the rush ot gtem was so sudden that
a struggle on your part to save your
self from their violence. Yon strike
ut ami kick out and squirm and
wrench yourself. It is a desperate
struggle. Every muscle in your
bodv stands out like whip cords,
every nerve is stretched to its utmost.
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. Blind
ly galloping along you come unex
pectedly to a precipice. You make a
heiculeaa effort to save yourself.
But it is toe late. 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

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. Not an eye is turned to
wards yon, and you might believe
that you had not been asleep at all

leg accompanied by all the poignant
sensation of tbat operation. Dan-

"Never before," said I, deferential

meet with an article ia the Il-rald,
referring to soma trouble a'jjut the
Buffins estate."
"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

"THE BI FI IN? ESTATE ALt.EoED IN

Several years ago, a wealthy mer
chant, doing business in I ispenure

some property, worth about half a
million, to his widow, Mrs. Jane
Buffius. A clause provided, tbat, iu
case of her marriage or premature

of the property should reiertto Mr.
Ralph Doric until Kleaaor, his only
daughter, should become of age. 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

To ease myself of an unpleasant
suspicion, I inquired :
"When did Eleanor leave home?"
"About six mouths ago," replied
Mr. Dorle, staring at me with ao odd
expression of surprise.
His reply mystined me more than

soled myself for this treble disaster
by summarily discharging the gen

pecied, laughed iu bis sleeve at my
simplicity and credulity.
I dou't know whether I could prove
it, but it was enough to sec that f. was
the laughing stock of every middling
lawyer and pettifogger from Chanf

' 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

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

year there has been iu use in the lu

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
