The fai't that such a depsrtrnent bit the bull'ieye la evidenced by the fact that we huve ailded twunty-one new subscriber! within a week, and they are atiil coming.

We have been, as some of our friends know, greatly hauiered In our editorial work during the pout year by an old fashioned re volver which could never be depended on In an emergency. It was out of repair all along the Una, and when we brought it down on a man we never felt sure which of us would get tbe content. It was aluo too large for our pistol pocket, aud on three or four occasion tbe other luun bad opened fire be fore we could get it out, , When ArkaiiMU liiiJ met us in front of Taylor's bank one day but summer and 0wned fire be bad pulled the trigger three times before we could get our old shooting iron on Hue with hi left lung. We didu't much expect to drop bim then, a the hammer was out of true, but when we pulled he tum bled, and be lived long enough to tell us that be made the mistake of hi life when be set out to remove the editorial head of Arizona's great woekly newspaKr. This uew weaKin add to our editorial inal and enterprise, and puts The Kicker on a more cortuin foundation. We have bad ouly one week's practice, and yet we can draw it and send two bullet ripping through a fel low being's carcass while an average school boy can get bis mouth puckered to begin tbe first line of Henry Clay's great iwech.

Wis were born with a spirit of fuir play in our coiiiusltioii which bos never grown law. We waul to sue everybody and everything have a fair show. For this reason, when half a doteu of our prominent citlseu came to us ono day lout week and suggested a necktie party to remove "Cow boy Jack," an ho culls himself, from his sphere on eurlh to ono a great deal higher up, wo suggested that he first be given a allow to Inflict hi presence on the people of Tomb stone or Tucson, lie hut) been with ua three weeks, turmri.iiig old men, women aud boys by hi wilil shooting and being too ready with bis pop wli.'ii a disputuuroso iu a saloon. The assert ion of our locurfd contemporary that we wanted to save him until he hud sub scribed for Tho Kicker I a declaration worthy of Hatau himself. It was suggested that wo call upon the gentleman numed within the quotation marks, and throw out a hint that bo inid better walk. We did so. He received us with chilling po liteness, listened to our words of wisdom, and then gave us thirteen seconds to got down three pairs of stair. As he bud the drop on us, we got; and as he didn't shoot, it is likely that we nuved a second or two. We warned him what the result would be, and the result baa resulted. On Tuesday night score or mere of us leading citisens made a call on Cowboy Jack, lie wa somewhat surprised, but would have done well enough bad be been given time. He was taken from tbe 0. K. saloon to Uuugman's true, given the usual time to undergo a change of heart, and then hauled up aud left to bis reflections. We spoke to him personally just before be was lifted, referring to our former conversation, and tt pleased us to hear him reply that we were dead right In our deductions, and that If be bad his lifo to live over again be would tulauribe fur Tbe Kicker and pay at least two years lu advance.

Old Gilbert shook his head. "Hit mought be a ketchin' complaint, chile." "I hate hard hearted people!" Missy declared, bringing her little (1st down on her kuee with violence. "And every body on this old hill has got hear to like mile stones 'ceptin me. You mean old nigger! I sha'n't give you any Christ mas glf." "You mus tak' patience, honey," coun seled old Gilbert. "Hit ain't mo'n three days sence Mawse Nicholas lef us: things gwan mend maybe." "And It might be a thousand years!" sighed Missy. "Chillen mus' obey," Gilbert reminded her. Missy was silent a long time; then she aid, at lust: "Daddy Gilbert, you've got religion, ain't you?' "Dross de LawdP ejaculated the old Juan, piously.

"Kneel down," she said Imperiously. Old Gilbert obeyed as though the com mand had come from another world, as he half believed it did.1 "Say after me," Missy dictated: "I promise and vow, In the help of the Lord, to keep track of Mawse Nloholas Thome to the end of my days. Anion. These words Missy recited with fervid solemnity, the old negro repeating after her, in an awe stricken voice; he thougnt the child must surely be Inspired, "Now," said she, in a matter of fact tone, when this ceremony was over, "I m goin' hack to the house and bring you some supper. I've got to take care of you, 'cause you've got to look after Brer Nicholas. Tbe old negro stood watching her as she went along the lane. "Dat chile ain't gwan live out half her days," he muttered, with a sorrowful shaking of his old head. When Missy returned presently with the promised supper, he declared that he could not eat. "Well, but you bettor," Missy Insisted. "You got to go up to town to-morrow. I know Aunt Elvira is goin' to send you." Dat caw fee do smell iow ful encour- agin', tubbe alio," he admitted, with a slow smile, and soon found his appetite. He had just ended his meal, when Miss Elvira stood In the cabin door, and the old man rose stiffly to make his awkward obeisance. Sit down, Gilbert, you must be tired," aid Miss Elvira, graciously. "Winifred, my dear, run on back to the house; It is too lute for you to be out." "What s the user said Missy, with an impatient shrug. "I know all about It Daddy Gilbei t had been to look for Brer Nicholas and Brer Nicholas ain't there." "Nicholas is at Mrs. Herry's," said Miss Elvira, wearily. "So Missy been tellln me. Hukkom you know, Missle-vireyr "Mrs. Herry was here today, she an swered, flushing. "You must go up to town to-morrow, Gilbert. You need not start so very eurly, and I'll see you again in the morning." But the next morning old Gilbert waa ailing, and for several days thereafter he waa unable to leave his bed. Tom Quash, who went "up to town" three times a week for the mail, reported to Glory-Ann that Mawse Nick was "mighty sick, then that he was a little tietter, and finally that he was pro nounced out of danger. A fortnight later Miss Elvira added another hundred to the sum she had already given old Gilbert, and dispatched him on an em bassy to her nephew. "I ss prised at Missle-virey, mused old Gilbert, as he jogged on his way, with Nicholas trunk in the ox cart "Hit alu't no mo' use 'n nolhin' 't all ter ten'dishyer money. Mawse Nick ain't gwan tek hit But I ain't gwan say nothin'; when Mawse Nick done refuse hit, I gwan put hit way; come o' use bom-bye," It came to pass as Gilbert had fore- teen; Wcholus would none of his aunts gift, and indeed the faithful old slave had tome difficulty In persuading him to receive the trunk. Miss Elvira, how ever, made no inquiry about the money; she had not expected thanks, nor any kind of acknowledgment, and she pre ferred to say nothing about It En hit aln t fur me ter go ter her 'dout I is axed," old Gilbert decided; and very early the next morning he buried Miss Elvira s gold where uis own savings were hidden, Some days later eame the news that Nicholas hud left Tallahassee, or rather, it was understood that Job Furnival had taken his daughter and his son-in-law away. It was old Gilbert who brought this news; he had learned it through the negroes belonging to the improvident and despised Furnivals down the road, whose society he now cultivated, as one of "keeping track of Mawse Chicago Uirl-Wby, 1 just got a letter from aiy brother in Iudia.

Such was Missy's present programme. She had found starving Impracticable, but she still maintained an unrelenting bitterness towards her father, never speaking to him except when Impossible to avoid it This, however, made little or no Im pression upon the coloneL Children had few attractions for bim at any time, and he was too much a prey to his own bit terness of heart to be conscious as yet of bis little daughter's estrangement Mrs. Leonard Tlwrne and her' pretty duughtcr, finding such a state of affairs too irksome to be borne, made all haste to their own home, as soon as two or three rooms could be put in habitable condition. - The colonel did not oppose this plan, lie did all that he could, iu fact, to ex pedite the work on tho house by way of making amends for Furnlval's summary dismissal; but after Flora waa gone his health seemed to fail suddenly, though he would not acknowledge that he was I1L Misa Elvira In alarm contrived to have the doctor pay him a visit, as if by chance, and the doctor urged a chango of scene. The colonel for a long time resisted, but at last he allowed himself to be per suaded to visit an old aunt of his who for many years had resided In New York. He set off alone one sad Septem ber dav. when the land lay aweary in the sunshine, and the cicada kept up a din, and the cotton fields were white for the harvest CII AFTER XV. PBOTKST OF TUZ FIDDLES. Hi broke away from herabruptly and ttood ioukxng om OJ me u uiuuw. ( It was the end of October when Col. Thorne returned. Misa Elvira welcomed bim with a gentle and dignified self re straint, born purtly of timidity and partly of her notion of perfect ladyhood, and the colonel expected nothing more from his undemonstrative sister; but there was perfunctoriiiossln Missy's greeting that made him at last aware of her estrange ment, and struck a chill to his heart. He had brought the child some extrava gant pieces of jewelry, but sheevlnfced no pleasure in his gifts, and her father noted, without comment, that she left them lying on the table. Tbe next morning he rode over to Ins sister-ln-law's place. He hoped to receive from Flora a welcome that should make amends for wliut he missed iu hiaown home, nor waa he disappointed. His pretty niece met him with an affectionate effusiveness that almost did away with the effect of his little daughter's coldness; but it did not escape his observation later that Aleck Gage was in the back ground, deporting himself with a confi dent air. Mrs. Leonard talked garrulously of various things; of the improvements she wished to make, of the Bale of her cotton, the investment of her surplus funds, the purchase of mules, even of her poultry; out never a word of Aleck Gage. The colonel deemed this reticence sig nificant, and he rode home vexed, lie had thought to order his smajl world ac cording to his own will and pleasure, and now he found it fast slipping from his grasp his son an alien, the niece whom he had hoped to make his daughter ready to marry one whom he had not chosen, and his own little daughter indifferent to him. i But when Flora came, two days luter, to say that she had promised to marry Aleck Quge in December, the colonel, perforce, resigned himself to her choice with dignified philosophy. 'I had allowed myself to expect a dif ferent marriage for you, Flora, as you know," he could not resist saying, nor could he say it without a sigh; but he did not say it harshly. It was the first expression he had ever given to his disappointed hopes, and Flora, eager to console him, exclaimed, with the indiscreet enthusiasm of youth: "Aleck hasn't a fault in the world. Uncle Jasper; he will be the best of sons to you, if you will only let him!' The colonel did not say that he had no desire to claim Aleck Gage for a son, He broke away from her abruptly and stood looking out of the window some little time, struggling for command of himself. He waa still pale when he re turned; but he spoke with a courtly dig nity gue-t, that the W delayed Monte don, and so made matters worse. The colonel is pining for a reconciliation with his son, though he won t own it. and Flora might do somethiag to bring it about As for me. 1'w only meddle-l to mar, so there's an end of my efforts. Mrs. Thorne was very angry wita Cousin Myrtilla for this speech. "I don't see how you can talk of a rec onciliation with Nicholas!" said she. I am surprised at you! As If we Thornes ever could consort with a Furnival! To which Mrs. IKrry made the exas perating retort tlmt Nick's wife was every bit as much aThorneas Mrs. Leon- ard herself.. " ' . For all this, however. Mrs. Herry was not omitted in the liat of invitations, either to the wedding or to the merry making at Thorne Hill; for the colouo had announced that every connection of the family, far and near, should be In vited to the entertainment he meant to give In honor of his nine's marriage. "And ain't Brer Nicholas and his wife klnfolks?' asked Missy, with bold signifi cance. She did not fear her father.and yet her poor little heart fluttered wildly when she put this daring question. The colonel's only answer was a dark, forbidding frown, and Missy betook her self to a corner. "Don't you fret 'bout dat, honey, whisiiered Mom Bee. "now don't you; fur de la gwan be de fiddlersen de dancin', en' plum cuke a-plenty." "Don't want none!" said Missy, who had given herself an indigestion by the surreptitious gormandizing of raisins and citron. En' besides all dat," proceeded Glory Ann to her overwhelming climax, "you gwan be dressed so spruce en' gayi 7 cousins, Miss Lotty eu' Miss Bess, in pink, en you in a hebeuly blue." . Poor little Missy, who was fond of dress, dried her tears and reconsidered her determination to abstain front tho wedding festivities for her absent broth er's sake. ,' But not even the companionship or Lottie and Bess, not even the dress of "hebeuly blue," nor the sound of tbe music, nor tho sight of the niary dunce, could shut out the memory of Nicholas. "Oh, Lottie, ain't them fiddles just dreadfulT she lamented. "They're al ways savin', 'Nicholas, Nicholas, whey's Brer Nicholas?' no matter what the chune they play." . "Why, Missy, what a funny child you are!" said Lottie, with a giggle; but presently Bess declared that the fiddles did say just whut Missy thought; and if the truth were confessed, they said very nearly the same thing to the colonel and Miss Elvira; the name that no guest dared mention rang in their ears, no matter what tune the fiddles played. ,l Truth. t ti.A Uu kans.

Tht colonel lifted hit hat A few days after these wedding festiv ities Miss Elvira sent old Gilbert to curry a basket of cake to some friends four ot five miles distant. Gilbert could easily have ridden a mule and carried the bas ket, but the ox cart enabled him to con vey a load of birch brooms and shuck mats, for which he hoped to find a mar ket bvthe way. The most of the day was consumed in this jaunt, and it was late In the wintry afternoon when he ionmpvpf! homeward. j - , As he turned the corner of the brier field, where the innumerable denuded stalks of many growths were making a mournful rustling in the evening wind, he was surprised to see a woman trudg' ing along in the narrow, sandy road that skirted the wood. She was going in the same direction as himself, and her back was towards him, but there was some thing in her tall, gaunt figure, clad in russet brown, and wrapped in a scanty bawl of red and green plaid, something in the determined manner of her gait, that had a strangely familiar look to old Gilbert's eyes. He urged the black ox to an unwilling trot, and presently over took this solitary wayfarer, who turned her head as she stepped aside, and old Gilbert recognized Roxanna W lute. ; "Whv. tubbe shol" he muttered to himself. "Whoa, Brandy!" ; , Gilbert had long ago decided that this woman was no common "po' bukra." She commanded Ills involuntary respect by the subtle magnetism of character, and moreover she had the advantage, in his eyes, of belonging, hi a way, to Mawse Nick; wherefore hefolt that it behooved him to do hie best manners.
