No Gold Lace For Him-
Among the Virginians who have
recently visited Washington, says the
Richmond (Va.) Times, there has been
no more striking figure and none on
whom more eyes were turned in ad
miring gasa than the stalwait form
and sunburned) swarthy countenance
jl General Thomas L. Rosser A new
ly appointed officer asked Rosser
where he was going to have bis uni
form made. “They will cost you a lot
of money,*' he said. “I have had six
suits made, and they cost me. 5700.”
“I will only need," responded Ros
ear, “a flannel shirt which I can buy
nere anywhere on the avenue; a * pair
of shoulder straps, and a string or
piece of braid around my hat to desig
nate that I am an officer."
“You will have to get a fine horse,
General," continued the inter’.ocutor.
“General Butler has had a S4OO black
stallion presented to him, and other
Generals have secured fine horses.”
“Well,” replied Rosser, “I have
some good stock down on my farm;
but from what I cau learn a horse will
not be the suitable thing in Cuba; I
think a mule will be beat, and it is my
expectation to ride a mule."
It may be that this Confederate vet
eran with his flaunel shirt and string
around hie bat, bestriding a mule, will
not be exactly in trim to court an
amorous looking lass or caper nimbly
in a lady’s chamber to the lascivious
pleasing of a lute, but for a Black
Douglas ready for the devil’s own
work In desperate encounter comtnend
us to this old Confederate soldier.
A Child Enjoys
The pleasant flavor, gentle action, and
soothing effect of Byrup of Figs, when in
need of a laxative, and if the father or
mother be costive or bilious, the most
gratifying results follow its use; so that it
is the best family remedy known and
every family should have a bottle.
A Picnic-
On Friday last, a crowd of young
people from the Midway neighborhood
and near Griffin gathered at Weems’
mill and spent the day very delight
fully in fishing, strolling and sitting
on the large rocks where the trees
threw their welcome shade upon them.
The dinner, one of the most enjoy
able features, was excellent, no ants
having found their way into the bas
kets. The ride home was especially
enjoyed by those who love fun. W.
