here is another still longer link, an exchange

direction of Prof. Gatchell. The Kenosha

A Baokwoods Adventure.

A Virginia banker, who was the
chairman of a noted intideI club. was
once travelling on horseback TIN ough
Kentucky, having With him bank bills
to the amount Of over one million
dollars. When he came to a lonely
forest, where robberies and murders
were said to be frequent, lie was soon
lost through taking the wrong road.
The darkness OF night came quickly
over him; how to escape the threaten
ed danger he knew not I'm his alarm
he suddenly espied in the distance
dim light, and urging his horse on,
ward he at length came to a wretch>
ed looking cabin; he knocked at the
door, IT was opened by woman who
SAID her husband was out hunting,
but would shortly return, and she
was sure he would cheertuIly give
him shelter for the night
The gentleman tied his horse and
entered the cabin, but with feelings
that can better be imagined that de,
scribed.
There he was, with large sum of
money, and perhaps in tho Louise OF
one OF the robbers, whose names were
terror to the country.
In short time the man OF the house
returned. He had on deer skin
shirt, bear skin cap, seemed much
tatigned, and in no talllative mood.
All this BODIED the infidel no good
lie felt for his pistols in his pocket,
and placed them so as to be ready for
Immediate use.
The man asked the stranger to re-
tire to bed, but he declined, saying
he would sit by the fire all night
The man urged, but the.more he urg-
ed the more the infidel was alarmed
He felt sure that this was his last
night upon earth, but he determined
TO sell his life as dear as possible
His fears grew into perfect agony
What was to be done?
AT length the backwoodsman rose
and reaching to a wooden shelf, he
took down an old book, and said
"Well stranger, if you went 90 to
bed, | viii but 1t Is my custom al
ways to read Il chapter of Holy Scrip
ture before | go to bedw
What change did these words
produce. Alarm was at once re-
moved from the skeptic's mind
Though allowing himself an infdel,
he now had confidence in the Bible.
He felt safe. He felt that the man
who had Bible in his house, and read
it, bent his knees in prayer, was no
robber or murderer. He listened to
the simple prayer of the good man,
at once dismissed all his fears, and
lay down in that rude cabin, and
slept as calmly as he would under his
fathers roof.
From that light he ceased to re-
vile the good old Bible. He became
Il sincere christian, and often re
lated the story Of his eventful jour
,ney to prove the folly Of infdelity.

COOP TEMPLARs' ORGAN.-The re
suit Of the late strife on the subject
of a Good Templars' organ for this
state was vote of the Grand Lodge
to publish its own organ, when it
gets prepared for it. The Wisconsin
Chief, of Fort Atkinson, the pioneer
temperance organ of the state, is
about to be enlarged to double its
present size and printed weekly
We opine that the committee, which
has, we believe, the authority to do
so, will then extend the patronage of
the Grand Lodge, amounting to
about six hundred copies, to the
Chief. The first number of the en-
larged Chief is to appear on the first
Wednesday Of October.
