in the order they are placed. .
It uppenrs that these varieties do well every

K STORY OF A QUAKER.
A returned soldier who fought at the bat,-
tle of Gettysburg, tells the following story
about. i Quaker :1-
“ A Quaker. who had never fired agun in
his lifebjoined one of the Pennsylvania reg
iments in the battle ostttyaburg. When
the order was given to fire. his musket
refused to obey orders. Thinking he hail
too small ‘a load in, he said "l‘hee won’a
go, hey! well. Iwill give thee anotlzordosa‘,’
and down went. another load. He tried
again. but it was no use. so he kept on load
ing and crying until he had seven cartrirlgags
downnvhqp one of his comrades, on exami
nation, fouhd the lubefiobstrucled. and told
the Quaker what to do. So following hls
advice, he soon put. his gun in trim. By
this time the order was given tome. and he
did. at. the same time turning two or thfie
somersuulls. The en lain noticing this
strange manmuvro, wni‘ked towards him, $t
the snmeLtime picking up the musket. By
this lime the Quaker raised himself up,
leaning on one elbow, and seeing the cup
triin uke up the gun, pxcluiined, at the to!)
of hisrvoice, ‘I pray thee. Cthnin, touch t
not; itsnill hurb thee. I have put sew;
loads in it. It will fire six times more, %
sgreas there is a God in Israel.’ ”

direct line with the bedpnzt, about the mid

came in coninct with the aforesaid piece of
furniture. he pitched over it with perfect
looseuess; and upon gaining an erect posi
tion, .ere an equilibrium was estublhhed, he
went. over backwards, in an equally suin
mnry manner. Again he struggled to his
feet llud weut heudforemogt over the bower
of infant happiness. At léngth. with a fifth
full, his patience became exhausted, and
the obstacle was yet. to be overcome. In
desperation he criéd out to his sleeping
partner: ‘ -

you got in the house? I've fallen over five,

If we omit. them, they say we have no
eaterprise, or suppress them for political

If we publish origins) matter, they damn
us for not giving selections. .
If we publish selections, folks say we are
lazy, for not writing more and giving
them what they have not read in some

If we give a man complimentary notices,
we are censured for being pfll'fild.
