies covered.
Knock-knees the doctor ascribes to O
different childish habit, that of sleeping
on his side, with one knee tucked into the
hollow behind the other. He has found
that where one leg has been bowed in
ward more than another, the patient has
always slept on one side, and the upper
member has been that which has been
most deformed. Here the preventive is
to pad the insides OF the knees, so as to
keep them apart, and lot the limbs grow
freely their own way.

the river in the night-all but seven
teen, which were burned near the che
Vaur de frise.
Some of the massive beams were re-
moved with great labor, and soon the
British feet, with its interminable line
OF transports, lay at anchor in the Della
ware opposite the city. But Franklin
and his men did their work so well that
many years passed before all the beams
and sunken vessels were got out of the
channel. In 1884, some ingenious me-
chanic invented a machine which drew
them, one after the other, from the deep
mud ut tho bottom of the river, to the

An AfterthOught.

We felt the grass flow round our feet
In currents cool and palpitsnt;
The cherry blooms above hung sweet,
Through riffs in which, with horn aslaut,
Aud clear as ice, we saw the moon
Swim in the suns bright wake at noon.
She Was so young she knew not love,
But b!ushed for Joy, rs flowers do
When winds blow warm. It Was enough
To heat a mans heart through and through
To see her eyes and feel them lure
His own to plunge in deeps 20 pure.
I could not frame phrase whereof
The import might in tender way
Make her hearts fountain gently move;
Somehow my words were all astrsy;
Save those to name the simplest thought
The cunning Of my tongue was naught.
Oh, blundering olod! Oh, timid sot!
To let life's crowning crisis pass
To be king and know it not!
The sharded insect in the grass
Had better nerve and clearer brain!
But who can call time back again?

Peat for Fuel In England.

When the price of coal rose a short
time ago to an exorbitant height an at
tempt was made to introduce peat as
fuel. This attempt has not been alto
gether unsuccessful, aud the preparing
of peat for fuel has, according to the
Scotsman, been renewed to a great ex-
tent in Perthshire, especially by those
farmers and crofters who ale far removed
from railway stations. In the glens and
billy districts OF the country peat cut
ting has been extensively prosecuted
this season. and the weather has been
all that could be desired for drying and
preparing the fuel. About half a GEN.
tury ago, when smuggling was carried
on in Perthshire on large scale, the
illicit stills were always found to be
placed in spots near to where supply
of peat could be easily procured. II
was customary not many years ago in
several districts for children attending
school to carry a piece of peat along
with their books daily for the school.

Marry and Settle Down.

DR.. Dio Lewis having learned the
minimum quantity of food on which
life can be sustained, advises all young
men to marry and settle down in life.
His idea is that "until man is married
his life is lackiug in that which best de-
velops his manhood" He gives cold
bachelors" some hard raps in letter
published lately, and then ministers
this rebuke to that class who are anxious
to see the world before marrying: "See-
ing the world as tho young man does
who has to earn his living as he goes
al 'Dg amounts to very little. What he
does see is nothing that helps him fight
the battle of life more successfully. It
only keeps him in habits which are in
direct antagonism to correct and happy
and successful life, and when he gets
through knocking about he has moth
ing to show for the misspcnt years save
the habits which he must overcome if he
would make anything of himself. Do
you call that gain or loss ? SO, young
man, take the advice of man who has
kept his eyes opened for moro years thaa
you have lived, probably; and don't
knock around If you think have
ovcrdrawn the picture, look around
you, and out of the men you know se-
lect those who have knocked around" ="
and sec if they do not bear witness to
the truth of every assertion have made
concerning the class they represent.
Are they men you envy2 tell you,
boys, knocking around makes man
good for nothing else, and 1 take it you
have desire to be good for something

A Chicago Wife.

Not long ago a married woman on
Pine street, Chicago, asked her husband
for new summer hat and suit, so that
she could make that hateful creature in
the next block see that there were other
people beside her ladyship that could
dress decently. Owing to the stringency
of the money market he declined to fall
in with her overtures. She did not
press the subject, but o few days after
ward she came to his side, and leaning
her head softly on his shoulder, said !:
"Darling, If you were to be hit on
the head with o hammer, or something
of the kind, so that it wouldn't kill you,
but hurt you good deal and put you
out of your mind, wouldn't they make
me your guardian, and administrator Z"
"Very probably they would, pussy"
he replied, fondling her golden curls,
"but what funny question for you to
ask" "And then" she continued, ap-
parently not having heard the latter
part of his sentence, "and then I could
do all that liked with things, and my
name would be the same as yours at the
bank and 80 oni" "Certainly, pet, he
responded, and she, giving him an affeo-
tionate embrace, hurried away. Tho
thing somewhat perploxed him, but he
dismissed it from his memory until very
recently, when he met hardware dealer
of his acquaintance, who said: "Tell
your wife I sent her the biggest ham,
mer we had, but what in thunder did
she want 80 large hammer for o"
Then cold sweat broke out all over
that young man, and Fastening home, he
told his wife he had just collected bad
debt, and here were $3.50 for her to get
that suit and hat with. And she kissed
him and said she would not take it all,
since times were 80 hard, and they must
make every cent go as far as they could;
but he insisted that she should, and she
yielded like dutiful wife, and when he
had gone out she took the hammer from
behind the washstand, sent it back to
the hardware store, and told them she
wouldn't need it, but to send her its
worth in self-sealing preserve jars.

Servfans I'm Camp.

The special correspondent Of the Lon
dan Standard at Belgrade gives the fol-
lowing description of the Servians in
camp at Topchider:
Twenty minutes walk from the hospi-
tai is the beginning Of sloping plain,
and there lies the camp: The first view
OF it was startling; the widest dreams
of the most skillful arrauger of mas
querades never approached this varied
and lively picture. At the extreme left
were o number Of covered carts, drawn
by animals which in size resembled
dogs, when compared with our drsy
horses. These carts were most of them
driven by boys, old men, or young girls,
and contained the baggage Of the divi-
sion; some Of them had also casks of
rakieh (spirits), and q crowd of thirsty
militiamen surrounded these.
The men, when not exercising in
companies, were either lying down or
standing about in little groups. All of
them-almost without exception be-
tween the age of forty and ffty-wore
the dress of the Servian peasants-a
short jacket of gray linen or coarse
brown cloth, wide trousers reaching to
the knee, looking like o sack behind,
some thick colored material bound round
the leg from the knee do INWARD, and
their feet enveloped in all sorts OF rags,
thrust into sandals made of reddish
brown untanned leather, and bound by
straps-a very practical covering for the
feet, but often of colossal dimensions.
A leathern girdle, or red shawl Of great
length, is worn round the waist. Many
have revolvers stuck in the former, from.
which number Of straps hang down,
and to these are attached knives, tinder
for striking o light, and other articles
considered indispensable by the Servi-
ans. Instead of q knapsack, they have
only the ordinary thick woolen sacks, SO
often to be seen hanging on the backs
of the horsea; these had been well filed
by the wives of the men with bread,
mutton, cheese, and plenty of onions
and leeks-the latter o choice delicacy
among the Servians, the dreadful odor
of which makes the n1ehanes Cinns) al
most uninhabitable TO European trav-
elers.
Finally, every one had the national
drinking vessel hanging at his side-a
gourd followed out in the shape of two
cylinders united by ball. The gourd
bears q great deal Of knocking about, is
light, and keeps the fluids il contains
fresh. A few Of the men were in Euro
pean dress, except that sandals were
worn instead of boots, and there were
alec Roumanians and Zingaris in long
shirts of coarse linen, worn outside the
trousers, and Bulgarians (Roumanians
and Bulgarians come from East Servia)
in thick wooden coats, which years ago
had been white. The Gypsies were very
numerous, all in the Servian dress, but
easily to be recognized by their dark
skins, the dozens Of gold rings on their
fingers, and the large families that sur
rounded them. The State supplies each
of the militiamen with q new gray mill
tary cloak of Austrian cut, manufactured
in that country; blue cap, also copied
from the Austrians; an ammunition
pouch, and another little one for percus-
sion caps, both attached to black strap
round the waist; and an old Russian
musket, with three edged bayonet.

and weighing over four hundred pounds.
When the landwehr was lately mustered
to attend the artillery practice no proper

good for nothing so far as activity was
concerned, he was granted his dismissal
