mostlo to the elder lady. You would have
fancied that he meant me to hear all
the talk with our pretty Miss Mary those
Young men are so Transparency cunning.
Well, we got down at length to the lit
tie country station, and here there was 4
humble carriage in waiting 10 drive us to
Jhe river side. We passed along through
the understanding fields. We drove
through the quaint old town. which was
all shining now in the light of the evening
sun We passed the church end got down
10 the bridge, aud there before Us, on the
other side OF the stream, stood the old
fashioned inn amid its trim plots of grass
and bushes.
did you ever see anything more beau
tiful ?" the elder lady says; and, indeed,
it would be difficult TO compose prettier
picture than we beheld at this moment
the solitary. quaint old building by the side
of the river, the smooth water rejecting
the dropping trees, the white line of the
weir. and behind all these some rich
meadows leading over to low rampant OF
hills, the thick woods on which were burn.
ing red in the sunset.
1t was, in truth, peaceful spot, and we
drove over the bridge, and Eround and
down to the inn. with something OF no
ton that here, for space, we should shut
out all the cares and stormy passions Of
the world, and dream ourselves back into
a condition of primeval' peace and inno-
cence. We got down from the carriage.
The solitary waiter was at the door to re-
ceiye us. We hoped that we should be
the only occupants of The famous old hos
tilry.
Just at this moment the face Of the
young gentleman who had come with us
was observed to change color, and amost
unchristian CLEAN of anger shot from his
eyes. Who was this blithe and buxom
gentleman, who, dressed in a fishing cos
tune OF gray, came gayly along the pas
sage, and seemed overwhelmed with
amazement and joy at seeing US?
"What ?n said he, "can it be possible !?
Bless my soul, now! What a fortunate
thingt But who could have dreamed Of
meeting you here, of all places. in this sim
full but delightful world ?"
Who, indeed 1t has been the lot of
the present writer to have been present at
dramatic performances in the capitals of
various countries, but he has never wit
messed a more beautiful piece of acting
than that which was performed by stout
and middle-aged gentleman on the thresh-
hold of an inn in Berkshire. We were
very nearly imposed on. For the moment,
it almost seemed real. But then our COM
mon sense came to the rescue and we
knew that this sly old dog had quietly
slipped down here and taking up his quar-
tiers in anticipation of our coming, while
the most we could hope for was that the
green and fertile plains of Berkshire might
not be stained with blood before the week
was out.

Half an Hour in q Mill-WhpeI.

The following account of the rescue
OF little girl from death, at Cape Tor
mentine, is given by paper published
in Hamilton, Ontario "About four
weeks ago little girl, some three years
old, daughter Of Mr. Allen, of Cape
Tormentine, wandered to her fathers
saw-mill. After a short time the father
missed her, but thought she had re-
turned home. It occurred to him to
look down into the mill-wheel, when he
noticed what he considered q piece of
stick protruding out of one of the
vents. The wheel is what is termed a
Parker wheel, and had at the time a
strong head of water on. The mill was
stopped, and Mr.. Allen proceeded to
the wheel. To his horror what he
thought was stick was his little daugh-
ter's legs, much discolored, black and
blue. The agony of the parent was in
tense at the discovery. The sight, he
says, will never he erased from his
memory; and this, with the fact that
through the dreadful stiffness Of
the gurgling and black waters, and the
excitement of hope, the child was heard
to moan, added to his emotion. Meas
ures was taken to relieve what was GER
tainly thought to be lifeless child.
An aperture was made by the removal
of a stave from off the wheel, when the
little girl was taken out, terribly bruised
about the body and lower extremities.
She was carefully rubbed, and as soon
as possible warm Appliances had and
the girl through the mercy of Divine
Providence, is now doing well. What
makes the escape the more extraor-
binary is the fact of her having first
passed through and been sucked under
what is termed the fume, distance of
some 35 feet, then drawn into the wheel
and whirled around for a period Of
twenty minutes-for about that time
previous she was prattling in her fathers
presence"

Why a Flag Was Not Saved.

An incident of the closing days OF
the war Of the rebellion is thus told by
the Columbus (Ga.) Sun: "Not long
ago We read of an officer of the Third
Georgia Regiment, at the reunion of
Wright's Brigade at Union Point, pre-
senting to the meeting the bullet and
shell-riddled battle-fag of theregiment,
which at the surrunder of Lee he had
torn from the staff and concealed under
his shirt. A brave soldier of Columbus,
who entered the Georgia Grays, Of that
place. when not fifteen years of age, and
fought in the Western Army for four
long years, with scarcely furlough, at
tempted the same thing at Johnston's
surrender. We refer to Mr.. Andrew J.
Boland, IS true and gallant a soldier
as ever braved the terrors of battle.
When General Johnston took command
Of Hoods Army, after the disastrous
retreat from Tennessee, he commenced
it's reorganization, and our friend An
drew found himself Color Sergeant OF
the Second Georgia Battalion of Sharp
shooters, commanded by Lieut.. Col.
Whitley, the Radical Congressman, who
has swallowed the Civil Rights bill and
openly advocates it. In passing through
Augusta the ladies presented this bat
talon beautiful flag, and at the sur
render Sergeant Boland determined to
save it. It fell to his lot to give up five
battle flags. He surrendered only four,
keeping this flag to the last. Happen
ing to have ragged valise he put the
flag in it together with new suit Of
gray, and deposited them in the Colo.
ners wagon which an orderly was guard.
ing. Result was, when that night al
Salisbury, n. c., he went to don his
new suit, he found the flag, clothes and
all gone-stolen by gray back
