meadows, on one side, a Inuit hrooklielits gray
inserting, and soft winds whispereti through the
rye and wheat fields, which were nigh . ripe for
the harvest. I had come here Iwo days bffore,'
because my nerves had giveu me unmistakable
warnings that they must have relaxation after a
Month's intense labor, which had kept them up
to the extramest point of tension.
It was a little country village, in the southern
part of Massachusetts, and I had selected one of
the back chambers of the solitary hotel which it
boasted, because of this view which opened from
its side window. I was thirty-two that month,
and leaning back in my chair, and looking out
of the window, I gathered up the years of my
life, and looked at, them. I had, on the whole, a
happy childhood, and 'a glad, brave, and strug
gling youth. My mother was a widow, and I
was an only son. She was a true woman. I,
her son, reverencing her memory, holding in my
innermost soul every thought and association of
her as something lovely and holy, beyond all
vice or nstaing, can think of no praiso nor ut
terance which so completely and perfectly re
cognize:l.er character and Iffe. She taught
school, and sent me through college and my
profesion. Then her health failed her. Thank
God, she never suffered. I had strength and
courage to save her from this, but could never
defray her expenses on that journey which the
doctor said would alone save her life. And to
think that a few hundred of all the thousands
which I possessed then would have done this Six
years beforsi , and,that I might have had her with
me thattmainier'mern"lng, her pale, sweet facie
her pato; lowliiiiiiii)ice—l put the thought
away,„4141544.41 4. 1 made something Oat: my

I had put 11;vrii my pride for her sake, siet's4:4i
cited the loah of a few hundred dollars from my
uncle, and I did this 'in the Arne of his dead
brother and for the life of my mother, and he
refused me—he, wifeless, childless, and eo rich,
and we his only relatives on earth! Oh, into
what rocks and stones this greed of gold hard
ens the souls of men! Well, they have met now,
and God be judge betwixt them.
I was twenty-six when my mother died. She
stood,.for me, as the type and representative of
all women. For her sake I had unbounded faith
in all, though I bad neverknown one intimately.
Of an artful, selfish, designing woman, I had
not the slighest conception, but I held all to be
as pure in heart, as lovely in character, as noble,
as true, as self-sacrificing as my mother.
In less than a year-after she died, I met her.
Bhe was the sister of one of my classmates, and
to wonderful beauty of person she united that
grace of movement, that rare fascination and
vivacity cI expression which makes a woman so
great a favorite with men. Larger acquaintance
with the sex has since convinced me that. this
style of temperament and character is most fre
quently associaied with lax.prineiples and im•
pulsive, but shallow feeling, andthat stick women
fill up their lives wish true iiid high and noble
purposes, but ilmt their beautiful Ireprtifes sel
dom condense into those fixed religitti4 princi
ples, without which all lives are roitilikee and
failures. Well, I worshipped Helen James. -,: .7 4

gaged for more than a your when I began to have
some glimpse of her real character . of the petty
social ambition, the selfish motives, the fitful
impulses, the desire for admiration, which gov
erned it. Yet she loved me. All the best im
pulse:l' of her nature, all the romance of her..
youth responded to me, and as there were in her
elements of a rarely noble character, so there
was a strong struggle betwixt the good and the
evil in that girl's soul. .14 - fafiliAlied out slowly

from her presence—that raise woman's—and
down to the river bank, and my faith was lost,
and one thought only slived me from the sin and
the shame of euicidu—it was the memory of my
mother. •
So, as I said, my thoughts gathered up all
these years, as I sat, a man saddened and dis
ciplined by the impatience of life, at my cham
ber window, that summer morning, gloriously
adorned of God, and set in a golden arabesque
in the heart of June. I wondered what I should
do with all this wraith (bat had fallen to me,
suddenly, as in some fairy legend I could remem
ber reading at mother's knee away up in the
early child mornings, and I said to myself;
" What abaft I do with all this wealth, I wonder ?

It was late in the afternoon, more than a week
subsequent to my first meeting with Janet Mid
thews, that I came suddenly upon her at the
corner of a field which opened out of a bell of
woods not far from her home. An apple tree,
its branches laden . with small yellow early ap
ples, grew close to the bars of the fence, and she
had mounted on top of these, in quest of some
of the fruit ; but she had only a precarious foot
hold, and had lost her equilibrium, and would
have fallen to the ground, had I not suddenly
arrested her descent. I filled her small work
basket with the apples which she was in hopes
"Aunt Minerva, who was an invalid, might
relish!'
"No, I will carry them for you," as she put,
out her hand for the basket, with many thanks
for my kindness. "I am very fortunate in hay
', your company for the rest of the walk."
"You were, Mr. taraySon—?" with a quick up
leap of the ahy brown eyes ; and then I read the
next thought which struck her—that I had cal
led aliout the washing.
•• I am an abrupt sort of man, MISS Matthews,
and I will explain my errand at once. I have a
(rimed and college classmate, from whom I yes
terday received a letter informing me that he
wished to obtain a teacher for the English de
,
pertinent of a seminary of which he is the prin
cipal. This is a rare opportunity for one who
in disposed to accept it, as the school is located
a few miles from New York, in the midst of most
delicious scenery. My friend, his wife, and their
half dozen teachers, form a company of highly
cultivated Christian people, such as one is not
often thrown amongst. The salary for the nine
months is five hundred dollars. It struck me
that the situation might please you—at least,
there could be no harm in offering it to you."
Oh, air. Grayson, bow can I thank you?"
She broke down here, and I let her ory.eoftly,
I had, three weeks before, visited my class
mate for a day, and heard himself and his wife
discuss the probability of a vacancy occurring in
the English department of their soboal. I was
revolving in my mind some method in which I
might serve the little heroine of the wash tub,
and I wrote to my classmate immediately. He
was under some obligations to me, and there was
no difficulty in procuring the situation for Janet
Matthews,
We had reached the gate of the little yellow
cottage before she spoke again.

She hesitated and blushed, and an inward
smile made a kind of flickering light and sweet

pupil after this.
It was an afternoon, among the last of the
summer, when I walked into the sitting room of
the cottage in the lane, and Janet welcomed me
in a quiet ladylike way.

notion that she will try her hand at some knit

she did not speak to me. I laid my hand on her
hair, shining like brown meshes in the sunbeams.
"My child, my little Janet, may the Lord Clod

t o shine upon you!"
There was a little silence.
" Nathaniel!"
It flattered timidly out of her lips, and the

" The sunshine is warm, but there is a breeze
in the tree-tops, and it is coot off there among

And Janet went.

her bonnet.

GEN. hUTLER STILL A DEMOCRAT
Gen. Butler still claims to be a Democrat—
that is to say on all the old party issues of tariff,
bank, and so forth. But in his gnomon/Hot; he
&veldt, the mention of the slavery questions. He
does not pretend to be a Democrat on them.
Here is a report of his speech at Lowell on the
29th ult., at a Republican rally
Ile wee glad that there was no party feeling
here; that all were emphatically Union men.
Distinctive party issues have passed away. New
questions have arisen, fuel now the salvation of
the Government is the theme occupying the
minds of true men everywhere, at-the North and
at the South—for there are and always hero
been a few uncompromising Union men even in
the South. lie said he was the same Demograt
now he had been in the past; od the tariff, the
tetek, on know-nothingiam, on all thing., on
love of country before all other questions or le
sues he claimed to he a Democrat. He inquired
how long Mr. Sweeteer (the Democratic candi
date toy Attorney General) had possessed the
right to instruct him in Democracy? or Beery
W. Paine, who acknowledged himself a stranger
in Democratic conventions at the one which
nominated him for Governor ? or Henry J. Gard
ner, who is now one of the prominent mem
bers of the modern Democratic organization !
For his own part, the General said he was with
those who were unequivocal in their support of
the Government in its efforts to suppress the re
hellion."
"Before all other questions or issues he clited
to be a Demoorat." This is his language. I
he Intends to deal here in a glittering generali
zation, let us understand it.. Lycurgus and
Solon were Democrats; Burke and Fox were
Democrats ; so were Voltaire, Roman, Franklin
and Jefferson. If Gen. Butler means Democracy
in that sense, let him say so, and we shall un
derstand him. Now we Bay he is not a Demo
crat in the broad Settee that these great names of
history were; nor is he one in the narrow limit
of the present political contest. To the proof.
In the broad sense, these great names of his
tory believed in the principle of eel( government.
They believed ire the inherent right of the gov
conned to make their own laws. They did not
believe in a despotism. They did a got believe
the _political fanatics of one section7tad a right
to'inake dud control the domestic institutions
of people of another section. They did
did*believe that the people, or the parties of
one section had the right to abolish the dome/die
institutions of another section. They did net,
believe that independent political sovereignties
in a certain sphere, combined for the purpose of
general defence on the basis of the cons& of
the people, by a rebellion of the people against
the general combination, were thereby destroyed
and annihilated. But they were Democrats in
the grand historical and philosophical sense of
that term. They did not believe in usurpation,
in tyranny; bat they were among the Fathers of
Democracy, and its everlasting principles.
Does General Butler agree with them ? Let
us see. Here is the substance of his address de
livered before the State League of Massachu
setts, which chose him delegate to the National'
Union League Convention to be held in Wash
ington in December;-
Gen. Butler took ground with those wbo
believe that the seceded States have annihilated
theinfelvee as States, while the power of the
General Government still remains inane over their
territory. He opposed the position of a member
of the Cabinet, that the rebel Commimwealths,
by throwing down their arms, should be received
into the Union with unimpaired rights—with
their old local institutions. His reasons for die
rating terms before allowing the incorporation
into the Union of these heretofore hostile sec
tions, sprang tram consideration, vitally affect
ing the interest and safely of the nation. If the
Confederate States are readmitted, and their re
presentatives take thisir seat in Congress (before
some radical change is effected) what guaranty
is there that the Federal national debt will not
be repudiated or made to stand upon the alter
native that the Confederate debt must likewise
he paid? Let, this question come before Con-
Odell and all the 'initial:tee of corruption would
be set in motion to secure such a decision as
would place the Federal and Rebel indebtedness
upon the same footing. Gen. Butler contended
that the Rebel States must be regarded as de
stroyed, or it would be almost impossible to
choose another President, for the reason that no
candidate likely to be selected would receive
such a support in the North as to give him
a =Orly of the whole Electoral College, con
stituted of all the States, both loyal and re
bel. Transfer the question to the House of Re
presentatives, where each Commonwealth oasts
only one TOW, and a majority of such rotes is
required, and the difficulty will be greatly in
creased. The policy of safety and justice was
to restore the Union in the South only as fast as
the principles of freedom and loyalty are extended
over the now rebel domain."
Here he takes ground that "the rebel States
must be regarded as destroyed." General Butler
knows that there is no snob thing in fact, in
theory, in any way, as "rebel States." This id
a fiction of his brain, of the brain of those agree
ing with him. States cannot rebel, but the peo
ple may. The people South have rebelled, but
the States have not.' A State cannot commit the
crime of treason, nor can it be punished for the
orime of treason. He an i d Sumner are abler
than Burke, for Burke did not know howto frame
an indietffient against a whole people. They
have framed one, and found the people guilty of
the charge, have pronounced sentence, and in
tend to use the armies of the North, the Demo
cratic armies of the North, to carry that sentence
late exeeedien. They intend to destroy the states
South ; they intend to force their own laws, con
ceived in the fertile brain of Music Hall, upon
the people of the South. This is not Democracy ;
it is not Democracy believed in and tanight by
the great fathers of history. Therefore General
Butler is not a Democrat in the broad sense of
the term.
Neither is he a Democrat in the narrower genes
of the isms of the day. The Democrats of to..
