February 1, 1879 5 tf his hat, fashioned a quarter ot a cen tury before, showed long and close acquaintance with sunshine and storm. He was quite old, too, although he stepped quite nimbly up the gravel walk, and tired, for he had tramped many miles under (he broiling heat of that July sun. Withal, there was a look of shrewdness and knowledge ot the world dial seemed to belie nis in digent appearance. •* Ho glanced about him at the well cultivated fields, the comfortable dwel ling, the commodious barnes and the numerous outhouses, and muttered : ‘‘Very well situated* whoever they are. I will stop and rest awhile if they will allow such a ragsling in the house.” And the last thought seemed to af ford him pleasure. He walked up to the front door, which was open ; but the sound ol voices within drew his attention, anti he stopped, with his hand yet raised to rap. “John Hayward, I’m ashamed o! you 1” spoke a harsh, motahe, female voice. “That my son should so forget himself as to sloop to even look at my hired help, much more to make love to her, is ridiculous! shameful! What is she 5 Everbody knows that Harriet Sinclair is nothing but a beggar, at the best! and how do we know that she is even as good as that ?

Instantly Maria’s lace was all sun- | shine. <• “The storm has passed for the pres ent,” thought the little man ; “but there is no knowing how long we shall have fair weather, so I will make the most of it.” Then to John Hayward : “Ijust stopped in to rest a moment and get a bite to eat.” “You are welcome sir,” said John, frankiy. “Hatty, will you get him a lunch ? Or, perhaps you will stay to tea ?” “Thank you, sir; but I will go on to the village, where that lady tells me there is a hotel." Maria shot him a look out of her flashing eyes that call ’d a smile to his face. But John did not see it ; for he was watching Hatty as she flitted here ami there, preparing the lunch for the visitor, Then he and Maria left the kitchen, The man was apparently very’ hun gry, judging from the length ot time required to satisfy himself. Anil all die time he was plying Hatty with questions about herself and her pa rents, til! the poor girl began to think he was crazy. But at length he arose to go ; and with many thanks to Hat ty, and a promise losee her again soon, he took his departure A week passed, and the old man again slocnl at the door oft he Hayward farmhouse. It was quite dark, and he sat down on the stone step, listening to the joyous music and the happy laughter that came from the house. Presently a little figure flitted past him, and he recognized Hatty Sinclair.

But he will not; | so we will harry on to the village, and ; take the train for my” home.” There was much consternation at the Hayward taimhouse the next morning. Mrs. Hayward was really vexed when she learned that Hally had left her for she had ben very faith- ul ; hut withal was a feeling of relief that the ‘ mrl” was out of John’s way. woold not find Hatiy ; and his letters which came regularly, strengthened that belief. Then there came a letter, stating that he would be at home soon, but saying nothing whatever about Hatty; from which they judged that he had failed, and given up the search. The Monday following an elegant carriage, drawn by two thoroughbreds, slopped before the Hayward farmhouse and a servant hurried up to the house. “For Miss Maria Dalton,” said he placing a card in Mrs. Hayward’s hand. Maria was in the parlor in a flutter of excitement. She gave a cry ot joy when she read the name. “James Sinclair, my uncle,” said she proudly. “Mrs. Hayward will you have the kindness to tell the ser vant to show him in.” An elderly gentleman alighted, and walked slowly towards the house. Maria could not wait to see this rich uncle, and she met him at the door “My niece, Maria Dalton !” said the gentleman. “Yes, unde, said Maria leading the way to the parlor. “I can smp but a few moments,” said Mr. Sinclair, after being present ed to Mrs. Hayward. “I have been looking up my connections since my return from India, and, quite fortunate ly, chanced to find another niece. Per haps you may remember her—Hatty Sinclair.” Mrs. Hayward gave a scream, and Maria, to hide her chagrin and vexa tion, covered her face with her hand kerchief. Mr. Sinclair continued : “Hally and her husband are now in the carriage. I will call them.” John Hayward soon appeared with Hatty leaning on his arm ; and it Ma ria spoke the tiuili when she said that Hatty had not even a pretty face to recommend her, then the face must have changed, lor she looked surpass ingly beautiful, as she stood there be side her noble husband. “Mother, 1 have found her,” said John, “and brought her back, but not to stay. She does not like this part of the country, and we have consented to live with Mr. Sinclair. We shall ex pect to see you there quite often.” The poor woman was so much as tonished that she could not utter a word, and Mr. Sinclair look advantage of the silence to call Maria back, for she was slipping out of the room. “One moment more, Maria,*’ said he. “Iain sorry to disappoint you, but when I was here in the summer— by-lhe-way, 1 found that hotel—I saw that you were not a proper person to be intrusted with wealth, so I have concluded to let Hatty have it. I hvae also decided to discontinue the liberal allowance which you have enjoyed, until such time as you shall have learn ed to treat every person, however humble, with becoming respect. That is all.” With a low bow to her -and Mrs. Hayward, he left the room, followed by John and Hatty. “Oh! why didn’t I know this !” ex claimed Maria bursting into tears. Mrs. Hayward did not feel so bad at- U r the first shock was over, lor “John had married rich.** She became a frequent visitor at John’s palatial house, where all, for Jqhn’s sake, gave her a cordial wel come. Mi-ria returned to her own home, ac cepting the change that her own folly had wrought, with a grace that was deserving of praise. Her uncle took pity on her, and allowed her a small annuity. She never married, nor for got that unfortunate summer. Maria Dallon pretended to be great* Iv shocked, and hinted fin various'sub tle ways, thaw nothing better could have been expecleu. John was very much grieved, and came very near being angry with his Minister Washburne in Disgrace. Position oj the administration in relation to the French Republic. The Louisville Courier-Journal of Tuesday has the following special : Washington, September 12.—Min ister Washburpc is in disgrace at the State Department, and he has been informed by Secretary Fish that the manner in which he expressed his sen timents at the formation of the French Republic was highly undiplomatic.— The impression 13 that Mr. Wash burne become entirely too wild, and in his enthusiasm at the formation of the Republic permitted his diplomatic character to be overshadowed by his personal views and feelings. This is distasteful to Mr. Fish, and also to the President, neither of whom had any desire lo be swll in the recognition of the French Republic. They prefer to wait a little longer, to see what new- political features may be developed, for they are not sure that King William will not see fit lo restore Napoleon to the French Republic throne. A hasty recognition of the French Republic migh; place the Uni ted States in a somewhat embarrassing position; and Mr. Washburn, it will be remembered, was exceeding en thusiastic, and made quite a speech to the populace ; and Mr. Fish wants it understood that he did not speak authoritatively, ard that his utterances must not be taken as the well-consid erate views of his Government. Mr. Washburn, it is well known, is a special pet of the President, and the latter did not like to bear down upon him too hard, but Secretary Fish persuaded him that Washburne’s utter ances required to be corrected, if not absolutely contradicted. In fact, it has transpired that no decided stand was taken by our Government on the subject of the war, but. that the dispatches to Ministor Bancroft and other foreign Ministers were of a very equivocal nature. The Superstition of Sailors.— Some months since, a *”orthy Connec ticut clergyman, having been abroad on a “bionchital” tour took passage home in the brig , M New York. The voyage was an exceedingly rough one—it was nothing but storms, —and the sailors, knowing that there was a clergy man on board, declared that ‘the old parson’ was the cause of them all. One night, during a terrible hurri cane, as ihe good man lay in his berth, he overheard the chief mate say to the captain : “The men work well, but they swear that the tempest is raised because that old parson is on board.’ “Well,” replied the captain, with a tremendous oath, ‘I begin to believe it myself.

This crime she confessed at the time of her trial, it being unknown previously. It would take up too much space to tell the : many crimes which have been committed by this woman, and we pass lo tire last, and the one for which she has been con demned—which was the robbery of four thousand dollars in gold and the jewelry of Sr. Acost, on the night of the 15th of August last. This family had recently moved in the house, and Feliciana was employed as a domestic. Public curiosity was much excited to see Feliciana, and the court room and the streets were crowded with people. She was cool and collected, and declined lo sit down when brought before the court but remained stand ing without perceptible emotion, ex cept the occasional quiver of the lips in answer to a question. Her voice was low and perfectly' intelligible.— Upon being asked if she knew with what offence she was charged she re plied : “I suppose for that on the table.” On the table was the stolen jewelry. On being asked how she came by it, she replied that Fiores had given it to her. “With, what object did he give it to you?” was asked.— She answered that she might keep silent as to various crimes which she knew had been committed by him. The Court sentenced her to die, and she listened to the sentence without the slightest emotion. and John going to be married There was quite a pause man al the door grew impatient.

John knew by the descrip tion that lie was the same who called at the farm. “Thank God that she has found even so humble a friend as he !”— murmured John.

For this reason a royal commis sion is out of the question, but the Convocation of Canterbury has resolv ed to undertake the work, and ask the aid of all religious denominations throughout the English seaking world— The Dean ot Canterbury wish lo in clude the Jews also, so far as the Old Testament is concerned. Therefore, every one who has an amendment to propose should send it to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, post paid. The present version was a long lime in pre paration, and after it was published it was a full half century before it came into general use. A new version might take longer, considering the violent posillion of men,like Ford Shaftesbury, to any change. It i» said that an ad equate revision would on an average change one word in every verse of the New Testament ; and many whole took him away on his search. Mrs. Hayward was than ever when she more incensed received John’s note. I declare ! he shall never have a cent of the property if I can help it ! she exclaimed. “The great simple— ton 1” Maria Dalton was considerably alarmed, for, it learned what a false hood she had tald, there would be ho more hope.

He knew not what lo do, he rolled over on this side, then on that. At last, a sudden idea struck him, and he rose from his berth and said : *1 will even do as Jonah did—I will go tip on deck, and tell these misguided men that they may throw me into the sea, if by so doing they believe that their lives and their owners’ property can be saved.—But,’ he added, with a sigh, ‘1 fear me, there be no whales hereabouts.’ The good parson 'dressed hmiself, and made his way, as best he could, to the cabin gangway, the brig-rocking and pitching at a furious rate, After many repeated attempt she reached the deck.
