of a lamp that his rate of progicss remained
about the baiiio. Troin 10 to 10 30 lib ad

"O , I'm till right" At 0iO : ; Varne light

very imperfect opportunities he hid for Judg

great interestln s\\lniinlng , and I do not exag
gerate in saj Ing that the Rcncnil verdict Is ,
"notpraen. " If Dalton really nccoinpllshed
hounriinllcd featof sw inunlng llio channel
on hit. buck , why did ho not tuko such pre
cautions as would phico his laurels bejond
doubt ? I leivo it to otbera to answer this
: iucstion
Coming luck now to Dalton himself , I
found him inbednt the swi-nrnlng baths , Ids
eyrs bandaged but othciwiso looking asell
nsposslble. Spcikingof llio swim ho slid
with astiong Oetmnn accent : ' " 'Ilio fli-st
