"His name is Melton ; and I know nothing whatever aliout him, except that he's a member of an engineer cords at present in the city. I don't see what there is aliout him so remarkably handsome."

And off the' glided, a faint flush on Addie's cheeks, as Mr. Melton's hand some blue eyes caught hers and held her glance a second, despite herself. That was the way it liegan ; and a month later, when New York society was stirred to its soul by the deferred advent of Lord Cuthliert Grosvenor, Miss Nellison wondered why it was that Addie's enthusiasm had so completely died out. "You're a mystery to me, Addie," she said, as thev drove home from the crush at Mrs. Van.

After that well, Kllie hardly knew Addie, so variable and capricious she grew; now in the wildest spirits, again dejected and petulant, until one day there came by one of the liveried ser vants, a written projiosal of marriage, on a satiny sheet of pajier, bearing a crest and a monogram in silver and maroon, and signed in a little crabbed, spidery hand, "(Jrosvenor" a-letter that offered her, in a very gentemanly, enthusiastic all the grand, good things that had been her sole aim in life to possess. While by mail not ten minutes later, had come another letter, that made the girl's heart thrill, and all her pulses stir, as she read the passionate prayer for her self to lie given to the man who loved her Phillip Melton, with his handsome face, and his salary as an engineer. For several hours, Kllie wondered what Addie was doing, so long in her room ; and then, by-and-by, she came softly down stairs, a sweet flush in her face, a tender pride in her eyes, a thrill of jierfect content in her voice. "Kllie, dear, I want to tell you. I have refused Lord Crosvenor's offer of marriage, and accepted Philip." And without a question, Kllie put her arm aliout the slight form, and kissed her.

An "Old Oambler" has the following to say in the Washington l'ost : In old times I don't believe there were more than half a dozen members we didn't know well, in a business way, but I swear now, as a gentleman, "that not more than four members of the last Con gress ever come to our rooms.

Whv, the craie on man that wins2-J on a turn now, thinks that his reputation as a gambler is es tablished, and he begins to talk about us fellows that play. If we can't do letter than that we will have to turn in and eat each other up. Now, in old times we thought nothing of having a thousaid or two up on a turn. There was old Humphrey Mar shall. He was a prince. I never saw an amatuer in my ex)erience of forty years who would put down as much cold money out of his handsasMarshall. Some fellows, you know, are queer aliout cams, iiiere was the other Marshall. He was different from Humphrey that way. He laid himself out on piling his stack of chips up to the ceiling. Hut Humphrey would come in and pull down cold cash out of his clothes and put it all down on a turn. He made lots of money, lived like a lord, and never seem ed to be short. Hold up, yes, he was short once, that's a fact. It was aliout the time that he came from Chili where he was American Minister. He came into the rooms one day, and said his Wife wanted an addition to the house. and he was going to give her money to build it with right off that table, and. by the Lord, he did! He played just like one of us cool as ice all the time. One of the grandest old men at the business was Thad. Stevens. Thad. played a pretty game not very big, but scientific ; and then, too. he was regular alKiut it. Never came across any one j who had a bigger soul of honor aliout him than Thad. I used to love him like a brother. He always played chijs, never got excited at all, but took more i solid comfort out of it than most any . one I ever saw. Poor old Thad ! I re member when he was on his death bed. , The doctors had lieen giving out that j he was sick of this thing and that, and j wouldn't let any one come into his j room. He sent for me. When I got there the house-keeper said that she had lieen ositivcly ordered not to let any IH-rson talk to Mr. Stevens, but Thad, happened to hear my voice, and he called out: "Hob," said he "these old fools are trying to find some excuse for killing me off, but it's all nonsense. Seventy eight years in my complaint. I wanted to see you. old fellow, ticfore I passed in my chips for the last time," and he died that day, the grandest and liest old fel low we've had iu public life for many a day, I tell you. Some of those foreign fellows used to lie game, esicially the Hussians. I guess it's in the blood with them; any how, they all had it in the old days, from Hod i seo down. He was a queer coon, but the most systematic man at the game you ever saw. He used to set aside just so much money for this little fun. If he was in luck he'd play ahead, and sometimes cleared a stake, but generally he didn't turn up well, and when so much was gone he'd push his chair back from the table and say quiet lv- in always the same words, "Ze ap- propriation for zat is all exhaust. Then, if lie didn't feel tired, he looked on i for a while liefore going home. He ' never went over his limit on the appro priation. The fellows connected with the Russian Legation they used to coma ' around nearly every day, some of them ' playing big. If they didn't have the ! cash it made no difference for they were 1 just as good as old wheat. The bank kept a regular account with them by the i month, and when the sinews of war ! came around they'd clear the slate. Hut, Lord ! don't befive any of those gcod old fellows are in the country any more. ; Just apjKars like a jiestilence or a hur- ricane had come along and swept the ' whole crowd into the grave. I In the old days there was money in the game, and it paid to dine and wins 1 your patrons. When a game used to clear upward of 100.000 in a season, we j ' could afford to lie generous and gic j i away the lunch. I can reniemler one ; year when we got away during the sea- 1 ' son with 1,."K0 baskets of champagne, j ! Yes, of course, it cost a great deal less j than now, but other values were in pro- ; ! portion. We never thought of asking a j gentleman what he'd have to drink. ' Hut nowadays there isn t a customer ' who comes to the rooms who don't cat , up his head and drink up his jaws three : times over in twenty-four hours. Why, would you believe it, even the old summer resorts don't care any more ' for the game. I went down this sum- J mer to White Sulphur, just to see if I! couldn't find some of the old Southern I blood. We opened out. One day the bank took ?.'J4 ; then did not do a cent's worth of business for several days, until I some youngsters drojijeil in and we cleared aliout $2. That sickened me ' and I packed up. I thought, you know, : if there was any game left in the old ' stock it would grow up at the White j Sulphur, but it changed ; tho crowds ; there are different; getting too gener- al, too promiscuous and too poor. The i men sit around on the verandas, take i the girls driving and buy liall tickets i for them all such soft sport as that ; i but they've quit risking stakes on a j turn like the old lwiys. It made me feel ! sick looking round that place, to think i how changed everything is. Hut I must go. So long. I v orthodox Chixamax.

Mr. McClain was elected to the Thirty-first Congress, without op losition, from his district in Kentucky and served two years, when his failing health compiled him to decline a re nomination. He enjoved a personal ac- qu tintance with Webster. Clay and the other great men of thai body, and was a close observer of them and the affairs of the time. He recently gave me some interesting reminiscences never Ix-fore published. He was an admirer of the oratory of Webster, who, however, in his inter course with the memliers was very re clusive, though hetriedhardtoliesoci.il. When he smiled it reminded one of a ghastly grin. He Mas much more resjiectful to his opponents that was Calhoun, w ho would not tolerate any differing from his opin ions. Calhoun was unable to lie pres ent at the opening of the session on ac count of ill health, and it was evident that he had not much longer to live. In this connection there is an anecdote of Senator Hcnton that has never lieen pub- j lished. Kent on had met both Clav and W elister in deliate, and was itching for j a contest with Calhoun. When the lat j ter returned to his seat he made a bitter ! speech against Hcnton s partv, whose friends exjiected him to reply. Hut Hen ton ttiok no notice of the attack. Some of his friends, Mr. McClain among the number, asked for an expla nation. Drawing himself up with all the dignity imaginable, he replied : "When the Almighty lays His hand on a man I take mine off." . . Benton was probably the most egotis- tical man America ever produced. He had a habit of talking to himself, and as he frequently passed the hotel where Col. McClain, Col. Marshall of Ken tucky, and it her memliers stayed, it lie came the subject of frequent remark. One evening Col. Marshall accosted him with the interrogation : "Senator Hen- i ton. why much ?" do you talk to yourself so With great dignitT Hcnton replied: "Col. Marshall, I can tell vou very earnestly and very truly why I '. talk to myself. I love to talk to a great : man. and I lovet" hear a great man talk." j Hcnton also had a fight with Henry j Clay, on the floor, which was carefully i suppressed from the iiewspaiers. Clay ; had made a direct attack on Hcntnn. to i which the latter undertook toreplv. As a wit and humorist he had not an equal in Congress. Heading a long advertise- : ment of a cure-all from a newspaier, he ' sarcast icallyVompared it wit h ( lay's ( )ni . nibus bill, "then liefore the House, say ing that as Townsend's was the only meritorious sarsajiarilla. so all the meas . ures iiieoriwvrated in the bill were ol jjectionable until gathered up by Mr. i Clay. He kept the Senate in a roar for : swiie time, much to the chagrin of Clay, ; who finally interrupted him with: ; ''When Mr. Hen ton was canvassing his : district in Missouri, he opjiosed the ad t mission of California as a State." i Mr. Hcnton replied : "I want to sav , to the distinguished Senator that I gave the lie to that statement three months ' . ago. but I now release the instigator j i and held the proiHigntor resjwinsible for ; ( it. I pick it up and ram it down the ! , throat of the Senator ; let him swallow i j it if he can." "Clay replied : "I take ' , it and hurl it back in the face of the ' gentleman with all the contempt with ; ', which it was offered ; and let him. for j ! the rest of his life, keep the slander in ! the casket where he Keeps the other ' slander." This was said with a gesture ' to the cravat, understood by all familiar ' ! with the oliticsof that time, referring I . to a lioyhiwl indiscretion to I'enton. It : ! was only with difficulty, by the interpo- j sit ion of Senators, that an encounter between them was prevented. The af- ' fair was quickly hushed up, but was : , much talked of bv memliers at the time. 1 A Hlixh Man's Di ki..

Hut the time allotted for preliminaries was brief, and the men were stieedily put in posit ion. The word j was given. and two ringing reimrts flashed out in the air. Capt.

You have killed him." "No: I an unable to see "You can't see ?" "No I am blind ?" And so he proved to tie.
