THE LADY's REPENTANcE.-Iu the
life of DR.. Rallies, just published, the
following story was told in conncc-
ton with a preaching journey in
1914. On our way from Wen to
Ilawkcstone we passed a house, OF
which Mr. Lee told me the following
occurrences: "A young lady, the
daughter Of the owner Of the house.
was addressed by man, who though
agreeable to her, was dislikcd by her
father. OF course he would not
consent to their union, and she de.
tcrmined to elopc. The night was
fixed, the hour came, he placed the
ladder to the window, and in a few
minutes she was in his arms. They
mounted a double horse, and were
sccna at some distance from the house.
After a while the lady broke silence
by saying: We'll, you see what a
proof have given you Of my afrec-
ton; Ihopcyou will make me a good
husband. lie was a surly fellow and
gruilly answered: Perhaps | NAV.
and perhaps not She made him no
reply, but after a silence of some
minutes, she suddenly exc aimed
90 what shall we do have left my
money behind me, in my room =
Then said he, we must 90 back and
fetch it, They were soon again at
the house, heladder was again placed,
the lady remounted, while the i'll
natured lover waited below. But
she delayed to come and so he gently
called; Are you coming (? when she
looked out of the window and said
Perhaps | may, and perhaps not :
then shut down the window. and left
him TO return upon the double horse
alone. Was not that a happy thought
on the lady's part-a famous joke ?''

This Machine has the following advantages over
all other Cylinder Meat utters:
LIST. 1t is much more simple in its construction,
There are bat four different parts inside of the
Machine, all of which can be readily taken out,
separated, cleaned and replaced, consequently
there is no place about the Machine where meat or
the juices ofmeat can find Judgement, and become
rancid.
2nd. The fingers on the arbor are so arranged
that they shear close to the knives when the Ma
chine is in operation, cutting the meat clearly and
evenly, leaving no strings, instead of tearing it
apart is the with other Cylinder Machines.
Sd The knives are firmly held in their places
at one end by the block ofiron into which they are
cast and at the other end by the grooves the
Dor, making it impossible for one to break while
cutting meat
4th. The Machine will cut meat more rapidly
than other Machines, and with less power for the
quantity cut.

Suddenly | saw them tumbled over by
lurch of the avalanche, and immediate
ly afterwards found myself initiating tbei
motion. This was caused by SECOND
crevasse. Jenni knew of its existenc,
and plunged right into it-a brave anC
manful act, but for the time unavaling
He is over thirteen stone weight, and h,
thought by jumping the chasm sirair
might be put upon the rope sufficient tC
check the motion. He was, however, vi
olently jerked out of the fssure and al
most squeezed to death by the pressure
of the rope. A long slope was below Us
which led directly downwards to brow
where the glacier suddenly fell in a de-
cIivity OF ice. AT the base Of this decliv.
ity the glacier was cut by series of pro.
found chasms, and towards these we were
now rapidly borne. The three foremos!
men rode upon the forehead of the ava
lanche, and were at times wholly miners
ed 10 the snow but the moving layer was
thinner behind, and Jenni rose incessant-
y and with desperate energy drove his
feet into the frmer substance underneath.
His voice shouting ''halt I! halt !" was the
only one that was heard during the de
scent. A kind of condensed memory,
such as that described by people who
have narrowly escaped drowning. took
possession Of me, and thought aud rea-
soned with preternatural clearness as |
rushed along. Our start moreover was
too sudden, and the excitement too great,
to permit of the development Of terror.
The slope at one place became less steep,
the speed visibly slackened, and we
thought we were coming to rest; the av-
alanche, however, crossed the brow which
terminated this gentler slope, and regain
ed its motion. Here H threw his arm
around his friend, all hope for the time
being extinguished, while | grasped my
belt AMI struggled for an instant to de.
taeh myself Finding this difficult, re
sumed the pull upon the rope. Ny share
in the work, was, fear, infnitessimal,
but Jenni's powerful strain made itself
felt at last. Aided, probably BY slight
change of inclination, be brought the
whole to rest within distance Of the
chasms over which, had we preserved
our speed few Seconds would haYe
carried us. None of US suffered serious
damage. H emerged from the snow
with his forehead bleeding, but the wound
was superficial .Tenni had bit Of flesh

rapidly, but their fire had resulted in only
one casualty on our side At New Or

parade and review.
From Newbern We learn that the recently
executed Union soldiers, twenty one in
number, who were hung at Kinston on
charge of having deserted from the Rebel
conscription, met their fate with unfinch-
ing determination, and scornfully rejected
all offers OF reprieve upon condition Of re-
turning to the Rebel service.

Reported Interview Between Lee and
Mcclellan.

ACSlCliou.
An exposition in the Tribune of an
interview which took place near An
tietam between Mcclellan and Lee,
has created considerable feeling. It
was published in the Tribune that a
written communication had been sent
to the Secretary of War, by a cousin
of Lee, a Maryland Legislator, stating
that during the battle of Antietam
General Lee had his headquarters at
his house, that on the night after the
battle he sent messenger into our
lines to General Mcclellan, requesting
an interview at his headquarters;
that General Mcclellan, accompanied
by some of his staff, rode that night
through the rebel lines, and had long
interview with General Lee, who,
among other things, informed McCle!-
Ian that his army was crossing the
Potomac.
The points corrected by the correspon
dent of the Chronicle, who signs his name
"F. W." are-"1. I am not cousin of
General Robert Lee. =. No interview
could have taken place between the par
ties during the battle of Antietam at my
house, as live about ten miles from that
place. 8. The interview took place three
or four days afterwards, and was at the
suggestion of a mutual friend than courted
by either party. +. At the time of the
meeting General Mcclellan was alone, aud
General Lee came through the lines of the
United States army under my escort,
having received a solemn pledge of per-
sonsl safety from General Mcclellan for us
both. 5. The communication was not made
by myself. The interview lasted some
three hours, during a short part Of which
time | was present.
The F. W. who informed the War
Department of the interview is found
to be Mr.. F. Waldron. He is in Gus
tody at the Capitol, and will be brought
before the War Committee to testify
all that he knows. 1t is said that Mr..
Waldron informed the Secretary of
War that during the interview General
Mcclellan was informed by General
Lee of the rebel army's retreat across
the Potomac. 1t is understood that
the War Committee will have every
person brought before it who is likely
to know anything concerning this in
terview.
1t is difficult to know what to be-
lieve Of the above. But if true, and
not communicated to the President bv
Gen. Mcclellan, a summary example
ought to be made.
