And thus father and parted Dur- ing the fonr years of hi* studiiw An- dm - hit but rarely saw his father. The journey to Poltava was a long one. The net of railroads which now connects the South of Russia With the capital did not exist!even fci the wildest dreams of a logroll subject of the Cmt. Traveling was slow and expensive, and General Havelieffs fortune leas than modett. When at length at the end of his studies, which he atwomplisbed brilliantly, the young artillery officer, Andrei Ivanovib'h Havelieff, came to ptwt the lung vacation with his father in the small country house of Poltava, the latter was <|eeplv struck with the change iu Ihe appear- ance and the temper of his son. Instead of a merry, somewhat silent but healthy and blooming boy, there sprang but of the pert fcladntwa (mail cart) the Gen- eral had awaited with such throbbing im- patience, an earnest, pale man vrith a nervously expressive d4ply-mVrked face, with a tterv, piercing ana 1 unflinch- ing gaze—one of those young faces only to he found among the Kussian genera- tion of today—n face telling a tale of deep thought, of propature suffering, and of a great, tormenting love. Anil the boy's temper was changed too. Of his former awe, mingled will an impulsive tenderness towards his father, no trace was to be found. He met the latter respectfully, but witn a certain mien of independence and ot\ manly dig- nity which struck the old general with utter amazement, though it pleaaed him on the other hand to find in his sou something akin to his own iron nature. They met no more like father and ion, but like two soldier friends, ope yotti gcr than the other, but both hardened ii the great battle of life. It was, howjever, precisely this resemblance in| both their natures which brought thejm further apart than ever. Both were hot slow in detecting that they had no interest, no idea, no aim in life in ouiin.ni with each other. While the sou was scarcely able to answer correctly alibis father's qwniea abtjut the whereabouta of this or that general, the neweat patterns of uniforms. or the most recent events in the hte of the imperial family, the father felt but little interested and showed stjill lesaun- derstatnling for the olBmr's erudite ex- platiations of the newest improveioent tn artillery or the projeoted reforms in the military administration. Besides, the son had otherstudies whichengroaaed loin, . ti...r li. ii.L. , uwt *rt.M»t*m«Ji ou <irtU ley, which he read without ever showing them tot his father, Once tlie latter, coniingnnexptpctedl.vinto Iii-* sou's room, M»w the titles of two of tllftK) lsH.d(i% "The Life and Writings of Ferdinand rs»<*ehV," and "Commentarini on John Stewart Mill's Political Ecouomy,' Both names were naturally ujiknown to him, and the name of Tchernjvthevsky, the celebrated liussian tkHjiapt, l>eing not printed on the last namedilsiok, the brave old General retained uolothcrim- pres»tou from that incident titan that Lis sun, though a capital soldier, was some- what of a bookworm. in autumn Audruaha returned to St Petersburg and entered tho military academy. He paaacd, rapidly one glade of the military career after the otuer, wan iu ,1870 promoted captain, the fiiij>- ka jntss affair, during which the ycung military officer reuderetl signaj serviee*, bringing him th* dignity of colonel and the grand eri>»» of the St. (leorgo Onlr. At the same tune hi* name U'c^me vide- ly known in scientific circle*. He be- came, editor of one of the best military reviews of St. Petersburg, and his home wits the gathering place of the best tnd ablest representatives of civil as wel as military mtelligent circles. Thus years went on. The great Jihii- i»t movement broke out, holding Rus- sian society in a constant state of tgita- ti< >n and terror. The htorm even retched the old General its his solitary^ rttreat. HisexiMiperation against the "niisereants and mardererH" knew no bonijuls He even went so for as to write a lettc, ad- »lrcHi*ed personally to the Czarl ptoffer- ing his services for the "good am holy cause." ,4Ie never received any answer. The geeat humlier of young nobles impli- cated iii the consjiiracy was wnat *pe- cially appalled him. "Have All those young knaves no fathers with honor enough in their hearts to kill the vipers they have nourished in their bosom f' he used to exclaim when th^« papers brought to him the name of some WJW aristocratic "criminal.'* And then he Since that time Gen- eral Havelieff, who hated all traitors, ' even if they had rendered service to the f ood cause, had broken off relations with 'odbielsky, while the latter, rising rapid- ly, soon reached a prominent and influ- ential posiioh in the newly-formed j •'Third Section," or seoret police. Now : he was chief of the chancery of that dreaded institution, and moreover Speci- ally intrusted with the investigation of the Winter Palace explosion. That man wrote as folliws : "DKAB ClgNKBAI< : nemembering our former relaapous, allow me to address a word Of eainest warning to yoU. Your son has beat found'to be implicated in the case of tie dynamite explosion I am now investigating—" The old mon read no further.

On remaining alone the General's first impulse was to burn the letter without reading it. On considering, however, the position Rbdbielsky occupied and the responsibilitjibe iucurred by Writing Huch a communication, Savelieff soon convinced himself that the letter con- tained more than an empty threatjor an utterly groundless calumny. He picked up the paper read on { "Thesis, to his guilt. for him is to his arrest.

He threw open the folding doors m the terrace and stepped out into the gard-n. And there he ts now, pacing Mjand fro the gravel walk and crunching the paper'ho hohls iu his baud with a nervous grip. "A few hoars," he mutters, "every moment yjhese people may come and take him awa^r. I must, I must sja-ak to him, hear from hinithat he is innocent." Having formed this resolution the General raised |ii» head and walko.i l.,,.-k into the bouse frith a firm step. There wits still a light in his son's room when he knocked at the door.

He began bis rounds, and smvei-il.-d in finishing the entire list—with a single exception. Up four flights of stairs, in a poor tenement house, lived, or hoveled, an in- temperate map who was so repulsive ami savage that he dared hot meet him. The minister's friends had warned him not to call there for fear of personal harm. The wretch had driven his family away. Nobody could live with him, and he was best let alone. He was a "beast" This was confirmed by the minister's own im- pressions the few timeahe had seen the drunkard, and he shunned him. Still the good man could not help feeling ashamed of his fears; and the shame grew upon him the more he thought of the matter.* Atlast, one splendid morning, rising, after a perfect night's rest, full of. vigor and spiritual courage, he saidtohimaclf, *• Jiow is my time to go to Pij»cr's Alley and see Tim Burke. I'm just in the mood." He went straight to the place, climbed through the dirty entries, and knocked at the man's door. He listened, and then knocked again—and soon after again. The drunkard must lie in at this In air, if ever, and lie was resolved not to lose his errand. Finally he lifted the latch. There was no lock, and the door slowly opened. Before him, crouched over the fireplace, he saw Tim Burke, the " beast." ^ Wild and dangerous-enough the crea- ture looked, in his filth and rags, and with his glaring eves. " Who be f/ou )" That was his first greeting to his visitor. "I am a minister." '' Minister ! What d* you want ?" "Leame to see you." •'•Well, look at me, then," and the man rose to his feet and came forward. "Aiut I a beauty, eh?" stepping nearer and nearer. The minister eipected an attack, and was prepared for it. "Have you looked enough?" said the drunkard, appn^achiug so close that his visitor caught his foul breath. "Now I'll tell ve what I'm goin' toilo. I'm goin' to kick t/c down ntair* !" " Hold on, hold on ! Not now!" said the minister. 1* If you kick me down stairs, I'll have to come all the way up again. I've got a call to make <9h t he next floor. Wait till I come back; atid then if you conclude to kick the minis- ter who wouted to make you a friendly visit, why, I shall l>e at your service." " Well, yon fire a cool one," muttered the drunkard ; and he went and sat down again. After making his call, the minister re- turned, and presented" himself according to promise; but he found the man not at nil disposed to kick him now. He had evidently been thinking. " Hit down," said he ; and tho minis- ter sat down and talk, d with him like a tender brother ; and when he spoke to him of his wife and children the tears began to roll down the poor drunkard's cheeks. "Oh, I'm a God-forsaken wretch, beyond mercy!" he groaned. But the minister pointed him to Christ and knelt ami prayed that the fallen soul might have strength and grace to rise again. The gi»od man followed up his prayer' with persistent kindness, ami faithfully stood by Tim Burke till he saw him re- united to his family, atid established in honest employment, a sober, right- minded, church-going man. Ever afterwards, when inclined to be afraid of a repulsive duty, it was enough for tin? minister to rememlier that day when he "rescued tile i*-rishing."

This work of the Mexican d.«p* is so common and so faithfully performed that it is lookon* upon as a matter of courso, and nothing more than -h.mid be expected from a well tram..! dog. T|jis being the oas«% it would uppear that the d.>g worthy of a pension in that Territory must have performed .some very marvelous feat in- deed, and somethiifgout of the common line of canine aehit vetnent. And hi did.

It eh a ne. ,1 that the dog m question, oa Tetuming of an : evening with hi* sheep to the fold, j discovered that hi - master was not stirring about, but re- mained inside the shanty and kept very quiet The next evening it was the same. The dog, when he penned up the sheep, repaired to the shanty, smelled through a crack in the door his master's presence, but the man was stilE quiet and did not Itrenthe. The dog scratched, harked, and even bowled, but no response came from within, The door remained chmed; no smoke came from the chimney ito greet the early morn. But the dog, true to his ap- pointed duty, went joUt with the sheep on the third* day, ahd cared-for them while they cropped ! ]t)ie heritage ton the hillsides. But he was getting ihtngry, and that night when he drove the flock into their pen, the last one to attempt to go in liecamo the victim to his appetite. This method of providing for his own wants la-came a {Mifiion of the faithful dog's daily duty. Every evening, the last sheep to try to enter the f«dd was seized by him and served for supper aud for breakfast and dinner the follow- ing day. As stated )>eforc, the ranch to which the dog lielou|fed wits in a solitary part vf the Territory, and out Of the track of travel and social intercourse or visitation. For two years froin the time of the master's death—as ascertained by data left by the latter—thefai'hfll dog tended the flock committed |o his*charge] and had fresh mutton forjbttpper every night. The flock was not kleeimated by tlii- steady drain iqam its resource*. On the contrary, it increased in numbera, ami when, at the end af jjwo years fr«»m the time of the death of we proprietor the ranch was visited ant! tin- remains of the poor fellow found, the dog was still at his post of duty, j. ulon-'h guarding hi* flock, and driving tn.-m to the beat pa* hires uwr^' day, and |h> the fold at night, before which lie slept, to keep the wild sheep eaters of the plum at a civil dis- tance. Such fidelity kxcited admiration wherever the story was told, aud the Arcadian legislators «| the Territory, in a tit of generosity ami enthusiasm, at their session two yeii|s ago (they have biennial sessions in that happy country), granted a pension f^life to that dog, to lie paid from the State Treasury, as a reward for his fidelity] and no doubt a- an encouragement tojtll other sle-pln rd dog* in that Territory to be g ssl th-gs aud faithful.

It feeds on leaves, fTiwers, roots, buds, seeda. evmi the wood of plants; indeed, it in nearly omniverous. The worm is asserted to march m regu- lar and exact order; it lives in society and moves in prooea*j|ofl either in single file or two, three and four ahreaat, the line being so perfect iii the columns that t h" h< a i of one is neverlbeyond the head of another in the row.] It follow* the leader, stoppiug when the leatler stops, making journeys from plant to plant, or from tree tu tree in quent of f «»1. and returning to it* neat ip the *ame order t Tlie worms form ranks, march and halt with the precision of Soldier*.

And thus father and parted Dur­ing the fonr years of hi* studiiw An-dm - hit but rarely saw his father. The journey to Poltava was a long one. The net of railroads which now connects the South of Russia With the capital did not exist!even fci the wildest dreams of a logroll subject of the Cmt. Traveling was slow and expensive, and General Havelieffs fortune leas than modett. When at length at the end of his studies, which he atwomplisbed brilliantly, the young artillery officer, Andrei Ivanovib'h Havelieff, came to ptwt the lung vacation with his father in the small country house of Poltava, the latter was <|eeplv struck with the change iu Ihe appear­ance and the temper of his son. Instead of a merry, somewhat silent but healthy and blooming boy, there sprang but of the pert fcladntwa (mail cart) the Gen­eral had awaited with such throbbing im­patience, an earnest, pale man vrith a nervously expressive d4ply-mVrked face, with a tterv, piercing ana1 unflinch­ing gaze—one of those young faces only to he found among the Kussian genera­tion of today—n face telling a tale of deep thought, of propature suffering, and of a great, tormenting love. Anil the boy's temper was changed too.

Of his former awe, mingled will an impulsive tenderness towards his father, no trace was to be found. He met the latter respectfully, but witn a certain mien of independence and ot\ manly dig­nity which struck the old general with utter amazement, though it pleaaed him on the other hand to find in his sou something akin to his own iron nature. They met no more like father and ion, but like two soldier friends, ope yotti gcr than the other, but both hardened i i the great battle of life. It was, howjever, precisely this resemblance in| both their natures which brought thejm further apart than ever. Both were hot slow in detecting that they had no interest, no idea, no aim in life in ouiin.ni with each other. While the sou was scarcely able to answer correctly alibis father's qwniea abtjut the whereabouta of this or that general, the neweat patterns of uniforms. or the most recent events in the hte of the imperial family, the father felt but little interested and showed stjill lesaun-derstatnling for the olBmr's erudite ex-platiations of the newest improveioent tn artillery or the projeoted reforms in the military administration. Besides, the son had otherstudies whichengroaaed l o i n , . t i . . . r li. ii.L. , uwt *rt.M»t*m«Ji o u <irtU ley, which he read without ever showing them tot his father, Once tlie latter, coniingnnexptpctedl.vinto Iii-* sou's room, M»w t h e t i t l e s o f t w o o f tllftK) lsH.d(i% "The Life and Writings of Ferdinand rs»<*ehV," and "Commentarini on John Stewart Mill's Political Ecouomy,' Both names were naturally ujiknown to him, and the name of Tchernjvthevsky, the celebrated liussian tkHjiapt, l>eing not printed on the last namedilsiok, the brave old General retained uolothcrim-pres»tou from that incident titan that Lis sun, though a capital soldier, was some­what of a bookworm.

He paaacd, rapidly one glade of the military career after the otuer, wan iu ,1870 promoted captain, the fiiij>-ka jntss affair, during which the ycung military officer reuderetl signaj serviee*, bringing him th* dignity of colonel and the grand eri>»» of the St. (leorgo Onlr.

He be­came, editor of one of the best military reviews of St. Petersburg, and his home wits the gathering place of the best tnd ablest representatives of civil as wel as military mtelligent circles.

Thus years went on. The great Jihii-i»t movement broke out, holding Rus­sian society in a constant state of tgita-ti< >n and terror. The htorm even retched the old General its his solitary^ rttreat. HisexiMiperation against the "niisereants and mardererH" knew no bonijuls He even went so for as to write a lettc, ad-»lrcHi*ed personally to the Czarl ptoffer-ing his services for the "good am holy cause." ,4Ie never received any answer.

A minister newly settled in Glasgow, Scotland, determined to visit every per­son iu his parish. He began bis rounds, and smvei-il.-d in finishing the entire list—with a single exception.

Up four flights of stairs, in a poor tenement house, lived, or hoveled, an in­temperate map who was so repulsive ami savage that he dared hot meet him. The minister's friends had warned him not to call there for fear of personal harm. The wretch had driven his family away. Nobody could live with him, and he was best let alone. He was a "beast" This was confirmed by the minister's own im­pressions the few timeahe had seen the drunkard, and he shunned him.

Still the good man could not help feeling ashamed of his fears; and the shame grew upon him the more he thought of the matter.*

At last , one splendid morning, rising, after a perfect night's rest, full of. vigor and spiritual courage, he saidtohimaclf, *• Jiow is my time to go to Pij»cr's Alley and see Tim Burke. I'm just in the mood."

He went straight to the place, climbed through the dirty entries, and knocked at the man's door. He listened, and then knocked again—and soon after again. The drunkard must lie in at this In air, if ever, and lie was resolved not to lose his errand.

Finally he lifted the latch. There was no lock, and the door slowly opened. Before him, crouched over the fireplace, he saw Tim Burke, the " beast." ^

Wild and dangerous-enough the crea­ture looked, in his filth and rags, and with his glaring eves.

" Who be f/ou ) " That was his first greeting to his visitor.

" I am a minister." '' Minister ! What d* you want ?" "Leame to see you." •'•Well, look at me, then," and the

man rose to his feet and came forward. "Aiut I a beauty, eh?" stepping nearer

and nearer. The minister eipected an attack, and was prepared for it.

"Have you looked enough?" said the drunkard, appn^achiug so close that his visitor caught his foul breath. "Now I'll tell ve what I'm goin' to i lo . I'm goin' to kick t/c down ntair* !"

" Hold on, hold on ! Not now!" said the minister. 1* If you kick me down stairs, I'll have to come all the way up again. I've got a call to make <9h t he next floor. Wait till I come back; atid then if you conclude to kick the minis­ter who wouted to make you a friendly visit, why, I shall l>e at your service."

" Well, yon fire a cool one," muttered the drunkard ; and he went and sat down again.

After making his call, the minister re­turned, and presented" himself according to promise; but he found the man not at nil disposed to kick him now. He had evidently been thinking.

" Hit down," said he ; and tho minis­ter sat down and talk, d with him like a tender brother ; and when he spoke to him of his wife and children the tears began to roll down the poor drunkard's cheeks. "Oh, I'm a God-forsaken wretch, beyond mercy!" he groaned. But the minister pointed him to Christ and knelt ami prayed that the fallen soul might have strength and grace to rise again.

The gi»od man followed up his prayer' with persistent kindness, ami faithfully stood by Tim Burke till he saw him re­united to his family, atid established in honest employment, a sober, right-minded, church-going man.

Ever afterwards, when inclined to be afraid of a repulsive duty, it was enough for tin? minister to rememlier that day when he "rescued tile i*-rishing."

In (he* T e w t o r | *>f New Mexico t i e Legislature, by Joint nation, recently pensioned a dog for noble aefvif**«i In that country there ate many sheep farms, and shepherd dogs are so well trained hi oaring for the flocks (if their ma-1. r-that It is their daily practice to take < -ut the flocks iu the ittorning to pasture, guard them all day, ami at night return them to the fold lit e.»rral. This work of the Mexican d.«p* is so common and so faithfully performed that it is lookon* upon as a matter of courso, and nothing more than -h.mid be expected from a well tram..! dog. T|jis being the oas«% it would uppear that the d.>g worthy of a pension in that Territory must have performed .some very marvelous feat in­deed, and somethiifgout of the common line of canine aehit vetnent. And h i did. He did not save his moRreaa'a lite from th« murderous fury f«* the savage, nor her child from being Itrained agiunsf a door post or b.-iug choked by a huge black snake, for his master was uo* mar ried, and had no wife or ladie, but led a solitary life in his solitary ranch iu a very solitary part of New Mestao.

It eh a ne. ,1 that the dog m question, oa Tetuming of an : evening with hi* sheep to the fold, j discovered that hi -master was not stirring about, but re­mained inside the shanty and kept very quiet The next evening it was the same. The dog, when he penned up the sheep, repaired to the shanty, smelled through a crack in the door his master's presence, but the man was stilE quiet and did not Itrenthe. • The dog scratched, harked, and even bowled, but no response came from within, The door remained chmed; no smoke came from the chimney ito greet the early morn. But the dog, true to his ap­pointed duty, went joUt with the sheep on the third* day, ahd cared-for them while they cropped !]t)ie heritage ton the hillsides. But he was getting ihtngry, and that night when he drove the flock into their pen, the last one to attempt to go in liecamo the victim to his appetite. This method of providing for his own wants la-came a {Mifiion of the faithful dog's daily duty. Every evening, the last sheep to try to enter the f«dd was seized by him and served for supper aud for breakfast and dinner the follow­ing day. As stated )>eforc, the ranch to which the dog lielou|fed wits in a solitary part vf the Territory, and out Of the track of travel and social intercourse or visitation.

For two years froin the time of the master's death—as ascertained by data left by the latter—thefai'hfll dog tended the flock committed | o his*charge] and had fresh mutton forjbttpper every night. The flock was not kleeimated by tlii-steady drain iqam its resource*. On the contrary, it increased in numbera, ami when, at the end af jjwo years fr«»m the time of the death of w e proprietor the ranch was visited ant! tin- remains of the poor fellow found, the dog was still at his post of duty, j. ulon-'h guarding hi* flock, and driving tn.-m to the beat pa* hires uwr^' day, and |h> the fold at night, before which lie slept, to keep the wild sheep eaters of the plum • at a civil dis­tance. Such fidelity kxcited admiration wherever the story was told, aud the Arcadian legislators « | the Territory, in a tit of generosity ami enthusiasm, at their session two yeii|s ago (they have biennial sessions in that happy country), granted a pension f ^ l i f e to that dog, to lie paid from the State Treasury, as a reward for his fidelity] and no doubt a-an encouragement tojtll other sle-pln rd dog* in that Territory to be g ssl th-gs aud faithful.

Too Wonderful a Jump.

The idea of a railway train leaping a river like* u fox-hunter's horse, or "shoot­ing*' a chasm like a chamois, is no im­pertinence in certain of Bev. Edward Everett Hale's amusing extravaganzas; but Major Neely, civil engineer for the Cincinnati Central Railroad contractors, credits the same fancy to the brain tif an ignorant Tennessee "4or» ••maka*."

The major was engaged {iu tunneling a mountain right on the bank of theCum-t>. iluid River, said river now being spanned at that point by a fine bridge, though then there wms no sign of the structure.

One morning a cracker rowed across the river, aud upon approaching the major the following colloquy ensued:

"Mornin'." "Good morning." "You seem to be! scat term' dirt and

gravel around here pretty peert." " Well, yes. We a^e getting through

the liUl quite lively."j " Who's paybj' for (ill this fuss?" "The city of Cincinnati" " Wall, it must cost a heap ov money.

What's it fer anyhow!?" Tbe major thought he would enlighten

the native, so he toh) him that he was engaged in building la tunrjel, and he further explained that it was cheaper to bore a hole through j the mountain for the cars to run through than to level it or make a "cut" down the grade, The. native took it all in, ojnd then queried.:

" S o the steam kyarjs in going to oome right through thi* tuniue.1 away north?"

"Yea, that's just i{," responded the major.

"Well, major, that's askin' too much for a man to believe," ijeblied the cracker. " I don't swallow it m- how you can fix it, that every time that 'ere iron hoas of yourn jumps across the river, he's goin' to strike this little hole right squar and fair. No, sir, I can't 4wallow it."

How the Array l^urm Moves.

Tbe army worm wfiM has devastated portions of tne <• >.mrv is so called be-cause it appear- in suclu large number*, and because, like otli^ra of its specie*, it moves in columns at id follows a leader. It is a caterpillar, t \,- larva of a moth, and noted for its voracity, a* it well may l>e, since it can eat, it is said, more than double It* own welglft: In twenty-four hours. Although les-t gluttonous" as a rule, it is mow destrtntave than the lo­cust, from its go at. r fecundity and wider distribution ovejr the vegetatde world. It feeds on leaves, fTiwers, roots, buds, seeda. evmi the wood of plants; indeed, it in nearly omniverous. The worm is asserted to march m regu­lar and exact order; i t lives in society and moves in prooea*j|ofl either in single file or two, three and four ahreaat, the line being so perfect iii the columns that t h" h< a i of one is neverlbeyond the head of another in the row.] It follow* the leader, stoppiug when the leatler stops, making journeys from plant to plant, or from tree tu tree in quent of f «»1. and returning to it* neat ip the *ame ordert Tlie worms form ranks, march and halt with the precision of Soldier*. When several nests are iii the Same neighbor­hood, the going forth ami coming back of the creeping battalions at the same hour, commonly toward nightfall, is very curious and int.-resting. Oaterpillars include more than LOMTvarietie*, there Isring 700 in New England aloncr They all have thirteen segment*; tlie firat con­sisting of jaw and mouth; the accond, third and fourth of the tliorax of the fu­ture ins. et. and tbe oth- r segment* of the abdomen. Their rapid growth ami extraordinary consumption are shown by tbe common silk worm, which, ac­cording to Vinoenzo Daj&dolo's treatise on silk, increase* during: the thirty days neccMsary to it* full growth from one to forty lines in length and from 1-1000 to ninety-five grains in weight. In that time, therefore, it mereasea i t ! weight 9,o00 times and eat* 30,000 times it weight of f sal. In the Northern Stat.-tie-re are about 1,000 kit.!- of butter­flies and moths. As each female lays from 200 to .".on egg-, these specie* would produce, on art average, from each single female 300,000 caterpillar* a year. ff one-half of these Were female*, the second generation would lie 4tyiO0,OO0 and the third fi,750,000,000. With sneh fertility, it is easy to see that the de­structive oower of caterpillar*, psrticu-larly of the army worm,, must be pro­digious.
