IN THE DARK.

In the dark in the dark the twilight Is gone,
And night hath descended on pinions of gloom;
Tho shadows arc all Of them merged into one,
And I'm standing alone in my quiet room.
Booking ont on the night through the window pan
Ia but pastimo sad, for the sky is drear
With cumulous clouds all telling of rain.
And the starr shine but dimly here and there.
Mid the storm clouds walketh the Northern Bear
And Arcturus glittereth family afar;
But now the grey heavens are darkening there
And all are hid save the Polar star.
In the dark in the dark how oft hath my soul
Been ohrouGsd in shadows of deepest glooml
AS thought would her woefu1lest volume unfold,
And I wept all alone in my qaiet room;
When hope failed to tighten my deep distress.
And tears to my woe could bring relief,
When the ftful gleamings Of happiness
Were all obscured by shadows of grief.
But though for my portion sad tears were given.
And joy with her bright wings would fee afar.
This truth for thy faith there IS Heaven.
Hath ever shone on. like tho Polar Star.

we're presided over by small, black looking
man, with black beard and mustache cut after the
fashion OF the Spanish muleteer, l looked as
nercely as could. This person appeared the very
impersonation OF 'the terribly awful and l con-
TESS to feeling OF satisfaction that 1t was daylight
and that l was the possessor Of q revolver when
met his whitening glances. 1t is even now matter
OF surprise that this terrible person did not cause
my death from fright; but the fates would have it
otherwise. AS I looked at him steadily, and,
natter myself, somewhat menacingly, this Don
whiskerandos turned white and green and know
not how many other colors. 1t was evident his
ferocity was rising to the extinguishng point, and
was thinking OF consulting my safety in flight
when the portentous person OF the British Vice
Consul doomed in sight.
VISIT TO THE GOVERNOR OF MANzANILLo.
This diversion gave me q momentary relief but
1t was OF short duration. An invitation to take

Informed me that the Governor was particularly
an xious TO see me- Don Whiskerandos was known
to the Consul, and joined the party without any in

ernor, who was waiting to receive US. What re-
ceptionl Senior Don Aristides de Santas, lieu
tenant colonel in the army and temporary Gov
ernor OF the town, is q person above the medium
height, and not at all ferocious In aspect. On
the contrary, being fair, with regular FEATURES,
he might claim to be rather good-looking, II he
were so inclined. On presenting myself to
this oficial he looked at me with lofty severity.
"Your name is James J. 0'Kelly newspaper cor
respondent" he said, In a tone OF voice that left
no doubt how the unfortunate OK. was regarded
by authority. Having confessed that was guilty
OF the name Of o'Kelly and newspaper correspond
entlsm, added for the Governors information that
had just arrived from the insurgent lines campo

replied the Spanish Aristides, drawing himself up
to his full height and motioning with bis hand in
the direction OF Corona. The aspect OF the Gov

OF Jupiter commanding the gods, and wiz always
be associated in my mind with the idea OF the

borhood. This news was withheld from me by
order, but leaked out bit by Bit My first Observe
ton that something unusual had happened was
founded on the temporary withdrawal OF the
regular soldiers from the tort, which was occupied
for one day by the volunteers. These gentry did
not fail to mark their little friendship for me in
every way In which they dared to manifest their
feelings 1t was, therefore, with something like
relief that saw myself again under the guardian
ship OF the regular soldiers, who, having buried
their dead comrades, came back to town to await
their turn to be slaughtered by the bullet or
wasted by disease. 1t is impossible not to
feel sympathy for these poor dupes, who
bleed and suffer for the exaggerated ambition OF
others. In the main they are good-hearted, simple
and stupid wonderfully obedient and passably
brave. 1t has always been puzzle to me why SO
many men whom nature intended only for minding
sheep should have the pretention to don soldiers
uniform, In which they appear as much out OF place
as would an ass In q lions hide. But human
nature is full Of contradictions, and those peo-
Pile for the most part, while liking the soldiers
Clothes dislike infinitely the hardshps and dangers
OF soldiers life.
MODERN COURT OF NoUIsITroN.
Ihad scarcely been treasured Tor my immediate
safety by the return OF the regular troops when an
incident occurred that threw me again into
the greatest uncertainty as to my proba-
Bile fate. On the evening OF the fourth
day OF my Incarceration I was preparing
to seek forgetfulness OF my troubles in sleep
when the cell door suddenly opened and the cor
porsl OF the guard ordered me, In peremptory
tone, ito pass this way" Twas already In dfssa-
bi,e, but, Notwithstanding, l obeyed the order OF
the corporal. On reaching the door perceived
that there were number OF officers waiting out
side. and not wishing to appear bare headed before
these gentry returned to my cell to seek my hat.
was then conducted into small room
adjacent to the one l occupied where
found three officers in full uniform and civilian
waiting to receive me. 1t was already dark, and
the room was lighted by a small lamp placed on
the table before one Of the officers, who appeared
10 perform the duties Of secretary. There was
something spiritual in the uncertain giimmerlng
OF that lamp. The assistants were half IN shadow,
and the scene full OF mystery and gloom. The
eject on my Imagination was terrific; all the
stories Of secret murders and asssssinatlons that

instant, day or night, free from the most minute
supervision.
NIuHT OF EXCITEMENT.
The night of my refusal to acknowledge the mill
tary court l was alarmed by the frightful noise
made by the soldiers after went to bed. Truly
the thought came to me that my last hour had
arrived, and In order to receive the expected nott
fcaton Of my execution with becoming dignity
got up and dressed myself The tramp Of soldiers,
the rattle OF grounding arms and the changing OF
swords on the paved court continued Tor long
time, during which suffered the most terrible sus-
pense No reply had come to my kilograms or let
tiers, though five days had passed, and
felt assured that II the news OF my arrest
had been communicated TO the British
Consul General or the representative
OF the HERALD In Havana that would not have
been left without some word. II was only natural
that my FIRST fears should return with renewed
force. The temptation to go to tho door to learn
the cause OF the unusual movement was very
great; but as was unwilling to give to my jaiers
the satisfaction OF Witnessing my anxiety lay
down on the bed to walt the result. There the idea
Of being shot, without the power OF communi-
eating with my friends slaughtered like sheep
without the power or the means Of resistance,
caused me to pass hours OF bitter anguish. How
cursed my foolish confidence In the honor and faith
OF spanish ofiicialsl would have given all pos
sessed in the world to be
A HUNDRED YARDS FROM THE SPANISH 0UTPosTs
WITH RIFLE IN MY HANDS.
This admit was not heroic, bat 1t was human,
and though risk destroying whatever reputation
for valor may have acquired, 1t is more honorable
to my mind to speak the truth than to build up
false reputation, which In after life would be to me
a source OF constant self-reproach. One OF the
least pleasurable subjects OF reflection Is military
execution, when one has reason to fear
that ne may be the central figure In the
picture That presents itself to the mind.
Next to being shot the least enjoyable
thing that l know is to imagine that
one may be subject for target practice; but this is
one OF those truths that can only be known to a
select lew who have the distinction to pass through
the experience and survive It, stu, when one
finds himself exposed to this risk although IL Is an
unpleasant subject-or, rather, because 1t Is So

POLICE CoURr-TWo cases made mp
the sum total of the business before the
Police Court yesterday morning.
James Bivens went to the house OF
his brother-in. law on Monday and made
some little disturbance. As it was
purely q family matter, Judge Rogers
permitted the charge to be withdrawn
on payment of the costs.
Jack Sullivan is a stranger in this
latitude and all unused to it's ways. On
Monday afternoon he came down Main
street, yelling and bowling like Co
mancbe Indian. Being too drunk to
maintain his equilibrium on cleared
pavements, his chances for standing up
on pavements as smooth as glass from
ice, were not good. When he got in
front OF Landfried's shoe store, down
he went. He bounced up like ball,
and bloody and muddy, he ran into the
shoe store, nor could Landfried keep
him out. He was fined S. and costs OF
fifteen days on the chain gang. AS he
had a choice, he took the fifteen days
in preference to paying the cash.

BUILDING PRosPEcTs.-The coming
building season promises to be q brisk
one, from all indications. We called at
the Office of S. NJ. Howard, architect,
and saw quite a number of designs for
residences, store buildings, churches,
&C., prepared for parties who intend
building this year. It's a pleasure to
know that Mr.. H. is receiving the en-"
couragement he justly deserves. His
designs, whenever executed fully, have
given satisfaction, his success lying, to
a great extent, in the fact that he does
not try experiments at the expense OF
his patrons, but resorts to expedlents In
the execution of his designs that are
reliable. Mr. H. has an able assistant
"a younger brother-who, as care
full, neat and artistic draughtsman, IS
difficult to excel. Success to them.
