Vcs, sir,' 1 replied. 1 lull the note ou mv way to dinner, ns my employer desired, but when I called for the answer ou tuy ,ieUnUir Xr8. lordant j s.iifl : . ...... 'I Itavo bueu so much engaged that I , huvo hot written any reply to the note you j brought me, but if you will walk in and I wait about ten ruiuulus 1 will have it ready for you.' 1 followed her into tho sitting-room. Ou the sofa sat a young lady who was in troduced ns Miss l'utuam. Excusing hcr Bell', Mrs. Mordant went into the library to write her uotc, leaving Miss I'uluam nnd myself to entertain each other. . 1 had seen young ladies who had im pressed mo ducply at first sight, those that 1 thought I could love uuder favorable cir cumstances, but ucver before had I 'seen any ono who thrilled me as did Miss Put nam. . She arose, acknowledged the intro duction by a graceful bow, crossed tho room aud took a scat by the window. Her fea tures were beautiful, her form comely nnd her movement full oi lady like grace. In those few seconds I saw in Miss l'utnatn all that had ever charmed mo in ' woman. When she spoke It was with n voice whose musical sweetness I had ucver before heard equaled.. . What a beautiful day it is,' she said. 'Very,' I replied. 'Aside from its me lancholy associations of falling leaves and decaying life, I think October is the plua sauleHt month wu have in the city'.' 'You feel 60 now, ncrhaps ; but will you be saying the same tiling of June some day next summer ' 'No, 1 am not ono of tho Gckle sort ; I know what pleases me. These cool Octo ber days, with their soft sunshine, cause me to feel better and stronger than I do at any other season of tlic year. There is something, too, iu their mild radiance that U peculiarly fascinating and when June comes with Its bright, sunlight and joyous life, I shall remember them with pleasure and long for tboir return,' I said this with an enrucstuess that gave to every word a double meaning. Miss l'utnnm evidently realized their import, for sec blushed slightly, and although dri ven iuto a corner, she hazarded another shot regardless of the consequences : .'You men always preach constancy.' 'And some of us practice what We preach I .hope.. At this point tho aponrauce of Mrs. Mordant with tho uotc put au end to our conversation.-- . .; . 'Excuse n.e for the trouble I have mnde you,' said that lady. ... . 'No excuses are ncceBSory, Mrs. Mor dant, I assure you, it was no trouble al all.' Aud I bowed myself out,4iml walk ed toward tho store liko one iu a dream. In that brief interview I had realized mv full capacity for lovitig a genuine woman. V r. who nnil u'h'it.

Mrs. ISty aut had been nu iuiimaiu friend of my mother, and it was the remembrance of thislriendship that gained mean invitation to her party ; for her position iu society was BUchJthat I had very little opportunity lo nssocialu with persons in her set. I had made cvury cllort except direct in quiries to get syniB iuformaliou couccruiug Mio9 l'utnatn. I had been to tho theatre every night, lu the two iSubbatlis that Imd passed I had bueu in as many six. dilil'rcut churches, with the hope that 1 might meet her, but all iu vain ; and 1 excepted the in vitation lo Mrs. liryaul's parly more to have somelUiug aev in which to inlcrcKt myself than wilh tho hopo of either meet ing with or learning auythiug couccruiug tho object ol my strauge uiissiuu. Tho evening came at Inst, aud having made a careful toilet, I went lo tho house. Mrs. llrysmt received me very cordially, and after the usual greetings, shu said : 'A young lady has been waking inqui ries auou'. vou. 'Who is she V I asked, my manner probably showing some agitation, for my hostess opened her cycsalitllo wider, nud looked nt tuo pretty sharply. 'Miss Carrie l'utuam ; do .you know her V 'locally I cauuot tell. I was introduced to u Miss Puluntu about three weeks ago ut Mrs. Mordant's but I have nol seen her since. Hut how did she know 1 was com ing hero to-night V I accidentally mentioned your natno ; she became suddenly interested and usked several questions about you, but ollcred no explanations.1 I was greatly agitated, but could not let such an opnortuuity pass for gaiuiug tho in formation i so much desired. Miss Carrie Putnam was evidently tho pcrsou 1 had met at Mrs. Mordaul's. While 1 was try ing to fiame my nexfquestion, Mrs. Hry ant asked with a merry twinkle iu her eye. ' 'What U it, John, a caso ot lovo at first sight V . - Perhaps ! But who is this youug lady ? Vlio are her puienLs V What is her posi tion iu life V 'Her lather Is a w holesale merchant on C street. She is a big Catch, Johu I advise vou to win her if vou cau.' Has sho auy othor suitor to stand in my way V 'None that I know of ; sho has admirers enough, but I do not think she has auy ac cepted lover. But come iuto tho parlor, aud 1 will prcscut you.' "l followed her iuto the parlor, .and was formally presented lo the couipuuy, Miss Putnam waa staudiug by a large ceulre ta ble idly turuiug over tlto leave of a photo graph album. I recognized her instantly as the person I had met at the house of Mrs. Mordaut. My heart almost leaped iuto tuy mouth, "bul by a mighty effort 1 restrained myself as I followed my hsatess forward aud was specially ptescuted to the lady, Mrs. Jiryaut saying as sho left us, that she 'hojied we would find each other's company agreeable.' Wo certainly ehall ! t said to Miss Mew NfirlM, Vol. 5. . Jtt. ! Old Kcrl-), Vol. 3, No. 41.

'Why should you be so desirous of win nine tny particular favor ' 'Decausc your friendship Is more desir ablo to mo than that of any other person I know of y 'O lie 1 you have never seen me but once before this evening ; jwrhaps in a week from now you will wish to drop my ac quaintance forever.' ' Never I if I know 'the meaning1 of my own feelings toward you.' JJuring the remainder of that evening I was by Muss Putnam's side full as much Kood taste would allowe. Mio could uot mistake the meaning of tny attentions af ter what had been said, nnd when it came time for the comiiany to separate I was mado almost wilu with Joy by nu invitation to call upon her at her home. 1 need uot loll you any more of the story Mr. Putnam, alter due inquiry us lo my buaincfcS capacity' aud persounl habits, gave me full pcrmixsion to pay tny ad dresses to his daughter, and in "less "than a year I led her lo the alter.

The srand movements of great events, and the chan- npplo gave Newton the clue to gravitation ; tho rising up of the lid of a tca-ketllo gave us our railroad, nccnu steamers, and a thousand other things not to sjieak of tho press that, cornbiued, put the worid cen turies abend in the mysteries of tho uni verse and tho purposes of God.

Sho had read iu the wipers of tho revenge of a PcunxylVAulil' woman whose husband had struck her, nnd she determin ed to imitate that female's action. When the Pennsylvania woman was struck slio threw herself into a trngic attitude, aud exclaimed, "Villain I nothing bul death can wipe away the slain of your blow." Then fchu rushed out of tho house, ran to the canal, nnd throwing her hat and shawl on the hank, Hung in a big stone, whicll made a loud splash. She then hid in tho bushes nud watched with dviuauinc joy her. husbaud nnd a party of friends grappling' for the budy. When shu thought she had sufficiently punished her lord she niltde her apicarauce: and was received by him with demonstra tions of joy, and he begged her forgiveness, took her home and promised to be kind and loving lo her forever. Tho oilier day tl'o Oototi woman had a battle royal with her husbaud. He didn't strike her lie was loo mauiy for that but ho said such irri tating things that she was driven to mad ness. "Inhuman monster 1" site shrieked, "I will never again rest beneath this roof. The river bed shall bo my tomb its' waters tny winding sheet." Out she rushed lo the river, which rarf. within a quarter of a niile of the house; threw bcr handkerchief on the bank alio had neither lutt nor shawl on, and then sho Hung into the clear water a largo stone.' This done she hid in some trees and await ed the coming of the renlorsc-slricken hus- ahout t agitato In drcn and then committed suicide. Sho could not bear the suspense longer. It was' dark uow, and shu quietly stole to the lxuise. There were lights in it. and everything' . looked as cheery nnd pleasant as usual. . ISho crept to tho window and looked iu. There sat tho remorse stricken husband,, with his arm around the waist of a young lady neighbor, and he was saying : "Jen nie, the old woman got her back up to-day,' and she went oil' uud drowned herself; ; Xow, you see, I dou't want to break up' house keeping, aud it you'll consent, why; wu'11 gel hitched iu two weeks. What do you say V" , "She shan't do any thing of the sort, ana neither will you, you miserable, unfeeling, heartless wretch I" came from tho wife nud she dashed into tho rootu. For a few minutes Jennie was tossed and tumbled about by the uudrowned woman iu tho most horrid manner, aud when Jeunie re tired from the house sho looked as though' she had beuu through a carding machiuc.'. The Croton woman doesn't intend trying I any more sentimntal experiments on her ii i i . i :u I. ti husband ; bul will hereafter do all her light ing in the old fashion. It need hardly bu in tiitionid that her husband is not living iu a slate of perfect and unalloyed beatitude at present. N. Y. DitytiVeh. A Domkstic TllAOEDV IX Daniil'uy.
