A private letter from un rfTieer In Grant'
ormy relates an incident among the rebel
lirlsorjerg : " A big lot of gruybacki were
liruught in and bulled right In front of
where. I cloy. I went to the door and
lieurd the different fquad hallooing for
1helr regiments: 'Where's the Thirty,
fourth Alabama ?' ' Is the Tenth Georgia
here?' 'Istlieruuny South Carolina regi
ment in that crowd ?' The last question
was politely nwwered by a big grayback :
-'D n your South Curollna regiments; If
'it badn't been for you we wouldn't be here."
Another of his stories is of an old lady,
tit whote house Brnpg had his headqoar
lers. She said : " beforo you all en me up
'here, I usked General Urogg ' What are
you going to do with me, General V He
tuyfi to me, Lord I Madame, the Yankees
will never dare to come here.' Aod," she
nJded with a blubber, " it was not fifteen
minutes till you were all nround 1"
This reminds us of a story told by Col.
Kimman, of Uenerul Uutler's staff, of one
of hk negro guides, who said, to the great
amuKcinent of the trooju : " Master said I
you was whipped etery time; but youj
coined neater aud nearer, and here you be."i

A few weeks since on ndvertlwment, by

This apolagy reminds us of the discourse
of a parson, us oppropos. The parson
uroie gruvely in hi pulpit and tlowly said:
" Ilrethren ; there was taken from the porch
of this church, lust Sunday, probably by
mistuke, n large, new, green sill; umbrella,
of exceeding groat beauty, nnd lo its stead
was left an old, faded, small, cotton um

A young member of the bar thought he
would adopt a motto for himself, and af
ter much rcllectiou, wrote in large letters
Mid posted up on the wall the followiug;
"Suuwie ouioue," which may le translated:
"Let every one have his own." A country
client coming lu expressed himself much
gratified with the maxum, but added.
" you don't spell it right."
"Indeed, then, how ought it to be
spelled?"
The visitor replied, "Sae'em quick."
A mansion, completely furnished, was

sitting room, reception room, tic.
A telegram from the l.'ui-t states that the
rebel newtpapers, of Dixie, ore very bitter

ir would hovo done the same thing, only
fur the lack ol wa.os.SUUman.

One of the finest specimens of laconic
speech is that of Hochej icquelln: "If I mi-
vanee, follow me; If I fall, avenge mc; if I
flinch, kill me."
