KSat Luvengood’s Dream.
AX!) WHAT lIK SAW TUKRE.
orful dry t'other day, George,
' ':i afcdin' a lot of green whiskey, I jist
Hkd in a skin full ~vc hit stn.it along.
[Bfost mouthful I swallard I heart)
in my heels. I was dry an’ empty
golly—so dry that arter hit *ris
up in my paunch, hit soaked
pfcßph and stod all oyer my belly in
Hxnakin’hit look like a big reticule
with beads, but I swelled tight
while, an’ then I filled up purty

a spoon-handle down my froat,
bHpt off steam, and sot it te rovin’
S§|B. Hit won’t long afore I foun’ my-

an’ I tell heap down hill, so 1

I were in hell, an' had been

because hit dident

fHKHpdle as long as a harpoon, and

to whar I sot in the boat, a keepin

B an’ he whispered in my ear, ‘Whars
Alhug?’ Sez I don’t know, why?
r nothin’, only I wanted to see,
; knowed the most ove our trades,
' l-S or me.’ Then he whispered (that
Htul off eye ove of hisin still sot on
1 H devil), ‘say, does you know whar his
keeps his spoons ?’ Ses I, does
' sec that chain hangin over the

at tother aind ove hit. He jist went
over the starn head fust, an’ coon’d hit
down the chain, outen sight onder the
brimstone. Arter bein gone a spell, he
come back lookin’ disapinted like, but
his gineral looks wer powerfully im
proved, by his bath in melted brimstone.
I swow he looked a heap more like a
human. Sez he, ‘ gone, pot an’ all.’ I
opened my eyes; ses he, ‘ Haint Forney
got ’em ?’ Sez I, maybe so—he’s been
fumblin’ roun’ the starn a good while.
Dam if he dident sarch every pocket
Forney had, an! the ole cuss never cotch
him at hit, an’ he got (he spoons!
While this wer gwine on, old Thad
wer a tryin to claim kin wif the deril, a
comparin his foot along wif ole Nick’s.
I think the pint wer to git an office, for
I he&rn the devil keep sayin’ ‘no, no, I
be dam if I do, we has order here now.’
An* all the time old Wade were a pes
terin his majesty for a free ticket on his
doggery. I seed that the devil wer a
giltin monstrous oneasy. Wendell
Phillips kept a watchin fust the side that
went down onder the climbers, an’ then
the side what come up ont ove the lake.
He jist hopped over board, an’ swum
over thar an’ tryin his durndest to turn
hit tother way, he’d grab the slopin side
ove the cleats, an’ hold on as long as he
could,an’ then slosh back agin among the
melted dogirons an’ brimstone. I reckon
he must a made fifty trials afore he quit
an’ swum back to the boat, an’ then he
sot in the most yearnest manner, to per
suadin the devil to take off the cleats,
an’ nail’em on again upside down, so as
to run hell backwards, an' ove course
the outside world with hit, without givin
a single reason why hit help the matter.
This made the devil bile over. He sed,
‘not a dam one ove ’em should stay thar
another hour. That they’d raise a
rebellion sure an’destroy the institution,
an’ then what would the world do, par
ticularly New England!'
I tell-you he jist rared ; sez he, ‘ I’ll
clear my dominions ot you durn’d quick,’
an’ he ranged a big bom morter, what
were in the boat, point blank at the
hatch hole, ’an he loaded in old Wade,
feet fust, and made Forney tetch hit off.
By golly 1 he went whizzen’ throu the
hole, and hit rained whiskey on the lake
ontil hit barnt blue. Next he grabbed
old Thad; sez he, tremblin, please, yer
majesty, load her in wif me,’ a pinting
to a she nigger strung on the chain ; sez
the deril ‘ no sir, I think we can manage
her arter you is gone, and besides, she
looks like she needed a little rest.’ Bo
lang! an’ I jist cotch a glimpse ove
Thad’s hooked foot scraping a splinter
off the hatch combin. Nex he yoked
Sumner, an’ he begged to be loaded
head fust, as he sed he’d always traveled
sturn fust throu life, as he wanted to
finish his journey the same way, on ac
count of his record.
So, sturn fust he come outen the
mortar, sturn fust he went outen the
hatch hole, and I reeon sturn fust he
busted agin somefin away yonder on
the outside. Butler’s, surname the
Beast, turn come nex. While the
devil wer a loadin him in, I observed
him buisy a buttonin up his pockits.
When the mortar fired I wer watchin
the hatch dost; I dident like the idear
ove his leavin ; but dam if he went
thar, he follered the line ove his cock
eye, and busted into a million pieces
agin the wall. Spoons and breast
pine tell a foot deep all over the lake,
and I hearn the wimmen all cheer.
The devil then licked hi3 lips, an went
for Wendill, but he jist loped over
board and dove, and tu save his life the
devil couldn’t find ’im. He’ll raise
trouble thar yet, see es he don’t.
Nex he grabbed Forney, his steers
man, an sez he, ‘you don’t steer tu suit
me,’ an he commenced a loadin him in,
an’ don’t yo\i believe, jist as the cuss’s
head were a going out ove sight, he
whispered in the devil’s year, that I were
Jamison, the actor. The devil remarked,
‘l’ve got nuffin agin Jamison, you is the
one,’ mad at me by golly, jistbekaze he
seed the beast out smarted him in the
spoon business. I hearn suffin like
quack I quack 1 down in the bowils ove
the mortar, an’ then hit went off, and so
did the duck. Thar’l be peace in hell
fur a while, if the devil kin only ketch
Wiendil an’ reconstruct the durn’d ras
kil. Old Smutty reached for me the
las’ one, an put me down his gun. I
sot into beggin hard.
Sez he, ‘you mus’ go, the prosperity of
my kingdom demands that nuffin havin
the smell ove radical onto hits close kin
stay yere. I seed yonwhisperin wif the
Beast, an I’d shoot out ole Robespiere
bisself, if I wer tu ketch him at sich an
ornary trick, an’ he’s been helpin roll
hell roun’ in a orderly way ever since
the French Revolution.’ By golly I I
jist limbered ali over, the gun roared
an’ I wakened. No what do you think
was the matter wif me? Why, old Bob
Hays were a tryin his durndest to splin
ter a four foot clap borrd over my sturn,
said he wanted me to git outen his pas
ter, afore he shut the gate for the night.
I wer a sweatin orful, George, perfectly
orful.
I sorter wished I had dreamed on a
little longer. I’d a liked powerful well
to a foun’ out what had decome ove ole
Thad arter he wer shot out ove hell.
Hit’l sorter injur his etandin, won’t hit,
as he roams though nothing forever? j
beleive if I’d been him, I’d rather staid
thar wif my she nigger. Been hard on
her though, poor devil, an’ a little too
good for him. Ain’t I boss on skeery
dreams.
