cordially, as the wife of her old friend. "I have not seen Mi. Elmer for several years; but heard that he was married, and wished much to meet you." " And to see me play the dignified husband, I snpiiose ?" rejoined lie laughing. " No ; you used to be too good natured to lie dignified ; and I doubt whether even mar riage could change you." " I saw Mr. Law ton a moment ago," said Elmer, " and he expressed his willingness, nay his wish, that you should breathe the fresh air for a while." " Iler face brightened. " Did lie ?" Certain ly I will go, if it will afford him any pleasure." And she accompanied us. " Lawton was standing where we left him. The glow of delight still illumined his wife's face, and her eyes anxiously sought his; but lie did not give her a look. He resumed his conversation with me. " How long have vou been married—may I tuk ?" " Four years." " Vou have worn the yoke just twice as long as I have. I became a Benedick two years since." His scrutinizing gaze again sought my face. " You look well and happy. In days of " lang syne," you wi re subject to occasional attacks ofcanttt-or low spirits; arc you never thus afflicted now ?" " Never. 1 have grown wiser." " And yet I should have supposed that in crease of care, perhaps of sorrow—and lie lowered his voice—" would have augmented the malady." " But if additional cares bring also new sources of happiness ?" I responded, indign ant at his insinuation. "And such has been your experience ?" with another s arching glance. "Unquestionably," was my proud reply. " 1 wish I could say the same. To speak truly, I am weary of life, sick of the world, and everything in it." " Not of everybody, 1 hope," said I, with a stolen look at Mrs. Luwtou, who was talking with Rupert. " Yes, of everybody. I have learned to re gard a hermit's life as the ne plus ultra ot feli city." " I saw the pale chock grow whiter >till and the muscles of the month quiver convulsively, and hastened to change the subject. " Have you visited B since your return to this country ?" " Once only; that is, I passed through with out stopping. I saw the house in which you used to live and heaved a sigh to the memory of the pleasant times we had there together I often think of those days they were the hap piest in my life. I love to recall each incident Do you remember the last song you sang for tue ? That was a sad parting to inc." " I remembered it all but the retrospection gave uie no pleasure. On the contrary, it fill ed me with disgust and shame. I was displeas ed at his familarity; but a moment's reflection showed me that I had no right to be so. Our former intimacy authorized it. The only won der was that I should ever have been intimate with him. In the hope of making the conver sation general I turned to his lady. 1 instant ly perceived that the quick ear of affection had caught a least a part of our interchange of histories. The sadness had deepened; lnit her maimer was yet gent'e. We spoke of the wild scenery through which wc were pas sing. "It is indeed magnificent," said she. " 1 can conceive of nothing more grandly.beautiful than that view," pointing as slie spoke; and the sunbeams play over it as if unwilling to leave it so shrouded in the gray twilight." " Really," said Lawton sneeringly "that last burst of poetry partook of the grandiloquent. Now that you fairly mounted upon your Pegasus, favor us again. 1 will take notes of the most "grandly beautiful" passages for the benefit of the public." " She blushed deeply, tears of wounded feel ings suffused her eyes, and she was compelled to turn aside to conceal her emotion. My heart bled for her; I looked indignantly at the author of this cruel and in.manly speech; but his sarcastic smile showed that he enjoyed the sight of the anguish his words had occasioned. Shrinking from him as from a fiend, my eye fell upon mv own noble husband and the two contrasted. Indignation and pity were cxpres sed in Rupert's countenance. He was silent; but I read his thoughts; and when, at length his eyes beamed on me with a look of nnttera ble tenderness, and 1 thought how freely his bosoin would be presented to receive a shaft that threatened to pierce mine, I longed to cast myself upon his breast, and, from the ful ness of the grateful heart, thank Heaven that I had been saved from the misery which a union with my " first love" would have brought upon me. As soon as we were alone, 1 learned more of the history of the unfortunate being who was thus, in the spring-time of lite, doomed to sneh wretchedness. " I have been acquainted with her from childhood," said Mr. Elmer, " and a more lovely character I have never seen. ~\Ye were near neighbors for many years, and upon terms of the closest intimacy; yet 1 never saw her sweetness of temper disturbed, or heard her speak an unkind word. Idolized by her par ents and friends, she inhaled constantly an at mosphere of affection and indulgence. Her feelings were respected and guarded from in jury as sacred things. Poor creature ! She feels the change as keenly as a tender exotic transplanted from the hothouse into the biting air of n northern winter. I heard of her mar riage, her friends feared an unhappy one, with one who, it was said, had sought her for her wealth. I knew his name, but did not dream that it was the Lawton ofv.hose virtues I had heard so much in B . He must indeed be a villain to treat her as he does. There is nothing congenial in their natures; she is a trne hearted, loving woman, clinging even in death-struggle of joy and hope to the object of her devotion; lie a cold-hearted brilliant egotist, in lore with himself, and despising the rest of his race, except as ministers to his pleasure. She was doubtless attracted by his handsome person and insinuating address, and is now suffering the penalty those must endure who allow such petty consideration to blind their reasou and outweigh truth and sterling worth." " He little thought that he was describing what would have been iny fate, hud my ardent wishes once been granted. " I have not told you this trne story, my dear girl, only to amuse you. I have noticed in you a love ot the romantic, a longing after sentimental adventure,and a distaste for every thing commonplace, which make me tremble for your future happiness. Believe one, who tells you upon the strength of her own expe rience, that no uuioa can be happy that is not rounded—obuoxious as is the phrase I must use it once more—" prudential motives."

THE ISSUE TENDERED BY THE ADMINIS TRATION. The Washington Union loses no time in ten dering the Republicans nn isuefor the approach, iug Congressional elections, which we venture to say the Republicans will not be backward in accepting. Speaking of the administration, that print says in substance—that Kansas hav ing rejected the constitution and bribe tender ed her by Congress, must now remain a terri tory until her population shall nearly double, that is, until she lias over 90,000 inhabitants. We think we do not mistake the very unani mous sentiment of the Republican party, (says the Evening Eosf,) when we say that it will insist upon the admission of Kansas to the L nion as soon as the people make a formal ap plication, under a Republican constitution of their adoption. Upon that question we are ready to go to the country at once. If there were people enough in the territory to make a state under the Border-Ruffian constitution framed at Lecompton, there are more than enough to make a state under a Republican constitution, such as the people of Kansas themselves would frame. If it was the dictate of patriotism, as the Union affirms, to over look the question of numbers, when there was a chance of giving the control of the new state to the administration, it is the dictate of a far j more exalted patriotism to overlook the qoes : lion of numbers when there is a chance of the : people being permitted to govern themselves. ! The Union closes with a statement which is j incorrect. " There are no well grounded griev ances," it says, " in remaining under territorial j " forms, and this seems to be the judgment I" of the Kansas people. They have decided " thus to remain, and as they have at length " come to realize that peace is better than re ; •' bellion, we trust they will now wait till their | "numbers call for a change of government." The people of Kansas have not decided to | remain under territorial institutions ; they have decided that they will not become a state ! except upon equality with other states. They 1 prefer remaining a territory until they can be ; admitted under a constitution that suits them. And until the Union can show that a prefer ! once for a constitution that suits them, is evi : deuce of indisposition to enter the Union,it has no right to say that the people of Kansas have decided to remain under territorial institutions. No. The people cf Kansas, over and over again, have asked admission as a state, and the only reason they are not now a state is that they are unwilling to submit to the dishonor able conditions which the slavery cxtensionists have sought to impose upon them. &aS"" News from Utah states that Brigham, \oung, Orson Hyde, and Ilebcr Kimball, the grand high priests of Mormonism, have retnrn ed to Salt Lake City. This being the case, it is likely their example will be followed by the lesser lights of the church. i THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH. —The delay in the reception of the Queen's message rin the ocean telegraph, and rumors that the opera tors wore unable to puss messages over the wires, have given rise to apprehensions that the enterprise, after all, was likely to prove a failure. Some explanation is given in the [urni groplis we publish in another column. It a|4- pcars that messages arc freely passed from this side to the Irish oast, but there is a failure in receiving replies. Signals are however con stantly and freely passing to and fro. This ; balk is undoubtedly occasioned by some por tion of the machinery, which when discovered j will be speedily rectified. We see nothing in | the circumstance to excite doubts, but that the I line will soon be in working order. THE TEN MILLION LOAN. —The bids for the loan of Ten Millions were opened at Washing ton by the Secretary of the Treasury, on the 9th instant. The amount bid was large and competition active and spirited, the lowest be ing at par and the highest a fraction ever sev en per cent, premium. Five millions of the loan was awarded at five per cent, advance, and the balance at four and a half per cent. It is remarkable that within one year after the great financial revulsion, there is so much com petition for the privilege of lending money to the government at five per cent, interest, and that a premium of five per cent, should be given therefor. Lenders seem to be averse to I speculation, preferring security at low rates of interest, to the insecurity that attends ventures after large profits. air The detectives of Chicago have arrest ed Ceo. Loop, a fugitive from justice from Eh mira, Chemung county, N. Y., who had eluded the officers for fifteen months. Loop was tri ed and convicted in Chemung county about two years ago of tlie crime of highway robbe ry, but appealed to the Supreme Court, and gave bail in the sum of two thousand dollars, and remained in Elmira until May, 1857, when he took leg bail, and nothing was heard of him until recently. The officer found him fishing aud asked : "What luck, have you got a bite?" , " No?" was the laconic reply. " Well," says Captain Bradley, " I think I have a nibble," and suiting the action to the word, sprung the i' darbies" 011 him. RELIGIOUS. —The consecration of the Rev. I)r. BOWMAN, Assistant Bishop of Pennsylva nia, will take place in Christ Church, Phila delphia, on Wednesday, the 25th inst., It is understood that Bishop KEMPF.R, of Wisconsin, • will preside, assisted by Bishop POTTER, of New York, Bishop LEE, of Delaware, and Assistant Bishop WILLIAMS, of Connecticut, with probably another Bishop, not yet nomi nated. The canons of the Church require but three to be present, but it is usual to nomin ate five, in case any of them should be unex pectedly prevented from attending. DISASTROUS FIRE AT NIAGARA FALLS.—A fire broke out on Thursday, at noon, in the rag room of the Niagara Falls Paper Mill,on Bath Island. The fire was caused by the explosion j of the boiler in the engine room, which threw ofT the entire roof, spreading the fire in all di rections. The loss 011 the building and machin ery is reported at SIOO,OOO. and the insurance lat about $65,000. The premises were owned by L. C. Woodruff, of Dansville, N. Y. 1 An Irishman named WM. WIGSTEIM, in ! Springfield township, was burned in his barn, several days since. When the neighbors eara'e |to the fire, he was discovered through the I flames in erect position, seated upon the barn- I sill, though it was impossible to reach him. It is supposed that in a state of intoxication, he endeavored to light his pipe with a match, and communicated fire to the straw in the barn, aud j being unable to save himself perished. JteaS'*" The Democracy is having n lively time 1 in some of the Congressional districts of the lower part of the State. In JOHN HICKMAN'S the janissaries of the Administration arc en deavoring to hunt him down, and the County meetings and Conventions in Chester and Delaware have split, one portion re-nominat ing HICKMAN —the Lecomptouites nominating C. D. MAXLEV. Governor Packer and family are now settled comfortably in the Executive mansion, purchased by the Legislature for the residence of our Governors. The building is a tasty and well-finished one, situated in Second st., imme diately above the site of the late Presbyterian church, iu Harrisburg.

The Constitutionalists are triumphant at every point ; Guanajuato, Guadalajara and Zacatecas have been conquered ; and Presi dent ZULOACA is preparing to defend the Capi tal, where, befoft long, the final battle must be fought. VIDACHKI is again in the field, and be will not probably leave it until peace has been restored. fta y Since the breaking out of hostilities with the Indians in Washington Territory no. thing has been heard at the Indian Bureau of its agents there. They have either been very neglectful of their duty or they have been dealt foully with. It is feared that the latter is the case. fay The returns of the election in Kansas, which begin to come in with some degree of accuracy, indicate a majority of 10,000 to 12,- 000 against the English bill. A number of precincts remain to be heard from. 6&- On Saturday last the Columbia water works, ut Columbia, Pa., were sold at public sale for $15,350, and purchased by Col. Sam'l Shocb, cashier ot the Columbia Bank, whose .intention, we understand, is to form a company. The works could not have fallen into better hands. THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH. THE ARRANGF.MF.NT3 FOR WORKING THE CABLE — PROBABLE CAL'SE OF TIIF. DEI.AV. TRINITY HAY, (X. F.) Friday, Aug 13. All the arrangements for working the cable are confided exclusively to the assistants of Professor WHITEHOUSE, the Electrician-iri-chief of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, and as all their operations are conducted privately, and they decline to give any information be yond the fact that signals are successfully and constantly passing through the cable from the Telegraph office here to the Telegraph office at Valencia Bay, Ireland, all rumors repre senting a different state of things are unfound ed. Although it is not known, except to the Electricians immediately connected with the cable, what progress is being made in working Professor WHITEHOUSE'S recording instruments, we hazard little in saying that it has as yet been found impossible to work them success fully. No doubt, however, is entertained that the Hughes invention, when ready, will over come all difficulties. ST. Jon.vs, (X. F.) Friday, Aug. 13. To the repeated inquiries which were made every hour through the day as to the condition of the cable and the probabilities about the reception of the Queen's message, we arc unable to return any other answer than that the cable remains all right—the electrical signals passing through its whole length satis factorily: that the electricians have not yet con cluded their arrangements for putting their re cording. instruments into operatiou. THE LINE WORKING ONE WAY BUT NOT THF. OTHER. TRINITT DAY. X. F,. Sunday, Aug. 14. . To the Directors of the Atlantic Telegraph Company Ntw i York : The cause of our not transmitting and re ceiving intelligence through, is that the instru ments require a great deal of care and adjust ing iu getting them ready. I am doing this as fast as it is possible. Von should not look upon the Cable as an ordinary short telegraph line that can be worked through directly. The Cable has been successfully laid and telegraph ic signals are passed through it at onr pleasure but we have encountered many little difficulties which it requires time and many experiments to entirely overcome, but we sec no reason to doubt that we shall be able within a few days to surmount all difficulties. I will send 1 yon the earliest intimation of the probable time when the Queen's Message may be expected. DE SAXTY. [XOTE.' In addition to the above, we have seen a private despatch from a reliable gentle ; mas at St. Johns, who is in a position to I obtain the earliest and most correct unofficial intelligence concerning the cable, which states that the instruments at Trinity Bay record with a good degree of success the eoinmunica ; tions from tho electricians at the Valentin , office, but that owing to some as yet unex plained cause, it lias been impossible to send that or any other intelligence to the operators at Valentin. This is a state of things which often occurs upon the land lines, i. e , one office , can receive correctly from a distant operator, and yet be unable to send a word in return ; and the difficulty, sooner or latter, is found to | be in the battery, its connections, or the in- I struments, and there is no reason to doubt that the present difficulty in working the cable will, as soon as the electricians can compare notes, be entirely overcome. Rep.] DOUBLE MURDER IN GOSHEN, X. Y.— A double murder was committed in Goshen, Or ange county, X. \ , Tuesday cveuiug, under i the following circumstances : It seems that Mr. Charier W. Reeves,farm cr in the viciuity of the above named place, had in his employ a young girl, a German,as a ; domestic. Xot long since, during the haying season, Mr. It. came to Xew Y'ork City audi en gaged a young man, also a German, named Sanders, to work for him during the Summer. In a short time Sanders fell desperately in love with the aforesaid girl, but his affection was I either treated with contempt, or, at all events, ! not reciprocated. Xot long since, Mr. R. engaged another man to assist him, and he, too, was smitten by j the charms of his fair f el!ow servant, and in this case suit was laid with success. Of course, this rendered both parties obnoxious to San -1 ders, and was the cause of the murder. Last night at 10 o'elock or thereabouts, he went to the house of Mr. R and finding the parties to gether delioerately shot them both, instantly killing the man, and inflicting a mortal ivonnd on the girl. Immediately after the commission |of the murder, Sanders fled,and at last accouuts ! had not been taken. The girl was not yet dead at 7 this A. M., bnt could not possibly survive. She made an affidavit to the above facts last night. San ders is a German, as are all three of the par ties concerned ; is about 5 feet 8 inches high, brown hair and florid complexion. He passed through the villages of Chester and Turner's early this morning. A telegraphic dispatch was sent this morn ing to the Police head quarters of this City, asking the Police to look out for the murder er.
