If General Dix feels as all sensible men must do on this question, consdieration for the ‘feelings of others’ should not induce him to keep silence, for it is pretty certain that the ‘others’ have not much consideration for him,” Other journals are following the lead of the 7imes, and it only remains for General | Grant to give the vital blow to the lost cause by repudiating the idea that he seeks re- | : election. {t is true that no eligible suc- | cessor to him has yet been mentioned, but | it is vain to expect now that the Republican | party will support a third candidature.

They »atched eagerly through the early evering hours and knew full well they could not hold out a great while longer. They talked of their chances as men will talk when in the face of a common danger and both were of opinion that they could not survive another twenty-four hours. They then lay down, and both men in silent depth of their hearts, prayed most fervently that they might be picked up before morn-~ ing. Soon alter, Robert thought he heard the noise of a steamer and raising his head over the side of the dory. Joy unspeak-. able! there was a steamers light not fifty yards distant. The dory has been seen from her deck, and the shouts of the men were soon answered, Robert was enabled to get on board without help, but it required the assistance of two of the steamer’s crew to get Austin on board, It proved to be the ocean steamer Greece, and the men were kindly cared for by her captain and officers, and by careful nursing were well nigh re- covered upon her arrival in New York on Wednesday last. Upon leaving the steam. er the men were presented with twenty dollars each, a gift from her officers and passengers, ~~ Metuopist Missions. —The annus!

Curting Corn By SreaM in tar CaRseE OF | | Gowrie.— The following letter, which has | | been sent by Lord Kinnard to \r Merchi |of Tiptree Gall, will interest our agricul- j } ' } tural readers:— Rossio Priory, Inchture, | 15th Sept. 1874- Dear Mr. Mechi,— I am sure that you will be giad to hear that I have had a most successful and satisfactory trial of reaping or cutting down crop by steam power. I attached to my traction engine an enlarged reaping machine made after | the pattern of the one for which I obtained | the prize some years ago at the Highland | Society’s Show at Aberdeen. The ground | was very wet, owing to the serious wet | weather we which have had more or less | in this district since the begenning of harvest, and the crop was laid and levelled | so that it could only be cut one way; but in ordinary dry harvest weather I have no doubt that an acre could be cut down and laid in swaiths within halfan hour. Icon, fidently expect however, to be able not | only to cut, but by the aid of steam power to bind up the cut grain in sheaves, and | thus gather in the crops, employing only | halfa dozen hands. The traction engine can carry to the stack-yard from ten to twenty cart loads at a time, and is easily driven, as my grandson a youth of fifteen, | drove the engine part of the time, and thus may be said the first who ever cut down a crop by steam power.-— Yours faithfully, Kixyairp, ’ j | Biackwoop’s ‘iaGazing. The contents of | the October number of Blackwood, just issued by the Leonard Scott Publishing Co., 41 Barclay Street, New York, may be summarized as folloows:—1. * Alice Lors raine’ Part VIIL. If. ‘The Abode of Snow” Part Il.—Simla and its Celebri« ties.’ Simla is the point from which the | Himalayan traveller is to start, on his trip through the mountains, and as it is the place to which the Governor General re~ tires to escape the intense heat of (al~ cutta, many notab e people are to be met with there in the hot season, although the climate seems to be far from attractive. The preparations for the journey ara de- scribed atsome length,and we expect to be fairly on the road to the abode of snow in the next number. III. : Sir Panastre Tars leton’ ‘An unvarnished sketch of the most brilliant, and, we must add ruthless cavalry soldier, who fonght for the King in the Revolutionary War.’ 1V ‘Interna tional Vanities. No. VII —Allen Laws.’ | We had supposed this subject to be ens | tirely exhausted, and are not only surprised | at finding ourselves mistaken, but startled | at the new aspect in which vanity is here | presented to us. ‘Here it suddenly be~ comes all wrath and murder.’ Need we add, that as it becomes more sensational, it is more interesting? V.‘ Army Control.’ This article is not one of great interest to the general American reader. We recom- mend it more particularly to soldiers and Britons, VI. ‘ The story of Valentine and his Brother’ Part IX. VII. ‘School Board Religion.’ VIII. ‘ Horatian Lyrics.’ A free version of three well-known odes, respectively entitled by the translator, ‘The Golden Mean,’ + A Christmas Carol,’ and ‘To Mildred.’ What those unacquaint- ed with Latin think of them in this En lish dress may be best learned from the foliowing lively comments by a shrewd fe- male correspondent; ‘I don’t know any~ thing about Horatian Lyrics, [ suppose | they are sermons on texts taken from Horace If H. is the manI take him to be, he died eight years B.C. What did he know about Christmas carols ? about reels ? about ladies’ gloves? ‘What is a golden mean’?
