Hower, it is stated the Duncan was "not on her pins,' and she proposes to give the Morgan another trial. The election passed off with a "remarka ble degree of serenity" which looked rath er ominous for the Republicans, as in the past they have always indulged in a regu lar jubilee. But as they have "btrechcd their banner in the cause of Prohibition, their department yesterday was quite cred itable, Tom Adams, second mate of the Com monwealth, killed a negro roustabout at Vicksburg on her up trip. Tho raiite surrendered himself to tho au thorities and was released under a bond of 12,000. From the report as published in the Republican of the 7th inst. the mate was perfectly justicable. Pines for Eis C1J Homo. Tom Pagan, of this city, has a wild hot'xo that don't scm to take to tho rush and hurry and turmoil of mt! tropolU, Hi has bn o ai'oiistotm'd do the glad, free air of the plains and mountains that tho hampcivd and falso life of a throbbing oily, with its myriad industries, makes him ihtvuiis and un happy, lie sighs for the boundless praino and the pure breath of the life giving mountain atrmwpheiv. So taci turn is he in fact and so cursed by homesickness and weariness of an ar tificial and unnatural hor-o sncirty here in Laramie that he refuses to rat any thing and is gradually pining away. Sometimes he takes a light Union out of Mr. Fagan's arm, but fur days and days he utterly loathes food. Ho also loathes those who try to go into the stable and fondle him. lie isn't apparently very much on the fondle. Ho don't yearn for human society, but seems to want to bo by himself and think it over. Tho wild hurso in stories soon learns to love his master and stav by him and carry him through flood or lire, and generally knows more than tlie Cyclo peilia lirittanica; but this horso is not tho historical horso that they put into wild Arabian falsehoods. Ho is just a plain, unassuming wild horse of Wy oming descent, whoso pedigree- is slightly clouded and who is sensitive on the question of his ancestry. All ho wants is just to bo let alono and most everybody has decided that ho is right. They camo to that conclusion after thov had soaked their persons in arnica anil glued themselves logethor with poultices. Perhaps after awhile he will conclude to eat hay and grow up with tho coun try but now he sighs for his tiativo bunch of grass aud tho buffalo wallow wherein he has heretofore made his lair. Wo don't wouder much though, that a horse who has lived in the country ithonld bo a little rattled here when ho finds the olectrio light, and bicycles, nnd lawn mowers, and Uncle Tom's Cabln'troupes and baled hay at $20 per ton. It makes him as wild and skittish as It does an eighteen year old girl the first time she comes into town and for the first timo is mot by the flare of trumpets, and tho oriental wealth ol the circus with its deformed camels and uuiforniod tramps driving its miles of cages with no animals in thoru. The groat natural world and the 'giddy maelstrom of seething perspiring hu manity, peculiar to tho city world, are two separate and distinct existences. ioomcrag. i in "You'ro as sweet 08 a peach," ha aid, patting her softly on the cheek. lYna arid milteeriilfetrl tiiifffplftlrt tit ill I nearer to him A VPf Plld IIIUIIlllllVU DU lia;tiLL DMsi o him, "l oi clinkstone.

LISLE. - It was a quiet place, tho little village of Mavton, nestled down between two large hills, with its white cottages and neatly gravelled walks. The most pre tentious house (here whs Judge Gray's that largo stono mansion, with the velvety lawn in front, dotted with ever- j;n;t:ii, iwm sireiciung tiown to me purl ing brook that wound its course so near ho stately dwelling. Tho house was, at tho time, our story opens, tilled with guests. Harry Gray was home from college, -md his beau tiful cousin Maud St. Lisle who had the past winter been tho reiguing met ropolitan belle was there, and hnr merry laugh ran? through the broad halls, and her light step was heard trip ping over the verandah. Judge Gr,y whs a pleasant social man, free from all affectation or osten tation. True merit was worth more to him than mere worldly possessions, and when Percy llalford lirst came to May ton and opened his little law-oft'tco, Judge. Gray had extended to him a more than cordial invitation to visit his house socially. But Percy Halford was proud, poor, and gifted. Ho had his way to make in the world, and ho could not afford to indulge in the pictures of society tin til he had earned for himself a position among men. and he had politely, but decidedly, refused all invitations to mingle in the society of the village. When Maud Si. Li.-.lc first came to Mavton. she returned from a visit with cer cousin one dav, ami made many en- juiries concerning Percy llalford, ...i t , i . . . . . ... wuoin sue nan n'oii in mo village. tMio remarked to her uncle: "A finer lookinrr man T npvor unw He has the head and forehead of a itatesman. Ho, uncle, invite him to ;all." "Yes." replied Jndfn Gr.iv. "lie i a Tlfted man. nnd one ilcstim.,! In in.tln his mark; but there is no use in askin" nun to call. Ho is such a recluse that he will accent no invitntinn. I Imi-o urged him. again and- acrain, without lr ' ..it . ' . . awm. iiowcut, i a mane anotuer at tempt." And so he did. Again he invited Percy llalford to partake of the hospi talities of his house. For weeks Percv had seen tlin hrvrht. intellectual face of Maud St. Lisltvas slio ilrni-( or riwio t'uuugti me tliage, and he could not help admiring the weii-iurneu jauniess ngure, Uio well poi.sed head, and the taste the exqui site taste sho always displayed in dress; nnd more than once he felt in clined to break his resolution and ac cept the invitation so cordially extend ed him by Judge Gray to call. For what man could, day after day, meet such a lovely woman as Maud St. Lis'e, and not desire to make her ac quaintance? It was a pleasant afternoon in Juno, Percy had turned the key in his olliee door, and sauntered off toward the green old woods for a M roll, lie was leisurely returning towards tho villago when a lady and gentleman on horse back roilo swiftly past him. 'Twas Maud St. Lisle and her cousin Harry. He gazed admiringly upon the grace-fnlly-poiscd ligure of Maud, until a turn in the road hid her from view, and then he murmured: "Beautiful, indeed, but no doubt as vain and heartless as fair-the tirido and pet of fashion's balls, the i.iol of brainless foppish men, the envy of gay butterfly-women of the world. No, no, Percy Halford. do not allow yourself to be caught in such a net." Just then the sun's rays fell upon something in the road which glistened with a thousand rays. Ho stooped and picked from the dust a small delicately wrought diamond ring, a simple band of gold, with a solitary gem in the set ting. As he gazed upon the costly bauble he said to himself: "It niut belong to Miss Lisle, as sho is the onlv one in Maytou who wears Riich costly gems." lie tnrnedit over carefully and saw engraved upon tho inside, "To Maud, from Clare, ' which eon firmed his sup poiition as to the ownership. "1 will send it over," ho said, as he continued his homeward walk, and mut-ed thoughtfully as he walked. After Percy llalford finished his sup per, he repaired to his room, and as usual, donned his dressing-gown and slippers, preparatory to spending tho evening with his books. In vain he endeavored to confine his attention to the. task before him, in vain ho endeavored to think of something besides the bright, eves and graceful form of Maud St. Lisle, At length he threw his book from him, impatiently exclaiming: "I verily believe I am bewitched, and by a ball-room belle, too; but 1 will soon dispel this delusion. I will return the ring this evening nivself," To think with Percy llalford was to act; and carefully making his toilet, ho was soon ushered into Judge Gray's luxuriously furnished parlors, to await the appearance of tho lady ho had call ed to see. Maud St. Lisle was surprised and pleased when tho servant announced that Mr: Halford was In tho parlor, and wished to see her. As sho entered tho parlor Percy arose. "Mr. llalford, I am plonsod to soo you. My undo has repeatedly Invited you to call, I believe, and we have al most despaired of seeing you. Pray bo settled.'' "Thank you," said Percy, still stand ing. "I culled, Miss St. Lisle, to return to you a treasure you lost this afternoon, ana which I wns fortunate enough to tlnd;" aud he banded her Uu tintf. 8, 1882. Tears filled Maud St. Lislo's eyes as sho took tho ring from his hand. "Mr. Halford. I cannot tell you how glad I am to recover this little bauble. It was a gift from tho aunt after whom I was uanied-a dying gift, which I have ever valued highly. "When I discovered tho loss, I sent Harry back to inint for it; but ho re turned unsuccessful, and you have placed mo under life-long obligations to you." It was Percy Hal ford's intention to return the ring, and then seek his little room, but when he entered his cham ber Hie village clock struck the hour of eleven. Time passed on, and the acquaint ance thus commenced soon ripened in to intimacy. There was so much that was congenial between the two young people. Maud could so well appreciate and encourage the aspirations 0f n,,i. tinits and persevering Percy, and Judge Gray was not surprised when his niece, one evening in September, entered his library, and said: Tnole, how would you like mo to many?" "1 Would b( tileaseil In fil0 t'fllt .1-1,11- ned, .Maud, provided you married a man worthy of you -one who could rightly appreciate you for your worth ... .... i ,, inn ;i iuj iiiuc-iiuiuer.

He must succeed in rising 'in the world, and he has so cotnnletel that I fear I shall be compelled to say jlvi iij iiis pnipoHiuon. "I am reioiced tn licnr vnn ctm.itr i. you do.

And ho looked proudly on his bride as he replied: "And the found ring bereft me of all loneliness, and gave me, in return, joy little less than the joy of Paradise." Verily, requited love can brighten all things hero below, and make this earth almost a heaven. A Hard Grind. A hand-organ man was making his way up Adams avenue yesterday, when a boy met him. nnd nlrml. "How many tunes do you play?" "Zixteen shunes nieo, swectshunes," replied tho man. "My father is fond of music, but he is a little deaf," continued the bov. "O, dat makes no defference I make a him hear." The boy led the way un street to where a plaster liust of Sir Isaac New ton had been arranged in a bay-window to look like a living man, and the Ital ian spit oi" his hand and began on the crank. lie ground out all the tunes in rotation, and then began at tho bottom and ground back up tho scale till he got all the to'-,., in th garret of tho box again, i.u: man n tho bay-window didn't move a hair, and the Italian drew a long breath and sighed: "Play more museck tnako him a hear soon." Ho ran out eight tunes, and then threw some eravel at tha winiliiw. Tim bust didn't even work its cars, and the Italian leaned the orgau on tho fence and loudly sang: "(1 ! who shall dinks of mo acinic moar When I am fur a-w-a-v?" ' Tho seven other tunes were rattled off at a lively pace, while the man coughod, whistled, kicked on the feuco and en couraged a dog fight, in order to attract the deaf man's attention. "Sing louder play harder!" called the boy, from the next corner. The grinder secured a brace for his feet, unbuttoned hist vest, nnd tlm u-ut ile roared brought out the citizens by me score. lie kept his eye on the bust and irave no heed tn fho crnwd anrl flm organ box was smoking hot when he let up on the grind. Rosting the music on the ground, he loaned over tlm fnneH and got a square look at his victim. His quiet grin faded into a look of woo and misery nnd murder, and getting his eyes on the boy with the red necktie, lie ran him four blocks and under a car penter shop before a still, Bmall voice whispered thatho had better hold on.

The way to make a man temperate is to kill the desire for those dreadful artificial stimulants that car ry so many bright intellects to premature graves, and desolation, strife and un happiness into so many families.
