Wo traarlato from a Gar man sketch of Americstu travel the sub joined aecount of an incident alleged to have occurred on a Mississippi steamboat a abort timo before the war. "I ascended tha Mississippi," suys the writer, "on a steamer on board of which were Judge J and Gen eral K , of Pennsylvania, with both of whom I was slightly ac quainted. "A bard set, these Natchez men," s lid the captain, who met us on t'.e cabin-stairs. "There's some of them down in the saloon playing a high gaiuh. How men can be such fools. I could never see !" "Let's go down and look on a while," slighted the judge. "Id the saloon we found four men seated at a table, around which a crowd of spectators was gathered. The four were the "heavy players.'' "The game was poker, and the money changed knack rapidly. We had not been looking on long, when one of the players, a middle-aged man, who I learned was a cotton p'anter, bet his last dollar against the hand of one of his antagonists. The latter showed four kings, while he had only four queens. He was "cleairod out," and rose us though he wcrogoing to leave the table. "Ar.e yuu broke, colonel ?" asked one of the men. "Dead 1" was the mconic reply. "Never oaiud ; I'll lend you." "No ; I can make a raise, I reck on.—Here, Pomp !" "Here, mass 1" responded an old negro, as he emerged from one cor ner of the saloon. "Bring that girl aud her young ster here, that I bought in Natchez. Wait a few minutes, gentlemen. I'll raise some money. "The old negro went ou his er rand and soon returned with the girl and her youngster. The "girl*' proved to be a stately mulatto wo man about thirty five years old. I-ler "youngster" was a fine, intelli gent looking boy eleven or twelve years old, whose complexion showed kiuitobemuch more nearly allied to the white race tliau to the black "Here, geuMemeu" said theplant cr, as they entered, "you see th3 girl and her boy—two as fine niggers as fon can find aaywheie. I paid eight hundred dollars for ILem yes terday in Natchez. Who will give six bundled for them ?" "Will you scit them separate 1" a iked some one. "No can't do it ; I promised not to. The girl swears she'll take her life if sh;'s separated from her boy, and Uer old master said that lie was sure she'd keep lier word. But don't you all see that the girl is worth m ire money than I ask for both of them ? Come, who'll give me six hundred for both ? "The planter waited a moment for a reply, and then said : "Well, I must have some money. Come, what say you to a raflle— thirty chances at tweuty dollars a chance ? Oat with your cash, gen tlemen. The fiist on the list has the first throw !" "Tnis proposition created a decid ed stir among all present. The three piaj'ers at the led off by taking three chances each. Their example was followed by the specta tors, and twenty chances were tak en as rapidly as the planter could write down the names and take the mono . Tiien there was a slight pause. The planter liimseif now took two chances, and he was fol lowed by his three fellow-players, who each took one chance more. Finally, three more chances were taken by the spectators, when the planter cried out: "To chances still, gentlemen ! Win *lll have them I" "Gereial K chispered some thing in Judge S 's ear, and then went to the table and laid two ten dollar goldpieces on it." "Name, sir, please," "Never mind the name. Put it down for the woman—" "Eh—what! for the girl herself?" "Yes, certainly ; let's give her a chance." • "All right 1 One for Ninette. And now—" "That's for the boy," said Judge j , quietly, as he laid twenty dollars ou the table. "Good ! bravo ! bravo ! cried the planter and several of the by-stand- Hi s. "One for Tommy, which uiakiM the thirty. Now, gentlemeD, kt's seo whom luck favors." *• —— "The dice were brought and tho throwing began. Each chance en titled the holder to three throws," "Tlr.rty-six was the highest until the holder of tho eleventh chance •threw. lie scored forty-t wo. Then a less number was thrown, until number twenty-one scored forty niue. "Tho excitement now became in tense. Forty-nine was hard to beat ; the highest throw possible be ing nine sixes—fifty-four." "Again and ag tin the dice rattled in tne box, until it came to 'number twenty-nine." "Come, Ninette—it"s your turn uow !" "As the poor woman came for ward, her hands crossed and pressed convulsively against her breast, it was truly paiuful tc witness l.er agitation." "Won't the gentleman that took the chance for me please throw?" she asked in a low, tremulous tone. "No ; let your boy throw," re plied the general ; "perhaps he would have more luck tkau I." "Come, Tom," said the planter. "Tom came forward and picked up tho box. The woman pressed her lips firmly together au0 FC.V IX HIM. One of tie members of the Meth odist conference, recently Ik Id in Detroit, Michigan, was out for a walk at an early hour one morning, and while on Howard Street he en countered a stapping big fellow, who was drawing a wagon to the •blacksmith's shop. "Catch hold here, and help me down to the shop with this wagon, and I'll Luy the whisky," called the fellow. "I never drink,solemnly replied the good man. "Well, you can take a cigar." "I never smoke." The man dropped the wagon shaft looked hard at the member, and a3ked, "Don't you chew ?" "No, sir!" was the decided re ply. "You must get mighty lonesome," mused the teamster. "I guess I'm all right ; I feel first-rate." "I'll bet you even tuat I can lay you 011 your back," remarked the teamster. "Come, now, let's warm up a lit tie." " I never bet." "Well, let's take each other down for fun, then, fou are as big as I am. and I'll give you the underhold." "I never have any fun," solemnly answered the member. "Well, I'm going to tackle you, anyway. Here we go." The teamster slid up, and en deavored to get a neck hold, but lie had only just commenced to fool about, when he was lifted clear off the grass and slammed against a tree box with such force that he gasped half a dozen times before ho could get his breath. "Now you keep away from me 1" exclaimed the minister, picking up his cane. "Bust me if I don't 1" replied the teamster, as he edged off. What's the use in lying, and saying you didn't have any fun in you, when you're chuck full of it ? Blame it ! you wanted to break in y neck, didn't you ? You just hang around here about five minutes, vou old Texas, and I'll bring on a feller who'll cave in your head." "I never hang," said the minister as lie sauntered off ; and the team ster leaned upon his wagon and mused. TUE HEARTS OF THE LOWLY. One day, three or four weeks ago, a gamin, who seemed to have no friends in the world, was run over by a vehicle on Gratiot avenue, De troit, and fatally injured. After lie had been in the hospital for a week a boy about his age and size, called to ask about him and leave an or ange. He seemed much embarrass ed, and would answer no questions. After thai he came daily, always bi inging something, if uo more than an apple. Last week when the nurse told liirn that Billy had no chance to get well, the strango boy waited around longer than usual, and finally asked if ne could go in. He had been invited to many times before, but always refused. Billy, pale and weak and emaciated, open ed his eyes in wonder at the sight of the boy, and beforo ho realized who it was the stranger bent close to his face and .jobbed: "Billy, cin7e forgive ft fellow? Wo was alius fightiu' and 1 was al ius too much for ye, but I'm sorry ! Fore ye die won't ye toll me ye haven't any grudge agin me ?" The young lad, then almost in tho shadow of death, reached up his thin white anus, clasped thorn around tho other's neck and re plied : "Don't cry, bob—don't feel bad 1 was ugly and mean, and I was hav ing a stone at ye when tho wagon hit me. If ye ll forgive mo I'll for give ye, and I'll pray fur both of us-" Bob was half an hour late t.ie morning billy died. When the nurse took him io the shrouded corpse he kissed tho pale face tender ly and gasped : "D— did lie say anything about— about me V" "lie spoke of you just before be died—asked if you were bore," re plied -the nurse. "And may I gi—go to the fun eral V" "You may." And he did. lie was the only mourner. Ilis heart was the only one tlmt ached. No tears were shed by others, and they left him sitting by tho new-made grave with a heart so big that he could not speak. If, under the crusts of vice and ignorance, there Rie such springs of pure feeling and true nobility, who shall grow weary of doing good.— Detroit J>\ee P rtss. < ■ KitU, BIT DYING OK SIIUYATIOX The Cincinnati Enquirer of Sat urday published a remarkable story of the life of Jerty Tullis, of that city, who died on Friday night from sickuess caused by lack of food and by self-neglect and exposure. Tul lis was worth $2,000,000 or $:t,000,- 000 iu real estate, bonds, etc , most •of which he Scad accumulated by ex treme economy ami close but stiictly honest dealings. lie owned a large amount of prouerty in Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis ; was the heaviest land-owner in Butler, a wealthv county adjoining Hamilton (Ohio), and owned about one huu dred thousand acres of land in lowa and Missouri. He was very peculi ar in his habits, buying his clothes only at second hand and living at cheap restaurants. He had been ill for some time before his death, but refused to employ a physician on account of expenses. lie was a man of fair education and had stud ied law with Mr. Carey, of Cincin nati, in order to tit himself to at tend to his own business and save attorney's fees. He was very eccen tric and self-denying in his habits, avoiding society, living in a wretch ed, dirty room in an obscure alley or in a log hut on one of his numerous farms, dressing wretchedly, having the appearance of a third-rate tramp. He was unmarried and had few friends or relatives, lie remarked shortly before his death that he car ed little what became of his proper ty excel*, that he hoped those who got it would enjoy spending it as much as lie had its accumulation. STOBY OF A PICII BE. A painter once wanted a picture of innocence, and drew the likeness of a child at prayer. Tho suppli cant wns kneeling beside his moth er ; the palms of his uplifted bands were reverently pressed together ; his rosv cheek spoke of health, and his mild blue e>e was upturned with the expression of devotion and peace. The portrait of young Itu pert was much prized by the painter who hung it on his study wall, and called it "innocence." Years passed away, and the artist, became an old man. Still the pic ture hung there. He had often thought of making a counterpart— the pictuer of "Guilt"—but had not found the opportunity. At last he effected his purpose by paying a vis it to a neighboring jail. On the damp floor of his cell lay a wietched culprit named Randall, heavily iron ed. Wasted was his body and hollow was h : s eyb ; vice was visi ble in his face. The painter suc ceeded admirably, and the portrait of young Rupert and Randall were liung side by side, for "innocence" and "Guilt." But who was young Rupert and who was Randall ? Alas! the two were one. 1 >1(1 Randall was young Rupert led astray by bad compan ions, and ending his life in the damp and shameful dungeon. Ax Unwilling Manslayek. — A most unfortunate man, a resident of Murray county, Ga., has, since the war, accidentally killed five men. The first was slain by en axe slipping froo his hand and striking the victim on the head ; the second he drowned by snagging and sink ing a boat in which die pair were crossing a stream.; the third was shot through the brain, being mis taken for a turkey ; the fourth was killed by a tree he had chopped down, and the fifth was killed at a long rolling. He was put on trial for his life on several occasions, but each time was exonerated from all blame. lie is a peaceable, law abidiug man, simply the victim of a chain xif unhappy circumstancos.— Oglethorpe Echo.
