A STORY OF TODAY.
BY THE AUTHOR OF THE 'JEWELED HAND.'
It is difficult to delineate justly the char
acter of Albert Hamlin—it was one of so
few distinctive, striking points—all was so
evenly, so finely balanced. It may, per
haps, be summed up in the one wont—
manliness. lle had the most generous,
the must affectionate heart ; he had good
sense, good judgment, good taste, and was
by nature a gentleman. With abundant
wealth, the fruit of years of industry, he
knew how to enjoy it—he valued it only
ministered to happiness. With the
deepest yearning for a home—the truelove
for wife and child—he had never married
until he could surround that home with
the elegancies and luxuries which aid hap
piness, if they cannot cause it. At forty, tie
had married the beautiful and portionless
daughter of a fine hut impoverished family—
given her a Lome and happiness. Never in
the three years of their marriai,, , e, had she
known a wish ungratified, never a care
from which he could shield her. Never

of Ludlow H. Thin man had watched her
countenance, unremarked by her, through
out the evening ; his eye as he rose to
speak, met her own, and with a smile of
rare sweetness, which seemed to shed sun
light over his melancholylatures, ho com
menced speaking. Mrs. Hamlin lost, Icit 1
, a word; with almost breathless attention
she listened, perfectly rapt, carried away
by the glowing enthusiasm of the speaker.
When he ceased, an almost deafening cry
of applause rang through the Hall—not
the Magyar chieftain himself was more
warmly cheered. The audience rose in a
body—the great Hungarian came forward,
grasped the hand of the speaker, and with
faltering lips, in a voice broken by emo
tion, thanked him, blessed him in his coun
try's name. Hellen, carried away by the
exciting scene, with a graceful gesture,
laid at the feet of Ludlow ll—, a bou
quet of rich and rare flowers. With one
of his magnificent bows, and that rare and
i dangerous smile—that smile which could
almost have won au angel to his side—he
acknowledged the gift, his fine eyes expraft
t
sing their admiration of the beautiful wo
man betore him ; so beautiful now, as she
stood silently inclining her graceful head,'
her face radiant with enthusiasm. During'
the delay attendant upon the close of the
exercises, Prof. Ludlow H— passed
round, having recognised in the gay and
witty hostess of Mrs. Hamlin, an acquain
tance, and was by her presented to Helen.
How passed the charmed days thence
forth—bow,
in the most delicate and refi
oed manner, that accomplished and•fasci-
Dating man won upon the interest of Hel
en—how friends, honored •by his notice,
seem to encourage the acquaintacce, it is
vain to tell ! Helen saw not her danger ;
Kate Mears called it a flirtation, and was
delighted in it ! So tue days passed ; the
last one came—on the morrow they were
to return to Boston. Not yet had Profes
sor 11— uttered one sylable, bestowed
one glance, that the purest wife could
have blushed to have received. Hellen
was not conscious of her interest in him—
she was fascinated—she was under a spell
—the spell of a deep and mighty enchant
ment. That morning Kate remarked;
"Your friend, Professor H., is coming. 1
saw hint crossing the street.“
I "My friend !" exclaimed Hellen ; and
I she blushed, and looked frightened.
Before Mrs. Mears had time to reply,
the door woe opened. and the gentleman
himself shown in. Helen was visibly em
barrassed as she rose, and accepted in si
lence his proffered hand. Always courtly
and high bred in manner, he was as much
at ease as if he had been the friend of
years; and perceiving her agitation, with
his usual tact and delicacy, spared her
pain by seeming not to notice. It was one
of his peculiarities, that he had a grace
and charm of his own in everything. It
was impossible.for him to write the,mot
hasty, careless note, without giving to it
something of his individuality. Ha never
said common-place things. Now, after a
few words of compliment, still remaining
standing, and seeming, with a single in
spiration of breath, to add height to Lis e
rect form, and expand his fine chest, as if
to give force and scope to his enthusiasm,
he commenced reciting:—
-Ay, R ive me music, flood the air with sound,
But let it be ruined', and bravo. and hieb,
Not such as leaves my wild ambition bound
In low delights, but lifts it to the sky,"
and so on, through the whole magnificent
poem.

the room, they looked eaelf into the eyes
of the other, for that feelleg for whioh
there were no words for them. All deep
feeling is voiceless. Helen burst into
tears. At this moment MeorMears came
up.
"Oh, Helen, this is to m for yen.—

The gentleman was nowt' .to be seen.—

Mrs. Hamlin yielded tly to the ar
rangement, was conductediO'the carriage,
and all the way to her boarding place sat
pale and silent, opposite heti companion.—
Professor ll bade the coachman wait
for him, and then silently rile handed his
quiet charge into the draeling-room. He
held out his hand to bid her "good-bye,"
aud, as he did so, said, "yen should never
hear music—it stirs you; beart so, you
cannot bear it."
"It makes my heart ache," she said,
plaintively,—"music—fins wok."
"I thought so," he said quietly, took a
seat where the light, which fell full upon
her, did not to much betisiy his face, and;
shading hei eyes with his hand, intently
gazed at her. He said questioningly—
"l think you can fiever have suffered
many heart-aches. I thigik your life must
have been crowded with hippiness.""
"I am very happy," she answered, and
sighed.
"You can have no repots, no self-re
proaches haunting I.oll4orever and for
ever ; no—no regret's for what you have
done, what left undonin o And oh," he
added, in a voice of thrilling mournfulness,
"your love bestowelre ever have been

Helen started, and hoe ips involuntari

"That is not all," he Paid, with a sweet,
sad smile ; "will you remember we?" Be

Kate had grown weary of waiting fur the
carriage, and returned on foot.

The Teacher Taught.
In my early years I attended the pub
lic school at Roxbury, Massuchuset ta. Dr.
Nathaniel Prentice was our respected teach
er ; but hie patience at times would get
the better of him and get nearly exhausted
by the infraction of the school rules by the
scholars. Ou one occasion, in a very
"wrathy" way, he threatened (without
much thinking perhaps, of the rule he was
establishing) to punish with six blows of a
heavy ferula, the first boy detected in whis•
pering, and appointed some of the scholars
as detectors. Not long after one of these
detectors shunted out :
"Master I—Johnny Ziegler is a-whisp
ering!"
Johnny was called up, and asked if it
was a fact. lie was a good boy, by the
way, and a favorite both with the master
and with the school.
"Is it true ?" asked the teacher, "did
you whisper ?"
"Yes," answered John, "I did ; but I
I was not aware of what I was about,whim
I did it. I was working out a sum, and re.
quested the boy next to sue to reach 038
the arithmetic that contained the rule I
wished to see.
The Doctor regretted his hasty threat;
but at the same time told John he w could
not suffer him to escape the stated punish
ment, and continued : •
"I wish I could avoid it s but I cannot
without a forfeiture of my Own word, and
the consequent loss of my tuthorlty.
will leave it," ho added, "to any three of
the scholars whom you may chow, to say
whether or not I shall omit .the punish
ment.
John said he would agree to that, and
immediately culled ont G. S., D. D., and
D. P. The doctor told them to return a
verdict, which, after a little consultation,
they did es follows :

•"Give 1711 THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. "
—ln the Musical World, K. Storrs Willis
narrates the following strange incident
which happened while he was living in
Germany. In the neighborhood of Vienna.
there dwelt a young peasant woman, who
supported herself by the cultivation of veg
etables, which she disposed of in the Vi-'
enna market. She inhabited a small
house, attached to which was her vegeta
ble garden. Young as she was, she had
been married ; but Oer husband had died.
leaving her little girl, who was now just
old enough to run about and play with
other children in the neighborhood. The
mother was still handsome, and desirous
of a second marriage.
About this Cone, indeed, there was vis
iting her a young man for whom she had
conceived an affection, and whose propo
sition of marriage she was now beginiug
impatiently to await. But no proposal was
made. A dark thought finally crosifi'd the
young woman's mind that there must be
some obstacle in the way, and (bat this
was, in all probability, the child. . An un
natural struggle of jealousy took place.
which resulted in a fearful determination—
she would make away with the child !
Beneath her house WHO: a deep cellar,
where she occasionally stored her vegeta
ble.. Taking her child by the hand one
day, she led it down stairs, and, thrusting
it inside, closed the dour, locked it, and
hurried up stairs. The same evening her
lover came ; they eat, chatted together,
but no mention was made of the little ab
sentee.
The next day, after a desertion of twenty
four hours, the mother went softly down
and listened at the door. The quick ear'
of the child caught her mother's step, and
she implored her to take her out of that
dark place—she was so cold and very
hungry. N.) answer was returned,. and
the mother crept quietly up. stairs. In
the evening the lover came again. 'rlie,y
took suppler together o and passed a social'
evening. After the second twenty-four
!inure had passed, the mother made anoth
er visit to the child. Again the little suf.
ferer heard her, and with feeble voice
begged for a crust of bread—only one
crust of bread. This pulled a little upon
the mother's heart, but—her wrpose was
fixed.
Another day passed. The. mother
went quietly down stairs and listened.—
All was silent. She opener softly the
door—the child lay dead. 'Pekin g swift
ly the hotly up 'flails, she laid it upon a
bed ; and immediately making a great
outcry ,called the neighbors together, telling
tbem that her child had suddenly died.—
' And so it seemed. The day after there.
was a funeral. The child was lying in
its coffin bestrewn with flowers, brought
by the little playmates iii the neighbor
; holitl , who had come to attend the faneral
! of their lost favorite.
-The -procession--moved- towards the
quiet Gotter.acker. (God's acre.) where
was to he planted this litde seed of an im
mortal flower. A clergyman was in at
tendance. The mother stood looking
down upon the grave, over which the holy
man was repeating. with solemn voice,—
"Our father who art in Heaven, hallowed
be thy name ; thy kingdom come ; thy
will be dime on earth se it it m heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
A piercing shriek, and the mother fell
with a groan to the earth. Looking wild.
ly around her, she then, in 4ihhering ac
cents, related to the shuddering throng at
the grave the very deed her own hands
hail committed. She lived not long after.
Crazed ant! smitten by the hand of Utxl,
she miserably died—■ signal instance of
retribution, and a startling lesson upon
the words, Give us this day our daily
bread.
A SINOVLAIR POLITICAL PIIOPIIECT.-..-
Napoleon L was a great Statesman as well
as General. His thorough knowledge or
the affairs and policy of the several Euro

Used the following remarkable language, at
St. Helena, in 1817,—thirty-aix years
ago:
"In the course of a few years Russia
will hive Constantinople, the greatest
part of Turkey, and all Greece. This I
hold to be as certain as if it had already
taken place. Almost all the cajoling and I
flattery which Alexander practiced to
