A BSILLIAHT EPEICH BY GA11FIL111!
Revolutionary Schemes of the Democrats
Exposed!
THE GAGE OF BATTLE TUR0W.V DOWN !
Mr. Cai field, cf 0bir, tork the
fljor. Ue bfRau bis BpeecL bj refer
ring to tbe gravity and eolem bit j of
tbe cricie) tba-i bad now been brought
upon the coiatry, aud declared ibat
ibe Lluuse ad to-day rerHilved to en
t r opiiD . revolutiua airaiost the
Conbiitution and tbe Government,
and tbat lb cooaeqneacea of ibat re
aolve, if pericted io, meant noibioir
bburt cf ruttverbiiiii of the Govero
ruerjt. t IlavVetehed tbe poiota at in-t-ue
between the two Uousea at tbe
close of tbe late Congress, acd read
from report of one of the Senate
eooferrex, taike effect tbat tbe Dem
ocratic couferees va tbe part of tbe
House were-cWterotiiaed, nuless tbe
uciioo of the U"Qe was concorred
io, to refute making appropriations
to curry oo tbe Government, and he
aluu quoted tr-jm tbe ppeccb of Sena
tor Beck, (ajjotber of the conferees,)
to tbe effect that the Democrats
claimed tbe rleht which tbe HoGse of
ComrooDs in England bad tstabli-bed
after two cenmriea of conquest, to s y
tbat tbev woti'd Dot gram tbe tnonej
f the people unless there was a re
dress of jtrievaocen. These pr"poi
tioD, c iniioued Mr. GarGrld, id vari
diis foroi', mure or less vt-bementlr,
were rrpeattd in tbe lat U'ue, and
wiib that, r-i'uaiioo of affiirs the Bea-j
rtion came near its cloe. Tbe Ilepnb
licao msjor'.tv ia tbe Senate, and the
Uepublcao tii,iritj iu tbe Il.:cs,
eXnres.ted lie def peefcuogrdble eolici
tude to avoid tbe castrophe bere
threatened. They expressed tbeir
.-truuge.-t deaiie to avoid tbe danger
to tbe cou mry aud to its buite-is of
an extra seapiju cf Coores-s, aud
bey expreeted their wiilinoe-a to
let gt what they Ctincidered the Iast
impurtaut of the pr-'puciiion not as
a uiat'tr ot ci.efciofi at all, but as a
matter of fait, atyjitmeut and c im
promie if they cnuld bo met io tbe
-pi'itof ajnitnerit on the other hide.
UufurtuD t-ry. no f pir it tf aHju-t-meut
appeared on the otber bide to
meet tbeir adtancts. Aud now the
ue Coukrrtsii assembled, and afiiT
10 day" of deltberution, the House of
lleprefieniati' ba- resolved sub-!
starjtialiy to rVafli m the propositi ns i
of i;n predtefsor and ou thene
prop a tous e are met to-dry.
Tne q-ieadoi may be at-ked why
tve tiibkn any special refistauc) to
propositions vrbich a ijreaiuiaoy gen
tlprtKTi have deJareU nre to be cjd
pidered of no importance. So far as
bis Bide is concerned, I desire to say
this; We reccjjnizs yoo, gentlemen
- f the otber bice, as r-killtul parlia
iiieotuiidus and fk',ll!ul airategHts.
Vou bave cboeo i-elv and adroitly
your line of asjanh. You bave pin
furward, perbips, the leapt objection
able of your neasures, bnt we meet
that as one p irt of your programme.
We reply to it as an order of battle,
and we are as much compelled by toe
lojtic of ibe siiuatiou, to meet you on
tbe skirniUh Lae as we would be if
you were attacking tbe in'renebments
themselves And, tnerefire, on tbe
threshold, we desire to plant our case
on tbe general grounds on wbich we
cboote to defrLd it. Mr. GrGeld
then referred to what be bad sid ou
tbe last day cf tbe last Congress, a
to the divicini of tbe Government
into tnree pans the nation, tbe lien
ate, and tbe ifcople ; and be said a
foreigner couM p int a d zn ways
in h ch the G vernmeat could be
killed, aud that not by violence Of
tMurce,' all Governments tnip-bt be
overturned br the sword. But there
were tome ways by which this Gov
ernment might be utterly annihilated
without tbe firing of a gnn. Tbe
people niigbtsay tbat they would
u it elect rejireteDtativeB. That, of
coarse, was a violent supposition,
but there was no possible remedy
for such a condition of things, and
without a House of Ilepresentatives
there cjuld be no rapport of a Gov
eroaieDt.ario! coD9quently there could
be no Government. So tbe Sta'es
might say through tbeir Legiclatures
that tbey would not elect Senators.
The veiy abstention from elect
ing Sena.ora would absolutely
destroy the Government, and there
would be io process of compulsion.
0 ', suppiia that the two Houses
were asstnbled in their usual order,
and tbat a bare oaaj rity cf one in
eitber Uotce should firmly bind itself
together aid say tbat it would vote
to odjouro at the moment of meeting
each day, and would do tbat for two
year in succession. In tbat cae
what would happen, and-what would
be tbe neaeure of redreesT Tbe
Government would die. There could
not be f ound ia tbe whole range of
judicial or executive authority any j
remedy arhatever. The Executive
bad no piwer io destroy the Govern
ment Let tbe executive travel but
one in;b beyond tne Hue of law and
there was tbe power of impeachment.
Bnt if the electors among the people
wo tlected Representatives, or if tbe
electors in tbe State LegiHlatures
who creaxed Senators, ur if Senators
and Representatives themselves ab
stain from the performance of tbeir
duty, there was no remedy. At first
view it aiigbt teem remarkable, be
said, tbat a b-dy of wise men like
tbobe who frajied the Constitution
should lave left the whole side of tbe
fabric of Government opea to sucb
deadly assaults, but. on another view
of tbe cae, tbey were wite. What
was tbeir reliance? It was oo tbe
sovereignty of the nation on tbe
crowned and anointed sovereign to
whom all American citizens owned
tbeir allegiance. Tbat sovereign was
tbe body of tbe people of tbe United
States, inspired by tbeir love of
country and their sense of obligation
to public doty.
Up to this boor, be said, our -sovereign
has never failed ns. There
has never been such abstention from
tbe exercise of those primary func
tions of sovereignty as either to crip
ple or endanger tbe Government
And now, for tbe first time in our
history, (and I will e ay, for the first
time in, at least two centuries, in the
7.
APRIL 9, IS79.
history of Eoglisb-speakiog people.)
has it been proposed, or at least in
sisted opon.tbat these voluntary pow
ers shall be used for tbe destruction
of tbe Government. 1 want it no.
oVrstood tbat tbe proposition which
I bave read, and which is tbe pro
gramme announced to the American
people to-day, ia this day, that
if we cannot have our way in a cer
ts ij manner, we will destroy tbe
Government of this country by nsing
tbe voluntary power, not of tbe peo
ple, but of ourselves against tbe Gov
ernment to destroy it. What is our
theory of law ? I; is free consent
Tbat is tbe granite foundation of our
wbole structure. Nothing in this
Republic can be a law tbat has not
tbe free consent of tbe House, the
free consent of the Senate, and tbe
free consent of tbr Executive. Or, if
tbe Executive refuses bis free consent,
then it roust have tbe free consent of
two-thirds of each bodv. Will any
body deny tbat? Will anybody
challenge a line of that statement
tbat free c n-eat is tbe foundation
rock of all onr institutions? And
yet tbe programme announced tw-.
weeks ago was, tbat if the Senate re
futed to consent to the demand of tbe
Hooe, tbe Government should stop
Tbe proposition was then, and tbe
programme id now, tbat although
there is not a Senate to veto it, there
is still a third iodt-pendeDt factor in
toe legislative piwer of the Govern
ment which is to be coerced at tbe
peril of the destruction cf the Gov
ernment. I am not arguing at present as to
tbe merits of your three amendmetits
at all; I cm speaking of your meth
od, aud 1 say they are against tbe
Constitution of our country. I say
that they are revolutionary to tbe
core, and that tbey tend to tbe de
struction of tbe first element of Amer
ican liberty, wbicb ia free consent of
all the powers tbat unite to make tbe
Uw. It is a liule surprising to me
lhat our friends on the other side
rbould bave gone into tbis great con
teet oo so slender a topic as the one
embraced in tbis particular bill. Vic
ut Hugo said in bis description ot
tbe great battle of Waterloo, tbat two
rroie3 were like two mighty giants,
and that sometimes a chip under tbe
beel of oue might determine tbe vic
tory. It may be, gentlemen, tbat
there is merely a chjp noder your
beel, or it may be that you treated it
as a chip on your shoulders. But
whether it is under your heel or on
vour shoulder, it represents a matter
of revolution, and we figbt for the
cb;p as if it were an iogot of the
richest ore. Loud applause on the
Boor end iu toe galleries j
VOTING AGAINST A DEMOCRATIC M EA8
CRE. Let aa see what the chip is. D
tbe gentlemen know what they a-k,
when tbey a.-k us to repeal? Wc
made this law w bttb you now ' de
mand to have repealed io tbe bill?
It was introduced into tbe Senate of
tbe United States by a prominent
Democrat from tbe State of Kentucky,
Mr. Powell."1 It was iosisted upon
to an able and elaborate speech by
biui. It w,aa reported agaiost by a
Republican Committee io that bojy.
It went through days and weeks of
debute in tbe Senate, and when it fi
Dully came to be seed upon io bat
bodv, this is about tbe way tbe vote
ran : Every Democrat in the Senate
voted for it, and every Senator who
voted against it was a Republican.
No Democrat voted agaiost it, but
every Democratic Senator voted for
it. Who were they ? Mr. Hendricks
of ludiana, Mr Davis of Kentucky,
Mr. Jobosoo of Maryland, Mr. Mc
D ugal of California, Mr. Powell of
Kentucky, Mr. Richardson of Illi
nois, aud Mr Saulshury of Delaware
There were fewer Republican Sena
tors w ho voted for it tbaa there were
who vo'ed against it, and only ten
for it. Tne bill then came over to
tbe IlobS ), and was put upon its pas
sage bere A ad bow did the vote
stand in tbis body ? Every Demo
crat in tbe House of R-preseatatives
voted for it 60 of them. Tbe total
number of persons who voted for it
iu tbe Houce was about 113, and of
ibat nuaioer a majority were Demo
crats. Tbe distinguished speaker cf
tbe House, Samuel J. Randall. vo
ted for it. The distinguished Cbair
man cf the Committee of Ways SDd
Means, Fernando Wood, voted for
it. A Distinguished member from
Ohio, now a Senator from that State,
Mr. Peodleion, voted for it. Ev
ery man of leadiug name or frame in
tbe Democratic party, who was then
in tbe Coogress ot tbe United States,
votec' for tbe bill; and not one against
it. In tbis House there were but
few Republicans who voted against
it. 1 was one of the few. Thaddens
S:evens voted against it. Wbat was
tbe ol ject cf tbe bill at tbat time? It
was tbis : It was aileged by Demo
crats tbat, in those days of war, there
was interference with elections in tbe
border Spates. There waa no charge
of any interference in the States
where war did not exist. Bnt lest
there might be some infraction of tbe
freedom of elections, a large number
of Republicans in Congress were nn
wiiliog to give any appearance what
ever of interfering with tbe freedom
of elections, and voted agaiost this
law as ao express-ion of their purpose
ibat tbe Army should not be improp
erly ui-ed ia and about any election.
Tbe proposition now is, that 14 Tears
have passed since tbe war, and net
one petition from BDy American cit
izen has come to ns asking tbat tbe
law be repealed ; not one memorial
has found its way to onr desks com
plaining of tbe law, and now the
Democratic House of Representatives
hold that if tbey are not perniited to
force on another House and tbe Ex
ecutive,, agaiost tbeir will and against
tbeir consent, the repeal of a law that
the Dem-icrats made, it shall be a
sufficient ground for starving tbis
Government. Tbat is tbe proposi
lion we are here debating.
THE PEOPLE SOT COERCED IX 18C0.
I desire to ask the forbearance of
tbe gentlemen on tbe otber side for
remarks tbat I dislike to make, for
tbey will bear witness that 1 bave
in many ways shown my desire tbat
the wounds cf tbe war shall be beat
ed, and tbat tbe grass tbat God plants
over tbe graves of onr dead may sig
nalize tbe return of tbe spriog of
friendship and peace between all
parts of tbe country. Bat I am com
era
pelled by tbe necessity of tbo situa
tion to refer for a moment to a chap
ter of history. The last act of the
Democratic domination in this House
13 years ago was stirring and dra
matic, but it was heroic a&d bieb
souled. Then the Democratic party
said, "If you elect your man as Pres
ident of the Uuited States we will
shoot your Union to death." And
the people of this country, not wil
ling to be eoerced, but believinar tbey
bad a right to vote for Abraham
Lincoln if tbey choose, did elect him
lawfully as President, and then your
leaders, in control f ibe majority of
tbe otber wing of this Capitol, did the
heroic thing ot withdrawing from
their seats, acd your Representatives
withdrew from their seats and flung
down to as tbe gage of mortal battle.
We called it rebellion, but we admit
ted tbat it was honorable, tbat it was
courageous, atd tbat it was noble to
give us tbe fell gage of battle, and
fight it out In tbe opea field. That
cot, flict, and wbat followed, we all
know too well ; and to-day. after 13
years, the book of your dumination is
i peued where yon turned down your
leaves in 18G0. and you are signal
izing your return to power by read
ing the second chapter (not this time
an heroic one) lhat declares tbat if
we do not let you dash a sta'ute out
of tbe book you will not shoot tbe
Union to death as ia the first chap
ter but starve it to death by refus.
ing the ueceseary appropriations.
Applause on tbe Republican side.
Vou, gentlemen, bave it in your pow
er to kiil this movement. You bave
it in your power, by withholding
these two bills, to smite the nerve
centres of our Constitution to tbe
stilloe.-s of death ; and yoa have de
clared your purpose to do it if you
cannot break down the elements of
free consent tbat, cp to tbis time,
have always ruled in tbe Government.

rights of our Govermeut, and declared
tbat any law wbicb could not be pass
ed over a veto by two-thirds vote
bad no right to become a law, and
tbat tbe only redress was an ap
peal from tbe veto to tbe people at tbe
u-xt election. Tbat baa been tbe
Democratic di,c;riu on tbe subject
from the remotest day certaiuly
from Gen. Jickson'a lime until now.
Wbat would you have said io 1861 if
the Democratic majority in tbe Sen
ate, ins ead of takiug tbe course which
it did, h id simply said, "We will put
an araead.ueat on en appropriation bill
declaring the ri-fat of any Stae to
secede from tbe Uiiion at pleasure,
and forhidiog- any iffieer of the

from interfering with auy State in its
purpose to secede?" Suppose tbat
tbo Democratic majority had said
then, "Pa. that on these appropria
tion bill-, or we will refuse supplies
to tbe Government." Perhaps tbey
could have killed the Government
then by starvation. But in the mad
ness of that hour, tbe leaders of tbe
secession Government did not dream
that it would be honorable to pot
their tight on that ground, bat they
walked out on their plan ot battle and
foogbt it out. But now, ia a way
which the wildest of secessionist's
oever dreamed of taking,. it is propos
ed to make this new assault on the
vitals of the nation.
Geotlemen. addressing the Dem
ocratic fide of me House, we bave
tried to c mot the cost. We did try
to count it in 18CI, before we picked
up tbe gage of battle ; and although
no man could then forcast tbe awful
loss i.i blood and treasure, yet, having
started io, we staid there 'to victorv
We simply made the appeal to our
sovereign -to ibat great omnipotent,
public opinion, in America to de
termine whether the Union should be
shot to death. And now, lawfully,
in our right and in our place here, we
pick op tbe gage of battle wbicb yoa
have thrown down, and will appeal
to our common sovereign to sav
whether yon shall break down the
principle of free consent in legislation
at tbe price of starving tbe Govern
ment to death. We are ready to pass
ibese bill for the support of the Gov
ernment at any hour when yoa will
nfler them in the ordinary way, and
if yon offer these other measures as
separate measures, we will meet yon
io the spirit ot fair and fraternal de
bate. Bot you shall not compell ns
nor coerce us even to save this Gov
ernment, until tbe question baa gone
tc tbe sovereign to determine wheth
er it will consent to break down any
of its volontary powers. And on
tbat ground, gentlemen, we plant
ourselves. Loud applause on the
Republican side and in the galleries.
We remiod yen, in conclusion, tbat
this great zeal of yours in regard to
keeping tbe officers of tbe Govern
ment ont pf the States has not been
always yours. I remember that only
six years before tbe war yonr law
authorized Marshals of tbe United
States to go through all your house
bold and hunt for fugittve slaves. It
did not only tbat, but it empowered
Marshals to call a posse comitatns,
and to call upon all tbe bystanders
to join in the chase; and your Demo
cratic aVttorney-Geueral declared, in
an opinion in 185i, that a Marshal
of the United States might call to
his aid tbe whole posse, including
soldiers and sailors and marines of
the United States, to join in tbe
chase, and to bant down tbe fugitive.
Now, fellow-members of the House,
if, for tbe purpose of making slavery
eternal, yoa could send your Marsh
als and could summon posses and use
the armed forces of the United States,
by wbat face or grace enn yoa tell as
tbat in oraer to procure freedom in
elections and peaee at tbe polls yon
caonot use tbe same Marshal with
his armed posse ? Bat I refraic frcm
discussiog tbe merits of tbe proposi
tion. I have tried in tbis harried and
nnsatisfactorj way to give my ground
of opposition to this legislation.
As Mr. Garfield resumed bis seat

tbe Republican side and in tbe gal

HAWJTED.
"I am sorry, sir, bat all the rooms
are taken."
"Tbat is, all bat one," be added,
"and that, I suppose, yoa would not
care to occopy."
"Why not ?" replied I.
"Well yoa see, it's haunted."
I was tired, and besides being nat
urally incredulous, on tbe subject of
ghosts, engaged the room without far
ther conversation.
A very quaint and attractive little
place was the village ot L , nest
ling so snugly In tbe valley, and tbis
inn was a great resort for those who
wished to escape the noise and bustle
ot tbe world, and in consequence, on
this autumnal evening, the inn was
filled.
My luggage having been sent np
to my room, I sat with tbe landlord
io bis bar-room, convening and smo
king tbe fragrant Uavnas which I
brought along with me, thinking I
would not find them in such an out-of-the-way
place.
Among otber topics we soon found
ourselves conversing about the haunt
ed room, and I prevailed on the land
lord to tell the story.
Ue at first hesitated, bat when I
told him that I should like to hear its
history before I occupied it, be began
bis tale :
"It was a stormy night io October,
when a coach came np to the door,
from which there alighted a gentle
man and lady. Tbey bad come with
great baste, for 1 could see by tbe
light of the lantern tbat the horses
were all of a tremble.
"The gentleman waa wrapped in a
heavy cloak, and I could distinguish
nothing but a pair of fierce black
eyes. I did not bave time, however,
to take a long survey, for he strode
imperiously toward me, and demand
ed a room.
The woman, 1 noticed, ratber
dreaded bim, for I could see through
tbe veil a pale, scared look oporj ber
face. 1 assigned tbem tbe room yon
are to occopy, and left tbem.
"In tbe morniog the gentleman ap
peared, and without making any re
mark paid his bill and departed. I
thought it rather strange tbat be
should go alone, bnt something in bis
eyes told me not to address bim about
it.
"no bad scarcely been gone an
hour when the servant came hurry
ing down stairs, almost breathless
with fright, but suddenly she burst
out with a torrent of words, in which
I could only distinguish, the word,
'murdered I'
"Who's mordered ?"
And then I drew from ber tbat tbe
strange lady was lying dead upon tbe
bed.
"Entering tbe room I saw tbat it
was indeed too true ; there, stretched
half across tbe bed, ber bead evident
iy struck with a heavy, blunt instru
ment, lay tbe lady, dead.
"She was buried the naxt day, and
all tbat conld be done to fiod ber rel
atives or the strange gentleman was
in vain.
"Ever afterwards the servants are
afraid to venture near it, because tbey
say it is haunted by tbe i'range
lady."
Thus closed my boat's story, and
as it was quite late I arose and re
quested to be shown to my room.
"Now," said tbe landlord, as be
lighted my candle, "I can accommo
date yoa with a bed upon tbe floor, if
yoa desire it"
"No," said I. for I bad too much
pride to retreat ; "I will take tbe
room "
"Well, if yoa are found dead in
tbe morning it will be no fault of
mine."
We bad reached the door by tbis
time, and bidding me good night my
host departed.
I opened the doer and walked ia.
It was a low room, with tbe old-fash
ioned bed and rush-bottomed eh airs.
and throngh tbe window tbe moon
light cast weird shadows over tbe
room, making it look so ghostly tbat
I muBt confess that bnt for my pride
I should bave gone back ; bot there
was no help for it, so I sat down for
a while and smoked to dispel tbe
thoughts, wbicb would intrude tbem
selves in spite of all that I could pos
sibly do.
Finally closing tbe door, but not
fasten 13 it, for there was no lock, I
jumped into bed.
bull I coo d not sleep lor some
time. I tried all metbods to woo the
drowsr god, till at last I was success
ful. How long I slept I know not; bnt
1 suddenly fonnd myself broad awake,
while there was a strange stillness in
tbe room, almost unnatural, a drift of
air threw a cold chill over me, and I
saw with astonishment tbat mr cham
ber door was open.
Staring with painful intensity, as
if expecting something for I conld
not tarn my eyes away I saw
white-robed figure glide swiftly along
the floor. Directly along the bed it
came.
A moment more, and I felt a cold.
icy touch on my band, and it seemed,
a clutch opon my throat, slowly bat
sorely strangling me. I bad almost
fainted, when, with a sodden, quick
effort, I made a desperate straggle,
and sprang from the bed.
As I did so, I felt myself grasped
about tbe arms again, and eold breath
passed over my face, and tbe word,
"Revenge I" tell upon my ear, and
the figure drew me along tut it stood
opposite tbe fireplace, and touched a
small knob upon tbe wall above,
which disclosed an apartment, and
ia it was a box labeled. "Woodfell
Ames."
A moment more and I was alone,
the suuligbt was pouring into my
chamber. 1 rubbed my eyes and
tried to get together my scattered re
collections ; at last I succeeded, and,
full of bewilderment, presented my
self at breakfast
"Well, so you are alive, after all,"
said ibe landlord, evidently astonish
ed,
"Yes," said I, "I did not experience
much trouble."
Aa I intended to atay at tbe inn
two or three daya I determined to
keep tbe room to see tbe end of tbe
whole catter. Tbe second night
passed as tbe first, and I resolved to
investigate tbe aperture in tbe wall,
if there was any, wbicb I hardly be
lieved. Bat feeling over tbe wall, what
was my astonishment to see tbe ia:c
small door spring open, and disclose
tbe same box.
To seize the box was the work of
an instant, and opening it I perused
tbe papers. They were or some val
uable estate, and were quite old
Tbey were drawn in favor of Ames,
Elmdale Grange.
I said nothing to any ooe, tut kept
my own counsel.
Casually speaking to my best, I
asked bim if be knew of a place call
ed Elmdale, or of any one called
Ames.
"Oh, yes I that's another story of
tbis village, ia wbich old Ames's son
was deprived of the estate oo account
ot tbe loss of some necessary deed,"
he replied. "It waa a downright
shame, for be was a nice, noble young
man, and tbe estate is now in the
hands of a villain !"
"If any man deserves banging, he
doeal" be fiercely muttered. "Yes,
tbe meao, low scheming rascal ! Prtv
pardon my warmth," be aaid ; "but it
is enough to set one crazy thinkug
about lhat young Ames alaviog like
a dog, while this villain lords it in
Ames's lawful wealth."
These events caused me to prolong
my stay, and 1 made up mr mind to
see the wbole mystery tn.irely clear
ed. I took a walk over to Elmdale,
and could not help but admire its
beautiful grounds, and tbe extent of
its domains.
As I passed tbe entrance I perceiv
ed an elegantly dressed man aauuier
ing up tbe wide path, carelessly clip
ping tbe top of the graas wiih his
cane.
Ue, I righdy guessed was tbe pro
prietor. From tbe man's evil face,
and tbe evideut delight wiih which
he used Lis cane, 1 knew tbat the
landlord had not mil-judged him.
Hearing a step behind me. i turned
and beheld a young man, iu tbe at
tire of a laborer, that the proprietor
had beard him also, and tbat he knew
bim was evident, fur be bowed with a
mocking smile.
Tbe young man kept on without
replying to the salutation, wbich,
towever, did not discoucert the care
less stranger, for be walked aa leisure
ly aa before, and disappeared within
tbe house.
These, '.bought I, were the two
contestants for tbe property. "But,"
I said, mentally, looking toward the
house, "I shall have something to do
with it; your triumph shall not be
long."
1 reached tbe inn in time for sap
per, and sought my own room, tbis
time, however, wiih a determination
to keep awake.
When tbe figure appeared I kept
my fears nnder strong control, and
saw wbat 1 bad not noticed before in
my terror, tbat the gbasilv hand
seemed rather like flesh and blood.
It went through tbe same actions as
before ; but aa I seized its hand, not
catching it very tight, it clipped from
my grasp, and leaving in my hand a
ring.
The next morning I examined, un.
observed, the band of the maid who
bad shown me to my room on my ar
rival I knew she was accustomed
to wear a ring, and I saw it waa gone.
Afterward 1 found ber looking quite
atixiously about tbe different rooms.
"Have yoa lost anything?" I ack-
ed.
"Yes, sir; a ring," she replied.
"Is this it ?" at the same time tak
ing tbe ring from my pocket
"Yes," she eagerly returned, and
held oat ber band for it
"Stop a moment," said I. "Do
yoa know Wocdfell Ames?"
"Yes," saia ene, growing quite
pale and seared looking. "W b v, v.
err ene knows bim."
I looked at ber ratber sternly, and
telling her about my discovery, I
managed to work opon ber fears, and
she confessed that she bad stolen tbe
deeds from Ames's library, at the in
stigation of the present proprietor,
Orville Glenn.
She was a servant at Elmdale at
the time, and being dazzled by a
tempting bribe, had committed the
deed.
She was afterwards discharged oo
some ground, and came to the inn to
live. m
Where sbe bad put tbe papers she
bad forgotten, and thinking so much
about tbem she mast have got up
in ber sleep and gone to where she
bad laid them. I informed tbe land
lord of my proceedings, and young
Ames was soon installed in bis prop
er place.
The maid became afterward cured
of her sleep walking, and tbo clam
ber ceased to be "haunted." In re
gard to my host's tale, I am unable
to say whether he was laboring un
der a delirium or not, but I know that
ibe spectre I saw was one of pare
flesh and blood.

A pretty story is told in St Peters
burg. A' government functionary
living in tbe outskirts of tbe Capital,
died a few days ago ia utter destitu
tion, leaving behind bim, motherless
and without friends and relations,
two little ebildreo, one a boy of 7
and the other a girl of 3.
Left in tbe bouse alone, without
money or food, tbe boy did not know
wbat to do to get bread for bis sister.
At last, urged by tbe little one's tears,
he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please,
God, tend me three eopecks (a penny)
to buy my little sister a roll," and
went to tbe nearest church to slip it
in the alms box, believing, in his aim-

pncity, mat tne prayer wouia ream
Ueaven through tbis medium. A
priest passing by observed tbe child
on tip-toe, trying to thrust tbe paper
io, and taking the paper from bim,
read tbe message.
Returning home with the child, be
took tbe little ones to his bouse and
gave them tbe food and clothing tbey
so much needed. The following Sun
day be preached a sermon on eharity,
in which he referred to tbe incident,
and afterwards went round tbe ehorcb
with a plate. When tbe offerings
were counted it was found tbat tbe
congregation bad gived 1,500 roubles,
or nearly $1,000.
Ben Butler tells this story ot a war
incident while be was in command at
New Orleans. A Colonel up in the
Red River region made application
for a farlougb, whiob was refused
bim. Soon after tbe Colonel left bis
command without permission, and
went to New Orleans, where be was
arrested and put in irons as a desert
er. Upon aa intimation tbat he
wished to make aa explanation, But
ler bad bim brought to bis headquar

ly 'what bave yoa to say ia eiplana
lion of your conduct ?'
Well, General, there are two
Jews up yonder who bave some tot
ton tbey want to get through my
lines ; first tbey offered me $o00,
wbicb I refused. Then tbey offered
me 11.000 to let tbem take it through
tbe lines. Then $2,000 and $25,000
and at last they offered a LnnJred

tbey were trotting so near my figure
I thought I'd better leave.
