O' WEAVKR. Dublin, Ga.. Oct. 13. 1880. “I do wish, auntio, that wo were a little riclior^ so that I might have pretty dressos like other girls. • On ly think of wearing this to the party tonight. IIow shabby and insiguifi- cant I will look.” ’ ' In her vexation, tears absolutely stand in Gertrudo Wynt.t’s eyes for ait instant. There was ati accent of reproof mixed with the fond pride iu the old lady’s voice, us she replied : “You do wrong to speak or even think discontentedly, my child ; for if ho has denied you wealthy, God has given you someth ins- which many would sucrifico all their .finery to possess.” As sho speaks, her aunt lakes the girl’s .face in her two hands, and r urns it around to tiie looking-glass. An involuntary smile chases away he rising tears us Trudie's eyes rest upon the beautiful reflection which greets her, and then she- turns and winds her arms in her impulsive way about her aunt’s neck. “Auntie, you’re a downright com fort ! 'fhore is no such thing us dis content where you are.” Before long the tusk of dressing is complotod, and Trndi^ stands ready for her first party j und, though linr costume is not the regulation tulle,' but a simple, blue morion, a sweeter, more lovable vision would be dif ficult to find. This evening is to b6 Trudie’s first peep in the fashionable world for she is the daughter of a minister who looks with disapproval upon what he considers frivolous amuse ments, and he has only consented, after much coaxing, to allow her to attend the party which their new neighbor, Mrs. Huntley, gave to celebrate the return from their long continental tour of her two sons. “Miss Wyant, let me introduce to you my sou, Mr. Huntley,” suid her hostess. As Trudie i ises to acknowledge the introduction, she almost draws a long breath ns her beauty-loving eyes take in the exceeding comeli ness of the manly, Apollo like face and form before her. Busides iiis handsome face, Ar thur Huntley possessed to perfection, the art of pleasing, und b.fore long Trudie ulmost forgot that only a short hour before she und her com panion were sttmgers to each other Later in the evening, Trudie meets Mrs, Huntley’s eldest son ; but only regards him to remark in Iter own mipd how very different he is from his brother—the one so grave and stern, while the other is all life and animation. Trudie’s first mcoling with Arthur Huntley is or.lv a forerunner of many others. She is u very young ami inexperienced, and ut the time goes on it is little wonder that she mistakes mere glitter for real gold and believe to tho ulmost every word which fails from her hundsumc lover’s Jips. And it comes to pass, that when impelled by the charm of her-win ning loveliness. Arthur obeys a mo ineutary,impulse, uiid whispers to her that 1 lie loves iter, asked for u liko assurance in return, Trudie gives it to him, and deems herself ulmo/t unworthy of the happiness that lias come.to her. The days go by on rosebud wings until suddenly Trudie is rudely a- wakened from her blissful dream bv tho knowledge that that very week her lover is to leavo- her to start up on a long journey. "Why did you not. tell me before • she asks, while tear-drops tremble on her long lashes. -i . “Because I wished to spare vol pain,” he answered. “Do not took so grieved, my darling ; 1L will not be long before I shall, and thou-—” ' Tho rest is whispered, and a I bright color bathes tho girl’s sweet innocent face, ns she raises hor lips to meet her lover'* kiss. This is Trndie's first real trouble but it is light to that which follows in two months’.lime.’ * 1 Ono day, with a very anxious face Mr. Wyant.T0.ll8 his daughter that u contagious fever has broken out a- tnong tho poorest inhabitants of the lower prat of the village, I , Trudie makes no remonstrance as she watches her father ' prepare to set oufc.uppn his -rounds of duty, for she knows that it will be of no avail; but her heart grows heavy with dire forebodings* 'And thOj.aro only too prophetic ; for one short week of days und night spent in praying and watching by tho sick docs its work ; uftd stricken down by the fever’s fatal grasp, Mr. Wyant is carried iu- to his home, never more to issue from its portals upon his errands of Christian mercy. It is hard, iudcod, for tho little daughter ; for, save her old, invalid unnt, Trudibis loft entirely alone. Then, for the first time, Howard Huutly has an opportunity of doing a service for the girl wliorno lie . has u*ug! known in his inmost thoughts to be the one woman in the world to him, notwithstanding, being aware of his brother!s engagement, lie has fully realized the hopeless ness of Iiis passion. But though site appreciates his brotherly kindness, and is grateful, as is natural, Trudie’s thoughts turn with longing towurds her ubsent lover. Bui the days roll by and merge into weeks and no reply comes to tbo pathetic letyor-in which she telpher betrothed of her bereavement, aud implores him to return to her. , One afternoon, os sho sits alone in the porch, sho sees Howard Huntley coming up the path. 1 He is holding a paper in his hand, As sho woleoems hitn, Trudie uo- licesthat ho seems strangely em barrassed, as if wishing to spoak and say something, and yet decoding to «lo so. A sudden, terrible fear springs in to her mind. “On, Mr. Huntley, bus anything happened to Arthur “Yes, Miss Trudie, something bus happened to him. lie is not deud,” (as he reads aright the pallor which overspreads ha* face) “but— He breaks off suddenly, and unfold ing paper, hands it to her. “This will tell you ; I cannot,” he says* There, in plain black und white before TrudieVejea, is this notice : “On the 15th inst., ut St Paul’s church, by the Rev. Mr. Colton, Alice. Rtymon to Arthur Vouuer Huntley.” For an instant Trudie gazed at the printed words ; then, with u lit tle cry, sho sink buck into her clirir. Bunding down, Howard tenderly takes her hand. “Forgive me, my poor.child,” he says, “for being the means of Uiub paining you, But I could not let any one else break it to you. Oh, I can not deem it possible that one bear- ,iug our honored name could bo so bust* ?’’ His vehement words elicit no re sponse, and seeing that Trudie scarcely hears what hois saying, Howard, .with ono lingering look of love aud leaves her, knowing tint such is the kindest way Iiis sympathy can evince itself. But sorrow does not kill, aud Trndie’s is a bravo heart-—too brave to allow itself to mourn unceasingly fay one who has proved himsejf so false and unworthy ; and after while her protty head uplifts itself courageously as of old, and uncoin- plaingly site takes up the burden of her. lonely life. - Patiently Howard bides his lime, until, at length, ho can restrain tho mighty tido of his love no longer Then, hesitatingly, doubting and fearing, yot vaguely hoping, lie tells Trudie of t he a fleet ion which he has hidden lung, but whioh will be con- coaled no longer, und asks hm t<. make his happiness by becoming his wife. *'■ v As lonely Trudie looks into his steadfast,- true face, a sense come over, hero of how safe and. sholtored sho would bo, as the wife of such an one as he. “Shull it bo as I wish ?” ho asks, softly. ‘Do you know Hint for the lovo you lavish upon mo I can muko you no return ?” slip answers. And knowing Umt.'flo you Strll wish me to bo your wife ?” •Yes,” Howard answers. “Know ing that, 1 still a&k you to oomo to me. Oh, little ono, to bo able to cure for you, uud shield you from all the ills of life, would be reward enough for mo. Answer me. Say yes, and 1 will bo content.” And softly site murmurs it. It is afternoon, u your later, in the wide veranda ut her bouutiful hemo sits Trudie. Very fair and dainty she looks, with the sunlight -touching, with teudor radioneo, her bowed licud. Jnst then from opt ono of the, low windows near her hey husband,sjteps,, to hor side. “Seo, Howard, u letter from your mother. Juntos just brought it to me. In it sho says that she will .vis it us next woek; and with her will conto, if agreoblo, your brother, Arthur, aud his wife.” “Well, little one,” Howard says, while his eyes rest with a keen scrutiny upon hor face, “how are you pleased ? Shull you be glad to see them ?” Trudie rends Ins unspoken thought. “Yes, certainly,” sho answers. “Is not any one who is dear to you suro of a cordial welcome from your wife ?” Trudie is wholly unprepared for her husband’s next action. With u sudden movement he druws her within his arms, and pushing buck tho curls from her candid brows, looks deep into hor eyes. “Trudie,” lie says, earnestly, “am I right in thinking tliut ut last, over so dearly us 1 love her, my wife re turns that love ?” Raising her eyes, deep and dark with emotion, Trudie gives him an answer which amply satisfies him. “My noble jiusband, until you taught me i never knew what real love meant, I love you, oh Iso tend erly and dearly, with an affection to which all other seems poor and in complete.” And as ko listens Howard fools that his unselfish devotion bus not been for naught—that it has its rec ompense ut lust.—Carl Brickett, in Sew York Ledger. The Smith-Westmoreland Duel. We lcurn that there is some little foundation for the predicted trouble between Dr. Westmoreland and Coi. Smith. It scorns tliut neurly a year ago Col. Smith said something or wrote something about Dr. West moreland, at which ho took offense. It had been so long, however, that Col. Smith furgot ull about it. But it seerns the doctor kept getting madder and madder, und a few days since sent Mr. Williams, of Alabama, to Oul. Smith to demand a rctruci- ion. *« “Why,” remarked Col. Smith, “that .happened nearly a year ago. Why didn’t yon notice it? Tho mat ter had.escaped my mind*” Mr. Williams said he hud been busy fixing np his printing office, and couldn’t attend to the affair sooner. “Well,” replied the Colonel, “I believe the code duello, gives me as long to make my reply as the offend od party took to notice the object ionable article.” Mr. Williams acknowledged that such was the ease. “Then you can conn; back in about a year from now and 1 will have my reply reudv. 1 am fixing fur my crop now, and huven’t much lime H fool away on such nonsense.” Here the affair ended,—.ifAt Banner. Wo Need State Hanks. Not only should Clip ton per cent tux on state bonds be repealed, but congress ought at onco repeal tho ono por cent tax on the circulation of national banks, and should go further and relenso the ten per cent rcaorvo now required of tho lust named banks, thut is to say, the circulation allowod national banks, should bo tho faoo value of the bonds required to bo deposited. Tho Mo- Pnorson bill covors this suggestion. Tho houso should take up-this bill alld pass it. ' As to stato banks, tho Chronicle would remark, that, upon life repoul of the prohibitory ton per cent tux, it would rest with oaoh state to de vise n system which would protect while it would subsorvo the interests of the pooplo. Wo huvo lived to no purpose if we cannot so hedge stato bank issues, by deposit of state botids in the stato treasury, to Bcoure the authorized circulation, und, at the sumo time, throw about tbo institu tion every chock and safeguard de manded by tho interests of deposi tors and tho pcoplo generally. More money —cheaper monoy—is tho great want of our people ut this time. Lot wlint may be said against the state bunks of 1800 and proceeding years, the fact ioniums that in ’GO, when tho hanks alltiddcd to were fullest fledged our pooplo were in the oujoyinont of the highest pros perity— A ugmta Chronicle. Good Rut oh to Observe. First ho honest and truthful, All depends upon this. If you huvo work to do, do it cheerfully. If you go out on business, attend to tho mutter promptly, and then uu promptly go about your own btiBi- incss. Don’t stop to tell storieR. If you haye a place of business, be there during business hours. No one can got rich sitting around stores and suloons. If you huvo to labor for a living, remember tnat ono hour in the morning is bettor than two at night. Do not meddlo with any business you know nothing of. A good business liuhit und reputa tion is always money. Help yourself aud olhors will help you. Be obliging. Do not be in too great liasto to gut licit. Do not spend time in idleness. Be kind. Learn to suy no. There is na ne cessity of snapping it out, but say it firmly and respectfully. Learn to think und act for your self. Bo valiant. Help others when you can. Keep ahead rather than behind time, /or it is easier to keep aheud than to catch up. Business Maxims. Ask Lliy purse what thou shouldst buy. Immediate demands should j meet with sturdy denials. A man. may loose bis goods for want of demanding them. Better one’s house be to litt le one day than to big all tho year round. Lost wealth may bo ropluced by industry, lost knowledge by study, loss' health by medicine ; but loss of time is gono forever. Whul sort of mortali'y is that which gets offended when asked to pay a debt which the debtor prom ised to pay long before the time of dunning ?—Cincinnati Enquirer.
