Good night, my sweet one, he said,
And lingering kiss he threw.
Then through the lawn ne sped
And quickly lost 10 view.
But her father had watched II all,
And an awful swear he swore
As he took his gun from the wall
And through the bushes tore.
And the lover unconsciouSly
Walked TO the garden gate;
He thought of his sweet Marie
Who SoOn would be- his mate.
Then he felt grip on his pants
And he heard fathers breath,
Like flash he was over the fence
Aud escaped certain death.
But his coat he left on the fence,
And his pants in the bull dogs jaws,
And aS he hurried thence
lie simply said: Good Laws.
Tomorrow I'll 90 10 the sale
At J. NJ. Knote's bargain store
And buy suit without fail
For the suit that the bull dog tore.
When Marie saw him next day
In his elegant five dollar clothes.
She threw him kiss cross the way
And loved him more for his woes.

cause we arc in no hurry to resume. We
propose to wait until the men come to us

come business necessity for us to ask them

ule of last year, which they have not yet
seen fit to accept" Notwithstanding the

pected that settlement of the difficulties
will be reached to-duy. 1t is stated that a
great number of the poorer men with fam
lilies are anxious 10 return to work, and
that little opposition will be made by the
other strikers.

Mr.. Dulany's Tender of Coupons.
tor Of The Alexandria Gazette:

To the editor OF The Alexandria Gazette:
In your last issue you mention the fact of II.
Grafton Dulany having rendered coupons to the
Treasurer Of Shenandoah county for his State
taxes. In explanation it is well to state that
these coupons were clipped from Mr.. Dulany'
own bonds, purchased during his minority by his
trustees, from the State, at par the proceeds
being duly used in building public improvements
now intact, and used for the public veal. At the
call Of his State In 1871 Mr. DIS bonds
funded. ho receiving one.third Of his debt in
West Virginia certificates, which were practically
worthless. Again in 1879 he funded his g per
cent consols into 3 per cent. 1O-4Os thereby re-
lievipg his State of onc.half the interest. AL
though sojournng out OF his State he pays upon
and is assessed by the State upon all his real and
personal property here, and his State taxes alone
amount to nearly 81 900. Mr.. Dulany thinks he
has done all that duty or patriotism requires and
refuses to fund his bonds, which have stood the
test of the highest court in the land at discount
of 40 per cent, int bond without security, and
to pay his taxes in money, when he holds the
obligations of the State stamped upon their face
receivable for all taxes and dues duo tho State"
The State makes the issue with Dulany, and not
he with the State. A. II.

THURSDAY EVENING, MAY ID.

THERE Is not a right thinking and patri-
otto man in the country who lent in favor
of real, bona fide civil service reform. But
there is no doubt OF the fact that such re-
form as is now practiced is not only alto
gether unjust to the men of the party IN
mower. to nine.tenths of the people of the
country, and to all the men whose lot was
cast in the South before the war, hut that 1t
is positively degrading to the spl''t OF Amer
lean citizenship, and tends to make the OIL
GERS of the Government serVlle class,
afraid even to express their thoughts. A
case in point was mentioned in the GAZETTE
last week, in which member OF the Vlr-
pinia democratic association of Washington
resigned his membership Of that organiza-
ton, lest his failure to do so might be the
cause of his losing his office.

who was crushed BY falling shed. Ac'
counts from various places in Illinois repre-
sent the storm to have been terrific, and
much damage is reported.
CINCINNATI, May 13.-There is no tele.
graphic communication with Xenia and
Dayton, but from the railroad officials it is
assertained that the water fell so rapidly
that the culvert under the railroad choled
up creating an immense reservoir, which
finally broke the embankmenL and rush
ed through Xenia tearing down trees
and washing away houses. Twenty
persons are reported to be killed and a
large number injured. A fearful wind blew

H. L. VILLEE's CAsE.--Some attention
has been attracted In Washington by the
case of the dismissal of II. L. Villee from

came from Virginia with Mrs. Hayden and
applied for rooms with Mrs. Buford, 100 @

second husband was Mr.. Hayden, now

lives in Marietta, Pa. A communication,
numerously signed by citizens Of Marietta,
gives information very damaging to Viilee's

MURDEROUs ASsAULT-On Tuesday night
last an attempt was made by negro man
to murder the Rev. w. G. Hall, pastor of
the Four-Mile Creek Baptist church, in
Henrico county, and his wife. Mr.. Hall
and wife had retired for the night, when
some one knocked at the front door. Mr..
Hall arose, and, opening the door, found a
heavy built negro on the front porch. He
asked the man what he wanted, but with
out replying the negro struck Mr.. Hall with
club, Telling him to the floor. He then
entered the chamber and attacked Mrs.
Hall with club, striking her several blows
on the head The negro's purpose was rob-
berry. The lives of the minister and his
wife were saved by the GOODNESS of Maggie
Hall, little twelve year old granddaughter
of the old couple, who occupied q room over
where the old people slept. She and her
brother arrived at the farm house in the
afternoon, and when the attack was made
upon their grandparents were fast asleep.
The cries of Mr.. Hall aroused the
girl, who sprang out of bed, jumped out
of the window to the ground below,
and ran to the farmhouse of Mr. Graves
half mile away Mr.. Graves and two
colored farm hands fastened to Mr.. Halls
relief The minister and his wife were
found insensiDle and in critical condition.
Mr.. Halls injuries consist of broken collar
bone and confused wound on the head.
Mrs. Halls injuries are principally wounds
on her head, and she is thought to be in q
critical condition. Mr.. Hall is 70 years old.
A posse of citizens are out searching for the
negro, and if found he may be summarily
dealt with.
