I think I nm sale in.sain that Paul Stanton! hated mo lro:n the time we were little boys alscln ol together, up to 0o peri od id which 1 am oii;' to lull you, I'ulort unatcly we hail nlwaja been in sotui! sense rivals. c were nearly ul too i-ntuc aire our tatei were somewhat Mini- ar our circumstances 'm life much alike, anil we wcru iti the same clashes, utiu stud ied the same books. rrobably it was more hec'iusp I applied mysell closer to my htudics than he did that I oiitsttipped I'hiiI, ami under all eircuni stances where svliolar-liip was concerned bore idr the palm. Naturally, be was quite is clevor as I was -a little more billhaut. indeed liut lie lacked iipjih.-aiion iuk; we all know that to become u scholar requires time and patience ami hard study, even il one h u genius in the lieginuiny. l'.inl bad one decided advantage over me. lie was handsome and giaeelul. and all the gills in the vicinity made him aware ul' it. He tftn self eonccited, naturally and the adulation lie received made him vain. No. thing makes a looi ot a man any more spee dily than to have the . wuiiicu to make too much of hiiu. 15 ay and gallant, and courteous, be wat to theui all but be coveted the love ol only one. i'lorcnee was a sweet little brunette ot two or three ami twenty, mid all the young men in town wore in love with her. She bil only lived in Mailoy two years. Her native plt'CC was Philadelphia, blither lather's health requiring a change ol nil' they bad come to Marley ami established themselves iu a pretty little cottage nut on the I'owiihI road. Florence was accomplished in no ordinary degr ami (die bad traveled a great deal, which is alter all the best way ot educating onffeM. Id Philadelphia she bad moved in the fust wiciety, but she did nut bold herself above taking part in our rustic merry mak ings and at the bu.-kings mid apple bees, and dances, the was the life of the whole company. To do Florence justicr, tdie encouraged none of her suitors ; was kind and cour teous nothing .nore. As lot uie, I bud been a beauty worship er always, and when 1 saw Florence Wuyiic I met tor the first time my ideal roiuan. My lii-art went from mo mid never came back agaiu. In my wildest dreams I had never imagined ever so faintly that such a glorious vision ever came upon me in dull, prosy old Murky, where nothing; ever did happen yeir in and year out. i bad bt-rn very little ot tbo world, and was shy and awkward, and the passion 1 b it (or beautiful Florence did not tend to make nie less embarrassed in her presence. The fact ol it wa, the sight of her confused uie to such r degree that I was always mak ing hi tell ridiculous before her, and if she Lad Dot been tbo kindest hearted girl iq existence, the would have iudulged in iua ny a hearty luugh at my espouse. i Once I suminpned up courag enough to invite her to ride with mo. bad fine a horse as there was in the country, and a good buggy, and might have enjoyed my. self if! had not been to awkward. Aft it wan, I had trod on Florence's dress, struck her bonnet with my el ow in getting into the carriage, switched the whip into her face, and did a score of other things which I would have died to prevent. She made me so terribly conscious that I hnd hands and Icetthat must be disposed of some way, and how this disposition was to be accomplished was the question. Paul Stanford loved Florence also, but bis love did not make a fool of htm as mine did of me. lie was alwnja just so polisfi. cd and brilliant, and could say his wittiest il ings vith the dark eye of Florence lull upon him just as well a if she bail been a thousand miles off. Oh, bo I envied him his easy, quiet nonchalance, and how dialed and irritated I was by the patroniz ing air be assumed towards me. Hut at last fate gave me a chance to dn Florence a service- - to prove to her that I was not a coward, though 1 might bo an awkward clodhopper. Marley was n seacoast town, and it was to avail himself of sea air and bnthinu that Mr. Wayne bail rcnmvpd thither.- Almot every tine day he and Florence were down on Point Pleasant beach Mr. Wayne bathing, and Florence reading to and Watb. iug li i in. The attachment between this father and daughter was- very strong possibly be cause Mrs. Wayne had tried bard to be both lather and mother to bis girl. Sometimes when I could get un ?nlB eient courage to do so. I would go down to he point ami join them, but these occasions were rare, because I could not make sure that Florence wanted me to disturb them often. True, she always smiled, and nni'le room fur me on the rock where Mie found n scat, but she did not smile much, and she had a way ol looking out to sea wb'eb made mo fancy she was dreaming; dreams in which I could have tin part. Stanford was tint so particular. TTc was down at the Point almost every day when the Waynes were there, and the smell ot his cigar and his light lu-.'h floated land ward together on tbo sea bicezc. It was in .Inly that the manufacturing company in which nil niv property, was in Vested, failed and left me very npnrly pen iiiless It was plain that I must go to -work, and 1 Was eimragenus enonrh to be willing to tak'j bold of anything which oftVred.- liut the times were dull, work men plenty, and work scarce, and in spite of all mv ef lolls, nothing presented itself for me to Ho. 1 was gloomy aud down hearted for the most part, and everything looked cheerless and apprehensive. In this mood, one gray September day, I strolled tbiwii to the Point. I had not expected any one would be there, but as I turned an angls of the path, I saw Florence in a waterproof cloak and hood, in her old seat ; ami 1 caught out in the surf the gleam of Wayne's red bathing suit. Mr. Mven as I gazed, and before I bad spok en to her, a sharp cry broke from Florence, aud saw with dismay that Mr. Wayne had got beyond bis depth, and not being able to s.vim the undcrtide which was very strong at that point, was sucking him under in spite ol bis determined efforts to resist it. Tn a moment I was buffeting the waves, ami though I mil a strong man and an ex tra ;ood swimniei, I must confess that more than once 1 was on the eve of giving over aud letting late dispose of both myself and the helpless burden with which I was try ing to reach the shore. Hut. the sight ot Florence standing on the sands, her face white as death her arms extended towards us.gavc me strength, and by anu by, mure dead than alive, T succuded in laying the old man at his daughter's feet' And 1 would have risked my life over and over again foi tbo sake of heating her say again as she did then ' William Morton, may Heaven ever bless jou 1' Vou have saved ull I have to love I " Paul Stanford was on the spot almost immediately very much out of breath and very profuse in his protestations of sympathy- He bad witnessed the danger of Mr. Wayne from Oolney'a Hill, a quar ter of a mile away, and had come with all baste, but too late to be of any material as. sistaiipe. He hoped, however, that Miss Wayne would not refuse him the pleasure of supporting her father to the cottage. And so by his superior tact and address he managed to secure for himself what I was dying to ask for, the privilege of ac companying t hem home. Hut Wayne remembered with gratitude the servicit 1 bad done him. Thrco day afterward I received a letter from the President of (he Shore Pine and Point Pleasant Railroad, saying that I could have the situation ol station agent and signal ten der at Paehly 8 15ndge. J he salary was a liberal one considering the duties to be performed, and I was indebted for the offer of the si'uulion to Mr. Wayne, who was a personal friend of the President. Of course I asecpted the position. I was in need of employment, and this place would pay mo a better Fulary than I could hope to earn anywhere else by manual laboi' alone. .It was a trust of responsibility, but I prided myself on my punctuality and in tegrity, aud had no fear in regard to being able to do my duty. The management of the switches came under my supervision, and also to the or. dering of the " draw" which bad been fix ed in tac bridge tj allow vessels to pass through. Jty day we used balls as signals, nd jif 4jie "draw was open two .green balls wer -hoisteu from the staudard a few rods below the draw. If it was closed and ail was right, two red balls signified the fact to tne enginocrs. liy night red and green lanterns were substituted for the balls. For two months everything weut like clockwork, t had an efficient assistant, who kuew " ull the ropes." I saw Florence not unf.'equently she often went to the city and always came into the offioe tor her ticket. Once when the carriage did not come for her from tbo cottage, 1 drove her home in my buggy, and had the felicity of holding her soft hand a moment in mine as 1 lifted her out. From the time I took posession of the railway station. Paul Stanford had begun to mauilcst a S)rt of friendship for me. I had strong suspicions that it was assumed, though it seemed real enough. And in deed what particular object he could have in feigning a friendship for me which lie did not feelf I was at a loss to imagine, I received his advances with a coldness which would have repulsed most moo, but it seemed to have no effect on him. He smoked his cigars in my private room, and read his' papers there, and talked to me i a gonial, off-hand way so thoroughly trieu Jly that at times I was ashamed of my self and my suspicions. Thinking it over now, I know that by "hook or by crook" he managed to worm out of me all the secrets of my business if indeed they might be called secrets; but at that tune I did not take notice of his in quiries, so gradually were they put. Meanwhile, I gained the .confidence of t' e company was truste 1 with large 3u:ns of money, and was generally thought well of. Mr. Wayne iuvited tue to dine at his house, and Florence sang and played for me, ami I would have been perlectlv happy if Stanford had not made his np ptarauec aud beguiled Florence away Irom my side. One dark, fnggv niahf I remember it was Fliday, and it was in March just as the clock poiuted to teu the hour when the llallidon Express was due I beard whistles ol a steamboat, three sharp whistles and one u signal that the draw uiust be opened. I seized the green lantern and out. Stit son was already there, lor he bad been set tling tho switches and hanging up the all right signal. "Hase her down, Stitsnn," said T and we took the rod lantern down aud hooked on the greor. one in its place. "It's cussed inconvenient having this steamer cotuu jest at this time," growled Stifson : "won't old (Jiles" relering to the driver of the express won't he -swear at behig stopped?" He opened the driw, and just as he did so I heard the whistle of the approaching train. Iut there was no time to notice it we were fully occupied with getting the steamer tlnough. liy some mismanage on board of her, she loiled, and had to be backed, which took up time, and glancing up 1 saw with horror that instead ot the green lantern 1 had hung from the standard a moment ago, the red Innteru was filing out like the eye of doom ! "C5reat Heaven !" cried Stitson, follow ing my glance "the red light is up and the train will go lo ruin, and the company'll Bend in alter em to-morrow !" Like lightning shot through my brain with fearful rapidity the thought of the switch! If I could only reach it iu time I could send the train up tho steep grade of' the wood track, and before they reached the cud of it, the engineer would be able to stop. I flew over the rough ground and laid my baud on the iron rod of the switch. 1 had the key iu my pocket, I turned it quickly and flung back the lever ! Aud himultatiiously a hand grasped my throat and a voice 1 knew well hissed in my ear : "You mean to thwf rt me ! but by Heav. cu, 1 will kill you first !" grappled with him, aud wo fell to the ground together And the fierce thunder of the on-coming train drowned all sound and sense! A hot sulphurous breath of ilauie and smoke swept over mo. I felt the gripe of my throat relaxing then there fell a period of compuritivc silence and coolness, and ever so dimly I realized that the traiu bad run ou to the wood truck utid had stopped. j 1 put out my hand to touch the head of Paul Stanlord be, who had sought mv life but great Heaven I There was no bead on his body ! My fingers were clotted with tomelliing warm and sticky and overcome by tht tenihlc revelation it made to uiu I lost cousciuusoess. When I came to myself, I was lying on a settee in the station, aud. a great crowd filled the rjom. 1 told my story by degrees- as I could remember it, and I could see that my list- ners liHlievca it. It was settled beyond doubt that Sauford had changed tho lights, be bad been seen to do it by one of the employees of the road, a stupid fellow, who did not think of any harm coming from it. Hi object was plain enough to me. though I never spoke ot it to any one. He hated me he was jealoue of my gaiuing popularity, and he wanted to ruin me in the estimation ot the company aud iu the estimation of Florence and her father. But he was dead, and whe n 1 thought of the fearful manner of his death, I forgave bun freely. 1 suppose you have guessed that I mar ried i loreoeo Wayne, and I need not tell you that I am happy.

A young man paying special attention to a young la dy, met with the following incident during one of his visits. Being invited in the parlor to wait tho lady's appearance, he entertained himself as best he might for some time, and wr. becoming very weary, when a little girl abont five vears old, slipped in and began lo converse with him. '1 can always tell when you are coining; to our house," she said. . "Why, when you aro going to be here, sister begins to sing and get good, gives tne cake and j ie, and ever) thing I want, and she sings so sweetly when you aie here, nnd when I speak to her she smiles so pleas, antly. I wish you would stay here all tho while then I would have a good time. Hut when you go off sister is not good. She gets mad. and if I ask her anything, she slaps and bangs mc abouf. .Moral.

A man living thirty miles from Chica go but not far enough to escape the con tagion which ragts among the married people, is indicted for wife murdcr. His name is Smith, aud he is a clergyman. He had taken out bis life insurance policy ot three thousand dollar, aud au accident policy of six thousand dollars, on her life. An "accident" happened soon after. The two were crossins a stream in a buggy. The buggy upset, and wbeu the reverend gentleman arose ho could see nothing of his wife. lie, therefore, went for help to a house -a quarter of a mile distant nnd the body of his wife was nftcrward found in the stream. It has since bec-n proved that tho depth of the stream was but seventeen in. dies, and cor sequciitly it is inferred that Mr. Smith killed bis wile by holding her under water, for the sake of the insurance.

On last Tuesday moruiug, abaut eight o' clock, tho citizens of Oil City were shocked and not a little excited by the find ing of the lifeless body ot an old and re spected resident of Venango City, Dr. J. A. Lobaugh, under the hi"h sidewalk that leads to the river bridge. When the body was found it was quite cold. There was no marks of violence on it. but on examining the head the traces ot a severe blow, that bad tho appearance of having been made by a stone were found. It was first thought that the doctor had been foully dealt with, but. afterwards it was found that he had been under the influence of whiskey tbo night previous, and a theory was then form ed that he had fallen off the sidewalk to the ground, a distance of perhaps six feet, had struck his head against a stone, which produce concussion ot the brain.
