- Yonr Pearls.
Trutt not the secret ot thy soul with those
Who hold their treasure with a recklcas
hind; .
Nor to each ready car thy thought dtcoe.
Nor to each suiillni; face thy heart expand.
Pearl from the ocean' depth too prlceful
are
To he strewn heedless at the common feet.
Show not to curious eye the hidden car,
Xor to the wind thy sacred word repeat:
Else under trampling hoofs thy gold shall
lie
The holy sold of thy Interior self.
Crushed the rare pearls hy every passer-by,
Or piven from hmd to hand as ulgar pelf.
It Is the lesion taught each separate heart
To shield Its gems from universal gaze;
To thine In quiet glory and apart.
Revealed alone on "coronation d.ys.
Uire freely to the world Sis just demand
Of sympathy, of kindliness, of trust ;
But Veep reserved for one beloved baiid
The pearl too pure to be trod down la the
dust.
All lire may know the centlene and era re;
All a carts thy loving power may evidence:
But on few hands oft one alone dare place
The costly rin of priceless confidence.
Galaiy.

THE BATTLE AT SII&S10X UIDOE.
EH Perkins writes to the New York
Suk from that famoos stctioa in liliaois
known ai Eirypt, After a fanciful intro
duction he relates the following incident
and story of the battle at JIUiloa IUdge,
during the late rebellion :
When the Egyptians ar sober they are
harmless, bat two drinks of whisky an da
plug of tobarcj oa an empty atomach
will make them worse than a Bisbi-Bi-zouk.
Yesterday I a w one charged with
a pint of alcohol and two plug of tobacco,
a don; that only the rich Egyptians ctn
indulge in. lie was a t-rrnr to behold.
Phosphoric acid gas poured off aim. He
was loaded down with more pivcbologv
than Geor?e Francis Train. He wes the
Crushed Tragedian charged with giaat
powder.
'I'm a steamboat from HickYy bayon,
he said, "a mrlar side-wheeler. Im a
rattlesnake with rattles all the way up.
, . . i . - i .
l m we woret man on ue oajeu, an wc
haVt got a bayou boy that can't whip a
gunboat. 1 m a "
0, Bill, be still 1 D nt fibt any more
to-day. Tain't r.a Ys the wniky.
Come along!" And a nice-loukiag man
took square hold of Bill and beta bim
a in a vise.
"Lem me go! Lcm me chaw somebody.
Lea, - !
Bat in a moment thei&Ice-looking man
lifted Bill into uis-wagoa asd drove off. '
"Who is that brave' farmer who takes
such an interest ia BitiP I asked Col.
Barber, the Chairman of the lecture As
sociation. 'Oh, taat's Cp 3Iason. Ue used to be
a hard 'uo, but now he's jined the church,
he's the father of every bad man in this
section. Tney all just l.ve Cap 3Iason.
WTiat does Mason doP I aakei.
He's a farmer, sir a big farmer over
oa the Muddy."
But what does he come over with the
Bayou boys fort Why does be care
whether tbey get drunk and fight or
whether they keep soberP
"Well, the C4p used to be a drinker
aad a fighter himself. He was sentenced
to be shot at once in the army for fighting.
He struck an offlcer cot oa a drunken
frolic, and casae nearly killing the 3Ijor
oi tae regiment jost as ttusky Bill
wants to kill somebodv now."
"How did the Captain escape!" 1
asked.
"Well," said the Colonel, "Mason, with
adozea fellows from Little 31oddy, en
listed in my regiment. Ha was a splen
did soldier always ready for battle oob
of the best men -in the tegimcut, but be
would have bis sprees. One dar, about
three wee kr before the battle of 3Iision
KidgeJMason brouht a canteen of wlmkr
iato camp, and, always cencrons, went to
giving it to the boys. This was against
the orders; ao I ordered my Mj t to ar
rest him and put him into the suard
house. Mason found out that the 31ajor
was alter him with a squad of men, and,
lull or denltrr, he began dodging around
the tents to keep from beinc arrested.
Bat pretty quick, in tryins to keep away
from the men, be ran square against the
Major.
'Here, you r-scalT said the 3Ijor,
eeiziBghtm by the coat collar, without
giving him a chance to explain. "Now,
you walk to the gnard bouse! 111 fix
you, you scoundrel!
" 'Bat in the excitement of the moment
Masna drew up bis fist and knocked the
Major flat, ana then he went and gave
nitaseu ap.'
"What was done about it?" I asked.
"Well, Mason was tried before a conrt-
martial for striking a superior officer,
sentenced to be shot, and the sentence
was seat to Gen. Jeff. C. Davis to be ap
proved. Aad then poor Mason was im
prisoned on bread and water, with a ball
aad chain to each foot."
"Did Gen. Davis approve the sentence ?"
"Yes, he approved it."
"But bow did Mason escape bcln
shot!"
Well.the next day before the approved
seateace arrived came the battle ot Mis
sion nidge, and our itegimcnt was or
dered forward. Mason, of course, was
ia the rear under guard, with a ball
chaiaed to his ankles. We heard the
rebel cannon in front all the forenoon
"We knew there was a big battle on, and
we seeded all our men. So I rode over
to the truard bouse and bdd ilasoc tbt
we would have to leave him behind with
his ball aad chain till the battle was over.
' 'Let me go with the boys, Colonel!"
pleaded Mason. "I don t want to see the
boys ia a fight without me.'
" 'But you might escape, Mason. You
know there is a sentence hanging over
job.' .
"'By heaveas.Colonel! you ain't going
