A lInrd Ride with Hooker.

Soon after Fighting joe" Hooker
was installed ns commanding general
of the army of the Potomac, vice Gen
eral Burnside, he was visited Mt hs
quarters, near Falmouth. Va, by Presi,
dent Lincoln, whom General Hooker,
accompanied by several members Of
his staff, met at Aqua Creek. Now
General Hooker was not only u hard
fighter hut hard rider. A horse had
been provided for the president, and
when everybody was mounted AWAY
went the cavalcnde led by General
Hooker, ut full gallop, plunging
through the mud and darkness toward
Falmouth, some ten or twelve miles
away. Several times during the ride
MIR. Lincoln animated that an easier
pace would suit him better, but
Fighting joe kept forging ahead M.
I'll headquarters were reached. Every
body, including MIR. Lincoln, was cover
cd with mud from head to foot, and, ON
diSmounting, General Hooker, who
seemed to have enjoyed his ride, ad.
vauced TO Mr.. Lincoln, and, extending
pair of gauntlets, said, in n jocular
way: " MIR. President, keep these to RI.
mind you Of our ride tonight" mo,
replied the president, grimly surveying
his Undiscovered person, keep your
gauntlots; shall need nothing to re.
mind me of our ride tonight. - Baai-

A Bedouin Horseman.
Mrs. Dras.ey u Fraser's Mngazlne.

While climbing slowly up a steep bank
on the opposite side, u Bedouin of the
tribe of Ben lssacher, mounted on q
pretty, black mare, overlook us Mt full
gallop. He pulled up and joined our
party, and we talked to him for some
time through Karam. Albert offered to
buy his long spear with silver bound
JOINTS. AT one end was an iron point to
stick il the ground when not in use, and
1T the other sharp point Of steel. He
was a most friendly and atiable Bedouin,
and showed us all his arms-pistol,
sword, knife and so forth. When we
arrived Mt the rocky plateau at the top
of the hill he gave u sort of performance
tor orr amusement, galloping about
and whirling the lance with dramatic
etlrc. and many loud cries. AS he thrust
ut and parted thrusts from All lmagi.
nary enemy.
He turned and twisted his mare about
with incredible ease and swiftnee5, only
guiding her with halter, ioe the bit,
which is scarcely ever used except in
warfare, hung idly from the saddle all
the time. We rode together for some
distance, and ut parting he took the
charm from his horses neck--a cres-
cent shaped piece of wood, and pre-.
seuted it to me with most graceful
salaam. Altogether We were rather
pleased with our felow.traveler, until
old lIadji Hassan let out that his part
ing words had been d strongly-expressed
wish to find any two of us alone in a
place where he could usc his weapons
in earnest. Six together were beyond
his ideas, so he made the best of his
disappointment.

There was much gumpion evinced

another darkey an operation equiring

charged him twenty-five dollars for the
operation. Meeting the doctors SER
