Stoky Auol't IjIuuy Prison.--Cap* itu .Joseph U'ingGold, an ex member of the City council of Richmond, tells a good story of (lie tiuic when lie stood sentinel arouud 1/ibby : "So, the old prison is sold, is it ? ' lie said. "Well, gentlemen, I never go by that place without laughing, now. 1 can't Help' thinking of the cute triek played by a lot of Yankees there. The fact is, it was so good that, although 1 had been ordered to shoot in among theui, 1 disobeyed orders.? It was abmt 'tl.'J. and the lobby building was so crowded that it wouldn't hold any more prisoners, so they put a largo lot of lliom in fit.* c.tn.in.l ct.MM. *A' !?.? %>>.. evv'Mivt J \_?l l?IV UUIIUill^ across the street. Soon after those prisoners came the prison officials got : large lot of sweet potatoes (regular yams) from North Carolina, ami stored them on the first llo.?r of the building in which those prisonore were onlincd. I>ig sweet, potatoes! were luxuries in those days, and Turner and those tell >W3 kept a strict watch ov;r the building, 1 can tell you. The third day after they had been stowed away it was noticed that they were disappearing at the rate of about a bushel a day. At first it was thought that the rats took them, but a se in I i!i.oighl showed that the idea was ah or. 1. Sentinels were posted a!i around the building with orders to .shoot any man th y caught stealing those yams, but they didn't see anybody to shoot, and although they were posted there day and night, and no one was allowed to enter the room in which the potato :s were kept, they contin tied to disappear at the rate of a bushel a day. The Confederates saw their yams disappearing in this way, and wore furious. The thing was an unaccountable mystery.? The doors and widows of the room wore scaled and private marks were put 011 the wax, so thai if any one of tlicm was opened it would til..,,-.. ? <. . vx- l?HVM !! J I IH Al III" f I I I t I 1 tllir officers wont into ilio rooiu. The wax was all right, but another bushel of pntitoos had vanished. Well, sir, it was I he mad dc>t crowd you ever saw. They e.uio t<? uie and ordered mo to 'ako my stand in the roam. They locked me in, and a lighted candle was put at each end oi' the room so that I could see. I was ordered to shoot on sight anybody I saw stealing those yams. ?I was terribly lonesome in that mom.? Just as fast as L would light otic caudle and go to the other end of the room to light the o-licr. the rats would cut the first one down. They were tvgul ir Confederate rats, and a candle was a godsend to them. After a lot of worry L got the rats out of the way, and sat down near the door waiting for developments. There I stayed t<!l l:i o'clock j but though I kept my eyes on the potatoes all the time, 1 couldn't see any of them going. Shortly after 1- 1 heard a creaking, grating sound, which seeuied to be all over the room at once. 1 eoeked my gun and held my breath, but still L couldn't sec any sign of life except ti e rats creeping about the iloor. 'I?y George !' I thought, 'this darned place is haunted, if thcr is any such a thing as a place being haunted.' The sound stopped, II 11 f -ilwillt litn nits*** I? > ?*?% M?? u Wt?v VV.II UllilUlWO UtiCI It Ul*^?rj I looked at the pile of potatoes, and presently saw something shoot from the ceiling ati(l fall on them. 1 saw it was a brick, and could distinguish a rone tied to it. 1 crept II Utile lltlll VI IV V V (I UV'VM ? /?/?% 11V lliv. tiling, but before I could examine it, it was drawn slowly up, and there was about a peck of yams sticking to it. It went, up through a hole which had been out in the floor above, and presently came down again with a thump light among the potatoes. It was tlie most artful arrangement you ever saw. The brick had about (ilty holes drilled in it. and through each hole a sharpened ten-penny nail ha J been run, so that when t he brick fell among the yams, these nails stuck into every one they fell on. I couldn't help laughing at the smart dodge those Yankees bud taken to get at tlie yams. I gen ly put my hand forward, and caught hold of the rope. Pretty s -on they began to draw on it. and when it. did not move. I heard one follow say : 'Steady, hoys ; the brick's hung in something. J'ull her steadily, with out jerking.' Thoy ilid pull steadily, and fairly lifted me from the floor. 'No jerk, easy, boys, easy,' the director said, and they tugged away. I got pretty red in the face, holding to the rope. I was afraid to lot go, because I thought sonic of those spiked nails might strike uic in passing. 1 thought of my pocket-knife, and hauled it out just as they were putting all their weight on the other end of the r >pe. I cut it in two,and the end shot back through the holt in the ceiling, and I could hear a rolling and tumbling on the floor above, showing that the sudden giving away of the rope had a disastrous effect. I heard another vjico say : 'There, now, I told you so. You've broken the rope. We've lost our brick, and to morrow we'll bo found out.' Then another voice called out : '('ant you sec it ? We might hook it up.' Next I saw a long neck protruding through the hole, and a fellow peering down. Then 1 called out : 'If von trouble any more of those potatoes I'll shoot.' That fellow's heail shot hack through that hole just like a terrapin, and it was as still as death up there. 1 hated to toll on then), because it was such a sharp scheme of foraging on the enemy, but I had to. When the officers went up next morning to examine the room it took a long time to find the hole. Those Yankees had cut a hole about a foot square through the floor, and it was done so neatly that it took good eyes to discover it. That was where the officers' yams went to." * , Tin: I>iac.i'iika or Infants?Ihning otic of the discussions on the alimentation and diseases of infants, which occupy so much attention in France, M Jules (iucrin stated tint (ho addition o; a little charcoal {about lnlf a tcnspoonfu! of Ilclluc's or other finely powdered charcoal^ to a nursin-.' bottle full of milk exerts a most remarkable curative effect upon the diarrhea of infants.

Having returned from the front iu June, lSl>2, business called uie to the town of Wabash, Iud., some time iu July. They were organizing regiments in a cauip south of the town.? Colonel U was*Commissioned for the Indiana llcgiuiout. Tho drum beat for battalion drill. The Colonel rode out with a book iu his hand, from which lie was" tending the commands. After the adjutant had formed the companies in line, the Colqncl took his position ueat the center and gave the commands: "Attention, battalion! Forward march I" lie forgot the "right face," and the regiment commenced moving toward him. Then lie commanded a halt and broke out in a roar : "What in thunder did you do that way for ? 1 want you to get in two liues oi' fight and icuf/i cmficin/s like you did yesterday. We are going over in the llat to drill, condemn yo; I don't want you inarching out hcie where I am. There aie too many rocks and stumps here to drill and you ought to know i'/ yourselves." The same Colonel appointed the noncommissioned officers, but lie insisted that the Coventor ol' the State had to sign their warrants, or they were not legal appointments. On one occasion, coining up the road where i? made a square bend, he gave no command of "tile left." The lilo loader of Company A kept ou in a straight line in military style until he came up to the side of a barn. There of course ho stopped and marked time.

As a fiber it is largely taking the place of ilux and hemp in coarse products, and it is also said to be much used in much finer goods,some of the I handsomest carpets being partly of jute.? '1 here is no doubt but the demand is to be largo an 1 to steadily increase. lute is as easily raised as corn, and planted in March or April, it may be harvested in Juno, July and Asgust, after cotton has been laid, and at a time when there is no special call upon the farm force. The luboi of cultivation is light, as its growth is sc rank as to overshadow everything else in the field, and its yield is simply enormous. There is a very wide field of industry in ! jute cultivation, and one which will eventually Income very profitable. The importa' lions of jute during the year ending Juno Jo. 13S0, were over $7,000,000, all of which can easily ho produced at Louie.?Jiarui X> ic Yorb r ? - - ?? !
