Now does you really put dat statement down as a fack?" "Yes, old mau, the statement, in a measure, is true." Yes ; well I'se sorter tuck up dat notion myself. I want ter succeed in my undertakings, so I wants yer to sorter fix up a advertisement fur me." "What do you want to advertise?" "Well, yer see, I'se running a revival meeting out here at de Moss Rock church, an' wid all my energy au? what sorter prize is it when yer pushes a thing ?" "Enterprise." "Yes, sah, dat'sit. A good word, too lemme tell yer. Well, wid all my enterprise I couldn't get de sinners to come up to de mourner's bench. De * J 1 L.. sinners tries to spiain aemseives uy saying dat times is bard, and dat dar ain't much business.

Now ef dar is anything what makes me feel limphatic?dat's anuder good word, boss, I got it from a show man?it's fur a buck nigger to shake his kinks round me." "Jes state in yer paper that Parson Nicholas is got de best mourner's bench in de country ; dat ebery convenience is provided. And put in dis here clinchin' clause: 'Mourners what come to dis bench is warranted ter pull though in half the time required at any udder bench. De ligion got at dis bench has numerous?dat's a handsome wordtestimonials from prominent church members showing it ob a superior quality, and is inshored for a year." "Will you put dat in? Yes? Much obliged ter you. Say, boss, can't you fling in suthin about dat nigger preacher ober de creek stealing corn ? Dat's opposition. Jes say dat he stole six bushels of corn from a white man. No; come ter think about it, boss, don't say nothin' about de com, because dat was fore we fell out and I was wid him at de time." STICKING TO BUSINESS. Here's a good story, which the boys in camp will appreciate, told recently at the Army and Navy club, says the Washington Post. It illustrates an Irishman's disposition to carry out his orders. Hugh Mc., a son of the Emerald Isle, who had volunteered in the Sixth regiment of South Carolina infantry, was stationed at the beach on J "'Wh ofvinf rvrrlore tn OUlUVail S isiauu, mtu suivt vw walk between two points and to let no one pass without the countersign, and that to be communicated only in a whisper. Two hours afterward, the corporal, with the relief, discovered by the moonlight Hugh up to his waist in water, the tide having set in since he was posted. "Who goes there ?" "Relief." "Halt, relief. Advance, corporal, and give the countersign." "I am not going in there to be drowned. Come out here and let me relieve you." "Divil a bit of it; the lieutenant told me not to lave me post." "Well, then, I'll leave you in the water all night" (going away as he spoke). "Halt ! I'll put a hole in ye if ye pass without the countersign. Them's me orders from the leftenant." (Cocking and leveling his gun.) "Confound you, everybody will hear it if I bawl it out to you." "Yes, me darling, and the leftenant said it must be given in a whisper.

The bloody tide has a-most drowned me." Prepared for Emergencies.?A clergyman, well known for his love of "horseflesh," was driving through a country village the other day, breaking in a new horse, when he overtook a doctor of his acquaint ance on foot. "Jump iu, doctor," he cried, pulling up, "V ve got a horse here that it is a perfect treat to sit behind." The doctor jumped in, and the parson drove off. The horse was "a treat" in the sense of speed and skittishness, and presently stood stock still, and shot both hind legs underneath the trap, splitting it to pieces and throwing out both the occupauts. The doctor jumped to his feet, feeling himself all over to see if he was injured. The man of cloth also got upon his feet. "Look here!" exclaimed the doctor, "what on earth do you meau by inviting me to ride behind a horse like mai r "Well, you see," gasped the jovial cleric, "luckily there are no bones brokeu ; but when breakiug in a beggar like this, I like to have a doctor with me!" J6T "Mr. Dusenberry, here's the story of a man's hair turned white from fright. Now, that's a little hard to believe," isn't it?" "Oh, no, my dear. The medical books are full of such cases. I once saw a girl's hair turn white right before my own eyes. She was on a chair back reaching for preserves on the top shelf of a pantry. The chair tilted and she fell heavily to the floor." "And her hair turned white?" "When I helped her up her hair was as white as the wall." "Oh, that's an exaggeration, Mr. Dusenberry. Caused by fright, was it?" "Well, I don't know that I'll iusist upon that part of it my dear. She had landed her head in the flour barrel." Wiutsitlc Gatherings. BSf The best of all men are but men at the best.

(Teller. A REMARKABLE RAT STORY.' BY ANNIE AHHMORE. One evening I found myself gliding dreamingly upon the pale and shimmering waters of the Ilhine, in company with some hundreds of others, who, like myself, were gazing rapturously at the panoramic succession of chef d'cevres of nature. I had become separated from my party somewhat, and was standing elbow to elbow with a man whose long robe and Hat cap proclaimed him a son of Israel, when we came in sight of that tiny islet, whereupon is built the "Rat Tower," famed in legend. Here it was, I believe, that the wicked Bishop Hatton, who refused to opeu his granaries to the starving people of the little town, had eveutually to retire from the myriads of rats, which in judgment haunted him. "And he did not escape them after all," remarked my informer, as if in answer to my thoughts, "for they swam after him, and swarmed into the tower, and ate him, body and bones, in his bed. For all that, I like rats." And he cast a side glance at me, as if he would be happy to explain himself. A little surprised at three peculiarities about him?his Yankee accent, his communicativeness, and his last remark?I turned to look at him. I saw a luxuriant mass of dark beard and hair, and a pair of keen black eves recardinu me over a tower ing aquiline nose. "Yes, I like 'em," continued he, "for if it wasn't for rats I wouldn't be standing here this evening enjoying all this fine scenery like a gentleman. If ever I get to be a Baron Rothschild," and he naively held up his seedy loose cloak with a laugh, "I'll have for my crest a carriage drawn by a swarm of rats and myself as the driver." "Why?" I asked, curiously. "Want to hear a rather queer story ?" be returned. "Take this seat, then," dragging a campstool toward me, "and while I go on with my yarn you can go on with your sketching. Wish you'd give me that one of the 'Rat Tower,' you've just finished?for a memento, ye know." "I tore it out of my book and immediately handed it to him. He put it away with profuse thanks, then continued, in a confidential tone : "Once upon a time, when I was over on your side of the water, I was put in quod?Sing Sing, ye know?and it was to be for five years. Don't be scared." (I had drawn back a trifle.) "I was as innocent as?well, as yourself ; but accidents will happen in the best regulated families, and there was I, instead of the right man, sentenced to five years with hard lahor?lor no matter what. I was to go at the stonebreaking as soon as I was able, my health was rather weakly, and thinks I, it'll be a good while before it gets better, so I shammed sick, bamboozled the doctor, ye know?waiting until something would turn up." "The right man would have been the best thing to turn up," remarked I, a little incredulously. "Yes, but ye see, he didu't," returned he, with a sharp look, "aud I never expected he would. Well, the governor was getting about tired of my weak health when six weeks was past, and had just made up his mind that a turn in the opeu air with the chain gang would do me a world of good, when?I shifted my bob." "When you what ?" "Cut ray lucky?bolted?door unbolted?whichever you like." "You escaped?" ejaculated I covered with dismay at the nature of my acquaintance. "That's it," responded he with a wink, but don't be uneasy. I was the .w-l.t Wnnf fn lrnnir Ilglll/ UiilUj J O TTMl.ll/ V\S how'twas done ? Ruts." "Yes," I faintly responded, trying in vain to single out my friends from the crowd. "It took 'em six weeks, but they worked hard, the little beggars. You see, I'd been mopin' there in my bed fur three days wondering how I was to get clear of the 'bard labor' part of the business, and when the jailer gave me my supper in the evening I just chucked it at the back of the bed, to show him I was loo sick to eat. That night I thought the rats would eat me up; they ran over the bed in dozeus, and whenever I fell asleep they tried nibbling my ears when everything else gave out, and such a squeaking and a fighting and a backbiting, and a tailbaring never was heard tell of unless at an old maids' sewiug circle." Witty in his way, but if it had not been for the fellow's piercing eyes fixed point blauk ou my face, holding me spellbound, I would have rushed to the other end of the boat, to get clear of him and his horrible story. "Well, when daylight came I found wknl tlip rniv hint hppn nhrwit TlieV had eaten up every scrap of bread, and gnawed the very mattress in holes to get at the soup I had spilled. This set me to thinking, and by nnd by I hatched a plan that's not often been tried, I fancy. "Every time I got my porringer of soup after that I smeared the door just round the lock with the soup, and set the bench up, so as the rats could run up and down at their convenience; and I was careful not to let another particle of food lie arouud the cell to divert their attention. They were pretty shy at first, and would hanker round the mattress, but by and by they began to sneak up, one and another of 'em, to smell and lick ; and then more came, and the gnawing began, and as long as I kept it greased they went on with the work that I had set out for 'em like paid Christians." "Extraordinary!" "Yes; you don't look as if ye believed a word of it though. Never told it to anybody yet who could all at once take it in. Fact, though ! Yes, sir, aud wheu they found I wasn't go- i ing to hurt, 'em they grew as bold as j little clogs, and would swarm up and dowu that bench, and gnaw at that . door all night long. I always took the beuch away in the daytime, and they knew as well as I did when night was coming, and when I went back with the bench I could hardly tread for 'em about my feet. r "There wasn't the least chance of the jailer 'smelling a rat,' for, don't ye * see, the cell was half dark all the time, [ and if he had come in he'd never have \ noticed the way the door was going, ."t But he wouldn't have come in for ?">, ( he was so scared of the rats, and ueith- j er would the doctor. I used to stand < at the grating to answer the doctor's < questions, and the rats would run all over me before his very face till he'd '< poke away in sheer disgust; and as for H the jailer, he'd poke my victuals in and shout, 'Grab yer grub, or you'll be too ( late!' ( *'T holtouo thou holrl n moptins' {lhollt C * ~ ? ? ?? o . me and my rats, and resolved to put 1 me in another cell, but I begged 'em with tears to let me stay, for says I, 'Them creeturs is company to me? hurt not a hair of their heads!' ^ "Then they sent me a rattrap and ? some poison, but you may be sure I 1 didn't do a big busiuess with them, * [though I did put two or three useles ^ old fellows in the trap that had got t their teeth all broken and blunted. t "The creeturs got so cunning! They v used to follow me about like little ? black shadows, with their eyesshiuing c like needles, and their teeth gritting, t until the grub would come along, and ' then I had to fight 'em off while I . bolted my share. J "Well, I was there for six weeks, i and I heard I was to go on the chain- f gang next day. Thinks I, 'Not for ? Joe !' So that night I tried the wood ? of the door, and sure enough the rats had done for it. I poked my fingers through as if it had been brown paper, [and in a jiffy had the lock picked with " a crooked nail. "I was kind of sorry to leave the little beggars, but I just put two of 'em in my pocket, and kicked the rest . of 'em back, and shut them in, and J then I walked out as bold as brass past the watchman in the passage, and got out through the gate under the ' gov'ner's own carriage as he was goin' out to a hop. ' I guess he hopped some next day ! i Would ye like to see the little varments that helped me out of quod ? I've kept 'em ever siuce, and?here they c are." S He opened the flaps of his outside ( pockets, and out jumped two immense , rats. \ This was a drop too much.

Austin Bidwell started life as i clerk in Wall Street, and soon mccumbed to the allurements >f the primrose way. His first eriminal venture was a trip to Europe to sell stolen bonds. Af;er a few similar enterprises in New York, he returned to Europe vitli a pair of shrewd confederates and engaged in a svsteinitic campaign of swindling the )rincipal banks of the continent, rhe conspirators were so successul in this that they next laid iiege to the seemingly impreglable vaults of the Bank of En >dand, and actually succeeded in lecuring over /T, 000,000 by artully executed forgeries. But retibution came at last, and this mlliant coup cost Mr. Bidwell jo years in English prisons. The story of his experiences is old in "From Wall Street to Newgate. It is replete with Stirring Incidents, Marvelous Adventures, Hairbreadth Escapes md remarkable experiences, such is few men have met with. They are narrated in an easy, jicturesque style, evincing siu:eritv and candor, with 110 ateinpt at sensation or exaggeraion. The truth told is stranger than iction, and history may be clialenged to produce another life nto which has come so many aried and bewildering events, or 0 disclose another character, rained in a religious home, havng culture and an unusual busiless talent, whose deflections from he path of honor has stirred to tc vprv dentil tlie entire civilized ,vorld.
