NIGHT IN A. GREAT CITY

paper is rul Together.
There are certain unconsoious hours be-
tween midnight and the dawning, the thne
whets theatres are dark and ealoons, silent;
when tho trolley has ceased its distressing
sibillation, and the streets are given over to
the infrequent tinkle of the night car bell;
when the roar of traffic has subsided, and
the watchman's footfall is heard with start-
ling distinctness on the stony pavement;
when adventurous rats •come boldly from
their lurking places to forage in the gutter;
when even the rapacious banana man has
swallowed his mercenary chant and has gone
home to dream of TLISCSEI hills aud grassy
valleys; when drowsy stem blink for very
sleepiness, and the late full moon struggles
with the electrio light to swathe the night
in spirit garments of white. Between the
hours of 12 p.m. and 5 a.m., when Jarvis
and Moor and the host of lesser regulential
streets have donned their night saps, py-
jamas or other slumber clothes, when rich
and poor are wrapped in the arms of Mar-
pheus—a gentleman, by the way, whose
embrai
ces are strietly mpertial—down isa
that portion of the city most congested by
day there is still a silent army of workers
laboring in the night.
THE PEOPLE WHO suotrrenner as orr.
But first,e.s to those who have no business
to be out at these uncanny hours. The
young inan who has heard that spirits walk
abroad in darknees, staggers from his too
familiar intercourse with them. He it is
who vexes the drowsy ear ot night by sing-
ing songs of Bacchanalian import in a VOWS
as husky as the whistle of the Chicon. His
inclinations run to cabs furiously driven to
various places where he "knows the ropes."
Tha hotel clerk, who goes to bed when there
are no longer those around to appreciate
the glitter of his diamond, knows him not,
but the sleepy porter who takes his place
can tell you how very thirsty he was and
how many bottles of ale be drank at 25 ciente
per swiggie. Perhaps it is well that some.
one shoald keep tally,for when this amateur
Fortunatus, who la the daytime wields a
yard stick, wakes up next morning with a
seal brown taste in hi a mouth he can re.

ary. He cam "pain; the town red" only so
long as his scanty material lasts, aud so by
2 a.m. he ha e reached his tether, crept into
his boerding house by the back winclowand
fallen lido oblivion on the bask stairs.
Requieseae in pace. Time who bewail the
nightly vice of great, cities must except To -
rout°. The picture sketched above is not a
frequent one.
THEY NEVER SLEEP.
Everyone knows that while the city
sleeps at least one-third of Chief Graseet's
noble blue -coated three hundred keep
watch and ward over their lives, their pro.
perty and their dreams. Of wars° a
policeman never sleeps on his beat. Unlike
the great Miner, 110 does not even nod.
He never retires tato a secluded doorway
and indulges in a clandestine puff of it
cigar given to him by some belated but
affectionate reveller. He never waits un.
til the patrol sergeant goes by to take
front his pistol poeket a charge far less
deadly and much more refreshing than
lead. He does none of these things. The
general security of all entrusted to his °aro
is the test record that he does his duty.
The private watchman is another creature
of the night. He is much more friendly
than your ropier peeler. He will stand
and deliver to a reporter all that he knowa
with the utmost grace and good nature. In
case of a fire he is able to give the most
minute details. He has the insurecce and
companies and tenants by heart. He is a
walking encyclopeedia of information, and
he always ends up "1 pulled the box. My
name is Jones—John Jones." Yes, the
private watchman has a greet thirst for
newspaper fame, and is jealously regerded
by those other regularly constituted guar-
dians of the peace who have brass buttons.
There is one grey head and jovial face
known to every night bird. It is that of
Watchman Burroughs. Night in and night
out, winter and summer, ram and moon-
shine, storm and no moon at all, fora score
of honorable years has Watchman Bur-
roughs answered the question :
"WHAT 05' THE MORT ?"
His dog Jack is grown old in the service,
and when his master stops to have a chat
he is glad enough to stretch out on the
pavement aud take a res.t. But honest,
faithful Jack ever keeps one eye open, and
no one has ever had the hardihood to say he
was not as vigilant as he should be. And
what a mine of information is Watchman
Burroughs! He is the good angel of young
reporters seeking for news. And his father-
ly interest in their behalf has prevented
more than one of them from being regularly
and properly "scooped." Long may he
live, he and his dog Jack."
Then there are the water police—the night
watch of the S. 0. E. life boat station. The
little dingey goes out at midnight for a two-
hour patrol on the water front. Within it
the aquatic Colling, the Argus -eyed and
Briareus handed Mr. Barnsdale or that de-
lightfully reminiseent man -o' -war's man Mr.
Tyler. 'Tis true that there be not inany
water thieves nowadays. Pirates are few
and far between, and murderers have other
means of disposing of their victims than by
dumping them in tee bay, but the water
patrol nevertheless does a very useful work
in finding and restoring what might become
flotsam and jetsam if left alone.
A midnight ride in the dingey, with the
full moon silvering the lisping waves with
molten music, with the dark outlines of the
island to the south and the mysterious
mingling of cloud and water beyond, with
the ghostly forms of palace steamers and
white -winged yachts along the shores is an
object lesson in beauty, which would make
even the cynic a poet.

Pell Into a Don of Snakes.
A Shamokin, Pa., :special cieys:—Shartle
Weist, John Orwiok and Aaron Numah,
tines well kuowa sporting men of thie
place, came into town the other night with
thirty-two dead snakes. There were
twenty-one rattlesnakes, the largest bank
four feet long and three inches thick, threg
copperheads and eight black snakes. One
of the black snakes was two inches thice
and five feet long. The story they told of
their battle with these snakes was enough
to make the hair stand on ene's head. They
bad been out in Brush Valley hunting for
ground hogs. Weist proposed desoeuding
an air hole, cauled by the mines being
worked too near to the surface. The bot-
tom of the hole was covered with a thick
undergrowth of laurel and ever -green,
They all clambered down, Waist lead-

The side of the hole was as smooth
denly an army of snakes glided towards !
him. He discharged both barrels at them,
blowing six to pieces. The rest crept on.
Twice again he fired, and shrieked for help.
His cries were drownect by his companions
overhead firing with great rapidity at the
reptiles, now thoroughly mad. with pain and
fright. Weise was finally surrounded by a
writhing mass of serpents. He could not
shoot, so, grabbing the gun by the baerel,
he struck out right mad left, At laet he
began to grow faint. When his comrades
discovered his terrible peril, Numah thrust
his gun.barrel over the crag, and. Waist
grabbed it. Then Nutruth and Oreviok
atarted to pull han tip. At Ulla moment a
large rattler leaped at him. But he kicked
its head ofr with one foot, and with the
other crashed it black snake against the
side of the rock. Then his feet cleared tbe
top of the crag, and he was safe. He had
clung to his gun all this time, and, after re-
covering breath, he aided. his friends in
shooting into the mass of snakes directly
below. When their cartridges were ex-
hausted they secured long poles and fished
out all the dead 'makes they could and
carried Cum home. An expedition will be
formed to visit the hole and finiah the re-
mainder.
Substitute for Glass.
The substitute for glass, brought to
notice some time ago by a manufacturer in
Vienna, Austria, observes a writer in the
New York Sun, is pronounced it practical
thing, likely to be introduced as valuable
for certalixpurposes. The article is produc-
ed by diasolving from four to eight parts of
collodion wool in about 100 parts by weight
of ether or alcohol or acetic' ether, and with
this are intimately combined from 2 to 4
per cent. of castoroil and 4 to 10 per cent.
of resin or Canadian balsam. Tide com-
pound.when poured upon a glass plate and
subjected to the drying action of a current
of air about 50 per cent. solidifies in a com-
paratively short eime into a trans parent glass-
like sheet or plate, the thickness of which
may be regulated as required. The sheet
or plate so obtained has substantially the
same properties as glass, resisting the action
of salts and alkalies, and of dilute acids,
and, like glass, is transparent and has no
smell. Again, it is said to be pliable or
flexible and infrangible to a great degree,
while its inflammability is muoh less than
that of the collodion substitutes. Any de.
sired color may be imparted to the com-
pound by admixture of the necessary pig-
ment, the latter to be soluble in the solvent
used in the preparation of the compound if
incorporated therewith; but color may be
imparted by surface application, anniline
dyes being employed, and thus the sheets
may be used in lieu of stained glass.
Massacre on a Dutch Steamer.
The following official despatch has been re.
ceived regarding the recient fatal fighting on
a Dutch steamer:—"On the 27% ult. a riot

the Dutch flag, off the coast of Acheen, be-
tween Telok Semen and Bali. The crew

ers who never washed themselves, who ate
rotten herrings with their fingers, and slept
with them under their pillows; who made
private conveniences ot their bunks, which
• caused an insupportable stench for a fort-
night. These five men took off i heir clothes
for the first time last night since they left
England,
"And whfdid you'come out bYthis line ?"
asked tee Rev. Mr. Renaud. The answer
was—first, because it was cheap; second,
because the agent promised better treat.
'Tient than the English lines, as this boat
carried only steerage passengers, who would
thus be waited upon better than if there were
three sets of passengers; third, bemuse they
were sole miller promised that the moment
they landed the agent would have situations
for them.
And is it possible that people in England
believed these liea ?" Mr. Renaud asked.
"Everybody believes it," was the answer.
"Bat there was no agent to obtain us
employment, and we can't find it at our
trade by the most diligent searchlag."
"This is one of thegreatest cruelties of
the immigration business," was the coni.
mane of Mr. Renaud. "These agents go up
and down the country lying to the people
right and left They promise them every.
thing and they make not the elightest effort
to prooure them anything. Ib is a thousand
pitiee that no way could be found of reach-
ing and punishing them. Of course, it is
an old story with ue, but it is too bad that
it could not be generally known in the Old
Country that no reliance could be placed in
the stories of the agents. Canada is a good
country, and no doubt these respectable
young men will be all right in a shore time,
although it is laborers rather than artisans
we want; but it is too bad that they ehould
have been deceived."
And about this immigration business
generally," continued Mr. Renaud; "I filed
that we have to make the olosest scrutiny
into the cliareetere of some who come out.
I refer more particularly to young girls who
fiod their way Into our homes, and have a
good deal to do with the bringing up of our
oya and girls. On the whole, they are
fairly respectable this season, but there are
black sheep =OWE them. The societies
on the other side, no matter what inquiries
they make, aro now and then deceived.
No complaint could be made about a per.
aon who, having committed a wrong, was
iiorry for the wrong, and came out deter.
mined to do better. Notat all. Snek per.
sons deserve every encouragement. But

Piftson Days in Opsu Beate,
Captain Gjortsen aud crew of the steamer
Arctic have arrived at Christiana. The Are.
tis was lost on June 8 at JanlIagu. The
taptain and crew, 29 in all, took to the
boats and landed after 15 days of great
suffering and anxiel at Akulgri, Iceland,
All they had in the oats was some brisad
it little bacon, and a trifle of butter.
Water they had none, and clothes only
what they had on. There were six boats,
two of whiohamon capsized. The men iu
them were sawed, but the provisions were
lost. They set their course for Iceland, ,
but their position soon became deepemte.
Fog and afterwards storms were encount-
ered, but the boats managed to keep to. ,
gether. On June 13 they reached the edge 1
of the ice, and. could then satisfy their
thirst, having had no water for four or
five days. Some time was spent on the ice,
off and on, for several days. Once or
twice the boats were in a mese critical
position. The men, however, bore up well.

the following afternoon Alzugri was
reached, after 15 days' terrible hardship,
during which the men had hardly anything

Awkward Bequest to the Sultan.

tionaries in Egypt to the Sultan on the
occasion of the visit of the Khedive to Con.
stantinople, in favour of British evacuation,

the Sultan, continues as follows :—" And

The Old Dog.
TWA the dog should live only to the age
of twel ea years or thereabouts, and the
horse only to that of twenty or thirty,while
the crow cam in the fields for seventy or
eighty years, and the parrot chatters in his
eage for a period exceediug the life of man,

a dog's term of existence were such that he
mialit begin hie coin auionship with and
devotion to a human beior with his own
and the human being's infancy,and continue
it through hie master's life to his ripe old
age, what romantic and famous atts.ohments
betweeu dogs and men we should have!
As it is, a dog's prime is scarcely reached
before his decline begine. To tram a hunt-
ing '!.9g well requires about three yeara of
Ins lite. From that time an for three or
four years more he may be his master's
pride and joy. Then he begins to lose his
skill and strength, and soon passes into

of tsrth:umatle pains as it is of dreams of the

M. de Cherville, a French writer upon
subjects connected with country life, has
devoted an interesting chapter to the old
age of dogs. He speaks of the feet that the
more completely and unreset veiny a dog has
• given himself up to his master's aervice,
showing no fatigue and rushing at his com-
mand into wet marshes, thd worse he is
filieted with lameness, blindness and deaf-
oess in Ids old age.
M. de Cherville had is dog which had
become wholly deaf and almost blind with
old age, as well as almost helplessly lame
with rheumatism. The dog slept ;limpet
all the dine ; but he retained a. keen pas-
sion for the chase, and it was impossible
for his master to get away from the house
with a gun on his shoulder without the old
dog, unless the animal was locked up.
On one occasion, when M. de Cherville
thought he had eluded the old dog, lie
found, when in the field, that the faithful
creature was limping after him, whining
with the pain of inoving his old limbs, but
keenly on the alert, as well as his eye -sight
would permit, for game.
Presently the master saw the dog "point-
ing" at a partridge. De Cherville could not
resist the temptation to kill one more bird
for the veteran. He fired, the partridge
dropped, and the dog, with the one-quarter
of an eye which remained to him, hunted
it out and brought it to his master,
Bringing the bird at a Envie , lumber-
ing gallop, the dog did what he had never
done before in the field ; he got upon his
hind legs, planted his foremives on De Cher-
ville's SI3Ouldere, and dropped the bird on
lila breast. Then the dog fell to the ground,
rolled over two or three times, and was
dead. His last supreme effort in his mas-
ter's behalf had killed him.
Though the last days of a dog's life are
so pitiful, M. de Cherville says he is
never able to haste:i such a creature's
death.
"At this moment," he says, "an oia fe-
male dog lies on the rug at my feet. She
Is half -blind and helpless. From time to
time I hear her utter a walled bark, and I
can see a tremor run along her skin. She
is dreaming, and therefore remembering.
Surely she is dreaming of her good days
that are gone.
"Once more she is in the field. The
odor of the game collies to her nostrils like
a perfume. She creeps up through the tall
grass upon her prey; she plays with the
illusion of it now as she once played with
the reality.
"We human beings, too, live, when we
are old, in the remembrance of the past,
finding in the evocation of joys and triumphs
of our youth tha only consolation for the
sad monotony of our declining days.
Though life is but a memory, we would not
relinquish it; and if the aged dog shares
with us this privilege of remembering the
past, let us not deprive her of it.
"Knowing little of the present, and,
nothing of what is to come, I deem it beteer
to live than to enter into the unknown ;
and I hesitate to launch into that unknown
any creature that I love."
