Some forty years since, in the inferior of my native State, New York, lived the fath er of our heroine, an honest and respectable farmer. He had but two children Lucyt a noble girl of nineteen, and Kllen, a year or two vouneer. The first was willingly rather than strikingly beautiful. Urd-r a manner observable for its. seriousness and nun like serenity was concealed an impassioned na ture, and a heart of the deepest capacity for loving. She was remaikable for a voice of thrilling and haunting sweetness. Ellen Dutton was the brilliant antipode of her fcUter, a "born beauty," whose preroga tive of beauty was to have her own way in all things and at all times. An indulgent lather, a weuk mother, and an idolizing sis ter.all unconsciously contributed to the ruin of a nature not at first remarkable for strength or generosiry. Where, in all God's creatures, is heart lessneas so seemingly unnatural, is selfish ness so detestable, as in a beautiful woman? Lucy possessed a fine intellect, and as her parents were both real New Englanders. she and her sUter were far better educated than ether girls of her situation in that then half settled country. In thoe days, many engaged in school teaching from the honor and pleasure it af forded rather than from necessity. Thus, after a few months previous to the com mencement of our story, Lucy Dutton left for the first time her fireside circle, to take charge of a school muic twenty miles from her native town. I For some time her letters home were ex pressive only of the contentment which sprang from tho conseiomness of active use fulness of receiving while imparting good. Hut anon came a change. Then were those record home characterised by fitful gaiety or dreaiy sadness ; indefinable hopes and f'r seemed struggli'g for suprcmaoy a the writer's troubled heart. Lncy loved, but scarcely acknowledged it to herself, while she knew not that she was loved. So, for time, that second birth of woman's nature was like a warm sunrise struggling with the roM mists of the morning. Hut one day brought a letter which could cot be forgotten in the houie of the absent one, and a letter traced by a hand that trein tied in sympathy with a heart tumultuous with happiness. Lucy had been wooed and won, and she but awaited her parents' ap jroval of her choice to become the betroth ed of KJwin W , a man of excellent family aad standing in the town where she had been teaching. The father and mother accorded their sanction with many blessing, and Lu cy's next letter promised a speedy visit from the lovers. To such natures as L icy's, what an ab sorting, and yet what a revealiug of self, is a first passion what a prodisraltty of giving, what an incalculable wealth of receiving what a breaking up i there of the deep wa ters of the soul, and 11IW heaven descends in sudden star-showers on life I .If there is a s- a-on when an angel may look with interest upon her mortal sister, it is when she be holds her heart pais from its bud like inno cence and girlhood, and taking to its very core the fervid light of love, glow an l eriin f 'Q into perfect womanhood. At last the plighted lovers came, and wel comes and festivities awaited them.. Mr. gave entire satisfaction to father, mol h ?r. and even the exacting "beauty." He a handsome man, with some pretentions to fashion, but in manner, and apparently in character, the opposite of his betrothed. It was decided that Lucy should not again leave home until after her marriage, which, &t the request of the ardent lover, was to be celebrated within two months, and on the birthday of the bride. It was therefore ar tanced that Eilen should return with 31 r. i to like charge of her sister's school for the remainder of the term. The bridal day had come. It had been ciiired in by a May morning of surpassing loveliness ; the busy hours had worn away, &n j neither the bridegroom not Ellen, the , first bridesmaid, had appeared. 1 in her neat little chamber, sat Lucy, doubting. She was all ready, in a simple bite muslin, anj uer few hridal ornaments' J3? on the table by her sick. Mis Allen, r second bridesmaid, a blue eyed," affeo ''onate girl, her chosen friend from child was arranging to a more graceful fall t!e wealth of light ringlets which swept Let wowy necfe. To' the anxious inquiries of companion, respecting tha absent ones, srailod and replied t ' - 'Oh, o me thing has happened to detain i 'ten iwbiW ; we heard from them tha oth er day, and all was well. They will be here by and by, never fear." Evening came, the guests were assembled, and yet the bridegroom tarried." There were whispers, surmises and wonderings, and a bhadow of anxiety passed over the lace of the bride elect. At last a carriage drove rather slowly to the door. "They have come !" cried ' many voices, and Ellen entered. In reply to the hurried snd confused inquiries all around him, Mr. W muttered something about "unavoida ble delay," and stepping up to the side board tossed over a glass of wine, another and another. The company stood silent! with amazement. Finally a rough old far mer exclaimed, "better late than never; so lead out the bride." W strode hastily across the room and placed himself by Ellen and took her band in his. Then, without daring to meet the eye of any about him, be said : "I wish to make an explanation I am under (he pain ful necessity that is, I have the pleasure to announce that I am already married. The lady whom I now hold by the hand is my wife." Then turning in an apologctical manner to Mr. and Mrs. Dutton, he added : " I found that I never loved until I knew your second daughter," And Lucy ! She heard all with a strange calmness, and then walking steadily forward, confronted her betrayers. Terrible, as pale of Neuiisses herself, she stood before them ; and her looks pierced like a keen cold blade nto their false hearts. A though to assure herself of the dread reality of the vision, she laid her hand on Eilen's shoulder, and let it glide down her arm but she touched not Edwin. As those cold fingers met hers, the unhappy wife gazed full iuto her sister's face, and she marked the ghastly color of her check, the dilated nostril, the quivering lip, and the intensely mournful eyes, she covered her own face with her hands-, and burst into tears, while the young husband, awed by the terrible silence of her he had wronged, gasp ed for breath and staggered back against the wall. Then Lucy clasped her band on her forehead and first gave voice to her anguish and despair in one fearful cry, which could not but forever ring in the souls of that guil ty pair, and fell into a death like swoon, at their f.er. ""After the insensible girl had Irt'n removed to a chamber, a stormy scene ensued in the room beneath. The parents and guests were alike enraged against W ; but tears and prayers of his young wife, the petted beauty and spoiled child, at last softened somewhat the anger of the parents, and an opportuni ty for an explanation was accorded .to the offenders. A sorry explanation it proved. The gent leman affirmed that the first sight of Ellen's lo cly face had awakened tho emp:re of her plainer sister over - his affections. Fre'iuent interviews had completed the con quest of his loyalty ; but he had been held in check by honor, and never told his love until when on his way to espouse another. in an unguarded moment, he revealed it, and the avowal ha 1 called forth an answering ac knowledgment from Ellen. They had thought it bc-t, in order to "save pain to Lucy," and the opposition frjfli. her.and to secure their own happuess, to be married before their arrival at C . Lucy remained insensible for some time. When she revived and apparently regained her consciousness, she still maintained her strange silence. This continued for many weeks, when it partially passed away, her friends saw with inexpressible grief thither reason had fled that she was hopeless'y insane. But her madness was of a mild and harmless nature. She was gentle and peace able as ever.but frequently sighed and seem ed burdened with some great sorrow which she could ii t herself comprehend. She had one p-cu'iurity which all who knew her must recollect ; this was a wild fear and careful avoidance of men.- She seemed pos sessed of a spirit of unrest. She could not be confined, but wus continually escaping from her friends, they knew not whither. While her parents lived, they by their care and unwearied efforts, in some measure controlled this unfortunate propensity; but when they died their stricken child became a wanderer.homeless. friendless and forlorn. Through laughing ypriugs and rosy sum mers, tramp, tramp, tramp no rest for her of the crushed heart and crazed brain. I remember her as she was in my early childhood, toward the last of her weary pil grimage. As my father and brothers were frequently absent, and as my mother never closed Ler heart or door on "crazy Lucy," she often spent an hour or two by our fire side. Her appearance was very singular. Her gown was always patched with many colors, and her shawl or mantle was worn or torn, until it was open work or fringe. The remainder 'ot '' her miserable wardrobe she carried in a bundle on her arm, and some times she had a number of parcels of old rags, dried herbs, &c In the season of flowers, her tattered bon net was profusely decorated with those she gathered in the woods or by the wayside. Her love for these and her sweet voice were all that were left of the bloom and music of her existence. Yet no! her meek and child like piety still lingered. Her God had not forsaken her ; down in the dim chaos of her spirit the smile of his love yet gleamed faint ly in the waste garden of her .heart she still heard His voice at eventide, and she was not afraid. Her Bibie went with her everywhere torn and soiled volume, but as boly still ; and it may be as dearly chert Uhed, my dear reader, as the gorgeous copy now lying on your table, bound in "purple and gold, with gnilding untarnished upon its delicate leaves- Thirty years from the time of the com mencement of this mournful history, on a bleak autumnal evening, a rough country wagon drove into the town cf C . It stopped at the alms house ; ah attenuated form was lilted and carried in, and the wag on rumbled away. This was Lucy Dutton, brought to ber native town to die. She had been in decline some for months, and the miraculous strength which had so long sustained her in her weary wanderings at last forsook her utterly. Her sister had died some time before ; and the widowed husband had soon after moved to the Far West ; so Lucy had no friends no home but the alms house. One day, about a week after ber arriva', Lucy appeared to suffer greatly, and those about her looked for her release almost impatiently; but at night she was evidently better, and for the first time slept, tran quilly till morning. The matron who stood by her bedside when she awoke, was star -led by the clear and earnest gaze which met her own, but she smiled and bid the invalid "Good morning. " Lucy looked bewildered, but tho voice seemed to reassure her, and she exclaimed : "Where am I ; mi who are you ? I do not know you? I do not know you." A wild surmise flashed across the mind of the matron ; the long lost reason of the wanderer bad returned. . But the good wo man replied calmly and soothingly : "Why. you" are among your friends and you will know me presently." "Then maybe you know Edwin and El len," rejoined the invalid ; "have they come? Oh, I had such a terrible dn am ! I dreamed that they were married 1 Only think, Ellen married to" Edwin ! Strange 'tis that I should" dream that." "My poor Lucy," said the matron, with a gush of tears; "that was not a dream ; 'twas all trne." "All true!" cried the invalid, "then Ed win must be untrue, and that cannot be, for he loves me; we love ea-h other well, and Ellen is my sister. Let me see them ; I will go to thein." She endeavored to raise herself, but fell back fainting on the pillow. "What does this mean," said she; what makes me so weak ?" J-rt f Y.r. her -yes fell on her ofn hand t?i at old and withered hand! She gazed on it in blank amazemei.t "Something is the matter with my sight,'' she said, smiling faintly, "lor my hands look like an old woman's." ''And so it is," said the matron gently, "and so is mine ; yet we had fair plump hands when we were youg. Dear Lucy, do you know me ? lam Maria Allen I was to have been your bridesmaid." I cannot say more I will not make the vain attempt to give in detail all that mournful revealing to reduce tw expressive words the dread sublimity of that hopeless sorrow. To the wretched L-iey.the la-t thirty years were as though thev had never been. Of no scene, or incident, had she the slightest remembrance, since tho recreant and trai torus lover stood before ber and made the terrible announcement. The kind matron paused frequently in the sad narrative of her poor friend's mad ness and wanderings, but the invalid would say with fearful calmness : "Go on, goon," though the drops of agony stood thick upon her forehead. When she asked for her sis ter. the matron replied : "She has gone before you, and your fath er also." "And my mother?" said Lucy, her face lit up with a sickly ray of hope. "Your mother has been dead twenty years." ' "Deid ! all gone ! Alone. old.dying ! Oh, God, my cup of bitterness is full," and she onlv wept aloud. Her frisnd bent over her, and mingled her tears with hers, and said affectionately: ''But you know who drank that cup be fore you?" Lucy looked up with a bew ildered ex pression ; and the matron added : "The Lord Jesus ; you remember him?" A look of sunlight breaking through a cloud, a look which only saints may wear, radiated the .face of the dying woman, as she replied : i "O, yes, I know Him, and loved Him be fore I fell asleep." The man of God was called. A few who had known Lucy in 'her earlier days came also. There was much reverential feeling and some weeping around her death bed. Then rose the voice of prayer. At first her lips moved as her spirit joined in the fervent appeal. 1'hen they grew 6till, and poor Lucy ' was dead dsad in her grey haired youth. Those' who gazed on that placid face, and remembering her harmless life and patient suffering, doubted : not that the morn of an eternal day had broken on her "Night of Years." Felt IIis Own Pclse. A good story is told by the Attica, Indiana, Ledger, of a physician of that place, who was called upon to visit a sick man, after he had, himself, taken a drop or two too much. Arrived at tfce bedside, he fumbled over his patient a" Utile, ami at last got hold of his own pulse, which he felt for a little while, and then, with customary medical gravity remarked, "Well, there's nothin' inuth matter wi you only a litte drink! .Jisgot' bed 'n sleep little' n you' II b' all right!" A Tennessee girl, in order to make a sure thing out of it, allowed two young men to take out a license to marry ber. , , , mt9 m - i A love that is never reciprocated neu- j ralgic affection. ' 1 Society in "Washington City. A lively correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, in a recent letter from Wash ington City, writes as follows : Our Capi'al is peculiar in its social life. It is yet, as it ever has been. so isolated that the elements incident to ordinary American life ate not much felt hero. ,. The power of wealth, for example, so potent elsewhere, dies out this side of Baltimore, and official influences take its place. When the atmos phere here was purely Southern, this official supremacy was more positive than now. Yet it exists. The highest order, socially, is the Foreign Diplomatic Cjrps. This is given, or arrogates to itself, the first position. Then we have the Senators, and Supreme Court and members of the Cabinet, nearly on a level or so near that it is doubtful, or rath cr in dispute, as to which) Jias the preference. Then we have members ot the House, and the mulptude of ininoi-officials. One has to be amused when lookinir at the little diplomatic corps that takes upon itself such an air of exclusivcness, and is looked np to with such awe and respect. Washington being regarded in European crurts as a place for honorable banishment, it being socially-undesirable, and possessed of no field fv a display of diplomatic ability, the more influential and able men of the profession shirk in dismay from a residence in our beloved Capital. Theconseqnenco is that we get ouly the lesser lights. They are a rather nice sort of men, but not the sort to worship socially, or in any other way. And in any of our larger cities this enti: 6 corps would slip through small holes, and disappear forever from public gaze. But here it is omnipotent, and rule3 its little world in a way that would be aggravating wjre it not so lud'erous. To see the corps iirall its glorr, one must attend, on opera night, at the National The ater. He will find the diplomats out in full force, and all clustered together in the chairs of the orchestra, wi;h a few,- pcrhaps,percl -ed like crows in one of the stage boxes. Be tween the pets the corps rise up and face the audience. And then they appear in all their awful glory. Taken separately, one would not be seriously oppressed, but to be attacked in diplomatic platoon is overpow ering. If one draws near, he hears a chat teiim in French, like unto so "'any jays in mass meeting. The gods of the galleries have lately taken to resenting this facing about of the little c rps, and when this diplomatic and dramat ic move occurs, a general shout of derision goes up, and cries of "D-jwn in front," "Ain't we handsome?" and imitations of the croaking of crows are heard; for owing to their somber dress, these subtle represen tatrresof effete despot isms are called erows by the gods of the gallery. The corps took this assault calmly and with superior indif ference, until a few decayed oranges and ap ples came with indications of eggs- in re serve, when the corps graecf ul!y subsided. The goda of the gallery have no response for anythiug less than Forrest or Booth, and they treat with scorn all others. f Not so, however, with society here, i was at a re ception, for example, one night last winter, and was attracted by a lovely girl, all grace and intelligence the daughter of a distin guished uicm.be- of Congress. "She must be quite a belle," I said, to a fair lady near me. "Oa! dear me, no," was tho response, "she is not ia society at all." "Whyuot?" "The diplomatic corps has not called on her." . "Is it possible? You don't say so? I'cor thing! And why does not this erudite body countenance the poor girl?" "Why, you see, where they to do so they would have to recognize the family and the father, you know. " "No, I don't know hitn.but I see. Well, well, it is a wonder she survives and looks so healthy. 1 should expect a decline. Cou'dn't they visit her under protest say, sign a protocol with an assortment of ulti matums, recognizing the belle and, giving the disreputable old father ouly billigerent rights? You shake your lovely little head. It can't be doue. It is hopeless. Poor girl!" .. . Anyone visiting Washington, possessed of a wh 1j coat, a clean shirt, and a member of Congress, can go into society at once. His power to remain depends upon his wit. It he is clever, he is acceptable. The latest comer, unofficial, I mean, makes the first calL All officials, from the -President to Syfax,set back and expect to be called upon There is a lively depute raging between memliers or the Cabinet and Senators as to which should have precedence. It is a small matter, but gives rise to some lively disputes, each party being satisfied that he or she is in the right. This sort of social life goes far toward making Washington so facinating. It is more of an intellectual social formation than io Boston, wlrcre an iron-bouud state of caste, hard as the coast sung of by Ilemans, is based on money and family ; or that of New York, where money is mixed with some brain ; or in Philadelphia, where hard cash reigns without any alloy. One breathes easi er in Washington, as if one had escaped from the suffocation of money vaults to the pure air cf heaven. It is true that the in tellect irevailing is of a political sort. But that is better than none. A Wag Tale. A certain judge baring been called on at a public meeting for a song, regretted it was not in his power to gratify the company.
