there was sounds of footsteps in

hit there was cries of,

At this point the Band begun

bress horns, and a exceedingly
ragged boy wanted to know if
there wasn't to be some wittles
afore the concern broke up ? I
didn’t exactly know what to do,

. HUMORS OF THE DRAFT.
The orders from Washington
i fur the State, to enroll their mi-
(litia preparatory to a draft,
should one become necessary,
has demonstrated the fact that
there are a good many cowards.
We don’t know that it is any
disgrace to a man to be consti-
tutionally afraid to fight. He
is just as he was born and if you
really put him into a fight, ten
to one he will fight more brave-
ly than one who is more cool
and calculating. © But it is
amusing to see with what ter-
rible concern these people view
the orders to enrol the militia.
Although they do not stand
one chance in twenty of being
drawn, yet they are extremely
anxious to be scratched off the
list of able bodied men.
At Milwaukee (according to
the papers,) a fellow applied to
be scratched off, on the ground
of physical disability, when the
following conversntion ensued
between him and the surgeon:
Surgeon—Have you ever had
fits ?
Applicant—Yes sir!
Surgeon— What kind?
Applicaut—All kinds,
Surgeon—[ Making a note]—
Have you ever had the itch?
Applicant—Yes sir.
Surgeon—Are you troubled
with the piles?
Applicant—I am, constant-
ly.
Surgeon—{ putting his ear to
applicant's chest]—you have a
cough, frequently; I suppose?
Applicant—Very frequently.
Surgeon—It is the asthma,
or what causesit?
Applicant—I believe it is
the asthma.
Surgeon—[feeling of the
man’s sides]—How is your liv-
er? have you pains here ?
Applicant—Yes sir, dreadful
pains when I am tired.
Surgeon—And you some-
times faint from weakness, I
suppose ?
Applicant—Frequently,
Surgeon [again putting his
car to the man’s chest, where
his great heart and lungs could
be heard like a might engine
turning out blood and vitality]
—\Well, sir, you are just the
man we want: here's your cer-
tificate.
The look of well-mixed hor-
ror and astonishment that fo'-
lowed would have baffled an
artist to paint.

EDWARD BUCKETS COURT-
SILLP,
Old Mr. Posey, the father of
Polly Posey, lived close by our
house, and Polly used to come
over right often; she was a
darned purty gal, and I used to
have some mighty quare feel-
ings about her; at last, one day
my mother says to me:
‘Ned, why don’t you court
Polly Posey? 1 think she'd
make a prime wife.’
Oh,’ says I, ‘mammy, I do
want to, but 1 don’t know what
to say to her.
‘ Why, Ned, says she, ‘gest
go, an’ the fust good chance
you get, say ‘fine weather,
Miss: Polly,” and that will do
for a beginning, and one word
brings on another, and if she
likes you you may soon tell it,
and when you get in a good way
of chat, gest say, ‘Miss Polly,
you've got my heart,” and if she
likes that purty well, then pop
the question.’
So one Sunday evening, I
told mother I thougnt it was a
good time to go to see Polly;
she said so did she. So I fixed
up, put on my best clothes and
combed my hair, and axed
mother if she thought 1’d do.
‘Oh, yes,’ says she, ‘I'd call
you the * clean thing,” now.’
So oft I starts, and soon found
myself at Mr. Posey’s door.
* Who's thar ?’ says Mrs. Po-
sey.
‘ Edward Bucket,’ says I.
‘Walk in, Mr. Bucket ; how’s
your mammy and the chil-
dren ?’ :
‘All stirrin’, I thank ye,
how's all ‘your folks?’
‘All well, sir.
There sot Miss Polly; says
I, ‘What's the news, Miss
Polly 2
‘Oh, Mr, Bucket,’ says she,
nothin’, I b'leve, only 1 heard
you were about to get married.’
Thar, thought I, the subject's
broached already. ‘Oh, no,’
Miss Polly, I only want to be.
About this time night comes
on, and it begun to rain dread-
fully; in ran the old man.
‘How do you do, Mr. Po-
sey?’
‘ How are you, Mr. Bucket ?’
‘Well, 1 thank you.’
After a while supper was
over, and I began to think I
ought to be saying something
on the subject. Sol sot on my
chair, and my heart swelled;
all was full of life but me; 1
was thinking about'my bizzi-
ness; so at last, says Mrs. Po-
sey :
‘Polly, go to the door, and
see if the rain ain’t quit.
Polly jumped up, and run to
the door, and locking out,
said :
‘It's so dark, Ma, I cait’t
see but by the lightnen; I see
another cloud just behind.’
‘ Now, thought I, is my time.
Polly kept staying in the piaz-
zer, and I sot still, sighing in
my chair, till at last I called
up all my courage, and walked
to where Polly was; It was so
dark, I couldn’t see her, and so
I spoke, that she might answer
so as how I could find her
‘ Fine weather, Miss Polly.’
Oh, no, Mr. Bucket, it’s too
rainy.’
‘Well, I don’t noe, but the
rain does make it worse,’ says
I, and by this time I had got
my band on her shoulder.
“One word brings on another,’
says L
* Sometimes,’ says she. ¢ La,
Mr. Bucket what an ugly night
for a wedding,’
Thar, thought I, now’s my
time; so, says 1: :
‘Miss Polly, mother says
you've got my liver.
¢ Oh, no, Mr. Bucket, maybe
it's your heart.”
This stumped me, and if I
could of got my hat I b’leve I
would left off then, but she
kept talking on full of life, but
I couldn’t forget the liver—so
I told her I would come again,
before long, and she said she
didn’t care if I did; and I told
her I wanted to court her, and
she said she didn’t care if 1
did ; so I got my hat and start,
ed home, arter the usual good
night, and all the way home I
kept thinking about the liver,
but I thought nobody would
noe it, and it would rub off,
But Polly told all the girls of
it, 'till mother got hold of it,
and I guess as how I gota gen-
teel scolding—but the people
all laughed at me so much
about it, that I got right mad
with Polly, and hain’t spoke to
her since, and every time I see
a young feller, without experi-
ence, arter the girls, I think of
the fine weather and the liver.
IRISH WITNESS,
‘Witnesses in court are not
alway as manageable as ‘clay
in the hands of the potter.
Sometimes the dullness of the
deponent proves a dangerous
weapon to the lawyers, or mys-
tifies the bench in a manner to
set the audience in a roar of
laughter. Not seldom a stupid
exterior masks the most mis-
chievous cunning, and so, to the
delight of the lookers-on, a
brow-beating attorney ‘catches
a tartar, and the witness es-
capes in triumph.
An action was brought
against the owner of a wagon,
which by the carelessness of
the driver, had crushed an un-
lucky donkey against a wall
and killed him.—Sergeant
Cockle, well known for his
roughness of examination, was
perplexing one of the witnesses,
who found no other way of ex-
tricating himself than by giving
a graphic description of the
matter in question.
‘ Well, my Lord Joodge,
said the hesitating clown, ¢ I'll
tell you how it happened as
well as I can, My Lord, sup-
pose I am the wagon, here I
was, Now, my Lord Joodge,
there you are, you are the
‘wall.” The describer now hes-
itated as if trying to recollect
his third position.
‘Come fellow,” said Cockle,
‘out with your story at once.
You have not told us, where
was the ass.)
‘My Lord Joodge,” said the
witness. with a sudden sparkle
in his“eye, ‘ his honor, the coun-
sel was the ass.
Of course the court was in a
roar.
But the lawyers are not the
only victims of facetious. wit-
nesses, now and then the court
catches it in the most palpable
and ludicrous manner. Hexe
is a case which will be remem-
bered bya good many people
who were present on the occa-
gion, as a veritable fact, that
made a world of tun at the time
of its occurrence in one of the
southern counties of this State.
Judge G. (this initial must suf-
fice) is a very decided charact-
er, and more good stories are
told about him than any man
on the bench in that region.
The Judges manner in court is
dogmatic, dramatic and aro-
gant; and nothing pleases the
bar so well as to see him hearti-
ly laughed at. They had a
fine chance one day when an
Irish witness was on the stand
who being rather unmanage-
able, was taken in hand by the
judge, with a manner which
said very plainly: ‘ You shall
see, gentlemen, how I'll handle
him,’ i :
‘Well Dennis,” said the
Judge blandly, ‘tell me the
contents of the chest.’
‘Yes, yer honor, said the
witness eagerly. ‘First there
was a picture of Dan O'Connell
—the great Irish patriot=—may-
be yer-honor’s heard of him ?’
‘Certainly,’ said the Judge.
‘Go on with the inventory.
‘Then there was a picture of
our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ—maybe yer honor’s
heard of him?’
"The seeming unaffected look
of inquiry and doubt that ac-
companied the witness’ words,
set the audience in a roar of
laugnter—and the Judge will
never hear the last of it.
IT is stated that at Vicks-
burg, Miss., flour sells for $52
