HAD IX SPITE OP HIMSKIiP.
"Kvcryliinggoc3 wrong," said Mr. Triplcr,
laying down his knifo and fork with tbo face,
of a martyr.
There aro boino people in tho world with
whom "everything" seems chronically to go
wrong there nro some whoso first infaiitino
wail is uttered iti tho minor key, and who
go on lamenting through life ; ami of this
much abused class, Sir. Nathan Triplcr was
a burning and shining light.
"What's tho matter dear?" questioned
Mrs. Tripler, who sat opposite her husband
with a touiid-eycil baby on her knee, and
two or throe little ones clamoring for their
share of tho matutinal meal on cither side
of her.
Mrs. Triplcr was a trim, neatly mado little
woman, with bluo eyes and flaxen hair a
woman who might havo been pretty, could
sho havo divested herself of n certain fright
ened, apprehensive look that camo over her
faco whenever her liege lord spoko or looked
toward her. Not that Dorothy Tripler was
actually afraid her husband had neither
beaten her nor used coercivo measures, but
when a man begins to find fault, a woman
never is easy in her mind lest somo domestic
screw should bo waxing loose.
"I can't cat a mouthful, Dorothy," croak
ed Mr. Tripler, dolefully. "Such cooking I
and such food I You may as well turn that
new cook of yours into the street nt once."
"Rut, Nathan, I I am very sorry, but I
cooked tho breakfast myself, this morning.
Isn't it nico?"
"Nice? Yes very nice for thoso who can
digest leather and drink dishwater I"
"The biscuits aro fresh and hot, Nathan.'
"I don't want to bo poisoned with hot
bread."
"And I thought tho bteak was unusually
lender."
No reply. Mr. Tripler hail folded his
arms and was gazing with an expression of
abstracted despair at tho ceiling.
"Will you havo another cup of cofleo ?
timidly questioned his wife.
"Couec? Is thatcoliee? Really I thought
it was hot water that had gotten into tho urn
by mistake 1"
"I will order somo fresh made," said Mrs.
Triplcr, witii her hand on tho bell-rope.
"You will do no such thing, ma'am, if you
please," said Mr. Tripler, shortly. "31 ap
petito is completely destroyed."
"Will you havo an cg boiled '?"
"No."
"There's some very nico ham in tho
pantry."
"I daro say thero always is when I don't
want it "
I am very f-oiry, Nathan," said poor
litllo 3Iw. Tripler, despairingly.
Yes, sho was sorry, this faithful, much en
during wife j nor did tho frequent repetition
of this domestic storm at all ubato bet pen-
itenco anil tcuso of guilt. Somo women
would havo got accustomed to tho daily dis
turbance and thrown it off as tho robin cuts
tho dctv drops from her wing. Not so with
Dorothy Triplcr. Sho was too sensitive, too
conscientious, too delicately organized to
laugh oil' her troubles as somo surfaco deep
characters would havo done. So when her
husband departed, btill grumbling under his
breath, as ho slammed tho door, sho leaned
her throbbing head upon otio weary littlo
hand and murmured softly to her.clf
"Oh, I wish Nathan was different I"
Then, as if sho had uttered high treason,
sho started to her lect, checking tho soma
tlon of repining, and began industriously to
prepare tho threo apple-cheeked, towheaded
Tripler for tchool.
"It's 3Ionday morning nnd Nathan don't
liko them to bo late," thought tho meek-
spirited wife,
3Icanwhilo 3Ir, iriplcr was slowly walk
ing down tho wild and solitary gleu that
led lo tlio road whero twicoadny, tho Lend
villo stngo rolled by conveying passengers
to tlio train ut Slartin's station. It was
cheaper to live in tho country and so 3Ir,
Triplcr lived there, although, as furasnctual
tastes went, ho don't know n buttercup from
a burdock,
As Niithan trudged along, thinking how
best to get rid of somo troublesome shares
of railway blocks that were- sinking uiicom
fortablo on his hands, ho biiddculy became
conscious of thoprcbcnceof a man stout and
inlddle-nged, with a head m smooth and
shining as a billiard ball, who was sitting on
a boulder of moss-grown stouo just whero
tho pathway merged Into tho Lcndvilloroad
"Good morning, sir," said tho stranger.
"Havo u seat?"
Mr, Triplcr had no very Mrong tocial do
incuts In his nature, no ho sillily inclined his
head iitul kept on his way. Rat tho first ho
knew two Iron grasps wero onjlils shoulder,
ho felt hlm-'clf ttvirled mdden'.y around, llko
a human humming top, nnd ncalcd with
moro foreo than was exactly ngrceablo on
tho boulder.
"What do you mean"
"Dear mo I" bliddcnly Interrupted thlsun
comforlablo companion, "what a very nico
hat you have. What do you say lo exchang
ing lials? Mino is a very nico straw, but I
find its somehow heating to tho brain.
"Yon aro quite welcome, sir," faltered tho
tremulous Nathan, speaking all tho moro
rapidly in that tho freakish maniac had al
ready deftly effected tho change.
And your coat, too nice cool linen.
Upon my word, now, that coat Is Infinitely
preferable to this swallotv-lailed concern of
mine, with tlio brass buttons. Yes it fits
mo very nicely. I hopo you don't object,
sir, to the accommodation ? '
"N o I" faltered Mr. Tripler.
"Well, good morning," said tbo stranger,
looking nround with a bewildered air. "I
don't really see whero my chief orderly is
I told him to bo here at precisely nine o'clock
and cvcrythlnirwlll bo in coufuslon if I don't
attend lo It presently."
Ho plunged into the green, dense fastness
of tho woods, talking rcsistlessly to himself
as he went, and Mr. Nathan Triple was left
softw in n coar-e straw hat, and a coat of
coarse, blue cloth, garnished with huge
metal buttons, whoso brilliance was consid
erably tarnished.
"Do.tr me, what a figuro I cut," groaned
3Ir. Tripler, eyeing himself with disgust.
"I must go directly homo aud get on some
thing decent. A man would bo hooted
through tho Streets of New York if ho ven
tured to make his appearance in such a cos
tume as this !"
Ho rose, brushed away the chill drops of
jicrspiratiou from his forehead, and was just
replacing tho crimson silk pocket handker
chief iu its resting placo when ho was sud
denly grasped from behind and thrown skill
fully to tho ground.
"Well, wo'vo cotched you at last, my
hearty," said a burly man who stood over
him, while another had bound both his
hands and feet together befoio ho could find
words or breath to remonstrate. "You
thought you wero going to give us tho slip,
hey? Come, it isn't worth while to cut up
liko that, you know, unless you want tho
straight jacket brought out."
"Straight jacket 1" gasped Triplcr, "what
do I want of a straight jacket?"
"Nothing; unless you behave yourself
unruly like. Steady, then I Tom bring up
tho wagon."
"Whero aro you taking me to?" remon
strated our hero, as ho was tumbled into a
one-horso wagon.
"To tho asylum, to ho sure, whero you'd
havo been two hours ago if you hadn't been
a littlo too spry for tho stage driver and your
keeper."
Light began to dawn on tho troubled chaos
of 3Ir. Tripler's much bewildered mind.
"It's all a mistake, my good fellows a
ridiculous mistake," ho exclaimed, "I'm not
a madman I"
"No. of course not ; wo know you aro
not," responded tho larger of tho two with a
wink to his companion "Drivo on, Tom."
"But I am not indeed; you aro mistaking
mo lor somebody else a man wuo just
forced mo to exchange hats and coals with
him, and went down into tho woods he is
tho madman 1"
"Oh, no I guess not," said tho big keep
er with a fearful attempt at pleasant irony.
"My good men you aro laboring under
somo very singular delusion, remonstrated
the victim, trying to speak plainly between
the jolting of the wagon and his own excite
ment. "I am 3Ir. Nathan Tripler, of No.
, John street."
"Oil, yes," said tho keeper, lighting n
cigar, "yesterday you was Napoleon Iiona
parte, and to day you aro Nathan Tripler,
mid to-morrow likely as not, you will be
the king of tho Sandwich Islands. I've
icard this kind o'talk afore."
Tripler's heart began to stand still with
undefined horror. Was this a hideous dream?
or was ho actually to be immured within
tlio high btono walls of the asylum he had
., . . ... i , . i- i ,
so olton waiiceu past wttu a leoiing oi ureuu
and horror beyond all description, tho life
long victim of some scarce crediblo mis-
ako I In VAin ho reasoned, argued, protest
ed; his words fell on tho unheeding ear-of
his two conductor-, like drops of pattering
ain on the stormy surfaco of Tablo Rock,
until at length ho was carried more dead
than alive into a narrow apartment at the
end of a long row of similar ones.
It was lighted nnd ventilated by an iron
grating in tho door, witii a corresponding
window high up on tho wall, and furnished
with only a narrow couch mid a stand built
in the wall ; and thero 3Ir, Nathan Tripler,
released from his confining bonds, was left
to enjoy tho uninterrupted society of his own
cheerless meditations.
"It can't bo possiblo ! I must bo asleep
and dreaming !" thought Nathan.
Rut it was possiblo and ho was never
wider awake in his life.
Towards evening, a pitcher of water and
a picco of bread wero dealt out to him. 3Ir,
Triplcr ato it under a bort of mental protest
to relievo tho gnawing sensation of faintness
that was nt his vitals.
"What would I give for one of Dorothy's
hot biscuits," thought tho wretched captive
"31 v poor littlo Dorothy I I havo been too
hard upon her. Supposo I should ilio with
out being able to tell how ashamed I am of
being such a brutol
It was not tho dry bread that choked Na
than Tripler jut then it was tlio humilia
ting sense of his own sins and bhortconp
ings.
Noxt morning it was bread and water
again. Nathan thought of Dorothy's despised
coll'eo and giuinbled at steak.
I'vo deserved it," thought Nathan,
there's no mlstako nboutthat. Poor darling
littlo Dorothy. How her heart is aching
for mo now. I wish I could stroke down her
hair just once. "Oh, It's hard to bo treated
so, evon though I know I am berved oxaclly
right, If I ever get out ootids holonlive,
Dorothy will find mo n changed man."
Tho confused current of thoughts was just
eddying vaguely through his mind when
there was n sound of bteps nnd voices In tlio
long corridors without,
"I supposo they aro going to put on a
btralt-wnlsl-coat now," thought 31 r. Triplcr,
with a resignod air. "Well, there's iiolhin;;
loft for mo hut to endure, I don't think I'm
mad j but how long I bhall hold out sano
uiidor thoso Interesting concatenation of, cir
cuinstaiicM is rather n doubtful question."
Rut Mr. Triplcr was mistaken about tho
blralt waistcoat It was his keeper Instead,
accompanied by two or three gentlemen all
profuso in apologies and sy mpathclio ejacu
lations.! "Such a mNtakol" said ono gentleman
witii a bald head,
"So awkward for you my dear sir I" said
another middle-aged gentleman, with a Ro
man nose.
"Hut entirely iiiilnlentlon.il, I assuro you
sir," chimed In a third.
Whllo 3Ir. Triplcr looked vaguely from
ono to tho other ho said :
"Then I'm not mad, it seems 1" lio de
manded. "Nut a partlclo sir I" cried tho threo coin
mlttco men in chorus.
"Oh I" said Jlr. Triplcr, "Im glad to
hear it I"
Then tho coinmitteo proceeded to inform
their involuntary guest how tho mistako had
happened by which his identity had been
confounded with thatof his mysterious ac
quaintance of tho woods.
"Wo aro very sorry," said tho first com
mitteo man shaking Mr. Tripler's hand as if
it had been tho town pump.
"So am I," said 3Ir. Triplcr, laconically.
"Hero is your hat and coat, sir," said tho
second committee man. "Wo had great dif
ficulty in getting them away from our friend
in tho Incurable Ward, who fancied they
wero tho last dying bequest of President
Lincoln."
"And anything wo can do to mako atone
ment for tlio awkward mistake would bo a
pleasure," said tho third; whllo the keeper
eyed Air. Tripler dubiously, as if not alto
gether certain but that ho was a littlo mild
after all.
When 3Ir. Nathan Triplcr reached his
homo all was the wildest grief nnd confusion
there. Dorothy had had tho woods searched,
tho river dragged, and tho whole vicinage
ransancked, and was now in hysterics in tho
nur.'cry. Nathan walked straight in and put
both arms around her.
"Hero I am, Dottiol Don't cry any
more."
Hut Jlrs. Triplcr cried moro than ever.
"It's only a dream," sho sobbed forth, "Na
than is dead."
"No, I'm not dead," said 3Ir. Tripler with
a grim senso of humor, "only I'vo been
ina.l." And quieting his wife's sobs after a
while, he told her all his adventures. "And
now is dinner ready 1" ho asked, "for I am
ns hungry as a bear."
"I haven't a thing in tho house to eat,
Nathan dear," wailed the wife.
"I don't care if it's nothing but dry bread
and molasses, Dottio," said tho husband.
"I can tell you that asylum took somo of tho
nonsenso out of me. 1 shall never grumblo
again, don't bo afraid.
And Dorothy brightened up. It was tho
first timo ho had called her Dottie," or
spoko so tenderly sinco their honeymoon
was in tho crescent glow.
He adhered to his good resolutions ho
never did grumblo again. Tho asylum hud
done him genuino good.
In Onion There is .Strength.
Tho Governor of Ohio, whom a great many
people irreverently cnll "Old Hill Allen," in
his younger days had not only a voice closely
allied to seven-fold thunder, but was a
shrewd practical lawyer. His rude demoli
tion of sentiment onco gained him a case.
General 3Iurphy, a member of the Chilicotho
bar, thirty years ago was one of the most not
ed advocates that rode the circuits of Ohio,
He could weep profusely over the most hard
ened criminals and shed quarts of real tears
whenever the occasion required it. Tho re
sult was that ho usually carried tho jury with
him. On one occasion General 3Iurphy was
engaged to defend a noted horse thief in
Ross county, while the State secured tho ser
vices of Gov. Allen. Tho usual routine was
gone thiough with, and tho prisoner's guilt
was pretty clearly demonstrated, but General
Murphy relied upon working up the sym
pathies: of tho jury. His effort was un
usually brilliant, and towards the cloe of his
appeal tears rolled down his cheeks in tor
rents, while tho jurors rubbed their eyes with
their cuffs. AH thin time Alleii sat still'
and upright, glaring with dry and frozen
eye3 upon 3Iurphy. When tho latter wound
up with a final burst of eloquence nnd tears,
which left the whole audience snillling, Ohio's
tall Governor, that was to be, straightened
hiin-clf to his fullest height, and pointing
his long bony finger at the jury, said : "Gen
tlemen, there is such a thing as blotting out
justice with tears and confounding judgment
with much weeping, Gen. Murphy under
stands this better than any other living man.
Rut before his tears work an absolution of
tlio bin hardened criminal at tho bar, and
cheat the stato prison of its dues, I wish to
show the fountain from whence theso tears
How so copiously," With ono swoop of his
long right arm ho was down in Gen. Mur
phy's coat pocket and withdraw nn immenso
red onion, denuded of its outer covering, and
holding it aloft beforo the eyes of tho aston
ished jurors ho continued: "Tho ancient
Egyptians worshipped the onion becauso it
was typical of the celestial spheres. Hero
in Ohio wo have good reason to curso it, be
caiiso in General Jlurphy's pocket it has so
often cheated tho gallows and tho prison of
their dues." The prisoner was convicted,
and General 3Iurphy nover rubbed his hand
kerchief on a peeled onion again when Old
Rill Allen had tho other sulo of tho case.
What Was thu Fohiiiddi:k Fruit?
It is n common opinion that
"The fruit
of that forbidden tree, whoao mortal tasto
Drought death into tlio world, and all our woo"
was tho tipple. Rut thero is no foundation
n scripture for tho opinion. Tho applo is
iioivhero mentioned in this connection, Tho
"apple treo" is thrca times mentioned in iho
Hible vu ; Sol. Song 2 : It, mid 8 : G ; Joel
1 : lL'. Apples nro mentioned only threo
times viz ; Proverbs 'St : 1 1 ; Sol, Song 2 : 7
and 7 : 8.
Somo timo since, in writing to a misslomi
ry iu Eastern Turkey, near whero tho Gar
den of Eden is buppoed to havo been located
wu asked if there wero any local traditions
in regard to tho matter. In his reply, just
received, ho says :
"Tho Jlohniiiuicdiiiis generally bay that
tho forbidden fruit was wheal, though some
supposo it to be li'j, and others grape. Tho
Arniluiaiis ulniObt uulvcrxnlly reckon it tu
havo been apples, though somo of tho priests
of tho moro ignorant class, In order to find
warrant for their fusts, say It was meat. A'.

Tho youth who cried "Excelsior" didn't

From tho Philadelphia Times,

To the Vilitor of The Timet ;
That old patriot poet, Philip Frcncau, de
serves bfttcr treatment nt your hnnds than
seems to bo Intended by the Implication in
tho wordi : "And (Heaven save tho mark 1)
poetry from Frencnti, Dtvlght nnd Rarlow."
No poet has arisen even in Ihcfo latter days
with a truer genius than was possessed by
Frcneati, nor any man with a more patriotic
and llberty-loting heart. In tho darkest
hours of tho Revolution his songs and burn-
lug words kept alivo tho hopes of our pcoplo;
and his satiro, his humor nnd his indignn-
tlon wcio leveled at Tories nndUritish alike,
There is a rvthm and a rinc to his verso
which is often nttalned, nnd his songs and
lyrical pieces aro of a kind which can bo
Bung as well as read. Every incident in our
Revolutionary history was mado to contrib-
titc to swell tho tido of patriotic emotion.
Hero wo havo an exultation "On tlio nicmor-
nblo victory of tho Ron Homino Richard ;"
thero a lamentation "To tho memory of tho
bravo Americans" who fell nt Eutaw
Springs; now a ghastly picturo of tho hor-
rors of "Tho Rritish prison ship ;" then a
"Song on Captain Harney's victory over tho
ship Great 3Ionk." Thcio aro many poetl-
cal gems of tho first water among tho poems
of Erencau. In ono already mentioned oc-
curs that mcmorablo verso from which a
quarter of a century afterward Sir Walter
Scott copied a lino nnd borrowed tbo whole
idea. I'Veneau had said :
They saw their Injured country's woo ;
Tho Uamlng town, tho wasted Held ;
They rushed lo meet the exultlug f oo ;
They tool; tho spear but left iho bhlcld.
And Scott said :
Lamented Chief ! not thlno tho power
To save In that presumptuous hour,
When Prussia hurried to tho Held,
And snatched tho spear and loft tho shield.
And not Scott nlono bos levied contribu
tions upon our Revolutionary poet. In his
beautiful poem of "O'Couor's Child,"
Campbell has also borrowed an imago and
copied a line. Frencau said :
Hy midnight moou3, o'er moistening dews,
In vestments of tho chaso arrayed,
Tlio hunter still tho deer pursues,
Tho hunter and tho deer a shade.
And Campbell said :
1 Kow on tho grass-green turf he sits,
Ills tasseled horu beside him laid;
Now o'er tho hills In chaso ho lilts,
Tho hunter and tho deer a shado.
Rut Freneau was a scholar as well as a
patriot and a poet, and somo of his transla

Philip Freneau was born iu tlio city of
Now iork, January 2, 1752, and died near

published an edition, in two volumes, and
in 1815 Longworth issued an edition, iu two
olumes, In New York. In 18G5 .Mr. Evert
A. Duyckinck edited aud 31iddletou pub-
lished a volumo of Frcneau's "Poems Rclat-
ing to the American Revolution," In his
poem "On tho Departure of tho Rritish from

men who fell in the struggles to free the
Stato, said ;
Cut fame is theirs and future days
on pllllar'd brats shall tell their pralsa ,
Shall tell when cold neglect Is dead
'These for their country fought and bled I"
Jcll'rey said of Freneau that tho timo would

They aro cheap. It costs nothing to turn
tho face, to shut tho mouth, to not see a per
son who is beforo tho eye, and has expecta
tions if not claims. It is very easy to put
ofT the call long overdue, to neglect sending
an invitation to a party to one who is not of
much account, to pass a former friend on tho
street without recognition, to go and como
ignoring tho cxistenco of people who havo
rights and feelings. And it is as cownrdly
to do so as it is easy and mean.
But tho cheap, cowardly slight is as hard
to bear as it is contemptible. How it
rankles. It stings like a nettle. It is prus-
i sic acid on u wound. Tho very cownrdicoof
