"It was my first visit north sinco 1
bad iiiicen up my abode and entered
on the practice of my profession in
Now Oilcans. '
In the city Of -.New York I had a
very dear friend, , .
old , chum and
classmate, George Dickson; and as he
was the only person, I knew in the
great metropolis, of course 7. lost no
time in looking •him up.,
Throe years. li,ad passed since our
last meeting, bat fen could scarcely
have produced a 'chane more marked
than had taken place in the appearance
and Manner of my friend.
Our first woofing and friendly in
quiries over, I longed, yet forbore, to
ask the cause of 'my friend's meliineho
ly. I fdt sure, in duo time, of being
made the confidant of the secret, pro
vided no motive of detieacy prompted
its concealment.
That, evening, in my room at tho
hotel, George told me his story. Ho
had formed an Ktiachment for a young
lady, whose graces of mind and person
be portray ed with all the fervor of a
lover's eloquence. She had returned
Iris a ffeetion,but her lather had opposed
his suit, having set his heart on the
marriage of his daughter to a nephew
of his.
This nephew was a young physician,
of 'profligate character, my friend as
sured me—but that may have been
prejudieewho had long but unsuc
cessfully wooed his cousin, to whom
his proffers were as repugnant as to
her father they were acceptable:
Some months since, Mr. Parsons, the
young lady's father, had gone south
on business,
accompanied by his neph
ew. At :glow Orleans ho had been
seized by sudden illness; which tormi•
tinted fatally in three days.
On the day preceding his death he
executed a Will, (which had since been
duly proven by the deposition of the
attesting witnesses,) containing a sol
emn request that his daughter, to
whom he left the whole of his estate,
should accept the hand of his nephew
in marriage, coupled with a provision
that in ease the latter offered, and she
refused, within a specified period, to
enter into the proposed union, the en
tire estate divised to the daughter
should be forfeited to the nephew.
To sacrifice her fortune to her
heart's choice would not have cost Ju•
lia Parsons a moment's hesitation ; and
nothing could have more delighted
George Dickson, than so fair an oppor
tunity of showing how superior his de
votion was to all considerations of per
sonal advantage. But her father's dy
ing request, in Julia's eyes, was sa
wed. It had surprised and stunned
her, it is true, for, in their many con
ferences on the subject lie had never
gone beyond the most kindly remon
strance, and had never oven hinted at
anything like coercion.
Young Parsons had not the magna
nimity to forego his ungenerous ad
vantage. lie might have boon content
with his cousin's fortune alone, but his
right to that depended on his offer and
her rejection of an alliance which she .
felt in conscience bound to accept. The
brief season of grace, when she bad
been compelled tp bog oven, with tears,
had already almost passed, and a few
more days would witness the condem
nation of two lives to hopeless misery.
At the conclusion - of my friend's nar
rative, in which, for'reasons that may
hereafter be developed, I felt a pecu
liar interest, I prevailed upon him to
accompany me to a place of amuse
ment to which I had previously pro
cured tickets. •
When we reached the theatre, the
performance bad already begun ; but
we succeeded in finding seats which
commanded a lair view both of the
stage and the audience.
In a few moments George touched
my elbow. "Ouserve the geqleman
nearly opposite, in the front of the par
queue, sealed next tbe column, lean,
ing his:arm on his cane," t o'yhisperld.
I looked in the direction btdicated,
and saw a tuco whose str4ting mum-.
blame° to one I had seen before caused
me to start with surprise.
"Who is it ?" Z asked;
"Eldridge Paredes," was the reply.
"The nephew of whom you spoke?"
"I'b9Pnile," may fri.e l 4. cipirMo.l
-
"Does he resemble, his unatiPi I I
was on the point of inquiring, but just
then the strunger'drew the glove from •
hie right hand, and' I saw that the
firsi joint. of the middle finger was
wanting,: a circumstance :which, for
eutricient ieasoo, 'absorbed my atten
tion.
"Do you know„ the exact date of
Mr. Parson's death ?" 'I asked, when
he had gained the street at the Close
of t,he performance.
"Yes," said, George, "it was the 23d
of December., Ills daughter received
telegritnt"fkim her cousin announc
ing the fact the same daY., But why,
do you ask?"
"I have a , reason which may;or may
not prove a good one," I returned; and
stating that I had busindis engage
ments for the wliOle of the next day, I
parted with my friend, promising to
meet him on, the following evening.
. Next'afternoon found roe at the
of
fiee of Dr. Parsons.
"Dr. Parsons, 'I presume?" Were the'
words with which I accosted thdoken
demon I had seeU at' the theatre.
"Yes, sir."
"You May not remember me, Doc
tor, but,d I.Mlieve we haye met
"I bek:pardsm, air, Mr not recollect,
lug *the oCeaSion."' ,
'You were in, New,'Orleans last win
ter, were you not 1"
"1 wa's," he answered, with some
embarrassment. •
"I'm the gentleman on whom, you
oalleeto dra,l a will."
ALICE' CAR 1
He turned pale, but made no reply.
"I saw a record of that will in tin)
Surrogate's office this morning," I re . -
sinned, "and I—"
"You speak of my uncle's will;" ate
hastily interrupted.
"And yet," I ,continued, "you said
it was'yours - when you applied to have
it Writteft., You represented yourself
as,deOrous of executing such a,docu
rnent' preparatory to embarking on a
perilous voyage. The 'paper was
drawn according to 'ythir instructions,
leaving the date to be filled at the time
of signing. Your: locks were gray
then, and, you c6itainly loOked old,
enough to 'have ra, ma . r - iMgeable,d a ugh-,
ter, but your dis . guise was not perfebt,'
and I pointed to the mutilated finger.
"What do you mean ?" be shouted
in a defiant tone, springing to his feet.,
"Simply that your uncle's signature
to that paper is a forgery," I answered,
rising and confronting him. .",Ife died
on the twenty-third of December, and
your own telegram to that effect is in
existence. It was on the twenty-fourth
the day before Christmas, that you
called on, me to piepare the paper now
on record as his will. The inference
is plain ; you undertook to manufac!
ture this spurious testament after your
uncle's death, and, wishing to clothe
your villainy in legal form, you pro
cured from me the required draft. You
or some ono at your-instigation, simu
lated the signature of your uncle. The
witnesses, who have since perjured
themselves in their depo itions, were,
procured in some way best known to
you rst. If----"
"Enough, sir!" he ejaculited "You
have shown yourself in possession of a
secret tile custody of which may prove
dangerous." •
"I am not unprepared for your
threat," I replied. •"In the first place,
I did not come hero unarmed; in the
next, I have prepared a full written
statement of the facts to - which I, have
alluded, With information, besides, of
my present visit to_yourself. ,This pa
per will be delivered to the friend to
whom it is directed, unless within an
hour I reclaim it from the messenger
who has been instructed for that
length of time to retain it."
His face, greW livid. His frame
quivered with mingled fear and rage,
and his eye gleamed like that of a wild
beast at bay.
"What is your purpose ?" he ex
claimed in a voice hoarse with sup
pressed passion.
"To keep your secret while you live,
on one condition."
'Name it."
"That you write instantly to Julia
Parsons, renouncing all pretensions to
her band, and absolutely withdrawing
your proposal of marriage." .
After a moment's pause, ho quietly
seated himself at his desk and hastily
penned a brief note, which he submit
ted to my inspectioh; it was quite sat•
isfactory."
"Be so good as to seal and address
it," I said. Ile did so.
"I will see that it is delivered," I re.
marked, taking it up and bowing my
self out.
When I met George Dickson that

BY W. P. FOX
As many queatiOns aro asked. me
concerning the origin of coal, . have
concluded to write a Short , article, on
the same, for the benefit of,Parties in
terested. A fovi days ago a man in
quirecrif I did not think that the coal
grew on earth just as we find it. , An
other ono wanted to know Han! infin
ite Jehovah did not make the coal out
of rocks, and another if (od didn't
make the coal the same time ho did
the earth. One would not suppose
that such vague ideas could exist in
regard to this common article, but
such is the case. Some few profess
ers in geology disagree in regard to its
origin. -Some think it originates from
a tarry or pitchy substanee'•isduing
from vegetation ; but the most reason
able theory advanced 'is that" - `of Sir
Charles Lyell, that coal is the prbilcie-
Lion of primeval forests. He claims to
have.a positive proof of this, from the
fact that he once visited a-coal pit in
Europe' where a -large tree was
im
bedded, a part of which !Was meta;
orphosed into coal,.while' the other
p ml an of the tree , Was- ' wood, no
transformation having taken place:—
This solutioh - of the matter is getVeral-,
ly admitted by the geolo g ical frater
nity. Coal beds then were once vast
forests of timber and vegetation.
The transformation of vegetable
matter into coal is going on now in
different parts of the earth. In the
peat-hogs of Maine, a. substance; has
boob found resembling cannel coal,and
the same substance bas been found in
the peat-bogs Of Ireland.-
A great proportion of the plants :of
the coal measures were ferns, next to
these the Sigilluria, which were un
doubtedly the most numerous plants,
and larg ely contributed to, the forma
tion, oiconl. The Sigitlarie ,when
brown in a large tree, is from two to
three and a halt feet in diameter, and
forty to seventy five • feet high.. These
trees haye been found both in the cOal•
mines of America and Europe, ,same-.
times standing and sometimes, hori
zontal. About one hundred and fifty
or sixty species of plants have been
discovered in the coal measures of this.
country, and some ,three hundred. end
forty in Europe: • - •
Could we go buck theitsands of years
in the past to the ,time when these
primeval forests waved, in .beauty and
grandeur,
what,a spectacle, would be
presented to tlre - bolitilder. - 'Here upon
our prairies,. towering forests reared
their lofty forms, kissing the clouds as.
it were. Silence reigned triumphant
ly,,only broken by the singing winds
discoursing soft, melodious music
through the dense cavalcade of trees,
which in after years went to make up
our enduring beds of coal. This si
lence reigned for ages, and ,vegetation
continued to grow. Finally another
era dawned upon the world. Storms
of violence began to gather in the
heavens; the winds came and ~the
mighty forests trembled under their
terrible pressure. The clouds thicken
ed (kirk and deep; the earth was en
veloped in gloom; the lightning darted
along the black sky and the thunder's.
peals fairly shook the earth. The tor
nado burst forth in all its fury, and
with the aid of the lightning 'perform
ed its mighty work of, devastation and
destruction. Still on, on the hurri
cane swept with unabated fury, till the
once beautifill forest was laid waste
with its wrath, and havoc reigned su•
promo: No pen can describe, no pen •
cil paint the scene. After this silence
reigned again for a time. Then the
internal fire of the earth, which had
been secretly - working for ages, began
to manifest itself. Nearer and nearer
it mune rolling on, rocking the earth
like a cradle, till at last, with a crash
that shook the earth from center to
circumference, the ground opened, and
the fire burst forth, throwing up mol

matter. - Volcano after volcano
emitted forth its burning lava. Earth
quake after earthquake heaved up
chains of mountains, making valleys,
gorges, ravines and hollows—and en
gulfing forests in the mighty wake.—
These floods and tornadoes did not all
come at once, but long intervals inter
vened, between which the drift swept
to and fro, carrying vegetation with
it and depositing it in various places
along the.earth. The alluvium wash
ed over it, and together with the earth
quakes, which also came at intervals,
and the sinking process buried it deep
in the bowels of the earth. Then
camp other drifts, and vegetation was
again deposited and covered over by
alluvium. and so on till the whole veg
etable kingdom was engulfed in vari
ous strata within the bosom the
mother earth. The earth was then ?,
