"reminiscences of Old Hickory.

General jackson was not cultured or
accomplished, but he had a strong, we'll.
balanced mind, and he would go through
forests of sophistry and masses of legal
opinions, straight to the point. Gov
ernor Wise, who admired him greatly,
used to tell story illustrative of the
rough bark of Old Hickory's character.
During the administration of President
Monroe, General Jackson, in command
of some troops, invaded Florida and cap
tured Arbuthnot and Ambrister, two
Englishmen who, it was charged, 'in-
cited the Indians to depredations.
He at once ordered a court martial
and had them hanged, with but lit
tie time to prepare for their future place
of abode. He was arraigned for the Of
fense before the cabinet of Mr.. Monroe,
and Mr.. Adams, the secretary of state,
/ defended him on the high ground of in
ternational law as eXpounded by Grotius,
Vattel and Puffendorf. Jackson, who
had quarrelled with Mr.. Monroe, was dis
posed to regard the matter as entirely
personal. "COnfound GTotius; con-
found Puffendorf; confound Vattel, - said
he; 4" this is a mere matter between Jim
Monroe ana me-" 1t is also said of him
that, pending the question of dispute be-
tween this country and France in regard
to the demand for $1,000, 900, his mes
sage to Congress contained direct and
insulting threat to Louis Philippe. The
cabinet consulted and urged change OF
the phraseology. Mr.. Forsyth, then
secretary of state, adroitly changed
the language dictated by the President,
to soften it and make the message more
diplomatic in terms, and more conform
able to peaceful and courteous national
intercourse. But when Mr.. Donelson,
the Presidents private secretary, rea to
him from the proof Sheets jackson
stopped him when he got to the part
relating TO France. "Read that again,
sir, " said he; that is not my language
it has been changed, and will have nc
other expression of my own meaning thar

A Chirese Failure.

When a native of China doing business
goes to the wall, mandarin investigates
his affairs, and the result is usually about
as follows:
81 find that your household expenses
have been eight cents per day.
''Alasl oh mighty mandarin, l have an
extravagant family"
"Your rent has been sixty cents per
month. How dare you to incur such
expense on your small capitalY"
81 was in hopes times would improve. "
"And find among your items of ex-
pense such things as opera tickets, oys-
ters for Sunday, and smoking tobacco
for your grandmother. No wonder you
have to shut up shop and cause your
creditors to mourn"
"Oh, mighty mandarin, show mercy to
an honest but unfortunate man."
"Call yourself honest when you with
draw seventy cents of your capital to
buy your wife party dress2 Come to
the temple of justice"
At the temple the creditors divide up
the assets, and each one is then privil-
eyed to use a whip on the debtors bare

Durability of Bank of England Notes

Writing about the Bank of England
in Hd7per's Magdsine, William II. Ride
ing says: The album in which speci-
mems of the various counterfeits discov-
cred are preserved, also contains some
interesting proofs of the extraordinary
durability of the notes. There are three
notes for twenty-five pounds which passed
through the Chicago fire, and were sent
in for redemption by Mr.. r. H. Nottin,
paymaster of the Chicago and Alton rail
way. Though they are burnt to crisp
black ash, the paper is scarcely broken,
and the engraving is as clear as in new
note. There are also pound notes
which went to the bottom of the sea in
the unfortunate training-ship Eurydice,
and were recovered after six months i'm
mersion. They are not even frayed. The
paper is stained light brown, and that
is the only effect their long exposure to
saltwater has had. We are shown in a
small case covered with magnifying-
glass few charred fragments of paper
for which the bank paid 81 400. They
are the remains of several notes de-
stroyed in fire, and were redeemed at
their full value, the holders being
able to give their numbers and
dates, and tc satisfy the bank
that they had actually been destroyed.
There is another note in the album which
was in circulation 125 years before it was
returned to the bank for payment. No
note is issued twice. As soon as q note
is returned, even though it has been out
but few hours, it is cancelled. Very
often a note issued in. the morning is
brought back to the bank in the after
noon of the same day, but on an average
a ative-pound note is out about eighty days.
The notes have many strange adventures.
One of large denomination was found
keeping the wind away in the broken
pane of a cottage window. neither the
cottager nor his wife having any idea of
its value. Another, also for large sum,
the disappearance of which had led to
many wrongful suspicious and accusa-
tions, was discovered, after many years,
inclosed in the wall of the house from
which it had mysteriously disappeared.
/ One thing the notes will not endure.
They will hold together at the bottom OF
the sea, and come out of furnace intact,
but they will not outlast the scrubbing,
the bleaching, and the mangling of the
laundry. That trial, to which they are
sometimes subjected through the mad
vertence of ladies who send them to the
wash in their dress pockets, usually de-
faces them, though even after it theil
geauineness is still recognizable.

Travelling men as a rule arc not apt to
make ''bad breaks, " but sometimes they
do. The other day, on train coming
into this city, one of these gentlemen
wanted to sell out for a torn two-cent
stamp, but found no purchasers. On the
train was a particularly lovely young
lady, seated by herself, while in the seat
in front was perfect specimen of a
well-to-do planter The moist weather
had probably affected the old fellows
corns as he had taken off both boots
and planted his feet on the seat in front
The relief he had experienced had caused
him to drop into sweet slumber, and
well, it was just about this time that the
drummer sat down in the seat by the
young lady and commenced to make
things pleasant, after the peculiar style
OF drummers in general.
