"There is gratitude loft in the wo 1." Herbert Boynier was lying in the damp and piely gloom of his dungeon, skesping as coaud. ly and es parefully as though he wo-o not to be
started up-and with the first flash of awaking consciousness came the thought that the time had cows, and the hand that had dropped on
his shoulder in the darkness was that which should land him forth to bis doom.

There is still time for those who read this notice on the day of its publication to register their names with Kelly & Walsh, Ld. A preliminary remittance of twenty dollars with the contract properly signed is all that is necessary to score a copy of the work at the pre ent prices, which will hoca ter be advanced. Those who do not wish to take delivery of the volumes now and to begin their payments at once may defer delivery for two, three or four months, as the case may be. They will be required to register their orders now, as by so doing they will enable The Times" to arrive at the exact number of copies of the first impression which will be required for China. The next impression will be sold at an advanced price.

Still preserving the most rigid silence they held on, downward, by a sleep path. Turning bis head Raynier could make out the loom of the great mountaiu mas against the stars, and was conjecturing on the ease and absenco of obstacle which had ebaracterised his deliver- auce at the hands of the Nawab's son, for not a soul did they encounter, no guard challenged them; and it occurred to him that in the strength of his fottere his safe keeping had lalu, wherefore no watch was placed over him; aud this was the real meaning of it.

THE REVOLVING BOOKCASE.
It is a prime neoasity of its very existence that the Tenth Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannios should be a work of ample proportions, a great libenry in itself. This means belt- room, sad shelf-room is not always available. But the especially constructed revolving boo" pase of quartered oak minimas the space ocoupled, and the volumes arrango themselves in it so that they can easily be reached. A limited number of revolving cases has been sent from London especially for subscribers in China.
