A Girls Remarkable Dream.

About thirty years ago drover by the
name of Young came down from Wheel
ing, gathering up stock for the Eastern
market. He left Summerteld, a little
hamlet among the hills and started on
the way t" Sarahsville just as darkness
was setting in. He never was heard of
more. His friends in Wheeling did not
expect him home for several weeks. He
was bachelor, and had no near relatives
Something Of a search was male for him
a few weeks after he rode out into the
darkness on his way to Sarahsville, but
in vain. The story Of his disappearance
was told over and over again among the
people of the region, until it passed into
history. Twenty years after the disap-
pearance Of the drover, the daughter OF
a prominent citizen of the county, living
near Sarahsville, had singular dream.
1t seemed to her that she was at famil-
liar point on the main road leading from
her home to Summerfield. 1t was night,
and storm was threatening. The inky
darkness was ever and anon illuminated
by the most vivid flashes of lightning
In some way she was impressed with the
idea that she was expected to watch at =
tentively all that passed before her. She
had not long to wait. Presently, one of
the flashes of light revealed horseman
slowly vending his way up the hill. An
instant later second flash she discovered
man approaching from the rear with
stealthy tread. The next flash revealed
the horseman lying upon the ground, and
the man whom she had before seen ap>
preaching was holding the horse by the
bride and hastily riflipg the dead man.
Becoming more and more interested, she
closely followed the movements of the
robber and murderer. and saw him go to
a familiar stump and carefully deposit
the saddle and the bride and saddle

hollow opening within. just as this work
was finished the murderer seemed to turn
upon her suddenly, and in a flash of light
she recognized the features and form Of
her father. Half dead with fright. she
awoke, and did not close her eyes in sleep
again thai night. Bright and early the
next day she visited the scene of her
dream, and with sharp stick dug in the
decayed rubbish in the interior of the old
stump. She was so thoroughly impressed
with the reality of what she had seen
that she could not fail to do this What
was her surprise on excavating only few
inches beneath the surface to find rusty
styrrup and an old buckle or two. The
Mortified girl kept her terrible suspicion
to herself, but it weighed SO upon her
mind that her constitution was soon
undermined, and at the age of 10 she was
thrown into quick consumption and died.
Before she passed away. however, she
related her dream and suspicion, and re-

Michael Daviti's Speech.

The San Francisco Bulletin of the gath
ult. says: The Grand Opera House was
crowded last night, the farewell address
Of Michael Davitt being the attraction.
He began by speaking OF the sympathy
on this coast for the Irish sufferers. He
said he would 60 back to Ireland and say
there is branch of the National Land
League on the Pacific coast in full SYM
pathy with them, and this will give them
courage to live through the winter. 1t
is the wish of the Irish people to make
the civilized world the arbiters between
them and landlords. The application of
the land laws in England are different
from those in Ireland. The landlords in
England and Scotland live on their estates
and expend money for their improvement,
and share in the expenses The Irish
landlords never make any Improvements
in the property, the tenants do it all.-
The speaker cited an instance in which
the rent of the land had been raised 700
rer cent on account of the improvements
made by tenants. He quoted the opin-
ions of Englishmen and of the English
Press. Lord John Russell wrote that
England had made Ireland the most
wretched country in the world" The
London Times said in an article, "The
Irish landlords re the cut-purses of Ire>
land and the name of Irish landlord has
become q stencil in the nostrils of the
people Of the world"
On the other hand. Lord Annesley, the
owner OF 10000 acres, wrote to Parlia-
ment during the agitation, that as rule,
there is no country where the tenants are
treated with more justice, or have SO
much to be grateful for as in Ireland
The speaker read lease given by Lord
Annesley, in which he reserved all rights
in mines, sand, gravel, timber and streams,
ard exclusive right to all game, wild fowl
and fish thereon. and exclusive right to
said Earl, assigns, etc. to enter upon:
shoot, hunt, sport and course, and to
search for, dig, cut and take away from
said premises, to make or dram water
courses and mill races, and to use all
banks of streams for leaving dredgings
thereon, and to make and close roads at
pleasure through said farm.
During the last famine the landlords
did not give one cent to relief fund to
assist their starving tenants. He told
how widow 81 years of age, with six
children and her sister in-law, were driven
from place she had held tor sixty years,
because she was unable to pay rent for
tive years. They remained in the open
air for eight days and nights, until their
neIghbors put them back in their house.
1t was finally arranged that she should
stay if half the rent was paid, and this
amount was collected 4 tax of one
fourth the value Of sea>weed has been
placed upon it. The people wade out
into the ocean o. gather it.
The speaker next cited a case in which
a man had been evicted from his farm
because his brother, living on another
farm, had not paid his rent of e10, owing
to the expenses Of the illness of his chii>
dren. Exterminate the landlords" is
the cry of our people. Some other in
stances of cruelty were reci!ed. The
, 1880-10-04

marked that some one must he punished
for the horrible ;simc, and she could no
longer live with the belief SO strong upon
her that her father was an unpunished
murderer. Of course. nothing was ever
done in the way of proceedings against
the respectable citizen thus thrown under
cloud OF suspicion by his daughters
dream. There was nothing in the way
Of evidence that could be brought to bear
on the case.-C0rr. ~ Y Times.

o. r. & N. Co. & N. P. r. Coin his
first annual report Mr.. Willard, President
of the Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company, says the line of the Northern
Pacific Railroad twill, by mutual agrees
ment. be extended from the confluence of
the Columbia and Snake rivers to juno
ton at Wallula with the main line" of
the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co.
From other sources the information is
obtained that mutual understandings and
agreements have been entered into be-
tween the two companies, whereby the
Northern Pacific Railroad Co. give up all
idea of building an independent road
down the Columbia; that they will pay
the o. R. and N. Co. an agreed rate per
mile for hauling their cars over the CO.
lumbia division; that the n. P. r. r Co.
are going to push the construction of
their line over the Cascade mountains
via the NatcEess pass; that this road
will leave the main line somewhere in the
vicinity of Ritzville. How much of this

The above was penned by the venera>
BILE Beriah Brown, on his return from
the Kalama Convention which nominated
Mr.. Burke. ''Tis true, It's pity, and

The above extract was put in type be-

which it alluded. The nomination of
MI. Burke was spontaneous, and not the

The tier of States which stretches from
Rhode Island to the Mississippi at St.
Louis contains the controlling States of
the Union in population and IN matter of
commerce, agriculture and finance. Ac-
cofding to the recent census these States
contain twenty millions out of the fifty
millions of our entire population. If,
therefore, Senator Conkling talks about
a solid North he will talk of the States
between Rhode Island and the Mississippi
at St, Louis. How solid " they were
for the Republican party will appear from
their votes for President in 1876 as given
in the official table of the american

HUNTING General Sherman, with his
usual good sense, has caused the follow
ing order to be issued "The attention
Of the Secretary OF War and the General
OF the Army has been called to the prac-
tice, at some Military Posts, of giving
officers leave of absence, for the pur-
pose of hunting. As such absence, be-
yond period Of "a hours. must be
charged as leave of absence, and in this
way tend to discourage hunting, which
in many ways is so advantageous to the
service by tamiliarizing officers and men
with the country, and preparing them
for efficient service, the General of the
Army, with the appoval Of the Secretary
OF War. directs that hereafter, permission
to hunt be not considered leave of alb
sence, or charged as snch, if the officer,
on his return to his station, files with his
commanding officer a certificate that lus
abseAce has been employed in hunting,
and furnishes as complete.a description
of the country passed over as circum-
STAGES will permit"

How FAR PRINTERS HAND TRAyEs.
A Russian statistician has amused him
self calculating the distance Travelled in
a year by the hand OF printer He
takes the principle that a skillful compos-
itor, working ten hours a day, allowing
for di stributlon and correction, sets N
$4,000 letters. In counting the year AZ
300 working days, he makes then total
OF 3,6OO,OOO letters. Consequently tue
distance from the case to the stick gul
from the stick to the case being estim atet
at two feet, making in all 100000 feet,
there being $500 feet in n geograpl cal
mile, SO that the distance made in "a year
under these conditions by printers
hand is in the neighborhood of 300 miles,
or mile a day.

The WI of the People is the title of the
organ of the Nihilists in Russia. 1t APP
pears in the most extraordinary way in
unexpected corners and when least look
ed for. They say it is constantly to be
found on the toilet table of the Emperor
and under the pillows of statesmen and
Generals. The manner in which this
curious organ is printed is described at
length by the st. Petersburg correspond
ent Of the Manchester Guardian The
office is gloomy, miserable room at the
top of house in a poor locality. On
the door is an announcement OF some
fictitious trade. The room is occupied
by poor wretch, formerly, a student; it
is wretchedly Furnished The bed occu-
pies pretty nearly the entire ROOM
Everything is mean and squalid. The
owner of the apartment is editor, COM
positor, reporter, printer and publisher
| Under the mattress of the miserable bed
the type is hidden. Thence, when oc-
casion offers, it is transferred to the
multitudinous pockets of his great coat.
He goes out into the streets with diminu-
tive note book, hangs about public build
incs, glares at people in authority whom
he would kill II glance could murder.
| writes his "leaders' in secluded
corner of park, and rolls each. page
| into a pill to be swallowed on the ap-
proach of policeman. As soon as the
work is finished he steals home, locks
and barricades the door, gets out hif
| type and sets up the paper, which ne

A FARMER in WilliamstOwn, VT, emptied
the brine from some pork barrels at the ioot
of maple tree near his house, some time last
fall. Early in March, with the first run OF
sap, this tree was tapped, and some sugar was
made from the sap. The sugar turned out to
be SO thoroughly impregnated with salt that
it could not be eaten. After the first run
there was less of the salt perceptible, and II
soon lost the flavor of salt entirely.
