A GOOD MINISTER'S X.02TO
AGAINST TIKE.
PEATEB
Two Glen's Narrow Escape in '.the
Bayi tvlien Theft wan a Capital
Crime .11 Canada.
Dr. J. M. Clark, of Eric, Penn., told
a Philadelphia Times correspondent an
interesting and remarkable story, brought
out by the death of Richard Carrf a Can
adian octogenarian: "I had no idea
that Carr was living on this side of the
fake, or that he was living at all," said
Dr. Clark. "Not having heard anything
of him for thirty years I supposed him
long since dead. Ilis arrest, conviction,
sentence and escape are events closely
connected with ray family and my child
hood, my uncle, Rev. John Ryerson,
being the clergymen who attended Carr
to the scaffold and who prayed against
time for the purpose of cheating the
hangman. He succeeded, and this is
how it all happened: I was a child at
Vittoria, a Canadian village just across
the lake, about fifty-five years ago. Who
did Carr kill ? No one. . He was a quiet
and inoffensive young man, and so was
Smith, condemned to die with him. '.The
affair formed the theme for many atro
cious ballads by villainous village poets,
just as the execution of the three Thayers
in Buffalo did. I see by the papers that
nowadays a cold-blooded murderer fre
quently escapes the attention of her most
excellent majesty's hangman through
some fine point of law; but in the good
old days no poor wretch, whose suifer
ing family prompted him to steal sheep
or oxen, escaped. They were swung off
promptly if not artistically.
"One day, I remember well, the village
was thrown into great excitement by the
discovery of a crime for which the pen
alty was death. The whole village of
Vittoria was in an uproar. Some one had
stolen an ox. A diligent search resulted
in the discovery of the hide, and suspi
cion fell on Carr, who was known to be
poor, and in whose house the odor of
cooked meat still hung. The village dog
berry and shallow dignitaries, that were
next to deities in my eyes then, succeed
ed in extorting a confession of guilt
from Carr and another poor fellow named
Smith. The culprits were brought to
trial, and a jury of twelve fellow-men
found no difficulty in consigning both to
the scaffold, after the learned judge had
expatiated for hours upon the enormity
of the crime against God and man.
"Sentence of death was passed upon
Carr and Smith and they would probably
have been executed the next day, but I
suppose tne sheriff thought it would be
regarded us ungentlemanly and unfriend
ly if he did not arrange the time so that
bis distant constituency could get in to
witness the sight. Travel was slow in
those days of no railroads. Among those
who were horrified and shocked at the
approaching execution were my uncle,
the spiritual adviser of the poor fellows,
and Dr. John Rolf, whose memory still
clings to the village. The Rev. Jonn
Ryerson was brother to Dr. Egerton Ry
erson, . D. D., superintendent of educa
tion in Ontario, who died two vears ago,
? the houses of parliament adjourning to
attend the funeral.
"Dr. Rolf was more excited than any
other of bmitli and Carr s sympathizers.
and he determined to ride to Toronto
and intercede with the governor, who, I
think, was Sir John Colborn. Before de-
jfarting on his hazardous errand of mercy,
Dr. Rolf was closeted with my uncle,
Rev. John Ryerson. The latter subse-
auently told me that he had agreed to
clay the hanging all he could by making
the closing prayer as long as his strength
and power of utterance would permit,
provided that Rolf had not returned.
Good Dr. Rolf calculated upon getting
. back a few hours before the time set for
the execution. He set out on the swiftest
horse to be had in the village, but the
people had little" faith in his ability to
make the journey in time and less faith
in the governor's inclination to interfere.
' The days Hew on and the people flocked
in from the surrounding country. Uncle
John did all he could to comfort the
doomed men and led them to a realiza
tion of a greater mercy than man's, but
they refused to be comforted. The fatal
inorn came, but without any tidings of
Dr. Rolf. The hour arrived and the
men were led out to die. Private hang
ing had not come into fashion then, it
was considered good and wholesome for
the common people to witness the awful
and just punishment of the horse, sheep
or cattle stealer. The gallows was erected,
out in the open and in full view of all.
It was none of your patent, latest style
instrument of death. No sand-bag or
scientific tests were made to assure the
quickest death possible. It was a rude
structure, upon which the village car
penter may not have expended more than
two hours' labor.
"Smith and "Carr were placed in po
sition, and when the hangman's little
preliminaries were over the sheriff was
informed that all was ready for the par
" son's final blessing or prayer. Then Rev.
Ryerson got down on his knees and be
gan the longest and most remarkable
prayer on record. His voice was low
purposely, for he wished to husband his
,vocal strength. He prayed for about
twenty minutes without creating remark,
for long prayers were not so distasteful
then as now. But when he entered up-
on the second half hour great restlessness
was manifested. The sun poured down
upon the uncovered heads and many did
not hesitate to say aloud that they were
getting too much of a good thing. The
sheriff was impatient aud the hangman
looked weary. The' proceedings made
him tired. Even the poor wretches wait
ing death showed signs of annoyance,
for uncle had not told them of his com
pact with Dr. Rolf. The murmurs rose
higher arid liigher, but uncle prayed on
without ceasing. An hour passed and
he was. still on his knees. There was
now no relevancy in his appeal. He
merely uttered words and disconnected
phrases to consume time. The muscles
of his throat contracted, his tongue wag
dry and clove to his mouth and his voice
was husky, but he prayed on, 'the words
falling without meaning upon his hearers.
"He told me later that he did not know
what he was saying, and that the only
real prayer uttered in all that time -was a
silent one and composed of four words :
'God hasten Rolf's footsteps.' When
ever I see the play of 'Damon and
Pythias,' I am reminded of that fearful
scene," continued Dr. Clark. "At the
end of an hour there was quite an up
roar, and the discontent had. almost be
come a riot, when a voice cried: 'Here
comes Dr. Rolf 1' My unele did not hear
or heed the new tumult that now arose,
but prayed on, becoming Weaker each
minute. Soon the horseman approached
near enough to be recognized, and the
doctor dashed up to the very foot of the
scaffold, scattering people right and left.
He was too weak to speak or move, but
a man in the crowd snatched a docu
ment from his hand and mounting on
the back of the horse, shouted: 'Re
prieve ! Reprieve !' It was so, and that
13 how Carr and Smith were saved."
The Knrile Islanders.
The Kurile islands, forming an almost
unknown archipelago, drop like a chain
of small links from Katnschatka down to
the Japanese island of Yesse, so closing
in the Okahotsk sea from the Northern
Pacific. They have recently been ceded
by the czar to the mikado in exchange
for the large island of Saghalin. The
islanders arc a small race, hardy, honest
and peaceable. By the Aleuts they are
called the "hairy men," but whether this
is because they dress entirely in skins or
because they are sparingly provided with
that arctic rarity, a beard, is not known.
Anything more cheerless and unlovely
than the lives of the Kurilcans can
scarcely be imagined. Living on what
0f !
is not much more than a succession
huge steppingstones from Kamschatka to
Japan, they arc exposed to the full fury
and rigor of the winters of the far North.
The spring is comparatively pleasant, but
with the summer comes on such fogs that
an impenetrable wall seems to be raised
between the islands and the rest of the
world. The fogs clear off, there is a
brief glimpse of a low sun, and then the
bleak winter comes Jdown blackly again.
Not a thing grows on the island except
moss, the whole group being destitute
of tree, or shrub, or blade of grass. For
food the natives depend upon whatever
they may catch in their fishing and hunt
ing expeditions, with the rare addition
of a little bear's meat whenever bruin is
adventurous enough to swim off from
the mainland. Just as the islands are
destitute of foliage, so they aia of ani
mals, the only creature on them, beside
the natives, being a breed of small, swift
foxes.
The habits of the Kurileans are in
keeping with the surroundings. Hardy
and adventurous, having no such word
as home in their meagre language and no
appreciation of such an institution, they
roam in their canoes from island to island,
killing whatever breathes, putting
up . rude , huts when .,. they are
forced into winter quarters, but
generally despising anything like
shelter and living in their boats. So lit
tle are they used to the art of construc
tion that, unlike their fellow-natives,
they do not build skin canoes, but make
up what are called baidara, a class of
craft that is as primitive as the rest of
their habits. Wrecks are not infrequent,
and the islanders' wandering alonjr the
shore pick up whatever driftwood maybe !
scattered about, the women being gener
ally engaged in this harvest of flotsam
and jetsam. The pieces are rudely tied
together with thongs in the shape of a
long box and calked with moss. The
roughness of the elements and the rough
ness of the work are not particularly con
cluciye to seaworthiness, and they gener
ally spring a heavy leak an hour after
they are launched. To keep them afloat
the Kurileans always put a load of moss
and a couple of women on board, the
moss being to stop up whatever cracks
may open, and the women being em
ployed in this work with a bunch of moss
and a piece of stick, daubing any partic
ular obstinate crevice with a lump of seal
fat. Nomadic as they arc, the Kurileans
have still some sort of a capital, and
make infrequent and erratic visits to the
village of Shumshu, which, after all, is
little more than a collection of huts, now
rapidly falling into decay and nearly de
serted. Chimneys.
In the year 1200, chimneys were
scarcely known in England. One only
was allowed in a religious house, one in
a manor house , and one in the great hall
of a castle or lord's house ; but, in other
houses, the smoke found its way out as
it could. The writers of the fourteenth
century seem to have considered them as
the newest invention of luxury. In
Henry VIII's reign, the university tf Ox
ford had no lire allowed ; for It is men
tioned that, after the students had
supped, having no fire in winter, they
were obliged to take a good run for half
an hour to get heat in their feet before
they retired for the night. Holinshed,
in the reign of Elizabeth, describes the
rudeness of the preceding generation in
the arts of life. "There were." says he,
"very few chimneys; even in the capital
towns, the fire was laid to tMe wall, and
the smoke issued out at the door,
roof or window. Tho houses were
wattled and plastered over with clay,
and all the furniture and utensils were
wood." In 16SQ, a tax of two shillings
was laid on chimneys.
The liability of the people of the Uni
ted States for the public debt is $28.40
per capita ; - at the end of the war
it was $78.23 ; the interest liability
is ninety-live cents as against $4,29 in
1865.

poem to the New YorK Observer, remarks:
'I have never seen it in print, but obtained
it through a manuscript copy of a friend of

I can vouch for its authenticity."
Ob, where can che soul find relief from its
woes,
A refuge of safety, a home of repose?
Can earth's highest summit or deepest hid
vale
Give a refuge no sorrow or sin can assail?
No, no, there's no home!
There's no home on earth, the soul has no
home.
Can it leave tha low earth, and soar to the
sky.
And seek for a home in the jnansions on high
In the bright realms of bliss a home shall be
- given,
And tha soul find a rest in its Home of the
Heaven.
Yes, yes, there's a home!
There's a home in high heaven, the soul has a
home.
Oh. holy and happy its home shall be there,
Free forever from sorrow, from sin and from
care,
And the loud hallelujahs of angels shall rise
To welcome the soul to its home of the skies.
Home, home, home of the soul!
The bosom of God is the home of the soul!

. "My little girl was afflicted with scrofula. So virulent
was the disease that her neck had been lanced ten times.
At the time she began to take Hood's Sarsaparilla there
was a very large bunch on her faoe. This we expected
to open with a lancet ; but to ocr surprise the bunch be
