he WIS assaulted by six pro-sayery men, badly
beaten, and warned t. leave the sale at once. He

IN three sides by darkness and terror, gulf
on the right aud a gulf on the left, and before
him what seems an interminable void. He
looks alo!t; but no eve has yet reached the top
of the great eyeryachins dome; nothing is there
seen but the flashing Of the water dropping

nothing there meets his glance save darkness
as thick as lampblack but he hears wild
mourniul melody Of water. aud the waiting Of
the brook for the green and sunny channel left
in the upper world never more to be revisited
Down goes a rock, tumbled over the cliff by

melancholy. There it goes crash! it has reachs
