THE TBIAM AND BOM4N0E OF A 1OIIE-

IIUN'B urn.

No Amerioan journalist ie betterknown than Samuel L. Olemens (" MarkTwain "). His career is spioed with astrong romantics vein that, aside fromthe gennine humor of his works, lendsto them an additional interest. TheBoston 'limes has indulged in a personalreminisoenoe of Mark, which is givenbelow;

Samuel LaDghorne Clemens, betterknown as " Mark Twain," was born inMonroe oounty, Mo., in 1695. Hisparents soon afterward removed to St.Louis, Olemens learned the Mississippiriver as pilot when a young man, pre-viously, however, passing some time ina Western printing office, where lie ac-quired the art of setting type and" scribbling."

He was first beard from on the Pacificelope in the Territorial Enterprise,Virginia Oity, Nev., in 1863, as a oorre-•pondent from Esmeralda district, whorehe was mining, under the signature of"Josh." The humor of his letterstickled the Washoeites and made theEnterprise songht after, especially asits oolumns were enlivened by articlesfrom " DandeQuille," Captain Double-day and others. Wanting an assistant"looal," the proprietors of the paperbethought them that the Eamemkla"Josh" might fill the bill. TheyBontfor him, and he oame. He was attiredIn dilapidated and not over-clean gar-ments, had a freedom of manner, and, ina greater degree than subsequently,that "property" drawl in his speech,which, m colloqniul intercourse, he re-lied on, or appeared to do BO, for some ofhis distinctive individuality. He tookreadily to reporting the varying fortunesof tho mining community, and strength-ened tbe offioiol force of the Enterprinc.With liboral remuneration for hiB work,his personal appearauoe gradually im-proved. His store clothes were of bet-ter out, and he accented his conversationleas with oatha.

Becoming dissatisfied with his nomdeplume, "Josh," he assumed insteadthat of " Mark Twain," whioh he retainsat the present day, and by whioh ho iaknown the world over. The name isreminiscent of his old pilot life on thMississippi, and simply is one of tunleadsman's cries when sounding m tothe depth of water. If his lend chowsit, he shouts for the pilot's gnidauc*"mark twain," or, in ordinary speeoh,the lead indicates a depth of two fath-

oms.Daring his servioe with the Kntcr-

prise, and afterward with tho Cull inSan Kranoisco, Mr. Clemens is Bnid tohave proved himself averse to personalexertion in collecting news. Such inthe testimony of the proprietors ofthose papers, He preferred to drawnpon his imagination, and ask his readers to take the flowera of fnnoy vathorthan the fruits of faot. He had a snr-prising faculty for adaptation, and oouldrevamp a story in suoh a way as almost todeceive the author. His " JumpingFrog,'1 published in 1867, IB an instancein point, Sam. Seabough, formerly ofthe Stockton Independent and the Sac-ramento Union, had previonsly put thisstory- into print nnd no attention wasattracted to it. Clemens treated it inhis own peculiar way, and set the wholeooast laughing, even the men who toldit to him, at Angel's oamp or Murphy's.Olemens left Nevada in 1864, snd wentto San Francisco, where he wroteletters for the Enterprise, playedas reporter on the Call, contributedto the Era, the Californian, andvarious other papers. A good friendto Clemens was the late JamesAnthony of the Sacramento Union.When •he'intimated that he would liketo go to the Sandwich islands, Mr. An-thony furnished him with the means, inconsideration of whioh a certain numberof letters were .to be contributed to theUnion on the/social, commercial andpolitical condition of the Hawaiiangroup. I t was a fortunate trip for the'••grant Bohemian. While before hedid nothing with his pen but provoke asmile, and was considered, by those whoread him but did not know mm person-ally, to b8 an embodiment of "Laugh-ter holding both his sides/1 he had thegood sense to know that here was anoooasion where the laugh did not oomein. He accordingly wrote a series ofsolid and readable articles on the islandB

-that attraotod the attention of the mer-cantile world. They were eagerly readin the Union, und discussed in the SanFrandscb chamber of commerce.

' "' Fata favored him in another way also.>The celebrated .dipper ship Hornet.

r Captain Mitchell, belonging to Grinnel).,Mu>tnrn A Co., of New York, was burn-ed at ihe Pacific equatorial line duringWr. Clemens' visit to Honolulu, and a

"boafloid of those on board arrived,•after forty-two days of perilous voyag-

We had glanced over aome of thepages in the meantime, and found awell-construoted piece of work. Clem-ens stood with hie back to the fire, in ailond of vapor arising from his dryinglothes, watching us intently.

"Mark," said we, looking up,' whioh do yon want most, at present,

"How was that?""He mistook our trip for a spree."A great portion of this leoturo wus

uggested in a work written by a Meth-odist missionary formerly in the islands.The graphic description of the volcanof Mauna Loa in eruption belongs to

;he missionary entirely.The turning point in Mr. OlemenB1

life was made in 1868, when ho wont tothe holy land with the excursionists onthe steamship Quaker City. He liadbeen in New York but a short timo,cting as correspondent for the Alta,

when the opportunity occurred to makethis trip, which proved eventually tobe a most fortnnate one for our Bohe-mian. The proprietors of the Alta hadbeen paying so mnoh per letter, inwhioh Mr. Olemens served up New Yorkin a serio-comic way, when thej wereastonished to receive an urgent requestto advanoe $1,200 to enable him to gobroad with the " Innocents "—the oonriideration for this to be correspondencerom all points of interest visited. He

wrote five or six letteru to the New YorkTribune dnring the same voyage. After

little hesitation, natural under theircumstances, Mr. Clemens' request

was granted, and he joiuod the excur-ionists. To the moral and religiousieople who made np this party,'hisiresence was undesirable, for be ourriediia mining manners with him and spoke;he Washoe vernacular. It happened;hnt among the passengers there was anild gentleman from Elmira, New York,Lamed Laogdon, who was aeoompanied

by his son, a mere boy, and daughter.This boy conoeived a kind of frendshipfor Mr. OlomenB. H» introduced hisfriend to his Bister, Miss Olivia L. Lang-don, and we may add, to his fate. Theold gentleman fought rather shyof the Washoe Bohemian's society; butthe young lady looked on him kindly,and the light of her eyes purified hislife. It was a case of love at first sight,ao far as Mr. Olemens wus ooneerued,and the influence of the feeling waBbeneficial. He began to live cleanly,in the moral senso, abandoned carilsaud gambling, and drink, and guve npscoffing at the religious opinions of hisfellow-passengers. Ho wanted to flpd.grace with the lady of his love and withhor father. Before the voyage was overhe asked Mr. Langdon for Olivia; andhe refusal he received chilled, bnt did

not dishearteil him. He simply told thesomewhat indignant parent that hewould wait: but he was determined tomarry his daughter. It was Baid otJohn Poster, the English writer, and atone time editor of the London Examin-er, that his love-letters were the mostremarkable ever penned. He called hisamous essays "love-letters, beoauseihey were written at the instigation of a

young lady whom he wished to make hiswife, but who, knowing his habitualindolence, and, at the same time hisgreat talent, refuted to listen to his ad-dresses till he had distinguished him,-Belt. Ho did BO, and won a bride whowas proud of him. Mr. Clemens' caseB hardly a parallel to this, but is simi-lar in some respects. We think his"Innocents Abroad" was a labor of

love in a degree. It made him fame asa humorous writer, and while all theworld was talking about him and hisbook, he oame to Elmira, accompaniedby an editorial friend from Cleveland,aud again renewed his suit for MissLangdon's hand. This time the oldgentleman listened with moracompla-o noy. The young lady's brother plead-ed lor Olemens, his Cleveland friend,who knew Mr. Lnngdon very well, alsoadvooated his olaims. Bat more power-ful pleaders than either of these was theyoung lady's own haart, and, for herfather, the evidenoes ot capacity Mr.Olemena had given, and also of re-formation of life. A family meetingwas held, and into its charmedcircle the expectant bridegroom glad'ly stepped, ' exchanging Bohemianism for respectability, poverty forwealth, the loneliness of bachelorhoodfor the society of married life. He in-tended that the ohange should be com.plete, for on some of the envelopes con-taining wedding cards, sent to formerfriends in California and Nevada, -headded to the address the significantwords," Good-bye."

What the individual gains in respecta-bility and. oomiort he loses in the pio<turesqne [and dramatio interest.Clemens has proved a kind and faithfulhusband, ana the love that had so ro-mantio a beginning has stood the tegtand been oemented by all these years.When at home, Mr. Clemens resides ina magnificent mansion at Hartfoid,Conn,; bnt a great deal of his time oilate years has been spent in Europe.He is there at present with a Hartfordclergyman, in WIOBO society he greatlydelights.

Two Misdirected JLettcrs.Tho followiug curious oases of misdi-

:eoted letters ocenrred in the New Yorkpostoffiee: A letter from Ireland corrediieoted to "My Mother.New York, Amer-ica." Of course it was an impossibilitya tell to whom the letter belonged, andpreparations were made to Bend it tothe dead-letter office. The same day,however, a woman oalled at the generallelivery window nnd asked for a letterTom her son. The gentleman who hasjharge of the deciphering bureau wasimmediately struok with tho coincidence,ind sent for the letter alluded to above,

asked the woman where her eonlived, and when she gave the name ofthe town it was found to be the samo asthe pestmark on the letter. Other in-quiries justified the official in deliver-ing the letter to the woman, but he inlisted that she should open it there, andn examination it was discovered that it

was from her son, and that Blie was theperson for whom it was intended. Ofconnje, if she had asked for a* letter ad-1

dressed her name tbe answer wonld havebeen that there was 'no suoh letter.Among other curious letters received afew days ago was one addressed to " J.H. ohnson, wagon and plough maker;all kinds of work promptly attended to;America." The writer had evidentlybeen instructed to address in reply ac-cording to tho printed letter-head onwhioh the communication had beenwritten, and had literally followed in-structions, except in giving the name ofthe town and State.

Bedouin Agility.During a leoture in Pittsburgh, Rev-

. O. Young narrated in his own imagi.native and humorous way how an ao-tive Bedouin Arab once earned a silverhilling from him. He was describing

the pyramids, and especially the largest,the pyramid of Cheops, It is built ofluge stones, whioh arc arranged so aso form broad Bteps six feet high. The

mauner of ascent IB this: Two Bedouinstand beside him and lift his feet to the

step, while a third supports his headThis cne strikes the traveler betweenhe shoulders with his head, ami in-itautly ho is standing npon the platform)f the steps. In this way he reaches•lie top, whioh is 500 feet high, and un-ess ho has much power of resistance he

will reach it in splinters. While stand-ing on the platform, at the summit, aBedouin said to Mr. Young that if hewoHld give him a shilling he wonld rundown the pyramid, across the sand 200feet to another pyramid, climb it to itcmmmit, and back again where be wasitandiog; and if he did not accomplishhe feat within ten minutes, he wuuld

not expect the money.Not believing it possible that it could

be done, Mr. Yuuug agreed to the propo-sition, and took out his watch to notebe time. Tbe Bedonin started off withightuiog speed, bounding from step totep down the steep descent m if his

body wore made of India robber. Ifhe missed bis footing once, he would bedasheJ to pieces. He reached theground in safety, sped across the uand(into whioh Mr. Young said ho wouldhave sunk to his ankles), hardly totiohing ii, ascended the other pyramid anddown again with the agility of a chamois,ocruEs the sand once more, and up the500 feet of Oheopu to the platform. Thetime he took to perform this perilousjourney was exactly nine minutes and ahalf. Mr. Yonng remarked that therewere never more than two or tbree ofhe tribe who were able to accomplish

this extraordinary and imminently-dan-gerous feat, and they farnislied a funeralabont once a year.

How to Utilise Old Fruit Dais,Perhaps one of the most appropriate

uses ot an old fruit can that can be de-vised is to make it contribute to .thegrowth of new fruit to fill now oans.This is done in the following mannerThe can is pierced with one or more pinholes, and then sunk in the earth nearthe roots of the etrawberry or tomato orother plants. The pin holes are to be ofsuch size that when the oan is filled withwater the fluid oan only escape into theground very slowly. Thus a quart can,properly arranged, will extend its irriga-tion to, the plant for a period of severaldays; the can ia then refilled.

STTPPIiEMB 1ST T .FIRST ANNUAL MESSAGE

—OF—

s.Governor of New Jersey.

more forcibly, I present tbe followingtabular statements, obtained from officialsources, and whieh may be regarded asauthentio as far as they go:

Gentlemen of ihe Senate and Qenera,Assembly: r

In compliance with the requirement ofthe constitution, I have tbe honor to Inybefore you a statement of the conditionof the State. As a correct teBt of themanner in which the affairs of the com-monwealth are administered, and as oneof the most important snbjeots for yonconsideration, I first invite your atten-tion to the state of the finances as setforth in the clear and able reperts of thecomptroller and treasurer, whioh wilafford you very great gratification by theresults shown therein. No advantagewould be gained by incorporating in thismessage tbe various details of tbe sub-ject. 1 shall, therefore, touch only uponsome of the most important points, leav-ing to jour zeal and sense of duty theoxamiDHtion of all the- minor matterstreated of. The finanoial condition \smost satisf aotory. You will observe thatthe indebtedness of the State has beendecreased within the year' by six hun-dred thousand dollars ($600,000),' and^hat, as all temporary loans and the un-paid "tfalanoeso^ former appropriationshave betn discharged, the existing debtconsists solely of the outstanding bondsof the war loan, and now amonnts to twomillion one hundred and ninety-six thou-sand three hundred dollars ($2,196,800).

As the sinking fond now reaches thesum of one million four hundred andfifty-eight thousand eight hundred- andfifty-two dollars and thirty-four oentB(81,458,852.84), and as one hundredthousand dollars (8100,000) of • the prin-cipal is paid off each year, this debt maybe regarded as a small and temporarybnrden. Under the law of the last ses-sion requiring the sinking fund to pro-vide hereaf tbr. for the aooraing interest,and for ten thorn and dollars ($10,000)of the anunally maturing prinoipal, theState fund, in other words the Statetaxation, ie materially relieved, and willhenceforth furnish only ninety thousanddollars ($90,000) each year. In thecourse of a few years, should nothingoccur to interrupt the natural workingof the system, the State fund can be stillfurther relieved, and no long time willelapse beibre.the sinking fund will fur-nish all the means required to meet theprinoipal and interest of the debt

While the receipts from taxes havefallen off Borne forty-one thousand dol-lars ($41,000), and those peculiar to theyear nearly twenty thousand dollars(820,000), the receipts from income—i.«., from taxes on corporations, interestfind dividends, State prison receipts,Hues, licenses, etc., have increased someeighty-one thousand dollars ($81,000),BOthat the total receipts exceed those, ofthe hut year by uljjut twenty .thousanddollars (820,000). Oa the other hand,in ojuaequenee of the cure exercised bythe lust Legislature in regard to appro-priations, and from other causes, theexpenditures proper to the year werenearly four hundred thousand dollars(8100,000) lens than those of the preced-ing year, so that it has been possible topay off all the floating debt, and enterthe now year with a credit balance ofnearly OJO hundred and twenty thousanddollars (8120,000).

I invite yonr especial attention to thefacts and reasoning by which the comp-troller demonstrates the practicabilityof reducing the State tax from one millto ouc-half of one mill on the dollar. Ido not consider a greater reduction pru-dent at present, but I do most earnestlyrecommend that this reduction—viz,: toone-half of one mill on the dollar— bemade.

If nothing unforeseen ucaurs, and nolarge nncxpeotcd appropriations aremadb, it is more than probable that afurther reduction will be practicableand proper in another year.

While it id a source of congratulationthat we can reduce the State tax one-half, I would impress upon you, and,through you, npon the citizens of theState, how small a portion it formsof the entire taxation.

Remembering that the State tax pro-per now oalla for one dollar (81) onevery one thousand dollars ($1,000) ofvaluation, and that, if the reduction re-oommendol is made, it will oall'foronly fifty oonta on each thousand dol-lars of valuation, I would ask the tax-payers of the State to examine their taxbills and determine for themselves howmuch more'Hhey pay for bounty, town-ship and municipal purposes than torthe expenses of-the State.

this comparison, it must be rememberedthat the State school tax of .(wo millisupon the dollar, or two dollars on eaohthousand of valuation, returns direotlyto the people in ihe form of1 a pro rdiadistributioa to the public, Wools,ofthe various districts; so that it—theState sohool tax-has really nothingwhatever to do with the expenditures of!the State government, and should be!separated from the State .tar'' proper inmaking the oomparis'bn

In order to QtrRst

Tbe " amonnt taxable," eicept in the caseof I'aternon, it derived from the Abatrwt ofltatablee, reported in 1878.

In cohneotion with this table it mustie mentioned that the bonded debt of

the State, less the sinking fund, is aboutseven hundred thousand dollars (.8700, r000); that it has no floating debt; thatthe amount to be raised during the pres-ent year by taxation is five hundred andsixty-six thousand dollars (8666,000);that the population of the State by thecensus of 1875 is one million nineteenthousand four hundred and .thirteen(1,019,413);' that the net State debt isseventy (70) cents per capita, and Statetaxation for 1878 is fifty-five (55) centsper capita: and that, if the legislaturemakes the reduction recommended inthis message, the State taxation for 1879will be twenty-seven and a half (27})cents per capita.

I regret that it has been impossible toobtain, in season for this message, nc-curateBtitements of the financial affairsof the counties and townships, but it isbelieved that, as a general rule, theflnanoinl condition of Ihe rural oouutiesis good.• The above facts show that while thereshould,' of course, always be a carefulsupervision over the expenditures of the'State government, the true direotion in,\rtunh to look for reform and a large de-crease1 of bdtlBy is fa the; minor snb-

When the flnanoiiiliaffiuri of an in-dividti»rcr u'oom.muriity'grte; W disbrdor

lie nJethods of

meeling the difnValty, viz., an ueffort to reduce the expenditures an

' honest endsavora to increase the receipts,I have already said thst the State gov-

ernment has done ite beet by the exerciseoi wise economy to afford all the reliefin its power, and I feel sure that yonwill give your cordial support to eontinned efforts in the eame direotion,

It is also within the power of theState to do something toward increasingthe wealth of the people by aiding intheir industrial eduoation, by spreadinginformation as to our undeveloped re-sonrcea, by endeavoring to give a properdireotion to the energies of the workingman and the employment of capital, andby affording at least a moral support toindustries and undertakings which promote the general prosperity.

But when the State has done all in itspower, very little will have been effectedin comparison with the magnitude ofthe necessities of the cose.

The people must realize the faot thatthis work is their own; and that it is asmuch each man's affair as the manage-ment of the business whioh yields himhis daily support; and that unless theytake it np in solemn earnest very little'good oan be accomplished.

There are some politioal principles sosimple that many men habitually disre-gard them as nnworthy of notice, yetso weighty that on them depend theprosperity of nations, the. stability offorms of government.

The theory upon which our nationalgovernment is based, recognizeB tbesovereignty of tbe States ; the generalgovernment possessing no powers be-yond those conferred upon it by theconstitution ; each State retaining everypower and attribute of sovereignty notexpressly conoeded to the general gov-ernment. The State government o.'New Jersey exercises all the sovereignpowers of the people, excepting snch ashave been granted to the United States,and suoh as the people of the State havein the constitution, forbidden it to exer-oise. The form of our State constitution,differing from that of other States in theunion, recognizes in the organized gov-

rnment a right to exeroiee all powersif government and limits the exorcise byjpccifio prohibitions.

The powers conferred on the generalgovernment were snob, as it was believedjonld be wisely exercised for the goodf nil the people of the States, occupying

vast territories, having diverse climates,mployments and interests.Powers are reserved to the State of

New Jersey and permitted to be exer-cised by the State government whieh,t in supposed, can be wisely exeroised)r one government for tbe beat inter-sts of all the people of a single State.

Still other powers, prohibited, to theState government, are reserved to beexercised by the people themselves inocalities and even in small communities,

and by some provisions of the constitu-ion the powers of municipal bodies,

onoe created or recognized by the gov-ernment, are guarded from speciallegislation affecting them.

The theory of republican governmentin New Jersey is, and always has been,be oorrect theory of reserving to theeople, as far as possible, local self-

government. I t has been intended thatin purse and person tbe people shouldeel most direotly the looal governingrawer, less direotly the State power,Mid less directly still the power of the;eneral government.

Tuns, if the people govern themselvess they ought, honestly and intelligent-y, they have the opportunity to reform

most easily abuses affecting most direct-y their persons and property. Theeople of a municipality, or a township,

or example, know their own needB; theyknow how muoh they can afford to ex-

end for local purposes; they know theharaoter of their neighbors, and can

determine who posBess the qualificationsor local offices, and con best hold themto a just responsibility. Eaoh successivetep in the politioal organization shouldiress as lightly as possible npon thatleueath it, and never make itself felt

unnecessarily. The greatest abuseswhich have ooourred, and the greatest

ecessity for reform and economy whichlow exist, are in the minor polit'oal'ubdivisions of the State.

Experience has ehown that many ofhese abuses in our own and other States

have arisen from attempts of the Stateovernment to exercise control through-

3oramis8iouors not appointed or desiredby the moes of the people, and that thevils resulting from snoh commissions

aro for greater than those resulting fromthe apathy or neglect of tho peoplethemselves.

T i e only Bafe course is to leave suchthings where they properly belong, andppeal to those direotly interested to

take the management into their ownhands.

In this and other States it is npon theminor subdivisions, such as the county,township and municipality, thattho con-trol of the most important and immedi-

te interests of the citizens properly de-olves; as, for example, the construc-

tion and core of roads-and streets, 1 holighting and police of oities, the detec-

on, trial and pnniahment of oriminals;u brief, the proteotion of person androperty. Consequently the oipoDdi-ure'i are greater than-those for the gen-

eral puipot-cj of the State, and it isrule that where moot money is expendedthere is tbe greatest probability of ex-travagance and dishonesty, and th<greatest need of unremitting watohfal-nejp. Unhappily it is too often the faotthat in precisely such cases there ismoBtcarelessness and lack of supervision onthe part of those interested,

I cannot too strongly urge upon thepeople of this State the necessity ocarefully preserving their cjunty andmunicipal rights and of faithfully per-forming every duty corresponding tothose rights. Every right and privilegeof self-government abstracted from thesesubdivisions is a blow against republicaninstitutions; and every oitizen who neg-lects to eieroiie the privileges and per-form the duties growing out ot thoaerights, does muoh to weaken and subvert;he institutions on whioh the stability of

onr government and the prosperity ofthe people depend.

So important is this Bubject that Imust repeat what I said one .year ngo,and that is, to restore order to the finan-cial affairs of the municipalities andtownships, 'to reduoe expenditures, in-crease receipts, prevent waste and mal-versation, and preserve the financialgood name of localities Buffering under a

urden too heavy to be borne, it isabsolutely necessary that every oitizenshould take an active and intelligentinterest in the oonoerns of looal govern-ment. If they will attend the primaryilectione, do their best to eeoure thelominntion of honest and oapable candi-lates for all offioes, work for the election

of such nominees, oppose all others, andcarefully watch and nsnist tho officerselectod.'it will soon be fonnd that a longitu'cle linn been made in the denireddirection.

Nor, does this concern only thosepossessed of a certain amount of property,and puying largely in direct taxes; it iseven more the affair of the workingmou,who apparently give but little in theshape of direct taxes, for they pay atlcaHt their full share in the inorenar ofrents, the enhanced prices of all theycoumime, and the scarcity of employ-ment, resulting from high taxation whichdrives away business and manufactures.

It is by the active and honest offortsof ull oliiBbOS of onr citizens in thuirlocal governments that we must look forrelief from the principal burdens whiohoppresn onr people. In view of themagnitude of the interests at stake inthese loonl matters, party divisionsshould give way in favor of economy,honesty and intelligence on tho onehand, as against extravagance, dis-honesty and incompetence on the other.

In connection with the subject of thenuances, I would ask your attention tothe lack of uniformity in tho methodsof valuation and assessment practiced indifferent parts of the Statfl, and to thodelay, which, I am informed, often oc-curs, on the part of township col-lectors in paying over their quotas tothe county collectors.

In making tho examination whioh hasled mo to some of the conclusions alreadygiven, T have been strongly impressedby the difficulty of promptly obtainingfull information as to the linnnoiul af-fairs of the eounties, cities, townships,etc., and to the necessity for this infor-mation being in tbe possession of thelegislature to enable it to determine themerits of proposed measures involvingthe interests of the people and thesmnller communities. I would, there-fore, respectfully ask your considerationof the propriety of requiring, under suit-able penalties, that the proper officialsof all the subdivisions of the State, in-cluding thetownBhips, shall every year re-port to the comptroller their full financialcondition, giving the funded and floatingdebt, with the parposoB for which con-tracted, rates of interest, time when thodebts fall due, nature and conditions ofthe sinking funds, if any, annual ex-penses of every kind,, rate of tax, etc.,etc., and that the comptroller submit theresult to the legislature in a properlytabulated form. Not only would thisinformation be useful to the legislature,but it is of great importance to the peo-ple, and will greatly assist them in con-trolling expenditures.

PUBLIC EDUCATION,

With the progress of years this vitalquestion more and more engages the at-tention of thoughtful men in all oivilizedcountries. Vnryfew.-if any, intelligentpersons can now be found who deny thatit is the right-and duty of tbe govern-ment, whatever its form may be, to takesome part in this interesting question.

As our institutions are based upon thesupposition that all males of mature ageparticipate in the affairs of government,as oleotors at least, all will agree thatthe government should in some way as-sure itself that all citizens possess BUS-fioient intelligence to enable them toperform properly at least their lowestduties as citizens. It is just hero thatopinions diverge, for some would arrestthe hand of the Stale at this point, whileothers would have it furnish to all amore ot less oomplete and finished edu-cation. As is so often the owe, it isprobable that the true solution is to befound in adopting a medium oonrse. Itwill probably be oonoeded that it is theduty of the State to insirt that all ohil-dren shall be- thoroughly injtruoted inin reading, writing, composition and

arithmetic, with a pr tty accurate knowedgo of the geography, constitution andhistory of ourown oountry, together witha general acquaintance with tbe history•nd geography of other countries. Thusmuch, at least, in the way of prepara-tion for their political duties.

Bnt if tho duty of the State terminate!here, its interests do not, and the ques-tion at once arises as to how far it cansafely go, or, perhaps, what is the leoeiit can properly do, in the direction, olpreparing its youth to become usefuland industrious citizens, skilled workmen, producers of wealth.

Thin is a vast subject, of infinite importance, and BO muoh is said on bothsides that our progress toward its solu-tion must be slow, cautious and experi-mental.

It wonld appear to lie a eound propo-sition that, having readied the limit ofthe subjects as to the necessity of whichall agree, further progress in eduoationshould, in a great measure, be. regula-ted by the probable future pursuits ofthe majority of the pupils in flie differ-iiit localities.

For example, in an agricultural region,where most of the boys will probably be-come farmers, it would sooin natural to;urn their studies ia the direotion of'arming pursuits.

Not that the public schools can t'ur-lish the means of making them accom-

plished agriculturists, but they might betaught enough of the fundamental prin-oiples of the soience of agriculture tosnable them afteiward to pursue theitndy of agricultural chemistry andiconomy, enough of the principles ofnechunios to enable them to learn howa detect the difference between a goodind bml-machine, enough of the prinei->le8 of engineering to ennblo them after-

to learn the best method of drain-ing and tho use of materials iu ninilconstruction, etc.

K >, in the lorgecities, where manufao-irc4 and the mechanical arts flourish,

Slieir iustrnotiuu might well be turnedn those direjlioiiH without in any case.ttompting to convert the puhlio intoecliuical schools. I can Hee no harm,nit much good, as probably reunitingrom devoting a little timo in the pnblioohoolx to the praotical iiiHtructimi of

girls in some of those brancheu ofdomestio industry which ean easily betaught and are moat certain to proveuseful to them in tho houneholdH overwhich they will eventually be called topreside.

The purpose of public uahoal ednoa-ion onght to be to furnish the boys andiris with tho tools of education, andach them how to use them in eduoat-

ng themselves for their various pursuitsu life.

In considering the snbjeot of turningducation ever so slightly in the direo-

tion of the f nture pursuits of the pnpiln,we should not loose sight of the elevat-ing effect npon tho pursuits themselves.

For instance, the farmer's boy, whoseideas of farming are limited to the meremanual labor of practical agrionltnre,will take a very different view of itwhen he learns that there iB snch athing as the soiencn of agrioulture,and that many soienoes find wide andprootioal application in his every-day,work. When be discovers that tbe in-telligent farmer has an ample field forstudy, and that to obtain BUOCOSB hismind must co operate with his handshe will learn to love and respeot his oc-cupation, and will be more contented tolold to it. The same is true with regardo the mechanical arts and trades.

Those who recognize tho indispositionof so many young Amerioans to followcallings involving mannal labor, will re-alize the vast importance of any measuretending to elovate the agricultural andmechanical vocations, to bring the edu-cated mind to bear npon the work of thehands, and to Bupply that great lack ofskilful and aooomolished American work-

whioh has long been widelyingmenfelt.

It is clearly good political economy inhe State whioh educates its children,to moke that eduoation tend, in somemeasure at least, to the benefit of thecommercial and other industries of the

itate.New Jersey bos many great industries,

employing thousands of her citizens andenriching her cities and villages. Someof these induttriei are, at tbo presentmoment, in condition, to be extended,their importance and employing powersvastly iuoreasol by judioions legislationon the subjoot of education.

It ii now universally rcoDgm>.ol thatndnstriul drawing—i.e., drawing as ap-plied to the tirt» and trades, notland-ioape drawing—is the basis whioh un-lorlies the vast majority of the pursuits>f our people, and that it can profitably>e made a part of tho course in our pub-ic school*. -

Tho difficulty is in the. look of oom-ictent teachers, and, as tho first step, Ihink that instruction ia thU branchihonld at onoe be introduced in the

normal and model schools, with pro-vision for epeolal olosses composed ofteaohera fiom the schools of the large

ties, so that, as soon as possible, thesystem may bo introduced, oimmencingwith the cities and manufacturing cen-ters. • ; • . , . ' • • . / •-• '

In" addition t'i UI'H, and without wait-ag for iU ao.'omplishmont, we uto.l

technical s-.-hcols in varicin parts ofState.

For instance, iu South Jersey one is re-quired in the interests ot the glassmak-ers of that region; in Pateisjn they arcnee l e i in the interest of the Bilk andootton faotories and tbe great machin<shops of that oity. In Trenton a schoolis needed immediately for the benefit olthe potteries, where boys and girls maybe instructed in modeling, (iesigningand decorating, as well as in the makingof pottery itself; for the potteries ofTrenton have now reaohed a point wherethey daily suffer from the lack of a suffi-cient number of skilled employee*, andif properly encouraged they-will soondevelop into one of the largest and mostimportant interests of the oountry.

Technical schools ore needed also inother parts of the State, if our agriculture and manufactures are to pro-gress and reach suob a point ot exoel-lenoe as to give them marked superiority.

I have'given a great deal of time andthought to this subject, and have reach-ed the conclusion that such schools wilvastly increase the prosperity of the in-dustrial pursuits of the State, and thatno bettor investment can bo made by itthan by devoting a moderate nnin tosuch purposes.

I think that a general law should bopassed encouraging the organization ofinch schools by local association, and

appropriating a moderate mitn towardaiding thorn when properly constituted,

These sohools should, I think, be sup-ported paitly by the State, partly bythose in whose interests they are cre-ated, partly, perhaps, by the mnnioi.palities, and partly oy moderate tuitionfecB- for the instruction should not inall oases be gratuitous.

I would also ask your favorable oou-lideration of two modifications suggonU'dby the superintendent of public instruc-tion iu his report, namely, a change intho time of election (if the nohool truu-

and a modification of the law ineguril to the so-oa'led throe hundredmil fifty dollar districts. An eiamina-ion into the fac.ti of these cases will. Iin confident, convince you that the

We have one hundred and twenty-six126) children of this class who are boug i duoated at th« expense of the State;if these fifty-nice (69) are at the institu-iioa on Wellington Height?, in Newfork city, and six (6) at the institutionfor the improved instruction in t he Bamecity; twenty-three (28) areat Fordham;twiLty-fO9en in Philadelphia; fire (5)itliuffalo and six (0) at the Whipploloin-*.

jem.1JLIN1).

Wo have twenty-five (26) blind chil-dren under instruction at tbe institutionin New York city, and fourteen (14) inPhiladelphia. With regard to them Ihivo the same remarks to make as withrrferenoe to the feeble minded and thedeaf and dumb.

The general conclusion whioh I havereaohed in regard to these classes ofcases is, that the time has not yet ar-rived when we would be justified inestablishing special institutions for theircare and instruction in the State. Theyare as kindly treated and as well in-fitniotod as they con be under any oir-onmstances, and at a much, smaller costthan would be possible wore we toorganize establishments of our own.The time may oomo when, from tbeincrease in-the number of those unfor-tunate ohildren, it will be neoesaary totake into consideration the propriety oforganizing our own institutions for theinstruction, of the feeble-minded, blindand deaf mutes, bnt that time has notyet arrived. In any event, I am stronglyinclined to the opinion that, instead ofestablishing State institutions for theseclasses, it would be for better to enoou-rage the formation of associations forthe.purpose, aiding them by paying fortbe support and instruction of. thosesent by the State. I am glad to be ableto state that the reports of theindlvidnalconduct of the children who are recipi-ents of the charity ol the State in theseinstitutions is, as a rule, .very favorable,and that nearly all show a commendabledesire, to profit by tho opportunitiesafforded them. Asa further incentiveto exertion I have thought it proper togrant permits for their admission for oneyoar'only, renewable at the expirationof this term if. the report in eaoh case isfavorable, in order that both the ohildrenand their parents may feel that theiroontinuanoe at the institution dependsnpon their good behavior and improve-ment.

Appreci-ating the importance of the eubjeot, anddesirous that all concerned in its propersolution might have tbe benefit of thebest professional ad rice, I requested theState board of health to undertake acareful investigation of the subject. Ihave great satisfaction in laying beforeyou, as one of the' documents accompany-ing the report of that body, a very valu-able, paper npon the snbjeot in question.The- high standing of the gentlemencomposing the board will, no doubt,seonre your careful attention to theirreport, which strongly commends itselfto my judgment.

REFORM SCHOOL AT J/HESBURO.I have good reason to believe this to

be 11 useful institution, and am satisfiedthat-it is well conducted. Although con-vinced, from personal examination, thattho accommodation is too limited for tbenumber of inmates, I felt bound to "ad-vise i the board of control to withhold1 heir assent to the proposal of the tnm-t«BB to erect another family house fromtheir earnings, as it seemed improper tomake any extension of tbe establishmentwithout the formal oonsent of the legis-lature. As tbe subjeot will probably bebrought before you during this session,it seems proper for me to Mate that tnebuildings are not suftlo.ent for tbe pro-per accommodation of tbe pri sent ocon-pant», but I am of the opinion that thereIB room for reasonable doubt as to thebeet method of curing the evil. Thequestion far the ligislatare to dec de is,whether it is well t ) enter upon a sys-tem of indefinite extension, or whetherit IB advisable to limit the sphereof action of the instituticn by morecarefully defining the classes of caseBwhich may be Bint tlieie.

Tbe coune is w ellselected and taught; the graduate arenimirabiy fitted to become nselul work-ers in the cause of industrial soience.There nre forty (40) free asbo'anhipa.atthis institution; the rules regulat:ng nd-misairn to these soholal ships w.ll befound in the rtport of the trnstee,s.Fhore arc also in the same report tables,diowing the limited extent to whichhis pnv lege has been availed cf in the>ast. The advantagoj offered by thislehoolare veiy great, and the instruc-tion is precisely what is most needed iumany parts of the State, so that it is nptat all creditable that so little advantagebas heretofore been taken of the privi-lege.

All the free scholarships shonld beconstantly full. I tally agree with theboard of visitors in their remarks nponthis subject, aid also invite your per-sonal co-operation in your respectivecounties to accomplish this desirableobject. I cordially indorse their state-ment in regard to the college farm, andentertain no donbt that it shonld bemade, in oonneoKon with the collegelaboratories, the main or central Btationof a series of experimental agriculturalstations throughout the State. The oon-dition ot agrioulture in tbiB State is notalways what it Bhould be, and to introdaoea better system of cultivation we needagricultural schools, as well BB experi-mental stations in various parts of theState, where the farmers of each vicinitycon see for themselves the effects pro-duced by fertilizers, modes of cultiva-tion, and selection ot oropB adapted tothe soil of eaoh locality.. This systemhas been fully and successfully tried iaalmost all parts ot Europe.

A reoent survey of eonth and west Jer-sey by the State geologist has developed'the faot tbat there is very muoh more.good land there, available for cultivation,nan had been generally supposed. The

STATE PRISON.

From frequent inspection of the Stateprison, I am satisfied that the n.lmiuia-trut.ou is excellent The discipline isadmirable ; although it is rigid, as mustnecessarily be the case, it is neitherharsh nor cruel, but just and unvarying,and us kind as the circumetauccs permit.Tbe food of tbe prisoners is as good as itongbt to be, and thorough cleauliness isenforced. I do not think that any well-founded complaint can be made againstthe 'iffioers of tbe prison, who are, so faras 1 urn able to judge, of a high class andemineEt;y llttod for their difficult work.

The new wing iH a model construction,and it would be difficult to imagine anyimprovement upon it, as regards ueonr-ity, veuttlation, health and convenience.It is witii satisfaction that I invite atten-tion to the excellent qnalily of the Ma-terials and work employed, and TO thefnet ttiat it won completed and placed inuse for some six thousand dollars ($6,000)less than the appropriation at the dis-posal of the commissioners, woo areentitled to great credit for the able andhonest performance of their responsibleduties.

Some ol the old wings are far fromwhat they ought to be, and tke newwing does not give all the accommoda-tion required. AB the present is afavorable time for snob work, I invitethe consideration of tlie leginhture tothe propriety of altering another of tbeold.wiuga, on precistly tbe same plan asthat followed for tbe wing last conBtruot-ed.

The expense would be lens than tbutof the last, us inure of tbe old wallswonld be available, nnd the cost of laborand unterial is dimin:»bed. The ar-rangements for cooking, winning andthe supply of gas are on too limited ascale for HIB present needs of Ihe in-stitution, and it wonld be. adviniable toauthorize tha expenditure of a Buffloientaum to enlarge ttia kitcben, laundry andgas work?.

I invite your attention to the reportof the in&ptetors of Hie prison, especi-ally to their rein irks upon the questionof prison labjr; although not now [ire-pared to recommend any practical planfor an improvement of trie present sys-tem, I cannot avoid expressing the oon-viotion that it is defective in throwinga]] olassos of prisoners too much to-gether, There are doubtless oases ofyoung men and others convicted of afirst offence, not hardened criminals andnot belonging to the criminal classes,who might advantageously be confinedelsewhere than in the State prison. Atsome fnture time I may take occasion torevert to thiB snbjeot.

TJnfortunitely, we must anticipate thenecessity of a further increase in thenumber of conviots, and it is very olearthat the present orowded area should beenlarged, I therefore recommend thatthe present State arsenal be turned overto the State prison, and that the prisonwall be continued so as to inclose thewhole of the area thus gained. One ofthe arsenal buildings win readily beconverted,, at a trifling expense, into aprison ohapel, whjoh is very muohneeded. Perhaps some of the otherbuildings oan be made available forprison use, and the free space gained

.trill be of great advantage to the healthof the prisoners, as well as arJoroting'thespace necessary to introduce other kinds

...of. labor, than the only one nowpraoticod,and thus be of great advantage to the

seasons; and the replenishing of. tbelakes and rivers with food fish, is a wiseand profitable measure.

I trust flint the labors of t ie commis-sioners will be approved, and that ampleprovision will be made for "the continu-ance of the work.

I invite atten'ion to Die report of thecommissioners for a full explanation oftbe object of tbe commission, and a de-tni ed statement of their operation,

NATIONAL GUARD.

The national guard of the State ihasrendered good service in the past, andwill do BO whenever called upon in thefuture. It is an honorable and necessaryinstitution, which merits the oonfldenceand kind feeling of all worthy citizens,and should be maintained in Baoh forceand in suoh efficiency as to enable it toprYierve the peace within the boarders)f tbe State without the necessity of in-voking the assistance of the general gov<eriiment or of any of the other States.

ItBCondition has clairuod my especialcare. During the past spring many per-eons apprehended a recurrence of thetroubles of Ihe preceding year, so that Ifelt it my duty to place the nationalguard in thorough condition for service.This has been done, and we have onhand, ready for immediate use, the campequipage, tqnipments and ammunitionrequired to supply the division. Undertbe law of the last session two (2) com-punies have been mustered in for servicewitli Gatling guns. The regiments ofthe national guard are in good conditionexcept with regard to the use of theirweapons. The brief opportunities theyenjoyed for target practice at tbe Brintonrange have been of marked service, butmuoh yet remains to be done, and, nodonbt, the practice of the coming sum-mer will effect a very great improvement.Nothing can be much more helpleBS anduseless than a soldier armed with abreech-loading rifle which he has notbeen tanght to use. Target practice isquite as important as instruction in tac-tics It iB absolutely necesBary to re-quire it of the national guard if they areto be of the slightest use in real service,nnd it must be regarded as a permanentand indispensable part of their instruc-tion which must be repeated with eachrecurring year. I think that it is neo-oessary to establish the position of in-spector general of rifle practice, andthere shonld also be an assistant inspec-tor for each brigade.

It would be advisable to enoonrageemulation among the national .guard byauthorizing the issue of'prizes for marks-manship.

The reports of the adjutant general,quartermaster general, inspector generaland the acting Inspector general of riflepractice, will furnish all the detailed in-formation required in reference to thenational guard,

BORBAD OP BTATI8I08,

Late in tbe last session of the legisla-ture a law was passed constituting thisbureau. From the nature of the case,great difficulties have been encounterediu the initiatory work, for, on the partboth of employers and employees therehas boon no little distrust, apathy andunwillingness to co-operate. Neverthe-less, more has been accomplished thanwas the case with tbe Massachusettsbureau during the first year of its exist-ence, and there is good reason to believethat the resnlta of the labors of the com-ing year will be-much more satisfactory.

there oan be little doubt, and I thinkthat much good onght eventually toresult from the establishment of thebureau.

We hiive BO many undeveloped re-sources in the State that it is importanttliut there should be some bureau spo-oiully charged with collecting informa-tion in regard to them, and conveying itto those whom it interests, For example.I have already Btated that tho geologicalnuivey has ascertained the fact that therei-> much more available forming land insouth Jersey than bod been supposed; Ihope that turough the bureau of slatisti"s information oon<?erning the qnali-ties, quantity and location vl this land.

mainly to the ceramlo art, bnt also tothe glass making, furniture, tissues, etc.Arrangements will be made in the libraryto enable artists and designers to makesuch studies and oopie* as they wish.But beyond this ii ia.very desirable thatthere should'be "established a smallmuseum or collection of the,character-istic and good specimens ofporcelain and glass to serve as" mod.and studies. I would advise a small ap-propriation to lay the foundation ofsuch a collection, whioh will prove ofinfinite value to our future interests.

What has been done, and what I nowrecommend for the pottery and glass io-tereste should also be done for other in-dustries, including the agricultural, forthere is no sounder polioy for a govern-ment than to do all in its power to en-courage industry, and thus give employ-ment both' to capita! and llibor. Andthere is no State more favorably situ-ated than our own for the rapid andfavorable development of industry,

Let me suy, also, that it has beenfound necessary by governments in otherparts of the world to do precisely what Ihave recommended in order to creata anddevelop similar industries. The wonder-ful development of English artistic anduseful work in recent years is due tojust such government aid, providedthrough the Sooth Kensington innscuir.and pther similar agencies. I ask forno new thing, but only urge that whichtbe almost uuiveraal experience of otheroonntries proves to be neceFsary, andwhich it will be a grave mistake for usto delay currying into effeot.

The St ate spends a great deal of moneyupon charitable and other necessaiypurposes, and it wonld form an excep-tion to the rule if it did not sometimesBpend money upon unnecessary pur-poses, There is no doubt that it conwell afford to expend the very smallamount necessary for the purpose ofgivjng a new impetus to industry, ofincreasing the skill and resources ol tbeworking men and women, and greatlywidening the field for Inbor. The ob-ject to be accomplished is in the inter-esta of both capital an 1 labor, and willgo far toward drawing them more closelytogether and adding to the true pros-perity of both. The tendenoy of thetimes in to increase the demand forskilled labor and to make that de-mand more constant; it is in theinterest of the working classes to givethem every reasonable opportunity forinstruction and employment, and I feelit my duty and pleasure to urge everypracticable and reasonable measurewhioh tends in that direction,

OOSOhVSIOX,

lu conclusion let mo return to thesubject which occupied uu enrly part ofthis message, aud urge n careful Btudyof tbe ennui's ivbiob have brought disas-ter upon some of our cities, and oppres-sive burdens upon not n few townships.It is comparatively enny now to ascertainwhat errors or crimes of omission andcommission, what disregard of the die.tntea of prudence or integrity, what eva-sions of good laws, what aotion of badln^have brought about a state of thingswhich all good men regret. There willprobably be no more favorable oppor-tunity in ihe future to collect nnd ar-range for use the dati on which to basewise and well-weighed general laws forthe government of oitiea, which, if theyennnot repair the injuries of the past,will, at least, arrest the tvil where it is,and prevent the recurrence of similarnotion whoa our people shall be onoemore carried away by too prosperouswinds.

There are certainly sound generalprinciples which may be applied in al:

similar oases to guard the financial in-terests of the smaller communities, andrender it difflonlt, if not possible, fordesigning or too sanguine men to involve cities and townships in expendi-tures too great for their resources, or inadvance of existing necessities.

OHAP. HJU OATBKaAo Of TH1 VUI/HJBM.

Sixteen days had pawed since CaptainSt. Olair's adventure, and the night ofthe 5th of November found him Blowlypacing the street whore it had occurred.

As he stood musing, hidden by theshadow of a projecting oorneyjfYwo Af-ghans oame slowly up tBe desertedBtreet. f

Just as they passed him, he heard onesay to the other :

"All is well, then: for the hill tribesore with us to a man il Akbar Shan bntlift bis finger."

"It is said that the khan wonld haveheld back," rejoined the other, "for heknew that the Feriu ghees (Europeans)are strong; but when he heard thatthese dogs (may Allah consume them I)had intuited his own daughter,Gtilejaz,wben she oame hither in the last moonwith his message to the chiefs of theoity, he swore that not a man pf the un-believers should escape; and he willkeep his oath I"

Aud the speaker's voioe was lost in

St. Glair's heart grew chill withinhim as he listened. His worst sns-pioions were now fully confirmed, andthe benumbing sense of secret treachery(of all things the most abhorrent to abrave man) oppressed him like a[ightmare.Scarcely knowing what he did, he

stepped forth as if to follow the twoconspirators, and found himself faoe tofsce with Quleyaz herself t

There she stood, in the ghostly twi-light—oalm and beautiful as ever, bntwith a sembre light in her large darkeyes, suoh as one sees in those of the.hungry tiger, when, after a long andweary cirouit through the jungle, hesees the deer which he has been track-ing fairly within reach at last.

" Feringhee," she Baid, taking hisband, " you showed me kindness onoe,and an Afghan never forgets either goodor evil. Death is waiting for the Eng-lish hoBt, aud I have come to save youere it be too late."

" It is you, tben, who have betrayedus ?" Baid Herbert, witli an intensity ofsooia which oo words can convey.

The taunt etrnok home. In on in-stant the tender, dinging woman sprangnp into an offenled queen.

"Betrayed I" echoed she fiercely."Is it treachery to. aid my own raceagainst its enemies? Why did theFeringhees ootne hither to waste oarvalleys and burn our homes? Whyhave they taken our own king from us,and set up in his stead a dog unworthyto tie an Afghan's sandals ? But woe to

with a look ofjob."

here's a pretty

"You call yonrselveB Englishmen?"cried the officer, in a voice almost inar-tioulate with passion. " Is this how yottkeep up the honor of the old flag IYou Bhall hear of this to-morrow morn-ing, be assured of that I Be off withyon I"

The crestfallen brawlers slunk awaywithout a word.

Then tbe rescued girl took her pro-tector's hand - in both her own, andpressed it lightly to her forehead, withan almost royal dignity, which, in onesoorcely beyond tbe years of childhood,astonished even the nnimaginntive Eng-lishman.

Though voted a model officer by bissuperiors,, and. an insensible brute bythe ladies of the Peshawur garrison,Captain St. Glojr was not yet so thor-oughly " pijTe-clay " as to have lost hisappreciation of feminine charms; an'he could not but own that this youngbeauty of the wilderness, with the firepfber.. Afghan. Wood i n her deep, lus-trous eyeB, and the supple grace of theOriental in every line of ber perfectfigure, made snoh a picture as he hadseldom seen.

In spite of himself, his voioe softenedas he asked, in her own language:

"Have they hurt' yon, my poorchild?"

"I would have hurt them, had theynot snatched away my knife," answeredthe Aighanne, proudly, as she pointedto the blood drops that bad fallen fromher assailant's wound. " The daughterof Akbar Khan knows how to defendhoreelf!"

"Akbar Khan!" echoed St. Clair,recalling with a sense of vague uneasinetB for whioh he could not himself ao-oount, the name of the terrible chiefwhose influence among the hill tribeswas only second to that of the Ameerhimself. "But how oame yon here,then, when your father is faraway intho south?"

I oame—to visit—a friend of myfather's," said thegirlwitha momentaryhesitation wbioh did not escape herquestioner.

"She'slying, the little fox I" thonghlhe j '.'but it's no business of mine."

" I was going back," she continued" to the friends who are waiting for mein yonder village, but I found the oitygates shut'1 '1 "If that is your only diffloulty," saidtho captain, "it is soon mended. Oomiwithme." '

A few minute* brought them to theeastern gate, and UroworcM to tho sen-try onffloed to open it,

A« th» girl pMMd through tho r|e«p

Jpue _,,nuly '.fvDed - fw» wpwt luuir wiu* «thrill oftningled'bitterneai and delight,that the Afghans bad i nrposeiy sparedhis life, and that they bad done so be-cause he was the man whom their greatprince's daughter secretly loved.

Meanwhile the course of events wentinexorably on. On the fifth of January,in the depth of the terrible Afghan win-ter, the forlorn army—two-thirds ofwhich were men reared amid the burn-ing heat of India—filed through the gateof Oabnl, wearied, dejeoted.hall-starved,ill-supplied with ammunition, to com-menoe its long march of death.

For a time, hoWever, it seemed u ifthe asBuranoe of safety were really tobe kept They passed the great plainwithont firing a shot or seeing the faoeof an enemy, and even the most expe-rienced officers began to hope that, afterall, their worst apprehensions mightprove unfounded.

But they little ;knew the manwith whom they bad to deaj. AkbarKhan was not one to let slip the preywhioh ha had onee ensnared, and thejaws of death were already gaping forevery man of Ihe ill-fated army.

In the gray of a gloomy winter morn,ing, they oame in sight of the pass ofKoord'-Oabul, throngh whioh lay theirshortest roote tp India. At the firstglimpse of the block, tomb-lik,e gorge,shut in by frowning precipioes, overwhioh brooded a weird, unearthly si-lence, the boldest felt their hearts sink,but it was too lato now to draw baok.Bank on rank, with the ghostly mistolosing around them like a shrond, thedoomed host went down into the valleyof death.

And then, in one moment, tbe tragedybegan.

Far and wide the air was rent withthe Afghan war-ahout, and each rook,each thicket, .each hollow, was oneblaee and crackle of muskotry, everybullet telling fatally upon the helplessmass below.

Surprised and outnumbered, tlieEnglish still stood their gionnd man-fully, and attempted to return the fire,but against ambushed marksmen hnn-dreds of feet overhead, what could theydo ? In a moment nil was one whirl offire aud smoke and hideous uproar; yellsof rage, shrieks of agony, flavnge curses,the shouts of oUioers, the neighing olfrightened horses, the crash of fallingrooks, the groans of the wounded anddying, all mingling in dismal oboruswith the thunder of the battle—bloodflowing like water, and death comingblindly, no man knew whence or how.

What need to dwell on tbe multipliedhorrors of that fatal day?-how the en-trapped men, famished, wonnded, hope-less of escape, fought stubbornly to thelast; how the worn-out pffioers, withtheir swords dropping from their frost-bitten bands, still cheered on theirfainting men as gallantly as ever; howone handful of heroes fought their way

gthem! Before the full moon shallhave spent her light, the dogs shall lickthe blood of every feringhee in Oabul I "

Herbert shrank back appalled, sobideouBly changed was that beautifulfaoe by the sudden tempest of passion.But this movement of aversion oheokedher rage in mid-curreut, and the warm,womanly heart beneath assorted itselfonce more.

"Do not be angry with me," shewhispered, pleadingly ; " no one shallharm, you while I live. Hear me—theEnglish are many and mighty, but whatavails the tiger's strength when he isonce in tbe toils? Every leaf on yon-der hills is an Afghan warrior, everytwig a loaded rifle. Escape if you can;I will guide you out of the city, and bidmy friends keep you safe till all is over.Why should you perish in vain ?"

As she spoke, there oame over berhearer's noble face a smile of grand andcommanding scorn. He drew np bistow.-ring ilgnre to its full height, andmet her beseeching eyes unflirchinglyas he replied :

" Do you ask me to desert my com-rades in their sorest neeJ, just that Imay save my own life,? Thank yon—snoh meanness does not run in ourblood, If we are to die, we will die likebrothers, Bboulder to shoulder, strikinghard and deep to the lost, with the oldEnglish flag flying overhead I"

Tbe girl looked at him—a look whioh,through all the horrors that were tocome, he never forgot. Grief, anger,tenderness, wondering admiration, wereall mingled in the momentary flash ofthesis marvelous eyes. Then she pressedhis hand passionately to her lips andvas gone.

Ha 1 What was that sudden glare thatbroke out over the whole eastern eide ofthe town 1 And what could be themeaning of that dull, distant roar, likea far-off Boa, swelling ever louder andlouder, till the ear could distinguish thesharp oraokle of ransketry, the crush offalling buildings, the clamor of countlessvoices, and high over all the terriblewar shout, " Allah Akbar I"—God isvictorious.

Just at that moment four soldiers, tornand blood-atained, oame marching past,carrying a helpless, ghastly, dust-be-grimed figure, in which even St. ClairHimself could scarcely recognize hisonce gay and dandified junior Nontenant.

"It's all np, old boy," said the lad,faintly. They have fired our quartersand murdered poor Barnes and ever somany more; and the whole town's upto help them. Nothing for it bnt to diegame.'

"Nothing, indeed," muttered Her-bert. "God have mercy on us all I" ...

Tbe next moment he was hastening atfull speed toward the scone of aotion.

OHAPTBR rjj.—THE VAiLET OP DEATH..

All great historical catastrophes—Ar-mada wrecks, London pestilences, Sera-goBBa sieges, Moscow retreats—are wontto prolong the agony whioh they inflict,and to let tall their vengeance drop bydrop, instead of, mercifully ending allwith one crushing blow.

So it fared with the ill-fntcd Invadersof Cab.a'. The mnr'erof Sir AlexanderBnrneB, the noblest of the conuUeuamartyrs in that disastrous year, wasonly the first drop of the coming storm.

Then followed blow upon blow, therising of the whole surrounding conn try,the destruction of tbe reconnbiterlngparties sent out too lato by the oom-mander-in-ohief; the capture of theBritish stores, whioh left the troopsalmost without food, and at length, onthe fatal Ut of January, 1812, thecrowning madness of the "conventionof. retreat,'" by which the whole armygave itself up to its destroyers, accept-ing the aesnranoa of a safehomeward from the very men who hadBWorathe death of every British soldierinOabnl.

Foremost in every combat was Her-bert St. Clair, recklessly exposing him-self to. all dangers; for, soldier ns liewas to his very finger-tips, the night ofMI English-flig dishonored and an Bog-.Uih array in retreat,' bow»d him downwith n Nenit of pariotwl di«gt(<jo, »a<l

out of the deadly valley, only to beslaughtered to a man by froBh enemiesbeyond.

Of sixteen thousand who left thecapita), i>nJy a tingle man reachedJellalabad alive; and one day avengedalike Bohilcund and Oabnl.

Through the whole of the dreadfulstruggle. Herbert St. Olair had foughtamong the foremost, reokless of life,and caring only to have I is fill ofAfghan blood before he died.

Man on moo, the white flocked mur-derers fell before his deadly aim; andIho rocks nhove began to echo with thecry of " Kill the Iugleez-Bftfibi I" (Eng-lish captain) while bullets fell aroundhim thick and fast. But although hisuniform was toru to rags and his oajBt: nek from his head, the death histill failed to reach his life; and the

No living creature is morethorongblyaccessible tp female influence than astrong man suddenly made helpless;and Herbert,. with the princess' arm -supporting his weary head, and hermusical voice repeating eome stirringnative war-song or romantio Easternlegend, was happier than he had everbeen amid the rush "and carnage of thebattle-fiald;1

But this pleasing dream was destinedto a sudden and awful awakening.

One morning when StOlair's strength1

was so completely restored that thoughts'of escape had already begun to haunthim, Onleyaz rose to leave him muchbefore her usual time, with a long, lin-gering, beseeching look, which her lastwords terribly explained: •

" The Feringhia warriors are on their -roaroh hither, and my father is angry.This day he will send for you, and, oh,beware of offending him, for your ownsake—and mine I"

An honr later, the curtain that hid hisdoor was lifted,' and a deep voioe said:

" Follow ns, Ingleez. The khan oallafor yon." 01

Led by his guards, St. Clair traverseda seemingly endless passage, and enter-ed a wide hall, around wbioh stood aline of armed Afghans, motionless asstatues!

In the center sat tbe principal chiefsof the tribe, and midmost of all thestately fignre of Akbar himself, in allthe splendor of barbaric adornment,,with the folds of his jeweled turbanovershadowing the fierce blaok eyes thathad never known fear or meroy.

As the prisoner entered Gnleyaa"(who woe seated beside her father) shotone rapid glance at biui, as if to bid himromember her warning, and then cutber eyes dqwn as before,

There t n a momentary pause, nndthen Akbarspoke: *

"Feringhee, you ere a brave -warrior;and as chief speaks with thief, so will IBpeak with you. We have slain many

the Ingleez, and their brethren amangry. .War is at our gates, and weneed every good sword that will fightor us: Hear me; we have fought withPOU as an enemy—we now embrace you,s a friend. You have been valiant unde respect jour valor; yon have beenind, and we are grateful for your kind

ss. Dwell arnang-as, fight in ourinks, coll yours It an Afghan insteadf a Feringbee—and my wealth shall boour wealth, and I will be your father,•id my daughter Bhall be your bride."For one moment the brave man's

ulte throbbed wildly, as the large deepres that had BO often looked love intoiis own rested on. him imploringly.Few men could have met that glanceinmoved; while, on the other hand, hoaew that to refute such 'an offer from

•nob a man would be mailing upon cei- 'ain death, in the crueltst form thatfghan vengeance could devise. Bat

n tbe face of tbe terrible temptation,ilio English heart within him bent truesoever. He looked fearlessly into themerciless eyes that wutohed him, and.bis vnioe never wavered as he replied:

"Prince, you have spoken plainly,and I thank you. Tonr offers are great;bit were yon to offer me the Afghancrown itself, yeu could never tempt anEnglish soldier to break his faith andtike the band of a traitor and a mur-derer. Do your worst—I defy you I"

Even tbe noa men around him ahnd-dered to hear sucb «ords-<nddretsed totheir teriible leader, and the daringspt eA\ was followed by a dead and awfuls lence.

A momentary spasm of rage shook thaprince'H gn.nite-hewn face, succeeded bya look i'f t'terti and reluctant admiration—tbe savage's instinctive admiration ofcourage, even in a mortal enemy. He

;superstitious mountaineers looked withsecret awe upon this man whom noweapon could harm and no peril dis-may.

But the end oame at last. A sharp,sudden pang shot through his left Bide—a eick dizziness overpowered him—the bliuik rooks and the rolling smoke,and tbe eddy of struggling figures,swam before him in a mist—there was arushing, roaring sound in his ears—andhe fell heavily to the earth.

OHAPTBtt IV—TBPE TO THE LAST.

When St. Olair regained consciousnesB, he was too weak and weary totake muob note of his surronndings.His ohief feeling was one of overpower-ing exhaustion, mixed with a vaguesense of having lain insensible for weekor even months since tbe fatal day uKoord-Oabui. Little by little he beganto notice that he was lying npon amiBhiom.d-eoueh in a largo, high-roofodchamber, the walls of which were hungwith the skins of wolves and tigers,mingled with pointed helmetu, silver-hilted yataghans and long mountainrifles.

Throngh a narrow loop-hole in tbwall, wbioh revealed its immense thiok-ness, he caught a glimpse of a smoothgreen valley far below, dappled withclustering trees, among whioh a tinystream sparkled in the sunlight—a suffi-cient proof how long a time must havelapsed Binoe the gloomy winter morn-ing of the great battle.

At that moment a light step caughthis ear, and, looking round, he beheldonce more the long dark hair and lus-trous .eyesot Gijleyaz.

He was at>6ut to speak, but she signed to him to be silent,

" The angel of death still hovers oveyou, and you must beware. I will tellyon all yon wish to know, Tbe FeringheeB are slain, every man; and thecoward whom they set np as our kinghas fled for hiB life. They who strnokyon down were men of another tribe,who knew nothing of my,father'spledge; but our people recognized yoiamong the fallen, nnd brought voaway—and here, in the halls of Kara'Dagh, you are safe as beneath thshadow of the,prophet's tomb 1"

Tho word. "Kara-Dngh" (Blackmountain) was a revelation to St. Olair.

There was no farther room for donbtHe was a prisoner in the mountainstronghold of Akbar Ebon himeelf 1

Day succeeded day, and the wonndedofficer, thanks to his own native vigor aswell as the untiring care of his charmingnurse, began to shake off the fatal tor-por whioh hod held him down so long.

After a while be was able to leave hueonoh, and, supported by the arm ofGnleyoB, who seldom left him, to ven.ture forth upon the battlemonta, wherebe sat (or hours drinking in the life-giving mountain breeze, and feastingh i s eyes upon t h e g lor ious panorama be-low, . • • " ' •'•'•' •' • .• "'•• '• •

From Guleyas herself he had learned

she gave the information recurred to hismemory moro than onoe, , '" '

The leatpn of these precautions wasat length explained by » pitoe of uwawhfnu Midi bit hurl tap, wh*fi the

g , yspolte at length, with a calmness moredeadly than the loudest anger :

" It is enongh—take him away I"Tbe gnards led forth the oaptive ; and

mingling with their heavy tramp oamethe doomed man's last words :

" God nave old Enijlan'l I"

Tbe silenoe of midnight brooded overthe ancient palace, when the gloom ofthe dungeon into whioh St. Oiair hadbeen cast was broken by a sndden light.

Before him, white and rigid as acorpse in the speotral glare of her lamp,stood Guleyaz, with her finger pressedwarningly to her lips. In silence sheheld out to him the tunic and gaudyturban of an Afghan warrior, signifyingto him to pat them on.

He obeyed mechanically, like one in adream, and the moment the disguieo wascomplete she led him hastily to thedoor.

Outstretohed on the floor outside laythe(sentinel, evidently stupefied by somepowerful narcotic, by whom administer-ed Herbert could easily gueBB.

Pausing a moment to assnre herselfthat all was still in the castle, Guleyazwent straight to the end of the passageand opened a small iron door, looking itbehind her as soon as they had entered.

What followed Herbert oould neverclearly recall. He had only a vague re-collection of traoking the gloomy wind-ings pf a dismal cavern, from whosedamp, oozy sides the water fell drop bydrop, with a sullen plash, whioh was theonly sound that broke tbe eternalsilence.

One of these drops extinguished tbelamp, but Guleyaz's burning handseized hiB own. in the darkness, and ledhim flBwaro^helkHBw'nolrwhither, ~

At length, after a seemingly ondleuHinterval, another door flew open beforethem, and St. Olair, with a delightwhioh no words can convey, felt tbecool night air on his oheek, and saw tbestars shining overhead.

"There lies your rood," said bisguide, pointing down tho valley. "Tbearmies of yonr people cannot be far offnow. May Allub keep yon Bnfo till j onreach them."

"And you?" ahked Herbert, with asudden impulse of tenderness, as thetremor, of her voice told him Bhewasweeping. "They will know that it iByou who have saved me, and tben "—

"Who cares what happens to mo?"answered the girl, passionately, "Whenthe dew that refreshed it is gone, whatmatter how Boon the flower withers ? Ihave saved your life—I care not howsoon I lose my own."

"Never, by heaven I" oried St. Clan-,throwing his strong arm around her,as if his whole BOUT were poured intotheoareEs. "Iamnoteuch a our as tosneak off in safety, and leavo my littleewe-lamb to these mountain-wolves.Come with mo, darling; and may I bocalled coward before the whole regi-ment, if anything but death, ever partsus two again I" t .

t Fruiter Death u tke Bu<i *r tk* DM-

A ooiTeapopdent of the Evening Star>f Philadelphia writes from a camp inthe Big Horn mountains, W. T.: Wererou ever chased by road agente f Well,f not, y o u oorreaponden. bag been,ind that the other duy, as a passengerin a back-board mail to Fort MoKinney,W. T. I arrived here on Tburedajevening, with the mail, and will attemptto furnish further particulars of thedeath of George Graham, the driver, atthe hands of these desperadoes, whonow infest this frontier ooantrv, andare, in fact, "worse than Indians. Whenhe saw the baud of road agents makingtoward him, he wheeled around in aninstant, and put his four hones on thefull ran, in the direction of CrazyWoman's fork of the Powder river.

It was a race for life. Although tbohorses were the best stock on the road,it could not be expected tbat theywould maintain the asoendenoy in speed

ith snoh a heavy load to pull and the•bite out-throats pursuing them onlorsebaok. Bat the driver and kin

passengers, knowing the fate that .wasn store for them if they fell into their

hands, poshed along for a few minutesit a lightning rate. The bullets ofhe pursuing party were whizzing

round thick and fast, but they heededthem not. All were appalled, however,at the faot that the dietanoo was grada-ally lessening1 between' the pursuers andthe pursued; but in this dire emergencyloolness did not desert any. Ihe yellsif the road agents wore now heard:Ioee to the rear. The distanoe sped>ver was about three miles, and then

began a new phase of the struggle forlife.

It was but the work of an instant for1 river and passenger to jump from thestuge) backboard and out loose the

leaders. This was done, and each manmounting a horse, sped onward, leavingthe stage and the other two horses be-hind them. All now seemed in a fairway to escape. The road agents keptright on, seeming not satisfied with thoiooty that had been left them. About;wo miles had (been made when an un-ooked-for accident oocurreu. Thetiorses were still oarryinpr their harness,and being thus enoumbered, the oneridden by the driver stumbled and fell.He did not drag the other horse downwith him, although the horses were stilljonnected with the harness an when at-aohed to the wagon. The horse ridden

by your correspondent detached him-self, and he wns left to keep.up the racealone.

Poor Graham had not time to get hislorse up and mount him. The out-rhroats were'already npon him, and im-mediately began their brutal and tortur-ing work, killing him by slow process,and mutilating, his body. One of hiseyes was gouged ont. The fiends tookiis watch, rifled his pockets, and leftthe disfigured body near by. The mailsacks on the stage were subsequently cutopen, and their contents either appro-bated or destroyed. I was pursued itihort distance, bnt tho chase was givenlp. I ran my horse several miles fur-her, taking to the sage brush. .When>pposite the ford at Ornzy Woman'sork, the animal sank from exhanstion,md I made my way on foot to Frabiulanche station, got a fresh horse, andLcoompanied by a stock-tender, startedbook nnd secured that portion of themail that wns not destroyed. Everymoil that passes down through thocountry in jumped and ransacked. Iuaot, any that travel this country would-ather meet Indians than these despera-loes. The United States government,nd its army seem to be powerless in Ikft.iremises.

How He Kept His Word.

Over two years ago, a gentleman con-nected with a large obiiia store in Bostonwas on his way home from Washington.He met on the train an attractive littlegirl, and they soon became well ac-quainted. So pleased was the gentle-man'with his yonng friend, that onparting, he said he would semi her abeautiful china tea-set aa a souvenir oftheir meeting.

When ha had packed the china, hofound, to his chagrin, that he had failedto obtain the little girl's full name andaddress. He, however, Bent the presentto the olerk of the hotel' at whioh hestopped in Washington, and asked himto search out a little girl with prettycarls, named Minnie, whose father wnsa clerk in the general poBtoffice. Theclerk did his best to execute the mission,but failed to find the man in a depart-ment where hundreds of men are em-ployed.. ,

Two years passed, and it often painedthe gentleman to think that a obildshould believe that he had not kept bisword, Ono day, having mentioned theincident and his regrets to a brightyoung lady, she remarked:

"I'm sure I can find little Miunie."Being naked to make the attempt, she

adopted a simple method. She reason-ed that, even among n thousand fathersemployed in the postoffice, there wonldnot be many who possessed snch anattractive daughter, and thut her veryattractiveness mast have made herknown to all her father's associates.Acting upon this BnppoBition, ebeseiita postal card to the department, inquir-ing for the name of the gentleman whohad a little girl answering the meagerdescription given by her friend.

The card passed from ono clerk to an-other, and soon found the father. Min-nie, in a few days, was delighted by re-ceiving the beautiful gift which badbeenso long waiting for her.
