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 point, but if be don't thravel fash ter than he has to-day, be me aowl, the summer 'll be over af're be oomes,” answered one of tha seen. "DM you And out bow many there are?" "Ho, faith, bnt if they don't think they teas enough, they know well where to get mosef bad luck to them 1" "Where is Dan?" "■• went out awhile ago to see how thUEliraa." i sure he didn't go down to the , I'm not, Hike, but I’m ante Dan , an' no man in hia place, if he i of brains, would go runnin' I thrap loike that, jiat to see the girl i looked annoyed, and sanding oos i seen out to And Dan, he aat down i hisiaroe companions from the ooaat, I ate heartily of tha meal aet before , and which they washed down by l of mountain dew. iwho had bean 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. [TO UK CONTINUED. J 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. —Horace Greeloy's daughters still live at Ohappaqua. —Prinoo Bismarck is slowly recovering health on his estates at Vorsin. —Brooks and Baxter belong to tbe same Methodist church in Little Buck. —Liszt has gone to Rome, where he intends remaining for some months.

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. THOS. GILBERT. Jday 12,1874.
