It was humbly spoken: “ T ruth, Lord.” It was bravely spoken; for she found food for fzith in the harl crusts of our Lord’s language. Our Lord had used a word which should be rendered little dogs, and she caught at it. Little dogs become the playmates of the children ; they lie under the table, and pick up the fragments which fall to the ground from the table of their little masters. The householder so far takes the little dog under his care as to allow him to be under the table. If.

Without flattery, we may say that those words might have been truly used by him; and they were most appropriately inscribed upon the olive~ wood casket that contained his remains; but he did not utter them: it would have been contrary to the whole spirit of his life for him to have done so; he had far The “Armour-bearer’s *" Last Despatch Concerning His Glorified Captain.

Dr. Fitz- Henry did all that medical skill, constant attention, and loving care could suggest ; Mrs. Spurgeon, Miss Thorne, Mr. Allison, Mr. Samuel, and myself Were unceasingly watchful for opportunities of helping the beloved sufferer; but alas ! for most of the time he was completely unconscious, and unable to communicate any parting word to the beloved ones who waited eagerly for the faintest syllable from his dear lips." He could not utter no “dying testimony ;” his forty years ministry made that unne-‘ cessary. If there is a regret that he .pass- ted away without being able to give any 1 word of farewell. there is also the satis- l faction of knowing that there was, on his part, no pain at parting from his beloved wife and family and friends, and no anxiety as to the Church, College, Orphan- age, Evangelists, Colporteurs, and the many works and workers he was leaving ' behind him We might have desired a , different ending to such a wonderful life ; l but our Lord knew best, and against His . will we must not rebel. This already too long “despatch” must be closed with one bright reminiscence. Mrs. Spurgeon had been looking at the planets, Jupiter and Venus, which were unusually bright even for Menton, where the stars generally shine with a brilliance unknown in our dull island-home. Speak- ing of her beloved, she said, “I wonder what he thinks of those planets now.” I replied, “If they are inhabited, he has asked the Lord to let him go, that he may preach the gospel there.” “No doubt of it ” she added, “for how often he said that, When he got to heaven, he would stand at the corner of one of the streets, and proclaim to the angels the old, old story of Jesus and his love!" This was his interpretation of the textâ€" “To the intent that now unto the princi- palities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the mani- fold wisdom of God, according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Murder WithO'Jt a Parallel. ST. PETERSBURG, April 7 .â€"â€"One Vlad- kofi'skl, the magistrate of Suchum, mar- ried seven years ago a young, rich and beautiful widow, whose almost mad devc- t-ion to her husband attracted universal attention. The pair lived happily until a few Weeks back, when the poor woman was found to be in a galloping consump- tion. She got into her head that her husband would marry again soon after her death, which must take place in a few weeks; and to prevent this she determined to kill him. She therefore provided her- self with a reVolver and fired at her partner while he was _asleep. The bullet how ever. did not inflict a vital wound; and Vladkoffski, who was as much attached to his wife as she to him, not only made no complaint but unfortunately for himself took no precautions to gaurd himself against a future attack. A few nights later the woman made another effort to carry her plan into execu- tion, and this time with success, for, plac- ing the barrel of the weapon close to her husband’s breast, she sent the leaden mes- senger clean through her heart, and settl- ed hinn instantaneously. When all was over, about an hour before midnight on Lord-day, January 31, 1892, the little company of five, before mention- ed, knelt by the bedside, and the ‘armour- bearer’ first gave thanks that the clear sufferer was at rest, and then commended all who had been so sorely‘bereaved to the sustaining grace of the Divine Comforter. Ere anyone stirred, another voice was heardâ€"it was of the beloved widow, who, even in that trying hour, tlmnkedthe Lord for the precious treasure so long lent to her, and sought at the throne of grace the strength and help so sorely needed. Nor did she seek in vain, for when it became neeedful to send the sad tiding, nut only to relatives and friends in England, but also to “Son Tom” in New Zealnnd. the simple yet comprehensive niesssage was sent to the clear one far away :-â€"â€" “ Father in heaven.

She is of course under arrest, but will never be brought to trml. for the doctors report that she cannot possibly live for more than mfew davs. The Agriculture and Art Association Thursday decided to hold the spring fat stock show at Guelph in May. The children of NiUhtwath man Wil- l ams were burned in their home at St. Louis Thursday in the absence of their parents. She was so weak that it was with the utmost difficulty, as she herself has since stated, that: she managed to drag herself to the bedside of her sleeping husband. THH WATCHMANH LiNbSAié, THURSDAY: APRIL 14’ “92‘ The Globe says the police have been unable to trace Deeming’s exact where- abouts at the time these murders were committed in Whitechapel. It is thought that with the clue furnished them by the girl some startling developments may be looked for, and that the Whitcchapel imysteries may at last be solved.

Notwithstanding the fact the jury which was investigating into the death of Mrs. Deeming, who was murder- ed at her home at \Vindsor, a. suburb of this city, yesterday rendered a verdict of wilful murder against her husband, Deeming to-day shows the same charac- teristics that have marked him since his arrest. The verdict does not seem to aflect him in the least, and he is in turn jocular and insolent. The more the man is studied the deeper becomes the belief of many persons that he is utterly without conscience and equally dev01d of fear. Those who have studied him closely, how- ever, think his conduct is mere bravado, and that when he finds the noose tighten- ing about his neck he will become an abject coward,” _ Deeming will be tried April 22. The defence will be congenital insanity. The prisoner maintained his composure in court, but broke down utterly when he reached his cell. He says he is a moral monstrosity.

A more liberal offer it would be difficult to make. No extra charge for anything : $5.00 PER MONTH AND MEDI- CINES FREE. LONDON, April 7.-â€" The Globe says a dressmaker livint.r in the east end of Lon- don has recognized a. portrait of Deeming as that of the man who courted here under the name of Lawson in the autumn of 1881. She states that they were walking together on the night of September 2!) and parted from each other at 11 o’clock. The following morning: the shockingly mutilated bodies of the women Strider and Eddores were found in the White- chapel district. The dressmaker says she met Deeming, or Lawson as he was known to her. on the afternoon of September 30. They had a long Conversation on the suhject of the Whitechapel murders, and Decking show- ed he was Conversant with ex n‘y one of the horrible outrages. A remark was made concerning a suggestion cont=:ined in a newspaper that the murders of the night before were commit-ted shortly after midnight. Deeming seemed in forget; to whom he was talking, and said to the girl, “Look at the time; I cc uld not have com- mitted the murders.” The girl was very much struck by this uncalled for remark, and she often since thought. of it. Through- out the afternoon Deeming was very much agitated and eagerly read the newspaper comments on the crimes. A few days later he vanished and the girl never saw him again. Though the remark inadvert- ently dropped by Deeming, and his subse- quent actions, aroused a suspicion in the girl’s mind that Deeminq perhaps was the murderer. She did not until now com- municate her suspicions to the police. steer; But I answered, with heart beating 10w, “I’ll do nothing so fearfully vulgar, my dear I will merely, and mournfully, "0. ,n These eminent doctors treat every var- iety of disease and deformity, and perform all surgi'al operations. viz: The removal of cancers, tumors, cataract, polypi, etc. All diseases of the eye, ear. throat, lungs, heart. stomach, liver, kidneys, bladder, and all female difficulties arising from what;- ever cause,all nervous prostrations, failing vitality, and diseasea originating from im- pure blood, are treated with the greatest success.
