of a nightmare. If ow train had
stopped at that minute he would have
been unable to crawl out, and anybody
who had seen him must have suspected
him of a crime. During a quarter oi au
hopr-the poor wretch could neither stir
not thunk lucidly; he could only moan
and tremble. What first recalled him
to himself was the siffht of the things
which the poor girl—no v dead, beyond
doubt—had left in the carriage. There
was a shawl, a traveling bag, a novel;
and on the floor a «n»aU gold watch
without a chain.
The sight of these articles stirred in
unwilling murderer the wengA of aelf-
preservation. Be caught them up oae

Gloom. Nor was anybody else accused.
The porter who had put M^Gloam into
tlie carriage at Oxford had not noticed
that there was a young lady in the com
partment, and, simply owing to this
slight fact of non-observance, the story
of Mary Aviae' death was fated to re
main a mystery.
It became known in time, however, to
one man to whom Mr. Gloom communi
cated the facts in Writing some five years
alter they had happened. He, the rec
tor of Borleigh, ended his letter by say
ing : “I have lived in a purgatory of
remorse and sorrow ever since that aw
ful night, and am thankful to think 1
shall soon be rid of my load.” He was
dying when he wrote this of o decline,
brought on by overwork in his parish ;
and he left liebind him the reputation of
being the most earnest, zealous, kindest
and also the saddest rector whom the
people of Rorleigh hail ever seen.

Astronomers divide meteors into sev.
era! classes—aerial meteors, as winds,
tornadoes, etc.; aqueous meteors, as
fogs, rain, snow, hail, etc.; luminous
meteors, or those due to the action of
elements in the air, as rainbows, halos,
parhelias, mirages, etc.; electrical me
teors, as lightnings, auroras, etc.; and
igneous meteors, as shooting or falling
stars, star-showers, bolides or fire-bfUs,
aerolites or meteorites, eta In present
usage, says Prof. Newton, the term me
teor is generally limited A the Ust
group, or-to the igneous meteors. The
meteorites are all evidently fragments,
not separate formations. They are, *ays
the same authority, in the heavens, to
some extent at least, grouped in streams
along the orbits of known oemete, and
hence have a common origin with them.
The - continuity of these streams, the
double and multiple character of Biela’t
and other comets, fend thS steady dim
inution of comets in brilliahcy at suc
cessive returns, seems tohrgue a con
tinuous breaking up of the comet into
fragments by some cause, probably by
the sun’s heat. Tine view A etrungth-

It is not surprising to find the on-
learned in things medical unable to un
derstand that brain development, which
at coarse A generally a matter of heredi- •
ty, determines character. . Such, how
ever, A, and must needs, be, the fact.
Whether the mind A something outside
matter which acts through or by the
brain, as a musician m ay use a musical
instrument, or whether, aa some think,
what we call mind A simply brain func
tion, it should be manifested on consid
eration that upon the quality and con-
formation of»a man’s brain must depend
hA mental capacity; and, consequently,
also hA characteristics both intellectual
and moral. We are not dApoeed to
urge specialities of development as ex-
cusee'Kreoodnetlieeanse, given an av
erage degree of intelligence and fairly
strong will power, the individual A
dearly responsible for hA actions; but
. it mMt not be forgotten that hA inatihe A
of right or wrong, and the facility of
j Adgment with which he dAtinguAhce
between good and evil, will lie acute or

fallacy. In the first place, there A not
much real disagreement, and the dis
