"And I'm sorrier than ever not to
have a breakfast for you," cried the
girl.
"If you would give me your roses"
be said, with gallant grace, 81 should
not miss the breakfast"
She unfastened them quickly, both
clusters, saying archly, "With one con-
dIuon-that when you reach the reei-
meht, you will take them to Colonel
bird with my compliments"
"On my honor as a rebel" replied
the soldier, again bowling low, aud car

May the kind fates give me chance
TO tell that pretty rebel some day
that she gave her roses to 8 Yankee

The next two weeks witnessed many
rapid march and countermarch, and
LaNderdsle held its breath while the
dust of its streets blew first upon gray
coats and then upon blue. Meantime
our ravisher of the roses had gotten
safely back to his own place and his
own coat, and early In July entered the
little mountain town with Hunters
army. The gala look it had worn two
weeks before was gone, and g 8ullen
expression marked It's cOuntenance.
No women were to be seen, boys were
kept carefully In doors by anxious
mothers, and men had sudden &C.
cess Of feebleuess, leaning on canes and
halting in their gait in a way that was
very comical to one who remembered
their alertness two weeks before
Two hours after his arrival our ouon-
dam Mississippi man rang Mrs Brooks
door bell, and was answered by that
mat1On herself, with an air of dignified
defiance. After 81 great deal of trouble
in persuding her to allow him to see
her daughter for moment only, and
I'd her presence, Cary was summoned.
Again the soldier bowed low before her,
this time removing blue cap instead
of the old SLOUGH, ana returned her
withered but carefully preserved roses.

gains" he said; 81 did not reach the
One Hundred and First Mississippi,
but / have never doubted that it has

crate army-and the most fortunate!"
Whereupon the soldier showed that
he had practiced retreating.
There came q time when it was Col
onel Birds luck to reach Lauderdale
with his Mississippi regiment. The
Greville roses had faded, and Cary
could only find October leaves with
which to crown her radiance. Colonel
Bird was more than satisfied with the
result; he claimed a kiss for every
smile or favor given to others during
his long absence, and tkis brought out
the story of the Greville roses and the
so-called Mississippi soldier.
"But there is one comfort, Edmund"
said pretty Gary, tired of her lovers
uproarious laughter, II didn't give the
rascal any breakfast"

A Vegetarian Banquet in London.
t. J ames' Gazette

Nearly hundred persons employed
by the Marylebone Vestry were enter
tanned at "a vegetarian supper last night
MAY 11thl at the Walmer Castle
Coffee Tavern, Seymour place, Mary
lebone road, by DR.. and Mrs. Norman
Kerr. The rector of the parish and
DR.. Richardson were among those pres
ent. The object III view was to give
practical illustration of the economy
with which life could be maintained on
vegetable diet. The supper consisted
of three courses, accompanied by
brown bread and ~ cup Of cocoa for
each guest. A "hotch-pOtch" soup
was first served. 1t was com posed of
potatoes, turnips, carrots, leeks, celery,
green peas, parsley and butter. 1t was
palatable, and it is claimed for it that
it is nutritious. The next dish was a
pie made of haricot beans, -four onions
and butter; and then followed the
sweets, hot mess of rhubarb, rice
and sugar. The cost Of the meal was
less than 81 5s., being at the rate Of
Sd, each person.
