Ttl? Stars. Gao thoee bright atar* be like thia world Of Borrow, sin and strife? ' Were not all things for nee decreed, No voe ano y designed, By Him whose majesty and power Aro to no placo confined? Yon concavo vast of systems bright, Grand as the noonday ann, Waa not created to illume This world, lost wheo begun, ? But made unnumbered years ago By wisdom all sublime, . That would not fill with ain or blight A single starry clime. Those countless orbs must ever roll - Within yon azure dome; But ruin! ?arno by one rash act . To thia, our earthly home. Tho grandeur of thoae starry worlds No mortals may explore, And fanoy 'mid their tracklesstopace, But wonders to adore. ! [JVeie Orleans Sunday Hines. [From the Galaxy for August.] CUMMKKI.EY OAP. OOSTCIiUDEX). I telegraphed to Linderibury: "Where ia tho Limo Lake Mail?" Directly the answer came: "Comoon. All right." Tho same words over again. Not a word of that train ahead, lt was strange; bnt we were behind time yet. ."Go ahead 1" I called. "Make up lost time." It was twenty-seven minutes past 0. We had nineteen miles yet to Linden. It was five miles to Brentford, the next sta? tion West. At Brentford I telegraphed again : "Where is the Lime Lake Mail?" ? knew the Brentford operator, of course; his name was John Murray. He sont off the message, repeating the words aloud: "Where is the Lime Lake Mail?" Waiting the reply, I asked him: "Havo yoU had any word of the Mail this side of the Branch ?" "Not a word. No messages West of here, except to yon, since half-after 7." The return message clicked off the wires. You may be sure I watched Mur? ray's lips for the words. Again the very same: "Come on. AU right." Not a word more. I hod no time to wait. We were still a little behind. My duty was to make that np and obey my orders. "Give me the slip," I said. I had tho other two in my pocket. I remembered that, and was thankful for so much. They would clear mo, what? ever happened. But, none the less, I was fretted by the thought of that off time train somehow ahead in the dark. I signalled Morris to increase the speed. I stood by a lamp and took out the throe slips of telegraph paper. There was no mistake. I read eaoh one over carefully. The words were plain: "All right. Come on." You say I had; no cause for such anxi? ety as I describ?? that I 'was pretty close on time; the words of tho telegrams sim? ple, and snob as would nut?rally occur in such a ouse; that the same words should be repeated was no more strange than happens every day.- You thiuk. I exaggerate for effect? I say you know nothing about it. I say it iras strange that those words were three times repeat? ed. It was strange that they should come at all in answer to my message; they did not answer my question. Hal? lowell said Clunnerlane expected to be after him in half ru honr. By that we should have met him at Brentford sta? tion. I say I was horribly noxious; tea times moro than I've written down. One says, I was mad to increase the speed, fearing what I did. I tell you I did my duty. I was bound to keep on time and obey, my orders. They have no right to taunt me; it was bad* enough, without that. I say I did my duty. It was only three miles and a half to Hackerby. I was thankful to hear the whistle at the last cross-roads. I was in the office be? fore the train had stopped. "Marks," I cried, "do you know where's tho down nyul?" "No.": "Telegraph Lindon bury; quick! Say, .For God's sake, where is the Lake Mail?-' " I thought the answer would nevet como. I longed and feared to hear it. Here is the slip now, with those same terrible words: "All right. Come on." As Marks read thoso words, I broke out with a coree. "What's the row?" ho said. "Hold on. There's more." ? jumped at that "Goon. Quiokl" "AH right. Come on. Be on yow guard!" I rushed out. Morris was watching, I waved my arm. The train moved on It was scant fonr miles to Garrowsfield the last this side of Lindenbury. I weir forward and looked ont ahead. Wo wen running pretty fast; thirty-five miles t( the hour, I should say. We wero np t( oUr time at last. Wo were runuinf through the Clitheroo Hills, the rom winding up the valley of the Garrow; t< the left the river flowed dark and silent Now and then you caught a gleam frou the gloomy current; hero and there th? sound of its brawling over a stony bcd Yon saw the 1. jhts of a village, now am again, twinkling among tho loomitij hills across the Garrow. Hero wi crossct a roaring culvert; then, the river run ning to the right, ran out on the higl embankment at Mack's Ford, and s across by Half Mile Trestle Bridgo. I kept my eyes aboad; a horrible fea tormented me. Thatstrange, four time repeated telegram tortured me. Th words were constantly in my ears, heard them in the roar of thu rushin train-"Come on, come on, come on! And thoso other added words; whfi could they moan?" Why wero we to / on our guard? Where could that Lak train bo? Why had they not sent ID word? It was n terrible muddle ult< gother. In nine years' running on rai Linden. Tli?Llil>ttenbary telegrapher I bad known 'ior years. His o*$? waa Henry ?len?l?j^a tall, browigtajprded man, of tw^SJ-filae o* thirty.-"T^y I bad knowb ito^Dngj i dp; not mean that I was int?mate withliim, but (nat I .knew bim as one knows the men he meeta every day. Ho waa a superior man, every way, as wa railway naen go. We all owned to that in a tacit way, and most of us liked and respected bim much. He was the last man on the lino that any of us would mistrust. Tempo rate, punctual, somewhat taciturn, he was always at bis post and never made mistakes. O? late, he had grown more quiet than eyer; it waa .evident that some secret trouble wes wearing on him. His face had'Rot a care-worn look; we noticed a streak of gray here and there in his hair and beard. But, if anything, be was more faithful than ever in his work in the' Linden office. Of course, we never spoke to him of the change in him; but we did among ourselves, and were nil sorry for. him, in our way. Farley said it. was. his wifo was leading him a sorry life of it. Ho had married, a year or two beforo, a girl from Cnro mel Corners, they said, named Mary Winton, I think. Only tho day before, coming down with the Garrow and Glon Kilns Express, I had met Blissom, with the up mail, at Hackerby Station, and said to him: "What's up with Glenning, now? He looks dreadfully cut up." Blissom was a Lindenbury mau; I live in Tidewater, myself. "That Mary Winton's n-leading Glen? ning a nnggy tramp of it, I hear," says Blissom; ho knew Mary before she was married. "They do say she's a tarrier to go on when her back's up, and gives it to Glenning all-fired." Blissom was a good fellow, but rough. But, as I said, Glenning seemed all the more faithful sinco his homo trou? bles; I never thought of doubting him. So we plunged on through the darkness. 1 We had a passenger car that night, as it uncommonly happened, directly behind the tender. I stood on the forward plat? form, and kept an anxious lookout. The air was full of a thick drizzle; our speed made a strong West wind there, outside. Ou we went, keeping our paco well up we hnd no right to go ahead of time through Sadler's drop, in the Clitherow Hills, out then into tho level country beyond. As the whistle blew for Gar rowfield Station, I passed back tbrougl the forward car. Tho telegraph office ic ( 3 arrowfield is a little East of the plat' form. Seeing tho passengers look hard at me, I then first noticed that mj clothes were dripping wet. Near tht rear end of the car an Irish woman sat, with her head on the window, fast asleep T shook her roughly; I hoped she mighl get down here. She started up with i confused flutter. "This Hackerby, sir?" "Last station back," I said. "You'r< too far on." "Ow, thin, au' what'll iver I do?' says she. "Shure, Dennis is afther os pectin' of me, au' he'll think I'm kilt in tirely." "You must get oft' hero," I said "Como, be quick." The train was be ginning to slow speed. "Shure, thin, sir," she pleaded, "it'i mesilf has au owu sisthcr, is a launder) in LindiDgbarry, itself. If ye'd be st kind to lit mo down there. I haven't nc monoy, sir; but I'd bring it ye bright ir the marnin'." "Can't do it," I said. Wo wore clos< upon tho station. I bustled her out roughly enough, I suppose. A gentleman, sitting by with his wife had been watching us. I saw his faoi fire up as I hustled tho woman out. Hi jumped up and faced mo. "What do you mean?" he says, all hot "It's a brutal shamo to put tho womal off in the night, in a .strange town, will no money. Here, I'll pay her fare." I pushed her through the door; gav him no answer. He held mo by tin arm. "Your name?" ho demanded, sternly "Mine is Charles Holden. I report you.1 I was not angry with him-he did no know. ..My name is William Whipple." I saw a fellow I knew on the platform "Caley," I calls, "show this woman decent lodging. Pay-I'll make it al right." I telegraphed to Linden: "Shull I come on? Why don't yo send me word of the Lime Lake Mail?' I don't think I breathed till the ar swer came : "Come on. Be on your guard. GE HEKE nv 10." Good huaveu! ?t was maddening What did it mean? What could i menu? I rushed out, waved my arm madly t Morris. "Go on, there-quick!" I yelled. I ran ahead, and climbed up on th engine. I looked at my watch. 1 wanted six niiunf.es of 10! I held th slip before his eyes. His fuco blanche white ns a corpse. "Good God, Whipple! it's scveut miles an h OUT!" "I don't know what it means. It some mad work. But we've got to obe orders. Drive like h- ! I run through tho train taking til fares. How could they laugh and tall Every minute I heard the scream of tl traiu ahead, that I dreaded as I sha never fear death. The speed iucreasc steadily. Tho curs rooked on the spring Tho passengers grow uneasy; tho womc looked fearfully ono to another. Son men expostulated: "Why aro you running so fast? I yon want to murder us all?" "Wo aro Ordered to bo at Lindenbui by 10," I said. It wanted just four ir untes. I saw tho glaro of Bell's ltollii Mills flash by-fivo miles ondit half L.! I ran forward to tho platform of tl ! first car. By tho forward door sat a lad I with a child iu bei- lap, asleep-a lit! red that night seem barfit into cay me strangers' hands, more tra? kindness and Christian courtesy then I had believed in before; and shutting my eyes, I see that sweet child's faoe smiling in its pare dreams, the mother's beautiful face b no odin g above it with a look?of/ hea? venly tenderness and love. I feel the heave of the hurling train, feel the car sway and spring with .tho terrible speed. I remember all, as I saw it harrying throngh the car. I passed out on the platform. It wanted three minutes of 10. I knew we could not make it, though Morris was driving on with every pound of steam. I saw him stand? ing at the levers, brawny and stalwart against the glare of the head-light, flying ahead on tho track, ono arm raised and grasping the lever, looking steadfastly forward, never turning his hoad to right or left. I knew what he looked for only too, weill I shudder and turn sick to thiuk'of it, now. Before Heaven, it was awful. To stand out there iu that rushing whirlwind, clinging as for your lifo in that swaying, hurling flight; to stare forward iuto that awful darkness; to strain your sight until you were dizzy and blind, and your eyes wero fire; and yet not dare to closo them or turn away-deafened and stunned by that terrible jar and roar; heart and pulse faint with a horrible fear-tho fear of sudd. .1 death! Was I a coward-who says it? May ho be tried alike! God forgive me-what do I say? Pray heaven, no-that wero a fiend's prayer. 1 do not say I did not caro for myself. I did-who cares no! for his lifo that is man? I thought of a little humble home sixty miles behind: of a little brown-fneed boy, smiling in happy sleep; of a dear heart bending over tho crib, perhaps; sewing by thc lonely lamp; praying for me, it might be, out of her pure, true heart. I thought of these, and I prayed to Heaven tc sparo mo to life and love. But more than of this, I say and know, I thought of the hundreds that trusted to mo foi their lives-looked to me to seo to it thal they encountered no needless peril. Tc strain ahead into that awful gloom-tc think and think of those poor souls ir my charge-I swear it was torment. I lost all senso of time and place, it tho intense strain of sight and thought I could not anywhere we were^itseemec wo were running for hours. I knev what I looked to soe-what I fearec with a horrible dread; I knew only that Morris never slackened the pace; h< drove his eugine on with every pound o power. They tell me wo made five mile: in half a minute more. Suddenly, we leaped through a belt o deeper gloom; a heavy roll of thunde struck my ears with a stunning crash, kuew it was Merrill's Gap. Tho road la; lovel through tho plain to Climmerle; Gap beyond. Half of tho way wu passed; we hurled on, terrible as fate. Suddenly, out of the blackness o Cl iin morley Gap, there flashed-oh God a great, white light. I went iu then and shut thc door. . They must have seen it in my face When I turned aud looked forward again tho lady with tho child stood at my side I shall never forget tho look in her face tho child was clasped to her heart "What is it?" she said. She spoke in a whisper, moro awfu than any cry. The two engines screamei like charging demons; wheels reversed and every brake hard down, wo wen staggering, shuddering, grinding on t our doom. But, through all that terri ble din, I heard that awful whisper fron those beautiful, bloodless lips. 1 pointed forward to the great, whit light, glowing down thc lino straigh upon us. "Ti's death," I said. She answered me not a word. Sh lifted the child to her face, then clutche it to her heart. "Louise, Louise!" sh moaned, and sank back out of my sight I stood and looked ahead. . A.t 'th first alarm, the fireman had jampee Morris stood to his post. I saw hil whistle down brakes, reverse his engine set his bell riuging, do all that mort; could do. Then ho stepped back, stet died himself, uud leaped out iuto th dark. I saw it all; it was only n mc meut's time. That terrible white light dashed straigl upon us-that awful, blinding glare c death! I heard a horrid crash, like 10,00 cannon-like tho rendi ig of the worlc I felt myself lifted and hurled throng the air-kndeked, battered, poundet pressed, bruised, twisted, crushed, str??c on the back as with ii steam-wliirle shaft. Then I was hying on the grnsi with a blinding glare in my [ey es. heard a low, weak moan. I turned m head-a woman lay close beside nie, wit a child clasped tight to her heart. Ther was blood on the beautiful lips-bot were dead. I remember no more. Heaven spare mo Ibo rpht of that horrible night. I wi taken up for dead. They brought m here, to St. Stophen's, to this bed, whei I have lain these six long months-lou months, and very weary, though all tin gentleness and skillful hands could d I bus been done for me.

R., night beforo las hung himself yesterday morning, ia barn near OU wrrafiy,. Oap.? The evi I dence at the coroner's inquest went to show that deceased ' had par taken freely of brandy on tho evening of the collision, after ho waa already in a etat? of ovideut intoxication. In another column of this morning's Herald, we print the only full and relia? ble lists of the ? killed and injured. Among the latter, our readers will notice tho name of Mrs; Mary W. Glenning, wife of the Lindenbury operator, who received "severe contusions of the head and face," and now lies at n farm house in a critical condition. Thus itstrangely happens tbnt the perpetrator of this ter? rible crimo hos his own wife for one of his victims. Wo learn that she intended to have taken the Down Night Express; but, being early at tho station, caught, most unhappily, tho belated mail. Upon her person was found a through ticket from Hilary, next West of L., to this city. She was escorted, wo understand, by a Mr. Mason, an old and esteemed friend of tho most unfortunate lady.
