A short WOoing.

One bright. June day, more than
a hundred years ago, Parson Mile
champ, with his pretty daughter OH
a pillion behind him, rode down a
pleasant Shropshire road on their
way to Powyscourt. The latter had
been for some time deeply engrossed
in her own thoughts, while her faith
er seemed gravely cogitating as he
guided his handsome bay horse over
a highway which certainly owed
little or nothing to surveyors or
commissioners. 1t was almost over
grown with grass and plentifully
sprinkled with stones.
But it was not the less pretty or
picturesque for that. The high
hedges, with the spreading trees
growing from out them, were in the
fullness of their midsummer beauty,
and shaded the wayfarers from the
sun. The pale briar rose waved its
delicate branches over them, and the
honey suckle made the air luscious
with its sweetness. There was a
chirping of birds, bleating of lambs,
and a buzzing of bees. Now and
again the voice of haymakers were
heard in the distance, and a Whit
from the bayfield, almost overpow-
cred the scent of the honey-suckle.
1t was perfect June day, and yet
Henrietta sighed.
Her father heard it, and (penitent
for his long silencel turned to look
at her.
My dear, he said, we seem but
poor company this morning.
Well, father, was wondering
whether this going as companion to
Lady Powys is for the best. Mother
thought fought to see a little more
life-our place being so quiet; but

A Nan who Saw a Mule Die.

saint it curious thing that no.
body ever sees a mule die?" remarked
an old teamster in Gumbert & Web
ber's saloon. ''No man living ever
saw a mule die, l s'pose?"
Thus remarked Mr.. Daniels, light
ing a fresh cigar: "In 1850 1 was
mining on the South Fork of the
Yuba, and it came my turn to cook
for my gang. We took turns each
week, you know. Well, was going
to show how economical 1 could run
the commissary. l went and bought
a peck of dried apples; they were all
stuck together in lump, but got 'em
jam'd into the pot, poured in some
water and started the fire. Present
ly few of 'em began to rise up to
the top of the pot, and so | skinned
'em off and put 'em in a pan. Pret-
ty soon some more bulged up, and l
SKINNED them off and put 'em in
pan. The first thing | knew, after l
had skinned that blasted pot awhile,
l had to get another pan, and then
another, and by that time I'd got four
heaped up pans full, dang my skin if
there wasn't more apples in the pans
than there was in the pot. That Is,
l thought so at the time. kept get
ting more pans, and buckets, and lard
cans, and all the time plumb fright
ened to death for fear some of the
BOYS would come in and see how ex-
travagant l was, for | had been blow
in on how cheap l could run
the mess. The blasted apples still
kept a comm out of the pot. put
some papers out on the floor and COW
cred 'em with fruit, and by JOve, the
place looked like a Santa Clara fruit
drying establishment,and the pot was
still bilin' full"
"What has that got to do with
mule dyin'?'
eWait a minute. Pm comm to
the mnle. Finally I got desperate
and dumped over twelve bushels of
the apples back of the cabin behind
Tree. III dUOuJ al uOuE L hSHi "A q
devil of a noise and ran out. What
do you suppose l found? Why,
four-hundred dollar mule kickin' in
the agonies of death. The apples
were all gone; the mule nearly so:
He was swelled up like balloon, and
the first thing knew he busted.
Pledge my word, gentlemen, he ex-
ploded like a giant powder blast, and
brought the whole camp to the place.
l kept still; they could not find the
mule, and it cost 'em $40 to advertise
a reward for him. About two weeks
afterward they caught couple of
Greasers hanging round, and they put
it up that they stole the mule, 50 they
hung 'em. l was there, but did not
say a word for fear the boys would
find out how extravagant l had run
the commissary."

thoughtful, said the parson, with a
CHEEKY laugh which belied his words.
Father often thinks of the trouble
. we are to him, said Henrietta; but
ne doesn't look as if he were much
the worse for it. Does he, sir?
In the natural course of things
some OF the daughters must marry,
remarked Tom, gravelY, still stroking
the horse. That may relieve you Of
some of the anxiety, sir.
1 have no wish to part with any of
them, friend, said the parson; and
Henrietta here has quite foresworn
matrimony.
Do you mean that seriously, mad
am? said Tom.
Well, sir, whas the answer with a
smile and blush, / think it is al
ways better to let well alone.
1t will be a poor lookout for us
young fellows if such ideas gain
ground, said Oliver. Surely, sir,
you do not approve of lovely young
ladies like your daughter holding
them?
am not sorry she holds them for
the present. Many a person mar
ries in haste to repent at leisure.
But, Henrietta, my dear, we must
be going. l wish you good day,
gentlemen, and success to your side.
Will you not wish US success, Mis-
tress Henrietta? asked Tom, earnest
ly, with hat in hand.
OF course | will, she answered,
raising her gray eyes rather shyly.
I hope you will win all before you.
The two young men watched the
riders till a turn in the road hid
them from sight, and then Tom did
not move until the sound of the
horses hoofs died away.
Tom, you're very thoughtful, said
Oliver at last, shaking his friends
shoulder. What all you?
Of course l am, said Tom, dreami-
ly, for there goes my wife.
Where there is a will there is a
way, says the proverb, and Tom GER
tainIy found the way. In spite Of
her sound sense, in spite of her as
surances to her father, and her
grandmother's high opinion in two
months time Henrietta Millechamp
was wood and married and a."

Senator Patterson was absent but ,nd;cs-
tons we're sufficiently eloquent. that the
Democracy relied upon him, and that it
was not his fault that they were disap-
pointed. With Senator PattersOn's vote
in a full Senate, even with Mr.. Sharon
in his seat, the result diseloses a majority
Of one on the Democratic side, and if the
Republicans named continue to vote with
the Democracy, Republican supremacy in
Senate may be considered at an end. It
may well be understood that there was
some excitement in Washington.
Thursday was day Of some excitement.
The Senate by vote Of yeas 80, nays
81, refused to lay on the table the resolu-
ton Of Mr.. ThurmaR. to discharge the
Committee on Pri1 Is and Elections
from further consideration Of the ereden-
tials Of NJ. c. Butler as Senator from
South Carolina. Senator Davis, of nh-
nois, Conover and Patterson voted with
the Democrats in the negative.
Such spectacle Republican Senator
leaving his seat on the Republican side and
placing himself between the Democrats,
and before every roll-eall Hamburg Butler
would approach him to be sure that his al
ly was faithful, and Patterson was guarded
closely from any Republican interference
but ConoYer was allowed to roam at will.
At the earnest solicitation of the Republi-
cans he allowed two roI-cslls to pass with
out answering his name He and Pstter-
son will vote with the Democrats on ev-
cry proposition involving Buffers inter-
est.
A very urgent appeal was telegraphsd to
Senator Sharon to hasten to Washington,
and was signed by Conkling, Edmunds,
Howe and several others.
A pOstponement of the evil day was Sc
cured by the casting vote Of Vice Presi-
dent Wheeler. On the motion of Mr.. Ed
munds to adjourn until Monday, there
was tie vote-S1 to 81. Thersupon the
Vice President cast his vote in the affirm
stive, and the Senate adjourned until
Monday.

President Hayes's Policy, was the

let of 30 pages. 1t is very scholarly sf.

erous, liberal and comprehensive; and if
not statesman-like, at least breathing the
spirit of craftsmanship and true patriot
ism. They ineuleate a wholesome spirit,
the dissemination of which, will have q
salutOry effect upon the body polite.

The heavy import tax levied on refined
oil, by France, is evidence of shrewdness
and business taet-fdelity to her own in
terests. Crude oil on the other hand is du-
ty free. The result is, that oil refneries
have sprung up all over France; and du-
ring the past six months the exports Of
crude petroleum from this country to
France has increased very largely, until
now they are greater than to any other
country. Not only does France refine oil
for her own consumption, but she supplies
Spain, Italy and Portugal cheaper than
America can. This the French refners
can do, they say, because fuel and labor
are cheaper than here, and French chem
lists have discovered cheap means of deo-
dorizing and purifying which is not yet
known or practieed in this country.

| ORPHANS HOME CHRISTMAS APOLOGY
| When we wrote the notice which appeared
in our last issue we were not informed as to
the full extent of the donations. We now
make the greatest possible apology and al
though one day late, cheerfully make amends.
Through W. r. Chamberlain, $50 was sent
from Reno. A box of books from Dayton
through Mr.. Briggs, and 500 worth of books
from Virginia Lodge ]. O. O. F.. This is all
we have been informed of, but we wish to re-
mark, that if there are any other contribu-
tions we will publish the thanks of the chill
dren and officers with the greatest pleasure
Gentlemen all, thanks, and, next year, do it
some more.
A GENTLEMEN's CLUE Several of the
most prominent young gentlemen in this city
have taken the formation of a gentlemen's
club under advisement If the outlook proves
at all encouraging an organization will soon
be effected The club is to be composed of
gentlemen whose standing in the community
will give it character.
AU FAIr.-The last reception of this club
for this year, will be held at Theater Hall
this evening. No full dress, but neverthe-
less the elegance, beauty, talent and wealth
of the city will be represented there.
Mr.. Charles Archer, the accomplished Or
ganist of the. Hibernica combination visited
our sanctum yesterday. He is an artist and
a very genial gentleman

CHRISTMAS TREE.
IN MCCLELLAN'S STUDIO.

There are two places within the town
limits of Carson which are not sufficiently APP
rreciated at home or abroad. One is Charley
Friends observatory and weather-shop; and
the other is Mr.. C. B. McClellan's studio
The former has been fully described in the
columns OF the MORNING APPEAL; the latter
is fit subject Of more extended mention
than we have space to bcstow upon it. We
took a look yesterday at what Dir. Nc
CIellan is doing. He seems to be very busy,
There are several pictures on his easel Of very
great promise, and two or three which may
be regarded as finished which are of a very
high order of>nerit. Among the unfinished
pictures is one large one Of a little boy-a
full length Behind the boy is very pleas
ing background representing d landscape
with a path, bit of water, and some blue
mountains in the far distance. Beside the
boys figure, which shows some excellent
painting and drawing, is the best picture Of a
little black-and-tan terrier we have seen. A
portrait Of little girl, life size, is admirably
done. The child is beautiful one, and the
picture viii be very decided acquisition to
the person for whom it is intended, A por-
trait Of Mr.. DoH Shane, the present pro-
prietor of the old Magee saloon, is next to
perfect in its lines and tints. A likeness of
DR.. White, representing the head and bust,
is very striking One can hardly conceive of
a more perfect portrait. Here there is an
artist with whose works this community
