'' THE time is coming" says Mr.. NJ. L.
Dunlap, "when educated labor will be
more respected, but that day must be put
off until the Agricultural Colleges are out
Of the hands Of mere classical schoolmas-
ters and theological professors"
We hope the time will come when farm
ers will reclaim from the State University
the lands donated for an Agricultural Col
lege to Minnesota. The taking of these
valuable lands from farmers and bestowing
them upon " classical schoolmasters," was
the principal achievement Of Gov. Mar
shall's administration.
The St. Paul Press has lucid inter-
vals. In one Of these, by mistake, it
spoke as follows:
The more the currency bill which passed
the Senate is analysed the more objectiona-
bic it appears. If the House passes it in
its present shape, the President will veto it.
Under the circumstances our impression is
that the best thing Congress can do is to
leave the currency alone. II they should
by resolution announce this purpose to-
morrow it would do more to restore conf
dence and healthy tone to the financial
pulse Of the country than any measure
which could possibly be got through Con-
gress at the present session.
Reformed Episcopal Church which
recently met in council in New York,
made few alterations in the service of
the old Church. A long debate ensued,
after which the Rubric and invitation
to the communion were finally adopted
as follows:
Rubric-After the minister shall have
returned to the Lords Table, he shall give
the following or similar invitation:
Form-Our fellow Christians Of other
branches Of Christ's Church. and all who
love our Divine Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ in sincerity, are affectionately invit-
cd to the Lords Table.

The captain of small steamer
called the Catherine, bound from
Cork to Portsmouth, England, with
a cargo of butter, has just met with a
singular adventure at sea. The crew
consisted of but three hands-the
captain and two seamen. The Cath
crime left Cork on Oct. 2nd, and when
about twenty miles from Queenstown
the two men were engaged in shifting
jibs. While so employed sea struck
them, carried them away, and no
more was seen of them. The same
wave swept the captain off the yes
sci, which was thus left without a
hand. Fortunately, however, another
wave washed him into the rigging,
and he succeeded in regaining the
deck. Throughout the very heavy
weather which prevailed the captain
stuck, single handed, to his post, and
brought his vessel safely into Ports
mouth harbor on the afternoon Of Oc-
tober 9th.

A London dispatch of the 9th says
The chief authorities of the church
have decided to hold great interna-
tional Catholic Congress in London,
with the object of maintaining the
doctrine of Papal infallibility reas-
sorting the Popc's right to temporal
as we'll as spiritual power, and pro
claiming it the bounden duty of all
Christians to return to the allegiance
of Rome. It is stated this determine
ton is the result ofdirect instructions
from the Vatican, and some Of the
highest dignitaries of the church will
attend the Congress. Archbishop
Manning, in a speech at Westminis-
ter, admitted that the spiritual in
huence of the Pope had greatly in
creased since the loss of his temper
alities. If arbitration was ever to
supercede war the Pope would be the
only possible authorized arbitrator.
The Catholic world, he added, was
threatened with a controversy on all
the DEGREES of the Ecumenical Coun-
Gil. There was undoubtedly ap-
preaching one of the mightiest con-
tests the religious world had ever
seen. Therefore, it was necessary to
fearlessly put through the free press
of Engl md the Pope's rights and his
pretensions to worldwide allegiance.

CHAPTER XVI.


Succeeding a storm comes calm. Bright
and beautiful dawned the day of perfect
peace for the reunited lovers Claribel
and Clarence Pierre Levant had left the
country, supplied with funds by his kind
hearted and forgiving friend, Colonel
Markham, and had returned to America
to prepare for the coming Of the Colonel
and his friends.
The day for their departure had been
fixed, and the Colonel sat in his room en-
gagged III meditating over the scenes Of the
past few weeks.
Suddenly, from his window, he observed
Bernard Burdois coolly sauntering up the
walk to the house. 1t was the first time
he had presented himself since the abduc
ton He had returned the day after Mr..
Markham, his wife and daughter had left
the valley-cabin, and divining the truth
from Mother Manganese report, had deter
mined to make the best of it.
MIR. Markham sat filled with mingled
emotions Of dread and Indignation. Sud
denly he started. There, cowing directly
behind the scornfully y-smiling Burdois and
entirely unperceived by him, was a wo-
man, i'll whose resemblance to some wild
eyed Nereid few would have recognized
the former belle of Rome, the Countess
Blanca Tutti Her face, worn and creased
with care and suffering, glowed with the
baleful flush Of revenge, while her eyes
seemed to burn in the intensity of the aw-
full passion which possessed her.
In her hand she carried a long, glittering
stiletto, which, as she reached the object
Of her vengeance, with cat-like tread, she
raised, and with a scream Of maniacal glee
and passion, plunged it into the heart of
her recreant lover. Without a sigh or 4
murmur the unfortunate man sank to the
ground, while Mother Mangano, who had
apparently followed the murderess, flung
herself with means of anguish upon the
dead body of Bernard Burdois.
Then it transpired that he, the self
acknowledged son Of Colonel Markham,
had perpetrated base fraud upon him at
the instlgation Of Richard Delevan, who
had furnished him with the ring and Gre
dentlals to consummate his plans. The
last load was removed from the COloners
heart, and he soon after authenticated his
first wife's death previous to his second
marriage.
The Markhams and Clarence Thurston
were accompanied to Virginia by Paul
artist friends sister, Theresa. Thus q
happy bond Of union was cemented, and
Pierre Levant found glad sense Of peace
fulness in witnessing the happiness of the
Colonels family, the gratitude Of his wife,
and the punishment and death Of their a1-
versaries.

Five years later, when revisiting Italy,
Clarence Thurston came face to face with
the Countess Blanca Tutti Tie and few
friends were visiting an asylum recently
erected and in charge Of an acquaintance,
an American gentleman, who had there
located the refuge, because Of the salutary
air and surroundings A blear-eyed, ldiotic
woman, kept in close confinement, was
pointed out to the party as the most in
curable of all it's inmates. No intelligence
cleaned from the once beautiful eyes, none
Of the former beauty graced the wan fea-
lures Thurston turned away with a
shudder, for in the poor maniac he had
recognized the Countess Blanca Tutti.
When he reached home he knolt to his
Maker and thanked Him, that through
the instrumentality Of his beloved wife all
those fatal influences were dead which had
bound him 50 closely, when this now de-
mented being had held him UNDER A
SPELL.
