The farm is mortgaged to the Inst cent it is ; worth, and I owe a heap of money be sides—more by a long shot than I know | how to pay. What is to ho and •ne? > ! 'l’m sure I dou’t know Peter,’ replied the bothered wife; ‘but it seems too aw j In! bad to be turn' and out of house and ! home at oor time of life. Nov, it uur sen John would only many Johns Brown's daughter Sully it would help us ; out amazingly. The Browns, you see, | are well off, and the connection would be a perfect gold mine to os. Os course i j they'd givo Solly the hundred acres of land and things they said they would,’ j ‘That's a good idea, wife, and Peter: ; brightened up amazingly. ‘You always! j were a cube woman, and the n> tiou does j | you cr. dit. But doyou think the young ! tolks would take to it?' | T don’t know, but it seems to mn that i ; they’ve always taken a great notion tot each other ever since they were children I ecu more like hi other and sister than any tiling else.’ j ‘But suppose the Browns should object, ius most likely they would. You know 1 we ain’t on good term, thick as the young I folks have been.’ ‘l’ll tell yon wliut, Peter, is just the j thing lor us to do— put up John to elope : with Sally.’ j' ‘Agreed. I'll leave it a'J to you to manage.’ j Thus the matter was settled, and the I scheming couple went to l ed to dream of | a speedy release from their financial em | ban assments. i £h,incidents are sometimes of the most ' curious character—almost surpassing he | lief in some instances. About tbe time lof the above convi rsation between Mr. ! and Airs Smith, tlh-ir neighbor*, Mr. anil ‘ Mrs. Jonas Brown, held an important j | conference, I ‘Do you remember that, note for six . I hundred dollars I gave fur sleek last I spring?’ asked Jonas. ‘Yes,’ leplied his wife. ‘Well, it's coming due in about a month, and how under the sun we’re go ing to pay it I don’t know.’ ‘Mortgage the farm.’ •We've done that until it can’t I e mortgaged ano'lier cent. I'm clean dis couraged; and there's Sally wanting a piano. Where 'the money is coming from is more than I know. We're on the verge of bankruptcy.’ ‘I wish Sully would marry John Smith gracious knows they're together enough In take a notion that way.’ ‘Ye.-; but I don't see how that would he p up any.’ ‘You don’t, rh? Well, I do. Ain't nis folks ric.ii? and wouldn't they sot him up I j handsomely? Then we cmiiii stand some chance of getting' help through ! Sally.’ ‘That's a good plan,’was Jonas’con clusion, after profound meditation, 'but l lhe and ffiexilty is, that the Smiths are not ion good terms with us, and vveu'd be i like y to oppose the match.’ ‘T i'll the best plan is to set the young j folks op to an elopement.’ |gj So it chanced that the Browns and the Smiths planm dto dispose of their chil dren to their own pecuniary advantage. The next nter> in each case was to mould i tlie young ooe§ to the proper shape. I John Smith was unhandsome, biawny, j country fellow, with plenty of good sense; and in-, ocean of love for Sally Bruwu, | When hi* parents proposed bis marrying j iinr, he informed them that lie would [gladly do so, but he feared her parents ; would object. Tiien his father slyly j suggested an elopement, and offered to I aid in carrying out such an exploit. John s-aid he would think about it. Sally Brown w as a rustic maiden with tunefi ‘redness of cheeks, and rejoicing iu | tLe possession of the lasting comeliness which is derived item a I right smile, sweet temper, and a pair of clear earnest eyt-s, made none the less expressive by i the near neighborhood of a saucy little ! tetrouesse nose. Her w avy brown hair | i had not a ripple out of place, and her I plump little figure was encased in a wellj i fitting dress, which was neatness itself. I Wie n her parents spoke to her about John, she blushed becomingly, and, after ! close questioning, admitted that sue Would be ‘tickled lo death’Jto many him. She further slated that tury were run- : ! ning over with love tor each other; that i they bad loug settled the question ot ul- . • tiaiate union, but that they feared paren. 1 HERE SHALL TIT 2 FRESSTHF, PEOPLE’S RICiHTS MAINTAIN, UN A WED BY PEAR AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.

They I should have known that John aid Sally would upon the first occasion poßßfide j unbosom themselves, for how could true i loveis keep a secret, nnd such a secret? I And they didn’t. At the next meeting ! each told the other nil lie or she had been ; told by parental lips, but neither could j conceive the object of the old folks. However, they were not overdisposed to qnesiion the matter They weie too glad that the consummation so devoutly ► wished seemed so near at hand to ques tion how it had been brought about. Conscious that their prqgenitors'were up to some kind of trickery, they resolved to at once avail themselves of the oppur tilnity to elope before any change in the aspect of aflairs should occur. Having thus cotrcladtd, to lead their parents its ti ay. ‘l’ve hi on 'talking to Joint, 1 said Sally, demurely, to Mi. and Mis. Brown; ‘and we have concluded to elope; it is all set tled, and we’re ready just as noon as it can be arranged.’ ‘1 saw Sally last night,’said John to Mr. and Mrs. Smith, ‘and she agreed to elope with me; so I think the thing hud better be hurried right along.* One week from this time all the lire limiiiariea had been arranged. Sally had been supplied with a hi an new dre e and other fixings, and John had been given enough money to buy a suit |<d wedding toggery. The respective j parents were laughing in their respec | live sleeves ut their own dinning. The I Browns were overjoyed ut outwitting ! the Smiths, the Smiths wen: happy iTt fading the Browns, and both chuckled I over a speedy relief from financial em barrassment. The eventful night came, and John hitched up one of his father'sTiorseH and | drove over toward Sally’s domicile.; When within a dozen rods of the house lie gave a signal whistle, and Rally Caine out. Under the peculiar circumstances they feared no interference, and did not deem it necessary to exercise any great j amount of Caution. John gave Rally a i resounding kiis, helped her inli) the; wagon, and eway they went. Shortly after their iiepm t uro two scene* occurred which must here be re cord'd. Jonas Brown returned from the village : store, and entered Ids hnuso in a stale < Ti gnat, mental and bodily excitement. The latter was caused by last walking, and ' the foi mcr—but the conversation that, ensued will best explain, | ‘They’re gotiel’ex'olairi.ed Mrs Brown, j exulting!/, ‘and they'll be bitched iu an j hour or loss.’ I ‘The ill uce they have,’cried Mr. Brown, j | ‘I hoped to get hero time enough to stop cm.’ ‘To stop ’em?’ ‘Yes, that's what I said.’ * VYhat foi?’ •Just this: Old Smith ain’t worth a cent; can’t pay wliut ho owe*; will be Isold out within a luoutb; it's the talk of the whole village. ‘Goodness gracious!’ gasped Mrs. Brown, ‘VI hat shall sve do?’ ‘l’ll tell you what I'll do, Rally shan’t marry tlie beggar: I’ll follow them to Squire Jones,’ and got there bi lure the ceremony. With this he hurriedly hitched up a horse and spun away to Squire Jones’ house, about five miles dintaut. The other impattaut scene mentioned was at the Smith- residence, and was opened by the pnsipiUte entrance ol ' Mrs. with the breathless exclamation: ! Has he gone? ; •Who?' inquired Mr. Smith, j,- ‘John.’ I ’Yes,' and Mr. Smith rubbed bia bauds with glee. ‘He weut all ol hail an hour , ago.’ ‘Don’t stand there rubbing your hand, screamed tne lady, ‘but harness up Die old mate just as quick as you can, and follow ’em. Thu Browns ain’t worth a ' dollar iu iba 'world; Ju.s. Robinson just iold uie Bo—and a mortgage on their firm going to be foreclosed. So Sally ! Won't get n solitary cent.’ j Smith hurried the old mare itit.) her harness, and rattled away toward Squire i Julies’ residence. ! John a.nl Sally had proceeded leisurely abunl four miles, the funner driving with' one arm, and holding S illy on Hie scut with the other, when they heard the sound of wheels a short distance in the rear. Ttiey bud just passed a long bend in the road, and looking across they saw, revealed by the moonlight, the pursuing Brown ‘”*hy that’s pa!' exclaimed Sally, 'Yes, and be mean's mischief, I'll bet,' said John. ''What shall wo do?’ squealed Sally, ‘l’ll show you,’said John, Jumping from the wagon, he removed a long raij from the fence, and placed it across the roadway. Then he drove on again, af a gait that made the horses steam like a boiler. Brown came on at a furious rate, only j to be emiimarily checked by the raid, i The horse jumped'the rail, but the front wheels of the wagon collapsed under llje j collision. Blown was tumbled mil, and j the frightened horse ran off with the] wreck of the vehicle. Just as Mr Brown was picking biuisell from' the oitch he saw the accident repeat ed; this time Mr. Smith being the lead ing actor, and Mr. Smith’s mare gallop ing away with the lour wheels,. Brown and Smith were inveterate on euileSj and neither would speak; but both stai ted on at a rapid run fir the Squire's, about a mile off, where they arrived very inticli out of breath. They hurst into the house like a whirlwind, just in time to here the words: ‘I now pronounce you man and wife.’ '‘Hold on I’yelled Brown. ‘1 object I’ ‘So do J,’ screamed Smith . ‘Yon are a little too late,’ remarked the Squire. ‘Nothing but a divorce can ! fix it now.’ The parents fumed and glared nl each j other. ‘l’m sure,' pa,’ nleaded the daughter, ‘that you and mu both said——’ ‘Daughter,’ hurriedly interposed Mr. Brown, turning very rod, but striving to appear dignified. ’1 am not disposed to be tyrannical; now that you are married, I shall not refuse my blessing.’ ‘And you father,’ said John, ‘we j won'd nevi r have eloped, if you and . mother hadn’t said ‘N‘:ver mind, my sou,’ interrupted Mr. j Smith; 'I wil' not lie hard with you, i j forgive you both.’’ Brown and Smith thereupon became ' reconciled, arid all rode home together in ! the elopers’ wag ut. A IMuwel ilticf. Among the rend nisceiiecs told of. the; I'l anco-l’nisslan war is the account of a l curious duel betweeir two subordinate I officer* of the French army. ‘You in tend to fight a duel, eh!! asked the com- ; mandant. ‘Yes, Colonel. Words have .passed which Can only be wiped out with blood. We don’t want to pass for cowards,’ ‘Yury v.oll, you shall fight, but it must he in this way: Take your carbines, pisce yourselves on A line filling the mansion wfiove llie enemy is.
