He was a younj man, with a rea sonably good education and pleasing presence. An average American of the city-bred port; bright, active and very much in love with Ler. b:he, pretty and sensible.thougb tri fling and snowy on the surface, loved him after a certain shy, unspoken fashion. Doth knew it, and had not exchang ed a word, hardly a lock expressive thereof. Like children, one was afraid, and the other dare not. It has been remarked by a certain orator, that "happiness U like a crow.-" Love is much of a feather. It sits in Ihc tree-tops, sings its song, and all the birds of the forest arc more or less charmed. Hut, anon it flies to the ground and feeds itself upon com monplace things. The poets never 08k of it; yet love eats really eats like any other creature. Tuke away its dinner, and it is a poor-spirited bird. With great wisdom our young man had apprehended this fact, and though he was a trifle ashamed of it, worked hard that his love might have some thing to eat. He toiled that he might tempt the shy bird to live with him by the offer of a good dinner. Instead of being ashamed, he should have been glad. He was ashamed, and on this fact hangs the curious part of this little love tale. Slie, too, had some worldly wisdom, though sue iiiu ii iroiii mm. i tie ittea oi love being dependent on dinners ! Yea, it was so, and it was not nice to think of it. Therefore she did not. The English of all this is that he was at work in a store trying to win enough money lo enable him to mar ry her. ' Yery proper in him, to be sure. Yirtue is always reworded, and his employers had given hints tiiat it tie was good he should be ' ta ken in." With her hoped-for love in view, he tried hard to be very, very good. Hut the firm suddenlv suspened, fail ed aud utterly stopped, and the poor boy was penniless. "Yirtue never is awarded," he said to himself in disappointment. Yirtue is its own reward, only it is hard to see it without a cent in the world. The store and hope were locked up the same day, and he went to his lodgings almost broken-hearted. How or where he was to earn a liv ing was a problem.- He sat down in his forlorn little room, to consider the matter. Yery little thought could he give to it. A greater question ap peared and drove it away. A dark er shadow extinguished the gloomy prospect, and it was very dark in deed. A poet would have said that even the stars were blotted from his darkened sky. It was worse than that, for the gas was shut oft". Mic is a very vexacioiis subject sometimes, lie knew it now, and was sorrowful. The history of their love was not remarkable, but its as pect under the present circumstances was peculiar. They had met at some party, been introduced, spoke, danc ed, and called, on her invitation. He called twice, three times many times. They went to sec the pigs when the cattle fair came around. They had read the same books, enjoyed the same flavor of Jessop's candy, and been out to walk together in the moonlight with their rubbers on. Her father and mother approved, and everything went on as smoothly and sweetly as Stewart's syrup. His prospects were good, and she was of a suitable age to know her owu mind. It was commonly report ed that they were engaged. It is never safe to believe reports. They were not engaged, though they both adored lho same things. However, if they were not engaged, there was every prospect that they would be, if nothing happened. hy not 7 He was to be a partner soon, and could support her properly. Something did happen. The firm wound up, as we have seen. Under these unhappy circumstan ces, what ought he to do ? He could not even think. He was absolutely without means of support, and the engagement should be broken ofT Engagement! They were not en gaged. Yes, they were. Had she not accepted flowers from him; had she not gone to the Sunday School concert with him, had they not "sat up'' ever bo late after everybody had gone to bed, at least a dozen times f Had not her mother invited him to tea, and had not her father taken off his hat to him in the street? He was the recognized suiter for the daqght. er's hand, and something ought to be dono about it. Under his present circumstances, he ought not to bo engaged to her he was not, and yet it was a delicate question. To solve it was a sad trial to him. ' He slept upon it, and awoke the next day to find that the trial had made a man of him. Trials always burn away the cheap surface, and bring out the gold within. ESTABLISHED, 18 2 He had not told his love. They were not engaged. Still, he had 6hova her great attentions, and his advances had been received cordially. Under his present circumstances, chiv alry and honor forbade further ad vance. He must leave her free open to more advantageous offers. He must leave her forever and forget her. Xo; he could not do that. He could go out west and begin life anew. Xo! Ho could not could not. And here he mode a discovery. He loved her. With all her apparent shallow ness she was a splendid girl at heart, and he loved her, and must leave her. And how could he explain or tell her how it wks with him. How could he ask her to wait wait for him perhaps for years. Wait while he searched for a clerkship.that when obtained would not support them both. Her father was a man of business, and possessed of some wealth. What would he sav to such Surprised at the sudden strength of character his trouble had develop ed, he took a manly stand and resolv ed he would call on her, bid her fare well, and leave her with his love uti said. He would suffer alone. Per haps time could cure the smart. Peo ple said it would, though he did not believe it then. Cotne what might, he would not stand longer iu a false position. He would see her at once. Xot without a furtive tear or two, he arrayed himself in his best and went out iu search of breakfast. How ill seeming his present wardrobe and bis poverty. He must leave his cost ly lodging place at once. He would begin to economize immediately by buying a cheap breakfast at some res taurant. It was a sad meal; the wretched food and dismal saloon wearied him, and somehow the bread was salt. He crept into a dsrk cor ner ond rumpled his damp napkin in a vain effort to be cheerful. Then ho went out at the strange hour of ten in the morning to find her home. The streets were full of people hurrying on, and on their business or pleasure. For him their was neither. He had never been in the streets at that hour, and they seemed strange and foreign. Her home was qnite at the other side of the city, at the far end of the horse railroad. How many times he had gone thut way. He must walk now. The cars passed on empty in endless procession, in a way he had not no ticed before. He would not hurry, for it was such an unreasonable hour to call. He pauseil to look in a print store. Therj was a picture hanging thero representing a family gathered in homely comfort round a simple meal in some Scottish hut. Semi-poverty in every line of the cngraviug; but there was also love and peace, chil dren and happiness, lie gazed long and earnestly at it. Love and want. Somehow thev were not friendly ex cept in pictures. The picture was a lie, nd yet it was true. Love is greater than poverty. A policeman said, "Move on, move," and, hustled by the crowd, he was compelled to return to his present sorrow. With a heavy heart he took up his cross and his way at the same time. He would be a man at any rate, ami see it through, whatever happened. Refusing to look to the right or left, he went steadily on, and presently, with a beating heart and nervous fingers, iang her father's bell. She herself opened the door to him. Smiling, clad in simple morn ing suit, ond, as if to add to his sor row, full of winsome merriment and goyety. She asked him into the par lor, that she was just then flirting a feather duster through, and they both sat down in tho flecks of sunshine and shadow behind the group of window plants. After some commonplaces, she said: " See ! The slip of geranium I cut from the boquetyou gave me. It has rooted already. I'm glad. It will make a nice plant a remem brance of the flowers." He smiled faintly, and pretended to be interested. Somehow his thoughts would wander to something else. For a moment he was silent, and she said that he was not very amusing, and that she would return to her dusting. Hut he had a story to tell her. A story ! Xow that was worth while. She sat down in a low chair ln-fore him, arranged her drapery as prettily as possible, and said : " Hegin please, I'll be good." He had a brilliant idea. He would tell his whole story objectively, and see what she said to it. He would sketch his own case, ond while pre tending tp amuse her, draw from her manner and answers some hints of what he had best do. If she took it as mere fiction, no harm would eomc of, it and he could depart with a clear conscience. What if she took it as truth 7 What if she saw through the pretense 7 That was not very likely, and yet if she She was impatient. "The story, please if you have not fallen asleep. Poor boy ! He has to work so hard !" He legan. "Once upon a time there was a l voung man "How interesting!" "I say there was a young man.and he fell very much in love with ayonng lagirl " "(Jirl is better." "Please don't." "Pardon me. Go on." With an effort he resumed, while his eyes began to grow very bright. She noticed it in silence. ,' "He loved her very much, though he could not tell whether she return, ed his love or not. He had not made how shall I express it ? There had been no over act. "Had not proposed you mean,'? "Yes, and for a most excellent rca. son. His business piospocta did not warrant it. Though everything was smiling and cheerful, still he thought it best to wait until certain events of a financial nature took place. "Couldn't support her? Yery pro per in bim to wait." He winced under this, and with an effort continued the story. "He expected a promotion, and hoped that when it came he should Ije in a position to marry. "How very nice !"' and she amiled in a peculiar way that puzzled him. 7. With some hesitation he went on. "Well, just as everything seemed j at its lesf, it it everything broke! d'JV.n." "H nvfad! I don't like the ttory. i Fell me something that's pretty and nice." This was the most cruel blow of all. He at once froze up. She was a shal low, heartless thing, unworthy of his love, and he fell to thinking "how he had been deceived. She sat the while in calm silence, toying with her feather duster, and inwardly harrassed by a storm of con flicting emotions. Love, doubt, sor row, and a great happiness struggled for expression. She glanced slyly at him. He seemed crushed by a great sorrow. His fingers were nervous, and the lids shading bis eyes moved quickly, as if to keep something back. A dreadful pain shot through ber heart, and she pressed her band on ber breast to deaden it. In a constrained voice she said: "Is that all?" He started abruptly and said: "Yes uo." "If no, tell me more." He brightened up and said: "There is no more. It is a story about a friend of mine, and I want to know what you think he ought to do. He cannot propose, because it is not chiv alrous to ask her to wait. And yet he ought not to leave her without an explanation. An explanation would be nn avowal a proposal. Xow what ahould he do?" With feminine jicrversity, she avoid ed the question by asking another. "Docs she love him?" "I do not know." With a suddcu impulse she s.tiil: "Has he told her?" He was quite disconcerted by the bold thru.' t, and was. silent. She held her hand on her mouth to keep her face smooth. Tears and a great joy struggled to reach the surface.

Marsh has leen very successful, lie has dis covered no less than twenty-one dif ferent ppecies of the horse family, all American. Some were no larger than a fox, the others larger than any we now have; some with four, three, two, and one toe. Prof. Marsh has also found fossil mosquitcs, fleas and bed bugs, the appearance of which was to show that they had ex isted before roan appeared, Besides, he also discovered fossil bats, mon keys, possums, foxes, huge turtles, crocodiles, lizards, serpents, a gigan tic pachryderm, nearly as large as an elephant, a ruminating bog, a gigan tic rhinoceros, extinct camels, and one carnivorous animal larger than e lion. All exhibited themselves in proof that the new world may claim an ancient and honorable position among the geologic families of the past. N.JI. Palladium, Summer Blankets for Horses. Blanketing horses in summer has now become an acknowledged neces sity, and light blankets are now an important portion of the harness maker's clock. The materials used for these are brown and bleached linen, scrims flannel and light brown duck. Muslin sheets are also used, but these, as well as those made of duck, are not popular. Linen and flannel are the favorite goods : they cost more, but arc durable and look well ; twilled braid is nsed for bind, ing and joining, and some of the finer qualities bare monograms or tho name of the horse worked on in very narrow braid ot the same shade as the binding. Scrims is used more as a protec tion against flies than for any other purpose, and Wing very lightly wov en, requires to be well bound and secured at the seams ; a strip of light leather should be stitched on under the braid, cither on the back of the scrims or between it and the braid; the edge of the scrims roust be turn ed in so that ihe outer row of stitches will pass through two thicknesses ; if this is not done it will ravel and the binding come off.

Things aiut workin cz smooth with us t-z'l cood wish in our movement for the releef uv the hard handed agricultoor ists uv lllinoy. We hev made some blunders ourselves, and besides, the farmers their selves don't fchow that abstract onthoosiasn wicb 1 wanted to see. They are too devoted to things purely personal to take broad views uv things. Our first misforehoou occurred in the election uv officers uv our Grange. I got a list uv the officers, and went on to fill 'em. Mr. Cephas Billing was elected Master, Mr. Pettes Treasurer, Mr. Blathers Secretary, and the other principal offices wuz filled by the other gentlemen who wooden decline a coun ty oflis ef they wuz urged hard enuff. "Wat am I to hev 7" I asked. Billins run his intellectooal eye down the list. "Wood it soot you to be Flora 7" he gently replied. "Anything!" wuz my answer. Whereupon I wuz elected Flora, and the list wuz published in the coun papers. There wuz a guffaw all over the county. Xot one uv us kuowed that Flora wuz a female! Knowledge is power ! The idee of my bein a Flora the goddess ov Flowers, and sich ! I mite ez well put on a white muslin dreoS, with low neck and short sleeves, and stand in a tabloo cz the Goddess uv Liberty! But wee endoored the lafture uv the populis at this little blunder, and went to work viggcrcusly to drum up recroots. We held daily nicctius. in the back room uv the Jackson Hotel, discussin the wrongs uv the laborin classes. To see us there wuz a site with wood hev mellid the hearts uv the laborin men.

Hi. A Leeaon f Fititb and Trad. A good woman searching out the children of want, one cold day last winter, tried to open a door in the third story of a wretched house, when she heart! a little voice say, "Pull the string up high !" She look ed up ond saw a string which, on be ing pulled, lifted a latch; and she opened the door upon two half naked children all alone. Yery pitiful and cold they looked. "I)o you take care of yourselves, little ones 7" asked the good woman. ' God takes care of us," said the oldest. "And are you not very cold ? Xo fire on a day like this ?'' "Oh ! when we ore very eold, we creep under the quilt, and I puts my arm round Tommy' and Tommy puts his round me, and then we get warm," said the little girl. "And what have you to eat?" "When granny conies homo she fetches us something. Granny ays God has got enough. Granny calls us God's sparrows; and we soy 'Our Father' and 'daily bread' evry day. God is our Father." Tears come into the good woman's eye. She had a tlistrusting spirit herself; bnt the? two little "spar rows" perched in that eold upper I chamber, taught her a sweet lesson of faith ami trust she'll never forget. Hi. Peter's i Home The supiciuc beauty of the church is it3 magnificently sustained simplici ty. It seems as it is a realization of the happie-'t mood of a colossal imagination. The happiest mood, I say, because this is the ouiy one of Michael Angclo's works in tie pres ence of which you venture to be cheerful. You may smile ia St. Pe ter's without a sense of sacrilege, which you can hardly do, if you have a tender conscience, in Westminster Abbey or Xotre Pame. Tho atund ance of enclosed light has much 7to! i do with vour smile.

The mind seems to expand 'here immensely, but on its own level, os we may say. It mar vels at the reach of the immogino tion and the vastness of our earthly means. -This is heaven enough, we say ; what it lacks inteautv it makes up in certainty. And vet if one's half hours at St. Peter's are not ac tually spent on one's knees, the mind reverts to its tremendous presence witn an ardor deeply akin to a pas- sionate effusion of faith. When you I are weary of the swarmin? democra- cy of your fellow-tourists, of the un remunerative aspect of human nature on the Corso and Pineio, of the op pressively frequent combinations of coronets on carriage panncls, and stupid faces in carriages, of addled brains and lacquered boots, of ruin and dirt and decay, of priests and beggars, and the myriad tokens of a baiting civilization, the image of the great temple depresses the balance of your doubts, and seems to refuto the invasive vulgarity of things, and as sure you that nothing great is impos sible. . James, Jr. tsdstat Dlayery ia l!laiBieaetav An island, and a guano island at!int w " e ueiT. ,''0luf CTU l that, has been discowered in Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota, of which the ! government surveys havo taken no notice.

The island contains eleven acres of land, and is described as of singular beauty. A portion is covered with a deposit of guano, showing that it is a favorite resort with the numerous birds which visit the region every season.

" The hawk, though con fined, was not disabled, and had free use of its claws. Whenever a crow came within reach, it was seized by the hawk and soon disposed of by its powerful talons. The noise of the contest drew more crows, ond our friend describes the contest as a most amusing one, and resulting disas trously for the crows. This was a trap which even their proverbial shyness did not teach tbern to refuse. A IIwmwrM llrrs.

If reports are true, there is a mod el young lady in Ottawa, Canada, who deserves the attention of some good family man, as well as a compe tent romance writer.

She took this woman's name and was taught lo look upon her as her mother. Five years asro a gentleman of X'ew York was visiting Ottawa, and learned the girl s history, t loser inquiry reveal ed the fact that she was his niece, the daughter of his brother, who passed away from earth very mysteriously years ago, or at least had effectually hidden himself from his relatives and friends. The gentleman, now, for the first time learned the manner of his brother's death, and being well-to-do and childless himself, he wish ed to educate the girl. The old wo man gave up the girl very reltict-T:t-ly, but consented to do what was best for her adopted child, and let her go with her uncle to Xew York. She had an easy home, and her edu cation was at last completed. Last snmmer she paid her .foster mothers visit and found her Tcry poor, in broken health anf unable to work. She was simply starving.

A new ctomologieal nuisance ha appeared on the trees in Philadelphia and also in Pittbnrgh during the pres ent summer, which threatens to take the vacant place of the "measuring worm" of unpleasant memory. It is of a yellowish color, says tho Ledyr, depends from a long silken thread, moves up and down it with facility, and feeds upon the leaves. Unlike the "measuring worm." it is covered with a sort of hairy coat, and for this reason the little sparrows, that did the good service to rid the city of the other nuisance, do not seem to take to this one as food. If the new pest is not met and checked it may become as universal and as disgusting as the old one was. There is a chance here for our etomologisU to provide a rem edy. The sparrows evidently are averse to the hairy coat of this worm, but it may possiably be the food of other birds.
