'Lost—lost along o' the wah.'
-Hankins turned and winked in
the direction of the hotel. I saw
hits, and I said to myself, `Perhaps
his wits too are lost on account of
and 'along of tho with.'
- After a few more questions I saw
that it Wag nu more use to iuterro-
bate hit.. further. Cuucurning hi.t
great calamity, Job ILeulcius wits
silent as the grove, aud siloutor, for
a grave will have its head -stone, and
will give tis curious survivors a few
dates. Those I asked seemed to
know nothing of Jub Hankins aud
his sad misfortunes. how had ever
heard his ualno. Oue old darkey

vainly, 'I reckon dura was a Job

Going to the post -office, 1 inquir•

out, awl lie reported afterward that
he had made uumorous inquiries.
" There ain't nu sick a person,' ' he
said, quoting ; ' and I stn quite sure
your 'Job 1-lenkins' is as mythical a
porsouage as Mrs. Martie.' '
And you claim to be a lawyer,
and to know everything !' I excL•tim-
ed, vexedly,
i10 unty laughed.
Wo were in Norfolk partly for
pleasure, but chiefly ou bueiUes8.
My husband's connection with the
Attoruey-General's office at Wash-
ington led hitt to bo sent to look
into several clatters of goveruulont
business at the old Virginia seaport.
Tho night wo were about to take
our departure a seedy gentleman of
large portly habit, dressed its au ill-
fitting, old fashioned 'swallow -tail'
coat and white choker, and carryiug
in his hand a shiuy, awed-woru
beaver hat, came Ile tlpon the piazza
of ,ester - hotel, bowiug profoundly,
and froth, his expression of import
ance, evidently upon a Mission of
great purport. .
Colonel Bloodgood not only re-
tained the old-fashioned swallow-
tail and the white choker and black
stock of other days, but his niannora
also savored of ante-bellum times.
He was exceedingly polite to me;
bowing, first on one foot and theu
on the other, fit least four tithes,
hoping that madam was well, hop-
ing .that madam would pardon hie
intrusion, hoping that madam did
not mind a • ' cigyar' out-of-doors,
hoping that madam would not dis-
turbherself while he and her hus-
band discussed a matter of busi-
ness
We had heat(' of the doughty
colonel as 0 recent addition to the
Norfolk lar. He had come down
from a shall iuterior Virginia vil-
lage, where pettifogging had ceased
to be profitable, to the seaport,
'whore his burning eloquence, his
flights of oratory, his impudence;
,lis ora rotundo manlier, had made
'him the delight and the butt of the
town. ' We had been told of several
practical jokes perpetrated upon
him by his briefless associates—of a
mock trial, in which he was gravely
tried and found guilty of breach of
promise; of a candidacy for justice
of the peace—over which the town
had hardly yet ceased laughing,sand
we wero prepared to receil'e the
colonel in a spirit of friendly inter-
eet.
My husbaud has come to expect
that every Southern gentleman
whom he sleets will have some sort
of a claitn, good, bad, or indifferent,
against the government, and arising
in some way out of the late war.
Ile betrayed uo surprise, therefore,
when Colonel Bloodgood, after a
number of preliminary excursions
+Concerning the weather, poii1ice,
and tho attractive ftttere; o1' Nur
folk, plunged .in media rex, and
stated that ho wished to have a few
plain words coucorning certain im-
portant matters of public notoriety
with the representative of ' that
government which is founded on
justice, on right, its the Northern
Seward had remarked, upon the
higher law."
Colonel Iiloodgoofl had sot hie
broad -brimmed, well worn beaver
hat upon the floor beside his chair,
and in it, be placed his red bandanna.
As ho grew heated in conversation
he reached down and groped for
his hankerchief, and when he had
found it, swashed it over his mighty
forehead in a frenzy of oratory.
His face was flabby, and as he
talked his cheeks shook liko jelly
with the fooling and fervor he threw
vt
into his words. He wore a thin
mustache and imperial ; }lis hair
was lung, and he carried it with
great ,nouutainous wave up over his
high, dome -like forehead, and down
behind his ears, until it almost
reached his shoulders. At his
waistcoat there hung a huge chain
and seal, which occasionally he
jangled between thumb and finger
as he talked.
I wish to express, sah, to you,
representing the guv'Inent a8 you
do—"
Here my husband nervously
denied all authority to speak for
the government save in a very
vague and general way.
' I want to say, sab, that coming
88 you do, sah, from that great
centre of law aud ordah, the seat of
the guv'tueut of the U-nited States,
sah, and boiu' connected with the
equitable and legal powers of that
guv'uaeut, sah, that your statement,
sah, will have weight contorting
matters and things. Yes, sah,
weight !'
Again my hush mil uttered a
feeble disclaimer.
A vast wave of Colonel Blood -
good's vast right, arra. ' Don't
deny it salt. And modesty is_ a
virtue which mightily becomes a
maid, but rarely adds a fiatte• ing
touch, sah, to roan. As I was
sayin', sah, of tho claims which
have beeu placed in my hands
agaiust the U-nited States, I will,
with your permission, sah, and pro•
vidod madam will not regyard my
intrusion upou you at this time as
entirely unwellati'ted—I will, sah,
first speak of those claims irisin'
out of an' by an' on account of the
Federal throot's, salt, at N uIrik,
My husband iut.orrnpted nervous.
ly. ' 1 don't want to hefts' about
them,' he said. ' I ant sure 1 can't
be of any service. Congress itttonds
to them. Are there nu claims of a
different character requiring ,some
judicial preliminary examination V
A polite stare on part of the
colonel. It is your wiah, then, yo'
houaht to take up a different class
of cases?'
rjt hesbiand smiled at the slip
which applied to him tho judicial
ermine and character, and nodded.
`'Then, yo' honah, I will put one
side the claims of several distin-
guished citizens who have empower-
ed me to act for them in regyard to
the occupatiou of Nuti'lk by the
Federal throops, an' 1 will cone at
once to the case of the claim of 11r.

who lost, it may be said, his all, by,
through, and on account of the
neg1eci;fcarltlessuoss, and harmful
inteutiou of the U nits& •Status
guv'ment. , Yes, sah,!'
I pricked up Lily ears and leaned
forward as I heard the name of Job
Hen-kius mentioned. Was I not to
learn bow it happened that the loss
occurrrd
Seeing lee becoming interested,
as well as several people at the
hotel who drew near, Colonel
Bloodgood sat hick in his chair and
squared himself, as it were, for a
great effort. The Southern petti-
fogger is always ready prepared for
a stunip•specch. Wake him up at
any time of the night, and he will
open his mouth aud address his
' feller -citizens" upon almost any
known topic. Colonel Bloodgood
wa8 no exception to the rule, See-
ing several interested listeners
gathered, he opened his month very
wide, talked very loud, and looked
fiercely at my husband and me, as
if wo were the government, and_ it
was we who were interfering in the
course of justice and truth and what
not. A !ranging his bandanna over
his knot', he began :
'Yo'- i -•uah, Job i-ienkius, a
worthy &:. vain of Nuff'lk, has come
to Ino, also a humble citizen, and
iudeed iia, . his connection I May
say that, t: .:•ever gratifying to my-
self may l • my standing at the bah
of this city; I ask for no higher
honah and no greater reward than

willow shall weep o'er my grave it

effect] I say, yo' honah [my bus -
baud had uow become a judge aud
the rest of us a jury to Colonel
Bloodgood], ho has come to mo to
intercede for him with that guv'-
ment which pretends to echo the
cry of justice and right from the
tall sycamores of Virginia to the
forest vales of the Sierra Nevadas !
An' by all that is sacred, yo' honah,
by the sacred fires of old Virginia,
by the ashes of her dead sons, which
lie scattered over her plains and
valleys, and cry with continual
outcry, ' Give us jus -tido !' by tho
alter fires of our fore-fttthors—
' Well, what is tho nature of Job
llenkins's chin 4' asked my hus-
band, interrupting, end gazing at
his watch.
A look of mute expostulation
from the colonel.
,Job lloukins's olaim, sah,' he
said, in a lower voice, as if corning
to himself, and awakening out of
scute gorgoisus day -dream of altar
fires, forefathers, and ashes of Vir-
ginia's sons—'Job Ilonkins's against
the guv'mcnt of the United Status,

principles of our glorious Co: stitn-
tion, an' upon all the fundamental
statoots of our written law, an' upon

z4.tpwritteu law which your Northern

My husband gave a nervous ges-
ture of impatience. 'Have a cigar,
colonel V he said, handing hien an
often case, which the latter abstract-
edly closed aud, to my husband'a
evident consternation aud chagrin,
placed in an inuer pocket of his
swallow -tail and continued :
'—that higher law, higher than
the Constitution, higher than the
body of law its the books, yo' bonah
—upon the principles written there,
an' rout its the books, toy client seeks
for redress and palliation. But let
nue state the fox.' The colonel
waved his bautlauua and blew his
nose.
'Shortly after the wah—it may
have been a period of two years—
Job Heuhius, with hie father au'
mother, who supported hint, moved
into the g'azid old patriarchal State
of Virginia frorn the State of North
Carolina. They moved with ung
mule valued at sevouty•five dollars,
ono set o' harness valued at ten
dollars, nue cook -stove valued at
fifteen dollars, ono bedstead wuth
four dollars, au' a waggiu wuth fifty

ho fetched three spluud' specimens
of old North Carolina stock, its a
waggiu wuth, I say, about fifty dol-
lars. That's what he fetched.'
My husband arose and paced the
piazza nervously.
` An' the sad feature of this case
was it was all they had in the great,
vast, awful world. For they had
been sold out, yo' honah, by the
sheriff. Thick of it. Sold out of
their old North Carolina home—a
home where Job, supported by his
parents, bad lived as a b -o -o -y 1'
(Handkerchief. The colonel aotu•
ally sobbed.) ` So they came to
Null"lk as a refuge—the old roan,
his wife—an estimable chawrniug
lady—a, lady, by Jove, who would
have graced any s'iety—a father,

he lived, beiu' as ho was acquaint-

—when they arrove in N'hfr'Ik they
found it quite impossible to obtain
a house, sah,• so they were forced
against their will to ramp out, as it
were, upon tho old battle -ground
over the hill by the forts—the spot,
I reckon you .• will know, where the
earthwuks were raised by tho Con-
federate troops in '62, sah, about

'I wish to p'int out in my argy-

the chief p'ints o' notoriety about
the forts ; an' Mrs. Henkins—a lady,
by Jove, of most chawtuiug man-
ners, as 1 ant informed, sah—Mrs.
Ilenkins added to the family stip-
end by taking in a light washing.
'One day—let nue hasten to the
dire catatropl]e—about ten o'clock
in the morning ;pit may have been
o Tuesday; no, it wasa Friday—'
'Oh, no matter!" i exclaimed,
impatiently, feeling that the colonel
was at last about to reveal all that I
so longed to hear.
With a graceful wave of his hand
to lee, the colonel resumed : Ono
day they discovered in the fields
what may be termed au object of
interest --an old bum -shell, sah ;
which, sah, wo can prove, yo' honah,
we air certain sure, sah, was fired by
an' out of a tI edited States !Min -boat

That's all.' A. solemu pause, aud •
the colonel began, its a lower voice ;
'An' • we ken prove that that bun -

the IJ -sited States with the intent
to kill.
'When Job 041110 home from the

forty rods on to a veighborin' hill.
Iloziltiali—his hat was found down
on the shore. Mie' Henkins—they
couldn't find 'null o' her to make a
decent funoril."
The colonel paused, wiped his
furejload with his bandanna, drew
his chair near to that of my husband
aud whispered :—"An' Dov wo
want you to give us damages" --(in
a loud shote) "DAMAGES ! Who
can bo 1'uu d who has stuttered more

It was a relief to have that great
voice cease, end those great arms
stop their gesticnlatious, So this
was Job ileukiu's engirt.
Amid the ill concealed laughter
of the spectators the colonel bade us

departure, satiefiod entirely with
my husband's ptonlise to see that
the "government at Washington
would look into it."
