Wilson at Bull RIM.

When Colonel Henry Wilson, now can
didate for Vice President, was in Boston
raising a regiment, a little fellow one day
presented himself at headquarters and ask
ed for commission.
" Have you seen service?" asked Colonel
w.
eyes, Colonel, was in the three months
service"
"Were you at the battle of Bull Run ?"
81 was, Colonel"
Colonel Wilson has delicate vein of
humori in him; SO winking to his staff, he
asked (:
"And did you run we'll ?"
g used due diligence, Colonel. did
the best could, but couldn't keep up
up with you in that hack"

And he allowed him to get up. taking
care to maintain his grasp ON his arm.
But the scuffle had already attracted
attention Sand the miners came running UP
from all directions.
"What's this ?" What's the matter ?"
a score of them asked.
They saw by the handouts on Longs
wrists, that one belonging to their camp
was in the hands Of an officer, and did not
like it. They were jealous of the law, and
jumping to the conclusion that Long was
arrested for merely shooting some one in
row at Marysville, their first thought was
to rescue him.
"He shan't CO." shouted one.
Release him." added another.
"Don't let him take me,' pleaded Dave
Long.
The crowd began to close in.
"Stand back" thundered the detective,
flourishing his revolver. ~ am Detective
Black, from Sacramento, and this is my
prisoner. If any man dares to interfere, l
will shoot him down like dog"
Although threats of bullets were not
much in those days, the fearless bearing of
the officer, who stood firmly grasping
prisoner much larger than himself, and
opposing a single arm to hundred reckless
men, had its effect, and they stood, unde-
cided. Taking advantage of the momen-
tary truce, Black hurriedly whispered to
his nrieOner.
eff you don't tell them not to interfere
and that you've concluded it is best to 90
with me, I'll inform them what you've
done, and then they will take you"
With the halter scare on him again,
Long tremblingly spoke to the mob:
"Never mind friends. Don't interfere.
I guess I'd better go. I'll be all right"
"What is it you have done, Long ?" was
asked.
He turned paler than ever.
owe must know what it is. Was it
scrape in Marysville?
"Ye-yes. Never mind. I'll be back"
and his heart sunk at the thought that he
never would" back before long and tell
you all about it,
So the detective was allowed to depart
with his prisoner.
Two of Longs mess accompanied them
and the culprit was lodged in jail at Marys-
vile that night, while the murdered wo-
mans husband was released.
An effort was made by the authority to
keep the matter quiet, for while, but all
the facts leaked out and the angry populace
did not wait for the laws slow vengeance.
On the following Friday night, July I'd, the
miserable wretch was taken from the iail
by party of disguised men, and hanged
to tree whose broad boughs oversha dow
ed the scene of the crime.
In his last moments, with the moose
around his neck he confessed his guilt and
died praying for mercy.

Sunday Trains.

A curious dilemma in which Massa-
chusetts railroad finds itself is thus stated;
A passenger hurIying to the train on Sab
bath morning, arrives too late to purchase
a ticket before the cars move. The con-
ductor demanded the extra sum which is
claimed from those who do not purchase
tickets before getting on the train. The
passenger refuses to pay, and is sued by
the company. After one or two decisions
in the lower courts, it reached one of the
higher courts, and there shrewd lawyer
made the plea that as the trains were run
on the Sabbath day. in violation of stat
ute of the Commonwealth, the railroad had
no right to collect fares at all. The Judge
admitted the force of the the argument
and the jury was instructed to bring the
tardy passenger not guilty of any offence.
Sunday travelling may thus be made free, If
the railroads will consent to put the trains
ON the road and allow the public to get in.

of thought, once bright and beautiful, now
worthless and refused:
Pm sitting by the desk, George;
Before me on the floor
There lies worn out font of type,
Full twenty thousand score.
And many months have passed, George
Since they were bright aud new;
And many are the tales they told
The false, the strange, the true.
What tales of horror they have told
Of tempest and OF wreck;
OF murder in the midnight hodr,
OF war full many "Speck !"
Of ships that lost away at sea-
Went down before the blast,
OF stihed cries of agony
OF life's last moments passed!
or earthquakes and of suicides,
OF failing crops of cotton,
OF bank defaulters, broken banks,
And banking system rotten.
OF boilers bursting, steamboats, snagged,
Of riots, duels fought,
OF robbers with their prey escaped,
OF thieves, their booty caught.
OF food, and fire, and accident,
Those worn out types have told
And how the pestilence has swept
The youthful and the old;
OF marriages, of births and deaths,
OF things to please or vex us,
OF one mans jumping overheard,
Another gone to Texas.
They've told us how sweet summer days
Have faded from our view,
How autumn's chilling winds have swept
The leaf-crowned forest through;
How winters snow hath gone and come
Dark reign of storm and strife
And how the smiling spring hath warmed
The pale flowers back to life.
Ican't pretend to mention half
My inky friends have told,
Since shining bright and beautiful,
They issued from The mold
How unto some they joy have brought,
To others grief and tears;
Yet faithfully the record kept
OF fast receding years.

But at this big meeting heard one man

of queer preaching that was ever listened to,
in the wood or out Of it. His sing-song tones
and his imitation of sounds were so original
that they gave piquancy to his s., illustrations
that no report can present. The peculiar
tenet of this sect is, that immersion IS sa-

of her years to their gratuitous education
