requirments made by State and Church
and willingly abandoned all the prestig*

struck from the army list, where h<
ranked as Field Marshal, his high or

A BASH FOR LIFE.
I was out in . during tha wild
times that thev had there a number of
rears ago. There must, I think, haw
l>e*n five or an hundred of na in and
about B—We were surrounded on
all aides by bn ah ranger*. Outrages of
every possible kind were of daily ooonr
renee, and many a brave fellow met hia
death in attempting, with others, to
break up the cam pa of these daring out
law*. Did I eome near losing my life,
von ask ? Yea, more than once. And
t jwrtienlarly recall one time of w hioli
I will tell von.
We had a small, resolute company of
mi-n under us, made desperate by re
peated wrongs, and they hardly oared
what tiny did or what risk they ran, in
trying to exterminate those fierce bush
ranger*.
Almost every movement of onrn was
watched ; but Sheldrie Day, our captain
was as keen aa the shar)vst of the out
laws So when an old farmer eiuue in
with his wagon AUed with green stuff
and covered with straw. Day watched
hia chance and succeeded in starting
him homeward with a load of rides un
der the straw.
Toward nightfall one man straggled
iff, whistling in one direction, with his
hands in his pooketa ; another oue an
•ther way ; another, another; and so
>n. Our rendezvous was Dune's Forks,
1 lonely track of country, where the
roads branched off 111 many directions.
When we got fairly beyond the lim
it* haunted by spies, we mended our
aee, and the men were aoon coming in
"rora *ll direction! upon the run, ready
'o scire their weapon* and go whither
"aptain Day might lead.
Shaping our course in a southwesterly
lirection, we made what speed the
*l', tangled, bothersome prairie-grass
vould allow, and crept on stealthily.
The camp of the bushranger* was at
•upper; we surprised it, and a fierce
iand-h>h*ud fight ensued. The fellows
were finally routed ; but somehow 1 I*>-
•ame separated from the rest, and two
•r three of the ruffians, discovering my
-itnation. Were down upon me. In spite
>f isr frantic effort* they captured me,
oid bore me with them on the retreat.
My company probably did not at first
lisoever my absence, a* it was quite
lark, and so I was left to the mercies of
a gang of cut-throats.
With no delicate touch thqj- seized
ipon me, securely l*oun.l uiv hands, and
luviaed me, with the cold \ips of a re
volver, to keep quiet. They then dash
d away toward a village some miles dis
•ant, where their headquarters were, or
rather where the prison was located.
Without* wont, I was thrust into a
lamp, dark, underground apartment,
vhose only aperture for light and air
vat a grated hole which just roes above
the ground level. I gathered myself up.
nd looked my situation in the face. I
cnew these outlaws well. I had Dotti
ng to expect but to lie dragged forth
luring the night and hanged upon the
Irat projection which offered sufficient
-upport for my weight. I was too well
l tno*rn as first lieutenant of the K
regulator to hope for mercy. My eoro
ainions would doubtless think that I
tad fallen, and leave me to my fate.
Worn out with hard work and care, I
ell asleep—though I have often won
'ered since at it—from which delightful
est I was awakened by a soft, rasping
loise close bv.
" Rats," I mentally commented, and
urned over -
" Hist," said a voico at the window,
■r the grated opening that served for
■no. " Are yon awake ?"
" Awake and more than awake," I
nswered, and immediately brought my
aoe to the aperture.
"Be quiet," said the voice. " Their
'uard is paring not ten yards from here,
>ut the darkness is favorable. Get thm
ron bar between the rods and wrenjh
•arefully toward you. I have straight
ned out the ends that were clenched
ipon this side."
Carfnlly seizing upon the iron bar
hrrst in to me, I inserted the end uu
'er tlie first rod, and gradually started
t.
" IliPt! the guard is comiag this way:
vait until returns to the frent,"
•reathed my helper. " Hist!"
Tlie guard clanked bv, starting the
weat from every pore oi my body; for
expeected him to stumble upon my
riend and deliverer outside.
"Be quick," resumed the voice at
he grating again. *' He will return in
nst twenty annates, for I have marked
lis beats; and—quick."
Oue after the other each of the bars
was dropped from its place; and then,
y reaching my hands out through the
iperture, and by dint of using my shoe
ess feet against the wall, I struggled,
nd was i rswn through. Fortunately,
' was slim and slight; a large man must
tave hopelessly strangled himself. Not
oo soon, either, for the guard turned
he earner at the moment and came to
•mrd us. We crouched behind in the
h"de of the projecting wall.
He heard nothing: saw notltng; paced
■is best, and went back. Once out of
iglit, be very sure we did not lose an v
tme. Springing up, and catching b>
he top of the high fence, we swung our
elvc* outside.
" The onlv thing that I could get,"
aid Davis, leading me to an old mnle,
nd cautioning me in a whisper to he
are of the vicious old animal's heels.
' Now, look sharp; don't take the Red
"orks, mind yon, nor the main route
hat leads to the court-house. There
re four roads by the Live Oaks, all
unuing west; you know them; be snre
! on't take the third one, that leads right
ato the camp of the outlaws, but the
ourth takes you down among our bop
-the Regs. Mind well my directions,
nd ride softly, while I try to take np
he attention of the sentinel."
I mounted in a heterogeneous raan
icr. the old mule refusing to remain
uffieiently stationary for me to seat mi
elf according to the fashions of eivili
ation.
Ride softly ! Davis must have been
oking. For the heels of that vicious
•nite beat the sod as though he were a
Irnm-majer beating the devil's tattoo,
nd with considerable more force and
ffect. Bnt at last I persuaded him with
ny heels to move on, not nntil I hat]
icard the sentinel brawling with Davis,
vho was personating a drunken roan
rith great read and eminent success.
I got out of the plooe os soon as the
tiff knees of my animal would let me;
>nt somehow or other I became eori
nsed as to Davis' directions.
The stars broke out through the
•londs, and so I passed the Red Forks,
nd the main route leading to the conrt
'.onse safely, but when I came to the
Liive Oaks, there I was out, and un
consciously, too. To this day I don't
:now how it happened. I certainly
tvoided the thiru road, as I believed
nstead of which I turned into it. There
leeming myself safe, I relaxed my vig-i
--mee, and pictured our (pen's surprise
vhen I should ride up to them. Tliree
[uarters of a mile off I could see their
imp-fire glaring. I did not shout or
pprise them in any way of my ooming ;
hey were for the most part asleep ; but
rent quietly on, and dashed right into
he camp of bushrangers; some ol
vhora had carried me to prison bnt a
ew hours before.
Picture my position. Had I posaeas
•d a good horw, I should have made a
-uah for it, while they were petrified
•nth amazement; but my treacherous
>ld beast now refused to move forward
•r back. Just then couldn't I have
■houted with Richard: "My kingdom
or a horae!" Well, they had me, more's
he pitv, seeing that nearly all of them
vere drunk, and the reat unsteady in
heir joints. Maybe they made me the
intt of a few thick practical jokes, as
hey pulled me from the old mule's
rack, and liound my hands, making the
-ope fast to a stump, and setting a
'.hick, rough fellow to guard me. I was
half palsied by my mistake, I had made
no resistance. No doubt that much
wp in favor.
Time passed. Ere long my guard be
gan to snore. I then cautiously worked
ny hands, and found to my joy, that I
eonld strain upon the knots, and slip
my hands tblrough. This I did. Next
T made some slight movements to try
my ohance, and I found they did not
arouse the sentipel.
The fire wnsMying down to a flicker
ing shade, and I knew that it mut be
within an hour or two of dayligiU. I
crawled pa3t my guard; he did noi our,
and keeping well in the shadow, I made
for the horses of the party. When close
np to them, 1 cautiously rose upright
and snatched a pick at-pin, aeiaed the
halter, and vaulted upon the hack of a
powerful horse. He seamed doeile
enough, bt| the moving him out from
amid the others made them uneasy.
They stamped, and pawed, and neighed,
and when, with a rap of tup' heel, a* a
spur, we dashed for the eover of the
Wihhls, the disturbance made by theae
treacherous animals alarmed the oump.
1 was in for it now. Life or death
depended upon the event a of the next
fifteen inmates. I dashed into the
thick, tangled woods. Liter darkness
reigned. In live mamtes 1 was unhorae
ed, but hoi.ling to the lkdtcr, I leaped
on again, and madly da4ied forward to
life or to death.
What a rule that was ! Without bri
! die or saddle, dashing full tilt against
the wold gnt|>c vines everywhere strung
across the way, went 1, Once they
caught nic under the chin, and swept
me off over the horse's back into the
; brush with the |>orpiration oozing from
pore.
I scrambled out ami mounted again.
It wua a good horse, but a datigcroiia
w ay. Now a dead branch would catch
thaooru.T of my mouth, and now some
-1 thing would emne m contact with my
eyes, making them sparkle again.
Bill 1 escaped. The very danger
which beset my jnith savial me.
I got through that seventeen utiles'
ride somehow, coming out scratched and
bleeding, but alive. Out on the plains,
senia Ave miles from L- , I ran upon
the remains of a mule tram that had
been bringing us provisions. The
driver* lav around murdered, the carta
plundered and broken, and cue hoy of
fourteen, with hi* scalp clean gone, lay
on the ground, vet alive. 1 got him up
before me—-for how could 1 leave him
there?—and carried him into H .
" But did the boy live, captain ? "
" Bob ? Oh, yes, and afterwards be
came a soldier, too, itud fought against
the Indians."
•' Without his scalp ? "
" Yes, and thereby escaped much
trouble, von understand. Fuss the ci
gars."

Tlie Rod Sea.
A writer in the London Xeu * remarks
that the Red Sea is rather noted for be
ing hot, but the greatest lieat is said to
be in August anil the early davs of Sep
tember. There ore burning deserts on
each side of tho sea, anil the hot air
from them is most intense in this month,
and must come by whatever wind may
chance to blow.
Sleeping on deck becomes the fash
ion, and every night increases the num
ber of what seems eorpsea laid out in
rows. At last, as we get in the middle
of the Red Sea, the ladies find it ini]**-
siblc to exist in tho cabins below, and
they have their beds brought ou deck.
Wining the perspiration fp>m the face
and neck is tho only possible occupa
tion. If von try to write, grent drops
gather and come down with a splash on
the paper na if from a thunder cloud.
Men with bald heads seem always to
have a crop of penrls coming up through
the skin. All the pores of the body
oem like perpetual fountains of water.
The sight on the forecastle is very
striking at night. There are the crew
of Lascnra, and tlie seedy Wallahs, or
negroes, who do flic stoking—poor fel
lows, they come tip from their fiery
Gehenna ji*ping, at ttnies fainting in
this climate. The stewards also take
refnge on tho forecastle, and it is the
only place for the second-class passen
gers, and among them arc two Chinese
women, a Malsv woman, and n group of
Ayahs from Ceylon, Madras and Cal
cutta. There are two Jews from Singa
pore, an English groom in charge of a
horse, and a few others, a different class,
who cannot afford to pay lirst-class fare.
All come on the forecastle, except a Indo
or two, who do not like the thick crowd
ing rf the sleepers, for the whole place
is a mass of human beings. The heat
is far too great for fun, singing, or even
conversation. Everyone lays himself
down to rest, and remains there absorb
ed with his own sensations, till sleep
gives him complete repose. Wherever
there is a spot where a mnn can put his
body tho place is soon filled.
It must be remarkably handy—*omr
timcn—for a young scientific student to
lie in possession of a natural microscope.
The lutest wonder in England is a boy
with microscopic eyes. When quite
yonng his eyes were diseased, una lie
nearly lost his sigkt. When he re
covered it was found that the structure
of the overbad been essentially changed,
and he possessed the faculty of seeing
minute objects magnified to a marvelous
degree. Distant objects he can not dia
tinguish ; but the magnifying power of
his vision is stated at five thousand
diameters. Once he aecidentlly dis
covered a vast number of infusoria in
the water be was drinking. The sight
so thoroughly frightened him that he
has never been willing to examine any
water since. The wonder is how ho can
help it. Probably he resolutely closes
his eves while drinking, and considers
the aoee a necessary evil.
Experienced sportsmen predict that
one rdfeult of the late atom will be that
quails will be found to have been de
stroyed in great numbers, and that for
the paxt season, ta say the least of |t,
qnailsywill be scarce. *

\Virk, like (OIHI, is a necessity of our
life. A disgust for either indicates dis
ease, or some unnatural condition.
Wheu wc find disgust of fovsl, we learn
generally that it comes of exoess. In
the case'of disgust for work, we think it
generally comes from the same source.
It is often said that man is uatutallv
lazy. Let every one sjwak for himself.
We know the statement is not true of
ourself. We love work. We like* day's
recreation occasionally, but the hours
lie gin to hang heavy in the latter part of

Shark-fishing in It Intnl.
"The Icelanders," says the Xntionnl
VdTdjfMe, " take no active part in the
whale fishery, bat devote theim l ives,
as a rule, to that* of shark and cod.
They fish principally from light ojwn
hoata, with projecting prows, and earn
nig only one small lng-sail. Itow-lmata
are prefiimsl on ai-count of the nnmls-r
of hands required. The Icelandic flsli
ermen are dcscrils-d as jsisaessing a
power of endurance, an ability to keep
the sen in all weathers, and a courage
alovi al praise ; they scorn ts take
provisions of any kind to sea, though
they never neglect to carry their snnfT
horns. It is greatly to be deplored that
tin-nc hardy mariners are so carelrw-
Is it h as to ticir personnl comforts and
an to the seaworthiness of their craft,
since to these faults may • nibtb N be
traced the fact that forty |x*r cent, of
the deaths of the men are caused bv
ilrowning. When a ves--cl is in sivirli
of sharks, it in anchored nt n place
where they are presumed to be—in pre
fereucw, near the rising mlge of a Iwmk.
Tlie anchor umnl is generally a f.ur
pnuige<l iron grapple, weighing nlsmt
180 pounds, with fifteen to twenty fath
oms nine-stxteeu inch iron chain cable,
and a SSObfathom long hawser. When
anchoml, the fishing commences. If
tiotiiing is caught, the jsitH>n is -hift
ed until the shark is found : and if the
take is good, tiie vess-l remains at the
post, and rides out the storm if neces
sary. The lines used are of the tlnck
nena of deep-sea lead lines, fastened to
three fathoms of chain, in the middle of
which a leadtwi weight of ten pounds to
thirteen pounds is fixed. Under this n
strong six-inch hook is fastened ; the
entire hook is coverts! with bait, and it
is notched inside the bend t<> prevent
the latter slipping down. When the
shark i hauled np to the surface it is
killed by means of a long spear. A har
poou is then fixed iii it, ami the ro|>e
fastened to the ship's side ; after which
the carcase is ripped up by a knife af
fixed to a pole, and the liver is taken
out and placed in barrels, ami stowed
away in the hold. The value of a car
case ia aliout 7s. fid. The flesh is sold
to the peasants, who burv it in the
ground for two or (iree weeks, and then
disinter it. wash it, and cut it tin into
strips, and hang it in the drying-bonae.
After one year's drying, it is considered
fit for footf. The flesh has then assum
ed a clear, reddish-yellow color, which
gives it something of the apjiearcnee f
salmon, so far as the eye is concerned,
but certainly not tho nose, for its pres
ence in a room is very perceptible.
How perceptible it must be HI case sf
ten-vear old shark flesh, which we are
further informed is accounted a delicacy
among native connoisseurs, we must
leave to the imagination nnd olfactory
nerves of our readers to conjecture.
The gall of the shark is used instead of
soap. The skin is also turned to gissl
account ; after lveing stretched on the
ground and dried, it is used as shoe
leather, though it is not susceptible of
polish. A shark of moderate size yields
two-thirds of a barrel of oil, (reckoning
a barrel at alxnit 140 quarts,) which is
extracted by lsiiling the liver. A first
Isiiling gives tho light train-oil ; a soo
ond, the darker or common oil. Three
barrels of liver givo nlwint two barrels
of oil, anil, in calm weather, one smnll
open boat, if fortunate, may secure aliout
fifteen barrels of liver in a couple of
days. In Hweden and Germany, where
the train-oil is much used in tanneries,
it fetches from 65 shillings to 125 shil
lings per barrel.
A Child Seized by a Panther and Saved by
a lhg.
A panther recently attcmpti-d to carry
off a child, in Nevada. The child, whicn
was a little girl three year* old, was
playing Iwfnre the open door, while its
mother wan sweeping. The panther,
which had crept near, anddenlv leajred
upon the child, seized her by tlie slioul
der, and turned to flee with her, when a
powerful and ferocious mastiff that was
sitting in the house, near the open door,
dualied out and aeized the pant her by
the throat. The wild beast dropped the
child, which was not hurt, and then a
furious fight ensued between the pan
ther and the mastiff. The dog tore open,
the panther'a throat with his teeth, and
the panther tore the flesh from the dog's
sides with its claws. The mother of
the child rushed out and rescued her
darling from beneath the feet of the
maddened combatants, carried her into
the house, and then seizing a loaded
rifle that was standing in a corner, she
hastened to the help of the mastiff. She
fired almost at random, but the bullet
struck the panther in the shoulder anil
passed dlear through his body. He fell
to the ground, and the dog, now utterly
furious with the rage of combat, soon
finished him.
l.lfo Among the Itullans.
At a social gathering Hon. flmtleld
gave an interesting Moount of his ol
sorvationa in Montana last summer,
while on a special miaaion for tin In
dinn Ihironu. Ha etprmwed very litth
faith in tho |Mtasilnlity of sivililllig the
Indian tribes of that 'l'orritory. The
moat diMHiitraguig trait in thou tdtartuv
I iM'ter was a lack of acquisitiveness.
Thoy np)H>arod to have no desire to no
j ipiiro proiH-rty, and if one mutto in p.>-
' session of auy surplus of provisions or
blankets, every vsgulHiiid in his tube
was at liberty to oomo ami help himself.
The Indians awtuod I 1 f'' Imittid to
carry hospitality to such an ot-at as to
give Mwny everything thoy had. An
industrious follow, who had aoctiintiln
tod a stare of dried meat or tlsh for
winter consumption, would IHI b<
vtnited by s crowd of his laiprovob-ut
hrethern, who would live <>u bun a
long as lie had anything to eat, and
w ken his lust morsel was gone, he would
join his guest*, slid thoy would all quar
ter on some other uiewlier of the tri!c.
| Thus these absurd ideas of tho duties
of hospitality look away all incentive
for the accumulation of property.
t irii, t lartield thought tjie chief hope
for the ultimate civilization of those
wild tribes was to bo found in their love
for horses slid Cuttle, which was tin
only kind of property they appeared to
set unv value upou. They rarely give
away their live stock, and if thev were
ever to l>c led out of barbarism it would
be iuto the condition of herdsmen. H
dnl not Iwlieve it was possible to con
vert a savage trilm st isii-e into peaceful
agriculturalists, ami was certain that no
amount of present* of plows, patent
reapers, ami sisals would wvumpiish
tins end. Nature's pr'KW-ss for eivili
ziug savage ruces was to muke id them
llrsl a uiiuiatlic juintoral jHatple, agrieul
turi* tamiing as the second step into the
path of progrcsa, and manufacture a>
the last. The mistake in all our deal
ings with the Indians was that we tins
attempted to induce them to make an
immediate change front the life of hunt
ers to that of farmers. If any remnant
id the Indians should be preserved from
the process of extinction so rapidly go
ing 011, the tieueral lielievisl it would
Is- through their adoption of stock-rais
ing as a means of subsistence, for which
a vast extent of country among the
Hocky M Ollll tains, where the uutrioiis
" blue grass " flourishes, was admirably
adapted.

One of the moat remarkable discover
ies sup|S'seil to IK* made by modern
si lence tathe drifting of the stars. Mr.
Kichard A. Proctor, Hisn tui v of the
lvoyal Astronomical Sis-iety, claims the
merit id first suggesting tlic jsissibility 1
of there lieiug in fa-t no ilxetl stars; but .
I'ndessi.r Hoggins is said to liavu first
demonstrated the fact that certain of thr
stars, notably Hirius, are wandering ,
through space with almoat lucnalilile I
rapidity. The uudnlatory light-waves
are the criteria by which this approach
or nas-ssion is fnrutd, and the rate st
which they strike the eye of the ob
server gives the pnsd of the sti.rs sim
tng toward the e*rth or going flow it j
If tli* waves come in qnicker succession
than from a luminous Insly at rest, the
source id light, according to a well- :
known law, is approaching; if, i>li the
iMiitrury, they come in slower suc
cession than from a luminous body at
rest, the sourm- of light is receding.
Not only il's-s this " star ilrift---as Mr.
Proctor it- -take place with single
stars, but whole groups, with rythmic
motion, an> circling among themselves,
sometimes uiifting aileutly, swiftly,
nivatcriously, in a common direction, ]
sometimes inU-rvolvisl in s manlier at

I ke Wheeliarrow.
The Dsnbarv ,V w* nun aava : If
von have occasion tonne s wheelbarrow,
leave it, when you an- through with it,
in frvuit of the house, with the hamllo
toward the door. A whe<fibarrow is the
most complicated thing to fall over on
the face oj,tho earth. A man will fall
over one w hen he would never think of
falling over anvlhing cine ; he never
know when he has got through falling
over if, either ; for it will tangle bin legs
and his arras, turn over with him and
rear np in front of hint, and jtrnt as he
pauses in his profanity to congratulate
himself, it taken a new turn, and aooopa
more skin off hint, nnd he commence*
to evolute anew, aud bump himself on
fresh places. A man never ceases to
fall over a wheelbarrow until it turns
completely on its back, or brings up
against something it cannot upset. It
is the most inoffensive looking object
there is, but is is inure dangerous thsn
a locomotive, and no man is secure with
one unless he ha* a tight hold of it*
handles, mid i* sitting down on mirae
thing. A wheelbarrow ha* it* une*,
without doubt, but in its laiwirc mo
ments it is the great blighting curse on
true dignity.
Ut/droithbia —Mr. George Flaming,
the knghsli veterinarian, as the result
of hi* studies nis>n rabies, or hydru
phokia, nssert* that the disease does not
originate spontaneously more than once
in a thousand rase*. In fact, NO far a*
any actual knowledge goes, we know
nothing of the conditions which pro
duce it, except tlint it is contagions by
inoculation, n* when the virus is intro
duced into the blood by the bite of a
mnl dog. We annume, however, that
it sometime* originates sjaintaneonsly,
in order to explain sudden outbreaks
of the disease in countries where it was
previously unknown, and could not be
trneisl to imjKirtatiou from foreign
iaiula. Tlii* was the cose in Peru in
