David Tliomppop’s now homo was furnished at last, the litter of carpenters, rpnsons, and painters was cleared away, and now he had brought with him his intended wife, that they might plan for fitting it up. David had been engaged three years, but being a prudent young man, he said he could never marry till he had a fair start in the world. He thought he had it now,since, in addition to youth, health, a house and twenty acres of land. Mr. Burch, a great mill owner, had lately made him his foreman, a position he had long coveted. The wedding day was therefore, fixed for September—three months hence. For once in the world’s history nn mm found any fault with Uuwi”«' oU ’ l * urn nappy pair were veiy well suited to each oilier. gallic Hearing, the bride elect, was neither a beauty, a belle, nor a genius— she was just a sweet womanly woman, with domestic habits, and a great many little feminine tastes ami fancies. As to the Dealing family, they were respectable, root ami branch, ami always had been as far back as memory or rec ord could go. ■ At tho present time there. were none ol them remaining in the town save gallic* and her parents, who were getting to l-e elderly when she was born. • ‘lt’s a good house and thoroughly built,’ syiid-David, looking around him with satisfaction. ‘I allowed none but iho best materials to go into ir. It might have been a third cheaper, but I suui no -it’s for a lifetime. , . • ... .. ‘An’d so bright and sunny,’ sa.ut Ndlle, ‘it seems like a home already; home houses strike a chill as soon as you ent. r them, hut I don’t think ours can ever-he one of that kind.’ . H don’t think w>y. house copld with you for Us mistress,’ relumed David; gal in every apartment Sal lie found some thin!!; to praise and admire, Irom the bay-window in the parlor,.,to Urn wash hoilers in the back kitchen, .ripening the door of tho hed-ropm on the ground floor, she remarked: , „ . ‘This shall be father’s and mothers room. It is just near enough to tho par lor for company, and just lar enough oil tobutiuief. You must have planned > on purpose for (hem, soon a dear David as yon are/ and the young lady, laid her hand caressingly «n his arm.

It seems yen did not, how ever, and the explanation nu\y as we i come now as any time. If yon will lhn J ' the matter over, you will see that this thing cannot, be.’ •■\Vhynot?' ‘Because nobody could reasonably ex pect h young mail (o lake such u buiden upon bis shoulders.’ - •But they’ll not be abuiden upon jon at least not much. My parents arc not Pa,l Amr*who’li take care of them in their old mre?’ asked David. ‘Who should, but tho daughter they tool! euro of when she was a hahy . re plied bailie. , 'I want my wife to wait on me.' ‘I don’t Uiiut: I should over fail in my duty to my husband.’ ‘l’m sure yon wouldn t my darling, so now it's settled, and we’ll say no more ab ‘Dnvhi, I put to yon tho same question yon put to me. Who will tnltc my parents in their oh! age! Who, if their daughter forsakes them i ‘I don’fusk yon to forsake them, saU David impatiently ; Unit’s just like y/uir high flown way nf pulling tliitißH.

Answer me that. Of course the same rule holds good lor wo meu too. bo, now dear, let’s urup the suldcct, I haven’t shown j-pu the second f torv yet. 1 hope you will admire this staircase, tor X quite pride myse 11 upon if ’ and tho young i.uan started to lead further,’ said fo’ -»«-<• Duvid pausing and looking buck. ‘That X shall live, where my parents do.’ CARLISLE, PA„ THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1871. ‘Without me?’ ‘That’S'for you (n decide.’ ‘And I have decided. Of all the wo* ion in the world I have chosen you— ut when I marry yon, I do not marry le whole family.’ * ‘Very well, David.’ ‘How am I to understand that?’ ‘That you ami f part company.’ ‘Very well U In then. But let me toll you, tills, I am not a man to be trilled with. It’s now or never with me—’ ‘Never,’ said Sallle. ‘And let me tell you further,.that if you won’t be mistress of this house, there are plenty that will. There’s Jennie Burns, the handsomest girl in the coun try—l won’t say suite’s to. bo had for the •asking, but I have reason to know she thinks favorably of me. As to this freak of yours, it is nothin*? more nor loss (ban sheer ohstimmey under the guise o^tllinl pielv.’ • ‘Hard Words avail nothing, hut this I will say, that whoever you bring here, be it,Jennie Burns oi another, I scarce ly think she can he to you wliatt could have been —I who have loved you bo long and faithfully. And David, when you shut mb out of your life and house because I refused to break tho fifth com-, mamlmentv lake care that you do not shut out Clod’s blessing at the same UIHO ’ Hal lie had advanced to the ontsule door and was standing on the threshold, ami the celling sun, which, through the hazy atmosphere was red as hloml, shone full* upon her. As she paid the last words she raised her eyes to heaven, and bathed in that crimson light, she remind ed David of a martyr in tho'llames. He thought- that, she had never looked so millin' and that he had never loved her so well, hut he answered not n word.— Ho walked homo dith her in silence, and refused to enter the house. When llie news' of the broken cngngc- meut spread through the village-r-as if soon did, for David made-no secret of the a flair— it was the occasion of much won dt*r and not a little gossip. Hallie's course was applauded -hy the few, and condemned hy the main — the few were those whose good opinion wore most to he desired. Timi she could banish from herheart a love of so long standing, without a struggle, is not liUely ; hut on this sub ject, her Jjps were silent. Sho grew a ‘little thinner and pater, but went into society as usual, and neither seemed de pressed, nor assumed an artificial gaiety. On this account some - called her heart ier ‘lan’t it shameful to see her wear them nk ribbons—for all the world ns if she gloried in what she’d done?’ said Mrs. Hurdock, whieh remark was duly re peated to Sailie. ‘I didn’t know they expected mo to pufon mourning,’ she answered, smiling a little bitterly. When Air. Dealing hoard what had happened, he said, ‘Our Sailie was'al ways a good girl,’ and then he seemed to forget*all about it. Ho had received a paralytic stroke a few years before and his mind had never been quite the same since, so that nothing made a lasting im pression upon him. Mrg. Dealing, on tlie contrary, begged her daughter not to sacrifice her happiness to them. •My happiness will n.ot be sacrificed, mother,’ said Sallie, quietly. Still it was not without a pang that ahe saw David riding by with Jennie Jiurns —he on the white-faced horse she knew so well, and ahe on her pretty po ny. They saw her too, and nodded and smiled two or three times, and he looked black, still holding bis hut in his hand, i .. they turned the corner.

He tool; elightlh (invc.l «ua breeds of animals, and rarespecimens -- He seldom visited the millf leaving the care of the business almost to his fore man.

David thanked him verv heartily at the liuW, but bad never availed himselV of the oiler. Mr. Diireh supposed this might be owing to mill denee. and one day rallied him od the aub|ecl. , , , , , ‘Tin not going to he married, sir at joust not at present,’ said David, looking I hope nothing serious has occurred,’,said Mr. Rurch. . . . ‘lt’s nil oil'.’ said David, shaking hi^ A lover's quarrel, perhaps ; 1 1' that's , don’t despair.

Burch. . . „ She was much surprised one daj, on opening the front door in answer to the summons of the great brass-knocker, to behold him standing on tlie step, and his horse pawing at the gate—about as much surprised us you would he if the statue ol Washington, which adorns the square should dismount from nia rampant steed and pay you a visit. Hu extended his hand smiling, and in quired for her father and mother, upon which Snllie invited him in. He said he had been-trying to obtain some of the old English -etiawberry plants ; be bad the Hovey's seeding and the Harllett, and in lactulmnfit every oilier variety—but Uie old English bud become very rare, and lie was told Unit Mr. Hearing bad it Upon which Mr. Hearing said Unit lie hud, and Unit Mr. Udrcli was welcome to I some. And then they fell into a Jong conversation about horticulture hi gener al, anil Mrs. Dearlng treated him to a glass of her elderberry wine. So be staid ini ijour or more, and though ho address ed hut few Words to Sallio, his hazel oj cs ion her, even while he talked to her. And so, upon one pretext and »r, ho continued lo t come, until at . (>nnie'without any pretext at all. Tlul old people, valued' his society on their own account not a little, imt more beeaujo, aa they sulci. Hie championship of a cilltivalcd gentleman like Mr. Unrch was such an advantage to a youijg girl like* I heir daughter. Aa for Sallie, aim re garded him as a dorr brother, or at least she thought she diil, until her old friend Mrs. .UnrdnClt—the same who was so scandalized hy tin/ "pink ribbona’’—des troyed life illusion. JI was one afternoon in early June, wl/en Mr. Dearimr aiept in ilia anil-chair, his wife darned Ins stock bigs, and Sul 110 gut stilching away upon some pretty pi</ce of nonsense—which, trull) lo tell, she was much uddh'ted to doing—that Mrs. Burdock stalked - in like some gaunt and grizzly Fate. After dis coursing u short time about the lateness of the season, the prospect of the crops, Mrs. Pluck's ‘rhe.umatbV , and -Mr. Brown's broken leg, she came at last to the subject uppermost in her mind, and which hud been the real motive of her call. . , , '.So Mr. Burch ingoing to ho married, she remarked, looking keenly at Sallie. That young woman gave- a Jiltle start, which caused her to prick her finger and stain her work wifi blood, and lot us hope she derived a momentary satisfac tion from the fancy that tlie cambric was Mrs. UiH*.iock, and the'needle a dagger. She did not, however, look up nor make any reply, hut her mother said in the most coirlmonpluco way in the world. ‘ls he? Who’s the lady.’ 'Thut I lini.nl’fouml out; hut Infs lixiu’ no his house Willi Ihe heaulifulest new tilings. I made an en'aud there arid saw ’em myself. It must he tho Queen . of Shebv at least,’and Mrs. Burdock cackled at her own wit, ‘He’s been down to Bos ton three times in one wed:—only think of il !’ she added. What followed Salllo did not hear; she fell confused and bewildered and was thankful when she could steal away lo her chamber. Then she reproached her- self for leeling distressed At tlie new?. ‘What fa it lo me/ thought she, whcth er, lie is marri •<! or not? He lias been the kindest aml deareat of friends, ami J hoped things might continue as they were, hut I bad no right to expect it. - Well, whatever happen?, I a hid I always reverence him as the noblest man in the world; nobody can deprive me of that comfort.’ ii- Like many other young ladies, bailie was a little given to superlatives, as may bo seen. The next day Mr. Burch called, Pinll-' injr. as handsome as ever.

Impelled by his hliml infatuation, In an evil hour lie tied with her to Ame rica. In New York he had an opportnnPy to* fully realize the unhappy conscquen cesofhis illicit nmoftr. Without mom y, without triends, and without inlUicnce, he soon learned thaf/he had done a ra*h and foolish, not to say n wicked »et, He had ruined himself, ami what was sitll worse, had mined a trusting andconlid lug girl, whose pas-don for iiim was such that she had been easily induced Income with him to Amelina, where she fondly hoped there wpuld be no social orollmr I obstacles to if gs.arrlage which was next 1 to impossible in her native land. But poverty among strangers and foreigners soon bionght them to trouble. .Starvation stared them in the face. The' young no* bhunati also found that, In addition to the displeasur%of his lamily, he had In curred the severe penalty which the mi litary law of Ins government so rigidly inflicts upon all soldiers “absent without leave.” This o lienee in an officer was, under the law, nothing less than •‘deser tion,” ami punishable by,death.. Shortly after I.K arrival in New Yotk, he learned from Gernmo, papers, which soon followed by mail, mat hehad been promptly ‘published by the military au thorities of Prus-ia as a deserter, and the severest penalties of the law wore held-in readiness to ho visited upon .him should lie return. Killed with lemorse tor the ruin he hail brought upon the girl, and seeing no prospect of her escape irom starvation should she remain with him, he, by the aid ol the Prussian consul, sent her hack to her friends'and native land. Ho dare not accompany her. but hoped in lime, and by inlluences which he hopeii to bring to hoar through his parents upon the military powers, to bo permitted to return to his homo, perhaps to his profes sion of arms. Meanwhile hunger compelled him to look for the moans of sustenance. By some influence, not known, in KSo2 he was led into Canada. There he applied for employment on a railroad then in the course of construction. f i he contractoi to whom ho applied was a Gorman,-and well known in this section ot Michigan ss a railroad builder. Hu was engaged and his first labor as a railroad hand was shovelling earth. Thus the scion of a noble-homo and the olfieor of high rank was reduced by his own folly to the no -essiiy of daily la bor for bread. But his appearance, con versation and manners soon revealed to the discerning that ho had the breeding and education of a gentleman. F or along lime tie was silent as to his origin and history, and' studiously, even haughtily, repelled every attempt to penetrate the mvs’qry in which he enveloped his ca reer. By degrees, however; he learned to trust his employer, ami after a long struggle to preserve his secret, finally re vealed Ids whole history." His story was confided to a few wealthy Germans ot his acquaintance, and they Incurred the expense of sendinga lawyer as a confiden tial agent to Prussia, to see his parents and his young brother, ami endeavor to secure their imgiveness for his miscon duct. »mi their Influence atcourfto se cure* ids pardon.

The lather W'-.uld do nothing against the wishes ot his son and heir; he to whom the title and estates would soon fall must, in the father’s judgment, he left to decide who ther he would Incur the hazard of restoi ing or atlemnling to restore.a brother who had lost caste. The negotiation, therefore, failed, ami the lawyer returned home. But the yearnings of a mother’s love could not he so repressed. Her hoy! whom she had dandled, and fondled, and • reared in luxury and refinement, was a daily laborer for bread ! Though hus band ami son both refused to take- any steps, oven by remittance, to aid the pro digal’, she, through her own brother, the n i7cle of the wanderer, undertook (<» make quarterly• remittances, whereby her hoy would ho relieved from dnnlgeiy and Uftl. •The failure of the he -otintion Mo secure his return to homo and triends’ wrought strongly on the sei silivo heart ol the misguided youth. His mother’s money «aved him from toil, hut at the same time furnished him the means wherewith to buy the stupefying draught Believed from, the necessity of labor, idleness leu his mind unoccupied, except hv his own gloom v thoughts. By nature of a frank, friendly, and sensitive disposition, he craved* sympathy—human sympathy.— The intoxicating cup had not yet estab lished entire mastery over him. Hope leas now of any restoration to home and triends, he turned to seek such comnan lonslrp and sympathy as a man in his circumstances could secure. While em ployed ns a railroad hand, he hud bee one somewhat acquainted with the daughter of a worthy and respectable farmer near Simcoe, Upper Canada. Her womanly sympathies for the unhappy stranger soothed him. The upshot was love, and In a few months marriage. This was in 185.1. From tins time until ISR-l —eleven years-the writer of this knows nothing ot his history. , ~ , During IRR-1 he was first seen in Kala mazoo by his old employer, rho German railroad contractor of Canada. Shortly utterward his brother died (lie was killed at the buttle of Koeniggratzl. hut In ad dition to the old difiieulties, his marriage Increased the difiieulties that barred iiK return to Germany, turd to the lilies and estates of which ho was now the heir. Ho had gone from bad to worse. For a partial livelihood for hinwdfand family, ho had turned «a part of his military edn cation—a part peculiar to Prussian mill-’ tary discipline and policy—m account. He was a veterinary surgeon. Intern noiance did its work rapidly. The pie sent war in France and Germany earned him to feel, more than ever, his disgiaee, and the chances of honor he had JoM m the service of his country. On Saturday night, the loth October, in a fit of intoxication, he entered a pas senger car standing on the truck the Michigan Central Railroad, cut his throat from car to cur, and In the morning wa found dead. .
