that moment. of fate which was close
at hand. Another blow, and the bar
parted and then the door came down
with a crash But mingling with it
was another sound that sent thrill
of hope to the. hearts filled with des-
pair. This was the report of a couple
OF rifles in union, and two of the saw
ages went down to the dust. In .he
very moment of their triumph, death
had called fordhem.
The other two that composed the
party sprang into the cabin with up
lifted tomahawks, and one of them
caught Susan by her long, luxuriant
hair. & Ii oment more, and the blow
would have. descended but at the
self same instant, Siias Herd himself
dartcd into the cabin, and with the
breach of his rifle dashed the savage
to the earth. His companion-one
of the the cettiers who had returned
with him to aid him few days at his
clearing engaged the other, who was
paying his attention to the old dame ;
and had it not been for his timely aid
in despatching him, the warming would

They were. safe now and when the
bodies of the savages Had been east
out, ard the door once more righted
into its place, Susan told her husband
of the warning they had received, and
which had so near come to a fullill-
ment.
SiIas said nothing; but stopping to
the spot where his tfocs was hanging,
he took from pocket thereof a bird
of gay piumage, and held it toward
her. e-
In fclling q tree this morning, Su-
san, I killed this bird, and thinking
that the children might like.its .eath-
ers, brought it IN for them at noon,
but forgot to take it from my pocket.
The blood, Of course, came from that,
for you see that it has. been bleeding
from the bill This, Susan, is ali

Susan was convinced, but the old
dame shook her. head. Her faith in
them was as firm as ever. 81"

Vol XIV Ashland Ohio, Wednesday Morning

She nursed me true and tender, and
stuck to me day and night.
And if ever house was tidy, and ever
! kitchen clean,
Her house and kitchen was tidy as any
L ever seen;
And / don't complain of Betsey or any
of her acts, !
Exceptin' when we've quarreled and
told each other facts n
So draw up the paper, lawyer; and
I'll go home t,-night,
And read the agreement to her and
see if its ali right r
And then in the mornin' I'll sci. to a
tradin' man 1 know s.
And kiss Che child that was left to US,
and out in the world I'll go.
And one thing put in the paper, that
first to me didn't occur
That when Pm dead at last she shall
bring me back to her
And lay me Under the naples l plant
. cd years ago 3.
When she and 1 was happy, before we
quarrepd SO.
And when she dies, wish that she
would be laid by me;
And lyin' together in silence, perhaps
we will agree
And if ever we meet in heaven, L
wouldn't think it queer, ~
five loved each other the better be,
cause we quarreled here.

ere. Egotism must have always beel
prominent, but it was the egotism o
IDEAS, the worship Of an ideal stand
ard of lofty principles which he bat
created within, the worship of self il
the abstract. But now, in the yeal
1871, the supreme greatness was al
most within his grasp; he might be-
come the founder of. the republic oil
his dreams, establish the ido!ized
! princi pies Of Rousseau, be the creator
: of new order Of things, the great
.philanthropist of all ages. lie had
been brought into collision with every
phase of greatness-greatness of soul,
OF intellect and of station; conscious
inferiority humiliated him, and in such
a mind envy grew in proportion to
humiliation.
The growth of egotism was natu-
raj consequence to that of other pas
sions. Theugh still believer in the
principle of the abolition of capital
punishment-for this strange being
never forSook principle once form ed
that principle was dwarfed into. in
significance beside the mightier ones
that now burned within his mind,
filing him with a wild fanaticism,
fixing his eye aiar off upon the future,
binding him to the present, and hur-
rying him on with the resistiess fury
of a demoniac. Sweep away King,
sweep away Queen, MOBILES, every
enemy, every rival of Macmillan
Robespierre! Let every stone of
Paris stream with blood ;. pile. up
corpses until they crimson the face OF
the heavens; decimate the world, SO
that the great Ego may triumph
Then for the millennium, the reign of
peace, equality, liberty, fraternity,
eternal love aud goodfeliow-ship-no
more crime, no more blood-spilling!
!, But this gigantic scheme grew in
his mind only by degrees. The cow
ardice of his nature wenld have made
him shrink appalled,, ,reven on the eve
of its realization at the vision Of the
Reign of Terror. With the short
sightedness Of all great criminals, lie
thought he could stay his hand at any
moment. The King removed the
mobiles swept away; and the bloody
work was done. How small Il sacrifice
for go grand a result! But it was the
old fable OF tho Hydra, in this case
multiplied hundred fold, Tor, for
every head icut off, two sprang up in
its place, which doubled and quadru-
pied until the victims had to be con-
dcmned in patches of fifty and sixty
at time, until canals of blood ran
through the streets-until he was
heard to cry in his solitude, nothing
but blood-how much more-when
will it end?' But it was. not tue cry
of humanity-of that he possessed not
n particle; human suffering touched
him not at ALTO that he is utterly
calIous Amid all the frightful butch
cry that he lived through, he never
once raised his voice to save one hu-
man life. There is an anecdote told
Of him which will better exemplify
his nature than pages Of description.
A friend with whom he was most
intimate, and who WAS sincerely at
tached to him, begged him to save the
life Of a certain prisoner who was or
dered t'of to execution. "At what
hour is he to suffer?" asked Robes

Doing Good Under Difficulties.

bong good under difficulties is thus
Illustrated in the experience OF mis-
sionary of the American Sunday School
Union in Missouri:
at the first settlement | came to, |
found that there had never been Sun
day-school in that region, and the pco--
Die could hardly understand what 1
wanted. One had meyer seen Sunday
school, and thought there must he some
trick about it. Having somc books
with nc proposed to Give him one
'No, sir, don't want ii; can't afford it;
for know i'll take it, thar'll be some
sort of officer artcr taxes on it, wrote
ION the tly-lcaf, NO taxes to be collected
ON this book, and then he consented to
take it.
Y "To ascertain The condition of tho set
Element, asked a woman, "lS society

don't know him myself, but never heard

This resembles the answer that anoth-
sCr missionary OF the society, exploring

lwiic Of II hunter, ut whose cabin he call
fcd: "Alc there any Prcsbytorians III

Y An old man in Kentucky told tho
missionary: "I'm strong against sun
tlay-schoos, because it is wrong to bias
the minds of children"
Another missionary of the society il

How TO Speak 10 Children.

The usual way Of managing Chill
drcn is by corporal punishment, de-
privation of some desired luxury or
favor, or by rewards addressed to
the senses, and by words alone,
There is another means Of govern
mcnt, the power and importance of
which are seldom regarded. We re-
fer to the human voice. BY its tone
animals are governed; horses, cattle,
dogs, even cats, arc controlled by its
power and influence. A few words
uttered in soft tone arc found to
possess a magic influence and harsh,
cross tones, although the words may
not be their nature, rasp the mind
and heart Of the nearer. A blow
may be inflicted on q child accom-
panied with words so uttered as ell
tircly TO countcract its effect; or the
parent may use language during the
correction of his child, not objection
able in itself, yet spoken in such tones
that the influence of the punishment
is utterly defeated.
The baby in the cradle recognizes
the power of the voice. If harshly
spoken to, its little lips will quiver
and tears will flow. 1t cannot dis
Germ the meaning Of the words that
alo uttered, but its heart is touched
and hurt by the tones of the voice.
Many persons laugh at the so-Callcd
" baby talk" but the little one jumps
and crows when it hears the low, soft
tones and words. Is this influence
confined to the cradle? No, indeed
every age feels it, recognizes it, and
it docs not cease willie the child re-
mains at home.
Docs your boy grow rude i'll man
ncr and boistcrOus in speech? Then
speak to him gcntly-rcprimand him
in tender TOMS, with loving words
and carcss. She who speaks to her
son harshly docs but give to his bchav-
iorthG sanction Other example, and
pours oil on the already flaming pas
sion and temper,
When cares Opprcss and duties
crowd us we arc all liable to utter
hasty words; perhaps threats arc cN-
pressed in loud, irritating tones. DO
they allay the passions Of the child,
already at a white heart? No, they
increase them. Every frctful express
sion you utter but aWakcns in him
the same spirit which produced ii.
