MARY MOOEE. A PLEASANT LOVE STOKV. CHAPTER 1. All my lifelong I had known Mary Moore. All my lifo I loved her. Our mothers were old play mates and first cousins. My first recollection is of a boy, in a rod frock and morocco shoes, rocking a cra dle in which reposed a sunny-haired, blue eyed baby not quite a year old. That boy was j myself-Harry Church ; that blue-eyed baby was Mary.^??Orc. Later stilt, I sen myself nt the little school house, drawing my little chaise un to the door, that Mary might ride homo. Many a beating have I gained on such ? occasions, for other boys besides mo liked her, and she, I fear, was something of a flirt, even in her pinafores. How elegantly she came tripping down the steps when I called her name! how sweetly her blue eyes looked up nt nie ! how gayly rang out her merry laugh 1 That fairy laugh ? No one but Mary could ever bring her heart so soon to her lips! I followed that laugh from my days of childhood till I grow an awk ward, blushing youth-I followed it through thc heated noon of manhood-and now, when thc frosts of agc arc silvering my hair, and many children climb my knees nnd call mc " father," I find that thc memories of youth arc strong, and that, even in grey hairs, I am following its music still. - When 1 was fifteen tho first great corrow of my life came upon my heart. I was sent to College and was obliged to part with Mary. We were not to see each other for three long i years ! This, to mc, was like a sentence of death, for Mary was like life itself to me. Hut hearts are tough things after all. 1 left college in the flush and vigor of my nineteenth year. 1 was no longer awkward and embarrassed. I had grown into a tall slender stripling, with a very good opinion of myself, both in general and particular, If I thought of Mary Moore, it wi o to imagine how I would dazzle and bewilder her with my good looks and wonderful attainments-never think ing that shb might dazzle and bewilder mc still moro. I was a cox-comb, I know ; but ns youth and good looks have fled, I trust I may be believed when I say that sclf-eonscit lins left mc also. An advantageous proposal was made to mo at that time, and, accepting it, I gave up all idea of profession and I prepared to go to thc Indies. In my hurried visit homo of two days I saw nothing of Mary Moore. She had gone to n boarding school nt some distance, mid was tho not expected homo till following May. I uttered ono sigh to the memory of my little blue-eyed playmate, and hen oallcd myself " a man again." "In a year," I thought, as tho vehicle whirled away from our door-" in a year, or throe years at thc very most, I will return, and if Mary isas pretty ns she used to be, why then, perhaps, I may mnrry hoy." And thus I settled tho futuro of a young lady whom I had not seen for four years. I never thought of the possibility of her refu sing mc-never dreamed that she would not condescend to accept my offer. But tfow I know that, lind Mary met mc then she would have despised me. Perhaps in tho scented and affected student she might have found plenty of sport; but as for loving mo, or feoling tho slightest interest in me, I should have porhaps found that I was mista ken. India was my salvation, not incroly because of my success, but bcoauso my laborious in dustry had counteracted tho evil In my naturo and mndo mo a better man. When at tho .nd of three yoars ? prepared te-return, I said Nothing of tho reformation in myself which I now had taken place. "They loved mc as I wnn," I murmured to iiivaclf, "and they shall find Out for them solvos whether I ant better worth loving thnu formerly." 1 packed up many a token, from that land of romaneo and gold, for tho friends I hoped to meet. Thc gift for Mary Mooro I. selected with n beating heart ; it was a ring of rough, virgin gold, with my natno and hors engraved inside-that was all, and yet tho sight of tho little toy strangely thrilled me as I balanced it upon thc tip of my finger. To tho eyes of others it was but a small, plain oirolet, suggesting thoughts, porhops by its elogance, of thc beautiful white bond that was to wear it. But to mc-how much was embodied there ! A loving smile on a beauti ful face-low words of welcome-a future home, aud a sweet smiling face-all these de lights wore hidden within that little nug of ?old! Cit Arr KR ir. Tali, bearded and sun bronzed, I have ! knocked nt the door of my fa th or's house. Tho lights in thc parlor windows and thc hum of conversation and cheerful laughter showed mo that company was assembled there. 1 hoped my sister Lizzie would conic to thc door, and that 1 might greet my family when no strange oye was looking curiously on. Hut no-a servant answered my summons. They woro too merry in the parlor to hoed tho long absent ono when bc asked for admittance. A bitter thought like this was passing through my mind, as 1 heard the Bounds-from thc par lor, and saw thc half suppressed smile upon tho servant's face. I hesitated for a moment beforo I mode my self known or asked after thc family. And while I stood silent, a strange apparition grew up before me. From behind the servant peered out a small golden head-a tiny, deli cate form followed, and a sweet; childish face, with blue eyes, was lifted up to mine-so like to those of one wdio had brightened my boy hood, that I started back with a sudden feel ing of pain. " What is your name, my little one ?" 1 asked, while tho wondering servant held thc I door. She lifted up her hands as if to shade her j eyes, (1 had seen that very attitudo in anoth or in my boyhood, many and many a time,) j and answered iu a sweet, bird-like yoicc : " Mary Moore." " Aud what else?" I asked quickly. " Mary Moore Chester !" lisped the child. My heart sank down like lead. Herc was an end to nil thc bright dreams and hopes of my youth and manhood. Frank Chester, my boyish rival, who had often tried, and tried in vain to usurp my place beside tho girl, had succeeded at last, and had won her away from mc ! This was thc child-his child and Mary's ! I sank, body and soul, beneath this blow. And hiding my face iu my hands, I leaned against tho door, whilo my heart wept tears of blood. The little ono gazed at me, grieved and amazed, and put up her pretty lips as if about, to cry, while the perplexed servant stepped to thc parlor door and called my sis ter out, to see who it was that conducted him self so strangely I heard a light step, and a pleasant voice saying: " Did you wish to see my father, sir?" I looked up. There stood a pretty, sweot faccd maldon of twenty, not much changed from the dear little sister T had loved so well. I looked at her for a moment, and then, still ing thc tumult of my heart by a mighty effort, I opened my arms and said : u Lizzio, don't you know mc ?" "Harry! Oh, my brother Harry'!" she cried, and throw herself upon my breast. She wept as if her heart would break. I could not weep. I drew her gently into the lighted parlor, and stood with her before them all. There was a rush and a cry of joy, and then my father and mother sprang towards mc, and welcomed mo home with heartfelt tears ! Oh, strange and pressing sweet is such a greeting to the way-worn wanderer ! And as I held my dear old mother to my heart, and grasped my father's; hand, whilo Lizzie still clung beside mo, T felt that all was not yet lost, and though another has secured life's choicest blessing, many a joy remained for mo in this dear sanc tuary of home. There wore four other inmates of thc room who had risen on my sudden entrance. One was tho blue-eyed child whom I had already seen, and who now stood beside Frank Ches ter, e inging to his hand. Near by stood Liz zie Moore, Mory's eldest sister, ond in a dis tant comer, to- which she hod hurriedly re treated when my name was spoken, stood a tall and slender figure, half hidden by tho heavy window curtains that fell to thc floor. When the first rapturous greeting was over, Lizzio lcd rae forward with a timid grace, and Frank Chester grasped my hand. u Welcome home my boy 1" ho said with the loud cheerful tones I remembered so well. " You havo changed so that I never would have known you ; but no matter for that your hcait is in its right place 1 know." " How can you say bc is changed?" paid my mothor, gently. "To bo sure, ho looks older, and graver, and moro like a man, than when ho wont away-but his eyes and smile arc tho same ns ever. It is a heavy heart that changes him. He is my boy still. "Ay mother," I answered, sadly; "lam your boy still." Iloavon help me ! At that moment I felt liko a boy, and it would havo been a blessed relief to have wopt upon her bosom, ns J had done in my infancy. But I kept down tho beating of my heart and tho tromor of my lip and answered quietly, ns I looked in his full handsome faoo. " Yow have changed too, Frank, but I think for tho bettor." "Obj yes-thank you for that compliment," ho;answered with n hearty lough, 1* My wife Vf - . tolls mo I grow handsomer every day." His wifo I- oould 1 hear that namo nnd keep silouco still ? "And have you seen my little girl?" ho added, lifting tho infant in his arms, and kiss iug her orimsoned cheek. 1 tell you, Harry, there is not suoh another in thc world. Don't you think she look's very much Uko her mother used to look ?" " Yory muoh !" I faltered. "Hullo I" cried Frank, with a suddenness, that made mc start violently. " I have for gotten to introduce you to my wife ; 1 believe you and she used to bo playmates in your young days-yes Harry?" and he shipped mc on thc back. " For tho sake of old times and because you were not herc at thc wed ding, I'll give yon leave to kiss her on oe-but mind old fellow, you are never to repeat the ceremony. Come-hero she is, and I for one want to sec how you will manage those ferocious mustaches of yours in the opcratiou. He pushed Lizzie, laughing and blushing towards inc. A gleam of light and hope, al most too dazzling to bear, came over inc, and 1 cried out bef?te I thought. ?Not Mary !" It must have betrayed my secret to every ono in the mom. Hut nothing was paid even Frank, in general so obtuse, was this timo silent. IJdsscd tho fair cheek of tho young wife, and hurried to the silent figure looking out of thc wiudow. "?Mary-Mary Moore," I said in a low, ea ger voieo, "have you no welcome to give thc wanderer ?" She turned and laid her hand in mine, and and murmured hurriedly : " I am glad to sec you hero, Harry." Simple words-and yet how blest they made inc ! 1 would not have yielded up that moment for an emperor's crown ! For there was thc happy home group and thc dear home fireside, there sweet .Mary Moore ! The eyes ? had dreamed of hy day and night were fail ling before the ardent gaze of mine, and the sweet face 1 had so long prayed to sec was there before me I I never knew thc meaning of happiness till that moment came. Many year? have passed since that happy night, and the Ipi ir that was dark and glossy thon, is fast turning grey. 1 am now grow ing to bc an old man, and can look back to a long, happy, and 1 hope, a well spent, lifo.- j And yet sweet as it has been, I would not re- . call a single day, for thc love that made my : manhood so bright, shines also upon my white hairs. An old man ! Can this be so? At heart I am as young ns ever. And Mary, with her bright hair parted smoothly from a brow that has a slight furrow upon it, is still the Mary of carly days. To ino, she can never grow ! old, nor change. . The heart that held her in j infancy, and sheltered her in the flush and I beauty of womanhood, can never cast her out till lifo shall cease to warm it. Nor even then j -for love still lives above. A Hero of Four Wars Some of thc details of one of thc most re markable careers that perhaps ever was expo- j rienccd have come into our possession, nnd wc give thc account to our readers, as wo re ceived it, only promising that we have not tho remotest grounds for supposing the story ex aggerated. Thc man is now employed on a farm two or three miles from this city, and has a good character for veracity. About thc year 1821), one of the strongest and most daring of the bands of Hangers who guarded thc frontiers of Texas were command ed by a North Carolinian named Worth, and among all its members none possessed more hardihood or personal strength than thc he ro of this sketch, lie was a Kentuckian, was a splendid rider, a dead shot, could hold his own with any of his comrades in cither drinking or fighting, and was looked upon us a dangerous man to tamper with. Of uncom monly amiable temper, however, he gave no cause of offence lo nny, and had the good will of all. In all the wild fights with the Caman ches and tho "Greasers" in which his com mand engaged, he took an active part; and when thc war for Texan independence com menced he was oho of thc first to offer his arm to his adopted land. Suffice it to say that bc served under General Houston through that memorable etrugglo with great credit, though as a private. Thc declaration of war between thc United States and Mexico, in 1840, found him again ready; and enlisting as a Ranger uudcr ?lack Hays, ho followed tho Lone Star again to tri umph, receiving ns ho had in previous cam paigns, several honorable scars. For several years after thc cessation of hos tilities he lived quiotly on his ranche, but, tiring of such a tamo courso of existence, ho joined a regiment of regular calvary and pro ceeded to Florida, where he served in thc Sem in?lo war until tho capture of Billy Bowlogs nnd tho conclusion of peace, when he was discharged and returned home, where he re mained until the State of Arkansas passed, her ordinance of secession, whon ho immedi ately joined a regiment of infantry from that Stuto in the Confederate service and went t Virginia. At tho battlo of Shnrpsburg, in Maryland, ho rocoivod seven wounds, and fainted from pain nnd loss of blood. At thc time that General Leo ordered the retreat to thc Virginia side, tho men had gathered up their dead and.wcro making rude preparations to inter thom. Our hero by this moan* os caped being buried, and his comrades were startled, a few days after, by tho report that ho had been sent over thc river and forwarded to tho hospital nt Staunton. Ho recovered, and soon after rejoined his regiment, proceed ed with it to Georgia, whore bc was engaged in tho bloody battle of Ohieamaugn. Hofe ho way shot through tho head, (tho hall en tering at tho right chook dione nnd passing out behind thc left cat,) anti was again loft for dead. Ho waa carried to Nashville, and, con trary to nil expectations, he ogaiu got well, made his escapo from Captivity and returned to.Virginia, whore ho served until tho sur render of Geu. Leo's anny, when ho toole his foot in his baud, walked to Arkansas, aud thence homo. This bravo old man-tho hero of four wars and fifty battles, and thc recipient of twenty seven wounds, at tho band of Cumanohcs, Mexicans, Seminoles and Federals--landed at our city two or three weeks ago, and was garro ted and robbed iu less than half nu hour after leaving tho boat, fie is now working nt bard labor, to make money to take him to his native Kentucky, whose loved sod his foot has not pressed for thirty-six years. Ho says that wheo his visit to his relatives is concluded, provided the Fenians have any chance of success, be will give them u lift. -- . - Heavy on the Thief. Some villainous fellow, without the fear of thc law before his eyes, feloniously entered thcslccping apartment of a printerat Atlanta, u few nights since, whereupon Watson of thc " New Ern," lets off tho following series of shells, grape, sehrapnel, and minnie balls a. him. Ile bad better fiend back the stolen goods and get A. ll. to take back his "cussiu." Hear thc latter : ''Some wretch entered thc sleeping apart ment of n printer on Saturday night, and stole most of his wardrobe, including a suit of new clothes. A man who would do such a thing as that would steal thc headstone from his mother's grave, to knock his father's brains out. Ho would borrow a key from his moth er-in-law to unlock his wife's toilet that he may steal her pin-money. He would steal an orange from his sick baby if ho could sell it for two confs.

May no rain fall on his potato-patch, his pea-vinos grow green persimmons, mid his snap beans grow emetics. May twins bc born unto him, ?nd n cow-hide given to each to lash their father with. May he be compelled to teach a nepro school through the month of August. Way he bc allowed to read nothing but " limper's Weekly," Now York Trib une," and "Erownlow's Whig."
