[By 8. E. B.]

He was little more than a baby, And he played In the streets all day, And he held In his tiny fingers

The string of a broken sleigli.

He was ragged, and cold, and hungry, Yet his face was a sight to see, As helisped toa passing lady— 'Pleathe, mittlius, will you yide me?'

Sf&ituhe drew close her fur-llned manlle. And her train of silk and lace, While she stared, with haughty wonder,

In the eager, piteous face. And the eyes that shone so brightly, Brimmed o'er with gushing rain. And the poor little head dropped lower.

And his heart beat a sad refrain. When night came, cold and darkly, And the lamps were all aliglit, The pallid lips grew whiter

With childish grief aud fright. As I was passing the entrance of a church across the way I found a poor dead baby

With his head on a broken sleigh.

Soon young, eager footsteps Were heard on the frozen street, And a boy dashed into the station,

Covered with snow and fleet. On his coat was a newsboy's number, On his arm "a brand new sled," Have you seen my brother, Bijah?

He ought to be home in bed." "You see, I leave him at Smithers' While I go round with the press They must have forgot about him,

And he's strayed away, I guess.

"Last night when he said 'Our Fat her' And about the daily bread, He just threw in an extra.

Concernin' a nice new sled. "I was tellin' the boys at the office, And how he was only three, So they stuck in for this herestunuer

And sent it home with me!

"And won'tr-what's the matter, Bijah? Why do you shake your head?. Oli, Father in heaven have pity!

Oh, Bijah, lie can't be dead!"

He clasped the child to his bosom In a passionate, close embrace, His tears and kisses falling, 'Twlxtsobs, on the little face. Hoon the boyish grief grew silent

owry-

In one of the most bleak and barren portions of the county of Derbyshire, England, some twenty-five or" thirty years ago, there stood atoll gate, at a point where three roads met, which WHS kept by a roan of the name of Barton. There was a small cottage attached to the gate, in which Mr. Barton lived, in company with his wife, to whom he had "been married about two years at the time when the incident occurred of which we are going to write. This cottage stood in a singularly wild and lonely situation, on the lowest level of a deep, narrow gorge, which was surrounded by numerous lofty hills on every hand. These liills) far as the eye could reach, presented naught but one continued surface of dark brown heath, or an occasional bus') of the prickly gorse. The only evidence of life were a few flocks of sheep which here and there browsed along the mountain sides. A small stream ran winding rouri^ the base of the hills, whose rippling over the smooth pebbles which formed its bed, imparted to the ear a peculiarly melancholly sound. Not another house stood within a circuit of several miles and the only human beings whom the Bartons ever saw, were in the daily passing of the mail coach, an occasional teamster passing by with his load of merchandise, and the weekly visit'of a butcher na/ned Gontran, who called at their house on each Satuaday for he purpose of supplying them with fiesh meats.

Mr. Barton, having lived in his present abode a number of years pre vious to ins marriage, hud been accustomed to the loneliness of the situation and being, moreover, a man of strong mind and undoubted courage, he was not even in the least degree affected thereby. But with his wife, however it was different. In disposition she was timid, and since her marriage had lived in a state of constant alarm and dread. She had ever been in the habit of living in a populous town, which caused her situation to appear doubly from contrast. And what her fears, that portion of the country liad for some time been infested by a band of lawless men, who robbed and murdered every traveler who unfortunately fell in their way, and broke into and plundered any farm hoiiae where booty was to be obtained. Ami though large rewards had been offered fo» the detection of these men, and the utmost vigijance of the authorities employed to capture them, it had as vet been entirely unavailing. Not'even the most disatnt clue could be obtained aa to who they really wore, or the place ot thejr concealment.

present

lonesome added to

Of these men Mrs. Barton lived in daily, nay, almost hourly dread and as lier husband had more than £100 in gold concealed in the housu—the savings of former vears—she had imbibed the idea that they would be sure to find out the circumstances, and murder herself and husband to obtain the treasure. She frequently spoke her fears to her hasband, and implored him to give up his situation, and remove to some more thickly settled and safer place of abode. To this, however, lie would not agree as, apart from his considering her fears entirely groundless, his employment was both an easy and lucrative one. and he was afraid lest he mitrht not acquire another so suitable. He invariably answered her applications by laughing at her fears, and pointing out how improbable Iha) any one should become acquainted with the fact, ol their beinLT possessed of so much n»onc-y as he had never mentioned the circumstance to a single person except herself. She saw ihs truth of this reasoning, yet did she continue as alarmed as ever, and on overv fresh report of the mid-

o'clock a. in.. -Yl^indo^ac^ night depredations of the robbers foniiug to her ears, her fears increased in consequence.

lu»-

Early one Sat«i\'ay morning a letter was brought to Mr. Bai'ior, informing hi:: that his father, who resided s«nie thirty miles distant, was lying dangerously ill, and that his son wished to see him before he died he must come as speedily as possible. This letter gave great uneasiness to Mr. Barton, for, apart from the grief naturally occasioned by his father's situation, his wife would" be obliged to stay alone to take charge of the gate, and it would be impossible for him to return until the following day. But he was impelled to go and when he stated his intention to his wife, he endeavored to soothe and calm her fears with all the reasoning and words of comfort at bis command. It was long before he could venture to it-are her, so much did she appear to dread his so doing— and nothing short of the strong necesshy oidie circumstance in which he I was olaced, cooUl have caused him to do so.

frozen ground. At length, to her great 11 relief tho butcher made his appear-

Riice, anil so terrified liad she now become, that siio determined to ask hint

Address all to sit up with lier until her husband's return. Had it not been that her fears had taken such Arm possession ot her imagination, as to completely over-

power her better judgment, she would not have formed such a resolution as this for the butcher was not, by any means, possessed of a countenance calculated to prepossess any one in his confidence. He was a thick set, burly man, about fifty years of ape, whose dark looking features were deeply indented with the scars of the small-pox, and ever expre.ssed a restless, suspicious, uneasy look. And,,

U.tring the first part of Mrs. Barton's address, the butcher appeared apathetic and uninterested but the moment he mentioned the possession of the money, she started, hi3 keen eyes shone with more than their usual brilliancy. "I am very sorry," he replied, "that 1 am unabie to do as you wish, for I feel for the loneliness of your situation. But the fact is, I have yet to leave meat at several places a considerable distance from here, which will detain me to so late an hour that I could not possibly do as you desire. But I'll tell vou what I will do there is Dash, there—a better dog never watched a house—I will leave him with you and I will agree to forfeit my head if he lets any one enter the house while'lie is there."

Obliged to submit to this arrangement, Mrs. Barton thanked him for the oiler, though not feeling so well satisfied as she would had he stayed himself. "Dash," said the butcher, as he turned toward the dog, which was a large, powerful built one of the breed called mastitis, "stay here, and take care that no one enters."

The dog replied by wagging his tail, and looking up into his master's with an intelligent expression. lie then lay down on the carpet near the fire, and stretching himself at full length, appeared to be perfectly at home.

When the butcher had gone, Mrs. Barton began to caress the dog, endeavoring to attract its notice, but in vain, for it remained stubbornly unmindful of her attempts—laying quiet and inactive, as though without sense or motion. She then offered it a piece of meat, with the same want of success. It would neither appear to recognize her presence, or touch the preferred food. This behavior on the part of the dog revived Mrs. Barton's fears anew, for she thought it" it remained thus inactive now, it would do so should any one try to enter the house.

At length, as night closed in, she retired to her couch in the back apartment, leaving the. dog still lying iinpassive where he had lain since his mster's departure. But in vain did she try to sleep. Now that the dark stillness of night enveloped the scene with its misty and almost supernatural shadows her terrors increased tenfold. And the weather had become still more bleak and stormv than had been that of the day. The falling snow had given place to a mixture of sleet and rain, which the fierce blasts of wind impelled against the windows with a loud, pattering sound, and each moment a sudden gust would come whistling along the narrow gorge with such overwhelming force as to make the casement rattle \v»thi their covered frames, and appear as though it would raise the house from its very foundation.

It will now be necessary to describe the interior of the cottage more minutely, so as to fully understand the scene which is to follow. 'j'ho house consisted of two rooms on tile ground Ifoor, the only door 'of entrance being in that at the front. The one at the back, and which was used as a sleeping apartment, had one window, to which was affixed a shutter on the inside. There were two windows in the front apartment, one of v. Inch, a tolerably large one, was near the door, and opened on to the main road near the gate and the other, whose diamond-shaped squares of glass were fastened within folds of thin plates of sheetiead, was at. the gable end, opposite to the fireplace, andjlooked out onto a small patch of ground enclosed as a garden. To neither of these windows were there any shutters.

To return to Mrs. Barton, whose terror had so increased as to become acutely painful. Every story of bloodshed she had ever heard her imagination now vividly conjured up and increased thpir horrors a thousand fold and every blast of wind that came wliirliugalong the mountain hides she formed into the sound of some one breaking in.

How long she had lain she knew not, although the monotonous ticking of the clock sounded near the bed, and whose striking of the passing hours she had failed to note, when site was startled by the sound of a heavy footfall near" the house, apparently on some boards which lay under a shed in the garden. She suddenly sprung up into a sitting posture apd bent forward with eager intentness to listen for a continuance of the sound. She heard the footsteps again, quickly followed by the sound of a diamond drawn sharply over a square of glass. As yet not a "movement had the dog made, indicating a recognizance of what was going on. Dreadful as Mrs. Barton's terror now became, us she in vain tried to call to the dog for her tongue cleaved to the roof of her mouth, and refused to utter the slightest sound. And when, a moment after, she could hear the handle fastening the casement on the inside turn round with

sharp, clicking noise,and

the dog still remaining inactive, her terror became appalling. The hair on her forehead stood up erect, and there oozed big drops of clammy perspiration, as her every limb shook with a nervous trembling.

Almost instantly followingthesound of the casement being opened, there appeared to be somebody forcing their way through the aperture, accompanied by some words spoken to the dog in a whispered tone*. Dash ieplie.l bv uttering a low growl and making a spring across the room. Then followed a sharpcry of pain, so wild and shrill as to almost chill the blood in Mrs. Barton's veins. Kow seemed a fierce struggle, intermingled with the continued growling of the dog, and each moment decreasing cries as of a human being in the utmost extremity of acute bodily anguish. In a few moments the struggle ceased and all became as still as death.

As soon as the first gray tints of morning shown through the chinks in the shutters, Mrs. Barton got up and dressed, in a state more dead than alive. Opening the shutters, she took a seat by the window, and from which she could look out upon one of the three roads, to wait the appearance of the first person who might pass the place for she did not dare to enterthe other room alone.

A teamster shortly came toward her, whom she hailed, and informed of the circuhiitance which had occurred. He instantly stepped round to the side on which was the small casement, and

f! more. It was a bitter cold day in the quickly returned, exclaimed, with horlatter part of December, and the snow lay to a considerable depth on the

ror depicted ir. his face: "My God! whata sight Ihayeseen!" He "then entered through the window into the back apartment, and led the was into the otnerroom.

And what a scene now met their gaze! Hanging partially through the casement, with the fore portion of the body protruding to the inside, was the lifeless body of a man, whoso throat was literallv torn to pieces. It was the

body of Gontran, the butcher! In his right hand he held along knife, whose blade was covered with blood from several deep wounds he had inflicted upon the brute, which had proved too faithful for his master. Gontran had come with the intention of murdering Mrs. Barton, so as to acquire the money she had so foolishly told him of thwir possessing and to effectually prevent any suspicion of the perpetra-

what added to the almost ferocity of tion of the crime attaching to himself,

his appearance, he had two small, keen, glancing black eyes, which were almost hid beneath the shaggy eoverof his eyebrows and from beneath which they peered with a very sinister expression. But despite the yillainv of Mr. Gontran's countenance," so terrified had she become, coupled with the familiarity occasioned from his weekly visits to the house, she formed the resolution we have said, witli full confidence that she would feel perfectly easy in her mind should he accede to her request. "I am glad you are come, Mr. Gontran," she said, as the butcher reached the house, "for I am almost terrified to death. John lias gone to see his father, who is not expected to live, and he will not return until tomorrow and as we have got more than £100 in the house, I am afraid of the robbers breaking into the house and murdering me to get it. "Will you not stay and keep me company until John returns?"

had left his dog, fully believing that it would prove no impediment to his entering the house. The mistake justly cost him his life.

It was evident that the struggle between the butcher -and his dog must have been most dreadful for besides the numerous wounds inflicted on the latter, a considerable portion of hair was torn from his neck and breast, and some of which was still clutched within the stiffened fingers of the lifeless man. Dash was seated beneath the window, erect and motionless, gazing on the corpse of his late master with a pitiful look.

As soon as the teamster had recovered from the first horrible feelings inspired by the dreadful scene before him, he dressed the wounds of Dash, and then departed on his journey, with the promise of making known the circumstances of the tragic event to the authorities of the nearest town.

Nor did Mrs. Barton now feel any further alarm at remaining alone, after such a proof of the sagacity and courage of the noble brute. And ever after, the dog having recovered from his wounds, was treated by herself and husband with the utmost kindness nor could any amount of money which might hBve been offered have induced them to part with him.

It was subsequently discovered that Gontran was the leader of the gang of maraudeis who had" for so long infested that part of the country—he having merely followed the occupation of a butcher as a cloak to his more villainous course of life, and as a means of acquiring information of the places where plunder was to be had. The rest of his associates were, shortly after his death, all discovered, and paid the penalty of their numerous deeds of blood, upon the scaffold.

AN ENGLISH SCANDAJJ.

A Woman's Deliberation In Furnishing Cause for Divorce. New York AVorld.

When a woman won't she won't! In the London Times "Agony Column" there appeared last summer several iond and pleading letters signed "Spe« et Fides," in which the advertiser assured his correspondent that he would never comply with her request, adding: "Kest assured that I will never fail you when you express penitence." The story connected with it has been revealed in the divorce court. "Spes et Fides" was Maj. A. T. Wintle, of the royal artillery, and the woman to whom his advertisements were addressed was his wife, the daughter of Maj.Gen. Thompson. They were married in 18f9 when she was 17 and lie 2G, and three children were born of the union. Ho was wounded while on service in India some two yearsago, and returned to England, where he lived with his family until last July. On the 3d of that month Mrs. Wintle left her father's house, where she had been visiting, telegraphing her husband that she would be home in a few days. The telegram was followed by a letter, in which she told her husband that she had left him for good and did not intend to return that for the previous eighteen months she had only he.en a nurse to him, and had resolved not to lead such a life anv longer that for years she hail not been happy with him, and only her mother and her children had kept her with him and she had given him proof enough to enable him to get a divorce, which she implored him to proceed for without delay, as six months must elapse after hearing before the decree for a dissolution of the iiiarrjage coutd be made final. She had gone to a hotel with her paramour, registering their names as "Air. and

Mrs. Wintle." There she gave the servants every opportunity of identifying her, and left a sliawl-strap engraved with her name. In letters to her father she avowed her adultery aqd took every possible method of proving herself guilty, but she refused to give her address or the name of her paramour," and at last, her husband had to sue for divorce without specifying a co-respondent. In spite of all "Sir James Hennen's declarations that the court knew how to overcome this contumaciouis concealment, the name was not given up. and finally a divorce was granted without any "identification of the great unknown. To an impartial observer it does not seem as if between the husband and co-respondent the wife need not have hesitated to choose even if the former had a bulletin him. Perhaps, though, she resembled in her tastes the negro fisherman who declined to pull out a bass on the ground that when he went afishing for catfish lie went afishing for catfish.

Tlic New Boy.

Boston Courier. lie was a brand new officeboy,young, pretty-faced, with golden ringlets and blue eyes. Just such a boy as one would imagine would be taken out of his little trundle-bed in tho middle of the night and transported beyond the stars. The first clay he glanced over the library in the editorial room, became acquainted with everybody, knew all the printers, and went home in the evening as happy'and cheery as a sunbeajn. The next day he appeared, leaned out of the back window, expectorated on a printer's pate, tied up •the cat bv the tail in the hallway, had four fights with another boy, borrowed S2 from an occupant of the building, saying his mother was dead, collected liis two days' pay from the cashier, hit the janitor with a broomsticic, pawned a coat belonging to a member of the editorial staff, wrenched the knobs off the doors, upset the ice cooler, pied three gallies of type and mashed his finder in tho small press. On the third day a note wss received, saying, "Mi Mother do not want 1 to work in such a dull place.

She says I Would make a Good preacher, So Do I. mv finger is Better goan fishin.'" VoiWTi'il DethdoTank us."

The Son-in-Liaiv Business. New York Graphic. The vocation of son-in-law has become quite an important and remunerative one in this country, but it is doubtful whether it has yet been reduced to so clear a business basis as in Berlin, for instance, where an advertisement addressed to would-be fathers or mothers-in-law appeared the other day saying that "a medical student, whos.e" means are exhausted, would like to meet with some one who would advance him the necessary sum to complete his studies, at a" moderate rate of interest, and who would, if necessary, mar-iy his creditor's daughter at once as a guarantee, or, if the creditor should prefer it, would enter into a contract to do soon passing his final examination." This is no shilly-shal-lying youth he is in the market, and he will deliver himself over to the highest bidder. It is to be hoped 'that lie"succeeded in getting a good price for himself, but if by any fortuitous oversight of fortune he should still remain undisposed of, he should lose no time in coming to New York, where genuine "cheek" is appreciated at its true value.

A Phase of Evolution Explained. Somebody tells the story oi the late venerable Prestdent Pond, of the Bangor theological seminary, that on one occasion he delivered an almost interminable harangue in opposition to Darwinism, windine up with the question "If we were monkeys, where are our tails?" One of his tired auditors responded: "We have sat on them so

long that they are all worn off."

Twice Coffined, But Not Dead. Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMRNGTON, Ind., Feb. 9.—The excitement at Farmer City over the trance-like condition of Mrs. Slick, which was mentioned yesterday, has not abated. Mrs. Slick apparently died very suddenly, as it seemed, from heart disease, yesterday morning, and was laid out for burial. Signs of returning animation were believed to have been seen iu the coloring of her lips and in the return of pliability to her body. She was removed from the coffin, placed on the bed, and everything possible done to assist life in its struggle to return. Toward night she was again apparently dead, and was laid out and taken to the Methodist church to remain until the funeral, announced for morning. This morning when the casket was opened she seemed again about to return to life, and was taken to the parsonage. The doctors of the city visited her and and made a critical examination, using every known test, but were unable to agree as to whether or not she had passed from the land of the living. The funeral was again postponed for the day, and a number of physicians spent the day in watching. At the latest information the signs of returning animation were still apparent. The case occasions the greatest excitement. Mrs. Slick is the wife of quite a wealthy and prominent farmer and stockman of DeWitt county, and formerly lived at Champaign..

Spirits Playing at Ninepins. NORWICH, Conn., Feb.. 3.—Half way between the quaint old village of Norwich town and the historical settlement of Bean Hill, on the west side of the Yantic river, is a haunted house. It is on the Otrobando road, in the center of a cluster of houses—a small frame building, owned by Samuel McIntyre. It is now unoccupied. About five years ago the wife of Mr. Mclntyre committed suicide in the dwelling, and Mr. Roddy Burns, milkman, and his wife, who live directly across the Btreet, say that her spirit returns each night to the old house and rushes through the vacant rooms with the roar of a whirlwind. While talking with a friend at his own home the other day Roddv said: "I can't sleep much o' nights for the '"noises over there. It's a-gooing all night. It's tiie leddy that killed herself, ye knaw. First I hear a great rush o' feet, and I knaw that the leddy is cum. Then there is a rattle, an' all the hoose seems filled with sperrits playin at ninepins, ye knaw. I kin hear the balls roliin' down the empty rooms—rool, rool, boom, kerspick. Then the pins go over. Then it's as„ quiet as death, ye knaw, for a moment or so but suddenly something like a great sand-bag goes whistlin' tliro' the air and cooms down on the floor with boom, bang! It's a leetle sleep that I get. Ain't that so, dearie?"

Mrs. Burns, who is sick abed, replied from under the trembling bed clothes, "Thet is all troo, dearie quite troo, dearie."

The Burns family are Scotch, and are inbred with all the superstitions of the Scottish peasantry. None of the other families in the neighborhood have complained of ghostly disturbances. Mrs. Burns' illness is said to be due entirely to nervous prostration, occasioned by her terror of the ghostly revelers.

A Curious Cuse of Trance.

Bit Uapids (Midi.) Pioneer. A very singular case of spiritualism, if such it may be called, was reported to us by a neighbor of the family in which the case is located. The family iu question reside about five miles north of this city, the name of the family being House. Some time ago a daughter of Mr. House, a young lady about 17 years of age, was taken ill with diphtheria, three or four other children of the family having prcviviously died with llie same disease. After "Miss House had been sick four or five weeks, she summoned different ones to iier bedside and told them she was going away, but would return in a few days. She then instructed thorn to leave her entirety aione and not touch her again until she returned. Then, for a period of three days, Miss House lay immovable, to all appearance bein-r dead. At the expiration of three' days slu returned to consciousness and has since been in perfect health, getting up from her bed almost immediately at the end of three days. The strangest part of the story, however, is the fact that when she returned to herself she was somebody else- Previous to her sickness a daughter of an old friend of Mr. House died of diphtheria, at Ensley, Newaygo county, being a total stranger to Miss House, yet on her return to consciousness, Miss House appeared to be the girl that died at Ensley, claiming the deceased girl parents as her parents, and failing to recognize her own. She speaks familiarly of things she never saw, and calls by name people of whom she neyj?r heard. She also speaks of her visit to heaven, of the people and friends she saw there, and says she will have to return there about the 4th of next July. At times she seems to be her own self, also somebody else besides the person mentioned, having lately appeared as the deceased wife of a man living several miles away. Her present health is said to be perfect.

Plaster Crisis of Spirit Hands. New York 'finite. At a meeting of the American Spiritual Alliance, No. 15 West Thirty-third street, yesterday afternoon, A. W. Wood exhibited two plaster casts of spirit hands obtained by him from foino accommodating spirit at a recent seance. Mr. Wood explained the remaikahle method bv which they were obtained. "I had determined," said he, "that Spiritualistsshould be known bv their works. I asked some of my many spirit friends one evening if they would kindly furnish me woth molds taken from their hands. They said they would. Accordingly, on an appointed evening, I went to the house of a well-known medium. There we had a kettle full of boiling wax and a ffciil of cold water. I plunged a thermometer into the former and it rose at. once to 212°. The kettle of wax and the water were placed in the cabinet, and the medium went in. The lights were turned down, and in a few moments we heard the noise of some one splashing in the water. Through the cracks in the door of the cabinet we could see the white robes of the spirits. In about eight minutes two wax moulds were produced. I afterward poured plaster into them, broke of!" the molds and obtained these two hands. There is no seam to show that the mold was in halves, and a human hand could not have been withdrawn from a mold in one piece. The method by which the spirits worked was this: Their hands were materialized and^ilunged several times into the boiling wax, which would have taken the flesh oft'a human hand. Then the hands were plunged into tho cold water. In this nay a mold of wax was obtained. Then the spirit hand dematerialized, leaving the mold intact." The audience viewed the plaster casts and found that they showed the wrinkles and markings of the skin with great accuracy. The faithful were ardent in their expressions of gratitude at this beautiful manifestation, but the unbelievera were full of conjectures as to "how it was done," and murmured audibly about some connection between the" hands of the medium and putty.

will thank yon for permitting-me to enter. Were I in the body, sir, I would be considered a very old man, but I am not old by any means, even though I may seem to be so to others. There are certain oneslivingin the body who might possibly think of me as a superannuated old fellow, but I am not so at all, and I wish to say that she who was my wife on earth is not a superannuated old body either, although she lived to be the age of 91 years. She is as smart, chipper andbrigTit in appearance and expression as are many who pass over at the age of 40 and upwards, bo I want those here to know that every one has a cbance in the other life, and although age may set its seal upon them here, yet that seal is removed over yonder, and the soul has the power of growing and expanding, because beautiful in appearance and in quality of expression.

I bear the greetings of friends on the other side to those in the body. There are great many of them over there. Many long years have elapsed, and friends haye passed out one by one, but they ar6 all gathered into the great folds above none are lost. I do not find that any are missing, but homes are prepared for all, and there seems to be room enough for every one of God's creatures who passed bevond the great boundary of life. So I hring greetings from those over yonder to those who are here, and ask them to direct their attention to spiritual mii'.gs, to try and learn something of the home they are to inhabit by and by.

There are some persons whom I know who are soon to pass away from the earthly condition, and to them I would particularly speak, that they may be prepared for the change, and be enabled to appreciate their surroundings when they go to the spiritual world.

I have not anything more to say, sir, only if any friends desire to know more of me and mine, they have only to visit some place where spirits come and talk—not in public—and we will try and make ourselves heard. I wish to"send my greetings to friends in Woburn, Mass.

JAY AND JOAQUIN.

The Poet Fleeced by tlie Wall Street Prince. Joaquin Miller's Letter in the Boston

Globe.

I often wonder if these and like millionaires imagine that other men could not be as rich as they? Why, the truth is we could have a thousand such men if we could only find a thousend men in the United States mean enough to stoop to their devices for getting and hoarding wealth.

I am tempted to give a little side incident of my last interview with Jay Gould and wrestle with Western Union in Wfll street. I had seen the stock go down ab«ut eighteen points and so bought 100. It fell Ove lower and I took 100 more. Five points lower I took another, and so on till I was alarmed. I thought Jay Gould under some obligations to me, or at least a true fiiend,and so stepped across from my hotel to see him. He was kind, quiet and purry as a kitten, almost playful, and soon began to point out on his maps the line of the new Atlantic cable. He himself opened the the subject of telegraphs. The occasion was opportune. I handed him a certificate of purchase of Western Union and asked what to do, as I was on the edge of my margin. He looked at. me with a sweet and innocent surprise, as if saying: "Only to think that any man would touch that worthless Western Union." "Yes, I know. But I bought it because I thought it cheap, Mr. Gould." "It is cheaper now, Mr. Miller." "And will be cheaper, Mr. Gould?" "Well, we"—looking at his son— "have not a share of it. It ought to be a great deal cheaper." "Then I shall sell twice the amount I hold and hedge. Thank you, and good night."

And the next morning I did sell sell right and left—for the whole bottom seemed to be falling out of Western Union. It kept on tumbling, and by noon I was even. By 1 o'clock I was not only even, but almost rich. I was a richer man than I had ever been before.

I remained a rich man about fhirtyfive minutes, The tide began to set against me. Western Union bounded up with a rapidity that fairly made me dizzy, and by the time the hammer fell in the stock board I literally had not car fare left.

Having plenty of leisure after that I wrote |the foregoing conversation and have copied it there exactly. I have not seen Mr. Gould since. But I find that at the time he said he hail not a share of Western Union he had about 200,000 shares, and was picking it up as fast as he could knock it down. Honor?

I tell you that where phrenologists place the bumps of honor there must be a cavity in the head of Jay Gould. Cavity. A regular mammoth cave!

Peterborough Cathedral. Peterborough and its minister have been familiar objects in English history since the days of the conquest. Hereward, one of the latest of Charles Kingslev's heroes, ravished it when warring against the Normans, and from that time downward the name is constantly reappearing in English annals. On the Saxon monument of the Abbot Hedda, who died in the eleventh century,the light streams from memorial windows, the work of artist* still alive, and between 1,001) and I,SC. every generation has added something to the associations or the glories of the ancient pile. So great in early times was the sanctity of the shrine that a visit to its high altar was once considered equal to a pilgrimage to Rome, and it attracted in 13S7 no less important a pilgrim than Queen I'hilippa. Mary Queen of Scotts was buried there for twenty-five years—it was was her resting place between Fotheringay and Westminster Abbey. The cathedral still holds the remains of another ill-fated queen, and the tomb of Catharine of Aragon, on the north side of the choir, has not been disturbed. The central or lantern tower, which is to be pulled down, rises at the interception of the nave and transept. It is 130 feet in height, being feet lower than the turrets which flank the front. It was not till nearlv 200 years after the choir and the transe'pt were built that the tower was completed. It date3 from 1350. The nave was built 1177-1193, but the eastern aisle, which is perpendicular, was not completed till 1528. The cathedral is said to show characteristics of eight distinct periods of architecture. The removal of the central tower is said to be indispensable if the cathedral itself is not to be involved in ruin.

Some of Ingersoll's Views. Wash. Special to Commercial Gazette. Being pressed for his views on liquor legislation, the Colonel said: "If the Mississippi and all its tributaries were filled with pure whisk}', if tho hanks were loaf sugar, and all tli 9 low grounds covered with mint, there would be no more drunkenness than there is to-day. I believe in the restraining influences of liberty."

Col. Ingersoll followed this with a story about a man who asked another: "Would you like to live where no one ever drinks a drop of liyuor?" "Yes." "Where everybody is industrious?" "Yes." "Where everybody goes to church on Sunday?" "Yes." "Where no one talks of his neighbor?" "Yes." "Bat there is no such place. Such a place would be Heaven." "Oh, no any well regulated penitentiary is that way."-
