OIROVrall OF CALAVA4tAIk
-- • ,
BY F. 11RET
A subdued tone of cotiVe*tion*and the
absence of cigar -smoke, add' Wet-4as%, atAhe
windows of the Wingdam'stage-coach, made it
evident that one of the inside passengers was
a woman. A disposition on the part of loun
geS: atthe - stations, to congregate before the
window ; and some . concern in regard to
~the'
aPPWAITO 000.;f )lakt,abC.oQiiars fu;rtber
Indicated that she was lovely. All o ' f which
Mi. Jack Hamlin, on the box-seat, noted with
the smile of cynical philosophy.. Not that be
depreciated the' sex, but that. he recognized
therein: a deceitful element, the pursuit of
which, sometimes drew mankind away from
the equally tMeertain blandishinenta of poker
—of which it may be remarked that Mr. Ham
lin was a prefessional exponent.
So that, when he placed his • narrow boot on ,
the wheel and leaped down, he did not even
glance at the .windoir from which a green
,veil
was fluttering,. but lounged up and, down with
that listless and grave indifference of his class,
which was, perhaps, the next. thing to good
breeding. His closely-buttoned figure. and
self-constrained. air, were in marked contras' t to
the other passengers, . and . their feverish rest 7
lessnees, and boisterous emotion and even
Bill Masters,.a graduate of Harvard, with his
slovenly dress, his overflowing vitality, his in
tense appreciation of lawlessness and barba
rism, and his mouth filled with crackers and
cheese, I fear, cut but, an unromantic figure
beside this lonely calculator of chances, with
his pale Greek face, and Homeric gravity.
The driver called "all aboard," and Mr.
Hamlin returned to the coach. His foot was
upon the • wheel,. and his face raised to
the level of the open window, when 9 at the
same•moment, what appeared to him to be the
finest eyes in the world suddenly met his. He
quietly dropped down again, addressed a few
words to one of the inside passengers, ef
fected an exchange of seats, and as quietly took
his place inside. Mr. Hamlin never allowed
his philosophy. to interfere .with decisive and
prompt action.
4. fear that this irruption of Jack cast some
restraint upon the other passengersparticu
larly those who were making themselves most
agreeable to the lady. One of' thoinleaned for
ward and apparently conveyed to her infertile
thin regarding. Mr. Hamlin's profession, in a
single epithet. Whether Mr.'Hamlin heard it
or ' Whether he , recognized •in the in-'
formant a distinguished jttrist, from whom,
but a Tew eveningi before, he" had
won several thousand dollars, I Can . not
sa His colorless face betrayed no sign; • his
black Cyps; quietly ouservauL, gianceu mantel
ently -past the legal gentleman, and rested on
the much more pleasing features of his neigh
' bor. An Indian. stoicism—said to be an In
heritance from his maternal ancestor;—stood
hirn in good service, until the rolling wheels
rattled upon the river-gravel at Scott's Ferry,
and the stage drew np at the International
hotel, for dinner. The legal gentleman and
aniember of Congress leaped out, and stood
ready to assist the descending - goddess, while
• Colonel Starbottle, of Siskiyou, took charge of
parasol and shawl. In this multiplicity of
attention ) there was a.rnomeutary confusion
and delay; Jack Hamlin quietly opened
the opposite door of the coach, took
the lady's hand—with that decision
and positiveness which a hesitating
and undecided sex know how
~ to ad
mireand in an instant had dexterously and
gracefully swung her to the ground, and again
lifted her to the , platform. An audible
chuekle on the box, I fear, came from that
other cynic, "Yuba Bill," the driver. "Look
keerfully aster that baggage, Kernel," said the
expressman, with affected concorn,as he looked
after Colonel Starbottle, gloomily bringing up
tiv rear of the triumphant procession to the
waiting-room. • •
Mr. Hamlin did not stay for dinner. His
horse was already saddled and awaiting him.
He dashed over the ford, up the gravelly hill,
and out into the dusty perspective of the Wing
-darn road, like one leaving an unpleasant fancy
behind hiin. The inmates of dusty cabins
by . thp . roadside shaded . their eyes with
Ikands, . and. looked 'after him, recog
nizing the man by his horse, and specu
lating what was up with Comanche
Jack." Yet • mach of this interest cen
tered in the horse, in a community where
the • time made by " French - Pete's" mare, in
his ranlrom the Sheriff of Calaveras, eclipsed
all concern in the ultimate fate of that worthy.
The sweating flanks of his gray at length re
called him to himself. He checked his speed,
and, turning into a by-road—sometimes used
as a cut-off—trotted leisurely along the reins
hanging listlessly front his fingers. As he
rode :on the character of the land
icape changed, and became more pas
toral. Openings in groves of pine and syca
more disclosed some rude attempts at eultiva
tion—a flowering vine trailed over the porch of
one cabin, and a woman rocked her cradled
babe under the roses of another. A little farther
on, Mr. Hamlin came upon some bare-legged
children, wading in the willowy creek, and so
wrought upon them with a badinage peculiar
- hfritself that -- - they- were- - emboldened
to - up his horse's legs and
over his saddle, Until he •WaS fain " to
• develop an exaggerated ferocity of demeanor,
and' to escape, leaving behind some kisses and
coin. And then, advancing deeper into the
,
woods where all sign of habitation failed, he'
began to.sine—uplifting a tenor so singularly
sweet-,.and aaded by a pathos so subduing
and tender, that I wot the robins and linnets
stopped to listen. Mr. Hamlin's voice was not
'.cultivated; the subject of his song was
some sentimental lunacy, borrowed
from the . negro minstrels, but there
was some occult quality of tone
and expression that thrilled through all to spirit
' tinexpresi3ibly touching. Indeed, it was a won
derful-sight-to. see this--sentimental-blackleg,
with a pack of cards in his pocket and a re
volver at bis back, sending his voice before
Jim: through the dim woods with a plaint about
hie " Welly's grave,"
.in a way that overflowed
the ,eyes.of the listener. .A sparrow-hawk, fresh
from bis sixth victim, possibly' recognizing in
Mr: Efamlin.a kindred spirit, stared at him in
surprise, and was fain to confess the superiority
. . Or.man. With a superior predatory capacity,
he 'couldn't sing.
2114 Mr. 44:yeilin presently found himself
aicalikon the high-road,and at his former pace.
Pltobeti atsul , batilte of gavel,denuded hill-sides,

plate of woodland and ravine,
and indicated
his' aPiproach 'to civilization. • Then a church
steeple tame in sight., and he knew that he had
reached' home: /a a few moments - he was
clattering ' down ' the single narrow
street, that lost itself in a chaotic
ruin of races, ditches, and tailings at the foot
a the hill, and dismounted before the gilded
viindovifi of the "Magnolia" saloon. Passing
.
trough the long bar-rootu, he pushed open a
peen-baize . door, entered a dark. passage,
opened another door with a pass-key, and found
himself in a dimly lighted room, 'whose furni
ture, though elegant and costly for the locality,

was-tbinking •of another style of beauty. But
justl,ben some one knocked at the:door. ,With
.out rising he pulbiota cordibat apparently 'shot
back'a bolt for tbe'doer"iwung , open, and a
nrim entered.
The new-Comer was broad-shouldered and
robust—a vigor not borne out in the face, which,
then& handsome, was singularly weak, and
disfigured by dissipation. He appeared to be
also under the influence of liquor, for he started
on seeing Mr. Hamlin,. and said, "I thought
Kate was here ;" stammered, and seemed con
fused and embarrassed. '
Mr. Hamlin smiled the smile which he had
before worn on the Wingdam coach, and
sat up, quite refreshed,and ready for busi
ness..
i ' "'Yen 'didn't come up - on the stage," con
:tinned the new-comer, "did you ?" • ;
iaPlied Hamlin ; "I left it at Scott's
Veiry. It isn't due for half an hour yet. But
how's luck, Brown ?"
" bad," said Brown, his face suddenly
kissliminean expression of weak despair: I'm
Cleaned out again. Jack," he continued, in a
whining tone, that for Med a pitiable contrast to •
his bulky figure, "can't you help me with a
hundred.till to-morrow's' clean-up?: You see
I've got to send money home to the old woman,
and—you've won twenty times that amount
from me." : • •
The conclusion was, perhaps, not entirely
logical, but Jack overlooked it; and handed the
sum to his visitor. '4 4 The'. old-Woman 'busi
ness is about played out, Brown," he added,by
way of commentary ; why don't you say you
want to buck agiu faro ? You know you ain't
married !" • • •
" ,said Brown, with a _sud
den gravity, -as'lf the mere - contact
of. the gold with, the . palm. of the
_hand had
imparted some dignity to. his. frame. " I've
got a wife—a d—d good one; too, if I 'do
say the States. It's three 'year since I've
seen her, and a year ail:lee 'l've • 'writ to her.
When things is about straight, and, we • get
down to the lead, I'm going to send'for her."
"And Kate?" queried Mr. Hamlia, with his
previous smile.
Mr. Brown, of Calaveras,' essayed an arch::
ness of glanee, to cover his confusion, which his
weak face.and whisky-muddled intellect but
poorly,carried out, and said :
• "D---it; Jack, a mail must have a little
liberty, you know. But come, what do you
say to a little game?.Give us a show to dou
be this hundred."
Jack Hamlin looked curiously at his fatuous
friend. 'Perhaps ho knew that 'the'citan - Was
Predestined to lose the money, nd preferred
that it should flow back into his own coffers
rather than in any other. .He nodded his
head, and drew his chair toward the' table. At
the same moment there came a rap upon the
door.
. "It's Rate," said Mr. Brown.
,Mr. Hamlin shot back the bolt, and the door
opened. But for the fast time in 'his life, he
staggered to his feet, utterly, unnerved and
abashed, and for the first time in his life, the
hot blood crimsoned his colorless cheeks to his
forehead." For before him stood . the;• lady he
had lifted from the Wingdam edoach, whoM
Brown—dropping his cards with a hysteriCal
laugh—greeted as
"My old woman, by thunder !"
They say that Mrs. Brown burst into tears,
and reproactes'of her husband. I saw ber, in
185'7, at Marysville, and disbelieve the story.
And the Wingclani Chronicle, ,of the next
Week, under the head of " Toucing Reunion,"
said :—" One of those beautiful and touching
incidents, peCuliar to California life,' oc
curred, last week, in ,our, city.. The wife
of one of Wingdam's eminent • pioneers,
tired of the effete civilization Of :.the East, and
its inhospitable climate, resolved to join her
noble husband, upon these golden shoreS.
Without informing him of her intention, she
undertook the long journey, Mut arrived last
week. The joy of the husband may be easier
imagined than described. The meeting is said
to have been indescribably affecting. We trust
her example may be followed:"
Whether owning,to Mrs. Brown's influence,
or to sane more successful speculations, Mr.
Brown's financial fortune, front that day,
steadily improved. lie bought out his partners
in the "Nip and Tuck" lead, with money said
tolave been won at poker,' a week or two
after his Wife's arrival, but which rmnor,adopt-
Mg Mrs. Brown's theory that Brown had for
sworn the gaining table, alleged to have been
furnished by • ° Mr. ,Jack Hamlin. He
built and furnished the "Wingdam
House," which • pretty Mrs. Brown's
great
,popularity kept overflowing with guests.
He was elected to the- Assembly, and gave
largess to churches. A street in Wiugdam was
named in his honor.
Yet, it was noted that in proportion as,he
waxed wealthy and fortunate, he grew pale,
thin and anxious. As his wife's poptilarity. in
creased, lie became fretful and impatient. The
most uxorious of husbands—he was absurdly,
jealous. If he did not interfere with his wife's
social liberty, it was because—it was Mali
ciously whispered—that his first and only at
tempt was Met - by an outburst from "Mrs.
Brown.that terrified him into silence. Much of
this kind - of gossip came frorrillkise Of her oWn
.sex whom she had supplanted in the chivalrous
attentions of Wingdam : which, like'most pop
ular chivalry, was "ife - voted to an admiration'
of- power, whether of inasculine fOrce or
feminine beauty. It should be remem
bered, too, in her extenuation, that, since
her arrival, she bad been the unconscious
priestess of a mythological worship, perhaps.
not more ennobling to her womanhood than
that which distinguished an ' older Greek
democracy. 1 think that Brown was dimly
conscious of this. But his only confidant was
Jack Hamlin, whose infelix reputation natu
rally precluded any open nitimacy with the
family, and whose visits were infrequent..
It was midsummer, 'and a moonlit night;
-and Mrs: - Brown,- very rosy,- large-eyed-and
pretty, sat upon the piazza, enjoying the fresh
incense of the mountain breeze, and; It is to
- be feared, another incense, which was not so
"fresh, nor quite as innocent. Besidtzi..bec sat.
Colonel Starbottle and Judge Boomoointer,
and a later addition to her court, - in the shape
of a foreign tourist: She was in good spirits.
"What do you see down the road?" in
quired the gallant. Colonel,, who had been.con7
scions, for the last few minutes, that Mrs.
Brawn's attention was diverted.
"Dust," said Mrs.: Brown, with a sigh.
" Only sister Anne's.k.flock of sheep.' "
The Colonel, whose literary recollections did
not extend farther back hist:week's paper,
took a more practical view. "It ain't sheep,"
he continued; "it's 'a horseman. Judge, ain't
that Jack Hamlin's gray ?"
But the Judge didn't know; and, as Mrs.
Brown suggested, the air was growing too cold
for further investigations, they retired to the
parlor.
Mr. Brown was hi the stable, where he
generally retired after dinner. Perhaps it was
to show his contempt for his wife's compan
ions; perhaps, like other weak natures he
found pleasure in the exercise of absolute
power over inferior animals. He had a certain
gratification in the training of a chestnut more,
whom he could beat or - earess as pleased him,
whleit he couldn't do with Mrs. Brown.
I 4 way_ here that he recognized a certain gray
horse hich had just C 01111). in, and, looking a

somewhat raftdined. — ;Brown's urgent
regoest, he followed him up the back-stairs, to
a narrow corridor; and thence to a small room
looking out uport, the stable-yard. It was
plainly furnished with, a bed, a table, a few
chairs, and a rack for guns and whips.
I..‘'llds-yer's in

with a!sigb, as he threw 'upon the' bed;

the head of the house—art it?" he said, with
a forced laugh. "But I'm • glad to
see ye, Jack, el— glad," and - he reached from
the bed, and again shook the unresponsive
hand of Jack Ilamlin.
"I brought ye up here, for ,I didn't , i want I to
talk in the stable ; though,., 'for' the 'matter' of
round that, it's all town. Don't strike a . light.
We can talk here in the, moonshine. ,Put up
Your feet on that winder, add asit here. beside

Mr. Hamlin did not , vail himself of the 'ha
-1 fortnation: 'Brewn, of 'CalaVertiS,' turned his
face to the Wall; and centinned;'' '
I "If 1 'didn't ye,' the Wonian, Jack, T

had found and wrung this coMpabion'S hand
again. He w,ouhl have' detained, it, but Jack
slipped it into the buttoned breast of his coat,
and asked, listlessly, "How long has this been
going on 1" .
" Ever since she came'' here; ever since
the day she walked into . the Magnolia.
1 Was a fool then'; Jack, "I'm a fool
now'; but I didn't know hoWintich I loved her
till then., And she hasn't been, the same
woman Bence. . .
" But that ain't all, Jack; and it's what I
wanted, to see you about, and 'l'm , glad you've
come. It ain't that she dOetn't lOve me any
more,;, it ain't that she fools' with every chap
that comes along, for, perhaps, I staked her love
and 'lost it, as. I did everything else at the
Magnolia; and, perhaps, foolin' is nateral to
some women, and thar ain't no great harm
done, 'cept to the fools. But, Jack, I think—
I think she loves somebody else,. Don't move,
Jack ;.don't move; if your pistol htirta ye, take
it, oil'. ' '
"It's been more'n six months now, that she's
seemed unhappy and lonesome, and kinder
nervous and scared like,, And, sometimes,
I've ketched her lookin,' at me sort of timid
and pitying. And she writes to somebody. And,
for the last Week, she's heen gathering her
own things—trinkets, and furbelows, and
jewlry—and, Jack, I think she's goin' off. I
could,stand all, . but that. To have her steal
away ike a thief—)" He put his face down
ward ,to the •pillow,(and, for a few moments,
there was no sound but the ticking of a clock
on the mantel., Mr. Hamlin lit •a• cigar, and
mov.eu to tot Open windoW. • The gluon no
longer shone liP the room, and the bed and its
occupant were in shadow. "What-shall I do,
Jack ?" said the voice from the darkness.
The answer came promptly and clearly
from the window-side: "Spot the man, and
kill him on sight."
• " But, Jack ?"
"He's took the risk!"
"But will that bring her back?"
Jack did not reply, but moved from the win
dow toward the door.
' i 4 Don't go yet, Jack; light the candle, and
sit by the table. it's a comfort to see ye, if
nothin' else."'
'Jack hesitated, and then coraplied. lie drew
a pack of cards from his pocket and shuffled
them, glancing.at the bed. But Brown's face
was turned to the wall. When Mr. Hamlin
had shuffled the cards, he cut them, and dealt
one card on the opposite side of the table and
toward the bed, and another on his side of the
table, for himself. The first was a deuce; his
own card, a king. He then shuffled and cut
again. This time " dummy " had a queen and
himself a four spot. Jack brightened up for
the third deal. It brought his adversary a deuce
and himself a king again. "Two out of three,"
said Jack, audibly.
" What's that, Jack ?" said Brown.
"Nothing."
Then Jack tried his hand with dice; but he
always threiv sixes, and his imaginary oppo
nent aces. The torte of habit is sometimes
confusing.
Meanwhile, some magnetic influence in Mr._
Hamlin's presence, or the anodyne of liquor, ;or
'both, brought surcease of sorrow, and Brown
slept. Mr. Hatalin moved his chair to the
window, 'and looked out on the town of Wing
dam, now sleeping
peacefully—its harsh out
lines softened andsubdued, its glaring - colors
mellowed and sobered in the moonlight that
flowed over an. In the hush he could hear
the gurgling of. water in the ditches,
and the
sighing of the pines beyond the hill. Then he
looked np at the firmament, .anti, at the did
so, a star shot 'across the twinkling field.
Presently another, and then .another.
The phenomenon suggested to Mr. Ham
lin a flesh augury. If, in another fifteen
minutes,: another star should fall—. He sat
there, watch in band, for twice that time, but
the phenomenon was not repeated.
The clock struck two, and Brown still slept.
Mr. Hamlin approached the table and took
from his pocket a letter, which he read by' the
,flickering candle-light. It contained only a
.single line, written in pencil, in a woman's
band:
64 Be at the corral, with the buggy, at three.'?
The sleeper moved uneasily, and then
awoke. •
4, Are you there, Jack 2"
" Yes."
"Don't go yet. L dreamed, just now, Jack
—dreamed of old times. I thought that Sue
and rue was being married again, and that
the parson, Jack, was—who do you think?—
you!
The gambler laughed, and seated himself on
the bed—the paper still in his hand.
" It's a good sign, ain't it?" queried
Brown.
"I reckon. Say, obi man, hadn't you better
get ?"
The " old man," thus aflectionately appealed
to, rose, with' the assistance of Hamlin ' s out
stretched hand. .
."Smoke ?"
Brown mechanically took the profera•ed ci
gar.
" Light?" ' •
' Jack had twisted the letter into a spiral, lit it,
and held it for his'compartion. He continued
to hold it until it was consumed, and drOpped‘
.the fragment—a' fiery star—from the open
window. He watched it as it fell, and then
returned to h 1 friend.
"Old nitan," be said, placing his hands ttpon.
Brown's shoulders, in ten minutes 1.11, be on ;
the road, and gone like that spark. We won't
see each other agiu ; but, before I go, take a
fool's advice: sell out all you've got; take your
wife with you, and quit the country.' It
ain't no place for you, nor her. Tell her she
;must go; make her go, if she won't. Don't
whine because you can't be a saint, and She
ain't an angel. Be a man, and treat her like'a
woman. Don't be ad— fool. Good, by."
He tore himself' from Brown's grasp, and
leaped down the stairs like a deer. the
stable-doer .he collared the half-sleeping.hostler,
and backed him against the wall. "Saddle my'
horse in two minutes, or I'll—" The ellipsis,
was frightfully suggestive.

JIB. LO AND A YANKEE PRISONER.
Romantic Adventure of a DOwn Laster.
[)row the Lewistown (Hs.) Journal.)
Franklin Maxwell, a man of about 35 years
of age, a native of Atinusta, with a wife living
with her father in New Sharon, waited upon
us on Monday, and presented papers and cer
tificates which ''appeared reliable, and gave the
following account of his life for the past four
— years. 'Ear!yin - the rebellion, Maxwell entered
We • regular army, arid served during the war
without receiving a wound. Being discharged
at the expiration of his term of service, he re
turned to Maine, and three years ago he left
his wife. and.home for the West, to, seek em
ployment. Reaching Detroit, he engaged as a
wagoner for We United States,and was ordered
to Oolorado, where, for nearly three years, he
was engaged in driving supply teams from Dry:-
town to various points where the Government
had forts or rendezvous for troops.
•On the sth . ofildarch last, as he and others
were conducting a supply train in the Pawn
Tane Valley; about three hundred miles south
ofile PaciticjtailroaAl, the train was surprised
by LittlaKettle's band of Indiane, several of
the whites -killed, and-he-and-five nothers -taken -
prisoners. lie himself received two wounds in
his leg,one in his side and a blow from a toma
hawk on , his bead: The prisonersmerataken
to Little 'Kettle's' tamp,' when 'all but himself
were at once. taken out, cut down with toma
hawks and scalped:` Two of the whites , thuS
killed and scalped were William Hanson, of
ReadflelC and George TO Wo1"3, Of.. Winthrop: .
The scalps were hung upon a pole and the
scalp dance performed,arpund them t
Maxwell him Self came very near meeting the
fate of ''his'aiseciatee.‘ 'TWo Indians the
same time seized binirby the shoulders, while a
third began to scalp -him. , The' circular
wounds made by the knife are plainly, visible.
At this point Maxwell had the presence of
mind to make knOWn by hit gesticulations and
a few Indian words which ire ; pad : picked up,
that he had whisky and tobacco for them—an
announcement Which acted like Magic on the
red men, and led them to desist. l le then led
them to' a private , box In the 'wagims," which`
they had overlooked, where 'was' a small quam

Indiatiaatethe disedvery of these artieles,.that:

wound in a raw buffalo bide; •
Maiwell . Waanade practically a slave to the
baud—did whatever he was commanded to do,
and went:with...them on their hunting parties.,
At,first be was :treated harshly, but as he
learned'inore of itheir language and adopted
more of their manners, his treatment' became
better. 'When he bad reached the point of
eating ia* antelope and buffalo, they were
delighted, and began-to think it was . time for
him to take a squaw for a wife. All this time
Maxwell, while appearing very much attached
to - bls'lndlan life; 'was all tiro r 'while - seeking'
an 'opportunity ta escape. Finally, on the 10th
