or ha would have been stopped.
About two hours after Dan had left, a
number of shadowy forms entered the val
ley from the west, and went directly to
the cave, whioh waa opened to reoeive
them. Twenty strong, swartby-looking
men with the expression of starved wolves
in their gleaming eyes, gathered about the
ire, and in their midst was Hike Delaney.
“What news boys?” ha asked as he
shook his greatooat and laid down bis
belt and arms.
“Tbeaaasanaeh is moving in from ivory

and her long, grey hair hanging ever her
wrinkled face in heavy masses.
“What! you here, Betty?" exclaimed
Hike, leaping to hia feat and conducting
the old woman to a seat by tha Are.
“Yis, I am Hike, and it’s hard work me
ould limba had gitten me here. Mow af’re
ye ax me another question, inquire if I
have a mouth on me."
Hike comprehended this hint in a mo
ment, and Betty had an of er in short time
of a doxen onpa Ailed with the liquid
deemed so neoaasary for one in her ex
hausted slate, but which has done more
to exhaust her beautiful island, and de
grade its peopte than all tha lays of Eng
land, and all this failures of all lha crops.
Smaoking bar lips aad assuring the men
standing around her that "the poetheen
warmed her ould heart,” Betty looked up
and said,
“Hike, ye want to know what brought
me here?”
"Faith; I do.”
"Than it's the same tha thing that must
make ye lave before the sun rises.”
“What's that, Betty?"
“Danger ah' death.” c :
“Sure the danger can't lnoreeae, and
the death wontiTba a bleatin' to many of
us.” " " '
“Throe for ye, Hike, bnt I notice there's
very few, no mather how ould they are,
or how sufferin' there lira, that seek
bleesin’s of that kind. But tell me qulok
where's Dan Oaspin .?"
“That's what I'd Uke to know meeel.
They say he went out two hours ago to
watoh. I wasn't hare, an' only just got in
from the lake”
Betty rose up, aod crossing herself with
a pious exolamation, she said,
‘I know where he is, an' I came here to
keep him back!”
"Where is he?”
“At the lake, at Lsrry Brehan's, an’ a
hundred aojers about the house, an’ as
many more watohin'. Ooh! he is gone
into the very danger I knm to keep him
from!”
Hike gave ventto a savage oath, bnt
the old woman stopped him.
“Tkitre's no time to waste on words,
Hike. -I heard them talkin' as I was oom-
in’ up, an' I lamed that one of yonr own
men—I didn’t get hia name—has turned
thrator for the blood money, an’ to-mor
row mornin’ he’s goin’ to guide.the aojers
to this place."
Impreoatious rolled from the Ups of the
savage men, and ories of “Who is he!”
rang out, but Betty oould not tell.
“Don't wait to talk, Hike, bnt in the
name of the Vargin get ready an’ away.
In two hours day will dawn, an',then it’ll
be too late.”
With a regularity and preoiaion that waa
wonderful, the ears was dismantled, the
still taken to pieces, oonvenient for trans
portation, every man laden down with
arms and munitions. A slight rain waa
falling as they left the oave, and they
closed the doors, so that the next who
opened them would explode the magazine
placed inside.
CHAPTSB XVI.
IK THE Uel'S MOUTH.
Dan Oaspin did not sot wisely. Was
there ever a man in love who would be
willing in after paars to submit aU the aots
connected with hia passion to the test of
reason ? The 'ancients kaew all about the
tender passion when they pictured Onpid,
its presiding deity, Mind. Dan did not
feel, however, as ho crept oantiouely down
the mountain, that he was risking his life
simply for the pleasure of meeting Kath
leen lirehan, nor for the purpose of keep
ing hie promise to her, but Azttered him
self with the belief that he was doing a
duty, that he ought as soon as possible to
leave bis praqeyt opmpsuioua „nd the land
of his birth, in order to ratoh Amerioa,
where he would have security and the no
blest iaoeniiyti to labor. This wus the
motive, he thought, that nerved him, but
be would have faced ten thonsand deaths
to see her, even if there had been no plan
made by the woman he loved for his es
cape.
Ouce he stopped and withdrew into the
shadow of a rock to let, what seemed to
be, an old woman pass him. He was too
suapioioua then to trust to appearances,
else he would have met old Betty, and so
saved himself aud all concerned, the trou
ble into whioh he was blindly rushing.
Down to the shore of the lake, by a
route that in daylight it would seem only
e hare oonld pees, end Dan's heart throb
bed with emotion and exertion, as in the
indistinct light he found himself wi'hin a
few hundred yards of Larry Brehan’s cot
tage. He thought there might be troops
•U-re, but there was no Are, no sound to
indioate the fact.
Taking off his ehoes and fastening them
to his belt, he crawled slowly aud with
breathless caution in the direction of the
house. He bad not proceeded far, when
he sew a figure moving back and forth
along the road, and he knew there wes a
eoldier on guard; nearer still and the stiff
figures increased. He got through the
hedge about the garden, and he saw near
the gate a number of tents. It was too
late to withdraw, though for the moment
he wished himself back in the mountains.
He crept on oantionsly to the beck of the
eo'tage, and, at last, he stood nnder the
vine-wreathed window that marked Kath
leen's room. The presence of the soldiers
led him to believe she oonld not meet him
at the appointed plaoe, and he consoled
himself by whispering, “Poor girl, no mat
ter where she is at this blessed minute,
she's thinHn’ of me.”
“Yes, Dan, ehe'e thinking of yon,” came
book like the echo of his breathing, and
the next moment he felt her hand on bis
arm, and he waa drawn into the shelter
of a rose bush that shot np to the thatch,
ed eaves.
“Ob, Dsn, why did ye come to break
my heart,” she asked.
“Didn’t ye ax me, mavourneen, an'
didn’t I promise ?”
“Yes, Dan; but sinsa tha danger is
around us, an' I sint ye word, for my sake,
to stay away, an' I tould ye about the
American ship in Oalway.”
“Thin I'll take an oath, Kathleen I
didn't gel the word. Who did ye sind it
by?"
I Betty.'
eetyr?
“Yes. She knew what I wanted, an'
she went np the mountain to stop ye.”
“Then, faith, the ould woman miehed
me, or I miahed her. It don't mather
mnoh, as long as we didn't meet; but tell
me, Alahna, what she’d have tould me if
I taw her."
“She would have tonld ye not to come
down, for there is danger in every foot of
the sod by the lake, an' in every grain of
sand on its shore. She would have tould
ye that Dinny Keely has gone to Galway
to ask the Amerioau captain, whose ship
sails in in tin days, if he’d plok ye up oat-
aide the bay, providin’ I tint him the
money for yer passage, an’ sure she’d
have tould ye that ye most meet him, an’
that whin ye got to the bright land aoroas
the say ye’d write to me an' tell me ye
were well, an’ safe, an' thin, Dan, I tould
bar to make yer heart aisy about yar fath
er an’ mother, for as long as we had a bit
an' a sap, an' a roof above our beads, they
wouldn’t want.”
“Heaven bless the grass on whioh ye
walk, Kathleen. Sure it's an angel the
Vargin sint to Larry Brehan’s bonne the
day ye were born. Bnt I'll lava, darlin’,
at onoe. I can get back to the mountain
to-day, an’ no one the wiser.”
“Take this, Dan, an' may the saints
guard ye.” She slipped a parse into his
hand, and then she felt his strong arms
about her, and his kisses showered on her
beautiful face.
A moment of rapture and throbbing
pain at the thought of the separation that
might last forever. He heard nothing but
the beating of his own heart at that mo
ment. Not so with Kathleen; lights
before her eyes, and she heard
hurried footsteps and loud commands.
“Fly, Dan! Fly," she cried.
Already the torches lit up the pfihee
where they stood, and they were surround
ed by a file of soldiers, in the oentre of
whom was Captain Sore, his face in the
light of the Aamblesux, yellow with rage.
“Fire!” rang ont the order.
Dan’s pistols were out, and as the sol
diers obeyed the order, he sprang at Gore,
who went down before him, and then,
thongh bleeding from a number of wounds,
he dashed through the lines, and with the
spaed of the wind he harried away in the
direction of Galway.
It was well he oould not look back; had
he done so, he would have seen a group
of soldiers standing above Kathleen Bre-
han, watching the distracted father and
mother, who tried to kiss her back to life,
while Dr. Grant endeavored to staunch
the red tide fiowing from her white throat.
CHAPTEB XVII.
UNUEKTAIM.
Kathleen Brehan, bleedicg and unoon-
soions, was carried into the house where
the distracted family, aroused by the fir
ing, were gathered.
“Oh, Doohter, will she die ?’* asked the
heart-broken mother, as she poshed back
the damp masses of hair from Kathleen’s
brow and kissed her again and again.,
“Don’t think she’ll die now. No telling,
thongh. Keep baek and let me get the
bleedin’ stopped.”
The Dootor had been drinking brandy
freely daring the evening, and though his
nerves were anything but steady, his
mind aeeme J to have been improved by
the libations, and ho traoed the course of
the ball, which he extracted and held up,
after arresting the bleeding.
“Too small for a musket,"said the Doc
tor, torning the missile around in his fin
gers.
“That is one of the Oaptain's pistol
balls,” exclaimed Sullivan, who ought to
know, for he had loaded the Oaptain's
pistol before they started.
“Qet out of here,” cried the Dootor to
the men who had gathered in the room
and about the doors. “The lass will die
for want of air, not for want of blood, if
ye don’t leave.”
Captain Oore entered the room as the
Dootor spoke, and the men at once with
drew.
“She must be laid on a bed an' kept
quiet,” said the Dootor, after he Lad
dressed the purple wound, and assumed
an attitude as if he were going to carry
her to a coach himself. Larry Brehan
•aw the movement and walking up he
poshed Grant aaide, and then lifting bis
daughter np gently in his urms, he oarried
her into her little white room, and laid
her softly on the white spread.
The Doctor followed to see that her
position was comfortable, snd then re
turned to the tent, where Captain Gore
awaited him.
“What! wounded, Captain ?” asked the
Dootor ss he saw the blood trickliug from
the Captain’s forehead.
“Yes, oat in the head with a bludgeon.
Go on and tell mo how this was as you
dress my wound. ”
“Weel, you shot the Ians, an' the laddy
shot you.”
“Who do yon mean ?*’
“Dan Oaspin.”
“Dan Oaspin ! Why, the fellow had a
grey besrj.”
“I know it, Captain, for I got the b*ard
and wig.” And so saying the Dootor
pulled from his pocket the hirsute dis
guise whioh Dan Gaapiu had worn.
“Is the fellow captured ?”
“Not yet, but he's wounded an' the men
are after him. He can’t last long.”
“I hope they will kill the dog.”
“They’ll have to do it, Captain, before
they take him.”
“How is the girl ? Curse it, she saw my
pistol at I drew it on this rascal, and she
leaped in front of it.
“That’s evident, Captain, for the ball
•truck her throat.”
“Will she live ?”
“It's hard to tell.”
“But what do you think ?”
“Ye want my candid opinion ?”
“Yes, I do.”
“Well, I’ll g’ve it to ye. I think she’ll
die af’re forty-eight boors.”
Gore gave vent to a torrent of oaths,
and was only calmed down by the Dootor,
who assured him “If he did ns keep oool
he might e’en himsel gsng to the land for
whioh the lassie was bound.”
Dan Gaepin never looked bade, bat
having passed the line by tearing down
Uka reeds the men who stood in hia path,
he kept up the shore of the Uke, con
scious that he wm, wounded and fleeing,
and with presence of mind enough to
know that hia strength was growing leu
esoh moment, and th~t the soldiers, like
hounds on the trsok of a wounded bare?
were behind him—far behind, it is true,
but they were fresh end uninjured; he
wearied and weak. Up the Bands, mark
ing their white surface with his blood,
till at length he reached a point where
the mountain boldly shot into the Lake,
and rose before him an impauible bar
rier. He stopped before this obstacle?
but only for an instant. He heard the
quick steps and heavy panting behind
him, theu he looked at the mountain, and
taming to the Lake he plunged in, and
with rapid strides he tried to gain the
distant point. He grew weaker at every
stroke. He tried to reaoh the bottom
with his feet, but ho was beyond his
depth. He felt a smothering sensation,
the waters cloud above him, and Dan
Gaapin became dead to the world and its
oaree.

SCIENTIFIC NOTES.
—As a general rale, the stomachs of
shad wheu taken in nets during their
spring migration very rarely contain food
of any kind, and it is therefore somewhat
diifionlt to determine of what their suste
nance consists. On the 11th of April,
howevor, Mr. Eltoood R. Norny, of Phila
delphia, while attending hia shad aud bass
fishery at the head of Delaware Bay, near
Fort Penn, notioed that ouo of the shad
was unusually distended, and on opening
it found the stomach crammed to reple
tion with a small crustacean, whioh from
his description is probably a aperies of
Mysis. Dr. Leidy also records an in
stance where a shad taken in Delaware
Bay in the fall had several fish in its
stomach.
—The first annual report of the New
Jersey State Board of Agriculture, pre-
S ired under the direotiou of Professor
corge H. Gook, has just been published,
and embraces several papers of consider
able interest. Its principal feature con
sists iu an article by the secretary npou
the soils of New Jersey, with reference
to their distribution and chemioai com po
aition, and the weight of noil compared
with that taken out of it by the crops.
There are also numerous pipers upon
fertilizers (some of them of much value),
together with articles on wheat-raising,
ou forest fires, etc. The whole volume
is well worth the attention of both the
scientific and practical agriculturist.
—The fourth part of Tryon’s American
Marine Contlidlogy has ru tde its appear
ance, with eight colored plates, and em
bracing the family of the ChitonuUc, of
whioh six species are indicated, the orders
Ophlhobranchiata and Pteropoda, the
commencement of the class Acephala, be
ginning with the Pholadidm. The work
was commenced esrly in 1878, and if it be
oonfined to the five or six parts originally
proposed, will soon be brought to a com
pletion.
—A novelty in legislation consists in
the recent introduction into Congress of
a bill proposing to grant the State of Min
nesota 200,000 acres of land within its
limits, the proceeds of whioh shall be kept
as a perpetual fund, the iuterest to be ap
plied to the support, maintenance, and
equipment of an astronomical observatory
and school of mines at St. Anthony’s Falls
in connection with the Minnesota State
University. A special stipulation in this
proposed sot is that the schools shall be
free of ehsrge to all students.
—The question in regard to the suc
cess of the experiment of transplanting
salmon to Tasmania is apparently set at
rest by the announcement of the capture
on tha 80th of Deoember last of a gen
uine grilse, for which the government re
ward of twenty ponnds sterling has been
E tid, and the specimen foiwnrded to
ogland. For maoy years past large fish
have been seen leaping iu the Derwent
River, but no one was able to catch them ;
and although believed to be salmon, the
faot was not proved by more pos tive evi
dence.
The fish referred to weighed severnl
pounds, and if a salmon must have been
hatched in the river, as it iB many years
■inoe any eggs were imported into Tas
mania. There now appears to be little
doubt that the deceudants of eggs of
salmon transported from England have
•dually bred in these watets, showing
that the flsb have a greater adaptability to
climate than has been anticipated, the
contrast in point of temperature in the
surrounding seas being very decided.
We have in this muoh encouragement for
the measures taken to multiply salmon iu
regions of the United States where they
have never grown naturally.
It is mnoh to be desired that in any
other experiments of the transfer of sal
mon to Australia the California flah be
tried, not only on account of the greater
certainty of their safe arrival, but from
their better adaptability to the new lo
cality.
The Howl hern Gnlf Stream.
The Herald, of Monday, says : From
the latest notes of the Challenger Expedi
tion, now in tbe Southern Hemisphere, it
appears that the thermal observations
have settled another great problem of
Antarotio geography. The outflow of a
g reat ocean current from the South Indian
cean has long been asaerted, and even
recently as stoutly denied by the physical
geographers of Europe. The most recent
data forwarded by the Challenger put this
matter at rest as definitely as the muob-
talked-of Wilkes’ Antarctic Continent,
discussed in Lieutenant llayne’s letter,
published in the Herald.
Tho Challenger explorers state in their
latest reports published in the Londou
Times, that, after leaving the Capo of
Good Hope they entered the Agulhas cur
rent, and added: “The breadth of this
stream was about two hundred and fifty
miles, and it was found to affect the tern*
peratureof the sea to the depth of four
hundred fathoms.” We have here
the discovered dimensions of a mighty
“river in the ocean,” compared with
which the Gulf stream of the Atlantic is
bnt a rill. Tbe sectional measurements
of the Gulf Stream at the Florida Pass do
not exceed thirty miles in breadth and
800 fathoms in depth, so that the
Agulhas current, aa now gauged by
the Challenger, is nearly ten times as
large. The temperature of the two
oceanic ht reams is about the aaiue*, and
the velocity of the Agulhas current is
not less than that of the mighty outflow
from the Mexican Gnlf. As the former
passes tbe port of Natal, it tears violently
at the shore—as tbe Mississippi when in
flood—cutting through headlands, carry
ing away small islands and oreating others
with the mod it deposits.
This broad and sweeping band of
•nper-beated water represents tbe collec
tive foroe of tbe southeast trade winds
end northeast monsoons, which blow the
•teaming water of tha tropical Indian
Ooaan upon tbe East African ooaat,
whence its only outlet is southward, along
the Mozambique channel.
GEORGIA ANECDOTE!*.
We onil the two following, which are
good enough to be true, if they are not,
frqm the Atlanta oorreBpondonoe of the
Augusta Chronicle ;
Ljcurank—Judge 8 , or Musooou.
dodge Loohrane was, this afternoon, the
centre of a group of gentlemen from
different parts of the 8tate, who were
laughing at his aneodotes and witticisms.
After awhile one of the party made bold
to inquire of the Judge in regard to hie
Congressional prospects. “Well,” said the
Judge, “I will answer your inquiries by
narrating an anecdote of old JudgeS ,
of Muscogee, a notorious wsg and eccen
tric magistrate of his day. Judge 8 ,
in company with a number of
the most influential oitizens of his
community, met at the District Court
ground oue day to determine whom they
would support for Jnstioe of the Peace
of their Militia Distriot. When these
•olona of the distriot had assembled
Judge 8 arose and said: “Gentle
men, we have met here to determine np
ou some suitable person to ran for Magis
trate of this District, and, to make a long
matter short, I think I am about the ouly
person in the district fully prepared and
qualified to discharge the duties of this
olHee, and I hereby declare this meeting
adjourned tine die.” And, said Judge
Loohrane, he was eleoted without opposi
tion.
“Well,” aaid a bystander, “we are al
lowed to infer that you intend we shall
apply this story to yourself.”
“Ah,” said Judge Loohrane, with a sig
nificant smile, I’m telling aneodotes now. ”
Anecdote of Judob Hopkins. —- John
T. Hopkins, Judge of the Superior Court
of the Atlanta Circuit, has the reputation
of being ono of the severest and most
rigorous Judges on tbe Judicial bench iu
Georgia. The following anecdote of him
illustrates not only liia rigor and severity,
bnt his ready discernment of justice. A
negro had been found guilty of burglary
in the night time, and had beeu sum
moned before the Court to hear hit* sen
tence pronounced. The Judge delivered
a short lecture to the culprit, and con
cluded by sentencing him to five yearn in
the penitentiary, when the negro’s coun
sel interposed, saying: “May it please
your Honor, I wish to intercede aud ask
mercy for the prisoner. I learn that lie
he has suffered muoh abuse during his re
cent confinement in jail, haviug been se
verely whipped on sev< ral occasions, aud
——,” Judge Hopkins: “Mr. Sheriff, you
will have the jailer summoned before ine
immediately.”
The jailer promptly made his appear
ance in the greatest alarm, fearful that
the irate Judge would inflict some terrible
punishment as a penalty for his cruel
treatment of the prisoner At the bar.
Judge Hopkins—“Mr. Jailer, what has
been the behavior aud character of the
prisoner during his confinement iu jail?”
Jailer—“May it please your honor, be
has been rather impudent aud insubordi
nate.”
Judge Hopkins—“Have yon evor whip
ped the prisoner?”
Jailer—“Yes, sir.”
Judge Hopkins—“How often ?”
Jailer—“Three times, I believe, sir.”
Judge Hopkins (addressing hia remarks
to the prisoner)—“ I add ten additional
years to your confinement. I sentence
yon to fif teen yearn' imprisonment in the
penitentiary.”
It is said that the negro's lawyer has
never yet been able to see the justice of
that decision.
—It seems impossible to exaggerate tbe
horrors of nitro glycerine. A man oamed
Deyo, at Patterson’s Landing, on Lnke
Champlain, picked np an old tin can last
week, and, taking it on a boat where he
was employed, called his wife to assist
him while, with a chisel, he ent a holo in
the tin, proposing to use it as a “collar”
for a stove pipe bole. He notioed that
the can appeared to be greasy, bnt gave
it little thought. He had Htrurk seven.1
blows when a fearful cxplosiou occur red.
The greasy substance ou the tin proved to
be uitro-glycerine. Mrs. Deyo was blown
into the lake, while Deyo himself whs
blown towards the stern of the boat.
Their injuries were terrible, the flesh in
places being stripped from tbe bones, snd
their recovery is doubtful.

Prominent Incidents
History of Columbus
From its First Settlement in 1827, to the
Wilson Jlaid, in 1805, compiled by John
II. Martin.
The undersigned proposes to publish in a
volume of 150 or more pages, a work under
the above title, covering the period from the
selection qf the locality for a “ trading town,”
in 1827, to the capture and partial destruction
of the city by the Wilson Haul, in 18G5.
The incidents will be derived mainly from its
newspapers, which will be gleaned for this
purpose with much care. It is brlicvcd that
most of our citizens would like to have such
incidents in this compact and convenient form,
and will encourage the undertaking to the
extent of the small amount asked for the work
Each chapter will contain short biographi
cal sketches or notices of the principal citizens
mentioned in it, who have since die*l. The
volume will also embrace full information
concerning the churches, factories, ii'C., now
existing.
We do not propose to publish this compila
tion with a view to making money, as the
small price asked for it will show. Hut at
the same tone we do not want to lose money
by its publication, and therefore we wish to
limit the number cf copies printed to the de
mand for the work. With this object in view,
we issue this prospectus, inviting those who
desire copies of the volume to send in their
names.
The price will be one dollar per copy for
a pamphlet bound volume, printed on paper
Uke the specimen sheet issued. A small
number of copies will also be issued on a su
perior article of paper for $ l 80 per copy.
Payable when the work is delivered, which
will be some time next Fall.
