THE TWO WHITE HOSES. An Incident of Parisian Life. Mademoiselle Pascaline Benoit was one of the most renowned florin's in Paris. Him was an enthusiast in her profession, but ■very poor ; ntill ftho cultivated her flowers wftn poetic zeal which excited the ad miration of all whir knew her. llor little garden, situated at the outskirts of the city, always contained some prodigy of the vegetable kingdom. It was mid winter when a fine equipage drew up and stopped in front of Taocaliuu’s door. A lino-looking matron and u charm ing yoang lady alighted from the carriage; it was the marchioness do Itegeniul and Lor daughter. “Mademoiselle," said tho marchioness, "my daughter is to bo married tho day after to-morrow, and wo wish a whito rose for her wedding dress. lam told that yon have one.” "Yes, I have two,” replied Pascaline. “Can I seu them ? ” asked tho noble lady. •‘Certainly,” was tho response, and the two visitors work conducted to a beautiful rosebush l earing two bait-blown roses, winch shed a most delicious perfume. "Can't I have both of them ? ” inquired the marchioness. "No, madam,” snid Pascaline,' with a sigh—"one of them is already promised.” "Thou I will take this one,” said the lady. "What is the price t " “Two louis,” replied Pascaline, “Here is tho money,” said tho mar chioness. “Send tho rose to my hotel, Hue Saint Honors.” Paaouline bowed politely, and roeon ducted her wealthy customers to the door of her humble abode. “How fortunate," she thought., “Forty franks i With this sum I can pay my rent, save myself from being turned out. Oh, my dear mother ! ” who exclaimed, “from thy happy place in heaven thou still guard est and protectant thy daughter. ” Tlio night was one of sadness to Fasca lino. It was tho evo of tho anniversaay of the death of her mother, a good and pious woman, who had cultivated in her dangle tor two chaste affections—love of God and love of flowers. Slio wept as she reflected upon .the last moments of that adored mother, whom God had called to himself. It was a cold night. Death had already seined upon its victim. The weeping daughter sat beside the bedside. The dy ing mother said, in a fuiut but sweet voice: "Pasealiue, are your white roses still living V ” “Yes, mothor.” was tho reply. “Then bring them to mo, that I may enjoy them once more. The daughter brought them. They were two beautiful, full-blown roses upon one branch ; but the doctor said that one of these flowers might injure the patient. "No, never mind,” said Madam Benoit; "these roses, like my child, will live long after me. Fasealine, give mo ono of them. Bury this olio with mo." While she lay a corpse, tho rose was placed iu her hand ; but as tho dead body was placed in tho eoflln, tho leaves of tho flowers fell off. She was buried, and the grave had scni-coly closed, when tho daugh ter made a solemn vow, as chaste and ten der as tho heart that inspired it. The night was thus passed in prayer and filial remembrance. Next morning she resumed her task in the garden. Blio re collected that she had engaged to send a rose to tho marchioness, and she went to plnok it; but (sad to relate !) ono of the flowers had withered away. Hnt a single roso now remained. That day the proprietor came and de manded tho payment of his rout. < “Sir," said Pasooline, “I am nimble to pay you.” "How’s that? yon have money," said tho landlord, reminding her of the two louis which he had learned sho had re ceived from tho marchioness. "That is no longer mine,” sho replied. "The whito rose has withered and died. The money is to he returned.” "But there is another roso remaining,” said he, "why not send it ? ” “That is already promised,” said Pasoa lino ; "all tho guld in the world would not purchase it 1" "Then,” said tho irritated proprietor, "you must prepare to leave at once. I cannot allow tenants to occupy my prop erty for nothing.” “You shall be obeyod,” said tho girl, calmly. Upon receiving tho money which sho left with Pasealiue tho day before, the mar eliioneas lmstend to the garden for the purpose of lenrning why the rose had not been sent She was informed that Mad emoiselle Benoit bad just gone out with a whito rose iu her hand. The marchioness turned and saw her walking down the street ; then, prompted by curiosity to see where she was going, she resolved to fol low her. A* length Pascaline entered a cemetery. She knelt at the grave of her mother ; and after planting tho rose upon it, she ex claimed : "Oh, my mother ! n.'cept this pledge of my remembrance 1 Deceive this flower which thou iovest so much, aud which my own bauds have cultivated for thee. In tercede for thy poor child, who is this day without protection or hope 1 ” And with her team bedewed tho wooden cross, which was the only monument that marked tho resting place of that beloved mother. The marchioness, moved in tears, re tired unpercoived. Tho next day Pasca line was preparing to leave her homo, when a well-dressed servant delivered her the following note, inclosing two hundred louis : MxDEMujsEi.T.ie —I know all. I know you have given to your mother tho tiower with" which I winhod to adorn my wedding robe. 1 have a mother whom I telore, and can appreciate votir siatemal devotion. I therefore take this oppor tunity of expressing my sympathy with von In such heartfelt proof of filial affection, l’.i-a-e ac cept the 'inclosed as snkatge of my remembrance. I hope you will not refuses this privilege of com mencing my married life by honoring all filial piety. Your sincere friend, ’ Akesaide nr Urnr-vi.u. - When do teeth usurp the tongue's pre rogative ? When they are chattering. Political Summary. The Minnesota Republican Convention met on the 28th of July, and nominated John W. Piilsbtiry for Governor. Senator McDonald, of Indiana, lias been looking over the field in Ohio, and is uoufidunt Unit the Democrats will win Tho New York Democratic Stale exe cutive Committee will meet nt Saratoga on August 18th to arrange the time and place for holding tho BUite Convention. Our latest advices from Ohio, and from Republican as well as Democratic sources, are that Allen will certainly be elected Governor by from 20,000 to JO,OOO majority An interesting sight: Horace Greeley looking blandly down from his portrait in the Tribune office on tho city laborers ns they went in and out from the tall tower rum simp on Hnuday lost. Governor Aroes, of Mississippi, is miss ing. The only reference to his where abouts which has appeared lately is this in the Columbus (Miss.) JnUtix: "The Chief Executive of tho State loll* at Iris case in his northern heme, leaving our lives in the hands of a negro who has re peatedly violated his oath of ofHee, 'and, to make a few dollnrs to spend in drunken orgios, opens tho prison doors of robbers, outlaws and murderer*, thus making justice a miserable faroo,” Lafayette Lana has boon nominated for Congress by tho Democrats of Oregon. Ho is n sou of General Joe Lane, a young lawyer of marked ability, and a Democrat ic politician of the most radical typo. Tho platform of the Convention covers State rights, the payment of tho public debt, resumption of specie payments, legislative control of railroad fares and freights, and demands reform in all departments ; bids for tho support of the Patrons of Hus bandry ; opposes tho protective tariff, pa per currency, national banks, Chinese migration, fraud and corruption in office. Occasionally there nro indications that tho third term question is not entirely dead. Out in Nebraska they soem to think there is still something in it, for thy Omaha Herald cays: : Democrats or Ito publicnns who speculate upon tiro Presi dency would do well not to count out Ulysses Grant as a candidate.

Can any pros pect bo more dreary than that which lies before such a bride ? What has she to look forward to, what to expect, what to hope ? Linked not for n day, but for life, to one with whom she has no sympathy—who is no more than a stranger, save that in law and in faot, but not in soul, ho is her hus band ! Is it not dreadful to contemplate 1 How much moro so to experience 1 la na tural and it in proper that parents should desiro that their daughters should marry well, and it is reasonable tlmt they should prefer for them husbands in comfortnble circumstances. But when it cornea to tho exercise of compulsion iu the selection of a husband—to commanding a daughters to relinquish an engagement or an attachment on which tier whole soul is fixed, and to marry a man towards whom site feels in difference or dislike - that is a very-difficult mnttcr.
