Some yesrs ago, if is related, a peddler was murdered in the nonh of Scotland, and tfc crime remained for a long time a mystery. At last a man came forward'and declared that be bad bad a dream in which there w8 Bhown to him a bouse, and a voice directed him to a ppot near the boose where was buried the pack of the murdered man ; and on search be ing made the pnek was actually found near the spot. At first it was thought the dreamer was himself the ourder cr, but the man who had been accus ed confessed the crime, and said that the dreamer knew nothing about it. It turned out afterward that the mur derer and the dreamer had been drink ing together for several days a short time after the murder. It has been suggested as a possible solution that the murderer allowed statements to ecape him while under the influence of drink which had been recalled to the other in his dream, though be had not the slightest remembrance of them in his sober hours. mA. gentleman dreamed that hi boast was on fire; and the dream made so vivid an impression that he immediately returned, saw it on fire in deed, and was just in time to save one of his children from the flames. A lady dreamed that an aged fe male relative had been Mf SHEKED EY A BfACK. EEUVANT, and this dream was repeated so often that she repaired to the old lady's house and 6et a gentleman to watch in the night About three o'clock in the morning the black servant was discovered going to his mistress' room, as he said, with coal to mend the fire a sufficiently absurd excuse at such . ap JLoar and in tha middle of summer. , The tnith was apparent when a strong kni.e was found buried beneath the coala.- .!fh$caee of the gentleman from Carawall who dreamed eight days :lford" the event that he saw hit.

He nrged that it had occurred to Lim three times in the same night, but bis friends thinking it a fool's errand, he allowed the mat ter to drop till the news of the mur der rudely resuscitated it A gentleman from Yorkshire form ed ore cf a party for visiting the Ex hibition of 18C2 A few days before leaving for London be had a most vivid dream of the Tower, the Armo ry, and more especially the room in which the regalia and crown jewels are kept He heard the old woman who showed the room address the audienco, and treasured up carefully her very peculiarities of voice, dress, manner and features, and created con siderable amusement among his friends by mimicking the phantom chow-woman when he awoke. He went to London at the proper time, and of course visited the Tower.where be was astounded and somewhat so bered by the phantom's couxterfaex, which was identical in every respect Several years ago the newspapers were filled with details of a horrible murder, of which the facts, related from memory, seem to be these : Mrs. Martin, the wife of a farmer, was in terrible distress of mind because her daughter Maria was missing. It was feared she bad been murdered by her sweetheart in a fit of jealousy, and hidden somewhere. For a long time no trace of the body could be found. At length the mother had a dream, in which it was revealed to her that tha corpse of her child was bnried un der the barn floor. This proved to be the case, the body was recovered, and the murderer detected. The mother of a medical student dreamt that her soa had got into some seri ous trouble in London, and could not rest till she left her home in the Mid land counties, and sought him out. To ber sorrow, the dream was pain fully verified, and the consequences mirbt have been serious if she had not arrived in time. A barrister of great penetration re lates the story of a lady who dreamt rtbat a railway guard was killed in a collision. She described the jnan and circumstances so faithfully that there was no difficulty in identifying the guard (who was actually killed the same night in a lamentable acci dent) as the man sbe saw ia ber dream. The lady rarely left home, , and the guard was quite unknown to her. Archdeacon Squire, in a paper read before the Iloyal Society in 1743, tells the story of a certain Hen ry Axford, of Devizes, who caught a violent cold when be was 28 years of age, which rendered him ppeechless, and he remained dumb for four years. In Jcly, 1711, in his sleep he dreamt that, "he had fallen into a furnace of boiling wort, which put him into so great an agony of fright that he act ually did call oat aloud, and recover ed the nse of his tongue from that moment as effectually as ever." Horace Bushnell, D. P., in his "Nature and the Supernatural," re counts a case which he thinks cannot be explained by natural causes. Sit ting by the fire one stormy November night, in a hotel parlor in the Napa Vailey of California, there entered a venerable looking person named Cap tain Yount, who had come to Cali fornia as a trapper more than forty years before. Tnere be lived, and had acquired a large estate, and was fcighly respected. The captain said that "six or seven years pre v ions he bad a dream in which be saw what appeared to him to be a company of emigrants arrested bv the Enows of the mountains, and perishing rapidly cf cold and hanger. The whole scene appeared vividly before him; be noted huge cliff and the very features of the persons, and their looks cf agon izing despair. He awoke, but short ly after fell asleep again, and dreamt precisely the same thing. Eeing now impressed with the truth of the story he told it to an old hunter sbertly afterward, who declared that she 4aew the spot which exactly an swered to his "description. This de- -cided-bva. and taking a company of .men with joules, blankets, etc., tbey hurried to the Carson Valley Pass, ISO milea distant, where tbey found the emigrants inexactly the condition of the dreaai, and brought in the rem nant alive.

The intelligence and natural in. 8tinct of these valuable aaimala can not be too highly praised, and it is a matter of pleasure to all lovers of fine stock to see the rapidity with which they are becoming introduced into our country. No farmer should be without one. They are watchful, docile, and indispensable, especially in wild and mountainous localities, to the successful raising of sheep. So strong are their instincts for the care of stock, it is a matter of little trouble to train them, and once they have learned what is required of them they tre faithful and untiring in the per formance of their duties. In Europe where large flocks of sheep are under the care of but one shepherd, with the aid of these dogs the sheep arc allowed to roam over vast territory, oftentimes in such rough places as to render man's at tempts to follow thea impossible. The dog's esgacity is soch that they at ence become familiar with the flock, and not only do they keep them closely herded, but prevent their in termingling with the Cocks of others who may be grazing in the same lo calities. In the mountains of Scot land and Switzerland it ia a common thing to see flocks of sheep and goats under the sole care of these dogs, tbey following them all the day, and drive them into fold in the even ing. In England, within the last few years, field-trials have been instituted, in order to imnrove the breed and training of these valuable animals. The performances recorded of some of these dogs at soch trials are extra ordinary. Tbey are managed in this way : first a few sheep are allowed to roaai a long way off from home, then the dog, or dogs, are laid on to drive them into an eccloeure built for the parpose. Strict time ia kept, and the one whJ accomplishes the feat soon est is declared the winner. Another more difficult usk i3 then imposed, and one which tries their Bagacity to the fullest extent : a n 02 ber of sheep from different flocks are placed to gether, and the dog is required to go among them, pick out and drive into fold his master's particular ones. No one can look into the calm, in telligent lace cf the thoroughbred "Cooler," without greatly admiring him. He notices every action, and listens to every word of his master, as though he knew exactly wbat he wished, and was or.lv sorry that he could not reply to Lim in words. The manv authentic anecdotes related of these dogs are so wonderful as still almost to cast a doubt upon their truthfulness. For instance, it is re lated of a Scotch shepherd, who bad in his charge seven hundred sheep, that one night as he wasquietly driv-i tag his flock home, a thunder-storm buret upon and so terriued teem as to create a stampede, ana away toe whole lot went scampering back into the hills. It was too late for the poor man to follow them, could he have done so ; to bring this great number to order again was an impassibility. Sadly did the poor shepherd feel, and in his saddest manner spoke to his fa vorite dog: "Sirrah, they are awa." In an instant tha dog was off. It was so dark he could cot tell which way the dog had gone. Disconsolate he wandered about during the long boars of the night and as dawn ap peared, the dog not having returned, he bad determined to go at once and report the disaster to bis master, when, happening to Jooit down a val ley near by, to his joy recognized "Sirrab," not with a portion only, but with the whole nock. A story is told of another one of these dogs hav ing driven the cattle from a burning stable, though perishing Cipieelf in the cCbrt. A sheep stealer in Scotland had one of these dogs so well trained that it is said he coald. while walking past a flock of sheep, designate the one he wished ; and at night the dog would go into the fold and drive oat the par ticular one. Another equally astomsbing ac count is given of a "Cooley," whose master was a cattle dealer. This dog would drive a drove of cattle to a neighboring market-town unaided. Should ho chance to meet another drove in the road he would so man age as to pass it without allowing his charge to mix with the otfce-B. With such evidences of sagacity as the above, it should stimulate the breeding of these dogs, and once the eountry is stocked with them the farmer can go to bed with the asnr- ance that his flocks and herds will be carefully guarded, and the fearful loss by Bbeep-kilhng dogs put to an end Tbey can do the work so much bet ter than men that the cost cbould not be a consideration, as they wonjd pay for themselves in a very short time, no matter wbat was the price paid. Ia the famous Central Park of New York two of these dogs can be seen every day guarding a large flock of sbcep. They keep tbcm where ordered, or change them from one meadow to another, as directed -; Eomeumes me Bnepnera antes toe flock, leaving one portion in the care of each dog when he goes off to other duties. What a comfort that would be to many of our sheep-breeders who have large ranges for their ani mals, and who do not know half the time where they are ! Tb Abnaeof Pais. The little cerves of feeling which run through all parts of the human body carry to the brain intelligence of disaster and of pleasure. The evil messages tbey bring are callc! pains. A pain admonishes us that eo-i injury is done to a part of the body a finger jammed, a toe cut, an arm burned or some part is over work ed or weaned and must have rest The iierves but do their duty, when they report faithfully thesa things, and our duty is to repair the naicchief which caused the nerves to report in the way of pain. But many persons are annnoyed by these evil messages, and only seek to silence the messen ger. The immediate call is for some thing to "still the pain." Fortunate ly, tbe means employed are some time oueb as correct the evil at once, and bo pot an end to the troub le reported fcy the nerves.

Some flourished both weapons. hen a member entered the House he un strapped his revolver and laid them on his desk. It was done with as little concern as hanging op a hat, and excited neither surprise nor com ment There wag a hot debate over the proposed impeachment of Judge Tur ner. At the conclusion of Mr. Field's argument, B. F. Moore, of Tuolumne, arose to reply. He opened bis draw er, cocked tiis revolvers, and laid them on bis desk. Then he launch ed himself on a sea of vituperation. Mr. Field vsha handled without gloves. The ru st offensive epithets were used, and the speaker openly declared himself responsible for his language at any time and place. Mr. Field answered Mr. Moore's ar guments, but made no allusion to his personal remarks. After the adjourn ment, however, he aked S. A. Mer ritt to bear a note Mr. Moore, de manding an apology or satisfaction. Mr. Merritt refused, through fear cf beiug disqualified for office. Mr. Richardson, another member, also declined. Happening into the Sen ate chamber, the jurist saw a stone cutter sealed at a desk, writing. He was David C. Broderick. President of the State Senate. They were bowing acquaintances. "Why, Judge you don't look well." said Broderick. "What's the mat ter?" "Well, I don't feel well." Field re sponded. "I don't seem to have a friend in the world." "What worries you?" inquired the Btonecutter. Thejurist gave tha particulars of Moore's assault upon his character, and said that, at all hazard, be was was determined to call him to ac count. "Well, I'll be your friend," Brod erick replied. "Write your note; I will deliver it" Thejurist wrote the note at an ad joining desk, and Broderick placed it in Moore'9 hands. The latter gentle man crawfished. He eaid that he ex pected to be a candidate for Con gress, and that he could not accept a challenge, because that act would disqualify him. "I have no objec tion to a street fight, however,1' he added. The stonecutter replied that a street fight was not exactly the thing among gentlemen, but if Moore would do no better he shouM be accommo dated. He forthwith named time and place, and Moore promised to be on hand. Within an hour, however, changed his mind. lie informed Broderick that the Hon. Drury Bald win would act as Lis friend, aod de liver a reply to the note of Mr. Field On the next morning the etonecnt- ter tested the jurist's tfcill in the use of a pistol. With a navy revolver Field plumped a knot on a tree at a distance of CO yards, three times out of five. Broderick expressed Lis sat isfaction, and urged 'the necessity cf bringing the matter to a speedy issue. "Bring it to an issue at once, ' Mr. Field responded. Broderick quickly called upon Dru ry Baldwin, and aefced for a reply to, the note. Baldwin replied that his principal hiid made cp his mind to drop the matter. "Then," said the stonecutter, "as soon as the House meets, Mr. Field will riee in bis eeat and repeat Moore's language as to his responsi bility. He will state that respect for the dignity of the House prevented Lim from replying to the attack in terms that it deserved when it was cade, and after detailing Moore's re fueal to give him satisfaction, he will denounce him as a liar and a cow ard." "Then," . eaid Drury Baldwin, "Judge Field will be shot in his seat." "In that case," rejoined Broderick, "others will be shot in their Beats." At the opening of the House, Mr. Field took his eet at bis desk as usu aL Broderick was seated near him, with eight or nine personal friends all armed to the teeth and ready for any emergency. When the journal waa read botb Field and Moore sprang to,theirfeet, and shouted, "Mr. Speaker!" That officer recognized "the gentleman from Tuolomne." and Mr. Field resumed his Beat. Moore read a written apology, full, ample and satisfactory. Broderick afterward befriended Mr. Field on many occasions. Tbey were standing at the bar cf a hotel in San Francisco, in 1S52, wbn Broderick saw a man throw back bis Spanish cloak and level a revolver at his friend. In a twinkling he flung himself between the two men, and pushed Field oct of the room. The prompt action undoubtedly saved bis lire.

A number of old residents of Den ver remember a venerable Scotch mountaineer by the name of McDon ald who came to the city t wo cr three times during the war with a small donkey carrying bis personal effects and several buck-kin bags well filled with gold dust Oo such occasions be would deposit ia some of the banks not less than from $15,000 to $13,000. McDonald was a very social and talk ative old fellow, but never would re veal the place where he got his gold Severel men undertook to follow him secretly and learn where be waa going but all came back without knowing anymore tean when they started, for McDonald each time managed to throw them off the trail, and the men reported that they invaribly lost troce of him near White River, after fol lowing him through the Ute Pass as far as the Middle Park. Whenever McDonald came to Den ver he would stop with a French maa named Baptiste, aod the two were great friends. One day the Scotch man disappeared on one of his sud den trips to the mountain, which he took each pains to keep a scecret, and it was noticed that Baptiste was gone too. But they did not depart in company, and hence it was surmis ed that the Frenchman followed McDonald with a vie w opy iog upon the movements of the old man and ascertaining from what secret mine in the mountain he drew his wealth, and though eight years have passed away, none of his Denver friends ever learned wbat had become of him. About two years ago the gentleman to whom the Republican is indebted for the abive pa ticular-im it Bap .iste on the street. He found bim a morse aod sullen man, and when asked wbat had become of his old Scotch friend, gruffly answered that he did not know, and tnrned away. The recent marvelous repart from North Tark, Ufcin in consideration with the above facts, form ctronger grounds for the belief that McDonald passed through the Uie Pae, through Middle Park into North Park, and years ago dis covered the rich deposits, the exis tence of which is only now beginning to be suspected.
