But as they stood there clinging to the abutment the waters continued to rise higher and higher, while in the deep darkness they could hear the crashing of trees amid the thunders of bridge timbers that were wildly dashing all around them. 'Ihey had been in this desperate condition for some time, when the lithe girl felt that her strength was gone, and with a wild shriek of terror she ex- claimed “ Kiss me, mother, for I can’t hold any longer!” And with the warm pressure of the mother’s lips upon her cheeks she was swopt away, and was seen no more.

We present a. few extracts, which afford a fair index to the quality of the Whole : * * * Not many of the pictures -â€"-I am sorry to say very Jewâ€"tell their own story ; but some do. The gem of the collec- tion, in my idea, is a picture representing an old, gray-haired man, with his hands tied he. hind his back,standing in front of the lions and tour lionesses. The beasts are evidenta-lly very hungry, and they have slain and eaten a man not very long before. ‘ There is a blood-stained spot on the ground, for I see a human femur (left side), aright tibia, a left humerus, and a. bit of the pelvis lying about. A bit-ofa. scapula has flesh still upon it. All the bones are human. Why: don’t these sewage and starved beasts instantly fly upon and kill this poor old man? Look at that three-year-old lion coming round from - beâ€" hind the others; a. sneaking, oat-like, but magnificent beast, worth £200 ut‘least to our friend Jamrueh, the animal dealer. Look at that old lioness snarling and showing her awlul teeth and spine-covered tongue, and the old lion licking his quivering be- whiskered lips. What is that curious light falling full and glorious upon thdv man? It is not natural, itis not the light 33f the sun or the moon, not yet of the eldetfie‘ light. By Jove! I see. It is “Daniel infiw Lions' Den." Splendidâ€"grand ! I deugrutlilutel the artist. -‘ ’ The young man must be im idiot. Fancy going out to fight a dxagon with pigeon’s wings tied to one’s anklesâ€"see pictureâ€"and with bare legs, like a. Highlander. The young manâ€"he is neither an anatomist nor a butcherâ€"has thrust his swordâ€"not a scien- tific-looking weapon at allâ€"a few inches in- to the dragon’s month just inside the mmus of the left lower jaw. The wound would not hurt the dragon 3 bit, It would simply transfix his parotid gland, if a dragon has a parotid gland. The sword would run well clear of the carotid arteries, and certainly would not touch the beast’s aorta or heart, This is not the way to kill a dragon. I wish somebody would kill a. dragon and let me cast it. If I wanted to kill a dragon I would set a Scotch “stake” or “fly” salmon net for him, or else get my friend Captain Gray, cf Peter- head to come with his whale steamship Eclipse and a. boat’s ore r, or two or three of his l’eterhead whale-harpooners. We would soon polish ofi" Master Dragon, I know. I mustnob forget the dragon's blood in the picture. I long to dip a. microscope slide into it. I wonder what the corpuscles would be like. ‘5 * * “A North American Indian sit- ting quite alone on the prairie. If the painter has not actually been on an American prairie himself, he has taken the scene from a. wonderfully effective plate in ‘Cutlin‘s North American Indiatns.’ Something want- ing to interpret the picture. Let’s see the details. A pair of deer’s horns behind the man (deer horns right for a wonderâ€"Germs Virgimanus), a quiver full of arrows, the man had not been hunting, or there would have been fewer arrows in the quiver ; bow I believe right ; a fire three parts out ; logs of wood much too bigâ€"I don’t see where the Indian could have got such big logs of wood on a prairie. The man is illâ€"~I don’t think he has had an accident, certainly not a mic- ture of a bone, or he would be looking at or attempting to support the iractured limb. He has some internal disease, possibly peri- tonitusâ€" a man with peritonitus could cerâ€" tainly not ride. Other Indians in the dis. tance are going away at a pretty fast pace. I suppose they are going away for the doc- tor. The man’s loose horse is in the van of the Indians. It would have been more po- etical if the painter had made the horse ap- pear unwilling to leave his master, thus shaming the men. I peep at a catalogue of some one near, ‘Left tovDie ’ is the name of the picture. Poor Indian. I wish I was there with my medicine chest, I would try to cure him.

The entire day was spent in preparing ior the grand funeral ob- sequics. ' The streets along the line of the route were beautifully draped in the sad and sor- rowful emblems of mourning, erape and black serge, in long and graceful festoons, interspersed wit: appropriate mottoes, and occasionally a riddled battle flag, fringed with the emblematic black, hung from the houses and waved sadly in the dying breeze of a. Southern summer evening. All the stores, banks, publ‘c buildings, telegraph offices and private dwellings were closed, and even the office of the State Journal, the republican paper, and the post-office, paid the mournlul tribute to the honored dead by closing their doors and hanging out the em- blems of death. Their kinsmen,- the low caste Hindoos, are equally fond of bright colors, equally averse lo fixed habitations ; clever atsnaring wild creatures, chaste within certain wide limits, timid, patient, passionate: crafty at playing upon the credulity of the civilized and scornful of all beliefs, except that it is very good to be where the sun and moon can be seen. They, too, are happy in their way, though'it is not ours. Meantime, it is apity to be too hard on the poor Zingufiof Engâ€" land. They will die out soon enough when the heather and furze have all yielded to wheat and turnips, and when hazelnuts are not to be had without paying. They do very little harm indeed, and contribute to many a rural landscape in_ spling and summer a feature of wild primeval charm. At five o’clock the procession formed on Main street, at Seventeenth, and marched ud main to Monroe Park, and thence out through Laurel street to the cemetery. First in order came a large detachment of police, headed by the municipal authorities, wearing badges of mourning. Then came the band of the First Virginia Regiment, playing the “ Dead March in Saul," that mouinful requiem ofa soldier’s burial. Following came the Colonel of the ] st Regiment and staff officers mounted, at the head of their command, which, with reversed arms, marched to the solemn music and kept step'to the beat of muifled drums. The flags of the regiment were fnrled and draped. Another detachment of police, all comrades of the dead, and then came the most hearts touching spectacleâ€"sixteen wagons, laden with the bones of the dead soldiers who, years ago, marched cheerfully through the same streets en route to the battle-field. The bones and dust in boxes were covered with wreaths, flowers and weeping willow, and as this portion of the processsion met the gaze of the "at concourse of spectators there was scarcely an ;eye that was not dimmed by a tear, and from many of the full and aching hearts of interested persons they flowed copiously. Each wagon was accom- panied by an escort of four soldiers, and next behind the men, whom he led in the battle, came General George E. 1’ickett,com- mander ot the division to whom the dead beâ€" longed. Following him were a long line of (ax-Confederate soldiers, the companions of the dead, and after them came the Society of the Southern Cross Brotherhood wearing their badges. The rear of the procession was brought up by a long line of carriages, extending over a mile. Arriving at Hollyâ€" wood, that city of the dead was thronged with spectators, and, amid the most aprro- priate and impressive ceremonies, the 717 were finally laid at rest There exists, indeed. an old legend that the ancestors of this singular race were the inhabitants of a village in Lower“ Egypt, to which Joseph and Mary came in their flight with the child. The fugitives were refused admission to its inhospitable walls, and thereupon a voice was heard from the sky, crying: “Those who shut’ love out, shall be shut out from love.” Aft r this the doom of perpetual wandering, with ceaseless ill-treat- went from all men, fell upon the offenders and their posterity. The story is pretty, but it is not true. In these dark-skinned Rom- anies we undoubtedly sce veritable Asiatics ; and that incurable love of wild life and free air, which they everywhere display, is the deep-rooted relic of their ancient nomad ex- istence on the hills and plains of India. As soon as the :leaf is on the willow and the sweet-scented blossoms of the Msy tree make their appearance in the hedgerows of England, then the gypsies bestir themselves to get out of their crowded haunts in the large cities. They have inherited the pas- sion for nature from ancestors older than any stock in England. The gypsy is no Egyp- tian, nor Bohemian, nor ancient Christian driven out of the East by the Saracen, as the French tale goes. He is a Hindoo of the aboriginal type ; his :dialeet is full, in every land, of broken words from Indian roots; his hatred of houses, his airy contempt of dirt, his scorn of books and schools, his turn for pilfering, his rooted timidity and cunning, and his addictedness to divination and bla‘ck arts, are all antique legacies irom an'Asiatie source. The Danes call the wan- deret “ Tartars,” the Germans “Heiden” or. heathen, the French " Bohemians,” and their own word “Romany” is corrupted Sanskrit for a."husha.nd.” But all the other names, Zigani, Zingari, Tehingenes, Gitanos and Czigany, are inflections of the right title “ Zineali,” meaning “ Men of India.” He who has seen the Brinjari and Bheel tribes of that peninsula has seen the first kousins of the European gypsies; and the likeness between them and the roving people of Be- loochistan,and at the mouth of the Indus, is perfectly surprising. â€"The Lari of Portsmouth has the honor of being the collateral representative of fir Isaac Newton, and he has generously offered to the University of Cambridge, through the Duke of Dcvonshire (Chancellor of the University), all the papers of Sir Isaac rc- lating to scientific subjects whi.-h his lord- ship has inherited. Lord Portsmouth’s gift is prompted by a feeling that those papers will be more fitly deposited in the library ot the University in which Sir Isaac was so distinguished an ornament than in his own muniment-room. â€"'I‘ he heathen Ohince in Idaho flies mon- ster kites, which in shape, resemble huge spiders, ith and all, and after reaching a considerable hight, messengers, in the shape of butterflies and paper birds, are sent up on the string.

Tebaldo, beside himself with rage, at- tempted to wound her through the gate, and succeeded; the obscurity of the place pre- vented his actions from being obsurved. On her return to her room, the maiden felt a pain in her breast, and uncovering ilr, she found it spotted with a single drop of blood. The pain increased 3 the surgeons who hastened to her assistance, taught by the past, wasted no time in conjecture, but cut- ting deep into the wounded part, extracted the needle before any mischief haul com- menced, and. saved the life of the lady. The state inquisition used every means to dis- cover the hand which dealt those insidious and irresistible blows. The visit of Tebaldo to the convent caused suspicion to full heavily upon him. His house was carefully searched, the infamous invention discovered, and he perished on the gibbet. â€"â€"A letter from a gentleman residing in the township of Loughborough to a fliend of his living in this city, status that on Tuesday last some Indian or Indians stole a child from Kingston. A farmcr allowed them to ride in his wagon ; he noticed the white child, and asking one of the Indians to whom it belonged and from whence.thoy hailed, reâ€" ceived the reply that it had been kidnapped from Kingston. The Indians were then stopping at a house between Kingston and Inverary. The aboveinformation comes from a reliable source, and may be accepta- ble to the parents of the missing child. Ac- cording to the consolidated statutes, chapter 91, any person guilty of decaying or detain- ing a child, under 10 years of age, is liable to conviction for felony, and shall be imâ€" prisoned at hard labor in the penitentiary for any term not less than two yearsâ€"[fing- ston News. Tebaldo waited in disguise at the door of the church in which the maiden whom he loved was about to receive the nuptial bene- diction. Tne assassin sent the slender steel, unperceivcd, into the breast of the bride- groom. The wounded man had no suspicion ofinjury, but was seized with sharp and sud- den pein in the midst of the core- mony; he fainted, and was carried to his own house amid the lamentations of the bridal party. Vain was all the skill of the physician, who could not divine the cause of the strange illness, and in a few days he died. 'l‘ebaldo again demanded the hand of the young maiden from her parents and received a second refusal ; they, too, perished miserably in a few days. The alarm of these deaths, which appeared almost mi- raculous, occasioned, and excited the utmost vigilance of the magistrates; and when, .on close examination of the bodies, the small instrument was found in the gangered flesh, terror was universal ; every one leared for his own life. The maiden thus cruelly or- phaned, had passed the first month of her mourning in a convent7 when Tehaldo, hop- ing to bend her to his will, entreated to speak topher at the‘ gate. Her reply was most decisively in the negative. \The following singular traditirn is related of a key in the collection of curiosities pre- served in the arsenal at Venice. About the year 1600, one of those dangerous men, in whom extraordinary talents are only the fearful source of crime and ,wiekedness be- yond that of ordinary men, came to establish himself a merchant or trader in Venice. The stranger, whose name was Tebaldo, be- came enamored of the daughter of an ancient house, already aflianced to another. He dc- manded her hand in marriage, and was of course rejected. Enraged at this he studied how to be revenged. Profoundly skilled in mechanical arts, he allowed himself no rest until he had invented ‘the most formidable weapon that could be imag- ined. This key was of large size, the handle of which was so constructed that it could be turned with little difliculty. When turned it disclosed a spring which, on pres- sure, launched from the other end a needle or lancet of such subtle fineness that it en. tered the flesh and buricditself there without leaving external trace. â€"In Montreal last year 240 tavern licenses were granted by the License Commissioners, and {)1 refused. These at $89 each netted $21,300, and the quota accruing to the 001‘- puration $9 each, was $2,160 ; the remainder, the bulk sum, fell into the hands of the Gov ernment. The same year grocers’ licmses were issued to the number of 485, which, at $26 (311.01), amounted to $11,125. Of this $8 per issue, $3,560, came into the bands of the City Treasurer. For the present year, up to date, 272 tavern licenses have been granted and 31 refusal The revenue will from this source conse- quently be $24,208,111e city gaining its share 2,448‘ GrOCers’ licenses to the extent of 469 have been granted, bringing in $11,725, the city getting $3,692. Of the latter sort few are refused, two being the total number for last year ; one, so far, for this.
