"Ten dollars! why tbats only tw kegs' of nails! Put me down for thirty dollars cash, a new silk hat for every season, and a full suit of clothes for the minister." "Do you really men it?" Of course I do, and if that two-cent Christian from Boston dares to sign another five I'll sent you down a $500 church organ and pay a man $500 er year to play it.

From Lecture by John Stoddard ito "sDoJtdn After the blowing up of the diinfe oom by the Nihilists in their attempt to assassinate the Czar, the police made thorough -examination of the build- a i mg, a task that took several weeks and in course of which there were many surprising and curious revela tions. The extent ot tne population of the palace had hitherto been unsuspected there were over people living within its walls, and 'no. one knew how they all catiie Many families had evidently conte in with former Czars, and, their descendehte id been corn there and had died t1ere.

One curious thing discovered- was ft cow kept in ashed on the' palace roof. The palace had shabby looking exterior, covered wih stucco, which had caled off in places, showing the com-iiion bricks beneath The interior was however, wonderfully rich ud rane- For the Good of the Church. The ladies are very ingenious in inventing plana and methods to obtain money for church purposes, but it is ry seldom their religious zeal will .11 them to make a sacrifice of their person til adornments. This last was left, for a parish priest in Italy to introduce. He was very much in need of an altar for his church, but hecould not induce the male mem iters to contribute to that end.

He i hen resolved to experiment upon the, softer natures of his parishioners. Ascending the pulpit after high 'mass, one Sunday morning, he conclu led an -eloquent sermon by, exhorting the women present to devote their hajr to the siicred purpose he had so frequently and -unsuccessfully, recommended to their natural protectors. So saying, lie, produced from the bosom of his cassock, a pair of Targe sharp scissors, andrctire'd'to his sacristy, im pressively matrons and maidens alike to follow 'Tiim thither. No fewer than 212 submitted their locks to his pastoral a'ntV when th sacrifices had been fully the female population bf Montanaro found itself as short of hair, as a cob-vict just tcapd irdm recpived his death wound.

In the light thev passed through a woods' just beyond which, in a clearing, lay jur of Sickles' b.tttei a flying artillery battery, and the Eighth Pennsylvania cavalry. The latteries were not in ijiSiition, hut were 'packed'' awaiting orders. Through their lines dashed the fugitives, hotly pursued by Jitcksons immense, corps of over 20,000 men. Infantry, artillery imhulahccs, pack-mule, negroes and stragglers, the worst scared men ever looked upon, came tearing -past as if they were mad. Batteries had no com-inanders, but eiich Captain acted for himself.

"Battery, left wheel, fire to the rear. battery caisons, pass your pieces; trot, march!" nnd a frightened bugler caught only the word "trot," and sounded it the more. It rang out clear above the worse than Babel. Many took it for a general stampede signal, and across the field, and down a hill, and over a stone wall near its foot, in that faipous ravine, dashed several caisons and it few "Fix prolong, to fire retiring." "With canister load!" On enme the fugitives nearer and nearer through the-1 woods came thai Confederate yell and tlie rush of Stone- Jackson's victorious legions. Sickles was almost a mile away, pushing through the woodswjth his splend'ii corps.

A critical examination of the speed of the English railroad time does not sustain the commonly-accepted notion of their great velocity nor prove that progres in accelerating speed which as to be looked for in this country in which the railroad was born and cradled. The famous "Flying Dutchman" on the Great Vetern Kailroad makes the run from London to Exeter, 194 miles, in four hours and fourteen minutes.

With tour it attains a speed of almost fort.v-.--ix miles an hour. A train on the Great Northern Railroad the "Leeds Express," doe3 better. It makes the distance from London to Leeds, ib7 miles, in four hours, almost 17 miles an hour, with foiif 'stops. The train carrying the Irish mail to Uolyrood, over the London line, and dubbed years ago -The Wild Irishman," has now sunk nto comparative obscurity with its rate of a little less than forty miles an hour. The competition over several of the lines to the populous Scotch cities leads to some last schedules.

The morning express of the Great Northern llo.ul makes only four mops along tin-tine from London to Edinburgh, S9i niles and flies over the whole distance in hours, with an average rate of al most forty-four milt an hour, and on midland line the nujht Scotch express run the 423 miles to Glasgow villi a speed of forty and a half in hour. These are the four swiftest trains in England, and as will be seen, ihe Leeds express with its rate of forty-even miles an hour, is the fleetest ol theni all. Three outof the four trains probably beat he running time for tin-name distance on any other roads in the world. Tuey are far fi i a shorter distance by the train on the Pennsylvania Railroad which leaves Jersey City at 4:10 p. and makes the run of about; eighty-fight miles to Philadelphia in 100 initiates, with one stop at Trenton.

The dfty two and eight-tenths miles, an Dour made by the American train if-probably without parallel in the sched iile time of any. railroad company on die. globe. If may be mentioned that the fast trains recently put on. by the Pennsylvania and Vanderbilt roads ie tween New York and Chicago compart well as to time with the long runs on the English and Scotch hues, and mor than double, as to distance.

On both the American and English sys terns bi railroads it must be remembered thai for short stretches of straight with gooU.rroad bod ami favoring grades, a speed of sixty hour is not uticommonor The ordi uary time Of passenger trains on tin British -railroads dues not vary much, 4 any frrim the corresponding on our steel-railed lines about live mileij an hour for express and twenty-five for accommodation trains.
