?Hallo!" said he, 'You'ro j??at in tune;
^ujare wanted p*&0&*. r,mda to-l,i?ht!"
w_ i ^-?rtjrtnj-the voice of a ruffian,
..iuhii.' *i tifood.quite 'sttil. ;ynl .strove to show
l?iti by my muuner th.it I wus ublb to protect
myself.
"What the deuce am I wanted at the cross
roads fori"' said I, ''Unless I choose, it will
he a very hard matter to get me there V
? ^- 'Hut instead of producing a pistol ami do
?nandiug my monuy or my life, the man an
swered iu an altered tone.
"Beg pardon, I made a mistake. I thought
it was my brother,- and I wanted to frighten
htm. Bad night sir,"
"Very," said I.
"You don't know the time, sir?" he asked.
"It was seven when I left the train at
I?-I said,
Thank yo, sir," said the man. "Good
night/'
'?'Good uight," said I.
If his object had been robbery, probably he
had decided from my rough appearance that 1
was too poor a uiau to be worth tho trouble.
But after all, I thought probably he spoke the
truth. A man may have such a voice without
being a highway man, no doubt. So I went
homeward, and soon found myself under shelt
er, and partaking of a warm aud savory sup
per.
My mother was there and my brother Ben.
lieu was a great strapping fellow, who could
heat any other boy of his age for miles around
if it camo to wrestliug or boxing, aud as good
humored a boy as'ever lived ; a boy always to
.mother und I, though he had exercised his
Tight to vote already iu one - Presidential elec
tion. When supper was over, and we had
chatted for an hour, we went up stairs togcthor.
"The moment Ben's head touched the pillow,
he always went to sleep. That night, I fol
lowed his example. But I did not sleep Jong
without a dream?a dream in which I Id It
rough grip upon my arm, and was arouse)
A cry in my cars.
?" Wako up! You are wanted at the
ffoads."
It was so real, so j ulpable, that win
.-started broad awake, I actually believed
some one wus in the room ; the man who]
lendcd robbery or violence. But when
iirisen, and lit my lamp, the room was oil
except my.sclf and Ben, who lay snorinj
his pillow.
I went to tho door ; it was locked. I
to tho window, thu crush of raiu ag. iuJ
pains was all I heard. I even went uoroj
passage to my mothor's room. She was aj
there hud been no unusual sound, sin
Mure.
Only a dream born of my meeting the
?dr?nge man iu tho road, I felt, hud awakened
juo. 1 went to bed and tell asleep again.
Again I was awakened by tho same words,
it his time shrieked in my car by an unearthly
woioe.
"Wake up, wake up. You arc wanted at
the cross roada." ,
I was on my lcct ouuc nuuo, and caught
Bcu's hand as ho camo over towards my bed.
"Whatails you?" he cried.
"Nothing," said I. "Did you hear a voice ?"
"Yours," said Ben, "yelling woke mo up;
you fairly frighteuud me."
"Ben," said I, "wait till I light a lamp ; I
heard another voice. Must be some one in
the house or outside."
So I again lit a lamp, but wo searched in
vain.
"Nightmare," said B., v hen I told him my
story.
"Ben," said I, "what is there at tho cross
roads.
"A house," said B. He had lived in the
neighborhood a long while, and 1 not lonj
"Uno little house, beside two oak trees
and a fence. An old man lives there?a rich
man, and a bit of a miser, they say. LI is
grand daughter keeps house for him."
"Ben, that fellow may have meant harm to
them. 1 may be wanted at the cross roads
"Brother," said Ben, "go to sleep. You
had a nightmare," aud Ben plunged in be
tween the blankets, aud was snoring again.
I also, iu ten minutes, slept as soundly us
before, but the awakening soon came again.
I opened my eyes, to seo a girl standing at
the ibut of my bed. A girl iu whites robes,
with g?lden hair all about her shoulders, who
wrung her hands and cried : "Oh, wake up,
you aro wanted at the cross roads."
This time I starte I out of bed, bathed in a
cold pcrsporutiou. I trembled like a leaf. 1
had no doubt that I had received supernatural
warning.
"Ben," I cried, l*Bcn, for the third time I
have been told that 1 am wanted at the cross
roads, and I am going."
Aud I began to dress myself as speedily as
possible, listening the while to the storm rag
ing wilder aud wilder than at any other period
?inte its commcuccmcnt.
Ben remonstrated with mo in vain. At last
he also began to huddle on his clothes.
"If you have gone mad, I must go with you
and take cur?? of you," he said.
? Vliut ciuuey another man, goiug out ina
^bnufoilo ftfis it) Ttte 'oroaiT rbtKls,' bqeauso a
nightmare caused him to do so, and what you
think of him ?"
I saitTiiothiug. All I could have answered
would have been
"I am compelled to go ; 1 must go. I dare
not refuse, whatever may be thought of mo ?"
In ten minutes we were splashing through
the mud and rain along the road. It was
perfectly dark; now and thcu a blazing red
tstar iu the distance told us that a lam)) was
beaming through the raiu in some cottage
window, but otherwise we would not have
been conscious of .our proximity to any habita
tion whatever. At last, nenriug the spot
whoro tho road from S-crosses tho road to
I*-,wo wero indeed iu as solitary a place
as can be imagined.
The house, which abutted on tho very angle
of tho roads', called in familiar parlance the
Cross liorid, was tho only one for some dis
tance in either direction, aud certainly on
such y night we were notlikcly to meet many
travelers.
All was quiet ns the grave. We stood quite
still. In a moment, B. broke out iu one of
his wildest laughs.
"Well," he said, "how now?"?Will you go
home now and have another nightmare?"
But hardly had the words escaped his lips,
when a shriek broke on the uir aud a woman's
voice, plainly coming from tho interior of the
cottage, cried: '-Help! help! help!"
"Ben," said I, "we are wanted at the cross
roads," and then understanding each other,
without more words we made our wny to the
window, through which a light shone. A mus
lin curtain draped the panes, but through it
we saw an awful sight.
An old man lay on the floor, and over him
bent a ruihian, clutching his throat, and hold
nan
fore
as
_ t we
were wanted at the cross roads."
The old man was not a miser, but hu had
saved some few thousand dollars lor his old
age, aud living more plainly then ho need have
done, had given rise to the rumor, and so
brought the burglars to the cross roads iu the
hope of booty.
The girl, a beautiful creature of seventeen, 1
was hia grand-daughter, uud as no story is
neCeptiblc to the lady reader without a flavor
of romance, I will tell them, that she becamo
iu after, years, not my wife, but the wife of
my darling brother Ben.
Three Brave Men.
Pretty Barbara EerroB would not marry..
IIcr mother was iu consternation.
'?Why are you so stubborn, Barbara?"
she asked, "you havo plenty of lovers, I
know."
"Hut they do not suit mo," said Barbara,
cooly. tying back her curls beforo the mirror.
"Why not?"
"I want, when I marry, a man who is brave,
equal to any emergency. If I give up my
liberty, I want to be taken cure of."
"Silly child! what is the matter with big
Barney, the blacksmith ?
"He is big, but I never learned that he was
brave."
"And you never heard that he was not.
What is the matter with Earnest, the gun
smith ?"
-He's as placid as goat's milk."
"That is no sign that he is a coward. There
is little Fritz, the tanner : he is quarrelsome
enough for you, surely? '.
"He is no bigger than u bantam cock. It
is little he could do if the house was set upon
by robbers."
"It's not always strength that wins a fight
my girl. It takes brains as well as brawn.?
Come, now, Harbara, give these young fellows
a fair trial."
Barbara turned her face before the mirror,
letting down one raven tress and looping up
another.
"I will, mother," said she at last.
That evening, Earnest, tho gunsmith knock
ed early at the'door.
"You scut for me Barbara?" he said going
to the girl, who stood upen tho hearth, coquet-,
tishly warming one pretty foot and then the
other.
"Yes, Earnest," she replied. "I've been
thinking of what you said the other jaight ,
^lcu^oulfcT5^ ' j ?
"Well Barbara."
Earnest spoke quietly, but his dark blue
eyes flashed, and he looked at her intently.
"I want to test you."
"How ?"
'?I want to see if you dare do a very disa
greeable thing."
"What is it!"
"There is an old coffin up stairs. It smells
of mold. They say Redmond, the murderer,
was buried iu it; but the devil catno for his
body and left the eoflin empty at the cud of a
week; aud it was finally taken from tho tomb.
It is up stairs itr* the room \ny grandsirc' died
iilj and they sny grandsirc does not rest c;t?y
iu his grove for some reason, though that J
know nothing about. Hare you make thai
eolfiu your bed to-night?"
Earnest laughed.
"Is that all ? 1 will that, and sleep sound
ly. Why, pretty one, did you think I bad
weak nerves?"
"Your nerves will have good proof if you
undertake it. Remember, no one sleeps in
that wing of the house."
"I shall sleep the souuder. I will send a
lad to-showyou the chamber. If you&tay un
til morning," said imperious Miss Barbara,
with a nod of her pretty head, "I will marry
you."
"You vow it?"
Earnest turned straightway und followed
the lad in waiting through dim rooms and
passages, up cchoingstairs, along narrow, damp
ways, where rats scatter before them, to a low
chamber. The boy looked pale und scared,
and evidently wanted to hurry away; but
Earliest made him wait until be took a survey
of the mom by the aid of his lamp. It
was very large and full of recesses, with high
windows in them, which were barred across.
He remembered that, old (Jraudsire Ferres had
been insane for several years before his death,
so that this precaution bad beed necessary for
the safety ol himself und others. In the cen
tre of the room St odd a eoflin; beside it was
placed a chair. The room was otherwise per
fectly empty.
Earnest stretched himself in the eoflin.
"Be kind enough to tell Miss Barbara that
it's a very good fit." be said.
' The boy went put and shut the door, leav
ing tho young gunsmith alone iu the dark.
Meanwhile, Harbara was talking with tho
big blacksmith in the keeping-room.
'?Barney," said she, pulling hor hands away
from his grasp when ho would havu kissed
her, "I've a test to put to you before I give
you any answer. There is a corpse lying iu
tho untonautcd wing of the house. If you
dare sit with it there all night, aud let
nothing drive you from your post, you will not
ask mo to inurry you again iu vain."
"You will give me n light and a bottle of
wine, and a book to road
".Nothing I" 1
"AreUhcse all the conditions you cnu oiler
mo, Barbara?" '-\
"All. - And if you. get frightcued, you need
never Jook me iu tho iaoo ngaiin" i
"FlLtuke th'cui, thou;'!< < ',i I ? j c
So Barney was conducted to Ii'ih post by the
lad* who had been- instructed in I tho secret,
and whoso ^-involuntary -etiire at Earnest's:
placid faod as it lay iu the coffin was. intorprCr
tod b? Baruoy to bo natural awe of a corpse,
lie took his seat, and the boy left him. tdonu
with tho. darkness, the.rats and the coffin.
SOoibnftcr, young Fritz, the tanner, arrived,
flattered and hopeful, from tho fact that Bur
bara-had s-2ut for him.
"Have you changed your mind, Barbara ?"
he uskod.
"No; and I shall not until I know that you
can'O?^areally bravo thing.'' ?
: "What shall it bo? I swear to satify you;
Bnvb??ra."'">
;:ltuvo' a>proposal to maks , you. My plan
requires skill as well ns courugo."
''lill'mo i';',
"Welk; in this house is a man watching by
a corajsc..-- lie has sworn not to leave his post
until^iorning. If you can make him do it, I
shall d)0 satisfied that you arc as smart und as
bravo as.I require a husband to be.
4,\ihyi!npthing is so oasy!" exclaimed Fritz, |
'?I cjfn seave him away. Furnish me with a
sheet* shoaUaCcthe room, aud go to your rest ,
Burbura. You shall find me at the post iu the
morniij^.".
Barbara did as required, aud saw the tanner
step xbiithiy away to his ta.sk. It was then
nearlv tW^ve o'clock, and she sought her own
chamber, quickly.
?Barueyr was sitting at his vigil, and, so far,
all Ii ill -been well. The night seemed very
long,' for ho had no means of counting the
time. At times a thrill went through him,
for it teemed as if he could hear low, suppress
ed bJcnthing riot far away; but he persuaded
himac If that it was tho wind, blowing through j
the ^j-evices ^f the old houso. Still, it was I
voryfkniely, and not at all cheerful. .
T^Srfaco in the 'coffin gleamed, whjter j
ijfcbfflMp^^itirt 'i^-?^ Xllfl ratc-r.iii,vik','il 11s
it a iiuninc were upon them and they smelted
dead flesh, 1 -'The thought made him shudder.
He got up and walked about, hut something
made a flight uoibu, as if Hom.cbudy y as be
hind him, aud he put his chair with its back
against the wall, and sat down again. Ilo
had been hard at work all day. and at last, in
spite of everything, he grew sleepy. Finalby
he nodded and snored.
Suddonl}- it seemed as if Somebody had
touched him. lie awoke with a start, and
saw nobody near, though in the ocntrofof the
room stood a white figuro. bau ? UTE >? '
^"Cursc you, get out of this !" he excluimrrd
iu a fright, using tho fii>t word- that ta'.^c to
lit? longuo. j .' ""
The liguro held up its right arm and slowly
approached him. He started to his'feet.. The
spectre came nearer, nearer, pressing him intu
the corner.
"The d?1 take you'.i'! cried Barney, in his
extremity.
Involuntarily be stepped back; still the
figuro advanced, coming nearer and nearer,
and extending both arms, as if to take hiin ill
a ghastly embrace. The hnic started up on
Barney's head; he grow desperate, and just ns
the gleaming arms would have touched him.
he fell upon the ghost like a whirlwind,
tearing off the sheet, thumping, pounding
beating and kicking, more and more enraged
at the - resi titnee he met, which told him the
truth.
As the roadt-r knows, ? he was big, aud
Fritz was little; and while he was pumineling
the little tanner unmercifully, and Fritz was
trying in vain to get a lunge at Barney 's
stomach, to take the wind out of him, both
plunging and kicking like horses, they were
petrified by hearing a voice cry :
??Take one of your size, Hi^, Haruey !"
Looking around they saw the corpse sitting
up in his coffin. This was too much. They
released each other and Sprang for the door.
They never knew how they got out; but they
ran home in hot haste, panting like stags.
It was Barbara herself who came nnd opened
the door upon Earnest the next morning.
'?It's very early; one more little nap," said
he turning over iu the coffin,
So she married him ; and though she sent
Fritz ami Harne)' invitations to the wedding,
they did not appear. If they discovered tho
trick, they kept the knowledge to themselves,
aud never willingly faced Harbnrn's laughing
eyes again.

General Lee as College President.
yt* liagby writes as follows to a paper in
Lexington, VV, in regard,to<3cperal Lee:
Here It will be i?pl?oo to Tolato that on my
return1 from ? Lexington, a gentlcnian in the
coach expressed tho fear that Getioral Lee's
kindness of heart, und his desire to enlarge
the't'ollegd might, perhaps, muko him too len
ient, and possibly, lower the scholastic stand
ard. To quiet his fears; I told him what had
been told me a few days before by u olorgyman
residing iu Lexington.
"General Loo's office," said he, "i? no sin
ecure.1 His work taxes to the utmost his pow
erful constitution. He registers iu his mind
not only the" fade but the name of each of the
four hundred and ten students. Nor \B that
all. He can tell you the standiug of each
student in the several hrauqhcs which ho stu
dies, imd any neglect of duty is promptly pun
ished."
/'Punished I" I exclaimed.
"Ves," said he, "iu General Lee's own way.'
"llow is that V I iuquirod.?
l/Wollj not long sinco a young friend i of |
mine, who is iu the college, confessed to me
that he had bucu, as ho expressed it, "hauled
up"?that is, he had received a message to the
effect that the President desired to sec him in
his office. - '?' '
"Did General Lcc lecture you?"
"No, indeed."
"Did'h? scold you ?" v * ;
"Scold ! I only wish Tic had. Tic talked to
mc so kindly that he nearly broke my heart, -
and yo'fi don't catch mc in there again, I tell
yon;"
That is "General Lee's way." not like,
Stonewall Jackson's, but quite as effectual in
college as was Jackson's iu the army. If wo
add to this personal supervision of each in
