FIVE HUNDREDDOLLABS.
“Oh, stop, Jack! There la something
beneath my feet. A glove, perhaps.
Look for it, dear!"
The boy stooped down at hia sister’s
request.
"I declare, Lily, it’s a roll of notea.
Oh, what a find?" cried Jack, regardless
of grammar in hia excitment.
“But what a loss to some unfortunate
person! Let ua wait awhile, and observe
if any one is searching for them!"
“Hush, Lily, or some passer-by, who
has no right to the money, may over
hear you and claim it. But the real
owner will go right off and advertise his
loss. You’re five years my senior, and
very book learned, sis, but 1 know the
world far better than you do, especially
this great world of New York. Why,
it wouldn't be safe to go to the nearest
lamp-post and count the money, or I’d
like to!”
Ho the young philosopher of fifteen
Cut that “find" in his vest-pocket, ami
uttoned up Ids coat over it.
Lillian Huntley was a music-teacher,
and two afternoons each week gave les
sons to a young girl who had no other
spare ti ne. It was some distance from
Lillian's own home, and Jack, wrho was
employed in an office, always called for
her upon these occasions, very proud to
be his sister's escort.
“How late you are, my dear children!
I feared something had happened to
you," said Mrs. Huntley, who was peer
ing out into the November dusk.
“We’re all right," replied her son.
“though we met with a happening. But
come within, mother dear, and lock the
door. Then sit down and count these
notes."
*w*r She counted them, Lillian and Jack
looking on eagerly.
“Three bills of one hundred dollars,
two fifties, and ten of ten dollars each
five hundred dollars!"
“It waa Lily’s luck, mother."
“I don’t know that it is such great
luck. The owner is sure to advertise his
loss.”
“Well, he can’t offer less than fifty for
a reward, and that is something,
mother,”
“Indeed it is, dear; and you must
look in the papers early to-.norrow
morning. But do not name this to any
one; for in a poor tenement-house, such
as ours, we know not what evil-minded
persons may be under our very roof."
And all t .at evening, how they won
dered who the luckless individual could
be, and what were hia or her sensations
si tliat momentl
For three following days the columns
of “Lost and Found" were searched in
several papers in vain.
It may be some one very, very poor
in consequence," said Mrs. Huntley,
“this sum being their entire savings;
therefore let us advertise."
Bo a few lines were dr awn up to this
effect:
Found-on the evening of no-
VKMBEK—. asurn of iuo ey, which
the owner can receive by giving a full descrip
tion and paving expenses.
But days and weeks and months
jaiesed over, and no application was
made through the office or the paper.
Yet Lilian and her mother gratefully
Messed that loser, for upon one occasion
Mrs. Huntley had a severe spelt of sick
ness—the little funds were low, and a
small'siun was borrowed from that store.
Then Jack required an entire new suit;
and lastly, by that means, they were en
abled to take a small house in a better
neighborhood, merely renting two
rooms to a respectable young couple.
Yet each time the money was honor
ably returned into a safely-locked desk.
Pour months went by, when, one April
evening, Lilian was returning from one
of those weekly music-lessons, arm-in
arm with her brother.
They always exchanged a silent pres
sure of the hands upon reaching that
well-remembered spot.
Two young gentlemen were in conver
sation.
“I ought to know this place,” Raid one,
“for it was here I lost live hundred dol
lars, having shortly t>eforo received that
amount, and never missed it until next
morntag, when many a league out at
sea.”
“Buthow do you know this was tho
identical spot?" inquired his companion
‘The notes were in my hand, and
v. hile pausing to count the strokes of a
church clock, which proved to he six, 1
thrust them (as 1 believed) into the
breast-pocket of my overcoat. You
know tne circumstances under which 1
was going; and, moreover, my passage
was taken and baggage on board. To
be in time war my clue?thought. 1 only
hope that money* fell into the hands of
some deserving person."
“Pray this is not Arcada,
Gotham; «o more probably some loafer
it no. mane for the nearest sa
loon, there got drunk was robbed, and
foing home, beat his wife and children,
lull must leave you now, Mr. Graham.
Will call to-morrow morning at nine,
without fail."
“Oh, Jack!" “Oh, Lilyl” had been
whispered by the brother and sister, in
the shadow of a neighboring gateway.
“Gall to him, Jack or he will be out of
sight!"
And Jack not only called, but seized
the stranger's arm.
“Sir, sir!" he cried, “your money was
not lost; my sister here found ill"
“Is it possible that such rare honssty
exists?"
“If you come with us, sir, to our
mother's home," said Lilian, “you shall
bo convinced that in our case such a
thing was possible!"
"Pardon my abruptness," returned
Allan Graham. “I have only to look at
your countenances to see my error."
He did not know whether to admire
most the loveliness of the yonng girl or
the pride with which she had spoken.
And Lillian, fearing she had said too
much, remained silent, so the conver
sation was carried on between Jack and
their strangely-encountered acquaint
ance*
Mrs. Huntley was upon the wvich for
them aa usual, lor the dally incidents
seldom '▼Sjrfcd In tha* .fuiet family. But
as Jack introduced chair visitor, she; in
turn, wse •urnHped; then quickly un
locking the desk, laid the notea before
him* Mr. Graham never oounted that
money, but asked Mrs. Huntley to re
place it saying be would prefer not to
it that crania*
He then told them thataboutJMft time
the money waa lost he received a letter
from his sister, who resided inEngtand,
imploring h»m to come to her immedi
ately. Her husband had teen thrown
from his horse a»1 killed, and between
her deep grief for his loss, and the ter
ribb shock she h <1 sustained, was utter
ly prostrated.
He found the poor, broken-hearted
widow seriously ill, and though she
seemed to rally for a short time, yet
gradually sank and died, leaving her
only child, a little girl about five years of
age, to his rare.
“And now, Mrs. Huntley,” he con
tinued, “I venture to mak * a proposal.
Will you take my poor little waif asi an
inmate of your pleasant home, and allow
this money, so fortunately loKt and
found, to be my payment for a few
month* la advance.
Then a discussion arose respecting tfiat
payment, Mrs. Huntley considering u
smaller sum than he proposed an equiv
alent. but finally he twined his point.
“Where is the child now, Mr. Gra
ham?" asked Lillian. “Surely not alone
at the hotel?"
“No, not alone; for two young ladies,
acquaintance of my sister, came out in
the sarno steamer, and kindly took
charge of little Nell: but they leave in a
few days for one 01 the large Western
cities. * You will relieve me of a great
difticultv," he continued. “I waa about
to take her to tho house of the friend
with whom you met me this evening.
His wife would receive the child, hut
they have a large family of their own."
80 it was decided thai Mrs. Huntley
and Lillian should call the next morn
ing, aud make little Nell’s acquaintance.
“llow do you like o»r newr friend,
Lily?" asked her brother, who had re
turi ed from piloting their visitor to the
street'ear, en route for his hotel.
“Very much, indeed, Jack. And dur
ing your absence mamma has suggested
that 1 give up my out-door pupils to oe
corne the child’s governess, dressmaker,
etc. We shall have that little room
opening from ours newly papered, and
buv some pretty light furniture for it."
“Then I am not to escort you through
our lucky street any more?"
“I think not, Jack. We found that
money, and we found Mr. Graham—l
am contented."
latte in the summer, Allan Graham,
who had been traveling in the fur west,
returned. He had heard frem Lillian
that little Nell had suffered slightly from
the extreme heat; so, before coining
even to see her, made a trip to Long
Branch, and there arranged for Mrs.
Huntley, her daughter and their little
charge to remain until cool weather set
in.
And when they met, it was almost like
old friends, for he and Lillian had con
stantly corresponded, upon Nell’s ac
count, the child always enclosing a little
letter of her ow n.
At the close of their week’s sojourn,
Mr. Graham made his second trip,
bringing with him Jack, who, perhaps,
was for the time, the happiest mortal in
all that seaside resort.
He had to return to Monday morn
ing's business, but Graham lingered a
few days longer. Then these weekly
visits came to be a matter of-course,
though one being omitted caused a
general disappointment; while for Lil
lian, the blue seemed to have all gone
out of the skies, and the melody of the
waves changed to a maddened moan.
But at length he came, and doubtless
her sunshine and her music were bright
aud sweet once more.
“And you think I have fulfilled poor
F.linor’s desires, Lillian?’’ asked Allan
Graham, one evening, during a sea
beach ramble, Mrs. Huntley and Nell
being left at home—one deep in an in
teresting novel, the other in childhood’s
happy dreamland.
“Indeed I do, Mr. Graham, ana con
sider you to have been one of the kind
est and most devoted of brothers.
“And yet there was another request
my sister made; I will repeat it in her
own words. “Allan, you are now twenty
seven; why do you not change your
lonely, single life for ore more home
like? Think you, is there no dear loving
girl whose sweet presence would add to
your happiness? To Nell we shall re
main only a tender memory; hut to you
site will look up with a child’s love and
• Inly, as to a father. Will you not give
•i mother, also?’ I was const ruineu to
promise, though at that time there was
no one whom I loved, or. probably who
cared for me; hut now I nave found her!
Lily—dear Lily! will you belt) me to ful
fill my sister’s last wishes? I think you
care for me—a little!"
“Not only a little, Allan, but very
greatly!"
He k isses the tear-glistening eyes, and
the sweet lips quivering with emotion
Then they walk homeward together,,
and the dull, ro!d[earth seems transform
ed in to a paradise.
And when she hears their story, how
happy Mrs. Huntley will be! But Jack—
what will he sav?

A bridal couple from Frince William
county, aged 50 and HO, arrived on the
local train at Alexandria Va., on Thursday

EXPERT TESTIMONY.
How It Nearly Hung An Innocent
Man.
Tn August, 1H72, Joseph Angel, tho
man servant of Dr. Rigaud, of Bruges,
Belgium, was arrested and placed on
trial, charged with the murder of his
master, M. Rigaud. The victi.u of the
alleged murder had been a retired phy
sician, a graduate of the Royal college
and a gentleman of wealth. His sud
den and mysterious death at once enlis
ted the interest of a large number of
people, and among them some of the
most eminent physicians of the kingdom.
The post mortem examination and anal,
ysis were conducted under the immed
iate care of these latter gentlemen. The
result of an elaborate scientific analysis
was held to establish the presence of
a sufficient quantity of arsenic in the
system of the deceased to have pro
duced death; which led to the arrest of
Agnel, as the most likely person to he
guilty of the crime. He was a man of
violent temper, and had been discharged
from the service of M. Rigaud for the
exhibitions of unuovernatde anger tho
last occasion of his discharge being an
intemperate quarrel with his master a
few days before the alleged murder.
Three days before the death of M. Rig
aud, Aguel had been reinstated, the
physician appearing to possess a deep
regard for his servant. Tins affection
was also shown by an inspection of the
will of the deceased gentleman, in which
he l>equeathed to his servant the sum of
4,000 francs, slid recommended him to
the service of his (Rigaud’s) brother in
Bordeaux, trance.
At the time of his death Rigaud and
his servant were living in apartments in
the Rue Varrie, with a lady by the name
of Frank. Every angry word that es
caped Agnel was noted, and an array of
criminating evidence was collected
against him that must have been fatal
It was shown that, on the evening of his
discharge, he had procured a small phi
al of arsenic from the dispensary of the
college, for the use, as ne had stated,
of his master. It was also discovered by
the detectives that Agnel had become
involved in money matters and in a
manner that threatened his arrest and
disgrace; so that the bequest in Rigaud’s
w ill, of which tho accused was aware,
became especially desirable to relieve
him from his its harassment.
Angel strenuously denied his guilt, as
well as all knowledge of the matter,
and evinced the deepest grief at his
master's death.
The trial was conducted "before the
judges in the city of Burges, and lasted
four days. The testimony of the chem
ical experts, wiio had conducted the
analysis, was a highly interesting charac
ter, forming the basis of the prosecution.
All the circumstances against Agnel were
damnatory to a degree,when Mrs. Fiank.
the landlady, came to the front and
saved him.
On tho last day of the trial the woman
was called, and testified that at the time
of M. Uigaud’s death'Agnel was notin
the house, nor had lie been there for
four or five hours previous. About It
o’clock in the afternoon on the 24th of
August she had been summoned to the
apartments o.‘ the deceased by a violent
ringing of his bell, and found himappar
ently in the agonies of death.
As she approached his bed he had
handed her a largo envelope, directed
to M. Bardoux, and had told
her to send for him. Greatly
frightened, she took the letter ami bur
ried down stairs, for the purpose of
sending h. r husband, us the sick man
had requested. As she reached the bot
tom of the Htairs Agnel hud entered the
house. She ordered him to run for the
doctor ui once, that tiis master was (ly
ing. Instead of going. Agnel ran up
stairs to the room of M. Rigaud, whom
he found dead. He then proceeded to
the residence of the doctor, who he ac
companied hack to the house in the Rue
Varrie. Mrs. Frank gave the letter in
charge of the physician.
The interest of her testimony ended
tiere, but It opened the Way lor evidence
of Dr M. Saroou, which, with the 1 tter,
were submitted to the court. He testi
fied that he had withheld his testimony
and the letter from the pre
vious investigation of the case
solely for the benefit of medical science,
and to establish a test of the reliability
of cnemical analysis in cases of tins
kind. The latter forms the strangest
feature of this strange case. It thorough
ly e-tuhlished the innocence of the ac
cused by showing that the deceased bad
deliberately committed suicide, and
further, that his death had not been oc
casioned by arsen.c at all, but by a dose
Oi aoiituony.
Altogether the case is one of the most
singular iu the history of medical juris
prucence and is a significant commentary
on the value of testimony pn which
men’s lives have often depended, ami
olten will depend in the future.
A Moving Bo?.
Having heard many reports about
tins moving bog, I resolved to visit the
scene of devastation. Never have I wit
nessed as strange a phenomenon. About
midnight between Castlcra and Ballin
agare,a distance of six miles, there is a
gently sloping vale abounding in rich
meadow aud pasture lands. The road
at this point is somewhat higher than
the adjacent fields, Along this valley
the bog lias forced its way. On reach
ing the road it was held in check for
a considerable time, but eventually it
buret across and -ushed with amazing
rapidity, covering in its course upwards
of 120 of tine pasture lands. One
larm house stands quite surrounded
with the mud the occu
pants having to flee for their
lives, leaving behind a cart, on which
they were busily heaping some of their
furniture. All communication between
Castierea and Baliingare is cut otf,
huge masses of bog ? coasted with heath
er. remaining oil U*o rv***d for nearly a
quarter of a mile fully ten feet deep. Anx
ious to view the source from which it
issued, I started up the field towards the
bog. 1 found it commented about hull
a mile from the road, having formed a
large subsidence of amazing extent, from
which a stream of mud was still irresis
tibly forcing its way. The gigantic mass
es of bog borne along, in apparently spor
tive mimicry, battle description. 1 en
tered a cabin on the outskirts of the l>og,
which I supposed to find clean and com
fortable despite its gloomy surroundings.
The old man told mo that this hog
had been showing signs of moving for
many years back. He attributes the
cause to defective drainage, the water
having scarcely any outlet. He stated
that it started very suddenly, reaching
the road, nearly half a mile distant, in
less than ten minutes. He sorrowfully
pointed out to me his tine little fields,
on which he appeared to have bestowed
much care, the most of them now cov
ered with fully twenty-six feet of bog.
It has now forced its wav into the River
Sucks, which flows through this town,
and immense quantities are passing
toward Ballinasloe. Some care and su
pervision will be required to prevent
!heir being tilled up. Rain still con
tinues to fall very heavily, and mors se
rious results are apprehended.

Bilionsness and Bilious Pates.
Pertaining tu Bile, ltllton* Symptoms, ItiP
lous Temperament*. Till’ HKMKIIY.
The Bilious Is a disorder of tba human si »*etn.
A technical definition of the term is this: ‘‘Pertain
ing to the bile; disordered in respect to the bile: as
a bilious patient; dependent on an excess of bile;
as, bilious temperament; bilious symptoms
The word bile, when employed in the sense in
which It is to be uuderatood iu this article, signifies
according to the dictionaries, "a yellow, greenish,
hit’er, viscid, nauseous fluid accreted by the liver.”
“Any derangement of tho bile at once niani F ests
itself in great bodily discomfort, in loss of appetite,
atid in despondency," recently remarked an author
of a valuable treatise upon this subject.
The same writer further adds: “Home of the fol
lowing symptoms are usually prominent: Pain in
the rigid aid**, which is wry sensitive to pressure.
The pain will sometimes appear to be located under
the shoulder blade. There is also irregular apa
tite, fla'uleuce, a sense of fullness In the region of
the stomach, and, sooner or luter, the skin ant'
whites of the eyes become yellow, the stools clay
colored and the urine yellow, depositing a copious
sediment.” The ! allure of tho too familiar tram of
ilia needs no further mention here. The bilious is,
aswillbe seeu, au affliction of great magnitude,
and of varied forms of direct and indirect appear
ance. The disease is no tespecterof persons or lo
calities. Its deadly and implacable enemy is found in

been the cause of all this disease* and suffering will
bethrownoff; now life wiil bo infused into every
organ, and nature, thus aided, will soon restore the
patient to health.
Phyaicians of repute and standing, men who are
honored for their probity and respected and trusted
for their scientific attsiummts, are u?ing Kidney-
Wort in their practice regularly. No stronger evi
dence of the worth of the remedy would seem to be
necessary. Such endorsements are few and far be
tween. We had almost said that they were without
precedent in the history of a proprietary remedy.
Me that aa it may, However, me fact remains estab
lished that Kt tney* Wort is a matchless remedy, and
one that needaonly to be tested to demonstrate its
rare merit as a healer of most of the coimnou mala
dies of the human family.

1882, the doctor wrote to the proprietors of Kidney-
Wort, and said, among other thing*: “Near.y a year
ago, I wrote you about the iucces» I had ha t in the
use of Kidney-Wort in my practice. The past year
I have used it more than ever, and with tho best re
sults. It cured Mr. Ethan Lawrence, of this town,
of s terrible case of bloated kidn**y disorder. I have
also treated » tinnj/ other disrate* successful'!/
with it. Constipation, in all its forms, vic’d* to it,
and iu rheumatic affections I have known it to give
almost immediate relief. In female disorders it is
equally successful Take it all in all it is the m >*t
wonderful medicine I have ever used.” I>r. I ailon
doe* not atand alone iu his experience with this
remedy. RK. Clark, M. D. of Koath Hero, Vt.
says: "Kidney-Wort does all that is claimed for it."
Whilst Dr. C. M. Summerlin of Buulllil, Washing

Oh, My Back!
That’s a common expres
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by so many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver com
plaint, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever tho cause, don’t
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Brown’s Iron Bitters, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and mak
ing the blood pure and rich.
I.ogansport, Trnl, Dec. i, 1880.
For a I'ng time I havr hern a
• sufferer from stomach and kidney
disease. My appt t.te was very poor
and the vt ry small amount 1 diu eat
dis igrecit with me. I was annoyed
very no.;, h from non-retention of
urine. I tried m iny remedies with
no success, until I used Brown’*
Iron Bitters. Si'xc I used that my
utomach die* nut bothir me r.ny.
My appetite i- simply immense. M y
kidney trouble i • no more, and my
tcncral health i mrh.th.it 1 feel
hke a new mar. After the use of
Brown’s Iron Bitters for one month,
1 have gained twenty pound* in
weight. O. Li. Sakuant.
Leading physicians and
clergymen use ami recom
mend Brown’s Iron Bit
ters. It has cured others
suffering as you arc, and it
will cure you.
