No Use for Guards.

In the spring of 1866, when Sheridan's cav
airy moved up the Shenandoah Valley to have
last wrestle with Early's troopers, a halt was
made by portion of the Union force near
Waynesborough. Guards were thrown out to
protect property, and among others the house
of lone and aged widow received such pro-
lection. Two dismounted cavalrymen were
stationed at the front door, and it was half an
hour or so before any stir in or around the
house gave token that it was inhabited. Then
the widow limped to the door on a crutch and
called one of the guards to her and asked
What are you doing here?''
I'VE are guards to protect you and your
property" was the reply.
well, you needn't fool away any time

Then Sheridan come and he took our corn.
Then Mosby he stole our hams and Eaters.
Then Sheridan took our flour and cider Then
Early run off all our horses. All had left
this morning was an old sick mule and meal
enough for one hoe-cake. The mule he died
two hours ago, and I've just eaten the last of
the cake, and if you can find anything worth

But some of the soldiers may disturb YOU l."

spot where cannon ball had torn through the
house. "The day that hole was shot through

Tale of the Fishwife and It's Sad
Fate.


The following thrilling sketch from Mark
Twain's new book is a clever hit at the pecu-
liarities of German composition: 1t is a bleak
Day. Hear the Rain, how he pours, and the
Hail, how he rattles; and see the SnoW, how
he drifts along, and, oh, the Mud, how deep he
is! All, the poor Fishwife, it is stuck fast in
the Mire; it has dropped its Basket of Fishes;
and its Hands have been cut by the Scales as
it seized some of the falling Creatures; and
one Scale has even got into its Eye, and it can
not get her out. 1t opens its Mouth to cry for
Help, but if any Sound comes out of him, alas,
he is drowned by the raging of the Storm.
And now a Tomcat has got one of the Fishes,
aud she will surely escape with him. No. she
bites off Fin, she holds her. in her Mouth
will she swallow her? No. the Fishwife's
brave Mother-Dog deserts his Puppies and res
cues the Fin as his Reward. o horror! the
Lightning has struck the Fishbasket! He sets
him on Fire; See the Flame, how she ticks the
doomed Utensil with her red and angry
Tongue Now she attacks the helpless Fish
wife's Foot-she burns him up all but the big
Toe and even she is partly consumed and still
she spreads, still she waves her fiery Tongues!

she attacks its Hand and destroys her she at
lacks its poor worn Garment anddestroys her
also; She attacks its Body and consumes him;
she wreathes herself about its Heart and it is
consumed; next about the Breast, and in Mo-
ment she is Cinder; now she reaches its Neck
he goes; now its Chin-it goes; now its Nose
she goes. In another Moment, except Help
come the Fishwife will be no more! Time

JOY! Joy! with flying feet the she-English-
woman comes! alas! the generous she-Female
is too late! Where now is the fated Fishwife?
1t has ceased from its suffering; 1t has gone to
better Land; all that is left of it for its loved
ones to lament over is this poor smoudering
Ash heap. All, woful woful Ash heap! Let us
take him up tenderly, reverently, upon the
lowly Shovel, and bear him to his long Rest,
with the Prayer that when he rises again it
will be in Realm where he will have one
good, square responsible Sex, and have it all
to himself, instead of having NANCY lot of
assorted sexes scattered all over him in Spotf

was committed by James Tobin, boss steve
dore, last night, his own daughter being the

terrible thunder storm which was raging be-
cause his wife refused to go for beer for him
and friend who was with him. Later his
daughter Nellie, a girl of II, returned back,
and he sent her outawith S. to buy valaise,
saying he was going to pack up his things and
leave his family forever. She got the valaise
and returned but had neglected to provide
key. This SO enraged him that he tore the
lock to pieces and ordered Nellie to return the
valaise and get back its price. She went into
an adjoining room, but he suspecting she was
not obeying ORDERS followed and dragged
her bnck by the hair and threw her violently
on or the floor. Then he jumped on
her breast with his knees and began
pounding her. she crying ooh father do not
kill me-" When he stopped Mrs. Robinson
who lived in the house and who had been
calling for help assisted Nellie into the next
room but blood came frothing to her lips and
she died in 4 few minutes. Tobin was ar
rested.

Saturday expresses strong confidence that
Garfield will carry the North solid. 1t
speaks as follows:
We have heretofore expressed the
opinion that Garfield and Arthur would
receive In the Electoral College the vote Of
every Northern State. This conviction ia
stronger ut this time than previously. we
have adviCes from the highest sources o.

see that there Is no step backward IN that
State, and the Northwest will all be one
way. The Pacific States, we do not Pc

The only debatable question, therefore,
Ia whether the South will be solid for

WASHINGTON, October 2s.-The Sparta
Ca Ismaelih, an extreme Southern

Hancock torrepudiating the tariff platform
OF his party:
"Gen, Hancock seems to have been ex-
ercisipV himself Of late to convince certain
Eastern Republicans that the Democratic
party does not intend to interfere with
theif monopoly OF the trade oil the people
OF this country. It may be necessary to
the people OF this country. It may be
necessary to the success Of orr party that
these assurances should be given, but
We don't believe 1t. Democratic success
NAV be dependent on convincing the Ia
yored manufacturing classes that the Gin

tariff for revenue only. means just nothing
at all, but It would be hard to establish
the fact. But, even II success were de-
pendent upon the giving Of such assu!v.
