Presently it'000nrred to a the latter dust he might Ile well ascertain what sort of a tone could he prodneed by tho cnn- fisoated whistle, which he accordingly put to his lips and blew witch untimely vigor, Straightway there appeared up- on the scene a<horde °farmed brigands, who surrounded tha party, and, after freeing their comrade from his bonds, atttmlced his captors. The gendarme put spurs to his horse, broke through the circle of his assailants, and got away with a bullet in his shonlder. But the uniortunnte peddler, unable to escape, fell a viotim to the brntelity of the bandits, wbo 'hacked his body to pieces and left his mutilated remains on the high . road. Preparations are being made by the district authnritiee to surround the wood in which this banclof`malefaetors has fixed its head quarters. Such enterprises, however, are as rarely suoeeasful in Russia now- adays as they were of yore iu the King- dom of Naples. ALAReITNG PROPHECIES FOR ENGLAND AND Ai1MEItICA. I have Iaid out a penny in Ztad- lciol's Almanac," says Mr. Labouohere, " and 1 am filled with terror at the various troubles :which are predicted for next year. In January •.were and xumortt of wars' still afflict the British people ated do injury to their trade and commerce, tor Mars was sitting, at the winter solstice and afflicting the ascen- ding planet, Venue, by opposition as pect. Ireland will be disquieted, deeds of violie,�ce will be perpetrated in the Emerallf Isle, and epidemic diseases will be fatally prevalent therein. Sat urn is still slowty passing -through the sign Aries, hence old England's tron- bies wilt bo thiekeuieg, her enemies numerous, and her death rate high Denmark and Germany will be far from prosperous, and the state of Rus- sia will be lamentable. Poland. will be disturbed, Persia, }Leis Minor, Cyprus and the Archipelago will be the scenes of martial deeds and malarial epidem- ics. The 11th of the month brings. Mars into an ' evil configuration with 'ho place of the sun at the birth of an English prince, warning hint to beware of accidents and over-exertion.'' "I.: February, at the moment of the new new moon on the loth inst., the innli- naries will be in a square aspect with Mars. ,This is evil for the ruling pow- ers, and forebodes a cletertnined on- slaught on the government ; neverthe- less, as Jupiter will be strongly posited' in the eleventh hour, the government will weather the storm. In, March <, the diverse court willbe busily °con ` pied, and many oases of cruelty to wo- men will be brought before the police courts, for Venus opposes Uranus on the 24th inst." In April "the pres- ence .: of old Saturn in Aries will in- volve this country in some trouble, but be is shorn of most of his power to do mischief now that Jupiter hastens to Overtake him. In May " excitement will be tit fever heat in New York, and the marshalling of troops will move the martial instincts of the American people,' while in London, the metro- politan matte' is threatened with des-. tr alio c u n r o Mars transits 14 a the plane °, the moon at the vernal ingress." But in October the outlook is especially batt for its. " Holders of foreign bonds .must look out for sgnells, for at a mo- ment of frill moon Mars will be with the eau in the second holm and Saturn with the moon in the eighth. `hese evil omoned positions indicate a turbu- lent condition of politics as well as of the weather, and a severe strain will be placed upon the revenues of Great Bri- tain." The carious thing connected with all this' nonsense is that there are numbers who believe in title prophetic wisdom, for Ladkiel`s Almanac has an enormous sale. • That was a smart youngster, who, bearing his mother remark that sine' was fond of music, &coheilitod, ' Then why don't you buy mo a druid ?"
