car The Ladies in Russia are very
anxious to marry because they have no
liberty before marriage. They are kept
Constantly under the paternal eye until
given up to their hnsbaud, and then
they take their own coUrs. Almost as
soon as a girl is borne, in the better
rahke of society, her parents begin U)
prepare the dowry she must have When
she goes to het husband. She must fur
bish everything for an otitfit in life, even
to a dozen new shirts lor her coming
husband. The young man goes to the
house of his proposed bride and count
over her dressts, and examines the fur
niture, and sees the whole with his own
eyes before he commits himself to the
irrevocable bargain. In high life sueh
things are conducted witn more appa
rent delicacy; but the facts a e ascer
tained with accuracy, the business being
in the bauds of a broker or notary.—

SIX INCHES OF STEEL.
Yeart ago—how long I need iWt
tell—l wished to learn the two
pVoiuinefit accomplishments of a gentle,
man <>V that d»y, fencing and dancings
A friend gave me the address AT a ten
ftYit of his in Russell Square, a frencli
refugee, wh'6 taught these arts. One af*
teifioon I called and asked was M.
Jacques at home. A stout, hearty-look
ing English girl o| en *d the door, and
replied that the oii gentfeiftun was in,
would I •come in here ?’ -Here’ was a
small room on the right of the passage.
The heavy slipshod Teet toiled up the
stone ntaftcaSe; I heard a door half
opened, and the murmuring of vimie.-,
and then the alijn-hod teet toiled up
another fl.ght, and a Arm yet light.tread
descending told me that M. Jacques
was coming.
The "door opened and a tall, white
haired, soldier like figure entered the
room, and the keen eyes swallowed uie
abd thy belongings at a gfuce.
‘Good day, sir. You uie English;
but, do you speak French V
• Un pen.'
‘An I I see, a very, very little ; let
us toeu talk in your tongue till by and
by.’
Clearly, I did not Speak French well,
in M. Jacques’ »piiii<>n.
‘ Vou desire me lor what)’
‘My triend, Mr. Wilsou— ’
‘Ah ! your friend- he is a very good
man —a gracious man ; yes.’
‘lie stated that you could teach fen
cing and dancing.’
* 1 us, that i* true ; I can teach fen
cing and dancing, in it for that you
want me V
‘lt is. 1 desire to learn lioth accom
plishments as speedily us possible.’
‘Good; that is well; 1 like your ener
gy When will you begiu ?’
‘Now, if u suits you.’
‘Quite so. lam at your set vice.’
‘But you have not mentioned the
terms.’
‘Terms r
‘Yes. How much shail I have to
pay
‘Yea, to pay. I had forgotten. You
shall pay me tor four lessons, one guinea,
left well"? Are you satisfac— eatisfao
ted?’
‘fStftWfied.'’
‘Yes, that is ft A.fe you satisfied ?'
‘Quite. 1 will take twelve lessons in
each art.’
’Twe’ve lessons ! B.ih! you shall
need little when you ‘shall reach the
ending of your course, if you have de
scent, as you call it here-**tttood not
bourgeois—y .u uodei'stahd.’
‘My ‘fa* heV, sir, was a the
son of a p »or country gentleman. I
am— *
‘iV importe. I can see what yon are.
€ shall make you a good swordsman in
a little time, if you will keep your eye
on your adversary as you kept it ftftTife
when I made that speech to you. You
have what you call 'pluck,’ it is right—
‘pluck ?’
‘Quite right.’
‘1 hen dune, and we shall try Vour
eye and wrist up-stall**.
lie went up-si airs, and I followed the
old soldier We entered a lar re, well
lighted room on tha first floor, bare of
all iu niture hut a piano, then a rarer
instrument than now, and a few chairs.
On the piers between the w indows hung
Wtoie hols atwl masks, while some half
dozen single sticks stood iu the corner.
‘Now, monsieur, will you place your
self there, us thus : with your body up
fight, ahd lift'd Vour arms hanging loose
ly to your side*-, com/tie ca’
The old gentleman put himself in
position: aw he did so, I noticed the
slightest fnftp, t%<* sb&fttest but
s ilia limp—ttiat I siW, \k’atohed
.un dining the lesson, was from a stif
feuing of the knee jo. nt. I tlought it
was a curious thing to |»e taking ales
son iu the most active id eXer»lsea of an
old gent-einan w'ho wuh fame, but I
could see at once that he wus a peifei'A
in ster ol the wcajion.
‘That will do for today for tfie sword,
monsieur ; now for the dance, if n»or»
sii-ur is hot too much fatigued ’
‘Not at all—not the least
‘Well then, to begin. You know a
little of the dalice ?’
‘A very Very little—as little as of
French inous-eOr. .
'A-lr 1 you shall know all better in a
little ’
He took from off the piano a small
vioun and a bow, hud ran a Vapid scale
on the strings.
‘(ieod. Now, place yourself comme
t<i Oftef, two, three. You see it is

not tlaftbe ’
‘Another day—’ l began;.,
‘No, no; remain ! we shill nuinace'.
He moved to the door and hall open
ing it. called tthpallbhity in Frvhcli t
'Julie, Julie, descend quickly in yoiir
shoes.' In a few second.- entered Jnlie.
Julie ! tt is a liSRg time nOW since 1
first saw Julie. Can l picture hei ? A
tall* dark girl, with black—int nsely
black—large eyes, child's eyes ; a small
mouth, full lips, and a form thin, la my,
and lithe aA a greyhound's! diessed in
a low child’s dress, much too small and
sh'drt ft r her. She was like a child of
ten, seen through a glass that made her
the size of a girl of eighteen. ‘Marlemoi
zelle de Bonheur—Monsieur Arthur
Forrester.’
She com tested low, in the style then
in fashion; I made my best bow. ‘Ju
lie, my liiiHJ is tri day weak ; I cannot
teach ; you shall teach this gentleman
his dance.’
‘Out, nton, pere.’
‘Now begin. Un, detit, trois. Re
gard nindemotselle’s feet, monsieur; it
her feet that dances. Un, deux, trois.’
And so oh for nearly half an honr, dll
Hng w hich the eternal ‘Un, deUX, trois’
was iHkrtisicinally. interrupted by little
ol the sttings with the fingers,
and sudden sweepings of the bow over
the instrument, ‘Good, rnonsi. ui ; yon
have soul ; yon shall yet dance—you
feel music. It shall be creditable to
me to have taught you. Julie., you
shall wish rnonsieu r good day.’
Bonjour, monsieur,’ said Julie; and
with a low bourtesy she left ns.
‘And when will y id c'oifle again V
‘The day after to-morr.ow lean come.*
‘B-ien; conic then. 1 shall hope my
limb will then be well.- Benjonr, Mon
sieur;- and the old gentlemfun rang the
bell and bowed toe ont.
The day came, aqd I went again, aud
was directly shown up-Btairs into the
room.
‘Ah, monsieur, we are unfortunate ;
my limb is no use. This climate «>1
yours is bad for the old soldier; my
wounded limb aches for want of the
sun ’
‘I shall be glad to call another day, if
more convenient.’
‘No, *; it is of no consequence;
Julie will teach you. Will you be *0
ftitid 118 ro open the door folr me ?—I
am cripple.’
‘Ce tainlv.’
‘Julie, Juliet’ thundered the old
rnau ; ‘descend quickly, with your shoes
and your cor age ’
Julie came speedily, and with a smalj
leather breast guard la her bund. 440»
j .ur roansieur ’
‘Bm.jour, Mademoiselle Ju—de Boil
heur.’
‘See, nqwyyou shall tatce j-our lesson
from Mademoiselle,’ said monsieur, as
he bii‘ kied on her leather armor, and
fi led her, mask ‘Now, salute, .lulie,
salute,’ Julie went through the mo
tions with ease and grace that t-xeelied
her lather’s. ‘Now, you must regard
the baud iif mademoiselle': the tittle has
not come to you Ki thatch her eyes.—
Now,in guard. Good Carte—thrust.’
I thrust as gently as possible, vVhile
Julie, with the toil in her left hand, slip,
ped the fiugera o! the right hand along
Irty blade to aid the bend in Hub fen
cing style.
‘Bah! Monsi.ur, do not fear; it hus
not arrived to you yet to be dangerous
tb mademoiselle. Again, that. You
must lunge with yotsr body, and ol
mademouMeile have no tear; she c«h
guard herself. Your uails up a little
more. Now, the caite —thrust. That
is he ter. Again ’
The situation wa* horrible; to be
compel ed to thrust lull in the cheat of
this chihl; but there was no help for it,
and I did it; and so we went on through
the whole ot tl»e motions—-prime, sec
ond, quint, parad--, low carlo, und the
rest of it—Julie placing herself in the
proper position, and thi listing and guar
ding with a vigor uud grace that tlioie
than equalled her teacher’s.
Alter the fencing cuiue the dancing
with its ‘Un, denx, troia 1 and a repeti
tition of the camion that mandemoni
aelle'e feet, should be regarded, as it
was w ith those she was teaching.
The limb continued weak for some
lime, uud the lesson continued to be
given by Julie, and as my eyes began
to get accustomed to look on hers
through the haze of the wires of the
mask—for I had become practiced
enough to be (»erinittud to cross ioils
with hdr tn real uttack«aiid defence —l
saw a change ’hftd 'cotnw over them ;
the child was growing a woman ; theie
was no longer the stare iff ctiikl alt cu
riosity, or the simple glance of tti«
practiced feuier; there was more, the
woman's soul waking iu them. Her
form altered ; the angles were becoming
rounded, the g ace wus more graceful,
but tlie thin tightly stretched skin on
the face aud shoulders, that altered bat
little * ' —-
Une dn|y I taught a box of chocolates
for the old gentleman, who at last well
enough to take the foils; he ate some,
and gave the box to Julie, and we went,
ou with our lesson, she lemaftWd in
the room for the dancing. When the
lesson was over, lie said: ‘Ah 1 how I
will enjoy one of your lit.ln chocolates.’
Julie started as if from a dreiun —the
box was empty. He laughed, and
said : ‘Ah. my child, you are so fond
of chocolates, you have not lelt your
la'her <>ue. ‘ Ah . coquine' —and he pinch
ed her ssar—‘ah, greedy one !’
She blushed, the teuts started iu her
y<-e, she said nothing.
Bah I Now, moiisie r, I have broken
my string. Julie, go get me— No; you
don't know where; I'll myselt go.—
Ma<leittoi-vllo shall play you some mu
sic while 1 atn gone, monsieur ; iu a few
minutes I shall return-.’
The old man klt the room w ith his
ThStruVnent, and Julie turned to the ,i
--atio and sat down. As l opened it, she
sa.d, with her voice lull of teais: ‘Mon
sit-ur, you must not ihfok me a greedy
child.’
•But, said I hiMghipgly, ‘you ate the
whole box.’
‘ I rue, monsieur ; but since last Sun
day 1 have eaten nothing but some
bread—since yesterday, nothing lam
not grvedv ; I was hungry and forget -
till.’.
*My G«-d, mademoiselle! what can
you me..n ? Y<-u are destroying your
self. VV by did ui'u hot eat—at your
age?’
‘At my age ? There it as nothing to
eat; «fier Maty had eaten, theie Was
notlong to eat.’
‘Heav«na !’ Poor child I is this pos
sible ? 1, wretch that I am, have never
unfce offered to pay Vour father what I
owe him; why, . have had one
course of lessons after another and paid
for none. Why did not your lather
speak—remind file ?
‘AbVdsteur do Bon henr would die first ’
‘I will pay this moment. Fool that I
was not to see ft in your face I’
Am 1 then so thin V
‘Thin 1 poor child P
‘t hihi! lam seventeen motisiear.’
‘Sev. nteen. mademoiselle!’
*Oui, monsieur; j ui dix-sept tins.’
‘I ant Vei-y sorry ; I will at once see
J’o'ur father.’ v
‘Bo not disturb yourself so much,
monsieur; it is nothing. II it had not
been for the chocolates, 3«iu would n«*t
have known about it at all. but I could
not let you think me a greedy child.—
You will not speak to my father as if I
had told you ? Promise me. lie would
never forgive Hit:’
‘Mademoiselle, I promise.’
The old gentleuian now entered with
the hew string properly adjusted, and
once more we began the one, two, three,
lour.
4 Alachinalement , J ulie, machinalement ;
Monsieur is to learn to dance, not to
dance for his pleasure. Un, deux, trois
comma ca.’
And so we went through the minuet
and the new waits, to the scraping of
the violin ; and whenever we nitived a
little too much, as though we were dan
cing for pleasure instead"" of pratcing,
‘Machinalement, Julie, un, deux, trois,’
speedily brought us to task level.
At the close of the lfesson, 1 stated
that 1 Was uncertain about Iteiug able to
to come again for sometime, and should
be glad to discharge, as Itff hh money
could, IWjr obligations ttt bita.’
‘N'irhpoftfj, rtiondrertr; when you
have completed, will be good.’
CUTHBER.T, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1870.
‘I must beg You to allow me to settle
the matter n<»w.’ t .
,‘Bieiq’ said monsieur, wfth a strug
‘lf you wish it; and he dropjied the
gninies without counting them into h s
Waisteo it pocket, with an air of tndd
ferem-e that would have beer) fft'iYghable
but for the story I had just heard from
poor Julie. I left the house and waited
at the street corner to see what would
happen; and in few moments" I saw the
English gi*l come «ut with her basket,
on the top a little bottle of foreign make;
and then I left, determined that while
my ignorance of fencing and daftt-ing
Could pfteVeftt it »lie *hould never eat
another box of ohoeulatt‘B from sheer
hunger.
It was more than a week before I
again went to the house. The change
Waft complete; Julie wus a woman, a
beautiful brilliant woman. Food bad
acted on her as by tn .gic. Her drew
too was altered, higher in the throat,
.lower in the skirt, but still short enough
to show the most delicate foot aud an
kle I ever saw.
The oM mail saw no difference. -
When the limb was well, If. need with
him while Julie played, when the limb
was bad, I fenced and daft’e-d with u
lie, with only an oce&sianal ‘Plus ma
l YiinAtemeat, J uRe, un, deux, trois.’—
And so it went on for months till the
old gentleman said to m : ‘Monsieur, it
is time for yon to feave us You are a
gtM»d swordsfuan; it is only practice
that you need to be one pi tiie be.-t. I
no longer take yuur money for
teaching you, us i can teach you uoib
mg.’
1 pleaded foi just one more course of
lessons; I could not yet disarm.
‘True, monsieur, ydb cannot; you
shall have one more course of lessons.—
M.y wvist is now getting stiff, as well
UBmy li nli; but Julie's, is tW stbel
Blie *h.il teac.i ,yob. When you can
disarm Julia; there is no more we c»n
teach yob ’
1 don't know how it happened 1 , but
just at this time, when my adrnii alien—
-1 don’t say love, but admiration—for
Julie was at its highest point,! fell ill
love, literuily headlong; not a moment's
warning was given me. I went to my
mother’s one evening, and fin eftttft'mg
the room, suw my destiny.
I went to take my lessons as usual,
but i took no iuteiest in them. I was
changed; and never did I get fiercer
thrusts 111 the fencing .essous. Six or
eight times a foil sprang out of my hand,
as if I hud been a novice. I was net
tled. What bud I done or said to cause
it ? I gave up guessing, und attended
to the lesson ouce more. Her foil, like
a lithe serpent, seized mine, and threw
it with a loud clang against the wall.
‘Duueement, Julie; douncetneiit, tna
fille; doueement. Monsieur is fatigued.
You had better cease.’
And neVer once during the dancing
lesson that followed was uttered the
usual ‘Machiiialement, Julie;’ all the
life and energy seemed to haVe test her
The next lesson presented the same
features, a littlcM ore subdued.
Bet ween the tftird and last lesson, I
happend to ii*e*t to Julie and her
lather in the street; I bowed and my
companion asked who they were.
‘My fencing master aud his child.’
‘Child ! Arthur.’
‘Daughter, I should have said. I’m
going there to*-HHftr’ow for my last leß
‘Oh !’ And my destiny was Yftorte si
leut than u»ual during our walk home.
On the morrow 1 went to Russell
Square ; und before we hud been en
gug«d ten minutes, the old gentleman
was called awyy to see some visitor.—
He left the room with an apology to me,
and I turned to renew iny contest with
Julie. She had thrown aside her Yfta*ks
and was standing with the poiut of
foil in fu r left hand.
‘Now, Jinie,’ said .1, —for insensibly
we hud dropped into the way of calling
euch other Julie and Arthur—‘now, Ju
lie, once more.'
‘My name is Bonheur, monsienV;
Mademoiselle de Bonheur. Who was
that blonde English woman I nu t you
with yesterday ?’
*V\ ho wasit ? That lady, Julie, will
be my wile in ess than a mouth;**-
VVhai's the matter, Julie? Are you ill?
‘hi n thing. Takeoff your mask;
We mb and in'it always play 1 ke children,
monsieur.’
I threw ft off into the corner of the
room and we began. I was quite cool;
she evidently under the influence of
*ome strong passion, with arnazmg en
ergy Therefore she lunged at me with
all her force and skill, ami 1 felt once, as
the | stint of her foil glided down mine,
• hat thought the feather was there; the
button at the end wa* goife.
‘The button of your foil is off. made
moiselle.’
‘f know it, monsieur; 1 have taken it
oft N ow, monsieur, y<»u shall be mar
ried in a month, but hot us you Are.—
It is yoiir fair lalse tace she loves; but
U shall not l.e fair; she shull find murks
on it that will change it ! It shall not
be the face I know so well that shull be
hers to earessj No, Nt>.’
‘Blit, Julies—’
‘Be guarded, monsieur* this foil has
no button. I doubt if you shall live a
month.’
And she attacked rtie wi h a fury that
made me need every artifice she had
taiighi rtie to ward oft her thrusts. At
last it came carte over the arm i I par
red badly and the pointed blade ripped
up my arm from wrist to shouh'fer.
Tue moment she saw the blood, she
threw away the 1011, and rushed towards
the. I sank on to the eon h fainting
from h»ss .-f blood, with just strengtfi
enough left to say break « ff the potnt,
Julie, dear,’ and then swrooned.
V\ hen I came to, my arm was bound
up, and I beard her sub as I lay with
my mind awake but my body ino.ioti
less:
‘Oh, my Arthur! my love! I have
killed yon t I have k‘l.ed you, for whom
1 would have died I Oh, w-retch that 1
am; he will die—he will die I’
Sue laid her face on my ami
shook me with her sobs.
‘Don't cry. Jnlie, d<>uY cry; it tfctfs an
accident, l know, and— ’
‘No—you will live--you must live to
forgive ine It was not an accident— l
meant to kill you, wretch that I am !’
1 could nnlv say ;
*Don’t Cry J ulie, dear. What do they
say ? Where is the point ? Give it me.’
She gave me the broken off part of
the foil 1 saw it had been rubbed on
some stohe till it was as a needle.
When M. de B<mheur returned, he
brought with him his visitor, who by
good fortune happened to be an old
comrade of hip. '.
'Well, are you better now ? How 3id
it happen ?’
‘The p lit of the foil broke off, ami
the e*lge, took me on tbe Wist as I
lunged.’
‘Bah !—Julie, yon muni have gnar
ded very badly to do that. Where is
the foil ? Yes; I see the point is broken
off. Where is the point ?’
‘lt must be about the r< on.’
The visitor looked at Julie, nftd Sai l 5
‘lt does not mattet ; it can be found by
and by, when this gentleman has gone.
He will be str-nig enough in an hour to
go—meanwhile, let him r<st a little;
Julfe take care of him.’
Ah, Julie, bat it was an awkward
guard of yours, ami Hie bid, too must
have been b id; I shall buve to coin
plain to the maker.’
Poor Julie*at by ifte, quite penitent
and quite forgiven, Tor aft IVo'ur or more,

A BiArmuL Figure.—Life i* like a

Thoughtless mortals are strtTOuiftde'd by
innumerable dangers which make it
much niurt strange that they almost all
perish suddenly at last. We are encom
passed with accidents every day suffi
cient to crush the decaying tenements
we inhabit. The seeds of dis-asi- are
planted in onr constitution by Nature
The earth and the atmosphere whence
we draw the breath of life are impreg
lialed with death; health is made to
operate its own destruction The food
that nourishes contains the elements of
decay; the soul that animate* it by
vivifying first tends to wear it out by
then own action; death links in um
bush along the paths. Nothwithstand
ing the truth is so probably confirmed
by the daily example be ore our eves,
how little do we lay it to heart! We
see our friends and neighbors die; but
how seldom does it occur to our thoughts
that our knell may next give the warn

The time occupied in disposing of a
mouthful of food will thus lie prolong

a greater impression on the pftlatu.—
The stomach will hot be treated to a
cataract of half drowned morsels, but
at proper intervals to well prepared ina

haste, no bolting; the tendency to stuff
and overload ttie Stout tCh will be efi-ek

Discontent.— How uuiversd it is I
We never heard the man who could say
‘I am content!’ Go where you will,
among the rich or poor, the man of
competence or the man who earns his
bread by the daily sweat of Ins brow,
you hear murium mg and the voice of
complaint. Tiie other day we stood by
a co.ip;r who was playiug a merry time
with the adz around a cuss. ‘Ah !’
sighed he, ‘mi ie is a hard lot—forever
trotting around like a dog, J living away
at a hoop.’
‘Heigho !' Bighed a blacksmith, one
