The Courer-<lb />| edournal of Louisville describes<lb />| .the ride as follows: The two<lb />_ bodies of soldiers were standing<lb />| face tu face, and the bullets were<lb />_ fiying thick and fast through the<lb />ir. The fight was a desperate<lb />- one, and each side seemed deter-<lb /><lb />ike<lb />a<lb /><lb />|<lb /><lb />| mined to stand its ground.<lb />_ Snuddeniy, as the fight was at its.<lb />| hotiést, a borse dashed out of the<lb />Confederate line, and started in a:<lb />direct line for the Yankee regi-<lb />ment. On the horse's back was!<lb />WE man naned English, who<lb /><lb />mieaning back in his saddle and<lb />ling with all his might in<lb />ile effort to stop his frighten-<lb />| horse. |<lb />The anima! was yellow in color,<lb />-im running took long andT<lb />gmsy jumps. The rider finally<lb />w that he could not stop the<lb />tic animal. and he made up<lb />is mind to make the best of his<lb /><lb />ation.<lb /><lb />Le leaned forward in his saddle<lb /><lb />~bi<lb /><lb />7<lb /><lb />horseTs neck, and his hands<lb />clasped the bridle near the bit.<lb />Even the riderTs ears seemed pin<lb />ned back, so great was his effort<lb />to make-himself as small as pus-<lb />sible. His face was as pale as<lb />death.<lb /><lb />The Yankees saw the horse with<lb />its rider making straigat for<lb />them. Some of ibe soldiers ceas-<lb />ed tiring, and looked excitedly at<lb />the half maddened animal fiying<lb />toward them. He reached the<lb />regiment, bat did not stop. The<lb />Federals almost fell upon each<lb />other in their efforts to get away<lb />from the horseTs heels.<lb /><lb />The animal went plunging<lb />through the centre of the line of<lb />soldiers, foaming at the mouth<lb />and with head dowa, aad then<lb />dashed on through the entire<lb />regiment, the svuldiers making<lb />way for him all dowa the line.<lb /><lb />Not a shot was fired until he<lb />had gotten out of range, and then<lb />nearly half of the regiment, who<lb />had managed to recover thems<lb />selves from their astonishment,<lb />fired at a cloud of dust rising ino<lb />the air; but the horse and rider<lb />were at a safe distances:<lb /><lb />The horse made a complete<lb />circle, returning to the Confeder-<lb />ate company in safety. When<lb />they saw their comrade had re<lb />turned withoat a scratch from his<lb />dangerous ride, they almost for-<lb />got the fight that was before them,<lb /><lb />1 bis head almost touched his<lb /><lb />and there went up a great cheer.<lb />"""" EE<lb />Her Conundrum.<lb /><lb />It is often hard to determine<lb />hit from ogood witT in the case<lb />of children. and some of their<lb />flashes of precocity seem not to<lb />be unconscivas, but rather the<lb />tragment of some remembered<lb />knowledge.<lb /><lb />A little maid of five. who had<lb />been listening quietly to the puz"<lb />zles and conundrums ofthe older<lb /><lb />'children, seemed at last to divine<lb />ithe method of their construction<lb />and, aftersome thought, asked:<lb /><lb />oWhat could you get on a very<lb />zh, steep mountain ?�<lb />The answers were ice, snow,<lb /><lb />rocks, eaglesT nests and the like,<lb />to all of which the little one per-<lb />sistently shook her head. When<lb />asked to tell the answer she tri-<lb />aumphantly cried, oNothing!�<lb /><lb />oBat why?� asged the others,<lb />in a breath-<lb /><lb />oBecause you couldnTt get up<lb />there after it,� was the demure<lb />reply. = Ps ;<lb /><lb />DonTt Want Dr. Hufham to ge to Heav-<lb /><lb />Mr. George Newell, of the<lb />Treasury Department, late a Hepn-<lb />derson.

He<lb />knew the doctor very well, but<lb />for some time had not seen him.<lb />About the beginning of the Con-<lb />vention Dr. Huffham went to<lb />Newell and without a word of<lb />greeting or preface said: ~oGeo.,<lb />I believe I will go home. I donTt<lb />feel very well. If I stay here ITll<lb />get sick. I might die. The<lb />trouble is I donTt want to go to<lb />Heaven from Washington City.<lb />The angel at the gate would ask<lb />me where I was from, and to tel!<lb />bim I came from Washington<lb />would cloud my credentials, as it<lb />has been so long since a man from<lb />this city bas gone to Heaven.<lb />George, I thing I had better g<lb />back home.�<lb /><lb />nf<lb />Breaking a Superstition,<lb /><lb />ee<lb /><lb />The death of the Cuunt Ferdi-<lb />naud de Lesseps has. revived<lb />many kindly memories of a great<lb />man, who will be remembered for<lb />his genius and enterprise when<lb />every error attaching to his name<lb />has peen forgotien.<lb /><lb />Many of the anecdotes relate to<lb />his attashment for his young<lb />family, and the care of his chil-<lb />drenTs development.<lb /><lb />A little incident was turned to<lb />account by him to banish respect<lb />for superstition. One morning<lb />at breakfast at his table, a teacup<lb />of beautiful Dresden ware was<lb />broken.<lb /><lb />oAb,� cried the countess, owhat<lb />a misfortune! Two more will<lb />now be broken: it is always so.�<lb /><lb />oAre you really so superstitious<lb /><lb />as to believe that?� asked the<lb />count.�<lb /><lb />o~T am sure of it.�T<lb /><lb />**Then let us get over with it<lb />at once,� said her husband, and<lb />seizing two cups by the handles,<lb />he dasned them together.<lb /><lb />The dismay of the countess<lb />proved that she was. not so<lb /><lb />grounded in superstition~as she),<lb /><lb />had declared, and the lesson was<lb />an ineffaceable one for the chil-<lb />dren.<lb /><lb />A Small BoyTs Answer.<lb /><lb />At a country school in England<lb />it is said that one of the exam-<lb />iners in @ general exercise wrote<lb />the word odozen� on the black-<lb />voard, and asked the pupils to<lb />each write a sentence containing<lb />the word.

JOYNER.<lb /><lb />Tae Hooker and Berna-d prize<lb />house formerly occupied by the<lb />American Tobacco Co., and which<lb />come very near capsizing some<lb />time ago, has just been forced<lb />back to original position. Mr.<lb />Cowell says there will bs no daa-<lb />ger now as the main strain and<lb />important work is oyer. They<lb />willset about now to make ic<lb />thoroughly sabstantial aud safe,<lb />Mr. Hooker said to us that they<lb />would make it thoroughly safe be<lb />fore they finished it and that<lb />braces would be put in both on<lb />the inside and outside beside they<lb />will run a donble partition on<lb />~each floor. This will add a great<lb />deal of strength to the base. We<lb />sincerely hope that the building<lb />will be pulled back and braced so<lb />that no question of doubt can<lb />arise about its safety, for several<lb />reasons, firat, we need the house<lb />and second, these gentlemen took<lb />hold and\built the house when no<lb />one else in town outside the to-<lb />b.cco trade seemed to care wheth-<lb />er there were any more hoases<lb />for taking care of tobacco erect-<lb />ed or not, and while to a cer-<lb />~tain extentit is their fault that<lb />the building is in its present coo-<lb />dition because they did not have<lb />timber epougu put init to make<lb />it substantial, yet they were inex-<lb />perienced in the motion of the<lb />house and the strength required,<lb />and left the whole matter with<lb />some one else with the result that<lb />the tenant got a very unsatifac-<lb />tory leaf factory, and the land-<lb />lords a great deai of uneasiness<lb />and unnecessary expense. And<lb />again the building of this house<lb />broke the ice in the erection of<lb />more prizeries, forthis was the<lb />first house of the kind built in<lb />Greenville by anyone outside of<lb />the tobacco men directly ister-"<lb />ested in the market, and in the<lb />first attempt to help us along bv<lb />the merchants and citizens we re-<lb />\gret to see any discouragement.<lb />So again we say let every effort<lb />be made to make the factory<lb />thorougbly substantial and let us<lb />offer every encouragement to<lb />those who seem willing and dis-<lb />posed to help us. This build-<lb />ing occupies a very prominent<lb />position from the depot.a very<lb />conspicuous position from the<lb />town and by all means in justice<lb />to the lessee and to the owners<lb />of the building themselves let<lb />the house be given a decent<lb />coat of paint, and in this con-<lb />nection also we would add that<lb />the Greenville Warehouse prop-<lb />mrs could be improved materi-"<lb /><lb />¥-<lb /><lb />For thin, cool Dress Goods go<lb />to LangTs.<lb /><lb />Miss Eva O'Hagan is visitin<lb />her uncle, Dr. C.
