BADLY " floro."—The Columbus Ohio, State
Journal, a Republican sheet, published the fol
lowing contribution, without noticing that it was
an acrostic :
HURRAH FOE THE UNION.
H ail, ye heroes, who in battle
" IT vole Samuel's cannon rattle,
R aiee our standard—let it wave ;
R ally to the fallen brave.
A ti. I our emblem's floating o'er
H orrid battle fields of gore.
F alter not, but crush their folly ;
0 rder volley after volley ;
R Mee our banner to the sun,
V iewed in oldeti Limes by one—
A lways honored, WABLIINGT011:
L ondly we your praises sing—
L oudly now your name will ring,
A nd when traitors foul are laid,
N aweless in a grave they made,
ark and dismal clouds will pass,
I mitring to us peace at. last.
O real has been this infant nation,
ended down with exultation ;
A nd you—sons of fearless sires—
M Killian nobly your own fires.
Lies Issuastics.—An exchange relates the
following as "Josh Billings's" experience in the
life insurance business. Ile says he made appli
cation to the " Garden Angel Life Insurance
Co." when the following questions were pro
pounded by a "slick little fat old fellow with
gold specks :"
Ist—Are yu mail or femail? if so, state bow
long yn have been so.
31—Arei yu subject to fits, and if so, du yu
have more than one at a time ?
33—What iz yore precise tiling weight?
4th—Did yu ever hay enny ancestors, and it
so, how much?
sth—What ii yore legal opinion ov the consti
tutionality ov the 10 commandments ?
Gth—Du yu ever have ran . ), Trite mares 7
th—Are yu married and single, or are yu
bachelor?
Bth-1)u yu beleave in a futer state ? if yu du,
IMMO
9th—What are yure private sentiments about
a rush ov rata to the bead; can it be did suc
cessfully ?
Nth—Hair ya ever committed suicide, and if
so, how did it seem to affect yu?
After answering the above questions, like a
man in the confirmatif, the silk little fat old fel
low with gold specks on, ced I was insured for
life, and proberly wad remain so for a term ov
years. I thanked him and smiled one ov toy
most pensive smiles.
" THE FIIST CREIMEIIS."—A friend of ours Ilfbo
has just left the 'Union Arkansas troops tells
many curious incidents. Here is one of them:
Kamm Non—" What regiment do you belong
to I"
Private in First Arkansas Cavalry—
Centers."
•{ What. ?"
.‘ The Fust Creeteri."
The Arkansas soldier pointed to the horses
(. erecters"), and at last made our friend un
derstand that he belonged to the First Arkansas
Cavalry.
It is further said that the infantry hoys say
they belong to the " walking regiment," and the
artillery men are 14 cannon" soldiers.
ler Ms LATEST mode of shop-lifting is said
to be for an elegantly dressed lady to enter an
establishment and ask for a garter. Blushing
clerk offers a piece of silk braid, and turns mod
eatly away while the lady avails herself of it—
not to hold up her silk stocking, but to tie a
large piece of goods to her crinoline, and retire
bowing and smiling her thanks.
Mir TA.LK is not the only valuable thing about
a man. There is often a more potent influence
than fluency. Thus when a pert young barris
ter once boasted to a member of the bar that be
had received twenty guineas for speaking in a
certain lawsuit, the other replied—'• I received
double that Bum fpr keeping silence in that very
same case."
