Trench was left to meditate beside the fire. He gaz

family and two of his braves. When the
poor maniac revived under the influence of the warm food, she started

up with wild
looks and sought again to fly, but was
forcibly detained by one of the braves. "Oh, let me go--let me go!--to
his mother!" she
wailed piteously, for she felt herself to be helpless in the youth's
strong
grasp. "Has Rising Sun forgotten Bearpaw?" said the chief tenderly, as
he stood before her. "Yes--yes--no. I have not forgotten,"
she said, passing her

hand over her brow; "but, oh! let me go to her before I die!" "Rising
Sun shall not die. She is among friends now. The pale-faced enemies
who killed Little Beaver can do her no harm." "Killed him--enemies!"
murmured the poor girl, as if perplexed; then, quickly, "Yes--yes--he
is dead. Does not Rising Sun know
it? Did she not see it with her own eyes? He
was killed--killed!" The poor girl's
voice rose as she spoke until it was almost a shriek. "Rising Sun,"
said the chief, in a tone which the girl could not choose but obey,
"tell us who killed him?" "Killed him? No one killed him!" she
answered, with a return
of the perplexed look. "He missed his footing and fell over the cliff,
and the Great Spirit took
him." "Then the palefaces had nothing to do with it?" asked the chief
eagerly. "Oh! yes; the palefaces had to do with it. They were there,
and Rising Sun saw all that they did; but they did not see her, for
when she saw them coming she hid herself,
being in great fear. And she knew that Little Beaver was dead. No man
could fall from such a cliff and live. D

more fairly; for Ella has a marvellous ingenuity in picking out easy
verses, like Jack Horner's plums, and valuing every sacred sentence,
not by its subject, but by its shortness. Still, she is bound to win.
"How is her health this summer?" I asked her mother, the other day.
"Well, her verses weigh on her," said the good woman, solemnly. And
here I pledge you my word, Dolorosus, that to every one of these
statements I might append, as Miss Edgeworth does to every
particularly tough story,--"_N.B. This is a fact._" I will only add
that our Sunday-School Superintendent, who is a physician, told me
that he had as strong objections to the whole thing as I could have;
but that it was no use talking; all the other schools did it, and ours

must; emulation was the order of the day. "Besides," he added, with
that sort of
cheerful hopelessness peculiar to his profession, "the boys are not
trying for the prize much, this year; and as for the girls, they would
probably lose their health very soon, at any rate, and may as well
devote it to a sacred cause."
Do not misunderstand me. The supposed object in this case is a good
one, just as the object in week-day schools is a good one,--to
communicate valuable knowledge and develop the
powers of the mind. The defect in policy, in both cases, appears to
be, that it totally defeats its own aim, renders
the employments hateful that should be delightful, and sacrifices the
whole powers, so far as its
influence goes, without any equivalent. All excess defeats itself.
As a grown man can work more in ten hours than in fifteen, taking
a series of days together, so a child can make more substantial mental
progress in five hours daily than in ten. Your child's mind is not an

to be wisely and healthfully reared; and your wife might as well

House, chief poll-holder, and seemed to be in charge of the movements
of the voters outside the booth as well as inside.

He appeared to be omnipresent, and his self-importance was a sight
Phil
had never dreamed. He could not keep his eyes off him. "By George,
Cameron,
he's a wonder!" he laughed. Aleck had suppressed as far as possible
the story of the painted stakes and the deed, after sending out
warnings to the brethren to beware of two enticing strangers. The
surveyors had reaped a rich harvest and passed
on. Aleck made up his mind to go to Columbia, make the laws himself,
and never again trust a white man from the North or

South. The agent of the Freedman's Bureau at Piedmont tried to choke
him off the ticket. The League backed him to a man. He could neither
read nor write, but before he took to whiskey he had made a specialty
of revival exhortation, and his mouth was the most effective

thing about him. In this campaign he was an orator of no mean powers.
He knew what he wanted, and he

knew what his people wanted, and he put the thing in words so plain

Avy guns in the distance, telling that the long-range artillery duel,
farther south, was still in progress. But, as Hal was about to give the
word for a further advance, from almost directly ahead, though still
some distance away, came the sound of
a single pistol
shot. Just one shot; that was
all. In vain did the lads strain their ears to catch a possible reply to
the shot. None came. Hal ordered his men to advance at
a slow trot, and the troop moved
forward once more. Now they came to a woods. They advanced rapidly and
the woods became less dense, and the darkness
caused by the heavy overhanging trees gave way to more light. Hal again
called a halt, and
himself rode forward to investigate. Twenty yards ahead he came to a
clearing in the woods, stretching
out for a possible quarter of a mile. In

the very center of this clearing the lad made out a strange sight. His
eyes fell upon
a detachment of German troops--about fifty all told--dancing about what
Hal finally made out to be
a barn. As Hal looked a sheet of flame sprang up. It was plain to the
