centration Of the 200 men tia. lay hidden
in the immediate nelghbefhood among
the woods; and before quarter of an
hour had passed, all his dispositions
being taken, he put himself at their head,
snd began to move down the hill towards
Shorety.
His plan was simple. He was to seize
8 quarter Of the town Of Saoreby lying on
the rght hand CT the high road, and
make his position good there in the mar
row lanes until his achievements fol-
lowed.
II Lord R;siDghsn chose to retreat.
Richard would follow upon his rear, and
take him between two fres; or, IL he
preferred to hold the town, he would be
shut in 8 trap, there 70 be gradually
overwhelmed By force OF numbers.
There was but one danger, but that was
imminent and grest-Gloucester's 700
might be rolled up and cut to pieces In
the first encounter, and, to avoid this,
1t wss needful to make the surprise Of
their arrival as complete as possible.
The footmen, therefore, were all once
more taken up behind the riders, and
Dick had the signal honour melted out to.

self. For as far as there was any cover
the troops moved slowly, and when they
came near the end OF the trees that lined
the highway, stopped to breathe and re-
connoitre.

tones-"let me see clean end Of these

There were but Eve survivors Of the

adjusted; an archer, carrying the end oil

word passing upon either hand, the five
men were swinging by the neck.
"And now" cried the deformed leader,
"osck to your; posts, and when I summon

"My lord duke" said one man, "be

the widows cheeks when Mr.. Finn arrived
with q chicken, which caused a very lively
dispute among the O'Houlahan children as
10 who should have tho wish bone. At short
intervals during tho day. cabbages, potatoes,
coal, pieces Of corned beef and various other
contributions were poured in upon the widow
in such numbers and in such variety that her
room resembled well supplied grocery

with unwontcd heat. The vicious March
wind found its way in the crack under the
door, but thcrc was only enough Of IL TO give
the room healthy temperature. Comment

ST. PATRICK'S DAY IN AUSTRALIA.
Americans, it does not interfere with their
first love; in Australia they are tho most
active workers for the colony, and have given
many eminent men to tho public service,
yet are Irishmen still; and so in Canada,
India and all lands where they may settle or
travel. Let them be where they may, tho
18th Of March is a day that unites their
hearts, and wherever there are Irishmen
enough to form marching squad the day is
celebrated.
In Winnipeg, Man, the Irish have turned
out when tho mercury YVES coauetting around
30 degs. below zero, and in Havana, as ono
amusing writer tells us, they have marched
with a uniform Of palm leaf hat and heavy
fan; in Australia, where they form as large
percentage of tho population as in any part
of the United States, they mako tho day
specially hilarious; while in the British army,
wherever detachment with Irish soldiers in
II is stationed, the day is made holiday
The green ribbons and ties, the flag with the
harp and tho sunburst, are universal, Of
course; but, aside from these, each place and
cline has its local variations, and certainly q
most amusing volume could bo compiled
illustrating the many methods Of celebrating.
In Australia, kangaroo run-a captive
turned loose for tho purpose-or hunt for
tho wild dog, or grand sham battle, may
diversity the day; in Ireland there is a dance
and parade, and sometimes, it must be con-
fesscd, a battle that is not all ''sham,n for
they have their little differences over there.
and when tho "potheen" is in and tho wit out
they often reopen the Judgment and try tho
old case over again. "When shillalahs arc
flying and heads cracking" says Father Tom
Burke, "it is not in the Iyishman's nature to
see his friends pushed without coming to the
