The driver muttered something, but the liquor had thickened his speech so, that it was unintelligible to me, lost. length of three or four wiles, Dick smashing | the wagon along at a stunning gait and 1 expected every moment that my shell would be jostled out.) By and by there was a shout off to the right, the quarry, Nothing but an ae amount of liquor could have them conduct | themselves as they did, for no sooner called | out from the right, than Dick came to a sud- den halt, leaped from the seat and ran off toward those who were hallooing, For oné moment my heart stopped beating at the thought of the hazard I was about to run. The next moment I sprang from the coffin to the ground. A few lightning like strokes and 1 had severed the traces and the hold-backs of the harne: The whole scene is vividly pictured in my mind, The moon-lighted prairie, the ravine towards which the renegades were i standing in the trail-- of the falling thrills rench= cd the cars of the party, and with a shout they turned towards me.

Again that ecib reached nie, swelling out on the rising wind, It was the shrill sqeal of the file and the tum-diddle-um, tid-c-um- dum-dum-dum of .infonfry returning Arom some expedition to Fort L----. Again sent out that 16ng Border yell, and I knew by the quicker Lreathing of the fifo 'and the rapid pulsing of the drum that the soldiers had broken into the doubic-quick in heed of my cry. . A parting shot fired at random, and the two desperadoes "tirifed, Dut with one of them, at least, Ithiad not done with, I call. ed my horse with a peculiar whistle ; I re- peated and repeated it, aud then I heard him gain crashing in purspit, while his rides sheuted and lashed hin, and tried 'to pall him round the ofitr way. "Tor, a brief time. the desperado wrestled with tho animal, lashed. goaded and roared at her, but my incessant, jerky whigtle-call kept her mind of * | and head toward me * He only gave up the fruitless striggel and" leaped from her back when a squad of infantry dashed over a hill lowy swell of prairieand rused. down toward us at that seal measured. pace which is so effective in contrast with 4 disorderly gait, «It's Wolf, 'boys,' I exclaimed, as they came up with me-for' I knew his voice, I had no kneed to tell them that there wag rice set npol head, as ithad been arly proved t that oh had stirred up the shvages to comniit more than onc massacre of the séttlers ; and a dozen of them, utter- ing a yell of futy, started in pursuit', while the others, noticing my swaying about uj the animal which T rode began to think that I *had found something serious in my race for life. In fact the plain was rising and falling and 'shuffling about so that it took a great amount of nerve and equipese to sit as 1 ought. They got me into Fort Laramie, however with "fily uncle's promis- sory notes all safe in my, breast pocket; while my boot. full of blood, and, the galling flesh wound in my. shoulder, accounted for the odd ImaeveHngs of the plain while I was on horseback. After a brief but Sorpernts conflict, Bill 'Wolf was brough in, and passed over to the proper officers "to Iiave. and to hold" until there should be meted out to him the meas ure he had given to others. . ---- A --------e--. .

Lm ntdiniaip hie: the last days': meeting of the Maryland ey Club, at Pimlico this spring, an oo Artist, ist, George West and two or three' 'other broken' dow 1 1 ers were put up at auction by. their er, Mr. ji h hha 8 is g thé case, However, no one W: to | then, and with the exception'of Jim Crow, | none were gold, , They were taken the stable, and on the following day i Wi wned: 1 3 common hommes, not remain fff part of tlie Berd' with a eta at tera. Every, morning and evening a racer's training he is walked slowly "n a cirele for an hour or so. ese i circles can Le found near the stables at every race track, and they, are usually about one Lundred feet in diameter. - On' the first morning after old George West was turned out of the stable at Captain Power's farm he waited around the stable doors for some time and neighed as ifimpatient. The old horse * spent the entire first day walking up and down in front of the stables. On the follow- ing day he was turned out again, and after walking around the stable for some time, he. walked off to a distant cornor of the field, where he proceeded to walk around ina cir cle of fifty or sixty yards, . The walk was kept up for an hour as steady as he had ever, done it in his palmiest training days. After exercising about an hour the old horse left his walking ground and capered around the ficld as if delighted. In the evening it was noticed that shortly before sundown he threw up his head and after ncighing once or twice, galloped around the field seven or eight timey, Ie then suddenly stopped and went to the small citcle used by him in the morning, and walked around it for an hour, At the expiration of that time be went tothe stable. The exereises of walking and gal. loping have been repeated regularly ever since, and Capt. Powers stated that the time at whichGeorge West begins exercising each day does not vary over half an hour. He kept in the stable two days without getting out, but when turned oat en the third day he at once began to walk and keep it up as usual, The other horses in the field bave followed his example, and now every morn. ing and evening seven common horses may be seen moving regularly round the small circle, like a string of race horses, headed by George West. The sight is a novel one, and hundreds of people have visited the farm during the past weck to witness it. Beyond the walking George West does not mix with the common herd at all and takes his gallop entirely alone. George West is now over sixteen years old, but there is probably no steeple chaser now living in this country that in his fourth and fifthy ears won us many gallant races as hehas done, Sound and Advice. Keep clear of the man who does not value his own character, Nobody is more like an honest man than a thorough rogue. In any business aever wade into water | where you cannot see the hottom. Don't choose your friend by his looks, handsome shoes often pinch the feet. Put no dependence on the label of a bag and count money after your own kind. Don't go to law unless you have nothing to lose; lawyers' houses are built cn fools heads. Don't believe the man that talks the most, for mewing cats are seldom good mothers, See the sack open before you bny what is in it, for he who trades in the dark asks to be cheated. Do not be fond of compliments, remember "thank you pussy and thank you pussy" killed the By no means put 3 yoarself in another per~ son's power, Ifyou ptit your thumb be- tween two grinders they apt to bite Drink nothing without seeing it, sign nothing without reading it, and 'make sure that it means no more than it says, a re Love- Making among Arab Con- verts.
