A dark and scowling day in the sum- mer of 1879. The clouds trAiIed low over the Cumberland, and the wind moaned in the pines like the ulluhu-ulluhu of 3 banshee.
 Mrs. Rhea reclined in an easy chair at her window. looking out at the dreary and diversified landscape before her. A horseman came tearing up the pike and, leaping to the ground, he hurried up the walk and rapped at the door. Mrs. Rhea ran and threw it open. Mrs. Rhea, yer husban' hes be'n- ben hurt'p@"
 Without waiting to hear more, without
 waiting to put on her bonnet, she fairly flew down the garden-valk, and down the pike, past the grain 6elds, to the store.

Music by the B and
lPeck Sun.l


 Oshkosh is bound to fill her churches on the Sabbath in one way or another If the word, eloquently rendered in choice English, with appropriate genuaexions by the best talent liberal salary pro cures, will not do it, they propose to try the virtue of music, which "soothes the savage breast Comp don't make this wori "beast.') The churches there have already good choirs and sonorous organs, of course, but they have become an old story, and the trustees think some choice orchestral music would kindle anew the enthusiasm felt before the great fire" and eventually bring many sinners t. repentance.
 To that end the First Congregational church people have engaged the services of the Asion orchestra to accompany the singing and fill in the spare time with choice selections from Wagner, Often bach and other musicists, and the resul; of the experiment is looked forward to with much interest on both sides of the Atlantic and as far north as Alaska. Osh- kosh's rival, Fond du Lac, will not be found lacking in this matter, and will also soon present bible truths sandwiched l III UCtWC%u GuOiNC itbht OtCa0 IONNtS Oi harmony, with reasonable amount of mustard in the shape of prayer.
 This should ensure drawing full houses every Sunday, and probably will, for some time. It will be quite " lum-t -tum, !" and considerably toot, toot. The violin, piccolo and harp can climb along the upper register in chase of the bewitching soprano {; the ciariopet, flute and second fiddle can meander back. and forth in company with the handsome contralto :; the cornet. hewgag and kettle-drum can get m their work simultaneously with the blonde tenor, while the violonceiio, bas- soon, trombone and big drum seek to drown out the way-down notes Of the portly and dark -complexioned basso pro- fundo. Meanwhile the good. devout old organ, mute with suprise, will stand back in the recess weeping bitter tears of indig. nation and modification that "Othello's occupation's gose," unless they should considerably allow it to come in occa- sionally when they want to shake up the | building little. It is not stated how the orchestra is to be paid, whether by vol untary contribution at so much per- formapce, or by a per cent. of the col lections; but the latter is probably the way, and if so, no nickels or pennies should be received. If an overture, a good, short sermon, two or three prayers, reading chapter of the bible, several hymns with orchestral accompaniment, one or two instrumental solos, with or without encores, and grand /sgge as the audience disperses, isn't worth any mans half dollar, children bet~een four and ten years half price children in arms free, that man had better stay away.

With a cry of mingled rage, pathos and despair, the old man sprang to his feet, and then fell back on the lounge and buried his wan, wrinkled face in both of his hands.
