By-and-b y I began to sing a son^ I hear d Gilber t sing a^niijht or two before at Norbury . I had gone to a quiet garden-part y with Annis, and , after tenni s on th e lawn, then * had been some rnuslo in the drawing-room . Gilber t had a clear pleasan t voice, an d he chose this ballad, a sad little story of two lovers vho raet by a garden wall, an d the n one was false, or perhap s died, an d th e othe r was left to wande r ther e alone , hear - ing "A wbliper mockin g Q>r ind o'er, •Whate'o r tuny be, where'e r tho u art .

" As I ceased, I was awakened roughly from toy merle . Th e twilight had deepen * ed, and № . Garde n had left Mr. Gascoign o and stood by my aide. "I shall remembe r tha t son?, tha t sweet whisper, " he said. "If the end were happy, as it should have been, i would ask you to thin k of me when you sing i t " "Xo," I said, startin g up. Then I added quietly, "You are th e last person I should thin k of, Mr. Carden . Ther e is nothin g aweet in your whispers." I did not hear his answer. I could stay in the room no longer; and, withou t even asking Mr. Gascoigne' s permission , I left it. It was a fine warm night, and th e stars were comin g out in the cloudless sky. I put a light wrap over my head, and stole away from the Grang e down to the lake. It was the first time I had gone to meet Gilber t secretly; but I had promised , if possible, to sea him, and tell him the result of the con* fession I had intende d to make to his uncle . I recollec t every sound I heard , the scents with which th e warm still air was heavy, the sharp shrill cry of the bats tha t darte d to and fro amid the dark trees, and the hum of the flying beetles tha t drone d past me. A cricket chirpe d from the grass, and in the distanc e sounde d the ghostly hoot of the waking owl. The lake lay still and shadowy, the stars of heaven twinklin g on its Martinsville , N .

It was a very rare thins for him to want me in the morning, aud I wandered, as I mounted the wide stairs, whether I had vexed him by leaving the room on the previous night, and whether it would be well to tell him all now.

She raised those eyes—and there came Into them a sudden gleamof tire-and glanced at me as I entenxi the room. Then she looked straight before her at the old piano. and the dark pictures on the paneled wall. Her mouth was set in a firm hard line, her txprossion was proud and unyielding, and her hands, over which fell deep nifties of iho lace that here and there enriched her jown, were pressed a little tightly in their tarelcss clasp. I And near her sat Lady Martin Pomcroy, I her elbow resting on the table and her hand j thadinar her eyes. She neither looked nor : BioveJ when I entered. ! "Kindly shut the door. Miss T h o m e ; !

"I haw beard some statements •enoern* ' Ing y«m," he WPIH( on slowly, "and I desire you to answur them in the presence of my informant.

I wish to ask you whether this is true, and, if it Is, whether you have any explanation to give'/" "Ia that all you have been told?" I asked. The question must have sounded strange; but that did not strike me then. The presence of Hilda 1'arquhar kept back tlie hot flush from my face and strengthened my tremulous tones. lie waa angry, and yet I had been conscious of no sin. He was Gilbert's uncle, and be had been kind to me. "Is not that enough?" said Hilda sharply, and in the cry betrayed herself. I knew then that she had said nothing ot Ulric and Annis, but had trusted to my own disgrace to either discredit me or bring on me the blame for having misled Annis. I knew too that the game was in my hands, if I liked to win; but Annis was my friend, and I could not betray her. "X am waiting for your answer," said Mr. Gascoigne/1'! agree with my niece—what I have said is enough. Is it true?" Again Hilda raised her eyes and locked at me almost fiercely, and her hands gripped each other tightly. "It is quite true," I answered slowly. "I have met your nephew. I asked you, sir, if you had any commands to give me for my conduct outside your rooms, and you said not. I am engaged to Gilbert." , "And is that all you have to say?" he jerked out "Except that I have acted with no Intention of disobeying you, that, if you are angry, I am very, very sorry; and I know Gilbert will be even more so.* "Why should he care? Do you suppose he thinks I am likely to forgive him his own sins? Does he expect to get mymouey yet?" "I am quite sure he does not." "And you were not deluding yourself with the notion that you would be the mistress of the Grange, I suppose?" "If Gilbert had been your heir," I said, *'it would never have happened. I should not have met him, and you would have had the right to see that he pleased you in what he did." "You think I have not tliat right now?" "You cast him off, Mr. Gascoigne, and refused even to hear his name, and he had acted Independently of /your wishes, but never in opposition to them. If he had been your heir, he would Jyave been above me in position, and I would never have had it said that I had marriea him for that position, even had circumstances then brought us together." / "As circumstances, I suppose, did now?" he said shrewdly. I let it pass. The circumstances I could notV/for the bake of Annis, explain. "If I have seemed to disobey or deceive y6u," I said, "1 nsk your pardon; but you /left me free and you left him Iree." "And how long did you mean to keep up the deception?" "I should have told you yesterday, as soon as I was engaged, if I had been able. Gilbert was anxious that you should know at once, and it was against my wishes that I stayed a night in the Grange knowingly keeping the truth from you." "When do you mean to get married—on nothing, I presume?" "Gilbert has his professou. 1 have my home, in the meantime." "You propose to go home at once, 1 suppose?"—" Yea," I replied. "I don't see," said the old man testily, "why I should be inconvenienced in that way. I shall desire you to remain until I find some end to take your place; at least, you must pive proper notice. Our arrangement was a purely business one; sentimentally, I am aware my feelings are of no consequence. iSince tlie young gentleman is not my heir, they cannot and do not claim to be considered by either of you, of course.'* "They can and always will be, sir. Gilbert is your nephew; no quarrel can alter that And hearts are truer than gold." Hilda gave a forced sarcastic laugh. Her uncle was silent a few minutes. "Well, Miss TUorne," he said at length, "I have heard the charge, and I have heard your answer to it which simply^mounts to an admission of the facts. As you have intimated, I have no power over my nephew or you. I intend to act strictly upon our busi- , ness relationship with you, and, as regards ; my nephew, having nothing further to cut i him off from,I can do nothing. Yon will understand— and he had also better understand ' —that you stay at the Grange to fulfil your ; engagement with me, which was entered into before your engagement with him, ami that I shall certainly not leave him a farthing when I die. Nothing I possess will be... left to either of my nephews. Now is there anything further, HKda, you would like me to sayV "I should scarcely have expected," said Hilda calmly, "that you would have cared to keep in your house one who has behaved in this manner." "Very good," he answered. "That is my , own affair. I keep Miss Thorne, who has ! done her work as my secretary to my entire ' satisfaction, as my secretary. I made no ! bargain as to her leisure hours. If she were my niece, of course I should take a\rry different view of the case. Anything else, Hilda'.'1' "Nothing." "Have you any question? to ask, Gwendoline?" "None," said Gwendoline, speaking for the first time, and in a low suppressed tons. "Then, my dears, you can go back to your drawing-room." They went Hilda with a slight flush of tTiumph on her cheeks, but yet not fully satisfied, I thought. Neither the best nor the worst she might have anticipated had happened. Gwendoline followed her in silence to the ; door; but, Instead of going down to the drawing-room, she paced np the long corridor, her trailing gown, that fell from her y shoulders fn graceful folds, reflected on th» polished floor and ca'cliiiig rays of warm color from the painted window. I proceeded straight to my own room, and stood at the open casement, looking at Urn distant gleam of tho lake. "Miss Thcunel" I turned.

"1 want you to know," s!u- said, " Iliat I havet had no Imnd in thN. 'Why you shielded Anuis I cannot tell.

She waited fur no answer, hut had gone before i could .speak. CIIAPTEIt Xlll. After luncheon I returned as usual to Mr, Gascoigne's room, and took up the Times, which lay on the sideboard unopened. "Not just y e t " he said, putting up h!i hand. "I want to talk to you first. Com* here 1" His tone was so gentle and thoughtful, to different from the terse sentences he had sharply uttered to me a few hours before, that my heart throbbed strangely. I went to him and knelt down by his chair. "You are not angry with Gilbert and me, Mr. Gascoigne?" "I am not going to tell you," heconimeno* ed, taking no apparent notice of my words, "ail the reasons for which I and Gilbert quarrelled. There was possibly pot on« good reason, but what people cali incompatibility of temper. When he first came to me, he was a frarrk outspoken iad, a bit rash and wild, and I had to keep a sharp eye on him. Perhaps it was too sharp; h« found out that his words and actions became known to me, and he began t j gel jealous and mistrustful. Because he knew, I believo or suspected, that all he said and did was reported to me, he said and did what he was well aware would displease me, and grew fitful, capricious, and suspicious, .^ve differed in a thousand and at )*st we parted." Afterwards I learned that Crawford Carden had been even then one of Mr. Gascoigne's spies, and had done all in his power, by false reports to the one and exaggerated pretended sympathy with the other, to divide uncle and nephew. "He is not mistrustful or capricious now," I said. "He is generous to everybody in word and deed. No one could be more so." "The last subject on which we quarrelled was the subject of marriage." "Marriage!" I started. "His marriage. I had three almost penniless nieces. I had two nephews—my heirs. Ulric was young, and at college—Annis at school; Gwendoline was engaged to Lord Martin Pomeroy because he was rich; I bade Gilbert marry Hilda. He scarcely knew her, but refused even to learn her mind. He said there could be nothing congenial between them, and he would not be married for liig money, as Lord Martin had been—for Gwendoline's marriage, poor girl, was not happy, though Mart u was a tine young fellow whom any girl might have loved. Well, ha proposed to diviilc the property with Hilda. I said the Grange property had not been divided for a hundred years, ami I was not going to begin to tlo >o tu suit him. He an* swered that lie wanted none of it; and bo it ended.' "Ami Hilda,'' I asked tremulously —"did Hilda know of your wish'.1' "Do you think I would let a young lady know she had been rejected? The matter was between me and Gilbert, ami us only. The girls knew so little that, when they met their cousins, they thought it advisable to keep me in the dark. I a;n not easily kept in the dark." I looked up at him quickly. How much did he know? His voice had returned to in old dry tone, and he chuckled softly. "I heard whispers, plenty of whispersl My young gentleman began to have privato meetings with Miss Hilda and Miss Annis, and I bethought me that Master Gilbert might find his lovely cousin more attractive now that tlie money was on her side. I wished him to fall iu love with her, I intended it; that would be checkmate. 1 waited." "Mr. Gascoigne, who has told you all this? Who has betrayed them? Not 11" "No, not you; you kept the secret remarkably well, and longer than I expected, when you had every temptation, as great as I could make it, to save yourself by revealing it. You did not tell me that my nieces set you fhe example in meetings under the rose, and that Annis was hiding yet more!" "Do not be vexed with her," I cried; "sho could not help it. She could not prevent herself from becoming acquainted with TJlno at Norbury; hhft could not prevent herself from loving Mmr It waa not hiswi<h or her* that you were deceived.

Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery invigorates the liver, purities and enriches the blood, and rouses every organ into healthy action. It prevents and cures all diseases arising frofea a torpid liver or from impure blood. Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Biliousness, Scrofulous, Skin and Scalp Diseases — even Consumption ( or Lung-scrofula), in its earlier stages, all yield to it. Tho makers ot the "- Discovxry " claim for it only what it will do. They guarantee that it icill do it. If it fails to benefit or cure, in any ease, they'll return tho money. Nothing else that claims to purify the blood is sold in this way; which proves, no matter what dealers may offer, that nothing else can be " just as good."

No sooner did this] fall's campaign close and th*^ elections returns come in than] politicians scanned the ligures of November .'Jaud recalled the events ; of preceding weeks as a basis for shrewdly laying party wires to catch votes next time. In like manner it will be wise for people , to improve the iirst Sunday after I Thanksgiving by thinking how! future Thanksgivings can be made more proiitable and enjoyable J'or themselves and other folks. To begin with, here is a suggestion or two for those on whom so much depends, the clergy. Last Thanksgiving many of them en- ; doavored earnestly to .speak words ; in season to point their hearers' 1 mind toward important, perhaps •neglected, truths, to kindle, tires ! of noble resolve within human : breasts not le,s.s growing than the fires that were burning in fragrant kitchens and cheerful dining rooms where the customary feasts were making ready. .But, unless in exceptional cases, it is to be feared that the efforts of our clerical friends were to much nullilied by absenteeism. An array of empty pews is not an inspiring vision. How would it do to try an experiment next year'.J Instead of urging your regular congregations to attend the Thanksgiving day service, inv.te them 1o stay awav.

And do not stoj) with providing a good dinner. Perhaps there is illness. Perhaps there is loneliness. Kating and drinking do not til! out the measure of Thanksgiving day in y o r homes. \\ liy should t hey in the homes of those unfortunate ones whom you try to make happier at this happy season? Will it not be well just now to consider how you may spread abroad as much as possible of the spirit of the dear old festival?

WKKK men yennrully as g-itilant and attentive to their wives as is the ostrich, women would be happier und bave more ostrich foathors to wear. When you see an ostrich feather on a lady's hat, or La the hat of a uniform knight or soldier, think of the ostrich and wonder if the one who cares for the woman thus adorned is as much of a man us is the husband of the hen that laid the eggs from which came the birds thut yielded the plumes that add so much grace and beauty to feminine head-gear. g IK men were like watches. If th« were as clean inside and outside, they kept such good hours; were well behaved. If thoy could be.trusted its well in the dark. If they could do thoir work as faithfully, and without grumbling. If they were as content and satisfied with their environment.' If they did as much for ot.hc.rs and did it as freely. If thoy were in nil things as true and reliable, as a good watch, the Paradise Lost in the old Eden would be transformed into the heaven of which the little children sing. PRISON managers should not loso Bight of the fact that prisons are places of punishment. Neither should thoy ignore tho equally important function of reformation whonever it can bo observed. If any prisons keep their inmates in luxurious idleness it is not in accordance with tho principles of the reformatory aystein, but contrary to it It was the old bridewell system that kept its prisoners in idleness; while it is tho design of tho reformatory system to make thorn work. It ]9 not necessary to be brutal in order to make imprisonment a penalty; and to deny the prisoner an occasional bouquet, a Christmas card, or tho chance toread when his work is done, would be simply a reaction to thn chirk ages of brutality. Even towns THKRE is a force at work throughout all Christendom that defies charity. It was not always thus, now there comes to those big men who look with horror on tho evidences of misery that greet thoir eyes, and turn back to rural simplicity with a feeling that they would die if constantly surrounded by s> much human suffering. Even citizens now awellng in tho city can remember when no hungry child sobbed itself to sleep. But the town has increased in population and wealth. Magnificent homos line its avenues and palaces of trade offer wonderful fabrics -for the opulent customer. Wealth abounds, and yet doth poverty much more abound. And the chimes ring gayly for feasts and solemnly for fasts. Hut tho great world wonders not that.,Christianity is a failure, but that it has not yet turned its attention to one of the great causes which hayo barred its progress and made mockery of its pruyers. nothing tends more effectually to make society or the individual poor and weak and thin, mentally and morally, than intentional ignorance of things important to all tho interests of human life. Wholhor it is duo to .silly vanity, to fear of fashion's power, or to a cowardly1 dread of conscienco and its dictates it is always enfeebling to the character and debasing to the life. Those who yield to it shut out from themselves and tho cliques to which they may belong much of tho be^t talent and strength of the world. It is not strange that men and women, eager for truth, vigorous and enthusiastic, strong in principle and earnest in endeavor, should retire from tho^a who have neither anything to give nor dosiro to receive. Fashionable and conventional society can never estimate the losses it thus sustains; nor can its submissive votaries know what wealth of power, vigor and happiness thej *r« voluntarily throwing away. l?imoui,YN, N.

The sun did not rise over Brooklyn until one minut* b«fort> 1 o'clock that morning, and it set 4 o'clock and thirty-n" ve minute* that evening. What a Bmull Bpoce of time in which to militate uoou twelve months of bt^ut'factions. So I add to that day this Sabbath mornlnp service, und with the fruit* and horvests of the earth still glorifying the pulpit and the galleries, aak you to continue the rehearnal of the IMvine goodnesa. Hy a sublime egotiau man h*a come to appropriate thia world to himself, when the fact ia thut our race is in a small minority. The in- Btanoes of human life, as compared, with the infitanoes of animal life, are not one to a million. We shall enlarge our idnus of God's gooduess and come to a better understanding of the Uixt If, before wo come to took at the oup of our blessing, we look at the gootlnesa of God to the irrational creation. Although najture Is out of joint, vet even in Its disruption I am surprised to find the almost universal happiness of the animal creation. On • Bummer day, when the air and the grass are most populous with life, you will not hear a Bouo&of distress unless, perchance, a heartless school-boy has robbed a bird's nest, or a hunter has broken a bird's wing, or a pasture has been j obbed of a lamb, and there goes up a bleating l»om the fiooks. The whole earth ia filled with animal delight—joy feathered, and scaled, and horned, and hoofed. "J^he bee bums it; the frog croak* it. the t>julrr*l chatters it; the quail whistles it; the lark carols it; the whale spouts it. The snail, the rhinooeros, tho grizzly bear, the toad, the wasp, the spider, the shell-fish, have their homely delights—joy as great to them as our joy is to us. Goat climbing the rocks; anaconda crawling through the Jungle; buffalo plunging'acro »s the prairie; orocodilc basking in tropical eun; seal puffing on the ice; ostrich striding across the desert, are so many bundles of joy; they do not go moping or melancholy; they are not only half supplied; Uod says they are tilled with pood Tho worm squirming through tho sod upturned of plowshare, and the ikiita racing up and down the hillock, aro happy t>y duy and happy by night. Take up a drop of water under the microscope, and you Uud that within it there are millions of creatures thut swiin in a hallelujah of gladness. Tho Bounds in nature that are repulsive to our ears are of ten only utterances of joy—the growl, tho croak, the bark, the howl. The good God mude these creatures, thinks of them ever, und will not let a ploughshare turn up a mole s nent, or tisherman's hook transtix a worm, until by eternal devree, its time has come, God's hand feeds all these broods, and shepherds all these flocks, and t<>nds nil these herds. He sweetena the clover-top for ihe oxen's taste; and pours Cat crystalline waters, in moused cupa of rock, for the. hind to drink out of on his way down the crags, and pours nectar into the cup of the honeysuckle to refresh the humming-bird; aud sprviuis a banquet of a hundred fields of buckwheat, and lets the honey-bee put his mouth 1o any cup of all the bonque-t and tolls thrirms^hopper topo anywhere he likus, and ^:ves the Hocks of heaven the choice of ull the irrain-lleMs. The sea aneroone, half-animal, h ilf-ttnvrer, clinging to tho rock In mid-oc^an, with its ivnUti'l-s spreiul to catch its f<x><l, has the owner of the universe to provide f(,r it.

When the unfledged robins are hungry, (.jod shows the old rohiu where slie can ;'et food to put into their o|>en mouths.

Thn animal creation also has its ivriny and navy. The most hiMKUitiennt has its means of defense.; the wasp i\n sting; the reptile its tooth; tlie bear its p:iw; the dog its muz/le; tho elephant its tusk; the tlsh its scales; the bird its swift wing; tho. raindeor its antlers.; the roe ita rli*r.t foot. We are replied at the thought of sting, and tusk, and hoof, but God's goodness provides them for tho defense of the animal's rights. Yea, God in the biblo announces his enrp for these orders of creation. He say* that ho has heaved up fortifications for their defense- Psalm civ., IS: "The high hills are i> refuge'for the wild gonts, and tin; rocks for the conies.' He watches the bird's nest - lValrn civ., 17: "As for the stork, the Mr-trees are herhousfl.'1 He tees thru the cattle have enough grass-Psalm civ., 14: "lie cuuseth the L'ra>s to grow for the cattle." He s<*os to it that the c^iws. amlsheep, and horses have enough to drink—l'sulm ci\., 10:11: "He st nileth the springs into th» valleys, which run alon^ the hilis: thev give drink to every beast of thetluld; the wild asst s cuenuh their thirst." ""rAint(tttir"ttnTH(1ors"df"SThaI (iriiY uttered"fTic rights of cattle, and said that they should have a Sabbath. "Thou Hhnlt not flo-^riy work, thon, nor thy cattle." He declared*" with' iniinit<i<'mphasis that tlio ox on the, ihri 'hiiig-(l<K>r should have the privilege cjf etitln^ Minn: of the grain as he trod it out, and muzzling was forbidden. If young birds were taken from the nest, for food, the despoiler'slife depended on the mother going free. God would not let the mother-bird suffer in one day tho loss of her young and her own liberty. And he who regarded in olden •'time thn conduct of man toward the brutes, today looks down from heaven and is interested in every minnow that swims the slre-am, and every rook that, cleave^ the air, ami every herd that bleats, or neighs, or Imvw in Un: pasture. Why ijId God make all those, and wliy make them so happy? How account for nil this sinpinj?,. and dancing, and frisking amid tin',irrational creation? Why this heaven for the animalcule in a dewniup'r Why for the condor a throne on c'hiinbomzo? Why the glitter of the phosphorus in the ship's wake on the sea, which is MI id to IK: only ihe frolic of millions of insects? Why the perpetu.il chanting of so many voiws from tin- irr.ition.il creation in earth, and air, and ooi-an -bea>ts,and nil cattle, creepic? things, ami Hying1 fowl, pennltW'd to join in the praise that piles up fr<,m seniph and archangel? Only one solution, one explanation, one answer -G<xl is good. "The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord." I take a step higher, and notice, the adaptation of the world lo happiness of man. Th*»sixth day of creation had arrived. The plac« of the world was made, but their waa no kiug to live In it.

They ire natives of the Galapagos islands, in the Pacific ocean, where they thrive in great numbers. Some of them are enormous, and. la »pite of their slow movements, neoassltated by the big shells in which their bodies are incaaed, they have beer ksown to put up a pretty stiff fight against man. The tortoises from the Galapagot islands have been very serviceable to mariners in the times when stean* vessels were unknown and buccaneering wae a science on the Pacific seat* During this period it was a matte of great difficulty to provide sufficient food for a voyage between one port aad another. Especially was this true of the hardy buccaneers, who found it inconvenient at times to put in for supplies at public places. This is where the Galapagos tortoises came in. In passing the islands the captains laid in a supply of them, and let them live until they were to be used aa food. 8« large are these reptiles, and so congested is the material of which the; aro made, that two tortoises aro oftaa found sufficient to last a crew of twelve buccane T9 on a business voyage of a week.

He was making a coupling and had inserted the link into the drawbar. When he attempted to jerk his hand away, the fii>t and second fingers were caught on a couple of slivers that had been sprung on i.lie link. These held his hand in place and the 'drawbars came together upon the two tinkers, Allen having the presence ot mind to twist the rest o& his hand around out of the way. The engine continued backing for about five car lengths before his signal to stop could be seen and heeded,, in the meantime Allen's h'ngers weie firmly held by the merciless draws and he had to walk along with the train. The first finger will probably be saved" but the second had to be amputated. The slivers uad entered both fiugers., lacerating the tie.su in a painful manner." Jay is well known in this v'cinit}', and he has the sympathy of all his trieniK lie paid this village a visit the tir>f o7TTn~wVek earlymg the injured hand well done up, Christmas *ume of tti*' pliicca in l'im.kney wlicri' (hoy iiuiy bt) foil ml. A trip to our stores reveals the fact that another year ha>. pass^<J ami Christmas is nearly here again. The past year has been nrm of prosperity with must peuple and our merchants are taking advantage uf the times to spread before their customers their wares in the best shape to attract attention. In evwry place tlmre are so many articles that ;,re suitable for presents that one hardly knows 'what to buy but all can be suited as regard to price and quality. AT F. A. Suinci'.'s.

In the windows are displayed some fancy china and glass ware that only costs 50 cents apiece and a pound of baking powder thrown in besides. A Hue line of shawls, b'ankcts and dress goods are displayed winch would make handsome presents for anyone. Messrs Barnard k Campbell are to have a special sale of some of their goods hf>- fore the holidays and it, will bu a good opportunity to secure some fine bargains.

THK AMKK1CAN HOC). The law of the las-t Co! gress providing a sys- Ifin of inspection for our meats intended for export and clothing the President with power to exclude foreign products from our market in case the country sending them should perpetuate unjust discrimination against any product of the United States, placed this government in a portion to effectively urge the removal of such discrimination against our meats. It is gratifying to siatu that Germany, Denmark, Italy, Austria and France, in the order named, have opened their ports to inspocted American t>ork products. The n-mov- -al of these restrictions in every instance WHS asked fur and uiveu solely upon the ground that we had now provided a meat inspection that should he accepted as adequate to the «">mplete 'removal of the danger, real or fancied, which had been previously urged. The outlines ol an agreement have been readied with Germany, looking to equitable trade concessions in considerut ion of the continued free importation of her sugars, but the time hus not yet arrived when this correspondence can be submitted to Contrress. THKMASSACItK OK THK SAILORS. On the Uith of October an event occurred In Valparaiso so serious and tragic in its circumhtancps and results aMoexciie the indignation of uur people and to call for prompt aud decided action, on the j art of this government. A considerable number of the sailors of t h e United Slates steamship Baltimore, then in the harbor of Valparaiso, being upon shore leave and unarmed, were assaulted bv armed men nearly simultaneously in different localities in the city, u n e petty officer wn-* killed outrgljl and seven or eight seamen •were seriously wounded, one ol whom ha-> vinee dieil. So far an 1 have yet been able t i learn, im •oilier ex pin nation of this bloody work has been suggested t.ian that it had its origin in hostility to these men us sailorsof the I'yited States, wearing the uniform ot their government and not i'i any individual act or personal animosity. The attention of the Chilian Government •*asat. once culled to this atTair and a statement of the facts obtained by the investigation we had^ondnetcd was submitted and was accompanied by a request to be advised of any o< her or qualifying tacts in t h e p. sscssion of i e Chilian Government that might tend to ie ieve this affair of the appearance of an in- 1 biilt to this government. The Chilian Government \va« al.>o advised that if such qualifying lacis d i # n o t exist this Government uonld'contidently expect full and prompt reparation. It is to be regretted that the reply <»f the Secretary for Foreign Affairs of the provisional government was couched in an offensive tone. To this nn response has been made. This government is now awaiting t h e result of an investigation which has been c Jiducteri by the criminal court at Valparaiso. 1 will by a special messRue brine this matter atrain to the -attention of Congress for such action as may • be necessary. The entire corresuondence, with the Government of Chili will at an early day be submitted to Congress. CHINKSK AKKAfRS, The late outbreak against foreigners in various parts of the Chinese Empire h a s been a cause of deep concern in view of the numerous establishments of our citizens in the interior •of t h a t country, 'Ibis government can do no Hess than insist upon a continuance of the protective, and punitory meawure* which the <'binese Government has heretofore applied. No effort will be, omitted to j>r tec.t our citizens peaceably sojourning in China, but recent unofficial information indicates that what was nt first regarded as an outbreak of mob violence against foreigners has assumed t h e larger form of an insurrection ngainst public order. '(Tie Chinese government h a s declined to receive Mr. Hlair us Minister of t h e United States on the ground that as a participant, while a Senator, in the enactment of tne existing legislation airainst t h e introduction of Chinese laborers lie has become unfriend]v and objectionable to China. 1 have felt constrained to point out to the Chinese government the untenablrnefss of this position, which seems to rest a« much on the unacc.eptability of our legislation a-s on that ot t h e persnn chosen, and which, if admitted would practically debar the selection of any representative so long as the existing laws remain in force. You will be called upon to consider the expediency of making special provision by law for t h e temporary admission of Rome Chinese artisans and laborers in connection with the exhibit of Chinese industries a t the approaching Columbian Exposition. I regard it AS desirable that the Chinese exhibit be facilitated Jn every proper way. OUR RIGHTS IN THK CAROLINE IHLANDK. A question has Arisen with the government of Spain touching the rights of American citizens in the Caroline Island*. Our citizens t here, long prior to the confirmation of Spain's claim to the islands, had secured by settler •ment and purchase certain rights, to the recognition and maintenance of which the faith —TT—Spain win pledged.—I have had reason •»v:inin the pant yenr very strongly to protest against the failure to carry out this pledge on tlie part ot her majesty's Micii.->ters, which has resulti d iu great injustice aud injury tu the American residents. The government and people of .Spaiu propose to celebrate ihe four-bunuredth anniversary of the discovery of America by holding an exposition nt Madrid which will opfu on the 1-th of September, ami co.ntluuo until the Hist of December, l<sy~. A cordial invitation has been exteuded to the I'niled Stales to lake part iu this commemoration, aud, as Spain was one of the first nations to express thi* intention to participate in the World'.-Columbian Kxptxsiliou nt Chicugo, it would be very appropriate for thin government tu give this iuvilalion Us frieudiy promotion.

Under tlie law of July 14, 1^#), the Secretary of the; Treasury has pureha>ed since August Hi during the tiscal year 48,ISMS,HU ounces of silver bullion at an average cost of 81.(Wo per ounce:. The highest price paid during tin: year was Sl.tfWfi. and tbf> lowest S".iHvB. in exctinnire for t his silver bullion have been issued $oO,- :")77,4flN of the treasury Mites authori/. d by the act. Tlie lowest price of silver readied during the fiscal year was iO.WW. on April '£!, 1HD1: but on November one the market price was only SU.W. whicii wouid give to the silver dollar a bullion value of seventj-four and one-fourth cents. Hefore the influence of the prospective silver legislation wa-s felt in the market silver was worth in New ' York about $IUIW> per ounce. Thr ablest advocates of free coinage in the last Congress were most confident in their prediction that the purchases by the government required by the law would at once bring the price of silver to l.VftJ.i per ounce, which would make the bullion value of a dollar 100 cents and hold it there. The* prophecies of the anti-silver men of disasters to result from the coinage of $2,(XX),(XH) per month were n t widerof tne mark. The friend* of free silver are not agreed, 1 think, a* to t»e. causes that from I,onri«m to India during the first niun muuths of the calendar year fell oft over GO per cent, or f lT.-U.'.T'JO, compared with th« same juouths of the preceding yeur. The exporta of domestic silver bullion from tkiu country, which had averaged for the last teu yearn over j>17.0UU,wm, tell iu the last tiscal to J1H,7»7,3"1; wiille, for the nr*t time in recent yearn, the imports of hilver iuto thlu country exceeded the exports by tbo BWXL of f2,745,3b.1). In the previous year the net exports ot silver from the United States amounted to $8..r>4.ri.4tVi. Tho production uf the United States increased from lyuOU.WJO ounces in 18SV toM,5U0,UtHJ iu 1890. The government ib now buying and putting aside annually M.mni.UK) ouuees, which, allowing for T.no.tul minces of new bullion used iu the arts, is li.O-KI.UU* more than our domestic product availablu for coinage. 1 hope thu dcprus.siou in the price of silver is temporary and that a further trial of this legislation will more favorably affect it. That the increased volume of currency thus sup plied for the use of the people wa» uecdert aDd that beneficial results upon trade and prices have followed this legislation 1 th nk must be very clear to every one; nor should it be forgotten that for every dollar of these notes issued a full dollar's worth o? silver bullion is at the time deposited in the treasury as a security for its redemption. Upon this subject, aa UJHUI the tariff, iny recommendation is licit the existing laws be gi\ en a f nil trial and that our business* interests be spared the distressing influence which threats of radical changes always impart. Under existing legislation it is in the power of the Treasury Department to maintain that essential condit ion of national liuancu as well us of coinmercial prosperty the parity in use of the coin dollars ami their paper representatives. The assurance that these powtia will be freely and unhesitatingly used has done much tu produce and sustain tho present favorable husiuess conditions. I am still ol the opinion that the free coinage of silver under existing conditions would dl»- astiously a!lect*cair business interests at home and abroad. We could not hope to maintain an equality in the purchasing power of the gold and silver dollar on our own markets, and iu foreign trade tho stamp gives no added value to the bullion contained in coins. The producers of the country-the farmers and laborers have the highest interest that every dollar, paper or coin, issued by the government shall be as good a*> any other. If there is one less valua! le than auother its sure and constant errand will be to pay them for their toil and for their crops. The money-lender ivill protect himself by stipulating for payment in gold, but tho laborer ln.s never been ible to do that. To place business men upon i silver basis would mean a sudden and t*e vere contraction ot the currency, by the with drawn) of gold and gold notes, and such at iinsetllini; of all values ;is would produce a commercial panic. 1 c.iunot believe that fl people so strong and prosperous as our* wiU piomotu such a policy. The producers of silver are entitled to Just consideration, but they should not forget that the government is now buying and putting iut of the market what is the equivalent of i he eni ire product of our silver mines. This s more than they themselves thought_of jis_k • 'n'u't w"i/Year's* ago.T UDeTIevtTTf'Ts tlie earnest" ler-iieni a great majority of the people, as it is mine, that a full coin use shall be made of silver just a.s soon as tiie co-operation of other nations can he secured aud ii da-sis fixed that .vill give circulation equally to gold aud silver. i'hu business oL the world requires the use of ioth niotals; but 1 do not see any prospect ot ,'aiu, but much ot loss, by giving up the presnt system, in which a full use is made of gold irid a large use of silver for one iu which ilver al^ne will circulate. Such an •vent wouid be ut once fatal to the further nrogress of tho silver movement. Biunetalli> ni is the desired end, and t^e true friends ot ilver will be caieful not to overrun the goal ind bring in silver monometallism, with its .lecessary attendants, tlie loss of our gold to Europe and the relief of the pressure there for i large currency. I have eudeavored by the w of official and unofficial agencies to keep x close observation of tlie state of public sentfiit'nt iu 1',II rope upon tills o.u«»tion, aud have iot found it to be such as to justify me in prolosiiig an international conference. There is-. lowever, I am sure, a growing sentimeut in lurop • in favor of » larger use of silver, and i know of no more effectual way of promoting ;his sentiment, than by accumulating gold ;ere. A scarcity of gold in the European i'eerves will be the most persuasive argument Cor the use of silver.

The 1'ostmaster-( iciieiiil estimates that an expenditure in American shipyard* of about $1(J,IKJU,()IXI will be necessary to enable the bidders to con- M rnct the ships culled for by the service •which the.\p have accepted. i do not Jhink there is any reason for discouragement Or for nny turning back from tlie policy of this legislation. Indeed a good beginning has been made, and, as the subject is still further considered and understood by capitalists and shipping people, new lines will lie ready to meet future proposals, and we may date from tho passage of this law the revival of American shipping interests and the recovery of a fair share of thu carrying trade of the world.

Some of t h e vessels now uuder construction, it is believed, will be triumphs of uaval engineering. 1 commend to your favorable consideration the reeouimeudatious of t h e Secretary, who has, 1 a m sure, given them t h e most conscientious study.

THK PKA'MION BUKKAT. The administration of the Pension liureau has been characterized during the year by great diligence. The total number of pensioners uuon the roll on the UOth day of,June. 18V1, was 076,100. Theru ivero allowed during tiscal year ending nt that lime X~A);W> cases. Ot this number. 1O.',1!&7 were allowed under the law of Juue tJ7, isttJ. The issuiugof certillcates has been proceediugat the. rale of about ISU.UOU per mouth, about 7ft per cent of these being cases under the new Usv. Tlie Commissioner expresses the opinion that he will be able to carefully adjudicate and allow :i'iU.UI( claims during tht1 present fiscal year. The appropriation for the payment of pensions for 181KU wa.s Jl 7,:vV>.7i*),ti4U £>, leaving an unexpected surplus of $U.l.r»,l44 W. The Commissioner is quite confident that there will be no call tills year for a deficiency appropriation, notwithstanding the rapidity witu which tho work is being pushed. Tlie mistake which has been made by many in their exaggerated estimates ot the cost of pensions is in not taking account of tlie diminished value of lir&t payments under the recent legislation. These payments undent he general law, have heeu tor manv years vcrv large, as the jyen.sions, when allowed, dated from the time of filing the claim, and most of these claims have been pending fur years. The first payments under tlie law of June, 1J-W, are relatively small, and, as the per cent ot the cash increases and that of the old cull diminishes, the annual aggreg a t e of lirSt payments is laru'eh* reduced. The Commissioner, under date of November IU, furnishes me with the statement that during the hist four months ll;>.17."> ccrtiiioates were issued, -T,M*i under the general law and ts>,'2Kl tinder the act of June ~'7, \K 0. The average first payment during these four months was $131 is"), while the average rir^t piyment upon cash, allowed duriug the year eutiiug June Itl), 1S(J1, was $£& ;>3, being a reduction in the avur age first payments during these four mouths of ? 107 48. i The estimate for pension expenditures for the fiscal year ending June a), lhO3. is $144.9.">o.- 000, which, after a careful examination of the subject, the Commissioner is of the opinion LAV ill be aulllcieut. \\hile tht'se tlisburseinents to the disabled soldiers uf the g n a t civil war are large, they do not realize the exaggerated estimates of those who oppose this beneficent legislation. The Secretary of the Interior shows with great fullness the care that is taken to>.vclude fraudulent claims, and also the gratifying fact that the persons to whom these pensions are going aremeu who rendered not slight, but suh.stan ial, war service. KA1LKOAD Sl'lUSlDIKS. The report of the Commissioner of Hailroads shows that the total debt of the subsidized railroads to the United States was December ;U, 1S90. $112,r.l2,tJKt 06. A large part of this debt is now fa>t approaching maturity, with no adequate provision for its payment. Some policy tor dealing with this debt, with a view to its ultimate collection, should be nt once adopted. It is very difficult, well nigh impossible for so largo a body as t i e Congress to conduct the necessary negotiations and investikrationsv I therefore recommend tbat provision be made for the appointment of a commission to agree, upon and report n plan for dealing with this debt. I recommend that provision be made for the orgatii/.ation of u simple form of town government in Alaska will: power to regulate such matters as are Usually in the states under municipal control, i J K . l ' A K J ' M K V r U K A i i H K I ' I / I f l i l , . If the establishment of the Department of Agricult ire WHS regarded by anyone as a mere concession to the unenlightened d e m a n d of a worthy cliiss of people, tbat impression h a s been most effectually removed by tlie great results already attained. Its home influence has been very great in disseminating agricultural and horticultural information: in stimulating ami directing a further d h ersiiieatiou of crops; in detect.imr and eradicating diseases of domestic animals and, more than all, in the close and informal contact which it has esiabl shed and maintains wit h 1 he farmers and siock raisers of the whole country. F.very request for information has had prompt attention and every suggestion merited consideration. The scientific corps of t hv depart ineni is of a high order und is pushing its investigations wit h met hod and ent husitism. The grain crop of this year was l i e l-ir<_fest' i;i our history, '>U IUT cent greater than t !.u t of last > ear, ami yet tlie ne,v m a r k e t s t h a t have been opened and tlie larger demand resulting from short crop* m Kuiope have sustained prices to such an extent that the enormous surplus of meats i\nd breadstuff* « ill bo marketed at good prices, bringing relief a n d prosperity to an industry that was much depressed. The value of the grain crop ot" t h e United States is estimated by the Secretary to be fhis year $')U,.(rt>i,()<)0 more than last; of meats 51.".(),- 0<)0,00(l more, and of all products' of the farm. £71)0,000,000 inort1. It is not inappropriate, 1 think, here to suggest that our satisfaction in the contemplation of this marvelous addition to the national wealth is unclouded by a n y '.suspicion of the currency by which it is measured and in which the farin.er is r>aid for thu product of liis fields.

T'^e method; of appointment by the stales ». electors of President and Vice-President haw recently attracted renewed iiiterent by reason of a departure by the Slate of Michigan from the method whicii had become uniform iu ali the states, l'rior tu 1832, various methods bud been used by the different states and rveu In tlie. Mime state. In some the choice win twule by tUe Legislature; iu others electors c h e hy districts, but more generally by » \ oters of the whole state uptm a g»ner»l tick- -k et. The movement toward the adopttou of tho r last name! method had an early beginning aud weut steadily forward among the atateji, until in 18& there remained but a single btate. South Carolina, that had not adopted it. That state, until the civil war, continued to chocma by a vote of the Legislature, but after the ww changed its method and conformed to th» practice of the other states. For ueurljr sixty years all the states n v e one have appuiuteU ' their electorH by a popular vote *upou a general ticket, and for nearly thirty years thin method WHB universal. After a full test of other method*, without important division or dissent in any state, and without any puriKise uf party advantage, as wo must believe, but solely upon the considerations thai uniformity was de irable and that a general election iu territorial district* not subject to change wusmo&t consistent with the popmai character of our institutions, best preserved the mualitjr of the voters aad perfectly removed the-clinic* of President from the baneful Influence of the "gerrymander." the practice of all the slates WHS brought into harmony. That this concurrence should aow be broken is, 1 think, an unfortunate and even a threatening episode, and in that may well suggest whether the states tbat still give their approval to the old aud prevailing method ought not to secure, by a constitutional amendment, a practice which has had the approval of all. The recent Michigan legislation provides for choouiug what are popularly known as the congrobslonal electors /or President by congressional districts, aud the two bcuatoria.1 electors by distrh ts created for that purpose. This legislation was. of course, accompanied by a new congrtshional apportionment, and tun two statutes bring the electoral vote of thu state under the milucuoe of tlie "gerrymander." Tbeso gerrymanders for congressional purposes are in most cusus buttressed by a gerrymander of the legislative districts, thus making it impo-aible for a majority of the legal voters of the state to correct Ihe apportionment and equalize the congressional district* A minority rule has been established that only a political coavulsion can overthrow. I have recently been advised that in one county of a certain state three districts fur the election of members nf the Legislature are constituted a» follows: One hus tir>,UtJO population, cue 15,000 and tine 10.1KJ0. while in another county, de- Inched, nou-contlguous sections have beeiiuuited to make a legislative district. These methods have already found effective application to the choii e of Senators aud representatives in Congress, and now an evil start haa been made in the direction of applying them to the choice by the states of electors ot President and Vice-president. If this is accomplished we shall then have the three great departments of the government iu the grasp of the "gu1 rymander,11 luo legislative and executive directly and the judiciary indirectly through the power of appointment. An election implies a body of electors having prescribed qualifications, each one of whom has an equal value and i flueuce in determining the result. So when the Constitution provides that "each state sha.ll appoint" (elect) "in sucb manner as tlie Legislature thereof may direct, & number of electors," etc., an unrestricted power was not given to the Legislatures in the selection of methods to be used. "A republican form of government" is guaranteed by the Constitution to each state aud tho power given by the same instrument to the Legislatures of the states to prescribe methods for the choice, by the states, of electors must be exercised under that limitation. The essential features of such a government are ths right of the people to choose their own offl.cer, aud the nearest practicable equality of value in the BtitTrages given in determining that choice. It will not be claimed tbat the power given to the Legislature would support a law providing that the persons receiving the smallest vote should b<- the electors, or a law that all the electors should be chosen by the voters of a single cnogreiftional district. The state is to choose, and, under the preteuse of regulating methods. Ihe Legislature can neither ve«t the right of choice elsewhere nor adopt method* nut conformable to republican institutions. It is not my purpose here to discuss the question whether a choice ^.y the Legislature or oy the voters of equal single districts is a choice by the state, but only to recommend such regulation of this matter hy constitutional amendment as will secure uniformity and prevent that disgraceful partisan jugglery to which such a liberty of choice, if it exists, offers a temptation. Nothing now is more important than to provltie every guaranty for tho absolutely fair and free choice by an equal sulfrage, within the respective states, of all the officers of the national government whether that suffrage is applied directly, as iu the choice of members of the House ol Retirementutiveu, or indirectly', as in the choico or Senators and electors of President. Respect for public officers and obedience to law will not cease to be the characteristics of our people until our elections cease to declare the will of the majorities fairly ascertained, without fraud, suppression or gerrymander. If I were called upon to declare wherein our chief national danger lies I should say, without hesitation, in the over throw of majority control bv thu suppression or perversion of tlie popular suffrage. That there is a real danger' here all must agree, but the energies of those who see it nave been ei.eerfully expended in trying to fix resporisibilit y upon the opposite party, rather Mian in efforts to make such practices impossible by either parly. Is it not possinlc now to adjourn that interminable and inconclusive debate while we take, by consent, on« step in the direction of i'i form by eliminating the gerrymander whicii has been denounced by all parties as an influence in the election of electors of President and members of Congress? All the states have, acting freely and separately, determined |hat the choice of electors by a general ticket is the safeht method and it would seem there could tie no objection to a constitutional amendment making that method permanent. If a Legislature, chosen in one year upon purely local questions should, pending a presidential contest, meet, rescind the law for a choice upon a general ticket, am} provide for the choice of electors by the Legislature, and this trick should determine the result, it is not too much to say that the public, peace might be seriously and widely endangered. 1 have alluded to tlie "gerrymander" as atTecfing thu method of selecting electors of President by congressional districts, but the primary intent ami effect of this form of political roblniy have relation to the selection of moTTibers of the House of Representatives. The-power of Congress is ample to deal' with this threatening and intolerable abuse. The unfailing test, of sincerity in election reform will be found in a willingness to confer as t<\ mum! irs and to put into force such measures as will most efK'Ctually preserve the right ot the people to Iron and equal representation.

As to Gilbert, although I regret for somo reasons b* did uot, ns I certainly expected ef Lira, court his cousin Hilda, because now he has baffled my plans lam Buttoned with his choice. But, for the present, things remain aw they were. I am not going to let him come back; I know we should get on no better now than ever. I rescind none of ray orders, I shall not leave him any of my money, for I am not in the hahlt of changing ray mind." kkThere Is something which would be more precious to him than your money.; may I tell Li in that yon forgive him?" "Yes, you may," he said, after a few UKH mf*nts' hrsitution—"but not :it present. When yon are nmrrleil, you mny tell him all you please of what I have «iid to you now; until then It must regain sealed, and, like everything else t,hat goe-* on in this room, not a word will 1 have repeated. If Gilbert knows I forgive, he wiil hold out hopes of the Gran fife, and neglect his work, and be in a hurry for me to •lie," "No, no!" I exclaimed. "Yes, yes," lie said testily; "and I shonld b« suspicious of him, and— It I I'll think about it when rle<l, but not a syllable shall In; heur till then. You can keep a secret, Miss Theme. Believe me, my dear, I know him better than you do yet, »n<i it's best for you he ihould not know, whether I am alive or dead, that he had my pardon. I dare say he'd think you were marrying him for tne chance of the Grange; In would find something to be suspicious stbortt, one way or another. He has all the Uascoigne pride and the (Jascotene jealousy 1" Of course I did not asrree that lie knew Gilbert half so well as I did, and I was sure Gilbert trusted me a jrrpat deal too well to be jca'ous. ( know lie. hud not any linker- Ing hopes nf the Ciran^c which Mr. Gasroigne took for granted only wanted a puff to set them alight. "You must promise," he said. - "Since you wish it," I answered slowly, "I cannot refuse, sir; but " "Leave the lbuts'; I can't argrie. It's a question of that or the withdrawal of the pardon altogether," he said, with his dictatorial directness. "Now for the Times, if you please, and business." And so things relapsed into their previous state, and the day* parsed on. We wera fettered, and were conscious of our shackles; but we could do nuthintf. It was a Ktranjjex life, aud at times I fretted and struggled against my bonds; but Gilbert and I were all In all to each other, and I could not b<; unhappy while he was near. As for Crmvfor Carden, Mr. Gaseoitrne, at my earnest roquest, let mo leave him when In1 <imrV; but no hint of my dislike served to stop the visits of the spy. or his assiduous attentions to me when I chanced t ee him, although he must have been uwa was the promised wife of Gilbert Ga^ooi*. Xor were my innuendoes more effectual wltli Gilbert. Naturally h« thought it all due to illogical prejudice. "L don't like him myself," he said, tn his frank way. "But he is a clever fellow* and we are partners, You shall not see more of him than I can help win n we arc married, darling" 1 was to stay three months longer at St. Gabriel's Grange, in accordance with .Mr. Ga>coi^ne's request; ami it was now mid- June. It seemed that my last liirec months under that roof were to be more full of anomalies and contradictions than the lirst three, only that (rilbvrt's love and Mr. Gascoigne's words to me were enough tn far overbalance ihe trials;hh demands entailed on inc. Vet I felt that he was u:iinteiitinnally hard on ns, that our lives w err unnatural, our relations strained. » • # • • # « Annis, encouraged by her uncle's receipt of my engagement, imparted her own to him one evening when only I was with them. "You young people act by contraries nowa- days," was the old gentleman's characteristic answer. "I conclude your affection for each other quite overcame your care for my views on the subject; and your meetings were doubly sweet because they were secret, I suppose Miss Thome set you the bad example?" "No —oli, no, nncle; I set it to her 1 It began before she came, nnd I persuaded her to go witli me. It waei all my fault!" "And you repent tt all sincerely, n<» doubt?" Annis blushed and laughed very prettily, repentantly; and her uncle allowed a smile to creep into his face. "I hope y - i will be happy. Annis. I don't intend to be, vexed with yon, or to alter my opinion with regard to ttlric. You can tell him that he has made a very Rood choice, that I haven't the least Inclination . ty alter any of my plans, and that, when I die, yon will have ten thousand pounds." "Uncle," cried Annis. with bit; imploring eyes, "won't you forgive him? It's that we want, not the money. Don't talk of dying, uncle Richard r "Doesn't ten thousand pounds look like forgiveness? You will find it more useful for housekeeping, Annis I My dear, it's no question of forgiveness. I am an old man, and am living a life that suits rae, and I cannot have things revolutionised for the few days I have left, as they would be if once I ' let your cousins inside this house." And with that Annis ha I to, be content. "But it is so nice, Viola dear," nhe imparted to me, "to know that you are in just the i Aame position as I am, to know we can share our little secrets and our little sorrows, and our long beautiful happiness! Poor nncle \ Iliehard! Why didn't he got married?" ; It was not mui'h sympathy either Annis or I got from her sisters. Hilda, Increased by the knowledge that her last madly-shot arrow had n« poison to injure me, was more bitter than •*«-. Hut tfnfc could hardly explain tilt eras] disdain with which she treated me, tb« contumely she heaped upon me, the insulti for which, so long as I remained -irt-fti. Gabriel't Orango,I - had no-answer. Eversincel cam* the had been chill and h*uf hty. I knew her to be proud as Lucifer and cold as Ice; but; now I found that ice could burn like molten metal. She bad never fe*eo my friend, the had never spoken a kindly word to me, never refrained from an opportunity to remind me of my position in tbe btnsehold, had tough! at first to If* nore and then to annihilate me. At Uje beginning it had been only a htudloui neglect, a Netting at naught the fact of my press*nee. Now It was war a outrance. What L, who had never willingly made an enemy, had done to deserve this hatred X could not gaess. I thought Gilbert could have nothing to do with it, since she knew nothing of his refusal to marry her. How could I guess that she, so cold, proud, and ambitious, would have given up the Grange and her uncle'* favor, riches and brilliant position for the sake of Gilbert Ga.scoiene? How could I guess that then, when all Norbary looked upon her as the pincee of Lord Oruieby, the Karl of Scarborough's eldest son, she loved the cousin who bad nothing but htn profession aud the future pf a country lawyer? CHATTJJH XIV. One evening I had been down to the lake to meet Gilbert, in an hour stolen when Mr. Crawford Carden was poisoning Mr. Gaseoigne's ear and courting the favor of tl;« old man he looked upon as childish encugb to be cheated by his duplicity aud duped by his flattery. I kn-w thu.t in the end he would find himself deceived, for, after hia departure, Mr. Ga.->colgue would chuckle, and say to me— "Clever man, Vinla! I'm anoJd rolfain- «wnt,and he is going to cheekmate me in the ne»t move. He knows how to play two frame* at a ttnur, does Crawford Carden, and he wilt win them, as he deserves. He knows there's a ILtle sum to come to him under my will, for the last I made he himself suggested should be drawn up by another lawyer, and 1 shouldn't be surprised if be expects tlie Grange." "How can you bear to have him about you when you think thai?" I cried. But he only laughed in his dry way. On thin night, ai 1 was coming back through the Grange shrubbery, I came suddenly face to face with Gwendoline Pom* eroy. She stood perfectly still in front of me, without speaking a word. "Lady Mnrtin I" I exclaimed. I l:-d never culled her by her Christian name, although Buch was her own wish, preferred in o.ie of her periods of friendliness, and having Its root in dislike of her married title. It was a curious stormy friendship thitt existed between us; sometimes she would be almost passionately affectionate, at others she flun^ me aside when I would have sought her with an impatience as fierce. Never for an hour together could I tell what In r humor would be; but never was she happy, and always restless and changeable. "Yon!'1 she said abruptly. "Why arc you not with nude Richard? Why are you out'."' "I came to see Gilbert. Von are taking a late ramble; but it is such a lovely ui^ht, far iilensanter out of doors than in." "Yes," slip said, "perhaps it is." "May I walk up the terrace with you'* I do not want to go in yet. Mr. Gascoisne does not nr» d me, aud it is hot aud clo.ie in the house." "I am not going on the terrace, and I don't wimt company." I turned away—I was necu-tomed to her petulance; still I washed she would walk on the terrace, for down this narrow walk between the rhododendrons I knew Crawford Carden would be coming before lon£. I wondered if the-three girls ever sttspecreit anything of his visits, uhrt I could not a*-k them for my promise's Mike; but, if Gwendoline had let tne join her in friendly nui'ii, 1 think f must have been Impelled to induce her, with tlm strongest words I could use, without actually relating facts, to disniKs her maid; for that very eventne, as I csune out, I had seen Mr. Carden enter the Grangeby the little side-door, mid by the dour Mathilda met him, nnd I *>nw her place in his hand a'note -tin1 record of her ewn spyimr. As I wall.c-d towards the hnus.e Gweiuli*- Une sttipp d N:iek and hiM her hand OJI my arm. "Viola," she cried, "don't leave me! Stay with me, whether I want you or not. Don't leave tne herd by m\*Hf. Younmst nottro." "Dear Lady Martin." I said at once, taking her hand in my own, "you know I,want t« stay. I should like to be here under the stars and animi r the trees f< r an hour. It in so calm, and ihe air so sweet with the roses! Let us go down the rose arcade. "Calm! Ifi it calm:" she cried passionately. "I think it Is the calmness I hate.

Let us <o and wulk auion^' the roses aud say we will be, S w w t i t M e s , l i k e We were still in n e narrow path, and, a< I quickened my steps in obedience to Gwendoline's beliest, only too glad to hasten away, I saw a man coming towards u.s. It could be no one else but Crawford Canien. Gwendoline said nothing, and, I thought, did not notice him. I looked round and sup?esttHl quiet!} "Let us I'VO.SS tli'Jgra&MJiroiigli.tb.e.bu*hc«u-.. There is a short cut this way. St*o !" I stopped and pushed aside the shrubs; but she did not seem To near me. She walked oa, and, before I had rejoined her, haw whom she waa meeting, bhe turned bacil sharply. "Viola," she said, "come!' I hastened after her; but Hr. Carden was already face to face with her. I noticed that he did not try to avoid her, a.s niirht have been expected from his secret visits, but stopped, and, as 1 cuinf up, I heard him say- - "What does this mean'/" "It means that I am taking an evening walk, Mr. C;:rden," she answered coldly— and 1 did not wonder at the coldness—"with my friend, MI'-s Thorn-." "To be sure I" he answered at once. "Very pleasant, is it not? Good evening to you, Miss Thurne. I hope you will nee that I^aily Alartln does not stay out !ou£ enough to taka cold. Miss Thorns and I are not quite gtranters, Lady Martin." "I nippose not—so much tbu worse for Miss Thorne." "I tru>.t she dees not agree with you," ea!d he, laufhing lightly. "Do you think you arc wise to remain out her« while the dew is fallizii,'? Ladies are apt to be thoughtless when stars and evening-breeze are the ajlarernents. You are sfiJverinff uow. Will y«u fetch Lady Martin a wrap from the house, Miss ThorneV11 "Miss Thorn« willdonothinicof thekind," said Lady Martin. "What will effectually preserve us both from shivering Is walking. Don't let us detain you, Mr. Curden; It is a Ion? way to Norbury. Good night." "Good night," he responded, holdin? ©ut IJIH hand, which she either did not or feigned not to sec. "Viola," she said, after a silence of several minutes, while we walked on, "I hate that man. I know he is a spy upon my movements; but I cannot speak. Remember, I hate him." "If you know what he is," I &aid, "yon eusht to know also that your maldMathilde is in his pay. I have seen her me^t him— only to-ni^ht '' She cave me a curious, searching, intent look: in the half darkness her eyesgleamcd like tire. 1 felt she was trembling all over. "Is she?"-and she laughed harshly. "1 am goin'< in. I am cold." A sudden strange fear seized upon me. What did it mean? I knew not what it was that I feared; but mechanically I followed Gwendoline Into the house, and mechanically went up-stairs to Mr. Gascoigne. We played at c)if ss until an unus-'.ally late hour. As soon as he dismissed me, I soiyht Annis, and intricacies of squares and mates, king's bishops, and queen's knights still thronged in a haze abont my brain, as though they were the living present difficulties of life. Ann's was sitting in her bed-room readinsr, waiting for Lucy to come toiler. She had herself nnfaatened her hair, which hnnj like H vcl!ow veil of Uoss-silk around her pretty fair face, and she had put on her white wrapper, anii -thrust her feet Into ribbondt'cktHi pink-wool slippers. She was engrossed in h T book, but looked up with a smile to greet me. We had huil many a peasant little talk at thai hour in the room, two fond and happy girls as we were, in the depths of our love's young ilrram, with the future all in a golden glory before us: but r>-nii:ht I had not come for this plpa~-H"l chat. "Annis." 1 si id, "will you tell me something about Lord Martin Poiueroy. When is he cominir hark'.'" "I/onl Martin'" oclioi'd Annis. "What mules you a-k, Viola'.'1' "Never mim! tluit." I an-wcred. "I am curiom. 1 "ii]i''O c. Is it wonderful, when he is Gwendoline's husband'.' Why is he in India \vv\ siie in Kntrland?" Annis's bright lace clouded a litrlf, and a tliongiitfu! .-hade came into the 'iowncai-t eyes. "I cannot, tell yon lunch," she snid" slowly. •'Gwendoline htvitme pnsau'cd to him whi'e 1 was at schooi. and when they wore' in Li'iidon, the season after rlieir marriage, they w» re always out a tJ't'at deal, and 1 didn't si'i» niucli of them.

"Tlu'V said," Annls answered hesjtating- ]y. "it 'was her health; but, Viola, I am afraid their marriage was not very happy." 1 had expected as much. Poor Gwendoline! I did not answer; and presently Annis ran on rapidly. "I hate to think str, it seems wrong to fancy siwh a thins, and no one has ever said as much.

There are so many good reasons why you should not repeat gossip, and not one why you should, that if you stop -and reflect you will never be guilty of it. You know that after ycHi bavesaid it you cannot unsay it or limit, the number to whom your words will be repeated. Kx Gentleness with stock of all kinds should be the rule on the farm.

The new President of Chili is in a situation that appears singular to Americans. He will not be inaugurated until the day after Christmas, and yet he is apparently in the full exercise of Presidential authority. AVhile it is true that this situation is the outcome of the recent successful revolution, it has another and distinct significance. It conveys strongly the impression that inauguration will be a matter of form, and that the Preident-elect is chief of state by force of his triumphant army and navy, and not by any genuine exercise of popular suffrage. In other words, Chili is approaching _or has arrived at the c.'Qiiditiuu_ui sther South and Central American States ruled by military dictators, with--*4w-tious_us. a- matter of Trrnn. The situation is one. to be deplored, but recognized. I t calls for a firm policy on the part of the United States in dealing with countries thus governed.—Press. Shall We Do With Our Boys!"

I suffered from catarrh with bronchitiiformaryyenrs. During thattime I employed physicians and faithfully 'tried many so-called remedie* advertised to cure this disease, without any material benefit, when a friend induced me to try your remedy, claiming others had been cured by it. The first bottle gave me the mott pleasing results. I have continued its use and I can not say too much for It It found me too near the grave forcomfortand restored me to health apain.

Coroner's Finding in tbe JUulllken Murder.--Annual Meeting ol' the Ciran^e at Lan»lutf. FAHM machinery did not coin^ into general use until ia.i ;u;jro wuro conyinood by thoir own eyea that it would lessen materially the co^t of produotion. So it is with roads. When- •rer farmers are convinced that food roads will cheapen the co.^t of production they will take step? to create tboro ugh fares as harJ rind ffflTtSot^ as those in THR measure of the consumption of food and clothing by a community is the true measure of its prosperity. The man who has been limited by •tress of poverty to the use of meat bu| once a day and to the purchase of but ooe suit of clothing1 a year begins to eat meat twioe or thrice a day and to purohaee two or three suits a year as soon as his income is enlarged. TUK old Norae vikings have been reduced to the ranks by a new etymology. John Fiske says that the word rfejmes with "ticking," not with ••striking,11 and instead of meaning any tort of 'king," describes a man who livee on one of the bays or fjords that indent, the Scandinavian coast. ID •neient d'^ys he wa9 a sort of longshoreman, fisherman, stevedoro and general dockwollopor, who indulged iiS piracy as a sido line. The Grmidmotlirr Exonerated. The coroner's jury at Milliknu ooipuneled to investiguUi the circumstances attending tho death of Ada Turuer ut the burning of her graDdniQther1* dwelliop three miles east of Mulhken, reached a verdict on the 5th, after uu all duy's session. It is tot the effect thut whileiUie girl came to her death by unlawful means, the contributing cause could not be agreed upon. While the verdict is not as conclusive as desired, it is probably as nearly so as could bo expected under the intense excitement prevailing in the neighborhood, which bus been intensified from duy to Jay fur u week. One result reached, however, Is llu< exoneration of the grandmother, Sarah Turner, from playing any part in the tragedy. The jury were flrtu in their convictions that the tire was of inceudiary origin, but wheu the effort to fasten it ui>ou the grandmother failed, there was no testimony before the jury to enable TIWMI UI iaston it upon uny body else. T h e Blow at t l r a n d H a v e n . The severe gsile that visited Grand Haven on the 4th, did considerable damage, blowing down sipus und numerous trees, and tho U., C}. H. & M. semaphore.

Great excitement and indignation prevail ambng all classes. Too MUCH of tho knowledge received in schools ia simply book knowledge, and many of our boys and girls leave school and study forever without the least idea of tho practical use of tboir education. The rulca in the arithmotio, the definitions in grammar, the dates in history and the boundaries in foreign countries, and even our •wn states, are ail forgotten, simply •ecauso the pupils did not rooeive Irom the branches tlu>y studied that •ulturo which in BO essential to success, Killed In a Charles Huldintre, while standing In the bottom ot a new shaft being sunk at tho Winthrop iron mine, was struck and instantly killed at Jshpeming by a descending skip.

A fiENTLKMAS is always courteous to hia speech. He in especially courteous in addressing servants or others whose positions place them at a disadvantage in controversy. To speak nadely to thone who cannot resent the affront is mean and cowardly, and a gentleman is never mean or cowardly. But, apart from all that, why should any one wish to be rude in speech to those who serve him? What advantage doe* he hope to pain? What part •f his nalure does he gratify, unless hie nature bo base in a degree not eommon among men of decent bringing up? Arrogant self-assertion is the •ureat possible mark of vulgarity of •Bind, whethar the man guilty of it is a duke or a,coal-heaver, the master of a palace or the humble servitor upon premises. LITERATURE can be taught, lirot, in connection with reading, oven in the primary clas^en. By the uso ot ohort atorieq literature can be mad • very interesting to primary classos. Children love stories. Let the teacher, in the form of stories, impress upon tho minds of his pupils >i few characteristic features in the life of an author or of his writings, and they will remember him ever afterward in all hia productions and study them with more pleasure than before. Tell them of the benevolence of Goldsmith, the insanity of Cowper, tbe poverty of Bums, the melancholy of Johnson and tho blindness of Milton.

He knew nothing of business methods. He was keenly sensitive in money matters and had seen much of poverty and pecuniary trouble. Few people can ever know what it cost Lien. Grant in humiliation and distress bo make the visit to Vanderbilt Ue sent hi* card to Mr. Vaaderbilt during the latter's business hours. When Mr. Vanderbilt saw the card he stepped out into the ante-room and bhore saw Gen. Grant sitting with other people, waiting for an audience La the order in which be had entered. He greeted the general warmly and asked him to step into the private office. Gen. Grunt -w back, saying that there were oilier persons ahead of him and he would await his turn. Mr. Vanderbilt insisted and Gen. Grant passed into the private offices. He was not there over five minutes. Mr. Vanderbilt seated himself, but Gen. Graut remained standing, declining to take a seat and holding his soft hat* with military cord, in his hand. Gen. Grant Baid: "I have come on a matter of business. Mr. Vanderbilt" "All r i g h t " said Mr. Vanderbilt. "Is there anv thing I can do for you, generalP" for he suspected the nature of the general's visit. SaLd Gen. Grant, with a ghost of a smilo: ••! would like to exchange checks with you." "Glad to hear i t " said Mr. V underbill drawing to him a check-bock and dipping hia pen in the ink. "How much shall it be?" Gen. Grant hesitated and looked away and finally answered in a low voice: '*Ono Hundred""and fifty thoueand dollars." The chock was quickly filled out and handed to Gen. Grant He took it, grasped Mr. VanderbiltVhand a moment and walked out hurriedly without a word. The rest of t h e matter is~tnowh— the conveyance of the swords and relics. &c, to Mr. Vanderbilt I spoke of this pathetic story to John Russell Young, wnowas a fellow traveler with me on a Maine train ono long and pleasant day recently, and he was certainly as near to Grant as any other man, who said he had no doubt of its correctness, and I have given it as it was given to me. John Russell Young added his belief that had it not been for that trouble Gen. Grant might be stLl alive and among us.—Chicago Nows. FRENCH COOKERY TERMS.

To the horrors of famine in Rus*l» have been added smallpox, which ia carrying off large numbers of the impoverished people, who, ia their weakened condition, fall a ready prey to the disease. No mention of tho existence uf smallpox is mude by the newspapers. Tbis is due to secret Instructions Issued by the police ordering tho newspapers to Ignore the famine and epidemic of smallpox. In two small villages of the government of Hiazen, 2U0 persons are down with the loathsome disease and 50 deaths have already occurred. Smallpox is also ravaging the provinces of Viatka, Samara, Kharkoff, Vladimir, Kursk, Orenburg, Peterhofl and Saratoff. In addition to this visit of smallpox, typhus fever is carrying off numerous victims in various provinces. On the whole, a more gloomy outlook could not be well imagined, and although the few doctors scattered through the country are doing their utmost to sUy the disease their efforts are almost useless. The people have reached a stance where they think it useless tc fight against any affliction sent to them, and consequently maoy who might recover had they any energy or will power, lie down and succumb to disease without making a single effort ia their own behalf. Maoy, too, prefer death from disease to suffering the flow torture of death from starvation. NO MOKE WAR. CHURCHES ALLIED TO SECURE AN INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION. 8OPER SLIPPED. The Secretary of Stale Resigns I pon the I'rgeut Hequeit ol'f«ov. Wlimim. Daniel E. Soper, tho debonair secretary of state, under the present administration, has been brought up with a short tunn by Gov. Winans. For some time past rumors of pending trouble in that department have been quietly circulated at Lansing, so many were not astonished when it was announced that Gov. Winans had asked Mr. Sopor to step down and out immediately. The charges were brought against Soper by Mayor Johnson, of Lansing, and include the disposal of property belonging to tho state, purchasing unnecessary supplies, demanding a portion of the salary of Louis E. licwley, assistant secretary of state, to be paid to him. and corruptly appropriated state funds to himself. When summoned to appear before the governor, Soper acknowledged his guilt und said ho would tender his, resignation to take effect on January 1. He was informed that it must be given at once to take immediate effect and the consequence now is Mr. Daniel E. Soper, erstwhile social lion of the cupitol city, is now out of a jab. Many who have watched his career express the opinion that Mr. Soper's private Ida was a trifle vapid for safety. The MOCK Breeder*.

Chicago special dated the 15tfc says: Jesse James' exploits were outdone to-uight in Chicago. On one of the leading thoroughfares five highwaymen suddenly surrouuded one of Uncle Sum's biggest mailt1 wagons and at revolver point forced the postal employes to throw out several sacks. Tho bulky government vehicle was then sent flyiug on its journey, th« occupants being threatened with instant death if they made outcry or stopped. So complete was the surprise effected by the bandits that the mail drivers failed to utilize the services of a large bulldog which was beside thorn on their seat. Near midnight the stolen mail-sucks, slit open and' rilled of their content, were found on Superior street, iu tue north division of the oity, fully three miles from the scene of the robbery. At thut hour every available man of tho city detective force and the postofflee- inspeelor'a-stafl were straininjj_e_very_ nerve to obtain a clue to the identity of. the highwaymen or their whereabouts.

T li' ti y \v e v^ 0 amony the first exiles un^ler the adminis t r a t i v e process, that is. exi led without trial. They were refined, educated and wealthy My grandmother, a beautiful young Woman of 26 years, was, during part of her journey, chained to a male convict t>f the lowest class. The treatment she then received drove my grandfather to frenzy, and he was killed by •an officer a week ~vfffter they left St. Petersburg. Whether there <vas ever any notice taken of his death I cannot tell. Three weeks after in)' grandmother tfave birth to a daughter— my mother. Impossible ns it may teem, they both lived, and to prove that there in a spark of manhood in the most hardened my grandmother received rather better treatment afterward, though how she eould have lived (Jod only knows. At length she readied Tomsk, and there her journey ended. Her sentence of banishment had been for twenty-yeans, and she. knew that meant for life. Hopelessly she dragged herself from house to iiouso. seeking a shelter for herself and little, one. At length it wretched peasant gave her the use of one miserable, room. She entered, believtng she should atTen sf"fihcfsciTitude; even thiR is denied political exiles. At any moment an officer may invado their privacy and their poor belongings pass under his inspection. Hourly this most wretched woman prayed for death for herself and child, but they-lived on and oruan'd strangely enoug-h the little one throve. They lived upon the small allowance furnished by the government treasury for the support of those unable to work. This was barel}' enougih to prevent starvation; not enough to give thorn one comfort, not even paper and ink. Correspondence was, however, a doubtful pleasure, as every letter received or sent had to pass under the inspection of an officer. Many a night after that dreary cottage. The mother,was now unable to leave her miserable bed. Christinas was approaching and Mary had never had a Christmas present in her life. Young and old, as you gather about your Christmas trees on this blessed morn, think of this little girl! She is only the type of a class. There are "ttja-my more as forlorn, though, thank <tod, she now stands "where w liters arid where storms are calm, and the eternal hills are beautiful," 1 think of her always. __J_ wilJJiaveJQi> present. I will have nothing but an opportunity to work for those I love, who are still in exile. 1 write "only to arouse attention. To help by ever so little is better than to sit still. When I read of those who give their lives in this cause how I exult—how I long for their glorious martvrdom. But patience—my day will come. My grandmother knew that the coining PRAYED FOR DEATH they had retired their room was entered and everything examined—even the bed. Through all this they lived and the little Marie grew into a fair, large-eyed. timid girl, with a beauty so rare and delicate that her mother's hoart awoke to still another ache. "With nothing to help her but the wisdom of unutterable '"lore, my jrrandmothe^ edueted her child and mnde her a worthy branch of the noble house from which she sprang. For fourteen years they had lived in "WONDER * "RAPTURE: Christmas was to be hor hist on enrth, and she poured out her whole soul in supplication to ()od to send a protector to her child. . One came, but if there is .a (lod why did he not barken sooner? One precious possession besides her treasured child my grandmother had kept all these years, so securely hidden that it had escaped the prying eyes of th<? vigilant officers. This was a picture of the little boy who died before th£ evil dors fell n,pon her. A little joyous fawd framed in curls, a manly, steady little fellow—so like the husband who had died for her- -all that was left of a happy home. This picture she had never mentioned to Marie, afraid at times to .even think of it, so ubiquitous were h-ftr persecutors. Hut now she must soon die and she would give herself the sad pleasure of bestowing this treasure upon her child for a Christmas present. Christmas eve the two .lonely ones sat encircled in each other's arms, and the mother again recounted the cherished memories of h«>r brave little boy, again told the beautiful Christmas story and the customs of happy homes in other lands. Then, it being very !ate, nnd the dnnger of a visit seeming-to he past, the mother drew from its hiding place the picture. Marie gazed upon h with wonder and rapture. NhfMiad never seen anything" so beautiful, and it was her own darling" little brother. What can I say to make you feel this as I feel it'? Pause, happy mothers and sisters, and imagine yourselves living through it. The door opened, an officer entered, snatched the picture, and after a scene I cannot describe, carried it away. He ne*er returned it. Suspicion was aroused that this poor, hollow-cheeked woman, on the verge, of the grave, ia< secret communication with St. Petersburg. A short time nfter my father took an adjoining room in this wretched cottage. My grandmother had known and loved his parents aud she poured out the most devout thanksgiving to (Jod for this friend who wonl 1 surely watch over the child. His presence • brought 'the first feeling of security she had known since her arrest so many years ago. My mother and father loved each other from the first and my grandmother died peacefully in my father's arms. After the burial they were married. The Mistletre «f Pagan Origin, The mistletoe is looked upon • as the Christinas plant. A great many people believe that the distinction is owing to the fact that it blossoms in .some count. tries at this time of the year. Such belief is founded on fiction. The mistlevoe has been an emblem of Christianity almost since the time of Chris:. It first came into use as such under th.e reigii of Pope .(Jregory I. who sent some missionaries to Albion (now England) to spread Christianity among the Druids. Some years afterwards a pilgrimage Christianized Druids visited the. Papal city bringing ' mistletoe branches and throwing them at the feet of Gregory as an evidence of .their renunciation of Dmidism. It will thus be seen that the mistletoe was first the emblem of Druid-paganism. Chrisfmns Devoted Wife- Have you any embroidered Christinas slippers?

To the young the years speed not fast enough; to the old they are too short. The young employ the closing, of one year in ambitious planning for the next, the aged muse over the events of the past and contemplate the mysteries of the future. In , the lives of some the year has proved a memorable one. while in those of others it is suggestive of no special events. The hopes of one have reached fruition, the aspiration of another have fallen short of success, and thus the last day of December brings alike pleasant and sad memories. Whatever the year of l$rJl has brought to us. there is a valuable lesson to be learned. If any undertaking upon which we entered has proved unsuccessful, we can now, on looking back over the ground, see more clearly the cause of our failure. No lesson is so forcibly learned as that born of experience. A past failure ofttimes points to a future jsuccess, if_we l)iit profit by__the lesson. No year is wasted which brings to us a clear realization of our individual worth and its best employment. The experiences of the old year will make our successes during the new more assured, for we will have learned what shoals to avoid in the sea of life. If our bark has just ground over rocky reefs with but slight injury, let us feel thankful that we -were not entirely wrecked. To be successful, the truth has been tauirht that the best success is that which is born with modesty and a humble exterior. It is a poor success that brings with it an outward self-consciousness of our talents or gifts. The njo^t admired and beloved men and women are those who combine prosperity with mode>ty. And thus to all the year can be fruiiful of good re- Bults, if we hnt extract from our individual experiences only that which will be the most yirotitn Me for us to reineml'er. Then we thall be the better prepared to enter upon the New Year with wisdom. ,-c;i! and ener<rv. ran be made by 70a setting Wurtvrf ^ Stock for u a thi* winter. Uon't delay. Btart nt one Outfit KKKB.

G.tEAT griefs, Shakspcuro tolls us, are as medicine foi jur lessor sorrows. The remedy, it may bo thought* is worse than the disease. And yet it in not BO altogether; for the overwhelming anguish which swallows up tho minor tribulations disciplines the mind, and, wh^n it has felt tho shock of real calamity, it is less likely to bo disturbed by petty annoyances. IN the complex relations which are brought about by tho requirements of modern commerce, no relations aro K more vital to tho individual members of society than those bvtweim tho money earner and tho money investor. And the question which tho student of statecraft must solve is bow far shall organized individuals, called government, interfere between theso two members of society. To BE be a', en, but not broken; to b3 victorious, but not vainglorious; to strive and contend for tho prize, and to win it honestly or lose it cheerfully; to vise every power in tho race, and yet never to wrest an undue advantago or win an unlawful mastery—verily, In all this there are training and testing of character which search it to the very roots; and'^us is a result which Is worth all that it cost us. KXCWLEDGK and Character, like material possessions, arc ours not only to have but to give; but, unlike them, the more wo give of them the more wo have. Tho miser's heap grows smaller if ho shares it with another; but the knowledgo that is shared knows no decline, and character, like tho fragranceof a flower, is forever giving itself out in both conscious and unconscious influence and gaining by what It givos. IT is a mutter of genuine congratulation to notice how many men of first-rate ability are in those days discussing the question of what can bo done for boys and girls in tho way of character building; what can bo done, in fine, in the way of inspiring them with just as hearty a zest irt launching from tho stocks, to ride tho ocean of life, a gallant and seaworthy specimen of a man or woman, as a shipmaster feels in knocking away tho blocks and Bending on a run down tho ways a stanch and beautiful cxamplo of his cwn craft. WIIETHKU a tutor's person is to bo always respected, is a point not yet authoritatively determined. | Whether or not a freshman in a fit of rejoicing~over an athletic victory may ; not bang a tutor about with that mus-' cular energy which he nnd his chain atfetffibhat?l'y" display towards" otio~ tvn--: other in moments of supreme delight.j is a difficult problem. If a tutor's body is to be respected abovo that of a chum, then all connection between •ur own times and tho middle ages" is at once cut off and we ttand in the' strong light of a new and strange civilization. THE club is teaching' women much —not the least of its lessons aro those l of promptness and b revity, and the methods of parliamentary proceedings. Its teachings tend to combine sentiment with business, to familiarize women with public affairs. And by way of suggestion to clubs startod or about to be started in small communities, it is an excellent idea to get some of the larger, well established clubs to send on thoir papers for a reading. • In this way clubs formed in tho vil-1 lages might identify themselves, aauxilliariesto the larger Social Science - clubs of the state, and thus combine their talent for the promotion of tho ! specific aims of all. • IT is not strange that those sanatarily wise and energetic should have bogun to use tho reform brakos agains1; horse car expectorations. One of th« chief rules in hospitals for pulmonarj patients concerns this subject, and nc expectoration, even upon tho grounds of tho premises, is allowed. This is regarded not only as foul matter, bui possibly pregnant with disease germs, and it is, therefore burned. Nowhere is this vulgar habit of expectoration so common as with; uy, and nowhere has it found so much toleration. It is tlrao, however, when the doctors warn us of its danger, tc exercise such control as will make ou; cars and streets more free from )f thTs" olTensive practice." A DANGEROUS PLOT. CHAlTtR XIV. CONTINUED. "Don't you think Hilda will bo happy?" *Oh, she will be a Countess and rlchl Onnsby is not a bad fellow, and I think he quite fulfils her ambition. He worships her, and can cover her with diamonds. But Gwendoline is different; shu wants souittthing more." '"Aud Lord Martin?"' "1 don't know," said Annis. "I never could wnderj>t;ind It She had plenty of adj inirers, and he was a good match from the I world's point of view, aud is really good and ! loud of her. Yea, I am sure Martin id a good j man. But they could not have partud if they had been fond of each other. Is It nut •ad, Viola?" Ay, sad enough, I thought, if matters reimtimxl as they were. But would they? My sleep was broken and uneasy that night. I was wondering what I could do to help Gwendoline, pondering what I knew, nnd ; piecing it with what I only feared, until I Kearcely knew what was real, whether theru \ was any ground for tho supposition that , there was any secret understanding between her and Carden as to his visits—what itwas, how for it went He was false and treacherous, he was clever and unscrupulous; and I dreamed brokenly of his smiling handsome face, the shrubbery aud moonlight,' shadowy rooms and desperate- chess-problems, bishops' gambits and knights' attacks, with confused visions of Gilbert and Gwendoline, Mathilde and Mr. (laacolgne in impossible situations; then of being held back struggling intensely, by an unseen power I knew was Crawford Carden, while Gwendoline, with the satirical laugh lknew so well, threw herself into tho dark waters of the lake, I woke dazeil and weary, with aching head, and, before I had .shaken sleep off thoroughly, my still torpid brains were roused to more definite trouble than the vague alarm for Gwendoline. Annis caiua into my room, pale and frightened. **Unele Rl-hard is very ill, Viola! They sent for tho doctor an hour ago. "Wilkins says be has had a tit!'' * * * * * * • | For a month after that the life of the | muster of St. Gabriel's CI range hung on a ; thread. An able doctor from London was I Bent fcrr; we had a hospital nurse, and either Gwendoline or I was always near him. He j was surrounded by every care, and all that could be done, for him was done. I thiiiik we hardly knew how much the secluded old man, with his strange fancies, his currspeeches, Irad entered into theltves of all of us until he lay ill and helpless. He was not unconscious, and his mind remained wsnderfully acute, and clear. One day lie called rue to his side. "You remember what I told you?" he said. •'If I am not here to remind you—not till you are married—don't forget!" "I remember everything," I answered. "Nothing you wish done shall be left undone or forgotten. But you are better, and/ please Heaven, you will bo with us for long yet." "Perhaps so, perhaps BO," he murmured, "But it's all right—checkmate—all right!" Those were almost the last words 1 heard from klin. We thought he was recovering, when suddenly the cord snapped, and the hsui«l %l the black player, Death moved him gently off the chequered board e-f life. We four women were left alone, together ta St. Gabriel's Grange, lonely and in grief. The drawn blinds made the dim,silent rooms dark mid dreary, and hushed footsteps trod the long corridors. We clung together in those few dark still days between his death End his funeral with a sympathy nothing but e»mmnn grief could have brought about. I never thought <<£ leaving them, lor 1 seemed to be almost one of them then. Rut Hilda still stood aloof, cold and calm. What r-ight-h ad -I,a * i«t itger, toin t vw 1 e u p< m t h H r family circle? It was nothing to her that I had been with him during the last months of his life vniore than any one else.; it was wofH^thannothingVhftt+w wife of his nephew Gilbert Gwendoline, Annis and I were almost as Bisters, and Gwendoline was very quiet, half numbed by the sudden presence of death and its cold influence on her feverish soul. Th« news had been telegraphed to Lord Martin 1'oiueroy, and ho answered briefly that ha would b« in England to join his wife vs quickly as possible. I heard the message with a feeling of relief. Gwendoline said nothing, and betrayed nothing of pleasure or regret Gilbert and Ulric did not come to the house. "It would not be right, Viola," Gilbert said. "I will do nothing that he would not hate mo do while he was alive. Poor uncle Ktohardi I wish he had just mentioned us before he died, to show that he had forgiven us," And I longed to tell him what Mr. Gaseolgne^ had efcld to me; but my promise was a thousand times more sacred now that ho ce-uld not return to charge me with the breaking of i t "D«yeu not think," I aaked, "that his eorweni to Annjs's engagement was prool •f it?" "Xo. lie enly acquiesced in tlmt as he acquiesced in ours, because he did not think it important enough to object to, and because he did not believe it would hold. Carden tells me that uncle Richard said to him that he had very different views for both Annis and you. You were a great favorite with the old gentleman, you know, dear, and I believe Carden was half in love with you himself." 1 felt the toll-tale color rush furiously to fly brow. "Don't believe anything Mr. Carden tells you, Gilbert!" I cried. He smiled, but looked at me a little curiously. "Even Carden may slip into truths onee In a way," he answered. Two o* three distant connections of Mr. Gasc.oigne came down to the funeral, and half Norbury was assembled. In tho graveyard of the little church of Marlands St. Gabriel when he was laid in the vault of his fathers. The summer sun shone though the windows upon tho stone, monuments of Gas- £oignes In armor, Gascoigurs in ruffs, and by FtoxWn and Chantry that churchyard strettcchheedd the fields "white unto Crawford Carden was there, of course, with hypocritical sorrow on hii countenance, thinking perhaps to find himself waster of the Grange in a few hours; Afid the dead man's nephew* were there also, but they did not go back with us to the house, where the blinds were now raised, and tho great dlnlujf-rooui, never before ussd while I had been at the Grange, w.is foriuully arranged for the reading of the will. They would not have it supposed that thoy expected anything from the old man. 1 had no wish to join the family assemblage. 1 did not w»uit to be absent from the funeral, but tho will had no interest lor me since \t did not concern Gilbert. And yet everybody was a little agitated andunxious, and liad been ever uinee Air. Gaseoigne'a death, although until he wan buried they had, for deceucy'a sake, hidden the feeling. No one knew to whom St. Gabriel's Grange wan bequeathed. 1 went upstairs and wandered into the quaint old room, ho familiar, so strangely empty. 1 seemed to aec Mr. Gascoigne in the great arm-chair by the carved stone chimney-piece, and felt an Impulse to push the little chess-table to tho chair's side and arrange the pieces en the squares. As I stood In the centre of the room, look- | Ing round at the figures in armor and tho tapestry and the deep windows and tho ! high-backed piano---which 1 was soon to ' leave, with all else in St. Gabriel's Grange, perhaps never to sea again—Annis ramu to me and laid a soft lumi ou my shoulder. "Viola, 1 have bueu looking for you. Come down; you are one of us now, you know." "I thought your sisters would consider it better that I should stay away as Gilbert has done." " \ o ; your absence is noticed, and Mr. Carden says you are to be present. And I want you—it all seems so dreadful, Viola. I wish they would let me stay away." Her pretty mouth was quivering and her eyes were full of tears. I put my arm round her, and together we went into the ilimughall. l)ark figures wore, seated round—men arid women; tho two sisters with their beautiful pain faces set off by tho crape on their dull black gowns; two or three elderly gentlemen, cousins of old Mr. Gaseoigne., one military, another a country squire; and the wife of the latter, stout and con»ely, her round good-natured countenance- preternaturally solemn. There wero the servants, sitting apart, serious tmd demure—Mr. Gascoigne's old servant, honestly grieving over the loss of his master; and Mrs. Greams, supremely conscious of her position; Lucy, with every smile banished from her rosy face; and the Frenchwoman Mathilele, uoO ing everything from the corners of her black ryes; and all tke other domestics in new black suits, half awestruck by the gravity of the proceedings. Crawford Carden sat at the head of the table, and by his side was un elderly professional- looking man whom I knew to bo the London lawyer. Annis and I retreated into a corner of the long room, and prepared ourselves to listen. Mr. Carden got up to make histirst-announcoment, and spoko in his clear soft accents; but I detected a conscious gleam in his eyes ami a suppressed smile lurking beneath the corners of his dark iriustuche. Instinctively I felt that un hour of1 triumph for him must bo coming; and yet 1 trusted my old master too well to be as confident of it as was the man himself. "I believe," he began, "it will be a matter of considerable surprise to you that the lamented gentleman whose loss wo me dexploring, though he was my client and the client of my predecessor in all his business arrangements, did not oonfido his latest testamentary documents to us. Some two years since he instructed mo in a will which he then drew up; but about six w«cks since, he made another. On this occasion he said that he could not, for obvious reasons, ask my prefessiohitl assistance. I need make, no reference to my partner and his connection with our lamented friend, as you are all aware oQhe ciivujns Uncos and will uuiteTsTiimTM" r. G a sc o i g 11 e' sF»7e IT u gs. ''"itw~as~ not of Gilbert, though, that Mr. Garden was thinking. "Ho desired me to recommend him another firm, and I thereforo introduced te him Messrs. Parker and Harris of Lincoln's Inn; and my friend Mr. Parker has the exist <K!Y of the will at present." He sat down again. It did not need a very sharp eye to discover the eagerness in his face. He had fawned upon and flattered and courted and spied for Mr. Gasccigne for two years; he had lied te incriminate his nephews, lied to inculpate his niecest worked himself "assiduously into favor; and now the reward was t* come.. Others noticed the leok, others who knew nothing of all that I knew.,of Mr. Carden; and some of tho servants stared at him. As for Gwendoline and Hilda, they sat white and calm, to all appearance without emotion; but Gwendoline's teeth were set in-her nether lim and she did not ruise her eyes for one Instant Mr. Parker, ignorant of all the hopes nnd fears surging in the breasH of those around him, produced the bine rinniment, broke the seals, and read as follows in unbusinesslike manner. black dresses and listened to the clergyman's solemn words, hy the grave-sida flowers were in bloom, and great wreaths covered the__cofjln_ and ii_\\ay___beyond : xv Thorp, is always something confusing and perplexing rn n legal paper—un accustomed phrases, toehnio.rU words, rejKMitions, and long preambles. And Mr. Gasooigne's will was a len?thy ono drawn up by the lawyer, but yet with glimpses of the old gentleman's acerbity nnd sarcastic humor running through all. '"The last will and testament of mo, Richard Gascoigne of !St Gabriel's Grange, Marlands St.. Gabriel, in tho county of Fellshire." First, there came a number of small boquo* t«. No one seemed to ho forgotten; those who thought themselves completely out of the secluded man's remembrance found past friendship aud past services wore not forgotten. Tho cousins and the cousin's wife found their journey had not been in vain, ftud so far no one was Inclined to doubt that this was a just and generous will. Indeed the keenness of the old urn's knowledge made them forget to criticise, out of rery wonder.

I almost smiled to think how Mr. Gasroigiie must have chuckled fls h« wrote down nil these things, mid how he must have wished he could be present when his remarks were heard by the Innocent subject* oMhew. Hut Mr. Parker was yawing on to larger sums and to matters more intimately concealing the present occupants at the Grange. "To my niece Gwendoline, wifti of my friend Lord Martin 1'omeroy, 1 leave ten thousand pounds, the uaintlnir bv Turner iu the library, which I have heard her admire, and any two other paintings, not being family portraits, which she may select.

To my niec« Annis Faniuharl leave ten thousand pounds, as 1 promised, and iny best wishes, which t>hu would perhaps hardly expect." The lawyer paused and cleared his throat. My heart beat vehemently In spite of my supposition that 1 was not interested; I felt Aunis's hand tremble. An yet no mention had been made of the Grange, nor of ('rawford Carden, nor of Gilbert and Ulric Which of the three was to possess it? Had not Mr. Giuscoltfws positively assured us he would bwqqeath nothing to his nephews';1 "I think," thy will went on, "thut I have now settled on all my relatives, ray old friends, and my servants all that they could have expected or that I had givmithem any grounds to expect. 1 give aud bequeath to Crawford Garden of Norbury, solicitor, the sura of two hundred pounds for special professional services, with my compliments.

For a moment I sat still, aghast and dumb-stricken, and the lawyer's Toice went on like a machine, saying I know not what, I felt nothing but the scorching gaze of those eyes, saw nothing but the crowd of staring faces. I stiu^led for my senses, and found myself on my tVc.t, gasping iaint- "There must be a mistake!"

"Sol think. The document is doubtless a fictitious one. My auclo was not imbocile!" And then I knew that Mr. Carden was speaking to Mr. Parker, and the next moment he cunie up to me. His face was intensely white, nnd his smile seemed savage in its expression. He took ruy luand—his was cold and damp—and said, in a smooth voice that jarred un my every nervo— ~ "I oongrntulate you. I think you hardly anticipated this!" But Annis rose tip and came and put her arms round me, and gave the tiuo meaning of the strange will. "Dear Viola, I am-so glad! Gilbert will have the Going* niter all. Uncle Richard has kept his word; but jou we he has forgiven Gilbert." And the others saw then tlmt the old man had kept his word.

They hardly knew what to make of their old master's mode of procedure; and even to Murlands and as far as> Norbury I was talked about, and no doubt criticised not always favorably. But every oneiknew Gilbert, and every ene liked him; and the fact that my engagement to him had been known n month before covered a multitude of real or imaginary sins attributed to me. When I look back, I am surprised to remember how kindly I was treated everywhere, for my unexpected fortune must have laid me open to charges of design and intrigue; but Annls's gentle aflectien silently pleaded my cause, and I dare eay they could seo that I was very fond of Gilbert and he of me—and Mr. Gascoigne had established a reputation for eccentricity. Probably they nnderstood his plans—a resolve to keep his woid, a dogged determination not outwardly to acknowledge claims he had once put aside. In effect it was the same; he knew I should in a few months be Gilbert's wife, and I was but a trustee until then. TO BK CONTINUED.

If it falls on Friday the following year is looked forward to as one of great surprises. An undent manubcript in the Uritish museum has the following1 to say of Thursday which has u beurin^ on the events of 1891. It must be conceded that in some respects it hits the right nail on the Head: "If Chrintmaa day on ThurHday be, A windy winter ye shall see; Windy weather in each week And nurd tempt-sta, strong and thick. The summer ahull be good and dry; Corn and beasts ahull multiply: That yeur is good fur land to till; KingB and princew shall die by akllL If u child burn thut day shall be, It snull happen right well for he; Of deeds, he shall be good^and Htable, Wise of hpeech and returnable. Whoso thut day goes thieving about, He shall be punished, without doubt; And if sicknewa that day betide, It shall quickly from you glide." Last winter was a windy one. The crops have been wonderful. Kings and Princes too have died by skill. The minor prophesies can only be summed up by those directly interested. Of Questionable Value.

Many are the men who when they realize that Christmas is approaching look into their affairs and conclude that this year the day must pass by without any special celebration. Not many, we fancy, roach this conclusion out of pure meanness. tis~dul the miserable Scrooge whose tribulations Dickens has made known to us, but. as a rule, these decisions are arrived at upon very sound if very sad investigations into accrued profits and pressing liabilities.

He doth protest so much that the children scarcely credit him, and secretly believe that Christmas will be celebrated as usual.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH \ SOUTH LYON. From the.Excelsior. It is commonly reported that the enterprise of a town can.be accurately estimated by the advertising columns of their local paper. While building fence along the M. A. L. Ry. last Friday the section men killed six snakes of the garter variety, and Foreman Pearman thinkg it was nothing extra of a day for snakes either. From the Ticket. There is a probability that a national bank will soon be organized a t Milford. Parties of the Rational bank of Perry N. Y., offer to ^bsrribo_ half the ~stock necessary, if the/ citizens of Milford will take the other half. They propose that the officers should bo residents of Milford'in whom the people would have the utmost confidence. STOCKBRIDGE. From t h e Sun. Dr. A very will bo absent from his dental office from Dec. 24 to Jan. 1, as he intends spending the holidays with friends and relatives in and about Howell. While Mrs. Frank Worden was spending a few days with her sister, Mrs. Barton, near Pinekney, her two-year-old boy in playing, fell striking his head against the stove making a severe wound' on his skull. The Httly fellow was able to be brought home, Wednesday. Wonder whether our farmers are aware of the fact that they render themselves liable to a fine for bringing their poultry to market with their legs tied together.

Now when he re- Jlects for n moment it would seem as though no kind-hearted farmer wouUl follow the cruel and illegal practice. Holiday Bates.

H«w many times did I go over in toy mlnfl the miR oonfldential interview there bad Wwi tureen Mr. Gascoigne **4 me? I had prowl.**! not to reveal what passed until my rnurri»ge-day, and I knew now that he must kavw resolved then, when he saw his intention* as U» Hild. and Gilbert were flaaliy frustrated, what should b« his course. The servants, the old clerjjynftan, even the cousins, were fairly friendly and congratulatory. None of them hud expected more than tlwy had got, and I do not think any of th« m reiimttrd greatly the peculiar way 1^ whit-!i Mr. Gascolgne had chosen to settle the la iiJy feud. For the Thornea, too, w«re art 1/ortorabUs family, and the daughter of my fatln r was no unfit match for the heir of St GabiLI s Grange and the name of Gascoigne. GlUx'rt himself was puzzled as much as any c and even dfdarod a doubt as to whet, i the accepted reading of tha will conld tie correct. "It seems to me," lie said, "ihat my uncU lather intended to prevent you from inarrytnyne by leaving mvrethan I can ever offer yoft and a house from which he exiled me." I told him he had been a lawyer »o long, lie <vm)d scarcely believa in common-sense vieu> of things; and then he laughed, and •aid my wealth had made me impertinent, feat his fcrows remained knitted and hiseyea grave* I thought Mr. (Jasooigne's nlrces were Wonderfully good to we, seeing that they must have expected to iuberit the Grange, T6 be sure, Lord Martin Pomeroy had his cwn beautiful bouse, Lord Ormsby was exceedingly rich, and Ulric Gascoigne had not looked for so much as he was to get with hta pretty wife, and would, I was pure, prefer th*t Gilbert should succeed to his rightful property. But still the house was so beautiful, the property so fine, and I myself BCfch a mere stranger and interloper, that I Wished a hundred times a day my kind ecipeatrkj old master had consented freely to forgive his nephew in the face of the world, ana spared ma this painful and anomalous position. However, for a time there was no change to their manner, except that Annis ww more affectionate and tranquilly happy than ev«r. Hilda showed no s4gn, and Gwendoline was strangely passive. I thought the calm WM the calm of fair arid settled weath- •%f% but the air was too still for that It was like the stillness of the electricity-charged fctmosphere, when birds are silent and the •foments breathless before the thunderitorm. - — - - —• - CHAPTER XVI. flash of the storm came upon me one day as I was sitting in the morningroom, the pleasant little room where I spent most of my time now with Lady Martin, Hilda, and Annis. I had been reading, but the book lay unheeded on my knee; I had broken off to watch a blackbird on the lawn, and had noticed at the same time tRai already th« time-trees were growing golden in tlfttftndthe chrysanthemums were coming Into bloom. And as I gazed out on the terrace I pondered the wonderful thought that all I saw wa« mine—the room, the house— and I looked round at the dainty pictures and the furniture and the Japanese knickknacks— mine only in trust for Gilbert, but mine as its mUtress when H was Gilbert's. I thought how good Providence had been to me—how wonderful, how strange to have giren me »• grand and true and noble a lover i Our marriage was not to be postponed rery long. I was g»'ng home for a while first—home, where the news of my stupendous fortune had greatly fluttered the dovecot Lady Martin would, I hoped, join her husband. Hilda was to return to London, In care of the military cousin's wife until ihe became Lady Ormsby; and Gilbert and I were to settle down at the Grange, with Ulric and Annis at the Lodge. Did not life leem pleasant as it w w unrolled before my eyes? Could my book be as enchanting? So I sat dreaming, with a smile on my face, when Hilda came Into the room. She looked very fair in her mourning, and herpale gold hair shone in contrast to the long black dress that trailed after her. But dur-, Ing all the months I hid been at the Grange •h* had never spoken to me pleasantly; the tappbire eyes bad never softened, nor the proud curve of the mouth grown gracious for roe. Now, as she advanced and stood •ppoalte to me, the tlxed those eyes on my face with a gleam like the glitter of bright •teel; but there was a slight tremor in her bell-Iiko voice. "I think It fair to tell you, Miss Thorne," she began—she never called me Viola—"that you may possibly be resting on false security at present, and that in a short time you will find the scene changed. I tell you this,that you may be prepared to hear from my lawyer, and also that you may know what 1 think, and that every one is not deceived by you." I looked up at her wonderingly. "What do you mean, Miss Farquhar?" I asked. "I will tell you what I mean." she answered calmly. "Simply this. You came here, to find an eccentric old man and three girl* you thought, I suppose, fools. You hunted up family quarrels* and spied Into farniiy secrots No; allow me tofipeak." For I was about to interrupt her with Indignant anger; but I let her speak on, holding back my wrathful words; and the clear voice grew more passionate and intense. "You shall hear me out, Miss Thorne. You are clever—I admit it. I did not think •o at first, and I scorned to interfere with you; and so far you have been successful. You exerted your influence over a childish old man by telling lies about his nieces and betraying confidences you should hare been the last to reveal. T* be safe on both.sides, you threw yourself into tha way of his nephew, and managed him with brazen skjll too. But 1, at least, shall not tamely submit to your success. Gilbert is befooled, and you have charmed Annift, ohlld as she ' Is; but I can act for myself and flfht against j your schemes. And I tell you this—that I intend tonght my uncle's will to th* last, i and, whether lawyers and judges can or ; cannot be'broaght to see the influence you ! •obtained over a decrepit, balf-crazed inva- I lid, you shall, at least, be better known than ! Jon are now f" j When ih« paused, her voice, still clear j and steady, had In it the white heat of suppressed rage. I was startled, bewildered, confounded. But I tried to antwer her quietly. I wanted to be at peace with them all, and Hilda waa the last who held out against me, "You do not bflleve what you have said, I am quite sure, Hilda. You know Mr. Gascoigne was as el«*r-heade«l as yourself; and you know, and I know too, that he left the Grange to me that Gilbert might have it I did m>t want it; 1 have no wish for it now but for liis sake. It is simply preposterous to suppose h» would ever have bequeathed it to me, or that I could have schemed for such an outragecus thing. If I havft done you any wrong, I am sorry; but you have no right to insult me by Huch words as those." "Insult you!'' she cried. "l"am only preparing you for what every one will say before long." "I have not sought," 1 went on, "to learn a stable word of your private concerns, 1 asked for no one's secretn; once told me, i have betrayed none. For betraying confidences you ciin hardly impugn me, you who tried to Injure me, even at the cost of your sinter's happiness, by telling my secret, which you had learned, to your uncle." She made no answer;"but a faint color Btole over her face. "You have beau very hard and very cruel to me since I came and put myself in some measure at your mercy, Hilda, and! thought at fir>t you were unju.st withou.t intending to be so. You supposed me to be everything you had imagined I might be, andyuu never sought to learn whether your supposition was true or not. But you cannot believe in these accusations. Why are you so unjust," "Am I unjust?" one said. "At least I am no hypocrite. Why did you come? Why did you stay when you knew we wished you gone, and allow yourself to be thought a spy and an informer?" "You had no right, no excuse to think such abominable things of me. Ask your sisters if, a week after I came, they did not both ask me to stay. I came, innocent and ignorant of the persecution which you and Lady Martin had determined to subject me to, and I stayed to tight against your prejudices, since they had no ground In reason or Justice. I know my position tempts you to say hard things; but it is fair and right tiiat the Grange should come to Gilbert, and I hold it for him. LordOrmsby's home Is a hundred timeR grander, Hilda; you need not be envious of Gilbert and me." I had,thought that she was growing softer, and I did not *p*jak angrily. I.was wounded to the heart tiiat Gilbert'i cousin, should cherish such Implacable hatred of me, and sorely grieved, but not angry. Now however her 'ace was set more relentlessly than ever. "Gilbert and you 1" she echoed in bitter tones. "You talk well, Miss Thome; you should have been an actress. But I know you too well to be deceived by evasion and clap-trap! You have heard what 1 intend to do. I have no more to say to you." I did not attempt to say another word, and she left me. I marvelled over and pondered what she had said, and forjj time 1 was very miserable, wretched, and jm Hied" tlmF "any one should think so cruelly of me, and that one of Gilbert's relatives should be my enemy. But aa I thought of her words I became more wroth, and the hot Indignation dried up my tears. I had done no wrong, I had injured no one; it would not have been right that she should inherit tlie Grange. What was it to her that Gllberc had chosen me t« be his wife, to share whatever fortune should be his; and how dared she thus insult 1m promised wife in what was already my own house? I should have understood tbetter her words and actions, which se«med to me then madly unreasoning, had I known that th« lawyer she consulted was Crawford Garden, who had told her the lies invented by his own black heart, had told her that my promise was given to hini-him whom I hated from the first moment 1 heard his fa se voice—and only broken when I learned that the old man I dissimulated to was relenting towards his nrpliew—had told her that it was I who had persuaded Mr. Gascoigne to leave the property as it wa» left, tnd that she, Hilda, had played ray game in betrayin? the secrecy with which I theatrically enshrouded for a while my meetings with Gilbert. "I do not doubt," Carden had said, <4that you can get the will set aside on the ground of unsound mind or undue influence; but you will see how impossible it is for me to undertake the case. I believe she is marrying Mr. Gilbert Gascoigne now only to silence talk and stop such an action." They could do him little good, these wanton, deliberate lies; but he knew I hated him, and he sought but to injure me in any way he could, infuriated as he was by the slight put upon him by Mr. Gaswigne's will, for which he imagined I was partly responsible. One or two, who know the story, wiy that they believe he loved me and wished in any way to break my engagement with Gilbert Rut I do not credit if. There are many ways of loving, I have learned to kmm; but I do not believe one spark of real affection dictated his treachery. It was ambition—ambition which made, him feign love for me when he watched my growing favor in Mr. Gaseolgne's eyes, amhdlsappointed ambition which made htm anxious to wreak his ven^i'ance on me, whether by so doing he might or might not think ever t*> obtain for himself the riches of the Grange. He was furious too with Gilbert, who frankly and steadfastly independent, had won what he had plotted and lied to win. I can understand that jealous love was the mainspring of Hilda's cruelty; it filled her whole heart and mind, and perverted her reason so that she may have accepted as truth what she was ready and willing to believe. But he'.' Nd; there was not room for love in Ills self-absorbed and scheming life. But of all this I thought ^nothing then. I guessed nothing of Hilda'sffealousy; It never for a mojpent occurred1 to me that she would consult Mr. Carden, and I fell to wondering what would come of her threat, whether she could do anything, supposing others thought as she did, to dispossess Gilbert and HM» of the Grange. I never imagined it Was I only she wished to drive away. My every thought was bound up in Gilbert. I told Gwendoline of the threat, but of Hilda's insultinc words I told DO one. She only laughed sarcastically. "You need m>t be afraid, Ylola. Hilda can do nothing, if o OJQJ e\*t will ever %i> cuse you of influencing my poor uncle. la there any other will?" "I don't think there is one in existence." "Then,what can it matter? Without a will, everything, Hilda's fortune and my own also, goes to Gilbert; and I do not suppose Hilda can dispute existing arrangements without Gilbert's aid. So long as you two love euuh other, child, you need not care." "Are you sure?" I asked her wistfully. "Are you sure," she said, in return, "that she cannot make Gilbert believe as she does? If accusations are made, will he stand by you through them all?" "I hope HO," I faltered. "I think he would." She put her hands on my shoulders and looked me keenly in the face. "There should be no 'thinking,' Viola," she said earnestly. "Don't marry him unless you can truat him wholly, and he you. Take my word for it, nothing will make marriage bearable but conndencb in on« another." And then there came before me the honest handsome face of my lover and his clear true eyes. "VV» do trust each other," I answered proudly and fondly. She turned away with a little sigh. "Happy child!" she munmin-d softly. "Don't fret over Hilda's words," she added aloud, in gentle accents. "IMieve me, it is only empty talk." And 1 did believe her. If I grew sad sometimes as I remembered them, I feared no evil result. CIIAFTEIt XVII, A letter came from Lord Martin romerby to tell his wife when he should be in England, and expressing a bop« that she would return with him to India in October. "I suppose you will go?" said Hilda. "I suppose so," answered (Gwendoline, in those dull inanimate tones she always fell, Into when speaking of her husband. As tlie time of hi* coming drew near—for he was to follow closely on his letter—I fancied she grew restless and agitated; but that was natural enough, seeing how long tht'y had been parted. One morning 1 came upon her unexpectedly in the drawing-room. Sh« was sitting by a low table, one elbow resting on it, and th« other hand raising the large photograph album on which she was gazing earnestly. She shut tlie book, hurriedly and rose from her seat when she saw me, and a crimson flash dyed her face. "Do you want me?" she asked quickly. And when I said "No," she left the room- Half heedlessly 1 took up the album, marvelling at her agitation. One silver clasp had, unnoticed by her, caught th« leaves and marked the place at which she had held the volume open. There waa only on« portrait in the page, within a border of painted flowers and leaves—a large photograph of Martin Pomeroy. Why nhould she rise in confusion from looking* at her husband's portrait? And there was a tear-drop on the page. Was she afraid of him, or anxious, now that he was coining back to her? I looked intently at the picture. It was a good face—not handsome, but what some people would call cold and stern. Yet there was a thouglLtful look in the deep-set eyes and a kindly expression, I fancied, about the firm mouth. He looked a man to respect and esteem. He was ft good deal older than Gwendoline; but he was barely forty, and she was six-audtweuty. Gwendoline still never alluded to his return, nor in any way betrayed how she would,welcome it. If I tried to draw her to speak of him, she answered, with a quietness almost amounting to restraint, always in the same dead voice. I knew this was a morbid unhealthy state, and longed even for a return of her old petulance. But she passed her days, and walked and talked, apparently only half knowing what she did, half conscious ami wholly callous. Her sisters never noticed this strange phase, Hilda had wrapped herself in her impenetrable pride, concentrated on her own plans; Annis was too happy, full of dreams of Ulric and her future; and 1 was even yet little better than a stranger, ignorant of her past life, entitled to none of her confidence. My thoughts, too, we^e very busy with my own life. I was going home very soon, and Gilbert was preparing for an early marriage; and I was very' happy in his love, very peaceful and glad in my great unmerited fortune, very thankful to Heaven for a good man's love. I had no fear of Hilda since Gwendoline had known her threat. I thought 6he wou.d and could do no more,, and I so shrank front deepening disunion in the family that I did net tell Gilbert what she had said. It waa nothing to me whether tit Gabriel's Grange was mine or Gilbert's, seeing that nothing could part us. • • • # • » • One Sunday evening Annis and Hi Ida had gone to the village chufehr-att<l-Gwendottneand 1 were alone together. She had not been well all the day, pleading a headache, and she sat now sitently in her low arm-chair, a book In her hand, but its pages never turned. I had been writing to my mother; aird, when I finished the letter, I turned to Gwendoline ami offered to read to her. A sting of self-reproach shot through me for not haying offered sooner, for doing »o llt;Je to relieve her pain, as I s*w how terribly white her face was, how h»*avy were her haze! t\\v:j.

According to the technical journal "Iron," a society has been formed in Hamburg to put in application a procedure ofpneumatie transport for travelers, by means of cylinders known under the abridged name of tubes. In the first place a line will be constructed between two places some twentyodd miles apart, and the distance will be traversed in eleven minutes. The cylinder in which the travelers will be placed will be about three and_a_hal| feet in diameter and six feet Ionic, holding only three travelers. This cylinder will be closed as soor as tin1 travelers have taken their places, and the somewhat circumscribed space in a special reseivoir. ' The cylindrical tubes of iron will be manufactured by the iVIannesheim. procedure, and the maximum rapidity will be attained in thirty seconds. It is hoped that the ] i id! ion wrapped around a perfectly true cylinder, mounted to permit of turning. In front of the cylinder is placed a bar, upon which is a carriage containing a tracing-point, which bears lightly upon the* gelatine print just as does the stylus of the phonograph upon the wax cylinder. I t rises and falls according to the greater or less relief due to the various degrees of light to which the film has been exposed. It is not possible here to'explain the exact mode oftransmission, but it has been done over a single wire, pictures being transmitted a distance of twenty miles, with a 100-volt current, and we are promised still more wonderful results by the use of the alternate current. An institution for the treatment of inebriates by the use of of bichloride of gold has been founded at Northville. Dr. Keeley, of Dwight, Illinois, furnishes the prescriptions.

He knows that truth ia many-sided, and he is too sensible to imagine that he has yet seen all its •ides. Ihus he has no disposition to dispise or decry other parties or sects or social circles than his own, still leas to court or affect aa ignorance ol them. SOME men who have frequently crossed the ocean say that they were never sea-lick. Let him who standetb take heed lest he tall Those familial with the briny deep have seen old seamen, old stewards, old captains gc down when out of fix. These remarkt are suggested by the fact; not al together strange, that the pilot whc fruided the Inman steamship City o; New York out of Queenstown harboi on her late westward passage got so sea-sick that he could not leave th« boat, and had to be carried to New York. As A soldier, the pigeon is unknowi in this country. He has never participated In any of our wars, and, consequently his value in army service U unappreciated. In Europe his importance is recognized and he is made useful at well as ornamental in fact, he is regarded as a necessary adjunct to the standing army of almost every nation. His successful adaptation at a messenger during the sie?e of Paris, in the Franco-German war, directed attention so powerfully to his usefulness that no great European genera! would now' regard preparations foi war complete without a supply o; these winged carriers. THERE la nothing to-day that so delights the average correspondent 01 that more interests the average read, er. irrespective of inherent probabili' ty, than a war report People take stock In this who are the least credulous of men in other affairs. If a po. llceman treads on the corns of an at tache of legation somewhere, you art beseicred with interrogatories as U the probability of a bombardment oi • New York within the week; and the questions usually come from those whc ought to know better. Looking at the ease and certainty with which th<! the first faint notes of a dog fighi | will collect instantly all the small! boys In the neighborhood, and then j noticing the universal hunger foi news of aa outbreak between nations in some part of the globe, men do look like boys grown talL BESIDES the paradox which because a man's life ia certain to be short jus- ' tifies him in cutting it still shorter, the ' fault with the logic that justifies suicide is two-fold. It assumes that a mac can do no good in the world because he is certain of a slow death, which is altogether wrong1; and it asserts thai there are grounds for destroying life, which proves altogether too much. I) the sacredness of human life can be eet aside for such reasons why may not one man kill another on the same grounds? The man who takes human life offends against the canon, "Thou •halt not kill," whether he takes hia own lite or that of another. So that il infirmity, inability to do useful work, the certainty of suffering and CMTV to family or friends are reasons for a. man to take his own life, they aro equally reaftonj for people to give the surceast' of sorrow to those of their friendi o much .afflicted. —I If we had in the streatb of New York one-tenth the do#s they hav« in Constantinople what a row we thould make about it, auys the New York World. How tho public would rise and rage, what fault everybody would find, what leading articles would be writen on the subject, how the board of health would be buried under an avalanche of complaints, and what eloquence and resolutions would be poured out at public meetings to denounce the canine nuisanca Perhaps, 1, 000.000 street dogs would have vsomo influential friends in and near the city hall, for they would solve the great garbage problem. One thousand car-loads a day of garbage that has to be carried away and dumped makes a big hole in the mouey voted for the commissioner of street-cleaning, and if there were a system by which all that garbage conld be converted Into a yellow.dog on the Bpot* and cbuld trot off wagging it* tail, not costing the commissioner a cent it is evident that that honorable gentleman would be worse than a heathen if he did not come out strong ia defense of 'this noble and useful animal." I say that the garbage might trot wagging its tail speaking after the manner of those accustomed to the do? as we know him. But the dog of Constantinople does not wag his tail. Either that expression of canine satisfaction is unknown in his latitude, or life is too serious for indulgence in such trivialities. The dog has a good tail, but its relation to happy mooda of doglife is unknown—mainly, perhaps, because there are no such moods. One of the common lines in the daily reports touches things in sight—4 ton in sight," '-silver in sight,11 If any reporter should be required to ffive an_ account of the ''cotton j n sight1' in Constantinople at any given moment his troubles would begin. Naturally, it is a morable quantity, and, as with a very tall column of figures y >u get a different result every time you add it up. Stop in the street any whtr • JUKI at any moment and the number ,.il never be less than a dozen a u i may be twenty. They are all asleep. Four or five are on the sidewalk on each sido of the way. Some stood close up to the wall, some anywhere along the middle and others are in the roadway, others in tho gutters, which are dry, or else fairly in the middle, just where the carts, cabs or other vehicles may rattle along at any instant Here and there half a dozen may be on foot, but never on the alert, for even those who are awake and are so presumably under the influence of hunger, stand around with a lazy, listless, sluggish air of total dissatisfaction— or at least supremo indifference to all incidents of life. These dogs are permanently in a etate of starvation. Nobody feeds them, and there is innrvelously little waste from the kitchens of the people, so that the refuse that goes into the street is mostly bare bones or ihe inedible elements of food. Upon this the multitude of dog's must live, and the stealthy avidity with which they will run up to lick up even a grease spot on tho pavement where some little shopkeeper's soup, cooking in front of his door, has boiled over, tells vividly tho rage of hunger from which they are always suffering. These packs of doga thus starved would eat the people themselves if they had the courage of any good canine race. The doga seem to have one recognized enemy—this is the two-footed scavenger, who goes about with a basket and a long iron hook gathering bones, &c. They seem to understand j that.be divides with them the treasures of the garbage heap, and they set up a general howl of rage when he comes near. Hut they keep out of t reach of,,his lon£ iron honk. Him ! they detest as a rival aad a robber, but thajshAve not tho courage of their detestation. I nover saw tiiem look even with race upon any other human creature, but they are fifraid of him all the same. : Their general condition is bad enough, but to see them upon a cold, rainy day is a pitiable picture. Krom i whatever dry or warm coiner they ! may find for themselves, they are j forced by b^unger. and the poor result | of their hunt for a bone does not help to keep them warm, and with tho misery of wet and cold added to that Of starvation, they return to lirid their warm places taken by others who were before without even that little comfort. Only a, stolid, heartless, brutal people would consent to see BO I much misery around and about them at all times. The dog of Constantinople is what we should call • a yaller dog." Tiio prevalent color is a tawny, dull yel- • low. rather lighter than the tan in our black-and-tan dogs. He has lonf hair, but it is not long enough to give him a rough or shaggy coat. His nose ; Is sharp, his" tail is bushy, and he is ( about the size of a coyote. Hl& aspect in at nno* wicked and mean, and his general expression touches »ny and every point betweeu the look of a fox and a wolf, but never has the frank, optin, pleasant confidence of the dog as we know him. He would be ferocious if he had the courage, but he ia rather a stealthy sneak thun a bold tramp. SKOBELEFF'S REVENGE. the Great Uuitlua General Ueturueil the Cttr'i Iusult. During tho Russo-Turkish war, writes Archibald Forbes in tno Niue- Uienih Century, the day after tho passage of the Danube had boeu made good tha emperor of Russia crossed the river to congratulate and thank hii gallant soldiers. In front of the long, maasive linn formed on tho elope below Sistova, awaiting the coming of the great white czar, stood Drugomiroff, Yolchine and Skobeleff, the three generals who had been the leaders of the successful attempt. DragomirotT, the divisional commander, tho emperor embraced and gave tho cross of St. George; he shook hands* warmly with Yolchine, the brigade commander, and gave him, too, a St. George erosM to add to the decorations which this cheery little warrior had been gathering from boyhood in the Caucasus and Central Asia. .Then tho emperor strode to where Skobeleff stood, aad men watched the little soene with interest, for it was notorious that Skobeleff was in disfavor with hia sovereign, and yet of him the caraps were ringing with the story of his conduct of Aho previous morning. Would Alexander maintain his umbrage or would he make it manifest that ho had been displeased by Skobeleff s heroism? For at least a minute tho czar hesitated, as the two tall, proud, soldierly men confronted each other; you could trace in his countenance the struggle between disapproval and appreciation. It waa soon over—and the wrong way for Skobeleff. The emperor frowned, turned short on his heel, and strode abruptly away, without a word or gesture of greeting or recognition. A man of strpng^prejudices, he was not yet able to exercise Tfomhis mTntT the calumnies that had blackened to him the character of Skobeleff. Thai officer, for his part, flushed scarlet, then grew deadly pale, and seemed to conquer an impulse as he set his teeth hard and maintained his disciplined Immobility. It was a flagrant insult, in the very face of the army, and a gross injustice; but Skobeleff endured it in a proud Bilenco that seemed to mo very grand, nor did 1 ever hear him allude to the slur. The time soon came to that gallant and brilliant soldier when he could afford to be magnanimous. As the campaign progressed ho distinguished himself again and again, so that his name became a synonym in the army for splendid work as well as for opportune skill. On tho 3rd of September Skobrletf, after exploit on exploit, devised and led the storm of the Turkish position in Loftcija, and drove his adversaries out (afthW strong place. On the following night at his own dinner table in the Gorni Studen headquarters, the emperor stood up and bade his guests to honor with him the toast of "SkobelefT, the Hero of Loftcha." It is not given to many men to earn a revenge so full and eo grand as that. A Secret Society. Regarding the arrest lately of 50 members of a secret society known as "lnfiwna Legge," a Rome correspondent writes:—The rules of this society of malefactors remind one of the secret societies ol the Middle Ages. The members pay a monthly contribution, and practice regularly at stabbing with the dagger. To be admitted, candidates have to undergo several rites one being the infliction of a large wound in the breast by the chief of the society with a dagger. AROUND THE PLANET.

On Tuesday Lord Martin was expert i\l to arrive. It was curious how little was said sfeo-Ui. )ilm..-Tlio subject appeared to bo avoidod by common consent, and I feared Annis's words were true—Gwendoline had made an unhappy choice, and hence her misery and restlessness at, the prospect of beiny reunited to her husband; or it might be the thought ot' lo.v\intc her Ihidish homo and jjoiuij into a distant country which distressed her, though in truth she had n;lver manifested any love for the (r.ai.^N which she called her prison, nnd had. uvuwM^a loncin.ir to 'ravel. JShe Iookt'd just, as white and ill on Monday, and remained most of the day in her own room. In the ev,!i'n:_'I was at Marlands, and.rfttnrninc, I met .Gilbert, and we wa'ke>1 together up 8;.

"Gilbert," I said earnestly, "1 wish you would not speak In that way. You know Mr. (iancoigne meant you to have the Grange, and only left It me to carry out his plan.

A sudden little gustof wind sent a shower of withered leaves and of raindrops upon us as we kissed under the sighing trees, by the Jow ivy-grown wall, and parted till next night—only till the next night.

They uro one of thu chief cau.st-s of mortality in thut country. Great efforts havo been made by the British government to destroy them, but with very little success. I'nfortunately tho natives regard them as sacred. They consider the cobra in particular aa embodying some sort of divinity, and it id customary for thom to allow these frightful creatures as pets on their premises. Otters of bounties for serpents' heads have been di.-oouraired by the discovery of f/no practice pursued "by many low-caste Hindoo.-* of breeding snakes artificially .to supply the official demand. In that warm climate snakea propagate their species very fast, nnd their venom accumulates rapidly. Although tho cobra is t h e most dreaded of all, the krait and other varieties are hardly less deadly. They swarm everywhere. The cobras are especially fond of taking up their residence in gardens and under verandas. No cure for a cobra's bite ia known to science, al hough the.ro is good evidence that th • native doctors sometimes rescue victims by remedies which they keep secret. Dr. liuckiund mentions that the teeth of serpents aro not always found in their mouths, says the Chicago Herald. There is a snake in Africa that lives upon the eggs of birds. winch he purloins from t'io nasts. It has no teeth in its mouth, but, they deveiopo in its belly, being formed in a very curious manner. They are not true teeth, but certain littlo bones, parts of the vertebra', are made to sorve a like purpose, one projecting froua the center oTelch vertelTra. The end of these bones pass through the wall of the stomach, being covered with eruinvd like ru il teeth, so that on looking into the stomach a row of wh.it looks exactly liko teeth is sevn n% it-* b . c k part. Tho e^^, when swallowed by tiie suake go.js down into tne tlomneh and is broken against the teeth by the pressure of abdominal walls, i-lomg thus broken the contents of the egg cannot escape, as would havo been tho case if it had been broken in ihe mouth.

'J'he buHinoa»i» ona of tho most unhealthy in ttio world. Totters commence work when about 1^ years of Hgo and at 135 porceptibl/ begin to Ueeliuo. Tho average tradt* lify of the press rs ib 17 years and of tho kilnmen fourteen and a half. 'Pulmonary disease* are common among the falipmakers. turners and jigtfermen. The revolving- molds keep a cloud of clay duat about t h e workmen which they cannot, avoid inhaling. In many lactories tho elay is mixed in damp cellars, which increases the liability to colds. Hollowware pressera stand whilo at work. and are obliged to stoop a grout deal, tho sue and weight of the molds make their work laborious, and tho rapid motion agitates the duat to the injury of their throat and lungs. The sagger makers aro liable to overstrain their muscles in placing *he eaggera in the kiin. An ordinary sagger- when titled with ware weighs from fifty to ono hundred pouads, and after about twenty years of lifting such weigths the workmen begin to decline, in tho decorative departments there is danger of lead poison ing from the dry coloring matter. At joining the trade the mortality i* low, but aft^er inn ago of 35 years it is far above the average. In England this mortality has been especially noticeable, it b.?ing exceeded only by costennongers. miners and hotel servants. This high death rate wa-s so remarkable that it caused l>r. William 1'arr, ivgibU-;- general of England, to ask the pertinent question: "What can be d ;-ne to save the men from dying 60 fast in the potteries'?11 In America the men are~n\Tue7> "butter 63 than iu Engutml. Our factories a r e larger, befer lighted and belter ventilated. Anthracite coal used hero prevents the Mnoky atmosphere wkich surrounds tho English pottery district, says the L'hau'au (uari. There i» a constant betterment in the sanitary conditions of American i's'abiibhment^. but tu>'re is room for further improvement, especially in tho avoidaiic-j of dampness and dust. It is not so much the physical labor that, injures the potter as it is tim dust arising from the materials in which h»* works. If this con id bn obviated tho business would be charigM from t\ short-lived and unhealthy occupation to ono lon^-livod a'ui healthy. This wi 1 undoubtedly be brought about with the prnj-res-; of In vivil ;or> -\nd tlio advent of 1 eitcr ecoruxjiie {'o:t. .tionn oil'efiug larger* opportunities for labor and causing employers to cor.pete for the best workmen by all'oi'o.ng ttu.-ro bi.-lt- •[• a L d t i i.fttlfiur l.<>Kt i n t h ' I have often laughed to see bow quick one will change from sense to noib use —from a bright man to a pitifu. lieinentel nti tvt th<; r.ionu'tit wh(\'i he hrst r ali^e,-, that he is roaily lost.

It seems Geiman soap-makers ube linseed oil largely in their work, but the failure of the llussain flax crop shortened their supply and they were obliged to look for a substitute. A chemist discovered an oil suitable for these purposes could be made from corn, nud a good many thousands of bushels will hereafter bo diverted into their new channel. A large number of fish hunters have made the most of the fine ice and skating on Long lake recently. The hunters skate along until they see a fish, when they get between the fish and deep water, and an exciting race then begins. The fish is chased in the shallow water until tired, when a blow on the ice stuns it, and the ice is cut and the fish captured.—Fenton Independent. The legislature will have to try again. ••••> The destruction of the steamship Abysinnia by fire, on a voyage from New York to Liverpool, brings up again the vexed question as to the spontaneous combustion. It is to this cause the fire is said -to be attributed, and the query then arises as to what the conditions were that caused the combustion. It is a matter of the gravest interest to the traveling public, as well as to shipowners, to merchants and underwriters, and it is to be hoped that a thorough investigation will cast additional light upon the subject. If it is true that everybody connected with the World's Fair has obtained a lottery privilege from the State of Honduras, with the view of perpetuating and abbetting the Louisiana iniquity, then the public will look to the World's Fair authorities to cut the connection with promptitude and dispatch. No lottery taint should be permitted to. attach itself to___the fair or any of its representative's* in any capacity.—New York Press. We cannot see why the government shquld make it a crime to run a lottery on the World's Fair grounds while it allows the fair to be open tfirthe Sabbath.

Again the cycles of time have ! sped on in their course, never ! slacking for a moment in their i career, hurrying, seemingly, na if • trying to make each yeur shorter ; than the last, giving no warning, until now the old year 1801 is j burried and the new 1802 has dawned upon us full of life and vigor. One more volume of the history of life? has been closed, and the seal of time placed upon it, never to be broken until time shall be no more. Have we gained anything during the year that has passed and gone that we (ran use to advantage in the present? Lot us glance over the past and see. Have we had success? let us remember how wo achieved them, but not look back complacently at the victory's passed whilo there are still greater conquests to be won. Let us profit if possible by the past, and press forward with renewed vigor and try to excel in tho future. Perhaps we have had some miserable failures during the past year, as well as success. Let us not set brooding over them but stir ourselves and shun a like result the present year. We should learn more by one failure than by two successes. The old year is dead and buried. Bet us bury all our past annoy-- ances, vexatious, quarrels, trials, etc. with it. The good book says: "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." Let us be sure that the sun of the new year finds us with good will to all men and malice to none, and then shall there be peace on earth. We have crossed the threshold and entered another year. The new volume has been opened with its pages clean, pure, and white. It remains for you and me, dear reader, to keep them so. Instead of looking back upon the past, let us look forward to tho days that are before us. Let us begin anew. How to avoid wui\ There are two ways in which a i war between the United States and [ Chili can be avoided. One way is i for the American Government to the traditional policy of the nation , for the past one hundred years, I and to accept the insulting statement in which Chili has attempted ' vindicate and uphold the massucre j of American sailors because they wore the American uniform, while at the same time presisting in a course of studied insult and contempt toward the American people. By forgiving those things by accepting a dinner us sufficient apology, war can be avoided. It should be needless to say that such is not and will not be the attitude of President Harrison's administration, and that the IJnitod States are safe in his guardianship. Another way for war to be avoided is for Chili to do what she can well do without any sacrifice, of prestige or sense of degradation. Let Chili comply with the temperate and moderate request of the United States for genuine redress and apology, when all will be well. Chili need have no hesitation in saluting the flag to which the natives of Great Britian and France have struck their colors in the past, the flag which has waved over the halls of the Montezimias, and which to-day floats over the largest civilized pep ulation in the world. Chili is paying for damages to European property during the recent revolution. "She can sure"ly pay withont- degradation for the wanton sacrifice of j American livesf Nothing is asked j from her that involves any real, humiliation; nothing except what is called for by herdutyas a nation • claiming to be civilized to a nation! that has always been friendly. It is for Chili to Kay, and to say speedily, whether there shall be war or peace.— Press. DR. BESSE'S LUNG BALSAM OUR " HOBBY " IS TO CURE OK Hi:FUNI> MONJiY.

In many districts the •work, if done at all, is done in the fall of the year and does not have time to settle and might just as well be left undone for all the good it does, for during the wet weather it beats up and makes a rough place that never will wear down smooth. Just what means to adopt it is not for us to say but something should be done by the government towards bringing about a radical change in roadmaking, and that right speedily. We clip the following from the Livingston Democrat: Although holiday trade in flowell was lively enough to suit almost everyone there is no doubt that with good roads trade would have been increased nearly one-third. What is true in Howell is true in every village ;n the state. We hope to see something done within 1he next year that will tend to make the approaches to our vilr 4ageg- a pi o a»u pe stead of a torture. How many good resolutions have been made already? Are they to be broken heedlessly, carelessly? It is said that many will turn over the new leaf only to blot its page the same as before. Let us try this coming year to cleanse our "ink fountain," brighten up our pen and write the page if possible free from all blot or stain, so that we may not be ashamed " of the record when it is unrolled in eternity. This is the time of year for families to unite and strengthen the bonds of friendship that are so dear on earth. Let no grievances come betweeu families, friends, or kindred, during the year upon which we are entering. Let the ties that bind hearts together draw tighter and tigher as the days speed by. We have reason to look for better things in the year that is now upon us t'-ian we enjojjed in the one that has just passed. True some good things came .to us in 1891 that no other year can bring; but still 1892 may be better on the whole* Let us make our good resolutions and stand by them manfully. No one but a coward will mock at one who is trying to do better. Did you make good resolutions tho beginning of 1891 and break them because some ridiculed you? The ones who ridiculed you for making good promises, laughed at your weakness when you gave up and broke those promises. Make your good reso- -lutionsj^ stick to them, and the world will honor you for it. If you are in want of C K You will find something ITE'W, 1TEAT, AT PADDACK'S The Leading Photographer, Howell.

As far &• it exists as a reality U is a change in the original human nHture, and all accomplishments. such a* the machinery of production and distribution through the use ol bteam and electricity, are only manifestations of this change. If vac" represents the original human nature, whether of a ' "fallen Adam'1 or a tailless apo, and "y" the change that has ta^en place in him, take "y" away and all civilization, all steam and* electric devices, all arts, all sciences, all humanities, disappear with it. For civilization ia something inside of men which manifests itself outwardly. WnrLB unfair or hostile criticism is to be deprecated it must not be forgotten that the author expressly invites public judgment and that he has no claim to favor except as he merits it He puts his wares on the market with the unspoken declaration that they are worth the price asked and the time necessary to read them; and anyone who finds them wo^th neither time nor money has express license to say sa Tho majority of authors understand this and accept criticism, even when hostile, with as good a grace as possible, well knowing that .if the criticism is deserved it is idle to resent It, and that if undeserved it will do neither author nor book any injury. There are Bomo, however, who resent any unfavorable criticism as an unjustifiable outrage, and insist that those who can-not speak well of their books Bhall hold their peace. DR.

Tho child can have n yreat deal of valuable information imparted to it without boing subjwtor] to tho drudgery of ordinary study. Thore is no ultimate escapo from hard work and lots of it in lho .-wquUition of knowledges. Tho path of intelligence is steep, narrow and long.

In this study tho nineteenth century has been pre-eminent; and from whatever standpoint tho subject has boon approached, the conclusion has been reached that there is u, purpose in civilization above the conscious purposes of any or all who have worked from century to century to bring it about Tho materialists among evolutionists, who deduce civ- j ihzation from brutes with tho highest ; possibilities of humanity in them, agree : in this with tho sternest theologians, who deduce it from "a fallen man" with tho lowest possibilities of brutality in him. f THEHK are other than purely political and economic issues which, in our day, challenge public attention and deserve thoughtful consideration.

Forty or more years ago bho wau a Piugun umluen known only in her tribe, and therefore nothing more than her good origin, her comeliness, and her consequent value ia horses. JShe met with outrageous for-i tune, but she turned it to t>uch good account that Bhe was Bpeedily ennobled. She was at home in a little cajmp on tho plains oiw day, and had %anderud away fivm the tente, when bho wad kidnapped. It was i i this wise. Other camps were scatr tvi-ed near there. On the night bo*. lore the day of her adventure a band of Crows stole a number of horses from the camp of tho Gn>9 Yentrea,' and very artfully trailod their plunder toward and close to the Pieman camp before they turiied and made their way to their own lodges. When tho Gros Vtlitres discovered their loss, and followed tho trail which seemed to lead to the Piegan carap, tlie girl and her father, an a.°;ed chief, were at a distance from their topees, unarmed und unsuspecting. Powti swooped tho Grots Vent res. They killed and scalped tho old man, and their chief swung th ; young girl upon his horse behind him, and binding her to him with thongs of buokskin, dashed off triumphantly to his own village. That has happened to many another Indian mauli'Ti, most of whom have behave •] us would a plaster ima^e, saving u l'uw days of weeping. Not such was Old Sun's wife. When she nnd~her captor were in Bight of the Gro-J Ventro village, she reached forward and stole tho chief's Bcalpincr knife out of its sheath at his sido. With it still wet with her father's blood, she cut- him in the back through to the heart Then she freed his body from hers, and tossed him from the horso'ri buck. Leaping to the ground beside bis body, sho not, only scalped him, but c.it off his right arm aiul picked up his gun, and rode 'madly back to her people, eluined tao.st of tho way, but, in-in^ing safely with her the three greatest trophies a warrior c:ui wrest from a vanquished enemy. Two of them would have distinguished any brave, but this muro Village maiden eamo with all threo. From that day who has boasted tbe right to wear threo eaglo feathers. Old Sun was a young man then, and when ho heard of this font ho came and hitched tho re [uisito number of horses to her mother's travois poU'ti besido her tents 1 do not recall how many steeds .she was valued at, but 1 have heard of very high-priced Indian girls who had nothing except their feminine (qualities to recommend them. In one case L knew that a young man. who bad been casting wha1. are called '•sheep's eyes" at a maiiieii, went one day and tied four hordes lo her father's tent. Then ho stood around and waited, but thoro was no sign from tho tent. Next day bo took four more, and so ho went on unfit ho had tied sixteen liort-es to She- — topea —At iko liiiist_ they were worth twenty dollars, perhaps thirty dollars apiece. At that tho maiden and her people came out, and received t':ie young man so graciously that ho knew that he was "tho young woman's choice," as wo say in civilized circles . sometimes under very similar circumstances. At all evonts. Old nun was rich and powerful, and easily got the savago heroine for his wife. She was admitted to tho Pilaekfoot council without protost, and has since proven that her valor was not sporadic, for sho has taken tbo war-path upon occasion, and other scalps have «oao to her credit. —Julian Kalph in Harper's Magazine.

Three or four of our courageous villagers at once seized the opportunity of extricating the poor colt from its cast condition, but unfortunately when the word was given "get up" all hands let loose and the colt got up, shook itself, and got a good start of the boys before they bethought themselves. It is needl6 «s to say that they had no colt when the owner appeared on the scene. •The Ann Arbor Courier closed its 30th volumn last week.

Very fortunately one was injured. The affair created consternation among the people living iu and employed about, the castle. All the dynamite outrages that have been perpetrated in London and other places in Great Britiah are called to mind, and a largo number of people have no other opinion than that tho "physical force" party have again put their policy of terrorism into effect.

Several months ago a military governor bad beeu seut to Santos to replace the former governor, The people regarded this a?i an act of tyranny and oppression, and when the military government appeared on Dec. 17 surrounded by troops the revolutionary feeling of the people broke looso and the storm was soon raging.

The troops charged upon and drove them from street to street, many of the citizens falling pierced by bayonets or bullets. A pitched battle took place on one of the plazas, the citizens fought stubbornly, but the trained soldiers were too much for them.

Presideut Harrison is understood to be averse to arbitration, but il is probable that if the proposition came from the Chilians he might yield rather than iusist upon warlike measures.

"1 offered him a thou - sand pounds , and he would not relont, " "Ther e is uo bribe an d no promise ; but he knows hw game is useless." And, when she would let herself be con - vinced, she begaji to cry; and I had to sit beside an d comfor t her for an hour . cnArTinvxx. ••••! — Lord -Marti n Pomero y cam e tlie next Th e whole house wan in excitement . lie was a ma n who \\m beginnin g to be talke d abou t In th e politica l world aswell as th e longabsent husban d of Gwendoline . She was nervou s an d agitated , an d talked to me restlessly of him . H e was so good and honor - able * r J steadfast:; an d he r piteou s eyes sought my face, asking me mor e plainl y . tha n words if I though t he could forgive her '• and love her. She gave order s to tbe maid io r her most becomin g dress, and jmt jewels which he ' had Riven her, and which she had no t worn i for A twelvemonth , oa hex white nec k an d I arms, an d looked at herself in th e glass, : wondering ; if she had iosj the beaut y which 1 won him , or if in the days of her rebellious - ness he had learne d to despise it. When he arrived; she did no t press forward to welcome him , but stood a Little back • from th e group in th e hall^ A -bright color flickering in her fair cheeks, htx large eyes sparklin g and flashing with a golden light, i her golden hair glowing beneat h th e gleam of a lamp , and in it one great crimso n flower of th e color of the rich velvet tha t trim - med her shimmerin g white dress. I saw tha t his portrai t had told" me no lies. Th e tall well-built ma n with th e decide d mout h and the keen eyes was a man to respect ; his voice was hones t and pleasan t to th e ear, th e c!a«p of his han d was firm, an d his tone s were kind and clear. H e greeted his sisters-in-la w with brotherl y friendli - ness, but his eyes sought his wife at once , And when he saw her, and saw too th e expression of her f;ice, ther e euin c a softness and a gladness into his own tha t mad e it . handsome . He strod e across th e hall to her, and took her in his arm s and kissed her. At dinne r dilbor t and Ulri c joined us. I scarcely know how it went off; but 1 knew tha t Gwendolin e was battlin g with happi - ness against w few remainin g tears. Th e presenc e of Lord Martin , almost a strange r to thre e of us, thre w a certai n reserve over our talk, and 1 was nervou s and beginnin g to rire-nd what miserabl e results might follow if Crawford Cavden should break his word nn d xeek to divide this newly-unite d husban d and wife. _1 could not help watch - ing the m ami wonderin g what would hap - pen ; would he forgive her folly? "You are very ciiiiet to-night, " Hild a sniU said to i)j.c "1 suppoM i it is be of your positio n as th e hostess, as lady pt th e Grange. " I^or d Marti n looked across th e table at m« as she spoke in a clear bell-like voice, with a little smile on her prou d lips. Hi s eyes were very searching , even in a cureor y glance, but the y were kind ; he might h a t * expecte d th e Grang e as his wife's fortune , but he showed nothin g but th e moat courte - ous consideratio n for me. I felt th e color rising in my face, th e hot - ter for th e laugh I attempte d In answer. 1 was surprised by Hilda' s remark , for it was no t often hho addresse d me, and never cou' d I remembe r tha t she had thu s openl y and smilingly alluded to Gilbert' s inherit - ance . I did not know thi s was but par t of a determine d scheme . When dinne r was over, th e gentleme n joined us directl y in th e drawing-room . Annls and Ulric , Lord Marti n and Gwendoline , Bat togethe r and laughed and talked , and Lor d Marti n told of his life ahroad . "Shall you be willing, Gwendoline, " he asked, "to go back with me an d share all the little deprivation s R life abroa d must have? The y shall be as few as it is possible to mak e them , and ther e are man y atonin g pleasures . I hop e you can mak e up your min d to it; " and he looked at her earnestly . She answered , in very low, tremblin g accents — "If you will have me. " Hild a was at th e piano , and she had summone d Gilber t to her side to tur n over th e pages of her music, an d was carryin g on a light conversatio n with him . He r pin k dress, with its full sleeves and square bodice and thic k white ruff, as in a pictur e by some old master , suited to perfectio n her fair face and pale yellow hair , dressed high and entwine d pearls. I looked at th e daint y Dresde n clock o a th e mantelpiece ; its hand s pointe d to five minute s to nine . N o on e seemed to be heed - ing me greatly, so I slipped out of th e brilliant room , with its picture s and chin a an d velvet seats, its flower-scente d music-iade n air. Out of door s th e nigh t was warm and still and fine. Ther e was no wind to chill me , and indee d I was in a fever-hea t as I atole throug h th e dark copse, hearin g the music grow fainte r and fainte r to my ears, an d castin g one look back at the light streamin g throug h tho windows upo n th e terrace-walk . I could still see its gleam tlireugh the tree s when I stood by the shrubber y wicket. Mr. Carde n was no t there , and , when presentl y he appeared , he was full of apologies, to which I paid no heed . The n he began asking a variety of \uestloii s coiiCTfuin g Lord Martin . "Mr. Carden, " I said, "the y will answer all these question s at th e Grange . You kno w what I have come for. Please do not detai n me longer tha n necessary. " "A thousan d pardons ! I will not keep you an unnecessar y moment, " he answered . I did not guess the delay was nece-ss&r y to him ; he was only waitin g for the curtain s to be'draw n across th e bright gleamin g window,. a preconcerte d signal. H e drew forth th e letter? . "You have been playing with edged tools, " he said. "You knew I loved you; you kne w you were leadin g me to suppose tha t I was not distastefu l to you " "Ho w dare you say so?'' I interrupte d passionately , "Do no t be angry with me now, " he said. "You have chose n otherwise , and I , of course , am boun d to accep t tha t decision . But you have treate d me very hardly ; can you "deny it? Was it fair and womanl y t o temp t me with such letter s as these? What if Gilber t Gascoign e hear d of your conduct , or Lor d Marti n of his wife's?" It seemed safer to keep silent tha n to tr y to answer his questions ; so I kept silent. "I soon, " he went on, "fathome d thelittl * plot, and to you, no t Gwendoline , I yielded —to you, not Gwendoline , I consente d to give th e letter s back. You say it was her thought , thi s plot to entra p me, to show you I could flirt with he r when she chose t o commenc e the flirtation ; and I can but accept a lady's word. But it is proof, Viola, tha t you did love me if you caused Gwendo - line to resort to such a subterfuge. I t was natura l she should vilify mo to save th e Grang e for her cousin against th e wish of Richar d Gascoigne , whose happies t conviction was tha t I, whom he pleased to call his faithfu l friend, had won you. I do no t wonder at Gwendolin e Pomeroy' s manoeuvres ; but you, whom 1 though t all tha t was tru e and sweet an d fair—I canno t understan d youl Viola!" TO BE CONTINUED. Flesh Food .

Hardly sooner than a hungry pathcr would try to still h i s hunger with a bagful of apples. T h e panther, in t h e child's place, would need but little encouragement to turn the lamb into mutton, and tho child would ask no better fun than a private interview with an apple-suck.

A WISE man gets happiness from what he is rather than from what he baa. What he is remains; what he has, who will insure thatP Plutarch says that Alexander caused to be painted on a table a sword within the compass of awheel, to show that what he had gotten by the eword wa* wheeled about by fata or fortune. Therefore with all your getting* get wisdom. Seek to be rather than tc have. Therein lies h^ppinesa KNOWLEDGE always has a ralue ol It* own but it may lie latent and un. developed like fuel that has nevei been ignited. It is the evolution ol power, the constant exercise of faculties at which we should aim. It i» the busy hands and busy brain, both working, not for themselves but foi results to the world, whioh are deserv. ingr of honor; and whatever oon. tributes to their ability is the mos: potent factor in all culture. We set this plainly in all occupations. Is IT not a faot that all the cures foi morbid worry, bilious irritability and wayward pettishneas are founded or the neglected lighter aa^ brighter eid« of life? it is only stupid bovine sullenness that can resist euauy smiles foi lonp. Well-regulated mirthfulness, dealt out as it la able to be borne, will find a way in Ua« to tb« heart p! any man unleis he is an unsouled lout. Once g«t the oross-grained disturber of the peace, crammed witb contrariness, to laugh, and his merriment will carry off the siflkiaesa o) his temper as a lightning-conductor empties a storm-cloud of its danger. MUCH cf the blame of broken conn dences rests upon the one who has givet them. He has been too anxious for eympatby or comfort or approval tc consider the possible cost to himselt or to the other. He feels that he ha« given a sacred trust when, in fact, h« Jjas required a great and perhaps impossible favor. He has no right t< demand so hard a task or to inflict io heavy a burden on hia friend much, lees to reproach him with disloyalty i! he faints under the weight. H« should at least make sure not only oi his kind intentions, but of his powei to do what he desires without undue strain. THERE is a certain indefinite percentage of cOvicts who wish to reform. Of thesV there is a much smallei percentage who can and do overcome all difficulties and reform with nc other help than that of their own experience of the suffering from persistence in evil course*, There are oth- #B, and these are perhaps the majority of all, who wish to reform and who will do if they are favored by circumstances. Finding circumstances against them, they fail. There is still another class, and by no moans a small one, in whom the wish to reform ia entertained, but is not persistent even under favorable circumstances. WHAT does persist in on© class o! convicts who wish to reform is the Belf-indulgence and lack of self-control that sent them to prison originally. They aro no worse, perhaps, on their release than many who will never HO violate the criminal code as to bo imprisoned, but their self-Indulgence will lead them to repeat their acts of lawlessness.

It is a time for review and for aatioipiitiun, A man must be a g-euivis ;U stupidity who dot's not think now. The old year died in giving birth to the new, as the lift* of Jane Seymour, the Knglish Qut't'u, departed when that of her son, Edward VI., dawned. The old year was u Queen. The new shall be a King. The grave of the one and the cradle of the other are side by side. Wo. can hardly guess what the child will be. It is only two days old, but I prophesy for it an eventful future. Year of mirth and madness' Vear of of pugeant anil coBtiagration! It will laugh; it will sing; it will groan; it will die. Is it not a time for earnest thought? The congratulations hare been given. The Christmas- trees havelx?en taken down, or havo well niph cast their fruit The frienda Vho came for the holidays aro gone in the raii-train. Wbile we are looking forward to another' twelve months of activities, the text breaks upon UH like a bursting ihuuderhead: "This year thou shtUt die!" The text will probably prove true of pome of us. The probability is augmented by the fact that all of us who are over thirty-live years of age have gone beyond the average of human life. The note is more than due. It is only by suflerence that it is not collected. "We arc like a debtor vho is taking the "three days' grace" of tho banks. Our race startcd__ with nino hundred years for a lifetime. VVe read of but oho ante-cTTIuvian youth whoso early death disappointed the hopes of his parents by his dying at 777 years of age. The world then may have been ahead of what it is now. for men had so long -A time in which to study, and invent, and plan. If an urtist or x-a philosopher ha* forty years for work, he nufctrs great achievements, but what must the artists and philosophers have done who had WO years befor« them? In tho nearly 12,000 yeara before the flood, considering the longevity of the inhabitants, there may have been nearly as many people iia there are now. The flood was not n freshet, thnt washed & few people off a plank, but a disaster that may have swept away a thousand million. If the Atlantic oeean. by n lurch of the earth to-nignt, should drown this hemisphere, and the Pacirtc ocean, by a sudden lurch of the earth, should drown the other hemisphere, leaving about aa many beings aw could be got in one or two ocean steamers, it wovjd give you an 1de» of wl>«t the ancient flood was. At that time. C.oil started the race with ft shorter allowance of life. The WO years were hewn down, until, in the time of Vespasian, a census was taken ai\d only 1-4 persona were found 100 years old, and three or four persons 140 years old. Now a man who has come to 100 years of age Is a curiosity, and we go miles to see him. The vast majority of the race pass off before twenty years. To every apple there are five blossoms that never get U> be apples. In the country church, the sexton rings the bell rapidly until almost through, and then tolls it. For a while the bell of our life rin^s right merrily: but with some of you the bell lut.s tK'gun to toil, and tlui adaptedness of the text to you is more and more prubable: "This year thou shalt die," The character of ovir occupations adds to the probability, TIU>M< who are in tr.e professions arc undergoing a sapping of the brain and nerve foundation^ 'Literary men in this country ate driven with whip und spur to their' topmost speed. Not niic brain worker out of a hundred ol serves any moderation. There is something so stimulating in our climate that, if John Brown, the essayist of Edinburgh, had lived here, ho would have broken down al 3f> instead of MS, nir.i Charles Dickens would have. dropped at forty. ThTi is something in all our occupations which predisposes to dlser.se. If we be stout, to disorders ranging from fevers to apoplexy. If wo be frail, to diseases ranging from consumption to paralysis. Printers rarely roach fifty years. "Watchmakers, In making tho time for others, thorten their own. Chemists breathe death in their labratories, and potters absorb paralysis. Painters fall under their own brush, Foundrymen take death in with their tilings. Shoemakers pound away their own lives on the last, Overdriven merchants treasure off their own lives with the yard-stick. Millers grind their own lives with ttio grist. Masons dig their graves with the trowel. And in all our oc cupatinns and professions there are the element* of peril. Rapid climatic chanpra threaten our lives. Ry reason of the violent fits of the th< rmometer, within .two days we live hnth in the arctic and the tropic. Tho warm south wind finds us with our furs on. The wintry blast cuts through our thin apparel. The hoof, tho wheel the llre-nrms, the assassin, wait their chance to put upon us their quietus. I announce it as an impossibility that three hundred and sixty-five days should pass and leave us all as vrc now are. In what direction to shoot thr arrow I know not, and so I shoot it at a venture: "This year thou shalt die. " In view of this. I ad vise that .VOH have your temporal matters adjusted, IK* not leave your worldly affairs sit the mercy of administrators Have your receipts properly pasted and your letters liled, and \ni;r books balanced. If you have "trust funoX" see thai they ;tro rightly deposited ;i!ul necnuntrd fur. Let no widow or orphan scratch on yoiir tuiabstune, "This tnan wronged mn of my inheritance." Many a tnan hus died, leaving a competency, whose j properly has, through hi.-; own carelessness, afterword been ili\ ideil between the adminis- Iratnrs. the surrogate, the Lowers, ami ihr Sheriffs. I charge ymi. hi'toiv many days have furie, as for as possible, have all your worldly ' tiuiiters nude straight, for "this year thou shail die," I ad\ )>e ;ilsr> that you be busy in Christian won;. How many SuhUitiis in the year:- Kifly- Iwo. If the text ho true of you. il does not say *t what time you may^g.0. unrt therefore it is t:n«ale tn count on all nf the llfty two Sundays As you are as lil.ejy to go in' ill- llrst half of the your as i n t h " lust half. I thir.k we Ir.id better i!l\ Lie ilie ti 11 \ -i\vn into halves, and ealand having helped none up to the same plaoe. It will be found that many a Sabbath-school toucher has taken into heaven her whole clu*s; that Dunlel Baker, the erangeliNt, took thousandu into heaven; that Doddrldge has t»U«n i t hundreds of thousands: that l'aul took ia u hundred million. How inuiiy will yen take int If you get into heaven, utid Und none there that you sent, and that there are none to come through your instrumentality, 1 beg of you u. crawl uutlur wimu KCU1. iu the back corner, aud never come out, lest the redeemed get their eyes on you, und some one cry out, "That is the niuu who never lifted hand or voice for the riHlt'inpiiuu of his fellowb! l^ook athini, all heaven!" Hotter be busy. Uetter put the plough in deep. Hotter say what you have to say quickly. Heller cry the alurrn. Better full on your knees. Hetter lay hold with both hands. What you now leave undone fur Christ will forever be- undone. "This year thou Bhatt die!" In view of the probabilities mentioned, I advise all the men and women, not roudy for eternity to get ready. If the text be true, you will hace no time to talk about non-essentials, asking why (.rod let siu come into the world; or whether the book of Jonah iu inspired; or who M-ek'hisedee was, or what about the eternal decrees, if you are as near eternity as some of you seem to be, there is no time for any tiling but the ijuestiou. ''What must 1 do to be saved!1'1 The drowning man, when u plank is thrown him stops not to ask what sawmill made it, or whether It is oak or cedar. who threw it. The moment it is thrown he clutches it. In this year you are tu die, there is uo timo for anything but iinine-diutely laying hold on Uod. It is high time to get out of your sins. You say, "1 have committed no great transgressions." Hut are you nut aware that your life has been sinful? The snow comes down ou the Alps, flake by Make, aud it is so light that you may hold it on the tip of your Biiger without feeling anv weight: but the Unices giither; they compact, until Bom« day a traveler"^ . foot starts the slide and it goes down In an avalanche, crn.sh ing .o death the villagers. So the sins of your. youth, and the sins of your manhood, and the sin» of your womanhood may have seemed only slight inaccuracies or trilling divergencies from the right -.so slight that they are hardly worth mentioning, but they have been piling up and filing up, packing together and packing togettw, until they inak'1 a mountain of sin. and one more step of your foot in the wrong direction may slide down upon you an avalanche of ruin and condemnation. Let me announce that Christ, the Lord, stands ready to save any niiin who wants to be saved. He waited for you all last year, and all the year before, und all your life. lie has waited for you with blood on hit; brow, and tears in his eye, and two outstretched, mangled hands of love. You come home some night and find the mark of muddy 'feet on'your front steps." You" hasten in. aiui tind an excited group around your child. He fell into a pond, ami had it not been for a brave lad. who plunged in and brought h|jm out, and carried him- home to be resuiCitattd, you would have been childless. YoHv fcelViiat you cannot do enough for the )—j-c*efier. 1 ou throw your arms around him. You offer him any compensation. You say to him. '•Anything that you want shall be yours. I will never cease tc be grateful," Hut my I^ord Jesus svt s your soul sinking, and attempts to bring it si shore, and you not only refuse him thanks, but stand on the beach and say. "Drop thnt *oul! Ifl«want it saved, I will save it myself." 1 wLsli you might know what u job Jesus undertook when he carried your ease to Calvary. They crowded him U> tho wall. They struck him. They spat on him, They kicked him, They cuffed him. They scoffed at him. They scourged him. They murdered him. Ulood! blood! As he sUmps (kiwn to lift you up, tho crimson drops upon you from his brow, from his side, from his hands. Do you not feel th« warm current on your face? Oh, for thee lh« hunger, the thirst, the thorn-sting, the nuffoea> tion, the darknens. the grotin, the sweat, the (struggle, the death I The sooner the last hour cones the better ii we are 111 ted for entrance in the celestial world. There is no clock in heaven, becau.'+e it is ar everlasting day: yet they keep an account ol the passing years, because they arc all the tjnx hearing from*our world, The ungelrt flying through heaven report how mtiny times tin j earth has turned on it-s asis, and in that wa\ the i'.n^cU can keen a diary; and they say it I* almost time now for father to come up, or foi mother to come up, Some duy they sec a cohort leaving hf^von, and they say, "Whithei bound?" and the answer is, "To bring up u soul from earth;" 'And the question is asked "What s< • v: 1 '•" And a family circle ii; heaven find that it is one of their own nnrn ber that i.s to be brought up, and thej come out to watch, as on the beach we now watch for* ship that is to bring our friends homo. After a while the cohort will heave lc Bifrht. flying nearer and nearer, until with n great clang rtic gaUs hoist, and with an em I brace, wild with the ecstacy of heaven, ok: friends meet ugain. Away with your stiff, formal heaven' I want none of it. Give me a place of inlinite and eternal sociality. My feel free from the clods of earth, I shall bound the hills with glQiinese, ami break forth in a laugh of triumph. Aha! aha! Wo weep now, but then we shall laugh. "Abraham's bosom," means thai heaven has open arms to take us in. Now we fold our arms over our heart, and tell the world to stand back, as though our bosom ws\s a two- \ b a r m l gate to keep the world out. Heaven stands not with folded arms, but -with heart open. It is ''Abraham's bosom." I see a mother and her child meeting at the foot of the throne after some years' absence.The child died twenty year- ago, but it is a child yet. I think thr little ones who die will remain children through all eternity. It would he no heaven without the little darlings, I do not want tho>e that ar.' in heaven to grow up. We HI ed their infant voices In the. great tone.

My In the church iuuludo u eurauy for fifteen, youra iu the Kivst end of London aud an incumbency for twenty-tivo years at a anmll church in the moat densely populated part of one of our largo townp. An you will readily suppose, ray forty years' services have not been without some atrauyo experioneo.s. I remember one morning at about 8 o'clock the clerk came to my lodf?in^a and informed mo that a oouplo wished co be married atoneo. "(Jan they not wait until the proper time?" I atkod. "They are most unreasonable. You aught not to have brought their message. You know we don't marry till 10:30,?' "Well, sir," urged the dork, "it was tho lady who aout mo. aud I thought it was a most important case.11 "Oh, 1 sow,11 said I. "Sho made it worth your while to come." "Yes, sir, and if its not being too bold I think she'll make it worth your'a to go." In no pleasant framo of mind I rose from my breakfast and accompanied the clerk. npr did I let illp the opportunity of lecturing him on the desirability of enforcing tho titne-honorod regulations of our church. When I had duly invested myself in my robes I entered tho communion- rail, and beheld, with no small surprise, a man in corduroy trousers and y, "duckn jacket, while by his side stood a well-dressed lady. I felt called upon to expostulate with the man for not being attired in a manner more becoming tho solemn occasion. He made no attempt to dofend himself except by saying he had not had timo to change. However, Ihe lady seemed satisliod, and as there was no valid objection—for they were prepared with a special license—I ! married them. After tho ceremony, the man signed his name with a cross, while the lady wrote a bold aristocratic hand. When leaving the church, I saw the lady bid her husband goodby and drive off in a carriage, while ho went in a different direction. "ap~ parontly to his work. The handsome fee with which the lady rewarded mo did not prevent my speculating, as I turned my steps homeward, of tho circumstances that led to this extraordinary union. Why should it lady only ~2i) years of age and with no small share of good looks link herself to an ignorant and uncultivated workman almost twice' h,or age? I have never found any satisfactory solution to tho problem, and. I hand it over to tho ingenuity of any novelist in want of .a plot. Part of my duty at that time consisted in receiving tho names of those who wished to hrnvo thoir banns called in church. One day an awkwardlooking man, with hair almost fiercely red, called on me and asked how much it would cost "to have his banns cviol." ••Two shillings," I replied. "All right," said ho, laying down tho money. "Your name?" 1 asked, getting out th'11 book. "John Dawkins." "Married before3" "No. sir.11 "What is the lady's namo?" I ropeatod. ••Well, I didn't think of that ho answered; "but lot's see there's Bossy and Sally and Widow Magee. See, sir. if you don't mind waiting, I'll go and ask one of them and come back in an hour?" Ho'went, but nevor returned.

The drift of population to the large cities of the country is a curious and instructive feature of our modern civilization. Great metropolitan centres have always been, not only the chief places of money-making on a vast scale, but also the hotbeds of misery and crime. As these centres ineresed' in size and importance, these elements are proportionally increased. The possibility of making comfortable living for the class who go thither to seek their fortunes, seems to be lessened, while at the same time, the capitalist tinds his own apportunities growing greater. The more capital he has, the surer his chance, with shrewd management, to multiply his wealth. Yet the average young man leaves his country home, where he might live honored and respected, to seek his advancement amid the excitement and whirl of vast communities in which he becomes, necessarily, of very little importance to any one but himself. It would seem of late years, as if a large proportion of mankind prefer to live from hand to mouth in cities, rather than work for an independent living in the country. Not so many years ago, there were very few cities in the united states containing a population of over one hundred thousand inhabitants. Now they may be counted by scores, while several have passed the million point. Even in regions considered purely agricultural, the majority of the pojvulation live in cities, as in Ohio, Illinois, or Missouri. The application of machinery to various ..kinds of farm work stimulates this drift of population cityward, through enabling one man now to do the work once done by several. This modern tendency raises grave problems forfuture political and social economists, especially in the line of local government and the distribution of labor. Problems of police regulation become more difficult, because the vast labyrinths of ..great cities possible the organization of various sects and societies, composed of desperate men, who having nothing to lose, desire to wage relentless war against the GREAT SLAUGHTER SALE! AT LOO-QOn taking an inventory Jan. 1st, we find that we have $5,0QO more in stock than we should have at this season ot the year. In order to reduce our stock quickly we will offer our entire stock of winter clothing, HATS, CAPS, AND FURNISHINGS, AT 14 off the regular price for the NEXT 30 DAYS. With the erreat increase of trade in our MERCHANT TAILORING- DEPARTMENT, we wish to reduce our stock of Readymade Clothing, consequently we will make the above sacrifice. This is a great opportunity to get goods cheap. Come early. First choice is always the best. aa KELLOGG & HORNUNG, HOWELL, MICH. The Boy Preacher Era.

Mrs. James Leach who has been very sick with la grippe is much better at this writing. We are sorry to learn that Mandie Allison is still on the sick list and but slowly recovering. Chester Horton was the recipient of an elegant new carriage last week a present from his father. V'' Perry Hines is doctoring a valuable Jersey cow for Geo. Wright that has inflammation of the lungs. Elmer Beach who is attending school at the Cleary business colexisting order of tilings. Take it altogether, this growing drift from the farm to the city does not seem to be encouraging. Isolated instances of instances of success do not disprove this opinion. Yet it will doubtless continue, at least until some counteiacting motivj shall rise into such sufficient • prominence as to gradually turn the current of public inclination into sorn.e other channel.

"Do you moan to use your opportunity?'' I asked, in a low voice, suppressing all feel-, ing and alarm as best 1 could. "No," he answered directly, "I do not. Take your letters. Some time, it may occur to you what was your treatment of an honorable man who loved you!" • lie hold out the packet of letters to rue, and, as 1 stretched out my hand to take them, ho suddenly imprisoned it in a close grasp, and drrw me near him and kissed me. "Howdare you in- 1 struggled to bis free. '"Let me go!" 1 cried, cult me?'' "It is the first and last. Forgive me, Viola. I havo forgiven much in you, and you have spoiled my life.'' 4'I will not forgive you!'' I gasped, standing back and holding the packet tightly, "You have given me these letters, and I open them hero before you to see that you are not deceiving me now. Why you have given me then! I do not know, unless it is that they are of no use to you.?' I did not know-how could I guess?—his bitter revenge. He had lied about me to Hilda Farguhar; but I never dreamed what had passed between them that morning. If I had been told, I should have said one woman could not be so cruel to another. I was thinking of Gwendoline, poor miserable Gwendoline 1 I hail always hated Crawford Garden; and I never thought what I might be doing for himself. And on the terrace-walk, from which my face was turned away, on that high walk overlooking shrubbery and lawn, Gilbert and Hilda were standing and watching us. She had brought him tUither to betray me. She had made a compact with Crawford Garden to take away from me what was dearer to me than life—Gilbert's love. Perhaps Carden thought he could then win the owner_of the Grange—at least he would be revenged ^ on me, whom lie duped while I dreamed 1 •was deceiving him. "One word before I go," I said. "It is better you should kuowtlmt I do not believe -what you have baicl. I do not believo you are nWed by a thought of honor, or ever did a*good deed except it suited your sellish ends!" I did not wait for his answer. I hastened back to the house and up to my room. I still had the same little room, and I went and stood in the recess by the diamond-latticed window, and unfastened the latch, and looked out at the dark fields, tho sombre trees, the faint light of the stars gleaming on the lake; and 1 thanked Heaven that Gwendoline was saved. presently I went down a?aln into the drawing-room—I dared not stay away longer— but my absence did not appear to have been specially noticed. No one questioned me, and I joined Annis ami Ulric, just glancing as 1 passed Gwendoline to tell her by one look that all was well. When the evening was over, she came into my room, and I gave her the letters. "Oh, Viola,'' she cried, with tpftrful shin- Ing eyes, "you have been my good angel! I was mad that night, crazy with fear, and you saved me. I have been a weak fool all my life. I had nearly lost—ah, what hud I n o t m a n y lost'.1'' "Vou will be happy now," I said quietly, "With my )iaiuj Sll j 1 ( . r a n t i looking into her ' face. "£ did not think I loved him so," she answorM—" I did not think he could love me. Am! I sNali be so glad to get away from all vthc memory of my folly, and' begin afresh, ovo^j though I leave you, dear little Viola. I long to be away." There was still In her heart a lingering terror of Garden—what he could do, what he might say; but I hoped that, when she mid JIartiM Pomeroy came to know each other better, she would learn to trust him and he her implicitly. Just now a suspicion, a word to Lord Martin, a question from him to her. might be as poison in a healin? wound; but when the wound was healed it would he powerless to harm. When I saw her with her husband on the morrow, I noticed how proudly he looked on her beautiful face, and did not wonder. The lovely Miss Farquhar rould never have been lovelier than Lady Maniu Pomeroy, now that the pride, the arrogant ungracious haughtiness beneath which she had veiled distrust and disquiet and a heavy heart, were gone; now that the struggle !>etween right and wron? had been fought out and the victory won.

"Then for Heaven's sake tell mo all!" "Icannot."-u Cannot!" Ills hands fell from me, and ho turned away with a groan. "Why have you been fooling mo like this? Why did you make me believe you loved me? Is there no truth in any woman?" "1 do love you. 1 have never loved any cue but you, Gilbert, and I never shall. Gilbert, can't you trust me?" "Trust!

"Gilbert, have pity ! 1 tell you, as truly as Heaven ia above us, that, it1 you knew, you,/ would not blame me for a moment!" "It'so, you would tell me. AY hat should keep you silent? Don't you understand what this i.s to me? I have loved you as tenderly and as passionately as ever man loved a woman. II' you had told me it was not you whom I saw last night, I should have believed you in spite of all that I have heard. Yes, I have been warned; but I lived and trusted on. But with your own lips you acknowledge that it was you—you and Ciuden. There can bo only one meaning to it." "What can 1 say? Gilbert, you are unjust , and cruel, ami yet I know, if you will not trust* you must condemn me. I was helpless last night; I cannot defend myself. I am helpless now. But I have done nothing wrong. 1 hate Crawford Garden! I have never had a thought disloyal to you." "Ideas of right and loyalty differ stranirely," he said, in a tone which stabbed me to the heart. "Did you not meet by appointment? Did he not give you a buudle of letters?" "Yes." "And those letters wore the letters that hnd passed between you?" "No, no!" "Then whose were they?" "I cannot tell you." '•Letters that had pas-ed between you," he repeated. "You. had persuaded, him to return them to you, seized at last with sfHiia I mi*.r!e Hn effort to s:nil<*, a ghastly tffori enough, I dare say. "He is going away," I said. "Ilff has been pressed to join boine friends who aru going to Egypt." I I could not tell the truth. I could not bear to think lie had really left inc. Hz must come back. "Oil, Viola!" criml AmiK "Gilbert -Gilbert --going away ! I wonder lie never told us 1 wonder if Ulric knows. Jiut, if ho goes, he will come buck U> bid you goodbye." "I I don't think so." "1 shouldn't like Ulric to go off in that way; but you kiinv men never like ;i fuss. Perhaps it's best, deal. He wanted to go, and he was afraid you would objei t, I expect.'' I did not answer. "But I <itii surprised. It seems so strange he should go suddenly and keep it quiet like this. Poor Viola! 1 don't wonder you felt rather queer; 1 know I should it Ulrie. went so far away ! But never mind; he will send you loads of letters, mid bring you back a heap of pretty things." Later in tiie day hheeross-examiufdUlric. "And do you know, dear," she told me, •'Gilbert had explained to Ulrie. 1 fancy it is a very nice opportunity, and lie had thought it Letter not, to let you know till the very last. And Ulric thinks," she added, lowering her voice a little--"Ulric thinks that it is perha]* rather a good thing. You see uncle's will being so queer put him in an awkward position. He has nothing to do here, and nu home; so Ulrie says he had better travel a bit until you can get married." "Does Ulric think that was his—Gilbert's —reason?" Annis nodded wisely. "And I expect Gilbert told Ulric everything, more than lie could very well explain to you, don't you see? And I said for my part," she remarked, with a very innocent laugh, "it will be a good thing, because you will find out if you really care for each other. Perhaps you will find somebody you like better; Miss Thome of the Grange will have plenty of chances." "Don't, Annis, please," I said huskily. "The (Jrange is Gilbert's, not mine. Ij will always be his, whatever I do." '""**•"" both of us with your dark . eyes and your soft voice. He must have known you were engaged to me, unless indeed he was the first you duped. I suppose the love of one man is not enough for a woman. Now you can have tho satisfaction of knowing that you have spoiled my life !" In misery and despair I wrung my hands. "Gilbert, you cannot think so of me!" I cried. But he never looked back nor heeded ; and I was left alone. I stood still, and stared at a great fern near me, and noticed how it was serrated and how it was gemmed with yellow spores. Sense and fesliug inusL have left me utterly. For a time that seemed hours I could not think, I could not move; and then a violent shudder seized me, and I .sank down on the littlo. iron chair and burst into a miserable wild flood of tears. There- was no ray of hope or help. The more I thought of it all, the more I recognised that nothing could help mo now. Kea-son and sense were all on Gilbert's side; there was only love to speak for me; How could I expect lie should trust mo after what he had MMMI? I had bvv.n betrayed, I had been slan lerecl, and I could do nothing to save mysolf. For (Iwendoltno's sake I oiiiril not report what I had (tone; 1 knew of no other way to help her. My life would have been a ehe.ap exchange for her happiness; bat this was worse to bear than death, For the rest of that day Gilbert stayed away from the Grange. When lie next came, I would, I told myself, plead with him till lie must believe; love must have power and would convince at last. ]f lie really cared for me, ho would not believe even his eyes before my word; ami, if ho did not believo mo, I would go away and hide myseU for ever, so that he should have tho Grange. But he did not come. Tho next day a note in his writing was brought to me from the lodge. "Gilbert has cono up to London, Ulric says," Annis told me as I took the letter— **I suppose only for a day or so on business —and he has written to tell you about it. Living next door, we don't get many loveletters, do we, Viola? So it is as well for him to seize any opportunity." 1 drew away from her into the deep window- recess, and with trembling funre-rs broke the seal—the Gaseoignc M\II. a mailed arm; but no mailed arm could have struck me a heavier biow than tho words on the paper within.

I sent Gilbert a letter to tell him so. It is a hard task for a girl to write to the lover who has misunderstood her and renounced his engagement. I could not clear myself; I could give no fresh explanation' of my conduct. I could only reaffirm what I had imiecemng-- toid hliriTand I loved him"l;oo -well to refrain from telling him so now that he doubted i t He did not believe me—tho scene by the shrubbery gate must have risen up before him to contradict my protestations—and ho wrote me only a few line*, which he sent on the eve of his hurried embarkation. "Did you not understand from my letter, .Viola, that I am trying to forgive you everything? I have rooted out all those hard thoughts that would come at first; and I quite believe that the Grange was Intended for you, not me. I am glad It Is so; It leavep you free to do as you please with your life. I could never have lived in it; ifea old gray •walls have held nothing but disappointment and trouble for me. 1 hope never iu my life to see it a^ain, never to see the dark lake by the reeds and the bushes, or to stand by the low wall and the wicket-jrate. But I d« not wish these things to haunt you as they haunt me. Perhaps you thought once tt^t you loved me; and I believe that, to give me my uncle's house," you would have kept your promise and imagined you could do your duty as my wife. The Grange could belittle compensation for such a wife as that. Do not accuse yourself in .any way, for I am triad 1 hoard the truth, and have this chnnce to <;et away unremarked." Alter 1 trot this letter and knew that Gilbert hail gone. 1 sank into a torpor of misery.

But the Grange would haunt me luore than wiy scene outside its walls could haunt him; memories lurked in every cormT, whispers echoed in every room, and were murmured by the rustling pino-treos without; and the hnteful.i$wrehment which left the legacy to mo seemed to hang round my neck like the dead albatross around the Ancient Mariner's. I did not want the place; I wi>hed with all my heart Hilda and her lawyers would rid me of it. It was Gilbert's; but I could do nothing to place it in his posse-s I, nothing but die; and I almost hoped I might die. TO HK CoNTINtT.l>.

Kverybcxly is talking about ;i Hiuklen attack of illness that Mr. Ulaine \ud tliis week. Tim attack WHS iiiMiyniiicant of itself, bein^r only a little nausea which passed off in an hour, but the fact is pointed out by those who insist upon believing Mr. Jihtinc's health precarious that he was taken in precisely the same way last summer. Those republicans who do not wish Mr. Maine, to be the nominee of his party are doing all they can to exaggerate the matter, presumably in the hope of al ming ;1. Maine about the , of HEART DISEASE. his health to such an extent that he will decline to be a candidate. .Everything seems to be considered fair in politics. It is now well nigh certain that we shall have no war with Chili, and it is believed, although no announcement has been formally mad*1 that Mr. Maine and tt^nor Montt, the Chilian minister, have readied a satisfactory settlement. It is probable that the correspondence will be withheld from Congress until the whole mutter is ol'- h'cinlly settled. Senator McMillin, [who was elected Speaker pro tempore, to act during the illness of Speaker Crisp, makes a very satisfactory presiding officer. Senator MorriTPthis week^ made a speech in reply to Senator Stewart's recent speech in favor of the free coinage of silver. His arguments, were well made, but they c ntained nothing new on the subestablish a'department, of finance and commerce; by Ker:i. ol' Xeb., to carry into ' effect the Alliance sub-treasury system; by lioatner, of L;i., proposing a constitutional amendment prohibiting lotteries; by Chipman, of Mich., to prevent aliens from competing with citizens of the United States upon work done in this country, by O'- Neill, of Mo., to reduce letter postage to one cent; by Greenleaf, of N. Y., for women suHVage, and several for the election of Senators by the'people. Senator l'effer lias introduced bills for the establishment of a bureau of irrigation, and for the increase ofthe circulatingmedium. by the issue of Treasury notes based on gold and silver coin and bullion; also to amend the interstate' commerce act, and to prohibit options, trusts and combinations. Senator Stewart has set the anti-silver people by the ears by the introduction of a resolution instructing the judiciary committee to inquire and report if any further legislation is necessary to make it the duty of the proper officers of the mint to receive and coin silver bullion for the benefit of depositors. Senator Stewart has found an old. law passed in LS.')7. which provides that "gold and silver bullion brought to the mint for coinage shall be received and coined by the proper officers for the benelit of the depositor." As the Senator has been nimble to find any record of th-1 repeal of this law he is of the opinion that it still holds good, and he desires the opinion of the eminent lawyers who compose the judiciary committee; before his resolution.

Then take tho boxej to ' a tinshop and have two small holes cut opposite in each near tho top, so that the bo:,es may bo hung by ribbons or cords, Lastly give each receiver two coats of enamel pain*; tho delicate tints and ivory white being the most satisfactory in coloring and making it possible to match tho prevailing shade in'draperies aud toilet adornments for each room. Similar boxes or baskets should be hung under each wall match SJI'O and placed beside the mutch bjxon mantel or shelf. When lamps aro used instead of gas. tiny Japanese china bowls or papier macho trays are suitable for such a/use and can bo bought in an'y^tKituMi store or shop dealing in china and glass. The main idea in solecting the receivers for shelves and mantels is to havo their shapes entirely different from tho companion match boxes, so that no one may mistake, when feeling his way iu tho dark, burned matches for those that have not been lighted.

With It the ( nnaulldntod California and Virjfiulit >I1HH» Were L,uuttted. A rocunt i$sue of your papui* contained un unsigned lottur from Salem, a d dross oil to Van H. l)u Luahmutt, in which tho writer utu'.ea that bo is possessstrd of a sucrot by which he is enabled to locate deposits of precious Jiiinentl.s without l l a r o r - di/'ury course of prospecting for them, writes u correspondent of the Porlluud Oregon inn. Mr. IJe Lushmutt's humorous reply indicates that he considers his correspondent to bo either a crank or a knave. This may bo natural b i t I differ with him. Some years apro mi Illinois man, saddled with the very uncommon name of AL l'eck, came to Virginia City, Rev., professing- to have a "divining1 rod," the naturo of which I do not remember. However, he alleged that it could accomplish what the Salem man claims for his secret. peck's representations were so plausible that he succeeded in ingratiating THE BEST fOft £YHY fURPOSE. into tho confidence of Die most prominent men engaged in minin that famous carap. Amonj* i wore such people as United Senator John IJ. Jones, James ('. Fair, John W. Mackay. Frank Osbiston and Ewan. Williams. Tho Illinois man WHS engaged to work his '•rod" ii'oin tho north end to tho southern extremity of the Conistoelc lode. He remained in and about Virginia City some months, but at length his patrons lost confidence in him and his "rod," and packing nis gripsack, tho '•diviner''1 returned to his home. Since then nothing has been heard of or from 1'eck. Subsequent events, though, proved that Teck was no charlatan, for his rod located the tuany millions of gold and silver taken out ol the California and Consolidated Virginia mines, which have given Mrs. John W. Mackay the opportunity to p\i\y tho role of a female Monto Cristo in Europe. And his rod also located several other mines which iu tho past ten years have made plutocrats of tbo developers, _ EARTHQUAKES IN JAPAN. Th»y Occur With Great I<'reqii©nc7-.A« .Many »* On? a Week. During' the nine years and six months preceding December, 1884. there had occurred in Japan, according to the official statement published by the government, bo'6 earthquakes, averaging one earthquake for every six days and six hours. Professor Milno was ablo to make tho average even greater than this, according to a writer in the illustrated American, lie could trace an average of an eiirthquako per day in Nagasaki, in tho extreme smith of tho Japanese- Archipolngo. 1'robably tho oflieial statistics were compiled from the returns of officials from all over tho country, in which case only those shocks which, canned lo.'S of life or damage to property would be included, if this hypothesis bo correct, wo should have an average of more than one earthquake* per 'vcek, which was so violent that it caused injuries to life or property sufficiently serious to attract the attention of the local authorities, and, in their judgment, to require a report to the central government Earthquakes being so common people scarcely notice them unless they bo extraordinarily severe ones, l-'or instance, Miss liird in her "I'nbeatcn Tracks" thus summarily dismisses two: "Whilo wo were crossing tho court there were two shocks of earthquake; all tiie golden wind bells which fringe the roofs ra.ng softly, and a number of priests ran into the temple, and boat various kinds of drums for the space of h.alf an hour." AH every one knows, Japan is tho very hearth of ..earthquakes. In 1S64 more than sixty-thousand people lost their livei in consequence of one of these great terrestrial eatnstrophies, and it has been calculated that from ten to twelve earthquakes, each lasting several seconds, occur every year, besides numerous others of too light a nature to be worthy of remark.

Thomas Hirkett had flu1 misfortune to loose a valuable cow last week. The death of Pat. Sullivan of this place was announced last Thursday morning he being very old "was undoubtedlv th • cause of his death. Win. C'obb was called to Jackson last Saturday to attend the funeral of his father which occured at that place Sunday. Mr. ('ol)b Si1, was eighty-six years old and was perfectly well until two weeks ago when he was stricken with liver trouble but lingered along until Friday last when death relieved him of his sufferings. He leaves four sons and four daughters. He was an old pioneer of Jackson county and was much respected by all who knew him. EAST PUTNAM. Emimi Hicks visited friends at Chilson Saturday and Sunday. James Sage, of Ann Arbor, called on friends here one' daVlast week. Mrs. R. AV. Lake and daughters spent Saturday at Chubb's Corners. Mrs. YV. H. Placeway spent a few days last week with Howell friends. Mrs. James Fitch who has been seriously ill for the past week, is improving.

A party of t vvelve young people from Hosvell VIM ted this place on Monday evening lust enjoying a sleigh ride and ovster supper at the Pinckney house. A number of our youny people were invited to participate in the supper. A four horse team brought them over; and of course tUev had a good time, | Evidently the young people do not intend to let the sleighiug Lr0 to waste. Youn^ man, there is one tiling you cannot do. You can't make a success in life-unless you work. Jietter men than vou have tried it and failed. You can't loat aiound street corners and saloons, smoke cigars, tell foul stories, drink whiskey, and sponge on .some one else, without making a failure in life. You must learn a trade or get into some honest business. If you don't vou will be a chronic loafer, despised bv nil, producing nothing-— simply making yourself a burden on your parents or on the state. Ex. Kiscmnuu -Ornijhty. No contemplated wedding in a lon;4 time has evoked quite so much interest as the one solemnized last Tuesday morning. Jan. 12, 189:2, in St. Mary's chun-h. This was owing to the amiable qualities and genera! esteem in which the happy couple are held. The principles in the impressive and beautiful ceremony were, Mr. Louis Eisenman. a successful business man oi'Chelsea, andMiss Katharine Cleraghty, an estimable young lady, also of CheVea. Mr. and Mrs. EUenman took ^,n early train to spend the honeymoon with relatives alTd'Triends. "at Cleveland, Ohio, and other eastern cities. They expect to be absent two ov three weeks, and, on their return, will go to housekeeping in thi;j village.--Chelsea Herald.

The st'iry liud gono abroad tb * Gilbert was but. takiyij a tour lu the Eitst until the I time was tar enough distant from his nti- ' clu's tleatli to allow of our marriage. I did not contradict it. I suld uo word tluit I could help to any one, and most of all 1 slrutftfled to keep tho knowledtf** of the truth from Gwendoline. Her happiness \v;is the ono bright spot in tin? darkness, and In her newborn hopes and ea^er gratitude she never siispfu'tcd might was wroii^. "If the world were only just, you should be ".lie happiest woman in it, Viola," she said OIK* d a y ; "and I hu|>ti for once thy world will be just." The h a z i e s t ! 1 thought In my youthful selfishness. X, was tho most miserable. "I shall think ot you so often," she went on, "and seiid wishes and hopes across the » w a to you. jfnu are the oiu' beinsf on earth \ >vho knows how near the edge, of tho precipice i was. 1 hardly dare think of that time, how wicked and utterly without hope i was; and it was you who rescued me." They were in haste to return to India, and we were all busy with preparations lor their journey. 1 we'/t with 1,'lric down to {Southampton to see them off, and, as the vessel I set sail, Gwendoline stood on the, deck, a graceful slender gray ligure, with one flash of crimson in her hat, waving h r handkerchief to me. And 1 took away tho memory of her beautiful face with its shining hazel eyes and gleaming golden hair, and of the pride and pleasure in the look her husband turned on her, to cheer my life fur the long perplexed days to come. * * * * * * Hilda wont back to IKT uncle and aunt in London, her diamond engagement-ring on her linger and the jirospeet of. a, countessship before her. I made an effort tn part in peace. I did not know it was she who had marred my life; but she knew too that, except in having separated Gilbert and me, her schemes were unavailing. "Can we not part friends, Hilda?"' I asked on the morning of her departure. I longed to have no enemies among Gilbert's relatives, and 1 had done nothing to injure Hilda. Why should she still be so unkind1.' "1 do not see," she answered calmly, "why we should make any pretence because we are going to part. You have played your cards well, ami have sjreeeded in befooling a larger number of'people than you, I should think, could have expected. I am not ono of the number." ' I uttered no further word, and, when the carriage came to the porch, she got in and drove, away, without one look back at tho beautiful homo she was leaving. But Annis, who was going with her, clung to me and cried, and said it would break her heart to leave me; and why could she not bemarrled from the Grange? And then she smiled and laughed, and declared how delightful it would be when she could come and see me and. I pay visits to tier, and we should always be near each other. I watched the carriage drive down the broad gravel way, Annis looking from the •window until she could see me no longer. I tracked it along the road till it rounded tho lake and became only a dark spot in the distance, and I could hear the wheels no more. Then, with arising, choking sob, 1 turned away into the great dark hall, with its armor and antlers and beautiful groined roof, and the dreary empty house. All were gone—Gilbert, Gwendoline, Annis—and I was alone. So short a time ago that everything appeared like a dream I had come, a 6ituple companion to the old master of this plorious Grange; now I was its owner. Then I was full of hope, life seemed all in future ; now I was full of despair, life seemed all in the past. •1 went to my desk and got out pen ami paper to write one last word to Gilbert. .

She had begged hard that I would stay, and let her remain with me; and perhaps she thought me unkind to refuse. "It is quite natural you should want to go home—I know it is," she said. "But if I could only have stayed with you. Viola!" 1 had no heart to tell herthat Gilbert nnd I were parted for ever; I knew how amazed and indignant she would be, what questions <he would pour upon me, with what loving sympathy ^ e would surround me, and I could not b " r it. Every one would learn se*in enough. I suppose the servants must have thought my manner a little strange—possibly they talked among themselves; but I did not notice them, and indeed to me they maintained always the same quiet respectful demeanor. So I gave my simple orders, and packed my small wardrobe, and wandered all day through the big desolate rooms, gazing at the azure and or of the Gascoigno arms in the lozen^e-paned, deep-sunk windows, pacing the long oak-panelled corridors, walking up and down tii? long apartments, with their tapestries and furniture and rich colors, where the CJaseoigne's ancestors looked down reproachfully and contemptuously at the sinali dark creature who had no right or place among them. I had strayed once more into Mr. Gascoigne's room, and was standing beside the little chess-table- and the large leather armchair, when the servant sought me out, and said that Mr. Garden wished to speak with me. "I will n t see him,'' I answered quickly. 'Tell him 1 annot." Tho maid went away; but in a few minutes she returned with a slip of folded paper, on which was written— "L"t me srn you, T ben for fWo minutr*. It 1B the lant timr. I have •our thinir Important to »ay. l)o nof rcfiif-e for your own rnke." A moment morel hesitated whether I - would see th© man who had ruined my happiness. Did he know thnt ho had done so? Did lio guess the true meaning of Gilbert's hasty journey'.' L was only a girl; a;wl a girl ia so easily deceived by » wan who wofesses to luve her. 1 <;;,! not believe in my heart that Crawford CarVieu had auy true "love for me. I dislikediiim more than ever. Was not his conduct with regard t<" *"wendoline enough to blacken him in any woman's eyes'.' 1-1 Lit still 1 knew it had" been pursued no farther than the verj,e of folly. No eredit to him ! No, I d.il not credit his p r o t e c t i o n s ; I knew he h.-ullied. And yet those protestations remained in my memory, and 1 thought, if he had one spark of honor, would lie not let Gilbvri know 1 was innocents Gilbert might believe, him, though lie had not believed me. He couid hardly refuse to believe, assurances from Mr. Garden's own lips. So 1 went down-stairs into tin: drawingroom to see Crawford Cardrn. JIii crossed the room to l.u-et me, smiling under his bki^k miio-.tuetie and a Ihsh of ti'tmnph in his eyes. "This is U'ml of rvou," he said.

I came to tell you for your own sake; you had better know now than later, and, sooner or later, you must face, the fact. I was Gilbert Ga-eoigne's partner; 1 told him frankly I thought Mr. Gascoignc might favor you in his will, though naturally I did not guess the extent. He courted you to ingratiate himself, met you secretly while he knew I, with his uncle's sanction, wa«? trying to win you for my wife. No doubt you suppose my reasons were, no better than his. Wait a bit. Mr. Gaseuigne dies;you are his heiress." "And lie knew that Gilbert would therefore be his heir." "Mr. Gaseoinie saw farther than most people, lie knew human nature, and he loved to net in enigmas to bring about the ends he foresaw. Gilbert lias arted his part wisely; but a doubt arises. Hilda Farquhar started it—I don't deny that -but she cmninunicated it to her cousin. I was consulted. I gave it as my opinion, as a lawyer, that the will might not stand le.iral examination; but-at the same time I refused to have anything to do with such despicable business. He will easily lind a solicitor, the will will be disputed in court, all your relations with old Mr. Gai-eoigne and Ins nephews and nieces will be drai:ged,J).'foiv the court, and you can imagine whieh "iside the world will • take." v He looked at me, but 1 wt-.uld not meet the look. I kivw I w.is white, and my limbs were shak-ng: but 1 wuu'd hear him out before I littered a vwu\!, thmiurh I was longing to break into a >iur;n <>t indkantioii.

Mr. G:\scoigne? 1 do not want to speak of .the power that is in my hands, because I love you and want to help and defend yon. Will you not try to love me, Viola, and be my wife?"' He came nearer. I stepped buck from him, and answered steadily, calming myself With one great effort— - "I do not know, Mr. Ciirden, how much of what you say is true. It may be all as you tell me, or it may not. But I would never marry you, because I know, you to be cruel nnd dishonorable; because I-have neither love nor respect for you 1"' "Take care!" he said between his teeth. The eager homage and, the ingratiating tone weiv forgotten. He had expertcd to make1 some impressioiron me, ami he suddenly found iie had nude none. The smile, j still remaining, had become savage, the eyes threatening. j "I do not believe." I wont on, "that you love me, because I know you better perhaps than you think; but I do believe that" you \ are willing'to marry me for the *>ake of"^t- G;ibriel's Grange.'' "You will soon see your .mistake. The Grange will be wrested from you."1 "It is of no use lighting me. I have no fear of law or loss. I have already resigned all right-to Mr. Gascoigne's property, and to-day I leave the house." ' , "You cannot mean that!" he cried sharp- : iy. "V;ola, it would be folly nnd madness! i Cancel the absurdity at once! Only give me the right to conduct your ease. ar.d. with my knowledge and my skill, you may be heedless of scandal. I can a;-.Mire- success to you." "You forget." I said, "that my loss was to prove your disinterestedness. I do not want siuvess. I give all u^*of my own free will and choice without believing any of tho words you have uttered to eaiunmute Mr. Giltert Gaseoigne." "You think he will come back to you. He wll! never do that." "I refuse to enter into my m.-vos. You have hud your answer, Mr. Canton; you are simply insulting now. I must ask you to leave me." And I rang the bell for tiie servant. "You rue insolent and mad!" he* said, in hissing passionate tones, unable to restrain his anger. "You have iln*. urtrd me at every lain, Lu; )ou will have little r a u s r U r exloses his Tim t i , n l u \ heir Ml'.a'ion. I can play to your lead, a n d I will!"' " S h o w this g e n t l e m a n to the door,'" I siwd ; Htid then, (imt: mure alone, 1 paced u\> a n d d o w n t h e room, t h i n k i n g how lie had spoilt jny life, a n d t h a t he could du nothing mureto d a r k e n it.

The snow was on the ground, although it was March, and the wind was cold and piercing; but there was one gleain of sunlight on the lake as .suddenly I saw it through the pine-trees: and I held my breath with a gasp, and a great sob rose up in my throat.

Ann Arbor has been having a coal The Monk's hill, south of the village, was kept warm on Saturday last by the merry coasters, Thirty or forty were there all day long and report the coasting tine. Why is it that a statement from a grocer, dry goods dealer, or merchant of any kind is received as a matter of fact, while a statement-from the printer is always termed "a dun?" We thank the many friends- of the DISPATCH who have responded so liberally in straightening up our books. There are only a few more now from whom we should like to hear. The regular annual meeting of' tho Livingston county Sunday school convention will be held at FoAvlerviHe, Tuesday and Wednesday, February 16 and 17. A fine prpgram is promised. Owen Kellogg, of the firm ot Kellogg it Hornung, merchant tailors, of Ho well, was in town on Saturday last. We think by the rush he had that he must think that their (adv' in the DISPATCH must pay. Miss.Kntie Markey of this city, went last Saturday to St. Mary's Academy at Monroe, Mich., where she will attend for a term of one year.

Galloway, who for six years has had charge of the poor farm of this county, resigned a coupie of weeks ago his resignation to take effect April 1st. While in charge of the farm Mr. Galloway has performed his work in a very creditable manner and the commissioners are sorrv to have him resign. A. T. Gardner, of Chicago, was ia town on Monday doing a little advertising for the H. E. Bucklen Co. He distributed somewhere nearoOO sample bottles of the new discoverv and 300 boxes of pills. This (inns 'adv' appears \y_eekly_in the DISPATCH. It evidently pays to adirertise or these big firms would'not keep at it. During the past month we have found but few people but who thought: that the editor ought to have the pay t h e w e e k .

M r . for for a year as any other onally one who uld fee! hurt and perhaps stop his paper, but we honor such a one more than the one who pays no attention to the statement and never intends to pay. The latest money dodge is slaved in Michigan.

A very sensational tragedy has been enacted ut Memphis, Teun., Miss Alice Mitchell deliberately murdering another girl, Miss Freda Ward, with a razor, on the street. Miss Ward, who ia thedaughter of a wealthy planter of Gold Dust, Ark., was wulking up from the levee wltn a coinpaniou, when Miss Mitchell, who was sitting in her carriage with another girl, suddenly jumped out and ran toward Miss Ward. Catching her by the neck, Miss Mitchell slashed her across the throat with a razor. The jugular was severed and Miss Ward sank down, bat hod iu her own blood. Miss Ward was taken to a hospital, hut died before anything could be done for her. Tbe only reason that can be given for the murder is that the two girls, who had been warm friends, exchanging visits with each other frequently, bad quarreled. Miss Ward refused to speak to Miss Mitchell, and had even made some uncomplimentary remarks about the latter. This appears to Lave maddened Miss Mitchell, and she resolved on the terrible revenge.

HJ»TB Been Insulted and and Ifteparatlon n a i l be Giren Without Further Delay. T h e After speaking of that portion of his annual message bearing on the Chilian matter, President Harrison refers to the course of Minister Egan in bis official duties, and upholds his every act. The attack on the sailors uf tbe Baltimore was because of the animosity toward the uniform they wore rather tban any individual action; even the abstract of the conclusions of the fiscal general of Chili does not make the mutter iu a different light. As to the legal phase of the Baltimore trouble the president says, I am clearly of the opinion that where such sailors or officers are assaulted by a resident populace animated by hostility to tbe government whose uniform these sailors wear, and io resentment of acts done by the government, not by them, their nation must take notice of tbe same as one involving the infraction of its rights and dignity, not in a secondary way, as where a citizen is injured and presents his claim through his own government, but in a primary way, precisely us if its ministers or consul or tha flag itself hud been the object of the- sauie character of assault. The officers und sailors of the Baltimore were iu the harbor of Valparaiso under the orders of their government, not by their own choice. They were upon tho shore by the implied invitation of the government of Chili and with the approval of the commanding officers; and it does not distinguish their case from that of a consul that his stay is moro permanent or that he holds the express invitation of the local government to justify his longer residence. Then follows a resume of the incidents of the attuck with occasional reference to the testimony of the sa.lors. The president clearly shows that the attack was premeditated and was known ut le_ast to a pqrtion_ of the police. The charge that our sailor* provolred the assault by drunken rowdyism will not hold. Tho attempt to evade the mutter by the assertion that the origin of the assault could not be discovered is insufficient. No amount of evasion or subterfuge is able to cloud our clear vision of this brutal work, it should be noticed in this connection thut the American sailors arrested, utter an examination, were, during fou>* days following the arrest, every one discharged, no charge of auy broach of tne peace or other criminal conduct having been sustained against a siuglo one of then). The animosity of tho Chilians in general towards North Americans was repeatedly illustrated. 'I he sailors would hurl derisive und abusive epithets at tho American sailor on every possible occasion. Tho evidence of our suiloi1* clearly shows that the attack wus expected by tbe Chilian peoplo, that throats hud been made aguinst our uu'n, und that in one case somewhat curly in tho afternoon tho keeper of one houso into which some of our men had gone closed his establishment in anticipation of un nttack, which ho advised them would bo made upon them us darkness cumo on. Several of our men sought security from tho mob by such complete or partial changes in their di^ess as would conceal tho X.i'ct, of their being .seamen of tho Bultiuiorr", und found it then> possible to walk the streets without molestation. These incidents conclusively establish that tho attack was upon the uniform -the nationality, and not upon the men. •'The testimony of Ca'pt. Jenkius of the American merchant ahipiCeweenaw which hud prone to Valpurai90 for repairs, and who was a witness to sotno port of tho assault upon tbo crew ofi the Baltitnoro, is strongly corroborative of the testimony of our own sailors, when he says he saw Chilean sentries drive back a seaman, seeking shelter, upon a mob tbat was pursuing him. Tho officers], and men of Capt. Jenkins' ship furnibhi tbe most conclusive testimony as to Ifre' indignities which were practiced to wood Araericuns in Valparaiso. When American sailors, even of merchant ships, can onil-y secure their safety by denying their a&Ciouality it must be time to readjust our relations with a government that permits sa«h demonstrations." Then follows a to<»ehing recital of the cruel treatment received by the injured sailors at the hantis of the police. After summarizing the correspondence up to a certain point tho president speaks of the attempts to settle the affaii. The communications from, the Chilian government have not even the form of regret. Had an apology been promptly made the entire affair could havo been settled satisfactorily and with all dignity and honor to both countries. In view of tho fact that the government of Chili was provisional tho delays in rualdug a report cf the findings of tho courts were overlooked. On January 21st the president forwarded to Chili tho conclusions of our government and at tho same time referred to the offensive aotn of Mr. Matta, tho Chilian minister of foreign affairs, and informed that government that unless the ivote was at once withdrawn, diplomatic relations woAild bo severed. The request for the recall of Mr. Kgan could nnt be grunted. In giving his conclusions the president pives it as his opinion that tho demands made of Chili should be enforced, that our tiu$j and the right to wear our color* without being subject to Insult, brutality and death must bo upheld. We do not want ether than friendly relations. It must, however, be understood that this government, while exorcising the utmost forbearance toward weaker powers, will extend its stroll,:,' uml adequate protection to. its citiiens, to its omcers and. to its humblest sailor, when made tho victims of wantonness and cruelty in resentment, not of their personal misconduct, but nf tho -GAU'-lali of J-heir govern ment.

A DANGEROUS PLOT, CHAPTJCB XXXIL "Perhapa you u t » »tr»jQfer In these part*," he said. "Yon'i our Gran*©—SquUe's bouse* It's empty now, burins the serrants. Old Squire he died, aad there's all kind of ttories, whispers like, coin* about Some say be left It to a young lady as was there, and w u to have been, married to his nephew, and then jilted him; some that they are going to be married after a bit, and there's nothing to talk about at all. I am new to Marlands myself. I used to live atBrattou, ten miles away. You know BrattonV" "No." "Don't you now? That's queer! Well, tuch is what some folks say. There's others, again, will tell you Mr, Gascoigne—that's Squire—left his money to Mr. Gilbert—that's his nephew—on condition he did not marry this young lady. Any way, none knows the rights of it; but Mr. Gilbert's away, Rnd the young lady left the Grange, looking, the women say, as if her heart would break. It's a pity they don't make up theii minds for one at any rate to live there. It's a nice place—first-class land some of itl" Ha looked with a certain pride at the looming pile of gray stone, the broken skyline of tower and gables, and the windows sparkling through the haze in the sunbeams thaj fitone on them; and I gazed at it with. throbbing, aching heart, drinking rn all it* beauty—my fair palace, my joy and my sorrew— mine, though I should not »et foot in it again—mine, though I stole near it in secrecy, and looked on it as an exile and a wanderer. I walked up the little lane, St. Gabriel's Walk, and by the shore of the calm quiet lake. Everything was very still; no one was about, and the twitter of a linnet from Its perch on the twig of an ash-tree was the only sound near me. The trees, which ought to have been full of bud and promises of summer, were frost-bound, and a great stretch of snow-covered park-land, with dark belts and plantations of shrubs and evergreens, lay between me and the Grange. Then I came to the low stone wall and the gate where Gilbert and I used to meet and part The lichens were lightly hidden in snow, lirat here and there an ivy-leaf peeped out green and unfading from the gray and white, I stood th#re in silence, and prayed Heaven that Gilbert at least might be happy, whatever was to be my lot; and I plucked gently one green ivy-leaf as a memento. And on the still air there seemed to come from the pine-trees the fragment of a song— '"WbaU'er may be, wh«r«>r thou art, T>ear love, I lore thee evermore.' Only a whisper, a whisper T*nd«r and soft, loring and sweet, Only a wkisper, a whisper Frova hearts that may ner«r mor* meet!" For months after that nothing altered the quiet cvreat of my life, and I thoughtnothlng ever Would do so again. I had given up expectation, and I imagined hope was dead. Hy duties required all my attention; I had &o time to repine or moan. It was better so. I heard of Hilda's marriage with Lord Ormsby, one of the fashionable matches of the season; and I had many letters from Annia. I suppose she guessed gradually what had happened; but she betrayed it only by an extra loving tenderness in her letters. She knew the separation between Gilbert and me was filial, and I knew she was longing to reunite us. "When she was Ulric's wife, she begged me to go and stay with *her at Marlands, and she told me how everything looked, and what was changed. In one note she at length spoke of Gilbert's absence and its cause. "Gilbert will never come to the Grange, but he would be happier if you were there, Viola. He says he would return at once to England then. It is yours, you know." At the bottom of that same letter was scribbled a careless postscript— "You remember Mr. Carden, who used to be Gilbert's partner? Have you heard about him? He has appropriated a lot of money given him by a client to invest, and made off to America or somewhere, no one knows where, three months ago. Some people say that that Frenchwoman who was Gwendoline's maid, and whom Gwen dismissed so hastily, went with him; but that is too ridiculous, isn't it? You never know what viliage- folk will say." 1 heard too from Gwendoline. Her letters were full of her husband. I saw that she was learning more day by day of the worth of the love she had so nearly flung away for ever. I liked to think of her, changed as she was from the bitter passionate woman of two years before to a happy loving wife. 1 dwelt on her happiness as the best panacea for my own wounds. Jff I had been able so to alter her life, I ought not to fret at my own lot The separation of Gilbert «nd me was nethfng compared with the caso of Martin Pomeroy and his wife. So I lingered over Gwendoline's letters and over each word in them that breathed of happiness, and perhaps exaggerated that happiness to- myself, seeing that it was what I wished; but even then I was conscious they were not all I had hoped. Still there was a restless murmur, still a shadow seemed to lie between her and Martin; she appeared to be aware of it, and to be trying to^argue It away by telling me she was at peace. She harped on what had happened more than was natural; it was as if the ghost of the past haunted her path and would not let her rest. I tried to think myself mistaken, to think my own morbid fancy imparted this mean- Ing to her words; but the more I pondered them the clearer was this undercurrent re- •J vea!ed,\and then the seal seemed affixed to tny own sorrow, and the world around me •was dark indeed. Was this to be the end? Had 1 done no good? Had I not at least made Gwendoline happy? For all that Gilbert and I were suffering, was there to be no recompense in the life of Martin ami his wife? Could Crawford Canien have jrousht her out even iu far India? Suroly that could not bo! n i A T T K U XXIV "Miss Tlioruo, Miss Thorne, hero (s a letter fur yon t'i»om Indi.i!" I was hoping; for it, and my thoughts wore bark jit tlit1* old (iriinw as I >tooil by tiio w i n d o w of tho tu'liooiiooin, -wouiug for my pupils to romti w lny;ikf,isf.

Ernie, the eldest, came rushing into the apartm nt impetuously from the diningroom, where the post-bag had been opened. "Here, Miss Thome—you like to get letters from your friend in India; don't you? I think I'll go to India when I'm a man. It's a jolly big place, and you've only te sit and be punkahed, and lot the blackies do everything, and go out tiger-shooting when you like. I think I would do that every day, and kill frightfully big ones, and mamma would put the skins on the drawing-room floor, and say, 'My son in India shot that fellow i'" I took the envelope from him, but I only looked at the slender hand-writing I knew so well, and waited until the meal was over, the children sent out for half an hour's play, and I was alone before opening the cover. I could not read Gwendoline's letters in the midst of their merry chatter and distracted by their demands. The letter began in a sudden Impetuous way, as if she were speaking, but it held me spell-bound from first to last. "Viola, how you must hate me! How can you bear to think of me, to write to me? Why don't you poiszm the dear kind letters you Bend me, ami tell me how you detest my name? Viola, Viola, 1 never guessed what I had done—1 never dreamed 1" Of what was she dreaming now? "I thought only of myself and what you had done for me, never of what return your kindness might have brought to you. Oh, how could you still be silent and let me escape? How you must hate me—but not more than I hate myself and condemn the weak fool I once was I My dear friend and sister, I don't know how to write to you or what to say." The writing was all unsteady and shaken, and the marks of tears were on the page. Dear, noble, impulsive Gwendoline? What would I not do to help her? "I have learned all the story," she went pn. What story? "Gilbert is here." My heart beat fiercely. What did she mean? He knew nothing to tell her. "He has been wandering about the earth, and he came here at last to us and asked if Martin could pet him an appointment. So I heard the truth; you and lie are parted for ever! He would not tell me why, though I urged him to give me an explanation. I tiiink there must have been a dark shadow of suspicion, a preat terrible fear looming in my Drnin. Still he held out, and would say nothing—nothing—till he fell ill of fever a few days afterwards; and he was weak, and thought he should not live. Then he told me—me alone—as I kaelt by his side. " 'I want you to tell her,' he said, 'if anything should happen tome, that I forgave her, and that I did not believe what they said to me. but only what I myself knew. I believe she. cared tor me before Crawford Carden made use of the time my uncle afforded him to entrap her heart I believe she would have confessed she did not love meat first; but that will silenced her. She thought to marry me for pity, and she returned his letters to Carden—1 saw it done —and she would have tried to keep me deceived and been true to me—in a way. I was an^ry, madly angry; but when I came to think of her, her sweetness and her frank bright eyes, I saw this must be the answer. I left her; it was all I could do. I hated the Grange and the money, and I hated Carden; but I could not hate her. There was no truth in what Hilda said—that Viola was marrying me to stop legal action and secure the Grange, while she loved and always had loved Carden. Tell Hilda from me that she was wrong!' "Viola, what do you think I could say or do? I was turned to ice. I could not move. He spoke so earnestly, pleading and explaining, and I was dumb. I saw it all in a lightning-flash that scorched and burnt me. I thought my sin buried and forgotten, and it shot out in flame before my eyes. I fancied no harm had been done. I had been stopped in time, and was safa; and I forgot you. Viola, you do not know what it is to nave spent such a day AS that was to me. You will never know. If you had, perhaps you would think I have atoned for the misery I have caused you. "And at last, after struggling1 * day and a night with every kind of nightmare, fantasy, and perplexed delusion, I made up my mind to tell it all—ttie whole truth—to mv husband. I shrank from it like a coward from the lash. I had only just learned how uoble, how good and tree he is; I had only iiist learned to love him, to value what I had nearly lost. Lately, too, 1 knaw there had been a cloud between us. I thought he was finding out how unworthy I was. It was only a small cloud, no bigger than a man's hand; but it had made me strive doubly to win him. To tell of this that had been so carefully hidden, not a breath of which bad reached his ear, would decide all. "I had not the slightest hope of his forgiveness, and It was harder, out here in this stranee country, without you near, than It would have been at first. But you had done more for roe. I took him all my letters to Crawford Carden, the ones you got back for me, and I confessed to htm the whole story, the beginning to the end. Beatrice might well Viola, thank Heaven for a good man's Jove! I had done nothing to deserve it, yet it was still mine. He told me then what caused the little cloud. He had letters from Mathiide, the woman 1 trusted as me«enger, my maid, warning him, speaking or Carden. hinting things ten times rreater than had ever been, and of letters I nad bought back for a thousand pounds. He had not credited her lies; but yet the poison had rankled, and he had quickly seen the reluctance and the shrinking with which I answered questions as to Gilbert's partner. But now he believed me, since I had told him everything unasked. I said you could bear witness that the letters I gave him were ail; but he answered that he would not cdoubt my word. There is a weight off my heart, the full heaviness of which I did not know till it W&H gone. I fancied I was quite happy when I came here with Martin; but there was a phantom of fear dogging my path, and I have learned that nothing but honest truth will silence lying whispers. "But you—you can never forgive me! That year in which I and Martin learned to know and trust each other saved me: but von have had to bear the burden. When Gilbert is conscious again, Martin wIH tel him how truo you are; you shall be cleared lull viand perfectly, Viola; and I pray Heaven Gilbert may come back to tell you so. If he does not, my heart will break, my grift will be greater than yours. It is worse to bear the effect of one's folly than one's •goodness. He must recover; he must! Heaven cannot be so cruel now! I would not have written to you until the fever had left him, but it was impossible to wait I am sure he will not die, Viola—dear true little Viola! Try to forgive me. " ( i " Winter had come; the loaves had long since fallen from the tish-treo, and the snow lay thick: upon tlu; ground. I had been asked to st:iy over the holidays with my pupils, and 1 had consented, because 1 did not want to interfere with the iruiotv at home, and it seemed that, if I returned, I must. Grace had written to te!i me of her en^a^ement to a yonn^ elerpyman iu Cloistovham, and 1 miliccd Low iMivfiillv slie wrote, for fear of hurting my feelings or opening up my wounds. Dear little Grace, it was very good of her, and I know that*t home they would all feel the same; I and nay willow would be out of place. Where I was none knew anything about it, or took any heed of my ! feeling* or spirit*, so Ion* as I looked alter iuy duties and kept the little boys out of mischief. It was the first ChrMtnas I had spent away from home, and the season made it by no means an idle time for me, this excited, preaentr-giving, merry-making period, in the midst of a large family of eager boys and girls home for the holidays. I had no Ies$- sons to superintend; but I had games to devise, pursuits to advise, gifts to invent, invitations to address, and endless secrets to chare—half a dozen children, instead of two, to look after. My hands were full. "You must not let the children make t slave of you, Miss Thorne,"said their mother amiably. ;, But I did not care; I liked to have plenty to do. Gwendoline's letter had filled my heart with wild hopes and fears; I thought of her and of Gilbert all day long. I wondered at first if he knew yet that I was innocent, that all his suspicions wero based on air. Had he forgiven me? And then followed the terrible shuddering thought Would he be taken from me by the cold hands that could part us for ever on earth, by the decree no human will could alter or revoke? No tongue could tell of the fever In which I lived after that letter from Gwendoline reached me, of the joy and the agony, the triumph and the terror, the sweetness and the bitterness that flooded my soul with turbulent emotion. I knew what Gwendoline must have suffered before she could bring her proud sensitive nature to confess how she had stooped to folly; and I cannot say how thankful I was that what she kad done for me should hare brought a blessing on herself. Henceforth all was clear between her and Martin Pomeroy; there could be no more concealment, for he knew and had forgiven all; there could be no fear, for perfect love had cast it out. But what of Gilbert? There came one sentence written in the big bold hand I knew and loved, now feeble and uncertain—only one sentence, and that from the song he used to sing, the song which had been wafted to my ears by the low gray wall— "Dear love, I love thee evermore." "He is not well enough to write more," said Gwendoline. "But the worst of the danger has passed, Viola. He says ae will get well now, and the doctor hopes it" Only hoped! It seemed very hard that he was so far from me then, that I could not hear of him every hour and watch his recovery. I thought I could have cured him so much more quickly than any doctor; and now it waa days and days before I could even learn whether he were out of changer.. And then one mail came in, and brought no letter for me. No letter, no word of him at this Christmas season, when every one was happy; and I cried out against this darkness of doubt and loneliness, while already the golden dawn was at hand. • • » • • » • On Christmas Day I walked down alone to an early service at the church, to soothe and comfort me a little by taking my thoughts higher, above this earthly life; but, as I came bock down the white road, I let my thoughts wander once moretoMarlanda. In snow and sunshine I had seen U last; snow and sunshine were around me now, and the trees glistened and the fields dazzled my eyes with their whiteness. There was no Manor House looming through the morning mist and the bare branches, there were no glittering windows or outline* of turrets and gables, there was no lake sparkling in the sun. I could hear some distant bells clanging joyously, and I stood by the garden gate listening to their peaceful gladness. The chimes came but now and again, borne upon the breeze in soft and sweet cadence, and their whisper was gentle and calming. In the frosty haze through which the sun wa$ struggling I saw picture.) of the past and transient gleams of the future. As I stood dreaming there, I saw a man coming up the road, a rail dark figure standing out strongly from the white snow and the sunlit background. I watohed him—I did not first know why—intently; and my feet were chained to the spot where I utood, and my heart began to throb and my pulses to beat until I could no longer hear the bells. He came nearer, and still I stood trembling and shaking like a leaf, unable to move my eyes from his advancing figur^, unable to think clearly why I was gating ou$?and staring thus intensely, whether my dreaming hr.d been succeeded by hallucination, and a crazed phantasm was filling my brain and making my eyes the fools of the other senses. ^ And then I saw a handsome fair face, thinner than I had seen and known it of yore, and a pair of bright eager eyes. And when I saw them I taw nothing more, and knew nothing more bnt that I was in Gilbert's arms and listening to His voice, and that suddenly I heard again the joy-bells, not whispering now, but bursting into a wild triumphant peal of happiness and peace.

GOING IN THE SPRINGThe cultivators of what the New York Sun calls the stunted grain-fields j of the East will bear with mixed feel- I ings the reports of the yield that has ! been gathered from the farms of the Northwest.

The truth appears to be, and the Now York Sun explained the reason, that the soil of Manitoba and the adjacent provinces is exceptionally r eh and specially adnnted for mixed iirming by .eas «n of t- adaptability to wheat, and from the ru-h grasses that grow so luxuriantly throughout the country.

' The wrong way, with Catarrh, is to stop it without curing it. The poisonous, irrita* ting snuffs, strong caustio solutions, "creams," balms and the like may, perhaps, palliate for a time.

In Eurpope the dome iti distinctively a feature of church architecture, and of church architecture, and of church architecture alone, and when Baron Hasenauer proposed to use it in this museum, many considered it a sacrilege.

It is a triple-peaked mass of dark brown basalt, fcix or eight miles in length where it fronts the river, and rising to a height of almost L'000 ivvt above the water. That it is in motion is the last thought that would be apt to suggest itself to the mind of any one passing it; yet it is a well'' established fact that this mountain is moving slowly and steadily down the river. This strange phenomenon is attributed by geologists to the fact that tho basalt which constitute the bulk of the mountain rests on a substratum of conglomerate 01 of soft sandstone, which the deep, swift current of the mighty river is constantly wearing away, or that this softer sub-rock is of itself yielding at greater depths to the enormous weight of the harder mineral above. The progress made recently in the l/nited States in the work of turning out modren high powered steel breech loading rifles and mortars most .far... coast defence is encouraging. Lato advices from the United States armory at Watervliet state that three 8-inch rifles have just been shipped to San Francisco, and the twelve more guns of the same sort are ready for shipment. The force of workmen at the arinory are bnmly ongnged in completing a number of heavy rifles of 10 to l'J-inch caliber. Many.steel breech loading mortars are also completed, and a considerable addition to the mortar batteries now existing can be made in a very few weeks. Several modern rifles are already mounted at San Francisco, and there are half a dozen of them, including one 12-inch gun, at Sandy Hook. If Congress will do its part in appropriating sufficient sums for the purchase of land and the construction of fortifications the principal seaboard cities of the I nited States can be made' impregnable to foreign assault in two years time. and arches are dazzling with chromatic tints. The capitals and pedestels of the columns are of gilt bronzo, tlie floors are prismatic mosaics, and the ceilings are a sky of paintings. Much of the wall and ceiling paintings was done by Hans Makart, whose style was well suitecN-o such extended docorative works. The ceiling of the entrance-hall is covered with avast painting, the work of Michael Munkacsy, apotheosis picture was-'painted on a single siieet of canvas, woven expressly for the purpose.

A uoantry merchant comes in to buy spring or fall goods and he gets, in to the store of one of thesr professed Christian men who have really no grace in their hearty, and he is completely swindled. lie is so overcome that he cannot get out of town during the week, lie stays in town over Sunday, goes into borne church to get Christian consolation, when, what is his amazement to find that the very man who band* him the poorbox in the ehurch is the one who relieved him of his mouey! Hut never mind; the deacon has his black coat on now. He looks solemn, and goes home talking about the '"blessed sermon." If the wheat in the churches should be put into a hopper, the first turnof the crank *fould make the chaff fly, I tell you- Some of these men are great sticklers for gospel preaching. They say,"You stand there iu bauds and surplice and gown, and preach—preach like an angel, and •\«re will stand out here and attend to business. Don't mix things. Don't get business and religion in the same bucket. You attend to your matters and we will attend to ours." They do not know that God sees every cheat that they have practiced :n the last six years; that he can look through the iron wall of their fire proof safe; that he has counted eyery dishonest dollar they have in their pocket, and that a day of judgment will come. Thesse inconsistent Christian men will Bit on the Sabbath night in the House of God, singing, at the close of the service, "Rock of Ages Cleft for Me," and then, when the benediction is pronounced, shut the pew-door, and say, as they go out, "Good-bye, Religion, I'll be back next Sunday." I think that the- Church of God and the Sabbath are only an armory where we are to get weapons. When war comes, if a man wantc to tight for his country he does not go to Troy or Springfield to do battling, but he goes there for swords and musket*. I look upon the_chureh of, Christ and the Sabbath day as only the place and "tune" where and when we are to get armed Christian conflict; but the battlefield is on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. "St. Martin's," and "Lenox," and "Old Hundred" do not amount to anything unless they sing all the week. A sermon is useless unless we can take it with us behind the plough and the counter. The Sabbath day Is worthless if it last only twenty-four hours. There aTe many Christians who say "We are willing to serve God, but we do not want to do it in these spheres about which we are talking; and lt seems BO insipid and monotonous. f We had some great occasion, if we fc i lived ia the time of Luther, if we had been Paul's traveling companion, if we could serve god on a great scale, we would do it; but we can't in this everyday life." I admit that a great deal of the romance and knight-errantry of life have disappeared before the advance of. this practical nge, The ancient temples of Rouen have been changed into storc-ho\ises and smithies. Tho residences of poets and princes have been turned into brokers' shops. The classic mansion of Ashland has been cut up into walking-sticks. The groves where the poets said the gods dwelt have been carted out for fire-wood. The muses that we used to read about have disappeared before the emigrant's axe and the trapper's gun. and that man who is waiting for a life bewitched of wonders will never find it. Again, we need to bring the religion of Christ into our commonest trials. For severe losses, for bereavement, for trouble that shocks like an earthquake and that blasts like a storm, we prescribe religious consolation; but, business man, for the small annoyances of last week, how much of the grace of God did you apply? l>Oh!" you Bay, "these trials are too small for such application." My brother, they are shaping your character they are souring your temper, they are wearing out your temper, they are wearing out your patience, and they are making you less and less a man. I go into a sculptor's studio, and see him shaping a statue. Tie has a chisel in one hand and a mallet in the other, and he gives a very gentle stroke—click, click, click! I say, "Why don't you strike harder?" "Oh!" he replies, "that would shatter the statue. I can't do it that way; I must do it this way.'1 So he works an, and after a while the feature* come out,and everybody that enters the studio is charmed and fascinated. Well, God has yonr soul under process of development, and it is thc little annoyances and vexations of life that are chiseling out your immortal nature. It is click, click, click! I wonder why some great providence does not come, and with one stroke prepare you for heaven. Ah, no. God says that is '• not the way. And so lie keeps on by sirs »kcs of little annoyances, littk* • sorrows, little vexations, until at last you shall \>v a glad spectacle for angels ' and for men.

I do not know but that God is, through it, holding communication with what we call "irrational creation." The cow that stand/ under the willow by the water-course, cnewing its cud, looks very thankful; and who can tell how much a bird means by it* song? The aroma of the flowers Bmells like incense, and the mist arising from the river looks like the smoke of a morning sacrifice. Oh, that we were as responsive! Yet who thanks God for the water that gushes up in the well, and that foams in the cascade, and that laughs over the rocks, and that patters in tho showers, and that claps its hands in the sea? Who thanks God for the air, the fountain of life, the bridge of sunl tarns, the path of sound, the great fap on a hot summer's day? Who thank* God for this wonderful physical organism— this sweep • of the vision—this chime of humony struck into the ear —this soft tread of a myriad delights over the nervous tissue—this rolling of the crimson tide through artery and vein—this drumming of the heart on our march to immortality? We take all these things as a matter of course. I was preaching one Thanksgiving day and announced my text: "Oh, give thanks unto the Lord; for he ii good; for his merey~endureth forever." I do not know whether there was any blessing on the sermon or not; but the text went straight to a young man'fc heart He said to himself, as I read the text: " 'Oh, give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good—* Why, 1 have never rendered him any thanks. Oh, what an ingrate I hare been!" Can it be, my brother, that you have been fed by the good hand of God all these days—that you have had clothing and shelter and all beneficent surroundings, and yet have never offered your heart to God? 0, let a sense of the divine goodness shown you in the everyday blessings melt your heart; and if you have never before uttdftred one earnest note of thanksgiving, let this be the day which shall hear your song. What I say to one, I say to all of thi» audience. Take this practical religion 1 have recommended into your every* day life. Make every day a Sabbath, and every meal a sacrameut, and every room you enter a Holy of Holies. We all have work to do; let us be willing to do it. We all have sorrows to bear; let us cheerfully bear them. We all have battles to fight; let us courageously fight them. If you want to die right you must live right. Negligence and' indolence will win thc hiss of everlasting scorn, while faithfulness will gather its garlands, and wave its sceptre, and sit upon its throne, long after this earth has put on ashes, and eternal ages have begun their march. You go home to-day, and attend to your little sphere of duties. I will go homo, and "attend to my little sphere of duties. Every one in his own place. So our every step in life shall be a triumphal march.and the humblest footstool on which we are called to sit will be a conqueror's throne. Dont'i for Bachelor*.

The child must like it. It must be prompt in action, giving: immediate relief, as childrens1 troubles come quick, grow fast, and end fatally or otherwise in a very short time. It must not only relieve quick but bring them around quick, as children chafe and fret and spoil their constitutions under long confinement. It must do its work in moderate doses. A large quantity of medicine in a child is not desirable. It must not interfere with the child's spirits, appetite or general bealth. These things suit old as well as young folks; and mak£ Bo- Bchee's German Syrup the favorite family medicine. * <D fWSHILOH'S CONSUMPTION CURE.

Its V»m the Atlantic Vaymge May Bo 9l»d« in Four Day*— Ammonl» Us* Successfully AygAmiX tu btoaiu Kl LLS<'AU- PAIN. 25 G A BOTTLE IVORY SOAP 99S-Pura THE BEST f OR EVERY PURPOSE, Yhe engine3 ou the iug-lx»at Edwin Hartley, of New York, are of a type calculated to interest engineers greatly, writes John K. Kobison in tho Detroit Free Pro,?!*, und, ia fact. to ivrouao the curiosity of all peopla in tho development of now ideas. They tiro much like tho ordinary engines in tug-boaitj und are adapted from the original compound engines used in tho tug-boat Hut they givu the same Bpeed to the boat that thoy uaod to give when steam was u.scd, and are run with exactly ono-h<±lf tho amount of coal the old system required. The saving comes from the use of ammonia gas, in the placu of steam, as the source of the power. Tho gas pusses through the sumo cylinders that the steam was used in. It is known that the ste:tm engine is very economical, but comparatively few people know that the umount of work used is hardly more than one-tenth the total energy in the coal, By far the greatest part of this great waste occur* in what is knowD as the condenser, where tho steam that has been used is converted into water. This loss is only increased whon tho steam blows off into the air, for then the whole of tho heat is lost; that is to say, alt tho heat in the steam being of a certain value, say 4,250 units, only about 12.3 are used in the best modern steam engines. The loss in the condenser is caused by the absolute loss of the heat required to turn water heated to tho boiling point to ateam, or about 1.U00 units. Inventor Campbell has found that ammonia requires much less heat to vaporize it than water does and has conceived the idea of using chat gas in the place of steam. As might be expected, he encountered many difficult^ es in the way of—putting his idea Into practice. In tho first place, ammonia gas itself cannot bo made liquid, a necessary operation^- above u temperature of '3\)°L This great difficulty ho has avoided by using aqua ammonia The water easily absorbs the ammonia gus and thus can be used. Then ammonia water cannot be used in boilers on account of the great corro.- tivo power of the liquid. So ho attaches an evaporator to the regular boiler and evaporates the ammonia by using steam from the old boiler. AIL tho heat of tbo steam is thus used and we have'no waste there. Tho ammonia gas found in this evaporator, which is practically the- only addition made to tho machinery of tho tug-bo;it, goes* to tho engines und docs the work ity stead of tho steam. Then it comes to some cold ammonia- water and is absorbed und passes back to tho evaporator. As in tho uso of ammonia it t.;ik«s loss than 400 \inits to evaporate the liquid into gas, tho waste is shown to bo decreased in tho ratio of ten to four; tho ton representing the 1,000 units lost with steam, and tho four tho 400 units lost with ammonia. Thug theoflicicncy of tho engine is more than doubled. Tho advantages claimed for this sya. Sem tiro: 1. Tho economy; but one-half the «wal is noeded to run this typo, of engine that was required to run tho steam engine. This claim has proved to bo good from actual practice on the Hartley, whore only one furnace is now in uso in the old double furnace boiler. '2. Tho system is easily attached to the present engines and requires very littlo expense to fit it in place. ',]. Tho boilers last iongor, as the water in them is always pure, while nramonia gas, being in itself a, good lubricant, the uso of oil in the cylinder is dispensed with. This advantage would about double tho life of tho machinery. Tho system is as easily cared for as tho old one and tho gas does not leak out the ordinary glands and packing being1 sufficient to keep it confined. I!, on further trial, this system should prove tho great success it now promises to bo. tho new Atlantic lines will bo out of tlato in two years and a four-days trip from' new York to Queonstown will scion bo not at all uncommon. Tho amount of coal required to be carried and burned is divided by two. This- great economical advantage" ]s enough to commend it to every user of an engino. and especially to marine engineers, where each pound of coal carried means one pcutul less of cargo to bo carried. After all this, and ia view of the* fact that there aro no disadvantages worth mentioning, it seems probable that tho stenm engine, pure und simple will soon bo out of date, and this now and great improvement iu tho lino of boat engines will be used.

A Shanghai correspondent ^wea details of u terrible atrocity committed by Chinese rebels ou the bcrdor of Manchuria, uud of equally terrible punishment intiicted by tfoverument truops upon the captured rebels. These rebels were led by several Buddhist priests, und they wero especially savuge against nutive C'hristiuns. At one place they burned 00 children and butchered nine- Chinese aunu,^.* At another they cremated b'O men whom they imprisoned in >i barn. Their expeditions weiu solely for plunder and without political purpose. Viceroy Li sent a lurye army ugaiust them and their strength was broken. Hundreds of prisoners wero taken. The punishment meted out to the rebels by their conquerors was most revolliuj; and the executions wero conducted on a wholesale scale. Men wer« beheaded by hundreds, and entire trunks of trees were utilized asblocks along which prisoners were ranged iu hues uud their executioners simply mowed off their heads when the signal was given. Generally in China the condemned uro ranged in .small knots kneeling before the executioner, but here the wreched miscreants wero too numerous lor thB usual rules to be observed and they were seized by their queues by soluiers from the other sida of the lately improvised blocks uud their heads lopped off. They were not even tied and tho headless truuks ffll against the block or tumbled backward or to one side when the fatal sword severed the neck.

The North German Lloyd steamer Eider from New York to Bremen, which ran upon the rocks of AlberJield. off the Isle of Wi^ht, is a total loss. Tbe position of the huge craft left her exposed to the full fury of the gales which were blowing. She pounded very hard upon thy jagged rocks; the great rollers of the wind-lashed sea would lift the vessel up as if it were a child's toy and then let it ,1'all upon the cruel rocks with terrific force. It finally became evident that the vessel could not hold together and signals were sent up for help. Tho brave life boat crew after many heroic-rushes managed to get their. boat beyond tho high wall of surf and wore soon at the vessel's side. The Brightstone and Lewis crews also went, to tho rescue and -the ;passengers having long since been taken off— landed tho remainder of the crew. A. few bags of1 the mail from the Eider and 2U7 of her passengers were driven from Atlierfield across the Isle of Wight, to Cowes, where they took a steamer to Southampton. Here all tho passengers destined lor Bremen will transfer to tbe North German Lloyd steamer Havel, which sailed from New York Jan. ~ti, The ear^o of the Eider, including the specie, is valued at f.'iN0,000. The vessel, which is valued at $700,000, is not insured and will probably prove a total loss.

The forces of ttie police were aujjmeuteu and they behaved most creditably, resisting rush after rush, although neaily overpowered by numbers, At the conclusion. of tbe services the return march was commenced uud several attempts were made by the mob to capture the army colors. Desperate hand to baud encounters were had with Hie police, who wero linui/y ovet^ come and the tiag was seized.

"This man was a Cain among1 his fellows, kept two savage mastiffs, who not only burked but bit whenever it was possible. "I was courting my first wife up there in the Cumberland mountains in "•ritish North America where tin's hap )0fcned, and had to pass the house regu larly. I drove a blooded mare that went lik > a. bird, and the dogs were no match for her, but it was very annoy *ng to have thorn follow me down t i e hill for a mile or more barking uud yelling like demons. They will bark at the stage-coaches and run long distances after them, but the passengers were safe inside and the driver and those on the outside were too high for them to reach, lint I heard frequent stories of their attacking men and being beaten off by sticks ami stones. "I asked why they were not killed, and my answer was always the same, a shrug of the shoulder and remarked: 'Yon don't know the kind of man their owner is.' It seemed that he lived alone with his dogs, and people feared him so much they dare not go to him to complain or call on the. provincial laws to help them. "A crisis came when one dav I took my sweet heart out for a sleigh-ride in a low pung belonging to her father, to which wus harnessed my own sure aud swift-footed man1. "It was a lovely day, and wr expected to make a safe and rapid descent of the mountain, a distance often or twelve miles. The air was crisp and cold, the sleighing fine, and we skimmed up the ascent and reached the landing before we knew we had started. "There we were met by tho dogs.

A neat-appearing two-story frame of modern architecture on the Springfield (Ohk)) pike is enjoying a reputation as a place for ghosts to hold their carnivals. It is in the interior of this hou*€ that the ghostly scenes are enacted. The la.st person who occupied the house with his family wa,s a gentleman by the j nr*nc of Prentisa, but hims-lf and family remained no longer than tLey could help. A little child of Mr. Prentiss died, and several of the intimate friends of the family were sitting up with the remains. It was about 12 o'clock at night, nrrd the occupants of the room sat dozing from their vigil, when, with a muffled exclamation, one of the ladies arose from the chair, and, with a trembling hand, pointed toward one of the walls of the room. Seemingly a hand of fire had suddenly appeared upon Uie wall. The hand first appeared near the ceiling, but did not remain motionless. With the index finger pressed against the papered wall, the hand moved downward until the floor was reached. It then returned to the ceiling and back again, making six perpendicular visits downward and upward, aftei which it disappeared and was seen nc more that night. Lately though, the apparition has continued nightly. I low long the mysterious proceedings will continue is, of course, unknown, but at the present time it appears as though the hand of fire is going to leave its mark upon even- inch of paper upon the wall.

There isn't much faith in the prayer that doesn't look for an answer. Everything we ought to do is duty; we owe somewhere all we ought to do. It is more difficult to dissimulate the sentiments we have than to simulate those we have not. It comes so much easier to forgive those who have caused us suffering, when we learn that we, too, have made others t<? suffer. Do everything else in a rush, if yevr. must, but eat slowly. This advice is old, but you will live to be the *amo if you take it. We have learned that conscience whispers to each one "I ought," ami that it does so because what we ought to Jo is good and ri^ht.

The wiir crisis has passed, muoi. to the disgust of the yount^ nava oiiicers and others ambitious of earning J4'1()1T '<-t thermion's mouth, and of the men who liad hoped to lai'^t'ly increase their bank accounts by means of profitable; tfovurmntiiit contracts, and the pleasure of ordinary folks. It is now conceded by those who were at first inclined to blame President Harrison for "Unnecessary haste in sending an ultimation and in sending the ('orn\s])on(lenc(^and his vigorous message1 to Congress, that he was pursuing the very best course to brin,^ about peace. It was necessary to convince Chili that this government intended to enforce the demands it had made by force if it was needed, and in no other way could this have been done so speedily. Jn Congress all political differences were for the time forgotten and everybody became intensely American. The result, as mi^ht have been expected is an abject apology from Chili. It is not the first time that active preparations for war have resulted ill assuring peace. There is a niovemeut anu)iig the Cleveland democrats to throw their strength to Carlisle, if, aw reported, Mr. Cleveland shall decline to allow his name to go before the convention. This inove-, ment is so new thai its strength cannot be estimated at this time, but there are good reasons for the belief that Mr. Cleveland will noi favor the nomination of Carlisle. The senate without a division adopted the report from the committee on elections confirming the right of Senator Chilcot, appointed by the governor, of Texes, to serve out the vujexpired term of Senator Ileagan, to his seat. Kver since China refused to receive ox-Senator IJlair as minister from this country there have been ugly rumors around Washington ! intimating that the influence of certain Americans interested in i certain concessions which they hoped to get grom China had more \ to do with it than Mi", lilair's con- i gressional record on the Chinese : question. \\ hether the rumor influenced Senator Morgan 1 cannot t say, but he this week offered ;t rrsolution, which was adopted by ! the senate re<{uesting the lYe.-,ideJit to furnish co[)ii's of all the correspondence between the two governments on the subject, if it l can be done without injury to the f public interests. • The national board of trade, i with representations from all the ' principal cities of the country, | has been in session here for three j days, this week.

Tho determination to ascertain tho fact upon tho very spot of its production induced him to start forth, amid unheard of hardships and opposition, to-begin-lus work in Mexico, just live-and-forty years ago. "The identity of tho two specimens now before you," saicl the adopt "is absolutely undeniable; they aro the t same in every respect I defy tho i minutest examination of the most • skeptical among tho savants; the color, the weight, tho proportions of tho component elements are identical. And yet here I have boon waiting a whole lifetime for some ono to bring mo help und encouragement to multiply my experiments, in order to convince the world that tho precious metal to which mankind haa over attached such unduo value is of itself valueless.

And how havo you lived all thoso inquired tho interviewer, shivering as he gazed at tho comfortless aspect of tho placo in which this imaginative benefactor of the human race was lodged. And then tho adopt was fain to confoss that while his moral was sustained by tho dream of the futuro wealth of tho world, iu which he could not hope to share, his physique was dependent on his labors as a cheap photographer, at which profession he earns just enough to keep tho few sparks of life still remaining in his poor, worn-out body from being extinguished altogether.

A full re-cord of thiH ellow of cane* iw kept by said judge. 1 assisted ami took charge under the recent law of the tax cases in the circuit court iu chancery. I investigated quite a number of divorce cases where there are children under 14 years of age, for which, 1 get no pay only the general salary unless contested, and only 2 have been contented; I came from my predecessor, and 1 was original with me, in the tirst I divided the £5 equally with Mr. VanWinkle. The exact number of these cases can be found in the otlice of the County Clerk. The pro ceeding is under laws of 1887, page 152, this class of cases incur considerable labor for which no pay can he collected under the statute, Township otlicers have largely consulted the Prosecuting Attorney during the past year in their official duties, and while strictly he is not obliged to advise them, yet thejt and the people think it is his duty to do so, and he has always done so without charge. During the last year 1 have spent more time in my otlice investigating criminal cases, or supposed ones which 1 hail to refuse to prosecute, than I did in trying the above reported cases, and in refusing, much ill-feeling is created on the part of complainants who want to prosecute atnway whether they have a case or not. 'This is the most trying and unpleasant part ot'^the duties of till' Prosecuting A t torney. but the interest nl'the county demand it. and that the expenses be kept down, so the number of the cases tried is only a small index of the amount of work the Prose cuting Attorney has to do, Allot'which is respectfully submitted. 1 )I:NN is Sin r.i.Ds, Prosecuting Attorney.

They were begged to see Manitou and other pretty spots, but there was the yjime excuse. Their letters wore in Salt Lake. They cut short their visit in that city because there were letters awaiting them in San Francisco. The same bugbear pursued Uiem there. In fact, to my thinking the entira pleasure of that trip wa3 spoiled by those horrible letters." O Note Extra information that can be shown with the item.
