All druggists. T"A urely a vegetable compound, General Washington’s coach of state, Bound for Cambridge, had reached the lane: In it the general, grave, sedate, Sat planning the course of a great campaign, For a terrible struggle possessed the land, I And the fate of a nation was in his hand! Riding before came horsemen twain; i If the truth be told they were young and vain. They reached at length, in the narrow road. The farmer, perched on his fragrant load. “Lazy bones, haste! You are all too slow; How can we pass, we should like to know? General Washington rides this way! Turn out, turn out for the coach!” cried they. But Parsons doubted the courier’s word, The soldier hero?—’twas quite absurd! He was still in congress the last he heard! He turned — looked back through the vista green; No sign of the uncrowned king was seen. These were playful youths, it was very plaiiil He would meet their sport with a calm disdain! And his right to the road to the end maintain, A droll procession in truth they made That summer day in the green arched glade! A frowsy colt was the first in view. Vanguard of the rustic’s retinuel A white mare next, then oxen four (“Five cattle team,” the name it bore); Then the peasant prince, who a crown would scorn. High on his throne of fresh cut corn; The baffled horsemen behind him came, And last of all rode the one whose name Was yet to conquer the pride of kings. Whose truth and courage the world yet sings! Still unmindful of rank so near. Parsons the order refused to hear, ’ When, nearing the ferry where all must wait— “Make way, make way for the coach of state!” Again they cried in a stern command; He plodded on till, whip in hand, He calmly got down at the river’s brink To let the mare and the oxen drink! He turned—and then, for the first time saw The strong right arm of the colonies’ law! A freeman true, he had dared to stand. And the right to the king’s highway ‘demand In the face of the greatest in all the landl He speechless stood, and his brown face paled.

Sleight of Hand Poisoning. A very curious item in toxicological lore I chanced to light upon may be called the feat of poisoning by sleight of hand. You were jfealous of a lady and you wished to kill her. Well, you asked her to lunch, and you caused a very nice peach to be served at dessert. You cut the fruit with a golden knife, one side of the blade of which was endued with a deadly poison. You presented the poisoned half of the peach to the lady, who ate it. with much relish and then dropped down dead. . The wholesome half you ate yourself, and laughed in your sleeve, and went on slicing more peaches for the ladies of whom you were jealous—till you were found out and broken on the wheel. Aye, there’s the rub! What high old times we might have, to be sure, but for that plaguey contingency of being found out. —Gr. A. Sala, in London Sunday Times. Plunder Secured by the Police. “Look again,” Oliver insisted. “You’ve put me into a predicament—now see me through it.” Old Judee took his hand, and reached for one of Mrs. Armytage’s, too. Still kneeling, and with the hands tightly clasped, she gazed steadfastly at the young couple, and then beyond them into the distance. “I see yo’ both,” she said, “Yo’, Mass’r Oliver, is in front ob de soldiers.” “Ah! at last you’ve put mein com mand,” he interjected. “Dey am de Union soldiers—standin' still—standin’ solemn. Yo’ am facin' dem. Dey lifts dar guns. Dey fires at yo’ an’ yo’ falls. De lady am dar, too, pale as death. She am faintin’. She drops on de groun’. De smoke ob de guns gets thick. It hides yo’ both. I can’t see. Dat am all.” Old Judee arose to her feet, rubbed her eyes, had a minute of apparent bewilder ment, and then was sufficiently wide awake to take the coin which Oliver handed to her. “All humbug,” he said. “Of course,” Mrs. Armytage assented. But they gazed in silence after the black woman, as she walked away, and nobody was prompt to ridicule her prophecy. It had made, at least momen tarily, a serious impression on all who heard it, _____ tyr CHAPTER II. LOVE AND WAR, Half an hour later, Mrs. Armytage and Mrs. Dimmock were alone in the garden, when a lumbering carriage rolled to the gate. Cot Armytage, of the Union army, was the man who alighted. His .hair was white enough for seventy years, but his skin was sufficiently ruddy and smooth for fifty; and his age was a fair compromise betwixt the two—that is, sixty. He kissed his wife and said, “Your color indicates some sort of em’b- tion, and that is unusual in you. ” She replied, with perfect equanimity, that a wife ought to be pleasurably agitated on meeting her husband after a separation. “I have come to take you back to Springfield,” said he. Mrs. Armytage was frightened, and she furtively scanned his face for information of the reason; but there was no anxiety betrayed in her tone when she asked if they were to go soon. There was more feeling in the exclamation, “I am glad,” after he had said. “Immediately.” “I’m not,” said Mrs. Dipunock. The arrival of a carriage was' not so common’an event as to be uninteresting, and from the house emerged several ser vants. As they came toward the colongl he hastily said to his wife and Mrs. Dim- mock: “Gen. Lyon has arrived at Spring field. There is to be a forward movement. We can’t leave you.longer in a Confed erate household. Hush—they must not hear.”. May Willett came out, and Col. Army’ tage was presented to her. She wel comed him gracefully; and being told that her visitors were about to go away,' said that she was very sorry, which was a lie that politeness required of her. Mrs. Armytage hurried the prepara tions for departure with all her might, because- she hoped to avoid a meeting between her husband and' Oliver or Tu dor. She whispered her purpose to May who gave aid to its accomplishment. Col. Armytage went into the house for a glass of water before starting. May accompanied him. The two wives were waiting impatiently in the yard, when Oliver Willett and Tudor Bowne saun tered into it together. Mrs. Armytage fled like a coward into the house. Oliver attributed her withdrawal to displeasure at his recent half made avowal of love. From Mrs. Dimmock he learned of the intended sudden departure, and he con nected it instantly with his previous guess that his love making had given of fense. Mrs. Dimmock made a bold stroke by saying: “Col. Armytage is in the house—her father,” repeating the latter words so as i to fix them in Oliver’s mind, “and he I will take us away within fiverminutes. ; Now, listen to me,”- and she put her arms ; carelessly through those of the men. In this city the police in one year have seized over 12,000 chips', 116 packs of cards, four lots of Chinese coin, 223 dice, thirteen fautau brass cups, three faro layouts, 11,000 pool tickets, two sweat boards, eight poker tables, three roulette “He says the condition of this section is tables, three, whist boards and one bac dangerous.

Look for it after I am gone.” He seized her hand, and was about to kiss it, when Col. Armytage and the rest came out of the house. He stepped back into a shadow, from which, unseen, he heard them bid adieu to his sister and saw them ride away. “Drive fast,” said Col. Armytage to the negro who held the reins. He added to the women, “This neighborhood is not over safe for us.’ “It is full of peril,” said Mrs. Armytage. The journey of ten miles to Springfield was made in the early evening, and it conveyed Col. Armytage and the two ladies direct to the house where he had for a week been provisionally quartered. The town was a hubbub of military oc cupation. Gen. Lyon meant to advance upon the Confederates next day, and the preparations were Confused, for in those early days of the war- the operations had little of the precision and orderliness subsequently achieved. Col. Armytage’s absence, though brief, had left his duties to accumulate, and he had no time to devote to his regained wife. Frivolous Mrs. Diimriock, interested by the hurly-burly, had ad thought of the farm house that she;' had so recently quitted; but Mrs. Arnytage wandered bench, leaned aganWme tree that made a back for it, and turned her face toward the bright moon, which had risen just high enough to shine over the wall that lined the garden on that side. Externally she was the placid, cool, young beauty. In her mind, so well hidden by her char acteristic self control, was being formed, and not without a struggle, a firm reso lution to think no more of Oli ver Willett. A noise at the wall startled her, and Oliver leaped over. He stood before her, took off his hat, and .bowed low. His entrance to the garden had been rapid and resolute; but now he was hesitant, as though a little confounded by his situation. Mrs. Armytage rose, and looked at him with wonder in her lustrous eyes, as she said: “What brings you here?” “You,”- he answered. “You are reckless.” “A lover knows no fear.” “But he should not let his own fear lessness be the destruction of the woman he loves.” “What do you mean?" “Did you get the message that I left for you?” “Yes; and came with it to its author.” They had spoken so rapidly that their dialogue thus far h:.J been as inconsider ate as it was exciting to them; yet she maintained by far the most composure, and when he would have grasped her bands she stepped back with a show of displeasure. “My letter told you,” she said, “that you must never see me again—that there was a sufficient reason why we must not meet.” “It told me. too.” he said, uncooled by her repellent manner, “what your lips had refused to tell. I had begun to believe that you were heartless, and the sudden knowledge of the truth—that you loved me—was like stimulant to an invalid—potent to tnSfflpH’ie blood tin gle, the heart boundandtlie brain whirl What could I do but come to you?” “Forget it if I wrote anything to en courage your madness. I was thought less—I scrawled hurriedly to escape ob servation. Remember only that I said we must not even think of each other.” “I know the letter word for word.” He took from a pocket a crumpled sheet of paper that looked like a page torn from a diary; but he scarcely glanced at it as he recited what was penciled on it. “It says: ‘The past two weeks were to me like a brief existence in another life than my own. I had never loved any man. My situation forbade me to enter tain such a sentiment, except for one who was powerless to excite it. You made me love you. ’ ” He held the writing before her, and added triumphantly, “they are your words.” . “Blot .them out and read the rest.” She stood with folded arms as passive as a statue. He read, aided by his recol lection and the bright light of the moon: “I am free to confess it because I also tell you that I must abjure the passion that makes me irresolute, while I write out my own sentence. I cannot bear to explain to you the reason why we must be straugers, but it is absolute, irresiti- ble, final.” “Why do you come here after that?” she said, stili calm. '1 •‘1 come to learn what the thing is that can part us.” “I will not tell you?" “Is it that you are a Unionist and I an officer in the Confederate army?”’ “No; that is not the reason.” He argued no more, but said, “You puzzle me,” as he thrust the paper into a breast pocket. She looked toward the house, with a thought for the first time of being observed; so absorbed had she been, despite her self possession. “Somebody will come,” she said. “Go St ene i j < I f j i Hfj) reoogejzeihere you might be put under arrest/^ He instantly coticludedFthat her re pulse of him had been/caused by her fear for his safety. That was pleasing to his vanity, and allaying to the doubts that had been taking shape in his mind as to whether she did love after all. He clasped her passionately: She did not struggle to escape, but resolved instead’ on the course that she well knew would be more effectuai, and which she was convinced she could not now avoid. She said: “Oh, must I abase myself before you? I desired you to forget me, or remember me respectfully. You compel me to tell you what it is that must keep us apart. I am a wife.” She was freed instantly. Not that he with intention recoiled from her; but his arms relaxed involuntarily, and he stood with the limpness of a man who had re ceived a terrible physical as well as men tal shock. He gasped out, after a pause: “A wife, did you say?” ! “YeS; wife of the man you thought was my father.” The first definite sentiment that was formed out of the jumbling of ideas in his mind was resentment; and he began: “Your deceit”----- , Jg- “You will forgive me,” she pleaded, in tone as well as in words, “when you know that at the first I had no deliberate thought of seriously deceiving you, when you consider the self condemnation I have suffered, when I tell you that the determination to be an honorable wife is made at the cost of a breaking heart.” I to bm qowí ’ íhwri Bare Confederate Silver Coins. Messrs. Roberts & Collins, of Carters ville, Ga., have, if they have not recently disposed of it, a coin in their possession which is only thirty years old, but is worth more than a thousand times its face value. It bears the date of 1861, and is one of four pieces struck at the Confederate mint at New Orleans before that institution was closed. The coin is a half dollar, and has the Goddess of Liberty on one side and a stalk of cane, a stalk of cotton, and the stars and bars of the confederacy in a coat of arms, with a liberty pole through it and a liberty cap on top on the other side. Of the four known specimens of this coin, one is in Meriwether county, Ga., one in Louisiana, the Roberts-Collins piece, above described, and one which sold for $800 in New York city in 1888.—St, Louis Republic.
