Horribly Scared.
"Not long after the war 11 circus,
came to Montgomery. It was the
first circus that had been thero lu n
long time, and attracted an Immense
crowd, especially of tho negroes.
Tho most Interesting feature of the
entertainment was tho balloon ascen
sion. The negroes had never seen
anything of that kind, and regarded
the spectacle of n man sullllig up In
Into the clouds very much as they
would have looked upon Elijah
going up in his chariot of fire.
Tho balloon sailed away eight or
ten miles, and came down lu a Held
where some negroes Mere plowing.
Terrified at tho spectacle of a chariot
coming down from heaven, they
verily believed that the last great
day had come, and, remcmlieriugnll
their short comings, fled away In
terror at the approach of the awful
Judge.
"One gray headed and rheumatic
old negro was unable to get away.
He could follow the plow, but could
not run, and the chariot came down
Uwn him with terrible swiftness.
In that awful moment his whole life
rushed upon him, he thought of alt
the petty sins he had committed,
and tho ghosts of a hundred chick
ens seemed to rise up in Judgment
against him. Rut in that desperate
emergency his mind did not desert
him, and remembering that polite
ness always counted with his earth
ly master, he quickly decided to
greot tho Lord of heaven and earth
In becoming style. As tho uerouuul
touched the e-irth and began to en
tangle himself from the meshes
about ills car the old darkey, with
an air of profound obeisance remov
ed the wool hat from lilt shiny pate,
bowed low and said with pious unc unc
teon: "Morning,' Mars Jesus; how
you leP your pa'." "
