self until all the false curls quivered, as
Gen. S. NEGLEY
Molded the letter neatly. and put it back into 1 1
PROPOSING BY 'LETTER.- its hurriedly directed envelope.
"I Dever had an offer of marriage be- , is a candidate for nominat!ou itefore the Union Re
- pueean Couveetton.
I fore," she thought, viewing her autmnal nuor:d.tr •,
Countenance in, a pier-glass, and adjusting ,
the little puffs of ribbon in her cap border,
"and it does make one feel kind of queer!
It's something to tell of anyway. - *Bethuar
Jones needn't go to saying note that I was
an old maid, because Iliad never had an
offer! I just wonder what Arid would say
I guess I won't tell' her; she would only
laugh at 'me!"
Miss„ Experience drew herself up as
grimly as if her spinal Column were a bar
of iron, that afternoon.:when Bridget an
nounced:.
"Mr. Grover inenil"
"Show him Biddy—l am quite at lei-
Sure to receive him."
And our hero, entirely innocent of She
impending stoma that'awaited him, walked'
into Miles Experience's awful presence, with
a r, lnnidle of title deeds in his hand,, tied
'with the official looking red tape of his pro-,i l
fession;
"Good afternoon, Miss Experience !"
"flint' you ashamed of yourself, Harry
Grover?',ejaculated the spinster, in a deep,
stern voice. "Get along with yourself,
makin' love to an old woman mor'n twice
as old as you be, just because she's got a
little:money ! What do you take me for,
hey ? Don't stand starin there ! Walk out
of this room ' quick, or I'll throw the big
dictionary at head ! No, 'co, no! Note
have you got .. your answer plain enough ?
I wouldn't marry you if there wasn't an
other man in the Whole town !"
Harry Grover was a little appalled at till's ,
charge of horse and foot, but he stood his
ground manfully, not even quailing at the
big dictionary !
Missßrowne—will you hear me a
moment ? I don't want you to marry me !
What has put this strange fancy in your
head?"
"You don't want to marry me 1' Then
what the mischief does this letter mean ; I'd
like to know."
"May I look at it ?"
Harry took the letter, and glanced at it—
its contents threw a new light upon the un
accountable state of affairs.
"Good Cupid ! what a blockhead—what
unmitigated, inexcusable, incomparable
donkey I have been ! What could I have
been thinking about ? " •
"Hey ?" demanded the puzzled spinster.
" Excuse me, ma'am, but there has been
a mistake—a----"
And - without stopping to complete his
fragmentary sentence, he rushed out of the
room to the little bay-windowed parlor,
where Ariel usually sat.
"Well, I never!" exclaimed -Miss Expe
rience, as the door banged unceremoniously
in her face. '
"Ariel ! Miss Browne !"
. But Ariel turned haughtily from the
Pleading eyes of her lover.
"'Your letter is quite sufficient, sir; I
need no further exponent of your mean
" Ariel--darling--there has been an ab
surd mistake; this is the letter that was in
tended for you. The other was written to
Sour aunt on business, and by some' unac
countable blunder, got into the wrong en
velope ! I have been a fool—a blockhead,
but I love you, dearest, with all my heart !
Arid ! you will not send me away !"
No—Ariel did not send him away, for the
shy smiles and the rosy bloom were begin
ning to come back to her face as she read the
real letter ! •
"But Harry !" she said, with a roguish
dimple at the corner of her mouth, "you
must confess that aunt Experience's note
had rather an unpleasant style."
"I was a careless reprobate," said Harry,
frankly, "but you ,see Judge Connell was
watching me, and—" .
Ana that was the end of all misunderstand
ing between Harry Grover and Ariel Browne,
thenceforth, forevermore.
Miss Experience was rather disalippinted
in two things. She would like to have sold
the school house "corner lot," and she would
like to have said that once, in the course of
her fifty-five years of life, she had bad an
offer of marriage.
"However," said Miss Experience, "Ariel
is very happy, and may be things arc best
as they. are ?

BY SHIRLEY BROWNE.
Eleven o'clock—at least so said the gold
en tide of sunshine, creeping over the vel
vety turf of the village green, and losing it
self in the murmurous . foliage of the big
maple trees; and so said the
_little clock in
Judge •Cornell's lnw office on the Main
street, speaking in a sharp, melodious
chime.
Harry Grover glanced quietly up at the
uncompromising little dial, as he entered
the domain of "Coke upon I.4ittleton."
"I'm late this morning," he muttered,
,hanging up his hat behind the door; "but,
as good luck will have it, the Judge has not
made his appearance yet!"
He was ,a straight, handsome young fel
low, with curly brown hair, limped- hazel
eyes, and a healthy flush on his sunbroWned
cheeks—a young man whom you instinct
ively felt you could trust, a /' entrance, as
you looked into his frank,. honest face.
'There was not many such; raore's the pity-I
"Whew—whew—whew 1" whistled. Mr.
Harry Greyer, turning over his pile of legal
documents -in a very immethodical sort of
way.. "Law and love were never meant to
go together ;of thatl am certain. Pretty
'Ariel Brown's blue eyes are shining rogue
isly,out at me from every bit of parchment
or printed blank I touch. How lovely she
looked-last night—and who would ever sup
pose that the did cat, with the false curls and
grinning porcelain teeth, could be her aunt?
Rich, too, they say ; a good match for some
desperate fortune hunter, who is willing to
swallow the bitter old pill for, the sake of
the gold coating. Let me see—talking about
old Experience Browne, I believe I have
a business letter to write to her about
that piece of land by the schoolhouse
corners that she wants me to buy. Not I 4
When I purchase land for a building spot,
it won't a desolate pasture; where rocks
and mullen stocks fighttogether to see which
shall possess the staunch soil. The old buly
must take me for, a very unsophisticated
character indeed. I wonder, now if blue
eyed Ariel will ever bia wrinkled catamaran
clutching after bargains. Pooh.! I should
as soon think of a white plumed little - dove
being transformed into a greedy vulture ? "
He leaned back in his chair, with both
hands clatped on top of, his curly head, and
looked out abstractedly into the slushing
Tillage street, humming an old tune under
his breath—a tune whose burden was "love,
still love."
Plainly, Mr. Harry Groyer was very little
disposed for work that morning. And
when, at twelve o'clock, Judge Cornell
came in, there was but a hopeless chaos of
on
papers the table to represent his young
partner's matutinal labors.
"Why, Grover, you haven't accomplished
a thing this morning," said the old Judge,
glancing keenly around through his antique
silver bound spectacles. "I am- afraid that
the pretty girls at 'Squire Dockthorn's party
—last night were too nrach - for .your mental
equilibrium.';' • _ •
"Well, you see, sir, I've been rather sort
ing the papers over," said Harry, is little
sheepishly, 'and I've written two letters
this morning !"
"Two letters ?" -
"Yes, sir."
"May I ask to whom ?"
"One was to old 3liss Experience Browne,
about that lot she wanted to sell me—a
regular clipper, giving the old hag piece
of ray . mind—and the other— .
"The other—" .
"Ahem—that wasn't 'exactly a business
letter. Now, Judge, suppose you and I
look over the papers together!"
The Judge smiled slyly; he tad an idea
'as to what•the other letter contained! Every
one in town knew how hopelessly Mr.- Har
ry Grover was in love with pretty Arid
Browne I Judge Cornell had been young
himself not so very many years ago !
"It's just as well for the lad to marry and
settle down," thought the old gentlemen,
"and -Ariel will certainly make as sweet a
little wife as human moral Could wish for!".
-.. - Harry needn't have been so mysterious,
sealing and directing his two letters at the
tall desk behind the office door.
Judge Cornell knew just as well what
was in them as if he had read every word
with his own eyes. But young people have
a mistaken idea that old people don't know
anything ! -
Miss Arid Browne sat in her room, busy
with a complicated piece of bright-colored
web-work that ladiessall "crochet,?'-, when
Bridget tapped saftly'at the panels' or the
door.
"Please, Miss Ariel, a letter !"-
"A letteil and for me! Dear me, Bridget,
and who can it be from?" e
"Faix, then, and its meself doesn'tknow,
but Liwyer Grover's office boy brought
it, and an impudent young spalpeen he is,
for .
But here Bridget became conscious that
her young mistress was paying no attention
to her, and•withdrew into, her department
of the kitchen, there to n uricher griefs in
solitude:
Ariel's cheek had turned as pink as the
inside of a wild rose-bud, as she read the
superscription of the letter, and her- heart
beat, perhaps a pulse or two faster than was
its wont, but she broke open the missive
with a resolute hand and 3 ead: •
- "3lv DrAn Miss BILONME: ["Rather
cold beginning !" she pouted.] I must beg
to decline all further negotiations with you.,
As yoircannot for a moment suppose.l care
to possess anything so utterly worn down
and good for nothing, it is Aselesslo waste

-
Pea- - - -
' will call this- afternebn'and retUrn to
you the papers you so unnecessarily took
„the trouble to, send me. .
"Yours, very truly, H. GROVER.
Arid threw down the note'and burst into
" The cold-hearted,' presumptuous vil
lain!" she sobbed. "Papers, indeed l! I
suppose he maw the note ..I wrote him
about the pit-nic: Oh, how foolish I have
been, how absurd, and I am rightfully_ pun_
Ished for my folly !" -
But still Ariel wept on ; when a err of
eighteen has built :up _a glittering castle in
the air, whose foundations are laid in her
own..,heart, she cannot see. it dashed ruth.
Italy without a few natural
tears !
