Window It was insigiiilicant enough in itself, but every thing has value not lor what it /i«.s, but for the use which it makes of what it lias; aud there was a great deal seen through Peggy’s window. First, one looked straight out upon a pint ofgruss spotted in with dandelions; aud be yond, at the waters of a wide lake where busy ships ciiue and went; while between the green grass and tile blue water ran a broad street, where all duy long and far into the night heavy wagons, handsome carriages, and crowded coaches went to aud fro; aud along the edge of the bluff that looked down on the lake children played, and lovers walked un der the lindens in summer evenings. All this and a great deal more Peggy saw as she sat in her low willow chair by this win dow, that opened level with the ground ; for Peggy's kitchen was in the basement of an ancient looking house, built up of cobble Stones and mortar; a house that was new when the broad, busy street before it was only a bridle-path. This was the reason of the strip of yard in front and the deep garden behind, bought when land was plenty and low, along what had since grown into the principal avenue of a crowded city. Every day, precisely as the Cathedral dock struck three, Peggy came to her window, with a red mitten in her hand and a green barege turban on her head. And here she sat until the clock went six, knitting the mitten, and looking through the small, clean panes at the passing world, which was her daily news paper and her daily gossip; for Peggy never read, and she never spoke, excepting when somebody asked her a question —nor then, it a nod or a shake of the head would possibly answer. Tho clock \v. yet on ilic stroke of three one showery May afternoon, when an emi grant .ship sailed by “to its haven under the hill," and an hour later the passengers went past the window in scattered groups of quaint bewildered men and women. Foremost among them, and quite by himself was a young Welshman, blue-eyed, curly-haired, and lull of resolute life and honest will. It was not many days before he passed again, aud just against Peggy’s window a man with a vast deal ot presence and man ner met him. “Ah, Apdallas! I was looking for you, - ’ he began. “I heard from my brother that you bad arrived, and 1 have the impression you are just tiie man and want to sod.” Then standing, solid aud .sell-assured, with h s gold headed cane and his shining boots, Mr. Snowdoun began to talk - after ibe man ner of men —all around the subject he wished to hit ; till circling closer and closer, like a leaf in an eddy, he brought up at last at the object of his conversation. It appeared then that he wished to go into some kind of iron- works, but, with capital and brains, he had no practical knowledge of the business. It appeared also that young Apdallas, who had no capital had just this desirable knowledge, having worked in iron-mills all his days, and known them thoroughly horn beginning to end. Mr Snowdoun had no need of any lengthy talk to find this out, and he knew perfectly well before he began that the inter view would end itfa union ol Apdallas’s ex* perieiico with his money ; yet Peggy had knit into her seam tieedle, rolled up her mit ten and gone away, ong before lie had tome to the point of taking rtut his prosperous looking memorandum book mid writing an ivereoment for young Apdallas to sign. There fore only the window looked out upon the closing of the interview, that resulted after some months in several hjglt, conical furnaces down on the lake-shore, whose tops came up above the hank and glared all night long with their burning eyes at Peggy’s window. One evening, a whole year alter he first sailed into my story, Apdallas, sitting', upon the wooden carriage-steps under the elm-tree in front of the window, took a letter from his pocket; and as lie opened it a picture fell to the ground—the face of a young girl, rather bold perhaps, but very sensible" and very sweet. The letter that inclosed it was like the face. “My mother is dead now,” it said, “my brother is in irried and needs me no more, and I wpite to ask you il there is any place and work lor me in Amoriea. Your cousin, Cbitrlolte. Chisholm, who is a very good friend of mine, tells mo you have found it to be a country where there is much to do and where every one may work, making themselves a place and a home. So may I give you the trouble to say if 1 would risk any thing in going a strangerfo a strange land ?” This letter, signed “Ursula Fitzgibbon,” was the first incident softer than iron that had fallen into Apdallas’a lifo since he land ed in America; he rend it with a gentle stirring at his heart, and like April in a lilac bough. A week later Peggy, through her window, saw him post a letter in the mail-box across the street. It was directed to “Miss Ursula Fitzgibbon, Carrighal, Wales,” and was not the last ol many that flew on yellow wings from that same letter box across the sea. All the while the light from the blast-fur naces shone brighter and brighter, for ore was plenty and iron was dear. So weeks came in and weeks went out, stretching themselves into months and then years, until, on a mid* summer evening, just as the furnace fires had jhegun to paint Peggy’s poor little window a glowing crimson, turning it into something far more gorgeous than the stained ultar window at the Cathedral, another emigrant ship sailed by, and the red glare was reflected from the window upon the face of a girl who stood upon deck looking off at the city. At the same time Apdallas passed in his best blue suit, going down to the boat-landing ; AUGUST A, GA„ SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 7, 1868. und then by-and-by he came back in a car riage with tho brave, honest face of Ursula Fitzgibhon beside him. Now, Peggy’* window' held itself at such a convenient angle that it looked as many ways as tho wind blows, nil nt once, in any lake country; and among other sights it saw a poajtedroofcd brick cottage, tangled over with trumpet Howers and Michigan roses. And at the door of this house it saw Apdallas und the girl go in. For a little time they were lost to view, but directly somebody lighted the gas in the front parlor, and Peggy, coming ro close her shutters just then, saw between the lace curtains of the long,open window Arthur Apdallas aud Ursula Fitzgibhon kneeling side by side, while the white-haired rector stood before thenl with book and gown. And thus it was Ursula Fitzgibhon found her “work and place and home.” After that Mr. and Mr». Apdallas often walk ed past together of summer evenings, stop ping to sit and talk upon tho carriage steps under Peggy’s elm-tree ; and all the time the hot mouthed furnaces, like wise old alchemists, were tirelessly turning iron ore all into gold tor the fortunate pockets of their proprietors. Until, almost before they new it, the firm of Snowdoun & Apdallas was among the wealthiest of that wealthy city. At last Peggy, at her knitting, began to watch from her window n handsome stone house going up on the margin of the bank that looked down on the lake. A house with gable and dormer and bay aud oval and French windows ; with ull manner of quaint and fanciful architecture, as though it embodied memories ofsomo strange, foreign land. Yet withal, with a look of solid mag nificence that of a certainty embodied solid wealth. Finally it was finished and furnished with unbounded splendor, and then, one day, Mr. and Mrs. Apdallas went between the great stone lions that guarded the carved doorway, and took possession of their new home. Several years have comb and gone since then, anil as Peggy sits to night looking through her window she sees in tho twilight children at play tinder the portico of tho great house opposite, and behind them, in the ststely doorway, she sees Mrs Ursula Apdallas watching them with motherly glad ness, while her husband smiles down upon the handsomest wife in the whole city with satisfied pride and love. And thus for once health and worthiness and happiness arc joined hand in hand. VETERAN WRITERS. For the last century the reading public has been familiar with the writings of a certain class of essayists who, through the columns of newspapers, discuss questions of public and private policy. “Junius” is a very sarcastic old gentle man, who is on the constant watch for the shortcomings of mankind, and when discov ered lie forthwith administers a column or two, which, if ho had any way of compelling mankind to read, would satisfy his vengeance unless it be insatiate. “Pro Bono Publico”, is a nervous old codger who is constantly discovering dangers ahead, and raising liis warning voice for the purpose of mousing the people to a sense of their perils. “Tax Payer” has a small place in tho country and a .sorrel horse. His consuming sorrow is the tact that people who don’t pay taxes themselves have the power of voting away his money. “llistorieus” is a rather lean old tile, who thinks there is nothing worth reading save the Antiquities of the Jews, by Josephus. “Scticx” is a bald headed old gentleman of the old school. Ili.s gritd is caused by the profligacy ol the rising generation. “Vindex” is a retired attorney, and he could enjoy life tolerably well were it not lor the blunders which modern jurists are con stantly committing. “Justice” is an unfortunate old fellow who is always misunderstood aud conse quently greatly wronged. “Publicolo” is a public spirited old man who jrlaus railways over mountains, and makes the country inexhaustibly rich by mining the ores which underlie tho track. “Truth and Justice.” This correspondent, though of vigorous intellect, is unable to find an organ which will burden its columns with his old fashioned ideas. “Vox Populi” is an unselfish humanita rian who, on the eve of an election, demon strates to his own satisfaction that the country is bound to be ruined unless his party pre vails. “Educator’’ has been in trouble about our school system for many years. The new fashioned school books, the now system of teaching, etc., keep the old gentleman in constant trouble. “Agricola” is an old farmer whose mind is torn by subsoil plows and other modern agricultural implements lie thinks we arejiot as happy and contented as we were before the days of so much machinery. „ “E. D. jM.” is an old fossil who resides at Morrow, Ohio. lie is the strategist of the Cincinnati Gazette. lie conducted the late war to a conclusion, and is now preparing to administer upon the presidential effects of A. Johnson. “IL lvetus,” “The Spirit of ’70,” “A Lover of Truth,” and several other literary old bummers, are travelling in Europe. THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. Alabama James T. 13.
