It was about eleven o’clock on a stormy even, leg thut I bade good night to my student, Tom Richard, »l the door of my laboratory, at the tunth eiid of the college building. *'(r«Ka!-i<)ght, Professor,” said Tom; wearo going to buv« s fall of hydrogen, oxygen, and a Irort* of Mite*." llulrogeu mid oxygen— in onr nomenclature, II. O — is water. •J h«*pe,” I said, in answer to Tom’s playful m>r«K “that it will not ra»u before I get home. ’’ “On no: it wont for an hour yet,” said Tom.” “I’fit n," J said with a sigh, noticing that the n creary in my barometer wmh falling, a sign of n violent storui, *T slmll certainly get wot.” Tow was very anxioiu* to know what would keep mo up after twelver o’clock ; so I told him I wMShlmutto commence analyzing the stomach of s Mrs. Johnson, whose bnsbsnd now lay in I 1 . jail, just across the road from tbs college, on suspicion that he was the murderer. Tom Mid I hsil worked bard enough that day and do- a*nred the night to myself, lie spoke the truth. Still 1 had delayed examining the woman’s Ntoiiuch so long, and the trial was so near At hand, that I could not iu conscience pat olT the rumination farther, although I had heard seve ral rUsaert recite at the different publio schools iu ih* morning, had delivered a lecture iu the college proper that afternoon, and one in the UUiratory that eveniog, hr aides attending to my several duties aa poiico surgeon daring the diy. Ah Tom was passing out cf the colltyp* yard, through the gate, his head turned, bidding me good night; he brushed against a man stand ing with hia back to the college and his face toward the prison. The street lamp showed me that the man was clad in tbo polieo uni form. llo entering my laboratory, I took down a glass jar from a shelf, and pat down bpfare my sink to « xaminc it. The jar, which •entatuea Mr*. JiiUijMin'ft niouiBuh. »*• aBTBsA ny a oiotn, duly tinl with Kiting* anti pro petty sealed with my ..ffleial seal iu red mi. Breaking through the clolti anil leal, I lifted the atomnch oat with n th-ireting bonk «n<l l*i«i It on the white platter U(,.re inn; then became bnaily on Raged in ap plying than teat* to it* oontent* by which we detect the pteaence of injurious substances. An bonr had possetl since the depsrtnre of Jonng Htcharda. I hatl earofnlly emptied the canton ta of tlte atomach into a n am bar of bowls anti basins. I had labor* d hard to discover traces of poison in all this, bnt bad lieen nnanc- resafnl. Joe Johnson, the anspeoted man, had breu a atodant c.f mino a few years before. I thought him a Rood-beartod, intelligent fellow, only a little wild; and really began to hope that he might prove inuocent; when tiuong the mac erated fowl I came upon a amall. infloitesimial white grain. Hy careful manipulation and the nso ot my magnifying glass I managed to get this upon a piece of amoked glass, and exam ined it. I was then oortain I bad discovered arsenic: hot to make aaanraneo ilonbly anre. I deter- tuinod to apply a well-known test for that poi son. Accordingly, I placed in the womans atotnach the nsnat aoida, and then tnrnod on the hlow-pipe flime, and presently thero appeared teat brilliant metallio mark worthy of Cain a hrow, which is the sign and aignot of tho Poison Fiend. "Yes,” I exclaimed, aa I saw that fatal blazon, "Joe Johnson in the mnrdererof biawife! With the evidence of that mark to back me, no power cjn save him from the rope!" •‘Oo yon really think so ?" aaid a calm squeak ing voioe behind me. , 1 turned quickly and discovered a tall, lank policeman, having red, weak and watery eyes, ■landing at my ofttoe door and staring in. Ilia t.oJv looked aa if it had been rolled out long be tween hia hands, like a molaaaea candy stick. His nose was merely an elongated, Heehy ping, and bia forehead was decorated with two red streaks instead of eyebrow*. He hod no expro*- moo at all in hia face, and hia policeman * bat waa ao large that it threatened to settle down on hia shoulders. ilia uniform reassured me, and I addres-od him with some impatience: "My friend, I suppose I am wanted to attend an ir.qneat—or what ia your purpose ^ “So, doctor, tho man ain't dead yet.' •'Anything in the anrgieal way?" 1 was police surgeon as well ns ooroner. "No." ••Wall, then, why am I sent for at thia time of night ?" “Don’t bother, Ferfosaer; the man ain t dead vet; bnt they say ho will be before morning." "Are doctor* attending him?" “Ob, bo’s in good hands, Perfesser.” "What'a the matter with him?" "Well," said tbeofflolal, “some folk* ray be * got ao much knowledge into him that ho can t lire nnder it." “Cerebral disorder, eh?" “What ?" naked the man. "Drain disorder, I mean; something wrong here." I touched my forehead, and ao did he, as be said: "Aye; and 1 thought I'd drop in and tell yon if you was going to the station to-morrow to take a look and aea if "it's poet mortem or not Decides, I wanted to see where I canid always find Ton in ease of need.” I bowed, and attrtbnted hia visit to • feeling of cariosity. He sat on the sink, one rubbered foot thrown over the other, and wiped bis noee with a dirty hankerehief several time*, while his eye wandered abontlike Christopher Colom- bn* after dUeoveriea. Finally he spoke, like one who thought himself called to say some thing. "Perfeasor, there baa been an accident this afternoon t terrible, too.” "Ah 1" aaid L “Awfnl!” said he. •'What was it?" , _ , v : “Nitro glycerine explosion np in the iron mill, , hundred fellow-mortals bora ted!" “Sad!" “Affecting, very." Here he rubbed bia mouth with the back of bit hand. “Professor what i* that nitro-glyoerino ?” . "It ia a very dangerous article, I answered, hsppy to display my knowledge. “It has nearly twice the doetrnotiveness of gunpowder, bat. unlike it, doe* not explode on the application of heat. A red-hot coal dropped into it will not explode it. It will not freeze; it i* yellow and greasy. Its symbols in our nomenclature are 03. H5, (No. 3) 3, 0«." "Yon don’t mean to say so!" mid the officer, interrupting me in disagreeable ton os in the very middle of a choice extract from one of my Wares. “Why, but yon hain't told me how it doe* go off. If fire won't boat it, what in—(hem) -will?" I told him if it were pressed or anything fell on it, it would explode. “Plsoo it under the ornaher of a eider mill, alrike it with a hammer, let a weight fall on it from a height—" “Tee," said my man, “and that mnaas it voloanar, does it?. How does it come, Fer- feraer?" “In little caM—why, like these ?” said I, dis covering that there wss a little can of it on the marble aink, which I bad earelecaly neglected to replace in the cellar. I then took e little of the glycerine, spread it on an anvil and struck it with a hammer. A alight explosion and fiune burst from the paper. “No, re ally, "said the policeman, staring back. “I suppose, Professor, that that can would make a mighty noise if allowed to explode here ell at onoe ?" ‘ It wonld blow the entire building all to aroma," aaid I, resuming the analysis of Mm. Johnson's stomach. "No!" I heard the polieeman remark, in deliberate Yankee tones; “yon don't say ao?" The next moment I lay on my back, a gag in my month, terribly frightened and riek at hurt. O ter me stood the polieeman, and the first thing that functionary did was—looking me straight m the flee—to take off hia nose! He then rid bimaelf of bia red eyebrows, hair, cap, and be came a determined looking fellow, with tho eyes of a fiend and the nose of a Roman. “So you think, aaid the metamorphosed, in the tones of a gentleman, “that nothing can save Joe Jobnaon from tbe rope ? Poor fellow! it does look like it. Bat, my dear Professor, Joe Johnson i* fortunate enough to have in me a devoted friend, aa well as brother. I h«ve undertaken to nave him, and he shall he saved! In order to this end it will be neoanaary to re move from tbe face of tbe earth not only the atotnach of bi* miserable wife yonder, bnt also, my dear professor—I'm sorry to be obliged to ««y it, for I believe yon were my brother's teacher and friend, yourself aa well.” I saw that he wa* in deadly earnest. “Yonr death most apparently result from ae- eident—at least, ao it mnat seem to the authori ties. My brother is in jail, and they will not an-rect him, and they certainly trill not soaped me.” What terrible deed waa on hia brain hatching? Waa be going to mnrder me? The hard-earned knowledge of a aooro of years I would have given for power to utter one single cry. He look me in hi* arms and plaoed me in chair, and bonnd me to it, and then from a side pocket he prodneed another rope. Waa it myself who was to hang instead of Johnson? No j yes. lie placed the line pnlley-like over an arm of tbe hanging chandelier. Thia waa altogether too alight a support even for one of my alender frame. It waa not to be hanging, then? To one end of tbe rope ho attached a weight, and raised it by pulling the other six or eight feet from the floor. The loose end he secured to the sink. Waa he mad? Did be mean to draw mo nnder this weight, and send me ont of the world in a novel way by letting it fall and dashing my brains ont ? To the sink end he attached a long yellow string. Under tho weight on the Door be pltoed tbe can of nitro glycerine ! I recognized the yellow string: it waa a fuse, and it wonld bnrn sixty minutes, ^^^umld born a cross the marble slab tlicro of itakpiiting any sub stance warn my DoK|p> to see tbi Johnson's brother. * I believe I enraed bii only broathe through veins were swelling and gn head. Drawing a match from bis pocket, he lighted and applied it to tbe fnse, that little tyrant that gave a man an boar lo live, and killed him at the end of it—that little irresponsible terror that, leaa than rncrcifnl Providence, told a man tbe second he waa to die, if fright and honor spared him to itself! Slowly the flame crept, anake like, aronnd the twine. “In one honr,” aaid the poisoner's brother, ‘yon wilt lie in heaven or hell. I will watch with yon for half an honr, and tbe other half yon will spend alone.” He sat down Home minnte* in a chair watching the dame. Then ho arose and took tbe piece of porcelain with the murderer's mark thereon from the table and shook hia bead gloomily. ‘•I nin chemist enongh to know it ia arsenic,” he auid. “Yea, those bright, metallio eyes, a betrayer of the gnilty! Science, thon wonldst kill my brother! Thon abalt save him. Let ns seo in whose hands thon art moat powerfnl. Here ia a man who, by tby aid, bids tbe poison sprite Uprise and writes in brilliant characters a foul oonfeaaion on this piece of porcelain.— Bnt behold, O science! It is no sooner written than, by thy aid, the whole confession and thy ebosen servant aa annihilated. Let the good asked Joe eyes. I con id 'Mtrils, and great xng hot in my fore- professor use hia chemicals, the bad brother uDly asks—a little can of nitro-glyeerine.” I heard thia speech, indeod; bnt great heav ens • »t waa my eye« and not m T “ — *a-i — bnsieat then; for beneath tho table, oovaredhy tho crimson ©loin-t .ntuuxn and which I faoed, appeared tho head of a child. The hair waa rnmpled, and tho bine eyes were just opening from sleep. The intelligent forehead waa wrinkled strangely. It was my boy Billy. I waa afraid he wonld cry “papa. If be did, tbe implaeable man wonld add the mnrder of the ahild to the mnrder of the father. But uiy boy did none of this. He had, I sup pose, crept nnder the table unknown to me, and fallen asleep there. I tried to tell the little fellow to hide again, and wait for the final half honr when my tormentor wonld be gone. Wheth er he understood mo or not, aided by what he bid heard, I did not know; bnt he quickly with Irew hia littlo curly bead, first kisaing hia hand lightly at me. and then shaking his fiat at the achemer watching ao belligerently his dumb fire agents. The half honr wore alowly away. O heavens ’ what agony did I anffer! not for myself, but for my child. A light noise might discover hi* presence ; the match might rnn Its tether soon er than waa expeoted. He might be murdered or blown to atoms. . . Tho fate burned on—on. Tho half hour is nP Tho brother of tho murderer rises to go! Joy! “Commit your soul to God’s keeping, be said. “You hold the eTidenoes of my brother s guilt-nothing can save yon now With that he tnrned to take his hat from off the table covered with tbe crimson doth, beneath which hid my priceless boy. Something at tracted his attention. He held ont his hands and leaned forward. I thought be had discov ered my boy! No! ho waa lifting something in either band—the wires of the electrio battery. In another instant my boy had leaped from un der tho table, and waa turning the crank fast and furiously. Tho murderer's brother waa in tbe power of my boy. He conld not drop tire wires; ho was helpless and motionless. How my boy cried for help. Tbe old college rang again. The prisoner's brother added hia voioe to my boy a n hia agony. He begged, he beseeched—all hia nerves were racked—great wave* of galvan ism leaped, anrged, and trembled, and jarred over every sensitive nerve and fibre. Still my boy waa inflexible, and shouted and tnrned fas ter. Uoperceivod, upon the marble, in the track of tho burning fuse was a pool of inflam- able oil. In an instant a great length burned away. It wonld last jast fivo minutes and no more. "Father!” ahonied my boy, “if no assistance cornea, thia villain mnat die with ns; I daren't; let him free. Help! help! help!" Alas! I conld not answer him. Rut some one else did! Thank God! Tho fuse is burnt np! The rope ia on fire, the nitro- glycerine! The door opens, Tom Bichards on a midnight visit to tbe slefc, has heard the cry. He comprehends all, seiaes the can in hia hand— the weight descends, indeed, but not on the death-dealing oil No, down it goes through the office floor, down, down, like an evil spirit, to give back a dull, metalie echo from the atones of the cellar beneath. AYe are saved! Joe Johnson, the prisoner, was banged, but his brother remains unpunished by the law, for he stabbed himself with a knife, and thus escaped the hangman’s rope. Loose Jlnritnl Notions Denounced. a ucrrxn to thiodob* tilton bt * “wojfAs’a ADVOCATE." From the Chicago Journal, September 20.] Deab Sm • You have recently aaid, in the Golden Age: “ I hold that love, and love only, constitutes the marriage; that marriage makes tbe bond, and not the bond the marriage; and that, aa the contiaet is to love and honor, so that when the lore and honor end, the contract dissolves and tho marriage ceases.” Doubtless this ia practically true. If you fail to do what vou promise to do; it the fulfliiment cesses en tirely, end the bond U by yon utterly broken and thrown away, undoubtedly yonr crime is the death ol the contract That fact wm toler ably familiar aa far back aa the Stone Age, the savage philosophy of which yon will hardly be able to prove a golden fruit of new culture. There probably ia not a decent woman on the globe who, properly comprehending your state ment, will not confess its ugly truth. A prom ise to psy dies when the peying finally ceases. A promise to Jove and honor die* when the lov- ing and honoring finally cease. The bright honor ot the promise being gone, its veraetty gone, everything that it waa entirely gone, of course it it gone, with all which it created. And that ia yonr theory ot the Irestmant of womsn, to get rid of the marriage by getting rid ol the contract creating it, and to get rid ot the con tract by the method of dishonor! I take in band tbe case which yon commonly put, that of the man against the woman. You say, “I would no more permit the law of the land to enchain me to a woman whom I did not love than I wonld permit the same law to hand cuff mesa a slave.'' I omit part of your sentenoo, which does not affect the cise of man simply, in hia treatment of woman and wife. In what I quote jon declare that you will not permit the law of the land to hold you to your own free promise and sacred contract. Have you no logic ? U this a question of taking you by force and handcuffing you to a woman against your will ? If it is not, then there is no argument in i slave’s ft your comparison. Ia slavery the i free and honorable contract? Hit is not, then there ia not a jot of mason in the assumed analogy. No, Sir; this ia a question of yonr contract with a woman, made upon free and urgent de sire, freely and deliberately made, made with the combined seriousness and aacredness of re ligion and law, religion for the reality or tbe bond, and law for the never and form of the bond, the religion not leaning one whit for truth on tba law, nor the law intruding one hair's breadth open tbe religion, bnt both agreeing seal a oontraet the most firm and sure, as it the moat free and deliberate, known to human economy. The matter of some other relation than a mar riage of love and honor would of course raise other questions. But these I need not diacufa. If one wants a concubine, one or more, the world ia wide and hell thereof sufficiently ao- oessible. But 1 assume that yon mean, not that consciously and deliberately, but good and true marriage. Therefore, I am bound to find in your words the declaration that yon will not let tbe law of tbe land hold yoo to your own free and solemn contract. And yonr reason for re- fusing to have the form ot honor maintained by tbe law ia that you do not mean to be held to the fact ot honor. It is not that yon would have religion alone oonatrain yon to fnlfiU yonr con tract, bnt that you want a chance to violate your contract. Yon eay “love should be like religion, free from mandate by tbe civil law,” and you prophesy that “tbe next generation will gild this sentiment with fine gold. ” The sentiment has been done in brass a sufficiently long time to be familiar, and wonld not be mnch improved if tbe next generation should make of it a golden calf. I mean the sentiment of love free to vio late contracts. Yon seem to invoke religion ro fact, yon invoke nothing bnt rascality. Far yon demand freedom to violate the religion, as well sa the law, of marriage, to break yonr re ligions promise as well aa yonr legal. Yon only care to have the law lot yon alone in order that yon may leave the woman to whom religion has bonnd yon. There is bnt one ground which I need con. aider here to make plain the infamons character of tbe lioenae to violate both religion and law which yon demand for yonraelf; and that ia the reason which the woman yon wish to pat sway bad to require of yon a contract, a deeply relig ions and firmly legal oontraet, aa the basic of marriage. Y'on desired her to give yon, irrevo cably, that honor of person and of life, which is the sacrament of her existenoe. Yon wished to take from her sureties of marriage which once given are forever given. There doubtless are females diseased in body and imagination from their birth, to whom honor ia not honor nnder any constraint* of solemn promise of un changing fidelity. Bnt the average decent wo man, to whom nakedness ia not necessary to the perfect loxury of chastity, requires, and mast always require, the strongest assurance of that iroteotion for her honor which only a deeply re- igions promise of unchanging fidelity can give. If yon do not mean to offer this in seeking a woman in marriage, then yon do not mean love and honor, and propose a marriage whish ia a swindle and an outrage. Snob rascality ia bnt too possible where there ia question of winning a woman, tbe winning to enjoy is so uneb more to the average male mind than the winning to love and honor. In a state of doable guardian- ship of woman, by religion and by law, it is still a fearfully common thing for men to siwn- lato or imagine, nnder tho impulse of desire, love and honor which do not exist Hence tbe neoeesity to woman of law to give form to the fact, or tbe fancy, of love and honor, which form ber sole security in marriage. Law will forbid tbe man to let bis desires wander; it will, at least, compell him to maintain a decent form of permanent protection for woman. Tbe double contract, religions for tlie real fact, and legal for tbe outward cover and form, i* no more than woman may demand. v I have spoken only of the woman’s honor. It were enongh to speak of that. But beyond that is ber chance iu life, which, on tUo average, is terribly injured by the miscarriage ot a mar riage relation. She can give bnt once tbe fairest freshness of ber nature. Too often, if act aside, she most remain a rejected thing, perhaps helpless to live, except by methods of direct toil or uttermost shame. It must be more than a slight cause, more than an ordinary rea son, which can make ber willing to forego the form at least of love and honor, which may be decent even if it be empty. Bnt, still more, there is motherhood, adding every way to the stringency of tbe necessi ties already considered. The mother and chil dren mast live, mnA have earn and kindness for K iars onward into tbe futuro, unit depend on a marriage already existing, and on tbe hns- U (tbomiu'erVan3mfiBt i iM& , *K'S.^l K,n,,ihi,il y form at least and decency, if not in faot and blessed sweetness, to tbe man who stands be fore God and tbe law held to render these by the most solemn of contract*. Therefore woman cannot bnt ask for, yea, insist on, this double contract. Beligion alone would answer tbe pnr- joae if it wonld enchain wandering desires and iiandcoff libertine rascality. Bnt this religion alone cannot do, as sorely as law, with religion, can do it. The man who honestly means a re ligions contract, cannot- refnse to woman tbe added assaraoee of the legal oontraet If any man does not honestly mean wbat bo promises to enchain and handcuff him is utterly and ab solutely necessary, if restraint of wrong doing, ia anywhere a necessity. No other than a crimi nal can feel bia oontraet with a woman as chains and slavery. What, then, Mr. Tilton, do yon mein by yonr declaration that yon will not let the law of the land bold yon to a contract which yon wish to violate ? If yon mean criminal outrage, yon will find tbe law of tbe land able to hold yon, or at least able to brand yon as a monster. In the last issne of the Golden Age, you ar gue the matter again. Yon ray that “Love ia love—not liking, not friendliness, not kindness, not esteem, bnt love—and if a man has ceased to fed it for tbe woman who sits at the other end of hia breakfast table, which ia the most moral—or the least immoral if yon will—for him to break the chains which bind him, break them as gently and unselfishly as ho may, bnt in some arise set himself free, pnt himself in a position to live a tree life; or to wear his fet ters uncomplainingly, silently, bnt invoking meanwbilo all the lightnings of heaven to do for him what he has not the courage to do for himself ?” If this were meant for the personage of a gay rake, justifying variety “at the head of his breakfast table,” I conld understand it. Yon speak of the man only, as if the woman were not of mnch aocount in tho matter. Yon seem to bold her cheaper than men of free Uvea com- monly hold a mistress. Her honor, which you cannot give back, her wifehood, which rests on her honor, ber motherhood, which must con tinue none the less for yonr discretion, and to whiob yon owe eternal fidelity, these yon make of no soeonnt—she merely “site at the head of yonr table,” and it ia a question of leaving her to sit there alone, or of driving her out into the world. And that yon call the Age of God. It looks to me more like the time when tools were first made of bronze after the ooarae patterns of the Age of Stone. There ia not so mnch man- liness in your whimpering appeal to the moral law aa rnled the breasts of rude cave-dwellers, who wonld have broken yonr head with a stone hatchet, and served you right, if yon had thus proposed to quit yonr marital obligations. You might easily be set down as half fool and half knave in thia plea, if it were possible to see that in either character yon are all deficient. Yon ait there wishing ber dead; yon confess that what yon thus do “hat the spirit ot mur der in it.” Yon quote a church member who aaid that it was impossible for human nature not to cherish this murderous wish under such circumstances; and then yon triumphantly ask whether it is better to mnrder the woman or to pnt her away. Either may be bettor for the woman, bnt the question ia what yon are bonnd to do, not what ia worst of tbe Crimea yon ray yon intend to choose between. RAILROAD TIME TABLE.
