HAPPY AT LAST.
•* I do wish. Marguerite, you'd listen to com
mon sense." said Xtrs. Bale.
Mrs. Bale was sitting hy a table opposite to
a rose-twuied window, whence a lovely summer
landscape stretched itself away green
meadows, braided witli the silver baud of a
tiny river, and cluster* of woods seeming to
lean against the sky.
She was a widow who bad not yet lost all the
fair rounded outlines of her girlish, beauty, or
the luxuriant auburn hnud* of her yet uu
silvered hair.
And Marguerite, her lovely daughter, sat on
the other side of the table, the slanting suu
light touching her golden tresses, and her dar
rlmg complexion wniel purer and in. re like
a newly bioss-nned >,*! pea than ever, by con
trast with her light dress.
" Well, mamma. Marguerite I Sale spoke
ainuv-t rvckle&alv. " what would vou haie me

Mr. Alcotte has ptv{*sed to yoa . "

the ops a letter ly.nc in her lap. while slu
mmed her face suddenly away, as if the glow
of the noon sunlight hurt her eve-.

persisted Mr*. Bale.
Marguerite sluithlerod slightly.
Tbennsiuc. she crossed to her mother s side,
and placing her hand on the back of her chair,
looked down into the U|>tnmed face.
'• Maunii*. would vou liAve me marry * man

"My dear, ray d.-xr," reasoned the mother.
" thi* idt *of love is gurwlv visionary. True

" But. Marguerite, dear Mrs. Bale was

not beat cow were there not an aff.swenig
throb to it somewhere in this wide worl !
•" Then where is he? How do you at
for this long eij unbroken silence on his ,.u l ?"
demanded Mrs. Dale.
"I don't account for it, mamma—l ouiv
•
" Marguerite." pleaded her mother. "he has
forgotten you. even if he is still alive. Give
hnn up. lYvve your womanly pride and spirit."
But Marguerite resolutely -hook her head.
"My daughter," went on Mrs. Dale. "Mr.
Akotte is your uncle's friend. One reason of
my cv<aung to your ancle s house this summer
was to afford you this golden opportunity.
Here it lies at your feet —wealth, ease, a lux
nnaut home for your mother, as well as TOUT
eelf "
" Mamma. I would rather go out working by
the day.' interrupted Marguerite.
"Work. then, ungrateful girl!" burst out
Mrs. Dale, angrily. " For I eertaiuly shall 110
longer rv uain a pensioner ou Colonel Dale's
bounty, since vou nave contemptuously spurnvxl
his best friend from you. Sew scrub" teach—
whatever smu you best. Something it is neces
sary for you to do. and that quickly."
Marguerite retired, pale anil silent, and went
to her uncle s room.
Colonel Dale was beriming absorbedly over
some letters —h looked up with a start as
Marguerite entered.
"Well. Peggy." he said, caressingly, for his
pretty niece was rather a favorite with him.
• • have yon come to tell me you will be Fernande
Alcotte's wife t"
"No. uncle." answered Marguerite, firmly.
" Why not?" demanded the old nun.
"I do not love him."
"Well." said Colonel Dale, intently watch
ing her, "and why don't you love him? Are
vou still thinking of that ne'er-do-well, Geoffrey
tiossmore. who was shipwrecked six month's
ago?"
"Yes, uncle," despairingly cried out Mar
guerite, "I am still thinking of him. lam
his affianced wife, and will be faithful to him
as long as I live."
" Then you are a fool," slowly uttered Colonel
Dale, a savage frown kmtting'his brows.
" Uncle." went on Marguerite, unheeding
his last remark, " will you help me to get a
situation ?"
" No," thundered the irate man. "I won't !"
That was the end, of course, of their easv
going life at Dale wood Place.
Mrs. Dale and Marguerite went into cheap
lodgings.
Mrs. Dale spent her time, like Siobe, " all
tears."
Marguerite toiled from place to place in
search of any work which might keep starva
tion from their door.
And in the midst of all this Mr. Alcotte re
newed his offer.
Mrs. Dale brightened visibly.
" Oh, Marguerite, you never will refuse him
a second time T'
"Mamma." said Marguerite. "I hare not
changed my mir.d in any reject. I qould
rather starve than eel! mv.'elf for gold 1"
" Very well," -aid Mrs. Dale, setting her
teeth together. "I have endured the conse
quence* of your caprices long enough. I will
go back to Dale wood. Your uncle offers me a
home."
"Good," *sid Cncle Dale, when the mother
arrived at Dalewood. "There* nothing like
extreme measure*. She can't bold out long
now. We shall have her back here eating
• humble pie in less than a month."
But there was more re- mrce and resolution
in Marguerite * character than either her moth
er or her uncle gave her credit for.
One morning she was asked hv a gentleman
if she would accept a situation.
"Give me something to do," said she. de
spairingly ; " I don t care what it is."
"Will yon go abroad as comjMuiioii to a crazv
lady?" dubiously inquired the other. "Good
salary, but troublesome place. The lady s
mother goes with her. too, hut "
" Yes." said Marguerite. " I will go."
Mr-. Gerard knew nothing about traveling-
Mi-- Gerard was po— -s i| with a general idea
that a regiment of soldiers was following her to
shoot her down—and between them both our
little heroine had but a sorry time of it.
But she persevered, smiling and resolute, a
if her heart were not growing faint within her.
It was the day appointed for the sailing of
the vessel, and the three lade-* had oome on
board- Mrs. Gerard nervous and flurried. Mi-*
Gerard per[ietually watching an opportunity p.
escape the vigilance of her guardian*, and Mar
guerite worn and wearied with the care* of
packing.
"Here's a mistake," cried out Mrs. Gerard.
"I thought we had engaged No. 14."
"So we did." said Marguerite.
" And here's the officer sayH No. 14 was taken
a month ago, and therv's some mistake, and we
shall have to go in a dark, stuffy little hole uu- i
der the wheel. Oh. dear oh. dear 1"
"I am sorry, ma'am," said the officer, "but
it is the only state-room left Perhaps, how- :
ever, the gentleman who has engaged No. 14
might be willing to give it up to tie- ladies if"— !
" Dear Marguerite, do ask him," said Miss
Gerard, bursting into feeble tears.
Marguerite hesitated.
It was not a pleasant mission, but there
seemed no altera stive.
Conducted by the stewardess, she knocked at
the door of No. 14, one of the best cabins on
board.
"If yon please, fir," Raid the voluble woman,
"here's three ladies as supposed they were to
have 14, and there's only U left, as there's no
ventilation and only two single berths, and if
yon wouldn't n:ind changing"—
The state-room door opened,
A tall figure darkened its expanse, and Mar
guerite dropped her traveling shawl with a low
cry.
"GeofTrev ! oh. Geoffrey !"
" Marguerite, is it |X)ssible that this is you ?'
" Yes," said Marguerite, recalling herself in
stantly. "I am going to Italy."
His face blanched.
A hard, strained look came into all the fea
tures.
"On your wedding tour, I suppose ?" said
he. "I have heard of Mr. Alcotte's devotion."
"No," answered Marguerite, quietly; "as
companion to two ladies. I am earning my own
living now, Geoffrey. Uncle has turned me out
of doors. and even mamma has left me."
"Why?"
The word escaped like a fluttering bird from
between his closed lips.
"Because I have refused to marry Mr. Al
cotte. Because I was true to the man who, it
seems, has forgotten me."
" Never, Marguerite !" he cried. "My treas
ure - my love, listen, and you yourself will con
fess that I am guiltless of blame."
And then, still standing in the state-room
door. Geoffrey Rossmore fold her of his ship
wreck and of the long fever that ensued and
his slow homeward progress.
He had written more than onee, it si em*d.
hut his letters, intrusted to can less n sseugers,

The Russian army is cvmpostd as fol
lows:
First The army of the South, which
was formed in September, under ilie
command of the Grand Duke Nicholas,
with lien. Nisp, llgiski as chief .f staff,
comprises four complete army corps,
each with two divisions of infantry, one
of cavalry, ami artillery in projvortion,
four Battalions of ehaeurs, two dms
lOUS of Don I' s-sa •ks, four regim. Nts of

is the junetn n of tlie Bouiuanuui au.i
Russian railways.
Seoond—The r-serves of the army of
the Smth. consisting of four divisions
of infiuitry, four battalions of chasseurs,
one divi--ion of cavalry, and artillery in
prvijvortiou. These trov.ps, encamped iu
Podolia, repti sent a total of from 70,tX>0
to 80,000 men. Thus the Russian forces
intendevl to operate upvui tlie 1 hum U
numbv-r aKuit 280,000 men, ami this is
tlie estimate which has been formed as
to their strength by Gem klapa iu a let
ter to tile AVut" /Vf i' yVt - .
Thiol—The .svast artuv, which will
have to keep watch over the Crimea and
tlie movements of the Turkish tie. t, has
been formed of two corps which formerly
behmged to the army of the south, am'
numla-ring, together with the garrison
of Bender, Ackermoun, Kertch ami
Otehakoft", about a hundred thousand
men, who are under the command of
Gen. Kenn-ka.
Fourth—The army of the Caticuui
comprises, inclusive . f the reserves re
cently dispatched to it, ninety-tw > bat
talions, eighty-two squadron* or aotniua,
twenty-five batteries, ami some irregular
cavalrv, consisting of Mussulman volun
teers from Tidis.Daghestau ami the Cas
pian sea. Gen. Melikoft' is in command
. f this army, which is estimated to nurn
ber 150,000 men.
It may, tlierefore, be said tliat Russia
has now in line half a million of men,
from which total must be deducted a
fifth for non-combatants ami ineffective*.
But during the last month she has been
organizing and putting on a war footing
nine fresh army corps ; and there is in
addition the imperial guarvl, commanded
by the czarevitch, ami consisting of
three divisions of infantry, two of cav
alry, three brigades of artillery, and one
of chasseurs.
The Invalid E IIUVAC, which is the
organ of the Russian minister of war,
has also published a table of the Turkish
forces at the end of the war with Servia.
According to this journal, the total of
the Turkish forces in Europe did not
then exceed 867 battalions and eightv
three squadrons, making in all 250,060
men and -It 18 guns ; ami those in Asia,
165 battalions ami sixty-four squadrons,
making in all 120,000 men and 3'-2 gun*.
New levies have been raised sr ce, hut
the Involute does not tliink that Turk, y
can now dispose of more than 450,000,
many of whom are irregulars. The In
valid? also estimates that about 50,000
Turkisli trvxips will be employed against
Montenegro, that there will lie 00,000 at
Widdin, 20,000 at Rustchuck and Silis
tria, nn<l about 8,000 ut the extreme west
of tlie empire, upon the Dauulve. A
little further south, Turkey will probably
have 40,000 meu attached to the army of
the Danube, and will defend the "line
from Varna to Schumla with about 25,(kit).
A Plucky American In England.
son of the American minister in
England and a party of country roughs
got into a t*i-****l tlie other day. The
story, as told '• v •rrc*poudcnt, runs
thus: Young Pier.-epoiit isstudymg with
an English clergv mm, rector .if Holme-
Pierrep. Nt, n<-ar N- ftingham, the region
from which his aiice.it. .rs are said to have
come. A few Sundays ago, a* the
worthy rector was aiming fr> n church,
in company with hi* son, young Pi.-rre
|>out and an Oxford tutor associated
with them, he found a partv of voung
fellows near by, stripjssi to the waist
and bare-lagged, running a foot-race.
He remonstrated with the young men,
using rather severe language. There
were eleven of them, sal wart fellows.
The clergyman getting in the way, one
of the racers ran against him and knocked
him down. The son of the minister,
being by, knocked down the Nottingham
rough. Another coming up, he dealt
him a blow which sent him to the
ground. By this time the whole crowd
was upon hirn, and the Oxford tutor
came to the rescue, but <ff course they
were wonted. Meantime theelergvman
and his son sto-sl by looking on. Probu
b]y they did not approve of lighting, mid
so th v let the young American and tin*
Oxfo '. tutor get Ix-n'en without lending
a han I. The roughs were tried for as
sault and fined two guinea* each. On
the whole there was nothing to be
ashamod iff 111 the behavior of Pierre
pout, aud even the aocuaed nt the trial
expressed admiration for his pluck.

and the beast then turned his attention

ended the combat. Mr. Peggington lay

Crniocs PBOPERTIES OK A PLANT.—
There has lately been discovered in
Nicaragua a plant which has electro
magnetic properties. If you tear off a
branch you experience an effect as though
you struck a battery. The discoverer
could not by careful analysis detect any
magnetic metalic substance in the sur
rounding soil. The intensity of the
shock varies according to the hour. At
night it is scarcely perceptible. A two
p. M. it is strongest. Birds aud insects

"ami tlie families average 1 won't

The writer went through the narrow
jvassiig.-s and up the stairways of the
tenement house, and wrapped at a .l.s.r
in the fourth sUiry. An old lady ad
mitted him to a room that was scantily

to make up its miud whether it ha 1 ever

established himself on a basis of wel
come by saving that it was a flue child,
which was the truth. He ask. ,1 how old
it was, and Mrs. lx- 'ley said: "Four
days, sir."
"Audit is your twelfth .'' lie ven
tured to say, deeming it imprudent to
risk mentioning the number that the
officer had statist.
" Oh, sir," ami Mrs. Kelley's favv,
anil brogue that refuses to be represent
ed m print, indicated mild rt scntment ;
"this is my seventeenth."
" Ma'am, you have gixd reason to ln

" Thirty-s.-ven, sir.'
" And how old is your oldest ?"
" Ninetei-U. 1 was just eighti-. n years

The old woman who hail admitted the

had impart 1 the ku -wledge m words,
that si.o w ... Mrs. Kell. v's mother, ami
that she t *>k t-> hers. If a part .ff the
merit of Mr*. K. ih y's achievement. The
facts that fdie imparted, without stopping
much t<> take breath, were as follows :
The husband. Patrick Kellev, is a hib T
er, alsnit ten years older than hi* wife,
and lie brought his family to this coun
try from Ireland in 18115. They had
child been uiarrnxl a year when their first
was Ixirn ; next came three girls at inter
val* of alvout fifteen mouths ; next, after
a year ami a half, IHIV twins; next, two
girls ami a boy, with intervening js-ri-sls
not r.ueh varying from a year and a
! quarter; next, another pair of twins,
but girls, after a lapse of a little over a
year ; and the six other but!:* were less
than eighteen mouths apart. All were
healthy as babies, yet fourteen died
early—of "ail kinds of disease*," the
• ltd woman aai.l, but not of constitutional •
disorders, she was sure. The survivors
are the first b rn and the two voiiugest.
The four-days-old infant lagan to
squall, hut wits easily pacified by the
m ither, who laughingly said: "On, sir.
I know how to deal with 'etn ; the mother
- f seventei'n ought to. Oh, the bother
i of "em."
" You will Is- rewurd.sl one of these
days bv having a gr.>wn-up family
alvuii.lantly able to take rare of you."
"Faith, they don't live to do that.
Except the oldest— a fine young inon,
sir—them that's left is t<s young to be
- of any use."
" Well, you are voung yet yourself,
and I hope that those remaining will
grow up."
" Indei .1, s-> do I, sir. But I expect
to have more."
" Have you any particular number
fixed iu your mind, ma'am i"
"Oh, I don't know. It's some time
now since I've had twins, ami I don't
know why-1 shouldn't again. I'd be
content*-.! if I hail twenty-five altogether.
Don't \ u think anyb.sly ought to be
contented with that size of a family?"
" I do."
The truth of Mrs. Kelley's assertions
ai to her children was sustained by the
family record, iu varied penmanship, on
creased and yellowe-1 paper. This docu
ment, kept in a Bible <>f much newer up
pcarnnee, b ire entries of the mnrringe of
Patrick and Bridget Kelley iu 1857, of
the birth* of seventeen children to them
ill nineteen year-, and of the deaths of
fourteen.
The writer again congratulated Mrs.
Kellev, frightened the baby to the
verge of convulsions by a well-meant at
tempt t > play with it, nn.l withdrew.
On Ins way >ut he in.-ff the officer, who
remarked : " Didn't I t 11 you so ?"
" You told tli" truth. I've seen the
motlu-r and her seventeenth child. Now,
Pil like to see the father."
"There's no telling where to find him,
for he works here, there, and every
where. He's a sober, industrious mnn ;
but they do say that he was fairly carried
away when the seventeenth baby was
born." " v
" Elated, cli ?"
" You l>et ; and he celebrated the
event with a party of friends "
" Royally, eh ?"
" Well, Kelley's a steady, nice man—
not given to drink in the least, vou under
stand—hilt the night that }iis seven
teenth was born"— The officer stopped
short, relapsed from tlie manner of a
man who has begun to tell a funny story,
took on the manner of a man who feels
that silence is a duty, and added:
"Elated, yon said? Yes, Hir ; Kellev
was elated."
A Contra*!.
The Tuscan women look old before
their time, are sallow eomplexioned,
and their appearance, an well as their
mode of life, is very different from that of
the natives of the Kotnagna. There the
women are splendidly developed, vigor
ous, healthy, and possessed of extraord
inary muscular power. They present a
contrast to the men, who leave nil the
hardest work to them. You see along
the Komnn road lending from Ravenna
to Foril, pnrtirsof women coming Inden
with heavy weights of cut wood. They
walk erect, and their handsome faces
show no signs of fatigue. By their side

The ('ilumhtis (Wis.) Hrpiihliran
tells one as follows: " A four-year-old
child of lb-neon I>. .f. Evans, of Elba,
fell into an otu n cistern a few day t ago,
and nn elder lirother leaped in after him;
hut the latter found it inqiosaible to
reach the fltsir nlsive while su|>|torting
the ciiild. A largi- Newfoundland dog,
comprehending 11 •• situation at a glance,
ran off to n neighToriiig flehi, bringing
back with him a nuinher of men, attract
ed by the strange actions of the dog. A
ladder was jmt down in the cistern, and
the young man and his charge, half
drowned, were resetted."

in tin' situation, sprang for the horse and
fastened his teeth in the animal's tail.
One of Ins teeth gave way aud the know
ing canine FIUV that lie could not stoji
the horse in that way. 15y this time the
frantic steed was running down Broad
way. The dog leaped out of tli* - wagon,
seized the horse by the nose and suc
ceeded in bringing liim to a halt, no j>ar
ticulnr damage having been done. Ihe
owners of the sagacious dog say that
they would not take for liim." •
("Trent pecuniary distress prevails in
Belgium. Manufacturers have stopped,
