let us leave him :\u2014pass.ANNEXATION.There is a marked difference between the speeches that were delivered by American politicians before the late presidential election on the subject of annexing Canada to the United States and those which have been delivered since that date on the same question.Before the election, the speeches were violent and aggressive in their tone ; now they are mild and persuasive.Before the election, they were characterized by an anti-British jingoism, if the term is allowable ; now they are marked by extreme courtesy, if not H.ittery, towards Canada.The utterances during the election campaign were, of course, intended simply as voting decoys, but the recent speeches f General Ben Butler and Senator Hoar indicate pretty clearly that the Americans are satisfied that Canada is not such a bad country alter all, and that some effort in the direction of coaxing her into the Union would not be iuis «pent.This attitude ou the part of our neighbors is a pleasing relief from that which prompted them to speak of Canada as a frozen-out, sterile country, but we question very much if Canadians will succumb to the flattery so far as to prevent them from working out their destiny as an independent people.We have many problems to solve, and many difficulties to overcome, before we become consolidated in a Canadian nationality ; but as the Americans are now acknowledging, we have a great country, with unlimited resources, and it will be our own fault only if we do not make the best of our opportunities.That best will not be incorporation with the Republic to the south of us.We can afford to learn much from the Americans, but there are weaknesses in their institutions which we can only avoid by keeping separate.THE FLOUR DUTIES.The Ontario millers, unable to force the Government to raise the duty on flour or remove the duty on wheat,are now organized in battle array against Sir John Macdonald.The situation well illustrates how impossible it is to make the principle of protection fit into all conditions.There are three different classes concerned in the matter ; (1) the millers, (2) the wheat-growing farmers and (8) the consumers of flour.Take the case of the millers first.The millers, ten years ago, demanded a duty on flour and it was granted to them.But the duty which they have to pay on the quantity of wheat to produce a barrel of flour is considerably higher than that imposed upon the imported barrel of flour.The result is that the \u201cprotection\u201d amounts to nothing so far as the Canadian millers are concerned.The millers of the United Stales can not only undersell them in the Canadian market by this ad vantage, hut have the advantage also of cheaper machinery.The millers therefore, are now protesting, but the Government is unable to come to their rescue.Removal of the duty on wheat would offend the wheat-raising farmers who believe in protection ; and an increased duty on flour would offend the people of the maritime provinces, and perhaps consumers in general.The position of the government is certainly embarrassing, and the moral of it is that such a situation would not arise under free trade.Getting his machinery aud machinery supplies one third cheaper than at present, the miller could afford to be indifferent to protection on flour.As the price of wheat is ruled by the foreign market, i would be difficult, if not impossible, to show that the tax on wheat really iucreisus the price of grain for the Ontario farmer.Lastly, the tax on our daily bread is indefensible on any sound economic principle.A GEOLOGICAL CHAT\u2014NO- 3.Everybody knows that North Hatley is rapidly bscorning a popular summer resort, but not everybody knows that about a mile from that village, and half a mile from Lake Massawippi, there is a large rock which is the subject of a local legend.The legend is that many years ago an Indian had walked over it in his mocassins, anA that hss footmarks, as well as the tracks off his dog, are to be plainly ion it.We heard of it aîîd immediately repaired the spot, ready to give our imagination the widest swing and reluctant, in spite of sceptical qualms, to be compelled to disbelieve the legend.The rock turned out to be a sandstone boulder, of a gneissic character, hut in spite of the trustful belief on our guide\u2019s face we were unable to summon up enough imagination to recognize the marks as genuinely human and canine.It would be necessary to believe, in the first place, that the Indian had stood upon tho rock with his legs crossed and that a liberal supply of fire-water had caused him to \u201cwobble\u201d considerably.There is such a thing as a scientific use of the imagination, but fancies of this nature are not included in it.Then again, the character of the rock and its position plainly showed that it was a travelled boulder from north of the St.Lawrence and had hardened, in all probability, many hundreds of thousands of years before the Indian inhabited this continent.The \u201cmarks\u201d are nothing more nor less than tho gradual deterioration of those portions of tho rock which are most susceptible to the chemical action of the atmosphere.It is to this chemical action, extended through long ages, that we owe the greater portion of our soils.The sub stances most readily attacked by the oxygen and carbonic acid of the atmosphere are iron and potash.Lime is also attacked by the carbonic acid ; but it is generally carried off in solution by the springs to the brooks, i>y the brooks to the rivers and by the rivers to the sea, where it becomes the armor of oysters and other shell covered ocean species, or is precipitated on the floor of some slowly-forming bed of limestone at the bottom of the sea.The iron and potash, however, as well as other substances of rocks, are usually added to the soils in an insoluble condition and a finely divided state.Our legendary boulder has done its share in this work, but it has so happened that the parts of the rock which were m .st readily attacked by tho atmosphere coincided with some-tktiuj like the outline of the foot-tracks of an Indian and his dog.But the legend will, doubtless, still live.Fklix.COMMUNICATIONS.[We do not hold ourselves responsible for the views of our correspondents.J To the Editor of the Examiner.Dear Sir,\u20141 promised in a former letter to write a few words on Sherbrooke past and present, and in pursuance of said promise 1 hereby respectfully submit tho following lines to the mercy of your readers.The writer is an old resident of Sherbrooke, although your city did not miss him when he left or mister him when he returned.However, that only goes to show the unstableness of human favor, and the persistent neglect of the great which so characterizes the inhabitants of tins mundane sphere ; and, furthermore, one more or less may very naturally be overlooked in a city of so many great men.What a rush of recollections is expressed when one, after a long absence, treads again the well-known paths associated in his mind with the happiest period of his life\u2014boyhood days.What conflicting memories hover around each familiar nook, not a spot but had been a scene of some eventful occurrence in days gone by.From the \u201cblack rocks\u201d adjacent to the Fletcher (now Burton) brewery, to \u201cBall\u2019s Is.and\u201d on the St.Francis,and from the bridge that maiks the confluence of the Magog and St.Francis rivers to \u201cpickerel hole\u201d far above the city on the former river, not a spot escaped our investigation.The situation and nature of every nook was learned by heart far better than geography lessons at school.Here on the St.Francis is \u201cDrummond hole,\u201d a treacherous bathing place, from which we dragged adventurous George Lindsay more dead than alive, he having ventured too far out in the stream to return again unaided.And here again on the Magog, at the upper boom, is where smiling Tom Faith went in to bathe, and was rescued again by the skin of his teeth.Tom, who owing to his convivial habits,.had won the sobriquet of \u201cFaith-full,\u201d was on this occasion requested by thoughtless youngsters to take a bathe ; lothing loth Tom complied, and watting out beyond his depth was carried off his feet aud sank like a stone.We had much difficulty in rescuing him, and if any one ever saw Tom\u2019s wia li we saw it that evening in the gloaming.In fact, I ('oubt if Tom was ever so full before or after.The ordeal had a sobering effect as Sherbrooke whiskey is not pr .of against much water.A little further up the stream was \u201cpickerel point,\u201d which at that time was unsurpassed as a fishing place.But all this is over now.The inlet where we had so often \u201cset\u201d our poles under the lurid glare of the \u201cfish fires\u201d while myriads of mosquitos sang requiems to the dead and dying fish, is now filled in and over the ashes of our smothered fires the C.P.R.system now rolls, and it is as well.The pickerel have had their day, and the pond knows them no more.In then-place another species of lish now revel, composed one-third of scales and two-thirds of boire, being, comparatively speaking, utterly worthless.God forbid that changes elsewhere should assume a similar aspect.Returning to the city again, the space between Grindrod\u2019s mill and the old canal presents a peculiar appearance, wrought however by the absence of old houses rather than the presence of new ones ; the whole upper portion of Belvidere Street being swept as clean as if a Conemaugh flood had passed that way.And instead is now to be seen a portion of the body of that sinuous monster whose he;vd is washed by the turbulent Atlantic and whose tale lashes the waters of the placià Pacific.Above the canal and beyond the cemetery, the city assumes new life, activity is rife, and buildings shoot up like mushrooms in a night.Old things are passing away and all things are becoming new.Here real estate has more than doubled within two years.Every acre contains several lots, every lot (almost) contains several hous -s, every house contains several families, and every family legions ! In fact, if one was to sleep in a vacant lot over night he would likely have a roof over him in the morning.This argues well for the prospects ot Sherbrooke.Upon visiting the North Ward or the aristocratic portion JT the city one is struck-\u2014well not exactly struck, but forcibly impressed by the pleasing changes discernible on every side.1 will as ert (not for fear of being dubbed disloyal) that this portion of Sherbrooke compares favorably with even Springfield, and that is saying not a little.The hous-s are elegant, lawns are admirably laid out, well kept, and produce a pleasurable sensation in the beholder.Hedges of fragrant evergreen, fringing cool, verdant grass plots, tend to emphasize the contrast between this portion of the city and the more thickly populated parts where the grass does not grow\u2014under the feet.And this ogain is a good sign.Once more allowing the eye to roam ' e beautiful valley of the St.F rancis and up the slype of the eastern hill an imposing spectacle is presented to view.1 refer to the Eastern Town ships Agricultural Association property.Considering how recent has been its advent, the work accomplished by this association is exceedingly commendable.Perhaps no other property in the townships presents so interesting a spectacle, combining as it does the useful and the ornamental.The promoters of this institution although deserving of great praise for the success with which their efforts have hitherto been crowned, are still indifferent to the interests of our smaller farmers throughout the townships.And unless their future endeavors are characterized by a more comprehensive recognition of the general requirements of agriculture, the majority of our farmers will naturally conclude that Sherbrooke is no place for them, as the inducements left by the comparatively few large stock raisers arc not worth the striving for.As a letter of this nature will seem rather incomplete without at least a reference to the Paton Manufacturing Co., 1 will in a condensed form jot down a short history of my connection with the same.I was employed in the interest of this labor producing institution some years ago, and being possessed of an exceedingly self-deny ing nature, 1 think my connection therewith mater-ially enhanced the general welfare of its promoters.I candidly confess that my position was not a very exalted or influential one\u20141 was not a shareholder, as they would not give me any to hold.Neither was 1 a director, although I hope to die rector yet.I was not a manager,as they had a pat on that job anti strange to relate he was Scotch.In fact,! was not even a\u201cboss finisher,\u201d as an age that will not allow a fellow to manage her, will naturally refuse to let him finish her.All things considered 1 was probably a boss beginner.I had been often told that it was necessary for young aspirants to com mence at the bot tenu of the ladder and work up.Therefore to make assur ance doubly sure 1 began in the \u201cgit room,\u201d which is a storey below the foot of the ladder.This room, situated in the basement of I he mill,is dark, damp, and dreary in the extreme.It seems that several years previous to my entrance upon factory life that the employees, chiefly French, wore obtaining §7 a fortnight, but by a series of strikes carried to a characteristic culmination, they eventually reduced the wages, or caused them to be reduced to 88.00 a f ortnight, which sum constituted rite magnificent remuneration 1 received as \u201cgig\u201d tender\u2014or \u201cgig\u201d tough if you please.Now, setting aside tho gloom of my surroundings, the prospects were not of the brightest.But] was young and hopeful; life with ail its opportunities was before me, and through the portals of the sweet by and by l could catch a faint glimmering of the world beyond \u2014a world in which 1 was not to live alone\u2014as a being possessing sweet womanly graces was associated with all my thoughts of that blissful hereafter when 1 should attain the top of the ladder.\u2019Tis true 81-80 a week was a meagre income on which to found a future of bliss, but I was young and verdant and did not then realize that 81.80 wnuld go further at home than out in the cold, cruel world, and 1 possibly reasoned as the hibernian who said, \u201cI kin almost kape meself, and it\u2019s a moighty poor woman who can\u2019t help a little.\u201d 1 worked on at this mill till the damp surroundings of my underground quarters introduced the germs of rheumatism, and old intlain-matory interfering with my system discharged me, and thus ended my experience with mill life.I am still at tho bottom of the ladder, with bright prospects of remaining there unless some auspicious fate turns it upside down.Farewell dreams of my fanciful boyhood.The light that appeared so beautiful in the distance paled into insignificance upon close inspection.The joys of expectation were withered by the noxious winds of realization.The world that offered such bright inducements to my youthful imagination has become a hard matter of fact whirligig affair where no room is left for idealization, and where lengthy letters stand excellent chances of being basketed.July 10th, 1880.Oscar Dhu.To the Editor of the Examiner.Dear Sir,\u2014The Federal Tel phone Company have secured m St.Johns upwards of 100 live year subscribers at 810 per annum.To those who are used to $20 and 885 rates this may appear to be a losing undertaking.From personal experience in the business 1 am able to assure you that where a company can secure the right of way without expending a fortune, 810 rates are paying rates, and if our company continue to hold public confidence,and maintain a possible existence against tht opposition of a few persons who are using their public positions and public money to avenge their own personal grievance, we shall be able to give 87.50, and in no case to exceed 812 per annum rates, and outside connections to any distance not exceeding thirty miles, 10c per message.Coaticook people before opposition paid 880 per annum for 15 connections.Now they can have two telephones and 140 connections, and Stanstead County free, for 880 per annum.Yours truly, C.Skinner, Sec.S.T.Ass\u2019n.A Noted Colt, Sired by King.Mambrino The People and Patriot of Concord, N.H., says: \u201cMr.Isaac VV.Bushey of this city is the proud possessor of one of the most promising colts to be found in New England if not in the whole country.The youngster, who will be two years old on the first day of June was purchased by Mr.Bushey at Buffalo some time ago at the cost of 82000.He stands 1 11 hands high,is of a dark chestnut color,the only mark on him being a faint star.The sire of this colt was the famous Mambrino King who, although undeveloped aud right out of the stud in a heavy season trotted a full mile under the watch of David Bonner in 2.28.Ho has on two or more occasions after a heavy stud season trotted in public a halt in 1.11 or a 2.22 gait, and it is the opinion of competant authorities in such matters that at l\\,is present age, 10 years, he can get a record in race in from 2.22 to 2.23.The colt is said to resemble his sire more than any other he ever got.The breeding on the dam\u2019s side is superb.Dam Fringe, a full bred sister to Mr.Bonner's blood mare, Frill, by Princeps: second dam, Favorite, by Alexander\u2019s Abdallah ; third dam by MambrinoChief ; fourth dam by Tom Crowder, son of O.d Pilot ; fifth dam by Grey Eagle, and six dam by Whip.\u201cMr.Bushey, by the way, is a trainer himself, and will give this fellow a record when old enough, although he will not push him as a colt either for speed or in the stud.He gave \u2018V.R.S.1 her record of 2.29.As Mr.Bushey is a native of Rich-mqpd, P.Q., and has a brother living in tjhis city Mr.E.H.Bushey we hope to see him aud his valuable colt at the coming Eastern Townships Agricultural

FALL SHOW.their hats in token of their delight and approval.The 4th performance was the most wonderful of all.It was by Madame Marantellc\u2019s train».d horse \u201cWood-lawn,\u201d a beautiful animal trained to perfection, and with a fine ear for music.Madame was on his hack, attired in elegantly fitting black riding habit, and faultless beaver.She sat gracefully and easily as she cantered up in front of the stands where her exhibition was to be given.To the music of the band \u201cWoodlawn\u201d went through all the paces known : walking, pacing, cantering, \u201cfox trot\u201d and galloping, changing them at the will of the rider, expressed one could scarcely tell how, whether by the bit, or by the whip or the voice.One of the spec ta tors gave it as his positive belief that the horse understood Italian as well as music.Towards the close of the performance the band played a very slow march and the animal marched past, holding up alternately two feet at a time, pausing, feet raised, for a quarter of a second, then letting them down and sticking up the other two, in exact time with the music.After passing backward and forward in this movement, perhaps about five minutes, the band suddenly struck up \u201cYankee Doodle\u201d in quick time, and on the instant \u201cWoodlawn\u201d commenced to dance a quickstep in the most graceful manner and in such time with the air that no one could doubt that the animal\u2019s instincts were in harmony with the sounds of the instruments.The picture of the noble, intelligent, handsome-looking animal with its graceful rider, is said to bo one long to be remembered.The leading papers throughout the States and Canada where the performers have visited, speak in the most enthusiastic terms of the character of the whole exhibition, as an exhibition of equestrianism.The Association, in their efforts to obtain attractions, are to be congratulated on their success in obtaining an exhibition of this kind, added to the other great attractions of the balloon ascension by Prof.Hogan, who has now attained a world-wide celebrity through his recent marvellous escape.Gooey\u2019s for August is before us, and presents a handsome appearance, as is usual with this progressive lady\u2019s magazine, which is one of the leading publications of its kind published.The table of contents for this number manifests a desire on the part of the editor to maintain the popularity of the book.Besides many articles of sterling worth in prose and poetry, there is considerable space devoted to a woman's department, exclusively filled with fashion plates and such directions accompanying them as are really available for the amateur dressmaker.Any subscriber will feel amply re?paid for two dollars inv ' subscription.\u2018Send fifi sample oopyf-to Qovieys Phila., Pa.M Among the other numerous attractions which the E.T.Agricultural Association are providing for their forthcoming Exhibition is an exhibition of equestrianism similar to one witnessed by a Sherbrooke gentleman on Monday last on the St.Charles race course in Quebec before an immense crowd of people.He informs us that it wus a wonderful exhibition both of the form and skill of the driver and of the sagacity and training of the animals.The first performance he saw there was a chariot race around the course, three-quarters of a mile, between four spirited black horses driven by Madame McDonald, and four handsome greys driven by Prof.Harris.They came up to the starting point, the eight horses abreast, harnessed to the two chariots.At the word \u201cgo\u201d they started at the full galop.The greys had the pole and kept a slight lead for about half a mile.Coming round on the home stretch the cry rose from thousands of throats CLEAR THE TRACK, and presently round they came at a pace that seemed almost terrific, considering that a woman was holding four horses on the keen jump, the blacks gaining perceptibly, when as they approach the winning post the blacks dash ahead, coining in winners by about half their length, amid such huzzas as testified unmistakably to the pleasure and admiration felt by the beholders.In the second performance Madame McDonald drove the eight horse full speed round the course, the four blacks being harnessed abreast as leaders.The pace was about as fast as in the previous trial, and as the eight horses came dashing along the home stretch to the winning post drawing their little chariot, with madame standing in it holding back on the reins with her great powerful arms, the sight was one never to be forgotten.Many may say\u2014oh, this is a mere circus performance.To some extent the remark is just, but the fact of its not being under canvas, and being out in the open field where the animals could get away, if they were not either so restrained or sc trained, that there is no real danger, all contributes to making the sight much more interesting and startling.The spi ed made was one minute aud one second for a half mile.The third performance witnessed in Quebec was Madame Marantelle driving her fast team, harnessed to a light buggy or trotters\u2019 sulky, against time.They are advertised as having the fastest record, harnessed to a buggy, of any pair in the world.This may be exaggeration, and our friend certainly thought so, because he was under the impression he wras going to see a pair of trotters, but it was not so.Up they came towards the judges\u2019 stand, a sprightly looking grey and a stylish sorel, capering, prancing and chafing at the bits as if they meant mischief.They are fancy and elegant in style and form, standing (if they ever do stand) about 10 hands high.Madame Marantelle, the opposite of Madame McDonald, is rather of slight form, and instead of appearing like a robust, strong person, looks rather pale and delicate.Dressed in a light gray jacket, with close fitting white jockey cap, she has the reins wound round her wrists and seems to be keeping a fine hold on the pair.She carries a long whip in her hand and at the signal a flourish of this starts the pair to a full galop, each taking a stride as long as that of a hurdle racer.Our friend did not get the time, but thinks the pair was as fast as most of our racers make under saddle.The time actually made by this pair in Montreal for a full mile at Lepine\u2019s park, as taken by another gentleman from Sherbrooke who was in the judges\u2019 stand, was L49.As they flew home towards the winning post they had all the appearance of being \u201coff\u201d and from madame\u2019s pale looking face and almost anxious expression, one would fancy she thought so too ; but after dashing past for about 200 yards, she seemed to \u201cgather them up,\u201d turned them about and brought them back to the judges\u2019 stand on what seems to be their natural motion, springing, dancing, capering, with an occasional movement as if they were about to bound and be oft' again.Madame smiles upon the applauding crowd, half of whom are clapping hands, other half s winging Satisfied With the Changes.The Methodists are well satisfied with the pastoral changes which took place on July 1st.Rev.W.W.Car-son is appreciated in Sydenham street Methodist church and attracts large audiences.He is giving bible studies in the morning and popular sermons in the evening.Rev.James Kines, president of the Montreal conference and pastor of Queen street church, is filling the bill to a nicety.He is socially a success.Warm hearted, generous, cordial he has already made many friends.He is possessed of a sympa thetic voice, easy manner and fluency of speech, added to an attractive appearance in the pulpit.Just now he is dwelling largely upon service to God, pointing out the duties of Christians.The large attendecce is well sustained.Rev.D.C.Sanderson, in the Fourth Methodist church, is bringing the membership into close relationship with himself.Larger audiences than hitherto are found in the church every Sunday.He is an original thinker and speaker and promises to prove himself before his term expires.\u2014British Whig, Kingston.The Mlgrhty Dollar Is long disUnced by a ten

has completely flooded the county, destroying lives, carrying off thousands of dollars worth of property, and ruining crops for many miles.Mrs.Tucker, Martin Lawless, and an unknown man were drowned.Above ttre destruction was still greater.At Chester-ville, a small town about ten miles above, half the residences were carried off bodily and left in cornfields.Big TygartValley is completely ruined.In Clay District a fine church and three dwellings were wrecked.The steamer \u201cOneida\u201d is reported wrecked and sunk at Enterprise, and the steamer C.C.Martin\u201d is sunk at Burring Springs.The Little Tygart Valley is also reported completely ruined, but no lives are reported lost, there as yet.THE WORST STORY of all comes from Morristown a small village near the head of Tucker Creek, where the cloudburst concentrated all its fury, coming down in the village about midnight and totally destroying it with many people.The first report gave the loss of life at 11, but later news seems to increase it.The houses are said to have been picked up and hurled against each other in such a short space of time that no chance to escape was given.It is impossible now to estimate the loss, even in this city, as the river is still rising and tearing everything loose.A family boat containing three or four persons went out during the night and it is believed all are lost.A freight train went through a trestle which was washed out at Harris Ferry, wrecking the train and killing a man.it is reported that Iock No.1, above the city on the Little Kanawha, has given way before the

yet few persons are taking the pains to examine into the iSea-of this diminution, which will \u2018^become more and more formidable unless proper remedies are discovered andapplied.\u201d It was not,however,until tue year 1843 that the Duke of Richmond after careful experiments, gave to the world the important fact that the value Sf bones as a manurewasowing to their large percentage of phosphoric acid.Since which time science has taught manufacturers to reduce the apatites and other forms of rock phosphate to a soluble conditiou by the application i>J sulphuric acid.We have in the Ottawa District,perhaps, the largestde-posits of apatite in the world.We also have sulphuric acid as a by-product oi our sutphuret of copper mines.Our farmers and our people are looking quietly on while lintish and American capitalists are rapidly getting the control of the claims and shipping our national fertilizers to assist their farmers to undersell our products in the world\u2019s great markets.Steam transportation has brought all nations into direct competition with each other, and those which produce the best and cheapest articles will,naturally,reap the best results.Our Governnient(a result of party rule) either controlled by the manutacturers of sulphuric acid or -ignorant of the demands of agriculture and the country, actually legislate against the cheap production of superphosphate of lime by placing a duty of 35 per cent on sulphuric acid.The danger of handling and transporting this acid is a high protection against foreign competition which has to pay enormous rates for carriage.I can not think any government, alter a careful 'Investigation of this item, will continue it on the protected list and thereby give a monopoly to the copper mine companies in direct opposition to every national interest.The f.anu-ers should organize for the purposes of obtaining information and taking united action on every question pertaining to their interests\u2014the nation\u2019s interests.Ontario is awakening ; lecturers are meeting the people anti discussing agricultural questions, but so far, it seems to me, they fail to get to the '¦bottom of the difficulty.Politics, and all ad verse interests must be thrust aside, and face the position as it exists to-day.A general organization of the agriculturists (two thirds of the voters) having in view how to obtain the greatest amount from the land at the least possible cost, and leave the store of plant food undiminished, would check and control the mania of protection and monopoly which has got such a hold on the two great powers of this North American continent.As I passed a week ago through the counties of Missiquoi, Chateauguay, Huntingdon and Beauharnois, I thought, with such land and such resources as we have in this Province, why do we fear the coaqietition of any country ?Our agricultural and national undertakings must be conducted upon sound scientific and commercial principles, and then we can defy western ¦ competition.With the improved machinery of to-day,* the experience of the past, the investigations of science and the cheap and rapid means communicating thoughts and methods the world is calling for cheap production ; and in order to successfully compete we must utilize all our national resources which, in this Province, are most favorable.I hope in my next to continue this part of the subject and then briefly take up the social aspect, which has much to do with taking our young men and some of our older ones, away from the farm into other avocations.\u2022Ino.Ewing, Jr.JiiiliuHrHtl t P, if, May, faithfulness and strict obedience.! Ninety-six looked about him in a | dumb, despairing sort of way as the question was repeated.\u201cI do not know,\u201d he answered, slowly.Then he raised his head with a brave, proud gesture, and clenched his hands with a determined air.\u201cI will fight my way,\u201d he said \u201cthough the whole world oppose me.\u201d Warden Hanks had first seen the light in southern Indiana, and his speech bore witness to the fact that he was still faithful to the idioms of the dialect of that region.He was 'a Number Nine-Six.\u201cWal, Ninety-six,\u201d said the warder, as he followed the ex-covict out into the sunshine, \u201cthis is a change feryer hain\u2019t hit.Ninety-six glanced at the bright \u201e au\u2019.uin^landscape, the clear, calm sky ThcTthe complacent-looking sun that he had not seen for years, except through the grim bars of the penitentiary.Far off to the right, away from the city, the heat seemed to rise and waver and simmer, and softened the rugged outlines of the bold sandstone bluff, and made the disreputable old cedar tree on the top apparently dace a staggering reel against the horizon.A proud \u2019old rooster, in the shade of the scowling wall, threw back his red-crowned head and spoke in tones of triumph of the happiness of being free.Ninety-six\u2019s heart echoed the shout of freedom of the lowly bird.\u201cFree -free !\u201d it seemed to sing to him.\u201cWhat yer goin\u2019 to do now, Ninoty-queried the warder.\u201cDo?Oh, yes!\u201d Ninety-six awoke to the world.\u201cDo?\u201d The delight of be-ling free\u2014free once more had stilled [all thoughts of the future.But now confronted him.What could he lo?The worid, society, everything arrayed against him, and the of crime his imprisoment bore fitness to.He had nothing with t'hich to do battle against the stem >rld\u2014nothing, not even a name, number Ninety-six was all he iuld claim, and now, as he passed out The prison enclosure, that slipped lay from him.[\u2018What yer goin\u2019 ter do ifow?\u201d re-' the warder kindly.Ninety-six l been a favorite with the prison a account of his unfailing big, raw-boned, massive man, capable of holding his own with a Texas steer but somehow he seemed confused and ill at ease in the presence of this pale determined man, whom he knew only as Ninety-six and who so bravely faced the world alone.The warder grinned sheepishly.\u201cHit\u2019s sumpin\u2019 we don\u2019t often do,\u201d he said, \u201cbut me an\u2019 the boys \u2019lowed we\u2019d help ye out a leetle.So I sez to \u2019em, sez I, \u2018Boys,\u2019 I sez, \u2018what ye goin\u2019 ter do fer Ninety-six?\u2019 Never said much, the boys didn\u2019t, but every one of \u2019em div down inter his pockets an\u2019 fished out what he could spare.Were it is.\u201d The warder extended a sealed envelope, which Ninety-six took and glanced at mechanically.It bore an inscription which read : \u201cTo number Ninety-six, from the warders, guards, etc., of-Peniten- tiary to help him to get a new start in the world.\u201d There were tears in Ninety-six\u2019s eyes as he glanced at the contents %of the envelope and noted that they were bank bills.He grasped it heartily.\u201cThank you and the boys, Hanks,\u201d he said.\u201cYer welcome.Ninety-six,\u201d answered the warden, awkwardly.Then the ex-convict dropped the hard hand of the other, and turned away.\u201c Good-bye, Hanks,\u201d he said ; and there was a suspicious tremor in his voice.\u201cGood-bye, Ninety-six,\u201d said the other.Ninety-six, as he trudged citywards, saw his past life come up before his mental vision, a panorama of thought.He had been a wild youth, but had renounced his sowing of wild oats when he had wooed and won a sweet, pure girl's love.They were a youthful and handsome couple, people had said, and Ninety-six had been a man among men then.A daughter had been born to them ; the perfect likeness in miniature of her -beautiful, flower-like mother she was.When five years had passed over the sunny head of the child, the sweet wife sickened and died.Her gentle spirit fled one stormy night on the wings of the tempest, and the young husband was never the same again.The child was taken by her grandparents, and Ninety-six went his wild way, striving ever to drown the spectre of sorrow that was always with him.At last the grandparents\u2014stern, but just\u2014forbade him to even see his child, the miniature of her fair-faced mother, again,.and then he disappeared.He went on in his downward way in the West, whither he had drifted.Then came the crime that landed him within the grim walls of the prison.Horse-stealing on the border is a crime that is not dealt with leniently, and thus his career ended.There had been extenuating circumstances proven or his term would have been longer.Ft was shown that but for the drink that tired him the original owner would still have been in possession of his animal.Ninety-six might have even been acquitted but for the almost superhuman efforts of young Dallas Thorn, the prosecuting lawyer.This was young Thorn\u2019s first effort, and he strove so long and hard in the legal arena that the prisoner at the bar speedily became Ninety-six, and nothing more.Then the dismal monotony of the heart-killing existence within the prison walls rose up before his thoughts as he strode along towards the city, and lie glanced back towards the frowning edifice on the elevation he had just left.Hanks, the warden, had just turned and disappeard through the distant gate as he looked.Then Ninety-six resumed his onward way.He entered the city and stepped into a little shop to purchase some fruit.While the proprietor was sorting the fruit, the boy, who was attending to the wants of another boy, remarked in a stage whisper to the young customer : \u201c Gaol bird ! Look at his hair !\u201d \u201c Yes,\u201d answered the other.\u201c See them hands ?Poundin\u2019 rock done it.\u201d \u201c That\u2019s it !\u201d said the shop-boy, with a grin of delight at his acuteness.\u201c Orter chain up the stove while he's round.Might steal it, ye know.\u201d They burst into a shout of laughter, and Ninety-six passed out into the street.He had overheard them, and the words rankled bitterly in his heart.This was but the beginning of the battle against the world, he thought.Hu clenched his hands, rendered hard with prison toil, and steeled his heart against the world.A portion of the money given him by, the warder purchased a neat suit of clothes, and otherwise served to give a favorable appearance.Then he seated himself in an east-bound passenger train, and sped away from the old life to enter a new one.He would return to the little village where dwelt his child with her grandparents, and he would for her sake strive to be a new and honest man.He thought of her still as a little child, but the years that had flown had made her a young girl, almost a woman.ITiey (the child and her grandparents) had not known his disgrace, but had thought him dead long ago.With them he would start again, on an equality with the world, and perhaps again be happy in his child\u2019s love.A day or two later, in a dainty, vine-covered cottage, at the end of the elm-shaded street of a quiet little village, a sweet girl-woman sat in the cosy little parlor, where the dim gleam of the twilight cast a soft shade about her.There were tears in her beautiful eyes, but they were tears of tender joy.Her face was irradiated with sweet love-light.By her side bent over her a noble looking man several years her senior, but still in the pride and strength of his manhood.His arm was about her, and her sweetly blushing face was pillowed on his breast.Gradually the darkness settled down upon the little village, but for a time they heeded it not.At last the lamp was lighted, and cast a bright glow over them.It was after dark by the time the train that bore Ninety-six came to a stop, and the brakeman uttered in an unintelligible shout the name of the little station that the ex-convict knew so well.He made his way with as little difficulty up the dark street as if it had been but yesterday, instead of years ago, that he trod it before.There was a warm glow about his heart.He would enter his new life.He would see his daughter, and, buoyed up by her love and trust, would win for himself a place in the world.For she would love him, he told himself, for he was not such an ill-looking man, after all ; and coming to her as one from the.dead, she would be sure to welcome him with the loVe and kindness of a fond daughter.He approached the house.How well he knew the gate, that responded to his touched as of old, when he had come a-wooing the daughter of the people, who, even now, were perhaps sleeping in the little back chamber.The gate gave no sound as he softly closed it behind him.His heart bounded with the long pent-up fire of love for his child.He thought, with fluttering throb and tear-brightened eyes of the girl who, in the other days before he was a felon, had waited and watched so longingly for his coming.A light shone from the vine-shaded window.He tiptoed towards it, and a low murmur of voices came to his ear.SofùÿdbfcP-n'tt d the vines and peer-toom befpre him.ce he started back, his heart.One of the figures before him seemed that of his dead wife.So like was she to the woman that he had loved and lost that for an instant he contemplated rushing in and clasping her to his heart.Then the thought came to him like a flash.It was his daughter, his dead wife\u2019s child, upon whom he had gazed.He looked again.The face of the man who bent so caressingly over her was turned towards him, and Ninety-six started back again, with a half-uttered exclamation that almost betrayed his presence.The faae before him was that of Dallas Thorn, who, as a young prosecuting lawyer, had sent him to prison.Dal Thorn it was, older now, but still handsome and stalwart.After success had followed success, Dal Thorn had, during a season of vacation, drifted eastward.Here he had met and loved the daughter of the ex-convict, who now stood just outside the window, and peered, almost glared, through the window at them.Ninety-six grated his teeth ; but why should he cherish bitter enmity against Dal Thorn ?The prosecuting lawyer had but done his duty in weaving about him the chain of evidence that had placed him within those prison walls for all those long years.Ninety-six, in the joy of his new-found liberty, and the happiness of the speedy meeting with his daughter, felt that he could forgive Dal Thorn for anything.Hark ! What were they saying in the bright room just beyond the fragrant vines ?The girl, with her head pillowed on the breast of the man, and her pure, dainty, flower-like face upturned to his, was asking, after the of lovers, why he had sought her out from the whole world as the object of his affection.And Dal Thorn answered, with his proud face bent to hers, that it was because of the flame that leaped to life in his bosom in response to the call of his heart at sight of her pure, peerless beauty, tft was proud of her ; proud of her rare, dainty loveliness and her stainless name.The man at the window shuddered as he listened ; but then they knew not but that he was dead, the girl and the grandparents.And Dallas did not know that the man whom he had made Number Ninety-six was or had been aught to the lovely girl beside him.Then Dallas Thorn told her of the proud old family of which he was the last, and of the stainless name they bore.Something urged him on, and he to\u2019.d her that, much as he loved her, if he knew her to be with but a little cloud on her history he would leave her and never see her again, even though it would break hisheait.The girl clasped him convulsively.\u201cI think I should die then,\u201d she said, simply.The man at the window turned away.He was the cloud on her fair name, he thought, bitterly.The bright dream had vanished.Only the space of a swift drawn breath he wavered undecided.Then he slowly made his way out of the little gate, that seemed to give a mournful squeak, almost like a little moan of pain, and staggered slowly down the street.The heart that before sounded so joyfully in his bosom seeuied lifeless.A great wave of agony came over him.His decision had been made.He was dead to the dear ones, and dead he would remain.It would only be the fit continuation of a wasted life.Those happy dreams seemed not of him or his, but to have come to some one else.On and on through the darkness bowed down by his weight of woe, he staggered.\u201cShe will be happy,\u201d he said, half aloud.\u201cAnd I\u201d- And then his voice died away.He left the little village, and in the darkness entered the forest and staggered along through the black shadows.Finally he sank down, half exhausted.The wind rose and moaned through the tree tops, and steadily increased till it was almost a tempest.It roared through the boughs but Ninety-six, stretched on the earth, heeded it not \u201c Little Alice\u2014little Alice,\u201d he whispered.\u201cShe will be happy, and 1\u201d- There was a crash as of riven tree trunks\u2014-a dull thud that made the very earth tremble\u2014and Ninety-six lay dead.Morning.Silas and Ben Topdod, woodchoppers, strode along through the forest, and presently approached the great tree which they had been attempting to fell the night before, and had left half severed when the darkness compelled them to desist.The monarch of the forest lay prone where the force of the tempest had levelled him.\u201cWind finished our work for us.\u201d \u201cDon\u2019t known as I keer much.\u201d answered Ben.\u201cI wasn\u2019t anxious to chop this mornin\u2019, nohow.\u201d As they advanced, a crow rose from the tree trunk with a discordant \u201cCaw !\u201d and a rascally flirt of his dis reputable tail.Something half buried by the fallen tree-trunk caught Silas\u2019s eye.He proceeded to investigate.\u201cIt\u2019s a man !\u201d he cried.When aid was obtained, they drew the poor, mangled form from beneath the great trunk.It was Number Ninety-six.We found this in one of his pockets,\u201d said Ben, at the coroner's inquest, was the envelope bearing the lengend \u201cTo Number Ninety-six, from the warders, guards, etc., of-Peniten tiary, to help him get a new start the world.\u201d There was money in the package, and it buried him decently.After much solemn investigation,all of which came to naught, the coroner\u2019i jury returned a verdict of accidental death.As the little funeral, with the corpse in the wee black hearse, slowly wended its way towards the weed-grown graveyard, there passed a gay little party in festal attire bound fora train that would bear thhem away on their bridal tour.It was Dal Thorne, and his blushing, dainty bride.The groom, at the bride\u2019s request, leaned from the carriage and asked who was being carried to the gave.\u201cNumber Ninety-six,\u201d some one answered.Beauty la desired and admired by all.Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal beauty is the daily use of Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor.No matter what the color of the hair, this preparation gives it a lustre and pliancy that adds greatly to its charm.Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring out a new growth, and render the old soft and shiny.For keeping the scalp clean, cool, and healthy, there is no better preparation in the market.I am free to confess that a trial of Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor has convinced me that it is a genuine article.Its use has not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be Abundant and Glossy, but it has given my rather stunted mustache a respectable length and appearance.\u201d\u2014R.Britton, Oakland, Ohio.\u201c My hair was coming out ( without any assistance from my wife, either).I tried Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as tine a head of hair as any one could wish for.\u201d \u2014R.T.Schmittou, Dickson, Tenu.\u201c I have used Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and regard it as the best hair preparation I know of.It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color.My wife has used it for a long time with most satisfactory results.\u201d\u2014Benjamin M.Johnson, M.D., Thomas Hill, Mo.\u201c My hair was becoming harsh and dry, but after using half a bottle of Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor it grew black and glossy.I cannot express the joy and gratitude I feel.\" \u2014Mabel C.Hardy, Delavan, 111.Ayer\u2019s Hair Vigor, PREPARED BY J.C.Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.Sold by Druggists and Perfumers.ETABLISHED 185

lie was silent as the gave., Elgertoii had treated his interlocutor distantly though politely, hoi with such evident moiil renee, l liai Eley at last ha l d cid -d t ¦ bunion all furthei a tempt f ext .i i inf irmation from E ige.ion hnn.cif.He must prosecute nis search in other directi ins.This having been d< c d :d upon, Eley sigm d ids will, and bade cue 1 iwyer an effu-.ive farewell.In me lawyer\u2019s outer office the deiectivc paused with the bewildered aspect of a hound at fault.Presently ire became conscious tiiat he had excited the observation of the otiiee-boy, and he hastily regained his self-possesion.Had Edgerton observed him too ?he thought to himself.\u201cGood-by, bub,\u201d he said heartily, resuming the bluff sailor manner that tie had for an instant forgotten to assume.\u201cMaybe I\u2019ll take you to the circus again one of these days.\u201d The boy grinned, and Eley took his departure.He could mature his plans as well outside the office, he reflected, as in the presence of this over-shrewd urchin.As Eley closed the dour and stood upon the door mat, undecided as to his next step, he heard the voice f Edgerton from the inner office calling to the boy.Like a Hash Eley fell upon his knee, and began to toy with the lacing of his boot.In this position, by a strange coincidence, the ear of the detective and the keyhole of the door came in exact apposition, and Eley found he could overhear the words of Edgerton, as he spoke to the boy.\u2018\u2019What did you say to that man at the circus !\" E lgertoii asked in angry tones.\u201cI didn\u2019t say nothin\u2019,\u201d whimpered the boy ; and then a short silence followed, in which Eley fancied that he saw Edgerton scrutinizing the lad\u2019s frightened face with his sombre eyes.Presently Eley heard him speak again m the calm, sad voice which characterized him :\u2014 \u201cBe careful that you do not ; you occupy a position of trust, and be careful that you never mention what you may see or hear in this office.\u201d And Willis Eley, now havi ig arranged his boot-lacing to his satisfaction, crept stealthily away.He saw that he was suspected, and that no time was to he lost.The detective hastened to his office and threw aside his disguise, donning in its stead the costume he had assumed when first he had visited Edgerton\u2019s lodgings.Then he hastily repaired to Edgerton\u2019s boardinghouse, and demanded an interview with the landlady.\u201cWell, madam,\u201d he said, as the woman accosted him in the hall, \u201chave you come to any conclusion about the room I looked at the other day ?\u201d \u201cWhy, no, sir,\u201d answered the woman, with hesitation.\u201cAt least not exactly.I think the room will be vacated, but I can\u2019t say for certain.\u201d \u201cPerhaps 1 better give up all idea of taking it,\u201d Eley answered with seeming reluctance ; \u201cand yet I shall be sorry to loose it, it is so sunny and cheerful, and I like the house so much.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m sure I shall be sorry to lose 'Jon, sir,\u201d said the landlady, with a smile.She was a thin blue-eyed woman, with severe, sharp features, and a mouth which drooped at the corners in a manner that gave her thin face an expression of unusual austerity, \u2014 an expression which was greatly enhanced by the two little perpendicular wrinkles which rose on either side from the junction of the down ward-curving lips.It was a face un-suited to the conventionalities of the world, and her smile was a derdly discouraging failure.Yet Eley was by no means intimidated by it.He saw that the woman intended to be friendly, and her grimace emboldened him rather than otherwise.\u201cWell, madam,\u201d he Continued blandly, \u201cI can manage to wait another week.You see my own lease won\u2019t expire till a week from t »-morrow.Perhaps by that time you will know definitely.\u201d \u201cI should think so,\u201d the landlady responded.\u201cIn the mean time, could I take another look at the room ?\u201d \u201cCertainly and the landlady without hesitation again preceded the detective up the stairs, leading the way to Edgerton\u2019s chamber.This time Eley had a definite object in view, but he feared lest he could not accomplish it.Every advantage that the room possessed was pointed out, and commented on by the shrewd detective, who was now striving to throw his cumi>auion off her guard.At length the woman threw open the door of the closet.\u201cHere is the clothes-press,\u201d she said with womanly pride, as she sbiod aside to make room for her companion.It was a large and spacious closet, liberally furnished with hooks and shelves.On the upper shelf was the row of bottles which Eley had noticed on his previous visit.\u201cIt\u2019s a very deep closet,\u201d the detective remarked with feigned admiration, ss he \u2019thrust his cane between rows of garments hanging on the japanned hooks.\u201cHow wide is that shelf, I wonder ?\u201d he abruptly inquired, looking at the shelf above his head, and thpn glancing furtively at his Eley had hoped that she wAuld become worried and sit down.But she did not ; she stood thfere beside him, rigid as the laws, with her hands resting on her narrow hips, in a strange attitude of watchful intentness.\u201c1 should like to know,\u201d lemarked the detective meditatively, as if speaking to himself ; \u201cperhaps it may be wide enough for my port-folios.\u201d With these words Eley drew a chair into the entrance of the closet, and mounting upon it, began to measure upon his cane the exact dimensions of the shelf.As he did this, he slightly moved two little bottles, which stood, at the front of the shelf with their labels turned away from the light.Now, indeed, he was very near the object of his search.One of these bottles was half empty ;the other was full.Either might contain the colorless material he had seen at the drugstore.It was now of paramount importance that he should read the number upon the half-empty bottle.Eley seized the second bottle as if to move it aside.He was in the very act of turning the label to the light when the landlady interrupted him.\u201cPlease, sir,\u201d she said sharply, \u201cdo not disturb any of Mr.Edgerton\u2019s things.Mr.Edgerton is very particular, and it\u2019s time enough to measure the shelf when we know that the room is to be vacant.\u201d \u201cI have already measured it,\u201d the detective blandly answered, making a little scratch upon his cane with his thick thumb-nail, and smiling down upon his campanion.\u201c1 will disturb nothing, madam, do not fear.1 will simply verify my measurement.\u201d Eley had already caught the first two figures of the number on the label, and was to near the accomplishment of his purpose to he deterred by the landlady\u2019s disapproval.Again he turned himself toward the shelf in spite of the landlady\u2019s motion to restrain him : again his hand was upon the objtct of his search, when suddenly the woman uttered a cry,and Eley involuntarily dropped the bottle.At the same instant he heard his companion exclaim, \u201cVVhy.Mr.Edgerton, how you do startle one !\u201d And Eley, turning upon the chair, saw that Edgerton was behind him.\u201cBeg pardon, sir,\u201d cried the detective, springing from his chair with an agility surprising for a person of his bulk, and emerging from the closet with awkward embarrassment.He fear, d that all hope of concealment had now vanished ; but a glance at Edgerton\u2019s face instantly reassured him.The young man was pale as diath and fr giitfully agitated.Great drops of sweat stood upon his brow, and his whole form trembled with excitement.He was evidently under the intluenc.of a deadly fear.Fear of what?questioned the detective to himself.Edgerton spasmodically pushed his visitors aside, and anxiously gazed at the bottles on the shelf.Eley could see that he win reassured by wh it he saw.Mis face slowly regained its wonted aspect, and but for h s hurried biciihing it.was evident the man had recoVt ic I from the shock he had just experienced.Anger at this unwarrantable intrusion into the privacy of his apartment Edgerton did i.ot manifest.His whole aspect was the aspect of r -lief.The woman was the first to break the siienee.\u201c1 beg your patdoti Mr.Edgerton,\u201d she said slowly ; \u201cbut some time ago you spoke of leaving us and 1 had just taken the liberty 1 showing tins gentleman your room.\u201d \u201cIt makes no difference,\u201d answered Edgerton wearily.\u201cBut m future 1 beg you will do nothing of the kind.I have no intention whatever of giving up the room.\u2019 Edgerton sank languidly into a chair, and took up a book as if to intimate to his visitors his desire to be left alone.He seem ed to have relapsed into his old habitual melancholy.The landlady, murmuring some further excuses, moved towards the door as if to go, when Eley, who had kept himself in the background, now stepped forward and confronted Ed gerton.He must deffnitely ascertain if the lawyer had detected him.\u201cI am very sorry, sir, that I have intruded upon your privacy,\u201d he said courteously.Whether it was that the voice sounded familiar in Edgerton\u2019s ears or that the younk man\u2019s suspicions had already been aroused, the detec tive could not determine ; hut at all events, as Edsierton turned his eyes upon him, Eley saw that he was recognized,\u2014that Edgerton had identified the intruder into his chamber with the Captain Burton of his office.CHAPTER XIX.\u201cWHAT WAS DONE?\u201d Thus did Duncan and Eley, acting upon the theory of \u201cWho done it ?\u201d proceeded with checkered success to unravel their respective theory.Keene in the meantime, adopting the method he had advocated from the begining, had settled himself down to the solution of the problem, \u201cWhat was done ?\u201d How had Bryce Barclay come to his death ?What agent had been employed by the assassin for the destruction of his victim?Keene had considered the question from every standpoint.At first he had devoted himself to an exhaustive study of the nature and action of the various poisons upon the body,\u2014a task of no little difficulty to one not versed in the technicalities which head in a scientific subject of this nature.The by-paths of science, as is well known, are beset by many difficulties and puzzling doubts ; and perhaps, in the whole broad field of medicine, their exists no subject more complicated and conjectural than is that of the toxicological action of drugs.The result of Keene\u2019s study had brought him to the conclusion that Sedgwick s testimony was in the main true : that Barclay\u2019s death, if duo to poison at all, could only have been caused by one of the three drugs,\u2014 prussic acid, aconitine, or woorara.Of course it was conceivable that Barclay had been poisoned by an admixture of these or other drugs, but this was a possibility too vague for serious consideration.Moreover, it would not materially alter the aspect of the case, whether the victim had been poisoned by prussic acid alone, or by prussic acid in combination with woorara or aconitine.It was further possible that Barclay had died from the ingestion of some drug, the action and principles of which had hitherto been undescribed.This supposition was more tenable they the last, seemed the more plausible when he considered the opportunities for investigation which lay at Sedgwick\u2019s disposal.Yet Keene\u2019s research had brought him to the conclusion that this supposition also was unworthy of credence.It was possible, of course, but nevertheless unlikely.His investigations had shown him that the discovery of anew poison is similar to the discovery of a new planet,\u2014an event of the most unusual occurence.Indeed, he had come to the knowledge that a new poison is barely discovered once in a century.How unlikely therefore that such a new poison had been discovered for the express purpose of the destruction of Bryce Barclay.Furthermore, the detective had learned that by far the greater number of the known poisons cause death by convulsions.How improbable again, therefore, that this new poison, admitting for an instant that such a new poison had been discovered by Sedgwick, should act in a way so opposite to the usual course of events.Of coursa it was possible ; but still it was extremely improbable.This conclusion, therefore, brought the detective back to the three drugs enumerated by Sedgwick,\u2014prussic acid, aconitine, and woorara.In prussic acid he found a means of accounting for all the phenomena of the present case.It might have been administered in a diluted form, mixed with some article of food or drink, or in a concentrated form of inhalation.In this latter case the assassin might noiselessly have entered the studio ; have crept up behind the chair of his unconscious victim ; and, 'tanding behind him as shown by the r»ph, have administered to him arm\u2019s length.This theory would account for the distance at which the murderer stood behind the chair, inasmuch as the fumes which poisoned the victim would have proved disastrous to the assassin himself, unless *jme similar precaution had been observed.Tins theory assumed, to be sure, that Barclay was unconscious when the murderer entered ; but Keene was convinced that this must have been the case from the attitude of the dead man, as shown by the photograph.He was convinced that death had overtaken him while he was asleep.There was certainly a good deal in favor of the prussje-acid theory ; but, on the other hand, there was much to be said against it.In the first place, prussic acid of a strength sufficient to cause death by its fumes alone, Keene found to be an article exceedingly difficult to obtain.Indeed it seemed doubtful to him if acid of such concentration existed at all, at least as a commercial commodity.Moreover, prussic acid is characterized by a strong and permeating almond-like odor ; an odor so persistent that it is often appreciated in a room or about a poisoned person for many days after its employment.How unlikely,therefore, that this odor should escape detection in the present case, a few hours after the supposed use.To be sure, the windows of the atelier had been found open when Prose had returned at five o\u2019clock.But then, on the other hand, the odor of prussic acid is too powerful to be dispelled even by a free current of air blowing for two hours.Furthermore, Keene found an authority stating the rigor mortis following death by prussic acid to be of unusual strength and duration, \u2014an assertion which first induced the detective to study up this question of rigor mortis.The rigidity of the body after death Keene found to be a phenomenon of almost constant occurrence, yet reference to the report of the autopsy revealed to him that no allusion had been made to it in the present case.Careful search showed him that this was ;m unusual omission.Indeed, in a case of poisoning by prusic acid it seemed to him almost certain that this condition would have been noted Taken as a whole, therefore, the detective did not favor the prussic-acid supposition, although it was the most reasonable theory hitherto adduced.Perhaps the remembrance that Eley had so readily adopted this view of the case was the factor which influenced Keene to contiue his search.At ail events Keene was by no means satisfied with the prussic-acid theory.( To be continued.)

most encouraging.The Halifax Carnival is expected in no small degree to add to the passenger receipts, as the indications are that this novel event will draw large crowds of pleasure seekers.Arrangements are now being perfected for the running of freight trains, as the bonding arrangements are now satisfactorily agreed upon with the United States.The prospects are that this branch of the business, when thoroughly established, will be a very remunerative one.At a meeting of the Protestant rate payers of Coaticook, for the election of two school commissioners Messrs.B.Austin and
