MOONSHINERS-^

your service, turned all at ouoe into a revenue oflleer, and ordesed lo hunt down whiskey distillers in Virginia, instead uf. Indians i« Idaho. Never was there soeh iiffernal' bad ldek.* I come East to Wasaington, aud as soon as they lay eyes on me I am ordered here ou this cursed affair, when I have my own private matters to attend to, I assure yon."
He took a letter from bia pocket and road it, oblivious of lbs man wtt| the leather box. It was in the handwriting of a woman, and the contents teemed flattering. Lieutenant Norcross smiled. "JackIs somewhere hnre in this outlandish country," he muttered, as he folded up the letter and replaced it in breast. He then rose and saijj, with a yawn, to a cavalryman who wast standing near, "Order the butfle to souud to horse. I will march in half an hour."
The man saluted with two iingerf to his cap, and Lieutenaut Norcroas lounged into the taveru, from which he soon alter emerged wltjj his sabre and pistols. At the sound of the tugle the men bad fallen into line, and the parly now moved, with the lieutenant and the revenue officer riding in front. A perBonage in a scarecrow suit of clothes, who bad been lounging about talking with the troopers, had meanwhile mounted bis b'in»e, which was tied near, and slowly ridduu out of the village This was the innocent looking Mr. Tony Tummies. In goinu toward his horse he bad reached his arm inside of a neighbor's door, and possessed himself of his gun. He now rode away slowly in a direction opposite to the mountain, but as soon as be was out of sight seemed to change his mind. He wheeled his horse, and dii^ging bis beeis into the animal, went at full gallop toward Neal's, where be gave the alarm, as has been seen.
Night bad now fallen, but the moon was shining, and it was easy to follow the road which wound before the troopers, white in the flood of light. The young lieutenant wtfiled away the tedium of the moment with a fresh cigar, and attain communicated to his companion bis views upon the subject of selecting army offioers for police duty. "Curse the whole cursed business!" he said. "There are enough staj'-at-homes around Washington to seud— why do they send me? What the devil do care whether they make whiskey or not? If it's good, the more the better. Why canTt you gentlemen in citizens' dress do your own fighting with these rebel moonshiners?" "No, I thank you, lieutenant," the collector replied, with a laugh. "Ever man to his trade." "Humph !—well, here are two roads. Which leads to this man Neal's, who is leader of your moonshiners, you say?" "The road to the left. I have information that will guide us afterward but these people are as cunning as Satan. If they are pushed hard tbey will figbt, too." "And you are going lo get out of the way—eh 1" "Exactly, lieutenant." •'Well, that's right L^ave the fighting to the military, and take to your tree. I mean to make short work of them if they fire a shot." "Well, yonder is Neal's— v. here you see the light."
The road wound down to the crossing where John Norcross had met Conny for the first time. On the slope of the gorge beyond twinkled a light and splashing'througb the river, the troop steadily advanced toward it. In fifteen minute Lieutenant Norcross baited bis men at the low fence, and moving his pistol holster around to have handle of the weapon convenient, he dismounted and walked up the house.
The knock at the tor brought out Conny. The lieutenant bowed and said, "This is Mr. Neal's?" "Yes, sir," said Conny. "I wish to see him." "He is not at home, sir."
Their eyes met, and the lieutenant smiled—his glauce was full of admiration ol the fresh face lit up by the tailow candle. "Well, present my compliments to Mr. Neal when ho returns and say that Lieutenant Harry Norcross called to pay his respects." "Lieutenant Norcross!" murmured Conny Neal, feeling achill pass through her. The young cfflctr bad bowed, and was going hack to his horse, so he did not hear this exclamation. He mounted and said to the revenue collector "Weil, which way now Noal is 'not at home,' hut has left a devilish pretty representative. I'm ready." "This way," replied the collector. And he rode on, followed by the troopers, two abreast, by a bridle path winding beneath heavy foliage in the depths of the gorge. No sooner bad they disappeared than Conny Neal ran to the small stable in the rear of the house and bridled the old animal which she had ridden to the mill when Norcross first met her. His slow, unwilling gait as she dragged hi in toward the house was a terrible trial to her patience. With venerable head extended horizontally and pulling against the bridle, he protested at every step but at last they were atthesmal) back porch, and Conny threw on him her riding saddle, and hastily buckled the girth. Then, without waiting to get her hat, she leaped into the saddle, broke a bough from the tree above her head, and striking the horse violently with it. set off at full speed by another path skirting the opposite side of the gorge.
The moon was soaring by this time above tho top of the mountain, and seemed to peer down at her. Her long hair fell upon her shoulders, and her face was quite pale. Her eyes glowed, and at times a short of shiver passed through ber figure, swaying with the movement of ber horse. She was going at a headlong gallop over the mountain path, leaping every obstacle—through the blackest masses of foliage, where she oould not see a yard In front of her, as through the open spaces where ber figure was lit by the weird moonlight. More than onoe her horse stumbled, but she lifted him with the rein and urged him on. If she could only arrive in time—only that—and tell 'Aim tbat his brother was coming for she had divined tbat this was his brother.
Suddenly she beard shots in the gorge. Just as the moon rose Neal and Nor» cross had gone on foot Into the mountain. Nothing which the former could say would turn the younger man from purpose. He only laughed and said "As there is going to be a fight, perhaps. I should like to see it. I have never heard the vyhistle of bullets, as I was too young to oome and fight yon in the war, and here is my ohance." "Do not go you will expose yourself.

Neal oould do nothing with him, and hastened to arm himself and repair to the place of rendezvous. Noroross followed, without even regarding the entreaties of Conny Neal. He was determined, he said, with another Uugh, to see a night skirmish, if theie was a skirmish and leaving the poor girl a prey to anliet# And aiigntail th*"? ten*n uptjift jjatb afterward loll the p.*rty of troopers.
At these words the men disper&ed, entering the heavy foliage at different points, in which they disappeared. Neal, followed by Norcross, turned to the left, went up a steep acclivity, and tbey emerged on a sort of pinpacle of rock, from which they looked down upon the main gorge. Across a cleft ou their right, one of the men was seen watching. From tbe road below came the hoof strokes of the troopers as they steadily advanced.
Suddenly the foremost figures of the partj' emerged into tbe moonlight beneath and came to a halt. Lieutenant Norcross, who was in front, bad looked up and seen the man on the crag not lar from Neal. "Come down from there, you scoundrel!" be shouted, drawing a pistol and then firing at biin. It was a mere random shot, but it struck tbe man in tbe breast. He dropped his gun and fell forward, exclaiming "I'm doue for, captain!" to Neal. He attempted to clutch some bushes near him, but tbe ball bad done its work, and be fell dead in the road about fifty yards in Iront of the troopers. "You see!" said Neal, with a flash of the eye, "this is war, you understand, neither more nor less. Well!"
He drew a bunting whistle from his pocket aud blew upon it. As the sound rang through the gorge it was echoed from every crag by soots at the troopers. Tbey scattered at once, but soon re appeared on foot, advancing as skirmisher?, and firing their carbine? at every spot where the leaves moved, or a puff of smoke rose. This fire was evidently accurate and deadly the bright moonlight enabled tbem to take good aim. Groans were heard from point to point, and the troopers mounted the slopes, firing steadily with their repeating carbines.
Neal had looked on without firing. As to Norcross, he seemed to be in a dream. Had he or had he recognized bis brother? The voice was his, but it was incredible that he could be here. It was a fancy—a nightmare. He was aroused by a second signal from Neal's whistle. "This is murderous," the elder said. "Their arms are better than ours. To the barricade!"
He drew Norcross by the arm, and leaped down tbe declivity on the right. In two minutes he bad reached a point where the smaller gorge debouched into the larger—a narrow mouth flanked by tall rocks. Here the men were assembling from moment to moment. Three were missing. Across the mouth of the small gorge a barricade bad been constructed of felled trees. Behind this the men posted themselves, and they had no sooner done so than the troopers, deployed as skirmishers, advanced to tbe attack.
John Norcross had followed Neal, and was standing behind tbe barricade near him. His ligl.t mood had quite disappeared, and he looked on and lis tened with tragic emotion. For the first1 time in his lile he witnessed the spectacle of men putting each other to death. Too young to take part, as be bad said, in the civil war, he had never for a moment realized the stern tragedy of the great grapple of the sections, or seen blood flow. He bad now seen it, and his emotion was sombre and profound. Blackest of all was tbe fancy that he had heard his brother's voice. "Attention!" Neal said to tbe men "they are coming."
As he uttered the words a voice exclaimed "Oh! no, no! Father! father! do not fire!'
Conny Neal, pasting the gorge beyond, liad dismounted, made her way along the slope, and now reached the smaller gor^e behind the barricade, plunging down tbe steep bank, and only keeping berself from falling by grasping the pliant boughs of tbe trees. She was at her father's side, and it was her voice which besought him not to fire. She burst into te*rs, and wrung her hands, exclaiming to Norcrow, "It is yonr brother!"
She had scarcely uttered the words when Lieutenant Norcross, in his gay uniform, was seen rushing forward at tbe bead of bis men, sabreln band. "Surrender, you infernal rebels!" he shouted.
Neal had mounted tbe barricade, and gave tbe order: "Fire!" "Fire!" came at tbe sane moment from the lips of Lieutenant Norcross.
A double volley rang through tbe gorge, and Neal, shot through the breast, fell forward on tbe outside of the barricade. At the same instant John Norcross, looking at his brother, saw him stagger. Without regarding the
rain or hufleta, he leaped over the barricade and ran toward him. It was too late. Lleuteuant Norcross advanced a few steins, and fell nearly at Neal's side, dead, with a ball through bis heart. "Ob, brother! brother!" John Nororosa cried, in his great agony.
Neal tnrned bis head slowly. Hia eyes were already glaxing. "Was he your brother?" be said, in a low voice. "It is a pity." As be said this, bis head fell, and he expired.
As to tbe troopers, they were swarming over the barricade, and tbe moousbiners were scattering through the mountains.
Since the events above recorded many changos have passed over the New River region, and a number of citizens, once prominent, have disappeared. Among these, tbe region mourns the

This path was apparently uaa^e by cattle seeking spots of pasture on the side of the mountain, and was welt defined. After following it tor ten minutes, however. Neal obliqued to the right and clambered up a rocky footway over whiob the boughs of the mountain ash almost interlaced. Then the path began to descend Into a smaller gorge, opening into the *nd a,voice «aid, "Haiti Ileal uav« tytie cOunfietalgn, aud contoured rbad vance. A few moments afterward he and bis com pinion wen.' in the inidst of about doaeu men armed with old muskets and fowling pieces. Behind them a low but leaned against an enormous mass of rock, be neath whiob it was evident there was a cavern. This but was seoured by a heavy door, and had no wiudows. It was the still. "Neal gave his orders in the brief words of a man accustomed to command and the ragged figuies around him, grasping their guns, listened as meu listen to their superior. "They are comiug," he said, "and I meau to fiht. But this is not the place the barricade is the spot—but only to fall back on. Scatter on the rocks above the wood, and look out. No man is to fire unless be is fired at. Then give it to them!"
