A Very Apt Reply.
A soldier of this city who served with
distinction as colonel of a Michigan
regiment, was approached yesterday by
as officer who supports Johnson, with a
suggestion that, as military men, they
ought to pay their respects to President
Johnson upon hie arrival at Toledo.
" You may, bat I will not," replied
the Michigan colonel, "for I have no
respect for.him."
" But," quoth the Johnsonian, " you
will go with us, and show your respect
for Grant and Farragut, who accompany
him, won't you ?"
"My dear sir," replied the Colonel,
"there was once an old lady who kept a
boarding house for laborers. One morn
ing she came across a piece of tainted
beef, which she purchased cheap, and
boiled it for dinner. It ' smelt to heav
en' and not a boarder would touch it.
That evening she sliced and fried it, but
it wouldn't do—it still smelt. The next
morning she made hash of it, but it
smelt louder and louder, when a boarder,
who could stand it no longer, spoke his
mind: "Look here, old lady, you may
bile it, you may fry it, or you may 'Tile
good potatoes by hashin' it with 'em,
but that meat stinks, and you can't crowd
it down me in any shape." "Now,"
continued the very positive Colonel,
" you may take Johnson boiled, fried,
stewed or sandwiched between two as
good potatoes as Grant and Farragut,
and he stinks. You can't crowd him
I down me at any price."
The conversation closed quite abrupt
ly.—Toledo Blade.
THE END OF A QIIARREL.—"We could
soon finish you up," said some lemons
to a bottle of carbonate of soda. " I
could soon take the taste out of you,"
answered the soda. "Let us try our
strength," said the lemons. " With all
my heart," said the soda; and to work
they went, trying with all their might
to extinguish each other; fizz—went
the lemons ; fizz—went the soda; and
they went, on fizzing till there was noth.
ing of either of them left, and only a
nauseous puddle showed where tie fight
had been.
t The lawyer who stuck upon his
office door, "Gone to dinner; back in
ten minutes," might as well have added,
" I am killing myself by bolting my food
and, then trying to digest it over my pa
pers ; at forty-five I shall probably be
either a broken-down invalid .or a luna
tic ; but, in the meantime . , I am very
much at your serviCeT There is also a

" Pnt him -down in the bill 1"
Two fellows at a tavern, having sum
moned the waiter to furnish-them with
driiik, - ;the poor man had scarcely enter-_
ed tii6 bar when he fell down in a fit of
apoplbxy. "He's dead I" exclaimed one.
" He'll come to," replied the other.
Dead for five hundred 1" said the first..
".Done,"-retorted the second. The noise
of the fall and the confusion which. fol
lowed brought up the landlord, who
called out to "fetch the Doctor." " No,
no t we must have no interference," ex
claithed these wretched worshippers of
the Rum-god. " There's a - bet depend
ing." A bet depending 1 A bet against
a life of a man 1 a bet against a soul 1
Who but -a drunkard could conceive of
such hard-hearted villainy ?_ W hat de
mon from the lower pit but the " Whis
key Demon" could inspire men with
such diabolical frenzy ? " But sirs,"
said the landlord, " I shall lose a valu
able servant." What think yOu was'

a fearful uncertainty? Prompt relief

more through those swollen veins ; might
resuscitate that now well nigh breath
less body—but " no, no, there must be
no interference." Never mind his value ;
as to his soul let him settle that account
with-God. " We'll pay you for his ser
vices. Never mind, never mind, you
can put him down in the bill." Yes, this
is what they said. "Tut him down in
the bill 1" ah I fear there will be some
'ffretulful items put down in the bill,
when God comes to reckon at the-judge
went with the drunkard and the drunk
ard maker ; when " the Books shall be
opened." Even now • the Recording
angel is noting down in that huge journ-.
al some dreadful charges, facts and
figures written in tears and groans and
blood, that will form bills of account
from which the boldest debtor may well
start back aghast; aye, they will stand
one day as counts in bills of indictment
before God's dread Tribunal, which will
cause the guilty culprits to call for the
rocks and hills to fall upon them.
Oh methinks I see that awful scroll
unfolded on which is written, like the
prophet's roll ". within and without, la
mentations and mourning and woe," and
when 'tie asked by the Judge of all the
earth, " Who caused all this woe and
crime and death. Who slew all thess ?"
The answer will be, the grand present
ment of that grandest of juries t "These
are the fruits of drunkenness and drunk
ard making. These are the well authen:
ticated records of Intemperance, and for
these the drunkard, and those who made
him so are responsible." .
" Put it-down in the bill " that this
fearful vice with the horrid traffic that
sustains it, "has made wives, widows;
children, orphans ; fathers, fiends, and
all of them paupers and beggars." " Put
it down in the bill r —write it in the
debtor column over against the name of
each drunkard and each rumaeller of
that apostate world that is now to be
judged that " it has cut down youth' in
its vigor; manhood in its strengthosnd
age in its weakness. It has broken the
father's heart, bereaved the doting moth
er, extinguished natural affection, erased
conjugal,love, blotted out filial attach
ment, blighted parental hope and brought
down mourning age in sorrow to the
grave."
" Put it down in the bill," that has
" burned up man, consumed woman, de
tested life, cursed GOd, despised Heaven,
and defied the judgements' of the great
day." And then as the awful indict
ment is read out in the presence of the
assembled universe and confirmed by
the testimony of ten thousand times ten
thousand witnesses, from every land on
our globe, the judge will pronounce but
the sentence of strict and terrible jus
tice, ass he says: " When I was an
hungered ye gave me no meat ; bat fed
my poor with tears and curses; when I
was thirsty ye gave me no drink, that
would quench thirst, but poured a boil

INFLUENCE OF AFFECTION.—Tbere is a
good deal of canting about involuntary
affection in the world, and all that ; but
a young lady should never let such fool
ish notions enter her head. She should
allow the pride of conscious strength of
mind to keep her above every foolish,
vain and nonsensical preference towards
this precious fop, and that idle attend
ant on a lady's will. She should lay it
up in her heart as an immutable princi
ple that no love can last if not based
upon a right and calm estimation of
good qualities ; or at least, that if the
object upon which it is lavished be not
one whose heart and whose head are
both right, misery will surely be her
portion. A sudden preference for a
stranger is a very doubtful kind of pref
erence, and the lady who allows herself
to be betrayed into such a silly kind of
affection, without knowing a word of the
man's character or hie position is guilty
of indiscretion which not only reflects
unfavorably upon her good sense, but
argues badly for the nature and ground
work of that affection.
liar Be content to attend to duties as
.they arise ; take them as they are sent
by Providence. Every moment brings
its own responsibilities ; and man's wis
dom, in this world of sin, of sorrow and
of death, consists in cheerfully using
present comforts and diligently attend
ing to present duties. Let the crumbs,
the fragments of time, be gathered up,
that nothing be lost.
car You are a coward if afraid to tell
the truth when you should do so. You
area coward if you insult the weak.
You are a coward if afraid to do right,
if you shrink from defending your opia
ion, from maintaining that which you
know to be just and good ; and you are
especially a coward if you know certain
things of yourself and care not to own
them to yourself.
