zzIEmrETs.-Sometime since we met
in the Hartford Courant with an anscdote 10
the effect that a retired merchant 10 that cty
from New York, forwarded anonymously, Tor
the purpose of making restitution for an en-
bezzlement committed long before. The
same gentleman. We are told, who was in bu-
siness some thirty years, and who has proba,
bly had in his employ more than one hundred
clerks, has, on several occasions, received
similar enclosures; at one time as high sum
as three hundred dollars. 1t is gratifying To
reflect that il there are many employees who
are mean enough to steal, there are also some
who have the grace to refund 10 after years
when experience has taught them the infamy

There are many who think that the world

hardens tho heart. The best proof to thu
contrary is shown in such restitutions as th'

COVER n or WALKERS LETTER

Governor Walker. in his recent letter TO
Messers. Cox and Lawrence, said that the
Conference bill, as interpreted 10y him, was
in precise conformity with bis views and
course not only in Kansas, but siace bis re-
turn and in following the path where his
duty and his conscience bade him, he must
support it,. If be adds, "the odious lie.
compton Constitution, born in fraud and bop
tised in perjury will be defeated by an over
whelming vote Of the people of Kansas, thus
demonstrating by practical result, the truth
of my Interpretation that this bill does in
fact submit the constitution to popular
suffrage for ratification or rejection. which is
all have required. With such a bill, and
such decision of that people under. it, no
formidable effort will ever be again made to
withhold from tho reople Of :nchoats States
a vote for ar against ra,iscation or rejection
of their State Constitution. and tho oligar-
chive doctrine Of constitutional Sovereignty
will be abandoned"

| THE GRnAf CJocK AT rRAsBune.-"The
priests aud military have retired, and am
now sitting 10 chair facirg the gigantic
clock--from the bottom to the top not less
than Que hundred feet and about thirty feet
wide and fifteen Deep. Around me ore many
strangers, waiting TO. see the working Of this
clock as II strikes the hour Of noon. Every
eye is upon the clock. 1t now wants five
minutes Of twelve. The clock has struck, and
the people are gone, except few whom the
sexton orhead man with wand and sword is
conducting round the building. The clock
has struck in this way the dial Is some 20
feet from the floor, on each side Of which is
cherub, or little boy with mallet. and over
the dial Is a email bell. The cherub on the
left strikes the first quarter, that on the right
the second quarter. Some fifty feet over the
dial. in large niche, is a huge 6gure OF Time
a bell 10 his left scytbe in his right hand
In front stands figure ola young man with
a mallet, who strikes the third quarter, Oh the
bell in the hand Of TINE, and then turns and
gldcs, with a slow step, round behind Time
comes out an old man, with mallet, and
places himself in front OF him.
AS the hour of twelve comes, the old man
raises his mallet, md deliberately strikes
twelve times on the bell, that echoes through
the building. and is beard all round tho region
of the church. The old man glides slowly
behind Father Time and the young man comes
on readily to perform his part, rs the time
comes round again. Soon as the old man has
struck twelve and disappeared, another: set OF
machinery is put in motion some twenty feet
higher still. 1t is thus there is high cross
with the image of Christ on it. The instant
twelve has struck, one Of the apostles walks
out from behind, comes in front, turns facing
the cross, bows, and walks on around TO his
place AS he does so, another comes out in
front, turns, bows and passes in. So twelve
apostles, figures as large as life, walk round
bow and pass on. As the last appears an
enormous cock, perched on the pinnacle OF
the clock, slowly flaps its wings, stretches
forth its neck, and crows three times, so loud
as to be heard outside the church TO some
distance, and so naturally as to be mistaken
for real cock Then all is silent as death
No wonder this clock is the admiration Of
Europe. 1t was made in 1911, and has per.
formed these mechanical wonders ever since,
except about fifty years, when it stood out of
repair.

SINGULAR PRESERVATION OF THE BONA.
PARTIES

Probably no family in all Europe has en-
countered as many personal dangers al that
of the Bouapartes. The elder Napoleon es.
capped unharmed from fifty pitched battles and
from dangers innumerable on other occasions.
His brothers also were often in imminent
peril, yet not one ever received mortal
wound The present Napoleon has escaped
several attempted nsspssinations. The late
assault upon him remarkably resembles that
upon his uncle by means Of the internal ma
chimp. The following account Of the event,
by Hazlitt, may interest our readers:
"On the evening Of October 10, 1900, Bona
parte had agreed to go TO the Opera House,
(then in the Rue Rcheleu,) but afterwards,
being fatigued or unwell. changed his mind,
and wished to stay at home. Josephine and
some others then with him, urged him to go,
and came to couch where he had fallen
asleep, wakened MIN and told him the hour Of
performance was near. One (lady probably
brought him his hat, another his sword. He
was in a manner forced into his carriage.
where he again full asleep, nEd was dreaming

wheu all on a sudden he awoke amid noise and
fame He had passed this river in great
peril, by torchlight, three or four years before
when his carriage was set ahoat by the stream
