'Within n hour, by rail from I was on my way to Donaldson-ville and beyond, and was nmaxel to learn on the street of tho death of the man I was polnff to see and the nature of the cano you are invofitlffiatinfj. Here is a paper which I fancy will bo of Treat Importance. " lie took a folded paper from a lonff. pockctbook and laid it before tho judpe. Whllo the latter was reading it, Mr. Dorion stepped down and heartily greeted us. My lawyer had caupht tho name and, leaning over, whispered: "What's your ovidenee, sir?" "Wait a moment," was tho reply, given with a poculiar smilo. "I reckon you'll be satisfied with it." Tho judgo finished reading tho paper, and called to Mr. Dorion. They had a brief whispered conversation. Then the lawyers wcro called up to- WIT FW&$J U' '3K te j. 5 ifj . 7 iff' J TiHl ! t Z - r - k- '&&' sin. dorion iibauttly oitnirrcD us. gether and permitted to read tho paper, the judge adding some comments in a low voice As they returned to their seats, I saw Mr. Garnott's faco wreathed with smilos. "You're safe," ho whispered. I looked at Conrad. Tho face of tlw fiend never 6hone out moro plainly In a human countenanco than in his, as his lawyer communicated to him tho startling news. "I havo bcon mado acquainted with such additional and surprising said tho Judge, in a voice which tho whole room heard, "as make it, in my judgment, both proper and necessary to end this caso hero, so far as relates to tho chargo of abduction of a slave. Tho gentleman who has just ootno into court la the owner and occupant of tho plantation in Mississippi formerly occupied by tho deceased, Pierco Bostock. In a secrot drawer of an old bureau left In that house when he returned to Louisiana; Mr. Dorion, only a few days sinco, found this paper. It purports to bo tho last will and testament of Pierce Hostock, executed by him December 0, 1653. It frees and manumits the person described in it as 'my boloved daughter Coralie, child of tho late Louise and then proceeds to devise and bequeath to her all his estato, real and personal, wherever situated. He names his 'unworthy son, Conrad,' only to declare that ho has by his unfllial his long confirmed evil courses forfeited all right to any part of the testator's property more than ho ha-s already received." "That instrument has never been established," Conrad's lawyer Interrupted. "I am aware of that; and it cannot I "be, in this court But there is reason to think that it can be legally established in tho proper tribunal. Mr. Dorion pronounces the signature of Pierce Hostock genuine. There nro three witnesses, as tho law of Mississippi requires all of whom, strangely enough, are also dead, as Mr. Dorion it informs me. Hut ho pronounces all these signatures genuine, and he saya that numerous witnesses in that vicinity will swear to them. "If this instrument is tho legal act of tho lato Mr. Hostock, not only is Coralie Honfaut named in it a free woman, but she is at this moment tho rightful owner of her father's immense estate. "Whether it will Btand in lav, or not, I have no authority to decide. Other courts must settle that question. And it would bo improper and absurd for me to attempt to pass upon tho cnarge brougnt Here against Dorr until this instrument hab been legally examined and pronounced upon. "I have examined it and considered it far enough to see that a very htrong case can be made for its legality, with all that would result from it. The chargo that is here made is premature, to say the least; nor do I think that, in any event, tho defendant has been guilty of anything more than a technical violation of tho statute. Ho is discharged; also tho lady." The judge smiled graciously upon us. Mr. Garnett capered about the bar, and Mr. Dorion renewed his greetings, mingled with congratulations. Tho popular anger had now turned upon Conrad Hostock, and ho and his friends my withdrew by a rear door, to escape being Iiustlo I. The tlkle multitude proposed to "i- ro t fi'imphant riilV or In When Ilaby was sick, wo gavo her Costorl. When Rho was a Child, she cried for CistorU. When sho became Miss, sho clung to Castor!. Tho When hhe liad Children, sho g? ve them Castorla. thetr shoulders, and it was with some dlfiloultythat I escaped theirattentions. We sadly needed rest, quiet and the company of friends after the tremendous excitement of the last few days; and these we found at the hotel with Mr. Dorion and his eldest daughter. CHJUTIR XXV L last wonDfl. That Pierce Hostock executed tho trill and article of manumission before leaving Mississippi, that ho secreted it in his houie, forgot to take it with him, apparently forgot the fact that ho had done it, and never mentioned it to anybody, were things that, to ray mind, were perfectly consistent with his condition of mind after the deed. Tho witnesses, Mr. Dorion said, were obscure white men of the vicinity. It was not necessary for them to know, and they doubtless were not informed as to tho character of the instrument, nny more than that it was a last will and testament. They were not men much given to gossip, and Mr. Hostock could easily satisfy them not to mention the circumstance. His extreme caution in secreting tho paper was a natural part of tho terror and dread of disclosures about Coralio which possessed him after tho duel. That the will was his deliberate act appeared when it was seen that he, not being a lawyer, had informed himself as to how to execute it logally. The proof was very strong that his mind failed sadly after his removal to La Fourche. and when, the evening before ho died, he was full of anxiety to cxecuto nnother paper, it is not at all strange to me that ho had forgotten tho ono secreted in tho old Mississippi home. This is my theory. Hut I should add that lawyers havo argued long and learnedly over this branch of the case, and that judges havo written opinions sustaining it. I take from my closet a file of the New Orleans Daily Picayune for the yenrs In those feverish times little else but heated politics and the alarming condition of tho nation was seriously talked or read about, but among the things of local interest most often mentioned by tho press of the southern metropolis was tho great suit nt law of Coralie Jewott against Conrad Hostock, involving the novel preliminary question as to whether the plaintiff was a freo woman and entitled to sue and, after that, tho title to the La Foureho plantation, iti slaves and belongings and all other property left by the late Fierce Hostock. Could man givo higher proof than I did of faith in tho justice of his cause? Hefore tho suit was begun I mnrried tho woman who by tho decision might It declared a slave! I have said that the law of Louisiana was cruol to such as she. Lot me hasten to add that in tho end it gave her a full measuro of Justice. The fight was a bitter ono and prolonged for moro than two years. The defendant was In possession and was ably represented. And brisk llttlo Mr. Gnrnctt, on our side, had an opportunity to become acquainted with the "best lawyers of Louisiana." Tho reader will not require me to givo the details of this great legal contest Ho can Cnd them in tho Missis sippi and Louisiana reports of tho time. So largo a public interest is rarely excited in a civil cause. Sympathy was largely in our favor, tho cxcoptlons being of that class which could not bear tho thought that a woman born a slavo should becomo tho owner of ono of the finest plantations in tho state. Hut Corallo'a romantic story had won the ardent people of that section to her support and frequent proffers of material htl'i in tho struggle were mado to us. The generous friendship of Mr. Dorion enabled us to thankfully decline tnem. In tho last days of 1600 we were entirely successful. Courts and Juries wcro with us. Possession was given to my wlfo the day before Christmas of that year; and such a holiday carnival as was given to our overjoyed and affectionate "peoplo" upon tho occasion, think tho whole state could not elsewhere bhow. Tho Dorion family came down to enjoy tho festivities, Miss Celeste bringing Mr. Simon Har-net along, whom Hhe had given (as sho expressed it) tho legal right to abuse her. Conrad Hostock disappeared; where, can only bo conjectured. Humors of men shot in gambling affrays at reached us in such a way that we supposed him to be among them; but his fate, or whether he is3'et alive, are matters of the greatest uncer tainty. Tho happiness of Coralie and I was rudely broken by the storm of civil war. To fow was tho situation moro painful than to me. Of northern birth, attached to the union by habit and early education, all my interests, my tics and associations were at the south. I did as others did. I "went with my state." Heavily, indeed, was the ruthless hand of war laid upon us. Hostilo parties met upon our lands, buildings were destroyed, crops trampled down, stock driven off. of Those years were years of desolation and terror. And all this, thank God, has passed away. Peace smiles again; sectional hate and passion are disappearing; tho union is supreme, and the old flag is venerated at tho south. Slavery has perished, with all in it that was good, and all that was bad. As I look upon tho new order of things, much that I havo written seems liko a dream. Here is our happy home, under tho florid sun, upon tho teeming soil of southern Louisiana. Yet I lovo to tell children of tho glory of our whole vast land. I lovo to take them up to rocky New Hampshire, to show them where their father lived and dreamed his youth, and to make them acquainted with tho rugged character and simple virtues of the peoplo nmoug whom he was reared. I teach them nt tho least tho spirit of tho Now England our poet's noble verse! out, "Tho pine uum whisper to the palm, north wind break the tropic calm, And with tho dreamy languor of the tine The north's keen virtue blend, ad strength to bounty Join." the ejjd.

The Scriptural lesson illustrating our topic tells the story of the temptation nf Jius by satau. "Then wan Jeous led up of ths Spirit into tho wilderness to be tempted of the devil" (Math, iv, 1). This utory is very familiar to ns nil, and from it vr may draw many nseful lessons concerning our tcuiptn tionb nnd how wo may avoid them. We may learn from this temptation of Christ : 1. When wo may expect to be tempted. Tho temptation of Jons took pUcc immediately after IHb baptism. Bcforo tho multitude Ho had been proclaimed nnd baptized iih tho coming Messiah, nnd even God had claimed Him ns His Son, and tho Spirit had descended upon Hun. It was a moment of triumph unci success. Heaven and earth joined in honoring Him, and jut:!icu Ho was tempted. Satan often attacks us at the snino moment. It is in the fliuh of victory ns often ns in tho discouragement of defent thnt tho temptor whispers words to ns to which wo should turn u deaf ear. Then we aro in a fair way to Iw easily overcome, for inuuy who can bear up under defeat and fuilure cannot etand success and prosperity, but in such times fall easy victims to sin. In timo of prosperity nnd succes let us wntch aud pray against temptation and thus avoid it. 2. Where wo may expect to bo tempt ed. When Christ was hungry, satan tempted Him with bread. When he saw tho glory and splendor of tho world nt a glance, he tempted Him with power nnd influence. This fact hna an Ut-son for us. Just at these .line, these points, if wo may uso tho expression, wero tho wonkest and muet ucrablo places in Christ's character. Satan alwnys strikes nt tho weakest point in a man's character. Ho attacks ono man in adversity and another in prosperity, ono by drink nnd another by sensuality, ono through wealth nnd another through promiso of power and prominence among men. To avoid him wo bhould study our chnracters, learn what nro our weuk points and them. 3. How wo may avoid or overcomo onr temptations. Jesus used but ono weapon in His defense, nnd that was tho word of (iod it was tho sword of tho Spirit. "It is written again," was His thrico repeated answer to Satan's quotations from tho Scriptures. A thorough kuowledgo nnd judicious uso of them is a grcnt sufeguard against and n powerful agent in overcoming temptation.

At n recent Maino convention it was euggpsted, after Alifea Jones had told tho story of tho Floating Society of Christian Endeavor, that Christian should havo a tramp steamer, manned by Christian EndcavorerB from captain to messboy, and that this trnmp steamer should go nbout from ship to Bhip, carrying Chribtian Endeavor to tho world's navies. Tho Methodist Endeavorers of Bristol, Conn., aro taking up temperance work in n very vigorous fashion. At Santeo Agency, Nob., is ono of the finest and most useful Indinn schools tho wholo country. This Echool, supported by tho American Mlhsionary society, has frequently bcon helped by generous gifts from tho Christian Endeavor a societies. Rov. W. P.

"Christian Endeavor church, No. 2," built by Reformed Endeavorers and Eitiintcd at Wakonda, S. D., has just formed n Christian Endeavor society. Tho duties of tho treasurer do not end with receiving nnd paying out money, but ho should bo ablo to devise somo good plan of raising money. Said a speaker at tho Portland Christian Endeavor convention, "Wo need pledge in tho Junior society, t'lso work for tho children will all ravel and wo cannot catch up tho Btitches."
