A DIFFERENCE IN THE SEXES.
Sentiment Not Highly Developed in

Sentiment Not Highly Developed in
Men-Prosaic and Unromantic.
Women never can get used to the
lack of romantic sentiment displayed py
the average man.
1t takes a woman to hoard up every
scrap of the writing of beloved mana,
and lock Ii away In a desk with blue
ribbon around it.
The most cilrsory note he has scrib-
bled in pencil is safely treasured up,
not because it breathed unusual or fer
vid sentiments, but because indited In
that hand.
Twenty-Five years after, she can still
regard with tender interest the flower
he gave her on such and such day,
which she wore in her bosom until IL
died, and then tucked religiOusly into
a book. A bit of gown she wore when
she first saw him, the book they read
together, the first photo" he gave her
all these things have mighty ana
undying interest for woman, who IS by
nature more sentimental than man.
The best man i'm the world often has
a singular lack of romance of this sort
in his makeup. When the past is over
he forgets it. A rose that has served
| its purpose In his buttonhole, worn on
whatever momentOus occasion, is es-
teemed by him to be more tit for the
waste basket thar. the bureau drawer.
He has been known to crumple her bill
let doux before his lady, eyes and smil-
1 ingIy toss it to the four winds; and he
would be puzzled to understand why
that lightsome disregard or his should
send little chill to her heart.
No, men are not by nature senti
mental animals. They can love with
out numbering themselves with endless
effects belonging to the object of theii
affections. And far be it to say thai
theirs IL not the wiser method of the
two. lit simplifies life and is leas
likely to precipitate future embarrass
lnents.

formed me that he desired to repay me
In some way for what he claimed to-
be my great service to him during his
trial. I assured him that I had done
nothing for him that the case did not
fully warrant, but he insisted that but
for several OF my protests he might
have been condemned without a hear
ing. explained to him that that was
simply the duty Of any Judge Adyo-
cate; but he said that Jews were never
ungrateful and made me point blank
offer, that lie I would resign my COM
mission and start a store in Mobile,
which had then just come into the pos
session of the Union forces, he would
stock it with ten or even twenty thou
sand dollars worth of goods, give me
the entire charge and make me an
equal partner.
AS mused over the old Madeira,
visions arose before me OF prosper
Gus business and also frequent calls to
Baton Rouge to consult with Mr..
Isaacs, when / doubted not would be
a welcome visitor at his and his daugh-
ter's home, and-I all but accepted the
offer.
But ere the evening was spent, the
spirit Of war drove sentiment from
my thoughts. An orderly brought the
news of another fierce guerrilla raid III
| from the Bayou Teche, and making
| hasty adieu, thanking the old gentle
man for his generous offer and bend
| ing over his lovely daughters hand,

The President appeared to consider
all this side testimony as wholly ir-
revelant and useless; apparently his
own mind was fully made up as to the
prisoners guilt, although there APP
peared to me room for very grave
doubt. The placid and almost con-
tented look of the old Hebrew, and his
unconcern when captured with such a
damning paper in his possession, COM
PEELED in me a belief that he was not
entirely guilty. or at least that the
whole truth had not yet been known,
and that there must be some extenu-
ating circumstances.
In my position as Judge Advocate,
I endeavored to bring out these points,
and Worded my questions accordingly.
But Colonel Buchanan was supreme
over any court where he presided, and
no question was ever permitted to be
asked that he did not fully sanction
and often change to suit his OWL
views. He tried to be just, yet he was
extremely arbitrary and opinionated

LUCKY STEERAGE MOTHER.
Child Born Aboard Ship Presented
with Wardrobe and Twenty
Five Dollars.

A few weeks ago the European
steamer Graf Waldersee came limping
into New York Harbor after having en-
countered, according to statements Of
the steamer officials and crew, one of
the worst storms ever encountered on
the Atlantic. But Notwithstanding the
rough voyage, there was little Incl
dent on shipboard which attracted as
much attention as the storm. On the
second day out just before the storm
broke there was born to one Of the
Storage passengers a son, who was ap-
propriately named Herman Waldersee
Gales, and the cabin passengers gave
him wardrobe, besides raising So
for his mother.

treason in it's mildest form was most
otIiolIs to him, and that any ofncer
should stoop to enrich himself pen
nv's worth by trade in Government
nronertv was cause for the sevefest
nuntshment and everlasting disgrace.
Tba ex-Colonel of Volunteers, with ms
hreezy Western style and his disregard
of red tape and formality, injured his
clients cause from the first, and sew
eral times Colonel Buchanan threat
ened to forbid his presence before the
Commission. The testimony at nrst
was very strong against the prisoner.
The captain commanding the Union
SQUAD swore clearly and without cnal-
lenge to all the details. Word had
been brought to him by an unknown
how that a lot of Rebels had been seen
several times near the Ferry. opposite
Baton Rouge. and would be there
again, particularly the evening IN
question. Obtaining permission from
the General commanding, the captain
took part of his company, crossed over,
concealed himself and men near the
Ferry and witnessed the interview
between the Confederate Captain and
this Jew. He was not close enough to
hear the conversation, but he observed
the Jew was not surprised to meet the
Rebels. and shortly after they met he
saw him hand the Captain a paper.
Meanwhile, his men had cautiously
closed in on the enemy, and after a
slight resistance captured the entire
party. 1t was true, the Captain added,
that he knocked the Rebel Captains re-
yolver from his hand just as he was
about to shoot the Jew, but neither of
Them would state whether there was
any Quarrel, or if so, the cause. The
Jew seemed surprised to be treated as
a prisoner, and when the paper was
found upon him, and some of the boys
wanted to hang him without trial, ne
looked bewildered and dazed. He at
tempted, two or three times, to make
some sort of explanation, but seemed
so free and uncOncerned about the
whole matter, and tried to be so con-
fidential, that the Captain, too, at last
got angry, and told him that II ne
didn't hold his tongue no great effort
would be made to restrain the boys
from carrying out their threat. The
Sergeant and two of the men testified
in much the same way. The Sergeant
added that when he said to the Jew,
'sWhy, you gray-headed old sinner,
don't you know that that paper we
found on you will hang you higher
than Haman." the Jew merely
shrugged his shoulders and said some
thing to the Rebel Captain, who had
