ml smong these waf a wild liaruni ecarum
blade from' 'Down EaV by the name of Cape
iJawlaw. Now Cape was as hard 'a Cae, as
y.m -vouW meet on a fourth of July, in Texa,
always alive for fun and sport of any ami every
(Inscription, and a strung disbeliever in Miller-i.-in.
,
Tli night of the third df April wis agreed
upon out west here, (or the grand exhibition of
"omunJ and lofty tumbling,'" and about ten o'
clock of the said night, numbers of Miller ites
embled on fhe eutsltirle of the town, on a
I'tilo eminence, upon which the proprietors had
a. lowed a few trees to stand. In the Crowd,
and tlie only representative of his race present,
a free negro, by the name of Sam, about aa
ii'.'ly, black, woolly a descendant of Mam, as
ever baked his shins over a kitchen fire.
Sam's head was small, body and arms very,
lung, and his legs bore a remarkable seso-ni-bianco
to a pair of hams; in fact, put Sam on a
dorae, his tegs clasped round its neck! his head
towards the tail, and his arms clasped round the
mimal's hams.nnd at ten paces of! you would
RA-'ar that he was aa old set of patent glaring.
The leader of the Alilleritcs, owing to an an
cient grudge he bore him, hated Sam Mike
smoke,' and had done all in his power to prevent
liij admittance among the 'elect,' but all to no
p:i'pose. Sain would creep in at every meet
ing; to night here he was sgain, dressed in a
w Intl.- rnbe of cheap cotton, secured to hi body
ly a belt, and shoutiug and praying aa loud as
the best.
Now, on the morning of the third, Cabe had,
with a deal of preservers nee, and more trouble,
managed to throw a half inch hemp rope over
IU-branch of an oak which stretched its long arm
lirocily ovr the spot where the Milleri'es
-aouIJ assemble ; one end he had secured to
t!ie body ol the tree and the other tost urn n grime
i
li lance off. About ten o'clock, when the e
ciumcnt was getting about 'sixty pounds to the
tqnare inch,' Cabe, wrapped in an old sheet,
walked ioto the crowd, and proceeded to fasten
i.i as secure a manner as possible, the end of the
rope to the back part ef the belt which confined
Sim's rope succeeded and sloped to join some
.t his companions who had the end. The few
xtars in the sky threw a dim light over the'
tcciu'. and in a few moments the voire of Sam
wis heard, exclaiming, 'Got Ahnight ! I'se a
iiiu up ! Who-o oh !' and sure enough Sam
ivj .seen mounting into the 'ethcrial blue;' his
scent was, however, checked when he ' had
cleared terra firms a few feet, '(..lory !' cried
one, Hallelujah !' another, and shrieks and yells
made the night hideous, some fainted, others
piayed, and not a few dropped their robes and
ttiJ. Now whether it wus owir.g to the light
ness of his head or the length and weight ofhis
heels, or both, Sam's position was not a pleasant
one ; the belt to which Cape's cord was attach
ed was bound exactly round his centre of gravi
ty, and Sam swung like a pair of sca'cs, head
up and heels down, bee. up and head down, at
the same time sweeping m-r the crowd like a
ftendutom, which ntotioii was accelerated by his
trenuovs clapping of hands and vigorous kick
ing. At length he became alarmed, he wouldn't
K up aud he couldn't come down ! 'Lor a
Massy,' cried he, 'jist take urn poor nigger to
um twuin.or let uia down a gin, easy, easy.Gor
Almighty -Lef um down agin, please um Lord,
and die nigger will gn straight to um bed !
Ugh-u h' and Barn's teeth chattered with af
fright and he licked again more vigorously
than before, bringing his head directly down
ward, and his heels up, when a woman shrieking
cot. Oh ! Cr i.i her Sam, take nie with you,
t-prung at his hesd as he swept by her, and
caught him by the wool, bringing him up all
Mandicig. -Gosh! Swser,' cried Sam, 'lef go
um poor nigger's hair. Cabo gave another
pull at tho rope, but the additional weight was
loo much, the belt gave way, and down came
Ham, his bullet head taking the leader of the
saints a 'feeler' just between tho eyes. 'Goth !
is I down agin 1' cried the bewildered Sam, ga
thering himself up, I i, tress de Lord but I
was nearly dar 1 seed de gates !' The leader
wiped hi overflowing probotcis, took Sain by
the nape of the neck, led him to the' edge of the
crowd, and giving him a k ck 'a la posteriori,'
said, 'Leave, you cussed baboon you are so
q d ugly I knowed tbe-y wouldn I lei you
in. A. Y. Sjirit uf ike Time.
Mothu Wit A stingy husband threw off
the blame ot the lawlesuees ofhis children in
company by saying his wife a! ways "gives them
her own way." "Pour things," was her prompt
response, "it's all J have to give them."
An elderly gentleman being dangerously ill,
his friends advised him to send for physician,
"No," repiied the sick man, "hating lived vir
tuot life. 1 wiah to die a natural death."

Dear Sir I owe it in the afflicted to inform you

M illed on my lung. It wa arcnpanied by a ve

met!icl aid in our village ; bul after ethaualing all
their ki: no av.il, they pronounced my ili-ee a
rosriatasn coiaoMraoir, and they one and al!
gave me up to die. After much pru.ion I got
ihe ronoent of my physician to use the Balm or

including a number of hotths of Stoatm't Tanncra,

a few n plication Ihe violent itching c ased, the

and before I h .d used a jar the di-ease was entirely
cured. It ha now been near'y a year and a half

by Ihe disease. Il is impossible for me to dfcril
