T.RANSBANED BY VIRGINIA CHAMBERS, ' CONTINUED. Stepane’s life became hi,rd.Iiving alone. He Ifad never known solitude. The Russian peasant’s nature, essentially hospitable, -ill accords with isolation. Htepnno merely thought of his wife’6 treachery; he scorned her-, but without ar.gor, looking upon ber almost ns lie would a faithless dog that forsakes its mastor tp.foljow the first new-comer. It is our refined civilization which has put .a jinaband’s jealousy in the heart of the indifferent than; the patriarchal cus toms, in Mich a case, admit the justice of the feelings of the proprietor injured in liis rights, but not those of wounded ’honor demanding reparation. But what Mnkiuiof could not pardon was the base desertion of his fireside; his cold .sup pers and suffering beasts, and the want of water Hint -had not. been drawn—all these material trifles filled his mind. The summer mouths thus passed away. The peusaut woman, Auicia, his neighbor milked his cows and took care of the poii(try-yard morning and -evening. Bt»psue one day, as he passed her, stop ped nud uttered a word of tlwuks- Af terwards he .simply accepted the daily service, for must uot the work bo done? However, lie remembered one day that his neighbor was a widow and poor, that alie had two uhilJreu to feed with the work of her own hands, and • ho enteTea her house. ‘ ‘What do you do with my cow’s milk?’’ lie asked brusquely. Believing her probit- y doubled, poor Anica blushed to her temples, and has tened to answer-:~“Biitter, little -father, butter} There is a tub full of it under the house to keep fresh, anti your, hens, eggs"arc in a large pot next to it. If yon order it they can be taken t> town : at the, fiigp opportunity. There |re six- teondozeu eggs and-sixty pounds of butter. You ongthto Sell a cow Stepane . Jlaknrief; for a man living alone, two cows are too many.” “We wil]'see,-* repliedStepane, ‘‘But you liave two children, and you have no Cow; I do not wish for yoit to make so much batter, and I wish your children always to have eggs and milk; do yon heai?”- ‘•Tliank 3011, Stepane Alakarief,” said the widow, humbly, moved to tears. “May-God reward yon.” Stepane left as suddenly as he had en. fcerod." The cold autumn rains came. As it was. morning the housekeeper heated the stove for the day, and at evening the weary men stretched out their limbs ..cn the broad lijauki of brick, wanned j very fast, but with your eyes shut. Then Underneath liv t ie pleasant, mild heat of logs. Gu returning home, Stepane found the great room cold and deserted; his wife had burned nil the provisions of, wood of the proceeding year, and the roads were so bad that before snow came one could take but little to the village. However, he dicided to harness his two horses and go for wood through the swamp, w^t with incessant rains. A wish to return without his load; Ha went a great distance to find large stones to prevent the wheels from slipping back on the crumbling soil; with cries and gesticulations lie excited his brave little horses, and succeeded so well that towards 4 o’clock he got off, wet from bis feet to his waist by the marshy wa ter, and from waist to brow by the drops of swe* mpn his body. Thus he re turned fo the village, and hailed with a mocking remark, as he passed him, the man who ’had predicted the failure. Then he unharnessed his horses, rubbed Ills horses down carefully with straw, and prepared them a fresh litter. At times a shiver passed through his frame; he felt consumed with an ardent desire to work—“to warm himself,” he said; bnt a headache weighed on his brain like a leaded skullcap, and at his every movement he felt the blood throb in ,his brain with heavy thuds. He persisted, however, in expending the herculean force he felt within him, and he dragged bis beavyitelega to the shed alone, un loaded it and piled up his wood. Then he wenl into the. house. A vertigo seized him, the staircase seemed to turn round under his fest; he threw himself on a bench and fell asleep nil dressed,.witliont even having strength enough to draw a garment, to wards him to c.over his shivering limbs. In the morning be awoke so sick that he thought hefwas going to die. Not a sound was heard from the village, and the dull light of an autumn day entered through the small windows. “Have people already gone to work?” he said to himself faintly. He tried to raise himself on his elbow, but could not. “The hour of my death lias come; God save my soul,” he said; and he fell iDto a troubled sleep. A long time af ter Stepane woke a second time; his head still pained him, but a kind of vague physical well-being which lie now felt left a pleasant sensation; there was warmth around him Suddenly he raised his heavy evelids and looked about him. His first thought was that the house was on tire, For there was a reflection of flames leaping on the walls, and the air was heated. It was not a lire, but liis glowing stove which sent a jyootis flickering lights across the qpUms ol the ceiling. A helping hand, bad piled warm Clothing over his body; his heavy boots,'.saturated with dampness, were smoking us they dried a little distmeo from the fire. All this astouished Ste pane .somewhat, whose brain was not capable of l-ugtiiy reflection! The creak ing oj a footstep was heard on the ntair- casei and the outer dcor opened and shut ugain—it wus not Irina who ap peared, but? Aincit. On her left arm she carried theyoungest of her children, and with tue right- hand she carefully held a teapot of coarso china. The widow had uot perceived that Stepane had awakened, the room was dark and the dim light of the dawn without still blinded her eyes. She approached the the table, took from the partly opened cnpboiud u enp and saucer, and with child still on her arm, busied herself in attending to tus fire and stiring the gruel cooking in a groat pot near the oven. . - “Ah, little father,” she said, turning round quickly, “may the good God be praised—you are speaking! Are you better then?” “Have I been sick?” asked Stepane, raising him self a little more. His head seemed to him empty and very big, but be no longer suffered. “Have you been siok? Why this is the third day that you have done nothing bnt.sleep, anS asked in your dreams for something to drink,” “Three days!” exclaimed Stepane, quite astonished. “Why, yes: you w,<?nt for wood Satr urday, - did yon not?” “I do not know,” said the sick man. “Yes.it was'Saturday. Sunday, af ter mass, ou seeing that yon did not go out, I came ber£ and found you quite coll, and stiff as a stake. Yon were saying something in i low mice and r. fierce antenna wind whistled about him; but lie scarce heeded it, wrapped AS.he was in his sheepskin pelisse. In . Api$e of the bad roads he -Sent, as far ns the forests, singing in a high-pitched voice one of those interminable and melancholy songs so well made to is press the vngne sadness of the horizon and fiat monotonous landscapes. Not without some difficulty Stepane arrived At the place where the wood forthe. Com mune was J-eady waiting for the sledges; loaded his cart to tbo fop and went pn his homeward way. His horses sunk in - the swamp,_ahd the cart was bnried-ahoxe^the tislefree. He went in to the water np fo his waist to pnsh the wheels, for he possessed nil the tenaci ty of purpose of bis race. They told film in the morning that he could'never briDg buck his wood, bat- he did not turned to the fields, iiSS I covered'you up 'well, made your file, and tried to draw off your boo;s; bat I was not able to; jou did not turnover on the right side. To-day is Monday, and yon turned oyer only yesterday; and then I drew off your hoots, and put a little pillow under your head. Yon are better -as far as I can see,’ aren’t yon,:” “Yes,”.sighed Stepane. “What is the matter with your lit le one?” Anica looked tenderly at. the child she was holding on her left arm, end wliose- divopiug dead was resting on the ma ternal shoulder. “Jt is his teeth, the eye-teeth, you know. Between you and him, yesterday, I did net know what I should d«. Do-yon .wish sbme tea, gte-- pane Makarief?”' ' “Yes,” said the invalid, sitting sp straight. He was fulfill. With rare exceptions, the Russian peasant is not id very long; he dies or recovers in a brief space of time. Sir- pane’s strong nature, perhaps, would not have" fared him, had it-not been for Amca’s care, little os ic bad been in her power to give. After a few days he resumed Lis usual habits, and re- Anjca continued to light bis stove and prepare bis meals, and lie accepted her services quietly, as a matter of course, knowing that he could, at the first opportunity, return what she had done for him. The oeca. soin soon presented itself. The October rains had completely saturated the ground. After one day tilling the soil with a poor little horse, birecVfor the occasion, Anica returned home overcome with fatiguo, and feel ing pains in all her limbs. Astonished at not seeing his supper prepared, Ste pane entered the poor cabin and found the widow exhausted, near the table' where the two children were dabbling their spoons in the bowl which contain ed their evening repast. ■ “What has happened to yon,” asked the peasant, surprised. “l am ill, little father,” answered An ica, raising her weeping eyes towards bim. “My limbs will no longer beri me. Excuse me; 1 have not put your house in order to-day. I shall go theft to-morrow.” She gave a sigh and with difficulty turned around. Stepane looked at her without saying a word; his ideas never came in great abundance, and’each reflection cost him a’ certain effort of mind. “And my day’s work, to morrow,” continued the widow, lamenting. “The. field is only half ploughed, and it is high time sowing was begun. I did not even have strength enough to re turn the horse to Ivan Petrof, who lent it to me,” “Why did yon borrow a horse of Ivan Petrof,” asked Stepane in a rough voice. “He promised it to me in summer, because I did several days work on Ms potatoes. Ah, heavenly Father, If only my children ate not made or phans!” Stepane looked at her with a enrions expression. Without saying a word be left the cabin rubbed down the steaming horse, and led him back to his owner; then he returned to the widow’s house. ‘The horse is now in his master’s barn,” he said. “Go to sleep now: I am goiDg to put the children to bed.” “Thank yog, vury much, Stepane Makurief,” said Anica, with a sigh of relief; apd she threw herself all dressed on her poor pallet, drawing, over ber her reality covering. Sfepawe laid her younger child in his cradle, already lot small for him, placed the elder on the bricks of the stove, covered both chil dren, extinguished the little smoking lamp, and left, wishing the poor family a good night. The next day Aniea was no-better. Step me sent in a neighbor and bade her take care of the Pick wo man, saying that lie would pay her; then, without listening to the widow’a lament itiour, lie went out and saddled his best horse, mounted it and gayly set off. For a long time, ever since he return ed from the city, had lie felt his heart so light. He had his plan. He work ed all day, and, towards noon, instead of returning to his dinner at the village, he regaled himself with at piece of brown bread and an onion, which lie had put into,his pocket, and was still working wheh the first star appeared in the heaven. Tho day had been clear and beautiful, but the approaching frost was felt in the chilly air, “Why are you so late?”, a peasant, passing along the road, called out to him. “What are yo doing there? I thought your field was tilled a long while ago.” “I am paying a debt,” answered Ste pane, gesticulating to hi-s horse to start him np, for he was falling asleep in tho in the mopptonus round of the plowing; “go, I shall be back before long.” It was late when he returned to his neigh bor’s; the children -had finished supper and were being put to bed. With ayes bright with fever Auiea followed lies visitor’s movements, who threw his cap on the table and seated himself, cross ed his legs. ‘ ‘ Is there anything io eat here?” he asked with a contented air. “There is grnel and milk,” answered the woman whom he _ had engaged to take care of the widow. “Stepane,” said Auicia from her cor ner, “yonr stove is heated and your d.untr is r-.-ady; I told my neighbor t - prepare all that was necessary. ” f‘Thankyon, but I prefer $0 take my supper here; it is livelier. Do you know, Auicia, you no longer shall tor ment yourself over your field; it is plowed and to-morrow we shall sow the seed.” “Oh,” fiflid thjj widow, crossing her hands, '‘did yon do that?” “Who else, - ’ answered Stepane, rub bing Lis. knees with :in air of good bu rner: “1 do not wish yon to piongh; it is too Lard work. You shall keep my liouse in order, and I wfil busy myself with your field. There, hnshj it annoys me to see any oce ery,” he added, to cot short the widow’s grateful tears. [to be continued.

Es gen CEIMB1HGFOKEIFB Three Men Treed by a Beau j>sd a Mounded Beck—A Desperate Figrt, Dr, Boh Grier and a party of sports, men of this place returned from a big hunt in the wilds of Rotter connty re cently, about twenty miles northwest of Couderspoit, where they spent a week in pnrsnit of game. Grier is well known as a g-eat fox hunter and lover of the chase and on this occasion he met with an adventure^that js worth re lating. Thursday last he left his party at the cabin where they were encamped in the forest, for the purpose of visiting a lumber camp about four miles away;, to see an acquaintance. He slung his Remington over his shoulder thinking he might get a shot at a deer or a bear. About half way between the cabin and the lumber camp was a stage road but little traveled. . As he crossed the road he came suddenly on a large buck. He fired, inflicting a slight wound, which secured only to irritate the animal. The buck made a dash for him, and he was compelled to climb a tree, having bare- ly-time to escape being trampled to death. In his flight, Rob dropped his rifle, and he Intel no other weapon ex cept- ihe ordinary hunter’s knife. His situation was anything but comfortable, b'lt as there was a possibility of relief from a passing team he felt dtspored to make the best of the situation. After he had been up the tree about an hour he beaid the erfuk of a rifle, and almost immediately two of his’eom- panions, by the name of Sutton and C<-le, came rushing ly, pursued by a bear of unnfrual size and activity. They took refuge on a wild cherry tree, which parted in two trunks at- a few feet above the ground,. one part leaning slightly and very rotteD, the whole looking like two Irees. Once up the tree they were safe from immediate harm, if the bear could be kept from climbing after them, In the meantime Di” Bob, in a fit of desperation, con cluded to risk an encounter with ‘the buck. In preparing to descend he took the precaution to fasten bis knife, the only weapon he possessed, by a pieee of twite' to his person, so that it might not he losfcif it dropped from his hand. Close by a hemlock had fallen, and the routs at- one endand the branches at the other kept ihe trunk of the tree nbont two feet from the ground making a jdiico of retreat to which he conkl retreat if hard-pressed. He descended cautiously, but the enraged animal was oh the a lute and teshed upon him. His great Strength was no match for the buck, whieb crushedhim to the earth and tried to stamp hint to death. On Lis hands and knees, tunneled and bleed ing. lie succeeded in reaching the fallen hemlock and crawled under the trunk. The buck could just touch him withhis feet, bnt could not. harm him. Anxiety and pain were wearing Bob out, when he heard a crackling noise at the root of the tree and a sharp cry of pain from the buck, which is a familiar sound to the'experienced hun ter. Peering out cantionsly, he found •lie deer securely held by the knooted roots of the tree, and his right leg dan gling loosely, it having been broken in the effoi t to' escape. He was satisfied from the'desperate struggles of the ani mal that it could not extricate. itself, ind watenipg a favorable opportunity he pin rged his knife into the buck’s heart, and sank down exhausted. At this moment Dr. Holmes, who re sided some miles from that place, and who was attending a patient at the Mm. !-er camp, drove np and found Dr. Gri er, who was an old acquaintance, lying upon the ground almost exhausted from loss of blood. He took Grier into the wagon, and after leaving a revolver nnd knife in sight of the men up fbe eheriy tree, drove off to the camp for help. Meantime the bear, after many inef fectual.attempts to climb the tree, gave it np, and apparently relaxed liis watchfulness' by lying down some dis tance from the tree. Sutton, at this lime, thought at least one of them might escape and broaching the idea to Cole, w-ho objected; knowing (hat re lief would soon arrive. Watching an opportunity. Sutton descended the tree quietly, without being observed, and aitor looting cantionsly for -some dis tance sprang to Ids feet auil stilted for the cabin with the speed cl the wind Meeting the relief party hurrying np to their assistance, he returned with them *o the rescue of Cole. Meanwhile the bear bad got up and moved to the foot of the tree, winm, ap •n’-ent'y missing one of she men, lie renewed Ids efforts to climb it. Suddenly ihe decayad part qf the tree fell with a crash,. The bear was soriewhat stnDned, but fortu nately Cole was not hurt, aDd be started for the revolver and knife, which hj se cured. The bear pursued’and o vertook him and hugged him around the bodv. Cole fired, but did not inflict a snffi cient wound to make she bear relax its Lola. He fired a second and a third shot, with no better result. But one snore bullet now rf mained in tad pistol He Ms softly on the bear’s breast t- THE HAIL'WAY UP US. VENSUVI- Tho most extraordinary railway in the world, perhaps, hns now been com pleted. It is a line up the slopes of Itioant Vesuvius, from t he level of the Neapolitan Bay to the very edge of the crater. Not so many years ago such a project would have been ridiculed as the very last outcome of fanaticism— as who should suggest a terminus st Pom peii or a good stution-among the mar ble rain s’of Olympi 11 ’ Yet has been done, anl Vesuvius has been scaled from foot to summit by the iron legion. The construction of the line, of course, has been ‘peculiar; it is laid upon a sol id pavement of-masonry, believedjto be perfectly secure from the overflows on either side of Java; there is no locomo tive, but a powerful traction engine at either end, and the methods of draught are by ste el ropes working on grooved wheels; and should these break there is scarcely a possibility of the train re- ceeding downwards at a dangerous pace or to any considerable distance. For these details we are indebted to the Di- rillo, of Turin. That. journal states its belief that, comparatively inexpensive as the construction of this miniature railway is, it may prove an 1 xcecdiDg profitable speculation, considering the perpetually increasing numbers of tourists from the New World and all parts of the Old who flock to that scene centre of historical marvels. If, how ever, for the very fact of its conception and constraction alone, the Vesnvian Railway would be entitled to rank among the wonderful ideas and achieve ments of the nineteenth century, it is not to be compared with the’ gigantic Alpine works. They were called for; this, in many senses, wag not; it has supplied a convenience, while they mot great international necessities. Bnt it is a characteristic of tho ago that can answer both demands, root up an oak cr pick up a needle; and the small line that crawls up Vtsuvius is, perhaps, not less an emblem of the epoch than the mon-ster spanwhieh bridges Niagara.— London Echo. -»»«• The New York Elrcttok.—The cor rected ehetion returns from Kings county give to the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Mr. Potter, some four hundred more vojes than ho wascredited with after the informal count. Hoskins ban still, however, as suming that the official can vase in New York city Willi verifyi the figures fiist published, a plnriality of &25. The completion of tlia New York canvass may slightly change these figures,but it can hardly extinguish Jloskin’s plurality and show the eleitiop of Potter. The election of the other Republican candi dates, Sdule excepted, seems to have no possibility of being affected by any chan ges 2: the returns. Nope of them lm, however, polled an absolute majority of the vote of the State; their majori ties are merely over tho vote cast for the Democratic candidates for the same positions.

As, how ever the snn looses every year a por tion of this caloric, science has lately come io the conclusion that he will not exist as an emitter of warmth more than seventeen million years to come. During that space of time onr earth will get colder and colder, in proportion as the solar beat shall diminish. The ice will advance from the poles to the equa tor; the earth’s population will gradual ly recede before the ad.vancirg glaciers; the sun will become less luminous, un til he will present the appearauoe of a dark-red ball, and finally ,ce will an- hililate all vilality on our planet. Bdebet ix His Heart.—In July, I87S, Amos June, of Qreenwich, was careleesly shot in tlieli'lt breast by a colored boy named Eli Carpenter, The bullet remained in the body, nnd on the last day of August-. 1S7S, June fell dead while at work'in the field. An inqnest was held, and a verdict rendered the charging Carnenter with criminal neg lect. It- was found on the post mortem examination that the bullet passed through the left lung, rnptnred the per icardium and into the heart. The heart was subsequently taken to the Pathological Society of Sew York, and the bullet was found. On Wednesday, October the 29th, Carpenter was arres ted while passing through Mianus. and committed to Bridgeport jail to await the action of the grand jury.—New Ha rm Courier. A walnut tree, within three-qnaSwS of a mile of Anderson Sfatinn, on the Nashville and Cliattsuonga railroad, hns just been sold for 8125.

In 1878, 2.708 medical students were graduated from fifty nine colleges of the United States.
