Select iP?c?m,, (ien. Sheridan'? experience with tl Vir ginia ( ftutleruan. J (Jon. Sheridan's, experience wilh a stiff oki Virginia gentleman] just before Gen. Lee surrendered ?it Appomattox C. H., is told in a recent book on the hist campaign ut* Gen. Lee, as follows : " The general dismounted here, at the fence of a stiff old gentleman who was sit .ting ou high pi?zz-i and scowling severely as we rode up. Ile was tho typical South erner of 50 years ;. his long gray hair fell over the collar of his coat behind his ears ; he was arrayed in the swallow tail of a by-gone mode, a bnfl" linen vest, cut low and nankeen pantaloons springing far over his feet, that were neatly encased in mo rocco slippers ; a bristling shin fri ll adorn ed hi5 bosom ; and from the embrasure of his well-like collar he shot defiant glances at us as we clattered up the walk to his house. Prince Edward Court House was-a stranger to war, and our in dignant friend was looking for the first time on the like of us, and certainly he did not seem to like our looks. [lo "bo wed in a dignified way to the General, who bobbed at him carelessly, and set down on the step, drey out his inevitable map, lighted a fresh cigar, and asked pur host if Ruy of Lee's troops had been seen about here t'l-d-iy. "Sir'he answered, "as I can truly say that ?'on? have been seen by me 1 will say so; but if I had .seen any I should feei it my duty to re fuse to reply to your question. 1 cannot give you any informa'.ion to the disad vantage of Gen. Lee." This little speech, clothed in unexceptionable diction, which no doubt had been awaiting us from the time we tied our horses at the gate, missed tire badly, lt. was very patriotic, and al! thar : bur the Genera! was m>r in a humor ID drop patriotism just thou, so he only gave a soft whistle, and returned to the attack quite unscathed. " How far is ir. to Buffalo river?" " Sir. I don't know.'1 "The devil \<>u don't. How long have you lived here V "All tm life." " Very weil, sir.it's time you did kr.; w. Captain ! put this gentleman in charge of a guaid, and, when we move, walk him down to Buffalo Uiver, and show ii to him." And so he was marched off, leaving us a savage glance tit parting; and that even ing trampea five miles away from home to look at a river which was as familiar to him as his own family. Heavy Shoes lor Ladies. Winier is upon us, and we desire to say a word or two to our lady -readers about clothing the feet. When the celebrated physician,' Aber nethy, died, report said that, besides a will of some interest to his heirs, in a pe cuniary point of view, there was found among his effects a scaled envelope, said to contain the secret of his success in the healing art, and also a rule of living, the following of which would ensure lon gevity. A large price was paid for thc sealed envelope, lt was found to contain only these words: "To insurecontinued health and a ripe old age, keep ti.e head cool, thc system open, and thc feet warm." Dry feet are warm feet, generally, if thc system is healthy. To keep the sys tem healthy the circulation must be good. Tho circulation is not good without exer cise, and exercise can only be really val uable when walking. Hiding in a carri age is no exercise at all : it is merely in haling the air. This is very well as far as it goes, but the lungs are not in full play without the ind'vidual is walking. Horseback exercise is very good, and is an improvement on carnage riding, but it is not the kind of health-creating play of the muscles nature demands, lt is ac tion-action of tho en.tire body-and walking only will procure it. Now the ladies of Europe, particularly those of England, understand this thin":. They walk miles per day, and if any of our pale beauties desire to know how the English ladies keep up thek* fine color, clo ir complexion, and superb busts, we tell them it is by out-door exercise : walking In the open air ; filling the lungs with puro oxygen by rapid movement on a sharp October day, when the sim shines brightly and the clear blue sky is above. This is the secret of the rich blood of the English wemen, and their almost univer sally fine looks and matronly beauty at fifty,-when at th3t age American women are pale, stdlow, and wrinkled. To enjoy a walk thick soles are needed. Stout, well-fitting calf-skin, high gaiters, neatly laced, will always "set off" a pret ty foot, find improve a homely one. To guard that sensitive portion of the human traine (for the sole of the feet is keenly sensitive to thc changes from heat to cold, or dryness to dampness.) the boot sole should be thick, and as well made as hu man ingenaity can do it. Then, even in moist weather, orin a rain storm, the foot can bc protected ; that insured, ail is well with the body. A Lover Still " No knger a lover !" exclaimed an aged patriarch. "Ah! heart. Though" silver hair fall over a brow all wrinkled, and a cheek all furrowed, yet I am a lov er still. I love the beauty of thc maid en's blush, the soft tint of flowers, the singing of the-birds, and above all the sil very ring in thc laugh of a child. I love the star-ike meadows where the butter cups grow, with almost the same enthusi asm as v/hen with my ringlets flying loose in tho wind and my cap in hand, years ago, I chased the painted butterfly. ! love yon aged dame. Look at her. lier face is eire worn, but it has ever held a smile for mc. Often have I shared the bitter cup of sorrow with her-and so shared, it seemed almost sweet. Years of sickn? have stolen the freshness of her life, but, like the faded rose, the per fume of her love is richer than when in the full bloom of youth and maturity. "Together we have placed buds in the pale, folded hands of tho dead, together wept over little graves. Through storms and through sunshine we have clung to gether; and now she sitsnherc with her cap quaintly frilled, the old styled ker chief crossed white and prim above the heart that has beat so loni: and truly for me, the di n, blue eye that shrinkingly fronts the glad day ; t he sunlight throw ing her a parting farewell, kisses her brow, and leaves upon its faint tiacerv wrinkles-angelic radiance. I seo, though no one else can, the bright, glad young face, that 'von me first, shine through" those withered features, and thc growing love of forty years thrills my heart till tho tears come. " Say not again ? can no longer bc a i lover. Though this forra be bowed, God ] has implanted eternal Jove within. Let i the ear bo deaf, the eye blind, tho hands I -.dsied, the limbs withered, the brain j clouded, yet the heart, the true heart, may j hold such wealth of love that all the pow. i cr of death and the victorious grave shall not be able to put out the quenchless _r__, OLD WOMEX.-As true as we live, old women arc especial favorites of ours. A tig for the young and thoughtless, when wo can share the society of the aged, and listen to the words of experience that fall, from their lips. What would the world bc if we were deprived of the company and kindness of old ladies! Look at the sick chamber. Who watches beside the weary couch with iO:i<t??jit care and soli citude? Who bathes the feverish brow and calms the agitated spirits? Who lingers the long night, without a moment to repose-the worn-out f?ame? Who but an old lady-one, perhaps, who is despis ed by the gay and ridiculed by the vain. When sorrow crushes the heart and death removes a beloved friend, who adminis ters the sweetest consolationA pious old lady-she, it may be, who was point ed at by the linger of pride and folly, when she passed the door or entered tho church. They who speak lightly of aged women, know not what, they do. How could we sparc them from our midst ? ?n thc ball room-the gay circle, and where pleasure's witching moments haste, we do not value their society, nor appre ciate their services ; but when paleness lingers on the cheek, when thc spirits grow dull, when thc head is heavy and the heart is sick, it is then-ay, it is then we beg of them to remain with us, and our souls gush out in love as they linger around our couches. Blessings on the heads of old women! We cannot spare them from our alllicled world. They arc ministering spirits to the sad and dejected-thc Instand thc dy ing.-Olive Branch. We saw Jake Jones nailing up a box containing articles which he intended send ing tty express. From the nature of the cmtents, we knew that, it was essential that the box should not be inverted on lb-; passage; so we ventured the sugges tion to JaJie tt) place thc much abused .This side. ur, etc.,' conspicuously on the cover. A few davs after wo saw .Jake. i Heard from your goods, Jake. Did they, get lhere safely ?' , ' Eveiy ono. broke ! Lost the Bul] lot ! Hang the Express Company!' 'Did you put on 'this side up,' as .we told you ?' . 4 Yes, 1 did; and fur fear they shouldn't see it on thc kiver, 1 put it on the bottom tew-confound 'em !' WHO'D PAY FOR YE ?-A Yorkshire /armer called at thc house of a lawyer to consult him professionally. Ms t' srjueer at home'?1' he inquired of the lawyer's lady, who opened the door to his summons. He was answered negatively. -Disap pointment shone iu his face ; but after a moment's consideration a thought reliev ed him. " Mebby yourself can gi' me the neces sary information, as well as t' squeer, seen as ye're his wife ?" The kind lady readily promised to do so, if, on learning thc nature of his diffi culty, she found it in her power ; and the other proceeded to state thc case as fol lows : " Spoaze ye woran old white mear, and I should borrow ye to go gwang to mill, with grist on yer back, and wc should get no farder than Sarir Hill, when all at once ye should back up, and rear up, and pilch up and kneel down backwards, and break vcr dcarncd old neck, who'd pay for ye ? Not I, dearn me if I would." The lady smilingly told him, as she closed the door, that as he had himself passed sentence on the case, advice would be entirely superfluous. JSgT"' Do you propose to put Ike into a store. Mrs. Partington ?" asked a friend, j " Yes," replied the oki lady, " but I'm : pestiferous to know which. Some tell -ne the wholesome trade is the best, but 1 believe the ringtail will be the most bene flcious to him." PKACTICAL PIETY/.-Religion that does not go with us in our daily vocations, Con trolling and guiding us, is of little value. We should not make it obtrusive or ill timed in any of its manifestations, but our hearts should be so thoroughly imbued with the spirit of Christ as to eause'eve ry action, in its own quiet way. to show forth the foundation principles of our life, and speak a stronger language lor the Master than that of direct words. It is in our worldly business, in our every-day life, that our religion is needed, if any where, both in its effect on ourselves and un those v.'th whom weare brought in contact; here temptations assail us, here our influence is greatest Then let us pray and labor that our every-day piety be equal to our public profession.-Congre gationalist. I A-good story is told of a rustic youth I and a buxom country girl, who sat facing j each other at a husking party. The youth, smitten with the charms of the beautiful maiden, only ventured a sly look, and now and then touching Patty's foot under the table. The girl, determined to make the youth express what he appeared so warmly to feel, bore with these advances a little while in silence, when she cried out, " Look here, if you luve me, why don't you say so; but don't dirty my stockings." A teacher in a Sunday school was ex aming a class of little boys from a Scrip ture catechism. The first question waa: :' Where did they stone him f" "Beyond the limits of the eily." The third ques tion : " Why did they take him beyond the limits of the city ?" was not iii the Look, and proved a poser to the whole class; it passed from head to foot without an answer being attempted. At length, a little fellow who had been scratching his head all thc while, looked up and said : ;: Well, 1 don't know, unless it was to get a fair flint: at him." * " What is thc reason that men never kiss each other, while thc ladies waste a world of kisses on the' feminine faces?" said a foolish gent lo a lively girl the oth er day. The young lady answered : " Because the men have something bet ter to kiss, and the women havn't." Ile saw it immediate! v. "Frank," said an affectionate mother the other day to a promising boy, " if you don't stop smoking and reading so much, you will get so after a while that you won't CAro anything at all about work." "Mother," replied the hopeful, leisure ly removing a very long cigar, and turn-? ing-nnother leaf, "1 have got so now." -? ? ? A roaming youth,'who claimed that he had made a vast deal of money in one part of the world and another, on being ?skcd what he had done with it, said he bad invested it in houses and lots. On further inquiry it turned out that he had laid it out in eating-houses and lots of rum. Second Supply This Season OF & III DRESS. GOODS, CLAKS, SHAW h.
