"I &LalI see you to-night, Mrs. Kaith- .ane "At the (iranrers! Yes, I sball be tbere. I hope it won't be a crush." "Whj ? I rather like a crush." "Ob! A crush makes me feel i eious." Rupert Tborobury smiled as he looked dowD at the speaker. Some thing bad evidentlv put Ler out." "Are you ofton Ticioualy disposed, Mrs. Kalhlane ? It is news to me." "1 wish jou would, not call me that, Rupert. Mrs. Kathlane ! You do it on purpose, and I dou't like it." The last words were spoken like a petulant ebild ; and there was a cloud on tbe face which looked up for a mo ment from tbe soft, vividly colored wools wbicn tbe white and alender fingers were knitting into some in comprehensible "fancy-work." A very beautiful face it was, and a very beautiful woman was Mrs. Kathlane; and no one in the wide world was mors1 throughly convinced of the fact than Rupert Tbornbury. She was slight and small of figure girlish looking still, despite her four and twenty years. No other wo man would have dared, with her complexion, to wear the colors she drd, often in defiance of ordinary rules? she wore, this mourning, a deep, royal, purple dress, whith pur ple bands in her dark hair, and looked as no other woman could have looked charming. Her hair drooped over ber forehead in lustrous waves, and was fastened behind with a high, gol den comb. Her face was marvelous in its perfect form and brilliant cover ing ; and ber great dark eyes, with their lashes, were enough of them selves to turn an ordinary man's head. "I don't like it," sbe said again, 'glancing at ber companion, who was j abstractedly tanghngtne bngbt wools, I apparently "lost in tbonght, "and I sball be seriously angry witn you n voo. persist in bcmir so formal, tor it is fcrroal after you have known me since I was a little child, to speak as though we were strangers. "I'll not call you so again, Millicent. Onlv Mr. Tbornbury paused. "Only what ?n returned the imperi ous little ladr. riving him another searching glance. "Things have changed a great deal since you were a child, Millicent You are a woman now, wealthy, courted, flattered; and I but it is no use talking of these things, I must be going. Will you promise me tbe first waltz to-night?" "Certainly. I hope yon appreciate my kindness. I walu very rarely, you know." "I do appreciate it; and now I must go.down to that 'stupid old of fice,' as you call it, and make op for lost time. Good morning. Millicient don't forget your promise," and tben be was gone. Gone, and nncon cious, as he walked swiftly down the street, that Millicent Katblane'sjdrk eyes were looking after him, and, when sbe turned back to ber work, a soft sigh fluttered from ber beautiful lips, and a shadow clouded ber face. He bad known ber, as she said, since she was a littlo child; and be a strong, rude lad, had loved the flower-faced little Millicent dearly; and when at tbe age of eighteen, be bad been sent awar from borne to qualify himself to play a part in tbe world, news came to him that Milli cent, "bis little Milly," was married. It was her father's wish, tbe gossips said. Mr. Katblane, the suitor was immensely wealthy, and having been fascinated by Millicent 'a beauty, ber parents bad used all their influence with her ; and tbe end was sbe mar ried. Millicent, now Mrs. Kathlane, went away to ber husband's home ; and Rupert Tbornbury wearily went on with Lis dull. distAstinl labor, with not even the old boyish dream to lighten his tAsk. Six years more passed slowly by, making many changes in the affairs of both. Mr. Kathlane died suddenly, after two or three years of married life, and Millicent went abroad with some friends. Sbe had been back nearly a year now, and bad settled down to a town life. During this period the old childish friendship for Rupert Tbora bury bad been warmly renewed ; and set ESTABLISHED, 18 PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25. 1S74. ' charming as she was in ber child- ' i i , i . . i : UOOU, BOW IDal sue vras s woman sbe was infinitely more so. During this year, life had grown a deal brighter to Mr. Tbornbury ; he was prospering slowly and steadily, and had gained many friends. Anx ious mammas looked npon him with favor, and many bright eyes gave him bewitching glancef) hitherto in rain. His whole heart and he knew it was still with Millicent Kathlane; bnt ber marriage bad raised ber, both as to wealth and position, so far above himself, that be did not, except at some fond, delusive moment, dare to aspire to her. He was only a city man, plodding on in bis close city office wtih his three or four clerks un der him. "How beautiful she is !" be thought as be walked away from tbe house. "Just the same little Milly at heart, too, as in tbe dear old days. And her glances oh, if I might dare to believe in them ! seem as true to me as they were tben. But what would the world say ?" That nigbt saw htm at Mrs. Grang er's a fashionable woman, with sonic fashionable daughters, one of whom, Cornelia, bad made a dead set at Mr. Thornbury. He stood in the lighted rooms, watching eagerly for Millicent but it was not nntil "very late that sbe arrived. As she came down the Ion? rooms moving as easily and gracefully as though she bad been, from earliest childhood, ac customed to reign in society a murmur of admiration followed ber. ' Sbe was dre-weJ in a trailing roue oi paie silvery blue, witn an overdress of soft white lace ; her beautiful neck and arms were bare, save for their ornaments of fretted gold; ber face was untouched by paint or powder, and ber vived col oring made her beauty seem almost unearthly as compared with some of the inane faces around , her. Her black h air, elaborately dressed, was fastened here and there wtih droop- ing sprays of scarlet flowers, and at ber bosom, looping her overdress, and in her jeweled bouqnitierre, the scar let buds glowed and burned. "Is she not lovely!" That was a question which every one felt could be answered in the affirmative. And many envious heart was hid beneath the smiling face which greeted her. "There is Mrs. Cathlane, Mr. Thornbury," said Cornelia Granger, a tall, pale, ill-natured girl, to whom liupert had been saving civil noth ings for the last few minutes, and who was furiously jealous of Mrs. Kathlane in her heart of hearts "You gentlemen are wild about ber, I believe. Red and blue what ex cruciating taste! I wonder ber maids does not teach ber better.'' "Every one bas not your critical eyes Mias Granger said Rupert laughing. "I thought ber dress charmintr." "Of course." Miss Cornelia was not an amiable girl, as we bare said, and at that rnonent her temper was pinching her rather sourly. "Per haps you make one of those who are wild over her, Mr. Thornbury ! "It would be of no use to me, I ex pect, if I were," teplied Rupert, in bis candor. "Well, I suppose not as sbe is soon to be married again." "Married again!" be uttered. "So report runs," said Miss Gran ger, toying with her fan. "To whom I bad not beard of it." "toir. ortnington. a cousin ol her late husband, you know." "I know him," cried Rupert, feel ing he knew 4not how. "DickWorth-ington-8 not worthy of her. It would be desecration." "Sbe may not think so. It is said there was a great deal of intimacy be fore Mr. Kathlane died. She mar ried him simply for bis money that's well known and the handsome cous in used to be a very freqnent visitor. There was a deal of gossip about it at tbe time, and but there s Dick Worthington now. Look hew her color rises when she speaks to him." "Are you quite certain your infor mation is correct. Miss Granger?" Tbe pale eyes glance at him again and tben looked away. "A boat tbe engagement? Quite 6ure, Mr. Thornbury. At least tbe world is sure of it I am neither more or less wise than it" Mr.Thornbury did not change color at the news, or seem, in reality, to feel much surprise, lie stood laugh ing and chatting with the young lady for a few moments on different sub jects, and then excusing himself, sauntered across tbe room to where Mrs. Kathlane sat, surrounded by an admiring group, of whom Richard Worthington was one. "It is my walu," said Mr. Thorn bury, as she looked up, and greeted him with one of ber brightest smiles. "Or are yt-u too tired ?" "Tired?" She laughed a little sil very laugh as she rose. "I am never tired of dancing. Richard, I will leave my flowers and fan with you as a hostage' It was nothing, thU leaving with him ber Ian and flowers it was like a thousand other little coquettish ways which she bad but Rupert, think ing ob, so bitterly ! of what bad just bees told him, fancied that be saw something deeper than usual light coquetry in the glance she gave the handsome young fellow, and groaned ia spirit It seemed a full confirmation of what be had heard. "One, two, three. One, two, three. You are shockingly oat of step, Ru pert !" said she, after tbe first torn. "What is the matter? You look as stern as if too had seen a ghost." I have," be said, almost rnmly tbe ghost of dead hope," and she half frightened at his tons, looked up at him questioningly. But in another moment be smiled back at ber, and was reassured. Don't talk nonsense, Rupert There you are dancing beautiful now. W bat were you and that odious Cornelia Granger talking about so long ?" Odious, do you call ber:" i Well, I do, Rupert. I think Ler so, sbe bas not a spark of good feel ing in Ler. Don t you go and tell, now." "Do you think she is truthful Milli cent?"

"I have heard of your engagement to Mr. Worth ington." "Who told you that?" she asked. But in tbe same moment Rhhard Worthington stepped through the low window and came toward them. "I Lave been searching for you every-wbere," he said, laughing in his boyish, good- natured way. "It's my dance, most respected cousin Millicent." And she was forced to go, without another wortlto the man beside her. "Hare you and Mr. Thornbury been quarreling?" said Richard, who to do him justice, was entirely inno cent of any thoughts of Mrs. Kath lane, or of anybody else, as a wife. "He looked black as a thunder-cloud, and you are pale." "I was a little faint after the waltz," she answered "Don't tease me, Dick," and so Richard desisted from his inquirie. Meanwhile, Rupert .Thornbury, left alone with only his own thoughts for company, sat as utterly and entire ly wretched as a man can feel but once in his lifetime. Inside tbe rooms the music kept untiringly on ; the gay dancers floated past the win dows ; erery face was bright with smiles. Outside there, in the dark ness a man eat alone, struggling bravely to lift the cross aud bare it uncomplainingly. How long be sat there he knew not, but . at last he roused himself, and rose to his feet "I most go back," he said. "Cornelia Granger will have a delicate bit of gossip if she sees me here." So be went in and showed him self, and said a few words to Miss Granger, and strolled about he knew not wither talking to one, talking to another And presently found him self up-staira near the library. Tbe library door was ajar1 and aj be entered, a little figuer ail in sil very blue and soft white lace, with scarlet buds glowing and burning here and there, turned and advanced a step toward him. There were tears in the great black eyes, and tbe red lips were trembling like a grieved child, s. "Was it untrue, Millicent?" "Every word of it Dick, indeed ! Oh, Rupert!" He clasped her hands almost rude- "iou are not engaged?" Only a look Answered him. He caught ber to him, pouring forth all tbe sweet lore-vows that he had sen si rely refrained from before; and Millicent whispered that she never should be engkged, unless it was to him.

Accordingly the congregation knelt while several of the leading members fervently addressed the Throne of Grace. When the people resumed their seats one of the eldest most es teemed aad pious members of the church arose. "Brethren," said he, "nothing can exceed tbe wisdom of Mr. Seward's decision. I have no doubt the Lord directed bim when be wrote it, for it is just what we need and I know it will restore peace nnd harmony among us. Look at its great wis dom. The direction to keep the fences in repair, is to admonish us to take good heed in the admission and government of the members of the church. We must see to it that on ly those who are regenerated are ad mitted into our fold. Tbe direction to keep the spring open and pure means that we must not let our faith our love for God, and our lore for each other, get cold clogged and our daily walk and conrersatioa corrupt ed by the weak and beggarly ele ments of the world. And we must, in a particular manner, set a watch ful guard orer the devil the old dan gerous black bull who often attacks us when we are not aware of his presence and who with his long horns plunges at us openly and who has made many savage plunges at this church in particular." These remarks opened the eyes of all the people present to the wisdom and enlightened piety of Mr. Sew ard's decision. It was unanimously resolved to abide by it and peace, good-will and prosperity were restor ed to tbe church brotherly love took the place of hntred nnd piety increas ed. Nearly forty rears hare passed away since this remarkable decision was received bv that church. Its has leen continued down to tbe present time with unin terrupted prosperity.

Saturday evening James Cooper, the colored cook on board the schoon er Alta Vela, moored off pier 9, East river, New York, was found insensi ble ia the Captain's cabin, and was scut to Park Hospital. Dr. Fluhrer attended Cooper, and found injuries to bis cars and mouth which were not accounted for till Cooper rccove ed consciousness, when he told a sto ry which may be recounted as follows: Cooper shipped on the Alta Vela, which trades between New York and the West Indies, four months ago, and allowed his wife to draw his pay every month. The vcsel arrived in port on Friday, and Cooper found that bis wife had just drawn his par. On risitingher he asked her for some money, and she refused to give bim any. " After a qnarrel Coopor return ed "to the ship and told some of the crew that he was ired of life. Sat urday morning be procured two ounces of laudinum, which be drank, but this excessive dose made him 6ick. Thus disappointed be went in to tbe Captain's cabin, took a small Smith & Weston revolver, and fired one shot in bis right e?.r. He re mained stunned for several minutes, j and on coming to fired a second shot in bis right ear. The ball flattened against one of bis teeth and be spit it out He then fired a third shot in his right ear, and remained uncon scious till his arrival at the hospital. Dr. Fluhrer considers this tbe most extranordinary case on record, as tbere is no doubt that there arc two bullets in Cooper's bead. In spite of his injuries there is a chance of bis recovery. oat.
