The belief in "signs," "wonders," and
"tokens" is very generally entertained among
the people in the "old rountry;" and even in
the United &etre, which boasts superior in
telligence, there are many good persons who
do not hesitate to X.zpre‘s their faith in the
same.- A ootemporary has been at some pains
to collect the most common of - these supersti
tions, and they present a curious conglochera•
lion, to say the least. Odd anp ridiculous as
they may appear to many of 0.1, however, we
venture to assert that one-third of the people
yea meet, especially among the older class of
the community will give their unhessitating
endorsement to more than one of these novel
imperiqltions :

DISAPPOINTAIRST.—When yuu put on your
'heel and stockings, if you complete dressing
one foot before commencing the other, it is a
sign that you will be disappointed.
DEATH IN TUN FANITLT.—The breakiag of a

susoeptible to human feeling. IWhilo the
young Romeo was looking frotif the par.

the fair ones, he thought he experienced
& sensation a; it satnething was upon his
head. Raising his hint he found to his
delight that some young lady had acci
dentally dropped her cambric' handker
chief from the box directly above.
Our young Romed began to discover
that here was an opportunity to display
his gallantry. He arose, and, after pri
vately pressing the cambric to his lips,
'extended it, delicately secured between
the tips of his fingera,for the fair claimant
to take - possession of. At this moment a
head protruded over the gallery above,
and exclaimed in a low but distinct tone :
•"Chuck it up, soh !"
The young nun suddenly raised his
Ayes, and beheld ibe blackest wench that
white man ever laid eyes on. It is need
less to add that he dropped almost lifeless
into his seat, and a fsvored• few who
chanced to witness this ludicrous scene,
burst into uncontrollable laughter.

SlSTWisme fir s Draft.
Since the authorities have disoOvered
that, men who are drafted and unfit for
soldiers may 'yet be made servo-their
country as hospital rit!trsea and in various
other capacities, I have reflected deeply
upon the subject and am at length ena
bled to submit the following suggestions,
which the government is at liberty to
adopt or reject as it pleases :
It is a well . known.fact that blind men
have the sense of touch more fully devel
oped than those who can See. Draft a few
regiments of blind men to feel the pia
tion and strength of the enemy. No ex
emptions 'granted on the ground that
they "can't, see it."-
Blind' men and lame: men might be
drafted together, the blind-men to carry
the lame on their back on going into
battle.
Men who have lost one or even both
their arms should no longer be lastempt.
GovernMent is prepared 'to arm any quan
tity of men on the shortest possible no
tice.
Idiots should not be debarred the priv
ilege of serving their country in the make
when we have so many among our gene
rals.
Draft all in the lunatic asylums—the
madder men get the better they fight.
Dumb men ought to make the Most
serviceable soldiers ; a they can't cry
"quarter." their motto must be "oe our.
render."
It is absurd to exempt fat men, they are
so well calculated to fill up the depleted
ranks of the army. If you want to °rush
the enmity by precipitating upon 'them
large bodies of troops, let fat. men be
drafted' by all means.
Confirmed drunkards have been ob
jected to because they are not. so anxious
to whip the enemy as they are to 'have
them treat, A regiment of them armed
with rifle whiskey, and sustained by a bit
tery _delirium tremens, would do great
execution—to somebody.
I have not heretofore' favored the idea
of drafting the other sex, but a brigsde-of
old maids would certainly be useful in re.
pulsing the enemy. They are sometimes
.good in en attack.
By all mearurdraft Congressmen. They
might do a little good in the army, and
they are of no possible good where they
are.
Elitora of war newspapers should be
drafted in a body. They have penned
war articles so long, that they themselves
should, bii pence(' by the "Articles of
War."
Conscript 'nil lawyers—their' chirges
would tie most disastrous to the enemy. _
A certain maiden lady was twiceitfj her
life time engaged to be married, and twine
some unforeleeiteverit interposed to de
stroy her hopes of matrimouiatblisi.-•-•
Here was a Bad case. Time begin to wrin
kle her fair brow. and 'there were'nci,new
suitors to offer themselves. To add to her
distress , she - became sick, "nigh - unto
death." The jun kir curate .of the parish
—bashful youth—was sent for. The sick
room was filled with sympathising neigh
bors' when the young divine entered; Stitt
after some remarks, proceeded to reed a
portion of Scripture. He fell upon the
chapter where the woman of Samaria is
introduced: When he read the Words,
"Go call thy husband," the sick - unman
groaned a little. but when he uttered the
words, ,"The woman answered and laid, I
have no husbesid," the old lady roes up.
right in her bed, her eyes flashing fire. as
she squeaked out the following :
"I ain't a going to stand yes taunt', if
you are a preacher I Get out of the house

MANY FACTS IN tiVALL NUM.—The
number of languages spoken is 2,064. The
number of. men is equal to the number of
women. The average of human life is
about 33 years. One quarter die' before

Persons, one rarely reaches the age of one
hundred years, and not more than one in
five hundrpd will roach the age of eighty.
There are on earth 1,000,000,000 inhabi

year, 91,824 die every day, -7,789 evert

are balanced by an equal number of
births. The married are. longer . lived
than the single. Tall men Ilia longerlonger

chances or life previous to the age of fifty
years. but fewer after" than men. The

The fonrteeia thousand rebel troops
which • garrisoned Charleston have, in
obedience to the rebel policy of concen
tration, fallen back to the mortliward.
Those who believe that the evacuation of
r Charleston indicates the despair of the
retool /eallers, are in great' error. This
evacuation of the coast is "miching male
"Cho ;" ltmeans mischief. ; It Means that,
battle is to be given to Sherman ; that all
the scattered forces of the enemy are. to
be drawn - together, to offer stubborn and
bloOdy resistance to Grant. Though. :the
capture of Charleston will be of incalcula
ble:cane to 111 in future. it at present
is mare glorions thantseful. We are but

these minor triumphs will be eclipsed.
