partner thought it was some cruel
joke, but when he produced the let

for his victim. Coolly he sat down
. by the rock to see his partner starve
TO death On the third day the i'll.
fatcd man signed the deed be-
Qucathing all his property to the in.
Ijurcd girl, and the brother attached
Il fictitious name as witness Of the

he was made the executor Of his
partners estate. He then wrote
letters saying he had fallen very i'll
Of fever on the plains, and if he did
not recover. these letters would be
delivered by his beloved partner.
All this the inruratc brother com
peeled the poor man to do and then
quietly await the end. Day by
day the partner grew weaker, and
the brother gloatcd over his misery.
often reading to him the letter
from his mother.
The poor man promised to marry
| the girl and make all the PREPARATION

brother was deaf TO cntrcatics. AT
last the partner dwindlcd to Il skcl-

burying his victims cmanciatcd
corpse in the sand. resumed his
journey TO St. Louis. There he gave
out that his partner had died while
on his way through the RocEcy
Mountains, and IN proof Of his as
scrtion, delivered the letters. The
will was also proved, and the girl
became the dead mans heir. Two
years afterwards the brother was
shot by Indians, and before he died
he confessed what he had done.
Some hunters visited the place and
dug up the skeleton. around the
neck Of which still was the chain
by which the poor man, when living,
had been fastened TO the fatal rock.
The spot is still pointed out to tray

in the presence Of his wretched
prisoner, but would not give him
a crumb, or II cup Of water to Stake

:. NIN.iI TIJ
We notice the proceedings Of the last meet
ing Of our city fathers in reference to the COM
1nuncatou Of the Chief Engineer OF the Fire
Department, aud also in reference to the report
of the Fire Wardens. 10 settle all difficulty in
regard to the matter, let all interested read

',AInch Ado About Nothing" and that will
satisfy the most tastidous that there arc two
characters Which the world soon learns to re-
mark, viz: The man who may oticlously pre-
sumo to exercise the work and responsibility of
official station to appease spite, and the man
who totally disrcgards respectable law.
