PERsoNAL.-Among those who at
tracted special attention in last Thurs
days parade was that gallant soldier,
Mr.. Alexander Hunter, of the Seven
teenth Virginia. He marched at the
head of the Washington veterans, and
was dressed in the uniform he wore
during the war and at the surrender,
the same hat, etc. He had an old
haversack from which appeared several
ears of corn, which he partook OF at
times when the command halted. He
carried canteen, old, tattered blanket
across the shoulders, wooden buttons
or his coat; and. in short, looked the
real, war-worn Confederate to perfee.
ton. He entered the army when q
mere youth, and rendered distinguish
ed service to the Confederacy. He was
captured several times, and effected his
escape in remarkable ways-once
through chimney.-Rich Times.

AN IRATE CHINAMAN.-The most
tantalizing cases which come up in po-
lice courts in these modern days are
those against Chinese laundryman from
the fact that they are stubborn
and unreasonable, very loquacious and
possessed of limited stock of English.
Occasionally some reputable citizen
complains that he has left garments
with these people to be laundered
which are never seen again by the GUS
toner, and other and more dilapidated
articles given in return. The auth
critics, considering the people with
whom they have to deal, never assess
fines or costs, but simply require them
TO produce the missing articles or pay
for them. This morning a gentleman
complained at the saation house that
he had taken new shirt to one oftbese
Celestials and when he called for it had
been given one which was torn and
patched and which did not belong to
