Ruel's books is about as valuable as a well slocked farm without any mortgages. He seems to know by intuition what sort of books will suit the people, and he writes for the masses. He has never yet written a book that was not a great success, but we predict that his latest wurk, “SEA AND LAND,” just issued by Dun. Linahan Jr Co., of St. Louis, Mo., will outstrip all of his previous efforts. It deals with sub jects that are always interesting, and he has treated them in away that adds fasei nation to interest. The Christian Reflector says: "The hook is a revelation to us had no idea that the subject could be treated in such an intensely interesting manner. It 's a great work, and we are almost persuaded to turn book agents ourselves and help to circulate it for the good it will do.” (See advertisement in another part of this paper )

Last Monday afternoon a team belonging to Charlie Robbins, while being driven, took fright at a plank lying in the road near the planing mill, and became unman ageable, breaking loose from the buggy, and dashing up Avenue F, at a frightful speed. Charlie Robbins, who was driving, and Jake Barnhart, were thrown from the buggy, but fortunately sustained only slight injuries. When about opposite the Independent office one of the horses stumbled and fell dragging the other along with it for some distance. The most valu able of the two horses, for which Mr. Robbins refused to take $125 a short time ago, bad its leg broken in the fall. The leg was so badly shattered that the animal was regarded as incurable and therefore shot. ANOTHER ART CRAZE.
