THE COURT JESTER.
4 Practical Joke That Will sommera
 Played on Cardinal Wolsey.

4 Practical Joke That Will sommerz
 Played on Cardinal Wolsey.
 Amelia Wonord tells of "The Court Jesters of England in St Nichoias The following is related of King Henry V1II's jester:
 Sommers, like seogan, liked prac- 6ical joke, and one that he played on Cardinal Wolsey is thus quaintly told by Armin:
 ss0f q time appointed the king dined at Windsor, in the chapel yard at Car dinall Wolsey's at the same time when he was building that admirable work of his tombe, at whose gate stood a number of poore people, to be served with aims when dinner was done with in, and as Will passed by they saluted him, taking him for a worthy person. age, which pleased him. In he comes, and finding the king at dinner and the cardinal by attending, to disgrace him that he never loved, Harry, saves hee, lend me g10. What to doe? safes the king To pay three or foure of the car dinall's creditors, quoth hee, to whom my word is past, and they are now come for the money. That thou shalt, Will, quoth bee. Creditors of mine? safes the cardinal. He give your grace my head if any man can justly aske me penny. No, safes Will Lend me e10. If I pay 1t not where thou owest it, He give thee e20 for it. Doe so, safes the king That I will, my liege, safes thee cardinal, though owe none. With that he lends Will G10 Will goes to the gate, dis tributes it to the poore and brought the empty bag. There is thy bag againe, safes hee. Thy creditors are satisfied, and my word out of danger. Who re- ceived, safes the king, the brewer or the baker? Neyther, Harry, safes Will Sommers But cardinal, answer me in one thing, to whom dost thou owe thy soule? To God, quoth bee. To whom 6hy wealth? To the poore, safes bee. Take thy forfeit, Harry, safes the foole. Open confession, open pennance. His head is thine, for to the poore at the gate paid his debt, which bee yields is due, or if thy stony heart will not yield it so, save thy head by denying thy word and lend 1t nee. Thou know est am poore and have neyther wealth nor wit, and what thou lendest to the poore God will pay thee tenfold x The king taught at the jest, and so did fhe cardinal for shew, but it grieved him to jest away e10 so. .

DAREDEVIL HEROlSM.
Brave Rescue of General Payne by Some
 Negro Volunteers.

'.The most daredevil piece of hero- ism ever saw was by some negroes be fore Fort Pillow, when I was a prison. CT inside the fort and General Payne was lying in front of it with his leg shot of, :" was the way Charles Cotton of Company 0 of the One Hundred and Sixty-frst New York infantry began a story of valiant rescue that he told to some negro veterans.
 General Payne's leg had been shot off in the first charge" he continued. ''and he was lying hidden behind some rocks in front of the fort, when his troops were forming plans to rescue him The scathing fire from the fort swept that spot, and no officer dared to command any of his men to go to cer- tain death ill what looked like vain attempt to rescue their chief.
 While the men were deliberating a negro stepped up and said, We might as we'll run our chances nowas any oth- CT time, and for one will make the attempt He was handsome fellow, and the spirit he displayed was at once equaled by that of II other negroes, who stepped out and volunteered their services. A stretcher was brought, and four of them started, but had gone only few yards when every one was shot dead. A moment after four others of the volunteers rushed out, and, picking up the stretcher, carried it few wards farther, when they too were killed. The four who were left went ahead as if nothing had happened. and two of them came back alive with the general, while the other two were left dead at the pile of rocks where General Payne had been lying General Payne is still living, and, am told, the two noble fellows who rescued him have wanted for nothing ever since.
