quired much skill in the cure of simple
ailments, and that, with his odds and
ends, he was in fact one of the most
useful men in the country.
"The storm increased, and Kit re-
manned all night. He was carried in
front of the kitchen fire, the straw of
his bed renewed, and warm coverlids
spread over the coffin.
"My own chamber was over the
kitchen. There were cracks in the log
flooring through which 1 could look
down, and through which, too, rudy
flashes of freight came up cheerfully.
After the house was all quiet, Patsy,
the innocent came into the kitchen,
and, throwing down a blanket on the
warm hearth, near to Kit, curled up on
it like dog. The neighborhood of the
queer pair made me restless, suppose,
for l could not sleep. l heard the clock
in the hall strike midnight, and then
o'clock. Then muffled sound struck
my ear, very different from the noises
of the storm. 1t was the drawing back
of the heavy bar from the outer door.

the next moment 1 rose uneasily, and
crept to the window. Through the
gray storm without could see that the
road and yard were fill
ed with dark figures, stealthily
surrounding the house. understood
it all ut a glance.
"The year had been one of great
suffering-almost of famine-and bands
of desperate men had attacked several
of the farm-houses in that part of the
country, which they had plundered,
and then set on fire. These desperate
men were still at large. TWAS asserted
that they were peasants, heretofore de-
cent and honest men. Whoever they
might be, it was certain that, as soon as
caught, they would swing for it.
"I shook with terror. knew that
my uncle had a large sum of money in
his chamber, just received for cattle,
and doubtless these men knew il too. |

h.ep handed to us by one OF our most
rs.rcctable and enterprising mer-
chants. The subject-matter of the
s-,ic!e entirely explains itself upon

,ro., hat the writer will meet with
. hearty approval from all candid
d,.lers and buyers in our communi-
~. To speak in the mi!dest terms
ro,,ible, it is absolutely suicidal TO
IL prosperity of any town for its
QUEENS to give the cold shoulder to
those dealers who own property and
my taxes in common with them
scl,.l by sending away to dealers
who know them not, for every tri-
fling article of home consumption in
the way of drygoods. furniture and
thousand other articles too numer-
Gus to mention. There may be q
certain nameless qualification in
sending from Olympia to San Fran
cisco or one of the Atlantic cities, to
get a piece of carpeting for private
r. public use, or even to decorate
he floor of church, but such graf
iiication is, in every sense of the
word, morbid one. Indeed, we
seriously question the integrity of q
religious denomination that can so
cater to the miserable vanity of the
world as to strive to ape the motions
of aristocracy by wearing its cast-off
tinsel before the gaping multitude.
THE Unitarians say in regard to their
church carpet that when they were ready
to buy, there was not $50 yards of carpet
of one kind in any store in town.

FoR term of years past, many OF
the Atlantic cities have generously
opened and sustained soup-houses
during the winter months for the
sole benefit of the poor. In discus
sing the subject for another year,
the objection Is raised that such
soup-houses, by Offering to the pop
ulace a means of keeping soul and
body together without actual work,
invites, also large army of tramps
to sojourn in the cities where such
advantages are dispensed, thereby
greatly increasing the amount Of
crime during the winter. In view Of
these considerations, st. Louis has
taken the lead in voting down the
soup-house business. Thus. on &C.
count of the abuse of tho thing by
a horde Of unprincipled wretches,
thousands Of poor people must inev.
itably suffer.

VIZ always had great regard for
the learned professions" and have
often unused on the exalted thoughts
that must occupy the expanded
minds of those who enter such
Aowery fields of contemplation.
The clergyman, as it is justly said
of him, hos his conversation in heav-
en- and concerning heavenly things.
The physician, whose calling is scarcely
less eminent in it's great ultima
tum, spends the best years of his
physical and intellectual vigor in min
istering to the crying needs of his
brother man. The lawyer taxes his
brilliant powers, his logic and rhet-
oric in calculating the turbulence
and animosities that arise in every
community. But from the sublime
to the ridiculous, is but STEP. This
thought comes quite in point when
it is announced that, for days TO-
gether, our honorable District Court,
with all its accumulated talent, has
been agonizing over the case of John
Doe vs.. Richard Roe, all on account
of the malicious killing of of few
pigs. We leave comment to those
who sat on hard benches and ner-
vously listened to the whole affair.

till she married rich husband, so the
new depot building only betrays more
clearly the want of a spacious shelter for
the reception and discharging of freight.
AS business increases, the piles of produce
of various kinds are augme nting in sim
liar ratio. The building already erected is
very good in its way, but it only accommo-
dates rolling-stock, and until large share
ofthe now open space is substantially pro-
tected against the weather, there will be

The fatal ARRAY that occurred between
two Eeighbors living on the Nootsack
river, the details of which our readers
have doubtless all heard, presents one of
those strange phases Of human nature. of
which it would seem there can be no
rational or logical explanation. We doubt
whether the history OF the theological
world furnish another instance where two
peaceably inclined neighbors in the rural
districts, sat down on Sunday to discuss
the merits OF religious topics in the pres
ence of their wives and then suddenly
rising up in murderous atf,av, each seiz.
ing u deadly weapon and each doing his
best to take the life of the other. And yet
all. this is only too terribly true. The
hand-tO-hand mortal combat went on,
knife against pistol, until one was stabbed
to the heart and dropped down dead. The
disciples of the perihelion- pestilence
theory, claim to see strange and fearful
premonitions of a coming cataclysm, in the
moral as we'll as in the physical world,
and, verify, it would seem that they are
not from the truth.

This is the latest catch, and an app %
pirate n for these hot days: Two men
enter a saloon, walk up to the bar, aud
converse as if they had just met. One
draws forth his handkerchief, mops off bis
brow, n remarks, "Gracious, how l do
transpirci" Says the other, "You maan
perspire; there is no such word used in
that sense as transpire." There is" slys
number one, "and I'll bet you on the
point" An outsider is then referred to by
sharper number two, and as a general
thing sides with the latter in saying that
there is no such word used in that son e.
III you think So" number one says, II
will bet you that / am right" A bet is
made, number two generally taking part of
it with the stranger. A dictionary is Iro-
cured, the word is found, and the stranger
learns that Webster's Unabridged says !;
''Transpire-to emit through the excreto-
ries OF the skin" Then the victim sets up
tile drinks. That is the way it transpires.
