In the Winter of 1874, a gentleman and his daughter, a young lady, while traveling through Canada; ar rived about nightfall at an old fash ioned tavern. The gentleman con cluded to stop there instead of going on to the village of S 1 which was ten miles distant, and which they had thought to reach. % he daughter, Carrie expresseaner willingness, as the tavern presented a comfortable appearance, and they alighted, when it was plainly to be seen that the gentleman was <juite lame, so much so that he was obliged to use a cane. The landlord came out, and calling a boy to take the horse and sleigh to the barn, he ushered Mr. Spencer and his daughter into a pleasant sitting room where the bright fire was burn ing on the hearth, which proved very acceptable to our travelers , who had been in the sleigh since morn ing. ‘Yuro room will be ready by sup per time, sir,’ said the landlord as he left the room and went into the bar room. Supper was shortly announced, and after refreshing themselves, Mr. Spen cer and Carrie returned to the cozy sitting room, where they talked and chatted until halt past eight. They Were then shown to their room, which was on the second story, in a wing somewhat distant from the main portion. The room was very long, with a high ceiling. On one side was a wins dow, and qu the other a door. Just above the door was a bust of King George 111. The room was very plainly furnish ed, containing two beds, a washstand and a tew chairs. Carrie took in the whole room at a glance, and it must be confessed, had there not been a cheerful fire burning, she would have felt nervous about sleeping there. As it was the warm glow lit up the room into comparative cheerfulness. While she and her father sat by the fire, her eyes wandered to the bust above the door, when she noticed that the eye balls had been knocked out leaving two empty spaces. ‘Well, Carrie,’ said Mr Spencer, presently* ‘I think you had better lock the dooi. lam going to count out my money. After Carrie had done so, he drew out a money belt, heavy with bills, and proceeded to count them. While doing so, Carrie’s eyes ins voluntarily wandered again to the bust, when, to her horror and astons ishment, in place of the empty spaces were two glittering eyes, greedily watching every movement of her fas ther. The young girl could scarcely re press a scream; but, controlling her self, she looked towards the fire, while her father went on counting a large roll of bills. ‘I must have been mistaken,’ thought the fair girl. What could make me have such a strange fancy, though?’ she continued, glancing again at the bust. Tho eyes were still there—two burning, savage eyes, that brighten ed as Mr. Spencer went on counting. ‘Good heavens!’ thought Carrie, ‘what shall we do! We are evidently in a den of thieves, and will get mur dured for my poor father’s money. How to communicate their danger to her father without those terrible eyes noticing it, Carrie could not think. Suddenly a bright idea came to her. ‘Father.’ she said, aloud, ‘let me take a card and pencil. I wish to make a memorandum of some items I wish to purchase iu the villiage.’ Her father handed them to her, and after stowing away his belt.— Carrie wrote, tremblingly, in a fine hand— ‘Father, do not be frightened; we are in a trap. Go in the opposite cornel of the room, where your face will be in the dark, and look at the bust .above the door. In it you will 3ee .two glittering eyes that have watched you count your man ey.’ Read it, she said, aloud, handing the card to her father. I want you to see if you thiuk T am too extrava gant. Iler father betrayed no emotion while he read, but said— You are pretty extravagant, Car rie, I suppose you think your lather was made of money; and he arose and went to the washstand,, which was in a dark corner. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 19, 1877. Once there he glanced toward the bust, and that glance confirmed his daughter’s extraordinary statement. When he came back to his seat, Carrie saw that the eyes were gone. Then, leaning towards her father, she said in a low tone— ‘You see it is as I said. I have thought of a plan, however by which we both can escape. You would be perfectly helpless In an affray of any kind on account of your lame leg, so so I must try to save us both. Then followed a whispered consul tation, during which Canie kept her eyes fixed on the bust; but the glitters ing orbs had not come back. As she concluded, Carrie went to the window, threw’ it up, and looked out. Beckoning to her father, who came, she said, or rather whisper ed— You see this shed father? Well, they will probably come up on it and get in through the window. I do not think they will make the attack before twelve, so I will get out of this win dow, jump from the shed, go to the barn and take our horse, and go to S ~—for help. Flinging a wrap oyer her slight figure; she embraced her father ten-* derly, and bidding him not worry over her, she jumped lightly out on the shed and disappeared. Mr. Spencer watched her for awhile, then closing the window, took ont a watch, saw that it was nine ocleck, and proceeded to work. He first covered up the fire, blew out the light, and rolled up a blanket, with which he made a dummy. This he placed in the bed which his daugh ter was to occupy. Then he sat down and waited—oh> how anxiously. Ten, filteen, tw r enty minutes went by, and no sound came from the vi cinity of the barn. Taking off his boots, he crept noise lessly to the window and peered out and he could see nothing. Then creeping to the washstand he laid i.is money-belt in the drawer and closed it. He then threw himself on the bed and once more waited. After an hour had apparently gone by, Mr. Spencer threw off his coat and vest, tumbled up the bed, hob bled to the door, unlocked it, and stepped out into the hall. This was all in accordance to Carrie’s plan. Landlord ! Landlord ! he shouted. He then noiselessly went back into the loom and threw up the window, all the time shouting for the land lord. That worthy came flying up the stairs, and, late as it was, he was still dressed. Oh, Landlord! gasped Mr. Spencer rushing towards him, I have been rob bed ! my money is gone ! Come ! echoed the landlord iu dis may* Who could have stolen it! groan ed Nlr. Spencer. I had five thousand dollars in a belt, and its gone—sto len! The landlord lit the candle and looked around, chagrin depicted on every feature. Why don’t you wake your daugh ter sir? he questioned. Mr Spencer then hurried to hei bed* Carrie, Carrie! he called, but no answer came; and the landlord draw ing near with the light, saw the dum my and cried— Why, man, the girl isn’t there! What! gasped Mr. Spencer. Oh, I see it all ! The wicked girl has robbed me while I slept, and run off to meet her lover, from whom I was taking her. He ran to the window, folio wed by the landlord. Yes, yes, here are footprints in the snow on the shed ! cried the landlord, while Mr. Spencer groaned aloud.— How long do you think she has been gone sir? asked the landlord. For an hour or more, the deceitful jade ! replied Mr. Spencer. Then there’s no use looking for her, sir replied the landlord. Oil, but I must! cried Mr. Spen cer, as he began to descend the stair way followed by the landlord, who had believed every word Mr. Spencer said. They proceeded to the barn, follow ed by the landlord's confederates. They found the horse gone, <uid her mode of flight was easily explain ed. You may as well give up, sir, said the landlord, consolingly. I suppose I may, groaned Mr. Spencer, and they returned to the house. As he left the barn he beard Hie landlord whisper to oneof his conted erates — ‘The Job’s up, Jim, we’d better let the old man alone.’ • Once more entering the room, Mr. Spencer threw himself on the bed, and awaited the return of his brave daughter. ‘God bless and bring her back in safety,’ he murmured. Meanwhile all grew still, and the hours rolled by. The fire had been raked up and crackled merrily. The eyes were not looking from the bust; they had evi dently disappeared tor the rest of the night. At last, after what seemed an age to the anxious watcher, he heard a loud knock on the front entrance, and five minutes at*erwards he heard the landlord stumble to the door. Ther followed a contused jumble of curs es and struggles, then a rush of ma uy feet up the long hall and old stair way. The next minute the door was thrown open and his daughter rushed in, followed by the officers, who had dragged in the landlord and his con federates. Oh, father! she cried, you are sate, safe ! and throwing her anus around his neck the brave girl burst into hap py tears. The Sheriff and his posse of meu field the landlord and his confeds erates in a vice-like grasp, while Car rie related the adventures of her per ilous ride. After I left the barn I led Tommy to a fence, all unsaddled, sprang on him, wound my arms tightly around his neck, and whispered, go Tommy, and away we went like the wind. Up and down, over the frozen road we went! My arm 9 felt like ice. 1 thought I should certainly freeze, and alter what seemed au age of cold and pain, and misery, we dashed iuto the main street of S . As we came up in front of the tavern the stage drove up, and the inmates sprang out and rushed to my assistance. I must have been almost insensible, tor I had to be carried iu by the landlord. 1 was given warm drinks until I was fully recovered, and was able to relate my story. I told them my suspicions and tears, and this gentleman—here Carrie paused, and turning to a fine looking man near her, said, Mr. James, belief iu what I told, and his energy aud spirit in arousing the Sheriff and his men, has been the main cause in bringing assistance. Mr. Spencer grasped the young man’s hand, and thanked him. Your plan succeeded admirably, Carrie, he said, and advancing to the washstand, he took out the money belt, saying, my money is all right as you see. The landlord quivered with rage as he saw how completely he had been defeated. As the men began to search the room, he protested his innocence, de clared they had no right to hold him or his meu prisoners, or to search his house. Breaking open 'the door, above which was the bust, the men rushed in* The room was empty, save tor a long ladder, which reached a shelf above the door. A hole above the shelf disclosed the bust to be broken in half, so that a man could easily climb up the ladder, get on the shelf, thrust his head in the bust, which was large enough for an ordinary-sized man’s head, and see all that was "oin<* f* on in the adjoining room. This certainly looked suspicious, but absolute proof was yet wanting. On returning to the room occupied by Mr. Spencer, they again searched every nook and coiner. Suddenly, Carrie and Mr. James, who had been standing by the fire'- place, gave a loud cry, for on close examination they had,found spots of blood on the bricks which formed the hearth. They began to pull up the bricks, which proved loose, when Carrie, feel ing faint, gave w’ay to the Sheriff and his men, who soon had them all pull ed up, when a cavity was disclosed, containing the murdered body of a gentlemau whom Mr. James and the Sheriff remembered to have stopped at S three days before. The evidence was conclusive. The landlord and-his confederates were well guarded through the night and the next day they were lodged in jail, where in due time they were sen* tenced and suffered the extreme pen* alty of the.law. -• Time is inonov and many people pay their debts with it. Correspondence with a Dead Man. The Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise says that some weeks ago a scapegrace in that city, who had left bis parental roof in New York under a cloud in 1865, concluded to “put up a job on the tld gentleman, and make a raise.” He accordingly telegraphed to his father iu New York: “Mr. : Your son Walter was killed in the Con. Virginia this morn ing by a falling cage. What shall we do with the remains. “M. L. Barker.” Almost immediately a telegraphic order came for $l5O and the laconic reply: “Bury them.” The fictitious M. L Barker seized the $l5O and went on a royal spree, and a few weeks afterward he wrote to his father over his real name as follows: Dear Father: I have just learned that an infamous scoundrel named Barker sent you a fictitious account of my deathjand swindled you out of $l5O lie also borrowed SBS from me and left the country. I write to inform you that lain yet alive, and long to see the paternal roof again. lam in somewhat reduced circumstances, the accumulation of the last five years having been lost—a disastrous stock speculation—aud if you would spare me S2OO I will ever be thankful for your favor. Give ray love to all. Your affectionate son, Walter. A few days lat«r the young man received the following; My Dear Sou; I have buried you once, and there’s an end of it. I de cline having any more transactions with a corpse. Yours in the flesh, Father. ‘Cutting a Dido.’— This is a phrase older than most people imagine. Do you call to mind the story of Dido, Princess of Tyre? Her husband, Acerbas, priest of Hercules, was raur dered tor his wealth by the King of P) gmafion, brother to D.do. The widowed Princess was enabled to es cape from Tyre, bearing with her the wealth of her husband, and accompa nied by a number of disaffected no bles. After a variety of adventures, they landed upon the coast of Africa, where Dido bargained with the na tives for as much land as she could enclose in a bull's hide. Selecting a large, tough hide, she caused it to be cut into the smallest possible threads with which she enclosed a large tract of country, on which the city of Car thage soon began to rise. The natives were bound by the letter of their bargain, and allowed the cunning queen to have her way; and after that, whom any one had played off a sharp trick, they said he had cut a Dido.’ That was almost three thousand years ago, and the saying has come down to our day. The Rush for Office. The editor of the LaGrange Re porter writing to his paper from At lanta has the following to say about the rush for office in that city: I left LaGrange last Tuesday, and came here on a train nearly filled with legislators aud office-seekers. The number of the latter class is almost in credible. Gentlemen who have been in the Legislature several years, tell me that the clamor for office is un pre cedented. This is partly owing doubts less to the stringency of money mat ters, which makes it more difficult for men to earn a living in a regular way and partly to the iucreasing tendency to seek an easy way to make money. I could but think last evening while watcliiug the ‘log rolliug’ going on at the Kimball and Markham Houses, that if men would devote as much thought, energy and skill to some regular business they would not feel so strougly the desiro to obtain of fice. Men are here from all parts of the State, alter all kinds of oflioes. Al most every member of the legislature is button-holing bis fellow member in behalf of‘a man from my county,’ and some counties which only send one member, send two or three candidates Some poor fellows are beseiging friends md members to get them some office —no matter what. One man a little less than eight feet high who looked like he was born to fell the forest aud break ‘the stubborn glebe,’ whose hands would rival a sledgehammer, and whose arms were fitted by nature to jerk the under jaw and guide the wary footsteps of the uncertain mule, was circulating around beseeching the Senators to appoint him page! A page—grei.t Hercules! What May Be Made of our Wild Fruits. Prof. Asa Gay believes that many native wild fruits in America may be developed to advantage. Tie says: The leading instances, in my mind, are the pei simmon and papaw, socall ecf. Both persimmons and papavvs are freely offering, f-om spontaneous seedlings, choicer varieties to be selected from both fruits when only a few days old, thereby acoelera ting the fixation of selected varieties into races; and both give Iruits of types wholely distinct from any other we possess of temperate climates. Our American plums have for many yeats been in some sort of cultivation and have improved greatly upon the wild forms, but I suppose they have not been systematically attended to.— Their exterior liability to black knot aud other attacks renders them for the present unsuccessful. Finally, if pomology includes uuts, there is a promising field unclutivated. Our wild chestnuts are sweeter than those of the Old World; it would be well to try whether races might not be devel oped with the nuts as marrens or Spanish chestnuts, and without dimb nution of flavor. If we were not so easily satisfied with a mere choice be tween spontaneous hickory uuts, we might have much better and thinner shelled ones The pecan is waiting to have the bitter rnatter 4 between the kernel bred out; the butternuts and black walnuts too have their excess of oil turned farinaceous and sugary matter, and their shells thin ned and smoothed by continual good breeding, will much sbr pass the European walnut.

Duty of the True Patriot.—A man was landed at the lerry dock yesterday dripping wet and shivering till the rattle of his teeth conld be heard forty feet, away. When ta ken into a saloon to thaw out, some one passed around the hat, remarking that the victim was a man. The man to whom the hat came first called out: ‘Where was it you fell into the river!’ ‘On the Canadian side,’ was the re ply. ‘Then not one cent can you get from me !’continued the man.

Coinmu tation to penal servitude for life, of which part may be subsequently re mitt el. has been the course pursued. A recent great increase in crimes of violence of the worst kind has given occasion for bringing the subject again before the Chamber.
