ed up it would have been involving a
useless loss of life for the Third and

therefore given to cease firing. AH

some tea tnousiad c:;ie oatans were

Every one tlept where he stood
la.-t night, a vigilant lookout being
maintained among the troops nearest
tbe fort, as the Afghans have ere
now proved themselves capable of
plucky and determined night attacks.
Before daybreak this moruingtbe ad
vance cautiously began.
No fire, howevej. opened from Ali
Mu.-jid, and, advancing cautiously,
lest a trap should be laid, our troops
approached the fort and fouad tbat
tbe garrison had stolen away in tbe
nigbt, leaving tbeir guns, tent a, aud
stores of all kiuds behind them. It
ai soon found that Maepberson bad
trained tbe Kobtas Kob, and tbat
Tytler had come down to tbe village
hi tbe pass behind Ali Mu-juid.
These facts accounted fr tbe flight
of tbe Afifbins, which must have
been conducted in wonderful sileuce
to escape the ears of our advanced
sentries.

the other day a summons com

bearer;
"1 hat Bettles it as far as you are
concerned, but Magoin must come
here and show cause why be should
not be a juror."
"He caa't," was tbe reply; "he's
too bofv. If be did come be would
make things hot for voa. Besides,
you would have to send a derrick
and a truck to bring him lie turns

Tbe commissioner was incredulous

Witness : He said tbat be was

ibe pronoun he, did be 7 lie didn't
say he was druuk."
Witness : "Ob, yes he aid be said
he was drunk; be acknowledged tbe

Court (getting impatient at tbe
witness's stupidity) : "Yon don't un
derstand me at all; I want tbe words
as he uttered them ; didn't he say, I
was drunk?"
Wiiuess, deprecatingly : "Ob, no,
your honor. He didn't say you were
druuk ; I wouldn't allow any man to
charge tbat upon you ia my pres

comprehend at all ; his honor means,
did not tbe prisoner say, 'I was
drunk?'"
Witness, reflectively : "Well, he
might have said yon was drnnk, but I
didn't bear him."
Attorney for the prisoner: "What
the Court desires is to have yon state
the prisoner's own words, preserving
tbe precise fotm of the pronoun that
he made nee of in reply. Was it first

and both hia father and grandfather
were robbers by profession. Ilia

those of his family, aud ce waa ad
mired as much ai he was feared. The
reckless courage with which be at
tacked the Police, and even military
escorts, on tbe high road in broad
daylight, his generosity toward the
poor, and bis gallantry toward wo
men made bim a sort of national he

the wealthier class ventured to travel
in Hungary without paying him
tribute. His bands were well armed
and organized, and tbe szegony lege-
nuck, (poor fellow), aa the bandits

many sympathizers and accomplices
among tbe peasantry.
He was Erst imprisoned in 1836,
but eseapod in tbe following year by
tbe assistance of hia mistress, a
peasant womaa named Kati, whose
husband he had killed by blowing
his brains out with a pistol.
During the revolution of 1343,
Rotza Sander was pardoned by Kos

A collision between a steamship
and a aria-antic fisb. took place the
other day in the vicinity of tbe Tong
Tong Islands. Tbe Messageries
Maritimes steamer Anadyr, on itB
voyage to Shanghai, was suddenly
brought to a stop by a violent shock.
Tbo cause of tbe collision was fonnd
to be an enormous ray or flat fisb,
estimated by those on board to weigh
from 8,000 to 10,000 pounds. The
monster was lying asleep on the top
of the water when ita repose was
rudely disturbed by a "dig in tbe
ribs" from the stem .1 tbe steamer.
After tbe first alaru b-d subsided,
efforts were made to haul ibe creat
ure on board; but, owing to ita an
wieldioess, ali attempts in this direc
tion proved fruitless, and tbe Dab,
doubtless even more "shaken" than
tbe passengers on the boat, reluctant
ly allowed to move off and seek such
remedies for the injuries it had sus
tained, as are to be procured in tbe
mysterious deep.

In Delhi, India, we saw the cele
brated basket trick, which is some
times poorly imitated by professional
jugglers ia this country. A native
produced a basket and a blanket, and
after permitting as to see that they
contained nothing, inverted the bas
ket on tbe ground and covered i. with
the blanket. We paid no attention
to hia incantations, but kept our eyes
fixed on the basket and the space
around it,- resolved tbat no boy
hould be smuggled iuto it or out of
it without seeiog him. What made
the trick still mure wonderful was
the fact that the performer stood in a
clear space, and we could look down
upon bim as he proceeded. He went
through tbe customary act of thrust
iog a sword through tbe interstices
of the basket, wbeu the cries of a boy
were beard as if io mortal pain issu
ing from ibe basket. Turning it
over, tbere was a boy apparently
uonurt aud seemiogly erjoying the
fun. Restoring tbe basket, with the
blanket over it. to its former posi
tion, with the boy nuder it, tbe jug
gler went tbrougb the samo incanta
tions, aud ibeu running bis sword
nuder tbj babkot, tossed it away fiom
bim. Tumiug over the basket, no
boy was to be seen. So far as any
thing could bo observed tbere was no
potsiold place in wbien tbe little fel
low could be coucealed. Another
