;. MY NARROW ESCAPE.

| I never told anybody how very, very |’ near I was to death that night, just a | year ago; -but as-I can now look and |-calmly recall each thought, each word, | eachi act, I think T will write it down | as ‘a warning to all 'who may flnd | themselves: similarly “circumstanced, [ hoping, with all my heart, that the ‘number may be few. - : : In the first place, my name is Frederick Putnam.: I am, and have been for the last ten years, the foremanand book-keeper of the large lumbering establishment of Williain Winsten & Co., and hope to be for another decade, ‘unless something better turn up. Mr. Winston is the resident. partner and . manager of the manufacturing part of the business. - The other members of the firm, of whieh there are two, live in the city, at.the foot of the lake, and attend to the sdles of lumber, which we send them by vessels. This is' by far the largest share of what the mills cut, although the amount of eur sales direectly from the | -mills, to supply the country to tiié" west of us, is quite large.. : , .Well, one cold December evening,. just as I was preparing for heme, I heard footsteps on the creaking snow outside, and presently the office door flew open, as though some oné in haste :had given it a push, admitting a tall, stout, well dressed man, wiwl a small traveling-bag in one hand and a shawl threwn over one arm. . . -

- I was’ alone, Mr. Winston having ‘gone to the house some half an hour before, locking the safe, in. which we kept our books and papers, and taking the key with him, as usual. - ' I had already elosed the damper to the stove, put on my oyercoat, and was ‘just in the act of turning down the larup—but of course I waited. “Good evening sir,” said the man, bustling up to the stove, and kicking the damper open: with his tight foot, —*“Has Mr. Winston gone -to the honse ?” Hies L e

. I answered that he had. S - “When? I wasafraid of 1%” - He drew out his watch—a very fine one, Fthought.- = =« e _ “Ishall not have time to go up,” he said. . “The train is due in fifteen minated” oo sl 57 . “Is there anything 1 can do?” I asked. . 1 L rdad add “I- wanted to leave some money with Winston. I intended to stop in town a day or two, but have just got a dispateh that calls me home.” = - “What name, sir?” 7 . it “Anderson, of Andersonyille.” I knew him then, thought I had seen him once before. Ie had been one of our best Western customers.— 1 say had been, tor- the reasonthat during ‘the past '\year his payments had not been so prompt. In fact, he was cohsiderably behind, and Winston had that very ‘day told me ‘to write hini, and “punch him up a little,” as he expressed it. The letter was then in the breast-pocket of my overcoat., - SHagis e

“You can leave the!money with me, sir, and 1 will give a receipt.” iy He seemed to hesitate, which nettled me somewhat. 1 have never blamed anybody since, however. - : “How much is my bill?” he asked, eyeing me sharply. ; . I answered promptly, for I had struck the balance not more than half an hour before: ' . o “Eleven thousand seven hundred and- fifty - dollars and twenty-three cents.” - B S

“Humph! less ‘than I supposed,— Write out a receipt for that amount.”

/. He left the stove, and came and looked - over .my shoulder: while I wrtote: . 7 Jult e R

“It is all right, Mr. Putnam, I know you now, - Y ou’ve been with Winston; a long time. -I.cantell yoursignature anywherell ' . fuls whebiiin by - He drew from an inside. pocket a large- bleck wallet,” very round and full, and counting out eleven different pileg of bank-notes, he told me to run them over..- 1t wasa shoit and easy task, for each pile contained just ten ome hundred dollar bills. -~ . - - Bhe balance was'in fives, tens and twenties, and it took more time to count them; but at last we got it so that’'both were satisfied. . = - . ' At this moment we heard the whistle .for the station. : Anderson sprang for his traveling-bag, and giving me-a hasty hand-shake, was.off-on: the run. i I closed the door and counted the mondy again. TFindmng it all right, I wrapped a piece of newspaper around it, and slipped it _into my overcoat pocket. Ve o ehlie %

1 did not feel quite easy to have so much money about me; but as Mr. Winston’s_liouse was at-least a mile distant, I concluded to-keep it until morning, when I could deposit it in the bank. SR e 3

- I-closed the damper again; drew on my gloves, took the office key from the nail just over. the door, and step- ' ped up to put out the lighk -As I'did 80, 1 saw a bit of .paper on the floor, which, on picking up, 1 ssw was the receipt I wrote for-Mr. Andergon.— He had dropped it in his hurry. Lput “it-in my pocket, and thought no more about it, en}y that I would mail it to him. I would have done it _then, but as the last mail for that day had gone out on the train which took Mr. Anderson, I could do it just as well in the morning.

There will be a great many men in the Northwest in favor of a full currency, and opposed to ahy contraction, but no such party will ever grow into a substantial living power: ‘This greenhback senfiment was an outgrowth of the hard times, and as fimes improve, as in all probability | they will, the popular mind will settle down upon the old idea of a sound metallic system of ‘monéy, with a convertible paper currency as its auxiliary.

The difference at ‘this time between coind ‘and’ paper is merely nominal; and | with silyver coin to aid 'in the redemption of such paper as may be present-

ed, there cannot be'any run upon the government—whilh ‘was the great danger— if specie resumption had to ‘be attained by gold currency alone.

It is valuable as a metal even if it were not stamped s a dollar by the government. ° The paper credit for a dollar is not a dollar, if the authority that issued it is. without credit, it is merely a piece of paper.

A Word to Fault-Finders.

Editors are frequently censured for that which they have no power to prevent. The Mishawaka Enterprise, in. speaking on this subject, says, truthfully: “It may not be generally known; but it is a fact nevertheless, that editors are only mortal, and like other mortals, only have one pair of eyes and the same number of ears; on an average. Itissometimesdifficult for them to be everywhere at the same time, and to see andhear everything that is going on in the place. Alse, as'a géneral thing they are not ‘mind readers.’ Yeb some people take 1t as a personal. insult, if the loeal paper fails to mention that ‘Jim Jones has got a ‘pile’; or ‘Peter Piper has built a new sidewalk;’ or ‘Mrs. Grundy has gone on a' visit,’ or‘just returned from Jimtown s or ‘that accomplished Miss Flora MeFlimsey,of Madison Square, is sojourning in:our midst for « few days” And set it down -as rank favoritism on ‘the part of the editor when a few such’items that chance to fail within his notice are admitted into his columns, to'the eéxclusion of others that ‘he knows nothing about. - Now “let it be understood, once for all; there is no favoritism about this thing. An editor is always glad as a general thing, to have ‘any such'personal items, as. ‘they help to fill up, and add to the local interests of the paper. But it is impossible, as we said before, for one person to see and hear everything, con‘sequently- he must depend upon; his. friends for particulars, names, dates, and other information of anything deemed worthy of notice. This weare constantly trying to impress upon ‘our Teaders, but so far with very poor success. - Tell us the news, friends, and it will be reeorded.” B O P

Cultivate The Orchard.

. A longexperience 1n fruil growing has satisfied me thatone prelific cause: of short crops from the orchards and the yield, ‘such as it’is, of an indiffer‘ent character; is the lack’'of attention or -cultivation among the trees. - An/ impression seems t¢ prevail that about: all an apple tree needs is setting out; when that is done it will take care of itself; so it will, but it will be only. a tree, not a fruit-tree. ~The act: of producing fruic, as with any other crop, draws essential elements.from. the soil, that must be -provided, else, in the nature of things, the yield must’ decrease and ‘the quality deteriorate. The soil should be cultivated by plapte ing some grain crop, that the soil may be stirred and its surface made more of ‘an absorbant. : It is a good practice now and then'a season to sOw. Feas, corn, oats or some crop that willfurn-. ish the desired elements, and plow it in when grown, buf the practice of seeding down an orehard is attended with peril to its greatest 'fr'uitf\ingss;«,_ I find that the most ‘thrifty orchard will manifest its appreciation of the neglect by shortening up the crop; and it would be best for all who have fruit trees to at once plow the ground if it is in grass and put on some manure, and they will find ‘my experiénce is true and will be proven in .theirsi = I also find it of gréat advantage to: keep a few hogs or sheep in the .orchard to-eat up the wormy-apples as they fall.
