A SMALL CHANCE FOR HIS MONEY.-A
Missouri paper, to illustrate hopeful feeling
that some men have when they are in debt,
tells of a farmer who owed Walt Perkins twen-
ty-fve dollars, and had owed him for years.
One day he met Walt and said, 'Don't be un-
easy, Walt, have the thing all fixed by which
can pay YOU" Walt asked him how he had
got it fixed, and the old granger said, "Well,
Walt, if nothing happens, next year hope to
raise good crop of corn and intend to trade
some of the corn for a yoke of oxen, and l
know an old man in St. Charles county that
owns an old mare and he wants to trade her
for yoke of oxen. Now, Walt, when I raise
the corn and get the oxen l will make the
trade for the old mare and then 1 will bring
her home and raise mule colts-and Walt, the
very first mule colt sell you shall have the

REDEEMING A NoTE.-The Okoloma Miss. J
Nears tells the following story:
"Old P. is well known in some parts as one
who never pays debt if it can be avoided :;
has plenty of money, and is jolly, rollickng
old chap; gets pretty drunk occasionally,
when, of course, some friend takes care of
him.
A few days since he fell into the hands of a
friend who held his note for sum of money
and as it was the last chance, the friend dived
into old P's. wallet, took out the amount of
the note, and put the note where the money
had been.
When he awoke to consciousness, as was
his wont, he took out his wallet to count how
much money he was out. Finding his purse
almost depleted, he thundered:
"How in the deuce did 1 spend so much
money!"
"You paid off that note held" answered
the friend.
"Well," muttered old P, quietly slowing
away his wallet, II must have been very
drunk"

TO MY MOTHER.
LINES BY A CONVICT IN THE OHIO PEN1TENr1ARY

I've wandered far from thee, mother,
Far from my happy home;
I've left the land that gave me birth,
In other climes to roam;
And time, since then, has rolrd its years
And marked them on my brow
Yet, I have often thought Of thee
I'm thinking of thee now.
I'm thinking of the day, mother,
When, at my tender side,
You watch'd the dawing Of my youth,
And kiss'd me in your pride;
Then brightly was my heart lit up
With hopes of future Joy,
While your bright fancy honors wove
TO deck thy darling boy.
Pm thinking Of the day, mother,
When, with such anxious care,
You lifted up your heart to Heaven
Your hope, your trust, was there:
Fond memory brings thy parting words,
While tears rolrd down your cheek;
Thy long, last, loving look told more
Than ever words could speak.
I'm FAR away from thee mother;
No friend is near me now,
To soothe me with tender word
Or cool my burning brow;
The dearest ties affection wove
Are all now torn from me;
They left me when the trouble came:
They do not love like thee.
I'm lonely and forsaken now,
Unptied and unblest;
Yet still I would not have thee know
How sorely I'm DISTRESSED.
I know you would not chide. mother,
You would not give me blame;
But soothe me with your tender words,
And bid me hope again.
Iwould not have thee know, mother,
How brightest hopes decay
The tempter with his baleful cup
Has dashed them all away;
And shame has left its venom sting,
TO rack with anguish wild
Yet, still would not have thee know
The SORROWS of thy child.
Oh! have wander'd far, mother,
Since deserted thee,
And left thy trusting heart to break,
Beyond the deep blue sea.
Oh mother, still love thee we'll,
And long to hear thee speak,
And feel again thy balmy breath
Upon my careworn cheek.
But, all there is thought, mother,
Pervales my beating breast,
That thy freed spirit may have flown
To its eternal rest;
And while wipe the tear away,
There whispers in my ear
A voice, that speaks of Heaven and thee,
And bids me'seek thee there.

elected, had the ill luck to lose prisoner from
Jail. The fellow made his escape to the coun-

prisoner was captured and yet he was not. If
he could not get out the sheriff could not get

How the Kentucky General Captured an Ar

How the Kentucky General Captured an Ar
sena1.
In fifteen days his squad had increased to
twenty-seYen men. Then he put into execu-
tion movement that stands for audacity un-
rivaled in that or any other war; At Newburg,
Warrick county, Indiana, town of about one
thousand people, twelve miles above Evans
vile, on the Ohio river, was garrison COM
posed of part of an Indiana regiment, alto
gether about one hundred and eighty men.
On the Kentucky side of the river and imme-
diately opposite the town, one lovely morning
in the early part of July, 1862, might have
been seen very formidable three-gun battery,
as observed from Newburg, but in reality three
harmless stovepipes mounted on wheels. The
pipes were manned by about dozen citizens,
who, through curiosity, had followed the dar-
ing "twenty-seven'' to see the effect OF the
ruse. Sending Lieutenant Martin, afterward
Colonel of the Tenth Kentucky cavalry, with
twenty-four men to cross the river mile above,
Johnston, with only three men, entered skiff
and pulled directly across to the town. Leav-
ing one man at each of the principal streets,
he advanced alone to the arsenal, hoping to
find it vacated and abandoned. Reaching the
door at the foot of the long spiral stairway
and pushing it open there stood eighty-nine
federal soldiers with their rifles bearing on his
breast, their fingers nerVOuSly pressing the
triggers and each waiting for the signal. Here
was situation to test a mans bravery. To
retreat was certain death to hesitate was also
dangerous He advanced and withhis double
barreled shot gun pushed up the first file of
rifles bearing on him, and in a clear, steady
command ordered the guard to stack arms and
''surrender at the peril of their lives" Dumb
founded, the entire guard came down stairs,
stacked their arms and were marched into a
room, at the door of which Johnston planted
himself until Martin, with his twenty-four
men, arrived. Martin coming, paroling 164
prisoners, and securing over 200 stand of arms
and ammunition, medicine chest. &C., were
hurriedly gone through with, to prevent an at
tack from the gun-boat Alert, then ascending
the river from Evansville. Reaching the Ken.
lucky shore safely with his captured arms,
Johnston did not protract his stay there in or.
der to test the unique battery of stovepipes.
But for all that this artillery that never fired
a shot, gave the inventor the soubriquet
s'Stovepipe" Johnston, and by which he was
familiarly known all over the Confederacy.-

DREAMS AND THEIR CONDITIONs.-Dreams
are night-thoughts, unchecked by the judg-
ment and uncontrolled by the will. It is not
true that we do not reason in dreams, that the
exercise of the judgment is wholly suspended,
and that the will is entirely powerless and
ceases to act. These faculties are not alto
gether in abeyance, but they doZe while the
subordinate powers of the mind-those which
play the part of picture carriers and record
finders -ransack the treasures of memory and
mingfe together in direst confusion, old things
and new. Imagination is not active, but it
remains just enough awake to supply the con-
Meeting links which give seeming continuity
to those parts of the phantasmagora which we
chance to remember on recovering perfect
self-consciousness, and which, being remem-
more than one dream, unless he has reused
from sleep more than once. This experience
has led to the inference that dreams only occur
at the moment or in the act of awaking.
There are dreams which take place in the pro-
cess of returning to consciousness exam
pie, those instantaneous scenes and spectacles
which are suggested by the sound or feeling
that rouses the dreamer but, in result Of a
long and close study of the subject with view
to discover the nature of dreams, and the laws
of dreaming, for medical purposes, in cOnnec-
tion with the treatment of sleeplessness, am
persuaded that dreams occur in the course of
sleep and are wholly forgotten.
That they do not and can not take place in
deep sleep is probable, because deep sleep is
general sleep, and when this state prevails the
subordinate faculties are sleeping, and the pic
lures and records, which compose dreams, are
not disturbed. To understand dreams, we
must understand sleep, and it is because the
two phenomena have not hitherto been studied
together that so little is generally known about
either
