the jailer went his rounds ut the usual hour
and put his guests in their little beds there to
calmly repose, as he supposed, until
another day. There were three soldiers
belonging to Pittsburgh barracks confined
/ for various minor offences. These three
occupied cells, Nos. !, , and ,, and Morrill,
was assigned to No. 1. Before going in,
the occupants of these four cells put up
iob which they afterward successfully
wo -ked. One Of the soldiers fixed up the
bed in his cell to look as if occupied, and
then secreted himself in some out-of-the-way
place and escaped observation. His cell
was locked up, and all the Others, their
occup. lnts being inside, were also secured.

servant of Uncle sam emerged from

" The SLEEPING SENTINEL. The MeSsen-
ger, in speaking of Col. Veazey's paper at
the - Camp Fire " of the Grand Army of
the Republic, at their recent annual en-
campment, in St Adams, says: " Col.
Neazey's paper related, in an entirely new
light, the historic incident of The Sleep
ing Sentinel, William Scott, Co. X. Third
Vermont Volunteers, who, as all remember,
was sentenced to be shot, pardCned at the
last moment, and afterwards killed in bat
tie at Lees Mills. Col Neazey was an Off
Ger Of the Third Vermont, and a member of
the court martial which tried him, and was
therefore in situation to know the facts
With the most graceful delicacy he brushed
away the web Of fancy woven by the poet
Janvier around the incident, and while he
would not say that President Lincoln did
not drive in hot haste to the scene of execu-
ton, he said that he, though present, did
not see anything of the kind, and on the
contrary. told how the whole plan Of the
apparently impending execution, but Sc
cretly designed pardon, was made and exc
cuted by Vermont greatest soldier. Gen.
VIM. F. (Baliy) Smith The paper was
admirably prepared, and wa, listened to
with the most rapt attention

We are sorry to be informed thar the de
10 sion Of Milierism is reviying in Vermont.
The world, it Is there affirmed by some, Is
coming to an end toward the close of the
present year Others think that the cata~-
tro ohe will occur during the present Win
ter. There are good many meetings and
there Is i good deal of preaching and ex-
cite ment, and all this shows less common
sense in Vermont than She usually gets credit
for.--N Y. Tribune.
The Tribune appears to be abolras well
informed concerning the progress Of Miller
ism in Vermont, As it was of GreeleyiSm in
the presidential campaign We are in a
position to be pretty well informed both
through our exchanges and other sources,
of be current news of the State, and we
have vet to learn that there is any unusual
"Adye. 1T excitement going on There is
about tn. same number of believers in this
strange do, 'trine, as there wa, dozen year,
ago. The Triitne can rely on Vermont
having the sal lie common sense concern
ing Millerism a she had concerning Gree
leyism.

HISTORICAL CHARr.-The genealogy of
European rulers is a standing perplexity to
students of history, though without clear
understanding of it, it is impossible to com
prehend the history of hereditary monar-
chies. To obyiate this difficulty, Mr.. c. S.
Halsey, principal of the High School in this
city, has devised genealogical and chrome
logical chart of the Rulers of England, Scot
land, France, Germany and Spain This by
system of lines presents the genealogy in
very simple and distinct manner, and by
adding the dates presents at view the con-
temporary rulers in the different countries
1t begins with Clovis, A. d. 4SI, and is
brought down to 1873, the greatest promi-
hence being naturally given to the present
century. We are assured that great pains
have been taken by Mr. Halsey to make it
accurate, and we can readily see how it can
be used to advantage in the school, class
room or library. The chart is printed on a
single large sheet which is folded into neat
binding Of green muslin. 1t is published by
CHM Brothers, of Boston.
