A. GaUant Girl Who Fought With
St ah el aad Custer.
One of the personages about Wash
ington during the war was Annie
Jones, who originally professed to
have ran away from a boarding
school in Boston to "follow the
drum," and who attached herself to
the headquarters of Gen. Stahel, the
commander of a German brigade. A
flippant talker, site ingratiated herself
into the favor of the general, and re
ceived an honorary appointment as a
member of his staff, and as "Major
Jones" became an institution in the
army. She ate with the general,
drank with the general, rode with
the general on all of his hazardous
forays, chatted with the general,
nursed the general when he was sick,
fought the general's battles when she
heard him aspersed by jealous un
derstrappers, and when night drew
the starry flag over the heavens, she
slept with her beloved colored maid
iu the next little tent, which the
general had assiened her. She thus
lived and flourished. Her orders
were wont to be obeyed, because she
was recognized as a staff officer. She
always had the countersign, and
could pas3 the picket at pleasure.
She was said to be a girl of great'dash
and daring, and would frequently
venture out beyond the outposts and
for days watch the movements of the
enemy, and bring in whole budgets
of information from the rebel camps,
as proofs of her stewardship and
shrewdness. Every one knew Maj.
Jones ; officers would doff their hats,
and privates would stand at full
"present" as she rode b' in military
feminine dignity. The visiting
officers from other commands were
introduced to Annie, and admired
her, and she reigned supreme as the
"she-major of cavalry."
When Gen. Hooker marched into
Maryland and Stahel was relieved,
Miss Maj. Annie joined her fortunes
with the young and gallant Custer,
with whom she remained, retaining
her rank and title, until a general
order from headquarters rendered it
necessary for him to dispense with
her usefulness, and the major was
compelled to search for a field of use
fulness elsewhere. For a few days
she wandered around the camp, hav
ing no particular abiding place or
continuing city, until Col. Sharpe,
then acting provoat marshal general,
thought the interests of the service
required that she should be removed
to Washington. Accordingly a pass
was 'granted her to travel as far as
the military railroad would carry her,
and a sergeant of the 93d New York
was detailed to accompany her, to
guard agaiust any accident on the
way. Arriving at Washington, she
stopped at the Kirkwood House,
where she sometimes appeared in
staff uniform, and then in fashiona
ble female attire. It was believed
that she was a Confederate spy in the
Union secret service.
Another devoted friend of the Con
federates, who resided just outside of
the Union lines in Virginia, managed
to fascinate Gen. Stoughton, a young
West Pointer, and one evening, while
he was serenading her, he, with his
hand or orderlies, were surprised,
and sent as prisoners of war to Rich
mond. "I don't mind losing the
brigadier, for they are easily made,"
said Mr. Lincoln m talking about the
capture, "but there were twenty
horses taken which cost $125 each.
Ex.
A New York Character.
Some very amusing characters are
conspicuous" in the streets of New
York. I met one of these the other
day. lie was a middle-aged man,
with a shrewd face and dark eyes.
He was dressed in coarse, loose stuff,
much the worse for wear, and he car
ried several garments over his left
arm. He was what we call an "old
clo'mau" a gatherer of cast off coats
and trousers, shoes and boots and
hats. As I was passing him he asked
me if I had any old clothes to sell,
and assured me that he paid the high
est market prices. Then this little
dialogue, inspired by my own curi
osity, ensued:
"What do you do with the things
you pick up?" I inquired.
"What do I do with them?" he
said, with a laugh, "I get rid of them
at a profit."
"How?"
"How? Easy enough. I sell them
to the westerners, and this is the
way I do it: As soon as I get a big
stock I make up a lot of bundles, as a
pair of boots, a hat, a coat or some
thing else in each. I stuff the uundle3
into cheap bags and then start for
some western town. I hire a. store
there and sell off the bags at auction.
When that's done I take the first
train out of that place. If I stayed
till morning I'd bo lynched. There's
a hundred places I don't dare to
show my nose in. Once only once
I was caught, badly too. I lost the
train and had to stay all night in a
Mississippi village. The next day I
was kept mighty busy, I tell you,
buying back my bags and old clothes.
I never saw such mad people. The
trade is dangerous you see, but it
pays." The philosopher whistled
briskly and went his way. Geo.

The City Engineer of Quebec thinks
he has found a way of getting a full
day's work for a full day's pay, out
of the corp'oration laborers of that
city. He has published an advertise
ment in the city papers, under the
corporation seal, which reads :
PUBLIC XOTICE.
Parties are hereby particularly re
quested, where excavations are made
in streets to thaw water-pipes, to re
port to the Water Works Department
any undue delay by the men doing
the work, either from their beginning
after hours (7 a. m.), or leaving work
before hours (0 p. in.) or due to their
not properly exercising themselves
while at work. Please see that the
pick is lifted to a proper height, and
that under whatever pretense an of
the gang are not smoking or indulg
ing their time while others are work
ing. The public will understand that it
is impossible and too expensive for
the city to put a foreman to each ex
cavation, and that the only way to
preent the city from being robbed
D3' the heartless laborer who takes a
month to do a thing that can be done
in less than a week, is to report him,
that he may be immediately dis
charged, and "replaced by another
willing to do a good day's work for
tho pay he gets.

The habit of administering quinine in pow

A gentleman went into a crowded

to the clerk. "We have very few
stripes, sir," the clerk replied; "they
are not much worn now." "Are you

he leaned over the counter and
shouted "Hats!" "See!" he asked.

LIVER REGULATOR
For all Diseases of the
Lirer, Kidneys, Stomich and Splesn.
This purely vegetable pre
paration, now so celebrated as a
Family .Medicine, originated in
the South in 1SSS. It acts
Sently on the Bovrels and
Jdneys and corrects the
action of the Liver, and is, there
fore, the best preparatory
medicine, whatever th: sick
ness may prove to be. In all
common diseases it will, un
assisted by any other medi
cine, effect a speedy euro.
The Regulator is safe to administer in any
condition of the system, and under no circum
stances can It do harm. It trill invigorate
like a class of wine, but is no intoxicating bever
age to lead to intemperance: will promote di
gestion, dlsbipato headache, and gener
ally tono up the system. The dose is small,
not unpleasant, and iu virtues undoubted.
No loss of time, no Inter
ruption or stoppage of
business while taking the
Regulator.
Children complaining of
Colic, Headache, or Mck
Stoniucli, a teaspoonful or
more will give relief.
If taken occasionally by pa
tients exposed to MALARIA,
w ill expel the poison and protect
them from attack.

I have been practicing medicine for twenty years,
and have never been able to put up a vegetable
compound that would, like Simmons Liver Regu

action, ind at the same time aid (instead of weak
