The proposed canal treaty, between the United States and Nicaragua, was unanimously ratified by the Nicara gua Senate. Ex-President Davis is reported to be suffering from a return of rheumatism and the breaking out of his old wound received in Mexico 38 years ago. "Bill Arp’’ is on a lecturing tour in Texas, anil is writing some interesting letters to the Atlanta Constitution.— We copy, in another column, his let ter from Dallas. The cotton factory known for the past fifty years as “Grays,'’ at Ellicott City, Md., has been closed indefinitely The operatives are going elsewhere in search of employment. Tlie body of a man found in East river, New York, a few days ago, has been identified as that of Mr. W. H McKinley, of Charleston, who disap peared from a Jersey City ferry boat January 8. Within a week, preceding March 28, the loss of Osman Digna's forces amounted to 4,000 men. If the Arabs can do so little with only a few thousand British to contend against what will he their condition when the British forces are trebled or quadru pled in the fall ? The Department of Justice has been notified that Marshal Hughes, of the Virginia District, has been arrested in Texas, there being an apparent ilis orepaney in liis accounts of about $8,000, Which he is called upon to make good. Execution of Wm. Neal.—Wm Neal was the last of the so-called Ash land murderers. He was executed at Grayson. Ky.. March 27tli. He as cended the scaffold with firmness and composure. “This”, said he, “is no place to tell a lie. I am about to suf fer for a crime I did not commit, and one day my innocenca will be estab lislied beyond a doubt. 1 hid you one and all good-bye. Oh! Lord, thou knowest 1 am' innocent; into thy hands I commit my soul. 1 am inno- nooent.” These last words were said just us tlie drop fell. He was pro nomiced dead in ten minutes. None of his relatives were present. We have received a pamphlet enti tled "Printed Poison”, bv Josiah W. Leeds, 528 Walnut st., Philadelphia. The author shows the connection be tween tlie flash literature of the day and juvenile law-breakers. He says “manufacturing criminals is a paying business”—one of the proprietors of a weekly journal of this stamp died re cently leaving an estate valued at $1,- 500,000. He says, “suppressing the pernicious is not muzzling the press,” and that the constitutional amend ment guaranteeing the liberty of the press was never intended to license the vending of printed poisons. To censure licentiousness is to maintain tlie liberty of the press. The author t'ggests that ‘irfdividual faithfulness should impel those who have convic tions against demoralizing literature not to patronize such publications, and 'proposes plans of relief by law. The price of tlie pamphlet is 8 cents by mail; or 00 cents per dozen. Dr. James Woodrow, late Professor in the Columbia Seminary, thinks he is thought to have been guilty of here sy in teaching the doctrine of Evolu- lion and desires a trial by tlie Presby tery. The Presbytery recently held at Union Point, appointed a committee to take action upon Mr. Woodrow's com munication consisting of Rev. H. M. Newton, Union Point, Rev. W. Adams, Rev. G. T. Gretcliius and Mr. James W. Wallace of Augusta aud Col. J. A. Billups of Madison, to examine into the rumors complained of, and if they found that they justified legal proceed ings to report tlie same to the Presby tery. The intelligence, and distin guished Christian character of this committee, give assurance that jus tice will he done to Dr. Woodrow and the four Synods who complained of his teachings in reference to Evolu tion. Tlie committee, it was stated, would commence their work at once, and tin adjourned meeting of the Presbytery will he held in Augusta at an early day to receive the report of the committee. The session will he full of interest to the public gen erally, as well as to the Presbyterian denomination of Christians. 34 m No One Is Dismissed Who Performs His Duty. This language we frequently hear. This signifies the retention of Repub licans if they attend to their duties. Of course they will do that to reta.ii their places. This means a Democratic ad ministration with republican under officials. This is carrying out civil service reform. This would he well enough if the Democratic party lack ed material for honest and faithful performance of duty. This means a Democratic administration with re publican clerks. Let us say in truth that we have no ill ■will to republican officials, but at the same time let us say this is unjust to democrats who fought tlie democratic battle and won the victory. Mr. Hendricks knows better what is right, and what is best for the Democratic party. It is stat ed that in every selection for office at his disposal he lms chosen a Democrat and it endears him to the Democratic party and makes him at this moment the most popular official who has been exalted to official station by democrat ic votes. There is injustice and cruel ty in tlie opposite plan. The whole civil service policy as a general rule is a cruel and ridiculous absurdity. A few days since there was a commis sion in Atlanta to examine candidates for certain stations. People who wan ted certain places, such as post offices, route agencies and other places, had to travel at much inconvenience, loss of time and expenditure of money to At lanta to he examined by a commission sent to that place to examine them, and decide whether they were competent to perform the duties of the offices to which they aspired. They were asked questions in geography, history, per eentage, interest, discount, accounts. English language and government, spelling, arithmetic, and writing, to see whether they were fit to manage a Finall post office* or to perform the du ties of a route agent on a rail-road, &c. When the writer was Postmaster at Augusta, some of the best route Ageuts in the service might have been unable to answer some ordinary questions on any of these subjects. It was not necessary for them to under stand them, to perform those duties faithfullv and efficiently. The old plan of the recommendation of a mem ber of congress or a postmaster at some important place or the recom mendation of citizens for an appoint ment to the Postmastership of a city, was a simple and sufficient commenda tion without all this school bov exami nation and sickly scholastic folly. We would state that we do not refer to all classes of appointments. Examina tions may be proper in appointing engineers in the marine service. It is important that in these departments and in some others that appointees should he thoroughly qualified for the positions conferred upon them and as a general rule that cannot be better as certained than by competitive exam inations. Washington Letter. From Our Regular Correspondent. ARP’S TRAVELS. Washington, March 30th, 1885. Government machinery is running very smoothly under the new manage ment, and it is conceded on all hands that more and better work is accom plished under the neft- regime. As yet the heads of the different departments have been able to do very little in the ivay of reorganization and reform, but the needlessly complicated systems of the various bureaus are receiving care ful study, and it is expected that from 1500 to 2000 clerks will be discharged in Washington alone. A large crowd gathered about the stables last Thursday at the sale of Government horses and carriages or dered by Secretary Lamar. The ele gant equipages brought good prices, but the money returned to the U. S. Treasury is but a small portion of the amount that will be saved. An ele gant and expensive stable with grooms, drivers, and horses, all costing not less than $12,000 or $15,000 per year will no longer he maintained at the expense of the tax payer, and the example of honesty and democratic frugality will he felt in all the branches of the ser vice over which the Secretary of the Interior presides. It appears that the example of econ omy has already been felt by the Re publican majority in the U. S. Senate, for the caucus has debated a proposi tion to reduce the expenses of that luxurious body $75,000 or $100,000 per year. In the first place, they propose to return to Gen. Ben Butler the House for ivhich the Senate has paid an annual rental of $15,000, and next, to reduce the number of clerks and employees of whom there are many more than are needed. President Cleveland is maintaining his reputation for a thorough worker. He keeps cool, does one thing after another, never attempts to do two things at once, and has ample time to look into and examine all the ques tions he is called upon to decide. His habits of hard work and long hours will enable him to give great work be fore him conscientious and careful at tention. There is no doubt that he is more or less bored by tlie crowds of cu rious people who more than mere of fice seekers are anxious to see the President, but he does not fret or wor ry. A friend suggested to him the other day that a certain appointment which it was known would particular ly please a certain newspaper might he advisable on that account. It would secure the friendship of that paper for his administration absolute ly. His reply to this was: “Oh, well, they have all got to come to it, any how!” He does, in fact, believe that every reputable newspaper in the United States is hound to come to liis support, because he does not intend to adopt any course of action as Pres ident of the United States which rep utable journals can succeed in persuad ing their readers is wrong. When our bilious republican friends recall their gloomy auguries of what would follow the election of a Demo cratic President, they must be amazed at tlie inaccuracy of their imagina tions. A few weeks ago they were in dulging in horrid visions of long haired tobacco eating bandits who they thought would take the Capitol by storm and rob the “truly good” and daintily nice of their soft seats and their salaries. No civil service law. they predicted, could stand between these long famished “outs” and the long withheld good things of office. The Union soldier would nave to give way to the gaunt and Imngry grey coat. The dreaded Democratic Presi dent is in the seat so recently occupied by Grant, Hayes, Garfield, and Ar thur. And yet tilings in Washington go on very much as before. There is no decline in real estate consequent upon the dismissed government clerks having their houses forced upon the market. In fact there is no depression anywhere, except in the minds and hearts of those clerks who are con scious that they have nothing to do and have no reason or right to draw salaries from the public treasury. Outside of this army of Republican spoilsmen, loafers, and creatures, male and female, who have been appointed and upheld solely by “influence”,—all is peaceful and prosperous at the Cap itol, and numerous republicans are now saying that the change came not a day too soon. Farm and Household. Instead of trying to save money, wise economy in a farmer dictates the policy of seeking profitable modes of investing it. It shows great wastefulness in American, and especially Western, farmers that the hulk of flax grown in this country is harvested for seed only. The fiber thus wasted is probably worth $20,000,000 per annum. A German paper states that the penetration of roots in drain tile, which sometimes occasions much trouble, may be prevented by covering the joints in the vicinity of trees and red clover with earth in w r hich a little coal tar has been distributed. A barren, cheerless highway, a bleak, unornamented homestead too often indicates an improper early education, and wrong notions in regard to the value of trees and flowers. The rising generation should be trained to know the importance of ornament on the farm. The objection to timothy hay that it is often very dirty, is generally caused by the pollen of the flower, which makes a fine powder when dried. The grass should he cut either before or after this stag to avoid this, preferable before, as after the timothy goes out of blossom the stalk be comes woody and innutritious. The old-fashioned sweet or flowering pea is excelled by few floivers in all that makes a plant popular. Frag rant, beautiful, liardv. easily grown, it should never lose its place in the farmer's garden. In fact, it might, with great advantage, be substituted for many of the fancier flowers of fine estates. Almost any culture will suit it, and the reward for its planting is always sure. If one has not time to make poles for it, give it room and let it trail over the ground. In this man ner it will make a tangled mass of great beauty. Mixed seeds of different colors are preferable. To start oleanders from slips get a glass fruit jar, sift nice, mellow earth in it till it is two or three inches deep, or till it touches the end of the slip, then pour water over it until it is full. Set it where it will not be necessary to move often. After the roots start sift more earth over, fill again with water if needed, and so on until it is full and filled with roots, then care fully break the glas off and transplant to a pot, and you will have no trouble in starting it. Always pot roses in sandy earth, letting the end touch the side of the pot. Put a lamp chimney over it, and the chances for success are good. Good care with plenty of room to exercise is better for "poultry than dosing with medicines. But laying is an exhaustive process, and some stimulant may be needed to put hens in condition for further service. One of the best tonics is known as the Douglass Mixture,” from the name of an English poulterer who used it with great success long before his neighbors discovered the secret. It is composed of sulphate of iron eight ounces, sulphuric acid one-half fluid ounce, with one gallon of water. The iron in copperas has the effect to make the combs red. Sulphuric acid is alone a most fiery substance and will burn or eat into anything except stone or lead, hut it forms a part of all condition powders prepared for do mestic animals. MANNERS AND CUSTOMS OF TEXAS. Constitution. Dallas. Tex., March 25.—Where do all the people come from and what are they after. The cars are full of them and the hotels are crowded wherever I go. They come and they go. They seem as restless as the troubled sea. The crowd that was here yesterday is not here to-day, but their places are filled and I see new faces all the time. The hotel register here at Dallas shows arrivals from sev enteen states in the last three days, and most all of them mean business. As I sit among them in this great large lounging room 1 cannot help wondering what is their business and what they are thinking about, and how many are happy and how many have some secret sorrow, and I -wish 1 was a mind reader and could follow them in their thoughts of home and family—wife, children or mother away off sonieivliere. How much we are all alike if we only knew it. Sometimes 1 venture a remark to a stranger who sits near me by the stove, and I am glad to say 1 have always found them courteous and willing to talk to me. When I draw them out on home and distant kimlred it seems a welcome subject, and as we get more familiar, they warm up, and will venture to tell me of tlieir families and their business. Strangers in a strange land are very quick to appreciate civility. A man may he offish and uncommunicative when at home, hut when he gets away off he looks longingly around for a friend—somebody that knows some body that he knows. At times I have felt awfully lonesome in my wander ings over here, and I would have re joiced with unfeigned gladness to have seen my little dog Fido. I could have almost cried over the affectionate wag of his little tail. This ever-constant mingling of tlie people from all the states is obliged to do good. We are all assimilating; we are rubbing against each other more and more ev erv day, and we understand each oth er and find that we are all just human and are sailing in the same big boat upon the sea of life. The north and the south, the east and the west are being fast drawn together, and not even the politicians can much longer keep us apart. Whether we are inde pendent states or a nation makes no difference now. We are all Americans anil are proud of our country. Dallas is a beautiful city of about forty thousand inhabitants. Dallas is rich. Her hanks have tivo millions of paid up capital. Her merchants do a large wholesale trade with the smaller towns, in a large circuit of country —a farming country that is rich and fertile and in a higher state of im provement than any that I have yet seen. Dallas is speckled with old Georgians and their descendants, and I have had a continuous love feast with them. The old gray-haired men talk to me with glistening eyes and ask a thousand questions about our Georgia dead and their living children. What reverence and affection they have for Howell Cobb and Stephens, and Toombs and Colquitt and Judge Un derwood anil Major Cooper. An old gentleman called on me this morning and said his name was Lyon, and that he had been living in Texas forty-nine years. He is a hrother-in-la-w to Dr. Powell and Colonel Stevenson, the diamond man of Gainesville. He ask ed affectionately about Judge Under wood, and said, “Oh, how I used to love his wife -when she was a school girl, hut she didn’t love me, and so I joined a company to avenge the death of Famiin and Bowie and Crockett and that settled me ‘in Texas.’” I lectured here last night to a large audience that did me more honor than I deserved, and by ivav of reminis cence I paid a tribute to the grand old ftdiig party of the south, the party that represented the wealth and cult ure anil aristocracy of Georgia, and after the lecture many of the old time ivhigs in the audience gathered around me and thanked me. What a bond there was among the members of that party. How they did love and honor and idolize their leaders. They swore by Henry Clav and Filmore and Stephens and 'foombs and John Bell and—the code of honor—and those ivho are alive swear by them yet. This bond was never more signally il lustrated than when Dr. Felton ran against Dabney and Lester, for al though they were the nominees of the democratic party the old line whigs could not go back on the doctor, for he was one of them, so he had the support, open or covert, of Toombs, and Stephens, and Dr. Miller and al most every old whig in the district'. But the bond is almost gone, for tlie bondsmen are nearly all dead. H oiv grieved was I to hear that old Major Cooper was dead. That grand old gentleman of the olden time. I was proud to call him my friend. What an influence for good he exer cised all liis noble life, and that influ ence, like a sweet odor, still lingers with the generation that has come after him. Thei;e is no telling the val ue of such men to the human race. It cannot he measured, hut it leaves its mark and the conduct and destiny of many a man has been shaped by them. He ought to have a monument where it could be seen and where the fathers could say to children there lies a man who was an ornament to hu- maniry—a man who served his day and generation as a man should serve. He did not die rich, hut he died with all the honors that become a man. Would that 1 had been there to have shed a tear at his funeral. I dined yesterday with General Ca bell, a noble Virginian, the mayor of Dallas, and ivlio was the quarter-mas ter general of the army of the Poto mac. Of course we indulged in memo ries of the war, and it was delightful to hear him talk of those sad and glo rious days. “How is my old friend Major Ayer,” said he; the gallant hero of tlie great battle of Drainsville; the man ivho took 600 ivagons over in to a valley to capture anil carry away all the hay, and when the yankees got after him he turned his 6 horse teams in narrow cuts that -were only ten feet wide, and fled with alacrity hack to Centerville, and the roaring of his wagons over the pike for twelve miles was like the sound of many waters. We saw the clou^feof dust that follow ed their track and it was like the si moon of the desert. Old Joe John ston had tlie long roll beat, and the universal cry was, to arms, to arms, ye brave ; but before the boys got fairly started, here come the wagons driving like Jehu and the fat major was doing his best to keep up, and as he dis mounted he was covered all over with dust and perspiration, and, saluting the general with a solemn manner, ex claimed : General, I have brought your ivagons back hut I left the hay anil Tom Taylor behind. How is Major Ayer? He ivas a splendid offi cer and could mount and ride a horse with more ease anil grace than any fat man I ever saw.” I shall dine to-day with a nest of Georgians—for Geor gians are clannish still and so are the people from any other state. They love to get together and talk of their old homes anil the scenes of their youth—and this is natural and it is right; state pride and "state rights” crop out everywhere. These Texans are not at all pleased with the appoint ment of Henry R. Jackson to the Mex ican mission. They say that Texas ivas certainly entitled to that appoint ment for Mexico is her neighbor and the Texans know her language and her people better than anybody. “Who is Jackson?” said a man to me. “Is he a Spaniard or a traveler or what is he? What is his peculiar fit ness for that office that made Mr. Cleveland ignore Texas? He has not yet given Texas a durned thing, and yet Dick Hubbard stumped all over Indiana for him and helped elect him.” Well, the trouble seems tj^j TEMPERANCE IN IRELAND. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CASHEL INTER VIEWED ON THE TEMPERANCE QUES TION. [The folloiving interview doubtless ivas first printed in an English paper- hut Tlie Catholic Review finds it float ing round uncredited in the Irish pa persj: "Would your Grace object to my asking you a few questions regarding the temperance movement?” "Certainly not. It is a matter that I have constantly before me in one shape or other. But, before you begin, let me tell you honestly I think we in Ireland have been a deal too ready to plead guilty to all our ene mies say against us in this matter of intemperance. I don’t see that we are as intemperate as, for instance, the English or Scotch people; and certain ly I deny most emphatically that w are more so than they are.” "But, my Lord there must he some foundation in fact for the charge laid at the door of your Grace's country men. They are not called the ‘drunk en Irish, merely for spite.'’ ‘Well, I believe spite has a great deal to say to it. Their accusers &ink a great deal more than the Irish do, but they drink much more systemati cally. The Englishmen, however, car ries liis liquor better, and so does the Scotchman. A drunken Englishmai staggers home, sodden and stupid, and falls asleep without minding any one If drink brings out the stupidity of the Saxon, it brings out the caution of tlie Scot, ivho can get drunk, and return home, ivithout any one being bit the wiser of it.” " And 1 suppose, poor Paddy, my Lord, has neither stupidity nor cau tion?” “Not he, poor fellow. Drink makes a fool of liim. He must talk to every friend and fight with every foe. He takes a glass or two in town, and the whole parish knows it. He seems to be just twice as drunk as he really is anil where an English or Scotch drun kard would pass muster, he, poor fel low, shouts out his own guilt. And as for that guilt, haff the time I firmly believe that it is tlie big heart and the empty stomach, rather than the big drink’, that we must hold to be the cause of his disgrace.’’ “You think, then, my Lord, that ivere the Irish peasant better fed his liquor would do him less harm?” "I am certain of it. The truth is he eats very little and drinks very seldom Perhaps once a week the Irish country man touches whiskey, or not as often His head is not used to it, as I said, his stomach is empty—and there’s the whole of it.” “But surely there is something to he put down to tlie famous Irish whiskey?” “Famous! Infamous, I should say, If the poor Irish got good whiskey there would he a very different tale to tell. It is the horrible poisonous stuff that the Government allows to he given out .anil sold to our poor people as whiskey that does the harm. It is not that it intoxicates—it maddens them.” “Do you think, then, my Lord, that Government should legislate with view to regulating the age and quality of the whiskey sold by the publi cans.” “Certainly. Why not? There are laws regulating the sale of other poi sons;, why should this poison be excepted?' I am sure a home govern rnent would have long ago passed such a laiv. We are robbed of the liberties ive ask for, and are given the liberty that is ruining us. But it is useless to talk of Englishmen taking the trouble to grapple with this ques tion.” “And what does your Grace say to the total abstainers?" ‘I say, and from my heart, God bless them! Let them stand by their pledges, and not abuse sober non abstainers, and they have my best wishes. They are already a power in the country. ' I have close on a thou sand total abstainers in the parish of Thurles alone; and many of my priests through the archdiocese are cold- w&ter men. Even here the words and example of your oivn great Cardinal have their effect. I think the Irish people should never forget the debt of gratitude they owe Cardinal Manning for all he has done for them in this matter of temperance, and in many graver matter. He has been a true friend in all our needs. His League of the Cross is one of the leagues that we Irish look on with thankfulness and hope.

There were 28,000.000 silver dollars made in 1884, and but 300 in 1839. The most ancient date is 1794. From then until 1804 they were coined continu ously. Then a skip of thirty-two years occurred. Tlie trade dollar is the only thing that has marred the is sue since 1836, with the exception of 1836, when none ivere coined. The silver dollar of 1804 is the rarest Amer ican coin.

The stage was set gorgeously. Every possible requirement of taste had been studied and followed. The scenery was bewilderingly beautiful; the dresses expensive and elaborate beyond description. Art had counter feited nature so closely and so well, that it ivas difficult to believe the flow ers were not real and would not give uerfume equal to their rosy coloring. Never had more attention been be stowed upon detail; so making every portion perfection, and thus blending all into one harmonious whole. It was on the last evening of tlie old year and lavish outlay would be supplemented by an unusual sensation and attraction. One of the fairest, most petted and worshipped of the theatrical daughters of Paris, ivas to say fareivell to the scenes of her tri- umps—was to be married—and the pa trons determined the launching of the bark matrimonial, should he ivafteil from its moorings by the most fervent breath of applause, anil at least start upon the voyage of love-life upon a sea of floivers. With the legend ‘no standing room’ something more than a fable; with every part of the house literally jam med; with ease, of breathing at a discount, the audience waited the ap pearance of the one for ivhoni hail been prepared the display, and to whom they ivere anxious to show their devotion and regret. By some strange fatality,—if the term is admissuble in comnection with the selection of a play purposely chosen to give the actress the greatest opportunity to display her talents, dresses and beauty, it was "The Lady of Lyons; or, Love and Pride.” To the feelings of one just upon the eve of marriage the plot would seem to jar, even though the ending, the tears sweet and holy, might be considered a sufficient recompense for all of trial and separation. But Lora Albert (nom de theatre) gave no thought to this. French by adoption, but Anglo-Saxon by birth, she had acted tlie part of Pauline numerous times, 'knew she filled it, that she fitted it as it did her, and that it was the best in her repertoire for exhibiting her radiant blonde loveli ness, her hair of pale golden tint, and her well developed form—a sufficient reason for any woman. Dressed with more of care and taste that ever before, for love of the heart was added to that of admiration and conquest, she stood ready for her en tree—ready for the altar, all hut fleecy veil and orange blossoms. The custo mary ‘pink satin, neatly trimmed, and train’ (of the published stage directions) had blossomed into an elaborate toilet, anil with diamonds sparkling pendant from tiny ears and rising and failing upon the billowy bosom, while hair, skirt anil corsage were looped or garnished with the rarest blossoms. I have no need to ask ‘who can it be that sends me, every day, these beautiful flowers,’ ” she said with thi sweetest of welcoming smiles to a man who at the moment stepped to her side, “though I might truthfully assert ‘you spoil your Pauline.’ ” “You are looking bravely beautiful,” he answered as he received and warm ly pressed the white, jeweled fingers, extended to him, “and ivill captivate every heart, Lora. “Jealous?” she questioned archly, ‘and if so now what may I not fear after our marriage?” Fear nothing, darling. But to qdote, as you have done, life for me Is ‘made torture by the vulgar eyes and tongues that are as death to Love,’ and it will he for me an hour of supreme happiness when you have said farewell to the stage forever." “And play Pauline to your Claude alone?” “Even so,” he answered far more gravely than she thought the occasion required, “and to consent to your going on even this once to he clasped in the arms of another, is like tearing the strings of my heart asunder.” She looked at him in a half startled, half astonished manner from beneath long, curved lashes before she replied, and the color swept as curdling waves of crimson from bosom to cheek as she did so. “You cannot doubt me, Ray?” “No, Lora, but—?” The prompter’s bell put a sudden ending to the conversation and the sentence was never finished. But it was with heart beating far more fitfully and uneasily than the ovation she received would account for, that Lora Albert repeated the opening lines of the play. Soon, however, all of the nervousness caused by the brief interview with her lover was forgotten, and when, in changed dress of white, and looking bride-like she appeared, there was not a trace of feeling other than pleasure and trust upon her radiant and speaking face. The play continued to the fifth act, she winning new triumphs and regret becoming voiced that one so lovely and gifted, should have decided to, in the hereafter, deprive the public of the privilege of seeing her. Thus far she had trod as upon roses. The stage had been carpeted with them, she had received more than she could carry, and as she sat alone and resting before the final scene when love would be tried even to ‘the loathsome irostituticn of a hand without leart,’ a little fairy of a child came dancing into her dressing-room, with eyes as blue and hair as golden as her own. With the inherent passion of woman and motherhood she raised it into her lap, smoothed the tangled curls, and hugging it to her bosom kissed it warmly, even passionately again and again. It was an impressive, a beautiful tableau, that lovely woman with all of tenderness, and affection shining in her face, and speaking in her caressing touch and softly whispered darling. But it was rudely broken. A sudden sound caused her to look up, and standing framed in the doorway she saw the man to whom she hail pledg ed hand and heart until death did ^Witiuhasty strides he came to her side and in a’ voice hoarse with anger demftfioie chilli is xnau Instantly all the pride and modesty iW ”" d : Tl “ “Mine!” “Yours? And you have dared to deceive me thus? Your child? And I was to be—” He rushed from her presence and from the theatre. The audience saw that night no happy ending to the troubled love of Pauline, and deeply mourned for one stricken down in the hour of her greatest pride, and—so the tale was told—suddenly insane. IX.—THE NEW. It was the New Year in the New World. Th'e snow lay heavily upon the hilltops, was drifted deeply in the valleys and the streams were strongly ice-bridged. Christmas had been a ‘green one,’ with peaceful skies and almost Southern warmth, hut the death of the old year ivas marked by fierce gales and intense coldness. Even the salty waters of the ocean had vieldeil to the congealing power, and ice was thickly piled along the shores. The rigging of vessels was fringed anil festooned with it, and it hung in pen dent prisms from the roofs. _ For the poor the weather was terrible, and for the rich it afforded sufficient ex cuse to remain at home over the glow ing anthracite. But regardless of weather, places of amusement bloomed with the most festive blossoms, and ‘Society’ braved all the rigors of winter to fill their walls. With the closing of the day they became the attractions, and lit tle would one have believed the beg gar ivailed upon the sidewalk for tho price of a crust, or the babe died in the attic for ivarmth, to have heard the rustles of silks, and bail his or her eyes dazzled by the flashing of dia monds. But sickness comes there as well as to the hovel, and the old, repulsive pic ture of a skeleton rising from the heart of a rose is no myth. All the pomp and glory of the theatre is no bar to the subtle coming of disease, and audiences unreasonble as they ever are at disappointment, have to hear as )>est they may when a favorite is overpowered by tne ills of the ma terial body, and forced to play a very different part from that named in the bills. The first night of the jocund New Year is no exception to the rule—as Doctor Elliot had personal proof of when hastening home after seeing the last of his patients. The bright gas light in front of ‘The Minerva' reveal ed his identity to a policeman, who in stantly summoned him to attend a lady suddenly taken with some dan gerous illness. Without questioning he followed and ivas led to the hack entrance of the theatre. For an instant he paus ed upon the threshold and shuddered as with col'* * .en walked calmly for- ivaril anil ft $ ushered into that ideal ized realm o. beauty to the uninitia ted, that gt.. rally barren spot to those ivliose nighty home is behind the scenes—the Green Room. Upon one of the couelies, with many anxious faces around her, lay a woman still young and hearing the traces of great beauty, but with the once soft lines about the mouth grown hard, anil the form wanting in roundness and pristine perfection. That the actress had fallen in a dead faint he quicjdy learned. He gave to the ashy face a quick, comprehensive glance, anil turning sternly away asked her name. One unfamiliar to him was given ; he asked how long she had been engaged at the theatre, and ivas told hut a few months ; he inquir ed as to her residence, and decided that she must he taken there with the least possible delay. His orders were obeyed. A carriage was sent for, her servant procured wraps, anil she was carried from the glare and the glitter, the illusions and the fascinations, never to set foot among them again. The drive was a short one, hut the physician, as is the wont of his profes sion learned as mucli as possible of her history, her manner of living anil that she was unmarried, Then, upon their arrival, as if impressed by what he had heard, he lifted her tenderly and transported her into the house, and instantly gave attention to her necessities. “Heart disease,” ivas the answer he gave to the anxious maid servant, and then with his lips trembling as if he with difficulty restrained them from breaking asunder in smiles or scoffs, he added: “and there are countless phases of it the world knows nothing of. But I do not consider this attack fatal.” He gave directions for her disrobing and being placed in bed, and retired to another room. But ivhile ivcaiting to he recalled, he uneasily walked the floor and grumbled at the delay. His fair patient had not recovered from the severe attack of syncope. The action of the heart, of respiration, of the brain, were still interrupted anil neither sensation, or volition, had re turned. Gently forcing restoratives between the rigid lips anil rubbing the slender hands, he anxiously watched for good results. “Has your mistress ever before been taken thus?” he asked of the Abigail. “Yes, sir,” was answered, “several times.” “When playing the same part?’’ “Always, sir.” “Humph!” and he turned away anil looked long and ahsorhedly out of the window. The incoherent mutterings of the sufferer aroused him, and takin g liis place again by the bedside, but out of view, he watched the painfully twich- ing muscles, the tortured features and the half-parted lips as she, deeming herself still upon the stage, rehearsed portions of the text. Even one less familiar with the mat ter would have seen that her mind was wandering, that she did not realize what had happened or where she was. But the physician gave no sign of his presence. He knew how very much might depend upon rest, and also upon a sudden shock to the nervous system already strained as a bow string unto breaking. By degrees he saw animation return ; saiv a faint flush creep hack to the cheeks and lips anil the trembling cease. Then the eyes opened and see ing familiar objects and the face of her servant bending over her, she faintly asked ; “Margaret why am I here? What has happened? - ’ “Nothing, my lady, only you were taken very ill at the theatre, fainted, and had to be brought home.” “You did not do it alone?” “No, my lady. A doctor came with me.” “Wnat did he say was the matter?” “Heart disease, my lady.” “And he was right, but none of his profession can ever give the ‘sweet ob livious antidote’ that would perfect a ■cure.” _ . She closed her eyes again as if the light was hateful, and sighed as if me was a heavy buiden she would gladly lay down. The physician watchaa her critically for a few moments, then beckoned to the maid and h er Jd .- go and procure some ice. I nei^mr stole noiselessly to the bedside ana bending over the feu- face, exclamaed in a voice broken and thrdhng with C1 “Look up! Look up, Pauline! for I can bear thine eyes. ; “Oh Heaven! Ray. ... Again she fainted, but it was in his anus and it was his kisses—the most magical of medicine—that recalled her to hfe. And sweet beyond all she had ever dreamed of, were the words of explanation and love breathed into her ears, and with a new and holy meaning she repeated: “the night is past; joy cometh with the morrowJ’ It was the beginning of a New Year and a new life to them. Her wrongs had indeed made her sacred in his eyes and heart, and nevermore would the lesson of false and frantic jealousy be forgotten. And as ‘the snow that falls but never melts’ rested upon their hair, Love brought a wanner benediction and he thanked heaven for so h-ich a blessing’, and ever endeavored the better to deserve it by making the lives of others as his own, and giving to each and all “A Happy New Year.” William H.
