brought back to me too forcibly ono who is

tor as a shout tvas heard outside tho window. r
It is only Arthur Chavasse. I mot him at
.tho gate, and ho ran in with me.”
“ Let him come in, let him come in,” cried
Mr. Leicester, eagerly. “Ho can tell me if it
beitnie.” .Mr. Hurst called to him.
“How are you, sir?” said Arthur, holding
out his hand, “ and how is Mrs. Leicestor ?”
The rector shook his head.,, “ As. well, my
hoy, as we can expect to be bn this sido of the
grave, . Arthur, when you shall ho as I am,
health and strength-gone, there is only ono
thing will give you comfort.”
. “And what’s that, sir?” asked Arthur,fear
lessly, The remembrance of awell-spent life.}

it, hot evil; good to your fellow-creatures,
for Christ’s sake, who did so much good for

“ Certainly,” rcplied Mr. Loicester, while
the.curate turned away his head to.hide a
smile. ' “ Arthur, I have, heard to-day that
you are going to lose your sister Prances.”
To lose.fier i’ echoed the boy, .Oh, yes,
I know what you mean. And I, am sure it’s
truo, although Mrs. Frances is so sly over It,
alpo why should she be having, such jumps. of
new clothes ?’I said to her the other day, ‘ I
reckon I shah got .some rides inside, the cab
how, instead of behind, it,’ and she turned
scarlet and threw a cushion at me.” .
“ It is really so, then, that she marries Mr.
Castohel!”, ‘ l ,•' - •.
'“ He 6aa been making love tfc her this year
past, only they did it on the sly,” continuec
Arthur. “1 saw. ; She’s- always interfering

’ Arthur rah out. ‘ Mr. Hurst stood at the end

this a stunning peart , why, what’s the

“ A spasm;” gasped the curate. “Run off
to your playfellows, Arthur.”
“ IVill you eat this pear, sir ?” said the boy,
gazing .with concern at his white face. “It
may-do you good.. I have only taken one bite
out of it.”. *

TteiSuken Propeller—Six Bodies Recovered.
The steamor-Champion, Capt. Peck, went down
the Sound.ydsterday afternoon to the spotwboro
the propollor J.' N. Harris was sunk. Nearly six
hunored.people were on board, all of whom bad an
opportunity to.witness the operation of tho diver,
who was' at work when the steamer reached the
spot. When the boat arrived, Captain Smith, tho
master of tho propeller, came ajongsido and in
formed the people that three descents had been
made by the diver, Mr. Hoff, and that six bodies
hod been recovered..
One of them) that of a man, was unknown—tho
Others were recognised as those ot Alfred Smith, of
Ne?r London, Annie Willis, cook of the propeller,
Miss Robinson (theyoung lady who was under Capt.
Smith’s charge.) and two pf Copt. Smith’schildren.
.While the boat lay to near the wreok, the diver
; made another descent, and remained underwater
minutes, when he was raised .to the sur
face, not having guoceded in recovering any body.
Tho armor was tboh'removed from tho diver, ami
labor for tho day suspended.
Tho boats engaged in the search remained by
the wreck lost night., If the Weather permits, the
diver will resume operations this morning, and it
hrbelioved that he will bo able to recover all the
remaining bodies to-day. Mr.' Jlaff reports that
the wreck remains firm, and thinks that it can.be
raised to tho surface with little trouble.
The bodies recovered havo all been placed in
boxes, and are in charge of Captain Smith, who
will forward them to New London.
<3ev« Marcy and Gen. Scott.
■ The writ*? of the interesting“ Recollections of
.TVm< L. MAreyy’.iu the Hew. York Examiner,
gives the following statements ns creditable to Mr.
Slaroy’s candor and. patriotism as, complimentary
,to the military’genius of Gen. Scott: " ! .V,
“In one of iny lost interviews withGoy. Marcy,
I recelvod from his Own lips a full statement of the
oircumstanoes attending tne appointment of Gen.
Soott to the command of the army in Mexico. It
will be remenbered that in Gov. Maroy’s famous
letter .to Gen. Bcott, at tho dose of .tho war, the
Govornor-rCferred to this appointment.ns ono in
the responsibility of which ho had a 1 full share.
This was modestly said. Tho appointment was in
tho strongest sense Goy. Moroy’s own. Xho ‘eoup’
dorrcspondenco of Gen. Bcott had given mortal of
fence to the President Cabinet. It was
Gov.Maroy^'jodgmdnt,’ nevertheless, that Gen.
Soott was the proper person to command the army,
ahd~ he formed the deliberate purposo of securing
his appointment. Mr. Polk ropellod tho propeef
tionatonce. ,‘But you will hear me,’ said Gov.
Maroy. .‘Certainly, I will bear,’ replied the Pro
indent, ‘but the brooch betwoou the Administra
tion and Gen. Seott isirreparablo.’ Xho President
(Kd hbiir, an<l was convinced, Xho Cabinet heard,
and woro convinced. Thcro remained ono difficul
ty. There was a man, thou powerful in tho Demo
cratic party and in tho 6cua<te, who must bo tocon
uiled to the measure, Intmlor to make it politically
snfo, was' commissioned to silence the
batteries of the great thundcrcr.. ‘You have given
me,’ Said he, ‘the most difficatt task of iny life, but
I will not shrink from it? X regret that I cannut
depict tho interview, of which he gavo mo so
graphican account. Xho commission was success
ful-~Gcn. Scott wus assigned to the oommand—per
sonally unfriendly, a political opponent, and arc
oognlscd'asnirant for tho Presidency. The argu
ments qsed by Gov. Maroy to'secure'this result,
worn 0£ creditable to hts maguauimity, as they
wore to Ids wisdom and patriotism.”
Fort Monroe and the Rip Raps.
A loiter from Old Point, Va., to tho St. Louis
Republican, says;
- “Fort Monroe, it may bo interesting to state, was
first planned and located in 1817. by a board of
commissioners appointed by Congress, and consist
ing of Oominodords Lewis Warrington and J. D.
Elliott; J. Swift, chief engineer; Gen. H. Dor
.nard, a French engineer; win. K. Aruilstcad,
colonel cn'gineor; and Wm.MoKce, inojorouglueor.

and was constructed at a cost of two und u half
