A MOTHER,s sTRATEGEM.

In June, 1869, the ship Wdnderer left
the settlements of Monrovia, on the
coast of Liberia in Africa, having on
board among her passengers, bound
home to England, Mr.. Benton, young
missionary, and hls beautiful wife Helen,
with their child-a little girl three years
old.
For three weeks the vessel encounter
ed succession of head winds and vio-
lent squalls, which, driving her towards
land, at length compelled her captain to
anchor in small bay Oh the coast of
Morocco. 1t was a beautiful spot, but
few hundred yards from one of the
half detached peaks of the Atlas noun
tains.
Gazing inland, the passengers beheld
wealth of verdure, with tall trees and
climbing plants and flowers of variegated
hue-many of the latter ascending to
the tops OF the rocky hills, and hanging
down in long, graceful festoons over
the valleys between.
In the afternoon,t the gale having abat-
ed, the captain lowered boat to make
soundings i'll the bay.
IL would so like to take little Clara
ashore" said Helen to her husband.
"You know she has been teasing us all
day for some of those pretty flowers" ="
'"Very well; if the captain will take
the trouble toput us ashore, we will go,"
said Benton.
The captain having readily given his
consent, the two passengers were soon
landed on the beach.
'Don't go far away, sir" said the
skipper, as he showed off again.
But little Clara, breaking from her pa
rents, now ran up one of the rocky ele-
vations, the sides of which were covered
with shrubbery of the most attractive
color. .-
swat for me, George" said Helen tC
her husband, "and 1 will bring he
back" ....
The height the child was ascending
not being very steep, she had proceeded
about hundred yards ere her mother
reached her. The naked arms and
shoulders of the little one were by TIM
time scratched in several places from
, contact with the briars. Mrs. Benton
therefore, dipping her handkerchief in
spring tricklng down rock, was apply
, ing it to the bleeding parts. when sh
was startled by roar, deep and pro
longed, like rumbling thunder, appa
rently emerging from the very heart o
the mountain, and shaking it to its cen
ter.
Terrified, she turned to behold an awfu
: spectacle-the huge, bristling head, an'
i round, glaring eyes of that most terrlbl
of wild beasts-an African lion!
e First the head, and then the. supple
= tawny body, appeared from the shrub
!. bery, the tail whisking furiously to an
: fro, the name standing on end, the fier
!. tongue and sharp fangs visible, as sec
ond roar came booming from the cavern
= Gus throat.
"Just Heaven!" was all the poor lad
! could gasp, as, with mothers instine
G she snatched the child to her breast.
t Mr.. Benton now saw her danger. ID

savagely.
AS might be expected, we had a late
breakfast next morning. Matte pre-

he was inclined to carry it further and

A nice bit of high-toned romance oc-
CURED in st. Louis, quite in the Enoch
Arden line, only more so. An Iowa man
of family fell into the clutches of the
law and was sent to the penitentiary.
A systematic friend assisted bis wife
to get a divorce, and then married her.
In course of time husband No. escaped
from prison, sought, and found the OBJ
durate object to his affection, and per-
suaded her elope with him. They
fled to st. Louis with about thousand
dollars, worth of property belonging to
husband No. 2, who has pursued and dis
covered them in the wicked city. The
novelist would make him kill both par
ties, but he has done nothing of the sort.
He has simply brought repleyin suit
to recover his property, and says he
dosen't care a fig about the woman if he
can get his ducats back.

A visit 90 Monticello.

A correspondent of the Chicago 7fi6-
uRe writes.
1t has now been two years since Wis
tied Monticello, and, having some ac-
quaintances who were anxious to make
an excursion, we were driven to the top
of the mountain, over roads which in
any other State of the Union, would be
deemed impossible, Part of the way
was actually terraced over rocks which
the wheels ascended sometimes foot
high vertically. Among the pleasant
creeks almost deep enough to lift thecar-
riage up and float it. Jefferson's tomb
was in the same disfgured condition
which have fully described in previ-
GUS letters and the old mansion at the
top of the hill was in even worse repair,
the roof rotton and falling off, old hats
stuck in the windows, farm gear over the
floor, and the smell of must, and mold,
and rain, and desertion all over that

HERALD ORDINASCEs.-In these
degenerate days of toll and trouble,
with the thermometer indicating from
zero to forty miles below Cairo ; when
we are compelled to be editor, compos-
itor, devil, pressman, collector, steal

expected that our paper should sport
a profusion of ''red-hot.' spicy local
items when they never transpire
Now we have a word of fault to find
with the public.
Preachers should always hand us
marriage notices and dollar, and on
no account perform the holy ceremony
until the candidate for matrimonial
honors has subscribed and paid for
this paper for one year. These instruc-
tons apply also to Justices Of the
Peace.
Physicians should inform us of acct
dents, deaths and births, and should
under no circumstances allow any baby
to be born unless its father is paying
subscriber to the Augusta Heratd-
terms So per annup, invariably in adj
vance.
Everybody who arrives in town Or
goes away should be promptly reported
to these headquarters. Every sale or
trade in real estate, or any other trans
action of any interest, if reported to
ms would materially aid us in making
the paper readable. We want CORES
pondence from all parts of the county,
not long, windy articles, but brief
and pithy ones, containing all the Cos
sip of the ncighborhood that is proper
for the public eye. Give us the plain
facts and we will pnt them in shape.
And now don't forget an occasional
payment of two almighty dollars :;
money is termed ''flthy lucre,' to be
sure, but people soon become accustom-
ed to dirty things, and having been
very c)eanly disposed for some time we
will assume all risk of being nauseated

trash.
