The vonac girl listened with bent head and tightly claRped hands. As Ler grandmother paused she looked np. A woeful chance tad come into the round, blooming face. "Grandma," she said, and ber voice was low and strained, "does any one know of this ?" "Only one your friend, Mr. Stearns, your grandfather's law yer." "And Ralph does be not know ?" "I ao not think he does. ' "01 (tbe young voice was very nkcous) it was a cruel kindness to keep it from me Niw I shall never ba Ralph Ogdea's wife " "Eleanor," expostulated her grand mother, winding her arms around the drooninz figure, "he never need know You can go and see your fathbr. He sftvs it will be the last time he will ever send for you." Drawing herself away, Eleanor looked firmly into the tearful face near her own. "Grandma, I will not bring a taint ed name to him I love. I can never marry Ralph Ogden." Tbat evening Mrs. Hamilton Bent for Mr. Stearns, and the two old friends had a long consultation to gether. The kind old lawyer's eyes moistened as he heard of Eleanor's rrrief. "The scoundrel!" be ejaculated, '-after roinine one life, cmld he not have held his peace and refrained from blighting another T Rut stay," said . he, taking up tbe letter again and reading : "I have fought against the longing to see you, ray daughter, but I can no longer restrain myself. promise you that if you come to me this once it will be the last time you shall ever bear from your wretched father." "This looks to me as though he must be very eick perhaps dy iag." "So Eleanor thinks, and the noble child persists in saying she will go at once to him. brie declares it is ber duty. Poor, poor child ; I see now that this concealment baa been very wronc" "Do not fret, my friend ; you and vonr good husband could not look ia to the future. You did as you thongt best. So Eleanor has written about it to Mr. Ogden ? She is a noble crea ture, and if he is what he orurht to be it will briar him jn the wings of the wind." Tbo next day a heavily-veiled, girlish figure and an old, gray haired gentleman were led through a gloomy corridor, and into a prison cell. Eleanor moved as in a dream She was dimly aware of a long, nar row bedstead upon which lay a pros trate, quiet form. Two gentlemen, a doctor and cicrgvman, were the only otner occu pants ef the room. The latter rose as she entered and came forward, "Is tbis Miss Moore ?" be said, gravely. "Jay cbua, l lear you are too late vour father has been ia this unconscious state for hours." Eleanor gave one long, earnest look into the pale, drawn face wi its closed eyep. This then was ber father ! An icy band seemed to clutch ber heart. Her father ! and dying thus ! "Couraire ! my brave little Elea nor." whispered Mr. Stearna. Wi an effort the girl locked up into tbe old friend's face, as if to gain etreng from his sympathy ; then ehe went steadily forward to the bedside. As Eleanor gazed down at tbe face which retaiued many traces ot the manly beauty which had wen her mother's love, and realized tbat the was indeed bis daughter, all tbe strength and nobility of her soul rose to the surface. Stooping, she laid ber soft band upon his'cold forehead. "Father ?" The pitying tone pro nounced that word eo sacred, and bo wound around the tenderest fibers of oar human natures, forced tears into all eyes. "Father, it ia Eleanor! - your daughter 'can you speak to her?" Tbe call pierced the apathy of death The dying man's eyes opened and fastened upon her face. A wave of bif ,., o0 ju rija Tolce sank, wbue into bis eyes uprsn? a look of eternity as b tried to fiuibb, but with the words "Mr child foreiTe " hie - i j - sad scene. Several days passed, ana do reply had as yet come from Ralph Ogden to the letter Eleanor bad writ ted, aod in which she bad disclosed tbo story, the knowledge of which had, therefore, brought ber such sor row. la it she had told him in a few but tender words tbe pain it gave ber to look forward to a life unshared by bw presence; but though in her ignorance if the disgrace upon ber name, she bad promised to be bis wife, ebe could not, koowing all, expect bim to take borne a convict's child. Still another trouble wrung the poor girl's heart. Before loiig the in vitations to the wed ding would have to be countermand td, aad then tbe broken engagement would be tbe comment of all. She beard in imagination tbe remarks which would be passed, aud shrank from the curious words and looks she knew would follow ber wherever ebe weot. "Had I not you grandma, and my Bible," Bbe taid, despairingly, "I fchouid surely die It id almost more than 1 can bear." Mrs. Hamilton kissed tbe quivering lips, she knew caressel would help woere words would only woujd. Thursday morning arrived, and with it Ra ph Ogden. Instead of the expected letter be bad come himself. Eleanor received bis card, and read tbe peuciled request that she would see bim, aud for a moment a film Cduie before ber eyes, aad all grew drk before her ; then, white as dealb, but very calm, she went down iuto tbe library, where he awaited her. She had always known the intense love of family which had always fill ed the beans of tbe Ouen race, aud of tbeir pride in a name which bad never been sullied by aught dishon orable ; and until a short time before she bad thought she bore a name as tainless as theirs, ow she knew ifferenily. Tbe horary door swung back ou its binges to give entrance to the slender, dark-robed figure which fal- teriuuly went forward. 'My precious Eleanor I" nalpn ex claimed in a low voice, but wun ev erv word distinct and clear, "if I lov- d you when I bade you good bye ue lung month ago, I worsnip you ow ! When I read your letter 1 lost no time in comioz to vcu ; as it uvthing could make you less dear o uie 1 and bebide, ruv darling, all thai you wrote ia that letter I kaew or.g ago."

"Did 1 not tell you Mrs. Hamil ton." said old Mr. Stearns, "that if yuuog Ogden was what he ought to be, bow it would be, how it would end ? I see he is of the right stuff.

It is a peculiarity of the opposition party ia the ortn, ana one that our boutbern oretoern ais- covered to their sorrow at the break ing oot of tbe rebellion, that tbey blus-er out and tait Dig up to ine very point of fighting wben they inva riably retreat into their holes and draw tbeir notes in alter tnein. Tbe Fiiz-Jobn Porter case, will in all probability cune an animated dis cussion wben bis case is properly got before Congres-. Tbe Seiiate milita ry committee re, ort a bill.for the rein statement of General Porter to his former rank and seventy five or one hundred thousand dollars thrown ia for disloyalty to bis country in the hour of its need. This is tbe way the Democrats are goiog to compen sate him for causing the defeat ot the Union armies at tbe battle ot Bull Ran. General Logan dissents from the proposition to reinstate Fuz John Porter to bis former rank, with back pay, amounting to a large sum of money. In tbat General Logan acts the part of a true soidier. Un der tbe circumstances the punishment inflated on Porter for his dereliction of duty at tbe secon ! battle of Bull Ron was very mild and merciful. He could have sayed tbat battle and tbe lives of many a soldier, had be obey ed orders, and moved bis troops as directed by his superior, bat he dis obeyed tbe orders giveu bim, and tbe battle was lost, witn terrible slaugh ter. Had tbe rules of war been rigid ly applied to bim at tbe time, tbere would be no Fiiz John Porter to be Beige Congress aud tbe National Treasury under tbe sympathy of Dem ocrats aud rebs, who have rerx ember ed his act of treachery, for tbe reason tbat it gave advautage to tbe enemy. By his distention ia this cae General Logan earns a fresh need of praise from all loyalists. As soon as the Porter case is con cluded in Congress some descendant or admirer of Benedict Arnold should move for a resolution of thanks for his patriotic services while in tbe United States Army. Tbe tone of the Democratic press the country over and especially here at the capital of tbe Nation, has been unfavorable to tbe Parnell Dillon exploit in behalf of suffering Ireland Tbe Republican press on tbe contra ry, reflecting the true inspiration of tbat party in its sympathy for the op pressed and its habitual encourage ment to tbe cause of liberty and pro gress, bas wiib rare exceptions, ten dered the most cordial welcome to tbore gentlemen. Aud it is a sig nificant fact tbat, while the move ment in Ibis community bas been carefully guarded against the en croachment of partisan influences, its management has naturally devolv ed upon Republican leaders. Tbis will be a bier week for Ireland in uasbiogton leople r.ere are looking forward to tba Yorktown centennial. Most of Governors of tbe thirteen original stales have ap pointed commissioners to represent said states ia tbe matter of the cen tennial celebration of Yorktown, Vir ginia, October 1881. From the pro positions and suggestions which have been made, enoagh can be devised to bave the celebration last one month. One week is to be set aside for the reception and entertainment of tbe French guests; an extensive parade grouud will be laid oat, and festivi ties of all kiods, concerts, &c , provid ed for day and night. A tormul invi tation will be sent to the French government to participate in tbe cer emonies, aod the French Society in New York is now in correspondence on the subject It is understood that tbe desceodents of Lafayette will at tend. A French fiVet aod at least one regiment of French troops are expected. It is proposed to select thirteen ladies, one from each of the thirttea states, who will inaugurate a series of Yourktown tea parties througout tbe country. These ladies will probably meet at OM Point. Va , during tbe cominar summer, and sr range tbe p'ogramme. Representative Goode, bas bad an interview with the Secretary of State; Mr Evartsex' pressed tbe greatest interest in the celebration, and said tbe State De partment would in its correspondence with tbe reach Government, mak a strong point of its importance, and the earnest desire of tbe United States Government, that the French would take an active and hearty part in tbe ceremonies, it seems to be the intention of Congress to help this ceieoration. Public Printer Defrees, publishes statement regarding tbe dissatisfac tion which exists among some of tbe employees of the Government print mar office under his charpe, because tbey are not paid for leeal holidays wneu iney ao not wors. lie says: "As aa appeal has been made to Contrress on the subject, until a law bas been passed directing me to dis tribute tbe public money, to penona tor Bot worsing, tbere will be no holidays in my office at Government expense." Tbe town is still full of live Tndi ans in search of tbeir riabts, and new arrivals are expected from the far West. Perhaps no Indian delegation was ever in Washington whoctme so directly to the point of tbeir peti tioo, obtained so readily what they asked for, were so soon ready to zn Dome as tbe riute delegation, which was bere for only a week. It was a small delegation, being? limited to Chief Winnemucca, Bisson Matchex, a nephew, and Sarab Winnemucea, the "Piute Princes," whose name has frequently appeared ia Western newspapers. Probab'y much of the expedition with which business was dispatched waB due to the fact tbat Sarah Winnemucca speaks English fluently, and there was therefore no need that all communication should be filtered through an interpreter. Tbe Princess Sarah is a power among ber own people. She received an English education at Sao Jose, and in thought, speech and religion she is civilized and Americanized. But she still retains tbe nature aod the in stinct which give ber an insight into Indian character and motives such as no outsider could obtain. Her ideas and opinions are valuable be cause ebe is on both sides of tbe question. For years she bas acted as Government interpreter at tbe agency, and during the Bannock troubles she rendered tbe Govern ment invaluable service by consolidat ing and bringing into camp disaffect ed and hostile Indians. Letters which she has in ber posesMoo from tbe Commanding Officer, testify that under hardsbius in ih-t Geld to itbicb most men would tuccuoib.t-be brought in valuable information aud exercised tbe beat influence over her people. What she askes bere is aa honest agent, wbo shall be the choice of the tribe; and tbat the Piates that hare been sent away may return to the agency. She wants teachers and the means of civilization. She is satisfied with the result of ber interview at tbe Department of the Interior, and goes borne glad tbat she came. She delivered, at one time, five lectures in San Fraocisco, and the reports of them there prove that, although she is not a graduate of a Boston school oi oratory, she bas a good platform presence and a power of expression and manner that was, on occasions dramatic. IUther below medium height, she bas a frank, pleasant manner tbat accords well with the strong, pleasant face tbat lights up as she talks. She has tbe keen dark eyes and the straight black hair ot ber taTe.tutthe tair is piled op in the rear sod banged in front in tbe most approved style, aad the last symptom of the "blanket Indian" is lost in a brown ca-bmere walking dress, with satin trimming and a bunch of red gold at the throat Oa the whole, Sarah Winnemucca is a living refu tation of the argument that an Indi an woman cannot be civilized. Receptions are all tbe go now and will ba kept io full blast until Lent begins. On Tuesday the President had bis second levee. Under tbe di rection of Mrs. Hayes, tbe v nite House bas grown to be a "homely" charming place, anl the great rooms bave a look or occupancy never oe- fore distinguishing tbem. The night was bad, bot tbe weather baa no ei- feet in diminishing the crowd ; the entire lower floor was open, and along the walls, trailing from chan deliers or set in pots, were flowers, vines and tronical plants, with the rich colors of our National standard, mak ing a pretty background for tbe flo ral decoration. Mrs. Hayes is a most remarkable women, aod it is a perfect study to stand and watch ber daring the presentations made on such busy evenings. She has a gra cious word of welcome and a kindly smile for those of high degree as those most lowly born ; as cordial in her gretiog to Sir Edward and Lady Tborton aa to the poor conotrymn aod bis wife who timidly followed in the footstepts of the representative of Her Maiesty. Indeed, if tbere was a difference, it was in favor of the sby, illy-dressed couple, who shuffled along as if uncertain of their r'ght to stand amid tbe glitter and show aod pomp of the world's splen dor. One of the most brilliant bops nt the season was given at tbe National note! on Friday night It was a leap year affair, admirably managed by the ladies, at which the gentle men behaved with becoming modes ty, and bore tbe honors of belleship blosbingly. Ia fact, observance f the strictest propriety was exacted from the dear creatures, none bing permitted to present themselves un less suitably chaperoned aid certain ly not allowed to walk across tbe ball room unattended, or otberwioe to expose their tender characters to comment. Some of tbem had grown alarmingly fragile and become sud denly helpless, demanding tbe most assiduous attention. Their delicate bands could scarcwly hold tbeir hand kerchiefs, and they required constant fanning and a world of waiting on. yet the appetites they developed were by no means so delicate, al though they insisted upon being ta ken to tbeir mothers as eoon as sap per was over. Among tbe many ele gant toilets worn by tbe gentlemen it is impossible to particularize. Most of their costumes were biased and gred in the usual places, with a notable absence ot rnfflas. Tbey were generally of tbe severely sim ple style, without much trimming and all short or walking-length White shirt fronts appear still to be fashionable, and several were gar nished with huge aoquets. collarettes of lace, or neck chains. Many affect ed a urecian bend, and a few more gloves. Tbe toilettes of the ladies were exceptionally elegant, the mu sic good, and tbe sapper, with its fruits, ices and more substantial viands a triumph of the cuisine. Picket. What was Paid for Illinois. The Chicago Tribune prints ao old document of considerable historic interest It is a deed or conveyance of land bearing date July 20, 1773.

KEMISISCE.tCES OF OCNESAL GRANT. I recall my conversation with Gen. Grant about those who held a high place in tbe civil administration of the war, and especially about Lin coln. Of Lincoia th General al ways speaks with reverence and es teem. I never saw tbe Presideat" said the General, "sntil be gave me my commission as Lieutenant General Afterward I saw him olten, either in Waaoiogton or at headquarters. Liu Coin, I may almost say, spent tbe last days of bis life wiib me. I ofteo recall those dajs. He came down to City Point in tbe laBt m jutb ot the war, and was with me all the time He lived on a dispatch boat on tbe river, but was always around head quarters. He was a fine horseman, aud rude my horse, Cincinnati. We visited the different camps, and I did all I could to interest bim He was very anxious about tbe war closing ; was afraid we could not stand a new campaign, and wanted to be around when the crath came. I have no doubt that Lueoln will be tbe con spicuous figure of tbe war, one of tbe great figures f history. He w as a great man, a very great man. Tbe more I saw of bim tbe more this im pressed me. He was incontestibly the greatest man I ever knew. What marked him especially was bis sincer ity, bis kindness, his clear iasigbt into affairs. Under all tbis be bad a firm will and a clear policy. People used to say Seward swayed him, or Chase, or Stanton. This was a mis take. He might appear to go Sew ard's way one day aad Stanton's auotber, but all tbe time be was go ing his own course, aud they wiib bim. It was tbat gentle firmness iu carrying oat his own will, without apparent force or friction, that form ed tbe basis of his character. He was a wonderful talker and teller of stories. It is said bis stories were improper. I bave heara of tbem, but I uever beard Liuco'u use an im proper word or phrase. I bave some times, wben I tear bis memory call ed in question, tried to recall sued a thing, but cannot. I always found him pre-emiuenily a clean minded man. I regard tbese stories as exag gerations. Lincoln's power of illus tration, bis humor, was inexhausti ble. He bad a story or an illustra tion for everytning. I remember as au insuaco, when Stephens, of Geor gia, came on the Jtff Davis Peace Commission to City Point. Stephen did not weigh more than eigbty pouuds, and be wore aa overcoat tbat made bim look like a man of two hundred pounds. As Lincoln aad I came in, Stephens took of bis coat Lincoln said after he bad gone, "I say, Grant, did you nonce tbat coat Aleck Stephens wore 7" 1 said "Yes." "Did you ever see," said Liucoln, "such a small ear of corn in so suoall a shuck?" Tbese illustrations were always occurring in his conversation. "Tbe darkest day of my life," said the General, "was the day I heard ot Lincoln's assassination. 1 did not koow what it meant. Here was the rebellion pot down in the field and starting up in tbe gutters; we bad fought it as war, now we bad to fight it as assassination, Lincoln was killed on the evening ot tbe 14th of April. Lee surrendered on tbe 0i.b of April. I arrived in Washington on tbe 13th. 1 was busy sending orders to stop recruiting, tbe par chase of supplies, and to muster out tbe army. Lincoln bad promised to go to tbe theater, and wanted me to go wiib bim. While I was with tbe Presideat a note came from Mrs. Grant saying tbat she must leave Washington tbat night. She wanted to go to Burlington to see onr child ren. Some incident of a trifling na ture had made ber resolve to leave tbat evening. I was glad to have tbe note, as I did not want to go to tbe theater. So I made my excuse to Lincoln, aod at tbe proper boar we started for tbe train. A a we were driving a!oog Pennsylvania avenue a horseman rode by us on a gallop, and back again around our carriage, looked iuto it Mrs. Grant said : "There is tbo man wbo sat near us at lunch to-day with some other men, aad tried to overbear our conversation. He was so rade that we left tbe dining-room. Here he is now riding after us." I thought it was only curiosity, but learned after wards n was Booth. It seems 1 was to bave been attacked, and Mrs. Grant's sudden resolve to leave disar ranged tbe plan. A few davs later I received an anonymous letter from a man, saying be bad been detailed to kill me! that be rode on my train as far as Havre de Grace, and as onr car was locked be could oot get in. He thanked G jO he bad failed I remember tbe conductor locked our car. but how true tbe letter was I cannot sav. I learned of tbe assaa sination, as I was passing through Philadelphia. I turned around and took a train tor Washington. It was the gloomiest dy of my life." A question was aeked whetber Lincoln's presence was in connection with tbe army direction. ".Not at all," said tbe General, "I mepely told him what I bad done and what I meant to do. I was then making the movement by tne left wbicb end ed in tbe surrender of Lee. Wben I retornod to Washington. Lincoln said, 'General. I half suspected that movement of yours would ead tbe business, and wanted to ask you, but did not like to.' Of course, I could not have told him if be bad asked me, because the one thing a General in command of an army does not know is what tbe result of a battle is un til it is fought I never would bave risked my reputation with Mr. Lin coin by any such prophecies. As a matter of fact, however, my own mind was pretty clear as to what the effect of the movements woold be. 1 was only waiting for Sheridan to finish his raid around Lee to make it. Wben Sheridan arrived from tbat raia, and came to my quarters, I asked him to take a walk. As we were walking, I took ont bis orders and gave tbem to him. They were orders to move on the left and au tack Lee. If the movement succeed ed he was to advance. If it failed, he was to make his way into North Carolina and join Sherman. When Sheridan read this part, he was as I saw, disappointed. His countenance fell. He had just made a long march, a severe march, aod now tbe idea of another march into North Carolina, would disconcert any com mander even Sheridan. He, bow ever said nothing. I said: 'Sheri dan, although I bave provided for yonr retreat into North Carolina in tbe event of failure, I bave no idea you will fail no idea tbat you will go to Carolina. I mean t end this busiuess right here " Sheridan's eye it np, and be t-aid, with eutbusieai : 1 'Toat's the talk. Let us end tte business here." Bat of coarse 1 had to think of the loyal North and if we failed in striking; Lee it would hare satisfied the North for Sheridan to go to tbe Carolioas. The movement, however, succeeded, aod my next news from Sheridan was tbe battle of Five Oaks one of the finest bat tles in tbe war. "I am always grate fal," said the Genera, "'bat Mr. Lincoia spent tbe last, or almos: tbe last days cf h s life with me. His coming was al most an accident One of my people said one day, 'Wby don't you ask the President to come down aod vis it yon V I answered that tbe Presi dent was in command of the army and could come wben be wished. It was then hinted that the reason be did not come was that there bad been so much talK about his interfer ence with Generals ia tbe field that be felt delicate about appearing at headquarters. I at once telegraphed Mr Lincoln tbat it would aive me the greatest pleasure to see bim. and to bave bim see the army. He e.ni at once. He was really most anx ious to see tbe army, aad be with it ia its final stroegle. It was aa im-j mente relief for bim to be away trom Washington. He remained at my headquarters until Richmond was takeu. He entered Ricbmond ana I went after Lee." Improvement or Heavy Horses. From the earliest time to the pres ent day it bas bean a great misfor tuno and loss to mankind that so lit tle attention has been paid to the breeding and rearing of a more per fect aad powerful race of horses for heavy farm aad road work, aod tte use of the city dray and large express aud truck wagon. Poets, from tbe sublime Job down to tbe high-spirited Byron, bave been profuse in their descriptions and praires of the horse for war, the chae, aad tbe course; while histo rians, travellers aad sportsmen have beeu ever eloqaent over tbem in vol umes of prose. Strange tbat the most general! v useful of all tbe differ ent breeds of horses should, with a few exceptions, be iguored aud pass ed by in silence, and so much be written and xpoken of others which, although requisite for special pur poses, aod worthy ot I igb admira tion, have contributed less to tbe benefit of humanity. But fortunate ly a great cbange ia this respect has taken place witbin the past few years ia Europe as well as in America. A numerous society, composed of nobleoieo, the landed gentry, aud aruiers of .Scotland, has recently beeu formed f r tbe purpose of im proving tbe breed of tbeir larger sort of horses Tbis society takes the name of Clydesdale, aud tbat distin guished nobleman Earl Duumore bas been devoting a considerable part of bis '.iuie during tbe past two years to ediiiojr a Stud Biok of tbeir horses, classed alrto as Clydesdale. Tbe firot volume of this has already been pub lisbed, aud the matter for the second is collecting. Euglaud is now zealously follow ing tbe laudable example eel her by Scotland for what bas long been kuown as tbe Sbire and other of ber best large breeds of borses. Tbe Prince of Wales, Etrl Elleemere, and other noblemen are giving no little attention to tbe getting ont of tbeir Stud B.iok, ad tbe wbol landed in terest of the United Kingdom is fast waking up to tbe importance of im provement of this mo.it useful of all their breeds of horses. Witbia the p-tsi three years 200 to 1000 guineas ($1000 to $."000) has beeu tbe coinoi u price ia Great Britain for select beavy horses f -r breeding purpoe-i, aud even 1500 guineas ($7500) ba been refuse 1 'or a few ol tbe very choicest,, wnile 50 to SO gaineas ($230 to $400) is the ordiuary price ot those for larin aud dray work alone. In France, Bel gium, Holland, and a tew districts of Northern Germany, prices have also advaoced considerably, and greater attention is given than formerly to the improvement of tbeir horses, all of wbicb shows the rapidly increased interest in tbe subject abroad. Nor has this matter been neglected in America, particularly ia tbe past four years, during which large numbers of powerful heavy animals bave been imported into Canada and the United States trom Grtat Britain and France, with a few also from Flanders. Tbe Clydesdale breed has been more gen erally preferred for Canada, while the Percberoa and the Norman have taken precedence in oar owa coaa try. For the Percberoa aad Normaa ia America a Si.ud Book was oublisbed iu 1877, by Mr. J. H. Sanders, of Chicago, Illinois A revised edition followed the next year, of 212 large octavo pages, handsomely got up, with numerous Sue engravings. Tbe otject of tbis Stud B ok is to pre serve an accurate record of the males aod females imported from France and tbeir full-ored descendants, po tbat tbe public may not be imposed upon hereafter by unprincipled deal ers palming off tceir iuferior grades for full-breds.
