I hed junt come to fcr live thounaud by the ileatliof an uncle, the lost of kin. One evening, ut a nociul hop, I mot Marydou'i matter altout her other nameand wall, 'twas a cone of love from the word go. She wiw a rich man's daughter; my wmth.h didn't go for much 'gaiimt the tfoveruoi-'s; but thuu I hed pronpuctn. "Thing went on ez slick e ponniblefur a time, when my health failed, aud the -doctors ordered reHt and change. The gold fevor struck me, aud 1 made up my mind one day to dig -for a fortune in Calit'oruuy, and get my.heulth in tliu bargain. 'Course Mary cried, ami I givu up the trip twice, but finally got ntarted. "Gentlemen, I loved that gal uf ever mor tal loved any critter on God's green earth I I used to lie under the great nty roof on the prairie ut night, wrapped in a blanket, atarin' at the HtarM, building great big gold oaflOleH, and ninny's the time 1 turned my lions' heud round to go back to Mary. ,JSf I had gone back I'd never been here. "Wall, I reached the diggingn finally And located a claim e.t Gold Hill, and in nix months laid uway quite a pile, 1 wasn't much on drink then, au'd I didu't hev the red nose I ha' now. "One day a letter come telliu' me the .governor hed dropped nil he owned in the loss of three ships. Thin didu't bother me much, 'bout three mouths skipped by, and another come which made me wild. The letter was all full of love aud tear tains, and said that the man who had saved the governor from complete ruin wanted to marry her. , Hha objected, o' oourno, and the old man coaxed ami stormed, aud the uew lover waited, wist ful like. "I was (or golu' home, but Mury said no, et 'd spoil my chances. "Wall, the end come at lost. She mar ried him. The newn daaed me et Grst, for 1 couldn't gdtet through my head. Then I left the diggings for uowhere, and ended up well, 1 dually j I tied a party of scouts, and wandered over the western oouutry fig lit in' lujuus. "Two years Inter I was one of a party of ten proHpectin' in .the Walmntcb moun tains, In Utah. We had settled fer camp one evening in a natural oave not far from a, precipice, from whar we could look in the valley and over about two miles to the tuge cpttcji .trail, wlndin' In an' out 'tween the mountains. " "Iwasntandln'on a rock lookin' at the valley underneath, when 1 saw the stAge coach way up on the trail, roundin' the bluff. I called the hoys tocomeaud nee et, fer et was Bomethin' to see in them days. We squinted through ou' Kinases at the coach, and waved our hats, though we knew they couldn't see. Suddenly one of the boys said In an an excited way, 'Boys, they're goin' to be attacked; see them forms dodgin' in an' out round thet bluff?' 'Sure enough, said the whole crowd, 'but how are we goin'! to warn them?' We stood thar hesitatin'' until we saw the coach stop; then we ail made a rush together for the trail. "Took us over an hour to get thar, and we found the women huddled against the oliff, the driver and two men shot, and one woman gone. They'd been attacked by Molva, a Mexican hu If breed, and his gang of cutthroats. The men, headed by the husband of the woman Molva had stolen, had followed the band in pursuit. The busbund of the woman, the women said, wus about crnzy wi1 grief, and ned he'd And her If he hed to blow the mountain sky high to do it. "Captain Watson headed our party, and he knew every nook in the rauge. "'I'll bet my boots,' said the captain, thet they've gone over to Boar's Head canyon; ef we can't find them thar we'll look in ot the cave on the western slope.' "We didn't see nothin' suspicious et the canyon, and, after a hard pull, reached the cave. We were climbin' along the top o' the bluff, when the capt'n suddenly whis pered a halt, and we all laid low, 'Twas a starry night, and the capt'n had run across a hole in the turf where smoke was comiii' out In clouds. Tills wus the chimney of the cave fifty feet below in the bluff. "The women said thar was fifty in the party; we 'lowed they were mistaken. After some parley the capt'u hit on a plan which might work. Thar were ten o' us; nine war to stay on the bluff while the chimney was being choked, while one, which war me, wan to crawl down to the entrance 'o the cave, and when the crowd ruBhed out 1 wun to skip in and ffrab the woman. The boys above would tire on thfa crowd and get, thar attention to thet point. "The plan workod. I wan all safe behind a rock at the entrance when four or five of the gang come out wi' thar hands to thur epes, cough in'. The boys on top begun firiu', and nooa the whole crowd come out In a hurry. Took me about two necondn to get inside the cuve, ThesmokeuearstifJed me, but 1 crawled to whar 1 could hear a woman eoughiu'. Didu't take me lung to get her out. The woman was hangin' on me, half dead, and 1 was toilin up the side of the bluff, when all o' a sudden we run right agin the big Mexican. He grunted somethin' in Mexican, and felt fer us. His hand touched the wpmau. Theu we closed. 1 tried to hit him with the butt of my re volver, but a downward ntrokeof his arm knocked it dyln', Then I reached fer my bowie, and, while doing no, got this wipe across the face. I wan about blinded, but I got in a lunge on him which fixed him. I lost my head then, and the boys found me lying right on the Greaser. Thewomun was gone; no one had seeu her. The boyn found he.- the next day lyiu' et the foot o' the bluff dead. She'd ruu off thar in the dark. 1 wan lying in camp when the hoys brought her In, an' I must ha' been perty weak, fur the mi net I caught Bight o' that face, all bruised aud cut, 1 fainted dead away. It was Mary. 1 nevur told the boys. Her hunbund carried her away; but not 'fore I touched my sin stained lips to hers. He didn't suffer more'n 1 did, fer I hod to hide my feelin'. Her husband wan a wealthy mine owner, they told me, and hed taken his wife with him on one of his business tripn. "All the money I hed hoarded up went like mist arter that. Bomutimen I've beeu on my feet since, but uut fer long at a time. Luck's man me. I like the life though. I've been in ninny a ncrape, but allun come out o. k. P'rhni I hevn't hed enough trouble to please fate.'' "Mind telling me the mime of the mine owner!' asked tin drummer. "No; Silas Lar,,iu," answered the tramp, raising his head from his hands. "Of Boston f" "Yea." "One of the richest men in Boston; know him well," remarked the drummer. "By Georgel I'll write to him; he'll put you on your feet in good shape." The tramp raised himself proudly to his full height. "Partner, you may boa white man; bo Ihi 1, and I don't want no help from thet quar ter; I'll starve fust." "Kl Paso," called the brukemnn. "Whar yu be goin' to)1" asked the Texan. "I'm lualuu' fer Orleans." "Boys, chip in." Louisville Courier-Journal. Hungary' Ooruuutlun Mound. It seems curious that au event which made so much noise all over Kurope, no longer ago than the year 1853, as the dis covery of the biding place where Kossuth had concealed the crown of tit. Stephen, should lie so completely forgotten as your correspondent seems to think. I was wit ness many years latter, when in Hungary, of the veneration with which the ancient regalia of their nation were stilt regarded by the people. It wan quite the policy of the revolution to prevent the empetor of Aus tria being crowned with so revered acrown, but since he has worn it their loyalty, so long withheld, has been faithfully kept by the vast majority. The regalia are now preserved under the most jealous guard in the burg of Budn. The ceremony that is performed ou the Royal Hill is not exactly what the writer describes. The candidate for coronation does not have to "pull a nod," but he rides to the top of the mound, wearing the re galia, aud with the sword of St. Stephen In his baud takes the coronation oath, waving the sword ut the same time toward the four points uf the compass. The actual mound has been at Pressburg for centuries. It is composed of earth brought from each of the fifty-two prov inces of Hungary, in quantities relative to the sine of each; It is about fifteen feet high (speaking from memory), and is in closed by a handsome stone balustrade. As It was deoidud to hold the coronation of the present emperor at Bu da-Pea th, a pre cisely eimilar mound was built up there, some of the earth from the original one at Pressburg being incorporated into it.

Bell-praise is no recommendation, but there are times when one must permit a person to tell the truth about himself. When what he says is supported by the testimony of others no reasonable man will doubt his word. Now, to say that All cock's Porous Plasters are th'e only genu ine and reliable porous plasters made is not self-praise in the slightest degree. They have stood the test for over thirty years, and in proof of their merits it is only nec essary to call attention to the cures they have effected and to the voluntary testimo nials of those who have used them.
