“ Now, Clmrlie, you'll bo Bure to re
member.”
“To remember wlmt?” said Mr.
Meredith, with a hopeless expression
of insanity on his countenance. Kate
Meredith dropped botli hands de.
Bpairingly at her sides.
“ Charles I” sho exclaimed, “you
don’t mean to say you have forgotten
already ?''
“ My dear, said Mr. Merodith, funi-
bling in tho doptli of his overcoat
pocket for a missing glove, “I haven’t
forgotten, hut I don’t exactly remem
ber."
“The oyslors,” suggested his wife.
“Oh, yes, tho oysters,” said Mere
dith.
And the two ounces of double ze
phyr.”
“Exactly.”
“And tho depot hack to ire waiting
at two o’clock for your cousin from
Philadelphia.”
Mr. Meredith shipped his hands on
tho table. “ Sho is coming to-day, I
declare to goodness,” ho ejaculated
“And a dozen Havana oranges for
desert, and two pounds of white
grapes, and some of those delicious
little Naplos biscuit- -oh, and let thorn
send up a girl from St. Clair’s.”
"A which?”
"A girl, you goose? For general
housowork. Phobe went home this
morning with faco ache, and I can’t
be left alone and company coming '
nnd all. Mind she’s a good cook and
understands waiting at tables.”
And Mr. Meredith rushed off to
catch the 9:30 express, with kaleido
scopic confusion of zephyr wool, do-
pot hacks, oysters and servant maids
careering through his brain, whicn
boded ill for Mrs. Meredith's domes
tic plans.
While that lady, clasping boll,
hands over her head in a sort of trag
ic despair, rushed down into tho
kitchen where a very good looking
young man of two or threo nnd twen
ty was on Ids knees in front of a
range, trying to coax a most unwil
ling fire to bum.
-■ Well ?” said he.
“Tom,” cried she, hysterically
can you make a lobster salad I”
“ Like a book,” said Tom.
“And coffee?”
•' I learned in Paris.”
“ Good. And I can make butter
milk biscuit—and between us we can
get up a decent lunch for n young In
ly from Philadelphia. As for din
ner—”
Well?” ngnin remarked the
young man with the soot bespangled
nose.
Providence must provide,” sighed
the matron.
There’s nn old chintz-colored roos
ter in the barnyard. If I could catch
him I’d have a chicken stow."
“ Tom, did you ever make a chick
en stow ”
“ No.”
“Then you don't know what you are
talking about,” said tho lady with
some asperity.
Yes I da, too. Onions, potatoes,
celery, pearl barley, with a pinch of
salt—”
‘Nonsense I" interrupted Mrs. Mer
edith. “Do pick that lubstcr out of
i|s shell and leave off romancing.—
You are a deal latter at poetry and
newspajicr sketches than you are in
tlie kitchen; though, to be sure," with
twinge of conscience, “ goodness
knows what I should do without you
just at this particular emergency
without you, you dear old darling.”
Tlie lobster was only half picked
out of the shell, tlie buttermilk bis
cuits were still tmmixed, nnd Mrs.
Meredith, with a pocket-handkerchief
tied around her pretty brown hair,
was .lusting the little drawing room,
when there came a ring at tho door
bell. She put tlie perturbed head
out of the window in a most uncere
monious manner. “ Who is there ?”
she demanded in a high contralto.
Docs Mrs. Meredith live here?”
retorted a woman’s voice. And nt
the same moment the young matron
caught sight of n nent black leather
bag, a black alpaca dress and a shawl
of the plainest Highland plaid.
It’s the new girl, thank Provi
dence!” said Mrs. Meredith, as she
ran down stirs, thanking honest
Charlie in her heart for his unexpect
ed promptitude.
Come in,” said she, opening tho
door wide, “I am so glad that you are
punctual, my good girl. From St.
Clair’s Intelligence Bureau, I sup
pose. No, don’t tako off your things
up here; the servant’s room is down
stairs; you may as well come directly
down to the kitchen.”
She led tho way down, followed by
tho now girl, whoso countenance bore
a rather hcwildorcd expression
“What is your name?” sho asked,
patronizingly.
"My name? Oh, it’s Martha,” re
plied tho stranger in confusion.
“Martha ?” critically repeatod Mrs.
Meredith. “What an ugly name !
think I shall call you I’attie. Hnve
you good references ?’’
“I—I believo so.”
“I think,” said Mrs. Meredith, sur
veying her from top to too, “you are
a little over-dressed for your situa
tion; hut of course you have plainer
clothes.”
. Tho stranger lifted a pair of bluo
eyes to tho tall form girded with a
towel who was vigorously wrestling
with tlie claws of a stupendous lob
ster nt the tnblo beyond.
“Do you keep a man cook ?” asked
the girl.
Mrs. Mereditli drew liersolf up.—
“Certainly nut. This is my brother,
Mr. Selwyn, who is kindly assisting
me to mako a salad.”
“But he is not doing it right. He
will never get the moat out of the
shell in that way. Lot mo show you,
Mr. Selwyn."
And with deft fingers she loosened
the whito fibre from the shell in a
manner that made Mr. Selwyn cry
bravo.!”
“And now, Puttie, I will show you
where things are, nnd lcavo yon to
get up as nico a lunch as you can, for
at 2:30 we are expecting my hus
band's cousin from Philadelphia. I
want everything in perfect order.”
“I will finish that salad,” said Tom,
who had secretly been watching tlie
pretty face nnd trim figure of the new
domestic, “now that I have com
inonced it. But you need not look
|>ortorbcd, Pnttio, if that is your
name. I will be careful not to get in
your way. And you ask my sister if
not a handy sort of fellow
“ But you did not forget," remon
strated Mrs. Meredith. “ You sent
her. She is in tho kitchen now.”
Mr. Meredith started. “ I hnve
sent no one! Nevor thought of tho
girl from that moment to this. I give
you my word nnd honor."
“Thon who did send for her?’
ejaculated his wife, slowly.
“ Bing the bell. Let us have her
up here. Who knows but she is ouo
nt those confidence women, with nn
oyo to the forks nud spoons?’’
As ,io spoke he jorkotl tho bell
cord with some energy. Ill n minute
or so, tho new girl enmo up, curtsey
ing-
Mr. Meredith uttered nu cxclama-
tio of amazement.
" Why, it is Martha Merodith!"
■shouted lie. “ It is my cousin from
Philadelphia.”
And he clasped her in his arms
with a shower of kisses that made
honest Tom’s hair stnud on cud.
I wish she was my cousin from
Philadelphia," ho uttered in a stage
whisper aside. Kate turned os scar
let ns n pepper pod.
Oh, good gracious I" sho erioil,
clasping bur little hands, uurvously,
and I took her for a cook."
“ And I am a cook wheti occasion
requires, cousin Kate," said pretty
Martha Meredith, making hur peace
with a kiss. “ Don’t be voxed at me
for humoring tho joko; indeed I could
uot help it. And I will show you bow
to make meringues, glaces, aud the
Neapolitan, to-morrow."

amazement.
But I tell you sho is not a com

The lunch came up at 2:30 in per

delphia arrived; no hack relied up

“ Hmv provoking," said Kate.—
Miss Meredith must hnve missed
some connecting train. Charlie will
lie so vexed. But, however, I de net
so much mind company coming in
at any time, now that I Imve got an
excellent girl."
The dinner of delicately roasted
quail, and rabbit fricassee, with a des
sert of custard and jelly, was duly
served nt precisely seven o’clock, at
which hour Mr, Meredith ismuccd in,
hot and lliiah with the haste lie had
made,
“ Whore is she?"
Where is who?" cried Kate.
“My cousin from Philadelphia.”
“ Not come.”
“No?”
Mr. Meredith drew a sigh of Min

Then, after all, it is not so very
unlucky,” said lie.
“ What is it not so very unlucky ?

yourself altogether in a riddle.”

pcricncc of a midsummer storm ut
enured me to l.iok with apprehension
at tile lmv Hull,si clouds, and shiver
with dread at tho sound of tlie rising
gale that came moaning iu from the
distant ocean. Wo had closely pur
sued a storm all the way down the
Central, from Eatoiiton, and now "the
probabilities" indicated we would soon
meet it face to face where we would
least enjoy the encounter, for not on
ly descends nu the Atlantic the gigan
tic and drendod equinox, but mnuy n
"northeaster" quite ns terrible.
Tlie decks were slippery with ruin;
tliu ropes, innsts unit sails dripping,
tho tings with which onr steamer was
decorateil streaming—with water! In
fact, the ship presented tlie woe-be-
goiie appearance of n discouraged
rooster on a wet .lav, when with
drooping head and a bedraggled pin-
nmgu lie surveys a storm from a tern-
penny shelter, and ’twits mid these
joy-inspiring surroundings we began
our pleasnre tour. Tlie very darkies
on tlie wharf seemed to have eallght
the contagion from the weather and
moved silently, almost snlluuly, about
without, a song, a smile, or a caper,
loading ns and onr effects on the
steamer with the resigned mimriifid-
ness peculiar to those who “assist at
the last sad rites."
A sort of liiimnii barnacle—a black
fish, riuaii, stuck precariously to tlie
sides id the slimy dork an I surveyed
with apathetic indifference his Isili-
bing fish line, coquetting with decayed
watermelons and other "relies of the
past," llouinig iii tho Savannah river,
now and tliun darting under the
sides of our great steamer—Ids stare
1 unchanging attitndu seeming to
"Men may come nnd melt innygo,
but I stay hero forever." Ou the decks
and wharves were Hie signs at
tending departure—pesrple stumbling
over each other, everybody iu every
body clue’s way, land-lnbbers staring
wildly nt tbe nnarcustomed sights on
ship-board, nurses aud babies, liridrs
aud grooms, cages of mocking Mrdi
big turtles, orates of peaches, Georgia
watermelons, bales ot eottou—yes, and
poor Northern invalids going homo to
die—this strnnfee, incongruous freight
every Savannah steamer carries away
from our shores.
Near me I noticed a man pnrting
from bis wife and children—ho to stay
South, she to go North with tho ba
bies. Siokly and sad looked tbo lit
tle family. Ho kissod Ill's children,
but could not say, “Good-bye.”
bell rnng like a kucll and a man
shouted, "All go ashore who nro not
going with tlie ship." no turned to
bis wife but could not speak. Tbe
sailors were waiting to raise the gang
plnuk, nud tho poor hnsbnnd walked
it ns if going to his execution. Tbo
wife wcut off alone—liko a woman—
to cry, and bo wont off alone—like
man—to “tuko a drink," I supposo
(man’s panacea for all earthly ills and
evils). And now tho anchor is np—
tbo last link that bound us to earth is
broken—tbo ship begins to movo. A
moment ago it lay a dead thing, n life-
loss lunss of wood and iron; now its
pulses stir; its giant arms strike the
water; throb, throb beats its great
heart; it turus, like n sentient creat
ure, this way and that; it spreads its
wide, white wings to moot tho coming
tempest; liko a grnvo, tho water yawns
between us and tho land, wider and
deeper, widor nud ileoper it grows. I
turn to look at tile wharf in tho far dist
ance. Upon it stands ouo lonely man
who was watching "where poised be
tween the seii nnd sky dips down tbo
failing ship." Poor fellow I Somo
ono on this Bbip is dear to yon, and it.
“dips" out of yonr sight between nn
angry sky nud a stormy sea! I see a
a sailor approaching. I ask: “Will
there be a storm ?" Ho replies with a
grin of delight nt my ovideut anxiety
that lie is sure of it; indeed, bo knows
it. They have boon telegraphed to
look out for it, and uro preparing for
it now. With n sigh of dismay I go
to make preparations for it too. My
prepnru'ions nro simple. They con
sist in going to bed, where I lie mid
wait tho inevitable. Soon wo are
creasing the bar. Pitch, pitch; roll,
roll; the wuvos toss the great ship like
a cockle-shell. Is there a storm
don’t know, I don’t care—I am con
scious of nothing bnt nu inlinito mis
ery— the misery of son-siekucss. Ob!
eh I oh! " Who cumcs ?’* enter my

gentleman had treated with scorn
some humble suggestions I hud volun

disdain at a poor weak mortal liko mo.
He had discovered that the prettiest
woman on tho boat was traveling

er was, no nuver—oh, no—and if sho
should want her head held, for in

lidn’t mind it at all," etc. When,
therefore, he came staggering into my
state-room with such il ghastly smile
upon his lips -such a livid hue on his
het-k, I feebly inquired, “what in the
matter ?” He repliuil, "I don’t fool
piito well—indeed, not well at all-
in fact, I am as ‘sick ns n dog.’ ’’ I
was too far goue myself to take much
interest in his affairs, hut inanagod to
