ROASTING A MAN ALIVE.
A TRUE STORY OF IRISH BITRALESit
I was visiting at my grandfather's,
when a little boy;;.' long time ago.—

biirdened with enormous taxation ;

ism rampant; while robbery, outrage
and vagabondiKeroatheAarkcst die,
were matters Ofairoost every day oc

My grandfatbel...n=as reputed ribh ;
one of these Irish farmers , denomina
ted. Middlemen, in go c ed circumstan.
ed. HIS housa,was comfortable," a
goodly4oiaking.manSioh of the cot
tage-order of that ally; substantially
built on the roadside, one. mile from Drombair in the hospitable county of
Leitrirli. ' hie old gentlenaiin wag; tit
the time of - Whi b eh I wiite', about,
eighty yeais bi'ag6, yet sturdy and
active, for a person fib far advanced
in life. His conlort, who was hot my
grandmother, but his wife by second
marriage, was nearly twenty years
younger than his. She was in per
sonal appearance anything but., a
pleasing woman to look on, and was
besides, cursed with a sour temper,
always unhappy, sulky, and dissatis
fied. So very disagreeable was she
to the children of his first wife, that
seldom any of them could be induced
to visit the old family mansion, or en
dure to call her even by the "cold, icy
appellation of stepmother. - Yet,
strange to say, I believe she liked me,
in seam - queer kind of way peculiar
to herself, tholigh I Malt; c,onfess •to
thy shame that• lief cold partiality
Area never drily:rehiprocated.
Besides the-old couple, the other
inmates-of the cottage consisted df 4
middle aged inati df many 'years sof
vitude and a _young girl; brought
-up in the family almost frona infancy.
It "was in the latter end of Septem:
ber, a dark, cold; windy night, abbiit
11 o'eJock ; the old mam-and his wife
had retiked to their chamber, •asleep
ing:root:a:4 the fitifini j the WA

4i-on -t, h e - garret,
ra
and in a short ti e was sound asleep.'
- The girl and I W 're still up at the
kitchen .fire, telling stories of .fairies,
goblins, King's sons and daughters of
good old Irelandiin happy days gone
by. _She was a( fine, fat, - bouncing
young blonde -- ef , about:-twenty-two
summers, fallof good huinor, Irish
ikit, and vivaciff ; hOnerlt• and faith
ful to her old guardian ; devoted to
her religion ; and, I really believe, as
virtuous as a vestal of the Golden
Age. I was at the time•eight or nine
years of age,-4 little slim, spindle
shati ed, whitelle,aded, gabby kind
of codger, iMmddetately fond ,of .list7'
cuing to tales of the inatvellotis, and
as \Tinny pbaselmed an inexhaustible
fund of that kids of lore, and had a
,
most, facinatince way of telling her
stories; it was only natural to suppose
that 1 100 thfgiti; &ntt at.the time
preferred her - seeiety to that of any - -
other living being on the face of the'
earth. ' , , .
The girl's bed steed in a small clos
et off the kitchen fife, it kind of eon
vement sleeping place, calle a pouch,
in farm houses of that ddy i and as I
never . bad, up to this time, slept alone,,
and could not endure the j - dea of ly

It might - r — avt been "'half an-hour af

heard at the front door." --
'Who's there ?'.US.ked the girl, with
a kind of tremulons voice, giving ine
at the d;rethe time i,:sijglit nudge with
. , , .
her elbow to art'est" my attention.
'A friend, *limy; open the door,'
was the reply from rather a genteel
, .
voice outside. - ',
can't till-I-kno* who you are;
and what's youtbneiness,' spoke the
girl, sitting up in the' bed and com
mending to dress herself.
'Rake no fuss, Winny,' said the
voice; 'don't wake the. old mail, a

there; when he used to ride horse back from
Pittsburg to Washington. Besides emigrants
to the far West always made his houee a point in

from his father, who nil doubt, had first acquit.

habit was confirmed. It has been my pleasure,
eine° it little boy, to call in to see old Benny,

sense, even at that time, there was no little bit
ternessa of feeling between the cars, whose pas
sengers had servants and those which had none,
and the new machine men declared that no more
ears should be attached to ans train,..aqeas they
were PROHIBITED front carrying passengers with
SERVANTS. The passengers in the South ears
and many in the other cars, too, would not yield
this prohibition, contending that the track was
made to carry ears with or without servants, as
the passenger might cheese. Buttwo meddle
some men, on two different care, started the
DEVILISH idea that there was an IDEEPRESSI
ISLE coerticr between those having servants and
those having none, and that if the passengers
would agree to allow no more servant care to be
attached, and shut up the servant*, in the old
care, and not let them spurns that they
,would
soon die, or the passengers would be smothered
by their samosa sigi.t, and that either way, this
"irrepressible conflict" woatd,then cease, and
that the'new engine would car ry
,the train t right
straight to the " 'city of Presperiti." In the
meantime the excitement- increased through the
lies and insults of these Yankee machine men.—
Many fistfights occurred ; some guns were fired
by the "irrepressible conflict" men ; hitter en
mity arose against those who had servants, and
innocent, unarmed- people were killed in the
Virginia ear by the fanatical New Machine seers;
and many prominent passengers in . other eat%
who should have"sympathized with the friends
of the. slain in the Virginia car, reeponded
Anion! to the-deed. Well, through the euittieg
of two crafty men—one Abe Lincoln Cliff itneak
er feller named 'Seward—the very rrAn start

passengers were persuaded to try the.new ma
