Sauntering home, the one smoking aud

smoker threw away his cigar, which
lit on a bench, and tlie boy with the

heel of the forward foot came on a line
with the toe of the other; but all tlie

.She could not move one foot an inch
without making them grind. Mrs..
Surrat sat bc*ore of rather on one side
of her judges, chained with links of
iryu as heavy as those of a log-clmin ;
and while she sat thus she was grossly
insulted by spectators, men nod w >-

when one of these creatures said “I
hope they’ll hang her! Just look at
her! She looks like S;4fevil!” Lfjould
not bear it, but spoke out and said :
"She does not look like a devil. She
looks like n good, kind-hearted woman,
and you are a mean coward for insult

said to me: “Sly’s a relic!,” and I re
peated. ‘‘Coward ! coward!”
Mrs. Surratt looked up, and our

About four years ago, Bcott A -John

of Bpringfiejil OT, One of their 48 inch
Turbine wheels for the saw mill which
we now own and operate, and tlie bar
gain was that tlie wheel under sis feet
head should properly drive a 40 inch
circular saw mill, on an inch feed, in
pine timber. The wheel did not begin
to come up to the representation of its
manufacturers and in fact would not
carry the saw through a cut on five-
eights feed, without lagging and re
quiring us to gig l ack toget i p motion.
When out of tlie ci t the wind Would
run very rapidly, hut as soon as the
saw struck into tlie log the power of the
wheel seemed to “ play out.” We re
fused to pay for the wheel because it
utterly failed to coine up to the guar
anty, but we kept on with it, doing half
work, waiting for Leffel A Co. to come
and take it off our hands, until in
June last, their agent, Mr, Merrit’,
came again and witnessed the perfor
mance of the uiied, acknowledged its
failure and took it away from our mill,
remarking that, ltd ffelt confident we
could not find any 48 inch wheel that

wheel had done ; hut we purchased of
