that capital thing I herrd her say about Craig—that he was like a eock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow. Now that's an Aésops fable in a sentence.’

‘But it will be a bad business if the old gentleman turns them oft of the farm next Michaelmas, eh ” said Mrs, Irwine.

‘Oh, that must not be; and Poyser is such a good tenant that Donnithorne is likely to think twice and digest his spleen rather than trrn them out. But if he should give them notice at Lady-day, Arthur and I must move heaven and earth to modify him. Such old parishoners as they are must not go,’

‘Ah! there’s no knowing what may hap- pen before Lady-day, eaid Mre. Irwine. ‘It struck me on Arthur’s birthday that the old man was a little shaken : he’s eighty- three, you know. It’s really an unecncion- able age. It’s only women who have a right to live as long as that.’

‘When they've got old-bachelor sons who would be forelorn without them,’ said Mr. Irwine, laughing and kissing his mother’s hand.

A New Engine of War.

A trial of dynamite projecticles was made by the United States military authorities on the banks of the Potomac River, on the 12th inst. Four shots were fired with six inch shells, carrying eleven ponn] bursting charges of uitro-gelatine, which contains about ninety-five per cent. of pure nitro- glycerine. The range was 1,000 yards, and the target was a perpendicular ledge of solid trap rock on the south bank of the river. The first shell struck near the eastern margin of the ledge and exploded by con- cussion, shattering the face of the rock fer a radius of about thirty feet, and carrying away several tons of debris, which were huried for hyndredsof yards upand down the stream. The second shell struck nearly in the centre of the ledge, exploding as before. It opened a cavity in the face of the ledge about twenty-five feet in diameter, and excavated a pit or crater about six fret deep. Some of the fragments cf rock from this explosion were hurled half a mile, o1e piece, weighing nearly twelve pounds, being thrown clear across the canal, and lodging near a farm house. The trial was regarded as a success in every respect, and as @ con- clusive proof of the destructive power of the six inch shells. The next test in the series will be made in a few days with eight inch -shells, carrying thirty-five pound charges of nitro-gelatine. One of these shells, well aimed, would wreck anything afloat.

The Russian Sentry Post.

Sarakhs, the wew outpost from which Russia is now watching Herat, stands on a rocky ridge overlooking the valley of the Heri river, just at the meeting point of the frontiers of Persia, Afghanistan, and the Merv desert, and about 170 miles north- west of Herat itself. It was formerly a place of considerable sirength, and played an important part during the long wars be- tween Afghanistan and Persia in the earlier part of the last century, but of late years it has been entirely neglected, and its de- fences are in a very bad condition, The fortress is an irregular polygon in shape, with eleven bastions and numerous inter- mediate towers for muskeiry, which must have been formidably effective when well manned. At the time of the Russian occu- pation four years ago, however, the Persian garrison had dwindled down to 700 ill- armed infantry and a handful of irregular horsemen—a miserably inadequate force to defend a place whose circuit of walls would have required at least ten times that num- ber—while only one or two of the eleven cumbrous and old-fashioned cannon that stil lingered upon the crumbling ramparts

were cajable of being fired without bursting.

An Indian Tichborne Case.

A curious Indian Tichborne trial has just been decided at Ahmedabad, after four years’ litigation. A young Brahmin and hia wife went on a pilgrimage, during which he totally disappeared, and has not been heard of since. Soon after the widow snd- denly effected to recognize her lost husband in a devotee who lived on the banks of the Nerbudda. The religious man owned to the soft impeachment, set up house with the lady, and proceeded to make free use of her property. The jealous relatives, however, doubted his identity, and brought the question into couct. One of the most conclusive pieces of evidence against the imposter was that he had forgotten to speak or understand English, in which the Brahmin had passed a creditable examin- ation.
