up, but in an instant | was seized by pow
erful hand, and handkerchief, which is
the instrument used by the Thugs in their
work, was twisted around my neck man,
aged to thrust my left hand between the
fold of the handkerchief and my throat, and
thus prevented the scoundrel from strang
ling me at once. By a powerful effort
succeeded in gaining my feet, but the fel-
low hung on to me with almost superhu
man strength. I was counted then one OF
the most powerful men in the army, and
was much larger and heavier than my an.
tagonist, but it was just as much as | could
do to keep him from mastering me. By the
dim light of the moon which struggled in
through the opening of the tent recognized
in my adversary my native spy Ali. Like
lightning it flashed across my mind that
the whole affair was plot. All had been
sent to win my confidence and throw me off
my guard. The shooting of the Thug a
week back had been simply part of the
plot | knew that had powerful and des-
perate man to deal with, and | nerved my
self to the task before me-
"The fellows grip Oh the handkerchief
was like that of a vice, and it seemed that
he would crush my left hand. The strain
on my throat was terrible, and | felt that
unless it was released very speedily would
be at his mercy
"a novel and desperate plan presented
itself to me in this emergency and at once
proceeded to put it into execution.
"Bracing myself for mighty effort, |
sank back slowly, as if being gradually
overcome, and Ali with triumphant glance
frightened his grip on my throat, and bent
over me until his flashing eyes were Just
above my face. With sudden bound |
sprang forward, recovering myself and
throwing Ali backward. At the same in
stant | spit, with true aim, a mouthfu of
tobaccojuice straight into his eyes Thor
oughly astounded and thrown off his guard
he relinquished his hold on the handkerchief
and with yell Of pain clapped his hands
to his eyes. This was just what had eX-
pected and in another instant put him out
of the way of doing more harm by sending
a pistol-bullet through his head.
"The next morning the expedition had
sent out returned, bringing two prisoners
with them. From these learned that my
would-be assassins was no other than the
notorious chief Of the Thugs, RuDihcct, who
had sworn to take my life in revenge for
the damage had inflicted upon his sect.
/" In month more | returned to Calcut-
ia, having thoroughly accomplished the
work assigned me-"

SOUND ASLEEP.

Some are laughing, some are weeping
She is sleeping, only sleeping
Round her rest wild flowers are creeping ;
There the wind is heaping, heaping,
Sweetest sweets of summers keeping,
By the corntields ripe for reaping
There are lilies, and there are bushes
The deep.rose, and there the thrushes
Sing till latest sunlight tiushes
In the West a fresh wind brushes
Through the leaves while evening bushes.
There by day the lark is singing,
and the grass and weeds are springing;
There by night the bat is winging;
There forever winds are bringing
Far off chimes of church bells ringing.
Night and morning, noon and even,
Their sound fills her dreams with Heaven:
The long strife at length is striven;
Till her grave bands shall be riyen.
Such is the good portion given
To her soul at rest and shriven.

A LAW JoKE.--A lawyer of fluid tenden-
cies was discussing some nice point of law,
and getting out of patience at the inability
of the court to take his own view of it,
said the intellect of the court was 50 dark
a flash of lightning could not penetrate it.
The Judge, being a newcomer, and not
knowing the peculiarities and failings Of
the man, imposed severe punishment on
him for contempt of court. Some of the
lawyers friends stated the case to his hon
or, and the punishment was remitted ON
the condition that he should publicly apol-
ogize to the court. He was accordingly
brought up the following morning, and
made amends by saying
I" | regret very much that said, in the
heat of the moment, that the intellect of
the court was SO dark lightning could not
penetrate it. guess it could 1t is a gerry
penetrating thing"

A FATAL DRINKING WAGER-A foolish
wager was made at wine shop which re-
suited in death At a breakfast, where
the conversation turned on the quantity of
drink which person could take, a Brick
layer, named Florentine, made a bet that
he would drink twelve glasses of wine
when the clock of the Tuileries was strik-
ing twelve. He drank three glasses be-
fore the clock had struck three times AT
the next glass he stopped to breathe AT
the seventh he began to drink more slow
ly but, making an effort he drank off the
eighth gllss. He then turned very pale
and breathed with difficulty His friends
wished to stop the wager, but he said he
would go on, come what might, and swa
lowed the ninth glass. He had hardly emp
tied the glass when he fell down senscless
A surgeon was sent Tor but in spite of al
his efforts, the foolish man died in three
hours.

AN old lady who recently visited Oneida,
New York, was asked on her return if the
canal passed through that village. She
paused while, and answered: "I guess

CASTING OUT DEvLs-NVe have a friend
Methodist preacher, and jolly fellow he
is. He has a large muscular frame with
corpulence to correspond has a huge hand
with powerful grip-save us from giving
him serious offence if he were a common
sinner has inexhaustibe vitality, and
would not be over-del icate in perpetrating
joke, even if it should be a little rough
and has withal LONELINESS which his com
plexion does not greatly relieve. This
friend Of ours is an earnest worker, and
has well earned reputation as revival
lst. Some years ago he was holding q
meeting at which quite an interest was
awakened A number of persons had come
to the mOurners seat, and some had been
converted. One evening a group, co ,sist-
ing OF two or three young men and as many
young ladies, were present, whose object
in coming was to have mcrriment Our
friend the minister having noticed their ma
noeuvreS for a while, and thinking it was
time they were checked, found his way to
them, and addressing himself to the young
men, kindly requested them to observe the
decorum befitting the place. One Of them,
whose ideas of pOlitcness were hardly up
to the mark, venturcd in a rather ungra-
cious manner to reply that they " had I'M
derstood that miracles were worked there,
and they had come to see some performed -
Upon this our robust friend, the minister,
coolly took the young man by the coat col
lar, deliberately led him down the aisle,
and, opening the door, without further GER
emony landed him outside, quietly remark
ing, We do not work miracles here, but
we cast out devils !"

The PREsENT.--In order to enjoy the pre-
sent, it is necessary to be intent on the
present. To be doing one thing, and think
of another is a very unsatisfactory mode
Of spending life Some people are always
wishing themselves somewhere but where
they are, or thinking of something else
than what they are doing, Or Of somebody
else than to whom they are speaking. This
is the way to enjoy nothing, to do nothing
well, and to please nobody 1t is better to
be interested with inferior persons and IN
ferior things than to be Indifferent to the
best. A principal cause Of this indiilor-
ence is the adoption Of other peoples tastes
instead of the cultivation of our own-the
pursuit after that for which we are not fit.
ted, and to which consequently, we are not
ii reality inclined. This folly pervades
more or less, all classes, and arises from
the error of building our enjoyment on the
false foundation Of the worlds opinion, in
stead of being, with due regard to others
each our own world.

- The following is an easy method of
detecting whether the red color of wine is
artificial or otherwise: A small piece of
bread or of sponge which has been well
washed is dipped into the wine and then
placed in water. If the color is artificial
the water will be at once colored; other
wise the color will not be apparent for
half an hour.

: A MODEL OBITUARY.. Bangs, we
are sorry to say, has deceased, and
western obituary thus pays tribute to his
memory: "Jem was generally consid-
cred good fellow. He went forth with
out struggle, and SIGH is life. To-day,
we are as pepper-grass-mighty smart
Tomorrow we are cut down like cucum-
bers to the ground. Jem kept nice
store, which his wife now waits on. His
verchews were numerous to behold. Many
is the things which we bot at his grocery,
and we are happy to state to the admiring
4 world that he never cheated, especially in
the weight Of mackerell, which was nice
and smelled sweet. His surviving wife
was the same way. We never knew him
to put sand in sugar, though he had big
sand bar in front of his house, nor water
his liquors, though the Ohio river runs
past his door. Peace to his remains. He
leaves wife, children, COW, a grocery
store, and other quadrupeds to mourn his
loss, but in the Langwidge of the poit,
his loss was their eternal gain.

SOMEWHAT AsToNIsHED.--Af family
in La Crosse, Wisconsin, have been miss
ing stove wood for several weeks past
On the return of the family few days
since, the cause was stated, and Sunday
night very pretty stick of fuel was left
with others on the wood pile. In the
stick was two ounces Of powder, for safe
keeping. Monday the stick was there
Tuesday the stick was gone. Wednesday
forenoon an explosion was heard in house
/ near, and a kitchen was spared no panes.
On going to the spot sight might be
seen. The stove had joined piece con-
ference. A kettle of pork and cabbage
shot up through the roof like an arrow
A dish of apples that we're stewing on the
stove gave the ceiling the appearance Of
The map Of California. A cat sleeping
under the stove went through the window
as though after the devil or the doctor
The cat has not been heard from since,
but a smell of burnt cat hair pervades
that house very thoroughly. A fat-iron
was hoisted into a pan of dough, chair
lost three legs, the wood-box looks sick,
while the roof of the house looks like a
bursted apple dumping. The occupants
