A CERTAIN DISEASE.
Wben tbe misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he baa imbibed the seeds of
tbis painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-timed seuse of ihaine, or dread of discovery,
deter him from applying to those who, from
educution and respectability, en alone befriend
bun, delayiug till the constitutional symptoms oi
this horrid diseas make their appearance, such
us ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, uoctural
puiue in the bead and limbs, dtmnesa or sight,
deafness, uodes on the shin bone and arms,
blotches on the heitd, fuce and extremities, pro.
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the
pal
alate of the mouth or the bone ol too noseiall
lu, uud the victim of this awful disease becomes
a horrid object of eommiserution, till death puts
period to els dreudtui suuenug, oy enaiug
him to " that Undiscovered Country from wticure
uo traveller returus."
It Is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the bands of Ignnraut or unskillful PRE
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution, aud
lucapahle of curing, keep tbe uubappv sullerer

As he spoke, a close carriage hud Joshed

in hia arms, he slopjied abruptly.
'What! What!' he cried. 'A young
tramp. A beggar. Not dead '
'No. not dead yet. Mr. Ascot,' said tho
polieeinau, respectfully, as he recog'iized
the speaker, well kuown as the weitllliiesl
aud most influential householder ou the

Not the common sort, eh V Neither is

A moment mor.', and Mr. Ascot himself
led the way into a warm, spacious drawing

.'Thete's a roaring fire ready,' he said. 'I

The boy oH-ned his tyts. looked in a far
off way at Mrs. Somers, and then glauccd
dreamily, about the room. Evidently his
senses had not yet quite come hack.
'Mother, mother,' he murmured. 'I
can't find grandfatlier-atid it's so cold.
I'm so--' ;
Ilia fioad dropped ou her shoulder, aud
hi ryes clswd again. One of hi ltatnU,
which, up to thin moment, had hee.u tiglit
lv shut, opened weakly, a tiuto full to the
floor.
Mrs, Somers did not .m tho note. Some
thing in the boy's look had startled Iter;
she give a quick glance up at her master ;
then she began to tremble all over.
Mr. Ascot, who had been stnuding by
her, full of interested anxiety, did not ob
serve his look, for his alteution had beeu j
attracted by the note, which he now (toon-'
ed to pick up. Theu he proceeded to lake
out hi glasses, iu order to read the super
scription. 'Perhaps this may throw some light on
the matter,' h s lid. 'Tho poor lad has
been sent ou' au errand, and lias fainted
from cold, and perhaps hunger. What!
What I Good God !' his hand were shak
ing like a leaf in an autumn wind. In the
deep stilluess tho (taper rattled with a start
ling noise. 'It can't be it can't be I Mrs.
Somers, your eyes are younger lhau mine

mine Thornton Ascot V
As he spoko, in choked, convulsive gasps,
Mrs. Somer leaned forward t read. The
motion roused the boy again, und ho open
ed his eyes, this time with more of con
sciousness iu Ihein, and he lixed a long,
questioning, puzzled look on Mr. A soot.
'Merciful heaven !' tbe latter said, stag
gering like one struck witb sudden palzy,
'it is her eyea her eyes 1
With these word, he fell back senseless,
the half-open letter fluttering from his ling
ers to the door. Fortunately, the polieu-
man was in time to catch him, and luy him
ou the sofa.
For a moment the boy was forgotten,
every one pressing arouud the master of
tbe house.
'Is it a stroke V Bfckod the policeman,
anxiously, 'What doea it neao V
At any other time,Mrs.Somci-s would have .
been reticent about family afliiirs ; but alto
wns too Hurried lo think clearly. Surpru-
cd out ol' herself, she took her audience.
unconsciously, into her coulnli iae.
'Ni, it's not a stroke,' she answered,
with the experience of long years of nurs
ing. "His fuce isn't nwrv, you see; mid

all this while, Mrs. Somers was busy in
trying to revive her master, dialling his

ordering the window o-ictied, 'on a night

who, during lhU episode, had entirely re

Mr. Ascot,

attracted the old man's eye, 'Please, sir,

With these words he broke down, with a
great sob, the tears streaming along his
thin, wan cheeks.

ing lo his feet. 'Is il from Margaret f Did

poor, weak shaking hands vainly tried
again to unfold the paper, which the po
liceman handed to him. '1 I am not as
strong as 1 used to be. 1 think I am gel

Somers, and sank again ou the sola.

He drank it, aiiol rallied. 'Ah! ilisher

at the boy.
'Are oou grandfather ?' said tho latter,
timidly. 'I think you must be, tor mother
lias a picture she look ut, and cries over,
and it's like you.'
The letter fell again to the floor. Hut
this time ho opened hi arms, and the boy,
catching his meaning, came to him.
'You wou't let her die. will you ?' said
the boy, looking piteously in his face.
'Die, die I' cried the old man, rising up ;

'She shall not die. Where is the carriage ?

most angrily, and he turned toward the
door, where the footman apHared.

No, my brave little lellow,' Uo said, "your

In a few minutes, during which the
thoughtful Mrs. Somer had provided a bis
cuit, and some hot lea for thu boy, the lit
tle party set forlh. While the carriage is
rolling over the snow, its destination beiug
oue of the most distant and obscure street
of the great metropolis, let us say a fe w
words ubout tho daughter.
Margaret Ascot had been one of those
sweet tempered, sympathetic natures, thai
everybody loved, lieautiful. accomplish
ed, wealthy, and well-born, she had crowds
of suitors ; but at nineteen she turned from
tbum till, and gave her heart to a penniless
lover. . This wus not Itecause she was fool
ishly romantic, like so many others, but
because her suitor was worthy of her in ev
ery way, except iu riches, lie was only a
poor music teacher, an Italian exile, for
this was in days, now, forluuately, long
ago, before Italy was free, and wlieii to be
au Italian patriot meant banishment, or
even death. Andrea t tlltppo had, when
hardly more than a boy, joined m the in-
Miriecli iu of 'iS. and bad Urn compelled
! utter its failure to tly the country., He had
come to America, and beiug penniless, had
het: 11 comielled lo lake up the til st pursuit
I ihalollend itself. In his. own land, near
ly everybody has some knowledge of music ;
but Andrea was an Amateui of more lhau
ordinary merit, and he naturally became a
teacher of singing. Margaret Ascot was
his favorite pupil. He saw In her ever
thing lhat youthful manhood, in its high
est tvne. udnurcs; she saw in him a hero
and a martyr. Compared with the prwaic
young men of business), or the cold, calcu
lating lawyers, or the idle men of fashion,
who constituted the bulk of her admirers,
he wa a prince iu disguise a young god !
Parent do not sufficiently mak a allowan
ces for I he imaginative element in their
daughters. Thev fauey that, at nineteen,
girls can feel as their mother do at forty ;
that the dry husks of a mutter-of-faci life
are sutlicicnt for them. It is not bo, and
Mr. Ascot, though a sensible mau in other
respects, could uot understand why hi
daughter was cold to her wealthy lovers,
and had giveu her heart to the exile.
When Margaret, hopeless of altering hia
opiuion, finally ilojied with her lover, h
wrath knew uo bounds. He refused to an
