"No, you Don't I". It is known that, during the first two years of the war, many a poor fellow lost an arm or leg at the hand3 of the surgeon -which could have been saved with a little care. The medical depart ment were "practicing," with a vengeance, and it was useless for the mangled victims of the battle-field to protest. The night succeeding the last awful day of Shiloh, a boy from Memphis, a private in a Ten nessee regiment of cavalry, was brought into the operating-room of one of the hospitals, and stretched upon the table for examination. A bullet had gone through his thigh, and the sur geon, after a hasty glance at the wound, called for his instruments, at the same time directing several attendants to assist at the amputation of the limb. But he had reckoned without his host. The injured man began to plead for his leg, begging to be permitted to die even iu pref erence to losing it. The doctor paid no attention to his protests, but ordered his assistants to do their duty. They sprang forward, and at the same time the patient drew from his bosom a six-shooter, saying: "Now, doctor, I've been respectf ul and hum ble with you, and it don't do any good. Listen to me: the first man that lays a hand upon me to take that leg off, will get his brains blown out I" The surgeon stepped forward, knife in hand; an assistant seized the left hand, and received the weight of his pistol on his temple, measuring his length upon the floor. Esculapius heard the "click" of the hammer, and found the muzzle within an inch of his ear, while in calm, deter mined tones came the words : "No you don't !" "Carry him out !" growled the doctor; "let him die, and be d d to him !" But he didn't die. He got well, served through the war in Forrest's command, and when I saw him last he told me the story, and slapping his thigh, remarked : "That's just as good a log as any man's -leg, and worth a cord of cork legs."

North State Washing Machine Best in Use. Patented October 157, 18G7, by the Subscribers and Manufacturers, at Charlotte, N. C. If you need anything of the kind, you will en courage home industry by purchasing one cf our Machines. It is easy to operate, occupies a small space and does not injure articles to be washed. It is strong and substantial, and does its work in a short time. It is an actual improvement en others of similar out aide appearance. In the North State Washing Machine the Clothes are placed in hot suds and while thus immersed with the air excluded, the Machine is operated, giving the Garments a rolling, rubbing pressure, and at the same time they receive the solvent power of the soap. The Clothes are not impaired by the use of this Machine. You can make money by saving the wear and tear which your Clothes are subjected to by washing and beating in the old way. This Machine gives the advantage of using boiling euds and of confining the steam. It can be worked pitting or standing. It is cheap. Tho price of it puts it within reach of nearly every family, and pays its cost back in the saving of garments. Try it! Try it!! Bcy It!!! Manufactured and told bv BAIINHARDT & HOUSTON. Kot 25, 18r.7.

I have had five or six different Machines since I have been a housekeeper, but always found the servants averse to use them, both ou ac count of the labor and as they say the failure to "et the "streaks of dirt" out of the clothes. This Ma chine is so easy in its operation and so perfectly cleans the clothes that I find no difficulty in getting thsra. to use it. No family ought to be without one.

Because the night must shroud the day, Shall the brave sun no more be gay ? Because chill autumn frights the bird3, Shall we distrust that spring will come ? Because sweet words are only words, Shall Love forever more be dumb? Because our blisg is fleeting bliss, Shall we who love forbear the kiss? Because those eyes of gentle mirth Must sometimes cause my heart to thrill; Because the sweetest voice on earth Sooner or later must be still ; Because its idol is unsure, Shall my strong love the less endure ? Ah, no let lovers breathe their sighs; And roses bloom and music sound, And passion burn on lips and eyes, And pleasure's merry world go round; Let golden sunshine flood the sky, And let me love or let me die !
