"No, no, 'twould have no charm for von, it is my wishbone, and I have sole right to the test. Here, Doltie.you may mil with me," and Alice tarried to her ittle tive-year-old cousin, and the two pulled. Alice was triumphant, winning her wish in the larger half ; she then ran across the hall and fastened the boue over the }iariur door. *• Now," saiii she, with a laugh, " uow we will all be on the lookout for the • conquering hero.' " " Shall yon surrender unconditionally, Alice ?" asked her aunt Carrie, with s keen look at Alice's flushed face. " Que must, lo fate, musn't one I" ctnrned Alice, with another question. " Cela depend, one makes one's fate, iftcr a fashion, sometimes ; therelore i would advise you to he cautious how yon trifle with voura." If aunt Carrie intended her words to carry au undercurrent of meaning, they reached their goal in Alice's understand ug. She knew now that her aunt had noticed her indecision and wavering over certain questions to which she must soon give decided answers, and -he felt that aunt Carrie's advice was needed. It was not an unusual quandary for a young, pretty girl to be in, that of hav ing to make up her mind to say either "yea or nay"' to two men whose happi ness hung upon her lips, bat it was a I rying one. On the one hand, there was jHwition, talent, energy, to choose ; on the other, wealth, flneiooksand winning manners ; and with both, devoted love. Alice had procrastinated and delayed determining .which she would take, until fcotli lovers chafed at her irreao atones*. Her heart had be.ii touched by ueikier f these suitors ; that citadel wis as yet oipregnable onto their eaaulta. Had t never been khtAea ? Ah, hid beneath ' ie ontx mils there was a tender apot a certain knight had pierced —and rode away, and tins little secret sore .Alice was trying to forget, and had -ehooled herself at last to believe it was bat a fancied pang, and one that either wealth or position would cause her to lose even the memory of. It had been a "summer flirtation, this knightly episode. Alice had spent the seas* it, a year before, in a little uountain village. He had been on a -ketching tour in the same region ; they had met, and talked, and read, anil rowed for weeks together, then one morning he made a little picture in her album, wrote hia name thereto: " (Jer ome Reid Kuight," and mounted his charger and rode away. That was ail, and yet the fortress "had been taken, Alice's heart went with him. Nobody knew how she watched, and waited, to see or hear from him after, bat never, on street, at reception or ball was her handsome Knight to be found ; he had ridden out of her life it seemed that summer morn, lint not out of her thoughts. Was it hot strange that with two devoted, ardent, warm lovers, the girl should constantly compare one oold •ureless one S But it was just this mu tant reoollection qf her that delayed her "yea or nav," and Dr. Ellis Fane, and Mr. Frank Metrill, rising young physi cian, and agreeable young millionaire, with all their advantage* were weighed and found wanting. Mrs. Canfleld, Alice's aunt, with whom •>he made her home, had noticed Alice's roabled hesitation on the choice of theee two eager hirers, anil was woman enough to suspects third had something to do with it, ami liaving beard some little hint of Alice's summer flirtation, she thought lore was the reason that neither position nor wealth gained the lay. That Christina* morning two pretty gifts had been sent Alice from her lovers. One, a basket of riire winter blossoms with a note from Dr. Ellis Fane, asking her to wear a rose for him that night as a token of consent. The other, a costly jewelled chatelaine with all its pretty accompaniments, from Frank Merrill, nnd a warm letter of affection, begging her to " wear his eliains now and for ever." Tbere was to be an informal gather ing of friends in Mrs. Can field's parler that evening, and as Alice stood before the mirror arranging herself for the oc casion, she played a little game with Fate. Firtt, she fastened a " red, red rose" in ber glossy brown puffs and ■ •oris, then she hooked the silver chain of the beautiful chatelaine, with its fan and tablet, and vinaigrette, around her slender waist, then she smiled and nodded her head, and whispered to her pretty image in the glass : " Either becomes you, my dear ! If Frank Merrill walks in under the pracle toward me first, down comes the flower ; if Ellis Fane be the conquering hero, I cast my chain and wear roses. I have decided, my wishbone shall tell whom I am to marry !" Notwithstanding she jested in this light, heartless manner with her future, there was a nervous tremor around her heart after she came down stairs and ' entered the rooms. Her aunt and cousin were entertaining some guests at the ex treme end of the salon, when Alice heard steps ascending the stairs and the voioes of her two lovers were borne on to her ears. Was it to be rose or silver ? " Walk is—Miss Abbot will be pleased to see yon, I assure you." It was Dr. Fane who spoke, and Alice began to tog at the chain, then ah# looked np and be held (Jerome Beid Kmgnt walk in under tlit wishbone and oome toward her. TIM room swam, and amidst the greet ing and explanation which followed, Alice murmured some incoherent words about " surprise, pleasure, superstition, etc." My friend Knight came down to Canfleld for his Christmas, Miss Abbot, : and discovering he had root you on# summer up iu the mountain*, I made him sure of a welcome hero with ui* tonight." "You were quite right. I>r. Fane, replied Alice with • warm blush. "1 am truly pleased to see Tour frieud, as well us my summer acqusiutanci. whom I feared had forgotten me " It would be impossible for one liav ' tug seen Miss Abbot to forget tier." amid Mr. Knight, with n earnest look. " i have been abroad since our adicttx were made among the mountain*, and have | thus boon deprived of further acquain tance witli my friend* at home." " Mr. Knight h* evidently been to 1 France, aud acquired * laleut for com : plimeut," returned Alice smiling. I. ml t u "to Mr*.

Alice ! t may hope then, that you will lie longer put um off with evasive answer*. It la ye* ?" Ellis Fane whispered tbeae words with a warm h*4 of admiration at the leaiitb ful head which was decked with his flowers. Alice grew pale.

Humane Society, the silver medallion was unanimously voted to Miss Grace Vernou Russell, a young lady only six teen vear- of age, and the bronze medallion to Samuel Inaaca, her colored servant, for saviug life under the follow ing circumstance* : On the Ist of De > ember last the screw steamer Georgette sprang a leak at *ca in a gale off Cape Ltwin, during the voyage from Fre mautle to Port Adelaide, and was stranded at a place called Kalagup, aliont eight miles aonth of Wallechffe Hoase, the reaideuce of Mr. A. P. Bus sell, and fifty miles from tlie township , of Baoselton, Perth. Hearing of the ac cident, Miss Bnsaell, aided by her col ored servant, rode on horseback down a very steep cliff at full speed to the , scene of the diaaater, ami found tbe l>oat capsized in two and a half fathoms of water, and the paasengera clinging to her. Miss Bunnell lost no time in riding her borae into the sea, and after the greatest difficulty at length succeeded iu reaching the boat, accompanied by Isaac*, and, with as many women and children clinging to her and her horne as possible, she made for the shore, ami placed them in safety, the man Isaacs afterwards returning to the boat and saving a man who had been left there. There was great danger of the horse being overturned by the fierce anrf. Had this been the case, both the animals and their rider* must have been lost, as the backwash is something fearful on the steep ooa*t where the accident oc curred. 1/ong Names.

Through the exertions of Mr. Newell a sufficient sum of money had been raised to defray the et|>eiiaea of a decent burial, and the pall-bearera were four newsboys who had been compan ions of Riley's, and a delegation of about thirty newsltovs accompanied the remains. At the next newsboys' dinner there will be a vacant aeat at the herd of the table, draped in morning. For seven year* past that seat has been oc- ! eupied by Johnny Riley, who was always given the seat of honor in conse- ' qnonce of his deformity and diminutive . size. He was in hia fifteenth year, and ' had been a uewrsboy for about ten vearw. | Prairie Dogs and Rattlesnake*. It lias been heretofore stated that prairie dogs and rattlesnake* form part nershipeand live together in the house | of the former. A gentleman of St. ' Louis, who has carefully observed the i habits and customs of the prairie dog j villages, say* that this is a mistake. He say* that in the prairie dog village there are manv houses that, for one reason or : other, have been abandoned by the dog*, and that rattlesnakes finding these vacant take possession and use them for their dans. At first night there asm* to be peoca between the snake# and the logs, but this peace is only a truce. 4 The dogs are so much more num-n-us j than the Miakea and fight so bravely in ! defence of each other, that the snake* are afraid to make war on them i at>out the villages. The prairie dogs are j so peacefully disposed that thev uever j attack any animal except in defence, j consequently rattlesnake* are tolerated j and let alone. Hearing a prairie dog making a great fuss near a thicket, past which he was ruling, this gentleman says that ou recouuoiteriug he found a prairie Jog defending her youug from the furi ous attack of a rattlesnake. He dis mounted and killed the rattlesnake, which was five faet in length, the twc> dogs, meanwhile, hiding in the thicktd , Retiring tiehind the thicket, he watched 1 results. The old dog came out first ' from her hiding-place, aud, approach ing the snake timidly, aoou *otiafied herself that it was deed. She than ran to the thicket, aud returuiug with the young Jog, they ran about the dead anake with every expression delight. Leaving the young dog on guard, she ran away to the village, and aoou re- j turned leading a troop of at least one hundred dogs. They liinl a noisy meet- ' ing over the remains of their enemy, | many of them spitefully scratching the dead body, atter which thev conducted the rescued mother and souliouie at the ' head of what was quite like u triumphal ' procession. Phenomenal Bivalve*. Oyster dealers report a curious and somewhat startling fact about oysters this season, whicli make* them very careinl iu buying lest they find them selves with a load ou hand which is afterward found to lie worthless. A great many of the oysters that reach Light strict wharf when opened look ss if thev had leeu eugsgtsl in s hente.l family qmirrel. resulting in blows, out of which they hail eome second liest. Tlieir appearance is decidedly unfavor able, preseuting, as they do, a redtliah and altogether uninviting nstvot. Wlien cut tiehind the heart or lietween the gill* with a knife blood spurts freely, covering the of the hand person holding them us il it iiad been cut instead of the oyster. The bhsxl thus produced greatly re sembles that of a human being in color ami substance. Oysters sometimes have this peculiarity when spawning, but for them to have it at this time of the year is nnusunl aud hardly accountable. A prominent dealer says he has heard ot others noticing it at different periods, but he haa not for the part fifteen years. It is confined mostly to oysters gathered in the waters bordering on the Western Shore, saving a few streams from Thomas' Point to Cape Henry. The Eastern Shore is not altogether exempt, as some oysters caught iu Pooo nioke Sound, Miles river, and around Sharp's Island have the s.unw appear ance and peculiarity. It is supposed that they were caught in very deep water before the frost had time to touch them. Oysters when in this condition are worthless, and as soon as discovered they are sent back ami de|>oitod again in the water to remain nnt.il well touched with frost. They are then edible, and are taken up and brought to the market. Baltimore American. A Runaway Boy Invited Home. The Logansport (Ind.) Pharos con tains the following: On the 11th of last August Edwin Rock Taber, a lad fourteen years of age, five feet high, square build, large blue eyes, freckled fsce, uneven teeth, and of polite and manly bearing, left his father s home in this city. He was afterward seen in Lafayette, Ind., but before his father could reach there ha had taken his de parture. Paul Taber, Eso., the father of the boy, is a worthy and highly re spectable citizen of this city. While he and his exoellent wife were mourning over the boy who had causelessly strayed from his comfortable home, a still great er affliction was visited upon them. In one week four of their remaining chil dren died of diphtheria, three of whom were bnried in one day. It is believed that if the affliction that has fallen upon his fond parent# as known to the absent Eddy, he wonld return at once to his home.
