"O dcarct maid ! to win thy love My body in the dust I'd humble; Canst understand such love as mine?" She whkperod beautifully, "I tumMe !" A yielding glance from her dark eye Cave to my passion full excuse ; I snatched her to my heart, and heard, "You're just too cute for any iuc!" I preswd upon her willing lips -A kiss that nearly drove me crazy ; And, as the ovulation ceased. She murmured, gently, "That's just a daisy!" Put "O," she cried, "I hear my. ia !

MiJniglit was ast, and the lights k of the vessels lying at anchor in the stream were legiuning to be extin guished, when two men hurried iroui dilTi rent directions towards the shore. The older of the two had already reached the strand, and was prepar ing to make a leap, Ihe designs of which was not to be mistaken ; but at that instant the younger one seiz ed him bv the arm exclaiming, ''Sir, I ltelicve vou want to droirn your self!" "You have suesscd iL What is that to vou?" This was the answer Fjtoken in an angry tone: "Nothing 1 know. I would sim ply request you to wait a few min utes when if you like, we will make the journey together, arm in jirm the lest wav of dvinr." With these words, the younger ex tended his hand to the elder, whose was not witheld. The younger continued in a seem ing tone of enthusiasm : '"So be it ! Arm in arm ! Truly, I did not think a human heart w ould beat with mine in this List hour. I will not seek to know who you are an hon est man or a villain. Come ? let us lx-gin the journey together !" The elder man held the younger back, and fixing his dim, half ex tinguished eyes upon the counte nance of his companion, exclaimed : "Hold 1 You seem to me to be too vounr to end vour life bv sliicide, A man of your years has still a bril liant, alluring future in his grasp." " hat have 1 to hope lor in the midst of a world that is full of wick edness, falsehood, treachery and un happiness ? Come ! quick 1"' "You are still young. You must have had very sorrowful experien ces to make life already thus insup portable to you." "I despise mankind." "Without exception ?" "Without exception." "Well, then, you have now, )cr haps, found a man whom vou will neoessariiy despise, I have, believe me during my whole life, lived an honorable man." " lleally ! that is highly interesting. It is a pitv I had not earlier made your acquaintance." "Leave me to die alone, young man. Live on. Believe me, time heals all wounds, and there are men of honor yet to be found. "Now, if vou take this view, why are you hurrving so fast from the world 1" said the young man. "Oh, I'm an old sickly man, una ble to makea livelihood : a man who cannot, will not sec his only child, his daughter, blighting her youth and laboring night and day to sup i ort him." Now, 6ir, Lave you a daughter who does this lor you asked the young man, surprised. "And with what endurance, with what love, docs she sacrifice herself for me. "And you want tooommit suicide ? are you mad : "Shall I murder my daughter ? The life which she is now leading is certain death " answered the old man, in a despairing voice. "Good sir, come with me to the nearest inn that is yet open, and let us drink a bottle oi" wine together. You will relate to me vour history, and, if you like, I will let vou hear mine. So much, however, will 1 6ay to you beforehand ; chase all thoughts i sell-murder out of your mind, 1 am rich, and, if things be as you sav, from henceforth you and your daugh ter shall lead a pleasant life." The old man followed the young er without opposition. A few min utes later, over full glasses, the elder began: My history is soon told. 1 was a merchant's clerk, but al ways unlucky. As I had nothing by inheritance, and the young girl I married was !oor, I was never able to commence business on my own account, and remained to an old age in a depend ent subordinate position. Finally, I was discharged on account of my years, and then began a struggle lor subsistence. My wife died of trouble, and now my poor child is wearied to gain my support. I can not bear to see her work herself to death for me therefore it is better I go. Now you know all." xricno, exclaimed the oung man, "you are the most fortunate man I ever encountered in my life. It is insane to call that misfortune. Nobody is easier to help than you. To-morrow I will make my will, and you shall be no resistance! my heir. The coming night is my last. Jieforelhis, however, 1 must see jour daughter, out of mere curiosity. I would for once see Low one looks who really deserves the name of wo man." "But, young man, what can it be that makes you so unhappy thus early ?" questioned the elder, much moved, "I believe it was the wealth my father left me. I was the only 6on of the richest banker in this "city. My father died five years since, leav ing me more than was good for me. Since that time I have been deceiv ed and betrayed bv everyone, with out exception, with whom I ever Lad any connection. Soino Lave pretended friendship for me on ac count of my money. Others Lave; pretended to love me again for my i money; and it went on. I often i mingled in the garb of a 6imple workman, with tne masses, and thus one day became acquainted wiiu a cnarmmg nemg, a young girl, to whom my whole heart soon went out in love. I disclosed to her neither mv name or my position. I longed to be loved for myself alone, ana for a time it appeared as if I was going to be happy at last! The young girl and I. whom she still regarded as a 6imple workman, met every afternoon in the Marcus- platz, where we walked up and down together, passing many happy Lours. One day my dear girl appeared with red eyes she had leen weeping and told me we must part; confess insr that her lifebcbnjrcdto another ! With these words eho tore herself from me and disappeared in the crowd. Her faithlessness decided my destiny. Vainly did I rush into the pleasures which so called "good society" has to offer, but found my lost peace of soul never, never! I then determined to brin.r my joy less existence to a close.'' "Unhappy young man," said the elder wiping his eyes; from my whole heart I pity you. I must ac knowledge that I was more fortunate than you : for I nt least was by two women my wife and daughter tenderly loved." "Will you give mo your address, kind sir, that I may convince my self of the truth ol your story ? It is not exactly mistrust, but I must see to lielieve. To-morrow I will ar range my affairs as I have already told you. You will remain at this inn to-nisrht, and in the morning I will return. (Jive me vour word of honor that you will not leave this house until I come back, and that you will not, in the meantime speak to any one of what has taken place between us." "You Lave my word. Go to my dwelling, to my daughter, and you will find that I Lave told you but the simple truth. My name is Wil helm Salm. Here is my full ad dress." With these words he .handed the young man a paper, giving the ad dress of his house. It lay in a suburb inhabited by the poorer classes, at some distance from the city proper. "And my name is Carl Teodor," said the young man. "Take this bank note ; it will serve till my re turn." Carl rang for the waiter, had the landlord called, commended the old man to his care in suitable terms and left the house. Hardly had the n r:iing broke when Carl found himself on the way to the suburb where lived, the daugh ter of the old man with whom he had become acquainted under such peculiar circumstances. It was a jvoor place. The younsr man knock ed opened the door, and involuntari ly stopped back. " What did he see ! The young giri whose inconstancy had made his life a burden unbeara ble stood lefore him ! She had grown pale very pale ; but he knew Lor at first glance; it was liertna, wuom ne naa once hoied to call his own ! At Lis appearance, the young girl sprang toward him, overcome with iov. holdinc out her little hand The young man waved her back say inr. You did not expect to see me?" The poor girl sank into her seat, and covered her pale, beautiful countenance with her rale hand "Are vou Wilhelm Salms' daugh ter?" asked the vounz man coldlv after a pause. "I am." answered the maiden timedlv. "And who, and where is that other, to whom, as you told me at parting, vour Lte belonged "That other is my father," answer ed the young girl, looking up to the young man with a glance in which snoke the tenderest of love. With lishtnins quickness the truth dawned upon him, the scales fell from his eyes. Speechlessly he rushed to Bertha took her in his arms, and pressed her to his breast. "Come to your father !' ho falter ed. "My father! Oh heaven! I forgot where is he? He has been out all nishL I have watched for him in tears the long night through." "Your father is saved. He is witl me," was Carl's answer, as he bur ried the young girl out, and through the streets to the arms ol her lather. A fortnight later, in the midst of great splendor, the marriage of the rich young hanker, Larl leouor, to Bertha calms, took place. Jeff. DavU's Account of His Capture. FUOM HIS BOOK. My horse and those of my party proper were saddled preparatory to a start, when one of mv staff, who had ridden into a neighboring vil lage, returned and told me that he had heard that a marauding party intended to attack the camp that night This decided me to wait lone enough to see whether there was any truth in the rumor, which I supposed would be ascertained in a lew hours. Aly horse remained saddled and my pistols in the hoi 6ters, and I lay down, fullv dressed, to rest Nothing occurred" to arouse me until iust before dawn, when my coachman, a free colored man, who faithfully clung, to our fortunes, came and told me there was firing over the branch, just behind our en campment 1 stepped out of mv wife s tent and saw some horsemen whom I immediately recognized as cavalry, deploying around the en campment I turned Lack and told my wife these were not the expect ed marauders, but regular troopers. She implored me to leave her at once. I hesitated from unwilling ness to do so, and lost a few pre cious moments before yielding to her importunity. .My horse and arms were near the road on which expected to leave, and down whi tne cavairy approaenca. it w. s therefore impracticable to reac li them. I was compelled to start in an opposite direction. As it was quite dark in the tent.

At the recent exhibition of .the New York Decorative Art Society, some of the ideas presented were very pretty, and will interest the readers of The Herald : A portiere of gray blue velvet, with silver lights, has a Japanese embrodiery of gold thread, with a dodo of rich crewel work. Mrs. Hoyt's large piece of Wat teau tapestry has a piping swain, with shoulder-knots, posing for the benefit of a jaunty maiden, upon the border of a summer brook. A second Strephon, with fishing rod in hand, is in the ac'.of receiving an envenomed dart from Cupid on the wing. In the rear is seen the fa cade of a chateau, with two sentinel peacocks, .conventionally drawn, in a thicket f roses another love lies dreaming. The ground of this work is canvas covered with close crewel tstiches, the figures partly worked in sikr. A good idea for inexpensive cur tains is suggested by those made of gretn-brown canton flannel, with a vine of autumn leaves applique in different colored stuffs. A contribution from "Norway," of coral and seaweed, embroidered on olive satin, is among the noticeable exhibits. A screen oi olive velvet is worked with sunflowers in silk and crewel, and is framed in mahogany. A curtain of sage green . satin, has a frieze of light blue satin over which stray long trailers of the t ie matis, or virgin base is a mossy chenille and silk, ferns and llowers. Two. or three Holmes' realistic 's bower. At the bank, worked in from which grow panels of embrodiery Mrs. have been retained to grace the present exhibition. The peculiarities Jand merits of this lady's work have been too recently discussed to need espe cial mention. Cases containing draw work on linen and outline work in silk, to gether with other 'dainty morsels of needle work, attract numerous visi tors. Beautiful varieties of the old Italian dunto tirato, so framed dur the seventeen century, are imitated on the pulled threads of tine linen, in some cases interwoven with strands of amber Bilk. Displays of linen cambric arc bordered with a lace grounded in this substantial fashion on the threads of the stu ff itself. They are then worked in outline with ilowers, ferns, and grasses in silks, incredibly fine. The cover for a baby's carriage is of ivory satin, with an outlined cherub's heads, and a border of ivory cashmere, with traceries of silk. A tea-cloth has cuns and sauces jug and teapot of old Nankin blue outlined between the drawn-work border. A design of maize silk, outlined on lineu has conventional leaves in a continuous patttcrn. Watteau figures are outlined in blue silk upon a linen tea-cloth with good encct. Some of the designs submitted for competition are full of spirit, among them three dancing figures, suitable for the panels of a screen, t riezes, curtain borders, etc., line the pas sage way leading to the rare and beautiful exhibition of antique era broideries of this loan collection. Elephant Playing 'Possum. "There are some very cunning fel lows among our twenty elephants," said Mr. Dirrand, liarnum s agent. the otherday. Not long ago Chief tain and .Mauarie, top mounters in the pyramid, and the most cunning of the flock, suddenly took a chil ling spell at rehersal. The keeper sent out and bought four gallons of whiskey, which the monsters devour ed rapidly and with great relish The bill came to Mr. Barnum whose strong temperance predelcctions you know. Alter paving the bill Mr. Barnum insisted that no one in his employ, not even his elephants should uruiK wnisKey under any circumstances. In a little while the elephant, when the effects of the liquor had died away, commenced shivering again, and apparently had another chill, ihev looked long ingly at the keeper, and attempted to caress him with their trunks, as much as to say, 'Give us another drink.' The keeper shook his head and told them positively, 'No.' Ia five minutes every appearance o ague had vanished, and the animals were quietly eating Lav as usual, They Lave evidently been 'play in 'possom.' Lack of Air. Some workmen think themselves " tired " when they are only poison cd. They labor in factories, breathe air without oxygen, and live in an atmosphere of death. They are, too often, allowed to smoke, and thus add fuel to the flame which is con suming them. They knock of work " tired " and listless, when they are merely weakened by foul air and made dull and heavy by an atmos phere" charged with disease. They keep the windows shut and close the door on health, while they lift the grating of the tomb by breathing and rebreathing the poison from their own lungs, and the floatin particles of matter about them. Open the windows let in the sun shine and the breeze, stop gmokinsr. and you will soon find that it is the poison of confinement, and not labor, that weanes and tires. Slonutaln Mahogany.

A Death-Bed Confession. The people of Princess Anne, Cris field and other parts of Somer set county, Md.. are greatly excited over the reported confession of a woman who is now on her death bed of having murdered a man eighteen years ago. Two negroes were executed for the crime in 1800 The murder occurred some time during tho. latter part of 1802, the victim being Asariah Dougherty, who was found dead in his store. As was then supposed, his money was the incentive for the crime. Suspicion rested upon two colored men, who were arrested soon after the murder was perpetrated, but no money was found in their posses sion and none could bo found about the premises of Dougherty. It was generally supposed that some other party or parties were accessory to the crime, but time failed to unravel the mystery and the men arrested were soon placed on trial for mur der and found guilty and sentenced to be hanged. The evidence upon which they were convicted was purely circum stantial, all efforts to show directly that they committed the crime hav ing tailed. The strongest evidence connecting them with the murder is said to have been the finding in the pockets of one of the accused of a knife that it was shown belonged to Dougherty. On the scaffold both men solemnly protested innocence down to the very moment when tiie fatal drop fell, and one of them, in a speech from the gallows declared himself guiltless of the terrible crime and said that the perpetrator of the murder would be discovered in less than twenty years, and that he wouldn't be found to be a black man, eithen The story of the crime and exe cution had long since been nearly forgotten, but the reported confes sion made public now has revived it and aroused the curious interest of all familiar with the tragedy and the subsequent startling developments. The woman who is rt putted to have made the startling confession is a Mrs. Patty A. Ward, living a few miles from Chrisfield. She is suffer ing from a terrible cancer, which has placed her beyond all fear of human law, and her confession is believed to have been prompted by a knowl edge of her approaching death and the fear of entering the presence of her Maker without Laving confessed Ler crime. It is understood that she lias given to her friends a full de tail of the horrible affair, in which she discloses the fact that she, to gether with her son murdered Mr. Dougherty for his money. The son died a few years ago and a short time before his death it is said he expressed a wish to disclose some thing as it is believed, his share in the crime but that Mrs. ard pre vented his doing so by placing tier hand over his mouth. 1 here are many rumors in circu lation about the whole affair, one being to the effect that the friends of the dying woman won't allow her confession to be given to the public until after her death has taken place. yhdaddphia Tunes. Esquimaux Duck Sjwarln;-. The following paragraph occurs in a paper in iknbner, by Col. Gilder, second officer of the Franklin search part', entitled "Among the Esqui maux with Sehwatka. A most novel and interesting method of bird catching is practiced uuring the spring and early summer, while the ducks and geese are molt ing and unable to fly. The Esqui maux puts his kyack that is, his sealskin canoe on his head, like an immense hat, and repairs to the lake. or the seaside, where he has seen the helpless birds swimming and feeding in the water. Here he launches his frail bark, and, when seated, which is not always accom plished without a ducking, takes his double bladed oar in his hands and at once etarU in pursuit of the game, Before him, on his kyack, where he can seize it at the proper time, lies his duck spear, together with other implements of the chase. Cautious ly approaching the featherless flock, he sometimes gets quite near before h;fl presence is noticed ; but even then, before he is in striking dis tance, there is a great splutter in the water, as the band scatters in every direction, vainly beating the water with the curious looking stumps that soon will wear their plumage and once more do duty as wings. Some dive below the surface and come up a great way off, and always just where you are not looking for them ; but as the flock takes alarm the hunter dashes forward, feelin the necessity for speed rather than for caution. He is soon within 15 or zv leet oi the 6trugglirrg mass, and seizing a curious looking spear, with three barbs of equal length, he poises it for a moment in the air, and then hurls it with unerring aim at the devoted bird, impaling it with a sharpened iron or bone spike in the centre of the barbs. The han die of the spear is wood, and floats on the surface of the water, so that the hunter can recover his weapon and game at his leisure. Found Dead. heading, June l. last evening T . -r . tlie dead body of Mrs. Louisa Mahl- born, of this city, aged eighty years. was found lying on the lounge at her residence in an advanced state of decomposition. The old lady re sided alone, and as she was not no ticed about the dwelling for some days two of the neighbors made a search of the premises. They found the woman lying on a lounge, and supposed her to be slccpina. Thev gave the body a push, when to their horror they lound the lady to be dead. They notified the proper authorities. It is supposed she died a natural death during Sunday or Monday, and as she occupied the house alone, the fact was not discov- ed until last night Coroner Kelly held an inquest The old ladv is said to Lave been well to do out very miserly.

I Lave been annoyed at times al most beyond endurance in my en deavors to have my work done just as I direct In no one instance is this annoyance greater th in in my almost futile attempts to have my poultry cared for in a way that shall show some little re 'M finny wish es in the matter, i ;. we a large flock of hens mature birds, all of them, not fancy specimens, but just such hens as any farmur would keep, and I try to keep them well, but all my suggestions, wishes, and even positive orders avail nothing to prevent them from being fed almost exclusively upon sloppy food. The trouble is just here people raising poultry get in the Labit of feeding young chickens soft food and as they grow to maturity follow up the practice. J his practice is very faulty ; chickens rrj young, indeed, when they cannot consume some solid food such as the smaller grains. It is true that young chickens will do much tietter for a time upon soft food, but the proportion of solid food should be increased as the chickens attain larger growth. The mere fagt that all kinds of poultry, both young and old, devour all kinds of sloppy washy food with avidity, proves nothing, as will be speedily found by compairing the increase in weight or productive capacity with the us ual quantity of soft food devoured. The reason for all this should be plain to the most casual observer: Solt food as usually made, is lack ing in the nourishment required by poultry. The attempt to fatten fowls on this kind of food is never satisfactory. The laxity that is the result of a continued diet of soft food very seriously interferes with the egg producing capacity of the best layers of the world. Now, I do not wish to have it inferred that I want my hens fed always - on corn or barley, or that they should never be fed soft food. But as a change of pasture is benchcial to sheep or calves, so I would change the diet of my ponltry very often, and occa sionally give them soft food, but never confine them even a short tune to that diet In winter all fowls are better without soft food, if they have plenty of meat scrans or corn in short, the best possible heat producing food that can be given to them. The profits from poultry depend very much upon the same rules and principals that govern the profits of a dairy. Your Guest. Welcome him with a few pleasant, easy words, without ostentations cordiality; without gushing decla mations of friendship ; without par alyzing Lis arm by an interminable shaking of hands; without hurry or flourish, or sandwiching between every sentence an appeal to make himself entirely at home an appeal which usually operates to make one feel as much away from home as possible. Constantly taking it for granted on the part of the host and his family that one is not comforta ble, and that they must hurry about, and take all the responsibility (and all self-helpfulness) from the guests. thus depriving him of the credit of common sense, is something worthy of indignation ; all the more so be cause ioliteness forbids the least sign of impatience. And yet how many of our well meaning, and, in most things, well- bred people fall into the error that unless they are constantly on the alert, unless they establish a kind of espionage over their guest, and watch his movements, lest he should brush his coat or take a scat for himself, they will be wanting in courtesy The art of hospitality consists in putting the guest at his ease, and this does not mean telling him to be at his ease. It consists in making him forget that he is a guest, and not in constantly pushing the fact before his eyes. And it also consists in leaving him the exercise of his senses and responsibility, at least so far that, finding what he needs at his hand, he may help himself.
