A TouGH "OLD Horse. "A Chicago
paper recently published tho following:
Yesterday afternoon Clark street mer.
chant bought II magnificent Saratoga
trunk at an auction sale OF the express
company, aud found that it contained II
quantity of stove wood. This leads to
the suspicion that some Of the cOmpany's
employers are in the habit ofllIling trunks
with worthless articles, to be sold 20 cred
ulous bidders at tho periodical "old
horse " salcs. 1t is II matter which re-
quires investigation.
The Virginia Chronicle thus explains
the mystery The ChrOniete can set the
Chicago papers mind ut rest in this mat.
ter aud satisfactorily explain tho stovo
wood in tho trunk. About eighteen
months ago ono of the Chicago demt
DloRcie arrived in Virginia in company
with an immense Saratoga trunk con-
tanning her wardrobe and marked g. o.
ID. She took up her quarters in house
on ID street and got herself in readiness
to receive the trunk. When the express
man came to tho house he demanded $3.50
charges on it, TO which she replied
81 have sent the piano player down to
the office with S35. suppose that was
the amount. Here is tho other dollar
which will make it square,"
Her air was so decided and business
like, that tho expressman look the dollar,
left the trunk and returned TO the office.
As soon as he got out Of sight the girl
took the trunk TO her room, ernptied 1t Of
its contents, and filed it up again with
stove wood. She then locked aud strap
ped it up and placed it whore the express
man had left it. In about fifteen minutes
he returned breathess, and said the $50
had not been received.
"The man must have run Off with the
money, but il you will leave it here | will
settle next week."
Can't DO it, madam business is bus
ness" exclaimed the expressman and
he put the trunk back on the wagon and
drove off, in spite Of her tears and en-.
treaties The trunk went back to the ex-
press office, and there being no call for it,
t was finally shipped back TO Chicogo,
and sold as above described.

SILVER SAFEIN A RIOT Among the
cars which were destroyed by the fire
during the prevalence of the riot were ten
or twelve which contained freight shipped
by the Pennsylvania lead company, of
Mansfield. 1t was generally supposed
that all Of the cars contained pigs of lead
and amid the surfeit Of other more vaua-
BILE and more easily transported goods, no
one thought of loading himself with this
heavy metal, On Tuesday, after the fire
il was discovered that three of the cars
contained pure silver, which had been
melted at the Mansfield establishment,
and which was on its way to the Phila-
delpha mint. The silver was in forms
of pigs of lead, and like the lead it had
melted and run down between the ties
and in the cutters. or course there was
no effort on the part of the company to
dissipate the impression that the cars con-
tanned nothing but lead, and as they look
| ed much alike, there were no attempts to
steal any of the more precious substance
On Tuesday the proprietors visited the
ruins and removed the metal. The val
lie Of the silver that was in the cars is not
definitely known, but the amount was
several thousand dollars. Ifttsburg TEL

the making of tho bond, or its forfeiture
but this extraordinary principle is stated:

because there is no mention OF blood
in the bond. Tho greater includes tho
less, says maxim of law older than Ven
leo. Permission TO take thing involves
n grant of the necessary ways and means
to take it. Both parties had agreed that
the flesh was to be cut without shedding
blood. 1t could not be cut without she'd
ding blood. Therefore they had agreed
(by presumption) to shed blood II the cut
ting took place. But you may say there
Is to DO no presumption ; Myiock stuck

that he was not without discretion as to

he called others to look at his customer,

Meanwhile Jonas drove homo. From

The value Of photography in times of
war was strikingly exemplifed during
the siege of Paris, by the introduction of
the Photographic post; but the present
war has demonstrated curious extestion
of its powers as means of offense. Dur
ing the bombardment of Rustchuk, a
band Of Bashi- Bazouks took advantage
of the absence of q German photograph
or, named Bauer, to break into his studio.
The owner had, however, already placed
his valuables in security, so that his visi-
itors found nothing but number Of old
plates. The result of their visit may,
therefore, be said to have been literally
negative. At last, in some adjacent cup
board, they spied what they took to be a
bottle full of raki. Pouncing upon their
booty, and fighting between themselves
for its possession, three of them shared its
contents between them. The "rahi,"
however turned, out to be nothing but a
solution of cyanide of potash /; and when
the owner returned to his studio, there
amidst the havoc, he beheld three Bashi-
Bazouks lying dead on the ground, with
the fatal bottle between them.-LOndOn

ARAFAT AND THE ARK.-The legends
of Noah and the Ark still cling to Ara
rat like its SHOWS. The fssure where, un-
der snow drift, lie the remains of the
ark is pointed out to visitors, and there is
a piece of the wood Of that vessel preser-
we'd in the treasure-house at Etchmaid-
zine. 1t looks very much like bit Of
fossilized or petrided wood. There is
only one place in the neighborhood where
the olive grows-in hollow on the les
ser mountain ; additional proof Of the
truth OF the scriptural account Of the
Deluge. On the flank of the mountain
stood village, since destroyed by an
avalanche or an earthquake, the name Of
which, Agourri (''He planted the vine'D,
recalls another incidsnt in the life Of

kettles in the house are turned upside

any Of them, and great care is taken to
prevent either man or animal-especially

without any coffin, in a shallow grave,

which time many offerings of food and

a BRAVE AcT.-The residents of
Barnstable, England, recently witnessed
Il very brave and humane act. Charles
Jones, hod carrier, while ascending
with heavy load of mortar a Fifty foot
ladder placed againt house which was
being repaired, when near the top OF the
ladder, suddenly stopped. George Cross,
a mason, who was waiting for ihe NOR
tar, saw that JCnes was tainting, and at
once descended the ladder, removed the
hod from the atter's shoulders and car
ried it TO the roof. He then again de-
scended the ladder, and found Jones in
fit and about to fall. Cross placed him
self back of Jones, and .hed to the lad
der tightly. The sick man struggled vo-
lently to free himself, and in his parox-
ysm bit Cross's arm, who no;wthstand-
ing maintained his grip. The struggle
went on for fifteen minutes, none of the
excited populace below daring to ascend
the ladder. AT last William Richard,
driver Of n van, bravely went up the lad
der to the aid of the mason. Soon after
ward a fire escape ladder was brought,
and Jones was lowered to the ground by
means ofa leather belt, unhurt, although
still in tho belt. Cross was exhausted,
and upon regaining the ground tainted.
