DREADFUL ASSAULT ON A WOMAN.-At the Shef- field Town Hall, on Wednesday morning, a powerful man, named Parish Thompson, was remanded, charged with murderously assaulting his neighbour, Ellen Mus- son, the previous night. Prisoner beat the woman on the head with a poker till her skull was beaten in, and she now lies in a dying condition. BISMARCK is a great smoker, and one day during one of the great battles of the late war he found him- self with a solitary cigar in his case,, and with no chance of replenishing. He determined to reserve that cigar till the end of the day, when if victory were won the weed would be doubly enjoyable. To quote his own words, 11 I painted in glowing colours in my mind the happy hour when I should enjoy it after victory. But I had miscalculated the chances. A poor dragoon lay helpless with both arms crushed, mur. muring for something to refresh him. I felt in my pocket and found that I had only mouey, and that would be of no use to him. But stay; I still had my treasured cigar. I lighted this for him and placed it between his teeth. You should have seen the poor fellow's grateful smile. I never enjoyed a cigar so much as that one which I did not smoke."

FROM PONTYPOOL TO ABERDOYEY…
FROM PONTYPOOL TO ABERDOYEY ON A BICYCLE. It was a fine August morning, and about half- past eleven, as I rode slowly out of Pontypool, mounted on my 48-inch machine, which, during the previous week, had carried me from London to Bristol. Continuing along the Usk road, I took the turn- ing on the left, which occurs before coming to the Railway Arch, and is generally known as Colonel Byrde's road. I found the ascent steep and rough, and therefore dismounted; indeed, I was very glad when I again reached the main road at Llanover, from whence to Abergavenny I enjoyed a capital spin, arriving shortly before one o'clock. While at lunch I heard that it was the Warden's fete-day at Raglan Castle, so rode over, and spent three hours very agreeably that afternoon among the classic ruins which year by year afford so much interest to hundreds of tourists. I found the first few miles fairly good, but from Clytha to Raglan the roads were decidedly rough, so that a stretch on the grass under the shade of some of the numerous trees in the Castle grounds was a very pleasant change. Afterwards a stroll round the ruins, a refreshing cup of tea, and I was in the saddle once more, shortly after six, with a clear summer evening, and a long ride before me. I had the wind against me on my return journey to Abergavenny, so found the riding hard the greater part of the way. Reaching the town about seven, I stopped a short time for a glass of milk and soda water (my favorite drink, when on the track), and then pushed on to Crickhowell, some six miles, the whole of the way being level and smooth, so that I did the distance in a little over half an hour, without dismounting for the short hill at the entrance to the town. I found com- fortable quarters at the Beaufort Arms for the night. Previous to supper I was shown round the place by an old inhabitant, who pointed out the principal objects of interest, and, with evident pride, conducted me through the pretty church- yard, so neatly kept, and abounding in rich floral decorations. Descending on to the bridge over the Usk, in order to observe the view and watch the fish rise, we chatted for a while, till the shades of evening deepened into night, when 1 returned to the hotel. Next morning I rode away at 10.30, for Brecon, fourteen miles, and found the roads excellent, as usual in this county, with only two slight ascents till reaching the well-known Bwlch Hill, up which I was, of course, compelled to walk. While doing so, and occasionally looking back to admire the country I had traversed, I met a fellow bicyclist slowing riding down, mounted on a 44-inch machine, and certainly somewhat heavily encumbered with luggage. Ap- parently he found it warm, for he had Jiis coat off, and a handkerchief thrown over the back of his neck to keep off the sun. On reaching the top of the hill, a crowd of Bma.11 boys soon col- lected, anxious to see me mount and ride down the steep descent, which I found required to be carefully ridden over at the commencement; but soon the incline becomes more gradual, and with the wind behind me I had a splendid ride into Brecon. After lunching at the Castle, and a. walk round the town, I was off again at three o'clock, and had an excellent spin on the Hay Road as far as the 7th milestone, when I turned to the left near a smith's forge, and had a rough cross-country road for a few miles, till I again met the turnpike-road to Builth, on the banks of the Wye, which introduced me to some of the most romantic mountain scenery of Wales. Riding swiftly, but silently, I was in constant fear of running over some of the rabbits which were rushing from one side of the road to the other, and only just managed to escape my front wheel. With a slight stoppage at Llyswen, I completed the nine- teen miles to Builth before six, and, after tea at the Lion Inn, proceeded for Llandrindod Wells, six miles; but, unfortunately, I took the wrong turning after crossing the bridge, and made a long round through Newbridge and Howey, of at I least ten miles, over very indifferent parish roads, so that it was quite dark when I reached the Rock The Evening was pleasantly spent in the company of some old acquaintances who hap- ) pened to be staying there, and with whom I drank the famoutj waters early the following morning. I After a substantul bJIILkfast, I wad ready to mount at the uyuak^timo {li^f-past ten), but for the first two milos kad to my horse, the pa&ottJ, wlierri mounted, anS luwi a the turnpiko road, through Dcldowlod, where I the turnpiko road, through Dcldowlod, where I again enjoyed a continuance of the mountain I scenery I experienced on the preceding day, which makes the course of the Wye so interesting to tourists. Rhayader, 12 miles, was reached about noon, and a stoppage made fur a refresher, the morning being somewhat sultry. Soon, however, I was bowling along the Aberystwith road, which winds through grand mountain scenery for some ten miles, till the remote hamlet of Liang-urig is reached, where I turned to the right, and com- menced the descent of five miles into Llanidloes. Here I had my usual cold luncheon, and afterwards 6trolledroundthis secluded little town, which, being market day, was rather full of country people, so that I had made up my mind to lead my machine on starting, but the people at the hotel were de- sirous of seeing me ride, and sent a man to clear I the way; and thus I rode away, the dandy horse receiving quite an ovation from the numerous market folks. I was informed that the direct road to Machynlleth was far too hilly, so took the longer route of thirty milea through Caersws; and, with the exception of some few miles after passing Carno, I had most excellent travelling, the last ten miles being a continual descent; the only dif- ficulty was to prevent my machine going too fast. It was a magnificent evening, and I experienced most thoroughly th £ charms of bicycling under specially favourable circumstances. Arriving at Machynlleth as the town clock chimed the quarter before nine, I was persuaded to stop the night, the road to Aberdovey being dangerous afLer dark for a stranger. Next morning I was in the saddle at seven, in order to complete the ten miles before breakfast, and felt thankful for the advice of the previous evening, the road being rough in places, with numerous sharp turnings on a steep inclme. By daylight, however, the riding was easy enough; j and the view of the estuary, with the tide coming in, and the morning mists slowly rolling up the wooded mountain sides, very charming. I found 1 my luggage, which I had sent on, awaiting me at It my friend's house, for I "had carried nothing with me except a few collars and a comb. 1 Thus terminated a most pleasant ridft through some of the finest scenery of Wales, without any j accident either to myself or my faithful steed. August 11, 1877. J. H.
THE NATIONAL DEBT.
THE NATIONAL DEBT. Perhaps no time could have been more oppor- tune than the present for the nation to give a glance to its public debt, and the occasion ia now afforded by a Parliamentary paper jnst issued. This, however, presiuts uo more than the skeleton of the subject, the bald figures, j which, nevertheless, are astounding in them- selves. England owed to her creditors in 1857, in round numbers, eight hundred and forty I milliogs sterling. The balauce against the country stands now at £77G,270,õH, and it must be confessed that it is au euonnons one still, apart from that which may be chargeable upou the various Indian and Colonial Exche- quers. Every tyro in history knows how the incubus began to grow—how the treasures of the country were lavished to fight the battles, and fill the exchequers, of foreign potentates— aud what good catne of it yet it represents only a fraction of the destruction wrought against civilisation, the commerce ruined, the industry thrown out of gear. The fruits of this exorbitant debt, 80 far as it was incurred during he Great War," are nowhere. We threw our millious into the sea. France, Germany, Aus- tria, even Russia, have felt the iufltieuce of those changes which the Holy Alliance was iu- voked to prevent, aud we have not a penny- weight's value of the five hundred millions ur so which we squandered upon that mighty wurk. But, assuming that the small, though noisy, section in England in favour of war fur Turkey were to persuade her»Govermnent and Parlia- met that the interests of the Empire required an immediate challenge to Russia which might throw the whole Continent into convulsion, the figures at which we have glauced are calculated to induce men of common sense to pause before joining in any pugnacious clamour when not the shadow of any excuse for it exists.—Echo.

A fine specimen of Yankee sharpness is mentioned in a telegram from Philadelphia. The Baltimore aud Ohio Railway Company has presented to the Secretary for War a claim on the Government for transporting troops for tbe protection of its line during the strikes. This causes surprise, no similar bill having been presented by any other railway company. The Cabinet has de- cided not to act in the matter M'U it bas beard from the other companies, and then the question will be submitted to tbe Attornt-y Qener&l.

"FOR A' THAT AND A' THAT." A PARODY. Much luck to honest poverty; It claims respect and a' that; But honest wealth's a better thing- We dare be rich for a' that. For a' that aDd m' that, And spooney oant and a' that: A man may live in luxury, And be a man for a' that.

CHURCH NEWS.—A shocking report reaches us con cerning the Bishops. We are informed they are per- petually winking at Miss Behaviour. -.Fut;. ASPARAGUS PAPER.-It is stated that paper of the flnest description for writing purposes may be made from the white fibrous root ends of asparagus. Mr W. H. SMITH has been appointed First Lord of the Admiralty, in place of Mr Ward Hunt, deoeased. The Hon. Frederick Arthur Stauley, Finanoial Secret- ary to the War Department, will succeed Mr Smith as Financial Secretary to the Treasury. Mr Stanley is Lord Derby's brother. A FAILURE REDEEMED.—The Manchester Examiner says :-u We have much pleasure in announcing that Mr Jas. Lilly, merchant, of 65, Back Piccadilly, whose failure was reported in August, 1873, with liabilities I' amounting to £32?622, and whose creditors accepted a composition of 9s in the pound, has now paid all his creditors in fulL" I SINGULAR EXPLOsION,-Recently, whilst a ship- wright named Willis was opening the man hole to examine the bottom of H.M.S. Invincible, an explosion joccurred which injured him severely about the face and 'arms. The cause is unknown, but is believed to be the (generation of gas from the red lead'and turpentine used in the paint. STEEL CARS.—The Grand Trunk Railway DirocUa 'ate of Canada proposes to introduce steel cars in which ito carry grain. Tney are to be shorter than the pre- sent cars, and as steel is much stronger than wood, will admIt of the grain being loader higher than it is at pre- iscut. The new cars are to weigh 6 tons and carry 18. The present cars weigh 10 tons and carry 10. The new models are beiug experimented with.. THE ELECTRICAL ILLUMINATION of the Lyons Rail- jway Station is being completed. They are now using twelve electric lamps. Ihe number will be enlarged (successively to twenty-four lamps, with one light-pro- jducing and one light-distributing machine. Experi- meats with electric lights were recently made on board ja Russian war vessel, and with such good result that the small print of newspapers could bo read four cables off. ANTHRACITE COAL GAS.—A melancholy result has been lately produced in America by the use of anthracite coal in a locomotive. At the Brookfield Coal Mine, on the Eric and Pittsburg Railroad, the coal is hauled out by a locomotive engine, and one morning the managers ordered anthracite coal to be used instead of the soft coal as formerly. A short time after the engine had passed into the slope, the men in charge became sud- denly affected by gas from the hard coal, and fell in a senseless condition. One of them managed to make his way to the mouth of the slope and gave the alarm, on which a large number of men rushed in to the rescue. These were almost immediately overcome by the gas, and also fell insensible. Subsequently squads of &>ur or five men were organised, and went in until they came- to a fallen comrade, when they carried, him back into the open air. In this way thirty-six were brought out, of whom six were already dead or died soon after. A WOMAN named Oates is lying at the Sheffield Hospital in a critical condition as the result of a Saturday night's row. She was watching a man and women fighting. The man had a frying-pan, and the blow intended for the woman struck her on the fore- head. Her skull was fractured, and a portion of her brains came out through the wound. Her depositions have been taken, as her condition renders recovery almost impossible. The man is in custody. I AN INQVZST was held at Willenhall on Saturday on the body of a man named Richard Hadley, a lock- maker, of Wednesfield, who was killed in a fight with another man, named William Yardley, on the previous 'Thursday. They had quarrelled because Yardley re- fused Hadley's request to pay for some drink. They stripped and fought, and in the second round Hadley was thrown. He became insensible, and died in a few minutes. The inquest Was adjourned for a post- i mortem examination. ELECTRIC LIGHT.-The question of gas v. electric light, now agitating so many bosoms and companies, may be settled, it would seem, at the approaching Paris Exhibition. That exhibition, instead of being closed at dusk, will, it is said, be openod in the evening,-and iU Iluminated by jets of electrio light, passed through the well-known candles of M. J abloclikotf. This process gives an enormous amount of light, with very little neat, one jet being as good as about 150 gas-burners, fand yet giving no more heat than an ordinary farthing J candle. The danger, too, is inappreciably small. A New York bootmaker is reported to have finished a remarkable pair of boots for a negro man who lives in Arkansas. The length of the shoe is seventeen and three-quarter inches, and six inches across the sole. The negro's foot, according to measurement, is four- Iteen inches around the ball, while the instep is nine- teen inches. The man is over seven feet in height, weighs 400 pounds, und is not more than twenty-six years of age. He has not a worn a pair of boots for years, and this pair is intended for Sundays, they with the last on which they were made, costing 16 dollars. This big-footed negro is a preacher. GERMAN COAL.-The comparative superiority of J Briusb and German coal has, says Consul Ward in his trade report on Eremen-Bremerhaven, been settled in a 'decisive manuer during the last few months. V'arious sorts of British and Westphalian coal have been tested 'by the Association of Coal Mine Proprietors in West- 'phalia, and by competent persons under the supervision jof German Naval Authorities, the results showing that there are several kinds of Westphalian coal equal, in all [essential points, to the best kinds of British coal. These results have, of course, given great satisfaction to those connected with the coal trade in Germany. The large German Steamship Companies and the German Navy have almost entirely discarded the use of British coal. ithe German Squadron, which lately visited Besika Bay, was furnished with German coal only.
