Mines in SYDNEY PROPER and OTHER HALF-HANGED PEOPLE. HANGING HAS NOT BEEN FATAL. Zhe Curious Record Left by a Victim of the Time of the Seventh Charles of Wesley's Magazine. due legal process or private animosity is, no doubt, at present a rare situation. Science, with her marvelous powers, with the numberless commodities that enrich human experience, has made half-hanged persons scarce, or (as the dealers say) ‘‘pretty unique.” But the drop was not always improved, and in these times more than one victim of mis- fortune returned to society after haviug uadergone the last penalty of the law. In Scotland, at least, a sportsmanlike sentiment spared half hanged Maggie Dickson, though her sentence had not really been carried out in accordance with the perfect intentions of her judge. But the stories of the two most cele- brated half-hanged people are more ro- mantic than that of poor Maggie Dick- son. There may even be skeptics who decline to accept the following narra- tive, though related by the sufferer him- self, Michacl Hamilton, serving in the Scottish forces of Charles VIL. of France. In holy week, 1429, when Jeanne d’ Are was just being examined by a congress of divines, Michael Hamilton, with other gentlemen of the sword, was quartered near Clisson, in Brittany. The Bretons were in sympathy with the English, or, at all events, greatly preferred them to the Scots. A Breton spy was captured by Hamilton and his friends, who at first extracted his information (doubtless in the usual manner) and then hanged him. What they had learned from their pri- soner induced them to believe that it was ‘time for them to go,”’ and go they did, “with what feet they had,” to employ a pleasing Greek idiom. In the flight Michael Hanulton, impeded by the weight of his armor, was taken by the peasants. Among them was the son of the spy whom the Scots had hanged. In a revengeful spirit this youth insisted that Michael should undergo a penalty unworthy’ of his blood, and be hanged in his turn. “If you want a thing well done do it yourself,” is the maxim on which theson of the spy acted. He per- sonally hanged Michael Hamilton, and, no doubt, bestowed every attention to the details. Now, Michael, when he saw that he could not escape his pursuers, had made a vow of a pilgrimage to the shrine af St. Katherine of Fierbois, in whose church, s will be remembered, Jeanne d’Are discovered strangely fhe buried sword with five crosses on the blade. Now, on the night when Michael was stspended, ‘a ‘voice became. audible to bey te wd the parish, bidding him go istehdr hone Fe es very little of the matter, but, as the voite would not be quiet, he sent the beadle to inspect Michael. To make sure that the Scot was dead the beadle made an in- cision in his little toe. Blood flowed, Michael movad, and the beadle fled back to the cure. Collecting the local clergy, and clad in canonicals, the cure went to the gibbet and let down Michael, Be- holding this, and still reveugeful, the son of the slain spy hit Michael on the ear with asword. None the less he re covered, made his pilgrimage to Fier- bois and told his tale, which may be read among the ‘‘Miracles de Madame St. Katherine de Fierbois.” Curious as was this affair it yields in dramatic merit to a story told in Wes- ley’s Arminian Magazine and in a pamph- let. A young man, walking to the house of his brother, a yeoman, found the inn ata neighboring town very full. He #vared the room of a merchant who was openly counting out his money. Having eecasion to visit the garden, and also to borrow a knife, he accepted the loan of a knife from the merchant. On return ing to his room he found the merchant gone. He went to Led, slept, rose early, walked to his brother's, and was arrested in the afvernoon for mnurdering the mer- chant. In his pocket was that trades man’s knife, and »etween blade and handle was @ guinea of William and Mary. At the inn the merchant's empty bed was stained with blood, and, though the merchant’s body was nowhere to be found, the young man was condemned for murder and hanged in chains on his brother’s farm. Here a swain observed that the-body moved; it was cut down, life was reanimated, and the youth fled to sea. Taken by Spaniards in South America, he rose to be warden of the jail,and while in enjoyment of that office recognized among some English prison ers the person for whose murder he had suffered. The fact was that the mer- chant, while the youth was absent in the garden, discovered that he was bleeding freely from a vein which had been open ed that day. He hurried to the surgeon in the dark, was seized by a press gang, served his Brittanic Majesty in a ship of war, was taken by the Spaniards, and at last met in a jail in South America the very man who had been hanged for murdering him in England, Persons who are unable to accept this legend may prefer that of Michael Ham- ilton; or again, those who boggle at Michael may believe the tale published by Wesley. Both are examples of the very mixed luck which falls to the lot of mortals in this troublesome world.— London Telegraph. The Little Auk in Britain, If the severe frost should continue much longer, Macgillivray’s description of the little auk as a bird ‘‘of rare oc- currence in Great Britain” will have to be amended.

She wears a royal colden crown, Our little, laughing, suy-faced queen The clust’ring curls o'+r eves brews Are bright as sunimer starlight’s shee She sways a scepire o'er us al), And we obey exch proud command; For we are held in siavery’s thrall By that imperial, dimpled Land. Her robes of state are pure as snow, In every heart she finds a throne; In all the land she las no foe— The name of rebel is uuknown. Her loyal subjects. low and high, Full many a costly tribute bring: The glories of her kingdom, I, Her humble poet-laureate, sing. Around my neck her soft arms twine, My song is smothered in her curls; Her sweet, fresh lips are pressed to mine; Oh, baby—little queea of girls! Golden Days. “One morning last summer, while walking through one of our parks, I was | attracted by a tremendous chattering fromaclump of bushes near the path- way. It sounded asif a hundred birds were having afight over their breakfast —for sparrows think that a fat worm or a juicy bug is worth making a great fuss about. “I walked quickly and stealthily up to the bushes and peeped in. It was not & worm Which caused the commotion, but something bigger. A large flock of English sparrows were flying about. screaming as if they had gone mad and pecking savagely at intervals at some sniall animal, which was running about on the ground. It was a poor little red chipmunk who had excited their wrath. He was running back and forth. evident ly trying to get away from his tormen- tors. It was of no use, for he was closely surrounded by them, and he evidently was getting weak in the unequal strug- gle. “So I drove away the sparrows and tried to rescue the miserable little squir- rel. When the birds flew away the chip munk still lay upon the ground and seemed unable to move. I picked him up in my hands. He was in a pitiable condition. The sparrows had pulled nearly every hair out of his tail. One of his eyes was entirely pecked out and he was covered with cuts and wounds, where the pugnacious little sparrows had pecked and beaten him. ‘Poor little chippy! He was nearly dead and evidently in such suffering that he had to be put out of his misery. We had Mr. Chipmunk stuffed and pnt him up on the mantel-shelf for an orna- ment. He looks much more happy there than he did the day the quarrelsome little sparrows pecked his life away. But what it was that excited their wrath Mr. Chipmunk never told.” Faure’s Unaffected Cordiality. — Mr. Felix Faure continues, says out Paris correspondent, to win public favor by his unaffected, hearty manners. , He refuses to be bound by the Protocol un- less on questions of international polite- ness ayd public ceremonial, The Presf- dent, he cays oold be his own proto. . he wishes to act according to the dictates of “his heart aud of common sense. Thus at the bat at the Hotel de Ville he left Mme. Pon belle, wife of the Prefect of the Seine, to be taken to the buffet by a Minister, and gave his amn to the homely Mme Champondry. This lady's husband re presented on that occasion the town council. The President thought that she, as hostess, should be treated as the highest lady present. This delighted all the Radicals of the town council, who constantly rebel against the tutelage in which M. Poubelle, the Prefect of the Seine, tries to keep them. The courte ous instincts of the President were also shown in the way in which he received at the Elysee the old boys of the Pompee Technical School, where he was educat- ed. Those who called on him were his classmates and are now all business mer. The senior old boy, M. Chapron, a civil engineer attached to the School of Arts and Trades, delivered an address When it was ended, M. Felix Faure said: ‘‘Do ine the pleasure of making yourselves at home and puttiug away ceremony. Let us smoke a cigar in remembrance of our school days; drink a flagon of beer and haveachat. But I expect all of you to use the old familiar ‘thee’ and ‘thon’ in talking to me; otherwise I shall feel on stilts, and I hate nothing more than .”—London News. The Grass Widow, According to recent researches the phrase ‘“‘grass widow ” is a corruption of “grace widow,” which is a term for one who becomes a widow by grace or favor. not of necessity as by death. I: originated in the earlier days of Euro- pean civilization, when divorces werc but seldom granted, and then only by authority of the Church. When such a decree was granted to a woman the rescript stated: ‘‘ Viduca de gratia,” which interpreted is ‘‘ widow of grace.” A woman receiving such a divorce was commonly called ‘‘a grace widow,” and the transition to ‘‘ grass widow” was easy. This latter term is in the United States applied toa woman whose hus: band has been away from her for con- siderable length of time, or who has deserted her. In England it is applied to an unmarried woman who has borne a child.—San Francisco Call Horses Fed on Potatoes, In the first issue of the Planter we gave the experience of Mr. W. G. Hin- son, of James Island, in reference tv feeding horses and mules on potatoes We have since found two farmera, Mr. J. C. Lampley, of Darlington Connty, and Mr, W. D. Harriss, of Florence County, who are utilizing their potatoes in the same way. These gentlemen are not doing it from necessity, but as a matter of farm economy, and are well pleased with the experiment. Accord- ing to the estimate of Col T. W. Wood ward, of Fairfield, it takes three bushels of potatoes to equal in nutriment one bushel of corn, but even if it took four the cost of feeding on the potatoes would be far less. It is well known that a dry summer is very favorable to potatoes and just the opposite for corn, and this fact ought to be snfficient to induce every farmer to plant them more large- y¥-—Caroling Planter. ceeded HE MOST remarkable cures cn record have been accomplished by llood’s *+rsaparilla.

It is nothing more or less than a simple de vice with strings and soun ling plate to be attached underneath the keyboard of a typewriting machine, in such a man ner that when a letter is struck by the operator a note of wusic will be produce ed instead of the ordinary click-clack noise which sometimes becomes so very disagreeable. Of course, it is only once in a hundred times, no doubt, that such acombination of keys will be struck as to produce any real harmony of sound, still each note will be distinctly musical, and the invention will probably greatly enhance the use and value of the type writer. It is expected that a patent will soon be applied for. A New Way of Catching Rabbits, In some parts of Australia the tank trap is growing greatly in favor for thx extermination of rabbits. It consists of a tank containing water at the bot tom, into which the rabbits jump, anc from which they are unable afterward: to escape. It, however, is successful o1 a large scale only during the dry months of the year.
