are. sure Horace Sinclair is in the

Would to Heaven I were as sure
that the arch rebel of all, Mr. Wash

sternly. Twice have I heard his sig
nal to his lady-love, the dainty Cora,
who may have heard it also, but can
not divine that 'tis her lover's, sum
moning her to a tryst of -my making.
The letter I wrote him he has deemed
his Cora's, imploring him to hazard
even life itself to meet her in the
lonely summer house. Have you the
chaplain with you?
He is below iu the diniog-hall,
paying homage i to the port and

why he is here to make me a mar
ried man. , But,' mother, can you,
with all your. skill, force Cora V&l
lame to become my wile?
You shall see, I was the cold and
firm response. She must, to secure
the Vallame estate to us. She loves
her horse more than she does you,
and values the little finger of Horace

He bared his dragoon sabre as he

exclaimed Cora;
Consent, said Madame Vallame; or
see Horace Sinclair hanged upon the
tree where you and ho have so often
met.
They dare not hang me, dear Co
ra, said the calm voice of the bound
officer. I am taken in my uniform,
and therefore no spy.; Do not be
imposed upon.
j Do not sing so boldly,; said Mad
ame Vallame. The hanging of a
rebel, uniformed or not, is a pleasure
to our loyal English general. My
pon's troopers- as you may sec in
their fierce eyes, . will gladly termi
nate your career with sudden cord.
Your rebel general has hanged our
Major Andre worth a. score of Ma
jor Sinclairs why shall not Captain
de Verre hang you if he sees fit?
Because he dares not, was the calm
reply of the American, as his hand
some face blazed with scorn. :
We shall see that tried, and shortly,
said Rudolph. . Cora Vallame, you
see that dial the light shines bravely
upon it it is now twenty minutes
after ten. If, when the minute hand
shades the cipher six, your Hps have

The tearful eyes of the tortured
girl wandered from face to face in
woful despair. . On all she read hut
one stem and iron resolve. On the
faces of her enemies inflexible resolve
to murder. On the calm and noble
face of the American, the undaunted
resolve to die as it became a war
rior. Speak Horace! What shall I do?
cried Cora, as the silence grew ter
rible, and the clicking of the clock
seemed to grow fearfully rapid.
Let me die a thousand times rather
than behold you the wife of that ren
egade who slew his mother's hus
band, said Sinclair.
God pity my sorrow, said Cora.
Cruel, cruel woman, kill him then
but slay me with him! Oh, Horace!
and weeping bitterly she flung her
self upon her brave lover's bosom.
Their lips met, and clung in desper
ate fondness; and ere the furious son
and fiendish mother could tear them
asunder, Cora's quick hand, armed
with the dagger she always bore
with her in those troublous times,
had severed the cords that bcuud the
American's arms. J
Strike! for life and liberty! she
cried, as Sinclair snatched a sabre
from the hand of the nearest trooper,
and sprang upon the other, who went
down cloven to the chin. Wheeling
fiercely, the sabre clashed with that
of Rudolph, and sweeping back from
arm clean arm ciear irom cue nuui

To please the ear anl catch the eye,
Believing a call upon yoar purse,
Like love and war, bounds best in verse.

The oilivr. rdiu and despuir.
Nor closely criticise our verso,
For you h ve doubtless written worse.
Hero lien the fault, onr critic friend,

Or, is sentimental lyric wooed,

And know, in these degeuerAtc dujs,

And tritu their sails to catch the breeze.

To fill our .ails. and catch the trade.

Much of the taste that we if&play;
But our selections always suit
Those who have taste beyond dispute. '

And who does not feel his heart rebound.
When this glad time comes rolling round?
In making presents, keep this iu view,
They may be nice aud useful too.

To buy the goods to suit the rase.
3Iothcrs, IIeed the Warning.
An't it splendid! I heard a little
boy exclaim, as he took a huge bite
from the brandy-peach his playmate
had ottered, t t
What makes it so good, Lewis!
You little goose, don't you know?
Why, it's the brandy of course, was
his companions reply.-
Then brandy must be very good,
if it makes peaches' taste so nice,
said Franky, smacking his lips.
I rather think it is; it's delicious,
answered Lewis. I coax mother to
give me a spoonful every time she
- . T1 .... 1 . ! I

to do it, though. He sas I mighr
grow up to be a drunkard; but motjier
says there's no danger, and I say so
too; for 1 do think it is awful mean
lor a man to go staggering through
the streets and rolling into the gut
ter. No, indeed, I'll never never
be u drunkard!
Years passed, and I was ojic day
strolling' thuugtr' the still, snadowy
groves of Glen wood Cemetery, when
u lunrral hied slowly in. i J followed
it, and when the mourners and others
left the carriages, I wtnt with them
to the grave, aud stood near to the
pull-bearers, as they deposited their
burden for a tew moments ou the
rude boards placed to receive it.
The coffin was very rich and costly,
and as a sunbeam, the farewell of
the departing day, flashed across the
silver plate on the lid, I read
Lewis AnnoT. Aged IS.
So young, thought 1 sadly; cut
down in ine very spriug-ume ol uie:
When the colfin was lowered, the
mother, who had been strangely
calm, sprang away from the arm on
which she had been leaning, threw
herself on her kt.ees beside the grave,
with her hands clasped and her tear
less eyes gazing wildly down into the
dark receptacle.
O my precious boy! Lost, lost
forever! Sent to perdition by your
mother's hand! As this despairing
cry burst from her hps, she threw her
arms upward; and, with a deep groan
of mortal anguish, fell backward,
deathlike and inanimate. She was
removed to the house of the officer
in charge of the cemetery, and I,
shocked and terrified bt'ond meas
ure, left the place with that terrible
cry of self-reproach ringing in my
ears. .As I passed out, I met a friend
to; whom I related .what had trans
hired, mentioning the name of the
youth.
I heard of his death this morning.
Poor Lewis! It is a brief, but sad
history, and, as I have known the
family for years, I can explain the
scene you have witnessed.
Mrs. Abbot was justly famed for
her delicious peaches, and allowed
her children to eat of them freely.
Lewis, the only son, seemed to have
them to school almost every day as
a part ot his lunch. After a time,
he began to beg for the brandy in
which they were preserved, and the
indulgent mother often gave him a
spoonful, until, at last, it began to
disappear very rapidly aud strangely,
and Lewis was caught one day
drinking from the jar. Mrs. Abbot
was afpalled;"but her work could
not be undone. Her jars were locked
away Palely, .but it was too late.
Trie infatuated boy spent his pocket
money for brandy; aud when that
was withheld, sold his skates, then
his watch, then his boons; his medal,
which he had prized so highly, and
even articles of clothing were all
sacrificed to the fatal appetite that
was consuming every attribute of his
high, noble nature. For four years
he has been rushing madly, reckless
ly, to his dolm, and now the star of
his young life has goue out in ever
lasting darlieS3v His last -words
were full of the most fearful import:
Those infcmaJJJrandy-peaches, moth
er they gave mo the first start on
the downward road. Remember
that, mother!
Ah, welkriuight tho heart-broken
mother reproach herself in the bit
terness of despair at the grave of her
lost boy, for truly her hand had done
the work. I .
O mothersTTieed the warning!
In every crystl jac of peaches and
cherries from which the brandy
fumes arise, rfT eve.ry glass of the
sparkling domestic wines, your own
hands have so skillfully prepared,
lurks a fiery fiend,, which may re
tentlessly and cruelly crush and
blight the fairest, the noblest, and
the dearest of all your cherished
household treasures.

of his.wife'stieuds, who are. gf a

The plan was carried out, and,
upon the arrival of the train in the
evening, the oung husband, Who

he asked to see the little stranger.
Imagine his surprise at seeing three

After gazingat them iu profound
astonishment for several minutes, he

Here is a good one on the "tater

to every stock. A second one says
they have cut down my early crop,
and are sitting on the fence waiting
for the late crop to come up. Pshaw,
said the third, you don't know any
thing about it. I passed a seed store
the other day, and the bugs were in

who had purchased seed potatoes.

ROLLER SKATING.
CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS.
What ! have not been to see tho Roller Ska
ting? Yo h.ive missed a great treat. Don't
fail to go the first opportunity you have, for it
is the richest, rarest, most interesting, most
popnlar and innocent amusement in the known
world. No ono can object to it The most
em no at Clergy all approve of it, and speak
volumes in its praise. On6 of onr most learned
and pious Bishops says: "I wish ther6 was a
ltink in every city, town, college and school
in our couutry."
It ii graceful: it is amusing, innocent and
entertaining. The time will soon come, when
not to know how to skate will be equivalent to
leing unknown. Perfect order is always to
be found at the Fayetteville SkatiDg Rink.
Tbe iufluence of Ltdiea society is brought to
bear ou our young men. 'The sod beneath
the rose bash imbibes, perfume, " and snrely
onr young men will be brought to feel the sa

Be 6ure to come nnd jndge for yourselves.
Roller skating is a healthy amusement. Ev
ery one is beginning to learn. It ia decidedly
the fashionable amusement of the day.
Particular attention paid to ladies learning.
A splendid Brass Band in attendance every
