Bullets Point 20 Point.

A correspondent relates the following
remarkable personal "Reminiscences of an
incident which occurred during the
Franco-German war: "a perfect stran.
ger tan Englishman), said he, ''called
upon me and handed to me ohassepot
rife, which he related he had picked
up Oh the field of battle after Gravelotte,
which had bullet or two stuck in
about the middle Of the barrel aud
which he requested me to get removed.
This was done. and upon examination
two bullets were found to have met
point to point. \ German bullet must
have entered the nuzz1e Of the French
rife barrel just as the French rifle had
been fired, and the two bullets had met
together without bursting the barrel. I

Wilkes, Buttons.

Wilkes had the courage which does
not always accompany a sarcastic
tongue, for he fought two duels and
was nearly killed in one of them, and
when challenged on third occasion he
behaved himself, on the authority of
Croker, who was certainly no admirer of
his, like man of temper and honor. J"
His most serious encounter was with
Mr.. Martin, and Wilkes was only saved
by two buttons diverting the bullet.
One CT his admirers procured these pre-
cious relics and put them in a case with
the following inscription, ''These two
simple yet invaluable buttons under
Providence, preserved the life of my be-
Lowell and honest friend John Wilkes in
duel fought with Mr.. Martin on the
10th Of November, 1868, when true
courage ard humanity distinguished
him in a manner scarcely known in for
mer ages.
His invincible bravery, as we'll in the
field as in the glorious assertion of the
liberty of the subject, will deliver him
down an unparalleled example of pub
lie virtue to all future generations. ,"
Wilkes would probably have said to
this, as the Duke of Wellington to the
obsequious gentleman who escorted him
across Piccadilly, "Don't be ID
fool, sirl"-Gornhill Magazine.

except on such unhappy occasions as
when he came Unexpectedly across some
one who had liked in Mars or fished in

excuse, which deserves to be preserved.

THORNlON'S DEATH.
More Testimony Taken by Coroner
Phillips.
Theory as 10 How the Fracture of the
Skull Was Sustained.

Coroner Phillips of Johnston, yester-
day afternoon took some more testi-
mony i'm the Thornton case, and Judge
Richard Lyman OF the Providence po-
lice court. appeared TO testify. He was
sworn and testified that Thornton APP
peared before him with a bruised. red
and blotchy face: that the man walked
TO the bar and back unaided. and made
his admission of guilt without any hes
itation. The witness said that he OBJ
served nothing I'm the mans manner or
speech at that time which would indi-
cate an injured condition.
There is a theory to the effect that
Thornton received the fracture of his
skull by striking against the curb
stone while being assisted into the
wagon. The attempt To get Thornton
into the wagon failed. and the man fell
striking his head against the curbing.
This occurred after the alteration
with Waterman, but how much there
NAV be i'm the theory advanced re-
mains to be proven.

The new fiscal year as far as the city
government is concerned commences
tomorrow, but salaries will not be paid

hired, will receive attention as usuai
and the bills will be paid, as the regu-
lar appropriations for the expenses or
the city government do not affect these.

which is due them, but they will have
TO wait or raise the money elsewhere.
