.y Fun On The V/|ba«hllH840.

From the Cincinnati Commercial. The town of Grayville, on the Wabteh River, was laid out about the year 1887. by Mr. James Gray, who owned large bodies of land in the vicinity of the preitent town, well as the town plat itself. Mr. Gray erected for himself a large twostory frame dwelling, with accommodations for his family alxve, and store-: room and port-office on tbe first floTT. Soon, by repeated solicitaiioas and representations of Mr. Qray. the Government established aPostoflkc at Grayville, III., with James Gray a*first Postmaster. The mails arrived and departed once a week, oo horseback, over the mud road ?ia Vincenncs and Louisville. As usual in those days, maps of the new town were printed and freely distributed over the country and in the large cities, showing the advantages of the surrounding country, and osDecially the prospective City of Grayville, for profitable investment.

We were induced by liberal offers and repeated solicitations of Mr. Gray, to locate there. After a visit we se'ected a corner lot on the map near the center of the contemplated commercial metropolis, overlooking the great navigable highway —the booming Wabash—and in full view of' the spacious harbor below destined at no remou day, thought Mr. Gray, to l»c* filled or crowded with steamers laden with the rich products of this great valley. Such were the lull convictions of the flrtt Postmaster of Grayville..

On our corner lot we erected a frame store-house, and visited Louisville and Pittburg to lay in our stock, avoidingif possible such goods as would come in competition with. Mr The little town grew slowlv and trade was dull, but in time we had most 01 the elements of a city population—pottt-ollice, drj' goods store, grocery, cooper shop, blacksmith shop, saw-mill carpenter shop, saloon, bowling alley, tavern and finally a church and school house combined Trade, however did not seem to Nourish, and the bus-, less piirt of thy population became lvstless, with indications of evacuation bv the earliest settlers. The cooper had the privilege ol cutting all the timber he wanted off Mr. Gray's land free of charge. Still his business did not flourish, be got little or no work to do, his business was mostly mending buckets and tubs, he had seriously contemplated leaving, but had not determined, till one d*y an old woman brought him a bung hole and wanted him to make her a barrel lor it. lie uttered a few impious jeculations and threw down his adz and left the place. Our village doctor, Knight, was a young man, a graduate of the Louisville Medical Colloge, "full of odd saws," especially for broken limbs, but his practice was principally confined 10 one disease, the prevailing malady to this dav, fever and ague. Fie congratulated himself that he had never lost a patient on the Wasbash, though his practice had been extensive. Touse his own language, he had located in a community of shakers, and had become one himself, lie left aftvr uxhuasting his stock of q'ii nine, as well as baif of the community ol shakers, with the privilege epidemic, without cash enough to pay his lioard bill.

The tavern-keeper next subsided, being reduced in circumstances by the non-payment of board bills. One by one the early settlers abandoned the town, so that the proprietor of the village monopolized all the business. As for the man with the cornel lot, he saw disaster in the near future, and traded oft his slock of goods and effects for a flatboal, which he loaded with corn, pork, hooppoles and staves, coon and deer skins, Ac., and let go lor Shawnectown, where he disposed of the entire cargo. But we must return to Grayville, and give an account ot the sport we bad during the fall and winter of 1850. The whol« country was in a blaze of political excitement. The great cry was, "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." We formed a club of about fifty members, and kept the Wabash alive during the campaign, visiting Mount Carmel, Albion, Vincenms. Carmi and New Harmony iu our marches. We had a large wooden ball made, some ten feet in diameter, which we rolled along the road also a small log cabin mounted on wheels, with a barrel of bard cider on tap, coon skin tackcd on the side of the cabin, and a latchstring hanging on the outside ol the door.

Besides politics we had our hunting ami fishing club. The country around Grayville was alive with all kinds of game. Deer, turkeys, geese, ducks quail, grouse, woodcock and snipe, as well as squrirels and rabbits in great abundance. At leest one day in each week was spent in hunting and fishing curing the season.

As hunting in the usual way with dog and gun became stale sport, we adopted more exciting and novel modes# of capture Opposite to the town the Wabash makes a sharp curve, leaving along neck or Doint of land projecting out to the main channel-.

In wiuter when the river was frozen

over,

the deer could be seen coming out ot the thick woods in search of water. Wc cut a hole in the ice some fifty yards from shore, and late in the afternoon, when the game was expected, would secrete ourselves in the brush, a-rned with elubtt only. So soon as a deer would get out on the ice we would rush out ar.d cut ctf his retreat Then the fun would commence Yelling at the top of our voices and closing in for the tussle suie to follow, the first jump fiat on the ice, men and deer all in one pile, lough and tumble, presenting one of,the most laughable scenes imaginable, It is about as easy to catch a greased pig and hold him .as a deer on ice. Some times we would capture one, but usually returned .with torn clothe.*, broken shins and cracked heads.

The Benpas Creek fempties iuto the -AVabash near the town, and is a great feeding place for wild ducks, coming in late in the evening and laving next morning. We arranged to catch them with IIOOK and line by stretching across I he stream strong Irot lines With siioodeu hooks attached at sbort intervals near the surface of the water. These we could bait with dead minnows or crawfish. We seldom failed to find next morning a dozen or more tine ducks fast on the hooks.

Snapping turtles we caught in abunidauce by driving down a stake in the stteam, and attaching to it short string lines with cat hookssneoded on with fine •wire so that the turtles could not cut them oft", and bait with small bits of raw btef. This mode of capture we pit-lcr to catching them with small steel rat satraps, which is more amusing, however.

About our last hunt on the Wabash was

"if"

for wild jrkeys, and it ne agar our last hunt forever. YoungTfuller,

being of

Grayviile, and myself went bvef in the bottom to bunt turkeys. We flushed and scattered but the •, brash was' so thick we eould not pur sue them. Meantime,'we had get separated, and the only way to get a shot was to hide and call tbem to us. I had concealed myself in a fallen tree-top, and was calling with my caller, wljyj^ old gubler wM answer ng and approaching nearer and nearer. Just at the raomenl when I expected to get a shot, a slight rustling of brush and crack of a sdej^was heard ^chiWft m£. Turning my Head saw tbe muzzle ot a double-barreled gun from behind a tree pointing directly at my bead. I jumped from the tree top with a yell, to see Fuller drop bis gun and sink to the ground with fright. A moment more and mv head would have roceived the charge.

Here ended the day's hunt, and my lasj. on the wabash. E S. B.

Mitty

a&d

Tk be sure, pedpltf* said it was a shame' that Mr. Fontaine's d«%htert should |^oop so low in life as to deal out their hdspit&iity for money. But Mitty said—and Mitty has a great deal of common sense—thSFWtftfrhst lite, and all the genteel company that came to iHs^t n| wouldn't put so much as a penny in our pockets-towards cos) and taxes. «||||*«®*W|1

Mrs. Hall, who lived next door to ys, said she knew we wouldn't make it pay. No one but au experienced, housekeeper could make it pay. Miss Cynthia Caldwell thought it would have been much nicer and morfe select to do fine sewing, or get a place as governess, or something of that sort, which wouldn't have been so public.

Old Fearnleaf said his daughters shouldn't visit us. and Dr. Millet looked the other way when he brought his fashionable new bride to town and met Mitty face to face in the street. "Dear me," said Mitty, laughing, what a queer world this is!"

But I was angry enough to cry. "No matter, Mitty," I said we'll teach them that we can be quite independent without them."

Well, as time went on, we had several boarders. Old Mr. Pettigrew and his niece Clarrissa, who gave lessons in wax flowers and water-color paintings. Our rooms were full, all except the little one wer the wing.

Kate," said Mitty, triumphantly, wc are making money. I put eleven pounds in the savings bank to-day, over and above all expenses for the past .r it -A j* month.' 'i. oi'

I darfe say Mrs. Mali saves more than fchat." "h I thinlc very likely," said Mit!y.

Only, you see, Mrs. Hall does every ithing on a grander scale than we can pretend to keep up with."

We do our own marketing, wash and iron our own table linen, and sift ashes on the sly, while Miss Henrietta Hall is practicing The Maideh's Prftyer,' on the piano."

But then," I observed," we'renot.such fine ladies as Mre. Hall and Miss Henrietta. We are only two poor little ^ld maids, who are obliged to earn their own ifing."' I

Kate you are not an old maid," in« dignantly cried out Mitty. And you are fresh as a rosebud beside Henrietta Ilall," I said, patting her cheek. Do you know, dear, I think hard work agrees with both of us.

So things went on, till one summpr evening we were out on our steps, whtsn there was quite a commotion in the carpeted hall of ouv neighbor Mrs. Hall.

Of course lie must go," Mrs. Hall's voice shrilly announced. It was a great imposition on me that he should ever come here. I supposed he was an author or a lawyer, or some genteel occupation, and now you see he is nothing but a painter. A common painter."

An artist, ma'am, suggested Mr. Birdseye. And where's the difference, I should like to know?" sputtered Mrs. Hall.

Except thai one has at least daily wages to depend upon and the other hasn't. And now here he is down with scarlet fever or small-pox, or some such hideous ailment, and—"

Only a malignant form of intermittent fever, ma'am," again meekly put in Mr. Birdseye.

No matter what name they call it by." said the lady, waxing hotter and hotter in the ardor of discussion. I don't keep a hospital here, and if I did I wouldn't harbor any such low trash. So the sooner he packs off, the better I shall be pleased."

But where is he to go?" asked young Diederman. He has no friends that anybody knows of, and—"

All the more reason I should get him off my hands as quick as possible," said Mrs. Hall. "The idea of me becoming responsible for his funeral expenses.

"Hush, Waller will hear you," interrupted Mr. Birdseye. '«Hi« window is QDen."-

We had traveled all day,"and* towards night, on a glorious October day, we drove into a gate of a spacious old place where were octagonal towers and ivy mantled walls.

Oh, what a fine old place!" said Mitty. Ah, look at that lovely, glittering fountain and the beds of scarlet geranium. Bernard are you going to sketch this place?"

I may, in time," said my sister's husband, composedly, as he sprang out and opened the carriage door.

Are you going to get out here, Bernard? Do you know the people?" But before he could answer, the "great carved oak doors flew open, revealing a stately entrance hall with a fire burning at the farthest end and moss-colored carpet on the floor. Wax lights glowed softly, pictures gleamed down from the walls, chairs upholstered in violet velvet Btood around. To Mitty and me it was a glimpse of fairy land.

Who lives here, Bernard?" still persisted Mitty, as she advanced .timidly up tho broad marble steps.

I do. Wclcome home, sweet wife welcome nome, sister." 1 stared blankly at his bright faoa

But Bernard, we thought you was poor." Did I ever say I was? When I came to B— to sketch, I certainly saw no occasion to proclaim my private affairs to the good people there.

How the Government Pays Bills. [Good Company.] A great part of the work in the department is necessarily in the line of keeping accounts, and presents little interest to people who are nq&,exceptionally fond of figuring.

The general principle which governs the whole system of auditing and settling accounts against the Government is to provide every safeguard against fraud, and this is so. successfully accomplished that a dollar could not be got out of the treasury illegitimately without the collusion of so many persons that it may be set down as a practical impossibility.

Suppose a man has a bill against the Government. The head of the department or bureau to which the matter properly belongs makes a requisition for the amount upon the secretary of the treasury, using a prepared blank which asks him to cause a warrant for the amount in question to be issued in favor of the party, the same to be charged to the particular appropriation by Congress out of which the sum ought to come.

Bnt before this requisition reaches the secretary it must pass under the eye of the proper auditor and comptroller and receive their countersign* the auditor at 'the same time charging the amount to the account of the disbursing officer in whose favor it is issued. If all goes well so far, the secretary issues a warrant to the treasurer, directing him to pay over the money, which he does by issuing a draft for the amount in favor of the Government's creditor, but not until after the warrant has been countersigned by the proper comptroller and registered by the register. Indeed, the draft itself must go to the register for camparison and registry before

Mitty's blue eyes and pretty cheeks. You'll never allow your sister to marry a painter!" said Mre.=Hall, spitefully. .'-V* •. ^."4

I am sure I have no obiection to her becoming an artist's wife, as long as Uiey love each other," I said, laughing.

Well, really," said Mrs. Hall, if it \i sre my Henrietta—" But it isn't your Henrietta," I interrupted, a little sharply it is our Mitty, and she has chosen to suit herself and I for one, am entirely satisfied."

I resolved that I would wait

and give you a surprise. I was only on amateur artist. I am rich but I am Bernard Waller still."

Now wasn't that a romance? And, you see it really happened to Mitty and myself, and we are fine ladies now, and drive about in our open barouche behind cream colored horses. And you can guess how discomfited Mrs. Hall and Henrietta were when they first heard of the real position of the sick artist. .n

The hall was so quiet that the sound of Elder Toots rubbing his back on the sharp edge of a window casing gave everybody a start. "Not a man in dis huli city, so far as we know, eber put bisself out to do a favor for or speak a kind word in praise of our lamented brudder, an' yet we have de cheek to talk of a resolution settin' forth his many virtues, an' our heartfelt sorrow.

The Best Remedy for Chapped Hands

Is Hegcman's Camphor Ice It should rubbed upon the part effected. Th warmth of the skin will soften it sufflc iently, under ordinary circumstances, bu in extreme cold weather, it may be nec essary to warm it by the fire. If th hands are badly chapped, apply every night, and protect the hands by wearing an old pair of kid gloves. Hegeman's is the best and most popular of ail the Camphor Ice made. Hegeman's Camphor ice is also a cure for sore lips chapped face, and sunburn. It is compounded with glycerine, which renders it more emollient tnan any other Camphor Ice and it will be found a most soothing application to tbe face after ehaving.

Be sure to ask for Hegeman's (formerly made by Hegeman & Co New York,and made by the Metropolitan Med. Co. of New Ilaven Conn.) and do not be put off with any other compound, which may become rancid and do you more harm than good. Hegeman's Camphor Ice never fails.
