"Such a bargain, Attnt Fanny! Lay
aside your work and epress your admira

oollars for one dollar. So nicely scolloped
and stitched; just the thing Tor the morn

"Exactly, Julia, They are a very de
sirable addition to your bridal wardrobe.
But I cannot Mit regret that they were not
higher priced."
"Why, aunt Fanny! you astonish me.
I had no idea that you were one of those
ladies who think nothing worth having
unless it cost an extravagant price."
"And you are much in error if you
think so now, Julia. But in looking at
your cheap collars my sympathy is called
forth for the poor seamstress, whose weary
fingers performed the task which wax to
procure her a wretched subsistence."
"Mercy, aunt Fanny! . How deep you
look into things. It is enough for me that
got the collars chroP. I shall not trouble
my head as to the maker of them. Be

as she noticed a cloud upbn the brow of
her auditor, "yaa have fcitgotten the sew

adays."
"Not quite, my young friend. I have
had a peep behind scenes. The scolloped
collars are not stitched by the machines;
weary fingers, as I said before, perform
the task, for a compensation which will
hardly sustain life. You must remember
that when the collar reaches your posses
sion the wholesale and retail have both
secured their profits, and still you justly
regard them as cheap. Only think then
what a mere trifle must have been paid
?or the making."
"0, it is all very true, aunt Fanny; and
I am sure I pity the poor as much as any
one; but as long ess this evil exists I may
as well reap the benefit of it. You know
it is an ill wind that blows nobody

"Too long, aunt. Fanny; but my time
has been so much occupied. My neglect
has not been frolp want of affection, for
you know that I love you as well as if you
had a right to the name by which I love

A PEEP BEHIND THE SEEEEM
was no one to watch over each developing
trait, of character—to cherish the good
and gentle and‘refully remove the evil.
Something of this wap done at times by
aunt Fanny, who had been an early friend
of Julia's mother; but her opportunities
were limited, and the lovely girl grew to
womanhood a creature - of impulse rather
than Axed principles—a luxuriant and
beautiful, but an unrestrained, unweddod
plant.
At seventeen she became attached to
Henry Lawrence, a young man of good
family and unblemished character. Her
guardian heartily approved the connexion,
but as Julia stated to aunt Fanny, prefer
red that the young couple should wait
until Henry was well established in busi
ness, but this prudent advice was not fol
lowed. Henry's prospects were good—
Juba had a few thousands. Why not be
gin the world at once ? So on the very
day, when by a peculiar conoidenee, the
bridegroom was twenty-one and the bride
eighteen, they stood at the altar and
plighted those holy vows which bound
them together for weal or for woe.
All was sunshine thew.' The present
was delightful, and the future bore the
rainbow tints. Years passed ere the dark
clouds of adversity gathered round them,
but alas! they did gather, and the bright
sunlight faded away until scarcely one
beam found its way to those once happy
hearts. Affection for each other still re
mained—but even this was chilled and re
pressed by their earthly misfurtnnes. In
some few instances the spirit may rise tri
umphant over the trials of the body, but
in far the greater portion of mankind spirit
and matter are indissoluble, and the af
flictions of one must unavoidably affect
the other.
We will pass over that; train of misfor
tunes which had at length reduced the
young conple to absolute poverty and
want. , Ixnprudeneo in their style of liv.
ing, failure in business, long and severe
illness, were the producing causes. Few
would have recognized in the r anxious,
care-worn looking husband, and the feeble,
dispirited wife, the exulting bridegroom
and happy bride of former days. -
There were others also to share their suf
ferings. Three lovely children had been
born to them. One had passed to the
spirit world, the others remained to endure
the trials of earth, Sad was the father's
heart as he gazed upon them, and tears
stood in the mother's eyes as she pressed
them to her bosom. The eldest, a sweet
little girl of seven years, hada distinct re
collection of a happier home; and, although
with a prudence and sensibility beyond her
years, she never reverted to it—yet her de
voted affection, and her peculiarly quiet
and somewhat melancholy disposition
evinced her sympathy with the trials of
her parents, The boy was much younger,
and knew of naught but poverty.
Aiction should have drawn the hus
band and wife nearer together- 7 -but, on
the contrary, as we already said, misfor
tune seemed to chill and repress the love
they had borne to each other.
Unaccustomed to seat owatrol, or to the

economy which was no necessary. She
became irritable and morose, anal:bought
lesaly added many a drop to the bitter cup
which her husband was drinking.
"Is there no hope of your obtaining the
situation with Mr. Markham which you
mentioned some days ago?" she suddenly
asked, as her husband rose from their
frugal meal, one cold mornipg in the early
part of winter.
"None at all," was She reply. "The
present clerk has decided to remain."
"Then we may make up our minds to
starve," was the despairing reply.
The gentle little Fanny drew nearer to
her mother, and clasped her hand fondly,
while the husband replied soothingly:
"Not so bad as that, Julia. Even my
present situation is better than nothing.—
Three hundred will keep us from starv
ing!,
"It were better to die, Henry, than to
live in this way. Life has lost all its
charms for me, and I would gladly- be at
rest."
"But our children, Julia, Think of
them and keep up your; courage a little
longer. The day may yet dawn upon
us."
"Never, never. My own folly has
brought this upon me. My guardiairwarn
ed against marrying one not well estab
lished in the world, but I slighted his ad
vice. Thank God, he is not here to see
how bitterly I have lived to repeift my
rashness."
"And do you really regret It, Julia?
We may regret the imprudence in our
former style of living, and we may sorrow
for the misfortunes which have come up
on us, but we need not repent of our mar
riage,"
"Was not that the cause of all ?" was
the bitter reply. "It is of no use to dis
guise the truth."
Deeply grieved, the husband turned to
leave the house. On the threshold a gentle
touch detained him.
"Mamma is siok and sorry," whispered
the soft voice of Fanny, in its most plead-
ing accents
The appeal was not to be resisted, and
the father stoop%d to kiss her white for.
head as he replied:
"I know it, love. Do all you can to
comfort tier."
The cloud had passed from his brow and
Fanny Was satisfied, but it was more dif
ficult to quiet the self-reproach of the
mother. The day was a sad one—and
When an hour or two before the usual time
for his return, Henry was borne into the
house by two men, and the unhappy little
family were told that an accidental fall on
the ice had resulted in a. brdkon leg, - the
last drop seemed to have been added to the.
already brimming cup.
- From the night of agony which follow
ed, Julia was a different, and, in some re
spects, a better woman. Hitherto there
had been a lingering feeling of pride which
had prevented her from coining forward at .
her husband's side to struggle against the
misfortunes which had come upon them.
She had shrunk back despairing and pow
erless. Now she was roused into energy..
Her husband, her children would look to
her for .bread. It would be long ere Hen
ry could resume his labors, and their
slender means would soon be exhausted.
Something must be done, and with, the
consciousness of what devolved upon her,
came an earnest prayer• , for strength—a
lookbv upWard which was not her wont.
Her education bad been somewhat showy
but far froin thorough, and' she felt quite
incompetent to teach-any of the various
branches to which she had attended. No
thing presented itaelf to her mind but plain
sewing, and il4s she watt well aware would
afford them but
Still it would be better than nothing ,
was at once made to a
neighbor, and through her influence work
was speedily obtained
It Was soon evident that this exertion
wale not uncalled for. The pain of the
broken limb and the anxiety of mind pro
duced by his situation brought on a fever,
and for many weeks Henry Lawrence
hovered on the borders of the grave.
The grief of the wife was overwhelming
as she watched over him and listened to
the wild ravings of his delirium. He was
again the lover of her youth, the husband
of happier yelre. Each hasty word, or
unmerited reproach came to her ears with
fearful distinctness, and earnestly did she
pray for at least one look of recognition,
one word of forgiveness and love.
But the hand of the destroyer was stay
ed, and feeble as an infant, the husband
and father looked once more'upon his lit
tle family and bade them bless God that
life was spared, and that reason again re
sumed her throne.
Almost exhausted in body and mind,
but with a heart filled with thankfulness,
Julia redoubled her exertions for ;their
maintenance. Every moment of leisure
during the day, and many weary hours of
the night were employed in finishing those
garments for which the compensation was
so small that it hardly sufficed to supply
their absolute necessities.
Often when her employers would urge
her to abate a few pennies on the usual
price, and assure her that it was for her
interest to work cheap, she would sigh
deeply as she remembered her own feel
ings in - former days, and the truth of aunt
Fanny's words forced itself upon her mind.
The sufferings proceeding from the want
of union of the employer and the employed
were now her own.
And where was aunt Fanny during this
lapse-of years? Faithfully and unwearied
ly had she performed the duties which she
had taken upon herself. That tafk was
now ended. That aged relative, to whose
wants she had ministered, had at length
gone home. Once more Fanny's heart
turned to her native land. Friends of her
earlier years rose before her, and she long
ed to meet them again face to face. The
few necessary arrangements were soon
made, and ere many weeks had passed she
had once more crossed the broad ocean,
and was welcomed with kindly greetings
by many whom she had known so long.
One of her first inquiries was for Julia,
for it was very long since sho had heard
from her. News of the failure of Mr.
Lawrence in business had reached her,
and rumors of various undefined misfor
tunes had from time to time come to her
knowledge, but not one word of direct In
formation. The mother of ittlia had been
a very dear Mend, and aunt Fanny felt a
yearning for her child
At first it seemed difficaltto trace them,
for most of their former acquaintance had
lost sight of them in the humble sphere in
which they were now moving. But aunt
Fanny was indefatigable, and the difficul
ties of the task only gave vigor to her re-
solution.

some information," she said to herself, as
she ascended the steps of a handsome

liberty of calling upon her."
"Not at home, madam," said the spruce
looking waiter who answered her ring at
the bell.
An echo of the words met her ear as she
turned from the door.
"Not at home! I thought it was the
poor only who were not at home,"
The simplicity of the words caused her
to observe the speaker attentively. 4. lit
tle girl of seven or eight years stood gazing
wishfully towards the elegant mansion.
Her large dark eyes, clustering ringlets
and delicate skin formed a' striking con
trast to the miserable garments which
served a scanty protection against the
chilling breeze. And yet there was an
effort at neatness and even gentility in her
dress, which could not escape the obser
vation of an attentive observer, and which
gave evidence of better days gone by.
Irresistibly drawn toWard her, aunt
Fanny paused near where she stood and
said in a kind voice:
"And why did you think that it was the
poor only who were not at home, my
child ?"
The little one hung her head, but an
swered modestly:
"Because I never feel at home now that
we are poor, and I know that mother
never feels at home, nor father either. It
is like staying in a strange place, But
then if we are all good we shall all go to
God's home. Is not that a comfort?"
As she asked this question she raised
her eyes and looked with great earnestness
in aunt Fanny's face.
Tears dimmed the eyes of the kind
heartCd old lady as she replied:
"It is Indeed, my child. But tell me
your name and where you live, for I shoilld
like to be a friend to you."
"0, thank you, ma'nm. And perhaps
you would be a friend to my poor father
now he is so sick, and my mother works
so hard. My name is Fanny Lawrence,
ma'am, and I will show you where I iive
if you will come with me."
k. few brief inquiries convinced aunt
Fanny that she bad found the object of
her search, and giving her hand io her
little guide, with a voice trembling with
emotion she bade her lead her to her
mother.
The day had been a discouraging one
for Julia, even more so than usual. A
little exertion had brought 4 - 41 Henry's
fever again, and the physician who was
summoned to attend him had spoken in
strong terms of the absolute necessity for
perfect rest and freedom from excitement.
How was this possible when hour after
hour he must be upon his back and see
his wife toiling beyond her strength for
maintenance! 44 then it was some
times difficult to procure work, and Julia
absolutely trembled as she thought of the
sufferings they must undergo should this
means of support be cat off. Some kind
neighbor had advised her . to ` apply at a
collar manufactory near by, where many
women and young girls fund oonstant
eanyloyment. . She had done so with SRC-
loess, aryl at the moment that her old friend
entered she was gazing mournfully upon )1
dozen collars which she hid taken upon

sewing machine, and she had engaged to

and she seemed lost in a sad reverie, from
which she was aroused by the soft voice Of
Fan
"lilen -

Julia looked up in surprise as Fanny

Composure was at length restored, and
then there was so mush to tell sind to be
told, that the good lady took off her bon

quite at home, and pass the evening with
them.
! i." You cannot be at home here," said
Fanny, "because it is not pretty enough
for home."
Julia sighed as her child•epoke, but aunt
Fanny answered:
"Home is wherever we Sind those we
love, little one. It matters little in what
place we And them. So this is my home
for the evening, and now, Julia, as your
husband needs attention, just give me your
work and I will sew for yon. Xy thimble
is in my pocket as usual. You see I retain
my old habits."
"You are still the same dear aunt Fan
ny," was the reply. "Here is my work—
to bind these collars. Do you remember
our conversation the day I purchased those
cheap collars? Every word of it is fresh
in mind. I was very thoughtless then—
but 0, aunt Fanny, I too have now had a
peep behind the scenes."
"You have, indeed, my poor child; but
now to your husband, and when he Is oom
fortably arranged we will sit together by

BLIMARCK
Ills Character and POileY—FriendshiP
for the Vatted ataats.
The following extracts from a letter
written to the Tribune by its well-known
correspondent, G. W. Smalley, in 1866, at
the close of the Prussia -Austrian War, de
scribing "An afternoon with Count Bis
marck," have a renewed interest at 'the
present moment:
"The opinion we have to America that
Bismarck is King of Prussia, and that the
other Is King only in name, is a wrong
opinion. The royal authority is a very
positive fact in this country, and would be
so with even a weak King on the throne..
But the lining NollarAl. ttionst
man ?I , grea t , Intellect, is a man m strung
matters, and_will not, if he can help it, be
led blindly about, nor submit himself read
ily to the guidance of any one. He re
quires to be persuaded, and will do no pub
lic act till he sees, or thinks he sees, it is in
accordance with hjs (ma views. There is no
country in Europe where the traditions of
the kingly rule are more potent, and no
King who abides more firmly by his own
convictions based upon hereditary opinions.
In the divine right and grace of God theo
ries he believes profoundly. There was
nothing from which he more shrunk than
a war with Austria, which was to him the
natural ally of Prussia and the represen
tative of Imperialism in Europe. It was
step by step that he advanced to the col
lision which his pride as a King and his
judgment as a politician both told him
was against his interests. But William is
soldier as well as King, and when affairs
came to such a crisis that he deemed his
honor as an officer pledged to war, then,
and then only, was war possible. It has
been, one may suppose, not the easiest
part of Contit Bismarck's task for the last
four years to conduct along his own path,
which le4 inevitably though not visibly,
to war wah Austria, such a man as King
William.
The administrative system of Prussia has
been much praised. It is in fact a system
full of contradictions and difficulties. In a
service from which the King cannot're
move his officers: at will, discipline is
nearly impossible. The Government of
Prussia is neithOt a proper constitutional
Goverttkoeut, in which the authority of
Ministers is dependent on a vote of Parli
ament, nor an absolute Government, in
which they, are dependent only on the will
of the King. The acquaintance with the
affairs of war, of finance, of justice, er..c.
But the assent of these Ministers is necces
sary to be obtained for any measure of
foreign policy also, which cannot be adopt
ed till a majority has approved it • • •
When the former Ministry resigned in 1862
they bad brought the King into collision
with Parliament, and there left him.
Count Bismarck, in assuming office, found
himself obliged to continue this conflict.
On the question of the army the Bing and
the parliament could not be as one. The
army needed a radical change in ite
organization and having been mobilized
in 1859, that opportunity had been taken
as most convenient for the increase of the
regiments. Tc-day every one sees that
this step has proved essential to the suc
cess of Prussia, but its neccessity was
what no one would then believe, because
the exigency of to-day was not foreseen
and its probable arrival could not be safe-
7 explained ca. predicted. But the regi
ments were increased, new officers were
appointed, for whose pay there was no
constitutional provision. and other large
expenses were incurred. Parliament de
nmnded that all this should be undone,
-but to disband tie regiments and discharge
the offieers was Impossible in view of such
a future as has since arrived; nor could
the money which had been paid ont be re-
called into the treasury. The budget,
which Parliament denumded.should be
annulled, represented in !het, for the most
part, stuns of 'Looney already disbursed.—
The conflict was, therefore, not only it
but incapable of adjustment
without abandoning a policy essential to
the safety of Prussia, or without such ex
planations of that policy as would have in,
sured in advance its defeat.
"in respect of foreign policy," said Count
Bismarck, "I forsaw that' the roorgiusined
army wawa necessity; that upon it, and
not Upon Parliaments, or Speeches before
ditiner•or 'Ober diuner, must Prussia 'de
pend fbr her hope of nationality. A na
tion she then was not,- in the high sense of
that word, nor was there hope that with
taw unitsattold frontiers and Outlaying
provinces her people should.grow to think
themselves one. The territorial configura
tion of the country was a source of weak
ness not to be obviated by even a tar
stronger sentiment of nationality than then
existed, and it Was before all things es
sential to the future of Germany that
there should be first a Awaits ablli to in
sist on its opinions. I repeat, to declare
such a policy in advance was to defeat it.
The King would have opposed it utterly,
Austria would have been forearmed and
supplied with weapons, foreign courts
would have scouted it as visionary, or have
actively thwarted every step toward its lie
gempliatunent. To-day the work is done,
but its final success I look upon as assured. •
North of the Main - Germany is one. •

at all anticipate the conflict would take the
shape it has. She was not at all =friend
ly to Prom* but expected surely to sze at
the end of a three months' conflict both
parties exhausted, no doubt, but Prussia
having the worst of it. Then she was to
step in to help Prussia--of coarse fora a
consideration, which Prussia was to be in
no position to refuse. The sudden andex
traordinary success of Prussia alarmed the
Emperor of the French in the prospect of

The nationality of Prussia lay iu her army.
With the army as it was In 1839 it weuld
have been impossible to tight. Two-thirds
of her force was comprised in the Laud
wher (the militia), unavailable for instant
necessities, and the ranks were filled with
men who had families and wished nu war .
It was necessary to break that up. I be
lieve the Liberal party of Prussia now sees
that a policy has been pursued during the
last four years tending steadily to one end,
and that the means employed were, if not
the only, at least a sure method of reach
ing it. They clearly see that it was hal
possible to make such explanations as
might have removed the necessity for the

passed over. I will only add tl.at while
the Minister President evidently finds his
abilities often sorely tasked to persuade
the King into his views of foreign and
home policy, Count Hisniarek, as a Prus
sian, is animated by a sentiment of loyalty
perfectly genuine. He way speak of the
King at times with some freedom, but he
will always serve him faithfully. "You,
as a Republican," said Count Bismarck,
"cannot understand the feeling with which
when called to the Ministry Is proffered my
services to the King. For four or five
hundred years my ancestors had served
his. That I should tell him when I thought
him wrong was not less necessary than
that so long as I 'continued Minister I
should obey. When it became impossible
to obey it was possible to resign." There
is a contrast here which will not fail to
ssaggest itself. On one side the Ministry,

eign. This is none the less human nature
because it happens to be a contradiction.
It is taue also thkt loyalty to the Crown is
a national sentiment among the Prussians,
and that the throne of the Hohenzollerns
stands firmer to-day than that of any royal
King, as King, w. fch would surprise
who are accustomed to think of Liberal
ism and Republicanism as one.
The conversation touched briefly on
American topics;
"In enr relations with the 'United States,
1 I never had a doubt. The Tory party in
Prussia, to which I am supposed to belong,
at the outbreak of your war, besought the
King to recognize the South. I opposed
it inflexibly. To me it was clear that the
North only could he the true ally of Prus
sia; with the South we had nothing in
common, The Government of Prussia
never wavered in this friendship for yours.
[The sentence was uttered proudly, and
the burning eyes flamed brighter than
ever.] It is a traditional policy xi ith us.

European Sovereign to recognize your in

LOVE AND BE HArrv.—lt is the easiest
thing in the world to be happy if men and
women would only think' so, Happiness
is only another name for love; for where
love exists, in a household there happiness
must also exist, though it has poverty for
a close companion. Where love exists
not, even though in be in a palace, happi
ness can never come. He was a cold and
selfish being who originated the saying
that "When poverty comes in at the door,
love flies out at thelVildow," and his as
sertion proves conclusively that ho had no
knowledge of love; for, unquestionably,
the reverse of the axiom quoted is nearer
the truth. When poverty comes in at the
door, love, true love, is more than over in
clined to tarry and do battle with the ene
my. Let those who imagine themselves
miserable before they find fault with their
surroundings search in their own hearts
for the true eduse. A few kind words or
a little forbearance will often open the
way to a flood of sunshine in a house dark
ened by the clouds of discord and unamia
bility.
