Weston failed to make out his little walk
Of five hundred miles in six days, but it is
said he succeeded in making about twelve
thousand dollars by his effort, which will
do much towards rendering him satisfied
with the result. He walked 430 miles in
the time set, six days, which is a feat that
but few could accomplish. and not many
are foolish enough to attempt. With the
exception of lame foot and an overpow-
ing inclination to sleep Weston appeared
to be but little the worse for his walk.

might be. The late defeat of the ministry
was fortunate event for the republicans.
