MONEY AT INTEREST.
MY AMY RANVOLPIt
" Please, sir, will you give use a penny,
only a penny ?"
" NO 7 -go along with ;. I now. give
money to street beggars."
And Mrs. Parker sat a title more erect,
if it wore possible, in her buffalo-cush
ioned wagon -seat, and grasped her blue
cotton umbrella tighter. But her hus
band, Paul Parker, on whose kindly face
the boy-turned his gaze, said :
"See here, boy ; I've only got a fifty
cent piece, and it's more money than I
ought to give away. I shall be hero at
three o'clock
,this day week, opposite
this very tavern ; will you be here to pay
it back to me ? Mind, I only lend it to
you ; and may'. be I'll be able to find
some work for you by that time."
"Yes, sir," said the boy, gleefully, as
ho scrambled up the side . of the wheel
"I will be here, sure."
"Paul Parker, you're a fool I" said
.the woman, angrily. " You scatter your
money -about as though there was noend
to it. Do you suppose you'll ever see
your fifty cents again?"
" "I hope so," said the old man, touch
ing his placid horse gently with the reins,
and urging him into a sleepy jog trot.
"I should bo sorry to think there wasn't
no trnth.in the bright c oyed little
Give the world a fair chance, that's all
I've got to say:"
The blistoring August sunshine was
pouring into alittlo garret room in ono
of the most squalid and neglected pur
lious of the town, whore a brutal-looking
man sat smoking a ,short, black pipe,
and lounged around half asleep. A hand
organ stood against the wall, and a mon
key dressed In red rags chatted in the
window. Nino's accordeon and a
thumbed tambourine lay near by; Nino
himself, with tear stained cheeks and
heavy eyelids, was crouched in a corner,
wistfully watching the door, as if re
solved to avail himself of the first chance
that', offered for escape.
. Thyro was a wild beauty about the boy
in spite of his swarthy cheeks and forlorn
uniform of rags, and an attractiveness
that was hard to understand. His brow,
overshadowed by thick black locks, was
frank and open; his eyes were soft and
liquid, and there wore both spirit and
gentleness in the well outlinodoriuth,_
Had Nino Harlan' boon the Offspring of
aristocratic lineage, he would have been
called handsome; but rags and poverty
and blows are anything but beautifying,
and Nino had known but littlo ohm. in
his.brief and sunless oicistanco.
, -Presently the man knocked the lithos
from hilt pipe and laid it down, with a
vicious long glance at the boy. •
"so y \ qu'd got fifty cents hid away,
you was going to gammon moeut of, oh 2"
- he demanded: '! You young yagabond,
I'd liko to know what you meari bylt I"
. "It was Minesobbed the boy; "I
earned it singin under the groat folks'
winders, after work lidurs was over. I
gai , e you pll I earned in the day-time; I
did."'
" Yours I" growled themau, savagely ;
"and all you enru is mine, and if over I
catch you at any such a trick again, I'll
split your head:Open for you. Where are.
you going now?, Sit down itgain."- -
'
Only out as far as -West Landhill
tavern;" said Nino,' entreatingly, as' his
eyes marked the slOUdy creeping tido of
sun Shine along the floor, that formed his
only substitute for a clock.
"Well, you won't do no ouch thing'!'
said'the man, evidently in a, moat con
trary and quarrelsome mood: " Gobaolc
to - your bench again, - do you hoar? You're
not ping to stir out o' this I)efore
'night,
and not then, unload . you behave your'.

"Hold your noise I" luntallyejaculated
his irate' keeper. "I tell you you shan't
stir another peg ; there, now I Dave," to
ono of the other hois, "give us a light
hero for this pipe."
Niuo, watching his opportunity, as a
wild beast might watch for an escape from
its cage, gave a forward dart just as the
man stooped over to rub the match
against the solo of his boot. But ho'iiras
not quite.quick enough ; his tyrant seized
him rudely by tho atm, and slung him
rudely across the room as if ho had boon
a toy. lie fell, his temple striking
against the log of a bedstead, standing
in the corner, and lay there quite insensi
ble. -

"Blest if-I don't think lie's done for,

spectators of the scene, -a boy of thirteen,
who was generally dressed as a "wander
ing Bavarian" with tambourine and bells.
" Let him alone, I say," snarled the
father: , "" teach him a lesson."'
Just then the bell in _the old square
tower 4 the town struck three.
"I told you he wouldn't be here, Paul,"
exultantly exclaimed Mrs. Parker, pro
jecting her- keen -grey oyes into every

in front of the " West-Landhill Hones' Or

Paul - Parker's countenance clouded
visibly.
"I'm sorry for it, wife—sorry from

thought ho was different from the com

The swift rolling 'years had sprinkled
their silver-blossoms more plentifully on
the head of Paul Parker, and plowed
deeper, lines in his wife's face. Tho
lit
tle girl at their fireside had grown into' a
handsome young woman. Once more we
enter the inner sandum of their lives.

shrieked.his_wifo shrilly. "And what
aro. we to do with laWyor Martin writin'

" Wo'can do nothing wife."
" Wo'shall be sold out at auction, and
die in a poorhouse. Oh, Paul, why didn't
ybu-pay MorO - heed - to what I've - always
kept tellin' you?"
"Not so bad as that, nom)," said the
old man cheerily„though the muscles of
his lip and brow quivered.
"Father is it , St. John :Martin, the
LOCCIN3 iitreot lawyer, to whom you owe
this money? •
" Yes ; what do you know about him ?"
" Not much ; but I met his son at sev
eral parties last fall, and—l think if you
wore to go there and tell him just how
it is, or write, even—',' '-
"No use," croaked Mrs. Parker, des
pairingly, " other folks ain't so ready
to lot go of their money as your father is,
Lucy."
. "May bo it's worth trying," said old
Paul, hopefully, "we'll write this very
night, and next week we'll go up to Bos
ton and see what answer hunakes us."
And then Lucy, blushing like a sweet
Pea, ran to get the pen and paper, timidly
trusting in the efficiency of her plan.
"For his father can't be vory hard
hearted," she thought, " and they aro so,
very rich that surely they Will be willing
to wait for this fivo hundred dollars un
til we can pay it."
Tho elegantly furnished little office on

MURDER A 8 A REMEDY FOR " RUIN."—
The Chicago Tribune Says the assassina
tion of Mr. A. P. Crittenden, of San
Francisco, nephew of the late John J.
Crittenden, of Kentucky, and ono of the
foremost lawyers of the Pacific coast, is
the last and lowest example of the prac
tice of murder as a cure for pretended
" ruin." The assailant in this case was
a female "high-flyer," such as, perhaps,
no Country but California could produce.
She had ruined and 'bankrupted one
husband, who after years of infatuatdd
'devotion to her, had committed suicide,
from a sensq of shame for her character
and. conduct. She had then married
again, been divorced, and married again
in California, went to fcfoxieo, and then
to Now York, as a public adventuress,
and succeeded ; confederated ivith
sharpers in numerous desperate crimes;
returned to Virginia City and opened a
"hotel ;" captured Crittenden and won
him from his f•Jelity to his family ;
marched through the street, waving the
confederate flag, daring any man to raise
the Federal flag in her presence, and
shot at one who did so ; was.defended
by Crittenden, and, through his ind
(Mee, was acquitted ; went upon the
stage and failed ; shone at balls and
'theatres ; captured a wealthy old lover,
by the name of Schneider; and married
him ; finding, after six weeks of marriage,
she could not get his money, got a di
vorce, and, a few days' after, • committed
the murder ok. Crittenden under pecu
liarly atrocohni.circumstances. Ills wife
and daughter had been absent for the
summer months, in the Atlantic States,
and Crittenden, with his two sons, one
of 25 and the other a bright boy of 12
years of ago, had come up from San
Francisco on a steamer, to Oakland,
where ho was to meet the absent ones,
whose arrival was expected by the train.
His assassin, Mrs. Schneider, alias Fair,
&e., disguised, armed, and heavily
veiled, accompanied him on the boat to
the place of meeting, watched him while
ho kissed his wife and daUghter ; watched
his children as they embraced each other
and their returning mother, and, as soon
as the steamer had started, and the
family were pleasantly seated, around
their father, on an upper deck, Walked
deliberately up to him; ,and, before her
intention -could be suspected, and so
quickly that but ono poison saw the act,
fired-wpistol within - two feet — Of his right':
breast, the ball entering with fatal effect.
Mr. Crittenden sat for a moment as if
astounded, rose. to Ids feet and foThun,
conscious to the floor. Ee died the next
day.'
His murderess glided through - the
CreAvd — on - the-hoatrand-at-first,L.appar,
ently, intended escape, but, when accused
of the crime, replied, with 'true sang
'Pad, " Y,cs, ho ruined' niei.:and my
child, pull intended to kill him." Is
this S'ample of a class of weitien who .
can prate of their ruin as a plea ter

SAMUEL B. MORSE.
, BY JAMES PARTON.
During the-voyage of the packet-ship
Sully from llavre to Novi York, in Qcto
ber, 1832, a conversation arose ono clay
in the cabin upon electricity and magnet
ism. Dr. Charles S. Jackson, of Boston;
described an experiment recently made
in Paris with" an clectro-magnet, by
means of which electricity had been trans
mitted through a great length of wire,
arranged in circles around tiitt.walls of a
large apartment. The transmission had
been instantaneous, and it seemed as
though the flight of electricity. was too
rapid to bo measured. Among the group
of passengers, no ono listened more at
tentively to Dr. Jackson's reeital than a
New York artist, named Samuel Finley
Breeco Morse, who was returning from a
three years' residence in Europe, whither
ho had gone for improvements in his art.
Painter as he was, he wa.q - tievertheless
well versed in science for which ho had
inherited an inclination. Ms father was
that once famous geographer and doctor
of divinity, of Charlestown, Massachu
setts, wboSo largo work upon geography
was to be found, half a century ago, in
almost every considerable collection of
books in America. Besides assisting his
father hi his geographical studies, Samuel
Morse - had studied chemistry at Yale
College under Professor Silliman and
'natural philosophy under Professor Day-
After graduating from'Yale, in 1810, he
wont with Washington Allston to Lon
don, where , he, received instruction in
painting from Sir Benjamin West. Re
turning to the United States in 1815, ho
pursued his vocation with so much site
•cess, that he was elected the first presi
dent of our National Academy, and•held
the office for sixteen years. In 1820 ho
wont again to Europe," for further im
provement, and it was when returning
front this visit that the conversation took
place in the cabin of tlio Sully. During
all the years of his artist life he' had re
tained his early 'love for science, and'
usually kept himself well informed of its
progress.. Hence, the eagerness with
which he listened to Dr. Jackson's nar
rative. • ••
" Why," said ho, when the Doctor had
finished, " if that is so, and the presence
of-electricity could ho made visible in
any desired part of the circuit, Isee no
reason why intelligence might net be
transmitted instantaneously by electri
city." , •
"How convenient it would be," added
one of the passengers, " if we could send
news in that manner."
"Why can't we?" asked Morse, fasoi
tPtted by the idea.'
From that hour tlie — slitijiieraempied
his thoughts, and he began forthwith to
exorcise his Yankee ingenuity. in devis
ing the requisite apparatus. yOYages

nothing to do but mediate and contrive.

The system of dots-"and 'markS, the

in' the earth after enclosing them in
tubeS, ell wore thought of and recArded
on board the packet-ship. The inven
tion, in, fact, so far'as the theory ; and the
essential devices were concerned, except
alone the idea of suspending the wires
upon posts, was
,completed on'board the
vessel.' A few days after landing„ the
plan, now universally employed, of sup
porting the twires, was thought of by the
inventor, though ho still preferred , his
original eencßitiorkof the huritid

stream, the notion had existed of using the
marvellous fluid for transmitting intelli
gence ; and long before the Sully was
launched some attempts had .been. made
in this direction, which, were not wholly,-
unsuccessful, Science had clone 'her
part. It remained for the inventor to
devise an apparatus which Would utilize

three years' residence in foreign coun
tries, is not apt to be furnished With a
great abundance of cash capital ;. no• is

in unproductive industry. nice sears
passed lieforealt. Morse had set up his
rude apparatus of half a mile of wire and
a wooden clock, adapted to th&Purpose
by his own hands, and sent 'a message
fti'om one end of his wire to the other,
legible at leatt by himself. Ile,tised tq
exhibit his apparatus now and then to
his 'friends, and he spent 'all the tithe he
could spare from his professioh in per
fectingsit. Fo• some time it was placed
in a large room of the New York Univer
sity, where, in the Fall of 1837, largo -
numberS of persons witnessed its , opera
tion.
'The invention attracted much notice
at the time, as I cair just remember.
Every one said, HMV' wonderful ! How
ingenious ! and boasted of • the progress
man was makingin science ; but scarcoly
any one belidved that the invention Could
be turned to profitable account, and no
man could be found in N))vv...lrork
'will
ing to risk his capital in putting the in
vention to a practical test. By this
time, however, Mr. Morse ,had become
fully possessed by the inventor'smania,
which shuts a man's eyes to all obstacles
and forces him to pursue his project to
the uttermost.
Having no,other resource, ho went to
Washington in - 1838, arranged his appa
ratus there, exhibited its performance . to
as, many members as ho could induce to
attend, and petitioned Congress for a
grant of public money with which„ to
make .an experimental line between
Washington and Baltimore, a distance of
forty miles. It is weary work getting a
,_griutLQL-Tuvarixon_, Cmgtg,s,s_foi such t.
purpose ; and it ought to be; for Congress
has no constitutional right to give • away
e
the people's money to test such' n in

vention. A committee xeported upon it
favor&bly, but nothing further was done
during the session. •

ernment, and capitalists were strangely
obtuse, not to the merits of the inven
tion,„ but to the probability of its being
profitable. They could not conceive
that any considerable number of persons
in the country would care to pay for th‘o
instantaneous transmission of news. Re
turning home disappointed, but not dis
couraged, ho renewed his efforts, winter
after winter, using all the influence of
his personal presence at Washington,
and all his powers of argument and per
suasion.
March the third, 1813, the last day of
the session, was come. lie attended all
day the House of Representatives; faintly
hoping that something might be done for
him before the final adjournment ; but
as the evening wore away, the pressure
and confusion increased, and at length
hope died within him, and he loft the
capitol. Ho walked sadly home, and
went to bed.
Imagine the rapture with which he
heard, on tho following morning, 1. that
Congress, late in the night, amid the roar
and stress preceding the adjournment
had voted 'him thirty thousand dollars
for constructing his experiinental line !
Eleven years and a half passed since he
had made his invention on board the ship.
Perhaps, on that morning, jip thought it
worth while tcl\skrive and suffer for so
long a period, to' enjoy the thrill and
ecstasy Which lie then experienced.
•
But his troubles were far from being
over. Clinging stilldo his original no
tion of enclosing the wires in buried
tubes ho -waisted nearly a whole year, '
and spent nearly twenty-three ithonsand
dolhirs of his appropriation in ,discover
ing that the plan would not Work. Ho
resorted at length to the systen of 'wires
suspended upon poles ; and on tho first
of May, 1844, messages were transmitted
between the two cities and the Electric
Telegraph was an acconiPliSlied fact !
Many years clasped -before -tho- inven
tion
was of much advantage to Mr. Morse.
Rival inventors entered the field, and
rival companies spoiled thobusineSs. It
was not until the consolidation' of most
of the companies into two or three, ,, that
the business of transmitting messages
by telegraph was very profitable to any
