A telegram was at that moment placed in the hand of the superintendent, and his face darkened as he lead it aloud : "Line down at Marston. No communication bcyoud." "And," interposed the enginer, wavering for an instant, "the loug drawbridge over the Deep liiver is beyond, and (immediately recovering .his hatdihuodj but no matter, the tender is a careful fellow, aud the red light will certaiuly be burning if anything is wrong.

The track for a few miles from the station was air Hue clear, and they rapidly pasted from sight to accomplish the purpose or leave tho engine a hopeless mass of broken and twisted iron, and two mangled and FrOSen corpses. Onward over the treacherous rails, through snow and ice, over cracking culverts and rocking bridges, they sped on as if driven by doom. The milestones seemed like the stones in
a graveyard, so swiftly they ran. In the thickening gloom of night, in a wild aud terrible storru of driving sleet, beneath a moouiess aud starless sky, they sped on with furnace crowded, steam hissing, and whistle screaming as demoniac laughter running a mad race against time and the elements and death! To those on tho cngiue it was triumph iu the present, no raatter how dearly purchased iu tho future; to those who guzed at the liory-hearted monster dashing through the gloom it was, indeed, as if the burning pit of the hereafter had been transported to earth arid harnessed to wheels. With hand on lever, with hoad out of the the cab-window; stood the engineer; with hand on bell-rope and whistle, and eagerly watching from the oppos te side, was the fireman, and both riding a race that would never bo banished from memory if they survived to tell the story, aud in the wild excitement dauger was for
