Sire! Fire

Mat splang from his bed, and with profess
sional experiences struck light, tumbled into
some clothes and rushed from the house.
No need to ask whence the alarm pro-
ceeded; the fierce pillar of flame and the red
glow in the sky were beacons towards which
he ran at headlong speed, with one thought
IN his mind, II pray heaven it may not be
the rectoryp'
"Where is it?' he shouted, to two labor
ers. tagging along as swiftly as heavy boots
and ponderous habits of progression would
let them.
'Farmer Joyce's, sur"
"Farmer Joyce's! Thank heayenI The
next house to the rectory, but not near
enough to endanger itp
Mats suspense gave place to thrill of al.
most pleasurable excitement; it was his
mad young blood" asserting ITSELF Dash
Ing through gateway, he almost ran over a
girl, bare-headed, wriDging her hands in
impotent anxiety. 1t was Miss Bellue.
"Go back at once" commanded Mat,
CURLY. "Put on hat, and the thickest
shawl you have"
The panic-stricken girl obeyed. Not till
afterwards did 1t occur to her he had no right
to issue such instructions.
When she returned it was to find Matthew
Curtis, esq.,, M. D., in the centre of burn
Ing pig-stye, pitching out squeaking, half
ASootOu POhhNio.
'Just my luck!' he Sgrumbled, examining
his scorched fingers. "If they had been
babies, now, might have gained some credit
at the same risk"
s'rhe stable is a-ire, surp
''WhatP' shouted Mat. He did not wait
for the information to be repeated, An ar
dent lover of horsefesh, it was an appeal tn
his sympathies that sent him round interyen-
ing out-buildings in state of breathless snz
pense.
1t was true. The stable was on fire; the
horses we're screaming with terror; two or
three rustics were making excited and fruit
less attempts to drag them out-at-
tempts the poor animals resisted with all
their might. A little crowd of men looked
on idly and despairingly.
"Jim, run into the barn and get three or
four empty sacks and rope. Quickv'
"Yes, SIR"
By drawing sack over each animals head
and neck, thus blindfolding it; by passing
rope round the forelegs and setting strong
arms to haul, and by little organization Of
brave but until then i'll applied efforts, res
cue was effected. All the horses were saved
except one poor brute smoothered by the
smoke.

beautiful river, and the blue sky, are
The only things which look in the least as
they must have done to the original in
habitants. The island, now owned by
gentleman of Parkersburg, is rented
to tenant who is apparently fond Of
cabbages; for not only did oceans Of
cabbages roll their billowy heads as far
as the eye could reach, but the little
house, standing just where the mansion
formerly stretched its hospltable arms
was redolent of the same vulgar yege-,
table. The only remains are the
foundations Of the house, barely
traceable; the old well, unusually large
and still in use; two large apple trees,
said to have been planted by Mr..
Blennerhassett; and the caps to the
stone gateway, now used as steps to the
humble house. The upper part of the
island is strewn deem by the frequent
high waters with driftwood and decay

some certain direction. Notwithstand
ing the veterinary profession has for
years past been urging upon the govern
ment at Washington the necessity for
taking such steps, it finds us to-day to-
tally unprepared to meet the exigencies
Of the occasion. The past shows if
right measures are adopted the malady
may be readily controlled. During the
outbreak in Boston in 1857 the state
legislature took it in hand, comforting
power upon commissioners TO destroy
all affected animals, those destroyed to
be paid for out of the state treasury,
which soon brought the disease under
control, where it has been kept ever
since. The British government has
nothing to fear from pleuro-pneumonia
in this country if ours will but meet it
half way and do its duty.-The 1,.rf,
