It will he remembered that at the battle of Fredericksburg, De cember 1.?, I Mil, the Conl'eder a:es were driven out ul' die city mi the 12tli, and did not recapture the town and enter it again till the Ititli. On the 12th the last tegi nient in leave the plaee was the J I st Mississippi, and the last man, who brought tip the rear, being closely pressed by the invading troops, was P.uck l)eninan. He was a Mississippi bear hunter, a superb specimen of manhood, tall and straight, broad-shouldered and deep-chested. With the eye . of an eagle and a voice like a bull i of P.ashan.he was rough in manner ; as a bear and tender in heart as a woman.

C. principal street and shells from the seige guns across the river were bursting over the housetops, Buck Deninau was kneeling behind a house-corner to take a last shot. Just as his finger irimpled on the trigger a little baby girl, three years old, toddled out an alley, and witlt a Newfoundland dog ran after a big shell that had spent its force and was rolling along the pavement ihe dog snarl ing at it and the little girl clapping her hands in glee. To rescue the child from such deadly peril was Buck's only thought. Without pausing to consider he rushed to her and gathered her to his bosom. Next there was nothing to do but run, which he speedily did, pur sued by shot and shell, holding the baby w ith one arm and trailing his gun with the other, as he sped up Marye's Heights to join his re treating comrades. And there be hind that historic stone wall and in the adjacent trenches Irom the 12th till the Kith of the cold December month while the shells were shrieking and the storm of battle raged- Buck fought I'.urnside and nursed the baby girl by turns. Never was child so cared iV.r. There were other nut.s as fierce and bear-like as he w ho took turns palling and soothing her engaged in sharp rivalry her under their Couriers were sent procure milk and t' sacked for a daiiu And so the days a; . on. When the Coi,: captured the city on the . the 2 1 st Mississippi was ti to enter, and what happencl they passed with yells and sin ing through the streets may best told by Buck himself, as ported by Adjutant Snles, who published the story : "I was holding the baby high, Adjutant, with both arms, w hen above all ; the racket I hear a woman scream. The next thing I knew 1 w as cov ered with calico and she fainted on ; my breast. 1 caught her before she fell, and laying her dow n gent ly put her baby on her bosom.1 She w as m o s t the prettiest thing I ever looked at, and her eyes were idiut; and - and - 1 hope C.od'll forgive inc. bin I kissed her Hist once."

She looks at herself in the glass: If it happens she's worried, or pecvMt ! mad. She looks at herself in the gla lit fact, il she's pretty or il ;.hc is pla:n. If she's ever so mode A or ever so plain, If she's wealing a rainy-day sk u or a tram. She looks at herself in the g!a . If her age it i-. twenty or fifty or mure. She looks at herself in the glas; If she lives on an income or works in a store. She looks at herself in the glass; If her hat is on crooked, don't worry or fret, Or if by some chance on iai:.: straight it is set, It it's not on at all, it's a pretty sale bet, She looks at herself in the glass. If a maiden's expecting her sweetheart to call. She looks at herself in the glass; And after they've said their good bye in the hall She looks at herself in the glass; I ler cheeks they are crimson, her hair is a mess, Her collar is wilted, as you may well guess, And the print of an arm marks the waist of her dress, When she looks at herself in the glass. A preacher once thought he would spring a suprise, On women who look in a glass; And he said : "Now, all of those sisters please n.e Who have not looked to-day in a glass?" One sister alone stood up in her pew Her hair was awry, her clothing askew. The preacher said : "SiMer, well next time pray do, Just look at yourself in the glass. A woman to the Holy Father went -- Confession of sin was her intent; And so, her niisdenteaners great and small, She faithfully rehearsed them all; And chief in her category of sin, She owned that she a tale bearer had been, I lad carried a bit of scandal up and dow n To all the long-tongued gossips in the town The 1 loly bather for her other sin (ranted the absolution asked of him, But while for all the t est he pardon gave, He told tins olietise was very grave. And that to do fit penance she must jo Out by the wayside, where the thistles grow, And gather the largest, ripest i.ne, Scatter it seed,, and that when this w.is done, She must come back another day, To tell hint his commands she did obey. The woman, thinking litis a penance light, Hastened to do ins will that ery night, l:eeling glad she had escaped so well, Net d.iy but when she went the priest ,o tell, The priest sat still and heard her story through, Then said, "There's Mineming still to do: Those little thistle seeds which you have sown, 1 bid you go re gather every one." Tiie woman said, "But father, 'twould be in vain. To try to gather up those seeds again; The winds have scattered them both Jar and wide, Over the meadow, vale and mountain side." I he ' . her atiiwered, "Now I hope trout this, 1 '.! ! on I have taught you will not miss You dinot gather back the scattered seeds, !; ch far and wide will grow to noxious w eeds; Nor can the mischief once by scandal sow n, By any penance be again undone.
