If I hadn't lost my umbreller in the cab, I must have done him a injury with it! Oh the bragian little traitor! right among the ladies, Mrs. Harris; looking his wickedest and deceitfullest of eyes while he wp.s a talking to 'em ; laughing At his own jokes as loud as you please/holding his hat in one hand to cool hissef, and tossing back his iron-grav mop of a head'of hair with the other, as if it was so much shavings—there, Mrs. Harris, I see him, getting encouragement from the pretty clelooded creeturs, which never know'd that sweet saint, Mrs. C., as I did, and being treated with as much confidence as if he'd never wiolated none of the domestic ties, and never showed up nothing! Oh the aggrawation of that Dougladge' Mrs. Harris, if I hadn't apologiged to Mr. Wilson, and put a little bottle to my lips which was in my pocket for the journey, and which is very rare indeed 1 have about me, I could not have abared the sight of him—there, Mrs. Harris ! I could not!—I must have tore him, or have give way and fainted. "While the bell was a ringing, and the luggage of the hammertoors in great confngion—all a litter'ry indeed—was handled uj§ Mr. Wilson demeens liisself politer than ever. "That," he says, " Mrs. Gamp,:' a pinting to a officerlooking gentleman, that a lady with a little basket was taking care "on, " is another of our party.

"But who," says I, when the bell had left off, and the train had begun to move, " wh», Mr. Wilson, is the wild gent in the perspiration,that's b-een a tearing up and down all this time with a great box of papers under his arm., a talking to everybody very indistinc't, and exciting of himself dreadful ?"

"Come," his brother would say sometimes, when the father had set the boys a task and had gone from home, "come, Hod, let's go a-fishing." "No," Horace would reply, in his whining voice, "let's do our stint first." "He was always in school, though," says his brother, "and as we hoed down the rows or chopped at the wood-pile he was perpetually talking about his lessons, asking questions, and narrating what he read." When he fished, he fished for fish, not for sport. He could never be induced to sheet anything. When he did accompany a shooting party he would never carry or discharge a gun, and when the game was found he would lie down and stop his ears till the murder had been done.

March 9, 1871-ly A correspondent of the Atlanta Constitutionalist writing from San Antonio, T«xas, gives this account of the place on Sunday. This is Sunday, and I'll try and tell you -what I've seen to day. In the morning I passed untold numbers of barrooms, and in all of them people,and the best citizens, too, playing billiards or cards, of course for drinks, and "for the crowd really, if you won't drink and play billiards on Sunday you are not respectable. There are more bar-rooms in San Antonio than any place out of Texas to its size in the United States, As I sit in my room now at ten o'clock at night, I hear the band playing at the circus, and not very far is a panorama on exhibition. people as a pr piTTSTON DYE HflUSl WYOMING FIRE INSURANCE CO.

"No," Horace would reply, in his whining voice, "let's do our stint first." "He was always in school, though," says his brother, "and as we hoed down the rows or chopped at the wood-pile he was perpetually talking about his lessons, asking questions, and narrating what he read." When he fished, he fished for fish, not for sport. He could never be induced to sheet anything. When he did accompany a shooting party he would never carry or discharge a gun, and when the game was found he would lie down and stop his ears till the murder had been done.

But his mother called him off, and the pear-tree still staads. Another story is that he went to one of his mother's closets, and taking as many of her dresses as he could grasp in his arms, ran away with them into the woods, hid them behind a rock, and then came back to the house forrmore.

In their gentlest form at sea they are terrific objects to mariners on account of the possibility of having a vessel struck by them in their swift and furions march over tlie sea. Pittston. March 9, 1871-ly A correspondent of the Atlanta Constitutionalist writing from San Antonio, T«xas, gives this account of the place on Sunday. This is Sunday, and I'll try and tell you -what I've seen to day. In the morning I passed untold numbers of barrooms, and in all of them people,and the best citizens, too, playing billiards or cards, of course for drinks, and "for the crowd really, if you won't drink and play billiards on Sunday you are not respectable. There are more bar-rooms in San Antonio than any place out of Texas to its size in the United States, As I sit in my room now at ten o'clock at night, I hear the band playing at the circus, and not very far is a panorama on exhibition. people as a pr piTTSTON DYE HflUSl WYOMING FIRE INSURANCE CO.

Two opposing currents of wind meeting, the water is whirled up into the shape of an immense tube, elongating as it is rapidly .driven along with more than the speed of a locomotive over a rail track till the upper end spreads out widely in the clouds, resembling the conical shape of a tunnel. The apparent column of water is really a thin sheet with nothing in the centre but air, although of many feet in diameter. Such rapid gyration on its axis while running at the rate of many miles a minute finally twists it in two about the middle, when down falls a vast body of water that would crush a seventy-four instantly, were it to strike the deck.
