A Quaker's word is good, oven among thieves; so, after a hasty 4 g??od night," the 'rebber thrust his pistol iuto his pocket, and with his two companions, one of whom had held the reins of the leaders, was about departing. "Slop!" exclaimed the Quaker, in a tone more of command than of re quest. "Stop!

"Stiip !" the Quaker again exclaimed. "And if any oue of thy sinful comp m imiH advanced a st< n to thv relief the spirit will surely move mo to blow thy brains o?t." The robber at tho opposite window, and the ouo at the leaders' heads, thought it a good time to leave.

"Thee had better not delay j I feel the spirit begin to move my right foro fin- er.''
