FULLERTCN'S BLUFF.
BY WILLIAM c. Hill.

Mrs. Fullerton looked with pleas
ure expressed in her beaming eyes.
Hers Eas a tranquil life. No cares
save those of the dairy, to trouble her;
nothing in the way like sorrow, but a
continual joy in the sight Of her rud-
dy sons and graceful daughters
growing up so fast around her. Her
eyes reverted to her husband absorb
ed in his toll, and unconsciously she
blessed the Lord for the many bene-
fits He had bestowed upon them.
Then her eyes wandered over the
landscape. ltwaa early i'll the spring
and the sun was just setting behind
the western pines, throwing ruddy
shafts of light upon the scene. There
fields had not been ploughed as yet
that spring except their little garden,
and in many places the blackened
stumps yet stood where lately the
oak and chestnut had hourlshed.
Their half dozen COWS and heifers
were in state of serious meditation
in the narrow lane beyond the barn,
and the geese were enjoying an even
ing bath i'll the little pond at which
the stock were accustomed to drink.
She looked on and over the edge
of the cliff and on to the far away
mountains purple aud indistinct IN
the distinct, with the exception of
those walls which devoid Of trees
cleaned and glistened IN the distinct
like pearls in purple setting. The
clouds were of that tender tint and
texture which is always present in the
spring Of the year and hoated in long
Iow-lying stretches from horizon to
horizon. In the middle distance
flowed the silvery Tennessee, with
many coil, bending back on itself
like a white serpent winding sinuous-
ly through valley. There were but
few scattered dwellings in the vast
domain OF wood, excepting the little
county seat at her feet. with its prin-
cipal attraction, the court house hedg-
ed in by other buildings. 1t seemed
so strange to see her fellow men
passing and re-passing a thousand
feet below her and no sound to break
the stiffness. II seemed ghOstly and
unreal, a medium between two
worlds, the real by her side and the
unreal on the tar away horizon
Though it was unreal and ghostIy, il
was surely an emblem Of their secur-
lty and their independence on men

home some little distance, when q
new idea seemed to strike him and
turning back to the store he YEARLY
dismounted again. He had consid-
cradle sum of money in his pocket at
the time, and with part of it he pur-
chased some household supplies, CIV
ing orders that they should be taken
upon the mule by some or other to
his place on the mountain, and said
chat as he had some business to trans
act he would return later. "A stern
resolve had filled his heart. He
would never be the bearer of such
tidings to his wife. He would go to
st. Louis where he had influence and
seek employment after which he
would send for his family and they
would again be united. Such was
his resolve as he sadly turned down
tbs dusty road to walk to the nearest
railway station.
Six months passed. No tidings
had yet reached them of the husband
and father. Mrs. Fullerton hau dis
covered her brothers treachery and
the household was filled with gloom.
She went about her duties with an
indifferent step, not with that inter-
ested enthusiasm she had experienced
before. She had exhorted the 9TH
ers to courage but had failed in her
own. Still she labored with the 9TH
ers, and as it was harvest time they
were in the cornfeld.
1t was one of those pleasant after
Moons Ill late autumn when every
thing is bathed in a halo of glory.
The very trees have donned special
garments for the occasion and field
and forest are glow. The sun is
half yelled by soft, creamy clouds,
which hardly vouchsafe to move their
lazy lengths across the sky, The
songs Of birds are hushed, all, except
ing the boding whistle of wild geese
silhouetted in wavering flight against
the sky. The very insects underfoot
feel the magic spell and chlrp but
mournfully from the dried grasses.
Nature is going to sleep, and these
are her drowsy characteristics.
They were in the cornlield break
ing the dried ears and shucks from
the cracking stalk, and throwing
them into an ox-cart whIc1 was slow
ly preceding them, when they were
startled by wild halloO from that
corner of the vine covered fence
where the county road turned off,
1t was one Of their neighbors, who
in passing by had brought up letter
to them, which had been in the office
several days,
Mrs. Fullerton hastily opened it.
A bapknote of considerable value
dropped out but she hardly noticed
1t. The letter was from her hus-
band, he was not dead and all was
explained. He sent her money to
sacrifice everything and come to him.
All the heart and pans which
they endured slnca the time of his
departure were over. His position
was excellent, he had friends, and
was prosperous. That the family
were happy that night is beyond
question.
In month the place was deserted,
The log house i'll which they had
spent SO many happy days was closed
The weeds are now growing ram

butter brought the best price IN the
growing market town and county
seat below. A few years had made
a wonderful change and civilization
was extending it's mellowing induen-
ces in every direction.
Mr.. Fullerton was in the habit of
going down the mountain for his
mail, once a week, on which day he
was to be seen riding into town with
great grey linen ,duster adjoining
his gaunt form and wide sombrero
Tapping in the gentle motion which
the easy gong mule impaired to his
dreaming master. Mr.. Fullerton on
this particular morning wore a quiet
ly unconscious air and hardly noticed
the salutations which swere extended
to HIM from the people he met in his
progress. Truly it was grotesque
sight-that long, grey buster and an
tiquated hat, and the. sandy colored
mule with the widely tapping ears,
which ever and anon raised up It's
voice in tuneful appeal to the other
mules it met, and it was all done so
unconsciously as to render the effect
the more laughable,
The train stopped before the post
office, which was a long, low build
ing with lofty facade IN front and
sodden roof behind. THE mail had
just arrived, and the carrier, a
shock headed boy of fifteen or more,
was extended at full length upon the
counter. For the post-otfice was al
so a country store or trading place,
and u careless crowd of gaunt and
wild looking mounLaineerS and trap
pers were curlously peering through
the varions partitions of the mail box
es upon the post master, as he, with
greatest difficulty, declphered the
different superscriptions. But no
one appeared to be In hurry and &f-
ter a while the ordeal was over. In
his turn Mr.. Fullerton received sim
gle letter, with the name of a bank
ing house prominent in finarc ial cir.
cles in Virginia, engraved upon the
left hand corner. He trembled as he
took it, and vague feeling of fear
entered his breast, a fear he had new
er felt before and bresentlment of
coming evil. He opened it and set
tied his glasses back over hisl eyes
III order<to read it the better. One
glance was sufficient. In cold and
formal language it acquainted him of
the fact that his bank, the bank in
which he had'plaoed his all had sus-
pended payment; that the cashier,
his wlfe's brother, had absconded
with all the immediate funds in sight
and had left large aTearages.
1t stunned HIM. For twenty
years he had never received such q
blow. His head panied hun and he
felt faint Then he thought of his
beloved wife and children up on the
mountain, and mconsciously he look,
ed in that direction. How could he
tell her of her brothers periidy,
How tell her that their struggle,
