The Libby Murder Trial—Arrest ol a Crew ol Seamen Who Failed t:> Serve According to Agree ment— Hardship* at Sea—Arrest. Portland, Jan. 27. The case of State vs. Thomas J. Libby,for the shooting of Lidia S. Snow, came before Judge Bonney in the superior court, Tuesday, at 1! P. M. The trial is likely to prove one of the most interesting ever held in Maine. In September, an incident was found against Libby but as no chances for his re covery were apparent then, his trial was de ferred until now. Libby on being arraigned pleaded not guilty. Libby’s recovery is a marvel in medical history. Physicians are of the opinion that the bullet is still in his brain, that it passed from one side to the other, rebounded and lodged near tile base. Whenever he moves hi* head suddenly, lie experiences a shock something like that pro duced by electricity, lie seems to be in good health now; hi* mind is clear, but tie remem bers nothing of the tragedy. Attorney Gen eral Baker for State; A. K. Moulton and S. C. Andrews for Libby. The jury will be im panelled today. The government witnesses will be sworn Wednesday. The jury on the Libby case being impan elled. a great crowd thronged the cotridors to tile court. The prisoner was brought in by the side entrance. The circumstances of the murder were that Libby, who was proprietor of the West Point j Hotel, had come to the city Sept. 4th, and was drinking heavily. Here lie met Lydia S. Snow, who had been table girl at his hotel i but hail been discharged by his wife from I jealousy. With her he stopped at City Hotel, going very late at night and passing her otl' j as his w ife. During the night and ill the morning he called for a drink, anil when the] night clerk went to his room in the morning, drove him out with a pistol. The girl did not seem much alarmed, hut remarked to the clerk that he had better take the pistol away. Shortly after, pistol shuts were heard and the girl was found dead and Libby wounded se verely in the head. Libbv was taken to jail and after a long illness, has recovered to apparently good health. His counsel w ill plead insanity produced by hard drink. For tv special jurors were summoned and there were sixteen challenges by the defence. At torney General 1). Baker of Augusta, and County Attorney (Jen. ,V1. Seniors conduct the prosecution; Hon. S. C. Andrews and A. F. Moulton of Portland, for the defence. Tomorrow forenoon the jury will view the locality of the murder. Monday night,Deputy Marshal H. D. Mar ble arrested at Bath. Kieliard Began, Bil liard Davii. dames Harvey, John Faley and W.

Tuesday, and claim that they were told that seven men were to he shipped, but finding I onlv five men were to constitute the crew., they refused to do duty, claiming that five men could not work the bark in a satisfactory manner. They were held in sums of 83011! each, and failing to furnish hail were com- nutted to Portland jail 'Hie crew of the schooner M. from Georges, tells a story ot hardship and suffering. Tliev laid at anchor for hours ex pecting to be swept into the trough of the sea momentarily, and the great w aves broke over the decks and drenched the seamen and their clothes stiffened in the freezing air. Ten thousand haddocks were carried overboard. Several other vessels were visible which could barely endure the storm. Had the ves sel not been staunch it must have been dash ed to pieces. The oldest sailor says “If it blew at the rate of 108 miles an hour on Mt. I Washington, I would like to know what it is like where we were.” The crew are nearly worn out but are able to do duty. KeT. I!. C. Munson took out no warrants j today. He left for Augusta, this noon, and will appear before the temperance committee at the legislature, which meets for a public hearing tonight. Phillip Chayer, arrested by Deputy Sheriff Chute, at Saecarappa, Saturday, for the lar ceny of $200 trom Mr. Joseph St. Claire, was brought before Judge Gould of Portland, Tuesday morning, and bound over to the Grand Jury in the sum of $00.

Ol h West Leeds Man From a Frightful Death. Leeds, Jan. 27. A. L. House, son of B. I). House, of W. Leeds, while hauling a load of railroad sleep ers, with a pair of horses Mondav, was thrown from the load, his feet striking upon the pole. He fell hack his head going under the rol lers, thus being dragged more than two rods, until Mr. Rideout, who was behind him with another team, jumped off ran and caught the the horses within four feet of a large knoll of frozen ground that would have torn his head from his body. Mr. R. with a sidestake. lifted the sled, although heapily loaded, using his foot for a blocking, and drew him out. He was insensible, but came to himselfwhile Mr. R. was getting his team ready to carry him home. His head, face and neck were badly injured, but his physician thinks there are no internal injuries. This accident was occasioned bv the load sliding forward, (it not being bound) when going down a pitch in the road. Teamers can’t be too careful about binding their loads. FROM BATH.

Lincoln, corner of North and Front streets, I was entered, Monday evening, by burglars ami every door in the house was broken open and the house was completely ransacked. The house was not occupied, but the house hold goods had not been removed. Officer Ilarriman discovered the house had been broken into, by seeing the back door open. He immediately informed George Lincoln, and a search was made for the burglars, but without success. Two sisters of Cipt. Lin- coin, who live in the house, were awav in Massachusetts. It is not known whether anything was stolen. Grace church was, Tuesday morning, the scene of a joyous and memorable occasion, by the marriage of Miss Ada Louise Harnden, daughter of Mrs. Affie II.

The Quebec Snow Shoe Club contingent arrived this morning Tiie mayor has issued a proclamation calling on the citizens to observe Thursday as a hol iday. Erastus Wyman and a party ot New Yorkers and New Englanders arrived today. The second day of the carnival proved even brighter and more inspiriting than the first The ice palace showed to perfection, the final touches having been put to the structure, and the poles and scaffolding having been taken away. The carnival at Victoria rink tonight, was a brilliant affair. Governor General and I.ady Landsdown arrived about 8.15. The skaters formed into double line through which their excellences passed. The torchlight procession from the island took place between 8 and o’clock. THE NORTH POLE FOUND In the Imagination ot Chief Engineer Melville. Philadelphia, l’a., Jan. 27. Thief Engineer Melville, of Arctic f»me, issued today an address to the American pub lic, wherein he expresses his belief that the time is now ripe for making a final and suc cessful voyage to the North Pole. The route he advocates is by way of Franz Josf, and he declares it to be an entirely sate and feasible one. It would be, he thinks, an actual sav ing of life to make the attempt now before the knowledge born of experience expires, and he trusts that there is some man in America who will rise to the occasion and from his abundance supply the paltry sum required to fit an Arctic expedition. This sum he places at $8(yW0 providing a trans port ship is only chartered, or $130,000 if it be retained, which hs asserts is not neces sary. He will write, he says, the name of his'patron across the face of the polar conti nent. He has volunteers for ev«-ry position connected with the proposed enterprise. FORTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS. Second Session. SES ITE. Washington. Jan. 27. Mr. Harris, from the committee on military affairs, reported favorably a joint resolution authorizing the loan of flags and bunting to the district committee on inauguration cere monies. It was read three times and passed. Mr. M.ller. from the committee on finance, reported favorably, with amendments, the House bill for the retirement and re-coinage of the trade dollar. The Senate at 1 P. M. went into executive session. At 4.OS P. M. the doors were considered opened so far as to allow of the presentation by Mr. Hale of the conference report on the naval appropriation bill. Mr. Hale said the bill had been stripped of all new legislation, and it was an itemized appropriation bill, under which the conduct of the navy department, its course of action and legislation under which it existed, were not changed. The conference report was adopted. The exteutive business was again resumed and continued until 5.35, w hen the Senate adjourned. HOUSE. Mr, White of Kentucky, rising to correct the journal, demanded that the joint resolu iion introduced bv him yesterday, abolishing the office of commissioner of internal rev enue. be read. The speaker stated that the journal was correct and that it was not competent for the gentleman to demand the reading of the reso lution. Mr White then complained that the text of the resolution was not printed in the Record, and the speaker replied that he had informed the official reporters that, under the rules, the resolution should not b.j printed. The District of Columbia appropriation bill was taken up and passed. The morning hour having been dispensed with, Mr. White, rising to a qu*. »tion of priv ilege, offered a resolulion declaring that it whs unjust to the official reporters of the House for the speaker to be allowed to revise their notes in accordance with his views of the rules of propriety. Mr. Springer of Illinois made a point that the resolution did rot embody any question of privilege. Mr. White, in the argument on the point, said that certain sentences of the reporters’ notes had been stricken out by the speaker. He whs not afraid to stand before his consti-! tuency or his God, but he would bo afraid to stand before the scrutiny of the speaker. [Laughter.] **I thank (rod,” continued he, “that I am not responsible to this democratic House for any conviction I have of right or wrong, and still more, that I am not respon sible to this creature who is made speaker of the House. [Hisses.] 1 mean it in no dis respect to the speaker Mr. Springer interrupted and said that the gentleman was not speaking to a point of order. He intended that the rules of the House should be enforced. Mr. White said “The question of order is whether members on the floor representing free constituencies should have the right to have their remarks taken down correctly.” The speaker said that the gentleman must take his seat or must proceed in order to discuss the question. Mr. White—“I am stating the facts.” Speaker—“A question of facts?” Mr. White—“It is a question whether the resolution presents the question of privilege Continuing, Mr. White said that to a gen tleman like the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Springer) he could not present a question of or ier in such a form a* to be acceptable to his extraordinary intelligence.” Mr. White was several times interrupted, and finally said: “If this continues I might as well stop.” •*Better.” suggested Mr. Blackburn. “It is not for my colleague to say whether I had better stop or nor,” replied Mr. White. *1 trust I am not responsible for anything which emanated from such a quarter,” re torted Mr Blackburn. “It does not rest with that side of the House represented by my colleague to tell me what I bad better do,” replied Mr. White. The speaker laid before the House a com munication from Hon. Jonathan Chaco, an nouncing his resignation as representative from Rhode salami: laid on the table. The House then at 1 25 went into commit tee «>f the whole on the army appropriation bill After a brief general debate the bill was rfc*an to the treaty, the chi* f issue in debate being the Olavton-BulwcT treaty and the advisa bility of immediate action on the Nicaraguan treaty. At 2 o’clock Tuesday morning four drunken men broke into the postoffice at Huntington Ind., for the purpose of robbery. Th**y were confronted by Max Baumgartner, the night marshal, who shot one of them through tin body, killing him instantly. One of the burglars shot Baumgartner in the hack. His recovery is doubtful. The burglars then escaped, leaving their dead comrade behind them. The House committee on loreign affairs Tuesday postponed until Friday the consider ation of the the resolution referred Monday, calling on the secretary of state for informa tion as to whether anv citizen of the United States participated directly or indirectly in bringing about the recent explosions in Lon don. There is a general opinion that there was no occasion to begin an investigation Members sav that the resolution as referred will not he reported hack to the House. One of a different character, however, may be reported _ StAte News. Penobscot. Mr C R. Brown of Springfield has pur chased the celebrated stallion 4 Mambrino Lance” of Geo. .Sweetser of Hampden. The price paid wi« about $1000. The members of the Bangor Historical Society are hopeful that the Legislature will make an appropriation to preserve the Fort Kent block-house. It is an object of ranch historical interest in that vicinity, and a small appropriation would be sufficient to preserve it for many years. A good deal of opposition is manifested among Bangor citizens to the project of bridging Moosehead Lake in the interest of the Megan tic R. K. Cumberland. A man at Cumberland Mills attempted to thaw out his water pipe by winding it with paper saturated with kerosene and burning the paper. Result—the house on fire, an ex cited crowd to extinguish it, a badlv fright ened, family and the water pipe in statu quo, says the Sunday Times. A guest at the Preble House. Portland, re tired. after blowing out the gas. The night clerk smelled the gas and attempted to wake the man, but he was too far gone, so a bov was hoisted up through the transom, who rescued the man from his perilous position. The man was from Boston. Postmaster Barker of Portland has in his possession an old postmaster’s commission, made out to Samuel Freeman. Eaq., of Fal mouth. The document is dated October. 1775, and signed by Beniamin Franklin, Postmaster General. There were 1200 tons of cabbages raised in Cape Elizabeth this season. Tile town pro duces 90 per cent of the whole iabbage crop ot Maine. The cabbages are shipped to all points in the State, and the large surplus is disposed of chiefly in Rhode Island and Penn sylvania. Sagadahoc. The five sailors forming the crew of tile bark Florence, just loaded at Woolwich with ice for Rarbadoea. skipped from their vessel Saturday. They were captured after some search, but declined to make the voyage in the vessel. In the suit brought by the widow of E. S Chase of Richmond, killed two years ago bv a Maine Central train, a new trial has been granted. The suit was first tried in Hath in 188o, when a verdict of $3,708.28 was given for the plaintiff. Exceptions were taken bv the defendant’s counsel, and the law court has just allowed them, and granted a new trial. At Lahgk. Everybody knows the danger from gales, j currents, rocks and lightning which mariners encounter, but probably tew appreciate the perils of collision with floating wrecks. The Pilot Chart of the North Atlantic tor Janus- I rv contains representations of such of these abandoned hulks as have lately been aeon. and it is surprising how many of them are now in the paths of vessels. The nearest one is the wreck of the A. O. Goss, off’ the coast of Maine, but four other hulks are floating along the Now England coast, two being sunk and two capsized. It is a wonder that more disasters than are reported do not occur through these dangerous obstacles. The Comptroller of the Currency Saturday extended the corporate existence of the Peo ple's National Bank of Waterville and the Sandy River National Hank of Farmington, to Jan. 28, 1905. The pain and misery suffered by tho«e who are afflicted with dyspepsia are indescribable. The distress of the body is equalled or sur passed by the confusion and tortures of the mind, thus making its victims suffer double affliction. The relief that is given bv Hood’s Sarsaparilla lus caused thousands to he thank ful for this great medicine. It dispels the causes of dyspepsia, ami tones up the diges tive organs.

He was a vraH,...* Botrdoln College, 1841. and Harvard Medical school, 1850, finishing his education for his chowim i'i™ In Europe, and he was known as the talented physician who was sun- to be called in to all critic ...2 where medical skill was required.

Has*. Ex-Mayor of Bangor, says: Some two years since I was afflicted with Dyspepsia in Its worst form. I consulted the b known physicians in this section, In Boston, and in New York, without any beneficial results. About one year ago I began to use Brown’s Sarsaparilla, and from that time I have continued to improve I have back to my usual weight, having gained since I began to ase Brown's Sarsaparilla, over34 pounds 1 sider Brown’s .Sarsaparilla tile best remedy for Indigestion i have ever used. j JJAS, Strong Statement Irom a Well-Known Hailroad Man. Everyone knows Wm. A. Cromwell, the General Eastern Passenger Agent of the Lake Shore and .Michigan Southern Railroad. Mr. Cromwell is a very active man, living most of hts time on railroad train, I Naturally he sometimes finds hlmselt out of condidlon, ard says that when in need of any raedidn, always taken Brown's Sarsaparilla. “I consider it,” says Mr. Cromwell, -the best thing for indigestion and troubles with th blood or kidneys that has ever come to my notice, and to railroad men who Irom the very nature of their occupation, are ea«y subjects to Kidney and Liver troubles, I would say you will find a powerful friend in Brown’s Sarsaparilla.” 1 J From a Well-Known Clergyman. Rev. Theo. II. Gerrish is pastor o( the l’iae St. M. E church in Bangor. Mr. Gerrish is also the author of the “Blue and the Gray,” and “Reminiscences of the War." Mr. Gerrish served as a private during the war, aud has a record gathered on various battle fields which few mvn made. Following hu double v-ork of pastor and author, Mr. Gerrish came to be in ill health, aud, so seilous was his case that he gave up the ministry fora time. A member of his Iamily became afflicted about this time with a serious Kidney trouble, and this additional burden was thrown upon Mr Gerrish. Physicians were employed many temedies tried, and everything that fond friends could suggest was done. Little or no benefit wi deriv. d Irom these, and hope had almost given way to despair when Brown's Sarsaparilla was recommend ed. It was tiled, the patient recovered, and is now in good healih. Mr. Gerrish Is opposed gruenllv speaking, to the use of his name in connection with a patent medicine, but so much benefit has been de’ rived from Brown’s Sarsaparilla that he freely cousents to its use here. Brown's Sarsaparilla is sold by all druggists at fil.00; fi far $'u0. Joint Ntanding Committer*. Judiciary.—Messrs.

Hearing Before the Committee La.* Even

There was a hearing before the commit tee on temperance last evening in Repres entative,’ Hall a. to the expediency Tl1 ditional temperance legislation. There was aroimd ,1™ gath,'rin* o{ legislators around the committee’s table, and the gal ler.es were occupied by a sprinkling of,' spectatora. Gen. Neal Dow of Portland wa, the first speaker. He cited the enactment of the Maine liquor law in 18.54 and compared the condition of the cities and towns with that of today and presented to the committee several amendments to the liquor law the chief provisions of which are as follows f, r™,ta Pelr8°n Wh°' after he receives in !>on‘hat a bnilding which he lets is used for the sale of liquor, continues to let tor the same purpose, shall be heavily fined arte receive a term of imprisonment; that the first offence for illegal sale shall he pun ished by a flue of *200 and six months in jail; that the sentries at the liquor saloons be made parties in the crime; that a dump or appliance for disposing of liquor shall be considered sufficient evidence to convict, that liquor spurporting to be imported may be seized and the owners ma le to prove that they were imported; that the first penalty for the manufacture of liquor in the State shall be 81000 and six months imprisonment: tiiat teams used in transporting liquor shall be confiscated and the drivers fined 8200 and imprisoned six months. Gen. Neal Dow read portions of the amend- ments, commenting upon them and making a 1 strong appeal in their favor. He believed that the sentiment of the people would sup port additional law and said that the state of! the temperance question in Maine influence! the cause tlirougoout the world Dr. Warren, editor of the Christian Mir-1 ror, addressed the committee, lie asked lor a law that would carry out the constitution of the State. M tine, the speaker said, is looked upon the wide world over as the cotnmou wealth which has grappled with the liquor! curse. It is undeniable that Maine has reach ed a high plane in temperance reform, and it is your privilege, gentlemen of the legtsla tun*, to bring tins question to a finality in tl'is Slate, i'lie hill which has been referred i to has been drawn up with especial reference to practicability. Every amendment pre sented has been prepared with care and by experienced men. The amendments we ask are all needed to do the work. It would be humiliating after thirty years of warfare, for the people of Maine to give up the work. Kev. H. C. Munson said: 1 am somewhat surprised that not more radical sentiments j have been expressed here this evening. It is time that we accomplished something. We have been working in Portland for about three weeks to suppress the grog shops, and in our crusade tiave been no respecters of persons. In our efforts we have put out 236 warrants, and secured 100 barrels of beer. Hut notwithstanding we have raided these I shops, they continue to sell every day. What we get does not amount to much more than a high license. This fight which we are wag ing in Portland.is a war of our State and city against the combined liquor interests of the country. I'lie liquor -i llers are aided by the distillers and brewer- tit of the State, and for this reason we ask stronger laws Kev. I Luce of Gardiner said that the amendments had been carefully considered by the different temperance organizations of the State. Kev. 1). B. Kandall believed that there were many rat holes to lie stopped and stated that the purpose of the temperance people was to close them ull. Mr. W. W. Perry of Camden expressed the opinion that drunkards should beheld equally responsible with the man that sells liquor. Kev Mr Skeele said that the question had been how much money shall liquor sellers pay; now the)’ would have both fines and and imprisonment. W. II. Looney, Esq., of Portland, said It does not appear to me that public sentiment is what it should be on this question. If the mayor and police officers of Portland were in sy tn apt by with the law there would be no dif ficulty in enforcing it. s Gen. Dow scouted the idea that public sen 1 tirnent did not uphold the liquor law’ and cited the majority of 47,000 votes for the I prohibitory amendment in M line. Prison Inspector Porter advocated a more stringent law against drunkenness. II. II. Harvey of Augusta made brief re I marks. i Adjourned. Obituary. Hon. Benjamin A. G Fuller, whose death occurred in Brookline. Mass., Saturday, was tiorn in Augusta, his father being Henry Weld Fuller, a native of Middleton, Conn. He graduated at Bowdoin in lSSO. afterwards studying law with his father and at the Cam bridge Law School. Admitted to the bar in 1840, he commenced the practice of law in this city and from 1850 to 1854 was judge of the Augusta Municipal Court. He repre sented the city in the Legislature with D. C. Stanwood in 1856, following which he edited “The Age" a number of years and removed to Cambridge. Mass., in 1864. in which State he has since resided. He mar ried Harriet S., daughter of Hon.

Manley or this City Elected Chairman. The Republican State Committee met last evening in the reading room of Hotel North. There wu a full atteedance of the member*, and report* were made from every section. Hon. George C. Wing, who has been the effi cient chairman of the committee declined a re-election, and Hon. J. H. Manley of this city was chosen. Mr. E. A. Noyes of Portland was elected treasurer. The chairman was authorized to appoint an executive committee of seven, of which the chairman should be ex-officio chairman. The chairman appointed A. W. Coombs of Cumberland. Geo. C Wing of Androscoggin. S. W. Carr of Sagadahoc, J. L. Cutler of Penobscot, H. B. Saunders of Hancock and F. A. Powers ot Aroostook. The executive committee was authorized to elect a secretary. Tlie State Committee is now constituted as follows Androscoggin—Geo. C. Wing, Auburn. Aroostook—Frank A. Powers, Houlton. Cumberland—Ardon W. Cooutbs. Portland. Franklin—Janies Morrison, Jr Phillipps Hancock—Hutson B. Saunders.Ellsworth. Kennebec—Joseph H. Manley, Augusta. Knox—O. G. Hale. Rockland. Lincoln—Edwin Flye, Newcastle.

Belfast. Washington—Austin Harris, Ea. Machias. York —Amos L. Allen—Alfred. Mr. Manley accepted tlie chairmanship, and said Gentleman I thank you for this expres sion of vour confidence. I should be indeed ungrateful did I nut feel a just pride in being unanimously asked to accept the chairman ship of a committee containing so many men of marked ability, and did I not know that 1 could at all times rely upon the active co-op eration ot every number of the committee. I should decline the honor. I realize fully the labor mv acceptance involve*, and I recog nize that it is tlie duty of the chairman to use his position,not ill selecting candidates for the party, but to aid in electing whoever tlie party in its judgment designates to become its leaders. I also recognize that were I to con tinue to hold the federal office I now hold it might subject the pirty to some criticism should I accept, but my term of office as Postmaster expires in May, and long before 1 am called npon to act as chairman of the com mittee I shall have become a private citizen. For tlie first time since any member of this committee has taken part in political life, our next campaign must be fought witli the na tional administration in the keeping of the democratic party. It will be our duty to endeavor by wise administration of every trust confided to our care to render it iru posrible tor tlie political powor in tins State to pass into tlie hands of our opponents.

Latui destitute ot vegetable matter will neither absorb nor retain moisture. There is always a poor growth without sufficient dampness, and this is an important reason why commercial fertilizers work better, as their advocates admit, “when used with barnyard manure.” I have been called old fogyish for insisting that farmers should not put mnch faith in the so-called phosphates. It seems to me foolish to follow any system so expensive and risky, and which tends to make increased dry ness in the soil, when experience teaches that moisture is so essential. I am satis fied that much drainage is an evil, ami coupled with this comes the phosphate craze. It should be the aim of farmers to increase the vegetable matter in the soil. Thousands of acres of land in the older States have been made unproduc tive, if not barren, by the exhaustion of vegetable matter. Commercial fertilizers will neverrestore these lands,nor keep up the fertility of the larger portion of the areas now under cul tivation. They should be used only as aids in promoting the growth ot plants. In soils, where there is a supply of organic matter, superphosphates undoubtedly in crease crops. Farmers, however, do not discriminate, but with a deal of guesswork and lavish outlay, they overlook nature's laws for replenishing the soil. It is one ot the standard arguments of fertilizer agents, that it is good economy to sell straw and other fodder and buy from them the weighty compounds with the small per cent of ammonia, phosphoric acid, potash and nitrogen. My system is to purchase these substances in the form of (odder, a nt keep more animals, and make them ntv commercial agents and chemists. !—F. D. Curtis, in .V. Y. Tribune.

Late in the day I purchased a brown stallion,with a strain of Arab blood,rather undersized, but compact and one of the handsomest horses l ever saw before or since, very powerful, nearly thorough bred. When the auctioneer had knocked him down to me, I said to one of the grooms of the establishment who was helping my man—handing him a crown piece at the same time— “As the little brown horse is mine,with all faults, just have the goodness to tell me what is his fault?” “Why, sir,” he answered, "he can walk, trot, gallop, and jump, first rate, surely; but he’s very awkward to mount; and when you are on. he’ll try uncommon hard to get you off, for two minutes if vou stick fast, he will be quiet enough all day.” “Thank you, my man,” I replied “I’ll try him directly.” Just before starting I found the chest nut had a shoe loose, and had to send him to the nearest village, two miles off. I had promised Laura to return by eight o'clock, to finish a delightful book we were reading aloud together, until the tiff about Capt. Egret had interrupted us. You may judge if I was not impatient; and yet, with 15 miles to ride to Flint, I had no time to spare. My friend the groom saddled the brown horse, and brought him down to the open road to me. He trotted along, with shin ing coat and arched neck, snorting and j waving his great tail like a lion. As he piaffed and paraded sideways along, cast ing back his lull eye most wickedly .every motion spoke mischief, but there was no time for consideration I had barely an hour to do 15 miles of rough roads before crossing the river, and must get to the river-side, cool. I hail intended to have ridden the chestnut, who was experienced in water, but the loose shoe upset that arrangement. Without giving him any time to see I what I was about, I caught him by the j mane and the reins, threw myself from a sloping bank into the saddle, and although j he dragged the groom across the road, I had both feet in the stirrups hefore he burst from bis hold. Snorting fiercely, he bucked and plunged until I thought the girths would surely crack; but other horsemen galloping past, enabled me to bustle him into full speed, and in five minutes he settled down into a long, lux urious stride, with his legs under his haunches, that telt like a common canter, but really devoured the way, and swept me past everything on the road. Up hill and down, it was all the same, he bound ed like a machine full of power on the softest of steel springs. Ten miles were soon past, and we reached Holywell; up the sleep hill and through the town, and down the steep, narrow lanes, we went and reached the level road along the shore leading to Flint, without halt, until within two miles of that town then 1 d’-ew bridle to walk in cool. By this time the weather, which had been bright all day. had changed a few heat drops of rain fell, thunder was heard rolling in the distance, and a wind seemed rising and murmuring from the sea. I looked at my watch as we entered the town it was an hour past the time when l intended to have crossed. But Laura must not be disappointed, so I only halt ed at the inn long enough to let the brown wash his mouth out, and without dis- i mounting, rode on to the guide’s house. As 1 passed the Castle I heard a band playing; it was a party of officers with their friends, who had come up on a picnic from Chester. When I reached the cottage of old Da vid, the guide, he was sittingon the bench at the door, putting on his shoes and stock ings; and part of the party I had met in the morning, as they passed, cried, “You’re late, master; you must hurrv on to cross to-night.” David was beginning to dissuade me. but when 1 threw him a shilling, and trotted on. he followed me, pattering down the beach. “lou must make haste, master, for the wind’s getting up, and will bring the tide like a roaring lion—it will. But I sup pose the pretty lady with the rosy face ex pects you But where’s the red horse? I wish you had him I do not like strange horses on such a time as this—indeed, and I do not,” he added. But I had no time for explana tions, although David was a great ally of ours. I knew I was expected; it was get ling dusk, and Laura would be anxious, 1 hoped. Pushing briskly along, we soon reached the ford of the channel, so calm and shal low in the morning, but now tilling fast with the tide; dark clouds were covering the sky, and the wind brought up a hol low murmuring sound. “Now get across, young gentleman, as fast as you can. and keep your eye on the windmill, and you will have plenty of time; so good evening, God bless you young gentleman, and the pretty lady, too.” cried David, hones test of Welsh guides. I tried to walk the brown horse through the ford where it was not more than three or four feet deep, but he first refused, then, when pressed, plunged fiercely in. and was out ot his depth in a moment. He swam bodly enough, but obstinately kept his head down the stream so that, instead of landing on an easy, shelving shore, he came out where all but a per pendicular bank of soft sand had to be leaped and climbed over. After several unsuccessful efforts, I was obliged to slip off, and climb up on foot, side by side with mv horse, holding on bv the flap of the saddle. If I had not dismounted, we should probably have rolled back together. When I reached the top of the’bank, rather out of breath, I looked back, and saw David making piteous signs, as he moved off rapidly, for me to push along. But this was easier said than done; the brown horse would not let me come near him Hound and round he went, rearing and plunging, until I was quite exhausted. Coaxing and threatening were alike use less every moment it was getting darker. Once I thought of letting the brute go, and swimming back to David. But \vhen I looked at thestream, and thougnt of Laura, 1 that idea was dismissed. Another tussle, in which we ploughed up the sand in a circle, was equally fruitless, and I be^an to think he would keep me there to°be drowned, for to cross to Parkgate on foot before the tide came up strong, seemed hopeless. At length, finding I could not get to touch his shonlder, I seized the op portunity, when he was close to the bank of the stream, and catching the curb sharp ly in both hands, backed him half way down almost into the water. Before he had quite struggled up to the top, I threw myself into the saddle, and was carried off at the rate of thirty miles an hour toward the sea. (To be continued.)

Walter Barry, 7 Hollis st., Boston, Mass., after vainly try ing a number of medicines, for the cure of lumbago, was persuaded to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. He writes: “Your valuable medicine not only relieved me, but I be lieve it has worked a perfect cure, although my complaint was apparently chronic.” Tlios.
