TALES & SKETCHES. 'II li: FACTOR V Oil 11 1... BT AMY RANDOLPH. It was a little Bttulio, quite at the top of tho house. Upon tho easel that occupied the post of honor in tho middle of the room, a piece of cunvass glowed with the soft tints of n priu landscape, and Frank Seymour stood bul'ure it, piilctte iu hand, his large brown eyes dreamy with a sort of inspira tion. ' ' ' " In a comfortable enjy chair by the door sat a plump, rosy little lemale, in a luce cap with plenty of narrow, white satin rib bon fluttering from it, and a silver-grey pop lin dress Mrs. Seymour, in fact, our artist's mother, who has just come up from the very basement "to see how Frank was getting ulong." j "Here, mother," said the young man, with an enthusiastic sparklo in his. eyes, "just see the way that sunset light tourches the topmost brunches of the old maple tree. I like the brown, subdued gold of that tint; it somehow reminds 1110 of Grace Teller's hair." Mrs. Seymour moved a litt'.o uneasily iu her chair. "Yes, it's very pretty; bnt it strikes mo, Frank, you are lately discovering a good many similitudes between Miss Teller and your pictures." Frank laughed good humoredly. "Well, mother, she is pretty." "Yes, I don't deuy that Bhe's pretty enough," "Now mother, what's the meaning of that ambiguous tone!" denmnded the young in list, pleasantly. " W hat have you discover ed about Miss Grace Teller that isn't charm ing and womanly nnd lovely ?" "Frank do you know who she is?" "Yes, I know that she's a remarkable pretty girl, with a voice that sounds exactly like tho low, soft rivulet where I used to play when I was a boy." "Nonsense," said Mr. Seymour sharply. "Well, then, if you're not satisfied with her ns she is. would you like to know what she will bet" Mrs. Seymour looked puzzled. "Mother, I think gho will one day be my wife 1" "Frank ! Frauk ! are you crazy ?" "Not that I know of," said Mr. Seymour, composedly, sqeezing a little deep blue on hi3 palette out ot a dainty un tuue, ami mixing it thoughtfully. " e know so htllu about lier," thought Mrs. Suvmour. "To be sure, she js visiting Murv Elton, and Mary belongs to a very good familv, if she does live in half a house, . -.. f - 1!..! ana tawe in nne cinuroiuery ior n living. But then she has no style at all compared with Cynthia Parker, and Cynthia always did fancv our i 'rantr. men, moreover, sue has five thousand dollars of her own. But, dear me 1 A young mau in love is the most head strong creatuie ulive ! Mrs. Seymour mused a while longer, and then put on her mouse colored silk bonuet aud grey shawl and set out upou a tour of investigation. "I'll litid out something about Miss Teller, or I'll know tho rcasou why," thought the iutiefuliguble widow. , Miss Grace Teller wns "at home," helping Mary Elton in an eluborate piece ot Ono embroidery. The room where the two girls sat was very plulD, carpeicu wuu uie cuchij tst ingrain and curtained w ith very ordiuary pink uud white chintz, yet it looked snug aud cheery, lor the fut blackbird was chirp ing noibily in tue wuiuow, anu a atuuu in uiignionette and velvet blossomed pausies gave a delicate refinement to tho details of every day life. Mary Elton was pale, and not at all pret ty, though thero was a tremulous sweetness about her mouth that seemed to whisper that she might have been very different un der different circumstances. Gruco Teller was a lovely blonde, w ith large blue eyes, rose-leaf sktu and hair whose luminous gold fell over her forehead like an aureole. As Mrs. Seymour eutered a deeper shade of piuk stole over Grace's beautitul cheek, but otherwise she was calm and self posses sed, and readily parried the old lady's in terrogatorits. "Very warm this morning," said the old lady funning herself. "Do they .have as warm weather where you como from, Miss Teller?'' . "I believe it U very sultry In Factory ville." said Grace, composedly takiog another needleful of white silk. . "Factory ville I Is that your native place 1 Perhaps, then, you know iir. barker Cyn thia Parker' father who superintends the great calico mills iu that place 1" "Very well I have often seen him." "Ara you acquainted with hia daughter, Cynlhia!" . ' . "No I believe Miss Parker spends most of her time iu this city." ' "That U very true," said Mrs. Bcymour, sagely. "Cynthia often says there's no society worth having in Factory vilUs only the girls that work in the factory; and Cynthia Is very genteel. But excuse my curiosity Miss Teller how did you become acquainted with Mr. Parker, and not with, his daugh ter r , Grace colored. "Business brought me In contact frequent ly with the gentleman of whom you speak, but I never happened to meet Miss Parker." Mra. Seymour gaw little start in bar chajr she ja beginning to see through tha mystery. ' ." . t 19, 1867. OLD "Perhaps you have something to do with the calico factory 1" . "I have," said Grace with calm dignity. . "A factory girl ?" gasped Mrs. Seymour, growing red and white. Is there any disgrace in tuis title V quick ly asked Grace, although her own cheeks were dyed crimson. - "Disgrace! Oh, no certainly not; there's no harm in earning one's living in an hon est way," returned Mrs. Seymour, absently. Tho fuct was, she was thinking in hor in most mind, "what will Frank say?" and anticipating the flag of triumph she was about to wave over him. "I do not hesitate tn confess," went on Grace, looking Mrs. Seymour full ia the face, that to the calico factory I owo my daily bread." "Very laudable I'm sure," said the old lady, growing a little uneasy under tho blue clear gaze, "only there are steps and gra dations in society, you know, and and I am a little surprised to find you so intimate with Miss Elton, whoso family is " Mary came over to Grace's bide, and stoop ed to kiss her cheek. "My dearest friend my most precious companion," she murmured, I should be quito lost without her Mrs. Seymour." Tho old lady took her leave stiffly; nnd did not ask Grace to return her call, although she extended an invitation to Mary, couched in the politest and most distinct terms. "Frank I" she ejaculated, never once stop ping to remove shawl or bonnet, and burst ing into her sons studio like an express mes senger of life-and-death news, "who do you suppose your paragon of a Miss Teller is?" "Tho loveliest of her sex," returned Frank, briefly and comprehensively. "A factory girl I" screamed the old lady, at the height of her lungs, "a fac-to-ry girl!" "Well, what of that ?" "What of that? Frank Seymour, you never mean to say that you would have any thing to do with a common factory girl." "I should pronounce her a very uncom mon factory girl, mother," said the young man, with aggravating calmness. "Frank, aon't jest with me," pieattea too poor little mother with tears in her eyes. "Tell 1110 at once that you wui give up that idlo fancy for a girl who ia in no respect equal to you. "iso she is in no respect my equal," re turned Frank, with reddening check and snnrklins eve. "but It is becuuse she is in every respect my superior. Grace Teller is one of tho noblest women that breathed this terrestrial nir, ns well as one of the most beoutiful. Mother I love her, and she has promised to be my wife." Mrs. Seymour sat down, limp, lifeless and despairing. "Frank, Frank, I never thought to see my son marry a factory girl." And then a torrent of tears came to her relief, whilo Frank went on quietly touch ing up the scarlet foliogef a splendid old maple in the foreground of his picture. ' "So you are determined to marry me, Frank, in spite of everything ?" Grace Teller had been crying ; tho dew was wet on her eyelashes, and the unnatu ral crimson on her checks ns Frank Seymour came in, and Mary Elton considerately slipped out "to search, for a missing pat tern." "I should rather think so," said Frank, looking admiringly down on tho golden head that was stooping among the pausies. "But your mother thinks mo far below you in social position." "Sociul position be ignored t What do I care for sociul position, as long ns my little Gracio has consented to make the sunshine of my home." "Yes, but Frank " "Well but Grace?" "Do you really love me?" For answer he took both the fair, delicate littlo hands in bis, and looked steadily into her eyes. "Frank," said Graco Teller, demurely, "I am afraid you'll make a dreadful strong willed, obstinate sort of a husband." "1 shouldn't wonder, Grucic." And so the golden twilight faded into a purple softer than the shadow of eastern ainethvslD, and the stars came one by one, and still Frank and Gracio talked on, aud still Mary Elton didn't succeed in finding that pattern.' Mra. Sevmour was the first guest to ar rive nt Mrs. Randall's select soiree on the first Wednesday evening iu July ; the fuct was. she wanted a chance to confide her grief to Mrs. Kandall's sympathetic ear. "Crvinsr? Yes of course I have been cry inn. Mrs. llandall I've done nothing but cry for a week." "Mercv unon us." said Mrs. Randall, clo vatinsr her kid cloved hands, "what is the matter ? I hope Frank isu't in any sort of trouble r" . . "Mv dear." said tho old lady, in a mys terious whisper, "Frank has been entrap ped inveigled iuto the most dreadful en tauglement. Did you ever fancy that he, the most fastidious aud particular of bu man beings, could be determined on mar rvinff a fuctorv cirl ?" Mrs. Randall uttered an exclamation of surprise, and at the same moment a party of Lruests were announced, among whom was Miss Grace Teller, looking rather uioro lovely than usual. . "Well," thought Mrs. Seymour, as her hostess hurried away to welcome the new comers. "Will wonders never cease I Grace Teller at Mrs. Randall's soiree I But I sup pose it is all on account of Mary Elton's uncln, the Judge. Ilere comes Mr. Parker and Cynthia dear me, what a curious mix ture our American society is ; how they will be shocked to meet Grace leller.". Involuntarily she advanced a step or two to witness the meeting.

MISCELLANEOUS. t'lftht llelw ecu ia Ulan and a Lion, Wombwell's menagerie is now at Leeds, England, and the Yorkshire Post, in giving an account of it says :--A strange and dan gerous accident happened when the Messrs. Cross, naturalists, of Liverpool, undertook to forward a huge black named Sahara lion to Scarborough. On its arrival there the animal was at once taken to the roenagerio. All went well until it wus attempted to shift this untamed king of the forest from the cage in which he Lad been forwarded into the den built to hold him at the exhibition. After mauy unsuccessful attempts had been made to move him out of one cago iuto the other, it was at lost determined to tele graph their difficulty, and request the as sistance of Mr. William Cross, who, at once, on receipt of the telegram, took a train for Scarborough. Upon bis arrival there, another trial was made, and after a severe struggle that lasted some hours, the noble brute was at length successfully aud safely penned. But, strange to say, whilst Mr. Cross was receiving the congratulations of the people about him, be inadvertently laid hold of one of the bats of the den. In a moment, the huge animal sprang from his crouching position, and, to the consternation of all beholders, seized tho hand of Mr. Cross in his mouth. It is im possible accurately to describe the scene nt this junction fear seemed to possess every one present. Several strangers who bad been specially invited to witness the shift ing, maguified tho accident of Mr. Cross in to un escape of the lion out of his cage ; thus filled with fear, they rushed out of the me nagerie in great trepidation. The Hon still held Mr. Cross fast by the hand, nor could he be induced to let go his hold, although tempting juuks of beef and cows' hearts were thrown into his cage ; but the roost surprising of all was that, during the whole of the time each was trying to attract the at tention of the lion from him, Mr. Cross ap peared tho least uudisturbed, as, with his eyes fixed upon his captor, ho seemed to bo watching ana waiting patiently tor some ex pected opportunity. x tuning tue lion determined to retain nis hold, and tho pain becoming very severe, Mr. Cross asked one of the keepers to hand him a small bar of iron he was holding ready for use. With this Mr. Cross succeed ed in striking tho brute a t critic blow be tween the eyes. The enraged animal sprang back with a snort, tearing tbe fiesh from his baud, and mutilating ouo ringer so seriously that at first it was thought amputation was an absolute necessity, and was recommended; but Mr. Cross, witu coolness in In in charac teristic, refused all surgical aid ; he thought he wus sufficiently cut up already, and, wrapping his mutilated hand in wet cloths, walked out of the menagerie as if no acci dent had happened ta him, and returned as soon a possible to Liverpool.

Whether asleep or awake, we bhould accustom ourselves to keep the mouth shut ; the advautage in our sleep ing hours is that we dou't snore; we don't have the nightmare ; flies, bugs and spiders dou't crawl down the throat, and we don't tell tales in our dreams ; the benefits in the day time are that it induces a more healthful, deep, full and free action of the luug9, pre vents innumerable chills and colds, and saves many a domestic sorrow.

But in this respect no man should be the guide for another. Some require more heat than others, but there is one rule of universal application a rule which admits of no exceptions, the world over, each person should notice what tem perature keeps him comfortably warm, and thus be a rule to himself.
