THE COW-BOY COSSACKS; OR, Following Fortune Through the Finnic* A Story of tho Great Wars of To-ilay, When the Grand Duke Alexis, of Russia, visited the United Ht itrs ho was captivated hy the wild life of the far western plains, ninl took a great fancy to the cow-boys, who reminded him of the famed Cossacks of Ilia own country. There were throe cow-boys of whom lie i ecame so fond that he in vited them to visit him in Russia. One of them was Jacques Dirdoville, from New Orleans; another was Robert Many, from N mtucket, and the third was Rory O'Brien, who came from Dublin when a baby. They nil had nicknames, Ilardnv.lie’s being *‘D: rodev 1 Jack,” Mucy’s ~ Buckr.ro Boh,” and O’Brien’s “ Little Bricks,” from Ids small stature and gamy qualities in a row. These cow-boys liked the Grand Duke so well that they resolved to accept his invita tion, and as soon .as they could get ready, they went to Russia, on i hearing that Alexis was In Moscow, they hastened thith er. Shakespeare's Macbeth w. s to he played at the theater in English on t o evening of their arrival, and they went to see it. General Skoboleff, the celebrated “ White General,’’ as bo was called, who was the Idol of the Russian army, was present,, and Daredevil Jack, Buckaro Bob and Little Bricks happened to sit in the parquet near him and his friend General Krapotkin. Bkobelcff, who bad been told much by the Grand Duke of bis cow-boy friends, sur mised who they were. #S '' : GENERAL PKOJiELKFP. . Pkobeleff, having fired a bullet through s mirror at an aristocratic parly, bad been de prived of his command, and knew that he had got to do some daring deed at the be ginning of the war with Turkey, then just coining on, to get himself reinstated in the royal favor. In order to succeed, he would ijeed some comrades skilled in horseman ship, and of unflinching courage, and lie at once thought that the American cow-boys would be just the men for him. He was about to speak to them, when a loud cry arose, and the scenery and stage were seen to be on fire. At once, from every quarter, arose the shrieks of women and the shouts of men. Within fifty seconds the front of the parquet was absolutely empty, save for the three Americans and the two officers, Hkobelcff and Krapotkin, who hud retained their seats with imperturbable coolness. Little Bricks said to Macy, in a quiet wav; “Reckon tliar ain’t much show' for us Buckaro, unless thar’s a door under that stage.” Then, as he glanced around at the demoralized crowd behind them, he added, with some Wonder: “Well, I swar, ef tliar ailit’t two real men at last.” . lie referred to (he two officers, who now rose slowly from their scats and came to w rds the strangera Skobeleff was us cool as a cucumber,as he held out his hand to Little Bricks, and said. In excellent English, or rather shouted into hiR ear: “ You ore n mulodijetr. —a brave fellow ! How came you here? What brouglvt you to Russia, I mean?” Little Bricks, grasping the hand extended ns if it had been that of a comrade, yelled hack his answer in the other's car: “Came to see the Grand Duke Alexis. Met him on the plaina We three helped him his first buffalo hunk Asked us to call on him, if we ever oamo to Roush a. Got on a tear and came. Here ice air. Know any thing about the Grand Duke, stranger?’* “I'iie Grand Duke is at Sebastopol You know he is in the navy, not the army You will not be able to dj any thing with loin in this war, gentlemen. You had Letter come with me. Here is my card. If wo get out of this lire alive, call at that hotel in the morn ing. Is that understood?” Little Bricks nodded, and just at that moment Krapotkin touched Skobeleff on the arm, and pointed out that, under the stage, the door by which the orchcstrq went out and in, was wide open, and looked black, bk it there was no fire, in that direction. The gesture was sufficient, and Skobeleff touched the three cow-boys successively, and pointed them to the door. Then Jacques Dnrdeville screamed into Bkobeleff’s ear: “Go and find if it leads out anywhere, and we’ll bring-some girls out that way.” Skobeleff nodded assent, and darted down to the opening. In a few moments he came back to shout in his companion’s ear: “It leads Into an open court. If there is no jam we can get out quite a number. ” Then the five men left their place of safe ty, and advancod to the back Of the shriek ing, struggling mass of humanity, that was nows urging around the foot of the b 1 ony. The fire on the stage had spread by the curtain, over the roof of the theater, and was already licking at the curtains of the boxea *• Skobeleff, surveying the scene with un diminished coolness, pointed to the great entrance do%c, widen could still, he seen through the smoke, and roared into Parde vilie's ear: “Blocked tight! Get them back!” So saying, they begau to pull at the terror- Btricken ones that they saw running to and fro in tlie rear of the crowd, and po’nted out, by gestures, the dark door under the Binge; but by the time they had escorled al out a score of ladies < >ff in this way. the fire had crept so near the stage door that the next-coiners shuddered and shrank back from the apparent danger. Skobeleff yelled in Macy’s ear: “We’ve saved all we can. Take another girl apiece and let us go i rht>e we can.” The Americans nodded silently, anil each man looked about for a woman to sava, when they heard a great cry behind them, w'hich was followed by a crash. Looking round, they saw that a part of the roof had fallen in sparks on the crowd, and that oil hopes of escape seemed to be out oft; but they heard Skobeleff say aloud, in English: “ Courage, my fr.ends. If we get out of this, you are the boys I want to have with me.” The continuation of this thrilling historical narrative of “ The Cow-Boy Cos sacks ” is given in number thirteen of the New York Ledger, the great family story pnper, which Is always full of the best and choicest reading matter, and every number of w'lilch contains something to amuse, to entertain and to instruct the reader.

Take for instance the article Hood’s Sarsa parilla. Why, it would have been almost an impossibility to have produced it in th<J olden time. In the preparation of this medicine the arti cles which investigation has proven to be inert are discarded, those vhieh have proven their merit are retained and a combination formed of the most effective medical agents of the vegetable kingdom peculiar to this medicine alone. Their active properties are secured by a process so modern p.od original that an emi nent professor in the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, whllo being shown through C. I.
