THE CRAZY ENGINEER. 3
DEFERRED ARTICLES.
t Terrible Famine , in Norway Hundred
t Dviva Dai?v- The English papers ' have ac
'? counts from Norway, which give a painful pic
: ; ture of the suffering of the inhabitants of Lap-
i land and Jbinmark, bordering on the Worth
1 Cape of Norway, t Owing to a failure of the
crops, the inhabitants are in a state of starva-
tion. . .:
' " Hundreds are dyiD daily, and the living
are compelled to subsist as they best can, on
' thc.bark of Vrees, ground and cooked with oats.
In order to alleviate these sufferings charitable
1 committees have been organized on the opposite
t coasts of the Gulf of Bothnia to collect contri-
; butions in kind, such as corn, flour, vegetables
i and spirits, which will be conveyed to them
i across the ice in sledges. As an addition to
i the suffering of these poor creatures, the cold
i is of a 1 severity rarely experienced, even in
t those ice-bound countries " .

r ' The CensxU of Missouri, T which has just been
taken, shows the State to have a total - popula
tion of 912,206, of whom 819,593 are free
whites, 2652 free blacks, and 89,590 slaves.
The increase of the white population in, six
years has been over thirty-eight per cent., or
224,453, while the increase of the slaTCs has been
1,823, or. only a fraction over two per cent.
Two counties Teturn no slaves; twenty counties
report only 1000 altogether, the highest reaching
only ninety-six, and the lowest but eight. , Up
to the year 18o0, the increase cf the. slave pop
ulation in Missouri was rapid and remarkable,
but the increase .seems now to be, as effectually
. My train left Danzig in the morning gener
ally about 8 o'clock, but once a week we were
compelled to wait for the arrival of the steam
er .Stockholm. It was the morning of the
steamer's arrival thtt I came down from rav
hotel and found my engineer had been so seri
ously injured that he could not run. A rail
way carriage had run over him and broken hia
legs. . I went immediately to the engine
house to procure another engineer, for I knew
that there were three or four in. reserve there:
but I was disappointed. I enquired for Weit-
phal, but was informed that he had gone to
fcteegen to see his mother. Gondolpho had
been sent to Koinsburg on the 'road. But
where was Mayne ? He had leave of absence
for two days and had gone no one knew whith
er. - , ' : -
I Here was a fix. I heard the puffing of the
steamer on the Neufahwasser, and the passen
gers would h3 on hand in fifteen minutes. I
ran to the guard And asked them if they knew
where there was an engineer, but they did not.
I then went to the firemen and asked them if
any of them felt competent to run the engine
to Bromberg. Not one of them dared attempt
it. The distance was nearly a hundred miles.
What was to be done ? '
The steamer stopped at the wharf, and those
who were going on by railroad came flocking
to the station. They bad eaten their breakfast
on board the boat, and were all ready for . the
fresh start. The baggage was - checked and
registered, the tickets bought, the different
carriages pointed out to the various classes of
passengers, themselves seated. The train was
in readiness in the long station house, and the
engine was steaming and puffing away imps.'
ticntly in the distant fire house.
It Was past nine o'clock.
"Come, why don't we start?" growled an
old fat Swede, who had been watching me nar
rowly for the last fifteen minutes.
Upon this there was a general chorus of anx
ious inquiry, which soon settled to downright
murmuring. At this juncture some one touch
ed me on the elbow. I turned and saw a stran
ger by my aide. -1 expected that he was going
to remonstrate wun me ior my backwardness.
In fact, I began to have strong temptations to
pull off my uniform, for every anxious eye -.,.
I looked at the window and 'founi that, we
were dashing, along at a speed, never before

and trees flew by in one undistinguished 'mt&a

must get him off some how."
The whole fearful truth was now open to me.
The speed of the train was Increasing every

per hour would hunch us into . destruction. I
called to the guard, and then made my wj
