Never did a boy have a more lonely ride. i It was the year after our family moved up i ! from Penobscot county, Me., to begin life j ; anew on a backwoods farm. My father j ' had taken a contract to carry the mail from j ' L , tho townnext below ns, to D , J j eleven miles above. Between these two , ' points the mail was carried twio a week, j ' The sum received for the service was only ; I fllfl.

J . . . Every Tuesday and Saturday morning I had to set off for D at six o'clock w itb the ma 1 bag, and ride over the country road to D This road ran through the forest, and had not been lng built. There were but three clearings and watering j " mo eaiinK ms weni in ana saw n,s troughs in the whole distance.

I sometimes ' nervous, but I said bravely "All aboard !" saw the tracks of bears in the road, and sometimes my horse would stop and snort, as the scent of some wild animal was borne to bim. Several times tbat season I bad glimpses of bears crossing the road somo distance in advauce of me. I oommonly arrived at D by eleven o'clock, but I bad to wait there till half past two for the down mail, so that when autumn came I was always late borne. Tho adventure of which I m going to sneak baDnened to me that summer. Above D , in the woods on the river, a i,in.)..,ii, firm hail for ivn nara nrnvioiui been getting out spruce and pine.

One afternoon as I was going to L and bad left the town of D four or five. miles behind me, I overtook a woman dressed iu a soiled calico gown, with an old dirty wbite "cloud" on her head. She limped pain fully, and bad quite a large bundle tied up in a calico apron. I knew the was a Province woman. As I cime tip to pass ber she cast a most piti ful look in say face. She looked young, not more thn eighteen or twenty years old. "O, my goo boy," says she, "can't ye give me a lift on yer horse f " "How far are you going ?' I asked.

Every few minutes she would say that I had better put the "barg on the hoorse" and not carry it myself. No, I told her, I would carry it ; she had her bundl to take care of. Aa she talked and held her bundle, my attention was nrn tvt th 111 11 mil of her left hand. Its nail was gone. It had apparently been jammed off, leaving a peculiarly fresh pink red scar. In taut the entire end of her thumb above the joint was red and looked disfigured and peculiar. Meanwhile, she talked on, and aroone other things told me that her name was Betsy Ellen McNally, and that she was from Woodstock. "When she had ridden a mite or two, my new ac quaintance began to complain that the sad dle was "harred to sit." Couldn't I strap the "barg" on the saddle, and let her throw her old shawl over it? and so as she said, "kill two burreds with one stone" she would have the "easy sate," and the "hoorse" would carry tho "baig." Till that moment I had not had a sus- picion that Betsy Ellen was, not what she claimed to be ; but the thought that some thing was wrong, caused by the tone of her iniiw. e.ame -suddenly into my mind. In a moment I felt conscious of dangor and of j my responsibility, and that the sooner I : could get rid of my new acquaintance the j better. "All right," said I. "I I fir it.'1 "We bad just come in sight of one of the watering troughs. I led the horse up to it, i and told Betsy Ellen to slide off and sit down on the end of the trough while I did ! as she had suggested. Placing the bag on the saddle, I first took au extra strap and j made it fast, then spread her old shawl on I top of it. "There's a gay seat," said I, stepping upon the side of the trough to pat it down; j and before the woman could, be aware of j what I intended, I had jumped on the j horse and gave him a blow which caused j him to bound into tho middle of the road. "Oh, plare stop, an' for the love of mer- cy don't bo roouin' away from me I' plead- : ed the girl, starting up and dropping her j bundle. i I glanced back, but gave my horse an- i other blow ; seeing I was really off my j persuasive fiiend suddenly changed her conduct. Quick as a Hash out came a pis- , tol, and whiz went a ball fiom it within , two inches of my ear. But old Jed was already on a gallop. AVe went round a ; bend iu the leafy road, and tbat was the . ! last I saw of "the Province Girl" that day. ; Officers were sent after tho would-be rob- ' bor, but they could not catch him. I The second winter after this my father . put a stage, (a large double sleigh,) drawn j by a span of horses, on the mail route. In ', place of old Jed, I now drove the stace and carried the mail also. I had plenty of light freight and express matter, and was ', often "full" of passengers. My route had ; been lengthened, and extended beyond ; T to a new place, which ws called '; 1 u0 "srP'y dPot One day in February I had three passen- ' ger. two choppers going to work, and a j tvell-dresscd young man, who sat well muf- "ou u'- ,ur i""" "u'u 1 I stopped at D for the passengers to ! w&rm themselves and get dinner, and this young man was so loug eating his, that I had logo into tho dining-room, to hurry him up. He sat at the table with his back and walked out. I didn't know what to do. "F.etsy EI- len was the only passenger from I) to the lumber yard, too. Ho bad consider ble to say. He probably knew me well enough; that is, he knew I was the boy ' hm ue bft fooled and tried to rob of the mail bag. II is name, be told me, (this timo) was Gleaou. ne was a professional "scaler," on bis way up to saale or survey ! the winter's cut of lumber at the landings i on the river. He bad bis "calipers and other instrument with him. I folt nn comfortable enough, but kept quiet. I am sure I nevsr sufle'ed so much from foar iu all my life as I did in going up from D tbat afternoon. The whole of the way I bad to sit with my back to "Betsy Ellen," and of course I expected every moment be would give me a blow on the bead and rob the stage. He did not, however, but in- I 6tead he was a very quiet passenger. Tbat night at the depot, I found out that bi name actually was Gleason, and tbat be really was their regular lumber scaler ard was hired as such. But I knew be was "Betsy Ellen" all the same. Hi voice and the peculiar glance of bis dull dark eye were only too well fixed in my memory ever to be foreotten. Next day at L I first told the post- master there, and we then went and got ' and planted them in bis yard, where they out a warrant for the arrest of Gleaacn.

They became later, how Gleason was s-caling two miles above the j ever, a very nnpleasant missile in the bands 'depot, at one of the lumber camps. The jhcriff took two men and west up to the , bim. But he took it very coolly.. II sat till for a noraenr, wWen be began to laugh and laughed so violently that it seemed as if be never would stop. The sheriff took bim d-i wn to D that night, and the next mornvsg be bad bis ex- day. ne bad been stopping tip at C- a town ten miles beyond O , and was owing bills there.

The rascal told all this in such a humorous way that it caused a good deal of laughter. The lumbermen were all his friends. The case was dismissed and Gleason actually dis- charged-after I had fairly caught him!

I drove the stage for three years longer ; then, at the age of twenty-one, I wenton the new railroad, the X. A. & E. line, where in time I became a conductor. Goiug from St. John to Bad gor, my train passed the station called Mattawamkeag at about four o'clock a. m. Running down from Kingbani, I took up tickets for Mattawamkeag. The passen gers were very often asleep. One morning I had to waken a man who was curled upon two seats sleeping soundly. "TickctF, tickets !" I called to him. lie roused up, swore a little, and began to fumblo in his pockets. At last he fonnd his ticket, and held it up to mo between his thumb and Snger. I had tho lantern turned full upon it, and there, held against the ticket, was that never-to-be-forgotten red thumb with no nail upon it. "One moment," said I, as I held the , lantern to his face. It was Gleason. "O, ho !"' I exclaimed, "Betsy Ellen, we meet again.'' lie jumped up with an oath. But I was , now no longer a boy. Determined that j "Betsey"' should not escapo me again, I . seized him by the collar, thrust him down j into the seat and called two brakemen.

A cor respondent of the Bangor VThig tells a story about the late Judge Kent that is interesting. A case of burglary was being tried before him. The prisoner's name waa Cowdry, and the evidence showed that he had cut a hole through a rubber tent iu which several persons were sleeping, large J enough to admit his arm and head, and had abstracted several articles of value. His counsel took the ground that the pri soner, having only reached into the tent, had not ''entered'' it, and that on this technicality tho defendant should be dis charged. In his charge to the jury, Judge Kent, with a grim smile, alluded to the i plea of the prisoner's counsel, and instruct- . ed them tht if they were in doubt as to the guilt of tho whole man, they might j bring him iu guilty as far as they judged . the evidence would wairant, and tho jury, after a brief period of consultation, brought iu a verdict against Thomas Cowdry, tho prisoner at the bar, of guilty to the full letter of indictment as to the right arm, his right shoulder and his head. And the Judge sentenced the arm, the shoulder and the head of said Thomaa Cowdry to im prisonment at bard labor in State prison for the term of two years. The prisoner might do with the remainder of bis body what he pleased. "Where Tomatoes Were First Eate. -It is a Newport tradition that tomatoes j were first eaten in this country in about i 1S23, in a bouse stillstanding on the comer of Corne and Mill streets. About that time there came here an eccentric Italian paint er, Michael Felice Corne. He bought a scable on the street now called for bim, fashioned it into A dwelling-house, aud " there lived and died Previous to his com- ing, and long after, tomatoes, then called ! latcd clearing.

Iu , 1800 he was seen by a pioneer settler of Jefferson county, drifting slowly down the j Ohio river in two canoes, lashed together. I and loaded down with apple seeds. These ! he was transporting westward, for the pur- j pope of creating orchards upon the furthest ; verge of white settlement. Entering tho 1 ; Muskingum river at Marietta, he passed by ! various tiibu'.niies to the head ot naviga- i ' tion in this county. Still a region of for- ; : est-crowned hills aud great valleys, arid ; ; possessing a romantic beauty which rail roads and hu6llinn towns and cities have , not served to obliterate, tho wild sur- i . roundings and primal silence of the verita , bio wilderness must have been tenfold ; more picturesque to the eyes of Appleseed Johnny in those catly days, j In this instance, as in others afterward, , Johnny selected the most feriile spots in ; the rich loamy grounds on the banks of the ; creeks for this purpose ; planting often as ' high as sixteen bushels of seed to the acre, 1 and enclosing the grounds with a slight 1 fence or guird of brush, lie then left the ; place until the trees had in a measure ; grown.

Drawing ; forth his few tattered books, he would i-n-: large upon the beauties of his faith until his hearers caught the glow -j( Ms enthusiasm, I while scarcely comprehending his words. So anxious vs he that every on should I read his hocks, and so limited was their ; number, that lie divised an original method by which one hook was converted into a Sorial. Dividing a volume into many pieces. each containing a single chapter, he left one at a log house, and on a subsequent visit, j furnished another fragment, continuing this j process until the whole hook had been read. : In this suv he was enabled to furnish r-.-.d- i ing matter to several families at the satin- i tlini. lid Ulnv uiAn llitrh ill lite lnl't n HL 1 in the fact that tho first installment given I . . , , , ,. i to some illiterate backwoodsman some. lines j h x to be lhe ,ajlt fracl-lon ,.f :.. ! volume, and the unfortunato recipient w thus compelled to read the ho. tbron jih backward.

He w as a small, wiry man. quick ami restless in his motions i SU,1 "0versat-on ; his beard, though t ! was "inhaven ; his hair v as long and dark and his eves black and sparkling. He , lived lhe roughest life, camping out in the woods, or ii sleeping in a house, occupying j tj le floor. His dress was au indescribable medley, composed of the cast-off clothing he had taken in exchange for apple In is. Iu later years he seemed to think even this kind of second hand raiment too luxurious, and wore as his principal garment an old coffee sack which ho had bought and iu the bottom and sides of which he cut holes to thrust his head and arms through. This h pronounced "a very serviceable, cloak and rrrvi-iii rlrit Vi ii rf O a T- v man no .1 n- n r ' j He .arcely ever wore ;Uws exvpt in vi'n ter ; but, if uaveliug in the suamer time, a,i tlie r0ugh road hurt his feet, he would make himself a rude pair of sandal. n,; . never purchased any covering for his feet.

His headgear w as constructed j on a like economical principle. For a loug J time he wore tho large tin dipper in which j he cooked his mush while traveling. I'.ut ! as it. failed sufficiently to protect his eyes ! from the sun, he constructed a hat of paste ' lioard, with an immense peak in front, and ; bent down at the sides to shade his face. from the heat, thus securing an article that ! combined ruefulness with economy, and ( which became his permanent fashion.
