"Auntie, I 8?c." j
"ioyou? Run off for your bonnet,
then."
Away I went. I was Foaie time dress

two admirers while I donned toy walLiug

' Carrol Vaughn was a handsome man,

No words can expws the difference
with which he treated both my aunt and
uiyseit, and the loving devotion he had
expressed in speaking of hid widowed
mother and bktcrs, had often brought
lean- to my eyes. I knew that he was
poor; but I thought him talantcd, capa
Lie of nt.kicg his mark iu the world,
ire re the melius of stalling fairly within
his power. This was my mwt ardent
lover Then aud here i fell my cheeks
burn, though I was alone I thought of
John ilyerii. His honest, frauk face was
only tavel from positive ugliness by the
most brilliant pair of large, black eyes,
aud his figure amply atoned for his lack
of beauty in Lis features. It was tall
and finally formed, end his cariiage was
cr.ct and manly. Reserved and almost
fctisS. ii in hi rnanncre, ho had never j
spoktn a word of love ; but there was a
Rfiftncss in his tone, and flu.-h on his brow
when he spoke to me, that told the tale
without uced of spoken word. Other
niisht peek the jiolden treasure mj father's
will left we; but if John ' Mvtrs bfo'sa
j ever of love to Die, I felt sure no ordid
hope of winaing au heircd would proaipt

ever made of this description was only
10 feet long, the firm iu New York
thought there must bs some error in tho
order, and wrote to that effect to the par

thj owners ha determined that it would
be moe appropriate and valuable to the
State to have our lumber interests repre
sented at Washington. With this view
they intend donating one of the p!ank3
to either the agricultural department or
the Smithsonian Institute at Waseington,
where hundreds of thousands of visitors
can see it every year; and the other may
be exhibited at the world's fair in 1SC7,
to be afterward donated to the BrittL-h

The nsotives which induce different
people to go to church on Sunday, arc
verv diverse ; and in any particular caso
rather difficult to determine. Ia the
words of a pfctie correspondent, some go
to spend an hour ef idle time, some to
hear the new organ, and some to criticise
the preacher. Some po to show their
bonnets, some to fee their friends, some
to flirt. "Some go to gossip with their
novhbors, and pome as a respite front
their labors. Some go from an inward
s-nse of dniy, and pome from an cutward
sense of beauty. Some go to church be
rw they're made to, and some go there
becanse they're 'fraid to (do otherwise,
we snppose.) So3-e go to nin,", some go
to bleep, some go to K'!e, and fonie to
