Caught Wo learn from the Express that the Delaware and Lackavnna Uailroad Cota prny, have for some time been losing large quantities of coal on the way to Newark aud New York City. When the train would arrive at its destination there would be large quantities missing. The company could not solve the mystery, so they pro cured the services of Detective Ilaggerty of Newark, who began to investigate the affair and he soon solved the mystery. It appeared that a gang residing at Clarks ville, near Hampton Junction, were in the habit of stealiug coal from the trains. Ilaggerty succeded in arrosting four of the gang, the latter oonfosscd that six titn others had a hand in it. A twelve year old child named Klla Soulc is traveling aud lecturing ou tern pcrauce in Ohio. She asserts with much gravity that she has been totally abstem ious all her life.

BY II. LANCFORD. CHAPTER XX. HOPES AND F K A It S. Austin's hands were pinioned behind his back. The iusurgent Sag floated before his eyes, and he fancied that, as he kuelt there in suspense, the eyes and thoughts of that immense army were con centrated upon him "You are to die there is no hope," still rang, half fem cnine, half girlish, from the lips of the young subaltern, who stood in sorrow near him. Those at a distance could r.rv i have heard the word? nn KtiM s, nnia less, was the tented ueld, aud the paraded thousands upoa.it; but the sounds were unintelligible to everv one exeer.t tli. j - r - person who spoke, and he to whom they were spoken. The young ofSccr again mounted his horse, and having spokeu a few words to the Provost Maihal, loosened the rein and dashed along the line till he arrived at the General's quarters, lie drew up thrust his sword into the turf, and se cured the animal to it theu entered, and ennf routed ihe commander. "Your attention, General, on behalf of the condemned prisoner. Austin Cameon. alleged to be a spy." ' Well ? " "Your clemency, General, he is a brave soldier aud an houorable foe. you will in consideration of these grant a res pite?" 44 No." 44 He is condemned circumstantially I have knowledge of his being altogether ! unfit to play a turn such as this is. lie is my 44 Yours ? " 44 Mine but an ambition is different, and by other motives directed. lie is honorable, nevertheless, his career du ring the war was a soldier not a spy." tr He is proven a spy." " ly circumstances, yet he is innocent. I have seen him on more lhau one field. it f tint xreUurr? " A 44 Yes: he commanded as a colonel ! there. An adventure on the close of the secoud day's fight led to his beic$ cap tured. It is a strange story, but you shall hear: At Gordonsville, after Jackson and Ewell's retreat, he encoun tered a man named Gascomber, whom it appeared exercised a great influence over him. Gascomber was a prisoner, who was captured on the death of Gcueral Winder at Cedar Mountain. A mysteri ous disclosure at once secured t !c 1 ric u J- t r s l in snip ot colonel vjamcon. lhev were both . . . kidnapped at GordousviUe in my ' everybody knows and hardly anbody at nv. Thev succeeded in makin" their i lcuJs to, that is, to sprinkle slacked lime company. They C5PG aoJ endeavored to rejoin their re- spective armies near Gettysburg. Gas comber on the second day fell mortally wounded his division pierced the cen ter of the Federal army Colonel Cain eon'came to his relief, and at nightfall, as he sought medical assistance, missed his way. There is a secret about the pris- oner's..birth, relationship, and estate, j which only Gascomber could clear. The prisoner sought it at his lips in his dying hour. It is unrevealed yet, and with the auxiety is added a dinhuuorable death. A pardon, General, I solicit for hiui he is too noble to play the spy." General Leo put down his pen and thought for a few moments. The young oQccr was pale with anxiety and doubt. Perhaps a pardon now might be too late. He had only succeeded in gaining a res pite for twenty minutes, and he now look ed at his timepiece with tears in hi3 eyes. Trumpets were sounding without the guns fired iu heavy rumbling reverbera tiou; yet the General was absorbed in reflection. Heat last raised his head. 44 His pardon cannot be grauted," he said, gloomily. The youug soldier oddrcsscd him with emphatic dignity: 44 General. I have bled and suffered for my country, because I loved her she has given me honor, fame, distinction, aa a reward for rny iutegrity. I drew my sword wheu the signal boomed from the rocky bastions of Sumpter, and have never since grown weary of the exercise. To-day I pctitiou mercy for my ; whom I declare iunoeeut, and am refus ed. Have I become degenerate, that she spurns the honor she guvc me, in doubt ing my assertions of the prisoner's inno cence? Farewell Honor, since no longer it is truthful (3 re well War, siuco it is dishonored -w- farewell General Lee, aud to the gory battle fields where we fought side by tide all is forgotten, and I may return my sword, since as a soldier my honor is doubted ! " General Lee was amazed, piqued, and angry with himself. Ho rtsa from the writing table and looked out. The young officer was riding slowly down the hill towards the place where Austin was still kneeling. General, Lee scratched his head, and retired again to his writing. A few loose sentences were scribbled iu a moment. Could it have been a respite, or were life and death contained in these few idle words? I wish we were all Kings or Generals. Austin was yet living. A respite of twenty minutes had been grauted by the Field Officer at the request of the young soldier, while he went iu hopes of pro curing pardou to the General. Five min utes yet remained, and no hope. His in tercessor spoke to him in low, confiden tial touc.; nad tho appcarauce of his face indicated luiscrv. Austin was tiles withal. There was a quiet resignation imprinted on his brow., though saduess was at his heart, and the serene and youthful impression gave denec of his true courauc. singular evi Thc time of respite had expired. No hotic. The 3'ouug soldier was ordered to re tire, and the guard underwent the usual round of exercise, before coding to the? 44 present." Austin closed his eyes h(? had taken his last look at the sun, as it peercl through the dun drapery of clouds that were sailing over the valley the blue sky in the distance, and the? serried raDk and file drawn up in all the array of battle before hitu. lie felt two arms encireie his ucck. and a well-known ; ?oaBU ru- 111 car3 urcwning ice tow ' num a thousand voices, lie etooJ up itutl his ban Js were loosed in a momeut then, as if all his heart bursted in aa overflow of gratitude, he fell upoa Cos tardo's bosom, and moaned. The cous ins were transported the one with joy, the other with gratitude; and the stern Genera! l.r a reprieve cluiic tiitie was affected. The in time when hope of life was gone, and death was over. What is it that the real anguish 0r maLe3 life so dear to I U3- erta ! mortal n tl;:it we mut 4l 4i throw off cull," why cliu" to life with all the delerium of insanity? Nor fear, nor dread of judgment is it, that forces our spirit backward from the gloomy sen sibility of puin or condemnation. . There; is more in our clay th in foar or dread there is a darker scusibiiity than pain or condemnation 44 To die, to sleep, do ! mere. .Aye tuat s the rub. It is this which 44 makes calamity of so long life." We dread " coming to nought" leav ing the world behind; we being marked? out suddenly, with our affairs unsettled our debts unpaid., and our glad race of-' ambition cut short, when the goal i3 al most reached. We must admit that wo; love life for these, and these alone tie us to our thraldom, til! wc sre diagged away free. Austin was saved. The affectionate Costardo almost lost a dear friend. He knew uot of Austin's trial or sentence till he beheld him paraded in irons, and led away to the spot where he knelt to die. Austiu's destiuv was not cast with that of the ether prisoners. Three days later he was given ibto the custody of a heavy escort, and ordered to be conducted to the strong military post of Macon, in Georgia. To be continued in our next. A thrifty farmer, who 4 believes in making old things last in these times," says : "There is one thing that nearly j 00 t,iCir roo,s once a year, either m fair or srric":. 11 the. suin-ilcs are covered ever so thick with mos.$, (he h'ruc soon j clears it off, leuviug roof clear and white, and good for a duzea yeajs longer. It ought to be put on pretty thick, and a rainy day is best for the work. Strong woo l ashes will answer almost as well to' keep old roofs in repair, but they will not look as nice. To make new shingles last three or four times the usual period, they need 'only to be soaked a few days in a tank half full of thick lime water, which must be stirred up well before the shin gles arc put in."

We learn from William Mutchler, the Assessor of Internal 11 even ue for this Di.strict, that he has received positive or ders to commence at once the assessment ofthe annual taxes, which include in comes and license. ly the amendatory act of March 2, 1S07, aJJ returns, of in comes and special taxes are required to be made by the first day of March, under a penalty oi' fifty per cent, additional ! The Assistaut Assessors are instructed to enforce the provisi ons of the law iu every ease of delinquency, and it will be well for all interested to give attcntiou to mak ing their returns within the time pre scribed by law.
