Tit* Cavks of VicKsnuna.—A corret- nondent of tho Boston Traveler writes from Vicksburg: The hundreds of caves in tho sides »r tho hills are still open, and bring to rnind tho accounts wo rend und beard related nf the suffering tlicro. Many, however, have caved in, and in some instances Iho whole sido of tho hill comes down into the street ut the same time. Ono of these caves, nponod, 4t few weeks SffO, was found to OUOtafn the bones of a whole family who had beatl Buflbcatcd there during tho siege. Tho j cunuon have all been remove I, but the ride pits and curlh forts still remain on tho hill tops. The spot whero Grant und l'emberton consulted upon the terms of surrender, which was then surrounded by trees and sbudod by tbe brunches of a lurgo oak, is now in un open field, cultivated by a negro who fought there. Tho marble* monument raised to mark tbe spot was so hacked by relic seekers, that it has been re moved, and u ten-inch Columbind gun reurod in its place, upon which is on- gruved the words : "The site where Gen. U. 8. Grant arranged tho terms of surrender with Lient. Gen. Pemberton.” A Fact.—Courtship is bliss, but mat rimony is blister. Mrs. Stefane’s Dream. It was Monday morning. It wns also 'washing day,’ in a house where tho fum ily coasited of husband and wife nnd five small children, the fatfer of whom were gifted with a perfectly marvelous faculty for "retiding und destroying,” nnd especially for soiling beyond hope of redemption, every clean garment with which their much enduring mother provided them dining the week. Mrs. Blonfiitie, like all other mo liters, was proud of her children, and liked to see them neat nnd cleanly dressed, even be yond the average necessity of her child's simple toilet Consequently her wash ing basket on Monday morning was u slight calculated to strike awe and ter* ror into the soul of nny young maiden on tho biink ot matrimony. She sat idly tapping tlto rod covered washing-book with ivory pencil, whilo Iter eyes rested oil tbe basket ut bur feet, but not with that usual calmly satisfied glance. Something was evidently wrong. NVIiut was it ? 'Mighty-live dollars for the lace pock et handkerchief she carried,' said tho wife of twelve years standing, musing ly ; "und live litindiud and filly for her shaw l; while thut silk dress of hers would positively stand alone. Ah mo! it’is well to be bin ! And 1 might have been Judge Howell's wife myself; for lie asked me to marry him six months beforo bo ever saw her, and was fit to blow his brains out when 1 refused him. At least lot said bo was. Alt me I’ And llion the lady sighed again, nml gave the washing busket a spiteful shove with Iter slippered foot. ‘Mother, I can’t find my shoo !’ ‘Mother, do yon know whore tny blue »ic is V ‘Mother, will you come nml fusion Ibis frock ? It is so tiresome.’ ‘Molhor isn’t break fust most ready ?’ ‘Muz/.cr, mo tics you ’ These exclamations burst upon Iter ear, nt tlto door of tho nursery sudden ly opened, nml allowed, five curly bead ed, tosy cheeked, healthy girls und buys, who looked at her Wondorlngly ns site neither rose nor replied to their request. "Mothor, isn’t breakfast most ready?" eailed out I bo most venturous of (lie little brood, the blue eyed Tommy, who liticl already asked that question once before. The interruption sounded harshly.— Tho mind of tno thoughtful woman was absent from the body at tiiut moment, wandering buck through the rosy paths of tho pant, where a handsome nnd wealthy lover ctimo to woo. And now, in the nresont, she was tho hard worked wife of a poor nnd struggling man ; the mother ol five troublusoino young hu man beings, lor wlioso sake all such beautiful vanities m luce handkerchiefs nnd India shawls, mid silks that ‘would stand alone,’ must lie forever given up Thu contrast was very decided, nml by no menus a plounnnt ono. Bho look ed up, ‘Go away, children, all of jott at onco I’ slio saiil in a harsh voice, ‘break fast isn’t ready yet, nml I’m suro I don’t know when it will be, nnd such a pack of young troubles to look after. Thorp, go down stairs, overy one of you, and don’t speak to inn till I get this washing list made out.’ Looking ut eacli olhor with u mortified mid cruslfullcn uir, the children stole away, ono after tho oilier, and went down to the breakfast room, where the lather sat reading his paper and waiting patiently lor tho morning meal. Presently tho sound of many voices nnd much laughter penetrated the upper room, whore the mother still sat brood ing alone. Hlio listened a mmnont or two, nml then rose from her chair. ‘What a noise they do make when . they are all together!’ she said, fretfully.' 'Ami ob, dear, how diooiiraged and j weary of it do I feel J I will lie down for five minutes, und Ann can take in j breakfast for them nil. If tlioy have, that, they will not miss mo! Howl strangely my bead does feel I Eighty-1 five dollars for one single pocki t-liand-: keichief! It is really too bail that I should be drudging here, day in uml day out, with hardly a decent gown once u year, whilo she--' A strnngu drowsy feeling overcame her, and hushed her trouble anu repin-1 ing together. Her eyelids closed —. Her bead sank back upon tho pillow.-- j Hhe slept or seemed to sleep 1 , * * ' Raising up from that long slumber ut| last, but still fueling strangely heavy, and dull, Mrs. Btcfnnu went down stairs, 1 idly reproaching licrsolt for her deser-1 lion of her husband nnd children at tho broakfust hour. But the breakfast room; was empty, though tho deserted tabic gave ample and sutllcient evidence that her absence had by no moans otTocted 1 tbe np|M)titof of (he party. 81m rung the bell. The Irish servant ontered. ‘Where is your master?' asked Mrs. Stcfunc, feeling strangely hurt that she should have to put such a question to a servant, as to her husband's wherea bout s. ‘Tlto master, ma'am,’ said the good notured Ann, with n broad smile. Bure, ma'am, and In? staid lie’ll bo after taking all the children down tho river, ns it was such u tine day. Tlmy were just wild to go, tho darlings ! 'Down the river 1* gasped Mrs. Stc- fane, feeling os if she could not believe Iter oats. That ‘down the river trip’ bad boon n long looked for nnd engurly discussed pleasure to be shared by tho whole family, ami by Iter ! And they bud gone nml led Iter ! ‘You see, ma’am, you was in such n bountiful slnpe, that master would not have you disturbed,' wont on tbe stupid, but good uutured Ann 'And so he told mo to dreoi the children myself, nnd and I did. And very pretty they look ed, tlto litllc darling/.’ 'Clear tlio breakfast things away!' said Mrs. Stcfano. ‘Yes, ma'am. I left tho table for you, thinking you might be hungry ufter your slnpe. Won't I bring you a cup of c«ff«re, and a ftesh roll or two 1" ‘No, timnU you.’ ‘An egg now, ma’am, or u taste of fried ham. I’ll cook it for you in a minute, ma'uin ’ ‘I want nothing—nothing !’ nnd Mrs Btcfnno fairly run from tba room, for the ready tears wore even then lit her eyes. This then was all they cared for her, she thought, ns she gazed around her own chamber. Atm bad removed the clothes basket during her sl;op, bat the room was littered and untidy, nnd as it was washing day, she could nut call tbe girl from Iter work to attend to it. Still less would she slave there her self, while her truant family wore enjoy ing the fresh river breezes from the deck of a beautiful steamer. The room might go. What did it matter? What did anything matter F And then site sat down again nnd leaned her head on Iter hand, nnd n thought of the lace kerchiefs and tho India shawls, and the magnificent silk dresses oi Judge Howell’s wife, till her heart was full of burning nnd bitter thoughts against those whom slio really loved far hotter than life itself. Going into the parlor idler dinner was over, site still pursued this useless and almost wicked trnin of thought.— Whittier's 'Maud Muller,’ bountifully illustrated was on llio centra table.— Bho took it up with a sentimental as pect that was rutliur ludicrous in a stout 'well to do’ mother of a family like her. "Alt. me ! Tint 1 llit- Jmlgu’s liriili* might lie 1" she rcpcntdD onco or twice ufter tho book dropped Irom Iter bund. "Ho wtilth! dress mo up in silk so fluu. And praise mo mid tousl mu uvor bis wlac." And then she looked down upon her wullworn alpaca dre/s, and sighed again Poor Mrs. Stofuno ! Tho 'Judge’s bride’ was a beautiful girl of eighteen, who had accepted hint eagerly, hi spite of his iron-gray hair nnd fifty years, becauso of Ins wealth nnd position ho could offer. And “the dodge" doted on his bride, ns only a tnuu of that nge is capable of doing I Tbe romance of his youth wns n vanish ed and forgotten romance lo him. And if any one could have shown him Mis. Stcfano, “as slio appeared" on washing day of which I wide, ho would have boon ono of the first to propose that "the woman should be Hoot to a lunatic asylum without any further delay." Hut Mrs. Stcfano knew nothing of all this, nnd sat nnd sighed over his memo ry nnd her one lust cliattco of fortuno 111) tvrilight gave place to dusk. Then, for tbe first time, she roused herself sufficiently from Iter reveries to wonder why her husband nnd cbildren had not returned. 8lio rang tho bell.
