Mrs. Ridley, who hud once been liouse keejtcr iu a grand Pouglikeepsie family,and now LIVortiou of her duties. "I)o not try," said Mark, gaily. Ktiprasia Hoggs, the dressmaker, and Kitty Plume, who woverag-cnrjietH, swelled the ranks of wai trusses, as soon as they learn ed that Miss Sevier was going into the kitchen, and that Arethusa herself was to give out the linen aud help with the des serts ; old Mrs. Jenkins came as dishwash er. "Anything to earn an honest penny," said she. And the waitresses, when oft" meal-duty, were to act as charnls-rmaids, under Are thusa's own direction, so that by night-fall the new SLIFLF of attendants were all on ser vice. "Well," cried Arethusa, gaily, to MRS. llinns, "what do you think now ?" "I dunno what to think," said the land lady, with a sigh of Intense relief. "It does seem as if you hail witches' blood in your veins, Arethusa." The little band of industry worked well under its enthusiastic young leader. Of course then- were some "hitches," some awk ward Besses, a few blunders. What housekeeping machinery was ever entirely devoid thereof ? Hut on the whole it was a distinguished success. Gorge House had never known a better season. Mrs. Ilinns's treasury hail never represented a more sat isfactory balance. And when the btwnlers, driven by keen Octols-r frosts, weut away, many of them had engaged rooms for the ensuing season. Mrs. Hiuns hugged and kissed Arethusa, with the heartiest good will. "My dear," said she, "if ever a fat old woman as dou't deserve it had a guardian angel, you're mine. And you'll be here next season to help me ? Promise, now I" "Oh, I couldn't promise !" faltered Are thusa. "I am going to Europe next sum mer, with — with Mr. Sevier.' For one second, Mrs. Ilinus was struck dumb. "I might have, know 11 it," said she, re covering herself at last. "There wasn't never anything going on, hut Mark some how always got mixed up with it. He's the handsomest fellow hcrcaltoutn, as you are the prettiest girl. I hate to lose you ; but 1 can'T find it in my heart to grudge your good luck ; and 1 must try and get along without you as best I can next sum mer, hut 1 do hope to gracious that 1 shan't have no more strikes. — Helen Forrest (J rare*.

Origin of the Haying "And It Wasn't a Day for Ducks, Either.*' In 1 mm, n year before the war, a party of Northern Illinois hunterslibsltheniaelvoa to the lukes of Minnesota for An annual duck limit of a few weeks, making the journey to Ht. I'aul, which was at that time hut little more than a frontier village, hy a steamer from Dubuque, la. AIIIOIIK T lie party was n eliap natimtl Trail x, a powerful liar, hilt a jolly Koohiiuttired fellow withal, whose predominant weakness was readily excused, if not entirely overlooked, by those who knew Idm well, Al>e, that living his first name, seemed to struggle more recklessly and naturally with the truth when talking aitout his prowess as a limit *r of game thau on any other subject, flue day, as the steamer was plowng its way through Lake Pepin, a number of the male passengers were Heated forward oil the boiler deck in little knots passing the time away in con versation. Abe was a prominent figure in one of the groups and li.ul already astonish ed himself fairly by the whop|Moiinds apiece, wouldn't they ?' cas ually remarked the llurlington man, as he kept on iitakiug characters with his pencil. *1 should say tliey would," remarked the uususjiectiiig Abe. 'Well, thau,' said the persistent querist, 'you killed just fOO pounds of ducks, and if you can tell me how one man was able to lug that weight seven miles, and carry a gun at the same time, you can do some thing that uo other liar in the Northwest can match.' Abe reflected a minute, and with 'That's a whopper, isn't it, gentlemen ?' he invited the whole party iu to the bar to take some thing at his expense. The remark, 'And it wasn't a good day for ducks, either,' was uscl bauteringly on Traux during the remainder of the trip, and in time it became common on tbe Mississip pi, w hence it spread uutil it became one of the proverbial Americanisms of the times. Mexican Criminals. Tin- criminal classes iu Mexico are among the most accomplished artists in their line to be found anywhere on the face of the earth, and possess, moreover, a marvellous power of simulating innocence, which ena bb-s thein to impose upon the most incredu lous. They employ the latter faculty to great advantage in securing situations as servants, in which capacity they find ample sooiK- for their genius. If you detect them in thieving and discharge or puuish them their vindictments knows no bounds, and they will boldly threaten future vengeance. Nor are they slow in concocting Bchemes to that end with sundry gentlemen of the gar rote or stiletto, who—outwardly as respect able as anybody—prowl the streets nightly in the interests of their employers. The pleasant possibilities are that some fine eve ning when you least expect it—perhaps as you are returning from the opera, humming a favorite morceau, or revolving sweet plans for love or lucre, such fancies will be disjielled by a sudden rain of cudgels upon your devoted head, or, worse yet, by the keen thrust of a naliaja into the back of your claw-hammer coat just between the shoulders. If you be not killed outright and yell for the police, the chances are ten to one (you being a foreigner) that the as sassins will assert, in voluble Spanish, that you attempted to murder them, and the po lice will finish wliat they failed to accom plish.—[Philadelphia Kecord.J Too Late to Make Remarks. A wagon loaded with wood and drawn by a poor old horse, driven by a negro, was standing on Montcalm street the other day when a pedestrian stopped and said : 'My colored friend, did you ever hear of transmigration ?' •No, sah. Is it suthin' new V 'Not very ; it is the theory that man, after death, takes some other form.' 'Might turn into a hoss, eh ?' 'That's it; you might turn into a poor old horse like this, and be over worked and ill treated, as this one evidently is. Just back there a little way I saw yon beat bim with tbe butt of tbe whip.' 'Yes, I did ; but you look heab. I want to tell ye right heab and now, dat if I turn into an old boss,an' doan' kickde dashboard in de fuss time I've struck, I won't bev nuffin' to say no moab.

'Oh, I am sure it is very much later than that,' she said, sweetly and innocently, and then he went away with a hideous sus picion in his manly bosom.

Ao old chief in the detective service in this and many other states, told one of onr reporters, yesterday, that the Pinkerton national dctectivo agency was now employing a great many women as operatives, often sending them as far as New Mexico and the far southwest to get evidence of the most difficult nature to ascertain. He says, in fact, that the Pinkertons have found, in their long experience in this business,that there are many cases in which the patient search, untiring energy, and almost fruitless sagacity of the most experienced detectives a vail nothing while an experienced woman operative, with the use of a little tact and finesse, can readily as. certain the clew and proof desired. % Tbe methods of female detectives vary entirely with tbe circumstances surrounding tbe case, and none but those who have been thoroughly tried and proven are ever employed by the Pinkertons. "Now," said tbe old chief,"speaking on the subject reminds me of somethiog I have to laugh about. There was in tbe city a short time since, a lady who called herself if I remember aright, Angeline St. Cyr, or something of that sort. She was dressed to & queen's taste and wore a pair of $2,000 diamond ear drops, and jewelry enough to show she bad plenty of money at ber com mand. She had a handsome figure, and ber clothes fitted so elegantly, and she dressed in such perfect taste, that no one who saw her dcubted that she was some wealthy gentleman's daughter. She boarded at a quiet house oo one of tbe sides of the streets with a highly respectable family, and conducted herself io tbe most ladylike manner, observing all tbe proprieties. "What I am going to tell yon now will cause an interest to be taken in the matter locally, for there are many in this city who will recognise the portrait of Miss Angeline St Cyr: She was a very tall, stylish young lady, wore a profusion of bangs and back bair, bonnet of tbe small close fitting variety, and was generally dressed for tbe street in a French gray silk walking dress, and tippet or cape (ldon'tknow the name of it exactly,) that seemed to consist almost entirely of jet beads. She generally carried a large poeketbook in ber band, or wore it swung around ber shoulders with a strap. "Now, plenty of people who know this lady well, will read 'this article, and if any one of them ever ascertained her business in Nashville, or saw her do anything unbecoming a perfect lady, I would be surprised to hear it; and yet I had enough business with her to know just about what she was doing. Notwithstanding this, she came here in the employment of some very prominent parties, got the in formation she desired, communicated ber progress to the employer from day to day, and when she left here kissed &U ber lady friends goodbye, telling them she was going to Chicago. Tbey have never heard from her since and never will, unless in the coarse of ber employment she is sent here a gain. ' I understood,'* said the old chief "tbat she got SBOOO reward, io addi tion to her $4 per diem and expenses for the job, and I don't believe there is a man, or less clever woman, who could have worked up the case at aIL She is io New Mexico now, and I understand she is successfully follow ing her occupation —Nashville A merican. A Singular Circumstance. "The most singular case of deafness I've ever had anything to do with," said the family physician, "is that of a woman up on a Fremont Place. She has such a frightful noise in her head that she can't hear a thing except when she's in a herdic.when tbe rattle of the vehicle sort of drowns tbe noise in her head, and she can then hear as well as ever She observed this pe culiarity of ber affliction,and what did she do the other night but bring home a watchman's rattle and a pair of cymbals. She didn't say anything until ber husband came home and sat down to dinner. He began to ask tbe blessing, and she wishing to bear his remarks began to bang away on the cymbals. He stopped right in the midst of his devotions, and asked her wratbfully if she was craty, to which she responded by whooping It up a little louder, whereupon be rush ed over to my house and said bis wife was a raving lunatic. I went back with bim to try and fix up matters, but just as soon as I opened my mouth she let fly with the watchman's rattle. The outcome of it is tbat my friend gets his meals down town and spends his evenings at the City Club, while his wife, armed with her orches tra, goes calling on her neighbors, and fools the children into belieying that the circns Las come again."— Buffalo Courier.
