THE TABLES TURNED.

A TRAMP, passing through Battle Creek last week, fell into a conversation with Clem Wilson, a colored man, and it soon transpired that he was Clem's old master, in Tennessee. Clem took him to a hotel, gave him a good dinner and a dollar in money, and the old man—once a master, now a tramp—having accepted the hospitality of his former slave, marched on.—Battle Creek Journal.
—He didn't think, when sowing those wild oats in his youth, how uncomfortable this gritty oat-meal would prove for his aged teeth.—Congregationalist.
