Logan Was There.

General Logan was member OF
congress at the breaking out of the
war. When he saw there was really
going to be fight, he seized mus
ket, slipped out of Washington, and
walked all the way to Bull Run,
where he arrived just in time to have
a hand in the fray. The route was
complete, and the next morning, a
good deal out of breath, he was back
at the capital, telling SEINE of his fell
low-congressmen what he had seen.
"Who gave you this account of the
fight?" asked member from North
ern New York, as he joined the group.
"Why, was there myself" said Lo-
gan. The New Yorker was mys6fied;
apparently he had not heard the news.
"You were there?" he exclaimed;
"are the cars running?" 'No," said
Logan, "tho cars amt running, but

ginia is, as near as l could make out

take them various luxuries and deli,

sympathies would favor the Southern
soldiers, and very seldom bestowed
auy favors upon the Yankees.
In one of the wards was a German
soldier, who was approached by one
of these strong 'secesh" ladies, and
asked if he was Union man.

roamed over the basket of luxuries

Thereupon the lady uncovered the
basket and laid out an excellent re-
past of bottled wines, mince pies,
pound cake and other delicacies,
which were greedily devoured by the
Southerners in the presence of the
Union men, who naturally felt justly
indignant.

The lady set the basket down on
the table, and our German friend
thought the truth had availed in this

the basket, the lady drew out and

There is new word to be ADDED

The scarpologist is not exactly a
cheiromancist. He deals with your
other extremity and tells of your
character, not by the hand. but your
foot, or rather your boot. Give him
a boot or shoe you have worn for
three months or more, and you are
opening up to him all your secret
springs OF action, your motives, your
conduct. your life. 1t is doctor in
Bale who has founded the new phil
osophy and announces himself as the
original scarpologist. He has. OF
course. to give few indications to
support his claim to his proud posi-
tion. A man does not become a pro.
lessor by merely inventing a word.
So here are the indications, says
the Westminster Review. If you
wear heel and sole even. you are an
energetic man, full of action and re-
source; and if that boot belongs to Il
woman, the owner is faithful. affec-
tionate. and possessed of the domes-
tic virtues. If you wear the sole of
your boot on the outside-which
most people do-you are an enthusi-
asst, and very likely to become an ad-
venturer This is not pleasant phil
osophy, and what makes it worse is
that the boot tells the same story
for both sexes. But it is when the
wear is on the inside that the re-
suits are the strangest If you are
a man, you are a feeble, irrcsolute,
vaclllating creature; if you are a
woman. you are attractive, gentle
and modest. Now, this too, is odd
philosophy. For knock-kneed peo-
pie generally wear their boots on the

the Flambeau Chippewas. He was

Who on the veteran breast reclines,

And round his tender finger twines
Those scattered locks, that with the flight

And as scar arrests his view,
He cries. Gran pa, what wounded you?

Since from scene of blood and tears
Where vIlor fell by hostile power,
saw retire the setting sun
Behind the hills OF Lcxin ;to1'
While pale and lifeless on the plain
My brothers lay, for freedom slain.
And ere that fight, the first thlt spoke
In thunder TO our land was Ger
Amid the clouds of fire and smoke,

IT'S since that dread and wild ARRAY,
That trying, dark. eventual dly,
From this calm April eve so far
wear upon my cheek the scar
When thou to manhood shalt be grown,
And am gone in dust to sleep.
May freedoms rights be still thine own,
And thou and thine in quiet reap
The unblfghted product of the toll
In which my blood believed the soil
And while those fruits thou shalt enjoy,
Bethink thee Of this scar, my boy
But should thy country's voice be heard
TO bid her children fly to arms.
Grid on thy grandsire's trusty sword,
And, undismayed by wars alarms,
Remember on the battle field.
