A DAY IN SNOOSESTADT.
The loud raps of the jailor on the Burgomas
ter's door, soon arrowsid that worthy from his
tint slumber With a curse, which we shall not
print, he hastily donned his morning gown, and
without taking off his red night cap, he opened
the door.
"Wbo hawks at this late boar?" be inquired
angrily.
"0, sir, the State is in danger," exclaimed
Kies Mans.
"What, Kiss, it it you. What has happened "
"The criminal
" Well, sir?"
"Has escaped!"
"What!"
"My honor, my reputation, my salary, all, all
are gone. I will go and drown myself."
"Silence, sir, silence. This matter must be
hushed up Now tell me in a whisper all the
circumstances of tins dreadful affair. Speak low,
BSI
"You must know, your honor, that every even
ing I am obliged to tal:e a half a loaf of bread and
a jug of water to the criminal. Well, I did so
this evening. 'When I left the prisoner she was
cheerful and happy. Her band-cuffs were fast
ened, her good straw bixl was well shook up, and
I wished her joy of the honor which was to be
conferred on her to-morrow, and advised her to
go to bed, and then went to bed myself. About
an hour ago, my wife struck bar elbow into my
side. Klas, said she, what noise is third.? The
cats are making a great rattle np-stairs. What
eats? said I, for I knew that oats were 110 longer
allowed in the City Hall, sines they used to
make their beds for their young ones in your ho
nor's chair—"

"Proceed, sir, proeeed."
"I listened—l peered aro and—l suspected—
I wondered, until perhaps I had spent a half an
hour. At length I jumped of it of bed, lighted my
lantern, hastened up-stairs, Ind slyly opened the
door. When I thrust my I lead into the cell, I
almost fainted with fright al ad amazement. The
bird had flown. The cage was empty."
"The Devil must have he Iped her."
"Ah, who knows? She heel taken off her hand
cuffs, and had broken a greed hole through the
wall into'my pantry, and there she found a ham
and three sausages, whiah she stole, and jumped
through the window."
"A witch: a witch!" exclaimed the Burgo
master. "She shall be burned alive. I will
make such an =non oceniont to-morrow in the
Town Hall. Klan you must go out and cut some
faggots."
"But sir, Fe Waist, catch her first."
"Ilow ur.fortv.aate this is ! I have waited nine

examined her came. The papers and documents

"Most high and powerful Burgomaster, and
Chief iligistrate oi Spoosestadt:
"Pardon me for haring spoiled your ceremo
ny for to-morrow. The thee has at length grown
too tedious for me. I had a desire, a heartfelt
desire, onoe more to breath the free, fresh air of
day."
"Could sbe not have waited until she was sit
ting in the make" inquired Qui, hotly.
"Silence, sir," enolaiszbed the Burgomaster,
and then resumed the latter:
"I am indebted to year brother Mr. Van Dam
for my freedom—"
The Burgomaswir pined at Kiss with an ex
pression of stupid amazement.
"Whet, my brotherr cried he. "Is he ease"
"Thaak God," mid Khie, gleefully, "we must
hold him to bail."
“Eriha w , sir,” mid the Burgomaster returning
to the letter. '. " 4 7
"He had the kindless to loan me a few of his
books. Among them I found the life of Jack
Shepherd, mien that book I learned how to make
my escape, by omega, patience, and pexuree
ranoe. The moment km arrived. I fly! I must
thank you, Mr. Burgomaster for your mouldy
bread." "Perhaps," said the Burgomaster, "she
wanted me to send her fruit cake—" "I am
grateful to Mr. nut Bans for his muddy water."
"It was as clear as a crystal. I got it from
the mill-pond." .
"Silence, sir," cried the Burgomaster, vexed
at the interruption. "I trust the citizens of
Snooeestadt will hold me in their remem bream.
I am sorry that I stole the cow, nine years ago;
but she was very poor. May Heaven bless your
Excellency, sad give you a good appetite for the
feast which you have prepared to follow my de
gradation to-morrow. Eva&au um PI KLIL.
"o," groaned the Burgomaster, "Hoi the
Dundertowners will triumph. My honor, the rep
utation of Snoosestadt.—A.ll, all, is lost. Listen
Kiss are you not acquainted with some patriotic
citizen who would allow his wife to stand in the
moan to-morrow. She might sit with her back
to the crowd, and they would never know the
difference."
"I laws no one. They all like to see sneh
things; but none like to be the actors them
selves."
"Alas! alas. And my brother, my stupid bro
ther is fast asleep whet/ he should be' in action."
The Burgomaster new assailed the door of his
brother's house with a series of furious raps,
which soon called the Post master to the window.
"Zotincis!" cried he:" Who is knocking there;
clear one I don't open ■y More so late "
Thus saying he shatt the window blinds, and
vanished.
"What a cupid felbw," said the Burgomaster
angrily: "Re his brother, the Burgo
master and Chief Mi to of Snoosestadt, for
a customer of his iwfetillf store Get up, I say,
get up," cried he, and renewed his rape on the
door with' ten fold violence
"Now, you below there," said the Postmaster
opening the window again, "if you dont go sway,
I will wake up the first watchman I can find, and
have you taken to jail "
"You had better wake your/felt up first."
"What do I hear? Is it you, my brother, the
Burgomaster Whit are you doing ont there so
late?"
"Come down, come down. I have bad news "
"What! a fire?"
"I wish it had only been a fire, and mach more
wish that your old house was burnt down to the
ground."
"Heaven forbid. I'll be with you in a mo
ment." In a short time, Mr Van Dam, robed
only in his night-gown, stood by his brother's
aide. "Well, well," cried he, "what has hap
pened?"
"0, brother you have conducted yourself ez
eellently well."

"With your books." (Our readers must
excuse us for not writing out the Burgomaster's
words in full )
"Why do you call them so?
"Who, sir, has allowed you to afford amuse
ment to the prisoner."
"Every body reads, now-a-days. The poor
creature had so many long and tedious hours, that
out of charity, I now and then seat her a ro
mance of robbers."
"Excellent."
"I sent her a hymn book once "
"0, you have converted her. She has gone—
she has escaped "
"She has stolen my ham," said Klas.
"And," continued the Burgomaster, "she ix
grateful to you."
"To me?"
"There," said the Bargomastergiviag his bro
ther the letter. "Read that."
Mr. Van Dam took the letter with trembling
hands, and opening it, hastily read by the light
of Klan Hand lantern.
At this moment Pippin, disturbed by the eon
fused noise in the stoop, opened hint window and
thrust his night-caped head forth.
"What murmurings, can those be?" thong' at
he, "what is it that is grumbling and spauezi ag
ao?"
"There, I knew it," said the Burgomaster, p
ee
ceiring Pippin. "All the fools in &loosest. sdt
are waking up."
"What did I bear?" thought Pippia, "can it
be possible?"
"If you can run fat, Mr. Pippin," said the
Burgomaster, "you may come down and ohaes
her."
"What., has Rosa eloped? On the wings of

"Mr. Pippin," mid the Burgomaster, "My
opinion is that you are a fool, if not a fool, thou
you are mad. What are you talking about air!
The criminal, Mr. Pippin, the criminal who was
to be punished to-morrow, has escaped."
"And stolen ay ham and sausages," added
Klas Haas.
"And our worthy brother, has assisted her to
make her escape."
"She reed Jack Shepherd," raid Yen Dem.
"What a misfortuae!" exclaimed Pippin.—
"What will become of the poem, I have written,
espooially for the occasion?"
"The Dandertowners will laugh themselves to

"I don't care kor that," said the Burgomaster.
"What will they think of m in the city?"
"They will my we have no law nor order, and

"0, woe! 0, woe!" exelained Van Dam,—
"Ring the alarm bell, she must be captured."
"It is a very dark night," said theclurgonms

"Then oommand the lamps to be lighted," re
plied Van Dam.
"You know that the moon shines to-night, ac
cording to the almanac," said the Burgomaster.
"But the welfare of the State; the safety of
your brother, and your own honor and reputa
tion demands it," insisted Ve.n Dam, "I myself
will furnish the oil, Klas, ligh t the lamp yonder."
Kiss hastened to obey the order, and when he
had illuminated the lamp, he caught a glimpse
of Rosa's dress. "Ali!" cried he, "the criminal!
the criminal! there she stands before our very
eyes."
"flow? what!" cried all in amazement.
" Yelosad the evil one is with lier,"replied
"Conte forth, come forth, thou godless crea

"Where are my sausages?" cried Kiwi as he
seized Raft roughly by the arm.
"it is 1, your daughter Rosa," said Rosa, ap
proaching her father, "Bid this man release me "
"Can I believe my eyos 9 " exclaimed the Bur
gomaster.
"Rosa, say affianced Rosa, here, , • shouted the
excited Pippin.
"It is a deception of the devil," affirmed Klas
energetically.
"And you too, Mr Eager':" said the Burgo
master,sta Edgar approached
"Did I not say so?" said Pippin
"What have yr,u been doing there?" inquired
the incensed father, while Van - Dam elevated his
hands to heaven, unable to express in words,
"his horror and sorrow "
"To-morrow, dear father, you shall know all.
To-night I must tell you that I love Eager, and
that Pippin I abhor."
"0, thou barbarous woman!" exclaimcd the.
injured Pippin
"Sir," said Eager to the Burgomaster, grave
ly, "I have long loved your daughter, and would
make her my wife. Give rue your eouseut, and
I will proutiso..to assist you out. of your present
dilemma. I will tell them in the city a goodly
story of your proceedings here, and I will :o ar
range it that you will not, be obliged to arrest
your brother. It will be a diffieult matter; but
I assure you that I will do as I say, athough I
cannot deny but that the affair looks pretty bad."
"You had better consent, brother," said Van
Dam earnestly. "The girl will be the talk of
the town, if you do not. She has been found in
the middle of the street, in the night with a
man. Nobody will marry tier after that."
' "I, at least will not," said Pippin, angrily.
"Thanks, Mr Pippin," said Rosa, "but you
niust consent to be my friend.
"Well, well," said the Burgomaster, "let us
now go into the house. "We'll talk the matter
over to-morrow."
Our readers can easily imagine the sequel of
our story. The Burgomaster was not obliged to
put his brother in prison. Pippin consoled him
self with the old proverb, "That there are many
fishes in the sea uncaught" Miss Spindle con
soled herself by vowing that she would never
forgive Mr. Eager; but t we must here state that ,
she not only forgave him but that she consen)ed

It remains for us to state that although the peo

the loss of the spectacle they had so long antici
pated, they were fully satisfied by a great feast
which the Burgomaster, at Edger's expense,
gave them-the following d ay.

PRE LOST BOY
The editor of the Sandusky Mirror was for
merly Warden in the Ohio Penitentiary lie
gives the following, as one of the incidents'
which occurred while be had control of that In
stitution:
I had been but a few months in charge of the
Prison, when my attention was attracted to, and
deep interest felt in, the numerous boys and
young men who were confined therein, and per
mitted to work in the same shops with old and . 1
hardened convicts. The interest was inerea.sed
on every evening, as I saw them congregated in
gangs, marching to their silent meals, and thence
to their gloomy bed-rooms, which are more like
living sepulchres, with iron shrouds, than sleep
ing apartments. These young men and boys,
being generally the shortest in height, brought
up the rear of the companies, as they marched
to the terrible 'lock sleep,' and eoneequently, more
easily attracted attention To see many youth
ful forms and bright couLsi.cuisibec", mulugicd wllL
the old and hardened scoundrels, whose visages
betokened vice, malice and crime, was sickening
to the soul But there was one among the boys,
a lad about seventeen years of age, who had
particularly attracted my attention; not from
anything superior in his countenance or general
appearance, but by the look of utter despair
which ever sat upon his brow, and the silent,
uncomplaining manner in which he submitted to
all the hardships and degradations of prison
life He was often complained of by both offi
cers and men, and 1 thought unnecessarily, for
light and trivial otlen.ces against the rules of pro
priety; yet he seldom bad any excuse or apolo
gy, and never deuyed a charge He took the
reprimand, and Once a punishment, without a
tear or a murmur, almost as a matter of course,
seemingly thankful that it was DO worse He
had evidently seen better days, and enjoyed the
light of home, parents, and friends, if not the
luxuries of life Ilut the light of hope seemed
to have gone out--his health was poor—his face
pale—his frame fragile—and no fire beamed in
his dark grey eye! l thought every night, as I
sae him march to he. gloomy bed, that I would
go to him, and learn his history—but there were
so many duties to perform, so much to learn, mud

feet him—having merely learned that h.- name
was Arthur Lamb, and that his crime was lur
:Airy ,flei larceny, indicating a very bad boy, fo r
one so young! He had already been there a
year, and had two more to .trse rieS r
could outlive his sentence, aud his evunteoauce
indicated that he felt it lie worked at stone
cutting, on the New State House—hence my .1,-
portunities for saving him were less than though
he had worked in the prison yard—QM his pale
face haunted me day and night—at! I resolved
that on the next Sabbath, as he c ame from Sab
bath School, I would send for him, and learn hi.
history It happened however, that I wa. , otio
day in a store., waiting for the transaetiou some
business, awl\ having picked up an old newspa
per, I had read and re-read, while delayed, until
at last my eye fell upon an advertie ment of 'A
lust Boe!—lnfortnation wanted of a boy named
Arthur ,' (I will not give hie real tnne, for
perhaps he is still Ii: ins,, and then fullewed a
description of the boy, exactly correependiug
with that of the young convict. krthur Lamb
Then there was somebody who cared for the poor
boy, if, indeed, it was hue; perhapsa mother, his
father, hi• brothers and sisters, who were search
mg for him The l Atlvertisewent was n, arly
year old—yet I doubted not—and eeoe a.. th e
convicts wire locked up, I ...lent for Arthur Lamb -
Ile came, as a matter of course--with the same
pale, uncomplaining la.e and hopeless gait—
thinking, uo doubt, that something had gone
wrong and been laid to his charge.
I was examining the C'onvict's Register, when
he came in—and when I looked up there he
stood, a perfect ungine of despatr! 1 asked hint
his name. lie replied -Arthur, - Arthur iceore
said I sternly "Arthur I,a rub"' said he,
hesitatingly
"Have ytm a father or mother living?"
His eye brightened—his voice quivered, as he
exclaimed—
"Oh, you have heard from mother ,he
alive? Is she well?" and tear. which l hed
never seen him shed before, ran like great rain
drops from his cheeks. As he became calm
from suspense, I told him I had not hoard from
his parents, but that I had a paper I wished him
to read. He took the advertisement which I
had cut out from the paper, and as he read it he
exclaimed—
“That is mr—that 1.4 me.” And again ob
and tears choked his utterance.
I assured him that the advertisement was all
I could tell him about his parents—and that as it
requested information, 1 de.ired ter know what I
should write in reply The advertisement directed
information to be sent to the editor of the (lin.-
hise Chrouicie, New York.
"Oh, do not write," he said, "it. will dreak
poor mother's heart!"
"1 told him I must write—and that it would b e
a lighter blow to his mother's feelings to know
where he was, but the terrible uncertainty which
must haunt her mind day and night. So he
consented—and taking him to my roam, I drew
from him in substance the following story:
His father was a respectable and wealthy me-
chanie in an interior town of the State of New
York. That Lat the holding of the State Agri
cultural Fair, is. his native town, he got ac
quainted with two stranger boys, older than him-,
self, who persuaded him to run away from home,
and go to the West. HA foolishly consented,
with high hopes of happy times, new scenes and
great fortune? The came as far as Cleveland,
where they • several days. One morn
ing the other two boys came to his room early,
and 'shaved him a large amount of Jewelry4c.,
which they mid they had won at cards, daring
the night. Knowing that he was in need of
funds to pay his board, they premed him to take
sow; of it, for means to pay kis landlord. But
before he had disposed of any of it, they were all
three arrested for burglary, and at a portion of
the property taken from the store which had been
robbed was found in his pomessios, be too, was
tried,eonvioledandaesteseed. Re had ao friends,
no money; and dared not to write home—eo, hope
oak within him—he resigned himself to his
fate—nevcr expecting to get 'ont Of PAW% or
gee hid parents
Upon inquiring of the two young omelets
who came with him on the same charge, I lemma
that what Arthur had stated was strictly true,
and that his only crime was keeping bad com
pany, leaving his home, and unknowingly re
ceiving stolen goods `. Questioned, sops=
they all told the same story, and left no
in my mind of the boy's innocence. Full of eon
pa 'es for the unfortunate little fellow j oat
down and wrote a fall description of Arthur,
his condition, and history, as I obtained it,froes
him; painting the horrors of the
ie b:s 4 r, the.
hopelessness - of his being reformed own
if guilty—and the probability of his never liv
ing out his sentence; and describing the proem
to be used to gain his pardon. This I. seat ac
cording to the directions in the advertionnent.
But, week after week passed and no answers me!
The boy daily inquired if 1 had heard from hie
mother—until at last, "hope long, deferrsd alemed
to make his heart sick," and again be
and pined'. At length a letter came --suel=-
ter! It was from the Res. Dr. Bellows of New
York. Ile hul been absent to a distant city,
but the moment he read my letter the good mom
responded. The father of the poor boy had be
come almost insane on account of his son's long
and tnysterions absence ; he had left his former
place of residence ; had moved from city to city,
from town to town, and traveled up and down
the country, s,.eking the loved and the IRA 1
he had 'pent the most of a handsome fortune;
his wife, the boy' , , mother, was on the brink of
the grave, "pinintr for her first-born, and would
nut be eoinforud " They then lived in a wes
tern city, whither they had gone in the hope of
finding or forgettug their Loy: or that a change
of scene might as-uage their grief. lie thanked
me fur my letter, whieh he had sent to the father,
and promising his 3asistaner to procure the young

This news I gave to Arthur; he seemed pain
ed and plca.ed--hope and fear, joy and gulf
filled his heart, alternately; but from theme his
e y e beamed briifliter, his steep was lighter, and
hope seemed to dance in every nerve !
Days pasted—aud at last there came a man to
the Pri,ou, ru- , liing frantically into the office,
demanding to s e hi, boy "My boy! my boy!
let me s e e him"' The clerk who knew sloth.

of his son. 'Arthur---- 'No such IMO on

over the letter—saw at once that Arthur Lamb
was the convict wanted,, and rang the bell for

Wa., his letwr you shAwed " Too much of a good
thing is often unpleasant The old man embraced
me and wept like a child A thousand times he
thanked me, anti in the nun. , of his wife, heaped
blessinirs upon my _head But the rattling of
the great iron door, and the grating sound of its
hinges indicated the appraich of Arthur, and I
