4 military Drill tu Georgia, Fifty
Yearn Ago,
“All Captain Clodpole’s company
parade here! Come gentlemen, pa-
lade here 1" says he. "All that hasn’t
„ 0 t guns, fall into the lower eend.—
Look to the right and dress!”
As every man was anxious to see
the rest stood, those on the
wings pressed forward for tho pur
pose, till the whole line assumed near
ly the form of a orescent.
“Why look at ’em,” says the cap
tain; “why, gentlemen, you arc crook
ing in at both eends, so that yon will
get on to me by and by! Come, gen
tlemen, dress, dress!’’
This was accordingly done, but, im
pelled by the same motives as before,
they soon resumed their former fig
ure, and were so permitted to remain.
“Now, gentlemen,” says the cap
tain, “I am going to carry you
through the revolutions of the manu
al exercise, and I want you, gentle
men, if you please, to pay particular
attention to the word of command,
just exactly as I give it out to yon. I
hope you will have a little patience,
omtlemen, if yon please; and if I
should be agoing wrong, I will be
much obliged to any of you, gentle
men, to put me right again, for I
mean all for the befit, and I hope you
will excuse me, if you please.
“Poise foolk! Cock foolk! Very
haudsomely done.
- ’Tention the whole! Pleuse to
observe, gentlemen, that at the word
lire’ yon must fire—that is, if any of
vour guns are loaded, yon must not
shoot iu yearnest, but only make pre-
(Hii.se like; and you, gentlemen, fel
low-soldiers, who’s armed with noth-
mg but sticks, riding-switches and
cornstalks, need not go through the
firings.
“Hundle cartridge! Pretty well,
considering you done it wrong end
foremost, as if you took the cartridge
ont of your mouth aud bit off the
twist with the cartridge-bor.
“Order foolk ? Haudsomely done,
gentlemen I Very haudsomely done 1
Aud all together, too, except that one-
bnlf ol yon were a loetlo too
soon und the other half a loetlo too
late.
“Charge bayouot!”
“That can’t be, captain. Pray look
again, for how can wo charge bayonet
without our gnus V”
“ ’Tention the whole 1 To tho left
—left, no right—that im, tho left—I
mean the right—left wheel, march V”
In this he was strictly obeyed, some
wheeling to tho left, some to the right,
and some both ways.
“Stop—halt! Let us try that again;
1 could not just then tell my right
baud from my left. You must excuse
if you please. Experience makes
perfect, as the saying is. Long as I
have served, I find something new to
learn every day.”
Near Stellaville, Ge., a leaden med
al was found that is quite a curiosity
i! its way. On the obverse side ap-
l>ears the figure of a six-masted
steamer, full-rigged, over which is the
inscription “The Grciit Britain,” and
below the ship is the dimensions
number of state-rooms, etc. On the,
reverse side appear two medallion
heads, Queen Victoria and Prince Al
bert. This medal commemorates, the
launching of the Great Britain at
Bristol, England, on Jnly 19f 1843,
and denotes au important era in ship
building, from the fact that she was
built of iron and fitted with the new
ly-invented scrow propeller.
Tiie quickest time ou record in a
divorce suit was made recently at
Fori Wayne. A wealthy farmer
named J. V. Gilbert drove to town
' l nn bis wife, aud she handed in an
appii.-.itiou on the ground of cruelty.

granted.
‘-riid now," shouts an excited ex-
'■’■ange, “where shall we look for in
dependence ?” Ob, friend and brotli-
; r searching und long-suffering fel-
tow-sufferer, look in the kitchen, look

New Life
is given by using Brown’s
Iron Bitters. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warms the system; in the
Spring it enriches the blood
and conquers disease; in the
Summer it gives tone to the
nerves and digestive organs;
in the Fall it enables the
system to stand the shock
of sudden changes.
In no way can disease be
so surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per
fect condition. Brown's
Iron Bitters ensures per
fect health through the
changing seasons.it disarms
the danger from impure
water and miasmatic air,
and it prevents Consump
tion, Kidney and Liver Dis
ease, &c.
