An Exquisite Story By LamartIne,

In the tribe Of Neggdeh there was
horse whose fame was spread far
and near and a Bedouin Of another
tribe, by name Daher, desired OK
tremely to possess it, Having offer
ed in vain for it his camoIs and his
whole wealth, he hit at length upon
the following device, by which he
hoped to gain the object Of his desire.
He resolved to stain his face with the
juice Of an herb, to cIothc himself in
rag5, to tie his legs and neck togeth-
er, so as to appear like lame beggar.
Thus equipped, he went to await for
Naber, the owner Of the horse, who
he knew was to pass that way. When
he saw Naber approaching on his
beautiful steed, he cried out in a weak
voice, " l am . poor stranger; for
three days | have been unable to
move from this spot to seek for food
| AM dying help me, and heaven will
reward you" The Bedouin kindly
offered to take him up on his horse
and cdrry him home; but the rogue
replied, 81 cannot rise ] have no
strength left " Naber touched with
pity, dismounted, led his horse to the
spot, and with great difficulty set the
seeming beggar on its back. But no
sooner did Daher feel himself in the
saddle than he set spurs TO the horse
and galloped off, calling ont as he did
so, {" 1t is I, Daher have got the
horse, and am off with it," Naber
called after him to stop and listen.
Certain of not being pursued, he turn
ed, and halted at a short distance from
Naber, who was armed with u spear.
" You have taken my horse" said the
latter, "Since heaven has wiIled it,
| wish you joy of it; but do con-
jure you never TO tell any one how
you obtained it," "And why not P"
said Daher. Because" said the
noble Arab, "another man might be
really i'll, and men might fear to help
him. You would DO the cause of
many refusing TO perform an act of
charity, for fear of being duped as |
have been" Struck with shame at
these words, Daher was silent for
moment, then springlng from the
horse, returned it to its owner, en-
bracing him. Naber made him ac-
company him to his tent, where they
spent few days together, and be.
came fast friends for life.

We have yet to learn whether Conover's
punishment for perjury was not procured ex-
pressly to put him out of the way because he
knew too much of what had been planned
and purposed. IL would be interesting to
know if Ashley, Holt, and Riddle we're sin
cere in their application for the pardon of
Conover, and If this very application was
not trap for the President. 1t could be said
by his enemies that he pardoned Conover from
fear of him; that he bought him off from
producing those terrible witnesses who were
to tell all the dreadful things they knew
about Mr.. Johnson's connection with the as
sassination scheme. We have Conover's side
of the story; now let us hear what his friends
and partners with whom he seems to have
quarrelled, say about it. There is a trite
adage about one class of people falling out
and another class gaining thereby. With the
statements of Ashley and Butler, as well as
Conover, the public may get real rather
than pretended revelation of the radical
wickedness" which, not long ago, threatened
to impeach the President as a conspirator
with assassins.
