THE PRETTY WAITER GIRL. THE F1K8T place wo remember to linve noticed her was at Don Tros tie's Franklin ItoUBC,Chombersburg,Pa., when General Patterson's column occu pied that pretty town In the spring 1801, (She wns merely one of the, helps itbout tho Iioubo waited on the tables, made herself generally useful, and during the long pleasant evening lllrted outrageous ly with the new-fledged Union olllecrs, young in years and experience. Hhe wns evidently got up for the walter-glrl business, for truth compels us to say that at the first she looked as little fitted to her position as possible. Hhe wns a tall brunette, with a pleasant expression and a decidedly prepossessing ludy-llko manner, and her clothes fitted her In a wny that made her look like a countess beside the cxhuberant Franklin girls, profuse alike In form and raiment. Sho was not at all prudish, and had strings to her bow ranging all over the gamut, from a second lieutenant to n colonel ; but they only appeared to get a certain distance Into her good gruces, when the atllitr came to a sudden termination with tho male parly looking very foolish If the name of Lizzie Anderson was men tioned, l'atterson's column moved to Hagcrstown, and Lizzie was In the dining-room at Yengllng's 'Washington House when the first olllcer got there to din ner. Of courso I was glad to see her, and remarked : " Hallo, Lizzie! I thoughtyou were nt Chambersburg." " Oh, no," and she showed her pretty white teeth pleasantly. " I have, como down here to work. Your moving away threw me out of a place, and I had to follow." "Oh ! ah 1 yes very true. Clet mo another pleco of chicken, will you?" and the officer thought no more about it except to reflect that he was glad sho was there to wait on him. At the Washington Houbc Mary Lamb first Baw Lizzie, and figured her up to Itoyeo Cludham with the slightly super cilious remark : " Very gorgeous stylo of hand-maldcu they got up here." "Yes; I saw her yesterday at the Franklin, In Chambersburg." "An Itinerant young lady, probably." " Doubtless." Then the column moved to Wlllloms port, and Mary Lamb told John Eu singer, of tho Potomac Hotel that If ho couldn't afford water In his guests' rooms, he had better turn his house Into a saw-mill. He said she should have a pumpful right away, and in five min utes Lizzie appeared with It. " You seem to have left Hagcrstown and Chambersburg," etc., said Mary. " Apparently." " Army attachment V" " Oh, no ; I have to work for a living, and go where It is to bo had." " Then your military attachment is entirely financial, and your patriotism speculative," pursued Mary, with her mouth full of pins. " I don't understand you, but I expect' it is." "Ahl what charming naivete." "The which, Miss?" "No, thank you, nothing else," and Lizzie demurely departed. Then Mary Lamb turned and looked at the door which closed after her as though it was a particular difficult sum in arithmetic further along in the book than she had ciphered. A few days more passed. The battle of the Falling Waters was added to the history, and Patterson's column occupied Martinsburg. Iloyce Cludham secured a couple of rooms at John Mac cabee's Union House and hunted up Mary. " I've got good quarters for you Mary, at the Union House. You'll be com fortable I know, for that pretty waiter- girl la there who attended to you at Ha- gerstown and Wllliamsport." " Well, that young woman must be remarkably sudden in her movements. We haven't been here four hours our selves. How did she get here V Keeps a private balloon probably." "Haven't the slightest idea. You'll have to ask her how she locomotes, if you want to know." Mary Lamb had been at the Union House two or three days, when one morning she heard Mrs. Maccabce Jaw ing as only an irate landlady of the war times could jaw. The new girl had gone oflf yesterday after supper to see some other girl, and hadn't come back, and her help was wanted, and she was bad, mean, good for nothing, and generally to be condemned in consequence. She didn't turn up until the second morning after, when she came in with her head tied up, and looking as though she had not slept for a week. She said she bad taken sick and stayed with her friend, whose name she gave, and the landlady said she would see about such carryings on ; then told her to go to work, and in an hour forgot all about it. All these things Mary Lamb noticed, and her gum in arithmetic grew more compli cated. " Koyce," she said, " I'd give seven dollnrs If you were aright good-looking young fellow a lady-killer, In fart." " Why such a supererogatory wish V Who do you want killed V" "Nobody; but I'd Just like somebody to get that girl sweet enough on them to find nut who she la." " She's Lizzie Anderson I s'pose. At least so she gives herself out." " Sho Is no moro Lizzie Anderson than she 1b a servant-girl." " Do you think not V" " The servant-girl of the period don't whlstlo airs from 'Fra Dlavolo' and swear softly to herself In French and high German." " I'm not much up In the ethics of servanlgallsm, but I should suppose they didn't at least not to any alarming ex tent." " Well, this girl does." " She shouldn't do It. Wouldn't you be doing her n kindness to talk to her a little? Give her a tract about profane swearing, or any other kind of swearing In fact, do something for her." "Yes oh yes; I'll do something for her witli tho greatest pleasure in life If she ain't considerably sharper Hum I take her to be." From that time forward Miss Lamb devoted her time and talents to watch ing Miss Lizzie's movements,. If the girl went only ten yards from tho house sho was shadowed, and If she went fur ther she was watched with more vigil ance. Palleneo won Its reward. Mary found that the girl every second evening paid a visit of two hours' duration to a house on one of the back streets of Mar tinsburg, near the old Jail. Inquiry dis closed nothing unusual about tho house. The inmates claimed to be strong Union people, and had made the acquaintance of Miss Anderson by accident, and she came there because she knew up one elso in the place. The alliilr was allowed to drop, and Miss Lamb, giving out that she was going homo to Pennsylvania, left the hotel. That night got up as a small vagabond boy, sho loafed about until Miss Anderson entered the house in question. Then she sut down and waited, concealed behind the garden fence of a neighboring house. Sho saw no more of the girl, but In fifteen min utes a stout-looking boy, In rough sum mer clothes and a wlde-rlnimed slouch hat, came out with a small busket and walked down street toward the Opuquan Creek, whistling. Mary Lamb thought Hint whistling was a little familiar, and followed It. The boy ahead walked down to the creek, stopped his whistling and, ufter looking around, cautiously got over the fence into tho mcudows,and walked down the creek's bank. After about two hundred yards he came to a picket, gave the countersign, and passed on. The other boy did the same thing, leaving tho guard wondering If all tho boys in Martinsburg had the counter sign. With careful dodging and watch ing Mary followed the objectionable boy down to the meadows through a narrow piece of woodland and had the pleasure to see her enter a small log-house on the edge of the ensuing clear land. Work ing noiselessly up to this cabin to find it closed and dark she listened carefully but there was not a sound. In about five minutes tho boy came out, looked carelessly around, and sauntered ofT to ward town again, swinging his basket, evidently empty. This time Miss Lamb did not follow. She lay still concealed by the high weeds and poke bushes, oc casionally wondering why a snake did not crawl up her trowsers leg. Hour after hour she waited with becoming pa tience, and Just as she was beginning to feel drowsy she heard the quick patter of a horse's feet. The rider dismounted about twenty yards from the cabin tied his horse, and went inside. In a mo ment he came out again with a small bundle in his hand, evidently papers, which he hastily concealed under his coat, buttoned it up, and cantered away. Then Mary Lamb shook her stiffened limbs and wended her way back to Mar tinsburg, astonishing the sleepy picket by coming along with the countersign just when the daylight was beginning to streak the east. That day a careful examination the old cabin was made. It was found sim ply to be lonely, uninhabited, and noth ing more. The following afternoon Mary Lamb concealed herself in the cabin loft, while Jerome Clauson and Iloyce Cludham picked themselves out convenient hiding places among the rank vegetation outside, and a cavalry sergeant was carefully Instructed where to post his ten dismounted men handy in the woods. When evening came all were on the watch. There was enough starlight to render objects visible at short distances. The boy with a basket ap peared about half an hour after sun down. He entered the cabin, and set ting down his basket, proceeded to pull up a stone of the dilapidated hearth. Then Miss Lamb over his head spoke. " Lizzie Anderson, if you move a nius. cle I'll blow your head off!" and the boy didn't move. "Stand perfectly still," added Mary " It's all right." Then Cludham and CIiuikoii cnnio In and secured her. 'Have you anything to sny V" asked Itoyce. "Nothing at all." And they took her out and turned her over to tho ser geant, who sent a couple of men to head qurrters with her at once. Then tho party got Into their positions again and waited for the man. It was three o'clock In tho morning when he came. He tied his horse as before, and entered the cab. In. He was no sooner Inside than ono of tho cavalrymen had the horse. As he was obo.it to sump by the hearth tho voice overhead remarked : " If you move a niusclo you uro a dead man I" Hut ho didn't heed. Springing through tho door, he cocked his revolver as he went, and fired on the first man ho saw, which was Clawson. Ho made for his horse, with bullets flying all around lilm. When ho saw It was gone ho leaped over tho low fence, to be struck three times before he touched the ground.. The cavalrymen and Cludham inadoa rush on him as ho fell. Hut It was use less ; ho was quiet. They took the body Into tho cabin, struck a lightand search, edit, to find nothing at all that would tell his name or business. Near tho hearth sat the little basket Lizzie Ander son hud brought. . It contained late cop ies of the I'lilladelphla and New York papers, and lengthy written details of the latest movements in Patterson's col umn, vith carefully calculated surmises of probable movements in the future, In an envelope by Itself waB tho counter sign of that night and a rude drawing of the picket line. Next day in accord ance with the orders from headquarters the strangei was burled quietly in the woods where he fell. , Kvery means short of actual torture was brought to beur tin tho girl, Llzzio Anderson to Induce her to tell from whom she had obuilned her Information and the countersign, but the efforts wero useless. Her only answer was : " I come of a Southern family that never bctriiyb Its friends.rlght or wrong. I will never tell anything." And she didn't. She was heldaclose prisoner until the command reached Harper's Ferry, where, In the confusion of l'atterson's leaving and Hanks' tak ing charge, ono morning Llzzio Ander son turned up missing, and Mary Lamb mourned her departure. " I think it's a downright shame, so I do. I had all the trouble of catching that particular sharp young woman, and then to think they had to let her run away afterwards in one of my best dresses." Saved By His Daughter. HPIIE daughter of a rector, residing in JL a quiet English village, was on the eve of marriage. Grand preparations were made for the wedding ; and the rector's fine old plate and the costly gifts of the bride, were discussed with prido and pleasure at tho Hare and Hounds in the presence of some strangers who had come down to a prize-fight which had taken place In tho neighborhood. That night, Adelaide, who had occupied a sep arate room from her sister, sat up late long after all the household had retired to rest. She had a long interview with her father and hod been reading a chap ter to which he had directed her atten tion, and since, had packed up her jew. els, etc. She was, consequently, still dressed when tho church clock tolled midnight. As it ceased, she fancied she heard a low noise like that of a file; she listened, but could distinguish nothing clearly. It might have been made by some of the servants still about, or perhaps it was only the creaking of the old trees. She heard nothing but the sighing of the winter winds for many minutes after ward. Housebreakers were mere myths In that place. She was gazing on a glittering set of diamonds, destined to be worn at the wedding, when her bed room door softly opened. She turned, looked up, and beheld a man with a block mask holding a pistol in his band, standing before her. " You are come," she said in a whis per, "to rob us. Spare your soul the awful guilt of murder. My father sleeps next to my room, and to bestartled from his sleep would kill .him. Make no noise, I beg of you." The fellow was astonished and cowed, " We won't make no noise," he replied, suddenly, "if you give up to us every thing quietly." Adelaide drew back and let him take her jewels not without a pang, for they were precious love gifts, remarking at the same time that two other ruffians stood at the half-opened door. As he took the Jewel case and watch from the table, and demanded her purse, she ask. ed him if he intended to go into her father's room. She received a surly affirmative ; he wasn't going to run all risk and leave the tin behind. She pro posed instantly to go herself, saying : " I will bring you what you wish, and you may guard me thither, and kill me if I play you false." The fellow consulted his comrades,and after a short parley they agreed to the proposal ; and with a pistol pointed at her head, the dauntless girl crossed tho passage, and entered the old rector's room. Very gently sue stole across tne chamber, and removing his purse.watch keys and desk, she gave them up to the rubbers who stood In the door. The old man slept peacefully and calmly, thus guarded by his child, who softly shut tho door, and demanded If the robbers Wpre yet satisfied. ' The leader said they should bo when they got the plate spread out below, and they couldn't let her out of sight, and sho must go with them. In compliance with this mandate she followed them down stairs to the dining room where a splendid wedding break fast had been laid to save trouble and hurry on the morrow. To her surprise, tho fellows eight in number when assembled seated them selves and prepared to makon good meal. They ordered her to get them out some wlno, and to cut her own wedding ciiko for them ; and then, seated at the table, sho was compelled tf) preside at this extraordinary revel. They ate, drank, laughed and Joked ; and Adelaide, quick of ear and eye, hod time to study, In her quiet way, tho fig ures and voices of tho whole set. When the repast was ended, and the plate transferred to a sack, they prepared to depart, whispering together, and glancing at tho young lady. For tho first time Adelaide's courage gavo way, and she trembled ; but the leader, ap proaching her, told her they did not wish to barm her but she must swear not to give tho alurm till nine or ten in the next day when they should be off all safe. To this she wasobliged to assent and they all insisted on shaking hands with her. She noticed, during the part ing ceremony, that one of the ruffians had only three fingers on the left hand. Alone, and lu tho despoiled room, Adelaide, faint and exhausted, awaited tho first gleam of daylight; then, as the robbers did not return, stolo up to her room, undressed and fell into a disturb ed slumber. The consternation of the family next morning may bo Imagined ; and Adelaide's story was more astonish ing than tho fact of tho robbery itself. Police were sent for from London, and they, guided by Adelaide's lucid descrip tion of her midnight guests, actually ' succeeded In capturing every one of the gang, whom the young lady had no diffi culty in identifying, and swearing to the " three-fingered Jack," being the guiding clue to the discovery. The stolen property was nearly all recovered, and the old rector always de clared ho owed his life to the self-posses- slon of his daughter. Wit In Court. Keen and cutting words, or even tri fling incivilities indulged in at the ex pense of counsel, hove sometimes met with swift retribution. Plunket was once engaged in a case,, when, toward the close of the afternoon, it became a question whether the court should ad- lrmrn fill tho TipTt, dnv. T'lnnlrpt. pt. pressed his willingness to go on if tha Jury would "set." "Sit, sit, sit," said the presiding Judge, "not set, hens set.?' " I thanlcyou my lord," said Plunket. The case proceeded, and presently the Judge had occasion to observe that if that were the cane, he feared the action would not " lay." " Lie, my lord, lie," ex claimed the barrister ; "not "lay," hens lay." " If you don't stop your coughing, sir," sold a testy and Irritable judge, " I will fine you 100." "I'll give your lordship 200 if you can, stop it for me," was the ready reply. ' On one occasion Curran was pleading before FItzglbbon, tho Irish chancellor, with whom he was on terms of any. thing but friendship. The chancellor, with the distinct purpose, as it would seem, of insulting the advocate, brought with him on to the bench, a large New foundland dog, to which he devoted a great deal of his attention while Curran was addressinga very elaborate argument to him. At a very material point In the speech the judge turned away, and seemed to be wholly engrossed with his dog. Curran ceased to speak. ."Goon, go on, Mr. Curran," said the chancellor. " Oh, I beg one thousand pardons, my lords," said the witty barrister, "I really was under the impression that your lordships were in consultation." Good people despise the man who leads men astray; the man who, in the strength of a noble manhood, might have blest mankind, been the support and pride of some affectionate family circle, a living illustration of what God designed when he made man " in His own image." Even If a moderate drinker, he knows that he is wasting his money and hurting his own home. He knows that one glass may start a soul on the wrong track, and make of a beautiful boy a bleareyed sot. He knows how he may blacken a soul for all eterni ty, yet misery loves company, and he draws his fellow into the same male-storm.
