Beep er : Old Col. D ,of the Mobile District, waa one of the moat singular characters ever known in Alabama. He was ie»ty and eccen tric, but possesses tnasj fine qualities, which were fully appreciated by the people of the District. Many of his freaks are afresh in the memory of the 'old ’.ns’ es Mobiie-and alt of then will tell you that the Ceionei. though hard to beat, waa once terribly taken in by a couple of legal tyre*. It is \ieorge Wood ward, 1 believe, who tells the story, but howev er that may be, it is in keeping with others re lated of the old gentleman. It seems that Col. D had had a misun derstanding with the two gentlemen alluded to. and was riot on a peaking term* wiih them, although all of the three were professionally rid ng the circuit pretty much together. The young ones being well awaro of the Coleoel'a irrascible nature, determined a* they left one of the courts for another, to have some sport at his expense on the way. They accordingly having got about half an hear’sstart in tearing , and presently the* arrived at h bread dark stream that looked as ifit might be a dozen feet deep but which in reality «r* hardly more than as many inches Crossing they alighted, pulling off their coats and boots, and sal down quietly to watch for the old “Tartar. Jogging along at length, up came theold fal low. He looked first at the youngsters who were gravely drawing on their boots and coats, as if they bad jusi had a swim—and then he looked at the broad creek before him like a flu eat, translucent star. The Colonel was awfal iy puzzle'’, *• la tbijif d d creek swimming f' be growled after a pause efsome moments. No reply was made ; the young men simply mounted their horses and rode off some little distance, aad stopped to watch our hero. The Colonel slowly divested hitmetf of boots, coat, pantaleeu* and drawers. These he neatly tied up in bis handkerchief,and hung them on the horn es his saddle- Then he re mounted, and as he was a fat, abort man, with a paunch of inordinary size, rather inadequate logs, a face like a withered apple aad a brown wig, there is ne donbl he made an interesting picture as he bestrode L is stood with tha "breeze holding gentle dalliance'’ with the lower extremity of his only garment. 81 wly and cautiously did the old gentleman and his horse take the creek. Half a length, and tha water was not fetlock deep. Here the horse stopped to drink A length and a halt and the stream was no deeper Thirty feel farther, and a decided shoaling ! Here Cel. D reined op. ’There must,’ raid he, ’be a h —l of a swift channel between, this and the bank ; see how the water runs. We will dash through 1” A sharp lash made the hors* spring the ‘‘wa tery waste ,”aod another carried the herso and rider safely to the opposite bank. Tho creek was nowhere mere than a (oot deep A wild yell from the ‘young ’on*’ announced tbeir appreciation of tke sport as they (shopped away. “I’ll catch yon, you rascals ! ’ was ground under Col. D ’s teeth, and away I he gallopped in hot pursuit, muttering ven geance on his foes. On—on they speed ! partner and pnrsued! the youngsters laughed, yelled aad screamed — the Colonel damned with mighty emphasis, and hie shirt floated and crackled in the wiad like a loose flying jib. On—on—and the pursuer reached the farm honre on the road side. Their passing star tled a flock of geete, which as the Colonel dashed up, met Kim with outstretched wings, elongated necks and hisses dir* His horse swerved suddenly, and the Colonel in a mo ment was in a most uaremantlc heap with his own brown wig by his side, and bit bundles es clothes scattered around. The white headed children of the house came out first, took a distant view of (be mon ster —as it seemed to them—and then returned to report progress. After a little, tho father of the family came, and the affair being explain ed, assisted the Coione I in making his toilet, the Colonel swearing and the countryman laughing ail the while Dressed and remounted our hero started off with a wofe! phiz, and was soon out of sight. Another Physician’s Testimony* Mr. POWLE—Dear Sir: f could send yon & doa n certificates, strong and decisive, of the really anative effects of your valuable Balsam of Wild Cherry, within the past (waive months, under my own supervision and direction. Indeed, I know of few persons who have used it, comparatively, but commend it in the strongest terms. A case of Asth ir a, ihe severest I ever saw, to which i was called a month ago, evinced tbe superiority of tho Balsam. This disease lasted six weeks, and the dysfsaea and suffering was dreadful ; he «al up every night. The gentleman told me tc give him somethin! to last him home, (21 miles,) so that he wight *ee his wife and child, nod die in peace 11 save him one boale of the Balsam, and four ounces es syrup squids, direct ing him to take tea-spoonful dcees of best Bordeaux olive oil, when tbe difficulty es breathing was great est. Next day 1 forced his despondent will, end made him take six bottles of W istar’e Balsam of Wild Cherry home with him as a present, he having alleged that he bad used so much expensive medi cines to no profit. List week Mr. A. caded and expressed his gratitude to me in the warmest man ner, said the medicine had saved his life, paid his whole bill, and took six bottles more, and left my office for home, rejoicing.
