Uncle abed's' Visit.
It would have required no very, power
-1 stretch of Inagiaation for Mrs. Am,
er's guests=to have fancied themselves
mid the light and fragrance of some
opic isle on thalfbatal night. The state
balustrades-were wreathed with deeply
'nted blossetna, Vie air' was freighted
• ith the perfonie of ihenotrprie; and tabe
ose, and the 'chandeliers that_ hang from
he frescoed ceiling; like coronals of quiv
.ring fire, threw a noonday brilliance over
he crowd.
At the further end of the superb draw
ng room stood Mrs. Amber herself— a
.lately matron in saphire velvet, illumine
ed by the pale glimmer of pearls. No
sue would ever have imagined from the
.miling self possession - of her manner that
his night was the crisis of her life:
Through all the hum and murmur of
he aristocratic assemblage—through all
he crash of arriving carriages, and the
tormy melody of the band beyond, Mrs.
tubers quick ear caught one low, beaks
ing step on the threshold. It was her
usband's. She beckoned to him with
er jewelled fan, and whispered in scarce
y audible voice.
Well ?"
"Just as I expected. We are ruined,
can't keep above water a week. Norris
has failed and we shall follow suit !"
" A week," muamured Mrs. Amber
thoughtfully, " a week !" One can ac
complish a good deal in a week. " Have
you noticed how attentive Young Gold is
to Cecilia ?" she added musingly.
"He won't be after—"
"Hush !" Mrs. Amber exclaimed with
a'quick glance,around, as if apprehensive
that the very walls would hear their whis
pered colloquy. "If she wins a rich hus
band before the world learns of your dis
tress, we shall be tolerably safe. For
your own sake keep a cheerful face; min
gle with our guests—throw off that per
turbed frown. I tell you all will be right."
Mr. Amber shrugged his shoulders and
whistled halt a bar of some popular strain,
then turning away to obey his wife's be
hests to the best of his ability, while Mrs.
Amber, her smooth lips all wreathed in
dulcet smiles, resumed the task of receiv
ing her gay friends.
Suddenly there was r sort of thrill and
o f through the apartment—the crowd
pr°do if to make way for somebody,
tionistß,imber came forward expecting
tray the.7le distinguished arrival.
"

A rs

n,zilt, but I see you don't keep New
ampshire habits. Hain't forgotten me
are you ? Why, I'm your Uncle Obeli
Jeekens !"
Mrs. Amber turnei pale through all
her artificial bloom at the unexpected ad-
dition to her company that stood before
her, his honest features beaming with de
light. It was a ruddy faced old man, in a
suit of butternut colored cloth, carrying
in one hand a neatly tied handkerchief,
containing his wardrobe, and in the other
a crooked walking stick,full of knots and
gnarls—such a stick as, grows only in
dense swamps, where the young saplings
have to twist their little, arms in every di
rection to get a bit of sunshine, and grow
up in the most unheard of shapes.
"I declare," pursued Uncle Obed,
"you're fine as a fiddle, 111dy—and
wher's thentlittle gals you sent up sum
mer before last, to get red cheeks at their
uncle's ? Grown up to be young ladies—
well, if I ain't beaten"
And Uncle Obed extended ebony band
to Miss Cecillia, who drew back and put
up a gold mounted eye glass with an air
of well bred astonishment.
" I nevetheard that , anythingg, ailed Ce
cilly's eyesight, Tildy," said 'Uncle Obed
in extreme perplexity. "And that young
feller in the yellar waistcoat is her beau,
I suppose ? Well, young folks will be
young folks, and we old one's hadn't
ought to interfere. That's what I always
said when you and Jim Amber used to
walk.in the old side hill orchard, after
yon'd done the milking."
This unlucky allusion brimmed the al
ready overflowing veins of Mrs. Amber's
wrath—she drew her gloved hand from
the old man's cordial grasp, with an ener
gy which puzzled him, and spoke with
compressed lips :
" I am really sorry,. sir, that we were
not previensly -m-ade-awarti - "that you pro
posed honoring us with a visit. In that
case we could luveprepared onrselvesfor
the pleasure; , now, - .1 regret to say, it will
be inconvenient to receive, yon."
"What ?" ejaculated the astonished
old man, who, was unceriat *tether or

only niece—the_ girl whom - he bad brOught

charge of the penniless orphan.
Mrs: Amber repeated the frigid sten
tenee *with Au emphasis.,which only a
heartless woman of MOM On give.
" This is a big bonse, Tildy," said-the
old man in slightly trenitdOns
"and j.,should tholeit..there. was a

Uncle Obed' was wishing himself well
out of the heartless scene, when suddenly
a pair of plump little arms were thrown
around his neck, and a cheek fresher and
pinker than a damask rose was pressed to
his brown face. It was .Mrs. Amber's
youngest daugh4r—his own niece—the
incorrigible romp,who had climbed cherry
trees and stolen bird's nests innumerable
in the meadows of the old homestead,
two or three years ago. And there she
was—a young lady in pink silk and cameo
bracelets :
".Dear Uncle Obed, I have only just
heard of your arrival. lam glad. to see
yon i£ no one else is
And another shower of kisses succeed
ed, greatly to the discomfiture and envy
of the young man who had escorted Miss
Amber to the spot, and stood surveying
the pretty little tableau.
" Go about your business, Harry !" she
exclaimed gaily," Pve got ever so much
to say to Uncle Obed I"
And Hafry Latimer obeyed, but rather
ungraciously.
"Just the same little Fanny as ever I"
exclaimed the old man, patting the curls
with delighted fondness. " You haven't
changed, though Tildy, has !"
" No; and I will never change for you,
Uncle Obed," said the girl. " I haven't
forgotten how kind you were to me, up at
the old homestead, how you shielded my
transgressions, concealed my faults, and
always had a smile for naughty little Fa
nny.,,
And she chatted on, entirely unheeding
her mother's frown of displeasure. Fan
ny had always been the least manageable
of Mrs. Amber's daughters, and the wor
thy matron secretly resolved to lecture
the young lady at her leisure.
Uncle Obed was by no means deficient
in observantiou, and while he related the
changes which three years bad wrought
in the vicinity of the old homestead, he
[ perceived the rosy blood mount to his nie
, ce's cheek every time Mr. Latimer pass
ed.
"Now little girl," said-he," who's that
young fellow there by the window ?"
Fanny looked up and then down, play
ed with the middle button of Uncle Obed's
coat and answered very softly :
" Mr. Latimer,"
" Humph! I suppose that isn't all you
can tell me about him P"
There was a minute's hesitation and
then Fanny hid her cheek on the old
man's shoulder and told Uncle Obed all.
" Then why on earth don't you marry
him!" ejaculated the old gentleman, at
the close of the little romance.
" Ile's only a poor lawyer," sighed
Fanny, " and papa will never consent.
But one thing I am resolved on," she ad
ded with sparkling eyes, " I will not mar
any one else, least of all that odious Col.
Woodall, not if he were worth twenty
times twenty thousand dollars. ni mar
ry the one I can love—not for money."
The stamp of her fair foot gave empha
sis to the determined words as she spoke.
Fanny was very much in earnest, and if
Colonel Woodall had happened to be
present, he would have concluded that his
chances were to say the least of it rather
"Twenty thousand dollars, eb ?" slow
ly repeated Uncle Obed. '- Well, Fanny,
it is a hard world we live in- -ahard gri
ping, grinding world. I never thought
so afore, but somehow to night has borne
it upon me."
When Uncle Obed went away next
day he was comparatively cheerful. The
kind words and'loving suaileaoflittleFan
ny had fallen like drops of balm upon the
sore spot in his heart.
There it was nestling in the hillside, ther
gray old farm house, with giant syca
mores tossing their silvery branches abcrve l
it and the lilac bushes nodding before the
narrow windows. Uncle Obed thought
it never looked so pleasant as now, in the
level gold of sunset with the purple
woods rising against the bright far off
horizon.
But he did not stop in the cozy room
where the eight day clock ticked away
as peacefully as if its master bad not been
absent two whole days---a thing which
hadn't happened before in a half a centu•
ry; be went straight up stairs, to a tiny
nook under the eaves, where he kept an
old sort of trunk, curiously Scented with
camphor,and bound together with strong
clasps and rivets of brass. From this re
ceptacle he took a bit of paper, and held
it-so the light fell on its contents.
A‘Twertly thousand," -he muttered.—

so ineligible a fair one as Miss Cecilia.—
Colonel Woodall had also shown unequiv
ocal signs of withdrawingliu'l suit, not at
all to Miss Fanny's displeasure. In short
everything seer* to be going wrong,
and the only satisfied members of the
confederation were Harry Latimer and
Miss Fanny.
It was a gloomy morning of rain and
tempest, and Mrs. Amber sat in a sort of
slovenly dishabille, inn narrow room in
one of our third rate hotels.
Her own stately house had fallen a prey
to greedy creditors some time since. Mr.
Amber at an ..-hpposite A:slither was open
ing and glancing at his letters.
" Hallo !" he, suddenly exclaimed, drop
ping one and catching-it up again play
fully.
" How you do agitate, one's nerves !"
groaned Mrs. Amber.
Hang your nerves, here's something to
set them in a flutter—a letter trom a New
England laWyer announcing that your
uncle Obed Jenkins has made Miss Fanny
Amber a present of twenty thousand dol
lars, to become her property on the day
she marries Harry Latimer."
"Twenty thousand dollars," shrieked
I Mrs. Amber and Cecilia in chorus, " end
nothing for vsl"
"Twenty thousand dollars," murmur
ed Fanny with a crimson spot on her
cheek ; " Oh, how happy we shall be.—
Dear, kind Uncle Obed I"
" You're a nice manager," snarled Mr.
Amber, turning sharply to his wife. It
was for this, was it, that you treated Mr.
,Jenkins so rudely on the night ,of your
last party ?"
" I didn't know—l didn't suppose"—
sobbed Mrs. Amber. "He never told me
he had any property."
I "Of course not!" ejaculated Mr. ':Arn
' ber. " It's enough to make a man rave
to haye such an - idiot as you fora wife.—
Twenty thousand dollars would have
I been everything to me, just now, when
there is such a scarcity of ready money in
i the market. And what's worse, the sum
is so tied up that no ono but Fanny can
touch a cent of it."
Mr. Amber strode out of the room,giv
ing the door a very energetic slam, and
Mrs. Amber went gracefully into hyster
ics, while Fanny sat loooking at the let
ter which bad been a messenger of so
much happiness to .her, with ; scarlet lips
half apart and the light of deep gratitude
in her eyes. . ' • "

ed. " Will, he pot think it a blessed

When upon Fanny's wading day, the
deed which constitated her a small heir
ess was deliirered into her hand, it was
inclosed in a narrow strip of
_coarse blue
paper, which the Old Mancommonly used
in his correspondence. Upon this was
written one single line, and tears suffused
the fair young bride's eyes as she read the
words—" In memory of Uncle Obed's
visit."

The Next Goverior.
Our candidate for Governor will be
nominated on the sth of March, and it is
hoped that the friends of the White Race
will embrace every occasion to consult to
gether and devise the best means of con
ducting au earnest and thorough canvass
for Governor, Congressman, Sce. Clubs
should be formed in every town, meetings
held, newspapers and documents circula

old form of government, and establish an

The President and Negro Suffrage.
On the 7th a delegation of the kinky
haired members of the Black republican
lobby branch of Congress called upon the
President to tune him up to the measures
of the party to enforce negro equality.
lie received, and treated them kindly,
in spite of Douglass' impudence, and the
result may be understood from the news
paper despatches. Says the AGE:
"The most noticeable event of yesterday
was the conversation between the Presi
dent and Fred. Douglass and a colored
delegetiou, in reference to which it is suf
ficient to state that the Executive informed
them emphatically that helis opposed to
negro suffrage in any shape ; that it wo'd
lead to a war between the races, most
destructive in its results. The delegation
came off.entirely disappointed, and their
friends in both Houses are equally indig
nant at the final and candid statement of
the Exicutive. The question of negro
suffrageby Congressional action anywhere
may therefore be considered settled, so
far as the President can do it. The con
servative men are in fine spirits over the
result. Day is beginning to break at last.
The long night of darkness is rapidly dis
appearing, and the country has cause for
congratulation in having such a President.
The Inquirer, negro organ, with:
"The conversation between the Presi
dent and the colored delegation, is consid
ered by them as qpnclusive upon the ques
tion of the President's intentions upon the
bill granting suffrage to the colored peo
ple of the District, they believing that he
will VETO ANY BILL that comes to
him upon the subject. The subject still
slumbers in the Senate, but it is certain
to take it up at no distant day, and pass
it, whether by a two-thirds vote or not is
still a matter of doubt."
Although the President had listened to
two speeches from them, made a lengthy
reply, and submitted to several interrup
tions and contradictions from the impu
dent Douglass, they insisted upon keeping
up a controversy with him, until he was
compelled to decline spending any further
time with them; and they then withdrew
and published a manifesto, the ill-temper
of which may be seen in an extract :
"Believing as we do that the views and
opinions you expressed in that address
are entirely unsound, and prejudicial to
the highest interests of our race, as well
as our country at large, we cannot do
other than expose the same, and, as far as
maybe in our power, arrest their danger
ous influence. It is not necessary, at the
present time, to call attention to more
than two or three features of your remar
kable address."
Ear One more amendment remains to
be adopted by the Black republicans—to
amend the White House at Washington
by abolishing the 'word " white," and put
a negro into it—which they may do when
they get rid of "that man at the other
end of the avenue," (as Thad Stevens
calls that "foreigner," Andy Johnson)
who threatens to veto the negro suffrage
bill.

Republican Consistency.
The Governor; in his message talks
about reducing State taxation; so does the
State Treasurer; so do the shoddy mem
bers of the Legislature; so do the shoddy
organs of the State; and yet the shoddy
majority in the Legislature go right
ahead to passs bills for doubling the sala
ries of public officers and for increasing
the annual public expenditures beyond
that. of any previous period. The salary
of the assistant librarian has already been
raisedby the Senate from esoo to $900;
and a bill has been offered for the doub
ling of the salaries of the Governor, Audi
tor, Surveyor and. Attorney Generals, be
sides a heavy increase -in the salaries of
hundreds of other State officials. Shod
dy practice and precept are about as far
asunder as the poles.
