The Vicksburg Herald tells the fol.

Gently died in Dallas. Texas, was the
hero Of very dramatic story told in
connection with the siege Of Vicks-
burg. He was taken prisoner by the
federal army at vicksburg, in 1864,
when he was "a years OF age. He
was ordered out for fortifcation work
nnder negro guard. He claimed ex.
emption as a prisoner and refused 70

a white lieutenant, were sent 10 coerce
him with bayonets. He looked a mo.
ment at the squad and saw that they
meant TO impale him If he did not
obey the order. His situation de.
manded quickness and decision. He
seized a hatchet lying near-as Vir-
ginius snaiches a knife from the butch.

down on the floor of his prison, laid
out his left arm, and with two brave
strokes severed his hand completely
from the arm. He then rose and
shook the bleeding stump in the iace

life.

The evening Of every mans day is
coming on apace. The day of life will
soon be sfent. The sun, though it
may be up in mid heaven, will pass
down the Western sky and disappear.
What shall light mans path when the
sun Of life has gone DOWN. He must
travel on to the next world, but what
will illuminate his footsteps after the
nightfall of death, amid the darkness
Of his journey? There is an evening
in the natural world; its radiance is
bright and beautiful and cheering to
the benighted traveller. But life's eve.
ming star is good hope of heaven.
Its beauty and brilliancy are reflected
from the sun of righteousness, whose
bright rays light up the evening of
life, and throw their radiance quite
across the darkness Of the grave. It
has Illuminated the footsteps Of many
a weary traveller into eternity. 1t is
of priceless value-a thousand worlds
can not purchase it, and yet it is offer
ed without money and without price
to him who will penitently and thank.
fully receive it.

The editor Of the Marshal (Iowa)
Statesman says that, after considering
the question all winter, he comes to
the conclusion every spring that the
circus is immoral; but then the bill
poster comes along with his big pict-
ures, and his mind changes as follows:
As we gaze at the lions, tigers and
monkeys. and think that nature made
all Of them, we are not so sure. And
when we look at the beautiful young
lady, with nothing on but blue
ribbon round her waist, with one
leg pointing to six o'clock and the
other to high noon, and think that
nature made her, too, just as she was,
except the ribbon. We begin to lean
up to the circus. But when the brass
band begins TO play and the elephant
10 round We rush for a front seat to
get in ahead Of the church members,
who alwas wear stove-pipe hats, and
won't sit down in front.

"A gentlemsn was sitting at a din
ner party" says correspondent of
Vanity Fair, "next to a beautiful
lady whose dress was what the French
call the dueoilate. A servant was
handing round the ice, and the lady,
who was leaning forward, su ddenly
leant back, striking the servants hand
holding the dish, and the spoon con.
tanning lump of ice fell down her
back inside the decoiette dress. What
was the gentleman to do?" Dol
Why, he should have called for a
pair of tongs and lifted the ice out, Of

A PATIENT WAITER.--The follow
ing story Of an objectionable practi-
cal joke on trustful young woman is
told by the Watertown Times "a
young man from this city visited a
Carthage photograph gallery a few
days ago. The artist, whom he knew,
was out, and while waiting for his re-
turn, girl from Champion came in
to get her picture taken. The young
man told the customer TO be seated,
and pointed the camera at her, and
then slid down stairs. One hour and
fifteen minutes aiterward he returned,
and TO his astonishment there the girl
sat, just as he left her. Surprising ev-
cry thing was all regular, she inquir-
ed how much longer she would be
Obliged to look pretty"

Grsmmarians have been insisting
for many years upon the use Of the
proposition Gin before the name Of a
street, but il is only recently that we
have begun TO hear people say, II
live in Third street," His house Is
in Fulton Avenue" II ha- become
fashionable, which makes all the diff.
terence imaginable.
Richard Grant White says. "Hens
sit, not set"
"Catch" Is misused for "reach,
"overtake," get to"-as To "cstch a
train"
Extend" should not he used for
"ofier"-as he extended his hand.
"Loan" is not verb, but a noun
a man asks you for a "loan," but you
do not loan him money-you "lend"
il 10 him.
Partially" should not he used for
partly"
'Quite number" Is not q correct
expression.
The use Of splendid" to express
very great excellence is coarse.
"Transpire' means "to leak OUT
not "to take place" The particulars
Of an event may transpire, but not
the event itself.
Railroad depot" should not be
used--say railway station"
"Clarionet" and violencello' should
be "clarinet" and "violoncello. -

The strong attachment Of subscri.
bers to well conducted newspapers is
fully confirmed by publishers. "stop
my paper"-words of dread TO begin
ners in business-loose their terror af.
ter a paper has been established for a
term Of years. So long as 4 paper
pursues q just, honorable, and judi.
cious course, meeting the wants of its
customers in all respects, the ties Of
friendship betwess the subscribers
and the paper are as hard to break by
an outside third party as the link
which binds old friends in business or
social life. Occasionally defects and
errors in a newspaper are overlooked
by those who have become attached to
1t, through its perusal for years. They
some times become dissatisfied with il
on account of something which had
slipped into its columns, and may stop
taking Il; but the absence of the fa-
miliar sheet at their homes and offices,
for few weeks, becomes an insup-
portable privation, and they hasten to
take IL again, and possibly apologize
for having it stopped. No friendship
on earth is more constant than that
contracted by the reader for journal
which makes an honest and earnest
effort to merit its continued support.
Hence, q conscienciously conducted
paper becomes a favorite in the fam.
lily.

A female infant, born in a New

The only way to be happy is to take
the drops of happiness as God gives
them to us every day OF our lives.
The boy must learn to be happy while
he is learning his trade; the merchant
while he is making his fortune. II
he fails to learn this art he will be sure
to miss his enjoyment when he gains
what he has sighed for.
