An apt quotation frequently has ti force of an original idea, and a speak< gifted with memory and tact in this wa often outshiines a man of originality an talent. But a garbled or misapplied a tation is like an ov'er charged musket, an does more damage to thme owner than tU enemy. A lawyer practicising in one < our courts, was fanmous for the trencher of his recollection, and his fondness Ii quoting-an unhappy combination. One day, in commencing an argumeni lie thought he saw a chance of applyir the woll known lines of Shakespeare.

All these things are pleasant aftc a long voyage on the rail road. But wha still more agreeable about stage-coac travellin, is that we have a opportunity c Smakin the acquaintance ofour fellow pas sengers, and of conversin with 'em, :studyin their interestin traits of charac t ter, which, from the strikin contrast the J often present, never fail to amuse if the don't interest our minds. t When I was down South last fall, T ha r a pretty fair specimen of a stage ride fro SWarrenton to Milledgeville, in Georgia a The road wasn't the best in the world, an a didn't run through the most interest pui e of tie Stat, but we'd a good team, a goo stage, and a first rate driver, and the con pany jest about as good a one as could b i jumped up for sich a occasion. The was nine of us, besides the driver, and don't beli(ve ther ever was a crowd < . the same number that presented a greate variety of character. Thor was a ol :L gentleman in black, with big round spec I tacles and a gold headed cone, a dand f gambler, with more gold chains about hir than would hang him, a old ITardshe k preacher, as they call 'em out in Georgi e with the biggest -mouth and the ugliet . teetn I ever seed, a circus clown, whos breath smelled strong enuff of licker 1 upset the stage, a cross old maid, as ugl as a tar-bucket, a butiful young lady wit a pair of the prettyest bright eyes, a dro, er from Indiany, what was gwine t'o Ne Orleans to git a army contract for bee *t and myself. For a while nobody didn't have .muc to say. The young lady put her gree J veil over her face and leaned her hew r back in the corner; the old maid .sot u s strait, and looked as sharp as a steel trap a the old gentleman drummed his fingerso his cane, and looked out of the windet the circus man tried to look interestin; i r gambler went to sleep; the preacher lool j ed solemn, and the booster stuck his he j out of the winder to look at the cattl I what we passed evry now and then. 0 "ris aint no great stock country," s r he to the old gentleman with the cane. a "No, "sir," ses the old gentlemat y 'Thgr's very little grazing here, and i rarnge is preitty much wore out." Then ther was nothing Red agin It sorne time. Biimeby the hosier openc agmn: "It's the d---.st place for simmoi trees and turkey-b~uzzards I ever did see! The old gentleman wvith the cane didn e say nothing, and the prgechirgv y hong groan. The young lady. smile it through her veil, and the old mai'd snai pod her eyes and looked sideways at ti speaker. "Dent make much beef here,TI reckon, ,ss the hoosier. "No," ses the old gentleman. ."Well, I don't see howv in the h e thyal manae to git along in a countis r whr tey in tno ranges, and they dori make no beef.
