Tlio oross-bow was untloubtotlly tlio most deadly of all tho missilo weapons before tlio perfecting of fire-arms. Tho Spaniards brought it to tho greatest do grco of ellleioiicy, hut tho l'rench and English also mado vory flno cross-bows. Tlio stocks of somo cross-bows aro ntralght, othors aro crooked, somowhat nftor tho shapo of tho Htook of it gun. A great many of these weapons had wooden bows which woro made of yew wood, but more had steel lathes. Tho arrows of tho cross-bow woro called quarrels, or bolts. Thoy woro shorter, thicker and heavier than tho arrows of tho Knglish long-bow. Tlio place In tho oross-bow where tho hiring is fast ened whon it is nulled baok, ready to nhoot, is called the nut. From tho nut to the foro end of tho stock tho wood is hollowed out, so that, whon a quarrel is placed in position for firing, it does not - touch the Hloulc, except at tho tip of its notch and the point where it lies on tho fore end. Tho trigger works easily on a pivot, causing the nut to freo tho string, whereupon tho bow discharges tho quarrel. Tlio history of tho oross-bow is very interesting. You will iind that Richard tho Lion-Hearted was a great cross-bowman, lie used to carry a vory strong iirbnllst (tho old namo for cross-bow) witli him wherever ho went. Even on Ids long expedition to Palestine against.' mu oaracuiiH ins iuvoruu weapon wius his constant companion. At the siege of Ascalon, he is said to have nlmeu his quarrels so skillfully that many an armed warrior on tho high walls was pierced through nnd through. Tho stool bolts ilrod from tho strong , est oross-bowa would crash through any !iL.."l'ut tho very ilnost armor. There aro broast-platos and helmets of stool, pre served among tho .British antiquities, which have boon piorcod by quarrels. I have road in old books, written in French and Spimlsh, all about how thoso terrible weapons woro made and used. Richard was killed by a quarrel from a rronch crcss-bow. A plowman in tho provmco of Com idogno unearthed a gold statuette of Minerva, a most valuable thing. This lie divided, sending one half to Richard, nml keeping tho other half himself. Hut, you know, in thoso days a King wanted everything. Itichard's lion heart could not brook to divido a treasure with one of liis vassals. So ho poromptorily de manded the other half of tho treasures which being rofused, ho called together n small army and went to lay siege to tho strong castlo of Chains, in Norman dy, whoroin tho troasuro was said to be hiddou. Hut it was a dear expedition ior tho bold King. A famous cross bowman by tho namo of Bertram do Jourdan, standing on tlio tall turret of tho castlo, saw lClchard riding arotttul in tho plain below and took steady aim at him. This Bertram do Jourdan had cnusoto hato tho King, for Richard had killed his two brothers with his own hand. So when ho pressed tho trigger ot ins powerlul cross-now no sont a hiss of revenge along with tho stool-headed quarrel. Richard heard the keen twang of tho bow-string and boat low over the foow of his saddlo, but the arrow struck him in tlio shoulder and he died of the wound. So, you soo, ho would have dono bettor tb leave that gold alone. Howovor, his men stormed tlio castlo nnd brought Bertram do Jourdan bo foro him while ho lay dying. Richard was too noble to mistreat a prisoner, so ho gave tho cross-bowman a miigulticGnt present and ordered him to be sot at liberty. But one Maroadco, an infamous unite, who was next in command to Richard, us soon as tho King was dead ordered Do Jourdan to bo Hayed alivo nnd hung up for the vultures to eat. In tho year 1100, William II., sur nanicd Rufus, ti famous King of En- i;laud, and a son of tho conqueror, was tilled by a cross-bow bolt in tho forest nt Charnlngham, accidentally, it is said, by "Sir Walter Tyrrel, his bow-bearer. A nephew of lung Rufus hud been killed In May of tho samo year by a liko mishap. But tho deeds dono with tho cross-bow woro not all so bloody and torriblo. From a very early dato in tho history of Franco companion of rross-bowmen have existed, tunoncr which thoso at Lisle, Roulalx, Lonnoy, Comincs, Lo Guosnoy and Yalonclonnes may bo mentionod us prominent. That at Roulaix was instituted by Piorro do Roulalx In 1491, a your bo foro America1 was discovered by Colum bus. Tho members of thoso soclotics shqt at targets and marks of various kinds, nml thoir mcotlngs tyero ofton tho occasion for groat pomp and splon tlor. Many of those companies havo boon suppressed by law iu comparative ly recent times, In England, lUiavo read, as far bnck ns tho rolgn? of William .Rufus, laws woro passed forbidding tho ttso of the nrbalist, excepting by persons having especial royal permit. This was bc causo tho cross-bow, particularly tho kind with a windlass attachment to draw tho string, was so destructivo to tho King's deer. You will at ouco sco tho groat advantage tho nrbalist gave to huntsmen who used it instead of tlio long-bow; for ho could shoot from any tangled thicket where a long-bowman could not use his weapon at ail. Then, too, it required years of patent practica boforo muu could shoot wetl enough with ft long-bow lo -hit a door, whno any one, with but a day or Uvo'b expe rience, could successfully aiin a cross bow. , Once Do Solo and his men woro pur suing somo Hying savages, whon one suddenly turned Ids face toward tho Spaniards and halted. Ho was armed with a long-bow and arrows, and was just across a nan'ow river from his foes, lie made signs that ho clwdlenged any one 61 . tho Spanish cross-bowmen to light a duel with him. The challenge was accepted by ono Juan da Salinas, a most expert arbalister, who stopped forth and faced tho Indian. The com rades of Salinas offered to cover him with their shields, but the bravo soldier scorned to take advantage of a naked savage. So ho refused tho cover, and placing n quarrel on tho, nut of his drawn bow made ready to shoot. Tho Indian also was ready by this time, and both discharged their arrows at tho samo moment. But Salinas was cooler under such stress of danger than the Indian was, and so took truer aim. His quarrel pierced the savage warrior's heart, and ho fell (load. The bows of tho savages woro puny things when matched against the steel nrbnRsts of tho trained Spanish soldiers. Tlio In dian's slender reed arrow passed through tho littpo of Juan do Salinas' neok, but without seriously hurting him. A quilted shirt of doubled silk was suilicieut protection against most of the Indian missiles, and a man iu steel armor was proof ngnlnst all. 1 have seen a picture of Queen Eliza beth, of England, representing her in the act of shooting at u deer with an nrbalist. But she had a strong man for hcrbow bearor, and all she had to do was to take aim and pull tho trigger after tlio bow-bearer had made tlio nrbalist all ready for shooting. The manner of hunting deer In thoso days was to stand in a spot whence you could see in all directions through tho forest, whilo a number of export woods men drovo'tho game near to you as you held your nrbalist ready to shoot If you shot at a runnlnir deer you had to aim far ahead of it iu order to hit it. Hare or rabbit shooting was great sport for tho cross-bowmon. For this purpose lighter arballsts woro used. Tho huutorkent carefully trained dogs, somowhat llko'our pointers and setters, whoso business It was to lind tho game. Twonty-fivo yards was about tho usual distance for shooting at rabbits. Thoy woro rarely shot while running Maurice Thompson, in St. Nicholas. Struck Dumb Whilo Committing jury. Per- A strange story comes from tlio east ern portion of tills county of a woman being struck dumb whilo giving false testimony. Tho facts as related aro as follows: On last Friday a colored man named James Price was on trial before Esquire Alien, a Justice of the Pcaco, who has an olllco on tho Macon road, between (lorinantown and Bartlutt, Tonn. Prico had beon boating a num ber of men in tho neighborhood, and Isabella Jackson, n colorod woman, was placed on tho witness stand to toll what sho know of tho matter. Sho be gan her evidence, and was soon after asked by tlio Justice: "Do you not know that you aro lyingP" Sho an swerod, "Yes, Sir." These woro tho last words Isabella Jackson over spoko. Sho had appeared quite independent, and to some extent impudent, when first put upon tho stand, and after her last remark a number of questions woro asked, but tho woman made no reply. Believing that sho was sham ming, tho .Justice directed Constable W. II. Allen to escort tho witness from tho court-room, but when ordered to follow that ollicor sho did not move. Two men of her own color woro then told to carry lierout of tho room. While in tlio act of carrying her out it was oh served that sho was m a helpless condi tion. Sho had beun paralyzed in every part, her limbs woro motionless, her tonguo had no power, and it soon be came apparent to all present that the hand of tho Almighty had been laid heavily upon her. tor two hours or thereabouts tho woman romained in this passive stato, aftor which sho was placed in a wagon and convuyod lohorhome. Sho never moved or spoko afterward, but on Saturday cvoning she expired, no antidote applied during tlio interval having availed in affording thu slightest relief. Tho incident is verified by 'Squire Allen, boforo whom tho woman ftppoared, and also by a number of per sons present at tho tlmo of its oeeur ronco. Mcmjihis Uor. Louisville Courier Journal.

"Somo of tho best knbwn aro engaged regularly, but a number refuse to mako any binding contracts, preferring to work on thu outside and soil their ideas and sketches, but ther are objections to (loin this, inasmuch as unprincipled foremen can and often do steal an Idea that has been offored for sale and ro fused.

NELLY'S TEMPTATION. " I think I shall go by the Mill road to school this morning," said Nolly May to her littlo brother Fred, as tho two started out from homo, ono lino October morning, to walk tho milo that stretched out through pleasant fields be tween their father's house and tho school-room. " Old pleaso don't," said Fred, plead ingly. "That is an ugly, rough road. "But tho hickory-nuts grow there," said Nolly. " There may bo somo fallen bv the bridge. I shouldn't wonder n bit if thoro were," "I know thoro aron t," answered Fred. "John and I eamo by there yesterday, and thoro wasn't one." "Oh! that was yesterday," said Nolly. "There may be lots to-day." "And it's over so much farther, and we'll bo late at school," persisted Fred, holding back. "There is no danger of being late," answerod Nolly; "and it itiii'l much farther. You're lazy; that's all. But I'm going that way, and you may as well come along." "I don't want to," urged liftbl I.Vol bocrmninfr to crv. I'm tired, and it is wVll. .IWJ -.lil, a, long way. Mother said we wero to go straight to school, and not loiter." "Who is going to loitor, I'd liko to know," snappodNolly. "You need a 0 T f m.kiS- F1 Mjiy. You'ro just the laziost boy 1 know. "Tired! tircdP That's all you can say," continued tho littlo girl, quito crossly, and getting angrier every moment. "I guess 1 walk as many stops as you do and carry this great heavy lunch-pail and all my books into tlio bargain, whilo you have only that teenty-toonty baby Reader ami Arithmetic, I'm not tired, and neither aro you; so just I'm going tlio Mill way, march along, whether you liko it or not. tool" Freddy, who was a .-"akly littlo fol low, only seven years old, and not used to walking, began to cry, as lie followed behind his sturdy ten-yoar-old sistor, who trudged briskly over tho uneven Mill road, instead of following the smooth pike, which was not only the shortest way to school, but also much tho pleasantcr walk. For a few minutes Nelly walked very fast and with firm steps, holding her head high, and looking straight before her. Presently Freddy's littlo whimper ing cry attracted her attention. Sho looked around. Tho little boy was al most running, as ho tried in vtiintokoop up with her. "What aro you crying for, baby?" sho asked, as sho waited for Freddy to eouio up. "You'ro a great boy, I must say." "I don't want to go this long, rough way," Freddy said, as ho tried to choke back his sobs, for Nolly's scornful tones, as sho pronounced tho words "baby" and "boy," stirred the littlo lad's heart. "You wouldn't want to, either, only you think may bo Nancy Lewis will "bo at the bridge, and you 11 got somo of hor crapes without going to her house, 'cause mother said you musn'tgo to her house any more." "You naughty, hateful bo'!" criod Nolly, catching Freddy by tho arm, and giving him a llttlo shako." "How daro you say such a thing? You'ro as mean and hateful as you can bo. I was just going: to offer to carry your books for you, out now I shan't. You may carry them yourself, and I havo a great mind to mako 3ou tako this dinner-pail too." Poor Nelly! Her cheeks wero rod, and her eyes Unshed, whilo her pretty mouth parted with all its beauty as' the two rosy lips puckered thomsolvcs up in to n vory ugly pout. Freddy said no more, and tho two children walked, on in silonco for somo moments. Then a voico that seomwl to como from insido hor heaving bosom spoko so plainly to Nolly. " Freddy is right, and you aro wrong," it said. " You know that you aro only walking on this road in tho hope of mooting Nancy at tho bridge, and get ting somo grapes from hor without ox actly golug to hor house for them. Your motiior forbade you to go to Nanoy's house for any moro grapes. You think you can still got tho grapes by coming this way, and you do not caro for your weakly littlo brother. Perhaps ho may fall ill from this loug triuhjo. Your mother told you to bo kind to him, and to take good caro df ldaJJ&ml;you promisedlto do 'so,, jfou promised to think of your verse; top. And you havo culte forgotten it." " Nbllyfelt vory uncomfortable. The voice spoke again: "You know tluUyyoit'aro not coming this way for nuts, but for grftpet-you tried to de ceive Freddy as tfl"your motive, but ho was not deceived, and because ho saw vourreal motlvo, and told you of it, you became angry t nnd spoko orosslj, and shook him; you havo added sin to sin. And all because you have forgotten your verso." And just their Nelly ro mem.bere'd. Her verso for tho day had been: Lead us not Into temptation, but de liver us from evil." Slio had promised her mother to think of it during the day. And before an hour had passed she had quite forgotten it. Uh ucuri" said iNclly, with a sigh; "what a wicked girl I anf." Freddy hoard tho words, and looked up quick down his ly. lie saw a great tear roll sister's cheek. "Don't cry, Nelly, ho said. "I'll walk my best. You'aron't such a wick ed girl. 1 wish we had a grape-vine, nml you could have all the grapes you wanted, and then you wouldn't want to "go to Nancy Lewis' so much. Shu is a cross, naughty girl, and sho makes you cross, too. That's all." Nelly put down her books and tho pail, and knelt down in tlio road and Hung her arms around her littlo brother. " You dear little forgiving tiling!" She said, hugging Freddy tightly to her. "'That's all7 that's cnouglj, I think. I've been as mean as' moan can be. And I'm ashamed, Freddy May; and I must stop right here sind ask God to forgive me, and to load mo not into temptation." And thcro with her arms around Freddy, Nelly prayed for forgiveness nnd help; ami, rising to her feet, she took Freddy, books, Tuuch-pail and all, up in her stout arms, and carried them back to tlio turn where tho Mill road branched off from the pike. "Thcro now," site said, as sho put Freddy down and fanned her hot cheeks with her geography cover, " we'll go the straight safo road, and after a whilo I'll give you another lift; and if you sco mo starting .oil into temptation again to-day, Freddy Ma, you just call out: "Lead me not" and "I'll remember my verso; will you?" "Yes, 1 will," said Freddy, smilin bniriitlv. "I'm rested a good do jal now. and I don't believe you'll need to yo rrc carry mo any more, loir re a good sis tor, Nelly." Mary E. O. Wyeth, in S. S.

Whon you go oii a journey you are a pass enger; your ticket is paid for; and ns you aro neither captain, pilot, con ductor, nor engineer, give yourself no trouble about the way car or boat is be ing managed. Never tako responsibili ty that does not belong to you. The old Romans used to call baggage impedimenta. They tried to havo as littlo of it as they could when on n march. Unloss you arc going to stay n long time, take no more luggage than is necessary. A littlo hand-bag or a shawl-strap, with perhap3 an umbrella, is all that a young traveler should have to caro for on a journey. When you purchase your ticket, if no older friend is with you to attend to tho checking of your trunk, you must see to it yourself. This is 'very simple. Go witli your ticket to the place to which tlio expressman has takon your trunk, show your ticket to tliobaggage mastor, and ho will attach a check to your goods, and give you ono pre cisely liko it. You must put this away in ii pjace where yon can get at it con veniently, as you must return it to tho steamer or railway company when you claim your property. Never tuck your ticket out of sight or into somo out-of-the-way pockot. Have it ready to show the conductor when ever it is called for.
