IT has been decided in England that a
bankrupt may not refuse to answer ques-
tons which are put to him touching his
estates and effects, even when such ques-
tons tend to criminate him. Such rule
might possibly be initiated to good adj
vantage everywhere, though it has been
the custom to treat bankrupts in this
country with the same immunity in this
regard as if they were arraigned as Grim
inals. But the English courts seem to
have gone too far in the other direction,
as it has been recently held that such an
examination may be introduced as evi-
dence in any criminal suit that may fol-
low; and man has been actually con
victed in criminal prosecution by his
own testimony given previously in bank
rupt proceedings.

THE Danbury Meas says: "Playing
game on the aged is not always product
i've of fiattering results. An old gentle
man who frequently comes in when we
are busy to talk about theology and the
planets, made his appearance the other
day at the Danbury Neeos office, when,
assuming his blandest smile, the editor
passed him a copy of the last report of
the Connecticut Board Of Agriculture He
was very much pleased with it. He look
ed it all over, and then, turning to the
beginning, commenced to read it aloud,
and the editor hopes to be nominated for
office if he didn't go clear through the
volume, carefully and intelligently spell
ing the long words, and sitting between
the editor and the door all the time"

To MEND RUBBER BooTs.-Get a niece
of pure rubber-an old shoe, as vulcaniz.
ed rubber will not answer. Cut this into
small bits. Put into bottle, and cover
it twice the depth with spirits of turpen-
tine or refined coal tar naphtha-not
petroleum naphtha. Stopple the bottle
and set it one side, shaking frequently.
The rubber soon dissolves. Then take
the boot or shoe, press the rip close to-
gether, and put on the solution with a.
camel's hair brush Continue to apply as
fast as it dries, till a thorough coating is
formed

The New York Wool Market.

There has been slight improve
ment in the demand during the last
three days, but dealers are, as whole,
still unwilling to sell, unless for cash
or on short notice. Manufacturers
generally cannot meet their demands,
and consequently no large business is
looked for until money becomes
easier and confidence is again restored.
Stocks of nearly all descriptions of
both foreign and domestic arestill very
light, and should an active demand
spring up we should have to look to
neighboring markets for supplies.
Several lots of new fall clip California
have arrived here, and this kind is
quoted at 2l@22c for bury, and 26}M
u for free; but as yet no sales have
been effected. Sales of $4,000 TBS and
10 bales Of bury spring are reported
at 222927c; 81 bales of spring, private.
The Boston market is steady, Califor-
MIA sells fairly; some has sold at good
prices. Spring wool Is firm. Sales of
1900 Tbs are reported at 26@264c. OF
fall, $4,000 Tbs have been sold on
private terms; 26, 800 Tbs secured, 75(a
S5. Advices from London show that
an advance of 4G91d has been estab-
lished in New Zealand. Nothing has
been bought on American account.

A PARODY.
In mighty Wall ere gold was low,
All proudly stood Jay Cooke 4 Co.,
And like torrent was the flow
0fgreenbacks rolling rapidly.
But Wall street saw another sight;
When stocks went down with money tight,
The bulls and bears began 10 fight,
And beloved most outrageously
Like train upon do own-hill grade,
To draw his cash each man essayed,
And furious overy broker brayed,
To swell the fearful deviltry.
Then shook the banks by panic riyen!
Then rushed their dupes like maniacs
driven!
To every land beneath the heaven,
FaI flashed the electricity.
But higher yet shall greenbacks go,
And faster yet the throngs shall now,
And deeper yet shall be the woe
OF swindled, duped depositors.
'Tis done! and greenbacks ninety-two,
The broken brokers all look blue;
And furious Gould and piOus Drew
Like Modocs, howl inc essantly,
The tumult deepens! On, We brave
Depositors, If ye would save
Your grenbacks from the tidal wave,
And draw them forth Immediately.
All! few shall win when brokers cheat,
And spread their snares for thoughtless
feet,
And every safe within the street
Shall be greenback sepulchre

BrotherlY Love

4 few weeks ago., criminal, who give the
name OF Mortimer, WAS tried IN sacramento,
Cal, for the murder OF = woman who had been
his paramour. Ho was sentenced TO death.
It was said that he had destroyed the lives OF
EIGHT women with whom he had maintained il
1icit relations No darker record OF crime was
ever made than that which WAS cited against
him at his last trial. a few days since the
keeper OF the Jail at Sacramento where
Mortimer was confined WAS startled BY the ring
ing OF . bell in tho interior Of the prison to
which none but an intruder or prisoner who had
broken from his coll could obtain access. He
took his revolver and entered the inner inclos-
ure. when he was confronted by . per-
son With q revolver in his hand aud his face
The fqa'ektsq Keeper Instantly ired, and with ef-
fect, as the disguised man fed across the
prison IN the direction Of Mortimers cell, before
which ho fell and died. It Was the brother OF
the criminal, a young man who resided in Lynn,
Mass. where he maintained respectable charac-
ter. His brother had gone from homo hfeeon
Years ago. and, in the interval, nothing had been
heard from him until the recent receipt Of let
ter signifying that he was in peril OF his nie.
and beeeeching his brother to come to him. MO
way OF aiding the wretched murderer appeared
possible, except through the daring strata5em OF
scaling the prison walls and taking the chance OF
oyerpowering the jaiier and iberatlrg the p!1s-
oner. The procession Of dir Mortimer's vactlins
must pass frequently before him IN the ngns
season- To them will now be added the image
OF his brother, who perished in the effort to res
cue him from q fato which he should have met
long ago, nnd who seems to have deaar1ed oet~
ter kinaman and better fate.
