His counters were tilled with flowers awl all hands were at work making bouquets, crosses, wreaths, and filling b skets. The florist. Karl Breitmann, was nt work himself, super intending ; even his wife was pret•sed Into ser vice, and was making a bridal bouquet of fragrant orange blossoms. i're ently a ear- Huge stopped and a tall elegantly dressed young lady came into the shop. Karl stepped forward to take her order. " I wish to leave an order for a crown of white floWera for a funeral to morrow morn• ing," she odd. "I am so sorry, madam, hut as madam sees we are so busy. A wedding tonight, a rune. rat to-morrow, hall a dozen panics, and so many baskets ordered—ft is quite Impossible," answered the little German, politely. The young lady look d disappointed, but as she turned to, go, Mrs. Breitmann stopped her. "I will see to It, miss, that your order Is filled. Only leave it with me. He's so busy," pointing at her husband. To speak truthfully Mrs. Breltmann was a ntte Tly soil and could not bear the thought of losing the prospective money, for she saw by the carriage at the door, and the young lady's appitrance that thls was a wealthy customer. '• Thank you," said the lady. "It is kind of you. I want a clown of pure white flowers. no tuberoses or camelias, but all roses and fine white flowers." "That will come very expensive, miss," observed the florist's wife, anticipating the ready answer—" Never minri expense. I want it just a', and as handsome as you can make it." " Perhaps a little cross of violets on the top would suit you, we make many so," sugges ted l re. Breitniann, her eyes sparkling as the lady assenttd, for violets were Just coming into season, and very expensive. " Yes, that will look well. Here is my card which you must tie on It, and shall I write the addr ss.2" Being supplied with a card for that purpose, she drew off her glove, displaying a shapely white hand, on which glittered di, moods, and wrote the name and address. "The funeral is to.morrow at ten, and I shall expect this to be very haadsbme. Mind, I shall he there and see it." " Yek, miss," replied Mrs. Breitmann, glancing at the book. " Oh, in Thirty-flfth street I I thought, maybe, it was for Mrs. Wil• lis' funeral ; that is tomorrow morning and we have .a large order for that." "Yes," rejoined the kdy, drawing on her glove, as she careleroly looked, " I ece.you are very busy. Good after Atoll." "Good afiernoon,Miss. Shall I send you the bill ?" inquired Mts. Breitmann, following the young lady to the door " No ; I will call and pay you." Then, as she went out and got, Into the car riage, tit florist's wife heard her order the coachman to drive to No.—Fifth avenue ;and as sire went back to her work of arranging the ttmers, she picked up the card, saylng—" I wonder who she is." On the pasteboard she read in old English letters the name, " Mary Lester, Fitth avenue." " Ha, Karl," she called, " I have gained a customer. One who does not care for ex muse." "Thou wilt have to arrange the flowers thyself, Marine," answered he, crossly. 'We will beup half the night before." Kutrine nodded. When the bridal bouquet was die. posed of and her husband had gone of& to easy, p•rintend the floral decorations of the church where the marriage was to be, she began to make the crown. "Life and death - l" she muttered, as her deft Angers wove the creamy rosy s with the snow white ones, arranged the odorous sprays of lilies with feathery dentzia. Brides and corpses I We florists deck them both, and flowers serve for one as well as for another." Then she fell to thinking of the lady, Mrs. Willis, who was to be buried to morrow. "Four crosses, six wreathes, a crown, and loose flowers," said she to her self. "He loved her well. Its not two years since I made her bridal bouquet. Dear heart. I wish to-night's bride a longer life." When the cross of violets was made, surmounting the crown, Mrs. Breitmann surveyed her handiwork with true artistic pleasure. It was berintiful indeed. The absence ot the stiff Japonicas and heavy tuberoses gave it less ot n funeral look and more the semblance ofa heavenly crown. After tying Miss Lester's card on, her work was complete, and she had time to assist with the other crosses. 'lt was with a sigh of relief tuft Miss Lester threw herself back in thecoupe beside a portly nudron in black velvet. "Olt, mamma," es claimed she, " I do hate this unr, at, foolish faslibm of sending flowers to dead people. They haven large order fora Mrs. Willis' fune ral there at the florists. and our flowers might Just as well go to her as to Cousin Marianne's. We didn't know George; we mint know Mrs. Wink." "No,love," replied Mrs. Lester. "But it Is ex peeted pf us in one case and not in the other, and Marianne would he hurt and vexed, if we sent no II were for her husband's funeral, and althointh I deprecate the custom as much as you still it is as well to do as all the world does " "The world shall never lay down laws for me," said Mary,energetically. "I think for a friend to strew flowers on the person of a loved one 4( lio has gone, is beautiful; but,oh, tWs reduction or 'poetical sentiment to lash ion's edicts," and she smote her little palms together so violently as to make her mother start. "Don't do that, Mary. It Is not ladylike. Tell me, did you order the crown made as I desir.al ?" Then they drifted off into a con velsation upon the quality, styli and price of flowers. "Making up orders for Mrs. Willis' funeral," observed Mrs. Lester at last. `• I wonder if that is Clara Spencer who was mar. tied about two years ago to Willard Willis. You have seen them at church, Mary? Their pow is three ahead of ours." "Yes,l remember,"answered Mary,thought, fully. She spoke little on their way home,and was rallied by her mother for her absent air. I was thinking," said she, bri. fly. She did not like to say that her thoughts were full that tall handsome man, with his little blond, wife, who had sat just before them In church. Sunday after Sunday , Mary had seen them to• get leer, and she was wondering If he had loved her much ; if he grieved sorely for the lost. How sorely Mary did not know. Williard Willis was bowed in grief for the loss of his wile, his little Clara. Ile felt keenly, too, now that she was gone,thal be bad treated her too much like a child, had been often im patient with her waywardness. Now that !Milli had laid his cold seal upon her, all her faults were forgotten, and only the winning, loving ways remembered which had so won • his •wart before marriage. • It was the morning of the funeral. The air was heavy with the scent of flowers. His els. ter, Mrs. Carr, was arranging the floral devices about the fair marble figure In its last resting Once. "flow many beautiful floe era there e!" said she, through her sobs, to some of the other relatives. tt Look, Sarah, what a lovely cross James Ilubbel has sent her. You know people said he wanted to marry her. And Cis crown—l never did see anybody so beautiful I Look I all roses, and none of those horrid Japonicas. Sec these violets In the lit. lie cross. " It Is handsome," skid Helen Willard, lumina th'e card over. "Mary Lester; who Is she. Sarah?" Sundt Spencer the stater of the departed one shook her head. " I never heard Clara speak of her." • She ought to be either a very Intimate friend or relative, to send anything so handsome as this. It never cost less than forty dollars.• I'll ask Willard," said Mrs. Carr, starting forward with the crown In her hands. Helen pulled her therm " Not now. It is most time for the funeral to begin, and he feels so bad, and I wouldn't if I were you." " Well I'll put it aside, and after the service I can ask him. Here comes the Bishop?" and up weitt Mrs. Carr's handkerchief to her eyes as she sailed forward•in her new mourning to meet the venerable prelate. . ' When the last sad rites were over, 'Willard Willis returned mournfully alone. The first thing he saw was the crown standing upon the mantel where his sister had . placed it'. 'All his loss rushed over him at the sight of It and Knitting tears filled hie eyes. Who can -- de: spice his weakness ? None that have known grief such as death brings! Willard found his once pleasant, cheerful home now so lonely and msolate without its presiding genius that he could no longer Mal it, and about six weeks after his wife's death lie left for Europe, seeking oblivion and cute solution,ln new scenes of interest. At first lit grieved meth, but his wife had been really childish, Moliali and frivolous. Ills greater in tellent waa csuglit by her extreme beauty and winning ways, but these charms were begin• fling to imitMlieir power before her death and he telt neiwja sort of freedom for which ht eftem-repronched himself. Alter a year ofab belles he returned to. America and reopened his house. Mrs. Carr bad kindly consented ti take charge of it for him, but The offer bad been declined. One day, ,as tie entered the long unused and darkened parlors, he saw on the mantel the wire framework- of the once fresh and lovely crown, with faded flowers hanging from it. Detaching the card, ho rang for the maid to remove it, and he stood by the window, in the flood of sunshine he had just 'let in, watching her. Bite was shocked. "To think of dear misses only ono a year, and he ordering that crown, which aho was sure he had been keepin' as a souveney, away to the ash-heap I" Willard was trying to analyze his feelings. Were they grief or re gret or relief? Which was uppermost he could not tell. Then he glanced at the bit of pasteboard he was laying with, an I read— " Mary Lester." At once he remembered his sister writing to him of the mystery attached to the crown he had just ordered away, how neither his wife's family nor his knew how very singular it was fo , a 'jr ung lady to send a widower funeral flowers for his wife I Yes, he was a widower I He smiled, and looked in the long mirror. The title had been asso ciated in his mind with gray hairs and old age, and be saw the reflection of a man still young and handsome. His reverie was interrupted by Mrs. Carr. "Oh Willard, I ant glad you aro at home I Now, do be a good brother and take Helen to Airs. Rubbers party this evening. I cannot go and she has set her heart on it. Don't dis• appoint the child. Oh, I know you are In mourning," (seeing him glance at hls dress), " but Clara has been dead over a year now. Sarah Spencer Is going, and she was Clara's own sister. Don't disappoint poor little Helen." Willard was just going to say "no"—the word was trembling on his lips, when Helen herself came running In the parlor, and looked up appealingly at her brother, with tears in her eyes. He could not refuse his favorite little sister, and promised he would go, although he feared he would feel out of place in a gay as sembly. But when, once more clad In even ing dress, with his pretty sister on his arm, he entered Mrs. Hubbel's parlors, and met with gentle greetings on every side, he felt as if he were again in his own element, After supper, as he was leaning against the parlor door watching the mazes of the Ger man, his hostess captured him, saying—" Mr. Willis, I am going to introduce you to a love ly young friend ot mine who does not dance," and leading him t t a lady In pink, she. pro nounced the cabalistic words—" Mr. Willis, allow me to present you to Miss —" Thu name was lost In the crash of the band. Willard gave her his arm and led her to a ❑e reception-room on the other side of the hall. "Here at last we can talk without eplitttng our throats in trying to overtop the hand," said he; and talk they did until He. len, a most exhaustless dancer, came for her brother to take her home. Willard had found tue young lady a most de lightful conversationallet, witty, piquante, in tellectual and original; and could hardly be• lieve they had been talking two hours, until convinced by his own watch. The next Sunday, Willard Joined his new acquaintance coming out of church, and, ac companying her imm^.,received an invitation to call, which he availed himself of very soon. 1k discovered her name to be . Miss Lester, and anon found himsellindentifying her with the lady who had sent the crown. One even ing, hearing her mother call her Mary, these suspicions grew stronger, when he compared the address on the card In his posesslon with her residence. Ile found Miss Lester occupying a large share of his thoughts. If ho was pleased with a book, she must read It, and straightway a sopy was sent her, and her opinion asked on all subjects; no plan was undertaken without her approbation ; and as Willard knew all tee symptom, he soon knew be was in love, deeply in love with Mary Lester. "It is all those flowers I" thought he. "If she had never sent them, I would never have thought of her again after our casual meeting; but i wonder—" Then he asked himself for the thousandth time—" Why did she send me that crown ?" Finally he concluded to -ask her, which was, after all the wisest plan. "To his great disappointment. she denied-all knowledge of it ; but when convinced by her card, she recollected sending. a crown to her cousin Marianne on her husband's funeral. "It was some fearful mistake of the florist," said she at length. ' Oh, Mr. Willis, what must you thought me capable of I Setting my cap at you the moment you were available I" and she buried her face, suffused with blush es, in her hands. "To speak truly,l did not put that construc tion on it, but it does look like It. Oh, Mary, how could you do it I And I, a pour, help lees Innocent man, have walked right into your snare, for you have caught me. Mary, my darling, I love you truly." taking her hands dow4. "Don't hide your pretty face, or If you must, hido it here," drawing her bead to hie Shoulder. Need the reek be told. Mrs. Willis No. 2 thinks widowers very bold wooers, but her husband says she encouraged him at first, before he ever dreamed of marrying again, and this is the only rock on which this happy couple split. And In their happiness the dead is not forgotten, for a pretty rose-cheeked lit tle girl bears the name of Clara Specer.—(N. Y. Sunday Times. A Henry Law-Stilt—Governor Geary Finer for n few Million. The Harrisburg . Patriot says: Governor Geary Is at present occupied by some heavy litigation in the courts of California which, If it result favorably, will make him one of the millionaires of the land. When he was alcal de of the town of San Francisco he was at the same time extensively engaged In land and financial speculations It was not an uncom mon thing for monied men in California in that early day to.•loan money at such elm moos rates that a moderate sum ii prudently invested rapidly accumulated the richest re- turns. Governor Geary in one Instance in• vested a considerable sum at the rate of five per cent. a month. It is to recover this luau that he has brought suit. The San Francisco Ereminer, in its court reports, thus notices this important case: A case was commenced in the Fourth district court yesterday that il lustrates the high rate of interest paid in early times. It is the suit of John W. Cleary, tor. mercy nicalde of San Francisco, now Gover nor of Pennsylvania, to recover nearly a mil lion dollars from the estate of Sitnmons., Hutchinson Sz Co. The amount loaned on Au gust 11. 1850, was $62,000 bearing.intereet at live per cent. per month: The firm tailed in September, 1850, but Qeary,after gettingjudg meet, could find no property. He now brings suit against the assignees of the firm to en join them from making any conveyances of properly of the firm they still retain. At com pound interest, which was generally the rule in early time, this I^an would have nearly equalled our national debt. Very M uch Pivoted With It Judge 8., a good Democrat, a good Judge, and a conscientious man, was holding court in one of the prairie counties of Ohio Just ba. fore the October election. There was a great rush of doubtful claim ants to citizenship, and the Judge had decided to check it. From this decision Barney Mulligan, a swift witness' for these mut ryo voters, dissented, " for a ravioli he Lad." Judge, (to Barney.)—" Do you know of your own knowledge, that this applicant, Brian O'Toole, Is attached to the prineiplesof the Constitution 01 the United States?" Barney, (very decidedly)—" Yla, yer or, he la." Judge lion ?" "Has he ever read the Conatitu Barney, (a little dovicast.)—: sir " Judge—" Can he read at all?" Barney, (brightening up.)—" Can't read at all, your honor, and in courea he'll always vote the dire—vote right, air." • Judge.—"l think it will do Brian no harm to wait until the next term ; Sheriff adjourn court till 2 o'clock." Barney was not to be beat in that way. lle planted Brian in a lence curler, aiuck a-reil in front of him lbr a table, and laid on it a oorrowed law•book, from which be read In a rich brogue "the Constitution," from begin. ning to end, and then waited for 2 o'clock. soon as the crier had proclaimed "O yes I oyes I" etc., Barney rushed to the bar with his client. • .

'fflie may be a " respectable young lady" for Pittsburgh, but hereabouts the steal ing of books does not generally command re +pect. Of course, as the respectable young tally's father was wealthy and paid for the uouks, the matter was hushed ,up. It is a curios fact that poor people are never afflicted with kleptomania, though they are much given to stealing. READ'S SWEETEST THING.

A rather amusing story is in circulation at the expense of the eminent gentleman from Massachusetts. At the President's levee the other night, which was densely crowded, an old lady from„the interior somewhere, In a fainting condition requested her husband to get her an Ice. "Can't be did," responded her• husband In tome irritation ; " there ain't no refreshments here." " Don't believe it. Didn't we getplenty at Belknap's the other night 1" the good woman said angrily, " now go and get me an ice and a lemonade." " I tell you cow don't be a fOol ; there ain't no refreshments, everybody says so," grunted the lord and master. " You are quite mistaken, sir," said the Mon. S. S. Cox, who happened to be near, and who never loses an opportunity to put in a Joke. " The President always provides substantially. There is the butler, whose business it is to show ladies to the supper room," and the Hon. jester polntrod to Gen. Butler. "You'll find him a little stuck up, but you must not mind that ; tell him to get you some terrapins." This was said so gravely that the two struggled through the crowd to where Gen. Butler stood talking to some ladies. " I say, mister, I am told you are the but ler," said the man. " I'm Gen. Butler," replied that gentleman pleasantly, thinking the two country people were filled with admiration for his greatness. "I don't care Whether you are general but. ler or not, but my wife wants some terrapins and lemonade." " Sir I" roared Gen. B. in amazement and disgust. " Oh, don't take on airs, old cock. Come now, hurry up them terrapins." " You must he drunk, sir ; you must be drunk I" thundered Mr. 13. "No he ain't," screamed his wife. " He's a Knight Templar ; he ain't a bit drunk, but I guess you sir." boars of laughter greeted this, In which 8. S. Cox was kneed to join. Gen. Butler, red dened In the laceand began pumug his cheeks out In a most violent manner. " I don't understand this extraordinary con duct. What do you want, sir—what do you want?" "Terrapins, I tell you." "What do you take me tor, you cursed foOl?" roared Benjamin. " You call me a cussed fool and I'll belt von over the snout, you sgaint•eyed pauper I" At this juncture an officer of the police seized the belligerent husband and led him away,aruld great laughter. Butler, turning suddenly,saw to the mischief maker. " I say, Co:, did you do that ?" " Well, yes, I'm afraid I did." "Well, I owe you the terrapins, and I'll pay yon, mind that." And the two walked lovingly away. -- ----- GLEANINGS AND GOSSIP. A Liberal paper remarks of Judge Darla that he hasn't a dishonest hair in his head.. From this, says the Toledo Blade, we Inter that Davis is entirely bald. "one term, just one little term I" plead . Doctor Greeley ; and the response from the people is " Not any." Thus the doctor's idea, the Rochester Democrat claims, is radically in domed. The Greeley papers are all congratulating the country that their candidt.te had but one brother.in.law and only two nieces; where upon the Louisville Ledger adds, with a sigh : " Well, if we have to take the old granny at all, the less there is of him the better we shall like It."

Every one knows what a sweet quietude belongs to the pretty country houses and vii. las that are scattered 'along the banks of the Delaware. It was in one of these that a pret ty little romance was enacted, and the whole matter turns, strangely as it may seem, upon a bit of English court plaster. At the villa spoken of, a fairy spot situated near Burlington, with old geometric walks, long shady alleys, and plenty of lovers' re treats, with Its most Electable defeuners at 12, there was staying during the autumn of last year, a widow—young, pretty and rich. Buch widows do not escape notice in the shadiest of walks, nor In the most lonesome of country houses. Mrs. M was the life of the place, and not one of the many visitors and lcnging hnngerson had reached, up to late autumn, the conquest of the widow's heart. But there came one day a certain Robert R—, young, witty, and bolding a prominent position at the Philadelphia bar. He had heard of the guests at the villa, and being acquainted with the hostess, had accepted her Invitation, and in a short time he showed the fair widow such proofs of his devotion, as to eclipse all the wooers who had gone before. If she rode, he was her cavalier ; If she strolled s in the grounds that surrounded the villa, ho, was the most eager listener to her prattle, and paid the swiftest tribute to her charms. . . In short, he won upon her heart to such a degree, that she listened kindly to the ten ducat of his speeches, and made such a hesi tating promise of returning tenderness, as if she were yet a maid, and not a widow. On one point, however, she insisted—she was to enjoy undisturbed, and subject to no rumor of engagement, the coming winter in the capi tal. She was determined to experience at least one foil winter of Washington widowhood. Bob R urged his suit more vigorously, but to no avail. She promised faithfully to be his at the end of the season, provided he guarded his intentions during the interval, and made no mention of their compact—for it is well understood that a lady known to be " engaged t " receives but little attention. Robert R---, with the fervor of his love in him, and with a better knowledge of the sad and bewildering gaieties of Washington life, thrn belonged to the charming Mrs. M—, was naturally anxious in regard to the issue of such a scheme. However, for some days, the secret was well kept. The company at the villa was fairly in the dark, the widow was look ing forward to a brilliant winter, and Rob ert It—was chewing the cud of somewhat perplexed reflections. Weeks slipped on, and the party was about breaking up, to re turn to their respective homes, when the com pany remarked, upon the lip of the lawyer, one morning, a small strip of court planter, which was the more striking as he wore no moustache. In a country villa the smallest event becomes a matter of talk, and the com pany bantered the young lawyer upon his de corated lip. The lawyer very) ndlfferently replied that he had cut his lip in shaving. This seemed fair enough, and Mr. R— wore his mark through the day. The even• leg was a bright autumnul one, and disposed the company to a stroll after supper, through the graceful walks which we described as be longing to the villa. Nothing can bo more delightful. There is such a mellowing of the evening air under the autumn leaves, and mit retired arbors, where we can chat with a charming friend—the very place, one would say, for the safe Indulgence of such a contract as existed between the widow and the law yer. One by one, however, as the evening ad vanced, the parties strolled back to the parlor. Robert appeared with his lip bare, and not a trace of the mot ning'S wound could be seen. Presently appeared the charming Mrs. M—, entering with something more than her usual dignity, very brilliant and beautiful, as usual, save only that a single black spot was observ able on the left cheek, very near the lip. The company were naturally curious, and a glance at the face of the barrister, free now from Its decoration of the morning, seemed to throw light upon the subject. A second and closer look confirmed it ; there could be no doubt that the court-plaster, which in the morning had clung to the lip of the lawyer, was now adhering to the pretty cheek of Mrs. M —. But how ? It was easy for the ladles to guess. Natural. ly enough there followed a series of whispers and stilled laughs, that greatly Irritated the pretty widow, who was still wholly uncon scion/ of the part she was playing. The joke -*Mime at last too much for her temper, end she Insisted very passionately upon knowing the secret of their amusement. The question was very embarrassing, but wary Mr. R—, seeing at a glance how matters stood, made a 'bold venture in. behalf of the di3concerted belle. Ladies and gentlemen," said he, "I have the honor of announcing Wynn my approach. leg marriage with Mrs. M—." " What are you saying ?" exclaimed the pretty widow ; "you have no authority for such a statement." " But why keep the secret any longer? Let me announce my great happiness, and say, further, that you only just now accorded me a kiss In pledge of our betrothal." " How dare you, air ?" exclaimed the pro voked lady. Mr. It—, taking Mrs. M—'s band, led her betide the mirror, and whispered In her ear, "You see I" , • She looked—there is no escape. Engage ment or no engagement, a klia In the garden would mar her winter's coquetries. The safest way was the easiest. Her betrothal was ac knowledged, and the lawyer was In a charm ing humor. Horace Greeley writes to one of his admir ers as follows : Now Is the proper time to graft axle trees, especially for those varieties for Im mediate use, on trucks and heavy wagons. Double-trees for light carriages, and the fancy kinds suitable for trotting wagons, sulkies, &c., will do well If not grafted until a month later,ow log much to the size required, Striped ono gold-leafed single-trees, though not so hardy, are generally a paying crop,and require little manure, though great care should be used in selecting the scions and in doing the work. All crack and checks should bo putted, sand papered, and covered well with varnish. If these days of cheap grafting, I would not ad vise you to try raising from seed, as the pro cess Is too tedious. I tried it some years since, plowed deep, planted carefully, with plenty on manure, but the growth was so slow that I de cided on grafting, with the best results. A German physician has lately started the theory that the fearful disease known as small pox, originates from an excess of albuminous matter In the blood, and that this is to be prevented by the administration Of common Batt.
