The Poll Mall 'Gazette contains • the folloW-
Ing . very interesting arfiefe :
The announcement that the line of rail be
tween St. Petersburg and Odessa has just been
coMpleted, recalls the comparatively recent
time When a' journey between:, those two, ciGira,
was one of those tritili : to';wlfich a , 'OlO
resigned himself under the nreisine of stern
necessity. Within, the memory of middle-aged
--men the Imperial courier who set out once a
week for the South with the Government
despatebes;' took an affecting leaVe of his
friends before starting; for unless it was dur
ing the fine season—and , : , :‘,Rtissia :the_ fine
season for traveling was 'the winter-at
re
quired about six weeks to reach Odessa and
as many More to return, added to which the '
risks of the voyage were such that no insur
'ance company against accidents • could have
paid its expenses. When Catherine 11. went on
her famous journey through .the empire with
Potemkin she wria stilt& diY:thatoolo, con
dition of, the roads,' and' set a French engineer
to work, upon a colossal scheme for cutting
new highways throughout the whole of Russia.
Such as they were the roads at that time were
due to the enterprising spirit of Peter the Great,
before whose reign no such thing as a compe
tent engineer had ever been seen in the coun
try. • With that feverish ambition which char,
acterized him,. the eccentric •nionarch, had
conceived the project of intersecting 'the whele
of his dominions with fine roads like the one
he had admired between Paris and, 'ersailles;
and although with such incapable subjects as
the Ilit:ssiatis then were, it was impossible
that such a grandiose plan could ever
be executed, • yet; the.' Czar ; succeeded:' so
far that lie covered the country with
roads of some, sort and—what was a still
greater feat—.-conipelled : the provincial gOvern
ors to keep them in repair. At his,, death,
however, the Russians, who had been kept
during twenty' years in a state of preternatural
activity, took breathingtime'once more. , The
roads were left to themselves, and by the time
the Empress Catharine went on her voyage
they had in a great many localities ,disappeared
altogether. The French engineer commissioned
by the Empress to remedy this state of things
drew up a plan as he was bidden ; and a,yery
fine plan it was. But Russia was a country iu
which good intentions were easier to form than
to realize. A decree was, indeed, , issued, en
joining provincial governors and land-holding
nobles to have the roads every Where
repaired, and a - special . tax was levied
to aid them in their exertions. But
the proceeds of the tax went into the
pockets of the officials deputed to levy it, and
nothing was definitely accomplished In the way
of road-making until the reign of Paul; when
the "Great Highway," as it was euphemistically
termed, stood completed. This great highway
consisted in an unbroken double row of posts,
placed eighty yards apart, and extending from
Moscow to Odessa. Between the two rows
was ,supposed to be a road; but this
was an illusion entertained by geography books
for the instruction of schoolboys, and by offi
cial eulogists for the edification of the Emperor.
In point of fact there was no road. The posts,
however, were useful, for, when' they were not
cut down by the peasants for firewood, they
served to show travelers the shortest way from
one town to another, and prevented them from
losing themselves on the snow-covered steppes.
During the • whole of the reign of
Paul' and the greater part of that of
Alexander I. traveling continued to be a pil
grimage full of discomfort and danger. In the
summer months it took eighteen days to go
from St. Petersburg
,to Moscow, a distance of
577 miles ; and by the end of the journey one's
carriage—e'en when it' had been brand new
at staitingwas hopelessly smashed and
ruined. Those whO could hot afford a new
carriage every time they traveled, rode in a
conveyance called the lelegit, which is still
used in the interior of the country where
there are no railways. It is a sort of box
parched on two high wheels, 'but without
springs. Three horses are 'harnessed abreast
to it; the coachman sits in front, on a board,
which acts as seat, and the passenger places
himself on a similar board behind. No
one but a Russian can stand a jour
ney in one of these vehicles. The
horses go at full gallop, the telega
bounds over ruts and stones like a football.
The passenger is not jerked or shaken—these
words have no sense in this case—but posi
tively thrown aloft hibi), the air. By the time
he reaches his deftination a foreigner in a
telega gasps for breath ; he is - sick and haggard,
and feels as completely disjointed as if he had
. been under the rack. Alexander I. set about
improving the means of traveling, and
during his reign a really magnificent road was
laid down between the old and new capital of
Russia. After his death the work of 'reform
was continued by his brother, the Emperor
Nicholas, who, whatever may have been his
faults, knew how to make his orders obeyed,
and always pushed to a very speedy termina
tion any schemes he had set his heart Upon.
In 1832 a regular system of commu
nication was inaugurated between St;
Petersburg and Moscow on the French
diligence plan. Eleven public diligences and
one mail-coach started every day from each of
the two cities. Post-houses with relays were
established at intervals of fifteen miles apart,
and the journey that had formerly occupied
eighteen days was now performed in four, the
fare being for the whole distance no more than
twenty roubles (.1:3 45.). This was not all,
however. for a great . deal yet remained to be
(-done before traveling was bearable. There
were no inns or hotels in Russia, - except at St.
Petersburo• b and Moscow. , Nidjni-Novgorod,
Mew, and Odessa had not so much as a decent
tavern where a stranger might rest. The only
places where travelers could alight if they had
no friends to offer them hospitality were the
public houses, dens infinitely more unsavory
than the beer-shops of Seven Dials.
There were no beds there, no dressing
rooms, nothing, in short, but a common tap
room, where travelers who had 'not brought
their provisions were obliged to content them
selves with a drink of abominably strong whisky
(vodki), sour Cabbage soup, and black bread of
a taste impossible to conceive. The Emperor
Nicholas, who knew that it was useless to ex
pect that private enterprise should endow the
country with hotels, undertook to do it him
self. All the post-houses were converted into
inns by the addition of large barrack-looking
buildings of red brick, uniform in size and as-,
pect. These edifices took the generic name of
"The Czar's hospitality," and accommodation;
in so far as hot tea, a warm fire,
and a comfortable bedroom went, was
afforded to all travelers gratis, From
this time may be said virtually to date the
practice of traveling in Russia; for previously
to the institution of the diligences and post
houses the only people who journeyed were
noblemen, postmen,. soldiers, and exiles. Mer
chants and commercial travelers at most went
on a voyage once in the course of a year; but
• trade was so limited in its operroions that few
merchants looked for customers beyond the
limits of their native cities. It was with a sort
of stupefaction that the Russians of the middle
classes witnessed the inauguration of the splen
did diligence terminus in the Great Morskaia
street at St: Petersburg. Everything that lux
ury and comfort could devise had been lavished
upon the furnishing of the waiting
rooms and bedrooms. Passengers
who arrived late at night were
into apartments which to many of them
r . itht• have teemed like the chambers of a
palace, and what appeared not the least sur
prising feature of the new institution was that
' the hungry could regale themselves upon . an
'excellent hot supper at a very small cost. If
i! we dwell upon these facts, it is that the same
V coziness' which presided over the arrangements
of the:first post-houses was introduced later by.
the Russians into the appointing of their rail
way carriages and railway stations. The first
Russian railway, that from St., Petersburg to
Czarakoe-Selo, was a marvel of comfort and

There are few more inns now than there were
fifty years ago; the roads are bad, the relays
uncertain, and in cases of accident 'one must
shift for oneself, for farriers and wheelwrights
by no means abound. The best time for trav
eling is in the depth of winter,when it has been
, freezinkbard for 'bevel . * *eeks. The snow
then affords thi - best possible of roads, and in a
three-horse troika one may go at a speed very
much swifter than that Of the fastest of mail
coaches. The troika is a light sledge built to
hold two besides the driver. The Onto horses
are harnessed abreast, and gallop. like the
wind. The passengers llep . ather thab ,bit,prapped
lapin furs,,and'if the'driver lie skiffid4tliat iS,
if he does not spill his conveyance every now
and then in the snow—the exhilarating speed
makes the journey a very pleasant one. The
enjoyment is, however, considerably marred at
times by the tedious formalities that have to be
gone through at each relay. If a person be
traveling in his own vehicle, sledge, or car
riage, he mnst be provided with a padoroslina

There is no country for which railways can
do more than for Russia. Hitherto the diffi
culties of traveling have been so numerous that
the empire can scarcely be said to have had
any real unity. St. Petersburg was as much
of a foreign land to Odessa as Paris was, and
in the interior of the country there were 'cer
tainly a good many peasants who were igno
rant that such a place as St. Petersburg ex
isted. Russia was, in fact, nothing more than:
an inert, disjointed agglomeration of provinces;
The extension of railways will galvanize this
vast body and give it life ; with what results
events, will probably soon show.
The foll — Wing keen little essay is taken by
Every Saiiiiday cram Murray's new monthly,
the Academy
This is neither the time nor the place to
attempt any complete, account of .the remark
able man whose pen, busy to the end, and to
the end charming and instructing us, has
within the last few weeks dropped from :his
hand forever. A few words 'are all that the
occasion allows, and it is hard not, to make
them words of mere regret and eulogy. , Most
of what is•at this mement written about . him
is in this strain, and very naturally : the world
has some arrears to make up, to him, and now,
if ever, it feels this. Late, and' as it were by
accident, he came to his due estimation in
France; here in England it is only within the
last ten years that he can be said to have been
publicly known at all. We who write these
lines knew him long and • owed' him much ;
something of that debt we will en
deavor to pay, not, as we our
selves might be most inclined, by fol
lowing the' impulse
. of the hour and simply
praising him, but, as he himself would ..have
preferred by recalling what, in sum he chiefly
was, and what is the essential scope of his ef
.fort and working.
Shortly before Sainte-Beuve's death appeared
a new edition of his Portraits Contemporains,
one of his earlier works, of which the contents
date from 1b:32 and 1833, before his method
and manner of criticism were finally formed.
But the new edition is enriched with notes
and retouches, added as the volumes were
going through the press, and which bring our
communications with him down to these very
latest months of his life. Among them is a com
ment on a letter of • Madame George Sand, in
.which she had spoken of the admiration excited
by. of his articles. "I leave this as it
standS,".says he, "because the sense and the
connection of the passage require it; but, per
swine ne salt mieux que moi a quoi s'en tenir
stir le merite absolu de ces articles qui sont
tout au plus, et BE me lorsqu'ils retaBiBB67d le

aggerations de l'amitie. Reserrons
pour les wurres de paisie et d'art, pour
les compositions elevees ; la plus gran& gloire
(la critique cat dens l'approbation " et dans
l'estime des buns esprits."
This comment, which extends to his whole
work as a critic, has all the good-breeding and
delicacy by which Sainte-Beuve's writing was
diStinguished, and it expresses, too, what was
Lola great extent, no doubt, his sincere convic
tion. Like so many who have tried their hand
at' worres de poesie et d'art, his preference, his
dream, his ideal, was there ; the rest was com
paratively journeyman work, to be done well
and estimably rather than ill and discreditably,
and with precious rewards of its own besides
imexereising the faculties and in keeping! off
ennui : but still work of an inferior order.
Net when one looks at the names on the
title-pace of the Portraits Contemporuins :
Cbateardiriand, Belanger, Laniennais, Lamar'
tine. Victor Ingo, George Sand,—nanies rep
resenting, in our judgment, very different
degrees of eminence, but none of which We
114ve the least inclination to disparage,—is it
certain that the works of poetry and art to
which these names are: attached eclipse the
%%ink done by Sainte-Beuve ? Could Sainte
lleuve have had what was no doubt his will,
and in the line of the Consolations and Vo/upte
haNe produced works with the power and vogue
ofi tatnartine's works, or Chateaubriand's, or
Iltigo's, would he have been more interesting
to us to-day,—would he have stood perma
nently higher:' We venture to doubt it,.
Woilis of poetry and art like Moliere'S and Mil
ton's eclipse no doubt all productions of the
order of the Cthiseries an "'vital, and the
highest language of admiration may very pro
very be reserved for such works alone. In
ferior works in the sane kind have their mo
ment of vogue when their admirers apply to
them this language ; there is a moment when
a drama of lingo's finds a public to speak of it
• .te if it were Moliere's, and a poem of Lamar
' tine's finds a public to speak of it as if it weie
Milton's. At no moment will a public be found
to speak of work like Sainte-Beuve's Causeries
in such fashion ; and if this alone were re
gal ded, one might allow one's self to leave to
his work the humbler- rank which he assigns
to it. But the esteem inspired by his work re
mains and grows, while the vogue of all works
of poetry and art but the best, and
high-pitched .admiration which goes with
Negue, diminish and disappear; and this re
dresses the balance.
Five-arid-twenty years ago it would have
seemed absurd in France to place Sainte-Beuve,
as a French author, on a level with Lamartine.
Lamartine bad, at that tintei still his vogue,
and though assuredly no Moliere or Milton,had
for the time of his vogue the halo which sur
rounds properly none but great poets like these.
'Fo this Sainte-13euve cannot:pretend, but what
does Lamartine retain of it now? It would
still be absurd to place Sainte-Beuve on a level
with Moliere or Milton; is it any longer ab
surd to place him on a level with Lamartine,
or even above him? In other words, eked
lent work in a lower kind counts in the king
inn above work which is short of excellence in,
a higher; first-rate criticism has a permanent
value greater than that of any bUt first-rate
works of poetry and art.

cised with unfailing acuteness those who did
“Toequeville areidait aced son mottle tout
prit ; le reality n'y repond paB, et les choses ne
se 2n•elent pas a y entree."
M. de Tocqueville commands Mitch more
siimpathy in England than his critic, and the
very mention of him will awaken impressions
unfavorable to Sainte-Beuve ; for the French
Liberals honor Tocqueville and at heart dis
like Sainte-Beuve ; and people in England al
ways take their cue from the French Liberals.
For that very reason have we boldly selected
for quotation this criticism on him because the
course criticised in Tocqueville is precisely the
course with which an Englishman would sym
pathize, and which he would be apt to take
himself; while Sainte-Beuve, in criticising him
shows just the tendency which ishis characteris
tic and by. which he is of use to us. Tocqueville,
as 'is well known; finds in the ancient regime
all the germs of, the centralization which the
French Revolution developed and established.
This centralization is his bugbear, as it is the
bugbear of English Liberalism; and directly
he finds it, the system where it appears is
,judged. Disliking, therefore, the French Revo
lution for its centralization, and then' finding
centralization hi the ancient regime also, he at
once sees. in this discovery "mile motifs nou
veaux de hair ranelen regime." How entirely
does every Englishman abound hero as the
French say, in Tocqueville's sense; how faith
fully have all Englishmen repeated and re
echoed Tocqueville's book on the . ancient
regime ever since it was published; how in
capable are they of supple or of imagining
the need of supplying, any corrective to it !
But hear Sainte-Beuve :
"Dans son effioi de la ceittralisation,l'auteur
en vient a meconnaitre de bands bienfaits
d'equiti.; dus a Richelieu et A. Louis XIV.
IlOmme du peuple on bourgeois, sous Louis
NHL, tie valait-il pas mieux avoir un

neur de province, a quelque due trEpernon ?
Ne inaudissons pas ceux a qui - nous devous les

premiere ehauclie de l'ordre moderne qui nous
a attrancliis, nous et nos pores, et le tiers-etat
tout entier, de rate quantite - de petits tyraus
qui couvraient le sol, grinds seigneurs ou hob
ereaux."
The point of view of Sainte-Betive,is as little
that of aglowing Revolutionist as it is' that of
a chagrined Liberal ; it is that of a Man who
seeks the , truth about the ancient regime and
its institutions, anti who instinctively seeks to
correct anything strained and arranged in the
representation of them. " Voyonm les ehoses
de Thistoire tales" Welles se sort yamies."
At the risk of offending the prejudices of
English readers we have thus gone for an ex
ample of Sainte-Teuve's essential method to a
sphere where bis application of it makes a
keen impression, and created for him, in his
lifetime, warm enemies and detractors. In
that sphere it is not easily permitted to a man
to be a naturalist, blit a naturalist Sainte-
Bettye could not help being always. Acd
dentally, at the end of his life, he (Ave delight
to the Liberal opinion of his own country and
ours by his famous speech in the Senate ou
behalf of . free thought: He did but follow
his instinct, however, of opposing, in what
ever medium he was, the current of that me
diuin when it seemed excessive and
tyrannous. The extraordinary Social power
of French Catholicism makes itself specially
felt in an assembly like the Senate. An elderly
Frenchman of the upper class is apt to be, not
'infrequently, a man of pleasure, reformed or .
exhausted, and the deference of such a per
sonage to repression and Cardinals is gener
ally excessive.. This was enough to rouse
Sainte-Heti - v . 6's opposition; but he would have
had the same tendency to oppose the heady
current of a medium wheie there Liberalism
reigned, where it was Professor Fawcett, and
not the Archbishop of Bordeaux, who took the
bit.in his teeth:
That Sainte-Beuve stopped short at curiosity,
at the desire to know things , as they really are,
and did not press on with faith and ardor to
the various and immense aPplications of this
knowledge which suggest themselves, and of
which the accomplishment is reserved for the
futme, was due in part to his character, but
more to his date, his period, his circumstances.
14 it be enough for a man to have served
well one need of his age ; and among
and rhetoricianB to have been a natu
ralist, at a Lime when for any good and lasting
work in government and literature our old con
ventional draught of the nature 'of things

,•,; ebotild lie'diere, Vas a matter equally Itillefl

born of his ;physical vonditkm, anfinsed and

The spectacle of a drunken man—and of
this drunken' man in 'partieular—was not. I
W s ; to say, of sufficient novelty ,In Red
I', - Mi attract attention. Earlief , in.l4Oflity,
~ gim e local Satirist had , erected a • ternporary
tombstone at Sandy's head, • bearing the , in
scription,' "Effects 'of McCorkle's whisky—
kills at 40 rods," with a hand pointing to,
McCtirldetti Saloon'.' , But this, r I s,, imagine,
watielike most local, 'Mani, personal; and
was a reflection uppn
,• the unfairness
of the process, rather than a commentary upon
/ She impropriety of the,reeult. With this fa
cetious exception Sandy had been undisturbed.
A Wandering mule, released from his pack,had
cropped the scant: herbage s botilde hitn, arid
sniped curiously at the prostrate man ; a vaga
bond dog, with that deep sytispa.thy which the
species have for .' drunken men, had licked his
dusty boots,,and, curled himself up at his' feet;
and lay there, blinking one eye in the sunlight,
with . a simulation of dissipation that, was
iellenictUe and dog-like in its implied flattery'
of the unconscious man beside him.
Meanwhile, the shadows, of the pine trees
bad elowly swung around until they, crossed
the road, and their trunks barred the open
meadow with gigantic parallels of black and
yellow. Little putts of red dust, lifted
by the. plunging hoofs of pass
ing teams,dispersed in a grimy , shower upon
the recumbent man: The sun sank lower and
lower ; and still Sandy stirred not. And then
the repose of this philosopher was disturbed--
as other philosophers have been—by the in
trasion of an unphilosophical sex!.
"Miss Mary" as she was known to the lit•
fie flock that she had just dismissed from the
log schoof-house beyond the pines—was taking
her afternoon walk. Observing an unusually
fine cluster of blossoms on the azalea bush op
posite. she crossed the road to pluck it--pick
ing her way through the red dust, note without
certain fierce little shivers of disgust,and some
feline circumlocution. And then she came
suddenly upon Sandy!
Of COMM, she uttered the little staccato cry
of her sex. But when she had paid that tribute
to her physical weakness she became overbold,
and halted for a moment--ritleast six feet from
this prostate monster—with her white skirts
gathered in her hand, ready for flight. But
neither sound nor motion came from the bush.
With one little foot she then overturned the
satirical head-board, and muttered "Beasts!"
,
—an epithet which probably, at that moment,
conveniently classified in her mind the entire
male population of Red Quid'. For Miss
Mary, being possessed of certain rigid notions
of her own, had not, perh, properly appre

ated the demonstrative gal ntry which the
Californian has been so j by celebrated by
his brother Californians, .had, as a new
comer, perhaps, fairly can the reputation of
being " stuck up."'s-,--r- •'"
As she stood there, she noticed, also,
that the Merit sunbeams were healing
Sandy's head to what she judged to be an un
healthy temperature, and that his bat was
lying uselessly at his side. To pick it up and
place it over his face was a work
requiring some courage. particularly as
his eyes were open. Yet she did it, and made
good her retreat. But. she was somewhat
concerned, on looking back, to see that the
hat was removed, and that Sandy was sitting
up and saying something.
The truth was, that its the calm depths of
Sandy's mind, he was satisfied that the rays of
the sun were beneficial and healthful; that,
fruit childhood he had objected to iyinfrdown
in a hat ; that no people but condemne7l fools,
past redemption, ever wore, hats; and that his
right, to dispense with them when lie pleased
V. as inalienable. This was the statement of
his inner consciousness. Unfortunately, its
outward exprsion was vague, being
limited to a repetition of the
following formula : uSu'shine all
ri' ! Wasser =tar, eh? ‘Vass up, stt'shine ?"
Miss Mary stopped, and, taking fresh courage
from her vantage of• distance, asked him if
time was anything that be•wanted
"Wass up? WaSSet wear?" continued San
dy, in a very high kty.
..t.iet up, you horrid man!" said Miss Mary.

ward a few paces, and then stopped.
"Wass I ce hum for 1" he suddenly asked,
with great gravity.
"Go and take a bath,',' replied Miss Mary,
• ying his grimy person with great disfavor.
To her infinite dismay, Sandy suddenly pulled
ff his coat. and vest, threw them on the ground,
• eked off his boots, and plunging wildly for
ward, darted headlong over the hill, ip the di
! •ction of the river. -
"Goodness heavens! the man will be'
'•4 rowned !" said Miss Mary; and then, with
' eminine inconsistency, she ran back to the
.
pool-house, and locked herself in.
That night, while seated at supper, with her
hostess--the blacksmith's wife—it came to
Miss Mary to ask, demurely, if her husband.

ctidger, reflectively—"bet's see,: Abner hasn't

.ffiereseence—and then dismissed the subject
iltogether. The next day she wrote to her
earest friend, in Boston: "I think I find the
moxicated portion of this community the least
bjectionable. I refer, my dear,to the men, of
.ourse. Ido not know anything that could
ake the women tolerable."
In less than a week Miss Mary hnd for
often this episode—except that her afternoon
elks took, thereafter, almost unconsciously,
?pother direction. She noticed, however, that
every morning a fresh cluster of azalea blos-
t o' ins appeared among the IThWers on her desk.
fhis was not strange, as her little flock were
ware of her fondness for dowers;And invari-
Illy kept her' desk . bright With 'anemones,
yriugas and lupines ; but, on questioning
1. • trolley; one and all, professed.ignorance of
•le azaleas. A few days later, Master Johnny

These facts Miss Mary was. not. slew to take

the head of her brood, until romping, laughing
and panting, with a loosened braid of brown
hair, a hat hanging by a knotted ribbon from
her throat, she came suddenly and violently, in
the hmrt of the. forest, upon—the luckless
Sandy!
• The explanations, apologies ' and not oven
wise conversation that ensued, need not be in
dicated here. , It would seem, however,
that Miss 'Mary bad already established
some acquaintance with this , ex
drunkard. Enough • that he was soon
accepted as ono of the party; that the children,
with that quick intelligence which Providence
gives the helpless. recognized -a friend, and
played with, his blonde heard, and long, silken
mustache, and took other liberties—as the
helpless are apt to do. And when he bad built
a fire against a tree, and had shown them other
mysteries of woodcraft, their admiration knew
no bounds. At the close -of two such foolish,
idle, happy hours, he found himself lying at
the feet of the school-mistress, gazing dreamily
in her face—as she sat upon the sloping hill
side, weaving wreaths of laurel and syringa—
in very much the same attitude as he had lain
when first they met. Nor was the similitude
greatly, forced. The weakness of an easy, sen
suous nature, that hatifound a dreamy exalta
tion in liquor, it is 'to be feared was now find
ing an equal intoxication in love.
I think that Sandy was dimly con
scious •of this, himself. I kmow that he
longed to be doing something—slaying
a grizzly, scalping a savage, or sacrificing him
self in some way for the sake of this sallow
faced, gray-eyed school-mistress. As 1 shouht

So they sat there, undisturbed—the wood
peckers chattering overhead, and the voices of
the children coming pleasantly from the hollow
below. What they said matters' little. What
they thought—which 'might have been inter
esting7-did not transpire. The woodpeckers
only learned how Miss Mary was an orphan;
how she left her uncle's house, to come to Cal- .
ifornia, for the sake of health and independ-;
_ence; bow Sandy was an orphan,
too; bow he came to California for
excitement; bow he had lived a wild
life, and hoW he was trying to reform; and
other details, which, from a woOdpecker's view
point, undoubtedly must have seemed stupid,
and a waste of time. . But-even in such trifles
was the afternoon spent ; and when the chil
dren were again gathered, and Sandy, with a•
delicacy which the school-mistress well under
stood, took leave of'them quietly at the out
skirts of the settlement, it had seemed the
shortest day of her weary life.
-As the long, dry summer withered to its
roots, the school term of Red Gulch—to use 'a
local euphuism 7 --" dried up" also. In another
day Miss Mary Would be free ; and for a season,
at least, Red Gulch would know her no more.
She was seated alone in the school-house,
her cheek resting on her hand, her eyes
half cloied in one of those day-dreams
in which Miss Mary—l. fear, to the dan
ger of school discipline—was lately in the habit
of indulging. Her lap was full of mosses, ferns,
and other woodland memories. She was so
preoccupied with these rind her other thoughts
that a gentle tapping at the door passed un
heard, or translated itself into the remembrance
of far-pff woodpeckeis. When at last it as
serted itself more . distinctly, she Started up
,with a'ilushed cheek and opened the door. On
the threshold stood a woman, the self-assertion
and audacity of whose dress were in singular
contrast to her timid, irresolute bearing.
Miss Mary recognized at a glance the dubiou s mother of her anonymous pupil. Perhaps she
was disappointed—perhaps she was only -fas
tidious—but as she coldly invited her to enter,
she half unconsciously settled her white cuffs
and collar, and gathered closer her own chaste
skitta. It was, Nrhaps; for this reason
that the embarraSsed stranger, 'after.. a
moment's hesitation, left her gorgeous
parasol ,open and sticking .in the dust beside•
the door, and then sat down at the farther end
of a long bench. Her voice was husky as she
I heerd tell that you were goin' down to
the Bay to-morrow and I couldn't let you go
until I came to thank you fiar your,kindness to
my Tornmy."
Tommy, Miss Mary said, was' a good boy,
and deserved more than the poqr attention she
could'give him.
"Thank you, Miss ! Thank ye!" cried the
stranger, brightening _ even through the color
which Red Gulch knew facetiously as her
" wat, ,paint," and striving,in her eitibarras"B-,
I ment, to drag the long bench ; nearer the school
mistress. '' thank yeti, Miss, for that! anti if
I am his mother, there ain't a sweeter, dearer
_ii lives than him. And if I ain't much,
as says it, thar ain't a sweeter, dearer, angelet
teacher lives than he's got."
Miss Mary, sitting primly behind her deski
with a .ruler - over her shoulder, opened het
gray eyes widely at this; but said no th ing.
"It ain't for you to be complimented by the

take my Tommy—God bless him for the bestest,
sweetest boy that lives—to—to—take him with
you."
She had risen and caught the young girl's
hand in her own, and bad fallen on her knees
beside her.
"I've money plenty, aid it's all yours and his.

me ! You will take my boy ? Do not put your
face from me: I know it ought not look on
such as me. Miss Mary !--my God, be meret
ful !=she is leaving me!'" .
Mary had risen, and, in the gathering
twilight, had felt her way to the open window.
She stood there, leaning against the easement,
her eyes fixed on the last rosy tints that were
fading from the western sky. There was still
some of its light on her pure young forehead,
on her white collar, on her clasped white
hands, but all fading slowly away.. The sup-
pliant haftdragged herself, still on ber knees, ,
beside Ler.
"I know it takes time to consider. I will
wait here all night,; but I cannot go until you
speak: Do not deny me now.- You will
see it in your sweet face a face asl have
seen in my dreams. I see it in your eyes, Mist+
Mary !—you will take my boy !"
The last red beam crept higher, suffused
Miss Mary's eyes with something of its glory,
flickered, and faded; and went out. The sun
bad set on Red Gulch. In the twilight silence
Miss Mary's voice sounded pleasantly.
willtake the boy. Send him to me to
nig,ht."
The happy mother raised the hem of
Miss Mary's skirts to her lips. She
would 'have buried, her hot face in its
'virgin folds—but she dared not. She rose to
MEM
"Does—this man—know Eaf your intention?"
asked Mary, suddenly.
"No—nor cares. He has never even • seen
the child to knoiv it."
"Go to him at " once—to-night—how ! Tell
him what you have done. Tell him I have
taken his child, and tell him—he must never
see—see—the child again. Wherever it may
he, he must not come; wherever I may take
•it be must not follow! There, go now, .please
—l'm weary, and—and have much yet to do!"
They walked together to the door. On the
threshold, the woman turned—
" Good night." •
She would have fallen at Miss Mary's feet.
But at the same moment the young girl reached
out her arms, caught the sinful woman to her
own pure breast for one brief moment, and
then dosed and locked the door.
It was with a sudden sense of great respon
sibility that Profane Bill took the reins of the
Slunigullion Stage the next morning, for the
school mistress was one of his passengers. As
he entered the high-road, in obedience to a
'pleasant voice from the "inside," he suddenly
reined up his horses and respectfully waited, as
"Tommy" hopped out, at the command of
Miss Mary.
"Not that bush, Tommy—the next."
Tonimv whipped out his new pocket knife,
and, cutting a„ branch from a tall azalea bush,
returned wi_h it to Miss Mary.
"All right now `1"
" All right."
And the stage door closed on the, Idyl of Red
Gulch.

Hair Vigor,
For the Renovation of the Hair.
The Great Desideratum of the Age.
A. dressing which
is at once agreeable.;
healthy, and effectual
for preserving the
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color
and the gloss and
freshness of , youth.
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair checked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where the follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use;will . prevent the hair
from , turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and
injurious to the hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing, else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
longer on the hair, giving it a rich
glossy, lustre and a grateful perfume.
