WHAT IS A WIFE.
What ia a wife ? A fellow soul
That shares our joys and troubles—
But halvas our pleasures on the whole.
And all our sorrow doubles.
What is a wife? Our reverse side,
<itim shadow; twin existence;
For let good, lack or ill betide
Wo still have one subsistence.
What is a wife ? A plant that twines
Young olives round onr table;
And bids us joy in oar bard lines,
Ahd love them—if we're able.
is—what ? A doable prize;
Mach angel but more Tartar:
Bliss which exalts us in such wise
As martyrdom the martyr.
Our slave while we her will obey;
Our solace when contented;
Our ruin when she has her way;
Our torment when prevented.
Our friend when fickle Fortune smiles;
Our light when noon oppresses; r
Our hope when we have done with fears —
Wet blanket in successes.
What is she ? To sum np, a wife
Is— speaking with urbanity—
The harsh, strong, hitler pill of life,
And blister of humanity.

chapter x. (continued.)
a.
•‘Under this arrangement,” the Baron
ess struck in, laughing, “our good hosts
have passed successfully over their two
steps, and may have themselves ready for
their third.”
“Things have gone happily with them,”
said the Count. “In their case death baa
done with a good will what in others the
consistorial courts do with a very bad
one.”
“Let the dead rest,” said Charlotte,
with a half Serious look.
“Why so,” persevered the Count, “when
we can remember them with honor? They
were generous enough to content them
selves with leas than their number of
years for tbe sake of the larger good
which they could leave behind them.”
“Adas ! that in such cases,” said the
Baroness, with a suppressed sigh, “hap
piness is only bought with the sacrifice
of onr fairest years.”
“Indeed, yes,” answered the Count;
“and it might drive us to despair, if it
were not tbe same with everything in
this world. Nothing goes as we hope.
Children do not fulfill what they prom
ise; young people very seldom —and if;
they keep their word, the world does not
keepjits word with them.” 1
Chari rite, who was delighted that the
conversation had taken a turn at last, re
plied cheerfully;
“Well, then, we must content ourselves
with enjoying what good we are to have
m fragments and pieces, as we can get it;
sad the sooner we can accustom oumlfes
to this the better.”
“Certainly,” the Count answered, “you
100 have bad the enjoyment of very hap
py limes. When I look back upon the
years when yon and El ward were the
loveliest couple at the court, I see noth
ing now to be compared with those bril
liant times, and such magnificent figures.
When you two used to dance together, all
eyes were turned upon you, fastened upon
you, while you saw nothing but each
other.”
“So much has changed since those
days," said Charlotte, “that we can listen
to’such pretty things about ourselves
without our modesty being shocked at
them.”
“I often privately found fault with Ed
ward,” said the Count, ?“for not being
more firm- Those singular parents of his
would certainly have giVen way at list ;
and ten fair years is no trifle to gain.”
“I must take Edward’s part,” struck in
the Baroness. "Chari >tte was not alto
gether faultless —qnt altogether free from
what we must call prudential cousidera
lions;and although she ha 1 a real, hearty
love for Edward, and did in her secret
soul intend to marry him, I can bear wit
ness how sorely she often tried him ; and
it was through this that he was at lucki
ly prevailed upon to leave her and go
abroad, and try to forget her.”
Edward * bowjed to the Baroness, and
seemed grateful f »r her advocacy.
"And then I must add this,” she con
tinued, “in 'excuse f<wr Charlotte, The
man who was at that time suing for her,
had for a long time given proofs of his
constant attachment 10 her; and, when
one came to know aim well, was a far
more loveable person than the rest of you
may like to acknowledge.”
“My dear friend,” the Count rep’ied, a
little pointedly, “confess, now, that he
was not altogether indifferent to your
self, and that Chari »tte had more to fear
from you than from any other rivi.l. I
find it one of the highest traits of women,
that they continue so long in their re
gard for a man, and absence of no
duration will serve to disturb or remove
it."
‘“This fine feature, men possess, per
haps, eveu m ire,” answered the Baroness.
“A’, any rale, I have observed with you.
my dear C »unt. tbit no one has more in
flieuce over ym than a lady In whom
you were once attached. I have seen yoa
tjke more trouble t.> do things when a
certain person has asked you, than the
friend of ibis moment would have ob
tained of you, if she had trie i."
“Such a change as that one must hear
the best way one can.’* replied the Couni.
“Bit as to whrt concerns Caarlotte’s fir.-t
husband, I e-ul-J not endure him, because
BT A CTKIC.
A Novel
he parted so sweet a pair from one anoth
er—-areally pre-deatined pair, who once
brought together, have na reason to fear
the five years; or bethinking Of a second
or third marriage.”^
' “We must try,” Charlotte said, “to
make up for what we then allowed to slip
from na.”
“Aye, and you must keep to that,” said
the Count; “yohr first marriages,” be
continued, with some vehemence, “were
exactly marriages of the true detestable
sort. And, unhappily, marriages genera’-
ly, even the best, have (forgive me for us
ing a strong expression) something awk
ward about them. They destroy the deli
cacy of the relation; everything is made
to rest on the broad certainty out of
which one side or other, at least, is too
apt to make their own advantage. It is
all a matter of course, and they seem on
ly to have got themselves tied together,
that one or the other, or both, may go
their own way the more easily.”
At this moment, Charlotte, who was de
termined once for all that she would put
an end to the conversation, made a' bold
effort at turning it, and succeeded. It
then became more general. She and her
husband and the Captain were able to
take part in It. Even Otliiie had to give
her opinhn); and the dessert was enjoyed
in the happiest humor. It was particu
larly beautiful,, being . composed almost
entirely of the rich summer fruits in ele
gant baskets, with epttgnes of lovely flow
ers arranged in exquisite taste.
The new laying-out of the park came
to be spoken of; and immediately after
dinner they went to look at what was
g< iag on. Oltilie withdrew, under pre
tence of haring household matters to
look to ; in reality, it was to set to work
again at transcribing. The Count fell
into conversation With the Captain, and
Charlotte afterwards joined them. When
they were at the summit of the height,
the Captain good oaturediy ran .back to
fetch the plan, and in his absence the
Cbunt said to Charlotte ;
“He is an exceedingly pleasing person.
He is very well-informed, and his knowl
edge is always ready. His practical pow
er, too, seems methodical and vigorous.
What he Is doing here would be of great
importance in higher sphere.”
Charlotte listened to the Captain’s
praises with an inward delight. She col
lected herself, however f -aod composedly
and clearly confirmed what tbe Count had
said. But she was not a little startled
when he continued:
“This acquaintance falls most oppor
tunely for me. I know of a situation for
which he is perlecily suited, and I shall
be doing the greatest favor to a friend of
mine, a man of high rank, by recommend*,
ing to him a person who is so exactly ev
erything which he desires.”
Charlotte fell as if a thunder strobe had
fallen on her. The Coant-did not observe
- - - -
it; women, being accustomed at all times
to bold themselves in restraint, are always
able, even 1n the m» si extraordinary cas-
es, to maintain an apparent composure ;
J but she beard not a word more of what
; the Count said, though he went on speak
! >nk-
I “When I have made np my mind upon
j a thing.” he added, *T am quick about it.
II have put my letter together already in
j my bead, and I shall write it Immediate
j ly. You can find me some messenger,
! who can ride off with it this evening.”
Charlotte was suffering agonies, Slar
i tied wi h the proposal, and shocked at
herself, she was unable to utter a word.
Happily, the Count continued talking of
his plans for the Captain, the desirable
j blene&s of which was only too apparent
; to Charlotte.
It was lime that the Captain returned.
He came up and unrolled bis design be
fore the Count. But with what changed
eyes Charlotte now looked at the fridnd
whom she was to lose. In her necessity,
she bowed and turned away, and (harried
down to the summer-house. Before she
was half way there, the tears were
streaming from her eyes, and she flung
herself into the narrow room in the little
hermitage, and gave herself up lo an ag
ony, a passion, a despair, of the possibili
ty of which, but a few moments before,
she had not had the slightest conception.
Edward had gone with the Baroness in
the other direction towards the ponds.
This ready witted lady, who liked to be
in the secret about’everything, soon ob
served. in a tew conversational feelers
which she threw out, that Edward was
fluent and free-spoken in praise of Ottilie.
She contrived in the most natural way to
lead him out by degrees so complexly,
that at last she had not a doubt remaining
that here was not nienly an irteipienl
fancy, but a veritable, fulf-grown pas-
sion
Mtrried women, if they have no par
ticular love for one another, yet are si
lently in league together, especially
against young girls. The conse
quences of each an inclination presented
themselves only too quickly to her
world-experienced spirit. Added to
this, she had been already, in the course
of the day, talking to Charlotte about Ot
tii-e; she had disapproved ni her remain
ing in the country, particularly being a
girl of so retiring a character; and she
had proposed to lake Oudie with her to
ihe residence of a friend, who was just
then bestowing great expense on the edu
cation of an only daughter, and who was
only looking about to find some welMie
posed c'mpaaion for her—to pat her in
the place of a second chdi, ami let her
share in every advantage. Charlotte bad
taken lime to consider. But now this
g-mpse of the Baroness into E l* aid’s
THE RADICAL;
heart changed what bad teen bat a sng
gestionat once into a settled determina
tion ; and the more rapidly she made op
her mind about it, themore she seemed to
flatter Edward's wishes. Never was there
any more self possessed person than - this
lady; and to have mastered ourselves in
extraordinary cases, dispose os to treat
even a common case with dissimulation—
it makes na inclined, as we have bad to
do so orach violence to ourselves; to ex
tend oar control over others, and hold
ourselves in a degree compensated in
what we outwardly gain for what we in
wardly have been obliged to, sacrifice. To
this feeling there is nflenjoioed a kind of
secret, spiteful pleasure in the blind, un
conscious ignorance with the vic
tim walks on into a is pot the
immediately doing as we please which we
enjoy, but the thought of the surprise
and exposure which is to follow. And
thus was the B lioness malicious enough
to invite Edward to come with Charlotte
and pay her a visit at the grape-gather
ing ; and, to bis question whether they
might bring Ottiie with them,: to frame
an answer which, if he pleased, he might
interpret to bis wishes.
Edward bad already begun to pour out
bis delight at the beautiful scenery, the
broad river, the bills, the rocks, the vine
yard, the old castle, the water-parties, and
the jahibe at the grape gathering, the
wine-pressing, etc., in all ot which, in
the innocence of bis heart, he was only
exuberating in the anticipation of the im
pression which these scenes were to make
on the fresh spirit of Ottilie. At this mo
ment they saw her approaching, and the
Baroness said quickly to Edward, that be
had better say nothing to her of this in
tended autumn expedition—things which
we set our heart upon so long before, so
often failing to come to paas.ffEdward
gave bis promise; but he obliged bis
companion to move more quickly to meet
her; and at last, when they came very
cbse, be ran several steps in advance. A
heartfelt happiness expressed itself in bis
whole being. He kissed herhaod as be
pressed into it a nosegay of wild flowers,
w hich he had gathered on the way.
The Birooesa felt bitter to the heart at
the sight of it. At the same time that
she was able to disapprove of what was
really objectionable in this affection, she
could oot bear to see what was sweet and
beautiful in it thrown away up3n a poor
paltry girl.
When th y bad collected again at the
supper table, an entirely different temper
was spread over the party. The Count,
who bad in the meantime written bis let*
ter and dispatched a messenger with it,
occupied himself with the Captain, whom
he bad been drawing out more and more
~»spending the whole evening at hissidp.
talking of serious matters.
ess, who sat on the Count's*, right* fSund
but small amusement in this;-nor didßd
ward findany more. The Utter, Jrasl)e*
cause he was thirsty, and then because be
was excited, did not spare the wine, and
attached himself himself entirely to Ot
tilia, whom he had made sit by him. On
the other side, next to the Captain, sot
Charlotte; for her it was hard, it was al
most impossible, to conceal the emotion
under which she was suffering.
The Baroness had sufficient lime to
make * her observations at leisure. She
perceived Charlotte's uneasiness, and oc*
cupied as she was with Edward’s passion
for Ottilie, she easily satisfied herself that
her abstraction and distress were owing
to her husband’s behavior; and she set
herself to consider in which way she
could best compass her her ends.
Supper was over, and the party remain
ed divided. The Count, whose object was
to probe the Captain to the bottom, bad
to try many tarns before he could arrive
at what he wished with so quiet, so Utile
vain, but so exceedingly laconic a person.
They walked up and down together on
one s-ide of the saloon, while Edward,
excited with wine and hope, was laugh
ing with Ottilie at a wind >w v and Char
lotte and the Btrouess were walking
backwards and forwards, without speak
iag, on the other side. Their being so
silent, and their standing about in this
uneasy, listless way. bad its effect at last
in- breaking up the rest of the parly.
The ladies withdrew to the rooms, the
gentlemen to the other wing of the cas
tle; and so this day appeared to be con
eluded.
TO BE CONTINUED.
An Irishman who bad jasi landed, went
to see bis sister who was married to a
Yankee. Tbe couple lived very happily
together, and when Pal came, the gentle
man took him over his place to show it to
him. Pat, at the evidences of prosperi
ty, said to bis brother in-liw ;
“Begnrra, you are very happy here
with this fine property to Uve on ; me
sister bed good luck, tutirely, so she bed,
in getting you tor a husband.”
‘‘Ah. yes,” responded the married man,
“we would be very happy but for one
thing.”
“And what’s that?” asked Pat. •
“Ah, Pat,” returned the gentleman
“I am sorry to say that we have no cbil
dren.
“No children I” exclaimed Pat; “thin,
begorra, it’s not my sister's fault, for she
had two before she left Ireland, and that
is the raisen me father sint her to Ameri
ca!”
Thebe was a row at Oconto, Wisconsin*
lately, in which a Bohemian was stabbed
only eighteen times He was at iced in
life, but in death he is sadly divided.
