In place of shrinking back out of sight as the other unfortun- ate, they rushed to the very limits of their cells to get a view of thee visitors. one exclaiming,"It is good to get a sight of a human face again besides that of the keeper of this den." The next cell contained a young man of about nine- teen summers. He seemed to have an air of dignity about him that clashed greatly with, his surroundings. His face was ghastly white and a tremor about the mouth indicating the agony he was suffering by tolerating the, visitors. We spoke kindly .to him and asked wh f he was there. He then answered in broken sentences and sorrowful tones, "I am here because I chose evil companions and through their influence, broke my temperance pledge. God knows I did not rob or steal as I am accused but was- seen in company with those who did just a short time befor* the act." This gave a fine example of what accociates may do for each other. If companions are not equal in character the weaker will yield to the stronger influence. If the stronger influence be for the Satanic master, then the weaker is led into the, very depths of vice and crime. While on the other hand, if the stronger be high in morals and christian truth trying to serve the Master of the Uni- verse, his influence leads the weaker into the level of his .example. Every person in the world has an influence either for good or evil. Be very careful that you do not use that influence in the wrong way nut use is to . stimulate the poor, weak vessels of htmnanite paths of virtue and; peace and =1 Oh 1 if the liquor traffic e :et'ohIy abolished how much misde°t•wonld be spared the human race. We proceeded to the dungeon where doomed prisoners were placed before death. i was always of the opinion that a dungeon was a deep, dark, damp place or room under ground but was surmised to -find that .I had to climb - another flight of iron step turret of the building. We ere shown into a very small room, -about large enough for felur to stand iu. then the light was all shut off and we were in the dark, while one of us jestingly quoted Milton's words, 'For those rebellious here their prison ordained in utter darkness." What must be the feelings of those doomed, shut up in reality in a dungeon, in compliauce with the law. What must their feelings be when they, think of their prisoned souls about to be launched into eternity. To be coufinued. Temperance Column. Edited by the Mildmay Branch of the W.C.i.U. THE PRISONERS. WRITTEN BY MRs. (REV.) GALLAGHER. Upon a visit to a small American town . in one of the United States, I chanced with -a few other friends, to visit the --county court house and jail. That visit and its associations are stamped upon my •memory in such a way that the "Sands of Time can never deface." Even now the dark stone walls loom np before me and I can hear the sepulchral sounderiade by -the mas- sive iron door as it cllkd behind us shutting out all the be:3uties of the outer world and closing ' us in to look upon the miserable side of life, piottrred in all its wretchedness. I shall not at- tempt to describe the weird appearance of the outside of the building, with its huge walls and iron grated windows but will try to give the reader the benefit of what I saw there, and the train of thought that succeeded my observations. We passed through a narrow corridor, then entered a large apartment, which seemed at first sight to be divided into stalls and cased with iron, but upon close (xamination I found that one large iron barred or latticed crate was in the room and subdivided into several apartments both on the lower and upper floor. It resembled the cages for wild animals that are seen in shows, but stronger and larger. There was a passage all around this apartment on the lower floor and in going through the passage, a view of each cell was obtained. I had gone the length of the passage without seeing any of the pris- oners and was returning to ascend the upper floor when my, eye caught a crouching figures in the kthest corner of the nearest cell, trying te,keep out of sight and hide his diste since behind the rude couch placed in the cell.:,I stood and peered between the bars; that the prisoner turned' his back and ere'a,the manly, well formed shoulders seethed to try to escape my gaze. The hands. were placed to the head, one on each side in the very, posture of torture. and despair and the words of Dryden, "Oh winds bear me to some barren island, Where print of human foot was never seen," came to my mind and seemed to des- cribe the wish of the prisoner at that moment. Upon inquiry I learned from the keeper the name •of thir forlorn creature and the nature of his crime. No wonder he wished to hide for he had been branded as a tree son of Cain and accused of spilling the blood of a fellow creature. After this information I wished to leave the room for the very atinostphere seemed gloomy and full of visions of a spectral nature. We were then directed to the upper floor where we passed around the cells on a small enclosure of iron work. We saw three prisoners but none of these seemed to realize their positions, prob- ably because their crimes were minor offences,and their hearts hardened by North of the Pry Ofllces FOWWICItr News Notes.

Kin- loss, left home for Teeswater_ drinng a team of horses. While on #jke, w.. v the horses ran away and threw therm both out. Mr. Waddell was colasiderably in- jured and returned home ' while Mrs. Waddell procured another team their farm on the 5th con. of Culross and accompanied by a boy,- came Ju to Teeswater, and after transacting some -- business left for home. ;They were proceeding by a bye -way $32s4r'- from the 4th con. of Culross, to their farm in Kinloss, and were within a short distance of the farm buildings when a second runaway . took place. The unfortunate woman was dished against a tree receiving terrible inl4uries from the effects of which she died in a few minutes. The boy escaped but slight injuries. The horses seem to have been a parr of very nnmaneable brutes, and have run away 'on several occasions during the past summer. On two occasions Mr. Waddell himself was severely hurt on one of these his life being despaired of for some time. .fie victim of this melancholy accident was also injured more than a year previous:. to this terrible event which hurled her so soddenly into another world.--Tees- water News.
