G. ALEGANY COUNTY, MARYLAND SATURDAY, APRIL 1875

as people feel but once in lifetime, and
without knowing for what reason, they
instnctively glanced up the railroad-track.
Tho train WAS smashing down tho rails
at terrific speed. Tho whistle shrieked
again. Directly il the path of the engine
lay huge rock, which had rolled down the
cmbankment.
The next instant the pilot of the loco
motive struck it. the train jumped from the
line and zigzaggod o little way further,
there was Il terrible crash. the cars crowded
together, forming chaotic mass, cries and
shricks of agony went up, and for tho first
time IN its history thero had happened an
accident on the A. Railroad.
John Mortimer hurried quickly to the
scene. From a cloud of steam and debris,
where lay the shattered locomotive, a hu-
man being emcrgcd-a man whose head
had boiled upon his shoulders while he was
yet alive!
1t was the engineer, hideously scalded,
frantic with agony, but, unhappily for him,
not dead.
Others crawled from the wreck. Those
who could, set to work instantly to rescue
such as were beyond the power Of helping
themselves. Some still brcathcd, but near
ly all scmblance to humanity WAS crushed
out of them.
Among the rest a man was pulled from
beneath the ruins Of the smoking-car, and
through his side 4 huge splinter had been
driven like an arrow. It. was Lionel Chcl-
mont.
Mr.. Chclmont was taken to Chestnut
Farm, and he recovered consciousness
Nellie, distracted with grief was at his
bedside.
His first words were;
Send for my wife,
They thought him delirious, but it was
not so. In this, his last hour, he told the
truth, that he was 4 married .nan. He I'M
plorcd Nellie to forgive him.
81 loved and would have betrayed you
my poor girl, villain that VAS" he gasp
ed; "but | am ftIy punished. Say that
you forgive me, Nellie
He died with that unanswered prayer on
his lips. Next day his beautiful young
wife came, and there could be no further
doubt She told the history of her own
unhappness-how heaven had bestowed
upon Lionel Che!mont every gis. but that
of a strong moral nature, and how that one
defect blasted every blessing.
1t WAS long mystery how the rock had
come to fail on the railway track, and never
till he grew to manhood did Frank Tyrrcl
reveal the truth-thtt in thoughtless mis-
chief of childhood he himself had con-
trived to loosen and hurl it there that fatal
| afternoon when his sister had so inpatient
ly longed for n chan, ,c--eycn for some
horrible accident.
Nellie nature was Transformed. The
dreadful escape she had made WAS u lesson
never to be forgotten.
"Old friends,' she sighed, cold place.
and old things arc the hr8', ait. All
and she married faithful Joan 4!oyr.urr.
Never once since that event has 81
wished for chang.

Moss Pictures.

Scores of pretty and ine- pensive arti-
cles can be made with ferns, moss, sea-
shells, etc, which serve pleasantly to re-
mind one of vacation rambles. / will
describe few of them, After making
these attempts successfully, new and
beautiful designs will readily present
themselves. A picture bangs in one
corner of my sitting room that is much
admired. The foundation is simply a
thread-box, with wooden sides and a
pasteboard bottom. The inside parti-
lions are removed and lining of Bris-
tol-board carefully gummed in. The
rest Of the articles are fastened to the
pasteboard, with few stitches of the
same color as the material used. Some
delicate pressed ferns, of the maiden
hair variety (andiant'm) are placed on
the bottom, care being taken that every
leaf lies in natural position A little
below, and covering the fern-stems, i. a
branch of fine coral. A large and rich
ly covered ;scollop-sholl is placed at its
base Over all and dropping about the
shell delicate mist of feathery grass
and sea-moss is arranged. Here and
there, to give points Of color, scarlet
West India beans and tiny tinted shells
are gummed. Near the centre. and
poised as though just alighting, are two
gorgeous gold aud black butterflies
Finished with a glass and narrow frame
of gilt moulding, the cost is about dol
lar, while its natural grace and simplicity
give more satisfaction than many a
costly picture would do. Another
pretty design is cross, formed Of a
black walnut shaving or piece of birch
bark. The foot of the cross is imoed
ded in a green bank of wood moss, and
a convolvus is made TO Chamber to the
verv top. The vine is bit Of trailing
moss, with each tiny leaict picked out
with pin, after wctting in water for
some time. The blossoms consist of
the little cups found on the Gchen,
which grows on rocks and old fences,
by the way; the eolors are very fine,
being scarlet, lavender, white, and rarely
yellow. A rustic bridge made of twigs,
ruined castle of bark an archway COW
cred with vines, cluster Of rocks, or
an old stump, are all i,ieas that you can
elahorat and arry out at your leis-

as that which beams from the fair ewes Of
pictured Msdonas.
The woman disappeared, and her baby
with ber, as quietly as she had come.
The good kents never saw her again, but
they knew that she reached Ter tribe in
safety, for she sent back by every oppor-
sunity some little token of graiitude-moc-
casins or plait of dried buffalo meat, a
bag of sweet corn or hazel-uut kernels.
They hear, too, of the boy for whom such
@ wonderful love had been displayed, that
he grew into a strong handsoms ''young
brave" wise in council, skilled in the
chase and famed for deeds of blood and
daring.
1t WAS late in the spring when "Mon.
seer Pierre" came into the garrison. lie
sought the major hastily, and the good old
people saw that he was trembling with ca
gerness ana anxiety. "And the boy,
major?" he said after the first greeting.
1.-The boys all right" answered the
major.
don't bring him yet, Mrs. Kent: I'll
just fetch in my saddle bags. picked mp
few traps that the young rascal may like:
he don't know much about me, you see."
He presently come back smiling with his
arms full of packages, cut of which were
bursting tin soldiers, trumpets ard painted
candies. Children are like their elders
not above a bribe, eh, maior?'
Pierre, said the major, and stopped
Pierre
We'll, man, what's the matter? Speak It
out! The boys in bed suppose, and you
don want to wake him.
The boy has gone
Gone! Where? You let him go?'
4 did,.
His mother, supposet
Yes; she came for him. A mother has
the best right to her baby, Pierre"
Because, added Mrs. Kent, trying to
help her husband tbrough--because she has
the most love-.
'Ah, madame said the man in broken
voice, i too--But what matter? Sacrer
He dashed the toys to the floor and ground
them under his foot. You're all the same,
you women!'
"Thank God, we are!" cried Mrs. Kent
with more heat than devotion.
But her resenttul words were not needed
Their guest struck off the majors detaining
hand, mounted bis horse and rode away, to
come no more to his old friends house.
Baptiste and bis mother haye long since
gone to the happy hunting grounds of their
fathers. Pierre and the ma or and his wife
have likewise passed away, for all this is
an old story, though now for the first time
told. 1 found it in little yellow book
musty with age, the major ulary. Tic
lesson is obvious. But Mrs. Kent, with
the feminine proneness to emphasize a
moral, had written at the end, in cramp-
ed, old fashioned hand, these words: It's
my opinion-and I've seen enough of them
to knOw-it's my opinion that the Indians
the women anyhow-are not such bad
lot after all. Everything they touch doesn't
turn to blood. They have feeling pretty
much like the rest Of Gods people, and if
they were given as good chance and as
fair a start in the world, and if we only
| knew how to put our finger on the soft spot
in their hearts, they would be most as hu-
man and reasonable as white people,

This is the chief cause of absentmind-
edness. The thoughts are suffered to
linger about some favorite topic or to wan
der aimlessly, and of course the matter
in the hand cannot be thoroughly perfor-
med. If We cannot or do not direct our
whole attention to the object on which
we are engaged, and Danish all others, we
cannot do justice to it or to our own pow
ers- 1t is the mixing up of different
things and the confusion Of mind thus
created, that are largely responsible for
much of the inferior work in the world,
ard many of its failures ana disappoint-

Poetry.
LITTLE WILLIE.

Poor little Willie
With his many pretty wiles;
Worlds of wisdom in his looks,
And quaint. quiet smiles:
Hair of amber. touched with
Gold of Heaven so brave;
AL lying darkly hid
In workhouse Grave.
You remember little Willie:
Fair and funny fellow he
Sprang like a lilly.
From the dirt of poverty,
Poor little Willie,
Not friend was nigh,
When. from the cold world,
He crouched down 10 die.
In the dav he wandered foodlesa.
Little Willie cried for bread;
In the night we wandered homeless,
Little Willie cried for bed,
Parted at the work house door.
Not word he said:
All. so tired was poor Willie.
And SO sweetly slept the dead.
Twas in the dead OF winter.
We laid him in tn earth:
The world brought in the New Year,
On a tide of mirth.
But. for lost little Willie,
Not A tear we crave:
Cold and Hunger cannot wake him,
In his Work house Grave.
We thought him beautiful,
Felt it hard TO part;
WE loved him dutifnl;
Down. down. poor heart!
The storms they mav heat:
The winter winds may rave;
Little Willie feels not.
In his Work house Grave.
No room for l;ttle Willie:
In the world he had no part:
On him stared the Gorgon-eye.
Through which looks looks no heart,
Come to me, said Heaven:
And, if Heaven will save,
Little matter though the door
Be Work house Grave,
