Olose Shots.

Ono or two oases Of very narrow es-
capes from death by bullets occur to
ME. Says an old soldier. During
the Kafir war, ] several. times accom-
panied large parties Of troops sent out
to intercept or pursue bodies OF tho ene-
my, or to destroy kraals or capture cat
tle. We never succeeded in intercept
lug or overtaking Kafrs unless they
we're IN strong parties and desired to
fight; and as we marched along by day
the Katirs, in loose order and in parties
OF two or three, would hang on
our tanks and rear, showing them
selves on the high ground, but
keeping out Of range Of our muskets.
One night four of us were sitting CROSS
logged round little fire, on which we
had put our cof'ee-kettle to boil, and,
as we,thus sat, report, followed by the
ring Of a,bullet close over our heads.
warned us that Kafirs were prowling
about. This was followed by several
other shots which struck the ground
quito close to lis; but we were tired and
cold and hungry, having had no food all
day and we wore unwilling to lie down
to aleep on the bare ground with empty
stomachs. We therefore determined,
in spite of danger, to keep the fire burn
ing until the coffee was ready; and to
hurry this, ono of lis stopped down to
blow the fire with his mouth, when
another shot settled the matter, for O
bullet passing between us smashed the
kettle and scattered the embcrs about
the head of the one who was blowing
the fire. How close the bullet passed
to his head may bo imagined, for it
touched his hair. There was nothing
to be done but to stamp all tho embers
out roll ourselves in our oloaks and light
our pipes to keep down the cravings of
hunger. At the relief of the residency
OF Lucknow the Colonel of my regiment
had two very narrow escapes. AS he
was oantering from one position to
another, the motion of the horse raised
him little out Of the saddle every now
and then, and just at the moment when
he was raised out Of the saddle bullet
passed below Linn, tearing the leather
open along the whole seat of the saddle.
Had he been sitting still in the saddle
he would have been horribly wounded.

Remarkable Deal in Whist.

Probably the most remarkable deal
in whist that was ever made occurred at
q Cincinnati club the other day. After
the first hand had been played Mr..
Webster, whose turn it was to deal.
took the cards, shuhled them, and, after
they had been out by Mr.. Kiersted,
dealt. Eaoh player as he arranged his
cards appeared to be Iabomng under
some unusual excitement. Mr.. Oulbert-
son, whose turn it was to play, and who
generally in very prompt in placing his
card on the table, delayed tho play un-
til Mr.. Starbuok broke tho ominous
silence which prevailed by exclaiming.
Gentleman, havs the most remarka-
ble whist hand I ever held. L hold

Mr.. Culbertson, "hold equally as re-
markable hand. I have thirteen

An OrntOr,d Power.

1t was in the Clay campaign Of 1874.
An immense audience, Is, 900 or &c, 900,
had assembled to hear Preston. A
large stage had been erected, which was
crowded with prominent persons, and
the multitude was packed around it.
There was the usual buzz and confusion
incident to sucli occasions, until aftet
Preston had been speaking a few mo-
ments. when it began to subside and
soon there was Il dead silence, except
the music of that wonderful voice, He
was in fine condition for his work and
went at it IN his best style. The silence
seemed to intens ify as tho tide of his
eloquence poured over the dense mass
Of enchanted listeners. With the swell
OF his sonorous voice the audience
seemed to rise on tiptoo and to sink
back again with it's ebbing cadenccs :;
and again they swayod with the sweep
of his arm like wheat field to the
breeze. At length, in a magnificent
burst of inspiration-.w his long arm
raised high, his eyes flashing and the
multitude hanging breathlessIy to his
words he seized the brown wig which
he wore, held it up over his shining
bald head, and, still soaring in his spIen-
did flight, replaced y oross-wise and
scared on and there was not, in that
vast audience, the least ripple of laugh
ter at this most ridiculous performance,
but, on the contrary, no one seemed to
notice it, 80 completely entranced was
every listener.

Rear Admiral George 81. Preble, of
the United States navy, gives some
interesting facts concerning tho loss of
life and property in Atlantic passenger

whole number of vessels lost in those
forty yea1s was IA, or ali average of

1t is generally believed that the Cum
ard Line has never lost ship nor the
life of passenger. This report shows
that that line has lost two vessels-the
Columbia, in 1849, and the Tripoli,
in 1879. In the first accident one life
was lost; none in the second. The In
mans loss lis given at vessels: tho

Gonerale Transatlantique, 5; White Star,

Company, 1; Antwerp Line, 1; and

sells lost are said to have been wrecked
close to the shore. 'Twenty-four are
reported missing; 10 were burned atsea:
8 we're sunk by collisions and stress Of

A long Disappearanee.

A"oAtJ -boFeu years BBO WATSON S.
Worstall, a lad Of II years, mysterlously
disappeared from his home in Buchanan
vile, Bucks county, Pa. Every effort
was made to discover what had befallen
him. After the lapse Of more than a
quarter OF century every expectation
of solving the mystery had been given
up, and the old father, having almost
reached our-soore-and-ten years, had
abandoned long-cherished hope of
seeing ''his boy" again. On Thanks-
giving day, just before the big turkey
had been brought on thei' ble;in Lewis
Worstall's house, at B,ss!amanville,, a
man with. heavy VIII hisbers, looking ito
be over 40 years of age, with broad
shoulders and a hearty manner, walked
into the sitting-room where old Hugh
Worstall sat by the blazing logs, and
looked ourlously first at the old man
and then at tall man who stood on
the other side Of the room-Lewis
Warstall. "MyI' exclaimed Mrs.
Worstall, II thought it was Warner
referring to her husbands brother, who
lives at Doylestown.
"No," said the stranger quietly, "it
is Warmers brother, Watson"
1t was indeed true. After twenty
seven years the missing brother had
come back to his native place. He
had lived for many years within
days ride of his old home, but did not
know until he came to Buckmanyille
whether his father or any of his broth
ers were aliye. During all the search
for him, and the excitement consequent
upon the mystery which surrounded
him, he was living quietly ten miles
from Buckmanville.
Watson had been good-natured
rollioking lad, full of fun and pranks
and fond of freedom, and objected to
learning trade. as his father had
Determined he should. He made I'D
his mind one day to quietly "drop out"
and. imagining that hue-and-c cry
would be made abroad, he shrewdly
won't only few miles from home, near
the little village of Willow Grove, and
hired himself to farmer. He had
firmly determined never to communi-
cate with his family nor return to his
home.
For three years he worked on the
farm ct Willow Grove. Having here
accumulated little money he camo to
PI,il~ ~ae'sl,i. ",R -a,rE ned in Tho
city for two years. Then, taking
Horace Greely's advice, he went West,
but i'll very short time he returned
and went to Annapolis, Md. where he
married, and subsequently settled down
in Alexandria, Va.
Watson served four years in tho
war i'll the Third United States Infantry,
and was seriously wounded ut Chancel-
lorsville. After the war he was in
business in Maine for six years. He is
now u car-builder in Manchester.
Ocean county, N. j., where he resides
with his wife and two children. Inst
summer he spent some months in Vine
land, N. j., within few miles of the
place where one OF his brothers (Owen)
lives; but neither Sc ncc heard ot tho
other. ... ..
Another curious circumstance Is that,
although he had for years lived 80 near
his old home, Watson never in the en-
tire twenty-seven years saw al old no.
quaintance nor any one he knew from
Bucks connty. Not one momber OF
his immedi Cd to family, which was a
large one. had died during his absence.

there are a great many fine prospects

it will become a f1ourishing mining dis

of which are bonded. MI. Cum

price too low and SO the matter ended.
He made no investments although there
are several leads there he would like to
own if they could be purchased at what
