of the guard ; ‘* give this fellow the spur ; he is restive!” | The ruffian soldier approached with, fixed bayonet, seriously intending to use. Hits point on the poor way-worn invalid ! The latter rose with an effort, and made a_ | desperate attempt to keep on; but his; ‘resolution again failed him. He could Inot endure the agonizing pain, and after staggering a pace or two, he fell up: against a ‘rock.

‘I cannot!” he again cried—* I can- not march further: let me die here.”

“Forward! or you shall die here,” shouted Ijurra, drawing a pistol from his belt, and cocking it, evidently with the determination to carry out his threat. * Forward !”

** 1 caunot,” faintly repled the youth.

‘* Forward, or I fire!”

‘‘ Fire!” cried the young man, throw- ing open the flaps of his hunting-shirt, {and making one last effort to stand erect.

** You are scarce worth a bullet,” said the monster, with a sneer; at the same instant he levelled his pistol at the breast of his victim, and fired! When the smoke was blown aside, the body of

jyoung Holiogsworth was seen lying at

the base of the rock, doubled up, dead! A thrill of horror ran through the line of captives. Even their habitnally brutal guards were touched by such wan- ton barbarity. The brother of the youth was not six yards from the spot, tightly bound, and witness of the whole scene ! Faucy his feelings at that moment !

‘No wonder,”’ continced the Texan —‘‘no wonder that Harding Holings- worth don't stand upon ceremony as to where and when he may attack Rafael Jjurra. I verily believe that the pre sence of the commander-in-chief wouldu’t restrain him from taking vengeance. It ain’t to be wondered at!”

In hopes that my companion might help me to come to some knowledge of the family at the hacienda, I guided the conversation in that direction.

“And Don Ramon de Vargas is Ijurra’s uncle?”

‘Sure enough, he must be. Ha! I did not think of that Doa Ramon is the uncle. I ought to have known bim this morning—that confounded mezcal I drank knocked him out of my mind altogether. I have seen the old fellow several times. He used to come to San Antonio once a year, on business with the merchants there. | remembered, too, he once brought a daughter with him—splendid girl that, and no mistake! Faith, she crazed half the young fellows in San Antovio, and there were no ends of duels about her. She used to ride wild horses, and fling the lazo like a Comanche. But what am I talking about? That mezcal has got into my brains, sure enongh. It must have been her you chased? Sure as shootin’, =

it was!

‘Probably enough,” I replied, in a careless way. My companion little knew the deep, feverish interest his re~ marks were exciting, or the struygle it was costing me to conceal my emotions ‘One thing 1 longed to learn fror: him— whether any of these amorous duellists had been favoured with the approbation of the lady. I longed to put this ques- tion, and yet the absolute dread of the answer restrained my tongue! I re ‘mained silent, till the opportunity had passed. The hoof-strokes of half a- dozen horses coming rapidly from the ‘rear, interrupted the conversation. With-

lout surprise, 1 saw that it was Holings-

worth and the rangers who had bees left at the hacienda.

“Captain Warfield!” said the Ten- nessean as he spurred alongside, *‘ my conduct no doubt surprises you. I shall be able to explain it to your satisfaciion when time permits. It’s a long story— a painful one to me: you will not re- quire it from me now. This much let me say —for good reason, | hold Rafael Ijurra as my most deadly foe. J came to Mexico to kill that man ; and by the Eter- nal! if 1 don’t succeed, I care not who kills me /”

* You have not then ”—

With a feeling of relief, I put the ques- tion, for I read the answer in the look of disappointed vengeance that gleamed in the eyes of the Tennessean. I was not permitted to finish the interrogatory ; he knew what 1 was going to ask, and interrupted me with the reply :

‘No, no; the villain has escaped; but by e.

The preposal on the part of Germany to secure Heligoland and the project in Spain to purchase Gibraltar, wiil not probably amount’ to much ; but the fact that they now crop up is a pretty correct indication of the opinion entertained of the present English Government by the rest of Europe.

Mr. Longworth Powers, of Rome, son of Hiram Powers, the sculptor, having ob- tained the best photograph of President Garfield, began a bust of him on the 2nd of July, the day the Presiteut was shot, and singularly enough, he fivished it on the 19th of September, the day on which he died.

There comes a wonderful story from New York. One Armstrong was mur- dered in New Jersey by one Hunter. The murderer was detected, convicted and hung. Among his papers were found policies of insurance on the life of ths murdered man,supposed to have been taken out for his own benefit by the murderer. These passed into the hands ef the mur- dered man’s wife, who fo-thwith institut- ed suits for che recovdry of the insurance, and has just succeeded in obtaining a $10,000 verdict. The murderer must have been an unusually daring ruffian.

A correspondent in a letter to a contem- perary, gives a verv simple method of pre- venting butter tasting of turnips. He says he was told by a dairy farmer that when the milk is taken from the cows it should be immediately put into a tin vessel. This vessel should then be immersed in another of boiling water until the temperature of the milk is raised to 140 degrees. [It is then taken out and set in pans in the dairy in the ordinary way. lhe farmer who told him of this method, now, and for same years past, only fed his cows ou turnips and hay, and his butter by this mrecess was freed from the taste of

turnips.

There appears to be an evidently increas- ing demand on this side cf the Atlantic for increased speed on our railways. A num- ber of Engiish Railway trains run at from 50 to 60 miles an hour and people in Can- ada and the United States are asking why they should be compelled to ‘‘ creep along” —as they call it—at the rate of from 30 to 35 miles en hour. The Grand Trunk Railway Cotnpany—as we learn from our Boston exchanges —are taking steps to satisfy this clamor. They have recently had built six leviathan locomotiues on a new principle, and have brought out Eng- lish engineers with special knowledge to drive them, with a view of running fast trains to Chicago at a rate of sixty miles an hour, stoppages included. The experiments, so it is said, already made, show results beyond expectation.

It may interest the Grits to know what the Grit Free Press of Winnineg says of the syndicate and its work on the railway. It is as follows :—‘‘ We also held, and still hold, that by no possibility could the contract have been given to any body of men more thoroughly fitted to carry to a successful completion the great work they were undertaking. We knew what they had accomplished in Minnesota and Dakota; we know their energy, their determination, their command of great resources ; and we felt that, in their hands, the railway, so absolulely necessary to the speedy settle- ment of the North-West, would be con- structed on business like principles and in the most satisfactory manner. We were right. Se far, at any rate, the company fulfilled the expectations of its every well-wisher in this country.”

The Rev. Robert Campbell, giving his experience, in the last number of the Presbyterian Record, of his recent visit to Manitoba, says that, as to the fertility of the soil and the ease with which the wild Jand can be subdued, the half has not been told. The farmer, going iato the unbroken prairie, with his pleugh, is as far on at the start as the backwoudsiwman of Ontario, Quebec or New Brunswick is, after he has been chopping and logging and burning and remeving stumps and stones for fifteen or twenty years, besides that the ground is so much richer, when it is culiivated in the alluvial prairie land. ‘‘I found,” he adds, ‘“‘ but one opinion on this subject amo ig the numerous farmers with whom I convers+d. One of the delightfnl features about the country is that all its inhabitants without exception are full of euthysiasm

audible ; but the wild glance that flashed |) from thre speaker's eye expréssed lis deep

regarding it. Every settler claims that he
