CHAPTER Y.
MIGHT AND RIGHT.

While James Mayhem was unconscious
ly becoming party to scheme in which
was to be involved the honor and safety of
his old companion and friend, Robert Par
ton, that parsonage was again down to hard
labor with new ambitions, but with the
same answering fidelity to principle,
which he had ever evinced.
IL he knew that he was really In love,
all the common sense which he had ever
possessed warned him against too abrupt
exhibition of the new affection he expert
enced, an emotion he had never before
known. At glance he realized the bar
rier which wealth had built up between
himself and the object of his love, and
realizing bitterly the distinction, he proud
ly refused to succumb to its influences.
He loved honorably, he loved truly, but
he would not allow that love to withdraw
him from his ordinary method Of thought.
If in time he ascertained that that affec-
ton was returned he would meet any OBJ
lection manfully, and would oppose the
restrictions Of the pride Of birth, that the
father of Ethel Tremsyne might interpose
and maintain his position % q man.
So love did not disturb his ordinaIy y
business relations. He pursued his course

Alleged Failure of the Danks Pudding
Furnaces.

The fourth annual report Of the direc-
tors of the North of England Industrial
Iron and Coal Company Limited, was
issued to the shareholders yesterday
Therein the directors state that the gloom
which has universally overshadowed the
iron trade during the past six months has
affected the business Of the company 50 far
as to transform the fair profit realized du-
ring the first half-year, which enabled
them to pay an interim dividend Of 2. per
cent.-into a considerable loss on the
aggregate transactions of the IL months,
amounting to Els, ,922 les. Sd. The loss
is chiefly attributed to the sudden fall in
the value of pig iron and the great depre-
citation in the market value Of the stocks
of iron and raw material on hand. The
company, however, has also seriously
suffered from the signal failure of Danks
Patent Pudding Furnaces, as originally
constructed, to yield the profitable results
fairly to be expected from the statements
Of the patience, corroborated as they were
by the report Of the Commissioners ap-
pointed by the English iron trade to en-

A resident of New Haven has given
up steamboat travel. Not long ago,
having occasion. to visit New York, he
started for the steamers landing, with
a carpet sack in one hand and cane
10 the other, in what he supposed to
be ample time. But when he came
within sight of the wharf he observed
the boat apparently swinging away
from her moorings, and amid the
shouts and jeers Of the bystanders he
broke into frantic run for the land
ing. The boat was eight or ten feet
from the wharf when he reached the
place where he had hoped to find a
gang plank, bnt nothing daunted and
trusting to the momentum acquired
during the run, he leaped into the air
ard gained the vessels deck. Not
without accident however. The car

leEtly in the stomach that he doubled

whole flask of brandy in getting

Desperate Suicide Of a Maniac.

From the Carlisle (Ky.J Mercury. Sept l'ih.l
The most desperate, the most horrible

Johasa Wire, living about two miles from
Flemingsburg, was q wsak-mindsd young
man, his mind, from some cause, having
been affected for four or five years. We
do not know that he was ordinarily any
thing more than n harmless or simple
minded fellow, allowed to carry out his
peculiar whims and do as ho chose. But
during the past few weeks his conduct
was such as to cause his friends TO keep
A surveillance oysr him, lest no harm
himself or somebody else. On the day
in question, however, he took advantage
Of q favorable opportunity and got out
OF the house. An uncle, who had been
with him, started toward him, when
Wire, with his open pockst-knifo In
hand, said: "Stand back! Don't come
near me, or I'll cut you! I have been
wanting to kill myself, and now intend
to make q good job Of It," 30 saying,
he made n dash at his throat, cutting 1t
three times and making horrible gaahss.
He then, with his own hands, pulled at
and opened the gsshss, and sndeavorsd
to pull out tho wind.pips! His unclo at
ono time vontured to grasp him, bat he
was cut in tho stomach by the maniac
and kept at bay. The wound inflicted
upon him, however, was but skin deep.
Wire was finally secured and taken to
the house, where he fingered until Fri.
day, suffering intense agoniss. He was
about twenty-five ysars Of age, and I'M
