are making preparation to urge their
claims for recognition upon tho new
President. There is something about
the behavior of the Office seeker that
reminds one Of young birds. Hos tho

portunity and time to study the habits
of birds, ever seen n mother bird bring
home to her nest full Of half starved
young ones, an occasional large fat

serve how willing each fedgling was to
swallow the grub, hide and hair. so to
speak. The resemblance between
batch Of hungry politicians at Washing.
on. and a nest full of ravenous md
qunrrelsome young birds is very strik-
ing. The birds are either unable or un-
willing to fly out and pick up q living
for themselves outside of the nest.
With most of the applicants for Federal
patronage, the hubit Of depending on the
panty for grub has become chronic.
Those applicants do not intend to fly
out of the nest and pick up q living.
They prefer to remain inside of the

grub.
In tie Spring. Washingt on City will

can open it's mouth has TO be seen and
measured to be realized. Some of the
birds appear to be all mouth, except nh
insufficient supply of tail feathers. No
wonder the average American President
is puzzled to know into which particu-
lar cavern to drop the worm.
The applicants for position under the
coming President should remember that
the number of birds is largely in excess
of the number of Federal grubs, and
consequently each bird cannot have a

Your Children

Are constantly exposed to danger from
Colds, Whooping Cough, Group, and
diseases peculiar to the throat and
lungs. For such ailments, Ayers
Cherry Pectoral, promptly admins
tered, affords speedy relief and cure.
As remedy for Whooping Cough,
with which many Of our children were
afflicted, we used, during the past win
ter, with much satisfaction, Ayers
Cherry Pectoral. For this affection, we
consider this preparation the most efh-
cacious of all the medicines which have
come to our knowledge. Mary Park
hurst, Preceptress, Home for Little
Wanderers, Doncaster, Md.
My children have been peculiarly sub
ject to attacks of Group, and failed to
find any effective remedy until l COM
menced administering Ayers Cherry
Pectoral. This preparation relieves the
difficulty of breathing and invariably
cures the complaint. David G. Starks,
Chatham, Columbia Co., N. Y.
have used Ayers Cherry Pectoral
in my family for many years, and
have found it especially valuable in
Whooping Cough. This medicine allays
all irritation, prevents Inflammation from
extending to the lungs, and quickly sub
dues any tendency to Lung Complaint.
j. b. Wellington, Plainville. Mich.
I find no medicine so effective, for
Group and Whooping Cough, as Ayers
Cherry Pectoral. It saved the life of my

him safely through the worst case of
Whooping Cough l ever saw. .-J Jane

the capture of the whole party, and to this

resolved itself! We had been told that to
fall into the enemy's power was inevita-
BILE death, and we had no reason to doubt
it. Nothing in our treatment was of such
a nature as to inspire us with hope. We
were chained and tied in barbarous fash
ion, and confined in the most loathsome
dungeons, dark, filthy, and often under
ground, in Dalton, Marietta and else
where. Our food was of the coarest and
most scanty character. We were assured

CHAPTER XIV.

HUNTED IN THE WOODS BY DOGS AND MEN.
Dispersed in the woods with no knowl-
edge of the country, and no guide toward
our own lines; with the alarm spreading
in every direction, and the hearts OF the
people on fire with fierce resentment be-
cause of the desperate character OF our
raid, the prospect of escape for any OF our
number was slight indeed. The south
was also better prepared for hunting
down fugitives than any other people
could have been where slavery was not
an established institution. Tracking men
over hills and mountains was no novelty;
and now for scores Of miles in every d.
rection from Chattanooga roads and fer
ries were guarded, cavalry galloped along
the roads, and the planters with their
packs of negro hunting dogs explored
every wood. Unfortunately, too, q ready
mode of identifying any member Of the
band who might be captured was soon
discovered On the way south we had
represented ourselves as from Fleming
county, Ky. This story was still con-
tinued. The first arrests were made the
very same day so close to the train that
after this story had been told the men
We're positively traced back to the train,
and then MI who gave the same story were
known to lClOng to us.
We expected to die as soon as captured;
and there wUs degree of evaporation
which rendered the risk of instant shoot
! i,l,g or ll@DEi;g very great. But there was
also Gc:,:rc or further investigation and
| discovery witch would be cut short by a
sudden Staying of the victim, and this
operated to bridge over the first furious
moment of capture, but did not prevent
the most fearful threats, and in one case
! that of Parrott-a fearful beating. II
! also led to riSor of claiming and confine-
! ment almost unparalleled.

PEOPLE AND EVENTS.

Ex-Judge James Campbell, who was
postmaster general during the admins
tration of President Pierce, is very ill at
his residence in Philadelphia.
Master Workman Powderly is slowly
imroved and steadily gaining strength.
He denies the report that lie Intends
going TO Florida.
Emperor William says that the worst
fears regarding the condition of his son,
the crown prince, have passed.
Miss Phoebe Couzins and John NJ.
Glover are candidates for gubernator-
Ial nomination in Missouri. After a
while the Republicans will name real
man for the place.
Campbell Wallace, chairman of the
Georgia railroad commission, is SO wears
old, and and boasts that be has been a
Democrat all his life. He is old enough
to know better.
JoelParker, the Democratic ex-gover-
nor of New Jersey, who died Monday,
weighed 800 pounds, and there is little
doubt that his death was fastened by
his enormous appetite. He always
gratified his tastes to the uttermost, and
never stopped to inquire whether an
article of food was good for him or not.
He was the wonder of the walters at
every hotel and restaurant where he
dined. He invariably went twice
through the bill of fare. He was the
last to finish at dinner, yet 80 admir-
able seemed his digestion that after out
eating all the other guests he could
make a capital speech, full of unctuous
humor and sound common sense. He
drank very little, water being bis favor
ite beverage, and therefore his head was
always clear, even If bic stomach was
overloaded.
Miss Jessie Green, of Chattanooga,
one OF the victims of the recent railaoad
accident in Kentucky, proved herself q
heroine in q simple but remarkable
way. When the surgeon came to her
side she begged him to give bis atten-
ton elsewhere, saying: PLEASE leave
me and go to those who are less hurt
and for whom something may be done.

MR. CLEyELAHD's friend from Texas
who was pu; in charge Of the ways and
means committee, and consequently var
tual leader OF the majority, does not
seem TO assume the Office OF dictator very
gracefully. In fact, Mr.. Mills ATTEMPT
as a leader is sorry failure-for the
very good reason that his party assOei-
ates won't lead. He was completely
crushed Friday in an attempt TO whip
the majority into line, the Randallites
taking their first opportunity TO test his
strength, which resulted In an ignomin-
Gus defeat for Mr.. Mills. The Republic
cans were very happy To assist ia the lit
tie family disturbance. and looked upon
Mr.. Mills pertnrbed spirits with delight.
Even Democrats with the same tariff
ideas as Mr. Mills have not relished Mr..

novice, and no leader was ever more

give us a better opportunity TO organize
our plans The brakes of the tender were
put on still more to diminish speed, and
the reversal was made, Here is slight
conflict Of authority. The pursuers say
that the brakes were not loosed again; but
our engineers are equally positive that
they were. It Is not material, for the re-
suit is the same. The steam power was Sc
low, that though the engine moved back
It was with moderate velocity, and l saw
the pursuers reverse also, and coming to q
full stop, whistle two or three times as II
approached-a seeming whistle Of alarm,
though there was little in the approach OF
our poor General to fear; and then they
moved slowly before It for short distance
till the two were in contact, when the
weaker stopped and the steam was shut
off. The great railroad chase was oyerl
