The revival of the fast mall brings tip again the
illowlnz capital piece by John H. Yates, which wo
believe llrst appeared In tho Rochester "Democrat.''
Liy by the weekly, lletsy, It's old like you nnd I,
And rend tho morning's dally, with Its pages scarce
ly dry,
While you and t wero stcepln', they wero pilntlng
them to-day,
Is 1 ho cltv by the ocean several hundred miles away.
"llow'd I get It I" llless you lletsy, you needn't doubt
and laugh,
It didn't dropdown from the clouds nor come by
telegraph
I got It by the llghtnln' mall wo'vo read about you
know
The mall that .Jonathan got up about a month ago.
We farmers llvln' round the hill went tu the town to
day, "osce the fast mall catch tho bags that hung besld'
tho ways
iulek as a Hash fromthir derlng clouds, whoso tern
pest swent tho sky,
rite bags were caught on bonrd tho train as II went
ronrln' by.
Vo are seeln' many changes In our fast tleclinln'
veir t
Stracgo rumors now are fcoundtn in our hard-of-hear-In'
ears.
Ere the sleep that knows no wakln' comes to waft us
O'er the stream.
Some great power may be takln' nil tho self-conceit
from steain.
'ell do we remember lletsy, when tho postman cir
Med malls,
Win' horseback through tho forest, 'long the I ir.e
tv 'nrtHn trails.
How Impatiently w 0 waited w 0 were earnest lovers
then
For our letters eomln' slowly, many miles throujl
wood nnd gl"n.
Mnnv tlmrs, j on know, wo missed them-for the
postman never came
riien, not knowing what had happened, we did each
the oth"r blamot
Long tii'iso lover quarrels lasted, but tho (lod who
melts the proud
tlronghl our Urasln'hcnrts together and let sun
shine through tho cloud.
Then, r,t last, tho tidings reached us that the faith,
fill potman fell
llefore the foi ct savage with his wild, terrific jell,
Mi 1 your leltershy and mouldered, while thesweet
birds s 'ng nlinvn.
And I was siyln bitter things about a woman's love,
I ,uig uud tedious wero Ihe Juurneys few nnd far lie
twe'n the mslls,
In Ihe dajs when we were eourttn' when
tlinshed with wporten Halls;
Now the whlte-wlntred cars are fljln Mong the
shores of Inlnvt sens,
And joung lovers read their letter) 'mil lirxury nnd
ease.
We have w Hnos-ed many changes It our thrw-score
years nnd ten:
We no longer sit nnd wonder at the dl-rovcrlcs ot
men ;
Mi the shadows of life's cvcnln'wo rejoice that our
boj's
Are not called to meet the hardship that embittered
hair our Joys.
Like the old mall through the forest, youthful j ears
go slowly tij ;
Lieu the fast m ill ot the piesent, manhood's j cars
how switt they tij ;
We nro sitting In the shadow : soon shall bic.tk life's
brittle cord
Soon shall come the welcome summons from the fast
mall of the Loid.

I was a deal Ion proud ; but tn tell you tho

some pretty eloia calculations to make my
allowance cover my modest wants. I re

himself back.and laughed in hi rare, genial
way, without finishing his seuteoce,
"However, to pass over that, and enmo to

"Haven't seen mine since two weeks after

"Don't know whero mine is," suit Eenner
nnd the others intimated that their expert
enco entirely coincided with his,
"That's just it, boys." pursued tho Judge.
"I tried to get n situation by exhibiting that

Well, as I said, our condition was about
tho same, financially, so wo joiucd together
and rented n room in n very cheap but re
spectable neighborhood. We kept bachelor's
hall there very comfortably for awhile.while
I hunted employment, and ho compounded
wonderful Trench dishes nut of nothing.
"I suppose in ray search lor employment
I had started out with some foreign power
or Postmaster General, ot something of that
kind. My aspirations, !after declining for
scvcial weeks, like a decreasing series in
Geometrical Progressions the lelc noir of
my boyhood at lust pointed nt an ordinary
erkship in some mercantile establishment
as happiness beyond comparison. Even
here I was doomed to disappointment, and
then I gave up the struggle. I had spent
my last dollar that morning. All day I had
walked from street to street, lrom square to
square. My limbs wero aching with the uu
accustomed exercise, my brain was in :
whirl. I knew 0110 man whom my father
had befriended years ago, in tho days of his
prosperity, when the man was in great dis
trcs. Since then, Fortune's wheel had
turned, and my father had died in poverty
while Mr. Laclede was onn of the money
kings nf the." city. Can you understand why
I would not go to him until every other re-
totirce had failed ? Even then I went slow
ly and reluctantly. I stood before the door
in the g.vlight, w telling the crowds as they
came and went, and tninking some very hit
ter thing', it may be. in. knowing that
tliev would snmi close un for the night, aud
asked tn speak with Mr. Laclede.
"He received me in his private office,
where he was looking over and filing papers
and he left me stsnding near the door, and
went cm with his work, afler once looking
up and saying, 'Good evening.' There was
something repulsive about him, I thought, I
letermined to try fur the situation first.wlth-
cjut saying anything who I was. So I slated
my business very eniieicly. He raised Ins
spectacles upon his glistening forehead, re
ferred from me to a paper he held, and lrom
the paper back to me, and then said :
'Young man, there is no vacancy, and
even if there were, for the past two weeks
then- have been, on an average, twenty ap
plications like this per diem. You had bet
ter a'niilv somewhere else.''
"My hand was on the door knob, but I
turned around and looked at him. With
out knowing clearly how the words came, I
said plowly :

Hmald was on his way back to the the city,
while I with his pistols in my pocket, was
triding along the green lanes that led far
ther nnd farther out into tho country. I was
lesperate,of course, and a burning fever was
bounding in my pulses, confusing all that I
lid. It must certainly have been that, com
bined with llanald's influence,' that BCt me,
Kenneth Lane, behind a hedge,witl a pistol
in my hand and a murderous intent in my
heart; while the moon shonfl'whitely pver
the broad fields, and the long ribbons ol
roods that lay between them.
"The first that passed was a man whose
face I could not see. I had my finger en the
trigger I was just ready to spring out up
on him, when suddenly well, Graham, he
commenced whistling that same little. foob
ish lovo.tune you used to be. always whist
ling, singing and playing, at college. That
made mo grow very weak, and I couldn't
move. It brought back al.1 ypu fellows so
distinctly. Hy the way, I wonder if he will
ever know hotv near that little love tune
saved his life? Talk nbotit the value of
little things, the stars might all have fallen
from their spheres, and never have affected
me ns did the few simple bars whistled by
that traveler along the moonlit road.
'I recovered mvselt after n little or
rather lost myself again and began to. won
der nt my weakness ; and then, just as I had
stiaightencd myself up and laken anew hold
on my resolution to do something desperate,
I heard the rattle of carriage wheels far
away on tho moonlit, white ribho 1 load.
In-tantly I was on the alert, with every
faculty quickened I raised my pistol and
examined the lock, wondering at the same
time whether my sentence would be hang
ing or transportation, or imprisonment for
life, with hard labor. Before I had settled
the matter in my own mind, the carriage
had come nearer. The wheels were rattling
furiously. Who could it be, driving at such
a breakneck speed? Then suddenly it came
in sight, and at the same moment I heard
the terrified screams of women, saw that the
1 river cvas missing from his place, nnd tha
the horses were running away.
In an instant, forgetting everything
else at those cries of dMress, I dropped my
pistol and sprang into tho road. Just for a
moment the startled horses paused, and in
that moment I seized the bits. Then com
menced a fierce battle with the frantic,
plunging steeds. I was thrown down, tram
pled upon, but I clung to tlieni n ith despair-
ng energy. Ten m.nutes ago, my only
thought had been to lake life: now', my on
ly desire was lo save it. to it was, I clung
to the horses and kept them there, until I
felt stronger hands assisting mine, and then
the wild struggle, tho broad fields, 'and the
whlteroad all faded away and lelt nothing
but darkness and silence.
"When I awoke well, boys, I thought
Aladdin's lamp- had certainly come back
upon Ihe cnrlli, and somebody had, been
using it for my benefit. Ifl had came back-
to life in our room, llanald s and mine, I
might have concluded that the whole affair
had been a horrible dream, and so said noth
ing more about it. Hutit certainly was sur
prising to find myself in a strange room, on
a strange bed, with a rosy old gentleman
leaning over me on one aide, aud a rosy old
lady cm the oilier, their faces expressing the
most lively solicitude, while a grave- medi
cal gentleman first felt my pulse, and then
rubbed thu palms nf his hands together
with great salislactioii. Nor wa3 my aston
ishment decreased, when the rosy old gen
tic man mid :
"The dear bov ha come through. Allow
me to lake vour hand doctor. We owe so
much to jou."
"Whereupon he shook hands voryln.trtlly
with the doctor, and then with the old l.idy,
and they all seemed extravagantly glad of
my recovery,
It was mtuiil-iiing, too, In the days that
followed, while" I was lying there- Umi wtak

"The most promising young lawyer in
thejatate," said Fenncr, emphatically.
"Hut what about the'daughter, Judgo?"
said Grahnm. "You surely aren't going to

Life in India.
Tho next day I landed at tho City of Pala
ces, and shortly after had an audience of the
Marquis of Hastings, Governor-General and
Commander-in-Chief of India, to whom I
brought letters from his niece, Lady William
Hussel, Mr. Cook, of llolkham, Lord Lau
derdale and Lord Holland, These served
me in good stead, for thero happened to be
a vacancy on ills personal staff, to which 1
was immediately appointed. The following
