KNOW what III Is.
'''What makes you think SOP said
Dan.
II can't tell, replied, she works
all right; but feel it in my bones
:" Guess your thinkin' Of your wife,
returned Dan, with II laugh.
''But while we were gctt'n in the
water | took Il lantern and went round
the engine. Looked at every part of
her, raped the bars, knocked the
wheels, tried her ut every point, and
couldn't find nothin'.
"And tried to think no more about
it, but the feeling was there all the
same, and do the best | could | wasn't
able to throw it off. "Well, we had got
pretty good distance in the mountains,
and with that light load 40 didn't
make nothin' of the up grades.
perhaps, gentlemen, you have never
been through the hills in winter. It's
some different from summer. | can tell
Yer. The mountains loom up dark and
solemn, and with their snow-cOvered
sides they seem kinder like big, gho>tly
giants that have been turned 10 stone
standing guard over the valley. The
silence and desOlation sorter awes one,
and it don't seem right to 90 shrieking
and screaming along their sides in the
dead o night. This time it was worse
than ever. The storm had let loose all
the evil spirits in the air. The wind
swept down the valley with a roar that
could be heard above the rush of the
train. 1t whistled and yelled at the
cab windows, and blew the rain and
sleet so hard agin the winder frame l
could scarcely see the short distance lit
by the headlight. The great trees
rocked to and fro and seemed to hold
out their arms in warning. 1t was a
solemn place for any one, and l felt it
particularly as had this awful weight
of anxiety ON my mind that had been
agrowin' stronger and stronger each
minute.
"Well, we had passed Bartlett's,
goin' through there at a pretty good
Jog, when ike flash of lightning the
parting words of my wife came back to
me: Be careful of that Frankenstein
trestler
THAT set me to thinkin'. Could this
be presentment of some disaster?
Was there anything the matter with the
bridge?
Nonsense, says /, I'm q natural
born fool. If anything was wrong the
train two hours ahead would have found
it out and signaled me at Bartlett's. III

THE EW.iN CONCERT.

The Evan Concert in this place on Mon
day night last, for the benefit of the Y. NJ.
G.. A., is pronounced in every particular a
decided success. The audience was large
and pleased-nobody disappointed, and the
proceeds reached a gratifying point. The
Messrs. S6etf, of Baltimore, sent, free Of
charge, under tbs supervision of their Gen
eral Travelling Agent, Mr.. Z. NJ Remsburg,
one of their Grand Pianos handsome, in
deed superb instrument Of full, bright.tone
and excellent touch, just such a Piano as
might be expected on an occasion like this
from an establishment Of such shigh;repute
as that Of the Messrs. Stieff.
We DO not know whether or not Miss
Minnie Evan was at her best-but her sing
inc Was the best that any Of our people who
have not enjoyed Jenny Lind or Patti have
heard Exquisite voice, charmingly cult
waited. As an illustration of the superiority
of Gods work over mans, we have recently
seen the statement that under powerful
glass the pointof aneedle appeared hyeinch-
Is thick, whilst the point Of q bees singer
could not be discerned. So the upper notes
of S.eif's Grand Piano, 50 to speak, gave
an audible chic, whilst the exquisite voice
ofMiss Minnie in its highest notes was so
iac, upward AMI onward, rs to be almost
beyond the capability Of the most acute ear

INDEPENDENCE in politics has always
been more or less intimately associated
with soreheadism or with idiocrasy. The
conventional /" independent seems bound
sooner or later to make ridiculous display
of his peculisrities. He is apt to be imprac-
ticable and conceited. If he is disgruntled
at the arrangement his partners have made
of the crockery in the party china shop bis
idea of procedure is to open the door and
turn in a mad bull to "reform things.
Some such reforming was done in Penn
sylvania last year. The independents !"
turned the democratic bull, Gov. Pattison,
into the republican warehouse and now
their chivalric leader and aspirant for in
dependent honors, Charles S. Wolfe, dis
gusted at the smashing and tearing round
of the crazy brute, turns tail and runs, de-
claring that he won't play politics any
longer. Mr.. Wolfe says he has had enough
of pulling democratic chestnuts out of the
fire. I'll do no more of that, and will not
serve bosses Of the republican party either.
! will simply go to the polls and vote. I'll
make speeches for nobody, and I'll vote as
please" The Boston Advertiser pertinently
remarks Mr.. Wolfe has become morbid,
we fear. Why does he vote and if he will
vote, why is he unwilling to advocate the
election of candidates for whom he is will.
ing to vote Going out of politics that
way is simply Sinking duty"

CHIEF-ExAMINER LYMAN meets the charge
that he was discharged from the army in
1868 with candid statement of the facts.
He had been promoted to second lieuten-
ancy in a Connecticut company and was inn
mediately assigned to the command of the
company. A father and son were members
of this company. The son died about the
time Lyman took command of the company,
aud the father was given permission to take
the body home. By the fathers request,
with the advice of the officers around him,
Lyman, who had had no opportunity to in
form himself as to army regulations, made
out the sons descriptive list, simply state
ment of the soldiers pay and clothing &C.
count, and sent it to the father. The
furnishing of descriptive list to an unau-
thorized person is violation Of army regula-
tions. When this list was presented to the
disbursing officer at Hartford he retained it,
and wrote to the war Office, recommending
Lyman's dismissal. He was dismissed and
although the secretary of war acknowledged
that the young officer was excusable, there
was so much looseness in regard to these pa
pers, he deemed it necessary to make an ex-
ample of Lieutenant Lyman. After the war
General Grant revoked the unjust order and
gave Lyman an honorable discharge. The
fault was on the side of the government in
holding to strict and arbitrary responsibility
young volunteer, upon whom it had sud-
denly thrust duties with which he had had
no opportunity to become familiar.

THE Cincinnati Commercial Gazette re-
ports from Harrodsburg, KY, that snow
that the evidence is all in, the feeling is
growing that Phil Thompson ought to be
tried for murder" "Ask," it says, "nearly
anybody not connected with the Thompson
family what he thinks, and he will whisper
in your ear that Little Phil ought to be
called to account, but for Gods sake he
will add, don't tell anybody said So"
The reason of this is that the Thompson
family are numerous and "quick on the
trigger" and would probably not brook hos
tile criticism, or, for that matter, hostile
verdict. They might not shoot man for
saying that Little Phil ought to be hanged,
but they would soon discover other reasons
for shooting him, and they would do it in
such way that it would not be cold-booded
murder either, but regular difficulty"
The great hindrance to Furnishing a certain
class Of murders in fact seems to be very
much the same in Kentucky as in Ireland,
and that is, part of the population sympa-
thize with the murderers and those who do
not are afraid to lei it be known.
