A Know Nothing Alarm.

The Water6eId Mail tells the following gooc
story about the steady old borough Of Kendalrs
Mills:
Mrs. Soberly went to bed precisely at eight
o'clock, thinking it passing strange that hel
good man had not made his appearance JUS,
ten minutes before. OF course he would be
home in u minute and n half or two minutes al
furthest, and SO Dlrs. Soberly left a lamp burn.
ing on the hall table. There itburnt and burnt
but she must tell her own story, as she told
1t next morning to about thirteen of her most
confidential friends:
We'll, that lamp burnt and burnt, till as near
rs lean guess, twas well nigh on to ten o'clock,
and that man hadn't come! What 10 make ont
| didn't know no MORN the dead-for he hadn't
never been out so before, since the time they
had such a fuss about the Aroostook war
'Twasnt no use to speak to the children, for
they wouldn't know; and so after | had waited
till couldn't wait no longer, I bounced out of
bed, and down stairs l went. went right into
the buttery and raised the window towards Mr..
Blanks, and says | "Mrs. Blank" In a minute
heard her jump out of bed and raise the win.
dow-and says she:
"Why, Mrs. Soberly, what on earth's the
matter!" "Matter," SAYS I-speaking low, be-.
cause | didn't want anybody to hear, "matter!
Mrs. Blank, do tell me if you have seen any,
thing Of my husband!"
@Your husbandr!' says she, ayou didn't sup.
pose I'd got him, did ycn!" and then speaking
almost in a whisper, says she:
Look here-what on earth does this mean!
have you seen anything Of my husband! Then
We both begun to think something had hap
pened certainly, and in about two minutes l
was dressed and over to Mrs. Blanks. Well,
We concluded to step over to Mr.. Quict's, and
start him out for a search; but we hadn't got
half way across the street, talking along, when
we heard the window shove up and Mrs. Quiet, |
says she, "Who's therer! says l, ats me."-l
swell, says she, ''do for PHYS sake tell me |
IL you have seen anything of my husband!
Now wasn't here a pretty pickle? Well. to |
make q long story short, we went up that street
clear TO the school-house, and back on t'other
side, and not a woman did we iod but what
was wondering 'ohat had become other husband.
well, Justas we got to our gate, who should
we see but my husband and Mr.. Blank! "Mr.
Soberly," says ], a little spuuky, "wiil you lust
tell me what all this means!"
"Wha it means" says he, just as cool as if
nothing had unprecedented, Mrs Soberly-
ahem--I should be very glad to crafty you, If
