SAVED BY THE DOCTOR.

TltF. episode I am going to relate occurred not far from the township of Horsham, Vietorin, Australia. Where the exact locality is I havo no intention of divulging; but if any of my readers arc acquainted with the part of the world referred to, they will remember that thoro exist ono or two large streams within the wide radius I have named. Beside ono of these rivers there was standing, about twenty years ago, a hut, which was known at tho Homestead as the Deep Water Station, and it was hore my lot placed me as a hutkeopcr. I lived nt the Deep Water Station for two years. ' I remember I wns sitting at the hut {the Deep Water Hut) one summor afternoon, looking for the coming of' Long Mat,' The sun was passing away blood red behind a range of dim blue hills; long shadows wero fast spreading; the deep water hole had lost tlio light; the hills behind the river were just tipped with a crimson glory, and stars seemeil dropping like silvor specks on the paling sky. Long Mat, the shepherd, was later than usual.

The darkness had not, quite fallen before I recognised the bleating of tho Hock in tho distance, ami soon after tho whito ilocces of the sheen slowly appeared from out the sombre shadows of the trees. I had just walked inside the hut to prepare supper, when the quick, muHlcd fall of a horse's feet became audible. I know tho canter well, und came to to the poor to await the arrival of Mr S , tho owner of tho sta tion. He galloped up to the hut, with a choer fill 'Good evening, Bill;' and as usual came inside to ask if 1 wanted anything, and to-light his pipe. ' I can't stay long with you this timo, Bill,'hc said pleasantly, but with a littlo anxiety ; ' the black fellows aro about again, I hope your gun is in ordor. Do you want any powder or lead '!' f _"' Wo have quite enough,' I replied, 'both Mat and myself; but there's no bullets; I'll run them to-morrow. Mat's rather late this evening; but the Hooks arc not far oil': they'll lie homo in a quarter of nn hour ; Isaw them puss tho belt beforo you came.'

At this in. .ant- the shadow of a man darkened the door, and Mat otitctcd.

'Good evening,' he said quietly to Mr S and myself. 'The sheep's fecdin' home all right, sir, but'there's a few missin'. One of my marked ewes is gone, audi can't see two of the crawlers.'

'You'llpick them up .to-morrow, Mat,' replied the strong, pleasant voice of the squatter, ' Bill says you've enough powder and lead. Tho blacks are about; do you know that?'

Without waiting for an answer Mr S procccdi d to undo his horse and was about to mount when Mat (who wns an Amorican) said, ' I guess you had better stop to-night, sir,' 'Why?' 1 Injuns is close tti>. One of the sheep I spoke of was speared.' ' I. heard there were black fellows about,' said Mr S , delaying to mount; 'but the ride is safe enough; I've got my ritlo with mo.' 'They're too close,'responded tho shep herd, after filling a pannikin of ton, and con trary to his custom, standing his gun against the table. We looked at him inquiringly. He kept his eyes wandering over and around the Hocks'while he explained. ' Wall, you see, sir, after scein' the spear wound on the, crawler, I looked aboutmc pretty sharp, hut couldn't sec nothin' till I was loavin' tho bolt there, when I sighted one of the var mints wrigglin' through tho grass like a snake. I was goin' to give him a pill, but I saw another wrigglin' in his wako, and then another and,' continued tho narrator, with something like a glow of expectation, ' they ain't far off now, I reckon.' Ho had scarcely uttered tho words when he lifted both hands and struck Mr S full ou the chest with enough forco to drive him to tho extreme end of the hut. At tho same instant, a spear whizzed through tho open doorway, and quivering in the slabs behind.

' By gum More remarks were drowned by a loud quivering snort from the poor horso; a moment after, and ho rolled heavily across the hut door, completely blocking up tho entrance.

Mat muttered away : 'First rate for us coons! Yc'd better bar the door, Bill 1 Doctor 1 Doctor I Dootor 1 Pst 1 Pst 1 Hero lad.', Tho dog leaped on the shepherd. 'By gum,'he said, ' I thought ho was out side.'

By this time Mr S , was coolly recon noitoring through tho loopholes, 'He had let down tho window, and was preparing for action as unconcernedly as the shepherd. These quiet bravo men inspired mo with confidence, and I remember thinking, as I threw wator on the fire so as to extinguish the light, that the black' fellows had mot with their match. By this timo the moon was up and the light was gradually growing on the landscape, At first wc could discern the outlines of tho trees, and then, as tho night gathered, tho--white-seared grass be tween the shadows. There was a long time of silence. The squatter and. Mat were like two statues, arid notwithstanding the quiet breathing of the dog and the croaking of the frogs along tho river, thore seemed to be a frightful significance in the silence that was brooding above these sounds. Every instant I was expecting a ; rush from the outside, but there was not a sight or sound to betray the presence of any enemy. The sheep were camping quietly round the hurdles. Silence—tho oright moon—tho white fleeces mingling with the colour of the grass—the still shadows of the treos^—tho far black forest—the spectral tracery of the branches in the moonlight. The silence was terrible. One of tho out side wethers rose and walked forward a few yards, then commenced stamping quickly on the ground. _ 'Darnmy eyes,' said Mat, for the first time breaking silence, ' if de " Ole Parson ain't sighted ono of the niggers 1' The 'Ole Parson' was a patriarch wether that was afflicted with the footrot, and usually fed on his knees.

'So ho has, and by gum there's a crowd ; the whole tribe hcv come to visit. Not enough in shade, boss," concluded Mat, after an interval, and in a hard, whispering tone.

The next moment the first report rang out into myriad echoes. A shrill deat shout followed, as the dark figure of a ma

leaped with a sudden force fnm his ambush and fell prone, gurgling out blood and broken words. ■~ ,

'Now, boss,' said Mat, looking out, but Btiil charging; 'fifty yards to the right of the hurdle.'

Boss (Mr S——) changed the position of his gun and fired. ihe human figure seemed to sink down so quickly, so calmly, so helplessly, that/I felt a strange thrill of pity. • ' He's fixed, as safe as houses; let's physic another or two, and maybe they'll make tracks,' again muttered tho shepherd, in a tooo of supprossod glee. ' Cook, why the devil don't you shoot? Squint round that block to tho right of the wattle.' i < ■, fl Looking in the direction indicated by Mat, whose eyes seemed everywhere, I saw, tho figure of a man partially visible against tlie ground. Ho was evidently sheltering: himself from the other two guns, but owing to my silence hitherto, he must havo becni of opinion that tho portion of thO hut whoro I stood was unoccupied. For an instant I could sco nothing through the smoke, but it cleared almost instantly. Just as I the shepherd said, 'Don't shoot again — he's fixed,' I saw tho poor wrotch stagger ing wildly towards the hut, and then fall with a dull sound. God forgive me, it was very like murder. This was the first life I had ever takon. Tho next thing I re member was Mr S asking mo if I had run any bullets.

' Not one.' ' Have you any in the hut?' ' Not one.' Mat informed us that wc were ' treed, much in the same way as he would toll the overseer tho rations were short. He quietly pulled his gun from tho loophole, saying, ' I've only one more pill to kcop our skins whoic. We'll hey to trust to Doctor.'

Mat's dog Doctor was partly a Smithlield and partly a Newfoundland. He had been trained hy him to all sorts of tricks. Amongst " others, he repeatedly took messages to tho station when attached to his collar, and 1 presume this wa.s the ob ject Mat had in view when referring to him as capable of procuring relief. ' Mister, d'yo ye think ye kin rite a mis sage in the dark, or hy the moonlight, as kin' the li .Uls'Of tllollomestead to como this way? No time to lose; I sec the darkies dodging around the hut. Bill, knock away the low part of the rotten slab behind your hack. Here, Doctor.' The messngo was scrawled and fastened to the dog's collar in loss than a minute, and the noble brute, who seemed to know the danger, stood anxiously trembling till tho preparations wore completed. As I heforo stated, tho hut stood close to the stream, and from the rear the hank sloped abruptly towards the wator. The American for the first time seemed afl'ccted. When the mm fell under our shots, there was not tho slightest change (perceptible in his voice; but tho few words ho spoko to his dog wero broken and singularly soft. I'll be sworn there wero tears in tbo man's eyes. Everything being at last prepared he spat upon tho dog's muzzle, held Ids head close to his cheek for a.moment, and then pressed him quickly out of the hole and away down tho shelving bauk. Wc listened anxiously for a time, aud then there arose a wi'd jabbering for a minute,; the next instance wo detected a yelp of pain. 'My God 1' said I, involuntarily, ' the Doctor's speared.' •No, honrn't, darn ye 1' snapped Mat. 'He's jist touched, and no more. He'll doit,"

'Ho must he quick, then,' said Mr S—■ .' tho black devils liavo struck a light some whore, and they'ro going to bum us out. Look!'

Our oyps were upw intently scanning the movements of the savages through the littlo loopholes, nud wo saw a naming brand whizzing through tho air and scatter ing sparks in all directions. It fell on the stringy bark roof above our heads.' Another and another came, but it did not appear to us that any of them had taken effect. By this time the black fellows had gathered courage. Believing that our am munition was expended, many of them had left cover, and might be seen flitting about like spectres. Thoy had kindled a fire some distance off, aud across its glare shadows were constantly falling.

Tho firebrands wero thrown no longer; some fresh mode of attack was preparing. Our suspense continued for a long period (nearly half•*nwdHrar);~durlng"-which time not a word wi. spoken by any of us. '< Our solo dependence Wn_ the Doctor j and if help did not soon arrive, it was certain wo could find no escape from tho demons Who were trying to compass our destruction..; , ' Now, look slick, whispered Mat. " I see their gaino; they're going to give us fits. How's tho mbon ?—well aback of tho hut, I gues ?.: Bill, stick -. your cabbage tree on.a piUow, and hold it at the open window when I tell you. -I'll jhst go out and bid them good ovening.' ■ Don't bar. the door after mo, mister, but! [when .! show them.myiheelsopcn it. . : You. see. wo. can't snaro ammunition*'• I A:,.} o_aU .m ' ■ fWhile speaking Mat unbarred-the door., He slipped out noiselessly as ho concluded i the sentence. ■ - iti-.v .[:,.,.-, ■~. ,- t Through the slabs ho said to mc^-'. D'ye sco that divil with, the blafcin': log?! When he gets close to the wattle, open the window, and prop up the.pillow.- Take care of their spears yourself.' As soon as the black fellow came to the point indicated, I opened the long little shutter with somo noiso and hold up the dummy. In a moment a dozen i spears passed through tho aperture, and I lot the window fall as though ono of us was mortally woundedi ut '■■

There was a wild shout without. At this time the black fellow who carried the log was within a fow yards of the hut, and I heard Mat preparing for his move outside. Looking out as quickly as I could, I had iust timo to see his tall figtare emerge beyond the shade as the butt end of his gun fell crashing on the head of the fire bearer. The door was opened, aa Mat turned; it required but ono or two bounds to take him to the door, but the savsges wore too quick for him with their spears. He staggered through the entrance and fell just as he cleared the threshold. •Caught in the thigh, I guess,' he ex claimed, as ho slowly recovered himself, and painfully struggled to the window. .' Don't mind the spear,' he remarked to me as I ap proached him; «it's better as it is, till help comes.' 'If it ever does,' thought I.

The American's sortie, I believe, had rather a disastrous effect, for tho black fellows seemed to conclude at once that our ammunition was all expended, and • thoy thronged round tho hut without caring to shelter themselves.

In a short time tho crackling of flames on the roof put an end to our trouble. Tho hut was on fire, and there was nothing left for^ us but an attempt to dash out'ahd clear tlte aborigines. I proposed this,-biitTVlr S- — would npt try without Mat, and underneath i the blazing roof, with > clubbed guhfl, we! grimly awaited the final attack! : The American's rifle rested in the loophole, where he had first taken up his position. ' There's tho worst of thorn/ Mitt said, lookingalong his weapon; 'he's coming up with a log fo stave tho door;:; He'll neve* do it;' and our last bullet'brought down: the ringleader. ! , ■- _ '■■ ' -" tutsU wwu '-

■ There was consternation and'a hurried, consultation/ After a lapse of about fivo minutes, tlie whole of the besiegers rusheo shrieking on'ciur little garrison. A. moment's surge outside, and the door fell hack as Mr S; 's gun swung down on tho crowding savages with terrific force, felling ttfo.jof tho foremost like oxen. I remember a wild struggle with pur guns and fists. Mat and tho squatter towered above their opponents: like giants, fighting with terrible energy. The black fellows had forced me to the ground; one was shortening his grasp of the spear to drive it through my body, when' I folt a gush of blood spoutittg over my face and chest just as the savage fell on me mortally wounded. Then I remember a hurrah outside and the crackling of rifles. ' That was a good backhanded blow, boss,' said Mat, faintly ; ' I guess the cook's got another squeak. D'ye hear that ? HoOray I Knowed the Doctor u'd do it,' said he, with renewed energy; ' take that;' and I heard the dull sound of another blow, and a low moan of pain as the station hands rushed in, The Doctor coon recovered.. So did Mat, who is now ono of the richest men in the colonies. I—well I have a large scar across my breast;

A Very Curus Animule.

" A MAN," said Rev. Plato Johnson iii the course of a very eloquent sermon, "is a. very euros animule, He is de only animule dat don't havo a good timo when he is a, baby. Did dat idee ever 'cur to your mind, before? After he is dead he may go. to hebben, but after he's born, an' till he gits able to tako care of hisself, he has no comfort, an' he don't let nobody else hab any. Look at do dogs, wat a time dey has together. Dey is born free or four at a time, so dey necdn' be lonely, an' de minute dey gets dcre eyes open, dey begins to play an* fool wid each other an' to 'joy deirselvcs. Look at do lam b. Well, dat lamb of Mary's had a good deal better time dan Mary had herselfheforo she was big enough to go to school. Whoever heard of a lamb's havin' de toofachc, or de measles, or colic? Wen night comes do calf lies down quiet hy de side of its muddor, an' dats de last you hear of it till sunrise nex' mornin'. Did you ever hear of a calf havin' de chicken pox or do mumps? Echo answers, 'None of dose things 'curs in de lower animule world.' Now how is it wid de human baby? He ain't gcn'rally in do world morn half an hour before he begins to let the whole neighbourhood know dat he's come at last, an' intends to stay. He's got a immortal soul, which Mary's lamb had to do widout; but it docs seem to me, brethren, dat he pays for dat privilege wid a lot of things dat de lamb and de dog wouldn't have on no consid'ration. He no sooner gits well started bofore ho has to bite,a rubber ring all day to get his teeth through, an' sw'en dcy's comin through de fader has to tote de baby aU nite, and de baby yelli.' all de timo loud 'nuff for a.town cripr. No, de fac' is dat de hitman animule dont have ; no happiness till he grows big ,to have a home of his own, ah' even den his misery has just begun. Brethren, dis ;cqmplex problem has spiled my sleep a great many times." ~; ,;.'! YY _ ~'.,', )

The Egyptian Book of the Dead.

The Egyptian doctrine of the after-life of the soul is best derived from astudy of the Book of tho Dead and the other sacred writings which treat of what should be known upon earth with regard to existence beyond tho grave. The Book of the Dead is the most ancient and most important of this collection. The greater part of Egyp tian papyri is composed of the class of texts called the Ritual, or Book ot the Dead. This is a collection of hymns arid litanies con sidered to be recited by the deceased after death. These papyri, were' placed in 'th . toriiba beside tho mummies. Their num ber is very considerable. According to the; wealth of the person, the book is more 'or lesslong, from tcnlinesto a volume.They already appear before the Thirteenth -Dy-1 nasty, the oldest being a Queen'of the:' Eleventh. In course of time the text sriffered,' interpolations are' admitted,"'chapters fire droppO'd, Others added; ' The art of Was, j withmany scribes, a mere perfunctory.1 business. ' The work' is a. collection; of hymns and prayers without direct liriky[and: pmced in an order which seeriis to ris wholly arbitary, differing according to' the' date of' the papyrus. Ariiong all these-detached piboes- there is ohe of ;special interest,"the, judgment scene. The deceased is intro:' diiced into a hall of coluriins; the -Hall of' the Two Truths,.at the end of which.Osiris' is seated on a throne. This diVinity pre sides over a court of four judges, aided by, fortyjtwo witnesses. In the centre of the hall- is a balance; in ono of the scales of which is placed- the heart, in Egyptian'the conscience of deceased;-. While in.the other is the emblem of the. Goddess of Truth.: While the heart is being weighed the per son to be judged addresses in succession each of the forty-two witnesses, and declares" that he has not committed that one of the forty-two deadly sins with which- this spe cial genius is concerned. The deceased had before him in all the triab of the'iiinder world this great test. Acquitted, he passed through a further probation to filial-bliss; condemned, his intelligence wandered in space a tormented and tormenting spirit, until annihilated by the second death. Among the trials of the future state, the most interesting is the cultivation of the Elysian fields. That it was of supreme importance is seen in the abundance, of the little figures found in Egyptian tombs, which represent the Ushabti, or "Ans werer," invoked by the deceased to per form-in his person the labour of this mysti cal country.— Contemporary Review.

The Recent Great Discoveries in Egypt.

A GEEAT sepulchral treasure, upon, whioh the dailypapers have of late been reporting' with more 'of less accuracy,',,has, bee?l brought to light at Thebes.' Some miscon-! ception .having prevailed with regard torth^' identity of the Toyal mummies, the way in which the discovery was brought about, readers of the f.'AcademyV'Svill doubtless be glad to know the'exact, jiarti eulars. ' .-. -, * Observing how, for the last,ten, years,, relics of great value and rarity have been steadily finding their way from Egj*pttp, Europe,. Prof, Maspero has loDg suspected the Arabs of having found a royal, tomb.. When, however,- an English traveller pre sented him, some little time' ago'.'^itha photographed reproduction pf the first pages of asuperb ritual taught at Thebes,.and that' ritual proved to be the funeral -papyrus of JPinotem 1., his suspicion became certainty, and he determined to get at thebottom of the, mystery. HavingsucceededMariette-Faslia as DircctorandConservatortp , His Highness the Kedhive, Prof. Maspero proceeded.last'; spring to make his first official; trip to. IJppor Egypt. Arrived at Thebes, and confident that he had laid his finger on the1 right man,, he at once ordered the arrest of a certain well-known- dealer and guide, caijed '^bd-er rasoul; Tliis man who, with'two. younger brothers, lives in the tombs behind the Ra messeum) was then conveyed to the district prison at Keneb, where for twqi months be maintained an obstinate siience. The other brothers, meanwhile, had the trade;-to themselves, and^fraternal jealousy .at. last moyed the captive to betray their joint secret. Hereupon the Governor of :Keneh telegraphed to Cairo, jßy this time Prof,. Maspero had left for Europe; but Herr Emil Brugsch, keeper of the museum at Boolak, and Ahmed Effendi-Kemal, the acting sec retary and interpreter,- started immediately for Thchea, and transported the treasure to Cairo. Tarn indebted for these details to Professor Maspero, from whom I have received a long and interesting letter dated August -1; -. Believing that Jle '■ will: not object, ■ I translate, word for j word, his account of the objects discovered if?.' "We have put our hands, not upon a royal • tomb, but upon a hiding place in which were piled—perhaps after' the' great tomb robberies of the Twentieth Dynasty, or more probably at the time when, TheheS was sacked by the Assyrians—thirty-six mummies of kings, queens,-princes, and high priests. Thus.we have the mummy of a Kaskenon j that of Amenophisl., and of :his wife, J Ahmfe4-nofetiri ; • that of Thothmesll.; of Rameses XII.; of Pino, torn I.; of the Queen Isi-in-Kheb; Of the Queen Notemit, &ci, &c.;: the whole representing some 6,000 new phjecta. in cluding five papyri,;'- one: of-which is tho funeral papyrus of the Queen Makdft, of the Twentieth Dynasty, and'two plaques similar to - those I have already. published, and which, by the way, must have come from this spurce." as:,- 1 - : ;•• J-' ■■-.'"'■
