The time had almost elapsed, and noth

the scene, when, quite unexpectedly, sonic
thing happened which filled me with th.
deepest horror, and which purines lne ti
shudder even now as I recall it.
It has partly to do with my rival. l-lorncl

had almost forgot-ten.
He had received the news of our engage:

manner, and his subsequent behavior hmv
not led us to regurd him as being mon

to see how deep and trugic the effect upon
him revilly was.
The revolution came in this wine:
it wanted but two days to our wedding.
and I had (masion to go on a little busi

my home. Having accomplished my or-
ruml, and finding that I hm! souls vonsid

to walk back. So, striking out, I soon left
the town behind me.
It was a fine moonlight, night, and as it

take it short cut across the country, which
i reckoned would saved quarter of an hour
at the least. The mud would be very lone

but. that troubled me little. for my thoughts
were company enough thut night.
I hnd gone somewhere nbnut two miles
when the moon suddenly cloudod over and
I was left in colmmrutive darkness.
Asl knew the way. however, I thohuh!
nothing of it, but. trudged cheerfully along,
thinklugonly of Add and our uppnmvhinp
union. Suddenly, and without a ummont‘s
warning, the ground gave wuy from under
my feet, and I felt myself falling lieudlonu
down, down into the depths of the earth

lcorncdofterwnrd that it was about BI) feet

reunited the bottom, and without doubt
that would have been my fate but! not the
bottom of the hole been filled with water
too considerable depth. This broke my

my senses.
I struck out on coming to the surface.
and swam around to find something to
which i could hold on. After a consider-
able time spent in sutrrching, during which
the full horror of the situation began to
down upon me. I nt'last discovered a piece
of‘wnodwm-k fixed in the side of the pit.
This I ("IROI'ly grasped, and resting par-
tially on it with half my body in the we.

I know at once the place into which I
had fallen. and as the knowledge flushed
across my mind cursed myself for huvlup

was an‘ old, disused shaft which had been
there for generations. Not umny people
were aware of its existence, for it Wolf in a
wild and solitary spot mmrcely ever visited
by any one. I, however, had seen it sev-
end times, in my moorland "wanderings,
and had always regarded it as a dangerous
place. it was partially fenced round. but
I must have wondered in through one of
the gaps ‘ .
There was no footpath anywhere near
it, so I must in the darkness have lost my
way. However, here 1 was, and the quote

the thought was torturing and drove me in
a fit of frenzy to shout again with all my
might. But it was all in vain, for no one

How the night passed I cannot tell,

a moment I was unable to utter a sound.
At last I murmured in a faint voice:
“In‘heaven’s name, get me out!

“Can you hold on another minute?” the

“Send the rope down. I’ll manage to

In another minute it was dangling be.

As I lay upon the ground—fur my legs
were useless to me——I looked at my deliver-

\Vasnrnovoy, Dec. 7. «The senate and
the house of representatives «inverted to»
day for the second session of the Fifty
fourth congress. After the portal opening
formalities both bronchus Ibstened with
marked attention and interest t5 the math
ing of President Cievcbiud'u anminl more
sage, whiohis a document of cite un-
usual length, treating compre ensiwiy
and in detail the various question's involved
in our foreign relations and domestic
afiuirs. ‘ ‘ '
The first week of the session is not ex.
pooled to be prmluctlvo of immrtnnt ra-
vults in a legislative way. ’i‘hemnre many
senators who think that but little or notlv
lug should be done lxvyond the [manage of
the. uppropriution bills at this session, null
as these Incusuros necessarily originate in
the house them will he a disxuwitlou to
postpone the season of activity until some
of these bills can be revolved from the
other end of the capitol. The probabilities
are that the daily sessions at the begin-
ning will be comparatively brief and that
the senate will content itself with four
days Work each week.
‘ Wide Range of Material.
The calendar presents a wide range of
material for musldcrution in case the sen.
nto shows a disposition to busy itself. In
this is included the immigration bill,
which is the “unfinished business,” the
I’nciiic railroad refunding bill, the sluts?
hood bills and the Iliuglcy tariff and bond
bills, us well as the Cube!) and Iluwuilun
question. Senators Lodge und Chandler
have announced their determination to
press the immigration bill to a vote as
speedily us they run. It will be the first
regular business to be token up and call—
not indispliumd except by vote or unani
iuous consent. They hope to got the bill
through before the holidays. It is also
possible that the president’s. message may
suggest subjects for speeches. and there
are those who predict thnttllc Cuban ques-
tion will receive vigorous attention from
the beginning of the session. ,
It is genorully agreed that the Republic-
uus will hold a caucus to determine upon
it line of policy, especially with reference
to the tariff, and until after the exchange
of views, which this conference will permit,
no stop is likely tn be taken which will
commit the [mrty to any msition on any
question of political siglliflcunoe.
Regular Appropriation Bills.
The opening \vcck promises to see the
house put its shoulder to the wheel of tin-
regular omiroprintion bills. Clmlrmnn
(‘unnon and tho cunnuittcc on upprnpriu'
lions were at work all last. xvi-ck, and if is
their earnest intention to pass two, und
possibly three, of the bill»: before Christ.-
luns lmliduys, The pension and legisla-
tive npproprlutirm bills are about ready
and work on um- 01‘ the other of those will
be begun in the house llvl'um the week
closes. The pension bill, although it our-
ries a larger nnmuut of mom-y than llll)’
of the other supply bills, is very brief, and
unless some political discussion is precipi-
tated is not likely to consume much time
in its (musidt'l‘utitm. Beyond these two
bills nothing, is in sight at present. it is
of course not unlikely that the committee
ollrules will provide something for the.
house to do in case the committee on up-
pmpriutlolls is not pn-purcd to go uluuui
will! either of those uppropriutlou bills.
The course of tlic lvglxlutinn. so for as tho
important measures on the calendar is
concerned, like the i’uciiltr ruilrnud fumi-
iug hill, the Nicaragua muui bill, etc.
will be determined entirely by the rules
t‘nmlnititiu‘.
