It seemed almost an act of poetic the part of the deceased, after all the fuisome adulation he had received from the one, and unstinted abnse he had received from the other, to impose upon the two editors the duty of taking cate of his property and child; for seldom belore was there a pair, so widely dififering in ideas, called upon to perform dutips which required them to cultivate inti mate relations. Because of bk wife objecting to having any small children in her house, but mainly be cause Mr. Van Dusen had expressed a desire to have his son reared in the Catholic faith, Mr. Grenmount bad consented for the boy to live with the family of Mr. Fradden. and for four years he had remained there, treated by Mrs. Fradden with as much care and affec tion as she bestowed upp® her only Rop* ■Charles, now grown a young man of twenty. Marcel, too, had progressed marvelously since he was brought to Mr. F rad den. From a timid, spirit-broken child he had grown a fine, manly little fellow, full of life and ener gy. He was very affectionate to Mr. and| Mrs. Fradden, and was particularly fond of Tom (Suckers, who took him to the theaters and on excursions, besides not objecting to havinga romp with him in the pack. Tom also appeared to have a warm attachment for the ^•D-nme,* he would say, “FiDe little fallow, sir ! Pity he's got so much money. Would make a "first class newspaper man. Just cut for it” But Tom’s powers of observation, though very great, were rather premature in this case, considering that Marcel was but twelve years of age and was not yet educated. He had, for over three years been under the tuition of Father Melrose, but that priest hav ing been ordered to Baltimore, several months had elapsed since he went to school. Mr. Fradden had several times requested Mr. Greenmouut to appoint a dayfor them to hold a consultation and decide what measures should be adopted for the future of the boy, bat that gentleman was so busily engaged writing editorials, delivering lectures en political economy and cultivating a model farm, that he utterly neglected doing more than verbally ^■uthorizmg bis associate as he thought best nati, induced ns at once to execute a purpose, deter mined on eomriaoulfes ago, to submit a sample of our Atlanta-made Beer to the same competent chemist for analyst*, the sesult of which, with the correspon dence, ere give beloa: Atlakta, Ga., July 2, 1873.

There are too many men in professional life already. There are too many men in the cities. Turn his atten tion to agriculture.” D—n me” muttered Tom, “pity you hadn't cultivated cabbages all your life.” Then he said aloud “Wont do, sir, wont do at all. No man with forty thousand a year is going to bury himself in the country’ and raise potatoes. Must see life, sir.” “Yea, see life” replied Mr. Greenmount satirically. “You’re a fool, Suckers. Let him see life, I suppose, for him to end like the man that murdered his father. For him to gamble away every dollars worth of his property. That’il be the end of him.” “But, my dear sir,” suggested Mr. Frad den, “Isn’t it rather early to make any pre dictions regarding the fate of the boy.” Mr. Greenmount gave no reply, but sat quietly thinking for an instant “Do as you like with the boy,” he said at length “I agree to Suckers’ proposition. Send him to Baltimore, to Father Melrose. His father desired him brought up a Catholic and I won't interfere. Will talk about his prrfeevfcm seme other time. Good diy.” He was about to leave when he Mr. Fradden called to him. “Can’t stop” he answered “ I have to write] lour editorials, attend an agricultural meeting, receive a deputation of Squash raisers and deliver a lecture on the nutritious qualities of the Pumpkin, between now and nine o’clock to-night. Fob! This place smells horrid, id is d—d hot!” As he turned and left the room, Tom follow ed, and on looking at Mr. Greeumount’s back grinned broadly. The philosopher, ignorant that there was anything peculiar about him, walked down the steps and into the streets, where presently he was somewhat surprised upon observing that he was followed by a small crowd of urchins, and that all the men smiled as he passed. He thought it a rather | singular .circumstance, but was unable to ac count for it until Tom approached him, with las serious a face as he could command, and to do.

Look here,” and he laughed heartily in ever on the fence. In bis public or private life, whether things went right or wrong, he was certain to be influenced less by his own judgment than by the judg- spite of himself. The fact was. the paper which Mr. Greeu- mount had placed on the chair, and which be stt on, were proofs of posters, fresh from the mentand a<lvice of others.

In j making it look like the brand on a convict’s only one thing was he consistent, and that ! clothes, and reading backwards, thus: was in his political principles, or, it would be safer to say, in the political principles enun ciated by his party leaders. It he editorially denounced a certain idea on one day, and they declared it a dogma of their political faith on the day following, he would, without a single murmur, at once enter upon a vigor ous defense of the very idea he had emphati cally condemned but two days previous. Mr. Greenmount was a somewhat different character in this respect. With regard to his asked Mr. Sniff. “D—u me. No, you may not” answered Tom. '<9aftWse?ou are to know aW about Mr. Koppered s business? You clerks have a great deal of impudence. Give him my mes sage. He if ill understand. ” The business which Tom made such a mys tery of was nothing more than about a new invention, the patent ot which Mr. Koppered had bought, and desired a long article lauda tory of it published in the Goran Daily Re peater, as soon as he obtained patents for certain improvements which had been made to it. Torn, however, was not disposed to inform the world, much less Mr. Sniff, of this proposed transaction with oth ers. He had, indeed, taken good care to let the moral man know that he bad returned to Belle the fifty dollars, Mr. Sniff had paid him for taking her message at the time she was placed in the asylum. Nor did he omit then to bluntly inform Mr. Sniff that if that gen tleman was taking pay for serving a woman, as he very much feared he was, he deserved to have his head smashed. Finding that he could not learn what the business was, and promising to give the mes- Mr. Sniff turned to his ledger again; but before he had written a line, looked up and called to Tom, who was sauntering out of the store. Bless me,” he said; “I almost forgot. I have a letter for you.” Letter for me? ” observed Tom. returning to the counting room. “ How the deuce did you come by a letter for me ? Let’s have it” Without explaining how he had come m possession of the letter, Mr. Sniff unlocked a drawer of the desk and taking it out handed it to Tom The letter was from Belle. It was not dated, neither was there anything in it to designate where it was written. From the fact that it was not stamped, Tom at once surmised that it had como enclosed in another addressed to Mr. Sniff. It was simply ad dressed to “Mr. Thomas Suckers,” and the contents were as follows: Monday Morning.

Do you need assistance ? I think when I last saw you, you complained of being in bad circnmstances.” With the old dignified air that contrasted oddly with his threadbare clothing, the ex member of Congress, put his hand in his vest pocket, as if for the purpose of drawing out money. Tom shook his bead. “I’ve heard all about your misfortunes, Mr. Lauroussini,” he answered, “Heard it was re ported that you had left the South and come North, D—n me. I’m sorry for yon. Sorry to see you looking thus. Owe you some money, you know. Borrowed a great deal from you at times. Haven't the whole of it with me now. Would like to pay you a part.” Mr. Lauroussini drew himself up and pushed back the hand which Tom extended to him, containing four five dollar bills. “I never lent you any money, air,” he re plied. “I am not in need of money, air. How dare you, sir, address a Southern gen tleman in this manner?” For the time being the man forgot bis wretched appearance, and spoke with all the haughtiness he was accustomed to when liv ing in Washington, the leader of his party, and the possessor of immense wealth. Tom was touched even at his assumption. “D—n me, it’s hard,” he aaid; “can I do nothing for you ?” “ Yes, sir, you can, ’ replied the other; “you tean oblige me by leaving me, and never ad dressing me as lamiltariy again. Remember As the edi- ed information, write me and give the letter to Mr. Sniff*. He will iorward it to my ad dress. I suppose it is useless offering to recom pense your services, but should you be at any expense in this matter, oblige me by stating in your letter what the amount is, so that I can forward it to you. As I am certain you will do as I ask, please accept my thanks in advance. Very truly yours, A. L. Tom's arm came down heavily upon the desk as he finished reading the letter, very much to the astonishment of Mr. Sniff. “How long have you had this?” he asked. “Since day before yesterday.” “D—n me, why didn’t you send it to me?” said Tom angrily. “You knew where I was to be found. You've played the deuce.’ “Why, what do you mean?” asked Mr.I Sniff. “None of your business,” rejoined Tom, walking out of the counting-room. He left the store and proceeded on his way back to the Repeater office. About midway a young man of medium height, about twenty years of age, with a face that bore a strong resemblance to Mr. Fradden, came beside him. “Well Tom. ” said he, “Where are yon going?” “Glad to see you Charley,” responded Tom. “Ain’t going anywhere particularly. Suppose we drop in at the Bohemian Shades.” Mr. Charles Fradden, Jr., agreed and the two were soon seated in the saloon named. Look here, Charley” said Tom, “You must help me ia a little business.

Mr. Fradden grew angry, pnahed back hie chair, and elapped the top of the table. ‘ ‘Do yoa mean to oay I am a fool and an ooa ?" he inquired, looking very red in the lace. Mr. Graenmonnt haatily rose and took a glance at the door. “Y«a,” he answered ; “I mean to lay that." “Then I oaeert that yon ore ua mnch a fool and an aaa I in," returned Mr. Fradden, drawing hi* chair np to the table again. store, on reaching which he found the propri etor absent, and Mr. Sniff in. That moral man woe deeply engaged in the mysteries of a ledger, but interrupted his work to look up os the reporter entered the conntins-roora. Intuitively each hod learned to dislike the other—Tom, because he regarded Mr. Sniff as a hypocrite ; Mr. Sniff, because, os he mid, the profanity of Tom shocked him. Neither, however, had ever quarrelled, although it mast be admitted tbat Tom had given the worthy man provocation enough for a row. But Mr. Sniff was essentially a man of peace, and besides which he bad ODce seen the of the Southern member of Congress who was rniDed recently.” “I wrote an article about hi m myself” an swered Charley, with a look of pride, as he twirled a feeble moustache that sprouted from his upper lip. D- n me, so you did,” observed Tom, with a grin, “and used up every adjective in the language on it. Very good article, though," he added, observing the other look ing serious. “Mast have my joke, you know ?” “Well, what about him ?" “I want to find him.” Then Tom mentioned his having met Mr. Lnurissini and the conversation that passed between them, and of his having within a quarter of an hour after received a letter re questing him to find out where the unfortu nate man lived. "I I'd only received that letter yeeterday," he aded, “I'd have followed him until I found out where be lived. Pretty rough on him, poor fellow. Never saw him so digni fied and haughty before. You'll help me, I suppose?” “Certainy,” replied Charley, “if you can show me how. ’ “Io this way,” returned Tom; “have to leave town to-morrow, you know, on busi ness for the paper—old man determined not to send any one else. Suppose you persuade him to keep me here V" Charley promised to do ss he asked, and accordingly saw his father and spoke with him on the subject. Mr. Fradden desired that Tom should go, because he was really the best descriptive reporter io his ernply, and 1 the work to 1m done required a thoroughly able writer. But Mr. Fradden seldom or never argued a question any length of time with his son, whoso influence over him was becoming stronger every day. And, indeed, Charley was really an able, strong-minded young man, of a far mow decided character than his father, and not at all likely to lead him astray. The wind-up of his interview was that an other reporter was detailed for the work, and Tom then set about the finding of Mr. Lau- roussini's dwelling. He felt assured that he was living in some one of the tenement honsee, in the poorest ward o f the eity, but as there weye not lees than two thousand of these tenements in the ward, his task was by no means an easy one.
