Swindl1ng Green Farmers.
Philadelphia Record.

Manyunsuspecting farmers in Bucks
and Huntingdon Counties have been
swindled out of dollars recently by
a clever scheme. worked by a gang of
gentlemanly-appearing sharpers.
One of the gang drives up to a farm
er's house and requests permission to
store nthebarnanumbero
ofinterior quality. Permission being
granted, the farmer is told that the
forks comprise the last lot of large
consignment, and will besold at very
low figures in order to close q tram
saction. A tempting offer is then
made of 20 per cent. commission to
the farmer upon any sales made while
the forks are temporarily in his charge
and a long agreement, most of (which
is in fine print, and alleged to he on
ly q stipulation as to commission is
in most cases then signed by the
tempted tiller ofthe soil, who neglects
to read the paper carefully, and learns
when too late, that he has contracted
to buy the worthless forks at an ex-
orbitant figure.

NEW YORK, April 30.-The town woke up
more sleepily this morning than it did yes
terday and with good reason. There was no
real necessity for it to get up SO early. It
was too cold, perhaps, for those who shiver
In q light wind, but it was q morning to de-
light the heart OF a soldier who has q long
tramp before him. The air was exhilarat-
ing in the extreme and the win was sharp
enough to soon pat a tinge Of bloom on the
cheeks Of those who faced it. Services were
held in all the churches of the city of every
denomination, votive masses being offered
up in the Catholic churches at which special
prayers We're held. The principal services
were at 81. Paul church in Broadway, where

Morphy Beat Satan.

In the autumn of 1861. Morphy,
then on his way to the Confederate
army near Manassas, was invited by
the Rev. R. r. Harrison, of Richmond,
to spend the evening with a number
of other distinguished guests at his
residence. After supper, while they
were assembled in the parlors, atten-
ton was called to u colored engrav-
ing entitled "Jen d'Echecs," which
was hanging in the room. 1t repre-
sented Satan, in style and dress af-
ter the German idea of Mephisto-
pheles, engaged in a game of chess
with a young man. The board lay
on q tomb, and the guardian angel
of the youth looked down with sad
ness and interest upon the position
of the pieces on the board. The
young mans pieces represented the
manly virtues, and many of them
had already been captured. Satan's
pieces represented the tempting vices.
The position of the engraving was
one that had often been studied with
care by the Richmond players, and
the young mans game was regarded
as hopeless. The position was set up
in Morphy's presence, and he asked il
the position vas correct. After care
full comparison of the position on the
board and in the engraving, he was
answered in the affirmative. Morphy
then remarked, in his quiet but al
ways dignified manner, that he be-
lieved he could take theyoung mans
position and win the game. All
those who knew anything OF chess
expressed surprise, but Morphy vim
Dictated his belief in a short time.
He took the young mans game and
played against each gentleman in
succession and won. The devil had
no chance against the genius of Paul

Sailing o TenderfOOt.

AdOzen years ago, whenEastern ten
derfoot capitalists were as thick as
blackberries in the West, and every
single man Of them was ready to buy
a silver mine before breakfast, four of
us who had jumped an old claim in
Nevada put up a job to catch asuck-
er. We went down about twelve feet
with a shaft, struck Indications"
and then raked and scraped forspeci-
mems to "salt" with. We sold our re-
volvers and when We had the bait
ready not n of us could spare, and
when we had the bait ready not one
OF us could have put up enoughmoney
to pay a weeks board in advance.
We placed u figures ut $4,000,
and as l was the smoothest talker of
the quartet l was selected as the spid-
er to walk the fly into our parlor. I
went up to Virginia City, and, after
a couple of days, I got hold of u Bos-
ton man. He was not only green,
but powerful anxious to be taken in.
He was loaded down with money.
and overlooking with confidence.
Our first conversation ran about as
follows:
"Are you looking for an investment
in mining property"
II am sir. Have you any thing in
that line?"
"Yes, sir. Town q one-fourth interest
in a claim which We believe to be very
rich"
"One fourth? Oh, I want the whole
thing. 1 don't want no partners in
this enterprise"
"But Ithinkyoucanbuy all o~fusout.
THAT alters the CASE" I'll looks at
your claim and make you an Offer"
l took him out there. I don't be-
leive he knew the first thing about ore.
but he decended the shaft, looked
around a bit, and when we had haul
ed him up he said:
doesn't seem to be overly rich, but
I'll chance it. III give you &c., 900
cash for your right, title, and inter
est"
We closed on that, broke our necks
to get out of the country before any
climax came. The old chap was the
butt ofridicule for several weeks, but
people then began to laugh the other
way. He got men and machinery to
work, sunk three or four shafts, and
inside of a year he took over $780,.
600 worth of ore out of that claim
Inside of three years he took outh hal
a million, and then sold to syndicate
for double that sum. Imet him after
he had drawn $780, 900 in Denver
and he held out his hand and said
"Why, my dear man, Pm glad tc
see you. Have often wondered where
you went to. It was apity youpool

O city sitting by the seal
How proud the day that dawned on thee.
When the new era, long desired, began,
And in its need the hour had found the man!
One thought the cannon salvos spoke;
The resonant bell-tower's vibrant stroke.
The voiceful streets, the plaudit-echoing halls.
And PRAYER and hymn borne heavenward from
st. Paul's!
How felt the land in every part
The STRONG throb of a nations heart,
As it's great leader gave. with reverent awe,
His pledge to union, liberty and law!
That pledge the heavens above him heard,
That VOW the sleep of centuries stirred;
In world wide wonder listening peoples bena

CHAPTER VII.
A BRIEF TRIUMPH.

A black night, the dark waters, the tall
smoke-stacks from which sparks occasion
ally rolled in showers, all tended to give an
awful solemnity to the scene. The awe-in-
spring silence of those thousands of blue
coats was intensified by an occasional
whisper.
One by one the lights of Cairo went out
like the bright hopes of life, and Luke
stood gazing upon the silent statue-hke
forms of the soldiers, who were sitting in
rows upon the deck Growing tired of re-
naming in one place, he went to the bow.
Here stood a solitary man, with the shoul-
der-straps of General, his arms folded
across his breast, his eyes fixed on the
river IL was so dark that his features
were hardly recognizable, and he did not
know him until he turned and said:
"Young man, you are likely to see some
service" He recognized him now as Gen.
eral Grant.
"Yes, General; 1 came for that bust
ness"
The General again relapsed into silence,
and stood gazing down into that impenetra-
ble darkness into which the boat was plung-
ing.
Luke would have very much liked to ask
General Grant some questions, but that
strange, silent man, leading an army to
battle, was not easily approached. Hestood
and gazed for some time on that immova-
bic, sphinx like figure, seeming to gain
strength and con fidence from his very ST.
lence. Feeling himself to be an intruder he
returned to his company.
The boats were compelled to travel very
slowly owing to the fog and intense dark
IL ..,-l.~
came from the cabin where some of the Off
GERS were, and told Luke they were going
to Belmont.
"We don't dare tackle Columbus, it's too
strong"
But Columbus is not far from Belmont,
may they not reinforce the rebels therel"
asked Luke.
"We'n lick thunder out o. 'em afore they
kin do that"
The veteran of the Belmont expedition
who may chance to read this narrative
will here recall some of the emotions which
thrilled his own soul as he found himself
drifting down the dark river, knowing full
well that the morrow would bring death
struggle.
1t was the intention to take Belmont by
surprise, and but for the fog and intense
darkness they would have succeeded; but
owing to not being able to see where to
land, the transports were forced to beat
about until daylight, when they ran in Tn
der the banks, gang planks were thrown
out, and the Decentralization commenced.
The first man whom Luke saw go ashore
was that silent man of iron, whose very
presence seemed to inspire the men with
confidence. He led his horse off the gang
plank and up the steep muddy bank, where
he waited for the troops
"Fall in" commanded the Colonel.
Company E, fall in,'' commanded Cap
tain Mason, and in a moment every man
was in line. Some of them as they went
ashore were making breakfast of crack
ers, which was to be their last meal
Luke's company at last began to file down
the narrow stairway to the boiler deck, and
to climb up the muddy bank The shore
