II. called Down sh. Yankee.

Some years ago an English engineer,
now prominent in the official manage
ment of one of our great railroads. was
experimenting the construction of new
road in Pennsy ylvania. After supper one
evening he strolled into the settin' room"
of the country tavern, where some
twenty men were seated around the
stove, smoking aud chatting. A regular
Down East Yankee was expounding the
remarkable strength of the arch, its use
and application in mechanics, and illus
trating his remarks by paving a half
bushel measure.
"You amt no idee, said he, show
strong the arch is If We set it right--if We
know how. Now there's the egg-noth-
ms got prettier arch than the egg, and
if you set it right it's mighty strong.
Why, kin set an egg on this floor in
sich shape that We can't break it with this
half.bushel measure.
A general murmur of sneering disbe-
lief ran around the room; but the Yam
kee was game.
II said kin, and kin, and I'll bet the
drinks for the crowd on it. "
The engineer hated Yankee. and
though reserved man, he could not per-
init a Yankee to bluff whole party
with such an arrogant and preposterous
statement, so he quietly said:
II will take that bet. +"
An egg was brought in from the ekitch-
en- and handed to the Yankee. He took
it, and stood it upon the floor in the cor
her of the room where the measure
couldn't reach it.
The engineer did not even attempt to
fill square corner with round meas
ure, but paid for the drinks and retired,
sadder aud wiser.

When slavery existed in New
York, vne Dizzy owned a large
number OF slaves. The increase Of
the slaves and The increase Of lhe
abolition sentiment caused an
emigration of the slaves to more
thorough aud secure slave Sec
tons !; and the negroes who were
thus sent off (many being born
there) naturally looked back 70
their old homes, where they had
lived in clover, with feelings u
regret, and they could not imagine
any place like Dixy's. Hence i
became synonymous with an ideal
locality, combined with ease, CON-
bined with ease, comfort and ma
terial happiness In every descriP
ti"n. In those days negro singing
and minstrel we're in their infancy,
and any subject that could ~

with "Dixie." Il originated IN
