Honesty Rewarded.

George and Harry worked in the same
shop; but as the working season was al
most over, and there would be little work
to do during the summer months, their
employer informed them, as they settled
up on Saturday evening, that he could
only give one of them work hereafter. He
was very sorry, he said but it was the
best he could do. He told them both to
come back on Monday morning, and that
he would then decide on the one he
wished to retain. So the young men re-
turned to their boarding house good
deal cast down; for work was scarce,
neither knew where he could obtain a
situation if he was the one to leave.
That evening as they counted over their
weeks wages, Harry said to his friend {:
"Mr. Wilson has paid me quarter of a
dollar too much.''
$50 he has me-" said George, as he
looked at mis-.
elbow could he have made the mis-
takc?" said Harry.
"Oh, he was very busy when six o'clock
came; and, handling so much money, he
was careless when he came to pay our
tritle," said George, as he stuffed his into
his pockctbook.
"Wcll,' said Harry, II am going to
stop as go to the postefficc and hand it
to him."
"You are wonderful particular about a
quarter" said George, what does he care
for that trif1e? Why, he would not come
to the door for it it he knew what you
wanted; and am sure you worked hard
enough to earn it''
But Harry called, and handed his en-
ployer the money, who thanked him fo1
returning it, and went in the house. Mr.
Wilson had paid each of them quartz,
more than their wages on purpose to test
their honesty.
So when Monday morning came, he
seemed to have no difficulty in determin
ing which one he would keep. He chose
Harry, and entrusted the shop to his care
for several months when he was away or
business, ard was so we'll pleased with
his management, that, when work com
menced in the fall, he gave him the pc
sition Of superintendent. Five years af
terward Harry was Mr.. Wilson's partner
and George worked in the same sho1
again, but as common laborcr.

W1sIfING TON EXCITED.
A Rumor that sherman and Matthews had
been Indicted In New Orleans.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-A flying rumor that
Sherman and Matthews had been indicted in
New Orleans this morning has created great
excitement this evening. 1t began this after
noon in despatch which Gen. Garfield received
announcing the fact. 1t threw Garfield into
funk. and he went around in great deal Of
nervous excitement conferring with his friends
as t6the probable result. After the close Of the
session he had long conference with Charley
Foster. and this evening John Sherman has
been closeted at the White House. and STAN
ley Matthews has been invisible to all callers.
All these circumstances were believed to
lend credence TO the rumor. and by 10 o'clock
this evening the hotels were astir about it. A
careful sitting OF the reports received. however.
lends 70 the conclusion that the excitement in
New Orleans for two days has bred sensational
reports there which have been recklessv trle-
been assuring them they ought 10 be indicted.
There is doubtless ground for tho belief that
the Returning Board have warned sherman and
others that II they are sacrificed by their
friends here they will act In their
own defence. with small regard for CON
sequences. II is by no means the first
warming Last September. when the indictment
WITS first found. Wells and Anderson hunted up
Sherman and Matthews and secured from them
promise of the Deputy Collectorship for Tom
Anderson. who WIS indu ted without the for
