THE SLAVE OWNER.

Emancipation gave i mortal wound
to the slave owners. Iney were un-
able to adapt themselves to the new or
der Of things and surrendered at diScre
tion, Their children who had reached
mans estate also seemed either not to
grasp the situation, or to lack the will
to accept it. At all events both failed
to make the effort to prize themselves
out Of the old ruts, and have been
steadily going whittier the old ruts lead
them, back into the past. \ past, it l.,
true, filed with delightful memories !;
hallowea by tenderest ties fruitful OF
flowers now thOrniess, where the roof
tree Of every family threw wide Its
spreading branches beneath the crate
full shaae of which were gathered In
summer only those who were brave,
tender and true, to be waited into
dreamland by cool breezes, where the
winter fire served to draw closer togeth
er in social intercourse the inmates Of
every household :; where a bounteous
hospitality set forth good cheer, skill
fully prepared by that mistress of the
art-cuinary, the turbaned cook, an art
now numbered with the lost since that
ally of the Devil and the Doctor the
Yankee store has made cooking easy,
and its dishes unpalatable. 1t matters
little whether the slave Owner Is to &c
ab urd, pitied or dispisei. Time Will
soon place him to Us, where he has al
way boon. IN the past.

vide for his wants. TrInpleton," tine
Boston correspondent Of the Hartford

Of large self-c,tecln, and considerable
capacity OF self-assertion. winch stood
IN the way of his success in the ministry.
81 call to mind one incident which il
was my fate to witness.
"Mr. Giles was engaged one summer
Sunday to preach in town about ten
miles from Boston. He stood up in the
pulpit to announce his text.
Exactly at the Same moment, a
tired farmer, who occupied a conspicu-
ols pew in front of the pulpit, drew a
red-si!k handkerchief out of his pocket,
deliberately spread it over his own bald
head and forehead to protect them from
the flies, and resigned himself to slum-
ter.
This was too much for the dignity Of
Mr. Giles. He stopped, shut up his ser
mon, and began to glare at the somno-
lent parshioner.
"The latter rested in serene uncon-
sciousness, while the rest Of the concre-
CATION looked to see how this singular
duel would end
"The silence became protracted, till,
all at once, it appeared to occur to the
individual who WAS the cause of it that
it was worth while to ascertain what it
was all about.
"He removed his handkerchief and
looked up, only to find himself fixed by
the glittering eye of the preacher, and
by the eyes of everybody else.
"With a convulsive start, he aban-
doncd all thought of a nap that day.
and.the sermon went on. Ia fact. il was
a pretty lively congregation for a hot
Sunday"

lady, I'm sorry for you; stay here

She turned away and went through a
middle room into the kitchen, with the
stranger following her. In a corner of
the kitchen sat her sewing-maciine, and
she fumbled around in the drawer after
the money with the man watching her
closely. She did not find the money,
but in the back Of the drawer she found
her husbands derringer, which carried
forty-two caliber cartridge. She
cooked it. Whats that?" he said.
"Oh, nothing" said the lady, as she
thrust the derringer under his nose.
"Only my pistol is loaded, and yours is
not. This might go off. Hadn't you
better go instead ?" 81 believe-that
