One Of John Phoenix Stories.


Out in certain Western fort,
some time ago, the major conceived
that artillery must be used effective.
ly in fighting the Indians by dispens-
ing with gun carriages and fastening
the cannon upon the backs Of mules.
So he explained his views to the
commandant, and it was determined
to try the experiment.
A howitzer was selected and
strapped upon an ambulance mule,
with the muzzle pointing towards the
tail. When they had secured the
gun and loaded it with ball cart
ridge, they led the calm and steadfast
mule out on the bluff and set up a
target in the river, to practice at.
The rear of the mule was turned to-
wards the target, and he was backe d
gently up to the edge of the bluff.
The officers stood round in o
semi-circle, while the major went up
and inserted time-fuse in the vent
of the howitzer. When the fuse was
ready, the major Lit it and retired.
In n minute or two, the hitherto
unrutiled mule heard the fixing back
on his neck, and it made him uneasy
He reached his head around to as
certain what was going on, and as
he did so his body turned, and the
howitzer began to sweep around the
horizon. The mule at last became
excited, and his curiosity became
more and more intense. In q second
or two. he was standing with his
four legs in a bunch, making six re-
volutions per minute, and the how
itzer threatening sudden death to
every man within half mile.
The commandant was observed to
climb suddenly up tree; officers
were seen sliding over the bluff into
the river, as if they didn't care at
all aboSt the high price of uniforms;
the adjutant made good time to-
wards the fort; a sergeant began to
throw up breastworks with his bay
onet; the major rolled over and
groaned.
In minute or two there was
puff of smoke and dull thud, and
the mule--oh ! where was he ? A
solitary brute might have been seen
turning successful back-somersaults
over the bluff, only to rest at anchor
finally with his howitzer at the bot
tom of the river, while the ball went
off towards the fort, hit the chimney
in the majors quarters, rafting the
adobe bricks down into the parlour,
and frightening the majors wife into
commissions. They do not allude to
it now, and no report of the result of
the experiment was ever sent to the
War Department.

Mr.. Tennyson and the Composer

When a celebrated composer of
ballad music had set the "May
Queen" to music there visited him
one evening a graceful gentlemen
in little camlet cloak, who asked
the composer to sing the song. The
musician explained that for some
reason he could not do so, and then
the stranger said,-
But am Alfred Tennyson, and
] thought that since you wrote the
music and | wrote the words you
might sing it for me-"
But, Mr.. Tennyson, l cannot,
for you know ] am under engage
ment to-"
eyes, l know, but since you
wrote the music and ] wrote the
words, I should think you might
sing it for me-"
FIJI q " the singer could refuse no
longer, and as c sang he heard sobs
behind him. When he had finished,
the stranger said, in voice choked
with tears
All, l never knew before that l
could write SO beautifully"
He clasped the singers hand, and
in n moment WAS zone.

Gen. wolseley as Prophet.


When Gen. Wolseley started for Egypt
il was reported from London that he had
promised 70 finish up Arab Pasha and
dine IN Pail Nah on September 18th. He
failed to do that, but he bad done pretty
well by the time specified. he had op-
portunity 20 dine, il not luxuriously, at
least as a cunqueror, at Tel-el Kebir,
Zagazig or Cairo, The London Times
was pleased with the victory of the Brit
ish General, and on receipt Of the report
Of his successful battle remarked: 1.-The
whole plan Of the campaign was settled
by Gen. Wolseley, with the concurrence
Of his superiors and the hearty acquies-
ance of his chief advisors, before he
left England. Before he left england he
placed bis finger'upon TellelKebir, say
ing that Arab would stand, and we
should attack him on the 18th Of Sep
tember.' This is doubtless true, but it
is also exceptionally neat. The original
forecast turned out to be wrong, which
was no more than might have been ex-
pected, inasmuch as it was made prema-
turely. But the last forecast being put
forth only after the event, was bound to
come out on its feet. There is everything
in the way things are done.

A Word to Girls from MOtherly
Source.
TX. c. Saturday Herald

' TX. c. Saturday Herald.l
Ifyou are fortunate in possessing beau
ty, my dear girls, be thankful for the
gift, but do not Over-rate it.
The girl who expects to win her way
by her beauty and to be admired and &C.
cepted simply because she is lady has
the wrong idea.
She must secure lovable character if
she wishes to be loved, and my advice to
all is to lay the foundation of a perma-
nent influence.
To win and hold admiration you must
cultivate the gifts that nature has be-
slowed upon you. If you have talent
for music. develop it: learn to sing some
choice songs and to perform upon some
instrument. for many are charmed more
by music than by handsome features.
Pursue the same course with regard to
painting, drawing and designing, and if
you have the power to obtain useful
knowledge in any direction, do it.
I have heard young men in speaking
of their young.lady acquaintance say,
"Oh! they look well, but they don't
know anything" There is no necessity
for such state of things; books are cheap
and accessible. If you labor all day in
shop or store, still at odd intervals you
can gather up an education and contend
with no greater difficulties than did Clay,
Fillmore, Webster and others of our great
est men.
If you go through life a fitting but
terfy, how will you be spoken of by-and.
by? I own it is nice to eat. drink and be
merry. and be courted and fattered by
all your friends; but how much better
to cultivate character, sense and true
womanliness!
