the scißirr of smms,
The omnibus was already crowded with
a full complement of passengers, when a
sigual was made by a gentleman stand
ing on the side-walk. The driver drew
up, and be, with a lady who was accom
panying him, advanced to the steps.
‘I am sorry to intrude,' he said apoln
getloally, observing that the omnibus
was full, ‘but my wife being unwell and
about to take a Journey. 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. He was,
moreover, .Indignant with Arthur for
Yielding Ills seat, being more than'half
conscious that to Hie rest of the paa-eu
gers Arthur’s conduct had appeared in
a Such mure favorable"light than:- Ills
own. When tliey reached their destloa
llon, the boys resinned company, and
George began to assail Arthur on the
course lie had taken. "
' -For. my part,’ said he, ‘I don t believe
in pul ting myself to Inconvenlenct; Just
tooblige a stranger. I think Ill’s an im
position, tlieir getting install When tliey
B %S e voS l «l^'S',^W^oeg c ..;.c.nBn
explained that he wished to gfet on a par
ticular train of cars.’ , • " .
‘Then tliey might have stood up, ami
not tried to oneat.the other passengers
out of their seats'.'
‘He was willing to, but hiswifoswas
unwell. That was the reason of their
making ajouroey.’
•Then It she wanted a seat she,might
have staned eariltr.. Because people j
wort’t be in time, I don’t know as I am
bound, to sacrifice my convenience to
'"‘‘There might have been reasons that
we don’t know of for the delay. Be
sides, you know that at this time of the
murulug the omnibus is pretty sure to be
101 l by tbe lime it reaches the point
where they got in.’ '
•How much do you expect to -be paid
.fordefondiugthem?’ asked George, with
' ‘Nothing at all,’ said Arthur, with a
smile. ‘But I confess 1 feel better satis
fied witli royselt when X have.done any
one a favor, even at a little sacrifice on
my part, than when I have refused.’
fVbu must have a very leuder con
dolence,’ said George. In Ihe same disa
greeable maimer. ‘Thank goodness, I
urn not troubled in that way- 1 believe
in standing up lor one’s rights. If we
don’t do It we s‘'all be pretty likely to
got imposed upon at every step, Just ns
you were lids morning.’ -
•Is that the way you look upon iw
asked Arthur. , . „ ,
•Yes,’ said George, *1 think you allowed
yourself to be loosed upon. - Of course
it Isu’t anything to me, if you like it,
only I don t choose to follow your exam
‘Then we shall each follow our own
wav ’ said Arthur, ‘and that reminds me
that I turn off here. Good morning.”

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

Going to the counter, be addressed one
of the clerks: ,
‘Can I see Mr.- Egerton ?’ . :
•Yes. 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. Now, id

very Importanftblng that those who are
employed should be as affable and otilig
ing as possible. One who possesses these
qualities will sell from two to three times
us much as one who is deficient. . You
understand, therefore,-the reason why 1
decline to take you.'
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

George Douglas did not succeed in ob
taining a place for some time. Now, at
the age of twenty-one, ho receives only
one third the salary which Arthur com
mands. He complains bitterly of this,
hut does not take the only mean* to

TUB VTAT TO KEEP UIM,

fretfully, a- her husband ruse from the

‘Yes; I hove an engagement with

I wasn’t rich ; he didn’t marry mo for

so much neglect?’ And with Iter mind
fllted with suoli frightful queries, Lizzie
Hay-a fell-asleep onthe sofa. ■’ ■
Let me paint Der bies ,aa she lay lhere.
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? . I
was disappointed, ami I must hay- pleas
ure somewhere. Who would have fan
cied that Lizzie Jervis, so pretty and
loving, could change to the fretful dowdy
she la ? Who wants to slay at home to
hear his wife whining ail the evening
about the servantsaud her headache, and
all sorts of brothers ?-. 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. A p'ettj
chintz, with a heat collar and cuffs of
snowy- linen, with a wealth of Bolt, full
curls, had really metamorphosed her;
wlill • tbe blush her huslmhd’s admiring
glance called np to tier cheek <lid not de

thought there must he a guest, bnt glanc

"'‘Coins William, your coffee will soon
be cold,’ said Lizzie In a cheer.ui and
votetf.
■u must cool mi you sweeten my
breakfast with a kiss,’ said her husband,
mossing the room to her aide, and Lizzie s
heart bounded as she recognized the old
lover's time and to aimers.
.-lot one fretful speecn, not one com
plaint fell upon the ear of ,William
through ihe meat. The newspapers, the
usual solace at that, lay untouched, as
Lizzie chatted pally on every pleasant
aiihWct she could think of, warming*-
his grateful Interest and cordial manner.
‘Will you be nt home to diuper? fine
Raid, aa he went out.’ _
'Can’t to-day, Lizzie! I have hualnesa
out of town; hut I'll he home early to
tea. Have something substantial, for I
don’t expect to dine, Oood bye, and the
smiling look, warm lively whis

In a low whisper; ’Oh I what a jooj.jt.

loved her husband with • real
wifely devotion, and her Ups would quiv

friend Moore, but like a brave little wo
man, she stifled back the bitter .feelings,
and tripped ott lo perfect her plans. The
grand pi mo, silent for months, was open
cdund the linen covers taken from the
furniture, Lizzie thinking:
‘ ‘He shan’t find any parlor more attrac
tive than his, I am determined.’
Tea-time came and William came with
It. A little Ugnre In a tasty bright silk
dress, ’smooth.curls, and oh I such a love
ly blush and smile, stooli to welcome
.William as he came in; and tea time
passed as the morning meal bad odrhe.
Alter tea, there was no movement as us
ual toward the hat raok. William ‘mod
up beelde the table, lingering, chatting,
till Lizz ■ also arose. Hho led tliui t» the
|lubt, warm parlors In their pretty glow
of tasteful arraugeiqpnt, aud drew him
down beside her on the sofa. He fell as
if he was courting again; as be watched
her finger busy with sniQp little needle
work and listened to the cheerful voice
he loved so dearly two years before,
‘What are you making, Lizzie?’
‘A pair of slippers. Don't you remem
ber how you admired (be pair I worked
for you oh I even so long ago?’
' ‘I remember, blaok velvet with flowers:

fenders and dyeam of blue eyes and 1
bri-'bt curls, aud wlaln d tbe time would:
move faster, to tbe day wbeu I could
bring my bunnie wee wife home, to make
music in my bouse.’
Lizzie's luce saddened for a moment as
she thought of tbe lust two years, and
how tittle music she hud made fur hls :
loving heart, gradually weaning It from
Us allegiance. Then she said:
‘1 wonder if you love music as much

'Of course I do.' I often drrp In at

‘1 cun play and sing better than Mrs.

‘But you' always say you are out of
praslide when 1 ask you.’
‘1 hud the piano tuned this morning.—
Now open It and we shall see how it
sounds,’
William obeyed joyfully, and tossing
aside her sewing, Llzlle took tbe piano

' Anecdote of uonorat iMknn,
An Incident that made a great senna;
tion six and thirty years ago, was the
assault committed by a man of the name
of Randolph, upon President Jackson.
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

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 uniformly,.,behaved ;jyith “ modest

I nald in surprise: ‘You are not putting
