A Friendly Fleet.

Not all naval demonstrations, even in
time of struggle, belong to battle. A
pleasant picture of some of the amenities
of the Civil War is given by Alexander
Hunter in 'Johnny Reb and Billy Yank. "
The incident took place on the banks OF
the Rappahannock, on the opposite sides
OF which the pickets OF the Northern and
the Southern armies were stationed. In
the early morning the Confederate SOL
diers heard cry:
"Johnny Reb say, Johnny Reb
Don't shoot -
"All right p replied Johnny.
"What command are you ?"
"BIack Horse Cavalry. Who are you? l"
Second Michigan Cavalry"
"Come out We won't fire."
"On honor, Johnny Reb ?"
"On honor, Billy Yank"
A squad of bluecoats advanced on the
bank of the river. The Southerners did
the same. The Yankees called out:
"Got any tobacco ?"
"Plenty."
"Got any sugar or coffee ?"
mot taste or smell"
"Lets trade"
"All right; we'll have to send TO town
for the tobacco, but it won't take long"
81 say, Johnny, want some newSpa-
pers ?"
eyes -
"Then look out. We're going to send
you some"
GLOW ?"
"Wait and see."
The SouthernerS watched in curiosity
to see how even Yankee ingenuity could
get batch Of papers across two hundred
yards OF water.
"They'Il shoot arrows over" guessed
one.
"Arrows There never was a bow
bent that could cast an arrow over that
river"
"Maybe they'll wrap them round a
cannonball and Shoot"
At last a cry arose: "Here they come
The Yankees are the greatest!'
On the opposite edge Of the river ap-
peared several miniature boats and ships,
such as schoolboyS delight in, with sails
set. The gentle breeze waited across the
water the little craft, each laden with two
papers. Slowly but surely they made
their way, as if Puck sat at their tillerS,
and in few moments the Confederate
soldiers drew them out of the river and
sent back a cheer for the brave little fleet.

PRAYER and Action.

The best kind of suppIication is that
which involves readiness for action.
This principle was recognized not only
by "Stonewall'' Jackson, but by his ne

War Jim was talking to some army OFF,

One evening a very tall man went to
the theater and took prominent seat in
the third or fourth row from the stage.
Before the curtain rose cry OF Down
in front p became general from behind.
The tall man, finding the eyes Of the en-
tire audience turned toward him, fell
obliged to do something, and so he pro-
ceeded to raise himself 10 standing po-
sition in such a manner, however, as to
convey an impression that there was no
end to him. He was, in fact, nearly sew
en- feet high, and when at last he had ris-

around at the astonished audience and
very deliberately remarked:
Gentlemen, to satisfy you that was

A burst of laughter and applause fol-
lowed, amidst which the manager, with
beaming face, came forward and con-

The Anti Carriage Law a Good One

The election held here last Tuesday, under the lev law %fcrbidding
the Sc of carriages at elections, was remarkable for being n of the
most orderly and quiet elections ever held in the town. There was
no trouble about getting out the vote and every one that wanted tc
vote, got to the polls without any trouble. The law, he it remember.
ed was framed and introduced in the last Legislature by Senator Price
of this place and it WAS loudly condemned by some of the county pa
pers as being a bad measure. But now, that it has been tried, and
worked satisfactorily, it is conceded by almost every onet to be an ex-
ceptionaly good law. The uses of carriages o n election day had
not only become a nuisance but a serious drain on the pocket books
of candidates and was really one of the large items in the bill of cleo.
ton expenses. The Sun believes the measure was of the wisest
that could have been framed to do away with the carriage nuisance

Nothing has ever been the matter with this country except that we
did not all pull together. Our time has come. Now let every man
get into the harness aud stay there until this valley has become so
widely known that when THE Land of Opportunity" is mentioned
people will know a once that it refers to this valley, Our time has
come. A long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether will land us
high and dry on the road to prosperity. Our time has come!
One of the most important things at a FIRE is for everybody to keep
cool and not get excited. AT the fire here yesterday several men lost
their heads and shouted Where's this" and "Where's that" all to NO
real purpose and yet very confusing and disconcerting to those who
were really trying to do something. If there is ever a time when q
man has need to keep cool and work, rather than shout around, it is
at a fire.
Now that c. S. Taylor has consented to organize a fire brigade we
can hope to se proper preparation made to fight any fire that NAV
break out. The main thing to do is to get to a fire before it gets up.
