IT, Didn't Hit,

There was . chap on the boat who
lived at jackson, Miss, and he was tell
ING Us many anecdotes regarding the
negro population. Among others, he
had q friend who one day asked of an
aged darkey:
s.Well. Colonel, what particular ossi-
fcation has predominated over the
qualifications of late?"
The old man gave a pull at his hat
with one hand, and scratched his head
with the other, and answered:
ssWall, sab. I reckOns dat was him
irvine down de road q few minits ago
on top of q mewlr!'
There was a passenger from Rhode
Island who was greatly amused by these
anecdotes, and two or three times
afterward I caught him hunting in a
dictionary for big words and stripging
them together. When we arrived at
Natchez he was all. loaded up. A lot
of us went up to see the town, and as
we gained the crest of the long and
dusty hill we met a colored woman on
her way down. Here was the chance
the smart Aleck had been waiting for,
and he halted her and demanded:
MADAM, have you systcmized the
disability of the precocious influenza
this morning?"
He was bowling and smiling, and she
looked thunder-struck. After a minute
she asked:
whats dat you remark"

removed the basket from her head,
''but LIE gwine to right away!"
With that she brought him a clip
with her hand on the ear, and followed
it up by butt in the back thatsprawled
him into the dust and left him gasping
like a fish.
IF de verboshity wants emo mo- he
can foller me down to de levee!" she
remarked as she walked off; but he
didn't. He was dust from head to foot,
his humorous nature had evapOrated.
and he got back to the boat to keep his
berth for the next eight hours. The
negro is an odd coon at times, but there
are other times when the Gigantic

A MUNlFiCENNT LOAN,

Dayton o. Special
Twenty years ago, when Judah P.
Benjamin, impoverished by the war,
was about leaving the then conquered
States to seek a home in Eng
land, a wealthy personal friend name
Reynolds, living in Mississippi, loaned
him 100000 without security and
without the scratch of pen. The act
was prompted solely by sympathy for
his needy friend, Mr.. Reynolds know
ing that if Mr.. Benjamin ever became
able he would repay the loan, and if
not the money would afford the relief
he desired to give him.
For 10 years past Mr.. Reynolds has
been resident of Huffman Hill one
of the most beautiful suburbs of Day
ton, and is one of the wealthest men
in the vicinity, and probably has more
ready money at his command than
any other person here. He is engaged
in banking, and is largely interested
in insurance companies and other ex-
tensive enterprises here, and in other
cities. 1t is not known certainly
whether Mr.. Benjamin ever repaid
Mr.. Reynolds the debt, but it is alto
gether probable, as the money had
enabled him to at once establish him
self in London, as result of which
he secured business from which in
the late years of his life he received
an income of 100000 per annum. 1t
is equally certain, however, that Mr..
Reynolds never broached the subject
to him or ever gave much thought to
the matter, other than the satisfaction
Of having been able to help his friend
in the hour of distress, This incident
has never before been told, bu. the! e
is little doubt Of its truth.
The Aberdeen examiner. [volume] (Aberdeen, Miss.) 1866-current, 1884-07-10
