He felt, the young man said, that he was born to he a reporter, like Horace Greeley and Mr. Bennett, lie knew he bad it in him, nnd all ho wanted was the field, and hn would make his own opportunities, He worked on the Hawk-Eye one day, and we do not know what has became of him atlerThat, but wc are sorry he in gone. There was so much life and sunlight about the oflice during his brief stxy. He hadn't been on the' street an hour before he came rustl ing back into the office, radiant with enthusiasm and a whole hat fu'l of 'fights in his note book. Then he dashed out and went around the block, and came tearing up the back stairs like a house a-fire with a first class, gnili-edged, lavender scented scandal case. He started oil to din ner, but came dashing back to write up n runaway, an apoplectic fit, a vma’l robery, and astreei-car coiision he had encountered on the way. We never saw sueh a man to gather up news. He could hardly find time to eat his meals, on account of the rush of items. And when he got to wri ting them up in the evening, he had to lock the door to keep new ones from rn.-hing in on him, We said: “The offiicc has got a treasure. That man is north a million dollars a week.” And the rest of thj boys stood around with their nleajri-f notebooks, complaining that the town was awful dry, and fairly bursting with envy. We Imd to inn :i supplement to get all the young tVllow’a city news in. 'Jiioni'xt morning the chief hid a Tory inpressive interview with the !<■• reporter. Tliu liii-iiioss nffijo wa- filled with a miscellaneous crowd •and ci izeiis, and Iwo or three poliee noii, and a f w ladies. The boys loaned tip against the door of (he p ivale office to hear how much sala ry the new man was going to get, and if he would accept an interest in the paper. They beard llie chief sa't “And this long item about Jerome C. Plastonbnrg. That is a paid no lice, as you were told; it is worth $65, and yon have spelled hi* name— the viial part of the notice—wrong every time. Once you have called him James L. Louglierty, once Ja bez O l’hi laiity, and in all oilier places Jacob D. Platlu rsbag. What on earth possessed you to make such absurd and injurious blunders as that ? “Well good land !” exclaimed the young man, “how was I to know how he spelled his name ? He’s a stranger to me. Besides, I did my best to get it right. I looked through Zell’s Encyclopaedia and in Webster’s Dictionary, and couldn’t find any such name anywhere. How is any man going to get along with out mistakes if tho office library hasn’t got a reliable book of refer ence in it ?” Tliere wat a pause, and then the chief resumed; “And here is this item here about Rev. Mr. Throopledyke, whoso mar riage to Miss Minerva Posonby you notice very neatly, and then append the outrageous statement that the reverend gentleman has a wife and nine children in Indiana, and that it is thought he has one or two more somewhere in Wisconsin. Why—” “Well that’s so,’’ broke in the new man; “I tell you he has; a man on the train told tnc so down at Union depot yesterday. I got that all straight- That’s true as gospel.” “Who was the man?’’ “I don’t know; he was a stranger to me, and it looked too fresh to ask his name.’’ “How did ho know Mr. Throop ledyke?’* “He didn’t know him; lie just told me about a preacher he knew that had a wife and nine children in Indi’ ana, and I askedhim to/1 escribe him* and Ins discretion hit old Throople dyke to aT, O, it’s hint, 1 kno w. “Then,’’ continued the chief, after a very nainful pause, during which the boys held their breath, “here i* an item stating that Christopher R Roflin, a Bogus Hollow sneak thief, knocked a child down near the rail road crossing and stole a tin bucket, len cents, and a tntlk ticket from her. This is atrocios. It is terrible.’ “Why,’, asked the new msn, “was not that Rvlliu?” HAMILTON HARRIS CO., GA„ WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1876. “No,” said the chief, with some a.periiy, "Mr. Koflin i* President of the Young Men's Christian Associa lion, and a citizen of iho highest re pnte. Now w here did you get that item 7” “Well, the i’em is all right, but I wasn’t rure of the I told a haokuian about it, and asked him it he knew who the first man wss, and he said ho guessed it must be old Ilofi in, and Ifound the full name in the Directory.” The boys could hear the chief sigh clear through the door. “Then," continued, “what made say that old Mrs. Malavers committed suicide while in state of despon dency, brought on by by excessive use of intoxicating liquor?'’ “Well, didn’t site ?” “Didn't she? She is alive and down in the counting room now and is ore<i dent of the woman’s Temperance League.,, ’’Well, well, well,” sai.l the new man, in a tone of nmnz-m<-nt. “I must have got lhat mixed up with some Other i eni.” “And then look h re,’’ continued the chief, “yon take occasion to say, in ail entirely uncalled-for manner, that lion. George J, Barnwell owes grocery bill of 37 15 at Sugcrby’s, that has been running nearly two years, and that he blows his nose with his fingers, and picks his teeth with his folk, and only changes his socks once a week. Now ” “Well, by George,” shouted the new man. “that’s the truth. Now I’m willing to own no when I’m wrong, bu’, by gum, you can’t cor ner me on that item. That’s the solemn truth, and I got it all straight. A girl tl.-.t work and in his family four years told me all about it, and 1 could have put in lots more, ever so much worse than that, if I’d had room, lie ” “Do you know ,” said tho chief’ “ that lion George J. Larnwcll owns more of this town than he can see, and is a b ink director and president of heaven knows how rnaney business associations, a pillow of the church, and a prop of society? Don’t you know that ain’t!” expected to publish evry frit of gossip you hear about people?” “Ain’t!” echoed the young men, “what’s the paper for then? What of it anyhow? Is old Barnwell mad about it? Did anybody tell him ot it?” The chief made no reply, and the boys scattered to their work. A cis ual watch w as kept upon the door of the private office, and late in the after noon it opened, and the chief came out. lie was alone. T iere was a dyspeptic look about bis eyes, like a man who had eaton too much, and nobody ever saw the new reporter or heard anything of him again. But we often miss him, and w hen the town is quiet and the afternoons are long, and there are no election news to stir the fever of our blood, we wish that he would come back and shake up tho town once more. HOW HE CELEBRATED. BY KIZARRB. “Tom, dear,” said pretty Mrs. Hicks to her husband, as she turned her plump, voluptuous little form out of bed, and commenced putting on her striped stocking, “Iv’e asked mamma and a few friends to come over and spend their Fourth of July evening with us, so you’d better buy some fireworks, and leave me some money to buy refreshments with.’’ Pooh ! nonsense love,’’, husband transferring her bustle and back hair from in front of the look ing glass to a vacant chair. •‘No, there’s no ‘pooh, nonsense," about it, I’ll order the ice cream and don’t you get any of those horrid fireworks that make such an awful noise,” she coaxed, looking in the glass at some musquitoe bites oa her white round shoulders. “1 don’t see what in the name of Christopher Columbus and all the saints in the calendar, you want to hold a circus here tor. You women get more foolish notions into your head*, than there’s flies around an empty sugar barrel,” bo replied, stopping bis shaving a moment, to admire her pretty white shoulders. “And you wise headed men always commence by scolding and end by thinking the same as we do; now don’t you?” she asked roguishly. “1 suppose—-hang it all ! I wish to the Lord you wouldn’t talk to me when I am shaving !" he cried, ex amining his ear in the glass, from which he had carved a respectable slice. The converaajion dropped, and during the day Hicks purchased and sent home as a peace offering a large box of fireworks, and the angel twins, peace and happiness, found themselves once more on the front stoop of that household, The evening of the Fuurth arrived, and so did tho visitor% After tea the party adjourned to Iho garden, where they sented themselves in a gioup to witness the pyrotechnic display and fight mosquitoes, and Hicks having provided himself with a box of matches, lit a cigar, rolled up his sleeves, and picking out n rocket touched the fußo -off with his cigar. “Heavens Ahd earth ! do be cJf?- ful!” screamed his wife, as the rocket instead of traveling heavenward, whizzed off in the direction of the visitors, missing his mother-in-law’s head by a close inch. “I —I know he aimed at mo on purpose, be-hecause I—l wanted him to let me patch his pants, so—so as he could wear them on wet days,” sobbed lhat lady, settling her cap and glaring viciously at the exhibi tion. Hicks bit his lips to keep] from ■ wearing, brought her some icc wa ter, begged her pardon, and retnrn. ihg to his place in the centre of the grass plat, look another rocket from the box and touched it off. '1 his one did not prove a Centen nial success. Hicks, in his anxiety to prevent a repetition of the last unfortunate error, pointed it the other way, and it soared into the house through an open second story window, leaving a trail of firu behind it like a comet. , "You’ve set tho house on fire 1’ exclaimed his wife growing pale. This caused a break in the pro gramma, owing to Hicks having to visit the second story with n bucket of water and some profanity. On his return he selected a pin-wheel from the box, and fastening upon th fence, stepped forward, and after some difficulty In finding the place to light it, he touched it off, but it seemed to work in an eccentric nnd puzzing manner— instead of revolv ing and throwing out a fiery shower, it spluttered away like a wet candle, then flopped half way over and kick ed some burning coals into a young gentleman’s ear, who was coming forward to artist Hicks, and who immediately left in search of a doc tor and a drug store, and finally l.en every one supposed the cursed thing was out and dead, it exploded with a report like that of a twenty inch cannon, blowing all the vines and plants down within twenty yards of it. Good gjacions, Tom, what queer fireworks?’ said his wife, brushing a spark offher dress. “I can’t help it, love; I didn’t maKothem,” he replied, fixing an other one lip and lighting. “Tnore what’s the matter with that?” he asked triumphantly, as it spun around, whirling fire in evory di rection. On its fifth revolution, however, it slacked up and seemed desirous of changing its course. Hicks stepped promptly forward to assist it, but changed his mind on its twisting it self inside out, burning bis eyebrows and mustache off, and dropping some sparks down the back of his neck. “Whoop ! Lordy!’’ he yelled, as ho darted in the house, flung his coat on the range, his veal in o a corner and was pulling his shirt over his head without unbuttoning it, when his wife came running iu to see w’hat ailed turn. “Dear mo, Tom, what’s the mat ter ?” she asked, as she saw*him prance around the floor, swearing and tugging at his shirt. “Matter enough! Help me off with this d—d shirt ! inv back’s burut to a cinder!” he muttered, emerging from the shirt, very red iu the face. Mrs. 11. examined hit* injuries, soothed him, and returned to her guests in the garden, where half an hour later she was joined by Hicks in a profuse sperpiration and a clean shirt. “Please let off some of those Ro man candle*. Tom,’’ coaxed bis pret ty wife. Hicks felt as if he had some em phatic rem irki be would prefer to let off, but he bottloJ *.!jctn and corn plied. Lifting a Roman andlo from the box, bu lit tho steih and firod a vt-lTcy of red, white and blue fire balls, through an open door into his next door neighbor’s hal way. “Confound yon lor a thick skulled old idiot, can't you seo where you’re ■hooting that fire ?’’ shouted the owner of the house, rushing out in a violent passion. “Bother yourpld house!"screamed- Hioke, mad as a hornet himself. “Turn your enssed fireworks the other way jor I’ll climb over the fenco nnd kick your devilMh head off !’* yelled hie neighbor hunting around for a brick to throw at Jhiui. liioke reversed the candle and the next balk’(a red on<)"plumped his mother-in-law, square between the eyes, his wife caught iho while one on her chin, And the blue ball wound up the party by lodgiug in a young lady’s back hair. “D—n the thing, Jsnyhow!” he •hrieked, throwing it into the fire work b x, and in the next moment that gaiden was full of blazing pin wheel , feminine shrieks, shooting rockets, m.sonline oaths, trirngleg, taper ankles, Roman cardies, striped stockings, fiery serp-nts, patriotic garters, and five minutes later, Hicks was up in his room, dresseeb like Adam before the fig leaf innovation, trying to count how many burns there were to the sqnare Foot, while Mrs, 11. in an undressed uniform, was groaning and rubbing cold cream over herself in the next room, and trying 4o recollect all the cir cumstances in the unfortunate affair. [ Yankee Pintle. UNDER THE SCAFFOLD. lIT T. W. HANBHKW. Where am I? A prison ! Oh, I remember. Yon are a reporter, cli ? and you want my confession ero the cruel rope wrings the breath from my body ? I killed him. Wo were brother* : yet we were rivals. Both loved the one girl, both haled with an intensity of hatred brothers alone can feel. He was young and handsome ; 1 ugly and cripple. At an early age I saw awret Alice Ray wiTYi all the passion of my young heart. W* grew up together, loving purely, de votedly. It was a golden September after noon. Softly, Lily our boat lay floating amid the pure white pond lillies, drifting like a dream on the bosom of the silver lake- I sat in the bow, she—Alice, in her snowy dreas, her.golden hair streaming over her shoulders —sat in tho stern, her soft, white hand* snapping the lily stems, and twining the creamy blos soms in the hands of her sunny hair. Very beautiful she looked, with the datk green leaves and snowy flowers clustering mid her locks, and showing of! to perfection her pearly skin. Oh, happy days of youth,— Gono, gone t flow long I lay back in the boat, looking into tho azure depths of hor dreamy eyes, I know not ; it might have been an hour—more. Suddenly a low plashing broke upon our ears ; oars dipping in the water. Presently a boat turned the curve, hugging the bank, and shot into view. There was but one oc cupant, a yoitng and handsome man. Bending to his otrs and row ing with easy grace, he eoon pulled alongside of us. Rising from bis seat he smiled upon me and, said : “Do you not know me, Mort ? I am Horace, your brother.” Yes it was he. For years—since wc were children —he had been at school in Paris. I knew he was ex pected home, yet was not aware of his arrival. Rising in tbe boat 1 introduced him to Ahce. Curse* on that day ! I marked the quick flush upon her cheek, the gleam ia her eye. From that hour he was her constant com panion, ever by her side. Yes, I was jealous, madly—coldly jealous. I hated myself—Alice : and, more than all, I hated Horace for coining between ua with his girlish face and early hair. Oh, how I prayed to flm { away my crotches and stand upright m he 1 Cur*# him, curse him! You wonder that brother esn curse the memory of brother? Ido not, Man! you have yet to feel the anguish of slights from tbe being for whose it: ar eal.e you would risk anything. You have yet to feel tho rose yon pluok withering in your hand ; you have yet to sec the sunlight hidden from you forever, to hear only harsh ness in the skylark’s note ; to see no color upon the fl-iwer you know is beautiful. Hate ! I ldatho his mem ory. Like a cloud be hid the sun of love from ne>, and gloried in it. Oh, oan I ever forget tho anguish of those days ? They are stamped up on my brain in letters of fire. Well thia went on for throe months, and, unable to stand it longer, I deterra ined to spesk with him upon the suhjec t. It was s cold night in Pocember* Ho had gone with Alioe to a skating parly upon fhe lake. Donning ray great coal and hobbling forth into the blinding storm, I limped to the corner of the luno. w here old Allan’s mill stood, and entering tho gloomy building, I wailed tho approach of Horace. As I stepped into the old rookery there was a scampering of rats’ feet, and then silence. Ten o’clock, and yet he name not. Elevep, twelve ; a figure appeared at 'the fool of the lane, and whietled Softly. Horace strode np the path way, I stepped from the ehedow of the building and confronted him. lie started On beholding me and strove to pass. VWhere have you been ?” I asked abruptly. ,*1 don’t know as it concerns you," he replied. “You linve boen with Alice." “And If I havu ?’’ “Cin!” I exclaimed, The hot blood mounted to his check in an instant. , “0!i, if you.were not lame." he said with gleaming iyes. “Well, strike my body—you have shattered my heart." “Your heart?" “He asked. “How?” “Alice!” I murmured. . He laughed suornlmlv “Wl a is sbo to yon?” lie asked, “Everjibing!” I replied, in choking scents. “Before you came w ilh your bahf fees she wa* mine—mine truly. You think to win her heart, eh," I continued savagely. “Bat you shall not leave this place nntil you have •worn to forget her." Again that scornful laugh “Fool!’’ he said in a sneering tone* “You will not,leave her,” I asked. “No," the answer,was a decided one; I felt he would not. “But she is mine,’’ I returned. “Yours. Do you imagine for an instant that lovely girl would throw herself away upon you—a cripple." I never can tell how it was ; but the c u ch was lifted high in the air, and descended upon his head with a dull, heavy tlutd,) burying the iron handle in his brain. Throwing up both hands, my brother sank lifeless at my feet. Sinking on my knees beside tho corpse, I lifted the poor, crushed head, and called his name softly. He was quite dead. Then it w as tho horror of my situation flash ed upon me, and, with a scream of terror, dashed madly from the spot. I did not run far, Overpowered by the shock, 1 sank senseless upon the frozen earth. They found both of us—the murderer and Lite murdered —lying hut a few yards apart, lie was buried in hallowo ground, while I--I the wronged one—stand under the scaffold, with the curse of Cain upon my brow. What became of Alice. She is in a madhouse, for the poor fool loved him. See, here they are, the sheriff and the afficers with the rope, the rope of death in their hands. That’s it. Ah, how terrible tbe cord feels about my neck, Take it sway—away ! Good-bye. God bless you, sir. Tell my fattier I am not bad at heart. Thank God, my mother is dead, long, long years. There, give me my ertileh to hoble to the scaffold. Yes, the very one I struck him with. Ses %i-re. the dark red stain on the iron. Ha! Ita ! ha! bis blood. Farewell. In half an hour it will be over, and God shall judge who in the guilty, fyo who lies calmly slot-ping in tin old ohu eh yard or lie who stands under the scaffold. —mi 9 If women vero as particular about ohoosing a virtuous husband as inen are In selecting a virtuous wife, n moral reformation w ould soon begin, which would he something more than froth and foam.
