A Gambler’s Story.
The reporter sat down by the side
of the shabby-genteel and listened to
his story. It was a life sit etch, full of
incidents in the career of a gambler,
and so illustrative of the retribution
that always comes to those who deal
in iniquity that it is herewith publish
ed.
“In the first place,” the gambler be
gan, “I am nearly fifty years old, hav- j
ing entered this mundane sphere, as ,
you newspaper fellows call the world,
nearly two and a half score years ago j
in New Orleans. My father was a
rich planter, the owner of many slaves
and a deal of land, and a largo lot of
gay and gaudy jewels. I was his only
■child, and I may say the idol of his
heart, for my welfare seemed always
■uppermost in his mind, and all that
was necessary to raise mo up in
princely style was done by the old
gentleman and my mother, who, how
■ever, bad the misfortune to be much
younger in years than my father, but
none the less kind.
“Our household was the liappiostiu
the land, care, disturbance or anxiety
’being foreigners with whom none"of
us were acquainted. This reign of
happiness lmd existed in our house
hold from our birth. 1 had never
seen mother and father quarrel.
They never bothered themselves about
•things to come, or other people’s af
fairs, or any of the numerous imagin
ings that produce family jars, scorn
ing at every trifle to take offence and
living as peacefully as is possible here
below. In tlie midst of this happi
ness my father’s only brother, much
younger than himself, handsomer,
too, perhaps, a physician by profes
sion, an Appolo in figure, gay and
graceful in manner, and charming m
conversation, came to visit us, it is no
wonder my mother became enamored
■of him. To make a long story short,
their conduct reached the eais of my
father, and then ho—he —shot my
uncle in a duel, causing three deaths
in consequace—that of my uncle, his
own, and mother’s, she dying of a
broken heart several months subse
quent to the tragedy. The other two
died from wounds inflicted by them
selves in the. duel. Thus, at the ago
of eighteen, was I thrust upon the
wide, wide world of which I had but
little understanding and no experi-
ence whatever.”
“What ditl you do ?” asked the re
porter. “Do?” said the other; “I
fell in with some of ‘hell’s angels, and
i .'t to gambling, which I have never
ceased to do, save for a year or two
after my marriage.”
“Marriage, did you say ?” remarked
the reporter.
“Yes, sir, I married, eloped, ran
away with a pretty girl of poor pa
rentage; caused grief to her friends
and herself, thongh ultimately I
learned to love her in earnest, and
had the ceremony performed by a
minister ?”
“A little girl had been born to us
then, sir, a darling, daisy little cher
ub, whom we both adored, and who
served to unite us in love and peace.
For a while I forgot gambling, re
solved to give it up and never think
of the thousands I had lost. I made
-an examination of my affairs, and,
rounds, sir ! had lost nearly half left
me by father. The disclosure was
■startling. It made me desire to game
-again, to win back my losses, and
■once more I plunged recklessly into
the sea of ruin! My wife and child
were neglected; my money drifted
out of my grasp. I drank heavily,
quarreled frequently, separated from
-friends, ami, when thirty-five years
old, hadn’t a dollar of my fortune!
I had gone down lower and lower,
and, at the age mentioned, lived in
the garret instead of the parlor in
which I had been reared! My wife’s
velvet gowns and fine linens were now
torn, tattered and worse than any of
our servants in former days had been
permitted to wear. In the midst of
this horrible state of affairs I made
an
“alap.mixg discovery.”
“Poor Camille, my wife, was tlireat
cned with death. Her face told me
that consumption would kill her, but
I could do nothing, forlorn and friend
less as I was. The disease grew upon

her, and when, after several weeks, 1
was sufficiently well to go about, T
knew human aid could never avail
her. ..Made desperate by her ap
proaching demise, my wretched con
dition, and harrowing circumstances,
I once more sought the gaming table;
this time in a different role—a roper.
Yes, sir - , a roper I I, who was the.
son of one of the wealthiest of South
erners, descended to the life of a roper
for a gambling house. Tue thought
was bitter enough to make me throw
myself into the Mississippi, and only
my wife and daughter caused mo to
do otherwise. I flourished, though;
I soon roso to be a dealer, brought my
dear ones out of their misery, and pro
longed my wife’s life somewhat, though
she soon died.”
“What did you do then ?” asked the
J roporter.
“Continued with the gamblers, won
I back a great portion of my losses,
and was once more living in the lap
of luxury when more misfortunes
overtook me. This timo my daugh
ter was the cause. I had always
managed to have her at school. She
was bright as sho was beautiful. A
pretty-faced, rosy-cheeked, light
haired little darling, whom I cared
more for than all tlio world besides.
Pleasant in conversation, agreeable
in rich but not gaudy in
dress, loving and gontlo in disposi
tion, she charmed all with whom she
came in contact, and had numerous
admirers. Ono of the,so young men
who visited her was the son of a
wealthy banker; handsome, well edu
cated, and winning in manner, he
soon captivated my little one, and
made believe ho would marry her.

in his promises that she kept the af
| lair a secret from her father until at
] last he discovered hew matters stood,
I and forbade the fellow’s presence in
| iuy house. The little dove of adaugh
| ter pined away from this time on; her
! plump little cheeks lost their roseate
| hue, her lips their cherry blossom,
• her eyes their sparkling luster, and
• her voice its rich melody. Can you
| understand why ?”
“I have an idea sir,” said the one
who listened, but I may be Wrong; 1
| suspect a crime had been committed,
j Was it so?”
“Yes, it was true. Even as had
been done the mother, so was done
| the daugher. A few. months ended
I the affair’. Poor little Emily died in
i giving birth to a child. The little in
i’ rut followed its mother, and now they
rest side by side under the sod, while I,
i the only survivor of the family, am a
; miserable, god-forsaken wretch, doom
|ed to drag out a weary existence for
years to come. Gambling did it.
So will it do to others; so has it done
to thousands. God help us.” And
! the mau forgot that ho was an out
cast as he wept over the hitter mern
j orios of a wasted life. “God help us!

How to Calculate Interest, and
Vi lull it Vi il! do.
Tho following rules aro so simple
and so true, according to all husiness
usages, that every banker, broker,
merchant or clerk, should post thorn
up for reference. There being no
such thing as a fraction in it, there
is scarcely liability to error or mis
take. By no other arithmetical pro
cess can the desired information bo ob
tained by so few figures.
Six Per Cent—Multiply any given
number of dollars by the number of
days of interest desired, Separate the
right hand and divide by six; tho i-e
--snlt is the true iutercst on such sum
for such number of days at six per
cent.
Eight Per Cent—Multiply any
given amount for the number of days
upon which it is desired to ascertain
the interest of such sum for tho time
required at eight per cent,
Ten Per cent —Multiply tho same
as above and divide by thirty-six,
and the result will be tho amount of
interest at ton per cent.
What it Will Do—lf a mechanic or
clerk saves only 2 3-1 cents per day,
from tho timo he is twenty-one until
lie is three-score and ton, the aggre
gate, with interest, will amount to
§2,000 and and a daily saving of
7 1-2 cents reaches the important
sum of $29,000.
A sixpence saved daily will provide
a fund of $7, 000—sufficient to pur
chase a good farm. There are few
employees who can not save daily, by
abstaining from tho uso of cigars, to
baco, liquor, etc., twice or ten times
the amount of the six cent piece.—
Every person should provide for old
ago, and tho man in business who
can lay by a dollar a day will eventu
ally find himself possessed of over

A Colorado Court.
The Administration of Justice In Itluc
! izznnl (Illicit.
(Rocky Mountain News.)
Jim Barker, a well known charac
ter of tho mountains, whoso latch
string hangs out at the head of Blue
Gizzard Gulch, was elected a justice
of tho peaco for that section of El
Paso countyjat tho September election,
and Mike Irving, a comrade of Jim’s,
was empowered as tho executive offi
cer of his court. Last week Jim con
vened his first court, to hear tho com
plaint of Elder Slator, a traveling
missionary, who had caused tho ar
rest of Zimri Bowles, a resident of tho
foot-hills, upon a charge of stealing
the elder’s one-eyed mule. Zimra
had been arrested by Irving, tho con
stable, while in tho act of causing tho
descent of the mule down Mad Gun
mountain, with his lariat fastened to
tho tail of tho animal. Tho proof
against Zimra was conclusive. Ac
cordingly, the justice, after much le
gal perplexity, proceeded to sentence
Zimri to one year’s confinement in !
tho territorial penitentiary, which
sentence he concluded as follows:;
“An’ now Zim, seein’ as I am about
out of things to eat, an’ ns you will 1
have the cost to pay, I reckon you’d
better take a turn among the foot
hills with your rifle, an’ see if you
can’t pick up some m'eat before night,
as you can’t start for the Big Canon
before mornin’.” ‘Which marketing
duty was performed by Zirn’s bring
ing in one blacktai! fawn and a rabbit
within tho time prescribed as a post
: script to tho sentence. On the fol
lowing morning tho constable, mount
j ed upon his broncho, accompanied by
the prisoner astride of the mule,
which the elder had kindly loaned
; him, started through the mountains
| for the penitentiary, where they ar
: rived the second day out, their ani
i inals loaded with a deer, two auto
; lopes, and a small cinnamon bear,
I which tnev sold to the warden of the
i prison. After dividing tho money,
■ the constable proceeded to hand over
Zimri on tho following mittimus,
which is carefully preserved, and may
bo seen in the possession of tho war
den :
“To the bed man of tho Colorado
prison, down at tho foot of the Big
J Canyon on the Arkansas. Take:
Notis:—Zimri Bonis, who comes with
i this here, Stole Elder Slater’s ono
| eyed mule, an it was all the initio the
j Elder had, and I sentenced Zim offi
cially to ono year in tho Colorado
prison, and hated to do it, seem’ as
! Zim once stood by mo liko a man
when the Injuns had me in a tight
place, and arter I sentenced I to
line year for stealing tho Elder’s
S mule, my wife, Lizzy, who is a kind
o’tendcr hearted critter, come and
leaned her arm on my shoulder and
says she, ‘Father, don’t forget the
time when Zim, with his rifle, covered
our cabin from Granite Mountain and
saved us from tho Arapahoes, an la
ther I have heard you tell that after
you was wounded at Sand creek, an
helpless, it was Zimri’s rifle that
halted the Indian that was creeping
l in tho grass to scalp you.’ An then
| there was a tears splash fell upon tho
j sentence and I changed my mind
| sudently, as follows: sooing as the
1 mule had but one eye, an wern’t
j more’u half a mule at that, you can
let Zim go at about six mouths, an
sooner if the Injuns shud get ugly, an
furthermore, if tho Elder shud quiet
down an give in any times, I will par
don Zim out iustanter.

county, in tho territory.”
Tho warden, after informing the
constable that he could not receive
the prisoner upon tho commitment
offened, proceeded to explain that lie
should have given a bond in the sum
of about three hundred dollars to ap
pear at tho district court. Accord
ingly, tho constable withdrew with his
prisoner, when it was agreed between
them that Zimri should give tho con
stable his bond for tho amount men
tioned by the warden. This was ac
complished by Zimri subscribing his
name to an old replevin bond calling
j for three hundred dollars, found
among the papers transmitted to the
constable by his predecessor. Then,
I as the constable intended returning
by way of Pinon mountain, to exam
ine a bear den where ho had seen a
couple of cubs playing last spring, he
gave tho bond to Zimri to carry back
to the justice. But Zimri, while on
his return, traded the three hundred
dollar bond to a mountain squatter,
just in from Missouri, for a horse, sad
dle and bridle, and the prisoner is be
lieved to ho, a this time, a dashing
hunter on the plains.

Another New State.— The Colora
do Constitutional Convention which
assembles at Denver December 20,
with a two-tliirds Republican major
tv, is to bo held for tho purposo of
framing a State Constitution to bo

conformity to a vote of Congress, will

Colorado admitted into the Union.
This will bo in time for the State to
participate in tho Presidential elec
tion, casting three electoral votes.
It is claimed that Colorado lias a pop

from the census of 1870, when its pop
ulation was about 40,000. Colorado

iluos of the tomlqiit'.
(St. Louis Times, 34.)
Among tho attendants at the corn
quo last night, were two handsomely
dressed young ladies, accompanied by
a curly headed escort of prepossess
ing appearance. Tho threo entered
tho theatre togother a few minutes
before the performance began and
took seats in tho parquet. They at
tracted perhaps more attention than
a party of Indies and gentlemen usu
ally do at tho comiqno, partly on ac
count of tho rare beauty of their faces
and doubtless owing to t the strange
ness of their manners, for they did
not act, any of them, as tho charac
teristic female visitor of the comiqo is
in the habit of doing. It was evident
from tho frequent glances they cast,
at ono another and their behavior in ;
general, that they wore unused to the I
songs aud ballots and clog dances of |
the comique. "When tho nights pro- j
gramme was about half completed an j
usher was seen to step up to the trio
and whisper something in the car of
one of the young ladies. Sho gave a
start and communicated that some- •
thing to her companions. They hold
a conversation together and for a time
seemed to forget all about tho farce
that was being played on the stage.
Perhaps five minutes had elapsed af
ter this visit from the usher, when he !
again stepped up to them, and ad- j
dressed them so these sitting near;
could hear. Someone outside want- i
ed them, and the usher was of the
opinion that they had better step out j
and see about it.
Tho trio arose with coloring checks
and trembling limbs anil left the the
atre, all eyes following them as they
went out. At the door they met sev
eral police officers, who very politely
asked them to take a walk to the
Chesnnt street police station. They
obeyed, but with very great reluc
tance. At the station they all hid
their faces, even the curly headed es
cort. Ono of the girls began to cry,
and it was evident that all of them
wanted to. They begged to bo re
leased, and tried to hide their faces,
and when asked their names refused
to give them.
Finally, upon being assured by Ser
geant Brown that their names should
i not be given to tho public, and that
; nothing clso terrible, should happen
to thorn, they opened their hearts to
the Sergeant and confessed all. They
were country girls, of respectable 111- J
inois families living not many miles J
from St. Louis. Two were f fliool -
tresses tho other a music teacher.
They were a little wild, but nothing
I more. They came to tho city to see j
: the “Orphans,” but, chancing to see
tho comique orchestra marching
through the streets yesterday after
noon, a desire suddenly seized them
| to visit a first-class variety theater.
I Tho difficulty, however, was one which
i at first seemed to them impossible to
| overcome. Ladies were not in tho
S habit of visiting tho comique, and
much less ladies without a gentleman
escort. They thought over the pro
ject awhile .ml at last it was decided
that one of them should dress in male
attire and escort the other two. Tho
plan was carried out, but unfortu
nately for thorn, tho disguise of the
escort was detected by an officer
standing at the entrance of tho thea
tre and their arrest followed. The
sergeant’s heart was touched by their
story, and without locking them up
he placed them in charge of an officer
and sent them all to the hotel where
they were stopping.
A Corn-Shelling Match.
[Raleigh Correspondent Vicksburg Herald. ]
The tar heel oonventiouist knows a
thing or two besides making consti
tutions. Ho can beat all creation
shelling corn. Tho other evening a
strolling peddler had a nowly pateut
corn-sholler hawking it about Raleigh,
and was showing a crowd on tho
street how fast it could shell, when
an old member from tho mountains
walked up, dressed in blue jeans and
a cob-pipe in his mouth, and said to
tho peddler:
“i can beat that thing shelling corn
myself.”
“Well, sir,” said the peddler, “I’ll
give you a machine for nothing if
you’ll do it.”
“Good as wheat,” says convention
ist, and lie searched o\ or the pile fur
a red cob, made a boy take it to a fire
j and burn it a little, and then squar
-1 ing himself on the sidewalk, ho seized
the red cob with regular old planta
tion grip in one hand while ho held
the ear of corn between both logs
with the other, and waited for the
word “go,” from a little man in the
crowd, who held tiio watch to time
them.
“Go I” cried the fellow, and at it
they went.
But the little peddler was so exci
ted in tho start that his shollcr got
choked, and while ho was scuffling to
uuehoke it, tho old member coolly
got up, and pitching his half-shelled
ear into the pile said he to tho ped
dler:
“I ain’t got time to shell against
that thing, mister; it would make me
slowmotionod for life,” and ho stepped
away lively, the crowd shouting and
the peddler mad.
The most apparent thing about the
Speakership is the steady rise iu Mr.
Kerr’s stock.
L A Tr.Tuiim.r Oyct.onu. \ friend ha.
furnished us with tho following ac
count of a fearful cyclone at Gains
villo last Friday. Tho same storm
struck Welboni, prostrating fourteen
houses, and killing ono child and a
lady. A number of persons were also
wounded. AVo shall probably learn
of serious injury to person aud prop
erty elsewhere. Tho Singer Sewing
Machine Company lost twenty-five or
thirty of their machines at Gains
villo.
Gaiksvillp, Fla., Nov. 5, 1875.
Not over threo hour’s ago this
town was visited,with ono of the most
terriffie and destructive cyclones over
known in this country. The dining
room and kitchen of Oak Hall (a
hotel) wore loveled in an instant,
very seriously injuring Mrs. Lem.
Wilson and her chamber-maid, and
killing a colored man employed as
gardener,who was eating his dinner
in the kitchen when it fell.
The house of Mr. Matlieson, Air, W.
K. Cessna, Air. Coker, and Rev. J. 11.
Tompkios were all blown down. .Mrs. i
Matlieson is seriously injured. Airs, j
Coker and Mrs. Cessna narrowly es- i
caped with their lives, and others not
known. Maj. Cullu’s now house was;
destroyed also. The cyclone was fol
lowed by tho heaviest rain-fall I ever
saw. Mr. Olmsted lias just arrived
from Nownansville and says the road
is so flooded that it is almost impassa
ble. Yours, S.
Nemesis.— Fivo years ago, says the
New York Day Book, four of the most •
powerful and distinguished men in j
New York, perhaps in America -
Greeley, Fisk, Tweed and Beecher
were then at the acme of their great
ness. Boor Greeley, mad ail his life,
died a ravin// madman ; Fisk—-the
luckiest of the crowd —was assasina
ted, not like Lincoln, by a brave and
magnanimous, however mistaken
man, hut by a lurking coward and
sneak; Tweed has tasted of vastly
more than the bitterness of death in I
his striped prison dress, while Beech
er isnot only morally dead, but it were
a thousand times better that his ecu- :
snal old carcass were laid away out
of tho sight of decent men and
women everywhere oh the planet.
Never before, perhaps, in the history
of the world has there been such a
striking illustration of the old Greek
tragedy which, with its blinded eyes
and staggering steps, marched inex
orably to its fitting doom.

At these periods tho paint dries slow

ready to crumble off. Paint applied
in cold weather will last twice as
long as in hot weather.
Somebody has brought out the fol
lowing interesting reminiscence:
“When Benjamin Franklin was a
lad, he began to study philosophy,
and soon became fond of applying
technical names to common objects.
Ono evening, when ho mentioned to
his father that ho had swallowed
some acephalous mollusks, the old
man was much alarmed, and, sudden
ly seizing him, called loudly for help.
Mrs. Franklin came with warm water, |
and the hired man rushed in with
tho garden pump. They forced half
a gallon down Benjamin’s throat,
then held him by tho heels over the
edge of tho porch and shook him,
while the old man said : ‘lf we don’t
get these things out of Benny ho will
bo pizened, sure.’ AYhon they were J
out, and Benjamin explained that 1
the articles alluded to were oysters,!
his father fondled him for an hour
with'ft trunk strap for scaring tho j
family. Ever afterward Franklin’s
language was marvelously simple and
explicit.”
A gentleman who reached AVasli
ington Monday night, is reported to
have given tho following as tho re
sult of a conversation between Hon.
S. S. Gox and himself on the subject
of the speakership : Mr. Gox says the
contest is between him and Kerr, with
the chances in his favor. He expects
to get New York and Ohio solid in
the caucus, and to divide Indiana
and Missouri with Kerr, and will have
Illinois, Michigan, Kentucky aud the
England democrat, lie says Randall
will get Pennsylvania and some of the
southern states; that Kerr’s iTrcngth
lies in tho west only, and that he will
divide willi him. All of which can
be taken for what it ia worth.
