In time the sleigh bells' jingle, sharp and clear.
Came to tbe children's ever-listening ear.
And quick they crowded ruunl the fr jjty pane
To watch their father conting home again.
And then ths youngest climbeJ utm a chair
To place the candle lor a beacon there.
His chores a.l d ne, the bargains of tbe day
Told one by one, tiie buol-jack hung away.

I.
For some weeks past the engage
ment between the Karl ot Beauvray
and Miss Milliceut Moyle bad beeo
chronicled in the fanhionable intelli
gence of newspapers, and the mar
riage was appointed to take place ia
July. There were many who con
sidered Miss Moyle a lucky girl, for
Lord Beauvray was not only of an-
oieut family, vuurtg, immensely
wealthy aud well looking, but be was
popular every where, owing to bis
euuuy temper and uprigbtaess of
cbaracter.
Lrd Beauvray bad been merry
witbout briug dissolute. He was tne
oioet irreproacbable of geudemeo,
Ust as bis betrothed. Miss Mojle,
was tbe fairest Cower among the co
quet of pretty girls who bad beeo
presented at court ia tbe same season
as herself.
Miliicent Moyle was a rich heiress
a well as pretty girl ; bat this was
about all that could be said of ber.
Her father, J eph Moyle, a bill dis
Counter ou L to bard street, was a
"new niau" of the city plutocracy.
It was said that tbe peer's relatives
bad been much scandalized oa hear
itig of his lordship's intention to mar
ry the daughter of a maa whose
antecedents were just a little too
misty.
Oue sunny afternoon, just a fort
aight before tbe date fixed for tbe
marriage a brougham wiib a coronet
on the panels clattered up to Mr.
iloyle's business houso and Lord
Beauvray alighted, ghastly pale.
Tbe hall porter was startled by his
anoearance not less than bv the bro-
Jfc-o voice iu which be luqiired it Jar.
) Moyle bad iell.
' Ju.l thru Mr. Moyle uiiar-elf etrut--j

"Whr, what'a the matter ? Not ill
I hope !"
"No, do; ill; bar. I want to tocus.
to you ia priTats," eid Buaorar
hoarsely.
"Sball we go off in the phaetoa ?"
stammered Air. Mjvle, full ot aaea-i
neno.
ao, into your room ; bat let tu
be quite alone," repeated the earl,
and be bim-telf led tha war to tbe
Plumping down iato the arm chair
at tbe writing table, Mr. Marie stared
in bewilderment wbi'e tbe peer cat
djwu opposite and produced a blue
envelops with several black BeaU
Laying; this on tho (able, Bdauvray
placed his haod on it and 1 anted into
tbe Ouancier'a eyes.
"Mr. Moyle," eaid he sadly, "I
have a paioful cimmaoicati a to
make, but I will not beat about tbe
bujb. I Gad that I have n legal
rikrbt to the title which I bear, cr to
tbo fortune which I am asioir."
'b ! what !" exclaimed Mr. Moyle
with a eaep.
"I made the discovery this morn
injf in rummaging through a box of
deeds," coutiuued lord Ciauvray,
whose voice grew ntHadier. "You
know that I inherited tbe till-) from
uy ancle. He was the oldest ot
three brothers. My father, the
youoQeat, died whilst I was a boy,
my tecoud node died a few yearo
later, and we faucicd be nad been a
bachelor, but it appears that he bad
been clandestinely married, and left a
son a lad whom you know, by -the-by,
for 1 have seen bim in your bouse
llis name is Timburel " j
"Timburel!" echoed Mr Mayle,
wiihasiart. "Youog Timburel.wno
oseJ to be clerk in our firm, and
whom I dismissed for preamicg tj
make love to our Millie '!"
"I was not aware of those' par: icu
la's," said Lord Biauvray : "but
young Timburel is tbe 100; be bears
bis mother's name (sbe was an
octree;) and we used to tbiok that be
was the natural sjq of my second an
cle; bu: tiN pirents were lawfully
iarrii'd."
"And do you mean to say that Tim
burel a vulvar, conceited up.-tart,
who is livia on his wi.s at this mo
ment, w ith not a shilling in his pack
ets. I'll be hound do you mean to
say that he has become Karl of Beau
vray ?"
"Not only tha?, but he becomes ab
sulute owner uf all my property. My
por father left me a mere pittance
VTben I have pot Timberel in pos
session of bis oa, I shall have
nothing bat my commission in the
Guards and about three hundred a
jear "
"Come, owe, doa'i aiy sach b b,"
blurted nut old .Moyle, grasping bis
qo? again. It bad jusr, occurred to
bim that Lord Beaorray was hoar
ing.
"Ho wants to find oat whether our
Millie loves bim or his title," reflected
the moneyed man.
But in a moment this idea was dis
pelled by Lord Beauvray displaying
tbe contents of bis envelope a mar
riage certificate and a numbers of let
ters which substantiated tbe story.
Then be entered into explanations
It seems that his uncle, tbe Ion. Col
de Vray, being in garrison at Malta,
bad privatelv married an Italian ac
tress named Timburelli. After
rear's anion this fickle person desert
ed him, leaviog ber child to his care,
acd soon afterward ebe died. Uuder
the circumstances tbe colonel, though
he provided for tbe bjy's mainteu
aoce, deemed it convenient to couceal
his marriage, and eventually he died
roddetjly without having acknowledg
ed it.
Apparently, however, his con
science bad tormented bim, so tha:
while lacking tbe moral cnurage to
ppeak tbe trutb during bis lifetime, he
bad left evidence bv wbicb it might
be known at er bis death. Lufortoo
atelv the envelope containing bis
marriage certificate bad lain mixed
tip witb some other documents in a
box which Lord Beauvray (who in
herited tbe deceased's paper) had
never tboueht of examiniog until that
morning, when he bad begun to sort
bis family papers in view of his mar
riage.
Suddenly tbe bill discounter crom
pled all tbe pipers ia bis band wi h a
feverish grasp, and looked at L-rd
Beauvray. There was ao expres-ioo
iu bis dull eyes as of alight bebiad
an 03clea.oe.ed pane of gla;?.
"I say," he whispered, "have you
told anybody besides me of this se
cret?" "No, I came to yuu first, as ia duty
boud."
"Tbeo what prevents m from de
stroyiog these papers ? I shan't say
anyibiug about it. That youog
Timburel is a skunk and a snob ; it
will be ridiculous to see bim a Lord,
and he'll ruin himself, or become mad
with conceit so foolish is be. I say
Beauvray, if I tbrow'tbis envelope
into the fire, who will know anything
ab-im v.l"
"I shall," answered Lord Beau
vray quietly, aod he held oat bis hand
for tbe papers.
Tbe sbiftT glance of the moneyed
man quailed in tbe light of unquench
able boueety in that une who happen
ed to be a nobleman in sometcicg
more tbaa tbe name.
II
There was a pretty hubbub ia so
ciety wbea it became koown that the
Carl of Beauvray or George de Vray
a he aow simply called himself was
goiag to abaudon bis title and es
tates to a maa who bad been a city
clerk.
Of coarse, George de Vrsy's mar.
riage was postponed. Tbe turo ia
bis fortunes had tbrowa ao much bus

sible be could devote a month to
Honeymooning until it was all dis

bihty tf George's action, which eve
rjoody was prating.
Nowthere was atayiag at tbe bouse;
of the Moy lea' a poor little cousin cf,
Millie'?, named Gertrude Drown,
She was a erfc frpd brune'tee of 13,
very quiet and lovable, who ailed
a companion to .Milli, and bad to
bear much from tbe whimisral he
ni'ors of this sp ,iled child tturtie
bad always received raarkt d kiaducss
from Lird Beauvrsy, who treatea
ber as if she had been bis bister ; aad
she looked apin bim with admiration
as the inosr. noble being she h1 ever
been.
Ilisruitinciatijn of rank aad wealth
bad struck her as an act of surprising
heroism, and she could not so mucb
as allude to it without tears gushing
from her eyes.
A ohrewd, merry H: tie tuiag, tv, j
in ber wav, sbo was capable ot dis
cerning ttie diuereuce that rxis:ed be
tween a genuine man of honor like
Lord Beauvray and a mere man uf
money like ber uncle Moyle.
It was this eathu-)ia)of poor Ger
tie Brown's on poor George do Vray 's
behalf that bean to make the cup of
Mr. M.yle's bitterness overt iw.
Toat worthy gentlemaa had taken to
musing that there was an end now to
bischtneesof sitting in 1'arliameot,
getting a barouetcr, and all that sort
of thiug.
Poor Gertie held her tongue, al
though ber heart throbbed W'fu!ly.
ibe had heard that the Dew L ri
Beauvray, the ex-Mr. Timbarel, bad
been invited to dinner on a certaiu
evening; and she began to soxprfct
thai lo-r precious uncle was f irming
a plan fjr niakiog this former clerk
of bis a suitor fjr M'.liie's baud.
Her intuition was not at fault
Old Moyle hastened to make peace
with his di.-charged clerk, whose van
ity was easily tickled.
He became a regular visitor at the
bill discounter's, taking care never to
come at times when he was likt-Iy to
meet George.
His visits displeased Gertie IJrowo,
oli; tie easily succcuocd tu wianiotr
tbe favor of tbe di.-c motor's dauttb
ter, wh j c. .rrecp indiogly lessened her
liaiog for George, and one day when
she caat an u?-p?rsion up in him, which
Gertie could cot help resentiag, g'ie
screamed :
"If you are so fond of Mr. de Vray,
why don't you get him to marry you?
Ttiat wuuld be two becrars togeta

Naturaiiy, Gertie wea: to herroim
to have a g'jod cry, but from that diy
she cea-t-d ppeafctasr ab iut George,
aad became very circumsp&e'. ia ter
demeanjr towards hiai. When he
called to see Millie, &he left toe room
George soon noticed thece tactics, f r
his interviews with Mr. Moyle's
daughter were growing more and
more irksome by reason of Millie's
cildae-s arid irritability.
At the least tfaiag, she would snip
andsu!k: aad uce afternoon, wbeu
Geurge innocently made s me inquiry
abut Miss Brown, she flared up iu a
jealna pet.
"I -u seem very anxious about
Miss Brutvn I am not obliged to
show ber off in tbe drawiuir room
whenever visitors come. She is only
a pauper cousin wbom we Save taken
in from charity."
"It's queer charity, dear, if yoa
talk of it in that way," laogbed
George "I don't, consider poverty a
disgrace, either."
"No, bat it's very inconvenient,"
said Millie, still querulously, "aad
that ream ds me: if we marry, I pap
pose yoa don't mean to live on m?
money ? Papa says his batiks might
break and all sorts of things. So I
suppose you will do something to get
an itdepeodent income "
"Yes," answered George, coloring
deeply. "I have applied fur an ex
change into the line, aod think of go
ing oot to war on tbe Indian frontier.
I shall have a Lieutenant Colonel's
rank 8 if yoa wait fur me two
years, Millie, I will return with a new
career, and, perhaps, an income before
me."
' Op, wait two years to become a
soldier's wife, aud go out to live io
bating Iodia bea;!" exclaimed Millie,
pouting; "I never bargained for
that!"
Jtirt at that minute Gertie Drown
came io. Sbe had a message to de
liver to Millie from Mr. Moyle, and
she blu-hed as she crossed tbe room
where the pair cf quarreling lovers
sat.
"Ms Brown," said George, ruing
to shake bands witb her, "1 wist) you
good-bye, f r I have just been telling
.Miss M yie tnat. I am gJiag to th
war in lod:
"Yon are going to tbe war ! Ob,
Mr. de Vray if anytbiog sh iuld
happen to yon !" exclaimed little
Gertie, aad the tears started to her
ey es.
"Thank yoa fir thjse tears," said
George, gratefully. "I shall know
that one person here, at least, will
teel aa interest. Now give me as a
keepsake that red book-marker yoa
are holding ia yoar hand. 1 will
bring back the ribbon with something
hanging to it."
"lbs ictona cross, perhaDA," tit-
te-ed Millie, rather uncomfortably.
"I declare that's quite poetical. Yjell,
gnod-bye, Mr. de Vray; we part as
frieuds, don't we ?"'
''Excellent friead-i," answered
George, as be lifted bih her hands
to his lips, and kis.-ed them plavtal-

One year passed. There bad been '
a triuuipb ot the Britirh arms ia In
dia, aod tbe name of Cut. de Vray
was associated with it. His name
was iu every body's moutb. He had
received promotion and other honors,
and was returning lo England af er

As for Millie Moyle t-be was be
trothed to tbe Earl of Beauvray, and
when Sir George arrived ia London
oce of tbe first things he read ic the
paper was that tee marriage between
this yooag lady and bis cuasin was to
take place in a week.
He do longer cared now.
He went to Mr. Moyle's house on

WA3aiSGio.f, Feb. 3, 1S30.
There has long been a necessity for
an increase of the capacity ot the
highest judicial bench ot the Govern
ment, and the bill introduced by Mr.
Manning to increase the U. S. Sa
prerne Conrt to twenty-one jadgee
has becomo a subject of general con
sideration with the legal profession &f
the country, and has received tbe ap
proval of many eminent lawyeri. It
ba3 become iodispcnsible to extensive
business interests ti expedite the
work which has accamuUted before
the Supreme Court. Prominent at
torneys in Washington and in other
cities say tbey have cases before tbe
Court tha. cannot, wiib the present
organization of tbat body aad ia tbe
regular order of business, be reached
io less than five years. That of it
se'i is suHicieot to induce Congress to
provide some remedy. How many
persous are there ia condition to wait
live vears for justice, after having
borne the expense aud tedium of
lighting their causes through the
lower courts? It is reasonable to
suppose tbat maay caiM are abaa
doued by tnose wi- have law aad
equity oa their sido rather tbaa wait
for a decision by the court cf final
resort. Tbe Manning bill proposes
to increase the court to twenir-one
judges aud to subdivide il into three
sections, or suo-cbambers, each con
sisting of seven judges, including the
oue presiding. There shall be a chief
justice and two associate or assistant
chief jaatices, who are to preide over
tbe tbree sub chambers. One of
these sub-chambers shall have juris
diction over eqoitv causes, aod tbe
other over admiralty and causes ia
which tbe Luited Mates is a party.
Tbe decisions of sub-chambers must
be submitted to aad passed upon by
the full court. This is to comply
with the provision of tbe Constitu
tion to the e'lect that there shall be
"one" Supreme Court. The sub di
visions are for the purpose of fat li
tuing business. Another idea cf the
author of tbe bill is tbat it will in
crease public confidence in tbe Su
preme Court, and add to the respect
of its decisions, to increase iu num
bers eo that it can be "nationalized''
by having all sections of the country
represented upon the bench. The
t velve additional judges proposed in
tbe bill would be appointed as those
now oo the beucb by the President,
"by aod with tbe advice aad consent
of the Senate." Parties who become
involved ia litigation wi:h corpora
tions frequently suffer because ot the
iuaoility of the Supreme Court to
dispose of the busiaess that comes
befjre it. Corporations employ at
toraeys by the year, and, therefore,
they fight causes to the last. An in
crease of litigation does not cost tbern
any iacrea-e of expense ; but it is
different with the individual who
must pay as be goes, aad to wbom it
is a great burden, perhaps, to follow
and appeal to the Supreme Court.
L"ule.-s there is a large amouat in
volved the corporation often escapes
by simply carrying tbe cause up to
the highest court. Tbe aumber ot
United States circuit judge was in
creased some time ago, and their ju
risdiction enlarged with the view ot
relieving the pressure upon the Sa
preme Court, but tbe effect was the
very reverse of what was anticipated.
The increase and enlargement of the
lower courts ooly added to the cases
sent to the Supreme Court. Where
tbe stake is large enough to warrant
tbe outlav persons will insist npon
having tbe decision cf the court of
tiaal resort. Coogress and tbe bar
now realize this, and tbe object is to
give the highest court power and
facilities for disposing promptly of
tbe basinet that comes before it.

A day or two ago a woman enter
ed a telegraph office and said to the
receiver cf messages tbat she desired
to telegraph her husband, who was
ia Chicago, for money. He pointed
ber to tbe , counter supplied with
blanks, aad told her tbe rate for 10
words S&e straggled away for a
quarter cf an boor, aod then baaded
ia ibe following :
"Won't yoa please send me $10 by
next mail ?''
"1 don't kaow whether that will
do or not,'" sbe said, as she felt for
ber money. "If yoi were to receire
such a dispatch from your wife
would your forward ber the money ?"
"Well well, I might," he replied
in doubtful tones.
Now, you wait ! I don't like the
dispatch at all, because I tried to
keep it within 10 words. I'll write
another..'
Sae tore il op, walked over to the
counter, aad in tbree minutes hand
ed ia a new one reading:
"Am out of food and fuel and want
ten dollars as soon as yoa caa get it
here. If you can't spare it I spout
the parlor carpet
"Tnat would bring the money from
me," said tbe receirer, as he read
the lines aod marked tbe number of
words.
"Then I guess it will f:om him.
Send it along, aad if I don't get the
money ineide of two days you'll hear
somebody ripping op forty yards of
Brussels carpet off the floor !''
A nice young man in TViiliaisburg,
New York, was attempting to make
a mother-in-law of a certain lady,
who did not see it hecaase her daugh

aod the candidate for son-in-law, be
iug summarily bouced, went under
the window cf the girl one fine moon
light night aad threw gravel at tbe
window nntil the maiden appeared ia
a most Juliet like manner, aod the
couple were proceeding to have a
good time, when the mazzleof a joak
shop masket protradea from the low
er window, and the enraged parent at
occe scooped ia tbe lover, and had
him before the police court the next
moroiog, wbea the following scene
was enacted to a delighted aadience :
"Jedge," said the mother of the
heroine, "that there casa has been
sparking rf my gal, when all the
time she's got another hneband oot in
Illinois. - "
"I ain't," from the gal.
"Yoa is," said the mother.
"I ain't carin'," said tbe prisoner.
"She's my gal, aad no Illiaois has
band ain't a goin' to get ber 'eept ha
