Bijou.

I had little donkey once
With hair so gray and glossy;
One ear stood up, the other down,
Which made her look quite saucy.
Whichever way wished to go,
The other way went Bijou,
Which makes fellow awful mad,
If anybody sees you.
One day we went along the beach,
A-driving DER the pebbles,
And Bijou behaved loud and long
In bassos and in trebles.
But when I wanted to go home
The donkey would not bulge, sir;
1t seemed as If she really had
Against me quite grudge, sir.
When 1 said, Cor she only baked
And backed right in the water
The morals this: Don't reason with
A braying donkey's daughter.

TROUBLES OF A DIPLOMATIST.
Hsse Minister who ventured
Into Wall Street.

Ten years back the little kingdom
of Portugal was represented by
Souza Rosa, who was the Apollo of
the diplomatic corps, the most popu-
lar man in society of that day,
whose dinners and little suppers,
whose languishing eyes and fascinat-
ing ways are still remembered, says
the New York Sun.
But the handsome Souza had need
of money. His salary and allow
ances fell far short of supporting the
establishment he maintained here
and he attempted to increase his re-
sources by gambling in Wall street,
receiving tips from the beautiful
wife of a noted senator.
All went well at first, money came
flowing into the Golfers of the di-
plomatist, there were many more
dinners given in his bachelor apart
ments, many more little suppers.
But one day poor Souza got caught,
was sold out and found himself thou
sands of dollars in debt.
There was only one thing to be
done-to sell all he had and ask for
his recall, and this he did as speed
lily as circumstances would allow.
The king of Portugal and the queen,
who is said to be very fond of her
handsome compatriot, saw to il that
Souza Rosa did not suffer by his
indiscretion and caused him to be
transferred to Paris where there are
no beautiful wives of senators to
give him tips and no wicked Ameri-
can stock brokers, and where he has
lived in happiness and contentment
sanee HIS unfortunate American ex.

"A Friend with the countersign. "

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: DR..
Whistler's tribute to the author of "Who
Gees ThereY' and "a Friend with the
Countersign," induces me to give further
corroboration of the wonderful accuracy
of the author, even to the minutest incl
dents. When the Sixth Corps returned to
the Petersburg lines in December, 1864,
it occupied a position across the Weldon
Railway and across the Squirrel Level
road We picketed in our front and to
the right of the immense earthwOrk known
as Fort Fisher. From our picket line a
line of breastworks ran to the rebel lines,
not in a straight line, but bearing to our
right. 1t had been rebel line before the
lines were changed by our extension to
the west. The Johnnies had habit Of
coming up under cover Of this old breast
work and of deploying when within hum
dred yards or so, then make rush and
gobble pickets, blankets. and haversacks.
exactly as Berwick describes. On the
night he mentions the entire Second Divi-
sion was ordered into the breastworks.
The first time l went on picket after our
return to the Petersburg lines / was post
ed a hundred yards in advance of the 9th
er videts and on top Of the abandoned
breastworks. Occasionally lump of dirt
loosened by a thaw would fall into the
ditch, in which was ice, and every time
it occurred I was sure a thousand rebs
were just upon us; but none came while l
was on picket. l have often wondered
how they knew 1 was there. Berwick was
right, always right, when speaking of
places or eyents.-CHAs. PORTER, Grin

CRUEL METHODS
Of Treating Piles and Rectal Diseases

The old methods of treating piles by the
knife, by liSature or dilatation, besides
causing intense pain and frequently col
lapse and death, are now known to be
worse than useless as far as actually cur
ing the trouble is concerned.
Derangement of the liver and other in
ternal organs, as well as constipation,
often causes piles, and it is a mistake to
treat it as a purely local disease; this is
the reason why salves and ointments have
so little effect and the widespread success
of the Pyramid Pile Cure has demonstrat-
ed it.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is not salve
nor ointment, but is in suppository form,
which is applied at night, absorbed into
the sensitive rectal membrane and acts
both as local and constitutional treat
ment, and in cases of many years stand
ing has made thousands of permanent
cures.
Many pile sufferers who have undergone
surgical operations without relief or cure
have been surprised by results from few
weeks treatment with the Pyramid sup
pository.
The relief from pain IS so immediate
that patients sometimes imagine that the
Pyramid contains Opiates or cocaine, but
such is not the case, it is guaranteed abb
solutely free from any injurious drug.
The cure is the result of the healing oils
and astringent properties of the remedy,
which cause the little tumors and con-
gested blood vessels to contract and nat
ural circulation is established.
All druggists sell the Pyramid Pile
Cure at 80 cents for full-sized package.

and as a result he was struck and killed
by one of the shells"
At that time and place the writer was
in command of his company, which was
directly in the rear of the gun that fired
the shots. Our regiment was supporting
that battery. There was no general Off
Ger near other than Gen. Sherman and
some of his staff. Gen. Sherman often
came along the line on foot to observe for
himself. With some of his staff he was
on that kind of tour of observation then.
The writer was within 20 feet of the gun
when the shots were fired, and within 1O
feet or less when the conversation between
Gen. Sherman and the Captain command
ing the battery occurred and heard every
word Of it. Gen. Sherman asked the Cap
tain who was his best gunner. The Cap
tain spoke of the Sergeant by name, and
indicated by pointing to his gun.
Gen. Sherman handed the Sergeant his
field glass and directed him to observe the
group of men up yOnder on the high
Ger and his staff observing our line, and
asked him if he could not put shell over
there. The Sergeant answered that he
could, but his piece contained a short
range shell for the skirmish line, but he
would empty it and do so. This he did.
The first far overshot toward the high
ground did the work and there was but
one more shot fired at that time.
Gen. Sherman and others with glasses
were cognizant of the fact at the time
that some one was hurt There were but
three shots fired in all, the first down on
the skirmish line, the other two way over
toward the high ground. They were all
fired by one gun; there was no volley fired.
The gun that fired the shots was one Of
our Indiana battery of Rodmen guns, the
Captain of which was killed later on in
the same campaign.
Our men on that part Of the line learn
ed of the death of Gen. Polk that evening
at dusk from some of the 50th Ga, G. S.
A., who were On the skirmish line on front
of us, some Of whom came over and gave
themselves up as prisoners and brought
