ryi THE CHZBOKXX BOSE. ' ' vtl; '
The legend of the Cherokee rose
is as pretty as the flower itself.
An . Indian chief ; of the Seminole
tribe was taken - prisoner ' by his
enemies, the Cherokees, and doom
ed to torture, but feu so ill that it
became necessary to wait for his
restoration to; health before com
mitting him to the fire. As he lay
prostrated by disease in the cabin
of the Cherokee warrior, the daugh
ter of the latter, a young, dark faced
maid, was Ids nurse. She fell in
love with the young chieftain, , and
wishing to save his life, urged mm
to escape; but he would not do so
unless she would ' flee with ; him.
She consented.. 'Yet before they
had gone far, impelled by soft re
gret at leaving home, 'she asked
permission 01 her lover to return
for the , purpose of bearing away
some memento of it J So, retracing
her footsteps, she ' broke a sprig
from the white rose which climbed
up the poles of her fathers tent,
and preserving it during her flight
through tne wilderness, planted it
by the door of ner new noma in
the land of the Seminoles. ' And
from that day this beautiful flower
has always been known between
capes of Florida and throughout
the Southern States by the name
of the Cherokee Rose. '
eOHOBSSKAI. HUMOR.
Mansfield T' Walworth, in bis

the followiner piece oi uongrestaon

be a suitable representative oi
country whose institutions were
founded in hostility to - Kings.
Judge Thatcher, in reply, proposed
the ktoose, wmcn be said was
most humble and republican bird
and would in other respects prove
advantageous, inasmuch as the goa
lings would be convenient to put
on the ten cent pieces The laugh
ter which followed was more than
the Southernor could bear. Con
struing his good humored irony
into an insult, he sent a challenge.
Thatcher returned it to the bearer,
observing that b e would not accept
"'What, will yon be branded as a
coward?'!, . ',7 ?"" V
"Yes, sir, if he pleases.' I always
was a coward, ana ne sxew it, or

lengto me." "r" V.-"'' ' ; t ""

There was always a splendid boy-,
ishness about Mr. Read. In life he
was the life and light of every circle
which his presence graced. His
sparkling puns , were the stock in
trade of the Cincinnati clubs, and
his witty repartees the , talk in
American literary and army circle.. :
i Once at the meeting of the Cin
cinnati Sketch Club it was custo
mary to give out practical texts
from Longfellow, Whittier, or Ten
nyson to be illustrated by tbe ar-:
tists. - On one occasion the lines
from Evangeline ?i- . . .'.
; " And every house an inn, where ;
each guest was welcomed - and :
feasted," fell to Mr. Read, r It was
such a queer passage that the art
iste Trankenstea, Theodore Jones, ,
and Kellogg all looked at Read as
much as to say, "Now yon have got
pazzlerl"- In a few -moments the
fiet jorUstfiinahed hk skeiefit . ;
i "What have you got, Read?!' they
asked. : -....-.r.- : - : '- ..
" 'And every house was an inn,
he repeated, and . then held up a
picture of Crestline, with two trains
arriving, while everybody was ring -
ing bells, whanging gongs, and
crying dinner, pihnsb, DINNER! I " H
While in New Orleans, Sheridan
invited Read to come and see him. '
For several days Phil, and Read
run the town, and then the Gen-j
eral got up a big dinner' to the
honor of the poet. At this dinner
were the wit, diooo, ana oeauty
of the Crescent City. Puns, repar
tee, and sauce anecdote held carni
vaL It was Wallack and Miss Jen-'
nings in the "morning call," each
struggling to say the best thing.
After a few courses, and JrhiL had :
toasted the historian of the "ride.""
Read leaned forward and took hold
of an empty decanter of sherry.'
"Now," said the poet holding
the decanter bottom upward, "this
is sherry done, but I propose to fill
sherry done! IJfhiL - bhendanj.
Then he handed the decanter to
the waiter.: ' V 1
Speaking of Kirby Smith's defeat
of Banks and capture of his sutler's
supplies and camp chests, Read
said Smith was luce I'haroahs
daughter. .
"Howl" asked Sheridan. :
"Why, because he found a little
profit in the rushes on the Banks!
. , Once Inrobasco, , and Jo. Jjong
worth, and Grosbeck, or some of
those rich Cincinnatians who have'
splendid art galleries, asked Read's
advice about baying Frankenstein's
Niagara, f ; - rr t . ,
"Why, yes," says . Read "if I had
the money I d goby it right off!" , "
: Once the poet was dining at the
writer's sister's in Cincinnati. The
handsome General Hooker was
there, with hid uniform all begrim
ed with smoke from ninety cannon,'
at Nashville, and on the same side;
was the homely Sherman, whom
Mark Twain said smiled once and
broke a saucersmiled again, and
smash went a plate and Mrs. Gen.1
Lander, ; whose gallant . Fred bad
given np a General's life at Rich
Mountain, h -,v ,;V- V,V' .V
The ride was the agony in Cin
cinnati then, so they asked Read to
read it Mrs. Lander said she had
never heard the; poet read itr V ; ;'
' "Now, do read it, Mr. Read do,
favor Mrs. Lander!" urged ray; eis
ter, handing the poet the book.
i "I wish I did favor Mrs. Lander!"
replied Read, as quietly as if he had
not paid Mrs. Lander the sweetest
of compliments.

;:'. BOWED CP SALT RIVER.' '
: Salt ' river, where it debouches into
the Ohio river, is pot more than fifty
or sixty yards in breadth, but : very
deep.'- It is never fordable, even in
the dryest seasons; and, being naviga
ble for fourteen miles above its mouth,
has not been bridged at this point.
We descended its steep, and difficult
banks, embarked our ; carriages' upon
a flat ferry boat;.' and, were conveyed
across. The view, looking 'up the
river, was very beautiful Tall elms
and sycamores clothed the banks,
drooping their boughs almost to the
water, and forming a vista of foliage
through which the stream curved out
of sight between wooden hills. I long
to be rowed up it.1 While on the spot
took occasion to inquire the deriva
tion of the slan political phrase,
"Rowed up Salt River," and succeed
ed in discovering it. Formerly, there
were extensive salt works on the river,
n short distance from its mouth. .The
laborers employed in them were a set
of athletic, belligerent, fellows, who
soon became noted, far and wide, for
their achievements in the pugilistic
line. - Hence it became a common
thing among the boatmen on the Ohio,
when one of their number was refrac
tory, to say to him "We'll row yen up
Salt river' where, of eourse. the buliy

istening to join the party at the green,
laced himself in an open cellar at a

We ' believe' savs the - Philarlelnhia
L Ledger, is shrouded in some obscuri
ty, and has conferred anything but a
benefit upon the race. "
; It is said that the first pistols were
made at Pistoga, in Italy, which town
still has considerable manufactures of
fire arms and cutlery.' The invention
probably was recommended at first as
a protection against violence; high
waymen and assassins, from providing
tnemseives witn tne latest improve
ments in the way of pocket fire arms,
the safety of the honest man however
well armed he may be, is rather en
dangered than promoted by the inven
tion. Perhaps the difficulty cannot
bow be avoided,' but in one view it is a
very unfortunate circumstance that
the police of our cities are provided ' j
with these dangerous implement.. ,

of a pistol may perhaps
but the shooting of evi
under such circumstances is punish
ment before trial, when, as is not un
frequently the case innocentby-stand-ers
or passengers are wounded. It is
poor consolation that the preservation
of the ieace involves the danger of
killing or maimiug eaceable persons.
The law requires such formalities be
fore military force is employed that
those who value their lives and limbs
have a chance to get out of the way.
Bnt when the police force is a milita
ry force disguised,; any unfortunate
man in a public Btreet may have his
life imperiled. " : " :
But it may be said that rogues,'
thieves and bullies, go armed, and the
f.lice therefore must be ' armed too.
here is a law against carrying con
cealed deadly weapons,' which ought
to be enforced. The finding of a pis
pol or any other weapon upon the per
son of a disorderly man should be as
strong presumptive evidence against
him as the finding of a skeleton key
or a slung shot in the possession of a
thief. There was a .time when a
tramper or any other person "without
visible means of support", found with
a pistol in his possession, would re

to the old Duke of Wellington at the

was in attendance. At such times the
j sovereign docs not f wear ' the large,
:, heavy crown : that 1 is ' placed on; his
', head at the time of his coronation;
but it is borne before him, on a little
satin cushion, carried by- a Ttoblemaa
of high rtnk, who walks backward, so
that while the croWn is always in front
of the monarch as he goes in or out,
. the bearer of the royal diadem does
, not have to turn his back on the king
or aueen. On the occasion I speak
'. of, tne Duke oi Wellington, then quite
;, an old -man, held the crown on its
; lainty satin cushion as he stood be
'' tore Her Majesty. It was a novel pp
f -.ition for the old soldier, who had
r' spent most of his years in fighting the
battles of his Countiy; and the new
houses ' of 1 Parliament having been
, arected in his absence from England,
" he was not altogether familiar with
the surroundings. ' The business, of
the morning being1 over, the Queen
was about to retire, when the venera-
, ble Duke, crown in hand, backing out
iccording to court etiquette, forgot
the little step at tbe foot ot the throne,
stumbled, and in attempting to regain
hlB f00tdold. dropped the 'massive
3rown from h8 hands. "It came with
reat violence to the floor, and rolled
Siite across the hall, badly bruising
e diadem, and scattering the costly
I jewels in1 every direction. The old
'. Duke,' accomplished courtier as he
' was, etood for a moment aghast at the
injury inflicted on so precious an ar
' tide, and then would have stooped to
y gather up the scattered jewels. -' But
: , the Qneen saw in an instant his evi

, .'' genuine kindness of heart, and quick
;r perception of what will be pleasing to
V others, for "which she is so remark
: able, the Queen stepped gracefully
I forward, and offering her hand to the

him in rising, said, cordially: "I trust
