Secretaries, &c., » ■ “ How bonnio you’re growing, Nelly,” said Tom one day, as Helen came running up the grass, her hair escaping from the snood, the gay cotton abort gown coming halfway dowu tho stripee linsey petti coat, which was just short enough to show her neatly-clad feet and shapley ankles, coquettlshly arrayed In bright stockings, with elaborately embroidered clocks. “What’s come to tho lassie, wife? She’s breakin’ the hearts of half lads in tho place. There’s Duncan, pulr lad, flent a smile he’H'gie now, but gangs as dour “ Wbeesht, foither!” cried Helen, shut ting his mouth with a rosy little palm.— “ Here’s Duncan cornin’.” As she spoke Duncan stalked up to the door. It was easy to see that something' had gone against the grain ; the expres sion of his face, the tone of his voice, his very gait were changed; his clothes were thrown on with a carelessness unlike former days, and bis eyes, restless and bloodshot, turned uneasily to Helen, os he made some common-place remark to her father concerning the-weather. Helen’s color deepened. Something in the man’s eyes struck like a knife to her heart, and lay there rankling, ma king the hot blood spring to her face, and the hand that had been on her fath er’s mouth clench fiercely as if to beat back some burst of angering indignation. But the flush faded the next moment, and a shudder shook her from head to foot, for Niel came iu from tho hill, and as ho turned the corner of tho hedge, and Duncan’s eyes fell upon him, Helen saw the thick black brows drawn passionate ly together, the big veins start like knot ted cords, and the strong teeth set hard in tho nether Up. She saw' this, and even then her heuatsunk with uu unde fined fear; but it was not until some days afterwards, when the braces were ring ing with the mysterious disappearance of Neil Lesley, that the full significance of that look was revealed to her. CHAPTER 11. Many and various were the reports cir culated, until bk the expiration ot four days they all down into one strong judgment against Niel—a judg ment which Helen’s outburst of grief and pale stricken face unwittingly strength ened ; and it was firmly believed that Neil, having won her love, hud grown tired of her, and, to rid himself of her and his debt of gratitude to her father utonce, had made a moonlight flitting. Duncan openly took little part in all that was said, so much so, that those busy people who are always, in all ranks, looking af ter their neighbors’ affairs, began to hold him up as an example of unselfish gener osity. There was one, however, to whom his silence had a different signification, and fclxvt was weieu, -wto, trmn Uio day tho alarm was given, had remembered that afternoon when she saw, as plainly as if written in black and white, the ha tred unto death stumped in Duncan's face. She alone, watching as none other could, heard tho impatient manner of speech, and saw tho strange look that had qome upon the man’s fuee: and a horri ble suspicion and dread filfeitflier mind, harder to bear than all the cruel thugs raised against Neil’s character. There was one small ray of comfort left—a col ley dog she had given Neil had disap peared the same day he was missed. lie. must be Moss was with him; and if he had run away, as the people said, ho woujd scarcely take such a continual sling to his conscience, ns the luilhlul dog must be. So, In spite of the deadly fears that would at timesover.vhelm her, Helen held fast by hope, hiding her anx iety as best she could by getting away amongst the hills, and wandering about where she would meet.no one to pity or condole with*her. The fifth day had come; it was a busy time, too, for they were gathering the flocks off the hills previous to the shoot ing season, and so it came about that Helen fell in with a flock In a lonely puss on tile road to Ben Ledi, and eager to es cape the shepherds, she scrambled up tho Danas ami ma nerseirarnnngme whins: - 1 Down the pass came the sheep, filling the air with their voices, stopping now and then to snatch a mouthful of heath er. glancing away to the hill side, Helen caught sight of a (jog bound ing down over scaur and bush*; but not until it was nearer, and diverted by tho sounds in the glen, had turned aside and taken its stand upon a rock along the foot of which the sheep were passing, did she recognize her old coliey, the very Moss she had given Niel. Helen’s heart leapt to her mouth as she leant forward to watch tho dog, who falling into his old trade, stood yelping and howling over the flock, waking every echo In the pass, and rousing a perfect storm of bleating. * * Helen tried to whistle, but her lips were shaking ami dry. Then she called him by name. The dog came rushing up to her, and was soon whining at her side, licking her hands and face., As soon us she could see anything clearly through the tears yiat were blinding her, she saw that a blue ribbon was tied round Moss’ neck, neatly hidden amongqt the thick wool. Helen tho ribbon; it had once been hers; and she knew no hand but Niel’s could have tied it there, and—. But suddenly she ceased think ing. She had unfastened the string, and found a little bit of white calico, and read on it written in blood, the words, il Hclp / Jiciver's Cray." Helen cannot tell to this day how she got home; but in a little more than half au hour the clachan was deserted, and mou and women were all on their way to the Reiver's Crag, a barren rock among the mountains, from which it was said a Cumberland reiver had been flung in the old days. The miles of moss and muir land ,were soon crossed, and by evening Niel Lesley was rescued from a living death, and safe, but uot sound, at Tam M’Gregor’s. Sound, poor lad I theywhla-: pered he never would be.again. u He had slipped over the Crag, and iu going down had caught at a whlnbush, which checked the impetus of his descent, and instead of going to the bottom of the cleft, he had fallen on a ledge. Here Moss had followed, but it was the fourth day before he could get the faithful dog to leave him, and bear home tidings that might save him.” Such was the account Niel gave, and such was the story that met Duncan as he came home from Callander, whither he had gone early in the day. Time passed on, and the shooting sea* son brought many a visitor to Tam’s cot tage, for Nell’s story was the romance of (he year. He was still unable to walk, but his health was All right,and the doo*. tore said he might get strong again in time. Niel never complained, nor could he, with such a nurse as Helen fluttering round him, propping him up with fra grant pill&vs stuffed with fresh-gathered heather and bracken, gathered, too, by the little hands that were so strong and ready with their labor of love. It was only when pain kept him restless at night that the thought of being a cripple for life crushed him, and brought out ail the training given by a good mother, and the staunch religious feeling inherent in al most every Scotlsh heart, the spirit that gave the world what Alexander Pemlen culied “the praying folk,” who carried their religion triumphantly through those terrible days when a bloody scaffold was thought a good shelter. It was nearly a month since the day Niel had been carried home from the Crag. Night had just come, still, warm, and almost like twilight. Tam was smoking his pipe preparatory to his early bedtime, the women folk were knitting, and Niel, lying upon a couch the laird’s sister had sent him, was .reading “Bob Roy” aloud, much to Tam’s perplexity, who interrupted many times with tier nunciations against the text. Suddenly the open ooorway darkened, and Duncan stood in the entry. “Welcome, lad,” cried Tam. “Ye’ro jist in time to hear the havers they bulk folk pit in print aboot the M’Gregors.— Read that again, Niel, that whar he says—” Dut Duncan interrupted him.- “Idldnaoross the door to hear lees read. I cam to speak about a lee, to tell ye”—and his voice grew louder and hoars er as he spoke—“ to tell yo that ane ye liked weexisaler. We’re a’frien’s here,” he said, in a different voice, looking around. ‘‘Ay, ay, man. Sit doon,” said Tam. taking his pipe out of his mouth, and turning to have a better look at Duncan. “ Why, what ails yo man I” “Mickle alls me, Tam M’Gregor, and I cam on a grpusorao errand. I nao come to tak’ aWa’ ye’re faith tn man for over* mair, and to shame a hypocrite wl’ the fair truth.” Helen laid down her knitting and drew nearer Niel; Tam glanced at him too. — N lei’s face was cfifioson, and his eyes, all diliated and eagdiv stared up at the great wild-looking man, glowering down upon him, who went on speaking. “ Niel says ho slippet doon tho Crag.— Ee didua slip. An enemy—” “Stop him, Helen I” shouted Niel, trying to get up, but falling, ho pushed the girl towards Duncan. “Stop him, forGort’ssake! ThelaU’smad. Hedoesn’t know what he’s saying. Don’t listen to him, Tam. Ho is a fine fellow and you all hear me say it. Duncan, man, shake hands with me, and do go quietly away, and let well alone.” Duncan’s answer was to drop dowu up on his knees by Niel’s side, and covering his face with hie hands, sob aloud. “Na, na, Niel, I canna let alane. I maun to tell them. Let me bide, lad ; it’s tho fittest place. And when I hae your forgiyeness, I*ll gang on my knees to the Almighty; but lcannaaskHim till I hae . confessed my sin.” “Well, let me tell it, Duncan,” said Niel, gently laying his hand upon the kneeling man’s shoulder. ■ “No!” cr.ed the other sternjy; “I’ll not get the worst, Tam and Helen, lam a murderer, or as bad, for I had the thocht In my heart to take his life. Niel cutme oot wl’ you, Nelly. Mad wl’ jealousy, I said we’d gang to the Keiver’s Crag, and fight, and the best man shall win ye.— Niel wad hardly gang till I telt him I’d ca’him through the country-side for a coward, and then he went. But when I got to the top o' the Crag, the diel got pos session o’ me, and catchin’ him unaware I hurled him ower, thinking deed men tell nae tales. I never thocht o’ the col- Jey. When I heerd tell he was fund. I was like to gang mud. Every futl thocht was a pollis; hut when the days passed, and Niel never tauld, it was war than a'. The hot burnlu’ coals were heaped on my heed t >burniu’ and smotherin’-i' the brain till this gloaming tho thocht cam to muk a clean breest, and then gang awa’ whar I’d never see a kenned face till the day o' judgment. Oh! Niel man, ye Ueu what loving her is; but even you cannn tell what my heart was, and how neither hluid nor damnation were ony worth if I could only ha’ won her here. Ye cannu forgle me, Nelly lass, for I hae made him a cripple; but just say* ‘ Duncan, I’ll ask the Lord to forgie ye,’ and I’ll gang awa' content.” Tam was the last to hold out the hand of forgiveness; but he, too, did so at lust, and then Duncan went away. M Upon the top of the bank ho turned, aud.capin hand stood looking at the cot tage. “Pair lad I he’s prayin', may he,” thought Mrs. M’Gregor, who had follow ed her old favorite to the door. Two years afterwards, and a few weeks after Niel and Helen were married, a let ter came to the former—a letter written by a comrade of Daucan’s and then they knew for the first time that he had en listed, and, going to India with one of the gallant regiments afterwards nick named “Sir Collin's petticoats,” the poor broken-hearted Jad had found tho death he coveted before the walls of Lucknow, and was lying mortally wounded In' tho hospital, where he dictated ids first and lust letter to Niel, bidding him good-by, and telling him to let the Balquhiclder folk know tho true story of tho Bolter's Crag.

That is everybody who is anybody, or wants to bo regarded as such. You and I excepted. I shouldn’t wonder if I should be obliged to go myself. Mrs. O’Lanus threw out some hints on the subject the other day, -that is she re marked that as everybody appeared to be going, she didn’t see why an# couldn’t go lf Europe is such a nice place to why do alt these Europeans come over here, preferring Castle Garden to the Paris Exhibition ? That is what X asked Mrs. O’Lanus, and not being able to get over It right away , she said no more about going to Europe. The difference between our emigrants and our Immigrants Is this: poor folks corao here,' and rich ones go to Europe ; which don’t look like a fair exchange, does it? Europe la a capital place to spend mon ey in, though not worth much to mukoit in, com pared with our own great and glo rious country, where every man is at lib ty to make all he can the best way he knows how, aud as long us he steers clear of the State Prison he is hunky dorey, The effete despotisms of the old world place ridiculous restrictions upon a man’s efforts to get rich. 'When 1 have made more money than I can spend here, comfortably, I may go to Europe to get rid of it. At present with strawberries at sixty cents a quart, I find 1 can invest all my salary in houa hold expenditures. I am sorry I can’t go*with Captain Dun can to Palestine, aud Palestine will no doubt bo greatly disappointed when the party gets there aud it is found that 1 am not with them. But Brooklyn has claims upon me which I can’t forego. I am sorry for Captain Duncan because he counted on having some distinguished individual In the qrowd. The people of Europe, degraded in their tastes by the form of government under which they live, worship greatness, and a distinguished American wtmld have been an excellent card for the party, and as sured them of a grand reception at every port. The Captain has been disappointed ih his lions, lirst Br thcr Beecher backed out, then General Sherman, and my en gagements prevent me from going*. It bos caused several others to back out, who couldn’t thluk'of going unless Beech er* Sherman, or I went along. Brother Griswold stuck to the Captain as long as there was any prospect of se curing a lion. He got over Beecher’s desertion, but when he heard that Sherman had back* ed out, and that 1 couldn’t be induced to. go, he gave up. It will be a nice trip, notwithstanding; the prosp- ctus is enough to make your mouth water. The Captain has secured the steamship Quaker City, the picture of which s hung up in Morris’ picturestorc window, audis quitb a work of art. That is the picture, not the.ship. She is a well seasoned craTt, she has been on the seas for some years, and has never to anybody’s knowledge, or burst her boilers, or any other unpleasantness. The Captain is a nice man, and so is the engineer. As for the cook be is the best bred raan in the profession, and the stew ard is the most obliging creature, and will not insist on the passengers taking their meals regular when they are too sea sick to sit up in their berths and eat any thing. An ample supply of coal will bo taken on board to last to the next stopping place. THE ROUTE to be taken has been marked out on the map-one copy of which wilJ be kept in the pilot-house, so that the captain will know which way to steer, and another copy hung up in the saloon, so that the passen gers may know where they are going to. The course will be across the Atlantic, and in a bee lino for GIBRALTAR, a celebrated British watering place on the Spanish coast, famous for its rock, which was at one time used for candy, until sup planted in juvcuilo popularity by the Chinese confectioners, who introduced pine-apple rock candy and sold it on wheelbarrows at the street corners at a penny a chunk. The tourists will be allowed to inspect the rock at Glbralter, but will not be al lowed to bring ii away. From Gibraltar the steamer will pro ceed by water to VALENCIA, which is situated in Spain, the population of which) is Spanish, a peculiar people \vh« live on raisins. The chief occupation of the mule Spaniards is serenading with guitars dark-eyed senoritas, who dance in Bolero divinely. (I have seen them do It at the opera.) These engaging pursuits are varied oc casionally by bull-lights, several of which will bo got up for the entertainment of the Duncan party. The Quaker City will then sail for MARSEILLES, a city celebrated for white vests and the Marseilles hymn, wnicb is constantly sung by the inhabitants and played in cessantly on thp hrfftd organs. This city Is m France, and the passen gers who want to go to France can get out hero without any extra charge. Ami in order to accommodate those who wish to see the Exposition, a rail road has been constructed between this city and Paris over which the tourists can travel at their own expense. The next place to slop at is GENOA, which possesses especial attractions as the birth-place of C. Columbus, who discov ered America Just three centuries and three quarters ago. None of the Columbus family live in Genoa at the present time, but otherwise the city Is exactly where It was v\ hen you hr Columbus used to play tog and rounder in Its streets. The store where he used to buy marbles and peg tops when a school boy, Is an ob ject of veneration. HOME will be afterwards visited, and the tour ists may wander amid Us ruins and spec ulate in wonder and awe on the dilapida tion of things. There is the Coliseum, us the Romans used to call their Academy of Music. It is a largo building, but in a very bad state of repair, and no enterprising mana ger seems inclined to put it in order and open it for theatrical entertainments. Here-yon may see the spot where Ca*sar fell, which was one of the great falls of history, and is as much, talked about us the Falls of Niagara. The Pope lives here, and the visitors may call on him as if his Holiness has no objection to receive visitors. From Romo the steamer will steam to. Naples, which Is situated in a bay very picturesquely designed, with a volcano in the perspective to enhance the effect. To entertain the Americans , MOUNT VESUVIUS will get up a special eruption, presenting a magnificent pyrotechnic* spectacle, and supply the party with fresh lava enough to set them up in breast-pins for life, Thence the party will proceed to CONSTANTINOPLE, where real Turks may be seen lu large numbers. The Turks are a peculiar people. They wear very wide trqwsera and big beards, like Manager Hooley and Commodore Jones. They smoke long pipes and marry a great deal. The divorce laws In Turkey are very simple. When a Turk bos a wife, more than be wants he puts her in a bag with a fifty-six pound weight and drops her off a ferry boat into the Bosphorus. The Golden Horn is situated here, and the company can amuse themselves with Hates for 2tb»«t|sing.

He tried it once too often and was caught with the cramp in tho middle of tho stream and sunk to rise no more, and became a moist, unpleasant body. .As they were not married Kero had no claim as bis widow for tho life insurance money; and his estate went to bis heirs. Kero died some time after of blighted af fections. Byron afterwards swam the Hellespont to snow that one man could do it as well as auotber, aud Captain Duncan will, swim over to establish tho fact that the Yankee is not to be outdone by ancient Greeks or modern Britishers. After doing Turkey the party will pro ceed to Palestine ana do the Holy Land, the interest of which is fully explained in a book everybody ought to read, and not to give them an excuse for not referring to that authority for further particulars. I will now close my prospectus, which I won’t charge Captain Duncan anything for.

If a man will observe as he walks the streets X believe he will find the merriest faces in the mourning coaches. The reason why so few marriages are happy is because young ladies spend their time in making nets, not in making cages. We have just enough religion to make us hate and not enough to moke us love one auothor. * The power of fortune is confessed only by the miserable; for the happy impute all their success to prudence and merit. Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is per formed in the same posture with creep ing. Small causes are sufficient Co make.a man uneasy, when great ones are not in the way; for want of a block lie will stum ble at a straw. Every mao desires to live long; but no maq would be-old. .Love of flattery, in most men, proceeds from the meanest, opinion they have of themselves; in women, from the con trary. Apollo was held the god of physio and sender of disease. Both were originally the same trade, and still continue. If a man makes me-keep my distance, the comiortis, he* keeps his at the sum? time. Men are content to be laughed at for* their wit, but not for their folly. A man would have but few spectators if he should oiler to show for three pence' how he could thrust a red-hot poker into a barrel of gun-powder and it should not. take Are. * How is it possible to expect that man kind will take advice, when they will not so much as take warning. The latter part of a wise man's life is taken up in curing the follies, prejudices and ful.-e opinions he had contracted in the former. Wouldn’t Give In.—An English cler gyman relates the following amusing anecdote: The most singular reply I over listen ed to was made to me last summer, upon the occasion of our school feast, by a car-, ter boy of about fourteen. Everybody hud exhibited a tolerable appetite, but this boy had eaten to repletion, so that when I saw him suddenly turn very pale, and attempt to rise from the table I began to fear he had made himself 111. “ What’s the matter, my good boy?” inquired I, while a sympathizing throng of philanthropic ladies, who had been ac ting as waiters upon thecompany, gather ed around tbe sufferer. Do you feel un well ? “My stomach aches, sir,” replied the boy with great distinctness. “Dear me,” said ! (almost suffocated with my endeavors to suppress laughter), “don’t you think you had better go home?” “ No, no, sir,” replied the lad with de termination. “It will ache a precious sight more afore I ha' done wP him.” And I am bound to say that he did not submit to tbe threatened dictation, but devoured two slices of cold puddingiu ad dition to his previous supplies, as well os au enormous bunch of bread and cheese. Don’t Drink to Drive Away Cake. —No man is safe who. has once formed the fatal habit of looking to drink for solace, or cheerfulness, or comfort. While the world goes well they will likely bo temperate, but the habit is built, the rail road to destruction is ready for use, the rails are laid down, and thestation house erected, and the train is on thellue waiting only for the locomotive. Well, the first great'trouble or hopeless grief is the loco motive; Jt comes to us and grapples us, and away we go in a moment, down the line we have been years constructing like a flash of lightning. jCSf* The New Britain Record tells the following “ good uu”: “A man (in that town! lost the key to a door in bis house, so taking tbe door ofi he put it into a wagon, drove to the lock smith and wanted a key fitted to the lock. When y|e person requested to fit the key went wagon with a screw-driver and coolly took the lock off the door, it is said that verdancy’s eyes opened with amazement, and he exclaimed, with a tone of wonder— 1 Oolly ! whq'd a thought of doing it that way ?’ ” When the State Constables called at a saloon at Westfield, Massachusetts, the other day, the proprietor slipped the chain from a largo black bear which he keeps, and retired to au ante-room to await results. The officers opened the door and the bear courteously advanced to give them a friendly embrace. The door was quickly shut again, and no sign of a constable has been seen around the place since. The Situation.— An old joke illus trates tills article. ** My friend,” said a seedy individual to an acquaintance at the ferry, “ I wish you would louu me a Suarter to cross the ferry ; I hain’t got a ollar in the world.” “ Well, I would like to know,” was the reply, “ whut dif ference it makes to a man whohosu’tgot a dollar in the world which side of. the river he's on?” I&y* An Irishman, speaking of the ex cellence of a telescope, said: “Do you see that small speck on yonderhlll?

Rev. James Davidson Dyke, a “ loyal” clergyman of Indiana, who used to be extremgly harden ‘‘copperheads,” ' has been arrested fur horse-stealing, and the proof is strong against him.
