At this moment I must confess ; thiit terror got the best of reason, and i that my shivering increased*- with alarming violence as 1 continued to ■gaze on the approaching object, I could imagine no natural cause lor which it was possible that any one could be traversing that path at such ' an hour. The figure suddenly stopped, and stood with its buck towards me. J saw thut it was dressed in a soldier's uniform. The scarlet clothes showed in tho moonlight; the glittering huts tons, and the sword hanging from tl^g belt, till convinced me that the ap- pufiiidn wove' the dress of un officer in the army. • Musgrave's prediction rushed back to my mind, and in the confusion of the moment 1 was allnost inclined tq admit its truth. It is triie that I never had seen .the young' soldier who find been the subject of it,.but the coincidence was so strong as to stagger me. Moonlight always gives a strange pallor to the human face, and this, aided perhaps by my excit ed fancy,-gave-te- tliut, of the silent- figure beloie a pullid, deathlike ap- peuranoV. 1 suddenly remembered the duty which I had consented to perform, and, subduing with a strong effort the panic which had seized me, I stepped forward and called out “Who goes there?’’. “A friend,’’ replied the figure in a bourse but certainly naturul voice. “What do you seek here .at this hopv-of the-night ?’’ I asked. “Before I answer you,” replied the apparition, “Ibt me ask what right you have to question” me ?” ----u-1 am,” J said, “the curate of tins p*ct of bin visits, and dim was <L sir- • mw of knowing Bomething of the fu. j turn.

The great point to be secured in stacking hay is to keep tb s center the highest. If this is done, water can.not penetrate in Hu stack, but will find its'way to the outside under tiie most unfavorable circmrmtances. If on the other han I, the confer is hollow, the water must drain into the center, and so ruin 1 the stack. An excellent way to build a stack is. to set a tall sapling firmly in the ground, with a foundation of rails around it; then begin at the center, and place the hay about tlie pole, giadually sprea ling,,. until the edge of the basc-is reached. Continue 1.lidding up thestack, the highest in the <e .teraround the pole. As the stapk’ i-e ties,'heputs desinks moie'Jian th • center', zaiid helps to make the slack better. Tiro top of the stack is tin- 'shed by fastening.a covering .of b.ay to the poll*, with hay bands wound firmly around it.. A. stack so made will ’not leak, and even clover- hay .may be safely stacked in this manner, becausp the water must, make its’, way to the outside by the force of gravity, amL escape there by drop ping to tlie.ground clear of the stack. —■?-American Agricidtnrist for -.
