E. DROOD.</b></p> + <p>AN ADAPTATION.</p> + <p>BY ORPHEUS C. KERR.</p> + <p>CHAPTER XV.</p> + <p>"SPOTTED."</p> + <p>When the bell of St. Cow's began ringing for Ritualistic +morning-service, with a sound as of some incontinently rambling dun +spinster of the lacteal herd—now near at hand in cracked dissonance, as +the wind blows hither; now afar, in tinkling distance, as the wind +blows hence—MONTGOMERY PENDRAGON was several miles away from +Bumsteadville upon his walking-match, with head already bumped like a +pineapple, and face curiously swelled, from amateur practice with the +Indian Club. Being by that time cold enough for breakfast, and willing +to try the virtues of some soothing application to his right eye, +which, from a bruise just below it, was nearly closed, the badly banged +young man suspended his murderous calisthenics at the door of a rustic +hotel, and there entered to secure a wayside meal.</p> + <p>The American country "hotel," or half-way house, is, perhaps, +one of the most depressing fictions ever encountered by +stage-passenger, or pedestrian afield: and depends so exclusively upon +the imagination for any earthly distinction from the retired and +neglected private hiding-place of some decayed and morbid agricultural +family, that only the conventional swing sign-board before the door +saves the cognizant mind from a painfully dense confusion. Smelling +about equally of eternal wash-day, casual cow-shed, and passing +feather-bed, it sustains a lank, middle-aged, gristly man to come out +at the same hour every day and grunt unintelligibly at the +stage-driver, an expressionless boy in a bandless straw-hat and no +shoes to stare blankly from the doorway at the same old pole-horse he +has mechanically thus inspected from infancy, and one speckled hen of +mature years to poise observingly on single leg at the head of the +shapeless black dog asleep at the sunny end of the low wooden stoop. It +is the one rural spot on earth where a call for fresh eggs evokes +remonstrative and chronic denial; where chickens for dinner are sternly +discredited as mere freaks of legendary romance, and an order for a +glass of new milk is incredulously answered by a tumblerful of water +which tastes of whitewash-brush. Whosoever sleeps there of a night +shall be crowded by walls which rub off into a faint feather-bed of the +flavor and consistency of geese used whole, and have for his feverish +breakfast in the morning a version of broiled ham as racy of attic-salt +as the rasher of BACON'S essays. And to him who pays his bill there, +ere he straggles weakly forth to repair his shattered health by +frenzied flight, shall be given in change such hoary ten-cent shreds of +former postal currency as he has not hitherto deemed credible, sticking +together in inextricable conglomeration by such fragments of +fish-scales as he never before believed could be gathered by handled +small-money from palms not sufficiently washed after piscatorial +diversion.</p> + <p>It was in at a country hotel, then, that the young Southern +pedestrian turned for temporary rest and a meal, and pitiless was the +cross-examination instituted by the inevitable lank, middle-aged +gristly man, before he could reconcile it with his duty as a cautious +public character to reveal the treasures of the larder. Those bumps on +the head, that swollen eye, and nose, came—did they?—from swinging this +here club for exercise. Well, he wanted to know, now! People generally +used two of the clubs at once—did they?—but one was enough for a +beginner. Well, he <i>wanted</i> to know, now! Could he supply a +couple of poached eggs and a cup of milk? No, young man; but a slice of +corned pork and a bowl of tea were within the resources of the +establishment.</p> + <p>When at length upon the road again, the bruised youth resolved +to follow a cattle-track "across lots," for the greater space in which +to exercise with his Indian club as he walked. Like any other novice in +the practice, he could not divest his mind of the impression, that the +frightful thumps he continually received, in twirling the merciless +thing around and behind his devoted head, were due to some kind of +crowding influence from the boundaries on either side the way, and it +was to gain relief from such damaging contraction of area that he left +the highway for the wider wintry fields. Going onward in these latter +at an irregular pace; sometimes momentarily stunned into a rangy +stagger by a sounding blow on the cerebrum or the cerebellum; and, +again, irritated almost to a run by contusion of shoulder-blade or +funny-bone; he finally became aware that two men were following him +through the lots, and that with a closeness of attention indicating +more than common interest. To the perception of his keenly sensitive +Southern nature they at once became ribald Yankee vandals, hoping for +unseemly amusement from the detection of some awkwardness in the +Indian-club-play of a defeated but not conquered Southern Gentleman; +and, in the haughty sectional pride of his contemptuous soul, he +indignantly determined to show not the least consciousness of their +disrespectful observation. Twirling the club around and around his +battered head with increasing velocity, he smiled scornfully to +himself, nor deigned a single backward glance at the one of his two +followers who approached more rapidly than the other. He heard the +hindermost say to the foremost, "Leave him alone, I tell you, and he'll +knock himself down in a minute," and, in a passionately reckless effort +of sheer bravado to catch the club from one hand with the other while +it yet circled swiftly over his skull, he accidentally brought the +ungovernable weapon into tremendous contact with the top of his head, +and dashed himself violently to the earth.</p> + <p>"Didn't I tell you he'd do it?" cried the hindermost of the +two strangers, coming up; while the other coolly seated himself upon +the prostrated victim. "These here Indian clubs always throw a man if +he ain't got muscle in his arms; and this here little Chivalry has got +arms like a couple of canes."</p> + <p>"Arise from me instantly, fellow. You're sitting upon my +breast-pin," exclaimed MONTGOMERY to the person sitting upon him.</p> + <p>They suffered him to regain his feet, which he did with +extreme hauteur, and surveyed his bumped head and swollen countenance +with undisguised wonder.</p> + <p>"How dare you treat a Southerner in this way?" continued the +young man, his head aching inexpressibly. "I thought the war was over +long ago. If money is your object, seek out a citizen of some other +section than mine; for the South is out of funds just now, owing to the +military outrages of Northern scorpions."</p> + <p>"We're constables, Mr. PENDRAGON," was the reply, "and it is +our duty to take you back to the main road, where a couple of your +friends are waiting for you."</p> + <p>Staring from one to the other in speechless wonder at what +this fresh outrage upon the down-trodden South could mean, MONTGOMERY +allowed them to replace his Indian club in his hand, and conduct him +back to the public road; where, to his increased bewilderment, he found +Gospeler SIMPSON and the Ritualistic organist.</p> + <p>"What is the matter, gentlemen?" he asked, in great agitation: +"must I take the oath of Loyalty; or am I required by Yankee +philanthropy to marry a negress?"</p> + <p>At the sound of his voice, Mr. BUMSTEAD left the shoulder of +Mr. SIMPSON, upon which he had been leaning with great weight, and, +coming forward in three long skips, deliberately wound his right hand +in the speaker's neck-tie.</p> + <p>"Where are those nephews—where's that umbrella?" demanded the +organist, with considerable ferocity.</p> + <p>"Nephews!—umbrella!" gasped the other.</p> + <p>"The EDWINS—bone handle," explained Mr. BUMSTEAD, lurching +towards his captive.</p> + <p>"Mr. MONTGOMERY," interposed the Gospeler, sadly, Mr. DROOD +went out with you last night, late, from his estimable uncle's +lodgings, and has not been seen since. Where is he?"</p> + <p>"He went back into the house again, sir, after I had walked +him up and down the road a few times."</p> + <p>"Well, then, where's that umbrella?" roared the organist, who +seemed quite beside himself with grief and excitement.</p> + <p>"Mr. BUMSTEAD, pray be more calm," implored the Reverend +OCTAVIUS.</p> + <p>"Mr. MONTGOMERY, this agitated gentleman's nephew has been +mysteriously missing ever since he went out with you at midnight: also +an alpaca umbrella."</p> + <p>"Upon my honor, I know nothing of either," ejaculated the +unhappy Southerner.</p> + <p>Mr. BUMSTEAD, still holding him by the neck-tie, cast a fiery +and unsettled glance around at nothing in particular; then ground his +teeth audibly, and scowled.</p> + <p>"My boy's missing!" he said, hissingly.—"Y'understand?—he's +missing.—I must insist upon searching the prisoner."</p> + <p>In the presence of Gospeler and constables, and loftily +regardless alike of their startled wonder and the young man's protests, +the maddened uncle of the lost DROOD deliberately examined all the +captive's pockets in succession. In one of them was a penknife, which, +after thoughtfully trying it upon his pink nails, he abstractedly +placed in his own pocket. Searching next the overwhelmed Southerner's +travelling-satchel, he found in it an apple, which he first eyed with +marked suspicion, and then bit largely into, as though half expecting +to find in it some traces of his nephew.</p> + <p>"I'll keep this suspicious fruit," he remarked, with a hollow +laugh; and, bearing unreservedly upon the nearer arm of the hapless +MONTGOMERY, and eating audibly as he surged onward, he started on the +return march for Bumsteadville.</p> + <p>Not a word more was spoken until, after a cool Christmas +stroll of about eight and a quarter miles, the whole party stood before +Judge SWEENEY in the house of the latter. There, when the story had +been sorrowfully repeated by the Gospeler, Mr. BUMSTEAD exhibited the +core of the apple, and tickled the magistrate almost into hysterics by +whispering very closely in his ear, that it was a core curiously +similar to that of the last apple eaten by his nephew; and, having been +found in an apple from the prisoner's satchel, might be useful in +evidence. Judge SWEENEY wished to know if Mr. PENDRAGON had any +political relations, or could influence any votes? and, upon being +answered in the negative, eyed the young man sternly, and said that +appearances were decidedly against him. He could not exactly commit him +to jail without accusation, although the apple-core and his political +unimportance subjected him to grave suspicion: but he should hold the +Gospeler responsible for the youth's appearance at any time when his +presence should be required. Mr. BUMSTEAD, whose eyes were becoming +very glassy, then suggested that a handbill should be at once printed +and circulated, to the effect that there had been Lost, or Stolen, two +Black Alpaca Nephews, about 5 feet 8 inches high, with a bone handle, +light eyes and hair, and whalebone ribs; and that if the said EDWIN +would return, with a brass ferule slightly worn, the finder should +receive earnest thanks, and be seen safely to his home by J. BUMSTEAD. +Mr. Gospeler SIMPSON and Judge SWEENEY agreed that a handbill should be +issued: but thought it might confuse the public mind if the missing +nephew and the lost umbrella were not kept separate.</p> + <p>"Has either 'f you gen'l'men ever been 'n Uncle?" asked the +Ritualistic organist, with dark intensity.</p> + <p>They shook their heads.</p> + <p>"<i>Then,</i>" said Mr. BUMSTEAD, with great force,—"THEN, +gen'l'men, you-knownor-wahritis-to-lose-'n-umbrella!"</p> + <p>Before they could decide in their weaker minds what the +immediate connection was, he had left them, at a sharp slant, in great +intellectual disturbance, and was passing out through the entry-way +with both his hands against the wall.</p> + <p>Early next morning, while young Mr. PENDRAGON was locked in +his room, startled and wretched, the inconsolable uncle of EDWIN DROOD +was energetically ransacking every part of Bumsteadville for the +missing man. House after house he visited, like some unholy inspector: +peering up chimneys, prodding under carpets, and staying a long time in +cellars where there was cider. Not a bit of paper or cloth blew along +the turnpike but he eagerly picked it up, searched in it with the most +anxious care, and finally placed it in his hat. Going to the Pond, with +a borrowed hatchet, he cut a bole in the thick ice, lost the hatchet, +and, after bathing his head in the water, declared that his alpaca +nephew was not there. Finding an antique flask in one of his pockets, +he gradually removed all the liquid contents therefrom with a tubular +straw, but still could discern no traces of EDWIN DROOD. All the +live-long day he prosecuted his researches, to the great discomposure +of the populace: and, with whitewash all over the back of his coat, and +very dingy hands, had just seated himself at his own fireside in the +evening, when Mr. DIBBLE came in.</p> + <p>"This is a strange disappearance," said Mr. DIBBLE.</p> + <p>"And it was good as new," groaned the organist, with but one +eye open.</p> + <p>"Almost new!—<i>what</i> was?"</p> + <p>"Th'umbrella."</p> + <p>"Mr. BUMSTEAD," returned the old man, coldly, "I am not +talking of an umbrella, but of Mr. EDWIN."</p> + <p>"Yesh, I know," said the uncle.

"I'm not at all +thirsty. But there is something more to tell you. At the last meeting +of my ward and your nephew—just before your dinner here,—they concluded +to break their engagement of marriage, for certain good reasons, and +thenceforth be only brother and sister to each other."</p> + <p>Starting forward in his chair, with partially opened eyes, the +white-washed and dingy Mr. BUMSTEAD managed to get off his hat, +covering himself with a bandanna handkerchief and innumerable old +pieces of paper and cloth, as he did so, from head to foot; made a +feeble effort to throw it at the aged lawyer; and then, chair and all, +tumbled forward with a crash to the rug, where he lay in a refreshing +sleep.</p> + <p>(<i>To be Continued.</i>)</p> + <br> + <hr style="width: 45%;"> <br> + <p><b>CHINCAPIN AT LONG BRANCH.</b></p> + <p>A QUAKER friend of mine once observed that he loved the Ocean +for its Broad Brim.

The Race Track, Grand Stand, &c., are all that the vivid +fancy of a PUNCHINELLO can paint them. The bathing costumes! who can do +justice to them and their lovely wearers? Some time ago, (as I am +informed,) a lady made her appearance on the beach as a Nereid. Did you +Ne'er read of the Nereids, Mr. PUNCHINELLO? If you have, you are aware +that they were the Sea Nymphs of the Ancients, in other words the Old +Maids of the Sea, who never got married, and frequently played Scaly +tricks on Mariners. The Nereid referred to was arrayed in pea green and +spangles, with green tresses, which is very well known to be the +correct costume of a mermaid of antiquity, copied from the latest Paris +fashions. This Spritely lady was, however, unprovided with a tail, +which was Unmermaidenlike in the Extreme.</p> + <p>You know how brilliant the Hops are, so I will Skip them. One +thing, however, is worth noting. At some of the Hotels they have a +Spread on the carpet before the dancing begins, as well as a supper +afterwards.

Emotions so fierce in their +sorrow, that they left not a single wiggle in his tail: his hopes were +crushed, his expectations ruined. In Canto II I have pictured the +musical propensities of the genus <i>Cat</i>, the wandering vagaries +of the moon-dane cow, the purp's withering contempt thereat, and the +frisky evolutions of the dish which rolled off on its ear. In Canto III +I have portrayed the "tender passion" and its melancholy result on the +hill-side—a fitting illustration of the fact that the course of true +love never did run smooth, especially if there were big rocks to knock +one's toes against. And now, in Canto IV, I am about to portray +childish innocence in the pursuit of bliss.</p> + <p>All things are graded, with the trifling exception of many of +our streets. But who cares about this grade of bliss? I don't, and I am +sure the poet didn't when he sang the lines at the head of this +chapter. Bliss is graded. The old man in Wall street, with white hair +and white necktie, and smooth polished tongue, has his degree of bliss +when he is engaged in throwing stones at the Apes in the tree-top, that +they may return the throw with gold cocoa-nuts. The young lady has her +degree of bliss when her waist is entwined by "Dear CHAWLES," who +soothes her troubled spirit with the tender melody of "Red as a beet is +she,"— alluding to her would-be rival. The nice young man has his +degree of bliss when he chews a tooth-pick—poor goose! (not the nice +young man, but the fowl which gave the quill,)—and is given a smile by +a dark-eyed female in a passing stage.</p> + <p>And Infantdom has—But our poet beautifully illustrates this in +the stanzas we have quoted.</p> + <div style="margin-left: 40px;"> <span style="margin-left: 1em;">"Little +JACK HORNER,"</span> </div> + <p>says he, with the easy grace of one perfectly familiar with +the subject he is to treat; neither frightened at its immensity, nor +putting himself in the way of a dilemma by stopping to examine details. +Little JACK was the poet's pet because he was the afflicted one of the +household, and poets know full well how to sympathize with affliction. +Perhaps JACK sat down to dinner next to cross-eyed SUSAN ANN, "by +Brother BILL'S gal," and perhaps JACK'S nose was tickled by a little +blue-bottle, and that he sneezed right into her soup-plate; and then he +was hurried from the table for blowing a fly into SUSAN ANN'S soup! He +would lose his dinner. His napkin would miss its accustomed wash!</p> + <p>"Shall it be thus? No!" says the poet. "Dry your tears, little +JACK, go to the well-stocked pantry, my boy, and get something to eat. +The jury will not convict you of stealing, for their verdict will be +that you did the deed in self-defence."

How he +smacks his lips, and thinks how nice it would be if he <i>could</i> +wish to give SUSAN ANN a taste! But he can't.</p> + <p>Suddenly an idea strikes JACK. He has heard Uncle TOM talk of +a big war between Frawnce and Proossia, and all about the soldiers and +the cannon, and the big noises. Little JACK will make war on the pie. +He will be Frawnce, the pie will be Proossia. He sets it squarely +before him on the floor; rolls up his sleeves, may be; his eyes sparkle +with determination; he finds the most vulnerable spot in the crust; he +makes one bold dive with his thumb, it goes down, down down, crushing +everything before it; it feels something; renewed vigor flows through +JACK'S veins, and gives him new strength for the attack; victory crowns +him; and, in the words of the poet,</p> + <div style="margin-left: 40px;"> <span style="margin-left: 1em;">"He +pulled out a plum,</span><br> + <span style="margin-left: 1em;">And said, 'What a brave boy am +I.'"</span> </div> + <p>—Now he is happy.

So hot +that no allusions to Fahrenheit would give an idea of the tremendous +preponderance of caloric in the atmosphere. The trip was full of +discomforts, and there was great danger, at one time, that the train +would arrive at Niagara with a load of desiccated bodies. Of course the +water all boiled away in the engine-tanks, causing endless stoppages; +and of course the hot sun, pouring directly upon the roof of the cars, +caused the boards thereof to curl up and twist about in such fantastic +fashion, that they afforded no protection whatever to the passengers, +who were obliged to resort to sunshades and umbrellas, or get under the +seats. Added to this were the facts that the ice-water in the coolers +scalded the mouth; the brass-work on the seats blistered the hands; and +the empty stoves, almost red-hot from their exposure to the sun, +superheated the cars to a degree that was maddening. Added to these was +the fact that the intense heat expanded the rails until they were +several miles longer than usual, and thus the passengers suffered the +tortures of the transit for an increased length of time.</p> + <p>When, at last, Mr. P. was conveyed, in a stifling hack, (the +fare had risen, under the unusual circumstances, about one hundred and +ten degrees,) to a stifling little room under the hot roof of an hotel +exposed to the sun on every side, and had taken an extempore Russian +bath while changing his linen, and had partaken of a hot dinner, he +might have been excused for saying that he would like to cool off a +little.</p> + <p>Inquiring if there was any stream of water convenient, he was +directed to the river Niagara, which runs hard by the hotel.</p> + <p>Reaching the banks of the river, Mr. P. was very much pleased +by the prospect. There is a considerable depression in the bed of the +stream at one point, and the water runs over the rocks quite rapidly, +carrying with it such leaves, twigs, steamboats or other objects that +may be floating upon its surface.</p> + <img src="images/06a.jpg" align="left" alt=""> + <p>Mr. P. immediately perceived the advantages of this condition +of things to a a gentleman suffering from the heat, and procuring a +boat, he rowed close to the foot of a cascade formed by the inclination +in the bed of the river, and throwing out his anchor, revelled in the +luxury of the cool spray and the refreshing sound of the rushing water.</p> + <p>Does not this look cool?</p> + <p>When sufficiently refreshed, Mr. P. rowed to shore, feeling +like another man. With the greatest confidence in its merits, he +recommends his plan to those who may be suffering from the summer heat.</p> + <p>After breakfast the next morning, Mr. P. set out to see what +he could see. He did not engage the services of any hackman or +professional guide.</p> + <p>He had heard of their extortions, and determined to submit to +nothing of the kind. He intended relying entirely upon himself. He +walked some distance without meeting with any of the places of interest +of which he had heard so much.</p> + <p>Meeting at length with a respectable elderly gentleman, Mr. P. +inquired of him the way to the Cave of the Winds.</p> + <img src="images/06b.jpg" align="right" alt=""> + <p>"The Cave of the Winds? Ah!" said this worthy person. "You +turn to your left here, sir—ah! and then you keep on for about—ah! half +a mile, and you will—ah! see a gate—ah! Behind that is a man and the +cave—ah!"</p> + <p>Mr. P. thanked him and was proceeding on his way, when the +worthy citizen touched him on the arm, saying:</p> + <p>"Twenty-one dollars, if you please, sir."</p> + <p>"Twenty-one dev----developments!" cried Mr. P; "Why, what do +you mean?"</p> + <p>"Information, sir; fifty cents a word; forty-two words; +twenty-one dollars."</p> + <p>It must not be supposed that Mr. P. submitted tamely to this +outrage, but after a long dispute, it was agreed to refer the matter to +the arbitration of three of the principal citizens. They promptly +decided that the charge was just and must be paid, but, owing to Mr. +P.'s earnest protestations, they agreed to throw out the "ahs," as +being of doubtful value as information. The sum thus saved to Mr. P. +exactly paid for drinks for the party.</p> + <p>Mr. P. now very sensibly concluded that it was about time to +leave, if his editors, his printers, and the employés in his +pun-factory were to expect any pay that week, and so he set out for +home in the evening, taking a shortcut by the way of Montreal.</p> + <p>He thought that a day might be very profitably spent here, +especially if he could fall in with any of the French-Canadians, of +whose peculiarities he had heard so much. The study of human nature was +always Mr. P.'s particular forte.</p> + <p>On the morning of his arrival, Mr. P. met, in the dining-room +of the hotel, a gentleman who was unmistakably a Frenchman, and being +in Canada, was probably Canadian.

It is true that +everybody has seen the same thing one hundred and fifty times, but this +description of indulgence appears to grow by what it feeds upon, and +the fascinated victim watches the operation of the workers with a +gratification which knows no abatement. The usual formula gone through +upon these occasions is as follows:</p> + <p>Citizen approaches the scene of interest, and sees crowds of +spectators upon each side; he glances at the workmen, and, after taking +stock of both them and the overseer, proceeds to read the opinion of +his fellows in their faces, after which he settles down in right +earnest with his hands in his pockets for a prolonged stare. This +latter may continue for periods varying from ten minutes to an hour and +three quarters, according to inclination or opportunity.</p> + <p>If the spectator is a man of business, it is just possible +that he may content himself with measuring the size of the blocks with +his eye, and then pass on, content to know that he, as one out of many +taxpayers, is getting the value of what they are called on to pay for. +But with the mass of the onlookers, the pouring of the hot pitch into +the gravelled interstices is watched with a satisfaction ever new, like +that bestowed in the pantomime upon the application by the clown of the +red-hot poker.</p> + <p>There is also the pleasure of seeing others at hard work, and +the indulgence of everybody's belief (which is common to all present,) +that he or she could suggest an improvement upon the work proceeding, +and the manner of doing it.

The great West has long been famous +for the loose, untrammelled freedom with which its inhabitants treat +everything and everybody. Breadth, no less than length, is a striking +feature of Western settlements, and that this element is conspicuous in +the journalism of those singular abodes, no less than in the social +life of their inhabitants, generally, is evidenced in the following +advertisement cut from "<i>The Times</i>"—a paper published at +Leavenworth, Kansas:</p> + <p>"NOTICE TO DRIVERS OF FAST STOCK.—Hold your horses and do not +drive so fast. All gay and festive cusses caught driving faster than +ordinary gait in the city, will be brought before Judge Vaughan, for +instance--the fine is $20.</p> + <p>H. A. ROBERTSON, City Marshal."</p> + <p>The City Marshal of Leavenworth is clearly a pot-companion of +the first (whiskey and) water. He declines to address his +fellow-citizens in the commonplace terms usually recognised in more +prosaic communities. To adopt his own style of phraseology, ROBERTSON +is clearly a "gay and festive cuss." He is a specimen brick from +Kansas, and doubtless always carries one in his hat. The expression +"ordinary gait," as applied to driving in Kansas, where everybody owns +"fast stock," is rather equivocal in these quieter latitudes to be +sure, but we may guess that, at Leavenworth, a man who rides or drives +at a pace of twenty miles an hour, is liable, "for instance," to a fine +of $20, or just one dollar per mile. Kansas maybe a very nice place to +live in, for some people, but we would hardly recommend Mr. ROBERT +BONNER to emigrate thither, and so risk the probability of being +advertised as a "gay and festive cuss."</p> + <br> + <hr style="width: 45%;"> <br> + <p><b>SHIP AHOY!</b></p> + <p>Of all public performers, there are none who "draw" better +than the gymnasts who risk their necks by attempting hazardous feats. +The fool who attaches himself by the heels to the car of an ascending +balloon is sure to have thousands of feeble-minded females waving +handkerchiefs at him. BLONDIN, the great French tomfool, brought more +people to Niagara Falls to see him, possibly, add a new Fall to the +prospect, than ever the Falls themselves did. And when another donkey +announces that he is going to stand upon his head on the point of a +church spire, that church is sure to be thronged—outside. These +performances, and all of their sort, should be made punishable, and +will probably be so when a hundred or two performers shall have been +killed, in addition to those who have already suffered.</p> + <p>Not nearly so exciting as performances of the kind referred +to, though, perhaps, quite as rash, are the ocean voyages occasionally +essayed by tiny, toy ships. One of these—the <i>Red, White and Blue</i>—is +announced as about to start upon a "voyage round the world." We wish +her our best wishes, and hope she may get round in the roundest way and +time. One of her first stopping places, though, as we see, is Martha's +Vineyard. Our advice to the skipper of the toy ship, is to go no +further than that delightful haven of rest.

The purchase was made find G.F.F.F.S. +walked towards her palatial paternal mansion. She felt slightly timid, +for, as she looked at the heavens, she saw that ARCTURUS, who had been +playing tag with CASTOR and POLLUX all the evening, had reached hunk, +the Great Bear.

"Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be +used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who +agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few +things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works +even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See +paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement +and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation" +or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the +collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an +individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are +located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from +copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative +works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg +are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project +Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by +freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of +this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with +the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by +keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project +Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others. + +1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern +what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in +a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check +the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement +before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or +creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project +Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning +the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United +States. + +1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg: + +1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate +access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently +whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the +phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project +Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed, +copied or distributed: + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or +re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included +with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org + +1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived +from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is +posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied +and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees +or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work +with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the +work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 +through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the +Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or +1.E.9. + +1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted +with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution +must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional +terms imposed by the copyright holder.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable +effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread +public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm +collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain +"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or +corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual +property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a +computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by +your equipment. + +1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right +of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project +Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all +liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal +fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT +LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE +PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE +TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE +LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR +INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH +DAMAGE. + +1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a +defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can +receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a +written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you +received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with +your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with +the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a +refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity +providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to +receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy +is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further +opportunities to fix the problem. + +1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth +in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS," WITH NO OTHER +WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. + +1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied +warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. +If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the +law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be +interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by +the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any +provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions. + +1.F.6.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at +809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email +business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact +information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official +page at https://pglaf.org + +For additional contact information: + Dr. Gregory B. Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + http://www.ibiblio.org/gutenberg/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/01.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/01.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..b33657f --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/01.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/01a.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/01a.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..3ef75f9 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/01a.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/05.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/05.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..983cf8c --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/05.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/06a.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/06a.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..6d8f0ad --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/06a.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/06b.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/06b.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..3b5a9ea --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/06b.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/07.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/07.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..20ac3e0 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/07.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/08.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/08.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..f389bc0 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/08.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/09.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/09.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..64c5434 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/09.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/12.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/12.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..b96f26d --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/12.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/13.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/13.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..0d7f2bc --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/13.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/13a.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/13a.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d32fd74 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/13a.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/14.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/14.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d126301 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/14.jpg diff --git a/old/10019-h/images/16.jpg b/old/10019-h/images/16.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..e150acd --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10019-h/images/16.jpg |
