Hit or Miss.

Among the members of one of our old
est Methodist churches was good old
brother named Hartwell, who manifested
his appreciation of the points of the SER
mon by shouting out "Amen," "Praise
the Lord" &c. Being an ignorant man,
very often they came in at the wrong time
On one occasion, as minister was exhort-
ing his hearers to repentance, fixing his
eye on a group of seemingly Indifferent
young men, he exclaimed
"Young men, you are going down to
perdition ~
The voice of the excited minister arous-
ed our good brother, and he shouted
"Amen so be it Praise the Lord %
After that the meeting was failure. At
the close of the service the pastor admon-
ished him to be more careful in the future,
and our good brother for awhile--though
he seemed to suffer torment-kept still, till
one evening, carried away by the fervor of
the meeting, he could no longer contain
himself; but jumping up he shouted
"Amen, brother--hit or miss, Amenp'

change his mind. He also shouted out once,
hoping to bring the Confederate picket
down upon us, but he suddenly abandoned
the idea, knowing that / would shoot him
rather than let him escape. Half an hour
after, had them both at the picket, and
long enough before daybrealS, they were
behind the bars of the old Capitol. I was as
quiet as possible in taking them there, but in
some way, the news of the arrest got
abroad, and the next morning when made
an official call at Payson's cafe and at my
landlady's, both places were closed, the in
mates gone, and never heard of them
afterwards.
AS TO Stevens, Elliott and Green, there
was an abundance of proofto convict them.
Green was kept in prison few months and
then released, but what became of the
others do not know. Perhaps they were
hung-it would have been nothing strange,
considering the circumstances.-Bdl

Selling Children.

The Tidioute Journal tells story about
a woman from Triumph going over to Fa-
gundas and selling her own child. 1t says,
the woman came from Trinmph to Fagun-
das on foot bearing in her arms lovely
babe ten or fifteen days old. She offered to
sell the babe for money to whomsoever
wished to buy. AT last person taking a
pity on the poor mother, who was in need
of money and in want, offered to take the
babe. The purchaser paid the mother ten
dollars, and the parties went before a jus
tice of the peace, and the bargain was made
as sure as law and signatures could make it,.
The mother then walked back to Triumph.
Here she told her tale, and a person told
her he would pay $25 for the babe. Back
to Fagundas the women walked, but the
purchaser declined to give it up. In vain
were protestations; the bargain had been
legally made, and the babe sold, and so the
mother walked to Triumph withoutit.
