have become all at onee supernatural
ly sharp, so that not even a whisper
to my disparagement escaped him;
and hefaithfully imparted to' me
whatever he heard. My equanimity
was gradually disturb, anti, at last,
when Jones asked in a tone of horror,
`Did yon hear what that fellow said?'
I answered, angrily, *No I. did 'not;
and I doh't want to know.'
But Jones, having, perhaps, a kee
ner regard for his friend's honor than
for his own, rejoined, .'Well old fel
low,there's a limit to everythinc,and
! don't think you ought tostand Mat.'
I inwardly wontiered whether
Jones himself, in position , would not
have stood that, and much more,
without showing his valor; but with
a
groan I asked, 'W ell, whatdid ho
sa ?'
'O, my dear fellow,' replied
with a snigger, '1 shouldn't like to
repeat it.'
'Can you point the man out?' I in
quired.
This Jones did with surprising
alacrity.
'Let us go back and ask him, then,'
said, tryingto appear cool and com
fortable.
The man whom Joues pointed out'
was dressed as a gentleman, was con
siderable bigger in every way than 1,
and was sitting between two wearers
of bonnets, whom we may charitably
assume to have been his wife and his
mother4u-law. At nay approach he
showed some slight perturlration,
which led inelo hope that lie suffered,
as I-do, from a constitutional weak
nem (nothing more, .1 assure you,)
which some people mistake for what
is - I certain circles known as 'the
.s.' I was encouraged therefore,
go ask with some haughtinesis wheth
er he would oblige me by repeating
the remark be haul lately , rtddrmed
to me. lie obliged me with a readi
nks and mottle* which slightly
altered my opanionvabout his con
stitutional weakne s s; and which al
most reduced me to an awkward si
lence which Jones might hayeiraisin
terpreted. Fortunately, however, I
was inspired to make a general re
mark about thedifficulty of properly
kicking any gentleman who happens
to be sitting upon a bench; and the
remark, notwithstanding its , truth
load generality, so far from meeting
with his approbation, aimed him to
start up In a fury, threaten damage
to my nose with his left list, and seise
ray precious bouquet with his right
'hand. Thereupen flashed across nay
mind a piece of advice to the effect
that ',he threatened about& never
wait for aceramplishment,, but should
always take the initiative;' said so,
maddened at the dedruction which
was - being wrought upon my bou
quet, I dashed my 'clenched right
hand into the face of my adversary;
who staggered 'back against a tree,
and left upon my white gloYe a red
stain.
There were shrieks from tne sup- .

demanded of Jones what had become

Jones had pinch idtuifi of a Joke r

no doubt, been csrriedoffssett trophy

The dreaded • next morning came,

she could nut have looked more

'Mr. Brown,' the servant had added,
'with the cholera morbus.'
Whaterei-tave you , been dein? ,
she asked, fof the scratch WI-amuse

I felt inclined to illy `Please ma'am,

'Why not? I thought it was in

'You haven't your coat-pocket?'
`No • I will tell you all about it and

And without screening myself be

Arabella listened without interrup

had finisinsi she rose from her chair,
whilst indignation limbed front her

and, as she wain turotoplisiad ska

never appears to better ad vautag hum
when she IA engaged In skating; and
I had always thought Lettie was a
very pretty girt and had betsane
quite utptivided by her charms ; ,but
one never appeared half so lovely w
nuo as upon this occsaion and as we
went, boldly forward, or circled in
the most gracelin manner, you may
depend that 1 enjoyed myself highly
and think she did also.

lower part of there. There Is a sin
gle channel through which steamers
are sometimes piloted at favorable
Swore+ of the year; hut to attempt
to . pass them out of the channel, or
without skilful pilotage, would be
the maddest of kitty.
- There was a considerible number
of skaters out with us • but we struck
out boldly for the cen tre of .the river
and Soon were at a cuusidenthie dis.
tame from them. We did not stop
until within a few rods of the • open
water, knowing as we did that the
la) was sufficiently strong to bear us.
We had skated three or four miles,
anti felt the necessity of resting a few
moments and accordingly stood for a
while ga zing upon the blue waters of
the, flowing river and the surround
'lag scenery. which is very tine. 1
rather think that I aist tin occasional
glance at the featuresof my fair com
panion, which were ntdieut with the
glow of excitement occasioned by the
exercise of stakting. We stood there
rather longer than we intended to,
for we carried on an animated con
versation and the. moments passed
swiftly. At length Lettle suddenly
remarked :
'Look where we are.'
'1 see,' said I, compiehending her
meaning. •'Had you forgotten it?'
'We are farther down the river
than we were when we stopped.
We were then opposite to that wind
mill,' pointing to the ruins of one
that stood upon the opposite bank, a
relic of the last century, about hall
a mile above us.
Somewhat surprised at this, I look
ed around us, and was-not long in dim
covering thwcauseof the change., We
wereafloat 1.
The ice upon which we *ere stand
•lng had become separated from the
main body and carried away by the
action of the current. As it was a
large piece, being at loot one-eighth
of a mile in extent, I felt no very
great apprehension •in regard to our
safety, thinking it would soon float
against the edge of the. firm ice, so
that we could easily get oaf it, and so
have the occurrence to remember on
ly as a pleasant adventure. I assured
Lettle that-there was no danger,and
we ps4leuily awaited for the current
to release us from captivity from our'
floating, island, continuing our con
versation as cheerfully as before. My
expectations were not fulfilled, foe in
about half an hour we had reached
the open river where the rapidity of
the current had either carried away
the ice or prevented its formation,
and now the fearful truth flushed up
on my mind that we were going di
rectly toward the Gallup Rapids, and
at a rate Butt would bring us to them
in less than an hour.
Louie must have noticed the ex
prersion of my eountenapee, for she
clung to me and saki :
'Do not fair to alarm me by telling
inn the worst. Are we in very great
danger?' -
'Pm afraid we are,' I replied ; 'but
keep up your courage end we will
hope for the best."
- Eagerly I scanned the surrounding
land, hoping to observe some one
whose attention,l might attract. 1
skater' around the edges of the ice and
helloed as loudly as possible, but the
wind made it impowible for me to
be heard at any great distance, and
we were unnoticed. It now blew
quite violently, and caused the . weter
to run over the ice ' .rentieriug it quite
difficult for us to stand up, and break
ing up the lee we were on, rendering
it still smaller and threatening to
hasten our doom. On we drilled,
Mope fading as we passed onward,and
the voice of death seemed to sound in
the distant roar of the rapids that was
now to be faintly heard in the dis
tance. I gave up all hope of attract
ing attention, and returned to Lettie.
'Be as firm and brave as peorible,'
said 1, addressing her, 'for unless
there is a special Intervention in our
behalf, I do not Fee what can save
from running into the rapids. The

quired, her tone indicating that she
did riot expect an aMmurtivean.swer.
'I See no possible chance of escape,'
I replied, and our speed continued to
Increase, and louder grew the roar of
the rapids as we neared them.
'How long will it be before weshall
11,1411 them?' she asked.
'We cannot havebut a few minutes
longer to stand on earth,' I replied.
' She leaned upon me, and I felt
stronger when supportirig her than
when alone. I saw no w' to avert
our fete, and e x pected to be in etern
ity in a short time. Although life
was dear to me, I would most will
ingly have relinquished it, if by so
doing hers could have been saved.
Yet the fate that decreed that we
were to die together, robbed it of all
its terrors as far as I was concerned.
It was then I realized how much I
loved her, and I felt that I could not
die without telling her of it.

at the rapids. but I cannot die with

me: If we are spared I would other

Although I was at a ootosiderablo

I knew that the boatmen would not

upon the edge of the rapids. The

of skillful voyagers, ' coming rapidly

seemed to clip over the waves; it
handy seemed to gain on me. The
water dashed over the, cake of ice,
and I was wet and almost insensible.
The pursuing craft reached me just
