Miscellaneous.
Samuel was a Calebs, but possessed it
tender and susceptible heart, and when
his eyes rested on the maidently attrac
tions of Gov. Ames’ servant girl, his
heart went out to her in all its gushing
tenderness, and he asked her to be his’n,
and accept him for her’n. The court
ship was as short as it was sweet and
blissful. Gov. A mes’ consent having
been obtained, the nuptials were duly
celebrated, and for a brief honey-moon
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Battles were two
of the happiest darkies in Mississippi.
Subsequent events, however, proved
that the union was an unfortunnte one
for Saraue'. He became too intimate
at the Capital with the practices of
State officials, and the result was, that
he burglarized the jewelry store of
his e mp'oycr, was caught, tried and
convicted. It was while at the Edwards
House, in Jackson, that we learned
these fncta by overhearing a conversa
tion between two prospective statesmen
of the fashionable shade of complexion.
They were talking the matter over
when one of them remarked deploringly
“ I didn’t think Sam was dut kind of a
ha’r pin.” “ Well,no," said the other,
•’ Sam, uacd to be a right ’spectitble
sort of a coon, but I jes’ knowed as
soon’s ever he married into Gov. Ames’
family, dat he’d go to stealin !”
A QUEER COURTSHIP.

Teaching a Darkey Etiquette.
—A ten-year old fifteenth amendment
of our town has been employed by a
high-dotted white family, who have
striven to teach him good manners.
The little cub was permitted to visit
his parents yesterday, and while there
concluded to remain and take dinner
at the old homestead. At the table
the youth, not forgetting the teachings
fied in the contract, but the husband
understanding that it was to be through
the Brunsw’c^er. • The wife nearly bit
the end of her tongue off in the first
day’s trial, snapping ap the harsh

words which tried to escape her lips.
But both were dismally peaceful until
the afternoon of the second day, when
lhe husband flew into a passion simply
because one of the children polished
his stocking foot while he was taking
his usual nap. At the first burst of
anger, bis wife quietly arose and put
ou her bonuet.
* Where are you going V he inquired,
suspiciously.
* To publish you.’
’ Oh, well, go ahead; the boys at
the office won’t give me much of a
blast.’
* But I’m not going to the printing
office.’
‘ Where, then ?’
* To the sewiug society.’
That brought hint to terms, and
long and earnestly he begged her not
to make bis weakness known .through
out the length and breadth of the laud.
Finally, in consideration of a new silk
dress, by him to be delivered, she
agreed to let bim oft.

them together, yet. still lie came,
and it was noticed that Aunt Patty
took nntiMiul pains with her dress
whenever lie was expected. One
day the contest waged unnsually
slrong, and Aunt Patty left in dis-
gnst and went out into the garden.
That !>cnr! she muttered to her
self as she stopped to gather a
flower which attracted her atten
tion.
What did you run for? said a
gruff voice behind her.
To get rid of you.
You didn’t do it, did you?
No; you are worse than a bur
dock burr.
Yoti won’t get rid of me, either.
I won’t eh?
Only in ono way.
And that ?
Marry me.
What! l T s two fools get mar

That's nothing to us. Come,
aay yes or no; I’m in a hurry.
Well, no, then.
Very well; good-bye, I shan’t

Stop a bit—what a pucker
you’re in.
Yes or no?
I must consult—
All right, I thought you wore

old darkey gave his dusky scion a
look, but passed over the bacon.
“ Hab sum of dis Irani fat on dat
bread ?” again asked the old man.
" Thanks, no sir,” was the reply.
This time the old loth showed his
teeth and the whites of his eyes, at
the same a ghastly grin was playiug
over his features. “ Honey, will you
take sum of dissyrup?” asked his mas
ternal parent. “ If you please, moths

man gave one yell, seized the spider
by the handle, and laid out this discis
pie of etiquette on the spot, ex

A Centennial Incident.—The
Boston Herald, as we suspect,
draws on its imagination for this:
“ Tho day following our centen
nial festivitives the following inci
dent occurred in a south end sa
loon : A friend bad invited one
oftbc South Carolina soldier into
the saloon to put another turf on
the buried batchct. While stand
ing at the bar, a stranger came in
The Carolinian suddenly dropped
his glass and clossly eyed the
stranger. His gaze was so steady
and peculiar that the friend began
to be alarmed and to fear tbat the
hatchet was about to be dug up
again. Directly tho Carolinian
asked the stranger If bo knew him.
There was no recognition where
upon the Carolinian asked him if
he was not in the late war. Yes,’
was the reply. * And you wore

The Ikon Mask.—The follow
ing anecdote was related to Chas.
Sumner by' General Cass, and is
given in A. B. Johnson's “ Re
collections of Charles Sumner,”
in Scribner for July: When Gen
eral Cass was Minister to France,
he became somewhat intimate with
the then King of the French,
Louis Phillippe. One evening
when thoy were alone the General
requested permission to ask a
question.
“ Ask what you pleas,” the
Kin" replied
Tncn,” queried the Minister,
“ can your majesty tell me any
thing of tho. Man in the Iron
Mask ?”
“ Ah,” replide Louis somewhat
amazed, “ yes, and I will tell you
all I know about it. When I re
turned from America, immediate
ly u|Min seeing my cousin, Count
d'Artais, I, evincing this same
curiosity, asked him wheather ho
could tell me anything about the
mystery. “ Only this,’ replide
tho count: “ Once, in rambling
through the Tuilcrics, 1 found
myself in the apartments of the
Queen, Murie Antoinette. Par
ting the curtains which concealed
me from her eyes, I saw her on
her kuces before tho King. “In
mercy’s name," she said, “ Sire,
tell me! who was the man in the
Iron Mask V “I eannof tell you,”
answered Louis XVI., sternly.
“ I learn it from my predecessor,
and can tell it only to tny success

you knew who he was, you would

riosity which he has excited”

thought so, replied the Carolinian,
and raising his hat showed a large
scar on his forehead, saying,
‘Theres your sabre mark, my
boy ; come ud and take a drink
The chivalric Carolinian must
have a most remarkable memory
of persons, nlid would seem to bo
fond of exhibitin'? bis scars.
A distinguished cx-officer to the
army and a graduate of West Point,
in speaking of General Sherman’s book,
says tbat if lie was now in the array
he would prefer charges against Gen
eral Sherinan of conduct unbecoming
an officer and a gentleman, and that
the contents of his book would be
sufficient to convict him before any
court-martial..
‘ Yea, you may come again next
Sunday evening, Horace dear, but”—
and she hesitated. “Wlmt is itdir-
ling ? Have I given you paiu?” he asked
ns she still remained silenf. “You

ded, “ but next time please don’t wear
one of those collars with the points
turned outward ; thev scratch so.”

Fatalism of Napoleon.—
There is a story, told by Count
Scgur, of the Emperor’s belief in
his destiny. Cardinal Fcsch had
remonstrated with him on tho
recklessness with which he was
attacking—in the language of this
vcncrablo ecclesiastic—men, tho
elements, religions, earth and
heaven together. lie dreaded to
sec him tall. Napoleon vouch
safed no other reply than to take
him hy the hand and lead him to
the window, which he opened.
Do you sec that star on high ?
nsked the Emperor of tho Cardi
nal. * No sire.’ Look well.
Sire, I do not see it. Well, then,
I see it, cried Napoleon. Tho
Cardinal made no unswer; ho
sjcmcd to bo dealing with an am
bition that already measured the
skies. Ho might have called to
mind the cnipationt exclamation
of Napoleon to a courtier who was
flattering him: Famous, am I?
What have I done compared to
Christ? At St. Helena, chasten
ed and sobered by affliction, ho
spoke in u different strain: Do
not tell me Christ was n man. I
know men, aud lie was not
one.

No Mistake.— Some time siaoe,
while a citizen of Augusta was travel

The question is almost daily ast /.
“ What is tho causo of tho uni!!’

the patient recovers his health. Th,,

Never beforo in the history of the worij I

boar Bitters in healing the sick 0 (
every diseaso man is heir to. They are
a gentle Purgative as well at a Tonic
relieving Congestion or Inflammation of
the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious
Diseases.
The properties of Dr. Walk-
er’s Vixeoar Bitters are Aperient, Dia
phoretic, Carminative, Nutritions, Lata-
tive. Diuretic. Sednt ivu, Counter-Irritant,
Sudorific, At’-- - ", and Anti-Bilious.
Grateful Thousands proclaim
Vinegar Bitters the most wonder
ful Invigorant that ever sustained
the sinking system.
No Person can take these Bit
ters according to directions, and re
main long unwell, provided their
bones are not destroyed by mineral
poison or other means, and vital or
gans wasted beyond repair.

out our entiro country during tho
Summer and Autumn, and remarka
bly so during seasons of unusual
heat aud dryucss, aro invariably ac
companied by extensivo derange
ments of tho stomach and liver, and
other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a
powerful inlluenco upon theso vari
ous organs, is essentially necessary.
There is no cathartic for tho purpose
equal to Dr. J. Walker s Vinegar
Bitters, as they will Bpccdiiy remove
the dark-colored viscid matter with which
the bowels aro loaded, at tho same time
stimulating the secretions of tho liver,
and generally restoring tho healthy func
tions of the digestive organs.
Fortify tho body against dis
ease by purifying all its fluids with
Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can
take hold of a system thus fore-armed.
