June 11.— The report o! t h e House Judiciary Committee on the E d m u n d s Anti-Polygamy bill, which was presented • t o tho House yesterday, is a very long document. Alter a detailed s t a t e m e n t oi tho charges made by the committee (already pubhshod) und the reaaons therefor the committee Bays i t has uo disposition t o recommend any meawuro to tho House which will Involve the sanctity of any religious Inith, however wrontr in its opinion it may i>e. The committee expresses its dissent from the twelfth section of the Senate bill, t h e effect of which would be t h a t the cond u c t of tho corporate "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" would bo controlled by trustees of the church in conjunction " with trustees appointed by the President. This union of trustees of tho church and those of t h e Government could not bo distinguished) from a union of the church and s t a t e and •a law respecting tho establishment of religion. The committeo thinks the charter can be taken away without any strained construction of authorities, and says: "Both the charter of the church and of tho Emigration Fund Company are null for lack of power. U'he acts confirming those charteis are void for the same reason. It is a matter of grave doubt whether the organic act authorized the original grant of sucirchartors as these-werer The Emigra* tion Fund Company act trenches upon the power of Congress as to foreign emigration, and assumes to regulate a m a t t e r neither delegated to nor within its authority. But both these laws are unconstitutional, for it is obvious they give a preference to this form of religion o v e r every other. A law •which thus discriminates in favor of one form of religion ovor another is in a prope r sense a Taw respecting the establishm e n t of religion.' Congress, which pos sesses all original power over the Territories, has the right to avoid the acts of its subordinate agency and assert its own poli c y . " With this view of tho power of Congress t h e committee recommends to cut out by t h e roots this church establishment and t h e Emigration F u n d Company and its attachments, a n d ' t o authorize a judicial prj ceeding through t h e Attorney- GenjiKfTfor dealing with the property ru^hts^iccording t o law and equity. Of the sectiohoi-tlio bill requiring voters t o take an^onxn t o support the laws tho Teport-eay8: "Xone of those who will do things prescribed in the oath should "Vote—for they are n o t good citizens." In conclusion tho report says: ''While the bill as amended deals with t h e public questions with firmness and "with a real purpose of curing existing -evils, it does so in entire consistency with tho constitutional liberties of tho people -and with their free right to exercise their religious' beliefs according to their confidences and only under the responsibility •of each m a n to the Supremo Being."

BELFAST, June 11.—The Orange riots •were renewed here last night.

Many of tho police were injured by stones. The appeals of clergyjnen to the rioters to disperse were futile, .Eventually the troops cleared tho streets. The city was comparatively quiet during t h e day, but mobs filled the streets and all work and all business was suspended. T h e Orangemen are greatly incensed a t t h e constabulary for firing upon them and t h r e a t e n t o sack their barracks. Seven h u n d r e d extra policemen are in town. T h e out-of-town police have been withdrawn from the streets in con- ^sequence of the - hostility manifested toward them by Orangemen, a n d soldiers have been told off to take t h e i r places. The P r o t e s t a n t s living on t h e Shank Hill r o a d held a meeting yester- • d a y and adopted resolutions denouncing t h e foreign police and demanding their 'withdrawal.

LONDON, June 12.—Tho rioting at Belfast Thursday night was less disastrous t h a n on Wednesday. After their day's labor had ended 'thousands of workiugmen gathered iu tho vicinity of the Bowers Hill police station. They execrated the police and cried out: "We will' have ten lives for every one ot the murdered." The country police w#re then withdrawn and some well-known local constables were sent to reason with tho mob. The latter demanded tho withdrawal of all the police. Archbishop Levre and several Presbyterian clergymen, after this, implored tho mob to disperse. Their addresses proved altogether useless, and even while the clergymen were speaking the rioters kept' up a desultory stonethrowhfg a t the police. One stone struck a divine squarely in the face and hurt him severely. When the preachers ceased the mob surged up t o the gate of the barracks and defied tho police to come out and make a square fight. Things went on in this way till a b o u t ten o'clock, when two troops of d r a g o o n s gallopud up, They were followed by U00 infantry. These men had been under arms eleven hours. The mob was for_a mpjnent powerless with surprise and dispersed. Tho runaways soou, however, becamo ashamed of themselves and returned to the scene, warmly cheering the soldiers. The latter had taken complete possession ofthestreets around the barracks and cordoned them effectively. The mob. realizing the impregnability of the police, departed in sections, cursing the Pope, denouncing ho m« rule, and singing "Tho Orange Lily" u •'Rule Britannia.'' While all this was ^orug-tfn a t the Bowers Hill banwckaji^rtob h;id taken possession of Yorjv-^treoti They first concentratcii- krtront of a wine store kept by a lolic named McKenria. The building was soon seized and wrecked, and all of McKenua's stock of wines waa emptied in tho street. This mob then proceeded to MCL'JOM key's tavern.

BARNABY LOST. H o w J u r i e s W e r e " W o r k e d D a y s o f D a n i e l W e b a t e r ' a C « r e e r . A good story, capitally.-told by Mr. Webstcr, illustrat<.\d his early prof essional life in .New Hampshire. "When I was a young practitioner," said Mr. Webster, ''there was but ono man at the New Hampshire bar of whom 1 Was afraid, and that was old Barnaby. There were but few m e n who dared to enter the list with him. On one occasion Barnaby was employed to defend a suit for a piece of land, brought by a little, crabbed, cunning lawyer called Bruce. Bruce's case was looked upon as good as lost when it was -that Barnaby. was retained agajjo^st him. The suit came on for trjaf, arid CHARI.ES WICKS, of Northport, L. I., has a tub of water in his barn $pr watering horses. He placed seven or eight big bullheads in it. The barn is full of rats which, when they are thirsty, climb up on the edge of the tub to drink. No sooner does a rat dip his nose under water than the bullheads grab him, pull him down, drown him, and eat him at their leisure. A. H. DAYTON*, of Springfield, 0., bought a chicken—so-called—for a recent Sunday dinner. The cook dressed it, and found within throe'shelless eggs. They were put into tho frying pan with the fowl, and ina moment there were three separate explosions like pistol shots, euchegg^Was violently dashed against the ceiling, and the cook was badly burped: It is suggested that the hen had been feeding on dynamite. __A--siAK living near Tampa, Fla, was bit- In the Early ^ ^ ° o n the leg by a rattlesnake. A doctor was at once sent for, and the log was bandaged tightly above tho wound, although it was thought that the man would die before medical'assistance could be procured. The leg, having been bared for the application of the bandage, was attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes. When the physician finally arrived he found the man in good condition, but the ground around where he lay was strewn with dead mosquitoes. ^,- --"" Barnaby_ found that. Brucyj-had worked hard, a n d "TeTtT'llo^fo'hc unturned to gain the victoryr T h e testimony for the plainjtuTwas very strong, and unless. Jt~could be impeached the case of int was* lost. The principal traduced 1>3' the plain till wore a rod coat. In summing up for the defense, old Barnaby commenced a furious attack on this witness, pulling his testimony all to pieces, and appealing to the jury if a m a n who wore a red coat was, under any circumstances, to be believed. 'And who ks this red-coated witness?1 exclaimed Barnaby, 'but a descendant of our common enemy, who. has striven to take from us our liberty, and would not hesitate now to'deprive my poor client of his land by making any sort of red-coatod statement!' During this speech Bruce was walking up and down the bar, greatly excited, and convinced that his case was gone, knowing, as he did, the Srejndice of the jury against any thing ritish. Whilst, however, 'Barnaby was gesticulating, and leaning forward to the jury in his eloquent appeal, his shirt bosom opened slightly, *fcnd Bruce accidentally discovered that Barnaby wore a'red flannel undershirt. Brace's countenance' brightened up. Putting both hands/In his coat pockets, he walked to t h e n a r with great confidence,, to the astonishment of his client and all looke-rs-on, <*ast a«r Barnaby concluded, Bruce whispered in the ear of his cUetti: T v e got him; your case is safe;' a n d approaching the jury he commoticedhis reply to the slaughtering argument of hisadversary. Bruce gave a regular history of the ancestry or his red-coated witness, proving, his /patriotism and devotion to the country, and his character for truTTi"Wit- vera'Cv ity. "But what, gentlemen of the jury.' broke, forth Bruce* in a loud strain of eloquence, while, his o}-cs flashed lire, 'what are you to expect of a man who stands here to defend a cause based on no foundation of right or justice whatever; of a man who undertakes to deour testimony on the ground that my whttess wears* 'a fed coat, when, g e n t l e m c n ^ o f t h e jury, when, when, when, gentleiiieii^of the jury [Here Bruce made a sprrng. and, catching Barnaby by the bosom^nf the"shirt, tore it open, displaying his^rcd flannel], when Mr. Barnaby him self "\viears_ -a red flannel coat concealed under a blue one?1 The^effcet was electrical; Barnaby was beaten at his own game, and Bruce gained the case/* —Ben: Perky Poorc, in Boston Budqct* " T h e S l o u g h o f I>e«pon4«ficy'* in which you are wallowing, on account 6f some of those diseases peculiar to you, mudame, andjwolch have robbed you of the rosy Jute of health", and made life a burde.n-to'you, you can easily get out of. ras ascertained jJiivTieree'* "Favorite Prescription" will nined against" free.you from all such troubles, and soon •""* recall-the-rose^tint of_h.ealth to your cheek, and the elasticity to vourstep.

Lassing, M. 1>., editor, -writes the following beautiful description of the laboratories of tho human system. We think we have never read a finer or more trustworthy oue.J " Man is the greatest of all chemical laboratories. Magnify the smallest cell of the body and what a factory la spread bofore the eyes countless chambers in which are globes of air, masses of solid matter, globules of dying liquid; a flash comes and the whole is consumed and needful heat is carried into every part of the system. Electrical forces also generate and are conveyed to the brain, the muscles and the various nerve centers. '•In another set of a million chambers we see various gashes and vapors. By chemical action the^e ate changed and puriiied in the lungs and the skin. The blood we often say is a great living river, in its current are masses which the air in the lungs did not attect: blocks of chalk; slabs of tartar; pieces of bone-ash, strings of albumen; drops of molasses, and lines of alcohoL How are these waste masses disposed of? .Begin where you will in this great stream you must come to the purifying places of the system. Hero is all activity and an invisible force- reaches out into the stream, seizes and carries this mass of waste into vast trenches, thence into a smaller reservoir, and finally into a larger reservoir, which re^ulurly discharges its contents. "•This separation of limo, uric acid and other waste material from the blood without robbing it of a particle of the life fluid, passes human comprehension. In health this blood-purifying paocess is carried on without our knowledge. The organs in which it is done are faithful servants whose work is silent as long as health remains. 4* People strangely wait until pain strikes a nerve before they will realise that they have any trouble. They do not know that pain concerns chiefly the exterior not the interior of the body. A certain set of nerves connect these blood-purifying organs with the brain. They may not gnaw and bite as does the tooth-ache or a scratch, but they regularly, sjleutly report. When these organs are falling these nerves indicate it by drawing the blood from the face and cheek, leaving the lip and eye blanched, by sending uric acid poison into the smallest veins, the skin then becoming gray, yellow or brown. They also prevent the purification of the blood in.the lungs and cause pulmonary difficulties, weariness and pain. Who enjoys perfect health, espepeciaily iu this, land where we burn the candle in one thassi The athlete breaks down in, the race; the editor_lfllls_at his desk; the merckant succumbs in his counting- room. These events should not have been unexpected for nature longap;o hung out her 'lanterns of alarm.' VVhen the 'accident' finally comes, its fatal effect is seen in a hundred forms*, either as congestion, chronic weakness, as wrong action, as variable appetite, as head troubles, ay palpitation and irregularities of the heart, as premature decay, as dryness and harshness of the skin causing the hair to drop out or turn gray, as apoplexy, as paralysis, em general debility, blood poisoning, etc. ''Put no faith then in tno wiseacre who says there is no danger em long as there is, no path. Put no faith in the physician, whoever ho may bt», who says iVtijra mere cold or a slight indisposition.' He knows tittle, if any, more thait-You do about it. He can neither £&er' nor examine these organs and^*b>p<?nds entirely upon experimental tests, that you can make as well as he^.- ' " --"""If tho output is discolored or niuddy, if it contains albumen, lymph, crystals, sweet or morbid mntter, is red with escaped blood, or roily with gravel, mucus and froth, something is wrong and disease and death are not far away. "These organs which we have described thus at length, because they are really the mo>t important ones in the human system, tne ones in which a large majority of human ailments originate and are sustained, are the kidneys. They have not been much discussed in public because it is conceded that the profession has little known power over them. What is wanted for such organs is a simple medicine, which can do no harm to the most delicate but must bo of the greatest benefit to the afflicted. Such a remedv, tried and proved by many thousands ail over the world is Warder's safe cure. With those in whom disease is deep seated it is the only specific. For those in whom the seeds are sown and the beginning of illness started it is an unfailing reliance. It may be recommended to the well to prevent sickness and the sick to prevent death. With its aid the great filtering engines «f the system keep on in their silent work without interruption; without it they get out of gearand thou disease and death open tho door and cross the threshold."

The salvation army has settled upon Howell as their state headquarters. The sink hole on the new road in this place still pives trouble. It settles nearly every time a train goes across it. The T. A. A. & N. M. depot will be built of brick and will be placed at the loot of Walnut street. A nice job of grading is being done in iteproposed locality. The Methodist socjefy has decided, to add 15 feet to the west end of" their church, giving them an increased seating capacity of about 150. Work will betfin at once. The committee on arrangements seeing that they had mapped out too grand a celebration tor even the large amount qt monejrraised, went around town the morning following the biy "protest" meeting and raised an extra hundred dollars in4 popular subscriptions of $1 and $2 each. The masses of the people want a triple-plated, golden-trimmed display of potriotism, and Howell is going to invest the price of a decent little farm for that purpose. Let the Biitish lion yelp, for Howell will twist its tail tighter than the purse-strings of the loudest talking moral reformer's usually are when a subscription paper is on its rounds.

General Manager &&m FOWLERVILLE SAYINGS. From the Kevlew. Mr. C. G. Handy is now the happy father of a 10$ pound boy, born on Wednesday. At a meeting of the school board on Friday evening last the following able crips ot teachers were engaged f&r the coming scbocl year: C. E. Foster, principal; Belie E. Horton, preceptress; Mis.* Mate Bennett, Grammer; Miss Nellie Kuel, second primary; $ti«.s Jennie Spencer and Miss Eva Austin, first primary. On Friday last Mrs. G. Smith, of Conway, stapted to drive to Byron alone. When near the residence of Mr. Andrew Love a hog that was lying under a tree by the side of the road sprang up and frightened the horse which ran abom 20 rods, throwing Mrs. Smith out and bruising her considerably, but not dangerously. The buggy is a total wreck. The horse stopped and came back alter recovering irotn its fright. Lewis Herning and Benjimm^A Wilcox, proprietors of the meat markets, have signed an agreement that on and after next Sabbath, June 13tb, they will close their respective markets at eight o'clock sharp, stand' ard time, until October 1st, and a/ter that date to June 1st, 1887, neither market will be opened at all on Sun* day, except in case of sickness. This is certainly a move m the right direction. There is no more reason-for keening a meat market open all day Sunday than there is for the dry goods and grocery store*, Business men are dividing into two classes. One class pushes ahead through rain and shine and all manner of business troubles and turn up al the business possible; the other class holds back and studies the various signs ot the times, making an attempt to do something when times look bright and everything runs along smoothly, and stopping their efforts the moment the sky begins to darken in the financial horizon. The first class always manage to tind business in some way, while the latter take what they can get after the first is through. Business come* only by hard work, and tho^e who go steadily forward, using ordinary business prudence, are sure to come out on top in the end. Confidence in one's own ability to do business is as necessary to success as a prosperous condition of things genera ly.—Ex. The more money you exact of a saloonkeeper to sell liquors, the harder be will work to ruin your sons and daughters. How high do you want the license? Some one says so high that it will prohibit, Ab, the secret of wanting license is for the moneyS sake. Shame on the man that wants money at the expense of his so* or daughter's virtue!—Review. The Pontiac Bill Poster says the business men of the state, no matter where located, have no idea of the yearly loss they incur on account of roads, while the loss to farmers is nearly as great. Country roads should be built in a first class and permanent manner under the direction of competent men, and a tax should be levied to carry on and complete the work. » * Actlie, Pushing and Reliable.

"My dear child, Nellie Mkldleton Is t*0t a coquette—at least in the ordinary acceptance of the terra. She hai an exceeding desire tp be liked, to be petted; t o be something more than a mere acquaintance of those whom she admires. She is a general favorite among women, unless they chance to be jealous of her—though how she manages that doubtless- you will so6n be able to tell better than 1; but with the men she has the art of finding out the "thing which you especially desire to shine, and to appreciate you in that thing. For instance, keen little thing she is, she discovered what my wife don't know yet, that 1 am not verv proud of my scribbling—think it, in fact, very poor stuff, indeed; but I like to be considered as a man of fine taste and keen perceptions «nd sympathies. It didn't take Nellie more than three times to find that, and she is always appealing to those supposed qualities, I know perfectly all the time she is playing with m e ; that is only her way of making herself agreeable; that she "isn't overwhelmingly anxious for my approval; that she isn't occtfpied when away from me in picturing to1 herself all my good and winning qualities, and yet I like it. \Vhen she is looking at me in her soft, appealing Vay she can twist me around her linger."' Vivia gave a little si^u. "And you say she is coming this afternoon?" . "Yes; she will be here 1osupper." Nellie came, dressed simply enough in black—a very pretty girl, fair, but not blonde, with brown hair brushed away from the wide, calm forehead; gray, cheerful eyes, and a face in general outline of feat tire not altogether unlike that of Marie-Stuart. She was quiet, almost silent. The girls looked atone another as if they would say: "Is this the paragon whom we were to dread*" and arched brows and pursed-up mouths in pretty contempt nt me, not Eeeing, as I did, that Nellie was simply taking their gauge and a .survey of her position. She felt instinctively a certain stand-offishness assumed toward her by the feminine element, and set herself to combat tt; found .In le.ss than a week a hundred ways of being useful and entertaining. She was skillful in devising ways in which to afford the girls tete-a-tctes with their respective "particulars," behaved,in short, more like a grandmother than a belle of 20; won them all over, even including Bell, who seemed to like her grudgingly and under protest, and then was ready for action. . . - ' During her week of quiescence there had been, though she had appeared unconscious bf the fact, masculine observers. They had .seen that she was not * only lovely, but after that piquant fashion which depends much on expression, and keeps you busy studying it. She sang sweetly, played well, con- 4» Versed delightfully, had a keen eye and •aft touch ; grew on you, in short, •Irengthened her hold upon you day by day. One thing, however, puzzled me—an unusual languor, almost timidity, in Nellie, and Otto Winstanley's almost incomprehensible conduct. He had joined in none of the conversation anticipatory of her arrival, and when she was presented there was a start and sudden paleness on Nellie's part and a sudden dark upleaping of color and feeltag to his face as he muttered something about a previous acquaintance. I think no one else observed this, or the ftHt that bis indolent flirtation with Bell 4 b w e d with sudden and unaccountable ^«fftk)r since Nellie's arrival. Perhaps, alm, no one else remarked that he certainly treated Miss Middleton with downright rudeness and neglect, or thought to ask themselves If a man was apt to be rude and neglectful toward a sweet and winning girl to whom he'was perfectly indifferent. But, be that as it might, two slow weeks went and ) s a w no more clearly in. terthe myBtery than I had done at first. But one evening Nellie came and sat down beside me fn the twilight. She sat very still, looked even paler than nsnal, and I caught myself pitying her, bnt at a loss how to manifest it 1 remained silent Otto strolled in, and giving me a -brief fcpd, sat down and began playing with Jip, the terrier. Having a vague idea that Nellie might be inclined to be more specific with him than me, I made Mrs. Polly do some one a good turn, for one of the few times in her life, and getting u p — a f l o U Q U a b o u t being wanted, lnffr them alone, w h a t afterward occurred I h a r t frega the beat authority—Nellie heraelt aat in tne laac-growing twilight* memories busy a t the heart of each; pride struggling with a feeling that, during those weeks, bad fast been growing too strong for i t Nellie, with bowed head and swimming eyes; Otto watching hex, with face softening In spite of himself. Suddenly Nellie rose with an air of desperation, and brushing past Otto, went over to the piano. As she reached It something rang o u t sharply—a click, as of something metallic that had struck on the marble hearth. Otto stooped to pick u p something that shone in the red firelight just at hlaioot. She moved forward as if to prevent him ; stood then, as if paralysed, as he held up a ring—a simple little thing—only a plain gold circlet, bearing some words engrave* on it, hanging from a chain attached t o a hood likv> a watch guard. Otto looked alternately at it and Nellie, who stood by him crimson and speech* leas. " Y o u have kept tnis all this time, Nellie?"' Nellie was silent " Why did you keep It?" " I wanted something to wear on t h e chain, and I don't carry my watch." "Oh, I thought perhaps you cared something for it, after all t" " You thought differently when we ware last together." "I had reason." *• That is your assertion." "Answer, then, f ask you to Judge yourself. Had t riot reason F Would not any man have been justified in being incensed and outraged at your _couduct F" "I was very young, very thoughtless. I never dreamed that you really cared. It was pleasant to talk and fret, and I liked to vex you for the pleasure of the reconciliation.'* " A strange pleasure, that was pleased with the pain it inflicted on what it loved the best. A strange thoughtlessness, that permitted me no freedom, but elaimed an unbounded liberty for herself." " Ybu have said all thofte things once," returned Nellie, with some dignity, *» and it was painful enough to hear them once." " I had no intention of reproaching you," answered Otto; " for out of the bitterness of the heart my mouth spoke. It is so miserable to look at you and think what might have been, and how now we are hopelessly separated." "Otto," said Nellie, timidly, "don't you think we might be friendsf You need not treat me quite as an enemy. If you have Buffered, so do I ; and you cannot think what a pain it is to see the eyes that once were my light look coldly or* me. It makes me wretched. &et us, at least, be friends." Otto looked at her earnestlyV took A*r hands and drew her toward him. Half unconsciously she sank down on the little stool at his feet, her head close to his hand, that, following its old habitude, began to stroke the soft, bright hair. Presently "No," said Otto, firmly. ««Wecon never befriends." "You are unforgiving." "Very. I will not bate nn atom of my just rights.* 1 must and will have you for my wife, as you once promised me to be, or nothing. Mere cool friendship will not satisfy me." "And 1 was not very obstinate," concluded Nellie, archly, "an that was precisely why I came, knowing that he was here." I have t heir wedding cards before me now, and now I am going to whisper Tt»~ the ear of,the public what I then thought; Nellie dropped the ring on purpose. ILL-FITTING NAME3. _, .

The French Professor Pasteur, who has made himself famous by Inoculating men and cattle with disease germs to insure them against epidemics, ought to yield the palm of priority in that discovery to a thumble priest of Siberia. In 1M8, when the Siberian plague was killing the cattle in this place, Father An* drew tloaklmansky of the Troitzky village, resorted to a desperate means In order to save his cows. He got some blood frdm a dying cow, saturated threads with that blood, and passed these threads through the ears of the healthy cows, numbering eleven. At the place where the ears were punctured there appeared tumors of the size of a pigeon egg. In a short time those tumors disappeared, and the cows remained alive and healthy, though t b r rest of the cattle of that vU* lags peris***- TMmr W a r e Ae«.aaft*te*.

Would it net be better not to give the Christian nit mo until girls come of age? I once knew a family of nine girls, none of whom was christened until the youngest was 16 years of-age. They used to be called Nos, 1,. a, and so on to 9. At 1G the character is sufficiently formed to be suited with a name, and* no one would feci perplexed at hearing a great bouncing creature, who talks stable slang and whistles to her dogs, sailed Selina or Susan, or s-ome such homely name; while, perhaps, all one's previous impressions of the probable Gertrude, or Adelaide, or Frances, receive a violent jerk on being confronted with the owners of those names. And men's names are occasionally quite as anomalous. The only Frank I know is short and stout, and a slow thinker, who begins to dribble out his words before his thought is ready, and then has to make a clui'nsy pause while the poor slow thing is overtaking him. How different from the bright and winning Frank of fiction. How many Georges does one know who slay their dragons? And how many Jacks who kill their giants. Tom is somewhere near Jack, but less attractive, for these yielding, susceptible sinners are generally very likable. Andrew is not. He is slow and sure, and quite reliable, «> far as his own interest jump with yours. I think 1 should hate to.be married to an Andrew; that is, the typical Andrew. A s to John and James, they are either John and James, or else they are Jack and Jim, and worlds divide these from each other. James and .John are fixed stars—Jim and Jack are planets, if not comets, with ihe"**xj»eption that not a l l the science in the world could with certain ity predict their movements. Then there is Alfred; often a quite unbearaj prig, while Fred .is the very contrary. Frederick is a very differen>fban from Fred, and it seems as Impossible for Harry to grow old^a^Tt is for Henry t o be very young. ,-Charley is surrounded b f historic,.^race, which disappears when we ^examine into facts, but the name Improved by the cloudy halo that ear* rounds i t But Charles?

At New York City the success nl tained is. more noticeable, in all instances full wages being paid for nine hours' work by iJ.'!,000 workmen.

GUilstone INKUOK an AdtJresn to His ConalitufnU tu Midlothian—The Issues of the Coiulr.tf British Campaign Clearly Wet Forth. LONDON, J u n e 1 4 . - M r . Gladstone hair issued the following manifesto to tile' electors of Midlothian: "GENTLEMEN*: In consequence of the defeat of the bill for the better government of Ireland the Ministry advised, and her Majesty was pleased to sunctiou,. tho dissolution of r a r l i a i n e n t for af uucisiou by the nation of tho gravest uud likewise the simplest issuethat has been submitted to it for half a century. It is only a sense of the gravity of tiiis issue which "induces me, at a period of fife when nature cries aloud for repose, to seek, „a£ter sitting in ^thirteen Parliaments, u seat in the fourteenth, and with this view to solicit, for the fifth time, tun honor of your confidence. "At tho last election 1 endeavored i n my" addressee and speeches to impress unpiv. you that a groat crisis had arrived i n I w 1 atlairs of Ireland. Wouk as tho late Guveminent was for ordinary purposes, It had great advantages for iieuliug with t h a t crisis. A comprehensive measure proceeding from that Government would have received warm and extensive support from within the Liberal pnriy, and would probably havo closed the.. Irish" controversy within tho'present s e s - sion and have left the parliament of 188¾ fret) to prosecute tho now stagnant work of ordinary legislation, with the multitude of questions it includes. My earnest hope was to support the Into Cabinet in such a course of policy. On tho 2iitu of last J a n u a r y the opposite policy of coercion was declared to have been the choice of the Government, the Earl of Carnarvon alone refusing to • share in it. Tho Irish tpiestioti was thus, placed in tho foreground, to the exclusion of every other. Tiie hour, a~s~ all felt, "was come.. The only point remaining to determine was tho manner in which it was to be dealt with. "In my judgment, the proposal of coercion was not justified by facts and wasdoomed to certain and disgraceful failure. Some method of governing Ireland other thau coercion ought, as I thought, to be sought for aiul to be found." Continuing, with an allusion to his undertaking the task of obtaining for Ireland a domestic Legislature and a reminder oi the front place which t h a t question had held in the legislation of previous Parliaments, Mr. Gladstone asks: "Will you govern Ireland by coercion,, or will you let her manage her own affairs \ To debate in this address this and that detail of tho lately defeated bill would be only to disguise this issue, and would be as futile as to discuss the halting, stumbling, ever-shifting, ever-vanishing projects of an intermediate class which h a v o proeeeded from the seceding Liberals. There are two clear, positive and intelligible plans , be- > fore the world. There is the plan of the Government, and there is tho plan of Lord Salisbury. - Our opinion is that Ireland should, under well-considered conditions, transact her own affairs. Lord Salisbury's plan is to,ask Parliament to renew the repressive laws for twenty years, by the end of which time, ho assures us, Ireland will be fit to accept any government in the way of local government or repeal of the coercion laws you may wbsh to givo her. "1 leave the Tory subject to speak for itself in its unadorned simplicity, und I t u r n to the proposed policy of the Government. Our oppouents, gentlemen, whether Tories or secodors, have assumed the name of unionists. I deny them the title to it. In intention, indeed, wo are all unionists alike, but tho union they refuse to modify is in its present1 shape a paper union obtainou by force and fraud and never sanctioned or accepted by the Irish nation. They are not unionists, but paner unionists. True H+Ooti is t o b e t e s teu-bythe sentiments of the human beings united. Tried by thiscriterion wo have less union between Great, liritaiu and Ireland now than we had uhder tho settlement of 17*2. Enfranchised Ireland, gentlemen, ask:* through hor lawful representatives for the revival of her domestic Legislature—not» on the face of it, an innovating, but a. restorative proposal. She urges with truth that the centralization of Parliaments has been tho division of peoples, but she recognized the fact that the union, lawlessly a-t it was obtained, can not and ought not to be repealed. She is content to receive her Legislature in a form tiivested of prerogatives which might have impaired her imperial , interests vs and bettor adapted than t h b . settlement of 17S2 to secure to hor regularcontrol of her own affairs. She ha* not repelled, but has welcomed the stipulations for tho protection of tho minority. To such provisions we have given and shall give careful heed, but 1 trust Scotland will condemn tho attempts so singularly made to import into tho controversy a venomous; element of religious bigotry. Let her take warning by tho deplorable riots in Belfast, and other places in the north. '"Among the benefits gentlemen, I a n t i c i - pate from your acceptance of our policy are these : Tho consolidation of tho united empire and great addition to its s t r e n g t h ; tho stoppage of the heavy, constant and demoralizing waste of the- public: treasure; tho abatement and gradual extinction of ignoble feuds . in. Ireland and that development o f lier resources which experience show* It* be a natural consequence of free and c r i e r - - ly government; the redemption of the** honor of Groat Britain from the stigma fastened upon hor almost from time immemorial in respect to Ireland by tho judgment of tho wholo civilized world; and, lastly, the restoration of Parliament to its dignity and Hhcioncy and tho regular • progress of the business of the country. ^ "Well, gentlemen, the first riuestiwn I . now put to you is. How shall Ireland be governed? There is another question behind it and involved in it. How are Enf land and Scotland to be governedf Y o u now bow, for tho latt. «'*• y"^v>,»'jppcially^__ the affairs of England and Scotland have been impeded and your imporial Parliament discredited and disabled.

" W h y U n c l e J o e l F a i l e d t o S e t t h e Old S p e c k l e d H e n . All the good people of Pogannac •would have told you that Uncle Joel Totter was one of the best men that •overlived; but even tho.se who liked Slim most were forced to admit that he "was "jest a little slow." liut to his wife ho was far beyond tin? "little." -As sho emphaticallyassorted,,- he was ~"as slow as molasses in January."1 It must have been one of nature'sestrange laws of "attraction of oppojsites". which brought this couple tog e t h e r ; for while Uncle Joel was slow, plodding, dreamy, Aunt Hannah was •quick, energetic, ambitious—a notable iiousckecper, who could do the work of two women while others were plann i n g what to do; whose washing was •on the lint; of a Monday morning looki n g like rifts of snow, long before most -of her neighbors had finished brvaki a s t . To her energetic nature, her husb a n d ' s slow movements and lack of Ambition were thorns in the flesh not unworthy, perhaps, to be compared 'With the Apostle Paul. The fifteen years more of life which Uncle Joel h a d seen, and a crippled limb—the result, of. an accident hvt boyhood—may have had much to do with his lack of •energy; but more of it was nature, an inheritance from his, mother, an intensely religious woman, who, the neighbors said, "could work all day in •a half bushel an1 never git out o'lit." And Uncle Joel's highest dream of Jiappiness was to sit in his arm-chair hy the south window, in the spacious o l d kitchen, and read aloud to himself by tl*e hour from the big Bible lying in his lap, his low, droning monotone driving Aunt Hannah to the verge of distraction. "Here Joel, I want a pail of water!" she cabled, one morning when he was thus reading, and she was' elbow-deep i n the floury mysteries of the bread ihfrwl, "an1 don't be all day about it; I ' m in a 'hurry.'' I "Yis, yis, H a n n a h , " Uncle Joel re- *raarked, reading along softly, his finger following his eyes over the page. " A n d they that wait on tho Lord shall ren e w their strength, they—" "An' they that wait on their wives *hall renew their youth, I reckon," A u n t Hannah interrupted, sharply. " I ' m certain sure you d have to be "born ftgin afore you did it. Come, git t h a t water, I ' m in a hurry, I tell y e . " "Yis, Hannah, I'm a-coming." "An' so's Christmas, an' it'll git Ihore first, I reckon. I wonder if there •ever was another sich a slow mortal in t h i s world!" And rubbing her hands free from jthe dough, sho caught up the. pail anil h a d drawn the water and returned before Uncle Joel had finished his all-imp o r t a n t chapter, nnd^ rising slowly tXK)m the chair limped across, the* •kitchen. "Why, tho p a i P t | « l l , H a n n a h , " he *aid. ' ' _ "Full, o f e d n r s e it'* full!" Aunt H a n n a h snapped. "Did ye a'pose I was a-goin' t'wait all day? I father1 guess they'd be a lot o' work done in this house if a body was to wait for you." "liut ye shouldn't be in sich a hurry, H a n n a h , " Uncle Joel interposed, mildly; "the Lord took six days t'make the heavens and the earth, an' t'aint best t' try an' do every thing in a minute." " I s h o u l d think he took six years to make you, a n ' t h e n didn't linish ye off till Saturday afternoon jest at a i g h t You've been behindhand ever since ye was born." "Well, well, Hannah, we won't quarrel about it; ev'ry booty can't be so spry a*s you be, an' the race isn't alius to the swift—" "But ye'll find the battle'll be t' tho strong—an' right here in this kitchen, if ye don't stir yer stumps lively." "liut what shall I do, H a n n a h ? " and Uncle Joel looked around in helpless bewilderment. "Do? Why, just go out an' set the old speckled hen. I've toldye to more'n a dozen times. She'd a had time t' set an' hatch whilst ye was gettin' ready t'- d o i t . " And A'int Hannah, catching up the first thing that came bandy, which proved to be Uncle Joel's soft felt hat, proceeded to fill it with eggs. "Here they be, and don't be all day about it!" she called, coming out of ^be pantry holding the hat With both hands and depositing it in the soft, fluffy depths of the feather cushion in the big rocking-chair. Hurrying back to the pantry, she returned, to her baking, while Uncle Joel hunted arouml for his hat and cane, whiuh were always missing when needed. "Good mornin', Miss Potter," came the next moment to Aunt Hannah's enrs, as her next-door neighbor walked into the kitchen without knocking; "busy as ever? What a master hand you be t1 work! I wonder if you ever stop long enough t' eat and sleep!" "Well, somebody's g o t t ' work where there's eight mouths t' feed an' eight bncks c' keep clo's on," Aunt Hannah answered;; wft-rrettt stopping a moment in her sifting" of sugar and measuring of Hour for her cakes. ov " W h a t did Mose have t' say for hinv se\l when Sally came back?" "Never said nothin', only asked 'cr where she was goin', an' she told him 'twas where she'd be better off than she'd ever been with him. She says he kinder hauled in his horns, as if he was a little afeared, an' he let 'er go without sayin1 nothin' m o r e . " "The mean scaunp! Lucky for him I wasn't his wife!" said Aunt Hannah, fiercely, ' f ' d a-learnt him what's what afore this time." "Well, ye see, Dave went an' told them factory fellows how mean Mose had used his wife, an' they'd alius had kind of a grudge against him, an' didn't want no better fun V t' scare him half to death; so they just rigged, up in old clo's, an turned their coats wrong side out, ' n ' blacked their faces, so's he couldn't tell none on 'em. Then they got a big bag o' feathers an' a kittle o1 tar, an' came up there an' tried to git Mose out. But he smelt a rat, an' they couldn't raise him. They pounded on the doors an' told him they'd b r e a k ' e m down if they didn't let em in, but he never let on he heard 'em. Bimeby some of 'em got the hogtrough an' threw it through the winder—" "Good for ' e m t " said Aunt Hannah, chuckling with delight. "That's the most sensible thing they ever done. A hog's trough is the best thing they could find for sich a h o g . " "They staid 'round there purty nigh half an hour, and one or two on 'em got in through the broken winder an' looked high an' low, but they couldn't find hide or hair of Mose. Arter they'd BASE-BALL INTRICACIES. "Did-ye hear what amuss-they had ,*er t' Mose Potter's, last night? ' "No; what's up now? They're alius harin1 a time there. I wonder how that woman can bo sich a fool as t'live with sieh a m a n . " "So do I. But this time t'was wus'n any o1 their quarrels. Didn't ye knovy 'bout the fellers from Dobbs' factory- R-comin' up t ' t a r an' feather Mose?" "My goodness gracious, Miss Brown, ye don't mean i t ? " And Aunt Hannah stopped in her 1 work of breaking eggs to raise her 'hands in astonishment. "Do take a oheer an' set down, and take oft'your bunnit," leading the way into the kitchen, and setting a" chair for her visitor. "Do tell us all about 'it."' Aunt Hannah deposited her two hundred pounds rather heavily on the soft feather cushion on the hugo rockingchair, and commenced beating her "eggs in a -rrraiberrv crock-bowl—she could not stop work even long enoirgh to gratify her curiosity—and the twotined steel fork with which she was doing the work had not the efficiency of the modern egg-beater. "Well, ye see, Mrs. Brown began, pushing the huge framework of pasteboard and gingham back from hor face, "Mose's wife took her tailor-work home yestertkiy an' got her money for it. Ye know Mose use t' carry it, and I he wouldn't let her hev the money for 't^ jest spent jest's he'd a mmter, an' .she an1 the children had t' go hungry half o' the time—for Mose n e v e r d bring nothin' in to speak on." " I know it; an' I've told her time'n ag'in she was a fool t'work so an' let that crazy lummox git hold o' her money," said Aunt Hannah, beating her eggs more briskly in her indigna'- dation. " H e ' d set behind the stove ail last winter an' sing 'The LordPervide,' an' wouldn't lift his finger t' pervide for his younguns himself. The hyper* prit!" "Well, ye see," Mrs. Brown resumed, "she le'rnt better'nt t1 let him carry home any work; so yisterday she an' J a n e took a big bundle out to the city, an' when she got back, Mose told her to give him the money, 'n' she wouldn't do it, He was mighty high over it, an' threatened what he d do if she didn't lot him have it. But she'd got her back up, 'n' ye know Sally's pretty kinder" sot whem she sets out. t' be, ' n ' Mose couldn't scare her wnth a cent. /She jest told him the money were her'n; she earn't it, ' n ' he shouldn't tech one penny on',t Then she sez he jestgraobed her by the arm an' throat, an' tried to git it, 'n' sho kicked ai>?/ pulled till she got away from him;,but her hair'd come down in the tussle, an' he grabbed her by that, an'/afore she could g i t away he'd pulled out a lock as big as my thumb.

" I wish t' goodness they'd a-ketched him an' tarred an' feathered him an' rode him on a rail out o' town. If I owed the Old Scratch a dozen sinners an' he .wouldn't take Mose Potter 'n' call it even, 1' cheet him out o' the hull on't! He's the biggest old hypercrit that I ever see." " T h e r e , there, Hannah!" Uncle Joelinterposed;"ffiildly,coming ont of the pantry, where, during the recital of his neighbors' misdemeanors, he had been hunting high and Tow for something he could not quite remember, " J u d g e not, lest ye be judged." "By their fruits ye shall know e m , " Aunt Hannah retorted, sharply. "An' if a man don't show nuthin' but hoggishness ' n ' hypocrisy, I dunno where's the sin in calling him a hog/ an' a hypercrit, an you needn't stana up for him, nuther. He's got n>6re devils in him than ever was cast out o' Mary Magdalhi', anyhow." " Well, Hannah, 'twas a'?wonian the Lord cast 'em out of. The BJble don't say as he ever cast seven djevils out of a m a n / ' / " No, he left 'em all in the men, an' they're there n o w , " was the triumpant retort. / Under this scathing rebuke Uncle, Joel retreated to }he pantry and continued his search^ " What in tbre world are you sputterin' 'round that butt'ry forp " his wife called^as the clatter of pans and dishes tit:st drew her attention to Uncle Joel's trespass upon forbidden ground'. "\yiiy, I'm look in' for them eggs, Hannah. Ye told me to set tin; old speckled hen, didn't ye? an' I can't h n d the eggs nowhere. "Mercy on us! And you've been all this time about it? I thought you'd set her half an hour ago." And rising from her chair, Aunt Hannah started hurriedly for the pant r y w'htw an exclamation of "O Mis' Potter, do see!" recalled her. And what a sight! There, in the feathery depths of the chair cushion, was tho old felt hat crushed as flat as a pancake, and all that remained of the doiien i^gA was a mass of broken shells, whites and yelks mixed in a manner not common in cake-making. Her dress was plentifully plastered with the mixture, and every movement sent drippings of it down to tho floor. In her eagerness to hear her neighbor's story she had aat down without looking behind her, and tho soft depths of tho cushions had given no warning of the mischief she was doing. "My goodness!" was all she could say, as she stood looking upon the horrible mixture. 4;Well, H a n n a h , " said Uncle Joel, *'I never thought ye was in sich a hurry to hatch them eggs that ye'd set on M e m yourself." And for the first time in her twenty years of married life Aunt Hannah had no retort ready; and the old speckled hen was not set that An I n c i d e n t W h i c h Yrorts* T h a t T h e y W i l l Nrver B « U n d e r s t o o d by ^.a-diea. My first serious mistake lay in taking a party of ladies to tho ball park. I asked them if they understood the game. They replied that they did in a general way. I never knew before what dense ignorance is covered up by that vague and unsatisfactory expression. We arrived at the park without exciting incident, save the temporary excitement of leaving a bill of large denomination at the gate. I purchased score cards all around, and explained briefly and courteously the intents thereof. The ladies said "Oh," and for about tejuv. seconds were deeply interested. Then they fell to looking around to see who were there and what they had on. Every few seconds a score card would slide out of a lady's lap. This kept me busy and served to relieve the monotony of waiting. The Detroits were practicing in the field aud Hanlon was knocking flies into tho suburbs. Presently he hit a terrific ball over the center field fence. Singularly enough one of the ladies saw him perform the feat. "Why doesn't he r u n ? " she cried, excitedly. "Why doesn't who r u n ? " I asked, in astonishment. "That little fellow with the club," she said. ' I / I explained that it was probably because the club overweighed him. This seemed to~satisfy her, and she resumed her inspection of the spectators. I discovered that the ladies were very much interested in the uniforms, and I observed with alarm a tendency to get the clubs mixed. It took some minuses to straighten the matter satisfactorily, and then the umpire called time. The umpire is a pretty busy man,- but he absolutely reveled in idleness that day as compared with my labors. The second ball pitched was a foul, which whizzed into the grand stand and came near diminishing my responsibilities by one. This necessitated a change of base, and we moved around in an agile manner, my perturbation being increased by a volley of sugges- TTons from the rear of " d o w n in front.'1- Again fairly seated, one of the ladies discovered that she had forgotten her parasol, so back I traveled, secured it, returned, picked up a score card or two 4,nd sank into my seat in a profuse perpiration. Then the questioning began. "Why do they keep taking off a n d putting on those m a s k s ? " "Which is tho pitcher?" "What makes them slide along on their faces?" "Which side is at the bat?" / "What is a foul?'.' "Isn't over the fence out?" These questions I answered with becoming fortitude and patience, but when the youngest and" daintiest lady said it was a perfect shame to dirty their- uniform by polling along the ground I gave her/up as a bad job. At the end of the first inning " I took the score cards'with some apprehension, which proved to be tvKH based. Tfduh~d'"thaf/'"three'""of the laades~ha-d kept the Kansas City score on tho Detroit side, and one of them had credited the home club with four runs and some sixteen base hits. I straightened out the score with some difficulty and was rewarded by the remark of tlve owner of the most complicated system of scoring that she "wouldn't have'missed seeing, the game for any thing." That was where we differed, but, then, I make it a point to be always open to reasonable propositions. —Kansas City Times. A Practical Communist. day.— Jennie i'oricr Arnold\ in llartj'or4 hmai. A Paris correspondent writes that as an American lady was driving down the Boulevard Haussman in an open carriage a man suddenly made a dash at her and tore from her back hair a valuable pin studded with brilliants. The fellow then bolted at a smart pace, leaving his victim screaming with fright. Some gentlemen who were passings by at once set oft' in pursuit, and after an exciting chase succeeded in collaring him at the end of the Hue Tronchet. They took their prisoner, whose name is Martin, to the nearest police station, and on being confronted with the magistrate he coolly explained that, being without work, he considered it the most natural thing in the world that those who had more than they, required should supply him with meat and drink. Unfortunately for the ingenious philosopher, the magistrate refused to acknowledge the force of his theories, and he was sent to gaol to meditate on the blindness of his fellowmen.— London Globe. Keep the Vines in Row. Every season when tho young vines and small fruits encroach on the spaces between the rows keep them back.

W h y M i s s D u l c i m e r Did M a r r y L o r d L e x i c o n . N o t Miss Dulcimer was a fashionable beauty; her photograph was in till the s h o p windows, and for several seasons she had excited universal homage and admiration. She was a strikingly handsome girl, fairly accomplished, and clever beyond the conception of most of her friends. For she affected a stately and dignified repose ot liian^ ner, which suggested a languid temperament, whereas, in fact, Miss Dulcimer owed the prominent position which she occupied in society entirely ti) her own energy and force of character. Her mother, a widow lady of good family, would have preferred to live quietly and unostentatiously upon her moderate income in some sleepy provincial town, and would have been quite content to see her daughter married to a curate, or any worthy young m a n she honestly loved. But 'Hilda Dulcimer had far different ideas from these. She had been ambitious from a child, and had early realized that she oouUI command the homage of the oth- «jr sex. She was no less romantic, perhaps, than most young girls; but in all hor day-dreams the ideal lover was invariably possessed of an immense estate, a town mansion and a box at the opera. In a word, Miss Dulcimer had always been ambitious of making a brilliant marriage, and in due course she deliberately set to work to affect her purpose. She induced her mother to take a pill box of a house near Park lane, iM an exceedingly unhealthy situation, backing on to a mews. T h e rent was ruinous, and the rooms were small And stuffy, but, as Hilda pointed out, the locality was undeniably fashionable. She proved, too, that a brougham a n d a dignified man-servant were absolutely indispensable adjuncts to the establishment, and completely destroyed her mother's peace of mind by com.- polling her to keep up appearances Jar beyond her means. But though the p o o r old lady lived in a state of abject terror of bailiffs and creditors, Hilda contrived that she should not be molested. Her success in the highest and most select circles of society was immediate and enduring. In many,little ways which her friends did not suspect, she turned this to account H e r f o w n s cost her nothing; her milliner's ill took the- agreeable and unusual form of a substantial check; and; in fact, almost every article of attire was supplied free by tradesmen eager to advertise their wares. She had no difficulty in disposing of her cast-off wardrobe at.highly satisfactory prices, and, i n addition to money thin saved and gained, she was always willing, for a •consideration, to bear public testimony to the efficacy of somebody's patcut complexion-reviver, or somebody else's incomparable tooth-powder. By such expedients as these did this clever young rady contrive to keop the the means for those necessary expenses which her career involved. Meanwhile, without the slightest apparent effort, she maintained the foremost place among tho beauties of society, was present at all the state balls and grand assemblies, visited at the houses of the highest nobility, and received marked attention from royalty itself. Many offers of marriage were made to her, but Miss Dulcimer calmly and disdainfully rejected them all. The fact was, though she would no*: have confessed it even to her mother, eligible bachelors of the wealthy aristocracy seemed very shy of taking a wife outside their own select circle. An En- ?;lish young lady, even though a proessional beauty, who could not aspire to their own rank in life, was apparently regarded* as quite out of the question. But yet Hilda Dulcimer was not disheartened, and for four seasons she patiently angled and waited. At length there ^appeared upon the scene a young noDieman, Lord Lexicon, who had recently inherited his title quite unexpectedly. He had served as a lad in the navy, and of late years had gained rather a reputation as an intrepid traveler and sportsman in far countries. He had been i absent from England nearly five years, when the news of his good fortune brought him home to assume the positerr* a n d responsibilities of a member of the Upper House and one of / t h e largest landed proprietors in £he Midlands. He was a frank, open, unsophisticated young maa-s^omewiiat simple minded, perhapsT but by i n r m e a n s a fool. His return caused rather a 11 utter of excitement among aristocratic mothers of marriageable daughters, for, with a few almost hopeless exceptions, he was the most desirable husband of the season. Their anxieties were, however, of short duration, as, from the moment of his introduction to her, Lord Lexicon appeared to fix his affections upon the beautiful Miss Dulcimer, and commenced to pay her the most marked and assiduous attentions. This proceeding was by no means approved of by the young lady's enemies and rivals. She had many of the former, unfortunately, and not a few ~ut the tatter. Lord L e x i c o n r e c e i v e d several friendly warnings regarding the--.object of his affections; he was told tfifat-.she was heartless, that she painted, that her hair was false, that her gowns w?re not paid for; in fact, his love was put to tho severest tests; yet such was this; young nobleman's infatuation tha;Hie utterly disregarded the advice that was tendered to him, and took the earliest opportunity of asking Hilda Dulcimer to be his wife. "Mother, I am to be Countess of Lexicon," exclaimed Hilda, a few moments after the momentous interview, with the nearest approach to excitement and enthusiasm that she had ever manisfasted. The old lady murmured her congratulations, and wiped away a tear with a tremulous hand. It was evident, however, that she was preoooupied and uneasy, and her daughter sajd^sharply: "What is the matter, mother?" " I have a surprise for you, my love -some good news,11 said her mother, doubtluTTv; * ' "What'is i t ? " "Dear Tom has come homo." "WThat, my brother!" To account for the somewhat unpleasantly harsh tone in which the young lady uttered this exclamation it must be explained that Tom Dulcimer, her younger brother, had shown distinct symptoms of being a ne'er-dowell. It is true that he had done nothing to disgrace himself or his family, for at seventeen he had been packed off to the Colonies through the influence of his sister, who foresaw tho inconvenience of having a near relative in England with Master Tom's reckless proclivities. She had never ceased to congratulate herself upon the wisdom of this precaution. "Good gracious! How exceedingly inconvenient!" Miss Dulcimer ejaculated, after a short pause of dismay. "My dear, I'm sure you ought to be very pleased," remonstrated her mother, mildly. " T h e dear boy has supported himself all the$e years, and has grown a tine, handsome fellow." "What did he w a n t Xer'come back for—especially ju^t-^iow ?" exclaimed Hilda, frowning; "My dear, the poor fellow has been ill, and 'he wished to see his old mother again," said her mother, beginning to tremble. "After all, why should he pass his life in exile? He has. never done any thing w r o n g . " "What good can he dp over here, mother?" said Hilda, seYereby. "You can not afford tqjeeep h i m . " "He has, a n appointment, my dear— a very good appointment," cried the mother, eagerly; " a clerk in the office of some company connected with Buenos Ayres, where he has been. Ho is to get £ l 0 0 a year and he says that he can live well upon i t . " "A clerk in an office in the city!" exclaimed Hilda, as her beautiful 'lip curled. "Mother," she added, sharply, "nobody must know this. Of course, I must tell Lord Lexicon/ but not till I know him better. Has T o m been here? Did he send his n a m e u p ? " "Ho has been h e r e , " answered her mother, cowed by her vehemence. "He did not send in his name, poor boy. He said that we were 'such dreadful swells,' and that his coat was shabby. He arranged with you when he went away, yon may remember, to call himself Trower—ray maiden name. T h a t was t a e name he g a v e . " "Thank go*Mness for that! T h e n the servants-suspect nothing," said . Hilda, more amiably. "Mother, yon MM^H fi'nn hr -nwt lmr 'n i o n r wiMnl find I muat p c ^ i i t e never, to brealhe'A_word to any one about having a son in England." "My dear child—" "Mother, you must consider m e , " interrupted Hilda. "If this were known, Lord Lexicon's family, a n d others who are jealous of me, might make mischief* a n d ruin every thing. What is Tom's address?" Mrs. Dulcimer gave it somewhat unwillingly, and half an hour later the famous beauty, closely vailed, alighted in a dingy back street in the neighborhood of Marylebone, and made her way up three pair* of stairs to her brother's aerial retreat. Her purpose, which she had concealed from her mother, was-to insist upon her brother Tom returning whence he came. To effect this she relied partly upon her strong will and the influence she used to possess over the lad and partly upon a bribe of a hundred or even two hundred pounds. With her knowledge of the prejudices of the aristocracy, and the precarious hold she had at present attained over Lord Lexicon's affections, she did not deem any pecuniary sacrifice within her power too great for the advantage of getting an*inconvenient brother out of the way at this crisis in her life. It soon transpired, however, that Tom Dulcimer had developed a will of his own also. The meeting between brother and sister can hardly be described as effusively affectionate. The fact was that the recollection of his abrupt dismissal from England on very slight grounds, at his sister's instance,' still rankled in T o m ' s mind, which was further prejudiced by the artless and touching complaints of Hilda's tyranny and selfishness which his mother's letters to him, for some years past, had contained. Hilda, on her part, remarked with disgust that her brother's hands wer<? not as white arid'soft as they might have been, that his manners were suggestive of the, rough life he had led, and in short, that he was not quite a presentable member of society. It seemed to be T o m ' s humor to affect a deference and awe of his sister which be did not feel, and Hild-a, throughout the interview, had an uncomfortable suspicion he was jesting with her. He politely bMt firmly declined to give up his situation and return to Buenos Ayres, but he raised no difficulty about consenting to keep in the background. " D o n ' t you fear, Hilda," he said, giving her a brotherly salute as they parted, " I won't trouble the noble swell you ar* going to marry, nor you either. Only when you arc turned off. I shall emerge from my obscurity and live with mother. That's understood." "Certainly, T o m , " said Hilda, smiling graciously, and endeavoring not to evince disgust at the odor of tobacco which his embrace imparted. "When I am married my husband shall obtain a post for y o u . " "Wr ait till I ask, my girl, that's all," said Tom, with an aggressive laugh'. So Miss Hilda Dulcimer was fain to be content with the terms her brother voluntarily submitted to, nor did he give her the slightest cause for uneasiness. Her mother, happy at having her son near her and seeing him occasionally, acquiesced in the conspiracy of^silenco regarding him, and as his "existencc 'was" not suspected by any one, no contretemps arose. Meanwhile five of the six months of the engaged period elapsed. Hilda's trousseau was in an advanced state of preparation, when one afternoon she found her mother almost fainting in her chair, with an evening newspaper in her hand. " M o t h e r ! what is the m a t t e r ? " cried Hilda, with an uncomfortable presentiment of evil. " M y dear child, a dreadful thing has happened," murmured poor Mrs. Dulcimer, carefullv avoiding her gaze. " W h a t , m o t h e r ? " " Your poor dear brother—" " W h a t has he been d o i n g ? " inquired Hilda, sharply, as she turned pale. " N o t h i n g ! He is innocent, the poor dear boy is innocent," returned Mrs. Dulcimer, firmly. "But—but—" Hilda snatched away the paper which her mother handed to her, and with outward composure, which dissembled her dismay and horror, read that her brother, under his adopted name of Trower, had that day been committed for trial on a charge of robbing his employers by means of forgery. " G o d help us all!" she* ejaculated. " W h a t a fearfully shocking thing!" " H e is innocent!" reiterated the poor mother, in tears. " I n n o c e n t ! " repeated Hilda, with an expression which, could he have seen it, would have been a wholesome revelation to Lord Lexicon. " A t least, he is committed for trial. I suppose that means something more than mere suspicion." There was a long and painful pause, during which Mrs. Dulcimer sobbed, while Hilda bit her lip till the blood started," as she reflected with knitted brows. " I knew it would come to this," Hilda said at length, gloomily. " W h a t a blessing I never tola Lord Lexicon." " I suppose you must tell him n o w ? " said her mother, nervously. " W h a t ! " cried Hilda, with undisguised a m a z e m e n t " I think he should be told," said Mrs. Dulcimer, uneasily. " I t will come o u t Of course, you and I must support the poor bov through his troubles. We must decline all invitations for the present." " M o t h e r , are you m a d ? " crii Hilda, almost with v i o l e n c e . > » T e l l Lord Lexicon! Refuse^Hrvttations! Why, mother, we m u s t a o nothing, either of us, t o g W e a n y one the least suspicioiiaf-tftls awful b u s i n e s s -__ Itw^ts^Mrs. Dulcimer's turn to give ,y to a display of temper now, a n d the poor, meek spirited lady astonished her daughter by h w resolute bearing. Hilda, tfhe said, could deckle for herself the propriety of concealing the matter from Lord Lexicon, and for her part she was determined to be loyal to her son. Hilda found it necessary to abandon vehemence and insistance, and to adopt plausible arguments to bring her mother round to her views. She feigned to believed that her brother was iniA»cent, and pointed out that to dxaw attention to his unfortunate position, from which he would doubtless be honorably acquitted, would be a mistaken polioy. It cost the astute young lady an hour's serious talk and- remonstrance to overcome her mother's scruples, but in the end she triumphed. Poor old Mrs. Dulcimer was as plastic as clay in the hands of her beautiful daughter, and she ended by reluctantly consenting to humor Hilda's wishes. It would be useless to attempt t o describe the agony of mind which the poor mother endured during the next few days. In addition to suspense and anxiety on her son's behalf she was compelled by her daughter to go into society and wear a smiling *raask over her woe. Hilda was relentless in allowing her mother no peace even to brood over her sorrow. The beauty was haunted by a morbid fear that any thing in the least degree unusual in the conduct or bearing of her mother and herself would give rise to suspicions which might ruin her hopes. She kept a very strict watch upon her mother, but in spite of her vigilance the poor lady contrived to visit her son in his cell and convey to him the comfort of her loving sympathy. This, and the finding of funds, by "secretly pawning her jewelry, to retain eminent counsel for his defense at the trial, were all that the unhappy woman could do. WheVi the prisoner was committed for trial the sessions were close at hand, and consequently the period of suspense was not so long as usual. It happened that on the day of the opening of the sessions there was a grand dinner-party in Hilda's honor, given by the old Duke of Middlesex, Lord Lexicon's cousin. In vain poor Mrs. Dulcimer pleaded illness and almost went on her knees to her daughter to spare her the agony of going into society when her son's trial was close at hand. The bea-.vtjful Hilda was inexorable; to begin w-ith, without her mother's escort she would have to absent herself also; but apart from this it seemed to be of the very highest importance fat such a critical time that they should appear among their friends as usual. Siie so impressed this upon her unhappy mother's mind that the poor lady ..suffered herself to be over-persuaded, and she accompanied • heir daughter with the bravest air she could muster. WJi#n the guests had ail assembled at Middlesex Lodge it was found that Lord Lexicon was late, and after waiting for him nearly half an hour it was decided to go down to dinner without him. Hilda, who looked her best, was most graciously received by even- one, and felt in no way uneasy at Lord Lexicon's absence, for his Lordship's habit of travel h a d rendered him a little forgetful of the exigencies of polite soeiety— In- fact, to be late-fur dinner was an idiosyncrasy of his which excited very little surprise. Hilda would have enjoyed herself perfectly but for vague apprehensions on her mother's account. It may be that she felt a twinge of remorse when she glanced at the ]K)or old lady's bloodless face and tremulous hands. She saw that her mother was in a condition of nervous tension and suppressed excitement which might culminate in a sudden attack of illness. When dinner was over, but before thejadies had left the table, the door opened and Lord Lexicon appeared. "Beg your pardon, Duchess; awfully sorry. Duke!" he cried, in his impetuous fashion, as he took the vacant chair next Hilda and gently squeezed her hand. " D o n ' t have dinner up for me. I had something to eat while I dressed." "A nice way of coming out for dinner!" laughed the.Duke. . " I will tell you what kept m e , " said Lord Lexicon, in a loud and distinct tone, for the old Duke at the head of the table was a little deaf. " W h e n I -wtt*4ft Mexico-about t w o years ago I chummed for a while with a very nice young Englishman, who saved my life at the risk of his own. Well, I lost sight of him, and it appears he came over to England a short time back and got into trouble. Quite by accident I found out to-day that he* was to be tried for forgery at the Surrey Sessions." "For w h a t ? " inquired the Duke, with his h a n d behind his ear. "Forgery. A young fellow, mind you," cried Lord Lexicon, waxing eloquent with indignation, "who is as honest as the day is long, and would no more commit a crime than yon would, Duke. I would have pledged „my right a r m , " he added, bringing it down with a b a n g u p o n the table, " t h a t he was i n n o c e n t ? ' — " W h a t is his n a m e ? " inquired some one. "Trower, he calls himself; and would you believe i t " cried Lord icon, with a fresh outburst of^inthgnation. "his lawyer told me-that he has relatives, near relatives, living here in London whohaveTall kept aloof from him, becAtrse they h a d n ' t the pluck to stajKr"by him. Imagine a poor fellow n his position being deserted by his neatest and dearest! "Not his parents, surely!" exclaimed the Duchess. . "His parents! Well, his fathei is dead, and his mother, poor lady, seems to have done what she dared for h i m , " said Lord Lexicon, in a gentler tone, •'As far as 1 could gather, it is a sister? who is to blame. T r o m all account* this young lady ' m u s t be absolutely: heartless and selfish." Amid the expressions of surprise and! indignation which this recital excited* Hilda Dulcimer, whose embarrassment only betrayed itself by a becoming flush upon her cheeks, stole an anxious glance at her mother. Mrs. Dulcimer was staring eagerly at the speaker with distended eyes, her face deadly pale, her frame rigid. " I pitched into Trower for not sending for m e , " continued Lord Lexicon, "but it appears he did not know me by my title." "Acquitted! Of course," r e t u r n e d Lord Lexicon impatiently. "The case only concluded about half an hour a g o , and that is what has made me late. But the jury never hesitated, and the judge said he left the court 'without a stain on his character.' " Even Hilda—in the midst of her dismay— was conscious of a thrill of satisfaction at this news, but when L o r d Lexicon had finished speaking she saw, to her horror, her mother uprising from her chair. The next instant the poor lady, in a sort of paroxysm of uncontrollable excitement and agitation, with clasped hands and upturned face, cried out in frenzied tones, which penetrated to every corner of the room: " T h n n k God! thank God! my s o n ! my darling son!" As the last w o r d s passed her lips Mrs. Dulcimer swayed and fell senseless into the arms of t h e gentleman by her side, and amidst a painful and embarrassed silence she was borne gently from the room. Lord Lexicon's abrupt departure on a shooting excursion to the Rocky mountains caused a great deal of comment. There was no formal announcement that his engagement was broken off, but during his absence Miss Dulcimer married a wealthy a n d fatuous soapboiler.—N. Y. Graphic. ASP1NWALL SPIDERS. The Big Insects Which Sometimes Coma ^ to t h e United States. "Look out for the tramps!" saidCorput, the fruit dealer. __ The Telegraph man was admiring t h e bright buff colqr of a bunch of bananas yesterday, when a big ugly spider crawled out and .ambled along on the counter. He was a bundle of d a r k - brown-fuzz about the size of your t h u m b , into which were stuck several long, black legs. He was a tramp all the way from Aspinwall. And, like a tramp who had stolen a ride under a freight car on the breakbeam, his legs seemed cramped from the long journey in the crevices of a bunch of bananas. The poor fellow was at a loss where to go. He was thousands of miles from home and friendless, for people do n o t t a k e kindly to big, ugly spiders. He was a tramp and in a strange country. " W e killed one here the other night with a body as big as a biscuit. His body popped like a: Thev come often in bananas, but we generally m a n a g e to kill them. «Up at the old store one made his escape and made his h o m e under the counter. Then another escaped, and for a long time we lost sight of them. One day we found a web under the counter, and on looking closer we found the home of the t w o tramps. They had raised a large family of spiders, and they were the cutest little things you would care to see. They ran nimbly into the web if you" made a motion to strike them, and many days we have watched them simply for the amusement. They caught every fly that c a m e within range, and now and then a b u g happened within their reach and varied their bill of fare. Although we k n e w they were dangerous pets we did not disturb them for the reason that they seemed to be industrious fly-catchers, and were never inclined to sting. One afternoon a new clerk saw one big fellow run around a corner of the counter, and as he had never seen a spider of such enormous size he imagined that to allow it to go at large was equivalent to turning a tiger loose, and h e killed the pet. The others ran o u t and for about an hour the new clerk had about as much as he could stand up t o killing spiders." "Do they ever bite?" "Yes, but it is a - r a r e occurrence. They fight like wild cats, and they a r e high-tempered, but they never trouble anybody unless aroused and teased. Although there are millions of bunches of bananas brought to this cenmtry every season, and many a thousand spider steals his way across with them, vou never hear of any one being stung.

"1 could hardly have hoped for this," the thought, glancing up at the great moon-faced clock abort her head. " In fcf/o minutes more we start, and the train only stops twice on the way down. No one is likely to come in now, and Oh, dear, dear, I am afraid I exulted too toon!" The fear was well grounded, for at that rery moment the door opened, and, though she saw no one but the big-beard* ad guard, who poked his head In and cleared a place upon the opposite seat, •be heard the shrill tones of a woman Mfcti in angry protest <Jl stall complain to the directors, I as- ••svfVSL A station-clock should not be M^ttPpst, and yours is at loast three mlnattrffl advance of Greenwlch time.

Right forward 1" Tbe door slammed; Something scram* bled in, the whistle screamed, the steam escaped with a roar, tbe train moved slowly on Its way, and Magdalen Vane found herself surveying her queer travel* ing*companion with puzzled and halffrightened eyes. A queerer companion could hardly have been assigned her by the most malicious fate. At first sight Magdalen thought that, despite her shrill tones and imperious manner, she mnst be the merest child, for the laree poke-bonnet was hardly on a level with the carriage window but there was an unchild like breadth about the shoulders, and the hands that rested on the^carriage-seat were those of a fullgrown woman. For a second or BO the new-comer stood In the centre of the carriage, glaring vengefully back at the man, -who had treated her threats so coolly; then, as the Iron girders, glaM^jroot, and brick and mortar walls were gradually left behind, she turned round with such abruptness that she met Magdalen's eyes pointblank. The sight seemed to displease the lraslble little lady : her face, ordinarily very large and white, with beady black eyes, and little corkscrew curia making a fan* tastlc Medusa-like wreath about the forehead, grew red with anger, and she cried In an intolerant tone— ^ " Worse and worse 1 they have-actually put some one in with meJ^Hfhall certainly complain to the directors." "Excuse me^-Magdalen said, with perfect coolness and good-temper, but also with a tittle flash of natural spirit, "I was _ln possession of the carriage—they put you In with me." The small woman drew herself up tin the must have reached the full altitude of four feet, drew her black brows together as though preparing to deliver some —altogether clashing retort; then, quite • . aee. suddenly, she seemed to change her mind, and, loosing shrewdly up into her face. broke into- a shrill eldritch laugh. "Why, so they did. And no doubt you were quite as savage when that clumsy lout of a gnard thrust me in upon you as I was when I saw you sitting like a mouse In your corner. Confess the truth now— were you not 1" There was something so keen and shrewd in tbe bright ugly face she looked down upon, that Magdalen would not have dared to venture a polite mendacity, even had the occasion for it been much greater. As it wae. she answered frankly— "I was very vexed, because 1 thought X should have had the carriage to myself all the way." "And I entertained the same vain hope. We are a pair of misanthropes, you see, tad fate has declared against us. By-theway, this is a second-class carriage, 1 »• f. " Yes, did you not know it •» Magdalen asked, smiling in spite of herself at the other's odd vivacity of speech and movement; and the little lady answered promptly— " Most certainly I did not; but it cannot be helped now. The fault Is all that abominable guard's, not mine." She shrugged her shoulders, and clam * bered into Tier seat, with an air of philosophical resignation to an inevitable ill tssftt at ooce amused and puzzled Miss Thee, "I suppose she has a third-class ticket, '^gsjft thinks she may as well profit hy tbe TMsVs lucky mistake," the girl thought. ''Poor little thing, she does not look tit to travel about in an uncomfortable fashion, though I suppose she is well able to take care of herself in her way. Well, she may call me as a witness that she did not choose this carriage, but was packed Into tt agdlnst her will. Perpaps I had better tell her so." She looked ronnd with the half-formed Intention, but a glance at the big white face changed her purpose. Her fellowtraveler was staring nut of the window, evidently untroubled by any fear of consequences and mentally at iter ease, though physically she must have been anything but comfortable. Magdalen gazed with a thrill of pity at the large feet that dandled uncomfortably within a few Inches of the floor. The woman had neither box nor parcel to rapport them, and on this, hot August day there Was of course no footwarmex in Its carriage. . * V HI •smnilar- if I dare after har mydMt," taetirl thought, divided bttwesn acuta com passion sou a sby sensitive dread of wounding where she meant to serve. "8ht will think perhaps that I hare no light to notice—and yet. oh. dear, how cram pad and miserable her poor little legs moat be!" Compassion conquered shyness and fear of misapprehension. With the laat thought Magdalen drew out the neat little desk in its trim leather cover, and held it out with a bright girlish blush and a Utile hesitating smile, that the woman aha ad* dressed thought very ingenuous and sweet. "Might I-may I offer you this I I t makes a capital footstool; I used it on the boat coming across—and these are HO high!" Tbe girl spoke raoidly, and a little confusedly in her graceful haste to explain, aud the stranger smiled a broad smile of approval "Thank you, my dear. You are what I call a kind and *en*ible young woman, and I did not think there was such a ram avis left among the flighty frivolous flirts of the present day. I will accept your offer with all my heart; for my wretched feet seem to weigh a ton or so each already. Ah, that is comfortable I" With a sigh of intense satisfaction she planted her large feet on the solid support that Magdalen deftly arranged for themv then bent her large head and cooly in* spec ted the Initials on the leather coves of the desk. 4,*M. V.,'" she said, meditatively. "Yonr initials, I suppose. Now, what does •M.Y.'stand for f" Magdalen hesitated only the fraction1 of a second over her answer. There was no reason why she should not give It and gratify the harmless if slightly impertinent curiosity of the woman she had obliged. Besides, after the obligation, refusal would be doubly ungracious; so ahe said with a frank little laugh— " If it interests yon to know, the letters stand for ' Magdalen Vane.1" " Um, rather a pretty name for a very pretty person 1 Do not blush, my dear: you saust learn to bear the truth, you know. I have learned to bear it, and i t la not quite so pleasant in my case as In yours." She finished with such a whimsical contortion of her features that, in spite of a very genuine and warm-hearted pltyr Magdalen could not repress a smile. "That's right 1" the other said/good* ternperedly. "I like to see that you can smile. Yon look so preternaturally grave just now, I was half afraid to travel with you; but you have had some great sorrow lately f" The shrewd eyes glancedf front the crape-trimmed dress to the pale, qnicj averted face, and, as- the girt did not answer, the woman went otv"wlth a touch of real feeling in her-*ohe— "Tell me something about it—about yonrself^my dear. If yon only gratify an old-woman's curiosity, you do yourself no ^arm." "None," Magdalen answered, with a little nervous smile: " but I have so little to tell, having been at school the best part of my life. I am an orphan, aud am going to a place called Craymouth, in South Devon, to stay with" my father's cousin." H Craymouth!" the other echoed; with a look of pleased surprise. "Well,, that Is a qtfeer coincidence too!" "Whyf Do you know the pface F" Magdalen asked eagerly, and the other answered with a curious twinkle 1» her eyes— "Yea—sffghtly. I have spent alf my life in its Immediate neighborhood, if not In the place itself." "And you know all the people there?" "Well, more or Jess—well, Ie9*, perhaps generally speaking; for I am not a very companionable person, and have but few friends—but I do know all the Craymouth names. Peruaps yon will tell me that of your father's cousin." "Talbot," Magdalen replied, watching the other's face as though she could read her future fate and the character of her anknown relatives there. "Talbot—Talbot! You do not mean the banker, I suppose V "Ithinkhehas something to do with the bank," the girl answered, with a little sigh. " Yon need not look so depressed, child; Mr. Talbot is a very considerable person In Craymouth—everywhere. Indeed. I believe, but in the domestic circle, where, if report sneaks truly, Mrs. Talbot reigns with supreme and autocratic sway. Have you seen, Mrs. Talbot, my dear ?" Magdalen shook her head. •'No; they are both strangers to mo. Only when my father died—he was killed in India in a hill skirmish ei^lit months ago—Mr. Talbot wrote me a very kind letter, offering to transact any business I might have." •• And you arcented t^ie oTer •" "Yes.

KDiNiiugtiH, June 19.—Mr. Gladstone formally opened the campaign for homo jrulein Ireland in thin city last night with « , powerful speech before a great audience i n Music Hall. Mr. John Cowen, chairman of Mr. Gladstone's election committee, presided a t the sneetinar and introduced the orator, who w a s received with redoubled cheering. The Premier's voice, when he began his- speech, «eemed less powerful than formerly. Hi* remarks were received with cheers. Mr. Gladstone began his speech bv say* Ing that Inkerinau was a soldiers' battle. Jt watt not won by a General's tactics or Ability, but by the soldiers' valor. Equall y were the present dissolution of Parliament and general elections the people'* fcattle. Referring to the seceding Liberals, Mr. Gladstone said the quostion irui whether the country would re «olve, with a strong sense of justice dind sympathy for Ireland, to compensate lor these defections, He was strongly convinced, he said, that the people had resolved to carry the day notwithstanding t h e defection of prominent leaders of the .Liberal party. This contest, he said, was if ought against Liberals by the officers of •their own army. The Conservatives were rantent to leave the work iu the seccder'a 3u*nds. Continuing, Mr. Gladstone said: "They call themselves unionists and ua •disintegraters. They wish to preserve the .paper uuion unaltered. We feel that it ashould be specially conserved so far as it is valuable. We seek the union of heart iand mind, which we are struggling to restore. It is desirable to speedily •close this great controversy for the autke of every interest in this country. Until this is done the position of .*dl parties will be deplorable. Public business will be interrupted and public conti- •dence shaken. Social order in Ireland will not be restored unless the people speak •clearly, manfully and decisively ; such as the question merits. [Cheers.] Do not lot :it be said that the nation is unequal to the task of dealing with the question. Some flinch difficulty. Some turn their backs in the hour of trouble. Xiet the nation not do likewise. Rest asasured that if the nation's voice be given iu "defense of our cause, when the contest is settled and the excitement has passe, 1 « w a y it will resemble the old questions of religious disability, parliamentary reform and free trade. The people will wonder why opposition wairraised: "It is important that the eleotors should ^realize the true issue, which is much disputed. It is a choice between opposite policies regarding Ireland, between opposite -principles of action, or a choice upon the -details of a large and complicated bill. Important journals urge you not to consider the policy to be pursued, but to entangle yourselves in the details of this or that particular • method of establishing that policy. Tho •question you are asked to decide is the proposition to establish a legislative body IU Ireland to manage exclusively Irish at lairs. It is a principle upon which you art • called to vote, and not details and particu lars or even a bill. I propose to reduce tho issue to a point wherefroin there can be no •escape." Mr. Gladstone did not believe that Scotland was doubtful about or adverse to ftomc rnle. He -saw enough during his progress to show that Scotland's heart was deeply and profoundly touched. Scotland's will was never more bent upon any vwork or policy of justice than it was to accomplish the present enterprise. The Premier spoke for an hour ;nnd a half. At the close of the address the audi- *inw indulged in prolonged and frantic plaudits. After the cheering had subsided a vote of confidence in Mr. Gladstone and his policy was carried amid .great enthujsiaam. ^,---^ LORD BALISDVRY AT LKED9. ' LKKDS, Jjiive^lO.—Lord Salisbury, the X^otiaoryatTvo leader, addressed an audi- «fcce"of 5,000 persons in this city las* - night on the home-rule issue. Fully 10,- O00 people applied for tickets of admiss i o n to the hall. Lord Salisbury began bin address by stating that in most cases of an appeal to the tribunal of the people there was a cause with an antago n i s t to defend it, '-but now," he said, '"we have a very living and vigorous .-.antagonist defending a shadowy, imma- 'teri&l, unsubstantial cause." The doctrine ot Mr. Gladstone's manif e s t o says the question is Bimply: "Will y o u govern Ireland by coercion or will ...you allow her to manageher own affairs?" I t would require great ingenuity to pack a •rmore delusive statement into fewer words. Nobody has proposed to govern Ireland • b y coercion. "''We may say that criminal law is all •coercion. If Mr. Gladstone is opposed tc fit we must presume that he sympathizes -with criminals, against whom effort* are i being made. [CheersJ All that we desirt us that the law be sufficiently business-like and efficacious to carry out its own bojbesfcs. Coercion means nothing else in our xaouths, and to compare that with the coercion that Mr. Gladstone exercised at JKilmainham is a mere juggle upon words." • {Cheers. ] Lord Salisbury referred to the division oi rsentiment in Ireland touching home rule. A quarter t o a third of the population abi. solutely opposed it. He continued : "I echo Mr. Gladstone's desire not to im- ¥ort religious bigotry into this conflict roteetants are likely to form a more cor- .rect judgment of the destiny in store fox ?them if the Home-Rule bill passes than its advocates are by mere unsupported Assumptions and the maudlin optimism -which passes for statesmanship nowadays. They have, though I don't defend what they hare done, given us s foretaste of tho inevitable .result which-is anarchy and standiag^oivil -war if England renounce* her duties and responsibilities. Separation is the end which Mr. Paraell means to attain. We should remember that Mr. Parnell said in .America that he would not be satisfied until he had destroyed the last link. It has been proved that he uttered this statement in Cincinnati. A separate Ireland mean* a country possibly hostile, which in a foreign crisis might join the « n e m y a n d would in any event beacon* . stant additional burden to the tax-payeri of Great Britain and a menace to our western coast. Local government and home rule have nothing whatever to do with each other. .

VANCOUVER DESTROYED, Twa> Reperts on the Huhjeet from tfee Hoow Committee on Ways and Means— The Majority In Kavor of the Abolition of Duty—A High Tax Advocated by the Minority. WASHINGTON, June 17.—In reporting adversely to the House Representative Groavenor's resolution providing for the restoration of- the tariff of 18G7 upon wool, the Committee on Ways and Means submits that the duty upon the imported wool is proved by testimony derived from both argument' and experience to be injurious to ail classes and beneficial to none. The report says: ••R drives from our markets many kinds of wool not raised here, but indispensable to the successful manufacture of woolen goods. It gives the European manufacturer the exclusive use of the«e wools, and therefore a monopoly of goods made of them, and consequently of the markets of the world. It contines American manufacturers to a restricted choice of materials and so to the production of a limited class of goods with which the home market is periodically glutted. It makes it impossible for our manufacturers to export woolen goods, and by confining them to the home market leads to ruineus fluctuations in prices, resulting in a frequent closing of mills and their sales at disastrous sacrifices. It prevents the home manufacturer from? buying the foreign wook which could be used in mixture with American wools, and thus lessens the demands for American wools instead of increasing it as intended. It gives the European- manufacturer control of atl foreign wools. It thus causes the importation of foreign wool to come in a manufactured form, and the more the duty has been raised the more disastrous has been the result to the American wool-grower. " It has furnished a good excuse for heaping heavy taxes upon the clothing of the people and it has taken front the weolgrower an amount tar exceeding any benefit which he might have imagined he would derive from the tariff without giving him that imagined benefit. It has reduced the wages of the working-men in the woolen manufacturing; it has ruined investors who were enticed into this manufacture by the delusive promise of a high tariff; it has greatly hindered our trade with our natural customers in South America; it has made clothing dearer in America and cheaper in Europe; it has injured all classes and helped nona "The committee, therefore, reconinfend that the resolution lie on the table, but, that the prayer of the textile workors in Philadelphia should be granted; that the duties on wool should be repealed and the dutiee-on. woolen manufactures be reduced te at least an equal extent" Representative McKinley, of Ohio, on behalf of the minority of the Committee on Wave and Means submitter! a report on the "wool" resolution reported adversely by that committee. The minority report says: "The majority report, while ostensibly made upon the resolution, is, in fact, '"a supplemental report of tho general Tariff bill and evidently intended us a defense for tha action of the committee in proposing to place wool upon the free list." The minority goes into un exhaustive argument bristling with figures to demonstrate that the growth und development of agriculture have not been obstructed by orotectiv* tariffs, and the report theu continues: "So long as American pro to -live tariffs operate bo foster and cherish Americanenterprises which are enabled to provide profitable employment to American labor so long should American tariffs bo upheld and defended, whethmi-a'ssaulted from influences at home--'Or influences abroad. We can not" be healthy and vigorous «js--a nation if tue source of powers—the people—is discontented, ill-fed, lit-paid, ana without tho comforts and deprived of the healthful conditions which 6hould be enjoyed by political equals. "It is not a question simply of whether we shall clothe ourselves in cloths manufactured from American wools, or in cloths fabricated from Australian wools, but how wiU the nation at large and the individual citizen be affected by the policy which makes the latter necessary, if not inevitable. It is not tho narrow question of the cost of the clothes we wear, or the food we eat, or the lumber which gives shelter to our homes, but what will bo the general effect of such reduced cost and all which must follow it upon our citizenship, and ultimately its influenco upon the strength and character of our institutions. It is a broader question than the price of the domestic or the foreign product and, while the former may''in some instances cost a little more than the latter, it is of fittle significance when measured by the comforts and advantages of the masses of our country, which can not be secured without the maintenance of an American policy which this proposed legislation is intended to 4overthrow. In some departments of industry the cost of production in this country is greater than that of any other, and to remove the protection which we secure by our tariffs will either surrender our market in those departments, to our foreign competitors or, if we would hold them,..we must diminish the cost of the competing products. Our duty therefore is not fimitud to the mere question of dollars and cents, but it is deeper and more far-reaching. It relates to the power and capacity of the people to perform their exalted political trusts. Comparisons can not be made with other nations. This is a nation of citizens, not subjects. Whatever therefore will secure to the laboring masses their full share in joint profits of capital and labor, promote the highest intelligence and largest independence, should he adopted ana become permanently a part of our national policy. Severe Earthquake in Nicaragua. ALBANY, N. Y., June _12^Mr~_JohnJ_£ Hotchkiss, a prominent manufacturer of ' v Birmingham, Eng., arrived here yestetday from Rialejo, Nicaragua. He described to friends in this city the frightful effects of a volcanic eruption and earthquake which occurred in Nicaragua on the day before he sailed from that country. There was a terrible eruption from the volcano Mo mo Totnbo on May 22. Tele* graphic information was received at Rialejo on the 23d, a few hours before the steamer sailed, to the effect that the City of Maagua, the capital of the country, had been practically destroyed by the violent earthquake which accompanied the eruption. The earth upon which the city was built soon after the convulsions began sank suddenly three feet below Its former level, All buildings of any considerable value were of course completely wrecked. It was stated that there was lose of life, but how great was not known when the ~ Pacific Mai! steamer left. Telegraphic intelligence from a town at the terminus of a railroad fortymiles from Rialejo was even more startling. The place was being" fast buried beneath hot volcanic ashes, and many lives had beta tort. Burning, of the Western Terminas of thm Canadian Pacific KaUw»*-T«a Bodies Recovered from the Kulns — Property Talued at 91,000,000 Devoured by the Flames. .> PORTLAND, Ore., June 16.—Referring t o burning of Vancouver, B. C, on Monday, the Orcgoniun'a Victoria special says: All day Sunday there had been a very steady wind from the northwest, and Drush-clearing fires on the Canadian Pacific railway lots were fanned to such an extent as t o fill the terminal town of Vancouver with amolfe. Nobody had, however, any idea of danger. Shortly aftor one p. m. several persons began to consider the situation a threatening one, but the smoke was so dense that they found it impossible t c direct their steps to the exact location of its source. Soon a stable near the Colonial Hotel was seen on tire. The alarm was given, but so skeptical were the people that they paid no attention to it for Vouio time, Tho wind by this time had increased to a gale, and fanned the flames to a mass of raging lire. One of tho first buildings to go was Macartney's drug store, followed by the--office of the •Vancouver News. The flames shot across Abbott street with astonishing rapidity and aim cm t before the people could realize it, the whole of tho western portion of the city was in a blaze. The excitement was now intense. Water street was filled with dense smoke and flying cinders, and people were hurrying with what effects they could gather in their haste to a place of safety. In less tinio than it takes to describe it, the fire had reached Carroll street. Some merchants in this vicinity and in the Ferguson Block wero engaged in conveying their goods to a place of safety, but so rapid was the conflagration that, before the teams wero loaded, the teamsters themselves were obliged to fly for tneir lives, All hope of saving any considerable amount of property was now abandoned and each contented himself with'hastily putting together what he could carry in his hands without seriously impeding highspeed, and hurried from the spot". But, even after leaving the houses the danger was not over, for, every road had become an avenue of fire, falling timbers and stumps on each side of the road glowing with tire, proving as serious a menace to the fugitives as burning houses of the doomed city. The dropping of the flames was us Biidden as their rise, and by G p. m. some advent u ro u s s p i r i t s h .uFalready hfiufotheir way along the roads of the destroyed citji', and before dark tha work of searching for the bodies of tlioBe overtaken by lirey elements had begun. In a short time tho incinerated remains of several persons had been discovered. U p - t o 10 o'clock Monday morning,, ,-nhfe bodies, some of which wero burped" beyond recognition, had boen- ' found. There is some uncertainty about the exact number already found, aa in Homo cases a luuttdlul of charred bones was the only "indication of a.human life being lost. One of tiie Searchers naid he thought the number could be truthfully estimated at twelve. The ireneral sentiment of the people appears to be one of hopefulness, and a determination at once to begin the reconstruction of the city. Some have already g o t their buildiug material on the ground. A thousand men are at work clearing up tho debris for the railroad company. Twenty contracts for rebuilding have been already letl Many men lost their all, but are determined to start up again. Tho property loss falls directly on the pioneer element of tho new city. Hundreds of pcoplo are camped out. There aro meager facilities for the relief of tho sufferers, but the people of this city are especially open-handed in their efforts to relieve the distress. Prompt aid from tho Canadian Pacific railway is expected. Most of tho burned frame buildings will be replaced with brick structures.

One of the Examining £hysclans Denies ThHt Bavaria's Unfortunate Monarch TY»«t Crazy — The Official Autopsy — Strange Hints from Vienna. MUNICH, June 1G.—A careful, thorough and scicntilic autopsy has been made OK tho body of King Ludwig. It'rovealed au abnormal structure of the skull and the existence of a degenerative process in the membranes of the brain, due partly to chronic inflammation. Dr. von Schleiss, formerly physician to the King, denies, however, that the King was insane. He adds that though he disagreed with the official report of the examining board of physicians declaring the King insane, still he felt compelled to keep his views to himself, "for," says ho, "if I had published a statement in opposition to that of the court doctors I should have shared the fate of certain other persons and been at least consigned o prison. My opinion as to the King's condition is based on ray experience as his Ehysician since his birth. My colleague, >r. Gintl. agrees with me." At a plenary meeting of the upper house of the Diet yesterday, at which all the Princes, two Archbishops, Count Holstein and the Cabinet were present, President Frankenstein alluded in feeling terras to tho death of King Ludwig, all present standing in silence. Baron von Lut«, president of the council, read Prince Luitpold's message asking the house to assent to the regency, which was unanimously agreed to. A committee of twelve was appointed t o deal with the situation. One of the King's last remarks was: "I can suffer deposition, but will not outlive the assertion that I am mad." Public discussions of the King's death are notably heated, and the popular sympathy is with the King. Several persons have been arrested for speaking disrespectfully bl Prince fcttitpold and his party. The Bavarian Ministry have tendered their resignations, but they have not been accepted.

Lately, at Grata, a war broke out between the glovers and the tailors which became so bitter as. to recall the grotesque wrangles of the bourgeois of the middle ages. The tailors contended that, by virtue of the new law, the glovers had no longer a right to make the leather breeches worn by the Styrian mountaineers. The glovers replied that they, were breeches-makers as well as glovers and possessed the privilege of furnishing the Stvrians with their breeches for centuries, and it was the tailors who were engaged in an illegal trade. To this tho tailors rejoined that if it was a privilege it was abolished by the new law, and they would not allow it to be re-established unless the Emperor should decide that a pair of gloves and a pair of breeches were identical. As the aft'air threatened to lead to bloodshed his Majesty intervened. Imitating the wisdom of Solomon, he decided that the privilege of making the leather breeche^ should thenceforth belong to the tailors and glovers both— "to the tailors by natural right and to the glovers*by tho right of tradition."

About 70 relaw *0 ^h « friends of [r. and Mrs, D. fKau\">*ett gathered U-ssa ^ 3 = at the home of UayREtfter last evening and gave them a joyous surprise, it being the 2Mh anniversary of their marriage. After the company was all assembled Rev. F. M. Coddtngton. j made somevery fitting remarks coo-., / eermng the occasion, which was firilowed by remarks and the re-marriaire ceremony by Rev, H, Marshall (tad the kissing of the bride by Dr. Haxe.) The Doctor here explained that he bad expected to perform the ceremony, bftxt the minister got in ahead ot him. He then, in behalf of the company, presented Mr. and Mrs. Bennett with a few tokens of esteem, which consisted ot the following; Set dishes, rocking chair, silver cake basket, set silver tea spoons, silver mounted pickle castor, granite coffee pot and tea pot, two silver napkin rings, silver butter knife. oil chromo, firlass cake stand and n a ^ l J ^ V h a g a t kin, 1 doz. napkins, china bread and milk set, and a mammoth Wed-cake for Dave. Mrs. Bennett spoke bar thanks in a few feelinar words, and 3fr, Bennett also spoke his pie'ce—as far all tbey would let him. Jokes and* ccnsf gratulations followed, and the innet man was well provided for in tbe way of edibles and ice-cream, and all went gay as'a marriage bell till the smajfr! hours of the night were reached, daspite the stormy weather without. It was a merry time, and we think tbe thus honored couple will always char* ish with fond remembrance their 25th anniversary. The success ot the affair Is due to Dell and Nel'ie, the instigators of tbe celebration, and tbe many Lfriends who awa^sw'^^Bp n^^s^paw sawaa^av w^i^y 4W*j flMtilMlWM4t tfce following staadiig aaaviy. committees were appointed. of judtrment. but, married masculine.

G r a p h i c Story of Russian* hilism a n d Misfortune. Ni- The full moon shed-its mellow Iight '©ver one of those mild, dreamv landscapes of Southern Russia which are so common, &o uniform and yet so varied in their simple beauty; a broad stream, its rippled surface glittering in the silver rays; sleepy willows bathing their overhanging boughs in the water; theendless, undulating steppe, veiled in a dreamy mist, extending on the left bank of the river, on the right of which the ground rose in a steep slope, -covered with fruit trees resplendent with the white blossoms of spring. On the crest of the slope, where the trees clustered the thickest, a high wooden roof was visible, shining in the moonlight^ and from behind the foliage the ruddy light of a lamp-lit window cast a slanting ray into the silvery night. The ray of light was the only trace of human life. Not a sound came to disturb it except those voices of the night which in themselves seem to form a pari of silence—the chirping of the crickets, the frogs' choir chanting their evening song in the reeds below, the sleepy bark of a dog in the distance. A peaceful repose seemed to have spread over the earth, bidding rest to all troubled, aching hearts, peace to all hatred and strife. -And yet the man who paced up and • down'the short gravel walk in front of the house hardly felt the influence of the peaceful scene. His step was troubled and unsteady, and,though his deportment,' evidently through long habit, was as stiffhsnd "rigid as that of •a soldier pacing the parade ground, yet the head, covered with snowy white hair, was bowed low on his breast. The fingers of his clasped hands worked nervously and occasionally a suppressed exclamation or a heavy, half-subdued sigh issued from between the firmly-set lips, with the thick, bushy white mustache overshadowing .them. The martial figure of this old man was well known throughout the whole province of Ooltava, and whenever General Savelieff, or "thjj^eda General," as he was familjarrycalled, appeared he was gladJ^Tand respectfully greeted by evj^ryone, without distinction of^agc^ of class or of position. .Peasant or noble, young or old, aJLieH -ran instinctive respect for him, all came under the influence of that peculiar atmosphere with which an honest life, a straightforward nature surround old age, winning the hearts of the honest and awing knaves into respect. After resigning his position in the army at the oiose of the Crimean war General Savelieff retired on his small estate as poor a man as when he entered the Government service, and resolutely lefused to accept any other office. "I am too old for these times," he used to answer. ''My Emperor is dead (he meant the Emperor Nicholas), and I do not understand all your new ways And reforms." Military discipline and the will of the Czar, when he considered as being an emanation of the will of God on earth, had been the only guiding principles of his whole life. Benevolent towards all, indulgent for all faults and shortcomings, on these two points he was unflinchingly severe. "A foo of the Czar is, a foe of God,11 he was wont to say. When in 1847 he had to superintend the (ixecutiqn vt a s^called political criminaJ-^a cnild nineteen years old—he prepared himself for the task as tor a holy sacrifice, and went to the communion on the eve of the bloody day. On the other hand, tKYs rigid, fanatical loyalty did not in the least impair his naturally honest, straightforward, benevolent disposition. The pooc of his parish venerated hira an& ^ven his enemies £troid not h,oJp> respecting the character of a wan Whom they hated as tho ready^bol of a brutal iyrnmiy. ^ ^ y He had married young the woman he had loved, when yet *x school-buy. Eight year* their union remained childless. When at length in 1H47 a child, a boy, was born, the father's joy knew no bounds, but was of short duration, for a few weeks after the event the mother died. Since then all that there was of gentleness and love in the heart of the lonely, rigid soldier was shed on that one boy, the little Andrusha (diminutive for Andre), and yet he rarely gave vent to his feeling and his son had scarcely any occasion to become aware of it. Strict obedience was the General's rule in education as well as in politics; the hierarchy of sacred power culminating in the Czar began for him in the father. Thus this strange man lived on, proud and honest, without fear or reproach, one of the last true knights of a decaying and corrupted autocracy. From the solitude of his modest country scat the old General neither saw nor cared to know how the ideal, the deity lie had worshiped had long a«fj fallen to pieces and lost the last glitter of its former prestige. For him the Czar was still the father of his people, the ordained and ^hallowed representative of God on earth. Needless to say, ho had educated his son in precisely the same creed. From his tenderest infancy Andrusha had been isolated from'the outward world and lived with his father a curious life of the past—the life of an old man, not looking forward into the dazzling uncertainty of the future, but seeking in the remembrance of tho past all that is good, sacred and joyful. IJhe boy grew up behind a Chinese, wall apart from all the joyful excitement, the busy uproar of his generation, "heavily laden," as the g¥eat Russian poet LermoiitotYsays, "with the hoary wisdom of his iires." When Andrusha was fourteen years of Age his father brought him to St. Petersburg to the Corps des Pages, the tfm military school of the Empire. On taking leave of his son in the recepi tion-room of the school the General for the first time in his life betrayed some weakness. He clasped Andrusha in his arms and whispered: "Be a good bey, become an honest soldier; remember you have got an old father whose life you hold in your hand. If you should ever bring shame on our name I shall die." The boy felt two heavy, burning tears fall on his brow, and bewildered, amazed by this unexpected outburst of a feeling be had hardly suspected, he threw both hh arms around his father and broke out into a lit of wild, uncontrollable—sobbing. All the pTission, all the love which had been hitherto chilled in his young heart b}' his father's repulsive seycrityT seemed at that moment to stream out at once, shaking his bqdyffoin hc?dto foot, and mingledjwrth' a half-conscious feeling of pky-for himself, for his cold, bleak ehwThood. And thus father and son parted. During the four years of his studies Andrusha but rafery saw his father. The journey to Poltava was a loiig one. The net of railroads which now.coivnects the South ot Russia with the capital did not exist even in the wildest dreams of a loyal subject of the Czar. Traveling was .slow and expensive and General SaveliefTs fortune less than modest. When at length at the end of his studies, which he accomplished brilliantly, ti»e young artillery officer, Andrei lvanovitch Savelieff, came to pass the long vacation'with his father in the small country house of Poltava, the latter was deeply struck with the change in the appearance and temper of his son. Instead of a merry, somewhat silent but healthy and blooming boy there sprang out of tne pejskladnaya (mail, cart) the General hjid^awaited wita such throbbing Jjnpatience, an earnest, pale maivw-tth a nervously expressive, de^piyimarked face, with a fiery, piejeihg and unflinching gaze— those young faces only to be 6und among the Russian generation of to-day, a face telling a tale of deep thought, of premature suffering and of a great tormenting love. And the boys temper was changed too. Of his ^former awe, mingled with an impulsive tenderness towards his father no trace was to be found. He met the latter ectfitlly, but with a certain mien of independence and manly dignity which struck the old General with utter amazement, though it pleaded him on the other hand to find in bis son something akin to his own iron nature. Thev met no more like father and son, but like two soldier friends, one younger tlvan the other, but both hardened in tho great battle of life. It was, however, precisely this resemblance in both tlwir natures that brought them further apart than ever. Both were not slow in detecting that they had no interest, no idea, no aim in life in common with each other. While the son was hiardly able to answej-eorrectly all hi? father's queries arrout the whereabouts of this or th^t^General, the newest patterns of uniforms, or the most recent events in the life of the Imperial family, the father felt but little interest and showed still less understanding for the young officer's erudite explanations o'f *the newest improvement in artillery or the projected reforms in the military administration. bad—other studios impression from that incident than that his son, though a capital soldier, was aGziiewhat of a bookworm. In autumn Andrusha returned to St Petersburg and entered the military academy. He passed rapidly one grade of the military cur«er after the other, was in 1870 promoted Captain, the Shipka Pass affair, during which the young artillery officer rendered signal services, bringing him the dignity of Colonel and the grand cross of the St. George Order. At the satne time his name became wildly known in scientific circles. He became editor of one of the best military reviews of St Petersburg, and his house was the gathering-place of the best and ablest representatives of civil as well as military intelligent circles. Thus years went on. The great Nihilist movement broke out, holding Russian society in a constant state of agitation and terror. The storm reached even tho old General in his solitary retreat. His exasperation against the "miscreants and murderers" knew no bounds. He even went so far as to write a letter, addressed personally to tbe Czar, proffering his services for the "good and holy cause." He never received any answer. The great number of young nobles implicated in the conspiracy was what especially appalled him. "Have all those young knaves no fathers with honor enough in their hearts to kill the vipers they have nourished in their bogom?" )JQ used to . tipnoral C*l4QI£d him back with an im exclaim when tbe papers brou£ut to] peVToiis Gesture. him the name of some new aristocratic me," he gapped. "criminal," And then he added in an undertone: "Thank God! thank' God!" thinking of his son, and what a blessing it was that he had turned out such a serious, hard-working, brave soldier, "without any newsense about him." Then came the culminating point of the revolutionary hofrbr—the Winter Palace explosion. The old General's indignation knew no bounds. At the same time a strange, apparently groundless feeling of anxiety for his son, from whom he had not received any letters for some time, seized on him. " l a m growing old," he wrote to Andre, "and would like to see you, perhaps for the last time. Try to* get leave of absence and spend a couple of months with me." The son had obeyed the father's wishes, there he is now, pacing to and fro the gravel walk and crunching the paper he holds in his hand with a nervous grip. " A few hours," he mutters, "every moment these people may come and take him away. 1 mutt, I must speak to him, hear of him that he is innocent." Having formed this resolution the General raised his head and walked back into the house with a firm step. There was still alight in his son's room when he knocked at the door. The young Colonel opened at once and on seeing his father's troubled countenance exclaimed: "What is the matter, father?" "Read that," the latter answered, giviuor him the letter. Andre became as pale as death, but his eyes shunned not his father's piercing gaze when, on reading the letter, he looked up to him, "Andrusha!" the old man exclaimed, in a tone of unutterable anguish, and clasping his trembling hands as if in prayer. "Tell me that this is a lie! Speak, answer me before God!" A long silence "followed. At last the answer came in low, firm tones: "I can not, father; for I have never told a lie!" "You—you—are" The eyes of the old man dilated, his hands grasped the air convulsively and he tottered back to the wall. Andre rushed forward to support him, but the And this night, the 16th of ^defend yours May, he bad-arrived at Dubrovka—ibis | "Not again* was the name of the Savelieii^state. The same postilion who-mid brought him from the nearest railway station was also the.bearer of a letter for the General -""The latter, however, more J^oudied and agitated by the meeting ^vvith "his child" (as he still called the bearded Colonel) than he cared to show, pnt the letter mechanically into bis pocket without looking at it, and then forgot all about it. Long after midnight, father and son having emptied a couple of bottles of champagne* of which the old General had always a small supply in his cellar, both retired to rest. On entering his bedroom, whera his old orderly Matveitch awaited him, the General remembered the letter, and, drawing the lamp nearer to where he stood, broke the seal. He first rend, the signature: "Anton Podbiclsky," His brows contracted as if a pa'mful recollection had cast a shadow ,.oyer them. "What business has that man to write to me?" he muttered. Po sky was a Polish nobleman^wfib had formerly "been the General's schoolmate. As- a veryj?orung man he had been implicajtedm the great Polish insarrectiorTof 1830, and had purchased ardon from the Russian (rovei'niheiit by betraying some of his assoeiates. Since that time General Savelieff, who hated all traitors, even if they had rendered service to tbe good cause, had broken off all relations with Podbidsky,. while the latter, rising-rapidly, soon reached a prominent and in- "Don't touch "Back, back " At this moment a knock at the door was heard. The General went up to it with a steady step and locked it. Then he approached a closet in which he kept his fire-arms, opened it, drew out of one of the chests a pair of pistols and placed them on_the table, uttering in a hoarse whisper: "Choose!" "What do you mean, father?" "Choose, Ttell you—there is no time to lose!" , > The Colonel remained motionless, leaning againstIthe table. Two minutes of terrible anguish passed- ill silence. At length the General took up one of the pistols aud-fetreated a few steps and pojntetTk at his son. "Colonel"Savelieff," he exclaimed, elf!" against my father," Andre answered, in a low, Vibrating voice. One moment more of breathless suspense. Once more the knock at the door was heard, louder than before. Then a sln*t -and-^ndre_fell to. the -stm- which engrossed him, other books, not" treatises, on artillery, which he read without ever showing thetii to his father. Once the latter^ coming unexpectedly intojhis son's room, saw the titles of two-of these books, "The Life and W-rttings of Ferdinand Lassalle" and^ "Commentaries on John Stuart Mill's Political Economy."

His huge form shook and tottered like an old oak before the last blow of the axe which fells it to the ground, but did not fall. His eyes took a glazed hue, his feet sank beneath him, but with a last, almost superhuman effort of an iron will he steadied himself, went to the door, unlocked I it, and seeing a gendarme officer on thejbreshold, whispered " "•You have nothing^imfre to do here; the criminal i.sniHftshed!"

COLLECTIONS A SPECIALTY. HOWELL COMMENTS. From the Republican. Just before noon last Saturday while the T. A. A . & N . M. ballasting train was returning from Byron the engine j umped the track. The flat cars, which were being pushed ahead of the locomotive, were brought to a sudden halt with a fearful jerk, and a coupling breaking, they rushed on their course again. Sitting on the forward car were conductor Henrv Meyers, James Lamoreaux and deputy sheriff Martin L. Davis. These men were thrown from 30 to 40 feet, Lamoreaux escaping without injury. Mr. Meyers struck on a pile ot loose balhistiriir sand on the side of the track, but rolled partly over th« rail, the trucks of oife car passing over his legs before he could throw himself out of danger's way. Mr. Davis probably struck on the ties, for his back was broken, a bad hole gauged in his head and other severe bruises sustained. The first cars passed over htm on the rebound, rolling his body along in a horrible manner, the break rod not being higli enough froni the ground to clear him. When taken out he was conscious, but lived only about 20 minutes. He seemed to realize his condition, asked tor a drink of water and requested ! those at hand not to move him as it gave bun great pain and h§,imfst soon die, anyhow. The^iirjfired man and the remainsj^f-Mr. Davis were brought to tpjivrrbn a larry, the accident having occured near Musson's Lake, about 5 miles north of Howell. Mr, Mayers was taken to his boarding place, where Doctor Bell and Wevsinger amputated his rigbt leg (which was hopelessly crushed) just below the knee, and reduced the fracture of the leg which was broken, also below the knee.

Gates, unloaded it ot the old D. K. Glenn elevator at the depot. It was just time for the passenger train and as the train pulled into the depot Mr. Lawson lett the team standing without even being tied and gave his whole attention to the train. The team became frightened and started off up the street at a lively run. leaving the wagon box and two hind wheels a little way up the street. Mr. W. M. Horton was going up the street if a carnage, making h is regular morniiiflrbrip with his milk. The top of his carriage being up he did not realize that he was in dinger until he found himselt. his carriage and milk cans being promisciously mixed up in a heap upon the ground. No one could tell just what transpired for tbts cloud of dust but when it at last subsided Mr, Horton was found to be unhurt and was using h^s best endeavois to prevent his own horse from running away.

She has just got rid of a very pretty governess whom she accused of flirting; with her son, and in the emergency—for her children are the most detestable, ungovernable little wretches, and could not possibly be left to their own devices for even a few days— ahe no doubt thought of you." It was a probable, though not a pleasant conjecture, and so poor Magdalen t h o u g h t She did not attempt to answer it, but sat drearily planning out her future life in the unknown place and with the unknown people anioug whom it be spent. work was painful and profitless; imagination could not paint a prohplcture, when it was so naturally unassisted by the slightest knowledge of facta So by-and-by the girl gave up the hopeless effort, and gazed out with tired unappreciative eyes at the rich and varied panorama now unfolding itself before her ; while, with equal persistency and far more active interest her companion •tared at her. • Pagdalen would have been slightly djjpiifd con Id she have guesaed the 'VMffcts that were at work in the busy aWattt behind that large white mask. •*8he is pr etty, very pretty, and looks gentle, lady-like, and good—worthy of a better fate than Mrs. Arthur Talbot's drudge. How it I were to exert myself • Bah! What a miserable idiot I am—how many people have I taken 'an interest' in, and exerted myself for, only to be ungratefully ridiculed or grossly deceived ! Why should this girl be any better than the lest f It in so easy to look good when one h a s the meek forget-me-not eyes of a Madonna, a glory of golden hair, and a pearly rose-tinted skin. I am too old to be the dupe of my own eyes !" She turned away resolutely, strong in her new-made determination not to look at or think of Magdalen again ; but in the very act of setting herself more at her ease her eyes fell upon the footstool desk that had made her journey so much more endurable, and the big black " M. V." on its cover seemed to stare at her like a w r t t e n reproach ; hev eyes softened, and her thin set lips relaxed their rigid line. *' Yet that w a s - a n unselrish act, "poor child," she thought with rfhiek compunction. "She only knew of me that I was old, and cross, and afflicted. Which of the others would have endured that test t Not one—not oiie." She spoke the last words aloyd, and with unconscious vehemence. Magdalen, thinking herself addressed, turned round, and her surprised glance recalled the other from the dream-world in which she was wandering. " Did I startle you ?" she asked with the queer laugh that seemed necessarily to preface every speech of hers; "I live a great deal alone, and for laek of better company «et into a way of talking to myself as I talked then." Magdalen smiled, and, her faint curiosity satisfied, would have relapsed into silence; but the other would not this time allow the conversation to drop. "Well, young lady," she went on briskly, "you and I have not much cause of complaint against that officious guard, or porter, or whatever he calU him«elf; after all, we have spent a long afternoon not unpleasantly together." "Very pleasantly indeed!" But this mild conventionality hardly seemed to sattsfy her exacting hearer, who said, with a savage little frown "Say no more than you mean, child. Truth ;is a pearl beyond all pike—you would much rather have been alone !" "Well, perhaps for part of the time," the girl admitted with reluctant veracity, *nd a faint blush; "but afterwards " "Afterwards you found me not quite auch an ogress as I looked ? Well, that is as much as I have any right to expect; but I found you so pleasant a companion that I do not quite want to lose si^ht of you, even when we reach our journey's end. We are to be neighbors, you kuow, hnd you will not have too many friends »t Craymouth, at any rate, just nt first. , ,.„„,,„„ ,,„«..„.,,, „ W i a you come and see me sometimes, Miss { the waiting period Vane r" There was a touch of eagerness, almost, as Magdalen thought, a touch of pathos In the curious question. All the lonely girl's feeling prompted her t o a n s w e r i t with an earnest assent: but, recalling the unmeasured terms in vfailch her new acquaintance had a tittle while hack denounced the woman whose bread she to eat and under whose ^roofsJWK-tvus to dwell, she felt that she rnj}sWpeak under limltatatlons, at lea "With alln*jr"ireart," she answered, with acp*dlallty that almost hid her emjment—" that is, of course, if Mrs. Talbot » "Provided Mrs. Talbot, does not object !" the other finished with scornfullyuplifted brows. " That proviso was quite unnecessary, my dear young lady. Mrs. Talbot and I are old enemies; but she will be very happy to allow you or any of her charming daughters to become little Mi*s Muff el tt guest, And yon will hold a much higher place In her esteem if you tell her that little Miss Muffet is your chosen friend 1" She spoke with A disdainful passion, a fierce energy, that WHS out of all keeping with net af^ies7[tir~loolr and playfnlsonnding words. Maedalen stared at her amuse Miss MunVt, whose spiritB rose wonderfully after this. She a»ked no more home questions, and volunteered no more disquieting information, but chatted so pleasantly of the place and people that the girl felt quite sorry when they reached their destination. " Here we are!" Miss Muffet cried, stretching her litf.e limbs and thrusting her big face out of the window. " Well, my dear, I suppose we part here for the present." "I suppose so!" Magdalen echoed, with a little siuh. as she began to collect her various packages, and brace herself for the ordeal to come. She could only give Miss Muffet a half-hearted attention now that the crucial moment was at hand. The train came to H stand-still, a porter jerked o|>en the door, and then stool still, apparently transfixed with astonishment at the slaht of Miss Muffet. " Beg pardon, my lady," he said, recovering himself; and, touching his cap, with deep respect, ho added, "but I looked along the carriages, and thought you could not be in the train." "Is there anyone hereto meet me ?" Miss Muffet asked, acknowledging the porter's obsequious attentions in snch a slight and careless fashion that Magdalen, who had been an unnoticed witness of the scene, decided she must be well used to such thincrs. ., " Yes, my lndy. Jenkins is here with the enrriuge; but he was just going away." "See that ho does not go, then. And you,child,.is there*wi one to meet yon?" It was a question that she herself coul 1 better answer than the desolate girl who stood, a stranser in a strange place, with her boxes beside her. and her travelingbag in her band. And, as the beady black eyes glanced over the narrow platform and searched out every figure there, she did answer it with an nncry negative. "No, there is no one. I suppose they think you will divine your way, and you have never been in England before !" " Not since I was a child," Magdalen answered, with a brave effort to smile, and a wild longing to cry: "but, no doubt, I can get a carriage for hire at the door." "No doubt—or, on -an emergency, yon might shoulder your trunk and walk," Miss Muffet remarked dryly. " B u t I think on the whole yon had better trust yourself to me. Peargpp, «<»«•> thnt th* younglady'fl luggagVls taken to Melinn House. I will drive you home,-my dear." And, before Magdalen could niter a word of gratitude or remonstrance, she was hurried out of the station and, being comfortably seated in a well-appointed and luxurious denble brougham, drawn by a pair of well-matched grays, rapidly driven down the narrow hilly streets to where white Craymouth lay between the grju?n hiljs and the silver sea. A pretty and picturesque place always, it looked a fairy city in the rosy snn«et glow: and,'gazing down upon it for the first time, the girl's eyes filled with quick unreasonable tears. She turneM her head' aside, but Miss Muffet saw the flash and the mb>t~8ncceed each other in the large yipjg|ieyep, and made her odd mental comfnent on them. "The others never felt the beauty of the place like that," she decided, with her queer grimace nnd nod. " I think—yes, I do think—I may interest myself in her." But she kent her cosrltations grimly to herself; and the silence was hardly broken until the oirriage drew up at a big ostentatious looking gate, on either post of which was inscribed in large letters, "Mellnu House." , "Well, good-bye," Miss Muffet ssid, cutting the girl's broken phrase.of jthauk* short and squeezing her hand tightly, thoughsheseemel rather anxionsto hurry her departure than to detain her now. " Nonsense ! I don't want thank*, child ; I detest them. Krepup your spirits; I fehall see. you again sooner than you think." Ami with this promise, hurriedly and rather nervously spoken, she gave the man orders to drive on, and was nut of sight before Mngdalen had obtained admission to Melina House. Mapdalen knocked twice without any response. She knocked again, anil h> this time her summons were answered by a loutish page-boy, who had evidently sp<>nt in Btrngcrling ln;'o a in a bewildered way^then said gently, and really thinking that her tars had played her some fantastic trick— / " I beg your pardon ; but I do not think j quite canuht your mnne." / " Little Miss Mu iTet " - t h i s time /there could be no possible mistake about the words, which the speaker enunciated with slow distinctness, and absolute gravity.

To every native-born or naturalized citizen of this grrnt and glorious land of the brave and home of the free-born eagle, there is no day in ihe calendar fraught with eo muoh and *o diverse interest. T h e r e is no uso talking, tho F o u r t h of J u l y double-discounts ,any thing in the line of a holiday yot familiar t o the American mind. It is on the Fourth of J u l y only t h a t the American heart makes i t a most formidable demonstrations of tj»triotiBin and "shows up what it can d o . " And the American heart, by the way—not t o speak boflstfully—js capable of conside r a b l e . All it wants is a chance; and t h a t •chance the F o u r t h affords. The F o u r t h presents as many different -phases as the moon, according to prejudices, favorable or otherwise, through which it is observed, and these depend largel y upon the age, nsYves and property involved of the person conducting/the obk «ervation. Some, it must be confessed, do n o t possess t h a t patriotic spirit which s h o u l d temper their judgment. Many, it as possible, look upon the national day as * necessary evil—aa grievous as the ret u r n of a lady's birthday after forty; Borne ihail its approach as the harbinger of ex- -quisite delight—the glad tidings of gseat j o y ; while many, it is probable, diligently strive to persuade thoinselves t h a t it is a blessing in disguise, deluding themselves *rith the fanciful idea t h a t somewhere iu rials holiday there lufks an indescribable i pleasure which only the continuous "fizi" -of 'Squibs" and other distracting agents »'prewcnt them frowi-diBcovering. To such' ,-a* fekus make a chimera of Four^throf July /joys, it is scarcely necessary to remark t h a t their expectation's are never realized; t h e delusive yarTbf powder-smoke and sul- ^phurouj8'-t5Hor8 scarce ever rises sufficiently pty reveal the hidden joy* or dispel the /illusion. * T o those who look upon this glorious anniversary merely aB an aggravated - o u t b r e a k of feeling and fiie-crackers, it is probable t h a t no ciaRS is more conspicuo u s than mothers. The regulation Americ a n mother, it may be said without exa g g e r a t i o n , looks upon tho F o u r t h as a terror, a sort of epidemic of punk, powd e r and disfigured small-boys; or an impersonated destroyer of youth, sizzlmg with hot breath and red rockets, going . a b o u t with "nigger-chasers," and hor- *riblo gun-wads, seeking small-boys to devour. The average female's conception of , t h e instruments of destruction used by t h i s hoy-exterminator, it can not bo denied, are somewhat vague; she does not /know whether it bo punk or gun-wads t h a t i n s t i t u t e the most formidable 'demolishers of boyish thumbs and ears, •or whether rto be "squibss" or torpe- •docs t h a t m o s t insidiously puncture t h e youthful flesh and despoil tho .comeliness of the childish countenance, bht she has an idea t h a t -*ny of the fiery mediums through which the exuberance of the Young Amerixain Gnds vent are wretched abominations, likely to "go off' a t any moment, and she Abhors them accordingly.' In this, it must b e admitted with chagrin, the American m o t h e r does n o t entertain t h a t noble and . unselfish devotion to country t h a t actuated - patriotism, or mow a swath through battling columns and d"io protecting the body of a fallen chief or king—In no longer emulated by fathers in real life, in their own persons, nor is it looked upon with especial faver by them when exhibited by sous; indeed, iu most cases, it appears to have become distasteful to fathers to see their sons shoot off thoir oars And maim themselves in working off, with cannon >»nd crackers, the wild frenzy ol their patriotic devotion. Old maids and old bachelors—two classes of people totally unlike and yet in whom there appears a strange analogy— art?, equally, with fathers and mothers, averse to Fourth-of-JLilys. The explanation of their disaffection probably lies iu the fact t h a t their temperaments won't stand the racket. To tell the truth, the pleasures of Fourth of July seem, to the greater part of the race, idealistic and illusory; then; JB a sort of effort t o get some fun out of what isn't a bit funny. I t is like fooling with an electrical machine. So t h a t the only portion of the population t o whom the Fjourth of July comes with real unadulterated delight is tho young—and this means especially ~ THK 130Y8. Christmas is more properly tho girls' holiday, b u t tho Fourth eminently belongs to the boys. Thero is no doubt t h a t in tho F o u r t h of July "Young America" finds a fullness of joy—an illimitable, absorbing, satisfying pleasure—that knows no counterpart. T h a t this joy is peculiar t o and inseparable from-' the day itself is manifest from the fact t h a t there 1B not a eent's worth of fun in firing Are-crackers the day alter the Fourth, and the only enjoyment t h a t attaches to it a week or so before is in anticipation of the surpassing joy t o come. This anticipation is like t h a t which precedes a picnic or a school vacation, only magnified t o about the four-hundredth power. There never was a boy yet in the full vigor of a boy's tireless physical possibilities who did not wish "by gol," t h a t tomorrow was going to be the. Fourth, and who did not wish further t h a t every day for a week-^was-^g6ing t o be a " F o u r t h , " making assort of series of parental "terrificatiotis" and juvenile hilarities. (It is Bcarcoly necessary to remark that there never was a parent who did not heave a sigh and thank his or her'stars t h a t the F o u r t h was safely over.) If Borne boy could have been a boy from the first Fourth of July celebration up to this onehundred- and-tenth recurrence of the national patriotic convulsion, it is perfectly safe to assert t h a t t h a t boy would have lost not a single iota of his joy in the celebration, and would come up fresh and Hmiling (if he hadn't got killed off) t o this anniversary, as ready and eager t o "ram down," '•totich off," etc., as ho'was the first day he ever "let one go oil in his hand."

They got seated, the chil- Tdren scattering over the whole side of tho car. J u s t as Jones had got settled down to tool and wipe the perspiration from his brow, and tho bell -was ringing for the train to start. Mrs. Jones discovered that she had forgotten the tickets, Zncheus was out on tho platform, and Maria had her linger squeezed in the window. Jones made a dive for Zacheus and disconcerted tho provender basket; Mrs. Jones "hit for" Maria and knocked her hat out of the window, whtlo Nebuchadnezzar cried and jumped up and down on a fat lady^s toes.

Earl Cairns is better k n o w n in this city as Lord Garmoyie, and w a s popular here t w o y e a r n a g o a m o n g a certain class of society.

Earl Cairns has large estates in Eng l a n d a n d Ireland, s o entailed, however, as to preclude h i m from raising money on them. H i s income is also £10,000 a year, and it is all he h a s in t h e wide world t o l i v e upon. His expenditures h a v e been as high as £20,000 a year, and his creditors are importunate. It cost Lord Garmoyle's father ¢150,000 to settle w i t h Miss Fortesque. Miss Grant is a daughter of Mrs. Beach Grant, of this city. S h e is about t w e n t y - t w o y e a r s of a g e and w a s introduced to N e w York Bociety t w o winters a g o a t u p a r t y g i v e n a t the house of her mother.

McPherson & Sons had a wagon which carried a drawing of Mr. Wm. M'Pher^on, the senior member of the hrm, as he appeared at work at his anvil when he rir.st began business in Howell (we tbimc. some 40 years ago.) Upon the wagon they also displayed samples of goods kept in the various branches of the mercantile business in wh'ch they are now engaged, and as an advertisement they threw out seersucker garments and shirts to the multitude,-who eagerly carried them off. As to the people attending the Howell celebration we are unable to give any estimate in numbers. The crowd w.as as large as any place the size of Howell could well accommodate, the streets being literally alive with bumttfl-betRgs. Their street parade and trades procession was grand and elaborate: the oration by Col. L. F. ("op-eland was pronounced a masterly one by those who beard it,* the balloon ascension came off as advertised and the daring acts ol the aeronaut were much applauded; the sports and games gave good satisfahon, and-*'quinipleplexels! "Italian Band," ect; created much amusement- the music was good and plenty of it; .the arches and decorations on the streets were grand. Tiie following from the Livingston Republican but. echos the sentiment of a vast amount of neopi'- in this vicinity: -•The Republican so far has refrained from engaging in the nominating business, having suggested not even a single nane for honors be fores tho, ing state convention.

M.Paerson this county possesses the timber for a powerlul, a faultless eandidate, We cannot mention his name authoritatively, as we have no doubt he would object to being coasil^rad tor any oai;o, but we can say that he possesses, all the requirements of a stronsj candidate and a noble omVial. While an ardent, hard working, liberal, never-kickover- the-traees republican tie has always been unwilling to accept4*enors from the party he has served so well. HJ is the Kind of a man whom an office must seek, and therefore the the kind of a m m th.3 oJi;e needs. Mr. MePherson is at the zenith of a bu-y, usfful and prosperous life; an energetie, opea-heart/a man. popular with all who know him; a clear visional, unimpeachably honest man, who, once engine J in an unJart.aking never says die; a man of the masses with a record as clear as a perfect summer sky; a broadminded, aggressive man whoso nomination would stir up an enthusiasm in this part of Michigan that would contribute heavily to the l.rumph of the entire state ticket. The executive character ot the man is nicely portrayed by the well know aggressiveness ot the extensive mercantile rirra of which he is an active member. We honestly believe that the best interests of the republican party would be subserved should there appear on its ticket this sentence: 'For State Treasurer—Edward Q?

INJUN BAPTIST. >\ Career of a Mail Who Wont About Lightlug Matches Until lie Uuvame a Nuisance. Injun llaptist never had an cnomy until hi} stumbled upon one. He came from no one knows where, though it has always been suspected that ho was an Indian Territory product. He is well acquainted in the Nation, seems to have Indian blood in his veins, and looks more or less like a red man of the improved order. lihe oldest inhabitant can not remember when Injun Baptist was a smart man, but a great many people here knew him when he was .smarter than he is now. lie always hail a cloud on his brain. Simple, docile, credulous, he was in earlier times a sad wreck of border civilization". Nobody ever interfered with him. He came ami went among roughs, desperadoes and* outlaws the : same as among men whoso bonst it was that they were honest. His. long absences created no comment, and when lie returned a "Hello, Injun," was tho only greeting that he received. He would toil laboriously when put at Work, and would not leave any job that he had undertaken until, exhausted from hunger and lack of sleep, he would wander oil' not: to return. When children iirst appeared here he took a great fancy "to them. They rode him around like a donkey, and he seem never to weary of their tyranny* According to all accountable never exhibited any signs of^-iiiental power but once. On (imKof his periodical visits to the SKtfion he fell in with a party of desperadoes who^wcre- on a marajudlng expedition. Some of them w him, and, thinking they might make use of the "fooush," as they called him, they persuaded him to ac- . company them. Whatever they asked him to do he would do uncomplainingly, and as a hewer of wood and drawer • ot water he proved himself of great value to his companions. One night Injun was left in the outlaw, camp, near the Canadian, with orders to remain there . until they returned. The horses were all br'dled and every thing was in readiness for flight, but the unfortunate who stood on guard perceived nothing extraordinary iu the situation. An hour o r two later the men returned, and one of them, calling Injun to one side, led him far enough away from the camp to point out a house that could be dimly seen iu the moonlight, and with instructions that he was to go there .and remain until they called for him. he darted oft'.. Injun made his way to the house, walked around it once or twice, and then, seeing an open door, entered. AH was dark within. Lighting a match, he peered around, and, seeing nothing, he advanced a, few steps and lighted another. In a corner of the room was the body of a man drenched in blood. Once again Injun drew forth a match, and, lighting it, he turned around to fall, over the prostrate forms of two otfrer men. His matches were now gone, but while he was mechanically searching his pockets for more, it is believed, from the story that he afterward told that one of the victims who yet retained consciousness recognized him and told him to go for help. However that may have been the fellow who never before seemed able to. act intelligently on two ideas in succession set out alone and without waiting for daylight in search of a neighbor. How long or how far he tramped was never known, but he did not abandon his search until he had found—assistance and led the way back to the cabin. The sight that there presented itself Was enough to make the stoutest heart quail. Every thing in the house indicated the desperate nature of the light which had taken place there. The walls, the ceiling and floor were spattered with blood, and the three men, now dead, were frightfully mutilated. Injun showed how he had entered the place, and finding the stub of a match on the lloor he exhibited it with pride, and by motions and grunts demonstrated how he had groped his way around in the horrible place. The herders who had been summoned took in the situation at a glance. 1'rom Injun they learned something of the size of the murderous band, and the nature of the work done indicated clearly enough that revenge rather than robbery had been the motive. Communicating the facts to the proper authorities, it was not long before a posse was-on the trail of the murderers, and in a running light which afterward ensued between the two parties two of , the desperadoes were killed. Injun found his way back here in the course of time, and was made, a great deal of. The sympathy of his old friends was aroused, and many of them went out of theirway to compliment him and do him kindnesses. " Injun Baptist getting smart now," he would say when questioned on the subject of his adventure, and every body would admit that he was telling the truth. After a while he developed a habit of going around with matches in his possession, lighting one occasionally, and while it burned or the stub remained in his" lingers appearing to be searching for something. For a time people smiled pityingly at Injun, thinking that he would soon get over the passion, but they, were mistaken. It grew upon him, so that, instead of going through his performance, as at first s c e m e d l o bo the case, for the benefit of others, he got to prowling around at night in dead eartest, " No place was, secure from his intrusiotv. Ladies going down cellars would iind Injun thoxe striking matches. Men 5 eoing to their barns would encounter him, always mysterious and always with a mutch. Late at night he would be seen prowling around the streets with his dickering light in hand. He would follow people home, stvikin matches at almost every otep, an when they had closed the doors of their houses in his face he would h a n g about the yard, striking matches under the trees and bushes, and peering into the grass as if looking for something. His friends bore with him patiently for a time, but at last his performances became so much of a nuisance that they were very reluctantly forced to cause his arrest. He has been examined by physicians, who have pronounced him non compos, and the places which have known Injun Bapiistso long will know him no morn forever.—PottsviUe {Tex.) Cor. iV. Y. Sun. FASHIONS FOR T R A M P S . Current Style* niul Ktlquette tor Noble KultfhU of the Koail. Hats this season will be. worn with open crown and the brim more or less depressed. "~ The general costume will affect general appearance of neglige w quite charming. Trousers are worn^oiiite lonsr—in fact, agood whHc<^inlessthe "oldclo' " business is^J>risk. - 0 The^ashion of wearing a splinter in luHrof a suspender-button is now out of date, a horse-shoo nail now being considered thectrfrect thing. The.'hair is worn very long this season and with a decided tendency to disorder, which lends a picturesque air to the face, The rumor that soap and water would be extensively used this season by the perigrinating fraternity proves to be without foundation. The fashionable coat this season, as heretofore, will be the high-cut minis terial, which will be worn close-buttoned to the throat' during the fullmoon period to conceal the absence of a shirt. It is allowable, however, to wear them open during and immediately after the dark of the moon, if the wearer lias been able to discover a loaded clothes-line. Tourists who hunt watermelons and chickens after sunset should note the fact that the latter are still served,with the usual bull-dog-and-shot-gun dressing- on the side. Then1 is no change in the style of "striking the back door for a handout. " It is now en regie to wear one boot and one shoe, instead of a slipper and an overshoe, as heretofore. The trouser- leg should be worn-inside the bootleg, as it gives quite an appearance of chic to the traveler when entering a new town. It is no longer a la mode to sleep in a city bastile, but rather to secure a lirst-noor room in a hay stack, thus securing hot and cold air, water and light, to say nothing of plenty of room and a line view of thoadjacentgrounds. Ties are out of date, except those made of hemp, which continue all the rage in the West, but all members of the fraternity will protest most vigorously and emphatically against wearing this style. Cuffs are mnch worn this season. The fashionable style is terra cotta colored. The beard is worn full and untrimmed while in the rural districts. It is permissible, however, *o shave if you can discover a barber who will trust you, but no thorough tourist will permiL himself ever to pay for it. As a tourist dies every week, it is now stylish to wear the linger nails long and dressed in deepest mourning. This innovation will cause but little inconvenience to the fraternity. Collars are w o r n more reversihly and chalked the same as last season. A tuft of hair projecting through the., crown of the hat gives a bi-'arrc effect' Mis-match suits arc much affected by the bean vioih/e this season. —E.

Last summer, when ho was invited by the manager or superintendent of t h e Soldiers1 Home cottage to occupy t h a t house, ho declined, having a s t r o n g conviction against the propriety M using a building maintained by tiki contributions of the army. Tho WliH*^ House becomes anion.otonousre>idehO0* for one who Is contined toJt*rfour walls and the almost constau^fisits of placehunters and anxii>trs officers. To find a place notj-oo'remote from the Executive Mansion, out iiPlirenjountry, t h e President drove about on a prospecting tour, and ,a modest little gray stone house on high ground, from the front of which atrextensive view of the hiU* of Virginia, the Potomac river, aturrhev capital was obtainable, arrested hla »tv tention. After soinenegotiations it was purchased for him at a cost of $21,51)0, and the deed was registered in his name. It is a place with a long but not important history in the office of r e - corder of deeds. It has been variously Qained "Pretty Prospect," "Kofceilale* and "Forest Hill," but the httterdesignation is the one by which it is to be known. Tins houso is constructed of ru^rtSTe, square, and .with a sligh.tly pitched roof, and with an e\ton- . sion kitchen, with servants1 rooms above. On the parlor lloor are parlor, library, dining-room, pantry a n d kitchen. There are live chambers, moderately spacious, well lighted and ventilated, on the second lloor. Th«' piazza on the south side, fronting the road, eammands the best view, ami was. an attractive* feature to the President when he lir.st saw the place. Near by is'-'Woodbiy." formerly the homo of Philip Barton Key, and not far away is the country place of Secretary Whitney, which has been known as "Grassland.1* Madame Iturbide. who married Count Iturbide, formerly Mexican Minister, has a place in the neighborhood. T h e country near by is not al.t>gether attractive to the Northern eye. accustomed to more fertile farms, greener lields and more luxuriant trees, but for the purposes of the President the place is admirable. It is not his intention to occupy it as a permanent residence even for the summer, unless it should happen to prove attractive to Mrs. Cleveland. He contemplated only the occasional resort to it in the extremely hot weather, when the temperature is always higher in the city than it is outside the line of asphalted pavements, and whim he feels compelled to apply himself to tasks t h a t ought not to be interrupted by casual visitors. On such days as those he had in mind, when the city is sweltering, and w o r k in the White House is out of the question, he believes that he can go to tho broad hall at "Forest Hill," and, seated at a table over which the unobstructed breeze has full play, devote himself uninterruptedly to a good deal of serious business, which would be diffieult to expedite in the White House, open as it is from morning until night to every person who chooses to call —•> liar per'1 s Weekly. ••• * • • « • • • L I N C O L N M E M O R I A L S .

All of the furniture was used by Abraham Lincoln, either in his house or his lawoilice in Springliehl prior to his departure for Washington, D. C , to be inaugurated President of tho United States. In the collection there is> the old oilice desk and book-case, the. oldrinkstaud. ten well-thumbed law-books; one. volume of the statues of Indiana, the first law-book that Lincoln evePi read, and which belonged to David Kurnham, his friend and companion in Indiana from 181'J to 181)1: one lc»f from his exercise-book and his boyhood signature; six hair-cloth parlor chairs; one marble-top table; one mirror set in a gilt frame.; one hearthrug; one walnut cupboard: the old mahogany-veneered sofa which was made by hand at Springliehl iu 1837 by Daniel E. Ruckel, on" Mr. Lincoln's order, and used by him until Februai, 1861; the old hickory chair in which ' was seated when informed of his nost! nation to the Presidency; ono carriage cushion and a photograph takon of him in May, 1858, during the celebrated campaign between hin\ and Stephen A. Douglas. The photograph represents him with his hair very m u c h rumpled, and the story in connection therewith is to the effect that when in the photographer's studio one of his friends observed that his hair waa combed remarkably smooth. " T h a t ' s a fact," he replied, "and tho picture w o n ' t look like m c . " With that he ran his hand through his hair and made "it look natural.

Two little girls came running out on the verandah, looking very hot and dishevelled, as though they bad been disturbed in Borne wijd romp. At sight of the stranger the elder of the two drew back oppressed by awkward shyness; but the younger, H handsome girl of nine or ten, came forward with a stare that was as bold if not as embarrassing a* that of her brother. '•Who is it, Frank? H o n o t k n o w her," she said, in a loud cheerful tone. "If she is one of your friends she looks very nice; and Ftoeard ma and Flora say the other . day you did not care to be civil to la- -- * " Y o * are a pert, rude little girl, Kitty ; $ i d Blanche, in her way. is just as had. 1)9700 not know that when your mother fa. o a t It is your place to welcome hef guests f This is Miss Vane." Blanche colored at the rebuke, and extended her limp band in a helpless 1mlfh ear ted fashion, but the unabashe 1 Kitty •hook back her bronze curls, nnrt pirouetted gaily on the steps as she said, with a saucy laugh— "Miss Vane does not carry her name like a label, and we could not tell her by Instinct, as I suppose you did, Mr. Frank. Besfcles, »he is not a guest, she is to be our governess, you know ;tna naid so this morning." '•Iknow that I shall box your ears if you do not learn to behave decently, and hold that magpie tonzue !" the young man Raid, in savaee disgust, and with a quick side glance at Magdalen's pale sad face. "Blanche, take Miss Vane in and give her a cup of tea, for Heaven's sake; it is of no use s.jeakinsr to that monkey1" Blanche did not much relish theltask he gave her, but there was an authoritative ring in his tone that for the moment quelled even the dauntless Kitty, and that her meeker elder sister never dreamed of resisting. So she led the way into the lonx lor? verandah-shaded room, which should have been so picturesque and pretty, but somehow was not, even in the eyes of the girl who had so small an experience of comfortable English home iife. Magdalen looked round her with a little shiver : and Frank Talbot who had followed her up the terrace steps, and now stood framed in the open French window, shruzged his shoulders, and said impatiently— ^ " When will you two cease yoqr tomboy tricks. I wonder; Set that chair straight, Kitty. Did you ever knowyoung ladies who am used themselves in such a manner in the drawing-room before, Miss Vane ?" Magdalen only smiled as she took the tea-cup .that Blanche rather thrust into her hand than bffercd 1KM-; an I Kitty, as she stoopetl to raise the plush and satin ehair that Jay with lee;s elevated in the oenter of tha room, said pertly— "You are determined to let Miss Vane know, whnt she has to expect at once, Fvank. She muBt have a good idea of us already. Now. by \\'nv of a change, suppose I warn her against yon." Frank Tul hot twisted hi* moustache, and answered, with rather a couceited look.— "Unfortunately for me your conduct will concern her nmro than mine. I am afraid Miss YMIC will not have much to do with me. Kitty." His eye* sought MM Galea's fair troubled far-e as lie spoKe, and his words were addressed much more to her than to hi* s^Jer; but, it - w.-is iho unabashed K:tty who answered them, with her ever-ready and aggravating <:i£sile. "Well. 1 d'Ki't know; mamma says Miss Metcalfe ha I a great deal too mucu ! Does she not, Blaiwhie ?" - The youn\r man's facs grow scarlet, and' Magdalen felt her own burn in indignant sympathy. . hy and wretched as she was —and with •jvery .second her heart aeemedTJo grow heavier, the faint hope fainter still—she felt that sha nvist at all costs make an effort to turn the convers.ition into'H more becoming channel. "Will your mother be very lon« gone, do you think?" she asked addressing Blanche, who sat glowering at her across the tea-pot, and who seemed in her silent awkwardness the le,ss objectionable of the unprepossessing pair. But the result was not encouraging. Blanche answered only by a frightened scowl and an incoherenfr^tuXterJthat seat her younger sister into hysterical agonies of amusement, ' "Oh, Blanche, you will kill me!" she gasped, between the shrill peuls of her mirth. "Cannot you trust yourself to answer a plain question, to utter a mere Yes' o r ' N o ' ? Miss Vane will not eat you!" " l e a n answer your question," Frank broke in, from his place of vantage at the window; "the enrriage is at the door now, Miss Vane." Though the announcement renewed her old nervous terror, Magdalen heard it gladly. Mrs. Talbot might bo unsvmpathetic, and even unkind; but nothing could ,be worse than th s long helpless wait In the company of two rndo 1 ljildreu and an nncomfortehly attentive young man. "She rose with nervous.haste. HWI stood waiting in her shy, schoolgirl fashion, until the dooi|opened :vnd'-iVir<*. Talbot, followed by her eldest daughter, •wept majestically into the room. •• So—Miss Vane has come, I urtderstand!" Mrs. Talbot began,-raiding her gold-rimmed glasses to a uose aristocratically arched, and letting the aye* that hardly seemed to need their aid travel leisurely over every object within their ran go of vision before they finally settled otf Magdalen's face. "AH, you are here, 1 see 1 Pray be seated, Miss Vane." She wared her hand towards the chair from which the girl had just, risen, a n d took her o # n placj upon the eeirtre couch, ihaking down her abtmdrat flounces, and lug ^raciouHtioss— " We were quite sorry not to meet your train. a» we had fully intended doing " "But you had an accident on the road, I suppose," Frank Talbot broke In sarcastically ; and his mother turned her eyes ou him with a look of great displeasure. " ' " We had no accident," she answered coldly. " B u t we called at the Towers' and stayed later than we thortght." " 1 see. Insestyre cume down lost night, did he not. Flo t" The tall, haughty-looking girl, who had stood silent and motionless until now, raised her dark eye* at the direct question, and said ind;n>rentty— '" Why ask me, since you kuow already} Yes, Lord Ingestyre w m there!" Frank whistled in uu aggravating way, and Mrs. Talbot went quickly on, more because she wished to stop the skirmishing between her sou and daughter than from any desire to set Magdalen Vaue at hei ease— " And I suppose you took a fly from the station ? You could hardly have- wulked that distance, knowing nothing of the way." " I did not walk, and I did--not take a fly; a lady who traveled down from London with me drove me here." Flora Talbot, who had been regarding the new-comer with anything but approval of her youth end fairness, raised her Blight dark brows disdainfully. "Yon make friends very easily, Miss Vane," Mrs. Talbot said In a sterner tone. "You will learn by-and-by that that ii not English habit. However I suppose this lady meant no harm " "Harm," Magdalen flashed, all her shyness forgotten, all \her impetuouB nature In arms to resent thisVraiost unjust attack — •harm l She saw lSJwas alone and friendless, not knowing wSat to do! Was It harm to befriend me thenr«k Mrs. Talbot raised her glastfS^ngaln, and surveyed the charming flushed face with eyes that were to the full aa unfriendly as her daughter's. " I said it was no harm," she repeated with heavy emphasis. " I would counsel you to curb that hasty temper, and receive advice that should be instruction wityi submission if not with gratitude. Did you not even ask this benevolent lady's name ?" "She gave it unasked," Magdalen replied in a dull stifled voice. She was so utterly weary, s o broken In mind and body, that she seemed robbed of all resistant force ,\ even the angry energy of a t_baclL_died out in the one quick flame. " She said that you knew her well, and her name was—--" " Well I" Mrs. Talbot repeated, with not unnatural irritability as the girl paused, hesitating over the utterance of what seemed to her now more than ever an absurdly unreal name. "Miss Muffet—Little Miss Muffet—she told me to say." Mrs. Talbot's face grew suddenly crimson, and she half rose from her sent, while Frank broke into a roar of irreverent laughter, Which seemed only to add fuel to the flame of his mother's wrath. "Bravo, Miss Vane 1" he cried, choking, still but making a struggle for speech. "I never saw the tables more neatly turned, or an angry old lady more completely cornered !" "If this is a joke," Mrs. Talbot said,her voice quivering with indignation, her triple chin and heavy pendulous jowl seaming to shake in company—"if you intend Hny jest at my expense, Miss Vane " " What nonsense, mother :" Flora broke In coldly. "How could she possibly see any poiut in, much less plan, such a jest ? The joke, such as it is, is of course all Miss Meredith's." *«Of course It la," Frank agreed, with alacrity. "She s i w a way of giving yon a dig through an innocent straiger, aril she took it. of course. I cannot say I blame the poor oiil girl, though I nave not the honor to IKJ her favor te : I always rather felt for myself. Bat"—with a fresh peal of langht.er—"did yon not thinks the queer l i t t e body was weil maiche.l with a name, Miss \ u n w " "Is it not her name :-" Magdalen asked piteou-ly, wondering why this j-eMniiurly sympathetic stranger should have deliberately set stumbling blocks in her hard prtth, and niiide her painful entrance into tins' ungeutal home more painful r.ui dif- Jicnlt still. " I thought of cour-e she spoke the truth. Do. y<.m not know her then :-" "We know her—yes—but not under that name.'' -Flora T.ilb >t -answered the general appeal with ivy < iviiity. and slow di>tiiHt)iess.

" V. e all bow down and workup, but we none of us get on very well with her. so you may consider yourself lucky indeed to be taken at mud under her wing.*' Magdalen did not answer, and Flora turned to \vr mother. " Probably .M ss \ ane is tired after her journey," she said sugges iwly.

" It is vt'ry nice, I think I" Magdalen an" swereil with weary sincerity. It was a mere cjurret, poorly and scantily furnished ; but the girl, whose whole life had been spent at a cheap fureitrn school, was not likely to look ror luxurious surroundings, and any place that promised rest and solitude would have seemed an ante-chamber of Paradise just then. But solitude at least was not. to be h e n at once. Kitty seemed In no hurry to leave her, but, perching on the ledge of. the open window, wutche-1 her every movement with unabashed bright eyes, "I wonder how you will get on with us." she observed at last, dangling a slim black-stockinged lea from her high perch. " W e are rather unlucky, with our governesses, you must know—or have been as yet—perhaps because they never take the trouble to understand us properly." Tlie absurdly reflective air and assured criticisms of this mere child made Magdalen smilo in spite of herself. Kitty s a w the smile, and answered it at once. "Yon think J am talking nonsense, but yon will see. They all do the same things at first. Make much of me because I a m clever, and snub Blanche because she la a goose; then they let mother bully t d e m - and—which makes ber most angry of al], they make love to Frank.

A Secret Organization Which Prpposen t o Maintain Them—N'ntloiml Minute-Men Jteady on Call to Figlit Strike* and Boycotts—The American Law uud Order League. ST. Louis* July 2.—Several very importa n t meetings of the lenders of thy Law and Order League have been held recently both hero and a t Sedalia, Mo. A prominent officer of the league SUVH t h a t these meetings havo been much mora general iu character than those previously held, the Intention being t o establish a n organization from one end of tho country to the other in sujxport of law and order, which can be largely massed if necessary a t one point. For instance, iu case of trouble in St. Louis with which the loairuohere could n o t copo, the preparationsnow being made are for the purpose of enabling the local officials t o call on Chicago or any other place for reinforcements, the members being bound t o answer such a call a t a moment'* notice. The organization, in this respect, ispartaking more of the character of national minute- men, though the members say they hope they will never b"u called on t o perform t h a t kind of duty. As a means of getting the forces out on a few moments' notice, the addresses of all ''members, business and "residence, are-taken. Tho league, which had its origin* in Sedalia, has been rapidly fathered by some of theleading secret society men in the country, Legion of Honor members and Masons being prominent, a n d the workings and management of these societies have been consolidated and the best points called out. In order to secure a large nnd effective membership as sjon ns possible, and a t tho mime timekeep it secret, they have been very successful in the latter regard, and it is only with the greatest labor t h a t any thing reliable as t o its workings can Ire ascertained. Beginning in Sedalia and spreading t o De Soto and Hannibal, Mo., it was soon taken up by St. Louwi, when it really began to boom and spread rapidly to Curondelet,' Clnrksville, Crystal City, Mo.; Belleville, III.; Chicago, Jackson,. Mich.; Evansville, ind.; St. Paul. Minneapolis, Rochesfer, N. Y.; Milwaukee and Baltimore, in a b o u t the order named, uud i»- now gaining a strong foothold in Iowa and Kansas ai>d other States. With thep o i n t s named it has reached a membershipof over 17,000, over N,000 of which are in _St. Louis, Included in the membership, it is said, are a large number of laboring men. engineers, conductors and Knightsof Labor, who express a firm allegiance t o the League in preference t o a n y order. Rev. Edmonston, of Sedalia, h a s been employed t o work the league up all over the country, and has organized a great many branches, and h a s committees working in all "• directions. Tho principal object'" is t o ' prevent labor disturbances and discountenance strikes and boycotts. The latter comes in. for" particular condemnation, a committee of tho league being appointed to investigate all boycotts, and where the employer is found to have been unjust, to let thejn alone, but where the employer haegiven n o cause for such extreme measures, then t o go to his assistance. • • ^ — TWO BANKS WRETCKED. -AU'ltnumd.

" When a young woman stands beside the tiro-place, taps iier foot on the rug, and says, coolly: "I feel very much honored, I'm sure, hut I don't think we .are suited to each other,1' the young man who is most interested in the conversation can do nothing better than to depart as soon as consistent with his •dignity. . / So Richard went out and banged/the door, leaving Dolly in the library. Dolly was eighteen, Richard was' twenty- three, the ages at .which a i n a n and a woman are most given to tormenting each other. Dolly thought Richard the handsomest and widest of human beings; Richard thought Dolly the lowliest and most lovable of women; so there is no use describing either of them. That Dolly/should refuse Richard, or that Richard should propose to Dolly in an unfavorable moment, may seem s t r a n g e / n u t it was the fault of a gossip, a silent gossip, who or which had circulated most extraordinary intelligence/ concerning Richard. One line afternoon, less than a weak before/this painful evening interview, Richard waiked down Main street, enjoying the mild spring air, thinking of Djnly and tennis, Dolly and his canoe, 'Jolly and his tandem and Dolly and his buggy, as had been his habit ever since he returned from college and found that Dolly had treasured up all his letters to her brother. Main street was crowded; the evening train, the "supper train,", from town, had just arrived, and Richard, who had come down on an earlier train on some business with old Mr. Frankland, met the crowd, and beamed serenely on every one. People meet very closely on the narrow sidewalk of a village street; that was the reason why the two Poulett girls, apparently struck by Richard's new scarf-pin, stared and giggled as they passed. Then Miss Lawndes, the dressmaker, peered at him with eager eyes: Mrs. Allan, the doctor's wife, stout and slow, came to a full stop in front of him, and as he.stepped' aside to give her room, she turned and looked at him again before she passed on. Richard's special friends, "the boys," as the young lawyers, clerks • and railroad men of his own age were called, were nearly all on the other side of the street/ but Bobby Price, just through college, and on'his way home from the tennis-ground, sauntered slowly to meet Rkdiard. Lulie 'Cameron was with him, giggling as usual, and they both stopped and talked to Richard for a minute or two. Then it was tea-time, and every one in well-regulated Sunnydale went home. Within the. next, three days all Sunnydale was talking about Richard Dale and Julie Frankland, of the outrageous flirtation between them, for Julie was engaged to George Lane, who was in Europe on a long business trip. The first that Dolly Frith heard of it was from her Aunt Julia Dorr. " W e all know how Julie flirted before she1 got engaged," said Aunt Julia, after announcing the facts in the case. "But I never would have believed that she could nave misbehaved so afterwards. Georgo^*dJlbc furious. Of course lie will break o?K and I can't blame him." Dolly kept silent. Richard had been • devoted to her since they were children; they had quarreled and m a d e up a dozen times, and he had occasionally invited other girls to parties and picnics, when he thought Dolly had shown signs of undervaluing him, but never in their lives had there been any thing like this. And to think how he hart kept on calling on her three times a week, while he wax, no doubt, calling upon J u l i e , t h e other four evenings! .And then .to come dowu in the early train to see her! "The detestable little flirt, it was all her fault!" thought Dolly, bending over her work, and blushing with shame and anger. But though Dolly inwardly raged, she .Showed no signs of disturbance* and 'serenely met Richard when he called, as usual, two days after she had learned of his falseness. "If it were not that the whole village had seen it,"T believe that I should be deceived by him again," thought Dolly, aa she looked into the eyes that were dearer to her than all others, as they beamed at her from under Richard's straight brows. When Richard, who had lately made certain satisfactory business arrangements, and felt that his life-long devotion deserved to be rewarded, made what he considered a neat and creditable proposal, his wrath at her refusal was not greater than Dolly's at his presumption. " I didn't need to lead up to it, as if I had only known her a month! She's been fooling me all this time!" was Richard's angry comment, as he went down the steps. "He thinks because she's engaged and flirts, he can be engaged and flirt too!" was Dolly's meditation, mingled with tears. '*But I would take him! Oh,'I wduld be ji'ist such a fool! and forgive him — if the whole village hadn't seen it!" and Dolly wept above the new mantle-cover, regardless of decorative art. Dolly was not one to tell when she had refused an*offer, so she had no one to sympathize with her. The friendship between her brother F r e d and Richard had been long and unshaken, and possibly Dolly might have begged Fred to call him back and try to clear him of the charges against him; but Fred was in Texas, not to h>Jionie for weeks, so Dolly had her trouble all to herself and tried to be amiable. Not so with Richard. That young man appeared on the next morning's train with a face so forbidding that none of "the boys" ventured to sit with him. A short "'morning," was all the greeting he returned to any one, and he was left to his paper and his thoughts. Meaning glances and masculine chuckles went on about him. All.imagined he had learned what an amazing amount of work had been accomplished by the silent gossip, and , they rather unwisely concluded to drop the subject, for it would have shortened various troubles if Richard and Julie had known about the talk. But Richard had not even heard his n a m e connected with Julie's, and was simply in a furious temper over his unexpected rejection by the only girl he had ever loved. At least two persons in Sunnydale experienced nothing but clouds and rain for the next three weeks, no matter what the weather report said. Then came two letters. One from George Lane, in Vienna, bitterly reproaching Julie Frankland for herconduct toward Richard Dale, and offered to release her from her engagement if she wished. The other, from Frederick Frith to Richard Dale, reproaching him for his rlirting with an engaged girl, and regretted that he should lutvo lost the high sense of honor which had so ennobled his boyhood. The young people of Sunnydale have tempers. They do not pine in secret, or let a fog of misunderstanding nourish poisonous vapors. It is well known Chat thunderstorms clear the air; thus Richard and Julie presently developed a social thunderstorm which cleared the atmosphere of Sunnydale. Julie, with her black eyes flashing and cheeks ablaze, wrote the following emphatic telegram to George Lane, in Vienna: "It is all crazy nonsense. I will investigate and explain." And Grandpa Frankland speeded it on its way, wondering much at the ways of young people. Richard, I grieve to state,.swore over his friend's instructive and admonitory letter, andi then sent this telegram to Frederick Frith, in Sherman: "Obliged for advice. A pack of lies. Will write to-morrow." That afternoon Richard Dale and Julie Frankland were seen together in Richard's buggy. Just as Miss Lawndes was saying: "Of course, it's all settled n o w , " the buggy .stopped before her door, and Richard helped Julie to alight. "Miss L a w n d e s , " said Richard, as that lady hurried to the door, "Miss Frankland and 1 are determined to learn how our names came to be connected in a manner whiifc has caused us the greatest annoyance. We have made two calls, and in each we have been referred to yon." Miss Lawndes looked angry and embarrassed. " I prefer to refer you to some one else; all the village saw it," she said, stiffly. "To whom do you refer us?" asked Richard, looking very stern. "Mi's,-'Allan saw it just after I did, and the Poulett girls just before; you must excuse me, 1 and Miss Lawndes retreated into the house, for* never, since she had '"titled o n " Richard's youthful shirt-wrists, had she seen him look so angry. * " W h a t in the mischief doe* she nieauv" exclaimed Richard. "Let us go to Mrs. A l l a n / ' said Julie. They found Mrs. Allan working at her llowcr-beds. When she realized fhe presence of these two in her path she raised herself ponderously, and looked at them over her spectacles. "Mrs. Allan," said Richard, "will you please tell us what you have ever Keen to make you think there was any flirtation between Miss Frankland and mvself?" • Mrs. Allan looked around for some support, but linding nothing nearer, retreated to the doorstep and sardown. while the two young people stood in front of her. "You w a n t to know, Richard, do you? Well, I thought you'd have heard it a dozen times in the last three weeks. So there isn't any thing in it, is there?" «hc said, in her exasperatingly slow way. "Miss Frankland is engaged to a gentleman for whom I have the highest regard, and we have never imagined that our names could be connected till this morning, when we received letters from friends at a distance, informing us that we were the victims of some unpardonable gossip whose name we are now determined to find out,M said Richard. "Well, Richard," said Mrs. Allan, clasping her fat hanfls around her garden trowel, "you walked down Main street on the 28th of April with a long red fringe oft'Julie's collar hanging to the top button of your coat, and all the village saw it." "Did I ? " said Richard, impationtlv, "and what more?", " W h a t more! Seems to me most people would think if a man's coat was that near to a girl's collar—no, I d o n ' t mean to say you had kissed her, but you could have counted her eyelashes, Richard," and Mrs Allan looked a t the two amazed young people with a deprecating air. "On the 2Hth I never left my room; I had one of my bad sore throat, Dr. Allan k n o w s , " exclaimed Julie. " I was at your house, but I only saw your grandfather about some deeds," said Richard. "And my collarette, my red chenille collar that George sent me from Paris!—you could not have been even near it." V-» "Every body knows that collar, Julie, there's not such another in Sunnydale— a long red fringe, with a little gold tassel at the e n d , " said Mrs. Allan. "Mr;*. Allan, I ask you to take my word for it, that Miss Frankland and I have never flirted, that I did not see her on that day, and that I am utterly ignorant as to how a piece of her fringe became attached to my coat button," said Richard, and then the two puzzled, angry young people drove away, this time to Mr. Frankland's. Bessie Frankland was hanging on the gate, "Bessie," said Julia, "tell me, did you ever take my red collarette out of my room? I won't scold, not one word, but Mr. Dale and I must k n o w . " Bessie considered a moment. " I t was ages agp, the day we got the last arbutus. I only had it on for a minu t e . " "Where did you put it, t h e n ? " "Back in your drawer—oh, first I hung it on the hat island; I guess it was there till after supper, but I d i d n ' t hurt it a scrap, and I put it back in ••your drawer when I took up your supper. You were sick that d a y . " "There! You caught the fringe on your coat when you got your hat and cane!" exclaimed Julia, with a beaming face. "Bessie, get your hat and come with u s . " "Well, I'll s w e a r - " "No, d o n ' t swear, M c Daler: you've no need. It has been the hardest on m e , " said Julie. " T h a t ' s all you know about it," growled Richard, as lie helped Bessie into the buggy, and thereupon Julie's quick wit, revealed to her various things. They drove first to Mrs. Allan's, where Bessie related her performance with the collarette, ana then Julie, looking down the street, said: " There's Dolly Frith tying up her honeysuckles. Let's go there. I can't bear to Think she should have believed me a flirt, the darling girl!" " I w o n ' t , " said Richard. " Y e s you will. Bessie, just the reins; Mr. Dale likes to have girls drive," said Julie. Bessie the reins, and Richard, leaning in his'seat with an air of indifference, was driven into the pretty garden where Dolly, standing upon a ladder, was tying up honey-suckles. Richard only raised his hat slightly when Dolly turned anu viewed this very unexpected trio, but Julie exclaimed: " Dolly, dear. I've telegraphed George "that all Sunnydale has gone quite mad, except we three. Bessie h u n g my red collar on the hatstand, Mr. Dale caught his coat in it that day he came to see grandpa, when I was up-stairs, sick, and every body in town saw him with a piece of my fringe hanging to his coat, and, behold! allrthe world accused us of flirting. We never knew a word of it till this morning, and npw we are taking Bess around, who is proud to confess her performance." Dolly's face glowed and dimpled as she looked at Julie. "Bessie has a good deal to answer for," she said, trying to appear joking, but the deepening blush told Richard exactly what she meant, and the change in his looks, voice and manner showed so much to Julie that after a few more words she exclaimed to her sister: "Bess, you are crushing me, you rolypoly ball! Let's get out, and "go to see Miss Lawndes. , Fni ready to face all the world, with my collarette on, too." Richard offered to'drive' her where she wished to go, but she insisted on being helped out, and presently was hurrying down the path with Bessie, leaving Richard standing within a foot of Dolly's ladder. Bessie enjoyed her prominence in the affair of the collarette, so the ex* £lanation spread fast, and Lily 'aJe, Richard's little sister, took pri in showing her doll, adornod wj^hWne missing bit of fringe, which^sno said sho had pulled off of bKffner Dick's coat one evening So< the atmjfrjjhere of Sunnydale take little took buck cleared delightfully, and almost any man may now wear fringe on his coat button* George Lane is coming home soon, Julie is keeping Miss Lawndes very busy, and Richard, in his meditations upon Dolly, now combines her with a nebulous arrangement of white lace and orange blossoms, to be worn be*, fore long for his benciit.—£'. Mutter,1- in, Pittsburgh Bulletin. M O R A L SUICIDE. A Crime Committed by All Persons Addicted to the Opium Habit. Whoever first administered opium to an agonized sufferer bestowed a blessing upon the human race that there is no computing. But whoever first taught that the dose might be repeated till its pleasant sensations created a desire that became a need, habitual and not to be resisted, should be visited with the severest punishment that late reserves for sinners. The opium habit is one t h a t has so firm a hold n o w upon many that it becomes the public duty to expostulate, and to rehearse the suffering it creates and the degradation it entails, as a measure of warning to those in any danger from it. The physical effects of eating or of smoking opium, after a short time, are so fearful that no one who is acquainted with them, or who realizes them, would ever willingly become their victim. Never to be able to digest any thing, to endure constant nausea, to have heavy pains, distress and a perpetual burning sensation in the stomach, to flutter and tremble and faint, to feel as if you were a bubble rising m the air, to suffer all sorts "of terrifying hallucinations, to lose much control of the limbs, to laugh and cry at wrong times like a simpleton, and never to be sure how much you have made a fool of yourself, to have blur and blazing before the eyes, blinding headaches together with torturing pains in the bones, to have neuralgia so acutely that the sensation of touching a bare nerve in a tooth is constant, to iind yourself in a condition generally resembling delirium tremens—all that is bad enough. But to know also that It destroys the moral life in even greater measure, so that women of pride and wealth, and hitherto of virtue, will practice every meanness, craft and deception, commit theft, forfeit modesty, all under its influence, and pause at no crime in order to obtain possession of the drug, if they can not get it otherwise—to know all that, and yet to touch it, except by prescription, would seem to be impossible. In short, there is no question that opium debauches the whole moral nature, ruins the physical and destroys the nervous system, and is the worst enemy that man has everencountered; for alcohol has its intermissions, however brief, but opium never ceases for one moment in its tyranny and cruelty. How terrible it is even the Emperor of China declared when, it being within his option to seize a large number of chests of opium belonging to the British, and worth many million dollars, turning the price all into his own purse, he. with a ^sublimity of action unequaled in any other historical aetion that we know, ordered it to be utterly destroyed rather than sell it to his people and enrich himself by cursing them. There are many individuals, however, who will not be deterred in season from the use of this cruel drug by an j" possibilities in relation either to their physical or moral being; but it would seem as if human pride, to say nothing else, might cause them to pause when they know that the end of it all is idiocy, for most of us would prefer to die to-day under any circumstances rather than, come to that at last; and that., moreover, feminine pride in especial would shrink froni transformation into the hideous-looking object that the opium-eater eventually becomes. That this generation drinks less intoxicating liquor proportionately than those, that have gone before is possibly true, but that in one form or another it uses vastly more opium is equally true. Not merely the tine lady is its slave, but the operative also. If the innumerable number of chemists' shops does not in itself tell the story, it is said that one would soon discover it in taking up a position in their neighborhood on any Saturday night, when the customers can be seen coming in- for their little vials of poison in whatever form thevuse it. The sight might make one tremble for the generations to come, if it were not that after a mother and daughter addicted to the cruel habit, or a father and son, there will be no generation to come in that family. But if hardship and w a n t mignt be pleaded in any faintest breath as some measure of excuse for the over-worked and often ill-used operative who resorts to the d r u g that shall open to her an escape, if only for the present, into a land of dreams, there is no excuse for Thir woman of property or of education who puts herself into the power of this terrible fascination. If she is in trouble, she has Jbther tfesourees, she is not obliged to drink lethe or nepenthe i order to forget herself. Long ha>it of years, culture, friends, opportunities, ought to be sufficient to-^vnbrd relief from mental sorrowjifother ways; and if she takes it from idleness, or from mere lovej>P£ue effects of tho drug, then words are too weak to reprimand hci^Ha^'er a Bazar, P£KSONAL AND LITERARY. —Salvini, the actor, is worth $600,- XX), over one-third of which he m a d e in this country.

" You should not talk so much, Kitty," she said, with a troubled sigh. " I a m sure your mother would not wish you to discuss family nfluir* so freely, or repeat servants' gossip." ^ ^ - - " I t is not servants' gossip, I^hVTen to w h a t mil uml Flo say." thej^kitH retorted, with a pert loss of her-durk head. •' And It was Flo wha+nsisted t h a t the governess shun ld_^be-"ugly—though I believe she is more: afraid of Lord Ingestyre than of Ij'rank." Magdalen saw t h a t . If not absolutely impossible, it would at least be ditticult to convince the shrewd little observer of the impropriety or her remarks, and wisely deemed to change the subject. * " Why do you call me your governess, Kitty ?" she asked, with an a t t e m p t at a lighter tone. "Airs. Talbot asked me here on a visit." • x " Y e s ; and she will m a k e it a short one if she can," Kitty laughed. " B u t . long or short, you will be our governess while it lasts, and J hope you mean to be goodnatured and let us have a real jolty time while you are here. We do not get much fun, Blancliie and I—for ma is a ' T a r t a r / and pa is a goose, and Flora wants us always kept in the schoolroom; but you look good-natured. I think I could get on with you. And with thi» expression of opinion Kitty quitted t h e room. And Magdalen, left alone at last, knelt by her litile white-curtained bed, and. With her head bowed on her outstretched arms, sobbed her very heart o a t in an accessol weariness and lonely pain. Was life to be all like this, she t h o i g h t with a s h n d d e r - ' u t i w a r m e d by one ray of love, ualighted by one silver star of hope ? The Leaders of PINCKNEY, Low Prices, MICHIGAN'.

" I am glad to see you, my dear f you tire very like your father, i hope yon will be happy here. Very like yoi.r father, indeed. \ ou do not remember him, my dear *" Mr- Talbot dropped the hand that he had been limply shaking, mid turned with the last nervous imeaiiuu to his •rite. " 1 do n o t : " she answered curtly. "A nd perhaps, Arthur, you will allow Miss Vane to take her place at i he table. You had enough to say about the likeness between her and her father last night." " B u t it is even more remarkable in the daylight," the banker persisted, with the feeble defiance of the utterly hen-pecked. " You looked a little worn and pule last night, buc.yoh are as fresh a« a rose this morning. 1 howe you s.ept v.r II." " A n d did not dream of Mis- Mullet ?" put in Frank, who, failing to secure a seat beside the prMty stranger. Inn] been vainly endeavoring to attract her attcntiod across the table, and now thought ho had attained his end. " Fh, what is tli.it :J Fouie friend of yours, my dear ?" the hanker aske I curiously ; being a little cl«j;if. he (-.'Might, the words only in an imperfect bi-bion, b u t he saw tlie quiek, half-i righteiied, iialfappenling look in Magdalen's blue eyes, and scented, as h* thought, a mystery. '"No," Mrs. Talbot broke in m a lone that warned the wcll-1 rained husband to ask no furl her quest i;>us. "Miss Vane traveled down fmni town with Constance Meredith, and was driven here in the Hall carriage." MY Talbot nodded two or three times, and stroked his white m siaciie with a long, shaking hand. He w a s a tall, sh-uder man, with a handsome, weak-looking face, and a manner in which t.middy mid goodn a t u r e seemed ever struggling for the mastery. Magdalen felt in ihe h>st moment c-f meeting with hi r lather's i ousih. that ho at least would be her i rieml if lie. dared ; but she felt also that his daring ui.isll carry him but a little way m any conll.et with his wife's imperious will. So it was rather the remo al of a friendly t h a n a protecting presence that she regretted, when at last Mr. Talbot ros,- to go; and he himself took his departure with evident relief. " I wonder why women bate each oilier In such an unreasoning fashion *" he thought, as he shook tiie shadow of domestic despotism from his shoulders and drove down to the bank, where he was recognized as lord and master, witli less than his usual le surely content. .."There does not seem a n y t h i n g in t h a t poor little girl to excite antagonism, and yet they were all against her from the tirst. 1 can Bee that Margaret only tolerates her as a useful drudge, and Flora certainly will not take her p a r t . " In the meantime, while,; the muster of Melina House t h u s moodily d i s c u s s e d Magdalen's prospects there, its mistress formally, and with no »upert!nous regard lor her feelings, informed her w h a t her duties and position in that well disciplined establishment would lie. " Y o n would rather, I am sure, earn yonr bread t h a n receive it as almsr** she said agreeably—"at least, any welUprincipled young person in your place would prefer it." " A s I should," Magdalen answered promptly; and, with a sort of gentle pride —"I think I understood last night t h a t I was to remain here as the children's governess." . Mrs Talbot smoothed down the frills of her immaculate morning dresw, a n d •lightly shook her glossy d a r k head. ! "Subject to certain conditions, t h a t i i w h a t I intended to propose. B u t in the first place we have still the conditions to discuss and in the s e c o n d / •• •" " You are disjvppointed.in me : you have changejLy-oiir mind !" Magdalen broke in, as-tbe other paused abd seemed to hesitate for a word. And, struggle with the weakness as site would, the girl could not quite keep the tears out of her eyes. Ungenial as was this home, it had long been the goal of heV hopes; unkind as were its inmates, they were the only people in t h e world upon whom she had even the most shadowy claim of kinship. " 1 did lint quite mean t h a t , ? Mrs. Talbot said, with chilly graciousness. " I am not able to judge of your acquirements yet; and, on the other hand—in short, there are reasons " Flora, who had been sitting in the window apparently absorbed in the columns of the Morning Post, looked up J rum her paper now, and said, in the clear, disdainful tone she seemed to use habitually to her mother— " Why can you not say exactly what you mean ? it is far easier, and in the end kinder to all parties." " D o not interrupt so rudely, Flo." the mother retorted, with a peevish shoulders h r u g ; ' or, if you think yon can do it so much better, explain the m a t t e r yourself. I have already told Miss Vane t h a t the arrangement can only be a tentative one." " Precisely ; but you have, led her to imagine that, it she succeeds in keeping those unruly children in order, and making something more of them than the i g - norant dunces they are, she will, have fulfilled all your requirements, and may look on this place as her h o m e ! Now, this is not exactly the case. If Miss Vane is to reyiain ht*re we.shall ask something moro of her than a little music, French, a n d German !" " A s . for i n s t a n c e ? " Magdalen asked, with outward calmness, but a fiercelybeating heart. \Mrs. Taibnt's cold severity was hard to bear but she rebelled With much more passion against the iusolent dictation of this mere girl. • " As, for instance, a little discretion and tact!'' Flora Talbot an-weied placidly. " You may think the warning u n n e c e s - sary, Miss Vane; but we have had acrttel •experience of governesses, and yon surfer for the sins of your predecessors. There m u s t be no presuming on quasi-consinship— no d i n i n g with my brother, no thrusting yourself upon the notice of any visitors to the house." Magdalen's eyes gleamed with a dangerous light, and her fair face changed from rose-red to lily white, with a rapidity t h a t alarmed Mrs. Talbot, who hastened to cut short her d a u g h t e r s insolent harangue. " Come, come. Flora, t h a t is quite enough," she said sharply. " W h e n we see any signs of levity or forwardness i n Miss Vane it will l>e time to reprove her. No, no, do not answer now "—as Magdalen was about to break passionately in— " I have no dniibt yon are wounded.and hurt, and it will be wiser not to say all that you feel. "W e will talk the m a t t e r over later, but go back to the children now !" Magdalen hesitated for a second, feeling that, if she did not speak o u t ' t h e b u r n i n g indignat'ou that seemed to change her whole nature, her heart must break. Gentle as she was, she was a prond, acutely- sensitive girl, and the cool, deliberate insult, stung her like the cut of a whip. But, after all, she went in an absolute silence that made Mrs. Talbot anything but comfortable. The pale, proud face said, plainly as any words, how fierce w a s her pain--th it of course was a small matter ; but it said as plainly also how lasting her resentment would be. and Mrs. Talbot's conscience suggested several w a r s in which ev*ri-handed justice might commend the chalice, of which she had m a d e poor Magdalen drink freely, to her own lips or those of her favorite child. " Y o u r temper is really intolerable. Flora :" she cried, t u r n i n g angrily upon her daughter the m o m e n t Magdalen had gone. "That girl will never stay in th^s house now !" Flora turned the brortdsheet.of the p a - per and ran her d a r k eyes down the" column, as she answered with a listless yawn— " A s my primary object was to get rtdl of her, I cannot say that I regret achieving that resmt.

" Mrs. Talbot said. w-it-h growing anger. " I like t h * girl more than you do—she is m u c h too pretty to he a safe inmate of such a hoiiM as t h i s ; but I do not let a senseless jealousy blind me as you do. To drive M a g - dalen Vane out of the house without a pretence of trying her as a governess after bringing her here would rpuse even your father to be her champion, and make Constance Meredith her fervent friend!"' Flora laughed. - " You know how t o q u e n c h m y f a t n e r ' t chivalry, I fanry ; and, as for t h a t wretched ill-tempered little scarecrow a t t h e Hall, what does tt m a t t e r whether1 Ihtf makes Magdalen Vane' h e r toady cdtftnanion• or not T* " I t matters much to me. While Constance lives alone there is always the chance that time may soften her to me and mine—that she may forget chut foolish cause of quarrel, of which mischiefm a k e r s have made so much, and perhaps fulfill the old promise." " T o remember yon in her will !" Flora finished mockingly. " I would sell t h a t remembrance fbr a song, mother, if I were you. Little Miss Mutfet showed by her message of yesterday how the old insult rankled still." Mrs. T a l b o t ' f r o w n e d . The hope her d a u g h t e r ridiculed was one to which she clung with a desperate tenacity, and the reminder was anything b u t welcome. " E v e n from your selfish point of view, and I know you will ade it from no other," she said with spiteful emphasis, " M i s s Vane will be a dangerous visitor at the Hall. She is twice as likely to meet Lord Ingestyre there as heje !" It was Flora's t u r n to start and color angrily a t this suggestion. She was e v i - dently discomposed by it, though she raised her dark head proudly, and said, with great show of scorn— " Absafd ! W h y shdnld the thought of such a meeting trouble me ? Magdalen Vane is—well( yes, I suppose she is— r a t h e r a pretty g i r l ; but by no means t h e all-conquering beauty you seem to imagine. Lord Ingestyre is dot absolutely bound to fall a victim to her charms, and, even if he does so"—with a shrug of exaggerated indifference—" well, we can only say—so much the Worse for him. The catastrophe Will affect the Towers more than Melina House. Lord Ingestyre is nothing to m e . " " U n f o r t u n a t e l y he is riot anything at present." was the swift, shrewd a n s w e r ; "if he were, I should feel very much more a t my ease. If he^Were in any way bound. he could not as a gentleman and a man of honor draw b a c k ; but a niere admirer, however ardent, is so fatally free to change his m i n d . " •" And Is not more free to change it t h a n he Is v -leome !" Flora cried, with angry pride that deceived neither her mother n o r herself. Both knew how entirely the ambitious girl's heart WHS set on the conquest of the young peer, and both felt t h a t iheir ambition had no very stable supi ort. Lord Ingestyre, though he had daneed and ridden and chatted with Flora T a l - bot during a season in town and a country house visit, had certainly in no way committed himself as a lover,'though, witli perhaps more than judicious encouragement, he had permitted himself to pay her a noticeable a m o u n t of attention, and had made his admiration for her brilliant brunette beauty manifest enough. " In spite of himself:" Flora admitted to herself with cynical f r a n k n - s , " I know very well that, though he., ad in ires, he by no means approves of me, and ho has a high Ideal for his wi:'e. He even tries to avoid me by Jits and s t a r t s and for every tcU-d-tctc that he contr ves I plan half a dozen, at least. Hut, what o! t h a t ? When I do catch him he is- doeilo and attentive enough, and he k:;mv.s t h a t I, at least, urn in earnest. Aft:-r'ail, perhaps it< is just as well that he slmald feel what is expected of him. He is a m a n who likes to do his duty in any circumstances, and is quite as likely tu be pushed or drawn into an engagement as lo k u p into ltof his own free will." Flora Talbot w a s a clever, as wed as a daring girl, and there w a s a certain amount of wisdom and reason in herargunieiu: but forall that, and though she'did not spare the pushing ami drawing by which she hoped to attain her end, Lord Ingestyre bade herad-ieu, a s he had met her, m tbo unsatisfactory character of art admiring friend, and she hud almost begun to fear t h a t the flirtatfori had been but an u n - important interlude in his life, wh.MI her brother's a n n o u n c e m e n t that he had arrived a t the Towers revived her hopes once more. The meeting between the two had been, if not quite all t h a t she could wish it. satisfactory in its Way. Lord Ingestyre was cordial, and frankly pleased to see h e r ; but he ijetei1 hinted t h a t she was t h e magnet t h a t h a d brought him to Craym o u t h , did not even suffer her to infer it in any way, " Yes, it is pleasant t o meet you h e r e , " slipping into his accustomed place by Mlse Talbot's side, while her mother a n d Mrs. Chester, the dignified mistress of t h e Towers, sat sipping their tea at the farther end of the long room. " I should hive made my way to your place to morrow but for this c h a r m i n g accident!" She let the black curled lashev rest on the hot velvet cheek just long enough for him to observe and appreciate the contrasted hues, then lifted her d a r k liquid eyes to his and m u r m u r e d softly— " A n d will not let the charming accident change your purpose, I hope.

NEWS from Ex-President Arthur is to the effect that his health is no better but, that be is really growing worse. THE news from, Europe is rather warlike again. Russia seems ;.to be "spoiling for a fight." If she continues^p^spoil she will get all she wants some day. \ AN Irish editor has felicitously suggested this as the record of the Fortyninth Congress: "Congress did nothing and the President vetoed it." . WHILE fhe'bitter political light about Ireland has been going on, crops have been growing in that island and the promise of a productive yield is very encouraging. THE business failures tor the week closing Saturday, July 10, number for the United States, 159; for Canada, 20; atotul of 179, which is above the average for the past few~weeks. THE President has been .invited by the members of the Grand Army of the Republic of the Pacific coast to visit Sau Francisco at the time of the Annual Grand Encampment. The invitation is engraved ona,gold plate decorated whh the Grand Army Badge and other emblems of the order. Its intrinsic .value is over $500. His Excellency ought to attend. (Juoi* reports from the Northwest of late are not so . encouraging as is desirable. The lack of rain in many places for weeks, and thgn the sudden hot and dry blasts of the early days of this month have contributed largely to the injury of much of the growing crop. A few good rains would be worth millions of money to the people of the Northwestern States. THE N. Y. Commercial Bulletin referring to the governmental annual financial report thinks that while there is great reason for encouragement in the reduction of the public debt in the increase of gold in the Treasury, there is occasion for prudence and some regret at the outgo of gold, and shrinkage in exports. The balance of trade is too much the wrong way. QUITE a number of persons hare been engaged in figuring up the cost of the late strike on the Gould railroads in the Southwest, to say nothing of the strikes inaugurated elsewhere on account of that, and the general conclusion is that the strikers lost about $1,000,000, and the railroad company and people $3,500,000. The only thing the strike determined was that strikes are a terribly expensive way of settling labor troubles. REFERRING to the fisheries controversy between Canada and the United States, and to Secretary Bayard's wish ibra "Commission," to settle it, the Chicago Evening Journal suggests that such a settlement would occupy months, if not years, and in the meantime the Canada pirates would continue the seizure of American fishing crafts. Mr. Bayard would meet the sentiment of the country if he would demand that Canadian piracy should cease first and offer to settle afterward. THE "Grand Old MaV' Mr. Gladstone, has been beaten on the Home Rule question in a contest before the people of England. There will be a good working majority opposed' to his plan. As a consequence, Ireland must wait a little longer, Needed reforms must and will come aft awhile. It is idle now to try to disc the cause of this defeat, but it is not imer proper to suggest that "half better than none and it may friends of Ireland asked too will be wiser in the future >af" is that the fch. They THE effort to obtain a / u r y to listen to the testimony for and/against the Anarchists indicted in Chicago for murder, continues to vex ana annoy all good men, not only in thatcfty but elsewhere. Milwaukee, New/York and St. Louis have had no trouWe in securing juries ^ - t r y such cases/It is a sad commentary on the working/ of the law, that out of more ttfan five hundred men examined on their oaths in the past three weeks, only e^gnt have been accepted as qualified. At lis rate of proceeding the trial will last all the year. TnE moment a religious element gets into politics, that moment excitement, of ten withoutreason, tends to bias the judg meat, so that men only look to the present and not the future. None know this better than demagogues, and they never fail to take advantage of this human weakness. It seems to be certain that many voted in England, Scotland and the North of Ireland, against Mr. Gladstone's Home Rule scheme solely because they believed that somehow the Roman Catholic Church was to be specially benefited. Nothing is further from the thoughts of Mr. Gladstone aud Mr. Parnell, as they are both Protest* ants. BIG ROBBERY! TWENTY THOUSAND 23LLABS STOLEN PROM THE MINNEAPOLIS POSTOIFICE-ME.

The average per acre, as estimated by correspondents, is 13 and 68- hundredths bushels, indicating a probable yield inthe State of 22,239,- 686 bushels. The wheat crop has evidently been badly injnred by the Hessian fly. The presence, of the fly is reported by 97 correspondents in the first or south tier of counties, by 69 correspondents in thefsecond tier, by 44 in the third, and 25 in the fourth tier. The number of correspondents in each county of the southern four tiers rereporting damage by Hessian fly is as follows: Allegan 4,Barry 7 Berrien 9 , B r a n c h 1 2 , C a l h o u n 2-1, Cass..1-0; ] g a t e b a r s if the keeper w a - slow i-i [.\ t- Clinton 5, Eaton !>, Genesee 1.

Reports have been received of the quantity of wheat marketed by farmers during the month of June at 277 elevators and mills Of those 229 are in the southern four tiers of counties, which is 44 per cent of the whole number of elevators and in ills in these counties.

The Rev. Fr. Doherty of the Roman Catholic missions in Livingston county has been promoted. He has been called to take charge of the parish of St. Vinceot in Detroit and the parish school. There are 1300school children over whom he has been placed. While this promotion may be pleasant to Fr. Doherty, it will be very unpleasant to hjs parishioners at Brighton, Oceola and Howell. The Rev, gentleman is work of tramps. As two members of that gentry were seen inspecting the premises the previous eveing, J u i - tic« Teeple issued a warrant and Deputy Kearney apprehended them at* Stockbridge, but if they were th« guilty pair they had so deftly hidden their "boodle" that there was no evioV* ence round on them to convict, and they were accordingly released.

A slender, -white whiskered), brave- «yed man sat near the fare-box in the upper end of an F street car this after- 'A nobh; H e r w s Ugh wtttte'OBTby hat upon his head, and his clothes were of black broadcloth. A high Henry Clay collar grasped his neck, and a pair of black-rimmed spectacles hung by a string on his vest He was chatting to a lady at his side, and his black eyes sparkled, and a most winning smile beamed over his weatherbeaten face as the conversation went on. The car stopped; and I was surprised to see him Jump to his feet and walk rapidly to the poor.. As my eyes followed him they rested upon a little fotf-fafrid 'hunchback on crutches who wit* 4rrtaf to 40* into the car. She lhad jfoe fate o# a child, and the body *qf a maime woman, but that body < contorted and twisted ani dwarfed out •of all human, proportion. I saw this .-slender, gray-waiskaMd man bend over iher and a&k her where she wanted to -go. She told him .and her face lighted oip as he assured iter this car was the jight one. Then addressing her with as mueh courtesy at though she had .been the president's bride, he asked .her if he might not help her into the .car. She thanked him, and putting .his hands under her arms he lifted her >up the steps, and placed her crutches ibeside her. He tipped his hat and resumed his seat and conversation. This old gentleman was Gen. Johnston, the great confederate leader. Seventynine years old, he was double the age -=of any-man-m the ca>r- His eyes were the first to see the trouble of the little hunchback, and his muscles were the first to come to her assistance Washington Cor. Cleveland Leader. BeameM* K41t*rlal«. Once during the career of the young De Nyse, he was made managing editor of The Telegram, and he was informed by Mr. Bennett that the editorials for the paper would be furnished from day today by Mr. Leveih, who occupied a position on The Herald staff. These editorials used to come in written in a number of different Ihands, and marked "must" by Levein. De Nyse became dissatisfied with them £nd imagined that they were hurting the paper very jj&ueh. So one day he ,called on the ^oprietor. Said he, "Mr. Bennett* you have made me managing,,q&tftr of The Telegram, and I am tryttgf my beat to push the paper touubceaa, But this man Levein is hampering me very much." "How so?" questioned Mr. Bennett, looking up wit* some surprise. "Weil, I don't want to interfere with any man who is earning his bread and butter, but, at the same time, Levein sends in a lot of editorials every day that are not written by himself,and I suppose he is getting his friends to do the work fqr him. I shouldn't object to that if the editorials were good, but they are pimply infernally bad. There is one man in particular who turns in about the worst rot I ever saw in a newspaper. I haven't the faintest notion who he is, but the stuff he sends through Levein is laughed at all over the office, and is so trivial that it just about destroys the effect of any work I do in the news department. Here is •some of the manuscript." Mr. Bennett took up a slip of paper and looked at it for a moment. Then he said: "So you don't think this writer ought to be allowed to put his stuff in print?" "No," responded Be Nyse, "frankly, I do not. It is quite evident that this particular man is a d—n fool." "Quite possibly," said Mr. Bennett, very quietly. "I wrote those editorials myself." De, Nyse fell back in his chair with a gasp. His hair fairly stoed on end. He started to make some sort of an explanation, but Bennett cut him short. "None of that," exclaimed the proprietor of The Herald; "none of that. I thought those editorials were pretty good; but, as they do not seem to impress other people in the same light, I shall never write another. Good day." Mr. De Nyse returned to his post considerably saddened, but he never had any further editorials from Mr. Bennett.—Car. Borton Herald. • * «*• Olfee* aal.

A new camp of the Sons of Veterans will be mustered, thirty strong, at Grand Crossing, 111., on Saturday, July 17. An interesting programme has been arranged as an accompaniment to the exercises of installation. Members of post 14o\ of Bloomington (Commander A. C.

B. in the State, It has a membership of over 400 and a nice little fund on interest, besides a large relief fund which it dispenses where it is much deserved in the relief of soldiers' families. It was organized in 1882, and has drawn into its circle about all the ex-soldiers in the city. The post had intended to go up last week, but remained to do honor to the memory of Judge Davis, the illustrious statesmanjurist, by being present" at the obsequies.

The following wilT interest old soldiers, especially cavalrymen: "We had in our regiment," said an old Indiana officer, "an old horse called The Stargazer, which was kept for the use of the officer of the day. The field officers didn't care to have, their horses go into the hands of any captain or lieutenant who might be detailed to act as officer of the day, and so an old scrub had been picked up and kept for use in this department. ., It was my fate to be officer of the day at Lookout Mountain, and I was riding old Stargazer along the road on the ledge*, when the Colonel overtook me, riding his splendid war horse. He challenged me for a race! I gave Stargazer a touch and I went into camp a quarter of a mile ahead of ,the Colonel. This led to the discovery that the horse which had been ridiculed could make better time than any other in the Regiment." "Rousseau's natural dash when he was on horseback often carried him to the danger-line. I remember one occasion when my company was on picket duty on the Granny White Pike, south of Nashville, Rousseau and his staff were outside the lines. About 10 o'clock at night they came dashing up to the picket line, and when the word halt was given by the vedettes the old battle-horse which Rousseau was riding and which he was so proud of took it as a challenge and went forward like the wind. The vedettes fired, as in duty bound, and there was considerable commotion along the line. After a time Rousseau rode back to explain. He closed with this remark, 'I don't care for myself, but you know, boys, you might have hit the horse.'" VETERANS' GATHERING. The third annual reunion of Lee county soldiers, held at Fort Madison, Iowa, July 2d and 3d, was a grand success. Grand Army posts of Keokuk, Burlington, West Point and other neighboring cities participated. The Old Settlers'park was thrown open for the meeting, while Vlele park was used for the veterans' camp.

A Crytaa* fl»ne. John Cooley was out with the Beardsley house coach Friday evening, and while passing through Hinsdale street, about 9:30 o'clock, during the shower, when opposite the residence of Jay Spaulding, there came a heavy burst of thunder and lightning which threw one of the horses fiat upon the ground. The horse was so frightened that he cried like a child. The people in Mr. Spaulding's house thinking that a child was crying, went to the door with a light to see what was the matter. Fortunately help was near by and the horse was assisted to his feet, and amid the heavy shower the driver resumed, his journey. Nothing broke bu£ the girth, and no one was injured. —Cor.

The Friends* have always taken a deep interest in Madagascar. On the island they have 133 native teachers and 104 congregations. They have 386 childrennn schools at the capital, and 14,000 in schools in the country. Thev printed from 400,000 to 500,000 works in the native language. During the last year they have expended 140,000 for mission purposes in Madagascar alone. The Chinch Standard protests against the use of fans during church services ;thinks that their use can not be defended, except in rare instances, and urges that, as they wiil be brought, they should at least be used very quietly. In France all religious instruction has been abolished in the public schools. In the place of religion there have been introduted theatrical representations, at least in the city of Paris, for which both participation and attendance are obligatory. The first colored man to be ordained -to the Catholic priesthood is Ben Augustine Tolton. This young priest said his first mass in St. Peter's basilica Rome, on Easter Sunday. The scripture lesson chosen by him was Psalm cvx.: "What shall I render unto the Lord for all the things that He has rendered to me?" The young man it appears, claims Illinois, as his home, and word has gone out that he will locate in Quincy in a short time, which will be his headquarters. • A WET-DAY MISTAKE. It was a rainy, sloppy day, and the single road which led to the little railroad station of Millville was two inches deep with mud. It was nearly time for the arrival of the train and John Longworth, clad in a rough hunting-coat, with his trousers tucked in his boots, walked up and down the small covered platform. He looked at his watch, and then, pulling a telegram from his pocket, leaned up against the wall .of the Station and read it over aloud for the fiftieth time. "Your sister Louise will reach Melville on the 3:15 train. She will look for you. She has on a gossamer, and wears cherry-colored ribbon at her throat." "Dearkittle Louise!" he murmured, replacing the telegram in his pocket.. " It's eight years since I saw her sweet face. I wonder if she is changed much? But, pshaw,! I'd know her among ten thousand." Presently there was a screeching whistle up the track, and the train, with a great rush and roar, dashed into the station. A great many persons alighted; and it teemed to John Longworth that every woman was young and wore A gossamer His sister Louise had brown eyes, and when a dainty little figure, shrouded from head to foot in the inevitable gossamer and with a bit of cherry ribon peeping out of its folds at her throat, walked toward him and raised tier brown eyes shyly to his face he her in his Wue was jtojjgnify that the genius jrf, little frightened scream which s h e / uttered, kissed dozen times. her-rosy lips a half? "Dear little Louise!" he cried. "How you have grown, and how pretty you are!" "I beg—there must be some mistaker* cried the figure in the waterproof, starting back. "Are you Prof. Billings? I am Miss Leigh, the new teacher, and—" "Good heavens! X beg pardon!" cried Longworth, as he flushed to the rbote of nia1 hair. "I thought you were ed him a telegram, and to hide his con fusion he tore it open. "On account of Dad weather Ixmise will remain *>ver un^S-to-morrow," it read. Elsie I^eigh, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, hurried down the platform, and a tall, sedate, elderly man, wearing a rubber overcoat, who had just turned the corner of the station, raised his sou'wester and said: "I am Prof. Billings. I presume you are the new teacher, Miss Leigh?" "Yes, sir," she answered. ~ - i _ And the . professor raised an umbrella and escorted her to the carriage that was in waiting. As the horses toiled up the muddy road she involuntarily glanced back toward the station, a merry twinkle in her eyes and an amused smile dimpled her mouth; but the building hid her unknown cavalier from view. She amused herself with mentally endeavoring to reproduce his features, and felt a secret pleasure in the task. Her reverie was rudely broken by the hard, dry voice of the professor. "This is MillYille Leigh," he said. In the school-room the next day she was considerably surprised when an usher entered with the message: "A gentleman and lady in the parlor to see Miss Leigh." She followed the usher down the uncarpeted corridor to the parlor. The room was dimly lighted, but she paused on, the threshold, wondering who her visitors could be. A tall, finely formed fellow, in a jaunty summer suit, whom she instantly recognized, rose and stepped toward her. "This is my sister Miss Louise Longworth, Miss Leigh," he said in a frank, cheery voice. "I mistook you for her yesterday on the station platform. I know I was very rude, and I came to-day to apologize." "My sister,' he continued, "has been away at schoo , and I have not seen her for eight years. You look very much as I thought she ought to look, and then, you exactly answered the description." He said much more, and the sister for whom she had been mistaken was very kind. "You are a stranger in Millville," she said at parting, "and I know it must be very lonely in this-stuffy old school. I am home for 'good now, and yo*u must come and see me at Cobblecliff. Elsie did call at Cobblecliff, and the two girls became firm frrends. Prof. Billings's academy was a "model institution of learning"—at least so the circular which he sent out said—but Elsie Leigh found her lot as assistant teacher a very hard one. One Saturday morning, after a particularly hard week's work, she awoke with a violent headache and couhinot eat a mouthful of breakfast. ,The carriage from Cobblecliff came for her at 9 o'clock. John Longworth held the reins. He noticed when he assisted her in how white and wan her face was and how haggard her eyes. "Are you ill, Miss Leigh?" he said, kindly, as they rattled briskly along the road. "I fear" she said. And then, unable to control herself We know little about the courtships of the presidents. George Washington was a colonel when he first met Mrs. Custis. He was on his way to Williamsburg to Bee the governor, when he was met by a Mr. Chamberlayne, who owned a plantntion along the way, and was asked to stop and dine with him, ..

John Longworth . dropped the reins and attempted to console her. She cried the harder. In his desperation he placed his arm around her slender waist and drew her head down upon his shoulder. "Poor girl!" he whispered, tenderly, and bending over he kissed her. "How dare you?" she sobbed. And her tears, this time of vexation and anger, flowed afresh. "I dare, "because I love you!" he said, boldly, and kissed her again. "Because I want you for my wife, Elsie. Tell me that you care for me, that you Will •be mine!" / "Oh, John!" she faltered, and nestled again in his arms. / Where «fce Drew the 14*e. "Excuse me, madam," said a man as the car started up and he fell into the woman's lap. "Certainly, sir," she said.

"Excuse m y madam," said he, as the tobacco juice dropped upon her dress in his endeavor to spit into the street / — '"Certainiy sir," said she, '• but mister, this is exactly where I draw the line, and you or I must take another seat of another car." The man made the change, and if he had not done so a number of gentlemen stood ready tovisiting him who was rich and fair to look upon. He finally, accepted, saying that it could be only for dinner, and that, the meal over, he must hasten on to Williamsburg by moonlight. He then threw the reins of his horse to Bishop, his body-servant, and told him to wait for his return. Dinner being over, the Virginia colonel was so well pleased with his company that he was in no hurry to go. He forgot all about poor Bishop and his horse, and accepted an invitation to remain -over-night.It was, it may be -said\,a case of love at first sight. ^ Washington went on to Williamsburg the next day, and on his return he called at the house of Mrs. Custis and asked her hand in marriage. She accepted, and they were married in great style, at her home on the Pamunkey river, on the 6th of January, 1750. A honeymoon of several months was spent here, and then the couple took a wedding tour to Mount Vernon. Mrs. Custis was twenty-six years old at the time, and Washington was three months her senior. Her maiden name academy, Mlss^ was Martha Dandridge. She had been married at seventeen to Colonel Daniel P. Custis, the son of John Custis of Arlington, who was one of the grandees of early Virginia. John Custis had objected to this marriage, and had told Daniel thatlie wouid~cut him off with a shilling if he persisted in carrying it out. He had arranged, he said, a marriage for him with the daughter of Colonel Byrd, of Westover, and the contract had been made when the two children were babies in their cradles. Colonel Byrd was one of the wealthiest and most influential men in the state, and John Custis wanted to see the two fortunes united by marriage. Colonel Daniel Parke Custis persisted in his preference for Martha Dandridge, and his father finally consented to the match. It was a happy one while it lasted, and Martha, Custis had four children, two of whom were living at the time she married Washington. By the death of her first husband she was left wealthy, and she brought to her new husband about 1100,000 in money and a large amount of real estate. Martha Custis was a belle at seventeen, and at twenty-six she was a blooming widow. She was under mid-, die size, and had dark brown eyes and hair. Washington is said to have beep a homely young man and a very ftnelooking^ kl one. Martha Washipgton was a very pretty girl, but not a -very good-looking old woman. As she matured she grew stout; and though her pictures represent her as a beauty, the current history of the times sflys she was a plainly-dressed, robust old woman, who looked older than her husband. She was not nbted for her social nor her intellectual qualities. She could not spell, arid probably did not read a book front one end of the year to the other. She was a sort of goodygoody woman, who almost always had knitting-needles in her hands, and who thought she did a great thing when she saved th^ ravelings / of a lot of old black silk stockings and worn-out chahycovers and wove them into a dress for herself. /She was very proud of her husband; a4d they show the little room in the second story of the home at Mount Vernon in which she secluded herself after his death, seeing no one for months, and allowing only a cat to ent^eV the room, through a hole which was/cut under the door.—-2,y>- pineotVa jaagazine for July. / Budding Intellects.

"What ails me?" repeated Patty, shrugging up one shoulder and looking very hard at the-box of mixed hairpins that she was making a pretext of arranging. "Nothing ails me. Why should you ask?"' "Because," said Mr. Denbrooke, with grave, fatherly kindness, "you are not your old self at all. Because your mind is not on your business. Be- —eause whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well. Patty, my girl, you're an orphan, and our Charley thinks a deal of you—-two good reasons that I should be glad to have you here in my store. But, Patty, your services will be worth nothing at all to me if vou don't put a little more heart into them." Patty contracted her pretty arched brows and muttered something about "not expecting to spend all her days in a thread-and-needle store," which Mr. Denbrooke made it convenient not to hear. But Grizzy Walters, the foreman, nodded her head significantly as Patty went out. "Ah I" said Grizzy in a meaning sort of a monosyllable. "She's got a beau!" '•Eh!" said Mr. Denbrooke. "Oh! you mean my nephew Charley," with a glance at the high-railed cashier's desk where the identical Charley in question was at that moment engaged in footing up a long column of figures. "No. Not your nephew. Patty has taught herself to look higher thanany store clerk now." "Grizzy Walters, what do you mean?" demanded Mr. Denbrooke. "He boards at the St. Nicholas and wears "fine broadcloth and varnished boots," said Grizzy. "He's a fine gentleman, and comes in here often to buy little things. I saw him when he first came and said something pretty to __ Patty about her blue eyes. They walk together Sunday afternoons, an.d Patty thinks she's going to be a fine lady." *• "I must Speak to Patty about it" said Mr. Denbrooke, much disturbed. "Patty! Patty!" he remonstrated. "Fine gentlemen don't mean any good when they come philandering around store girls. Take warning, Patty, child." But Patty Price only flounced out of the room. It was late when she escaped from the store that night—past 10, with a full moon shining in the sky; and just as she slipped out of the side door Charley Denbrooke came forth from the other entrance, i "I may go home with you, Patty?" "I'd rather walk home alone," said Patty. "It is late." "I am not at all afraid." "Does she mean to give me the mitten?" he asked himself. <TU follow her at a distance and see that she gets home safe. She can't prevent that." • But Charley wavered in h*s resolution when, turning the oerner by the park, he saw Patty joined by a- tall, stylish figure in a fur-trimmed overcoat and silk hat. He paused a second, looking after them, and then turned back with a heait' as heavy as lead in his bosom. Meanwhile Patty tripped along by the side of her'cavalier, as light as a lark. "Let me acti" said Mr. Sinclair, Patty's companion, "it's your 18th birthday to-morrow." "How did you know it?" cried out the enchanted girl. "A little bird told me." (Mr. Sinclair might have said with more truth that the innocent damsel had divulged the fact some days ago in her unconscious prattle), "and I haven't forgotten it. I don't forget. Here's a birthday gift for you," "Not $100 Dili," cried Patty, as the gleam of a s^reetlamp fell across the slin of paper in her lover's hand. 'Oh, that's nothing. I would have picked out something myself fcfl had thought I could have suited you." Patty's eyes glittered^ , Hejre was princely generosity! How long.would it have been before Charley Denbrooke gave her a $100 bill. She asked for an afternoon's holiday the next day and went out with glowing cheeks and dimpling lips to make all-important purchases. What would Grizzy Walters and all. the other shophands say when they saw her in a new velvet basque? She bought it and ordered it sent to the store. .. „ _ "I'll try it on there," she thought, "and then they can all see it," But the next morning when she took off her bonnet and shawl in the back of the stqre, in walked the proprietor of the velvet cloak establishment with a big policeman at his elbow. "We want Miss Martha Anne Price," said he. "She bought a cloak at our place yesterday, and she paid for it with one of the new counterfeit bills. Here it is—a $100 bill." "Impossible!" cried Mr. Denbrooke. "Quite out of the question," said Charley, bouncing down from the cashier's desk. "Our Patty never could MICHIttAW MBWS. »» Montpenin a low "It is quite true." said Patty, as she advanced, pale as|death and trembling all over. "I did buy the cloak. I did pay the $100 bill for it and received $20 in change. Here it is in my pocket now. But I never dreamed that the bill was anything but a good one." "I've heard all that before," remarked the policeman. "Where did you get it?" "It was given me by Mr. sier Sinclair," she answered, tone. "Can you identify him?" "Certainly." "Then p'raps you'd better come along with us. If you're really only a tool in his hands, why things won't go quite so hard with you. Step lively, anyhow I We can't stand here waiting all day." "Stop!" said Charley Denbrooke, "I will go with her." . And Patty's limpid eyes, all swimming in tears, thanked him. Mr. Montpensier Sinclair was duly identified by the poor, mortified Patty. "Oh," said Mr. Sinclair, who sat on a rail at the police station, swinging his legs' easily and chewing a straw for lack of a cigar, "it's the pretty shopgirl! I thought so." And Patty colored redder than ever with indignant mortification. As it was so evident that she was an instrument in the hands of the crafty counterfeiter, Patty Price was released without any further trouble, alfci she returned to the store a sadder and a wiser girl. "Charley," she faltered, "I've treated you shamefully." "Never mind that, Patty, darling," said young Denbrooke. "We're all liable to mistakes, and I'm only glad you've found yours out before it was too late." And so they "kissed and made up," as all true lovers should. Don't Boycott Uncle Sam. The Executive Committeemen of the Grand Lodge of the Brotherhood of Kailway Mail Clerks had better think twice before they decide upos sending the Postmaster-General the resignations of their associates now in their associates now in their keeping. It is very unlikely that their demand or request for an explanation from that functionary of the dismissal of twentynine members of their association recently will be responded to. His reasons have been given, and they indicate that any further attempt to boycott Uncle Sam will prove unfruitful of good results to the boycotters. They ought to bear in mind that the Postoffice Department is overflowing with applications for appointments, and that the head of that department has made more removals than any. other officer of the Cabinet. There is a congressional election coming, and a few judicious appointments of railway mail clerks would help democratic candidates in close districts. Railway mail clerks, are, it is true, skilled employes, but new men have been in training to take their places. Their work can be done by the substitutes.

A Romaaee froaa Corea. Letter in London Times: For parents and near kinsfolk it is customary in Corea to mourn three years. What a deep influence this prescriptive usage has upon the life of the people is illustrated by the following story of an aged bachelor who was asked why he had never taken a wife. "My parents, as well as myself," he said, "were desire that I should marry, and a suitable youhg lady being found, our betrothal took place. Then my future father-in-law died, and we had, of course to wait three years. I had hardly put off my mourning when I had to bewail the loss of my own poor father; necessarily here was another term of three years. When these were up the mother of my future wife took sick and expired, and thus we were gbliged to delay our marriage another three years. Lastly I had the misfortune to lose my own dear mother, which naturally caused another adjournment.

My future brbther-'in-law met meat the door and said: 'Although" you are not formally married, yet perhaps, I may for this once look upon yuo as man and wife; come in and see her.' I had only entered the room and been for a moment face to face with my poor wife than she breated her last When I saw this all thought of marriage fled from me, and I have remained a bachelor ever since." 4ftC BY FARTHI HOST POPULAR COftV • SITS) KVIft INTRODUCKO. tSIO.00 REWARD: O" ANY STRIP OP COftALmC THAT MCAftc " T H SIX MONTHS OMDtNASY WEAR IN ACOSSCt.

"Go In. you naughty girl! Do not you know that sisters should never teil tales of one another?" Kitty shrugged her , shoulders, and pouted in an aggrieved fashion. Lord Ingestyre looked i»y no means pleased by her flattering confidence, and she felt that, though she had succeeded in paying off many an old grudge, so fur as her sister was concerned, yet that tbe honor of the occasion did not rest w th her "It wjis vour fjinlt: yon made me t e l l ^ she cried defiantly ; " and Flora xyjis-^fn a rage, >he said papa ins sied^orfiTringing the panper here, and thejKwante I to drag her out of her prope'fplace and disgrace a s all.

What He Don't Know About Mineral Water, Summer Heiorts and other thine*. Boston Globe: I have just been oyer to the Falls of Minnehaha. In fact I have been f l u i t e a tourift and summer resorter this season, having saturated my system with nineteen different styles of mineral water in, Wisconsin alone, and tried to win the attentions of nineteen different styles of " h^ad waiters' mt' these summer-hotels. I may add in passing, that the summer hotels of Wisconsin and Minnesota have been crowded full the past season and room will have to be added more before another season comes around. w TEE MAN WHO DOES EOT FEE THE WAITER.

You start the fire with kerosene, You break the fancy dishes. You take my rasor at the time You want to scale the fishes. You're always lick, and stay in bed On wash-day, which la Monday, And cheekily appropriate My wife's new bonnet Sunday. Yon letthe Ares all KO^OUV ^- - - ^ - ^ You burn the mulligatawny. And in the house I'd rather have A Modoc or a Pawnee. I trust the time may some time come— The vision is ecstatic— When we may hare a servant girl Entirely automatic. PEOPLE DRINK AND LOOK DEPRESSED with the temperence problem in a praeitcil way, and I have about decided that a high license is abont the only way to make the sale of whiskey odious. Prohibition is too abrupt in its methods, and one generation can hardly wipe out the appetite ior liquor that has been planted and fostered for tifty preceediog generations. For fear that a few of my lady readers do not know what the Mtunjehaha blind pig lonkf like, and that they may be curious about it, I will just say that it is a method of evading the law, and consists of a dumb waiter, wherein, if you pay ten cunts you get a glass of stimulant without the annoyance o f f tual daily record 37 pounds conversation. Many ladies who visit the falls, and who have heard incidentally about the blind pig, express a desire to see the poor little thing, but their husbands generally persuade them to refrain. The motto of the summer hotel seems to be, "Unless ye shall have feed the waiter, behold ye shall in no wise be fad." Many waiters atthese places, by a judicious system of blackmail and starvation, have reduced the guest to a sad state. The mineral water of Wisconsin ranks high as a beverage. Many persons are using it during the entire summer in the place of rum. The water of Waukesha does not appear. to taste of any mineral, although an analysis shows the presence of severaTk~ fi)ds of groceries in solution. The water at Palmyra Springs also tastes like any other pure water, but at Kankanna, on the Fox river, they have a style of mineral water which is different. Almost as soon as you taste it you discover that it is extremely different. THE MAN WHO DID FEE THK WAITER. Colonel Watrous of the Milwaukee Sunday Telegraph took some of it. I saw him afterward. He looked depressed, and told me that he had been deceived. Several Kankanna people had told him that this was living water. He had discovered otherwise. He hated to place his confidence in people and then find it misplaced. A favorite style of Kankanna revenge is to drink a quart "of this water, and then, on meeting an enemy, to breathe on him and wither him. One breath produces syncope and blind staggers. Two breaths induce coma and metallic casket for one. ' Minnehaha is not mineral water. It is just plain water, giving itself away day after day like a fresh young man in society. If you want pure water, you get it at the spring near the fool of the fall, and if you want it flavored with something that will leave a blazed road the whole length of your alimen tary canal, you go to the "blind pig" a few roads away from the falls. Tha blind pig draws many people toward the falls through sympathy. To. be blind must indeed be a sad plight. Let us pause and reflect on this proposition. By good fortune I have had a chance to watch the rum problem in all its phases this summer. Beginning in Maine, where the most ingenious method of whipping the devil around the stomp are adopted, then going through northern l o w * and tasting the exhilarating pop, and at last paying tan cents to sea the blind pig at Minnehaha, I *•#! like one who has wrestled VISITING THE MINNEHAHA BLIND PIG. Minnehaha is a beautiful waterfall. It is not so frightfully dnargcj a grand s Niagara, but it is very tine, and if the State of Minnesota would catch the man who nails his signs on the trees around there, and choke him to death near vhe falls on a pleasant day, a large audience would attend with much pleasure. I believe that the fenceboard advertiser is not only as a rule, wicked, but he also lacks common sense. Whoever bought a liver pad or a corset because he read about it on a high board fenceP No one. Whoever purchased a certain kind of pill or poultice because the name of that pill or poultice was nailed on a tree to disfigure a beautiful landscape? I do not believe that any sane human being ever did so. If every one feels as I do about it, people would rather starve to death for pills and freeze to death in a perfect wilderness of liver pads than buy of the man who daubs the fair face of nature with the names of his alleged goods. I saw a scjnaw who seemed to belong in the picture of the poetic little waterfall. I did not learn her name. It was one of these long, corduroy Sioux names, that hang together with hyphens like a lot of sausage. The salaried humorist of the party said he never saw sausage a name before. Translated into our tongue it meant The-swift-daughter-of-the--prairie-bliz- -zard-that-ga thers-the-huckle berry- on- -the-run-and-dont-you-forget-it.—BILL NYE. A Georgia Woman's Fortune. A few years ago Mrs. Rachel Francis, of Atlanta, Ga., concluded that she could make money by going into the dairy business, and managing to get a few dollars together, she bought a'cow and began business. It was on a small scale, but she prospered, and after a time she had bought a dozen or more cows. The work wasdone by her. She was up early and late. After milking the cows she would prepare the milk for market and deliver it to her customers. In two years after Mrs. >rancU engaged in the dairy business she was known by nearly every citizen. She was strictly business, and went wherever her business called her, no matter where that was Mrs. Francis invested her money as fast as she made " it, and her investments always proved good one*. Mrs. Francis died a few days ago, leavnlg an estate valued at 140,000, including a dairy farm of seventy-five acres, well improved and stocked, near Atlanta. Judging Cow«, Do not be too particular about the horns, head, neck and ears of your cow. Some men base their judgment largely rienced dairyman, and gives his stand ard thus: 1 love to see a fine head, neck and shouldep, but I rely mostly on the milk veins, escutcheon and form of the udder. I have a cow that recently calved, and is free from all that good judges would pronounce handsome. Her horns are very long and coarse: her hair is coarse; her eyes mean, but her udder is well quartered; her milk veins large; her escutcheon tine her acthus far. bent down and dipped into strong soap-suds, the insects may be killed. It out of reach, syringe them with kerosene emulsion. This is so generally iseful as an insecticide on plants that we repeat it here: Stir kerosene with half as much milk until no oil is visible; then dilute with twelve times its bulk of water. This will kill almost all insects without injury to the plants. Watch for the currant-worm, and as soon as the leaves appear ragged apply white hellebore—a tablespoonful to the pail of water—by means of a syringe. Rej>eatjn about a week. For Potato Disease. A Scotish scientist has recently discovered that sulphate of iron is not only a plant food, but that it has also important antiseptic properties, and will destroy the spores of parasite fungi which attack our crops. He has given the results of his experiments, which show that the vitality of the spores taken from diseased potatoes, and on the general appearance of jhe fore- proving that these spores may be parts. This is a mistake, says an expe- I kept as dry dust for a period of eight months without losing their vitality. It was pointed out, as bearing on the production of these spores, that potash had an important influence in aiding their growth, and that accordingly in damD, warm weather, which is especially favorable for their development, the potato disease is probably furthered by the use of potash manures. The spores are quickly destroyed by being treated in a solution of ferrous sulphate, which penetrates the cellular walls of the spores without injuring those of the higher organisms. He advocated the' application of a weak solution of ferrous sulphate to farmyard manure before being applied to the land. M B S . F O L S O M . Clover For Shade.' There is probably no other plant in the worfd of such value to the farmers for this purpose. It furnishes the most perfect protection to the soil during the fierce dry heats of the summer. Being a deciduous its leaves arc -perpetually falling and soon form a delicate covering for shade, and easily penetrated at all points by the air, which is the great carrier to the worn- •out soil of those atmospheric elements that are to enrich it. In this way the clover plant not only contributes directly to the fertilizing of the soil by giving its own substance to it, but it furnishes a protective covering to the ground, which encourages and stimulates those chemical processes by which the hungry and exhausted soil is recuperated from the vast supplies of nutriment that are held in the atmosphere. It becomes to the farmers the most valuable fertilizer in the world, as it imparts fertility to the entire soil. •«. Nail in a Hone's Foot. When the horse-shoer pricks the foot with'a clean nail, which is at once withdrawn and the hole filled with a few drops of turpentine, the chances are that no harm shall 'come of it; But if nothing is done and the horse goes lame and lamer before the shoe is taken oft" and the nail drawn, the probability is that the wound will fester. The thing to do is, after removing the shoe, to cut the nail hole out, following it exactly until it bleeds frcelyk Th,en syringe or sop it out with a carbolic acid water, and till the opening loosely with a pledget of lint, or oakum. Renew this treatment daily, and do not replace the shoe until supparation ,-censes. If the horso picks up a nail on the road, the treatment should be quite similar. The nail being blunter and often dirty, the wound is usually a worse one, and the sensitive parts bruised, so that suppuration follows. In caso the bone is pierced, and the pus is abundaLt and offensive, a veterinary surgeon should be consulted, but meanwhile inject carbolic acid several times a day. If several, days intervene between the time when the na'l is picked up, and when it is discovered, the same treatment is followed— but if a pus sack is found, out of which the matter squirts, care must be taken to make the opening large" enough to clear it all out, andjbe sure that carbolic acid touches every part. A porner Closet. Where it is necessary to have everyday hats, over-coats, umbrellas, etc., in the sitting or dining room, this corner closet will be found a convenient place for shielding them from view, and protecting them from dust; besides it is often an improvement to the appearance of the room. A triangular board is fastened in a corner at the properhight, and a curtain made of cretonne, or dark Canton flannel, hung from it on a piece of strong wire, and brass rings. A number of hooks are placed on each side of the closet, and a narrow band across the' bottom, to keep the rubbers in. A pocket is made for the umbrellas, canes, etc., and tacked in the corner. An old straw hat, gilded or pain ted, is placed on the top, filled with grasses and cat-tails. insects. This will be a lively month with insects. The curculio attacks the plums soon after the fruit is set. Jarring the trees and catching the fallen insects upon sheets spread upon the ground is the only effective remedy. Plant-lice of ten appear in great numbers at the ends of the branches of cherry, pear and other fruit trees. If these can be OUtng Wagon Wlseels. ve a wagon of which six years ago the felloes shrank so that the tires became loose. I crave it a good coat of hot oil, and every year since it has had a coat of oil or paint, sometimes both. The tires are tight, yet they have not been set for eight or nine years. Many farmers think that as Boon as the wagon felloes begin to shrink they must go at once to a blacksmith shop and get the tires set. Instead of doing that, which is often a damage to the whee^, causing them to dish, if they will get some linseed oil and heat it boiling hot and give the felloes all the oil they will take, it will fill them up to their usual size and tighten to keep them from shrinking, and also keep out the water. If you do not wish to go to tho trouble of mixing paint you can heat the oil and tie a rag to a stick and swab them over as long as they will take oil. A brush is more couve nient to use, but a swab will rdo if you "do not wish to buy a brush. It is quite a saving of money to look after tho woodwork of farm machinery. Alternate wetticg and drying injures and causes the best woed soon to decay and loose its strength unless kept well painted and oiled. It pays to keep a little oil on hand to oil fork handles, rakes, neck ypkes, whiftletree and any of the small tools on the farm that are more or less exposed. Current Nates. Milk should never bo allowed to stand where it is subjected to foul odors of any kind. When tho burners of lamps become clogged with char, put them in strong soap-suds and boil awhile to clean them. Ten ten-penny nails dipped in gold varuish are bound together by a crimson ribbon and make an artistic paper weight. Cows must have an abundance of good wholesome food, pure and not too cold water, to which they-cah have access at all times. ' , r ' On taking boiled-eggs from the kettle, chip the sheTls on the ends to let the steam-out and prevent their cooking^ mbre. A little borax put in the water in which scarlet napkins and red-bordered towels are to be washed will prevent them fading. A tablespoonful of powdered alum sprinkled into a hogshead of water And stirred will precipitate to the bottom all the impure particles. Make covering of leather or strong cloth, and fasten them on the spurs of your gobbler, and round off the points of his claws at this time of the year. If he is very large this is important. Celery may be kept indefinitely by wrapping around it a heavy brown towel wrung out of cold water. When the towels get dry renew the water. A London cook says that a turkey is improved by roasting it covered with bacon and paper, to be taken off a short time before it is brown. Pure water is healthful. Impure water is one of the greatest conveyers of the germs of disease. Let the fountains be shielded from droppings and all sorts of filth or dirt. If a horse comes to the stable wet, he should be rubbed dry before the blanket is put on. If he is standing about in the cold, it should be put on. The legs should be rubbed, and the hoofs always examined for stones. If the milk is for butter or cream for the creamery or market, cool the creamer to abont 40 or 45 degrees before turning the milk into it. Put the milk in the creamer as soon as drawn. It should remain from 12 to 24 hours for complete separation. Mrs. Folsom, the mother of Miss Francis Folsom, whom President Clevelonp has just made the "first lady of tbe4ftndr ' is-the widow of the late Oscar Folsom, the former law partner of President Cleveland. Mr. Folsom was killed at Grand Island in 1675 by being thrown from a bugg7 in a runaway accident, Miss Folsom being at that time only 11 years old, and the manner in which Mrs. Folsom has performed those duties which devolve i|pon a woman who is left alone in the world to rear a family of children is evidence of a well-balanced mind and characteristics such as few women possess. Shortly after the death of Mr. Folsom his widow took ber children to Ransomville, where, living with an uncle, their preliminary education was attended to.' Mrs. Folsom is a few years the junior of President Cleveland amLa marriage with him was therefore not such an improbable thing. Mrs. Folsom accompanied her daughter to Europe and assisted her in the selection of the trousseau which was so much admired. Mrs. Fol«om, on account of her6 daughter's marriage will be one of the leaders of Washington society, • « a* Ex-Pre»ldent Arthur. A correspondent writing from New London, Ct., where Mr. Arthur is at present, says those admitted to, his presence are shocked by his emacieWd and gaunt appearance. He has improved in health and appearance within a month, but he is a sick man still, but is not discouraged or despondent. There was a time when his condition gave rise to the most anxious fears, but a vigorous constitution, good nursing and a cheerful disposition brought him through the crisis. His mind is clear as a bell and he talks on the current events of the day with as much zest and perspicacity as when he was in tho White House. His trouble is purely stomachic. He lives on whiskey and milk altogether—a sufficient proof that he is not suffering, as the papers maintain, from kidney trouble. Of course it would be ridiculous to predict that he will ever recover from his ailment, but in the light of Slis recent improvement and the diagnosis of his physician, the odds are vastly in his favor. Before -he left "New York Gen. Arthur was in his dentist's chair,art hour, a trial sufficient to weakep tho most robust man. No.sir. Gen. Arthur was a very sick man, but his friends are very much oncourage'd by the rpcent strides of improvement in his condition." Cnrlous Ancient Marriages, "A few days ago, [June, 1778,] was married at St. Bridget's church, in Chester, Mr. George Harding, aged 107,toMrs. Catherine Woodward,aged 8:3. So singular a union could not fail of exciting the admiration and surprise of a numerous ' congregation before whom the ceremony was performed. The bridegroom served in the army 39 years, during the reigns of Queen Anne, George I., and the part^of George II. He is now particularlyhearty, in great spirits, and retains all his faculties to an extraordinary perfection. This is his fifth wife; the last one he married in his one hundred and fifth year, and he is Mrs. Woodfourth hushand. It is also worthy of observation that the above old man's diet has been for the last thirty years past chiefly buttermilk boiled with a little flour, -and bread and cheese.'" As a pendant to this we come across another announcement a few years later: "Mr. Thomas Dawson, of Northallerton, aged 90, to Miss Golightly, a bouncing damsel of 64.

His father was Samuel Atkins Elliot, author of the "History of Harvard College,11 a member of Congress from 1850 to 1855, and for eleven years Treasurer of Harvard College. At the age of fifteen the son entered Harvard, and graduated in 13Sft~witnhigh honors. Immediately afterwards he was appointed tutor of mathematics, and held that until 1858, when he became assistant profossor in chemistry. In order to perfect himself in chemical research, and to study the various methods of mathematical and literary education in England and on the Continent, he went abroad in 1868, resigning his professorship. Returning home in 1865 he was appointed Professor of Chemistry and Metallurgy. PRESIDENT ELIOT PRESIDENT M^OSn OP OF HARVARD. PRINCETON. in I860 he succeeded Dr. Thomas Hall as President of Harvard University, and has graced that office ever since. He has been a frequent-contributor to the Atlantic Monthly~and other periodicals. He is the joint author of a "Handbook of Chemistry." In I860 he received the decree of L. L. D. from Williams and Princeton, and in 1870 from Yale. Timothy Dwight, D.D., L. L. D., is the grandson of Timothy Dwight who was President of Yale from 1795 to 1817. The present President is the successor of President Porter, who retired May 20th last. President Dwight was born in Norwich, Conn., in 1828, and was graduated at Yale in 1849. He was a student in the theological school for two years, and a tutor ia the college for four. In 1856.he went to Europe, where he remained for a year and a half. In 1858 he becamo Professor of Sacred Literature at Yale. He was an active member of the American Committee for the revision of the English version of the Bible. President James McCosh of Princeton was born in Aryshiro, Scotland, April 1, 1811. His early education was at the parish school, and later at the universities of Glasgow and Edi'riburg. At the last mentioned institution he showed his philosophic tendency by an essay on tho stoic philosophy, for which the degree of Master of Arts was conferred on him, while he was yot a student. He became a minister of the church of Scotland, first in Arbroath and later in Brechin. At the disruption of the church in 1843 he gave up his Hying and became a member of t" Free Church. In 1850 ho pu>Hsled his first work, entitled 4,Th>~Method of Divine Government, ^-Physical and Moral," which at^orice brought him into promincaotramong the scholars of the day. -The Earl of Clarendon, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, became interested in him and appointed .him to a vacant professorship in the then newlyestablished Queen's College at Belfast. He was successful as an instructor, and during his professorship miblished numerous philosophical works, which had a large circulation. In 1868 he accepted the Presidency of Princeton College. Since that time, under his sway the number of students, professors, and buildings has been more than doubled. Beside administering the affairs of the college so successfully (toward which the public has given upward of $2,000,000), he has given instruction in several branches of philosophy. His principal works are "Laws of Discursive Thought," a "Treatise on Formal Logic," "The Emotions/' and "History of Scottish Philosophy." elected President of the University of Mississippi, and in 1864 became President of Columbia College. His career has been eminently suoces sfu. He is the author of ''Report of Mechanics and the Industrial Arts," "Treatise on Arithmetic," "Letters on Collegiate Government," History of the United States Coast Survey." The Recent Progress of Science," "The Metric System," and many minor articles. He has been President of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Board of Experts of Mines^ He has received the degree of LL. D. from Yale College, Jefferson College, and the University of Mississippi. Unusual ability has characterized the life and labors of Samuel Colcord Bartlett, President of Dartmouth College, from the time of his entrance as a student at Dartmouth until now. He was born at out 1823 in a small village in the interior of New Hampshire. Despite his arduous duties on his father's farm he managed to fit himself for college, and at an early age entered as a freshman at Dartmouth. Throughout his course there he was a close student, ' and at graduation was one of the foremost in his class. After graduation he applied himself to a severe course of theological study and was duly ordained as a minister of the Congregationa- Church. For a time he preached n various New England pulpits, and finally removed to Chicago. Here he entered politics and received the nomination for Mayor. Long John Wentworth, another well-known Dartmouth man, who is at present President of the Dartmouth Alumni, was his political adversary, and by a remarkably close vote the future President of the college was defeated by the future President of the alumni.

A write in the Humane Journal declares that it is not humane to ref ase your horse sufiicient and good water; to give him decaying and insufficient food; to let him go ungroonied; to scratch his skin with an iron or wire-tooth curry-comb; to shear his mane or tail; to use oyer checks or blinders; to put frosted bits into his mouth; to work him when his shoulders are sore, or ride him when his back is galled by a cruel saddle; to drive him when he is lame; to drive him upon stone pavements, or icy roads, with smooth shoes; to drive him in a storm or let him stand in one without protection: to let him stand in the cold without blankets or other warm covering; not to furnish him good and sufficient beddfng at all times? to drive him too fast; to jerk him by the bits;to whip him up hill or to.raue ridges upon him with a whip; to strike him if he shies; to strike him if he stumbles: to whip or beat him if he balks; to work him more than twelve hours a day; to turn him out when old to die of neglect or starvation. Cora Fodder. Why not get in a good crop of corn fodder, there is plenty of time yet. Various and satisfactory tests have been made of the nutritive qualities of corn fodder. It has been conclusively shown that if corn is sown broadcast or planted .in drills, the foder possesses more nutrition than nay, and even more milk-giving elements than any other forage. If sown thickly, so as to prevent the maturity of the 'seed, it is better still. This is based upon the principle that the* seed-forming elements are retained in' the stalk, thereby increasing the nutritive matter. Clover plowed under before coming to seed is a richer inanuro than if taken when ripe. Hay that has been permitted to go to seed before cutting has lost half of fu value. These facts are adduced in mppott of the above theory. Considering the little labor necessary to sow corn, and the little time required to prepare the soil, it ought to become a more universal article of food for cattle.

Hoe the perfecter of all printing presses, died in Florence, Italy June 8, of heart-disease: Mr. Hoe had gone abroud for health and pleasure, and was aparently in his usual good health when stricken down. His invention of the rotary press and later* of the web-printing machine made his name a familiar one through out the civilized world. Mr. Hoe was boru in New York City, Sep.' 12, 1813. His father was an inventor of presses. When the young man was 20 years old he had familiarized himself with the details of the business and was virtually at the head of his father s business. In 1783 the discussion of printing by steam was attracting the thought of inventors and scientists. The arguments pro and con were discussed in Mr. Hoe's shops, in which the young master intelligently participated. In 1829 Mr. Adams cf Boston perfected the Adams press and the following year the Napier press was turned out by a british factory. The Hoes wore called upon to set up one of the last-named presses, and it worked to such advantage that it set them thinking. They made models of its peculiar parts and studied them carefully. Then the announcement that Hoe's double-cylinder press, cap-. able of making 6,000 impressions Jan hour, had been completed, attracted general attention. This press supplied the journals of the day with all needed facilities, but, as tiieir circulation increased, greater speed in printing was demanded and the inability to supply this demand caused a complete chante in Mr. Hoe's temperament. One night as he tossed from side to side in his bed, being unable, to sleep, be got up. to walk about the room, as he arose seeing clearly a solution tothelongvexe J problem. It was a plan for securing type on a horizontal cylinder. Rushing to his desk he drew the diagram, which, after the details were perfected, resulted in the lightning press. \ \ l*3i ' • - & • » • > - -i m m * M \ ijjli/v, '!<•'• ' W - V » T U S E C H A .

LOUIS, MO., July 10.—The second attempt to form a coal syndicate in St. Louis, embracing the mining interest in Southern Illinois within a radius of fifty miles, has proven successful,and articles of incorporation of the new organization have been forwarded to the Secretary of State of Illinois. The incorporators are E. J . Crandal, A. F . Donk and Edward Devoy, and the capital stock is placed at $5,000- 000, said to be held principally by St. Louis men who are in the syndicate. The combination takes in all the mines in southern Illinois, with the exception of perhaps half a dozen. The object of the corporation is self-protection, the inadequate operation of the interests in the past having proven unsatisfactory, and often incurring a loss, for the reason that one company, with certain fixed charges, could not operate to its full capacity, for by so doing it would cut into the business of a competitor, and thus endanger the maintenance of peaceful relations. Several remedies where resorted to without result, and finally the syndicate plan was decided upon, and, after two attempts, has at last been completed.

The "following executive order was issued by the President Wednesday afternoon: EXKCUTIVK MANSION, WASHINGTON, D. ('., July 14, 1886. T o the Heads of Departments in the service of tne General Government: I deem this a proper time to especially warn all subordinates in the several departments a n d all officeholders under the General Government against the use of the official positions in attempts to control political movements in their localities. Officeholders are the agents of Jfhe people, not their masters. Not only is their time and labor due to the Government, but they should scrupulously avoid in their political action as well as in the discharge of their official duty offending by a display of obtrusive partisanship their neighbors, who have relations with them as public officials. They should alao constantly remember that their party friends from whom they have received preferment have not invested them with the power of arbitrarily m a n a g i n g the political affairs. They have no right as officeholders to dictate the political action of their party associates or to throttle freedom of action within party lines by ' methods and practices which pervert every useful and justifiable purpose of party organization. The influence of Federal offices should not be felt in the manipulation of political primary meetings and n o m i n a t i n g conventions. The use by these officials of their positions to compass their section as delegates to political conventions is indecent and unfair, and proper regard for the proprieties and requirements of official place will also prevent their assuming the active conduct of political campaigns. Individual interest and activity in political affairs are by no means condemned. Officeholders are neither disfranchised nor forbidden the exercise of political privileges, but their privileges are not enlarged, nor is their duty to party increased to pernicioos activity by officeholding. A just discrimination in this regard between the things a citizen may properly do and the purposes for which a public office should not be used, is easy in the light of a correct appreciation of the relation between the people and those intrusted with official place and a consideration of the necessity under our form of government of political action free from official coercion. You are requested to communicate the substance of these views to those for Whose guidance they are intended. GiUIVKli C l . K V K L A M ) . ( O V M t K N H I O W L .

H o w to Avoid P r e m a t n r e Old Ag«. The following good advice is given by Dr. Benjamin Ward Richardson: When old age has really commenced, its march toward final decay is best delayed by attention to those rules of conservation by which life is sustained with the least friction and the least waste. The prime rules for this purpose a r e : ! To subsist on light but nutritious diet, with milk as the standard food, but varied according to season. To t a k e food in moderate quantity, four times in the day, including a light meal before going tp bed. T o ' clothe warmly but lightly, so that the body m a y n in all seasons, maintain its equal temperature. '-To keep the body in fair exercise, and the mind active and cheerful. To maintain an interest in what is going on in the world, and to take part in reasonable labors and pleasures, as though old age were not present. To take plenty ef, sleep during sleeping hours. To spend nine hours in bed at the least, and to take care during cold weather that the temperature of the bedroom is maintained at 60 degrees Fah. To avoid passion, excitement and luxury. -Scientific American. Rare Old KiiffliMh IMate. A very notable service of plate has just been sold in a London auctionroom for 1,900 guineas.

I'll tell you how a clever hummingbird shielded her little ones from the rain. There they were, a nestful, and the rain beginning to fall. The people who had watched the nest out of their windows were concerned about the young birds, but the mother bird evidently was prepared for the emergency. Near the nest grew a large leaf-Mt was a butternut tree—and on one side of the nest a small twig stuck put. When the drops began to fall she came quickly, and with many tugs pulled the leaf over the little nest for a roof and hooked it by the twig on the other side, which held it firmly. Thus the half-feathered babes were kept as dry under their green roof as if their house had been built by a carpenter, like sparrow houses all around on the trees. When the rain was over the mother came hack and unhooked the leaf.--.S7. Xirhnlmh— - - M I C H I G A N NKYVN. —Charlevoix had only three deaths in the past'*ix months. —M.

The great current of the ocean known as the Gulf Stream, issues from the Gull of Mexipo through the narrow strait between the-mainland of Florida and the Bahama Banks, and extends in it northerly and easterly course, parallel to the coast of the United States to the vicinity of Nantucket Shoals. Here its course changes still more to the eastward, extending quite across the North Atlaniic in the direction of the British Islands, a portion of the stream penetrating far into the Arctic seast of Northern Europe. The edge of tije stream next to the Atlantic Coast is well defined, the separation of the warm waters of the stream from the cold waters of the counter current from Baffin's Bay, which skirts the coast of North America, being well marked. The outer edge, on the other hand, is not so well defined, on account of the overflow or dispersion of the waters on the eastern limits.

H.e attributes this state of things largely to innutricious and insufficient food, and takes pain to say that partial and occasional starvation is not confined to children of the lowest class.

Yet, in spite of the apparent desolation of the district, two Italian organ-grinders are haunting the street. They play a tune or so behind one another nearly all day long,beginning before I get up. I don't interfere with them now. Several of the girls in the basement of the desolate mansion like it, and ours is a quiet street. Rut I have dismissed the organ-grinders in double-quick time. In Italy I found that the regular policeman's warning was 'Caminate!' The first time I tried it on an organ-grinder the effect was magical. 1 said to my man in a business-like way, '('aminate subito!' and he vanished like the apparition of a ghost.

He evaporated apples in two hours, strawberries in three hours, peachesin two hours, cherries in two hours corn in two bourse and all kinds of fruits proportionately quick, The evaporator is a marvel of simplicity and excellence, and can be made bv any one at a very trifling cost.

" But you think there will be more real harm done if he meets Miss Vane V Flora shrugged her shoulders. She felt irritated and vaguely suspicions of her companion's preternatural gravity; and, feeling this, she grew less pathetically impressive and more shrewdly swift in her retort. "As to that, I am not greatly concerned; but my father shall, if I can help it,, have-no second painful shock—no second numiof compensation-money to pay." "But are you sure that Miss Vane wilt befeovery easy to win, so sure to listen to Frank, even if he consoled himself so promptly !>" Flora Talbot's clear laugh rang juts musically, and every sih-er note was full of scorn.

Frank spoke with the angry vigor of a man personally aggrieved, so iVwas only natural that Lord Ingestyre should ask qu etly— " If you avow your own admiration so Ir^ukly, do you not think you may be a stumbiing-blockia the young lady's path, Talbot ?" Frauk flung away his cicarette end by way of emphasizing his dissent. " Not I. Before she had been a quarter of an hour in the house, Kitty had informed her that I was a hopeless scapegrace, bound to obey papa aud mamma and be a good boy, on. pain of being cut off with a shilling. No;. Flora has no fears for. me ; she knows I must marry to order, or not at all, quite as well as 1 do And. as for anything else " He paused, with a whistle aud a comically discomfited look. Lord Ingestyre filled up the suggestive blank. "Weil, such a thing as a'mere meaningless flirtation is not altogether out of your line. Your sister may dread that." "Certainly, she may dread that the skies will fall if she chooses to indulge in phantom fears," was the cool rejoinder. '.'But she knows well enough that the one thing is as likely as the other. Whv. Ingestyre, I should.as soon expect onr old sun-dial to flirt as that frosty young princess that Flo keeps locked up there- You just try it yourself, and see if she does not freeze you with a look !" Involuntarily Lord-Ingestyre's.eyes-followed the vague upward gesture with which the other pointed hiV remark, and it seemed to b.is startled fancy that a fair, proud young face was framed for a moment in the ivy-grown casement, where it, shone whitely in the pale light oi the moon, and then was suddenly_jwi£ndrawn. " Was that ?" hej>egWh~nrriedly ; but Frank did not let film finish the speech. " Yes, that is the captive in her bower," he answered lightly ; " a n d I only hope "she did not hear us discussing, her below." ^ , Lord Ingestyre hoped it too d£*mrtly, but he said nothing, and soon'after took his leave, much tp^-Flora Talboi's disgust. .^- ' ^ " N o w T w o n d e r which is the morethe young man mused on his meditative moonlit homeward walk—" whether Mag"- dulen Vane is an adventuress or an icicle V Well, time must show; but.on the -whole, I am iucliued to pin my faith on Fra^k.

Y Magdalen Vane turned at the sound of the sharp, imperative voice, and colored wtth surprise aud pleasure—it was only a stranger who addressed her, but somehow in her lonely pain/it seemed as thgugh fate had sent totier assistance an old and valued friend/ She ran lightly down the hall steps-that she had ascended in a weary, lagging fashion but a few seconds back, and stood bareheaded in the hot afternoon sunshine, with sparkling eyes and outstretched welcoming hands. "Miss." she began delightedly, and then and there paused, doubtful by what name she was to address her friend of the railway-carriage. "MissMufTet, if you please, my dear," the little lady put in, with a hob-goblinlike grimace—"the name was given to me in this house—I will tell you the story some day—and here, of all places, I choose to use it. But never mind that now ; you are all alone, I thiuk *" "Yes," Magdalen answered, a H£thfbe wlldered by the other's ecceirtpfcvivacity. "Mr. and Mrs. Talbot a r ^ h t o w n , and—" "And the fair Florrfte out riding with her brotheraoadueorare Ingestyre, whom. she hopesrto make her husband some day uow," Miss Muffet finished, with a nod. "But 1 did not want them ; I came to see you. Well, Cinderella, how haye you spent your holiday ?'" The' sharp eyes scanned the fair face keenly, noted the heavy swollen eyes and pretty lips that were pathetically downdrawn at the corners. Magdalen felt that this queer new triend>of hers was reading the sorrowful story of her life at Melina House plainly as in a printed book, and tnrned away, colonna faintly with a wounded pride and pa.n. Much as she longed for kindly sympathy,, pity was hard to bear. Miss Muffet misineerpretpd that flush, and said, with her tfhrill eldritch laugh— "Now yon are offended, and on your dignity, yon foolish Cinderella! Do not you know how the fairy godmother came to your namesakes assistance, and do I not look the character to the life t Will you dance at the ball tonight, Cinderella? Will yon carry off the prince from under your crual rival's nose ?" She spoke rapidly, and with acbnckllnfc > enjoyment of her own words that made them almost unintelligible to Magdalen; but she gathered enough to make her wonder whether the little lady's wits were not as distorted as her frame. "Will you not come rn out of the sun ?"• •he asked timidly; but Miss Muffet shook her head. '' "No; I can talk just as well on the threshold. 1 do not care to cross it—l bate this house! Do you wonder'at ihat—have you learned to love ii, Magdalen Vane ?"' "No," Magdalen replied in a low frightened tone. There seemed something oi disloyalty to the roof that afforded hei even a ^rud^ing shelter in that avowal; bnt she could not disregard the direct question or answer it with an untruth. "I thouglit not;" aud Miss Muffet seemed to lind an immense satisfaction in having her thought couiirrned. "And do you mean to stay ht-re, where you are nnhappy aud unwelcome both ?" "No,!' the girl replied again ; "I cannot do that. I wrote to Madame Gressant this morning, asking her to take me back."" "And sent the letter ?" Miss Mnffet questioned imperatively, almost angrily, as Magdalen thought. " No, not yef, I have it hero," she answered, simply showing it as she spoke; nml it was her turn to grow angry when. .Miss Muffet very coolly took the thin, crisp envelope out of her baud and tore it in two. "There—don't blaze up, child'" she said,with placid en/oyment of the girl's suddenly brightening eyes and flushing face, her evident dismay and, indignation. "Cinderella submku-d in all things to her godmother, and you must be as docile as she You shall not go buck to Brussels— you shall not stay here—you shall pack uj» your things with as little delay as possible, an 1 come to me," Magdalen could hardly believe her ears;: she stared in a bewildered fashion at the little win-h-like creature who had come so- suddenly and s'rtngely to.her. aid, then said, in a I e-i!aUng voice— "~ * " You arc jeering; you cannot nieari" that you wilt tah^ me, a perfect-st*anger, into yotir home!"' „>• Not a perfect-stranger !"

Magdalen asked, recalling, with a sharp pang of wounded pride, that scene of which she had been an unseen witness and partial auditor two days ago.

It was early morning, and Thomas, Lord '8 valet, had waited on his master's Americans guest to see w h a t he desired him to do for him. Thomas was too well-bred to appear to notice anything remarkable, butthere certainly was something odd inthe gentleman's manner, and he had not the look of one who had enjoyed refreshing slumbers. Twice be seemed on the» point of propounding a question—twice he checked himself. At last just as the man turned to leave the room he spoke: •'Thomas, I have been awake all n i g h t ' ' "My lord will regret to near it," said Thomas. "Something very odd disturbed m e , " continued the gentleman. "Have you any reason to believe that any of the women servants have lost their senses?'' "Any of the maids, sir," said Thomas. "Oh, no, sir. l a m sure none of the maids are out of their senses, sir." "One of the maids kept me awake all last night," satdrthe American. "One of the maids, sirPu cried Thomas. ^ , ^ ^ "Yes, T h o m a s . ^ ^ S h e ^ e p t running "^-tettSmyroom, at least every half hour, t q l o o k l n the glass and admire herself.

She wore a short quilted skirt, a little bodice and full white sleeves. She had a gold cross tied about her neck by a black ribbon, and wore a little cap on her black braids— a very young girl with a perfectly French face, Thomas. Do you know herP" Thomas* made no answer. He looked at the gentleman steadily and grew verv pale. At last he spoke: "If I have the honor of underslaiidyou, sir, the young pejseoa came through this door." ^ ^ ^ " Y e s , " said the^American. "More thjyj-ohce, s i r ? " "AbojuTonco an hour, from midnight unti^dawn "She was young, pretty, and Frenchlooking, and wore a quilted skirt, a bodice and a cap, s i r ? " "Exactly, T h o m a s . " "And smiled at you in the glass, here you saw her face? I understand she did not look toward you as she passed, sir?" "Right, Thomas." "May 1 beg you to do me the favor of loeking into this room, s i r ? " The gentleman followed Thomas to he door through which he asserted hat the young person had passed; and saw nothing but a square closet about twelve feet square, with no door save the one that opened into the large room and high in the, ceiling a little window through which a bird could scarcely have flown. It contained no furniture whatever. "You will acknowlege, sir,'* said Thomas very gravely, " t h a t any ordinary young person must have remained here if she had entered as you think ihe did, sir, and that we should now find her here, sir." "There must be a secret door—or— or some thing!" cried the American. " I am not mad, and 1 wa«» wide a w a k e . " "Yes, sir," said Thomas, still more solemnly. "As I remarked, an ordinary young person could not have contrived to disappear: but I am well aware that the young person you have seen is not an ordinary person, sir. She has been an apparition, sir, for more than two hundred years." "An apparition!" cried the American gentlemen. "Yes, sir," replied Thomas, an apparition, sir. I think you have seen Lady —'s gentlewoman Rosette, sir. It is ten years since she was seen here before to my knowledge, but she has oeen seen very often. Yes, sir, it must have been Rosette." " I should like to hear more about Rosette, 1 ' 6aid the gentleman. "Yes, sir," said the valet. "This is a very old family, and they, have li on this estate since the time of-^Jueen Elizabeth, and about t w t r h u n d t e d years ago there wa^jrKord Herbert-* my present m a s t e f i s Lord Herbert, as you k n o w > k l s a favorite name in the famjly--=who was a very gay, wild ng nobleman, and was a great admirer of the ladies, sir. However, by servants did not like—she brought a foreign maid with her from France— a girl named Rosette, and as pretty as a picture. "My lady thought all the world of her, and, of course, the people were jealous and talked against Rosette, and the women began to say something about the way m y lord looked at her However that might be my lady loved her, and I think she thought too much of herself to be jealous of her maid, until one day, sitting before her glass, Rosette combing her hair for her, she heard her husband come into the room. Her brck was toward him, and Rosette was behind her, »nd they forgot the mirror, and so, sir, she saw in it without stirring, both their faces, and she saw the girl smile at her husband, and she saw him smile back at her. She understood everything, but she never stirred and she never said anything to him, no, nor to the maid, sir. "This was her room, sir. In thai little closet Rosette h:id her bed, to be ready if she called her. But one morning my lady s bell rang furiously, and the maid who answered it was told to do my la'dy's hair, for Rosette had gone back to her native country. "All the time she was doing it to the girl though she hoard a ' faint, moaning sound, and was frightened, and went back to r«'st pale and trembling, and before night it was very well Known in the house that that little closet there was not only locked, but nailed up. "There was a coolness between my lord and my lady, and they keep very much apart; b u t t l e had told him also that Rosette had retumod to Franco and no one ever saw the ^irl again. "After that my lord seemed to take to his wild ways agaiu, in a measure, and drank a great deal, and my lady, lived very much alone. She nejv'erfrad a regular maid, and she^waTSarsh to those who waitedjonifer. There never were any children, but thev both lived to be verv old indeed, and" at last my lady died in this very room and was buried in the church yard yonder. "My lord was as eld as she by^th'at time, but as soon as the funeral was over he went into mvJatiy's room and stood a longr while' before the locked and n a i l e d o W e t door.

Aunt Susan ended the discussion by saying: "Sleep out in the street if you wish to; I prefer a good bed in a nice room. Sleep with the pigs or tbe oows if you like it; I prefer to sleep like a Christ i a n . " Aunt SUJ an is partly right. It is better to sleep in a jjood bed than out in the streets, or with the pigs. But it is a sad blunder to sleep without an open window.—Dio Lewis' Nuggets. • \ HUMILITY. • • * The Colombian Minister.

So was his lady, too, sir, though she was not very handsome and was vary haughty. " O n e Ihing, however, the English about it. Then they looked closer-aifcl the maids began to s c r e a m ^ a n d the old woman who remembered Rosette had called out her>Bame, and my lord turned his p a J e o l d eyes upon them like a g h d s t , and said: 'God forgive m>atfdhave mercy on both their souls,' and held out his hands to be helped back to his own room,whicn ho never left after. " I t wasn't much they found, only a few bones and an ornament or two, but it was plain that the girl had been tied hand and foot and bound to the bod and left there to die—if she was not murdered outright by the jealous lady. But ever since, sir, whenever thej» is going to be misfortune in the family, whoever sleeps here in this room sees Rosette come out of her closet and smile in the glass. No ono ei?er sees her face, only in reflection. I hope no trouble will follow now, sir." As for the American, he slept elsewhere the next night, ho had no admiration for ghosts, even the family ghosts of noblemen, and he had no desire to see Rosette smile at him in the glass again. The smiles of a phantom of two hundred years' standing are more awesome than bewitching. Night Atr. Beware of night air! This is one of Aunt Susan's solemn speeches. "Close your window when the sun goes down." This is another. The other night when she was drawling out the first of these favorite saws. I said to her, "My dear aunt, what can a man breathe at night, if he don't breathe night air? My dear aunty, did you ever go into a bedroom, where two Sersons had slept with closed windows? ow, aunty, you have a sharp nose; what do you think of that sort of air to feed the blood and brain? A great many people^ suck in that poison all night, and next morning buffer from dullness and headache. Aunty, did ever sleep out of doors? "Never, and I should expect to wake up dead if 1 did."

It was an intelligent New England family; they left Masachusetts wretched from scrofula. When I s a w them they were in fine health. I believe a great French author when he says:" "You may eat bad food, wear bad clothing, and never wash yourself; but if you breathe pure air day and nighfyou will never suffer from scrofula.

That g r a n d m a can cook a dinner so that all the children and grandchildren will admit that nobody can cook like grandma. She is, as the children say, "an honest truly" grandma. One day. not feeling well, grandma paid a visit to Helen. Helen's babies were all small then. The youngest was a golden-haired, blueeyed little spit-tire. Woman-like, "when she would she would, and when she would'ntyou couldn't make h e r . " After vain attempts one day to soothe the iittle one's temper, grandma gave it up and, turned the child over to its mother. Then grandma caniejn the house and sat down and -wrote a letter to the home folks. We.. all kno^v, when we read the postscript, that grandma was homesick *nd would be home before long. This was the postscript: ^ , - "Bonnie Jifctfif Bessie Gray, your merry eyes are blue as the skies on a balmy ^ - i u m r n e r day, " But your temper is getting beyond control, and when you set up to, cry one might as well try to stop the wind, or make old ocean backward roll.

The old writing desk, with its odd brass trimmings, its mahogany veneer, its carved legs and heavy back, was covered with papers.

It was not an easy task straightening out these papers."""He had a foolish way of saving his letters. There were not many of them, it is true, for he wrote very little during the latter part of his life, but it was difficult for his executors to decide what should be that whea-they found in a half hidden jjrawer a package of three love letters tied together with a bit of ribbon yellow with age and fragrant with the musty odor of time, they spread them out on the desk and concluded to leave them there till the new master arrived, when he should decide upon their fate.

It appears to have been the custom of the secretaries of State to go up in ordinary business dress. I never heard of any President putting on formal dress to receive these full dress visitors.

She is an attractive child, with a chubby face and light hair cut short over the forehead but falling in long, golden ringlets dowu the back. She speaks English fluently and exercises* an indescribable charm by her refined manners, intelligent eyes and amiable smile. The Comtn de Puris has two younger children— Princess Louise, who, being only four years old, do»>s not appear at mealtime and is doated on by all, and the lastcomer, a boy of two, said to very robust. As I was about to leave ray entertainers the young Due d'Orleans came up and, turning his penetrating glance towards me, said: M. de Frey.,- ctnet has no son, has ho?" "No MouV seigneur. You mean, no doubt, that if he had he would not have liked to bequeath to him the remembrance of his la w/tt ostracism. " J u s t s o . " / written on heavy blue paper—looked around the library with an air of curiosity and inquired in a rather shrill feminine voice, what the cause of this unusual confusion. "Don't you k n o w , " gravely asked the quill pen, which was suspended in the rack behind the ink-stand. " N o , " replied the latter. " W h a t is it?" "Where have you been?" asked the pen. "Where do you sHppose?" answered thd letter petulantly. " I have been shut up in that musty old drawer for nearly thirty years. It's a wonder I am able to breathe at all. Would you mind sprinkling a little dust in my face? This a.r is so fresh it almost suffiocates 3 ? " The pen regretted that it was unable to do so, but informed the letter that when the housemaid cleaned up the room in the morning it would doubtless be accommodated. "Under these circumstances," continued the pen, " I don't see as you are to blame. So 1 will tell you. He died last week, and—" " W h a t is that you tell m e ? " interrupted the letter. " H a s he died? Well, I thought he would live forever." "You knew him. t h e n ? " " I d U , " answered he letter, "very well. I was written to him by a young lady he met at the seaside when he was yoting and handsome. They had driven together, walked and read togeather all the summer long, and went she went away to her homo in the South and he came back here, every-, hody though they would be marrKrdT So I have heard him say repeatedly.

" H e used to press mo to his lips," continued the letter, proudly, " a n d he slept with me under his pillow for a week," " I t h i n k , " observed a letter half con cealed in a three-cornered pink envelope which was resting uncomfortably on its side by the inkstand, "that he used to care a good deal for me, too." "You!" retorted the blue letter scornfully, for even a woman's letter detests rivalry. " W h o areyou.prav? ' "I came from awoman, t o o , " replied the triangular letter nettled by the other's tone. '•Ah! indeed." " Y e s , " returned the pink letter warmly, "and she was beautiful, too. She was the sister of his college mate. They met at her home where ho spent his first vacation. They fell in love at once, and when ho went back to college sho wrote mc. I camo before you did and I know he thought^more of mo than he possibly could of any other letter." "Humph! That is what you know about it. I'll leave it to our friend, the pen " . - " W e l l , " observed the pen with judi- Isn't that unusualP" At this the pen spread its points in a smile and ruffled its plumage in good natured derision. " W e l l , " continued the letter, " I don't care what you think about it. I know it was unusual. So every one used t:> say, and I am sure if she had only lived they would have been very happy. At any rate he has always treasured me more closely than a n y other letter. I know t h a t . " "You only think you k n o w , " retorted the blue letter angrily. " W h a t have you to say?,Jl interposed the pen with rare tact, addressing the remaining letter-^a little unfashionable letter Which was lying spread open and face downward under the shadow of the pen rack. The letter made no reply. " W h o wrote y o u , " again inquired the pen. "Phillis did, replied the letter, »v^eet- Letters, by the way, have voices the same as the women who write them, . . n d ' f y o u don't believe i t . j u s t take the letter your Phillis writes, place it next your heart and listen to its sweet toned voice.

Ho is also an orator. '^Depend upon it, ladies and gentlemen," said Mr. Richards, at the close of a speech at Southend the other night,- "wo should never have heard of Mr. Herbert Gladstone if it had not been for his father." And it is actually said that Mr. Richards was unaWe for some moments to understand why the .audience roared. The fact that the audience did roar is evidence in favor of the quickness of the populace in ism-vexed isle. \ \ r T H E T R I A L S O F B R O W N . The Philosopher had a.ways envied Mr. Brown, because it seemed tQ him that Mr. Brown was a being to be envied. He is corpulent, fair of face, and owns a sweeping, tawny mustache which hundreds onvy. He also owns a handsome wife, three handsome children, and a handsome diamond phi the value of which tho Philosopher would not dare to estimate, for he is no connoisseur in precious stones, never having been lucky enough to own any precious stones, except in his green and salad days when he purchased a genuine mby ring from a peddler at the astonishing low price of half a dollar, only too scon to And out that he had been jaoft grossly deceived; for the ring was naught but a base compound of brass and stained glass. Mr. Brown's public position, anyway, independent of his private affairs, ought to bo envied. (At l*ast the- Philosopher formerly entertained that idea.) For is he not a hotel clerk! Grand Mogul behind the desk of one jrftjfci'most extensive caravansaries in H e * York City; a gentleman before whom the hell-boys shrink in servility, and the greatest men of the ago call familiarly by the first name. Naturally, then, the Philosopher was much .surprised the other evening as he sat peacefully pmoking his pipe upon a bench in Madison Square Park to have Mr. Brown suddenly appear and fling himself down beside him with a groan of dejection. "Hello, Philosopher!" he gruffly said. Tho Philosopher looked up. In surprise. Usually, in both deportment and .anguage Mr. Brown is one of the most genial and pleasant mortals imaginable. "Why, Brown," ho said, "one would think that something had happened to put you out; that is, to judge from your accents." Gloomily the Philosopher's friend lighted a choice Havana. "Something is always happening to put a person out in our business," he replied; "oftentimes have 1 thought ^Tfrat it would be far prcferable-to be a hod-carrier than to be a hotel clerk. This sounds like high treason on he part of Mr. Brown. May be he might be temporarily out of his mind. Remembering the case a hotel clerk who had but recently committed suicide, the Philosopher edged away a little from Mr. Brown. The action was noticed. Mr. Brown smiled the ghost of a •mile. "Don't be alarmed," assured he, "I ain't a-going to fertilize the landscape by blowing out my brains as poor F did, but really I get so tired, sick, aucT totally disgusted with humanity as experienced beaind tno desk of a hoteV that every night or so I take .an^hour off to/Come over here^it^down on a bench, and curse th>^Fate which did HUt make mo^a-^jovial, untrammeled cannibal ^oa^some coral island in the oceaj^f^vith no higher ambition than to or be eaten by some other cannibal. If you don't believe what I say just come over and loaf about my desk for awhile and see if what I have told you ain't so; if I don't have hard trials." ' , The Philosopher acceptediheinvitation. ^ Soon his friend was^ at his post, and soon the Philosopher at his. Tins following are true specimens of conversation between Mr. jdrown and var ous guests: "Clerk!" "Yes. sir." "Gimme a sheet of paper." "Yes. sir." "And "uvelop." "All right, sir." "And say!" - "Well, sir?" "Guess I'll send a postal after all. Gipp&e «postal card." i*Ki)reYou are. Cent, please?" -^WhariorP" "The postal card," "Well, rfl be blowed!" and the purchaaejr of the postal card, who was not a guest ef the hotel at all, but simply a leading-room ornament and front stoop statuette went away muttering curses upon the hotel's Bti£gincJ3. Jf»xt a good-natured-looking man sauntered up to the desk. ••Any letters for Bailey?" "So, sir." "J, Bailey?" "No, sir/' < "Sure?" "Yes, sir." ••Notevon a paper?" "No sir." "Quoer, ain't itP" -What, sir?" "That ihejferatn't no mail for me!" n Inquirer after mail sauntered 'away whihi Mr. Brown wiuked at the Philosopher. • 'i'jiero is a specimen." he said; "that man has not the faintest idea of rtcoivtng a letter, but he comes and inquire* rwgalarly ©wry day year in and year out If he did ever get a letter I think that he would be paralyzed with surprise." As Mr. Brown finished speaking, a gentleman with rumpled hair and ruffled temper arrived. He howie.d at Mr. Brown as if that official was in the vicinity of the North Pole instead of only a few feet away. "Say!" "Yes, sir," "I want it stopped!" "What?" "That confounded piano-playing in the room next to mine!" "Can't do it; sir." "You can't?" "No, sir." •I'd; like to know why not?" "It isn't ten o'clock yet." "What has ten o'clock got to do with it?" "The rules of the hotel allow piano playing till ten o'clock." "And you can't stop that duck next to me before ten o'clock? I ought to get an hour's sleep before then." "Sorry, sir, but I can't help it?" "On account of the rules" "Yes. Sir." "Well, blast the rules and blast the blamed fool who made them!" "Yes, sir.' The man who wanted to go to sleep early went off in a huff, but the vacanoy that'he left was soon filled. By a dyspeptic looking mortal who came to pay his bill before leaving. ••How much?" he asked, givingvhis name. "Twelve dollars, sir." ••Hey?" "Twelve dollars." "What are you giving meP" That is correct." ••Not much!" "Oh, yes sir. Three day a at four dollars a day." "Four dollars a day!" "Yes, sir." "Thought it was three." "No, sir. There's our card." "Well^l suppose I have got to pay although it is a dead skin. A dollar a day is too much for this hotel to charge." "Why, sir?" "Th« cooking ain't no good." "Sorry, sir." \The billiard tables ain't level."- ... "I'll make a note of it, sir." "And you've got a farmer's son behind the bar who can t any more make a whisky cocktail than he can maka,a Roman candle!" "We'll have to bounce him." "One thing, sure. I'll never stop here again. Good-evening." "Good evening, sir." Mr. Brown waited until the caviler was out of sight. Then he- said to the Philosopher: "Another crank," he said; "he's stopped here pfi and oft'for ten years and never goes away without making the same kick." Just here a traveler came in. He nodded to Mr. Brown. "Get my telegram?" "Yes sir." "Room-ready?" "Can't give you 35." "Get out!" "Fact, sir." "But I telegraphed day boforeyester day." "I know it, sir, but 35 has bjeetfta ken for the season." "Humph! Give m, "Can't do th "Taken ifrt^the season, too, I sup C O U N T R Y L I F E A N D W O R K . To-Morrow. pose£>- ^ ^ O h , no, just half an hour ago." "What roem can you let me have?" "How's 37?" "That confounded little cell upon the fourth floor?" "Best 1 got, sir." v "Um—well, if I wasn't so tircd^ F d go somewhere else. Give mje£my key. It's blamed funny, but as long as I have been coming-"here, I can't never got a decent room. Th.u»'"grumbling he disappeared in the recesses ot tho elevator. "That's it," sighed Mr. Brown, "nothing could persuade that fellow but that the rooms ho asked for are vacant, and that I would not let uim have one just out of spite. I tell you what, Philosopher, do you think that the life of a hotel clerk is one summery everlasting picnic ?" "No!" decidedly responded the Philosopher * • Chief Geronimo. Gen. C. Wharton, Inspector of Land Offices and Offices of Surveyors-and Territories, has arrived in Washington from Arizona where ho has been officially engaged since last July. In an interview he expressed belief, which he said was general throughout Arizona, that Chief Geronimo had taken no part in the recent outrages in that Territory, but is safely hidden in the mountains of Sonora, Mexico. "It is my belief," said theGencral, " t h a t the band which is terrorizing the whole Southwest is made up of young A bucks, at one time or anothor^eniployod by the government as-^Scouts, with possibly a few of^Gcronimo's b.and.

For another reason I do not believo Geronimo, is with them. Tho Iudinn, who mnounced himself as Geronimo to Peck, whoso wife and children were massacred near Calabasas last April, •spoko English with unusual fluency, tvliileit is well known that Geronimo can speak but a few words in "English and those brokenly."

During the season of fresh fruits, they should always form a part—and the major part—of the morning meal. If there were any hygienic reasons for the custom of eafcng it at the end rather than the beginning of the meal, we think that the .custom would not obtain so generally as it does. Man is a contrary aninal, especially in that which -ebneerns* his health; and if the rules of hygiene dictated fruit or anything islse as a first dish at the breakfast table, that, in all human probability, would be the dish with which he would wind up his meal. This we conisder one argument, a negative one, it is true, to prove that health would be better served with fruit at the beginning than the end of the meal; but there is another and a stronger one. The season of fruit is also the season when the system does not require—indeed it is better without--the grosser foods it can take at other times of the year with advantage. If it be admited, then, that the less of these unrequired foods a man takes the better, then it follows that they should come at the end of the meal if they should come at all, because there they would not be so likely to be craved, and consequently less of them would be eaten. But whether eaten at the beginning of a mea'l, fresh ripe fruit, when it can be had, is a blessing the breakfast table should never be without. Cheaper and far healthier than the many things that too often crowd it out, let it come at the end of the meal—if custom or fashion will have it so—for it is infinitely better ih^re than nowhere.—Michiqdn Horticulturist. Protection to Stacks. An immense loss in the aggregate is sustained each year from injury to hay from imperfect stacking, or from failure to provide needed cover or protection to stacks. First, a few words on the subject of stacking. The great point in buiding a stack j$ to keep tho middle so full that wlren the stack is settled the inclination will be from-the eenter to the outside, and frojarthe outside to the center. ^Xa-'such case, though the stackjnaybe well topped out, the w a t e r i n a long continued beating^raTn falling upon the outside wilppenetrate the body of the stack. ^-'The stacker's place should always be as near the center of the stack as may be, and care should be taken not to tramp the outsides as they are built up. In such case_ the middle will be built up the solidest, and though healing tho greatest weight will scttf* least. There is little trouble in stacking prairie hay, either oipland or slough, so that it, will keep. The dfticulty increases, when we come to timothy, and still more so with clover, which latter can never be made safe from injury except by a protection of some kind. Where stacking hay on the farm is a permanent business, to be continued from year to year, it is doubtless economy to build roofed haf-sheds, using telegraph-poles set in the ground for posts and a board roof, boarding tho gables and sides down four to six feet below the eaves, and leaving the rest open. But where timothy or clover is stacked in the open ground, however experienced a stacker may be employed, it is safer to top out with straw or slough hay, lejtiug such covering come well down over the shoulder of the stack, Canvas covers, though valuable to protect stacks of hay or grain while building, and fbr use in threshing, and for many other purposes on the farm, are too cxpen of sugar, the yolks of four eggs and the whites of three; beat well for ten minutes and then add one pint of milk. Set the mixture on the fire and stir in one direction until it is set. Turn into custard cups or glass dishes and serve cold. Hammer-Feed f On the fresh pastures of June the live stock should all be doing well., Work horses need substantial fare, and the less grass the better. Take care that the cows or sheep do not break through into rank clover, for they will eat enough In an hour sometimes to give tfeem bloat or hoove, a malady often quickly fatal. Keep the pigs in the orchard if possible. They grow well on the clover, pick up the blasted fruit for the grubs it contains, and stir the soil around the' trees. covers and exposed to the effects, of the weather. They are valuable and every farm should have a reasonable supply of them. First Herd of Cattle. ^ The first herd of cattle-known on the continent of Amer-ica were brought by Columbus.oa'his second voyage. From thesj^.^and from other small herds fought by later Spanish navigators, the wild cattle of South America descended. In 1553, the Portuguese took cattle and hogs to New Foundland and Nova Scotia. The Canadian cattle were introduced in 1608. In 1620 Virginia had 500 head of cattle. The most stringent laws were passed prohibiting the kuing of any domestic*animal. In New England, cattle were introduced in 1624. It is said that for a timo price was regulated by color, a red calf being cheaper than a black one because it was more likely to bo mistaken by the wolves for a deer and killed. Keclpe for Custard.

This fastis, healthy hogs on good pasture, with plenty of grass, don t root much; but when hogs get "off their feed,1' and their digestive organs are out of order, they begin to root—that is, they do the best they can to secure a change of food to bring them back to a healthy state. In the corn, hog and cattle countries of the prairie States, when a bunch of hogs begin to root, it is regarded as one of the first symptoms of coming cholera, and frequently a sale is made of them as quick as possible.

Cows should be milked by the same milker, and as quickly as possible, and good, pure water and salt placed in easy access. Cows should be kept in improving condition. Cows in failing condition have trouble in calving. A fat cow, declining in condition at time of calving, will not do as well as a poorer one. Card the cows. Help nature to get rid of the old hair covering ; it relieves them from a great amount of discomfort. A good carding cannot be substituted for more feed.

Milk must never be allowed to stand in cans after being returned to the farm, and they should be thoroughly washed in warm water ai hen scalded with water boilint hot, and thorough ly scoured with salt at least twice a week.

Peter M. Gideon, the well-known fruiterer of Excelsior. Minn., who has originated many Siberian crab seedling, says: "Perhaps I would not be far from the truth to say about one to to each 500 seedlings will produce a fair-sized apple. There is no variety without the Siberian crab in it that can stand our greatest extemes of climate —hence tho necessity of a cross. The best we have to operate with are a mass of mongrels. Our process is to cross mongrel with mongrci and a» each repetition select tho best and fr\ again, planting close together to give nature a chance to miugle." PraetteaJ Tiger Tarnlas;, "Do you mean to say, Mr. Atherton, that if 1 were to bring you to-morrow a man-eating tiger just fresh brought over from an Indian jungle, that yon would undertake to train it to leap through hoops and over whips, and to kiss you, and all the rest of it, in two mouths?" "In two months from the time that the animal was delivered to me 1 would be able to put it through the performance which you say. There is nothing which you cannot do with animals if they have got intellect and you have got patience." "But is it not frightfully dangerous?" "Dangerous? Yes, if you have not got nerve, ajd d& not know how to handle an animal; but if you have nerve and keep your eye on his, and go the right way about it, you never need fear anything. 1 would not hesitate to enter the room in which the wildest animal ever brought to this country was at large. I have again and again entered a cage in which a lion ortiger has been unchained which had never been broken in before. A wild animal that has not yet been broken for the show business never flics at you. When you enter the cage it will Bhow its teeth and growl, and perhaps strike at you with its claws but if you keep your eye upon it and take care that it does not attack you from behind you are safe. No doubt it will claw you, as these cheetahs clawed me many times, but here is a wrinkle if ever you happemto be tete-atete with a cheetah or any animals of the cat tribe. When you are clawed and you feel the animal's hooked Lalons enter your flesh don't jump back, but go forward. If you jump back the claw tears awap the flesh; whereas if you go forward the animals claws only make a prick.1' "How do you explain the fact that these ferocious, carnivora do not spring at you in a room a they would spring at you in a jungle?1' "Well, in the first case, most wild animals are bred in captivity, and as much accustomed to the sight of man as a dog ;>r a cat But take the case of a wild tiger trapped in a "jungle. Well, the tiger is ferocious chiefly when the tiger is hungry. If a roan has got a full-grown tiger and sends it home from India he is not sueh a fool as to allow the tiger to go fasting all the way. The tiger is a marketable commodity, and will fetch £150 in the market. If you have got £150 in an animal., you take care it does not want its dinner. On the contrary, you give it a^ much as it will eat in order to improve its condition so that it will fetch a better p'rlce. The consequence is by the time tne tiger has arrived in Londou from Calcutta he has got fat and lazy. He gets his meals regular, and has no disposition to make a meal off you; hence you can approach him, and if yon are patient and study him and humor him and never take your eyo off his or let your back be turned, you can do what you like with him. Animals are all alike; there is no animal so ferocious but can be overcome by kindness and patience.'" • •» Literary Notes. Mr. George P.

It is comparatively an easy task for a frothy writer to string out a column of words upon any and all subjects. His ideas may flow in one weak, washy, everlasting flood, and the command of his language may enable him to string them together like bunches of onions, and yet his paper may be but a meagre and poot concern. Indeed, the mere writing part of editing a paper is b u t * small portion of the work. The care, the time employed in selecting, is far more important, and the fact of a good editor is better shown by his selections than anything else, and that, we know1, is half the battle. But we have said, in editor ought to be estimated, his abor understood and appreciated, by he general conduct of his paper—its rone, its uniform, consistent course, iims, manltnoss, dignity, and its propriety.— Courier Journal. / »> auj-jgiiiontiiua".

She said it with a sigh so heart-burdened the stranger was touched. "John sick?" "No." The evasive tone, the look of pain in the furrowed face, were noticed bv the stylish lady as the gray head bowed upon the toil-marked hand. She wanted to hear her story; to help her. "Excuse me—John in trouble?" "No, no—I'm in trouble. Trouble my old heart never thought to see." "The train does not come for some time. Here, rest your head upon my cloak." "You are kind. If my own were so I shouldn't be in trouble to-night." "What is your trouble? Maybe I can help you." "It's hard to tell it to strangers, but my old heart is too full to keep it back. When I was left a widow with the three children, I thought it was more than I could bear; but it wasn't bad as this—" The stranger waited till she re- • covered her voice to go on. "1 had only the cottage and my willing hands. I toiled early and late all the years till John could help me. Then we kept the girls at school, John and me, They were married not long ago.

She lived in a great house with servants to wait on her; a house many times larger than the little cottage—but I soon found there wasn't room enough for me—" The tears stood in the lines of her cheeks. The ticket agent came out softly, stirred the fire, and went back. After a pause she continued: "I went to Martha's—went with a pain in my heart I never felt before. I was willing to do anything so as not to be a burden. JJut that wasn't it.

The former is onlv shielded from liability when the latter steps outside his general duty and does an act to subserve his own interest or gratify his passions. If the herder in this case had driven the .sheep upon the respondent's land to vex, annoy, and harass the respondent —had done it to indulge; in his own malevolence—the appellant would not have been liable, unless he was privy to the act; but if l e did it to advance the appellant's interest—did it to en-' able the sheep to thrive, and thereby gain an advantage to the appellant— the latter would be liable, althoughthe act was willful.

" ' I am sure it would be a first-rate plan for you both,' he said gratefully; and I promised him I would see about putting it into execntiOn at once. I have kept my word, and I am here. Will you accpjit my proposal, Magdalen Vane t Will you exchange Melina House, with all its warm-hearted hospitality and kindness, with all its attractions, for the society of a crabbed, cross" old woman, who has the evil reputation of a witch, who is popularly supposed to be as crooked in spirit H8 in body, and, because she is incapable of exciting love in others, is set down as having no love to bestow ?" Miss Mullet spoke now, as always, with a serio-comic self-mockery; but to Magdalen there seemed a weird pathos in the words. She came forward, on a sudden passionately irrateful impulse, and, hardly knowing what she said or did, flung both her arms about the poor, crooked shoulders th.U had rarely felt such a tender pressure and pressed her fresh young lips to the withered, wrinkled face. "Oh, may 11 oine ? Will you have me ?" she cried, her voice trembling with a very rapture of delight. "Oh, I shall be so happy, so content—I will work so hard to please yon—I tan read, and work, and play, and I know so many frames! Madame Gressant sail a com 'anion must play all games with the curds and chess and backgam. non. Oh, I think I can plea.se you, if you will let me try :" - The tears of earnest feeling were running down hertheeks before she-readied the end of that long speech, There were tears on Miss Muftefs large white face too: but neither the worn in nor the gi;l could have said wiih any decree of certainty from whose eyes theyfell.

We have serious business to settle. When can you come to nie *" | Magdalen <asped lor breath : this was coming to the point with a vengeance : shewas not prepared for such despatch. She had indeed told Mrs. Talbot of"her intention to return to Brussels, and that l«dy had made no objection ; but she had proposed at least to wait for Madams Gre.-saut's answer to her appeal; and now Miss Muffet, who had been watching tamed arrogantly upon the pale and hitherto unnoticed girl who stood Is the shodow of the great doorway. " I think, Miss Vane, that yon might have told the cnildren Miss Meredith was here," she said harshly. " Blanche or Kitty would have had the sense to order t*-a*. and not to keep her in the glare of the sun!" '——-^, " I Would not drink the tea, and had no business with Kitty or Blanche." Miss Meredith answered, with an evident enjoyment of the scene that tamed the rose on Flora's clear dark cheek to afli*h of vivid name. " I came here solely to see Miss Vane. George, come here ; I want to introduce you to my traveling compaion of the other day." » , Lord Ingestyre came forward with alacrity and bowed l'W before the troubled girl, thinking, as he did so, that the fair, sweet face was even fairer and sweeter in the searching sunlight than it bad seemed peeping from its picturesque green frame and 1½ by the pale, uncertain glory of the moon Flora Talbot looked at the pretty picture for a second, then turned suddenly away, and, as she did so, the slender toy «he carried as a riding-whip snapped with a sharp cra'-k from its jewelled handle and rolled to Miss Meredith's feet. The latter stooped and raised it. with a face of innoceut unconsciousness and good-natured regret. "Dear me! \\ hat an unfortunate accident! How did it happen V she asKed holding the pretty little silver head with its glittering emerald eyes gingerly between her finger and thumb.

Flora muttered some incoherent answer, and snatched the handle rudely fro n her grasp. "Misshapen little wretch!" she cried between her sharp white teeth. " H o w dare she thwart and torture me* How dare she come here only to insult us ? Fortunately, that insolent usurper will not be here-long." CHAPTER VL Just as Flora reached this pofnt in her meditations, the carriage containing Mr. and Mr-». Talbot came swiitly past the lodge gate and up the avenue.

If she could have killed her unconscious rival then and there, she would have done so without hesitation or remorse, for in that moment she realized with an assured certainty of conviction that the game on which, as it seemed to the proud, passionate girl, every hope of her life was staked, Was finally lost. Vanity itself could not misread the contempt and aversion of the young man's eyes. She broke into a sharp, painful-sounding laugh, and said, with atfe.ted levi t y - "Onr governesses suffer from an epidemic of elopement, mother, and we are for ever destined to spoil their plans.

"After Miss Vane's display of unparalleled'ingratitude, I cannot say that I have the least wish to detiuu her.

Miss Meredith answered abruptly, and with a savage scorn, a burning indignation, that seemed to transform the poor misshapen little woman and make her dwarfish figure dignified and heroic. " I have never crossed your threshold since that day, Mrs. Talbot, and I have not crossed it now—I am only waiting at your gates " "For permission to enter »" Mrs. Talbot asked, witn an uneasy smile.

"No! I did not wish to enter," said Miss Meredith indifferently now. " I hardly expected to see you at all; I came to fetch Miss Vane away; but, like a scrupulous little goose, she refused to come."

" I have learned to bear stings with equanimity—as you should know, who gave me a sharp experience. Come, my dear; since your friends are so ready to part with you, I will take you home at once !" "Ob, go by all means:" -Mrs. Talbot said sharply, in answer to Magdalen's half-friehtened look or appeal. " I never wished you to come here ! I never wish t<> t see your sly, pale face again :" "There—run and put on your bonnet :" Miss Meredith put iu, with good-natured imperativeness; and Magdalen was only too thankiul to ooey. She was gone only about ten minutes; but, ifiher ahsencejiad lengthened i u d f out into ten hours* Miss M c d i t h would have been thoroughly and placidly content. She was a generous, kind-hearted woman, capable on occasions of hecoic s*df-sacrifice, and at one time disposed to think-well of all her fellow-creature-*.

A hole was burned in the carpet of the ' cabin at the spot where the bomb wuv found, and near the spot were charred bite of wood, which seemed like the heads of burned matches.

Nothing was paid or agreed to be paid for this extra accommodation. The trunks were broken open and their contents stolen.

The offer was accepted, but subsequently A claimed the right to discharge Ji before the end of the iirst year. Held that the contract was for the full term of one year. The written agreement furnishes a clew to the real intention of the parties when it says: "If you (the appellee J give me satisfaction at the end of the lirst year, 1 will increase your salary accordingly." Why at the end of the vear rather than than at any other' time, if the contract was monthly, or only at will, as contended by the appellant? This passage of the letter taken in connection with the situation of the parties,,and the nature of the service to- be performed, would seem to^letCve no room for doubt as to what'vvas really contemplated by the contract of employment. It would not seem reasonable to suppose that it was intended that the appellee should have the right to terminate the contract at will, and thus to imperil the .interest of his best principal; and if such right was not designed to be possessed by appellee, there is no principle that would j.ustify the court in holding that such right could be exercised by the appellant with impunity,, as there is nothing in the contractor the nature of the employment to indicate such want of mutuality.—(Norton vs. Cowell, Court of Appeals of Maryland.)

Mrs, Mahone is a universal fa ori:e, and besides shining with front of diamonds on grand occasions, shines by her com elation, which is full of humor and 01 toluolity. Mrs. Mnhone always keeps a bubbling of mirth about her, and relates her own experience and describes things and people In a way quite her own. She is an uncompromising American and carried the flag triumphantly through many encounters with the insufferable British touri&t duiing her reetnt stay abioad.

The unveiling of the WebsW- Statue, At Concord, N. H., on the 17th ult., was an event of far more than mere local interest It is estimated that 30,000 people gathered to witness the ceremonies. In the State House Park, just opposite the Capitol in which Webster first began his political career, stood his statue, concealed for the time being under the folds of the American flag. The exercises were begun with the customary military parade, the troops, under the command of Brig.-Gen. Daniel M. White, Commander-in-Chief, marching with precision. Then followed the distinguished guests in carriages, among whom, beside Gov. Hill, were Hon. George D. Robinson and staff of Massachusetts. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles, William M. Evarts, John Wentworth, William E. Chandler, Gov. Samuel E. "PThgree and staff uf Vei uaonV-Gov^- Bobie, of Maine; Lieut.-Gov. 01i\er Ames, of Massachusetts; E. B. Washburne, of Illinois; Gen. E. G. Graham, U. S. A.; ex-United States Senator Patterson and Senator Mitchell. After the procession had arrived at the Capitol the President of the day, George W. Nesmith, LL. D., a personal friend of Webster, delivered an address of welcome, and then Benjamin P. Cheney presented the statue to the Governor for the Statu of New Harnp. shire in the following words: Your Excellency: 1 am happy at the fulfilment of an intention which I have long cherished, of presenting to my native state a statuo of Daniel Web- -fter. I trust 4hat-it-may be received by ?rou, in behalf of the people whose p>- itical rights are intrusted to your care, as an appropriate tribute to the memory of a son of New Hampshire who as a patriot was unexcelled, and as an orator and stateman was without a peer. I now deliver to Your Excellency the conveyance of the statue to the State, executed by the trustees having- the matter in charge. He then delivered the deed to Gov. Currier. Miss Annie George, the blushing and beautiful daughter of Col. John H. George, pulled the string, the flag that had covered the statue fell, and Daniel Webster, in bronze, heroic size, gazed benignantly at the multitude that had come to do him homage. At that moment the lowering clouds let fall a shower of rain that pattered upon the monument as if to christen it. Gov. Currier accepted the gift as the official representative of the State and thanked Mr. Cheney for his generosity in giving it. Then Samuel Bartlett, D. D., LL. D., delivered an oration, reviewing the life of the illustrious orator and statesman in whose honor the celebration of the day was held. He spoke in eloquent terms of his services to the state and nation and concluded by saying: "And as long as her fountains shall gush, her lakes shall gleam, herriver3 run and her mountains rise shall the memory of Webster be fresh in his native State." Wm. C. Sheppard, of North Scitnate, Mass., a native of New Hampshire, read an ,4Ode to Daniel Webster," and the following letter from President Cleveland was read: EXECUTIVE MANSION, ) WASHINGTON, D. C , June, 12. ( Hon. Moody Currier, Governor of New Hampshire. DEAJR SIR: I regret that pressing official duties will not permit me to be present at the exercises attending the unveiling of„the'statue of Daniel Webster at Concord on Thursday next. Every occasion which does honor to this illustrious statesman is of extraordinary interest to all American citizens. since our pride in bis career and achievements is not in the least limited by partisan influeneejorby any sentiment less than national. It would be well if in the-«!apital of every state there stood-aTstatue, such as Coneord boastsy-which should not only prompt Jkememory of a man, but which should also keep alive through the coming centuries the love and veneration of the American people for true American greatness. Yours very truly, GROVER CLEVELAND. Good-Bye, Old Body." In one of the hospital stories of the late war there is a mained soldier's touching apostrophe, beginning "Goodbye, old arm." He had just lost his right arm by amputation, and saw it lying on the table where the surgeons had left it. But ft far rarer and' more wonderful experience is the consciousness of being separated from one's whole body, and saying good-bye to it. The strange phenomena, realized in ttftnoe, has been explained not as mere illusion but an actual "extromission" of the soul, and the only hint we have of its sensation at its leaving the body. Dr. Leland, who recently died in Georgia, was a great sufferer of asthma, and to all appearances died several times before final dissolution took place. On more than one occasion his family made preparations for his funeral, ami-aday or two before his actual death he told a remarkable story of how he witnessed the arrangements. "Unable to lie down, I passed through all my sickness in^n easychair. My body died several times. I, that is. my spirit, would go away from it, and standing in an opposite corner of the room would look back at the flesh and blood in the chair and wonder how 1 was ever induced to pass so many years in its company. 'Poor old body,' I thought, 'your troubles are nearly over. They will soon put you away under the ground where you will beat rest forever.' "1 saw mv family gather about my old frame as it leaned buck, dead, in the chair, and it gave mo pain to see them weep. Then I would feel something pulling me toward my body again; I could uot resist it; I was powerless; and in a moment I had taken possession of it. Then there was an instant qf pain, and 1 opened my eyes and breathed. Each time this was repeated I was more and more reluctant to return to my body."— Chicavo I'ribune. MRS, WM. c. WHITNEY. For years before William C. Whit ney was made Secretary of the Navy his wife was known in the social circle in Washington, and when her fath er, Henry B. Payne, was elected to the Senate from Ohio she became still more prominent. It is said that Mr. Whitney owes all his good fortune te his connection with the Paynes, audsc highly did Mr-^-Eayne regard him that when Whitney asked for the hand of his daughter in marriage he was not only willing but anxious for the union. Mrs. Whitney, born ia affluence, educated by the best masters, and from her birth moving in the best of society, would be a social factor anywhere, but in Washington she is a leader. Their home, though giving every evidence oi great wealth, is furnished with that good taste which education alone can give. — — » •» Dressing the Baby, When the child is old enough to discard long clothes and to be put into "frocks,11 then is the time that no end of mischief is done by attempting to make our little pets look "smart." This is a very serious mistake indeed. Nothing can look prettier or be more beautiful and comfortable for a child than to dress it in little frocks made of soft, fine wollen material, such as cashmere or twilled flannel. They should bs cut high, or fairly so, at the neck, and have sleeves fairly down to the elbow. It is a most dangerous thing to expose the chest«nd armpits of a baby, and many people do by. having low-necked and short-sleeved dresses, sometimes even making matters worse by tying the sleeves (the.'little there is of them) up at the shoulder with bits of ribbon. Those who indulge in these foolish fancies very often live to regrettt. Besides injuring the health of a child by overdressing it, its temper is very apt to get spoiled as well, for no baby can bear being turned and twisted this way and that while its little adornments are being/ fastened on without becoming cross and ill-natured. A sash is quite allowable, as it in no way interferes with the baby's comfort; but anything more than that should be looked upon as worse than useless. R O S E £ .

Cleveland was the youngest of nine children born to Richard and Elizabeth Cleveland, at Fayetville, N. Y., from whence her parents removed to Clinton, when she was a little girl, and later in 1&">«3, to Holland Patent, where her father took charge of the Presbyterian church. He died in that year leaving Rose au orphan at tne age of 7. After careful preparation by her mother, Rose was sent to Houghton Seminary, where she proved a brilliant pupil graduating with the highest honors. "Original People" was the theme of her graduating essay which her audience declared' to be a most happy effort, Miss Rose then became ,a teacher in the Houghton Seminary, when, after remaining in that position two years, she went to Lafayette, Iud., as principal of the Collegiate Institution in that town. ~ ~~ She afterwards taught in Pennsylvania at a private school for a short time and then, conceived the idea of lecturing before classes and proposed to the principal of Stoughton Seminary to mako a beginning there. The latter entering heartily into the arrangement, Miss Cleveland wrote a course of historical lectures which she delivered that season. As she devoted herself to her aged mother, she was unable to leave Holland Patent to pursue her work continuously until after that lady's death, in the summer of 1882. After this event her brothers and sisters naturally expected that she would make her home with one of them, but being of an independent nature and self reliant, she preferred to remain in the old home, where she .continued to live when not far away lecturing until she assumed the position of mistress at the White House. In person Miss Cleveland is of medium stature and build, with a shapely and highly intellectual face— good looking but not pretty. She comes of generations of Presbyterian ministers. All the traditions of the parsonage center about her past. Her eldest brother is a minister, and her eldest sister is a missionary in Ceylon. Her brother-in-law is a minister, and her near kinsmen in several instances are preachers. She is an orthodox Christian, believing, with child-like tenacity, in the instructions she received at her mother's knee. Hei efforts in the cause of temperance are well known. ^ * - • * "Papa, why do women use yeast in making breadP" "To make it rise, my son.'1 "But why do they want to make it rise, papa!"

Then came some farmers with an alarm one day. They said it was rumored that the enemy were advancing in our direction, from over Hyde's prairie. The result was a sharp stir among us, and general consternation. It was a rude awakening from our pleasant trance. The rumor was but a rumor—nothing definite about it; so, in the confusion, we did not know which way to retreat. Lyman was for not retreating at all, in these uncertain circumstances; but he found that if he tried to ' maintain that attitude he would fare badly, for the command were in no humor to put up witn insubordination. So he yielded the point and called a council of war—to consist of himself and the three other officers; but the privates made such a fuss about being left out, that we had to allow them to remain, for they were already present, and doing the most of the talking too. The question was, which way to retreat but all were so flurried that nobody seemed to have even a guess to offer, except Lyman. He explained in a few calm words, that inasmuch as the enemy were approaching from over Hyde's prairie, our coOTse was simple: all we had to do was not to retreat toward him; any other direction would answer our needs perfectly. Everybody saw in a moment how true this was, and how wise; so Lyman got a great many compliments. It was now decided that we should fall back on Mason's farm. It was after dark by this time, and as we could not know how soon the ene^ my might arrive, it did not seem best to try to take the horses and things with us; so we only took the guns and ammunition, and started at once. The route was very rough and hilly and rocky, and presently the night grew very black and the rain began to fall; so we had la troublesome time of it, struggling and stumbling along in the dark; and some person soon slipped and fell, and then the next person behind stumbled over him and fell, and so did the rest, one after the other; and then Bowers came with the keg of powder in his arms, while the command were all mixed together, arms and legs, on the muddy slope; and so he fell, of course, with the keg, and this started the whole detachment down the hill in a body, and they landed in the brook at the bottom in a pile, and each that was undermost pulling the hair and scratching and biting those that were on top of him; and those that were being scratched and bitten scratching and biting the rest in their turu, and all saying they would die before they would ever go to war again if they ever got out of this brook this time, and the invader might rot for all they cared, and the country along with him—and all such talk as that, which was dismal to hear and take part iu, in such smothered, low voices, and such a grisly dark place and so wet, and the enemy may be coming any moment. The keg of powder was lost, and the guns too ; so the growling and complaining continued straight along whilst the brigade pawed around the pasty hillside and slopped around in the brook hunting for these things ; consequently we lost considerable time in this; and then we heard a sound, and held our breath and listened, and it seemed to be the enemy coming, though it could have been a cow, for it had a cough like a cow ; but we did not wait, but left a couple of guns behind and struck out for Mason s again as briskly as we could scramble in tho dark. But we got' lost presently among the rugged little ravines, and wasted a deal of time finding the way again, so it was after nine when we reached Mason's stile at last; and then before we could open our mouths to-give the countersign1 several dogs came bounding over the fence, with great noise and riot, and each of them took a soldier by~th^~^raTrk-Tjf-4rt^^ begau to back away with him. We could not shoot the dogs without endangering the persons thev were attached to ; so we had to look on, helpless, at what was the most mortifying spectacle of the civil war. There was light enough, and to spare, for the Mason's now run out of the porch with candles in their hands. The old man and his son came and undid the dogs without difficulty, all but Bower's ; but they couldn't undo his dog, they didn't know his combination ; he was of the bull kind, and seemed to be set with a Yale time-lock ; but they got him loose at last with some scalding water, of which Bowers got his share and returned thnnks. Peterson Dunlap afterwards made up a tine name for this engagement, and also for the night march which preceded it, but both havo long ago faded out of memory. ^ *-«*- The Pursuit of Comfort. — Baltimore American: Tho main purpose of a summer vacation is comfort, but comfort can not be secured by several trunkfuls of new dresses and new millinery. Inordinate dressing may gratify a foolish vanity, but it will not secure physical pleasure or contentment. Of late years the best people have shown a wise determination to stop this silly display of fashion at sumnier-resorts. The butterflies of fashion may still attempt to rival the lilies of the field and the rainbows of the sky in colors and combinations of color, but the people of common sense, of culture, and of refinement dress plainly and comfortably. Wheu people go away on their annual holidays, therefore, they should take only what clothes they will need. Novices in travel are always known by the large amount of unnecessary baggage with which they burden themselves. Plain dressing has so many benefits that it is useless to mention them. Without it that free abandon, that careless, happy go-lucky feeling which evtry summer health seeker likes to experience, cannot exist. To a person dressed up like a fashion-plate, or to those who change their costumes three or four times a day—esprcially a hot day—complete happiness or comfort is out of the question. If you want to enjoy your vacation be sure not to overdress yourself. » ^ How Homes Are Trained. From an interview with a trainer; "As for »Rarey,.the most of his business was trickery done by loeusting and loading. Horses are awfully fond of locusts and carrots and they will do almost anything for them; but loading is the great trick " •What is loading?" "Loading is slipping about an ounce weight of lead down the ear of the horse. Yon slip a load, to which a small piece of string is attached, down the horse's ears, and no matter how vicious the beast may be it becomes dazed and stupid when the load plugs its ears. The horse does not understand what has happened to the world when he cannot hear well, and he becomes as docile as you could wish. When a horse is loaded you can yoke him or do any thing with him and he will not object. It is a thousand times rriore, merciful and far more effective than the horrible plan of putting a twitch upon the ear oMfpon the nostril a practice still indulged N in by some horse coupors. Leaden weights are made for the purpose. Any small weights will do, but it is better to have one made to fit." - • - • It is better to be alone in the world than bring a boy up to play the aooordebn. A T G A R F I E L D ' S T July 1st. the thirteen soldiers who have been on guard night and day at Garfield's torijb in Lake View Ceme tery at Cleveland Ohio, ever since the remains of the as sassinated President were placed there were removed.'.Wit the soldiers went a quaint little character, who for more than a year has lived where, perhaps, no other boy boy ever resided—in a graveyard for over a year, with only soldiers for companions. Here he is, little Edward Mullen. When the remains of Garfield were placed in Lake View Cemetery, a little lad having heard of his death ard burial walked all the way there from Wisconsin, earning his necessary expenses by blacking boots. Finally the little pilgrim reached tho tomb, and while he stood surveying it a visitor became interested in him, heard his story and secured him a good place on a neighboring farm, where he still resides. Then Edward Mullen found his way to Cleveland and to Lake View from a little town in New York state. One day the soldier on duty at the tomb sl£/ a barefeoted boy within tho lines and ordered him home. " I have no home." said the lad. The corporal of the guard came out, questioned the bov, was moved by his story and directed a soldier to take Edward over to the barracks. The lad, led by an armed soldier aeroas the out* lot of the lake in front of the tomb—a shorter route than the road over the bridge—naturally felt that his fate had fallen into hard hands. There was a foaming cataract at his feet, very noisy, but very harmless,and a big dog just across the wpter waiting ixrrneet-himFbuH4ie-4og~wa.s harmless^ too, and proved as good-natured as the soldiers. Buster they called kirn, and Buster and the boy were the favorites of the men in the barracks. Buster was not on a footing of familiarity with Lieut. Edwards, the commanding officer. Perhaps he communicated that fact to the boy. At any rate, Edward was terrible scared the next day when the Lieutenant approached hint and asked him what he intended to do with himself. _ _ _ "I'd like to stay here",** said the boy. "The ghosts will get yo»,M said the Lieutenant. "There are no ghosts," said the boy, and his very sensible answer se pleased the ollicer that at once Edward became his bodyguard. The Lieutenant dressed him in good clothes.sent him to school, and with great pride reports that the boy has stood at the head of his class during the entire time that he has been at school in the city. When the writer visited the eemetery the boy, having politely asked to see the drawing showing the soldiers' barracks at the background, nrgently asked that the Lieutenant's quarters might be "given a show" in the picture, 'because the Lieutenaat is my best friend," urged the lad. By way of an expression of gratitude the boy volunteered to show the corsespondent "Old Jack and the rest of 'em," and led the way to one of the numerous lakes that dot the big cemetery. At the sound of the lad's voice shrill cries and tho rush of wings were heard, and such a collection of strange water fowl as is seldom seen came to meet their especial friend. Half-wild ducks and geese flew down; =strangelooking geese, like hens afloat, came blowing down the lake, and at the lead of the prossession was old Jack,a arge and very knowing old swan, who will allow no one but the superintendent of the cemetery and Edward to approach him. -• Lest any boy should imagine that Edward has had a tine romantic time, in all respects, it may ha mentioned that he has had to take "pot luck', with the soldiers, and very few boys would relish soldiers' rations. Coffee without sugar or milk, no butter, no pie, nothiHg but meat and bread and potatoes and /plumb duff on Sundays." Said Edward: "Don't forget to mention the plumb duff and Lieut. Edwards who was good to me." With the breaking up of Ae Camp Edward will go to the military barracks in Detroit unless ^onie gentleman desiring a bright boy files satisfactory proposals with tbecommancing officer. Hiccough. The time honored remedies of water or sugar and water for baby's hiccough sometimes prove unavailing. The child will gurgle and strangle in the most approved manner after having the mixture poured dowm its throat,\ and then calmly resume the temporarily interupted eructations. Even the expedient of making the babe cry fail occasionally, to say nothing of the difficulty of producing a fit of tears without causing pain to the infant. The expedient of holding the child's nose sometimes has a happy effect, but even that fails occasionally. One^-baby whose attacks of hiccough were aUways accompanied by an absolute- serenity of demeanor never seen at other times, had an uncommonly severe paroxysm checked by the usual dose of sugar and w a t e r to whioh about three drops of vinegar had been added. The prescription had an instantaneoa -effect, snd was not attended by the choking generally considered neecyse*. ry in completing cure. \ \ \ O N O N D A G A I N D I A N S .

The law makes the purchase of land by a white from an Indian a serious affair, pmnishable with a line of $250 or with both tine or imprisonment, at the discretion of the Court. The penalty is evaded, while the spirit of the law is violated. The white man ingeniously manages to gain the land by paying a nominal yearly rental, still in defiant violation of another law which declares it '"unlawful for any person other than Indians to settle or reside upon any lands belonging to or occupied by any—tribe of Indians in this Aate." A Syracuse correspondent of the New York World has written up a few instances of the treatment of the Indiana and their land's, with some account of Indian life on the reservation. A man named Leonard Field is spokan as a shining and conspicnous example. He has leased over two hundred acres. On this he has built a house. In violation of law he has cut down the timber on the land to use in building. Then he said the house cost him $600 and charged that sum against his rent. He pays on an average $1 an acre a Sear. That is the highest price paid, •thers again manage to lease the land on a leng term at only 50 cents an acre. ~ • T\ riCAL INDIAN HUT. Is Mr. Willi*m Hill, Jr. His father. David Hill, was an Onondaga chief and the tint Indian who welcomed the white missionaries to the reservation, in spit* of the threats and opposition of the pagans. The artist has succeeded in giving an admirable likeness of Mr. Hill, who is now in his seventy-third year. Mr. Hill furnishes one of the best illustrations of the 4'heads I win tails yon lose11 policy of the whites. One of his leases stipulated that a dollar an acre should be paid a year. Mr. Hill received on an average but 80 cents. Two weeks ago his lawyer notified him^that his tenant already was practically in his debt to the extent of $3,000. The white man, in his defense, declares that it does not matter whether the Indian is well paid or not. all his money would be thrown away in dissipation, and that, therefore, it is wiser and better and and tending to prolong the Indian's life to pay only a small stipend. "He is lazy. He won't work. The land will be neglected and deteriorate into weeds and waste," explained an intelligent farmer here who works Indian land on shares. "Why, it is an act ofy kindness—of charity—for the white men to take hold of this land and turn it into something. The Indian never, will do it. He despises work. He is shiftless, improvident and idle by nature." RED JACKET'S GREAT GRAND-DAUGHTER. The several sketches that the artist made while on the reservation are ornamental, if not strictly beautiful. The one with the pail is Carrie whose grandmother was Red Jacket's favorite daughter. Carrie is a matron of 18 and has three children. She se- La Fayette Brown is one of. the most fortunate men. He is working over one hendred acres of the best Indian land on top of a productive hill to the rear of the Episcopal Mission. He leased forty acres in April, 1881, for three years from onet of the rich •quaws, and pays for this privilege $70 yearly in advance. Last year Mr. Brown had ten acres of strawberries and made money out of it. Mr. Brown ie indifferent to the law and resides on the reservation John Johnson affords another example of the enterprise of the whites. He is blind and aged, and, like those already mentioned, has his home on the reservation. Having disobeyed the law in one way he had no hesitation in breaking it in another. He surreptitiously brought cider on the reservation and passed it around among the braves and the bucks and the squaws. They say here, en passant, that it is not often that a squaw drinks, bot when she does the occasion is made memorable. Jackson and his cider toon got into difficulties. One of the braves who thought a great deal of Jackson, but decidedly more of his cider, was Mr. Jimmerson. In fact Mr, Jimmersod developed so ardent an attachment for the cider that he was often found in a helpless state^of-f-, intoxication. Jimmerson s family were forcedto interfere in the convivial relationship, and one day last week the former's daughter, "wh6 married a •ephew of Aunt Cynthe, visited Jackson and forbade the selling of any more firewater to her father. EJJJT WAT TO CHEAT THE INDIANS. How do the whites meet their rent? M a question often asked. Some, to their credit, be it said, pay regularly and full, without trick or device. Others resort to all sorts of subterfuges fc> dodge their responsibility. A barn has been built on the land, or a horse that wouldn't bring $5 anywhere is •barged up for $40 or $50 to the unfortunate Indian's account, always^ appraised by the whites. - WM. HILL, JR. One of the largest landowners * 'CARRIE.'' AN INDIAN BELLE, lected her own picturesque attitude. The next is an Indian but with the master of the house in front in the act of putting an edge on his hoe. He desisted in his work long enough for the camera to get a focus on him. A friend of the family is standing on the outside of the fence. Then we have Sara George, an Indian belle. As a rule there are not many belles on the reservation, but it is safe to assume that Sara would maintain her position were there fifty times as many. The remaining picture shows the family of Cornelius Johnson, a prosperous buck who is on his way back from town to the reservation, Cornelius was at first fiercely opposed to posing for a photograph and only relented when assured that it cost nothing. ALL-PREVAILING LICENTIOUSNESS. Are the Indians licentious? Unhappily, a visit to the reservation will mpre han justify all that has boon said or printed about them in this particular. There are two factions, If they may be so called, the good Indfan and the bad Indian—the Christian and the pagan Indian—those who go to the handsome little churches and worship devoutely under tho cara of the two good ministers of the gosple here, the Revs. Lane and Rucker, and those who still cleeve to the old pagan rites, with their sun dances, the green corn and dog dances, aad the other symbolic ana demoniac festivities that properly belong to that abandoned place called scheol. The good Indian lives up to the forms of the church. The bad Indian lives up to his own form, and a A FAMILY TRAVELING. verv bad form it is. The good Indian will be married by the minister in the church, and will cling righteonslv to all that pretains thereto. The bad Indian will be married by himself ?s frequently as the fit comes on him, and clings to nothing but his flask, which is generally not as full as he would wish it. The good Indian will see that his wife and children faithfully attend church and Sunday-school and keep j the Sabbath day. The bad Indian will f manifest interest in his squaw only so long as she can multiply her species, in order to increase the family income $100 every year. Pe is the terror of reservation. If any mischeif is afoot the bad Indian is sure to be in i t The women marry young, many of them before their fourteenth year. As a rule they are prolific, and will draw *by the time they are twenty years of age head pioney for seven or eight children. It does not follow that the same man is the father of all these children. On the contrary, it is safe to say that each child has its exclusive father. These are the women who die young, who rarely live to see their twentyfifth year. Whenever one of the worst sort tires of his wife, it matters not whether ho was married by the minister or by himself, >»<» leaves ner and takes to hinihere i seif anothei.- No. 2 may be another man's wife, but that make*'no difference *«a any of tee four persons concerned. The forsaken husband, instead of pursuing his successful rival with a tomahawk, or bringing him up in court in a suit for the alienation of his wife affections, does what to the ordinary Indian intellect is the easiest simplest and best thing, he promptly marries again. These occurrences are frequent and so matter of fact that no attention is paid to them by the Indians, the citizens, the authorities of the county, or the agent. The two missionaries have, whenever an opportunity presented itself, striven to overcome these vicious and disgraceful practices. They refuse to marry again an Indian who has deserted a wife. Mornomism as it is practiced here differs slightly from Utah Mormonism. Each buck or brave is contended to live with one wife at a time, although in tho course of a year he may have five or six of them. m i m T h e U n a n n o u n c e d Guest. Shall I give my friend, whom I have known and loved for years, asks a writer in the Christian Union, the doubtful pleasure of a surprise by suddenly ringing her door-bell and stating that I have arrived to spend a night with her, or shall I notify her of my intention before-hand, wait until her reply informs me whether or not she can conveniently receive me, and be guided in my movements by the expression of her wish in the matterP Of course, if I write, there will not be the surpnse ; I shall lose the opportunity of seeing how charmed the whole family are at my sudden appearance on the scene ; I shall also be obliged to submit to being treated a little more like company than I can reasonably expect if I obey my impulse and go unannounced. Perhaps there is enjoyment to me in making a sensation. Some people like it Let us consider the thing from the stand point, not of sentiment, but of common sense. My friend may love me devotedly. She may keep my letters tied with ribbon in a perfumed box, and regard my virtues with so amiable a complacency that, in her mind, I may deserve canonization as a saint. Still so perverse are human events, I may drop down on her when she is struggling through a campaign with the dressmaker, or weaning the baby, or training the new cook, or entertaining a friend of her husband's, who is occupying the best chamber and is specially particular about his dinner. 1 may unfortuuately step in, with my shawlstrap and umbrella, on the evening when my friend's daughter has a birthday party; and a lady of middle age is a little in the way among so many rosebuds. I may come in the midst of diphtheria; and, in that case, I shall probably have brought my little nephew or niece along with me. Or I may follow in the wake of the measles, when every one of my friends six children have been in hospital, and there is no strength left in her to so much as talk to me. Or, save the mark! it is spring, the season of house-cleaning, of aromatic paint and calcimine, and autocratic paper-hangers—the time when the voice of the plumber is heard in the land—and my unlucky gown may brush against the freshly-tinted door, while my new kid gloves leave a decided impression on the balustrade. There is absolutely no end to the malapropos situations which may present themselves in calamitious conjunction, as if on purpose, at the very day and hour when I arrange ray little surprise. » Nothing effaces the bloom from a hitherto perfect friendship as certainly as cumbering a meeting between friends with a needless embarrassment. The friendship may continue, but the fine, intangible, beautiful florescence which distinguished it, once removed can never be restored. In old times, when there were neither telephones nor telegraphs, when postal facilities were irregular, and traveling was attended with insecurity and inceritude, there was more excuse than there now is for taking the hospitality of friends and kindred for granted. Heaven forbid that we should be nig- gardly churlish, selfish.or inhospitable! ut there are periods when moat and portcullis, warder and horn, would be welcome defenses against even the most beloved friend in the world. There are times when a family longs to be by itself; crises when no outsiders can, for a moment, be anything but an alient And it is n o t ' a decorous, a courteous, nor aChristain thing to run the risk of invading another's house in such an exigence. Shall we force an unwilling hostess to reluctant greetings or write ourselves bores and intruders P Nay, verily. Dear frieud, when you and I go avisiting let us fail not to sound before us the trumpet of a sweetly-written, daintily-delicate not#; or, at'least, let us ask, somehow by the postal card, or the telephone bell, or*the abrubtly emphatic telegram, "Do you want meP May I comeP Tell me yes or no before I stir a step." Whoever shall inflict the unexpected visit, we will then be free from its odium. Brown: "I ve got an excellent plan for getting rid of bill-collectors." Green: / H a ! That so?" B: "I have.

T i m o t h y Carroll'* Fearful Buffering on t h e Moose Creek Mountain. ^ Timothy Carroll wears two artificial legs, and recently told a reporter of the Rochester Union how it came about that he lost his feet. "On the morning of Dec. 5." said he " I parted with Major McDowell at Idaho City, and started westward for Banner. He was superintendent of the Elmira Silver Mining Company, and was going to Elmira, N. Y., to pass the winter, while I had charge of the company's property at what is called the Banner district, and intended to remain in Banner all .winter. For about* five miles I travelled on horseback in company with several friends. The others hen returned with the horses and I proceded on snow shoes, the snow being about eleven feet deep on the level. I had still a long distance to go, but made rapid time on the snow shoes, which were over ten feet in length, covering about fifteen miles in this manner, when toward evening I was taken with cramps and was unable to walk a step. I was then on Moose Creek Mountain —the spot where I was taken with the cramps being about twenty miles west of Idaho City and several miles east o Banner. My feet had frozen without my noticing that they were particularly cold, until they suddenly refused to obey my will, and I became helpless— unable to stand on my feet I lay down on the snow, and to keep warm rolled to and fro. The snow sank, ana I was buried in a cavity with walls of snow several feet high, but with room in which to roll around. My only hope was to keep alive until someone would pass along the path. "For five days and nights I lay there; it is needless to say my sufferings were terrible. My provisions were about exhausted when I lay down, and on the third day I became exceedingly hungry but that was the only day when I desired food. Most of the time I was thirsty, and occasionally I allowed^ a little snow to melt in my mouth, but this seemed only to increased my thirst and I knew it would not take much snow to kill me. It seems to me that I did not sleep once during those fearful days and nights, but kept moving my body as much as possible to keep from freeeing to death. I also kept beating myself with my hands so violently that my body became black and blue over almost the entire^ surface. I think that if i had gone to sleep, there would have been no awakening. I had companions part of the time, however, but they were anything but pleasant company. Three mountain lions, about as large as full-grown Newfoundland dogs, discovered me on the fourth day and started a watch over me, evidently waiting for my death. They kept on the upper crust of siow and did not jump down in the cave in which I was. They were afraid of me, and I was able to keep them at a flistance by shouting and gestures. I was almost dead when I" discovered them. The warm breath from one of the brutes leaning down toward me awakened me from a stupor in which I was falling. I really believe that they saved my life however, for the horror excited in me at the prospect of having my body devoured by the brutes kept me "from again failing into the stupor which means death. During these days I kept my watch going and kept memoranda of what was occurring in a small book, in order that if I died my identity and my fate might be known. There seemed little hope for me, yet I determined to make a vigorous fight for life and to let those who found my remains know that I had not given up without a struggle- "It was on the fifth day that a mail carrier travelling between Idaho City and Banner once a week came along the path, and ifiy sensations at the prospect of reliefM. can't describe io you. It seemed an infinite comfort to hear a human voice other than my own, and to be assured of assistance! The mail carrier did what he could for me, and hastened to procure help, the lions then leaving me to follow him. The nextr day he returned with about a dozen men, who carried me to Idaho City, where both my legs were amputated about nine "inches below the knee." m • a* . E d u c a t i n g t h e Girl*. Proper training is the great crux of female education; for unless this most material matter is attended to, there can be no doubt that the acquisition of learning will only superinduce <nnceit, affectation, blue*3tockingism, and utter uselesness in home duties. Hence is it that these days of "higher education," as the phrase goes, so many girls are found exhibiting the unpleasant features of flippancy of manner and self-sufficiency. Their training has been neglected by their teachers, who have never taught them what the real object of education is. On the other hand, we find, too, girls of extensive and accurate information, well instructed in accomplishments, with a modest deportment, and who can readily turn their hands to household work if necessary, and such we nerceive to have been properly trained. Such girls, however, form a minority, are are sorry to say, and we conclude, therefore, that the good trainers are also a minority. The fact is, judging from what one sees around us, the "higher education" of girls, as generally understood nowadays, has for its aim the mare ability to show off in society people. No doubt tbe ambition to excel hi a laudable and very proper sentiment, but it is too plainly perceptible that nine girls out of ten who can sing or play well will do so not so much for the amusement of a company as for the display of their supposed ability. W J L _ , believe that in most schools *he d a i l y " outine of duties U carried on in machine fashion. The pupils fail to their books, their music exercises, e t c , at certain hours, and so go on day after day without any words from their teachers as to what is the great end of all their exertions for tbe acquisition of knowledge. Thus heart becomes sacrificed to intellect, and true education is confounded with the attainment of mere book learning and showy accomplishments. We are not advocating the two-pence-a-week-for-manners style of training girls, but we do think that a little more should be done for their tone of mind than is done in so many schools. Without such tone "higher education" will simply be worse than nothing, at best "splendid ignorance,*1 fitting its possessor to be neither a useful wife nor a really agreeable member of society. It is to this attempt to "educate" the intellect without training the mind—or, rather, perhaps, the neglect to unite the two courses—that we must attribute some portion of that outcry raised at intervals about the lack of girls in the upper and middle classes likely to make good wives. We are told that they can do anything but manage a household, and this—which is, unhappily, a too patent fact—is, forsooth}, laid to the door of "higher education"! We, however, do not hesitate to assign a • different cause—that alreadv indicated; and we venture respectfully also* to think that those who have the instruction and bringing up of our girls intrusted to them will do well to frequently bestow some portion of their attention on the minds as well as the intellects of those girls. —The Queen. L ^ • Ten S l e e p W a l k e r s . Philadelphia News: A gentleman was discovered at 1 o'clock in the morning in a neighbor's garden engaged in prayer, evidently under the impression that he was in church, but otherwise in a deep sleep. A young man—of whom Pertros writes—used to get -up in his sleep, climb on to his castle battlements, seat himself astride them, and then spur and whip the wall, under the impression that he was mounted upon his steed. Dr. Pritchard had a patient who was particularly fond of horse exercise and used to rise at night, find his way to the stable, saddle his horse, enjoy a gallop and finally come back, knocking at his own front door, in a somnambulistic condition. Dr. Macnish of Edinburgh gave aa account of an Irish gentleman who swam more than two miles down a river, got ashore and was subsequently discovered sleeping by the roadside altogether unconscious of the extraordinary feat he had accomplished. Moritz gives an instance of a poor and illiterate basket-maker who was unable to read or write, yet in a state of sleep-vigil he would preach fluent sermons, which were afterward recognized as having formed portions of discourses he was accustomed to hear in the parish church as a child more than forty years before. Dr. Haycock, the eminent Oxford divine, would often rise from his bed at night, give out his text and. while sound asleep, deliver an excellent sermon upon it. He was frequently Watched, but no amount of tugging, pulling or pinching ever^ucceeded m rousing him. . - Prof. Fishnell of Basel writes of a young student of Wurtemburg Collegs who used to play hide-and-seek whfla fast asleeo. His fellow students knew of his propensity, and when he began "walking" threw bolsters at him, which he always eluded jumping over bedsteads and other articles placed in his way. A young girl given to sleep talking was in the habit of imitating the violin with her lips, giving the preliminary tuning and scraping and flourishing with the utmost fidelity. It puzzled her physician a great deal until he ascertained that when an infant the girl lived in a room adjoining a tiddler, who often-performed upon the instrument within her hearing. Not more than six year* J»£O an trohappy mechanic in Edinburgh was tried* before the high court there for the murder of his own child. It was proved that he arose from his bed at night and, fast asleep, took the infant from beside its mother and dashed it furiously against the wall.

The question of the propriety, as well as of the.powers of the legislature fo prohibit the manufacture and sale of spirituous liquors to besused as a beverage, is one upon which people sincerely disagree. The ing the sale or gift as a.beverage to" any person of* known intemperate habits. There can, I think, be no sound objection, to the constitutionality of such a law, and it is believed it can be sustained. It would shut up all that class of inns and shops, which draw together the liquor-loving, the drunkard, the lawless, and the vagabond, and are the most disgraceful, and produce the mo'^t crime and misery. The following, touching upon the same subject, is from Gov. Bingham's inaugural address of Jan. 4,1855. clearly expressed will of'the majority, and allow the act to go quietly and peaceably into operation. A few, however, persisted in violation of the sale of intoxicating drinks, and their prosecution for the recovery of the penalty unposed, brought the question of its constitutionality before the Supreme Court for its decision. It is understood that the membersol'that body were equallyuividwl upon the question, 4 of them sustaining the constitutionality of the law,while4of them believed that some of its clauses were unconstitutional. This unfortunate disagreement between the members of that high tribunal, has practically nullified the law, and no effort has since be°n made to enforce its provisions. I The sale of intoxicating drinks has ] therefore_gone on, as 'unrestrained as formerly, and the hopes of those who i had relied on this measure as an effi- • cient aid in mitigating the widespread , social evils—the domestic misery — the wretjbed pauperism—the shock- ! ing crimes, and the increased taxation i which are caused by intemperance, and which are the sure results flowj ing trom it, have been totally disappointed. It is confidently believed, that a large majority of the most respectable and intelligent portion ot community are still in favor of the passage and enforcement of a ''Prohibitory Law." and that they regard such a measure as the only shield which will prtect society against the terrible calamities which the uufortunate vice of intemperance occasiono. 1 therefore reemmend such legislative action on your part BS will avoid the constitutional objections, and the adoption of such other provistons as your.1" widoin mav dictate, to enable this Beneficent measuure to go into full effect. _..

So the delicate little cripple and her bright ambitious friend lived together in apparently unbroken amity and pefect contentment, until there entered into their lives that element that sooner or later breaks up mo»t female friendship— the presence of a man. Fate drifted Arthur Tajbot, tben in the very prime of his characterless good looks, and endowed with a power of persuasion that few girls could resist, across their path—and from the day of his appearance things were neverquite as they had been at the Hall. Margaret Penrose determined almost in the first moment of their meeting that in this handsome, well-bred, wealthy young man she had found a fitting spouse. She read admiration in the large blue eyes that interpreted snch feelings very eloquently, and even while she droored her own beneath thot expressive glance, she decided when aud where the wedding should take place. "He admires me already," shethonght, exultation giving a carnation glow to her clear dark cheek, anrl throwing the glossy lone dark fringes of her lashes into high relief. "And even his people can hardly -object, remembering that I am Coistance Meredith's chief friend, and probable heiress. Yes. I • vi 11 be Arthur Talbot's wife. Even with all my advantages, I can hardly hope to do better than that." And Constance Meredith ? Well, her reelings uere harder to describe. Even to herself the unhappy girl never admitted that she had dreamed of loving the man who approached her with a dangerous synr athy, a pitying admiration that was perilous because,so obviou.ly sincere. Never until then had she dreamed that she could love—that there might throb and ache in the pour distorted ir.ime behind the mask of the white unlovely fate a true and tender woman's heart. Hut somehow she learned it then— learned with a shuddering scorn for her own weakness, that the sound of Arthur's voice and siep. the touch of his haul, the gent'e kindness of his eyes, could make her blush and grow pale by turn*, tremble and falter in her speech, almost—almost, the girl thought, with a wild smile contorting her pale lips and a gieat anguish of shame and horror in her heart—almost as though she were like other women, free to love aud to be loved, not a creature branded ami cursed of Heaven from her birth. One thing redeemed her folly even in the hard judgment of her own condemning thoughts. She knew from the very lirst that she was mad. from first to la-t not the faintest ray ot hop.- lightened the TiTkness of her sky. It was a real reliet iii-r when Margaret's hopes were crowned with success, wlipn, with c.ys that were radiunt rather with triumph than the light ot happy love, the girl told her that she and Arthur Talbot were engaged. The l)old black eyes never wandered from the while pin lied face; they 6aw the si d ten quiver, and then the loo!; of ctuck relief "Tii'iiik Heaven !'' Constance cried below her breath, and the bride-elect thought that a thanksgiving could on occasion bear a strong family resemblance to a wail ot agony, but wi-ely kept the thought to herself, and only said, in a soft, reproachful tone— " Are you so glad to lose nip f lien *" " T o lose you'"—.Miss Meredith raided her dun eyes as thoegii s'te hanilv understood the question, then went oil hurriedly, but with a curious jar in her voice— " t o lose you ! No. I am glad that, you are happy, for yon will be happy. .Margaret, since Anhur Talbot loves you." "Well, yes, he certainly does thai,'' the other answered, with a gay romhieut laugh that was more con>cio"sly erne! than Constance Meredith cotil I ea»ih-have' been brought to believe;." but love, is not everything, imr even the prime factor lu such a match as this." •• Is it not :-" the other asked wistfully. *• Do you not love him V i Again Margaret Penrose laughed aud shrugged her supple shoulders wi.hg.uy scorn tor the suggested doubt. "Of course I love him. Connie. 1« he not an ideal lover, and am I any wis T than the rest of my sex * 0\), no. my dear, it is not romantic, but ptinf.illy prosaic, and I foresee complications? Arthur is not only gallant and nan isome and young ; he is also r.ch, and >o are his people, and I, alas am the ' pennile-s lass,' without even the ' li^ig pedigree' that might make poverty picturesque. Constance listened to the half-mocking words, watched the brilliant changing face that was, she thought, transfigured by happy ove.nnd • er O'.vu color catne. and went, as she thought, with a gene ous glow of exultation, that she could make the rough path smooth to the feet of h*r unconscious rival and »h"e man who all nnkuowin ly' had won her love. The conviction-almost eased the dull ache at her heart, and gave back her old serenity, as sbe^aid gently and kindly— " Do not let that thought' trouble your happiness, Mad£e. I hardly think the Talbots will forget how much I can do for my chosen friend. And now go back to your lover. No, 1 will not seo him now—this evening, perhaps; but my heuil aches now."

I u t I forget—yon do not know smile—a smile that distorted the handsome face so strangely that even Arthur Tulbot, infatuated as he was, could hardly have admired it then. "Yonrhead aches, my dear?" she said meditatively, "Of course it is your head —nothing could by any possibility ail your heart. Well, it is better to be born lucky than rich, when the luck means snch a face as mine and the riches are balanced by such deformity as hers. And yet 1 have envied her in my time. Well, no one need envy her » i o \ y J \ \ hat^were tlioie cnrions lines I read the other day r— *' "Y't, spite of all that nature did To make her uncouth form forbid, _ _Tlus creature dared- to love.' Denr me, I must get her or Arthur to rerify the quotation." And so, with a heartless laugh she went her way. The engftgetapnt between Miss Penrose and her lover, was. thanks principally to Constance Meredith's exertions, a phenomenally short one. Whatever objection the Talbot family might have made, however coldly they might have received the penniless girl their heir ami hope had what those circumstances were." " I know that this lady,has behaved w t h unparalleled kindness to you and oar child," Arthur began, more sternly than he had ever addressed his wife before; and at'aln she broke in. "fctay, there! That she has been generous to me I am ready to admit, though ovide hnd much to do with her generosity; but for our child that is quite another matter. Baby is yours, Arthur—-reniem* Lerthat!" "Well, what of t h a t ? " her husband flaked impatiently; and she laughed again. " W h a t of lhat? Are men less vain thnn the world think them, or is some love sn insult in disguise?

The wedding took place irom the Hall on a bright sunshiny June morning, and the presents with which she loaded the handsome bride could have been no Costlier bad she indeed been her sister. Arthur Talbot's gratitude kt^w no bounds: but Margaret took it all very coolly—almost as a matter of course. '• Oh. yes, dear Constance is verv good; but I ex reeled no less:" she'remark ed, with a faint, curious smile. " W e are almost sisters, my happiness is dear to her as her own."

It proved a lucky day for the Pinckney club and some excellent v\ o>k was done by nearly all of 1 he nine. Smith and Haynes as a battery earned a good reputaion. First baseman Tremain held every ball but one with ease. Co-ste and Bennett were not slow in getting around the diamond, and the field work was good. Hackley, ot the Howell team, showed his good running qualities, while Johnson was bad draw-back. Their catcher; also could have been bettered, the two Shields are good players, but had bad luck in finding the ball.

VER the stretch of white sands of the beach, across the narrow strip of waiters dimpling in the 'sunlight, the tinkle of girlish laughter •and the drowsy hum of maidenly "gossip came to me softly as a clover blown zephyr. It was on the sands at that Lotos dreamer's retreat, Atlantic City where every one had hurried, that the winds of the sea might blow away the ashes of the city winter and the discontent of city dust. The gossiping group held half a score of high-spirited girls —pretty as all girls are born to be — and ths talk, beginning as idle gossip, soon grew earnest and almost vehement, and from my moored boat close a t h a n d i c o u l d not but hear tlie drift of the discussion. The near approach of Independence Day had tired them with patriotic ardor, and one fair vision in blus from Philadelphia was pleading with the other girls to join her in a rebellion that should henceforward give to the Fourth of July a new meaning and % new glory. Just 110 years ago the men of this country had risen against English tyranny, and now bhoald not the women of this great and glorious land also rise in their might and throw off the yoke of English custom? The very children stopped their play upon tbV tands to watch the red lips of the pretty orator and for the moment forgot their sand palaces in admiration of the childishly tierce way she talked. It takes a good deal to make a healthly child leave its play. So when the children gathered about the girlish group, I, too, begged permission to make one of the audience. And ah'w is what I learned. and there was no chaperone on the board walk this time. "Now that is the idyllic existence, that came dnfting by holding each other's hands with the careless abandon the truly Arcadian way of life," continued the cream gown following the outlandish couple with her eyes. "They like eacli other and do not care who knows it. Why should we be more conventional? But under this HAPPY COUNTRY COUPLE. false system we cannot be ourselves, so let us haste to proclaim our Declaration of Independence." and bendng over a tablet on her knee, in that cramped position that the best of women will assume wheu they want to write, she drew up a series of whereases and resolutions setting forth their manifold grievances and concluding with this climax, which really contains all that was important in the document: We, therefore, maidenly representatives of New York, Boston and Philadelphia, in converse assembled, declare that we are and of right ought to be free and independent girls; and as such we claim the right to receive addresses to walk alone, to make and unmake love, to challenge admiration, to levy ice-cream tribute, to make war upon the hearts of men, and to do all that free and independent girls should do. In witness whereof we pledge our bangs, our bangles and our best loved gowns. The ten young girls exchanged solemn kisses and the congress went up to the Mansion House to dress for dinner, leaving the revolution to work its wav. ATTENTIVE TOTS. There was to be a new revolt—a revolt of American girls against chaperones at the seaside. "More than a century ago,*' explained the pretty Philadelphian, "our fathers rebelled against the English. So now. on this 110th anniversary of our country's freedom, we mean to protest against the chaperone as an American institution. Our mothers and our grandmothers went about unguarded in this way. and shall we now be forced to do other than they? Cannot an American girl be trusted by herself? For a century they have gone about unattended, and now in this last decade -most the English custom of chaperonage Completely possess" us? No rather than that, let us fly to arms and"— "But to whose arms shall we fly?" asked the Boston member of the impromptu congress, in a tone so demure and yet so serious that no one -could accuse her of levity. "That is just the question. We stand ready, but whose arms?" The discussion might have been turned into a more interesting channel by this timely question, but the always self-possessed New York angel in a creamy gown that somehow seemed to tit just a trifle closer than any of the others, took up the thread calmly where it had been dropped. "I have a vision," she said, "a vision of what life will be when chaperones are a thing of the psat. It is a dream of moonlight evenings on the board walk, of morning strolls where the surf reaches up to catch one, of afternoon drives and lazy hours in the boats, with only the one companion near to murmur his appreciation of the new system. Like that very silly young man in Lncks^ey Hall, I have dipped into the futfyrtf far as human MOONLGIHT ON THE BOAIt rALK. eye can see, and therp*-i<^only happi ness before usif^wtTsucceed. Let us join hands^srtJw and here and agree that^fjwmthisFourth of July, henccrard and forevermore, we will cry down the tyrant chaperone and insist upon our own independence."x And inspired with this noble resolve the girls clasped arms about one another while a practical artist drew a hasty sketch of a happy country couple of school children. Later on that same evening he captured the sketch just abore this one. Il was moonlight BATHERS IN COSTUME. The next moroaing saw the beginning of this new era. Usually their mother and their aunts and cousins came down to see them bathe, but this morning tho ton revolutionists went off alone to take their morning dip. Very pretty they looked and very hrave, and the fierce way they plunged into the waves bearing back the surf even as the lamented Mrs. Partington swept hack the Atlantic Ocean, showed that tho spirit of Washington and Patrick Henry still survive in the land. And the bold way they confronted- their chaperones later on in the day, insisting that they were old enough to go bathing alone, argued ill for the future power of those dear, elderly ladies. Oh. chap-* rone beware! Your"days at Atlantic City are numbered! That same afternoon the soft lapping of the waves tempted me out to the picturesque lighthouse that speaks a bright welcome from the shore, and there too this bevy of revolutionists intruded in a body. A few brothers' of the girls came with them, but that was all. They rambled about the life-sav- < ^ > LIFE-SAVING STATION AND LIGHTHOUSE. ing station, scttiug thejjrfjnzed fellows within wild withtbetfTubdued flattery, and carryhnj^etfTto the letter the declaratic^ tJitbo independence they had d r > w n u p before. The mere feeling of independence made tho trip all the jollier, and as stolen waters seem sweetest, so there never was a lighthouse or a station half so pretty as this one: From the belle of the Mansion House, the President of this new association, I obtained permission to tell the world of the revolution just begun. In no light spirit is this radical change in the social system undertaken.

Il cannot be that cluperones know aught of the corrective effects.of that which made our youth a hollow mockery. Do young girls ever submit to the indignity that young men do? Do ehaperones know aught of spanking? Do they? And does that threaten this new Declaration of Independence? Who shall say? H o m e Study for Ulrli. Barbara Foxey, formerly a scholar of NeWham College, Cambridge, contributes a well written article upon this topic to the July number of Cassell's Family magazino. She admits the proverbial difficulty of home study, but believes that some time can be given to it and begins with the somewhat startling statement that "of the many girls who leave school intending to pursue their studies, hardly one in ten carries out her intention." She speaks to those whose domestic duties, philanthropic work, or social engagements do not deprive them of the opportunity to improve themselves. A young lady is sure she could study if she could go to college, but if that is out of the question, she should do what she may at home. There may be less reason to anticipate interruption at college while studying; "but," says the writer, "is there really no time in the day when you can have a room to yourself? And these interruptions you talk of. how many of them are the result of your own negligence?" The article is written from an English standpoint, and speaks of the University Extension Lectures, add the Institutes with lectures and classes to be found in English towns. Thejse are set forth as so many sources oi help to the homo student, "and most o£ these available aids have their counterpart in our own country. In other respects the advice given is fully as useful for many American young ladies as for the daughters of England. The closiag paragraphs are therefore given: "Hrst, as to choice. Most home students err in tating too wide a range of subjects. You cannot keep up all your scnool studies; perhaps it is hardly desirable that you should. School work is largely disciplinal^ and many of tho subjects in the ordinary " curriculum are Jittle more than mental gymnastics,"training and developing the varid'us capabilities of the mind. When childhood is over this is no longer all-important; the trained faculties may be devoted to some more useful work. "Specialization, which would be unwise and premature in the school-room is almost essential to the progress of the adult student. I think that much of the desultory character of home study is duo to a want of clear conception as to the difference between the purpose of study for the child and for the woman. "Next, as to method. 'What is worth doing at all is worth doing well.' Mathematics or music, art or anatomy, language or literature, give to it good, earnest work. Do not content yourself with mere slipshod knowledge, really conquering a difficulty or surmounting an obstacle. The distinction in thoroughness between"the standard of amateur and* professional excellence is ono which ought not to exist. And if you do not attain to the standard you have set before yourself, be sure your work will not surfer from the influence of too high an ideal. " 'Who aims the sky Shoots higher far tbau he who means a tree.' "Lastly, a word of caution. Jtbn have one difficulty which isjxre'uliarly your own; one from wjiieh^the college student is almoste^tffely free. While you live at home your home dut'es m u s t ^ m ^ r n r s t . You are bound not mejeJfto perform the actual duties asgned to you, but to respond to all the claims on your sympathy and attention which are implied in tho word 'heme.' No amount of intellectual progress can compensate for the neglect of tha simple, yet sacred duties of family' life. It is a noble ideal to be a great scholar, but it is a far nobler ono to be a helpful and loving daughter, sister or wife." For my own part, I think it well for every one to have a special study, a hobby if you will. There should bo some subjeci on which ono should be well informed, while a fair acquaintance with more general subjects is desireable. In making a study of any special subject to be sure to note down all points acquired and the place where discovered. Dr. Todd's -'Index reruni'' is useful for the student at home as well as for tho student in—collogo or theological seminary. And noting: down a fact helps one to fix it in the memory. D O B A O X G A T E Dreary and chilly, a dying ytar; yet the windows of Mrs. Oxgate's old brown farm house hung but their cheery signals behind the fringed cotton curtains,and when the kitchen-door opened, you could see the blazing logs, the tiguros coming and going, like a niinature magic-lantern. It was Dora Oxgate that oponed it, and came flitting out to the well, with a scarlet shawl over her head, and an empty pail in her hand.' As her light feet pattered over the carpet of autumn leaves in the pathway, she sang a snatch of some good old-fashioned hymn. "My goodness alive! What's that!" For, as tho words trilled from her tongue, a tall, dark tigure had risen from the low bench under the apple tree, whoso boughs overhung tho well. "Don't be alarmed," said a deep, sweet contralto, with a scornful intonation in its sound, "It's only me Dora." "Joanna Ellield." "Yes, Joanna Elfleld. What then? Have I fallen so low that 1 am no longer worthy to sit beneath the old apple tree? If so, tell me at once, and 11 quit." "You know I didn't mean that Joanna." "It's hard to tell what people mean or don't mean, now-a-days," said Joanna, picking at the fringe of her frayed rag of a shawl. "1 was tired. 1 wanted a drink of water. So I came to the old well." "Joanna," said Dora, hesitatingly, •'are you hungry?" "Hungry? No. There's a sort of craving, though, on my stomach which is next to it. I suppose." "Would you like something to eat?" "1 don't beg." "Wait a minute, Joanna." Like* an arrow Dora Oxgate sped back into the house, where her mother was just setting the teapot on tho table. Fresh baked waffles steamed on one side; hot biscuits were piled in drifts of snow on the other. For Mrs. Deacon Peabody and her daughter Comfort, were come to tea, and Mrs. Oxgate was a housekeeper to be excelled by none. "Come Dora, quick with that water," said Mrs. Oxgate, "and shut hedoor." "Mother," said Dora, speaking in a slightly embarrassed toue, "Joanna Ellield is out by the well! She is cold and hungry, and " Mrs. Oxgate's face hardened into lines of stone. Miss Comfort Peabody drew her skirts tight around her, with an involuntary movement, and Mrs. Peabody looked hard into the bowl of the tea-cup. ~ ^-^ "Then let her stay cold andiwingry. Joanna Ellield is no >*st>ciate for either you or me, Dpr-a~T She ran away from home, ajod^acted with comi strollingptey^actors—she h a s ^ u f g at low, -concerts instead oflceeping that titfe voice of hers for^tbe temple of tho Lord, and people do say that she has taken to drinking! And you expect to opftn m y rtnnr* t n s n p h m h p r ! " 'But, mama," faltered Dora, half affrighted by her own boldness, "don't you remember that He came to call, not the righteous, but sinners to repentence?" "How dare you quote the Scriptures t o m e ? " cried Mrs. Oxgate, her brow clouding darkly. 'tBring in that pail of water at once, and let us have no more discussion." Thus rebuffed Theodora Oxgate crept back again into the frosty twilight, dejected and empty-handed. "Ah," said Joanna Eldfield, "I thought how it would be. Everybody's doors are shut against me." "Is it true. Joanna?"- whispered Dora, coming close up to hef. "Is what true?" "That you drink?". "Of course it's true. You would drink if you were driven as I am. There are times when you could sell your soul for a chance to forget! And that chance is onlv to. be f o u n d j a ^ drink!" "Oh, Joanna, I atn^so^sorry for you," "Sorry! Say-tffat again, lass! People have mostly left off being sorry for nig,*' "But listen, Joanna. Won't you try to do different?" ' " I am not so bad as folks think me, except for the craving for drink. I have been nothing worse than wild and willful. Only when a girl once gets on the downhill, every man or woman thinks it a duty to give her another push!" "Then you will try to retrieve your old self?" "How can I? What is there left for me?" "Your superb voice, Johanna!" "You would have me sing myself into respectability, eh? And in the meantime I should starve." "You need not starve, Joanna. Here!" Quick as lightning she drew a small gold chain, with a gold locket shaped like a heart dangling at its end, from her neck. "Dear Joanna, take t h i s / I t is worth money. Sell it and use the money for your needs." Are you in earnest, DoraP" "Of courso I am. Hush! mother^i calling mo. I must go!" "Cod bless you for thig#*^said J o - anna, huskily. "AnjL-Dora one word more; let me kigs-you, Just once By way oi^mswer Theodora Oxgate threw her arms around the tall girl's neck and pressed her soft red lips close to the other's cold mouth. And as she did so something plashed oniier cheek a hot tear. l ^ The next minute Joanna Ellield had disappeared into tho world of shadows that were hovering overall the autumn landscape. And as she went she murmured to herself: "Some one believes in me yet! It's a strange sensation, and yet—it gives one something to live for,"after all!" * * • "Dora: Theodora! JVhy don't you answer? But no ono thinks it worth while to pay any attention to me nowa- days!" It was Mrs. Oxgate's shrill, piping voice, as, help1 ess from paralysis, she sat in her cushioned chair by the doorway. 'What is it, mama?" Dora aekec\ , coming to the door. The Oxgate farm house had drifted sadly to decay. Fences had fallen; gates hung creaking; sunny pasture lands were neglected; grass meadows had toppled over with their own weight of harvest. "The carriage with those grand peo pie that has bought Olenwood Place A gentleman dressed like tho Prince o' Wales, ^and a lady whose diamonds flashed lit to blind one. Look! the carriage is stopping! f Shure's I live, the lady's toming back, trailing her purple silk dress in the dust like it was domestic gingham." She gave her apron a**- twitch and tried to settle her scant skirts «ver her poor useless feet as the talV stately tigure swept up to the door. "This is the Oxgate place; and you are Joanna Elfield!" "Not, Joanna Elfield now, b«t Joanna Avenel," she rejoined, smiling. "Here is my husband. George, this is the friend I told you of, whose hand, ten years ago, lifted me out of darkness and set me in the right path." "Dora, 7 she added, "that »ipht was the turning point in my life. 6ee! I have your little gold chain with the heart yet. lknew then that one human creature had faith in me still, and it renewed the fountain of life within me. Dora, you were my guardian angel. God bless you for it!" People wondered much that those rich Avenels had Dora Oxgate so much with them, to say nothing of that tiresome, prosing old bore, her mother. But Mrs. Avenel was a great lady, and could, of course be excused for having her whims—one of which was always to wear a threadlike chain of gold around her neck, with a heart-shaped locket hanging from it. And Dora Oxgate, although eh.© had settled into a solitary, har<i-working old maid, knew that Jie-r"Tife bad not been in vain. ,-"" ^••" ettory of J u m b t ^Catherine Cole, ojie^Gfthe best known literary womea^of the South, tells this experience with the lamented Jambo. he worst fright I ever got in my life was from Jumbo.

And yet there, was a certain light in the dark eyes of Beatrix which the blue eyes of her cousin lacked. A certain unconscious sweetness on her red lips, for which one would look vainly on those of the fair, composed onus of lone. Different in garb, different in appearance, dittereul in training, she stood chatting at the gate as the last red Hashes of the Bettinp sun fell tenderly upon them. "You like your new neighbor, Beatrix?" lone asked, without the slightest ripple of interest in her cultivated tones, although her blue eyes turned, for the briefest possible space, to the face of the farmer's daughter, over which a faint flush flitted. 'He is so courteous, so kind and friendly," Beatrix answered; "how could we do otherwi.se? And he so handsome! I never saw so noble a face, lone.1' The fair beauty smiled as she pinned a white rosebud in her golden hair; and the smile somehow made Beatrix uncomfortable. "Handsome? Yes, in proud haughty way!" lone said, evenly; hut do not lose your heart there,, my little cousin, unless you would wear the willow; thai of Leon Vincent has not been his own for nearly three years." A<'eep scarlet mounted to the brow of Beatrix, biit instantly receded, while her brown eyes took an unusually proud light as she lifted them to the face of har cousin. "Thanks for the warning, however unnecessary." she said; "but 1 did not know when I introduced you to him last night, that Leon Vincent was not a stranger to you." The city-bred girl gave a low, musical laugh. "No," she said, quietly; you did not know, did not dream that I rejected him three years ago." "Rejected him!" in incredulous surprise but with a sudden . pallor on the pretty, girlish cheek. "Yes; you see he was only a barrister then, without any toe-amny briefs, no money to speak, of, and nobody could foresse that his uncle and cousin would both die within three years And leave him master of so much; so, because I was not willing to become the wife of a poor man, I rejected him; now things are very different." "How you must have loved him!" Beatrix exclaimed, with fine irony, "to give him up because he was poor! Was not the love of such a man as Leon Vincent worth more to you than gold?" Again, the low, slow JairghTTSoftraird sweet as a strain of music, floated forth on the evening air. "You foolishh little child!" lone said lightly. "As if the love of any man were of as much acoount as the position he can offer one. You will see these things more clearly as you grow older. But I warn you, let no hope of yours fold itself about your handsome neighbor— he is mine. ««ix'bey may take who havethe power And they may keep who can." Beatrix iaughed wickedly. I don't think I'll be found among your rivals, my fair cousin ; But I must go in ; mamma will want mo to help her. And leaving the, golden-haired citybeauty to wait for Leon VincenJt-at the gate—he was approachjng^afong the highway with careless-swinging strides, aa aha had ohser^ed—she went up the whole fervor of her learned to love Leon late—with the heart she had Vincent. A quick step on the roadway; a low. merry whistle, and the object of her thoughts stood before her, looking, with suddenly silenced lips, and a soft light in his bonny blue eyes, on the sweet face of the girl. She drew aside as he pushed the gate open, and, entering, paused at her side. "Good evening," she said, in tones made firm and clear by the sounds that came to her—the soft, sweet singing of her cousin, whom he loved, "you will And lone in the parlor," she continued, as he did not pass on; 'she has a new song to sing you to-night, 1 think she expects you.' "It will pain me very much to disappoint Miss Lawsen," the young man said, his tones slightly sarcastic, # "but I have come to-night to have an interview with you; nay," as she drew from him in surprise not unmixed with indignation; "nay my darling, you shall hear what 1 have come to say; you have avoided me long enough, and left me so completely to the tender mercies of your cousin that she must be heartilv tired of me; at least, i am tired of such treatment and want to know why you are so anxious to fly at my approach. Is it that my face is disagreeable to you, my presence a trial? Or what is it, Beatrix?

"Because"—and he took her hands in a clasp from which she could not free them—"because I want to tell you something—to tell you how dear you are to me; how it is your brown eyes that lure me here, not the blue ones of your cousin; to tell you that I want such love from you as you can give, or Income no more to the farm!

Tell me I ani not to drain the same bitter cup to-night, Beatrix. Oh, my love, say you do care for me!" "I do," came a low, soft whisper, and Rp.fttrix found herself clashed instantly in the young man's arms and held closely to his bosom. "My darling," he whispered softly; "my brown-eyed, warm-hearted darling! 1 will make you very, very happy!" "I have not been very happy of late," Beatrix said smiling up at him in the moonlight, her brown head on his breast. "Why did you seem to care so much for my cousin?

"I would not struggle for The corner of Chestnut and Thirtyeighth streets was the scene of a thrilling incident, says a Philadelphia letter. For some days past workmen have been engaged in burlding a wooden steeple on the eastern tower of St. James' Catholic Church, which stands on the southeast corner. The tower like the church building, is of marble, and rises to a height of seventy-live feet above the sidewalk, its top being circular and iifteen feet in diamter. Above this, four stwrfuprights have been put in position, in pyramid shape, reaching an additional height of thirty feet. The tops of the uprights are joinded around the base of a wooden cross, which extends fifteen feet still higher in the air. The whole fabric is a mere skeleton yet, and the fearless workmen who are building it climb about the timbers with the agility and self-possession of squirrels. This morning there was a scene enacted on the skeleton spire that thrilled the watching people with horror. A few minutes before 7 o'clock, as the workmen were approaching the church to begin their day's work, they were amazed to see a man climbing nimbly and rapidly up the crosspieces which had been nailed on the outside of one of the uprights to serve as a ladder. Ho was clad only in trowsers and shirt, his feet being bare and his head without a hat. The workmen knew in a moment that he was not one of their number. While they gathered, silent and awe-struck in the street below, the man ia the air above them had climbed to the top of the upright, and now stood with his arms about the base of the cross. The workmen, who were brave enough when they were in his position, now that they saw him there, were absolutely speechless w/ith fear. Up to this time the climber had not looked down, but now, as heitood. with his arms around the cross/ he turned his head and saw the crowds of people staring up at him. jhe sight appeared to infuriate him, for, uttering a cry that almost froze the/blood of those who heard it, he iprangup the straight stem of the cross, clinabing with frantic haste, as if trying to escape peril instead of seeking u. Just as a few men in the crowd/ regained enough self-possession to /talk coherently of some way to rescue him, the superintendent of the workmen arrived. He was the very man for the occasion, for he took in the/situation at once, and issued his orders with'°the coolness ot one accustomed to danger. By this time the madman had reached the arms of-trrccross/and was now astride them. pie below—that they intended to climb up and take him and I would pfcvent it if he would follow me into the tower, where 1 would hide him in safety. Fortunately 1 hit upon the very thing, for he fancied himself pursued by the people who would do him harm, and when Lgot him into the tower my men, who were left there for the purpose, seized him and securely tied him. He is now in the church where I shall keep him until X can send him where he belongs." It was afterwards learned that the man was Edward Ambler, of Lane and South street. RETUIIJUjjO^T—PART VT. And now, on dark and stormy nights, When howling tempestB rave, A ghostly barge rides on the deep, Unharmed by w,ind or wave; And on her deck two spectres stand, Who shriek the old refrain In weirdest coucert with the gale, •'When the Robins Nest Again." ^ t i B E A T R I X . her "nut-brown yotrng fUC6] wind haddeft a The evening light fell very tenderly on-two girlish faces, showing how very unlike^they were, yet both so very lovely. Beatrix Lane, w! locks," and fresh, which the sun and healthy color, made a^rery pretty ture, stand in ffat^the gate, her brown eyes sparitttng with life, her red lips8, sjnilrag, her dimpled hands full of golden-headed daisies. Her companion—the fair city cousin who was spending the summer at the farm—was strikingly unlike the country- bred girl to whose eyes she looked^ so very fair. From the crown of her golden-crowned head to the toe of her dainty boot, lone Lawsen was perfect in a delicate, blond way. Her hair was the purest gold, her eyes the most heavenly blue, her cheeks the daintiest rose-leaf tir* bar U M the purest crimson, her form path her^heart throbbing, her cheeks burning'. - - f l e had been amusing himself then, in the six months during which he had been her neighbor and so constant a kvitstor at the farm. And his low words—so tender and soft, that had set her foolish heart beating—they wera his way of passing, now and then, an idle hour! And all the time he was thinking of the blue eyes and goldea hair of her cousin! "I am glad she told me," she thought angrily. "I have built hopes thai shame mo now on his seeming regard; I have amused him by my credulity, my folly! But Oh, I could have loved him so! could have held his love as more than the crown of a king. Ah, how foolish I am." Yet when Leon Vincent went up the pretty walk half an hour later, accom-, panied by the fair, dainty blond, Beatrix greeted him with a smile so frankly careless, so unconstructed, that tfone would ever dream that she helor him higher than a careless friend. But she soon made an excuse to leave Him with her cousin, and did not appear/again until she met him in the hall/as she was leaving; and lone was with him, her white hand on his am,/her beautiful lips full of smiles, as/she told her cousin she would^wallj with Mr. Vin cent to the-gato Andrlso matters/continued until at ngth Beatrix ndade no excuse, but kept entirely aloof when the young man came to /the farm, leaving him wholly to lone, who seemed to claim as her/own, and even spoke of him^okbex' cousin, by his first name, in a calm-tone of proprietorship. It wss fourweeks since thai evening, when/the two grris^had stood at the gates watching the sfeUing sun, and talking of Leon Vincent; anoSUJne was 'yk iho house, trying a piece of Inusuj she had received from the city tha morning, and which she intended to sing when he came; for it was an a cepted thing that he' should cojn«^1to the farm every evening, ir* should enterlaiprlhim. The sweet^yjMctC lifted in song, reached Befctfix as she stood among her rose* at the gates, and her young 5Taa very heavy with unsatisfied veasning and wounded love; for she had received her cousin's warning too all the time, and very my wishes. 1 wanted ent." "Thank you; I am for such unwillingn en I to get love," b u t / loved you iuch against be indiftergrateful to you s to care for me. But I'm glad you had to, whether you would or not," /with a low amused laugh; "for y o u / cousin—she is veiy fair to look upon, but there is more to be desired thara a fair face,' a sweqt voice and a graceful form arrayed in^ tasteful finery. My darling, your beautiful cousin lias no moro heart than a hummingbird, and when love and gold are in the balance with her love never weigh/more than a feather.

To-day gard her as a beautiful picture—no 'more—and a tress of your brown hair is more to me than anything else on earth. Now; kiss me, my darling." As he lifted his head a moment later he half started, for a visioo of white-robed beauty stood before him, fair and dainty enough for a dream of a poet; a girl with waving, golden hair, eyes l i k e spring violets, and dainty, crimson lips, arrayed in shimmering, floating white, her cheek just now as colorless. "Ah, Miss Lawsen," he said quietly, while Beatrix drew from his embrace with a start, you are in time to offer me congratulations; I am to be your | cousin; 1 hope the idea is a pleasant one to you?" "Very pleazam, indeed," lone managed to say, in calm, measured tones," that had a hint of wavering, "and I give you my very best wishes.

How V a s the madman to be broughtf down ir/safety? That was thejjtrestion that cv/6Tj anxious watcher^asked himself. /A dozen mejugathered about the supe/intenden,trSbnie making suggestion's, others'predicting the certain failur^ ofany plan that might be adopted, abruptly silenced them all by a rord, and went on with his preparations. The superintendent was now ready to begiu his lesperate task. Throwing over his arm a longi stout rope, he called two of his men and disappeared in the door of the church. Five minutes later he appeared on the top of the tower, where the wooden structure began, but his men were not with him. The madman was still fortyfive feet above him, and the dangerous part of the rescue was now to begin "WheiTt up the cross-pieces, the people in the street below were horror-struck, and many cried out to him Come back' Lady .Randolph Churchill. A few years ago Miss Jennie Jerome, the second daughter of Leonard W. Jerome, of New York City, met Lord Kandolph Churchill at a dinner in Paris. Attracted by her_ beauty and the brilliancy of her conversation, he soon confined his attention to her. Those who sat near them stopped talking and listened to them with undisguished admiration. Miss Jerome was noted for her conversational powers, but they had never seemed to her friends as brilliant as on this occasion. Lord Randolph, however, proved a match for her. Her satire was met with sparkling repartee, and her wit and humor for once found a fair exchange. When the ladies had withdrawn, Lord Randolph turned to a friend and said enthusiastically: "That's the brightest woman I ever met," and added with the seriousness of a fatalist, "and I mean to marrv her." Singularly enough, while he was saying this Miss Jerome was making an almost identical remark concerning him to one of her sisters. . Perhaps that evening she played her favorite Chopin nocturne more tenderly and wooingly than ever; at all events, Lord Randolph was not slow in discoveriag that he had made as deep an impression on her as she had on him. Within a fortnight of their first meeting they were " engaged, and very soon afterward married. By this union Lord Randolph secured a wife whose aspiring and ambitious temperament has spurred him- on his political career, and whose income is sufficient to form a welcome addition to his small annuity. Fashion Notes. Ostrich tips are going out of favor. ^,- Prints are not as popular as last-season. ^ - --""' Poplins are now^so-flexible that they admit of draping. Sapphire blue and gray are an effecte combination. The natural flower fans are costly and perishable trifles. Birds are not seen as millinery adjuncts in humane localities. Straw cord bonnets over frames, satin-lined are favorites. The passion flower is favored among the imitations of nature.

They could see that he had tied one end of the rope around his waist, and the rest of it trailed after him as he went up. The madman did not see him until he was about half way up, but when he did he showed so many evidences, of alarm that the watchers expected every minute to see him loosen his hold and fall headlong to the ground. The rescuer now stopped and appeared to be talking to the madman. Ten minutes passed thus—ten minutes of the most terrible suspense—and then the spectators were amazed to see the lunatic, with astonishing agility, abandon his position on the arms of the cross and slide rapidly down the stem. He now stood on the top of the uprights, but there he hesitated and looked down at the man who was there to save him. The superintendent must have spoken a few edcouraging words, for the madman at once began to come down the cross pieces. As he approached the point where the superintendent awaited him, the latter came down step by step ahead of him, and in a few minutes they stood to> gether on the platform on the tqr> 6t the towei. And then there^went up from the hearts and throats of the hundreds of people below a great shout of relief, followed^by warm words of praise for-the brave George Simpson, the^stouthearted superintendent, who stf heroically risked his own life to save that of another. Fifteen mnutes later Simpson came out of the church door alone. In a few words he explained how he had induced the madman to descend from/his perilous position and follow him into the tower. "Of course," said he "1 expected to have some sortsof struggle with the man on the spire, and I tied the rope around my waist in the hope that if we should lose our hold I should be able to take a turn with the rope around the cross pieces and thus stop my fall.

King Otto of Bavaria resides, or is^, kept rather, in the-ehateau of Furstenried, about one hour's Tide from Munich. The castle is wholly isolated and situated in the heart of the forest It was a convent in the thirteenth century, and was purchased by King Louis I. The garden and park are traversed by a grand avenue shaded by elms and surrounded by a high wall. The guards and servants are stationed in little houses Patrols of honor are posted at the entrance to the castle since Otto's elevation to the throne. The King has lucid moments, and then he devotes himself mainly to reading the newspapers. But these moments are of brief duration. His majesty smokes cigarettes incessantly, and often .akes a promenade. He sometimes takes a notion to visit the Imperial family of Austria, to which, in his sane moments, he appears very devoted. He spends whole hours in picking strawberries and making them into little pyramids in the park.

Bold as she was, Margaret shrank back abashed and humbled, and Miss Meredith turned to the shocked and startled man. " B e kind enough to take your wife and child from this bouse t o - m o r r o w , " she said, with stern self-control, " a n d make her understand how vain is her ambitious dream. Her son and yours will never be master here. I would r a t h e r choose any pauper-child from the w o r k h o u s e to succeed me"—and on her face and yours I will never willingly look a g a i n . " A r t h u r Talbot had no wish and Marcaret no choice but to obey h e r ; they left the Hall the next dav. and soon the whole county knew t h a t hetween*the two sworn sifters there had come a deadly breach. Margaret, who long hoped against hope for a reconedi.ition, protested at first that it was. nothing, a mere tiff, a fanciful quarrel, and so on ; but, as the m o n t h s and years rolled by, and Miss Meredith proved inflexible, she solaced herself by setting her own version of the occurrence afloat—a t r u l y feminine revenge that made the one sweet droo in the bitter can of her disappointment. T h a t long-past scene was vividly prede n t i n the minds of both women when Magdalen Vane, very .pale and red-eyed, came bark In hat a u d jacket, and Miss Meredith-rose to go. "Gnod-by, my d e a r , " the banker said hurriedly and hastily a* the girl put her little trembling hand in his. He was heartily ashamed of hi* own weakness; but in that respect, his life was one long s h a m e — a dull consistent ache t h a t only rose spasmodic-all}7 to an acute pang. Flora turned haughtily away. Mrs. Talbot waved her bark. and. turning to Miss Meredith, said with mournful and pro- hetic dignitv— • " Y o u are hard and unforgiving, Cons t a n c e ; but yon will d o m e justice some day. and own I warned yon, when that viper turn* and sting-:-" Miss Meredith smiled with placid consent, " P e r h a p s — and nerbans ton. when this child has eriften'Hl my hard thoughts on t a u g h t me ihat h u m a n feeling is not. madness, I may, some day, f y o u ! " ci ()MT is a very pve'fv song, my your vo'ce is charming, as pure fresh ns a t h r u s h ' s ; but. for all that, want you to leave tlieruano msf now." Magdalen looked a little s u r rlscd, for Miss Meredith was usuallv insatiable in her demands for another and yet another song. B u t she rose at once from the music-stool, and went over to the wide bay-window whore Mis* Meredith .sat.

" It was at lorct a charming prettv one, bathed in the rosy sunset clow. and with its look of perplexity and innocent distress. Miss Meredith studied it in thoughful silence, then laid her hand caressingly on tlie fair bend. " L e n a , how long have you and I been together now ? " " T h r e e months." Magdalen, answered with a troubled look. " A n d in t h a t time you have been happy * " The girl's face lit. up With a grateful flush t h a t made her prettier than ever. She raised Miss Meredith's hand to her soft, tremulous lips. " S o happy—happ: er t h i n I ever was before, than I ever thought 1 could be ! " she cried, with a sort of fervent simplicity. " O h , Miss Meredith, w h a t is there iu this world t h a t I do not owe you ? " " Y o n owe me just this—truth and t r u s t , " the other replied: " a n d I do not doubt t h a t you will pay your debt. Lena, Is there any thought, any hope in your heart, t h a t you would hesitate to s; eaU out frankly and fully now to me ? '' Lower and lower drooped the pretty fair head, redder and redder burned the soft half-averted cheek, the dainty ear. and round white t h r o a t : quicker and quicker came the girl's panting breath. Miss Meredith was answered, though not in w o r d s : and the answer told her w h a t she already knew. " I see yon have a secret, Magdalen." The colder tone, the. change trom the " L e n a " t h a t Miss Meredith had chosen from the fir-1 to call her to tiie full chill dignity of her Christian name, struck the girl like a sudden blow. " N o , no, there is no secret," she cried eagerly. " I n d e e d , you are mistaken. Miss Meredith ; it is only—that you—that I—oh, indeed it is all a m i s t a k e ! " She broke down, blushing, frightened, and horribly confused by the other's stern glance. " A mistake'!" Miss Meredith repeated coldly. " I s the mistake of your m a k i n g , Magdalen, or of Lord Incestyre's ? " Slowly Magdalen' rose to her feet, a slender, shrinking figure In soft gray draperies, and stood facing her questioner with a pule, agitated face and frightened, eager eyes /that seemed to .plead pathetically -for mercy and leleas?.- k M i s s Meredith seouivd a IK tie Brtteued I Dy t h a t mute,appeal. >>Jie. pointed to une stool from which-Magdalen had risen, a n d said, with a sort of impatient gentleness— " S i t down again, child, and for goodness sake do not look as though you were ordered off for instant execution ! I am a little vexed and irritated, but not cross with you—in fact, as Mrs. Talbot and my own conscience both tell me, I have myself been grievously to blame." " Y o u ! " Magdalen echoed, in intense surprise: and Miss Meredith nodded. "Yes: I have been a careless chaperon— not a wise one. Margaret Talbot, for ex-' ample, would have foreseen the n a t u r a l consequence of throwing you and George Ingestyre together: but 1 have been blind now, as always—blind from first to last." There was a dull, dry-eyed pain in t h e queer wrinkled face, a no'te of unconscious pathos in the voice, thai went straight to the generous, grateful young ):ear: and woke anew purpose there. In the quick rush of eager p.ty. Magdalen Vane felt that she could yield life, and even the hope and love that were so much more than life, rather than deal this mncn-suilering woman another blow. " O h , there is no harm done—there is none indeed :" she cried, with eagei emphasis, and with a sob that seemed to t e a r h e r throat in passing. " L o r d Ingestyre and I are friends—no more '." Miss Meredith tire??.a long breath o! evident relief. S*'And he has never said that he admired —never hinted t h a t he loved you?" she asked, with rather cruel persistency. " Y o u n g men will do such things, Lena, even when they have n<> serious object in view. Has Lord Ingestyre been better and wiser than the rest of hi- sex?" Lena did not answer; for the moment she could not.

"Then there issornetlrng between yon, Lena; Margaret Talbot, was right. You too have deceived inc." Magdalen dried her tears and booked up quickly, a ljtth* ''ame or indignation kindling in jbt>, wi • f. n.i \ e\es.—Gentle" as she \»As. thesgul was not meek to the point of abject submission. Knowing herself to beacsolutely graieful and loyal, she wonld not accept in si.,.'nee tins undeserved rebuke. "I do not know ^ what Mrs. Talbot accuses me,'' she said proudly; " b u t there has been no deceit." " T h e n it was not true"that she met you and Lord Ingestvre in the park yesterday, walking and talking' as lovers walk and talk ?" Magdalen's color decp-med, but her clear eyes did not droop as she answered slowl y - " I did not. see Mrs. Talbot; but Lord Ingestyre and I wet* there." " A n d he was--how shall I put it ::—making love to you !" ALss Meredith cried, with tierce contempt. " A n d YOU —what answer did you give him, Lena? But I need not ask, of course ; you wore only too ready to accept him and ruin his life." She glanced sharply at Magdalen's face; b u t seeing only a proud, patient pain there, said with im'pro ient emphasis— " C a n n o t you answer, child ? We are not talking at cross-purposes, I suppose. Lord Ingestyre did as»c you to m a r r y him ?" " He did not, or I should have told you at once ; but " " But he led yon to expect the q u e s t i o n ; yon know that h e . will ask it Vwhen he comes.

" I ! How," Lena a.«ked wistfully-—' ** how could my loving him, as 1 do with my whole heart—how could t h a t do him wrong ?" " How *" Miss Meredith echoed, with scornful emphasis upon the word.

" But he cares nothing for money, nothing for the social life of which you speak.," Lena said hurriedly ; "he—h e thinks of dropping his title aud trying his for tun© in the Colonies." " And so letting the fine old title of t h e Itigestyres die out to gratify the fancy of <• a love sick boy!" Miss Meredith finished grimly. " Magdalen' Vane, do you t h i n k you are w o r t h y s u c h a sacrifice? Are you so sure that he will never reproach you with it when the love-fever passes and h e wakes to the hard realities of life?" The tears ran down the girl's pale face and her lips quivered pitifully. Misa Meredith's words w«*re barbed arrows that' went straight home and rankled in her sore and loving he^rt. She felt their force' and truth, and felt iu tiie same m o m e n t that she was the most miserable of women. Suddenly she felt Miss Meredith's armi steal round her neck, felt that her bead was gently raised, and heard the o t h e r speaking in a strangely softening tone. '• Lena, my poor child, do I seem h a r d to you ? Believe me, there is nothing b u t pitying kindness in my heart. You h a r e been like a young sister—almost like *> daughter—to me in these few m o n t h s t h a t we have been together. I h a v e learned to love you dearly, and almost for yoflr sake, to trust in h u m a n nature once more. Lena, I know you will not shake t h a t faith.

Magdalen hardly heard the last words; her whole being had been absorbed in the sharp, silent contest between her love and her conviction of w h a t was best for her lover, and as was sure to happen in t h e aweet unselfish n a t u r e , the sense of right* I id con jiieed ; the yearn lag love wa» trampled under foot. "1 —I will i;o as you wish," the girl murmured, with ii littie soMiing catch in h e r breath; and Mis> Meredith's eyes grew radiant with triumph and delight.

The cheery, almost gay confidence.of her look and tone seemed strangely cruel to Lena: but sympathy itself would perhaps have seeme'd cruel just then. S h e signified her acquiescence in a dull, a p a - thetic fashion, and then sat staring va-. c: ntly oui-at the western sky, from w h i c h almost the last bng.it ray had faded, Until Miss Meredith broke briskly in upon h e r r e \ e r i e .

While we are always wind to see o u r patients, and become acquainted with them, show them o u r institutions, a n 4 familiarize them with o u r system of treatment, yet we have not seen one person in live hundred whom we have cured. The perfect accuracy with which scientists are enabled to deduce t h e most minute particulars in their several departments, appears almost miraculous, if we view it in t h e light of the early ages. Take, for example, the electro-magnet ic telegraph, the gVeatest invention of t h e age. Is it not a marvelous degree of accuracy which enables an operator to exactly locate a fracture in a submarine cable nearly three thousand miles long? Our venerable " clerk of t h e w e a t h e r " has twvome so thoroughly familiar with the most wayward elements of nature that he can "accurately predict their'movements. He can sit in Washington and foretell what the weather will t v in Florida o r New York as well as if several hundred miles did not intervene between him and t h e places named.

To those acquainted with o u r institutions, it is hardly necessary to say that the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, with tinbranch establishment located at No. 3 New Oxford Street, London, England, have, for many years, enjoyed t h e distinction of being the most largely patronized and widely celebrated institutions nf the world for t h e treatment and cure of those affections which arise from youthful indiscretions and pernicious, solitary practice s. We, many years ago, established a special Department for t h e treatment of these diseases, under t h e management of some o t the most skillful physicians and surgeons on o u r Staff, in orde, that all who apply to us might receive all t h e advantages of a f>:i* Council of the most experienced specialists. We offer no apology for devoting so mueb attention to this neglected class of diseases, believing no condition of humanity is tot) wretched t o merit t h e sympathy and lust services of t h e noble profession to which we lx-long. Many w h o suffer from these terrible diseases contract them innocently. Why a n y medical man. inti nt on doing good a n d alleviating suffering, should shun such cases, we cannot imagine. Why a n y one should consider it otherwiset h a n most honorable to cure t h e worst cases of these diseases, we cannot u n d e r s t a n d ; and yet of all the other maladies which afflict mankind there is probably none about which physician.-*, in general practice know so little.

"But I have other reasons to urge." "None that can avail." "At'least hear them." "Yes, if I am forced, but my answer is already given." "You may reconsider it It was uo longer in the persuasive tone of tho lover that Adrain Hermou spoke. His last utterance had a touch of sternness "in it. The changed intonation had not passed unnoticed—a fact sufficiently evinced by the look, half scornful, half inquiring, which Alice Hermonfafn^a"upoTl"ttiir"speakerr- "Your father," Adrian continued, "left his affairs in a condition so perplexed and intricate, that when, at your request, I undertook their settlement, it was some time before their exact posture could be ascerTained. A thorough examination, I am sorry to say, proves his estate largely insolvent. Our long absent uncle, you are aware; ignorant, it seems, of your ancUrty existence, bequeathed hisjmthense fortune to his two brpjthefs, your father and mine—the^whole in the event of the death^efeither to go to the survivor.^ JThe fact that your father died one tay before our uncle, and that mine survived him several months, legally entitles me to the whole of an inhcritance, half of which had else been yours." .' , "The conclusion' of the whole," said Alice, with a curl of her beautiful lip, "being that the accident of a day has made mo penniless and you rich." "Under the circumstancss I had hoped," Adrian resumed, "that my^ offer " , . „ "Let me be sure I understand it, nterrupted Alice; "is it to purchase served with a couple of writs, one a citation, requiring him forthwith to file nia accounts as administrator of Alice's father; the other a summons in an action brougnt to recover Alice's portion of her uncle's estate, The last, everbody said was hopeless, the death of Alice's father one day Deforo that of her uncle settling the question. It was quite unusual for Mr. Barker's zeal to outrun his judgement, but it secined to have done so in tho present case. However, the little lawyer went about his business in his accustomed way keeping" his own counsel and seeking uo one's. Considerable time elapsed before the case could be brought to a hearing. Andrew Hermou, the rich uncle, after many years merchandising in the East Indies, had at last embarked for home aud died at sea. His death was reported to have,, occurred on the 25th of December, 18—, that of Alicefs father having happened on the 24th of the sam month. Captain Harris, the Come mander of tho vessel, WSSTTOW absenton another voyage, and his testimony being deemed material by both parties, ft was necessary to await his return. He came at last and the case was brought on. By" several witnesses Mr. Barker proved the death of Alice's father to have taken place on the 24th of December at 8 o'clock in the evening. Captain Harris was then called. After a few preliminary questions, ho was asked to stale the*pfecise time of Andrew Hermon's death. "Exactly four minutes before six o'clock on" the morning of the 25th of December," was the answer. "Are you quite certain of that?"' Mr. Barker continued. "Quite;it is entered on the log-book. Mr. Barker paused a moment. "Is there any necessity tor proceeding Brother Barker?" interposed the opposite counsel, with a winning smile "You have quite made out our case. The plaintiff's father having died on the 24th, an.l the testator on the 25th, it is plain, by the terms of the will, that the whole estate went to the defendant's late father as survivor." "If you please, Brother Tompkins," Mr. Barker replied, with killing politeness, and the self-possessed air of a man who, if beaten, don't know it yet, "I have not quite finished with the witness." "Be good enough, Captain Harris, to tell us where your vessel was at the time of Andrew Hermon's death?" "In latitude—degrees aud—minutes south, and longitude—degrees and— minutes cast." "When it was 8 o'clock on the evening of the 24th of December here, wh "wasTfrOX1nie Iherc r "Four minutes of eight j)n-tnc morn ins: of the 25th, the di ~" E^nce of longitude being 179 jiegrees. S«UhapKno plaintiff's father died here>j&4V-8o clo2k p. m. on the 24th and Andrew Hermon died thero at four minujtes before six on tho morning of 25th, the former survived tho latter just two bovirs." With which summing up Mr. Barker sat down, ns calm as if hadn't just been gaining the most important cause of his life. The same cool, clear head soon brought order out of the confusion in which Adrain Hermon had sought to involve the afl'airs of Alice's father, and made it quite manifest that the latter had •neither broken trust left his daughter destitute. nor m • m the hand Phave refused to give?" "The offensive words are your own," said Adrian. "And their meaning yours," Alice retorted. r , , "You at least prize your father s reputation," he said. "More dearly than life! ' Alice answered. "It is with you to shield or blast it! The girl's cheek blanched, and there was something painful in her startled look that besought more earnestly tban*words an explanation of her cousin's language. "A large sum . your father held in trust," Adrian went ,on, "is uot forthcoming. and disgrace must attach to --"" his memorv unless you choose to avert it. The means are happily within jour power. Accept .my offer, and from my good fortune tne default shall be made goooV and none need ever know it." -The momentary pallor that had overspread the face o"f Alice, gave place to a deep ilush, "Your statement" she rejoined, "that my father died poor, I could have readily believed, knowing his generous nature, and how little likely he was to,have hoarded wealth. But the imputation of dishonesty I know to be as false as the heart that conceived it and the tongue that gave it utterance! Go! but go with this assurance—a speedy and thorough investigation by those whom I and others can trust shall place it beyond your power again to malign the virtues of the dead.' True to her promise, Alice lost no time in seeking the council and assistance of an old and tried friend of her father, who was besides a shrewd and able lawyer. Mr. Barker had a quick eye* for roguery, and was very prompt with his dealing with it. —Within « week afteter-tae first -rater view with Alice, Adrian Hermon was The Wife's Vow of Obedience. George William Curtis, in Harpers -Magaaiae-fGr-AuguBt says:—The press, that vigilant sentinel upon the watchtower of civil and religious liberty, like Sister Anne upon blue-beard's turret, descried something.wrong in the ceremony of the President's wedding. It whispered audibly that the Reverend Doctor omitted from the service tho word "obey," and that the lady therefore became a wife without the vow of obedience to a husband. This incident seriously -di tain newspapers whose course for many years has shown their profoundconcern for the interests of religion, and many excellent persons also havo been anxious to know^whether, under such circumstanpes-,'the wife has been TU .Tried properly. Indeed, there are said to-be some young women who suppose that the vow ot obedience is the essential marriage vow—a view in which they are resolutely supported by many very young gentlemen who are not very long .emancipated from maternal control. It may allay these tender apprehensions to know not. only that the word obey is often omitted from the mar- England were a shame to civilization and humanity. The ladies, therefore, who suppose that these laws and traditions and ceremonial vows rest upon a divine sanction, and who are consequently solicitous to wear the yoke of unquestioning subjugation, not of choice, but as a religious duty, need bend no longer for that roasou. If thev prefer to obey, indeed, thev are not restrained by any religious obligation, nor if they prefer to commauit. "But," interposes at this point the youthful casuist of the other sex, "surely exigencies of difference arise when there must bo a decisive will, ami, pi course, that will must bo tho man's.'" Yes; su men have generally said, aud ihoir views have generally prevailed. But tho general prevalence of ignorance was no' a soum1 argument against the Introduction of general education, and in ihc republic of reason aud matrimony the general assent of husbands cannot conclude the rights of wives. In a matrimonial difference some one must decide. Granted; and what should determine the decision? Plainly, the right of the case. Now a wife is quite as likelv—upon the whole, indeed, more likely--to be right upon a family question thau the husband. Still says the casuist, he must decide, becauso he is the bread-winner, aud because he is the stronger aud can enforce his will. Very well; then the mason disappears when the woman is the bread-winner, aud in that case it is plainly not as a man that the husband must decide, which ends the merely masculine pretension. The other reason, that can enforce his will, is applicable to the control of a brute or a slave, but is it applicable to that of a Wife? Moreover, when we speak of right, we do uot mean brute force. ihatouo man may be able to kuoCic another man down, or to beat a woman, establishes no right to do so. The casuist must look futher if ho would justify himself. In the matrimonial republic, indeed as in all other communities, undoubtedly force will decide many a difference. It is notorious that the English law—made bv men, and interpreted by men—authorized the husband to correct the wife with a stick of reasonable thickness, and upon appeal the judge, who was presumably a husband, decided that reasonable thickness was about the thickness of a thumb. Tho British aisuage also permitted tho sale of the wife by tho husband, a logical: deduction from the tho theory cijUtie right of the husband as foomued in strength of muscle. If-fne wife be bound to obey thjp-kusband, certainly the husbandis^authorized to enforce obediemseVand if the contumacy of the wjfe-t5pmpels resort to the stick of a nimb's thickness, it may be very painful to Romeo to adjust his relations with Juliet in that emphatic manner, but who can deny the right of the husband to compel'the obedience which he has the right to demand? Does Romeo s u p p l e , perhaps, that if his bride promises to obey her promise will make tho stick unnecessary?. The answer lo his supposition is printed every day in tho police reports. Romeo, if he be" a sensible man—and for such men only is this debate open^ cd—will see that all differences between Juliet and himself will be determined, uot by her vow of obedience or submission to his will, however unwise or dangerous or criminal his will may be, but by their common good sense, lu the" happy realm of conjugal affection the stronger nature will rule, however mild and lerninine ts expression may be, as the moon, "sweet regent of the sky," sways the tho ocean tides. However that gentle jent may have vowed to follow the whims of tho restless sea, and however tho raging sea may roar and toss, her vows will be resistlcssly forsworn, and all his fury vain, as she moves softly on, and he up every, cove and bay runs obediently after*, As the eternal and divine laws assj&rt' themselves in the happy realm, -Romeo the husband will perceive that marriage vows are not promises to be enforced, but lovers' protestations to be fulfilled.

Daleham Gardens, Hampstead, in the suburbs of London, where Mr. Beecher is stopping, at the residence of Rev. Dr. Joseph Parker, is officially a street, says a very recent London letter, though it bears quite as little resemblance to the average street of an American city as it does to a sandy trail in the Desert of Sahara. It is a poem in city thoroughfares and habitations. Tho tidiest little bits of houses and tho most charmingly irregular structures of large build stand back among tho trees, ivy climbing over them here and there, and beautiful stretching away from them. Trim hedge-rows usually take the place of the grim iron rails that fence off Fifth avenue's continuity of brown-stone sameness, and low enough they are to tempt tho stroller-by to slop and admire the tlowers. Aud tho strcets--well, it would have spoiled the rurality of it to have dubbed them streets, so they are known as terrace, garden or lane. in one of the oleasautest of that part of Hamnstead's refuges from the whirl of London lives Dr. Parker. He is the "oldest inhabitant" in his neighborhood, having built his house there when there were no others roundabout, three whole years ago! Now the place contains—1 don't knowhow many people, but Well up in the thousands. That's tho way Loudon has spread itself over 122 square miles of land, holding live millions of people. Dr. Parker is of the Congregational faith, one of the most noted of London preachers and wonderfully prolific as a religions author. This about the way ho rattled on as he lolled OH his easychair: . / « <^i "Tho advent of Mi', aud Mrs. Beech cr into my uonso has constituted an occasim which we shall uot soon forget. 1 feel as if 1 had been living in a tumult since the very first moment Mr. Beecher crossed my threshold. I had vensured to anticipate a little quiet conversation with tho illustrious preacher but I soon found that all my anticipations were doomed to disappointment. Mr. Beecher never seems to travel without an infinito tail behind him ol telegrams, letters, reporters, interviewers, receptions, givers, curiosity mongers, beggars of all sorts, coming at all sorts of hours, until mv house has had the aspect of a kind of miscellaneous fair. I havo observed, however, that amid all tho multitudes that have followed Mr. Beecher hardly any of them have had anything to offer him, nearly everybody, on tho other hand, desiring to obtain something from him. Onlylast night, just as we were going to bed, a lady called here to ask if Mr. Beecher would not take,4he"chair for her at some meeting which she was proposing to condiicL MISS ELLEN TERRY CALLS. J | j | ."All this excitement, howevervnas been of the pleasantest description. People have oeen brought into my house who, under other circimstances, near^ other night, whea Miss Ellen Terry called, as the tenant of a quiet house, and as A dissenting minister, who is always looked down upon in England by the superior powers, I was a little startled from intrusion, but, in spite of tho dog, I find Mr. Beecher roaming all over the place and taking possession of the study, which is in the basemont of the house, the dog never giving sign that anything unusual has occurred. Tho other morning Mr. Beecher went out, say before 10 o'olock, did some shopping, went to tho Royal Academy aud looked over the pictures, drove away in a cab some four miles to lunch and talked all tho afternoon; then went to the Mansion House in tho city of London and dined with the Lord Mayor; found his way back to my house a little before midnight, and by 6 o'clock the next morning he was busy at his desk—not in any dishevelled and outworn way, a doubled up and exhausted old man, but looking as fresh as the morning. MRS. BEECHER ENJOYS THE TRIP. Mrs. Beecher is as remarkable in this way as her husband. Her strength is absolutely inexhaustible, which is the more remarkable, seeing that often she looks as if she were about to give up an active life and settle upon her couch during tho remainder of her life. Not she. indeed. She is as bright and active and energetic as any Indian that ever went out on a war dance, and at night she is^ust as clear-minded and as happy as if she had been restink all day. All this is to us poor English people simply overwhelming. 1 speak for iuy countrymen at large when I say that wo really do require a^ little sleep now and thou, and we aro not indisposed to a few hours'quietnessduring the longest days in the year. Mr. and Mrs. Beecher overthrow all this, and drive on in a triumphant career, unchecked and undismayed. •'Wonderful expectation was excited as regards Mr. Beecher's preaching. It is my peculiar joy to have had him appear-as-a preacher for the first tme in London during this visit in my pulpit. When the church was built J, was in America, and I askfcd Mr^- Beecher to come over and preaclP"£he inauguration sermon. WJieh^ however, years later, he madje-rfp^ his mind to be here and comjerited to preach in tho City Temple letters came pouring in by -every post from every direction. Four men" were at work for several days opening letters and replying to applications for ticketsof admission. Whea Sunday morning dawned thero was -a stir among the cabmen of the metropolis. One of old four-wheelers said to me: 'I hear you're going to havo a great congregation to-day,' a remark not particularly worth recording in itself, but as showing that even among the cabmen there was ah understanding that on a quiet Sunday in July there was going to be one centre of ac tivity in religious London. ENGLISH VIEW OF HIS METHODS. "A wonderful preacher is tho old' man eloquent. Everything about him preaches. I sat a little at one side and could not, therefore, see his whole face; yet I felt that the very coat upon his back was taking part in the service. When ho turned around so that I had a view of his face, 1 saw the tight in his eye and tho color in his cheek, and his fine voice, whether it was strident or whether it melted into tears, it was the voice of a man accustomed to speak to great congregations, alike in commanding and persuasive tones. His whoio speech was of lovo and he t seemed to exemplify sublime affection. Some men could talk of lovo in an unloving way, so much so that their tone would contra- 1 riage ceremony, but that many veiled ladies, in wreaths of orange llowers, insist upon that omision. in fact, to use diplomatic language, the concession of the ommission has been known to be held in many cases to b3 a preliminary sine qua non upon the part of one of the high contracting parties. The word was introduced into the ceremony by men to express and emphasize the view of men that the man is the ^head of the woman. Indeed, the" interested inquirer will find that most of the traditional theories of the relations of the sexes which are often quoted as indisputable and conclusive arguments represent merely the views of men. The laws which regulate these relations— the laws of divorce, of tho rights and the control of property, of the disposition and care of children—are the work of men, and simply express their will. imnort- T n w r n m e two lives ior \et_-~-would-ffobably—aever_looked terand for worse. But the vow toTove\ R0 !*5 1 ?", t h i s . Z a s t b e t m ^ 6 the vow to honor, how shall they be enforced when love has fled and honor is no longer possible? A vow is a form of wor<is,. a 'heart-felt purpose. But has it "a charm to stay the morningstar?" Has it the power to hold a heart to its betrayer, or honor to tho dishonored? The dowhv-bearded casuist, therefore, need not insist 'ardently that there shall be a vow of obedience as binding his Dulcinea to do what ought not to be done whether he commands it or not. But, on the other hand, the sweet regent "that shall be" need not hesitate to promise to obey, since she gladly promises to love and honor,- Obedience is of the will, but love is beyond it. She may obey when she can nolon ger love, and if she hesitates at all.Jt should be ut the promise which eludes her p^wer to fulfil.

Oh, by the during those to find that the most popular actress of the day had taken possession of a seat in my drawing-room. 1 well knew that she had not come to see me,-ami therefore I did not venture to approach the lady. But in a few minutes Mr. Beecher came to^brtng my wife and myself into herpresence, aud then wo found that in real life she was no actress at all, but just a simple, modest, genial lady, full of high spiritedness and genuine human fun. From this moment I formed quite a different estimate of the theatrical profession. The instances of kindness which she gave, as between successful actors and actors that were not successful, impress^ ed me very deeply with tho belief that Christian charity is not confined' to sects and parties. / "Mr. Beecher's own energyis simply overwhelming, and must be/6n a truly transatlantic scale. I am told that ho is seventy-three years, of age, but judging from his activity, 1 should suppose that the/figures might be transposed and that he was not more ^ ^ the by, where were you Morethan a quarter of a century ago | lour years?" ^ Mr* Gladstone sa|d the divorce laws in *'I was in jail, sur •—Phila.

Mr. Beecher astonishes me even* more in private than in public. The superabundance of his conversation, tho multitudinousness of his allusions; his interest in all public questions and concerns, his never-ceasing humor, his anecdotes, which are even surpassed by his own illustrations, all these conspire to constitute a companion such as wo can but hope to enjoy very rarely in, this world. "Many mistakes arc made about Mr Beecher. Some may think him earless, rash^Jmprudent and the like. But I "anlbountl to testify that even whenyoii think ho is not paying much attention to you ho is notiing everything that is, being sai(l, and when he makes an appointment he is faithful in keeping/it. If he were less of a genius he would be considorod more of a man of business.

THE USE OK FERTILIZERS. Different soils and different crops require the use of different fertilizers. This every farmer knows, though perhaps he does not always apply it. It is not always, however, necessary to add to the soil exactly the constituents which we expect to obtain from it in wheat, potatoes, etc. But by bringing the land to a good state of productiveness, with rotation of crops, and some judgment in selecting fertilizers, we may be sure of always securing good crops. The following good suggestions on the subject of various fertilizers are recommended to the attention of thoughtful farmers: Cf real crops are especially benefited by nitrogen and nitrogenous manures. Usually forty or eighty pounds per acre are required for full crops or largest crops. Clover is the best medium to use in charging soil with nitrogen. It is a nitrogen trap that is easily set and sure to catch. Clover may* be specially fertilized with plaster. Potash is of little value in cereal growing, and phosphoric acid not ly called for. In connection with »n, phosphoric acid and potash >th useful in small quantities. Indian corn phosphoric acid is peftoaps the best special fertilizing element. Land plaster often does good service. On some soils potash also proves valuable. •Grass"requires all the elements of plant food. Well rotted manure is perhaps the best special manure for it. lione-dust comes next. Either of these can be used at seeding, or afterward as top dressing. Clover requires'-1 nitrogen and phosphoric acid in small quantities. Potash and lime are its most valuable manures. Turnips require nitrogen and phosphoric acid, the latter in soluble form. Superphosphates are specials for the turnip crop. Margels want more nitrogen and less phosphoric acid than turnips. Potatoes are similar.to turnips in their likes, and on most soils thev need a supply of potash furnished. There is usually potash enough in our common barnyard manure for potatoes. TAKING CAUE OF THE ORCHARD.. There are few operations in farming but have both advantages and disadvantages, and this is especially true in. the treatment of orchards; no indexible rule can be laid down to suit all conditions. Trees are plants, like all other farm crops, and if the soil containing the one should'be cultivated and manured, what reason can there be for making an exception in the case of the other. It takes exactly throw out furrows with the plow. Spread well decomposed manure in the furrows, knocking the lumps apart, and throw the soil back over the manure. Harrow and roll thoroughly, mark again and set the plants at one foot apart in the rows. Nothing more is to be done, to the celery except to cultivate it thoroughly and keep it clear of weeds until the autumn, when it is to be put in trenches for bleaching. PACKING AND SHIPPING EGGS. Eggs, especially in summer, should be not only sound, but fresh laid. Stale eggs, though apparently sound, are sure to reach market in bad order, or will change so rapidly that dealers lose money on them. Always ship at once while fresh. Use strong, stiff barrels. For packing, use fine, kiln.dried cut straw or wheat chaff. Some Canadian packers use dry oat-hulls, which answer a good purpose. Never use oat or buckwheat chaff, and never use new oats, straw, or chaff, as they sweat and rot the eggs in a short time. the same plant food to build a tree and form an apple as it does to manufacture any other farm crop; and yet -many farmers expect to keep on cropping the orchard, and get the trees and fruit thrown in for nothing; they think they should not plow without plant-' ing. If the trees are further apart than th»-stalks in a corn crop it is just for the same reason that corn is set further apar,t than wheat, the difference being merely a matter of degree, and every crop should have space consistent with its root and foliage dimeiisions and—with the quantity of heat and light to be admitted from the sun. A crop of grain or grass may be grown in an orchard just on the same/ principle as radishes may be sown between rows of cabbage; if the soil is rich and clean both will flourish so long asthe cabbage leaves do noVovershadow the radish plants. •/ / GROWING CELERY. / Not many years ago celery was a / crop only to be growrrin the gardens of the wealthy where /the cost of cultivation was not tegalfded. Thanks to the market gardeners about New York the cultivation of celery has been greatly simplified/the old laborious method of planting7 ^ in trenches has been discardedv and now any one who can raise oabbages can grow celery. The dwarf x-^fjtlneties—of which there are several— ^•'•'•#•' '->4te to be preferred to the tall-growing kinds, and as each of the principal seedsmen has his favorite tested sort it is safe to follow his advice as to the variety. The important part is to secure the celery plants, and if one is not to cultivate*largely, and can readily purchase the plants, it will be the cheapest to buy from^those who grow them for sale. Of course, all can not purchase plants, and the majority must grow- them. The seeds should be sown in May or June, but plants may be' set out as late fis the first of August. m Market gardeners set their celery on • land from which an early crop of cabbages, cauliflowers, onions, etc., has been token; as the soil has been highly manured for these it remains rich enough for the celery. The soil being plowed and harrowed, it is marked off in rows three feet apart, and the plants set at every six inches in the row. After the plants are set the soil should be pressed very firmly against tne roots with the foot. On land not already rich the land must be manured; mark out the rows four feet apart and "They's going to be something the matter with my big brother Jim next w e e k / said a 6-year-old child to her teacher.

U r o w t h etf d i e r i h a n y . There are now in the German empire, according to the census for 1885, just completed, twenty-one cities with a population of more than 100,000. The establishment of the empire seems to have contributed greatly to its numerical growth, as there are in round numbers 6,000,000 more inhabitants than there were in 1871. It has increased more rapidly than any European State except Kussia,and notwithstanding the large and continuous emigration Berlin has gained about 200,000 since the census of 1885, having over 1,316,382. Dusseldorf shows a gain of something above nineteen per cent, in five years, having at present 114,451. Even quaint, curious, pictorial Nuremberg has added an excess of 16,000 to her people, now 116,- 193. Strassburg, in the Kainbold provinces of Elsas,,has 112,000, an increment of 8,000. Despite this outward semblance of prosperity, it is declared that there is far more poverty and distress than there was previous to the empire, and that thousands of the lower orders devoutly wish that it had never been formed. In Berlin, particularly, there has been, in the last fourteen years, a deal of suffering, and crime of every kind, from petty theft to child murder, has increased to an alarming extent. The heavy taxation levied upon the whole community to support the enormous army has been, one great cause of poverty among the people.
