Everybody in Croyton had, learn

-had been published in the papers;
everybody, save , it few friends, had
made up thoir midds that Mr. lierri

Isabel Wild had attracted his at

tened to Millie Thorne's, she wore .a
glittering diamond ring, that had
been placed there as a seal of their
betrothal.
Ineerised and inflamed by Millie's
enthusiasuk, Isabel returned to her
own home thoroughly satisfied that
Millie Thorne still loved Louis Mer
ritale, despite her faithlessness, de•
spite his mysterious conduct.

she said ho needed a friend in this

bitter; bitter heart pang—one
yearidng longing for her loved one;
then it died; or rather, in a moment,
Isabel Wild burned alive the love of
her life.
Day after day passed, , bringing
their shire of joys and heartmehings,
and still Louis Merrivale never came;
the affair had ceased to be a seven
days': wonder; and people had for
gotten about it, save when they tiaw
his aged mother, bowed and infirm,
leaning' on Millie Thorne's strong
young arm, as they walked through
the streets of Croydon. •
Millie had grown more beautiful
during these weeks of trial ; and -the
aged mother of the missing young
marl had many occasions to bless the
loing, trusting girl.
The days wore on, bringing to
Millie, in her patient waiting -and
hoping against hope, to Isabel, in her
overwhelming pride, the glad autum

and George Halliday took his wife.to

.The setting October sun was
flinging its rosy banner. over tio

ministrations had made her an angel
of sympathy.'
Mrs. Merrivale met her half-way to,
the door, 'her eyes streaming with
tears, her face all alight with an
overpowering joy. -
" Millie—oh, my. prayers

innocent was righted, the guilty re•

It was a thrilling story. Hoir
George Halliday had waylaid Louis
Merrivale while returning from thg
counting-house to. his city lodging . ;
how he . had stolen the money from
his person—inOney that .Merrivale
had taken perhaps imprudently, for .
the purpose of paying a number of
bills before he went, to the office the
following day; hOw he Lai previously
prepared the forged rote; and how,
after drugging his victim he had him
conveyed to a sailing vessel, and
registered him as a sick friend, who
desired to return to his home in the
West Indies. Sickness had 'followed
the 'drugging ; and, * in a strange
place, amon strangers, LouisMer

strength brought back memory and
the ability to act.- ' •
Steps were taken to prove Mr.
Merrivale's accusation. The bank
notes were, finally traced to Halliday.
Thus disgraced and dishonored, he
left his prouckiheart-broken wife, to
the mercy of. an indignant circle of
relatives. •
The elegant mansion was deserted,
and was purchased by Merand 1

Did you ever witness a wedding at
a maire in Paris! , . If' not; go some .
Saturday, for that is the day which,
though never-chosen by fashionable
people, seems to be set apart especial
ly for the class .who labor, , exist by
the fruits of their labor, and have' no
time to lose. They have - - Sunda y to
faire la note, and on . Monday they
put themselves once more at work.
About eleven a. m. generally, the
fiancee, their relatives, ; and, their
witnesses all meet together. Some of
the company hare bronghtwith them
their children; dressed in new clothes
for the grand occasion, frizzed, pb - ma
loaded, and " got upiregardless':' in -
honor of the festive event. The
garcons de nice are dooming in ap
pearance, the intended husband and
wife are critically inspected by all
the company. They try, therefore,-
to pub on an air of modest indiffer
ience and naturally enough do not
make much of a success of it: If.le
maire, or his adjoinl has arrived. He
puts on the tmeolored scarf, across
his breast/diagonally, which glorious
scarf, in; the eyes of the people, con
fers on him alone the power of " pro
nouncing the magic words whose
effect, no human power— can ever
break. He takes in his hands a little
book, bound in red morocco, gives . a
glance at'the mirror in order to as
sure himself that his cravat is cor
rectly tied', and goes forward to the
pretoire, where. a low platform sup
porting a mahogany stand represents
the tribunal of indissoluble unions.
A servant playing the rote of huiisier
announces If. le maire. He enters.

the season, however—cold_iLmay be,'
the doors always stand wide open,
for the act of marriage is essentially
public. A gre.ffier (or recorder) is
seated before a pulpit-like desk with
a,register before him, -which big book
resembles huge ledger in kcount
ing-room. - A name . is called. Jhen
advance to the little platform the
fiances, the Jelatives, the witnesses ;
they arrange themselves in front of ,
the maire in some red velvet arm
chairs, which remind one of the or
chesti a stalls in our theatres.. The
greffier reads the commencement of
the marriage act. Then - the maim
calling the„candidates for matrimony
by name, asks of them each individu
ally if the consent 'to 'take the other
as spouse., Their response must be"
made clearly and loudly id such
manner as to be distinctly' heard by
all present:- • If therenre present the
proaenitois of the couple.„the nittire
ask; them if they give their consent
to- the mirriage of their children .
Then, if granted, he opens the little
red bOok, i .reads articles 212, 21 3, 214
Of the Oode Civil, relative to the
rights and duties of the spouses, ter
minating with article 226, which say :
"The wife may make a' will 'without
the authorization of her husband."
-The ones. who most often accept this
permission are, so it is said, Hebrews.
The moire then declares the couple
"united - marriage." The grellier .
resuming his reading, finishes it; the
temoins, the, relatives and the mar
ried eouple are invited to sign the

Hotspnrs were in the field. Petition?.
after petition in favor of one or the
other poured in upon the President,
and delegation after delegation has

last. He could not determine that
one applicant was in the slightest de--
g ree more competent or more patriotic
or better supported than the other.
Finally, after being bored by a fresh
delegation, he said to his secretary :
"This matter has got to end some
how. Bring a pair of scales." The
scales were . brought. "Now put in
all the petitions and letters in favor
of one man = and see how much they
'weigh, and weigir the otherlellows

was three.quarters of a pound heavier
than the other. "Make out an sp•

Lincoln, and it was done.--E. V. •
