“Lord! “’on’t tllcybe Surprisa-d.’-
The following story was told by General
Slocum in a speech to the independent demo-
aratic committee in Brooklyn just after the
late election :-
“A few months after I was sent west,
during the late war, I met one of the most
accomplished generals who ever wore the
American uniform — I refer to General
McPherson. We had been at West Point
together, and this was our first meeting
since we had left the academy. In talking
over the scenes through which we had passed
since we had parted at West Point, our
conversation turned upon the battle of
Pittsburgh Landing, where )IcPllemon acted
as chief of staff'to General Grant. McPher-
son described to me the disasters of that great
battle—90f. how he had been compelled from
ilOlll‘ to hour during the whole day to be the
comer of bad news to his chief. It was a
succession of reverses from morning until
night. When night came on and it was be
coming too dark for the enemy to continue
the fight, McPherson rode up to Grant, who
coolly said to him, ‘Wcll Mac, how do things
look I“ ‘Bad enough General. We have
lost, I think, about one half of our artillery,
ind atleltst a third of the infantryf Our
-iuc is broken in several places, and we are
pushed back as you see, pretty near the bank
)f the river.” Grau‘t made no reply, and
.‘sIcPherson becoming :1 little impatient, final-
ly said to him, ‘Wcll, General, under these
:ircumstnnccs what do you intend to do ?‘
‘Do, Why, Isllall reform the lines and attack _
them at daybreak. Lord! won’t they be
Turprisc l.’ Grant executed his plan to the
'letter, and before 9 o‘clock next. morning the
-ne_my mere flying in every direction.
Whatever may be a man‘s occupation, if I
{now of no better motto for him to 'adopt
2han the words of General’Grant : “Re-
’orm the lines and altar-k them again at day
)rcnk."
An Original Plan of Travel.
“Speaking of character,” said Nicholas,
.vith a vague idea that he was continuing the
Tonvcrsntion in a logical way, “did it ever
recur to you that. I haven‘t any character—
lny flavor, so to speak? The fact is I’m just
1 pudding without any sauce—nutritious
:nougll, perhaps, but confoundedly insipid.
A woman would never get tired of you.
You have as many flavors as a drug-shop."
“Probably," said 0102011, “and mostly un-
’ )leasant ones; and now let me tell you a
thing to lay up in yohr memory for your ever-
lasting comfort. Nothing wears like bread
lnd butter, and sensible women know it.
These highly flavored and variously flavored
men are just those who play the devil with
women’s livqs. They are usually selfish, vol-
ttilc, unreliable; lull so far as you need flu-
vor you'll get if. Travel will help you to it.
Age and a voyage across the sell improv T the
lavor of who, they say, and I don‘t sec wily
uhcy sllmlldn‘t be good for men."
“ fell," said Nicholas, “I don‘t see the fun
of travel. You never know what you're g0-
ing to do.”
“But you have your plans, my boy? who!
are you talking about?"
“Yes, I have two or three plans." said
Nicholas, a broad smile oversprcading his
handsome face. “If I don't like it, I shall
:ome back. That’s one plan; and then you
ace I’ve had no end of old ladies who have
been to‘scc me with their daughters. It seems
is if all the boobicsanll bores had been to
Europe. One of 'cm says: ‘Ob, Mr. Min-
turn, you must think Of me when you are at
the Devil‘s Bridge;’ and another says: ‘You
must think of me when you are in the (‘41th
combs ;’ and another says: ‘You must think
of me when you are at the Tomb of Napole-
on;’ and one gushing creature says I really
must think of her when I’m on thr- llhigi.
301’" just go to those places and think of
those women, though what good it does a
woman to have a fellow think of her in the
Catacombs, is more than I know."
“Well, that‘s all original plan of travel,
anyway," exclaimed Glezcn, with :l hearty
laugh. “Talk about your not having any
flavor? Why, that‘s delicious.
to have no company ?"
‘INOITY .
“And you sail tomorrow ‘3" '
“Yes, I believe that's the arrangement."
“And these are your plans?"
“Yes,” responded Nicholas. "I’m just go-
ing to improve my flavor by visiting the Cat-
acombs, and meditating on females."—From
“Nicholas .lfinturn," Dr. Hollqnd‘s new story
in. Sol-[blurb Monthly for December.
Mr. )Iorriscn the leader of the democratic
House during the first session Of the present
Congress, has learned a thing or two. He
was one of the candidates for speaker, but in
the democratic caucus withdrew his name,
with the significant comment that he realized
that “it was much againstllis canvass that he
was the only one Of the candidates who had
been a Union soldier.”

Has wrought his task for me ;

Of magic tracery.
[ere lifts an Alpine summit, steep
As is the heavenly stair,
I wayside croso below the path,
But not a pilgrim there ;
10 sad face of humanity,
No agony of prayer. .
Ind here, before a hinelylake,
A fringé'ofroeds and fern ;,
.cross the 'water's‘ crystal chill
No dying sunsets burn,
.'ou hear not on that rushy shore
The call of drake or tern.
H no lies a crowd of broken boughs.
A windfall in the Wood : 1
i we wild and wandering hurricane
llath wrecked these solitudes :
But on that tangled dreariness
.\0 living step intrudes.
And here is Arctic waste and Woe ;
A glacier’s mighty face,
dajestic in its awful march,
:‘low seaward from its place.
Be loath, that frown of solemn death
There lives no human trace.
But slowly from the joyful East
ascends the dawning sun :
Before his look of light and life
The magic is undone :
1‘ :e graceful pictures on the pane
All vanished, one by one.
.las ! must all the songs I sing,
The traceries of my brain,—
l‘he little stories and and glad,-—-
Be uttered all in vain ?
And vanish when the Master comes,
Like pictures on the pane ?:
r will they, in some kindly heart
- Remembered, sing and shine.

Not fleeting frost, are mine ;
I love not to be quite forgot :
To die and leave no sign. -

an it is easy to do. Their lives.~ are. mo-
-)tonous,—too much so for the best health 0f

_ nch this monotony could be broken and
. eered by the constant habit of talking with
ch other, they would grasp at the slightest
ance of a conversation. The elements of
3 man life are the same for ever ; any'oone
art holds in itself the whole, can give all
lugs to another, can bear all~ things for
