Saturday he told Inspector Stark that a large portion of the money he had taken from his uncle was hidden in the woods near Newmarket, a town about thirty miles north of Toronto, between here and Bracebridge, where, it will be remembered, Drumm was married. He offered to conduct the detectives to the spot. Detectives, accompanied by Drumm, searched the woods for several hours iu vain, but at last Drumm lighted upon the treasure. It was in two tin cans, the lids of which had been securely soldered over, and contained about $31,500 in gold. On the way back Drumm told the officers that he had hidden more money in a field in the vicinity of North Toronto, and the police drove there with Drumm, and after digging around in the dark for some time they came across another tin box containing $3,570. The amount of money stolen was $58,000. Drumm's uncle is jubilant over the recovery of the money and offered to go bail for his nephew. Drumm was admitted to bail today. Whore He Had Hidden S3B.OOO.

Having visited your historical city, which we desired to see because it was the terminus of the most famous road of the ages—the Roman Appian Way—and for its mighty fortress overshadowing a city which even Hannibal's hosts could not thunder down, we must to-morrow morning leave your harbor, and, after touching at Athens and Corinth, voyage about the Mediterranean to Alexandria, Egypt. I have been reading this morning in my New Testament of a Mediterranean voyage in an Alexandrian ship. It was this very month of November. The vessel was lying in a port not very far from here. On board that vessel were two distinguished passengers—one Josephus, the historian, as we have strong reasons to believe; the other, a convict, one Paul by name, who was going to prison for upsetting things, or, as they termed it, "turning the world upside down." This convict had gained the confidenoe of the captain; ipdoed, I think that Paul knewalmost as much about the sea as did the captain. He had been shipwrecked three times already; he had dwelt much of his life amidst capstans, and yard-arms, and cables, and storms; and he knew what he was talking about. Seeing the equinoctial storm was coming, and perhaps noticing something unseaworthy in the vessel, he advised the captain to stay in the harbor. But I hear the captain and the first mate talking together. They say: "We cannot afford to take the advice of this landsman, and he a minister. He may be able to preach very well, but I don't" Believe he knows a marline-spike from a luff tackle. All aboard I Cast off! Shift the helm for headway! Who fears the Mediterranean!" They bad gone only a little way out when a whirlwind, called Euroclydon, made the torn sail its turban, shook the inast as you would brandish a spear, and tossed the hulk into the heavens. Overboard with the cargo! It is all washed with salt-water, and worthless now; and there are no marine insurance companies. All hands ahoy, and out with the anchors! New York, Nov. 18.—The coffee market li excited. General dealers experience considerable difficulty in meeting engagements. It is thought that the peaceful departure of Dom Pedro and the unresis'ance of the Imperialists will soon have a tranquilizing effect on trade. President—Dodora da Fonesca.

Chicago, Nov. 18.—Mrs. Lucy Farsons entertained the members of the Arbeiter Bund who gathered at Turner hall with a very lurid address. She abused the police in terms that have become familiar from frequent repetition, referred to the red flag as the only banner that would lead to freedom, and ventured intb the realm of theology as she spoke of her dead husband and child. "Do you suppose they kissed each other in the beautifully described hereafter?" she said. "Bah I Don't be deceived. 80 called Christians will tell you such things. What we want are homes in this world and let God, Christ and all religious functionaries take care of themselves. This is the teaching of anarchy and as such it will live. The principles of anarchy will prevail even though it takes blood to make them supreme." Mrs. Parsons was followed by Moritz Schiltz, of New York, who spoke in German. His talk was semi-political in its character. He said the world at large underestimated the number of Anarchists by half, and ail they needed to secure certain success was united action. Lucy Parsons Talks of Blood. From other sources the ex-congressman learned, during his visit to Berlin, that the Germans were beginning to manifest decided impatience at the delay (which thej construed into indifference to Samoan affairs and hostility to the omiuissioners from thC United States) shown by Mr. Harrison and his cabinet. They do not understand why it is necessary to await action by the senate. It was also said in Berlin social circles that Mr. Blaino had failed utterly to induce the president to have the matter considered bj the full cabiuet. Germany Very Impatient.

"It is resolved that high license is the only feasible and hopeful moans of exterminating the deluge of vices and crimes of which drunkenness is the fruitful sourco. The licenso should be put so high as to make it practically prohibitory as regards the multitude of low saloons. Certain restrictions should be enacted as to the time and place of sale.

The sea monsters snort in the foam and the billows clap their hands in glee of destruction. In the lull of the storm I hear a chain clank. It is the chain of the great apostle as he walks the deck, or holds fast to the rigging amid the lurching of the ship, the spray dripping from his long beard as he cries out to the crew: "Now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship. For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee."

Standing on the lookout, the man peers into the darkness, and, by a flash of lightning, sees the long white line of the breakers, and knows they must be coming near to some country, and fears that iu a few moments the vessel will bo shivered on the rocks. The ship flies like chaff in the tornado. They drop the sounding line, and by the light of the lantern they see it is twenty fathoms. Speeding along a little farther, they drop the line again, and by the light of the lantern they see it is fifteen fathoms. Two hundred and seventy-six souls within a few feet of awful shipwreck! The managers of the vessel, pretending they want to look over the side of the ship and undergird it, get into the small boat, expecting in it to escape; but Paul sees through the sham, and he tells them that if they go off in the boat it will be the death of them. The vessel strikes! The planks spring! The timbers crack! The vessel parts in the thundering surge! Oh, what wild struggling for life! Here they leap from plank to plank. Here they go under as if they would never rise, but, catching hold of a timber, come floating on it to the beach. Here, strong swimmers spread their arms through the waves until their chins plow the sand, and they rise up and wring out their wet locks on the beach.

I learn from this subject: Commissioner Mason recommends legislation which will remove the opportunity for evading the iaw taxing fractional parts of a gallon of distilled spirits. First, that those who get us into trouble will not stay to help us out. These shipmen got Paul out of Fair Havens into the storm; but as soon as the tempest dropped upon them they wanted to go off in the small boat, caring nothing for what) became of Paul and the passengers. Ah me I human nature is the same in all ages. They who get us into trouble never stop to help us out. They who tempt that young man into a life of dissipation will be the first to laugh at his imbecility, and to drop him out of decent society. Gamblers always make fun of the losses of gamblers. They who tempt you into the contest with fists, saying: "I will back you," will be the first to run. Look over all the predicaments of your life, and count the names of those who have got you into those predicaments, and tell me the name of one who ever helped you out. They were glad enough to get you out from Fair Havens, but when, with damaged rigging, you tried to get into harbor, did they hold for you a plank or throw you a rope? Not one. Satan has got thousands of men into trouble, but he never got one out. He led them into theft, but he would not hide the1 goods or bail out the defendant. The spider shows the fly the way over the gossamer bridge into the cobweb, but it never shows the fly the way out of the cobweb over the gossamer bridge. I think that there were plenty of fast young men to help, the prodigal spend his money; but when he had wasted his substance in riotous living, they let him go to the swine pastures, while they betook themselves to some other new comer. They who took Paul out of Fair Havens will be of no help to him when he gets into the breakers of Melita. Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 18.—At the First Presbyterian church Rev. O. P.
