A FLORIDA ROLANCE.
f Grm Hr aeiebodekeletuWulelIh.eve aU
One day during the progress of th
Pl1 Thompson trial one of the Florid
Senators, who had remained in Walb
ngton a greater part of the time sine
Congress adjourned, told a group c
gentlemen the story of an incident tha
came under his observation, which ii
all probability, has not its parallei i7
history or fiction.
"When a candidate for the Unite
States Senate," ho said, "in compan
with ton or a dozon other gentlemen,
canvassed the State of Florida from on
end to the other. Just at dusk one evenin
we arrived at a farm-house of rather pre
,tentiiUs appearance. We were warml
welcomed b>y the owner, who was know
at ieast to one of the p,arty. We wor
served with a splendid supper, at whiol
we were waited upon by 1)ie farmer
daughters-three bright, beautiful girle
The farmer occupied ono end of th
table and his wife, an elderly lady, witi
snow white hair and a benevolent lace
the other. I was at onco attracted b
the ariability of the family. They wor,
very cheerful and apparently ver
anxious to make each other very happy
The greatest regard was paid to thi
mother, and no opportunity 'vas lost t<
show respect and devotion to her.
''When the time came for retiring thi
farmer took from a shelf an ol(1, well
thunm ed Bible and said :
" ' Gentlemen, for nearly a score o
years it has beent my habit. to have familJ
worship be fore retiring. I hope you wil
join nai to-night.'
"Io read a chapter from the Bible
and wo all' knelt while he made a short
eloquent prayer. The next morning th<
samlo order, eheerfnlnefss and kindnoa
were noticealblo. When we rode away
from the house I said to a gentleman
who was next to me that I had never
witnessed a more peaceful, prosperous
home, and one where thore seemed to be
so much genuine happiness.
"My friend said : 'IF it possiblo that
you do not know this mal's story? He
passed through such a trial as drives

lesson. Ho has shown the moral cour

is a hero, dwelling hero among the peaco

has many sears upon his person, nade
by the bullets of the enemy. When h
was away to the war he left behind him
a young wife 11nd three little girls-mere
halies tlhey were. Ile was absent three
yeairs. While away his wife committed
the gravest of all iludiseretions. When
the husband returlned, his heart hungry
for the love of his dear ones, ho found
a disgraced and ruined home. The blow
prostrated him, and for days he lingered
between lite and - death. When his
heulth partially returned lie went to the
minister of his church for counsA and
advice. The minister toild him to aban
don the woman to her fate.
''' You caunotbring her to my church,"
he said, "as your wife. Your neighbors
will point the linger of scorn at you, and
will shun you if you forgive her and take
her to your home."
" 'He went to a neighbor-a good
man, a great-hearted man-and lIud the
case beforo him. He argued for his
lost wife, and pointed out what he
thought his duty was as taught him by
the Bible. His neighbor advised him to
coudono his wife's offense, to take her
back to his home and let her love and be

-A MIDNIVnT RECOGONITION.
Some time ago the wife of a merchant
was suddenly awakened in the night by
e the sound of footsteps in her bedroom,
a and the next momeut the light of a
dprk lantern flooded p4r face so near that
t she ooulc almost feel the heat and hear
I the suppressed breathing of the intrud
ter. Her husband ' was from home, and
a the only other person in the houso ex
a cept herself was a servant girl, who slept
in the story beneath. Her presenco of

I resignation and fortitude in a woman to

g sacking of her store of valuable laces
- and the appropriation of her jewelry;
y but the lady, very rationally deemed her
a life worth all the lace and dianionds in
o the world, quietly closed her eyes and
'a awaited the result..
s The light was withdrawn from her
. faco, and she heard the rustling of silks,
e the picking of looks, and occasionally a
i low whisper of surprise or disappoint
ment, Then there was silence for a full
r minute-it seemed an hour to her-and
a soft. footstep approached the bed, and
r the glare of the lantern again fell upon
her faoo. Through the closed lids of
3 her eyes she saw the light, but remained
) calm and motionless in its scrutinizing
rays, fearful that the least movement
3 might imperil her life. What a moment.
of suspense I The light was removed
from her face and she felt that sonic one
r was loaning against the bed. Still she
remained motionless. nor did she stir
I when the warm breath of the burglar
fanned her check. Not until his lips
pressed her forehead did she spring up
and half shriek:
"Who is in this room?"
i "hush I" responded a voice in a
hoarse whisper. while a rough hand was
laid on her shoulder: "Speak nothing
and fear nothing."
The next moment she heard the sound
of retreating footsteps and the creaking
of a shutter, then all was still again.
Satisfied that she was alone she spran
from tho led and touched a lighte<d
match to the burner, thou sank into a
chair, completely prosirated with the
danger through which she had passed.
lecovering le looked round to ascer
tain of what she had been plunderd.
Th. drawers were all in the utmost
confusion, but., strange to say, little or
nothing was missimg. A casket of jew.
elry was open on the bureau, but the
diniondo andi gold were all there. Bo.
side the casket she discovered a little
roll of paper containing a ring which had
been given to her many years before,
and which had beeu in her possession
ever since. Half bewildered at the sin
gular proceeding she was about to e,uit
I he pal.p r from her when her eye caught
the maiks of a pencil upon it. She care
fully opened it and read:
"This ring, which once was mine,
tells me in whose house I am. You
know I am an outlaw-the world knows
it, and I do not care to deny it; but,
fallen as I am, I cannot rob you, Maria,
Forgive me and 'God bless you.
"HENRY."
This explained all. Falling on her
knees, she prayed for him who had
written the scroll. And who was
"Henry?"
Ten years ago lie loved that name
Maria, and he wouid have made her his

and finally forged the name of his em

and she had kept it in remembrance of

of the ring.

A Lucky Chance.
Of all men no donbt the mechanic and
lnborer suffer more from disease than any
altheer class-not always in tile disease itselfr,
but the circumstances surrounding their
naseis. Who can d'epict a more hoyrifying
scene than that of the prosperous mechanic,
