Cassius M. Clay writes to the Louis
vile Courier Journal: "a submission
for another four years to a rape of the
Presidency would be cowardice rather
than prudence or regard for peaceful
remedies. 1t is not safe for freemen to
submit tamely to outrage and tyranny.
Eternal vigilance and proeipt action
are the price OF liberty"
The population of the little New
Hampshire town of Chichester has
been steadily dwindling for thirty
years, at the rate ofseven persons a
year. 1t has fallen off nearly one
fourth since 1850, But the real es-
tate valuation has increased, rich
city folks pass the summer there, the
farmers are thriving and contented,
and the census enumerator, whose
Christian name is TRUE, thinks that
every Chichesterian has reason to re-
Joice in the towns prosperity. What
a lesson and rebuke for discontented
st. Louis, grumbling because It's pop
ulation turns out not to be quite so
large as was expected?

II ow an Indian Runs Down n Deer

From the San Francisco Post.
When sufficiently near, the hunter
takes his aim, and making slight noise
with his foot on the ground, which causes
the deer to turn toward him, has good
chance to hit it in the middle Of the fore
head. But ithe misses the mark, or his
gun misses fire, then the fun begins in
earnest, and one of the finest races in the
world can be witnCSsed-a naked Indian
and frightened deer at full speed. If the
deer should happen to be not more than
year old, it is Of no use following it, as it
will then outrun any Indian, and run
longer without giving out, but if two or
three years old, or older, good runner
will bring it down in Il few hours, or Ger.
tainly within fifty or sixty miles. THE
narrator, Jose Mcndivl, here insists that
a good runner among the Apaches can
run one hundred and twenty-five miles in
twenty-four hours casily) The deer starts
at full speed, making long leaps of from
ten to thirty feet. At first he gains
rapidly on the Indian, but the latter fol-
lows, every now and then uttering fright
tul yelIs, but never for moment hating
or losing the trail. The deer when out OF
sight, halts and looks back, but soon
his pursuer comes in sight, when he
bounds on with longer leaps than at first
finally he makes for water, a spring or
stream, and when he gets there halts and
drinks all he wants. Now there is no
hope Tor him, for after he drinks he cannot
run so fast or leap so far. Pretty soon
the Indian comes in sight again, while |
the tired deer rests moment, but the
tired hunter never halts to drink, not if |
his mouth is as dry as ashes, for by so
doing he not only loses time, but cannot
run SO fast afterward.
On he goes, never resting, either on the |
hill or on the mountain. If that deer |
takes to the top of the highest mountain,
right on his track the Apache follows. By |
and by the Indian sees blood stain on |
a rock where the deer has stumbled and
skinned his knee or struck his nose He |
knows now that the race will soon be
ended, and runs faster every minute |
When the deer sees the Apache close upon
HIM he stops suddenly by rock or bush |
and turns. Sometimes as soon as he stops
he drops down faintin0, or even dead, |
from fatigue. If not dead already, when |
the Indian seizes him by the head and |
hind legs, he makes but little resistance
and is dispatched with the knife. The |
hunter now cuts out fine piece and eats |
it, taking not moments rest for fear OF |
getting stiff, but puts the deer on his
shoulders, or, if too heavy, a part Of it, |
placing the rest in secure place, and |
then trots back to his camp, having trav-
eled perhaps a hundred miles without
resting. The next day some one will
take his back track for the balance of the
game -7ss7-a---s-

could be put in your possession to do what
you like with it, would you marry a
Woman who loves you better than Laura
Work ever could2"
She felt him start as she leaned upon
his arm, and her hand frightened on what
was in her pocket. His face was slightly
averted, so that she could not see its ex-
preston. His answer came after some
moments, but in voice so husky and
changed she would scarcely have known it,.
81 would"
Trembling with joy she drew out the
folded paper, and put it in his hand.
He held it up in the moonlight a
moment, and then, thrusting it inside his
breast, turned suddenly and began to 90
swiftly toward the house. Pauline could
scarcely keep up with HIM. An awful
mlsglylng seized her.
"What are Won pOinp to doPn
"You shall see," he answered sternly,
and she read his determination IN his
eyes.
"What fool was!" she muttered but
made one effort more.
Laura and Lester won't thank you for
lnterrupting them"
No answer, as he strobe on and entered
the drawing room through one OF the open
French windows. Laura sat there with
her mother. She had been crying. No

Laura was white and speechless with
bewlderment.
Laura detests Robert Lester cried |
Mrs. Work taking in the situation at |
once. "She has never cared for any one
but you, Lewis Vanwirt, and you ought to |
know 1t.
,'0h! my darling2" calculated Lewis,
wildly extending his arms, sis it true2"
In another minute Laura was sobbing |
on his shoulder.
Pauline went quietly to her own room
and spent the night in packing. When,
next morning, she announced her ap.
departure, no one objected.
Lewis Vanwirt looked somewhat en-
barrassed when Laura told him of the |
promise she had made his grandfather the |
night he died.

In stage conversation the origin ol
Buffalo Bills cognomen was related.
William had hunted and secuted with
no remarkable success or astonishing ad
adventure till one day, in hunting buffalo,
he wounded a large bull who showed fight,
The maddened animal rushed at him and
gored his horse, dismounting our hero, to
whom the buffalo now turned his atten.
ton. On the open plain, it looked gloomy
for William, but his presence of mind did
not desert him, and taking an opportunity
he got behind the buffalo and seized his
tail. Holding on for his life, despite the
plunging of the astonished beast, he drew
his knife and succeeded in ham stringing
his adversary and bringing him to the
ground. This adventure procured Cody
the name and fame which have been 50
advantageous to him.

THE YEARS ARE PASSING by.

The years are passing by
We watch, as from an open door,
Their passage through Times CORRIDOR
Each shadow, in its falling, slopes
Across the grave of buried hopes;
Tho pulse of being slower beats
Through Winters snow, through Summer
heats,
And faith and hope and love grow cold
As we grow old-as we grow old
The years are passing byl
The years are passing by!
Times record hath such pages blurred
With hasty deed, with bitter word;
Such sad mistakes mark all life's years
We scarce can read, because of tears;
We see dead faces on the walls,
We hear dead voices in the halls,i
We touch some hands on bended knee,
We kiss some lips we cannot sec
The years are passing by!
The years are passing by!
They carry with them as they go
The rain, the sunshine, and the snow;
They leave behind the drift of days
Wherein each soul some penance pays;
Some hopes we have but not our own,
Some loves we cherish, not alone;
And there arc leaves and faded flowers
That tell sad tales in memory's hours.
The years are passing byl
The years are passing byl
The seal of silence on our lips
We closer press. Times umbra dips
To deeper darkness down the lane
Through which we walk to hide our pain.
We smile and smile as one who bears
A life untouched by grief or cares,
But when in solitude we wait,
We bow our head at sorrows gate.
The years are passing byl
The years are passing hy
Another joins the passing band
Oh, ia there not some other land
Where compensation for all ills
The measure of life's being tills2
We wait the answer, but in vain,
The shadow falls, sense of pain
Rests on us whereso'er we go
And whispers of the sod and snow.
The years are passing by.

NOT vOTING-0O.


From the San Francisco Chronicle.
The statement of Kearney's counse
that he was unable to pay the fine o
81 1000 was not endorsed by Kearney him
self at the house Of correction, nor is it il
accord with authentic reports concerning
the pecuniary profit that his business O
"agitating" had brought him in. Before
the late W. S. O'Brien died, acting entire
ly independently OF the firm, and being
enraged at an attack made on him by
Kearney on the first flush of the latter'i
prominence, he is said to have dashed of
a check of $4,000 for Kearney, saying
'lt's cheaper to buy the thar
bother with him!" Kearney received
$4,000 during gubernatonal campaign
ceived from $4,000 to 800, during the
new constitution campaign for his apathy
during the last six weeks before election.
In fact, as nearly as can be estimated, his
pecuniary profits are in the neighborhood
Of $50, 900, At the house of correction, when
asked if he were able to pay his $1,000
fine, he answered evasively. As no i'm
prisonment, except the SIX months which
formed a part of his sentence. and which
began with his incarceration yesterday

as the collection of the amount must be b,

An Old Virginia Giant.

Letter in the Petersburg Appeal
The allusion in recent letter of youl
Louisa correspondent to the old revolu
tionary giant hero, Peter Francisco, re-
wives many traditions and "reminiscences
of the wonderful performances and daring
deeds of that extraordinary man. My
father, recently deceased at the advanced
age of 30, well remembered him, having
frequently seen him in his native county
of Buckingham, and related many anec-
dotes of his stirring and perilVus advent
ures and hair breadth escape as he heard
the recital fall from the lips of the giant
himself. He described him as G foot |
inch in height, his weight 260 pounds, his
complexion dark, and swarthy features
bold and manly and his hands and feet
uncommonly large, his thumbs being as
large as an ordinary mans wrist.
Such was his personal strength that be
could easily shoulder q cannon that
weighed LOO pounds, and he had seen
him take man in his right hand, pass
over the floor and dance his head against
the ceiling with as much ease as if he had
been doll badly. The mans weight was
1876 pounds. Partaking Of the patriotic
enthusiasm Of the times, he entered the
American revolutionary army at the age
of l6. He was present at the storming Of
Stony Point, and was the first soldier,
after Maj. Gibbon, who entered the fort.
ress, on which occasion he received n
bayonet wound in the thigh. He was at
Brandywine, Monmouth and other battles
at the North, and was transferred to the
South under Gen. Greene, where he was
engaged in the actions OF the Cowpens,
Camden, Guilford Court.hbuse, etc. He
was so brave and possessed such confidence
in his prowess that he was positively fear
less. He used a sword with blade FIVE
feet long, which he could WELD like n
feather, and every swordsman who came
within reach of him paid the forfeit Of his
life.

Weak But Strong.


| will tell you a true story for the child
ren to hear. and leave each one to enforce
its lessen in his or her own way. The bit
of girl of whom l told you in my last tlet-
ter is not one of the "goody good" child
rem, but perfect bunch of mischief who
needs constant watching. She had taken
a fancy to play with the key other fathers
desk, often taking it out for the purpose.
One day he told her never to take it out
again, fearing it might be lost. Some few
days after he was lying half asleep on
the sofa, the little daughter playing be-
side him-the sudden stiffness of the room
reused him to the fact that she had disap-
peared, and seeing thetdoor to the next
room where the desk was open, he stole
softly towards it to see what the child was
doing. There she stood, just in front Of
the coveted key, both tiny hands clasped
behind her back, and leaning forward on
her tiptoes she kissed it gently. The
father crept unseen to his sofa, and in n
moment she came and stood beside him,
with hands still folded behind her, and
said, "My' dinn't touch the key cause
papa told her not TO-" Surely il tiny
creature like this could put temptation
behind her, we grown up folks ought to
have strength enough too,
