fancy the rules under which the Brit

his being are rather more severe than
those of any other nation. When
the Zulu war broke out | was a pri-
vate soldier, stationed in Portland,
England. Ny friends, who had pur-
chased my discharge more than once
before, were, knew, negotiating to
do so again. But | did not want to

transport that carried me to the seat
Of war was another volunteer from
the same regiment who had joined
the Ninety-tirst Highlandcrs. His
name was Bernard Reilly, but he
was known merely as Barney. T
think he was the most worthless SOL
der ever met. He had been eight
! years in the army, but his whole
time Of service did not count for
more than two years. The remain
der of the period had been passed in
the guard-room. He was reckless,
good natured, gallant fellow, howev-
er, and though we used to ridicule
him numerically he was tavorite
both at home and abroad.

Jagged behind so often and so long

am well pleased with it and think as
county paper it surely is second to
none.
Not noticing any news from from
this corner since I have been reading
the REGISTER I thought I would try
to contribute my mite though it may
perhaps find its way into the waste
basket as many others have in other
localities in times past; yet we will
make this venture and should we
never see it in print we will take no
offense.
