the i)urn.
A stranp;o looking person sat In aro
nownrd coffeo-houso or cafo,re,iillnp;tlio
paper3, but at tho eamo tlmo smokinp; a
small clnypipo and drinking liiacoffoo
with an air of satisfaction. Ho woro a
complete suit of black, which was cut
In tho latest stylo; a flno whlto necktio
or pcarf, being tlio only thing whito to
bo seen in his dress.
In stalked Major L., accompanied by
several military friends. Tho major wa3
far dilTeront in disposition and charac
ter from any of his comrades. Ho pos
sessed an ungovcrnablo passion to ridi
cule everything and to persecuto every
thing with his sarcasm; therefore ho
was much feared by his companions.
Tho Major seemed to be in a rathor
lively humor ,and it appeared as though
ho was literally seeking for somoono
on whom to nraclico his acquired habit
of rldieulo. Tho party in black.whom ho
took for a school teacher, on account of
his peculiar dross, had hardly been
espied by tho Major, than ho slid quiet
ly behind his chair, as though it was
accidental, and blow tho light out. His
comrades laughed. Tho stranger coolly
relit tho gas as though nothing had
happened, and continued read ing.
Now," thought tho Major, "I know
my man; no will stand somctiung."
Ho thereforo approached him and said,
sarcastically, 'good evening my dear
'fumiliour,' "at tho same tlmo grasping
his hand, and with it the plpo ho held
which was thorehy broken into plcco3.
"Waller, another pipo," called out
tho man in black, seiningly very quiet
and cool.
Tho comrades of tho Major laughed
still louder. Tho Major called him a
splendid fellow.
As ho could not rouso tho iro of this
party, as was generally tho casowilh
those whom ho selected as his victim,
and also being invited to tako a hand
In a gamo of whist, ho went into ono of
tho play-rooms, followed by his ontiro
suite, and let tho man in black sit quiet
ly.
Tho party in black continued reading
his paper, and drank his coffee, and
seemed to. havo qulto forgotten tho re
cent insults of tho Major and Ills parly.
But as soon as ho had finished reading,
ho got up and went into the room in
which tlio Major was playing, and step
ping up before him, and catching lilm
by tho lappcl of his coat, said :
'Sir, to-morrow morning wo fight,
and with pistols."
"So, so," interrupted tho Major, 'will
tlio school-teacher bring his ratan with
him ?"
Yoti aro mlstakeu, sir.I am a Captain
in tho British navy. To morrow mom-
IiiL' wo meet nt thu Poet's lane." Tho
captain loft without another word.
Tho ontiro company of yesterday met
at tho appointed placo with tho Major
the following morning. Tlio captain, in
magnificent uniform, awaited them and
bowed politely.
Tho captain t.ot having any tccomi,
one of tho MpjorM suito volunteered lo
act a; htich.
'Thank you," ropli.'d tho captain,"!
need no second. I havo myjockoy with
rao, and should I fall, ho knows what
is to bo done. You aro nil nion of honor,
and will allow no mean advimtago to
bo taken of mo."
Tho pistols woro now loaded, fifteen
paces counted 011, and tno opponents
took their places..
'You aro tho insulted party," said
tho Major's second to tho captain, "and
therefore huvo tho first shot."
Tho captain raised his pistol nud aim
ed. Thero was an unearthly sUHnes
among tho small clrclo, and r.ho Major
turned palo.
The captain lowered his pistol, uud
hald,"a3 the Major will not havo tho
fcecond shot ho shall shoot first."
"You seem to bo certain of youralin,'
fattl tho Major's secondhand it Is there'
foro noble on your part to allow tho
Major tho first shot, ai well us your ro
nuucUtlim oftho Hrst shot. But, never
thelces, I, us well as all horo itshcmbled,
cannot allow It. Y'oti 1110 till alone, and
without become. Y'oti lmvueomo under
our regulation. Thorofore, sir, shoot.',
"I do not wlsu to kcmio nuro of my
aim, but liu sure of it lnovcrJoUo,
With my pistols I hit toa certainty, of
which ioti bliall soon bo convinced.
John." mill ho called lib jockey ."throw
something up In tho air."
Thu Jockey pulled out: M i hanilkci''
chief. "No," Mild tho captain, "some
thing biualler, a plcco of money, at but
ton or something of (ho kind."
Tho Jockey pulled plum out of his
pocket. "Good, Joh,"erled tho caplaljt
'now throw 11 high In tho nlr."
OOL.
Tho Jockey threw tho plum up; tho
captain aimed, thero was a flash and a
report, and tho plum camo spurting
down, burstcd In many pieces.
An Involuntary bmvo escaped tho Hps
oftho lookors on. Tho Major turned
nalo as death.
The captnln did not speak another
word nbotit tho plum shot, but quietly
roloadcd his pistol In presenco of tho
second, and went back to tako His
placo.
"Shoot, Major," cried tho captain.
Tho second wanted to interfere, but tho
cuntnln nut him pack, and shouted a
littlo rough "shoot, Major."
Tho Malor shot, and missed. "Shoot
again, Major; you aimed misorably.
Should I fall It will ho lucky, not alono
for you, but for all of theso gentlemen
becatiso I intend to makoyou, onoand
all, look Into tho muzzlo of my pistol."
Tho Major raised Ills pistol and aim
ed, but everything seemed swimming
lieforo his eyes. Ills nerwa wero un
steady.
Tho cup till n looked him straight in
tho face. At last ho said, "Yesterday I
was your teacher In Joko ; to-day I will
huvo to ho your teacher lu earnest. You
holdyour weapon loo high. You will
never hit nio."
Tho Major shot and missed, and hot
perspiration could bo scon m tho now
anxious countenances.
Then tho captain raised his pistol and
aimed, and lowered it again. "Major,"
spoke tho captain, "you aro a miserable
creature. I Inquired about you yester
day, and every ono speaks ill of you.
In two minutes you will havo ceased to
live. Now I will bo your teacher, and
command you to pray lo tho great and
retaliating God, and ask his forgiveness
for your sins. Pray that nil tho people
whom you have wroDged may forgivo
you, aud God will heed.
All look off their hats and tho Jockey
his cap. With Ills eyes uplifted toward
heaven tho captain prayed fervently
lu bohalf of the Major. Tho stern man's
prayer had touched all. Tho Major's
heart bcataudlbly. Ho was now on that
bridgo which separates life from death.
"Amen !" camo from all lips. Oh, tho
plum had touched ail hearts. All put
their hats on again. Tho hour of;death
had come. Tlio Blojor had not a singlo
drop of blood in his countenance. Ho
trembled so violently thatho was hard
ly nblo to stand erect.
In order to ..end his misery tho cap
tain aimed quickly and lowered his pis
tol, handed it lo tho Jockey and said,
"Tho man is not worthachargoofpow-
dor," and left.
Tho next evening ho appoared again
dressed in black, in tho cafe, but no ono
disturbed him.
Tho Major, of courso, saw himsolf
compelled to resign his position in
tho army.
Fall Wcallicr ami W.irni ISlooil,
We fchould novcr allow ourselves to
forget that nature intended us for warm
blooded animals. In this cllmato of sur
prising changes, wo aro very apt to for
get it, especially iu tho fall and spring.
At such seasons, when wo freezo nnd
simmer on altcrualo days, thero is en
gendered in us a certain recklessness,
which lakes no heed of cold or heat,
dampness or dryness, and recoives all
temperatures with tho same front, gen
erally a defenceless one. It is certainly
very troublesoino to change front as
often as the weather, and thero is a
prejudico in Amoricau minds against
such change, which has a great deal to
do with tho rapidly increasing popula
tion of our gravoyards. Peoplo llkolo
havo soiuo stability of purpose, and if
they can havo it in nothing clso thoy
will try to havo it in their dre3s. They
will not mako a chaugo until they
mako a permanent ono for tho season.
No matter how hot it is iu tho spring,
they will wear spring clothes until sum
mer.and no matter how cool it may bo
in August, summer clothes must bo
worn until fall shall actually set iu.
Thus ofttlmes suddenly aud with sad
results wo find ourselves approaching
tho condition of tliofisln sand lizards,
for the chill ,tlmt alert to ertmnerof dis
ease, is ever ready, In our climate, to
tako advantage of clrcu astances.
Wo supposo that tho-o are no peoplo
in tho world hi indifferent to tho de
mands of tho weather especially cool
weather as Americans, and ono reason
of this is that very many of us aro
ashamed to keep warm. To wrap up
and button up, and to put down will
ows wlietuvcr thero is a chilling
cl.atigd i'i tho air,argues,to ni03t minds,
namby-pamby eagerness to bo well
tint isrepugnant to tho hardy American
soul. Ho, rather Hum bo laughed at, wo
hhlver. Wo prefer trjgeily, tho grave to
the ridiculous. Jlome and Society, in

Too Poor.
Moore, of tho Rural iTftt Yorker, was
sitting In ills officoono afternoon, somo
years ago, when a farmer friend camo
n and said ;
"Mr, Moore, I llko your papor, but
times aro so hard that I cannot pay for
it."
'Is Hint so, friend Jones? I'm very
sorry to near that you aro so poor; ii
you uro so hard run I will glvo you my
paper."
"Oh, no ! I can't tako It as a gilt."
"Well, then, let's seo how wo can fix
It. Y'ou ralso chickens I believe."
"Yes, a fiiw, hut they don't bring
anything, hardly."
"Don't they V Neither dooi my paper

you may telect from your lot one chick

"All right, Brother Moore," and the
fellow clucked at what ho thought a
capital bargain. Ho kept tho contract

A Oooil Story.
Tho following la not entirely now, but
in tho skillful hands of Mr. Wattcrson,
of tho Loulsvlllo Courfcr, it receives
noma ombclllshmont that makes it
worthy of repetition :
Whon tho lato Goucral John A. Quit
man was running 'against Henry S;
Eootofor Govoruor of Mississippi, in
1851, he, not unreasonably or unnatur
allv.mountcd his war-horsc.brandishcd
Ida Hword in tho air. and fought his
campaigns over again. Ho mado a bat
tle fiold of overy stump In tho Stalo,
from Holly Springs to tlio Louisiana
lino. "Fellow citizens," said he, "I
havo been, all my ilifo, a soldier iu tho
servlco of liberty and my couulry.
When tho buglo call or freedom ro
soundod In Toxas I raised a command
and rushed lo tho front, sharing tho
glories of San Jacinto nnd tho Lono
Star. When tho tocsin of war was
heard upon tho Rio Grando 1 again
obeyed tho summons, nnd proceeded at
onco lo tho Bcono of action. At Palo
Alto and Resaca do la Palmn I was in
tho thick of tho fight ; at Monterey and
Bucna Vista, before tho walls of Chop
ultcnee. all along tho lino of Taylor nnd
Scott, I breasted the storm of shot and
shell, until at last, with my own hands,
I placed tho glorious btar-spangieii
Banner upon tho halls of tho Montezu-
mas." General Quitman was an car
nest speaker, n bravo and truo soldier,
and n man of handsomo personal ap
pearanco and bearing. All that ho said
of himsolf was truo, and, spoken among
his natlvo peoplo, many of whom had
shared his glories and lib tolls, ft was
not out of placo or season. It mado a
visiblo stir among tho masses. Whor-
over ho went ho producod nn effect.
But, on n certain occasion, when the
war feeling was apparently strongor,
and moro general than usual, ho ob
served an old man In tho crowd quite
overcome by feeling, sobbing violently,
and crying.out overy now and then,
Amcii,"and "Oh, my Quitman."
When tho General had finished, ho
sought out this old man, and accosted
him. "My Irlend'" said he, "you seem
ed to bo moved by what I said." Tho
old man declared that ho had nover
boon so moved in his life, and then
drying his eyes, ho said :
'And you went and fit tho Moxl-
cans for Texan uocriy, uenerai, aid
you?"
"Yes," said Qultiimn, "I did."
"And you shared in tho glories of
San Jacinto and the Lono Star, did
you V" ;
"Yes ; I did that, too."
"And whenlhotosciu of war sound-
on tho JKio uratuio you uow to in o
call of your country, and passed through
all tho battles of Taylor's and Scott's
lino until tho Stars and Stripes wero on
tho halls oftho Montezumas, did you ?
Yes, my old friend, I have told you
nothing but tho truth."
"My noblo Quitman 1 My bra vo
Quitman! You havo dono enough for
your country. It is titno that your
country gavo you rest. J shall vote for

A Ilcmnrknhle Boy.
If thero was anything Father Bog
les really delighted In, it wa to sccuro
tho attention of someone while ho spun
a yarn about tho cutcnessor his boy
Tom. 'Ah I' Hiiid Bogles ono day as lie
ralrly fixed his auditor, 'Tom is the
most remarkable bov you ovor set eyoi
on; bo's like his old Hud you can no
moro clioiiinveiit him than you can u
wooihihtick. You lecolli'ct that choice
apple tree down under tho hill, beside
thotitnniji fei.ciiV Well, I was mighty
saviu' of them apples, I cau tell you. I
forbid Tom toucliin'etn , as they brought
a high prleo lu market ; but ho would
get em in sjiito of mo. It was his way
you know, nnd all possessed couldn't
stop him. Ono day I caught tho young
scrapegraco up Iu tho tree, stuflln' his
sack with tho Jrult, and I determined
this tlmo to punish him for it.
Thomas my son,' says I, your fath
er's calliu' ye como down.'
I thought I'd bo sort of persuasive,
so it would fetch him ; but lie smelt a
mice, aud didn't budgo an iuch."
'I can't dad, theso pesky apples aro in
tho way.'
'Tom,' I continued, sternly, for my
dander begun to riz, 'como down tills
minnlt, or I'll cut down tho tree, and
let her fall.'
You eeo my poor limbs' wouldn't
permit my shinnln' after tho boy, so I
had to take other means.
'Oh.no you won't dad,' says Tom;
only think how ymiM mourn ir you
couldn't sell the apple to f.tufi' tho old
toad skin."
'That was too much, i havo my own
buy accuse tno ufniich parsimony. So
what docs I do but got tho nxe, and cut
away nt tho bottom of tho treo.'
Tom Thomas,' I crle.l.as tho treo
was about nan cut oil, 'Win you como
down now, nnd savo your self?'
Nover mind, dad.' says ho ; I aint
spllin.'
'It was no us . ; I couldn't bring him
that way : and so I chopped away at
tho tree, till at la-it it began to sway.uud
fell to thu ground.'
What I and crushed your own boy?'
ejaculated his horrified listener.
Not by tt long chalk," replied old
Bogles, winking knowingly. 'You
couldn't come it over Tom lu any such
wav. What had ho dono but crawlod
out on a limb: and, while I was chop-
pin' at tho bottom oftho tree, ho had
been cutting off tho limit with his Jacl
knl Te. and when the trui Tell, ho was
still up thi'iKon the limb!'
