I fear we shall be too late for me ours If we stop to take the next omnibus,’ then addressing a boy who sal next to tbe door, he said, ■\Vould you be willing to take an outside seat, and give yours to my wife?’ Tlie boy uaareraeo scowled un [ilcnsnnt ly, and answered, ‘No, sir, 1 am'nut will iiiflr** Instantly another boy Billing beside George Douglas—for Ibis was the name of the other—vacated his seat, and said, pleasantly, ‘The lady may have my seat.’ •I am sorry to-trouble you to get up,’ said the gentleman. •No (rouble at ail, sir; X can takea seat Willi the driver.’ Accordingly the stage was stornied, and Arthur Gray clambered to Vile top, where be found a comfortable seal, Ui.d nally' enjoyed his ride muoli more illan'Oeorge Douglas, to whom the satisfaction-cl hav ing asserted ids rights was after-ail pro ductive of very little pleasure.

Good morning.” BENTZ «k 60. The preceding con versatlnn will fur nieh a sufficient hey to the respeciive characters of the two boys who have been Introduced to the render. George Douglas had a strong and offensive sense of Imleiielidenco which led to a constant lealousy lest his rightsshould id any way he Interfered with. For this reason he re-olutcly declined making any personal sacrdices lo promote the convenience of others, cdnsidetlng that he would thus lie suffering himself to ne Imposed upon. The natural consequence was, that he had the reputailhn of hi ing very dis obliging, atm was lar from popular among hl A B r?!lS? l Smy 'was the direct opposite of George In the points which have been mentioned. He was as obliging and popular as the latter was the reverse. P Time passed,and both boys lefi soboo'. TfteV were now of an age-to elder upon •some business, and both decided to eider a store— Ho large Is the number of boys, however, who are in pursuit ol Just such n6ltuutlon T tbat-Uiey_fluiULa^maUero/_ difficulty to procure them. Such was rhe case lu'lbo present Instanceboln bo a made diligent inquiry for two pjpdtbs. without being able to obtain Mich a cUuce ah tliey desired.

He could see from the number of clerks behind the counters that a /lire- business uiUst be can led du in the establishment, and bis desire on entering it increased.— (I Catarrh l»y \id tht* receipt ' KOaETT, * -'ktHi K.

You wl I find him in the office, at I lie pud of the store. 1 George followed the direction indicated, and reached the office. Which was a little 100 m partitioned oil - from the rest of the store. ‘He entered, hesitatingly, and glanced at a gentleman who was wilting at a desk. The gentleman looked up as he entered, and George somewhat to bis dis may, recognized in him the person he had refused to oblige in the omnibus some time before.’ • [ have come,’ he said, with some con fusion of manner, hoping, however, that he should’ not be recognized in' turn,' ‘hi apply for the situation wbichyou adver tise to be filled by a boy.’ ■ *lt appears to me,’ said Mr. Egerton, quietly, ‘that I have seen yen before. Were you not the boy who declined giv ing up your seat to toy wife on •one occa sion ?' George did not answer, but looked very uncomfortable. . . *1 see that'you are. lam afraid, m> boy, that you will not suit me.' George wastuniing away in disappoint ment, when Mr. Egerton called him back, . • . •I wish you,’ be said, ‘to understand why It is that I decline taking you. -It Is not merely from a motive qf anger, be cause you refused to oblige me, although, under I bo circumstances, that might be supposed to disincline me to your appli cation, but because it indicated a general lack of disposition to oblige.

George left the store dot a little crest fallen. On the way Le encountered Ar thur, who was entering on a similar er rand. He nodded coldly, hot feeling very social, and-Artbur was a moment ader mtlie presence of the merchant, to whom he modestly preferred his request. He did nut recognize Mr. Egerton. hut the memory of the latter was more faith ful. ' X will engage you at once,’ said Mr; Egertbn, promptly. *1 see by your manner tliat you do not remember the' tuvuryou biioedln me In yielding your you are ot an obli.in* dißpoßUion, and will made a valuable ClerK-’ Arthur's gratification will easily, be imagined.

Now, at the age of twenty-one, ho receives only one third the salary which Arthur com mands.

She was a blonde, with a small, graceful figure and a very pretty face.;. The hair, which allowed by ita waves Its natural tendency to curl, was brushed smoothly back and gathered lutpa rich knot at the haokL' ’lt was such a bother to curl it,’ she said; her chirck was-pale, and the whole face were a‘ discontented expres sion. Her dress was a neat chintz wrap per, but she wore neither coiliir nor nuffa. •What’s the use of dressing up Just for William?’ ’ . Tlie library was Just over the room in which she sat, and down the furnace flue, through the register, a voice came to the voung wife’s ears; it was,her husband a: igiusv, what’s ■» man to- do? .

Bbe’a got the h naok of that drawling whine so pat—’non my life, I don’t believe she Can speak pleas antly.’ ■■■ w Lizzie sat as if stunned. Was this true? She looked in the glass. If not exactly a dowdy, her costume was cer taluly not suitable forau evening, with only William to admire. She rose and sofi’ly wet t to the bedroom, with hitter, sorrowful thoughts, and a firth resolution to win buck her husband's heart, and then bis love regained, to keep It. Tbe next morning William came Into tbehreakfast room, with tils usual cure less manner, but a bright sin'le came on his lips as he saw Lizzie.

We noticed the death of Randolph, about two years stncSe. Parlou, In speaking ot the matter In his Life Jacks m, says:- “Randolph, I believe, was not prosecuted for the assault.” We have lately heard the reason for this from a gentleman who conversed wftb Qen. .laekson on the sub ject. Our Informant’s interesting narra tive is as follows: ■ ■■ During General Jackson’s Presidency, a Purser in the navy, named Randolph, counts, whereupon the President, in pur suance of the powers Invested In him.- ordered Randolph’s name to be stricken from the roll of the navy. Soon after, a new revenue cutter, built at the Wash ington navy yard, made a trial trip to Norfolk, with the President and 'ihe membersof his Cabinet on board. When the U. B. cutler landed at Norfolk, Ran dolph, In a state of Intoxication, rushed on hoard, and made an assault upon the President, which was fiercely resisted by the latter, when Randolph was hurried away. Home days after, the gentlenian wdio relates this Incident, in company with a member of Congress from Penn sylvania, called on the President in his ofiiee at the White House. The conver sation turned upon the Norfolk trip, aud it was remarked that Randolph had been arreatedsfor the assault, when the old Genera , fixing from hie seat, and In an excited manner, said: “Yes; I greatly regret it, and have ordered Ills release, if I had not been interfered with, I would have punished the scoundrel on the spot. I do not want the aid of the law to pro tect me dr redress my wrongs. My dear mother, God bless her, when I was a boy Have TOO this piece of advice : Never to she idf- slander, indict for assault and battery, or permit a personal assault to go unpunished on the spotand God knows I have moat religiously adhered to it throughout luy life,’’ aud,dashing a long stemmed white clay pipe, which he had been smoking, on the mantle-piece, aldiig side of wllloh lie was erectly stand ing. broke It into atoms.— Age. jenny Jftml m Hbe la T*-dny. From a letter describing'Jenny Lind’s recent appearance In Exeter Hall, Lon don, we quote the following: ,i we waited very Impatiently through Herr Goldschmidt's ambitious ' Instru mental Prelude,' anil through the first of Ids jerky choruses.

If there be such things as perfect grace of 'clumsiness; perfect beootyof homeliness, ehe has them ; aud they are more lasting, than the grace of graoefu - ness or the beauty of good looks.- As It Is with her foce, her movements, her at titudes, so It is-with her voice.

NET GENEIUL lIOAB. Hr* lloar’a Enlosy on Ibe tato S«erotary Mantou, Washington, Jan. 18,1870, Hon. E. E, Hoar, Attorney General &ir ; I was not present in court yester day to hear vourreuiarksou Mr. Stanton, but to-day I was shown a newspaper re* p »n of them, Which I presume to.be per fectly accurate. The following paragraph has struck me with surprise-: •• But it is not of the lawyer, eminent as he was in the science am) practice ot the law, that men chiefly think as they remember him. His service to mankind was on a higher and wider field. He was appointed Attorney General by Mr. Buchanan on the2oih of December, 1600, In one of the darkest hours of the coun try’s history, whenj,. the Union seemed crumbling to pieced,, without an arm raised tor its support; when, without the puhll£CoUD*el9 was doubting, and within were tears; when feebleness and treach ery were uniting to yield Whatever de fiant renollion might demand, and good men everywhere were ready to despair of the republic. Fur ten weeks of that win ter oi national agony and shame, with patriotism that never wavered and cour age that never quailed, the true Ameri can, happily but alone, stood manfully at his post, “ between the,living and the dead,” gave what nerve he could to timid and trembling Imbecility and met the secret plotters of their country’s ruin with, an undaunted front, until belure that' resolute presence the demons of treason and civil discord appeared in their own shape, as at the touch of Ith urlet’s spear, and fled baffled and howl lug away.” This statement was carefully libemtely written down before you 1 ’de- livered it. Vou spoke for the American bar as its organ aud official head, and yoo addressed the highest tribunal iu the world, kuowiug'that your words were to go upon its records aud there remain for ever. X take it for gomted, under these circumstances, that no earthly temptation could make you deflect a hair’s breadth iroui the la'cts as you understand and be lieved them. The inevitable conclusion is that you must have iu yourppssession, or within your reach, some evidence which convinces you (hat wbat you said is Che truth. I am .sure you will excuse me lor asking you to say .what that evl deuce Is* The paper ! have transcribed irom you)* address sounds like the autho (Wll ve nummary ol a historian, as be hookT ' You baVnSfIWIjMPS chapter o' or" I unity Impertinent Unit prompts an Ame icau citizen to inquire wliat judgment ft is founded upun. Besides, X bare some iriends whose reputation is deeply in volved in. the uflairs vou pronounee upon with so much confidence. Moreover, I have a personal concern in yourremarks, for I am one of Mr. Stanton’s colleagues and am as liable as any one of them to be taken on your statement for one of the ‘•secret plotters of their country's ruin." Be pleased, therefore, to.give me the in formation I seek. Do you And on the records of your of fice any thing which shows that Mr. Wanton was in violent or dangerous con flict with "demons of treason and civil discord,’.’ or any other description of de mons? Did Mr. Stanton himself ever lay claim to tho heroic character you as cribe to him or declare that lie had per formed those prodigious feala of courage while be was in Mr. Buchanan’s cabinet? Has any other person who was iu a con dition to know the facts ever given you that version of them which you repeated to the court ? If yes. who are th. wit »ssam7- wnunpamouijir 'tHugM w»» hft exposed to which tested bis valor, and made bis " undaunted front" a thing so wonderful in tbedescrlptlonofit? Whose “feebleness and treachery was it that united to yield whateverdeflai.t rebellion might demand?” and how did Mr. Stan ton’s courage dissolve the combination or defeat it» purposes ? , Y«u say that for ten weeks “ he stood manfully at his post, between the living and the dead.” Now, when the first law officer of tho United States addressed the Supreme Court on a special occasion, and after elaborate preparation; ho is presum ed to mean .omelhlng by what be says. How is this to be understood ? You cer tainly did not intend to, assort mer.ly that he stuck to his commission as long as he could, and gave it up only when he could not help it. . Standing manfully at a post of any kind, and especially when tha stand is made “ between the living and the deod," has, doubtless, a deep significance, if one could but manage to find out what it is. Who were the dead and who were the living? and how did it happen that Air. Stanton got between them 7 What business had he between, them, and why'did he stay there .for ten weeks 7 These questions you can easily answer, arid the answer is needed ; for, in the meantime, conjectural Interpreta lious are v*-ry various, and some of them injudicious to the dead and living afore said, ns well as to Mr- Stanton, who. no cording to your representation, stood be tween them. I can comprehend the well worn simile ol Ithuriel’s spear, but I do not see what on earth was the use of It, unless you thought It ornamental and original, for you make Mr. Stanton, by bis mere presence, and without a spear, do what Ilhurlel himself could not do with the aid of that powerful Instrument. The angel with the spear compelled a demon to lay aside his disguise, while a mortal man dealt with many demons, and not only made’them all appear In their pro per shape, but drove them “burned and howling away" out of his 11 resolute pres ence ” I do not object to this because the figures are'mlxed, or because It is an extravagant outrage on good taste. The custom of the , times allows men who make eulogies on thoir political friends to tear their rhetoric into rags, and If you like the tatters you are welcome to flaunt them. But 1 call your attention to it in the hope that you will talk'like a manor this world, and give us in plain, or at tease intelligible pmso, a particular no count of the very important .transaction to which you refer, together with the at tendant circumstances. I suppose you have no thought of being taken literally. Your description of Mr. Stanton conjur ing demons is only a metaphorical way vou have of saying that he frightened certain had men. I beg you to tell me who they were, and how he soared them. ; —ire uefi t not'clrergod, and in mv opinion could not be Justly charg ed with the greatsln of fabricating state ments like these. You have, no doubt, seen or heard what you regard as suffi cient proof of them. What I fear is, that vou have been misled by the false ac counts which partisan writers have in vented, not to honor Mr. Stanton, but to slander others. . If you bad known the truth concerning his conduct while he was Attorney Gen eral, and told it simply, you might have done great honor to bis memory. Ho was at that time a regular built, old fashioned Democratic Union saver. Ho believed in the constitution as the fun damental levy of the land,as, the bulwark of the public liberty, aud aa the only hriutl by'which the States could be right fully held together. He regarded bis of ftqial oath as a eolemn covenant with bla aid and ula country, uevor to be violated under any circumstances; aud ho had a riJbl wholesome contempt for that cor rupt code of morality which leaches that oaths are not binding upon the rulers of a free country when they And it Incon sistent with their interest w-keep them.

He appears to have a mortal dread of telegraph poies'especially; and it is for tunate lhat these are on both sides; to fall off, twice In succession on the same side always, it would get monotonous af ter a while. The creature has shied at everything he has seen to-day, except a hay-slack. He walked up to that with uu Intrepidity and recklessness that was astonishing. And it would fill any one. with admiration to see how he preserved his self-possession In the presence of a bailey sack. This dare-devil bravery will bo the d ath of this horse some day.
