AN.rtipitzsa MESSERCiER STORY
In the summer of 1863 I was serving as
messenger on the British and American
(now called.Cimadian) Express. My route
lay between Portland and Scmth Paris,
though my office was in Norway, a mile
and a half distant from the latter station,
between which two points I traveled with
my own team. As three and sometimes
four lines of stages connected with the
Grand Trunk road at South Paris, through
all of whichlour express did business, my
route was an important and a responsible
one.
It was on Saturday, August 20th. I ate
my dinner, and then went into the Port
land office to get my freight and my orders
for the country. After the porter had taken
out the various 'tinkles consigned to my
charge, Mr. Prindle, our agent, called me
to his desk, and exhibited a package, direc
ted to a party in South Paris, containing
three thousand dollars.
"Do you know that man 2" he asked me
pointing to the superscription.
•
"Yes," said I.
"Do you know where he lives P
"Yes."
"How far from your depot ?"
"A mile and a half, I should think, on
the old Rumford road."
"Well," he pursued. "I don't care to
have this lay over at tie depot, and you'd
better deliver it yourself."
I told him I would do so.
I may here remark that we had no regu
lar office at South Paris. It was my cue.
torn to deliver such matter as was consigned
to parties living in the village, within a
radius of half a mile or so, while parcels
going beyond those limits, I usually left
with the .station master to be called for.
Norway, It was n.a-t-ftwoill
by our patrons that we did not deliver ex
press matter beyond the limits of the village
corporation.
As I was leavlng the office, I observed
one of the porters, assisted by a clerk, lift
ing a soldier Into the wagon of the Kenne
beck Express. "Bald soldier's right leg was
swathed in thick bandages from the knee
to the toes, and he hobbled upon crutches;
his uniform was worn and soiled, and he
appeared to be one who had seen hard ser
vice.
'Poor fellow," said the clerk, as he met
me upon the sidewalk. "He's got two
minnie balls through his leg—wounded at
Gettysburg. He started down from the In
ternational for the depot on his crutches,
but be gave out here."
At that time, when the great battle was
yet a thing of the present, a hero of Gettys
burg was as object of interest to me ; and I
felt almost like taking off my .hat to the
war-worn and shuttered Veteran ; but he
had gained his seat, and was driven away
before I bad opportunity to salute him.
At the depot I flaw my frieght safely in
the car, and after we had started I took a
turn through the train. I forted our Get
tysburg hero butte forward car, occupying
a whole seat, with the rim of his old
slouched hat pulled down over his face,
probably asleep. Poor fellow ? He was
weak and weary. :
We arrived at South Paris at half past
three p. m. , where I found ny team wait
ing for me-a CoMmon express wagon
drawn by a horse which I considerej as
rather superior to express horses in general.
As the last package was placed In the wag
on, I observed the veteran of Gettysburg
hobbling toward me, on the platform.
I had strapped op the tailboard, and was
on the way to my, seat, when he addressed
me; _
W. F. WILLIS.
"Say, my friend, which way ye going ?"
"Just round the village, to deliver
freight," I told bite.
He looked disappointed.
"I was in hopes * " lie said, "that I should
find someixidi golbg up the old Rumfo
road a piece. Hyleg is about played out."
I remembered the package I ha& to de
liver on the same load, and . ' told him if he
didn't mipd riding around through the vil
lage, I would take bim as far as the old
Jordan Place. He said that it would be a
great help to him. ; So with the assistance
of the station baggage master, I helped him
to his seat He wits a large, heavy man,
and as he seemed unable to help himself in
climbing, the Mc; of hoisting - him up was
not a light one.
• "I shall come down easier," he said,
Sighing. . •
"Au 084," I rallied, ee I took my seat

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
lurch of the wagon, one of the wheels hav
ing dropped into a dough-hole upon that
aide on which the war-worn and shattered
hero sat. I expected, when I had recover
ed my own balonce, to see him pitched from
his perch ; but not so. I saw that bandaged
leg, which first had been as useless ass dead
man's leg, suddenly straightened out ; the
swathed foot was planted flatly and square
ly upon the board ; and with a . full pressure
upon the disguised limb be held himself, and
regained his equilibrium.
I pretended not to notice, ; but I had no
ticed and reflected. That right leg, so care
fully nursed, was as stout, and as strong,
and as free for use as my own. Had the
fellow taken all this trouble of deception for
the sole purpose of getting a ride? I could
sot believe it. Had he done It for the pur
pose of exciting sympathy that he might
beg with better success? He did not look
like a man prone to beg. Then why was
t ?
I had been in my presen , position of mes
senger nearly two years, ,d as I never
' went upon my route with more or less
money entrusted to my ca I had learned
to be suspicious. This co io had been pre
sent when Prindle gave me tile money pack
age of three thousand dollars, and had pro
bably overheard the agent's directions.—
He meant to rob me, or he had come with
me for that purpose. I looked into his face;
and now that l regarded him no mare as a
war worn veteran and hero, I discovered
him to be an ugly and repulsive looking
person. And he was a powerful fellow, to
boot—l shall say, almost twice as heavy as
myself. But I was not to remain long in
doubt.
We had entered a secluded part of the
road, with a deep wood upon my left hand,
when my companion drew a rev'lver from
his pocket and pointed the muzzle towards
me.
"Give me that pocket-book of yours !" he
commanded. "Don't make no words!—
Give it up or die ! Quick !"
My pocket-book, beside the three thou
sand dollar package, contained full two
thousand dollars belonging to parties in
Norway, My instinct was born of office.—
I thought more of the property entrusted to
my care than of myself. Jost then I heard
wagon wheels in the distance—something
coming up behind us : Should I try and
wait for the coming team, or should I try
and gain the next house. Just beyond was
the brow of the hill and at the foot of the
hill a farm-house. I attuck my horse with
the whip, and as he leaped from under the
blow the ruffian caught the reins with one
hand and grasped my throat with the other,
the pistol falling upon.ffie footboard as he
did so. As soon as he had given my cravat
a twist or two that stopped my breath, he
let go the reins and made a grasp for my
pocket-book, thinking no doubt to seize it,
then leap from the wagon and make for the
woods. - And this he might have done but
for an accident, for he was a perfect Her
cules in comparison with me.
When my assailant let go the reins I had
sense enough to catch one of them—the
near rein—and gave It a smart pull, which
movement brongnt the horse so suddenly to
the left that the wagon overturned, and we
split out into a muddy ditch—l upon the
top of the robber. In the coarse of my
struggles nay cravat gave way, and I was for
a moment free n bat the ba.t........11.45ugUi,
me by the leg, and had brought me to the
earth, when the team that had followed us
drove np, and I recognized Sumner Burn
ham and his son—two of the best detective
officers in the State.
My friend had not thought of the ap
proaching wagon ; but he saw it lIQW, and
when he observed it had stopped, he would
have leaped away ; but now it was my turn
to try the leg game; and I caught him by
the ankle and tripped him up ; and before
he could regain his feet Otho was upon him,
and very shortly afuerward old Sumner him
self, with his two hundred and eighty
pounds of compact, leviathan 'c rporosity,
laid his huge hand upon the villain's
shoulder.
"Well, well, my boy," said Burnham,
when he looked into my hero's face, "I'm
afraid I've interrupted another of your lit
tle games. What were you up to here ?"
As he spoke he snapped a pair of handcuffs
upon my war-worn veteran's wrists.
The latter gave one more look into the
ruddy face of the Cyclopean officer, and then
subsided. - -
I told my story in a very few words, af
ter which Mr. Burnham informed me that
my hero wasp notorious rogue. He had
'never been to the war, bat had enlisted four
several times, and 'lumped" a big bounty
each time. He had also robbed a sutler at
Augusta, and done various other wicked
things. A telegram had been sent from
Portland to Norway, informing Burnham
the rascal was on the outward-bound train.
"The telegram did not reach me," said
Mr. Burnham, "until after the train had left
South Paris. I telegraphed to Bryant's
Pond and to Bethel, and I' was thinking to
wait for the next freight train,. when Dun
ham, the baggage master, told me of the
man who had ridden off with you. When
he bad described him I knew you had my
man ; so I had only to find your track in or
der to be sure of his."
I wW only add that my wagon watt not
seriously damaged, and while the officers
turned back with the bounty-jumping, sta
ler-robbing hero, I drove on, and delivered
the money-package safely to its owner; and
furthermore, that from that day to this I
have made it a rule never to allow a stran
ger a seat by my side upon my express wa

MY DOG SPORT
BY XXV. 'MOIL STRIZY
I have always loved dogs, and dogs have
always loved me. I cannot recall a time in
my life when I was afraid of a dog, and I
never knew a dog to be cross to me. We
understand each other. Dogs, like people,
soon find out who are their friends,. and all
the sympathy of their dog nature warms
up to them. I endure cats. I fancy birds.
I like horses. But I love dogs with a real
human love. I have been_ the owner of a
good many, and their memory ilk fragrant
with me yet. There was lino, a wciolly
spaniel, tricky and mischievous. There
was Lion, a great red, affectionate New
foundland. I saved his lite once when I
was a boy 18 years old. A savage buldog
bad seized him by the throat and was chok
ing hioi to death, when thrust my hand
in the bull-dog's; mouth, pried it open, and
released my friend -- ; but the tierce jaws I
had opened closed on my hand, and the
teeth went through the flesh. I have the
scar yet. Then there was Jack, a glossy
halt breed setter, who sucked eggs ; and
Trusty, a little lively cur, who laughed all
over his face when I came home and cried
real tears when •I left. He was a perfect
sensitive plant. And Tarry, the ugliest of
ugly Scotch terriers; but who would howl
in the most fearful manner if I made be
lieve to cry before him. I lost him once ;
but several days after, as I was looking in
at a shop window I felt a dog's nose rub
against my boot, and looking down I saw
Tarry. Tae moment he caught my eye he
bowled his most joyful howl, and followed
me home. Then there was Rover an En
glish pointer. Ije was a thief. He Would
dig up and carry off my rose-bushes as fast
as I could plant them. He would steal
bones and cooked potatotes and hide them
away in his den. He would watch the
baker, and steal the loaves of bread which
were left at my neighbor's house. Once I
saw him bury a bone; and after he left I
dug it up, and smoothed the ground over as
before, to see what he would do. The next
morning there was a hole big enough to
bury two dogs in, and Rover still at work
for that bone. Then there was Snap, a
cunning little spaniel ; and Rolla, another
spaniel, as black as midnight. He lost his
life by swallowing an India rubber ball
which he was playing with. I dissected
him after his death, and found the ball ; but
it was poor satisfaction. Then there wss
Rosy, a setter ; and Dash, a noble hunter,
with the keenest nose fur scenting birds I
ever saw. I could write a volume about
him. And last and best and loveliest of all,
Sport, a cocker spaniel Be was as hand
some as a picture--of a rich brown color,
with large liquid eyes, full of inexpressible
tenderness, long silken ears that reached
nearly to the ground, }'alert pug nose, =4
square, intellectual : • inikkle was a rare
beauty. People woulellways stop and
look round at him as he passed them.
Thieves tried to steal him ; but he was-too
cunning for them. He understood lan
guage, as farms his range of words went, as
a man. Yes, better,ghan some men I know.
He would watch my every motion, and at
the slightest hint would be off like a shot to
do my bidding. If I would tell him to take
a man's hat off in the street (which I am
sorry w say z dvitV.) ITmau
spring to his shoulders, and bring me the
hat before the man had time to get over his
scare and look around. I would sometimes
leave home having forgotten something.
It would be enough t-3 say : "Sport, hand
kerchief !" "pocket-book !" "gloves I"
when away - be would go, soon after return
ing with the article in his mouth.
I was once bathing in the Delaware.
After I had dressed and had gone a mile
from the place, I found that I had left my
neck-tie. I looked at Sport, pointed at my
neck, and said: "Bring it." Before the
words were fairly spoken he was off, and
in a quarter of an boar returned with the
tie in his month. I rued to play hide and
seek with him. I. would turn him out of
the room, and then hide my handkerchief.
He always beat me. I would put it under
the carpet, inside the piano, stuff it down
behind the sofa-seat. But he always found
it. Once I put it on top of the curtain cor
nice. He had a long hunt that time ; but
at last he mounted on a chair, looked up,
gave a long snuff; then wagged his tail and
whined. He couldn't get it, but told me
plainly enough where it was. One Sunday
night I came home from church very tired,
and thought I would see if Sport could get
my slippers. I took off my boot, and,
pointing.bo my feet, "Sport, slippers!" It
was a new word to him.
He looked at me sharply ; then at my
feet ; Abell away,he went to the bedroom and
brought my nightgown. Seeing my boots
off, and knowing that it was near bedtime,
he thought that was what I wanted." I
shook my head, "No, no ;" and again
pointed to my feet. "Slippers. See!" •
showing the uncovered foot. Away he
went the second time, returning with the
boot jack. I said : "No, no." He looked
at me again most inquiringly, turned his
head on one side reflectively, then dashed
ofr the third time with a sharp yelp. This
time he got them; and oh! how glad and
proud he was when I patted him approv
ingly. He never made a mistake - about
slippers after that. Of all dogs he was the
most faithluL If I put any thing In his
charge, he would guard it for hours, and I
believe be would have sacrificed his life
rather than desert it. Put him beside a
sleeping child, and say, "Watch !"and woe
betide any one who should disturb that
child. One night I went away leaving my
wife alone with Sport. When all was still,
he grew, very uneasy ; came and looked in
the face of his mistress, and whined ; then
went toWard the door. She heard nothing
and bade him be quiet. He obeyed ; hut
soon went to the door again, snuffed there,
whined piteously, and came back to her.
This time he took hold of her dress and
tried to pull her to the door. She followed'
and opened it. He led her down the stairs
to the front door, then whined andscrskit
ed to get out- She still heard nothing, but
opened it to pacify him. The moment he
was out he ran into the back yard, and
barked imploringly. She followed, and
found the water running from the hydrant

him double tale If be would get It ; but It
was of no use. Sport was too much for
him, and even after I bad called him Offduty
he eyed the man suspiciously, and never
left him till the valise was safely home.
His particular delight was duck hunting.
He would go In the boat with us, and when
a duck was shot would spring Into the wa
ter and fetch it to us. His excitement at
such times was intense, but he never
violated the strictest decorum. -He would
lie in the boat at command as quietly as if
asleep, for fear of disturbing the game ; but
the shot was no sooner out of the gun than
he was in the water after the duck. Occe
only was darling Sport disobedient. He
was subjected to a temptation too great for
even his great dog heart. We bad sailed
across and down the river in a large yacht.
When anchoring, we took a small skiff - to
hunt in the reeds for ducks, bidding Sport
remain on the yacht and keep watch. We
were gone about an hour, had fired a few
shots, then returned to the yacht. But
Sport was not there. We called him,
whistled for Lim, fired our guns; but in
vain. 'ire spent hours seeking for him
among ties reeds, ruthless search! He
was not there. We thought him lost to us
forever, and with sad hearts at nightfall re
turned home. But Sport was ahead of us.
Lie was lying on the grass at the landing,
waiting; but too weary to rise even. He
could only wag his dear tall, and that faint
ly. We saw at once what the matter was.
He bad heard the shooting While on the
yacht, and in a delirious moment of excite
ment had forgotten the command to stay,
and jumped into the water. Not being able
to swim through the reeds to us, he return
ed to the yacht ; but the sides were too high
for him to climb up. After probably many
fruitless efforts, he started for home on the
side of the river—a long swim against the
current ; but he accomplished it. It cost
him dearly, though. He grew quite deaf
and lost his ambition from that day. Soon
afterward he was wanking on the railroad
track, and, unable to bear an approaching
train, he was run over and killed. How
sad we were. I felt that I had lost a friend
to whom I was all the world. More sincere
tears were never abed •ver a grave than
over Sport's. I wonder sometimes if there
is no after-lite for one like him. The line
between his instinct and &Boni's intelligence
was very faint. The depth of his affection
was wonderful. Poor, dear Sport! Would
that my arms were around thy neck, and
thy soft, silken ears were - resting on my
cheek now I Thy place can never be filled'
THE DOGMA OF INFALLIBILITY
The printed scheme of the dogma of In
fallibilty has been distributed. It contain&
five canons :
1. If any one should say that the ephte,o
pai chair of the Roman Church is norike
true and real infallible chair of Meted
Peter, br that it has not been divinely chos
en by God as the most solid, indefectible,
and incorruptible rock of the whole Chris
tian-Church, let him be anathema.
2. If any one should say there exists in
the world another infallible chair of the
troth of the Gospel of Christ our Lord, dis.
tinct and separate from the chair of Blessed
Peter, let him be anathema.
3. If any one should deny that the di
vine magisterium of the chair of Blessed
Peter is hammy wine true way or eternal
salvation for all men, whether unfaithful or
faithful, whether laymen or bishops, let him
be anathema.
4. If any one should say that each Ro
man Pontiff, legitimately elected, is not. by
Divine right the successor of Blessed Peter,
even in the gift of the Infallibility of mag
isterium, and should deny to any one of
them the prerogative of infallibility for
teaching the Church the word of God
pure from all corruption and error, let him
be anathema.
5. If any oneshould say that general coutr
cilsare established by God in theghuch as a
power of feeding the Divine flock in the
word of filth' superior to the Roman Pon
tiff, or equal to him, or necessary by'Dt
vine institution in order that the magister
ium of the Roman Bishop should be
preserved infallible, let him be anathema.
LIONS ATIAORING AN ACTRESS. —A fright
ful scene, more exciting in ha details than
the very strongest blood and thunder tragedy
that a Bowery audience ever witnessed,
Secured at the Bowery Theatre, New York,
on Saturday night. The performances
were drawing to a close, expectation was
on tiptoe to witness the brave and daring
acts of Miss Minnie Wells with the Puma
lions. That young lady entered upon the
stage, made her courtesy to the audience,
and immediately went into the cage con
taining the lions—the crowded audience
meantime watching the exhibition wish
breathless interest. Suddenly while the
young actress was going through her per
formance with theauimals, piercing screams
•broke the awestruck silence of the theatre,
and the audience were horrified 'at the
sight of a huge lion seizing the young lady
by the throat and lacerating her in such a
frightful manner that the blood poured in
streams upon her drew. The actors and
attendants non the stage rushed forward
and struck at the enraged brute, and final
ly succeeded in awing him to relinquish
his hold upon Miss Wells, who was dragged
from the cage in a fainting condition. She I
was carried home by her parents, and re- I
ceived prompt surgical attendance. The
scene among the audience baffles description.
Several women fainted, and men shouted

they were powerless to prevent. Informs

lug to the veracious historian wl oy, aec. JUL.:.
is before us, Pennsylvania has no better or
higher right to be called the "Keystone
Siete" than this: that when the city of
Washington was laid out a certain bridge
near GeorgetOwn had its arch Cenci' ully In.
scribed with the names of the original this
-teen pines, and that Pennsylvania, having
the central place in the arch, was called the
Keystone by the primitive citizens of those
times, and has continued to be called so
ever since. This is patting the cart before
the horse with a vengeance. We do not
deny, cm:abaft the Telegraph, so much of
the bridge story as describes the 'formation
of the arch, but we do gy (and think It -
strange even that Agouti be necessary for,„ ,
ua to say) that the device of the architect
was but taken from a historical incident of
very great importance. Thermame, In fact,
was derived from the circumstance that
Pennsylvania cast the deciding vote on the
question of American Independence. In
Sanderson's "Lives of the Signers," it is
stated that the vote was taken by the dele
gations of the thirteen colonies. Six of
them voted in favor and BIZ against the
measure.
The delegations from all the colonies, ex
cept one member fto& Pennsylvania, had
voted, and it was discovered that they were
equally divided. Upon WI simple vote,
then, depended the entire question of issu
ing the Declaration of Independence. The .
pitmen!' the delegate upon whom se much
depended was John Morton, and It is a -
name that should never be forgotten. John
Morton voted aye J and the .reed was done.
Thus Pennsylvania, by giving the casting 4
vote, settled that important question, and •
from that circumstance she received the
name of the "Keystone" State—the thir
teenth State—the block, of the arch;
A GOOD story is- told of two . iramen,
