And little Mr.. Smith. nodding APP
provingly. removed from the dead
mans body the money-belt of which
Mr.. Macarthur had been deprived.
But instead of handing it to that
gentleman. he buckled 1t about his own
waist, with an agreeable smile.
"What the deuce does this mean?"
yelled Macarthur, whose face was pur-
pie with rage, when, no less to his own
than to our own establishment, his arms
were pinioned by the little colporteur,
who seemed to have the strength OF
two ordinary men. And in another in
slant his wrists were adorned with q
pair of shining steel handouts.
"1t's no use kicking. William"
quietly remarked his captor, removing
faded tiaxen wig from his own head
and exposing to view short crop OF
stubby black hair. II didn't mean to
have pulled you till we got to Yelling
ton, but this little affair has, so to
speak, precipitated matters little
And after we were all again en- route,
having left word at the next station as
to the disposition of the outlaws bodies,
the pseudo Mr.. Smith informed us that
the scowling prisoner on the seat oppo.
site, who was kept in bounds by the
sight of cooked revolver in the capt.
or's hands, was one William Hardy,
with dozen aliases, whom he-Denni-
son Hunt, the then beet known detect
i've in England-had followed from
Liverpool to the very heart of South
Africa, reward of II 900 having been
offered for his apprehension as principal
in a great London bank robbery.
''But l never thought should see the
means Of helping you two gents to your
lost property" said Mr.. Smith, with
his customary placid smile, as, after the
wearisome journey, we alighted in front
of the Digger's Retreat at Wellington,
with t-begrimed faces and stitlened
limbs, four days later.
And, to his credit be it said, the de.
tective would not accept penny OF
recompense from either of us.
The excitement of the little scrim.
mage was enough" he said, as we
shook hands at parting.

THE GUEST

o thou Guest, SO long DELAYED.
fSurely. when the house was made.
In It's chambers, wide and free,
Inere was set place for thee.
Sureiy IN some room was spread
for thy sake q snowy bed,
Decked with linen white and fine.
Meet, U Guest, for use of thine.
I Yet thou hast not kept the tryst.
Other guests our lips have kissed;
Other guests have tarried long.
Moved by sunshine and by song;
For the year was bright with May,
All the birds kept holiday,
All the skies were clear and blue,
"hen this house of ours was new.
Youth came in with us to dwell,
Crowned with rose and asphodel,
fingered long, and even yet
Can not quite his haunts forget.
, Love hath sat beside our board,
Brought us treasures from his hoard,
trimmed our cups with fragrant wine,
Vintage of the hills divine.
Down our garien-path has strayed
Young Romance, in light arrayed;
JOY hath flung her Rarlands wide:
Faith sung low at eventide;
Care hath fitted in and out;
sorrow strewn her weeds about;
Hope held up her torch on high
when clouds darkened all the sky.
Pain, with pallid lips and thin,
L St hath slept our house within;
Lie hath called us. loud and long,
With voice as trumpet strong
sometimes we have thought, q Guest
Thou vert coming with the rest,
watched to see thy shadow fall
: On the inner chamber wall
For we know that, soon or late,
Thou witt enter at the gate
Cross the threshold. pass the door,
Glide at will from floor to floor
: When thou contest, by this sign
We shall know thee, Guest divine:
/ Though alone thy coming be.
Some one must go forth with thee.

candidates for Speaker of the
House has written 4 letter in
which he stated that he favors
appropriations by the govern
msnt for the Improvement OF
the navigation OF tho Mississippi
pi river. The impression pre-.
vailed largely that he was an
opponent Of all such appropria-
tions and this injured him in
his candidacy among the mem
bers from tho Mississippi valley
He says: I am in favor of sep
Grating that river from the long
list of creeks and ponds usually
contained in the bills, so that i
can properly be considered and
provided for On its own merits.
Possibly it may be necessary to
include with it the Ohio and
Missouri. its two greatest tribu
taries. 1t will always have
friends enough to secure full
Justice, and 1t ought not to be
compelled to carry other ques
tionable improvements with 1t.

John Il. Lynch is reported BY
. Baltimore paper ~ stating
that the Republican situation in
Mississippi had been improved
very much lately and he made
the astonishing assertion that
he expected to see five Repub-
lican congressman elected in
this State next year. He will
find that he is wofully deceived
in his estimate of the strength
Of his party aud when the cleo
ton comes Off he will discover
that not more than one member
opposed to the Democracy 10
elected. We expect TO see tho
opponents Of Democracy badly
beaten, both this year and the
noxt year.
