The two merchants.

When trado gre»v slack, atul notes fell due, tho merchants fuco grow long aud blue: his dreams wore troubled all tho night with sheriffs, bailiffs all in sight. At last his wife unto him saicl: "Rise up at once, put out of bed., and got your paper, ink and pen, and say ihesg words to all men "My goods I wish to sell to yoar and to your wives and daughters too my prices they shall be so low that eaoh will buy before they go." Ho did as his good wife advised, and in the paper advertised. Crowds came and bought of all ho had his notes were paid hisdreams .made glad, and he will tell you to this da}r, how well did printers' ink repay. „-Ho told us this, with knowing wink, ..• how ho was saved by printers'ink.

Tho other, in a placo as tight, conten.«d was the prees to slight, and did not Jet the people know, offwhat he had, or where logo. IliB drafts fell duo, and were no't.paid a levy on his goods were made the store was closed until the sale, and,for somo time he was in jail. A bankrupt now, without a cent, at leisure he can deep repent, that he was foolish and unwiso, and did not freely advertise.

•'A Swindle"

The Journal of the Telegraph tells .the story of an old ielographic blunder:

A merchant who was absent from his home received a telegram informing him of his wife's sale delivery of a little girl at tho same time a lettor from his partner advised him that a draft had been presented for 85,000, and the signaturo seemed rather doubtful. The merchant replied to both disputches, but misdirected them—

Tho astonishment of the wile may be imagined when she read "I know nothing about it it's a swindle." Tho partner received hearty congratulations upon his safe deliverance.

Tus unenviable position held by those soldiers who. train with tho Copperhead party, wad painruiiy illustr&v ted in the county convention of that execrablo organization, held at Gravy fordsvillc last week. General Manson was figuring largely in tho meeting, acting, indeed, as though ho supposed a soldier was at least as good as a Son of Libert}' but he was brought up standing by a resolution introduced' by a former occupant of a "Lincoln baslilo'" that no soldier ought to be nominated for any civil office by a Democratic convention.

This was to much for poor Manson. His long-suffering patience "gave way under this studied insult, and but for tho timely interference of somo mutual friends there would have been, if some miscellaneous knock downs,
