Eviryhody nutkes the remd ltcks." " I should think so. Such airs." tilled Miss Sm.ee, w ritlin,; herself into the con versation. The trentleman. Harrv Clorilirook, looked n little surprised nnd annoyed. "If vou wore speaking of them, then I may infer! ho words I causflit- 'an uncle, a si'ronr hox nnd a mystery 'had. something to do with them r '' " Yes. You see they're' al ways boast in" of tbi- uncle, who was the making of I heir for tune, who mixed w'lh all the swells on Murray Hill, who found out they were connected with the Kniekerliockers nnd who left t he proofs of tin ir noble connect ion in an iron chest, which lt- made a compact Shouldn't l e opened until a certain day. And a lot the Ken.li icks has made out b' that, I'll warrant you." And who is the j.eutlemun walking with the younger lady '" "That is the nephew. The ladv is a daughter a proud thina; who turns up her nose at trade. Jlis name is Paul Avenal." Until this moment the Duller family have been following the Fendricks, but now reaching the cross-roads the two diverged. We will fo'low the Ketidrieks. The father w as ns pompon a pieee of humanity cs could be. If anything wan moreinflated in expression than his face it was his white waistcoat. Mrs. Fendri'ks ran a m!ld-c.at;ired woman the ilamrhler resemhleil the father while I'aul was a bright, hone-t-lookini young man with no pomposity about liim. " Now here, T'nnl." said the father, con tinuing the con versat ion. "1 wont have it and that saii about- it. I ve brought you up to be a gentleman and you shan't dis grace my family. You disgrace, I say, 'ho noble fonniier of niy family, I refer to your great uncle." "Confound my uncle !'' it was on Paul's Hps to say, for "lie was nearly sick of tho name, but lie said : " I have no wish 'o disgrace the family, uncle. 1 m sure, and I can't see what my marrying ilcttieTravera ban to do with it " "Why. I'aul, I'm surprised," said Kaimie. Fendricks, in horror " Isn't she the daughter of a man who kteps a book shop t" "And who was a Jrent'eman and a ;hoiar !" exclaimed Paul, liotiy. "Ho had more bra.ns than half the aristo cratic " " Brains, sir brains'.'' lmrst forth Fend ricks tiie elder; "what is brams to blood ? Think of jour uncle the associate ot the aristocracy, of the Van Spoor.ers anil the Koosevelt Mairdin-nddys. who could talk and talk of 'em a we do of the .lonescs and th Smiths." " lintil l.'ncle Will went to seek his for tune I believe our family were poor enough." " Poor but pFoud ; but remember, Paul, he was always a worthy fellow." ."Hut with a liking for low company. It was ridiculing his stepmother's grand airs that got him kicked out by his father." "Ah, but he was young nnd eccentric even to the end. Are yon awarathat the mystery of my TTnde Widiam will be cleared up on the Eid of next month So I don't want you to rush into any beg garly marrir.ye " and po hunter the ex cellent inaU-li I expect for your cousin Fanny." - Paul bit his lip and was about to reply when a h.nd touched him on I he shoulder. Tu ntr round iie beheld Harry donhrook. and extended h s hand. "Why, o'i 1-lv.w, who should have thought of n'rctic.g you here h ex cl rlru'd. reco-tii iiu hi-, old colle-re chum, lntnvlucl ions ioiiowed and then the two turned back for a walk and tain. "What are ou dohjx now?" asked IlatTy. t)h, reading la ,v, and con-cipiently d--peudtiit on my liiicie. I wish he had mede me a carpenter or an upholsterer : then by thia time I might have licen making my fortune," cried Paul. "Which means yon want the fortune for somebody cUe. There is a ladv in the ca.se.' "L'xnctly. Did you pee in the gallery to the left of the oigm a young lady in n blue lionnet ?' " Well, my tint le thoatens to turn nie out if I marry her, hc-anse her fa I her was a tradesman, nnd yon know." said Paul, with a scornful laugh, "owing to our uncle, that's beneath us." " I know, my dear fellow ? 1 know noth ing about it or of the strong box and the mystery." " Weil, to ex pi a in matters I must go back Siime years. .My grandfather, who was a simple farmer, married the na.ighter of a poor, but arl'-io'-rat tc family. From that day life was a burden. My "her pr-de and arrogance f-ho r.: i.!o his days miserable and finally mh-i eeiied in driving his only son by a first "iietroiu the house. This was my great-uncle. Will Fendrick. She said his habits were low. He protested that there was no disgrace iu honest labor and thnt she with her wretched pi ide, had made th;n rx-frnvs. "Weil, for many years Will Fendrick was not heaid of unld rumor reac.iuil his stepmother that he was tutting a great dash in .uv Yo: k and was looked upon as one of the tno-t olee.nt men in society. W hen he died he left Sii-VJuo and an iroti box, which was not to be opened until June 1.J, W4. Tlie mnttcv was 11. founda tion of my nncin'rt wealth; tho box the foundation rtf his jui.le." "And if this pride is not overcome how about Mh.s T ravers?" "1 uiarry her. I!al ouly this is n secret fling over tiie law and take a place with her uncle, a bookseller in thwrily." Hijivo.' That's just what I would do myself: but what more about the 1j., it amuses rue." "More than it does me, who m ashamed of it. Well, the -Jd will soon be here the day for which we have waited so many ye:in and my uncle has invited a iarg.j uumlerot p-jople to witness the opening of the cl.esr." "And ;oa f" 'Shall l e 'Mlt of the way when the c: re mouy conies oil hut her.- we at e at jour door. No, thanks, can't come iu. tiood by may see you to-ni .-.lit." So tLey parti d, Paul to bo further har assed about his tri ea -uncle and his mar riage with Hetty, and I b-rry ( '.onorook to relate the story of the Fentliiek mystery to his father oser tiie dinner kible. Great was the excitement when the 23d arrived. Those who were iuv.tesl v.e; in a flutter cf expectatian. ( n this m mec'ous evening Mrs. Fendrick was timid and frightened, Mr. Fendrick more potu pons man ever, nitil Miss Fanny more pat ronizing. As to Paul, he palrefl off with Harry Olon brook and showed himself as little as possible. The important ceremony of opertng the box was to come after supper. Owing to this even the dancing flagged in spirit, and when supper was announced the guests soon deserted it iu their eagerness to roturn to the drawing room. On enti rinif, there, undrr the centre of the chandelier stood the Fendrick mys tery. An iron box. clamped with brass, Mreathle-s was the excitement when a smith in lej;the;r apron and grimed fuce, dotting his hat to the assembly, ap proached the box with his tools. Hang. htmner! hammer, bang! The clamps were worn with years, so they yielded easily. The smith inserted his chisol in the lid and pried it up. Kvery neck was craned forward Too fluttered to be pompous, Mr. Fendrick stepped towards the t ox. On the top lay a brown paper parcel cn whi -h was written : " My passport to mingle among the best society To be. opened lir't." W. FKNIintfK Tremblingly, Mr. Frendrick removed the paper, bided by the agitated Fannv. " It feels like like " the latter begr.n dubiously. Then turning pnle sh? stag gerevl back with a piercing scream of horror. The brown covering had fallen away sudd, nly, leaving in .Mr. Fend rick's hand-t a ttrhilit ijlum-citlnrrrl font man's coat anil citntirii-ritlnrcil tnhin'i! A paper fluttered to tiie floor unseen by the aghast father and daughter. Mrs. Fuller maliciously darted forward and seized it. " What is it, desr ?" asked Miss Smee. "Such fun! Well, it serves 'om rlgit : that it does." " Head it aloud, dear; do." And Mrs. Ruller did. "The rich relation viho hclnert nv when I was stprving was John Fend'Vlfc, butler to a millionaire. He procured me a lucrative position tm a footman, and I leave my dignity and my living to mv step mother's descendants. It is the rei enge I take upon thnt pride which turned me out of my futher s door. Wn.I.IAM FKVDf.Tr K." The painful, humiliating scene that fol lowed need not be described. It will suffice to sav that Mr. Fendrirk nnd his family left the vicinity of Engie wood for another suburb, where they con trived to avoid boasting of their bin Ii and ancestors. Paul married Kettio Travels and did not give up the law. On tho contrary he now deals out jus tice from the police bench, and is a terror to malefactors It wns while dinhig to gether with him and his charming wire the other night that I heard this storr of the " Fendrick M vstery."

The waterways of Holland are being utilized for the defence of the country, after a fashion peculiarly characteristic of Dutch ingenuity. In time of danger, by opening certain dams and barriers, and flooding various lands. Holland can sur round herself by a water-line of sixty miles in length, and from live to ten miles wide, effectually blockading nil advance from Germany on the east. A fw narrow roads, guarded by fortilical ions, will inter sect the inundations, which, though kept shallow to avoid hostile vessels approach ing, wili conceal numerous iteep trenches to prevent the enemy Ironi wading through the stream. In winter, when the waters freeze, the depth of the inunda tions will be increased, n.id. after the sur face has frozen, the waters lielow will be drained off leaving a thin ice crust ready to give way nnder the weizht of troops, aud plunge them into the trenches below. Kvery facility which is afforded to aid In tho acquirement of a knowledge of nature, of the laws of the universe. Is a blessing to the world nnd a gr'at promoter of human good.

We were lying on thesonth sideof the river ntid bad pontoon oridge across it. F.arlv in th morning a imrt of our forces who were on the north side of the river got into an en gagement with the rebeN, in which thev had taken from them that is, our fellow's had taken from Ihinn-a cannon, and orders were nent to me to taka mv bntal l:on of four companies across the" bridge and recapture, if possible, the gun Well, we started and w hen I readied the op posite side of the river wit h a portion of my command 1 noticed lh.it my column had been cut by a number of oilicers whom I saw just about to ride upon tiie bridge. As our t ime was limited, and we were under special orders. I put spurs to tny horse, rode back over tlie bridge as fast ns I could go. nnd not a little out of sorts, thinking that lite men 1 saw who had cut my column were a lot of stall officers, who usually had the impudence to do just such a thing when there w.s no cause whatever for it. Well, 1 rode right up to Uiese officers nnd was prepared to let out on them the worst kind, even if it amounted to running them off thebrid -e into thw river, w hen who should 1 recog nize nt the head of I hem, but General Grant, who t ailed mil to ine. ' Major, I am sorry to have b- en obliged to cut your colnmn, but I am very anxious to get across the river and woti'i delay on tun a few minutes.' Well, if I have 'to u-ll it myself, I will sav that I never got over a 'mad' so quickly in mv life, i don't be lieve tbat anything ever made me wilt so soon 1e General and his start were o!T and over th bridge aiti'ost bel'oi e 1 could get my breath back again, and then the rest of my column followed and we got to tne scene of action in time to recapture the gun we were sent after." Capt. D. W. C. Iewis, of West Chester, tells the following little anecdote ot Gen Grant asshowing his capability for organi ration and accomplishing things. In lStis. the (raves of the soldiers at Arlington were to lie decorated aud lien. Graut, then General of the Army, was present with his staff by invitation It was the first time that the ceremony of decorating graves had been tried and there was no plan ns to how it should be done All sorts of plans were suggested, but none seemed to -trike the part v. until (Jen. Grant, who had been sitting silently listening, remarked, " Lat each man take two baskets of (lowers, nnd, accompanied by two ladies, the work w ill soon be done " The General pickad up his banket and started with two ladles, the crowd accept ing the idea and following him. In a s?iort time the graves were all decorate-d Capt. Lewis started with his two baskets the ladies with him being- Miss Chandler' daughter of Senator Chandler, and Mis? Matthews, half sister of Schuyler Colfax and he remarked, referring to lieu. Grant' "There goes the next President'' "Well," said Miss Matthews, "ir that i fo, I hope iny brother will be the Vice President." The Hepublic.ni Convention of that year nominated Grant and Coifax Tn the early days of the raris Exposi tion Grant was at the French capital A bright thought struck some genius ; (.rant should tie brought forward to give eclat to the American exhibit, on opening day Courtesy led the soldier President to accede to the impoi tunit ie's of his country men, and he faced a crowd of thousands lo carry out the arranged program of turning on steam to start American machinery, and then he followed uncom plainingly the commie lee hither and thither, foi theirown parade and glorilica tion abova all other thing apparently, lie did not say he was bored, bnt he was, and he heard with astonishment, not to say distress, a suggestion from one of his orlicious pilots that it wonld le an exceed ingly happy thing to entertnin the big audience with a bit of oratory. Could fate be more horrible ? Speech making In Knglish to a crowd of Parisians! The humor f the thing was rasping, but the self conscious gentlemen Hd not. heswate. and on hurried their scheme to hoist the General into the unenviable prominence prompted by their egotism. Put when the distinguished gentlemen suddenly looked about them there was not a sign of Gen. Grant in view. He had declined to do the ci.rcns act for their aggrandizement and, following the lead of his modesty, he had quitted the building. On one of Gen. Grant's visits to the Cat skilLs it is related that he wandered away from companions one day and stretched himself besides a trout stream in oneof the shady nooks somewhere in Shandakon. He was half napping when a stalwart native broke In upon him with a stern nil dress. It was the owner of I he trout brook, confident thnt he had caught a trespasser ujm his lawful rights.

" Lvs " Grant tried him. and he weut over, t Hut hi pers-ered, and finally finding that he couldn't riiU "front" furnel around, took a " tail-hold " and r.wie t hf mule around the ring in liiumph Grant was a greater hors-man, even when a boy, and this statement may hare founda tion in f.trt. At any rate it illustrated Mr. Lincoin's idea of the firmnesj and persistency of his General. While the army lay nreiind Vlrksburg s gentleman from Chicago, calling one ilav, said to General Grant : " 1 have some very tine brandy on the boat, nnd if on will send and orderly with me to "the river. I will send you a cae or two " "lam greatly o d;gcd," answered t he Gen eral, 'but 1 do not use the arlit le. 1 have a big job ou hand, and, though I km w I shall win, I know I must do it w ith a clear head. Send all onr bquor you in leiul for me lo myhospidl m the rear; I don't think it will bint the poor fellows down there." The first money Grant ever earned was a five-penny bit. oi six and a quarter cents, which he got for carrying a trunk from a hotel to a boat landing. 11 is cousin James helped him cany tlie trunk, which was very heavy, and the money was divided between the two. Afterward it is said thnt his fat her set him to di i vmi; the horse which ground the tan bark This wotk was very tiresome an 1 young I'lyses would hire some other boy to do it for a few cents and go off and make n dollor or more with his father s horse nnd wagon. An old and well known incident is the following, but everybody will take pleasure in reading it again: During the war some one said to Grant that he wouid le President yet. The General laugh ingly replied that if ever he run for an oflice he hoped it would be for Mayor of Galena, so that he might have a sidewalk built from his house to the riilroad station. When he returned to Galena at the close of the war one of the niches of welcome over the si reet lre this inscrip tion! "General, the sidewalk ts built." While on his trip around the world General Grant wrote to a friend concern ing some charge that he had grown rich in oflice1 : "Had I gone oat of oifce at t he end of four yci.rs, when my salary was $ir,000 a year. I would have been con pelled to sell something -quite an amount to have carried me out of Washington. P.nt with my private income and increased salary I came out at the end of eight years free from debt and without having incurred any loss anywhere Iu specula tiou." While besieging Vicksburg Grant inter cepted a letter which contained ihese words: "We put our trust in the Ixjrd. WeexjicctJoe Johnston to come to our relief." On reading this Grant ordered a )Mrtion of his army to make a certain movement, saying lo the General in com mand : They f ceui to put a good deal of trust in the Lord and Joe .Johnston, but you must whip Johnston fifteen miles from he-re." Grant's dispatch to the government an nouncing the fall of Vicksburg was char acteristie: of his modesty and simplicity. He wrote: "The enemy surrendered this morning The only terms allowed is their parole ns prisoners of war. This I regard a a great advantage tons at this moment. It saves probably several dnys iu the cap ture and leaves troops and transports ready for immediate service." In his speech in reply to the address of the Mayor of Liverpool General Grant tit tered these signil'ccnt words; "1 nm a soldier, and, as you know, a soldier must die. 1 have Veen 1 "resident, but we know that the term of the Presidency expires ; and w hen it lias expired he . no more than a dead soldier. Shortly after the battles of Chattanooga General Grant said to ( ieneral Meigs : " I don't believe In strategy in the popular understanding of the term. I use it to get up just ns rlot:e to the enemy ns practic able with ns little loss of life ns ossible. Then, up guards, aud at Vin !'' Just before Grant made his second as sault upon the telxl works at YickshnrR he called all his corps commanders to gether ami had ( hem set t heir watches by nis own timepiwee, so that the onset might might be. like Ihe bienk ng of one mighty wave. During the siego at Vicksburg Grant said: "If we can get plenty of onions and potatoes we'll take the town." lie mada this remark upon ordering a supply of veg etables from the North, incipient scurvy having appeared among the Mildiers.

Let no fine Imagine, from what is hero said, thnt the South is careless of tho opin ion or regar.llesis of the couuscd of the out side world. On the contrary, whe main taining firmly a position she believes to lo essential, she nppreciates heartily the val ue of general sympathy and confidence. With an earnestness that is little less than pathetic she bespeaks the patience and the impartial judgment of all concerned. Surely her sitn.iKon should command this, raiher than indirterenco or antagonism. In poverty and defeat with her cit.es de stroye-d. Wr fields desolate 1. her labor disorgauiA-d. her homes iu ruins, her tani ilies scattered, and the ranks if her sons decimated in the face of universal preju dice, fanned by the storm of war into hos tility and hatred under the shadow of this sorrow and this advantage, she turned braved y to confront a problem that would have taxed to tho utmost every res anew of a rich aud powerful and victorious feo ple. Kvery inoh of her progress has been lK-set with sore difficulties, nnd if the way is now clearing it only reveals more clear ly the tremendous import of the work to which her hand are given. It must bo understood that she desires to silance no criticism, evade no issue, and lessen no responsibility. She recoirni.es that the negro is here to stay. She knows that her honor, her dear name, and her fame. m less than her prosperity, wili In: measured by the fullness of the justice she gives and guarantees to this kindly and dependent race. Sheknowsthat every mistake mads and every error fallen into, no matter how innocently, endanger her ai e and ler reputetion. In this full knowledge she accepts the issue without leer or evasion. She says, not boldly, but conscious of th honesty anil the wisdom of her conrie ons: "lveave this problem to my work ing out. I will solve it in calmness nod deliberation, without passion or prejudice, and with full regard for the unspeakable equities ii holds. Judge me ifgidlv, but judge me by my works." And with the South the matter may be lef must bo left. There it can be left with the fullest confidence that the honor of the republic will lie maintained, the rights of humani ty guarded, and the problem worked out lu such exact justice as the finite mind can measure or finite agencies administer. ii.
