HUNTINGDOX GLOM, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
Taken in and done for.
it is the boast of the bloods of Arkait'sas
that they are born with skins like allikatois
and strength like bears. They_ -work hard
andthey play hard. Gaming is the recrea
tion most indulged in, and the gaming hous
es of the western part of Arkansas hale
branded it with ansiinenviable notoriety.
One dark summer night, some years ago, I
lounged, as a mere spectator, through the
different rooms of one of them, watching
the various games of hazard that were played.
Some of the players, seemed to have set - their
very souls upon the stakes; their eyes were
blood-shot and fixed from beneath their wrin
kled brows, on the table, as if their everlast
ing weal or woe depended there upon the
turning of the dice; while others the finished
blacklegs, assumed an indifferent and care
less look, though a kind'of sardonic smile,
playing round their lips, but too plainly re
vealed a sort of habitual desperation. Three
of the players looked the very counterpart of
each other, not only in face but expression;
both the physical and moral likeness was in
deed striking, The other player was a young
man, a stranger; whom they call a " green
one," in this and many other parts of the
world. His eyes, his nose, his ;whole physi
ognomy seemed to project, and to be capable
of growing even still longer.
" Fifty dollars more," he exclaimed with a
deep-drawn breath, as he threw down the
stake.
Each of his opponents turned up his card
cooly and confidently ; but the long visaged
here laid, his stake before them, and, to the
astonishment of the three - professionals won.
" Hurrah! the luck has turned, and I crow!"
he cried out in an ecstacy, and pocketed the
cash.
The worthy trio smiled at this, and recom
menced play. The green young man dis
played a broad but silent grin at his good
fortune, and often took out his money to
count it over, and see if each piece was
good.
" Here are a hundred dollars more," cried
the sylvan youth, " and I crow."
" 1 take again cried one of the trio. Tho
youth won again, and " crowed " louder this
time than lie did at first.
- -On went the game; stakes were lost and
♦con. Gradually the rouleaus of the " Grow
er" dwindled down to three or four dollars
or so. It was clear that the gentleman in
black had been luring him on by the best of
decoys—success at first.
" Let me see something for my money.—
Here's a stake of two dollars, and I crow!"
But he spoke now in a very faint - treble indeed
and looked penitently at the cards.
Again the cards were shuffled, cut and
dealt, and the " plucked pigeon " staked his
last dollar upon them.
" The last button on Gabc's coat, and I
cr—cr—. No, I'll be hamstrung if I do!"
lie lost this too, and with as deep a
• 43,e 4 7.0,_he rose from the green
-
curs© •
board.
Tim apartme,at was very spacious and on
tbg w ound floor. There was only this one
gaming table in it, and not many lookers on
besides myself. Thinking the gaming was
over I turned to go out, but found the door
locked and the key gone. There was evi
dently something in the wind. At all events
I reflected that, in case of need, the windows
are not very far to the ground. I returned
and saw the winners dividing the spoil, and
the poor shorn " greenhorn " leaning over
the backs of their chairs, staring intently at
the money.
The notes here deliberately spread out,
one after another. Those which the loser
had staked - were new, fresh from the press,
he said,' and they were sorted into a heap
distinct from the rest, They were two dol
lars, three dollar, and five dollar notes, from
the Indiana Bank and the Bank of Columbus
in Ohio.
" I say, Ned, I don't think these notes are
good," said one of the winners, and examined
them.
" I wish they wern't, and I'd crow," cried
out the loser, very chop-fallen, at his elbow.
This simple speech lulled the suspicions of
the counter, and he resumed his counting.—
At last he took up his last note, and, eying it
keenly, he exclaimed, in a naost emphatic man
ner, " be hanged if they are genuine!—
They are forged !"
" No, they ain't," replied the loser, quite
as emphatically.
A very opprobrious epithet was now hurl
ed at the latter. Ile without more ado,
knocked down the speaker at a blow, capsiz
ed the table, which put out the lights, and in
the next instant darted out of the window,
while a bullet, fired from a pistol, cracked
the pane of glass over his head. lie had
leaped into a small court-yard, with a wooden
palling round it. The winners dashed tow
ards the door, but found the" green ono" had
secured it.
When the three worthies wore convinced
that the door would not yield to their efforts,
and when they heard their "victim" gallop
ing away, they gave a laugh at the trick play
ed them and returned to the table.
" Strike a light,. Bill, and let's pick up what
notes have fallen. I have nearly the whole
lot in my pocket."
The light sooamade•its appearance.
" What! none• on the. floor?. Capital ; I
think I must have them all in my pocket
then ;" saying which he drew out the notes
and laid them on the table.
"Fire and furies! These are the forged
notes ! The rascal has whipped up the other
heal, I"
While all this was going on, I stepped tow
ards the windoW, but had not stood there long
before I heard the clanking hoofs of a horse
beyond the paling, and a shout wafted into
the room, " Sloped for Texas !"
The worst part of the story remains to be
told:—lt was my horse on which the rogue
was now galloping off.
