Farmer Ilendergon came in from
tbe barn ooe morning with bin bauds
and clothes "ret and covered with
mud, his face red tad Lis eves flush-'iff-
"Ned !" lie sbooted, a Le entered
the kitchen. "Where's Xed ?"
' II- re I am !" came a cbierj voice
ia rcjilv ; and an iostant after a
bright, Kironif boy of some tixiecu
yearn entered tbe old fashioned conn
try kitchen from the &djjiuiug ood-i-bed,
where be bad been cutting po.
tatoe6for tbe dayV planiing. "Da
you want anything
"I vrant to tell yoa tbia," eaid Mr.
Ileudcrson, as be washed himself at
the eiuk, and rubbed bid weaiber
beaten face with tbe coarse to we!
ojiil it was even more red than be
fore. "Old Dan mutit be killed !
.Jus; t-ee tbe ta:e I am in, and all
from tbat worthless eld rat-cal! 1
won't have Lim about tbe bouse an
other day. lie's good for nothing
liut tr make trouble, and be roost be
,bot before nigbi!'' added tbe farm
er, wratbfully.
Ned was about to plead for bis pet,
when bis little eister came into the
rocm
"WLy, papa, what is tbe matter 2"
he cried, running to bim in astonish
ment . Did you fall intv tbe cretk,
psp ?"
"1 might as well," !;e replied, La!f
Iiiugbiog. "Old Diin butted no into
lb watering-trough !"
There was a Kboutof lauithter from
both children, in which their motber
joined.
"Well, Jtdedidh," said Mrs. Hen
derson, coming into the kitcbeu, and.
still febakijr with mirth, "wbat
could you have been thinking about
to let an old ram, most twenty years
old, knock you into tbe watering
tronch f "
"But," erplafaed her LusUaad, "be
took cue auawares. I bad just filled
one pail to carry to tbe barn, and
was 6ioo;injr to dip the other, when
tbe old rascal came at me like tbe
wind, and knocked me completely!
into the water I lie scampered, I tell
you, before I could pet out. lie knew
be bad done mischief. Anybow, he's
got to be killed, to-day, sure. lie's
only a nuisance, and I'll shoot bim
to-night, when we como back from ,
town, if he's on the farm!''
Two boar9 later Mr. and Mrs
Henderson drove away to be absent
from home until night As the;
rattled out of tbe yard Old Dan sud
denly appeared close to the gate,
and, wagging Lis tail as if in dera
tion, gave atterance to a boarse
"I?a-a-a!"
The farmer tamed shook bin whip
a: the fellow, and cried, "Tbis is
your last day, my boy, make tbe
most of it !"
Ned and Carrie were the only cbil
dren. Leaving Carrie in tbe buuttt
alone, after they bad considered
awhile whether there was any wav
of advening Old Dan's sad fat Ned
nhoul lered bis boeand marched off to
bis work, planting potatoes with
Uronsoc, tbe hired aian, in tbe "back
lot"
Bat tho little girl of thirteen bad
no thought ot being afraid. She bad
the breakfast dishes to wash, some
sweeping to do, and tbe dinner to
get, all before 1 2 o'clock.
Time Ced. Tbe dishes stood io
shining rows upon tbe pantry
shelves, the broom bad performed it
work, and Carrie was "preparing the
vegetables to be boiled, when there
came a faint knock at tbe door. Sup
posing it to be one of the neighbor,
the little girl did not rise, but called :
"Come in!"
The door was slowly opened and a
man stepped within.
He wore a long black coat, button
ed to bis chin, and very threadbare.
His trousers, too, were black and
suiny, and much too short for him.
On one foot was a boot, while tbe
other was graced by a ragged shoe
He carried a battered silk bat in bis
Land. His lace was long and solemn,
but quite red, Lis eyes bleared, bi
bands were dirty, and altogether be
was a queer looking visitor.
"Is your ma at Lome, miss ?" said
be. in a half whine, as Le glanced
sharply around the room.
"No, sir," replied Carrie, wonder
ing wby ba asked; "she ha gone to
Underhill. Did you wish to tee
her J"
"Oh, no," the maa replied. "I
only asked oct of politeness, you
know," and be smiled solemnly at
tbe little girl, and winked one eye.
"No, I came on business with your
pa particular, urgent business.
S'pose he's round, is be not?"
"No, sir; he went to town wttb
mother," paid Carrie.
"Now that's too bad !" exclaimed
the visitor, aa he seated himself;
"and I've come eo far to see bim
ISut perhaps' your brother or sister
would do as well."
"I haven't any sister" eaij tbe
little hostess laugbiog, "and cay
brother's over ia the back lot. He'll
be in by-and-bye, though, if he will
do."
"Well, I don't hardly believe be
will, after all," said tbe man, shaking
his head tbouf htfully, "and 1 can't
wait to-day anyway; I baint tbe
time. But I'm" terribly hungry. It
I cculd I'd stay to dinner Miss
However, finder tbe circumstances,
perhaps yoa bad better rive me a
light lunch before I go; a piece ot
pie, and a cup of tea,, and a little
-cold meat, or something of tbat eort "
"Ob, certainly ; only I can't give
yaw the meat, for we haven't it in
tb iouse," said Carrie, rising, "but,
I wiH find something " And she
brought from tbe pantry a whole
apple pie, which ene placed before
(him, with a inife and fork.
"If you will help yourself IU have
tUe tea ready ia tiree minutes."
All right, my dear," said tbe man,
'.izing tbe knife and drawing tbe pit
Coward him I will act pon your
advice. Tbe first time I took aUnner
with General Grant," he continued,
cat a great piece, and began to eat,
"he said to me, 'Governor, governor,
said be, 'never disregard a lady's
Advice;' and I have always remem
bered what he said," and be chuck
led merrily, and nodded bis head, at
tbe delicious looking pastry before
im.
; Carrie wondered a little at tbe
liable manners of tbe maa who bad
! dined wiib Grant, but the steeped
J his tea, flavoring it with rich cream
land passing it to bim.
"I am not much of a hand for tea,"
f-tld tbe man, as be drained tbe cup,
"but roy doctor saya tbat I must
'drink it far my digestion. Rained
imydit'eoiion while I was in the
army, yoa see ;" and he winked sol
, e mrily. "By the way," he continued,
'nickinff ud tbe silver teaspoon from
! his saucer, "have vou any more of
thpse ? They are "as neat a pattern
1 as I ever f aw, and odd too. I fboold
Jibe to ee tbe rest of the dozen, if
I t ju have them."
! ' "Mother has only eleven," said
' Carrie, in ber innocence, "and ebe is
; very proud of them ; but I will show
them io you."
Then the b ought the little box
itb the precious table silver eleven
teaspoons, four tableepoonB and an
accicnt cream jag all pore silver,
and i-hining brightly and placed
them before ber icqoieitive visitor to
admire.
He bad Guisbed his "light lunch."
Tbat is, tbe pie was demolished and
the tea pot empty. As the liule girl
handed bim tbe treasure be arose,
took tbe bux to tbe window, examin
ed its contents with a critical eye for
a moment, and then, as iflnjjjfal
e.urprie, cried :
"I am right! Tbey are the very
ppoonsl Tne very same identical
spoons that bit friend lost when be
was a boy. llow locky it is that I
have fjund tbem at last 1"
With these words, and a very low
bow, tbe rascal opened the door and
slipped away with the spoons and tbe
silver cream pitcher down the path
toward tbe gate.
For a moment Carrie stood motion-lew-;
then, rushing after him, the
shrieked :
"Give me those spoons !" Tney
are my mother's Bnoons, and yoa are
trying to 6teal them! You are a
thief, a thief! Bring tbem back!
bring tbem back!"
Tbe man, however, pid no atten
tion to tbe child's crioe, but ran rap
idlv down the path, carrying the box
in'iiis arms; and the spoons and
pi-.cber would have been lost forever
if a new party bad not happened on
tbe t-oeoe.
O.d Dan was quietly nibbling the
frasn near the gate way. Hearing
bis litUe mistress' voice, he looked
uo at tbe very instant that tbe tramp
pawd. What be saw about the man
that disturbed bim I don't know ;
but, erecting bis bead with a hoarse
"B-a-a !" be shot after him KLo a
cannon ball.
Tbe man turned to receive him and
defend himself, bat the ram struck
bim fairlv in front and knocked bim,
half fceBsiiless, flat on his back, scat
tering tbe silver in all directions.
Fur an instant tbe fellow remained
sprawling in tbe c'ust, then he slowly
arose, limuing and groaning, and
wittont a glance at the enemy, began
to gather up bis stolen spoils.
He bad partly completed his task
wbeo Old Dan, wto all ibis time bad
been watching tbe proceedings from
beneath bi shaggy eyebrows, ciook
bis long beard, and with another tro-,
mi adous "Ba-a-a!" dashed at bim
arain, ana over he went a second
lime, bis treascres flying from bis
bands.
And now begaa a ttaoge battle.
Wiib cries of rage and pain, tha man
recovered bis feet and turned upon
tbe ram, kicking aod striking at him
furiously, while Dan, accustomed to
Huch warfare from years of eiperi
euce wiib tbe boys of the country
side, easily eluded him, and io re
turn butted him to tbe earth again
aud aain.
Tee spoons and cream pitcher were
kaotksd hither and thither, as the
cotapitauts struggled, the road was
trampled into something like a race-1 make a heavy plunge with both bi

ing, wiib clothes in rags, minus hat
aud shoes, the vanquished man sud
denly turned away and ran limping
down the road, leaving his antagon
ist in fall possession of tbe field and
the stolen silver.
Old Dan remained motionless, goz
ing after his enemy aniil he disap
oeared around a distant turn in the
road ; then shaking tbe dost from
biscjurse wool, he gave Btterance to
a lo irrumble of satisfaction, and,
wasreine his tail, returned to the din
ner in front of tbe bouse.
naif an hour later, as Carrie wash

little Ditcher and laid them carcluliy
away ooce more, sbe told ber brother
the story, ana now tne roooer wt

crid :
"We will not kill Old Dan at all,
for I do not believe that father would
shoot him now or a hundred dol

And tbe boy was rigit. The old

To have this regetable Ctf-rthe
table at an early d&ia it is necessary
to employ expeditious methods of ob
taining plants. A couple of weeks
ago we gave, at tbe request of scae
of our readers.the approved method of
isakiog a bot bed, aud in tbe last is
sue of tbe rrairie Farmer a corres
pondent details bis method of prod o"
ing bot tool heat by tbe use of 6. e.
By either method plants from early
sowing of seed may be obtained sev
eral weeks in advance of the time
wben tbey may reasonably be looked
for, if sowing seed is delayed until it
is prudent to sow in the open ground.
T;iin sowing is preferable in tbe hot
bed, for if pittcts are too thick' tbey
crowd each other, grow spindling,
and are less hardy anj vigorous
wben transplanted than whaa tbey
staad far enough apart to let in sun
light aod air. In a few days the
young plaau will have a growth of
three or four locoes, and will require
to be aired, if nndar class. Or tbe
seed may be sown ia shallow boxes,
aod placed in a south window where
ibey wU germinate and grow until
large enough to transplant. Some
times tbe plant are transplanted into
cold frames, where those are at hand,
aud remain there sntit all danger of
frost u past, aod then set out tarco
or four feet apart where tbey are to
remain This course makes them
stocky and hardy, if the are well at
tend to, aud secures fruit earlisr than
by other methods. Ia transplanting
to tbe open ground, it ia well to se
lect some sheltered spot where tbe
soil is moderately rich. If located on
the eouth side of a building or fence,
the growth of tbe plant will bo expe
dited. Some support for the branches
of ibe vinea fdonld be provided to
keep tbe fruit from the ground, and
wben tbe fruit is Bet, a few inches
cut from the top of the vines will
cause more rapid ripening.
OSE-SIDE0 FIGHT.
The debate on the amendment to
tbe army bill, prohibiting ttoops at
the polls as a police fores to preserve
order was concluded in committee of
the whole on Monday of last week,
and the bill parsed. Tbe Republi
cans bad tbe debate to themselves,
and fifteen of their gaseous orators
made speeches against the ptoposi
tion which they voted and which
Mr. Hayes approved last Jane. They
waved the bloody shirt high, bat fail
ed to elicit a response. They had
tbe fight to themselves, except this
little interlude introduced by Mr
C.x to fcbow tbe one sided character
ot tbe struggle :
Congressional Record, April 1 1
Mr. Cox I do not intend to de
bate. I want to have a descriptive
scene to illustrate this afternoon in
the House rea l from tbe "Georgia
Scenes," written by Judge Long
street, to shew wbat a one-sided
fight we have bad.
Mr. Frye Ucw much of it?
Mr. Cox Not very long, bat it is
interesting.
Mr. Frye I wieh to yield my re
maining time to the gentleman from
Wisconsin.
Mr Cox But you yielded to me.
Mr Frye 1 yielded to the gentle
man for a speech.
Mr. Cox Tbis is part of my
speech.
Mr. Frye Tbe gentleman can
speak 60 much better than a book, 1
wish to hear bim. Cries of "Read!'
"Read!-
Mr Frye I now yield five minutes
to tbe gentleman from New York to
make a speech by proxy.
Mr. Cox Tbe "gentleman from
New York" prefers to make a speech
by Coxy. Laughter I send my
speech to tbe clerk's deck.
Tbe clerk read as follows :
Rapt with tbe enchantment of the
season and the scenery around me, I
was slowly rising tbe slope, when I
was startled by loud profane and
boisterous voice, which seemed to
proceed from a thick covert of under
growth about two hundred yards lo
advance ot me and about two hun
dred yards to tbe right of my road.
"You kin, kin you ?"
"Yes I kin, and am able to do it !
Boo-oo-oo! On, wake snakes, and
walk you clak-! B.imstone and
Crel Dou'i bold me, Nick Stoval!
Tbe fight's made np, and let's go at
it ; my eoul if I don't jump down
bis tboatand gallop every chittering
out of him before yoa can say 'quit !' "
"Now, Nick, don't hold bim! Jist
jet tbe wild cat come, and I'll tame
bim. Jsed'li ace me in a fair fight,
won't you, edf"
"Oh, yes; I'll sea you a fair ffght,
blast my old ehoes if I doa't."
'That's sbflicient, as Tom Hayncs
said wben be saw tbe elephant. Now
let Lira come !"
Tbus they went on, with cooatloss
oatba interpperscd, which I dare not
even bint at, and with much tbat I
could not distinctly bear. i
In mercy's name, thought I, what
band of ruffians has selected tbis holy
season and this heavenly retreat for
such r&ndernonian riots? I quicken-
zi rny gate, and had come nearly op
posite ILs tbicK grove wnence tne
voice proceeded, C beri my eye caught
indistinctly and at iatorrals through
the foliage of tbe dwarf-oaks and
hickories which intervened, glimpses
hfamanor men who seemed to be
ia a violent struggle; aad IJ'-ould oe
casionallr catcb those deep drawn,
emphatic oaths which men incooflict
utter wben they deal blows. I dis
mounted and hurried to tbe spot
with all speed. I bad overcome
about balf tbe spate wbicb separated
it from me, when I saw the combat
ants come to tbe ground, and, after a
6hort strugsle I saw tbe uppermost
one (for I could not see the other)
ueuru a cry iu iuc aivcu, vi uv cu-
est torture :
"Enough ; my eye's out !"
I waB so completely horror-struck
that stood transfixed for a moment
to tbe spot vbere tbe cry met me.
Tbe accompliees in tbe hellish deed
wbicb bad been perpetrated .bad all
fled at my approach ; at least I sup
posed so, for they were not to be
seen.
"Now, blast your corn-shacking
soul," aid tbe victor, (a youth of
about eighteen years old,) as be rose
from the ground, "come cutt'n your
shines about me again, next lime I
corae to tbe court bouse, will yen !
Get your owl-eye in again, if you
can!" " '
At this mossent be saw me for the
first time. He looked excessively
embarrassed, and was moving off
wben I called to biui, in a tone em
boldened by tbe sacred oess of my of
fice and the iniquity of tbe crime,
"Come bvck, you brute, and assist
me in relieving your fellow mortal
wbom yoa have ruined forever."
My rudeness subdued his embar
rassment in en inatant; and with
a taunting curl in the nose, be re.
plied:
"Yon ncda't kick before you are
spurred There ain't nobody there,
nor han't been notber I was jist
seeing bow I could 'a foul ." So say
ing be bounded to bis plow, which
stood io the corner ot about fifty
yards beyond the great battle ground
I went to tne gound from wnicn be
had risen, and there were tbe prints
of nis two tnumbs, plunged up to tbe
balls on tbe mellow earth, aboat tbe
dit-iacce of a man's eyes apart; and
tbe ground around was broken up as
if two tag.ihtt.d been engaged opon
it.
Great laughter aod applause J
Mr. Olekaoai a Hmmp.
We bad a lecture on phrenology in
Musser's bull a few night ago, from
a tajelliog professor of tbat science,
aod parts oi it ere quite interesting.
He bad on tbe stand several plaster
beads mapped out ia torn lots, and
after he had explained what the
meant, he invited persons in the au
dience to come up and let Liu teei
tbeir bamps and explain their char
acttrs Several times he hit pretty
accurately, $sd excited a conridere
amount of applause; but after a
a hile old Dicksjn stepped p fur aa
examination. He is an absent Bund
ed mau, and he wears a wig. While
difssing himself before coming to tbe
lee i ore, Ls bad placed bis wig on the
bureau and accidentally tossed his
plug of tobacco into it. W&en he
put the wig on, it was just lie him
not to notice tbe plug, and so wten
he mounted the platform he had a
lump jaat orer his bump of combat
iveuesa as big as half a ben's egg.
Tbe professor ugered about awhile
orer Dickson's head, and ftbea he
said t
"We hare here a somewhat re
markable skull ; tbe perceptive facul
ties quite good, ideality large, benev
olence very prominent. Secretive
nes U small, and the subject, there
fore is a man of candor and frank
ness; he commnntcates what he
knows freely. We bave also," said
the profeeser, still plowing bis hand
through Mr. Dickson's hair, "acqniei-
tiveness not large ; tbe subject is not
grasping, avaricious men, but he
gives liberally, he he he , why,
it can't bel Yes.- Wby, wbat a
tbe ! Munificent Moses! that's the
most awful development of combai
ivenes4 I ever beard of. " Are you a
prize fighter, sir ?"
"Pria9 fighter !" exclaimed Dick
eon. "Wby, wbat do you mean V
"Never oeen a solaier, cr a pirate,
or anything like that?''
"You certainly must be crazy,"
said Dickson.
"Ain't you fond of going into
scrimmages and rows, atd plugging
people oq the noee ?"
"Certainly not."
"Well, sir, tbea yoar're untrue to
y oar nature. The way yenr head is
built, qualified yoa, I should say, in
a special manner as a knocker down
and dragger out If you want to ful
611 your mission, you will devote tbe
remainder of your life to battering up
your felloe men and keepingyouraelt
in one interminable and eternal muss
You've got tbe a wfulle&t bump tbat
ever decorated a human skull. It's
phenomenal. WhatH you t&ka for
your neaa ween you aie i utnt.e-
men, tbis man is liable at any mo
ment to commeoce ragiug around tbe
commonitv like a wild cat, bunging
with a club or anything that comes
handy. It isn't eafa for him to be at
large."
Then Dickson put Lis band up to
feel the bamp and he noticed tbe to
bacco. He pol.'ed on nis wig, ana
there was tbe plug sticking just be
hind hu left ear Then the professor,
lokoing at it a moment io confusion,
said :
"Ladies and gentlemen, we will
now tbe lecture is tbat is I bave
ao more Boy, turn oat those
lightB!"
Then tbe audience langnea, ana
Dickson pat on his wig, and the
professor started to catch tho last
train.

Dickson still remains peaceable.

The other day two eirangera were
toasting their shins on eppjxite sides
of a big etove ij a ferry wharf sa
loon, and it was noticed that tbey
often looked at each other as if . al
most certain tbat tbey bad met some
where before. Finally one of tfceui
got up and said :
"Stranger, I've seen a faca almost
like yours. Did you bave a brother
Bill?"
'"Yes
"Was be a sailor ?"
"He was."
"Did yoa bear of him last about
ten years ago ?"
"Yes, jat about ten years ago."
"Stranger," continued the firii
seeming greatly affected, "I've sailed
with your brother Bill. We were
wrecked together on tbe Paeific,. and
before help came I bad to kul and
eat bim. I kuew you must be reiat

yoa thiuk is fir ?"
Ibe oiber wiped a tear from
Liit
eye, spat across tbe stove, and
re
plied :
"Stranger, where is year dad ?"
"Been dead these twelve years."
"Died in Nevada, didn't ha ?"
"Yen, out there somewhere."
"Well. I killed bim ! I knew you

It was bad ou hira but it saved me.
Now, you ate my brother Bill, aad I

They shook, drank and the old

"Waal when the day sot ior tbe
