The Only Rebel.
Detroit F, ee Press.
In five weeks’ wandering over Vir
ginia I found but one rebel; she was
a woman living near Harrison's
L uuliug. It was a Hit day as I
followed the truck of McClellan's
retreat from Malvern Hill, and I
was both hungry and thirsty. Tho
woman being at the gate, I rodo tip
aud asked: Madame, can I got
dinner here?
She saw the ‘Y ink 1 in ma quicker
than sent, and insalntly replied:
The Y anlteea stole all I had to
eat?
I‘ll pay you well.
But I haven't got nothing to sell.
If you had same potatoes and
baceu aud
Yanks stolo them all! sho inter
rupt, and
But you can give me a drink af
water, can't you?
No. sir! The Yankees filled up
Ihe well and earned aW'V tho dip
per.
Is there a spring around here?
Used to be lots of ‘cm, but tho
Yrnks toted 'em ofl!
Below ns was the muddy James,
and the drought had lasted so long
that there was hardly enough water
fo float a catfish. Pointing to tho
historic stream , I asked:
Why didn'ttho Yankees steal tho
river, too?
She scratched ler head with a
sliver pulled oil' the fence, and nev
er uubont a ( ar.icle as she replied:
They anted to do it Granger -
wanli ,1 to the wust wav, aud whan
they diskiverod that it wouldn't load
up worth a cent they gallop and their
old gun boats up and down and
washed so many shirts in Turley
Bend that tlie deems has boon
ashamed to louk u cow in the f ice
ever since! May bo you can git a
drink down )Ur‘, but this ore
neighborhood won't stand by and
see you carry off any of tlie sand
bat-! Bo a leetle keerful how you
paw around!"
On * of tho grea’es! luxuries of rich
es istlmt they enable you to escape
so much good advice. The rich
am always udvi-i ig the poor, but
tho poor seldom venture to return
the compliment.
Timid Souls.
There ate hearts that ache for
love and K\tup"ihy that cannot ask
for either. Timid ami sensitive,
with all the r longings fur friendship
and fellowfe.lti]> of soul, they give a
single look or word of personal in
terest or attachment, where affection
ftrain] sympathy with them is not
'ready manifest. Even when their
hearts are full to bursting of kindly
feeling, they cannot give it such ex
pression in formal words as will
make it plain to tl 10 unsympathetic
ear:
For words, iko nature, linlf rovenl
A id halt uunccal the Soul within.
The wealth of alf.setion and the
and plh of tenderness in their warm
he trie can n ver be recognized ex
c |it through the insight of sympa
thy.
A lln: Caiti.k Kakm. — The ranches
of Castle King Powers, all making up
a river frontage of eighteen miles, ami
including a number of very produc
tive meadows, are situated on the
south side ot the Arkansas, and all
are under fence. Directly opposite
these, beginning at Fort I,yon and
reaching down the river twenty-six
miles, and extend ng back far enough
to im hide an expanse of 80,002 acres,
is.another pasture under fence, the ti
tles of which arc in the same name,
litre, then, are forty miles of water
front and 100,000 acres of pasture
under fence, all owned by one man.
The fencing on these ranches will
sum up over one hundred miles.

Alt, dearest, siglidd the young

things is nearest my hear'.? Really

Americas Recorder: The ravages of
the tlcssisn fly are unprecedented in this
section, and were it not for good stands
and growth of grain serious damage
wight he nnprehended. Many farmers
are at a loss to know why the outer
blades of gram have a yellow soil blasted
appearance, some attributing it to rust;
but I tie true cause is the depredations ot
the fly. No great dang-r, however cin
come to tlj,e general yield of the crop Irani
this source as there is plenty of grain
sown for the fly and the demand of the
country too.

What I was gwiuo to remark,
said Brother Gardener, as the Sack
end of Paradise Hall grow quiet,
was lo tay to you dat do pusson
who expects to injoy dis life must
make up his mind to strike de
world on de gineral average. He
who neglects to do so will meet wid
daily sorrows and disappointments.
Don't expect dat de man who hap
pens to agree wid you on do weath
er am sartin to agree wid you in
politicks. It does foller dt de
man who agrees wid you on poli
ticks will feel bound to accept your
kiud of religion. De fack dat you
lend a n.ybor your shovel doan'
bind him to lend you his wheelbar
rer. He who looks for honesty
wlrar'he finds gr y ha'rs will be
as sadly disappointed as he who
argues dat an old coat am de sign
of a thief or a b jggar. Put faith in
.niman nature, tind yet bo cber
ready to doubt.
I expect to meet about so many
mean men in de course of a y’ar.
I expect de summer will be hot an’
de winter cold.
I expect to have chilblains in
comber an’ shakes of de ager in April.
I expect data sartin per cent, of
this world’s populashun will lie to
me, steal my cabbages, frow stones at
my dog an hit me wi 1 a brickbat as
I go home from de lodge.
On de odder hand on me who will
loud me money, go on my bond
speak well of mo an' sot up td*
n glit to protect me.
Nomaii am perfeck. lie may
strike you at fust sight as worry
good or worry Lia 1, but do tu‘ du
ctile until you average him. lie
may beat a street kvur company

lie may crawl under de canvass to
see a circus, an' yit pay his pew

Aocogt no man fur his fine talk—
reject no man fur his old clothes;
