'lielonging to such a nice fami.y, an heir ess so beautiful I' The continued words of the speaker reach ed Howard Manly's ear, but evidentlr Hoso Forrester did not hear them. She turned with a sparkling mule to her hostess, and was still talking with her of the photographs, when Mr. Clinton brought Howard Manly up lor an introduction. As she rose in the full light it revealed that she was very young, scarcely 20, yet tall of stature and with a certain marked re poao of manlier. Her beauty was not conspicuous sho was too pale; yet Mauley r-aiv how perfectly cut was eery feature, how clear the dark gray eyes, how dark the curling lashe. The lips shut over teeth as white as milk, and the contour of the face was a perfect oval. The girl's natural and spontaneous man ner told that she gave the young man, at first, no unusual attention. Little by little she obseived him tho fair hair shadowing the white forehead, the dark blue, penetra ting eyes, the ununial grace of figure, the faultless dress. Her manner was so cordial and friendly and unmistakably charming that Mauley racked his brains fur the chance of a next meeting, but was obliged to abandon it when Miss Forrester was joined by her brother. She left the room, but inlautly he thanked his tood fortune, at the findiug of a ruby scarf pin which he recoguized as hers. It was easy to decide the ornament too valua ble to be entrusted to a messenger. It was a presumption which he would mannge with ease to call upon and restore it. Ui.se was not a belle. She had too much depth and passion of natura to ever be a so ciety woman; but she had her admirers, and out of them she soon cliu-e .Mauley Sho could not te'l why, but his looks, words, every act had a charm for her,and the eloiiucut blood tinging hfr cold cheek at his Approach told him the story of his power. Ho was a proud man he might well have be'ti a happy mie but hoolttu bore an air of noticeable wearine-s and deprcs-iou. This in aiismr lu Hose's gentle inquiries, he at tllbutid to ill-health. Spring was opening with its vivid sun- shin", its balmy air, and Uose was very lia py. It semied to her that it was the pki- aiit inllufiice of the season which made her laily ways s.i Wfh'; the tender colors, sights ami sound surrounding hor daily walk with Manley in the puk, which made them so enj ivable. IVthaps they lulped In make hf-r spirit rmg m that she dared hay to hi rell, '1 love hini!' aud i-ay it without reservation or fur she knew! that it was but a little while much she fir.t met him, and of his past history and muih ot his present she knew nothing. No; she feared nothing for herself. To lue and be surrounded with tenderness was happiness enough for her; she asked for no more. Yet some instinct or trace of worldly wisdom made her withhold her confidence from her brother, who was her guardian; he knew nothing of tho intimacy. From the night the had first met Manley at Mrs, Clinton's party, she never knew any one who knew him intimately. He told her (hat he had no living female relative no homo. He evidently had means at command, and procured for her, with an ingenuity which was almost geuuine.the tarest and most beau tiful gifts, Her delighted reception of them seemed n mutualjoy which prevented any possible feelings of obligaiiou tm her side. In truth, full ot the passionate impulses of youth, she was deaf, dumb aud blind for anything but thefulluess of the present. Her brother came into the music room, where she hat at the plauo, dreamily play' lug, one day 'lto.e, will you give me yourattentloti fur a few minutes?' lie held un open letter In his baud, lie was twenty years older than herself, a world. wUo prudent man, 'Dr. Wingrovo proposes for your hand. You are aware that It will be a very admlta bio match, are you not? ' lton had n strange, stunned feeling, yet she bowed faintly. From childhood she had been greatly under her brother's control. '1 should like to write him favorably, Uose. Havo you any objection?' 'I-I-' She fouud herself upon her feet shivering In the May sunshine. 'I would have a little time, lM-rln." 'Certainly, if you wish,' though his brow slightly clouded. 'The doctor will not prob ably look for an immediate answer.' Tno next moment Hose had escaped from tho room, nud was locked in her chamber. During tho next two hours she hardly knew what she was doing, She found her self walking tho floor, and wringing her hands. At last she stopped short, with a sense nf pride. 'There is no leasou no reason in the world I dare tell my brother why I will not marry Dr. Wlngrove.' Dr. Wlngrove was the noblest and gen tlest nfmen, singularly handsome, wealthy, and highly connected, and barely 30 years of age. He had known her sinco childhood, never mado love to her, but now that tho of fer of marriage had como to her, she real ized, Bomehow, that he bad always loved her. Hose was conscious of a racking pain in her temples, at last. The chamber seemed stilling. Catching up her cloak and hat, and tying a veil of heavy black lace across her (ace she weut out into the street. She soon walkul her-elf weary, without abating her painful sensation, aud, returning to the street lu which her residence was situ situated, entered the public inclosure of trees and shrubbery which ornamented the square. tV fountain bubbled in the centre; the stone vases of (lowers sent (a sweet perfume upon the air. So close to her home, she had no timidity, and sinking upon a circular seat surrounding a large tree, she gave herself up to her ab sorbing thoughts. It was soon dark, yet she had not stirred. In her black dress, in shadow, she was quite unnoticed by two men who crossed tho street from the opposite side and sat down behind her She would then have arisen and glided away quietly, but that the movement was ar rested by Howard Mauley's voice. 'How soon?' he asked. 'Now, my dear brother, I'll stand tho risk- no longer. I'yo passed false money enough tor you to shut me up for the restol my lite, and I value my liberty, singularly enough,' sueeringly. Well, well, I am willing enough to go, 1' red. Heaven knows that I am as sick of the business as you can be. Coining isn't all prosperity. In a new country I should feel like another man. Hut ' 'The heiress?' 'I am sure of her. Hut I don't like to urge a hasty marriage' She has an old fox of a brother, who maybe inconveniently curious regarding my affairs. If we could wait till the autumn, now, I might enter some re spectable business.' 'I tell you it won't do.' Iloth rose in their excitement aud invol untarily walked awayl Plainly, under the gaslight, Hose saw How ard Manley aud his brother pass under tho slrtet. They were coiners. More dead than alive, she crept into the house. Hut Hose was )0t a weak girl. He fore midnight she had placed Howard's gift) in a close package and sealed them with a note, briefly stating that she had overheard the conversation in the park. The next morniug it was dispatched. As soon as her brother broached the sub ject of Dr. Wingrnve's proposal, she, asked to have the latter call upon her. He came, with countenance so high of pur pose, witli eyes so full of truth, that she in voluntarily contrasted Howard's old, reli cent face with it; but she told Mr. Wingrove all the truth. 'Perhaps it was wrong but I loved him loved him purely and my heart is torn and bleeding. I am wild with a secret pain which 1 must hide from every one. If I had never known him! Hut I cannot imagine that. This terrible experience has changed mf; lam not the care-free, happy, trusting girl you knew. I cannot love you; but pity me be my friend, I inu-l talk to some one, and oh, there is no one in the world ui kind as you!' Was Dr. Wingrove piqued by this recep tion of his proposal? Jfo, he was tro gm- erous and tender hea'lid for that. 'Poor child!' he said, in a time so soothing that, for the first time, Uose gave way to a relieving hurst of pa-shnate weeping. 'What shall I do? What do you think of me?' she asked at lat. 'Wh will wait, and I think that 1 love you,' he answered quietly. So two kept the sfcret of Hose's sorrow more easily than one, and though her heart still knew the pai g nf grief for a time, the milliner brought change of scene which wa helpful to a spirit nally brave and inno cent. Dr. Wingrnvi" j lined Hoe and her broth er at the seahore, to find brightness in the younz girl's eyes again, and to the latter It was sweet to call so kind aud noble a man friend. Together they rimh.il tho rocks, drank in tho freo air, watched the sunsets and the sea. Of old they had been congenial, and now they semied more happily so. I here is usually a sidness about first love, and perhaps is expected of nn to record i!ih death of my heroine of a broken heart, but I must toll the truth. In the autumn Uose married Dr. Win grove. She is one of the happiest wives in the world. The fust love fell from her liko a false blossom, while the second ripened richest fruit.

The long-held ami only recently rejected theory, that the shoals of fihcs moved in n vast mass along tho coast, seudlngoff detach ments ir.(o each river as lliey pass lis month, is lo bo attributed to John Gilpin and some other authorities, who have written llowing ly on the subject. The recent careful inves tigations of naturalists indicate that the anadromous fishes, those entering the rivers and bodies of freh water from the sea, do not have an extended range lu tho occan.and that thejtiyer's colony remains, after return ing, in tho deep waters opposite their riv er. Tho motive fot the movement of theso shoals of anadromous fishes, or rather how it is incited, has scarcely been explained Tho life of the fishes has always been a mys tery. It Is not a search for food, as Ihey do not eat while in fresh water ; tho opening of hundreds of stomachs will fail to find food present. It is an easy disposal of the ques tion as to how each colony iccogniza its na tivo river to say that 'it is instinctive.' So it i, also, when the butcher's horse recoguizes the familiar gales ; but we have some evi deuce as to what senso ho uses. Tho fi-hes. probably, prompted by functional disturbance from tho tumid ovaries and spermaries, aie incited to movement. The course of the sea unmarked as they are, aro within eacl- colo ny's limit, their habitual pathways. An un erring capacity in the fish far finding its own tivcr may be more than thit which guide tho hermit-crab to the tiaHca. The latter goes to hide its sensitive body, with an appa rent nervous trepidation at its unprotected condition. Tho former, with au uneasiness of body from the functional changes it is un dergoing, is impelled to activity. The trans mittcd habit of ascending the stream Is, as it were, blended and alloyed with the substance of the nerves, and roused by its condition, carries it, without conscious purpose into tho riycr of its progenitors and its own. The impulses of the fish are only in a slightly more complicated series than thoso of the crab. That it should be tho instinct for a specific stream, established through inhen- tance of many generations, is easier to under stand than that it is a sort of memory or the place of its immature life, as the theory of fish-culture makes it, and as observation seems to sustain. In the waters of the Dela ware, where thero were no salmon originally, the young salmon placed iu liusbkill creek, returned alter five years, and were taken, not only in the Delaware Itivcr, but the laige number in tho neighborhood of Hushkill crock It is not essential that all the fishes should have this impelling inilucuco, whatev er it may bo, as like gregarious animals and birds they (lock together, following the lead ership of whichever for the time takes it. Tho idea is sugge-ted that the senses may be the guiding agent, that a fish goes nosing along the coast, or tasting the streams, until it recognizes its own Tho convexity of the cornea must afford the fishes a very limited raugc of vision. The supposed dullness of the sense of smell and of taste iu fishes might alone dispose of the suggestion that these ate employed. The following occurrence, how ever, would seem to decida to the contrary. The Hussian Hiver, emptying into tho Paci fic, north of San Francisco, had its mouth en tirely closed by the waves during a storm The colony ol salmon made their yearly mi gration from the deep waters toward the mouth of the river, and many of them raced through tho surf, and lauded high and dry on the sand that walled them out from their na tive river. The migration of the salmon into some of the Pacific rivers is a fieuzicd advauce over shoals, tapids, and ca-cadts, lar into thiu streams aud brooks, where they unite bat tered and weary, to nccouipli.-h their exhau-t ive reproductive labors, and drop back, the spoil of the current, dead and dying, tow aid the sea.

Tho experiment made this year by the Delaware Hect Sugar Company at their mill, at Hivcrside, on the Delaware, a few milts above Wilmington, has proven sufficiently satisfactory to induce the Company to en large their wntks. Their present bulldlng.ln which all the tiperati'iiis ol making sugar froni beets was carried on, is CO by CO feet, and now contracts havo been entered into for the erection of an additional brick buil ding near tho other, which will be CO by 142 feet, aud two stories high. The new buil ding will have in It the machinery necessary for making Iho syrups, and the old building will be used exclusively for making the sugar. Last year the beets gro-vn from seed dis tributed by the Commission, appointed by the slate, to encourage Ihe enterprise, amounted to about 800 tons, of which tho Delaware Heel Sugar Co. purchased GOO tons iood for cattle. The amount of land culti vated tri;row them was about !K) acres. This year the company have taken the matter iu their own hands, and during the past winter have distributed among farmers In Delaware, Xew Jersey aud Pennsylvania a circular to the ell'tct that they would con tract for sugar beets at the following prices. For those testing 8 per cent of sugar, 13.50 per ton of 2240 pounds; 8 und up to 9 per cent. 4 per ton; '.) to 10 per cent. $4.50 per ton; 10 to 11 per cent. 55 per ton; 11 to 12 d. 5 5(.l per ton; 12 to 13 do. CO per ton i 13 lo 14 per cent, and abovo t" per ton. The contract provides that the farmers shall pur chase the seed from the company, all of which was purchased in Germany nt 2o cents per pound,14 pounds being required for each acre. Already 110 farmers.representing 325 acres have contracted to grow the beets, and it is expected that before the 1st of May, the us ual time for planting, nearly 500 acres will be obtained. The average product to the acre is said lobeaboutJlO tons.though as large as lfi tons have been gathered, so that the com patiyTexpcct to set the coming season from four to five thousand tons. Of the farmers who have already contract ed,nllresidc in'.Del aware except seven in N'ew Jersey and sev en in Maryland. In addition the Company intend to plant IromCO to 1000 acres of land near their mill. The state Commissioners, who still have a portion of the $1500 appropriated by the state ol Delaware to encourage the growth of sugar beets, have agreed to pay premiums to the farmers whose beets produce the great est amount of sugar. The highest premium will be $100. Ono farmer,near Odessa, Delaware, raised lat year on one acre of land sixteen tons of beets, for which $01 were received. The to tal cost.for labor, seed &c, in raising the beets was $20. The Sugar beet Company have issued in a neatly printed form directions for selecting suitable soil, the preparation of the land, the kind of manures to be used, the tima for planting, how to plant, the first cultivation, thinning, when to harvestVc.
