pistols, but as he pushed onward to-
ward the Ohio river he found that both
travelling and living in a prosperous
country were far more expensive than
travelling and living in war desolated
and still .moneyless Virginia.
His little store of funds leaked out of
his pockets so fast that, economic as
be might, he found it necessary to ask
for work here and there on his jour-
ney. It was springtime, and the farm
ers were glad enough to employ him
for a day or two each. The wages
were meager enough, but Duncan ac-
cepted them gladly, the more so be-
cause the farmers in every case gave
him board besides. Now and then he
secured odd jobs as an assistant to me-
chanics. In one case he stocked the fur
naces of coal mine for a week.
But he did not remain long in any
employment. AS soon as he had a
trifle of money or a little stock of pro-
visions to the good he moved onward
toward the river.
His one dominating and ever grow
ing purpose was to reach Cairo. What
fortune might await him there he knew
not at all, but since he had scratched
that address on the butt of pistol the
desire to reach Cairo had daily and
hourly grown upon him until it was
now almost a passion. The name
Cairo" in his mind had become q
synonym for Opportunity"

OLD Whist Terms,

The following passage is from the
Adventurer, No. 3d., March 6, 1853:
ION Sunday last terrible fire broke
out at Lady Brags, occasioned by the
following accident: Mrs. Overall, the
housekeeper, having lost three rubbers
at whist running without holding a
swabber Notwithstanding she had
changed chairs, furzed the cards and or
dered Jenny, the footboy, to sit cross
legged for good luck), grew out of all
patience and, taking up the devils
books, as she called them. flung them
into the fire, and the flames spread to
the stewards room.''
Swabbers are the ace of hearts, the
knave Of clubs and the ace and the
deuce Of trumps at whist. To furz or
fuzz is to shuttle the cards very care
fully or to change the pack.-London

The color Of a cloud depends on the
manner in which the sunlight falls upon
it and the position Of the observer. It
will be noticed that high clouds are al

is because the light by which they are

rain clouds, on the other hand, are

CHAPTER ".

Ut was a truly terrible tramp that
the young man had before him,
but he did not shrink. So long as
4 his provisions lasted he pushed
forward, stopping only in the wood
lands or by the wayside for sleep and
for eating. BY the time that his pro-
visions were exhausted he had passed
the valley and had crossed the crest

which men Of every class seemed to be
reasonably prosperous and hard at
work.
There, by way of replenishing his
commissariat, he sold the saddle he
lightened his load.
Fortunately it was specially good

otherwise decorated to please the fan

whose dead horse Duncan had cap
tured it after it's owner had been left
stark upon the field in the Wilderness

money, and to this the purchaser gen
erously added a little store Of pro-
visions, including, for immediate use,
some fresh meat, the first that had
passed Duncan's lips for more months
past than he could count upon the fin
gers of one hand.
A little later the young man sold his

Tenni. and Lawn Tennis.

There are thousands who imagine
that tennis and lawn tennis are identi-
cal. In America tennis, the mother
game, is always known as court ten
mis-, whereas lawn tennis is gener-
ally known as "tennis." The games
are in many respects very diff
ferent. The court, which in lawn
tennis is open, in tennis is closed
at the back and sides by the walls, and
almost invariably above by a roof.
There is considerable amount of play
of the back and side walls. The balls
are harder than lawn tennis balls, be-
ing, in fact, of the consistency of
cricket balls. Hence the rackets are
heavier and the gut is thicker.-Fry' IS

stored Union will be the only represent
alive left of those principles for which
we have so manfully battled during
the last four years-the principles of
liberty and equal rights and local self
government
At that moment the young mans
horse encountered a huge bowlder that
had rolled down from the mountain
side, completely blockading the path.
With the spirit and the training that
war service had given him the animal
stopped not nor stayed. He approach
ed the obstacle with a leap or two and
then with mighty effort vaulted over it.
Good for you, Bob!' cried the young
man. 'That's the way to meet obsta-
cles, and that's the way am resolved
to meet them"
But the poor horse did not respond.
He hobbled on three legs for a space.
His master, dismounting, found that
he had torn loose a tendon of one leg
: In the leap.
There was no choice but to drive a
bullet into the poor beasts brain by
way of putting him out of his agony.
Thus was Guilford Duncan left upon
the mountain side, more desolate and
helpless than before, with no posses
sions in all the world except a pair of
pistols, a saddle, a bride, a side of
bacon, a peck of cornmeal and a few
ounces of salt.
The valley lay before him in all its
barrenness. Beyond that lay hundreds
Of miles of Allegheny mountains and
the region farther on.
All this expanse he must traverse ON
foot before arriving at that great river
highway, by means Of which he hoped
to reach his destination, thousand
miles and more farther still to the
west. But the new manhood had been
born in Guilford Duncan's soul, and
he was no more appalled, by the diff
cult problem that he must face than he
had been by the fire of the enemy
when battle was on. lizard work." he

Swapping his saddle and bride on
his back, he took his bacon and bis
salt bag in one hand and his bag of
meal in the other. Thus heavily bur
dened he set out on foot down the
mountain.
AT any rate my load will grow
lighter" he reflected, "every time I
eat, and I'll sell the saddle and bride
at the first opportunity. I'll make the
Ohio river in spite of all.'

Meanwhile he had given the horse a
dozen ears of corn, saying:
"Reckon 'twon't hurt him. He don't

hearty, an reckon a dozen ears won't
founder him.
For dinner there were scanty piece
of bacon, boiled with wild mustard
plants for green's, and some pones of
corn bread.
To Guilford Duncan in his starving
condition this seemed a verita BILE feast.
The eating of it so far refreshed him
that he cheerfully answered all the
questions put to him by his shirt
