For a moment silence fell upon all: then suddenly Mr. Watterson 's voice, hoarse and thin, rang out J alove the noise of the storm, and the war of the waters: whs an ice jam, piled block upon tcrowu I'rukt imu u uu curer, uuiu block: until" it towered high in the! men and women; but Jerry wasted "A thousand dollars to the man who will cut that timber!" The women in the group looked at each other and shuddered; the men fixed their eves on the dam but no one replied. The rear of the angry stream increased, and the waters deepened beneath the mill walls. "Two thousand dollars !" Th? proprietor's voice was hoarser than before; but the women closed their lips firmly and shook their heads. The men moved a little un easily, and one drew his hand across bis mouth, as it he would have spoken; but still no one replied, and the white foam from the imprisoned river was tossed by the winds against the lower windows of the mills, while the corners of the buildings were already beginning to crumble and waste iway before the grinding, merciless ice. "Three thou" "I will go!" The two voices sounded so closed together that it was not until the crowd turned theireyes upward and saw the one who had answered, that thev fairly understood the reply. Kunnii'g from a third story win dow of the lower mill directly across the river, above the dam, was a long endless chain used to convey power from the mighty water wheel of the U11JI3 to the machinery of a little box factory located upon the oppo site bluff. This chain was at rest now, and there appeared at the win dow near it the figure of a boy, in a blue blouse carrying in his hands an ax. Ho it was who said, "I will go !; When the people saw him, and realized what he was about to at tempt (for already he had fastened a rope around his body and was nassine the other end over the chain.

"It's Jerry, sir, Jerry the bobbin Iniy," said a man, stepping forward. "An orphan, sir, an' strivin' to care for his sick sister." "Jerry ! Is it Jerry?" cried Mr. Watterson, turning quickly. "Then he shall not go," and he waved Ids hand and shouted toward the win dow: "Go back! Go back !" . But already it was too late, for, with a little cry, the boy dropped from hi3 perch and hung swinging above the roaring, grinding ice, the rope which supported him sliding slowly downward along the chain toward the centre of the dam. The breathless crowd, the stricken pro prietor, could only watch and wait now. Slowly and unevenly the looped rope from which Jerry was suspend ed slipped link by link, down the sagging chain: slowly his feet near ed the great mass of ragged ice be neath. At length, when directly over the center of the dam, just above the long beam which held the jam, allowing the rope to slide quick ly through his hand, he dropped j imberhehad comei lightly unon the tim to cut.

' erald. The Difference in Girl. When the world is so full of young people who are too smart, and who are continually asserting themselves, and showing that they want to have something to say, it is pleasant to occasionally meet a real modest yonng person, who would rather suffer inconvenience, and torture, even, than to make any fuss. This was noticed more particularly dur ing the last rainy day, when the! heavens seemed to be weeping over the loss ot the sun, which had notition occurred. been seen at its "accustomed haunts for over a month. An old man got into a street car with his umbrella as wet as it is possible for an um brella to be. The seats were all full and be closed his umbrella and.put the point down on the lloor, as he supposed, but in fact he put it right into the low shoe of one of those sweet, modest girls, right on to her stocking, and the dirty water more than poured down into the shoe. At first she looked as thongh she would move her foot, and call his attention to what he was doing, but she seemed to relent, and with a re - signed expression, as though she hoped he was not going to ride many blocks or perhaps somebody would get out and give him a seat, she looked out of the window. Once she moved her head as though she would look down at her shoe and see how near full of water it wtis, but again she thought better of it, and looked across the car at the man with a wart on his nose. Altera few minutes she began to shiver, which was conclusive evidence to some that the water was coming up around her instep, and gradually overflowing the banks. She looked as though she feared that if she spoke to the man about it he would think her very forward, and that she was guilty of an impropriety in speaking to a stranger without an introduction. Finally she became nervous, and when a girl l.' gir.s to get nervous something ha got to be done. Siie blushed and touched him on the hand that held the umbrella handle with her little fluttering fin ger and said: .May 1 ask you, sir, without seeming to be impolite, to do me a favor?"' "Why, certainly, mi.-s." said the old man, as he looked down at her. "What is it?" "Will vou please take vour um- ! brel!a out of mY shoe. fur a n,- meni, anu lei me mice me sr:oe ou and empty it?" "For heaven's sake, miss, was my umbrella in your shoe? I beg par don," and he took it out. -It's of no consequence at all," saitl the little lady, as she turned tip her shoe on the side and let the black cambric water out "There, you can put it right back, or if you would prefer a dry shoe for your umbrella you can put it in this oth er one." But the old man blushed and moved off to the end of the car, and stepped on another girl's foot. The other girl was not that kind ol a re- 1:1 I r . 1 t. 1. . u i lllllln I.JI.1U II 1 lillluil. tillu env Ji'WJV I . u1 utt a?

The dispatches from Alexandria enlarge upon the wonderful devo tion and extraordinary bravery of the gunner on board one 01 the ! British vessels who picked up a snell with a burning tuse and im mersed it in a bucket of water. This was a corageous act, but it was not "more gallant than anj'thing of the sort ever before chronicled." Dur. ing our own war for the Union hun ; dreds of cases as deserving of men- At Stone River when Croft s Brig- age of Palmer's Division was pur suing the routed rebels on the L'd of January, they came suddenly on a reserve battery that opened on them with surprising fury. Tle men were ordered to lie down, :md dropped into the solt mini 01 a cornfield. The rebel artillerymen had the range, however, and poured shot and shell into the advance line in a way that tore some poor unfortunates in pieces and covered nearly every one with mud. In the midst of the ter rific fusilade a shell struck between 1 two men lvinsr flat on the ground so ! near to their heads as to stun both. j Dozens of men, the bravest there, closed their eyes in anticipation of the terrible scene that wotml follow the explosion. But one of the sol diers at whose shoulder the smok ing shell had struck, digging up a handful of mud, held it aloft for a moment while he cooly said: "Ten to one, boys, she don't bust," and with a sort of gleeful agility he brought his great wad of mud down on the shell smoking in the shallow hole, and "she uidnt bust." No one thought George Hunt, of Co. C, first Kentucky Infantry, a hero lor doing that. but possibly he ranked as high as the courageous gunner I on the Alexandria. ,l Another case: When Sherman was ! getting ready for his move on At lanta great quantities of amunition were stored in the railroad sheds at Be.-aca. One day in the midst of a thunder storm that dismantled the camp, the amunition building was struck by lightning. Hundreds of the bravest soldiers ran blindly away ns thev saw the boxes of shell thrown about, saw the guards drop as if shot and saw smoke issuing from the top of the great pile of ex plosives. But one man, clear-eyed and cool-headed, saw that the smoke came from tow in which the shells were packed, and, climbing to the top. seized the burning mass, and holding it up shouted: "All right, boys; no fireworks this time." llis intrepidity and alertness saved the amunition and possibly many lives, and his record should be kept as green as that of the gallant gunner of the Alexandria.

Arabi Pasha, or Ourabi-Bey, as the Arabs call him, is the son of a prominent personage in the prov ince of Charkirrh, in Lower Egypt, and is about forty-five years old.

Charles Carleton Coffin, in his "Boys of "01," relates the following incident connected with the Poto mac Army's march north, shortly before the Battle cf Gettysburg. When the Fifth Corps passed through the town of Liberty, Md., a farmer rode, into the village mounted on a farm wagon. His load wis covered with taUe-eloths. cakes, "What do you ask for a loaf ?" "I haven't any to sell." said the farmer. -Haven t any Ut M.li ? What are you here lor : The farmer made no reply, "See here, old man, won't ye sell me a hunk of your gingerbread?" said the soldier, producing an old wallet. "'o" "Well, you're a man to be proud of, ain't you ? I've a mind to tip you out of your old bread-cart. It would serve you right. Here we are march ing all night and all day to protect your property, and we haven t had any breakfast, and may not have any dinner. You're a pretty set around here any way," said the sol dier. A crow d of soldier? had gathered, and others expressed their indigna tion. After quietly listening to them, with a half-smiling face for a few minutes, the old farmer stood up on his wagon seat, took off the table-cloths, and replied : "I didnt bring my bread here to sell, boys, ily wife and daughters sat up all night to bake it for you, and you're welcome to all I've got. f and I wish I had ten times as much. Help yourselves V "Hurrah ! hurrah ! hurrah ?" "Good for vou P "You're worth the fighting for P "Three cheers for the old man !" "Three more for the old lady P "Three more for the girls P They threw up their caps and fairly danced for joy. The bread and cakes were gone in a twinkling. "See here, mv friend, I take back all the bard words I said about you." said the first soldier, shaking hands with the farmer, who sat on his wagon half laughing, and yet so pleased and happy that he could do something for the soldier, that he was almost as much inclined to cry.
