It wm midmmuaer, sttd a moonlit
night t and Km Brown, wry rosy, largeeyed,
and pretty, mt upon the-plana,
enjoying tho fre*h incense of the mountain
Mooite, and, it la to bo feared, another
incense, which was not so fresh, nor
8uiteaa innocent. Bedde her sal Colonel
tmbottlo mid Judge Boowpolntor, and
a later addition to her court, in tho
shape of a foreign tourist. She wan in
good spirits.
"Whatdo you eee down th? rowdl"
inquired the gallant Coloucl, who had
been conscious, for tho Inst lew minute*,
that Mr*. Brown's attention wa* diverted.
'" Du*t," said Mi*. liiown, with a
sigh. "Only- Sinter Anne's flock of
sheep.'" '
The Colonel, whoso literary recollections
did not extend farther Dock than
last week's t>at>er. tbok a mn
viow*. ".It ain't sheep," he continued;
" it's a horseman. Judge, ain't that Jnck
Hamlin's gray r"
But tho Judge, didn't know; and, as
Mrs. Brown suggested, the air was grow- j
ing too cold for further investigations,
they retired to tho parlor. *
' Mr. Brown was in the Citable, whore
he generally retired after dinner. Perhaps
it was to show his contempt f?r his
wife's companions; perhaps, like other
weak natures, he found pleasure in tho
exercise of absolute power over inferior
animals. He had a'certain gratification
in tho training of a chestnut marc, whom
he could beat or caress as pleased him,
which he couldn't do with Mrs. Brown.
It was here that he recognized a certain
gray horse which had just como in, and,
looking a little farther on, found his
rider. Rrown'sgrcetiug was cordial and
hearty; Mr. Hamlin's somewhat re
atrainea. Hat at Brown's urgent request,
lie followed him up tho back stairs,
to a narrow corridor, and thence to a
small room looking out upon tho stableyard.
It was plainly furnished with a
bed, a tabic, a few chairs, and a rack for
guns and whips.
"This yers my home, Jack," said
Brown, with a sign, as he threw himself
upon . the bod, and motioned his companion
to a chair. " Her room's t'other
end of tho hall. It's mor'n six months
since we've lived together, or mot, except
at meals. It's mighty rough papers on
the head of tho house?ain titV" hesaid,
Rrith a forced laugh. " But I'm glad to
$eo ye, Jack, d? glad," and he reached
from the bod, and again shook tho unresponsive
hand of Jack Hamlin.
"I brought ye up here, for I didn't

Mr. Hamlin did not avail himself of
he information. Brown, ofc Calaveras,
turned his face to the wall, and coninued:
"If I didn't love tl\e woman, Jack, I
vouldn't mind, But it's loVittgheri and
eeing her, day arter day, goin* on at this 1
ate, and no one to put down the brake: ]
hat's what gits me! But I'm glad to j

In tho darkness ho groped about until *

"'But that ain't all, Jack; and it's (

Ho continued to hold it until it was consumed,

watohed it as it fell, and then returned
to his friend
" Old man," he said, placing liiB hands
upon Brown's shoulders," in ten minutes
I'll be on the road, and gone like that

Don't whine because you can't bo a

?and treat hor liko a woman. Don't bo

Ho fore himself from Brown's grasp,
and leaped down th9 stairs like a deer.
At the stable door ho collared the halfslooping

really concerned in his welfare.

which a star just loosed from its Brethren
was trailing a stream of fire.
' But, ttarly that; morning, the dwellers
by the Wingdam turnpike, miles away,

They who were asleep, turned

Chicago, Feb. 10, 1870.
The Living Things wo Breathe. j
Great interest has been excited in En- i
gland lately by a lecture delivered by ]
the eminent physician, Prof. Tyndall.
The subject was " Haze and Dust." In" c
a series of very striking and beautiful ex- <
periraents he exhibited the effect of t
n gut upon the dost particles of the air, i
and the powerful reflective properties be- c
longing to them. Hfi showed now these
particles could be burned out by heat, c
and how the atmosphere could -also be
cleared of them by passing it through a e
filter of cotton wool. Finally, he dwelt i
upon the injury done to the lungs, and c
consequently to health, by ordinary -3
inorganic dust; but more especially he e
spoke of the organic germs of many diseases
which are supposed to. find their o
way into the human system as invisible
and extremely minute duBt atoms, i:
V - J :
utcntuuu ui wiiii coo air. . 1
The germ theory of epidemic diseases, r
such as tho Afli$tic cholera, scarlet fever, g
typhus, and all malarious fevers, is by
no means a new one. It has long been
advocated as tho best attainable explar e
nation of epidemic phenomena. Phy- y
sicians, however, are not unanimous in a
its favor, and many scientific men say h
that the alleged existence of disease si
germs in tho air is as yet-merely an Assumption
which must, no- proved -before tl
wo can reason upon the subject. a
Hut Professor-Tyiulall has at'least
shown that there are myriads of living
particles?that is, living in the same ^
sense as plants live, and perhaps, as ani- ,8'
mals also?floating about in the atmos
puero ot ail great cities; and that in a:
London a man breathes into his lungs ?
about thirty-seven and a half millions of **
those living germs iti the space of ten
hours.' Certainly this foot, taken in Qon11
cation with many7 others previously
known, gjreatly strengthens the proba
bility. in favor of the germ theory of disease
and if,v with Professor Tyndall, we
assume it to be truo.tho question at once "
arisen, how can we guard againstthe en- *e
trance of theso dangerous partiolea into
tbebody* ? 95
m course all or^anio germs cannot be
regarded'-as certainly productive of in-. hl
jury to the human system, but only such
W arc the seeds of disease. Professor ?
ryndall suggests as the best safeguard . ?
the cottori-wool respirator, placed so as ?2
to cover the mouth aud nostrils. It com- tv
pletely filters the air, and all impurities,
both living and organio, are ' removed in.
passing through it. The distinguished
lecturer said that, j in his' opinion; such.
respirators roust come into general use

Ho made an agreement with an opera- a*

vas sent to Glasgow at a reduotiou by

Ono night he arrived at tho lower
door, at tho foot of tho stain leading up
into the telegraph office. The door was 8tl

The telegraph office waa wot nn ^ *?

The operator up stain* yawned and
looked at his watch. " Jenkins won't bo

And thoro was poor Jenkins all the tt'

"Hillo! up there !"Tio cried, looking

" What's the row ?' said a policeman "al
