Wo wi'iollvo iia.sst'iii'orH in nil : two Indli's on Iho lint'k si'itl, it middles ntred Kciitlcinaii anil it Quaker on tho middle, and inyM'lfoii tlieone In front. Two Indies illicit Inwu lieun mother nnd diiuKhter, aunt anii nleee, t'ovem ess and elmrKU, or milit liavestHtalneil any other relationship which iniido it proper for two ladies to travel together unattended, The middle aged gentleman was sprlijlilly and talkative, lle.soon struck up tin ticiiiiaihtance with the ladies, to wards whom, iu his zeal to il he rather mrr tliil, the nrrecahlt howinir and sinilltiijaiid ehatterliijjovi'i'hisshouldei' in a way painfully suggestive, at his time of life, of u "oil" In thu neck He was evidently ixym; Lothario. The (Junker wore tho tmiform of his sect, and eonlliieil his npeech, as many it parliamentarian would .savu his credit hy doing, to simple "yeas" and "nays." As for my.-elf, I make it an invariahle rule of road to bo merely a looker-on and listener. Towards evening, I was arou-id from one of those reveries into which a yuan man, iciliout being either a poet or lover tciV; nometimus fall, by the abrupt iiucry from the talkative gentleman "Are you tinned, sir V" "I am not," I answered, astonished no doubt visibly, at tho iiuestion. "lain sorry to hear it," lie replied "for beforu reaching our next .stopping place it will lie several hours iu tho night, and wo mti.st pass over a portion of the road on which moro than one rob bery is repotted to have been commit ted." Tho ladies turned pale, hut the stran ger did his best to reassure them. "Not that I think there is tho slight est danger at present," he u.niined; "only when one is lesponsiblo for the safely of ladle.-., you know, such a thing asapMol in re'uch would iniUirlnlly add to one's eoiilldence." " lour priuciplcs.my friend," address ing the(iimker,"I preniiuio aro us much opposed to carrying as to Using c.irnal weapons." "Yen," was tho response. "Havo the villains murdered any of their victims'.'" tho elder lady nervous ly liuiuited. "Or have they contented themselves with with plundering them V" added tho younger, in a timoiotis voice. "Decidedly thu hitler," Iho amiable gentleman hasleiieel (ogive assurance; "and as we aro nono of us prepared to olfer renistaiieu in ciso of attack, noth ing worse than robbery cm possibly be fall us." Then, after blumlng his thoughtless ness lu having unnecessarily introduced a disiigiieahlu .subject, the gentleman quite excelled himself in eH'iirts lo raise the spirits of I lie company, and hud succeeded so well hy the time night set in, that all had unite forgotten, or only remembered their fears to l.uigli at them. Our geulnl coiiqianlou fairly talked himself hoarse. I'recelvluu' which, ho took from his pocket a packago of a newly invented "Vmiyh f-'eitu'," and, after passing it llrst to the ladles, ho helped himself to tho b.ihmce, and toss ed tho pape r out of the window. He was iu the inliW of a high encun iiim on the new nostrum, more than half tho ellfly'of which, ho insisted, depended on its being taken by suctim, when u shrill whistle was heard, ami almost Immediately tho coach stopped, whilo two faces, hideously blacked, pre sented themselves, ono at each win dow. "Sorry to tioiihloyou," said tho man on tho right, acknowledging with ubiiw two lady-llko screams from tho luck teat j "but 'biislnes Is business,' anil our.s will .soon bu over, If things go smoothly." "Of con rse,ge!itlemcn, you will spare, as far as may bo consistent with your disagreeable duty, tho feelings of theso ladles," appealed tho pollto passenger, iu his blandest manner. "Oh I certainly ; tluy shall bo llrst at tended to, and shall not ho required to leave their places, orsubmlt to a search, unless their conduct lenders It neces sary." "And now, l.tdies," ctmtlnued tho robber, tho b.irrel of his pistol glitter lug In tho light of thu coach-lauip, "bo so good as to pass out your purses, watchis, and such other trinkets as may bu accesslblu without too much trouble," The ladles caiiio down handsoniely, and were no further molested. One by ono the rest of us wero com pelleel to gel out, tho inlddlu-aged gen lli iiiaii'K . itirii coming llrst. Ho sub niltlid with h winning grace, and -wns robbed llko u very Chesterfield. My own all'ulr, like tho bum I lost, is jKiuvcly worth mentioning. Tho Quiik ei 's turn eaiim next. Ho quietly hand ed over his pocket hook ami watch, nud wlien asked If hu hud tiny other vultia- blts, biilJ. "Nay." I; 1869. COL A Quaker's word Is good oven niiiono; thieves; so, after n hasty "good night," tho robber thrust his pistol In his nock- et, and, with his two companions, ono ofwhoni had held thorcliisof tho load ers, was about taking his departure. Stop I" exclaimed tho Clunker, in it touo more of command than request. "Stop! what for?" lettirned the other, lu evident surprise. Por at least two good reasons," was tho reply, emphasized with a cotiplo of Derringers cocked nnd presented. "Help!" .shouted thu robber. "Stop 1" thcQuaker ngalti exclaimed. "And if ono of thy sinful companions advances a step to thy relief, thu spirit will surely movu mo to blow thy brains out." Tho robber nt tho opposite) window, and tho ono at thu leader' heads.thought It a good lime to leave. "Now get in, friend," said theOttaker, still covering his man, "nud take tho middle tent; but llrst deliver up Ihy pistol." Tho other hcsltnted. "Theo had better not delay ; I feel the spirit beginning to move my right foru linger." Thu robber did ns ho was directed,iiiul the Quaker took hl.s place by his side, giving tho new comer tho middle of tho seat. Thu driver, who was frightened half out of his wits, now set forwanl atu rapid rate. Tho lively gentleman soon recovered his vivacity, lie was especi' illy facetious on tho Quaker's prowess, "iuu'rcn rum Quaker, you are. Why, you don't ohu.c worth a cent." u "I'm nut a 'Slutkiny Quake,;' if that's what theo means." "Oftho 'Hickory,' or rather oftho 'Ohl Hickory' stripe, should say," re torled the lively man; hut the (Junker relapsing Into hl.s usual monosyllables, the conversation Hugged. Times-pod, nud sooner than wo expect ed, the coach stopped where wo wero to have supper and n chango of horses We had deferred a tctlistributlon of our ei'.jo's till wo should reach this place, as tho dim Ugh of tho conch lamp would havo rendered tho process somewhat dllllcult befoie. It was now necessary, however, that it should bo attended to ut once, us our jovial companion had previously an iioitnced his intention of leaving ih at this point. Ho proposed a postpone ment till after supper, which he ollercd lo go and order. "Nay." urged thu quaker, with an approach to abruptness, and laying his hand on tho other's arm, " 'business bu furo pleasure,' and for business there is no timo like thu present." "Will theo be good enough to scaich the prisoner.'" lie said to me, still keej ing his hand, in a friendly way, on tho passenger's arm. I dill so, but not line of the ttulm aiti'cU, luultl La Jmnd! "llu must havo gotten rid of them in thu coach," the gay gentleman suggest ed, and Immediately ollercd to go nud search. "Stop!" thundered thu Quaker, tight ening his gr;ip. Thu man turned pale, and sttuggled to release his arm, lu an instant ono uf the Herri tigers was levelled at his heart. "Stir n hand or a foot, and you're a de.ul man!" The (Junker mustjiavo been awlully excited so completely lo lorget both tho language anil the principles of his per suasion. Placing tho other pistol in my hand, with directions to Hie on the llrst of tho two men that madu a su-qiicious move ment, ho went to work on Lothario, from whose pockets, in less time than it. takis to tell it, ho produced every item of the missing property, to tho utter aiiLizementof tho two ladies, who had begun, iu no measured terms, to reiuon strate against the shameful treatment the gentleman was receiving, Tho (Junker, I need scarcely udd, was no (Junker at all, but ashruwd detective, who had been vet on the track of ,i band of tlespv-rndoi's, of whom our middle aged friend who didn't look ucir so middle-aged when ills wig was oil was tho chief. Tho robbery hud been adroit ly planned. Thu leader of the gang had taken passage iu tho coach, und after learning, as hu supposed, our defenceless condition, bad given tho signal to his companions by throwing out tho scrap of paper already mentioned. After lliu unexpected capture of tho llrst robber, It was attempted lo save tho booty by secretly passing it to thu uivouiplice, still believed to bu unsuspected, who counted. on being able to make oil' with It nt tho next stopping place. Tho result was tlia. both, for a season, "did the Stato somo service." .V. I'. hnlyer. Tho Colonel's Old Roan. 1 havo never been ublo to ascertain tlio origin of tho quarrel between the Crickleys and thu Drakes. They had lived within it mile of each other for live years, and from tho llrst of their acquaintance there had been a mutual feeling of di-liko between tho two fam ilies. Then some misunderstanding about the boundary of their respective farms revived thu latent llamo, and Colonel Crickley having followed and wounded n fat buck one afternoon, c.imu up to him and found old Drake and his two sous cutting hlin up ! This Incident milled fuel to thu lire, and from that timu there was nothing thu two families did not do to annoy each other. Ono ovenlng Mr. Drake, tho elder, wns returning homo with his "pocket full of rocks,,' fiom Chicago, whither ho had been to dispose of a load of grain. Sam Uarstou was with him on thu wag- on, and as they approached tho grove which Intervened between them und Mr. Drake's house, hu observed to his companion i "What u beautiful marl; Colonel Crlckley's old Hoaji Is over yonder!" "Hang It!" muttered old Drake, "so It is!" Tho horso was standing under somu trees, about twelve rods from tho ro.ul. Involuntarily, Drake stopped his team, DEM. - VOL. XXXIII NO. Ho glanced furtively around, then with a queer smllo tlio old hunter took up his rlllo from tlio bottom oftho wag on, and raising it to ills shoulder, drew sight on tho Colonel's horso. "Ilo-iutlful I" muttered Drako. lower- inir his rlilo with lh n fllr nf n mnfi rn. fisting a powerful temptation. "I could nielli uiu ivuau so easy i" "Shoot," Hiiggostod Sim Ilarston. who loved fun in any shape. "No, no 'twouldn't do," said the old hunter, glancing cautiously uround him again. "I won't tell," said Sam. "Wal, I won't shoot this tlmo iinv way, tell or not toll. Tho horso is too Igh. If ho wasfllty rods off. instead of twelve, so thero'd bo a bare possibil ity of mistaking him for a door, I'd let ny. As It Is, I'd give tho Colonel flvu dollars for a shot." t that moment tho Colonel himself stepped from behind a big oak, not half a dozen paces distant, and stood before Mr. Drake. '.Well, why don't yon shoot?" Tho old man stammered in confusion: "That you, Colonel? I I was tempt ed to, I declaro! And as I said, I'll givo a V lor ono pull." "Say an X, und it's a bargain I" Drako felt of his riile. nnd looked nt old Iloan. How much is thohoss worth!" ho mutturul iu Sam's enr. 'About fifty." "find, Colonel, I'll dolt! Here's your X'." Tho Colonel pocketed tho money, muttering: "Hanged if I thought you'd taku mo up 1" Willi high glee tho old hunter put a fre.-h cap on his ri lie, and stood up in his wagon, anil drown close sight on old Hoan. Tom Illusion chuckled. Tho Colonel put his hand before his faco and chuckled too. "Crack," went thu rifle. Tho hunter loroouta horrid oath, which I will not repent. Sam was nslonishcd. Tho Col onel laughed. Old Hoan nuver stirred ! Drake stated at his rillo with a f.ico black as Othello's. "What's tho matter with you, boy? l'Us' time you over sarved mo quite such a trick, I sWP.nl" ,Vnd Drake loaded tho li eco with great wrath and indignation. "l'eoplo said you'd lost your nack n shooting," observed the Colonel, in a cutting tone of satire. "Who said so? It's n lie!" thundered Drnke, "I can shoot " "A horso at ten rods? hu! ha!" Drako was livid. "Look here, Colonel, 1 can't stand that I" hobenan. "Nuver mind, the horso can," sneered the Colonel. "I'll risk you." Grinding his teeth, Drako produced another ten dollar bill. "Hero!" ho growled, "I am bound to havo another shot, any way." "Crack away," cried tho Colonel, pockellng thu note. Drako did crack away Willi deadly aim too but thu horse did not mind the bullet in thu least. To tho ragu and unutterable astonishment oftho hunter, old Itoan looked him right iu tho face, as if ho rather liked the fun. "Drake," cried Sam, "you're drunk ! A horso at a elozen roils oh, my eye !" "Just you shut your mouth, or I'll shoot you!" thundered tho excited Drake. "The bullet was hollow, 111 swear. Tito man lies that says I can't shoot! Last week 1 cut oil' a goose's head at fifty rods, and kin do It again. Hy thu Lord Harry, Colonel, you can laugh, but I'll bet, now, thirty dollars, I can luing down old Itoan at onoshot." Tlio wager was readily excepted. Tho stakes wero placed In Sim's hands. Elated with the Idea of winning back his two tens, and mako an "X" Into tho bargain, Drako carefully selected a perfect ball nnd even buckskin patch and beaded his rille. A minute later Drake was driving through tho grove, tho most enraged the most desper.tto of men. Ills rifle, innocent victim of his iie, Jay with broken stock on tho bottom of thu wag on. Sam Ilarston was too much fright ened lo laugh. Meanwhile, the gratill od Colonel was rolling on tho ground, convulsed with laughter, mul old Itoan was standing undisturbed under the trees. When Drako reached homo, his two sous, elNeoverlng his ill. humor and tho mutilated I'oiiililion of his rlllu-hlock, hastened to uroii-u his spirits with it piece of news, which they were sure would make him dniieo with joy. "Clear out!" growled the angry old liuin. "1 don't want to hear any news; get away, or 1 shall knock ono of you down." "Hut, father, it's such a trick!" "Hlasl you and your tricks!" "I'luyod oil' on tho Colonel 1" "On the Colonel I" cried tho old man, beginning lo bo interested. "Uud, if you've played tho Colonel n trick let's hear it." "Well, father, Jed and I, this after noon, went out for deer" "Hung tlio deer eomo to thu trick," Couldn't lluil any deer, but thought vo niiHtshootsouiolhlng; so Jed bang od away at tho Colonel 'sold Itoan; shot lilmdoad!" "Shot old Itoan?" thundered tho old limn. "lly the Lord Harry, Jed, did you shoot tho Colonel's boss?" "I didn't do anything else." "Devil! devil!" gioaned thu hunter. "Then," pursued Jack, confident tho joku part of tho story must please his failici, ".llm and I propped thu boss ni mid tied his head back with a cord, and left hlnislandlng under tho trees, exact. M' 113 if 'lu wiw ullve Hai ha! f.uiey tho Colonel going to catch hlin! ho! hoi -wasn't It a Joke?" Old Drake's head fell upon his breast. 31o felt of his empty pocket-book, and looked at his broken rille. Then, iu n rueful tune, ho whispered to tho boys '-Yes, boys, It's n Joku! Hut if you over tell of it-or if you do, Sam liars ton I'll skin you allvol lly tlio Lord Harry, boys, l'vo been shooting at that lead horso for half nu hour tit ten dol lars a shot!" n.VTE3 OV ADVERTI3IN .

It , onco the hello of tho court f (leorge III., but at that period grad ually retiring from society, possessed ono of tlio largest of tho old houses', and gave in it entertainments which wero the most popular of tho day. bho wns celebrated for three things (onco for four, but tlio fourth her beauty- was of tho days gon'o by:) these tilings wero her fu--clnatlon, her bencolenee, nnd set of the most matchless and perfect amethysts. Her housu contained tapes tried chambers. Tho walls of tho ono lu which sho slept wero hung around with designs from heathen mythology, and tho tlue.st piece in tlio room was (hat which hung over her dressing table It lcprescnted I'heebus driving tho chariot of tho sun. Tho llguros nnd horses being life-size, it filled up tho paco between tho twit, window-, ana die horses wero concealed behind tlio h old-fashioned Venetian looking- glass, whilo I'hoobus iiini-Uf, six feet high, looked down by day and by nignt on ids mistress at her toilet. One even ing Mrs It had nn unusually largo party at home, bho wore oil her nmo thysli. On retiring lo her r oni, about 1 o'clock in tho morning, sho took oil horjuwcls, laid them on tlio table, and dismissing tho weary v.iaiil, i'ltended to put them nwuy hersi.ll; but, beforo doing so, knelt down, us u-ual, to her nruvors. While engaged iu her devo tions, it was a Iinbit with her to look upward, and thu face of I'lucbus was generally her point of sight, as it were, and tho object on which her eyes most easily rested. On this particular night, as usual, sho raised her eyes lol'liieinis. What does sho see? Has I'ygniallnn been at work? Has ho niletl thoso dull silk eyes with vital lire? Or Is tho dreaming? No. los-0ssed naturally wonderful courago and calmness, s continued lo move her Up as If in sllen pKlver, and never onco withdrew her gaze, ami stM! tlio eyes looked down upon hers. Tho llgiit of her caudles shone distinctly on living oibj, i,iei ner good keen sight enabled her, after a cleverly managed scrutiny, lo sou that the tapestry eyes of I'luebus had been cut out, and that, Willi her door locked and every servant in bed in their dis tant apartments, and all her jewels spread out before her, sho was not alone in tho room. Sho concluded her pray ers With her f.icu sunk in her hands Wo can well imagine what those pray- ers must havo been! Sho knew them was somo ono behind that tapestry; sho knew that bells and screams wero equally usoloss.and sho lay down in hue bed its usual and waited tho Issuu, her only omission being that sho did not, put away her jewels. "They may savu my life," she s till to lierwlf, and shfj closed her oyoj. The clock struck nvu before a sound was heard, and then thu moment arrived. She heard a ru-lle, u, descent from behind tho tapestry, andii man stood at her dres'-ing-table. Ho took oil' Ids coat, and ono by one lu secured tho jewels beneath his waist coat. What would bo his next move? Would it be lo thu bed-ide or to tiiO window '.' Ho turned and up.iruacheil Iter bed-ide, but by that time -lie lnvl seen enough, and again closing In r e yci' re-igned hei elf to tho IVovideaco w hoso protection sho hail just been irvin?.

Hogs aru very fond of them for litter, so are cows; and fo.- compost they are excellent.
