A glaring case of cruel treatment was found. near St. Asaph junction yesterday afternoon. As several men were -waiking out in that direction they found a little boy about five years old, who proved to be the little son of Mr. George Meade of this city, tied to a telegraph pole hand and foot. He had been in this uncomfortable condi- tion for some hours and was grea:ly fright- ened. When the ropes with which the child was tied were cut he explained that he had been persuaded to accompany two colored boys named Newman and that they had tied him to the pole and left him there. The little fellow was brought to his home in this city and turned over to his father, who went in search of the negro boys. Lt did not take him long to fini one of them, named Rodier Newman, and he wasyturned over to the police. This morning the case came up for trial be sell for $125.

Ledger. *When McKissick’s Cavalry were in win- ter quarters in front of Richmond, Va., in 1864, the following amusing incident took place: Lieut. Jack Palmer was lecturing Tom Rodgers for hurting his horse's back. As was his custom on such occasions, he used language that was more forcible than elegant. While the lieutenant was pouring the vials of wrath on poor Tom, Frank Millwood interrupted him by saying: “Lieu- tenant, what do you think of Dr. Dogan?” “I think he fs a first-rate fellow—a perfect gentleman,” answered the lieutenant. “I sdcn’t. know so well about that,” replied Frank. “Why so?” inquired the lieutenant, “Well,” says Frank, “I got a letter from home, and it is a certain fact that they tcok. two soldiers to Union the other day on the train, and Dr. Dogan wouldn't let ‘thent-be buried in the village churchyard.” . At- thif the Neutenant redoubled his anathemas, and swore he had a notion to send a detail of men home to kill the doc- tor. “What object did he have?” continued the lieutenant. “Why,” says Frank, “be- cause they weren't dead.” Just then Frank beat a hasty retreat under a shower of epithets that were more noted for their force than elegance, and poor Tom caught it worse.

Benjamin Andrews of 3. niver- sity. In two volumes. With more. than three hundred and Mlustrations. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons. Contemporaneous history has a peculiar charm that cannot be en‘irely explained on the ground of its probable accuracy. There is an undoubted taste among modern read- ers for recitals of familiar facts, and its statification is doubled when the narration is embellished with portraits and other pictures. Such a work is thet of President Andrews, which first appeared in sericl form in Scribner's Magazine, and is now published in book form, enlarged one-third, with a handred new illustrations. The a¢ ditions enrich the work mzterially, bringing it practically up to date, and including many episodes that promise to have a marked influence cn the national history. The release from the restraints and limit tions of a magazine serial has ma sible a more complete and conne rative of the topics than mark presentation. Writing for a pu ally familiar with most, if not events described, Prof. Andrews mere difficult than that of the ordinary historian, who is at best subject 1o seve criticism. He is almost in th the editor of a great journal, drawing upon himscif the fire of many tious fault- finders. But be is writing for posterity as well as for this generation, and is perform- ing a beneficent duty by giving permanent embodiment io th impressions of the time. n of a century henc s tale of America dur- 3 position «¢ y, whe most im but it ha cause of its very calm that progress and prosperity that the time cov- Andrews’ valuable work is : thus ted. has begotten PROM THE 1OUs TORTE ‘ in Ol We ‘i rming, hand y so when ¥ somely as in this volume. tures add greatly 10 the the book.

Write From Harper's Round T: A Cincinnati grocer’s house found that cranberries had risen to $6 per bushel. The purchasing clerk immediately sent this nove by the firm's .eamster: “One hundred bush- els per Simmons.” (Simmons was the driy- er’s name.) The well-meaning correspond- ent thought the scrawl read: “One hundred bushels persimmons,” and boys were straightaway set to work, for persimmons were plentiful. The wagon made its pearance next day loaded down with eighty bushels. The remaining twenty bushels were to follow next day, and when the cor- respondent found out his mistake he aneri- ly demanded why the order did not read by Simmons. An English gentleman, in writing to a Lincolnshire friend, mentioned the | kindness to him, and said he send him a suitable “equivale friend read the word “elephant,” and im- mediately bullt a handsome barn for the reception of his elephantine majesty. But much to his surprise a barrel of oysters was the “equivalent.” — Plainiy.
