It was a tempestaous night in No vember. The carved Dutch ciock in Judge Harrison's room had just struck nine. Judge Harrison bixeel!, an auBtere-looking, eilver haired man, rat upright in his chair, gazing cold It at bis guest. "Well," said Dr. Hooper, pulliDg on his gloves, "of course, it isn't for me, or any cne eke to interfere in family matters. But voar grand child is left totally unprovided for, sir." "I cannot help that," said the Judge frigidly. "Eight years ago I offered to support the child, and her father, too, if he would only consent to leave that outlandish foreign wife ot his. He married her against my will be clung to her against my will Let him abide bv bis own de cision "It's only natural, then, that the man should provide for the child of that wife, Dr. Hooper. At all events I shall assume no further responsibili ty I" "iut, Jodge Harrison, you are a ich man !" "Granted but as I made my money myself, I feel that I have a right to spend it to suit myself !" "Hilda is a One girl," pleaded Dr. Hooper. "No doubt, no doubt, bnl you will pardon me if I feel no great anxiety to see the child of the German sing ing woman who stole my eon's heart aw ay from me." Dr. Hooper hesitated. "Judge," he said, at latt, in a tone of appealing earesmess. "yon have another granddaughter. "I have. My daughter's child, Marian Lenox, makes her home wub me," "And yet yea would deoy a simi lar home to Hilda Harrisoa?" Judge Harrison's shaggy white brows met in a straight, frowning line. "Doctor," said be, "yon fail to make the distinction between a dutiful child and one who has been so undutifol to me." "Let me see Miss Lenox," said Dr Hooper. "Let me interest ber in the fate of this desolate, unknown cousin. She has a woman's heart in ber boaom. I am sure I can move her!" Jodge Harrison smiled coldly as be touched a email gilded call bell which stood on the table beside bim. "Send Mis9 Marian hre," said he to a serract, and the man noiselessly obeyed. In another minute a tall, princess- like girl stood in the room a girl with hair of pale gold, deep, bine eyes.like azure stars, and a dress of soft blue silk that fell in picturesque folds about her, and trailed noiseless ly over the carpet aa she walked. "Marian," said the Jolge, "this is Dr. Hooper. He has come here to plead the case of yoor Uncle Sev ern's daughter, Hilda. Severn de liberately disobeyed me at first in marrying Hidegarde Itoehmer he rejected the ofler I afterward made ot taking him and tl e child home, if he would but leave tke riren who bad blighted all his life. Now be is dead, and has left kis child unprovid ed for. I say, as be rowed, so let bis reckless child reup. What do yon say?" "I think grandpa is quite right," said Marian, in a soft, sweet voice. "Grandpa is always right !" "Then yon have no word to speak for this lonely orphan!" cried ont j Dr. Hooper, deeply indignant, j Marian laid her ringed hand upon that of ber grandfather and nestled close to him. i i j i I i l esta u i 1 a & i , SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY, DEC. 3, 1879.

When he returned to bis on hum bio residence, a dark-eyed girl met him at the door. "Have yoa seen him. Doctor my grandfather?" she cried oat eagerly. Dr. Hooper nodded.. "It's no use, though," said be. "The old man has a hear; like tjran- ite! aad that girl, yea cousin, is cf cast iron. "lie will not take me ?" "No." Hilda Harrison set ber lips togeth er. "Well," said she,; "then I must manage to provide for myself." "No hurry, lass: no hurry," said the kind hearted doctor. "Go tell my wife to bring me a cap of hot coffee before I start out on my trip again." . "Hilda," he said presently, as he sat toasting bis feet before the tire, with bis wife knitting opposite, and Jud,-e Harrison's grandangbter lean ing agaiast the window, and looking out in the stormy darkness, "what are you going to do ?" I don't think I quite know, Doc tor." "You are seventeen ?" Yes, sir." "And yoa cannot teach ?" "Oh, dear, no, sirl" Hilda shook ber bead decidedly. "I bad no cbanca for an education, traveling about as I did." ,;Norsew?" "Not well enough to adopt it for a profession " "Then for all I can eee, there is nothing left but to go into domestic service." "I would take a place to-morrow, Doctor, if I could get a deennt borne an. 1 good wages," said Hilda, quick- "Good," said Dr. Hooper. "That ii the right spirit, child !" I don't fear but what you'll make your way, in one direction or the other. But I can see something a little more prom ising ahead for yoa tban that." "Wbitt is it, Doctor!" "I noticed the way! yoa took care of ytur poir father, lAda, in his last iilnes. I thought thin you woaid make a good nurse if hink so now. There is an opening if i t Frances co's Hospital. A good heme and a doilar a day." "As nurse, Doctor? "Yes, as nurse !" . "And I should get t'Vee you some times f" ! - "Frequently twice a week at the least " Hilda pondered a second or two and then came foreward with glisten ing eyes and red lips apart. "Doctor," said she. "I willtry it." And so Clement Harrison s grand daughter donned the little molin cap, priut dress and white ruffled apron of the St. Francesca corps of nnraes, and set dilligently to work earning her own living. A year had passed by, and Dr. Wallace sent word that a nurse was wanted for a sm nil-pox case in the euy. Abe Sister .superior ot tne St. Francesca's looked dubiously at ber women. "Who will go ?" said she and Hilda Harrison stepped forward. "I will," said she. "I have no fears of the contagion, and I want to add to my experience." bo little Hilda packed her bag and went I The housekeeper of the great Fifth avenue palace was wringing ner bands, half terrified ont of ber senses: the other servants had taken precipi tate leave. And Miss Lenox went this morn ing," said sue "i sDouia tniott sue might have stayed !" " bo is Miss Lenox: questioned innocent Hilda. "The old gentleman's granddaugh ter that be has brought up and petted like a cosset lamb," said Mrs. Hum. Oh, the ingratitude of some folks. And if Juage Harrison should I die" Hilda looked up quickly from the bottles of carbolic acid she was un packing, j "Is this Judge Harrison's house;" questioned Hilda. "by of course it is," answered Mrs. Hurst. "Didn't yoa know ?" I "No, I did not know," Hilda said. But of course it make3 no differ ence whose boute it is." Who are too!" Judge Harrison aeked, hoarsely, as the light foot crossed the threshold. 1 am the nurse from St. Frances ca s. ibey call me Uiiaa." Hilda what ?" Never mind my other name." said the yonng girl, with a gentle au thority that bad come to her lrom months of practice at weary sick beds. "They call me Hilda and you are not to talk and excite your self." "Do you know yoa are running a great riek?" "It is my business to run risks." Three weeks elapsed. The crisis of the dieeaee was past the old man, weaked indeed, sadly disfigured, was able once more to sit up in Lis easy chair, and Hilda, who had watched over him with a vigilance and tend erness which be fully appreciated, was arranging fresh flowers in a vase on the table. ' Hilda," said he, slowly, "where has my granddaughter Marian been all this ume 7" "She went away, air, when yoa were first taken ill. Sbe was afraid of the disease." "Aad left me?" "And lef. you, sir." "There was gratitude I ' be mut tered, hoareely. "And when is she coming back 7" Hilda laid down her roses and looked with pathetic, feeliog eyes at bim. "K. Ac ill nnt Sitnis hactr at all" she answered. "We dared not tell you, before, but but her flight was in vain. Sbe died of small-pox last week." The old man turned away with a smothered groan.

No notice might have been taken of her among the scares of oth ers had sho not inquired tho tvay to the waiting room, and added, "Thank ye, though it's your business lo an swer all questions ! That's all I waul to ask of you and yoa can continue your promenade !" "Going out on the train ?" queried the officer. "Would I lug a big carpet bag out here and stand around in the cold if I wasn't?" she sharply auewercd. ''G 'ing South, I Vpose ?" he que ried as sbe moved away. "'SjtortB away, then !' she snapped, as stio lifted ber satchel. Entering the ladies' wailing room, she fouud the fceoU taken. A portly man, reading a pttper and taking a heap ot comfort, t tcjpisd one of the seats, and bhl.iti c bfure him, the dropped her satchel with an awful thud and said : "Nw you get right outer here.

The more I see of fat men the worce I hate Vra." The fat man had a wifu and two children in there, but be wasn't a minute getting to the door. For the next fifteen minutes the old lady sat very erect and stared around ber, and then sbe started out to get ber ticket, lugging ber satchel on ber hip. A bootblack observed her and called out : "Shell I carry yer baggase wagon, AuntSary?" "Bjv !" she replied as she dropped the satchel and reached for bis collar, "I haven't got any baggage wagon, and in tbe next place I'm not Aunt Sary to anybody 1 If you want yoor big heels jerked over tne roof of this depot you just give me tbe Ieat of Sassl" "Scute me, but don't pinch me so hard," said tbe bov, and be squirmed out of ber clutch and retreated a safe distance to look at her and rejoice that he was not ber son. Sbe walked up to tbe ticket win dow, put down a lot of silver and Eaid : "1 want a ticket to Jackson, and I don't want any talk about it! I know why 1 m going, bow long I want to stay, and who 1 m going to see." Her ticket was handed ber with out a word, and she passed on to the gate and she said to the official there : "Tend right to your business, there is no occasion fur your asking where I'm going or if I'vo got a ticket." "I'iiss on, madam," he replied. "Don't try to flatter mc," Ehe call ed back.

The question bas been aeked why a man smoking a pipe should not be aware when tbe candle is put ont whether the tobacco is still burning. Tbere is, first, tbe point of fact. It may be questioned if any one really finds himself in tbe difficulty suppos ed. We believe under certain condi tions, the doubt may exist. Smok ers are not always large consumers of the weed. They often form a habit of taking very little smoke into tbe mouth and of breathing chiefly through the nose. The consequence is that the "pleasure" of smoking may consist in having someibiog to do, and the sensation of doing tbat something to do is quite as likely to be a matter of seeing as of tasting In cases of this class tbe smoker, be ing deprived of his accustomed evi dence or means of enjoyment, may be distreesed. Of course, it is not al leged tbat a man cannot ascertain whether tbe contents of his pipe are lighted when be happened to be in the dark. Tbat would be sheer fol- Meanwhile tbe experiment, if such it can be called, is well calculated to draw attention to tne economic question how far tbe pleasure of smokinar is generally imaginary. If it be, a suitable substitute for tbe ex pensive cigar and wasteful pipe csigbt be found in some permanent material, of proper consistency, moulded into tbe approved shape. It baa long been a mystery to some smokers now other smokers could systematically smoke bad cigars ; the mystery may be dispelled if it should turn cnt that tbe fames cf tbe tobac co are not even inhaled.

BV THE ARSY OF THE TENNESSEE, , IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. ! THK VOLUNTEER W'LDIKR.-. When the savaiiery of the the barbarism of the clan aud the ia- sanity ol secession confronted the civilization of our century, the ques tion, "Will tbe great Republic defend itself?" trembled on the lips ot every lover of mankind. The North, filled with intelligence and wealth children of liberty margbaled ber hosts and asked only for a leader. From civil life a man, silent, thoughtful, poised and calm, stepped forth, and with lips of victory voiced the Nation's first and last demand : "Unconditional and immediato sur render." From tbat moment tbe end was known. Tbat utterance was tho firj; rest declaration of war, and, in accordance with the dramatic uni ties of mighty events, the great sol dier who made it, received the final reward of the rebellion. Loud ap plause The sildiers of the Republic were not seekers after vu!gar glory. They were cot animated by the hope of plujdcr or tbe love of conquest. They fought to preserve tbe blessiogs of liberty and tbat their children might have peace. TLey were the defenders of human ity, the destroyers of prejudice, the breaker of chains, and in the name ot their future they slew the monster of their time. They finished what the soidiers of the Revolution com menced. They relighted the torch that fell from their august bands and filled the world again with liicht. They Wotted from tbe statute books laws that bad been passed by hypo crites at tbe instigation of robbers, and tore with indignant hands from the Constitution that infamous clause tbat made mtn the catchers ot their fellow men. They made it pos&Ible forjudges to be just, for statesmen to be human, and for politicians to be honest. Ap plause They broke 'be shackles from the lirabi of hlaves.from the souls of mas ter, acd from the Northern brain. They kept our country on the map of the world and our flag ia heaven. Great aptdauie Tbey rolled the stone from the sep ulchre of progress and found there two sngela clad in shining garments Nationality and Liberty. The sol diers were the saviours of the Nation; they were the liberators of men. In wriiioz the proclamation cf independ ence, Lincoln, greatest of our mighty dead, wbo66 memory is as gentle as the rummer air when reapers siug amid the gathered sheaves, copied with tne pen what Grant and his brave comrades wrote with swords. Grander tban tbe Greek, nobler than the Roman, the soldiers of the Republic, with patriotism as stain lees as the air, battled for the rights of otbprs, for the nobility of labor, fought that mothers might own their babes, tbat arrogant idleness should not sear tbe back of patient toil, and that our con o try shall not be a many headed monster made of warring States, but a Nation, sovereign, great and free Applause. Blood was water, monev was leaves and life was common air until onr Sag floated over a Republic without a master anl witbout a slave. Ap plause iben was aeked a question: "Wul a free people tax themselves to pay the Nation's debt?" Tbe soldiers went home to their waiting wives, to their glad children, and to the girls they loved they went back to the fields, tbe shops and tbe mines. Tbey had not been de moralized. Tbey bad been ennobled. Applause Tbey were as honest in peace as they bad Iven brave in war. Mock ing at poverty, laughing at reverses. tbey made a friend of toil. They said: "We saved the Nation's life, and what is life without honor?" They worked and wrought with all the la- bor's sons tbat every pledge the Na tion gave should be redeemed. Ap plause And their great leader, having pnt a band ot inenusnip a girdle or clasped and happy hands aroond.the globe, comes home and finds that ev ery promise made in war baa now the ring and gleam of gold. Prolonged applause. Tbere is another qaestion still. Will all tbe wounds ot the war be healed ? I answer, yes. Tbe South ern people must submit, not to tbe dictation of the North, bnt to the Nation's will acd to tbe verdict of mankind. Applause Tbey were wrong, and that time will come when they will soy that they are victors who have been vanquished br the right freedom conquered them, and freedom will cultivate their fields, ed ucate their children, weave for tbem tbe robes of wealth, execute their laws, and fill their land with happy hemes Applause. Tbe soldiers of tbe Union saved the South as well as the North. Tbey made as a Nation. Appiause. Their victory made as free and ren dered tyranny in every other land as insecure as snow upon a volcano's lips. And now let as drink to the volun teers, to those who sleep in the on known, sunken graves, whose names are only in tbe hearts of tbobe tbey loved and left of those who often hear in happy dreams tbe footsteps of return. Let ns drink to those who died where lipleas famine mocked at want to all the maimed whose scars give modesty a tongue to all who dared, and gave to chance tbe care and keep ing of their lives to all tbe living and to all tbe dead to Sherman, to Sheridan, and to Grant, the foremost soldier of tbe world, and last, to Lin coln, whose loving life, like a bow of peace spans tbe arches of all the clouds of war.

Seldom, even at a presidential inauguration, has the city been so thronged with visitors. The many volunteer organizations from other cities have given tbe streets a martial appearance, carrying the mind bark, not very pleasantly, to the porbd be fore the cruel war was over. It is now contemplated to erect a monu ment to General Hooker, and stcpe have already been taken in that di rection. At a meeting of the society of the Army of the Cumberland, General Bainum, of New York, an nounced tbat a movement to erect an equestrian statue to General Hooker was in contemplaticn, aud tbat he was ia receipt of a letter from Cali fornia to tbe effect that tbat State would turn out its golden ignots to promote tbe movement. Just before bid death, General Hooker, who was a very wealthy man, made an offer of $1S,000 for a duplicate ot the Thomas statue for tbe Soldier's Home at Dayton. What an immense num ber of statues will we have when all tbe generals who fought ia tbe late war, with no les distinction than these, have beca honored ! We are honoring tbe warrior out of all pro portion. Tbe annals of our brief his tory have been the annals of peace, but the stranger who wonid attempt to read cur bistorv ia the monuments of our capital, would come to the con clusioi that we were a more war-like people than the Romans, or than the French during the Napoleonic era. Jefferson, the author of tbe Consti tution, bas but one lii'.le statoe it might belter be called a statuet'e and that was presented by a Freucb Admiral.

We are seizing every opportunity 'to perpetuate the sentiments, and passions, and memo ries tbat have made other continents field.? of blood. Art U instructive. Monuments are educators. We have been prating about eras of peace, and the progress of tbe nineteenth centu ry. Can we do no better tban trans plant in this virgin continent the ideas of conquest that have battle pocked Torope? Give tbe soldier his due, but let as not be hysterical in our honors, nor ignore the heroes of peace. C. A. S What Boyadaln J a past. We have just had a foreign guest at our bouse in whom we were all much interested a yonng Japanese, the son of a gentleman in northern Japan. He bas been ii California more than a year, and came Et with the embassy, pasting some davs with them at Salt Lake City, of which place and its people he says many very funny things. But what we are going to tell yoa now is how the boys sometimes amuse themselves in Japan. He says that on his fath er's place which is on a large plat eau surrounded by high hills is an artificial fish pond. In it are a great many fish of species he has not seen here, tbat are about a foot long and very beautiful in color and form. They are as playful and aa tame as tbe kittens on oar hearths. One of bis favorite amusements was going to this pond and knocking on the edgo of tbe tank with some hard sub stance to make a noise, when every head would be turned in the direction of the sound, and every fin employed in making for him, the fieb expecting some treat from bis band. If, to tease tbem, be threw nothing in at first, but put hie empty hand into the water with his Sogers all spread ont, they would all gather round it and seize his thumb and fingers in their mouths till be had as many fish as he had thumbs and fingers, playfully snap ping and biting at tbem as we have seen puppies do. But this paradise of the Japanese fish was often rudely broken in upon, for it was not kept expressly as a plaything for boys, but was tbe good source which supplied tbe fish fur tbe table. Whenever fish is wanted for dinner, tbe cook goes to tbe tank and knocks, and when tbe poor unsus pecting things swim up to her, she catches such of them as please her, and before they know where they are going, she has tbem in the pot or pan n the fire. This yonng Japanese expreseed ! much surprise at seeing cranberries eaten at tbe table, and said that in tbe mountains of Japan they grow very large and beautiful, bnt are never cooked. Some old man occasionally goes ep to tbe mountain and picks a large basket of them, which be brings on his shoulders down to the town. Here the boys gather about him, and for a small coin porchare tbe right to crowd their pockets with them. And what nse do yoa think they make of this otherwise useless fruit? The boys blow the glowing berries thro' rattan tubes, as our boys blow white beaaa through tin ones. Tbat'a what cranberries are used tor in Japan, where tbey grow in great perfection.

She had a lover who loved ber, and whom sbe loved in return. But after be bad wooed ber, not one year, but three he asked her to marry bim ; and she, anxious to show bar power, merelr answered: "Wait." "I have waited three yean," he eaid, "but at yoor bidding, I will wait one more just one more." Then ho went away and became a soldier, and praise of bis bravery fill ed tbe land ; but tbe lady was piqued by tbe thought that he bad been a hi.) to leave ber for even a year; an ! when he returned she determined t j punish him, though all tbe while rLi 1 loved him well. i He knelt at ber feet, aad took htr j bands in bis, and said : "Lady I have come back to claica 'you for ray wife." i Bat all she answered was : " ait longer; a ptient waiter I. not a loser." "i will wait two yeara longer," I said calmly, "If 1 do cot lose all I . well." Then he left her a?ain Sbe bn.. jiu pid that Le woull plead fur be. . and that she wottM be forced t icnange ber mind; but nw be wi i cone sroue for two lonir vtara no lie lived through tbem she could l '. teii ; but they passed, and again t.- r fcver was before ber. "I have waited patiently," was v. he said. Tbe lady yearned to cast herst.f into his arms, but pride was 6rr. ; wifbiti her. "Wait longer," she said. "No," he aaawercd. ' This ia tL last time. If I wait now 1 will v. a . forever." At this she drew back haug.- ily. "Then wait forever," Bhe answered, coldly. Ho left her without a word. Ail now her heart sank in her hose? She wept bitter tears, and rpen'tv! in duot and ahi-s. Wkea a yets had gone by, sbe could bear bur wo--no longer, and ebe sent her little foot page to ber old lover, bidding hiu bear tbia message : "Come back to me." But the messaja tbe little foot-pag brought was just this : "Walt." Again sbe was left to her sorrow, and two years glided by ; then one mi re ehe bade ber page ride over the mountains to ber lover' castle. "Tell bim I am waiting," she said. Tbe page rode away and ivd- ba k. He stood before his lady and doffed his cap, and repeated tbe mc -sage tbat bad been given bim : "Tbe patient waiter id not a los er." "He is punishing me," thought tbj lady, and for two years longer ph; remained in her castle. Her heait was breaking ber health failed--Bhe kuew death was near. Again she sent her cruel lover t message. "Tell him," she said, "that I ai.i near my end, and that if I wait !o? er before I see him I shall wait in ever." The page returned, and stood be -side his lady '3 chair. Uia eyes wen full of tears ; his head was bent uj, on his breast; he sighed and fci i ois face in his plumed cap. Tbe lady lifted ber wan face. "Speak !" ebe said. "The my sage !" "Alas!" sighed the page; would it were a more tender one." "Whatever it may be, speak ! sbe eaid. "The only message that I have ' replied the page, "is 'Wait forever ! "I am well paid ia my own coiu. ' said tbe lady. "At last I have re ceived all my answers back." In a little while she died, and thej buried her in the old chnrch yard, with a stone at ber head and one at her feet. When spring came there was grass upon tbe grave, aad there also was a new plant strange to those who look ed upon it ; a plant with dark, glos sy leaves, that crept slowly but sure ly along, clutching fast to every rough surface it met. There had never been a plant like that on earth before. Now we call it the ivy bat tbis is what tbo-:e who saw it lor the first time said of it: "It is the lady whom ber lover bade to wait forever. In tbia form sbe ia creeping toward bis castle slowly but sorely. So sbe will creep on nntil she reaches the heart she threw away." Generations nave passed from earth. Tbe castle ia a rnin, covered with ivy, and tbe peasants will tell yoa that it haa crept tbere from the lady's grave, point by point over stone and rock, through tbe grave yard and over gates and fences. Yoa can trace it if yoa choose, tbey say, bat ycu do not try. KeeplBs: ih Boy a tke Farna. In an extended argument aa to the desirability of farmers' sons to stick to tbe farm, the Cincinnati Commer cial observes that there ie a feature in this matter of eons following the calling of their fathers that is not suf ficiently regarded. "The calling of the father may rise to a higher dignity when the sons adopt the business, thoroughly learn it, and zealously and prondly pursue it. Then tbe accumulated reputation, capital and all business of tbe parent can be inherited and preserved by tbe eons. "Tbe old Spartans unden-tood this law of developing an aptness for a given calling in the children. The Germans of olden times developed a rare of warriors on he same prin ciple. "Tbe law of heredity is so broad acd so powerful in its influence that it extends not only to the tempera ment bnt even to tbe tastes. Tbe taste, though like the muscles and reasoning faculties, may be improved by education. Svill the taste or tbe aptness for any calling may now be increased from generation to gener ation. "Then, if we are to reach the bigh- : st development as a race of farmers, we most expect it tbrcugri tne line 01 descent. Tbe oo must inherit tbe fitness of tbe father, and take up tbe calling and business where he left off, and his son after him, and so on. When tbia shall become the castom ia our farming families then shall we see greater stability in society and a higher type of civilization. Every parent has the chief power to bring this work aboat Oor nation i to achieve its greatness in the develop ment of agriculture. Its power at home and abroad is to be established and held thronzh the arts of kas- bandry, practiced by a skilL'nl aad virtuous race of farmera AU then that can be done by the State or tb family to enoble and dignify the call ing, and to entail its blessings and in fluence from father to son, will add to the stability and grandeur of the cation."
