Ills Continuous Journey. New York Sun. Last evening a man with red mud on his boots and weariness all over him entered a car of an incoming train at a station a dozen miles or so from New York. When the conductor came along the weary man drew from his vest poc ket the last half of an excursion ticket between New York and a station some half dozen miles beyond where he en tered the train, and on another branch of the road over which the train had not passed. The conductor quietly re turned the ticket and remarked, “ Not good,” at the same time pointing to a stipulation on the ticket, which said that in consideration of the reduced rate the company would only accept the ticket for “ one continuous journey.” The weary man looked inquiringly into the glare of the conductor's lan tern, and said, “ Waal ?” “ You stopped over at the last sta tion,” explained the conductor, “ and so you are not making ‘ one continuous journey.’ ” “ llow do you know I ain’t ?” weari ly asked the passenger. “ Because this train hasn’t been on the other branch at all,” said the con ductor, showing signs of impatience. “ What has this train to do with my continuous journey !” questioned the man, also getting impatient. As though propounding a question that would put a stop to further talk, the conductor asked: “ Well, how could you make a continuous journey on this train from a place this train doesn’t go at all ?” Adding that the rules of the company were peremptory, and must be enlorced. “ I ain’t said nothing about this train,” replied the weary man, evident ly much disgusted. “ I footed it all the way to the junction, after I found the last train had gone, and got here just in time to hang on to this train as it was starting ; and if that ain’t a continuous journey I’d like to know what is.” The hilarity of the other persons in the car seemed to annoy their weary fellow passenger, and he explained, as the conductor passed on, that he would like to know “ if the rules of the com pany prevented a man from walking over their d —d old road on an excur sion ticket.” Nevs Letter : A few da3’S ago a tramp who was sparring his devious way along, near Reno, conceived a bril liant idea for raising the wind. lie knew that the Wells Fargo stage would pass along that road in about half an hour, so he took off his coat, tore his shirt and pockets, rolled himself in the dust, and finally tied himself, with much difficulty, to a tree. His inten tion was to tell the stage passengers that he had been foully dealt with by highwaymen, and have a subscription to repair his losses taken up on the spot. The stage, however, took a short cut by anew road that day, and didn't go by at all. After waiting until dusk, the tramp tried to take off his bonds, but, before he got the first knot loose, a grizzly came down out of the moun tain and picknicked off the greater part of his left leg. Anderson Intelligencer, 17 th : Avery sad accident occurred on last Friday morning at the gin house of Mr. B. F. Hammond, about four miles east of this place, resulting in the death of a little son about nine years old of Mr. Lewis Smith, who had carried a load of cot ton to the gin, taking his little boy with him. It was the child’s first visit to a gin house, and, as might have been ex pected, the most attractive feature about the place to him was the horses and machinery underneath the gin. He had been there about half an hour when he got upon the shaft under the cog-wheel, and while riding around was caught by the neck between an arm of the cog-wheel and a gallows which sup ported the band-wheel. The space through which his neck was forced was about two inches. He lived until next morning, when he died, medical aid failing to prolong his life. A family of Turks, consisting of a father, mother, three sons, and a daugh ter, have settled in Knoxville, having fled from the Forte's dominion because oppressed by Turkish tyranny. One of the sons is a physician, one a tailor, and one a shoemaker. The father de sired, he said, to see his children pro tected and enjoying the free air of lib erty. They asked no alms of any one. The physician desired to be employed by residents of the Tennessee town, or by the government.

Sent. 11th 1 A VISION OF TIIE LONG AGO. For The Hartwell Sun. t’he bright visions of tho past still haunt my dreams, though the sunshine of hope that once beamed upon my pathway is extinguished, and the bright anticipations of future happiness with Her l lore have faded : yet the delight fid vision • that once enveloped me in a dr.'amy heaven visit me again, and l wan ler through dreamland joyous and happy. Like an angel of light she meets me when Morpheus embraces and soothes ray weary spirit with his gentle influence. I have battled hard to overcome the emotions of my heart, and have thought that I had succeeded, but, alas! when lain aroused from one of those happy dreams, my heart strug gles hard with its fetters and longs to twine its deepest, tendercst affectiou.s around one that cannot, will not re spond to its wooings—without one rny of hope to cheer it on, it bows at a shrine that will not accept its devotion. The only reward it ever receives is the affection she gives when sleep shuts out the sad realities of the day, for stilt she hires me in my and renvoi. I do not entertain the faintest hope that she will ever be mine in this world ; but per haps 1 eyond the weary confines of earth where sad disappointments cease and we fully realize our brightest hopes, then perchance 1 may call her mine. Perhaps she will recognize the humble spirit, who gave to her its best and brightest thoughts; the spirit that paid at her shrine its most devout homage. Perhaps when wo quit the shores of time she will permit mo to spread my pinions to the celestial breezes that play around the azure vault of Heaven and escort her lovely spirit to its na tive paradise amid tho cerulean fields of chaos. [We would remind our cor respondent that it will be necessary for him to cut a couple of pigeon wings before lie can do that.— Eds.] Then when it reaches the pearly portals that are ever opened to admit the redeemed of earth to their eternal home of hap piness, may 1 be permitted to stand upon one of the glittering domes of the New Jerusalem and watch her as she wings her way through the golden streets and sapphire plains that lead to tiie Great White Throne of ilimbefore whom there is none else, and may I listen, too, to the melting strains of i divine melody that shall float from her harp as she sounds a pean of praise to God and the Lamb. There I could sit through the endless ages of eternity and feast my eyes upon her angelic beauty. There I -could unwearied stay and drink in the sweet strains of music as it pushed from her soul in songs. As she rivalled the angelic hosts in love and adoration to the immortal King of Heaven iny soul would expand with de votion to her who lias ruled it so long, and were it permitted to utter one note of praise I fear it would be to her and not to Him that made it. May Heaven forgive my idolatry. Too long have I worshipped the creature instead of tho Creator. I have yielded to the emo tions of my heart till even rny soul is lost in admiration of its Queen. It lias been my chief delight to worship, to idolize the lovely being who inspired my heart with love in the long ago. Anymvh. LaGrunye Reporter: One night when the Congressional Convention was in session in Newnan, some of “the hoys” got a brass hand and serenaded their “distinguished fellow-citizens’’ who made up the hulk of the delegates pres ent. Among the others serenaded, was (.'apt. llenry Persons, who responded in a speech which would not have done dis credit to Mark Twain. He put his head out of the window, and, as we are in formed, spoke in substance as follows: “ Fellow-citizens, I thank you cordially for this serenade. lam proud to be serenaded by a brass hand. If there is anything in the world I would like to play on it is a brass band, and I have felt so from my youth. I am from the pine woods of Talbot county, where we never have any brass band, and we never hear any, unless we go away from home to hear it. Caesar had his Brutus, and Charles I. his Cromwell; but pine knot district of Talbot county has never had its brass band. If you were to go down there and serenade me and my neighbors at home, with a brass baud, we’d think the gyascutus had come, and we’d take to the woods. I have but two ambitious in this life. One is to be a congressman, and the other is to be a brass band. And when I go to Wash ington, I am going to buy a large-size, double-back-action brass band, and I want every one of you to come and see me and you shall play on it. Fellow citizens, I bid you good night.”
