So Mr. Doxtcr wont to meet tho
Count, having mado tip Ids mind to
put Ills nicco's plan into operation. Tho
interview was brief. Tho Count nvow.
cd his devotion to Miss Annio Doxtor,
nnd formally asked for her hand. Dex
ter, whoso rcpiignanco to tho fascinat
ing foreigner rather increased than di
minished, point blank refused to en
tertain tho proposal. Tho Count wax
ed eloquent and expostulatory s en
largcd upon tho splendor of his fam
ily and tho extent of his possessions 1
went oven so far as lo prcuttco n num
ber of papers which established his
identity beyond all reasonable doubt,
and invited Mr. Doxter to como into
his private room and inspect a quanli
ty of foreign orders and patonts of
nobility. But tlio American was ob
durate, and, seeing that all his plead
ing was in Vain, tlio Count went off in
n terriblo rago.
The next few days Wore somewhat
trying, both for uncle and niece. As
soon as Miss AiiDio heard of the dread
ful news of her lover's rejection she
attacked her guardian with every
species of argument nnd abuse she
could invent, and was only pacified by
tho threat that ho would discloso her
identity. Failing to mako nn impres
sion upon him sho resorted to Clnrn,
whom sho pestered for her cood olli
ces, and reproached bitterly for hnving
mnrricd her prospects in Hie.
"My dear Annie," protested Clara,
"I assure you it ha? tiothitifto do with
me. I bhould bo delighted to sec you
tho Countess of Splitzentoff. Undo
takes suchjvtolent dislikes, you know.
If I wero you I should elope ; lie will
bo sure to como round afterward."
"My dear Clara, what a magnificent
idea !" cried Annie, embracing her ef-
lusivclv.
As tho days passed tho love-lorn
young ladj's temper improved mater
ially; tho Count was as devoted as ever
in his attention, though less obtrusive,
and tlio Doxters, undo and niece, pro
fessed lo tako no notice of tho aff.ur.
Tho St. Legcr week came on, and the
hotels were crowded to suffocation.
Tho nicht beforo tho great race thero
was n ball at the ltogalia sf unusual

"1 stipposo vou are coing to-night,
Annie?" inquired Clara
"Yes, with Mrs. Mungo; and I havo
a great favor to ask perhaps it may

"What is it?
"I want you to lend tno your dia
monds ; I am so anxious to look well
to-night.''
"Oh, yes, you may have them." nu
swered Clara, smilingly. "Don't
lorget to leavo tliem behind, though!"
So Miss Annie went to tho ball ar
raved in Miss Dcxter's iowcls, and
naturally enjoyed herself immense
Tho next dav nearly every one in
the hotel went off to Doncaster. The
Scarborough air had done Clara so
much good that sho determined to ac

pleaded fatigno and a bad headache,

Arriving on the course, Dexter dis

"I beg your pardon, sore,'' said some
ono with a strong foreign aecont, "but

"That's so! said Doxtcr, turning

Two men stood before him, ono tall

Doxtcr fancied ho had seen tho tall

his faco'wns wrinkled and worn, as if

"Blind Tom," the Slave.
When Charity Wiggins was rclcned
'oni slavery in ibO., she remained at
her old homo in Virginia, although her
husband came North and tried to in-
uce Charity to do so. Charity never
saw her husband after that and heard
from him but once, and that when he
died in Now York Stato in a littlo set-
ement noar Warrenton. Tho freed
oman continued lo live, supporting
lerself and two children by hiring out
by tho day. One of tho children was
Hlind Tom, the mtnic.il prodigy.
Two years ago Tom s manager, Mr.
Hethune, was killed by tho cars at
Wilmington, Delaware. Tom was ta-
on back to Warrenton nnd his mother
mndo another attempt to Bocuro posses
sion of him,' but J. 11. Hethune, brother
Tom's former manager, was ap
pointed tho blind pianist's guardian.
Sinco that time Tom has been living
th Mr. Hnthune.
Tlio widow of J. A. Hethune did
not like the appointment, however,
and alleged that as the heir of her hus
band, sho was entitled to tho proceeds
loins labor, failing in this it is
understood that she induced Charily
Wiggins to enter suit to teoover Tom,
and tho latter did so, swearing out a
habeas corpus, setting forth that Tom
was living tn a stato ot servitude, be
ing held in tho custody of J. N. He
thune, tho latter having had himself ap-
pointed a committee of lunacy to tako
chargo of Tom.
Tho wiit was issued Tuesday of last
week and made returnable Thursday in
Alexandria before Judge llughes.
Tho court-room in the top of tlio post-
olhco building was soon tilled when it
became known in tho village that
Hlind Tom was to bo seen, and tho hot
sun didn't keep many away. Tom was
led up the iron (steps and when ho got
to tho top ho was blowing and pufling,
but managed after a series of
facial contortions to say that it was
warm.
Tom is a big, bulky fellow, who
would weigh probably 180 pounds, and
is about fivo feet six inches tall, lie
is not ns black as souVi full-blooded ne
groes nro, but he is n great deal darker
than his mother, ins tnco is tun and
round, and his eyeballs, iu which theie
is no sense of light or intelligence, roll
nbout in nn unpleasant manner. His I
bands are largo and flat, and ho occu
pies mrst ot tho time m going through
tho motion of playing tho piano,
screwing up his taco and rolling his
eyes.
flis mother is a little, withered-tip
old woman of a bright copper color.
Sho had wailed patiently about all day,
and when fIio saw Tom coming up tho
steps there was a glad expression on
her face, and sho mado an attempt to
caress Tom.
Oh, Tommy, I'm glad to see you,"
sho said, but Tom was hurried by and
led up tlio stops, nnd Charity heaved a
deep sigh and followed.
Tom was given a scat tacing tho
Judge, and Charity tugged a chair up
to his sido and began to talk to him in
a low tone. Ho mado no responso to
her for some time, then turned his back
on her. t wo tears roiled down the
cheeks of tho old woman, and her form
began to tremble with suppressed emo
tion. Onco sho leaned on him and
told him how much she wanted him
back, but with nn impatient motion Tom
turned further away.
"Don t treat mo Iiko that, 1 ommy,"
pleaded tho old woman, but Tom's
bulky form trembled with rago. IIo
attempted to say something, but tho
only sound that cimo was a jumblo ol
unintelligible words.
Then ono of tho attendants moved
his chair. His mother went over to
him, but ho became so angry that sho
afterward moved her chair b'esido that
occupied by Widow Hethune, and the
Judgo camo iu and took his scat.
Kppa Hiiutoii, Jr., camo iu with
three law books to reprosent Tom's
commissioner. Three lawyers from
Washington with a great many law
books wero aUo present. Young
iluuton was introduced to tho Court
and admitted to tho bar. Ho began
by moving that tho petitioner bo com
pelled to give bonds for costs. Ono of
tho thrco council got up and hoped His
Honor know that Tom's mother had
already been cheated out of what was
duo her, ami ho askod that tho other
sido bear the expense. Then the two
lawvers wrangled1 about sontimont and
the merits of tho caso until tho Judge
finally decided that both should pay.
A Young Girl in the Grave and Her Lover
a Life Convict-
Mini which ha just taken placo
at St. liiiounc, Krmice, has brought to
light details of a dtamatia affair. In
January hut a young man threw him

of the Hotel do l'Kuropo at St, Kticmie,
IIo was little hurt by tho fall, but
when taken up ho was found to have
tired a shot fiom n revolver iu his
mouth and stubbed himself in tho
breast with a sword cane. In tho
chamber from which ho bad thrown
himself was lound tho body of a young
g'nl who had been shot in tho head
while asleep, , Iho young man refused
lo give bis name or that of his corn
companion, but said that they were
lovci8 and had resolved to die togeth
er, drawn to death by a poetic im
pulse.
He recovered, and tho story of thoir
livcH was revealed by tho police inves

Atuny, was the son of respectable pa

21 years of age, but was already af

maladie du siecle, a heated imagination
with an inordinate thirst for wealth
and mattiial pleasures, ending in mor
bid disgust for life anil depression of
spirits from envy and disappointment,

perforuioJ his military service in tho
hospitals. On recovciing his liberty,
in August last, ho was absoibcd bv a
monomania for suicide, and as ho Iiad
inherited from his father a sum of TOOOf.

to Lyons in search of his ideal, aud

IIo followed her when sho left with
her friends, and learned that bIio bo
longed to an honest family of tlio
working class. Ho succeeded in mak

they eloped together. To dazzle the
young girl, Auray represented himself
as the sou 01 parents immensely rich,
and he commenced by purchasing for
her elegant dresses, and then sent back
her simple clothing to her friends, as
ho would not allow her to possess any
thing that had belonged to her parents,
