One of the best known characters in
J.ynchburg, Va., is “Julie Early’s
higger Joe.” Joe is' an okl negro,
With all the dignity of a body servant
of the slavery days, and his affection
tor the General amounts to worship.
Jube owned Joe before tiie war, and
• wns him still, Joe never having been
freed, scorning to accept what he says
'does not belong to him, and saying as
long as Mass Jute was alive Joe is his
slave. Early is very fond of his slave,
pnd would shoot quicker in defence ot
the negro than anybody else. He hat
he likes in the town, and has instruc-*
'Uid store-keepers, no matter what Joe
wants) or how much it will cost, to
give it to l/ini afuT send the bill to his
iimster, ' Sometimes Early gets rather
the worse for whiskey, and then a
comical sight is seen. Joe follows
him like a dog, and when the General
gets Very drunk Joe will say:
“Mass Jube, you inns’ come home.”
“Why, you black rascal, what uo
you mean? I’m your master.”
• “Yes, Mass j'qbe, when you’se so
her; when you’se drunk I’se massa.”
“Well, I reckon you are right, old
mafi'. X’lJ go with you.”

Greeley was wry much given to profanity
when excited, but all the time that I knew
him I nev*?r heard a single profane word
fall from his lips, and my wife lias often
said the same. His temperate habits are
well known: he never touched anything in
the way of liquor except cider, and singu
larly enough, was very fond of cider.
“1 have a little boy 8 years old, who is
named Horace Greeley, and he has inher
ited this love for cider and dislike for
other liquors from his grandfather, illus
trating tiie great law of heredity. Mr.
Greeley was very positive in his con
victions, to illustrate: Dr. Wiiite, the late
president of t he Cornell universjty tells this
story of him: In company wit h tiie pro
fessor of Latin and Greek at the Cornell
university, Dr. White called upon Mr.
Greeley. The professor rallied Dir. Gree
ley upon his known objection to the dead
languages in the practical education of
. oung men and a hot discussion was com-
neii'.-ed. .Mr. Greeley plied argument upon
ir turnout until the professor was com
detely cornered.
“‘You must admit, Mr. Greeley,’he fi
nally cried, ‘iiiat the Latin and Greek are
he gteat conduits through which the
earning of the ancients have come down
oO LIS.'
“ Yes,’ said Mr. Greeley, ‘I admit that,
but,’ pointing to the water faucet, ‘you see
'.hat faucet: 1 drink tune or four glasses oi
water daily from that, and the watei
comes there through the Croton aqueduct.
Rut, my dear sir, is that any reason why 1
ihouU chew so much lead pipe?’ ”—St.
