•Air AX HOUR WITH A MADMAN. It is not pleasant thin to be lock|on ed in room alone with a violent mndman, especially if he should happen to be armed with a long xharp knife, and you yourself are altogether des titute of meaoH of defence. Yet uch wes once my case and the reader may, perhaps, be isouicwhat interested in learning how Mich an awkward ud venture canic to pass.

In tbe year 1859,1 had a good deal of professional busiocsH to transact in BermondBoy, a district of South Loudon, and bad occasion to ppend many boars every day among the not very pleasant streets and Janes in that locality. Not far-from tho old church, there is a sort of very narrow street or fane called Grange Walk.

It was summer time—I think about July or August—-when one evening I received a message which made it needful for mc to call in person, the MSt morning, at a certain house in Orange Walk. A letter and some books were to be left for me at the boose of a man named Smith and as I had some calls to make closo by, it of courso would cost me but little time or trouble to fetch the pared myself.

Now, Grange Walk is not a very pleasant street, although it is by no means so bad as many others near to it. There «rro not so many dirty, halfnaked children playing in the gutters, or so many untidy, slipshod women 1 leaning the door ways or gossiping on tbe side-walk, as in some other streets bard by, in fact, for the neighborhood is a very respectable street in its way

I should not have objected to pass it at midnight, and in the day-time no one would certainly expect it to be the scene of any unpleasant adventure. So I thought little about the matter until the next morning, when having completed the other business which I had in hand, I turned my steps to ward Grange Walk. •.

The first difficulty which I experienced was in finding the house. The gentleman who had written to mc w° ulurgyman, and, as every one knows, the clergy, in common with other pro feBsional men, often write a very bad and indistinct hand. The gentleman in question was no exception to this role. His letters always looked just as if he had fished a large spider out of the ink.stand, and had allowed it to crawl over a clean sheet of paper You could just make out one or two letters in most of the long words and as I was accustomed to read bad writing, and his in particular, 1 generally oontrivea, with the aid of a little guessing, to make out tho sense of what he had written, [n the present ease the name "Smith" was pretty elear, but tho number of Mr. Smith's house was by no moms so. It might have been intended for 11, or 21, or 17, or in fact almost anything. Still, as Grange Walk is not a very large place, I anticipated less trouble in discovering the abode of Mr. Smith than I actually experienced. The house? were old rickety affairs, many of them being built of wood and as most of the doors had for many years been innocent of a new coat of paint it was no easy matter to find what the numbers were which had originally been pointed on them. Beside which, by a new postal arrangement, they had all been newly renumbered, and the oumbors all ran the wrong way—LOO being where four originally was, and next 100 came No. 98, and so on while on most of the doors two or three very different numbers were marked in chalk, as it the people living there had been accustomed to alter them every few days, without taking the trouble to obliterate the old ones. I saw that it was quite useless to try to unravel the difficulty myself, so I applied to some of the natives for as. sistanee. This seemed only to make matters worse, for while one would streneously assert that such a house btfre such a dumber, another as stoutly maintained an opinion diametrically opposite. Then too, tbe name "Smith" was such a very oommon one that almost every one I asked seemed to know an infinite number of persons bearing that-designation, all of whom were living in or about Grange Walk and the difficulty was to choose from among such conflicting claims the proper person—to find, not a Smith, for the street appeared full of them, bat the Smith. However, after exer-

eising no small amount of patience, aad calling at the houses of half a doxen gentleman of that name, while dosea or more of people, chiefly omen whom I had asked to direct e, vere watching me from as many pea doors, from whence they some* mes shouted to me across the street

to try such or saeh bouse* At l»«t bj dint of gtreail pcmvcriBce, I arrived attbe hoO-*e of hitn wliom I b#licved to-be lite iruc and veritable Smith—the rc«*l Smith! Knocking

after the fifth knock, whether Mr. Smith lived there. "Oh, yes," she said, "Mr. Smith, poor man, be do live here." {I stated that I wished to see him, and after hesitating a few moments, and eyeing me all over, she *aid, in a peculiar way, and with a sort of smile which I did not then understand "Well, sir. he lives, do Mr. Smith, the third floor in the front room, I but it'i* seldom he do see ,auy one at all." •. 'Oh, never mind that," I answered, "I'll 1:0 up and try, for I think he has something t« s.ty to mc."

I then ran up the step? little notic-

in:

the look of interest with which the woman looked after me, aul understandinjj it still less. I had supposed from the letter that Mr. Smith occupied the whole of the house but this Smith, if the true one, was evidently only a lodger, living in one room, and I rather wondered that ray friend should have left the letters and books there. The front room on the third floor was very readily found, and I tapped at the door. It was opened by a tall, guaut, hut powerfully built man, whose appearance was certainly very wild—such a man as you would not care to be with in the dark. But it was broad daylight, and wheniihe asked inc. with a strange, almost angry voice, to "walk in," Lcertainly expected nothing more than perhaps a few rude words, if I had mistaken him for the Smith of my search. "Sit down, sir," he said. "Take a chair," and he pointed to a rickety old stool quite at the other end of the room. Taking off my bat, I did as he said, and then politely introduced the object of my visit. "Your name," I interrogated, "is, I believe Smith, and I was informed by Mr. Marshall that you had a small par col for me."

"What's in the parcel?" he de manded rather than asked. "Books and papers, I believe." "Oh, aye, books," he said. "There are books. There they are," pointing to a few old volumes lying on a chest of drawers in the corner. "You can see there, I suppose?" "Yes," I replied slowly. "I certainly do see some books, but sucely they are not the ones which he left." "Sir," he exclaimed, with a loud voice. "I will speak to you freely. We arc alone now, an? concealment is noolo.-K. I must anil nill speak to you.''

I was perfectly astonished at this speech, for I could not, for the life of me, sec what he meant but my nmazoment was still greater when, with angry gesticulation and a flashing eye, he rose, went the door, and locked it, putting tbe key into his pocket. I suppose my face betrayed the wonder that I felt, for, turning to me, he shouted "Say not 1 word Your., hour has come lie then took from a drawer a large whotstone and a long black leather etise, and pulling his chair to the table he placcd them upon it and set down, staring me full in the face. Then, in a deliberated voice he said: "Yes man your time has come. I have had it revealed to me, long years ago, that I should sec you to day. The stars in their courses predicted your destiny, and this day it is decreed that you should be offered up as a glorious sacrifice to the powers of Heaven. We are alone, and I tell you truly the star of your nativity is in a bloody house. I tell you your destiny is fulfilled I say, you die to day—this day you die

I must admit that when I saw him shut and lock the door, I certainly did feel some apprehensioniof violence. But when I saw him sitting there, glaring upon me with fierce bloodthirsty eyes, and talking such nonsence, which nevertheless implied a threat, I saw at once that I was locked in with a madman, and he, too, evidently a dangerous one. What to say or do I could not tell. I am a small, weak man, and he was very powerful and even had the case been reversed, every one knows that lunatics possess an almost supernatural strength. He had the key in his pocket, and his back was to the door. To shout out would, I knew, be useless—no one in the house would hoar. We were three stories above the street, so to leap from the window was impossible while, if I attempted to open tbe window in order to call for assistance, the first movement on my part would probably be the signal for violence OB his. I could think of nothing feasible, and so sat in* silence, trusting to tbe chapter of accidents or some happy idea for deliverence from my perilous situation.

Seeing that I was silent, hfpaused for a few minutes, all tbe while steadfastly fixing his bright eyes fiercely upon me. He the abruptly said

VI most talk with you, I must reasos and prove to jou tho heavenly mission which I have Tbe stars themselves have given jou to mo bj

he sat, and

calmly held out my right hand Jpward him. He took it by the tips of tbefiugera and looked intently upon the palm. "There, seest thou that?" he exclaim* ed, pointing to a long, irregular line which ran across the palm. "There is thy destiny—clear, that all the world may read, and justify my deed to-day. That is tbe line of life. See, how it branches off and melts away—a sure token of an early and bloody dissolution. My part is to offer the sacrifice: yours to endure. There Sit down. When the clock strikes one, you will depart, to wander amonjr the stars!"

So saying he thrust my hand away, and I quietly went and sat down, saying nothiog. He leaned back in his chair, folded his arms upon his breast, and gazed at the clock. It now wanted about fifteen minutes to one. After a silence of about five minutes, in which I was vainly racking my brains to contrive some means of escaps, he suddenly started, and fixing his piercing eyes on me, said "We will prepare the instruments for the sacrifice."

Suiting the action to the word, he pulled the stone toward him, and opening the leather case, took from it a frightful two edged Spanish knife or dagger, the blade of which wae, I think, certainly a foot long. He tried its edge upon a hair, and although it appeared to me to be rs sharp as a razor, be began to rub it carefully upon the stone. His words and the sight of the horribly glittering knife, and tbe knowledge of his maniac purpose fully awakened me to the sense of my danger. I could do nothing, for he was watching like a cat my every movement. But I might gain time at least and I resolved to do so. Often before I had experienced the powerful influence of a fluent tongu —the "Golden mouth," as the Greeks of old termed it, and now the fear of death nerved me to exert myself to the very utmost. Turning with as much calmness as I could to bim, I said: "And what do you propose to do? How are you going to carry out the decree of the stars "You see this knife?" he asked, leaving off his task, and pointing the ugly blade toward me. "When the clock strikes one, I shall sever your head from your body with this, and then with your blood I shall baptize myself, and after that I shall place your head on that sh^lf for to dn. vine by, and cost a'way your body— the gross, material part of humanity, into the street!"

words can tell the fearful wildness of his expression, us he uttered these words. With an effort I replied as calmly as I could YJA"Yes, all that is true but, as a lecrncd man, I should like to discuss with you various subjects, as I shall need knowledge when I reach, the stars. I should also like to understand fully the modus operandi of your proceedings. Let me ask you a few questions?"

I had 6ome slight knoweledge of palmistrry, necromacy and astrology, follies which I saw had turned the unhappy madman's brain, aud I had perhaps which is better, the power of language. So I entered into a great discussion, always appearing to bow to his superior knowledge. He replied, and although his speech was very incoherent, he must have received a very good education. But for my peril I should have been interested in his ease. I then said that I had three very important statements to make, the justice of which he would at once perceive. "Firstly" I said, '1 had a friend waiting below for me. The horoscope had declared that that friend should be present at my immolation. We must not fight against the stars. Should I, or should I not, go and fetch him or would he

He arose and went to the window and opened it, causing me, with all the cunning of madness, to move to the other side of the room. He then asked my friend's name, and looking down, called upon him several times, but of course, without receiving any answer. Then carefully shutting the window, he said "I see the head of a man at the door-way, it must be your friend. Is he deaf?" "Slightly deaf," I replied. "No," he said. "I see it all. I must go down and fetch him. You must not leave this room until your disembodied spirit soars toward the stars of heaven. He must come up. I will lock you in, and fetch him myself."

This looked a little promising, and so, thinking that if he once left the room I might find a way to keep him out until assistance arrived, I mustered courage to enunciate my other propositions. "Secondly," I said, "we ought to ascertain the exact height of this window from the pavement, and as a lino if let down would stretch ia soma minute degree, it is aoeessar to obtain a long piece of wire for that purpose, so as to be mathematically

correct. Have you any "No/' be aoewered, "but tb«e is ag shop very nekr, end I can get some when I go for yoar friend." "Thirdly," I continued, "it tiil le easy, for you to ca»t n»y body dowB, i»»«*~f^' m'' HoadQMrtori for

if we both go down should like t$ know whether, by the attraction of the stars you could not raise it from the pavement up to the window. Shall we descend and see

For a moment he seemed vastly pleased with this notion, but suddenly the idea of my possible escape seemed to come before him, and he exclaimed: "No, that would ocly waste time, and delay the bloody sacrifice," and he glanced fiendishly upon me and then at the open knife, "no." When, all is over I will cary your body dowr, and then see if the attraction of the head and tbe influence of the stars will attract it in an upward direction. No, you shall never leave this place in the body. But I must go myself for your friend and the wire—they are necessary Help me."

So saying, be pointed to a long bench which ran all along one side of the room. By his direction and assistance I tugged it toward the door. "That bench," he said "is stronger than any lock. Once, when I lost the key, I used it for fastening the door, Now, as soon as I have locked you in you plant the bench against the door, and then, if you do it properly, no power on earth can open it again."

My heart leaped within mc, for I saw at a glance that the door opened inward.

My joy at the discovery was so great that he certainly must have perceived it, had I not turned away to hide my face. He then took out a large hammer and a few long nails, and proceeded to nail up the window most securely. This was not altogether ac cording to my views, but my courage returned when, carefully placing the long knife in hie breast pocket, he said

"That clock is* a good deal fast, but you have still about five minutes to live. Wait here till I return."

He then took out the knife once more, tried its edge, looked at me with a fearful expression of ferocity, returned it to his pocket, and then with a fiendish laugh, left the room, double locking the door.

With all the cunning of madness, it is really wonderful how he overlooked the obvious fact of the door opening inwardly. "No sooner had he fastened it, however, than be cried from the outside: "You are safe—yoa safe Throw the two bolts, and put the b«nol».ti» ibc door."

You can imagine that did so with the speed of lightning. The doof" was sccure. I was, as he said,' safe. On my knees I offered up a few words of heartfelt thanksgiving to God, and was about to begin further action, for I thought he had gone, when I heard him laughing loudly outside, and repeating

"No power*on earth, no devil—no, only the influence of the stars could open that door now. Th% victim of destiny cannot escape."

That same instant I heard him fitting tbe key to the door. He had forgotten something but though he turned the lock,the door, of course, did not open. The whole truth seemed now for the first time to flash like lightning upon his mind. He was perfectly wild, and raging with fury. "Open, open, I say! I command he cried, at the highest pitch of his voice, while, like a 6avage beast in its cage, be threw himself with all his force against the frail door. The upper bolt flew off with bis violence, but, as he had himself aaid, the beuch which reached the midd'.e of the door, was stronger than any lock. The door was impregnable. With the quickness of thought I drove a few of the nails which he had left into the framework of the door, and thus doubly secured my position. The next thing was to raise the alarm. It was impossible for me to open the window, so with tho hammer I broke several panes and the frame-work, and then shouted aloud. Strange to say, when wanted, a policeman was at hand. I called to him, and explained as well as I could my position. A mob began to assem ble, as a matter of course, and in a few moments a strong body of poiice were in possession of the house. Meanwhile the wretched lunatic was raging and blaspheming in an awful fashion. When he saw the police, he drew his knife and rushed upon them. Fortunately they were prepared, and only one of them received a slight wound in tbe arm. The madman was soon overpowered and secured although not without a desperate and almost superhuman struggle. I then rsmoved the bench from the door. The police pushed from without. The long nails gave way and I was free! I shall never forget that adventure. The madman was shortly after confined in an asylum from which he bad cunningly contrived to escape, a few weeks before.
