Toe woni-m wear son-bonnets in the winter and sit in open roo us, while the me t wear butternut jeans, and !o k like their ancesiors. 1 saw a crowd >f Egypt ians this raor i.ing who come over to Tatnara from the Little Muddv. They were saturated with alcohol Hnd smoked with tobacco \ill they had the real mummy appeara ce. Hieroglyphic# are not Kssd in Egypt now. The American Egypt ians, as a general thing, cannot write at all. When an Egyptian r.auts.to coram unicate anything to another Egyptian living at a dis tance ho strides a mule, slides tm*agh the swamiw, and with cer tain words which we Atnoricau# do not understand mikes the other Egyptians understand what he wants. When they are #rtier they are harmless, but two drinks of whisky a d a PLUG <-f IIMCCO on an empty tomach will nnike an Egypt ian worse than a JJishi-B zmk Yesterday I saw one cbaiged with a full pint of alooliol and two plugs *f tobacco, a dose that only t'lo rich Egyptians can indulge iu.

"How)did the Captain escape ?" '< I asked. "Well,"sai l the Colonel, "Mas n | with u d< zen fellows from thelittle j Muddy, enlisted in .ly regiment. He wiis a splendid soldier, always ,:roady for battle—one of the iiecst .fellows in the regiment, but be .would have his sprees. One dav weeks lie fore the battle of Mission Jii'Jge, Mason brought a canteen of whisky into camp, and always generops, went to giving. it to the boys. This was against or ders, so I ordered my Major to ar rest him and put him in Hie guard - house. Mt'sou found out that the Major was atter him with a squad cf men, and full of deviltry, he com menced dodging ar-iu.id behind the tents to keep from being at rested. But pretty qui ;k, in trying to keep away from the men, ho ran square against the Major." -"Jiere, you rase.d \\ said the Ma jor, seizing him by the coat collar, without giving hi a a chance to ex plain. "Now, .you walk to the guardhouse! I'll fix you, you scoundrel!" £ut in tlie excitement of the mo. mcjit Mason drew up his fist and knocked the Major fiat, and then he 11 and gnre bSiusolf up "Wliat was douo about it?" 1 asked. - "Well, Mason was tried before a Court Martial for striking a superior fOllicer, sentenc d to be shot, and the sentence was aent to General Jeff. C. Davis to be approved. And then poor M won was imprisoned on bread and water, with a ball and Chain to each foot." "Did General Davis approve tho sentence ?" "Yes, he approved it/" "Rut how did Mason escape beiug shot T' "Well, the next day before the ap proved sentence arrived came the liattleof Mission Ridge, und our mriineut was ordered forward. Masvs go into this tight withoir. me ?" and the teats j came to his eyes. ! "Got to. Mason," I said. "1 1 c.tu*t trust you " "Then."" continued the narrator. "the order came from General Da vis for our regiment to move up and charge a reliel redoubt, and the bns dashed fonVard. > It was an awful light. Twice they enfiladed us, and the ;elvl b i llets roowtd down our men by dz *ns, while the rebel flag still waV"d on t!ie redoubt. "Colonel, you must capture that redoubt," WHS the order that came trora General Divis. "s) ir men were now badly tired out, and the dead u"d wounded lay Hll around us ; but I got our men toother and iu nle th* final charge. GxN what a charge ! 51 y hois* 4 was feillr-d Hurler nie. The men went forward iu u shower cf bullets. I thought they were g o*ng straight fr that rt g then all at once they wavered. Thd bullet.* like ram. and the advance men were all shot down. There was no one to lead and I thou gat all was lo.ff. Just then I saw a man come rushing on from the lea-. He grabbed a dead soldier's repeating rille and pusheu right through dead and dying, reach' ed the head, and pushed up *be re doubt. Toe lioys saw him, took courage and followed. Iu a in> tuent I saw the brave fellow swing his rift* around him on thg top of the redoubt, grasp ;he tl it staff and break il off, while the boys strug gled up the side and emptied their guns into the ret'eating rebels. " 'Toe dav was ours ! As I came up I shouted "Who took the flag, boys ?" "It was Mts MI !" said tue boys, and looking d r.vn, I saw a broken ciain :md a shackle still on his an kle.!' Ttieu the narrator's voice clinked liittl and the tears cu il" int h.seyes. * I couldn't help it, C do iid,"' sntl Mason, "I c luldn't see the boys fighting*] iu ', so I got the ax and pounded >ff the ball and chain, and now, U d mel, I*ll go back and put 'euj on again." "Go back and put 'em on again!" I almost cried. "No, sir ! M.tson. I'll put them on myself fi st." "Tneu," >aid the Col ii.*l, "I re llecttd that this wasn't uiili'uty and 1 told the bravo fellow to stay with two of the novs." "Tuat night," continued the Colonel, • I wrote over to General D-tvis auout Mason's b-'aveiy—how lie ca tuiv.l the reuel ll tg and I—e* tilled ttlUkt'ttrs : "Wall, Cil 1 itl,lt's hard, but I can stand it if any OIIP can."

Mr. Taltunge la-t week: "Tbewoild will have to learn that the newspaper is an in slitiitimi, and til it it requires inii niie brains It is folly for any one who cannot succeed iu anything else to try newsp tnerdoui. To publish a newspaper requires the skill, preci sion, boldness, vigilance, and strate gy of a commander-in-chief. To edit it requires that one be a states man, an essayist, a geographer, in fact, .1 i encyclopedia.
