I am afraid I never will like run­ ning out at nix fa the morning. It's all right when I am dressed.

This is ono of my early mornings, and as I presented myself at the ticket office the agent, or night telegraph operator, like myself, was scarcely awake, and we looked sympathetically at each other.

There aro no Bulgarian* left , to give their aide of tiis story, AH the Bulgarian men teemed to be killed at eight, a* if by arrangement. The women and ehildren were spared M a Ronoral thing, but the hideous jdllage and firing and shrieks and shouts continued si] night, and great districts of the city were burning, as if all tho other horror* were not enough. At daylight Suleiman Pasha ordered all Moslems and Jews, whom the Turke pro­ tected as if they were their own people, to leave the place, since hie contemplfltod operations did not inofads any such thing as Uio defence of Eski-Saghra. So the Turks loaded up tiiefr women and children on waggons, and went to the nearest rail­ way station, followed by whet seemed an ondtoss train of women and children, who had lost all. These canid MO in Tarkish wagons good* stolen from their homes, but they might not dare ask for them. Eski- Saghra was left to the flames, and in it* street* and ia the surrbnnding villages the raltlo ol rifles was constant. tlire® or four days there seemed to bo asjitirposa to kill every Bulgarian male over ten years of age. The fair city «et on a hill used to look out over a plain which teemed with busy peraantry in tbe fertile fields. Now, from tho scarred and blistered bill, yon look over the plain, and ita forty villages are bl acker, ed ash-heaps, foal from the hand, of death. No one will ever kaow the exact loss Of life at E*ki Saghm. Seven thousand women and children of ita Chris­ tian population are dependant on charity in Adrianople to-day. These people be- liove all of their male relative* to have been killed. Tbe city of Eski-SagLra fa entirely wiped out of existence. HttolBUBC.

What a pity Mr. Mackenzie didn't act up to this standard when ho want hob-nobbing among tho free burghers of Dandos. That pleasant little trip to show^be frien-ls of bis youth a real live Premier, cost tho country over 82,000.

Ton tiers of seats in front of the stand were occupied by the family and relatives of tbe deeeased. There wore not less than twelve thousand persons in the building. All bi* wives and children, with few exception*, were present, and many ecores of grandchildren and relative* more distant. The demonstration* of grief wore few, though all seemed sad. From nine o'clock the organ began playing tho “ Dead March in Sani,*’ ” Mandeis- sahn's FanorM March,” and a march com­posed for tho occMton by a Mormon. George O'Connor was Mariet of Ceremon- i«R, and at noon announced the hymn, “ Hark from Afar," sung by a Tabernacle choir of 220 voices. Tlio opening prayer was delivered by Apostle Rioharas. A hymn WM followed by brief addreMca by David H. Wells, Apostles Woodruff, Trow, Cannon and Taylor. The speakers con­fined themselves to laudations of Brigham Yiung, and exhortation* to tho Saints to remember and obey hi* counsels, to pro­ ceed with tbs erection of temples, tbe foun- dalion* for four of which hare b«en laid.

Tho only objection we see to the Clawson is, that its straw is sometimes weak for the variety that carries such a heavy head ; and that its chaff is loose, so that it must be cut as soon as it is re*<ly, in order to avoid shelling. It would be well for farmers who sow that variety this year, to put a liberal allowance of salt in the farm-yard manure; or to sow broadcast say 200 pounds of salt to the acre, unless the land has lately had salt applied, in whiah case the quantity might be reduced. The effect of the salting will be to brighten and stiffen the straw, as well as to increase the yield of tho grain. The Clawson wheat has fully borne out the good opinion which we expressed of it more than two years ago. Those farmers who took the hint from us at that time, and invest­ ed in the now variety, have tines made a good thing of it Tho 8Overehoff wheat is five or six days later than the Oawiox It 1* yielding spier • didly this year, and it has done ever since it was brought to Canada.

Pressing her tightly to her heart, Mrs. Lanranee turned to Mr. Palma, and said sternly: ‘ Is there indeed no such thing M honor left among caeu ? You who knew so well my loneliness and affliction, you sir, to whom I trusted my little lamb, have tried to rob tno of the only treasure I thought I possessed, the only comfort left to gladden iny sunless life!

She wae harrying away, but he caught her dress. * My dear, are you troubled with ophthalmia, that you can not see a man three yards distant, who measures six feet two inches ? Certainly I excuse yon. A man who is kepi nwake all night by one set of love ditties, dragged ont of his bed before sunrise, and after taking exercise and a bath that render him as hungry as a Modoc ent off from Uis lava-bods, is expect­ ed and forced to bold his famished frame in peace, while a pair of human lovers ex­haust the vocabulary of cooing, that man can palieatlv excuse much. Sit down my dear girl.

Tears ware streaming down the mother's cheeks, and pressing her lips to the white mourntul fuco of her daughter, sho beck­ oned Mr.’ Palma to her side. For a moment she hesitated, held up the fair fin­gers and kissnd them, then as if dfatnisting herself, quickly laid the tittle band in bis. ‘ Tako my darling ; and reinember she is tbo most precious gift a miserable mother ever yielded np.'

CHAPTER XXXVII. N consenting tn bestow Regina's hand on Mr. Palma, Mr*. Laurence bad slipnlnted that the marriage should b« de­ferred for one year, alleging that her daughter was yet very young, and having been so long separated she wished bar to remain with bar, at least for some months, Mr. Palma reluctantly asaentad to condi­ tions which compelled him to return to America without Reginn, aad in Novem­ber Mrs. Laurence removed to Milan, where she desired that her child's fine voice and musical talent should be trained nnd developed by the most superior in­ struction.Swiftly the twelve months sped away, and in revisiting the Mediterranean shorea, linked by so many painful reminiscences with tbo period of her former sojonru, Mrs. Laurence, despite the efforts of her fiulbful and f»n 1 campanion. seemed to sink into a confirmed melancholy. By tacit agreement no reference was over made to her part life, bat a shadow, chill and uulifling, brooded over her, and the sleypleasueM that uo opiate could conquer, a aioeplMsnrss born of heart-ache which no spell could narcotize, robbed her cheek of its bloom, and left weary liues on her patient, hopeless face.Mr. Chesley had returned with Mr. Palma to the United Slates, and late ia the following autumn Mrs. Laaraace Regina sailed for Naw York.

On either aide stood deodar cedars, end be- hind one of these she sat dawn on a rustic She had not waited long when footatem approached, and Mr, Palma'» tall, hand­ some figure passed through the gatei ac­companied by one who followed slowly. Tbo lawyer paw*d his arm around her, drew her to hi* aids, and whispered: ‘ I bring you glad tidiags.

Becaxso sho see# in wy face the reflsx of yours, it has of fate grown doubly dear to her ; and wometimes at night, when she believes mo asinop, she touches me softly, and whispers, ‘ my Cuthbert's baby.’ But why have you so long allowed us to believe you wore lost on that vessel ?' Briefly Mr. Laurauce outlined the facta of his escape upon a raft which was hastily constructed by several of ihe crow when the boat* wore boyonfl their reach.- Upon this be had placed Mnnd, and on the morn­ ing after the wreck of tbo vessel, they suc­ ceeded io getting into one of the boat# which was floating bottom upward, and providentially drifted quite near the raft. For several days they were tossed helplessly from wav* to wave, exposed to heavy rains, and on the third evening poor little Maud, who had been unconscious for some hours, died in her father's nrms. At mid­ night, when the moon shone full and bright, lie bad wrapped the little form in his eoat and consigned her to a final resting place beneath the blue billows, where her mother had already gone down amid the fury of the gale. Ho knew from the color and lettering of the boat that it was tbo same in which he bad placed his terrified wife, and when it floated to their raft ha could not doubt her melancholy fate. A few hours after Maid’s burial a Danish brig bound for Valparaiso discovered the boat# and its signals of distress, and tak- iag on board the fonr rarvlvor*, sailed away on ite destined track. Mr. Laurence had mode bis way to Rio Jaaxire, and sub­ sequently to Havana, but learning from tho published accounts that his wife had indeed perished, and that ho also was num­ bered among the lost, he determined not to reveal tho faet of bis existence to anv ouo.
