not treated tho wliolo thing ho superciliously,
and hiH oousin Laura, in spite of her geuerotiH
behavior, had not every now and then looked
large-oyod disapproval, very likely it- would
Imvf) come to nothing long before. But oi
course those women, and a host of othor female
relations, wore not going to bo wiser than he,
Luoian Lofebvre, captain of Engineers and col
onel by brevet, stationed at tho capital, and
guardian of the nation’s citadel—dancing duty,
Bell called it.
‘‘Introduced lo that doll ?" said Bell, when ho
came up to them, at the Secretary’s, proposing
tliUjii^ttylpolion. Bull was tho mairiud sister;
flolou was unmarried, and a little passce, but a
porson.-jof^liguity. “Why, does hho talk?"
“Quito a piece of mechanism,” said his aunt.
“Very well put.together."
Lefebvro looked at them in amazement and
indignation, “Really," said he, “it is wonder-
iu! what women are made ot.”
“Not this one," said Helen, deliberately put
ting up her glass. “JSho is false from tho crown
of her head to tho solo of her lout, llow can
you bo so taken in ? I don’t know what you are
made oi, Lucian, to think of introducing such
a creature to your sisters, uor how she made her
way here."
Ho was just turning on his heel iu speechless
anger, but remembering that he hud left tho
side of tho lady iu dispute for tho avowed pur
pose of bringing his sisters to her, he exclaimed
“Whatever she is, some oi you must como with
mo and bu presented to her, as I am here lor
that purpose, aud I will not have her insulted.”
“Indeed !” said lleluu, looking over tho top
of huf 1'umiuto iutiuite spape, but not stirring.
“I will go, Lnoian,” said Laura, who had not
spokon. “Come, Bell, help mo out."
“Well Laura, for a little goose! However I
will uivor desert a companion in arms. Do you
suppose she has observed our council ot war?”
as they moved off beside Lucian, with his chiu
well iu tho air. “She is a lino picture. A per
son should go on the stugo I hut can make up us
well as that. I should like to see her iu tho pri
vacy ol her midnight retirement. How old do
you think? Forty?"
Forty !” cried Lucian. “I heard her my soil
arranging ior a | tcuic on her twouty-third birth
day."
“How touching ! Iu the life to come. Her
twenty-third ! She’ll never see her forty-third
again in this life. ’*
“Hell!"
“Oh yes, Lucian; if you oliooso to force un
welcome acquaintance on your family, at least
they must enjoy freodom of opinion concerning
it. Tho very set the woman is with speaks for
her.—Good evening, general. What a crush !
All because of this young Russian hero,a beauty,
isn’t he? Ah, you too are making lor the cyno
sure, I see; ail the world is being presented. It
will never do to follow the fashion.”
Aud directly Lucian was presenting liis sister
Mrs. Gamier,aud his cousin,Miss Laura Nelson;
and Mi-h Nelson had behaved exactly us Lucian
wished; and although ho could never have said
what was wanting in Mrs. Garnier’s behavior,he
knew that a challenge of defiance was in her very
ait, and that lu*r mere manner had told the other
woman what she thought of her. Purhups Bell
pmauuic.fl 111,a ilmt >viib tlio way to innuugu him.
Ho would shortly let her know.
Colonel Lelebvro came clattering down stairs
next morning, his Itorso waitiug at the door.
“Whither bound, Lucian?" cried Helen from
tho library.
“To rido with Mrs. Do Berrian.”
“Oh, your new widow,” nho said, gayly.
“Have you called yet ? No ? II nv very accom
modating m her to lido with yon first!”
“Sne is nut a puuotiiious fool,” he muttered,
drawing on his glove.
Certain punctilios," put in Aunt Susan, “are
only self-respect.”
“It you will go and call with me, Nell” said
Lucian, “I’ve no doubt she will postpone the
ride."
“Now, Lucian dear you know I hate not to
gratify you," said Helen. “But really the last
thing Bel* said was that it would not do. She
should not call, nor could I, if lor nothing t-lse,
for littlo Laura’s sake, who is too young aud iu-
uoceut to have anything to do—”
♦*frsnt as you please,” he said angrily, and hud
slammed the door behind him. You cau imag
ine his surpriso when, as he reined his horse up
at tho steps of tho house where Mrs. De Berrian
was visiting, he saw his cousin Laura coming
down with Mrs. Vaughn, a leader of the fash
ions, with whom she sometimes went out; for
Laura was an heiress, and but little gainsaid in
her wishes.
“I thought you would like to have me,” Laura
said, timidly looking up with her brown eyes,
as he dismounted. She never did have any
spirit.
“It is just like you, Laura,” ho said fervently.
“I—I don’t think you will admire her so much
by daylight," she said, again timidly; and he
had laughed and handed her into the carriage
and disappeared before she knew she had ven
tured to say so much.
But a rnoro judicious curtain had been dropped
within the drawing-room; and as Mrs. Do Ber
rian sat pensively leaning her head on her baud
that bore a gleaming sapphire, a dark curl stray-
iug over tho contour of the white hand set in its
lace ruff, and tho damask shadow of a great vase
of roses on the table, taller than herself, falling
round her, Colonel Lefebvro thought lie did ad
mire Mrs. De Berrian quite as much by daylight
—although it occurred to him later that Bell
would have called it rose-light or curtain-light
instead. Ho was confirmed in his admiration
beforo he leit her. He was not sure but that by
tho time ho saw Mrs. De Berrian again he should
be really in love with her. And his little cousiu
Laura? Well, thank Heaven, he could afford to
marry.where he chose.
She was rather an enchanting woman after her
kind. “I will tell you about her,” said Laura to
CQUpins, when she had endured their re
proaches. “She makes it a vital point to please
—in her pctBon, her manner, her voice. Her
face oan-only afford smiles, so sho never resents,
not even such a look aB Bell’s. She was charm-
ngly dressed. She is visitiug people just on
the verge of society, Mrs. Vaughn says, but she
doesn't seem to belong to them. It is my belief
that she has had moueyj run through nearly all
of it, and that this is her last throw for station
and a husband."
Laura, where in the world," cried her dis
pleased aunt, “did yon pick up such—”
“French novels," said Bell, who had ran ovor.
I must say, Laura, I thiuk you took a great
deal on yourself. Now she will return the culL"
•She—sho would like to be respectable,"
stammered Laura. “And you know veiy well
that if. you want Lucian to go aud marry such a
woman out of hand, you have only to persecute
her.”
“Persecute her 1 You do use select terms.
Wo let her alone—which you had better have
done*”
•‘I—I didn't want Lucian to bo mortified.”
“So yon mortify us."
Aud by tho tiuio Lucian came home, Laura
was iu a flood of tears, and subbed out, iu reply
to his amazed inquiry, “Oh, they are abusing
mo so 1” And then every ono laughed at tho
idea of their abusing little Laura, tho darling of
tho house.
“Well, well, Laura" said ho. “I’ll not abuso
you. I invito you to our picnic to-morrow to
Great Falls. Mrs. Do Berrian will chaperon
you."
“Mrs De Berrian 1" roso the chorus.
“Madame Arroyo, tho Spanish minister’s wile,
invitos her."
“Well, to bo Buro," said Boll, catching her
suspended breath, “nobody knows anything
about her either—an adventuress, all tho lega
tion say."
“Tho Count Zara escorts her. I suppose no
body knows anything about him."
Tlio Austrian nttacho —yos, ho hit Nell hard
then, ho thought. “And tho young Russian
duko that enchauted you ho—"
“Oh, men, all of thorn 1"
“Very line men, aud somo of tho finest ladies
at tho capital. I'll tako cure ol you, Laura, if
you’ll go."
“I’ll go Lucian."
“Perhaps she’d best," said Bell to Ilo’en, at
tho door. “I shouldn’t let him out of my sight,
if I woro slio."
It was a month later when Boll ran over ono
evening, as usual, now thegayeties were so low,
aud sat talking gloomily with Helen.
“I uevor would liavo believed it of our Lucian,”
said she. “Ail but engaged, as he was, to
Laura, and with her fortune, that would huvo
just doubled his own, and she so gentle—and
now perfectly lost nnd iniatuatod over this
French doll."
T can't imugiuo that it is tho same brother
who turned palo when wo came down with car
mine on our cheeks tho day aftor wo first saw
the French play, aud who expostulated with us
so."
“Oar turn now."
“Ho would liavo made Laura such a good hus
band," said ouo.
“But now this demoralizing woman—'
And while they woro bomoaning his deelino
and fall, tho subject of their complaint
whirling away in a palace-car, surrounded by
wraps and rugs and lunch baskets and periodi
cals aud French candy and Mrs. Do Berrian, the
wax-lights shining softly down from above on
the charming picture tho lady made, ns, having
removed her hat, sho leaned back among her
cushions under the shelter of tho rose-colored
scarf passed over her dark curls. Mrs. De Ber
rian had been summoned to New’ York on im
portant business; Colonel Lefebvro had sudden
ly found that ho had business there too. Mrs.
Do Berrian perhaps mount to give him some
business beforo ho returned. Neithor ol them
was aware that behind the curtains of u neigh
boring section, whoso berths had been made up
aud occupied just as tho train started, reposed
one of his aunts nnd his cousin Laura.
II simply nn infatuation over mere beauty
were in case, no one could marvel at Colonel
Lefebvre’s infatuation. By candle-light at night,
behind a veil out-doors, in tho dim, deep-cur
tained drawing-room, Mrs. Do Berrian was
worthy n painter’s pencil—delicate features,
scarlet lips; deep dimples, penciled brows, the
sparkle of teeth, tho salt dark glow of great
eyes, the snowiness ol tho forehead under mul
titudinous waves ol shadowy hair—beauty could
hardly bo butler imaged forth, although possi
bly one might tiro of it, and oi the set unvary
ing smile, for all its sweetness. Luciau had not
tired of it yet; once or twice there had crossed
his mind a suspicion that its owner was not al
together a woman of high principle, but wheth
er he had put tho thought away as treasonable,
or had lelt with a not unusual masculine vanity
that he could change all that, or had not just
then cared so much for high principle, it did
not hinder His own color from mounting when
he looked at hors, or his pulse from quickening
when this woman touched his hand. As for
Mrs. Do Berrian, slio was I oginuing to feel a
tolerable assurance that at last her pendulous
position on “the verge of society” was to be ex
changed for tho fixed and solid station of a
member of the Lefebvro family, with all their
wealth and rank, their respectability, considera
tion and friends. Aud when it should be—why
then she meant to show tho women in that fam
ily who she was.
It came near being a settled fact that night as
they rolled comfortably along,almost all the rest
of the car behind their curtains, tho soft light,
half gloom, half light,falling softly on tho lovely
face, a setting moon travelling with them, and
looking in tho window at every turn. Colonel
Lefebvro had changed his seat for ono at the la
dy’s side, that tho sleepers might not be troubled
by their voices—his voice, lather, for it was ho
that talked; sho listened, with tbo lovely smile,
tho musical w< rd. llis arm lay along tho back
of the set, his face was bending over hers; her
great eyes wore cast up at him in tho dim light;
her lips seemed to Ire in Ido. He was noting tho
gentle rise and fall of her breath, tho charm ol
every outline of tho beautiful head resting on
that hand with its beaming sapphire, aware of a
stmugo quick throb with the thought, half a cer
tainty, half a fear, that all this was doubtless his
should he chooso to take possession—
“Tickets!" said somo one at his elbow—the
conductor, who had come aboard at tho last sta
tion, and who mistook them for a portion of the
gay party that had been taken on with himself.
It broke the spell lor that night. Colonel
Lefebvro started to find how late it was, aud
went away lo his berth leaving Mrs. De Berrian,
ill pleased, to order tho porter about as he made
up her own.
Colonel Lefebvro woko very early on tho next
morning from his iitlul slumber, restless with
feeling and with heat, aud looking from his win
dow, saw that they woro rolling along the green
flats ot New Jersey. Then ho half parted his
curtains, and took au observation down the car.
Some one was up beforo him—somo young girl;
ho could not see plainly, with all tho obstruction
of drapery. There was a familiar fling of a scarf.
Good gracious ! was that his oousin Laura? The
sight of her made him fall back on his pillow
aud begin to recall the oveuls of the night be
fore. It was just then that somo one came rust
ling by his closed curtains—a lady who wished
to make her toilette before the rest of tho car
was astir. The sound slopped short; tho per
son did not go on. Instinctively Colonel Lefob-
vre glanced through tho crack of his curtains.
A uotting of the lady’s fringe had caught on the
hook of some projecting valise—tho porter was
disengaging it—an oldish,frowsy sort ol woinau.
Ouo uplifted baud grasped tho onrtaiu for sup
port; upon it shone a gleaming sapphire. The
drops started out on his forohead. Was it—Im
possible ! Ho sat up aud gazed at her. She
held a toilette case iu her other baud. She was
making for tho littlo dressing room. There was
the same brouzo green lustre of silk, the same
black lace about tho throat, the lapel of the same
rosy scarf of woolen gauze had been that instant
thrown up from her faoo. But. that face 1 No;
it was an absurdity* And yet— It had been a
horribly hot night, tho best of paint would run;
the best of powder would cake and roll off; tho
poneiliug of brows would rub all about; the pig
ment that so darkened aud increased tho eyo
would smear hero aud there raggedly. What
had happened to that moulh ? Or
woro iu her hand. The dimples—they were two
long lurrowv; tho scarlet of the mouth had some
how streaked them. Aud as for tlio dropping
curls—they were dropping off. Tho beautiful
Adelaide Do Berrian had gouo out like tho blown
flame of a candle, and left only tho ashes—had
lelt only a worn and withered woman with white
lips, and a wrinkled pallor that was blotched and
bleared, whose faoo had been a mask, “whoso
mother was her painting."
“ 'False from tho crown of her head to tho
solo of her foot,’ " he repeated, in Helen’s words,
find shut bis eyes; and thore sat Laura, brown-
oyod and fair, with her smooth hair, a littlo Ma
donna of a face, as ho opened them again. An
hour afterward, tho othor women of the car hav
ing clamored iu vain tho lust third of that time
for admittance, an elegant lady issued* from tho
dressing-room,crimped and curled and powdered
—a bloc ruing, smiling picture—seated herscll in
her rearranged section,and awaited her cavalier.
Sho waited a long while. When she was in tho
dressing-room that cavalier had stepped oil' tho
train at Elizabeth.
As Colonel Lefebvro sat iu his aunt’s room in
the Brevoort that night, ho replied to her query
concerning his gloom, “Let mo be. I have a
right to bo a littlo disturbed. I Lavo lost a
friend. I have escaped a torrible danger. I
have found au invaluablo possession that I had
mislaid. What did you briug Laura here for?
Her Rummer finery? I am going to tako her a
long drive in tho park to-morrow morning. Say,
Aunt Maria, don’t you make any purchase till
wo como back. And, Aunt Maria, don’t you
think it would be stealing a flue march on them
all at home if Laura and I went back on one
ticket—"
“Ono ticket;?"
“Well, no, not exactly. Husbauds and wives
arc not ono financially—nro they? Railways
haven’t any sentiment."
ALU THAT COULD KB ASKED.
[From the Atlanta Constitution.]
A number of papers in Georgia, some of them
friendly to Atlanta aud others opposed to her
have frequently called upon tho Constitution to
say whether or not Atlanta would renew to tho
people tho liberal proposition she made to tho
Convention concerning the buildiug of a capitol.
The Meriwether Vindicator has beeu especially
solicitous, aud has said that hundreds oi white
votes in that county depended upon the renewal
of the proposition. The matter has been con*
stautly alluded to by our enemies with a sneer,
and by our friends with auxiety.
Tho Constitution has said nothing on the sub
ject heretofore, simply because it did not desire
to speak without authority. Whilo it recog
nized the fact that Atlanta was under no sort of
obligation to renew tho proposition, it felt that
tho city would not fail to be as liberal with the
people themselves as it had hecu with theii rep
resentatives. Perfectly coulideut that tho coun
cil would renew tho proposition,tho Constitution
has awaited official actiou, which it presents this
morning.
It will be seen that Atlanta renews in precise
terms tho proposition she laid belote the conven
tion. The action of tho couuci! on tho mutter,
duly atlesiel, has been placed on file in tho ex
ecutive department. This proposition is not
only liberal, it is munificent. It is a gift from
Atlauta of $1150,000 in value.
The renewal of this proposition ir all that the
friends or enemies of the city have asked for.
Wo ask that it bo received fairly by the newspa
pers that have been discussiug the matter. That
is all we ask.
It may bu urged by tho enemies of Atlanta
that tho constitution prohibits any city trom
making such a gift us Atlanta offers. Wo call
attention oi such persons in advance to pur. 1,
sec. vi. of tho constitution, where it is especially
recited that, “if any municipal corporation
shall offer to the State ouy property for locating
or buildiug a capitol, and the Slate accepts such
offer, tho corporation may comply with such of
fer." This clauso was inserted by motion ol
Mr. Ilammond, on purpose to meet this very
case.
Wo herewith append the offer in detail:

scarred plains, looking and Hoeing every hillside
crowded with evidences of war. Rcmomboring
that your soil has been staiuod by precious
blood poured out by brave mon who wore fight
ing honestly for their convictions on cuch Bide,
I am glad to como here with him aud see the
motto that 3*ou have written thoro of pence aud
harmony once more restored in our beloved
country. My friends, in tho few remarks I have
had tho honor of making as I have been iu this
triumphant precession of tho President I have
studiously avoided uny allusion to politics. 1
have tried to subordinate them entirely to a feel
ing of patriotism, aud I urgo upon you now,
mon of tho South, as far ns possible, to forgot
past differences between our people, to devote
yourselves to developing uud opening up tho
bust resources ot this oountry. I want to urgo
upon you this thing, uud wo will have powor
and peace uud happiness ovenuoro.
I huvo not spoken oi politics. It was ray
misfortune, perhaps, to differ in politics from
tho President ol tho United Slates, but Democrat
I am, Democrat as I have beeu, thore is no
man iu America to whom I moro cheerfully,cor
dially and willingly do honor than tho Republi
can President of tho United States. I do that,
my friends, becauso ho is showing that he is tho
President of tho wholo Uuitod States. I do that
because he, in the very uct of his administra
tion, lilted that great pressure which was upon
the neck of my own people. Mauy of them
who said that he had but done his duty had never
smelt powder. Show me the mau who will do
his duty without fear and without lavor aud
who v ill not do moro than his duty, aud I will
clasp hands with him and will stand ou the
same platform. [Applause.] die has brought
back peace to our people; he has shown that
tho men who have fought each other cau
meet in peace and fraternity 7 , without any loss
of respect. Wo could not do it when the State
was piuued down by bnyouets, and tuy right
arm should liavo dropped from my shoulder be
fore I would have given my hand in peaco while
my State was pinned down by bayonets. [Ap
plause.] When we felt that every State was the
equal of every other; that every man iu every
State was equal, whito and black; when tho
groat Uopublicau party, the dominant party,tho
representative of men whom wo fought, came
forward and said, “Wo respect you hs mou who
fought for your couvictions, as men who fought
bravely, aud us loug as you could;" when they
came forward aud said that to us of tho South,
aud extended tho hand of peaco aud said: “We
were ouly fighting to restore the Union, come
back into the household of States, como back to
the hearthstones of your fathers," I felt that
better things would be accomplished. I felt as
a Southern mau,as a .Southern soldier,as a rebel,
if you choose, I could come back. [Applause.]
I told the men in Illinois that I had fought
them us loug and as hard as I could, aud I would
havo beeu fighting them now if I had been or
dered to do so. They houored aud respected
me for it, and that is tho way for us to meet, as
bravo men should meet; if not forgetting the
past, at least drawing a curtain over it, looking
not at tho bloody past, which is full of sorrows
to all of us, but looking ierward to a brighter
aud higher future, when all of us can march
bravely, honestly and truthfully, euoh ono doiug
his duty *.o tlio wholo country, leaving tho con
sequences to God." [Loug'and continued ap
