And yet for ninny days she wits In deadly peril of her life."

For her fortune V ■She Intel none." 'Don't tell me. Doctor, that an Inno-

cent creature like that could give any one cause for revenge."

No; I won't tell you anything of the sort."

I think I see. Some one was madly lu love with her?"

If you were to guess till this day out you would not llnd the cause," sold my frlcud. "Let us >lt down here, and I will explain. It's no secret; I wonder the Major has not told you."

"Down here" was on a rustic seat that the Major's pretty wife had made at Lhu end of his garden, close to where a little till, r ti M he lost In the blue Hudson, tinkled Its way through his grounds.

"During the war," begau the Doctor, "I served In the army, In the same regiment with au old schoolmate. Hu was a line soldier as ever drew a sword. Hale, hearty, and Bound In nitnd and body; eager to see service—and he saw plenty. I thought that lie bore a charmed life, till ono day he was carried Into the hospital tent In a bad way. A ball had entered his shoulder, glauced on the clavicle (what yon call the collar-bone), and had gone —somewhere. That was all we could tell, for there was no other orifice; tint, whether It hod passed up or dowu, or taken some erratic counte rouud about, such as balls will take, we knew not, and no prob- ing could find out. Well, hu recovered, went North to regain his strength, and for nearly three years I lost sight of him. When the war was over, and I had beguu to practice as a civilian In New York, I met Mm again. But how changed! He was a living skeleton, and I saw lu a moment that he had become habituated to opium. Do you kuow whatthatuicanH? Sn ? Well, throw a bucket of water Into u plaao, and then light a lire uuder it, and IU strings will not be more out of tune than an opium-smoker's nerves are out of order. Ho asked me if he might call on me at my oltlcc, and of course I assented; but it was days before he came, and when he did arrive I knew that he hod been preparing himself for a right with himself. Some foolish patients come prepared to hide the truth, some to magnify their Ills. It Is part of our business, In serious cag' es, to examines man's mind beforewc ask about his body, and hardened as t surgeon must be, I confess that the con dit inn of my poor friend frightened me. There was au expression In his eye that I bad never seen In any sane being; and what made this worse was the calm business-like manner In which he spoke. He told me that soon after he had (apparent* ly) recovered from his wound, he began to suffer from pains in his head, which In- creased in severity till they became so agoulzlng that he had recourse to opiates to alleviate thcin. "But I have not come to consult you about this, this I con bear —must bear. Would to Owl that thoy were always tearing mo! The worat Is when they ore not."

"They leavo yon very weak?" I aug' gusted.

"They leave me," he replied, quite calmly, "with ajninilng, all but unconquerable, desire to take human life."

"I am uot a nervous man, but I started and looked round me for some weapon of defence. "Don't be afraid," he continued with a sad smile, "the lit la not on now. I should not haro come if It had been. I have been nearly starved once or twice, not during to leave my room. I can r pur my madness now; the question Is, how loug I can continue to do so. I feel that It is growing upon me. I feel my power of resistance becoming waaker aud weaker—the craving fur blood get* ting stronger and stronger.

I said this tosatlsfy him, poor fellow 1 In his weak state I could have laid him down like a child- It did satisfy him, and wc went home together.

with him. I have brought wretched curs ontofthe street, and killed them In my frcniY, In the hope to exhaust It ou them. It Is no use. I must have human life."

" 'Any human life?" I Inquired, "or some one In partlcnlarr

" 'Why do you ask this, Doctor?" he cried, getting suddenly excited.

" 'No matter: goon." "Sometimes," he resumed, "it scorns

that any life would do; aud sometimes —Doctor, four daya befbro I saw you I met, upon a New Jersey ferry-boat, a young girl. So pretty, so refined, and ntca 1 I followed her to' her lioine—the de vi 1 that has taken possession of me, led me. She went In, and soon came out again Into her little gardon, and tended her flowers—poor child 1 Doctor, ffl had had a pistol with me I should hare shot her. You may smile; hut some day soon I shall take a pistol on purpose, and shoot her."

It was clearly no use arguing with htm. The best way with such people la to admit their facts and try to work round them.

Then," said I, "the only thing you canduia to submit to Hie restriction of an asylum, till this feeling has passed.'

" 'It will not pass. If I were to go to a madhouse I should sham sane. Sooner oi later their vigilance over me would be relaxed. Then I should murder my keeper, aud go straight for that Innocent girl."

" 'Then leavo the country." " 'Well, that would save her; but, Doc-

tor, one life Is as dear to Its holder as another. If I don't kill her, I shall kill some one else."

M ' My dear fellow," I replied, light a tone as I could assume, "these fancies are curable. Put yourself under skilled medical treatment. You are all to bits, physically. Get sound In body, and

'II get all right In your mind "

-happened to have a strong preparation of hasheesh by me. I gave him a dose, and

hi hi under Its influence I carefully examined his head. Now the head you must know, does not fatten or waste away In proportion to other parts of the hotly. Still his had become mere Bkln and hone; aud this state perhaps, gave me an advantage over others who had made the same examination. At last I felt, or thought I felt, a faint twitching—a sort of abnormal pulsation—about two Inches above thu left ear. It might he merely uervous but it miyht he routed ■'.'/ f he ball.'

" l then Bet my mind to work, and thought the whole cose over steadily. In the first place was that Impulse to take

life, of which my poor friend had spuken, really uncontrollable. For example, suppose that one day he did take a pistol 'on purpose,' and go to that young laily'-. garden—would he shoot her? To suppose that the Insauc mind never changes Its purpose, or turns from the fell completion of Its purpose, Is to say In other words thnt the Insane mind Is stronger than the sane mind. If a man with a freshly broken leg were to tell yon he was golug to run a foot race, you would not believe him, because your common sense revolts against the Idea of his running with a leg disabled. But If one with his brain disabled declares that he is going to do something dependent upon the action of his mind, common sense does not always argue so welL

"hi the second place, did my poor friend, with his impaired means of judgment, believe tluitthc Impulse was uncontrollable? Because If ho did the end would be the same, so far as he was concerned. He would sacrifice his own life in protect that of others, though lliev were In no actual danger.

In the third place, might not this story ui the Impulse be a mere pretence to excuse Ihc commission of suicide? Now there arc no forms of madness more obscure In their origin, more difficult to de- tect, more persistent, and more fatal than sulctdnl mania; and as there have been numerous coses in which persons who have destroyed themselves have carefully prepared evidence tending to show that their death was aceldental, why should there not be one In which the fatal act was to be (so fur as possible) justified?

"In the fonr(h.' plnce, granting that there was cither real homicidal mania or fan- clod homicidal mania tending to suicidal, or simply the latter—waa there a posslbtl- ty of cure?

"As the three first questions rested for their solution en one set of facts, and the deductions to be drawn therefrom, I considered them together. A victim of sul cldal mania rarely If ever speaks of suicide. When a man says he la going to drown himself, you may generally direct him to the cars which will take him to the river side with the fullest couvlcilon be will not breakfast with crabs. If, In an exceptions! case, suicide is mentioned, it will either be treated lightly, of an act that Is not a crime, or the patient will be very earnest in his ussuraitces that he would never commit It. Remembering my poor friend's mauncr, I noticed that he spoke of taking his own life with much more emotion than he evinced when ho told mo of the impulse to shed the blood of otbera. His words, 'I must have human life-if I hail Itad a pistol with mo I should have shot her—some day soon I shall take a pistol on purpose aud shoot her—I should murder my keeper and go straight for thnt Innocent girl,' were spoken as calmly as though he said, 'I owe five dollars—I must go and pay them,' and at the same time with a tone of deep eoiiiiui.-eiation for the predestined victims. They were to die for no limit of their own, but they were doomed to death

If he lived. When, on the other band, he spoke of saving their lives at the sscrl- iiec of his own, his manner changed.. No

afflicted with suicidal mania ever treated self-destruction with the horror, the cunsciousucss of its wickedness, and the

Uglous duubU as to Its being pardonable uuder any circumstances, with which he considered it. He had never once spoken of murder as acrliue.

After s long and careful consideration I came to the following conclusions I—

lie la not laboring nnder autcldal mania.

His impulse Is real, and will have fatal results.

'Confinement In an asylum would havu no curative effect.

'Then I took down tny books bearing upon the auatoiny of the human head.

If you do so I shall have Uie highest respect for you; If you do not, and ever have the misfortune to pass within a mile of my house, the Interior of your skull will become more Intimately acquainted than ever with lead ID the nan. al form.' "

"Verv neatly put," said thaDoctor,"bul our friend does not think of committing sulcido now."

"Mercy, Doctor!" I cried, "you don't mean to say that the man who wanted to murder the Major's wife is—Is"—

Feeling as I fool, shall I be Justified before God In taking my own llfb? Will It be deadly sin for me to do for myself what 1 would do to a mod dog?'

"I repeat his words almost as he spoke them. I cannot give yon the fuintcat idea of lhu solemn deliberation with which ha pat this awful question. For some incnts I could not say a word. Then I ntartcd up and told him that I would not answer him yea or no—that It was not fair to ask me to take such a responsibility. Then he rose too, and said that he must resolve It for himself, aud I saw plainly which way It would go, 'Glvt till to-morrow to think It out,' I said, talntsig him.

" 'To-morrow may be too late,' he replied. 'The At may come upon me to-'with her.

The next morning I addressed him thus :—

Before I answer you as to whether you would he Justified before God, under the Impulse you have told me off, lu taking your own life to save that of another, you must answer me several questions.'

" '(Jo on,' he said. "•When you consulted those doctors

did you tell them all what you have told ntr

" 'No. I did not dare. I said that I had horrible thoughts and cravings, but without entering into details as to what they were. Onee I went so far as to say I feared I was becoming dangerous, and' the fool smiled.'

" 'Good. Did they ever speak of searching for that ball?'

" 'Yes, they said It might be the cause of my BnQeriugs, supposing It had lodged near the brain, but that no one would take the responsibility of searching for It —so to speak—lu thu dark.'

"They were right—the operation might kill you, and the ball be not found after all.' ■

"He looked np, and the dull, dejected look that had become habitual passed from his face,

Ami oven If It wore found,' I went on, its extraction might cause your death all the same.'

He laid his hand on my arm, and tried to speak, but ho could not.

" 'Still It would give you n chance— Just a chance of more than life.' His grasp tightened. I could feel his heart beating. 'And submitting to such an operation—almost hopeless though It he- would not be quite suicide.'

He fell on his knees and sohhed like a child. 'You'll do It?' ho cried, 'God Al-

ilghty bless you! You'll do ltt'

"Well," said iny friend, lighting a fresh cigar, "to make my story short, I did It, with the ssslstntire of a young surgeon whose nerve I could trust.

DRivixa RBSS.—A Max's WAT AND A WOMAN'S War.—When a woman lias a be> to drive Into the coop she takes hold of her hoops with both hands, and shakes them quietly toward the delinquent, and says, "Shew I there." The hen takes one look at tho object to convince herself that " i woman, and then stalks majestically

Into the coop In perfect disgust of the sex. A man dout do that way. He goes out of doors and says; "It Is singular nobody In this house can drive a hen hut myself," and, picking up a stick of wood, hurls It at the otTcuding biped, and observes, "Got In there, you thief." The hen Immediate- ly loses her reason, and dashes to the op. poslto end of tho yard. The man straight- way dashes after her. She comes back again with her head down, her wings out; aud followed by an assortment of stove wood, fruit cans, and coal clinkers, with a much pulflng and very mod man In Uie rear. Then she skims up on the stoop, aud under the barn, and over a fence two, and around the house, and back again to the coop, all the while followed by tilings convenient for handling, and by a

whose coat Is on the saw-buck, and whose hat Is on tbo ground, and whose perspiration and profanity nppoar to have

limit. By this time the other bens have come out to take a hand In the debate, and help dodge the inKslles—and then tho man says every hen eon the place shall be sold In tho morning, and pats on his things and goes down street, and the

urn dons her hoops, and has every one of those hens housed and contented in tw minutes, and the only sound heard ou the premises Is tbo hammering by the oldest boy, as be mends tho broken pickets, iMnliury A'i «•».

Mourn* DoniiRitHrs.—Shakespeare's Is not the only Dogberry. You recollect in the life of Abraham Lincoln the story of tho Western lawyer, who said he ne could tell a story with embeaxlemcnts. have heard of a stout, cheerful and polite Dogberry, who had arrived at the discretion of fifty years, whon bis parents died. Then, in reply to some friend, he said i 1 am a poor orphanlcss man." The same person remarked of his nephew, that "he hail not decided art, but he waa prepond- erating." There was a worthy old deacon of the olden time who was repeating Watts' hymn, line for line, and read It:

Ye rancled sinners, damned into ever- lasting redemption.

When the Boston Ire was stopped nt the aew poat-ofDoo, an unfinished building, a man standing near was heard to remark, "Well, I am glut! they bare got that tiro under headway at last." Anoth- er man said: "If a man should draw a pistol on me, do you suppose 1 would put my knife In his Jeopardy?" A venerable clergyman, when he found an Inebriated person In tho gutter, said to him : "My friend, how did you gi'L there?" The man with just a twinkle of Jest, said "notwithstanding." This (unused the clergyman, and he went home and tried to im- part It to lhu wife of bis bosom. "He said to me 'nevertheless.'" The quality of Shakespeare's maJapropuiiQ la not strained.—Rev.

Tho fnmo of our PsHflc Railroad has penetrated Canada, antlaCanadlanPacific Railway Company has been organlied mi a basis which seems to tnsarcthe construction of a railroad through the vast wilderness which lies betwmn Ontario and British Columbia. The company's charter Is extremely liberal. They have a guaranteed subsidy of thirty million dollars in money aud thirty million acres of land, besido mauy valuable concessions. The entire lino Is to be completed In ten years from July 20, 1H71-

perfbrinancea of the ghoat must have been greatly exaggerated, and Indeed, that Newburyport had no ghost at all. But greatly to the disgust of every material- ist, and the Joy of every spiritualist, and the annoyance of every person of common sense, the ghost ou Thursday and Friday put lu another appearance or appearances, and the excitement, which had been slowly subsiding, has now broken out afresh, and Is likely to continue until some explanation can be given of the supernatural manifestations of which the Newburyport school-house Is the scene. The ghost la evidently no well conducted one. It Is given to creating disturbances, and cer tnlnly comes under the denomination of Idle and disorderly, sn offence, tho penalty or which is thirty days in the House of Correction. What pleasure a ghoat can take In throwing about brooms—unless It Is the ghost of a married lady, who used to hold the reins of government—and standing dust-pans upon their handles— unless It is the ghost of a departed magician—or showing Its hand—unless It Is the ghost of a departed gambler—Is more than wc can imagine. We are seriously Impressed with the Idea that a veritable Newburyport ghost would be a great deal more dignified. Such conduct as this Newburyport , hosi has been gnllty of would better nccome the ghost of some western township which has no character to sustain. Clearly this ghost has no self- respect. It cannot be an Intelligent ghost; It cannot have any Interest in the diffusion of knowledgu, or in the education of the young, or it weld not offer such unseem- ly Interruptions during school hours. It cannot be a benevolent ghost, or It would not endeavor to cast odium upon a teacher who has always boeu highly esteemed. Unquestionably the Newburyport authorities will be justified In adopting harsh measures with this ghost; it has laid no claim to forbearance ou the part of others, having been unforbeartug Itself. Why not appoint a special ghost committee, with power to send for persons and papers—indeed, with power to send for the ghost Itself, and have a regular Inves- tigation. These are the days of investi- gations. Sm )t a committee we havo no doubt would be able to present a very spirited report. Something must be done before

To the inhabitants of Newburyport at present "TIM grave* stand tenantles*. and the sheeted

dead Do tqueak and gibber In the city street.."

And this ghost must be laid. Then, besides, auch an investigation would not be without Interest. Imagine the counsel for the ghost asking the name of tbo accused i

"Ite thmi n spirit nf heal til or goblin damned ?" And the counsel for the city Inquiring Did you say

"A tpirlt of health or goblin damned:'" And the ghost replying be didn't, or if he did he dldnt mean to.

By all means let a committee of Investi- gation be appointed and eud tho matter. The public will be Interested, and Uie poor scholars will he allowed to sit at their tasks In peace. Instead of being obliged to cry;

"The time* have been Thai when the uraln* were out tbo man woul<

die Ami there an end; but now they rise again WlUi twenty mortal murders on their orown* And push u* from our aloof*."

A gentleman was surprised, during the lato frosty weather, to ace his little daughter bring home from the Sunday school a grave treatise on "lmekslMlng." "My child," ssld ho, "this Is too old for you, ynu can't make anything of it.n "I know It, papa; I thought 11 would teach me bow to slide backward*."

"Ma," said a little Watarlown urchin, peeping from the bed-rlnthea, "l am cold; I want some more rover on the bed." "Lie still, my dear." ssid the mother, 'until yonr sister comes home from church, she has got the comforter for a hustle."

An Iowa man demanded ♦♦,000 from a neighbor for slandering hint, bnt after sitting down and cmuiiiug the cost, and reckoning up the probabilities*,, concluded to compromise the suit forfsfi cosh.

Ouit BLRSBED CiviuzATiox.—If a person go to the police court In this city, or any other city, and watch the criminals as they arc brought np, he or she will not be long In noticing that ignorance la ono great cause of crime. But ignorance is never allowed to weigh one Jot or tittle, when tho criminal is sentenced; Indeed, it seems that the more Ignorant the criminal, the heavier the sentence. ' 'This tendency to larceny, must be cheeked; these dep- redators must be taught that Utcy cannot prey upon society." And how must they be taught? The law says, by punlslimeut, —by confinement, with hard labor In the house of correction. A poor, miserable, half-clad woman, steals a shawl, and an soon as the larceny Is discovered, half a doieii officers are on her track; she is arrested, brought np in the police court, the testimony against her rolls In like an Al- pine avalanche, sweeping all her denials and protestations away before It, and being found guilty she Is, first, scowllngly reprimanded, and then sentenced to the house of correction, for a period, varying from one to six months. A poor Ignorant woman, whose moral sense never taught her the difference between right and wrong; whoso Ignorance was the potent reason for the Inability to provide for herself honestly. Now how is the Intelll gent criminal treated? he Is a cashier of a hank; he baa three thousand doliara a year; he is a church member,—a Sabbath school teacher; the commandments areas familiar to htm as poverty and suffering were to the. pour woman. He finds that his salary is not adequate lo his expenses, and Instead of retrenching, he plunges In- to speculation, drawing funds from the bank; makes some money, and Invests In real estate, then loses and confesses himself a defaulter. Then comes the dis- gusting part. "Ills poor with and children have always thought him the son! of honesty; he feels his disgrace deeply; could he effect a compromise?" then the defaulter turns over a portion of his real estate to the hank—makes partial restitu- tion, Is pitied by society, and regarded In the light of a victim of a cruel conspira- cy; his friends get him up a testimonial, and the edocated criminal retires upon the results of his pllfurlngs while Mary Malo- nvy, is picking oakum, or cooking meals for murderers, for the larceny of a twenty-three cent water-proof: and this year Is eighteen hundred and seventy-three.

I 'oted, to adjourn the meeting to two weeks from date at two o'clock P. M.

The town meeting on Monday was one of unusual Interest. All the nominees of the eltlsens caucus on Saturday evening, were elected with two exceptions. The excitement principally cen- tered in the choice of a selectman in Bullord Vale. Two candidates were presented lioth of whom arc excellent men and either would prove nn acceptable and efficient officer. Many of our citizens were unite passlcd to know which to vote for, and If consistent with the location of Ihc candidates would hay a been glad to aid in electing Itoth of them.

Two iiiii>nt-ii»!it changes have been made in the transaction of town meeting basiness. One '.< the adoption of the law providing for the choice of three road commissioners instead of the old system of highway surveyors. A com mittee was appointed to nominate the road com mlssioncrs, and report at the adjourned meeting. It U hoped the new plan may have a fair trial nud by good management we hnv doubt the cltangu will prove advantageons.

The other new measure instituted is that of special appropriations which arc not to be over-

,drawn in their several departments. There can- i.i- but little doubt that Ibis system will prove beneficial and after It gets Into working order, will meet with general approval.

Rev. W. II. II. Murray of Boston, gave a lecture at the Town Hull, in tho Andover Course, on Thursday evening of lost week, subject:—"My Creed." The speaker evidently does his own thinking, and does not follow in the old ruts. Ills progressive view* may some-

what startle the timid and conservative, bnt as long as ho holds fast to sound doctrine, a little ieoricssncM and independence in the utterance of advanced notions In regard to non-essentials, will do no harm. The denomination with which ho Is connected will not bo injured In the long run by having a few men like Beeclier and Mur- ray as a van-guard.

on Monday evening, Miss Emily Faithful, the celebrated English lady, gavo a lecture In the same course upon " The Best Society." It was n beautifully written, and well delivered production, and received the marked attention of an appreciative audience. At the conclusion of the lecture, the following resolution was Introduced

and passed unanimously : Rewind, That wo tender our hearty thanks

WOODMAS AND CHABTUEE,

THE TOWN MKETI.NO.—The principal topics ' conversation this week have been the cau-

cuses and the town meeting. The former held on Friday evening, and they assumed

an aspect which was most painful and unexpected. The Republican caucus was called to order, nnd a town committee was chosen, and a

clerk nominated, Mr. 8. O. Sarircnt ic- ceiving the nomlnalnin, Ul votes being cast. Alter inking this action, un adjournment was suggested, to meet the Democrats, who were In

The 'ii.iii iii,in of the meeting and another oftbe (tarty, desirous of forming u oalitlim with the Democrat!-, favored this ac-

tion, and un adjournment followed. A large number of the Republicans protested against

ny compromise with tho Democrats; there was io necessity for it; the Republicans were strong nough to elect their own candidates, and there

was no Indication of a want of harmony In regard to the nomination. That the Republican ilrength In ibis eccentric movement was not ivorwhciming, was evident from the fact that

in the caucus composed of the Democrats and the secessionists, the united rbrrci could only cast 117 votes, whereas the Republican cau-

cnsl Ml votes, without the aid of a Democrat. The result of this cltiscus caucus must have been painfully humiliating to the Republicans, aud Intensely delightful to the Democrats, who humbugged their old opponents, and for the time, friends, out of four of the nix officers nom- naud. That arrangement, while It stamped :he secessionists with the ability to cficct a rorpj as main, showed that Ihey could not do it with profit. When tho Republicans, who were blindly led into forming this coalition, awoke to a knowledge of Ihc foolishness of which they they had been gvllty, they certainly must have felt humiliated. A great deal has 1-cen said

our eltlsens thinking and acting for themselves; the results of this town meeting has shown that they have not done so; they have allowed themselves to U- led by a few sore headed politicians, and mark the result; tbey have elected only one man of their party, while the Democrats have got fire. No one can blame the Democrats for boosting that they can lead tho Republicans, for the fact stands that they have. Tho nominations by tbo Democrats and seceding Republicans, were: moderator, Jacob Emerson; town clerk and school eom-

liitir, S. O. Sargent; constables, Frank Iu- gnlls, J. M. Doe, D. Currier; auditor, Amos L. Gale; selectmen, S. 0. Sargent, J. 0. Par- ker and Franklin Sannders.

The Republican ticket hail for selectmen, D. Pierce, D^SV. Noycs, H, N. Coburn; for constables, W. II. Buttrick, J. W. F. Cooper, and Norman Fuller; school committee, R. F. John- son. The result of the election was not unexpected. The eltlsens ticket was elected by a handsome majority. The highest vote on the Republican ticket was 181, for Mr. Noyps for selectman; the lowest on the citliens tlclbat was 289, for J. O. Parker for selectman, a majority of 124. The appropriations Included 97000 for schools, 94000 for roads, 95200 for a new school house fn tho Marston District, ,st HHI for new hose for the fire department. change In tho post office- was the cause for tho break in tho party, but that did not need have broken It; the friends of Mr. Sargent could hove had him elected to all the offices In the village—the post office of course excepted— If they wanted to, without going out of the party, and selling five offices Io the Democrats to accomplish it. But now it Is asked, why ail this animus against Mr. Patterson? what has ho done ? did he appoint himself ? certainly not; President Grant is tho cause of all this mischief; he alone Is to blamo; he had the appointing power, and it is well for President Grant that ho is safely inaugurated, or steps might have been taken by the friends of the late acting postmaster to prevent hht taking his seat. Thb Metbucn putt office fs a tertons matter, fnvolv- Ingsomc weighty interests,and care should be taken how it Is trifled with. We have said acting postmaster. Mr. Sargent was nothing else. On tho tint of July last, a law came into operation, taking the Methucn post office from the control ol tbo Postmaster General) and it arose to the dignity of ono requiring the appointment of a postmaster by ihc President, and confirmed by the Senate; as Mr. Sargent had not been appointed, ho was simply acting postmaster, and was not removed to moke way for any one. Methucn was without a postmaster, and the Presldont appointed one. That Is the whole matter, and those who have been griovlng ovci Mr Sargent's removal, have been grieving with out cause.

ricbool dlslriet No. 1 held its annual meeting Moinlay evening, and chose the following officer, for the ensuing year: Moderator, Asa s. An-lin, Clerk, Nathan Q, Abbott; Prudential Committee, Jease Jkyer. Quito a lively contest arose in eon- sequence of a petition inserted In the "warrant" to relinquish the use and privileges of the "Som- orswortli Act," so called. Those speakers favor, ing a return to the ordinary system in force, ex. pressed the conviction that it bad proved undesir- able, and at coin plished far less henents than the least sanguine had hoped, while the opposite par ty claimed that it was far more efficient ami satisfactory. Considerable effort was made U> prolong the iputs tlon hy adjournment, but the motion to do away with It Anally paeaed, bv a vole of 10 for and !'J against. Immediately following this action the meeting abruptly adjourned, without date. The evening was very stormy, and not more titan half of the voters were present.

Very high winds prevailed during the storm or Monday sad the ilay following, and were It not that the snow was rather heavy, would have caused another blockade. As It was. the taow found Its way into moderate drift.-* in the more exposed placet. VtAToa.

—The first of Ihe second series of social parties inaugurated by Messrs. Morse, McKay and Beetle, came off at Sannders Hall on Monday evening. In consequence of the unusual severity of the weather the attendance was not so large as it would otherwise have been. There was, nevertheless, a goodly number present, and the occasion was one of much quiet enjoyment. The music fur the occasion was furnished by Arkeroyed and StcwarUon's band, and was conspicuous for its excellence. What- ever objection there tuny be to dancing, such quiet, refined parties as these cannot offer any. They utt'..1.1 nn opportunity to form and foster frtcndshl|M among those who might otherwise only meet as acquaintances. Whatever tends to draw ]IL".|II.;I|,IMT to each other, nnd to promote friendliness, should receive its meed of encouragement. At such parties as these there Is to danger of finning ui'jvorthy o equal ntiuue- l.i|'-. The company is of the most scloct char-

acter morally, and the managers of the parties deserve commendation for offering such oppor- tunities for social enjoyment.

A full house, as might lie ex- peeled, was In waiting when Mr. Tourjee appeared, and for oue hour and a half they were highly entertained and much profited by the exercises of the occasion. Mr, Tourjee makes no charge forhls services personally, ftir thus going ii.mi plaru to place on this tsorthy mlaslon, but he docs It pimply to stir the |>eoplo up more generally ou eimgregational singing, a thing he In always successful in doing, as he proves to all beyond Ihe pcradventures of their own doubt, lluil they can sing, by showing them the simplicity of music. He holds that all, from the youngest to the oldest, can sing, and so far as the company gathered to listen to him is concerned, be certainly proved his " holding," as there was not one but swelled the chorus, il unhand*, that wives bad never heard sing a note, burst forth into Ihe lotul- ttt.

Abundant proof of tho assertion is the freedom from large Arcs In this city, and the efficiency ofthe department is rendered more noticeable front onr limited water supply. Tho members of Ihe lire lirlgade huvo petitioned the city government for an Increase of allow, ancc,—the pittance now received Is not worthy the name of salary—and wo hope their demands will meet a response from tho committee whom tho subject has itceit referred, that will at once confer credit upon themselves, and meet the desires of the whole community, and if this is done, the firemen will M llbernlly dealt with; the firemen in neighboring cities arc paid much morn limn onr own; lu Chelsea each memlier receives two hundred dollars, and

LOVE IS F.NOIOII ; or the freeing of Phnramond A morality; by William Morris, author of The Earthly Paradise, etc. Boston: Ka»isn HaoTiir.ns. Lawrence : WuhrTonl A Hice. There need be no fear o( dUpclUng the deli-

cious recollections of the former poems of this sweetest of modern songsters, by any lack of graceful tenderness or touching beauties In this; we have like pictures of soft and Imaginative scenes, Ihc same reflnement and purity, and that charming simplicity that has won for the pre. vlous epics, so deservedly high fame. The sul>- ject of thli poem may lie briefly told In the ar iiuim-iii that precedes the poem t " This story, which is told by way of a monthly set before an Emperor and Empress newly wedded, ihowettt of a King whom nothing but Love might iatlaiy who left all to seek Love, and, having fonml ll| fonnd this also, that he had enough, though he lacked all else." There Is a wonderful beauty In Ihc sweet manner of its presentation by Mr. Morris, the whole poem having the ring of the golden time of oar llteratnrc, In lu healthiness, its freshness, its truth to nature, Its directness, and the atieence of all apiMircnt effort. While the Imagery is luxuriant, it flows naturally out oftbe snhjoct. There Is no attempt at flno lng, no |illlng up of metaphors, no profusion m cloying ii in lies, nought of ili.n emhelbjhnicnt with which It li the custom nftoo mnny of our modem (axis to overlay their work for the sake of showing how finely they can write, and wbtch cause II to resemble a beautiful woman decked In gaudy colors, and neutralizing her charms by the rich vulgarity of her mi ire. But It is something too late to advocate Mr. Morris's title to rank among the most gifted singers of oar day. That wns long since caiahlINtied by almost unanimous consent. This Is at once the iwecteit.most dainty, tender

and iimeitiii poem ofthe day, and will give pure delight to 111' 11 ' 11.: .

In the morning, his wife, who rose first, soon returned to Ihc chamber, and holding up the bottle, exclaimed, "Why, Jacob, how came this Ixittle on the table ." "Well," was tho response, "I was troubled a little with my cold hut uig.it, and took a dose of your cough syrup."

Theologians and savants gravely discussed the probabilities or Its being In- habited by a race of sentient beings, with forms and fucultles like our own, and even propounded schemes Tor opening communication with them, In case they existed. One or these was to construct on the broad highland* of Asia a series or geo- metrical figures on n scale so gigantic as to be visible from our planetary neighbor, on the supposition that the moon people would recognize the object, nud Immedi- ately construct similar figures In reply!

experience. The results, however, of ex- I In the light of modem knowledge, tli pcrlinents on chlckeus were wholly in ■ tubllsliment of this Terrestrial and Lunar favor of the Instinctive nature of these signal Service Bureau was treated us a perceptions. Chickens kept In a state or feasible scheme, although practical dllll- bllndness bv various devices, from one to cultlcH, which so often keep men from three days, were placed in the light under making fools or themselves, stood in the a set or carefully prepared conditions, and way or actual experiment; but the dls- thc results or the experiments ore slated cusslon was kept up at Intervals, until It as follows,

Often, at the end or two minutes, they rollowed with their eyes the movements or crawling Insects, turning their heads with alt the precision of an old fowl. In from two to fifteen minutes they pecked at some object, showing not merely au In- stinctive perception of distance, but an original ability to measure distance with something like Infallible accuracy. If beyond the reach of their necks they walked or ran up to the object of their pursuit, and may be said to have invariably struck It, never missing by more thun a halt's breadth; this, too, when the specks ut which they struck were no bigger than the smallest visible dot of an 1.

A chicken, at the end of six minutes after having its eyes uuvalled, followed with Its head the movements or a fly twelve Inches distant; ttt ten minutes, the fly, coining within reach or Its neck, was selxed and swallowed at the first stroke; rii the end or twenty minutes It had not attempted to walk a step. It was then placed on rough, uneven ground, within sight and call of a hen, with chickens or Its own age. After standing chirping for about a minute It went straight toward the hen, displaying as keen perception or the qualities or the outer world aw It was ever likely to possess In after life. It leaped over the smaller obstacle* that lay In Its path, and ran round the larger, reaching the mother In as nearly a straight line as the nature or the ground would penult. Thus It would seem that, prior to experience, the eye—at least the eye or the chicken—perceives the primary i|itall- tles or the external world, all arguments or the purely analytical school or psycho logy to the contrary notwithstanding.

Not less decisive were experiments on hearing. Chickens hatched and kept In the dark for a day or two, on being placed In the light, nine or ten feet from a box In which a brooding hen was concealed, after standing for a minute or two, uni- formly set oft* straight to the box In an- HWcr to the call of the hen which they had never seen and never before heard. This they did, struggling through grass and over rough ground, when not able to stand steadily on their legs. Again, chickens that from the tlrst had been denied Hie use or their eyes by having hoods drawn over their heads while yet In the shell, were, while thus blind, made subjects or experiment. These, w hen left to themselves, seldom mode n forward step; their movements were round nnd round, and backward; but when placed within five or six (feet of the hen mother, they. In answer to her call, became much more lively, began to make Little forward tour- neys, and soon rollowed her by sound alone, although or course blindly.

Another experiment consisted In ron during chickens dear fur n time, by seal ing their oars with several sheets of gun paper bdore they had escaped from tin shell. These on having their ears opened when two or three days old, and being placed within call of the mother concealed In a box or ou the other side of a uV after turning around a few times, run straight to the spot whence came the llrst sound they hud ever heard. Clearly, of these chickens, It cannot be saiil Unit sounds were to them at first but meaning- less sensations. .

One or two observations favorable to the opinion that animals have nil Instinctive knowledge of their enemies may be taken for what they are worth. When twelve days old, one of my little proteges running about beside inc. gave the chirp whereby they announce the npprnnch of danger.

There can be no life without air. Beau- tiful to the eye or the distant observ the moon is a Hcpulchral orb—a world death and silence. No vegetation clothes its vast plulus or stony desolation, trav ersed by monstrous erevases, broken by enormous peaks that rise like gigantic tombstones Into space; no lovely forms or ctoad flout In the blackness of Its sky. There daytime Is only night lighted by a rayless sun. There is no rosy dawn In the morning, no twilight In the evening The nights ure pltch-dnrk. In ilnyllme the solar beams arc lost against the jug' god ridges, the sharp points of the rocks, or the steep shies of profound nbyssos; and the eye sees only grotesque shapes relieved ngalust fantastic shadows black as Ink, with none of that pleasant grada- tion and intrusion or light, none or the subtile blending of light and shadow, which make the charm of a terrestrial landscape.

TlIM WILLIAM TILL STOUY. — l'Vw more Interesting controversies, both In n liter- nryand an historical point of vlow, have ever orison than the discussion which has recently been carried mi respecting the Authenticity ami genuineness of tho rlwlss legend In which the archery feats of Wil- liam Tell are described. The object of this brief note Is not to attempt la settle the dispute, hut merely to stale Dial the story has penetraled the antic Circle. In the metrical traditions <>r Upland nnd liusslan Kurelia, nil the leading particulars In the life or tho Swiss hero are closely re- produced—unless, indeed, the story bo of Nothern origin. In Lapland literature It Is varied, so that the son Is the active, and the father the passive, personage In the tale. The latter has boon taken cap- live by a band or Finn marauders. The former—a boy twelve years of ago ■ threatens the party with Ids bow from a position oT safely on the other side of a lake. The captors, dreading his skill, promise the father's liberty on a condition similar to that related In the Swiss legend.

" Kaise one hand and sink the other, for the water will attract the arrow," is the father's advice. The apple Is duly cloven, and the lather released. The Incident of the jump from the boat Is also recited; and the nothern locality specified as ills- tlnctlv as the Lucerne of Swiss history. The legend In this form was discovered shout thirty years ago by Mathlns Alexan- der Castren, a native of Finland. In the Finnish and Lappish metrical writings he also discovered the lending particulars of Ulysses with the Cyclops. "From what original source," says a reviewer of Cas- ren's work, " or through whnt channels these traditions hnve travelled, II Is pro- hahly In vain to Inquire or dispute; the triumph or courage over numbers, of policy over brute force, has its charm for tho rudest mil Ions, nml from Jack the Olant- Klller to William Tell the key-note or the strain Is ever tho same."—©entlemowo Magazine.

TUB FIUST AMKKICAN NI'-WSI-AI-KK.— The story of the llrst American newspaper, brier as was Its lire, Is full of curious In- terest. Seventy years sfter the landing Tthe l'llgrlms on l'lymoulh Hock, and

two hundred and fifty years after the In- vention of printing, a newspaper was Is- sued In Boston. U lived one day and only one copy Is known to have been pre- served. That copy was discovered by the historian or Salem, the Hev. J. It. Felt, In the Colonial State-paper Olllcc, in Lon- don, while engaged In researches relating to the history or his own city. This plo- DMI of American Journalism was published by Benjamin Harris at the London Cof- reo-house, Boston, nml was printed for him bv lllchnrd Pierce on Thursday, tho L'.lth of September, 1690, nearly two centuries after the discovery of the New World by Columbus. The paper was printed on throe pages of a folded sheet, leaving one page blank, with two columns to a page, aud each page about eleveu Inches by seven in size. Harris proposed to Issue his paper once a month, or often- or inhere should In- a "glut of occurren- ces." Ills llrst, nnd, as It turned out, his only number, contained several columns of home nnd foreign gossip, without a word of editorial comment. Unfortunate- ly for the success of his undertaking, he printed one or two items of local and mllllary news which set the olllclnl bnsy- bodles In a ferment of Indignation. The legislative authorities solemnly detor-

l that the paper came out contrary to law, and that It contained "reflections >fn very high nature." To prevent Mr.

Harris from Issuing a second number they forbade "any thing In print without license llrst obtained from those authorised by the government to grunt the some." In this way the tlrst Ameri- can newspaper came to grief; nnd but for the accidental preservation of a single copy In London its very mime would have passed luto oblivion.—From "Newspapers and Editors," by B. S, Co- nant, in 1/urprr** Magazine fur March.

AGRICULTURAL,

THE VALUI or STONKS IS THE SOU..— ! The Gardeners' Chronicle, ohc of the beat I of English Journals devoted to farming and horticulture, has au interesting article

this subject, from which wo take the following paragraphs:—

Many beginners In gardening, and they ore legion nowadays, seem to consider an absence of stones to be absolutely necessary to the good condition of the soil. Picking and raking their llower-beds year after year, the surface of the soil becomes so fine that after heavy ruins It looks like a bed or cement, defying the admission of

r water. Warm showers, which are so essential nt some seasons of the year to the well-being or the plants, never reach their roots, but run off to the sides or the

•d. Bound up In this cold mortar In inter, the roots rot, and the plants die.

in dry weather the soil bakes aud cracks, thus literally lacerating or sturviog the roots at a time when Useful work ought to be going on In the plant. The same Idea prevails in connection with the soil for pot plants. Those who begin to grow a few things In pots first procure a sieve, and they look on every bit of material which will not go through no,unrtiTlnch mesh as unfit for their greenhouse plants. A continuance of such practice Is the source of inuuy failures among those who reully love gardening and cherish their plants, but who do not consider that they are thin counteracting their own wishes,

I II many gardens the rake Has for a century past been combing oil' the surface stones, which, experience shows, serve to keep the plants in health. Should not the stones be rather burled than taken from the soil? The good result- attending the trenching or old ganlens are doubtless due to the bringing up of a fresh supply of these materials, which afterwards drain anil sweeten the dark, soursoil. Perhaps, however, It Is In the heddlng-out department that the value of this material Is greatest. The shortness of the time plants

I for this purpose occupy their posi- ts, prevent tbcin from sending down

their roots to nny depth lu search or such surfaces to coll against. A few stones or brickbats might be placed at such a depth In the soil that tho roots of the plants will soon find them. It Is here that tpilck growth and abundant flower are wauted In a short time, nnd to attain this a deep, rich soil, with plenty of stones mixed in It, Is recommended. This will not only en- courage warmth nt the roots, hut drain

11 In wet seasons, and will more- over serve to keep the roots damp lu dry ones, for In dry seasons It may be remarked that tho roots In deep soil, when In contact with stones, are moist.

The principle here commended has been acted on with great success In the case of

b-troplcal plants lu Battersen Park, and there seems no doubt that tho stones, especially of a somewhat porous nature (such as brickbats), are benlflclal, by ab- sorbing nnd radiating heat, by ensuring drainage and acrutlou, and In general by securing an equilibrium of heat and moisture to the roots, nml thus obviating the evil effects of sudden and excessive changes.

MANIKK ron Fur n TBXBB, It Is clear that animal manures are not what is wanted for fruit trees, Including grape vines, berries, 4c. There may be a benefit, and usually is, nt llrst, but the ijuallty of the fruit will suffer, nml the wood itnd Toliuge are of that healthy character which Is desired. This has been noticed by Lie- big and Others. We have known prolific grupo vines to hour more fruit, hut at an expense of I'imlity, where the contents or the privy were freely used for manuring. We have always found the best success when loaves, the weedlngs of the garden, hip-manure, ami forest mold, either sin-

gly or Combined, have boon freely applied These seem to contain the different materials in proper proportion, that Is, the or- ganic, the carbonaceous, and the nitrogenous; the mineral needs to be supplied, and nothing does this so satisfactorily ns wood ashes. It supplies lurgely potash, which Is needed.

The best success—nnd 1L has been fully .achieved—which we ever attained, was by applying a coat of leaves In the fall, worked Into the 'oil In the spring, followed by weedlngs from the garden, clip- pings of the vine, with other vegetable refuse, as a mulch, sprinkled over with wood nshes, leached or uiilcuched—if the latter, more wore required- This mndc u healthy, not excessive growth, and In- creased both the i|ii:iUi\ and quantity of the fruit, It makes a sounder and better keeping fruit. This with a variety nf soils, but particularly a clay Bdll, Then; should be good drainage und exposure to air, or else, with a green mulch kept moist by the ashes, there might be loo much humidity. For grapes, this will not do. Nor will It for fruit trees If there Is u close, heavy top reaching well down, holding thus the

olsture which evaporates, and Inviting iraaUto lodgments, which will nppenr in DSSes, mildew, rusted fruit, &c. Her-

baceous material and ashes, with occa- lonal bone dust, we have found the best

application for fruit trees in general, for "lorries, nnd fur the grape. Apply yearly vhere the soil Is not rich; and In the ipflngi when the ground is dry enough,

spade It well. Use sparingly, ir nny, the strong, nitrogenous manures.

BAIT ron Faun Tnxna,—Salting n pear-trees, to prevent the blight, Is be Ing a general practice in Central New York. From 400 to 600 pounds to theacn are regularly applied each year, with sat Udactory results. A correspondent o The Small Fruit Recorder writes as fol lows on thin subject: " Last spring I put a small shovelful of the refuse material from the salt works—which Is composed, I believe, of salt, lime, and ash—a four-year-old pear tree. It has very thrifty growth, nnd Ihe leave free from blight or spot, and have a very glossy, healthy look; while others or the same lot, manured with barnyard manure, have grown but llltlc, and the foliage is spotted and dull Now, If no ill effect may be attributed to the barnyard manure, It would seem that the ilitt'emice lu those trees was owing to the salt."

A USEFUL ] INVENTION

The natural tendenry of everything earthly is decay. The very stones raised ns a tribute of affection over tho resting -jlaers of tlio dead, and lo mark Uio snel where lie* an- laid, are subject to this law. To-day wo raise the insvldo or gnu ill* monument, (Vi'»h from tin- hand of the scul|ilor,

would remain forever lo Identify the dead i|H>ak of the itffoctlon nf the living, ltut n few years pass away, sml the polished surface of tbe marble or granite grows dim; the action of tlie element-! upon Uio stone bus left the letters scarcely dooyptiornble. The once elegant monument no longer attracts the eye with It* beauty, but seems to speak to us of decay as much an Ibo dead whose resting place It marks.

Hut Uiis need no longer he so. A n Tint i mention, by an old innrlile worker, not only gives tin power to restore uinihlu or granite tu Its oilgiunl (icnuly, but furnishes a preservative agenl which resists the offset' of erjiosiire and time. Rureli Ibis is a most useful Invention. It Is keeping pace with the progress Sf ths ago. As education is diffused and asthciic eultiire is developed, there li an Inen'ailng love fm the lieaullfiil In art. The avenue* of modern grave yards are art galleries. Here we find the highest triumphs in monumental sculpture. The modern sculptor Is not merely nblo to shape nstono snd rut an Inscription, but Is an artist, and monuments are no longer mere block* of stone marking the resting place* of tbe dead, hut works of art milking the cemetery as attractive lo tho lour of the beautiful as it Is to the melancholy and mcdltatim. Surely, then, this Invention, which not only restores the faded and timu worn marble to II-, original bcauly, but pro serves that beauty from the further ravages of lime and the element.-, must he balled by all with delight. It Is now possible to preserve the lieautv of our cemeteries; to restore the old and black- ened tombstones to their Ins! lustre, No longer

(From the Overland Muntlily.) Patty stood on the platform at the de-

pot, the solitary piuHjitiger dropped from the cars as they went rattling by; nobody came to meet her. School Director Pen- ny wan taking a quiet game of euchre at Wllson'g aaloon; Whapny was "tendln' a burryen," for be was also coroner and undertaker, and Sharp was dead drunk at his office in the village. It was a sultry September afternoon, toward the com- mencement of the autumn term; and the young teacher, endowed with a second- grade certificate, and a good degree of pluck, had travelled 140 miles to her destination. The yellow dust lay on the un- planked sidewalk tike a sift of Indian meal, and the parched leaves threw their skeleton sha'dows over It, hopeless of moisture; the wry air seemed to come In pilottnting grasps over the Inhospitable looking brown hills, and n wretched sense of inactivity pervaded, benumbing alike to soul and body.

Patty roused herself from its Influence. Is there no conveyance into the village?"

queried she of the lantern-Jawed mau, who stood watching her small trunk with an air of appropriation.

"O, yeH'm—a bus." The instincts of proprietorship in this ark of refuge awoke In his soul at once. "Here, you heft up this ycre trunk; now, git to Bunkum, and tell em the new scbool-niarnYs come." This was addressed to an overgrown boy, whose (lust'covcred feet suggested buck- skin li-i.n■.. '

You bet, I ain't a-goln' there," waa the Instant rejoinder, accompanied with a twirl of his thumb to his nose,

Jehu looked at Patty, and said, with a chuckle: "He's one of your scholars. Ills folks raises garden-aass for the hull neighborhood, an' he peddles It raound."

Patty smiled. She began to think sass was cheap iu Uluc-nose' Canon. Rut she felt like crying.

"Lots more out o' the same bale," said the driver, encouraged to loquacity by the smllo. "You'll be a ruipercr school-marm than we've had yet, ef you can get along with them youug varmints. We've tried men, an' we've tried gals—married women) nn" old maids, but they lialu't nono of 'cm conquered, specially the boys. They're a towerln* set; and the gals alu't much better. Ef you ever broke a colt, you'll know how 'tis yourself."

A faint, little "Ah, Indeed!" checked further remark. The coach—a sepulchral looking concern, driven at a hcarsc-llke pace, and smelling like a comu—contained bealde herself two other passengers. One of them volunteered the observation that "this here teom was fetched across the plains In '49, and was Just as good as uew yet." The other, she mentally character, lied In one word, "Pike," as the driver, shutting the door', to keck out the stifling dust, said, "Them's the store-keeper an' the ditch superintendent. Gents, make your manners to the lady."

"Pleasant day, miss," ventured Pike. "Warm tho," the storekeeper supple-

mented, "going to the hotel?" queried the first. "Wilson's the best," chimed in the oth-

er. "Fleas at Wilson's and —and bugs.'

Pike brought this out with a triumphant Intonation which made the vexed little teacher crawl all over, aud convinced her that he had an iutcrcst in the opposition hotel.

"That's nothing," said Cheep, the storekeeper-: "have "em at the doctor's too an' you'll allow she's a housc-keeper."

An animated discussion ensued between the two regarding the doctor's wife, to which Patty listened In slleuce.

The hotel was soon reached. It was a dingy monstrosity, which, for economy' sake, had been whitewashed at an earlier day, and now was shedding Iu 'skin In crisp little flakes, which, falling, left bare spots here and there aud exposed a slck- looklng frout, suggestive of an eruptive disease. Over the doorway hung a tat- nii'il wreath, which had beeu nsed as a decoration during the preceding Christ* mas; but which now brought the unpleasant idea to Patty of the holidays having scabbed over, the dry circlet being saved to vaccinate the next seasou of festivity. The windows were occupied by women and children, attracted by the arrival of "great forty-niner"—the name bestowed by Its proud owner upon the "bus and painted In glaring letters upon Its aloe.

A group of men with hands In their pocket*, lounged round the entrance, with an air of nothlng-to-do-ncss not at all calculated to Impress a strauger with the advantage of Dlue-nose Canon as a place of business. Patty had the satisfaction of hearing Cheep Inform oue that "you'd And that'un a stuck-upper; sec If you didn't."

'Turned up her nose at both of us," added like.

"There ain't much of it to turn up," said Hob Ludlow—a six foot loafer, loung- ing out of the hotel bar-room, and Joining the group.

How hot and Irritated, and uncomforta- ble, Patty felt! Outwardly she was serene; as the landlord—a one-eyed man, with a bald head and salmon-colored whiskers- advanced to meet her, and with a crush- lug grusp, shook her little hand till It ach- ed ; and with his eye kept single to the main chance, gushed over with a IKIISUT- ous, "You'uus Is welcome; hope you're peart and hearty, marra."

Usheriug her up a flight of long stairs, at the bead of which stood a dingy table tilled with candlesticks, yet smirched with

case ; Didn't never tend one of 'em did •e? Kinder windlu'-sheety they are; but

Either," replied Patty. "I am partli ular about the room being airy and clean only."

"As If they wcru't nil that, In my house, observed he with stunning emphasis o the persoual pronoun.

It was a very small room, at tho end of a long entry ou the second floor, ucrtnea- atcd with dining room smells, the predom- inating odor at present being that of cod- flsh balls. Patty distinctly heard the six ale of their frying. "I never can endure this," thought she; "and that man with one eye Is dreadful. Its expression Is di- abolical. But, oh dear I I wonder where wo 'uus will And water In this inland Sa- hara?" She looked round for a bell-pull. That convenience was lacking; but a small hand-bell stood on the table, which served for wash-stand, also. Patty rang It re- peatedly, before a 12-year boy aunounced himself by opening the door, without knocking. Momentary astonishment at the intrusion gave wiy to Indignation, as ho said ;—

"I*ook a-here, stranger 1 don't you lie ringlu' that bell fur ine all the time. I ken Jlst toll you, It won't fetch inc. I dou't get 'nuf salary here to come at cvrybody's beck 'an call."

"Sol for Jimeph, If he know* It— Not for Jo 1"

"Of all the Impudence I over hcsrtl!" soinoqulted Patty. "That little wretch must belong to the sass-petldlliig family. Woudcr how many more of them there are? Well, I mustBUcceed here; and 'conquer-

Before she had completed her toilet, the doctor's wife was announce.1; and "Just let ine come right up where you are," was followed by her unceremonious entry Into her chamber. The young girl blushed with vexation. This Intrusion upon her personal reticence, Patty felt to be 111- bred and presuming; and she encountered the keen and Inquisitive glance of Mrs. Randal with a dignity bordering on hau- teur. The little woman waa not at all confused by it.

"lfayther taken aback, air you, Slater Dree, by not beln' quite ready to see me? Rut It's no matter. You needn't apologize. I don't mind—Just go on with jour urea- MIII' and I'll look over these things In your trunk." We haven't had the fall fashions up here yet, and it will be quite a treat."

Patty regarded her with open-eyed astonishment, as she deliberately proceeded to uufold her best dress, carefully laid on top of those more worn.

Now that's right pretty," said she shaking It out. "Ruffles seem to be going out—I see you've got this made with folds. The material's nice too. How much was It a yard? More'n four bits, I reckon. ' Talu't much worth while to bring good clothes up here this time o' year, when the dust Is so deep. Who made It for you? We haven't got a flrst-class dress maker here; and shell lie glad of the chance lo see your things. If I may be so bold, what do they charge for such a dress In "Frisco?"

The voluble visitor took breath, waiting a reply to her questions, meanwhile miming her band down to the bottom of the trunk, and bringing up a photograph In a morocco case. "Ah! who is here! Have we a beau dowu to the 'Bay?" she playfully said, with a sinister wink of her wicked gray eyes, proceeding to unclasp the case.

Patty sprang, and snatched it from her. Pardou me, luodame! You take liber-

ties." Fatal, error I The poor child did not

know that to avoid the odium of'stuck- up," she must lay bare to prying eyes the whole of her worldly eflccts. She did not know that she would be "talked about," If she was supposed to have even the likeness of a yong man who was not an acknowledged lover. "And of course It was her beau," said Mrs. llandal, expatiat- ing ou the Indignity of having been requested to wait in the parlor till tho minx had finished dressing, when she would be ready to receive calls.

' 'Such hoity-toity high aud mightinesses from a schoohuann!" said exasperated Mrs. Randall, relating her visit at the sewing-circle, that evening.

"She'll be clearly unpopular—that's what she will," chimed In Sister Silver- thorn.

"I hearshchos beeu tuk to Driscol's to board—a great come-down for Mrs. Driscol, for she's one of your high-flyers, too."

"I'm Just dying to sec that organdy," said Mrs. Newton—the acknowledged leader of fashion lu the village—"for I want patterns; and I'm bound to sec how her dresses are trimmed.

"She hasn't got many, I can tell you, then," retorted Sister Randal, with a sneer. . The entrance of Mrs. Driscol prevented further remark, for she was one of the women whose presence repressed gossip, and whose subjects of conversation never degenerated Into ungenerous i»«*wonal- ltles.

Perhaps some excuse was to be msde Tor Mrs. Randal, lu the fact that she was nn early Callfl <raian. There Is an assump- tion about certain of this class which Is simply ridiculous. They appropriated whole towns as family lots, because in early times they were the first-comers. They pry Into the history of each subsequent arrival with the pertinacity of re- lationship, and with not a tithe of the forbearance exercised toward those of kindred blood. They remember with accuracy the time that Mrs. Croesua, now rolling lu money, took in waBhtng. They were Intimately acquatuted with the honorable member of the Legislature from "our couutry" when he was unblessed with a second shirt. They can give the records of lamllies who came over the plains, or across the Isthmus, la '49, now affluent, who had then precious little to do with. They will regale you with experiences of their own, Incident to all pioneer civilization, with the relish and gusto of Individual approprlatlvcneas of all the hardships encountered on the Pacific slope —that being tho wholesale term tor every little mining town In the country. The 'aclflc slope Is hurled at every stranger .ho comes, as If It was a chunk of solid

gold. All Its frulta are applea from the gardens of Hesperides. lta honey IB sweeter than that of Mount Hybla. The native wines of the Pacific slope, sir, are fit fermentations for the gods; and lta grain-corps will store the granaries of the world. The crystals or California out- vie In splendor the diamonds of Golconda, and tho bark of the big trees has been heard all over creation. The golden waters of Shllon's river are not to be compared to the muddy depths of the Sacramento, aud the "narrow" gauge leading to the pearl gnten of the Eternal city Is a mere myth to tho wonderful real- ities of the Iron highway termination on the Pacific slope. "Let me tell you, sir," Mrs. Sllverthnni's husband was wont to say, "that God put the flnlshlu' touch on this ycre great plan o* creation o' Hls'n when He made Callforny. Ef ever you're favored to git to Yose-mite and the Gey- sers, you'll find the Btunendlousness ol the flust only equaled by the brilcanest or the t'other. Wo don't lack for nothln', 'thout It's calainns-root; an', as for fires, why, we've Phoenixed-out o' three o' them an' made lye o' tho ashes. Tell ye, slrkng- cr, this yore's a great country."

There is another class, not simply dealing iu laughable rhodomontade, but given to the drearier and darker task of resuscit- ating from tho past errors which have been amended, slus which have been repented off. They will board up secrets and spring them at Inopportune seasons upon those who have, in aU sincerity, long since eschewed the short-comings of those lawless days. They will hint of peccadillos Indulged In quite at variance with the staid respectability of husbands and fathers of families. They will hunt up preposterous accusations, and poison witn wicked menace those who have well- nigh lived down the results of some sudden temptation. If success has crowned hard years of toll and struggle, they are ungenerous in their memory of the parsl- raouy which poverty compelled, and sneer at the exhibition of refined tastes and higher culture, cither Ignorant or forgetful of the fact that it Is Iniimsslblo to In- dulge aesthetic longings In the midst of scant pecuniary resources, and so Mrs. Randal, feeling herself snubbed by Miss Putty Dree, was hard on tho young teacher. A touch of gall was added to her bit- terness, also, from the fact thatsho had— after many years of small speculations and rigid stinginess—with a fatal blunder worthy of a man, Invested her savings In wild-cat stocks and lost; since when she seemed harder and sharper than ever.

The sewing -circle had been vapid of late; but this evening Patty's ears must have burned, If Bhe had not, In happy un- consciousness, been resting hcrweariness In Mrs. Driscol's neat, little spare room, where between the lavcudencented sheets, she reposed—a perfect picture, with her [iretty, plump arms and swelling bosom ■air hidden by the auburn hair tressed

over them, and her eyes closed in serene sleep i a healthful and lovely imuge of mat.

to leave the school-housc key with Miss Dree, In order that she might make some re-arrange me ut in chairs and benches, preparatory to Its opening, taking occasion to present a few luscious pears and a pretty boquet, which Patty received with smiles and blushes.

I don't know how you' will succeed,' he said. "There has always batn trouble In

r district. The boys, especially, are unruly. I am uot on the committee this year,bu t shall be glad to offer you any assistance. My library la quite at your disposal.' Said library consisted of a dic- tionary, two cook books, some Methodist hymn-books, and several bound volumes or "The Ladles Repository." .

'Has the school a library?' fucstiouud Patty, at the same time thanking hltn cordially. '

Whapay was announced before Doctor Randal answered. 'How do, Doc? How air you, Miss Dree?—queer name, that o' yourn. Reckon you'll change It one o' these daya. Our teachers ifxMt always gits married. I told Sharp he oughtar a gone and met you. But Sharp ain't strong; he waa a lyin' down; hauksun- stroke or anthln'—leastways, he warn't

cry well. I hain't fetched no flowers, like Randal, there. He's got a garden, and ken do them things. But Jtere's somcthln' '11 come handy'—and he handed her a bundle of thin manzaulta brunches, knotty and uneven. You'd better put one o' them In soak for Hazen Sims; he's the worst boy lu thla town; you can't manage him nohow. Why, the last teacher we had licked him about every day.'

'The unfeeling brute!' said Patty, with kindling eye and flushed cheeks. 'Keep your switches, Mr. Whapsy; I shall never use them on one of the children.'

Whapsy burst into a coarse laugh. That's a good one,' said he. 'Children!

why Haxeu Sims aud half a doxen more o' them boys Is a'most growu men.*

'Then certainly 1 should not attempt to whip them.'

■Well, not exactly, mebbe; but jlat crack their knuckles, or hit 'em a rap on ihe cars.'

Patty, utterly disgusted, and wondering whether the other directors were aa Illit- erate and unfeeling, was about asking to be excused, when a bang at the door was followed by the entrance of the Imp or the hotel, carrying her forgotten satchel. 'Gosh! but aint i be fellows at Barnutn's had fun over them curls,' he exclalned^ts ho swung the bag toward her. 'I Jlat snatched 'ein an' run, an' I want two bits fur my trouble. Here they be,' he added, holding Patty's unfortunate "front locks," which had been nicely crbnped In San Francisco, In his hand; 'but yon don't git 'cm, you bet, till you fork over.'

A sense of the ludicrous overcame the rising temper of the lm \v teacher, and she burst into a tremulous laugh Just verging Into tears.

Take that fur your Impudence;" and Whapsy's heavy palm rang In red beat ou the brown cheek of the boy, who retreat- ed In haste, screaming, "you darned old Methodist corpse-washer! I'll git even with you yet; see if I don't."

Down to the hotel he started forthwith, the tingling smart on his cheek addiug to the rage In his heart. He met NedBurris, a shock-headed youngster, ripe for any mischief, and Swan Peak, a weak eyed and weaker-brained scamp, whoae thiev- ish propensities had gained him the title of "Magpie," In the village.

"Look a-bcre, fellows I I'll tell you what -that damed old eekoot muna1* n ma-

lar stunner, an' ef we git the whip-hand o' her, Its time *r* liegua. I've bin sUpped fur her a'ready, an' blame ef I'm going to put up with lichens frum any of "em."

"Why, did she cuff yer?" questioned Ned. ''Seems to ine, she's too small to Aght like that."

"No, she didn't you bet! but old Jim WhapBy, he pitched Inter me, jlat fur tuklii' her satchel back, an' wantin' two bits. Wish I'd kep' her old carls."

The boys meant mischief. They Intend- ed to try tho very soul or the new teacher with Insubordination; and when, on the following Monday, school opened, and she came smiling In, her tidy white wrap- per knotted with a pretty blue ribbon, and a sweet-brier rose shielding lta fragrance over, those very curls, there was an ominous lull—the forerunner of a storm.

'atty was keenly Intuitive; the r.-'t the moral atmosphere charged with electricity, and knew that she muat strike first, or all would be lost. She advanced with dignity to the raised platform, where, atandlng at the teacher's desk, her eyes could com- niiind the whole school. It was a large room, over-crowded with pupils. Hard work for one woman to manage, with uncommon executive ability; laborious drudgery for the novitiate, unused to the duties and responsibilities of teaching. How la It that our country schools are so Illy regulated? Do the members of the board of education bestow their attention

schools within city limits only, that they Ignore the pressing needs of those In the unliving counties all over the state? How Is it that men llko Whapsy and Pen- ny, Ignorant of even rudimentary education, are Intrusted with the oversight of teachers, and are considered competent to criticise their methods, when they have not the first Ideaele of men tary Instruct eon?

Patty Dree had those peculiarly expressive gray eyes which could overwhelm one with shame at a glance of reproof, or melt Into that gracious and generous forgive- ness of offenses which made one her friend for life. Hut she withheld either, and fronting the rising Insubordination with steady determination, holding It In check for a season. Then tho storm broke. s pi i - balls were hurled from desk to desk; rulers played tattoo on slates; wet sponges were flung from one to another; feet were scraped on i be floor, and shrUl whistling mingled Its treble with the dying chicken agonies of the Infernal squeedunk.

"Boys!"—the voice was commanding, the Intonation liquid and sweet—"If you please, I will commence school by telling you a story."

Those rude natures were prepared for threats, entreaties, commands; nat they were taken unawares by this gracious efflorescence of good humor.

"The young gentleman will please be seated; the young ladles will close their books."

Young ladles and gentlemen I It waa a •w era In Blue-nose Canon, when they

were addressed by such respectful titles. Young vartulnls—barluuians—hoydens— were familiar enough to them. But never before had a teacher, In the best of times, called them anything but tioya and girls; more frequently, clodhoppers and dunces,

And such a story I It bore no direct reference i bat every child there knew It for a sermon of reproof—knew it for a sham- ing of Ignorance and cowardice—knew It for a triumphant vindication or ii leather's authority, and an earnest appeal to the manliness and honor of pupils. And when it was finished, and Patty said, " We will now commence a review or studies, that I may claaa you properly," all Indications of rebellion had disappeared; and the morning's work went quietly on, till tho noon- bell allowed freedom for comment, and time lo renew hostilities; for the unsub- dued dement* of mischief Mill prepond- erated ; IImen Sims leading the malcon- tents, aud the other boys clustering about lu knots, discussing the situation. Even the smallest children In school seemed aware that something out of the dally rou- tine was going on; for they forsook their play-houses under the trees, eschewed their bits of broken china, and wedged themselves Into any little open spaces left In the various closely clustering groups scattered over the plnv-groasxl, In the old-time fashion of little pitchers with very large ears.

" Ned Burrls says Hnxcn Slats is goin, to bust up this school," said little Tony Belcher, a chub-flsted youngster, whose unpleasant sniffle seemed to have been contagious, aa several little girls in the vicinity of his bench were likewise afflicted. Holly, Katy, and Nelly Babcock, trio of triplets, having twin brothers, eagerly caught at the information, and

ommunlcatcd It to other, with a pre-

undentood "something was up." Ray Berlon, a quiet, slim boy, stood

apart, and; remarked to one or other pass- lug by, that he thought that was a beaatl- fol story Miss Dree had read them; and how kind she had been not to notice their rudeness. A few of the girls listened, but the majority sought the condescending

hce. Blood sported from his lips on the dainty dress of the teacher, who lifted her hands before him In an attitude both of appeal and defence.

"Do not strike him, Mr. Whapsy. I can manage my own school."

But both antagonists were swayed by fierce passion. The hot blood of uncon-

notlce of Sims, and, without any active I trolled boyhood opposed Itself to a temper participation as yet, were ready for' which years of Indulgence had rendered allegiance to him. fcniful. Whapsy was but an enraged anl-

" She needn't thluk she's goiu' to come | ■>•!■ He threw away his little switch, It over us boys with her old stories," said and, with a double-list of Iron, beat tho he. " I shan't obey her for one: she alu't boy, and baffled his returning blows, till nothln' but a school girl herself." Miss Dree, In agony of fear and feeling,

The uproar of the morning seemed not threw her arms about Hazen, and shouted to have had any effect on Miss Dree, It was "Murder" at the top of her voice. resolved that the first act of downright, "Help—Help Mm boys! every one of disobedience was to be inaugurated by yon. I command It. He wUl be killed'' Sims; " and then, if she's goln' to hit us —"" a blow, aimed over her head, hit Kims

Doctor Randal—whose specialty was kindness to strangers, kept in perpetual check, however, by the old woman, as he Irreverently called his wife—stopped on llmlnary "If you won't tell, I will tell you hla way down town, a few mornings after, 'something," till It seemed to be generally

over the head, like Miss Grimes did, I, for one, won't stand It—who says they will?" Not a word from any one; the girls were all afraid Sims would take vengeance ou their brothers, and the smaller children itood In awe of bis overpowering

strength. Unwise Whapsy t Aaron's rod blossomed

not more speedily than that bundle of manzaulta twigs. It bad been caught Bight of by the boy at the hotel; and he had heard " the boys"—aa all grown loafers arc called in couutry towus—laughing and making game, and punning on switches, in a mysterious way, till his young soul was fired with the glory of a strategic movement against the enemy; and he had taken Sims In as an ally, well knowing he would, by Inherent force or character, as- •dim.' leadership-

One gentle female teacher had flogged the children unmercifully, aud had evcu called In Whapsy to Inflict corporal punishment on the larger buys. It waa under her regime the school had obtained Its unenviable reputation. She had been followed by a aucccseion of schoolmairas, In- capable and exasperating, sndless tolerant to the pupils than tho overbearing male tormentors they had experieued. Igno- rance and discontent bad ripened i and a new school mann was the signal for*open defiance.

The bell rang. The pupils trooped In, hot, flushed, and dusty. Patty had sprinkled the room with fresh water, and hung a few bright blossoms over maps and pictures. The green shutters were drawn together, excluding the glaring sun- light and shading and cooling the room. The subdued light seemed to add to the subdued Influence of her own quiet dignity. Nothing occurred of a disorderly character until after the ii o'clock signal for the dlsmlsaal of the primary pupils. It seemed hard to nitric the sweat demea- nor of the young girl, who was ao courteous and polite, or to break in upon the order which seemed to evolve itself from her skillful arrangement of classes and lessons.

The boy from the hotel whispered to Swan Peak, "Guess Hazen's gin out a klckln' up a rumpus; an' I wouldn't keer, only I'd like to see old Whapsy paid fur that slap be gin me."

"I say, Bwany, air you on Hazen's side?" I hain't on nobody's side. I go fur

plunder. Kf there's any to be had, me an' Ned's In; otherwise, I'm not".

The hour hand had reached 3 on the dial of the Yankee clock hanging over the desk. Its audible click was distinctly heard in the Intervals of examinations, as,

by ono, the names of the pupils were written in their order. The first class alono remained to bequestloned; nud Miss Dree, with an apprehensive sense of Its hitherto unmanageable character, had left it to the last! Hazen Sims waa the hesd boy, for, with unconquerable energy, lie maintained the first place In every department or Niuti.-. «H well as .In every con- ceivable plan or mischief. He was born to bo a leader, cither for good or evil, and Miss Dree felt that to-day might possibly be the turning point of his life. She had heard much of him which she wished she had not, for she liked him In spite of bis defiant manner; and all that had been said of him revealed no mean or sordid trait. Of his private lifo nobody seemed to know much. The death of his mother lm;l left him the sole care of one little sister; and many a boy bore a black eye for teazlng little Susie, many another was lu high favor with this despotic Mogul for sundry kindnesses bestowed on the little three- year old toddler—left for safe-keeping with an old colored woman during the boy's absence at school. Aunt Rachel stood up resolutely for Hazen. " Call him the wust boy in town?" she said indignantly. " Kf he Is, honey, he's ben made so by be- In' the wust treated. Ills mammy could tell o' many a meal did without that yen- chile, all on account o' her an' Susie. An' when myoleman ink sick wt' the rheuma- tls that crctur Jlat toted every pall o' water an' stick o" wood for me In the rainy season. I hope to massy, that gal won't go to take his character on hearsay. I tell yer, honey, that Whapsy used to be a overseer when I lived down lu Georgy, an' he Jlst bankers to flog Massa Hazen. Don't yon believe nothiu' he snvs *bout him."

It is probable no more trouble would have fallen to the lot of Miss Dree, In her management, than Is usual In ungraded and mixed schools, but for the interfer- ence1 of Whapsy, who had all the vigilance, but none of the skill, of a detective. By some means he had received an Intimation that the boys were going to make Blue Canon too hot to hold another woman teacher; and bo resolved to be present at to-day's examination In order to strike terror Into the souls of the children, who cordially detested him. Ills peculiar forte of exposing their weaknesses before strangers, had won for him various sobri- quets of ridicule and contempt. "Spy Whapsy," "Old Pap Whapsy," and the like, had Anally merged Into "Doady Whapsy," In allusion to his business which he pursued with no other sympathy or sense of feeling than the "defuncts"—us he called tbein—for whom he performed the last offices.

"First class for examination." The boys and girls, about cquaf In number, filed post flic teacher, and took their places, watched by the cruel eyes of Whapsy, who held a small rattan threatlngly In his hand. Instead or commencing at the head, Patty selected the middle boy of the class to answer the first question In alge- bra, passing thence downward with a difficult sum In equations, which she felt well assured the three remaining boys could not solve; and hoping the pride of success would ward off any intention there might be on the part of Sims to show contempt of her authority.

But ho was not to be thus rolled. He meant to measure bis strength with that Miss Dree. She waa only a - girl anyhow —younger by a whole year than her re- fractory pupil; and Penny and Whapsy might go to grass, settlu' up girls over blm.

Master Sims will answer the question,' said Patty repeating It slowly aud distinctly.

For a moment the boy wavered; a bright flush or gratified pride ahot across his face at the respectful manner of the young teacher. Hut the IHIVB expected fun, and the girls were ready to titter, and be knew the fate of a braggart; besides, he really wautrd to test the authority of the new school inarm.

While he tk-liberalcrt, his opportunity was lost.

"PasAU," fell from Patty's lips; and the next Txry—a lusty young butcher, with a fist like a sledge hammer—went tip head.

"You'd no right lo pass It; 1 knew il," Kim said.

"You must retrieve your mistake hy replying more promptly next time," was tie gentle rejoinder.

"Darn If I will. You let him cheat." "Master Sims will ukeliltstMt, please,"

Patty knew now the crisis had come. The sooner Itwas over the better.

A defiant "I won't," Impetuously uttered, hissed throngh the room, and hurt poor Patty like a shot.

But the attention of the school wasrlv- <J eied on Whapsy, as he sprung toward the

belligerent boy, and, without warning, hit bim a sharp cut with a ratten over the

on the temple and felled him to the ground, The purple rage of Whapsy knew no him mis. He bated the boy and would

kicked him dead; but the older boys bad responded to the teacher's call, and resolutely held him back.

Doctor Randal, who happened to be removing an old stove from an empty house In the vicinity of the school, with a view of appropriation, heard Patty's scream and the uproar and hurried In. As he entered the teacher stood over the prostrate form at the boy like a python- ess of fate, and, pointing to Whapsy, in a voice totally unlike her usually sweet tones, said, "Arrest that murderer."

He beat Sims, He's killed Hazen; he's fetched blood. Hazen didn't do nothln,' did he, Miss Dree?" Tho girls crying; the boys eager to vindicate Rims. Fright- ened at hla pale face ami death-like In-

nslblllty, Patty ran for water:"On Doc- ■r! something for the poor boy; dont

let that man escape." "No'm—no'm;" and the great boys clus-

tered around the wretch, and held nlui as in a vise while the boy from the hotel ran for an officer.'

That day was never forgotten In Bine- nose Canon. They will teU you yet of the slowly returning consciousness of Sims, and his first question of "Where's little Susie?" They will tell you of the long days of hopeless fever, and the un- tiring watch of of the gentle little teacher's mother, who catne all the way from San Francisco to nurse him. The whole town rang with the affair, and, before night, parents from the neighboring vil- lages came flocking In, who bad heard the details from their own boys and girls. Intensifying their excitement. Tar and feathers, and lynching, were freely spoken, as none too good for the miscreant; aud only Miss Dree's persuasions to the contrary saved them. He was given an hoar to leave the place, on the one condition of never returning. The horrible

Ero posit ton of nailing him up In one of hi owu coffins and burying him alive,

emanated from the little "sass" peddler. The Idea was put Into execution, BO far aa carrying him to the cars In this ghastly style. A mock funeral procession followed, with caricatures of the "great defunct," In various places ofhls career as trustee and committee-man. Tootlng- horns. tin-pans, and squedunks blended their discordance with the unearthly moanlngs of the attending crowd, and the dismal Jubilee ended by dumping the detested Whapsy, box and all, Into the bag- gage-car, with derisive epithets, shouts, and simulated tears. The Blae-nose, on the great rock-face overhanging the can-

seemed to sniffle sympathy. Before the cars wore an hour on their way, the village subsided Into lta accustoinco mon- otone.

For many days thereafter, Sims was an Invalid. But with the cooling rains of the bright November thtjw, hla atreiurth re-

ived, and leaving little Susie to the ten- :.-r i-are of.Mrs. Dree, he sought a wider

sphere of activity—educating hlmseir with the proceeds or his own labor, and, from time to time sending small remittances for this little darling of his heart.

The school progressed. Disorderly and unmanageable aa It had been, listless and Incapable as the pupils had seemed heretofore, they were electrified Into new life under tho wise and firm control of this re-

rkablc little Patty Dree. 'The best model school wo have In our

mountains, I assure you, sir," said Mr. siheri bom. "Why, sir, you jest oughter a-seen that gal a-wleldln' them boys an' gals 'thout no corporeal punishment.

Mcrr Bellachlno, who la to Berlin what Blitz Is all along shore In this country, has been astonishing the Berilners by his slelght-of-hand tricks, playing nightly to crow did houses ; and, In connection with bis art, a good story Is told. Herr B. had a great desire to become magician to the court, and In order to accomplish his wish sought an Interview with Kaiser Wllhelm. Admitted Into the Emperor's presence, he staled the object or hla visit. The Km- peror told him his desire should be granted il he could do anything at ull unusual. Thereupon he requested the Emperor to take a pen and write what he wished him to do. Kaiser Wllhelm tumid to his writing-desk, took up bis customary pen, dipped It into the Ink, and esssyed to write; but with all his force and power the |>cn could not be made to form a letter. He laid It down, and tried a second with no better effect. Her Bellachlno then aald, "Try a third, your majesty, and write, Bellachlno Is appointed court magician." The Emperor tried a third pen, and It In- stantly wrote as freely as usual; laughing, he threw It down, and assured the magician tils wish was granted.

wishes or those electing htm; but the

question of n successor to Vice President

Wilson, was fully before the people dur-

ing the fall election, and the inclinations

of the republicans or this city and dis-

trict, most assuredly WWN not In tho di-

rection of the vote of these gentlemen,

but, its to-day, overwhelmingly iu oppo-

sition to such candidacy, and their votes

were In clearest disregard of a republican

sentiment approaching unnnlnlty. ■«.■■«» m

It is HAitnt.Y CitF.niTAiiT.K to the Intel-

legence of our city, that the vote of the

three representatives to the General

Court, should be recorded on Wednesday,

in opposition to the Woman Suffrage

Dire Mr. Bacon's, was, perhaps to be

expected, but the republican party of the

Htate, by a vote nearly unanimous, has

made this proposition a pnrt of Its pint-

form, nntl we arc sorry that obligations

thus assumed, are not In good faith carried

out by IU members. Hut the world moves

and these gentlemen are more than likely

to live to see the Commonwealth take the

position now lost by their votes.

You have seen how closely be hns been closeted with Ihem from lime to time, nml ha* had IIHIII at his elbow prompting him, and from time lo time of course taking from him advice aud counsel; and he savs hi those men, "Vou may come here and lay want ynu please; you mav swear here as vou please, mid then' 1* im law iii this Coinmon- weiillh Unit will convict vou of perjurv, aud you ilo not commit perjury when you lake an oath here, although you swear to things lhat are not

ue!" 1 am bound to believe when it i* claimed ire as a proposlUon uf law,that It has been made noun to his clients. It is a proposition which p lavs down lu vou to Invalidate tlie testimony of icse' witnesses, to induce ihe committee lo think

tlial they have come here and told a lie, and liavo come and told a lletiecause Ihev were not committing perjury when they told Hint lie. If hi* client* hujl thai snino Mea in mind, it may account very ieasoiiid.li tor their story.

Iitdd on the evening of Friday, Feb.'Mtli, IfTl- And in rising lo their defense l wish it ninl.r i I thm rhe one point 1 am lo defend is their right to toil, ami tliat oniv. I am nol going to discuss (either with approval or dis- approval) Uie monililv nf tbcii political action in general. Whether, for Instance, their lioltlng was forgooil reasons tlie result of hnnorshlenniTeon. sc.Ieiitlous, or of schismatic and partisan motives, I will express no opinion oq Unit point. Or, again.

It was honest for Ihem torlreulate, as the

tlie work of certain uiimithorixi-d iuilividunli and which ran n candiilste in opposition to the Kcpuhllrnn candidate.—on that <|uestlon, also, 1 do not express any opinion.

The thing tliat 1 defend in these men isUint they nssuiued the right to vote for men other than those

_ igalnst all comers maintaining Uielr rijtht to vote as Independent freemen contrary to tlie decisions of a party caucus Iftlicysec lit, —In short their "divine rig'bt of" bolting. These citizen* did maintain tliat rlghL. They did bolt. They stood right nobly by their privilege. We need to know the facts to appreciate how completely UM'V showed llieirhidr|ieml- enec of caucus rule. There bus been nothing like It In Uils town lielbre. Home of us, indeed, in a ijuli'i aud miHiest vort of way, have "seratehed" a name or two which our Judgments did not approve, and have gone to the ballot box voting by conscience an.l inanlnsnl rather Uiun caucus die. Mtlon, heretofore. We singly dared to bolt. But thin was a wholesale organized bolt, a del I Iterate and planned ileclaratlim of independence of party decisions. There Is nothing doubtful about this action. It was a square bolt from a fair, full, em- plialic caucus. If ever caucus was binding this one was. It was duly called by the right" ' - thorlty.

her youth, and something more than four years ago it Isoname evident tliat this dreadrul dlseaso had marked her for Its victim. She was given up to die by all of her physicians, when she heard of Ihe new system known as the "Scientific practice," nnd like most persons in that extremity, she

willing to try the experiment, and, to the sur prise of all, she wosqnirkly restored to lier usual health. Her husband, who was then in trade In Lynn, left his business and studied the practice, and came lo Lawrence nearly three years ago and

■i up business as a practicing physician. Previous to her death Mrs. Stanley often re-

murkod, that whatever good her husband may ilone to others, she believed he bad studied

Ids practice in order to take care of her In her last Illness. For, whenever everything else failed her his treatment always seemed to revive her.

Although of delicate health during her residence in Lawrence, she was a very active woman in her domestic duties nt home; In the church nf which

a member, and In religious work goner, ally, for which she had a special fondness, something over six months ago, however, It became evident that she was again sinking under the same fatal disease, and altltougfa slie rallied so aa to vis- It her home , In anntlier part of Uie State, at Thanksgiving time, she returned soon after lo take her bod, where she lingered, nn Indefinite sufferer until she painfully fell asleep In death on Wednes.

Opportunity will be given to her Lawrence friends to view tier remains at Ihe house, W3 Com

Modern "Crillciem." . and eaplratlona that alone dignify hla ex- 1 * — latenre,—howeeer nicknamed practical,—

Tbc Toledo Blade tbua revela In the la really ihe practicality of the man who realm of modern "criticism." The eflbrt cuU down the tree, the more conveulentlj Illustrate! the admirable adaptation of I to gather the fruit. Belter any perils of thin noble art to elucidating productions J shipwreck, than no eight of the sea -. better of the humblest character. Rcadeni who any strain and peril lu the ascent, that no carefully follow this mauler in his analy- HIM of "Jack and i Jill" will readily perceive what a wonderful thing modem "criticism" la:

"Jack and GUI won! up ihe hill. To ml a pall of water;

.lark Ml down ami broke hi* crown, And <.HI came tumbling altar."

In conducting a criticism of this beautiful poem we shall Aral attend to what may be called the rythmlcal and dynamical qualities of the verse. Observe the perfect measure—

-Jack—and tiill—went up the hill." The first part of the first foot la lacking,

but i liiif is fully compensated In the next verse, which Is bypercatalcctlc—

"To net—a pall—of wat—er." The er, Is this Instance, would exactly

till the (incomplete foot of the flrst verse, thus producing a grand Iambic .dimeter, and leaving the second verse a delightful trlpody.

The next two verses display the Hame wonderful poetic structure—

Jack-fell down-and broke—hla crown. Alifl 11 ill .-anii' lumh—ling nil •■■.

Observe the pleasing and highly musical effect produced by the addition of the fractional foot, er—

Ami i i ill ';uiii' timilt 11IIK an- er.

!.. i us now turn our attention to what are really the esseutlal elements of poetry —the nature of the thought and the quality of the sentiment. First, the thought. All true |...cirv Is highly Imaginative. This Is highly imaginative. Jack and GUI went up the hill to get a pall of water. The poet Imagined they did, and in this consists, very largely. Its poetry. Again, Jack didn't fall down and break his crown, and <illl didn't come tumbling after. The poet simply Imagined all this, arid banco It Is all the more poetic. Again, this is an upward flight of Imagination ; Jack and (.ill went w/i the hill. They also went up to get water, which makes the conception still more striking. It would linve been commonplace and malter-of-fic; to go down the hill for water.

Notice that In the next line It Is not the Imagination that falls but Jack—Jack fell down. Notice, too, the result, lie did not break the connection of the story ; he did not even break the flight of the poet's fancy; he simply broke his crown. We may suppose It was afterward repaired. We have as good right to suppose this as Hie poet hud to Imagine It at ull. And now the final catastrophe—

"And * * 111 came tunili line after." This Is perfectly harmonious. We

should naturally have expected It. We may suppose that dill was leaning on Jack, and that, therefore, when Jack fell, (till, by necessity, went tumbling after; or we may suppose that (ifll loved Jack more than we can tell, and that, when she saw him fall and break Ids crown. In n fit of sheer desperation she threw herself after hliu. Hither hypothesis would fully account for the facts, but I am Inclined to accept the latter, It being the more poetic mid more thoroughly consonant with the pathetic nature of the scene.

I jwtl) . let us study the sentiment- - ".luck, ami (iltl went up the hill."

Here, we sec that Jack and dill v industrious. It requires an eflbrt to go up hill. This was probably a long, Itfl hill. At any rule we may suppose 11 was. If It was, It would require all Hie more " fort to go up It. We have no evldc that Jack iin.l Hill repined. It Is not said that they went up the hill under pro* lest. They appear lo have gone up cheer fully; and what a lesson of cheerful In- dustry Is here taught us i The objl their going up the hill was to get a pull of water. What they wanted to do with water Is a matter of mere conjecture. 1 have sometimes thought that they wuuted It to drink, and have again supposed thut they were getting It for a sick companion

Kltlier purpose would have been praise* worthy. It is not stated what became of the water when they fell down. Perhaps It Is not known. I'osslbly, In the general overturn, It was spilled—hut lids would detract nothing from the honor due to them for going after It.

The misfortune which overtook Jack and i.ill Is singularly impressive. It shown the uncertainly of all things earthly. Quietly returning down the hill, bear Ing the pall of water nnd suspecting no evil, suddenly they fell. It Is not even stated that a serpent tempted them. It Is not even stated that they slipped. The record is simply that they fell; we can only Imagine the cause and say lo our own hearts, What a (kill

■nlcr to escape the possible delays, contusions, and collisions of the busy streets and beneath the open aky, will And much sympathy from Macdonald. He believes In freedom, variety, conflict, and strain. Han In his eyes is no less than archangel ruined, even Id hia worst estate, and but little lower than the angels in his best. His theology, if it is vague, is full of great shadows and glorious lights, that show how rich and various and complex he feels life to be. But in truth, religion and life are one and the same thing to him. All his week-days arc Sundays, and his Sabbaths working-days.

Macdonald Is a full-fledged poet, of strong pinion, who can face the snn, and then descend and brood over the humblest wants and sorrows of men with a dove's bosom. He has the greatest delicacy of fancy with the greatest vigor of Imagii tlon. He is a dramatist, too, who can give the most vivid individuality to char- acters conceived with rare originality. Hut ull his powers of mind and heart arc concent rated to the service of humanity. Ills soul Is ever hearing the still, sad music of human sorrow and shut. The sea and the shore, and the hum and roar of the city, talk only one language; and It Is man's claim on niau as the children of the holy, loving, all-blessed and all-blessing Cod. To save man from his own Igno-

. blindness, exposure, and folly: make him enter Into his rich herltagt life and peace and gladness,—this Is the task all his writings seem to have proposed to him. And he carries forward this great religious purpose '•> such a fresh, unconventional wuy, so wholly without clerical pretension, priestly arrogance, or pulpit phraseology, that his readers do not i.uspect Hint they are being schooled by a solemn teacher, or visited by a sharp In julsttor, or pierced by a prophet's tongue. He is so in.id and free aud fearless, that the widest minds and hearts find his horizon stretching beyond them. Now simple and plain, now complex and rich with Ideas and Illustrations, master of the speech of the peasant and of the poet and and sage, learned and painstaking, profuse and off-hand, mystic and weird, direct and transparent, his genius has but one permanent quality,—spiritual elevation and religious Insight and Influence. A bahy-soug, a fairy-tale, David Klglnbrod's prayer, Robert Falconer's struggles,—ull varied and unlike in a thousand charms,— are one in their deep piety, ami sense of the dlvlne-hmnun In God, and the celestlal- tcrrcslral in man's present state.—tier.

To begin with, we may doubt the pos. itlity of making any accurate count ol

the number of ovlsacs In Ihe ovaries, or of affirming that no new ones make their appearance out of minute genus or cell lu the course of the life of the hen.

In the next place, such a limitation must have reference to the actual constitution of the foul, and this either in Ita wlltlortainecondltlon. Iftothe former, the number of ovlsacs, even If definitely ascertained, can have no connection whatever with the real habit of the hen, since she lays In a wild state only as many eggs

The Ilrltfsh Mcdleut Journal calls attention to (be mcu.iurcs recommended by the Council of Hygiene of Bordeaux, for the belter protection of people against the dangers of hydroptioblu. It Is well known that the madness or dogs has a period which Is premonitory und harmless. If these periods were generally known, Ihe ■ logs could be put out of the way before they become dangerous. On this suhjeil the Council of Hygiene has issued the fol fowlng Instructions:—

"A short lime, sometimes two days, after mildness has seised a dog. It creates symptom! lu the anlmiil which It Is Indis- pensable to recogulxe.

There is agitation and restless- ness, aud the dog turns himself continual- ly in his kennel, if he lie at liberty, he goes and comes, and seems lobe seeking something; then he remains motlonh as If waiting; then starts, bites the nlr, as If lie would catch a fly, and dnslics himself howling unil burking against the i " The voice of his master dissipates l hallucinations ; the dog obeys, but sin with hesitation, M If with regret.

The Boetop .Medical and Surgical Jour- nal suggests that this advice be Insi at least once a year lu the public papers. It would also sci'iii particularly desirable and practicable that these rules should be printed on the buck of the notices ami receipts for dog-lnxes. These excellent

■ measures ought to be generally adopted.

SAVK Yorii MASirna.—A correspondent of the Cincinnati Times and Chronicle writes: "I am an okl man. Was born In a laud where schools: were few and furbe- tween, so 1 was not brought up ut the feet of Gamaliel, neither have I read Urcelcy's books on Agriculture. What I have learned I have studied from the field of Nature. Young men, I write to you. Take It for what It Is worth.

First, all lands produce their own manures If farmed right. The best of luud may lie made worthless by bad farming, and any laud can be Improved every year. The sol) Is made or decayed matter, and this it Is necessary to renew. Some men object to stable manure liecause It brings weeds. I don't care If they are up to your horse's back; turn them under with a heavy plow, and a good crop oT grain may be looked for, as the land will be Improved. You may turn under some decayed matter. Turn It deep—the deeper tho better. The drouth will not hurt your crops, for the ground will hold moisture. My father made, us wait - month for dry weather In the spring bnni off the ground for the plow, but the fact was the grouud Itself was burned,

burn anything you can plow under. Had use Is made of a Are on a farm. Don't bum a grub, fodder straw, weeds, nor any vegetable matter. Haul it all to some Rlitcc on your farm. Let It rot there, and

With most of us the value of the apple as an article of food Is ureatly underrated. Besides containing a large amount of sugar, mucilage, and other nutritive matter, apples contain vegetable acids, aromatic i|!i:iiin. ■■. etc.. which act powerfully In the capacity of refrigerants, tonics, anti- septics; and, freely used at the season of mellow ripeness, they prevent deldlity, Indigestion, and avert, without doubt, many of the "Ills which flesh la heir to." The operatives of Cornwall consider ripe apples nearly as nourishing as bread, aud far more BO than potatoes. In the year 1801—which was a year of much scarcity —apples, Instead of being converted into cider, were sold to the poor; und the laborers asserted that they could "stand their work" on baked applea without meat; whereas potato diet rcqul meat or other substantial nutriment. 'The French and Oennana use apples extensively. The laborers depend upon them as an article of food, and frequently make a dinner of sliced apples und bread. There Is no food cooked In so many different ways lu our country as apples; nor Is there any fruit the value of which an article of nutriment. Is as great nnd little upprcchitcd.

rpHfl AMERICAN Steam Printing Offlee. L UEO. S. MKUMILL A CatMâsa, Pine Job

Printer*, Post OMoe Block. The nicer qualities of printing a specially.

A sleigh ride, a dance, urn I a supper! The nicest and ihc liHiidsomest aiau In the whole world hy my side I a pair of loving hearts kct-plDg time to lite music of the hells: Tho great wide snow clod lields stretched out before us, and the full moon

rhcad. What if It was cold, fearfully coldr what was that to Harry, my Harry, and my Harry's Nell, which means me? Hadn't the dear fellow plenty of buflilo robes ami warm blankets? and hadn't mother kept the oveu fuU of bricks ever since the morning* Fie upon Jack Frost: He couldn't hurt us; and this song I kept humming over to poor lit lie mother all day. I was too happy to talk i so every time I passed hcrehalr*! stooped down aud chanted the little comforting rcfralu right into her very ear; but It hadn't the effect intended; she would worry iu spite of all I could do. Once I thought I would give op the excursion, and send word to Harry that mother was so nervous about It that I dared not go; but when I suggested this, her face brightened for a moment ; but only for a moment.

"No:" she said, "I can't bear to have you do that; Harry will be HO disappointed."

I think mother loved Hurry tjulte ns well asshedfd me; and sometimes If she had ieit 1 oTU my mother I should have been desperately Jealous.

One would have supposed from the fuss made about this ride, that my maternal parent was getting mc ready for a ride to Grcenlauds ley mountains. Such extcn* slvc preparations; a dosen or two Of bricks, a tlask of brandy, and I verily believe that every flannel petticoat there was In the house was produced and toast- ed for mc to wear on that occasion."

How in the world mother, do you expect me to dance with all this rigging on?" I cried In despair, as the Unishlng touch was put to my evening toilet. I am not very tall, not so tall Indeed as I should like to be; but an Harry always Insisted that I suited him to a dot I tried to be satlsned with my limited numlicrof Inch- es; but In this rig, layer on layer of un- derclothing, oh; horror of horrors, I looked like an animated churn. "But mother, I am really not comfortable with all these clothes," I Insisted. Mother was Inexo- rable. In rain I argued that all the girls would be tastefully attired for the dance. "You can leave some of these things in the dressing room," she replied. '-In- deed that will be much the best plan: then there will bo no danger ofyour tak- Ink cold when you go out again,"

Harry roared with langhter at the flgnre I cut, and mother forgot her fears for a moment and Joined lii in.

"Yea," he answered to her eager Inquir • ten about the weather.

"It Is cold, very cold; and the stillest night wo have had this winter) but It Is pleasant, and I foe) quite euro with all the fixings you have provided for our com* fort, that we shall be as warm as two bogs In a rug- It Is only eleveu miles to Meads!" [Meads was the country tav- ern where our sapper was ordered, and we were booked to dance for three or four houra.] "There we can rohnat our bricks, and Fan, you know, [Fan was Harry's big white marc] travels a mile in three minutes easy, aud' shall dlspotui of the distance in short order comlug back."

"Take good care of each other," said mother, as she saw us out of the door.

"Go to bed, aud go to sleep little mother, and don't fret about us," replied Har- ry, kissing her good bye, while I threw back a saucy answer that Harry mustn't expect much attention from mc, as It would take most of my lliuo to look out for my dry goods.

Harry tucked me hi, and cuddled me up so carefully, that it would have been Im- possible for the most acute observer to have distinguished mo from a bundle of shawls, or a firkin of butter. Fan started off at a brisk trot. The other cutters came Into line, and away wc flew over the crisp snow like a flock of birds getting ready for the summers housekeeping. I vowed that I was never so happy lu the whole course of my life. Harry declared that was his case exactly. As I peeped up at him once In a while from my fur fortress, he looked In his shaggy cap and overcoat like a big grizxly watching his opportunity to spring upon Fan's back and hug the life out of her. Wc laughed, and shouted, and sung, and before we hardly knew where wc were. Meads lights danced before our eyes, and wo had arrived at our destination.

1 was quite putzled to account for the change in Harry's manner that occurred immediately after we entered the house. As he led mc out for the first Lancers, I saw that he was pale, and apparently III at ease. In all our acquaintance I had never noticed him like this before questionings were of no avail.

"I am not sick Nell;" he cried; "enjoy yourself please, and don't take any notice of my mood; I shall get on well cuough."

"Enjoy myself with you miserable;" answered, "as If I could."

"Sidney Hart is here, I see without any lady;" he continued to take no notice of my remark. Sidney Hart had once paid mo some attention, but I never bad cared for blm, and when one evening, be drew out a plain gold ring and asked me to marry him, I was quite as much mortified as surprised. After that we had seen very little of each other, and it was a mystery to me what difference to Harry's pleasure Sidney Hart's coming could possibly make. I tried to forget the grave looks of my companion, and succeeded at last in dispelling tho cloud my lover had throwu about roc, and became tho gayest of the gay.

"How many dances shall I save you?" I inquired of my companion, aa he led me to a scat.

"One more," he replied, "any where you please; so that It Isn't the last one. I shall have to look after our rigging then, and see to Fan. She'll be uneasy as soon as she is harnessed again; so if I don't come up for you, wrap yonrsolf up carefully and come down and jump aboard."

I knew that Harry did not want me to dance with Sidney Hart, and I knew too, that he was fur too noble to "make any auch request, so I said in a whisper, pulling his curly head down to my level.

"Dear, if S. 11. asks me for s quadrille, and my card la not full, I suppose I shall have to dance with him, but you know of course that It will be no pleasure to me."

"I hope I know that," replied Harry gravely; "don't be silly, child."

The stupid coxcomb came as I expected he would, and In such scaaon that hi could make his own selection, and wi danced together coldly and decorously enough, I thought, to satisfy the moat ex- acting lover lu Christendom. Harry did not come for his quadrille nntil the acts had all formed, aud there was no room for us, then mode a hasty apology, and took mc out with him to the supnerroom. During the progress of this meal he was gloomy and abstracted, with difficulty controlling himself sufflclently to ward off observation and comment; I was too proud to ask any more questions; there was a cause for his depression, and that cause he wished to keep a secret; so he might for all me, and with this determination, I grew again gay nnd unreserved. Not that I did not care, hut I was too con- scions of mv own rights lo beg for iny honest dues, and too exhilarated with my ride, and subsequent music and dancing to feel very much depressed about anything. The festive scene came to an end at last, and a troop or merry, laughing girls prepared to attire themselves for their homeward trip. Harry sent me up a little card by a servant, on which was wrltton in pencil, "It has grown Intensely cold; be very careful that you put on all your wrapping*; I have the bricks all right. Hurry down."

I made all tho speed possible and was the first one ready. As I looked out on the long line of cutters reined up before

for any other Animal; and there sat Harry reins in hand, looking more like a bear '" in ever.

'I'll be as jolly as possible," I decided as I made my way to my scat, and tacked the heavy robes about mu, "he shan't see that I am annoyed at all at his behavior. I heard a voice say somewhere, it did not si-i-m to come from our sleigh, aa*I remembered afterwards, "Jump In," but I was so muffled up about the ears, that of course It wasn't to be wondered at if I did not hear straight.-

"Let mc drive," cried I, "please, my hands are so weR protected In these fur gloves, that I shall not feel the cold, and

will be such fun." I could not help minding that Harry did

not tack me in, or appear tJie least anxious about my comfort; and It was so cold, so calmly, piercingly, deathly cold, bat I remembered his strange mood of the evening, aud set him down as abstracted aud anxious, aud let it go at that. I took the reins from Iris hands, and off we went, the big white horse pricked up her ears, threw back her head defiantly, and struck lnto her very best trotting gait.

Fan is in for It now, Harry;" I remarked fjnily. "Why In the world didn't I drive coming up; it Is jolly."

No answer. "Harry darling, you are not vexed with

me for anything, arc you?" I asked, quite forgetful of my resolve not to question my companion on this subject, no ans-

\ I commenced to sing, -'High diddle diddle Thei-af* In the fiddle, The cow Jumped over the moon.',

Look at that big white cloud Harry- right close to the moon I It looks exactly tike a cow, and there are the boms too, as plain as boms can be. Is this the road dear?" I continued, as two long white lines stretched before mc. No answer. The horse turned to the right.

'Why don't you put your arm around my waist, you horrible old bear? Don't you sec that I am growing cold every minute?" No answer.

Well, you shall hug me, whether you waut to or not: hold up Fan, "whoa I" and the animal came to a halt. Now Sir I If you please; uubend from your stately dignity, aud embrace the mistress of your heart. If you do not, I will immediately get out of the sleigh, and ask shelter at the first farm house I come to." Not a word. I threw down the buffalo robe, seized tho left arm of my companion, and attempted to move it. It was aa firm and rigid as a slab of marble.

llarryl" I screamed, beginning to be alarmed, and then ashamed of my foolishness. The horse had started again at a furious pace; and a suddeu jolt sent the form beside me, with a hard bouud forward almost on the dasher; as the sleigh righted itself again, the form bounded back to Its scat. Then I know that the man beside me was dead. The terror, agony, Indescribable heartache of that moment, seemed past all endurance; and yet I held on to the reins believing that the horse knew her wny home and was taking us there as speedily as horse flesh could accomplish it. Dead! Harry, dead! How could It be? I grew afraid or the rigid figure beside me; my teeth chattered, and my head swam. Another lurch of the sleigh, another horrible bound and re- bound Of the corpse at my right hand, aud Hun I knew no more until I opened my eyes in the dressing room at Meads; with Harry bending over me alive and welt. - rhgrmel i I had jumped Into the wrong sleigh; aud the dead man I had so unex- pectedly taken a rido with, t..-... a -™* ui be a neighbor how must have fallen asleep after having been overcome with the cold, and in that manner met his death. The horse had stopped at the hotel, probably conscious that something was the matter; and at the turn of the road had selected the one which would bring him straight home again,

"lean never forgive myself for this evening's foolishness," almost sobbed poor Harry, as he kissed me again and again.

"Ifl had not been so surly, and wicked, you would never have made such a mistake."

One thing let me remark In closing. When I next started for home, there was an arm round my waist, every inch of tho way; aud I did not have to beg for ft cither.

ST. PATRICKS DAY.

ARNOLD'S WIFE.

It had caused a commotion In aristo- cratic circles whon It was known Hint Arnold Morford had married a nobody.

"My dear," said Mrs. Dnimo to her friend and confident, the stylish Mrs. Cleaveland, "she is really nobody. Ho picked her up In some out-of-the-way place where he was spending the summer, fishing. His sisters are perfectly wretched about It."

" I should think they might be," was the sympathising reply. " A young, handsome man, with his wealth, and position, and connectlous—why, he might have married In our very first circle;" and Mrs. Cleaveland thought of ber daughter Arabella's thin shoulders aud twenty- six summers, and noted the news upon her mental tablets as " one more chance gone."

It was not likely that so Important a Kerson aa the only son of Morford, of

lorford A Giles, Junior partner of that important firm, nephew of Giles, a bachelor, who would probably leave him ail his money, eould marry without creating some atir In bis own social circle; but when', as Mrs. Cleaveland expressed It,

he sneaked off to some obscure town to marry a raw country girl he was probably ashamed of," society was really In a flutter.

It was understood by sympathizing friends that Lucy Clifford and Leonora Maxwell, the slaters of the bridegroom,

i completely poalrated by their broth- Infatuatlou and obstinacy, although

the old gentleman declared he "did not see why the hoy should not marry aa he pleased. . There was money enough to start him in life, If bis wife had not two dreaaea to wear."

In the meantime the young bridegroom, happy and hopeful, was yet not entirely obvious of the probable commotion amongst his friends, and keenly alive to the anger of his fashionable sisters. He had won his little bride—hit wood-violet, as he called her—when boarding with ber widowed mother during a summer vacation. He loved her fondly, and ho trusted In her love, as she had yet to learn that ho waa wealthy. Yet, deeply In love as he waa, Arnold Morford was slightly troubled. He had taken his bride to New York, established her In a fashionable hotel, and after a week of quiet happiness, ventured upon the delicate ground that caused his perplexity. Seating himself upon the sofa, he drew his wife down beside him, and commenced ;—

" I want to say something to you Etllc, darling, that may hurt your feelings a little. Will you believe that 1 have a motive for doing so, and forgive mc before I speakf"

"You know I will," she said, softly, lifting htr blue eyes lovingly to his face. Bho was very pretty; a little fairy-like blonde, with ax-omplcxlon like amluattire painting, a wealth of golden curls, foci and hands like TltanhVa and a mouth like a cleft rosebud.

" It Is about our future, love. You married mc believing wc should live In a tiny house, where you should have to prepare the meals, keep the rooms In order, and look upon a silk dress as a luxury to be Indulged In but once In a lifetime. Did you not?"

She onlv looked at him with wondering eyes. " Well, Etllc, love In a collugc is not to be our lot, sweet though it Is. My father Is a man who counts his money In hundreds of thousands, my sisters are the wives of men of large wcallh, and I am nn only "son, and Junior partner In the tlnuof which my father and mother's brothers are the heads. I do not want my li" le wife to be worried with the cares of housekeeping, so 1 have taken a suite of rooms In a large boarding-house, where she will

yon uivan that'I must wear such dresses aa the ladles we see at the table?"

Exactly." And bats and cloaks such as we sec

on Broadway?", Yea." And—tho—the money?" Don't fret about that."

'I think I understand you, Arnold. You will go with me, just at flrat, will you not?"

She was a sensible little woman, and ahe let no foolish pique influence her wlille yet her great modesty was untouched by the idea of finery and fashion.

Society had calmed down somewhat after the flutter occasioned by Arnold Morfbrd's marriage, wheu again it was agitated by the Invitation issued by Mrs. Lucy Clifford for an evening party to In- troduce Mrs. Arnold Morford to her circle of friends.

Ladies who had secretly hoped to be tho bride introduced, shrugged their shoulders, and wondered If the "gawky country girl" knew how to behave herself, but prepared for the occasion, while the sisters-tn-law, In private council, agreed that " they were agrccnbly surprised at Arnold's choice." '

"Really, my dear," said Mrs. Clifford, "her trousseau Is in exqulste taste."

" And Arnold has given ber perfect jewelry."

" She la so shy and graceful, and so very pretty, that society will readily overlook any little ffaMcnerts."

" But she really has none. She Is a lady, If she was country born aud bred. Did you hear her play ?"

" Don't tell anybody; she was educated at a musical school for a music teacher, but nobody need know that."

" She never taught?" "No; Arnold found her when she was

only at homo a few weeka from school. Between you and mc, Arnold has made a better choice than any of the silly girls would havu been who Lave been trying to catch him for the past ten years."

" I was afraid he would be an old bachelor, like I'm le Giles. By the way, Ettle 'must be years younger than he Is."

"She Is seventeen." " And he thlrty^ne. Well, the dif-

ference Is on the right side. "Did you venture upon any hint about

her dress on Wednesday evening?" "Not I. Trust Arnold for that. With

her taste, and bis waeotrfairt you may be sure sue win DO appropriately dressed. I might have hinted at her wedding dress, but F am terribly afraid it was a shilling calico." .

Mentally, the ladtea con*rooeo tut they were riftttL to trust to Arnold and RtaU when the bride entered Mrs. Clifford's drawing-room. The pore blonde beauty of the winning little lady, bore wellthedresa of exquisite lace over rose-tinted white silk, while the golden hair, in soft curls, caught here and there by pearl sprays. Pearl Jewels adorned the round white arms ami throat, and caught up the costly lace bertha on the shoulders. From the tip of the white satin slipper to the snowy gloves there was no fault to And, and the favorable Impression awakened by the fair, shy face and beautiful dreas was increased by the graceful manner, the evident cultivation of mind, and the artistic musical culture of the little bride.

It was not long before the shy little •uiiiry beauty found herself fairly launch-

ed In the cream of fashionable society, and Arnold could, with a sigh of content, feel t hui. she had under her shy manner the t net of a lady, and the earnest desire to do honor to the position as a wife,

Ten yesrs passed over Ettle Morford's head before any event of more than usual interest occurred, to break upon that rare combination, a perfectly happy married

life. Two children graced her home, for Ar-

nold had long ago yielded to her desire to keep house, though he insisted upon a housekeeper; itml her sunny life had left but a few Hues of age or care upon her lovely face. The girlish contour waa gone, the shy drooping of the eyelids was long conquered 1 but the enobllng expression of maternity had replaced tbeae, and the dignity of the young matron well became the young figure.

It has long been conceded that If Mrs. Morford was not especially well versed In small talk, scandal and flirting, that she was more than usually read, and could converse easily and gracefully with men whose society was- esteemed an honor from their Intellectual acquirements oi scientific standing.

She was no pendant, and made no pre- tensions to UU-rary attainments beyond the nsual acquirements of her sex; but she read and studied intelligently, and where she found the conversation soaring beyond her compreneuHlon, could listen, and gain Information.

She was entirely happy. How many can truly say that?

Hut a blow was to come to her that was sudden and unexpected.

She was seated lu a deep window-seal, hidden by the heavy curtain*, when two gentlemen standing near, commenced a conversation that made her heart seem to atanrl at III.

"They say," said one, "that Morford and Giles will have to suspend payment."

"They suffered severely by the failure of Wlllets A Co."

"And I suspect that they suffer some from the extravagance of Arnold's wife. That woman's dreas must cost a small fortune, and the children are alwaya a mass of embroidery and finery."

" Her Jewelry would support a family." The voices dlfd away, but Ettle had

heard enough. Waa this really true? Her conscience was clear, for she knew Arnold alone wawto blame for her own and her children's expensive wardrobes. Her jewelry was always a Christmas or a birthday present from her husband, and ho knew If no others did, that It was to please htm she wore expensive toilets, when she would willingly have returned to the simple muslins snd calicoes of her girlhood.

There was a glad smile on her lips as she parted the cartnlns, and stepped Into the room.

An hour later she was In her own room with her husband, nnd throwing aside her wrappings, she made him ait beside her by a pleading—" I am not tired, and I want to talk to you."

Not looking him In hi" face she repeated the conversation she had heard, and asked i

"Is It true, Arnold?" "Thatyour extravagance has embar-

rassed us? We are in difficulties, great difficulties, but we hope to weather the storm. W lllola 1 < onipany's failure was a great blow lo us, ami wo unfortunately made aome losing Investments In the full.

Tin: STORY OF soatR HOT WATKR.-

About two liiimln.l years ago, a man, bearing the title of the Marquis of Worces- ter, waa sitting, on a cold night, In a amsll mean room, before a blazing lire. This waa tn Ireland, aud the man was a prisoner. A kettle of boiling water was on tho Are, aud he sat watching the steam, as It lifted the ltd of the kettle aud rushed ont of the nose.

He thought of the power of the steam, and wondered what would he the cftect If he were to fasten down the lid and atop up tho nose. He concluded thsl the effect would be to burst the kettle. "I much power, then," tbourjibt ho, "there must be lu steam!"

As soon aa he was let out of prison bo tried an experiment. "I have taken," he

rites, "a cannon, nnd filled It three quarters full of water, stopping firmly up both the touch-hole and the mouth, nnd, having made a good fire under It, within twenty-four hours It burst and made a great crack." After this, the marquis, contrived a rude machine, which, by the power of steam, drove up water to the height of forty feet.

About one hundred years after this, a little boy, whose name was Jsmcs Walt, and who lived iu Scotland, sst one day looking at a kettle of boiling water, and holding a spoon before the steam that rushed out of the nose. Ills aunt thought he waa Idle, and aald, "Is It not a shame for you to waste your time so?" But James was not Idle; he was thinking oi the power of steam In moving the spoon.

James grew to he a good snd gieat man, and contrived those wonderful Im- provements In the steam-engine which have made it so useful In our day.

What will not the steam-engine do! it propclls, it elevates, It lowers, It pumps, It drains, It pulls, |t drives, it blasts, It digs, It cuts, it saws, It plsnes, It bores, It blows, It forges, It hammers, It nles, |i poRabes, It rivets. It cards, It spins, It winds. It weaves, it coins, it prints; aud It does more things than I can think of.

If It could speak it might eay, ••I blow the bellows. I forge the steel;

I manage ilie mill and the mint, I hammer the ore, and turn the wheel,

And the news that you read I print." III the year 1K07, Robert Fulton,

American, put tlie first steamboat on the Hudson River, and In IHiKI a locomotive steam carriage went over a railroad It England.

And this is the story of some hot water. From so small a beginning as the steam ofa tea kettle resulted ihc steam-engine, the steam-boat, and the locomotive en* glne, by which Ihc trains or cars are moved with such speed on our railro

thut their chances of being able to bring Mae- donald here withoutJosing money, were small,

id it seemed to them thut B was hardly fair tliif! they shoo Id be obliged to pay a large Of money to enable a few intelligent persons to hear MacifHmald. As the lecturer had ban engaged, however, It was deemed l*est to bring him here, and two gentlemen belonging to the AMKUIIAH eiUlillshnieiit, undertook the re- •ponslbility.thc managers of the Church Course generously aiding them with their Intluenee, and lu every way working to promote the success

of the enterprise. This explanation is given Iwffliiec there have

been so many tauairles as to who brought Mae- donald here.

Thu audience was large, and represented the intelligence of the city. The lecture than will d.is'.rl, : ■ lie many opinions alsmt. Oeo. Mae- donald Il no orator, as thnt word Is understood. He has neither the bewltchjry of a rich voice, nor the fascination of graceful gesture; but he

omlerftil man. Few lecturers are more eilcetivc. It i* Iruo that few lecturers have such

inject. We imagine the mau who fails to be eloquent when "peaking of die genius of Burns must lie an exception to his race. But there Is something about Maedonald which few lecturers possess, and that Is thorough sincerity. He does not speak an Idle word. He will break up a sentence, retrace his steps, and think until be is right r UMT than speak what hu does not mean, and what he does nut liclicve to lie true. Perhaps it Is In this Intense earnestness: that his power lies. He does not speak for effect, and consequently his language is effective. What-

r opinions bis audience may cherish in regard to his Eiibject, they cannot fall to realize that he Is tillering his own honest opinions, and in tills age it is delightful to listen to suel

It It customary for lecturers to speak please audience*. George Mocdunnld speaks what he Ulleves to be the truth. It would be strange Indeed if such a lecturer did not please,

r people an fond of variety. Those who expected to see an ontesyhil eye in line frensy rolling," ranting about the plat-

form, were disappointed. Maedonald didn't da any such thing. He told tlie story of thu life of Burns; lolilof his wonderful genius; of his triumphs; of liftr'struggles; and in a wonderfully attractive muuner. Of the lecture itself il Is not necessary to make a report. Those who heard It do not need hi have It rehearsed to them again. Those who did not hear It are unfortunate, Ueause they missed something that was truly worth hearing. He was very happy In his selections from Burns, tptoting from some of the most tieantil'ul of his poems. We have often heard the same passages read much better than they were given by Mae- donald. He recited •• My Nannie's uwu," better than anything else. The power requisite for the proper reading of " Scots wha hue nie Wal- lace bled," Mr. Maedonald does not possess.

The same want of power was exhibited In the reading of " a Man's a Man for a'that." Mr. Mordonuld's furl.- is more In the lino of the pathetic than the grand, to which class both the poems mentioned tola**. "u wasahl have rendered the " Apostrophe to a Daisy" exquis- itely. But the reading of these poetM was simply Incidental to the lecture, and did not dc tract fn any way from the merit of tho latter. What Mr. Mncdotudd had to say m«™» ihn haractcr of Burns was what every true man

and woman has long thought about him. He urged epos those who were uncharitable *in their estimate of Burns to lie just. It is a great deal worse lo lie unjust than to ho drunk, he said. The conclusion of his lecture was a pathetic plea for justice to the gifted but nufortu- nutu'haril. The remorse of burns, said he, was latter; good and evil fought in him, and made his life unhappy. I think God let him die at thirty-seven—he was not thirty-eight— liecause he saw that he was lighting on, and could not do better, and so took him away. What came after we will leave to Hltu. A man is to lie judged by his heart; fall worst docs not perpetuate itself, for It is death; wc arc sent into the world to make the liest of ourselves. Burns, grand, proud, noble minded, full of the sense of human dignity, did that of which he was ashamed, that which he despised, and died liecause too great to live without dwelling with God and having God In Him, Is a type of all of us. We cannot reach our beM; .■annul take one foot out of the mlrf look up. As Samuel Daniel a British poet, lias said, " unless eliove hlmsell he can erect hint self how |ioor a thing Is man."

dressed the audience [in sepulchral tones, and twenty-one years old, seemed to have

a vacant stare, and almost idiotic appearance. Indeed, the woman said to the audience that the young man had no more power or discretion over himself than a boy of five years, that ■he was compelled by the spirits to uso lifm for the " good of the order," and that tho spirit- would eontlnnally keep htm in a trance If not so used. At the clone of the show the boy lighted his cigar and, with newly made friends, sauntered up the'streets. If wc were that toy

MOXI'AT. The attendance at court was large this murnlng ml Ihe audience as usual, of that class which ha

a morbid curiosity for witnessing punishment In. nicteil for crime. When the convention was

lied to order it was found that the business liere It was the 'i 1 !•-■ 11 ■■' six drunks, nnd two

other crimes. Tire drunks were disposed of in the usiiul manner, t'J *nd costs, with the exception of

■, u Iii' li are worthy of special mention. Ann Clarke Is one of a trio uf Ann Clark*, who liave a habit of coming up to tills court clutrged witti drunkenness, ;.i,.l ,,1 this Is alwny unfortunate fur the last one, as ll Is seldom re memliered that there are three nf Hum, and Uie

of all are very liable to be saddled upn the last comer. Therefore, In-fore his Honor proceeded to Indict neiitenco Ibis morning, Ann ipicsted to he heard, and humbly stated thut she hod not been before the court lor eleven months, but hail boon housekeeping In Methuen, let oft* with a nominal fine und tho cost*, Or thirty days, but, subsequently, the mittimus wa* stayed

hour, to give her a chance to cross the Sptck- et to Methuen.

Ann Euley, another female In the linblt of visiting the court, was given thirty days, hut 011 her representation that she had come iron 1 Salem only three days ago, and would return ngnlu linmedi ntely II' pemiltlod ta do so, was given till an* o'clock to leave Uie rlty.

A young man, for creating n disturbance, was asked lo pay the costs; lie refused, ami was held tu answer at the Superior Court In tiisi.

THE UKgiBL TO THK HI IO>I:KII EUIIKJIKKT.—

There wa* In tho court to-ilay, a young aud re. spec-table looking man, named Daniel Erye, barged with adultery. Ho pleaded not guilty-,

and the government not being ready to go on with the case, he was held to answer to-morrow morning In aMO. Mr. A. ll.Siiiilminnp|icnrcd lor Eiye. and sisied that his client was the victim ofa most malicious persecution, growing out or a desire on the pin 1 of the husband of the woman with whom hi* clieiii was el,.11 ;;eil wiUi having Intimacy, to procure n divorce; amlUiat his client was entirely innocent of the charge.

There has bean cons Idem hi a talk about Uils ase for some time, and last week it wa*

tliat the said Erye had elojicd, the wonisn 111 the case being Mrs. Horace L. Howe, Win of Mr. Horace L. Howe, In the furniture business ■ox street. While these rumor* we re In r tion a reporter of the1 AMKIIIIAX called up. Howe, and asked If there was any truth in Mr. Howe - uid he did not know, but hi* wife and Mr. Erye were intimate enough to Justify any iuch rumor concerning them. Following up lib enquiries, the reporter ascertained that Mr. Frye and Mrs. Howe had men seen in a saloon sex street, and » bile there the lady was beard lo say:

The truth of tltla la acnalbly felt on cuter! iijr a town after sunset, from tin- open country. In aiinahlny weather. The same, difference of temperature I* never fi-lt at the clnae of a cloudy day. Thin cause Is one of 1 tic reaaoiia why the air on a mountain top U colder that at its foot. The air on high mountain* muy be Intciine- ly i-nl.l. while a burning sun U overhead. The solar raya which, striking on the human skin are almost Intolerable, are Incom- petent to heat the air sensibly, and we have only to withdraw Into perfect shade to feel the chill of the atmosphere. Snow Is one of the mauy objects which absorb ami are warmed by the solar heat. On n siuiuy day yuu muy see the summit* of the high Alps* glistening with the water Of liquefaction, while the air above ami arouml the mountains may be many &*» graea below the freexlug pollit. The same thing happens to the snow upon your house roof. The sun plays upon It and melts It. The water trickles to the caves nml hnngs lit a drop.

Tymiall tells us, when the li'ru l.i- i lou is copious and the cold in tense, Icicles grow to all euortnoua slxe.

Mutk TWAIN's HICST.—After rvadlnB the l>< tlii.nis flir the pardon of Foster, the car hook assassin. Mark Twain jflvcs vent to his feeling* In the following strain :

The lawyers' opinions do tint disturb me, because I know that those same gentlemen could mnke as able an argument In favor of Judas lscarlot, which Is a great deal to say, for 1 never can think of Judas lscarlot without losing my temper. To my mlm! Jiitlas lscarlot was uothlng but n low. mean, premature Congressman. The attitude nf the Jury does not unsettle a body, I must admit; and It seems plain that* they would have modified their verdict to murder In the second degree if the Judge's charge had ncnnltteil It. But when 1 come to the petition of Foster's friends ami find out Foster's true character, the generous tears will flow—I cannot help It. How easy It Is to get n wrong impression of a man. I pornlrfl that from ehlhlhood up this one h.t- been a swwt, docile thing, rtill or pretty ways am) geutle Impulses, Ihe charm of the ilre- side, the a.liiilratlou of society, the Idol or the Sunday school. 1 recognise In him the dUlnest nature that ever glorillcd any mere human bring. I perceive that the sentiment wUh which he regarded teuipe i nml- was a thing that amounted to fYnntti adoration. 1 freely confess thai It wm the most natural thing In the world for sueh an organism as this to get driiuk and Insult a stranger, ami then boml his brains out with a ear-hook In-eause he did no MOM to admire It. Such Is Foster. An to think that we HUM so near losing lilm How do Me know hut that he i* rticSccmn Advent? And yet, alter all. ir the Jury had uot bOU hampered In their chob a verdict, I think I eotihl consent to lose him.

The humorist who Invented trial hy jury played n colossal, pnctlcftl joke upon Ihe world, but since we have ihe system, we ought to try to respect It. A thing which Is uot thoroughly easy lo do. when we re fleet that by coin mo mi or the law a criminal Jurv-ruai. must lie au Intellectual vacuum, altached to a melting heart and iierfcclly innearonlan Uiweht or compas- sion.

I have had no experience In making laws or amending Ihein. but still i eiiuuol dsimaaul why, when It take twelve men to IntHel the death penalty. It should take anv lea* than twelve more to undo their work. If I were a legislature, and bad fust bees eleeteil. and had not had lime 10 sell out. 1 would put the portioning and commuting power Into the hands of twelve able men iu-ic.id of dumping so huge a burden upon the shoulders of one poor mdltlon-pcrseeiUcdjiullvlilual.

"So you ant going to stay with me u whole mouth, you durllng?" und MmUl; ■ FlctchtT gave her friend a rapturous hng:' after the manner of young ladles but recently emerged from hoarding school.

"A whole mouth," replied the darling, returning the embrace with cquul fervor.

"Oh, how jolly it Is that you arc going to stay with ine a month."

"So it is, Bpletitlld; but I thought 1 never should get off. First, Kitty mu.it needs be nick for two whole weeks; i Inn. Just an I was going to write and set the day, Uncle Jacob arrived, and mamma; could not spare me. It talcca the whole! fnmlly to entertain Uncle Jacob, and It la) hard work, too, but he gave ine twenty dotlars when he went away, so I won't say anything.''

"Twenty dollars!" exclaimed Maddy, why lie's worth millions, Isn't he?" "Yes, I suppose so," answered Elile,

shrugging her shoulders; "however, if I found my clothes growlug on bushes as you do, I could afford to UeHpisc twenty dollars; as it is, I am only too thankful to get It. . It bought niy travelling dress," rihu added! glancing down complacently on her pretty gray popiiu, "and 1 could not iutvc come without It."

Well, no mutter about that, so you are here, I mean you "hall have a good time. What do you think of a sociable next Thursday night—Ht. Valentine's day, yon know. Junt a little dunce—three or Tour steps, perhaps. Ever so muuy of the girls are in town, aud my cousin Tom Is coming, and George Archer, lly the way, did you henr that Fanny Archer Is engaged?" and the girls instantly dropped Into a delightful school-girl gossip, only In- terrupted by the ringing of the dinner- bell.

The tirst few days of Elite Rrand's visit passed away pleasantly, and she wrote home glowing letters to her mother and sister, who had unselfishly deprived themselves of many a luxury, that the hard- worked little scliool-nilstrcsH might have the full enjoyment of her vacation. Yes, she was a country school-mistress, though she had left school herself less than six months before.

said Maddy one morning several days fore that eventful Thursday appointed for the party. "What are you going to wear?"

"Having seen me four or five times already In my one party drens," replied Elite, smiling, "I am convinced you know ns well as I."

"Now, Elllc, dear, that pearl-colored silk Is really very pretty, but you have worn It so many times. I f you could only afford a new oni.—a simple tarletou, or something equally inexpensive,'' suggested Miss Fletcher doubtfully.

"Can't be done, Maddy," responded Elllc, stoutly; "I have thought it over, aud A ucw evctilug dress would run away with not only my gloves and boots, which I positively must have, but with mamma'tt waterproof cloak which I have set my heart on carrying home to her."

"Well, 1 suppose you know best," replied Maddy, relinquishing tbc Idea with a sigh, "but I do want you to look your prettiest, especially ns couslnTnm will be here."

"1 iillllll Ut lOUK «v ,.. ti' I- .', llnrufcll X dou't suppose Mr. Fletcher will be particularly uffected by my prcttlncss," answered Elllc, with alight lnugh, though the color mouutcd to her forehead as she gpoke. "Unless he i- more observing In matters of dress than most gentlemen, there Is no telling but he might even prefer mo In this bluck alpaca."

"I am not sure but he really would," Maddy thought, us she uotlced the slight form set off to advantage by the close fitting plain dress, and the Hushed cheeks Just shaded by the brown curls which In the evening would be "put up" in an elab- orate chignon. "You look nice cuough In anything, Elbe," she said putting her thoughts into words; "but now I have an Idea. You have a white muslin dress, haven't ytiu?"

"Yes. I brouglst It for somo utterly unknown reason; but that is useless, for it has only one Bktrt."

"I know that, my dear; hut you reinci ber my pink silk? It Is fearfully soiled, but I am almost sure that from the two skirts you can get out enough to make a good, clean under skirt, and with your white muslin as an overdress, It will be as pretty a costume as you could wish."

"Capital," cried Kllle, warming at once into enthusiasm; "and furbishing up an old thing is so much more In my line than making up new material. Now, Maddy, you will sec what an amount of genius I will put Into this dress;" and the two girls Immediately plunged Into the mysteries of ripping, cutting and planning, which had been hitherto unknown to Maddy, at least.

"A letter for you, Miss Brand," announced Maddy, rushing Into the sewing- room the next morning, where Kllle sat surrounded by shreds or silk and patches of muslin. "Frdni somo loving youth, I should Imagine from the hand-writing," she added, Inspecting It closely.

"Give it to me, you teasing girl," said Elllc, snatching it from her; "It Is from mainmn, and she is belter than any loving youth," and she eagerly commenced reading it. But as she did so her counten- ance full.

"What Is It dear?" oaked Maddy anxiously. "She doesn't want you to come home, docs she?"

"What shall I do, Maddy?" exclaimed Elllc, In distress. "I am nearly wild. iThey have taken my school away from me, and how are we to live?"

"It Is a burning shame 1" cried Maddy with Indignant' sympathy. "Why did they do It?"

"They said I was too young," answered tbe poor little school-mis tress, bursting luto a fit of weeping which was so unusual as to alarm her friend.

I am glad of It," said Maddy, decidedly ; "you ore too young to be working In that stylo. You ought to be having a real good time instead."

"I don't mind the working a bit," sobbed Ellle; "But If I can't work, and mamma feeble, and Kitty so young and still at school, what arc we to do?" aud the sobs broke out afresh.

"Get married," answered Maddy briefly. Ellle smiled through her tears. "If I

could only marry you, you dear little comforter !" she answered hugging her friend warmly, with her cheerfulness already returning. "Well, I am not going to let this spoil my visit or the party. Mamma says so, and that she only wrote me of It so that I need not hurry back for the beginning of the term. Something will he sure to turn up before long."

"What a sunbeam you are, Elllc Brand I" remarked Maddy, affectionately; but there was an anxious pucker In her frcltid's usually smooth brow, and a care-worn look inthc clear brown eyes that limtle her uneasy.

An the days passed, and nothing did turn up, the poor child's anxiety by no means dlsmlnlshcd; but, true to her nature she went bravely on, concealing the ci that wore upon her, lest tho happiness or tbc fondly who where so kind to her should bo disturbed.

What a dear, industrious little girl, Miss Brandts!" remarked Mrs. Fletcher

day to her daughter. It Is a perfect shame site Is nhllgod to

work and slave so," replied the latter In- dignantly. "She Is always doing something for her mother, and never com- plaining of her own troubles. I wish she would marry some rich man."

"Sho would make a capital wire for Tom," remarked Mrs. Fletcher, thought- fully.-

"Tom I" exclaimed Madeline, contempt- uously. "Ho will never marry any girl unless she offers herself to him. Ellle Is a thousand times too good for hit

For all the protest, Miss Maddy hod her own secret hopes of the meeting bctweeu her Mend and her cousin, of whom,

though she constantly quarrelled with him, she was very fond and very proud.

"What on earth shall I do. Ellle?" said Madeline, breaking Into her friend's room tn the afternoon, lust as she had commenced a letter to her mother: "my sash does not match my trimming by at ieast three shades. It will Just do In the day- light, but It ts hideous by gaslight."

"How could you have made such a mistake?" asked Ellle sympathetically.

"lam sure I don't know," answered Miss Fletcher. "The truth Is, George Archer was talking to me, and I did not give my mind to it. The only way Is to buy another, but every one is busy, and I can't go myself. Just look at my hair!"

Maddy's hair would Indeed have been a spectacle of horror on the public street-, being a conglomeration of crimping pins and minute braids destined to flow forth In rippling, shining mass a few hours later, but now presenting a truly bristling and formidable surface.

"Let me go for you," said Elite, quietly putting aside her writing materials.

"Hut your letter," faintly objected Mad- dy.

"Can wait Just as well until to-morrow," replied her friend, always roady to help those in need or assistance. "Besides, my dear, I should really like to call for my picture, to-day, and there are one or two more little things which I can buy Just as well while I ara out."

"nt dear gtr], what a comfort you said Madeline, kissing her grace-

fully. "You take a load off my mind;'* t.nd so with Innumerable directions, whteh Increased to quite a considerable length her list of commissions, Ellle Issued into the already fust darkeniug streets. She was still child enough, and as she would have added, "a country girl,"to thoroughly enjoy the shop windows; and at lost her various errands being accomplished, she paused to gaze in at one which was filled with lovely hot-house flowers and floral decorations, lu the midst of which a little fountain gracefully rose, and fell, sparkling in brilliant gaslight.

"Ami to think that this perishing love- liness would pay one whole month's rent for us!" Bhe thought, bitterly; and as the reflection stung her, she turned away and moved hastily homo ward. But as she did

In came violently In contact with a young lady who was hurrying In the opposite direction, and they both suffered an Ignominious fall. Mutual apologies followed,and amid the smothered amusement of tho passers-by, Elite's dispersed par- cels were collected, restored to her, aud

once more started at a moderate pace. The incident, however, had served to turn h T mcdltlatlons Into a more cheerful strain, and she hastened back with merriment for the time uppermost.

It so happened that while Elite stood gazing In at the florist's window, Mr. Tom Fletcher stood on the florist's door- iteps gazing at her. Now, don't Imagine

that It was at all a case of love at Drat sight. On the contrary, he could not see the young lady's face; and If he thought of her at all, It was only to wonder "why girls should make guys of themselves with those shapeless waterproofs." No, the truth Is that he gazed nt her abstntct- itlly wldle hi' was making up his mind ihetlii r to go to bis aunt's house at once ir wait until evening. He had Just been

buying a huquet for his cousin, aud a box of choice flowers containing also a cord bearing the simple Inscription, "Valen- tine." which latter offering was designed ior a young muy with wnOiu ne nau "Amu on flirting terms for the last two years or

assistance of the dlntiesscd fair ones, and he was o.ie of the amused but polite by- standers who, collecting poor Elite's scattered bundles, gout her rejoicing on lior way, while he sauntered slowly home to his hotel. Arriving at his own room, he turned up the gas and proceeded to ex- amlue his offerings, while awaiting the arrival or the messenger to whom he proposed to eatrunt them.

"DoarBHle Maddy," lie soliloquized; I quite long to hear ber pert speeches

again. She la worth all the other girls or my acquaintance. And now for my valentine," he contluucd, untying the box. "If these dou't soften Miss Julia's obdur- ate heart—" Here he removed the cover, and a long whistle of astonishment Inter- rupted the current of his thought. In- stead of creamy roses, sweet-scented vio- lets, starry jessamines, stately camellas and vivid carnations, which he had seen deposited In a soft bud of moist cotton, only an hour before, there looked fear- lessly up at hi in the fresh sweet face of a young girl, with sunny brown hair waving over a bread, white forehead, and brown eyes, In which dwelt Innocence and lore, all sci forth In the soft tints or a photograph on porcelain. Elite's face looked a revelation of truth and beauty to the young man somewhat wearied of the conventional type seen among the so- called "society girls."

"Have wo n magician among us?" remarked Tom Fletcher to him self, after vainly rucking his brain to account for the astonishing transformation of a box of hot-house lit.wen Into the picture of a pretty young girl. "By Jove, I have U '." he exclaimed aloud at last. "How those two girts did go down, to bo sure 1 Well, I think I have certainly made something by the transaction, but Miss Julia must go without her valentine;" and he rose to prepare himself for evening, not by any means forgetting the picture, which he placed In a convenient position for reference on his dressing-table.

Meantime, consternation pervaded the hearts or the two girls. Fifty times did they wonder as to the how, when and where of the inystcrions transformation; and when at last those pclnts were settled there arose the more dlltlcult questions how the picture was to be recovered.

"Dou't worry, Ellle; we must just advertise, and It will be sure lo come," said Maddy at length, consoling*?.

"Yes, but the flowers will fade;" replied Kllle, with her characteristic consideration for others.

"There is no help for that,'* philosophi- cally returned Madeline; " and, since the young woman has lost her valentine, yon may as well reap the bencflt .ii'if. That pink camclla la just the thing for your hair."

Ho It came to pass that an hour or two later, when Tom Fletcher entered hut aunt's drawing-room, the first person upon whom his uyes rested was the original or tho picture which had so curiously come Into his possession, nml. as he stood under the groat chandelier, lta light brought out warmly the vivid hues or the flowers Intended fur his own holiday offering to Miss Julia Maylii'.

"Who Is that damsel, with thccamolla?' he Inquired of his cousin, as they stood chatting together, after the first greetings had been exchanged.

That is my dearest friend, Elilc Brand! and she Is Just as good as site Is pretty," answered Madeline, warmly.

If I did not know my cousin's geese are all swans, iny henrt might be In somo danger, from that description," laughed Tom.

"I wish I thought It was soft enough to be in any such danger," retorted Mad- dy; "it would be the luckiest thing in tbe world for you. But come and 1M introduced to my paragon."

"Your friend shows excellent taste In her ornaments," be remarked, as lliey made their wny toward her. "Nothing could be more becoming than these flow

clety the hours seemed literally to fly AN AFTERNOON AT NORTH away. What that gentleman thought of ANSOVER Ellle, his cousin, by the briskest flrtj or cross-quesllons, was usable to ascertain. He would not even admit that she was pretty, coolly Inquiring after one of Made- Hue's rapsodies, If she did not really think Miss Brand's eyes had A slight cast. One thing is certain; he left the houso at a late hour that night, an amused smile playing about his lips, and a very wilted rose-bud In his hand, which circumstances seemed to point to the fact or his hav Ing begged and obtained the gift of one of his own flowers.

The lost picture was duly advertised but. nothing was ever heard of It; .and although Mr. Fletcher came almost dally to see his cousin and her Mead, he did not mention it. His visits, sawaoUme, had become very pleasant to ElUe. She did not like to thlukhowpleaaanUJba-al reason to Imagine that Maddy's cousin had ever thought of her except as Maddy's friend. Even Maddy herself, anxleus as she had been about the meeting, could but confess herself disappointed with the result, as cousin Tom, though be came constantly to tho house, did so no more than was usual to him when In town, and seemed quite as well satisfied to And her alone, or even her mother, as when Elllc was present. In reality, however, this was only In appearance, for cousin Tom was more Interested In the modest little maiden than he was at first willing to admit. The perrcct simplicity and truth or her character displayed themselves In every change of her expressive face, and now he began to think It would be by no means an easy matter for him to resign the long-cherished picture, as.he had always intended to do at her departure. The time was now rapidly approaching. Already her vl-.ii had been prolonged a fortnight beyond its first limit, and now the last day had come. Ellle Brand was sitting alone in tho little morning-room, thinking of the harpy visit now spent—a visit so much happier than at the time she had imagined possible. She thought, too, of the long, lonely journey on the morrow, and the lira of toil and anxiety before her, and no wonder that tbe contrast between tbe comfort she was leaving and tho drudgery to which she was going forced Itself upon her. But more powerful than all were the thoughts of Maddy's cousin Tom, who for a few weeks had made her lira so bright, and to whom, after to-morrow, she would bo only a passing memory.

"lam ashamed of you, Ellle Brand," she thought nt last, "It's too ungrateful. With so many kind friends, nnd the dearest mother and slater In the world, it is very wrong In you to be moping and fret- ting for a man whose very name you had not beard two months sgo."

Nevertheless the tears were standing in her eyes, when the door opened, and the object of her meditations stood before her. .

Maddy and Mrs. Fletcher are both out," she begin), when she paused in astonishment, her eyes riveted upon the long lost picture, which he held In hi- hand.

Yes, Miss Brand, this a case of conscience," he began, sealing himself at her

I am the guilty person who has had this picture III possession for so long a time, and I have liecoinc BO much attached to it, that I am reluctant to part with It. You and my flowers." At this point Kllle flushed scarlet. "Cannot I persuade you that this would be a fair ex-

"Then, dear Kllle," said Tom, drawing nearer and taking her unresisting hand, "u-iii jou not give me the sweet little original In exchange for—a wedding ring F"

Half an hour later, when Maddy came In from her shopping excursion, Ellle was nowhere to be seen, ami cousin Tom, with a grave face, requested live minutes' private conversation.

see, Madeline," he continued when they were alone, "I fee] that It Is high time I was married, and—well, the fact Is, I have been engaged for some time past."

"It Is lucky I never put any notions In- to Elite's head," thought his cousin with some asperity. "Well, I congratulate you at least on your good sense and energy. I know you ought to be married, but I always thought you would be too lazy to do any courting."

Your good opinion was not wholly un- deserved," he replied, stroking his mous- tache, "for, the truth Is, this matter was rather thrust upon me in the first place. You see the young lady sent me her picture before I ever saw her,"

I wonder at you, Tom," cried his cousin, indignantly; "I would not have believed you would enter Into so foolish a trick."

"The worst or It Is that now she declares the picture Is yours, and insists upon my begging It from you," lie continued, smiling mischievously, and holding the dis- puted likeness before her face.

"Why didn't yon tell me you had it? And the valentine, too! Oh, tell me, Tom, who was it for?" and Maddy looked up coaxlngly.

"So long as Elbe hasn't asked ine that question, you need not think I wilt grat- ify your curiosity. Miss Eve," replied her cousin; "andnow tell me, what tlo you think of the engagement ? "

Maddy gave him an enthusiastic hug. "Oh, Tom, you are perfectly lovely!"

was her somewhat Irrelevant reply.

A Kr noiits Aiiosi: TBK FAIIMKII*

It may be thought that the worst time of the year to visit a farm Is the winter) it may be to the visitor, but It Is not to the farmer. The latter has always more lime at hli disposal during the winter than at any other seaons, and the seeker of Information regarding the science of agriculture will always find a better opportunity lor obtaining it when the labor* of the farmer are light, when the crops do not command his care, and when his mind Ii free from the anxie- ties peculiar to the seasons of seed-time and harvest It was not this consideration, however, that led an aUarhr of tin? AKKIMCAN to visit North Andorer recently, to make some observations, on farm Improvements, but an Invitation front Mr. Qtorgo E. Brown, the superintendent of tbe farm of W. A. Russell, Esq., who on learning of the existence of a curiosity to see the slock for which this farm Ii distinguished, promptly extended a cordial Invitation to do so, which was accepted. Although entirely Igno- rant of the mysteries of soil cultivation, production and stock raising, tho writer during his visit was so much interested, and saw so much that was really worth seeing, and gleaned so much valuable information that his ntwervations are deemed worthy of publication.

On leaving the horse cart at North Andorer, the writer found Mr. Brown wafting for him, and he soon found himself In a sleigh behind a ■pan of colts raised on Mr. Russell's farm, which give promise of being a pair of fast and graceful trotters. Notwithstanding tho Istd condition of the roads tho ground was speedily (ravelled ever by the impatient colu, which from the manner In which they tossed their heads and pranced, seemed vexed that they were not allowed te travel nutter.

TUK PHILLIrS PAIIK. The first place visited was tho farm or Mr.

Wlllard P. Phillips, of Salem, which Ii altuated In the North Parish. The object of visiting this (arm was to M a new bam that Mr. Phillips has recently bad erected. It is a batiilsoine and eoiuiiiiMiioiiH structure, and is furnished with every modern convenience. In the cellar, which Is dry, and, on ono side of tho barn, no lower than the ground love), there ore a number of compartments which are variously used for a piggery, tool-bouse, and root-cellar, the Utter supplied with various bins for the different kinds of roots; here Is also the funime room, cider press and bull pen. On the main floor, which is reached by stairs on tho north side of the barn, and from the row yard on the south, the arrangements at once strike tbe eyo as being very convenient At tbe west end Is a range of stalls fur hones, and al tbe cast end a pen for cows when about to drop their calves. Run- ning down the centre from the stalls to the cow pen Is the "Tie Up," and between the tide of the hern and tho "Tie Up," liehind the cows, are a number of small pen-, for calves. This is a very convenient arrangement, as the calves are kept near the mother while suckling, and their tying up is unnecessary. It ha* one disadvantage, however, and that Is, the visitor l* unable to examine the animal* critically In the "Tic Up," the view being olietmcted by the pens. The stock here i* "Jersey grade" and include* somo fine animals. There was one row In the pen ■,«.B >ui it su nuuiv, itaisy, mm n lias enriched her owner with four calves In five years. There Is a flno view from tho cupola of the bam, extending many miles In ever)' direction.

The water necessary for alt purposes Is supplied from the roof, a large tank iielug employed fur the purpose; hose is connected with the tank, carrying tbe water Into every part of the Imlldlng. Should this supply fall, the liquid in ample quantity can he obtained from a cistern. The luirn is not entirely completed yet; Mr. Phillips In- tends to umke furtlicr Improvement* in It during the coming summer. Mr. Eneas I-. Un- mans, the superintendent of the farm, lieing engaged while the visit was made, the writer and Mr. Brown were shown over the premises by Mr. Patrick Donavan, who did the honors with the grace anil heartiness for which his country- men aro distinguished, nud for which he Is extended warm thanks.

AGHBKFORR BEAI'TY.—It IsjastpoS' slhle, that In this present rage for the an- tique, we may forget the ugliness or many of our prizes In our satisfaction with their age. With the best friends of social art aro ever reaching oat in ell directions for Ideas, old or new, of artistic, truth and beauty, we shall indeed have cause for regret ir (be ancient monstrosi- ties which are dally paraded before us as "old" and "rare" and real" shall be allowed to Influence the growth of popular taste. Let us esteem ugliness if we please,—because It i» curious, valuable, unique, historically interesting, or for whatever rcasou then' Is ground,—but do not let ua try to make people think that it can take the place of beauty, even of that beauty which Is modern, ami not at ail rare.—ScHbner'i for April.

The next place visited was tho farm of Mr. J. D. W. French, which ii situated to tho east of tho Button estate, and comprises 130 ncrcs. The principal business of tills fanu is stock raising. The place is under tbe management of

F. Gardner, who received, his visitors cordially and courteously showed tbem over the cMntiii.hii; ut. Tbe bam, devoted to stock purposes, has not been built as much for show as for convenience, and in its construction it fully meets the latter requirement. One side of the entire length of the ground floor I* devoted to the "Tie Up," wiUi Hie exception of a space occupied by a pen at tho end into which cows are turned when about to drop their calves. Tbe other ■Ide of the floor I* devoted to the storage of food. Tbe main body of the cellar is used for manure storage, and a portion Is partitioned on* fur a receptlcle for routs; tho upper floor Is devoted entirely to the storage of fodder.

The stock raised hero is all of tho Ayrcshlrc grade, and most of tho animals are valuable tbe majority of them being prolific and ex. (.■li.ui milkers. Mr. Gardner first called atteic tton to a cow '• Moss Rose," which took a premium in her class at the late New England Fair, a fine looking animal whoso appearance jestified her reputation. Atbrco year old animal was shown," Roxanna," which I* giving 16 quarts of milk per day. " Old Dolly," a daughter of " Jean Armour" gives W quarts of milk par day; her mot her used to give 82; " Primrose," another fine looking animal, gives 18 quart* per day; " Betty Burke," a large and fine looking cow was shown, whlcb, after dropping twin*, gave in a yet r &J00 quarts of milk. Tbe system of feedings* explained by Mr. Gardner Is for cows giving milk, per day, 2 quarts of cob meal, 1 peck of cat roots, good bay night and morning, and 1 baiting of poor fodder at noon. For animals not giving milk- young cattle—roots and liny. Tbe feed hi given with tbe utmost regularity, Mr. Gardner giving as bis opinion that B Is Impossible to have healthy and productive cattle unless the most strict attention Is given to them, and their food

.pplied regularly to the minute. The famous bull" Flti James" a descendant of " Old Tar- bolton," is kept here. He took tho first premium in hli* class st the New England Fairs of 1871 and 72. Adjoining the barn are the tool house, cart sheds and Itables. Everything ni*,ni the place gives evidence of prosperity.

Leaving this place and going further cast crossing " Silver Lake" on 11„. ice, the colti showing a nne |»ce, the Russell farm wni reached. The laud of which this farm is com- prised Is elevated, and of the finest character. It Include* a bcnulifut grove on the verge of the lake, which in summer must bea most attractive and romantic spot, and, one would Imng- lue,Just tho place for a picnic, where one might fancy oneself at the lieach. From the margin of tbe lake, on tho western Imundary of the farm, the bind gradually rises until is reached tbc highest point of el e vat km of the farm where the buildings are situated. The baru which was Imlll by Mr. Rnsscll is the largest in the vicinity, la ing 120 rcct In length, and tO feet In width. The entire length of the east side Is occupied by lbs " Tie-tip" nnd the oilier Mile by horse stalls and pens. The upper portion of the bam I* devoted to storage. The structure is surmounted by a rnjKjla from which a most extended view la hail, tbc Monad nock mountain range In New Hampshire, lieing plainly visible from tho look out. Tbe view is interrupted In no direction the land being sc high in this region. It must, however, un doubtedly be a more attractive place In summer

Of the grado cattle "Duchess" and "Emma" were New England Fair with a record of 20 and 23 qts. respectively. Emma took tbo first premium In her tin--, " Purcell" and " Sophy" give 20 nti. each. Sovoral other very (Ine cows giving from 10 to 12 qts after bring In milk a year, one of tbe characteristics of the cattle lieing that they hold put well. The bulls kept on the farm are " Zuydor Zee 3rd," 4 years old, weighing 2300 lbs, and " Zuyder Zoo flth," 3 years old, weighing 2000 11M. The former took tbe premium at the N. E. Fair last year. The sire of this stock " Zuyder Zee 2nd" weighed 2800 lbs. Tho cattle are allowed a variety In feeding, consisting of hay, straw, men), liran, and roots. They are not fed high, as forcing Is regarded as Injudicious, Icing detrimental to the cattle if continue.! for any length of time. The animals are fed twice a day, and watered once with strict regularity. Tbe milking hours In winter, are 5.15 A. M„ and 5.30 p. tt., and In summer 5 A. M. and 6 r. M.

The horse stock consists of 9 bead, including tho colts previously spoken of, which are Gen- eral Knox colts, " Frank" 3 years old Mall Ion,

Kitty" 4 years old. Besides these there Is to " Ethan Allen," nnd ono " Harahletonlan"

colt. The others are farm horses, nud have no specuil points requiring mention. The bulls referred to are very large, fierce looking animals, with all the ponderosity of elephants, and the shagglncss of huflaloo*.

The class of cattle to which the stock of Mr. Russell Itching* is noted for yielding excellent beef, and abundance of milk, tho latter making excellent cheese, Indeed tbo milk of Hie cows of thl* class makes the very best cheese.

—To accommodate our dtlncns, N. O. White Esq., has given orders to have a special train run botwoon this city and Boston on Foot Day. As this holiday is generally observed, an opportunity will thus bo afforded many to visit Bos- ton who otherwise would havo to leave a day's work to do »o. The fare for tho round trip will lie only 81, which Is very reasonable. No doubt tunny will take advantage of the occasion to visit tho metropolis.

—Two little, boyi were Hopped Tuesday, between this city and Methucn. One carried an old pistol, and Ihe other had four table kniveo stuck iu a belt r.mnud his waist.

—Tho gigantic drnnin or "The Scouts" baa come nnd gone, and Ned Uuntllno and hla crowd lun e carried aliout a thousand dollars rrom the city. Wo are free to any that the whole r-how, ao we prejudged, was a otopendoui farce. We question the judgment or the City Government in allowing ouch nu entertainment to lie placed liefore our eiliiens, especially the young people, who, In a great measure, formed tho audience on Mondsy evening. The features of this low show wore bowlings and whoopings or tddcoiirily painted and dressed men, nnd botched attempt., at stage murder and scalp-

There have lieen additions to the church nearly every month during the tno-und-a hair- vcors or hla labor with tills people. The Inter- est remains good; tho first Sabbath in the present month eight wore baptized, and fourteen received the hand of church fellowship. Ho assumes tho pastoral charge of Harvard street Baptist church, Boston, immediately nt tho eloso or his lalwrs here. The host wishes of the Second church and congregation, as well

■There Is a thoroughfare In the eastern part

of the city, popularly known by the feline sobri- quet or "Cat Alley." It la never In very good condition, and In winter no man who values hla neck will traverse it. Tho other day, Dr. Sey- ffarth, wishing to save n few minutes walk, attempted the downward passage of Cat Alley. After he had got aliout half way through he wanted to go back, but conldn't. While ho was ruuiinntiugon the posMblc chanecs of breaking his leg or neck, he suddenly sat down, his ranc fell from his hand, aud he went down tho alley precisely like a vessel launched, only a good deal faster than ever vessel left the Blip; and the alley wasn't greaacd cither, although the Dr. wished it hod tiecu; tho paitagu would have ban easier. When tho Dr. got to tho bottom and recovered his seuies, ho found that he had left his ranc where he sat down, his departure having iwen so audden. The Dr. recovered the cane, bat he swears ho will never go through

"Cat Alley" again.

Mr. Hnywnnl delivered a temperance lecture In the town hall, on Sunday night last. The lecture was very interesting, end the interest In the cause continues unabated.

Mr. Oranville E. Fuss, our representative, has sold out his Interest in the Old Line meat market. It |* well understood, however, Mr. Foes docs not Intend to leave town.

Mr. Varnum Corliss is ntfding extensively to his stock of harnesses, looking to nn active trade.

Mr. A. J. l'crkius was In tan this week, en- deavoring to create an enthusiasm In favor of his scheme fur changing the location of the rall- road bridge ncross the Merrhuack, but failed to excite the degree of feeling expected.

The appointment of Mr. H. D.Chnsc, us street corauiir^bncr, glrcs general satisfaction ; a few sore hcadsrccl a little nettled over the appointment, hut it is expected they will cool off. Mr. Chase has held the position fur the past two years, and tho manner In which he lias discharged the duties entrusted tu him led to his re-appolutmcnt. The clean sweep of officials anticipated has not taken place. All the old officers have Iwen appointed, with the exception of Mr. Giklirist, and it Is probable that he will yet be upiMiintcd; .1 i>ctUiun will he circulated having that object In view.

At the last meeting of tho literary association the topic was discussed, "Hesolvcd tlutt hard study la not Injurious to Uiu studonL" lloy. Mr. Hayward, fi. a. K.irgcut. J. (1. fwrkai, Chns. !■:.

" The Watch-Dog of the Treasury." Gems of Thought.

Very probably he Is occupied In con- structing specimens of that mysterious slKnsture wlilch ornaments ill our paper money, sn<l Is to most men a rliltlle more unsolvahlo tban any that the Sphinx ever propounded. Translated, It I* !■'. K. Hpln- ner. We observe that the pen with which It Is written Is of peculiar COM traction, ami has throe points, and that the Ink used has the thickness and eunaistency of mud and the blackness of Kjcyptlan darkness, and Is "piled up" on the paper to a height of which we would be Incredulous \ ollT toDgU had we never seen It, nnd which, having seen, renders us more incrcduluus still. This delightful quality In the Ink, the messenger Informs us, I*produced by long exposure to the atmosphere in an man vessel; to be accurate, In nil old pitcher with a broken nose. It Is nstonhliing, we are further iold, to note the number of people, priuclpally from the country district, who stray Into the Treasurer's room during the course of a year for the purpose of shaking hands with "the mau who makes that funny signature," and oflook- ing wonderlDgly on to see how he makes It. We are uulte sure to In- affably received, unless some clrcumstauce of an unusually disturbing nature has occurred, for "the General," as he Is familiarly called, notwithstanding his reputation for the use of strong words, Is really a man ofun- I'liinniori good-nature. Kven when pro- voked to one of his ebullitions of righteous wrath, his bark Is proverbially worse than his bite, and the goodness of his heart usually leads him to make reparti- tion for violence of language by lenity of action. 80 it happens that applicants for favors at his hands arc sometimes told by their friends, who know the old gentleman's peculiarities, that It Is a favorable circumstance that on the first presentation of their cases they have been roundly scolded, since the chances are, that aftei the ilrst heat of temper has cooled, penl- tenco for undue harshness will lead him on second consideration to grant their re- quests. Not even the General's most ardent admirers—ami no man has more- will claim that he Is a handsome mnn. And ''vin should tbey have the hardihood to do so, the vignette on certain llfty-cent notes, of which there are many still In circulation, would furnish a complete refuta- tion of their assertion. But, to be fair, the shin-plasters do not do 1dm justice. There Is an expression of honesty and opeuness of nature about his homely features, and atwlnklu of humor In the eye, which the artist has failed to repro- duce, and which render the face, like Lin- coln's, kind and genial and fur from im- pressing, A grizzly mustarhe, cut unrea- sonably short at the comers of the mouth, docs not help to supply the lack of beauty In the features. The wide, determined mouth, and the square, heavy chin, suggest the Irreverent Idea that personal appear- ancc, no less than watchful care, of the nation's treasure may hove led to the bs> stowal oftlien.'/ri'/tiri of "Watch-dog of tho Treasury," by which the faithful Treasurer is so well known.

Tho room is of moderate size and plnln- ly furnished, and gives evidence that of the vast amount of money which has passed through his office, but little has been used to minister to the Treasurer's comfort. A door opens into a still smaller apartment In which the Treasurer

The ripple that the boy's oar starts on the western shore of the Atlantic goes quivering ami rolling clear across the ocean, and breaks on the further shore. So the waves or ripples of Influence which our lives start here will not be stilled or stayed till they have broken upon tin eternal shores. No man's work will hi finished till all the results or life have been gathered up 1u limit consummation.

Ilasi-lial bw finely said 1 "1 do not admire In u mnn the extreme of one virtue, as of valor. If I do not see nt the same lime the extreme of the opposite virtue, as hi Kpamluoiiilas, who had the extreme of valor and the extreme of gentleness. For otherwise this character would not rise, but fall, by the excess of the one side. A man shows true greatness, not by touching one extreme, but by touching both nt once, and Oiling up the Interval."

To live Is not merely to breath; It Is to act. It Is to make use of our organs, senses, faculties, of all those parts of ourselves which give us the feeling or existence. The mail who has lived the long- est Is not the man who has counted moat yenrs, but he who has enjoyed life most. Such n one was burled a hundred rears old, but be was dead from his birth. He would have gained hv dying young; at least he would have lived till Ibat time — JfauMMH.

Since that night the Treasurer has Inspect- ed the doors and locks of the vaults himself, and has Satisfied himself, h« attempting to turn the handles, that tbey arc securely locked. The Inspection is made twice every evening—once soon after the departure of the clerks, and ugalu before retiring to rest.
