She could sco tho old garden, with Its winding borders and bool retreats, and catch the sweet odor of tho pinks, nnd tho drowsy murmur of the heos j nnd tlioro was tho lvoodhiiic-arbor, beneath which she and Barry had sat so often togeth er. Bow wall she remembered one avening above all otliors—an evening Inlloynl Juno—the nlr licavy With spi cy odors, nnd a foil moon pouring down its glorifying light upon tho snowy billows of orchard bloom, nnd the long hedges of crimson roses, weighed down by their own intense perfume. On that evening she had lis tened to tho story that has been so of ten repeated, but which never grows old. ‘{Maud, my darling, I love you —will you bo uiy.wifo?” She recalled tho very words, she seemed to hear his dear voice, and see his tender eyes.— The engagement ring was still upon her finger, just as lie put it there that night, and beside it another, even yet more saered, her wedding-ring. And thi? stormy, desolate night was tho anniversary. Six years ago, and the old homestead in Ohio had rung with music nnd revelry., , Every win dow blnzed with light, and every broad hearthstono glowed witli flaming logs. For on that night, robed in white, and adorned with blossoms as spotless and sweet as her own virgin heart, Maud, sole daughter of house and heart, and hello wherover sho went, became brido. Bidding farewell to tho old home, nnd tho old friends in Ohio, Maud went forth with her husband, thenceforth nnd for ever, to bo the light of his home In the neighborhood of New York. Ono year, one short, sweet happy year, that wont by like some rare, rich melody, without a single note of dis cord to brenlc its divine perfection, and then tho trouble came. Tho bare re membrance of it blanched the wife’s cheeks, and made her breath coma in quick, pninful gasps. At the close of that short, linppy year of her wedded life, her husband received information concerning the.illness of ail only broth cr residing in California. Ho was dy ing of a slow, but sure disease, nnd wished to see his,brother's faeo once more. Harry Merlin did not hesitate an instant; tho path of duty was plain —he must go. Maud'entreated to he permitted to nccompany. him; but lie was inexorable. Tlio risks and hard ships wero too great. Loft alone, Mand was not tho wotainn to give, way to despondency; it was her nature nlways to keep her faeo to tho sun. Sho kept herself busy with tlio duties of her household, and at last tho dreary days went by, and ti dings, from Harry came, no was safe at ids journey’s end, but Ills brother was dead, leaving Harry, however, tile inheritor of a considerable fortune.— Just ns soon as his business-matters could he arranged, Harry wrote, lie would start for home. Soon after a second post cninc, bringing intelligence that Harry,, la company with a party of brother-travelers, had set out, tak- Ing the overland route. Mand counted tlio days with throb bing Impatience, the parting had been so long; sho so pinod to see his dear face, nnd, hear ids voice once more.— Sho worked from morn till night, fill ing tlio rooms with little ornaments, and getting up little surprises against his return. Sho cultivated the flowers ho loved, olid sang tlio ballads ho ad mired ; never did woman count the passing momeuts with such lbviug ex pectation. At last the day came.— She liad received ho furtlior intelli gence, but she felt sure tliat ho would come. The evening was in spring, ge nial and balmy, their little homo a wil derness of blossoms. She prepared a banquet with her own hands; sho adorned tlio rooms with tho flowers ho loved; and oven laid out his dressing gown and slippers. Then she went to tier chamber, and pat on tlio dress ho likod to see her woar—a mauve, silk, with dainty laces at tbo throat and wrists, and jet nnd gold ornaments ; her flossy, brown hair hold bnck by sprays of heliotrope nnd sweet verbe na. Surveying herself in the mirror, she smiled nnd blushed, remembering his words when sho had first worn the dress. “ Oil, Maud I you aro so beautiful, always wear this dress, darling, when you wish to plcnso me.’’ The May sun sank lower,and lower, mid at last went down, leaving tlio earth wrapt in the dusky mists of twi light. Maudbegan to grow impatient. She lit the lamps in tho parlor, and then went out to the porch to wait. He surely would come; he would not dis appoint her 1 The golden tints of day faded : like tlio colors of a dream; the stars came out one by one in tlio hazy luster-of tlie sky; and then the mooil — - — »"4 arose, coming up grandly abovo the iracUco in Chcrokco Circuit nnd D. S. Din- nurn | 0 steeps- Still he had not come, janO-ly aurt tho ppor .wifo’fl heart began to grow sick with hope deferred. An- other hour, arid then, above the mur- morons music of the night, sho heard a sharp stop upon the gravel, and start ed to her feet, ilhslied and breathless ; but the next instant she fell back pale with-dlsoppointmolit, for tlio step was not his—sho knew that long before tho person came in sight. . He advanced toward the porch where sho sat with a slow, uncertain step; observing which and recognizing him as ono of her' love neighbors, sho advanced to meet him. “ Mr. Rutherford, is it you ? I nm, looking for my husband. Wbat do you think can detain him Tho gantleman stood still, Ids faeo full of silbnt, unspcaknhlo pity. Some thing. in its expression caught her quick eyes, and sho sprang forward and grnspod Ids nrm. “ Mr. Ruthorford, you tiring mo tidings? Spoak; don’t keep mo In suspense!’’ Still the gontloman was silent. “ Oh, sir 1’’ sho entreated, “don't trifle with my fooling.*. Do you know anything concerning my lins- huiul ? if you do, for moroy’s sake, speak out!” “Madam, I have, hoard—that is, there is had news,’’ lie began, his voice husky and broken. Her face grew white as death; but her eyes wero clear and calm, ami lior hand Blrong as she grasped his arm. “Sir, if you pity mo, toll mo tho worst atonoo; I can hear it.” “ Well, madam, your liusbnml ar.d Ids party liavo boon waylaid and mnr- derod by tho Indians. “ All ? Did nono escape ” “Not olio!” Sho turned' sharply, leaving him without a word ; and ho saw hor enter tlio house, and close the door after her —and that was tho end. Ho would never come back any more, no matter how patleijtly sho might wait and watch! Ho would never know that lie had a son—nover look upon the little chubby face, with Its bold, blue eyes and sunny curls, so like Ids own I From henceforth her heart and homo wore desolate. And this was the anniversary of her wedding-day. Six years ago, and she wap a happy liride. Five years Blie had been a heart-broken widow. Her boy slept in his little lied, and she sat tlicro thinking, thinking and gazing, out at the low leaden sky, and tlio wind tossed trees. The night was closing in rapidly—a night of storm and darkness. Tho rain oamo down in groat shoots; and tlio wild, wailing winds rushed round tho gabies, and went shrieking over the hills liko hu man souls in agony. Hor heart ached with a desolation that seemed almost insupportable. Life was so hard; yet, for tlio hoy’s sake, sho must endure nnd live on. Sho looked down at her snhio gar ments with hot, blinding tears. Six years ago, and she was rolled in gems and blossoms. His face, his very voice, seemed to come hack to her; and she fancied that his spirit must bo near her. No matter how high above her, how happy? she knew that lie loved her still, and ills glorified spir it may have left its homo of bliss to koqn with hor that saered anniversary. The fancy consoled her hoyond*cxprcs- slon. Sho glanced oyar..at the sleep ing hoy, with n <tim hope that his fath er ioved nnd watched over him. Then a sudden impulse shot across her mind; sho would not keep tlio anniversary of her wedding-day in hor garments of widowhood ; she would put on the robe lie loved. If he knew aught of her poor, sad life, ho should see how Bn- ercdly sho remembered and observed his simplest wishes. Stealing to her chamber, sho took out the mauve Silk, ami the dainty la ces, growing yellow aud time-worn, nnd tho pretty jqt and gold ornameuts, and arrayed herself as in days gone hy; and the old bloom came hack: to her cheeks, and tiie brightness to her oyes; aud she seemed to drop her years and her widowhood, and to spring out afresh into the rare beauty of her early maidenhood. Tims nr- rnyed, she went down softly, and seat ed liereelf heforo tho blazing (ire, her faeo tearful nnd expectant. If his soul wore near—nnd sho clung to the ‘nope that it was, as she clung to ilfo—he should see how tenderly she remember ed him. Tho anniversary night wore on, wild and dark with storm; aud still the poor wife, Half dazed hy her terrible sor row, sat hj' her lonely hearth-stone, robed in her festive garments. At last there enrao a step without—a sharp, impatient step on the gravel; but she did not hoar it. A weary, travel-worn man, bronzed by exposure, nnd pale with long endured grief, ;;«nmp up to tho front entrance, and paused be neath the low window. Through tlio parted, curtains sliono tlio ruddy fire light, revealing, the warm, attractive room—the old, familiar room, with his lint npon the wall, nnd ids hooks and meerschaum on tho mantle, unmoved ns lie had left them—revealed- the dear, sweet face, wet with tenrs, nnd tho dress ho loved in happy days, that seemed too far back to the poor wan derer to be real. Was it all a dream? Was that the wife from whom lie had so long been parted, whoso face Imd been present with him through nil his lonely hours of pel’ll and imprisonment? Was sho waiting nnd watching, and keeping ids home bright for his return? Ho left the window, stole softly to the porch, and’approached the door.— Bo'raised llie lnteh: it opened; and ho stood upon the threshold; Intent, upon her own mnsings, her own sweet. memories, nnd sad reflec tions, Maud; heard no sound. Her heart was, far back with her .Husband she had loved so well. Tlio old dress had revived, old associations, nnd his very presence seemed around and about hot. She looked np with clasped hands and streaming eyes. “ Oil, Harry,1 oh, ; my husband I" sho murmured; “ if you know how I lovp. you—how I mourn your loss, surely your soul might speak to mine, and tell mo that you are near mo I” “ Maud, ray wife, my darling 1” She started to hor feet, witli a w.on- dering, weary, changed from tlio man he had been, hut tbo wife recognized him in an instant. For a moment, a solemn awe filled her eyes, nnd her li08itated ar.d trembled in the preseneq of n spirit from tlm other world; but tho noxt instant sho hold him in tier arms witli a wild cry. " Oil, Harry, ,my husband, you aro not dead; you linvo como bnok to mol! 1 His passionate hfsses on her face, his strong arms and throbbing heart, an- swured her ns lip words could have done. Ho had como hack to ,hgr from impri80ninont amid tlio wild westorn mountains,‘from purilp nud dangers, and doatli itself. For n Ilttlo while after plio Imd Heard his story, and fully assured herself that lie was really flesh and blood, and not a spirit, ns sho had first helloved him, she lay quietly woeping on his bosom; then she arose, with n solemn tondcrncss in hor eyes; and lending him up-stairs to tlio bedroom, drew aside the curtains of tlio couch, reveal ing tho little face, flushed and dimpled, in slumber, nnd tlio small, chubby flats fast eilnohcd togctlicr. Harry fllorlln looked on without a word; then, bending down ho kissed the little sleeper with a Joy and thank fulness in ills soul too deep for utter ance; And on this stormy night, after wea ry years of imprisonment amid bar barous hordes—after having endured trials nnd hardships, and almost death itself, this was how Harry Morlin came iiotbbl Would t wero with tlmo ororjr Jay «nJ hour, Which now I paiaio nadljr far from theo j Would that my form, poaaoaaod tlio maglo powo To wander wboro my willing heart would ho: What’ero thy lot hy land or by sea— Would I woro with tlmo eternally.

It refused to entertain a resolution balling for an investigation into the enormous deficiencies in tlio United States Treasury; The existence of the Radical party depends upon tlio ability of its leaders to avoid an inquiry into its villainous acts.
