The following incident is a most ex-
citing and remarkable occurenee—mo re
especially when taken in connection
with the fact that a human life hung
upon "the throw of a dicer—
When William III. of England was
besieging Namur in the year 1(t95, (in
conjunction with the allies), some of
his soldiers went on a marauding ex-
pedition in the neighborhood of a camp
—notwithstanding the penalty of in-
stant death which had been promulgat-
ed against any soldier committing this
breach of the martial law. Tim count-
ry people who object( d to their proper-
ty babe* taken from them without pay-
ment, ceught most of the marauders,
and visited them with a speeay ven-
geance. Two soldiers, however escaped
and got back safely to the, camp., liot
however, without being pursued by the
peasants they had despoiled, who lodg-
ed their complaiut before the officee in
charge. The two soldiers were imme-
diately arrested, a drum -head coulee
martial was caked, and after the evid,
enee had been taken, both were at once
sentenced to death. The General -in -
thief was deprirous of saving the lives of
the two unlucky soldiers ; bat, for the
sake of 'eaaanple, it was decided that
the sentence must, be carried out upon
one of the offenders ; and to determ-
in which one should suffer and which
escape, recourse was had to the dice -
box. When the time of the exectition
arrived, the two soldiers were led to a
drum, near where the fatal pole was al-
ready fixed for the carrying out of the
sentence. One of the condemned, with
tremblinte, hand took up the dice and
threw in the presence of his comrades.
"TWc sixes ! two sixes !" was whisper-
ed 'round; and in all instant, his bro-
ther in trouble also threw two sixes !
The officers were puzzled, but ordered
the Tem to throw e second time.. Again
to the amazement to all equal num-
bers. we -e east—but this time two fives!
Their aellor-soldiers were loud in their
demands that the naerauders should be
pardoned, but application VMS made to
the court-martial for further instruc-
tion,.; and, rftez some delay, the order
was given. that eite ()fenders should
throe; a third theta. Trembling from
'heed to foot, and with heavy hearts,
tbs. poor for.,otes aeatin cast the dice,
when, to the further consternation of
all eroand, especially to the officers
charged to attend the caecatioa, the re-
sult was two fours ! The loud cry
then arose from the bystanders. "This
is God's hand! This is God's head 1"
The case Waci again submitted to the
court-martial. Even its most harden-
ed members shuddered; and it wasam-
enimously resolved to leave the dicision
to the general -in -chief, the Palace of
Vaudement. The two Englishmen
.weretbrought before him. and told him
the whole of the story, and, after lis-
tening attentively, the Prince uttered
the welcome word, aParden!" eg,
"it is impossible in such an uncommon
case not to obey the voice of ti's Provid-
ree " 'I,.11

charge of her, and she was taken be-

who discharged her. Spb.sequently up.
on learning the facts in the case, the
Hamilton chief of police gave Detec-
tive Miller the assistance of his officers
to search the town and, if possiblefind
the woman. She had.started for Buf-
falo, which fact the officers learned in
time to follow her in the next -Lain.
Arriving in Buffalo she walked three
miles to,Black Rock, where she Maned -
ed to cross over the Niagara to Fort
Erie on a ferryboat. At this point the
officers overtook her, and wore about

ind the shore, when 'Red' Leary of
NOW York and 'Jim' May, two noted
cracksmen, aiiterfered and threatened
to shoot the .officers if they boarded the
boat. They dared not and the woman
escaped. She then went to New York,
and -from there'eame to West Troy, ort
Friday last. From there she went to
Albany, and at 8.30 p. ra. came .to
this city. Detective Miller traced her
here Wednesday and communicated
with Supt. McKenna. _Miller remain-
ed in the Troy Houeenntil night, when
in company with Detective Ryan, he
started out on a tour of inspection.
Several saloons tidal all the hotels were
visited, and at 9.80 o'clock they found
the name, Airs. Danlass, on the regis-
ter at Cozzen's Hotel. The proprietor
kuew nothing of the woman, and they
asked to see her, but were informed that
she had gone to Albany, and intended
to go frorn thence to Schenectady, re-
turning at 9.40 p. m. When the New
York Central train arrived at the Union

information was received that she had
gone to New 'York. Miller was sent
for and came to Troy yesterday after-
noon inbending to go dir .ct to New
York. As he had a few hours to spare
before taking the train, he and the De-
tective Ryan started out to see if they
could not get some definite trace ()flier.
At eight o'clock they entered Benjamin

.11e,seeding 014 Paotare,
For many years the opinion waa er-
roneously held that pastures shottail
never be ploughed, for if the sward was
once broken it was thought it would
never again become so compact as to
form a good grazing turf. . But this
opinion was wrong. Pastures may ba
broken, and planted with potatoes; in
the fall the potatoes are harvested, the
land lightly ploughed, amain the next
spring sown with barley and seeded
down with a mixture of gasses well
adapted for graziag, med. a good sward
at once obtained and maintained for
many years. The grasses iu our old
pastures aro chiefly- wild grasses, which
have found their way in by accident
rather than by design. La re -seeding
a pasture it is very important to have a
large quantity of seeds of those varieties
of grasses that flower successively at
aiareeent peeiceas,. and that aro well adapt-
ed forg razing. The following mixture
has been recommended: Meadow fox -
tail, two pounds; orchard grass, six
pouuds; six sweetscented vernal grass,
one pound; red -top, two pounds; Ken-
tucky blue grass, five pound, Italian rye
grass' four pounds; perennial clover,
tare() ponads ; or a total of forty pounds
of seed per acre, which would give the
enormous number of 54,000,000 seeds
or eight seeds to every square inch of
ground.. Who doubts that this would
in a favorable season, produce a good
thick permanent sward—aod that cat-
tle would graze from it in preference to
the worn out turf of the old pasture.?
