The autumn e were blowing a terrific hurricane. t was raining In torrents. I had the litortune of dining out, not far from ampstead, in one of those numerous abbrbs of ' London where cabs on a r'iny night or on any ordinary morn'ng are as scarce as pleasure yachts on the snmm t of the Rooky Mountains. I was, therefore. toiling ankle deep In water and drenched to the marrow, when suddenly a piercing yoll.rose for a sec ,nd or two above the continuous up. roar of the tempest. I rushed .orward. youn and active policeman, elter - V-nlg at the samne time froin some invii. bi spot,, passed me with lightning ra pidity. I quickly caught up with him. His helmet, however, was already drifting on the overilowed gitter, and he was engaged in fierce contliot. The villain he was fighting was a mechanic of ponderous weight, evidently an ex perleneed ruflian, an old hand at mur deTous assaults, whom he had disturbed in the aet of kioking his wife out of ox ste'ee. 'he unfortunate woman was lying on the ground wailing. Accord lag to the training of the London Sroughs he had anticipated the polico ." ian's Intervention by trying to ram , him down, a t iek'whioh is e \ecuted by vigorously plunging onQ' head in one's adversary's stomaeh. Unlike most of the members of the Motropol tan forco whom I have generally seen taken by that triok, the young pol'oenan wardod ofl the attack, and for it mnolent stunned his foe by lifting h's head with a well-judged blow from the loft. But it was only an ephonora! sueo ss. The villain's head h id cr'mo clear in time out of other mills. The0 policeman was soon overmatl e:f, but he was an ob stinate young Irishman, and he clung to the man as a wounded bloidhound to a wild boar. Ho refu,od to be shaken off. The situation was criti-al. Sud denly a band of half a do:on nien riot ons and drunk, who ha'l jut been turned out from a neighborin;? tavern, came toward us h"wling a low cantata to the incohorent strains of a tin wh istlo. 'lllloa!" exclaimed one o: them, "here is Jim a drunmming on a hobby's attic." " Smash 'is muzzle, Jim," said an other. What are you jawing about?" in terfered a third; "bli ter the M. P'., Jim, and stiff him. aul h ,w." "I'll swing for tho i oily 'og," e0hned the miscreant, by way of show ing him.elf worthy of the encourage ment. The pilieoman. however, id~ not vis ibly care for any thing but his dtt. lIe ~'had just sucecodod in bliwinga wh:st to. 'Upto this tine I had been oiccupiod im trymng to revive the half-mnurderedl womIf an, but now I th 'ight I wv uhd leave h ir' alone for nwhilo.

Jim wRSaseuirod and marched oIlf, arnd one of his fir;indl, having made a deter'mined attempt at rcs uing him, was soon, owing to the arrival of two more constables. thioug.h unwillingly, addeid to the impllortance of the procession. As to myself, I was in vited by the police to comne to the stat tion as witness. T1he crr'andI had but little attraction; the walk had none, as the tempest was still at its highest, uin concernedly juggling with unroofed and unrooted stray fragments. Orgn . The station was reached. Orgn eral condition was so lameneitab)le that it seemed as if the wviso Insucctor might have his doubts as to whoim ho would charge. Jim, however, was eventually put, behind the Iron bars whwo every urisoner is chiargedl before being taken to the cell in which, unless ball is ten dere and accepted, lie spends the hours whhseparate him from his ap)pear'ance beforo the magistrate. A policeman stood by him outeide the bar. Jim was a part;oularly repulsive main, wvith a low frha,acurl of hair on the temple, ai broken nose and a retriever's mouth. The scale on the wail fixed him at fir'e er's horse. His c'lothies were much .torn, arid he exhihitedl other p roots of ~f'the steadiness with which the Irish po0 liceman had played a losing game. Nevertheless, ho boi'o his fate spmrited Iy. He listened contemptuously to the e ause given for his approhension by theo constable who had arrested him t'o the Sinspector. When searehed he grinnedi.

The others come to show sympathy with those of their filends who have had the mis hap to be found out, and to cheer them up as they onter and depart in the poliee van. It is just to add that much has been done lately to render the ap. proaches of the Loudon police courts less ob;ectionable. One of the policemen who had appre hended Jim on the last night, having seen me, took me into oourt. It was a large, clean, lofty room, yet the air was unplea-ant on account of the unwashed (aondition of the greater part of the pub lie present. This public was composed of tilo same set of wanderers described by in friend, the cobbler, as the '"uppet crust." Three or four detectives scat tered in the place quietly watched all about them, taking particular notice of the prisoners at the bar in order to say what they know of them or to make their acquaintance. Jim was introduced and placed at the bar. flis notoriously bad charactet gaied for him the distinction of being attended by an extra policeman. Be fore even noticing the magistrate, he looked around and smiled t:, a few iriends who were in the court, 'he first witness called was the wife of the pris onor. Every one looked for her. Jim's fierce visage turned deadly pale. Three limos the usher called the sanie name, but his summons remained unanswered. Suddenly a policeman entered the court by the public entrance and said a few words to the inspetor sitting by the witness box. 'Ibis oflicial arose and begged the magistrate to hoar the agent, as lie could explain the womnan's The policeman was sworn, and, hav ing g. ven his number, proceeded to re Itoe that., according to li1s instructions, he had gone to the lodgings occupied by the prisoner and his ife to bring the wuoman to court.

The seamstress was p ut in the box. and. having kissed the 1. le, on the conclusion of the perfeet ly uuintolligible words of the oath, ir reverently mumbled as customary by tlh' usher, she was invited by the clerk t I saty what, had happened in the morn ing between horself and the prisoner's wie.She t-h n narrated that early in the morning Jim's wife had got up, i thou;'h looking very i 1 andl harlly able to st and, and that she had told her that she was goin atanay ceantiso she knew that the pAdice would tet."h her, and take her before the court to (iepose against her husbid. she had sub .o nently gono out. and the witness had not hen d of her since.

Six weeks elapsed be:ore the con0st able had utieientily recovered to comec into the eourt. He wvas pale and at il very sickly-looking. A chair was gi :en to him.

On the removal of this said-looking ob'ect, who on hear ing her sentence loll into hysteric , dtim uas put at the bar. Th'le magistrate fir -t asked if anything had beeni heard of the pr;.soner~ wife, and a p)olicemani tlr.st eniteri(d the witness box. llaving been caorin, lhe related that six nights since the botiv of a woiman hatt been taken ut of the IThames. and that it~ had been r intedl at the C3oroner's inquest that it was the b dy or the p)ri-oucr's wife.

"No," said Jim, firmly. Having just heard the magIstrate in flct eighteen months' imprisonnent with hard labor for the theft of a hand kerchief, I was confident that this vii hla, who had half murdlered his wife, and( whose long-trPied cruelty, as it hap - lens frequtently amuont tihe poor peop)le of this country, had( 1 kely dlotorred the unfortunate woman from appearing in court, and might have driven lher to some rash act of despair, and who. furi thiormiore, had seriously- in uired a (con r,table, would have been sent to the assiz,es.

It has, in fact, become Imost a standard rule of uropriety mong us that strangers shouli not ad ress one another without having under-. one the formal process of introduction, nd we are all familiar with the story of Frenchman whom an Englishman had wed from drowning, and who em raced his benefactor with all the effu on of his race, but was met with the nark, almost as chilly as had been Is bath: "Sir, I have not the honor of Dur acquaintance." Hence the almost unbroken silence hich prevails whenever a party of nglishmen strane to each other are athored together. In the crowded ains which go in and out of our capital very morning and evening it is quite nusual to hear a remark made, not so mch because the occupants are on. aged with their newspapers as because iore is -nothing in common between 1em; and if by chance a word should a spoken, it is almost ludicrous to otice the absorbing Interest it creates the hearts of the other passengers. hat the characteristic of reservc is eeply implanted in the Eglih nature sufilciently proved by the familiar tot that, however thoroughly at home nd free and easy peoplc may become i the course of an evening, ropeiit ance )mes next morning, and the meeting tthe streets durin& the (lay is marked y all the old stant -olishness and for iality. Every Englishman's house is is castle, and in nothing is the English ve of privacy better exeiplitied than the change which comes over a man 'hen once he has crossed his own ireshold. le breathes freely, and the ator man by which he is known to the orld is cast off as an actor doffs his age costume. And yet not even the privacy of home always able to banish the English an's reserve. The habit begot of mnCtant assumption in the outer world o often becomes second nat,ure, and is trriedl into tihe family circle; hence the we with which Paterfamlilias is oftenl garded by the olive b.anches. No an is a hero to his own valet, but the nglish father is very often a being of tother world in the eyes of his off ring, and although we may ridicule 0 way in wvhich hirsute foreign intlemen of mature age embrace and 1(ddle one another after an absence of few hours, It is, peCrhaps, regretable at wye do not see a little more of the iglish father loaning on his soin's arm, ilie as to such a childish fr'eak a~s an change of kisses, Young Ilopeful,' ter his first term at a public school, 1s himself very much above thmat.I Much of our character abroad for 'surdly pompous uride is traceab)le to Lr habitual reserve, and( tihe foreigner ,n not be taught to believe that in nine aes out of ten this Is simply the result shyness. Many an Englishman will, kilher than ask a stranger for a lighit *r Is cigar, deprive himself of ab noke. Hie may he longing to scan the >.ntents of a newspaper lying idle on a Llway carriage scat, but because it is te properly of a stranger he will cont nule his journey unsatisfied. Even cotchlmen are mnore sociable and iiomi iu nicative than Engl ishnmen ; Scotch - ion are brothers all t he woHd( over, as ny resident in the East, or Australia, r' Canada, can testify. But English lOnl are strangers to onelt allothdl. At pinch01 theoy will pu11t teir shtoublers as rmly andi solidlly togethar as any men; It. the p)inlch over andl t,he crisis past. icy are once again sfraniger*s and aase to ha:ve thle smallest inbere5t inl Meerschianm. The place most productive of this l.in-~ ral is known to be necar the0 town of aki-scheir, in Anatolla, Asia Mliior. A cent account by Herr Adler states Ilhat Ie preparation of one hundred boxes of eeorsahaum there takes twevo to fifteen orsons two monlths, and costs abiout 120. In Eski-scheir thte averago cost Sthe box of mercantile warn has varied nce 1873 hetween about ?6 to Lit) (last ear it was about thle formler). Ret.fue are can he had at ablout an' eighta of ie price, There are ten qualitis, and ich is to be had in four sizes, there be ig twenty-five to fort,y pieces of tIle tirst 'ze per box, and 450O to 1,500 pieces of 2e foumrth (the box is thlirty inches long, ighti1chbs broad and 15jinches deep. In 2e last two '1e.ados tIle export of nmeer 'haum has considerably increased; from ,000 boxs' in 1855, is hlas risen to 11, 00 in 1881. In Constantinople the trade managed by about fifteen firms--Aus. rian, Bialgarian, Greek, Armnenianl andi 'nrkish-who bring their wares inlto the Tienna market. The large import at ieln ato Vienna may be said to date from be weon 1850 and 1860, 'when the prio nuotion of pipe-bowls and cigar-tips was reatly increased for export to England, 'rance and North America. In 1800t a onsiderkble export of pipes to Sn 'rancisco was first dleveloped1, while irge quantities of cigar-tip)s wvere sent to merica and Australia via Hasmburig. mine then the conditions of the iado aye altered much, chiefly in conms nonce of tIle high duties impoed( ini merica. In that counltry arose, withl se aid of emigrant turners from Austria, hlome industry, which has successfully umpeted with the Vienna pip)o mlanin icture (for the products of which america was previously the best eutio ier). With France and Germany, th.e rnited States obtains the raw prod'lt sainly from_Austria,-OiAg/o Ier'ald. .-Waltsing has only lately irotn in 'oduced at Adrian, Oregon, and a cnung mant broke hisi leg in bis (jit |$09. tWmpt A A T REAT FERIAN REMED Rheumatism, Neula i Sciatica, Lumbago, Backache, Headadle, Toothache.
