AWIUJIN'S WHI5PKR3.
Tbere'a sigh In the me&dowt;
I bear Hat morn.
As the warm south wind rustles
The rich, yellow corn;
"Sweet hummer is oyer,
8ad autmn la near;
The daisy la dead
And the golden-rod's here."
There'! a iirge In the meadows;
1 bear It at at eve;
'Ila the crickets' weird treble
Ah, sorely they grieve I
Grim Winter m coming.
Gay bummer bjui fled; '
The birda' notes are husbf d
And the daisies lie dead."
There Is grief in the meaJow; ;
I see n each day;
The soft graa turns yellow;
The trees sadly say:
Ab, one by one, leaflets
You'll grow brown and sere;
One by one, too, you'll leave us,
and die with the yea: I"
I walk through the meadows
Amid the dry grass;
I bear these sad waitings,
My heart crief, "Ala !
My bo ts too are Seeing,
Life's summer baa fled;
Only golden-rod blooms,
For my dairies are dead." .
Bat there's joy in the meadows;
Look forth, bean, and set !
Hear a new nr. them ringing
From each fUtn-ci owned tree!
HurkE- biro, field and brooklet
All join in tbe strain,
While the cricket chirp gaily
Again aid again;
"dummer'a besnty may leave ns.
Bui still Autumn comes;
1 bf-ueh the daisy mutt die
Yet tbe golden-rod bloom !'
CAPTURING A STILL.
The other night, Major Griddlewood,
who long ago woo his spars as an effi
cient revenue officer, related the follow
ing story:
At one time we had a great deal of
trouble with illicit distillers in Arkan
saw. There was one neighborhood es
pecially where it seemed impossible to
discover the outlaws. This community
was away up on- White river. Officer
after officer had been sent up, and quite
a namber of them are there yet, although
the department did not receive notmca
tiou that they intended to leave the ser
vice. One day the news came in that
one of our best men had Just been killec
at gripping Borings, uy wiiicn name
the dangerous neighborhood was known
I was sent for by the marshal, who said
"Major, you have had considerable
success in hunting for distillers. Now
we want you , to find those fellows and
bring thorn to justice. A3 you know
none of our men have been able to find
them and "
"They've been found a trifle too of
ten," I suggested.
"That s a fact, the marshal agreed
"but not by the right man. Now I want
you to take as many soldiers as you want
go to the place and break up the busi
ness."
I reflected for a moment and replied
"I think that our mistake has been in
taking too many men. It is almost ini
possible for a party of men to find
-it i:n mi . i
wuu cat uisuuery. xueir approacu is
soon heralded and disaster is certain, to
follow. I will go alone and discover the
nest. Then I can return and capture
tue entire outat.
"Rather hazardous," the marshal said
thoughtfully scratching his head.
"Not so dangerous as the course hith
erto adopted."
"AH right; "use your own judgment.'
The next day I started on my perilous
expedition. I went horse back, and my
progress was very slow. When at last
reached the placa, I found a beautiful,
rich country,, with great hills and little
valleys luxuriantly carpeted with grass.
I could see no signs of lawlessness, but
on the other hand 1 was kindly treated.
I stopped at the house of a man named
Anderson, a well-to-do fellow, with some
education and a bright eyed daughter,
who seemed to De devoted to her father
T. a a i
a saw at once mat Anderson was an
honest man, and when I learned that he
bad been in the federal army I felt se
cure under his roof. Still I did not care
to tell him my real business, but in

answer to a question, siaieu mat l was
looking for land in a leisurely sort of
way, having iust been discharged from
- the regular army and especially desiring
a rest from that dangerous activ ty which
all army olncers incurred.
i 1 ITT 11 ' 1 .
, weu, sir, you are welcome at mv
Louse, and I hope you'll find your stay
pleasant. My daughter, who can row a
boat to perfection, will cheerfully con
tribute to your enjoyment."
1 "I understand, looking at him, "that
several government officers have been
killed by illicit distillers in this neigh
borhood." "Yes," he replied; "shamefully mur
dered. "Well, I won't say murdered, for
the distillers no doubt considered it self
defense.' Up m the hills, here, some
where, there is a large distillery, but it
will be a long time, I think, before the
.government breaks it up. It is almost
impossible to conduct a party of men
through the hills, and it is almost cer
tain death, for the distillers can see al
most every turn. My advice would be
to watch for the whisky that's sent away,
capture the men handling it and compel
them to show the exact location of the
distillery."
Several days passed and still I made
no progress. I was not regarded in that
light of suspicion which I thought would
characterize my appearance among the
people, and I was soon convinced that
the farmers around were not in sympa
thy with the distillers. Finally I told
Anderson my business.
"Well," he said, "if I can do any
thing for you, I'll do it cheerfully, but
let me advise you not to go into the hills.
Watch the river, as that is the only way
they can possibly ship the stuff. I am
going up the river to day after some
walnut lumber, and if you will accom.
pany me we may make a discovery. Ad
you have no doubt noticed 1 make a
great many coffins. Not for government
officials," he added, with a smile, "but
am supplying cheap coffins for the New
Orleans market. During an epdeniic,
it is almost impossible to get coffins to
the city fast enough, and at such times
I . employ quite a number of men.
Come and I'll show you my place of
business.
The shop stood near the river bank.
Several workmen were employed in
dressing walnut lumber.' Coffins were
stacked up all around, and a flat boat
was being loaded with the deathly furni
ture. I did not go up the river with
Anderson, bat took a boat ride with
his daughter. She was not devoid of
charms and. she chatted gaily as she
rowed.
"I want pa to leave place," she
said. "Mother pined away and died
from sheer loneliness, and if I were not
so light hearted.I think I should go that
way too."
"Do you ever see anv of the illicit dis
tillers?" I asked.
"I expect I see them, but I don't
know them, of course. They are terri
ble when they get mad, bnt as long as
they are not disturbed you wouldn't
know that they were in the neighbor
hood. When we moved here they re
garded pa with lincrerine-
finally, satisfied that he was in no way
connected with the . government, they
dismissed their ap jrehensions and have
ever since treated him with the utmost
courtesy. Pa is making money out of
the coffin business, but it is such a grim
trade that I cannot half enjoy any finan
cial benefit that we derive from it. Say,
you're hunting for thte wild cats, ain't
you?"
"Hush, don't talk so loud."
"Nobody can hear us, but you ate,
ain't you?" -
"Suppose I were, do you think I
would tell anybody?"
"I heard you tell father, but it's all
right. I won't eay anything about it.
I haven't any friends among the wild
cats, and for my part I wouldn't care if
they were all in prison."
"I remained several days longer, and
then decided to return to the city, report
unfavorably, adopt other measures, and
again take up the enterprise. Anderson
advised me to sell the horse and go down
with a flat boat load of coffins. I did
not like the idea, but reflecting that it
would be safer, I disposed of my horse,
and was soon ready for the voyage.
I bade my friends an affectionate fare
well, and stood on a coffin big enough
for the Cardiff giant, and waved my
handkerchief at Sophia Anderson as the
boat rounded the bend. We had started
early, and by the time the shadows be
gan to lengthen, we were a long distance
from Dripping Spring. It seemed to
me that the men on the boat watched
me curiously, for every time I walked
around it appeared that one of them fol
lowed me. My suspicions increased as
evening came on, and when I saw the
men engaged in a whispered conversa
tion, I was convinced that violence was
meditated. Happening to notice a cof
fin on which Beveral others were piled,
I saw something dripping from it. Just
then I looked up and saw a gun leveled
at me. In another instant a bullet
whizzed close to my head, so close that
1 fell backward into the water. I did
not lose my presence o mind and kept
myself under water as long as possible.
W hen 1 arose to the surface, several
other shots were fired, and sinking again
I remained under water until I reached
tbe shore, which fortunately was not far
away, when I arose under a thick clump
of willows. Through the gathering dark
ness I could dimly see the men, and
couli hear the splashing of an or which
I knew was manipulated to keep the
boat from floating down.
"I reckin' he's all right," said one of
the men.
"I know he is," a gruff voice replied,
' fer I drawed a bead on his head, an' a
man what kin hit a haffer dollar sixty
yards ain't no slouch of a shooter, lemme
tell yer. 'Bet he's got a bullet through
his brain, ef he's got any brain."
"I'd ruthcr bet on the bullet than the
brain," the first speaker rejoined.
"We've got to be certain about these
things," said a man who seemed to be in
authority. "You know what Anderson's
orders in. Git a boat thur, Jack, an' you
an Tom paddle out thar awhile. Go
out thar to them willows."
The boat was lowered and the splash
ing oi the oars came nearer and nearer
My heart beat violently. Great God
the moon came out and shone lull on my
face. I eased myself down until only
tne up oi my nose was above the sur
face. "Thank heaven," I breathed as
cloud obscured the moon just as the
boat brushed the willows. They struck
under with the oars, actually struck me
once, and just as I was about to seize
the boat and take my chances of turnincr
: l -l ... . .
it, over ana escaping, one oi them said
"He's all right, I tell you. Think I
can't hit a man's head? Rhmm hr r.ir "
and I breathed a prayer as the tip of the
oars grew fainter.
I remained in that uncomfortable po
sition about a half hour loncrer. then
drew myself out and was soon traveling
turougn tne woods. After a terrible
journey of hunger and fatigue I reached

When hailed they readily complied
and approached the bank. They did not

"Mout find him if you wuster cro over

"That's unnecessary," I remarked.
stepping from behind a tree and con-
ronting the villains. They threw up
their hands and prayed that their lives
might be spared. We did not intend to
give them the least chance of escape and
securely pinioning their hands, we took
them down to the boat, where, after gain
ing all possible information, I left them
under a strong guard. We were not
ong in gaining the neighborhood of An
derson's residence. It was a late hour
t night, and we surrounded the house
without alarming anyone. I instructed
pne of my officers to call Anierson, and
again i secreteu mysen.
"Halloa!"
"All right," came from within the
house, and pretty soon Ander6oa ap
peared.
"Mr. Anderson, I believe," said, the
officer.
"Yes, sir; won't yon come it?"
"No, hardly got the time. I've come
to this neighborhood in suarch of Mijor
Griddlewood. Are jou acquainted with
him?"
"Oh, yes, should say I am, for he and
my daughter are to bs married soou. I'll
show her to you. Here, Soph," and the
girl came out. ' Here is a gentleman
who is looking for your intended hus
band.'? "Good evening, sir. Looking for the
major, eh? How I wibh I could see
him."
"Here I am," I said, emerging from
my hiding place, aud confronting my
"intended" and her father. Anderson
actuary fell on the ground and his
daughter uttered a shriek that made the
woods ring. They were soon made pris
oners and taken to the boat. Next day
tbe distillery was easily found and de
stroyed. The coffins were fonnd to be
lined with tin, and ; although ominous
looking casks, were not bad as vessels of
shipment.
The prisoners were tried and punished
to tbe full extent of the law, and
ever
nce then, the Dripping Spring neigh
Dorhood has been one of the most order
ly and law abiding communities in the
state.
Martin Lather.
The celebration of the four hundredth
anniversary of the birth of Martin
Luther, which took place on the 10th of
November, 1883, awakens a new interest
in his history and the work he accom
plished. I
He was born on the 10th of November,
1483, of hnmble parentage, at Eisleben,
Saxony. There was little remarkable
about him as a boy. Others were as
studious and capable, and when he at-
X Al XT -a . T1 m . .. .
wuueti me university oi li.riurt It is
doubtful if he was any more proficient
in ms studies tuan is many a young col
legian of o-day. But he was a consci
entious student, who wanted an original
knowledge of ail things, and there was a
mighty energy and determination about
him which could not be put down when
ojee aroused. While in the Augustine
convent at Erfurt he conceived an idea
but for which he might have passed his
life in the seclusion of the cloieter. He
went through a spiritual crisis, revolving
in his mind the teachings of tbe church,
and poring over the old books in the li
brary, and it was then that a conviction
took root in his soul that sins could only
be forgiven through the grace of God.
It was little thought by the people of
wiiienperg tuat tne young man in sacer
dotal rooes, who advanced such strange
ideas in lecturing at the university, was
to mane tne town famous in historv, and
change tha thought of the world. It was
in Wittenberg that he nailed the ninetv-
fiye theses against the sale of indulgences
upon tne gate of the church, and offered
to maintain them in the university
against all impugners. At Wittenberg
he published those famaus addresses and
treatises about the year 1520, which
sowed the seeds of reformation abroad
m the land. It was there, too. that he
burnt the theses of Tetzel and the pope's
uuu at tne gate of the city. All Ger
many was convulsed with excitement,
and Luther was s ummoned before the
diet at Worms. With heroic courage he
resolved to obey the summons. In spite
ot tne threats of enemies and the anx
iety of friends, he attended the diet and
defined his position to the'assem bled sov
ereigns. He closed his speech with
iuuoc lauiuus wurus: nere l take mv
stand. I can do no otherwise, so help me
God. Amen." Despite the awfnl m.
nace of the pope and the priests, Luther
continued to scatter the seeds of reform,
ujju m eloquence courage and power,
displayed on many famous occasions
determined the fortunes cf the Refor
mation. About the last important act of
his life was the maintenance of his pecu
liar views in regard to the sacrament of
the Lord's supper at the famous confer
ence of Marburg, and in February, 1546,
sixteen years after, he died.
The people of Wittenberg held a eelo-
oration m advance of the official com
memoration on the 12th of September.
It was a great day for this old town,
where Luther first made public his con
viations and defended them. About 50,
000 people were present, among whom
were the Crown Prince Frederick
William, Prince Albrecht and Herr Von
Gossler, minister of ecclesiastical affairs.
In America his birthday will be cele
brated everywhere, and in some cities
the celebration will continue for two "or
three days. A statue of the great re
former will be erected in Washington
near the Luther Memorial church. It is
about double life size, representing
Luther standing in clerical robes, and
resembling the magnificent figure on the
famous monument at Worms. A national
committee are now perfecting arrange
ments for the event.
On the 13th of April. 1525. Martin
Luther married Catharine de Bora, a nun
in the Cistercian convent of Nimptchen
wuicn sue nad entered at an early ae.
bhe was born on the 29th of January,
1199. After she had become acquainted
with the doctrines of Luther she was no
longer content with monastic life, and
ueiermined to withdraw from it. Her
relatives refused to permit such
action, and with eight other nuns she an-

hecured their liberty in 1523, and cominc

mate in the house of a burcomaster.
Through his friend, Nicholas Von Ams-
dorf, Luther offered her the hand of a
pastor in Orlaoauende. She declined this
offer, but declared herself willing to
marry Von Amsdorf or Luther himself.

The recent death of this, the sole sur
vivor of all the slaves once hel in bond
age m tbe northern states, has been
announced. She passed awav teae ef nl lv

owners had been considerately kind to
uer. oae experienced but littla differ
ence between a condition of slavery and
a condition of freedom. She was born in
the year 1781. and was older than th
federal constitution. Forty-three years
she was a slave. In 1816 she passed from
Mr. Lennon's.her master's, possession to
that of a Mr. Merrick. The latter WAS
as kind to her as the former. In 1817
a law was enacted declaring the absolute
emancipation of all slaves in the
com-
monwealth of New York at the
expira
non ot ten years, on the fourth .Uv nf
day
July, 1827. But this hardly affected
her. bhe was a contented and amire-
ciated domestic whether as bond woman
or freed Woman. KivA nifiinfaina.1 n
' mi u vu a
bnghtsome cheerfulness through life.
Up to her seventy-fifth year she took de
light in such household duties as ere
allotted to her, such as cookinj? and the
care of children. Then tigna of feeble
ness appeared and Mr. .Merrick died.
From the death of Mr. Merrick, which
curreJ tbout twenty years oeo. she
never recovered her joyous pnirirs. Ilr
gentleness aud desire to be useful ie-
cuained, but an ineradicab'e raelaueholv
settled upon her. She immediately began
to show signs of decline; yet no to the
age of ninety five she was able, with the
assistance of cane, to hobble about the
bouse, and to ride out in pleasant
weather.
The year, in -which she obtained her
reedom was that in which the United
States government commenced tn
eedmen back to Africa. The settle
ment of Liberia bad been founded in
822 by the American colonization so
ciety, through the influence mainly of
lenry Clay; and government to a great
expense in the forwarding of such as
were then enfranchised, and were made
to go to the continent of their forefath
ers. At the same time the slavH inula
between Quiuea and the southern states
was surreptitiously, but with much en
ergy, carried on. The abolitionists of
the north had commenced to be active,
and even in Baltimore a newspaper was
started called The Genius of Ut fcrersal
Emancipation. It was short lived, how
ever, as might hive been expected in
that quarter. In Boston even, at that
date, it would have been dangerous to
establish a journal of the kind. The su
preme conrt of Massachusetts declared
a hundred years ago that the "equal"
passage in the declaration of independ
ence did not apply to slaveholding. This
was about the time of the birth of Jane
Lennon. She ha9 now gone to her re
ward, a gentle and faithful woman
through a century of trials that were
most bnrdensome, and ultimate bless
ings in tbe world.
The Romance of a Pardon.
James McDougall, who was sentenced
to imprisonment in the Auburn, N. Y.,
prison for ten years in October, 1877,
for burglary in the first degree, has been
pardoned. The governor gives the fol
lowing excellent reasons for his action:
"The wife of the convict left him and
for some time he conld not discover her
whereabouts. He learned that she was
living with another man, ostensibly as a
domestic, but, as it now seems to be
conceded, actually in a very different re
lation. The husband's repeated requests
that she shnuM return to him and restore
his child, which she had taken with her,
and his efforts in that direction were re
sented by the man with whom she was
living. The crime of which the prisoner
was convicted consisted in his bursting
into the house where his wife had taken
up her abode, in the night, apparently
with the idea of reclaiming her and his
child. He was confronted by tae man
who had alienated his wife and was har
boring her and was shot by him and
nearly killed. As soon as he had suffi
ciently recovered of his wounds to ap
pear in court he was convicted of bur
glary in the first degree and sentenced to
prison for ten years. I Nearly six years of
his term of imprisonment having expired
had but little diffieulty in agreeing with
the judge who sentenced him and the
attorney who prosecuted the indictment,
that he should be released."
The frequency of divorces among peo
ple in the humbler ranks in Switzerland
is accounted for by the custom of allow
ing young persons to marry with the
clear understanding that if thev crow
tired of each other's society at the end of
a year, they will go before a court with a
petition for divorce on the ground of in
compatibility of temper; and this peti
tion is generally granted.
A house was burning at Oshkosh.
Wis., and a woman was left inside. Her
husband cried, "Five thousand dollars
to the man who Baves her!" A fireman
dashed in at crreat personal risk, and
brought her out alive. Although the
husband is very wealthy, he refused to
give a dollar of the reward; but the su
preme court decides that the offer of
$5000 was.tvalid, and that the money
must be paid.
