Saving His Pipe.

The soldiers of a New York regiment, who were advancing on a concealed enemy, were very much amused to see a young Irishman continually dodging behind his compan-. ions at the sound of every volley that was fired against them, as if to avoidthe bullets that were sometimes, landing in dangerous proximity, when one of his Scotch companionssaid: “Stand Torrid, my laddie, stand torrid. If there’s a shot for ye, it'll find ye out, no matter whaur ye stand." “Be the powwss," replied Pat, “I don't care a hang whither it finds me out or not. If It doesn’t shmash me polpe. It’s the only wan in th’ rigiment.”
