at was fearful time that followed

"It was fearful time that followed
almost beyond description = certainly
enough to Danish reason. Margaret
shrieked and prayed. The uproar Of the
elements sent her words back to her, ap.
pearing to mock her agony. These fran.
tic moments were interspersed by brief
intervals of calm, when the past swept
before her like panorama.
"All the while the moments slipped
by, and the waves rose higher and higher
at last one dashed over the rock and did
not retreat. Wildly, despairingly she
flung out her arms, and prayed for succOr
for mercy; then, kneeling, she wept.
1t was hard to die thus; made harder by
the knowledge that the morrow was to
have been her wedding day.
"Now the waves began to break over
her, threatening to hurl her from the
rock. Madly she strove to cling to it,
but her hands being tied rendered her al
most powerless. In few minutes all
must be over. That idea gave her
strength, and with a last effort, she
shrieked aloud in her agony till the rocks
rang with her voice.
WRichard, Richard, aid me! Am to
die thus, never again to see you! Rich
ard, Rchardr
"What was that? She sprang to her
feet, every pulse beating with hope. 1t
was voice in reply; it was Richards
voice, uttering her name. Once more 1t
sounded. 1t came from above; and rails
ing her face she beheld on the headland
the tall, strong figure of her lover out
|@iined against the dark, leaden sky. Her
hear: sank. Before he could get his boat
all would be over.
"'Oh, Richard, dear Richard,' she
called; be comforted. Seeing you, can
die happy! But help is too late. Fare
well-farewell!
"The figure had gone. Like an arrow
it darted from the top of the headland
and plunged into the sea beneath. Mar
garet uttered a scream of alarm, then
hoped-recollectin that Richard was
one of the best swimmers in Cornwall.
difficulty keeping her position, each Sec
ond covered by the waves, she waited.
All! what was that which struck against
her so heavily9 1t was a body-that of
William Redruth! With a scream, Mar
garet tainted.
struggling through the surf, Richard
sprang to her relief, guided by that last
cry. His arms were about her as con-
seriousness departed, and with difficulty
he bore her safely to shore.
''The wedding did not take place the
next day, for Margaret was Frustrated by
nervous fever, but it did take place a
few weeks after, and was one of the hap
piest and gayest in ali Cornwall, despite
the evil plots of William Redruth, as to
whose fate there was no longer any mys-
terry. In springing from the rock, his
head must have hit violently against some
hidden boulder; for the next morning,
when the tide went down, he was found
drowned, with wound on his temple, at
the very foot of the Lovers Leap"

Rotation in Office.

Up to the beginning of. General Jack.
sons term Of Office, there had been, dur
ing the forty years Of his predecessors,
112 removals of such officers as required
for their appointment "the advice and
consent of the Senate" These few re-
movals were not made from caprice, or
to punish enemies, or to reward partisans,
but for cause and by strict rule. The
power of removing was exerted so excep-
tiOnally only for just and salutary pur-
poses, and was never used as an instru-
ment of party success. Public policy
dictated its exefcise. Offices were not re.
garded as the private property of Presi.
dent, or as the perquisites Of party, but
as trusts for the general good.
General Jacks0ns accession to the
Presidency began revolution. Differ
ences Of opinion were punished by re.
moval from Office, and partisanship was
rewarded with places of profit. His sue.
cessors have adhered too closely to pre-
cedent which has almost solicited into q
party law, or principle Of American
politics. No party can claim exemption
from the sin of using the civil list fol
party ends. The Wing, Democratic, and
Republican parties, in the distribution Of
patronage" in Federal, State, and mu'
nicipal governments, are alike obnoxious
to censure. The poison has infiltrated
every vein and artery of the body polite
Every branch of Federal and of State
service has suffered from the vicious max
i'm that offices are spoils to be divided
AMONG the victOrs in a marty contest
Too often the condition precedent to ap
pointment is unquestioning submission tt
party DEGREES, indiscriminate support o.
party measures. The right to remove in
cumbents is now conceded Presidential
prerogative, acquiesced in by all parties

Socialism in Russia.

The Socialistic movement, which in
Western Europe has constantly asserted
itself in the great political cow ulsions
of modern times, is making itself felt in
Russia and throughout the entire mass of
the Slavonic peoples. Recent kilograms
from st. Petersburg announce the trial
reused n marked degree Of interest
throughout Russia.
The crime with which the accused were
charged was "the organization Of secret
societies" and 1.-THE distribution Of crimi-
nal writings" The facts ELECTED by the
trial are (D the extraordinary develop
ment of Socialism throughout this En-
pire and again, the. classes Of persons
who were engaged in disseminating these
doctrines. No less than five ladies of

Gated among them is the Princess liz
ianotf. Abandoning rank and luxuries,
these ladies are found to have devoted
their lives to the work of propagating
their peculiar doctrines, Disgusting them
selves as peasants, going about often bare
footed aud in coarse clothing. The teach
ings reported by the witnesses are, that
the true and just division of society in
primitive times was AN equal division OF
all property. They have urged upon the
simple peasants that this is the doctrine
taught by the Holy Evangel, and wa.
devoutly held by all the saints Of the
Greek Church. Above all, they have
pictured this as the "old Russian idea,
and is the basis of the constitution of the
village commune or Nair. Just as the
community hold their lands in common
and determine when and where certain
crops shall be sown, what shall be used
for pasture, and what for other purposes

Feeding-Habits Of Owls.

The owls are intensely carniverOus. The
diminutive ones will feed largely upon in
sects, and some of the large kinds will
eat them occasionally. But Nature has
made them for providers, and as such we
find them fond of flesh, fowl and fish. So
immense is their destruction of the small
er rodents, that they are worth millions
to the agriculture of our country. They
are the feathered Nimrods of the night.
Even the American hare, the rabbit
wrongly called, falls an easy victim.
Some of the owls can fish, too. But
whether hunting, fowling, or fishing, they
lack the style of doing it which belongs
to the falcon tribe, and when out buggiDg
it is but bungling business compared
with the professional role of the inscctiv-
orous bird. Their angling, too, is simply
upon quiet waters. They cannot brave 1.-The
mutinOus winds twixt the green sea and
the azured vault" In common with all
Rapfores, they catch their prey with the
tslons, not with the besk. In eating
birds the owl prefers to tear his prey in
piecemeal. but q small rodent is swa-
lowed entire, being usually tossed into
the air to adjust its position, 50 that il
may fall head firs into the birds mouth.

Franklin and the Lightning.

The celebrated experiment of Ben
Franklin, by which he demonstrated the
identity of lightning and the common
electric spark, was performed by him in
June, 1859, at Philadelphia, Pa. Having
made q cross-stick kite, he covered it
with asilk handkerchief, instead Of paper,
SO that it would stand rain, attached a
tail, etc. The upper end of the cross had
an iron point, connected by q string to
the usual kite-cord, which was of hemp.
To the lover end of the cord an iron key
vas attached, and to that q short length
Of silk ribboa, - q non conductor, BY
which the kite string could be safely held
in the haod. On the approach Of thun-

Senator Morton has been making char
acteristic speech in Oregon, from which IL
would appear that he still entertains the
same radical notions IN regard to the p0liti-
cal situation he has held for years past. Ia
speech delivered al Salem on the evening
or July 18th, while giving IL as his opinion
that President Hayes could not sustain the
state-house governments in South Carolina
and Louisiana, he contended that the de-
mocracy in those states had broken every
pledge made by them. He claimed that the
fire eating, aggressive class, who gamble
and run horses, dominate men like Hamp-
ton and Nichols and prevent them from pun
fshiDg crimes which in their hearts they
execrate. He was firmly impressed with the
conviction that in case the democrats get
control of the government the south will de-
nand indemnity for loss of property, in
cluding slaves, during the rebellion, and
that they Will demand that all confederate
soldiers be pensioned the same as persons
who served in the Union army. The Senator
may be very far-seeing, but IL will require
more than his simple assertion to make
most people believe that his forebodings are
well-founded. And, by the way, 1t would be
interesting TO know how the Indiana Senator
reconciles his support Of President Grant In
sustaining Governors Packard and Cham
berlain up to the 4th OF March last, and his
endorsement OF President Hayes course in
ousting them soon after the date mentioned.
As Senator and as one OF the members of
the Electoral Commission, he made many
elaborate speeches in support of the claims
OF Packard and Chamberlain. His subse-
quenf action III allowing them TO be deposed
without protest certainly looks a little in
consistent.

General Mcclellan, IL is said, has prepared
an article for publication in a leading maga-
zine demonstrating by means of statistics
that a sum greater than the expense of an
Increased military establishment has been
paid annually for the transportation of men
and military stores. We have no doubt the
proposition is susceptible of proof. The
transportation OF men and stores during the
lnte strikes was an expensive thing for Uncle
sam Computing the expense of transport
alton at two and a half cents per mile,
IL Will be seen that the cost of send
Ing a regiment OF one thousand men
as many miles would cost the govern
ment the sum Of s25 600. 1t is safe to say that
the transportation OF troops from point to
point during the late strikes did not cost the
government less than slOO,coo, and this, per-
haps, is a very small estimate

publishers of newspapers in France labor
under embarrSssments encountered i'm M
other country. A late dispatch from London
brings the Intelligence that eight newspapers
have been suppressed by order OF the govern
ment, and that several have been fined
some for sins OF commission aud some for
sins OF Omission. One OF the latter was the
failure OF a Toulouse journal to print a
speech Of President McMahon. All this
sounds strange to ears American, and leads
one TO believe that there is considerable diff
ference between our own and the French re-
public In the matter OF freedom OF action,
