Not long since Jake left tlie house In search of a cow. lJi..'ep.nifej...irfi..iu9Bxu.'-lin.uold worn out patch of clay land, of about six acics In extent, In tho centre of which was a well twentysfive or thirty feotJeep, that at Bomo timej probably, had furnish ed the inmates of a dilapidated house ' near by with water. In passing by this v p, an ill wind drifted Jake's "tile' ifpru his head, and maliciously wafted it to the edge of the well, aud in it tnmbled. Now, the old gentleman had always praetised the virtue f etsonomy, and he immediately set about recovering the lost was 4ry at the. bottom, he mieoileJ the ropo which he had brought, for capturing tlo truant eowi and after sovorsl attemots qateb the hat with a noose he Qoncladed to save time by getting down luto the well himself. To accomplish this, ho mado fast the end of the rope toastutrip hard by. It was a fact, of which Jake was no less obvious than tho reader here of that No'l Wells was in the thliiUrd old building aforesaid and that an old blind horse, with a bell on his neck, who had been turned out to die, was lazily grazing within a short distance of the veil. Ihe devil himself, or some other wicked spirit, put it .into Ned's cranium :o. have a little fun : so he quietly slipped up to the horse, aud unbuckling the strap, approachod with a slow and steady Hiiig ading' to the edge of the-well. "Dang the old blind Iiorsaf 'sflid the mail at the tiottoiii or tho Well ihe com ing ihts way sure, and ain't got anr more sense than to fall in here. Whoa, Dill !" 'Put -the continned approach of the 'ting-a-ling" said just as plainly as words that Pill wouldn't whoa. Pesides, Jake was at tho bottom, resting before trying to shin it up the rope. Great Jerusalem 1" said he, "the old cuss will be a-top of me before I cap say Jack Robinson. Whoa, dang it, whoa 1" Jul then Ned drow up to the edge of the well, and with his foot kicked a little dirt into it. ' ' "Oh, Lord?'' exclaimed Jake, falling on his kiwea at the bottom. "I'm gone now wTjoa? Now I lay me lown to sleep whoa! I pray the lord my soul 4 to w hoa, now! Ob, Lord have mercy on me !" N ed could Ti'obj in no longer, and" fear ing Jake might suffer froin his fright, he revealed himself. Probably Ned didn't make tracks frouHTiat well. Maybe Jake wxsn't up to tho top of it in short order, and you might think he didn't try every night for two weeks to get a shot with his rifle at Ned. Maybe not, I don't know, lint I do know that if Jake finds out who st nt yon this, it will be the last squib y"''i et. r ,' THE GOLD TUMBLE. Tlie steady decline of gold is decided ly the healthiest sign of the season. Un like other fluctuations that have been s en since the closo of the war, the pres ent decline appears to be gradual, and the festilr tif the wtidtcW)tiipTBrationS f the natural laws of commercial economy. Previous changes have 1en"TpfliiTOdr ami have proven altogether unreliable as a bus s of operations hi business. Intel ligent observers of tho leading markets rtf the country have noted a marked and steady fall in wholesale prices driring the past two mouths. - There is probably inoro reason to hope for a continued . , . . r,,-,ml n the price of gold, and correlahvcly of goods in geueral, for for some time to come, than to apprehend a backward tendency. Such would be a natural reaction from the excited condi l ion of the markets during many months of political agitation and pnblic want of coiilideuce. .
