An nilicer who " Inn Isrn there,'' gives the following r.kelch of men's feelings when they ure engaged in bailie. It appears to tell tho story in u iMrngrnpti : ' The commencement of n liatili; is n nervous time with most men. You feel uneasy mid wish it was over, but in the Im'lels whi-ttlu past, nu I the men begin to drop, you warm up a little. As the urtil lery opens ami the volleys of iuu-.kelry M low p.teli other rnpid'y, yon begin lo enter into the cvciipmcnt of the thing, mill your own work lakes your mini i IV from the (lunger, the Tiding of tiiic.isine.-s gives place lo one of Ftcinliuefu. As the shot nnd shell tear throng your ranks, you giud unity get iiind. mid feel ready fur anything, tie matter what. The uVuii mul" dying around you make no impres-ion on your feelings at that time. You look upon it as an inevitable thing that they sliou'd l be killed, unil think it limy bu your turn next ; if so. it is nil right. Hut a Inyniiel charge is the thing lo carry a man above the thought of danger. Yon have no more thought oT it llmu the boy has, who skint'' over the pond niter the flr-t reeze nuil the thin ice bends under him. The tiinu In appreciate what u battle is, is after il is all over, mid you go out to bring in your wounded unil bury your dead. Then you you meet every conceivable horror, unil see nil ihu Fullering that human nature is capa ble of enduring. I Imve often been sur prised ut thu fortitude displayed by our wounded men. llieir paiiencu ntul quite heroism is almost past belief." .. Tin: Foiick or JlAinr. A enuneelnr renowned for the ait of pleading, had a t rick of rubbing his spectacle ease while address ins ii jury. A foolMi attorney, who had couliilei) n brief to him, thought his action indecorous, and likely lo impair the (fleet of Ihu suit admitted. Accordingly, he watched for mi opportunity, mid stole away the spectacle ease. For thu llrst time iit his life the counselor's tniiguu fullered his mind missed tliu bodily truck with which it had long associated its operations, lie be came confuu'd, cntbarnsM'il lie stammered, blundered, boggled lost till the thrcmls of his brief, nnd was about to sit down, pelf defeated, when the conseieuce-strieken at torney restored the spectacle eae. Straight way, 'with the first touch nf the familiar talisman, the mind recovered its Fclf-pos-session, the tongue its llucney ; nnd a again, nnd ngaiu. the lawyer fondly rubbed lh.pectnelu case, arguments flew forth like the birds from n conjuror's box. And tho jury lo whom n few minute.'! before tho case seemed hopele.s, were stormed in to liumiiiuoui conviction of its justice. Such i thu forco of habit. Such is the sympathy between mental nnd bodily iib soeialions. Every magician needs hi wand, nnd perhaps every man of genius lias his s-peetacle cnBi A HrNT. In prisenco nf his lately ac quired better half, Seriggs the other day remarked to hia friend Uiggs, that if the saying of a wise until wns true that "The grand CF-entiuU to happiness in this life is. something to love and something to hnru for," he ought to bo happy, since, in secur ing the idol of his heart, he had something to love, nnd that event had left them both something to hope for! Mrs. Seriggs' blushed nnd pulled Seriggs' car. while Riiggti coughed, nnd that moment saw something remarkable out of the window.
