A correspondent has sent us q story
from Chambers's Journal. June %, 1874.
1t Is story of the time when lucifer
matches were introduced-of the time,
too, when body-snatching inspired dread
full fears In the popular mind. The mar
rative, therefore, may not be without in
teiest at the present day.
An extraordinary event happened in
the burgh. nothing less than the intro
duction of lucifer matches. You must
know that Provost Dickson was very
funny man. always contriving some play
or Joke to get laugh among his
companions, and turning mostly all
sorts OF things into ridicule. so that the
town was never well out Of one piece of
waggery of his till 1t was into another.
The provost had been In Edinburgh one
market day. and had seen the things
called instantaneous lights or lucifer
matches, at the Inn where he put up.
dare say II must have been fifteen
years since; so you see It's not q story
OF yesterday that I'm going to tell you.
Well, the provost was uncommon taken
up with the lucifers. which he thought
the grandest thing he had ever seen,
Keeping OF gas and steam; a great i'm

but great was his alarm when he found

knew that he had been left by accident
and was the only living being there

in the theatre, and frightened him more.
He listened for noises in the square. but
not a footstep vas to be leard. He
then went back to the theatre and sat
down for while, trying all he could
TO avoid seeing the fearsome things.
Long he sat there. half-stupefied with
terror. yet aye thinking that surely the
doctor would remember him, and that he
would next minute hear "a footstep or
see a light coming TO his dellverance''-

an authoritative voice. cried:

Which Sanders did. not knowing what
to think OF II,
"Rr-h-h-t! Fun" played something
in the provost's hands, and Immediately
We saw small but waxing light blue
at first, and bright afterwards, and then
We were all sensible OF a great smell OF
birthstone. And 10! in three seconds
the provost had the candle lighted
again.
"Aih. mercy on u.s. cried Sanders in
a desperate tone OF voice. What's that?

cordingly, by 8 o'clock that night we
were most OF us gathered round Sand

six gave US all the light We required.
When Sanders brought in the jug and
glasses the provost asked him how he
did, and requested that he would come
In and sit down while. which he
blithely consented to. and In Ave min

coat on and a clean washed face. and
his hair new combed.
