DESTROYING A Will.

On the death of Col. taking, no one waa more surprised at his not having left a. will than Mr. Alfred.Laking, his nephew and heir-at-law. That gentle* man had the best reasons tor knowing that his uncle was not well disposed tow&rdsihim for some years past. The truth ww.that Alfred jrtring had once been guilty of an ct oi meanness, which his ^rnbJa^ev^r iorgave, and theirfore the fortunate heir had not expected to benefit by his uncle's death. But even outsiders, who knew nothing of the cause of the entrangement between the colonel and his nephew, were amazed at the old gentleman dying intestate. He had so frequently expressed his determination of pre venting his.nephew from succeeding to his property and had made so many wills at different times with that object that liis intestacy caused universal astonishment. Itrwas generally supposeS that his somewhat sudden death had frustrated his testamenary intentions, or else that, at the last moment, lie had realized the force of the old adage that blood is thicker than water, and had been contented to permit his nephew to inherit in the ordinary course of law.

But while Mr. Alfred Laking received the congratulations of his friends with equanimity, and apparently acquiesced in the" general opinion that he was a very lucky individual, he did not by any m«fins feel secure of his inheritance.

For the firgt few months after his uncle's death he was perpetually haunted by the dread that his elaborate precautions would be thrown away but when a year had passed he began to breathe more freely. The chances were, he thought, that, if a will existed, it would have turned up by this time, or. else it would probably rot away in its hiding-place.' Thus by degrees'the phantom conjured up by his pusillanimous imagination became less appalling, until one day his anxiety waa revived by a very ominous incident."

A shabbily-dressed, middle-aged man called upon him and said-he had an important, communication to make. He gave the name of Crumber. and Alfred Laking then recollected that he was a clerk in the office of the solicitor whom he'had employed to wind up his uncle's estate, lliis circumstance seemed reassurihg, for Alfred Laking naturally supposed the man had been sent with some message from his master relating to business matters. "I presume Mr. Baker asked you to call he said nervously. "No, sir. The fact is I left Mr. Baker's office some months a^jo. I am at present in another situation," replied the man. "Whatis your business then?" inquired Mr. Laking, with increased uneasiness. "I suppose we are quite alone, sir, andean fiot be overheard?" said tho man, mysteriously. "You can speak out, though can not imagine what you can have to say that is so important," said Mr. Laking, glancingtfc see thutrthe door was closed. "When 1 left Mr. Baker's oflicc I took a situation with another solicitor," said Crumber, lowering hisvoice. "The gentleman I am now with is Mr. Mayne, of Lincoln's inn-fields. I don't know whetherA'bu'ever heard of him, sir."

Alfred Laking'*Started, and turned deadlv pale. He Happened to know that his uncle had consulted thip gentleman professionally at a comparatively recent date, and he therefore instinctively guessed the nature of the revelation in store for him. "No! I never heard of Mr. Mayne, and I don't believe my uncle did," ho replied, almost fiercely. '•Well, sir, you Bee yoar uncle did not always consult you about his affairs," returned Mr. Crumber, rather disrespectfully. "At any rate, he knew Mr. Mayne, who propared a will for him shortly before he died." "How do you know?" demanded Alfred Laking, too startled to conceal hiu agitation. "Because I've seen it. I've not only seen it, but I've read it. Your name isn't mentioned in that will, Mr. Laking," said the man, with a grin. "A very fine story," said Alfred Laking, with a forced laugh. "Pray,* how is it that Mr. Mayne has never written to inform me of the alleged will?" "Because, in the first place, I doubt if he is aware of the colonel's death but, if he is, he has probably forgotten that the colonel left nis will with him, for his memory isn't what it was," said Mr. Crumber. "I don't believe a word of what you sav," he cried, suddenly rising from his seat and confronting the unwelcome visitor. "Your story is a tissue of falsehoods." "I was afraid vou might think so, sir,

I ventured to bring the will with me," said tjie man slyly. "What! have you actually stolen it?" cried Alfred Laking. "I have it here, anyway," returned Crumber, coolly, as he produced a document from hEf pocket. "I can put it back where I took it from within an hour. Of course, it is no earthly use to me." "Let me see it," easd Alfred Laking, in a hoarse voice, seating himself in his chair again.

Mr. Crumber unfolded the document and glanced at it, apparently reflecting whether it would be wise to I part with it. But after a pause he laid it on the desk, saying:

f. .V-T

"I'm treating yon like a ge^emwjtife -sir. ^Yoa mnstTmflKsMo retQWltw IBTsxi me. "Yes, ves," said Alfred Laking, stretching'out his hand impatiently.

Some moments elapsed before the agitated gentleman could compose himself sufficiently to take in th^rronVt^-vc tents of the will. He first turheg^oj the final page, which bore tEe-'s* ture of the testator and the attei witnesses. V1

So far as he could judge the? Sigiytures were genuine, and the doiument had evidently been prepared several month ago, tlie edges of the pSfier being discolored and the ink was dated a few weeks before ing's death, and was,'thereMre^jftjljlf probability, the last will he had made,. When he came to read it .carefully,, Alfred Laking's lingering liopfi^hatj the document might be a forgeiy \viu quickly dispelled. From LintfixnSOL evidence it was undoubtedly genuine, the names of various persons and places being mentioned which no stranger couTd have fabricated. The colonel appeared to have left his property to some distant relative^, subject to a'few charitable bequests. The nephew'B name was not mentioned, and an old military friend wasappointed executor.

Mr. Alfred Laking read the will over two or three times, keeping his face concealed from Mr. Crumber, who manifested & good deal of impatience. At last he aroused, himself from his unpleasant reflections, folded up the fatal document and lixed a half-iright-ened, half-defiant gaze upon his tor"What do von propose to do with this?" he inquired, nervously. "Well, sir, that depends upon you," replied Crumber. "If you advise me to put it back and remind the governor of it, well and good."

But Alfred Laking did not hasten to advise this straightforward course. He kept silent for along time, fidgeting nervously with the document he held in- his band, and at length Crumber spoke. "Yb'u see, sir, nobody knows of the existence of the will but yon and me. SiiDposing we were to throw it upon the fire yonder, who would be the wiser?" "How dare you Buggest such a thing?" cried Alfred Laking, with a show of virtuous iudignation. "It would be a criminal offense.", "I suppose "you wouldn't split on me, sir, if I was to do it," suggested Crumber, speaking almost in a whisper. "The fact is, sir, I'm thinking of emigrating. I don't mind the risk. Give me a thousand pounds and the trick is done."

It was a sudden determination,taken half in desperation and half from sheer fright. Tne will was destroyed, and early the next, morning Mr. Crumber started for America from Liverpool with JC1.000 in gold in his pocket.

Alfred Laking went and saw him off, having, in iact, declined to hand over the money until he was safely on board ship. Upon his return to London, feeling, in spite of his misgivings, more relieved and lightheartea than he had done since his uncle's death, his exuberant spirits received a Budded check in consequence of the receipt of a letter from Mr. Mayne, which ran thus:

coi.n's-Inn-Fielis.

Sik: I formerly acted professionally for your late uncle, Col. Laking, and shall be glad if you will give me a call at your earlist convenience on a matter "of importance.

Yours faithfullv, Jxo. 1). JIayxi:.

Accordingly he presented himself at Mr. Mayne's office the morning after receiving the letter, looking very pale and nervous, though making every effort to appear at ease. "I'wrote to you, Mr. Laking," said the ""bid lawyer, when they lind exchanged greetings, "because I have reason to believe that you have received a communication from a man named Crumber." "No," murmured Alfred Laking.

His answer appeared to cause Mr. Mayne some surprise, for the old gentleman stared at him through his spectacles for a second or two, and then said, rather sharply: "Name of Crumber. JThe man was a clerk iri"my oBice'unTil recently."

The Ways of Servants.

_V New England senator who arrived at his Washington residence last week was surprised to find that the servants who had been left in charge had kept the handsome mansion open during his absence as a boarding house, and had accommodated boarders both white and black.

There is good reason for supposing that undiscovered performances of that general description are numerous at the capital certainly the ciooked devices of New York, servants during the quiet of summer would fill a vol-

A 'SCRAPPING MATCH

occurred between two members of the party, and some heavy blows were given and taken. Coburn seemed startled and scared by tho fight, and remarked as the combatant* were separated and the aggressor yanked out of the place: "My %d. I don't want to be mixed up in anythfng like this." Time was when he would have taken' a hand in, but six years in Sing Sing have made another man of hica. Arrangements will at once be made to give Coburn a benefit at the'Madison Square Garden, at which John L. Sullivan will certainly "appear and spar with the beneficiary.. Coburn is a better man physically than when the prison doors closed upon him five

years ago last March, and in the present pugilistic rage it is not at all unlikely that after a brief time spent in recovering his former proficiency in the fistic art he may once more come to the front as a ring fighter.

Asked whether ho hail ever seen Mr. John L. Sullivan, the -pride of Boston's sporting comm unity," Coburn answered that Sullivan Had visited him in Sin« Sing prison. "He is, I think," added Mr. Coburn, "a very fine young gentleman, and he seemed to feel very kindly toward me." "Well, Joe," said an old admirer, "you don't look

day older than you

did when they took you away." "Well," replied Mr. Coburn, and he grimly smiled, "I am older. I am nearly 48 years of age or rather, I was 47 years of age last July."

"Certainly not," repeated Alfred Laking. He intended his reply to bo bold and emphatic, but the attempt was a miserable failure. There was a quiver in his voice, and his eyes instinctively sought the carpet. "A-hem!" coughed Mr. Mayne, in an unpleasantly significant manner "The fact is," he resumed, "your uncle made a will shortly before he died, which he left in my charge but a fow days later he called and revoked it. He gave as his reason that he did not wish his animosity against you to continue after his death. "You don't say that!" exclaimed Alfred Laking, with a start of genuine surprise. "He revoked tho will by tearing off the sighatures on the last page," continued the lawyer, still looking his visitor in the face, "and the mutilated document being, of course, mere waste papqr, was tied to the draft, and put away in an old press. This man Crumber, whom I discharged a few weeks ago for dishonesty, seems to have purloined the mutilated document, and thinking that he might meditate attempting to impose upon yeu, I conceived it to be my duty to warn you. lie might, for instance, have restored the last page by means of forgery, and passea off the will upon yon'as valid and subsisting." "The infernal scoundrel!" cried Alfred Laking, voilently, forgetting his caution, wben he thought of his thousand pounds. "Yes," I'm afiaid he is that," said the lawyer dryly. So you see, Mr. Laking, it was kindness thrown away upon your part to take the trouble to send him off from Liverpool yesterday. I wish you a good morning, sir."

Galena, 111., Dec. 2.—To the editor of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat: Four men sat down to a game of cards at the military post of Prairie du Chien in 1S34. The game was 5-cent ante "draw poker," a favorite amusement among General Taylor's officers at that time. Ono of the young gentlemen was a United States officer, a lieutenant tlion stationed at that point, and his name 'wm Jefferson Davis, the individual who subsequently became president of the southern confederacy. The name of the second gentleman was Captain W. A. Warren, now a resident of Bellevue, Jackson county, La. the third, John Lor rain, then assistant paymas. ter in the employ of the Hudson Bay fur company, at present an honored citizen of Galena and the. fourth, a gentleman by the name of Harrison, a southerner, and noted in early days as a duolist-. During the progi-ess of the game Harrison defected Davis cheating by skillfully, secreting cards up his coat sleeve. Hot words passed between tho two men, which resulted in his slapping Davis square in the lace with the back of the hand. The latter failed to resent the terrible insult in anv way, and was berated by his friends and follow-offi-cers for his cowardice. Davis' failure to challenge Harrison was probably owing to the fact that the latter was a dead shot with' the pistol at twenty paces, and had as much dare-devil courage in his nature as any other cutthroat in tho laiifl.

Jeflerson Davis was frequently in Gelena during bis period of duty at Frairie du Chien, and was welt ac? quainted with many of our early sgtlers. Among the nqmbpr was tfte late Redden Bennett, with whom he was especially intimate. Jt was oiintoiflftry for him fo come down to Galena every two or three weeks, and spend his time while here drinking rum and molasses, of which he was very fond. Be could hold and stand up under more liquor than any other man in* the west, at that time, and during his frolics with his friend Bennett, who was also a "likely drinker" (although one of the most honorable of men),

Adelina Patti, when I first saw her, in lSttO, at a ball given in honor of the Prince of Wales in Montreal or Quebec, was a dark-sk inned, dark-eyed girl, plump as a partridge, with beautiful teeth and as ,full of .the old harry^as any girl of eighteeii ever met.v iAs I saw her this |mdrning on BrWtway, she iH a matronly lady with a charming expresflion on her very beautiful face, a woman of great jxTrsonal dignity, conscious that her stature is below the proper height and obviously endeavoring tojmake up for that deficiency by a perfectly erect and somewhat strained carriage of body. Although it was not a cold day, Patti was dressed as she might be in the depth of winter.

A Bridal Coaplc Doused. Patereon Press. A newly-married pair, who arrived on their honeymoon trip at a eelpbrated Scotch wateripg-place whop accommodation was at a premium, had a mattress spread for them by a compassionate inn-keeper in one of his bath rooms. In the middle of the night the house was alarmed by loud BbriekB proceeding from the nuptial chamber. What was the matter? Well, this: The young bride, wishing to ring for a servant, nad. caught holq of whatghe supposed'to be the, bell rope, and pulled it sharply. Unhappily for her and her. spouse, it waa the cord of the shower bath over their heads, and forthwith down plunged such a delug#of cold water as would throw a damper upon the most demot-ed'honey-making couples. Her husband, in dismay, caught frantically at another c^rd on his side of the extemporized couch, but the only response was an equally liberal deluge of water, this time nearly'boiling hot. The unhappy pair then screamed in unison. When the servant^ c$pae they- found thp floor of the "room flooded with ,\\'$ter, and the wife was perched like a monkey on her husband's back, uttering the most lamentable cfipg, ^hile her sqod man Waa fuelling ^bout in the qar-k, trying his peat to gnd the
