A man who has had some evperience at a boarding house, was more than likely ‘the author of the following: “How are you buatter, how do you feel to-night?” “Oh, lam just as strong as possible. ‘How are you Mister Coffee 2” “Me! Well. to speak the truth I feel very weak. I don’t feel settled, and the grounds upon whieh I am admitted into society don’t suit meat all. How are you, Miss Milk?” “Ob, I feel very blue. I fell in the water this morning and came near being drowned but don’t chalk that np against me, and if you see a cow anywhere around I'd lactometer.” Then the steak yelled out, “bully,” and the wmutton said go-at while you're young, while the boiled eggs fairly cackled in derision. ————— We reproduce the following as a | warping to Frank Hostetter, census enumerator for Walkerton: “Shortly after dinner Morgan Lewis, appeared at Supervisor Wright's office loo.ing like a man who had Dby hard running escaped a band of vigilantes intent on hanging somebody. He informed Mr. Wright that he had, as in duty bound, presented himself to the mistress of a Sixth Ward dwelling, and had asked the peliminary questions. Arising, the lady, whose bumps of aggressive- ‘ ness and determination were large and solid, requested him in a boiler vavd whisper to get out of the house. Thereupon he replied that he was an oflicer of the United States Government, and that she was compelled by law to answer the questions. In the gentle, cooing tones of a stamping mill pulverizer working ona ton of quartz she told him that the United States Government had better mind its own business, and furthermore, she did not give a fiddler’s cuss word for it, Seizing a revolver she prepared for action, nd\fising Lewis to get out before she made u seive out of him. Delieving that a live citizen was worth 20,000 times as much as the riddled body of a dead enumerator, he, to use an old Greek word, ‘sloped.’” DR OISV Statlstics of (he Tivii War, The official records of the -ecivil war show the number of volunteers called into the field by President Lincoln to have been 2,800,000 mcn ; besides these there were 150,000 regnlar:, u=nd 120,000 in the naval service. We, therefore, raised over three million of men to fight the seceded states. There were also a balsa million of southernersin the federal service, and two hundred thousand negroes, nearly all emancipated slaves. The total number of troops raised by the confederate or seceding states, according to the arclhives now deposited at Washington, was about 625,000. Os these there remained in the field at the date of Lee’s surrender in 1865, 139,788 * men of all arms, and 97,128 were lying in the northern prisons. ‘There were 26,746 who died while prisoners of war, about 60.000 were killed in battle, and 235,000 died of wounds or disease. “Let us hope that the American people will never need to pass through such another terrible ordeal of loss and suffering,” the '' ny Times says. In that hope all | .uiiotic people join. Yet the result of that gizantic struggle was worth all it cost. No greater calamity could have befallen this country than the success of the rebellion.—Sonth Bend Times. “Yet the result of that gigantic struggle was worth all it cost. No greater calamity counld have befallen this country than the success of the rebellion.” The latter sentence, from the pen of J. B. Stoll. we believe to be his real feeling in the matter, having read his writings for more than tweuty-two vears | and never having seen a word, phrase or | sentence indicating anything to the contrary in all that time. LS ST B AR IR R Raising The Wind. “Breddern,” said the old colored pastor of a church in Georgia, “de chu’ch am lide a ship an’ de pa’son, which am yo’ 'umble se’vant, am like de sails dat propels de ship, an’ de eongregashun am like de sailors on board de ship. Now, breddern, we'n yo’ have de ship. ready, an’ de sailors all in dere places, and de sails all up, what does yo’ need fer to make de sails {fill out an’ scoot de ship right along into de hebberly ha’bor? Huh?” “Wind,” said- old Deacon Topknot, in a low, sweet tone. “K'rect; jesso,” shouted the pastor. “RBrudder Topknot will please circulate wid his high hat an’ raise de wind.”
