Under The Crust.

Inc reporter was passing down North
Commercial street, last evening, looking
out, as usual, for bits of news. Across
the street, sitting on the edge of the side
walk, with battered dress, bare head and
shoeless feet, was little girl about nine
years old, crying as though her heart
would break if the bitter tears did not
o'eraow. Attracted by anything unusual,
the reporter paused moment. in doubt
whether to go to her or not. But in that
brief lapse of time entered another man
upon the stage, and his coming, as it
proved, rendered the scene all the more
complete. His face, eyes, garments, be-
tokcned the drunkard-one who thirsted
after drink, and whose lips were ALWAYS
parched. Rough looking though he
was, close observer might detect some
thing that bore faint resemblance to
the man he used to be. Staggering
along, scarcely able to keep on the walk,
he approached the spot where sat the
child. His dull ears caught the sound of
sobs, his footsteps we're arrested, and fix
ing his eyes on the still weeping girl, he
reeled toward her side, bent over her, end
with thick tongue asked why she wept.
The reporter stood near, and watched the
contact of these two wretched beings
with no little interest. In answer to that
rough mans inquiry the child replied
that her mother had driven her out of
home-had followed her with curses and
blows out of the only door that had ever
opened to her, and that she was afraid to
60 back.
"Have you fathel2" he asked.
mo, sir; but, oh! I wished papa was
here; he was SO good and kind"
"When did he die?''
"a good while ago, sir; and mother
says he died drum ard; but he was al
ways kind to me, and loved him"
What was there in that child's voice
that moved this man to soberness?
He sat down at her side, put
around her his great strong arm, pressed
her pinched face to his breast, and who
can tell what he thought or what he suf-
fered as the scaldlng tears burst from
his eyes and rolled down his bloated
cheeks? He treated that feeble girl with
all nderness, he reeled no more; her
story had restored the man within him
His home was on the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids and Northern railway. He was
farmer, but his love for liquor
had ruined his body, absorbed his prop
erty, and his own wife and little ones
were to-day in as destitute circumstances
as the child he sat beside.
''Died Drunkardv' Who can tell
with what saving weight those fell up
on his ears, or how far that poor waits
influence is gone toward hi: redemption
BE took the child across the street to a
bakery, and saw that she was fed. He
gave her some pieces of silver for future
use and then was seen to recsoss the street
and go with the girl toward her home.
The reporter was willing to grant that
with such a mediator, reconciliation
would surely follow, and, more than this,
he felt sure that that the angel in that
man was so much larger and naturally
stronger than the evil one, that some ho-
ly influences would yet combine to save
him. Nobility of heart and soul belongs
to God, wherever it may be found; a5d
it is frequently discovered just under the
crust.

Frank went into business, and he hired
his cousin Sidney for a bookkeeper, and
paid him good salary. Lydia had come
to her senses, and when her mother went
to live with Nellie she resolved that she
would make the best of the estate which
had fallen to her lot, though she will
never cease to regret, during the moments
when the old thoughts of fashionable life
come over her, the slight mistake she
made in playing her Game of Life.

FULFILLMENT.

Sometimes, l think, the things we see
Are shadows Of the things to be;
That what we plan, we build:
That every hope that hath been crossed,
And every dream we thought was lost,
In Heaven shall be fulfilled.
That even the children Of the brain
Have not been born and died in vain,
Though here unclothed and dumb;
But on some brighter, better shore
They live, embodied evermore,
And wait for us to come -

When Nellie found herself within q
comfortable, well-furnished house, and
knew that 1t was her own, and that her
husband was wealthy, she sank upon his
bosom and wept in her joyful gratitude.
She tried to chide him for having de-
ceived her, but very soon he convinced
her that he had not deceived her at all.
"This blissful hour" he cried, "has
been my goal for years. Through all the
weary seasons of toll have been sus-
tanned by the hope that In the end this
fair hand should be mine; and not a joy
has my wealth promised me that did not
look TO you as sharer in it."
Nellie believed him, and she ms hap

dered reinforcements of raw recruits
to replace those necessarily drawn
from the lines for the defense OF
Cabul. Telegraphic communica-
ton between the points has not
been interrupted, although, as the
country to the east aud south is
largely in the hands of Afghan
bands, cutting Off the wires is hour
ly anticipated. The situation is
very grave, and unless the
next move of the British army re-
suits in q sweeping victory it is
possible that the capital will be
placed In state of siege. a dis
patch from Cabul, dated to-day,
says that the proposed plan of
attack upon the position occupied
by the Afghans on the heights
south of Cabul by the British troops
has been abandoned for the present.
The enemy is in so great force there
that 1t Is felt that an attack would
in all probability result in serious
aud useless loss of life. It is be-
lieved that the purpose of General
Roberts is, as soon as reinforcements
now Ell route arrive,in case the en-
emy Is not reinforced before that
time, to make the attack yesterday
proposed. The NcsOs, by special cour-
iers from the interior, shows the
insurrection to be spreading on all
sides, and it is not impossible that
the military operations on the part
of the British will soon be reduced
to an effort to defend themselves
within the fortified positions which
they now hold in and around
Cabul. The British army now
available for duty at Cabul is less
than half as great as that of the
enemy, while the stragetic ability
of Mahmoud JAMS and other Sepoy
and hill tribe leaders has been
dangerously underrated. The
Ghuznces are exceptionally we'll
commanded, as are also the Kohis-
tans. 1t is feared the expected re-
Inducements may be attacked by
the strong bands reported gather
ing along their line of march, and
there are apprehensions, it is whis-
pered in army circles. that unless
they arrive and render the defense
impregnable, the natives within
the city will rise in insurrectlon.
