Crush it to atoms and re duce it to ashes, and the winds will gather it up and propagato it from tho fragments. Its cxistanco is covoal with liberty. Tlio con- trivencoof man may for a time pervert jus- tica, but it will always triumph, and come forth clad in a panoply of steel Tho sun had almost disappeared, leaving here and thoro a fow golden traces tho resi dua of former grandeur. The miners' work was finished for the day, and the miners had gathered in a crowd awaiting tho arriy. al of tho mall-carrier, whose coming to the district was liko a shower of sunbeams after gloomy darkness, The mining district hero referred to was situated on the Pacific coast, where men made fortunes in tho day and lost them at night Every class was here represented the ignorant and the educated, tho refined and the brutal all on a common level As the postman rode up he handed tho miners several packages of IctUrs, and one to Henry Stanton, the most successful miner in tho;dlstrict. Mr. Stanton immediately repaired to his cabin door and opened tho package letters from tho old home, from his father and Eugcna Holmes, hisjbetrothed, But here let us explain Hcnrv Stanton's prtfcenco in this mining district. Ho was formerly of Cincinnati, Ohio, where his fathdf still resided, wealthy and well I. re - spected. A disgrace had fallen upon Henry which caused him to leave his home to seek his fortune away from tho sccno of his hu miliations. Ho had been a cashier in tho banking house of awell-known firm in Cin cinnatl, and was trusted by this firm with Implicit confidence, frequently being left in charge of the bank for months. He was a skillful manager and perfectly honest in all his operations. At ono of the monthly examinations by the trustees on tho condi tion of the bank, lie was found defaulter to the ambunt of $10,000. Tlio trustees con sidered this some mistako in the cashier's account and gave him a week to readjust tho error, llcury worked hard to make the cor. rectioti, but it was Impossible for him to discover where the error was. The; eyidenco was clear against him, and ho was placed under, arrest. His fall was a great shock to all who knew him. His father paid tho amount to which ho was a defaulter, bcliey. ing, however, that his was guilty. Ho was shunned by his former friends, who basked in tho sunshine of his prosperity, and, when that sunshino failed, like summer birds, they sought other climes. Tlio beautiful young lady to whom he was eogrfwl Id be married Within a few weeks was forbidden to speak to him, although in her heart she believed he was innocent of tbo crime of which the evidence against him showed him to be wh";a ,ie declined ; and he also refused to guilty. As soon as ho gained his liberty he relurn ,10m0 tm h" innocence was fully cs socured a secret interview with Eugene, and '"ned. and preferred remaining at the there denied his guilt and declared one day he would bo known as an innocent and honest man. They both pledged to remain faithful to each other until thev almiiM m( again. They parted, Henry to bravo tho dangers of tho " far West." Leaving be- hind him nil that was near and dear, Henry started west, with no particular purpose or object in view; but nt length drifted with the tido of humanity Into a noted mining distrct, and by dint of hard work and good fortune he accumulated an immense sum of money, and out of this fortune ho paid his father the $10,000. Henry had just received letters from his old home, and among them ono from his betrothed. She urged him to relurn and establish himself in his home, and live down the disgrace on his name. The assurance she cave him. and the clear evidence of hcrfidelityto him, I shook the resolution he had formed never to return home until the stain on his char acter was completely removed. She urged as he now had the means he could the more effectually prove his Innocence. Her argumeut was supplemented by the fact that Eugene's father had determined that she should wed another, one who had been installed In Henry's place as cashier In the bank from which he had been expell ed. This man's father, Judgo Willson, was President of the bank, and made his son Frank assistant cashier under Henry Stan ton. Henry often thought that his assistant had something to do with his account, but as he hod no evidence ho prudently kept lent. Now that Frank Willson had not nly secured bis position in the bank, but was about to deprive him of his sweet Eugene, he hesitated no longer. On the following day he sold his rich I mining claims to a company for $80,000, and this sum, added to the amount he had prudently saved while working tho mine, made a neat fortune of $110,000. He wrote to Eugene that be would be in Cincinnati three months, from the date of his letter, and also to his father, Inclosing both letters to his father. Settling his business, Henry started home to brave tho storm he well knew awaited his return, but, being confident his Inno cenee would bo established after tho storm had passed, he did not heaitato. Sugene'i father was more determined than ever that sho should wed Frank Will son. Ho was deaf to her entreaties and tho time- for tho ceremonias was set, about two weeks after tho timo when Henry Would re turn. Tho news that Henry Stntttotl tlia de faulter, was reluming Tery rich caused quite a flutter in tho city. His friends tcle- graphcd to him that tho bank officials tvero lntctldiHg to arrest hifrf en bis return, and jimty stantofl, UHdcciddtl what courso to puestte, did Hot go direct to Cincinnati, but went to Columbus to consult with a college friend, who wtis at tho time an able and in flllctltial lawyef. Henry relating his case- soon enlisted the lawyer's sympathies, "There's ono thing, Mr. Stanton," stlid Mr. Carpenter, the lawyer, " that is essential in this case, that is money, and plenty of it, too." Henry carelessly throw dswn a check for" $25,000, and remarked: '' There's enough for present puposcs." A detective was immediately called, and in a few nunuws understood tho situation, He asked Mr. Stanton: "Who was connected with the bank when tho default was discovered?" "Assistant Willton, and an office boy," answdfed Stanton. " How old was tho boy I" "-ut 18 years." " Can you tell what month and week the error in your account occurred?" again in- I quired the detective. I " The last week in January, 1 It was aweod that Mr. Stanton should rt. 1 turn to Cincinnati and bo placed undef ar rest, and then bail himself out. Ho was I then to telecraph to tho detcctivoi who was to repair to Cincinnati, and, in the guise of a financial reporter, examine tho bank books. According to agreement Mr. Stanton took the train for Cincinnati, and registered his name at one of tho principal hotels in tho city, and then sent his card to the bank, He took a newspaper and sat down to await result, He did not have long ta wait, for within half an hour ho was arrested, waived ex amination, and his bonds were put at $3,000, which ho deposited and was set free. He sent a dispatch to the detective, who came on tho midnight train. On the following morning Mr. Stanton was apprised of his son's return. Tho old gentleman forgot his belief in Henry's guilt, and rushed out to find hilil. Henry was consulting with tho detective, who had just made an examination of tho bank accounts, when his father came. They ""teach other cordially, and Henry told m3 miner ne naa come oacu to prove his in- nxoe, and related his plans. His father boped for tho best, but seemed doubtful, Ir' Stanton was convinced of his son's inno cence ani ofl"6rei1 monoy to any amount, nole1' 110 'Tcquentiy met the detective, at eacu occasion in different disguise, but all he coul1 8' out of hI,n W1 thst ho had a bard case, but hoped to mako somethinir out bcforo 1,11 triaI Henry had not scon Etlgeno since his rc- turtt( but had received her words of en couragemeftt and hope. She Was to bo married to Frank Willson on the same day in which his trial was to tako place, and Henry offered the detective $1,000 to delay the marriage Until after the trial, but ho con1 sldcrcd this impossible. Henry Stanton seemed convinced that his case wos hopeless, and Was tempted to givo up in despair. At length the day of bis trial came and the court-room Was filled to its utmost capacity. In another houso Eugene stood mechanic- ally obeying tho directions of her dressing- maids, her young heart dumb with anguish, face bloodless and lips parted as if to cry out In tho agony of her soul: "Will noono save mo ?" les, there is one to save "Justice at last." Every voice was hushed when Henry Stanton entered the plea of "Not Guilty," The testimony on the part of the prose. cution was strong for his conviction, while the defendant introduced but few witnesses, and these only testified to his good charac ter. Conviction seemed inevitable. Counsel for defendant demanded that tbe office boy and the books of tho bank should be brought to the court-room. An officer was dispatched for, and brought them in. Mr. Carpenter took the books ; turned to the cashier's account in the last week in January, three years previous ; asked the boy where he was on the morning of ouch a date ; boy answered in the bank with Assistant Cashier Wilson t counsel asked what tho assistant was doing; boy said assistant was looking through the accounts of Henry Stanton of the day before. Mr. Carpenter passed over to the jury and handed them the open bank books, and told them to examine a certain entry in each book, at the ssme time handing thorn a powerful magnifying glass.

The Clilxella' Cornet Hand, Eblton CiREto Aovooatii In following tho career of tho Citiiens' Cornet Band from its inception over n year ago to tha present time, wo must say that it has passed through a stormy arid unpleasant existence, We do not proJWso to criticiso all of tha various systems that have beon adopted from timo to time, to financially and other-, wise improve the condition of the band but we do think that a few remarks would be appropriate upon the principal ones. In the first place, wo think that sounder judge ment and stability should bate been exer cised b Us managers at the start, both in the choice of members and in tho adoption of constitution and by-laws. Tho chief re quisite in membership should be that all should belong tn tho same town or borough, and'the next that they should at least be ftbloto pay for their teaching. The by-lawa ought to contain rules that the members: could observe, without being liablo to break them tho first time thev annear in nublie.aa Was the case With this band, thereby losing the confidence of the public and disgracing themselvesi Another grcatdfawbaek seems to have been tho incompetent teachers, who hate been procured fhieily because thoy Were cheap. Not tho least of (heir tmulilM was tho confusion caused by some malcon tents who, having learned what they did know at other people's expense, assumed to control tho working of tho band, and, not succeeding as well as they desired, they withdrew and joined another organization in a neighboring town, thinking by those actions to break tin tho well-nirii disnirited Citizens' Cornet Band. But, thanks to tho plucky few that remained faithful, they went to work with a will to secure now members; and the noblest Roman of then all, in reorganising the band, Was our Jim.

IiEliloniox, May 28, The Financial Question, Em To a Cabdom AnrociTx: In last week's issue of your paper I noticed that "Anon" took exception to my epistle In the previous issue, I will try to answer him. In tho first place ho says the greenback is not a legal tender. I did not say that It was, but now say it Is. The greenback Was worth less than a dollar during the late civil wan Labor and Various Products then seemed tn command high prices; but really papcf money had depreciated in value, because the people had lost confidencelntbe govern ment. "Anon" says, "Let there bo fair play in the matter," and yet hardly attempts to arguo fairly himself. Tcrhaps, tho Words of far more able men than either I or "Anon" are will haVo a little weight in sustaining mo jirupoeiiion inai iuo issuing oi an Irre deemabie paper money would bo foolish. Washington says: Somo other States are, In my opinion, falling into tho Very foolish and wicked plans of emitting paper money. I cannot but lament from my inmost soul that lust for iwpcr money which appears in some parts of tho United States.

Madison's Works, vol umo 1, page 243. The evils of a redundant paper circulation are now manifesttoevery eye. It alternate ly raises and sinks tho value of every man's property.

It converts the business of society into n mere lottery I While those who distribute the prizes nrewbolly irnsjunsiblo to the people.
