Although not folly understanding, then, their duptli of cruel- ' , they sank Into her young heart.— _hnrles Austiuhad cast forth seeds tlio fruits of which lie pleuteously reaped ill after years. Thu girls gathered around tlio beautiful child, j “Don’theft’Ightonod, Nelli” “You are a gooso, Neill I’d give a dozen kisses for that gold liiccel” were the exclamations that filled nor curs. “But Noll is made of dificront stuff from She’s a llttlo lady—pretty Noll(— y NolN" chuckled a ragged little chin. The youth who lnul defended her from tlio insult still lingered near, Ho was about eighteen; nnd, alter tho ardor of his feelings had pnssed off, ho was struck with tho not uncommon ombarrnssniont found in the mnunor of thoso of his ago. Tho crowd moved off, and then, approaching her, ho said,-in a voice sullloiently loud to hb heard by the ono or two still loitering ttenr: “Do not coma to this plnco again, llttlo girl. You cannot battle with thu rudeness you will often find here. Good-by!” Ho would have liked to lmvo said more; to have inquired her name and homo; blit ho feared to subject Iter to Buspluion or rid icule. So ho moved ofl'nud went liis way, and slip hors. But her Uttlo head was often turned hack to gozo on him. "So good! so brnvol” site frequently murmured, as slio drew her scarlet cloak .round her frail fornt, shiver ing both with cold nnd ngitstion. Frequently; in tho months after, tho youth visited tlio depot, Ho often thought of tlio llttlo ornugo girl, nnd ifclt Interested concerning her; hut ho never saw thochUd npiin, Tlio most fnsldouahlo circle of tlio elite of P wore discussing tho murits of Etc- nnoro Mordaunt, tlio grnnd-dauglitcr of old Mark Mordaunt, who had tlmtscnsSn shono forth so bright and enchanting in her fresh young beauty. Sho immediate ly became tho "bright particular star” of that brilliant firmament. Sho had long been the idol of hor grand father's heart—a heart which, until Ele- nnoro knocked nt and gained an entrance there, was hard, cold, and unforgiving.— He wns a rich man; fow more so. For ten years holind been absent fromhisliomo and country, travelling with tlio orphan child of Ills only son; nud then, after all thosayenrs, he had returned and settled down onco more amid Ills old associates and friends. Tho latter lie had few of, for tho people long remembered how harsh lie had boon; how relentless, when twenty and more years boforo, young Mark, Ills only child, chose, dcsplto all his futhers entreaties and threats, to consult his own heart in the choice of a wife, and so mar ried Elcattore’s mother, a beautiful, gentle girl, instend of tho proud heiress his father wished. Tlio disappointed man discarded his son, andiicversawhiniafter,thouphEleauorc’8 mother often appealed to 1dm during tho month of Illness precoding her husband's death; after which, sho went off witli hey babe, and never troubled the uunaluial man again. * iu« lip.

But it seems negrophollsm, like the mortis m ulticau (is fever, must noods run its course. It has now culminated. Tho day is not livr distant when tlio wliolo country will look hack with wondurment at its Infatu ation, and hasten quickly nnd effectively to retraeo Its stops. In (lie meantime wo must lmvo patience, and do tho best wo can uuder Improved prospects. You will SCO that Democrats and Con servatives In Congress nre bottoming more Uvoly and Independent than when (a short tiinongo) they wore under the dally ap prehension el expulsion, or. worse. Their conduct to-dny lets been unexceptionable. Eet them hereafter: hold up thoir heads mnnfiilly. The throats of Morton and Sumner, and Butlerand Hoar lmvo become vnpor indeed. Such tnon are no longer tlio ltobc8picrrcs, thoDantons nnd Marais of America. They are foroycr, from tills moment, shorn of thoir strength for fur ther mischief. Tlmt's the lUpil, “A spirited Minnesota girl dismissed hor lover mi learnhijithot.hu gave hor fa ther a drluk of whiskey.” That’s tlio kind. If all tlio girls in tlio lnnd would go and do •likewise, our country would ho cursed with fewer young men, who, by time. Just ns you ohooso t a.e,,|uStnSV( .. “Now.

Ho is dying almost for hor—sco, how no' looks at Itcrl” As sho camo 'forward, a vision of beau ty and grace, Ilai Worth's eyes were riv eted nut on hor; hut tlio man on wlioso arm sho loaned. “Anttral Where , have I scon, him be fore? Ills face is very familiar, ’’said Worth to lus friend. “Not likely you lmvo ever met. Ho 1ms boon iu Germany for tell years past,” an swered ids friond. An hour afterward, Harry Wortli was beside Elcnnnrc, Never had sho been so lovely. Austin ground, his teeth in rage ns tlio hours flew by, and Worth still lin gered by her side. “Another victim,” wldspcrcd one.— 'I’erlmtis not, site nmy he caught this limb; Worth is worth a dozen of tha fol lows who lmvo been dangling round hor,” answered another. “ When will you have morcy, Elcnnore?

Hint ho was bowildcred. Wlmt could she mean? Wns it lovo for him—or wlmt? The birthniglit party was tho most bril liant of thesenson. Hundreds were there in all tlmpiOst elegant nnd ludicrous char acters—among them Henry Wortli. It wns not so hard n matter to got .him into gay scenes as formerly. Ho has gone the wav of llm rest. Eleanorc, beautifully dressed ns (Rebec ca, tlm Jewess, received bur guests un masked.

It is witli- in Urn power of overy woman, particularly drinking usages of society, if she only si wills it; and slio Is not truu to lmr own am host interests of her sex nnd race if she docs not wield that Influence. It is a ques tion involving tlio happiness of millions, and no lmlf-wiiy measures will itlcet tlm case. Prompt, doelded, oimrgelio’aelion is called for. We recommend tho action of tho Minnesota girl.

Nail Talc of a Npoctinir Marts', A story comes from Bangor of tlm death, In the Main wilderness, of four out of five persons, with thoir two horses, who were on n hunting nnd fishing oxcurslou. Tlm solo survivor, who Is a Frenchman, says that tlm pnrty for tho first forthlght Had good luck and rare sport; then ono of thorn wns taken with diptlierin, and being Hlty miles from any medical assistance, died within a fow hours. Witliia tlirco days threo more perished of tlm sumo disenso, nnd tlm remaining ono wns seized with it. He lay in a stupor so long that wlmn ho re covered tlio horses had died of fmnhm, and llm wolves had partly dovuurod tlm corps es of his companions, which Imd been hur led in tho show ohtsidc tho camp for pre servation. After untold sullering ho reach ed an Indian camp, and later canto to tlm abode of white peoplo. girl camo along wrapped in an old scarlet cloak sho Imd drawn closely ovor her bond, Forth hut still’discovcring a quantity of short, clustering black curls—site carried a bas ket filled witli oranges, which slio dispen sed among tho company. “Oranges, sir—plcnso buy same oran ges?” she said, approaching Charles Aus tin. Sim placed ono lii his hand, and gnz- cd an instant only on his bowildcred face. “Great Heaven! what can this mean?” He gazed after hor ns sho flitted away, Sho stopped again before Hoary Woi and repented lmr cry. There thoy stood—tlm threo! They Imd mot again, ns ton years before. And again, tho two, no longer youths, hut men were gazing angrily at each othor. AH was plaln.cnough to both then. Sho pnss ed an oynngoto Henry Worth. Austin clinched his fingers tightly on his, wlmn It oponed, and to his suprleo ho saw a neatly folded, tiny noto. Ho moved away (Yom tlio crowd, onto;od tho library and rend: “Now, ns then, ton years ago, I fear you. Recall your words, and you canhot Wonder! Nell, tho Llttlo Orango Girl.” In tho conservatory, away from tho oyes of all, llonry Worth read tho Uttlo slip his orange contained; "Will you protool me—note ns then'/ will trust j’ou. Nell," That morning Henry Worth was happy, Mr. Mordaunt Imd given Elcanoro the boon she craved—Ids blessing on her love. And Henry Worth knew how It wns tlmt after that notablo day in the depot, slm went there no more. Her mother died soon after. Among her things, Elcanoro runt refreshment, in the Odth year of his age. Ilg camo “to his grave In a full age, like a shock of com coineth in iu his season.” Tlm Mo.vue parental! Is strikingly cm- Dramatical of his cvonlfnl life—check ered with good nnd evil. Ho passed through tlio three steps symbolized on (lie Master’s Carpel, youth, manhood and old ago, A3 becomes tlm Christian Mason. In .youth, lm was industrious in tlio nllaln- mcul or usefld knowledge; in manhood, lio was zealous iu thu application of that knowledge to tlio discharge of his respec tive duties to God, his neighbor ami htm- Bolf; and iu old age lm oujoyod tlm lmppy rclleutlons consequent upon a well spent life, and digl in the hopo of a glorious im- morlnllty. . Our disparted companion was a faithful workman, faithfully following tho doslgns left oil tlio Spiritual Trcstlcboanl by tho Master Builder. Hu attained • to tho truo philosophy of Masonry. Ho believed that tho grand design of tho symbols and cere monies of tlio ordor, is to Impress upon tlm hearts and consciences of men thoso doctrines which essentially concern limit’ temporal and otornal destinies. Ho be hoved tlmt tho moral machinery of tho mystic order add Its hoautlful operations constitute it tho hand-maid of tho Chris tian religion, to tho teaching jtndbxompli- ficatlon of which lie had dovoted his life. In his Itniids tho working tools of tlm croft subserved tlm nohto purposes of thu sci ence of speculative Masonry. In Ills di vision of tlm day, according to tlm (loeufi/- fonr-indi gago, tlm full lime was allotted ‘to tho servleo of God atul a distressed worthy brotlwr.” 'Under tlio application of tho common r/.tro!, in a moral sense, Ills character became tlm beautifully polulml ashler. And wo Uore record our hearty tes timony that oitr deceased companion walked uprightly in his several stations boforo God and man, squaring his actions by tho spurn nl virtue, ovor rcmemberln; tlmt lie was traveling upon the level of thno, to tlmt undiscovered country from wlioso bonus no traveller over returns. 1 ” To his chtiBtlnn oyo our nlcgorlcal rites and coro- monics sublimely evolved tho cardinal ele ments of dlvino truth. Ho viewed our in stitutlouln tholight- of Its first great light, tlm Holy llible—and recognized hi tho or dor ono of tlm outward aids of tlm truth, To him, tha lamb-skin, wns not only an emblem of Innocence, but nil emblem' of suffering Innocence—It romlndod him of : in,ll. of Wj’Uievillc, Yu., Indent named Mine's, in Unit town, a week or two ago, wns ad mitted tt) bail by tlm County Court, be fore which lio was examined, in the Mini of e*-10,000.

Tlio Oldest Rcllti of lliiinniilts-, Tlm Now York Medical Record says:— “Tlm eldest 1 .roue of humanity extant is the skcloton of one of theca flier Pharaohs, encased in one of its original burial rohos, and wonderfully perfect considering its ago. which was deposited eighteen or twen- ty.mouths ago in tlm British Museum, anil is justly considered tlm most vnhinblo of its'ni’chmlogical treasures.
