TOM SAWYER'S PRIZE BIBLE. BT NARK TWAIN. Sabbath school hours were from 9 until half past 10, and then church service. Two of the children always remained for the sermon voluntarily, and the other alway3 remained too for stronger reasons. The church's high backed, uncushioned pews would seat about 30) persons. The edifice was but a small, plain affair, with a sort of pine board tree-box on top of it for a steeple. At the door Tom dropped back a step and accosted a Sunday dressed comrade: "Say, Billy, got a yaller ticket?" "Yes." "What'll you take for her'." "What'll you give?" "Piece of lickrish ard a fish-hook." ' "Less see 'em." Tom exhibited. They were satistactory.and the property changed bands. Then Tom traded a couple of white alleys for three red tickets, and some trifle or other for a couple of blue ones. He waylaid other boys aa they came, and went on buying tickets of various colors ten or fifteen ruinates longer. lie entered the church, now, with a swarm of clean and noisy boys and girls, proceeded to his seat and started a quarrel with the first boy that came handy. The teacher, a grave, elderly man, interfered; then turned his back a moment and Tom palled a boy's hair in the next bench, and was absorbed in his book when the boy turned around; stuck a pin in another boy, presently, in order to hear him . say "Ouch!" and got a new reprimand . from , his teacher. Tom's whole class were ot. a pattern restless, noisy and troublesome. When they came to recite their lessons, not one of them knew his verses perfectly, but had Tiea tnrougn, ana eacn got nis rewara in small blue tickets, each with a passage of Scripture on it; each blue licket was pay for two verses of the recitation. Ten blue tickets equaled a red one, and could be exchanged ior it; ten red tickets equaled a yellow one; for ten yellow tickets the superintendent gave a very plainly bound Bible ; worth forty cents in those easy times) to the pupil. How many of my readers would have the industry and application to memorize two thousand verses, even for a Dore Bible? And yet Mary had acquired two Bibles in this way it was the patient work of two years and a boy of Oernian parentage had won four or fire. He once recited three thousand verses without stopping, but the strain upon his mental faculties was too great, and he was little better than an idiot from that day forth a grievous misfortune for the school, for on great occasions, before company, the superintendent (aa Tom expressed it) had always made this boy come out and ''spread himself." Only the older pnpila managed to keep their tickets and stick to their tedious work Ion? enough to ret a Tiihle. and so the de - . . r - , i a a?livery of one of these prizes was a rare and noteworthy circumstance; the successful pupil was so great and conspicuous for that day that on the spot every scholar's heart was fired with a fresh ambition that often lasted s couple of weeks. It is possible that Tom's mental stomach had never really hungered far one of those prizes, but unquestionably his entire being had for many 1 a day longed for the glory and eckt that came with it, . Indue course the superintendent stood up In front of the pulpit, with a closed hymnbook in his hand and his forefinger inserted i between its learsa, icd commanded attention. When a Sunday-school superintendent makes his customary little speech, a hymn'book In the hand is as necessary as the inevitable sheet of musie in the band of a singer who stands forward on the platform and sings a solo at a concert though .why is a mystery, for neither the hvmn-book nor the , sheet of music is ever referred to by the i sufferer. This superintendent was a slim " creature of 35, with a sandy goatee and abort sandy hair; he wore a stiff-standing eollar whose upper edge almost reached his - ears and whose sharp points curved forward abreast the corners of his mouth a fence that compelled a straight lookout ahead, and . a turning of the whole body when a side vi'aw mtoa pan n t-tia r V ? n vara a iwrtrvAt W V W TV BKS lUllif Uli TI 0jO S ITC A VU s spreading cravat, which was as broad and as long as a bank note, and had fringed endf ; . his boot toes were turned sharply up, in the fashion of the day, like sleigh runners an effect patiently and laboriously produced by the young men sitting with their toes pressed against a wall for hours together. Mr. Walters was very earnest of mien and very sincere and honest at heart; and he held sacred things and places in such reverence, and so separated them from worldly matters, that unconsciously to himself his Sunday-school voice had acquired a peculiar intonation which was wholly absent on week days. He began after this fashion: "Now children, I want you all to ait up just as straight and pretty as you can, and give me all your attention for a minute or two. There that is the way good little boys and girls should do. -I see one little girl who is looking out of the window. I am afraid she thinks I am out there somewhere perhaps up in one of the trees making a speech to the little birds. Applausive titters. I want to tell you how good it , makes me feel to see so many bright, clean . little faces assembled in a place like this, learning to do rigbt and be good." And so forth and so on. 1 1 is aot necessary to set down the rest of the oration. It was of a pattern which does not vary, and so it is familiar to us alL The latter third of the speech was marred by the resumption of - fights and other recreations among certain of the bad boys, and by fige tings and whisperings that 'extended far and wide, wash- ' ing even to the bases of isolated and incorruptible rocks like Öid and Mary. But now every sound ceased suddenly, with the subsidence of Mr. Walter's voice, and the con- . elusion of the speech was received with a burst of silent gratitude. A good part of the whispering had been occasioned by an event which was more or less rare the entrance of visitors: Lawyer Thaxher accompanied by a very feeble And ( aged man; a thin, portly, middle-aged gentleman with iron-gray hair; and digni fied lady who was doubtless the lattera wile. The ladr was leadinr a child. Toot had been restless and full of chafings and refining; conscience smitten, too he could not meet Amy Laurence's eye, he could not brook her loving eaze. But when he saw this small new-comer bis soul was all ablas with bliss in a moment. The next moment he was "shoving off" with all his might cuffijg boys, pulling hair, making faces In a word, using every act that seemed live ly to fascinate a girl and win her applause. His exaltation had but one alloy the mem ory of bia humiliation in this angel's ajarden and that record in sand was fast wash ing out, uader the waves of happiness that

iwx sweeping ovvr it now.

The visitors ware given the highest seat of honor and as soon as Mr. Walter's speech was finished, he introduced them to the school. The middle-aged man turned out to be a prodigious personage no less a. one than the county judge altogether the most augusts creation these children had ever looked upon, and they wondered what kind of material he was made, of and they half wanted to hear him roar and were half afraid he might, too. He was from Constantinople, 12 miles away, so that be had traveled and seen the world; these very eyes had looked upon the county courthouse, which was sa:'d to have a tin roof. The awe which these reflections inspired was attested by the impressive silence and the ranks of btaring eyes. This was the great Judge Thatcher, brother of their own lawyer. Jeff Thatcher immediately went forward, to be familiar with the great man and be envied by the school. 'It would have been music to his soul to hear the whisperings: "Look at him, Jim! He's a going up there. Say ljok! he's a going to shake hands with him he is shaking hands with him I By jings, don't you wish you was Jeff?" Mr. Walters fell to "showing off," with all sorts as official bustlings and activities giving orders, delivering judgments, discharging direction here, there, everywhere that he could find a target The librarian

showed off running hither and thither with his arms full of books and making a deal oi the sd! utter and fuss that insect authority delights in. The young lady teachers "showed atr' bending sweeny over pupus that were lately being boxed, lifting pretty warning fingers at bad little boys and patting good ones lovingly. The young gentlemen teachers "showed off" with small scoldings and other little displays of authority and fine attention to discipline; and most ef the teachers of both sexes found business up at the library by the pulpit; and it was business that frequently had to be done over again two or three times (with much seeming rexation). The little girls "showed off" in various viyt, and the little boys "showed off" with such diligence that tue air was wick wi th paper wads and the murmur of ecufflines. And above it all the great man sat and beamed a majestic judicial smile upon all the house, and warmed himself in the sun of his own grandeur for he was ''showing off" too. . There was only one thing wanting to make Mr. Wal ten's ecstacy complete, and that was a chance to deliver a prize Bible and exhibit a prodigy. Several pupils had a few yellow tickets but none had enough he had been around among the star pupils Inquiring. He woulds have given world, now, to nave that German lad back again with a sound mind. ' And now at this moment, when bone was dead, Tom 8awyer came forward with nine yellow tickets, nine red tickets and ten blue ones, and demanded a Bible. This was a thunderbolt out or a clear sky. waiters was not eioectine an application from this source for the next 10 years. But there was no getting around it here were the certified checks, and they were good for their . face. Torn was therefore elevated to a place .with the judge and the other elect, and the great news was announced from headquarters It was the most stunning surprise of the de cade, and so profound was the sensation that it lifted the new hero up to the judicial one's altitude, and the school had two marvels to gaze upon in place of one. The boys were all eaten up with envy but tho.je that suf fered the bitterest pangs were those wno perceived too late that they themselves had contributed to this hated splendor by trad ing tickets to Tom for the wealth ne naa mnwi in sellint? whitewashing Drivileces. These despised themselves, as being the duped of a wily fraud, a guileful snake in the grass. The prize waa delivered to Tom witu as much effusion as the superintendent could pamp up under the circumstances; but it ficked somewhat of the true gush, for Wie poor fellow's instinct taught him that there was a mystery here that could not well bear the lieht nerhans: it was fiimolv nreDOsterous that this boy had warehoused 2,000 sheaves of scriptural wisdom on his premises a dozen would strain his capacity without a doubt. A v Lawrence was Droud and glad, and she tried to make Tom see it in her face, but he wouldn't look.' She wondered: then she was just a grain troubled; next a dim susj picion came , and went came again; she watched: a furtive ttlance told her worlds, and then her heart broke, and she was jealous and angry, and the tears came, and she bated everybody, Tom most oi aii, sue thought. '. Tom was introduced to the judge, but his tonerue was tied, his breath would hardly come, his heart quaked partly because of the awful greatness ot tne man, dui mainiy because he was her parent. He would have liked to fall down and worship him, if it were in the dark. The judge put his hand on Tom's head and called him a fine little man. and asked him what his name was. The tfry stammered, gasped and got it out: "Tom." "OU, no, not Tom it is" Thomas." "Ah. that's it. I thought there was more to it, maybe. That's very well. But you've another one, I dare say, and you'll tell it to me, won't you 7" Tell the gentleman your other name, Thomas," said Walters. "And say tr you musn't forget your manners." "Thomas Sawyer sir. "Tnafs it! That's a good boy. Fine boy. Fine, manly little fellow. Two thousand verses is a great many very, very great many. And you never can be sorry for the trouble vou took to learn them; for knowl edge is worth more than anything there is in the world; it's what makes great men and good men; you'll be a great man and a good man -yourself some day, l nomas, ana men you'll look back and say, 'It's all owing to my dear teachera that taught me to learn it's all owing to the good superintendent, who encouraged me, and watched over me, and gave me a beautiful Bible, to keep and have it all for my own always it's all owing to right bringing up!' That is what you will say. Thomas and you wouldn't take any money for those two thousand verses no. Indeed, you wouldn't. And - now you wouldn't mind telling me and this lady some of the things you've learned no, I know you wouldn't for we are proud of little boys that learn. Now, no doubt you know the names of all the twelve disciples. Won't you tell us the name of the first two that were appointed?" . Tom was tugging at a button-hole and looking sheepish. lie blushed now, and his eye fell. Mr. Walters' heart Bank within him. He said to himself, it is not possible that the boy can . answer the simplest question, why did the judge ask him? Yet he felt oblifed to speak up and say: 'Answer the gentleman, Thomas, don't be afraid." '. Tom still hung fire. VNow I know you'll tell me," said the lady. "The names of the first two disciples were" "David and Coliah!" Let us draw the curtain of charity over the rest of the aeene. The Arizona legislature' has granted the Southern Pacific railroad company exemp tion from taxation upon its property within

WAITING. Serene I fold my hands and wait, Nor care for wind, cr tide, or pea; I rave no more 'gainst time or fate, t or lol my own, shall come to me. I stay my haste, I make delays, For what avails this eager pace? I stand amid the eternal ways. And what is mine shall know my face. Asleep, awake, by night or day, The friends I seek are seeking me; So wind can drive my bark astray, Nor change the tide of destiny. What matter if I stand alone? I wait with Joy the coming years, My heart shall reap where it has sown, And garner up lis fruit of tears. The waters know their own and draw The biook that springs in yonder height; So flows the good with equal law Unto the soul of pure delight. The stars come nightly to the sky; The tidal wave unto the sea; Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high, Can keep my own awav from me. John Burroughs.

THE WILDS OF FLORIDA. A Newspaper Party Penetrates There to Find Out About Some Smoke. Where They Find Immense Saurian, Unknown Inland and Ancient Idols. The exploring expedition sent out by the New York Heralto penetrate the wilds of Florida and ascertain the cause of a mysterious column of smoke long famous, is making progress. The correspondent is sending some entertaining letters to the Herald from which the following extracts are made: Noon found us at the terminus of the "line" which we were eager to extend. But the reader must not suppose that it was as easy going there as it is to walk down Broadway on even the sloppiest day of the thawing season. I found that the "judge" had penetrated into a far worse region than that preTisously explored. The tall, thick growth of cypresses cast a gloom upon the dark waters which languidly licked their feet a gloom so he vy, so contagious, that it seemed to fill the very soul of the adventurous explorer and to warn him in an inexplicable .wsy worthy to be studied by the psychologists to desist from the ruthless curiosity which would lead him still further into this sombre wild. It seemed veritably a desert, for of the massive vegetation there was nothing apparently which could render subsistence to living being. A chill pervaded the atmosphere which crept into our marrow, and the slothful breeze reminded one of the cold, sepulchral air which is said to accompany ghosts when they walk on earth. Certain it seemed that none of tne higher species of vertebrates haunted this strange solitude; not even a warbler was there present to lighten the ponderous silence with its cheery chirpings; but on looking down into the tawny water in which our feet and legs were submerged we were startled and horrified by apparitions at which our depressed and timid imaginations pave the most loathsome and dreadful aspects. A greenish, slippery vegetable substance, half slime and half moss, carpeted the bottom of the lagoon, and against it were revealed the crawling shapes of huge moccisins, called because of their deadly animosity to man "water rattles." They, however, have no rattles and give no warning of their proximity. They pass through' the water with a rapid rush when they are angered, coming down upon their prey like the fabled sea serpent which adorns sailors' yarns. As we stood, doubtful what to do, these noxious things never ceased to glide, and their scaly folds seemed to thicken around us. Evidently we had entered a very den of the evil one, perhaps the corridor of hell, pillared by the ghastly emblems of death the misty cypresses. Luckily there were several little mounds banked up about the bases of large trees close to us, and on these we sprang, snd, hastily jumping from one to the other, fled from the reptiles. It wai some time before we ventured again into the water, and not before we reached a broad and rapid current. We made our war to It as best we could by jumping from, mound to mound, or fram one fallen tree to another. To cross the main channel of the stream, however, it was necessary to again go into the water. We waded in cautiously, and the 'judge," who was in the van, insured our safety by feeling his ground as he advanced with his faithful "Jacob's staff." In the middle the water was nearly as high as our chins and the current swept against us with alarming strength, It was while nearing the more shallow margin that we espied a huge water reptile, a moccasin, ploughing along the surface of the water with great rapidity toward our little party. Jake declared him to be the largest of the species that be had ever seen. The "judge." who was nearest the danger, struck at him with desperate vigor with his only weapon, the "Jacob's staff." The blow fell short, and the monster never paused in his course, but rolled the ripples about him the more angrily. One of the men then lashed the water with a sapling, which he bore in bis hand, but trepidation had so unmaned him that he could not reach the enemy. The snake then stopped and lay on the surface looking at us, with his forked tongue darting menacingly. We could now observe him. His size was almost stupendous, and at a short distance he might nave been mistaken for a young alligator. I levelled my gun and sent some tine shot through his brain. He turned half over and wriggled and twisted himself into all sor.s of knotty shapes. He bad not disappeared when we reached the cypresses, having passed very near him. With a forked poll a noose waa slipped over his bead and he was digged into shallow water, where the remaining vitality in him was speedily dispatched. He was as large around as a woman's arm and his form showed its immense muscular development, a quality which makes this species so terrible, since they swim so rapidly and strike with the swiftness of a thunderbolt INTER ESTING ANTIQCITIKfl. We had reached an island. The interior was thickly shaded by gint live oak and magnolias, which so shutout the rays of the sun that tae atmosphere was laden with a dampness like that of some ancient crypt.. But it was small and soon explored. Beyond it was another island, and not so circumscribed in its limits and apparently mainly covered by pines, although there were scattered over it groups of live oaksnd magnolias. We crossed a deep "run" to reach it, and found its soil so much like that of the other that I at once concluded that the first growth of timber, which was probably five oaks and magnolias, had been ones hewn down by the hand of man. It is well known that in Florida a strange phenomenon occura in forestry when the primeval growth of timber is destroyed. Should it be pine, the new forest whicn will spring up will consist of the hard woods, such as oak, bay. magnolia and gum tree, and it is supposed that the pine will succeed these after they have been cut off. Comparing the age of the pines which we found on the third island with that of the live oaks. I should conclude that the latter are perhaps by two centuries the elder. Tbo puit ara

but weed when contrasted in their rank overgrowth with the august dignity of years belonging to the original lords of the soil. -The third island seemed several times as large as the other two. and we hastened to Eush our explorations to its utmost limit, ut we were arrested for the night by a wonderful discovery, a brief outhne of which I have alreany telegraphed you. In a spot quite secluded by the surrounding growth of bramble, shrub and vine, and where a few gigantic oaks cast deep shadows, we were startled to behold a figure bearing a semblance to the human form. The wild fancies of some of the negroes had suggested more than once the existence of some old and enfeebled slave fugitives in some nook of this region, but they were of course treated as improbable. We were utterly unprepared for the shout which one of them raised. "Look a'hyere! Hyere's a man, sho' 'nough!" "Looks like it's the berry debbil hisself," said another, shrinking back, while all of our dusky assistants bowed tokens of awe, if not of fear. I apEroached the grim presence. The resemlance to a human figure was far less apparent upon a near inspection than when viewed at a distance, but still there was altogether quite a verisimilitude. It is a great stone column, rotund in form. The upper portion has been at some time fashioned into the shape of the human head, poised upon broad and rudely carved shoulders. There are but faint traces of the eyes, ears, nose and mouth. The substance composing the idol is quite soft, a fine gray sandstone, and those features might have been nearly washed away by the rain within a hundred years or so. The figure has no arms. It is set vertically in the earth, and has probably sunk many feet deeper than it stood when originally erected. Its present height above the ground is about five feet, and by excavation it was found that it extends about four feet beneath. The original altitude of the image was, therefore, in all probability about eight feet. On the front, or what appeared to be the front, o! . the figure we discovered some singular characters, resembling scratches rather than graven characters. Part of them were hidden by the soil and moss, and this was removed so as to disclose the whole. The- hieroglyphs, if such they are, bear no analogy to any of those familiar to the writer; but they were so dimly traceable that this opinion may be a mistaken one, in consequence of the unfavorable light which pervaded the secluded precinct . A short distance from the - statue we stumbled upon another column or obelisk. It lay prone upon the ground, and had no head shaped upper portion. If it had ever possessed one it had been broken off and probably destroyed, for we saw near a heap of fine debris. This may have been partly produced when the idol was shaped, or afterWard, when its companion was demolished. A Nnnb for the Koiith. Washington Dispatch. A black eye for the south came next. The burly Teuton, (Schleicher, of Texas, wanted the rules suspended to pass a resolution declaring it to be the sense of congress that Wade Hampton and Governor Nicholls represented respectively the legal heads of the governments in South Carolina and Louisi ana. Here was the fitting opportunity for the republicans to extend the olive branch of peace; here the opportunity to indorse the peace-offering ot Governor Hayes, put forth by Charley Foster. But it was disregarded. Both parties stood solid, and the whip was cracked. One hundred and fifty-six democrats said "yea," and ninety-three republicans "nay." It was not enough. Two-thirds had not come to the scratch, and the resolution was lost Then Watterson, with his coy, kittenish way, again invited the other side to the love-feast He had read a telegram reciting that King (ant himself had partially acknowledged Nicholls. He asked the other side to indorse the golden sentiment. It was defeated again. One hundred and twenty-seven democrats were ready to submit to even the utterances of the retiring magistrate, but 85 republicans were not. Just how the south will stand this snub remains to be seen. One thing is certain: if reconciliation is to come it is reserved for Hayes to administer it in allopathic doses. From the White House to a Bank. - , Wasulngton Dispatch. A plan is on foot for providing a place for President Grant which promises to secure him a dignified position and to keep him still, in one sense, in the service of the country. It has long been desired, when the rest of the national debt came to be refunded, that the syndicate assuming the work should re under American control. It is now proposed that some strot g New York bank, say either the Bank of America or the Bank of Commerce, be recognized as a national bank, with a capital of $10,000,000 to $20,000,000, for the purpose of conducting the further operations for refunding the national debt with representatives in the board of directors from all the members of the present syndicate and also from the houses of Brown Brothers, the Barings, and Von Hoffman. The plan proceeds upon the idea that General Grant could be chosen and could be induced to accept the presidency of this bank. This would give him an assured income, with an occupation sufficiently digdified and agreeable, while it would gratify bia family feelings by fixing his future residence near that ot his sons. Ulysses Grant Jr., has been in New York for a day or two consulting with bank officers cm the subject, and there is a strong disposition among some of the moneyed men with whom the matter originated to carry it through. Who Dtajnad Beoalo Was. The Watertown (N. Y.) Daily Times of last Saturday says that it is now settled almost beyond a doubt that .Bessie Moore was "none other than Annie Stone, who resided here some years with her parents. Her father was a shoemaker, and. came to this city from Burrvjlle, four miles distant. The family lived for a number of years on Factory street Annie was a verv handsome girl and ver smart; her associates were jealous of her charms; she was poor, hence her fall. Before she left here she became fast and was once or twioe locked up for the purpose, of improving her morals, but ' ' her' confinement availed ' nothing. 1 Her- beauty ; caused her to have many admirers, and her amiable disposition, lady-like appearance and fine conversational qualities made ber a person with whom many men liked to associate. She left Watertown a short time before- her parents did, about eight years since, and went to Syracuse, thence to Rochester and then to the western cities. 8he has been an inmate of the most fashionable bouses in Chicago and Cincinnati, but never returned to Watertown. The people here, many of them, have forgotten her, yet there are those who remember her distinctly, but they are unable to give a history of her, further than stated above."

At Fort Wayne, while "Forbidden Fruit" was being played by the Jane Coombs' company two of the acre res became involved in a quarrel behind the scenes, and fought like tigers for ten minutes, neither apeaking a word or making a sound, that the performers might not be interrupted.
