If, 'in walking with Edith, he saw her step aside to avoid in ant-hill. he would take par- ticular pains to'go backend grind it lev el with his ugly heel: He would coun terfeit drunkenness so naturally as to bring, the foolish child 'into tears; and, indeed r there was no conceivable enormi ty. short of knockingher doWn with MA. ice prepense, that he did not practice. All this, he assured her was "in joke; " and when he wound. up his obstreperous feats with tilt of laughter Its boisterous as his jokes, Edith would faintly laugh too, while tears stood in her ayes. Poor Edith! She wondered if all men were like Jack Robinson—but she-dared not ask. Others treated - her *ith defer- ential civility; and ensile remembered did Jack once, but that was before he was a declared and accepted lover; and she more than half wished that she uad always kept him on terms is distant. But just as she had reasoned herself into half hating hint, he would always regain his stand ing by some real -proof of affection, un studied and perhaps unrefined on his part, and unexpected on hers. What could she do with such an awkward cubof a lov er? Hate and dismiss him she could not; for his very gaucheries had become tolerable acid even pleasant to her. - The match was something like the affection of.the bride of the bandit for her lord. Jack was a bandit in manners, and be hanged whin, with not half the refine ment the, a real genteel romance or s tage free-hooter throws into his love passages. The :de., of being yoked fur life to such an tuirtfut tiled gilfiln would sewn terrible to her, in spite of ali her efforts to the contrary. It certainly did to her friends; but when they began to tell her so, Edith showed all the woman—declared that Jack was a great deal better than those who maligned him—that unpolished worth and sense was better than varnish- ed villainy—and that she, would marry tim_were he tws.ot.y. times Jack Maim_ sun. To this there was no answer, and the dear friends of Edith only sighed and shruggeu their shoulders, while she se rutted out of the room like a stags. bowl. cer. Gentle women CAN show tire some times—and when they. do!—Let those who know. speak. Jack was a great lover of aquatic amuse ments. Besides his inewbershio of a boat club, he hoisted the poses:moon of' various aeseriptious of a small water craft, his pride in 'which was only second to his loudness of his horses, if even to that. Just at a umuiept when Edith had been resenting the interference of her friends in Jack's disfavor, that worthy wade his appearance, and invited her to -take a water excursion with him. This, which was a standing invitation in the boating season, she always resolutely declined. She looked "up, as Robinson put the question, and saw the malicious smiles of her friends, which plainly intimated that they knew she dare not accept. To atop to think—to gratify them by a moment's hesitation, her pride would not permit ; and to Jack's surprise and pleasure, she, l accepted his invitation at, once. She onlyintimated to him, as they passed to the water side, that she acceded to the jaunt, to show he friends that she was not afraid to trust herself to his guidance, under any circumstances.. The rascal ! not to heed this delicate and maidenly appeal to his generosity to spare her fears. _ _ To do Robinson justice, he intended to respect her timidity, and to forbear, for once, to make it the butt of his rogue ry. On the very point ofembarkation the temptation to break over -hie good resolution almost mastered him. Ilia man Friday, who was in waiting on board, regarded them, as they stepped into the boat, with such a confident anticipation of " fun," that Jaok regretted his good resolution, As the sail was spread to the breeze, and the little barque careened tinder it, his determination to spare EdiZ became weaker and weaker, u abe_be. • gad to return, or " sail slower.' She clung to -the windivard side wit the agony of -a drowning woman, and Jack,, who would have laid down his life for her at that moment, had such a sacrifice been necessary, made no scruple to laugh at her misery—for what is more miserable, more ' tormenting than tear? Step . by step they advanced, Jack and his man Friday, in the audacity of what they. Balled such " good fun." They rocked the tittle 'shallop ill- Edith screamed, and at last almost fainted with terror; and they steered sous to cause a, dash of spray from the bow to'. thervstern, and frighten the poor girl with the idea' that 'the boat Was going under. .

II Address of the Republican State Committee. " [The extreme length of this document renders its adtuission in our columns en tire very ioconvenient at present, but we herewith give the most important , portions of', it comprising More than . half of the ad dress. The entire address is able and statesmanlike, and we regret that we can not publish it entire.— ED. - JOURNAL.] To the People of! Pennsylvania: The State Committee appointed by the ConveLtion of Delegates representing the People's Party of this Commonwealth which met at Harrisburg on - the 9th thy of .tune last, was this respectful address to You on the condition of the _public af lain of the country, and the questions which invite your deliberate consideration in v:ew of the approaching annual elec tion. The ballet box is the instrument thrimoh which the. People exercise their sovereignty over the governments of the State and Union; and every recurrence of an opportunity for them to mph)) , this power, and discharge the correlative duty which it involves, is an occasion which calls then to a careful examination of the course of condua of those wham they have deputed official functions, and to a determination respecting the principles and measures which should be recognized and adopted iu the adiniuistrtition of their republican institutions. These repose for their safety on the vig ilant s ipervision of thepeople fur whose nefit, and by whose authority they have been established; and unless the popular masses exercise .over them a constant watch and care, they are liable to be perverted in the: hands.ofselfl seeking and unfaithful agents, to the base uses of private advantage or merely par tisan, and even enriupt designs. Protec tion. is the great purpose for which gov ernments are instituted. When men re- Sign a part of their natural liberty, and enter into a political compact, it , is that th privileges which belong to them, as mem bers of the State. It, becomes, therefore, the first duty of those who are charged with the administration of governineut, to guard the rights, protect the interests, and promote the welfare of the great body of citizens.
