Thon tby marched up to the hntfl, the

Wibon, who kept tho house, told them
dmoor was ready, and the Apploton mon
wure transformed froui prisoners into
guosts; They sny the rufflns acted like
gentlomon nt the table, were courteous
and polite, serving tbem Urst nnd convers

and lis thoy tepcratert Wykoff said, "Well

John Yourfer looked around nt hi
companions and said, ! dont know but

may go this time, hut don't you aver come

AVykoff "What was your object in
stopping us and taking our arms'.'"
Younger "We heard you wero sifter u
and wo thought we would come out end
see ycu, but you laid down, your arms like
little men." Titrniug to young Holer, he
said: "You've got more colnr in your faeo
than you ha I, boy; you look like a differ

'I feel like a different fellow,' answered
Heter, mrokly, as they rode off, without
tbelr arms, aod sUrtea home with lighter
hearts. Nearly half way to Applcton the

very suddenly, of typhoid phneumonla.

Ond Follows of this oitv, wlrn will send
130 remains to Miawneetomru to morrow

this morning, but that tulfi'rum ha been
recalled sinco his death. Mr. Loom!
was Circuit Clerk of Callatln County, and
was ofgood standing with his people, lfo
leavea a wifo und Ave children, who wilt
bethockod to learn of bis sudden docceto.
Ho Tns fi clerk in tbo oflU-o of llurcrnor
Y'ato during tho early part of tbo war,

was Asslftivnt Adjutant General.
FASTER HOLIDAYS.
In England, from which country wo
derivo so many of our social Imoiis and
custom,,'Eastor la considered u very Im
portant occasion, nnd tho holiday reason
which it attached to it is lielJ to be only
second in intoreft to tbat of Christmas.
At Easter all tho universities nnd
schools in the realm close, and ovorybody
who ua n homo turn uis look tuithor
ward with n bright face and n glad liourt.
AtEastorall work thnt can slop, pauses:
thfl oourte adjourn, tho circumlocution
office ropoeor, and parliament rise. In
deed parliament nevor roally goes to work
unvu niter Ansier.
At Easter thoro is n universal deter
mination on the part of nil Englaud to
havo a second odltiou of Christmas holi
days. As lung as Anglo-Saxon has been
spoken, or rather .inoo that langiugo bo
gun to bo spoken, tor tho two streams of
Norman and Auglo-Stxon tiftcr the con
quest combined to form the JCntUic, or
English, tho anniversary of
tbe resurrection of our Haviorb
ns been known as. Easter. Tho
appellation probably eii.ie from the
baxon "axUr, "ttunrito.'' Soino archiul-
oglsts, however, riorivu tho namu from tbe
Saxon goddess, Hattrr, who' wa specially
invoked Hy hor worshipers in tho
spring, . and wbo was thought
to oxerclao n happy Influenco
upon the forthcoming vogotation. The
point is of little conteiuence. Roth Kas
tor and Sundoy aro good Suxon, nnd, like
many other word of tho aama sturdy
tongue, havo gainod a lasting home at tbo
hearths and in the hearts of n Christian
pooplo.
In early days, Easier was counted tbo
queen of festivals, and was colobriitod
hith great pomp and solemnity. I'rimt
tive Christians upon this dny, always,
when thoy met in too morning, witcnd of
the usual form of salutation, exclaimed,
'Christ is risen I" and tho pooplo slm d
invariably responded. "Christ is risoo in-
deed," or "And has appeared unto l'ctnr."
It was poetical ami Uriontal. The Km
sian and tireok ohurchr havo IkjUi pro
served this custom, and at every roourring
Eoster tbe salutation may be hear J. Ills,
hop Cog, In his travols, tnontmn having
met with an lnitanco of thi cnmltnir in n
rural parish In EnglaDd. 1 n tbo Ilrst Jen-
itiry a oi ntroveray aruso in tbo Church
with wiped to the true timo and mode of
keeping Easier. Tho Christian world
we Ihou divided into two purU: tb Koi
ern nnd tho Wostnrn, or tho (JreeK and
the Latin Christians. Tbo Eastern Chris
tian with cat irally .ludai.ing tendenoio,
o User id a pasovcr 'n the night follow
ing the fourtoonth day of Vitaii too day
upon which the patsovcr was instituted
without refuronen to tbe day of tho week
upon WBlou ton lourtoentn might occur.
They klso, at tho same time, celubratcd.the
passion and resurrection of Christ.
Tho Western Christians ignored the
pasMOrer; hut they kept tbo Friday which
followod the fourteenth of VUan i.h u sol
emu last lu memory of the eyiiiliilon,
and celebrated the rnsurrocllno upon the
sutx-cediiig Lord's day. Varieties nlso
aroso'iu regard to tho tiutr. Error had
crept gradually Into the nJendar, and
every day was away from the trno tlutn.
This evil went on increasing until A. '.
167a, wbon the calendar was reformed and
oorreoled by I'ope Orogory XIII.
Tbo diversity and prmtlro in regard to
tbo time and manners of kuoping Easter,
snrmt, say Dr, lloblncon, to bavn been
