the d-or of a Lotel on Hue de La
fayette, ccdily opposite the Grand
Opera, and touk a pair cf pleasure
Bcekere, and then as cf couie I was
one, can tell all about it lock us by
ttlong, long roundabout way to thai
famous place. The Champs Elyse
was full of carriages goiug aud com

livery, mode uteres like ours, and a

kiud of convevanccs, aaa all
-Mv r!nd of that victory,
exper
of tbe
South, and also because Cel. Danin
is elected. I am glad G overnor II oy t
also has received the popular voice,
but am sorry too that Uor. Hartranft
n,,.t h r i-fJnvprnor with him. So
had
been to the Hois de Cologne or were
going there.
We pasted the Column VenJ.jce,
which was then Dearly restored,
through the Arc de Tnompb, aad
paft nomberlesa fouutaiuH euu prtty
tower Leis, and fciiil pref.icr groups
of ohildrea nlavinir with their Dtir-es
under the trees, and little 1'urjeh end
Jadv shows and other performaaces
s little more ambitious, where tweet
music floated out on the air from the
cool shade of the tree, and so on,
one pleasing picture giving way to
another, until we were oa the smooth
wide roads that wind and turn in
an endless labyrinth among the trees
of the "Woods of Kologne." The
tortuous windicgp, the artistic but
artificial naturalness of the fcetluded
nooks among rocks, little lonely
places where clumps of trees and
dense underbrush invited lovers'
tows, ponds and lakes where during
the war the cattle drank, tbe little
LabLlicg brooks, tad above all,
crowning giory oi me
cascade fell and Buattered its spray
on the rocky ledges and waviug
grasses around. To be sera, we knew
that a reservoir supplied the cataract,
that the whole bad been built by the
band of man, and we could aot Lelp
imagining that those were imitation
rocks, but we enjoyed it all the same,
tor we eaw that the other people did.
In fact, I don't believe thit the
Trench people are capable of enjoy
ing Xature natural. Th;y would
shrink from the contemplation of Yo
femite, and turn ia disgust from Xi
figara, for tbey both lack the polish
and refinement a French artist would
have bestowed, aad they arc too co
lossal, and they arc ceeisaniy
coarse.
But to return to the gay littlo pic
nic parties, aad gentlemen with oth
r Bitn's wives, and women wi:h oth
er ladiea' husbands, and young men,
aod very handsomely painted Bnd
otherwise ornamented girls of the
lU mi vionde who eat their dinner?
with magnificent gusto f.nd thoa
break all the dishes afirward
end dance upon the table, aud, io
oLort, every possible combination of
nmr.anionshio except men and their
wives, aud all enjoying themselves
with that rociftsrous gaiety natural
to the French. It was a pleasure to
eee them ; they were all children for
the time.
We bad a cosy little dinner at the
pavilion, and I think it is safe to fay
that we were the ouly married
couple there ; but we enjoyed it for
all that, end at dusk returned, baaJ
in band, to the fiacre like a pair of
sweethearts such is the influence of
surroundings aud went to the Opera
Comique after. lut it was a happy
Jay without on ppeck oa tho whole
of it, and I think 1 would liko to go
there once again to tea if my impres
sions were correct, aod lo make sur
that tbe swans I m sailing oa the
lake were real ones, aad not gcesf.
But, while Tun is pleasant tc vis
it, I should regret exceedingly to ba
obliged to lire there. Far better I like
this pretty, clean and htiltby Puri
tan city "of Philadalphia, witu Ler
clean, white marble door-steps and
closed window blinds, which hid- so
much warmth and kiadt:aess within.
Everything I ere w, to my I Linking
justs it ougl.t to be, wi;b a very
few exceptions, and thiy are 1 ri
sing ones. I can never caa get done
expressing uy appreciation of the
bor6C-car ej stem th&t prtvcils. Al
most every fctreet ia this great city
bas a line ot horse-cars running up
one street and down tho other, and
crossing, and, in short, it matters not
where you went to go, if you under
hand tbe lines, you can go direct to
the door, aad if you doa':, the con
ductors will tell you, aad take a doal
of trouble to set you right.
Just now the city is full of gaiety
and pleasure, ail the theaters are open
and full, and while it is the proper
ihing to ey that th- legitimate
Prama is fostered ia Philadelphia,
tbe minetrels are far better liked aad
patronized. Carocross performances
ar of great excellence and draw Will,
and bwcatman's Opera Hoo.a is
crammed nightly with delighted rud
icneee. I went to (Lis latter place leieatly
and laughed till the tears came, and
then nearly cried afterward at a pret
iy Uttle touch ia one of tea ballad?.
1 don't know if it intercuts lb people
Somerset to know what they &r
playing ia tbe theaters bere, but cs
it is a fcnbject of great interest a iih
oi, I naturally write it.
Among the prettiest play I Lave

Our last storm has K It traces whico
are not altogether obliterated yet,
particularly the damage done to
charrhee. Thev are taking dawn
oac of the steeple of a Catholic church
CDnosi-e mv bouse, which was start-
pd bv the dreadful hurricane. Many
others are being rebuilt. It is singu
lar that while so mny churches were
ininfid. I have vet to bear ot tae in
iurv of a raloon, or other vile place

Tbe cooler weather Las bad the
effect cf deciding the winter styles,
though it takes a close observer to
note "the dllereuce between these and
the fall styles, e-xc?pt that the cloaks
which were bought then have been
laid bv oa account of the very mild
weather, and only worn now. The
cloaks are not nnite so lou as last
r;nrr. and are mostlT ia the same
shapes, with the exception of the dul
itaa mantles, whifh sre veiy fcand
sume. Furs are the saaio as last
winter, aud cashmere d'ess goods are
as much worn, while plaids are. very
p.ipalar.
Children's clothes ore very elabor
ate and haadsome; some suits costing
as high as $100. It is a tight to go
iato soma of the largest ftores and
see the multiplicity ol Lats aud oou-
n;o enri iha latitude offered for in
dividual taste.
There are crcttr liuie cottage bon
nets ia felt, and trimmed bimply for

velvet, plush and chemue oooaets,
and flowers aud feathers without end,
all beautiful sod rarii'uing to the fe-
ma'o heart.
Oae of the Cucst digbts I have Eecn
for a long time, wa3 tho celebrated
dry goods importing house of Jacob
Bizel & Co., 233 Harkc-t street.
There is pone as largo ia this city.
The bailment is full 150 feet Ions by
about 80 wide, and 13 filled ia every
part by flanntls, domestic plaids aad
white goods. Oa tbe Cret flocr are
boxet and Laka without end, coutaiu
ir.g all the newest atd stBpIe goods.
There are cashrae-res, choods, terge?,

It is maao of conL-ed lustre woo!

It will stand washing, will not shrink

It is double width, and cheap.
Thev have some handsome winter
skirts, "a very pretty and tidy fashion.
and a rreat tuanuty of shawls ana
wraps of all kinds; but specially pret
ty are some white tnit gooaa neecy
and Cliay, and exquisitely lovely; but
v.bea you get among the cloaks you
get lost entirely.
Tbey are of such rangniScent qual
ity, and in so many varieties cf shape,
material and trimmings, tht I am
excusable for losing my bead. The
majority are mado cf heavy diagonal
cloth, trimmed with proe grain silk,
fringe, satin, velvet ribbon and band
some buttons, aad buttons are hand
somer this year than ever before; but
there ere very mauy made cf plaids,
an.-l plain black cloths.
Of course, the prices of goods ia
wholesale stores ere secrets uot to be
unfolded but to tLe trade, but Mr.
I.avertll, a gentleman who took much
trouble to show n ab?ut said that
they are very cheap.
The second story is died with
goods for men' wesr, of all descrip

me, so I pass on to the third aad
fourth floors, or counting the bise
meot, tbe fourth and filth, where iney

which I saw iu that store ca.de up

It was odd, very odd, reckon it op i
tbia wsy or that way, or whatever j
way I might, the result was just the
same I bad ten dollars more than I
could accouat for. I weat over the
whole quarter's receipts again to sec
if something bad not been omitted;
but everythiag waseicite right. "Ha!
what's this ? It looks like a scratch
ing out; and yet it can't be, fori
never use a penknife." So I held the
leaf up to the light and ecaaaed it
closely, and then, turning it oyer,
scrutinized it again. "It certainly
does look very much like an erasure;
but no. it is oalv a little roughness
on the surface of the paper." I was
completely puzzled. It was quite
possible for me to have too little ;
but to cave tea dollars too mucu i
CDuld not understand that at alb
Well," I said to myself, "it's better,
at aay rate, than having tea dollars
too little." Still, tte luea oi icere
beiag a mistake somewhere made me
led very uncomfortable.
I had been very busy preparing
rov accounts ia order to preseut them
to my employers in the morning, for
the morrow was a quarter day, ana i
kacw in nothing could a clerk offend
so much as by being wrong in his
balance. So I thought a little and
then determined to consult Jackson,
our managing clerk. I was young at
the time not more than twenty; and,
having been in the establishment only
a few months, I knew little of his
character. He wa3 exceedingly at
tentive to business; but there was
gome vagus floating ruiiors going the
round of the place, which accredited
him with anything but a steady life.
But be bad always been very civil
and very kind to me, and eo, in my
di'emma, I sought bia adrico. He
went over my accounts with me, and
could detect nothing wrong.
"Well, Watson," be said, "you are
on the rigut side now, and if you
take dit advice, you will keep there.
Just pocket tbp money and say noth
ing more about it."
Seeing teat I demurred, be contin
ued :
"Of course you eaa do as ycu
please, but l Kaow mis mucn; u juu
wr-re ten dollars snort, you woum
have to make it up in quick time."
I was strain about to make my cb
lections to tuia moae oi prcceaurc,
when I w as cut Ebort by tne sales
man, who came to say that Mr
Jacksoa was wanted in the sale-room.
Ah he strode awav, Jackson turned
around aad said :
"I'll see you about it again, Wat
son. Ia tho mean tima you need not
mention it to any one."
I saw no mere of him uaill my la
bors were done for the day, and I
was reaching my hat down from its
peg, when he lapped me over the
shoulder.
''One word, Watson, before you go;
if ever it Ebould be found out where
the mistake lies, I will make it all
riirhtforyou. Goodnight."
That night tbe tea dollars were
ever before rae.
The nrst thine I remembered bp-
fore failing asleep was thinking of the
ping short, he tarued to Mr. Elliott
and cried :
"These are not my figures, sir."
"Then whose are they ?"
"I don't know, sir, tbey are not
mine; look, sir, something has been
scratched out bere."
"Umph S So there has. Has tbe
hdger ever been out of yoarcare i"
"So, sir that is, yes twice."
"When?"
"Last night and night before."
"Who bad it?"
"Mr. Jackson."
"Then call Mr. Jr cksoa up bere."
He came.
Mr. Jackson," said Mr. Elliott,
"there's an error ia Mr. Brown's ac
count ; something appears to have
been scratch' J out ; and as I under
stand you have had bis ledger the
last two eights, I thought perhaps
you could explain it."
Jackson turned deadly pale, and,
bending dowa to hide the ghastly hue
of bis countenance, be pretended to
examine the figures.
Yes, there bad been an erasure,
but be could explain it. He had a
private memorandum iu bis desk; be
would fetch it.
Tea minutes went by, but Jack
son did not return.
I went, but could not find him
"Osborne," I asked cf a porter,
"Have you seen Mr Jacksoar"
1 es, sir ; he went out about ten
minutes ago."
"Went out ?"
"Yes, sir ; he came down stairs
looking very w hite, and taking his
bat, he sati he felt rather ill, and
would take Eorue air."
I went buck acd told Mr. Elliott.
"Oh!" was all he uttered; Bnd
turning on hi heel he motioned for
ua to follow. He first went to Os
borne, wbo repeated his story again ;
and then be crossed io Jackson's
desk, which was locked. A smith
was sent for and the jock forced.
"Mr. Watson," faid Mr. Elliott,
taking out Jackson's books be nev
er called mo Mt. watson otiore
"will you eonie to my private room ?
I fcbell want you for a few minutes,
That few minutes expanded into
hours ; and the discovery of cmbez
a'.ement by Jackson, to the exteat of
socio thousands ct collars, was Iuh
result of our labor. These fraud
extended over several years; and by
a curicuj coincidence, the very first
of them was connected with my tea
dollars the last, of course, with
Broyn's hundred, and fifty. Xeed I
say that Jacksoa was never heard of
again?"
That night I walked home as man-

at break.ra3t, I laid the whole affiir
before my mcthor, and asked her
counsel.
"Give up tbe money, cf course."
"But you see, mother, I ara afraid
it would offend Jacksoc, b seems
so much to wish me to hush it up.'
"Never mind Jackson; do what is
right, aod I am sure it will be better
for you in the end. Tell Mr. Elli
ott" the bead partner "boa? it is,
and I am certain be will net be cn-
I ale the remainder of my meal in
silence, for, whilst I did not want to
make an enemy of Jackson, w ho
could, if be pleased, make my situa
tion very unpleasant, I bad strong
compunctious about keeping the mon.
ey. Breakfast was over, and as I
was leaving home my mother took
hold of my band and said;
'Promise me, Henry, befoib you
go, that you will give up the mon
ey." I hesitated.
"Surely, Henry, you would not
steal?"
"Steal? Never!" aud I promised
at once.
Jackson found no lime to tpeak to
me that morning, but when, in turn,
I entered the private ofnee, I saw
him cast an icquiring glance towards
me.
"This seems all right, Watson,"
said Mr. Elliott, after looking over
my accounts. "Have you anything
else"
"Yes, sir; I bavo still Un ooilars,
of which I am unable to give any ac
count."
"Strange ! arc you sure that you
have mis?ed nothing r"
"Ouite. sir: 1 have been over
everything several times, and las'
night Mr. Jackson was kind enough
io a.-sist rae.
"It's strange; but you can put the
mooey bacfc into your safe. I dare
say it will be found out before tLe
uext quarter is up. And by and by,
Watson, I iateod to raise your salary
Holloway is tcoioir to leave, and I
wish you to taks hU place."
I thanked hiiu. and heartily, too
l for a hundred dollars a year was no
small iacreaso at our hou'-e.
'Let 0 see. I think, Jacks n,
t be had be.lr bgin to morrow."
"Yes, fir; it w;ll re crtosf conveo
lent."
"You bear, Watson. I believe
tnere is notninj more, uooq morn-
Int."
There was joy ia our house that
niffbt. and on the morrow I went
forth with a light heart to take pos
eitssion of Holloway's stool.
And now, dear, reader, just take a
jump over the next three years. Jack
son was still in his place, bat I bad
risen step by step, until 1 occupied
post inferior only to tbt occupied by
biaifeif. The mystery attached to
my ten UoiUrw bad never been un
raveled, aud tbey (.ill rfposp peace,

live Committees and distributed
amongst tbe managers only. The
regular Democratic ticket as well as
tbe Republican ticket, was five times
as large. Ia most instances, especial
ly where very fow Denocratic vote3
were cast, the managers, after coun
ting tbe ballots and ascertaining tbe
excess, returned them to the ballot
box, but were to leave them unfold
ed, and proceeded to draw oat tbe
number of ballots ia excess. They
were cartful, however, to draw oat
none cf these small tickets, but in
every instance tbe large Republican
billots were drawn out and destroy
ed. "At tbe Mi. Pleasant poll 482 Re
publican ballots were thus drawn
cut and destroyed, and this poll,
where tbe Bepublicrns had voted
five to one against the Democrats,
was made to give a democratic ma
jority of 327.
"The most outrageous cases of
ballot-box stuffing occurred at the
two polls ia Ward Three of this
city. At the poll known as tbe Pal
metto hagice House, one of tbe
managers, W. L. Daggett, the fore
man of the eics a?tt Courier job
printing office, stuffed 2,500 of these
little tickets in the box after tbe poll
was closed. Tbe managers, nudiag
that there were 3.5G9 ballots in the
box, declined to throw cut any, but
counted them all, and returned the
vote of that poll as 4G1 for Mackey
aad 3,103 for O'Connor. At the oth
er poll in this ward tbe same act was
perlormed, aad the managers return
ed 121 for Mackey, and 1.8CG i
O'Connor, so that one ward out cf
tha eight in the city was made lo
give a m j jrity ot 4,392 votes for
O Connor. The utter impossibility
cf vctlug 3,560 perssas at one poll
iu the space of twelve hours need
hardly be urged. As the managers
swore each voter separately, and in
many cases consumed three or four
minutes ques tioning some voters, it is
cam to say mat tne average, time
cousamed ia voting each man was
one minute, which would allow 720
votes to be polled, provided there
was a continuous ttreum of voters
during the twelve hours tbe polls
wore opeued. let at this poll tbe
mauagrers make a return under oath
that 3 509 persons voted ia the space
cf twelve hours. By thU method
Churlest'n City i rnado to give
O'Connor a majority of C.527, or a
msjority larger tttaa the eu'-fro Dem
ocratic vote of the city.
" throughout this county and the
entire district the boxes were stnffid
in the sama way, not only la Charles
ton but la Clareudoa. .Not satlfchou
with stulSug tho ballot boxes, tbe
Democrats finding it impossible o,
etuff the ballot box at tho Washing
ton Engine House, in Ward Six., be
cause of the vigilance of tbe United
States Supervisor, put out tbe lights
and stole the box and destroyed it
because I bad a rnsjcriiy of about
5C0 there. On Edisto Inland where
1,000 Republican voters reside, and
where the Democrats have only 40
to 50 votes, tho Democratic pomuiis
siou'jrs failed'to op?a ihe po',ls, thus
actually disfranchising these voters.
' It is useless wntiug any more of
these disgusting details. 1 see n

of them I am itfraid will do little
meats, amounting, probably, to be
tween 85 or 90. I took him to New
Orleans after tho war, and from tnere
to Leavenworth, when I came in
command cf the Western country,
and so to Chicago, where be died.'
'He didn't die of bis wounds?'
'No, though he was bit three times.
Once at tbe battle of Coickamauga,
there was a shot passed under bis
belly between his legs, and be strad
dled himself out and would not move,
and I bad to get off and get on an
other horse. I was reported killed
on accouat of bis being riderless.
Everybody know him in the army, be
carried himself so handsomely and
walked 0 fast. He walked, as bis
ordinary gait, about five and a half
miles an hour, keeping everything
about him trotting.'
'What was bis breed?'
'He was foaled up in Michigan,
near Grand Rapids, and was a full
blooded Blackhawk, 1 C V bands high.
He was 20 years old, "my old black
horse when he died.'
'It was old age, I suppose !'
'Yes; but when I took him to New
Orleans I used to let one cf tbe staff
cfScers ride him, and he always got
covered with white foam, aad we
had green people in the stable, and
when be came back tbey turned the
boe on him. That gave him the
rheamatism and neuralgia, but it did
not affect him until lately.'
'He had good treatment till the
last?'
'He was always kept iu the Got
erament stables until he wu cutoff
from forage last Winter.'
'Without a pension, such aa old
veteraa ?'
'No pension he depended on me,
and 1 never went back on him. The

letter from ex Coagresman M acker
the UepuOiiuan eaudjaate for ;'lefiion
ia tbe Charleston District, will be
found interesting :
"Charleston, h. C, ov. 7, '73.
"My beau Sir: Yours cf tbe 5th

the Democrats have counted me t u
That 1 received a mspritv of leas

shall tell voa, and I bor.e rou will

can.
"In the first place, in ibe appoint
ment of maoartrs of elections, the
Democratic CocimissioQers ol Eler
lions in tbe several counties in this
district absolutely refused to appoint
a single Ucpubiican manager through
out the district, so that we were com
polled to rote without a t-ialo elec
lion officer to represent U3 ia tho ea
tire district. It is true we had
United fctitej Supervisor (tpnointed
at cacn poii ; ana tnoug-i tec xemo
cratic managers at moi-;t of the polls
admitted them iato tbe polliug pis
ces, yet they threw every obstacle
tney couia in tneir way, aua in no
instanca would thev allow them to
exercise any authority save to 8taad
Dy anu witnebs tne rotiDp;. iu some
instances th authority of the titter
visors was eot;reiy igcorca. la one
caae tbe managers orilered the super
visor out of tue p oiling place, and up
on bis refusing to go they ordered
the State constables to eject bim, '
which they did. This was at tbe
Mt. Pleasant poll ia this county. At
the Taluietto engine house iu Ward
Three of thjs pity, the supervisor was
severely beaibn by the" Democratic
voters and driven away from the
poiis. Tbe authority of the United
States Marshals waa treated with ut
ter contempt, and to ave themselves
from arrest by the city aad SlV.a
authorities tbey were ompdlod to
refrain frcm exercising any author
ity. "lathis city the Democratic man
agers cf elections crbitrariiy refused
to at least 2,0u0 culored voters tho
ri'jht ti vote. Unless a colored man
was known to one of the manager of
election he was refjed the ri-fot t
voteualesi he could briug wi;ne.
to prove here be rt.-iiled. Many
were turned olTuader tbe pretext that
they were not 21 years of age, or
rather that the managers were doubt
ful of it.
"At tha Uht ssiaioa of the Legis

died last week, at the stables cf hi
master, ia Chicago, of old, ajre. This
horse bore bis master through some
of the most noted battles of tbe Re

of Sheridan will always be that of his
black charger. 'The horse was eiven

A young man of eighteen or twen
ty, a studeut ia a university, took a
walk one day with a prolessor, who
was commonly culled tbe student's
friend, tuch was bis kindness to tbe
young men whom it was bis office to
instruct.
Wbilo they w re now walking to
gather, and tbe professor was seeking
to lead the conversation o grave sub
jects, they saw a pair of old shoes ly-
lug ia tbe path, which they supposed
to belong to a poor man a bo had
nearly Oniibci bis day's work.
Tbe young student turned to the
professor, saying, "Let us play the
man a trick. We will hide his shoes,
and conceal ourselves behind these
bashes, and watch to see his perplex
ity when be cannot Bad them.'
'My dear friend,' auswered the
profi-s.or, 'we tnus nyer imuse cur
eel ea ai tl.p eipenso cf the poor.
Bat you are rich, and may giveyour
eelf a much greater plesure by means
of this poor man. Put a crawa piece,
if ycu have tLeu), in each shoe, aad
then we will hide ourselves.'
The ftudeut, luckily haficg to
crown-pieces, did so, aad then placed
himr'elf, with tbe professor, behind
tbe btjshes hard hy, through which
tbey could easily watch the laborer,
and see whatever wonder or joy he
might express.
The poor man soon fiaUhed bis
wotk, aud came auroes the Beld to the
path where he left bis coat and f hoe.
While be put on bis coat be tlipped
one foot into one of bis shoes. Fell
ing something hard, he stooped down
and fcr.nd tbe crown. Astonishment
and wonder were upon bis counte
nance. He gazed upon the cown,
torsi d it round, and looked again
and again, then be looked round on
all fcides, but could see no one. Now
bo put the money in h.ij pocket and
proceeded to put on the other sbo?;
but what was bis astonishment when
he found the other crown ! His feel
iotrs overcame bim. He fell upon
his knees, looked up to heaven, and
uttered a loul and fervent thaak-giv
ing, ia which be spoke tf bis wife
sick and helpless, and his children
wbo by some uuknown band vyould
be sayed froo pcrbbiojf.
The young man stood there, deep
ly a Heeled and wiib tears in bis eyes.
'.Now, said the professor, "are von
not better pleased than if you bad
olayed your intended trick?'
'Oh ! dear sir,' answered the voutb.
'rou hare taught me a lessen that
will never forget. I feel now the
truth of the words w'oiph I nsvor be
fore understood (' '"It is more bless-
ed to give than to receive."
