for sometimes a Pilklngton was senior virt ner, sometimes a Trench.But the dee in lion of this legal firm had always remained unaltered.It had been known as Trench, Pilklngton, and Trench time out of mini, and so it wne still described.There had always been a trustworthy representative\u2014 always bearing either the name of Trench or of Pilklngton, and always gifted with an acute ear for confiding clients.For a day seldom passed but whet some his oirrh^ brought with the head of of the pocket under the pu it- the flannel shirt, and the flesh and bone of the pelvis.And remember, so slight must have been the touch of the shot on ay clothes that they were not abraded or marked ; the thin summer coat bslog perforated, but the outer edge not broken How could the wind perform this freak ?The full front f ,rce of this shot if only 1.000 feet |er sco>nd, would have a striking power of about 40,O K) pounds; but, cannoning on me in front, the force or blow might be only equal to a severe blow by a man striking bvlow the belt.If this shot had passed ovir any more solid portion of the body, as the head or the beck, rudden death would have been the result ; bub ae it barely touched the olo'Aes upon the abdomen the tff.ot was lessened.At all events, I was severely wounded by a forty-two pound round shot, and most certainly not by the wind of It 5 and by reason of the A surgery of the late Sir J ernes Fergus-I am now alive to tell the tele.\u201d A medical correspondent quotes Piof.Sir T.Longmore upon tho matter thus : The true explanation of the appearances presented In those cases which were formerly called *' wind contusions\u201d appears to e peculiar direction or degree of obliquity with which the missile has hep pened to Impinge against the yielding end elastic akin, together with the position of the Internal organs injared between this missile and other hard substance# In their neighborhood.The surface Itself Is not directly torn or cut Into, because the impart of the prrj-otlle has not been suffi oiently direct to tffoot in opening ; but the parts beneath arc crushed by the pressure to which they have been subjected between the combined Ir flumes of the weight and mimentum of tn« «bot on one side and of some hard rssimurg substance on the other.There are no 0 .»«\u2022 t have seen or read of, our correspondent adds, that csnn.t be satisfactorily ti plained on the theory given above.na no one driving up in him a weighty secret ; and t house, whether young or cid, wae always there with hie wits about him prepared to accept the trust Before one partner showed any sign of superannuation, as it was shrewdly observed, another was skillfully trained tc step into hie place might confide your secrets to the firm of Trench, Pilklngton, and Trench, with the same sense of security which you experienced when placing your money in the mnk.The senior partner's room was large and oblong in shape, and with three dismal windows in a row ; for these windows had iroh barm, and the duet upon them was an clfi-oient substitute for blind#.Between the bars could be seen a blurred forest of distorted chimneys.At the end of the room bugs fireplace ; and before the hre, which horning brightly, wae a great braes guard.It was an Ideal chamber for the safe deposit of secrete ; the walls were hidden by shelves, and on these shelves stood dt>ed boxes, some with names in full, others with the initials only painted upon them.At a desk, between the barred windows and the guarded hearth, sat an old man.If any one ever looked like a living embodl- ____t of secrecy that could not be tampered with, this lawyer loomed It from head to loot His white shaggy eyebrows hung over hie eyes and seemed el most] to hide them :\tIt was difficult to get more than an occasional flash from them\u2014difficult to judge whether they were small or large.Hie nose was narrow, long, and hooked like a hawk'a ; and the thin lips were pressed together as if they had been sealed.He seemed at least fourscore years of age.The expreeelon on his face appeared to imply that he had chosen the same motto as the Prince de Condo, and had baaed his character on the word \u201c Listen !\u201d It was growing dusk.Am the lawyer laced hie hand upon the bell at his side, the >pened, and in came a young man whose frank face was in striking contrast to the senior partner's.The old lawyer leaned back In hie chair, and although he did not open his lips or even look up, hie face plain ly expressed these words ; \" Well\u2014wha It?I am listening * the me.so you \u2022\u2022 I suffered fiendish torturse then, but I was compelled to submit to more.After a few hours I heard him ooming up she stairs again.He opened the door, and when he stepped inside i noticed he had a bottle of whiskey lo bis hand.He released me from the chains and compelled ms to strip from head to foot, until I stood nude before him.\u201c Then he chsined me up.He took a good-sit id pin and began pricking me with It from bead to foot, until I was bleeding all over.Then he took the whiskey bottle and held It for a while, leaving me lo surmise what fce Intended doing, and Increasing my anguish doubly by the anticipation of she torture to which I was te be subjected.Then my father wet his finger from the bottle and rubbed over what seemed to me s*ery sore he had made on my body.Us did not rob it all over my body at once, but would rub over a small space until all the stuff had been rubbed In, when he would wet his floger again and begin on another place.Tho pain was terrible.I must have fainted from It, I think, for I remained In that room all night, chain, d know anything until thentxb morning, when my sister released me.H i wae laid up for three days, and then ran away and told the police, and he was arrested.' The boy Emil ran away when 15 years old, three years ago, returned home the other day, and trained his father with a hatchet.gran L the rest them lamp h»d been With a trembling hand Mr.Pilklngton held the packet towards nie wife.She took it with manifest reluctance.The look of trust had not yet left her face.It wae evident that more than mere words even from her own husband e lips were needed in order to destroy the confidence she had placed In him ever slnoe their marriage some fifteen years ago.\u2022'I will not read them, ' said she.holding the packet Impulsively towards him.\u201cif you have thought It wiser to keep this secret trom me, my dear husband, these letters are better plac* d among those deeds which do belong to our Ilfs.Fur some reason, I can never doubt, you tnve this secret.Lst it be forgotten ; let It between us as If you had never referred to this subject.1 shall always think of yon, asl always have done, as a man of honour in whom every one places the utmost relisnoe.Why do you try to shako my belief in you ?\u201cFur your own sake, was th# lawyer\u2019s reply; \u201cfor your own happiness.Mr Pilk log tons wife sank baok in her chair, deeply perplexed, with the picket still clasped in her hands.How could the awakening of distrust in her husband bring happiness to her?She had married him when she was barely seven and twenty, and he wae then past the prime of lift\u2014sixor more.But his love for her\u2014 she had always felt that\u2014was one of genuine devotion, if he had a fault, It was one which most women will condone ; he wae jealous of every look or work she bestowed on others.But in hie constant effort to conquer ibis weakness\u2014the only weakn in hie character\u2014he bed gained her admiration.After a moment's silence, while looking ughtfully at the packet, she spoke in a low voice.\u201c Let these letters be destroyed.\u201d said she, casting a glanes at the fire.\u201c I feel that to read them would be to raise some barrier between us.I have had one groat trouble ; I could not bear another.\u201d ua-is & vas I SS&SSsSE the outskirts of the city.One arc circuit I Mr up, sad didn't Cl DOt The Speed of Fishes.The speed of fi«hee is almost bo unknown quantity, it Mug, »« Professor G.Brown Goode stye, v< ry d tfi mit to measure.If, \u2022sye the professor, you could get a fish and put lb in a trough of water 1000 ft.long and start it at one end and mike It swim to the other without etopping, the information could be easily obtained ; but fish are unintelligent, and will not do thin.Estimates of the speed of fish are constantly only approximated, and more or less founded upon guessing.One can tell, however, at a glance, whether a fish le built for speed or not A fast fith looks trim and pointed, like a yacht Its head ie comical In abape, and Its fine fit down close to its body, like a knife blade Into Its handle.Fish with large heads bigger than their bodies, and with short stubby fins, are built for slower motion.The predatory fishes, those that live on prey, are the fastest swimmers.The food fishes are, ae a general thing, the slowest, end consequently, are easily captured.There lose le reocinpeneed, however, by the natural law which makes them very prolific in reproduction.Dolphins hsye been known to'ewlm ai >und an ocean steamer, and It Is quite safe to may that their speed le quite twenty miles an hour; but It might be twice ae much.The bonito Is a fast swimming fish ; but j set what its speed Is not known.Tbs htiad of the goosefish le very large\u2014twenty times a» big as Its body.It moves about very little, and ewlme at the bottom of the ocean.The Spanish mackerel Is one of the fastest of food fishes.Its body Is ooneshaped, is as smooths as burnished metal.lie speed Ie ae match loss as that of the dolphin, and in motion Is cuts the water like a yacht.£ A Bleeping: Girl- A French paper of recent date may# : There ie a sleeping girl now at Alainoourt, In the Department of the Dele, who ie likelv to puzz e the physician».Her slumber Is not that of oue in a peaceful trance, bat Ie agitated like that of a person under the influence of a nightmare or the \u201cbines, the past nine days she has been plunged Into this strange somnolency, during which \u2022he sometimes beats hen o f on the head and breast and utters Incoherent and unintelligible exclamations.Bouillon Ie now and then poured down her tnroat when she opens her mouth, and by this means she is tepe alive.The girl, who is twenty v old, and a farm-servant, has had brief hi drolineas before, bo# none of them lasted eo long as that in which she Is plunged at present.The local doctors are completely non pie ussed by this strange case, and aspect ?lat the unnatural sleep will be followed by death.5 oor o For The young man, Sidney Trench, held a letter in his hand.He glanced at it as he stood over the fire, and then at Mr.Bilking ____¦\"I have a little matter to sett's, ¦aid he, \u201cIn Chancery Lane.I will not keep you waiting, sir ;
