A Suggestive Legend.

There is terrible legend of Grim
Tartary concerning very massive and
imposing editice, which is also very an.
cient. 1t is so vast and imprek ave that
travellers are profoundly affected, espec.
tally those who come from countries
whero certain number of persons are
annually destroyed by burning theaters
and falling buildings. One such travel
er was gazing with admiration upon the
edifice, in company with his majesty,
the king of the country, and he could
not restrain himself from saying:
80 king, what is the secret of the
wonderful strength of this building, that
it has neither tumbled down nor been
burned up"
But his majesty, the king of the coun-
try was coy, and forebore to answer.
Being pressed more closely, however, at
length he answered:
40 stranger, its strength is secret OF
the state"
The stranger was not dismayed, and,
after much entreaty, his pertinacity over
came the reluctance of the king, who
finally said with solemnity:
go stranger, when my ancestor began
to build this temple it was laid upon in
secure foundations. Thereupon he sent
for another builder, and said to him:
The present cornerstone will be raised,
and the present builder placed under ii
alive, and upon the stone laid upon the
body you will proceed to erect the wall.
Should it be weak or insufficient it will
be taken down; the cornerstone again
raised, you will be placed under it alive,
the stone will be again laid, and the
building proceed once more My an
cestor said nothing further; and you now
know, o stranger, the secret Of these
massive walls, and why this building
does not tumble down.
The stranger, says the Grim Tartar
legend, went his way much meditating
the marvellous government which was
able to prevent filnsy building -Har-

are not enough to form body-guar.ls for all
the obnoxious landlords. agents, bni!itfs,

pushed with yisor and determination, and

one etfect-that of rendering the leaders

THIS Dulcigno business has been one OF
the most interesting international affairs Of
ali time. The announcement Of its surren-

were only announced to have been stlc@ess-
full when the announcement was c'nphatcal
~ denied; the Sultan has promised to ceae
it only to break his promise; the demands of
the Ambassadors have been just about being
complied with when there was 4 sudden
hitch somewhere; the combined fleets Of,
Europe were about to open fire on it whena
there came word from the various Ministers
to wait awhile; and even the cable tie!ld had

shocking occurrence is stated in dispatch
from GAINESVILLE to the Louisville Courter-Joarnal
of the 9Th, as follows: Considerable excitement
was caused yesterday by the Judgment in Jail of
Dan Lyle (colored), his wife and a negro woman
named Susan Talley 1t seems that Ly lie and his
wife have recently become perfect monomaniacs
upon religious subjects. He has asserted that he
was the Saviour, his wife the Virgin Mary, and
Susan Talley who lives with them prophecies
In his zeal be has on divers occasions appeared
at places of worship, both for white and black
people, and insisted on playing his part as
preacher. Yesterday cOnsabes Romlly and
Saunders procured warrant for his arrest upon
the charge OF disturbing public worship, and
went to his house TO execute the same Lyle re-
sisted furiously and assaulted Constable Saunders
with axe Constable Romily fired three shots
at Lyle one of which took effect in his right
breast and the other two in the groin. Lyle then
returned to his house and barricaded the win
dows and DOORS but he surrendered when Sheriff
Mosely appeared with an lditional posse. Upon
entering the house the officers smeed putrd
flesh, and, on making search, found two of Lyle's
children, aged respectively three and five years
dead, with their necks broken. The impression
is that the murder was instgated by Lye's wife
and Susan Talley, who have both welded strong
influence over Lyle, and that he did the killing
to relieve the women Of the care of the children
believing that for the occasion he was Herod.-
Lyle's wounds are very painful but are not con-
sidered mortal"

A few years ego. about two miles est Of Tai
lahaasee, was 6und pOnderuas spur of unique
and curiousw ptkmAnship, the like of which has
not been seen>fn modern times. The burr was
one and half inches in diameter and the bar
proportionally heavy; On either side Of the

forth tinkling sound in response to each step
Of the wearer-doubtless some steel-clad and
bonneted warrior of the long ago.
Not many days since, while parties were plow-
ing near the identical SPOT, solid and shapeless
mass was turned up, which, upon closer exAmin-
alton, proved to be an iron stirrup of ancient
pattern, as heavy and as massive in proportion
q the spur spoken of first, and firmly imbeded
in thick coating Of clay and rust. When this
was removed the siirEup was found TO be in
remarkably good state of preservation. The
sides represent two Ethiopian figures standing
upon the footrest, leaning forward facing each
other, while they support with outstretched
arms what forms the top of the stirIup or that
part which is connected with the leather
So unlike are both these relics to anything
known to the generations of this day and time,
and both being found 30 near the same place, it
is not unreasonable to ascribe them to the same
era and individual. Nor is the superstition at
all improbable that one of the knghty follow
ers of DeSoto, lured en- through this then un-
known region and wilderness, like that daunt-
less son of SPAIN by thirst for the yellow
heaps of cleaning gold that loomed up ahead
of them in vain visions and heated fancies, here
fell victim to the tomahawk and scalping knife
of the wronged and revengful red man and, no
doubt, some one OF the Tallahassee Tribe" of
which Tiger Tail claimed to be descendant,
boosted, as he displayed at his belt yet bloody
scalp, that he had killed pale face"
The spur, it is regretted, has been misplaced,
but the stirrup can be seen at the drug store of
Mr.. A. E. Philips.
