CaltohcFis independent. J. C. GALLAHKR, Editor. SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1874. TRUE THHOUtIH Ai/I* I r-*d an incident of the late war, which ay not inappropriately be called hero the ttoiy el the ring. It relate* to a circum- Mauce which occurred when the old medi cal college waa a military prison. A party of young men—six, I l>ehevt>—had been arrested somewhere in the interior of the Htate and brought to the city as prisoners of war. Months passed in weary confine ment. Exis-ctnUon and "hope deferred makes the heart nick,” and these men grew aary of their long imprisonment. At ** lk 7 concerted means for esonpe. They worked hopefully and waited patient ly. and the period of their deliverance came at last. An excavation under the walls and a bribed guard wits all there was of romantic interest in the flight, ltut af ter getting far away from the prison one of the fugitive* stopped short and an nounced lus iutentiou of returning. “HtHSain r* cried hi* companion, “why yon will tie taken. The guard have been changed ere this, and our escape no doubt discovered.” “True," he said, “but stilt I must ro- Vum.” Ho far the writer I intoned to the narra- tive as it wan related >by one of the fugi tives one night near the close of the war, in a quiet little house nestled among the Eoxiugtou hills. The narrator was the ntntre of a neene of gaiety and brightness, a village party, but one where culture and refinement was as notks-able as ia the most brilliant gatherings in the city. A lady sat near him listening eagerly to what he said. Kvqp after the lapse of so many vears 1 Cad conjure now the beautiful vis ion her memory recalls. A classic face, with great luminous eyes, and a figure ns faultless in contour and outline as the Modician Venus, The face was soil, oven in that scene of pleasure. The shadow of some grief, sorrow hung about hor life, and all the rosy hopes of her youth had fuded iu their bloom. I hail notici-d an evident constraint iu her manners, when during the evening she tins brought ill contact with Mr. W., one of the guest*. They appeared to mu tually avoid each other; or rather he re frained from paying attentions that he feared would be considered disagreeable. And yet gossips said they had onoe been lovers. “B ;t to return is death," I urged upon my friend, said tlio narrator. “You will be allot if taken.” “I know it," lie said, “but still I am go ing back. ” The words wero quietly spoken, but there was an inflexible determination in their tone which almost appalled me. I reasoned and remonstrated iu vain. I showed him the certuiuty of capture and the poosiblc death that awaited him. It produced no iai|ircasi“n. H listened to me quietly, sadly I thought, but his re solve was unalterable. “But why,” I asked, out of patience with his olistimicy, “will you ineur this risk ? What reason, what necessity is there in it ?" “I itm going bark for my ring,” lie said. At those words tlio eager -listening lady started visibly, and her face flushed sear fct link the narrator did not perceive it, and went On with his story. "What ring ?" I asked- "not that little gold circlet 1 saw yon wearing ?” “Yes," heaaid, "it was the gift of a dear friend. I laid it aside ns we wore working Under the wall, lest I should break it, and in tlie hnrry of escape I left it. We were scarcely outside the wall when I thought (M it. but I would not peril yonr escape by returning then. Now you are safe, and I go back for my ring. ” "But why peril your life for a trifle like that r "I told yon it waa the gift of a dear friend; a laity I It ia tlio pledge of my truth to her. If I lost or gave it away, she would held me foresworn. If she saw me without it, I should stand in her eyes a traitor. I took it on those conditions, and I must go back.” - There was no doubt of tho lady’s inter flat in the narrative now. Hl"' leaned for ward in her chair. Her whole sonl was absorbed in listening. Not a word, not an aeeeut escaped her strained and eager •amen My interest in the story had giv en place to my interest in tho lady. I nev es saw such intensity of feeling in my life. "I expostulated with him," continued the narrator;. "I ridiculed the idea; ‘what wakie is the ring ? Tell the lady yon lost it 1’ ‘Not so,’ Ho said, ‘she could then say I loved lilierty and personal fwedbm bet ter than tho gift she gave me.’” "And he returned ?‘‘ It was the lady who asked tho cpießtinn. Her voice was very low, and the inquiry •sue with a choking utterance. "Ha did, and served for his pains nine dreary months of imprisonment, a solitary captive, with ball ana chain.” "And tho ring," wo all demanded ea gerly. “Ho did not flud it." Kvcn as wc spoke, the lady ro-io from her sent am l passed across tie r,>om to Where Mr. W. was sitting. As quick as thought it dashed upon us; Blew* were tlio parties. I heart her say as she come close to his aide: "I did not expect- from you impossi bilities. You should have told mo the ■tory." The sad mask had dropped front her laae. Her eyes were full of tears but not of bitterness. It ia useless to tell of the happy wedding that easuod; of tho joy and merry-making of the guests. Our fair renders can ima gine that, Ami so ends the story of the ring. Tub Best Gif* or Gw —The boat gift of God to nations is the gift of upright men -especially upright men for magis tnites, stateraen sad rulers. How bounti ful soever the heavens may be; how rich the earth may be in harvests; though ev ery wind of heaven waft prosi>erity to its ports till the land is crowded w ith ware houses stuffed to nqilction with treasure, that country is poor whose citizens rr i not noble, and thst republic, in poor which is uot governed by noble men selected by its citizens. The sings of decay in the life of a t. - lion show themselves as soon ns anywhere ; els.- in ihe diameter of the men who are railed to govern it. When they seek their own ends, nnd not the public weal; when they abandon principles, ami administer according to tlie personal interest of fliiquTH, when they forsake righteousness and rail upon insatiable selfishness for counsel: and wbe the laws and the frame work of the government are hat so many instruments of oppression and of wrong, then the nation can not be far from decad ence. When God means to do well by a nation that has backslidden, among the earliest tokens of his benelloent intent is the restoration of men of integrity—men who live for their fellows, and not for themselves. — Ex. A highly intelligent ando o —the type-re - Ur LYNCH LAW IN MISSOURI How a Nurdrr wi Arcngrd In Bales County. The Bute* County (Mo.) Demarral, af ter giving the details of the murder of Constable Wilson by Duvid Hardy, whom ho had arrested for larceny, says: “But the deed was done anil the perpe trator had e*ea]>ed. What was to lie done ? It would not do to permit him to go entire ly free. The citizens of Osage Township were gathered together and the particular* elicited. They became infuriated when they remembered that Hardy had not only killed an officer in the discharge of his du ties, but hud returned and rifled his pock et*. Runners were sent to Rockville, to Butler, and to different points iu Bates and Varoou counties. Every shooting iron was resurrected, every avenue of es cape guarded. “Hcouting parties were sent out all dur ing the day from Butler aud the southern portion of the county, but his lurking place was not discovered. Finally, rather than fail, rather tlutu the monster should entirely iscujh-,, a reward of #I,OOO was of fered fur lii* body'dead of alive. Every clew was sought for and nothing left un done by the neighbors of the murdered of ficial to hunt Hardy down. “One R. I’. Buck, a brother-in-law to Hardy, hud seen the murderer, while on liis way to examine some trout lines on the Marais de Oygnes, accompanied by a little boy, a cousin of Hardy. Ho was already there when Hurdy came down upon them, uud one Jones, knowing not what hud been done, rowed Hardy iu a skiff aerosa the river. When reaching the other side he called to Buck to ‘tell his folks to have his clothes uu the Miami bridge at 12 o’clock that night, or, iu case he failed to got there, to send them to Harrison ville.’ The little boy acknowledged to his conver sation afterwards, and the crowd compell ed Buck to state the entire purtimibus. “A sipiud of six was immediately dis putclicd to llarrisonville, and Buck waa kept under guard until after dark, when another relative by the name of Mathew* was pressed into service with Buck, and some twenty others with Buck, and some twenty others with these two started for Miami bridge. Buck and Mathews, hav ing a sack of straw to represent clothes, were ordered to go on the bridge and whis tle for Hardy to make his appearance, while the others concealed themselves. Hardy, suspecting nothing, soon came out on the bridge. They told him they did not get all his clothes. He suid lie would go buck and get them himself. (He hud no idea that so many were aroused oft his truck.) While talking, the two, according to or ders, caught him and kept Ida arms and legs pinioned until the crowd came up, his gun failing at the very first. They carried him back to the school-house ut Rich Hill. “I‘ursuant to previous arrangement, gnus were tired at Rich Hill, giving notice to alOwlio could hear uud who were still on his trail that the murderer was caught. “In tho meantime, Hardy’s father had been arrested for aiding and übotting the murder, and woh at the seliiKil-liinise when lus son was brought. Supper was served to young llurdy, and he partook unspar ingly, laughed and talking all the while, as if lie considered it a joke. There were only a few iu the house, while tlie school house was surrounded by hundreds of men before an hour after it was known that he had been caught. Someone asked young Hurdy how lie liked pickle ? "Take that, and n yon,” hurling a large one at the head of the intern>mitor. ■ “We are informed that he had a trial on the outside of the scliool-honse. AVe can state no particulars as to what occurred at the trial. All that wo can state is that onr informant was iu tho school-house glean ing all he ootdd from the prisoner, who gave ns his reason for killing Wilson that no only did so to keep from being arrested. While the conversation continued, wit nesses were sworn and examined. Finally all liecttnie quiet, and one person eame in to tho school-house and told Hardy thut some ouo wanted to see him on the out side. He arose from liis seat and started out. The crowd hud started off with him when our informant went out, and he could hear Hardy singing iu a derisive tone: "Farewell, mother, you may never Press me to your hear again." "This was about day-break. What was done can only be judged from the result. His body wan" found next morning swing ing to an elm, about a mile from Hock Hm. “Thus In the space of twenty-four hours, were two souls sent into eternity. the mur derer and his victim. On the morning of tho 27th, the fatal shot was tired that rob bed tho life of an esteemed citizen of Os age Township, and tho subsequent morn ing found the porjietrator of the black deed standing in mid air. A Dka# DiJi’K.—Dickens tells the fol lowing story of an American sea captain who had on board a young lady of re markable personal attractions—a phrase I use as one lieiug entirely new, and one von never met with in the newspaper®. This young lady was beloved intensely by five young gentlemen passengers, aud in return she was m love with them all very ardently, but without any particular pref erence for either. Not knowing how to make her determination in this dilemma, she consulted my friend the captain. The captain being a man of an origiunl turn of mind, says to the young lady, "Jump over hoard an'd marry tlio man that jumps after you.” The young lady, struck with the idea, and being naturally fond of bathing, especially in warm weather, as it then was, took the advice of tho captain, who had a boat manned iu case of accident. Accord ingly, next morning the five lovers being on deck, and looking devotedly at tlio young lady, she plunged into the sea, head foremost. Four of the lovers imme diately jumped in after her. When the young lady aud her four lovers were got out again, she says to the captain, "What am Ito do with them now, they lire so wet?” Says the captain, “Taka the dry one !" Aud tho young liuly did, and she married him. • Strong Women—Sick Men.— Did it ever occur to the public, asks a Chicago paper, that women are getting entirely too healthy? It’s amazing what a little lecturing and ridicule, and consequent exercise and sensible clothing, have ao oomplished. Tho dauger now is that the women will become so entirely robust, and live to such astonishing nges, thnt they will gradually drive puny men out of exis tence. Go through any of the streets of Chicago and look at the faces and figures tee two sexes. Obseri e the sharp, th n visages, the spitulliug limbs, and the dys peptic countenances of three-fourths of i the men. They seem to have a yearning | disiro to lean up against something and think, and would, were they uot driven | l>y the demands of brininess to drag them selves on. The women, on the contrary, 1 are the pictures of good health and con tentment. They hare not yet thought to j scold and caution their husbands and sweetheart's against a ruinous style of 1 living; but the danger of a dearth of men will soon excite the fair sex to bold words i uopn this subject. THE FATE 0E TWO LOVERS. There are fine caverns ami recesses among the rocks; one pal ticnhirly, which we tis>k the opportunity of visiting yester ilay, a* it oun only be entered at the ebb of the sprflig tide*. It is very spacious, beautifully arched andcomtmsedof grnnite rocks finely veined with alabaster, which the imagination may easily form into as •eiublunco of a female figure and is, of course, the Nereid of the grotto. We wished to stay longer, but our friend hur ried us sway, lest the tide should rush in, which it is supposed to do from subter raneous caverns, as it fills before the tide covers the sand of the adjacent beach. I was particularly affected with the fate of j two lovers, (a young lady and gentleman from Clifton,) whose friends wore here for the sake of sea bathing. 'l’hey stole ont early one morning by themselves, and strolled along the liench till they came to this grotto, which being then empty, they entered. They admired the strata of rock* lead ing in different directions. They admired the incrustation which covers part of the sides, exactly resembling honey-comb; various shells imbeiled in the rock; the sea anemone spreading its purple frienge—an animal flower clinging to the rocks. They admired the first efforts of vegetation in the purple and green tints occasioned by the lichens and other mosses creeping over the bare stone. They admired these together; they loved each other more for having the same tastes; and they taught the echoes of the cavern to repeat the vows which they made of eternal con stancy. 11l the meantime the tide was coming in; of this they were aware, as I they now end then glanced their eyes on j the waves, which they aaw advancing at a distanc ■; imt, not knowing the peculiar nature of the cavern, they thought them selves safe; when on a sudden, as they were iti the farthest part of it, the waters I rushed In fro hi the flssnre* in the rock! with terrible roaring. They climbed from ’ ledge to ledge of the rook, butjin vain; the j waters rose impetuously, and at length filled the whole grotto. Their bodies j were found the next day, when the tide j was out, reclining ou a shelf of rock; he, in the tender attitude of supporting her in the very highest accessible part, and learn ing bis own head iu her hip, so that he; must have died first. Poor lovers!-- Mrs. llurbnuUl’s Life and Work*. THE GOLDEN A GE OX PL YMOUTII CHURCH. Nf.w Yoiik, .Tnly B.—The Golden Ago to morrow publishes the following editori al: Plymouth church hnsadopted the pol icy of silence. It has seen n cunning tissue of misrepresentation and insinuation, wo ven for the injury of one man and the protection of another, swept away at a single blow, leaving its artifice exposed to the public eye; mid yet, in the face of a universal demand for explanation, it holds its peace. It sees tho character of one whose good nume is bound to defend from every as persion brought on by grave and terrible suspicion; and while millions in agony of sympathy for him entreat it to o;ien its lips and speuk one assuring word, it per sistently holds its tongue. The fact speaks in trarnet tones. The American people ask for one word in behalf of a man they rovored and lovered more tlinu any other. One single syllable of assurance from the lips that have moved millions, and have s witchery of persuasiveness possessed by no other oil eutrh, would have satisfied them. There was a splendid occasion, und. there stood the man to fill it- with a voice which would have gone, like Eng land’s drum bout, round tho world. They listened in deathlike stillness, and were treated to a silence almost audible. Tho fuct admits only one construction, and whoever thinks draws tho inevitable conclusion. There is a silence more op pressive and ominous than that of death; The American people now know what thut silence is. a USUIAU COUPLES. What a study for the disinterested to watch the "hilling and cooing" of a new ly-married couple when they uro in a gushing mood. How lovingly iu the street or at a funeral she hangs upon his arm.

A QUMJOUS. DENOMINATION, There is n curious .religions denomina tion at the West called lhuikors, and they have just lmd their annual meeting at Gir ard, Illinois. They are German Baptists, and their present designation is a derisive one, from tho word Tunker, to sop, nud bestowed upon these people because, in baptizing, they first place the candidates j on their knees and then push them for-j ward into the water. They are truly pc- i culiar people. Their dress is very like j that of the Quakers; they never go to law; j they never contract debts outside their or- \ der; they never vote; they refuse to per- 1 form military duty; they are allowed to | wear full beards, but not moustaches only; they are forbidden to engage in tho busi ness of banking aud brokerage, as it leads to covetousness; they discourage all educa tion beyond what the common school can supply— We know that Adam, at his birth Waa good {he never went to college;) Bat wickedness came on tho earth By eathiu' of the tree of knowledge; they disapprove of farmers’ chilis, gran ges" and all secret societies; they condemn j the “ungodly piano" and ether musical instruments, and when two brothers meet they salute each other with the "holy kiss." They believe it nnseripturnl| to count their membership, but it is suppos ed to exceed 150,000. nnd they make kind neighbors aud thrifty citizens.— Boston Courier. -♦ A temperance orator speaks of “a file of ! topers, seventy-five miles iu length march j ing steadily to drunkards’ grains at the rate of three a minute or one eve y twenty seconds, ell tlio year round.” A BEE BTOR Y. The following illustration of the power IKissessed by insects to communicate their experiences to one another is given by a lady correapoudent of the Loudon Sfieeta j tor; “I was staying in the house of a ; gentlemen who was fond of trying experi ments, and also was a bee-keeper. Huv iug read in some book on bees that the best aud most humane way of taking the honey without deatroying the bees was to immerse the hive for a few minutes in a tub of cold water, When the bees, being half drowned, could not sting, while the honey was uninjured, since the water could not penetrate the closely waxed ; cells, he resolved on trying the plan. I saw tho recipe, were fished out of the wa ter after the hive had been immersed a few minutes and, with those remaining in the hive, laid on a sieve in the sun to dry ; Imt as, by bad management, the ex periment had been tried too lute in the day, as the sun was going down, they were removed into the kitchen, to the great indignation of the cook, on whom they revenged their sufferings as soon as the warm rays of the fire before which they were placed had revived them. As she insisted on their being taken away, they were put back into their old hive, which had been dried, together with a portion of their honey, aud placed on one of the shelves of the apiary, in which were five or six other stroDg lnves full of bees, and left for the night. Early the next morning my friend went to look at the hive on which ho experimented the night before, but, to liis amazement, not only the bees from that hive were gone, but the other hives were all deserted—not a bee remained iu any of them. The half-drowned lieeu must, therefore, in some way or other, have made the other bees nuiferstand the fate which awaited them.” COURTSHIP OF RAVAGES. Among the aboriginal blocks of Austra lia, courtship as the precursor of marriagij is unknown. When a young warrior is desirous of procuring u wife ho generally obtains one by giving in exchange for her a sister or some other female relative of his own; lint if there should happen to be no eligible damsel disengaged in the tribe to which he belongs, then he hovers around the encampment of some other blacks untill he gets an opportunity of s -izing one of their leubras, whom he has seen aud admired when attending one of the feasts of corrobories. His mode of playing his addressera in simple and efficacious. With a blow of a war club he stuns the object of his “affections,’ and as slit) recoveres her sense brings hor home to his own guuyali iu triniuph. Another method with wife-stealers is to ascertain the cump fire liethdes which tliegirl whom ne covets sleeps. When he gains the knowledge he require*, ho creeps close to the camp on some dark, windy night, and stretching ont his spear insert its barbed point among her thick, flowing locks, turning it slowly around, some of her hair becomes entangled? with a sml den ferk, she is aroused from her alnmlier aud us her eyes open ahe feels the point of another weapon pressed against her throat. She neither faints or screams. She knows well (hat the slightest attempt ut escape or alarm will cause her instant death; so like a sensible woman, she makes a virtue of necessity, and tiling silently, the follows her captor to begin a life of soil from which she is not released till death. ■a ■ I.istxn to this Fxnnow.—"Heart of flame, nerves of steel, quivering breath, surging from iron nostrils, paltitutiug throut of fust-flving w heels that urge for ward, in smooth rliyhtm, the vessel of matchless symmetry, whose graceful prow raises on high the sparkling water to fall with tlie murmur of a whispering foun tain, while from the tapering hull the riv er, with agitated crest, divides to mark the chosen pathway.
