Homo flveyonr* ago I *aa ll*dtern ill A marching regiment, nml quartered in n large garrison towifin England.

In mUittatf to thin wo had oc . . joimlly to munnt guard* nwi to jwha • ■ nty-four hour* in a Hurt of half impris onment. It in one of the regulation* of tlm acr- Tiee that when officers or tti n arc on guard m-V should always In: in a Htate of roiuli- j liuiw to ‘‘fall in” on parade at a mofneirt’s : uot’ee. If you feel very sleepy afnl desire rest yon must take it while you arc but ■ ~ncd up to the throat anti strapped down t the heels. A lounge in an arm-c'inir or upon n sofa, is the extent of rest which an officer mi guard is supposed to indulge in. Among my brother subaltern* in gam i iit was our usual practice to infringe : m this strict letter of the law, nml when ; principal part of our duty had hewn ne .mpliahed, we used to indulge ourselves t livesting our limb* of their uruior, and .lugrefreshments between the sheets nf e 1 Hie munp-bed that wsui plucod ill an in -r guard room. 1 was part of the duties of an officer on '■ '.l to visit ull the sentries during the t. the time for visiting them being i. ’ly mi hour or so alter tile field ofllcer , ii. . i.iitcd the guard, who was on duty ii oho day, and who came once by! ,biv nd oneu by night to see guard and io ■ i that ail was as it ahotilil bo. There not exact limit to the number of time* lb the Held officer might visit tlnguard*, i ■ ,i was the usual tluug, and it had 1 .lie almost a cuatom, for him to come duel, liy day and once by night, so that h!'’ ■ ■■ 11ns first the subaltern usually waited an h air orao, walked round the limits of ),l post, visited all of his sentries anil tin . turned into laid. j waa a hitter cohl morning in January that my time for guard came on. 1 inarcli i.d my men to the pout, relieved the old i'u ir<), and then, having gone tlnongli the regular duty anil dined, endeavored to pus the time until the field officer had visited me. The previous evening I had been ut a ball in town, and in eetiaequeuoe was Coy tiri.nl and sleepy, and looked with considerable longing to the period when I could unrobe onu enjoy u good i U'Xi/.0. At length I heard the welcome challenge, "Who comes there?" which was an wared, “Guard roiiTida,” and “guard turn out I” was a signal which i willingly obeyed, for 1 knew Unit in an hour after wards I would he in the arms of the guard of sleep. .Slipping on my cloak nml rap, and grasping my aword I placed myself before lliu guard and received the field officer, who briefly asked me if everything waa correct, directed me to dismiss my guard, mid rode of without saying good night, a proceeding that l thought very formal. (living directions to the sergeant to call mo in an hour, for the purpose of visiting tlm sentries, l threw myself into my arm* chair nml tried to read a novel. The time passed very quickly, as l had a nap or two, nml the sergeant soon appeared with n lantern to conduct me round tlm sen tries. it wna a tcrrililo night, the wind Mow in" hard, while llio snow nml sleet were driving along before it, Thu sentries were very much scattered, and I lind to walk nearly two miles to visit them all. Ii w'oomplished my task, however, and re- | turned to the guardsroom, where 1 treated | myself to a stilt glass of grog, nnd throw- i mg oil my regimen tala. I jumped into bed, feeling tlmt I deserved the luxury. In a few moments 1 was fast asleep, not even dreaming of my fuir partners of the half. Suddenly 1 became conscious of n great noise, which sounded like a drum being beaten. >U first 1 did not realize my position, and could not remember where I was, hut at la t it Hashed across me that 1 was on guard and that something was the matter. ,t;o ping out of bed, 1 called to know who wa there. The sergeant answeridin a groat harry, s . mg, ‘“Hir, the fluid officer of the day 1> coming, and the guard is turning out. ' I l ushed for my boots, pulled them on over my bare feet; tbvnstmy swordarmn| :uto my large regimental cloak, which 11 .'led over me; jammed my forage eap on I ■nv bead and grasping my sword, looked to the outwapd ybkcrvci as though "lit for parade.” 1 was just in time to receive tlio field officer, who again asked' W my guard was correct. I answered rather ia- u tone of sui'i'iiso: ‘Yes, sir, all correct.” 1 .■ ailil not imagine why my guard should be visited twice, as such a proceed jug w is unusual, and perhaps my tone inn. ,1 to imply. that l was surprised. Yt.i, her it was that, ov whether a trencher < n , gust of wind removed the folds of my cloak and exhibited the slightest bit. of the i'i o'my night-shirt, I know not, hut I i lie’ . officer, when he hud received my a' i'. turned hia liorso’s head iuauop >oMtc "reetion saving: ■ .sir, I want you to accompany me j around "in sentries,'’ Kadi > told me that he wanted me to H'vum; nv him to the regions below 1 ecu!'! net have been more horror-struck,for nln dvf bad foand change* of tempera- 1 turn It wean a warm bed in a warm room, and the outside air- mid to walk two miles ou a wiudy, frosty night, with no raiment 1 sides lauds, liight-sliirt and clonk, was a ad v suffering for one’s country nnd no i ’s'. le. 1 dared not show th slightest b ' "ion, however, for fear the state of i s ’ ire might be suspected, though 1 v ■' have given a week's pny to have i t for only five minutes. A non v "i issioned officer was ready with a 1 ' n and we started, ow our tour of in i non. I no field ofßoet naked several questions ihected with the position and duties of ibe sentries, to which I gave answers as ■ Has the chattering of my teeth would l ennit me. The most nervous work, j i wevur, was passing the gas lamps, which; ’ plaeevl at lutcrvnla of one or two bund r yurils. The wiud *e Moping so! i h tliat it was with difficulty I could i 1 '.l my cloak around me. Every now i then a extra gust of wind would come i nml a ooruvr, nml fpiite defeat all the j "autioiis which I bad adopted to oncoun-! i the heavy gale. 1 managed to dodge in t * shade as mixdras possible and more t u om-e mu the risk of being kicked by t field officer's horse, as I slunk behind 1 n when the gas revealed too much. I bad a faint hope tlmt the field officer 1 i gUt think I lielonged to a Highland i pineiit, ami if he did observe the ocanti i ns of ruy attire might believe that the ; i t.would explain it. I struggled and skivered on. knowing tlmt till things must 1 ve an end, and that my ‘‘rmmdiv’ most i am tn an end before long. Hut Xfeared - oul 1 not get warm during the night We bad nearly completed our tour, and were witbiu u-a-t buuuixil of the guard room, when we passed tlie field ' officer's quarters. I fondly hoped that he j would not pass them, pint I waa mtlier ! surprised to see a blaze of light come from the windows, and to hear the sound of music. It was evident that there was u "hop” going on inside, and 1 already bo ' gall to feel even worse misfortune Was yot j to attend me. Mv premonitions were tme, for upon [ reaching the door, my persecutor in a ' cheerful tone said: “We have had a cofd tour, yoti must ; eonie in and have a glass of wiue, and j>er , liiiiis a waltz will warm you.” i hastily nnsweied. “I’m really much '■ obliged, but I should not like to leave my [ guafd.” “Nonsense, nonsense, man—the gnard i will he all right —you uniat come in." This “must” he said in quite a deter i mined tone. I felt desperate, sod again declared that 11 thought it was wrong to leave my j guard. “I’ll hike the responsibility, so come along,” aaying which lie grasped my arm and almost draggl’d me into the porch of his quarters. When we entered the house and were exposed to th light of the hall lampa, J fancied I saw a slight twinkle in the eyes of the officer, mm I began to wonder whether he really kftew of my predica ment, and wished to have Ilia joke. Ho gave no other intimation, however, that : i saw, but quickly took off hia cloak and ' said 1 bad better do tlus same. Seeing | me hesitated he aaiil: “Come, off with it." Further remonstrance I found would be ; useless, so tluit there wus no help for me ; but a full confession. Summoning my ! courage, anil fearing to hesitate, 1 blurted out: “Col., I've no trousers on,” “The deuce you haven’t! Well you'd better go and put them on, and then come here uh soon as possible anil have a glims of inn m drink” #9 I rushed out half determined not to return. 1 was fully awake How, and shiv ered like a half-drow neiijdog, but no sooner laid I dressed myself than the Col. chOip over to say that a quadrille was waiting i for me. I determined to put a bold face on the matter, and entered the drawing room where a party of about fifty had assembled, ft was evident by the 11110111 of the young ladies, the grins of the men ami the sub- j dneil smilea of the dowagers, that my story was know’ll. The Col. had told it ns a good joke to the Major lie laid wbispertd it to hia w ife, t she hod breathed into the ear of two of her friends, and in about ten minutes ] every person in the room knew a young subaltern had very unwilling gono his rounds in a night shirt. As long as 1 stayed in tlmt garrison I was a standing joke. When the girls saw me they always looked away amt smih'd, nud it seemed as impossible Tor bio to obtain a serious answer from any of them as for n clown to preach a sermon. They even seemed to be afraid to dance w ith me, fearing, I afterward heard, to look at j my legs, lest I might bo deficient in some article of raiment. 1 soon exchanged and went into anoth er regiment, ana your* afterward heard Vuy own adventure related in u crowded drawing-room, nil of the details of the I story being true, except the mime of the subaltern my misfortune having been attributed to another unfortunate fellow. 1 never went to bed oil guard after Unit night. 4.S -e * THE EUCLYPTUS TREE. Ah Kxlmnitlvf Ai<i> nn 1 of tIJ Pmillur I v rujici 11. - Hens,ms roe ( In- lum tu_ lug I'opula i it y orilir Trie . 11l Hi'innrkulilt- Ali- OI',)lll>lt of iHu. lull II . Owing to the constant, inquiries from various portions of the United States in ; regard to tlw Eucalyptus Ulohuhin, or Australian gum-tree, wo urn induced to give a thorough description of it, enibrac ing facts not hitherto published. Through the courtesy of Son tag &. do., of lliia city, who have devoted iniieh time to (lie cultivation of too tree, we have ob tained most of the information here furnished. The Eucalyptus is extensively grown in, and is favorably known to nil residents of California, ’where probably not less than one million trees are planted. In this city, in front of hand some residences, you will find it with its magnificent drooping brunches, making an effective and graceful shade-tree. In Oakland the broad avenues are lined with them. Eucalyptus forests are planted in the country surrounding Oakland, slid in fact every country of tliia State w here the cold winter will permit it to live, the Eucalyptus will bo found growing. The wonderful properties of this tree have only within the last few years been discovered ami appreciated, ft is justly claimed that when the tree flourishes in low, marshy and feverish districts, all miasma will cease. It destroys the malarial element in any atmosphere where it grows, and is a great absorbent drain ing the subsoil almost ns thoroughly ns a regular system of piping. The Eucalyptus is an evergreen, and is found in its native country, Tesuiania, in boundless forests, both on the hillside and in the lowlands, under extremes of heat and cold, ranging from 130 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Whether it will endure a greater degree of cold, wc think, has as yet been undetermined. It- is, ! however, worthy a trial. Its remarkably ; rapid growth is a matter of much surprise --atturning, us it does, maximum height of about 300 feet, with a circumference of from 30 to 50 feet. For timber and fuel it is exceedingly useful, being hard and easily worked, and very serviceable for such purposes as the keels of vessels, bridges, cot., where strength and dura bility arc essential. It is t stimated that from if 1,000,000 to $5,000,000 m value of this timber is exported annually from Australia. The leaves of this tree are of a dark-bluish color, about ten inches long, an inch wide, thin and oddly twisted. They cxluilo. a sti'oug eauiphor-like odor, quite agreeable and pleasant, which with the largo absorption of water by the roots causes the beneficial inilucnce of the tree. It bears a small white flower, having no odor. In consequence of its antifebrile qualities, the English Government has planted it extensively in the East Indies and Africa, in fever districts, with the most satisfactory results. In France, Cab*, Spain, Mexico, nnd many other places where malarm, fever ague, and other pestilential diseases prevailed, the eucalypti have also been planted. The wonderful proprieties- of Ibis tree have been discussed by many scientific institutions ill Europe.' In the Academy ,of Hctences ia this city Sts medicinal and antimiasmstie qualities have received i considerable attention, fir, Vigtte Dtl puytren testified before that Academy of the virtues of the Eucalyptus, sad stated that lie and Dr. d’Oliveiu hod tested it ill the I reucli Hospital. In the garden sur rounding this hospital a largw nuroßeP pHf trees are planted lor sanitary piwposeas It has been found efficacious in the treat ment of nflectiona of the larynm and of mucous membruue in general. Expel i- j meats, carefully made, have proved that iu a medicinal preparation it cures eases !of intermittent fever, against which quinine alone proven powerless. It is also valuable as a disinfectant. In Algeria its cultivation wus undertak en on a large scale. Some 18,000 eu calypti were planted in an extremely peatilentia! and unhealthy section, where fever prevailed to u great extent every year. During tlie first year of their growth, at the time when the fever senaon uaed to set in, not a single ease of fever occurred, yet tlie trees were only nine feet high. Kince thou this place is re ported free from iW unwelcome visita tions. In tlie vicinity of Constantinople, another fever spot marshy and sickly, the whole ground was dried up by 14,000 of these trees. In Cuba, marsh diseases arc rapidly disappearing upon the ifitro ductiou of this tree. A railway station in the Department of the Var was so pes tilential that the officials could not remain there longer than a year, Forty of these trees were plunted, and the unhealthy condition of the place was changed. Two miles from Haywards, in this State, tlie Surveyor-General planted two groves of the Eucalyptus, one of about ninety acres ! and the other seventy acres, the whole I comprising about 150/Ml trees. They ■ are now only about five yenrs old, yet 1 many of the trees are forty to fifty feet I high, the whole making a most extensive mid beautiful forest; for fuel and timber purposes being worth thousands of dol j lata. -S. F. FJf nitty Bulletin. How She Wa Quieted. Friday evening a woman about 30 years old was arrested in the Western district j for disturbing the peace, and the event almost distracted her, although she hod j seen the inside of s cell before. Hhe be gan howling and weeping ns soon us she j was locked up, and llijuli, the janitor of j the Ninth Avenue Htation, felt his heart; getting tender. He offered her a harvest j apple, but she merely shipped long enough to see what it was, ntrd’ then Went on crying out: “I am dying, I know I am 1” He besought her to live for the sake of her husbunil, who was away on the lakes, lmt she said she would be cold in dentil before morning if not set at liberty. Ho showed her the almanac and tried to induce her to |m'lHbo it and settle her mind, hut she tried to pull his hair through the liars, and raised her voice until it could bo heard two blocks away. He began reading the almanac out loud, but. she drowned hia voice, and he hail to give up. Thou he went out and bought Home peppermint drops and handed to her, auying that it waa a burning shame to arrest n luily like her for merely hitting another woman ou the ear with a shovel. She was quiet for u few minutes and then broke out again, and the roof of the station seemed to be raising up. bijar | offered her a pound of gum drops, anew bonnet, a black silk dress, house and lot, and (550,000 in 1 Kinds if slio would only quit but she danced up and down and ; yelled, "Lcmme out or I shall di-ah !” He | locked all the doors and sat down on the ! flout steps to let her exhaust herself, but : after an hour and ten minutes, there be ing no cessation, be ran iu with an axe on hi* shoulder and threatened to cut her j head off if she didn't stop. "I won't! I t won’t! I won’t!” alio shouted, dancing up ; and down, and taking a fresh start. He drummed on the coal scuttle with the axe to drown her voice, but Hie voice drowned the scuttle. He put tlie hose on the penstock anil threatened to drown her, hut she shut her eyes and pitched her voice oil anew key’ The old man was in despair. The men upstairs I couldn’t, sleep, anil tlie people out doors i thought that a panther had been caged. As the officer rubbed bis bald bead and look ; ed around bis eye lighted on an old paper, | and his smile extended from ear to ear. i He curried it in, turned up tlie gas, and i shouted, “Have yon read the Heecher sounds I yet? “Head what 1” she exclaim ed, suddenly ceasing to scream. “The ! Hieoher-Tiltim matter," l.e continued, I “this ’ere thing what everybody is talking i about.” “No; where ia it?” she asked, and lie passed in the paper, telling her that if she would be good lie'd bunt up the rest of the statement in another paper; : and from that moment until daylight the | woman never uttered a word, except ouce when she asked if there worn t seven or eight more papers with statements in. - How They Waltz. A Put-in-Ttny correspondent of the Cin ! eiuimti Times furnishes the following i lively description of the style in which | girls from different Stab's and localities waltz, as shown by the hop* of that pleasant resort: People may say that a waltz is a waltz, but it is a mistake; as much as to say tlmt a dog is a dog, for there are dogs and dogs, and I here are waltzes and waltzes. With ! one person it ia the poetry of motion, with 1 another it is about as awkward a perform - ! Slice as putting yourself upon a level and going through the motion of running up I stairs would be. A Kentucky girl is a i natural waltzer, and she does it with a charming chic and abandon. An Ohio girl’s waltzing is easy, graceful and “melo dious.” If she happens to eonie from Cincinnati, and across the Rhine, she swings dreamily round and round in theend less "Dutch waltz.” If slio comes from Chi cago, she throws her hair back, jumps up and crack* her heels,together, aud carries ott' her astonished partner as though a simoon hud struck him, nud knocks over all intervening obstacles in her mad career j around the room. If she is from Indiana, : she creeps closely mid timidly up to her ; partner, us though she would like to gut into liis vest pocket, and melts away with i ecstaey us tho witching strains of the "Blue Danube” sweep through the hall. | If she is flour Missouri, she crooks her 1 laxly in the middle like a door hinge, takes her partner by tho shoulders aud makes liim miserable iu trying to hop around her without treading on her No. tt shoes. If she comes from Michigau, she astonishes her partner by now aud then working in a touch of the double shuffle, or a bit of pigion wing, with the wait7.step. Aud if shs comes from Arkansas, she throws both arms around his neck, rolls up her eyes as she floats away, and is heard to murmur:- "Oh, hug mo John.” - —— An Old Rat.—The following rat story comes from Massachusetts: After a j shower, a few duys since, a number of ruts were sesti to go down the roof of the j old Covve A Hathaway Hotel, West Brook t field, to the eaves trough to drink. A | party watching their movements counted ; twenty-one, and among them an old rat ' with five young onea, approach the spout, i1 he old mother holding a straw in her ; mouth, anil the five httle ones each hold ! iug tire straw, and beiisg hal iu this man ner to the edge and placed" hi a row. The old one took the first one, winding her tail around it. letting it down" to tlie water, aud then placing it to the right of the row of the rats. Then she took the one at the left, olid, lettiHg it down to drhik. placed it at the right again, and so' OB’with She whole; after which they all took hold of the straw, and tho mother, with the straw in her mouth, led tlie iu back to their hole. Love anij Luck. —Marrying for love is not always unlucky, or indiscreet, either. When Marshal liuzaine was in Mexico, and at the bight of hia fume, he fell in love with the beautiful and gentle, hut penniless Kenorita I’euay Puna, whose only possessions were her own eharmea and virtues, aud a historic hereditament that had descended from her grandfather, for mer President of the Republic. At the time of the marriage, the young lady was deemed to have made a great catch 1 in a husband so wealthy und famous. But in 1 the general chapter of the vicissitudes, time brihgs some changes, as it bus done in this cuhm. Misfortmfe Checkered the career of the whilom condescending lover, ami penury and degradation followed affluence and dignity. The affairs of the loving pair were at their lowest ebb; but just at this juncture—so the genius of romance fixed it, to give an orthodox j denouncement to this love story in actual 1 life—the aunt of Muilamc liuzaine dies 1 mill bequeaths to her untold wealth; und now the orewhile dejected wife of the! fallen Marshall may again lift her head among the proudest. Such ia life. Fatalism Im-istkatko.—A hordshi 11 Baptist minister, living somewhereon the j frontiers of Missouri wus iu the habit of , saying to his family und to his church: j Friends, yon need not take any nnnsnal : care obout your lives; the moment of your 1 death was writ before the foundation of; the world, ami yon can not niter it His wife observed when he left on Hat nrday to meet one of his frontier mission- 1 ary that ho dressed the flint of hia rifle wiwf*nuiisnsl care, put iu dry powder, fresh tow, and took every pain to make sure tlmt the gun wonld go off in case he came upon an Indian. It struck her one dav aa ahe saw him in ! the saddle, with hi* rifle on his shoulder, I Hint bis conduct contradicted hi* teachings | and she said to him, “My dear, why do | you take this rifle with yon ? If it was l writ before tlie foundation of tho world J that you were to be killed during this trip by an Indian, that rifle won’t prevent it; ; and if yon are killed of course the rifle is iimiccokaurv; so why take it with you at ull ?” Too Often True. Some" in on take too mneli money out of their buHincM to expend in household ex penses ami lavish pi-plnv, and speedily bring themselves to the verge of bank ruptcy, One eld gentleman, who had CiuiVnieneed life a* a poor boy had, by mastering Hie difficult steps to final suc cess, gained considerable wealth as a mer chant. When lie arrived at old age he retired to private life, to live in ease and comfort on his income, leaving a prosper ous business in the hands Of hi* son. In three years the young man was bankrupt, lie hod fallen in business nml wits compelled lo take a position as clerk in a stranger’s store. His father was asked why was it that, in a business in which he hml succeeded so well, hia son had failed. He gave this characteristic answer: “When I first commenced brsiuess my wife and I lived on porridge. As my bus iness increased we had bettor fi.<vt*; and, when I eould afford it, we hud chicken, lint, vim see, Johnny commenced with the chicken first!" A Suii’iuk Mam* S< If- Instruction seems to lx- on the increase, and the inn ' nia develops different forms of death dai ly. While frenzied with liquor, yesterday afternoon, a wealthy man, utlvuucid in years, shot himself in the head, after shooting liis wife and a neighbor. The morning’s record also gives a case of sui cide by chloroform; and two eases, each of self-destruction, by drowning nud by the bullet, lint the strangest tragedy of all waa the fate of a woman who threw herself under the wheels of a locomotive, in imitation of a gentleman who hml made hi* exit from the world in the same manner n few days ago. Two of the six victims were women, nml four of the crazed unfortunates were brought to de struction by a love tor stroug drink. Temporary insanity was no doubt the im pelling cause for the desire for death. No person in liis or her right mind will take the dread leap in the dark. Aud tlie excitement of our feverish modern life has much to do .vitll the recklessness that leaves so fearful n swath of death.— N. V. Commercial Atlrerliecr. CHOh'ESS/OSA I. CAi; US. \, F. HADDOCK.
