BY OTIS A. MUBNtY.
CHAPTER III.
The next morning when I awoke, I
found myself In a narrow, dingy little
room that appeared to have formerly been
used as an enormous duet bin which, on
account of age, bad been abandoned, no
attempts being made lo remove the dust
that had accumulated in it from its former
uee. After I bad dre*sed, I bulled myself
in taking an inventory of the furniture in
the room. I found, besides the bed, a fine-
tooth comb minus the teeth, a cracked
looking-glass, a tin wasbpan and a cake of
■on e yellow substance that looked like
crystallized sand. The cracks in the Rlass
distributed the face of the unhappy indi*
vidual who looked in it o^er ita surface
with alarming irregularity. And,
upon lookirg in i% I saw
a month about three feet wide
surmounted by an Immense pair of eyes
and having the nose over ita left corner.
It was with some difficulty that I found
my chin at all, but I finally discovered it
in the upper part of the gists, where. In
company with my evebrows, it reposed in
solitary grandeur. I was making a dei-
perate search for my ear. when the Major
came in and interrupted me by asking
"how I slept."
“Finely/’ said I. “but where am I at? I
can remember being at Barnesville last
night, but 1 can't locate myaelf this morn-
ingl”
v * Why, filr,” the Major replied, “you are
In my surbnrban residence, about two
miles from town, healthy locality, fine
breeze, and." #ild he, aa he picked up the
yellow substance on the table, and a sud
den tho 'ght seemed to inspire him, “plen
ty of soap.”
“Is that soap?" we innocently asked.
“It ought to be soap, and,” said be, as
he again examined it carefully, “it is
soap.”
We thanked him for the information,
and were, in fact, teal glad 'hat he had in
formed us what it was. for we had had
about deter mined that it was a specimen of
an nnusally hard kind of rock.
“Breakfast is ready.” said the Major,
“bat before we go, remember, and ‘keep it
dark.’ 'Keep it dark.* ” said be in a hoarse
whisper that sounded like the buzzing of a
circular saw.
We a»ked him what particular incident
he wished us to draw the curtain of our
memory acres*.
“Don't tell the ole woman about that
whisky last night; in fact, be sure and—
keep it dark.”
We assured him that the event shonld be
ahrouded in Egyptian darkness, where-
npon hecondnctei ns to breakfast. We
were carried through the different courses
of that meal by an angular female in a
re l shawl and a crirn amile, who had the
honor of being Mrs. Major Jones. The
Major hunted through breakfast and was
dismissed from the table by a sign from
his wife. And, in a few minuter, we
heard him caroling forth such expression*
aa “Whoal” “Gee-up 1 ’ “Haw I” at the top
of hia voice. We were on the point of
breaking onr filth egg Into a tumbler, and
had j.iat atarted to pcrforxt that operation,
when Mrs Junes sweetly remarked:
“You will find the Major in the patch
behind the house. Colonel."
We took this to be a hint that we bad
better not or (mother egg just tbon. Bo
we laid it down and meandered forth In
quest of the Major. We found him to our
aatouiimiuent, plowing diligently, with his
coat iff*, and so busy waa be that he
did not take any notice of us
until he had previously asked us. as a
favor, to se« if Mrs. Jones was looking.
After we hail viewed all the viaible horizon
aud told him that Mr*. Jones was unfortu
nately not looking, be stopped and, com
ing where we were, said, “Colonel, don’t
mention it. hnt the fact Is—tha ole woman
la 'on it.’ Yea, air, she smelt It.” Aa this
conversation was very mysterlona to us,we
a«ke.l him what he meant. “Why, she
■melt the whisky that I drank last night
and you needn't mention it, but ahe put
me to plowing this morning. Of course,"
explained ho, ' ahe couldn't compel me to
do it, but, you iac, ahe ia in delicate health
and thudoctovaiajr it wont do to go against
her will. K) 1 always do anything she
asks roe to do—merely as a matter of form,
you know.” And happening to see 'he
delicate face of hie wife reeping through
the window at him. the Major—merely as
a matter of form. I aup. oia—mads a sad
den descent on his plow, exclaiming In a
loud voles for the edification of his wife.
‘ Coloned, I am very bury this morning and
can't go to town with you. f ‘
find my herse saddled and t
front gate, ready to carry you to the city,"
xsd, S3 w# turned to go, urn murmured in
a much lower tone of voice and with a jerk
of his head toward hia wife, “Merely as a
matter of form, you eee.” We left the
Major and went around to (be front gate,
prepared to mount one of the oft-mention
ed Arabians and soar on the wing* of speed
into the city. On arriving upon the scene
of action we foiled, instead of the Arabian,
along, lean animal of the mule persuasion
held by tho smallest imaginable specimen
of a negro, clad in a straw hat and a shirt.
On onr approach, the specimen brightened
up and casually remarked: “Marateraez
e* How yer mua'n’t rid him too fas’."
“What do you call it anyway," in a manner
inurudedtobelfon'cat. “Jewlot B^ee-ber,"
the srectmen replUd. Prom which we
judged that hlsnan e,'ran&la'rd into En
glish, would be Juline Cie er. As our
kuowle.'gi of Julias had previously beet*
confined to bis Commentaries, we advanced
in oider to obtain a nearer view of the Yr-
dt ublablecouaul. HD riba a’ood out In

down tbe shadowy vDtas of the peat. It

It on us, we mvolontarily stepped behind
a tree But this waa a time for action and

should be patronized.” We sat and con
versed with Mr. Scuuder until our inner
man politely informed us that we should
have to ceek con so 1 a*ion at the dinner ta
ble of Mrs. Jones. When, having obtained
a quart of whisky from him, on e credit,
to be used as an appetizer, we started for
tbe Major's suburban residence. We
reached there on time, bat found onr
worthy hostess gone on a visit. Therefore,
the Major bad quit plowing and wss so
lacing himself for hia momiDg’s exertions
with a cob pipe. After we had eaten din
ner the Major opened tbe conversation by
"sJSU, on must go over and ate Cep-
lain Russell this evening In regard lo the
little matter 1 brought yon down bere to
attend to. Yon aee"—here tbe Major
leaned back In hia chair and shook hie
Unger at me argumentatively—‘ the Cer
tain has a piece of land on the creek juat
below my bottoms. Now, leat year 1 went
to Macon and bought some goano from a
merchant down there, agreeing to pay him
thla fall. I pnt it on my land and
that very day » big rain came
and washed it down on Hassell's place.
His crops got all tbe benefit of it. you eee,
and I contend that he ought to pay for the
fertiliser. Bnt he retuies fo da so, and
Bays that I can’t make biro do it by law.
1 triedfoget SnnireRedbone to interview
btm on tbe matter, and show him that he
waa wrong. But he refused to do ao. o
on the ground that he owed Rnaaell for a
pig ana he couldn't think of otlending
btm. So I hero brought von down lo at
tend to it for me, and read tbe Captain tbe
law on the anbject, and, if neceeaary, sue
him." I waa a little disappointed about
the nalnre of tbe caae, aa 1 bad fancied
that it was a anlt Involving acres of land,
and bad already framed a ttemendons
speech to be made to the jnry on the sub
ject. However, I sneenmued gracefully to
'he Inevitable, and tgTeed to go over and
show the Captain bli mistake.
cm rata nr.
As it waa oplv a matter of some five
mllea to Capt. Russell’s bona., and we
didn’t feel like Imposing on Julias Cto.ar
to carry ns that little distance, we told tbe
Major that we would walk, and asked if
be had a guh he could loan ns lo
sboct some on the way. Now
Colonel, don't mention it,” replied be, in
answer to onr query, "nut tha fact is, I
hare a gun that I will loan yon. Itiaa
historic gun, in fact, It ia the gnn that my
father nsea in the Revolutionary war.
And sir, to be confidential with yon, be
need to tumble tbe Britishers with it in a
fearful manner.’ But, Colonel, can I rely
on yon lo be carelnl. to be considerate
with it end.,In othe-words, to take good
cars of it, for It la an heirloom in the fam
ily." "Major," we replird, "we will so-
cept ibe gnn as a solemn crarge and will
guard it with onr life, and we sacredly
prom! e yon that we will not strain It by
•hooting at ■ n object too fir off. but shell
carefully regulate onr distance before fir
log." "Ah I my boy, i eee I can rely oo
J on, and I now have no btti'anev In
earing it to yon.” 8. saylrg, tbe Major
went Into tn edjoinlng room end psesent-
IV returned wltn tbe Itevo'.ntioncry relir.
The nUe,thsivlMdHktMMMt-
cd eye, .part irom its warrecoid, waa a
long, (Ingle barrelled shot gnn, with no
hammer and an extensive assortment < f
cotton strides tied around tbe stock to
bold It together. "Ab! the many bloody
scenes that old gnn has wltnesieil,” said
tha Major as be leaned It up
egainst the wall and fell back to
examine it. "Yon perhaps have
noticed Ibe absence of tbe hamnerf"
“Well sir, it was broken oil In Ibis man
ner. Raring tbe battle of Bunker Hill,
my father charged a battery and be and

•lick. At tbe dreadfu
when, after having taken a dead' . ,| m
on them and the tree in generi j we or .
deredonr advance guard to " tooch'er
oil." Ofoouise, we had expected some
thing to happen when she we * touched off,
but we were not altogether pie p„ r ed foJ
tha extraordinary dev»Vpment that fol
lowed the order in this ln .On re
ceiving the order, the specimen bad
touched it olT w ,th each force and ve
hemence that be knocked the muzzle of
the gun on aI'.vrl with onr feet, and came
very near ro jbing us of tbe useful urns-
men tot to>. At the report the gun, ell
the robl-j, fl eWi w <th the execution ol one
bird, Vbicb, by cauint reconnot’ering, we
dur-mred to be too drank lo fly. Imme
diately, on this discovery, we dispatch'd
tbe specimen, in company with a big nick,
to keep him from jumping out o( the tree
and hopping off, and then proceeded to
fire volleys of musketry at him from vari
ous points. Of conns, there was no possi
ble chance ol escape for him, aa be was too
drunk to fiy. and ell communication by
land was cat ofiT by tbe epecimen, so we,
in time, managed to shoot him. But we
will do him justice to say that be met hia
drath like a man, (or a robin, we should
say,) and d d not surrender until the speci
men bad pounded bis bead with a rock.
On examination we foond that oar am
munition was expended, ao we abandoned
tha hunt and ordered the specimen to
"strike" for Captain Russel's. Afier a two-
mile walk, we "struck" tbe Captain's house
and proceeded to enter his yard, when
we were halted by tbe sudden appearance
ol the muzzle of a tun through a window,
and the command to "stand by.” Now,
we have made somewhat of a reputation
for quick obedience, and, In accordance
with onr previous character, we "stood
by.” And I hope tbe Captain, if ba is liv
ing, will do ue the justice to say that never
did a man stand closer by, or, rather, be
hind, a tree than we.
“Who a rye?' waa yelled ont from the
honse.
As we didn’t cae about divulging onr
names before we found ont wbai waa the
matter, we replied:
“Captain, (lor we supposed it was him),
yon are mistaken, air, tbia ia not me; it is
an entirely diflerent person; and I am
prepared lo swear I', If necessary."
This logic appeared to satisfy him, for,
on peeping eround tbe tree, we dlscorered
that the gun had been removed, and we
were soon joined by an old, grey-bearded
man. who came towards ns exclaiming:
“Stranger, I ax yer panting, bnt J 'mwd
es how rnebbe yer wos thet dad dratted
lawyer, as Mose Scodder told me wua
down hear ter sue me far Major Jones;
ere wbicn I hes sworn ter kill on eight."
That was enough for ns. We immedi
ately grabbed tbe Captain by tho hand,
and aa we wrung it warmly, we solemnly
assured efm that he was never worre mis
taken. That we were the advenceSk-ent
of a clrena that had four elephants and
sixteen tigera, and waa nowen rent* for
Barneaville. That, having posted the town,
we had started ont to take a little hunt,
bnt had got lost ana had stopped at hia
honse to ask the right road back to town
As we saw that be did not teem Inclln- d to
believe onr statement, we pnlied ont onr
qnart flask and offered him some of i's
contents as a “clincher.” It “clincbsd"
it right away. The muscles ol his face
relaxed as the bottle came in sight and as
lie put it between hia lips and biz eyie
twinkled to ihe musical “glng” "glng” of
tbs whiskey as it punred down his throat
via his Adam's apple, we knew that he
would believe anything we told bint Irom
that time on.
“No* Captain,” said we, when be had
•ncceeded in stowing away stout half of
our whiskey, “please show tne tha direct
road to town, and I will relieve you of my
company, although I aaanre yon that ft
pains me to leave yon.”
“No, no,"continued I, as he made a faint
abortive attempt to hand me the flask,
while he looked wistfully at ita contents.
"No. no; keep it Captain as a token o( my
•iDCere regard.”
Tha Captain showed me the road, and
attar digging the specimen ont of an old
hollow log where be had retreated on tha
first appearance ol the gnn, we proceeded
to take our departure. White going along
we held a council of war with ourselves •>
to which was tbe mod agreeable—to stay
here andbeahot by tbe Captain, be thump
ed to death by Julma Cm jar, and polaoned
by Mote, or return to Atlanta and risk Iba
chances of having to marry tha widow
Brady. We pondered on it for some little
time, and finally cectded to go bark to
Atlanta aa Ihe lesser evil. So we dispatch-
ed the specimen with a note to Major Jones,
which ran as follows:
Dear Major—l have been to see Captain
Russell, and have decided not toaue him.
for reasons that I decline to explain. I
have also decided that my health has been
sufficiently improved by your monntaio
bressea to admit of my ratnrnlng to
Atlanta, which I shall ao immediately
lint, as I know that jou are busy, I will
net tremble yon to carry me back with your
Arabians, but will walk It. I return tbe
specimen, together with the revolutionary
relic (T), and es a friend, would a gge t
that you maintain a stricter regard (or the
truth, and go to church more. Your
friend, Cash Cassoll.
P. 8.—Please lend my trunk and fee to
me hy the first passing.
The above not* wilt sufficiently explain
Itself, to I need not dwell on tnv journey.
Suffice it to eey, thet I returned to Atlanta
and succeeded in making aatiaiactury ar
rangements with toy creditors aud the
widow Brady to admit of my continuing
to reside among them. Bat I still have
vivid rtoollections of my trip “Among tbe
Mountains” In 18-.
I nssz no.)
"Wbat kind of a tala was the Major t-II-
ing yoo, Mr. Carroll," Inquired Mrs. Jonea
of me after her bnzbtnd’a retreating
form was lost to view. Thus ap
pealed to, we explained that be wae
only showing ns the gnn that
bis father had used In the Revolutionary
war, and was just in the act ol narrating
bow Gaoeral Howe bad enttfl the hammer
with hta sword, when he was Interrupted
Ol coarse, we refrained from mentioning
to a lady of Mrs. Jonas's refinement and
delicacy anything about tbe General's toe.
"Mr. Carroll,” replied that worthy lady,
"yon have not bevn here long, ao I will
explain to jroathat tha Major is tha biggest
liar l tvtr saw. Nothing that batajsla to
be believed. Why. that gnn no more
lerred in the Revolutionary war than von
nr I did. Tha Major only swapped for It
leal week. He gave onr old brindled dog
en< a ruck of potatoes to Pete Hamtord
for It."
He were completely dumfounded by
thiaexpoee; so much ao that we coaid not
say anyth!' g In onr defense. For, some
bow, we Mt real mean in bavin* been
caught swallowing such a war atoiy. How
ever, onr cariosity to know how the thing
worked wlthoat a hammer soon got the
better of ns, and we mildy asked Mrs.
Jonee to satisfy na on that point. “Pets
•aid ha always banted tba cap withstark-
bammer that ha carried In bla pocket for
that purpose,” ahe replied In answer In onr
.mery. "Well, Mrr. Jonae.” said I.

the time and n inner for defeodlng
tbelr r-gimenta were left lo the dis-retluu
of their respective colonels. Ibe result bar

absurb O irslaeping soldiers lie virtually
at the mercy of tbe enemy, and in tbe
Hadendowas' Inexplicable forbearance the
country has much to be very grateful (or.
They have retrained from slaughter with
a self-denial that in snch foes is
positively ner.de. Tbs Ooldstreams slept
two nights with nothing between them
and the stealthy, murderous spears of tha
Soudanese; till the day before yesterday
the headquarters staff went to bed with
ont even an earthwork to protect them
from snake-like attack of the enemy. Yet
tbe Hadendowas werejeonrent with an odd
soldier t.r two here or there. With the
lives ol tbe geoerals acd their stills io
their bands they sneaked instead into tbe
tents of tbelr privates To tbe Providence
that protects the helpless, Genl ’• Greaves.
McNeill and the rest owe their Uvea—to
nothing else, Onr sentries cannot see
these savages. Once past onr pickets
the redoubts cannot fire on them. Oo tbe
sand their feet fall without a sound. The
nights are of extraordinary darkness,
moreover, they are experts in all the
treacheries of warfare. Silent aa shadows,
they are terribly swift in massacre, and
the ground they travel over la murderous
beyond descripti io. Ravines so deep that
borsemen can pass no seen along them am
buscade onr whole front, while streaks and
patches of thick btnsh superfluously otter
contliinout lints of covert in every direc
tion to a f .e that Deeds no sack helps to
concealment Crawling along os ail-Iunra,
they t averse tba space between them
and their victims with all the
patient caution oi wild beasts stalking
prey. They reach Iba doomed tent. For
the sake ol tbe tea brctxe tha doorway Is
open, ard, the next inataDt the murderer is
•tending by the sleeping soldier’s aide. He
feels a hand passing over his body and
•tarts. A cry is rising to hts l'ps. Il is
strangled lo his throat hy a groan of palo,
aud befote the gallant (allow can even warn
hia comrades the fierce spear Is driven
home through hit body, the heavv two-
handled sword bss fallen across him. But
thetentlsalirrued There is no time to
lose! Slashing this way and that, the
murderers stab and hack with the fury of
fienda, and then aa the camp starts lo ita
feet in clamour they are off. Not a
•uund betrays their passing. There Is no
trace of blood to tell of retribution. They
are gone—back into the villainous gobies,
back into the scattered brush; end next
we can im>giue them sitting o refresh
themselves outside onr line ofredonbta-
to listen gleefully to tha storm they have
ralsid—tho bugles ti lling the old tale of
murder completed and the mnrderera
gone, the aimless volleys of rlflsa, the dtu
of voices, tha impotent utterances of oor
iudlgnaut guns roaring for an impossible
vengeance. They hear the tempest of tbe
camp’s alarm swell np and dwindle sway,
and then qulatty gat no and pass on to
where their friende ere walling to congrat
ulate and to rejoice—to rob itxrtlr spear
brads against mend tips of tbe assassins’
west ons. to smear tbelr swords with the
blood still wet on tbelr blades. And io oor
camp? Tbe hoapital stretchers there are
carrying away tba mangled, mutilated
bodies of onr men, their comrades stand
ing to their arma savage with nasleas rags,
aa they look at Iba lautern-lltgrouDof sur
geons and wounded. It ia a borrlbts epi
sode. yet of nightly occurrence.
“Murder!” "MurderI” I heard tha
word ring out list night from lha Ord
nance camp, and then carna a cry—lha
cry of a man suddenly overtaken by tbe
agony of death. A shot, and than another,
and another. Then a confusion ol mullU'i
sounds. Then silence. I was ouly 4 0
yards away, Tbe bigot bad been ao atm
that the water hipping on the quay waa
plainly audible where I lay. Frrsaatly
came this brief nproar of alarm, subsiding
aa loddsnly aa U bad arisen. Slgna'e
were fiatblug overhead. A party of
Hande.idowaa had either crept alraiabt
across the camp, or, patting along tba rear,
had traversed its complete length, cross
ing twice, on their way, the electric tight
thrown ny tha Dolphin; had reached,
without being observed, Ihe farthest ba-ch
of tanta from their starting point tbe
nearest is tbs tifw. Bvhiuu them, only a
bnodnd yards cfl, waa Quarantine Island,
wlibftacarup;nearer atm lay our shipping,
with the gunooate dose in shore, com
manding one line of their retreat, the
whol- ot the British troopi intercepting
the other. Behind them was Ihe
■es; on their left tbe town
ytt, such la tbe confidence
inspired by m'ghty sne ers and impunity,
that tbe arse anna did not beai’ala to creep
even into inch a desperate position as
this. And their work was desperataand
terrible complete, til the whole ol tbe
occopants of the tanta—twaoty-foar In all
—only two escaped their lpears and
aworda, while the murderers retreated ap
parently unharmed. Aa they want back
rifles were wildly emptied after them, aud
tba Csrysfort fired volleys into tbe dark.
Bot than waa no trace of bl<-od. Iuside
the tents the eight wav dreadful—blood
everywhere, and mao lying about in ell
directions wounded and groaning.
Now, abould inch a tragedy as this have
been possible? Tbe aothorlUee, when I
venture to aey it ebnuld not bepoesibte,
hive bat one reply—that absolute security
