her eyes alighted on the bell line
and she asked the water boy who
happened to be passing at the time
what it was for. ‘That, marm’,’
said the boy, with a twinkle of bis
eye, ‘la to ring the bell when you
want anyth ng to eat,’ and passed
on. Shortly after the old lady
got down the family umbrella and
reaching up tj the hell line gave a
vigorous puli. Os course the

How Hull Hun Looks To-day.
Although many Americans Hre
fami liar with the b ttle fields of
Waterloo few know anything'ahoot
our own battle fie ds. A Mr. Mil
lar, wtio has writen some poetry,
visited Bull Run aud says:
Tue first battle of Bull Run
stands fir-tin the alphabet of gr--at
Americans cattles. Greater bat
tles have been fought her abouts;
a greater battle, indeed, on this
sam; ground. But the first has
fastened itself on us. There is a
savage fascination about it which
we who lived on that day cannot
escape. And yet it was cot yes
terday. I saw lounging against a
limp-post here at Manassas, not
an hour ago, a handsome ycung
Southerner pulling at his mus
tache. I approached and asked
limos the battle. He had been
bora since it was fought. So veu
see it was not fought yesterday,
this battle of Bull Ren, win n the
cannou slio-ik the earth even to the
shores of Oregon. And do you
know the North played the air of
‘Dixie’ in this first battle? It is bo.
The South had not yet. learned it,
but played ‘The Girl I Left Behind
Me.’ Let ue look in upon this
hatth field as we look upon the
face of one whom we knew well
nearly a quarter of a century ago.
By a wide, well kopt eountry road,
through corn-fields and clump -of
oak, chestnut, hickory and half a
dozen other kinds of scrub trees,
some of them badly shot to pieces,
ws were driven toward the muddy,
sluggish,crooked and ugly little
striam of Bull Run. In this drive
of four miles we met one man on
horseback: we passed one man on
a horse and a barefoot negro boy on
foot, driving a little flock of sheep.
Overhead 1 saw a singlerayen; not
a bird, not a squirrel on either
hand; but the crickets and grass
hoppers in ;he corn fields and
clumps of wood on either side of us
chirped and sarg incessantly.
At the end of four miles we turn
ed through a gate to the right into
a field; cows '.were scattered here
and there around the crescent of
the hill; on the crest of the hill
stood along, trarne firm house;
back of this house a little brown
stone monument to the dead sol
diers; in front of it, in the door
yard, a gravestone. The house
which formerly stood here had
been torn to splioiers during the
battle, The lady buried in the
grave in the dooryard was killed
here. She was the mother of the
kind old gentleman who now in
herits this place. This battlefield
was his mothers farm. It is now
his,-and he shows you over it. He
was teaching school down at Alex
andria at the time his mother was
killed hero—a school teacher for
forty ye*rs. He and his sister live
in this old gray house together;
no one but these two old deaf peo
ple for many a mile about. The
peach trees aie breaking down un
der loads of fruit in the heart of
the battlefield, a little way down
on the slope of the hill below the
grave in the dooryard. Long
strings of fat tu-keys tread the lan
gled grass through the orchard,
chasing the grasshoppers. Below
this orchard, half a mile away and
curving around in a muddy Cre
scent, but hidden by a young
growth of trees, creeps Bull Run.
On the morning of the battle, the
broad cornfields on the other side
and away cut yonder, miles away
over the foothills, the Federal bay
onets gleamed by tboussnds. They
were marching for B
rear, or rather for the Midland lire
by which he had come up from the
South. He had rome up from Ma
nassas four miles away, to stop
this' movement, as all the woild
knows. The North was not to be
stopped 1 . Hence the battle here.
But this is trench in ?on history,
and we must draw the line. You
can see where the South retreated
to where stood Jackson, “like a
stone wall.” Back of this house,
where the old school master lives
with his oldest sister, about a hun
dred yards and almost at the top
of the gently sloping hill, on the'
cuter edge of the t il' rack corn,
atd agaiist a young growth of
pines, is ibe place where Jackson
,g> t‘ down to pray. And here it was
he sat on his horse was wounded,
heit d his men in stubborn line tli t
day, while the atortn ol battle heat
against them, and so won his sin
gular name. On the front of this
sloping hill that lies hero, between
this house and the place wbsie
Jackson sat on his horseduring the
battle tt e <i-ad lay thickest when
the fight was done. Toe corn is
rank and tall. But Ido not see. as
some p ettnd to, when looking ov
er the fi.-Id of Waterloo, that the
blood of brave men has put any
I ar'icular mark of vitality upon it
Toe truth is, if some one did not
point out to you all this you would
know nothing whatever of the bat
tle of Bull Run. Nature covers up
all such scars; time heals the
wounds on the breasts of our com
mon mother, as Wrll ns our own.

Rev. It B ll< addon was regul rly
installed pastor of ti e Bap i-t
Church at the city Hall Sunday
night, under most pleasant auspi
ce*. A' the invirtstion of Itev. G
A Nunally, Rev. Mr. Anderson, of
the Methodist Church, ar.d Dr.
Gwaltney, of Shorter C.dleg",
were piesentand occupied seats in
in the pulpit. And the new pastor
was welcomed by a large audit nee,
representing every dennminati n
in the city. Mr. II adden, in a
sermon ot fifty minutes long, held
the undivided attention of the en
tire congregation. It was an able
effort, and Dr. Headden is a grace
ful and earnest speaker.
At the conclusion of his sermon,
Rev. Mr. Anderson arose and in a
few we'l-limed remarks welcomed
the new comer to Rome, and in a
behalf of all Christians wished
him Gtid-ppeed in his new field of
labor. Dr. Gwaltney folowei wilh
kind words for all. He revi wed
the past career i f the church pay
ing an eloquent tribute of loye to
the memory of former pastors until
he came to the one now retiring—
Itev G A Nunnailp—when he
said, in a voice trembling with
emotion, “And we love lorn, 100 ”
The expreseion was eloquence in
its last analysis, because of its
touching sympl'citv. •
Mr. Nunnally followed in a few
remarks bespeaking the love and
ronfidence of the people of Rome
for the new pastor, and in conclu
ding said : “I shall not say fare
well, for I will still <laim Rome as
my home and will be in your
midst. I don’t know, but it may
be that when the last slow process
ion is formed it will Wind its way
to Myrtle Hill Cemetery and I will
lie down to rest over there.”— Home

A Log Cabin In Washington.
Joaquin Miller has purchased a
lot on the bights north of Wash

on a log cabin, a fao-simile of that
in which he speDt his younger
days. Its floor is to be covered
with skins and furs, trophies cf h s
Rocky Mountain bunts. Its walls
are to be hung with bows, arrows,
rifles, wainpum—in a word’ all
sorts of relics of his long sojourne
among the ModoCe. His bed is to
be a grass hammock, and his wri

TIIE STAGE COACH KOBUERS.
What tlie Passenger With One Eye Did.
There was an army officer, asiu
ler, a surveyor and two men who
might have been mine inspectors,
in the stage when it drew up at
Iluit Hill to take on ano'her pas
sengir.
‘‘Howdy," said the new passen
ger as he crowded in.
As he stood for a moment in the
right of a station lamp, all saw Hist
his left eye was gone. He wore ro
shade or patch to conceal the loss,
and those who gave him a second
look felt iluit the fire in that ie
maining eye was bright enough to
answer for two. Dark as it was in
the stage he seemed to have “sized
up” every man inside of a minute,
and, seeming to be satisfied regard
ing tho crowd, he settled himself
back in his seat, and had no re
markff to make. By and by the
army officer mentioned something
about road agents, and directly the
conversation became interesting.
Coaches had been stopped at vari
ous points on the line within a
week, and it was pretty generally
believed that a had gang had de
scended on the route and were still
ripnfoh hOsincss. The man with
one eye had nothing to say. Once
or twice he raised his head and that
single eye blazed in the darkness
like a lone star, hut hot a word es
caped his mouth. The captain
had said what Fie wou ! d do in case
ihe co:eh was halted, und thia
bringht out the others. It was
firmly decided to fight; The pas
sengeis had money to fight for and
weapons to fight with.
The man with one eye said noth
ing. At such a time, and under
such circumstances I here could be
hut one interpretation of such con
duct.
“A coward has no business trav
fcling this route,” said the capiain
in a voice which eyery mart could
hear.
The stranger started up, ahd that
eye of hie seemed to shower sparks
of fire, but after a moment he fell
back again without haying replied.
If he wasn’t chicken-hearted,
Why didn’t he show his colors ? If
he intended to fight where were his
Weapons? He had no Winchester,
and so far as any one had seen ns
he entered the coach he was with
out tevolvefs. Everybody f*lt a
contempt for a man Who calculated
to hold up his hands at the order
and permit himself to be quietly
despoiled.
“Pop! pop I halt!”
“The passengers were dozing as
the salute of the road agents reach
ed their oar*. The coach was hal
ted in away to tumble everybody
togeilii-r, »r d legs and bodies wer
still tangl’d rp when a voice at
tlif door ot the coach called out:
‘ No nnni-iuse. now ! You gent e
mt-n i. rills'right do -n here and' up
NO. 17.
with your hand 1 The first man
who kicks on me will get a bullet
t'-rough his head 1”
We had agreed to fight. The
captain had agreed to lead us. We
were listening for his yell of difi
ance and llie click of his revolver
when he stepped down at d out na
humbly as you please. Tue sutler
Ins been aching to chew up a d-z
--en mad agents, ai d now be was
ti e second man out. The suivey
or had iniiimi'ed that he never
passed over the mute w ithout h ill -
ii g at least three highwaymen, but
this occasion was to be an excep
tion. In three minutes the five of
us w*re down and in line nn<l
hinds up, aud the road agent had
said :
“Straight matter of hhaineasf
First one who drops his hands
W 'U’teyer know what hurt him!”
Where w:is ti e mnn with the one
eve? The robber appeared to be
lieve that we wi re all out, and he
Wasj”at approaching the head ot
the lino to begin his work when «
dark fmm dropped cut of th" coach,
there was u yell as if from a woun
ded tiger, and a revolver began to
crack. The robber Wbnt down at
tie first pop. His partner wnsjuit
coining around the rear of tho
couch. H" was a game man. He
knew what hai happened, but he
was coming to the rrscue. Pop I
pop l pop I wont the revolvers,
their flushes lighting up the night
until we could see tho driver ih his
scat.
It didn't tuke twenty seconds.
One of the robbers lay dead ih
front of us—the other under the
coach, w-hi’e the man with the one
eye had a lock cut from his head
and the graze of a bullet across his
cheek. Not one ol us lad moved
a finger. We were five Lola in a
row. There was a painful 101 l aftei
the last abut, and it lusted a full
minute before the stranger turned
to us and remarked in a quiet cut
ting manner r
‘ Goutlemen, ye kin drop yer
hands F
We dropped. We unrfertohk to
thank him, and we wanted to shake
hands, and somebody suggested a
shake purse for his benefit, but he
motioned us into the coach, bung
ed the door after os, and climbed
up to a seat oeside the driver. His
corit-. inpt for such a crowd could
not be measured.—M. Quad in

The Red of as Eastern Prince;
Borne time last year there was a
wooden beadetead manufactured
whicn was intendid for the tfse of
the King of Siam. It was fourteen
feet wide und divided into three
parts, the .center part being faited
about eighteen inches. This piece
of furniture, being pf such unusual
dimensions, caused a slight sensa
tion among all tbosq who were
permitted to examine it. But the
beadstead made in Paris la*e!y for
un Iml iun prince would draw thou
sands to see it were it exhibited in
New York, even if fancy prices
we;C charged sos admission. The
bcadstcitd is partly made Os real sil
ver, and cost many thousand# of
dollars. At each corner stands a'
beautifully modeled nude female
figure (hfesize) holding a delicately
Contracted fan. Each figure, it is
said, wears a wig of real hair. This
ia to be regularly “dressed” by tie
court barber once a week. On the
great potentate getting into bed
the weight of hie body sets certain
machinery in motion, the effect of
which is that so long as bis Royal
Hithness enjoys his horizontal' re
freshment the silver maidens gent
ly fan the sleeper. If the figures
at the foot of the bbd are required
to exert themselves in a like man
ner this car, be accomplished by
the aid of a cloak-like apparatus.
Moreover, should the dusky owner
of the bead wish to be lu’led to
slumbef by the dulcet sounds of
soft music, this can be done by
touching a spring. The bottom of
the b d dontaits a large musical
box which is so arranged that the
tunes can he loud or soft as de
sired.
