Albano would inquire, as lie seated himself at bistable, with his feet on a morsel of goat-skir placed there for them. “What is it to day, Wilhelm?” And Wilhelm used invariably to place a white dimpled fore-finger against the name of some particular dish on the card, and that was the dish M. Albanc invariably chose. It was not long before Wilhelm found out that M. Albano was, like himself, a Hungarian, and, like himself, an exile.

There was some difference, nevertheless, in their stations in life, for in J^is own dear land M.

Monsieur, 1 shall sadly miss you. Is it Brussels, monsieur, Berlin, or Moscow? You say you have liad en gagements at all these places.” “No, no,” replied M.

Can ■ft king mend a broken heart, even if he could restore my fortunes? Could I gaze without grief on those green-wooded hills and valleys that once were mine? Could I mingle with the good people who dwell there—and who once called me lord—without sadness? No, Wilhelm, no. My homo is near London, tb mo of the refugee, the only city in tin hole world amid the bustle and stir a which an exile may woo forgetfulness. Wilhelm lingered by the table for a few moments. lie was deep in thought. “M. Albanol” he said at last, “to have employment in London has loi^ been with me an ambitious dream—a castle in the air—call it what you will. I hate the garb of servility in which you now see mo. Oh! there are times, monsieur, that I walk my room all night, wild in thought, because I feel I was born for letter things. Yet 1 try to do my duty ~-my humble duty.” “Yes. yes, yes,” said Albano, speaking more briskly than was his wont. “That Is right—do your duty. I trust I do mine, humble though that is. Do not let pride interfere with that duty. Be not self-conscious. Concentrate your thoughts and energies in youi; work, menial though some may call it. Be lieve me, Wilhelm, a halo surrounds the head of that man or woman who does whatever his or her hand findeth to do, in no half-hearted way, but with a \vi a purpose, and an honest pride of act i< i, letlittg—wa“djv that duty is a sacra i thing. Study to be content with ib". state in which Providence has placed you, Wilhelm. Study that—study that.” “But, monsieur, you would then leave ambition out of count.” “No; oh, no! Only let your ambition be subservient to your duty. The march of intellect—the march of the world—is ever, over onward. Better yourself, by nil means, if you can: by so doing you may better the world; but ambitious thoughts or actions must never interfere with your hours of labor. These belong to your present employer, Wilhelm.” “I see, monsieur.” “Well, see and think of it. Meanwhile, here is a pass for the Grand N r con cert. You will see me and my little violin in the second row of the orchestra. You will wait for me, and we will sup together at the Rliondeville.” High over a score of fiddlers at the grand concert that evening, M. Albano’s little violin seemed to ring—seemed, at all events—in Wilhelm’s ears, just as one hears and can listen only to the nightin gale’s voice amidst the babel of bird- voices in the woods in early spring. After the performance, Wilhelm waited for what appeared quite a long time for his friend. All the other musicians had dressed and filed away, but still lie came not. Wilhelm ventured at last to ask one in authority. “Oh. no!” was the reply; “M. Albano has not gone. He is talking to the man ager. The manager wants him to stay on, but he insists on throwing up liis en gagement.” “Strange!” said Wilhelm. “Yes. Y'es. mv little cottage dome ?” So the two parted. NY inter was still holding sway, and snow lay deep all round Paris; but in nine weeks’ time what a change there was! With Paris, however, this short and simple storj r has no longer anything fco do. The scene shifts to a tiny but beautiful cottage in Surrey. It stands on the slope of a gently-rising hill, and is almost buried in pine woods. “Yes, Wilhelm,” M. Albano was say ing as the two sat together in a little tent on the lawn, “this cottage, these gardens, the beautiful country around, do not seem the same since Marie—since my daughter left me. They are not the same, for I am older now. I can not see with the same eyes, hear with the same ears; it seems as if the gloom of the grave were iJready closing around me.” “But Marie—your daughter—may re turn.” “No, that can not be; the pride that caused her to go will prevent her return ing. She will never come back.” “Wilhelm was silent. “A few hasty words—and the words were mine—a few peevish mutterings at the fate that banished me from my na tive land, that had tom from my breast the insignia of title and honor, and com pelled mo—me, a count, to drag out a miserable existence in a foreign country, by aid of my violin. I did not mean to imply that I begrudged the labor that kept her as a lady, but I fear I led her to believe so; and I would have laid down my life next minute to have been able to retract, to unsay my cruel words; out next minute Marie was gone. Gone —yes, gone with tears on her face and mayhap a broken heart, though a proud one. And since then I have sought and obtained engagements in almost every capital in Europe. I have been till now ever on the move, thinking, always thinking, I would find my Marie; for one brief note—the only one I received— told me she was so far independent, and that on her voice alone she would now trust for a livlihood. But I am tired, hopeless, and weary.” 1 *d so indeed he looked. .tk year passed away. The old man ap peared no more in any orchestra. Hope itself had fled from his heart, and lie mourned for his daughter its for one dead. Wilhelm was a frequent* visitor at the cottage. Aided in his ambition by the ?x-count, and possessed of the will to work, the determination to triumph, and ' that mental staying power which often times leads to success without even the aid of genius, the young man conquered all difficulties, and was already on the first steps of the ladder that leads to fame. His employment frequently led him to Italy and to that Rome which of late pears appears to have taken a new lease of glorious life. An event now took place which is com mon enough in the life of most young men: Wilhelm fell in love. But I do not blame him, for all Rome was capti vated by the sweet voice and modest and charming manner of a young singer that had lately been brought out by a great master. Night after night, wherever she sang, Wilhelm was there, listening enthralled. But lie could obtain no introduction. She as so near, and yet so far. Going home late one night from duties that had occupied him for nearly eight- and-forty hours, with little time for sleep, he heard the startling shout of fire. He followed the mob and the rat tling ill-contrived engine down a narrow dark street that, from the showers of sparks and the smoke and heat, seemed on fire from end to end. Wilhelm got close to the burning building, and helped to work the engine. But there was other and braver work for him to tackle. For look! the faces of young people and children frantic with fear appear at an upper window. Who will climb through sparks and smoke up that rickety ladder? Who will volun teer to save them ? Wilhelm will! He springs toward it; up and down, and up and down, and he has saved three. He is scorched and burned, but seems to bear a charmed life. The last he saves, to his surprise, if not joy, is the young singer. While she is borne. away in safety, he faints and falls. It is two days before he. comes to liis senses at his hotel. It would be weeks liefcre he got round. What mattered it: Siu* came daily to see and inquire after his welfare. Ah! it was the old, old story. But he did not tell it then or there. He told the young singer a story of a different kind: of a lovely little cottage among the pine woods of Surrey, ami of an old man who was dying of sorrow because his daugli- Anfi the . j- i ter would never come again ‘s. it is strange.

The next day Marescol replied that he had recommended the Governor ol Chihuahua to see that prompt and full justice tvas administered. O.i July 17th, Consul Brigham stat ed that Cutting was still in prison and that nothing had been done for . iis release. The Secretary says that the imprisonment of this American citizen having thus con tinued a full month without expla nation or release, he (Secretary Bayard), on July tilth, addressed a telegram to Minister Jackson in structing him to demand ot the Mexican government the instant release of Cutting. This was follow ed on July 20, by instructions of the Secretary to Minister Jackson, stat ing the legal position assumed by this Government. Minister Jackson, on July 22d, telegraphed the refusal of the Mexi can government to accede to the telegraphed demands of Secretary Bayard, which was followed by an other telegram, giving a statement of the Mexican reasons. Minister Jackson, on July 26th, telegraphed that he was pushing the case of Cutting. On July 27th, the Secreta ry mailed additional instructions to Mr. Jackson. The Secretary, in his-letter, refers to the claim of the Mexican Minis ter here, based on Mexican laws whereby jurisdiction assumed by Mexico over the United States or any foreign country, and this con tention that under this law the pub lication of libel in Texas was made cognizable in Mexico. This claim of jurisdiction by Mexico is per emptorily and positively disputed by Secretary Bayard, who declared that the United States would not assent to or permit the existence of such extra-territorial force to he given to the Mexican law. Mr. Romero, he says, finally as- ureci him that Cutting would be released in a short time. Convinc ed of the friendly and conciliatory ssirit. influencing the Mexican gov ernment, the Secretary informed iheConsul that, in liis opinion, all questions or conflictng interests be tween t h e two governments can be honorably and satisfactorily adjust 'd. In hi-i report the Secretary says: <v idling the Mexican iaws cited iy N.r.

The people of Georgia have al most lorgot that two amendments to the constitution will be submit ted 10 them for their action at the next State election.

The of his favorite song, ‘ The Dew is on the Blossom.” The mellow voice of; the charging leader was the Col- j ouel’s last remembrance of the; onset. A grape shot tearing through j his right breast hurled him from nis j saddle and he made one of thous ands stretched upon that ‘bloody field. When next his eyes opened they j looked upon the surroundings of a Richmond hospital cot. At the side of the cot sat Mammy, the negress, who had nursed him as a baby, amused him as a child, attended him as a youth and followed him to the battls-field. Learning that the young master and foster child had fallen, Mammy” had followed by the dim light of the lantern, through half the night, the awful track of that terrible charge. Man- gl, d limbs, shattered breaste con torted features and nloodbedabbled locks paled the lantern’s feeble gleam at every step and brought to the cheeks of the negress the pecu liar ashen hue lent by terror to the dusky skin of her race. At last the right heap of tho slain was reached, and Mammy” drew from it the bloody form of her young master. Tenderly she cared for her foster child, and rested not until he was beneath the surgeon’s care. For long months the desper ately wounded soldier lay in Rich mond hospital, devotedly nursed by the old negress. When at last he left his bed he was in no condition to r esume liis place in the service On a furlough he passed a year in Italy, and with the hue of health mice more upon his cheek and the strength of manhood in his arm hastened back to strike a last blow for the Confederacy. Participatin in the closing shocks of the great conflict, he rode in that last effort of desperate courage b(r which Gor don’s cavalry cut their way through the encompassing Federal ranks, Here he received the saber cut, whose grim and lived trace still marks his features. In the cabin of a Virginia mountaineer the Colonel recovered from his second wound and then made his way out of the country. Locating in the Brazilian diamond fields, still attended by the faithful “mammy,” he was for tunate from the first. He soon had a furtune in his possession, and se.ect ing Southern California as his fu ture home, he purchased and stock ed a ranch, and has since led the free and independent life of the plains. “And now,” said the Colonel in conclusion, “would you not. like to -re mammy?” “Most assuredly,” was the reply, and to the Colonel’s call there came forth an aged and 1) nt negress. You see,” said the Colonel, “she will not leave me.” “Not,” said “mammy,” “till the Lord calls.”—Cheyenne Leader. tion. Yours Truly, T. A. Atkinson, L P. Mandevh.ee, 1 C.

Yet that evening 1 President told an Illinois Congressman the other day that he had determined not to renomiDate for any position a person whom the Senate had rejected. He assumed rhai in such cases the Semite had not been goveri rd by personal or political motives, but that its action was ba-etl on good and sufficient reasons, the result of careful in quiry.

Stone, of Kentucky, who takes Os car Turner’s place in the House. The story ot Stone’s terrible wound on the battlefield was told not long go, but the best part of the story was left out. The battle where he st his leg was near Cynthiana, Ky. He was in the Confederate service, and after the battle was lying on the field gasping for water with his leg shot away almost to the hip. A Federal soldier saw him and asked him if he was not thirs ty. He replied that he was, and the Yankee went off and brought back a canteen full of water. He raised the wounded man and gave him a drink, and then in kindness left his own canteen by the side of what he thought to be the dying rebel. Said he: ‘I will leavet his, as you may want to drink again after a while.”- Stone thanked him. As he turned to go away another Un- ionsoidier came up and said: “Hello! my man, is that rebel dead ?” The first Yankee replied he was not, but he thought he was going. The new comer then said: “Stand aside, and I’ll finish him,” and with that he raised his musket. The kind- hearted Yankee stepped in front of him and told him il he shot the reb el he would shoot him. This ended the matter, and the good and the bad Union soldier went away to gether.
