You succeed in getliug free of the mass. Then pou- start on a run, with the pack ruuning ifter you. Ybu cry out for help. You shriek at the toi of vour voice for succor.

With a scream of terror you co over its edge, and are hurled headlong into tbe dreadful abyss below. Then you awake. You have hit your bead on tbe back of the pew. For a moment there is a dreadful vagueness as to your whereabouts. Tbe next moment brings with it the realization that you are in church. The words of the minister awake you to this con sciousness with awful distinctness. What did you do in that dream? is a qucrry tbat takes hold of you with frightful fore?. Did you throw youri arms in the air? D:d you kick the bench? Did yu scream out? The perspiration gathered in great drops on yur face, and sharp flashes ofj heat shoot along vour spine, while there is sinking enough in tbe pit of vour stomach to start a shaft in a gold mine. You dare not look up. Ydu can imagine every eye in the assembly is turned upon you, wait ing to confront yoa face to face. It is a dreadful feeling so dreadful that it finally becomes unbearable and finally you raise your head, and gradually, but furtively, glance about you. The congregation is as yoa left them.

"It concerns us I mean mother and myself" replied Miss Buffius, with a vivid blusb. "This paragraph I happen to have with me; and, as it particularly indicates the object of my visit, I will ask you to read it again." As she spoke, the younglady drew a newspaper from her pocket aud pointed out the paragraph alluded to, which she bad underlined with a pencil. 1 readmit with renewed in terest : "THE BI FI IN?

In the meantime, however, Mrs. Buffius, who has manifested for- several months past strong symptoms of in sanity, has been deemed incapable of managing her own affairs; she was yesterday, through the ad rice of her attending physician, removed to the Insitn't Iletreat, at Bioomiagdale.

' Isn't he a delightful man?" This question was addressed to me by a lady in company, concerning a gen tleman who had rendered himself, during tbe evening, particularly agreeable. Before I answer that question, I said, I would like to see him at home. I would like to know if when he jars his wife's feelings, he says, "beg pardon" as smilingly Bnd promptly us wl:?n be stepped upon youder lady's dress.

That is tbe test I am sorry to say that some of our most agreea ble society meu, who could, by no p.if.-ibilitv, be guihv of rudeness abroad, could never be suspected in their own hou tiling else. The man who will iuva riiibly meet other ladies with "bow very well you are looking!" will often utver, from one day to another, take uotiee of his own wife's appearance, or if so, only to fiud fault. How bright that borne woold be to bis wile with one-half the courtesy and toler ation he invariably shows to stran gers. "Allow me to differ" he blandly remarks to au opponent iih whom he argues iu company. "Pshaw what do yoa know cbout it?" he says at his owu fireside aud to his wife.

For over four year there has been iu use in the lu diau Piidge i-b nfi of lbe Philadelphia coa) aud iron cmpauy, this district, a wooden pp', about sir inches ia diameter, made of iuch boards nailed together, w hich served to carry waier from oue of tbe rings iu the shaft to the lower level. The rings are boxe3 arouud the hides of the shaft hich catch tbe water coming out of tbe roefc, slate, or coal, and are put ia to prevent the water from falling down and making a regular shower baib of the shaft. At the ring in question a large spring ia tbe tdaie, about thirty feet below the primrose vein, had been struck, the water from which is apparently aa pure as crystal. Some four months since it was found tbat this wooded pipe bad be come so clogged with the reddish brown sediment that is deposited by all mine water, that tbe open space in it was not more thau two inches ia diameter, and not large enough to carry off the water from tbe ring. Consequently a new pipe was put iu, and tbe old one, nearly closed with tbe sediment adhering to its sides, was left standing. The water was tbeu turned into the new pipe and cut off from tbe old one, w hich is some fifty feet or overiu length. After re maining in the shaft without any water passing through it for over four months, the greater pirt of this old pipe was taken out. and when broken open lbe wonderful phenomenon pre sented itself tbat tbe sediment wa gradually cbangiug into what appear ed to be anthracite coal. About a half incb of the inside of the sedi ment lining tbe pipe bad changed iu tocral, and the remainder was also ! gradually changing, the ouly portions ' of tbe sediment 'Little!'' did I say!

Then be marvels when he comes back in sub lime forgctfuluess of tie patt that the familiar eye does not brighten at his coming, or the familiar voice of welcome. Then, on inquiry, if he is told of the rough word, be says: "O-o-h! that's it is it? Xow it isu't pos.-ioie you gave mat a second thought?
