It took hold o" me an' I couldn't git red of it, nohow. I knew that all was right about the engine. But that feelia' that there was danger ahead never let tip once after it got into my head. Queer, wasn't it? But 'twas so. I couldn't account for it after I'd found out there was danger, jeet as I'd felt, an' I hain't never been able to account for it senee. v.. . .-... It got dark quite early, on account o' the fog an' the rain ; it was dark as pitch afore we left Hoi brook, which was the list station we passed afore we come to the itlace where I see the ghost.

" Yea, 'fore God, I did," sea Jimmy, aa solemn as if he was a witness on the stand. "This is a pretty how-d'ye-do," eez the conductor, who didn't b'leeve we'd seen anything.'

That's a sure thing." Well, sir, they went tohuntin 'round, an they found a lot o tools an' things that the men who'd tore up the rails had left in a hurry, when they found the train wasn't goin' over the bluff as they'd expected. An' they found, too, when it come light, the body o' the man whose business it was to see to the curve, where it had been hid away after bem murdered. An' that man was the man whose ghost we had seen. Yes, sir. He'd come to warn us o' the danger ahead after the men had killed him, an was a waitin' for us to go over the rocks to destruction. , An' he'd saved US. :' I found out af terwErd that there was a lot o money on board, an I s'pose the men who tore up the track knew it. ..

He affected great austerity and opposed the King, whose policy it was to keep the clergy in subordination to the civil power. , He' fled to France in 1164, and appealed to the Pope, "who espoused his cause against Henry II. , The King confiscated his property, but, in 1170, Becket ,,. returned to England on apparently friendly terms, with the King. He soon after renewed his defiance of royal authority, and was assassinated in 1170 by four of the King's servants. He was canonized by the Pope in 1173. Michaeii Fabadat, P. ,E. S-, the dis tinguished English chemist and natural philosopher, was born in 1791. Though apprenticed to the trade of a bookbind er, and having received little or no education, he applied himself diligently to study and experimented considerably in electricity. Befriended by Sir Humphrey Davy, he progressed rapidly, and made many useful discoveries. He rose in rank and preferment, and was a Knight of several of the European orders and a member of the chief learned and scientific societies ia Europe and the . United States. In private life his character was irreproachable, and characterized by great humanity and modesty. He died in 1867. John Cade, the leader of a popular insurrection in the reign of Henry VI. , of England, was a native of Ireland ; but, claiming kindred with the royal House ot York, and assuming the name of John Mortimer, he collected 20,000 followers, chiefly Kentish men, who, in June, 1450, flocked to his standard that they might claim redress for the grievances so widely felt. He defeated a detachment of the royal forces at Seven Oaks, and obtained possession of London the King having retired to Kenilworth ; but, having put Lord Say cruelly to death and laid aside the appearance of moderation which he had at rst assumed, the citizens rose, gave his followers battle, dispersed them, and put Cade to death in the same year.

Bat the remedial virtue of . labor, i. e., sound bodily, exercise, is. greater than that of open-air Jife per $ss for among the rustic population of Scandinavia, Scotland and Northern Germany, who perform a large portion of their hard work in-doors, we frequently find models of health gad vigor far more frequently, than among ; the inhabitants of Italy, Spain, etc., who pass the greater part of their indolent, lives in open air. . . . ; But, besides all this, athletic exercises have a moral value, which oar social reformers have strangely failed to recognize; they afford" a diversion arid a vent to those animal energies which otherwise are sure to explode in debauch and all kinds of .vicious excesses. The sympathetic thrill by which the : mind accompanies a daring, gymnastic feat and the enthusiasm, of athletic contests form the most salutary and perhaps the only normal gratification of that love of excitement which is either the legitimate manifestation of a healthy instinct, or else a wholly irremediable disease of our nature. - The soul needs emotions as the body needs exercise, and the exciting sports ot the palaestra met both wants at once. We try to suppress these instincts, but their motives remain, and, if thwarted in their normal manifestations, they assert themselves in some abnormal way, chemically instead i of mechanically, as Dr. Boerhaave would say ; by convulsing the organs of digestion, since the organs of motion are kept in unbearable inactivity. In times of scarcity the paupers ot .unina ami Siam silence the clamors of their hungry children by dosing them with opium, and, for analogous reasons, millions of our fellow-citizens seek relief in alcohol they want to benumb a feeling which they cannot satisfy in a healthier Way. r ;: Mtej finishing his day's .work, the Grecian mechanic went to the gymnasium, the Roman to the amphitheater, and the modern European and American goes to the next " saloon," to satisfy by different methods the - same instihet--a longing for : a diversion from the dull sameness of business routine.'' There is j no question which method was the best; the only question is, which of the two bad substitutes" may be , the worse the brutalizing, i. e., soal-hardening spectacles of bloodshed of the Boman arena, or the soul-and-body-destroying poisons of the liquor-shop ?

Unsuspectingly they marched to their doom a splendid band of gayly-decora-ted warriors, whose very steeds pranced with pride to be the bearers of such cavaliers. Scarce had the last man entered, when the mighty portcullis fell, and the truth dawned upon them. From a hundred windows . a murderous fire opened upon thera.

A certain class of people regard rich men and women as their legitimate prey, and make them the victims of all sorts of unseemly requests such as insisting that ono shall contribute to an object for which he cares : nothing, on the ground of Ms reputed wealth, or because other people have given. The brazen way in which some people ask for autographs, photographs, recommendations, letters of introduction, and the like, and without the slightest claim upon the person applied to, and even without any person al acquaintance, is stupendous, and the more absurd the demand, the mora likely the applicant is to take offense when he is refused. AyyoTXno pjsorLE. There are two classes of them. Some people are very annoying without seeming to txj st , an conscious i t .tae fact. ; others appear to take a delight in tormenting their neighbors. The former may be cured by a little good counsel, while the latter are incorrigible.
