a wealthy planter, and was returning with

the back of the boat, where, by a sudden
effort, the child sprang frol her arms

THE OLD HAN AND THE PIRATE

Early in the month of August, 1912, a
good sized brig started from Boston bound
tor New Orleans On board, there was
an old man named Adam Writ, seeking
an only son whom he had learned was
somewhere on the coast of the Gulf of
Mexico Adam Writ was wealthy, but
for four years be had been left alone to
dwell among It's glitter. When The old
man had taken a second wife TO his home,
his son Landon stepped from his roof,
and swore that 50 long as his step-mother
lived he would not cross its Threshold
again. The second wife was now dead,
and feeling sad in his loneliness, the Old
man resolved to seek his child.
The brig had good weather, and for
several days nothing had occurred TO
break the monotony of the voyage; but
at length one of the lookouts reported a
sail to the southwark and eastward. The
wind was from the east, and the brig had
it slightly abaft the beam as her course
lay south.
Poole brought his glass from the cabin,
and after gazing on the ranges for some
ten minutes, made her out to be a schoon-
er standing out directly towards them.
Where DO you think she is bound g
asked Adam Wlrt. as he heard the cap
tain's report.
Couldn't say yet" replied the captain
again leveIing his glass at the stranger,
g [ can tell YOU better after watching her
a SPELL
Fifteen minutes passed, and at the end
of that time Captain Poole lowered his
glass, and while slight tremor shook his
frame he said
" That Schooner is falling off,
And what of that g asked the old
man, who had failed to take notice of the
captains manner.
What of it? why simply that fellow
/ is bound for this brig"
"Wants to speak to US, l suppose -
said Writ.
VERY likely" returned the captain as
he went aloft; and again turning to the
old man, he continued, you need be un.
der no needless alarm sir, bu, in all prob.
ability that schooner is a pirate"
a pirate" said Writ, while his face
assumed livid hue; then in heaven:
name what shall we do?"

THE FARMERS OF WI ;CoysIy.

THE country along the Horizon, Ripon
and Berlin Railroad is sight to see. We
never saw more continuous grain field
in our life. Upon 4 thousand hills and
In a thousand valleys stand wheat sheafs

we had never seen a finer sight The land
seemed fairly to laugh and grew fat. 1t.

most hear the words of the text-"Aha.
am full" Great fellows, those farmers
up there = princes and lords, and noble
men. They didn't IN nj the going along
of railroad train, bu, stood upon their
great stacks as we passed along, looking
with indifference upon that black and
smoky locomotive which depended fer It's
living upon the shiIings and sixpences OF
such fellows as us, and carrying to market
OF such gram as they do not want them
selves. Those moving machines. with
three and four horses, marched through
the waving fields gathering in more wealth
IN an hour than we sore-footed aud sorry
hearted town folks could get together in 4
month; and then the sun shone upon and
the West breeze famed the faces OF as
happy, as honest, as independent men,
as you can fnd in a years I. avel. Ocu
HONE for the country! We have been
spoken 10 encouragingly about certain
very fine public positions, bat we don't
want any Of them. We w n s5me broad
acres up there on that prairie, we want
one of those marvellous reapers, and some
good horses TO draw 1t, and some cattle
to range the hills, and sturdy health, which
receives alike gratefully the glowing sun
shine, the warm, sweet rain, or the dew
Of the morning we want an old-fashioned
farmhouse, with a bread porch, where
we can sit with the good wife and the
household treasures, when the days work
IS done, and drink with our friends home
brewed ale, if YOU like il t-or if not,
then the spring water which shall ripple
down the bank just by, and sing 10 us al
ways a purling song of contentmen,. And
when their lovers shall come to see our
daughters, they shall find them at the
spinning wheel or in the dairy with their
happy and modest looks, instead of in the
parlor, pulled out with unseemiy skirts
and looking forward TO get married as
the aim of life. And our boys shall go
TO town Ia home-spun clothes, driving
those fine teams and carrying those great
loads Of wheat. And when they get mar
ried, we VIII run new fences across the
farm, and they shall be with US III our
old age Green Bay Advocate.

went to his grave IN the belief that the
State degraded him, the late Governor
Barstow had drawn, and had in his pos
session, large sum Of money belonging
to the former! DR.. Percival died early
in Nav, 1886, and the Committee find,
in their own language that William. y.
Barstow, acting Governor, had then IN
his possession large amount of money
belonging to him, which in common JUS
tice, ought to have been paid over, and
that more than eight months after draw
ing from the Treasury the last item ST.
175, and more than SIX months after he
had ceased TO be Governor of the State,
by the decision of It's highest Judicial tri-
bunal, he repaid into the State Treasury
on the Both day of Sept, l555. the sum
Of 81 700 drawn ont by him on account
of Dr. Percival's salary. - Milwaukee
