A little old womau with a sharp noso uod sharper touguo was iu the couutry grocery store buying supplies. Among other things she brought iu from her curt was u battle scarred jug, which she ordered to be filled with treacle. At last, when her parchaeoa were completed, she began looking over the account, item by item, before paying. “What’sthis?” shuexclaimed. “You have charged mo for two gallons and a half of treacle.’’ “Yts, ma’am.” “But that jug holds only two gal lons. ” “You must bo mistaken. I measured the treacle carefully, and it took two gallons and a half to fill it.” “Well,.” said the old woman with a sigh, .“x don’t so much mind having to pay for the treacle, but I do object to having the old jog strained by your putting in half a gallon more than it will hold.”—Strand Magazine. St -Mrs. j. t. m. — -*•> • / Written From Wilhe, Willie, 8. C., July 9.—War is per haps a drastic measure by which to bring about national prosperity, but there is hardly any doubt but what we will, after this war is over, have an area of prosperity unprecedented in the history of nations. Spain will most assuredly have to pay to our government an indemnity, at least, to the amount of the actual expences of tho war, and while at first glance, it would seem that that would be only reembursing us for what we have spent, it will, in reality be adding just that much to the fi nances of our country. From the fact that the money paid out in war expences, is, to a great extent, paid out to the people of oar own country. Why the government has run the war so far without having to go in debt one cent, that is if the maxim, that the people are the government is true. It is true that the government has issued bonds to the amount of two hundred millions of dollars, but the entire amount of them has been subscribed for and, taken up by the people, and is also true that they will get 3 per cent, interest on their money, but we think that the benefit derived by the country, at large will very much over balance the small amount of interest paid on the bonds. I invariably believe that it would bo a capitol plan, even in time of peace, when even the money market become stringent, or in other words, during a “panic,” for the government to issue bonds to be subscribed for solely by the people, thereby drawing the money of the country from saving banks and putting it into circula tion. Bill has decided to volunteer to go to Cuba, just us soon as they get all of the Spaniards killed out, but he will have to be sure that they are all dead, he would be afraid to face, even a wounded Spaniard, you know he might happen to get hold of a gun. Bill. Grover Gossip. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Grovek, N. C., July 12.—The cool and refreshing breezes are still blow ing from the north. It seems this morning as if autumn was upon us. The thermometer stands at 08 de grees, which seems very low for mid summer. The picnic at King’s Mountain bat tle ground was quite a success. There were just plenty of good things to eat and a large crowd to eat them. The people were not so generous with their dinner us usual. They had no public table as had been their cus tom at that place, but all who wished went out and spread dinner together. I hope all who deserved dinner got it. I believe those who failed to get dinner got a plenty of corn cider. Rev. Mr. Bally, of Cowpens, de livered an excellent address on “his tory.” Quite a large crowd gathered around the stand and listened atten tively while he spoke of tho great battle fought on that glorious old hill, aa well as a number of other battles fought elsewhere.

The burglar who doea goveral “jobe” and eludes the officers of the law is a keen observer, a man of forethought, and ono whose executive ability is un questioned. Houses are not entered be cause they have brownstono fronts, nor are stores broken into by the profes sional thief without an investigation. When the skillful burglar is to do a “job,” he studies the habits of the resi dent or proprietor. In a case in Troy a few years ago a jewelry store was rob bed. Apparently there was not a clew. Detectives were placed on tho case and named the thieves by the method em ployed in getting into tho store, and subseqnently the thieves were convicted. Certain burglars always enter a cellar and coma up through stairs, floor or trapdoors. Others have skeleton keys. Others go above and come down stairs. Some break in rear and others front doors. In the robbery above referred to tho two thieves had been iu Troy three successive Saturday nights. They had fastened a silk thread on all entrances iu such a way that if any one entered or left the store the thread would be broken. Thns tho bnrglurs learned that the proprietor and olerks did not visit the store after closing Saturday night until Sunday. The fourth Saturday night they “cracked” the safe. Except for their methodical way of entering (by the cellar) no snspioion would have attached itself to them.—Troy Times. Oaffoay, and Macon Phannaoy, Blaokaburg. Thornton’a A Diai-UHted Hero. The story of Sergeant Walker, who was kept prisoner for six weeks by the Afridis and was court martiuled for being “absent without leave,” reminds me of an Indian tale of 1757, when a man-o’-war’s man, Struhan by name, captured almost single banded one of tho forts on the Hoogly. The fort, which was strongly situated, was in vested by the admiral, and Strabau, during the time of midday repose, wan dered off “on hia own” in its direction. Gaining the walls without discovery, be took it into bis head to scale a breach made by tho cannon of the ships, and on reaching the platform he flourished his cutlass and fired his pistol ut “the niggurs,” shouting, “The place is mine!” The native soldiers attacked him, and ho held his own with indomitable pluck till re-enforced by one or two other tars who had straggled out of camp and beard his huzzas. The enemy, unpre pared from this ill timed attack and fearing farther invaders, fled from tho fort upon the opposite side, leaving 20 cannon and a large store of ammuni tion. Mach to Strahan’s surprise, he was lectured by the admiral for his breach of discipline, and be was dis missed with bints of future punish ment. “Well,” said Strahan, “if I’m flogged for this here action, I’m d d if I ever takes another fort as long ns I lives!”--London Sketch.
