' It is printed under the pen\nname of \" Hugh Allen,\"and is declared\nby critics, who have been shown the\nadvance sheets, to be the best story of\nthe war ever written. The first instalment of it appeared in No. 3, Vol. xxiii\nof the Ledger, but, in order to reach all\nclasses of' the people, the publishers\nwill moil the opening chapters of the\nstory free of charge to all who fieud in\ntheir names at once.

When the-AP.R.

It was frequently impossible for the employees\nof a-mining coinp.Hny to pay their $5\n-license fee at tho time- tho collector applied for it, and the Hill made the company themselves liable for the collection of the license. -\nL_Mr. Semlin said that the Bill had only\nbeen placed on members' desks that\nafternoon and they we're accordingly\n\"unfamiliar with its provisions.

We had been winning our\nshare of tho money,  both   on   our own\nhorses and bu those of other owners and\nthe sens'-ii had oriciiud  up   in ' the most\npropitious fashion.    'All of tho American continge'b.t took advice from 'Potie.'\nas we   called   Walton,    and   wo   had\nmade    tho    ring    wince   several times\non    Bottling     day.      Sherwood,     who\ntrained   for   Walton. , had a very high\nopinion of Hopeful, and wanted   to run -\nhim in a stake race, but wo begircd him\nto hold olf and pick out a   selling event\ninstead, and prepared  to   make  a coup\nthat would be talked about fur  mouths\nto como.     Alter seeing   the   City and\nSuburban run we ran back to London,\nand from there \"took the train fio Epoom.\nwhere our   horses   were  quartered.    It\nwas our purpose  to  deceive  everybody\nas to our intentions,   and that  morning\nthe\" horses were brought out. trotted and'\ncentered,   and  carefully   put away, as\nthough they had had all their work for\nthat day.    ]u the   afternoon,   when the\nDowns   were    deserted,     Hopeful   aud\nSo !er   were   brought   out   i.i company\nwith Riciuuo.id, a i.igh-cla:-,.-, hoive,\" tlien\ntinii-od  by   Sherwood   but   afterw.-u-dg\nbought by Walton, and brought  to this\ncountry, rtii;niiigsthird iii'Pontiac's  Suburban.    The trial was a great  success\nand showed us'that Hopeful was a grand\nthree year old,   of   quality    siitneieiitly\nhigh to wiii'inany slakes for race hordes\nof hi:, age.

We were amazed\nto get as good a\ufffd\ufffd W to 1 against Hopeful, and, the strangest part of it all was,,\nthat the more wo but the more the ring\nseemed capable of absorbing.    Wo told\nJiiir jockey (1 won't mention Ins name,\nbut he was a good one in .his day, and\nmodt of you know.him) that we stood to\nwin a fortune and to take no cuances.\nFrom the start Hopeful was in a good\nposition, and after making a splendid\nturn at Tottenham Corner we began to\ncheer, for our chestnut beauty. was\nstriding along in front and moving over\nthe turf in magnificent style., A hundred yards from tho finish we were\nexulting in our triumph, and fifty\nyards from the 'line nothing but\na miracle could keep us from\ngetting the money:' Whips wero\nflying behind us and|our colt was still in\nhand.

Iu the perfecting\nof tho bodily organs, as of all other devices, necessity is the mother of invention. '   , i\nAb tho hand was given  moro and more\nto do, it became mote and more   adapted\nto its work.      Up   to a point it responded\ndirectly to each new duty   laid   upon   it.\nBut only up to  a   point.'     There  camo a\ntime   when   tho   necessities   became   too' -\nnumerous and too varied for adaptation to\nkeop paco with them.     And  the fatal day\nO'ime, tho fatal day for tho hand, when ho\nwho bore it mado a new dit.oovery.of tools.\nHenceforth what tho hand used to do, aud\nwas slowly becoming adapted to,do better,\nwas to bo dono by extoru.il appliances. ' So\nthat it anything new arose to bo  done,    to\nbe bettor done, it wits  not a better  hand\nthat   was   now   made,   but  a hotter tool.\nTools are external hands.

But soon ho made tools to make\ntliCKo tools. In plaoo of (limping things\nwith-the* hand, he invented the turning-\nlathe; to nave his fingers he requisitioned\nthe loom; instead of working his nmsch's\nho gavo out tho contract to electricity and\nsteam. Man, therefore, from ihi* timo\nforward will ecus- to dovelop materially\nthese organs of his body.

' \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd i:\nAn  Idea Th\ufffd\ufffdt Will  Dorelop  a* tJieVenn\n, Jofr  Alonp.\n, The   superiority of , refrigeration obtained by mechanical processes, as compared with   that  obtained   by melting\nice, appears in tho facts that bj* it more\nintense cold  may bo  Becured, that  any\ndesired degree of   cold   may be maintained with perfeot uniformity, thut &\ndryer   atmosphere - is   secured   iu   tbe\nrefrigerating box or room, that the m-\nconvenience of frequently replenishing\nice bunkers   and   the   slop and dirt attendant upon   this  work are avoided,\nthat the   annoying   uncertainty of   ico\nsupply and variability in ,its price aro\navoided,   thut  space   in ,tho   rooms or\nboxes  to bo cooled is economized', by\nsubstitution of a coil of pipe on walls oc\nceiling for tho  oulky ico   bunker, ami\nthat this refrigeration  con bo em ployed\nfor many purposes and places where ico\ncannot be used at all.    Add^d to all this\nis the  fact, of paramount importance,\nthat  whore  much   refrigeration  is re\nquired tho  cost of a machine and its\noperation is far less than the cost of ico\nsuuiciont to   do   an   equal   amount   of\nwork.\nThese   ndvaiitagea   have   proved   bo\n' groat in   practice   that every brewery,\npacking house, cold ' storage  warehouse\nor other establishment requiring a largo\namount   of   refrigeration   contains   iia\nindividual refrigerating   plant.    Where\nconsumption   amounts   to ten tons   or\nmore of ice daily, tho question  of  economy will bo   almost, invariably decided\nin favor of the machine; if le->s than tan '\ntons bo required, tho  cost of a machine\nmid its operation   may \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd exceed tho cost\nof ice sullicient to do ft similar amount\nof   work:     In   many   such   esses   tho\nnitperior   quality 'of   tho   rol'rigeiation\nobtained, its cleanlino98,\"'roliability and\n'convenience, or,the requirement of moro\nintense cold than   ice  will produce, so-\n, cures   the   adoption   of   tho   machine.\nTherefore,     small   machines fnro    frequently found on   shipboard,  in  hotels\nund   apartment,   housed ' and   in 'many\nmanufactories.    But   most  of   the   ico\ngathered from rivers and lakes, or made\nin factories, is'uot consumed liy the fow\nwho   require largo .quantities,   but by\nthe many  who,   sovorally,   requiro lees\nthan ton fcon3 a day. >\n'\"Tho effort to .bring this superior ro-\nfrigoratiou \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd within to*),roach of small\nconsumers has tokeo two directions\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nthe production of small and inexprinsivo\nautomatic machines, and a\" system fit\nsupply of the refrigerant from central\nstittious. Tho first lias failed' hitherto,\no because the balance of com.la!illy varying pressures, tomporatures, stiength of \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nsolution, etc., is too complex,a mattt-r\nfor purely automatic regulation. Without constant'skilled \"attention tho iiiii-,\nchines work unsatisfactorily, while'I ho\n.relatively high cost! of plant.'sfuel and\n-cooling water, in operating on n'sm-.ll\nscalo. defeats economy.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdCassicr's Magazine.

But it  was only in exceptional oases that unborn  children woro'\ndisposed of in tho   samo   way.    Such a\ncase, however,' is on rocord.

On   that   occasion it wad\nagreed that a daughter   of Charles IV., .\nwith which   ho  expected   to be blessed\nwithin five yearsrshould bo married to a\nson of Count Frederick, of whom it was\nalso hoped that he should  so 'bo provided.    This is tho youngest bridal   conulo\non  record.      Tho   hoped-for   daughter\ncame in 1373, the last year of the allotted\nperiod, and she in timo became tho wife\nof Johann HI.,   tho  son   of tho Count,\nwho also justified the expectations of his\nparonts.\nAn Old Custom.\nThe ancient English custom of giving\nlovo to.:ens on tho 20th of August died\n' not many yours  ago.    Tho  custom was\nfor   \"onaiuourod   maydes and   gentlewomen\" to givo to their favorite swains\nas tokens of love, .little  handkerchiefs,\nthree or four inches square, with a but-'\nton or tass'el at oachcorner and a  small\nono in the centre.    The  fiue.it  of- these\ntavors  were, edged  with  narro,-   gold\nlac'eor twist; and then, being folded up\n'in four   moss   folds i\"0   that the, middle\nmight be seen, thoy wero  worn   by   the\nfortunate hv ibis in their  hats 'or on t ho\nbreast.
