Tho man too! c. his fio'ich hut aud slowly howed until his licad was? almost to his kuccs. Then, as he straightened np, he said iu a clear voice: "Mr. Edward Kunmore of Now York city, on behalf of my friends aud myself I offer you a humble apology and beg yonr forgiveness for the fools wo have made of ourselves. At our meeting this aftemoou iu Black Man's swamp we voted to have a medal struck for each member of our crowd, which he pledged himself to wear as evidence that he's the hi^ :~t chump in the wholo state of Mississippi. Cy aud me here are to have the biggest medals, each 'bout the size of a flapjack, 'cause we're the champions. "It's cmiecessary to go over the lively iroe«?».-(iiiisisof the last day and night, 'cause 1 reckon your meni'ry don't need any roiiesIJue as to the same. We all took you fcr Hank Lever, which the sanio ym s'nonl ^j't be 'shamed of, fur he's the ta-.-t 1 king as well as the meanest nim in the comity. "Yon know the story ,nu told as 'how yv.i 1 or.ght the colonel's chestnut of hi 111 at the crosroads. None of us didn't b'iieve it, for which the same you are p:tr!lv to blame, being as how you- hu'.i'i.rcd the idee that you was

Hank. But it happened that when you bought that horse of him there was a »n who seed you do it, He was out that day nirt of prospeu ing like when he obsarved jou two. ai:d he hid 'mong the tut at the side of the road, heerd what passed atwet-u you and seed the money paid over. The reason why this spectator didn't mention the affair sooner was that he was afeard his presence in that quarter would throw 'spiciou on to him as regards chickens, for the aforesaid gentleman was the darky Pete, where you spent a part of last night, and we've promised Pete not to ask him any troublesome questions on account of the sarvice he's done to political

eoonermy and good government, so to speak. "Pete told his story to Cy here today, and we had a meeting in the wood.- to consider things. We was all as hotfooted as ever after yon, for though Cy warf present he couldn't tell what Pete had told him, 'cause he'd promised he. wouldn't. When Cy seed as how there was 110 way of stopping us, he got Pete to tell the whole thing and throw himself 011 to the mercy of tho court. "Waal, that made music. It opened our eyes. We come nigh getting into a light as to our claims as to which was the biggest fool. After along argyment that cm mo mighty uigh blows it was unanimously agreed that Cy and me was the champioas. "Tlioj.beinu: settled, which I hope voir won't dispute, we had another long talk aa to what was tho right thing to do. Finally we agreed that we'd eomo out here in a body and offer our apolergies, and hero we am."

And Dungan agr.in bowed low, Cy Walters imitating him to some extent. "Have you it in your heart, Mr. Kenmore, to let np on us':'' "You were rather impulsive last night and made things somewhat unpleasant. but: you have done the honorable thing, and I cordially accept your apology."

Dungan turned so as to faee the crowd, aed. rai-iug his hatul. euid in a commanding voice: ... "Gents, proceed!"'

And thou oame the (•tartiing discovery that the only two men in the party who carried firearm-, were he and Walters. Tho others were provided with a bass drum and brass instruments, for, strange as it may s.:em, Aldine and its immediate neighborhood had after long labor evolved a brass band whose efforts were probably one of the reasous why 110 stranger had settled iu that part of the 00 on try for several years.

The musicians were waiting for the signal, and instr.atly the crash came. Tho i\": 'iet was desif. .ring, and the worst: of it was iL'i'.t while several were trying to play "iii.'iio"' two others were'splitting their cheeks with "Suwanee Ri\cr, ami the: coiuctist, probably in com liti r.t to jne, was going might and r-rn rn Yankee Doodle," while the bass ilvum tried to keep time with all. soon as Dungan could make his shouts heard ho stopped the racket. "Gent«. Pm 'stonished and grieved. It was anreed 011 the road that you was to play them three tunes, but not at the same time. Trwag'in. hut tlx on the one that you want, so that tho sweet music may befit the occasion."

The mistake was quickly rectified, and the lively notes of "Dixie" rang out on tho night air, followed in turn by the two that have been mentioned. Perhaps it was because of the happy circumstances, but I am free to confess that never before or since that night have the melodies impressed me so favorably.

Colonel Mansley promptly accepted the situation. He compelled nil to en^ter his hospitable mansion, where the servants were .summoned and kept, busy furnishing wine and lunch, and good wishes were profuse all round. I was toasted again and again until I began to ask myself whether it was not worth all I had passed through for the sake of learning what good fellows tho.-e men were. And yet there were some phases of those 24 hours from which I am sure I should have shrunk.

Last Christmas Colonel Mansley came north to spend the holidays, as is his custom, with his daughter aud me. After his departure my wi^'e and I were sitting alone, when I said: "Esther, there has been a question in my mind that I have long wished to ask you." "And why. my dear husband, have you waited to do so?" "Perhaps because I feared the answer, and vet why should I? It is this. On that night, several years ago, when you came to the inn at Aldine and raised the window for me, were you surprised r" "Surprised l.y what./" "At finding the prisoner was I instead of Henrv Bever?''

FOR BLOOD POISON.

Contagious Blood Poison, for the disease is be-' their skill. Swifts Specific—

There is not the slightest doubt that the doctors do more harm than good in treating Contagious Blood Poison many victims o? this loathsome disease would be much better off to-day if they had never allowed themselves to be dosed on mercury and potash, the only remedies which the doctors ever give for blood poison.

The doctors are wholly unable to get rid of

this vile poison, and only attempt to heal up the outward appearance of the gease—the sores and eruptions. This they do by driving the poison into the IjBtem, and endeavor to keep it shut in with their constant doses of potash Hid mercury. The mouth and throat and other delicate parts then break out latosrires, and the fight is continued indefinitely, the drugs doing thesystem

I had large spots all over my. y, and these soon broke out into running sores, and 1$ ured all the suffering which this vile disease prouces. I decided to try S. S.

When news reached our homo of yonr arrest, of your danger, of tho belief that yon were he and of your earnest denials, I knew you spoke the truth, aud I determined, if it was in .my power, to savo you. Perhaps I should have taken a different method, but I was terrified by the imminence of your danger. I did what I did knowing from the moment I stole from the house under tho escort of Erastus that you were what you claimed to be—your own self and tho best husband that ever lived in all the wide world." "Thank God," was my fervent response as I fondly kissed her, "the fly at last is removed from the ointment!"

On last Saturday evening in the vicinity of White Church there was seen a lad, some thirteen years of age, hoppi n* and crawljjg along the public highway tbe best he could with both hands and feet securely bound. He was making every effort to get to the house of a neighbor to have the cutting cords unloosed, which had been pl8cad there by an unfeeling mother and her wayward daughter. Such conduct shou'd not be tolerated. If chastisement is necessary Jet tbe parents alone attend to it in a proper manner, and not with tbe aid of one who has long since lost all respect for public decency.
