Eldad lay in his bed up stairs and ate the eotton wool ot three comforts, to stay ihe rage of his stomach, and, it is supposed, in one of these dread vigils the awful scheme was evolved that I am about to describe.

The pipe of the stove lay across the dresser; the nose was blown off the immortal George Washington which adorned the mantle a way of blowing his nose George never would have adapted in lifi. Bat the most dreadful part of the catastrophe was discovered when they mouuted the back stairs; there lay the conspirator with the pendu lum pinning him in the rear like an arrow of the archer.
