AN EUECTRIFIITD CONSCIENCE.
ni tt 1. lr 1 .. . t ...
f'onjo years ago there moved to the
neighborhood pf Uncle Zeke's cabin ft gen?
tinman from Ke'vr YoTkwhose ' identity
may be disguised under the name of SmitlU
lheJi new-comer engaged vigorously in
fanning, and by liberal employment and
prompt payment soon gained the ; goppi
will of all the colored men around him.
Unclei Zeke in particular was never weary
of chanting his praises, and many a bushel
of oysfttsaUd Ezekiel convert into money
ar&iteitu8esUlte; was calT:
But all the' good-Will of his humble ueigh-
bora dht not suffice td protect Mr. Smith
from pflferings. Shoats would disappear
mysteriously during the night, geese And
turkeys would take wing for parts un
kttownr aini In particular the com crib
would frequently 1 show by unmistakable
signs that its sanctity had been violated.
To the story of these various losses would
Uncle Zeke incline a sympathetic ear, and
hiaj"Vell, now, who ever hear do like o'
datf 'Clar to goodness desc j-ere loys is
gittin'j. wnsser and wusser," evidenced
ilifc'c his detestation of the crime and his
Cfmtempt for the offender.
Smith's atience was at last exhausted,
and he determined upon vigorous meas
ures for the "protection of his property.
His first experiment was to place a large
spring-trap, artistically concealed in a
heap of shelled corn, close by the cat liole
in the corn -crib door, expecting that the
unwary thief, plunging his hand reckless
ly through the hole in the heap, would be
caught and held till some one came to set
him free. But, lo ! next morning the trap
was found sprung and the heap of corn
diminished, but the thief had vanished
andleft ho trace behind.
At last a good-sized box arrived from
Xew York, and the next day 'the local car
penter was ordered to fix two brass han
dles to the corn-crib; one to bo put along
side tho door for convenience, as Mr.
Smith publicly explained, of steadying
one's self while turning the other. The
second handle had a latch attached to it,
Lby which the door was secured on tlie in
side,, and was set in such a position that
nny' one turning it must hold on by the
other knob to prevent being thrown back
ward by the ox)euing door. Both handles
were' profusely decorated with glass, ami
elicited imrch admiration from the hands,
who subnrittcd tbciut a critical exainvd
nation. The carpenter s work being fin
ished " ml thjthe presence of all-his
coloredNjployees, solemnly Tepeated,-.tir
front of tlie corn-crib, the first two lines
of the second book of Virgil's jfSneid, and
announced that his corn was thencefor
ward secure. A box, stated to contain
seeds, was that afternoon deposited in the
crib, and during tlie early part of the en
suing night the proprietor of Belle vue
secretly busied himself with a coil of in-
Esulited wire. ; .
' tjfunierous and diverse were the specula
tions among the darkies. Jim Oakley
"fdwed Mis' Smith done 'witched dat ar
corn -house, sho 'uuff. Tell you, geinmcn,
you touch' dem ere handles, evil spcrit
carry yotr 'way: No such thin's.evil
speritf- Ilp,' you know dere no such
ting? Hush, boy; go see what de Bible
say 'bout dem ting." Pete Lee "didn1
b'lieve in no spcrits; got a gnu fix sonie
wjiar inside dat house; turn de handle an'
de gun go off. Seen dem tings afore up
country, Ayhen I live in Goozleum." An
other theorist averred that "while Mis'
Smith sayip' dat ar Seripter oler dem
handles, he seen a white pigeon come a
sailin' roun' an' roun', and done light n
de peak o' de corn -house roof. High ! tell
yon Sar, sumpin up, sho."
Uncle Zeke, like the rest, was troubled
in his mind, but, unlike his fellows, he de
termined to waste no time in simulation,
but to seek his information direct from
head-quarters. Prepared with half a bush
el of oysters, as an excuse for conversation,
he sought an interview with Mr. Smith,
and boldly propounded his questions.
"Mis' Smith, what you bin a-doiu' to
dat ar crib o' yourn t"
"Why, Uncle Zeke, what do you want
to know for ?"
"Oh, nuffin, Sah; sorter cuius like.
Hearn all de boys fcilkin' .'bout it ueber
see nuffin like dat afore."
"Well, Uncle Zeke, I can't very well
explain it" tP ytu;but I just advise you
don't gti ne;ir;th at crib after dark, or you
may see something yon won't like." And
Uncle Zeke " departed, revolving many
things in his mind.
It was midnightthe hour when church
yards arc said to yawn, not with exhaus
tion, but returning .animation. In front
of ihe enchanted corn-house stood Brother
Ezekiel, a lengthy pole in his hand, and a
capacious meal bag over his shoulder. In
silent meditation he stood for some five
minutes, deliberating on the1 best plan of
attack, l he great Newfoundland watch
dg bounded towards him, evidently in
rejoicing welcome. Forth from his pock -eTthe
pld man drew a savory bit of fried
iwcon, which the faithless Bos'en eagerly
devoured. The -refection ended. rh r1r
. . ,
lay contentedly on the ground and watch
ed the subsequent proceedings with tho
air of astotiilly-disiuteresretl observer.
- "'Clar to gootlness, now,?' muttered Un
cle Zeke, "wisli'lMn'stoodut die ting.

height of at least ten feet. The wretched
Ezekiel, on his-hands and knees, his eyes
protruding, and his jaw dropped, remained
as if paralyzed.
- Suddenly the phantom bowed itself and
its head descending with iucrfihyifV.j

A correspondent writes ih fr.m New
Jersey : "Three years ago I wiis jaid vised
by some one to soak corncobs in molasses
and water, and hang them to the branches
of my plum trees, and thereby attract the
curculio to the cobs. 1 have done so since
that time, and have had a crop of fruit
each year. Perhaps some of your readers
who have been disappointed in regard to
getting plums from their trees, may be in
clined to try tlie molasses. The cobs
are put upon the trees as soon as the
blossoms open ; it is well to burn them af
ter the plums have got beyond the time

Tjong ago the world was convinced that sew
in.tr can be done by machinery 'the only ques
tion now is,' what mdchin'e combines in 'itseli
the greatest number of important advantages;
Just here the
FLORENCE
comes in with its self-regulating tension, see
ing from muslin to leather without change ot
thread or needle, then from right to left and left J
rto right while one style of the machine sews
to or from the operator, as may uo desired and
with stitch alike on both sides. In eleganc&oi
finish and smoothness of eperation, variety oi
woik and reasonableness in price, the Florence
has won the highest distinction. F. G. Cartland
