The Little Southern Soldier Boy.
George Wilson was just ten years of
age, still in "knickerbockers' and had
but recently entered into the dignits of
short hair, his mother, after much .per-
suasion, having hnally consented to
the cutting of his flaxen curls, in which
the sunshine was wont to tangle f&elf.
He was a bright, active boy, thorough-
ly alive to the momentous events of the
times in which he lived and a general
favorite.
After the battle, he was among the
first at the bulletin board, to learn its
result, and many a time as the heart

elf.
Onedavhe and his "factatum." as
his colored bov. Frank, was called, met
in solemn conclave, and decided to run
awav. and follow the army. Being too
voung to enlist, they decided upon the
novfd nlan ot becommsr markers, or
messengers, in fact anything by which
they could reach the army.
George's parents were refugees in the
upper portion of South Carolina, and
the camp to which the boys proposed
croinur was on the sea-coast, near
Charleston, in order to reach which
necessitated many miles of travel
!Cirher distance nor the lack of monev.
sx
however, daunted them; and so one
hritrht moraine George put a chance of
clothes in his green baize school-satch-
el, and Frank tied his in a red bandana
hanHk-prrhiPf which was his mothpr
ehiftf trlorr. and the two set out on
their travels.
O '
Knowing that they would be discov-
ered in the attempt to board the train
which left the small town, they walked
to the next station, a distance of five
miles, and as the train was leaving the
depot jumped on the rear platform.
At the South the stations are quite re
mote from each other, and the conduc
tors, after closing the rear door, seldom
open it until the next station is reached.
In this way the boys made the ent m
trip, and reached the desired haven.
By the time they arrived their appe
tites were in pretty keen condition,
having exhausted all of the biscuit and
bits of ham which Were sandwiched
between their clothing. The teams
ters and servants of the officers gave
them something to eat, and George wa

Now George had always been noted
for telling the truth, but on this occa
sion flatly denied that his name was
uGeorge Wilscn," and pretended not to
know the general. Soon, however,
Frank made his appearance and George ,
seeing that f :rther deception was use
less, begged the general to give him a
place. This of coarse was refused.
beneral Capers telegraphed bis distract
ed parents, and placing tlie two run
aways under guard until they could be
sent home, he questioned them as to
their intentions. George tola what his
ambition was, and Frank with both
hands down in his pockets, and every
tooth in his head showing, said, "I wuz
gwine to jine de cavalry, Mas' Gineral,

They arrived at home on the day of
the capture of Columbia, and in the ex
citement of the hour George (in whose
breast the military ardor was not yet
extinguished) again left for the scene
of action.
He joined a command as marker, in a
North Carolina regiment, and during
the last battle of the war, which was
fought in North Carolina, as he was
standing with his little red flag in his
hand, a man just in front of him was
shot down. Ia an instant the little
soldier boy threw away his flag, seized
the gun and fought art day, tin m near
its close, when a strav bullet struck
him in the breast and he fell. A sol
dier in his rear, who had a son about
his age, picked the wounded boy up in
his arms, and carried him from the
field.
A surgeon was called, but the case
was hopeless, and as the little fellow
lay upon the rude hospital bed, with
the death damp rti his golden tresses,
and a deep, earnest meaning in the
depths of his blue eyes, he said to the
soldier who had rMrne him trotn the
it- i lit- m . i
field, uMy name is George Wilson; my
father is in the Army or Virginia, but
my mother is in Anderson, bouth Car
olina; I want you to write to mamma
and ask her to forgive me for running
away, but tell her I did my duty as my
boy heart told me to do. 1 could not

on which the soldier, through
his
blinding tears, was writing,
give me
that, and let me kiss it, so that my dar
ling mother shall receive my last kiss.
As he kissed it, and handed it back to
the faithful soldier, the blue eyes clos
ed, and the little soldier boy went to
answer the roll-call in heaven. Mrs.

Troublesome Company, Sometimes.
We have been having company at
our house for a week past. It, or she
has gone now, and we are so absolutely
ana unteigneaiy nappy in consequence
thereof that we have been having a
little jollification this evening. The
children were allowed to sit up an hour
longer than usual, ana l made them
some pop corn balls and taffy.
Mrs. Dane opened the piauo and sang
as she has not sung tor a year,aud said
never a word when I smoked two cigars
in the parlor
This is not very flattering to the
"company but it is ' the Gospel truth
all the same.
We are fond of company, my wife
and I. We have a pretty little home
i it-
a well trained servant, and live in one
of Boston's prettiest suburbs, so we al
i t
ways have various ways ot amusing
our friends. But the company just de-
parted was not to be amused. She
came on Monday morning withou
having gone
through
the little cour-
tesy of informing us of her intended
arrival. She is not an intimate friend
of the family, and simply made our
house a stopping place as a matter of
convenience to herself. This would
have been all right had she not made
herself a source of infinite inconven
ience to all of us.
My wife greeted her with great kind
ness "and cordiality and took her at once

The bell rang seventeen times that
forenoon, and here are
some
of the
causes thereof: Our visitor wanted
the bed aired, the room newly swept,
the mirror polished, the window sash
raised, the window sash lowered, the
furniture changed about, writing ma
terials, her letter posted, and divers
other things.
At dinner she wanted tea when we
tad coffee, and warm bread when we
had cold. She said that there was too
much salt in the soup, and too little in
the cravv. She obiected to oenrjer in
anything, and asked for pie tor desert
when we had guddmg.
Our sitting room wa3 too hot; then
it was too cold. The baby cried and
gave the guest a headache. My wife
applied remedies, and the patient made
a pretence of fainting.
ouch a week as it was ! That wo
man made us all utterly miserable.
Sanitary Hints.
Try the juice of a lemon in a cup of
trong coffee without sugar as a remedy
or sick headache.
If you are troubled with headache,
ry the simultaneous application of
hot water to the feet and back of the
neck.- .
rf soft clothes dipped in hot water
and applied to the eruption caused by
poison ivy does not kill it, sugar of lead
water will.
A peck of powdered charcoal in shal-
ow dishes in a cellar will absorb much
of the bad smell, and a bushel of lime
much of its dampness.
For evident reasons nurses in a sitk
room should not sit or stand too near
the patient, and above all things they
should avoid talking when leaning over
a sick person.
To clean looking-glasses: Sponge
down the glass with gum and water,
equal parts, then dust down with whi-
ti.'g and finish with an old soft silk
handkerchief.
Take plenty of sleep during sleeping
hours. Spend at least eight hours in
the bed, and take care during cold
weather that the temperature of the
bedroom is maintaned at 50 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Iodide of potassium is said to quickly
relieve the dull headache so often ac-
companying an ordinarv cold in the
head. 1 wo grains may be dissolved in
a glassful of wate which is to be taken
in little sips during half an hour.
For burns apply the white of an
egg and sweet oil, equal parts, beaten
together. You may know the fire is
out when the burned flesh turns red
and quits running water. When the
fire is out scorch a Hnen rag, grease it
with mutton tallow, and bind it on
to heal the burn.
It is the general belief that an egg
is equal to one quarter pound of meat
and that every sick person can eat eggs
Not so. Many, especially those of
nervous or billions temperament, own
not eat tnem, and to such, eggs are
injurious. Another fallacy in regard
to diet is, that because milk is an im
portant article of food it must be forced
upon a patient. Food that a person
cannot endure will not cure.
She Was Used to Babies,
AND NOW SHE KEVEB AWAKENS

"Say," said a woman wearing a faded
yellow dress, as she came out of
western Dakota house which stood
near the road, as we drove up, "you
didn t see no young uns down the
road, I reckon? "No." "Couple o
mine missin' again, I guess," and she
surveyed a good sized flock who were
playing around the house. "Or, hold
on, I guess there aiu t either." She
began singling them out with her fin
ger, saying: "One, two, three stan

Now a wag who was present follow-

fairly ruining things in his section,
and to the wag who meekly said lie
had heard of poke root as a sure cure
he fairly laughed defiance, declaring he
had tried it and lost every hog he had.

pullingfhe Hon. Josiah Turner's coat
tail atMorganton in 1860? It was in
this wise as Ir. Turner himself relates
it. Says he :

a private soldier got aboard. The sol
dier was drunk. The captain ordered
him to the second class car but he re
fused to go, saying that he was a New

Massachusetts republican and that they
were only sending them to Morganton
to scare the white folks into voting
with the negroes, etc., etc. At Mor

The necessity of always turning to
the right was fully demonstrated yea--terday
evening by a collision of two
buggies on Craven street. Two young
gentlemen were in one buggy and two
young ladies in the other. The young
men turned to the right but the ladies
turned to the left and brought about the
collision, which, fortunately for the
ladies, resulted in upsetting the buggy
of the young men wno were not in fault.
No one was hurt and no damage of any
consequence done, but such carelessness
might at sometime result seriously.
