Every one knows how such books as 'Miss Middletou's 'Eros' aud 'The Quick or tlio Bead' sold. They pushed aside the average run of novels, and were bought by the thousands because they were naughty or supposed to be.

But there were two books which sold in far greater numbers still, and to tho same people who bought tho flashy novels. I refer, of course, to' 'Robert Elsniere' and Ward, I confess I am totally unable to explain why these two kinds of books should lind buyers iu the same people; but of one thing I am positive and that is that we have sold hundreds of copies of 'Robert Elsniere' to people who cau no more understand and appreciate tho book than they could Herbert Spencer's 'Principles of It lias been a curious season in our business, and I am not especially anxious to see another like it."

In 1821), a Miami Indian, known as No-weling-gua, or Big Leg, lived near Fort Wayne with a woman, half Indian and half negro, whom he claimed as his slave. She had been in the habit, as he averred, of entering bis cabin, during his absences aud stealing his meal. After repeatedly warning her to desist, he at length told her if she disobeyed him again, he would kill her. The woman, in terror, fled to Fort Wayne, then a mere village, and obtained employment. Shortly after her departure, Big Leg came to town, too, aud wandering about, ho soon discovered the woman washing at a house.

His chin was on his breast, and he was huddled down so ho resembled a hunchback. His appearance was not in the least romantic and he bore not tho least resemblance to a sleeping knight. Ho had had a hard day's work, and was thoroughly worn out.

Either the magnetism of Lois' gaze or a particularly rasping snore caused him awake with a start. "Did you speak to me?" lie questioned of Lois. "0, no!" she replied shortly.

Big Leg ejaculated, "Wasn't that nice?" and strode away. The citizens were terribly incensed at this atrocious murder, aud though largely outnumbered by the Indians of the region, they procured the arrest of the chief and locked him op in the old log jail. His plea was that the woman belonged to blm was his property, and that ho had the right to do what he pleased with her. When told that ho was to be hanged for the offense, he could not comprehend it; but seemed to think hanging was some such operation that he had often witnessed in the use of the old stqelyards by the traders in weighing venison, and concluded that he was not to be weighed until he was dead. This idea became provalout, too, among the Indians of his tribe, and as he was a chief of much consequence, they sought to exchange him before the weighing, for one of their number whom they considered rather worthless, aud were greatly surprised and chagrined when their otter was refused.

Having received some explanation as to the probable effect of hanging, or weighing, as he understood it, which ho seemed to regard as his settled punishment, tho chief and his Indian friends resolved to try the experiment on a dog, to see how the animal would act. Accordingly while Leg was still con-lined iu the jail, a number of his Indian friends collected upon the outside of the prison, in view of the chief and proceeded about the execution of a dog. A rope was placed around the animal's neck and he was suspended from a pole. Observing the process of strangulation "How could you tell that sallow-faced Miss Hatkins Am looked fresh as a rose?"
