A stout negro woman, after uttering
this cry several times, turned slowly back
to her cabin, muttering to herself,

General placed the basket on his head,
and, with his hands in his pockets,
walked composedly down the alley.
General was bora soon after his parents
were pronounced "contraband of war”
by General Butler; and, out of gratitude
for his protection, they named their son
General Butler Stubbs, and General he
was always called. Ilis father, Moses
Stubbs, managed by oysteringand doing
odd jobs that foil in his way to keep his

WM. I*. HARDER,
Moses Stubbs, his wife, and seven
dren, of whom General, now a lad of
thirteen, was the oldest. I say at night,
for it would hardly accommodate so
many people awake and moving about.
If it ever chanced that they were all at
home during the day some of them would
sit out in the yard. One of those numer
ous inlets from the sea which intersect
tho eastern part of Virginia came up close
to their back door. This was, on some
accounts, a great convenience, for at low
tide they dug out of the mud many a
good meal of clams and oysters.
General had once been to school a few
weeks, and had leared to read easy words
in large print, an accomplishment of
which his mother was very proud; but
now ho was old enough to help at home,
he was not allowed to continue the pur
suit of learning. He still kept in a chink
between the boards or the cabin, with i
broken knife-blade and a piece of col
ored glass, a few leaves of a book, which
a vague idea would some day
prove the "open sesame” of knowedge
and riches.
The young lady for whom Mrs. Stubbs
washed smiled kindly at tho queer, tat
tered figure, as she took the basket of
clothes.
"What is your name?” she inquired.
"General Butler Stubbs.”
"What are you going to do to cam
such a name, General!”
"Don’t know, Miss,” said General,
with a puzzled expression, for he had
idea his name was ,s ‘~
Tom or Dick.

'But, General, there are other battles
to be fought. Perhaps you i
who is going to fight* against
narancc.”
T reckon I is, Miss,” said the lad,
with a growing feeling of importance,
though with but a vague idea of the
meaning of her words.
‘Dis yer General should orter fight
’gninst sin ’n’ ignorance,” he said to him
self on his way home. "Old Father
Parker say ’tis a sin to play marbles,” he
thought, a3 he saw a group of boys in
dulging in that amusement, aud recalled
a powerful discourse he had heard a few
Sundays previous on the text: 4 ‘Marble
iot, brcthcren.”
lie ouickencd his space, with the idea
of beginning tho fight against sin then
and there, by pitching into those bad
boys at once; but lt suddenly occurred
to him that he himself had been guilty of
playing marbles only the day before, and
even now was in possession of two of
those wicked, fascinating toys. He tried
to forget them, but could not. They
med to burn in his pocket, and at last,
he crossed the bridge, be held them
behind him, so that he could not sec
them, and dropped them into the water.
Poor, foolish, ignorant General! But
perhaps this hard-won victory was not
in vain; it may have made him stronger
to fight the real enemy.
A few days after this there came a very
igh tide, and the Stubbs family was
jliged to move out of- their little cabin,
and find what accommodations they could
among their neighbors.
" Dar’s right smart ob us,” said tho
General to himself, 41 an’ it’s'a pretty
just gwine to stay out,”
[ aimlessly along toward
rnit." He passed the hotel, and
out upon the sandy beach which
lies in front of Fortress Monroe.
On one aide were the high ramparts,
bristling with guns, and on the other
the broad expanse of the Chesapeake.
When darkness came on, he stretched
himself on the sand dose to the water-
battery, and fell asleep. He awoke after
a short nap,' feeling uncomfortably cool,
and began, to consider what he could do
to better Ida situation.
On the beach, a short distance from
he more than half expected to behold
some unearthly visitant. He was not a
little relieved, therefore^ to see an object
looking very much like a mortal man
walking along the shore. When the man
turned toward Hie gan again, General
drew back his head tortoise-like and slid
down into the cavernous depths. He
heard the foot steps coming nearer and
nearer. Now he was sure the man was
leaning against the gun.
Again there was that strange sound, but
this time General rightly guesed it to be
only the tapping of fingers on the iron.
Soon he heard other steps on the sand,
and a voice said, "You, Jimf*
"Yes,” was the reply; "and no fun git-
tin’ here, neither.”.
Then followed a conversation, most of
which was too low for General’s ears.
‘I tell you ’taint safe,” at last he'
in louder tones. “There’s alios a
i there,”
General’s interest increased, and he
forgot the. desire to cough which had tor
mented him a moment previous. The
murmur of voices continued; but, though
he listened with all attention, it was
long before he distinguished any other
words. He judged from the sound of
the voices that the two men disagreed on
some point At last he was sure one of
them said:“Well, we’ll try t’other house.
There’s quite a parcel of people there,
and likely we’ll git something for our
trouble.”
‘Are you sure there aint no dog? asked
the other.
‘Yes, dead sure,” was the reply. Then
the men walked away, and General was
left alone once more. As soon as he
dared move, he put out ’'his head, and
lopked up and down the beatft.
All was quiet The neighboring
beacon made a broad, shining pathway
on the water; the lights on the ships in
the harbor glimmered faintly.
General tried, to compose himself for
another nap, but he could not help think
ing about what he had heard. He be
lieved that the men were planning to
break into some house, but where and
when he knew not
’Taint safe; dor’s alius a gyuard
he repeated. *‘Dat might mean de
hotel. ‘T’other place—quite a parcel ob
people—no dog.’”
General suddenly scrambled out of
,e gun upon the sand. It had occurred
him that “t’other place” must mean
Miss (Benson’s, where the pretty lady
lived whose words had so impressed him
a few days before.
“Dar’ll be a gyuard on dar, too, to
night,” he said, os he started off down
tho beach. "Reckon dey didn’t think a
gun had cars.”
The street was deserted, and all was
perfectly still as General crept noiselessly
along on his bare feet past the hotel to
ward Miss Benson’s.
It was a long, low building, lying near
the shore, and not far from the main
road. At first ho thought he would ring
the bell and give warning; but when he
reached tho door he changed his mind.
This might not, after all, be the house
the men were talking about; and, even
if it were, who would believe his story?
No, be must watch and wait for further
developments. He withdrew, and sat
down on the ground behind some shrub
bery. As time passed on aud nothing
happened to break the monotony of his
vigal, his excitement subsided, and he
began to f?ol sleepy.
General was just thinking it was all
foolishness oft lus part, and that he might
as well lie down under the shrubbery and
take a nap, when a dark form glided
through the yard, and disappeared round
the corner of the house. It looked like
a man with a pack on his back.
General crept" out of the shrubbery,
and stole softly after him, keeping close
to the wall of the house. His plan w
ring the door bell loud and long, os
as he discovered anything amiss; but he
would not do that till he was sure there
was cause for alarm.
General followed him quietly at a safe
distance. Once the man stopped sud
denly and looked back as if he heard
something. With beating heart, General
pressed close against the wall and stood
motionless until the stranger passed on
again. He turned another corner which
brought him on the side toward the
water, laid down his mysterious burden,
and walked toward the shore, where
there was a small wharf to which two or
three rowboats were fastened. Here
another man joined him.
He, too, carried something, which the
first took from him, and, after a few
whispered words, brought to the same
place where he had left his own bundle.
General’s interest was now much
greater than his alarm. He could not see
that the men were doing any harm. Why
did they not try a door or window, if
they wished to commit robbery?
Yet there was something about their
conduct that he did not understand.
They evidently did not wish to be seen
or h^ard, and General bad his suspicions
that it would go hard with him were he
Us voice, if heard, was not heeded. At
last, the more subdued tones and slower
movements indicated that all danger was
er.
Day was beginning to dawn when the
shed door vras opened, and General was
summoned forth, to confront, tho crowd
of men and boys who bad assembled at
the alarm.
Perhaps he ought to have looked nobly
heroic and confident in the consciousness
of innocence; bat candor compels the
admission that, as he stood there in his
ragged coat, the discouragement and
misery in his face and attitude might
have been mistaken for the evidence of
guilt.
"Why, it’sMoee Stubbs’s boyl” ex
claimed a bystander. "I alius knew
they was a low-down fam’ly; but I
didn’t s’pose none of’em would do such
a thing.”
"You all avoided a mighty narrer-
escape,” said another, in tones which
General fancied had a familiar harshness.
"If I hadn’t ’a’ seen the fire jest as I did,
nothing wouldn’t ’a* saved yer.”
"Why, General, is this you?” ex
claimed a surprised voice, lt was the
pretty lady, who with others had just
advanced to look at the supposed in
cendiary.
"Yes, miss, that’s the boy that set the
fire,” replied the former speaker.
"No, miss, please miss, I never done
it,” pleaded the lad, as he met the dis
tressed, pitying eyes of the lady. "I
was trying to ’stinguish it.”
"How came you here at that time of
night?” demanded one of the men.
~ General looked at his accuser in a con
fused, timid manner and made no reply.
The pretty lady saw tliat he was
frightened, and stepping closer to him,
said, kindly: 4 ‘Idon’t believe you did it,
General. You’ll tell me the whole truth,
will you not?”
Thus encouraged, and aided by many
questions. General related the whole
story of the night. When the narrative
was finished, the man who had been so
loud in his accusations was missing. He
had said something about being in a
hurry to get to his work, and had hur
ried away.
General’s tale was not at first received
with confidence by all his hearers. Some
of them even doubted the possibility of
his getting into the gun; but that objec
tion was easily removed by his repeating
tho manoeuvre in the presence of wit-
The sudden aisappearance of
his accuser, who was never seen again ’
that region, was another point in 1
favor, and when the last suspicion w
cleared away, General found himsdlf t

ment. Into 'this he crawled, feet fore
most, and found to lus saisfaction that it
afforded, protection from the wind, and
vras, therefore, wanner than his bed on
the sand. To be sore, it was rather hard,
and there was not much room in which
to move about; but neither was there at
home with five in a bed. He felt rathdr
lonely, and would willingly have ex
changed the sound of the surf for the
sociable snoring to which he in* accus
tomed; but none of these considerations
kept him awake long.
It was nearly midnight when he was
startled out of a sound sleep by a strange
noise dose to his head, as if someone
His heart
were pounding on the gun. His heart
beat furiously, and he turned cold with
fear. The sound ceased after a time, and
ho heard footsteps on the sand.
Genera!, like most of his race was a firm
believer in ghosts, and as he peered cau
tiously forth from tho mouth of the gun,
discovered.
There was a large tree a few yards dis
tant, which he thought would afford a
safe retreat; buthe-dared not cross the
open space between, lest one of the men
should see him. So he lay flat on the
ground close to the house, where he could
peer around tha corner to see what was
going on.
"He’s gwine ter hab a smoke,” said
General to himself, as he saw the man
next to the house shading a lighted match
with his hand. The next minute lurid
flames were shooting up from a pile of
material piled against the house.
The incendiary turned and ran swiftly
toward the shore; but not before he had
disclosed a frightful, masked face.
General was speechless with horror,
but only for an instant; the next mo
ment his loud cry of 44 Fire! fire I” rang
out upon the startled air.
There was a sound of opening windows,
of confused and frightened voices, and of
■* ’ ■ feet. General ran for ”
:et which he saw lying
ground, and was just starting with it
toward the well when he was rudely
shaken by the collfr, and heard a voice
say: 44 What are yon doing here. I’ll
teach you to set fires to burn ap folks in
their beds, yon black rascal 1”
" I—I—I never d-d-done it,” said Gen
eral, his teeth chattering with the shak
ing and terror. "L-l-let me go!” He
tried in vain to tear himself from the
powerful grasp of his accuser.
"Fll let you go—to jail, as soon as
there’s a chance,” replied the man, as he
poshed General into a small shed, and
closed the door.
There was but one window to the
shed, and that was near the roof, too
high for W»n to think of reaching. He
flung himself against the door again and
again; bat it had been securely fastened
on the outside.
"Sin an’ignorance done conquer dis
time, sho’ miff,” soliliquh
mournfully. He felt that - there was
small chance of his story-being believed.
The pretty lady whom he had meant to
serve would think that he set the fire.
As the sound of the hurry and con
fusion without increased, a new fear
came to him. Perhaps the house would
burn down, and the shed would catch
fire, and he would be left to perish in the
flames. He shouted several times; but

A Laundry Hint.
A housekeeper writes to the Congrega-
tionaliit to do your washing by this plan:
44 Fill the boiler two-thirds full of water,
and shave a bar of .soap in it. When the
water boils and the soap is disol ved; add
two tablespoonfuls and a half of kerosene
oiL It will immediately unite with the
soap, and, if you have been exact with
the amount of each, there will bo
on the top of the water. Now put tlie
cleanest pieces, like table-cloths aqd nap
kins, without previous soaking or wet
ting, loosely into the water. - Do not put
too many pieces in at a time. Boil hard
lor ten minutes, then rinse through two
waters and hang out to dry. Put more
pieces in the same boiler. Examine the
articles of clothing after they are taken
out, and, if not too roughly cleansed, put
them back in the boiler for another ten
minutes, or else rub lightly.
If the wasluug is very large, there
should be a renewal of the soap and oil,
but for an ordinary washing once is
enough. In an hour and a half the work
is all done for a family of six persons.
The clothes are white as snow, and there
is not the wear and teal- of clothiug by
rubbing; above all, there is not the’wear
and tear of nerves.”
Reccfpes.
Cream Sauce.—Melt three ounces of
butter; add flour to thicken with half
pint of cream! season with pepper and
salt; let it boil and-serve with chicken,
veal or sweet bread.
Baked Beets.—Wash a half- dozen
smooth beets and bake them- in a moder
ate oven for one hour; rub off the skins,
baste them with butter and lemon juice,
return to the oven for five minutes.
Haricot Mutton.—Make a good gravy
by boiling the trimmings, seasoning with
peppei and salt, Strain, odd carrots,
parsnips and onions previously boiled
tender. Slice them in, then pepper and
salt the mutton, boil it brown, put it into
the gravy along with the vegetables and
stew aU together.
Ginger Snaps.—Mix one pound of
flour and three-quarters of a pound of
white sugar. Rub into it half a pound
of butter, two egg3 well beaten, and an
ounce of ginger ground fine. Beat well
together, roll out the dough to the third
of an inch thick, cut out the cakes and
bake them. These are far superior to
ordinary ginger snaps.
A Pie for Dyspeptics.—Four table
spoonfuls of oatmeal to l one pint of
