The clash was so loud that it v.im distinctly heard in Tanilvitle, c. mne away, a:.d in the face of a strung wind Immediately cries for liolp arose from , very car, intermingled with tlie groans "? iho woniuled. The night, happily, .as 11 jt dark, aud in the pale gleam ot tho nvou those who were uninjured prooeded to rescue their loss fortunate l>\-ethren from the ruins. The position of two of the ears, inclined sharply, made this difficult, but more trying and dangerous stil! was tlie recovery of the passengers iu the baggage aud lirst pas: enger ear, which had broken through the ice aud were tilled above the seats with nater. Geuerous help was given by the people of TariiFvi lie. many of whom hastened to the scene upon hearing the crash, while others were summoned by the sharp peals of the church bells. Two long and weary hours were occupied in this work before the last living person had been removed from the wreck, i Many were able to limp painfully away, but for others less fortunate the workers improvised rude sledges, constructed of saplings and cushioned with car seats, upon which the sufferers were drawn across the ice to the shore. All were taken to the cars remaining upon the j track, and those who had been immersed in the water reached them with chatter- ! ing teeth and garments partly frozen to j their benumbed bodies. The living saved, the dead next claimed \ attention. Those not embedded between I the fragments of the wreck were easily j recoverable, for the slow current was sufficiently stroug to sweep the bodies down stream. One l.y one they came to j view in all their ghastliuess. The appearance of the bodies indicated deatli from drowning in every instance, and upon none were therejany indications of wounds or contusions. Later in the day j the wrecking party recovered from the ruins the bodies of five young men, all lying close together. The deceased were on the platform of one of the cars at the t'me of the accident, and as no injuries indicating crushing are apparent it is evident that they were drowned by being pressed uuder the wreckage. Prison Etiquette. "Five Years' Penal Servitude" is the title of a book recently published in London, aud written by "one who endured it." The London Times says: "Two very remarkable pieces of information as to life in a prison comes out in this volume, illustrating the inconsistencies of human nature, and showing that the public feeling, if it may be so termed, in n convict prison mky in some features be as high as in the best ordered community. One is that 'it is noi etiquette among.prisoners to ask a man what he is "in for." If a man wants to be communicative on the subject of his own affairs that is another thing; but until he is uo qu' stions are to be asked.' ltTappears to us that this custom shows i of fpelinff and a resnect for those who may feel repentance and shame for their crimes which few would have expected to find among criminals, and most certainly indicate that those who lay down and those who follow such a rule of conduct cannot be altogether and entirely corrupt and irreclaimable. The other is 'the respect the men paid to those who had the courage to go upon their knees morning and night to praj-.' tie is speaking of his first night in the room in which at that time some of the prisoners at Dartraonr lived in assoeia tion, and he says : " 4 Here were sixty-eight men and two officers. X?>w, who, thought I, will have the moral courage to face sneers and derision, or jokes, and kneel before he begins his day's work or lays his head upon his pillow ? I thought of this just before bed time. Presently a bell sounded. "Tables down," called the warden. ? * ? The warden's voic'.is heard again. "Men who wish to say their prayers, one step to the rear. Silence and order for prayers." Five minutes was the time allowed, and by tu.it time all men had finished their petitions to their Heavenly Father, and Md risen to their feet, resumiucr j>ifti*es iu the ranks. I wasmast agreeably surprised at seeing so many. 1 think, on an average, there wore nearly one-fifth of,the whole. I never onie heard a remark from the most hardened ;a derision or disparagement of thisprac t tee.'" Harriet Lane and "Dolly" Madison. A Washington correspondent says: " Harriet Lane, President Buchanan's niece, who presided over his household, and who is now the wife of Henry Elliott Johnson, a Baltimore merchant, is probably the most beautiful woman who ever lived in the White House. She was a golden blonde with violet eyes, and came to Wiishington after a career of dazzling brilliancy iu the royal court of England. A British man-of-war was named after her by order of her majesty the queen. Her receptions at the White House are remembered as the most brilliant ever known, fftid old residents here will never cease telling of them. "Dolly" Madison was a different woman?more like Mrs. Hayes. She really presided at the White House for sixteen years. During Jefferson's administration, while her husband was secretary of state, and, imv mediately after, during her husband's eight years term as Pres dent. So popular was she, that an act of Congress was passed unanimously conferring upon her i he franking privilege for life, and the Senate unanimously adopted a resolution .-dmitting her to the floor ox its chamber. She was the onlywoman upon whom these honors were ever couierred. " uoiiy " Madison continued to live in Washington jifter lier husband's death, and erected a Louse on .Lafayette square, diagonally opposite from where Charles Sumner iised to live. She died there in 1849, and lipr obituary in the National Intellif/cnccr announced that she was the most popular woman in America Tliey Caught their Do?. Tho Newburgh (N. Y.) Journal says : v couple of young Newburghers were ut hunting with a pointer dog. They . topped at one place and bent over a apiing, to which they attached a snare nd a piece of bait. The thing was arv inged so that when an animal touched the bait the sapling would fly up and he brute be caught in the noose. The ads left their trap and went on, with yes open for other game. Some time . -'pr tiir>v fliif fhmr fine TVflR one.

He was suspended by !i i ue;:k high in the hir, his strusrglings r owing fainter '.ua fainter. At a fa. cable moment he had* slipped away mi his young imisters and gone back 1 r the piece of meat they Jiad left in t < trap. Tho poor brute was almost i.i a-1 when he was cut down. Turkish Romance. Iu the regin of pood Abdul-Aziz, a j young vender of portable drugs in the streets or Constantinople, was surprised one day to catch sight of a delicate feminine hand waving to him from a passing carriage. Before he could so much as hazard a guess as to the identity of the fair mvsterious stranger, the vehicle was souie distance away. "A bold daughter of the Giaour," thought the peripatetic merchant, concluding that it was an audacious coquette, from some one of the hotels frequented by foreign travelers, who had wafted him the half covert salute in a spirit of romautic mischief. A handsome enough fellow hr was, and not unconscious of it; but withal, too stolid to be loug exercised in his fancy by an incident of this description. That afternoon, however, he was followed into his humble home in the suburbs, by a slave of the sultan's liven', who said, tersely : " Your name is Malimoud Damat." The surprised drug vender nodded rather tremulously. "And you are unmarried?" Another nod. "Then," added the imperial slave, "you are commanded by the Princess Emineh to attend at the palace to-morrow, where she will see you." When, after a low bow, this odd messenger iiad departed. Mahmoud was rather more alarmed than flattered at thoeharacter of the summons. The Princess Emiueh, daughter of the late Abdul-Mejid, and niece of the reigniug sultan, was celebrated throughout the whole sublime caliphate for her selfwilled ways and endless eccentricities, and it was popularly believed that the amiable Abdul-Aziz would indulge her iu auv whim for the sake of peace. Had she been married and become the mother of a son during her father's reign, that sou would have succeeded AbdulAziz ; whereas the latter now proposed that his own son should be the next sultan. Thus was Emineh of less royal consequence iu her uncle's court than she might have been ; yet she had her own way in all matters concerning her own ungovernable self, and it was currently reported that 6he took particular delight in all manner of startling extravagances. It was, therefore, with fear and trembling that the unexpectedly honored vender of drugs betook himself to the palace at the appointed hour; nor was he reassured when an officer, after asking his name, bade him follow to the presence of the great Padishah himself. But fear gave way to incredulous exhiliration when Abdul-Aziz, without prelude, conferred upon him the rank of Bey, and then bade him rejoice for that the Princess Emineh had chosen him above an army of noble suitors for her husband ! The prostrate Mahmoud knew not whether to believe his ears or not. Attendants robed him fittingly for the interview, and he was led before the strong-minded niece of the sultan like a man in a dream. Hearing from her own unhesitating lips that she had often beheld him from her carriage until her heart preferred him above every other man she had ever seen, he presented himself anew, and prayed the Prophet that it might not all be an illusion and a vision. I It was no illusion, however. In a week's time the lucky fellow was created a pasha, and in a fortnight the headstroug Emineh married him without public parade of any kind. With the : honeymoon passed away all the bride; groom's awkwardness in the novel situ.'* tion, and his natural shrewdness am good sense resumed full sway. Instead of presuming upon his elevation to tnke part in politics and courtly intrigue, he I took pains to conciliate all parties by a modest, quiet bearing; devoting himself chiefly to certain legitimate business contracts with the government, and i gaining the particular friendship of his wife's brother, Abdul-Hamid. It is sai'1 that he made great sums by bis c m: tracts. Be that as it might, he ir-ini tained a permanent ascendancy, bo; h at ! court and with the public, during all j the changes and disorders preluding tn>% | present Russo-Turkish war. Pojr j Abdul-Aziz was deposed by the turbulent Softas, and committed suicide. | Then came the brief episode of Mourad, | the Princess Emineh's half-brother, who, I after a short lease of power, wentmelanI choly mad, and was placed in a palatiaf | asylum at Taheragan. To him succeed: ed the now reigning sultan, Abul Hamid, after whose accession the influence of Mahmoud Damat became paramount in the highest councils of the Sublime Porte. This, too, although there was a recent breach between the eccentric princess and her low born husband. The sultan upholds his mother-in-law against the passionate |Emineh, and would, it is believed, have forced the i office of grand vizier upon him if he had not been recently invalided by an apo I plectic stroke. But Mourad, the ex; sultan. sides with the princess, ami the i question has assumed the aspect of a hitter political issue between the respective partisans of the half-brothers in Constantinople. Indeed, the anti-court parly of the excited Turkish capital claim that it was through the overwhelming influence of Mahmond Damat in cabinet councils that the line of the Danube was not defended: that Suleiman Pasha was bnffl?d in Shipka Pass, and that reinforcements did not reach Osman Pasha in time to save Plevna. Public irritation under national reverses must find a scapegoat; and in this case it is the now perilously sick ex-vender of nostrums and husbaud of a princess, whose bio graphy, as given here upon current his, toricai authority, sounds like a story i from the Arabian Nights. Lite of the Harriet Lane. A recent issue of the New Orleans Picayune has the following: There is now tied np at the wharf, a little above Jackson street, a three-masted ship, which attracts by the beauty and symmetry of its appearance. She looks like a vessel which is able to cut her way through the water with exceptional speed aud grace, and the facts do not contradict the seemingness. She is sharp and lengthened in build, aud suggests the idea of about sixteen or seventeen knots an hour in a favorable wind. The vessel is now called the Ritchie, and Capt. T. W. Hutchiuson, an able aud experienced officer, is at present and has been for years, her commander. She is now loadiDg for Boston, aud will probable leave by the end of next week. This vessel has got a history which is entwined with that of the late, struggle between the North and the South. Stie was built in 1858, and launched in 1859, and the name Hairiet Lane was conferred in honor of the niece of President Buchanan. She was then a revenue cutter, aidewheel steamer, and performed many offices of honor. In 1862 she was captured at Galveston in an extraordinary way. Approaching the city, protected by seven gufts, she was attacked by two small vessels, the Bayou City and Neptune. Neither craft had a heavy gun on board, but had barricades of cotton piled high, whence they sent the deadly rifleoall to the doomed crew of the Harriet Lane. She responded with her heavy broadsides and succeeded in sinking the Neptune (the wreck of which is yet before Galveston), but she was finally captured, all hands being killed save three, who were badly wounded. At Galveston at the time, un3er the orders of Gen. Magruder, was a Col. Lee. He was a confederate, but he had reason to know that his son was one of the crew of the hapless federal cutter. Obtaining permission to visit the ship, he found that his son was among the the ill-fated three. The only consolation, however, he had was to see the son a few hours afterward die in his arias. Some time afterward, when Capi Hutchinson had assumed command of the vessel, Col. Lee visited it, and cried like a child because of the memories it had awakened. After the capture of the Harriet Lane the confederates used her as a blockade runner between Galveston and Havana. In 1865, when she was in the harbor of Havana, the federal government claimed her from the Spanish, and after considerable redtapeism she was given up. Afterwards .he was Bold and reconstructed,- her boiler being taken out and her wheels removed. She was then made a sailing vessel of, and has since been plying in the merchant service, but the old hull md much of the furniture of the Harriet Lane are still preserved. EXECUTION ItY IMPALEMENT. One Horrible .Method of Administering Juntlre in .Inpnn. A traveler in Japan -writes* One morning while I was at Yokohama I was < informed that a criminal was about to 1 be publicly put to death, and the mor- j ( bid curiosity which has more or less a ( strong hold upon most of us induced me i to sally forth and witness the execution. ] This is what I saw: When I reached 1 the place appointed for carrying into J effect the capital sentence, the unfor- i innate convict, a fine-looking Japanese, 1 st the prime of youth and strength, was 1 anding under a huge post in the mid- ; /lio r\( ? Hftln noKKp. of miards. The ! I post had a crosspiece. Nearly uude, he j i was standing erect, but as motionless as j a statue, while his fearless but dreamy | j eyes gazed straight into the distance be- j fore him, as if* he was looking at some far-off object looming upon a horizon | visible only to his abstracted vision. 1 There was no token of terror in his de- , termined face, no sign of shrinking in his quiescent but tensely strung boily. Presently there was a movement among the little knot of those surrounding him. His jailers moved aside and there strode into the circle a gaunt, repulsive-looking j native, clad from liend to" foot in a dresr, j of dingy yellow. The executioner?for | it was he?was accompanied by a couple ! of jissistauts, who carried some half- J dozen long, round bamboo rods, about a j couple of fingers thick at their largest. > end, and taperiug to half that size at the J 1 other, which was sharply pointed. The j , rods were laid upon the ground, and the trinities of death clapped hold of the liv- j ing statue before them. In a trice the j : human effigy, who made uo attempt at . resistance, and who, as far as I observed, | never even opened his lips, was grimly ! dangling on the post, hi<< arms stretched ; out right and left along the crosspiece. | There was now a slight pause. The exe- j cuticners dailied with the bamboos, and J the poor creature spread-eagled on the post still looked into the shadowy distance, still was dumb; but I thought f I could detect a yellow pallor stealing up his face. Perhaps he was collecting i all his resolution to meet the terrible ordeal he knew wps close upon him. The principal executioner,, who meanwhile had selected a couple of bamboos I to his mind, now stepped to the left side of his expectant victim, spat upon the point of one of his weapons, and with a twisting, pushing motion thrust it easily into the flesh about half-way between the hip and the armpit. The poor wretch upon the cross turned his gaze slowly down upon his tormentor, and his litis sliehtlv ouened. But he made no struggle?lie uttered uo cry. His resolution, his courage, were superhuman. I looked at the executioner. He was calmly continuing to push and wriggle the bamboo further and further into the body. In a couple of minutes, ) though it seemed much longer, the ! bloody point of the instrument emerged from the top of the sufferer's shoulder. There was a slight exclamation of satisfaction from the crowd, just the sort of hum that escapes from those watching a daring swimmer when his head appears above the surface after a long dive; and the fiend at the other end of the bamboo stopped wriggling, let go his hold find stepped back. Now, I thought, he is going to give tne poor creature his conp de gracc. Not a bit of it. He ; crossed to the opposite side of the post, calmly inserted the second weapon in the same spot on the sufferer's other flank, and worked nway till it came out above i the armpit. All this time not a single groan, not one despairing cry for mercy j ^scaped the man thus doubly impaled. | i his liead drooped a littio upon nis cuesi, | ai (1 bis eyes were half-closed, but be wts evidently alive and conscious. At | thi i moment, to my amazement, the executioner and his assistants, picking up , the unused bamboos, began to walk ; awav. "What,"I asked, "is theexecuj tion ended ? Are they going to leave ' the man in that fearful agony?" " Oh, yes," I was told, "all is over. The j criminal is finished with. He will die I presently?in an hour, two hours, or, as | 1 lie seems very strong, perhaps not till j nightfall; but nobody will touch him 1 any more. The bamboos will be left in | him, and when he is quite exhausted ho ' will expire." I could bear no more. I I was powerless to interfere, but, sick at ! i heart, I turned on my heel, loathing the | : barbarous cruelty I had just, witnessed, j ' I learned afterwards that the unfortunate j | wretch lnd lingered ten long hours bej fore Death (which in Japan would seem ! as brutal as Justice) remembered and i released him. S His slow death is accounted for by the 1 fact that a Japanese executioner is carei fully taught to avoid the vital organs of I the criminal he has to impale. The J more slowly the viotim expires, the i greater the reputation of his butcher. ' How Old Japanese Bronzes arc Made. A correspondent of the New York Time# has this in a letter from Kioto, Japan : Bronzes and silks come in for a very large share of the exports of Kioto, and some of the work in bronze is of a superior character. I have heard several amusing stories about bronzes and the way they make them here. A merchant of Kobe saw a pair of very old vases in a Kioto shop ; there was no j doubt about their age, as they were J eaten here and there by verdigris and i the tooth of time?old' Tempus Eda.r | Iteruvi. He was surprised at the low price demanded, and immediately bought them, and then asked the shopkeeper if he had any more. The latter said lie had none, but would make them to order. "I don't want new vases," was the reply; " I want old ones like these." "I'll make them for you," the shopkeeper answered ; " make them all just like these. ' The merchant gave the order, and in n month he had his new antiaues. with the necessary stamp of Tempus Edax. He ordered some more, sent the consignment to London, and had the satisfaction of clearing about 400 per cent, on the investment. The Japanese maker told him that the process of venerablei/.ing bronzes was very simple. " Get strong vinegar," said he, " and boil them in it a few hours, and if you want to make them very old add a little acid." The same process hns long been used at Birmingham in making Waterloo relics and Egyptian antiquities, and the Japanese have not been slow to find it out. They are very clever at imitations of any kind, and if you allow them a little latitude they will improve upon the model. The porcelain factory which I mentioned in a preceeding paragraph had imitations of all kinds of ware from Japan and China, and the proprietor offered to reproduce any sample which could be brought. " You can buy plenty of old ware here," said he, " but yfiu had better have it made, and then you know you are not cheated." Very good and practical advice. A Georgia Girl's Appetite. The Savannah News says : A party of merry girls and boys got on the train at some station between Atlanta and Macon, bound for home. They were laden with packages containing orangeB, apples, and other good things, and in evident disposition to have a pleasant time. Shortly after the train was in motion the packages were opened. The girls were bright, rosy cheeked, spark- j ling-eyed maidens, and ranging in ages ] between sixteen and eighteen yearp. i Their escorts were courteous, manly 1 youths, and having secured seats con- 1 venient for the group, proceeded to en- j joy themselves, utterly oblivious to the j other passengers. One of the young j ladies ate four large apples, and ?om- ' mencing on a paper of oranges, in a few j j minutes diminished the number by five, < nfin** olio /li'cnnflftrl nf fnlltr u I ? mtti YTU1UU DUU \UU^V/L1WM *?**J M ( pound of sponge cake, when her appetite becoming satiated, she settled back in her seat and very gracefully gave her attention to munching goobers, ceasing operations when about a pint of the fragrant' pen* had disappeared. Her friends were successful in demolishing what remained, but, in the opinion of the passengers, this blue-#yed, laughing maiden was entitled to the champion ribbon as a healthy Georgia girl.

A rider was threading hia way over a road hich lay alongthe hills at the base of the lue Ridge Mountains, in the region known as le Piedmont of Virginia, about the sources of ie Rappahannock river. * * * * * * The man himself might be described in the ime language, as far as it would apply. Bound this his age was about twenty-three, his air brown and full in lock, his eye of a grayish lue. * * * * His way quickly brought the traveler to a tream now running over its banks. Slipping asily from his saddle, he tightened the girths, lackened the crupper, and, gently patting his nimal, addressed a few affectionate words to im. Remounting, ho fixed himself firmly in 36 saddle, garnered nis onaie in a manner to npart to his companion his own energy and etermination, and moved into the creek. Turning up tho stream, ho proceeded for bout a hundred yards along the bank, and len struck boldly across in a direct line, with 16 horse's head slanted up current. The depth f tho water did not sensibly increase in the Diirso of eighty yards, and tho stranger was angratulating himself upon the probability of etting over without a wotting, when ttie anilal in two steps increased the depth until he Duld no longer hold his footing, and sprung oldly into tho middle of a deep; rushing hanneL In an instant the rider had seized n>on/i r\f fVio Vioruti in hia 1?ff. VianH an^ lipped smoothly oat of the saddle to tho lower ,de, where ho floated along. Maa and beaut battled bravely with the flood >r a moment, when the former was startled to iel the home flinch and turn with a terrific lort down the current. A quick jerk upon the ift rein served to procure but an instant's ause in the precipitate course of the beast, at in that instant the stranger became aware r another presence by the touch of a slimy bject against bis hand. Raining his head above the neck of the larger, he aiw dimly outlined upon the wavig and shimmoring surface a dark and unde- 1 nable object. The next moment the desperte plunges of tho beast had obstructed his Ision, whon, with the self command of one customed and nerved to the hardship of j thletic sports and a soldier's danger, he vung his leg over the back of the animal and athered himself up in the saddle. Reaching out a hand, he was about to seize ie object of his horror, when it exposed the i hastly features of a woman. 1 For an instant only he hesitated; then, re- ( jvering from the thrill, he- grasped the head i rnily by the loose, flowing, tangled mass of I iven tresses, and raised it above water on the ommel of his saddle. Tnrnintr tiia hfliirl fl.irft.in nn Rtroftm. hfl rA- ( ewed the combat with the tide. Twice it < semed as though man, .woman and beast ; iust all succumb, and twice the noble struggles f the animal cheated the turgid gravo of its 1 ictims. < Finally, the hoofs onco more crunched the < rm bottom of the stream, and ten paces i rought the party safely to the shore. ****** 1 Feeling tlio forehead, ho found it cold; tbe ands were also chilled, but he thought he felt ' slight fluttor of the pulse. Tearing open the , ress, he pressed his hand against the heart . ad found it still warm. ' Ilia efforts to resuscitate her were soon re- 1 arded, and, after a few moments, the woman j lade an attempt to speak, which resulted, owever, only in a moaning cry. At this point he began to look for other * distance, when he observed a light upon the c ill above the creek Onco more raising the t ody to the pommel of the .saddle and mountig behind it, ho sought the road. 1 *? ***] One stepped around to receive the woman, \ id another entered the house to procure the 8 imulant " What's this V" said the one who was asaistg the traveler in dismounting the woman. "Send for the nearest physician at once." t They lifted the motionless but reviving form I to the house, and deposited it upon a sofa. r The stimulant was soon brought, and, upon e small portion of it being administered, the 8 Dman indicated ail increased vitality by a r' oken gurgle. This, after a while, gave way s clearer articulation, in which, however, only o Uables were omitted. These were in turn h cceeded by ono or two sharp cries of pain, I lich gradually subsided into a moaning chatr of wailing, incoherent sentences. At this point the stranger, iu raising hia g nd to her bead to brush the tangled hair am her brow, noticed a clot of blood upon e wet skin of his finger ; rubbing it off, he und no trace of a wound. a< "She must be bleeding!" he ejaculated joe if there is a cut anywhere." A.ii examination Boon revealed a ghastly 11 rand, an ugly, gaping abrasion upon the bi t side of the head, a'jove the ear, and just tl hind the temple. The locks were matted er it, and the blood still ouzsd slowly from mouth. t* hi Pending the arrival of a doctor, the stranger h pped the hair from around tho wound, and, &r bathing it with feminine tenderness, he ve the patient over to tho charge of the ln'R of tho house who were in attendance. tc * * ? T * ? L I presume you are the host, sir," said he. ce onc?, addressing tbe elder of the two. "If F< i will be kind en iugh to let me have a bqd, till can get re.4 for an hour or so and dry ' cloth;ng, I shall resume my jonrney under >at obligation to you. Matters of importance je me to lose no timo, and I shall only deuntil my horse can recruit for the balanco my ride. In faot, but for* tho incident of 3ing the unfortunate lady in the creek. I mid liavo continued on the road without isnlting my comfort so far." ' Will you tell me how you happened upon i adven'ure, and how you account for the ue y's wound and present condition ?" 3P .'he traveler gave a brief account of the ?' intH, without, however, throwing any light )n his own identity or business. ' Mav I ask your "name, sir ?" inquired the ? it, whom we will introduce to the reader as ^c , Thornton, or Squire Thornton, bb he was ?.c abed by his neighbors in honor of his being iwice of thopeacc. ti( "I beg pardon for the misconstruction, [y name iB Gaapard Dorer, a ahort while since soldier in the FreDoh service.

After a few moro remarks were passed, the quiro bade his son Eddie conduct the gontlelan to his room and see him well provided for he night # After tho traveler l>ad loft, the vagrant rtill ingered. Shifting his hat restlessly but mehanically, he seemed to resume a conversation rhich had probably been interrupted by the tranger's exit from the stable. "'Pe*rs to mo now"?an expression which ndicafcd the result of some mighty reflection or his calibre?-"Pears to me as he ain't telling he truth.

' Can't say. father, but his resemblance to klr. Dupny at the manor would be noticed by iny one." "Perhaps," suggested the vagrant, "he's a ion of Dupny himself, if half they bring from 'urrin parts is c'rect; 'pears to me he must lave more'none." "And your friend Raoul ain't too good for a 'rand or a lie," chirped the vagrant " We will dispenae with your comments on Jae charactor of my friend," retorted the iquire. "No offence, squire.but'spense orno'spense, [ knows the laws, and alters take care to have jroof afore I says a libel on any man." "What do you know of Raoul Dupuy, villain, ian you dare maintain such a thing concernng his character, which is polluted by your attention of it ?" "Nevermind what I know, squire, so long' is I ain't said it," answered the tramp. ****** " What is your opinion, doctor ?" asked the iquire. It is rather early to ask an opinion about the patient, squire. Tho Bkull is fractured, and it may be necessary to trepan it, if any portion is bearing on tho brain." "Doyou think the blow will permanently affect her brain, or that she will be sound in mind should she recover?" If fViA nrflaanrrt nf t>iA hnnfl nnnn brain be removed, she will doubtless recover her Bonnes. Bat until she is completely wel1 again, and even after, no risk mnst be taken in the case. Absence of excitement or noiae is indispensable, as the slightest mental shock might make her a raving maniac. Blows npon that region of the head nave been known to depi ive persons of the power of speech, and if she ia not kept perfectly quiet, she may recover only to linger out a dumb existence." ****** After breakfast a servant, whom the sqnire had dispatched across the creek upon his tirst arising, returned with the information that Mr Taylor?the gentleman whom the stranger had left at his gate on the road?would bo over immediately after breakfast Upon the arrival of Mr. Taylor, ho and tho squire retired for a consultation, to which they after awhile called Bandy, tho vagrant They then returned to the traveler, ana. after hearing his account once more, and comparing the time of his leaving Mr. Taylor with that of his arrival at the squire's, they proceeded to the creek in company. Upon their arrival the squire addressed the traveler: " I have taken counsel with Mr. Taylor touching this case, which seems a deep mystery, after all the information we havo been so far able to gather; the lady seems unknown even to Banay, who visits every house in this and the adjoining counties, and you are equally a stranger to us, I consider, however, that you have been fully discharged from any connection with the affair. We must first attempt lo/It* VIflron 19 W ^(IbUUl DUUItWJUJg UVUl IIUV IWUJ MWkDVUI At thin point the doctor came out of the sick room. He stated that the lady had greatly improved during the night, and that the wound was, in all probability, not serious; the lady had even recovered, in a measure, the control of her mental faculties and language, though she was not fully conscious or coherent as yet. * ? * ' * * * The squire, Mr. Taylor, the traveler and the doctor together proceeded to the bedside of the unfortunate woman, the s'ranger?being assured of his release by the words of the squire?first ordering a servant to bring his horse to the door before leaving the piazz?. Upon reaching tha bed the woman opened her eyes, and, Beeing the kind, manly faces of tho squire and Mr. Taylor, she faintly smiled, and ran her eyes over the rest of the group. She passed the doctor wit aout any variance of expression, and then rested them upon the face of the stranger. The eyes becames set in a horrible stare, the light forsook them, the pupils dilate 1; she raised herself to a sitting posture by a convulsive movement of the arms ; then, crouching to her knees and throwing herself wildly down on her face, she shrieked out with a curdling moan: " Oh, oh, Dupuy! don't, don't!" and consciousness once more left her. Despite his self-command, the traveler paled. He at once retired with the gentlemen, however, to the piazza. Nothing had passed between the group until the doctor broke a painful constraint which had fallen upon all. "Gentlemen,' said he, "the worst mishap that could befall this unfortunate lady has Just occurred through her having seen this gentleman. Mr. Dnrer. She is a ravins maniac. She may die she may recover after a lingering illness; but, in any event, she will be fortunate if she ever recovers her reason. Darkness has settled upon her brain for a long night, which mav never be followed by the dawn. "To what, doctor," asked the squire, "do you attribute her shock ?" "Sho was evidently stricken with horror at the sight of Mr. Durer, whom, from nip knowledge of the laws of the human brain, she has in some way associated with the violence which has been done her, to her great terror. There was a pause, a painful lulL Then the squire spoke to Durer. "The case, sir, has taken a new turn. You will not be surprised that I conclude it my duty to commit you, to await further development* in the matter. * * * * * * Upon the last syllable he Btrode from the piazza, booted and Bpnrred, his steps clanging an echo to his voice. One spring and he was vaulted into his waddle; he brushes away the servant who holds his bit with imperial disdain, Mid turns his horse at the gate. The animal clears ic with the activity and fire of his master, gathers himself on the other aide, and before the squire can recover from the stupor of amazement, is off liko the wind.

Although I have generally a great objection o patent medicines, I can but say in justice to )r. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry that it is a emedy of superior value for pulmonary disases. I have tea e use of this preparation for everal years, and it has proved to be very eliablo and efficacious in the treatment of evere and long standing coughs. I know of ne patient, now in comfortable health, who as telcen this remedy, and who but for its use, consider, would not now be living. R. Fellows, M.

" A word fitly spoken is like appleB of gold in pictures of silver." When the oody becomes diseased, the mind, is thereby necessarily influenced. National wars, state dissensions, neighborhood broils, and family differences, are more frequently than otherwise the feBtyt of disease and disordered WttBtltutibiiB. When the body is suffering, the mind* acting in sympathy, will become irritated and perplexed. When tfi*? physical system is in health, the mind perceives ihings in their true light, and the disposition assumes a very different phase. Nothing more directly tends to destroy the happy, cheerful disposition, of a womaD, and render her peevish, nervous and fretful, than a constant endurance of uterine disorders. The diseases peculiar to women take away the elasticity and buoyancy of health and reduce her body and mind to a mere wreck. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a real peacemaker in ? family. No woman suffering from nteriuc disorders can afford to be without this remedy. The Favorite Prescription saves unnecessary doctor bills, prevents divorces, wards off suicides, brines backbuov&nt. iovous feelings, restores the woman to health, and her family to happiness. It is sold by all druggists. Happy Influence of a Great Specific. For the preservation or recovery of health and strength, the diet should be wholesome and nutritions. When it happens that the alimentary processes aro disturbed by improper or half masticated food, the best remedy for the evil results of abusing the digestive organs is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a most agreeable, prompt and gentle remedy for dyspeptda, and for i he bilious and evacuative irregularities which result from it. The liver and bowels, in common with the stomach, experience its beneflcient influences. The-refuse of the system is carried off through its natural outlet, a heathv flow and seer tion of the bilo, is promoted, and a powerful impetus is given to assimila'i n in consequence of its use. It healthfully stimula es the madder and kidneys when they are inactive, and by its tODic and regulating action fortifies the system against malaria. Dangerous.?It is a dangerous thing to neglect a cough or cold, or any difficulty of the throat or lungs. Lose not a moment in getting a bottle of Johnson's Anodyne Liniment.

Mr. Richardson's opinion of the merits of tills tlrst effort may be jr'ithered fr..m tile following, taken from the Preface to the New Method. "Becoming at length satisfied of tbe truth of these criticisms (by many emiuent composers and professors), and convinced that gruat improvements were obviously needed, I determined. if possible, to remedy the defects. Profiting by the experience and advice of the best practical teachers, I commenced a thorough and critical examination of my fir-t method, and concluded that the only remedy would be to bring out a new work on an improved plan." This new work, substituted for the defective Modern School, was Richardson's New Method for the Pianoforte, which has been revised and re-revised, until it is the most perfect of music buoks, is a great favorite with :he profession, and is the only trQe " Richardson."
