A Compliment Returned.

John Randolph was travelling through
a part of Virginia in which he was un-
acquainted, and stopped during the
night at an inn near the forks of the
road. The innkeeper was a fine old
gentleman, and knowing who his dis
tinguished guest was, he endeavOred
during the evening to draw him into a
conversation, but failed in all his efforts.
In the morning, when Mr.. Randolph
was ready to start, he called for his bill,
which, on being presented, was paid.
The landlord, wishing to have some
conversation with him, began as fol-
lows:
(Which way are you travelling, Mr..
Randolph ?"
"Sir?" said Mr.. Randolph, with a
look of displeasure.
81 asked" said the landlord, (Which
way are you travelling ?",
"Have paid You my bill ?"
Eyes"
''DO l owe you anything more 2"
.No.n
''Well Pm going just where please.
Do you understand Pn
"Yes.n
The landlord by this time got some
what excited, and Mr.. Randolph drove
off. But to the landlords surprise, in
Il few minutes the servant returned to
inquire for his master which of the
forks of the road to take. Mr.. Ran
dolph not being out of hearing distance,
the landlord spoke at the top of his
voice:
"Mr. Randolph, you don't owe me
one cent; just take which road you
please !"

SMALL CHANGE IN CALIFORNIA
just now there is a curious mosoic of
customs in California, with respect to
change. In early times no miner or
business man expected to give or take
the exact change. Anything less than
a quarter was too insignificant for any
Californian to recognize. A New York
newspaper was sold at two bits. A
quarter of dollar was recognized as
change. Finally a dime came to be
recognized as small change, although it
was very hard for the FOrty-niner to
come down. He was willing to sleep
in his blankets and do his own cooking,
but to recognize small change was too
much for him. In time the five-cent
piece made its appearance. 1t was an
honest silver coin, and was gaining
ground rapidly. But after while a
five-cent nickle made its appearance
base, bastard coin, well calculated to
excite contempt. There are now two
usages in this state one of which is of
pioneer times and the other of more
modern date. One discards any sum
less than a dime, and on all small
transactions will take so per cent. ad-
ditional rather than make the exact
change. The other recognizes the fact
times have changed that an article
sold for dime is not fifteen cents, and
that it is not honest to take it.-Sdn

reach him for some hours and, it is
claimed, till night-fall. 1t is clear that
Porter could not have prevented june
tiOn of the two rebel corps; whether
he ought not to have attacked Long
street, while Pope was waging the bat
tie with Jackson is more difficult
question. Both corps were exhausted
with marching and fighting, without
eating. In fact, according to Long
streets own testimony, his own inactiOn
was contrary to the orders of Lee. He
says:
| know of no terrific battle raging
that day from daylight till after dark.
If there had been should have known
it. Gen. Lees plan was for me to bring
on an engagement, and asked time to
make reconnaissance, which | did,
and deemed the plan hazardous from
seeing large numbers of troops in front
of me, which l afterward learned were
those of Gems. Porter and Mcdowell.
Because of the woods in front of me
thought my position a good one for de-
fense. In view of the impenetrable
woods, it would have been very haz-
ardous for Gen. Porter to take his COM
mand around the road to Groveton, and
if he had attempted it his forces would
have been broken up. Gen. POrter's
position checked my forces till it was
too late. If Gen. Porter had attacked
that day any time after ~ o'clock, my
forces would have annihilated him, for
the federal lines were then too much
extended and disjointed.
This agrees with the testimony of
Lees adjutant, who says that Long
street dissuaded Lee from making an
attack, on account of POrter's strong
position. AS to whether Porter should
have attacked Longstreet, Capt. Ran
dOlph of the 1st artillery testifies that
the order to attack, dated 4.30, did not
reach Porter till $50 or z and there is
considerable testimony to the fact that
the battle which ragged OH our right
wing did not engage the attention of
either complaint on our left wing. In
fact, Hooker's division was the only
one thrown against the rebel lines and
that against the advice of its command
er, and, not till nearly o'clock in the
afternoon. 1t was terribly cut up by
Hills corps posted behind a railroad
embankment. This was what Pope
called a general battle and expected
Porter to take part in. The great strug-
gle came on the following day, when
POrter's fresh troops bore the brunt OF
the fight.
Gen. Pope was an ardent and inde-
fatigable fighter, but no strategist. 1t
is pitiful to see how Jackson and Lee
"walked around him" at every point.
He had no perception of the ulterior
designs of his enemy, and took no ac-
count of the limitations of endurance
and of locomotion under which his own
forces labored. At the same time, his
effective force was small, and it was Il
period of most melancholy inc ipacity
in our whole military management.
Gen. Halleck was nOminally command
ing from an impossible saddle behind a
desk at Washington, pleading with
Mcclellan to send out force and find
what had become of Pope and the enc
my; Mcclellan was disappointed and
sour, and Antietam and the Fredericks-
burgs were still in the future. The
wonder is how we lived through it all.

''These Stupid Blacks"

That they are not altogether idiotic
is occasionally made to appear rather
significantly. In a class in Yale Col
lege not long ago was a colored youth
of high scholarship and fine promise.
In the same class was white student
from South Carolina, with nearly or
quite the same name, and consequently
seat at recitation next to the sable
scholar. Anent which occurred, sub
stantially, the following correspondence
between the Southern father and a
gentleman of the faculty:
"-SoUTH CAROLINA.

The Sense of Loss.

The following lines are carved
Aensal Green Cemetery, in memory
ANNA" of whom only the dates of
'irth, marriage and death at Funch
n Madeira, are recorded:
1t is not at the hour of DEATH
While mourning on the parting breath;
1t is not while we look our last,
The present all-forget the past;
1t is not while we watch the eye
Closing with deaths last quivering sigh
We feel our loss.
1t is not when we gently lay
The loved remains in deaths array;
1t is not while with noiseless tread
We gather round the sleeping dead,
And tor a few sad mourning days
On what was precious fOndly gaze
We feel our loss.
1t is not when loves labor done,
The coffin closed, we one by one,
With trembling awe, approach and kneel,
And on the lid a farewell seal
From lips that cannot speak prayer,
So deep the struggling feeling there
We feel our loss.
And when the last dread solemn rite
Ashes to ashes must unite,
In sable garb we stand around,
Bathing with tears the burial ground,
Which soon our treasure must conceal,
Then, then-indeed, grief we feel
But not our loss.
But when a few more days are gone,
And we yet weep, but weep alone;
When all is as it was before,
Save one we never can see more;
When others take that vacant place
So lately filed by one dear face
We feel our loss
All, many year may pass away,
And many a sunbeam round us play,
And many a cloud of heavy woe
Darken our pathway here below;
But joy, or grief. can ne'er efface
What memory's pen alone can trace
There is our loss.

TINS KIT.-It surprised the sinners
and newsboys around the Post Office
the other day to see ''Limpy Tim" come
among them in a quiet way, and to hear
him say:
''BOys, / want to sell my kit. Here's
two brushes, hull box of backing, a
good stout box, and the outfit goes for
two shillin's ~
"Goin' away, Tim ?" queried one.
"NOt 'zactly, boys, but want a quar-
ter the awfullest kind just now"
"Goin' on 'scursion ?" asked another.
"NOt to-day, but must have a quar-
ter" he answered.
One of the lads passed over the
change and took the kit, and Tim walk
ed straight to the counting room of a
daily paper, put down his money, and
said:
81 guess l kin write it if you'll give
me pencil"
with slow moving fingers he wrote a
death notice. 1t went into the paper
almost as he wrote it, but YOU might
not have seen it. He wrote:
'Died-Litul Ted-of scarlet fever
alged three yeres. Funeral tc-morrer,
Soh UP ~ ICNiH lciI WOu DruEn6r."
was 1t your brother ?" asked the
cashier.
Tim tried to brace up, but he couldn't.
The big tears came up, his chin culver
ed, and he pointed to the notice on the
counter and gasped:
"l-I had to sell my kit to do it,
b-but he had his arms aroun' my neck
when he d-died ~
He hurried away home, but the news
went to the boys, and they gathered in
group and talked. Tim had not been
home an hour before barefooted boy
left the kit on the doorstep, and in the
oox was boquet of flowers, which had
peen purchased in the market by pen
nies contributed by the crowd of rao-
ged but big hearted-urchins. Did God
ever make heart which would not re-
spond if the right chord was touched

A PHILOSoPHICAL TRAMP. - The
younger tramp appeared to be some
what disheartened, and was grumhling
that he did not like to he kicked about
like a dog. The elder tramp, large
man with rather cheerful face, but
very ragged exterior, rebuked his com
panion i'll a way that showed how the
average professional tramp views his
situation. 81 tell you," said he, with
careless glance at the apparently in
attentive Craig, "you ought to be glad
to have such good times. Here, take a
drink and don't he fool. I've been on
the road now several years, and l don't
want better life. l get living, and
that's all n man wants. Now, look at
those poor devils hurrying along to and
from work. They slave all day and
worry about it if they don't get chance
to do it. They work all day, year in
and year out, and give all the grub we
need te such chaps as me without think
ing much about it. You and lay here
and sun ourselves, for this is the chilliest
June | ever saw, and sleeping out this
forenoon near the river made me feel
cold. Will | catch cold from last nights
rain Well, suppose l do; Pm drying
off and warming up now, and if l have
whisky enough I'll drive out the cold.
l tell you there's no danger of any man
starving to death in this country if he
amt ashamed to wear ragged clothes
and has cheek enough to ask for grub.
These folks will toll and slave to sup
port us, and why shouldn't they, If
they are fools enough ?" And the tramp
laughed heartily and passed the bottle
to his companion, who was soon also
i'll the best of Misunderstanding EaqLe.
