MIGGLES.
From tho California Overland Monthly,
We wort! elejht, Including U10 driver.
We liatl not spoken during tlio pussaso
of tlio hist mIx miles, tdtico tliu Jolting of
tlio heavy vehicle over the roughening
ro.nl hud spoiled thu Judge's lust poeti
cal quotation. Tho tall man beside, tho
Judgownsttslcep his urm passed through
the swaying strap and Ills hea l resting
upon It altogether a limp, helpless
looking object, as If he hadhango.l him
soir und been cut down too lute. Tho
French huly on the back seat was asleep,
too, yet lu n half conscious propriety of
uttltudu shown even In tho disposition
of tho handkerchief whlchsho held toher
forehead, and which partially veiled her
race. Tho lady from Virginia City,
traveling with hor husband, had long
since lost nil Individuality, in a wild
confusion of ribbons, veils, furs and
shawls. There was 110 sound but tho
rattling of wheels and the dash of rain
upon tlio roof. Suddenly th ostugo stop
ped, and wo became dimly awnro of
voices. Tho driver was evidently In tho
midstof 1111 exciting colloquy,wlth soino
one In tho road a colloquy, of which
such fragments us"bridgogono,""tweti
ty feet of water," "can't pass," were
occ.isloually distinguished ubovo the
.storm. Then came a lull, the mysteri
ous voice from the road shouted tho
parting adjuration :
"Try Mlggles."
Wo caught sight of our leaders as tho
vehicle slowly turned, of a horseman
vanishing through tho ruin, mid wo
wero evidently on our way to "Mlg
gles." Who and whero wus Migglcs? The
Judge, our nutliority,did not remember
tho name, and ho knew tho country
thoroughly. Tho Wushoo traveler
thought Migglcs must keep a hotel. Wo
only knew that wo wero stopped by
high water In front and rear, mid, thut
Miggles was our rock of refuge. A ten
minute hplushlng through a tangled by
roud.scureely wido enough for thu binge,
und wo drew up before t buried and
boarded gate lu a wide stonuwal lor fence
about eight feet high. Evidently Mlg
gles,' und evidently Mlggles did not
keep a hotel.
Tho driver got down and tried tho
gate, It was securely locked.
"Mlggles ! O Mlggles !"
No unswer.
"Mlggles I You Migglcs I" continued
the driver, with rising wrath.
"Migglesy I" Joined in tlio express-
limn, pei'huasively. "0 Miggy 1 Mlg!"
Hut no reply cumo from tho apparent'
ly Insensate Mlggles. Tho Judge, who
had finally got the window dowu, put
ills bead out uud propounded 11 series of
questions, which, If answered catcgorl
cully, would have undoubtedly oltici.
tinted tho whole mytery,but which tho
driver evaded by replying that "If wo
didn't want to sit in tho coach till night,
we bud belter rii-c up uud sing out for
Mlggles."
So wo roso up und called oil Miggles
in chorus. Then separately. Antl when
wo had tlnislied, it Hibernian fellow
puibuiigur from tho roof called for"Muy-
roIIs 1" wherent wo till laughed. White
wo wero laughing, tho driver cried
'Shoo!"
Wo listened. To our iutliiito amit.o'
iiient, the chorus of "Miggles" wus re
puttted from the other bldu of tho wall,
even tu tho Until and supplemental
"Maygells."
"Extraordinary echo," said tho Judge.
"Extraordinary d dbktink I" roared
tho driver contemptuously. "Como out
of that, Mlggles, and show yourself 1 Ba
it man, Mlggles! Don't hldo in tho
dark ; I wouldn't if I wero you, Mig
gles, "continued Yuba Dill, now (lancing
about in uu excess of fury.
"Mlggles!" continued the voice, "O
Mlggles!"
"My good man, Mr. Myghail I" said
tlio Judge, softening the asperities ol tho
name us much as possible, "consider tho
inhospitality of refusing shelter from
tho inclemency of tho weather to help
less females. Really, my tlenr sir "
but a succession of "Miggles," entliii
in a burst uf laughter drowned his
voice.
Yuba 11111 hesitated 110 longer. Tal
ing 11 heavy .stone from tho road, ho bat
tered down the gate, uud with tho ex
prttitiimin entered tho enclosuro. Wo
followed. Nobody was to bu seen. In
tliu gathering tlarkness nil that wo
could distinguish was that wo were In n
garden from tho ro.su bushes that scat
tcrcd over us 11 minute spray from their
dripping leaves untl before a long,
rambling wooden building.
"Do jou know tills Miggles V" asked
tho Judge ofYubit 1)111.
"No, nor don't want to," said Rill
shortly,who felt tho 1'ioueui Stugti Com
puny Insulted In his person by tho con
tiimacloiis Mlggles.
"Hut, my dear Mr," expostulated thu
Judge, us ho thought of tho burred
gate.
"Lookeo here," said Yuba 1)111, with
Irony, "hadn't you belter go back and
sit in tho coach tilt yer Introduced? I'm
going In,' und ho pushed open tho door
of tho building.
A long loom, lighted only Iiy tho em
hers of 11 llio that was dying on tlio largo
hearth at Its furthest extremity. Tho
walls curiously papered, and tho dicker
ing tire light bringing out Its grotesque
pattern. Somebody sitting in a largo
urin-chulr by thu Urn place. All this
wokuw us wo erowdetl together into
tho room after tho driver and express
man.
Thollguro ni'itlier spoko nor stirred
Yuba 11111 walked wrathfully toward it
untl turned thoeyo of his eonch lantern
upon its face. It was a man's facu pro
maturely old and wrinkled, with very
largo eyes, lu which theru was that ex
presslon of perfectly gratuitous solemn!
ty which I had sometimes seen lu uu
owl's, Tho lurgu eyes wandered from
Rill's faco to tho lantern, untl llnally
llxcd their guuo ou that luminous object
without further recognition.
Dill restrained himself with an of.
fort.
"Miggles 1 Ho you thai. You uhi
dumb, iiuyhow, you know i" und Yuba,
1)111 shook tho insensate tlgtiro by tho
shoulder.
To our great dismay, us Dill removed
his band, tlio vonerablo stranger appa
rently collapsed sinking Into half his
size uud 1111 Indlstlngulshnbto heap of
clothing.
"Well, dern my nkhi,milil lllll.look-
lug iippcaltngly nt in, nud hopelessly
retiring from tho contest.
Tho Juduo now stepped forward, and
we lifted tho mysterious Invertebrate
buck Into his original position. 1)111 was
dismissed witli tho lantern to recon-
nolter outside, for It was ovident from
the helplessness of this solitary man
thcro must bo attendants near ut baud,
and no all drew near tho lire. Tho
Judge, who hud regained his authority
nud had never lost his conversational
ntnlubllily standing before us with bis
back to the heurtlt chnrgeil us, an Ini-
aginaryjury, as follows:
"It Is ovident that cither our distin
guished friend hero has reached that
condition described by Shakspcaro as
tho sere and yellow leaf, ' or has suf-
ferred somo premature abatement of his
mental and physical faculties. Whether
ho Is really tho Miggles"
Hero ho was interrupted by"Miggles!
Miggles ! O Miggles 1 Mlg I" und In fact
tho whole chorus of Mlggles in very
much tlio same key us It had once been
delivered unto us.
Wo gazed ut each other for a moment
In f-omo nlurm. Tho Judge, In particu
lar, vacated his position quickly, us tho
volco seemed to como directly over his
shoulder. Tho cause, however, was
soon discovered in a largo magpie who
was perched upon n shelf over tho flro-
placc, and who immcdiato relapsed Into
sepulchral silence, which contrasted
singularly with his previous volubility.
It was undoubtedly his voice which we
heard In tho road, and our friend In the
choir was not responsible for tho dis
courtesy. Yuba Dill, who ro-cntered
tho room after an unsuccessful search,
was loth to accept tho explanation, and
still eyed tho helpless sitter with sus
picion. Ho had found a shed in which
ho had put up Ills horses but ho camo
back dripping and skeptical. "Thar
ain't nobody hut him within ten miles
of tho shanty, und that 'ar d d old
skcesicks knows it."
Rut tlio faith of tho majority proved
to ho securely based. Rill had scarcely
ceased growling beforo wo heard a quick
step on tlio porch, tho trailing ol a wet
skirt, tho tloor was lliingopcii,tiiid with
n Hush of whito teeth, a sparklo of dark
eyes, nml an utter absence of ceremony
or dinitlence, a young woman entered,
shut tho door, and punting, leaned back
against It.
"O, If you please, I'm Mlggles!"
And this was Miggles 1 This bright
eyed, full throated young woman, whoso
wet gown of coarso blue stuff could not
hide tho beauty of the feminine curves
to which it clung; from tho chestnut
crown of whoso head-topped by a mail's
oilskin hou'wester to tho llttlo foot and
ankles hldded far away somewhere in
the recesses of her boy's brogans, nil
wus grace this wus Miggles, laughing
at us. too, in thu most airy, flunk, otf-
ham! manner Imaginable.
You see boys," said she quite out
of breath, and holding one llttlo hand
against her side, quite unheeding the
speechless diseomilturo of Yuba 1)111,
whoso features had relaxed Into an ex
pression of gratuitous aud Imbccllo
cheerfulness : "You see, boys, I was
mor'n two miles away when you passed
down the road. 1 thought you might
pull iqi here, and so I run tho whole
way, knowing nobody was homo but
III in antl I'm out of breath-and-that
lets 1110 out."
And hero Mlggles caught her droop
ing oilskin hat from her head, with n
nilchlevoiisswlrl thatscattered a shower
of rnltt drops over us; attempted to put
hack her hair ; dropped two hairpins In
tho attempt ; laughed and sat down be
sido Yuba Hill, with her hands crossed
lightly on her lap.
Tho Judge recovered himself llrst,
and essayed an extrnvitgantco'iipllment
I'll trouble you for that liar pin,"
said Miggles, gravely. Half a dozen
hands were stretched forward; the mis
sing hairpin was restored to Its fair
owner; uud Mlggles. crossing tho room,
looked keenly In tho faco of tho Invalid.
Tho solemn eyes looked hack nt hers,
with an expression wo had never scon
before. Life nml intelligence seemed
to struggle buck iulo tho rugged face.
Mlggles laughed again -It wus a singu
larly eloquent laugh anil turned hor
black eyes and whito teeth onco moro
towards us.
'This mulcted person Is" hesitated
tho Judge.
"Jim," sahl Miggles.
"Your fntherV"
"No.,'
"Hrother'."'
"No."
"Husband V"
Mlggles darted a (illicit, h.ill'-dellaiit.
glunci) ul tho two lady passengers who
I bad noticed did not participate in tho,
general iiiiuculluo admiration of Mig
gles, and said gravely : "No Its Jim,"
There win tin iiwkwnrd pause. Tho
lady passengers moved closer to each
other. Tho Washoe husband looked
abstractedly at the lire; untl tho lull mini
apparently turned himself luwnrd for
self support ut this emergency. Hut
Mlggles' luugh, which was very Infect
oils, broke the silence. 'Come,' sho said
briskly, 'you must bu hungry. Who'll
bear a hand to help 1110 get tea V"
Sho had no luck of volunteers. In a
fuw moments Yuba 1)111 was engaged,
llko Caliban, in bearing logs for this
Miranda ; tho expressman was grinding
colli'O on thu vei anila; to myself tho ur
diiotisdtityot'sllelng bacon was assigned;
and the Judgo lent each man Ills good

when Migglcs, assisted by thu Judgo
untl our Hibernian 'deck passenger,' set

more, It was a social triumph chiefly;
I think, owing to tho rare tact of Mlg
gles In guiding the conversation, asking
all tho questions herself, yet bearing
throughout u frankness that rejected
tho Idea of unyconceulmenton her part.
So thut we talked of ourselves, of our
prospects, of tho Journey, of tlio weath
er, of each other of everything hut our
host und hostess. It must bo confessed
that Mlggles' conversation wus never
elegant, rarely grammatical, and that
at times sho used expletives, tho uso of
which aro generally yielded to our sex.
But they wero delivered with such a
lightening up of teeth and eyes, and
were usually followed by n laugh a
laugh peculiar to Mlggles so frank and
honest that It seemed to clear tho moral
atmosphere.
Onco during tho meal, we heard a
it noise llko tho rubbing of n heavy body
ngnlnst tho outer walls of the house.This
was soon followed by it scratch and
sniffling at the door. 'That's Joaquin,'
said Miggles, in reply to our question
ing glances; 'would you li.co to seo
him?' Ueforo wo could answer, sho
had opened the door, und disclosed n
half grown grizzly, who Instantly
raised himself on his haunches, with
his forcpaws hanging down in tho popu
lar attitude of mendicancy, and looked
admiringly at Miggles, with a singular
resemblance in his manner to Yuba Hill,
'That's my watch dog,' suid Mlgglesdn
explanation. 'O, ho don't blto,' sho
added, as tho two lady passengers flut
tered Into a corner, 'Docs he, old Top-
py I -(tho latter remark hcliignddrcsscd
directly to tho sngnclous Joaquin.) 'I
toll you what hoys,' continued Mlggles,
after she had fed and closed the tloor ou
Ursa Jfiiior, 'you were in big luck that
Joaquin wasn't banging round when
you dropped In to-night."
"Whero was ho?" asked tlio Judge.
"With mo," said Miggles. 'Lord lovo
you, ho trots, round with 1110 at night
like as If ho was a man.'
Wo wero silent for 11 few moments,
and listened to the wind. I'erliaps wo
nil hud tho sumo picture before us of
Miggles walking through tho rainy
woods with her wavngo guardian at her
sido. Tho Judgo, 1 remember, said
something about Una and her lion ; but
Miggles received it as sho did other
compliments, with quiet gravity.
Whether sho was altogether unconscious
of tho admiration sho excited sho
could hardly have been oblivious of
Yuba Hill's adorat ion 1 know not; but
her very frankness suggested a perfect
bcxual equality that was cruelly humil
iating to tho younger members of our
pnrty.
Tho incident of the bear did not udd
anything in Miggles favor In the opin
ion of those of her own uox who wero
present. In fact, tho ropust over, a
chtlluess radiated from the two lady
passengers that no pine boughs brought
lu by Yuba Hill nud cast us u sucritlco
upon the hearth could wholly overcomo.
Mlggles felt It ; uud suddenly declaring
thut It wus time to 'turn in,' offered to
show tlio ladies to their bed in an ad
joining room. 'You boys will lmvo to
camp out hero by thu fire us well as you
can,' bho added, 'for thar ain't but thu
ono room.'
Our sex by which, my tlenr Mr, I ul-
ludo to tho stronger portion of Immun
ity bus been generally relieved from
tho imputation of cuiiosity, or n fond
ness for gossip. Yet 1 um constrained
to say that hardly wus the door closed
on Miggles than wu crowded together,
whispering, snickering, smiling und ex
changing suspicions, surmises, und a
thousand speculations in regard to our
pretty hostess and her singular compan
Ion. I fear that wo oven hustled that

loss Mcmnoii in our midst, gazing witli
tho sereno ludlffercnco of tho past in
ids passionless eyes, upon our wordy
council. In tho midst of uu exciting
discussion -the door opened again, and
Mlggles re-entorod.
Hut not, apparently, the sumo Mig
gles who n fuw hours beforo had flashed
upon us. Her eyes wero downcast, and
as sho lusltntrd for a moment 011 tho
threshold with u blanket ou her arm,
seemed to havo left behind her tho
frank fearlessness which had charmed
us 11 moment before. Coming Into thu
room, khe drew a low stool beside tho
paralytic's chair, snt down, diow tho
blanket over her shoulders, uud saying,
'If It's nil tho same to you, boys, ns
wo'ro rather crowded, I'll stop hero to
night, ' took tho Invalid's withered hand
In her own, and turned her eyeH upon
tho dying tiro. An Instinctive feeling
that this was only premonitory to moro
eouildeiitlal relations, and perhaps romo
shiimo ut our previous curiosity, kept
us silent, Tho rain still beat upon llio
roof ; wandering gusts of wind stirred
tho embers Into momentary brightness,
until, in 11 lull of the elements, Mlggles
suddenly lifted up her head, ami throw
ing her hair over her shoulder, turned
her face upon the group nud asked:
'Is there any one of you that knocks
1110?'
There was no reply,
'Think again I I lived ut Mnrysvlllo

everybody had u right tn know me. 1

Thu absence of recognition may have
disconcerted her. Shu turned her head

beforobho again spoke.und moro rapidly,
'Well, you see, 1 thought bomo of you

shadow behind it as if sho oflered It
as u tacitnpology for hcrnctions. Silent
and expressionless, it yet spoko for her;
helpless, crushed and smitten witli tho
Divine thunderbolt, It stretched au In
visible arm around her.
Hidden in the darkness, but still
holding his hand, she went on :
"It was a long time beforo I could get

laugh, "I've read him that whole sido

"Why,"askedtho Judge,"do you not

"It's gutting late," said Migglcs,
gravely, "and you had better turn in.
Good night boys;" und throwing tho

herself down besido Jim's chair, her
head pillowed on tho low stool that hold
his feet, nnd spoko no more. The Are

It wus nearly morning when lawoko

through tho shulterhws window tho
full moon, lifting itself over thu solemn
pines without, looked Into tho room.
It touched tho lonely flguro in tho chair
