, told him Of her fears and he hat
tried to- laugh them off as ldl'
wllims. She had prayed to hin
to stop the fatal career while h' '
had yet strength, but he had beer
offended because she should thlnk
that he would ever become &
drunkard. So Alice was afraid tt
speak all her fears. Yet she saw
with a clear eye all that was com
ing. She saw the broad road up
on which her beloved was travel
ing, and ber heart was aching
She knew even now want was
staring him in the face! 1t was
autumn and she had asked Nal
com for. money to buy warmer
clothes for herself and children:
and he had none to give her.-
Only a day before he had bought
him q bucket of flour instead of
Sending home barrel as he used
to do. He earned money, and
where was it? Alas. poor Alice
knew too we'll Malcoln's face, and
she saw that its manly beauty was
slowly but surely eating away
The large blue eyes were growing
dim, bleared and bloodshot, the
once fair cheeks were becoming
swollen and bloated, and the lips
locked dry and cracked. No won
der she knelt down by her bed
side and prayed.
It was low Saturday evening
and Malccm was going out. lie
was to meet some friends, and
Alice knew he was to meet them
at the tavern. He had worked
only three days the past week,
and he had the pay for those three
DAYS work in his pocket. That
money was needed at home, but
where would it be tomorrow?
"Malcom, Oh dc not wholly for
get your fond, loving Alice, when
you are gone!' But Malcolm did
not answer. He kissed her not as
he used to do, but had kissed her
merely because she had asked him
to--and then left his cottage. Al
ter he had gone Alice sat down
and wept. She could not help it.
Her darling boy crept by her side,
and placed his arms about her
neck. He asked no questions but
told her not to cry, His little lElltttl
mind seemed to have some idea OF
the coming of a calamity. ltmnst
have been vague, but it was clear
enough to prevent him from fore
ing the dread thoughts upon his
mother. Once more he asked her
not to cry, and then his own little
heart burst, and mother and child
wept together. This was another
drop in the poor wife's cup OF al
fiction. O! how palpable must
be the husbands danger, But she
could only 10 clasp her hands and
-prav. more fervently. And the
little boy, when his mother had
done praying, said, :" '''lA.l Amen. n
1t was a clear, cool evening, and
as Malcom Warren stepped out
into the street he seemed to shake
onfithe influence Of the dear place
ii, was leaving. But he, could
net wholly,do it, He could moi
drive from his mind the fearful
eountenance of his fond and tear
ful wife, nor could he forget the
look Of The earnest simple anguist
he had noticed on the face OF
his child. Yet he crushed the
thoughts that were thus spring
ing into his mind.o sPooh! saIt

town property Of rental value should be
reported. The amount of stock, owned
in this State, or OF any money or deposit,
is peculiarly within the knowledge of the
officers of the various corporations. Sec
retaries of railroad companies, cashiers
of banks, and the proper officers of all
other corporate bodies have the means,
and / doubt not the disposition, to fur
nish me the names of all rebel stock
holders and depositors, and the amount
of stock or deposit BY them owned. |
would suggest that all corporations in
this State take immediate steps to ascer-
tain who are the real otcReTs of their
unpaid bonds, and in all cases where it
may be clearly ascertained, that the same
are owned by rebels, the facts to be re-
ported to me.
The debtor is better advised as to the
loyalty of his creditor than stranger to
their transactions He who is indebted
te an armed rebel or one who has given
aid and comfort to the rebellion should
disclose the facts, in order that the
money, when paid, may go into the Ma
tional Treasury, for the support of the
Government, and not. into the hands of
him who would use it as means to de-
stroy it.. County officers and attorneys
know to great extent the character of
the land owners, Judgment and mortgage
creditors in their respective counties
trust they will be pleased to advise me
in reference to all such property owned
by rebels / believe every loyal man in
the State will not fail to promptly advise
me "of all the estate and property,
money, stocks, credits and effects with
in his knowledge, owned by those who are
attempting to destroy the government;
and in doing so he will render efficient
aid in the enforcement of the law. ]
would be pleased to have the press Of the
State, SO far as convenient, give publicity
to this request.
