A P.t'KAL. LOVE STOKY.
feT VET FMITB.
A Shnrt distance from one of ho villnee lit
northern Cambria reshles ajo inir 'nun whom
weslinll call Joe for convenience. Joe-went to
town every fundsy evening, and not tinrre
tpiently between times, to call on his adorable
SIsry Jane, who resided there, and once togeth
er they were the happiest pair lb most vivid
Imss-triatiou ever conceived of. Thf y were in
t he habit on such occasions of promenading t y
moonlight, early end late, and especially did
they appear to have a mutual inclination to
walk out a s-queetered rosd that leads from
the village, where, nione and undNtnrbed. they
could whisper into each other's ears the most
tender and endeiu-insr accents of undytny love.
There, smld nature's tranquility, in the silent
frrandeur of a summer's evening-, what place
more fitting fr.rtbeseail-imrortant interviews?
Thesurrounr.ina" were so inritinjr and the lov
ing and the loved so happy in this quiet retreat
thst it is fair to presume t hey found new words
ot love'to thriil each other's hearts, so fond and
true, until at lust they rve expression to their
feHinirs as if by inspiration bself.
This soothinjr pastime did not. however, con
tinue very lonjr. Alas, no! earthly jovssrest
liest only transient : they soon nsss away never
to return, and notliiny remains for us tiut to
mourn over their untimely departure. And so
it was in this instance, ss the Sequel wili ou!y
too plainly and too painfully show.
Several inquisitive youths' for such there are
In every community manifested a creat detd
of interest in the billing and ctolng of these ar
dent youmr lovers, and determined If possible
to find out why they so persistently pursu.-d
the sane path in all of their moonlight ram
bles. With tbisobject in view, then, the inqui
sitive yojths aforesaid on a certain occasion
sauntered out the rod so much frequented liy
the irur-bintr pair, and iuietly secretin thetn
s. 'ves behind some abler tiushcs br the war
sidt. in front of which lays hure lor, they as
patiently as possible awaitexl the hoped-for de
insicmnt. They had been there but 11 short
time wbrit alomr came the happy couple, with
their minds v,o doubt filled as usual with ideas
ant anticipations of "the jrood time cominir."
their footsteps meantime teudtmr in the direc
tion of the huge lojr to which reference ha al
rratiy Iteen made and upon which they seated
themselves in blissful IjiiiCance of soy other
presence than their own. 'x bus comfortuhly
enscoiu-ed they forthwith proccK'd to busi-ncs-,
and the talr of love which f hey did tben
find there nnftdl were as miiuun; 'o the hiJ
den auditors a( tey were no d'uiht st;-.thinir to
the (ruaiiinir puir iheinse!vc-s. Hut that Wis not
nl!, lor wuh ".be endearing words came still
more eiul.-arimr caresses. n.l then well, soc'i
a sc ientific display of pitre SMd Unadulterated
bujrjrinjr ps was 1 lieu uit-1 tne.i e induig-ed in has
seldom been dreamed of. much lui- witnes-'ed.
In this laud of rural dciiirhts. Simultaneously
with these proceed tuirs cunie a mutual inter
cti.inire of e-iip-tical salutations, one alter an
other in quick succession, until the piimher
wu nlnirtst beyond computation, tine of the
f.-siive youths in amhusii endeavored to count
them. Imt after reaching four hundreri and od i
he finally jrave It up in desp:iir. S 11 Mice it to
say that these deliah'.f ul prjeeedinir? continued
without interruption for -veral hours, to the
trrcat diversion of the spectators, whose vigils,
however, eventually became so wearisome that
they bojian to consider tliebet means of tcet
titiiftiut of the dilemma without heinsr discov
ei c-d. As such 0:1 exit seemed to be impossible,
how ever, there m'hs nothing left tiut to submit
to the inevitable, which they did with the best
irriice pos-uoic. Xieantiinethe huiriritnt anil kiss
inir went on till about h:tlf-pat eleven o'clock,
when the lovinjr couple, apparently satiated
with the deliifhts they bad been eujoj inir. tof.k
their depdrtme for other scenes, much to the
relief of the pent-up bull-dozers, who felicita
ted themselves on their eset: pe from intimiiJa
tion. but were far from feelimr happy after
their lotiir-coutinucd viirils. The joke was jrood
on their side, but it was tar from bein a com
plete success- What was the next thinsr to be
done? This was a question eay to ask. and
not so dithcult toauswer, as further develop-nn-nts
w-iil nh.iw.
On his way home after partine-with his lu"'
cinca Joe whs ot-liift d to pass ihroiorb a dense
oret, which was always dark and irloomy.
The lesti ve youths, full y a ware r t hi fact, de
termined upon interviewi-nr onr hero in irhost
ly fc.irti, and with this fitijec-t in view they re
paired to the most lonesome init in th-str p of
wiKids alluded to. Only h:ilf an hour elapsed
from the lime th.-y saMie.i forth from their for
mer hidiue place until they look up their posi
tions iu the lotieiy spot chosen, where thy
made haste to array one of their number iii
spectral habiliments.! m thedoirgof which they
we'e oblitfcil, for want of more tittinir attire,
to envelop him in two white shirts, wuh which
they eovered his person lrom the crown of his
head even to the soles of his feet. Thus sppa
reled It is fair to presume tr.at he presented a
sirht well calculated to strike terror into the
h art of the unsuvpcc'in wayfMrcr at so un
casinalile an hour. AVitli :1 thinsrs thus pre
pared for tiie culm ination of the joke, I he eaer
p irty quietly awaited the adveul of Joe. who
soon hove in siyrht seated upon on old white
h'Tse. wbo-e liucameuts wre tasily discern
ble some distance away. He came ahmsr aiow
ly snd U isurely. nodontt thinkimr of the de
lilfliffi'l e.Ttw-r'ence of the I it few hours, when
lo and beho:dl the 3'oiimr man enveloped in a
pitirtif white shirts suddenly crossed the rood
in ri ont of liitn. arivinir vent to a hissin? sound
astiepMsstd to the other side and hid behind a
tiee. i'our Joe! what was to become of biui
now? Would that terrible spec! re ret urn and
s will low 'brni up. or w 011 id it follow hi in iu close
pursuit? 'Ihe latter seemed 10 be the conclu
fion tench, d l.y him. for without utterina- a
word he rode ou slowly until the fnlal spot was
passed, wb'-n he put spurs to his horse and sped
sway at rKhtuin? speed. Up hill and duwu be
went at a fearful jrallop
New Im train ir Mi" beast with all his rtosrht.
Now dmchir.15 its la I in a terrible fright ;
New iHiuticinu upon ihe animal tall,
Kumpety-bump. like a rublK-r ha 1
Away he fk-1 till the race was o'er
And the brute reined In at his cottage door."
Afier rvni'h'nj home he turned the hor-e into
the fieM. but forirot in his terrible frijrht to
t ike off th-? brblie. Then he retired o bed. but
d d not etcndieam aloiit (rhii. Not much.
Neither did he sleep any that nicht. nor did h
luke any bretkta-t next m. rr.int. and the re
sult was that people hep-in to wonder what was
tbe no tt r. He was suffering' from an tit tuck
ol some kind, hut he didn't like to tell w lint it
was. The secret, however, came out rt l;it
He had s eti a veritable (rhost on the very spot
where so many persons iWiared that t hiiti
time ami rnenn male itself manifest. It was
' a biir while thinir." a tall s roan on horse
back, and he was sure it followed htm. It could
not be anything else than a disembodied spirit.
In a few durs. however, Joe recovered trom
his in 1i-pOMlion. though there stiil remained a
cOnsiH.nl fear, should he ever a?ain (rnooui!
itifr, that the same terrible spectre would onoe

was at a loss to conceive how so r lent an-i en

a cruel deprivation indeed, could have desert

It is perhaps needless to add that the perpe
trators of this ghastly joke went home on the
nlvhr in question perlectly satisfied with the
result of their labors, but still more were they
amused when tbey heard nex t day the lull psr
ticularsof poor Joe's escape from the frisrhtful
