He ncckoned 10 would Run.

One of the most interesting characters
in American history is General Zachary
Taylor, "Old Rough and Ready" hero of
Buena Vista. father-in-law of jefferson
Davis and twelfth president of the United
States. We all recollect how Daniel
Webster sneered at him, before he was
nominated, as a "backwoods colonel.
and refused to let his friends put him on
the ticket for vice president with Taylor
for first place, thereby missing his last
and, as the sequel showed, best chance
of becoming president. Willard Fill
more, of New York, took the despised
second place and thereby had nearly
three years in the White House.
General Sherman used to tell an anus
ing little story of Taylor anent his nomi-
nation for the presidency. At that time
General Taylor was stationed at New Or
leans. He was Kentuckian and the
Kentnckians were very properly proud of
him. One day shortly before the conyen-
ton met at Baltimore he was approached
at New Orleans by an old Kentucky
friend, who said:
General, we want you to run for presi-
dent"
"who wants me to runr asked Gencr-
al Taylor seriously.
"Why, we do-all your old neigh
bors."
"Well, then, if that's the case" replied
the old hero, without changing the ex-
preston of his face. Il reckon I'll have

Soon after Fitz-Grcene Halleck had
published his stirring Marco Bozzaris,"
he repeated the poem to /; lady. AN init
mate friend of his. She expressed great
admiration of the beautiful lines, but
when he was in full enjoyment of what
he considered her, perfect appreciation
she surprised him by the innocent query:
'.Who was Marco Bozzaris?
=. . ss1aLelll said desnondep +
f Fl Tadfees #oi IF heroes
about the events of the day?
The remembrance of another incident
connected with the poem never failed to
elicit groan from its author.
At certain dinner party at which nc
was present, it was expected that each
man should sing a song or make speech.
Among the guests was Il Dutch Jew,
whose English was execrable, and he
had been previously persuaded by u joker
to commit the whole of Marco Bozzaris
to memory that he might recite it for the
qualification of the poet and the poets
friends
The day came and the Dutchman was
called upon to speak.
"Shentlemans," said he rising, 81 can
neither make de speech nor sing dc song,
but will deliver Won grand poem
This he proceeded relsatlessly to do,
and Halleck, when he heard his har1no-
NOUS measures delivered in a mixture
of English and Dutch, was divided be-
tween the temptation to laugh and cry.

Finding Els rride.

In one part of the Canton of Ticino
very quaint marriage ceremony prevails.
The bridegroom dresses in his Sunday
best" aud accompanied by as many
friends and relatives as he can muster
for the fete goes to claim'his bride.
Finding the door locked he demands
admittance; the inmates ask him his
business, and in reply he solicits the
hand of his chosen maiden.
If his answer be deemed satisfactory
he is successfully introduced to num-
Der of matrons and maids, some perhaps
deformed and others old and ugly. Then
he is presented to some large dolls. all
of which lie rejects with scorn, amid
general merriment. The bewildered
bridegroom, whose impetuosity and
temper are now sorely tried, is then in
formed that his lady love is absent and
invited in to see for himself.
He rushes into the house and searches
from room to room until he finds her in
her bridal dress, ready to go to church.
Then are his troubles over and his state
as a benedict assured. Republic.
