Tho hand that praised my fevered brow, Was withered, waited, brown and old, Its work was almost over now, As swollon veins and wrinkles tola. ko longer brushing back my balr, It gently rested on my wrist; Its touch seemed sacred as a prayer, Just by the breath of angels kliflcd, knew 'twas thin, and brown and old, with many a deep yet honored seam, Wearing one llttlo band of gold The only trace of youth s bright dreamt And yet o'er every mark of care, In every wrlnkla's myatlo line, fancied jewels gleaming fair That woro a beauty all divlno, Another hand my flngors pressed 'Twas llko the lily dipped In snow; Yet still It gave a wild unrest A weariness that none should know. There pearls with costly diamonds gleamed, And opals showod their changing glow As moonlight on tho Ico has beamed, Or trembled on the stainless snow. I canght again tbe old brown hand. And smoothed It fondly In my own- woman's, though so old and tanned; A woman's bravo and fearless grown, Aye, It had labored long and well, To dry the tear, to sootho the rain, Its own strong norro to all would tell That life has work which brings no shame. We love the pretty hand that rests, In gentle fondness on our own, With nails llko rosy calyx pressed, upon a i oarly, stainless cone; But sacred Is tbo healthful palm W hich smoothes the Ills which round us oanu; The many feel lis sacred balm, And holy tocms the old brown hand. A TERRIBLE NIGHT. Iu 1S70. Job Morrison, guide nud fron tiersman, was acting assistant pajinastcr in tho Yfcllowstono division, U. S. A., haviDg been temporarily employed to fill the place of nn officer lboss siekneBs prevented Lim from performing the reg ular dntie.4 of tbe poaition, A Buch na- Btaut it becomo necessary for Morrison, early in May, to traverso a largo section of country, visit a number ofoullyiDg posts and pay tbe troops. H was en titled to si guard, but, having visited Laramie, Fetteruian, McKiuuie nnd Koamey, he dismissed his mcort, and prooeeded alona acrojs tho Big Horn Jlountnius by Indian tiails toward Camp Brown, from which point he could strike to the railroad again at Green river, and thus return homo. Tho greater portion of bis fnnda were i xh lusted. Only Mine fifteen hundred dillars remained to be paid nt Camp ilron. He was unknown ns a govern. mant (deer, was a thorn' -mountaineer anl well armed, and be, therefore, bad n i fiur or lieitntlim iu proccediuR as de- tribedwhlt-wiinldibc; far qnickerHhawlq follow the beaten rrau with bis guard.i It whs tbo third d.ij of his solitary ride, toward night, tlmt be struck Bay.' Water' creek, n tributary of tbo Big Horn.. Foi lowing this stream, h" would at lenulb leave tbe mountains and enter upon on open plateau, across whiob a ride of 30 miles would bring him to his destiuatior, Ono more night in the wilderness, and tbe risk of his adventure would end. Musing, as bis horse picked bis way along the obs,oure truil, jet watchful. Morrison ba i ridden a dozen miles, and the shadows of the coming night were vinming him that it was time to camp, wbeu suddenly there fell upon bis trained ear tbe bark of a dog. He halted, and again it sounded, not far in front. He nrged his horse onward, and upon roundiDg a bluff, thirty rods ahead, to bis astonishment ho Baw a small cabin, a white man standing in the door and a bound at bis feet. A veritable hunter's retreat. Morri son's heart was gladdened. Ho rode rapidly forward. 'Eveuin' friend," be called to the man. "Yer deep in tbe timber, bnt it's lucky for me. Can I stay all nifiht?" The fellow raised bis bead, aud a ter rible recollection passed through the pay. maters brum. This newly fonud friend was none otbor than Dan Lamoreaux, a border ruffian of of tbe worst stripe whom be bad known iu Kansas City years be. fore a man Mained with crime, and for whose head a reward was even now of fered. The cabin in the wilderness was a bid ing place, not a home. But the other seemed to regard Mor. rison cs au utter stranger, and lookiug at him onrelessly be drawled: "I reokon ye kin light. Thai's a blank et Inside, and tbe women-lulks'll get ye up sutbin to cat." Women-folks I Morrison stared, but obeyed liis host's injunction, and, dis. mountipg, entered the cabin. A mere but, with hewn logs for floor, two rooms below and a left above. Two woram were near the fire. Ono full mx. ty, of bideoui face aud foature, with bent frame and long, elaw-like bands; the other much younger, but with a harden. ed countenance. Even as tbe agent bod recollected tbe man. so now be knew these women. They were Lamoreaux's slaves the elder, bis mother, a hag of tbe vilest uature; the othor bis wife or mistress. Morrison had camped in a viper's den. He must look sharp that he vu not bittec And yet no sign of recognition bad ap peared upon the face of Lamoreaux. If the man did not suspect him as a govern ment officer or an old enemy for Mor rison had been connected with tbe de tective police when in tho East he might safely remain. He represented himself as a mere voyager, half prospector, half hunter a eqrt of mountain waif. A coarse sepptr or venston, tea and hard bread was spread, and seated with tbe desperado and his pretended wife, Morrison ate. Then, removing bis pis tol belt, ha hnng it upon the wall, and filled his pipe for an evening's smoke. Lamoreaux, at the close of the meal also arose and left tbe shanty, remarking that be would see to the borse. As the paymaster knelt upon the broad Live and Let Live." PA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER '22, 1881. rough bearth-stoue to draw a coal from tbe firo, with whiob to light his pipe, tho old woman, who shivered in the corner, shot one sharp glunco nt him, and then, ubbing her bands together until the oiuts cracked, and until the nails rasped upon her tough and leathery skin, she muttered some hardly distinguishable words: Under tho stono nndtr tbe slonol Ilrtl ha I aud I did ill: I did itt His throat was soft and smooth, and I did it. Under tbe stouol Hal hal For nn instant tho mountaineer's band trembled, and panssd. Was bo kneeling above a gravt? Then tho sensa of his anger caruo tobim. Btlf-possetsion re turned, for by coolness aline could be savo himself, and be applied tbe coal to tho waiting pipe. Bat the muttered words of tbo hag bad warned him. "Be tin in lhar weeping loaded?" asked tho youcger woman as ho resumed his seat, pointing to his rovolvers. "I'm despnt skeored o' powder." "Wbatl A hunter's wife afraid o' pow der. That's n good 'un, and Morrison laughed heartily, even while bis heart quaked ntthe s'lggoslivo question. "Well 11 put them on again, an' then you won't bo in no danger." Uo nroso to execute thi3 suggestion. But at lhat instant Lamoroaux entered, and ns if cognisant of what had happen ed, bo raised his hand, took the pistol belt from the well, and pine, d it careful ly iu a detp chest that strved as a sent near Iho fire, closed tbe tamo and locked it, remarking as bo did so: "Thar, Lizittel Yo needn't be Rkeered Them pUtola Is safe" Tbon, turn- iug to bis astonished guest, be continued : "No need of wecpius in these diggin's, an' they'll be ready for ye in tbo morniu'." There waa nothing for it but to acqui esce and so, unarmed, this old enemy of Lamoreaux's sat iu his den, and with the certainty in bis heart that the despeardo bad discovered him nnd meditatod bis death, be coolly speculated upon his chances of escape. Small, indeed, be found them, trapped ns bo was, and the words of the old mother again reourred to him with more of fatal meaning than before "Under the stonel Under the stone." The evening wore on. Morrison at tempted some conversation with his host, but tho mm was taciturn and morose, and answered bim shortly. Tho younger woman busied herself about the room, and the elder one crooned and mutterod in her ohimuey corner, her ugly, wrinkl ed face lit by the fitful glooms of the dy ing fire, until, to the brooding Imagina tton of the watchful traveler, she seemed a very wltoh 'gloating above Ibe. grave of her victims. Bad thoughts those for one whoso wits alone must Bave bim from tbe murderer's knife ere morning, and at length, as the tallow dip shortened and iu "winding sheet grew longaud white, Morrisou arose from his stool, knocked tho ashes from bis pipe, and asked that be might be thown whero to lie, as he Was worn and weary. Ha felt sure of ono thing no attack would be made upon him until he slept, unless'he should show a fear of attack, and he therefore desired, by an apparent trustfulness, to obtain all possible time, in order to plan a defense or escape. At his requebt, Lizetto arose, "Ye kin go into the loft," nnd abe pointed toward tbe rough ladder. Thar'a r blanket thar, and I reckon ye'il be com lorUble. Ef ye hear any noise below, don't be disturbed, for the old woman sleeps by the fire, nnd she talks and walks around sometimes. Sbo't broke, kiudon Morrison laughed lightly. "I'm too hearty a sleeper to notice that under a roof. In the timber, one's ear is open all night, bnt when I bunk in a cabin I sleep." Uo took the candle offered him, and climbed to tbe loft above. Then, finding the blnukets, he threw himself down, ex. tinguished his light, and waited. One weapon hU enemies bad left bim his trusty kuife in his boot-top nnd with this closely grasped in his band, be turnod bis face to tbe roughly-hewn floor of logs and listened. For a little no sound broke the silence below. Without, bo could hear tho oc. caeioual stamp of his horse, tethered near the but, and tbe soughing of the night wind in tbo piuos. There was no window in the attic, nnd the roof was of heavy logs. Flight was out of the question. If attacked be mutt fight for his life. He set his teeth grimly. This was not tbe first time be bad faced death, but tbe odds were fearfully against him. An hour passed, when suddeUy there was a stir below. With bated breath he listened. Lamoreaux bad evidently arisen, for bis heavy feet could be heard upon tbe floor beneath, lie stopped nuir the fire1 place. "Git up." The words were balf.whispcred, but they came clearly to Morrison's ears And It was tbe big-whj answered, cack ling, meantime; "Under tbo Btor.eJ uudtr tba stone? I did ill" "Cursoye, and the stone, tooP hissed tbe man. "Ye must do it ag'in. Git up above nn' ye knew what." There was silence for a moment. "Come, be quick, ye old devil." "Under the stonel nnder the stonef crooned the witch. "What, more?" the suddenly continued, in an iutepse tone, An' has he money, mouoy gold? An' will ye give me some if I tear his throat out? More than before?" Her voice was louder now, and wild. "Aye , I'll give ye more! Git up quick. ly, too, and see be does ' not cry out. See," continued Lamoreaux, as the woman arose, "he must not wake. Ye must 6hut yer hands so tight! tight! an' never open them!" "I know, I know," croaked the mur deress, hoarsely. "Help rat up." And, from tho sound, Morrison knew that together they were upproaoktog. tbe foot of tbe ladder 1.00 a If .His blood ran ohill. Must bo kill this old woman? Was ebo the strntigler who carried out tbo crimes her demon sou planned? It would seem so. Tho Udder was creaking beneath her ascending tread, A moment later, and the waiting man in the loft could discern . crouching figure on thfl floor, creeping ont-like toward Lim. Uo oven noted the glisten of her fiondisb oven, tho light Bcratob"of her oUiv-liko nails against the logs, Motionless he lay, bin kuife tbiust back into' his boot-top, both bauds nndy for the attack. Tho womau was olono. Hernoble son waited btlow until the danger was j.ast. Nearer nnd nearer she drew, new halt ing to listen and again advancing, but so directing hcroourte as to cano upon her intended victim from the direction in which bis bead lay. Ho doing, sbo could seize bis throat with her wholo strength, aud bo, thus terribly nwukened, would vainly beat the air without danger to tho tranglcr. It was a simple plan, yet dia bolically cuuning. Alretdy tho hag was In plaoe already ber skinny arms were outstretched, her inewy hands open to rrasp tbo warm throat of ber victim, bir poisonous breath upon his brow when, nilli a sud den sweep of bis arms of steel, Morrison caught his assailant as if in a vice, lifted her bodily from tbe floor, nnd buried ber face downward in tbo blankets upon which bo lay, wilding her body from head to feet in tho heavy cloth, until she was securely gnggod nnd bound; then he again drew his knife and crept blowly to- tbo edge of tbe hole. Lamorcinx was standing below. The sound of tbo struggle bad reached bim; nnd now, with outstnrting eyes and trem bling limbs, he nwaited the signal to seize bis prey. But it.came not. The man was troubled. Ho wistled softly, then called; "Grannyl How h it!" No reply, and only the far-away cry of au owl broko the deathly stillnes of the night. Lamoreaux's broath came bard nd hissing through the teeth. "Curses upon her wrinkled bide! what bas happened?" he muttered, and called n second time. Still no reply; even tho ory of tho owl was viloD ced now. Night and mystery reigned. 'Tho devil d witoh is robbing the corpso herself," exclaimed tbe desperado in a low, intense tone. "I must sso to it." And the man began slowly and with the utmost silence to nccend tho ladder. Above crouched-Morrison, every uervO tense as bteel, bis eyes gleaming with that light which shines from those of a panther, ere tie. springs, his breath in drawn waiting. Step by step Lamoreaux drew near, un til first bis head, then his neck, and last his shoulders were above tbe level of (he floor; then, with a fierco yell an Indian war cry Morrison's aim tbot forward liko tbe bolt from a bow. There was a single glenm of it flashing bUds, a half uttered cry of horror cut cleanly in two, a sudden sinking of the man's body, and with a heavy plunge the desperado went backward to the floor below, dead. Morrison was saved! And then terror seized bim, nud tho strain ocoe gone be trembled like an as pen leaf. Quickly descending, with a shudder he passed the motionless figure at tbe ladder's foot, stayed not to securo bis pistols even, mounted, and spurring hard the astounded steed through nil tho tarry night that remained.ho rode south. ward until, just as tbo sun tipped tho eastern sky with red, tho stars and stripes above Camp Brown gladdened his weary eyes, nud a little later, exhausted and wan, he told bis tale to the wondering of ficers nt tbrpest. Ero night a mounted guard had inves tigated tbe cabin upon Bitter Water creek, found and burled Lamoreuux and his mother, ubo bad died the death she would have meted to others, strangltd by tho blankets iu which sbo was boULd, and returned to Morri-on his stolen pis. tola; but tho younger womon was never soon sRiin. The hut was burned, the tbe lonely grave hidden beneath its ath cs, and uo trail to-day remains of the tleu or its inhabitants; but the memory of that terrible night will saddeu the life ot Ben Morrison cveu though be livo be yond the nl'otted period of tbree-soore years aud ten, A BEMARECAItLi: LIKE. Several of our citizens returued last week from the Great Sunken Lake, situ ated iu the Cascade Mountains, about seventy-five miles northeast from Jack sonville. This lake rivals the famous valley of SInbad tbe Sailor. It is thought to kvorage 2,000 feet down to water all around. Tbe depth of the water is nn. known, nud its surface is smooth aud un. rnficd, as it is so far below tbe surface of tli6 mountains that air currents do not affeot it. Its length is estimated at twelve or fifteen miles, And its width ten or twelve. There is a mountain in tbe centro having trees upon it. It lies still silent nud mysterious in the bosom of tbe everlasting hills, like a huge well scooped nut by the hands of the giant ge nii of tbe mountains in tbe unknown ayes gouo by, and around it tbe prime val forests watch nud ward are keeping. The visiting party fired a riflo into the water several times nt an angle of forty- fivo degrees and were nble to note sereral seconds of time from the report of the gun until tbb ball struck the water. Huch ncetns incredible, but is vouched for by oar most reliable citizens. Tbe lake is certainly a most remarkable curi osity. "Jacksonville (Oregon) lleooid."

It may also bo said, rites the Now York corrcBpondont of the Buffalo Cour ier, that Now York' swarxu3 with men who, once well up the sicial ladder, if not actually at tho top, tumbled clear in to tbe mud at the bottom, nnd still lying there, with no prospect of ever again get ting up.

Iu some casea tbo fall is tbe result of mis. fortuue, but in most it is caused by fault A special case came to my nltcnthn a fow days ago. A shabbily dressed man, with the general looks of a tracip.pasaed mo in the streot. In glancing at bis face, I thought it was familiar. As be slouch ed along the Bidewalk, I noticed that he looked into tbe gutters and bent his head oyer ash barrels nnd boxe a tramp be yond doubt. A full look nt bim took me back twenty-five years. Long before tho war tbe famo figure was a familiar one on Broadway. U waa ono of tho dandies then, and his nat ty dress and curliogbair that hung thiok to the shoulders made bim an object of attention on the promenade. Ho follow, ed no business, but his family theatri cal and operatic people wero pretty welt of aud be had all tho spending money ho wanted. And now wtU, now bo iu a tramp, picking crusts out of the ash bar reU, sleeping in the station-housos, or possibly in the parks, and as miserable a creature, this one-time dandy of Broad way, as it is possibly for u man to be. And tbcro ara scores, if not hundreds, of just such examples in tbe streets every day. Other places, bavo a fair share of tbe same class, no doubt, but New York has tho largest variety nud can show specimens of every degree, from the sctpegrace son of tbo merchant prince all the way down.
