From the New York Times.
There is a general impression at
Washington that the soldiers i'm our
frontier forts spend their spare time in
gambling. Naturally the Congressional
mind is filled with horror at the thought
that sinful games should be played by
men in the service of the United States,
and bills have been introduced by vari-
Ons Legislators to put stop to the prac-
tice. The President is understood to
have been greatly panied on learning
that the officers and men of the Federal
army are addicted to gambling, and the
other day, just before the appointment
of new Secretary of War, he called a
meeting of the Cabinet to discuss the
prOpriety of requesting Mr.. McCrary's
successor to issue an order prohibiting
gambling under heavy penalties.
Mr.. Hayes opened the proceedings
with brief speech, in which, after a
passing allusion tOfthe crops of the past
season, he said that he had learned that
gambling prevailed to very great ex.

A Witty ParsOn.

A Scotch clergyman named Watty
Morrison was a man of most irrepressi-
BILE humOr. On one occasion young Of
ficer scOffed at the idea that it required
so mnch time and study to write a ser
mon as ministers pretend, and offered a
bet that he would preach an hour on any
passage in the Old Testament without
the slightest preparation. MIR. Morrison
took the bet, and he gave for the text,
"And the ass opened his mouth and he
spake." The parsOn won the wager, the
officer being rather disinclined to en-
plOy his elOquence upon the text.
On another occasion Mr.. Morrison en-
treated an officer to pardon poor soldier
for some Offense he had committed. The
officer agreed to do so, if he would in
turn grant him the first favor he should
ask.
Mr.. Morrison agreed to this. In day
or two the officer demanded that the GER
emory of baptism should be performed
on puppy. The clergyman agreed to
it, and party of MANY gentlemen as
sembled to witness the novel baptism.
Mr.. Morrison desired the officer tOhOld
up the puppy, as was customary in the
baptism of children, and said:
"As am minister of the Church of
Scotland, 1 must proceed according to
the ceremonies of the church."
Certainly" said the major; 81 expect
all the ceremony"
"Well, then, major, begin by the usu-
al question: You acknowledge Yourself
the father of this puppyy"
ArOar of laughter burst from the
crowd, the officer took the cand idate fol
baptism away, and thus the witty min.
lister turned the laugh against the inf.
del who intended to deride the sacred
Ordinance.-[Er.
Two young Americans, Geo. Green OF
Texas and Frank Senter of Boston, were
in a mail coach near GuarajantO when
it was attacked by a band of 30 robbers
with .Winchester rifles. These young
men fought the whole band, killed five
and wounded several, compelling thu
others to retreat. Green was slightly
wounded.

The story Of the man who, having
hired horse to attend funeral and was
cautioned against overdriving, said he
would keep up with the procession if he
killed the horse, is retold in . different
shape Of an Illinois candidate for pemi-
patton to Office. Wishing to reach the
convention at distant town, he hired
horse at livery stable In spite Of
the candidates pounding and swearing,
the animal was so slow that the man.
did not get there until after the conveti-
ton had adjourned, and SO he lost his
nomination. He denounced the owner
for giving him such q beast. The pro-
prietor of the stable, on investigation,
discovered that the hostler had let him
have one of the hearse horses. "Hearse
horse, hearse horsew cried the baffled
politician. "Why, if a man should start
to funeral with such horse as that he
would not reach the grave till two weeks
after the resurrection"

AGONY WITH A BARK ON.

Milwaukee is great town. 1t isn't
big enough to rival Chicago in the CEN
sus business and, of course, can't hold
candle to the Garden City in the way
of wickedness. But when it comes to
right up and down ridiculous scene,
Milwaukee is there; in proof of which,
see the following from Peck's Milwaukee
san: There was the querest scene at
one of the churches last Sunday. It
seems that during the vacation, the seats
had been vanished, and somehow the
varnish was not right, as it was terribly
sticky. You know when you pull any
thing off of sticky varnish, that it
cracks. Well, the audience had all got
seated, when the minister got out the
hymn, and as the basement of his trous-
ers let loose of the varnish of his chair,
there was noise like killing a fly on
the wall with palm leaf fan. The
minister looked around at the chair to
see if he was all present, and that no
guilty mans pants had escaped and read
the hymn. The choir rose with sound
of revelry and after the tenor had swal-
lowed a lozenge and the bass had cough
ed up piece of frog and the alto had
hemmed and the soprano had shook out
her polonaise to see if the varnish show
ed on the south side, the audience be-
gan to rise. One or two deacons got up
first, with sounds like picket firing in
the distance, on the eve of battle, and
then few more got up, and the rat
thing of the unyielding varnish sounded
as though the fight was becoming more
animated, and then the whole audience
got on it's feet at once, and with sound
of rafting musketry. The choir sang,
"Hold the Fort" When the orchestra
had concluded the people sat down GIN
gerly, the services were short, and all
went home praying for the man that
painted the seats.

BADLY CONFUSED.

A Southern paper tells the following:
Soon after the battle Of Prairie Grove
three Confederate officers Of rank came
into the Union army to negotiate for an
exchange Of prisoners. Three Union Of
fcers were detailed to negotiate with
them. One day, while the commission
was in session, an old gray headed, gray
bearded Arkansas farmer walked in and
asked:
"Es this the provo's offs ~
Some one attempted to explain, but the
old fellow, being quite deaf, did not IN
derstand, and said:
Eyes, Pm good loyal citizen; I've got
my protection papers; I've been and got
paid for my forage. It's all right"
'tLook here" said Col. W, Of the
Union army, "you had better be careful
about what you say about your loyalty;
don't you see those gentlemen, over
there9" pointing across the table to
where the Confederate officers sat in
their gray uniforms.
The old man took ont q pair Of dilapi-
dated spectacles, and fitting them on his
nose, closely examined the gray uni
forms with their velvet collars and brass
stars. His hands trembled violently,
and he seemed quite frightened, but COL,
lected himself and said to the Confeder-
ates:
"Well, gentleman, meant no offence.
didn't know-fact is, I've allus been a
Southern man. I've jest got one son,
and he's with Marmaduke. The only
other man grown in my family that's fit.
for sarvis is my darter Sales husband,
and he's with Rector, and"
"Hold on, old fellow !" cried Col. W.
"What about your being q loyal citizenF'
He looked at the other side of the ia
ble.s Then he readjusted his spectacles,
scanned the blue coats took his hand
kerchief from about his neck, blew his
nose, leaned both hands on the table,
and said
"Well, gentlemen, this is little mix
ed, but you jest go on and fight it out
among yourselves. can live under any
government"
