Bent a shuddor to Its central flhro by pressing
It for n moment with a noso us Inquisitive as

on tho goaso bono. Hy some mysterious Im-

dip nnd snw tlio mouse, whom It feebly rr
inoialicml ns ouo thnt had frequently token
refuge benpnth it friendly sheltcK when tho
liousemnl.l was on her semi-weekly ducting
. expeditious. Tho whiskcra of tho little ereu
turo moved with tremulous sympnthy, its
.eyes glenmed with tender solicitude. It np
pronchod nenrer, lnylng onepnw softly upon
tho edgo of tho gooso bone, it said:
"My dear friend, how do I Hud you hero
you who but todny dwelt over tho grnto of

A long, low sigh rent tho bosom of tho
gooso bone.
"Ah me," it brenthed, "could I butllvo my
tllfu over uguln, I would not bo horo now."
"Cheer up," exhorted tho mouse, "you inny
yet recover nil you have lost."
"Ah, no," wnlled tho gooso bono. "To-
iinorrow tho chore Iwy will tllng mo nnd my
wretchod coniuulons into tho furnnce.
Only tonight my mnster, onco my proud
possessor nnd best friend, cast mo out with
Ills own hand, And tomorrow my wretched

terribly wicked nnd I am being Justly pun

the plnno was sold and he did not como for a
week. Ills next visit was followed by tlio
dlsnppoArAiico of tho book caso and two rock

jamo once more and nil tho furnltuo seemed
to follow him Awny. My master grew palo
nnd thin, tlio hired girl was discharged nnd
I my beautiful young mistress tiegun to sweep
tho empty s rooms mid dine tho plcturelcsa

weather was modernto and tho coal lay un

fairly arrived. My master enmo up to mo
nud picked mo up nud gazed on mo In rago.
Ho hurled mo to the ll wr and was about to

voloo said, "Don't apa. You will spoil mo

Ho picked mo up, throw mo through tho

.others, nnd let mo, dead, ntono for what I
did whllo nllvo. Draw nigh."
Tho mouse, weeping, cuddled up to Its dis-
'hoartcned nud departing frioud nud received
tits dying coutldencos.
"I was tnkon from tho bosom of n mnlden
gooso, shot by nn nrilent 8ortman, ns she
was winging liar wny south to tho sunny
.shores of the gulf, whero sho nnd her kind
wero Intending to spend tho winter. Her
form was taken to n market and purchased
'by my master. Up to this timo I hail scarcely
felt thnt I hnd n suporato exlstunco, but when
1 hoord him say to tho cook that I should bo
ttuken out of the body of tho gooso beforo it
had been brought to tho table, n conscious
ness suddenly awoko in mo, faint and dim at
;flrst, but. soon growing into a keen and
prophetic intelligence. I could see adown
tho vista of time, with Its great procession of
days ond nights. If thoy wero bright and
clear and pleasant, I guzed Uou them with
happiness. If they were cold ami lowering
ttlioy mado mo shudder a .d io oil. 1 1 due
timo I was strlpjied from my surroundings of
flesh and laid in tho hands of my mnster.
Ho wns a good man" and hero tho poor
gooso bono burst Into a shower of tears so
.copious as to bedew threo kxx1h and a large
j, loco of rag that lay beneath It. Hut It soon
recovered Its firmness and said: "I must
hasten with my story, whllo I havo yet
.st length. My master held mo up to the light
and I know thnt ho wns admiring my grace
ful ard Mender proportions and gazing with
rapture upon tho semi-translucent joint of
my structure. Ho laid mo down nnd noted
tho clour nnd dark spots on my sides, ho bent
my olastlo form until It was warty double
nud let mo spring back to my former bhupc.
I was delighted with myself, with him, with
my knowledge of the future and I ftlt that
I was born for a great career. My inufter
laid mo upon the mantel and said I foretold
a mild whiter, with jitrt about enough snow
nt Christmas to make It a pleasant season.
Ho used to point mo out to Ills friends nud
explain my gifts and my value, and ho would
consult mo nt nil times when ho wished to
learn what tho weather was to bo. And ho
ninny happy years went n. I loved him,
nnd foretold tho.wenther av.d was glnd. Ah,
thoso wero pleasant times, and oh, how fool
ishly wicked I havo been."
"Once, a week went by and my master
never enme near mo but a single time, nud
thon ho glanced nt mo hut carelessly. And
then a long poriod when Ids visits wero fow
nnd far lietwecn, ho seemed not to cure
wliothor I existed or not. My heart went out
to him In vain longing when I heurd his
volco or his step. I grow polfc, and wasted,
nnd thin, my life was a burden nud I wished
to im turned to dust. At last I learned the
fatal truth. My master hud hot rayed my
fond nirection uud trilled with my honest
heart. Ho had bought a barometer, ono of
thoso stuck up, glassy, brassy things that
pretends to foretell tho weather, and upon It
ho lavished tho coulldeuco and direction that
iiad been mine.
My heart dried up, a wild wrath took pos
nession.of mo and from that moment I lived
for revenge. My brain whirled with mad
desire, and plots woro tho iwrpotuul burden
of my mind. I waited and waited, and
loomed patience, and at last my time came
Tho summer passed, and just when tho fiost
begun to tinge tho plants, I could beo tin ojh
ths wlulnv, I luirl my ouco lovod,
but now hated master say he must consult
mo and seo what kind of a winter It was go
ing to bo, so ho could lay in his wlnter'a sup-
lily of coal. I nolil my ureniu aim waited,
llurnmo:! was so full of wrath that X do
celvod him. I turned dark, bluck, from end
to end. Ho muttered to himself and stag
m.rl from the room. All tlio next duy, and
tho next,' and tho next, I heard tho grutlng
crash of tho Anthracite coal as it rollod into
) slind lust outs hie. And tlio next nay a
ati-nmr. Rini man como in with a bill for
thirteen tons of coal nt 111 a ton. My mas
ter looked a, tho bill und thon at me. In my
frenzy of ferocious glee I was transparent
my full length, lie picked mo up aim gown
nt mo as If ho would read my very soul. I
returned his look with Interest, for I enjoyed
Ms miiTerliiB- and iiiv triumph. I was ro-
venged. Ha, hal Kevongo Is sweet, ah,
weet," and tho decrepit old twite fairly hug
Kl Itsolf In transport. Hut It shuddered,
whllo it paused, and then resumed hi a lew
and broken voice:
"But timo brings changes. That cold,
stem, coal clerk camo again and again, twloe

It was ono of tho hottest duys near tho ond
of July, 1S7I. Just ono year after tho terrible
Imttlo of (lettysl)urg--when Oconto llealon
came riishlnn Into tho pnrsouuKO, his face
fale with fright, saying that lie had Just come
from tho diamond or public sipiuro of tho
town and had seen ono of (Ion. Hlowart's raid
ers. They woro tho advanced guards of a
company of cavalry on a mid through the
Uuiiibcrlaml valley. Karly lu tlio morning
thoy hud hoard shots and their forces were
now oiu'uiuplng on tho hills overlooking
Chnmliersburg, one of Us nourishing towns.
The citizens woro now withering at tho court
house, having a "parley" with some olllcers
sent In advance Io liiuko terms for tho sur
render of tho town or to demand a law In
demnity of tho olllcers of tho hank for Its re
demption, otherwise threatened toliurn every
House aner pillaging tlio stores. .Mr. iieutoii
hastened out, determined to learn the worst
and to make arrangements for the safety of
his family. Joseph and Wllllo wero eager to
go with him, but In advised their remaining
with tho family until his return. For more
than three years tho Inhabitants had heard
ru nors of tho advance of tho rebels, hut
hitherto no serious damage was stiU'ered, ox
o.itbyafow of It id's army, who ono year
liefore, hail inardi'd throtiKh on their way
to tho fatal defeat at Gettysburg, which was
n'miit twenty-four miles distant. Tho gov
ornmciit had established several hospitals In
tho town, and tho citizens had shown grent
kindness to tho sick and kindness of both
armies. A committee of ladles wero constant
In their visits to theso woundod men, whom
tho fortune of war had left to tho cure of stran
gers. Kveiy hlug that tender nursing could
do, wasilouo to niltluato the honors of the
fratricidal contest, and many wero the loving
expressions of mothers In tho north ami
south, whoso sous wero restorod or In dying
wero not loft without tho convolution of
Chrlstalti tenderness and love, as thoy ylohled
up their lives away from homo and friends.
Tho present raid was conducted by Oen. Mo
Causland, who had previously moved on to
Hiifrcrstown nnd demanded $20,000, which was
paid and the town saved. Tho wholo force,
of which this was tho advance under tho
rebel commander Don, Jtili.ir A. Karly, who
hy a rapid movomeiit, was threatening
Washington. Meanwhile plundering parlies
wero sont on to Invade the bonlor towns of
Pennsylvania and thoso lu Maryland, which
could bo reached in safety. Mr. Ilea ton soon
learned tho following facts: Tho rebels hav
ing been Interrupted by tho forces employed
to protect tho border, did not enter tho town
until Saturday morning. Thoy had previous
ly taken tho prccliutlun of planting two bat
teries In commanding positions nnd In get
ting up tholr wholo column early on Satur
day they opened with their batteries and fired
somo half a dozen shots Into tho town, hut
thoy did no damage; It was this noise which
had aroused tho town very soon after their
klrmlstier entered by almost every streot
and alley running out west and southwest,
nud finding the way clear, their cavalry, to
tho number of -1.7) came lu under tho com
mand officii. MeCaiisland, and whllo tho of
ficers woro recoiinolterlng to art n good Imr-
ga'n with tho citizens for tribute, his soldiers
spent most o f their time lu almost Indlserlm
lunto robbery. Hats, caps, boots, watches,
silverware and everything ofvaluo were ap
propriated from Individuals on tho streets
without ceremony, and when a man was met
vlio"oaiipcaianee Indicated a plethoric purse
a pistol would lo presented to his head with
the order to "deliver!" with a dexterity that
would have donn credit to the free hooting
accomplishments of nn "Italian Hrlgaud."
Their chief rodo up ton number of citizens
and gavo notice that unloss .VX),000 In green-
hacks or fHXMtiOln gold was paid lu half an
hour the town would bo burned, hut no ouo
responded to his rait, ami the citizens ol
riiamorshurg promptly Informed them that
they could not and would not pay any ran
som. He had tho court house bell rung to
convene thocttlzons, hnplngto frighten them
Info tho payment of a largo sum of money,
hut no one attended and no sort of ellort was
was undo by Individuals or by commltteoto
make any terms. All determined that the
relH'ls should riilllll tholr threat to burn the
town, rather than that thoy should pay trib
ute. Infuriated hy tin dolormlnatlon oftlio
people; a major rode up to n group of tho
citizens and ordered them under arrest. This
olllccr said thoy would bo hold for tho pay
ment oftlio money, nnd If not paid he would
take them to Itlclimoud as hostages and a No
hum ovory house In town. While ho was en
deavoring to force them Into on cll'ort to raise
the money, bis men commenced tho work of
llrlng and they woro discharged when It was
found that Intimidation would olio t nothing
The main part of the town was envolood
In Humes In ten minutes, and no time was
given oven to remove women or chlldrou or
slckoroven the dead. No notice of burning
the town was communicated to any ouo, but
like Infuriated llonds, tho work of destruc
tion wns commenced. Thoy divided Into
squads and fired ovory other, and
olten retry house, If they presented any
prospect of plunder thoy would beat lu tho
door with Iron burs or heavy plank, smash
iiliauy furniture with an ax, throw fluid or
oil upon It and ply tho mutch. They almost,
Invariably entered every room of each house
rilled the drawors of bureau's, app'oprlutod
money, Jowelry, watches and any other
va'ualiles, and often wouhl present pistols to
tlu heads of Inmates, men and women and
d -iiiuiulod money or tholr lives. In nearly
halftho Instances thoy demanded owners to
uuiihom their property, and In cases It was
done and the property burned. The main ob
ject of tho men seemed to bo plunder, not a
hmiso esooited plllago, all were plundered of
everything that could bo curried awny. In
most caseslhouses wero outered In tho rudest
manner, and no timo whatever allowed oven
for families to escape, much less to save any
thldg. Many families had the utmost dllll
eulty to get themselves and their children
out In timo, and not one-half hail so much as
a change ol olothlng with them. They would
rush from Moro to store, to rob and always
tiro tho building at onco lu order to keep the
family from detecting their robbery. Keehlo
audi o'pless women and children were trio ed
llkehrutes, told lusultlugl)1ln got out or bum
even tho sick wore not spared. Several In
valids had to be carried out as the red Humes
licked their couohes. Thus the work of de
struction continued for two hours; more than
half the town on llro at once; amid tho wild
glare of the Humes, tho shrieks of the women
and chlldrou, uud often louder than all tho
terrible lilusplieny of tho rebels, conspired to
present such a hcoiio of horror, us has never
been witnessed hy. tho present generation.
No ono was spared save by accident, Tho
widow and the fatherless cried ami pleaded
lu vain that they would lie homeless and
helpless, a rude oulh would close all hoc of
mercy and they would tly to avo tholr lives.
Tho old and the Infirm wero thrust nsldo and
the torch applied In tholr presence. In the
brief space of two hours tho greater portion
of tho town, Its ohlo f wraith and business, Us
capital and oleganro woro devoured by a bur
barons foe, In n single dy nearly throe mil
lions of dollars worth of properly wero de
stroyed, and thrco thousand human Isdngs,
mostly women an I children Ion homeless
and ihmiiioIoss, Of course W. llealon and his
family wero In a slate of great fear as house
after house was tired near their home. As
tho roMs had fired no churches It was hoped
that tho parsntiugt would escape destruction,
as yet their church luvl not beon built. The
family had not long to wait, as the house next
tothom was ou flroand tho Humes bursting
from tho roof ullolnliu. Hastily selecting
such things as could hoovrrled lu tholr bauds
and which might bo used to make bis wife
and children comfortable for the night, they
left their house to tho cruel Humes. Thoy
oou reached tho public highway which led
Inlhndlreittlon of -Uilpponshurg and tlienco
to Harrlshurg, tho former place was eleven
mllosillstnut. There they hoped to find friends
and shelter. The day was exceedingly warm,
one of tho hottest In July, Unaccustomed In
the fatigue of long Journeys on fool, they
wero soon ovorpowod by tho Client, but they
wero lu haste to roach the open country
where thoy could hn suf.) from tho further
outrages of the enemy. They soon found a sha
dy place near a stream of water, where they
stoppeil awhile to rest, whllo they look roun-
ell aslo their future movements. W. I teuton
had many friends among tho farmers and It
was determined that the larger boys should
bo left In tho cure of a Mr. Freeman, whose
farm was only a few miles from Hhlppens
burg. It was lute lu tho evening when the
wenrv travelers, now loft destitute, reached
the home of their hospitable friend. He had
heard of thodlsastcr and had seen the road
crowded with the Heclng refugees he had al
ready taken Into his burn a iiiimherof women
and children. W. llealon and his family
were ns tenderly cured for as tho cir
cumstances woul I permit. After a hearty
meal, during whhih theexeltlngscenesof the
day wero recounted, the weary travelers were
glnd In rest their limbs, ou beds spread In
the lower rooms of the house. Mvery room
was filled hy those who were so fOrtuuoto as
to Had temporary shelter for the night. The
terrible scenes' of the day nud the excite
ment through which they hnd passed drove
steep from many eves. Devout Ihnnkstilness
went up to the Divine ruler for life preserved,
with no hitter thoui'hs toward the fo , there
punlseinent wns left In Hint whoso voice Is
more terrible In wrath, who bus declared
"vengeance In mine, I will ropov " Imlent
night tin y learned by fugitives rj- Ivlng overy
hour that the rebels had all departed and that
the union forces wero la rapid pursuit. It
was not many months nftor tho scenes hero
related, that tho national armies wero victor
ious over nil the foes of the republic, and tho
nation hnd washed out 111 blood ono of Its
greatest Bins, that of holding their follow
men In the clnlns of slavery, llosldes, the
supremacy of the federal union was restored
ami the rebellious, through great sullerlnsr
went tnimht obedience to tho taws of Clod and
man. First submission to"lho powers that
1)0," wlilch aro ordained of Ood anil noxt tho
loving of our nelghlsirs as ourselves, and tho
doing unto others ns wo would hnvo thorn do
unto us."
As soon ss penco was ngnlu restored to tho
volloy and tho penplo wero assured of protec
tion foi their families and homes, nearly alt
tho fugat Ives returned. A fow of their hus
bands hnd lecii made prisoners by tho enemy
and woro retained as hostages, and it was
moiiv weary months beforo thoy woro ro
leased by an oxchnugo of prisoners. Tholr
siiircrlugs weronftaii extreme from tho cruel
treatment they recolved and tho ohsconroof
sulllclent fond and sholtor all this Intonsl
(led by the llllh ofcrowded encampments and
the Intense heat of a southern cllmnto. Many
never returned, but perished, mlscrnblyln
tho places orthelr confinement. As tho fugi
tives entered tho town whnt a scene of desso-
lotion met their eyes, nothing remained of
their former happy homes but black and
crumbling walls and desolated jrurdens nnd
fields. The patriotic states further north con
tributed lllx-rally towards pressing wants,
they hnd not felt tho Iron heel oftlio war as
tho iKirder slates wero now feeling, and tholr
hearts worn moved wlthcnmpnsslnn. It Istruo
thoy s nt thou andsof nolilo fathers a id soi s
to perish lu hultlo.but tho foo was not at their
doors. The noble stato of Pennsylvania mado
liberal appropriations for tho rebuilding of
tholr homes. Within ayjnruroso a new city,
built ns If by mnglo. by the unsubdued cour-
n go oftlio people. Of course no money could re.
place the precious rcl'cs of the pust.ond works
of art which hnd boon transmitted through
many generations; lumnny Insluuces brought
from their homes In the old world. Tlio
Heatons fully expected to see only tho ruins
of their house, hut to th"lr great surprise nud
Joy thoy found that by tho great exertions of
the neighbors who remalinl, tho drowns
confined to tho house aljolnleg, and beyond
the robbery of a few articles of value n nthor
damage was sustained. Mud Indeed wero tho
stories told him oftheeondurt of the Invaders
who, driven In desperation, by thn tosses thoy
had sustained hv tlio fre'piont inlds of the na
tional forces Into tholr own borders, woro de
termined to icuvonnlv a track of desolation
on tho road of tholr detreat, Tlio house of an
old and feeble man of eighty was entered,
and hceauso his wife earnestly remonstrated
against tho burning, thov fired the room,
hurled her Into It and lockod the door on the
(U'sldo. Her da'igliler rescued her by burst
ing lu tho door beforo her clothing was on
lire. Tho widow of a iiuttonul soldier who
hud no menus of support, got on her knees
and iMnrgeo' to savo her and her little ones
from tho fang of rebel wrath, but while she
wns thus pleading for mercy, they fired her
llttlo house and stole ten dollars, tho only
mniipy slip had In the world. An aged citi
zen, prostrated byslcknesssothut ho was un
ohlo to bo out of bed, plead In vain to I o
spared a ho'rlhlo death In tho Humes of his
own house, but thoy laughed at his tcrrorand
fired the building. Only through the kindly
effort of somo friends ho was curried away to
safety. Thn wife of a Jowolor lay dead, and
although they wero shown tho dead body,
thoy plied the torch ami burned tho house,
A neighbor hold her dying bubo In her arms
and plead lu vain to sparo her house. Such
aro some of tin horrors of civil war, which
oven the high civilization of tho nineteenth
century has not been able to subdue If only
the memory of these sad times will soften
the hearts of tho now generation as thoy rise,
It may bo that peace and good will to all men
may yet prevail.
Thominco pio was a Christ mna favor
