They were examined one ata time, out of hearing of the rest, and they all implicated the same men, gave the same names, and told the same stories. 'They were then taken out, and coolly and deliberately hung. - Five of the 'same gang were al-] so arrested and exeented - at Bannock- making thirteen in all. \In arresting the last batch, one of them, a Mexican, fir, ed on the arresting party from his demi: cile, and killed one of the citizens and wounded another, A mountain howit zew was then ranged; and a raking fire opened on the cabin, completely rid- dling it, and severely wounding the des perado concealed within. - He was ta. ken out and buug, the cabin then torn down and piled up, and placed on it and burned. The miners havo sworn vengeance against the highwaymen, and say they jutend to make a cleau sweep of them. This deliberate banging and summary proceeding had already had a very de- sirable effect _ Col.

It lies not. in the possession of a high sounding 'title, or the. right to write \ Hon.\ before your nats, or \ A. B.,\ or \F R. S\ after it. . Itis mot in being.the proprie: tor of a \ marble front\ on 6th Avenue; or & \stockholder\ fun Wall St; Not by any means. Greatness consists. in being alive to whatis going on around us; in living actually; in giving voice . to the thought of humanity; in saying f to dur fellows what they want or. need | to hear at that moment. You cannot affect the world unless you respond to its needs, or embody its ideas. Histo: ry tolls us that all great men have been a piece of their time-made for their day and generation; for if you take} them out, set them elsewhere, they will not fit well, If literature be your aim; if you wish to sugcéed. as a writer, let your mind mirror what is doing. around you. *Do not seek to dagnerroctype the outside lone; 'but strive to reflect thoughts, actions, feelings and ~senti; ments. Again: another avenue to sic: cess in life is decision of cbaracter. . A, wisn with a weak vacillating. spirit, will never make his niark in the world. T6 was decision of character that made Alexander (\ Great;\ his indecisfor that caused his premature death. The only redeeming trait in Shakspear's Richard and Lady Macheth is their de-, cision of character. Milton's \ Satan,\ which he portrays as an ambitions, proud myth, is the possessor .of great decision. If; then, the possession of this god'like attribute calls forth our admiration when connected with ancient: lore, how. mich more should we prizé' it as belonging to the youthful aspfrant? Again: it Is never. foo late to learn. Franklin was fifty years old before he began in real oariest the study of natu- ral philosophy. - Creek was the first for sign language which Cato,-the céle brated Roman censor; acquired; and he | did so in his old age.
