fate, he might have begun to live a new life, frightened with charities and bet ter purposes. He might have 'redeemed the timc," if time had been granted him. But it would be all over soon.
 He had sunk down upon the floor, and lay there, helpless and scarcely conscious, when a loud voice suddenly made it's way to his dulled ears. Then there was great crashing of glass, and figure leaped into the room.
 Out of the burning room into the windy night and the clear starlight he was carried by firm arms. There was just enough intelligence left in him to make him cling to his deliverer, and vaguely comprehend that he must hold fast while they went down a lad der. Somehow the descent was accom- plished in safety, and then Michael found himself on heap of straw in the farmyard, and heard a great clamor and shouting around him.
 The clamor ceased; he saw and heard nothing more till he woke at length from long spell of inconsistencies. He was no longer in that ill-omcned room with the vaulted roof, but in a homely chamber of larger size, with a low ceiling. Some one had been bath ing his face, and when he tried to lift his hand to his head he found that the trembling fingers were too feeble to be of any use. An elderly woman came gently to the bedside and spoke in a kindly tone that he seemed to remem- Der.

comfortable meal awaited the hungry lad, whose home larder was too often empty. A few weeks ago he would have been ashamed of these humble recollections, but illness and weariness had surely made him more tender hearted, and again he felt a pang. Af- ter all it would have been well if he had kept Aaron at the works and spared few minutes sometimes to talk of old days. But no; it was best that Aaron should be sent away. It would have been impossible to retain the old friendship and give up the old love.
 He had chosen the short cut to for tune, and it had led him through mire and thorns, as short cuts generally do. As for Olive, he would not think of her this evening. His head was too tired to bear this load of memories. The past was gone. He would do something for Ann Crakc, and look up some of the poorest villagers before he left the place, but Hover and friend" must be put far from him for ever.
 The clear evening sky smiled over head, the little Neon gurgled along un- der the very walls of the old inn, there was the same moss-grown bridge, with small ferns feathering out of the brick work, and man and girl were stand ing together, looking down into the swift water. They raised their heads as Michael and the farmer approached,
 The girl gazed at Michael for a sec ond or two, then started, and turned sharply away with flushed cheeks. The

DENVER. Gel. Jan. 9.-The Graves trial and it's subsequent developments are still the all absorbing topic here. Two well known men who were summoned as jurors in the trial have made affidavits that they were not called to act because they would not promise to return 8 yer dict of guilty if selected as jurors. Judge Furnam, counsel for Dr. Graves, has raised the question whether a convicted person must be sentenced during the term of court at which he is found guilty, and has asked for a postponement of sentence for thirty days.

PRICES STEADY.

affairs in Wall street," says Henry
Clews, remain about stationary.
Transactions are confined manly to
the industrial stocks and to those of
the Reading, st. Paul, New England
and Northern Pacific railroads, while
the general list is neglected. The
bull operations in certain industrials
have indirectly Helped to support the
dormxnt railroad stocks, and prices
therefore are generally kept steady;
but there is feeling, in some quarters,
than when the movement in the fore
mentioned specialtIes Is elackened, the
now neglected stocks may also suffer.
1t is doubtful. however, whether this
view takes sufficient account of the ell
ements of unusual strength underly-
ing the railroad list, which have not
yet had adequate expression in an ad-
vance IN their prices. The holders of
railroad stocks are generally men of
large means, who know what the roads
are doing and appreciate the immense
business that is IN prospect for them
during the next twelve months; and,
although they may not deem the pres
emit moment tho most opportune for an
active speculation in their respective
specialties, they would not be likely to
sit quietly by while the bears trifled
with their interests. The Unexpectedly
large increase In last weeks surplus Of
the banks Is taken as indicating that
the outflow of currency to the interior
has reached It's climax. and that the
shipments to the south, soon to be
forthcoming. are likely to be provided
for by = reflux of money from the
west. The reserves Of the city banks.
however, are in low condition-much
below what they were year ago and
lower than has been expected-snd
while no real stringency IA feared yet
firm rates for money are expected for
the remainder Of the year"

With tonIght's meeting in Hartman's

the newspapers and the excitements
and passions Of former campaigns have
been superseded by intelligent Discus

charge for the mastery will be made.
True 10 is pledges that this would be

can party has adhered strictly TO the
tariff aud urged that the protective
policy il better calculated to secure
prosperity to ths people than free

the subject, describing Just the right
