BRET HAETE, the well known writer
and poet, who has jus. been appointed to
a Commercial Agency in Germany, is
careless restless sort of z fellow, aud has
never learned to take care of his money.
a prominent journalist Of the Pacific
Slope once told the writer an amusing
story OF the way H4RTE used TO do when
he lived In San Francisco and was IN the
zenith o: his fame and prosperity.
He had en- arrangement with great
New York publishing house by which
the latter had the first right to refuse or
accept any of his productions. One
morning he came sauntering lszi)y into
the San Francisco ofico Of the New York
house mentioned, and after seating him
self il comfortable armchair, began to
fan himself with Ais immense sombrero.
The gentleman in charge of the Office
being well acquainted with HARTE and
his ways, said, "WelI, BRET, what can l
DO for your"
u want 10 60 aashing," drawlod out
the poet, "and I haven't any money. l
wrote this thing before l got out Of he'd
this morning, and you can have it for
$500 aud he handed cvy- four or five
sheets Of manuscript OF q poem.
Alter reading it, the representative Of
his publishers said it was only worth Il
hundred dollars.

the As have it."
"uold on : minute and I'll telegraph
to New York for Instructions said the
uneasy publisher.
When lie returned from the telegraph

waking him up ne shook a little bundle
Of bank notes in The poets face and said:

Keep pushing; tits wiser
Than sitting aside,
And dreami lg and signing,
And waiting the tide.
Id life's sorest battle
They only prevail
Who daily march onward
And never say fail!
With an eye ever opened,
A tongue that's not dumb,
And a heart that will never,
That will never succumb-
You'll battle and conquer
Though thousands assail;
How strong and how mighty
Who never say fail!
The spirit of angels
Is active I know,
AS higher and higher
In glory they go.
Methinks on bright pinions
From heaven they sail,
To cheer and encourage
Who never say fail!
In life's rosy morning.

A FEMALE COMMUNE
THE LAST DAYS OF THE CON
FEDERACY.
AN EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AT RICH
MOND.

I An incident of the War related by Major
John r Daniels, ,of Virginia.
p When Harper's Ferry was captured
at the beginning of the war, all the
available, machinery for the manu-
facture of arms was taken to Rich
mond. Hundreds of workmen, and
their wives and daughters, had been
employed in the arsenals and ma
chine shops, and they followed the
machinery TO the capital in search
of employment. They got it. For
time they were regularly paid in
good money, and everything moved
smoothly. But as the currency de-
preciated they began to suffer. The
money received by the workmen
would not support their families. AS
the war progressed Confederate notes
became almost valueless. Grant had
his hand on the throat of the Con.
tederacy at Petersburg. The wages
of the workmen would not purchase
the food for their families. They
protested, but in vain. They were
TOO patriotic to organize revolution.
Their women, however, formed Sc
cret society based on communistic
principles. They seem to have held
that their husbands were working
for the Confederacy, and that the
Confederacy was the only safety of
the grocers and shop keepers. With
out clothing and provisions their
husbands and sons must stop work.
This would cut of necessary NUM-
lions and supplies, the government
would fail, and all be involved in one
common ruin. To avoid this gen.
eral division of food and clothing
must be made. The wives and
daughters of laborers and mechanics
throughout the capital generally
joined in the movement.
While standing in Main street one
morning the major witnessed an ex.
traordinary scene. Hundreds of wo.
men suddenly appeared. The broad
avenue was filled with them. They
came filing in from the cross streets
by platoons and began to sack the
stores. Hollow-eyed and gaunt with
hunger, nobody dared resist them.
A crowd Of men hung upon the out
skirts, offering no interference and
expressing no sympathy for the shop
keepers. The women took the stores
in line, one after the other. They
proceeded Systematically. The goods
were piled upon wagons, drawn by
horses driven by female sympathiz-
ers. Not word was spoken. The
work was done with terrible earnest
ness. When the mob. entered gro
Gerry a certain percentage of them
piled the goods upon the outstretch-
ed arms of the others, and they were
borne to the streets and dumped in
to the wagons. The women had it
all their own way. Neither soldiers
nor police were in sight. Mean
while the crowd increased. Other
women heard what was going on,
and focked to Main street for a share
in the plumber Not man joined
them, and for a long time no one
made an effort to stop them. At
last Congressman Baldwin, Of Vir-
ginia, jumped upon a dry goods box
and made a passionate appeal for law
and order. He might as we'll have
talked to the wind, No one paid the
