I was bp:nrdr.g to fe I a littlo nervous, for the forest shadows were deepening so fa -t that there was again danger of losing n.y way in which event the prospect of pas-inga she'terless and supperless night in the woods was f.ir more imminent than pleasa nf . I patted .Tuba's neck encouragingly. Tie answered in a good idiomatic Ilor.yhuhiini, "Ave, ave. sir '." and fell into a brisk trot. So we pinerged into thp light of a clearing, further '..tightened by the gleam of a cheer ful tire, visible through the oper. door of a settler's cabin. A loud hallo brought out the proprietor. To rny request, for f.xidand shelte r he yield ed a ready nss"nt : whereupon, dismounting ami removing my saddle bags, in which I had a sum in gold larger lhan I cared to have a stranger know, I handed over .Tuba to our host's hospitality, and. on the latter's invi tation, found my way into the house, whose mistrrss, busied in the preparation of the evening meal, bade me take a chair, hardly glancing up from a venison steak she was broiling on the coals, of which tiie savory odor made full amends for the curtness of my welcome The master of tht cabin reappeared pres ently, and in return for the intelligence that his name was Tofts, receivt .1 information that mine was Touchwood. "Supper is ready," Mrs Tofts announced, '"et up. stranger," added Mr. Tofts. ' "Take trimmin's in vour'n ?" the farmer ; asked, poising a spoon filled with maple sn- j gar over a cup nf rye coiTee, and giving me : an interrogativp glance. I took tho "trimmin's :" and after an invi- : tat'piti to help myspif, which I combined j with ceremony, the meal, to which, on my i part that bet of sauces, hunger. lent a pi- qnent relish, was proceeded with in silence. ! Lookmg up from time to time, I encoun tered more than one sharp glance from Mrs. T'lft's keen grev eyes. She seemed study ing mv face intently, and with a peculiar in terest that puzzled me. Sunier over. Mr. upper over, .nr. urns ami i orew our. chairs before the fire, and the cross examin- i '. ation wliich any back woo Is host would deem i it a breach of hospitality to omit, was enter- ! ; ed on in due form. To the questions touch- j ing "whar I hailed "mought be a goin t servedly : but when it from," and where 1 " I answered unre- j line to inquiring in- ! to the object of my journey and other pri vate matters, I was less communicative not caring to let it out that I was traveling on an errand which necessitated the canyingof a large sum of money. Mrs. Tufts, while clearing off the table, I could not help observing, kept me under a tire of s'deway glances, at the same time lis tening ch.sely to my answers. V. hen the dishes had been cleaned and put away, by a signal whii h.was evidently meant that 1 should not see, she summoned her husband into an adj lining room and closed the door. There was a lengthened whisper- i p" "T'''b auer w .-cu u,e pa,r reu.rncu illiu kiiik se.ii-s iii.llie lilt: llic It was Mr. Tofts' turn now to scrutinize my features, which he did with a broad stare of his round, watery eyes, into which there had come look nearly as penetrating as they were capable of assuming. He had com pletely lost his volubility, however leaving jt to his better half to do the talking; and much tii.? better half she was, too, in the art of putting questions. There was a direct ness in her queries which bafrled evasi;)ii by any means short of downright rudeness ; and before I was aware I was depleted of a fund of knowledge of my personal affairs which it chagrined nie afterwards to think of. I piead weariness at last and asked to bo shown to my bed. Mrs. Tofts trimmed and lit a tin lamp, which ttiu handed to her husband, who stop ped to pick up my saddle-bags. "I'll take them, tf you plea&e," I inter-po-esJ cot cari'i ti-at be ttct;!! tirs:ie the c;E:32t by tits r. f-ijjtt. A meaning looked was exchanged between husband and wife very meaning on her part. Mr. Tofts led the way up the ladder to the loft, in which I found a comfortable looking , bed, and then withdrew without stopping to ; say eood nicht. ' My feelines. on the whole, were far from j easy. Rumors were, afloat about travelers ! heinc murdered for their money, in these j wild, out-of-the-way regions ; and the con-' duct of my host and hostess had not been j such as to inspire the fullest confidence. True, if it came to an encounter, they were but two to one ; and one of the two was a woman : but the male Tofts was a biz. burly ; fellow, and his wie belonged to that sinewv, , wiry tvpe whose strength is not inferior to j i that of the average of men. I bad a pistol but an injury to the lock a few days ago bad rendered it useless. So T was unarmed ami at the mercy of people whose actions had ' aroused serious suspicions. ; rartially undressed -and setting the lamp j on the chair, I threw myself on the oed. My ! fears, tor a time, kept me awake : but fa : tig'.te brought drowsiness, and nt last sleep. 1 I knew not how long it continued before a creaking nf the ladder awoke me. The lamp was just giving its last flicker, and by it I j saw a pair of gleaming eyes peer over the edge of the hatchway. The next instant I was in total darkness. ' Starting up, I turned my ear and listened, ! I beard steps softly descending the ladder, , and then there was perfect silence. I rose and crept to the hatchway, but without ven ; turir.g to lean over, for there was still a dim i light in the room below. But my hearing i was on the alert to catch the faintest sound. 1 "ITidn't. we better get help?" whispered a voice which I knew to be the man's, j "No," returned the woman, "we can man age him oufst Ives." I "lint- be yon sar'in lhar's no mistake?" "Sartin .why, lie's got the money in 'em I very saddlebags; that's thereason that he ' was afeered to let yon heft them." "Well, I am a leetle jubious." , "Yon always was an undecided creter, i P,ob ! Xnw yon jes take your rifle, and I'I1 take the butcher knife. Such a chance to make a fortune won't come again soon." There was someth ing ludicrous, at which I could scarce rrpioss a smile, even in my then extremity, in this backwoods travesty of La.lv Macbeth henpecking her husband ir!a murder. There was a window in the gable. I mi.'ht open it and escp.pe by a leap to the ground. It was my only chance and I resol ved to take it. t'antiousiy groping my way and movingas lightly as a cat, I rcacbp.1 t'ne window. I . tried to oppn it, but thp sash would iuovp npither up nor down I attempted to draw it inward. It gave way suddenly, and fell to ; the floor with a loud crash! I had no time to spring out before a bright light shone thro' the apartment, and quick steps approached from behind. "Stop ! or I'll drill you through," i oared a routh voice. "Stop: or I'll slit vour wizzen, chimed in another. I turned to find myself confronted by Tofts presenting a ritle at my head and his ami able sp.mse holding a lamp in one hand, and a gleaming knife in the other '. "Now. iest vou s'render al discretion bellowed Tofts, keeping his gun leveled. ! "and let Sal tie yer up tight or yer a dead man ! Co ahead, Sal 1" Mrs. Tofts set down the lamp, and pro duced a piece of strong rope. j "Ketch out yer paws, said she, In her de- ; cisive manner. "Yes, shove 'em out," growled Tofts "be- fore T count three, or by the great ficeminy, I'll shoot '. one two ." I extended my hands quick ly. Mrs, Tofts , clapped the knife between her teeth, ami with surprising despatch and skill, bound . my wrists in a way that I should like to see 1 tied on some of those spiritualistic jugglers i who pretend no preternatural gifts in the i matter of tying kinds. When my feet had been confined in like ' manner, T was carried and laid on the bed. ! ."Now, Sal." said Tofts, "yer jest take Ms j yer rifle, and sit yer and watch until I get I back ; and ef this yer galoot budges, jes gin j him a blizzard through the skull cap: and i mind yer keep an eye onter them saddle- hags." Sal took a commanding position, and sat at ease, rifle in hand, while Mr. Tofts climb- ed down the ladder. I J appeal to the woman to know for what fate I was reserved. I had no doubt niv Inmi(.r was resolved on ; but why was it de- laved, and why had the male assassin gone away, and wdiat was his errand ? None fif my questions had received an an swer. The woman had become a sphinx. I seemed to have passed through an age of tf,rt nring and susnense. when the sounrl of j.,,, on ,,le fl(or l)(low aniI the Rsf.pn(lirir, i tl0 bjdcr broke the stillness. " ! "Here's the viilian 1" exclaimed Tofts, j a ,ook , k ovpr . . . o,,,,,,,- ..Snl t got him under guard." "The person addressed advanced, stopped hort, and burst Into a loud laugh. "Hello ! Touchwood !" he cried as soon j as he could speak "here's a go '." My heart gave a leap of joy. It was Tom i Yokel's voice ! ; "For God's sake clear up this mystery 1" 1 I appealed. "It's quite simple," Tom answered. "You ! see there has been a big rew ard offered for a I noted bank robber thought to be prowling in I these .arts with his pi under.

I tlion n..t-RA ..!. , have the honor of being justice of the peace. But let me cut you loose." "Then it arn't bir.i art.T all." ronmEled Tofts. . "And we won't git. the reward!" sighed Sal. "Yon alius wuz a little too dod durned smart !" was her husband's closing com ment. Words ok Wisdom. Adversity borrows its sharpest sting from our impatience. Love is a severe critic. Hate can pardon more than love. Like a Ixiok, man has two blank pages i at the beginning and at the end ; infancy j and old age. No grander thing can a man do than give a helping hand to a young muu who has been discouraged. The number of great thinkers in the world is very small, but the number of men who think th.3y ar& great tbickerj h very AWFULLY FINNY. J AMERICAN NEWSPAPER WIT AND HUMOR. j The fly that walks on oleomargarine is not the butterfly. Zebras are very stylish ; they wear striped stockings up to their neck. The man who was lost in slumber proba bly found his way out on a nightmare. Everything has to pay up some time; even the little chickens have to shell out. It seems odd that they have never called one of the Heading steamers the rcr.nsy coaler. Blest be the tie that won't workaround under one's left ear. "Flow did you find your uncle, Johnnv?" "In apple-pic- order." "How is that?" "Crusty." j pean Statdey was a true genius. It took ; four men and a boy to make out his hand- i writing. : N'n woman should borrow thr- husband of I another ; because it is not good for man to be i a loan. Why are people who stutter not to be re. ( lied upon? Because they are always break- 1 ing their word. ' j Why does a "baby boy" always receive a hearty welcome in a family? Because he never comes a miss. j Why need a woman care who wrote the j declaration that made us free, so long as she ; can get a bustle for fi'tv cents. j The Xorristown Ifcrahl savs that "the ! only good Indians in this country are those i standing in front of cigar stores " i A Bo-ton artist is credited with having 1 painted an oratigp peel on t'ne sidewalk so . naturally that six fat men slipped down on i it. In proof of the assertion that cattle will stray into strange places, we may say that i we have seen a cow hide in a shoemaker's shun. ' The Washington CVt'f V says the storm that took the r. ofs otr the houses in that citv didn't take off the mortgages by any means. : "Help from an unexpected quarter," as the tramp remarked when a twentv fi ve . i cent piece was handed him by 'he "lady of thp house." We are told that the ancient Egyptians honored a cat when dead. The ancient Kgyntians knew when a cat was the most to : be honored. A loan who had tried nearly everything 1 and failed became a shoemaker and prosper ed. He said liyj was bound to be successful at the las'. Another well -planned attempt to take the j life f.f the Czar ha- just been frustrated. An American cucumber was found in his morning meal. We are told "the evening wore on," but ; we ar" not tol l what the evening wore on i that particular occasion. Was it the close of ; a Summer's day ? j Pr. Patterson, f.f Scotland, has discovered that frogs and toads will fight. Well, let'em fight. We'd rather see them fight than hear them sing. It was a funny little boy who, when be 1 saw a dairyman feeding liis cows sa't, said : he thought they didn't salt the butter till after it was churned. A man can drive a hog four miles along a 1 country road with broken down fences, and i keep his temper : but when it comes to put tingon a pair of kid gloves that's tno much. Tl'.e man who d x'sn't get as mad and run as fast to get his cow out of a neighbor's cornfield as be does to get his neighbor's cow out of bis own, hasn't got the answer to the , golden rule. In one of his verses, Oscar Wilde, the a-s-j thetic poet, alludes to "the barren memory 1 of unkissed kisses." A n unkisscd kiss proba , lily is the iiarrenest thing within the range ; of human experience. An elderly resident of Newton was ap 1 proached by an agent for a cyclopedia. "I guess I won't get one." said the elderly eiri : zen, and frankly added, "I know I never ' could lea i ii to ride fine of the pesky things." While preaching from the text : "lie giv j eth His beloved, sleep," a Toledo minister 1 stopped in the middle of his sermon, ' "Brethren, it is hard to realize the won 1 drops, unbounded love the Lord appears to ' have for the good portion of this coiigrega i tion." Adolphus' courage was up. Falling on his ! knees hi: cried : "Angelina, dearest, make ' me the happiest of men by acccepting my ! heart and hand." Casting one look at the large paw Angelina thrilled in every fibre as she replied sweetly : "O, Adolphus, this is more than I expected. A small hoy could not understand why the "leaves" of tables should be so called, see ing that they did not rcsenihle an leaves w ith which lie was familiar. At la.st he suc ceeded in finding it out. "I know 1" he cried. "They are called leaves because you can leave them up or leave them down." 'Don't waste your time in clipping off the branches," said the woodman to his son, "but lay your ax at the root of the tree." And the young man went out and laid bis ax at the rooi of the tree, like a good ami dutiful boy, and then went fishing. Truly, there is nothing so beautiful as filial obedi ence. Dr. Gunther says there are seven thousand species of fish known to men of science. When a man sits on ti.e river bank half a day watching a cork idly floating the ttieatu and comes home with a sunburnt nose ami not a single specimen of these seven thou sand species, be is inclined to think that Dr. Gunther is a patent medicine advertisement. A bit of conversation overheard in the En- ; oiish Crystal Palace: "Them's the crockin ' dues you've read about in Egypt," said the I sire to his little son athirst tor science.- ! "And what's them?" asked the son, point- ' inn I., o.i'ilW ..im.inii.na in IU iim.i nr.nii, : "Oh. them's the crockindiles' kittens," was ! the father's authoritative reply. i When a noor Irishman lav on his deaLh- j bed one of his friends came in to express his j sympathy. He took the poor man's hand i and said, with evident emotion, "Pat, my boy, we must all of us die once." The sick i man turned over in a disgustful frame of mind aud replied: "That's just what both ers me. If we could only die half a dozen times 1 wouldn't worry about this." Emile Girardln, the great French journal ist, used to rise at 4 o'clock every morning j And now he is dead. It is a sad, sad lesson, but let us not torget its warning. Let us but lay our hands on our respective hearts and say that rather than imitate his fault, if it is necessary for us to be at 4 a. m., we will sit up to it. To arise at it ah, this is too too, it is too utterly too. Never be without a bottle of that pure, mild compound, Peruna : take it with first. iSHIHpUTuJ. NATHAN II ALE, THE STY.

There are many persons in this audience who bave heard their fathers and mothers tell f.f the spirit with which Hale taught the Union school at New Loiolon. The school was of thirty-two boys, about half of whom were Latiners, and all '.ut one of the rest were writers. In addition to this he kept for young ladies, through the sum mer, from o'clock to 7 o'clock every morn ing, another school, which was attended hv about twenty scholars.

He was a f.avo'ite in society, handsome, a'hVtie, frank, wide-nwke in the great popular questions whi'-h excited so ciety, arid true to ti e old creed cf every Con necticut man independence in religion, and inflependence in government, he endeared himself to young and old. He had, in his farewell part at New Haven, discussed the ouesfions. whether the eduction of daught ers be not more neg'ected than that of sons.

The regiment wasni.e raised by order of the Jer.-f-ral Assembly that year for born defers. and for the protection of the country at large. In this regiment H'.le was First Lieut. 'Pant, and after the 1-t .f September, Captain. The company consisted of 71 men, anrl was organized before the end of July. Its fir-t s-'rvice was in the neighborhood of New London, but on the 1-lMi of September It was marched, by Washington's order, to the camp at Cambridge. The summer of 177v was a dark season for thp American cause. Hale was a minor no , longpr ; he was of age, and immediately af- ; terward his count ry was new born. Soon af- j terward Howe landed with ids in.meiiss forces. The patriots concluded rightly that i New i'ork would be their point of attack, and General Heath was ordered there with most of the army. II. tie made this march, passing through Norwich on the wav, and thio.ig'i the summer was in active service ' Of this service, a few litters preserve our , chief memorial. The first important duty in which ho was engaged was ihe cut ting out lt an English sloop lad wit:; Mii'iil'. which, though under tin guns of the Asia . man-of-war, was not sate fiom the audacity of the amphibious seamt n soldicts of Webb's regiment. At the head ef a boat load of ' men Hale boarded her at midnight at the pier. Her stores were distributed as eloth ' ing and as food in the army. 1 Washington summoned Knowiton to find some volunteer of intelligence who would : I find ids way into the English lines and bring back trustworthy information. Knowiton ! summoned his own officers, but none of tliem ' volunteered. He tried, it is said, to induce i one of them to undertake the dangerous ser j vice, and received the reply : "1 am willing ! to be shot, but not to be handed. " Tin ii one f.f Ids joungest Captains spoke, and I Nathan Hale said ; "1 will undertake it." He had come Lite le the. me ting. He was ! pal! with recent sickness. His college com panion, Hull, had tried to dissuade, l.i.n, but ! he was determined. "1 wish to be useful," i he said, "and every kind of service for the I public good becomes honorable." Fiomthat iimmeiit there was but little to be told till ! the end. He crossed to Long Island and j obtained the infoinuition he was sent for. 1 lie sought a secluded cove on the north side ' of Long Island, w here be was to waif lor a i boat. A boat landed and he went io meet it. ' It was the boat of a British frigate, and he ' was a prisoner. He was marched tu New York, quickly tried, condemned, and sculeri- ' ced to be hanged next morning. On tiie scaffold, alter his letter to his family iiad . been destroyed, and his request for a Bible had been denied, he sajs: "I only regret 1 ,1;ive 1,1,1 "ne life 10 Rive to my emu - i 1 try 1" It is not to succeed in the field ; it is i to wisdom in the council ; it is to reaoy SP 1 1 - SilC I 1 UCC HI U1P COIIllllv 3 1.111 , 11 IS IO : readiness to die in the country's cause, tuat , j "r pn se.ce here is due to-day, that men , ! seek lor any memorial, and bling together! i -'v-rV wreath of laurel, which may bespeak I ! 1,t'ir gratitude to Nathan Hale.

Ticre lives in sandw ich, Mass., ,n Ihe borders of one of the most charming lake in American, Mrs. K. A. Bur gess, who is at present attracting no litt'e notoriety through th-' relations she sustains to tin1 inhabitants of'this lake. It has been her custom once or twice a d iv for quite a period to feed the fish in this lake, and a few days ago we chanced to be favored with an invitation to witi.es tins novel feast of the tinny tribe. She first splashes the water with her hand, when in a moment there may bp seen ap proaching from every direction hundreds of large shiners, then eels, varying in size from ! one to throe feet in length, may be seen eati ' tieu-'v approaching Next turtles appear on the surface, ten. twei ty and thirty feet ! away, their necks stretched apparently to s"p whether It is friend or foe who is disturb ing the waters.
