we know uot, whether late or soon, Our twilight shadows may darken the west, When with sunset light the hills ure flecked, And the golden sands of onr life are run, Sweet will be our evening retrospect, Can we but hear Our Father\u2019s grand \u201cwell done.\u201d Beura M.SwaiL.Stanstead, Sept.30, 1882, IN A COAT POCKET.Astley Cowper, hat in hand, was just turning tho handle of the street- door, when a soft call from the stair-top made him pause.\u201cAre you going to tho post office, Astley ?\u201d \u201cNo, not exactly, but near it.Is there anything you want dono 2\u201d \u201cOnly this letter Lo post,\u201d and a girlish shape flitted down tho stair.Ast.ley watched as sho descended, and with suddenly sharpened recognition of the fact, said to himself, \u201cWhat u pretty girl Rosamond is!\u201d Brothers ave not always so alive to their sisters\u2019 charms, but the tact was that rarely in her lite Lad Rosamond Cowper been so near to perfect beauty us at that moment, when she came down the old stair-case, letter in hand ; her cheeks flushed with deepest pink ; her eyos shining, and her red lips parted with I know not what happy stir of emotion and expectancy.Two long braids of pale brown hair, thick and glossy as those of German Gretchen, hung down her (back.On the fair forchead clustered a fringe of light waving rings, not cutand trained after the manner of the conventional bang, but a happy freak of nature and accident.Tho slender figure in its white dress had ull the rounded grace of youth and perfect health.Over ull was an air of virginal freshness, indescribable but charming.It was one of those bel mo menti which come at times to most young creatures, But Rosamond was teo much preoccupied to be conscious of her looks, us she banded the letter to her brother, with fingers which trembled a lictlo, and said, anxiously, \u201cYou won't loso it, will you Astley ?\u201d \u201cCortainly not;\" with a superior smile.lo stuffed it carelessly into a side-pocket of his cont, a cont made, | like the rest of his suit, of that immaculate whito duck, in which our youthful swells delight to array themselves in hot July weather.Forth he went, clean, alert, hand- Before its return, the weather had changed to that odd, almost autumnal coolness which checkers and tempers the keuts of our Americun summers, It was some time before Astley had occasion to wear it again.When it wus tukon for use, by mere accident, he was searching for something in the pocket, when his astonished fingors encountered and drew forth a rather thick, flat, hurd square of paper for which he could in no way account.llis first sensation was one of unmixed Lowilderment.\u201cWhy, what on curth?A letter, aud what letter ?\u2019\u2014 and be procoeded to stnouth the rumpled mass out on the tuble.À few tuintly written characters envelope.Mr.Dw\u2014 Edy r, .P.Boxb\u2014 New Y\u2014 \u201cDwight Edgar.Why, whut does this mean?| have had no letter from Lim,\u201d reflected the astonished Astley, still intent on the disorganized frug- ments.\u201cBut stay\u2014this isn\u2019t a letter from him\u2014but to him.How could it get into my pocket ?\u201d Here und there a sentence could be made out, or parts of sentences, \u201cI am so very, very happy, but 1 can\u2019t tell you about that until\u201d\u2014\u2014*Ought to have got your letter four days ago.\u201d \u201cSo you needn't go to Europe you see, for\u201d and then a blurred sigoa- ture.\u201cCome soon to your own Ios\u201d\u2014 It flushed across him then.This wus the letter which Rosamond had given him to post four weeks ago.It had lain in his pocket all this time, and had gone through the wush be- sidos! Here wus a pretty kettlo of fish ! Quickly his mind rau over the disjointed phrases, reading the half-ob- literated meaning \u201cbetween the lines.\u201d The letter was in reply to an offer from Edgar, there could Le no doubt of that.Astley had always suspected that there wus a tenderness in that quarter, And Rosamond had said \u201cyes.\u201d What must she have been thinking and feeling all those weeks ?And then a groan escaped from Ast- ley, as it flashed upon his mind that only a fortnight since he had read Dwight Edgar's name in the list of the \u201csailed for Eurepe:\u201d had read it aloud, with some careless comment.Rosamond was in the room, he recollected.What had she said ?Had she said anything ?He seemed to remcm- ber that she got up quietly and lett the room.How could he ever tell her?And what use to tell, when Dwight was gone, gone for years as likely as not ?Oh, what hud his carelessness done ?\u201c1 suppose he went because le thought she would have nothing to say to him,\u201d he said to himself, miserably.The sound of the dinner-bell interrupted his unpleasant meditations, and ho went down feeling as if he onght to be hanged.Rosamond was in ber usual place, neat, graceful, smiling even; but studying her face with awakened attention, Astley thought that ho detected effort in the smiles ard cheerfulness.The sweet face was a little thinuer; the wild rose bloom, which was its characteristic, had paled to a fainter pink, and Astley heard his mother ask, \u201cHeadache again, my child?\u201d And caugbt the patient answer, \u201cJust a little,\u201d With increased remorso he excerat- ed his carelessness.What ought he to do?What could he do?Long and deeply did be study over tho question, At last he took a half: manly, balf-cowardly resolution.Confess his delinquency to his sister be absolutely dared not, but that night he wrote to Dwight Edgar, made a full exyosition of his fault, and enclosed the faintly blotted scrap which said so little and meant so much, This done, he sot himself to wait for the moment whon he could produce evidence that, so far as in him lay, he had made amends for his misdoing, and ill then he resolved to be silent.Astley was right in bis guess.Dwight Edgar had gone to Europe a deeply disappointed man, In the letter, to which Rosamond's was answer, ho had written, \u201cDon\u2019t say no.[ could not bear that, nor could | give your gontleness tho pain of uttering (ho word.| will wait two weeks, and if n4 their end you have said nothing, I hall go abroud, and travel till [ can \u2018bear to como home again.\u201d Not à wise arrungemeont this, considering «hut chances and changes, including post-office laxities, \u2018ure involved in this mortal life; but lovers are not always wise, Tho two weeks passed without word or token, ench slow day deepentng bis hopelessness, and at their end ho sailed.His tinal arrangements were made in a hurry, and he hud been glad to accept a friend's benovelent offor of half a state-room on the over-crowded steam- some, the very picture of à luxv rious young follow onjoying « summor holiday.No thought of botray*ng Rosn- mond's trust was in hig nd, and his steps had already turned toward the post-office, whon a dr,g-cart drow up suddenly und a choovy hail roused his attention, \u201cWoll met, ol, fellow, 1 was just going round to ask you if you felt like à grime of tennis, Tho Porters rent un note cayly in the morning, to nsk mo to drive down to the Croft for luncheon uad & game, aud to bring you.\u201d \u201cAllright I will.\u201d Astley jumped F.A.WISWELL, JAS.H.LANGE Mechanical Expert.Atty.at Law, WISWELL & LANG\u201d, clicitors of American, 0\", nadian, and Foreign Pat ants, Bon 54, Beebe Pla\u2019, Vt., & Que.UE IE, foal pere 0 \u2018secured with claims fully Caveats filed.Interference corentent\u201d NE ae Invention.\u201d + sissues prosecuted.ceedings attended to.Assignments carefully prepared., Send 3c stamp for pamphlet of instrug tions, terms, &c.; nto the cart and in another moment wan bowling down the road toward tho Crofi\u2014u pretty country place some three miles distant.Rosamond's commission was clean forgotten.Tennis was followed by lunchoon, that by more tennis, and a conversation under the shade of the branching codurs which flunked theground.Then preity Mabel Porter proposed a walk, and led the way through a grassy valley to the gorge beyond, whore a little brook tore its wild way from higher levels to the water meadows below.The rocks over which the party climbed weve slippery here and there, and in saving Mabel from a fall, Astley himself had tumble, trifling in itself, but damaging to the duck suit: so dsmaging in fact that tho suit went to Business established over 19yeare 8 the laundress next day.er.It wus benevolence very poorly rewarded, for John Blagden tound him vory dull company.For the first few hours he mado some little effort at conversation, thon he dropped ail pretences and eat in moody siloneo, staring at the dim backward horizon from which each stroke of the paddles carried them further and further.It was ne bottler after they reached London.The two men took à set of rooms togethor ut the Langham, but to all plaus for pleasure Dwight turned a deaf enr.\u201cGo by youreell, that's n good fellow,\u201d he said.\u201cI won't kere you with my dullness.I'll just sit hore till post- time and rend the American newspapers.\u201d \u201cAnd that is wbat I loft him at,\u201d explained John Blagden to a mutual acquaintance encountered in the cof fee-roem.\u201cPoring over an old Herald, twelvo days out, \u2014 what an occupation fur à man to take up in London !\u201d \u201cPoor Dwight, | never saw a follow wo changed in my life.He's allcutup abou.something, and 1 wish I know what, for really, I have no notion what 1 ought to do nbout him, Nothing 1 can say makes any difference.\u201d Aud nothing did makeany differonce till, » week alter this conversation, Mr.Blngden roturned frem an oxoursion to Hampton Court, to find his friend busi- were discernable on what had been an into a portmanteau, with a light in his eyes and u color in his cheeks which made him seem u different mun, \u201cHalle! l'in glad you've come, old fellow.l'm off at once.\u201d \u201cOff?Where to?\" \u201cHome.Liverpool train al nine o'clock aud catch the Bohemia.\u201d \u201cHome!

Dwight!\u201d \u201cShe's fainted I\" oxclaimed Astley, in un awestruck tone, as his sister's head dropped heavily on his arm.But happiness is a bettor restorative than burnt fenthers, and in a little timo Rosamond was able to assure Astloy of her forgivencss, to smile aud ask questions, and finally be left on the doorstep for a long moonlight talk with her truant correspondent.When I saw Mrs, Dwight Edgar at Neport lust year, she wera on her neck a wonder chain to which was attached a locket whose lid was a big moonstone.Within was a singular little wad of what looked like paper which had been wot and pressed together.When I asked what it could be, she answered, evasively, \u201cOh, papier mache ; a bit of an old letter which Dwight makes me wear, Thero's quite a story about it, but it's too long to toll.\u201d Hor husband chuckled, and later, eceing that I was curious, ho told me the story which 1 have told you.\u201cAnd you never saw any one so reformed ns Astley is, ever rince then,\u201d added Rosamond, with laughter in her voice.\u201cHe's the most particular creature you over saw, always fidgeting and fussing for fear he may have for rotten somothing.If he lives to be a undred, you may depend upon it, he will never again forget another letter in a coat-pocket.\u201d\u2014[ Susan Coolidge in Youth's Companion.Lawyers and lovers both do a great doal of unsatisfactory courting.oo eo ly engaged in crusnming his belougings | ROCK ISLAND.(STANSTEAD) P.Q.,, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, A Sensible Word About Newspapers.It in a greut deal easier to suy what u newspaper should not priul than it in to say what it should priot, wince the legitimate field of activity includes every topic which engages the attention of rutionul and deceut society, while the torbidden subjects are those against which a man who respects himself instinctively revolts.Thus, ono of the first rules impressed upon now comers in well-conducted newspaper offices is this: \u201cWhen in doubt do not print.\u201d This rule presupposes that tho news paper man ropresents the average senso of decency of the community, and that the doubts with which ho regards tho matter is shared, only in an intensified degroo, by society at large.The same goncral idea is ofteu expressed in tho maxim that it is not what you put into & newspaper but what you keep out of it that makes it sue- cossful.The rule and the maxim both rest upon the assumption that the personal character and experience of the responsible journalist are up toa certain grade, In the earlier history of journalism the cuse was different.À certain brilliancy of expression, an excess of imaginative power, a Byronic tendency toward Bobemianism, that indescribable quality called \u201cgenius,\u201d which is usually mere sham\u2014these were not only the qualities popularly ascribed to newspaper men, but those which they actually possessed.Out of this atmosphere of \u201cgenius\u201d came the tradition that 4 newspapor man must be not entirely reputable; that he must not be too willing to pay a bill; that he must certainly get drunk upon occasion and must be av al! times ready to drink; that he must work by fits and starts, and that he must cultivate some pet eccentricity.In fact, the notion was that he must be very peculiar and irregular, and surprising, and that these characteristics made him very great.This notion was utterly destroyed by tho war.At that time the mass of readers learned to demand the facts about current events, and the man with flowing necktie and the long hair and relling eye was knocked out of the printing-house, never to roturn.The newspaper man of to-day isa plain man, who lives with his family, pays his debts, goes to chureh, keeps himself clean in body and mouth and spirit, and generally tries to bobave himself as well as his business, to represent as uearly as he can the average intelligence and conscience of the community in which he works, never going bolow the average, but always trying to lifl it a little higher.His imagination is the least-used part of his mental equipment.He concerns himself with facts chiefly, and with such facts as concern other roputable citizens.While be pictures the life of the time, he avoids as much as possible the tad life of the time.He tries not to print what he would not like to read aloud before refined women and innocent children.He has fun, and life, and sparkle, but these are decent in subject, and pure in their tendency.It is only when some half-ripe boy gets old of the printing press now-a-days that it begins to turn toward scandal und indecency.Ignorant himself, unguided, and with little sense of respon- sib:lity, he has just wit enough to copy the minor weaknesses of large newspapers.Their sterling, solid qualitics are beyond his comprehension, and so Le bends his immature mind toward personal failings and moral dirt.He turns tho press, which surpasses in power all other social agencies for good, inlo à mere cider-mill of filth; and he becomes for the time being a terrific little social pest.His nose becomes as sharp as a terriers in the pursuit of human weaknesses and sios, and the deeper he can stick it into a moral sore the happier and prouder he is.He is a survival of the worst, and a very puny and contemptible survival, too.The public sense of decency and tho social instinct of self-preservation soon force him to the wall one way or another, Honest and decent journalism ought not to be credited with his incompetence and mischief any more than the honorable profession of the law should be held responsible for the disreputable doings ot a Tombs court shyster.\u2014[ Wilmington News.There died in Delaware County, Ponnsylvania, one day last week, a prosperous and gonerally esteemed farmer, noarly 100 years of age, who for 40 years had never spoken a word to bis wife nor had she to him, nor had any ono of their five childron, of whom three, with their mother, are stil living, spoken a word to any other member of the family.Aud yet they aH lived peacofully under one roof and wore in full posscssion of their faculties.Forty years ago, it is said, tho wifo was bequeathed a small sum of money by a relative which her husband desired te use in purchasing farming implements and otherwise improveing the property.lle vowed that unless ho was given the money he would nover speak another word to her.This vow he steadfastly kept to the end of bis life.The threo daughters, then quite young, at first tried to reconcile their parents, but failed.Then one wided with the father, another with the mother, and the third became disheartened with the whole job.So they quarreled, the two sons died, and never again a word was apokon in the housshold, save to visitors, The death of the husband made no change in the situation, and the survivors move about the house as if utterly oblivious ef each other's presence.\u2014[ Philadelphia Record.On the banks of the Kennebec river, a fow miles bolow Bath, lives an old lady, Years ago she ovied 80 violently when about to married that it was with difficulty that she oould be paci- flied.On being interrogated as to the cause of ber great grief she replied that it made her sad to think she was te live so near the steep bank of the river, where hor children would daily be in danger of being drowned.The lady has now lived there fifty years, and has never hall a child.ov Life in a Montana Frontier Town The following amusing description of the mixed life ot a frentior town, is given in E.V.Swualley\u2019s third paper on the \u201cNow North-west,\u201d whicn is a notable feature of the October Century: The picturesque features of life in a western Montana town like Missoula are best seon as evening approaches.Crowds of roughly clad men gather around the doors of the drinking- saloons.A group of Indians, who have squatted or the sidewalk for two hours playing some mysterious game of cards of their own invention, breaks up.One of the squaws throws the curds into the street, which is already decorated from end to end with similar relics of other games.Another swings a baby upon her back, ties a shawl around it and herself, sccures the child with a strap buckled ucross her chest, and strides off, her moccosined fect teeing inward in the traditional Jo- dan fashion, She wears a gown made of a scarlet calico bed-quilt, with leggings of sore blue stuff; but she bad somehow managed to get a civilizes dress for the child.They ali go off Lo their camp on tho hill near by.Some blue-coated soldiers from the neighboring military post, remembering the roll-call at sunsot, swing themselves upon their horses and go galloping off, a little the worse for the bad whiskey they have been drinking in the saloons, A miner in blue woolen shirt and brown canvass trousers, with a hat of astonishing dimensions and a beard of a year's growth, trots np tho street on a mule, and with droll oaths and shuffling talk, offers the animal for sale to the crowd of loungers on the hotel piazza.No one wants to buy, und after provoking a deal of laughter.tho miner gives his ultimatum: \u201cll hitch the critter to one of them piuzza posts, and if he don't pull it down you may have him.\u201d This generous offer is declined by the landlord; and the miper rides off, declaring that he has not a solitary four-bit piece to pay for his supper, and is bound to sell the mule to somu body.Toward nighttall the whole malo population seems to be in tho street, save the busy Chinamen in the laundries, who keep on sprinkling clothes by blowing wuter out of their mouths, Early or late, yeu will find these industrious little yellow men at work, One shuffles buck and forth from the hydrant, carrying water for the morning wash in old coal oil cans hung to a stick balanced across his shoulders.More Indians now\u2014a \u201cbuck\u201d and two squaws, leading ponies heavily laden with tent, clothes and buffulo robes.A rope tied around a pony's lower jaw is the ordinary halier and bridle of the Indians, These people want to buy some article at the saddler's shop.They do not ge in, but stare thrcugh the windows for five minutes.The saddler, knowing the Indian way of dealing, pays no attention to them.After a while they all sit down on Lhe ground in frent of tbe shop.Perhaps a quarter of an hour passes before tho saddler asks them what the want.If he had noticed them at first, they would have gone away without buying.pe A Bonanza in Blood.\u201cNow, if I told you the cold fact that I saw a human (being in whose veins flow the blood of all the five races into which mankind is divided, you wouldn't believe it, would you?And you would say I never carried a little hatchet, using mild language, wouldn\u2019: you?\u201d said a well-known histrionic gontleman, just returned from the andwich Islands, to a reporter of the Chronicle last evening.\u201cNo, I would not believe it,\u201d was the frank reply.\u201cWell, here's the case, and it is a genuine one: The present Mrs, Brown, of Honolulu, was born in tho Hawaiian Kingdom.Her father was part negro and part American Indian, and her mother a native Hawaiian woman.In Mrs.Brown's veins, therefore, flowed the blood of three races\u2014the negro, the Indian, and the Malay.So far, so good, oh ?Mrs.Brown's first husband was a Chinaman ;

the third time some ten days or so ago.At her two former acctuchements she did herself credit by tho rospectable- size of tho family she brought to light; but this last time she gave birth to but ono pup.Two or three days before the birth of this pup thero was a litter of kittens born on the place.Simmons, disgusted at the smallness of her family, and evidently thinking that the cat had more than her share, cap- tared one of tho kittons in tho absenco of the old cat, aud carried it in hor mouth to whoro sho kopt her pup, and deposited it in hor baskot.In a short timo she was suckling both the pup and kitten, who were hard at work, side by side.The next day the kitten was taken away in tho absouco of Simmons, but on her return sho hunted up her adopted child and brought it back to her basket, where it has remained since, Simmons has now been nursing the kitten for more than a weok, the kitten seeming to be pe:feot- ly satisflod with her foster-mother.This may not be an isolated case of the kind, yet it is nevortheless romark- able.\u2014 Scientific American.rpg b e thermometer like a man rites y \u201c 1882.\u2014 WHOLE NUMBER 1918.trie Planets in October.The astronomer of the Providence Journal gives a survey of the astronomical phasos for Lhe current month.Venus is evening star, She is near enough to her period of greatest brilliancy to be casily seen bofore sunset by those who know where to look for hor, and she is bright enough to cast a rceptible shadow.Sho diversifies er course with the only important incident of the month.On the 16th, at five o'clock in the afternoon, she is in close conjuction with Alpha Scorpii, better known as Antares, the fumiliar red star in the Scorpion.As she will be visible soon after that time, the ep- portunity for observation will be unusually favorable.Venus now nets not fur from a quarter afier seven o'clock in the evening; at the ond of the month she sets about half-past six o'clock.Saturn is morning star, and wins the second place on the monthly list from the exceeding interest attached to his movements.He is now noar onough Lo opposition to lend a charm to the October sky throughout nearly the entire night.Never in u lifetime of present observers will a more eligible opportunity occur for observing Suturn with the nuked eye than may be looked forward to during the coming menths.Saturn rises a few minutos before eight o'clock in the evening; at the end of the month he rises about quarter before six o'clock.Jupiter is morning star.Jupiter rises a few, minutes before ten o'clock; at the end ot the month he will rise at half-past five, Mereury is evening star until the 22d, and then morning star for the rest of month.Neptune, Uranus, Mercury and Mars might as well be dropped from the monthly record, as far as any visible part they play on its annals is concerned.Mars is evening star and pursues his slow course too near the sun to bo perceptible to the most sbarp-sighbted star-gazer.A whole year must pass before Mars will be an object of interest, and ton years must pass before he takes ou his most brilliant phase.The October noon fulls on the 26th, at fifty minutes past vine o'clock in the morning.The now moon of the 12th is in conjunction on the 13th with Mercury and Mars, with only a half hour\u2019s difference between points ot nearest approach to the planets.She is in conjunction with Venus on the 15th.The full moon of the 16th is in cepjunction with Neptune and Saturn on the 27th and with Jupiter on the 30th, ee, Length of the Mississippi.Mark Twain mourns over the diminished length ot the Mississppi in this strain : Therefore, the Mississippi between Cairo and New Orleans was 1215 miles long 176 years ago.It was 1180 after the cut off some years ago.It has lost 67 miles since.Consequently, its length is only 973 milos at present.Now, if ! wanted to be one of those ponderous scientific people, and to prove what has occured in the long past by what hus occured in a given time iu recent past; or what will scour in the far future by what bas occured in late years, what an opportunity is here.Geology never had such a chance, nor such exact data to argue from.Nor developements of species, cither.Glacial epochs are great things, but they are vague\u2014vague.Plenso observe.In the space of 176 years the lower Mississippi has shortened itself 242 miles.That is an average of a triflo over ene mile and a third per year.Thercfore, any sane person, who is not blind or idiotic, can see in the old Oelitic Silurian period, just 1,000,000 years agn, next November, the lower Mississippi rivor was upward of 1,300,- (00 miles long, and stuck out over the Gulf of Moxico like a fishing rod.And by the same token, any person can see that 742 years from now, the Mississippi will be ouly a mile und a quarter long, and Cairo and New Orleans will have joined their streets together, and be plodding comfortably along under a single mayer and mutual board of aldermen.There is something fascinat-« ing science.One gots such wholesals returns of conjocture out of such trifling investments of fact.An [daho bachelor recently wrote to an Eastern paper complaining of tho scarcity of women in that Territory, and the consequent forlorn condition of tho marriageable men, and ruggest.ing an exodus te the far West of Eastern women matrimouiully inclined.The communication brought out sevor- al replies from maidens and widows who expressed a willingness to join the fortunes of Idaho bachelors, and if the latter take the proper steps there is no reason to doubt that they may become happy benedicts before long.A \u201cgoldier's widow\u201d at Elmira, N.Y,, who has seen this bachelor's complaint, writes to a Chicago journal suggesting that Idaho bachelors in need of wives forward lists of names to Eastern papers.She, far one, promises to respond, and she has no doubt others will do tho same.It is relatod that Secretary Evarts was once af à party who were visiting tho natural bridge im Virginia.As i* usual, afler tarrying at the top thoy descended and viewed the wander trom below.While there the story was told that George Washington had once atood thero and thrown a silver dollar completely over tho bridge.Somo of the party pooh-pechod this assertion, but Mr, Kvarts gravely rebuked thom, saying: \u201cYou forget how much farthor a dollar went in these days.\u201d\u2014[ Boston Corumorcial Bulletin.Old Dyke was grumbling about the degeneracy of the times, ard sighed for the good eld times, espocially dwelling upon the travelling in the years whon ho was young.Jonkins listened until he was tired, and then burst out.\u201cLike the old stylo of travelling beat, do ye?Then why in thunder don\u2019t you take the springs out of id wagon and bump along on the ex \"'\u2014 Lowel!

Central America in an official report received by Messrs.William Jex & Co., shipping meor- chants, of that city.The steamer \u201cMallard,\u201d Captain Calloway, from Corn Island and Belize, Honduras, consigned te Jox & Co., brought to the firm a letter from their agent at Blue Fields, Nicarugus, giving the bare outlines of the exciting experience of à schoener owned by Jex & Co., in an encountor with a crew of Spanish pi- ratos.The schooner \u201cTransit\u201d is one of a number of vessols owned by Jex & Co., engagod in tbe Central and South American trade.She runs between various points on the Mosquito coast of Niacaragua, transporting general merchandise, which is taken from this country to Corn Island by the steamer \u201cMallard,\u201d She is commanded by Cap- twin Jobn Thompson, an American mariner of expe ence, and has à crew consisting of two mon and a cook.\u2014 About the 1st of August the \u201cTransit\u201d luy at anchor in tha bay of Gracias a Dios, the extreme northeastern point of Nicaragua, \u2018he schooner was awaiting the arrival of the steamer, and lay three miles out from the town, but within the bar across the month of the harbor.In the dead of the night when the captaiu wus asleep io the cabin, and only one man was on the watch, the schooner was sileutly boarded by six pirates, who bad stealthily approached the ship in Lwo canocs, armed te the toeth, and having taken the \u201cTransit\u201d by surprise, were able Lo seize Captain Thompson and bis three men, aftor a brief but desperate struggle.The captain and crow were gagged avd bound hand and foot.The pirates took {full possession of Lbeir prize, and ran.wacked the ship from stem to stern.\u2014 The ship's company were thrown tate the hold and the pirates then hoisted wail aud endeavored to make for the open sea, knowing that they could not hope to retain the capture if they did not quickly get out of port before the daring deed was discovered.But-tffe \u2018captain of the pirate crew did nat know the harbor and was-unable to get the ship over the bar.Afier an- deavoring in vain éoræome little time, he threatened Captain Thompson with death uniess he piloted the vessel to the sea.The captain consented.fd do 80 if he wus 1eleasod from the rapes which bound him hand and foot, and on other terms the pirate, chief wes constrained to accept the condition.Captain Thompseu was givem the use of his limbs and pavigated.ths \u201cTransit\u201d over the bar and out to sea.By this time the pirates thought therg- selves safe, and were indiscrost enough to indulge liberally: ia the aguardienis, of which the ship's lockers contained a plentiful supply.The fiery stuff was partaken of to excess by all bands, and soon tbe pirates were in a condition ot almost helpless drunkenness.=.i - Captain Thompson was net the mab to let this golden oppertunity slip.Watching his chance he ran below, cat the ropes which bound the oxptive craw, and with their help quickly attacked the pirate band, subdued thom.and #e- cured the whole six safely in irons.The course of the ship was then altered and she was headed for Blue Fields, 380 miles below Grocias a Diasy the nearest point at which there was a United States consul.Arriving there the six pirates were taken ashore and surrendered to the authorities, and Cuptain Thompson returned to the port whence be had been compelied to sail #0 urely and :under .sush sensational vircumetances.The pirates wero Spaniards, and of the most desperate character.; rms ih Mrs.Percy Vergor is a good wdman, but she is not

presiding.The Queen vs.David Kelly.Charge Forgery.James Taylor of Magog, deposad that on the 6th of April last he re ceived a letter from an A.A.Dickson, in Montreal, informing him that he held a nete for $2,000 against him endorsed by David Kelly.At first he took it to be an April fool.A day or two alter, showed it to A.H.Mooro, Ey.when Moore's clerk informed him that there was such a man and suggenated that ho had better sec Kelly.Ho asked Moore but as he was busy, asked and took L.J.Merry with him to Kolly's, when ho told Kelly what he had received and asked him whut it meant, Kelly to this made no reply.Several different times he asked him if it could be possible that he hud been forging his name and finally upon receiving no reply, said why do you not answer, Kelly?and received the reply I do not know what you mean.After many other questions, Kelly replied | am not prepared to answer to-day.Merry then said to Kelly what prepar- ution do you need.Upon receiving no satisfuctory answer, Taylor drove Lo Stanstead, consulted J.L.Terrill, and upon his advice telegraphed to Chief of Police, Montreal, to meet him ut St.Lawrence Hall, from whence, we went to the office of suid Dickson and J.J.Webster, und asked in presence of the Chief if ho held such à note and to sce the same.He at once diseovered that it bore bis signature, being the one produced, being upon à piece of colored paper about threo inches long and a- ut 14 iuches wide, with silver odgo on one end, the other two sides and end baving been cut.Tho signaturo was writton by him in the summer of 1879 in the autograph album of Nellie Kelly, who was then working at his place.The signature was written in about the centre of tho leaf with scrolls underncath us well as the wo.d Magog and date of signing thereunder.The word Magog und date had been sinco cut off and in doing so a portion of the letter y in his name had been cut off us well and a promissory note written thereover, bearing date, Magog, Sept.Gth, 1881, which he swore to be a for- gory, he never having had any business transactions with Kelly.From Montreal he telegraphed to have Kolly arrested which was not done until he got home by night train.While in town ho procured as did also Dickson, a Photogruph of the note and the back thereof upon which was Kelly's signature, and stamps affixed as Dickson claimed by bimself on the First of Murch lust, By the defence un album wus shown witness, being prisoner's exhibit C, with dark cover and gold edge, containing names on different pages of \u201cJames Taylor\u201d \u201cMrs.Taylor,\u201d and upon being asked if the same was written by him, he replied, that is not my writing.The person who wrote that tried to copy my signature but did not succeed well.I declare it to be a forgery.\u2018Taylor wus asked if he over insulted Nell'e Kollv between Magog and her mother's residonce in the lul- tor purt of August or first of Septem bor, 1881, sod answered never.It is a fulse insinuation.Morton Lullard, arrested prisoner a- hout one o'clock in the morning as he wus coming out of J.J.Webster's house, Kelly said to him and Jamieson | wrote the note ot my house and Taylor signed it at his (Taylor's) house, no «ne being present.Upon tuking prisoner home to his mother's place, she asked what he was arrested for and upon his telling her, she made te- ply, that is a lie, what had you to give Taylor for such a note?About the Sixth of March last got u letter from À.À.Dickson asking as to standing of James Taylor.Webster first asked me if I had received such a letter, upon answering in the negative, ho replied you will to-morrow, which I did.A.A.Dickson.On the First of March last, prisoner came tv iny offico in Montreal and wanted to sell note, left it with me about three hours.From ugencies could learn nothing of Taylor but purchased it and guve $1,700 by cash and cheque.Did not know either Kelly or Taylor.Believe Webster some lime before asked me if I could buy a note of that magnitude, but did not mentivn names, met Webster the day of the purchase when lio suid Taylor was worth from Gfison to twenty thousand dollars.Prisoner endorsed note and I put stamps upon the back thereof.Miss Phelan, trader, of Magog: I sold Nellie Kelly about three years ago un autograph album, with leaves of different colors and silver edges.The cover was light blue.About a year after she had it in our store, asking my brother to write his name therein.Prisoner's exhibit Cis not the ono 1 sold her.This has gold edges with dark cover.Myre.James Taylor: Nellie Kelly commenced working for us about June, 1878, and left in the spring of 1880, and went to Mr, Webster's to work.She bought an autograph album there, which had light blue cover with leaves silver edged.Wrote my numo therein about the beginning of 1879, at her request.Nellie asked Mr.Taylor to write several times.Finally ho did write his name, and [ believe the name of tho place therein, as I specially urged him to do, thinking Nellio would be displeased if ho did not.The signature in prisoner's exhibit C was never written hy me, nor is tho album the one Nellie had at our place.E.J.Merry: Went with Taylor to seo Kelly.Much of what was suid 1 do not remember.Heard Taylor usk Kelly a number of times if he had been forging his name, after telling him about the letter he had received from Dickson.Could get no answer.Finally Taylor grew angry, and asked him why he did not answer.He said he wus not propared to answer, | then snid I should not think it would take much preparation.We left without a reply.Michael O'Maley heard part of the questions by Taylor, but heard no answer by Kelly, at whose place he was at the time.De.Girdwood or Montreal, expert in matters of writing:

classes of Christians and Jews, und all the nationalities of Europe here represented, heartfelt congratalu- tions ul the victory of the British arms, I happened to be in the British Cou- sulute here the day after the arrival of the despatch unneuncing the cupture of Avubi, when a Frenchman lung in the medical service of the local government culled to congratulate the consul on the victory \u2018so impertunt to humanity,\u201d because, as be expressed himself, the defeat of the English army by Arabi would have exposed every European in the Empire to the dangers of a Mussuliman outbreak.And this is the opinion of evory European resident here, und if this danger felt isin Crete, whore the Christians are u majority, and possess the security of an insular position and European supervision, it wust be much more keenly realized in such places as Beyrout and Smyrua and in the open country of Asia Minor and Syria, where from all accounts the Mussulman agitation hus been going on in sympathy with tho Egyptian movement since the outbreak in Alexandria, the shedding of Christian bloed Luving excited all the suvage propensities of u brutal and fanatical population ; and say what the apologists of Islum may of the good qualities of the Ottoman or the gentle nature of the Arub we who have lived among Mussulman races know that without an exception when their religious rancor is excited, there is no brutality or cruelty too horrible for them.It is hardly a figure of speech to say thut every Christian in the Turkish Empire drew a longer breath when he heard of the decisive defeat of Arabi's forces.And there is u streng feeling that unless England inflict a severe penalty on the guilty leaders of the outrages of Alex- undria a great part of the value of the lesson and of the security of the future will be lost.The sympathy of all clusses of the Mussulmans here with Arabi was most outspoken, and the troops of the contingent now waiting ut Suda for transport to Egypt are most unequivocally in fuvor of fighting not Arabi, but England The runk and tile and the lower grades of officers made no reserve en the subject, declaring that if they fought it would bo the English, while even the upper runks of Turkish officers, though they would not give expression to intentions to conflict with their orders, were frank enough in their declarations that nothing would induce them to undertake any measures ot hostility to Arabi; tor though they despise and detest the Arabs, they regard thom us identitied with Lhe cause of Islam.\u201d À St.Potersburg

on relectiog Indian eurn seed, tuakus suggestions well wur- ty of consideration by our Canadian corn-growers :\u2014 1 have ever been in the habit of re- jectiog the small and imperfectly formed kernels trom eurs of seed corn, and planting only the well-formed, mature kernels frum the middle por- tiou-\u2014sclocting when busking in tho fail, \u201ctracing\u201d and hanging away under cover for curing, the very best, most-perfoct, well-filled cars for seed.If any curs have openings between the rows of kernels near the buts, or the cob protrmlal at she col beyond the kernel , they are 1ejected, nib there in any other irregul:riy siandard of the vanety My theory im that mlecting only pertect, full grown weed sud planting un good ground, well titled, where the plants can find all needed piant food within eusy reach, will give good crops, und that they never will deteriorate, 50 long an only the best is planted, und this course is followed.Some farmers, who seldom take pains Lo reject imperfect or ill-shapod kernels, grow very fair crops, but in looking over thoir corn us busked from the field their is found a greater proportion of imperfect ears and nubbins than I have usually found in mine.Whether this is due 10 less care in solection of seed or other reasons, I cannot say, but am cognizant of the fact.The seasons have only partial effect on the full development of the ears of curn, so fur as { have ooticed, on good lunm soil, well tilled.seldom soo any, er much, defect in fertilization, but a majority of stalks bear one or more ears well filled out to or over the tip of the cob, not just such as I would save for soed, but showing very little if any vacan- cieg.om.the cob, I cun sce no renson why wo should plant all the keruuls from the ear any more than we should take for seed any or every eur which ripens.The more porfcet the seed, in- - dividually, the more likely is the pro- \u201cduct to be petfeot, is the principle in ' improving wheat and other grains and plants, I believe.We know thut wheat \" has.been changed for tbe bottor by selecting single eurs and seeds, and breeding therefrom fora term of years ; and such I believe te be Lhe true course with any other plant which bears seoda.trou the Blina Bridle.The American Farmer in spouking against the use of the blind bridle sayB:\u2014 We know not who invented this in- strumpnt of borne torture, but we know that he did not understand the anatomy and physiology of the eye of a horse.Human vision is binocular\u2014that is, we see the same object with both eyes \u2014and to adjust tho axis of vision that the object appears single, though seen with both eyes.Both the eyes of the horse are placed on the side tho beud and axis of each eye is nearly at right angles with the longitudinal line of the body, so that it is impessible that tho same object can be distinctly seen with two eyes.Now, by blinding the oye in the direction in which it was intended in its construction that it should seo, it is forced to use an oblique vision, us if we should cover the front of our optics ard be compelled to soe only by the corner of our eyes.\u2018This un- atural and constrained use of the oye must to a greater or less extent impair vision, if pot entiroly destroy il.The object for which the blind bridle is used {a not accomplished by it.A horse is more readily frightened when he can- Dot see the object of his dread than if be can have a fair view of it.But it is surprising to obsorve with what tenacity men hold en te an absurd and cruel practice, whena moment's reflection would teach them better.Nineteen out of twenty horses you see in harness have blind bridles on, and if you ask the owner to explain its benefits, or why be uses it, he will be utterly unable to give a rational answer.We are not surprised that draught horses are subject to diseased eyes\u2014we wonder (bat they are not all blind.A Rzview or THE YEAR.\u2014As the more active portion of the year draws to a clore, it is well for the farmer to Jook back over tho busy months just past and draw some lessons from the season.This is not only a plessure, but a daty, snd all the more a duty when there is little or ne pleasure in such a retrospect.It may be that mms of the crops have failed, and it should be the work of the more quiet months ef Inte fall and winter to find out the causes of these failures, and take ail possible measures lo prevent their recurrence.As an example, it y be that the fleld of wheat yielded only half à crop, and was therefore without profit.This may have been thi olvct of cae or moro causes.Was + .> {the wil tee por?A gan) crop of wheat does not grow upon land that» lacking in the nutes upon which | place mut ted There must Le à à ruppor ot

the manure thut is mude from such crops.It the crop was poor, in many ciecs manuring or otherwise enriching the rl will insure u yield tor the coming year.But richness in not everything, and the farmer may ~ce his crop fail on u soil that hus cuough of the vuiious ingredients vf plant growth.The mechanical texture of the soil may be nl fault.A wet soil is not 8 productive une.Agricultural plants cannot do well in earth when the roots are surrounded by water, but by draining, wet, cold land often becomes very productive.Again, on soil rich and mellow, the partial or entire fuilure of the crop may be in the reed, or the rowing.ur both.The value of good seed i+ leyond question, and only the best should be ured.There is n grent difference in vauvsetes, and a ruperior sort is cheap at nny The may judge of the quality ef lin seed Ly notivg what his neighbours ure, und the crops est ont, farmer they get under similar conditions, when hin owi fields have not given good returns, Furthermore, atest may bo made by sowing different varieties side by side.We du not advocate testing many sorts but do cnough of this experimental work to keep abreust with the progress in the improvement of varieties.There ure failures due to the ravagos prevailing for the season.If insects have been destructive, it is important to become ucquainted with their habits, that any und ull meaus may be taken tn meet them.- - \u2014 Hearty [TeM.\u2014About a year ugo the smull-pox prevailed Lo sume extent in Austin, and there were great apprehensions at the time of the dread dis- euso
