bonde, M. Moline, finding the ntnitheis wore
the stone as those en the list sent by the
Dominicans el Lille, calmed Pierre Brognead
to be arrested. Thtienenk, on being inter-
regated, owned that he had been 'enabled
by fake keys which a Lille leekamith mama
faiattiredfer him en the model of the real
oneeste open the iron safe of the order.
He committed the robbery the night after
he left the monastery, when all the inmates
were in bed. simply by unlocking every
door that came In his way. On quitting
Lille he deolded to renounce an eadeelastical
life. He simulated anklet° by lowing hie
monastio atilt en the bank of a river, where
they were found. He swam to the other
side, and, as he had prepared the brother-
heed for 'abide, they oonoluded, when his
!tack and underclothing were found, that
he had drowned himself. Then under the
name of Barthier he proceeded to Bordeaux,
and told every one he met about the suicide
of the monk Broohard, ao that he was never
suspected ef the robbery, paid, would not
,have been detected but for the money
changer noticing the numbers of the Ann

Nothing could be more full than the

had anything to add' in extenuation ofhis
effete 3, be said that he had a grave malady
which odenee was powerlese, to cure, and
that owing to its effects en hh brain he was
unable to preach. It was, under the in:
flume of this derangemennthat he planned-
and excated the rootery which, hoownea,
he went about Ina 'aeol-and cautions 'mon
ner that seemed incompatible with the men:
tat state he described. His orime wall abom•
inahle, and kb repentairee was deep ' and
bitter. A Daminkan brother wageoelled by
Breohard'a mussel' as a' witziess of the oir-

he informed the jury that aocording to the

.. Scotland was an Independent kingdom
from the earliest times, The first attempt
to assert the supremacy of England was
made by William the Conqueror, who, in
return for predatory raids by the Soots over
the border, invaded &Gotland in 1072, and
me,de King Malcolm, acknowledge him as
ovenlerd. This aoknowledgment was the
'muse of much dielention, but the
national intents of the two kingdoms wree
believed tebeindissolubly united by the
marriage of the daughter of Malcolm to
Henry 1,, king of England. In 1286 the
direct royal line Iry Scotland became extinow
and there were several claimants to the
de Kin Edward e. of
throne. These ma g
England the arbiter of their claims, aud he
decided in favor of John Balliel. ,In return
for -hie favor Edward compelled King John
to wear allegiance to him as his ever -lord.
John being forced by hie subjoota to disavow
the allegiance, Edward resolved upon the
conquest of Scotland. He invaded the
century with a great army, deposed the
kiog, and finally.aook peosesslon of the
kingdom. Then fell -owed the twenty years'
struggle for independence on the part of the
Scots, headed first by William Wallace and
after kb death by Robert Bruoe. E3ward

ended with the complete overthrow of the
&tallith army at the battle of Bannockburn
in 1314, England acknowledged the full
independence of Scotland by treaty in 1328,
and from that time the aggressions of the
stronger kingdom were only those provoked
by the Soots themselves. To gratify her

A Notable Tilt.
.Col. Ingersoll , was thrown accidentally
into the society of Henry Ward Beecher.
There were four or five gentlemen' pre-
sent, all ,of whom were prominent in the
world f b In A variety f
o ra s. o topica waa
discussed with decided brilliancy, but no
allusion made tie 'religion. The, distin-
gabbed infidel wee, of course, too polite
to introduce tbe subj?.et himself, hut one
of the party, finally desiring to see a tilt
between Bob and Beecher, made a playful
remark about Col. Ingeraollankoisynoracy,
as he termed it. The Colonel at once de-
,
fended his views.in .his usual apt rhetoric ;
in fact, he waxed eloquent. He wa3 re -
„ „
Pneu to by several gentlemen In very d-
fective rapartee. Contrary to the expect-
tenons of ad, Mr. Beechen remained an
abstracted listener, and said not a word.
,
The gentleman who introduced the topic ,
with the hope that Mr. Beecher would
answer Col. Ingersoll at last remarked:
"Mr. Beecher, have you nothing to say
on tMs question 1"
"The old man slowly lifted himself
from, his attitude and. replied: ,
"Nothing -in fact, if you ;will excuse
me for changing the conversation I will
1
say that while you gentlemen were talk -
'
mg, my mind was bent on a most dopier.
able epecta,cle which I witnessed to.day."
"What was 104 1' at once inquired. Col.
.
Ingersoll who, notwithstanding his peon -
liar views Of the hereafter, is noted for his
kindnee of heart.
"Why," said Mr. Beecher, "as I was
walking down town to -day I saw a poor,
lame man with crutehee slowly and can-
'fully picking his way through a coined
of mud, id the endeavor to °rose the street.
He had just 'reached the middle of the
filth, when a big, burly ruffian, himself
all bespattered, noshed up to hlm, aod
jerking the crutches from under the
unfortunate man, left him oprawling tsnd
helpless in the pool of liquid dirt which
