In all my experileuce I never know a negro womn to run away. nor did I ever hear of a blood hound biting man or woman, Some times bad negro men ran away and wore properly punislied wle. t hey camo back, or woce taken up and brought back. I never heard of half a dozen runaways in our county. As a rule all negroes were humanely treated. Evory mastor know that it impaired their value to treat them otherwise. Percy Gregg declares, in his history, that tho Southern slaves woro the best treated servants the world ovor saw. Tho young, and the old were cared for kindly and affecsionately by master and mistress, and their condition was iolinitoly better than the poor of Eng land or Gormany or of the Northern United States.

Y-SEl-AN'is.-T'his good story conies from Go ion. A tea planter, wtho had a glass eye, was very desirous to go and have a day's shooting with a friend, but lie know that immediately the nit'lves who wore at work on the plantation got wor1 that he was away they would not do a stroko of work. Llow was lie to got ol?-that was the (I uest ion. Afiter much thought an idea struck him. Going upi to the men he ad dIressedi thorm thus: "'Although I myself will he absent, yet I will leave one of my eyes to see that, you do our work." And, mnuch to the surpriso and be wiilermoint of thbe natives, ho took out the glass eye and placed it on the tump of a tree anid left. F'or some time the niatives worked like ole phiants, now and thben casting furl Livo glances at, the eye to see if it were still watching ;but at last one of them, seizing his tin in which he carrioz his food, approached the troo and gently plaed~ it over the eye. As soon as they saw thbat 1,boy were not beinig watched~ they all lay down slept peaceful ly until sunset. -Thore Is a little story going the roundls regarding the reward given the soldiers. It Is said that in battle the privates occupy the lir-ing line, the corporals are one yard In the rear of tibe prlvates, the sergeanits are Live yards in the rear of the corporals, the lioutenant,a twenty-lve yards In the rear of the sorgeants, the captains 125 yards in the rear ol tho lieutenants, the moajors 200) yardIs in the rear of thbo captains, the colonels 500 yards in the roar of the majors, the generals 5,,000 yards in the rear of the colonels, whilo the commanding general is at Washington, [D.C. After the battle the( commzzanding general gets 98 por cent of the glory, the brigadier general 14 per cent, the colonel i per cent; other comnmissioned oilicers get the balance, while the privates get talked about on the lourth of July. -When the Trwentieth regiment left Tlopoka it was piresented with a beau tiful silk flag, known technically as the regimental colors. This flag is said to be a sight to behold at the present timne-ragged and dirty and riven with biiots. On the enid of the ilagstff is a oronzo. eagle, and at the battle of l.uquori this eagle was struck with a Mauser bullet, in such a fashion that the old bird is cocked over to one sIde in a tipsy but belligerent sort of an attitude which miakes every body laugh. -A circus elephant noeding medical treatment was recently chloroformed In Il'eru, I nd.
