AFTER M4NY YEARS.
A Georgia Bride and Groom Are Reunited
After Years of Separatoin.
When John Harwood brought
his bride home in 1867, and bade
her take possession of the
pretey cottage which he had built
and picturesquely furn'shed for
ber, he was the happiest man in
north Georgia. But s he saw
his wife of two hours or less throw
‘herself in the huge chair and heard
her sob foran hour avd knew that
tears of grief, orsorrow,were being
shed by the sad eyes he loved so
well,a change came over him. He
offered Lis biide sympathy,but she
repeiled him. Another hour of
eryviug was ivdulged in, when he
begged in fones of affection some
explanation of Lis idol’s condact,
she would ofler him nore. She told
himthat she bated Liim, detested him
and in anger at midnight be left the
house, bidding a faithful servant
to go to the cottage and care for
the young bride that he had de
serted.
The most astonished, mortified,
and indignant man in the state,
next morning, was honest Farmer
Murray. His daughter, who the
aay belore . had welded the
bandson est and most progp:rous
young man in the county,had come
back to his roof. :
“Den’t blame John, papa,” was
the only explanation he received un
til the evin’ng mail canie, bringing
to him adecdef alf the lanl aud
property of Joln Harweod to Mrs,
Lettis Mourray Hsarwood. The
property was worth $60,600. No
other explanation followed.
In 1880 people were dropping
dead ir droves in New York frem

ter the driver of a florist’s wagon
succumbed to the heat. Tender
hands picked him up and he was
carried to the hoapital, where he
scemed to recover rapidly. In a

Lere‘t of reason—lie asked the at
tendent for pen and paper eand
hurriedly writing a few Jines asked
that the suprmtendent of the hos
pital be rcquested to mail it for
him. A few moments later Ile
stricken man wentinto convulsions
and an hour luter died. The lct- }
ter was handed to the superinten< l
dent next morning. e paled. It
was addressed to Lis wife, for Joha
H..rwood wasin chargze of the hus—

went down stairs and gazed at the
features of the dead wagon driver.

coniposure and continued at his
work of illustration and explanation:
That afternoonhe received a note
asking him to call at a private res
idence. The missive was sizned,
“Lettie Murray Harwood,” and di
rected to “John Harwood, Exposi
tion Grounds.” The messenger had
been given minute directionsas to
whom to deliver it.
Wken John Harwood was ushered
into the handsome parlors of ove
of te most hospitable homes in
Augusta that night he looked like
one dazed. A few minutes atter
wards a servant entered and han
ded him this letter: ; 1

W. C. Kendrick,
TWO PICTURES OF MUROCCO.
The Korrors of @ Prison and the Splen
dors of ‘a Palcce.
It is a very common remark
among luropean visitors when
they come here for the first time
that “ne one could believe in such
savagery existing actually within
sight of Gibraltar.” Only two morn
ings agol went into one of the local
Moorish prisons--a perfect palace
compared with some of those in the
interior, as [ am assured by many
wen who know them well—and
what I saw there f shall not easi:
ly forgot. The fortress in which
the prison stood was approached
by a very -¢teep inclive paved with
cobblestones, which had Leen pol
ished by generations of bare feet
to a degree of slipperness that als
most made good {he old joke of
“climb up a cloud and slide down
by the rainbow.” All at ouce we
turned sharply round a corner;
and my interpreter (and old Jew,
ot Morocco), pointed Lis® bony
torefinger at a long stone doo’rway
to which a flight of wellsworn steps
led up, andsaid, “Prison.” . The
entrance itself svemed so dark afte#
the bliading glare outside that on
ly by slow dagreas did I begin to
make oat & stout wooden door or
partition just belind the narrow
vestibule in which the two warders
gat. To the upper part of this
door was a round hole about the
size of a stateroom port aboard an
Atlantic steamer, and framed in
this opening was a face which,
gaunt. hagzeard, ghaslty, with its
deep bronze tint blancled to a sick
ly white and its hollow eyes glassy
with the blankness of depair,seem -
ed to have nothing human left save
its shape.
It was only little by little that
I realized the full hoveor of this
kideous spectacle. This man was
a prizoner, and the ouly breath of
air that ever reached him this
stifling den was through the kole
against which he had pressed his
wasted fice with a teverish eager
ness that was {righttul to sece.—
Through a similar hole on one side
of the doorway I looked down into
a somewhat lurger cell. chained to
the heavy stone pillars of which
lay several bon g.half-clad, spectral
fizures, motionless snd silent as
the stores to which they were fet
tered, but with a hell-fire of un~
guenchable hatred in the depths of
their cunken eyes, Just then
two more skeleton faces thrust
themselves forward elose 9 the airs
hole of 'he smaller eell, and I then
vereeived with secret horror that
their stifling den,which af hest con
tained not encugh air for one pris
aner, was actuslly tenanted by
three. At the same moment &
lean brown hand pushed through
the hole a small wicherwork pouch
with- a hanging loop of the same
material, by which it mizht

esqueness’ of its own which was by
1o means unattractive,
“They make these things in the
pricon,” said my interpreter, in an- 1
swer to my inquiring look, “and
then sell them, s¢ az to get some
money to buy food for themselves?””
“T'o buy food for themselves?” ech
oed I. “You don’t mean tosay
that these men are imprisoned
without any food except what they
can pick up,” *‘Just sO,” answers
ed the Jew, with aslight smile at
my ignorance 5 the government
allows them water, of course, oths
erwise they would simply die on
the spot ; but as for food, those
vthohave families orTriends are sup
pliel by them, and those who
haven’t must just get along the best
way they can”
The next day, as if to completo
the picture, I paid a visit to the'
man by whosé authority these’
things were done. With a certain
grim appropriiatenass, liis palaceis
olose besido the prison itself, a

within,and through the semisdarks
ness that filled the interior ot the
halt we could just catch a glimpse
of a group of men standing in at
titudes ot deep respect arounda
shadowy figure seated on a kind
of divan, The Bassa greeted me
courteously ia flowing Arabia
