Artemus Ward in the South?His Trials and Adventures. I had a narrer scape from the sonny South. uThe swings and arrers of outrajus fortin," alluded to by Hamlick, warn't nothing in comparison to my trubles. I came pesky near swearing sum profane oaths morern o*'Ct, but I hope I didn't do it, for I've promist she whose name shall be nameless (except that her initials is Betsy J.,) that I'll jine the Meeting House at Baldwinsville jest as soon as I can scrape money enuff together so I can be piuss in good stile, like my wealthy nabers. But if I'm comfisticated again, I'm fraid I shall continner on in my present benited state for sum time. I figgered conspicyusly in many thrillin scenes in my tower from Montgomry to my humsted, and on sevril occasions I thought "the grate komic paper" wouldn't never be inriched no more with my lubrications. Arter biddin adoo to Jefferson D. I started for the depo. I saw a nigger sittin on a fence a playin on a banjo. "My Afrikin Brother," sed I, cotin from a Track I onct red, "you belong to a very interestin race. Your masters is goin to war excloosively on your account." "Yes, boss," he replied, and he went on playin' the banjo, larfin all over and openin' his mouth wide enuff to drive in an old fashioned 2 wheeled chaise. The train of cars in which I was to trust my wallerable life was the scaliest, rickytiest lookin' lot of consarns that I ever saw on wheels afore. "What time does this string of second hand coffins leave!" I inquired of the depot master. He sed directly, and I went in and sot down. I hadn't more'n fairly squatted afore a dark lookin man with a swinister expression onto his countenance entered the cars, and lookin' very sharp at me, he asked what was ray principles ? "Secesh!" I ansered. "I'ma Dissoluter. I'm in favor of Jeff. Davis, Bouregard, Pickens, Capt. Kidd, Bloobeard, Monroe Edards, the devil, Mrs. Cunningham, and all the rest of 'em." c r 9" " X ou re III iftvui vi me nai . "Certingly. By all means. I'm in favor of this war and also of the next war. I've been in favor of the next for over sixteen years !" "War to the knife !" sed the man. "Blud, Eargo, blud !" sed I, though them words isn't origgernal with me.? Them words were writ by Shakespeare, who is ded. His Mantle fell on to the 'author of "Seven Sisters," whose goin to have a Spring overcoat made out of it. We got under way at last, an' proceeded on our journey at about the rate of speed which is ginerally observed by properly conducted funeral processions. A hansum young gall, with a red muskeeter bar on the back part of her bed, and sassy little black hat tipt over her forred, sot in the seat with me. She wore a little Sesesh pin'd onto her hat, and she was goin to her troo love, who had jined the Southern army, and so bold and so gay. So she told me. She was chilly and I offered her my blanket. "Father livin?" I axed. "Yes sir." "Got any Uncles?" "A heap. Uncle Thomas is dead, tho." "Peace to Uncle Thomas' ashes, and success to him! I will be your Uncle Thomas! Lean 011 me, my pretty Secesher, and linger in Blissful repose !" She fc^ept as secoorly as in her own housen, and didn't disturb the solium stillm ss of the night with 'ury snore. At the first station a troop of Sojers entered the cars and inquired if "Old Wax Works" was on board. That was the disrespective stile in which they referred to me. "Becawz if Old Wax Works, is on board,' with a face like a double-brested lobster, "we are going to hang Old Wax Works !" "My illustrious and patriotic Bummers!" sez I, a gittin up and taking orf my Shappo, "if you allude to A. Ward, its my pleasin dooty to inform you that he's ded. He saw the error of his ways at 15 minutes past 2 yesterday, and stabbed hisself with a stuffed sledstakc, divinin in five beautiful tabloos to slow moosic! His last words was: "My perfeskernal career is over! I jerk no more!" "And who be you ?" "I'm a stoodent in Senator Benjamin's law ofFms. I'm going up North to steal sum spoons and things for ibe Southern Army." This was satisfactory, and the intossiciated troopers went orf. At .he next station, the pretty little Seccs.-Jie- awoke and sed she must get out there. I bid her adoo and giv her sum pervisiiions. "Accept my blessin' and this hunk of gingerbred!" I sed. She thankt me muchly and tript away. * There's considerable human nater in a man, and I'm fraid I shall allers give aid and comfort to the enemy if he cuius to mo in the shape of a nice young gal. At the next station I didn't get orf so easy. I was dragged out of the car.* and rolled in the mud for several minits for the purpuss of "takin' the con sect out of me," as a Scesher kindly I was let up finally, when a powerfu large Secesher came up and embracer me, and to show that he had no hart feelings agin me, put his nose into m\ mouth. I returned the compliment bj placing my stummick suddenly agii his right foot, when he kindly made a spittoon of his able bodied f cc. Actooated by a desire to see whether tin Secesher had been vaxinated, I thei fastened ray teeth onto his left coatsleeve and tore it to the shoulder. Wt then vilently bunted our heads together for a few minutes, danced around a little, and sot down in a mudpudle, We riz to our feet agin an by a sudden & adroit movement I placed ray lefl eye agin the Seccsher's fist. We then rushed into each other's arm: and fell under a too lioss wagon. 1 was very much exhausted and didn't care about gettin up agin, but the man said lit reckoud I'd better, and I conclooded i would. He pulled me up, but 1 hadn't bin on ray feet more n two seconds afore the ground flew up and hit me in the hed. The crowd said it was high old sport, hut I couldn't zakly see| where the lafture comes in. I riz and j we embraced agin. We careered mad-| ly to a steep bank, when I got the upper hands of my antagernist and tinv.v. him into the raveen. He fell about! forty feet, striking a grindstone pretty hard I understood he was injured. I havent heard frcin the grindstone. A man in a jockt hat cum up and std he feii as tho a apology was doo me. There was a mistake. The crowd had taken me for another man ! I told him not to mention it, axed him if his wife and little ones was so's to be about, and got on bored the train, which had stopped at that station "20 minits for refreshments." I got all I wantid. It was the hartiest meal I ever et. I was rid on a rale the next day, a bunch of blazin fire crackers bein tied to my coat tales. It was a fine spectycal in a dramatic pint of view, but I didn't enjoy it. I had other adventures of a startlin kind, but why continner ? Why lasserate the Public Boozum with these here things? Suffysit to say I got across Mason and Dixie's line safe at last. I made tracks for my humsted, but she with whom I'm harnist for life failed to recognize, in the emashiated bein' who stood before her the gushin youth of forty-summers, who had left her only a few months afore. But I went into the pantry, and brought out a certin black bottle. Raisin it to my lips, I sed, "Here's to you, old gal!" I did it so natural that she knowedmeat once. "Those form! Them voice! 'Tishe!" she cried, and rushed into my arms. It was too much for her, & she fell into a swoon. I cum very near swounding myself. No more to day from yours for the Perpetration of the Union, and the bringin' of the Goddess of Liberty out of her present bad fix. ARTEMUS WARD. A Snoring Wife. Talk about your scolding wives and your smoky chimneys, but they ain't nowhere?they ain't a circumstance.? I would rather have a chimney that emits smoke enough to cure the whole family, and be forced to live with a dozen Xantippes all together, than to have to "put up" with a snoring wife. Oh ! the very idea makes a nervous man tremble from the top of his stovepipe hat to about a foot below the soles of his boots ! A snoring wife ! Boo-o-o-o ! But I started out to tell a story, and I arn going to do it. Well, "in life's morning inarch, when my bosom was young," I wooed and; won the beautiful and accomplished] Miss Ann M. Dash. The difficulties id. the courtship I will not here enum.: :.'o. for they will not weave into the pl?.u :! this story, which is intended to be shor i! ?very short. The appointed time for the wedding arrived, and hundreds of young people, from far and near, assembled at the mansion of the old man Dash, to witness the ceremony and "trip the light fantastic toe." It was a brilliant wedding, and ''Happiness, our being s end and aim," was ours. When a couple really love, the!.* wedding-day is the happiest of their lives, and if they should be unfortunate in after life, they look back to that day as a bright oasis in the desert of their memory. About two o'clock in the morning the company broke up and we went to bed. Before I got to sleep my wife began to more. I was dumbfounded. "Ye gods !" I mentally ejaculated, "is this a reality? Is it possible that I am bound up for life to a woman who snores?" 1 was miserable. Here I had been just a moment before in ccstacies over the possession of, as I thought, a treasure. "Can I love her?" I asked of :nv heart, and the answer instantly came, "It is impossible?" I debated with myself whether or not I should "secede," but snoring was not a ground of divorce. It ought to be? "you bet." I sat up in bed, and from thinking I went to talking. "I can't and won't stand this ; I'll just get up and leave, let the consequences be what it may. I love her, 1 knew, but 1 did not know that she snored." About this time I noriceed that she had quit snoring, and was shaking the bed with suppessed laughter, and I began to see that I was sold. There never was a poor devil, before nor since, that rejoiced more at discovering that he had been sold. "Why," said she, "I thought 3'ou ! promised to take me for bettet or for i worse; but here you are raising a row, and threatening to leave me at the first ldtle fault you find about me." "Well, said I, "I will make the same i promise again, if you won't snore ; but I'll be hanged if I wouid live with a snoring wife ten minutes." The Sentiment of Nor;. Virginia.?A gentleman wh li t- i .-: 1 arrived from this section, state.- ' ' one can appreciate, without beii^. % on the spot, the intense excitement a:. : terrorism uicli exists throughout tin. ' country. No matter what may he tin ' social position of gentlemen, their pre' vous association or social qualities, unless they fully coiP' Vn' with the Union sentiment of the masses, they are drivI on from their homes by vandal Virgin1 ians, urged on to the perpetration o; 1 acts of malice and violence by the pros ence of the federal troops. \mon? r those who have been compelled to flet t fiom their homes and seek refuge ir t the mountains is ex-Governor Johnson. - of Harrison county; Rob't Johnson ? esq., from Clarksburg, a former auditoi i of the State; Mr. Newlon and family - Senator from the Taylor district ; Mr j Mortimer II.

" ; Our informant passed many of thest i refugees on the road, some of whom haci I j formiv lived in eastern Virginia, bill I were now being driven back by tlu ; I mercenaries of abolitionism. One ol ( these was an old man nearly seventy years of age, who, barefooted, was traveling with his wife and family ro a place j of safety, driving before hint his cattle II and sheep, and hastily collected housei' hold goods. In the course of the briel 9 <?J9iS9 <***? w colloquy which ensued be remarked, "Sir, I am over sixty years of age, but , as soon as my farnilly are in a place of -sd't-ty 1 -hall return to the house I have and if necessary shall defend it ; v ill* my life, and if it should happen t to be in ashes then I will die defending < my fence. The last drop of blood 1 } have shall be spent in the service of < Virginia." We are glad to observe that t the old spirit of seventy-six is not dead ! yet. There is plenty more of such stock \ in the State, and when the hour of battle is raging, their heroism will tell its , own tale.?Richmond Dispatch. ' Dixie Land. A correspondent of the New Orleans , Delta gives the following as the origin of the popular song of Dixie. Be this as it may, however, we imagine Dixie ' has taken too fast a hold on the affec- ( rtf rtur tr> he easily sriven *,u"? ... w 0 up. Albert Pike has written some pretty words to the lir. Noticing these * the writer in the Delta says: "Now, I do not wish to spoil a pretty . illusion, but the real truth is that Dixie is an indigenous Northern negro refrain, as common to the writer hereof as the lamp posts in New York city seventy . five years ago. It was one of the every day allusions of boys, at that time, in all of their out door sports. And no one ever heard of Dixie's land being other than that of Manhattan Island until recently, when it has been erroneously supposed to refer to the South, from its connection with pathetic negro allegory. "When slavery existed in New York, one 'Dixy' owned a large tract of land on Manhattan Island, and a large number of slaves. The increase of the slaves and the increase of the abolition sentiment caused an emigration of the slaves to more thorough and secure slave sections, and the negroes who were sent otf (many being born there) naturally looked back to their old homes, where they had lived in clover, with feelings of regret, as they could not imagine any place like Dixy's. Hence it became synonymous with an ideal locality, combining case, comfort and material happiness of every description. In those days negro singing and minstrelsy were in their infancy, and any subject that could be wrought into a ballad was eagerly picked up ; this was the case with 'JLhxie. it originated in New York, and assumed the proportions of a song there. In its travels, it has keen enlarged, and has 'gathered moss ii has picked up a 'note' hereandthere; a -chorus has been added to it, and from <:; indh-tlet 'chant' of two or three lion-- it has: become an elaborate melo1; : b e: the fact that it is not a south' : -i ->ng cannot b>- rubbed out, the fal' -' v is o popular to the contrary that i . * iois been at pains to state the r.ul origin of it." What tiie President iias done since his Arrival in Richmond.?We doubt if there has been a busier brain :n Virginia than that upon the shoulders of the Chief Magistrate of the Confedjerate States. Hardly had the dust of travel been brn-hed from his clothes before he was at work. Order books were examined, plans were scrutinized, suggestions offered, and improvements made. Within a week new reconnoissances have been ordered, engineers set to work at various points before unthqpught of, fortifications commenced, armies moved, and troops set in motion to the remotest limits of the Confederacy. New life has been infused into every department; confidence inspired in every heart; the slowcoaches of State Government have been replaced by the) locomotive policy of the chief, and as regards both men and measures, the preparations for war have been advan? i 1 ced at least six montlis. i\otwitnsmTiding this pressure of public business, the President has found time to make speeches, review troops, receive the congratulations of his admirers, supervise the transfer of the Government from Montgomery to Richmond, and enjoy the pleasures of social life. This is real energy. It shows that uwc have a Government," and that in Jefferson Davis we have a man fully equal to the emergencies of the time and requirements of his position.? Richmond Dispatch. Blistered Feet.?A Remedy.?1 had for several years two sons at school at Geneva, Switzerland. In vacations they in company with their tutor, made excursions through Switzerland, Italy, Germany, etc., on foot, bearing their knapsacks containing their necessary wants for a month. They were provided with a small bar of common brown soap, and before putting on their stockings. turned them inside out, and rubbed the soap well into the threads of them, consequently they never became ibot--o: e, or had blistered feet.
