"And how is your honor to know with

"Oh, an affectionate woman cannot

really in love."

Nearer than Ai-dreamt .
Can they catch the gleam
Of our stuilta. and hear the words we speak?
And see our deeds ?
And, looking deeper than our 0p.% may seek?
Our needs?
Do they minghLin our,gladness
Do Amy grieve
Whim of good ire leave'?
Do they know thought and hope,
White we in shadow grope?
Can they hear the Future's high
Yet hick the power
To lead us to our ills or to attest
The hour
Whentthey find hojired with sorrow
' '
Or when earth passed by
For them do they forget
The cores that here beet

MINNY'S FALL.
"TRUTH AND RIGHT : GOD AND OUR COUNTRY."
MONTROSE, PA., WEDNESDAY, AUG. 27, 1873.
"I am afraid 60 too, if he waits for you I
to betray your preference."
"Nonsense, Helen; he has never given
; ma any reason."
"Of emits° not. Has he not just said i
that he would never tell his lure until
quite sure of a return. It is the only
unmanly thing I ever heard him say.'
"You are very severe, Helen."
"Because he is such a dear, good fellow
'hat I do not like to have him betray so
much vanity, for that is at the bottom of
it, you know, Minny. I wish something
dreadful would happen to you, deur."
"Well, really, I am very much obliged
to you. Shall I break my neck for your
especial gratification ? Would you like
to have me jump out of the window, or
into the lake ?"
"Nn, but I want you to frighten him
in some way. I- would be such fun to
make him speak."
-Oh, Helm I should be ashamed."
'Tallow! I'll tell you how to manage
it. Jlake your horse run away, and then
pretend that you are terrible hurt.'
"I won't do anything of the kind, I
hate such thinga' r
"Min's to know Y I never Allan tell,

itt down to wait . the denouncement of

however, as the moments passed without
either Charles or Minny nicking their ap•

amazement and chagrin, she saw the lat
ter dragging herself slowly up the hill
upon which the house was situated. She
ran out at once to meet her, her spirits
sinking lower and lower as she caught
the expression of the young girl's face.
"What is the matter ?" she cried;
makes you look so —"
"Mad? Yes," exclaimed Hinny, pet
tishly; "that is just the way I fed. I
have made a fool of myself, and hurt my
ankle into the bargain, and there's the
end of your interesting scheme, Miss
Rodney. lam so mad, 80—"
"Oh, Minny, don't be angry with me, I
am so sorry. But let me help you, and
tell me how it all happened. Didn't you
see Charles ? lie flew off as if he had
been shot."
"Ile's a brute, Helen, I bate him. I

"Why, you poor child, do tell me all
about it."
"Just wait Until I reach my room, and
can lie down,then I will tell you the whole
charming story ; but I shall go home just
as soon us my foot is welt enough, and 1
never will speak again as long as I live,
Never !"
So Helen assisted her to her chamber
and examined the injured ankle, which
was r indeed much bruised and swollen ;
butiier cant soon appearing to offer her
kintlly aid, the fretful expression passed
from the young girl's face, and she re
warded their efforts to make her comfort
able with her usual sweet and sunny
smile. Poor Helen, in the meantime,was
dying with impatience to hear the storyi
and as soon as the tm o girls were alone
she exclaimed:
"Now, darling, tell me all about it."
"Why, Helen, I played my part like a
bungler,
as I knew I should. The horse
sprang forward just as I prepared to
jump, and I fell with my ankle under me
upon a stone. I was thankqd enough to
get back and pretend insensibility. But
when Mr. Forsyth reached the place, and
taking me in his arms, called me his
sweet Ninny, some exasperating spirit
took possession of me, and I laughed in
hit face like an idiot."
"Oh, Ninny, what made you ?"
"I don't know, I tell yon; it was just
like me. I always knew I hadn't any
sense."
"Why, he dropped me, the mean fel
low, just as if I had been a log of wood.
I never will look at him again, never!

"But be did not know that you were
hart, of course, or he never would have
left you. even if he did suspect a trick.—
There he conies, vow, up the hill."
'•lndeed; low does the mighty gentle
man look ?"
'•Very black. Minn'', I must coufess,
but he will apologize, I know wheu he

now, and let you try to sleep."
"I shall not sleep, and I shell not ac
cept his apologia& I hate him and my
self, and—
"Not me, Minny, I hope. I thought I
should bring you two together, and we
should all be so glad; but good-by for
the present ;" and kissing the tired girl
she went to meet her cousin.
"Why, Charles." she began,ln reproach
ful tunes, 'how could you treat Minny us
you did? She hurt her foot very badly
and will be confined to her room, prob
ably. fur several dam"
*lturt, Helen' did you say that she was
hurt ?"
• - Of course I did, and yon left her so
strangely to crawl up hero all by herself.
She is very much offended, I store
yon."
"Why, Helen, she laughed in my face.
and I thought it was all a trick to make
a foul of me."
'-Girls generally laugh when they are
pleased."
"Don't he absurd, Ilelen ' • hut I did not
dream that he was hart.. Go and apolo
gize to her for me, that's a good girl, and
give her this rose with my sincere re
grets."
Helen did not wait for anything more,
but flew up to Ninny's room, to find her,
still awake and crying bitterly.
"Why. von poor little darling," she ex
claimed, "do not cry so, or I never shall
forgive myself. lint hero is a rose from
Charley,who feels us badly as von do. lie
asks your forgiveness iu the humblest
manner. Indeed. he almost pushed me
down in his eagerness, as if I were of no
consequence at all. He did not dream
that yon were hurt, for Minny," and here
she could not repress a girlish giggle, "he
thought you were making fun of him."
:dimly took the rose with a very forgiv
ing smile, notwithstanding her recent
protestations of unending hostility, and
Helm] went away feeling quite sore that
asleep would soon conic now to refresh
nod strengthen her. She wasconfined to
her room, however, for several days, dur
ing which Charles chafed and fret ted,and
scarcely tried to hide his impatience for
reappearance.
Charley, what is the matter?" Helen
asked one day. 6-I believe you are in love
;it last—hitt who Can it be?' I should
suspect our patient np stairs, only you
will have nothing to do with proud wom•
en. It must he a sweet, frank, itiri—"
“St, , p, Helen, stop—don't repeat my

—Yes, ft is," he replied. earnestly. "toil
I havu net the slightest idea whel,er she
cares for me or not. I have a great mind
to resort to stra'agem."
"Don't. don't, Charley," interrupted
!Icier. quickly.
"Why not. Ifelcn ?" he asked, looking
op in some surprise.
' Oh, because, hecanse—make her a
ffood, honest . , manly offer, and she will re
spect you a great deal more."
"But she muy refuse me, Helen—and I
could not (ndure—"
There she comes; now do as I tell
you."
And she ran out of one door as Minny
entered the other. It was hard to tell
which was the most embarrassed of the
two—but as Minny's steps seemed very un
certain (owing to her lameness,of course,)
Charles put his arm around her, and for
the nest ten minutes, he hardly knew
what he said or did, until 31 inny, smiling
up at him through her tears,whispered—
"Now indeed, I am proud." Then with
many little blushes,she told him all about
his cousin's little plot,fearing greatly that
he would be disgusted, but he only laugh
ed, and said it had ended very happily.
00 YOU WORK WELL.
"Are von going to let that pass ?" said
one workman to another, a shade of sur
prise in his voice.
"Why not r was the answer. "It will
never be seen."
"Would yon buy the article,if yon knew
how it was made ?"
“No."
"Why not ?"
"Because it might give out in a year,
instead of lasting five years." .
"And are you going to let the job pass,
when von know that whoever buys it will
be cheated ?" said the fellow work
man. .
"Oh, you're more nice than wise," ; re
turned the other, with a togs of his head.
"You draw things too tine."
"Suppose Mr. Gray, down at the store,
were to sell you Muff fur pants that he

"Perhaps I would."

The other journeyman timed away
from his monitOr, looked half offended
and bunt over his workbench. At first,
he went on finishing his job; but after
awhile his fellow-workman saw him take
out a defective piece of wood, and then
remove another whic:i had not been'-prop
erly squared and jointed. Observing
him atill,he saw him detach a piece which
had simply been driven into place, and
which gave no real strength. and after
selecting another, three or four inches
longer, set it by mortice and tenon firmly
into the article which he was making.
All this was done at an expenditure of
time no•, exceeding an hour and a half.
"There," said he in a tone of satisfac
tion, speaking to his fellow workman.—
"If that dosen't last forever, it will be no
fault of mine."
"A good and honest job," remarked the
"Awever was made."
"And you feil better about it than you
would have done had it left vony hands to

"Yeti, I do." The answer clinic frank

Oh, not over an hour or two."
"And the thing is worth ten dollars

Oh, as to that. I don't profess to ho a
Christain man," said the other. "1 am no
hypocrite."
"A, Christain profesiion is one thing.
and a Christain life another," answered
the fellow-workman. "All proferssi vs are
not Christaios. Religion is a thing of

he isn't honest in his earnings. 11e must

"A new kind of religion that," remark

"As old as - Cbrist'anity," said.tbe oth

The Celebrated Judge Lynch.
Mr. Bartholontew Lynch, who presides
over Kellogg's Fourth District Court,
New Orleans, and has won such unenvia
ble notoriety, in the trial of the Picayune
libel case, is a son of old Erin,and speaks
Enalish with a broad brogue.
'there is a humorous as well as an iras
cible phase to Mr. Lynch's character. It
is related of him that not, long since a
lawyer—who is also a sun of the Green
Isle—was arguing a somewhat tedious
case before him, when Lynch having sat
istied himself as to the merits of the case,
and dreading a lengthy speech, said quite
abruptly to the voluble attorney, whom
we shall name Hagan :
"Mr. Hagan, sit down sir I"
The attorney, with a coolness that, was
refreshing,paid not the slightest attention
to the command, and proceeded with his
argument.
"Mr. Hagan," said Lynch, rather more
pointedly, -take your seat sir !"
The lawyer scarcely noticed the inter
ruption, but plunged ahead as vigorously
as ever.
Lynch was now excited, and turning to
the Sheriff exclaimed :
"Mr. Sheriff, sate Mr. Hagan I"
The Sheriff hesitated a moment to see
if his superior was in earnest, when sud
denly the irate magistrate, with an at
tempt to smother his wrath that was a
palpable tenure, exclaimed, "Mr. Hagan,
go on thin 1" and after whispering some
thing to the clerk. he relepstA into a lis
tening attitude, remaining, perfectly quiet
for sumo hour and a half, ut which time
the lawyer having eximuited the subject,
and being quite exhausted himself, sunk
into a chair and saturated an extensive
pocket handkerchief with tee perspira
tion that beaded his legal brow.
Lynch raised himself slowly in his
chair. and inquired very midly, "Are you
through Mr. Hagan ?"
"Yes, sir."
#•Are you sure your'e through ?"
"Yes, sir, quite sure."
"Welt, sir,' remarked Lynch,:"yonr ar
gument has had no more effect ripen. the
Court than a spoonful of water. on the
back of a duck. There's been judgment
entered against ye for an hour and more."

Tretherick,
BY B BET • HAUTE
In 1858 Fuldletown considered bee a
very pretty woman, She had a quantity
of light chestniat hair, a good figure, a l
dazzling complexion and a certain lan
guid grace which passed easily for gentle- '
womanliness. She always dressed becom
ingly, and in what Fiddletown accepted
as the latest faohion. She had only two
blemishes—one of her velvety eyes, when
examined closely, had a slight cast; and
her left cheek bore a eMall sear left by a
single drop of vitriol—happily the only.
drop of an entire phial thrown upon her
by one of her own jealous sex that reach
ed the pretty face it was intended to mar.
But when the observer had studied tile
eyes sufficiently to notice this defect he
was generally incapacitated for criticism,
and even the 'canon her cheek was
thoughtby some to add piquancy to her
smile. The youtlifnl editor of the Fiddle
town Avalanche had said privatelythat it
was - "an exaggerated dimple." Colonel
Starbottle was instantly "reminded of the
beautifying patches of the days of Queen
Anne, but more particularly, sir, of the
blankest beautiful woman,that,bfankyou,

And this Woman he'd a scar—a • line ex
tending, blank me. from her eves to her
blank chid, And this woman, air, thrilled
you, air, maddened you, air, absolutely
sent your blank soul to pertition with her
blank fascinations.; And one day I said
to her, 'Celeste, how• in blank did yon
come by that beautiful scar, blank. yon ?"
And she said to me; 'Star, there isn't
another white man that I'd confide in but
you, but I made that scar myself, pm -
posely, I did. blank me.' These were her
very words, sir, and. perhaps you think it
a blank lie, sir, but Lll pat up any blank
sum you can name and prove it, blank
me.
Indeed, most of the male populat:on
of Fiddietown were or had been in love
with her. Of this number about one-halt
believed that their love was retured, with
the exception; possibly, of her own hus
band. He alone had been known to ex
press skepticism.
The name of the gentleman who en
joyed this infelicitous distinction was
rretherick. He had been divorced from
an excellent wife to marry this Fiddle
town enchantress. She also had been
divorced, bat it was hinted that some preT
vions experiences of hers in that legal ,
formality has made it perhaps less novel
and probably less sacrificial. I would
not have it inferred from this that she
was deficient in sentiment or devoid-, of
its highest moral expression. Her inti
mate friend had written (on the,necasime
of her second divorcv) "The cold;worla
does not understand - oam yet," and Col
onel Starbottle had remarked, blandly,
that with the exception of a single wo.
mim in Opelousas pariah, -Lonisana, -.she
had more soul than the whole caboOle
of them , put together. Few . indeed `Cenld
