HE DID HIS LEVEL BEST,

No matter if his skin be black,
Or if his skin be white,
He is man of honest heart,
Provided he is right.
Though lowly be his task on earth,
His future will be blest,
While others reached to highest aim
He did his level best.
No civic honors may attend
The tiller oil the soil,
No grand ambition win him from
The paths Of common toll.
Yet when the silken cord is cut,
And he lays down to rest,
The chaplet fame nor grander is
He did his level best.
Though humblest soldier in the ranks
Promotion does not meet,
May shame the man of golden bars,
Win victory from defeat;
Though laid away in shallow trench,
Arms folded on his breast,
Mans verdict is not history
He did his level best.
God bless the man of lowly lot,
Who swetens life with toll,
Who eats the bread that's honest won
Amid the great turmoil.
No poet pen may sing his praise
When he is laid to rest;
An epitaph more worthy is,
He did his level best!'

And How It has Been Rendered Into
Verse.
HEADQUARTERS FIFTEENTH ARMY Corps,
Camp on Big Black River,
August 8, 1868.
Hon. e. NJ. Stanton, Secretary of War.
SIk:-I take the liberty of asking
through you that something be done
for g. lad named Arion P. Howe, of
Waukegan, ILL.,, who belongs to the
Fifty-ffth Illinois, but at present at
home wounded. I think he is too
young for West Point, but would be
the very thing for midshipman.
When the assault at Vicksburg was
at it's height, on the 10Th of May, and
I was in front near the road which
formed my line of attack, this young
lad came up to me, wounded and
bleeding, with a. good healthy boys
cry, General Sherman, send some
cartridges to Col Malmborg, the men
are nearly out" "What is the mat
ter, my boy?" "They shot me in the
leg, sir; but I can 60 to the hospital;
Send the cartridges right away"
Even where we stood the shot
fell thick, and I told him
to go to the rear at once, would aU-
tend to the cartridges; and off he limp
ed. Just beforehe disappeared on
the hill he turned, and called as loud
as he could s'Calibre 54." have not
seen the lad since, and his colonel
|. (Malmborg) on inquiry, gives me the
address as above, and says he is a
bright. intelligent boy, with fair pre-
| liminary education.
What arrested my attention then
was-and what renewed my memory
of the fact now is-that one so young,
| carving a. musket ball through his leg,
| should have found his way to me on
that fatal spot, and delivered his mes
sage, not forgetting the very impor
tant part even of the calibre of his
musket-54-whichyou know is an
UNUSUAL one.
I'll warrant that the boy has in him
the elements of the man, and com
mend him to the Government as ont
worthy the fostering care OF som!
one of it's national institutions.
am, with respect, your obedlent ser
want,
W. T. SHERMAN,
Major General Commanding.

CALIBRE FIFTY-FOUR.
Major General Commanding

"Say, General, say!" the courier said
"a boy OF thirteen years.,
tsOur regiment's scant OF powder and lead;
Most out. the Colonel fears.
The men, they have held the ground, whllel
This message swiftly bore.
Be quick, and send 'em a fresh supply!
It's calibre fifty-four."
Now YOU are young" the General said,
''To run SO stern race;
Some older man might come instead,
Through such a dangerous place"
''They couldn't be spared" the boy began;
"I'in the youngest OF the corps;
And so-but, say, be quick old man!
It's caibre ffty-four."
"Now your hurt" the Generalsaid;
"There's blood here on your breast.
Go back to the rear and take by bed,
And have some needful rest"
"Not muchr' said the boy, with half-hid
sneer;
"Ican't be spared NO more;
My regiments nowhere nigh the rear
It's calibre fifty four"
"Butwhere's yourhorse?" the Generalsaidi
"Afoot you cannot be?"
"Oh, a cannon ball tore off his head,
And didn't come far from me;
And bullets warbled round, you bet
Zone through my right arm tore);
But I'm q horse, and colt to let!
I'm calibre fity-four."
'sYour parents, boy?' the General said;
"Where are they?-dead it seems"
| '"Oh, they are what the world calls dead,
| But come to me in dreams;
| They tell me to be brave alway,
| As father was before.
Then mother kisses me-but, sayl
Its calibre fifty-four."
'They'll soon be here" the General said,
s'Those cartridges you claim;
My staff's best horse you'll ride, instead
| OF that on which you came"
Away the boy, his spurs sharp set,
| Across the field of gore.
| Still shouting back, "Now don't forget!
It's calibre fifty four"

"The Future of the Negro"

"In the last number of the North
American Review "The Future of the
Negro" is presented by nine contribu-
tors. Mr.. Charles A. Gardiner looks
upon "forcible deportation" of the ne
gro" of the negro as impracticable. He
says: "Amalgamation in the south isa
possible, probable, and in actual pro-
cess of fulfllment. Hence the whites
must either amalgamate with negroes,
or they must migrate from the south, or
they must remain an inferior element
and submit to negro supremacy" Mr.
J, F. Morgan believes that the "ree
states of the Congo open to the Ameri-
can negro his first real opportunity to-
prove himself worthy of the
liberties and civilization with which
he has been endowed" Fredrick Doug
lass. saws: s'Drive out the negro andi
YOU drive out Christ, the bible, and
American liberty with him. ALI things
conspire to keep the negro here and
compel him to adjust himself to Ameri-
can civilization. Joel Chandler Har-
ris thinks that $50 long as he remains
ignorant the negro cannot but prove a.
source of danger. Ignorance is always
dangerous; it is especially dangerous
where unscrupulous men are found
willing to take advantage of it. The
hope is that the ignoronce of the negro
is susceptible of enlightment, and OF
this there can be no doubt" Prof.
Greener says: 'The most hopeful sign
for the negro in his indisposition to be
carried and cared for. He aspires to
own his house, manage his own planta-
ton. conduct his own business, teach
his own school. It is not his fault that
he cannot rid himself of the professed
philanthropist and the professed
politician. They will insist, despite the
negro's protest. upon praying, thinking,
preaching, voting, and caring for him."

Another Story About Ferdinand
Ward.

A wealthy resident of some pros
porous New England city called ON
Ward one day with a note of intro
duction from mutual friend. In the
course of conversation he remarked
that he had some money to invest,
and asked Ward if he couldn't tel
him of some chance to put it where 1t
would bring him % good margin OF
profit.
Ward said he really didn't know OF
anything just then He himself had
more money than he knew at to do
with, and besides he was too busy
with some big scheme of his own to
go into any outside speculation. OF
course this only whetted the New Eng
land mans appetite for investment,
and in the course ofhalf an hour he
induced the famous fnancierto accept
his check for $4,000 to be used
in one of the 1fblind pools" fof which
Grant & Ward made a speciality.
Three or four months later the New
England nsan appeared again. By that
time Ward had entirely forgotten him
and his check, and it was with great
difficulty that he coald recall his shame
and the amount of his investment.
sT believe there's something dueyou," +"
he said, after a brief conversation.
Taking down a large ledger he made
some brief calculations, and then OBJ
served with a pleasant smile, S'The
amount credited to you on our books
ia S1O2, 1854" Then to the bookkeep-
er, "Mr. Jones, will you kandly draw q
check to Mr.. Herkins s order for $bO2,-
764?"
Ward calmly turned to his work
again, while his visitor sat gasping Tor
breath. In the language of the day the
visitor was ''paralized. 1t was some
time before he could control himself
sufficiently to ask if there wasn't amy
chance for him to reihvest his money
and double it again; hut Ward didn't
seem anxious. and at last the stranger
took his departure, got his checkeertl-
fed at the Marine Bank, and returned
| to his native town. Thnee days after
he walked into Wards Office in COM
pany with four of the wealthiest ofhis
| townsmen. He had his certified check
the same one Ward had given him
in his pocket, and his friends were sup
piled with checks of their own. They
succeeded in inducing the fnancier to
accept about $3.50, 900 forinvestment
in another "blind pool" That was
exactly one week befnra the failure OF
| Grant & Ward.

ARKELL'S STRANGE STORY.
Going Through a Sea of Fire But No
Killed.

Going Through a Sea of Fire But Not
Saratoga Correspondence New York World.
One of the most active OF the men
darting in and out of various con-
ferences was W.. J. Arkell, the pub
blisher of the Albany Journal, and a
new force in Mohawk Valley politics:
He is very earnest in his advocacy OF
the claims of Joseph w. Drexel. Mr..
Arkell, who is only 81 years of age,
has a most remarkable history. He
is the son of Senator Arkell. He was
in his fathers factory when he was IL
years of age, at the moment OF a ter
rible gasoline explosion. The work
man who was with young Arkell was
blown out of sight. Not enough was
left of him to be gathered together Tor
identification. Young Arkell, who did
not lose consciousness, covered his
mouth and eyes and made dash for
the door. The building in which this
explosion took place became TILED
at once with a black smoke. The
boy butted his way with his
head through five doors, going
| literally through fire. In this
passage he became frightfully burned.
| The time of the accident was winter.
When he finally reached the outer air
he rolled IN the SNOW and left IN the
snow the front and back OF both his
hands and the covering of much OF the
| lower part of his face. He was burn
ed so hopelessly that the doctor for a
long time despaired of him. Senator
| Arkell, who was on one of the upper
floors of the building when the 'explo-
sion took place, escaped by dropping
| from a window down a fall OF twenty
five feet upon a strip OF bare rock.
His son was in bed for two years.
His face was so badly burned that 1t
was impossible for the natural skin
to recover it. His hands were equally
afflicted. Senator ArkeH discovered
in his readings experiments an theway
of transplanting skin from one per-
son to another. He asked the sur,
geons in charge of his son to try this
experiment. The result was one OF
the most interesting known In the
history of surgery. Upon the face Of
young Mr.. ArkeH there were trans.
planted $50 pieces of skin from the
arms of various people. The result Is
that his face was entirely built up, sc
that to-day, whilehe bears very heavy
scars, he yet looks very well consider
ing what he has been through. HI
has indomitable courage and pluck
and aspires to a high position as a
publisher of newspapers.
