How They Buried the Woman Who Hal
Suffered So Much IN Life.
"She had the grandest funeral I ever
| saw" said Aunt Emily, as she threw
aside her Grape and united her bonnet.
She had just come from the sand hills,
| where, on the sunny southern slope,
that afternoon we had laid McGruders
| wife to rest.
~ remember well when Sarah mar
| ried McGruder," went on Aunt Emily;
'it is most twenty-five years ago. She
had a dozen beaux, believe, and could
have married any one of 'em, but she
chose John McGruder; and, to say the
least, we were all surprised"
"He never did much for her, eh?"
Sarah used to be very pretty, and
we all thought that she was so happy.
She was one of those women who
would take years of abuse and never
say word. He was drinking all the
time"
1T is sad"
"He seemed to prosper, too But he
was a man of stone. He used to let
the children run barefoot and half
naked. Once l went over there in the
without a fire and half starved, al.
though she never would acknowledge
it. 1t was pitiful to see her try to
make both ends meet. She used to do
her best to make her children look nice
and neat. We all wanted to help her,
but she was too proud"
"There are such women, aunty."
'He was too miserly to live half de-
Gently. During her last sickness, the
doctor called twice. She kept saying
She was getting better, in order,
know now, TO keep down the expense"
'She was buried to-day, aunty?'
''She was buried to-day. Land sakes,
it was the grandest funeral you ever
saw! There must have been hundred
dollars worth of roses and other ex.
pensive flowers out of season. He had
a wide Grape band on his hat. The
children all wore new clothes. There
was nearly half mile of hacks. The
casket must have been worth fully
three hundred dollars or more. There
were the grandest flowers in the
church you ever saw. The preacher
told all about her sweet home life and
of the great grief of the indulgent
husband, and then the music swept
forth sweet and low, saying as how
there was rest over there. l was sit
ting in the gallery, but no one saw me.
l couldn't help thinking if she could
only rise from the dead, / wonder what
she would say"
Have you ever met McGruder?-Onc
a Week.

But, alasl that woman's heart takes DER her

And that sentiment should govern her, instead

For the lads baptismal honors posted DER a
barber shop,
Proved barrier to his fortune, and to poverty
His uncle was o rover Of o bold, ambitious

For in Africa the genius of his strange I'D

But he scarce had viewed his triumph when o

And, the last and lone survivor of his race his

Was to nominate his nephew as his sole and

A STORY OF WAR TIMES.
The Capture and Execution of Two Con-
federate Spies.
HEADQUARTERS Posi-,
FRANKLIN, Tenn, June 9, 1853.


Last evening about sundown two
strangers rode into camp and called at
Col. .sBaird's headquarters, who present.
ed unusual appearances. They had on
citizens overcoats, federal regulation
pants and caps. The caps were covered
with white flannel havelocks. They
wore side arms, and showed high intel
ligence. One claimed to be a colonel in
the United States army, and called him
self Col. Austin; the other called him
self Maj. Dunlap, and both represent
ing themselves as inspector-generals of
the United States army. They repre-
sented that they were now out on an
expedition in this department inspect
ing the outposts and defenses, and that
day before yesterday they had been
overhauled by the enemy and lost their
coats and purses. They exhibited Off
cial papers from Gen. Rosecrans, and
also from the war department at Wash
ington, confirming the rank business
These were all right to Col Baird,
and at first satisfied him of their
honesty. They asked the colonel to
loan them fifty dollars as they had nd
coats and no money to buy them. Col.
Baird loaned them the money, and took
Col. Austin's note for it. just at dark
they started, saying they were going to
Nashville, and took that way. Just as
soo, as their horses heads We're turned
the thought of their being spies struck
Col Baird, he says, like thunderbolt,
ano he ordered Col. Watkins of the
Sixth Kentucky cavalry, who was
standing by, to arrest them Immediate
ly. But they We're going at lightning
speed. Col Watkins had no time to call
guard, and only with his orderly to
set out on the chase. He ordered the
orderly to unsling his cRrbine, and it,
when he (the coloneD hailed them, they
showed any suspicious motions, to fire
on them without waiting for an order
| They were overtaken about one-third
of mile from here. Col. Watkins tolc
them that Col. Baird wanted to make
| some further inquiries of them, anG
asked them to return.
This they politely consented to do,
after some remonstrance on account OF
| the lateness of the hour and the dis
tance they had to travel, and Col. Wat
kins led them to his tent, where ht
| placed a strong guard over them. 1
was not until one Of them attempted t.
pass the guard at the door that they
