A PIucky English Planter.

The Calcutta correspondent of the
London Times, describing the life of
English planters in India, relates the
following incident 81 naet planter
who, far removed from European
society, has managed to write and print
(not publish, I think) most laborious
book, for the purpose of proving that
all the religions of the world are trace
able to a poetical or astrological basis,
and that Christ is as much o myth as
Jupiter. This, he told me, is his
amusement. I found him in Oak
bungalow reading Max Muller, with the
freshness of boy and the closeness of
man accustomed to hard thought.
CHANGING to mention these facts to an
other gentleman, he said Yes, but
gentle as Mr.. So-and-so is, I'll tell you
what he once did. There was band
of Dacoits in the neighborhood, and in
the daily habit of levying black-mail
If the chief was paid monthly wage
the person SO paying was secured il
his property. Ii not, thieving was
allowed, and he soon lost far more thar
would perhaps have warded off the rob
bers for years. The chief one day
called upon Mr. -, and professed
to need sum of money. The English
man said, Yes, I will give you notes,
and he received the expected answer
that the man did not want notes bu
rupees. 1t was agreed, therefore, tina
the robber should call again for tn,
money, which would be provided
against q certain time. The planter
could have called in help, but the ex
pertinent was dangerous one, and h
resolved that he would not place an,
one else in the position of suffering
from the almost certain retaliation. H
armed two of his servants, Sikhs, ant
when the robber again appeared, pinned
him to the wall, tied him hand ant
foot, put him on an elephant, and car
ried him considerable distance t.
prison, where, before trial, he diet
from cholera. The act altogether wa
one of great daring the captor, seate,
on another elephant, held loade,
musket ready to shoot the robber i
case of an attempt at rescue, but tina
one act of resolution broke up the gang
and Dacoity, for time at least, was a
an end.

The Arrest of Won Arnim.

The arrest of Count Henry Won
Arnim in Berlin is an event OF so start
ling character that without further
information we shall not presume to
explain it. Count Henry Won Arnim is
one of the prominent statesmen of
Germany. He signed the treaty with
France at the close of the war. He
was Minister to France in time of
peculiar embarrassment, and he showed
the utmost loyalty and delicacy of feel
ing in that mission. But he quarreled
with Bismarck, who disgraced him. He
now proposes to vindicate himself in q
publication, and Bismarck suddenly
arrests him, seizes his papers, and
locks him up i'll police station. All
this is extraordinary, and we wish
Minister Bancroft, or some of the
euloglsts of the new Empire would OK
plain it. We can understand how @
statesman like Bismarck would, to use
an American phrase, shave no non
sense" from his foes. But what shall
we say of the freedom of country
which enables any minister, no matter
how powerful, to send rival minister
to police station like common felon
When Voltaire left Berlin with copy
Of Trederick's poems, which he meant
to print, that great King had him
arrested at Frankfort, and kept him UNI
der duress until he returned the volume
But this was done by an absolute King
at time when kings were absolute
and, Notwithstanding, it made great
scandal. The arrest of Won Amin, 6
proceeding no less arbitrary than the
arrest of Voltaire, takes place under @
free empire, "much resembling the
United States in it's laws and customs

Stealing Heavens Livery.

The great Alcoholics Remedy, VINE
GAR BITTERs, is everywhere driving
pestiferous rum potions out of the
market. That famous combination Of
the finest medicinal herbs on the con-
tinent OF America is accomplishing
such cures OF diseases which affect the
stomach, the liver, the bowels, the kid
neys and the nervous system, that the
grateful masses have adopted it as their
Standard Specific. The various rum
bitters have gone down before this pure
Vegetable antidote like tenpins before a
well aimed ball. The people have at
length discovered that all spirituous
excitants are worse than shams-that
both morally and incidentally they are
inimical to the well-being and safety
of the community. 1t won't do. The
handwriting is on the wall They are
weighed and found wanting. Rum
remedies are defunct, and VINEGAR
BITTERs, THE UNIVERSAL ANTIDoTE,
reigns in their stead.-C0m.
