Pippin stratehed upon his violin with so much
vigor, that the town-crier's voioe was drowned
in the sound. At this moment Miss

usual custom, she commenced singing her even

“Hark my love; my darling dove," echoed
Pippin f,ow the window.
Miss Spindle's intlignati.ln was at its height,
she thrust her head through the open window,
and was about to vent her rage upon the town
crier, when Mr. Van Dam, opened his window
The town-crier, thereupon effected his escape.
"Neighbor," said Van Dam, looking up to
Pippin, who was still continuing his song. "Gui

"And interrupt people in their religious med

"They are gone at last," said Eager, aoudad,
ing Roes from their hid* place.
"But we must go also. To-morrow you must
speak again to my father If the worst comes
to the worst I shall emphatically refuae to obey
them, in regard to my marriage with Pippin.—

"Good night Bon; but you will not refuse me

1"A pressure of the band is more than enough.
There, now good night." As Ross was about
to enter the house she caught a glimpse of a lan
tern which was rapidly approaching the spot
"Alas!" cried she, "there conies some one else.
!e will be here before we can both enter the
house safely. Quick, quick, we must play hide
and seek once more."
No owner had they safely concealed them
selves behind the lamp post than Klaus law,
the grocer, out of breath with hard running, and
apparently in a high state of excitement, ran up
to the door of the Burgomaster's house and sa
luted it with a multitude of double knocks.
The following is an account of the daily life
of a Creole family in the town of Santa Crux,
the capital of the Bolivian department of that
name It is from Lieut. Gibbons' Report of the
Exploration of the Amazon For a lacy man,
Santa Crux de Bolivia must be a perfect pars
do•e, to say nothing of a chance a bachelor has
of being able to secure a partner in a city where
there are five women to one men.
"Very early in the ['writing the Creole, getting
out of bed, throws himself Into a hamac; his wife
stretches herself upon a bed near by, while the
children seat themselves with their legs under
them on the chairs, all in their night dresses.
The Indian servant girls enters with a cup of
chocolate for each member of the family after
which she brings some coals of fire in a silver
dish. Thee wife lights her husband a cigar, then
one for herself Some time is spent reclining,
chatting, and regaling The man slowly puts
on his cotton trowsers, woolen coat, leather shoes,
and victims hat, with his neck exposed to the
fresh air—silk handkerohlefsaresearce—he walks
to some near neighbors, with whom be again
drinks chocolate and smokes another cigar.
At mid-day a small low table is set in the mid
dle of the room, and the family go to breakfast
Th.• wife sits next to her husband; the women
are very pretty and affectionate to their husbands.
He chooses her from among five, there being
lbout the number of women to one man in the
town The children seat themselves, and the
.logs form a ring behind The first dish is a
ehupe of potatoes with large pieces of meat The
man helps himself first, and throws his bones
straight across the table; a child dodges his head
to give it a free passage, and the dogs rash after
it no i t falls upou the ground floor A child
then throws his b tie, the mother dodges and the
dogs rush behind her Tug second dish bolds
pisses of beef withost bones. Dogs are
now lighting Next comes a dish with a finely
clopped beef-, then beef soap, vegetable, and
fruits; bually, coffee or chocolate. After break
fast, thi luau pulls on his trowsurs and coat, and
lies down with his draw , r a in th e t isane . His
wife lights him a cigar She finds her way bad:
t., t._.l with a cigar The doge jump up and lie
Na the chairs—the fleas bit e them on this
gTound'.----Tho Indian girl clones both doors and
windows, and takes the children ont to play whil e
the rest of the family sleep
P M., the ehnreh bells ring to let the
people know that the priest was slying a prayer
for them, which rouses them. The man rises,
and stretches his baud above his head and gapes;
the dogs get down, and whinin i gly stretch thetu
st.lves; while the wife sits up in bed and loudly
calls out for fire; the Indian girl reapears with a
"chunk" for her anzaresa to light her master au
other cigar, and smokes again herself. The din
tier, which takes place between 8 and 5. is near
ly the same as breakfast, except when a beef is
recently killed by the Indians, when they have
a boil. The ribs and other long bones of the
animal are trimwd of flesh, leaving the bones
only coated with meat; these are laid across •
fire and reast...Kl ; the members of the family,
while employed with them, look as if all were prac
tising music.
A horse is brought into the house by an Indian
Man, who holds while the 'patron" ~a ddles and
bridles him; be then puts on a large pair of silver
spurs, which costs forty dollars, and mounting.
he rides out of the front door to the opposite
house; halting, he takes off hie hat and calls out
" Buenas tardes, senoritas,"—good everting la
dies The ladies make their appesianen at the
door; one lights him a cigar, souther mixes
im a glass of lemonade to refresh himself after
the ride He remains in the saddle, talking
while they lean gracefully against the door posts,
smiling with their bewitching eyes. After spend.
ing the afternoon in this way, he rides into the
house again. The Indian holds the horse by the
bridle while the master dismounts. Taking off
the saddle he throws it into one chair, the bridle
into another, his spurs on • third; and himself
into the hamac; the Indian leads out the boric,
the dogs pull down the riding gear to the Boor,
and lay themselves on their usual bedsteads.
Chocolate and cigars are repeated.
Mu. PAB.TINGTON INDIGNANT.—The shadow
of something dark fell oa the paper we were
perusing on Saturday and looking up, the black
bonnet of Mrs Partington brooded above our
head like a detached thunder cloud We saw at
ends that something was wrong. The brow of
the thane was troubled like a mountain lake in
November, her eye, in the cavernous gloom of
the bonnet, seemed unwontedly brilliant, her
voice was tremulous as though pent feeling were
struggling with some philosophical thumb that
was holding it back. "See here," she said at
length, and laid a Tr scrips before us, much
soiled an 4 crumbled, as if ashamed of itself; "see
here," pointing to a paragraph insinuating that
it was Mrs. Partiugton and not Mrs Patterson
that had been uiscovered at Lowell; "I can be
.ontentiousaud unmovable under most of things,"
said silo, "but this is an importation that I

In the tiller of Ciatville in one of the north
ern counties of England, they* lived, souse years
since, a man named Rushton, a miller by ooeu
pition, s quiet, good-natured man, and thrifty
in his business. Rob was very intimately known
by the whole neighborhood, for his mill was the
only good one about, in the region of Mt-
Tine. •
Rushton had no ohidren, and for several years
after his mact t ago the miller and his wife got
along nicely, without any domestic, living fru
gally and happily. At last, there came along an
old bachelor by the name of Henry Rlessner,
who desired to take lodgings with them. He
was well to do in the world, and desired only
a quiet home; his money was safely invested,
and he had had enough of the confusion of town
life. The terms were agreed upon, and Bless
tier took up his abode at the "Pond House," as
Rushton called his residence.
Soon after, the miller's wife found the care of
her family too great for her, and a servant was
taken inw the house to assist her, to whom bat
trifling wages were paid. It was soon found
that Betsey Ransom was not what she mistaken
for She would lie, when she committed Its,
and she was not over-industrious in her inclina
tions. But CLatville was an out of the way
place, and the wife of Rushton could not do bet
ter; so she managed as best she could, and con
tinued to retain the girl who 9009 became ac
quainted with a dissolute man employed at the
neighboring inn, who visited her often at the
Pond Howse.
"Where did you get acquained with this man
Easton'" asked the miller's wife, one day of
Betsey, alluding to the visits of this fellow
•''ere in town,- ma'am," said the girl.
"And did you never see him , until you came
to Clatville, to live with me?" continued Mrs
Rushton.
"No ma'am—never in my life "
" Mr. Rushton says he is not a very respec
table person. And bethinks you would be bet
ter off, if you did not permit him to visit you
here."
"If some people I could mute would mind
their own affairs—l don't mean you m..'atu
—they'd get along better, I'm thinking," re
plied Betsey, rudely, and Mrs Rushton turned
sway.
A week afterwards the miller and hu► wife
went over to the shire town, ,Ju a temporary vis
it, and returning home at a late hour in the dly,
lost the way, mistaking the road After riding
some miles after dark, the miller discovered his
mistake, and turned homeward octet: more, where
he did nut arrive until near midnight.

"She sleeps soundly, o 4 soy word," sugge,ted
the miller's wile

"By Jove!" he exclaimed, picking up his
portly person again, "the door wd,u't hz.tot_ll

"Why didn't you try the handle, tirit, then'
queried his wife.
"I s'p•,sed it was locked, of course, at.

"Abed," suggested Mrs. R.
"See, then, if she be; I've made now enough
to wake a dead man. Go see then if she's in.
More'n likely she's taken her chance to be .ff
with that spark of her's Easton "
Mrs. Rushton went to the girl's room, but it
was vacant. She came down, and the miller then
went to his boarder's apartment, to saoertain if
be where there—when, a moment afterwards, h 6
wife was astounded to hear him shriek out for
tier,'as,she came to the door of Bleasner's bed:
room
"Quick, Esther: Blessner's desd--inurelered!
Quick !"
And stare enough; when the light came, there
lay Henry Blesaner's dead body on the floor,
his room in disorder, his clothes lying about,
and ample evidence ex.:Aitig that there had
been a struggle there; but the man was stiff and
cold!
While they stood transfixed with terror and
amasement at this sight (the miller having taken
hold of the body to turn it to the light,) foot
steps were heard below, and three or four of the
neighbors, headed by Betsey, name dashing up
the stairs and into thii , rooat where the murdered
man lay in his gore
"There he is ," yelled Betsey. "That's the
murderer—and his wife's close by.—Here she ,
is," continued the servant girl, drawing forth the
miller's wife, who had, almost unconsciously
stepped into a side room, a moment before.
"They killed him for hie money and watch.
Hold on to 'em, she continued, wildly, and jump
ing down stairs, she instancy returned with. the
overcoat whieh the miller had thrown off below
1/14 he came into the house
"Examine for yourselves," she added vicious
ly. And upon turning out the breast pocket,
the dead man's watch, and a bundle of papers
belonging to Blessner, were discovered there.
The miller didn't speak ! He couldn't utter a
syllable! Hie wife turned pale, moaned, and
fainting, fell upon the chamber floor.
"See, see!" screamed Betsey, with raving
triumph, "see the blood here, on his hands and
sleeve!' and there it was too, fresh and clear
as broad daylight. Rushton had moved the
body, and had thus stained his hands unwit
tingly.
The miller's horse had not yet been taken out
of the wagon, and the remainder of that fearful
night was passed by Rushton and his wife in (dose
coafumment. The neighbors seised them, put
them into their own vehicle: and drove them
four miles away to the nearest jail! They were
examitied the next day, the evident,e of the girl
was heard, and the cirutunktainoes were recoun
ted than had been witnessed by the neighbors,
and they were imprisoned at ones, and without
touch pity, to be tried at a future day for the
murder.
At the expiration of seven weary weeks, true
bills were found by the grand jury against them;
they were duly indicted, and a few days after
they were separately pat upon trial for their
lives, the ease of the husband oaring up first
&mitten wee pissed at the bar, slid he pleaded
"not guilty," in $ clear, Deady voice. He had
leisure for reflection since the night of the. mur
der, sail hie counsel had been faithfully Wombed
of all the eireanistanees of the ease, so hr as be
knew anythiag about then. He now appeared
calm and self possessed, but the chances were de
cidedly against him.
The prosecution proved, by Betsey Ransom,
that the prisoner and the deceased had held fre
quent private conferences about sentry makes,
which she had overheard, unknown to them. It
was oleo Armed, through her, that the nil•
ler sad his wife had come hose on that night
two hours prior to her giving the alarm, sad that
the horse had been left before the hems door,
where he vas found, only ma ruse. It was pree
ad that Ambles had started from...sown at a cer
tain laser, and that he ought to *lave bees at
home quite as soon as the period of his arrival
there, thus sworn by the servant girl. The watch
and papers found in the prisoner's pocket, were
identified as Blessnees property; and his bloody
bands was the final turning point against him.
To certain questions put to Betsey by the de
fendant's counsel, she stated that she was but
little secrainted with a young man named Eas
ton. She had seen him—knew who was meant
—but bad not for three or four days prior to the
murder. She hadn't seen him since, either:—
Then the defence of Rushton was entered upon,
with an earnestness creditable to his able coun
sel.
Five witnesses were produced to prove the girl
liar, to commence with. It was shown that
she was in Easton's company at nine o'clock on
the night of the miller's absence from home. A
trunk of her's bad been left by Easton, at the
stage-horse whence he proposed to take a passage
for Conway, early the next morning after the
death of Blessner, but which he forgot to call for!
and which being broken open, was found to con
tain all the money Blamer was supposed to
have had with him at the time of the murder—,
the note- on the county bank having been iden
tified by the cashier who paid them to him on
that very day! In this trunk were also some
trinkets and light articles of wearing apparel
known to have belonged to Betsey and to Eas
ton. A farmer came forward and swore that he
saw the prisoner twelve miles distant from Clat
rine at half-past ten o'clock, on the night desig
nated, where he had evidently lost his way, and
that he directed him back towards the mill. It
was shown to the satisfaction to the court and
jury that Rushton's horse was incapable of trav
eling over 7 milesn honr,st the best, and when the
dead man was discovered by the neighbors, the
body was cold. This was about half-past twelve
at night.
The counsel made their pleas, the prisoner was
permitted to hake his own statement to the ju
ry, and a verdict was given within half an hour
afterwards.
"Not guilty:" replied the foreman clearly, in
response to the clerk's call. And fifteen
minutes afterwards, Rushton and his wife were
in each other's arms—the government attorney
hating not pros'd the indictment against her
Betsey Ransom was instantly seized, and taken
before a magistrate, now charged with being an
accessory to the murder. In her desperate fright,
she confessed to having perjured herself before
the court, and that she placed the watch and pa
pers in the miller's coat, after he came into the
house. That, though she did not see Messner
killed, she knew that Easton went up to his room,
she saw him come down again, heard the scuffle,
and was aware that he had got the man's money.
Within a fortnight, Eaton was arrested, tried
and convicted, and eventually both himself and
his guilty associate, the wretched Betsey, were
trutisported for lire to the British penal colony.
The miller returned to his dwelling again,
and the sympathy of the public deservedly turn
ed in hie favor at once But he was disheartened,
and he could not bear to remain at the old place,
after the dreadful scene that bad occurred there-.
It was a good farm, his business was excellent,
and ho had made money Soon after he came
back, in triumph, at his honorable equittal, he
had an offer for the estate, which he accepted,
and with his wife he departed for one of the
southern counties of England, where he Alyea af
