/u#Lii T()WONFWiitt10111,
With pity at My heart, I eked and
;aged Upon the Man before Me; a man,
fellow•being, doomed by a inefioileee
.iourt.martial to die; to leave the bright
.snd beautiful world around him, and to
indiered alone WO "the valley Of the
shadow of death." A nOble-looking uiUii
he wae• fte he stood there, U11111.01red
%Mid the enemies that isurroUnded him,
and a haughty, half -defiant. expreeS104
'Wed upon his handsome, daring face.
He was a Union spy, captured in the
'..joutederaltS limos and bearing upon, his
Serfsesi aeasonable papers tatifffefelat to
have .condemned a regiment. He had
made 409.4. fight, but he was at last
overpowered, the papers found 1311013
him, and, after a 'speedy trial, was con-
demned to die.
I had formed one of the court-martial,
and though I knew that the crime of
being a spy was punishable with death,
yet had I sought to have him spared. I
Was young then, for it was the first -few
months of our Civil War, and I was not
us used t d f blood as I became in
after years ; and, besides, the spy was
young and handsome, by his deportment
evidently a gentleman, and his reckless
bravery had won my admiration.
Nightfall • came wen our camp, and
the following morning the spy was to
be called out and 'shot, I had been ap-
pointed to talc's charge of the execution,
and, seated in my tent, I was thinking,
thinking of the unpleasant duty I was to
-perform on the morrow.'
'Lieutenant, a note for you, sir!'
I started as the orderly's voice broke
the stillness of the night, and, taking the
outstretched note, read: •
"Pardon Me for disturbing your slumbers,
but as YOU command the detachment that will
to -morrow neher roy soul into eternity. I
would see you, if your duties as an officer do
not urge to the contrary. Hoping you will
grant the favor, remain, with respect,
W3cramit HAM."
I carefully read the note over twice,
, and then said to the orderly:
"Say that I will cozne."
• A few moments later, and I Stood in
the presence of the condemned map.
"Mr. Hayes, you Bent for me." •
"I did, lieutenant; and it was be-
cause of your kindness to me during the
trial, and also that I saw in your eyes
pity for my fate •
"I do feel for You, from my heart I do;
and sincerely wish I had not the un-
pleasant duty devolving upon me of
ordering your execution to -morrow." •
"I have a favor to ask of you, sir; to
please order the guard to remove some
(listens% from the tent, as it is a confes-
sion Iwish to make."
i gave a eonnuansi to the guard to re-
tire a few paces, and returning to the
tent, Hayes at once began:
"I am no SPY, sir, but am condemned
under circumstantial evidence. I come
into the Confederate lines to visit my
niother, wholives in the south al-
though alui is Union in her feelings.
After a Visit to her of a few days I start-
ed to return, and by the road -side came
upon a dying man clad as a Confederate
. Imagine my .surprise to recog-
nize in him a noted spy of our own army,
and also recognizing me, he ,informed
me that he had been wounded the night
before, by being fired upon by a party
of Confederate cavalry, and had ridden
on until he _could go no further., He
knew he was to die; and intrusted to my
care the papers he had about him. 1
watched over the poor fellow until be
died, and then hollowing out a shallow
grave,
• "Ilairthire alone in Ma glory,'
and proceeded on my way.
"I have little more to add, excekt that
I am a major of cavalry in the United
States Army, and wish that you will
take rkilY private papers front me aft's)
ani dead and send them to an address I
will give you. Now this is all I ask, er.
cept that you will send nie, pen and ink
by the orderly when you return."
Thus we parted; and finding a scout
awaiting me at my, tent upon my return,
I gave him pen, ink and paper,' and
ordered him to ride over to the tent
where the doomed man was with them,
and to tell the guard to release his hands
of the shackles while he wrote, but to
keep a close watch upon him.
A. few minutes after, I was startled
by a loud shout, one, two, three shotain
rapid succession, and then the rapid
rush of hoofs by ray quarters. was
just in time to see the scout's horse dash
swiftly by and recognize. by the Moon-
light, the commandingform of Wilbui
Hayes, the Union spy, in the saddle.
Men mounted in hothaste, and a Chase
cOmmenced, but the daring soldier
es-
capod, and thus Raved lum from the
death of a spy. •
Upon irmeiry, I learned that when the
amanacles had been removed from his
wrist, Hayes, watching his opportunity,
with two rapid blows struck the guard
and the scout to the ground, and spring-
0.ng lightly on the back of the scout's
here& rode rapidly away, followed by
the shots from the sentinels in the fin-
medihte vIcinity.

"No; that pleasure Is yet to come."
"You thinkit will be a pleasure?"
"If the right man COMM."
"It could not be a pleasure otherwise;
but I ;ea my uncle coming to claim me
for a walk, so you will excuse Ma if I
go to meet him.
"Certainly, my dear. Perfectly love-
ly, as well as perfectly happy," eaid the
gOnerarf3 , she turned again to-
wards the -$4. 10 of ladies who had been
listening to g-thsouesion between herself
and the most beautiful debutante of
the season on the conditions% of happiness.
"Yes,." sighed a plain -looking little
weratin m, an unbecoming brown sewn,
" is easy to be happy, and eyen beauti-
ful, in such costumes,"
"Rat," interrupted the • General's
widow, "Miss Townsend ia. one of those
women who would look well even in ^
• 'shabby gray alpaca at high neon on a
bright day. There would be a sweep
to the skirt and a met to the waist that
! would be imposisible to define or imit-
ate. She is a born dresser, but I am
wondering how long she will be able to
declare herself perfectly happy'?
"She does not know What happiness
is, if, as she says, she has never been in
love," chimed in a bride of three months,
at which the little circle laughed,
and the General's widow 'suggested
that they move their seats to
where they could have a better view of
the inain entrance, as it was time for
the through train from the north to ar-
rive, and it had been whispered that a
Scotch Laird of high: degree, an Eng-
lish Duke, and a well known journalist
were exPected-the Englishman to`join
the exploring party, the journalist to do
• the season for a syndicate, and the
Switch Leird-well, " all sorts of rumors
were afloat tencerning him. One was
that he dressed in kilts, and was follow-
ed by a Highlander in custume also. .
"Did you ever see so many pretty
girls?" said the General's widow, as she
surveyed the merry crowd that filled
the hallways, stairs, and main entrance
of one Of Florida'slendid hotels,
"And Constance To‹:,'W4Sud lfi giate the •
handscimeet there," \•4,4,,
And the General's Widow was right.
Tall and moot divinely fair, in a .gown •
of softest white silk, she reminded one
of the royal moon -flowers, a great bunch
et which she held in her hand. They
were her chosen flower, and by them
she had become known as the moon -
flower belle, .
• "That girl .understands effeote • per-
fectly," thought the General's widow,
as she watched her quietly and appar-
ently without intention seat herself in
an old-fashioned high -back chair that
stood jusrit the foot of the stairway,
and over which a graceful palm 'girded
Its dark green leaves.
There had been uite a dismission be-
t tweem-the General's. -widow, -the Iittlo
-
lady in brown, and the bride as to how

That Miss 'Pownsand deserved their ad-
miration was certain,: and that she never
failed to be in the entrance hall when
the evening coaches 'arrived, faultlessly
gowned in white, and carrying her
favorite flower, was also certain, so that
' the three women were • sure on this par-
ticular evening of enjoYingthe little
tableau they had mentally arranged.
The Englielmian did just what the
General's widow expected he would; he
stopped in the very act of greeting a
friend, readjusted his glatisee, and after
taking a good look, exclaimed;
"Stunning, do you know -stunning 1"
- The writer, the bride • had declared,
would run his hands through his raven
locks -no auburn, no sunlight locks -
call her a goddess, and end in writing
verses to her. As it happened, he caught
sight of her as he looked up from reed-
ing a telegram recalling him to other
and less arduous duties than Writing
verses to tbe belle of the season would
have been. And his locks were. brown
and cut short, he did not go throughthe
running act, althong it did take him a
long time to rend the telegram, as oyer
it he watched the beautiful.girl smiling
and chatting to those about her. Then
turning to the clerk at the desk, he
'eked: .
"Who is the lady in white with t
moon -flowers?"
"Mies Townsend of Te e of
Major TOvviisand, the richest cattle -man
in the countr. Been here two weeks;
Ping to staylTwo more," answered the
authority behind the desk, in a Dknew-
, tone of voice, never
on• es raising his eyes from the book over
which he was bending.
"Thank you, Mr.. Cash; you would
make a tip-top paragrapher,"
"That% all right, old, num; 'when you
Want an introduction to the Major, I will
gladly arrange itfor you," •
AS for the Scotch Laird, he did not
appear, thereby disappointing the little
lady in brown, who had been his them -
pion from the first, declaring that he
would be the one to woo and win.
"My dear, he and his kilts have been
bribed into.staying elsewhere as attrac-
tions," said the General's widow, who
disliked Scotchiesii. NM
