steps farther and he would have found
the fireside he was dreaming Of.
The jokers had been 1T the house per
haps half An hour, when some one at the
window announced Lawrence's arrival {:
but it proved to be only his horse, which.
to do the party justice, they had Left
But the animal had somehow got loose.
and here he was.
ooh, well, he'll only get a little more
exercise than he bargained for" some
one said and all tried to shake of a
vague uneasiness that would creep over
them.
Carr Wilson stole to the porch, and
coming back with an awfully white face,
showed them the thermometer which
she had hung outside little before.
Not long after, she put on her cloak
and hood, and slipped out without any
one seeing her. Carr Wilson never un-
dertOOk to tell where she rode to that
night. 1t was q marvel and more that
she did not get lost and frozen. But she
burst in upon the merry-makers after q
while, with:
"Come out here. some of you, and
bring him in. He's past bringing him
self.0
There was house full Of CHASTITY faces
that night, and some tear shedding be-
fore morning came.
Ned Burden never left LaWrence's
side till he could speak-it was for a long
time doubtful ifhe ever woodland then
he went out to Rhoda Tyson, and told
her to thank God he wasn't a murderer
II was mad rs Cain was, under all my
laugh" he said.
Montgomery Lawrence lay ill at Fa-
Their Days some time, and the penitent
jokers getting better acquainted with
him, voted him "a first-rate fellow under
all his starch"
Carr Wilson went over one day to see
him, and happening to be alone with
him, a minute, Lawrence said:
"The last thing / remember, Carr, I
thought your arms were round my neck,
such soft, warm, loving arms-and they
say you found me. Carr, dear, won't
you make my dream true"'
He didn't laugh or look saucy; but
when she hesitated, he whispered, "Dear
Carr" and looked so pale-faced and dis
consulate with apprehension, that she
bent till her lips almost touched his
cheek saying, softly, ''Dear Montgome-
ry."-N. Y. Dispatch.

quiry and report upon the proceedings
of the day. These gentlemen left town
convinced that there was no necessity
for having military present during tho
election, and the use made of them was
altogether unnecessary and unwarrant-
able.
We trust when the "home veterans"
make their second attempt at handling
military, they will know their business
better, and acquit themselves with more
credit. The unmanliness of their charge
upon our peaceable and unoffending cit
liens was only equalled by their chagrin
and modification when they were SO
successfully flanked, that they were
obliged to surrender the prisoners SO
CALAMITY captured.
