At . among the "sights'' pointed cut to the straoger is a huge tree, and aboot feer feet from the base the bars Las been cut ia the form cf a cross in di- rrensions about two ftet kv three feet "Whet is the meaning cf that ?'' asked I cf my "ruide" the clerk of the postcEce as I pointed to the cross po deeply engraved in the tree. "There's a f tory goes with that," said be, "and it's been the cause of mc LeiDg against capital punishment ever eince." "A story ?" "Yes," interrupted te, -nd one that even the youngest child :a oar town cas learned to relate. Let us sit here, and 111 tell it to too." Lisbtin? a fresh cigar, he began tbe foilcwing, and I give it in his own words as near as I can : "Let ns see It's now almost fortr years since the events which 1 am going to relate ccccrreJ. Two miles to the west, ever there, ia an old run out coal pit, cr I shscld say, a pit sank f;r ccal, bat wti;h never vielded much of the diieiy." One the men employed ia tLe first! working and sinking was named Jno. Harris, a collier from over the water. He was a sort cf a superintendent, or boss of a gans of the workers, and had luut himself a neat little heme about a mile from here, between this place and the pit. Ilia familr coc- sietcd of himself and daughter, lis wife having died in England, The Bghter was a beautiful girl just turning Ler eighteenth year, and was tte magnet that crew all iho young gallants for miles around. Among the cumber of swains who were ready to 'Sght, bleed or die' for her, were Henry Lewis and Charles Jenkins. Both figure prominently in my tale: so I will came cone of the others who bad entered the list for favor from Luct Harris. "It appears that Lewi, a quiet, orderly young fellow, had the inside track in the affections cf the divine Lurv, and accompanied her to all the merry-makings, feasts, etc., to the en- ry cf all the others, cut to cone more so than Jenkins, who flittered him self that, were Lewis only removed from his track, he would come in winner cf the hand of the fair one. Old man Karris real! - favored the alter, being, as he ol.ca remarked. a "youngster of tne right sort, and none of your milk an 1 water babies,' which eobgioin cf the talents of Jen kins w&3 cccasioned by the fict that old man Harris ia bis drinking bouts, found a right good companion in Jenkins, and cce who could 'down' as mncb 'ocsstaia dew as he, while, communicated tbe joyful news to the oa the other hand, Ls'.vis was aboat j prisoner, and told him he would be a the only teetotaler acong the visiters! free man to-morrow, and thanked at tbe Harris house. I a his carous-lGod the real murderer had beea &2s, the old man swore roundly that j found, asd that aa innocent man had Jenkins alone should possess the j not suffered. Tbe Judge and tnatria hand, if not the heart, of Lacy, and' trate, on their own responsibility re- ESTA It LUTriED, 18 y SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY. OCT. 15, 1879. forbade Lewis from coming to bia house. Clandestine meetings, of course, followed between Lacy and tbe latter, but not unknown to the vigilant Jenkins, who was watcbiog the lovers for all that was oat. . "Things reached a crisis wJrcq tbe old man, informed of these meetings, took to drinking harder, and swore by all the Gods to rid tbe earth of that dough-fAccd baby who was try. ing to steal bis child away fr bra him. Lucy, who had of late baeo treated shamefully by the old reprobate, used to come here to this spat to Lola tryst with her lover, and lo; weep alone in aaguish over her unhappy life, made now doubly wrotcbed by her continued opposition ta her fath er's wishes. i : . "Jenkins cams to tha boasa one ! beautiful day in May, and having brought a plentiful supply ofr whisky with him, the old man wasaooa un der tbe 'influence,' and Jenkins was i not far cfT, either. Lucy, seeing how affairs Blood, silently stole from the ; bouse, and wended her way to her favorite spot here. She was seen i to leave the house by Jeukias. and he immediately followed her. ascer taining first that Harris was in a drunken sleep, and oblivious, to alt around him. . -. "The knoll wonder near tbe trees was the only place around 4iiere for quite a distance free from trash, and through a little lane Lucy weald come here to pray, weep, or meet her lov er. J ust as ene reacbea nere oa tnit fatal day fatal to her, at feast she heard a crackling in the bash, and thinking it was Lewis who was keep ing hia tryst, her eyes . brightly - kin dled and a smile illumiaated her fac?. Cat when the burly form of Jenkins burst into the clearing, her smile changed, and a look tf loathing and contempt greeted him as he rude ly accosted her. " 'Tboueht it wag the oiber one, did you? Weil, I'm tired of this shilly shallying, and I'm going to end this thing. You have got to be mine at last, so you can make np your mind to that.' ' ' w : " 'What do you msan ?! a&kod tbj terriaed Lucy. ' " 'It mean3 that you ere in my power now no one is nc$r ns and I'm going to make you mine- by all means.' "He seized her as ho poke, and, notwithstanding he was a powerful man. her strength and th? liquor be had imbibed made the etnggle a des perate one. Seeing that he would probably be foiled in his evil desire, and now thoroughly mrddend by the whiskey he bad drack, and tbe girl's almost superhemi exertions, be whipped out a large pocket knife and threatened to kill her unless she quit struggling. The dght cf the knife lent extra strength ft the unfor tunate girl, and just ti she ws about to overpower the? brute, the knife was sbeithed iit her bosom. SteJf H at his. Xe.etl eiquand again did the murderer's knife seek her keart. After the paroxysm of rage, tbe sight cf the now inanimate body filled him with fear, and drop ping the knife, he ran from the spot. He quickly made his way to the house, where the oid man still lay in a stupor. Then did the first thought of concealment enter bis mind. He raised tbe old man from bis slumber, and easily convinced him that he was but just dropping off to sleep when he roused him, and bantered him to finish tbe bout The old man took it all in, and together they had a right merry time finishing tbe jug. Here was an alibi; for ha could make the old man swear that he had oot left him a moment that day. "A 6hort time after the mnrder had fled from his victim, Lewis, who had an appointment with Lucy at that hour, hastened to th8 redezvons. Imagine Iii terror wtien his eyes gazed upon thu one object oa earth dear to him, cold, lifeless and bloody. With an awful shriek he clasped her in his arm?, trying to warm her back to life bv hi own heartbeats. Then kneeling by her corpse, he ewore to avenge cer death, and then, almost crszed by the blow, he continued to call on her he loved. "iome miners passing teat way discovered Lira, and taking him into custody, delivered him to the author hies at G , who, notwithstand ing his protestations cf innocence, lodged him in jail cn a charge of the rcurctr cf Luct Harris. Publfc sentiment was about equally divided, and when the trial came on the court room was crowded. The defense was a denial of the murder, and the knife, which was proven to have been the prisoner's, he claimed to have lost several days before the murder. The prisoner could not be roused cut of the apathy which had seized him, and to ail the exertions of his friends he made answer that the sooner ail was over the sooner he would join her above. XothwittsUnding an able defence by his lawyers, he was fjund guilty of mnrder. and sentenc ed to ba hanged. "The trial and verdii nearly all that be was 1 convinced indeed the murderer, gilded his and the moet charitable fearful crime with 'emo tional insanity.' Horn-ever, guilty or not, the preparations for his hanging went cn, and the eventful day drew nigh. "Jenkins was the loudest voiced of all firm believers ia the guilt of Lew L, and it was observed that he of laie drank heavier, and the eon nev er rose cr set oa him except as a drunkard. The night before the day appointed fvr the hanging he was seized with delirium tremens ia the principal saloon of the town, and to the astonishment cf the bystanders, in his delirium be agaia went through the bloody tragedy. The Judge who bad passed the dread sentence was sent for, and, giving titn into the custody of several constable;, he had a magistrate take down the tar ings cf the raving maniac, and all were soon convinced that the real murderer cf Lacy Harris was now ! before them. "The Judge went to the cell cf the condemned, and with a glad heart be 7. eased Lewis, and the trial . and con viction - of Jenkins soon followed ; for when accused of the murder and shown tbe damning self accusations, he wilted and made a clean breast of it. The gallows erected for Lewis served to "shuflls off" the' real mur derer of Lucy Harris, for Jenkins was swung off in a short time after wards. ' "Lewis, as soon as released, came to this spot, tho scene of the tragedy,' and carved that cross oa the tree, and every day, during life, he 'canio here, to kneel and pray to be worthy of being united with her above. His reason was shaken by what be had gone through, and the Judge cared that he wanted for nothing. Tbe people here call that 'Lawis' Cross,' and Heaven knows he did carry a heavy cross. He kept it whito and clean while living, cot al lowing a fiber to grow ii any of the incisions. He died about fifteen years ago, and once in a wbilo ono of the town people cuts out the cross as it fills up, so as to perpetuate 'Lewis' Cross' as long as the trse stands." ' ' Nlborlon Exile. Mr. Lemke had been to Tobolsk ; after which ba had to make a long, dreary journey in a wretched car, un til a high mountain rose beforo him. Ia its torn and craggy Hank" the mountain showed a colossal opening similar to the mouth of a burnt-out crater. Fetid vapors that almost took away' bia breath, ascended from it. F.'esein hia handkerchief upon Lis lips, Mr. Lsmke entered the opening of tbe rock, where he found a large watcb-house, with a picket of Cossack-. Having shown his papers, be was conducted by a guide through a long, very. dark and narrow corridor, which, judging from it3 sloping de scent, led down into some unknown depth. In spite of his good fur, the visitor felt extremely cold. After a walk of some ten minutes through the dense obscurity, the ground becoming more and more soft, a vague shimmer of light bee?-tv a ob?ervab!e. "We are ia tbe mine," said the guide, pouting with a significant gesture to the high iron cross-bars which closed the cavern before them. The massive ' bars were covered with a thick ra.-t. A watchman ap peared, who uaiocked tho heavy iron gate. Entering a room of considers ble extent, but which was scarcely a man's height, and which was dimly lit by an oil-lamp, the visitor asked : "Where are we?" - "In the sleeping room cf the con. demced. Formerly it was a produc tive gallery of tbe mine; now it servi as a shelter." - , The visitor shuddered. This sub terranean sepulchre, lit by neither sun cor moon, was called a sleeping room. Alcove-l'k oeiU were hewn into tbe rock ; -here, ua a couch cf vl i .I r . 7 were to repose from the dav's wo ' , .... . Over each cell a cramp-iron was fix ed, wherewith to lock up the prisoners like ferocious dogs. No doar, no win dow anywhere. Conducted through anoti.er pas eage, where a few laaterna were placed, and wboso end waj also bar red by an iron gate, Mr. Lemke came to a large vaait partly lit. This was the mine. A deafening noise of pick axes and hamu?era. There he saw some hundreds of wretched figures, with shaggy beards, sickly faces, red dened eyelids ; clad in tatters, some of them barefooted, others in sandals, fettered with heavy foot chains. No song, no whistling. Now and then they Bhyly locked at the visitor and his companion. The vratrr dripped from the stones; the tatters cf the convicts were thoroughly wet. One of them, a tall man cf suffering mien, labored hard with gasping breath, but the strokes of Lis pickaxe were not heavy and firm enough to loosen the rock. "Wby are you here ?" Mr. Lemke asked. The convict liwked confused, with aa air aldlos; of consternation, and silently continued his work. "It is iorbiudea to tne prisoners," said the inspector, "to speak of the cause of their banishment." Entombed alive : forbidden ts wby! "But who is the convict?'' Lemke a?ked tbe guide, with a say Mr. low voice. "It is Nc. 114," the guide replied, laconically. "This I see," answered tbe visitor; ' but what are the man's antece dents ? To what fami'.v do"s he be long ?"' "He is a count," replied the guide; "a well-known conspirator. More, I regret to say, I cannot teii yoa about NO. 114." The visitor felt a3 if he were stifled at tea gravelike atmosphere as it his chest were pressed in by a demon iacal nightmare. He hastily asked his guide to re turn with him to tbe upoer wond. Meeting there the commander of the military establishment, he was ob- liginsrly asked bythat officer Well, what impression did our penal establishment make upon you?" Mr. Lemk? stiiflT bowed in silence, and the officer seemed to take this as a kind of satisfied assent and went on "Very in JuBtrioos people, tte men below : are they not? " But with what feelices answer ed Mr. Lemke, "most these unfortun ates look forward to a day of rest af ter tbe week's toil !" "Rest!" said the oScer ; convicts most always labor. There is bo rest for them. Tbey are condemned to perpetual, forced labor; and he who once enters the mine never leaves it!" "Bat this is barbarous !"' The cScer shrugged Lis shoulders, and said : "The exiled work daily for twelve hours; on Sundays too. They mast never pause. But, so; I am mistaken. Twice a year, thoagb, rest is permit ted to thex at Easter time and on tte birthday of bis Majesty the Em peror.1' . Virtue neTer grows old. Who ever heard a bed tick? ...

It wa? tho first remark bo had made to a new employe. It waa the Erst lesson for the lad to learn, and it involved the principle ot success or failure in bis business career. Point ing to a well dressed maa of CO years behind a counter, tho merchant said : "There ia a maa who always whip3 out hia scis3or3 and cuta the string of a package ia three or four places. He is a good salesman, but never will be anything more. I presume he lives from band to mouth, and very likely is always more or less ia debt. The trouble with hitn is that be was never taucht to save. I told thia boy just now to untie the string instead of cutting it, not so much for the value of tbe string aa to tcacb hits that ev erything must be saved and nothing wasted. If the idea oaa bo firmly im pressed upon the mind of a beginner in life that nothing was made to be wasted, yoa have laid tie foundation of success' - The moral of tbis littlo incident ia self-evident. A young man well brought up. with a fair education, seeks employment in a business house. Tbe habit of waste ia little things is noticeable, and becomes a drawback ca bis value and usefulness to his employer. The disregard of saving strings and paper developainto a eare lessaess that runs through all his habiu. He fips not rt on ia the world becaow he is wasteful. Small sums of money slip through his fin- gars almost ancoasoiously, because they ere small. He ww.es tin.e : by the minute, without a thought of the old adage: "Taie care of the mia utes aad tbe boars wiil take care of themselvea." Sitting ia the counting-room of one of Cleveland's oldest and most sue cessful merchants one day, we notic ed that he cut off the blank sheet of the letters he waa engaged in filing. The name cf th'13 man ia a synonym of charity and benevolence, and his liberality in all good work. h almost unbounded. His att?n'.i-a beiag call ed to what seemed aa unaioil pro ceeding, he said; ... "Yes, it may strike ya a -iagtilar to save these bau shf' cf pper, but I commenced life our n iy in a conntry store ia New i.-jlatid, and this was on cf th first let--na ia saving little t'aiaga that was taught me by my employer.

It is simply the habit of saving instead of wasting. It is embodied ia the mot to, "Wafte not, want not.' Th-e. fora we say, "Don't cat the striaei.''

The doors were brokea down, and aa the mob rushed in a maa named Rosser shot Johnnie Chisolm, killing him instantly. Judge Chisolm caught cp a gun which had been left ia the room and killed the boy's murderer with a shot. The jail was fired. The C'hiaolms were forced to go forth to the mob. A dczea gun3 were leveled at the fatter, and his daughter, Cornelia, who threw her self upon him, received several balls in her person, which were intended for b:m.

We sum up bri-fly eight essentia! poinU in bread making, aa gathered from recent contributions to aa agri cultural journal cf prominence, and formed from the inner editorial con sciousness, viz : 1. Good wheat flour. Some varie ties cf wheat, such aa are deficient ia gluten, will not make good wh2ft flour. 2. A good miller to grind the wheat. The bread maker should b-j sure to find the giod miller. 3. The wheat should not be ground when dry. Choose a "wet spell'' for; the grinding. 4. The flour Ehcald be sifted before : u-Jng to separate the particles. j o. Good yeast. Thia is made frcm new hops. Stale Lops will not, with : certainty, make lively yeast j C. Thorough kneadioa.

The "happy medium" j m&st be determined upoa and selected, j There are three kind of bread, viz: j S wtet bread, bread and sour bread. 1 Some housewives make sour bread, a great many make bread, but very few j make sweet bread. Sweetness in j bread is a positive noaiity tnax not many makers have yet discovered. A'singular wall has beea discover ed in irginia, oa the line ot cue Richmond and Paavillo Railroad, and ia J ffet 10 inches long, Yo fwt high, 13 im-he thick, at the top, and ! 2ifcct at the bottom.

Tbe atones of which tbe wall is composed are of common, flinty quartz. Tbey are irregularly shaped, but aa flat and smooth aa if designed for the ordinary purpose of masonry. The iatersticesfare filled with smaller stones.- Tbe cement or clay when firs, ex posed to the air is of tbe consistency of putty, but soon iadurates to a de gree that it may be readily cut ia any shape with a pocket knife. It has no obvioas affioity with the soil which lately inclosed the wall, and nothing similar in character can be found ia a radius of miles. It is imbedded ia a micaceous saadatoae, requiring both grabhoe aad pick to extricate it The stones are adjusted with the accuracy of square and plum v Now, as to the Lutory of thia aa earthed wonder. . Fifty or sixty years ago, whea the land waa covered with forests, and being surveyed under the direction cf a Mr. Huddleston, then the owner, the surveyor observed such a deflec tion in -the needle of bis compass as iadicated the presence of metal. It was thought that gold bearing quartz wa3 near. A a excavation was made, but no gold bing found ia tao rock, farthsr search was not prosecuted. Profea sor Campbell, of Lexington, who has ootseea the wall, bat -from the ac counts of it which be has read, thinks it is one of tbe geological dikes (com mon ia some places) aad not the work of man.. But on the other hand, a gentleman of great intelligence, including soma geological acquirements", who.' baa made a thorough examination of the wall, says: "The coap dVil: aa well as aa ex amination of the component part.', proves beyond peradveatura a wal! ms da with human hands and of freat antiquity. Ia ' connection with tha late discovrie3 in Ohio, - it' tends to establish the truth of the theory that a higher order of civilization preceded the Indians oa this continent.
