English and Indian Regiments Join in
 Military and Athletic Sports.
 A great deal of interest was mani fested in Bombay, recently, in the naval and military tournament. Encouraged by the success which attended similar programme previously given, Gen. Gatacre and the committee decided to add many new features, with the result that crowds assembled on each day to witness the various contests Tickets were resold at premium, and even trees overlooking the oval were thronged with sightseers. The second evening, says a foreign exchange, the tournament was attended by the gov crnor general, Lord Harris, who, as a famous athlete, enjoyed the capital sport provided. Little Miss Bracl1en- bury, attired in the royal artillery uni form and escorted by troops, rode up to his excellency and presented him with programme. Immediately afterward a bugle sounded, and the military tattoo commenced. All the tunes were Scotch, the pipers of the Royal Scots regiment opening the proceedings. Five hundred men next marched in line, carrying colored lanterns, while twenty military bands concluded the music with a splendid rendering of the ''Old Hundredth." Driving by the royal artil- lery, and exhibition of skill with Indian clubs by two native regiments, tent begging, trick-riding, and gun drill by men of the royal navy were warmly ap- preciated by the multitude. The Par sec volunteers from Peona were espe- cially popular

try, and yoemanry of the country were
represented among the spectators that
filled to suffocation that courtroom.
In m part of the hall, to the right
of the bench, were assembled the whole
family from the Anchorage; for no,
only the Admiral, Sir Ira Brunton, his
nephew, the young lieutenant, his
granddaughter, Amelia, his guest. the
italian princess, but even his ances.
%tresses, the two ancient danes, were
present, drawn thither by the intense
interest Of the approaching trial.
In the very deepest shadow of q
corner behind this group stood apart
a tall man, whose form was enveloped
in a long, dark cloak, and whose face
was shaded by a deep sombrero hat.
AT sons little distance, sulky, silent
and alone, stood Norham Montrose.
n all there were SO closely pressed
in by the crowd, that they could
neither move, converse, nor scarcely
breathe. The whole assembly seemed
so intensely anxious for the mmence
ment OF he trial, that they hardly once
removed their eyes from the door by
which he prisoner was expected to
be brought into court. At half-past
lime the judges appeared.
As soon as the Lord Chief Baron
Elverton and the associate judges took
their seats. the eyes of the whole as
sembly We're directed towards the
bench.
Indeed, the central figure there, the
presiding judge. Lord Chief Baron FL
verton, was, by his imposing pres
cnce, no less than his august office and
Lis mysterious family history, calcu-

He was now but sixty years of age,
though looking seventy-fiye or eighty.
His once large, massive, and erect
form was now bowed. shrunken and
cmaciated: his fine, high, noble fea-
lures We're faded. sunken, and sharp
ened; his once luxuriant auburn hair
and beard were now thin and white
as snow; his c~ountenance, though ex-
pressive Of intellectual pride and
conscious power, was impressed with
the ineffacable marks of deep suffering
modified by patient b~enignity.
But what was the nature of that suf-
fering? Was it inconsolable sorrow for
some heavy misfortune earth could
never repair? Or was it inextinguish-
able remorse for some deep sin that
heaven could not pardon?
No n eve knew or even surmised.
But, as the spectators looked upon the
care-worn face, they spoke together in
whispers of that strange. terrible. UNI
explained episode in his family his
tory; the sudden, fearful midnight
fight of his son.: the total estrange-
ment between himself and his daugh-
ter-in-law, and the rigid ~seclusion of
his young granddaughter; and, for the
hundredth time, wondered whatever
could be at the bottom of those mys-
teries. For the moment, even the i'm
pending trial was forgotten in this dis
cussion Of the family secrets of Lord
Elyerton.
But the attention of the assembly
was soon recalled to it's first subject.
The prisoner was ordered to be
brought into court.
And once more every eye was turned

and fixed in unwinking vigilance upon
the door by which she was expected
to enter.
And all this eager curiosity in the
crowd was only TO see one poor fright
%rembling girl brought up to trial
for life or death.
They had not long to wait for their
spectacle.
The doors were thrown open and the
young prisoner was led in between the

who advanced with trembling ard
downcast eyes.
Behind her walked Malcolm Mon
trose, whose haggard countenance be-
trayed the agony of anxiety he suf.
fered on her account.
She was led up the length Of the hall
and let into the dock. where a seat had
been placed for her by some kind
band.
AT Il sign from the sheriff the ward
ress entered and took a place by her
side.
Malcolm Montrose posted himself as
near the dock as he could possibly get.
As Eudora dropped into her seat her
head sank upon her breast, her hands
fell upon her lap and her whole form
collapsed and shrank beneath the OPP
pressive gaze OF that large assembly.
Yet, IL the poor girl could have look
cd up she would have q more than
one pair OF eyes regarding her with an
expression kinder than me,e curiosity:
even those Of the venerable Judge were
bent upon her in deep compassion.
But she dared not lift her head.

heat Of the sun draws from the earth
the most noxious plants, and develops
in man and brute the most ferocious
passions-the land of the upas and

"But enough he concluded. He
would not deal in ~invective, or seek
to exaggerate that guilt which no
words of the prosecutor could magni-
fly. He had stated the facts OF the
case; he would now proceed to call
witnesses to prove them.
This severe opening charge was felt
by all to be no more official denuncia-
ton by the prosecutor, but n aW-
full truth as he himself believed it
TO be, and finally succeeded in caus-
ing judge, jury, and audiance to ac-

Its effect upon the poor young pris-
oner was overwhelming. She dropped
still lower, and breathed from the
depths of her wounded spirit

historical matter. Its value may be es-
timated when IL is stated that IL con-
tains q record of the war of revenge
conducted by the Babylonians and
their Mandian allies against Assyria,
for the destruction of the city by Sen

the election and coronation OF Naboni-
dus in Il. c. SOS. and the wonderful
dream in which Nebuchadnezzar APP
peared to him, as well as an account OF
the restoration of the Temple of the

able reference to the murder of SEN

with the material with which to study
the dawn OF civilization in Chaldea,
there has always been a desire that we
should obtain some inscribed records,
possibly historical inscriptions of the
period of the new Babylonian empire
Oh. c. 606-53S). especially of the reigns
of NebuchadneZZar II. and Nabonidus.
With the exception of the Babylonian
chronicle OF the reign Of the latter
monarch and a few historical notices in
his cylinder inscriptions. we have but
little indication OF the existence OF his
torical records. A discovery of the
greatest Importance has just been
made by Father Scheil, who has for
some time been exploring in Babylonia

TO enter into the midst of the city of

time he returned, as the inscription
says. THE king OF Assyria, who, by
the power OF Merodach the overthrow

sword thrust him through" The re-
turn of the statue of the god to its

Babylonians. The murder of Sennach-
crib seems to have caused great salts

also i'm the Babylonian chronicle. The
second column contains an account OF
the terrible revenge eXacted by the
Babylonians some years after, when,
assisted by the king Of the Urmanda,

ravaged the whole of the south Of
Assyria. II is remarked how biblical is
the phraseology Of this passage: He

unfortunate that the name OF the

probably Nebupalassar. This seems
confirmed by a statement in another
portion of the inscription, where we are
told that 81 years prior TO the COM
mencement of the reign of Nabonidus,
in y. c. 555. the Urmanda, or Barba-
rians. had destroyed the Temple of the
Moon God at Harran; that would be,
therefore. i'm y. c. coz. There is no ref
erence to Nineveh. the campaign being
confined to Assur and South Assyria,
and IL seems evident that this inscrip-
ton does not describe the destruction
of Nineveh.

the death of the antislavery movement,
and the defeat cf silver candidate in
1896 will not indicate that the fight is
