Visit The Knickerbocker tells an amusing anacdote of old Peter G's going to church for the first time in his life. seems old Peter was a hale, heurty, hard bluct, of open-hearted -farmer, wlio thought wore looking after his stock and farm, than of visiting a house of worship on Sabbath day. A near neighbor, who was to miss a regular church meeting, culled on his very opposite, and thought it sacrilege Peter one day, and asked him to attend on the next Subbath, to hear Parson D.

preach, who, by the way, had built a church in the viilage. So Peter promised that he would be there the next Sunday. Punctual to the time, as Peter thought, bat a little late, he arrived at the dour, which was closed, the minister having begun. Peter knocked at the door. Some one sitting near opened it.

Iu walked Poter, with a blunt "How de do? how de do?" and look-1 ing up at the minister, said, "Sir, how de do?" and walked up the aisle, spoke to every one whom he knew. When his friend who invited him, rose up to seat him in I his bini pew, he grasped him by hand, asking with a loud voice, "how are you, and bow are yours?" which made such at unusual commotion, that congregation was in one titter during the sermor. This was his first and last visit to Parson D's4 church. He caid they were the most unsociable set of people he had: ever seeu, when they got their Sunday-go-to-meeting faces on. That'a What's the Matter.

In one of the hospitals vicinity of Washington, a newly arrived patient, by the nanie of Pat, A veritable son of the Emerald Isle, complained of being quite deaf. The vext morning after arrival the physician, while going his regular rounds prescribing for the different patients of ward, approached Pat, who was at the time whistling a tune called the "Irish Washer The Doctor accosted Pat with "What is the matter with you but Pat didn't seem to hear, and continued The Doctor, a little bewildered at Pat's impudence, exclaimed rather sharply, "how long have. you been in the hospitul?" Pat said, nothing, but. made more music than ever. The Doctor.

by this time began to "smell an and screamed out at the top of his did you come bospiyou come from before you came here?" but it had not. the least impression on Pat, who still continued to whistle. The Doctor, after reading Pat's name on his card at the head of his bed, asked, Pat, don't you waut to go home on a furlough Pat's eyes glistened for a moment, when he exclaimed, Yes, that's what's the mattor." About a week after Pat receired a thir. ty day furlough. A Romantic Marriage.

Miss: Helen M. Dresser, a young lady who has within a year or two lectured OD Mormonism in differant sections of the United States sand the British Provinces, was recently married at Gout Island, near Niagara Falls, to Mr. Eli Garrett, of" Washington. A correspondent of the Boston Traveller, accidentally upon the spot, but who was unacquainted with the of the bride and bridegroom, thus describes the scene: "There was wedding yesterday on the pretty little island near the Falls. A fair girl: from Missouri and: somebody from Washington linked their fortunes together in the face of the everlasting foods.

-The bridal quartette, headed by al Methodist minister with a formidable roll in his hand in which curious eyes saw the wedding certificate, tried (very foolishly, since they had come to so public a place to be married, to find a lonely: nook for the ceremony, where there should be no uninvited witcesses, but all in vaiu. Their little drama drew its spectators, and guests without cards were on hand to bid the romantic couple be happy." pay A very curious baby story comes to us froin Now Jersey: A mother and her. daughter were confined on the same day, each having a little son: In the hurry of the moment both babies were placed in the same cradle, and, to the confusion of the mothers, when the youngsters were taken from the cradle, they were unable to tell which was the mother's and which the daughter's son- -a matter wbich, of course, must ever remain a mistery. The familica are in the greatest distress over the affair. MAKING OUT A SUPPER.

About this time his own regiment was dered forward, when ho at once took his place in the ranks and advanced again to the conflict. At the close of the engagement, however, he was among the missing, and nothing was seen or heard of hiin until the vext day, when he appeared at the regimental hospital, without either cap, coat, rest or shoes, and with one arm gone, merely observing that the "rebels had him a devil of a He had been wounded and taken to a hospital pear the field, had his arm amputated, and then, disdaining to be idle, walked five. miles to his own hospital, Upon the offer of transportation in an ambulance' to Aquia Creek, he declined, saying he would ride beside the driver, so that could "see the country." When such men grapple with the enemy there can be no doubt where the victory will lie. A Touching Letter. Dr.

Whilst a reporter was on a tour of inspec. tion to the wounded, at the, late, battle of Gettysburg, he had his attention drawn to to a singularly beautiful young man, upou whom death had already settled his mark: While admiring his tender age and fragile build, the young sufferers opened his soft hazel eyes, and looking up, said: "Won't you please raise my head and rub my hands; it cramps so.
