A Matter Ter Correction.
Our attention Las just been attracted te
the fact tbat the Pennsylvania rallnuJ com cem
pany discriminates agalust tlie passengers
en its main line and in favor of these en its
Schuylkill Valley branch. It is quite novel
te tnd the people en a branch line enjoying
greater consideration than theso en the
main line, and no were quite unwilling te
believe tbat it was true tbat it costs the
people of Beading less per mile te go te
Philadelphia by the Pennsylvania railroad
than It costs these of Lancaster. A lady
resident in Reading, going hence te Phila
delphia yesterday, banded the conduc
tor a 1,000 mile coupon ticket book
made out in the name of a gentleman of ber
family, which she had been In the habit of
using en the Pennsylvania Schuylkill Val
ley line. The conductor lefused it, calling
attention te a red ink note at the end of
the book, which said that en the Schuylkill
Valley line only would the ceujwns be re
ceived for the passage of anyone but the
party te which the book was made out. On
that line it would be taken for any member
of a family or Arm ; and it is net necessity
there te inscribe the name en the back of
the coupons taken up for passage.
Kew here was certainly a fine exhibition
of the efllciency of competition and the
meanness of the great railroad of Pennsyl
vania. Uecause the Reading railroad is
sued tickets at two cents a mile, geed for a
family and net needing endorsement, the
Pennsylvania did likewise; which of course
was right and necessary. But because it
bad the dwellers along its main line at its
mercy, and could de with them as it
pleaded, it failed te make the like conces
sion te them.
Se this conductor charged the lady pas
senger $2.40 te take her te Philadelphia, at
therate of three and a half cents per mile,
which was again n violation of the law
which prohibits a greater charge than
three cents per mile, a3 we understand it.
And the constitution, article 17, section
.s.feibids" unreasonable discrimination "
in the charge for transportation of persons
and property. It is undeniably an un
reasonable disc iiuinatlen te charge Lan
caster people mere per mile than Reading
people ; unless It be construed te be reason
able te charge all that can be get.
r We suggest te our Beard of Trade that
this isamatterthat comes within thellnesef
ita appointed duty, and gives it an onortu enortu onertu
nlty te exhibit its value te the community.
Certainly it cannot be content that the peo
ple of neighboring towns shall have cheaper
v raihead tickets than these of Lancaster ;
te and the constitution is by them, te declare
,' that such favoritism shall net be shown by
the Pennsylvania railroad.
And while the Beard of Trade is in
communication with the Pennsylvania
railroad officials en this matter, it may
profitably inquire why it is that the pas
senger's signature is required upon the
coupons of his passage book. The futility
of this requirement has se long excited de
rision, that the company should be permit
ted te explain Its utility. It is se evident
that in the shaking of the car no man's sig
nature can be identifled, that it wholly
falls as a means of confining the book te
the party in whose name it is Issued ; and
it is se obviously in the power of anyone te
give bis book te auether, and te authorize
bim te sign his name, that it ia inconceiva
ble that the cempauy gets any benefit from
the annoying requirement. It can hardly
de it for the sake of auney ing its passengers
and of being berated for its felly.
Bismarck In the Itelchstug.
The sum and substance of Prince Bis
marck's siech is peace by force of arms.
If a meredisplay of this force can net keep
the peace, it will certainly make the war
mere terrible by urging the Trench te
equal pieparatiens. Prance is the storm
quarter of his political horken, and though
he admitted the intimate relations of Ger
many with Austria, he protested tbat no
matter what might happen in Bulgaria.it
could net concern Germany . But, for the
sake of Hungary, the fate of Bulgaria
must concern Austria, se the chaucellei's
words amount virtually te an abandon
ment of the latter te the tender mercies of
Russia, aud ceufirm the rumor of au
understanding between the czar aud Bis
marck by which Germany was te abandon
Austria, and Russia refuse an alllauce
with Prance. By strange coincidence it
happened that while Bismarck was
waving Prance like a led rag befere the
Reichstag, 31. Sadi-Camet was addressing
the Trench Senate, and expicssed for the
Ken eminent of Prance just what the Ger
uiaii chancellor had said for that of his
country. The Prenchmau said : "There
were two conditions essential te the pios pies
perity of Prance: Stability within the
nation and peace abroad. Te exhibit
Prance as impatient for war was merely an
.irtitkfi used te remove hesitation in a cer.
tiin piillament." But with the report of
this sreech cornea the news that Prance has
decided te Increase the military credit
from ),000 te W.000 francs.
. Bismarck's speech Is an admission that
theie Is no hope et relieving Rurepe of the
ftarful burden of military expenses, and
war trlfi Prance must come sooner or
later, simply because the Prench will net
afcttan Alsce-Leralne without another
tniggle.
"When one thinks of the millions of lives
and money Uiat were sw ept away by the
last great war, it seems criminal te risk a
repetition of that calamity for the sake of
a little strip of territory i and the reflection
tbat both Prance and Germany rretest that
they want peace leads one te wonder why
they de net establish n neutral territory,
and ngree te a disbanding of armies. The
only answer can be that some one is lying,
and we strenglysuspecttnat tueoprtnrew
of lepubllcaulsm in Prance is the main
object of the iron chancellor.
.senatorial Contest.
The election of United States senator is
greatly disturbing the temper of some of
the states. In Xew Yerk the troubleis
among the Republicans alone, two gentle
men of heavy purse contending for the
prize, which a third thinks he will carry
oil from both. Xew Jersey and Indiana
seem te be almost en the threes of revolu
tion ever the matter. Indiana has a con
test ever who shall be inaugurated at lieu
tenant governor, which the courts have de
cided against the Democrats, and the court
doubtless was right. The Democrats
should concede this point as lest, but they
nre net in a conceding humor. Bach
party has one house of the legislature, and
each expects the sharpest practice from the
ether. There certainly ought net te be
such a state of feeling , but it seems te be
inevitable te political contests. Pair deal
ing is the la3t thing looked for. The Re
publican party is a gross offender In this
way. Decency has never restrained from
taking unfair party advantage, and since
the stealing of the presidency for Hayes, the
mouths of its partisans are closed te com
plaint against political procedure , never
theless It Is wrong,and we shall be sorry te
see Democratic legislatures doing anything
that is unlawful te secure a United States
senator. In Xew Jersey the Democratic
candidate for the legislature whom Chief
Justice Beasley declared te be tied with
bis opponent, should net claim his seat.
We would have the Democrats stand
firmly everywhere, and always when they
are satisfied that they are right, and
j leld speedily always w hen they knew that
thet are wrong.

Dr. Alien- Hamilton appeared as an

BY THE WATERS OF TARAD1SE.

Auther of Mr. "Issws, ' " l'r uaudtu, Ac
tl.
I dined lu military state, and the melan
choly grandeur of tbe ast old diiilng-roeiu
plen'ed me. Then 1 went te tbe room 1 bad
selected for my study, and Mi down lu mj
decpchalr, uudern bright light, te think, or te
let my thoughts meander through Intiytinlhs
eftiieir own cheiring, utterly lmllilertnit te
tbe course they might take.
The tall windows of the tivitii opened te
the le el el the ground upon the terrace at
the bead of the garden. It was in the end
of July, and everything was epen, ter the
weather was warm. As 1 st alone. 1 heard
the unceasing plash et the great teuntnln,
and 1 tell te thinking of the Weman of the
Water. 1 rose and went out Inte the still
night, aud sit down UHn n stnt en tbe
terrace, between two glgnntu Italian flower
pots. The air was deli-'ensu ell and
sweet with the suiell of ttm tl iwer, and
the garden was mere cennenlsl tome than the
heuse. Seme people always like running
water and the seuud of It at night, though 1
cannot tell why. I sat aud listened In the
gloom, for It was dark below, and the ptle
moon hail net yet cilmiHM ever the mils in
front of me, though all the alrstsne was
light with her rising beams Mewlv the
white bale In the extern sky nceuded lu an
arch above the woedtd crests, making the
outllne efthe mountain mere intensely UUck
by contrast, as though the head et semeiireat
white saint were rising from behind ieen
In a vast cathedral, throwing mWy g,irles
from below 1 longed te se the tu hui her
self, and 1 tried te reckon the seconds beleru
she must appear Then she sprang up
quickly, and lu a moment mere hung round
and perfect In the sky. 1 gs a at tier ai 1
then at tbe floating spray et tbe tall fountains
and down at the peels where the water lilus
were rocking softly lu their sleep en tbe
velet surface of the moeulit water Just
then n great swan floated out s.leuuy into the
midst of tbe basin, and wreathed his leug
neck, catching tbe water lu bis bn-nd lull aud
scattering showers of diamonds around blm.
Suddenly, as I gaz?d, s metbing came be
tween me and tbe light. I h. iked up in
s'antly. Between me and the reuud dik cf
the moon resea luminous taeefa woman,
with great strange eye, aud a weuitn's
mouth, full aud selt, but net smiling, heeded
In black, staring at me as I sat -tij upon my
bench. She wasclce te me se clese that I
could have touched her with my hsnd. 1-ut
I was transfixed aud helplea. Mie bl
still for a moment, but ber expression did net
change. Then she passed swiitiv away, and
my balr steed up en tuy hea 1, w line tbe cold
breeze Irem ber white dress was wafted te
my temples as she moved. The moonlight,
saining through the tossing spriy of the
fountain, made traceries if shadow en the
gleaming folds of her garments lu an lu
slant she was gene, and I was alone.
1 was strangely shaken by the vision, and
some time passed belere J could rl-e te my
feet, for I was still weak from my Illness,
and tbe sight 1 bad wn would have startled
any one. I did net reason w tth myself, ler 1
was certain tbat I had looked ou the tiu
eaartbly, and no argument could bate de
stroyed tbat belief. At last i get up and
steed unsteadily, gaz'ng in tbe direction in
which I thought the figure hal gene, but
there was netblng te be seen uethiDg but
the beard path", tbe tall, dark evergreeu
bedges, the tossing water ' the fountains
and thv smooth peel below- I tell bai upon
my seat aud recalled the faee 1 had seen.
Strange te say, new that the hrst luipre-ien
had passed, tbere was nothing startling In
the recollection en tbe contrary I felt tbat
I was fascinated by the fa.-, anil would give
anything te see It again. I nuld retrace tbe
beautllul straight features the lint., dark
eyes and tbe wonderful meutb most eiartiy
In my mind, and when 1 had recenstru 'tell
every detail from memory I knew that the
whole was beautiful, and that I should love
a woman with such a face.
" I wonder w bether sbe is tbe eman of
the Water'" Iseld temyeeif. Then rising
once mere, 1 wandered down the garden,
descending one short flight cf eps alter an
other, from terrace te terrace by tbe edge of
tbe marble basins, through the tbadew and
through the moonlight , nud 1 crewed tbe
water by the rustic bridge suite the artlh,-ial
grotto, and climbed slowly up again te the
highest terrace by tbe oilier side. Tbe air
seemed sweeter, and I was ervcalni, se
that i tntnk i smiled te myself as I walked,
as though a new happiness had come te me.
The woman's face seemed always before me,
and the thought of it gave me'an unwonted
thrill of pleasure, unlike anything 1 had
ever felt before.
I turned, as I reached the hrmse, and
looked back upon tbe scene. It had certain
ly changed In the short hour since I bad
come out, and my mood had (banged with
It. Just my luck, I thought, te fall In leve
wllha ghost' But in oil umts 1 would
bate sighed and gene te bed mere tad thau
ever at such a melancholy conclusion. To
night I felt happy, almost ler the hrst time
In my life. The cloemv old studv seemed
cheerful when I went in. 'I he old pictures
en tbe walls smiled at me and I sat dew n in
my deep chair with a new and delightful
sensotlen that I was net a, 'no. The idea of
having 9ecn a gbest and or feeling inuh the
better for It was se absurd thai 1 laughed
softly as I tnek up one of the t,ks 1 had
brought with me and began te ra l
Tbat Impression did net wear ill. I slept
peacefully, and In Ibe morning I threw rpt-n
my windows te the summer mr and looked
down at the garden at thstrftLlis of green
and at the colored flower beds at the circling
swallows and at tbe bright water.
"A man might make a parailp-e of this
place," 1 exclaimed ''a nun nnd n woman
together '
Frem tbat day the el 1 t!astl) no longer
seemed gloomy, and I think 1 ceased te be
sad j for some time, tee, 1 began 'e take an
lnterest In tbe place and te try and make it
mere alive. I avoided my old Welsh nure
lest she should damp my humor with some
dismal prophecy and recall my old self by
bringing memories of my dismal childhood.
But what 1 thought et me-twas the gbetly
figure I bad seen In the garden that lirst
night after my arrival. I went out every
evening and wandered through the walks
and pains , but, try as I might, I did net see
myilen Bgaln. At last, alter man v daja,
the memory grew mere taint, and luy old
moody nature gradually overcame the tem
porary sense et llgbtnees I bad experienced.
The summer turned te autumn and I grew
restless. It began te rain The dampness
pervaded the gardens and the outer halls
stnelled musty, like tombs tbe gray kv op
pressed me Intolerably. 1 lelt tbe place' us it
was and went abroad, determmed te try any
thing which might possibly make a second
break in the monotonous melancholy lr, m
which I tuQered.
Most people would be strtKk I y the utter
Insignificance of the small events which,
alter the death of my parent", influenced my
life and made me unhappy. The gruesome
forebodings el a Welfh nurse, which chanced
te be realised by an odd ceincidei.ee of
events, should net seem enough te chaiige
the nature of a child and te direct the bent of
his character In alter years. The little disap
pointments of schoolboy life and the some
what less childish ones of an eventful and
undistinguished academic career should net
bate sufllced te turn me cut at ene-aud-twenty
years et age a melancholic, listless
Uler. Seme weakness of my own chara ter
may bae contributed te the result, but lu it
greater degree It was due te my having a
reputation forbad luck. However, I will
net try te analyze the causes of my state, ter I
should satisfy nobody, least or all myself,
htill less will I attempt te explum why I felt
a teuiK)jary revival of my spirits alter my
adventure In the garden. It Is certain that I
was In love with the face I had seen aud that
I longed te see it again . that 1 gave up all
hoi of a second Msltatien, grew mere sad
than ever, packed up my traps aud Anally
went abroad. Hut in my dreams 1 went
back te my home, and It always appeared te
me sunny and bright, as It h&d I .uk.nl en
tbat summer's morning alter I had sien the
woman by the fountain.
I went te Paris. I went further, and wan
dered about Germany, I tried te amuse my
self, and I fulled miserably. Wltb the aim
less whims of an Idle and useless man came
all Herts of suggestions ler geed resolutions
Uneday I made up my mind tbat I would
geandburymyseltin a German unlurslty
ioratlmeauu live simply llku a peer stu
dent. 1 started with the Intention of going
te Leipslc, determined te atay thore until
some event should direct my llfoer cbaugu
my humor or make an end of me altogether.
Trie exprcss train stepped at some suuimi et
which I did net kuew the name. It was
dusk en a winter's alteruenn and I peered
through the thick glass Irem mj si.il S id
denly anetber train came gliding in from the
opposite direction and stepped alongside et
ours. I looked at the carriage which
chanced te be abreast of iiune aud Idly
read the black letters piluted ou a whltu
beard swinging lrem the bras handrail :
"Berlin Cologne Tarls." Then 1 looked
up at tbe window above. I started violently
aud tbe cold perspiration broke out upon my
forehead. In tbe dim light, net six tett from
where I sat, I saw tbe race of a woman, the
face 1 loved, tbe straight, line features, the
strange eye, the wemlfrful mouth, the pl
skin. Her head-drcm Was a dark veil, w hleh
seemed te be tied about iiier bend nnd passed
ever the shoulders unber her chin. As I
threw down tbe wltnhl.v and knelt ou the
cushioned seat, leaning far out te get a belter
Mew, along whistle e J earned through tbe
station, followed liytAitilck series of dull,
clanking sounds j th(fi there was n slight
Jerk, and my train moved ou. Luckily the
window w As nnrrnw, being the one ever tbe
scst beslde the deer, or I believed I would
have lumped out et It then aud there, lu an
Instant the. speed lucreascd and 1 was belug
carried awiltly away in the opposite direction
from tbe thing 1 loved
1 or a 'Hurler of an lieui I lav back In my
place, stunned by the suddenness of the
apparition. At last one el the two ether pas
sengers, n large and gorgeous cspUlii el the
Whltu Keulgsberg Cuirassiers, civilly but
firmly suggested that 1 might shut my win.
dew, its the uveulng was . .1.1. I did se,
with an HlHjlegy, and relapsed Inte silence.
The train ran swiitiv en for a long time, and
It was already beginning te slacken speed
befere entering auether siatten wheu 1
reued tuy self and made a sudden resolu
tion. As the carriage stepped before the bril
liantly lighted pisiferm 1 seued my belong
ing", saluted my fellow pvengers" and get
out, determined te take the first oppress hack
te Paris.
Till time the circumstances of the Isleu
had been se natural that it did net strike me
that there was anything unreal about the lace
or about the woman te whom it belonged.
I did net try te explain te tnvself hew the
face aud the woman could be travelling by a
last train lrem Berlin te Paris en a winter a
afternoon when both were m my mind
Indelibly associated with the uixmltght and
the fountains In mv own 1 ng.ish home. 1
certain ty would net have admitted tbat 1 bad
been mistaken In the dusk, attributing- te
w hu 1 had seen a resemblance te my former
lsien which did uet reallv el"L There
was net liie slightest doubt In "my mind and
I was positively sure th it 1 ha 1 again seen
the lace 1 loved. I did uet hesitate, and lu a
few hours 1 was en mv way back U Paris.
I could net help reflecting en my Ill-luck.
Wandering as 1 bad been for msuy months,
it might as eislly have inn'"! that I beuld
te travelling in the sime train with that
weuiau Instead of going the ether w ay. But
my luck was destined te turn for a tune.
1 searched Paris for several davs 1 dined
at tbe principal hotels I went "te the thea
tres 1 rode in the Heis de Boulegue in the
morning nnd picked up au ac pis In Unco
whom 1 forced te drive with me in the alter alter

lattended the services at the l.uclish church.
I hung about the Leuvre and Notre Dame
I went te erallles , I spent hours In parad

I received an Invitation ten ree-( len at the
Kuglih embassy. I went, audi found wbat
I had sought se long.
There she was, sitting t v au old lady lu
gray satin and diamond", who had a wrink
led but kludly face aud keen gray eyes tbat
seemed te take in everything they saw, wltb
very little inclination tegive muib lu return.
But I did net notice the ihapereu. I saw
only tbe face that had haunted me ter mouth",
and In tbe excitement of tbe moment 1
walked quickly towards the pair, forgetting
such a trills as the ueettv ler au intro
duction. She was far mere bevtitlful than I had
thought, but I never deemed that it was she
herself and no ether. isien or no vision
before, this was reality, and I knew it Twice
her hair had been covered, new at last I saw
it, and the added beauty of its inagultlceuce
glerltied the whole woman. It was rich hair,
tine and abundant, golden, with deep ruddy
tints In it like red bronze spun line. There
was ue ornament In It, net a rose,uet a thread
of geld, and I feel that It needed nothing te
enhance Its splendor . nothing but her pale
face, her dark atrauge eyes, and her
heaw eyebrows. 1 could see tbat she was
slenavr, tee, gazing at tbe inev ing scene in
the midst of the brilliant lights and the hum
oLprepetual conversation.
