WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1866. .A. GOOD STORY. THE PLAIN LOVER. I was a coquette. Many a lover's heart I had lacerated by refusing his otter of marriage, after 1 had lured him on to a declaration. My last vic tim's came was James Frazer. He was a tali, awkward, homely, ungain ly man, but his heart was as steel. I respected him highly, and felt pained when I witnessed his anguish at iny rejection of him. But the fact was, I had myself iallen in love with Captain Elliot, who had been unremitting in his devotion to me. Mr. James Frazer warned me against Elliot; but I charged him with jeal ousy, and look his warning as an in- j suit. A few days afterwards Elliot and 1 were engaged, and my dream of ro mantic love seemed to be in a fair way of realization. I had a week of hap piness. Many have not so much in a lifetime. Many awake from the bright short dream to find themselves in u litelong darkness, and bondage from which there is no escape. Thank God, I was nof so miserable as they ! My mother was a widow in good circumstances, but having vert* bad health. She was also of an easy, list less credulous nature —hating trouble, and willing to take things just as they happen to present themselves. She therefore made no inquiries about Cap tain Elliot—but .fondly believed that inasmuch as he was a Captain he must necessarily be a man of honor also, especially as he had served in the Cri mea and India and won medals. His regiment was quartered in our neigh borhood, and he had tho reputation of being one of the wealthiest, as he was certainly the handsomest officer in it [ remember well the day we became engaged. He was on duty, but bad managed to ride over to our house in his uniform, and while we were walk ing in the garden he made the tender i * avowal. I referred him to 'mamma; he hastened to her—returning in a few minutes, and led me into her presence to receive the assurrac.ce that the ma ternal consent hafl been readily given. My dear mother, hated trouble, and she moreover loved me tenderly; so that she was well pleased to find a husband presenting himself in a form and manner apparently so eligible for her beloved and only daughter. Well, a week passed quite delight fully as I' have said; and at the expi ration of this there might have been seen an equestrian party winding through our old Devonshire woods and quiet country roads. Elliot and I ied the cavalcade. I rode my own beau tiful brown Bess. Captain Elliot was mounted on a handsome black horse that had been sent him from London Following us was a bevy of merry girls and their cavaliers; and among them was tall, awkward and silent Jas Frazer. His presence had marred all the pleasure of rny ride, and I was glad to bo in advance of them all that I might not see hi in And as we rode on through the woods, and 1 listened, well pleased, to the low but animated words of the gallant Elliot, who wished himself a knight and me a fair layde of the old en time that he might go forth to do battie and compel all men to recognize the claims of his peerless love. \ ery eloquent he spoke of the inspiration ot love, of the brave deeds and perilous exploits it bad prompted, wishing again and again that he might pro claim and maintain his love before the world. It pleased me to listen to this and to believe it sincere, though 1 surely had no wish to put my lover to such a test. A shot suddenly rang through the woods and a wounded bird, darting past, fluttered and tell at the leet ol brown Bess. With a bound and a spring that nearly unseated me. she was off. Struggling to retain my seat, I had no power to check her, and even as she flew the fear and madness of the moment grew upon her. I could only cling breathlessly to the mane and bri dle, and wonder helplessl}* where this mad gallop was to end. She swerved from a passing wagon, and turned into a path that led to the river. In the sudden movement the reins had been torn from my hands and I could not regain them. I clung to the mane and closed my eves, that I might not be hold the fate that awaited me. How sweet was life in those precious mo ments that I thought my last! How all its affections, its last crowning love rose up before me I thought of the pang that would rend Elliot's heart us he saw me lying, mangled and dead; and the thought would come if he were pursuing and trying to save me, even, as he had said, at the risk of life and limb I remembered no more. I felt a sud den shock, fearful rushing through the air, and knew no more until days after ward, I woke to a faint, weak sem- blauce ot life iu my chamber at home. I never saw Captain Elliot again, ihe last words I ever heard from his lips were those of knightly*daring.— I he last action of his life in connection with mine, was to follow in the train of frightened youths who rode after me, to contemplate the disaster from afar, and us soon as he saw me lifted from the shallow bed of the river, into which I had been thrown when my frightened horse stopped suddenly on its banks, to ride hastily off. That evening he sent to make inquiries and learning that I was severely, but it was hoped not fatally, injured, he thenceforth contented himself with such tidings of my condition and im provement as could be gained from mere rumor At last it was known that I would j . never recover entirely from the effects i of my injury, and that very day Cap I tain Elliott departed suddenly from ' the neighborhood. He made no at- j tempt to see me, nor sent ine any fare well. When I was once more abroad, i beginning, though with much unal- j loyed bitterness, to learn the lesson of j patience and resignation that awaited me, I received a letter from him, in j which he merely said that he presum-1 ed try own judgment had taught ine, ; that in my altered circumstances, our ] engagement must come loan end? hut j to satisfy his own sense of honor (his honor!) he wrote to say while enter i taining the highest respect for me he \ desired a formal renunciation of my claim. Writing on the bottom of this I letter, "Let it be as you wish," I re turned it to him at once, and thus end- j od my brief dreaiu of a romantic wed- j ding I beard ere this of Elliot's coward- I ly conduct on that day, but now I first , bethuught me to inquire who had res- j cued me from that. iminent death. : And I learned that James Frazer, his j arm already broken by the jerk with which Brown Bess tore away from I him as be caught at her bridle, bad i ridden alter me, and been the first to j lift me from the water. Many times ] daily he made inquiries concerning me; his had been the that sent the rare flowers that had decked my room : his were the lips that breathed words of cointort and hope to 1113' poor mother; his were the books that I read during the days of convalescence; and his, now, the arm that supported me, as s'.owly and painfully I paced the garden walks i have been his wife for many a year. I have forgotten that he is not handsome —or rather he is beautiful I to me, because I see his grand and loving spirit shining through his plain features and animating his awkward fig ure. I have long since laid aside, as utterly untenable, my theory that beautiful spirits dwell only ill lovely bodies. It may he a providential com pensation that, in denying physical perfection, the soul is not drafted or marred t>y petty vanity or love of the world's praise. Autumn. Alas i'or the summer! The grass is j still verdant OQ the hiils and in the val | leys; the foliage of the trees is as dense as ever, and as green; the flowers are abundant along the margin ot the riv er, and in the hedge-rows, and deep among the woods; the days, too, are as fervent as they were a month ago;and yet, in every breath of wind, and in every beam of sunshine, there is an autumnal influence. I know not how to describe it. Mothinks there is a sort of coolness amid all the heat, and a mildness in the brightness of the sun shine. A breeze cannot stir without thrilling me with the breath ot Au tumn, and I behold its pensive glory in the far, golden gleams among the long shadows of the trees. The flowers— even the brightest of them—the gold en-rod and the gorgeous cardinals—the most glorious flowers of the year — have this gentle sadness amid their pomp. Pensive Autumn is expressed in the glow of every one of them. I have felt this influence earlier in some years than in others. Sometimes Au tumn may be perceived in the early days of July T . There is no other feel ing like that caused by this faint, doubtful, yet real perception, or rather prophecy of the year's decay, so deli ciously sweet and sad at the same time. —Hawthorne.

The London Lancet tells us of a very young and very fair girl who, from the beginning ot the epidemic cholera, passed her time, moving from bed to bod, in ceaseless efforts to comfort and relieve in a scene of suffering and of death sufficient to try the stoutest heart. She offered her help ut a time j when, from the sudden inroad of cases, i such assistance was urgently required, and nobly has she discharged her self : taught duty. Wherever the need is j greatest and the work hardest there j she is to be seen, toiling until her I limbs almost refuse to sustain her One of the effects of her presence has been that the nurses have been ericour : aged by her never-failing energy and j eheeriness, so that thej dread ot dis ! case has been lost in efforts to combat I it. This is an instance of devotion | which it would be an insult to praise i —it need only be recorded "He Shall Eat the Fruit." A blacksmith had in his possession, but under mortgage, a house and piece of land. Like many others, he was at one time fond of the social glass, but was happily induced by a fried to join the temperance society'. About three months after he observed his wife one morning busily employed planting rose bushes and fruit trees. " Mary," said he, " I have owned this cot for five j'ears, and yet I have never known you before to improve or ornament it in this manner." "Indeed," replied the smiling wife, " I had no heart to do it until you gave up the drink. I had often thought of it before, but I was persuaded that, should I do it, some struuyers would pluck the roses and eat the fruit. Now, with God's blessing, this cot will j be ours, and we and our children may I expect to enjoy the produce. Me shall j pluck the roses and eat the fruit." Boys (sing Tobacco. A strong and sensible writer says a good, sharp thing, and a true one, too, for boys who use tobacco. It has ut terly ruined thousands of boys. It tends to softening and weakening of the bones, and it greatly injures the brain, the spinal marrow and the whole nervous fluid. A boy who smokes early and frequently, or in any way uses large quantities of tobacco, is nev er known to make a man of much en ergy, and generally lacks muscular and physical as well as mental power. We wouid particularly warn boys who want to be anything in the world, to shun tobacco as a most baneful poison. It injures the teeth. It produces an unhealthy state of the throat and lungs, hurts the stomach and blasts the brain and nerves. ifegr We have listened to many effec tive arguments in favor of total absti nence, but we have never heard oue more exhaustive than that of the hon est German who was asked to speak at a meeting of the friends of total ab stinence. As to the precise locality of this meeting our readers are at liberty to exercise their guessing faculties. — After some hesitation, he arose and said : " I shall tell you bow it vas; I put mine hand on my head, and there vas von big pain. Then I put mine band on my pody. and vas another. There was very much pains in all mine pody*. Then i put mine hand in my pocket, and there vas nothing. Now there vas no more pain in my head.

A Grand Squirrel Hunt. — Ihe De troit Tribune says: On Saturday last another great squirrel hunt took place in Macomb county, which was parti cipated in by a number of men of the towns of Washington and Hay, ot that countv- the first contest, our read ers wFll remember, the Hay men were victorious, but iu the last their oppo nents came out ahead. f pon tuis occasion the number of squirrels of all kinds killed was 4,267. As agreed up on, a red squirrel counted one, a grey ©r black squirrel two, and a fox squir rel three. The count at the close of Vol. LVI, No. 40. sport stood . Washington, 3,009; liay, j 0,058 11 M Greg counted 150; Frank lloicomb, 144; W. \V. Lyon, 137; and O. J. (Jlass, 115. These were the j highest count. Ihe largest number of squirrels killed by one man was 106, and they were dispatched by Mr. Mc- Wctley, of the Washington party.— The next greatest number was killed by O. Stevenson, of Kay, who bagged 83. The whole affair afforded much genuine sport, and passed off with the greatest good feeling. A Ferocious Moni'ic. —There is a maniac now living in Buokland, Mass achusetts, named Josiah Spaulding, who, the Springfield Republican says, has been confined in an iron cage for over fifty years, and for more than thirty years has not stood erect, lie lias become so deformed that it is im possible to straighten his limbs by manual force.
