It might have been a funeral,or some religious meeting, for they both drove off dressed in their best, in the gig, with old Ajax harnessâ€" ed to it ; and after I had tucked in grandâ€" ma‘s ironâ€"gray silk skirt, and ran to the house for grandpa‘s spectacles, and had seen the gig vanish in the distance, I felt ilouely. Burus‘ Hollow was a lonasome.. rambling mansion, which might have ’sheltcrcd a regiment, and had a ghostly l::.ir about it when one wandered through | the upper rooms aloone. ‘ |. There were but two servants in the | Litchen, Hanuah Oukes, and the Irish lad | Anthony. I heard them laughing merrily | together, for though Hannah was an oldl | woman, she was full of fun, and in five } | minutes the door opened and Hannah came | in with the tray. ' It had grown pitch dark, and the moon had risen late that night . At first I could only make out a crouching figure at the bottom of the poren ; but when I spoke it advanced, and I saw a black man. I had always had a sort of fear of a negro, and instinctively shrank away, but as I did so he spoke in a husky whisperâ€" This is Massa Morton‘s place, isu‘t it ? Yes, I replied. â€" But grandfazher is out. I retreated as he advanced. Please, miss, ho said, Judgo B. sent me here. He said massa ‘ud help me on. Let me stay here a night, maiss.

Grandpa and grandma may stay away all night, and I feel nervous. To be sure there is Anthcuy, but I never rely on him. Then something prompted me to say, Be back by nine. Why, I cannot say ; but I felt by nine that I should be in some peculiar danger. Haunah promised and went away, and I heard Ler heavy shoes on the garden walk sutside. I sat thus a long time, and was startled from my reverie by a knock at the doorâ€"a timid sort of knock, so that I knew at once that it was not a member of the house or an intimate friend. I waited, expecting Anthony to epen the door, but finding he did not, weut to it myself. Please, miss, said she, as she set it down, may I run over to Mapleton toâ€"night? My sister‘s daughier had a boy last night, they say, and I want to see it nat‘rallyâ€" it‘s the first I‘ve ever had of grandâ€"niece or nephew. Who brought the news? I asked. Anthony, nuss, said Hannab. He met Gcorgeâ€"that‘s my niece‘s husbandâ€" when he was out after the cow, and tuld him to tell Hannah she‘s a grand aunt. Early as it was, I had lighted the candle and dropped the curtain. I sat long over my tea, finding a certain companionship in it, as women of all ages will. 6 young uns. ~ Got clear a‘Your ago, "Miss, lmmmyuu‘r old Ajax ware U pray fur you ebéry"day ob Smy life, of MM, und iny ‘grandpareuts wero Only & chair : but upon its sectt A wellâ€"bent pin found sifo retreat; Nor had the keenest eye discerned That heavenward its poing was turned.

You might better have slept, you had ; for, you see, you‘ve got to pay for waking ; I‘d rather hev let a chick like you off, but you know me now, and T can‘t let you live, I stared in his face with horror, mingled with awfal surprise ; for now that it was close to me I saw, not the negro, but our hired man, Arthouy, whom I supposed to be miles away with Hannah. Heo was little more than a youth, and I had given him many presents, and always treated him well. I pleaded with him kindly. Anthony, I never did you any harim ; I am young ; I am a girl ; Don‘t kill me for grandpa‘s sake. a You‘ll tell on me, he said doggedly, likely I‘d be caught. No, I must kill you. It was a slight noise, but at that moment the chip of the chisel stopped. I heard a gliding, and, horror of horrors, a man came in from the study, sprung toward me and clutehed me with both hands, hclding my arms as in a vice while he hissed in my Now, certainly, grandpa‘ and grandm l would not come, and Hannah, waiting for : the .storm. to pass,..worild mot.beâ€"hereâ€"for hours.

There softly as I could I unfastened the bars and bolts. Alas! one was above my reach. I waited and listoned. ‘Then I moved a hall chair and elimbed upon it. In doing so I struck my shoulder against the door frame. Back of the sittingâ€"room was grandpa‘s study. . Therc, in a great old fashioned safe, were stored the family plate, grandâ€" ma‘s jewelry, and sundry sums of money and valuable papers. ‘The safe itselt stood in a closet recess, and at the closet the thief was now at work. Perhaps the next act would be to murder me if I listened. The storm was still ragâ€" ing, Int though the road was lonely, better than +~‘s house, with such company, I couldn‘t â€"ave my grandfather‘s property. I sat perfectly motionless, the blood curdling in my veins, and still chip, chip, chip, went the terrible little instrument, until at last I knew whence the sound came.

Every editor loves to have his friends and particularly his readers, call on him. They belong to the same family, as it were. But when you call to see the eaitor don‘t stay too long. Editors are generally very busy in business hours. If you have a suggestion to make, or news to commueiâ€" cate, state it in the fewest possible words. Don‘t offer any excuses, or indulge in a pretace to what you have to say. Blurt it right out ; all the editors dote on such men as that ; they love to receivo calls trom them. . Don‘t argueâ€"with themâ€"don‘t try to do it. They have no time for argument whileâ€"at work.

The frequent obâ€" |servance of ‘submarine volcanoes of both the enstern and western coasts of Africe tends to confirm this belief. Last spring the volcanic district between the mainland and the Canaries was unusually active, aud at the same time Madagascar was yisited with several shocks of eartoquake. _ Toâ€" wards the end of this year these were reâ€" peated and extended to the mainluand of Africa, the town of Tho, in Mozambique, being destroyed in the early part of Novemâ€" ber. With the exception of three. severe | shocks of earthquake felt on July l1th, at Cairo, and in the neighborhood of the Great Pyramid, these are all the records we have of the kind from Africa. Asin, on the other hand, has been in one part or another the scene of incessant and most seâ€" vore vutbhrcaks. Early in March the Himâ€"| alaya region was generally subject to "shocks," which were followed at the end of the month and till April by a} series of disastrous carthquakes in Persia. I Between March 22nd and April 3rd, twenâ€" | tyâ€"one counsiderable villages were destroyed, i and over fifty severely damaged, while the l ‘loss of human life was computed at over | 2,000. ‘The villages of Mianeh, Manau, | and Tark, which were completely demolâ€" , ished with nearly every soul within them, j contained 500 inhabitants aâ€"piece. The | same period was one of unusual activity in | ‘ Java. From March 28th to June 5th inâ€" ceseant earthquakes were felt in all parts of | the island, ‘The volcanoes of Smeru and| Gede emitted enormous quantities of lava | and ashes, the latter being carried great | distantes, iand several towns and villages | were injured or destroyed, and many lives |‘ lost, espectially at Tjandjoer, near Batavia. " On June 19th ‘the scene was changed to |‘ Northâ€"West China, and throughout that | month a succession of earthquakes were |‘ experienced ; the ground opened, water| was thrown out of the fissures, whole towns | / were levellsd to the earth, and nearly 1,000 | souls perished in different towns throughâ€" |/ out the provinees of Kansu and Shenshi. | The total loss of life, therefore, from earthâ€" quakes in Asia during the past year must' have excceded 4,000.

About Editors. < 4@b e 4â€" h i ‘An inquest was held in the Town Hall at : Prince Albert, on Wednesday and Thursâ€" | day . of last week, on the body of Mrs. Cooper, who died on the 4th J anuary, 4t is alleged, from the effects of a kick from her husband. A post mortem examination was held, and the jury at the inquest returned a verdict of guilty of manslaughter against | Thomas Cooper. The man is now in the gaol at Whitby, awaiting his trial at the Bpring Assizes. [The Whitby Gazette gives the following particulars of »the affair :â€" "The married life of the prisoner and the unfortunate deceased was a most miserable oneâ€"he being in the constant habit of Isbusing and starving her and his seven | children, In the middle or end of October last he found fault with her because some seed beans were not pulled, and on her sayâ€" ing that she had pulled all that were ripe, he struck her a savage blow on the face with his fist, and followed it up with a fearâ€" fu) kick on her left side, knocking her down instantly ; the woman, at that time, being within three months of her confinement. She. managed to caawl out of doors and called ‘murder ;‘ he rushed out, knelt heavily ou her body, and seizing her throat compressed it with such force that the blood gushed from her nose and mouth. She told him then that he Jhad given her her death blow, when he nmade a brutal reâ€" ply and walked off. Mrs. Cooper was conâ€" fined the last week in December, the child being dead, and on the 2nd of January the poor woman died, the cause of death being given in the Registrar‘s books as sceptiâ€" ecemia or blood poisoning. The prisoner, Thomas Cooper, was taken before Mayor Harper and Mr. O‘Donovan, J.P., charged with the wilful murder of his wife, Mary Jane Cooper, and at the request of Mr. J, E. Farewell remanded for a week. He was asked if he wished to be present at the inquest, as if he did he should be taken there. e replied that he did not want to be made a show of. ‘The prisoner is a very tall, powerfully built man, of about 45 years of age, stands over six feet, and, we hear, was a member of the Metropolitan Police force, from which he was discharged some years ago. .

He had an immense power of abstracting himself from his immediate surroundings, ard of concentrating all his powers on one line of thought. But someâ€" times this power mastered him, instead of being held at his service, and then the ofâ€" feets were occasionally strange. It is said that if a thought struck him in the course of dressing in a morning, he would pursue it for hours seated on the side of his bed, hose or shirt in hand, and only when the problem was solved would it occur to him to fimish the process of sttiring himsel{. It is related that his friend Dr. Stukely, being invited by him to dinner, was introduced to the diningâ€"room while Newton was still in his study. â€" The doctor waited pationtly, making all allowance for the importance of the calculations on which the philossâ€" pher was probably engaged. But atlength the dinner having been placed on the table, and appotite getting the better of patience, he made beld to carve a fowl, and replaced the cover.ou the remains. Some time afâ€" ter his guest had finished Newton came in, and remarking that ho was very hungry, sat down to the table and took off the covâ€" er, Nothing but fragments being discowâ€" ered, "Why !" he exclaimed, "I thought I had not dined yet ; but I see I was mistakâ€" and goes on again," was the answer. . The next day I inspected the mill. I found in the nrincipal department fiftech machines at work quite unattended. _ They were making silk and woollen cords of all Kitids and in nurnerous :colors, | combinatione â€" of silk and wollen, and in nmany varieties | of designs. â€" Large boblbins, charged ~with material and foeding themselves from orid> less rolls, revolved round each other tpon a large rotating disc of slower ~movement. It was almost like an astronomical model of a sun, with a planetary system "in~ moâ€" tion. Between them travelled ~yarn in course of working, and this was clothed in various hues and designs by revelving silk. The old method of manufacture was to make the cord in lengths longwise. Binns‘ wethod is rotary and endless, almost withâ€" out beginning and without end. *"Excoept for cleaning," said the inventor, standing by one of the machines as he spoke, "this would go on forever until it was worn out ; but Jet us put it at a week. Tt will go on from Monday imorning till Saturday night without touching ; it is selfâ€"feeding, self taking up, selfâ€"acting." He broke a thread; the machine mended the breakage, and went on again.â€"Tinsley‘s Magazine. iine adtatnedimaties inintaliire it antetit ie hiv. W ae andi mings, and other things.
