;. "A LONG HoRsEBA CK RIDE. Captain Salvi
saws the London Sportsman, October ID.
has successfully accomplished the feat OF
riding from Bergamo, in Lonbardy, to
Naples, a distance OF 900 kilometres, Oh
about $50 English miles, In ten days, on
Leda, Sandman mare, the property OF an
Italian cavalry officer. The mare is Sardi-
MAN born and bred, but her grandsire was
a pure Arab. She stands.a little over. 14t
hands, and is said to be about seven years
old, gray, with an Arab forehead, and very
plain headquarters. The last stage from
Caserta to Naples was ridden not without
the greatest difficulty, the gallant little mare
being distressed beyond measure. On
arriving within the precincts OF the city,
with half an hour to spare, she was unable
to move an inch farther and could not pro-
coed to the cavalry barracks, as had been
arranged. She had to be put up at the near
est stable, where she lay down, dead beat,
trembling all over and refusing food and
water. Thanks, however, to the care be-
slowed upon her, she was comparatively
all right again the following day. Captain
Salvi started from Bergamo on the 25d ulti-
mo at 10 A. NJ, and arrived at Naples on the
Sd instant at haIf-past A. NJ. Previous to
starting he made bet Of 5000 francs to do
the distance in ten days.

married to q young woman OF Alsatian ORR
gin. just when the marriage party were
sitting down at table the bride left the room

guests. shook hands with him. Petrol, see
| ing this, and actuated by an ineyplcable
feeling OF jealousy, rushed upon the guest
and struck him heavy blow with stick
on the head. The young woman, terribly
| frightened, sought refuge in an adjoining
room, whittier she was followed by her hns-
band in a state OF fury, who there stabbed
her with knife in the breast no less than
six times, and then, availing himself OF the
general terror OF all the persons who had
witnessed the horrible scene, he ran down
into the stables below and blew out his
brains with pistol"
