Mips IV pie Green took off her sundown and fanned herself rigorously with it. She looked warm ; her face was flushed with feeling no less than the weather. She and ter Bister were no longer as youthful as their names suggested. Moreover irritation brings out the lines anil wrinkles of a face, and it is unquestioaabiT irritutiog to be passed over for a slip c: a imag who a aoii baliylace, not one' own flesh and blood at that. 'There they go now !' cried Miss Hosie in an eiciued whipper, flying to the window, and peeping through the crack in the shutter. 'For goodness' sake, don't give Ler the satisfaction of seeing you look at her.' I don't care whether she sees me or not not a rush. That old pink calico on! I do think she might have had the decency to make herself lock respectable, riding out with pa's young man.' Ta'8 young man : Lai a way to put it!' Well, isn't he, for the prcM-m? lie's reading medicine in pa's cilice, I'm sure, and he takes the messages that are left, and tells pa afterward. Tor my part, I think he is bound to be civil to pa's daughters.' 'Well, be is being civil to one of them.' 'Yes. That's the worst of the way pa treats Tilly. It's real urjustto os. Hateful little'piece !' A case of cruel step-sisters, you are thiuking. However, there was no tie either of blood or of marriage in this instance. Pr. Green had adopt ed Tilly, brought her with him when he moved to Woodbridge fifteen years ago. She was a mere baby then, and I tilS W11C WHO Bill! UIIUI, BUM imcu for the child like her own. She wbs a motherly soul, and loved babies. Her own had lelt infancy half a score years behind them. Since her death life had not been so smooth for Tilly. Perhaps the Green girls would have been kind to another person in the same situation, but they certainly made life a burden for their little adopted Bister. Mr. Leonard bs hoped to be l"r. Leonard this time next year drove a fast horse before a Ehinning Dew buggy. It was a bright day, and he had a pretty girl beside him. His ppiritsrose to the level cf the occa sion. Tilly and he laughed and talked in a way that would have driven Miss l'oeie frantic. I specify Miss Posie, because ber sister bad acquired two or three years' additional resignation in which to bear the ills of spinster hood: wall-flowering bad become al most a second nature. But Tilly Ianghed on regardless. She was bappy, John Leonard was the hand somest, the best-mannered, the best dressed young man 6he had ever known, and he had singled her out for his special favor. She was will ing to believe anything of an auspi cious fate. Nor was that the last drive tbev took together. He aeked her all the oltcner when Le saw the 'wicked sis ters,' as he dubbed them, angry. As it proved, be asked Tilly far oftener than was good for her. This was on ly an episode with him ; with Tilly it was the most real experience of her life. John Leonard seldom talked of his plans, but she had mapped out bis career for him. When he graduated in medicine he should become her father's partner, and finally relieve her father of the burden of his prac tice, and then and then Tilly al ways herself shared the air castle with John. This was a long, long while ago before the war, almost; accurately, ftt the very breaking out of the war. At first John Leonard who was an Englishman, escaped the war fever, but gradually the soul of the war clarions 'passed into hit blood.' He must have a hand in this himself. A man must belong somewhere. So he coolly informed lr. Green one day that he had enlisted; be was going to fight for bis shoulder-straps. 'As for my diploma, I'll wait awhile for that.' When be came to bid Tilly good bye, she burst out crying. That set tled the question as to their manner of farewell. He took ber in his arms and kissed her repeatedly. This was desidedly imprudent, although they were only affectionate, brotherly kiss es. Miss Rosie came in as he re leased her. 'Well Matilda Green!' hhe cried, with an intonation that meant anything but well. But Tilly was too heart-broken to extenuate ber conduct, She left that to John, who said good natnredly, 'You'll give me a kiss too, won't you Miss Uosie f Remember you may never eee me again.' And be aclnaliy kissed her too. He wanted to put it out of her pow er to teaee poor Tilly. She had been guilty of the same impropriety her self. Toor Ti.'ly was wretched, after he was gone. But she was bnoyed op by hopes and visions. She bad a brave picture, too, of John, which be sent to her when he was made a lieutenant. Oh, how proud she was when that came ! She felt that she was fighting the battles of her coun try. Sbe never forgot a speech cf John' about improving her mind. Sbe tried hard to find time to do so. Her fa vorite method was the composition cf letters to John, which were never sent, in the course of which she would laborously hunt on; in the dic tionary nearly all the words she wanted to use, to insure their cor rect spelling. She also endeavored to find time to read such literature as was contained in the weekly paper of the household. She read the love stories, to be sure, with an especial zest apart from their purpose as edu cators. They struck a kindred chord. One day John Leonard received in camp a copy of the same paper die Woodbridge Vtrg. It contained a marked paragraph. 'Good gracious!' he said, reading it, 'old Green's dead. How fearfully sudden !' ! His particular chum, lieutenant Phil Ross, was standing by. This gentleman was a cormorant of facts a trait which the thoughtless are apt to confoond with curiosty ; bot I contented that there is difference be tween inquisitiveness and acquisitive nees. Mr. Ross stretched out bis band for the paper. 'Old Green? Ham! ah, yes Dr. Green I By Jore! 'Philbrick Green, formerly of Greenbrier, 'ew York. I knew the man. I bail from Green brier mvself. fco be faas turned np again, baa he? 'Woodbridge, Rack land County, Pennsylvania. An ex cellent place to be buried alive in. Been in Woodbridge, eh ?

The third was only an adopted daughter. She accounts for ray in terest in him. lier motner was a distant cousin of mine. Left a wid ow with three children utterly desti tute. Sewed for a living. Ibe Greens took a lancy to her little Tilly, and offered to take her off her hands. She agreed, rather than let the child starve. The Greens movca away shortly afterward. The last time I was in Greenbrier (I run up tnere every summer to see my mother) I found that my cousin had married a verv well-to-do man too. Her oth er children had died meanwhile, and ehe had pet her heart on reclaiming Tilly. Her husband had made in quiries for Dr. Green, but to no pur pose. He had made two or three moves since leaving Greenbrier, and no one knew where be bad moved last. My coubin was fretting herself sick. I can't say that I pitied ber as much as though she had not given up her child of ber own free-will, to begin with. It always seemed an unmo'.herly thing to me. And here I have suddenly unearthed the girl.' I'll write to her tnu.ber this very day.' 'And I'll write to Tilly,' John add- i ed. He wrote to the mother too ; be seemed so anxious, as Phil said, to have hisCngers in every corner of the pie that Phil waived his rights of precious acquaintanceship, and permitted his friend to make the dis closures to Mrs. Eaton, Phil content ed himself with enclosing a few lines to bis cousin indorsing John's mor al character in that young man's own words. Speedily came the answer. A ve ry incoherent, agitated, short little noto from Tilly, so badly penned and expressed as to bo almost illegible and unintelligible. But John made out from it that sbe was very unhap py, and would hail any change with .Mrs. baton's missive was blotted with tears. Not long afterward arrived the news that Tilly had gone to ber moth er in ureenbner. jodo Dreamed a sigh of relief, lie had learned that Pr. Green had died intestate. His property had gone to bis legal heirs. It would have been bard lines for Til ly, slaving all the rest of her days for those hard task-mistresses, the 'wicked sisters.' The life-long bond age seemed inevitable to John's ex cited imagination. So several months passed. Then John applied for leave, on his doctor's advice, who said he needed rest. It W8S a problem where to spend it. He would have gone to Woodbridge as being the nearest approach to home, hal Dr. Green and Tilly been there. She bad cried when ba bid her good-bve. He did not think that aor one else had shed tears for bis sake 6ince. Poor little Tilly ! Pretty little Tilly!. He had a great notion to go to Greenbrier and look her up. He wanted to find out whether she would be glad to see bim. He went to Greenbrier. He found the decent, tidy little brick-house where the Eatoos lived. He was shown into the parlor. It was impossible not to see that Tilly waB extremely agitated when she came down to meet him. The band she gave to John was like ice, and trembled at his touch. He al most seated her, still holding her hand, and she looked np at him with the old wistful look in her eyes. John was touched. lie always had liked Tilly. And, poor little soul how thin she was! Was it possible that she had only exchanged one kind of bondage for another ? She went out to the front door with him when be left, aud as he saw then in the daylight how pale she had rrown. The little wild rose had lost its bloom. He asked her to take a drive with him for the sake of old times. 'You lock as though you needed the fresh air.' 'Yes, I do not get out often ; moth er is so ailing.' On the evening of the last dav in Greenbrier be made up his mind that he would ask ber to marry him. He had very little doubt of ber answer, poor foolish child ; tor his own part he fancied he was in love with her At all events he ought to be in love with some one by this time. Tilly was almost the only girl he had ever known well. But fate interfered with his inten tion. Mrs- Eaton was so ill that Til Iv could not be spared for five min utes. Sbe ran down just to say good bye. John resolved that be would write instead. He told Tilly he would write. 'And take care of yourself,' he added. She did not cry this time. Persons who take an extreme view of hnman mala.l es would perhaps have said that she looked simply brokan-hearted. When John did write it was a dif ferent sort of letter from the one he bad planned. On his return to camp he was confronted by crisis in his life. A gay party from Washington came down to dance and flirt in the tented Geld in lieu of the convention al ball-room. Of its number was Maud Gale, who, if experience gje3 for anything, should have been an adept in both dancing and flirting. A society girl par excellence, but the first of the type who had crossed John Leonard's path. Sbe had cul tivated fascination to the full extent of her powers, and John fell an easy victim to her practical wiles. He was bewitched. What if her hair were blondined, and ber skin were whitened and reddened, and, her eye brows darkened ? John was as inno cent as a babe about these matters. To him Maud was radiant in all the fresh beautv of vouDg womanhood. Tilly? Sbe'faded"ia his thought by contrast into a mere dull little girl Still bewitched, be became engaged to Maud. He was still madly infatuated, however, when his regiment was or dered into battle a battle which end ed in tbe victor v for bis side, but which left him in way however between life and death. He was desperately wounded ; and poor fellow! and when they Erst told him that the amputation of his right arm was unavoidable, it seem to bim that he would rather die outright A cripple! maimed! He tbcugbt of Maud and her strong, bright beauty with a sickening sensation of unfit ness. He lay at death's door for weeks, Part of the time be was too ill to re cognize any one. Only tbe tender est nursing, the most assiduous care, saved bim. And when he finally opened his eyes to consciousness, up on what assiduous and tender nurse do you suppose they rested ? It waa incredible, tpon wbom but gentle, care-worn, gazelle-eyed little Tilly ! 'How on earth ' began John, and then dropped off to sleep again. It bad U-ea almost a year now since be bar4 Been this dewy wood land rose, lie had only written ber one letter meanwhile, but that letter had been bet heart's sustenance ever since. Sbe had laid it away among certain other memories of ber3 memories which retained tbeir sweetness like withered sprigs of lavender. As the months sped by she made up her mind that sbe would never see John again that he bad forgotten her. This was ber presentiment. But she did not blame John because he had not proved ail that she had once hoed be would : that had been her mistake, but a mistake which had been also her one joy and romance. She called him her good angel. In the dear Hebrew phrase, be bad come to ber as in truth every good friend comes to as as an Acgel of God. During this weary while her moth er died. Tilly found herself without a tie in life. Sbe might come and go as ebe pleased. There was a distinct j desire in her loving heart to do tbe one work for an unemployed woman just then. Bat it was some little time before Ehe gathered courage to carry out ber wish to become a hospital nurse. . The alarming first steo once taken, she went on easily enough. And sbe found an immense pleasure in thus being of use as she proved and of comfort to many Buffering souls. Tbe providence which directs snail matters as well as great, appointed ber duties in a certain ward in a cer tain hospital, wbere sbe came upon John Leonard's white face one day, as he lay stretched on his cot of pain, and sbe realized, wi:b a sudden tum ultuous rush of feeling, that it was for her, humanly speaking, to tend him back to life. She felt as though this satisfaction more than compensated for all that she had suffered loneliness, neglect, disappointment in tbe past. Thore was little romance about Maud Gale. Sbe made some excuso for breaking her engagement as soon as she learned of John's misfortune. She bad little faith in a one-armed man's being able to fight the battles of life successfully. And success meant to her more than affection : one might full in love many times over. John fortanateiy found that the cure for his disappointment lay in the nature of tbe disappointment it. self. 'So weak a thing ! So weak a thing!' So we come to the end. Tilly, con tinuing ber round of blessed dnties, was greatly surprised when John told ber, not many months after that, that 6he was the one need cf his life. Sbe had buckled down to work. When love came to ber suddenly, its voice was as a voice in a dream. But she believed it ob, how gladly! It is so easy for youth to be bappy, to forget ! Miss Gale might have married a disiiuguitibed uiau, after all. Dr. Leonard graduated in his profession immediately before bis marriage to Tilly, and hu name by this time is one that is well known among physi cians. My impression is that no notifica tion of tbe wedding was sent to Miss Rosie and Miss Posie. Mr. Philip Ross was notified, however. He signified his cordial interest and ap proval. He felt, moreover, as though be bad bad a share himself in making the match. But then I have noticed that that is always the way the unimportant important character feels in all the novels and plays. Bazar.. The Pbyelqneof American. It used to be a common remark that Americans were lacking in phy sique, and as a nation they were call ed lank, lean and of too nervous tem perament. But time, with increased comfort, prosperity, better food and clothing, and other concomitants of civilization, has worked wonders for our people. Dickens, who was an unusually keen observer, remarked a vasti mprovement on his second visit to this country in the locks of the people, especially the women. Other evidence might be cited to the same effect. But let each judge for himself. Walk along Broadway or any other thoroughfare when the crowd is den sest ; stand on a packed ferry-boat, or in front of oar large churches or the atres when the audience is leaving. Are not tbe mass of people who pass robust, well-fed and substantial-looking? Do you see many cadaverous, slab-aided persons? Do not they look, on the average, as well as peo ple of any other race ? The fact is, and the statistics of tbe examining surgeons of our enormous army dur ing the war prove it, that tbe Ameri can is taller and larger round tbe chest than his Saxon, Okie or Teu tonic cousin. Dwellers in cities are usually puny. The Londoner, tbe Parisian and the New Yorker are all small men; but tbe Maine lumbermen, the farmers from tbe far West, and tbe men from the border States, are huge, and powerfully-built fel lows. iatetbe initea states senate or the House of Representatives, and how many fine physiques will be found among their members? In tne last tnree cabinets tnere was an unusual proportion of large vigorous men. Chase, Seward, Stanton and Blair were not pigmies.nor are Hayes supporters lacking in bone and mus cle, excepting Evarts and Scburz. Thus it may be accepted that Americans have size and strength sutticient tor their needs, and it is a mistake to suppose otherwise. San- wary Engineer and Plumber. Mob Law. Ci.ncixxati, July 8.

( From oar Regular Correspondent,) Pajus, July 2, 1819. No event, not even the assassina tion of the Czar or Kaiser, could have made a more profound sensation in Europe, than the death of the Prince Imperial has created. The French Republic was, to all appear ances, firmly established, bat the comments of tbe Continental press, and tbe shock created in every Euro pean Capital by the tragic intelligence shows how ineradicable was the idea that the House of Bonaparte would ultimately succeed to the French throne. No positive intelligence of tbe death of the Prince was received at Cbislehurst, the home of bis mother, uutil the morning of June 21st. The duty of breaking tbe fearful news to tbe ex-Empress fell upon Due de Baesano. lie asked permission to see tbe Empress. She knew that the Prince had been very ill and noticing probably from tbe expression of his countenance that he was greatly troubled, begged to know at once all he bad to tell her. He said, "Mad ame, tbe Prince is very ill, more dan crerously ill iban he was when we last heard." Immediately ber Maj esty exclaimed, "I will go to bim ; J must go," to wbicn be replied notb ing, and retired. A quarter cf an hour elapsed, and then be returned to her. He told her that further news had come, which made tbe aspect of affairs still graver. She cried out, "I will go at once ; where is her" lo which he replied, "It is too late, Madame." on hearing which ber Majesty burst into a flood of tears, exclaiming, "Mon Jils, mon pauvre tils J" (My son, my poor son !) The priucipal religious functions relatibg to the death of the young Prince will be solemnized on tbe re turn of the body to England. It is not expected till the middle of July, In addition to the mass at Camden bouse, at whicb the impress was present, three masses were solemn ized yesterday at Chislehurot Catho lic Cburch, at each of which refer ence was made to the event which has filled this pleasant country vil lage witn mourners. A constant pro cession of black-clad visitors from London and Paris passed from the station to the gates of Camden-house and thence across the common to tbe little chapel. The building is with out ornamentation, and it is situated in the midst of tali lime-trees, beech es, and flowering laburnums. With in, the walls are plain, only relieved by the stations of tbe cross in eclored terracotta. The gorgeous rascbai ornamentations have been removed, the satin curtains offered by the Em press, the carpet woven by ladies of France. A few Bowers aecoratea the walls, and there on the altar, where tbe chalice or gold wonsirancu was tbe only ornament Above it the light came through a rose win dow, in which the Virgin in painted glass supported ber child on ber knees. A perpetual lamp was sus pended from tbe roof. The swing ing censer made the air faint and heavy. Within the sanctuary stood chair draped in black, it was one of three reserved for the Emperor, tbe Empress, and tbeir son. Anoth er cnair in tne mortuary cnapei ai the side where, in the gmat marble sarcophagus presented by Queen Victoria, tbe body of tbe third Na poleon reposes, was also draped in black. There were no otber sable hangings. Indeed, tbe altar furni ture was white and gold, for yester day was tbe festival of the Sacred Heart. To-day at eleven o'clock the Black Mass will be celebrated, and will be attended by all tbe household of the Empress. Monsignor God dard said tbe first mass, and after wards proceeded to Camden-house, where a temporary altar bad been erected in tbe Prince's room. A prie-dien was placed just before tbe altar for the ex-Empress, atd she was surrounded by her immediate attendants. Tbe Monsignor returned to the cburch for the mass of the day at H o'clock. At tbe end of the mass be came into tbe sanctuary and went at once into the pulpit. He an nounced that the mass for the repose of the soul of the Prince Imperial would be said to-day at 11, and, after reading this and other notices, be said a few words to bis flock, evident ly unpremeditated, and spoken from tbe heart with much emotion. Tbe parishioners, on their part, were deeply affected. It would be easily understood, the Monsignor said, that bis whole duty that morning consist ed in asking them to pray earnestly for the Prince and for the Princess and for tbe Empress, for the dead son and for the childless mother. In his anxiety about the Prince, know ing tbe dangers to which be would necessarily be exposed by circum stances and by his own daring, he himself wrote to his Imperial High ness, and reminded him that it was the season of the year in which ev ery Catholic approached the altar and performed his sacred religious duties. He added that be was afraid lest in tbe hurry of preparation for his departure this should have es caped his memory. In replying tbe Prince wrote thes? words in French : "I thank you, Monsieur le Cure', for tbe letter you have been kind enough to write to me ; but I am anxious that you Bbould not believe that the bnrry of my departure or tbe care of its details should make me forget my duties as a christian. I will present myself to-morrow morn ing at 8 o'clock to receive for the last time the Holy Communion in the church of Chislehnrst, where I desire to be placed when I die." As yet no news has reached Chisle hnrst with reference either to the embalmment or forwarding of the Prince's body. All that is known is that it will be preserved at once, and without delay forwarded to England; but when this ceremony will take place is not at present stated. It has been stated that when he left Eng land for the war, the possibility of bis death was not left altogether out of consideration it was well under stood that he was bent on no pleasure trip, and that the chances of war might bring him to an early grave and tbe body servant wbom be took with him carried to South Africa the materials for embalming his body in case of any untoward event. Be this as it may, the remains are to be con served and forwarded to Chiskhurst, there to receive at least temporary in terment. la the . St. Loua, July 10.

Half of it belongs to the United States, yet it is not pos sible for an American citizen even to ook at the falls unless he pays at least twenty-five cents I Watkins Glen, New York, is ' a wonderful chasm, wild and picturesque, but the free American citizen must pay 50 cents to enter it. it is bard to fence in Mount Washington, and it has not yet been accomplished, but as the fares are much higher than the mountain the free American citizen may think he can save money by walking to the top. He is mistaken. He will have to pay 80 cents toll to walk up. The Au Sauble chasm is gloomy and grand, but it costs tbe free American citizen 50 cents to see it. The Flume at the Franconia Notch is worth seeing 75 cents worth. The whirlpool at Niagara is sad and somber, at least it makes tbe free American citizen feel so wben be goes there with a party of ladies 50 cents each. The Falls of Mont morency are romantic, historical and beautiful 25 cents admission and 50 cents toll. And thus it goes. If American . speculators ..euU oaj erect a wall along the sea coast so that oo one could see the ocean with out paying a dollar, it is quite likely tbe free American citizen would go to see it without a murmur, and take bis children if they were allowed to go for half price. .-.- Waablnc Blanket. Take half a cake of soap, cut into small pieces, and dissolve it thor oughly in hot water. Pour this into enough of cold water to cover tbe blankets ; and i ounces of borax (pul verized dissolves most readily,) and put your blankets in to soak all night. In the morning take them out and squeeze most of the water out of them and rinse thoroughly in cold water, in which a little borax has been dissolved ; put them through a second rinsing water, then through the bluing water. Do not wring or squeezs them this time, but band tbem up to drain and dry. Tbe easiest way is to take them, while in the last water, under tbe clothes-line, as it is not convenient to carry them when full of water. It is the best not to double them over the line, but hang by ose end or side. Of course you want a nice sunny day for drying tbem nicely, and if yon put them to soak at . night, and the next day is stormy, it will not hurt them to soak longer.' If the wool is very greasy, use more soap and borax. Fine flannels and baby's crocheted skirts and sacqnes are nice wben washed in this way, aud if you use cold water they will not shrink. Vary the proportions of soap and bor ax to suit the quantity of water. I would not advise yon to wash color ed goods in this way, as they might fade.
