Ho stooped for the kindling wood, and on rining, lii* heaver hat fell from his head; he ascer tained tho cause, which was that it had Jhtouio entangled iu a uiesh of spider'* web; this enraged him, and ho dropped tho kindling, and, while pulling the web from hia hat, exokiimed,— “Hung the spiders!

Henry said nothing more, but folded bis until, looking the pioturo of distress. “Come in I” said he, in answer to a i iumous at the door. “How are yon, Henry? You loi>U tronbted. Lost a friend ?" The speaker was a t.‘dl dark man; and' his name was Joe Thompson.. • T have lost throe friends. ” And Hen ry wont on tO'lfclsto bis misfortunes to his visitor, who lhwgitod heartily at Mm end of the narration. “Well, don't despond old fellow- -the lot of an old bachelor is a bunk one. 1 Imve cume to sup with you, ami I w ill lielp you get supper." Off went his cost, and in a short time Mie evening meal was upon the table.

She was SVit beauti ful, but— “Tnst sufcfi a Woman as I lmvo dreamed about," mused otbr hero, ou receiving au introduction. A conversation on different topics fol lowed, then Joe oxcluimed, — "I heard that you and the widower were to ho married, Miss Mollio; shall I credit the report ? w "Jly no means 1 In fart yon astonish me !

All 1 money' earned by my bands would be mine, or there would be a jar in the family, sure," said 'Mollio, with a toss of the head. Joe indulged iu a hearty laugh, and at the same Mute gave Henry a nudge Wit® the enne, ns much as to-sav, “Now is yonr time." “Fearing Nolly will think I am lost iu the snow storttg F Willi relieve her anxiety liy bidding you both good night,” said Joe, aloud; and ho board and left, the room. As soon a there was no third per son present, Henry made good use of his time. He forgot tliut he wns an old bnch elor, forgot the piles of gold aud tjilvor that lay in the musty chest, forgot the oggrovuting Jettie, forgot everything but the cheerful woman before him. Henry's visits to the cottage were fre quent, and the consequence vie tlwit in six weeks Miss Mol lie May (h hl-waa made Mrs. Heniy Woodson. Fifteen mouths passed rapidly by, and one evening Henry Woodson returned from business iu a-great burry. On en | tering the room,lie said,— 1 "1 say, Mollie dear, have a nice supper this evening; two of mir old friends will lm lwo.” “Who are tliey 7" queried tho wife, anxiously. “foe and Nelly; yon know they have been gone to tlielr old Southern home ton months or more, and have just arrived.

Have them on at supper.” “Noitoacnse 1 That’s tom foolery—-I don't want them.” “Yon ronst wear them; they are liecom ing to you, and make you look ao young. ” Henry hud laid his pasaiou for gold, ami iu this new mid happy life he could not do enough for Ills wife. He studied all her Hauls, and likewise gratified them. In a few hour*, tlio circle of friends were ftcattxl around tho supportable, where fried ham and cliickcp, fresh rolls and hat ter, mid honey of golden hue, did credit to the housekeeper The alienee waa broken by Joe, who related tho story nbout Henry's domestic troubles the evening he started him upon Ilia first love aflitir. At the end of hia narration, a faint, ory issued from the trundle lied. Joe, shirting in hia chair, said, — “fs Unit .fettle 7” “No, It’s our little Iluby,” exclaimed HeWry, the doting father, who brought the three mouths old bills: to the tuble, talking all kinds of baby talk. “Do you find married life expensive, .Usury r “I ai.i contented, Jim, fcpli'd Henry.” Ho we will drop the curtain, reador, over this liappy domestic scencc, and leave them in the embrace of uninterrupt ed happiness. Idol-Breaking. There Ims never la-on a time in the j history of the world when there Ims been j so much Idol-breaking as at tho present j day. Not, indeed, the stone and woodett ; idols of the heathen, hut sileh as are man ifested iu that blind worship which clothes a man with attributes far beyond what he deserves, or conld honestly elaini if left to depend upon real merit. We have find heroes financial, heroes political, mid heroes clerical, who have \ been looked up to with profound awe by ! their loopectivo circles of worshippers and adorers. In flounce, the plain principle* of honesty have been set aside, and great wealth, at whatever hazard, has been the only thing striven for; and when a man has shown extraordinary ability in so manipulating stock* of railroads and other corporations, sound or unsound, as to get possession of a largo amount of other people's money, his exploits have filled tho newsimjiers, mid have druwn about him a circle <rf sycophants and servile worshippers who huvo clothed him witli extraordinary fltmnetid talent*. They euniKit ileny that genoro is fellow lhal he Was he had tnrtied just u little out of the plain path of right; “hut then," say these Worshippers, “his operations were so grand 1 To get control of a railroad, or to create millions of slock, is none of your common crimes. I only wish I were such n financier 1” And so this fellow, and a thousand like him, fall down and worship the plundering adventurer. In polities, there has been, for ft long ' period of years, a strong tending to hero worship. There is, it must lie confessed, something attractive anil cveu fascinating in the iahsmanic career Of the sneoeseffrl politician. Once he lift* arrived, no matter by what road, to the dignity of licing called a “statesman” ho ha* his company of Worshippers, who gather about him anil defend him, nt all linxnWfa, through thick and thin. Formerly, when there was no telegraph, and the news paper press was a weak, ono-horsc affair, this political idol could lie borne onward for serve* of years, perhaps for a life time, on the wave of jsipular favor, and go down to his grave worshipped as • po litical saint, wltou iu reality his whole life had lmen one of trickery and deception, and political jugglery. 77*** however,- it matters not trrw sWseossftißy the pofffieian has rid Won on the topmost wave of po litical favor, nOr bow many worshippers hang upon his utterances, if he be a fraud,it is bound to lieeomc known, nud the fact is flashed over tlio wires, and is spread out in tho newspapers to the gaze of forty mlllioiis of people. It is nows—“only this and nothing more” but this news breaks the spell, and our “statesman" is found, upon investigation, to have been deep in jobs,” “Credit Mobiliors,” "Subsidies,” “Indian Swindles,” “District Ringn," and political eliicanery of all kinds.- Our “statesman." is ft statesman no more. His worshippers disappear as If by magic, and he is buried past redemption iw political ruin, and may consickr himself fortunate if he do not pass his declining years be hind the prison liars. The telegraph and the press have given the facts in his case to' tiie whole nation-, ami' they have found him guilty. Woe to him- forever Mure ! He is only a political idol smashed into forty million pieces, aud scattered to the wiuds of iufnmy. Again there is a w hisper that there is a whited sepulchre in the church. The ever alert “representatives of the press” visit the church, and move about among the deacons and the humbler purishiouers. They go even to the sepulchre itself, tliey tloisip upon it, and they slap the staid deaeons familiarly ou the hack, and direct ly is flashed over the wires, “Something hollow here 1” If that sepulchre is full of dead men’s lames, the reporters rattle them wt Ik They knock them about like I so many pins iw a bowling alley; and-all j the deacons iu Christendom can’t stop ; their clatter. To tho newspaper it is only 1 news to be set before millions of readers, j These are the jury wlio hike the facts, analyze them, uiiil make up their decision. ! If “guilty,” it is only another idol dashed ! to atoms, only another little coterie of worshippers weeping over the fragments of their broken god. We do not believe there is at present, ! more of this sort of idol worship than 1 there has been in times post; but there is ; a great deal rnoro idol-breaking than ever : la-lore. Witli the telegraph and the news- 1 1 wiper proas, a false god, whether flnuu \ eiul, political or religions, is soouer or later stripped of it* gilding, taken to pieces and shown up iu all it* deformity and hollowness. But it must be remem bered that with the facts of a case before them, the great jury-public generally, get at the truth, and that their decision, how ever crushing it may lie to the gnilty, is in the main, marvellously just.—Owr Fire Side Friend, [From the Loot© file Courier-Journal.} The Civil War in Kentucky. The little nrtny from Louisville has ar rived In Lancaster, and the war lias dwindled to pursuit of fleeing negroes and whites. Heifers, Hep., and Kennedy, Dem., the prominent gentlemen for whom the fight seem* to have lieen made, do not appear to have figured eonapienonsly in it, *nd are probably both safe. The proclamation of Judge Owsley, backed ly the bayonet* of the State troops is likely to have a quieting effect, aud it is scarcely probable that there will be any further trouble. This state of affairs is much iliffereut from that of Friday, when re-inforeo menta for the Kennedy party had arrived, and the Hellers jiarty, armed witli Spencer rifles, hud intrenched themselves; when the United Htati-s troops had been fired on by both parties and liad retired in dis gust; and when tie© forlorn hope of an armed “ieace port*” bad established it-1 •elf in a corner building of the public square liotween the belligerents. This remarkable little war began last Wednesday night, when as Esquire Fred. Yeakey, a relative of Kennedy, was cross ing the square, a volley was fired at him from lieliuid an old ruin. Boas Smith, a colored Democrat, who was with him, fell, shot in the groin. I>r. Bnrdett, while going to Smith's assistance, waa shot iu tho leg. A brother of Kenney’s was wounded about the same time, as he stood in the door of a hotel, and Oeorge Orffln, white boy, was struck in the leg by a bullet. While Dr. Burdctt was being carried away he was again Wounded, this time in the side. Noajrty the whole of tin next night Kennedy’s house was fired into, and an attempt wo* made to hum it. l Enquire Fred. Yeakey was again fired on, ! and was slightly wtmuded, and a spent bull that flew into Kennedy's lioiise wonnded Kennedy'* son, * boy nine years of age. These iiermma, and perhaps twu | or tiiree others, make up the list of wound : ed. Saturday night Hellers’ house was ; burned and three negroes are reported to have lieen burned with it. Besides these three, but trhc negro lost his life timing nil the firing that has occurred. The origin of the Whole trouble is traced to an old grudge between Heller* and Keuneily, which was renewed in the best of the lust election. LATER. Hardly has the smoko begun to clear away at Lauuaatcr before another enll for Help comes from Gov. Lffidie, and moro State troops are inarched away. Monte rey, Owen county, is the new He it of war. One of a posse guarding the Coun ty Attorney ha* been killed, and the rest narrowly escaping with their lives.— Further trouble seems imminent, and tho militia will lie ou the grouuil to-ilay, —#* i An English Execution, On the 10th mist., at eight (/dock, Tliomaa Macdonald was hsngod within the Devon futility Jail at, Exeter, for the murder of Bridget Welsh, nt Plymouth. | The convict was only thirty-five years of age, ami had Iteen discharged from tlio ltoyal Marines. Ho then wont to live with Welsh, who was a married woman with a family of children, Imt separated from her httslmird. Upon tho evening of July 5W he violently ftimftnlted the woman, and at noon tlio nest day both Mac donald aud Welsh were found in the lodgings they occupied, stretched out upon the floor, apparently dead; but flits #ss not the aa*e, only with the latter, for, al though the mnn s throat was eut, he was but insensilde nud waa restored and cured. Ou the table ol the room there were two letters, which he had wrtttan—one liefore nud one after the deed. Theta letters were, as the learned judge described them', • “teixture of ignoruuce and religion.” In the first the prisuor idleced that the wo man had been unfaithful to him, sml ex pressed his intention of killing her. In tho second he stated that ho , had killed her, but he hoped thatjlhey would meet in Heaveu, amt he trusted ’ that her fate would bo * (tattling to other women not to “try s man too tar.” He requested that bis property (uear LJO) might be drfrdod among the poor of Stonebonae, and he also mentioned a sum to be paid to the Romnu Catholic priest for musses for the souls of the woman and himself, dt the trial a defense of insanity was no ev idence to support this, and almost with out a moment's hesitation the jury found the prißbi Ar guilty. Since his conviction the coWdemed mnn | has appeared to bo quite resigned to his ; fate, and the moroseness wdiioh distiu j guished him at the trial passed away al i most immediately afterwards. He has beCA very attentive to the ministrations of the Roman' Catholic priest, the Rev. Father Hobson. Cnlcraft was the exftntfoAer, but he brought an assistant with him. The pris oner has, ever since his sentence, express ed himself prepared for his fate, and ban during the mteyval conducted himself in a very becoming manner, and expressed himself perfectly satisfied with the justice of his sentenoe. It is behoved that Mac donald is a feigned name, as no inquirires have been by any relative since he has been in jail, The convict hh'ftSelf stated that he had a father and mother living, and they were in good circumstances, but he would rather die a hundred deaths than they should hear of the end that hail overtaken him. Ou tlio night of the 9th lie slept well for between six and seven hours, and got up and dressed about Imif past & o’ckwk in the morning. An hour afterward he received the priest in bis cell, and the reverend gentleman remained with him nntll hia death. The prisoner walked firmly to tho scaffold, but .fast as tlio priest was leaving the platform 1 , the con vict fell bock into tho arms of Caleraft’s assistant; simnltanceonaTy, however, the diop Reft, nd the culprit appeared to die tu once.— Ee. — A young man who had spent a Nftle Of bis own time and a great deal of his father's money iu titling for tho bar, was asked, after his examination, how ho got along. “Oh, well enough-,” said he; ‘"'l answered one question right" “Ah, indeed !” said tlie old gentleman, with looks of paternal satisfaction at his son’s peculiar smartness; "and What was it V” '•They asked me wlmt a quf fan* action was." “That was a hard one, and vou answered it correctly, did you 7” “Yes; I told them I did not know.” We ore noxiously waiting for Lent to come again, having oouvmeed onr mother in-law that all good Christians ought .to fast forty days.
