One man silting in the corner of
the fireplace, alone remained 1 Vilen t.
His name was Ben Hardee. For
years he, had followed the calling of
a hunter, and fjrß.Jbere, in that
region who had been more successful
in it than he.
J ■ ■•!.*? ffl
“Come, Ben, what-are your ideas
of the matter?”
It was Sain Grey, an old border
man, who asked this question.
“ Boys, I believe tbpre is truth in
dreams,” he answered.
Some stared at him, while others,
the more skeptical, ,broke, iuto a loud
laugh. When tiis outbreak was
over Ben said, i a serious totve, and
with a solemn look upon his faoe: l u<<
“ You may laugh if you will, but
you can’t change my mind. A dream
I once had was tbe means of saving
my life.”
g All eyes, were at once turned upon
-thekpeaker, with a halt-astonished,
half skeptical look.
“ You may think I am joking,” lie
added : but u hat I have said, boys,
is the Gospel truth.”
“IJow was it? Tell us about if,
Ben,” said all of them in chorus.
was silent for a low moments, and
then he began:
“It was six years ago that the af
fair happened that I am going to tell
you about.
“I was hunting upon one of the
forks ai t^e.^pjv^qji^a,There was
a dozen of us in the party, all jolly
fellows; and as we were luuky, we
had- as good a time as 'evier a party
need to ask for.
“It chanced, one day, when we
had beeli encamped for.over a week
in the same spot, that I got separated
from the rest of the party. I had
shot at a deer and only wounded it,
and it led me a long chase before I
was able to draw sight on it again
and bring it down.
“ Having done so at length, I set to
work to strip off its bide and cut out
the best pieces to carry to the capip,
“My mind had been so taken up
with the wounded deer that I had
paid but little heed to the way I was
going, and now when I was about to
set out for the camp, I for the first
time looked about me to lake my
bearings. Tbe more 4 looked, the
more confused I got. For the life
of me I couldn’t toll which was the
way to the camp.
“ Thick clouds vailed the sky, and
hid tbe face of the sun so completely
that I could not even tell where it
was. Neither before or since was I
ever caught in such & fit.
“ After standing awhile, I started
off, though feeling far from sure that
I was right, i believed that I was
going the way I ought, still I might
miss the camp, which 1 could not ex
actly locate, try as I would.
“ The day was nearer gone than I
had thought, and almost before I
knew it the shadows of night began
to gather around. I was then no
surer of my way to tbe camp than
I was when I left the spot where I
had slain the deer.
“ The darkness gathered fast; and
in a little lime I was completely be*
wildered. For the life of me I knew
not which way to turn.
“ I thought the matter over calmly,
and made np my mind that there
was but one thing for me to do. I
must camp where I was that night,
and wait for sunrise before trying to
go further on.
“My mind made Up on this, I set
to work to make myself as comfort
able as possible.
“I knew that it was risky building
a fire, for th*e signs of redskins had
been,thick that day, hut f was hun
gry, and.* venison steak was a great
temptation. So I made op my miud
to take the chances. 0 .- ,
“Fuel was rather scarce where 1
was, bat I hunted around, and gath
ered enough together for a small
fire. I -Soon had it burning cheer
fully, and placed oti ft a large slice
of the deer and cooked it to a turn.
Then I fell to apg made i hearty

of the savages. With a howl which
even now I can seem to hear ringing
in my ears, they sprffng. upon me in
haste to take my Hf* ki ; .
“At this point of my dream I
awoke with a start, and for a moment
I could -hardly believe that the scen,es
through which t. had passed in my
dream were not a reality. I gazed

A Hairless Horse. — An equioe
curiosity arrived recently at San
Francisco in the shape of a hairless
horse from Australia, The name of
this remarkable animal is Caoutchouc,
and he was captured in the neigh
borhood of the Balloon river, Queens
land, when about two years old. He
is now about six years of age, of a
pure black from the tip of bis ears to
his hoofs, but without a -single hair
on any part of his body. The color
is not unlike that of a black horse
very closely clipped, and the micro
scope fails to detect a single hair
from nose to tail. He is a gelding,
about fifteen bauds high, well made
and ’.=*,cs&H3oinpact, with fine, clean
legs, powerful forearms aud thigh,
and a clean, blood-like, but unusually
broad head, from which sparkle a
bright pair of eyes beaming with
good temper and docility.

A singular tragedy of the
late war has been brought to light by
the return of Thomas Clark to his
family in Jobutonville, Itenselaer
county, N. Y. Clark was a doctor,
and deserted his family about the
opening of the rebellion. He entered
the army and was reported to have
been shot for desertion. His tomb,
marked by a pine board, had been
seen near Union Mills, Ya., by a
Johnsonville man. After thirteen
years absence Clark baa reappeared
in his native town. He is a surgeon
of a Liverpool steamer. He says
that the night before the execution
he obanged clothes with a .comrade,
and escaped. The. comrade, less
lucky, was shot in Clark’s place.

* THE BOMBERS’DOOM. A
n Fir the ltttter part of the sulnmer
bt 1864} I was ordered by smy: em
ployer to make a trip with a large*
stock df Yankee not ions, to a entail
towft shay miles diataWh /El>e wagon
was a large one, and was drawn by
four horses. -The morning: was fine,
and it being dry weather, 4 hiade
good time, and was expecting to put
tip that evening at the house of &
Triend, who lived about balf ’wsy,
when I for the first time noticed the
sky was getting cloudy and darker
every momeot. 'and in a littls while
the rain came down fast and steady,
and this wagon being heavily loaded!,
tbe horses ctiuld with difficulty get
along. ' . c
Presently one of the hind wheels
ran.into the ditch, and the next in
stant broke with a crash, throwing
me off into the mud. Gathering my
self up, I sot to > work to repair the
damages, but found H was impossi
ble, unaided, to raise the wagon to
replace the wheel. So, unhitching
one horse, I mounted and started for
help, if such could be procured, as A
was a long distance from any human
habitation. / 0
After an hour's hard riding, X saw
a liglit sinning from the window of a
hut in the woods, and , whipping up
my horse to renewed,exertion, I rode
up to the door and knocked repeat
edly, when, after a considerable delay,
Ihetirdthe latch raised anda burly
looking individual made bis appear
aiiqp t and. ,W W n ® B ii|f p t;,
I related to him .whpt had happened,
and, begged of liim, to come with me
and I would pay him handsomely for 1
his services. He said he would con
sult his brother, and -I_could in the
meantime come in and dry my
clothes, which had got wqt through.
I accepted the invitation and wont
with him into the room, where I
found a large fire kindled on the
hearth, a powerful built man
was sitting near by on a log of wood,
whom my guide introduced as his
brother Jim, saying his own name
wall Boh.
After questioning me as to what
business I was on, they accompanied
me to where I bad left my broken
wagon, which we fixed up in the best
way possible, and all three mounted
and started for the hut, where we
arrived about midnight. I was told
I could stay there till moniing, which
I concluded to do, and taking a Can
dle, one of the men conducted me to
a small room, and bidding me good
night, left me.
Being greatly fatigued, I threw
myself upon a straw mattress, In a
corner of the room, and soon was in
a profound slumber. How long I
slept I could not say, but I awoke
with a start, as if I heard voices in
low consultation near my room door.
Immediately getting np, I listened
attentively, and heard Bob, whom I
recognized by his voice, say:
“ Well, I guess he is asleep, now.
yon stand against tbe door while
Igo and dispatch him; dead men tell
no tales.”
Henring enongh to cause me to
act ot once, if J valued my existence,
I crawled to where my coat laid and
took from one of the pockets my
brace of revolvers. Thus prepared,
I waited for events, and soon I could
discern in the gloom the form of a
man with a shining knife in his hand,
who advanced with stealthy steps
toward where I had lain a few min
ntes before, and on reaching which
be quickly plunged the knife to where
be expected to find me.
The next instant I fired my revol
ver at him, and he fell with a curse
and groan, = •
I immediately started in pursuit of
the retreating form of the other mis
creant, who ran ont of the door of
the hut at>d made for the woods. I
fired another shot at him, and with a
cry of pain he threw up his hands
and fell prostrate to the ground.
I did not wait to see the effect of
the shots, but instantly mounted one
of the hones and started for the near
est town, where I related the whole
circumstance to a justice, and re
turned to the hut with apoeae of
officers, where, we found the first man
I hsd shot jast as I left him, but
dead, the shot having taken effect in
the longs. The other one, whom I
recognized as Bob, was in a dying
condition, Upon finding he had not
long to Jive, he confessed to all the
crimes'' be had committed hi oonjn
pany with Jim, beside the attempt
upon my life, which wa* their last,
