Of Prof. Jewett, the translator of Plato
and master Of Balliol College, Oxford :
"a student Of Baliiol lately lost parcel
OF Bakk notes. He told the master Of his
misfortune, who in turn told him to say
nothing about it, took the numbers Of the
notes, and covered the walls of Oxford
with posters proclaiming the loss, but Civ
the wrong numbers for the notes. The
thief fell into the snare, offered one ofthe
notes at the bank, was promptly arrested
and all the notes were recovered"

my part, / prefer to have the water lit

Tho Geological Gardens ct Pesth have Just
basn thu scens Of q combat worthy Of Nero or
hlngabalus. The cage tenanted BY lion and
nnnafs happened to be next to that In which
dweit q female leopard, for whom the captive
plrrn of the desert entertained q special ha-
ure,t- Probably she was jealous Of the bright
eyes and hsautihrl skin of her neighbor, and
mnF possibility have suspected her lord and
master of casting a tender regard or two
aaruaH the oarrfer which separated the two
dens- The suspicion, brooded over in silence,
harama dsyouring passion, and Il ripened
infn certainty at the precise moment when
vengeance happened TO become possible. The
heaper of tho gardens had inadvertently one
day laft hanging within the lions cage the
chain whirh served to draw w the partition,
and tbs non was not long in seizing Il and be-
thinning 10 pull. Whether he was animated
ny spirit OF dckieness, or by curiosity alone,
mrist remain foreyer q secret. But the result
was that the partition hew up, and the road
namainad open from one cage to the other.
rhrough it instantly rushed the lioness,
or1nthing hatred and malice, but the
INN had no sooner dropped the chain
anu prepared to follow In chase than
Hiis partcuIiis FILL, and the passage was barred
again In the meantime, however, a struggle
commenced between the two lady warriors
s'lntt m has not been seen In Europe since the

wonsted ut the first onset, attempted jumping
ant hanging to the top rails Of the cage. 1t
was al in vain, however,. She was brought TO
bay again. and compelled to fight face to face
with thu terrible invader. For twenty long
minufes tina battle ragged in royal style. The
marx and shoulders of the lioness were deeply
fnrrnwed with red gashes. But her victim
was avermatched and at length thrown on

per ton for mining, or in other words,
so cents per ton for rooms and Gu
cents per ton for headings, which
strikes me as being quite as liberal an
offer as could be reasonably expected
under existing circumstances.
Now, therefore, in view of the fact
that the Marylan coal company has
not been party to any OF the comb
nations against the miner or his in
terests, and Of the fact also that that
company, under its present manage
ment, has done, and is now doing, more
for the general interest of this coal
field than any other company in it; and
while | have steadily been an advo-
cate for reductions in other quarters,
as we'll as that Of the miner, yet for
the above reasons and under existing
circumstances, would certainly ad Use
the miners to accept the offer thus

little homes, are suffering by the great
depreciation of property. brought

say whether it is not wisdom on the
part of the miner to accept the ctter

There is no question about the fact
that we have very formidable com

miner behaved generously when they
made the concession of ten cents per
ton, yet it is evident that will not fully
meet the present requirements of our
trade. There has been equally as
heavy concessions made in other de-
pa. tments, and yet it is absolutely
necessary that further concessions be
made before we can resume operations.
Let the miner. therefore, come fol-
ward nobly and show his magnan
unity again by accepting the offer
already referred to, then, If the trade
