A?rtK the stranger called at the post

in a corner of Mr. lJarnabee's store, and
asked for a letter for Joseph Billings;
"uul what is more, he got one.
It had the name of a 2jw York bank

XeAicck, which ho immediately got

tbft tvas Jward twelve o'clock one
Fred Ioriug crept out of the bulkhead
of his father's cellar, and, making aura
that he was not observed, climbed a
fence and went through the Holds to
the back of a neighbors house. Then
he picked np a pebble and threw It
against a second-story window. The
window was raised and a head thrust
out.
"Is it you, Fred?'
" Yes, be quick."
" All ready," whispered Ros. and
slipping through the window to the
shed beneath, he dropped to the ground
by aid of tho water-spout. The two
went on to a by-lane, whore they were
presently joined by two other boys
whom they greeted as Briuley and
Tubbs.
"Have you found out where ho
sleeps?" asked Fred.
" Yes, on the second floor: but
there's a grape-vine trellis rizht under
it," answered Tubbi. I made an er
rand to his room, and found out the lay
of the land. Tho spring is on the right
hand lower pane. Nothing is e.asior
than to break tho glass and roach
through."
"Do you suppose hoMl resist?" asked
Ross.
' No doubt ho will if wo give him a
chance," said IJrinlcy, coolly, " How
ever, if you're getting seared, you'd
better go homo to your mother."
"I'm not scared!" said Ross, indig
nantly; but it's as well to bo prepared,
and Lamar is no coward."
"That remains to bo proved," said
JJrinley. " See if he doesn't beg beforo
wo get through with him."
"Have you brought tho mahks?"
asked Fred.
" I have thorn," saidTiibb?. "atidths
cord, too," displaying the articles to his
companions.
And now you will wonder what deed
of darkness these four ouths were con
templating, that they should steal forth
at midnight with mask and cord, but
let mo hasten to assure you that you are
not reading a tale of lapiueand murder,
but only of a soho'il-boy frolic; at least,
fo they consideied it.
Not to be behind certain higher insti
tutions, they were about to haze a new
student, who had had the misfortune to
render himself unpopular, by keeping
aloof from his fellow-students, which
they chose to attribute to pride and
fancied superiority.
They say he's a Spaniard," said
J J ri ul 03'.
' He mav bo of Spanish descent, but
he hails from Georgia," said Fred.
He's black enough to be of African
descent," said Tubbs.
"Anil uglv enough to bo the missing
link,' sa:d Ross, at which there was a
general laugh.
" Come, boys, this will never do,"
said Hrinley; "It will bo morning be
fore we know it. Now for the mo-lus
operandi
Having trot into the
room
to do
and tied him fast, what are wo
Willi him?"
Look here, fellows, I'vo a plan."
said Fred. "Don't let's hurt him; but
let's set him up in the arm-chair, and
dress him for an old woman. I've
brought grandma's cap and spectacles."
"Too tame," said l'.rinlev; "Isay,
give him a ducking first, and then put
him in costume if 3'ou like."
These, and other plan?, all more or
less brutal were suggested, tho final de
cision being in favor of ducking their
victim, anil then securing him in the
academy yard, arrayed in shawl, cap and
spectacles, wiiere ho would be in full
view of the early-rising part of the com
munity in the morning.
Suddenly a voice said, in tones loud,
distinct ami earnest
"I'oys, don't do it."
Thev turned in consternation and sur
prise, for they heard 110 footsteps, and
there stood Old Hillings.
.Roys, don't do it, he repealed.
"Eavesdropping, hey?" said Rrin
ley. who was the first to recover him
self. "Call it eavesdropping, if yon will."
said the old man; "it matters not to mo,
so you'll heed my warning."
"Suppose we don' t choose to heed it,"
said IJrinlc', "what do you propose to
do about it?"
"Nothing," said the old man, and
his voice was more in sorrow than in
anger.
ltriulcy was prepared for threats, and
would have answered them with defi
ance, but to this unexpected reply ho
d"ul not know what to say.
"Is Lamar a friend of yours?" said
Tubbs.
"I have never yet spoken to him,"
said Hillings.
"Then why do you take so much pains
to save him from harm?"
"I do it for your sakes as much as
his."
"lie's trying to frighten us!" cried
Ilriuley. "Ho thinks Lamar will de
fend himself has warned him, per
haps!" "I have not warned him," said the
old man, simply. "Whether he defends
hhnsolf will depend on whether 3011
catch him sleeping or waking. As to
frightening you. why, four against one
is pretty good odds."
Hrinley felt himself color at these
words, and "Fred Loring cried, "That's
true, am how!"
"So it is!" "So it is!" said Tubbs
and Ross.
"Now, boys, take tho advice of a
friend; go home and go to bed, and to
morrow night come to my house and I
will tell you a story," said Old Billings,
sadly. " What say you?"
" I am ready to agree to both propo
sitions," said Fred. " What do you say,
Hrinley?"
"Any way the game is up for to
night," replied he, "and wo maj" as
well disperse. We can't do anything
now."
Tho next day, as Billings was walk
ing homeward through tho woods, a
hand was laid upon Tiis shoulder, and
the dark but expressive face of the new
student appeared beside him.
"Do vou know what you saved mo
from last night?" asked ho, abruptly.
"From nothing worse than being the
subject of some bovish trick, most like
ly." " It is more likely you saved me from
being a murderer," said Lamar. Feel
my arm, sir."
"It's like iron," said tho old man,
surprised.
"There's good muscle for a lad of
seventeen, said Lamar. "Ive bem
cultivating it since I was eight j'ftivs
old. I heard of tho visit inleudec for
me hist night. No matter how Ineard

but 1 knew the fellows wore coming,
and 1 prepared to give them twarm re

part if 1 could have helped, it; but one
can't alwa's be particular on such occa
sions. Thev did not come, and "to-day
I have heard the reason WI13-. I thank
you." .
"And I thank God!' v said Old 11
ings, reverently. " I hope it will jtone
in part but no, we can't atone."
Lamar looked at htm curioy. for
the words sounded to him lik 5ne va

the gazo which met his ow "was calm

"They are coming to seeiie to-night

"Not to-night not withthem," said
Lama-:, "but 1 will comtjsonie time,

"A smouldering -olcail," said the
old man, as he watched he vigorous
form crashing through tV underbrush.
"So here's where thel fellowlives,

Fred Loring, as, ptea long tramp

" Out here, by all means," said one,
to which all agreed. t
"Ho seated, then," said their host,
with a honilable wave of his hand to-
wan! the rocks and stumps which sur
rounded his dwelling. And seated thus,
they listened to the story.
"Hoys. I wasn't always Old Billings.

did. but we had better luck that is to
say, wo had planned tho thing so sud
denly, and kept our secret so well, that
no one arrested us in our course. Wo
called that good luck nt the time.
"All was still and dark when we
reached the house. We called that a
piece of good luck, too. And Lang
fort h's room was on the first tloor,
so there was another point in our favor.
"Not a word was spoken except in
whispers. Wo approached tho window
steaUhil'. It was an old-fashioned
window, and the glass was .small. We
broke two panes beforo wo found the
spring; but we found it, and raised tho
window and entered, ono aftr another
tho four of us 1 first of all.
" It was burglary, and a State-prison
offense, but we c tiled it fun.
"All the noi.se wo had made had not
awakened Laugforth, as we discovered
by striking a match. Thero he lay. his
head a Lttle 011 one side, his arms
folded on his breast.
" Ho hail a pink and white complex
ion, like a girl's, and light hair, which
ho wore a little longer than was tho cm

prize-fighting style, as 3-011 do now.
"There was something so peaceful
and almost girlish in Langforth' s ap
pearance that Strong, tho 3'oungcst and
best of us, said, It's a shame to wake
him.'
" Nonsense! ' said one of tho others,
and I bent over Langforth, and shook
him rudely. He started up, bewildered,
asking what was wanted.
"'Jk aro wauled!' said I, in a
feigned voice.
"What for? What's tho matter?'
ho asked.
" Come with us, and 3'ou'll find out,'
said I; and two or three of us began
dragging him out of bed. At this, he
ened Muriicr: and 1 clapped my
hand over his mouth, telling him to
hush his noise. This, 3011 see, was as
sault and buttery, and punishable l3'
law, but still wo thought it fun.
" We got him out tho window with
out much trouble, for ho offered little
resistance where would have been the
uso?
"Ho was shivering with cold, for it
was a frost3' night, and ho was in his
night-clothes; but when ho complained
of this, wo laughed, and told him not
to bo a babv. lie tried to sa)' some
thing else, but wo neither heard nor
heeded him.
" Well, bo3'3, we dragged him to the
pump and held him under. I seized
the handle. 'O fellows!' he began;
but whatever ho was going to sa3 was
drowned in a stream of water. He
gasped and struggled, but did not tr3 to
speak nnv more.
" Come, lot him up,1 said Strong,
releasing his hold.
" 'One dose more,' said I
cold water won't hurt him.'
" There, now ho takes

" ! believe im soul he's fainted!'
said one.
" 'He's only shamming.' said another.

" Yes. and" get found out by the

StiK we dared not leavo him there,
for fcr ho really had fainted; so, after
some deliberation, a bright thought oc
cuired to us. It was to leave him with
tie Professor of Dust and Ashes,' old
Arose?, who lived in a small cottage in
the rear of the college buildings.
" We carried him there, laid him on
the door-step, knocked loudlv, and then
ran away; not so far, though, but that
wo saw the old man come to tho door,
and heard a colloquy between him and
his wife, Aunt Dinah, in which dem

"Then Ave saw them lift up Lang

not to be used until Christmas Day.
Tho tree is most readil- held in place
!3' boring a hole of sutlicient size in a
heavy and square block of wood. Set
this on a rude platform and cover with
a piece of green baize or produce a
more picturesque effect with a covering
of mosses and lichens. When wax
tapers arc wanting, substitute tho lan
terns of the farm covered with ga--colored
llauuel or tissue paper. Make
festoons of popcorn strung on threads,
from which suspend popcorn balls.
The tree is now rcaihy toioeuivo its

on it should bo given over
to tho charge of ono person to insure
pleasant surprises. In selecting ihesu
gifts leniemoer that bo3's, who have
been keeping down weeds with henv3

ments if of size to suit their strength,

none the less cheerfulh to honich du

here ami there on the green-covered
platform. Knitted mu lifers and mit
tens, fanc3 articles for parlor and bed
room decoration, and confectionery in
tasteful but home-made cornucopias,
will contribute inexpensive gifts.
In a word, with cheerful fires burning
on every hearth, make the house as
bright as possible, and present in ac

commonplace of articles rather than see
tho day go b3 without au interchange of

Postage Stamp Sittings in England.
It will have been seen from tho Post-niastcr-Genfcral's
notification that the
experiment announced last session of
receiving small deposits in postage
stamps has been remarkably successful.
At the Pst-ollice Savings Banks no
sum less than r. shilling "has hitherto
been accepted, and apparently a good
man' people wcro not so indoctrinated
in habits of thrift as to put liy the hum
ble pennies in coin and keep them safe
ly until the shilling limit was reached.
Hence the idea of taking postage stamps,
which are as good as money to the
Post-oflice, and not so temptingly easy
to spend as the coins arc to the humble
capitalist whose frugal habits ma3
chance to sit lightly upon him. The
arrangement mado to attract these de
posits is a very simple one. Forms are
given out to applicants gratis in the
similitude of checks, but divided into
twelve small spaces, each to hold a
stamp; and when ono form has thus
been filled up it will be received as the
deposit of a shilling. As showing how
successful tho experiment has been, it
is announced that, although it has only
been in operation for seven weeks in
ten selected counties, no fewer than
7,030 new accounts have been opened.
It is fair to conclude that if the ar
rangement extended over tho entire
country the number of accounts would
increase in proportion, particularly as
the districts chosen for trial were main
ly agricultural, and contained no dense
aggregations of hunianitj-such as Mid
dlesex, l-aucashire -or Lanarkshire.
The .experiment is intercstimr enom?h
ister prediction of alarmists that thefts
of stamps would be encouraged bv the
regulation has still to be tested.
Whether there is' any foundation for
this apprehension we shall have-better
means of judging when the system is
extended to the whole kingdom as it
will be on and after Mondav next

Various materials have been employed
for constructing floors for poultry
houses, as boat ls or planks, concrete,
nsphaltum, brick and stone. The first
named are objectionable, as tho3' ab
sorb portions of the manure dropped
bv fowls, and. in consequence, givo oil
vile and unhealthy odors when tho
temperature becomes warm. Floors
made in part of aphaltum ore liable to
become stickv during the hot weather of
summer. Floors made of concrete,

any kind of earth so that it 'is elevated
sufficiently to bo out of tho way of
surface water. Whatever kind of
earth is employed should be packed
close, so that it ni.-y bo swept with a
stiff broom as occasion requires. It is
bast to have the floor covered with pul
varized peat, ashes, or road scrapings,
with which the droppings of the fowls
may be mixed. As often as once a
week all this loose material should bo
swept up and put in barrels for use as
manure.
Feeding Horses.
Moke horses are annually killed or in
jured by over-fecdmg anil by injudi
cious feeding than by starving" or most
other causes. In horses we can detect
as many different temperaments and
dispositions as in man, though but few
horse-owners take this fact into con
sideration in the management of their
horses, particularly in that part of it
relating to food and feeding. Some
horses are natural gluttons, and they
must be seen to carefully or they will,
at times, bo apt to seriously injure
themselves b- feeding too fast, while
much of the food the consume will
pass through them undigested, for
the simple reason tbat it is swallowed
before it has boen properly masticated.
We like to see what is termed a "good
feeder," (one who does not mince or
pick over his food) but then we are not
at at all partial to tho ravenous one.
Such a horse as the .latter named will
dive into his feed with mouth wide open,
and invariably take more at a mouthful
than he can either hold in his mouth or
properly masticate. There are several
was to" fix ,such fellows, one way be
ing to mix some little fine hay with his
oats, while moistening the oats or feed
ing cut food proveais him from pan
dering to his greedv uropensitvv. A
horse with a delicate appetite is usual!
a tender, delicate animal, and not at all
desirable.
The trouble with nibs? persons who,
keep horsss, tu matter whether on farm
for lan work, or for driving' purposes,
is they feed too much hay; land to this
cause can he. attributed th.e .general
sluggishness often manifested by the
horses cntil they-bave been -working; a
conple.of hours," whUe.therwiidris also
much impaired,. Night is the only timer
when hay should be .fed, especially to
animals -used for quickwbrk. Even the
slowplow team should Jiave but' little
liay at the morning -and nooa feeds, but
give them a generous sapply at the even
ing meal. Uy" doing" this, your hoise
will keep in better spirits and condition,
and free from any tendency to "Psf "
