| from Circuit Clerk. ..........- 81 35796
! On the question of overpaymeut to Mr.
| Harson. Circuir Clerk for clerk hire
| L$844.751 during 81 years prior to June
/. 1880, your Committee advised with
counsel employed bV the County on SUB
stantially the following facts:
The County Board at the Septcm Der
Term. 1876, fixed the salary of the Cir
cult CLERK at 81 500 per year, and the al
lowance for his clerk hire at $1,000, per
year, From time to time after this date.
Mr., Harson submitted to the Board his
Reports showing that he had retained
from fees collected by him his salary as
fixed. and for clerk hire amounting TO al
most $1,000 year. The difference be
tween the clerks hire first fixed by the
Board and the amount subsequently al
lowed. is shown by the foregoing state
ment. to be $844,75. We are advised by
counsel that the allowance for clerk hire is
a matter of the reasonable expense of the
office; that notwithstanding the fixing of
limit by the Board.it is within the power
of the Board to increase the allowance;
that, in the absence of Fraud or Mistake
neither of which appears to counsel, the
amount allowed by the Board for clerk
hire should stand.
Your Committee desires TO call the at
tention of the Board to an apparent error
to the Report of the Circuit Clerk made
in this Board May 81 1878, in which he
charges himself with court costs received
amounting to S437-70, while the Fee
Register shows received 10 court costs
1863 10. Your Committee have called On
MIR. Harson u number of times, to give
then the items received accounting for
the difference between the sum reported
and the sum entered on the Fee Register.
His answer has been that he received the
money and had accounted for it TO tie
County. so that the county has sustained
no loss by it aud could not complain. In
makiDg the statement of Mr.. Harson's ac-
count we have assumed that he did re
ceive the amount of court costs, as report
ed 10 the Report before referred TO.
COUNTY CLERKS ACCOUNT.
Your Committee do BOT present any
account with the County Clerk Office as
there does not appear. from the examina
ton as far as made, that anything is due
the county from that Office.
We have found errors against and in
favor Of the late County Clerk. and have
also memoranda of various accounts yet
to be examined. but it is the opinion oil
your Com mittee that when all the items
of which we have memoranda are charged
ed and credited as they prope. ly should
be, the accounts will about balance. The
last figures made, show balance due the
late County Clerk Of $40 Al with, as bee
fore stated, a number of items yet to be
examined

and as he advanced to ascertain the cause,
another sound mingles with the confusion:
Hark it is the sound of trampling hoofs, of
rushing cavalry. The clashing steel and pis-
tol shot mingled with savage yells, more hid
eous than all, tell of war and death. For a
moment the parties hesitate Hardy is the
first to understand the cause, and springing
at the door, mingles in the fray. One instant
Davie hesitates. Bending over the pallid
face of Ellen, he cried
Ellen my own Ellen, there is no longer
cause for fear. I hear Bowen's voice-I am
free, free," said he, joyfully. "These are sad
circumstances under which to leave you, but
I must away. Heaven bless you, my brave
GIRL" and he pressed his lips to the pale brow.

SIEGE OF CoRINTH.
Ellen Campbell retired to her room, but
not to sleep. Those bitter words rang in her
ear. She had wounded, by her coolness, the
heart she would have died to save. If she
had had but the courage to have extended
her hand to him. But coward that she was
she would suffer, herself, and worse, far worse,
let him suffer rather than conquer a cruel
modesty. She felt weak-nervous the task
of undressing was wearisome Dismissing her
attendant ere the toilet for the ght was more
than half completed, she extinguished the
light and sat down at the open window
Major Davie, too, was restless. She could
hear him in the room opposite to her own,
pacing to and fro, but at length the sound
ceased and all was quiet. Sadly and dreami
ly gazing out on the moonlight, her atten-
tion was caught by shadows falling upon the
sward Her first impulse was to rise and look
out, but the rattling of a sabre struck her ear,
and instantly sense Of danger entered her
mind She remained motionless for some
time, then hearing whispered voices she sank
on her knees and placed her ear to the sill.
"Place couple of men at each door, and
sentinels round the house, and we'll be sure
to have him." said Ferris.
The voice was not familiar to Ellen, and
she only gathered enough to know there was
threatened danger to Major Davie; but
soon the sound Of Captain Hardy's voice
struck terror to her heart
"Quick, boys quick what we do must be
done quickly we have no time to lose. Force
an entrance if necessary, and hang him to his
own bed post, rather than let him escape"
Ellen sprang to her feet; not moment
was to be lost. Hastily throwing her shawl
around her bare shoulders, and fastening the
dress that had been partially unloosed, she ran
down stairsto her uncle'sroom. Jerry, his man
servant, slept in an ante room adjoining his
masters, and was the only servant in the
house. Hastily rousing him and charging
him to delay the opening of the door as long

ONE WAY TO CATCH WILD DUCK.

have seen in India, writes traveller,
native fishermen catch wild duck and teal in
an ingenious manner. Say that there is a
large, deep tank, with reedy margin, and
that in the centre of this tank there is flock
Of wildfowl. The fisherman stealthily ap.
proaches the reeds and lets himself down in
to the water. He brings with him couple
of logs of wood, sufficient to float him;
very large earthen pot, into the sides Of which
numerous holes have been drilled; some
twine and two or three tame ducks and hav-
ing these, he now proceeds to cut some of
the tank.side rushes.
After this, he goes on to put his head in
side the inverted earthenware pot, around
which he artfully disposes the rushes. He
goes on then to fasten the pot to his shoul.i
ders, and to tie the tame ducks to the logs
of wood, by slack strings few feet long,
and next ventures out Of the rushes, and
paddles noiselessly off to the flock of Wild
fowl in the centre of the tank. These only
see heap of rushes, an inverted earthen-
ware pot, and couple of logs Of wood float
ing toward them. Whatever suspicious they
may be apt to entertain, are quickly dispelied
by the sight of the tame ducks swimming
about the pot logs and rushes.
The fisherman at length gets into the CEN;
tre of the flock, and it is at once at his mere
cy. Allhe has to do is quietly to stretch
out his hand under water, and pull suddenly
down by the legs the nearest wildfowl. he
does this with jerk-there is no noise and
no flutter-and the moment he has the
wild-fowl he has captured fairly down, he,
rpr;n no ;fo pooL on1 otfcohoo II IN tho fwina
about his person. Half an hour is quite
sufficient for him to kill hundred wild-fowl;
but be prefers lighter load to carry to his
neighboring village, so he satisfies himself
with, say score, and foaEs away with his
tame ducks round him just in the manner
he came. sjts s5I. -

" crossing the threshold. The next instant
there was report, and the pistol ball entered
the ceiling.
"You may thank God you are spared the
life of human being" said he gravely, as
she covered her face and staggered back for
an instant, overcome by a sense Of womanly
fear at the possibility of sending a soul to
judgment; "but give me the pistol, would
save you from a more successful attempt"
"Never," said she, firmly. "You take it
from me at your risk" and again she sprang
back from his touch.
"By heaven GIRL" cried he, exasperated
beyond all control, "you'll force me to wrest
it from you. Cease this idle defiance ; it only
serves to hasten your lovers doom, for l
swear you have taught me never to allow
him to leave this place alive"
"Spare your oaths, sir, and permit me to
leave it now. Iwould save myself insult and
you the modification of further annoying, by
your rude and unmannerly conduct, a helpless
maiden, Let me pass" and drawing her
shawl closely around her, with firm step and
erect carriage, she swept past him, leaving him
in mystifed wonder that she should, at length,
so quietly give up what she had 80 recklessly
contended for. With many muttered curse
at the caprice that so annoyed him, he pro-
ceeded on his fruitless search. Maddened to
find his prey escaped, be searched every nook
and corner in the mansion in vain. Summon.
ing the scattered tories, he sternly upbraided
them with remissness in duty, and swore if
Davie was not caught, he would make Ferris
answer with his life.
Ellen, who had sought refuge with Mr.. Will
loughby in the parlor, in trembling dread,
heard the angry summons and the bitter
curses of the disappointed men. Hoping that
Davie would have the prudence to remain
quietly in his retreat, Ellen determined to
make another effort for him. Calling Jerry,
