In the autumn of 1816, while the
woods were bright in the variegated
hues which follow the light touches
of frost, a mounted traveler was qui
etly pnrsaing his way - through a dark,
broad, lonely forest in the western
part of the State of New York.
He had ridden three miles since
seeing a single habitation, and had
yet two miles to go before he colikl
get sight of another. -Ile was des
cending a hill.into a gloomy valley, -
through which flowed a shallow but,
swift-runnincr p ,stream, and on reach-;
ing the water he permitted hisikirsty
beast to drink.
At that moment a man steppedont
from a cluster of bushes into a road,
or horse-path, on the other side of
the stream. This man was dressed
like a hunter, and carried his rifle
'on his shoulder. In his general' ap
pearance there was nothing to indi
cate hostility or wicked .design. Ho
was of medium size, compactly built,
with intelligent features, and a car
tain'air of gentility—seeming as one ,
abroad from some settlement for a
day's sport, than a professional hun
ter.
• • All this the mounted traveler car's
full3 noticed - before, he crossed the
stream to continue his journey, and
when they came together pleasant
salutations were exchanged.
"Fine weather for traveling, sir,"
remarled the man with the gun.
"Anti for hunting also, I suppose,"
smiled the man on the horse.
"'yes, there is game enough," . re
turned the other, " but I am not a
good hunter, and can only show . one
bear for my day's work so far, , and
that is almost useless to me, .for I
have no means of taking it away,
would willingly give a dollar for.
,the
use of a horse like yours for a couple .
of hours. If you can sPare:fivelain. !
utes or so, I would like yon- to see
the bear ; it is just': beyond ' these
bushes, some,twa or three bmidred
yards from here."
" I will not only look at it," said
the traveler, dismounting and fasten
ing the horse, "but if not. too heavy
I will take it along for you, as, I.,am
going; the mune way."
0 .
The linnter'lhanked Lim in a most
cordial manner, and then, as if : to
make himself Ogieeiible, and keep,up:
conversation, inquired w.here.theetli- :
'er was fi.om, and learnedin reply that
the latter resided -in Albany, waiva
merchant in good business, and, was
traveling partly . - for . his. 'health, : -and
partly with a view of makitqr, an : ea- -
tensive Piirehilie of hind: ' : •• ,
"Well, here we are," exclaimedthe
hunter, and the two-emerged from; a
dense: thicket, through 'which they .
ha 4 slowly forced their, into an
Open road ; "here we are, and ;I'll
sh4r; you as fat - a Wait as you/ever
saw. Observe where I point niiiitle."
- He stepped back eight or ten feet,
deliberately raised his gitti ( to his eye,
and pointed the muzzle at .the head'

" Then I !Typos° he is waiting."
'• Yes; sir."
" "Well, slim's', hiin in."
Soon there was a tap at the door,
and the banker said 4 ( come in," in an
ordinary' tone. '
The servant opened the door, ush
ered in the stranger, and Iminediate
ly withdr7: . The ,stranger was a
man .verg,ing on sixty, of rough ap
pearanec and attire. He wore an old
gray overcoat, buttone4 to the throat,
and a pair of green goggles, and his
ihole" dress was satertted . .with rain.
e "Take ri seat," "'said the banker
pointing to u chair. - '
"No,-"thank yon, I'll stand," was
the gruff reply. " YoU' got my let

" You allude 'to this, I suPpuse."
replied the banker, prodding the
letter which bad caused him so much
perturbation. .
" Yes." ' •
" I do not understand it ; yov must
have made a mistake." .
"No, no mistake at all. I was

go to playing innocent, and refuse

The banker turned pale in - spite of
himself, shuddered and struggled- to
seat. • -
" I can't give it--4t uvular:tin me."
" Just as you say," rejoined the
vther, moving toward the door, "you
know what will follow -if go. this
_
He argued, urged and implored far
mercy at less fearful cost. In vain.
At last theebanker--seeing ruin, dis
grace, death before him if he refused
—agreed to• terms: He agreed to
meet the stranger, with the kixequirvid
sum, on the following eight, in front
of St. Paul's church. Both were punc
tufa to the fixed time, nnd= bills and
checks to the amount of one hundred
thousand dollars changed hands.
A month later there was a tremen

was set to work by eager, creditors,
and all the real and pfxsonal proper

and Bold, leaving him a beggar, and
just claims unsatisfied.. Fashionable
friends deserted the. and the
proud nobleman refused the hand of
the accomplished daughter. - .;
In the midst of his ' disgrace and

A hunter - in the wilds of Texas hid
lilted a black panther, and;

its akin, hurried. 'forward on a ' trail
.which, be espeeted,would hied to the=
object of his hunt, wild cattle; ,
He came back before night with
the trophy of a tralLhide, andpamed
the lagoon where he= had encounter
ed and killed 'his diiiigeronsassailant
in the morning. Savage cries and
hounds 'of , brutal' struggle informed
him, before he came to the place;
that some deadly battle was going on
'among theJleasts of the forest '

,carae frill view of -the
scene, "and "is sibiguirdry one• it was.
Four black panthers were ferociously
disputing the-possession , of, the car
cass of the dead panther, with two
enormous alligators. The -panthers
were superior in .numbers, but the
alligators.had much the • thicker ar
mor, and could:fight. with their tails
as well as their heads, so that the
battle was pretty near equaL One
of the big reptiles had a panther. on
his back, plying his flank furiorisly
with his hind claws, and another was
holding him by the fore leg with jaws '
like a tiger.' Whet he' succeeded in
'shaking off his' savage assailants his
['foreleg was broken; and_ a slit was
Made in his side nearly through, the
flesh into his entrals: ,
Meanwhile the other alligator was
making frantic efforts td'get the third
panther into his mouth: He had
nearly succeeded; when with a tre
mendous swing thri huge: tail of his
fellow saurian knocked out the pan
' then ,and wedged itself between his
jawi.r . The 'teeth -snapped logether
like a pair of copper mill - shears,- and
one of the tail-thrashing combatants
was minus his weapon.
The fourth panther, that had been
vichnnily busy' With teeth and .claws
let the eyes and throat of. the Curtail
ed reptile, now redoubled hisnttacks,
and with the aid' 'of: two ethers, in
front and rear, soon 'disabled him.
The third panther; owing to his 'en
trance and exit through
. hie' enemy's
jaws, was //bride combat' with broken
back. -
The fight was now between a sin
gle alligator and the three remaining '
cat savages. 'One of the three, how
ever, was by this time badly damag
ed. Another,Npparently had a rib
Or two broken, but did not - Were to

OBILD'S DREAM OF .1
DYCIIM=23 1)N MS.
„, • -
There was once a -.child, and he
strolled about a gdod deal, and
thought of a number of things, He
had a sister who .was a - child - too,
and his constant companion. -These
two used to wonder all - day 'Ong.
They . wondered at the beauty of the
flower's; they wonderednt the.height
and blueness of the sky; -they- won
dered at.the depth of the bright war
t i er; they wondered at the goodness
and the power of God who made the
lovely world. •
They used to say to - one another,
sometimes, Supposing- all the chil
dren upon earth we rr to die, would
the flowers and the water and the
sky be sorry? They believed they
would be sorry. For, said they, 026
buds are the children of the flowera:
.
and the little playful streams that
ganibol down the hillsides are the
children of git 3 water; and the small
est bright specks playing at hido;and
seek in the sky rill night must surely
be the children of the stars; and they
.would ,all be griei - ed to ,see their
playmates, the chihlren,,of men,. no
more. _ '
.
There was one clear, shining star,
used to wine out in the Sky before
the rest, near the church spire,,above
the graves. It was larger and more
,beautiful, they thought, than all the;
others; and' very night, they. watch , .
ed for it, standing hamtin-hand at a
window. Whoever saw it first cried
out, "I. see the. star!" And often
they cried out both together, know
ing so well when it would. rise, and
where. So they grew to be such
friends with it, that, before lying
down in their beds,, they always look
ed-out once again? to bid it good
night; and when they were turning
round to - : sleep, they, used to, ,ay,
" God bless the star r . • -
But while she was still very young
the 'sister dreeped„. and Caine to be
so weak that 'she i could no longer
stand in the window at night; and
then the, child looked sadly out by
liinself, and when he Sail , the star;
turned round and said to. the patient
pale face on the bed, "T see the star l'[
and then a smile • would come npoii:
the face,• and a little weak voice used
to say, " God bless my brother and
the star!"
And so the time. came, all too
l w
soon !- when the child looked out
alone, and when there was no face
on the bed; and hen there was. a
little grave among the- graies, not
there before; : and When the star made
long 'rais down towards him, as he
saw it through hii tears. -
Now these rays were so bright,
and they seemed to . make such a
shining way from; earth to heaven,
that when'the child Went to his soli
tary bed, he dreamed.about theater;
and, dreamed that,, lying _ where he
was, he saw a train . of• people taken'
up that road by angels. ; And the
star, opening, showed him a great
world of - light, where many . more
such angels waited to receive them. 1
All these angels, -who were waiting
turned'their beaming eyes upon the
'people who were carried up into the 1
-star; and some came out
,from , the.
long, rows, iii Which they stood and
fell upon the people's necks and kiss
ed,
them - tenderly, - and went away i
With them down avenues of- light,
and were so happy in their company
that; lying in his' bed; he wept-' for
jo
' t -
But there were Many angels who
did not go with ' them, and among
their one ho knew. The.patient face,
that once had laid upon the bed was
glorified and radiant, but his heart,
'found out iiiif Sister among all 'the
host: ' -
His-sister's angel lingered near the
'entrance of the star,,and said,to the
•
leader, among those 'Who had brought
the people thither,— - - •
"Is my brether cern° ?" . .1
`'And he said, "No:" • . ' .
She wail turning hopelessly • away,
when the - ..child stretched but Ins
arias, and cried, "Oh, sister, = I am
here 1 Take me 1" And then she
turned her beaming: eyes upon '
and it was night; and the : star 'gas
shining into the room,;wilting long
rays down towards him aii he saw it
thumb his tears. -
From that hour forth, " the, child
looked out upon'the star- as on- the
home he was to go to, when-his time
should_comev-and he thoughtAhat
he did not i beleng to the earth alone,;
but to the star too,- because -of . his
sisterangel's gone befOre. •
• There was a hala born to be a
brother to the "child'; and while 'he
was so little that he never yet had
spoken &word, he stretched Ms -tiny
form out on his bed, and died. . 1
'Again the. ehila . dre.amed of the
opened star, and of the company of
ringeli, and the train of 'people, and
the rows of angels 'With' their:beam
ing eyes all: turned upon those peo
ple's faces. .

Address of Geary to the
Freemen of Pennsylvania.
Ffsiow CrrIZENS In receiving the
various testimonials of confidence
which have been conferred neon me
by the people of my native ''btate, I
am deeply sensible.. of the circu,m-
Stances under which >they have been
bistowed, and of • the corresponding
'duties and responsibilities imposed
upon me during the fulfilment ofmay
term of the Chief Executive. office in
.your State government.- 'Notwith
standing a heart animated with pare
and upright intentions towards the
welfare of the Commonwealth, and ,
with all the faculties allotted to me
unceasingly' devoted to its Service, I
feeldeeply conscious that l i stand in
need of your indulgence, tvinle I thus
exercise one of .the prerogatives of
:the position of Governor—to address
the people when in his Opinion he
‘ is
justified by circumstances affecting
their welfare .and interests ; and to
expect from them an h6nest, candid
and liberal support in return.
With such 'circumstances now be
fore the people of Pennsylvania, I
feel that I would be recreant to imy
duty, ungrateful to a generous - peo
ple, and untrue, to myself, if I should
fail to express to you my opinions
upon a subject of public concern;
which demands your' immediate at
tention, mid prompt,-intelligent and
independent action:
The inviolability of tie Sinking
Fund, by which your palic debt is
to be reduced and finally exting,uiah.
ed, must be maintained against all
attacks upon' it,'whether open or se
cret-1 A: public debt is not a bless
, •
ing but an evil : r -an evil not to be
measured by the amount of the direct
pecnniary burden it imposes Eupon
the people, but by its whole. effect,
the entire 'amount of all its cense :
quences. These consequences have
been pointed out so fully bythe lath
ers of the republic, and by the most ,
reliable writers upon political econo
my, and a conviction' of them is so
deeply impressed on the minds of all
reflecting:men, that I need not men
pitulate theta, nor insist even upon
their existence.
-The State dett must be paid, paid
'honestly and to the utmost farthing,'
and,as solazins it can reasonably be
done. To this doctrine I ani
cably pledged in everypossible man
ner, and the credit of the State must
be kept up to its highest point in, or
der that, this important object may
be most readily accomplished. No
_belief or suspicion of bad faith or of 1
profligacy, on our part, should be
permitted to get abroad or to derive
the slightest support or countenance
from the conduct , of our government
in any of its . branches.A It should be
understood everywhere that we have
an Incorruptible and faithful judi
ciary ... t a 'Legislature and an' Breen
dispi:ised to work together , and
Ao co-opergto heartily in. maintaining
the honor of the Commonwealth.
snio operation of the sinking fund
was temporarily interrupted, or rath
er weakened by the recent war,' but
by the blessing of Heaven upon the
thcr patriotic efforts of the the
days of peace have returned. There
can now' be no - excuse for diverting
from that fund any of the moneys
pledged-to it by the Constitution and
the laws, norfor tampering in any
manner with its regulai administral .
--e.
But it is knovin to you that a bold
cunt daring attempt was made in the
Legislature, during its last session,
to invade the Treasury and seize the
proceeds of the sale of the public
'works of' the State, deposited there
`in the sinking fund, for the use of
I .ceitain affiliated corporations of this
Coinmonwealth, and that that

An Executive ve is in the nature .
i
th
n.,
of an appeal to people, to 'enable
them to pass upon controverted ques
tione involving ye considerations
of . public policy o safety: Upon a
question of this • di in which every
man, woman and •d• in the Com
monwealth is interested, r lhis great
prerogative of_ Executive, confer
red by the - Constitution, should he
fearlessly exercised. Is not this such
an occasion? Is not the subject to
be considered vitally _important? Is
it not urgentthat you should deter-•
mine it foi yourselves, in the selec
tion of men to represea you in the
Legislature of 1871?
Be this as it may, `this. question is
in fact submitted for your judgment.
The issue upon it was distinctly and
openly made at the last session be
' tween the Legislature and the Exe
cutive, and that issue is now before
you for your arbitrtunent, and you
should instruct your RepresentatiT9s,
in each and every. county, in accor
dance 'with your wishes and detertui
nation upon this important subject.
Should you; byyour indifference
to the question, or by 4 careless and
uncalculating choice of the persons
to represent you in the Legislature,
encourage and strengthen the com
bination of men Nilo ales re and
threaten, to invade your. Treasury,
rest assured that the vast fund now
sacredly devoted to the payment of
the public debt will be seized and
carried off.`
The nine and a-half millions ot
dollara of securities in that fond, with
all the interest to accrue thereon, lyill
be voted away from the peoplOs trea
sury ; the State credit will be pros
trated ; your taxes will be increased,
and yonr•Executive will be impotent
to help you. If, -on the contrary,
alive to your interests and honor, you
sustain the appeal sent to you from
the , Executive Chamber, and in se
lecting y* 'candidates for Itepre
sentatives,.you shall determine to re
affirm, witkemphasis, the command -!
of tile Constitution, that no part of
the said Sinking Fund shall be used
or applied otherwise than in the ex
tinguishment of the public debt,"-you
will strike a. just, severe and' timely
blow at corrupt legislation, and pro
tect yourselves against grievous pe
cuniary loss.. •
The lesion • will not bii lost. Its.
salutary effect will be great and last- .
ing. -Both for the present and the
future it will improve the toneof pub-
lie morals ; repress the unblushing
effrontery and corruption of the lob
by ; curtail the influence of arrogant
corporations; and secure the sincere
commendation of all good and pa
triotic men;
The assault upon they Treasury -in
the passage of the nine an'd a-half
million, bill, though the most con
spicuous example of the evil intiu
epees of corporations upon the teg-
Oature, is not the only. one. It pos-,
seems pre-eminent importance, but it
,does not stand alone. Then, fellow
'citizens, has net the time come for
determining the question, of title to
sovereign power in this Common
wealth'? 'ls that power a rightful
and indefeasible estate of the'people,
or does it reside in incorporated com
panies created by our laws? Will
you, with your eyes open, conscious
ly surrender the control over your
own representatives, and :give "your
consent that corporations shall decide
your Iowa?. Shall your 'government
be pure, patriotic and just ; true to
yourselves and true to sound princi- ,
pleslof administratiOn; or shall it be
the instrument corporate anahitiou
and avarice, and an object of public'
jest, ridicule and reproach ?• Dr, in
other words, shall corporations sm
persedethe government and - becomc
the masters:of the people?
And now, my fellow .citizens, with
this warning, I leave this important
- subject-in your "hands ~ t rusting that
you will be inspired with the will and
the resolution to defend the integrity -
,of your government and to preserve
unsullied the Credit and the honor of
the Commonwealth.
