His words of hive still vi brated in her ears, but, strange to say, there was no responsive melody in her heart, al though her lips had promised that she would become his wife. 'She was a young girl, not out of her teens—poor, beautiful, and ambi tious. Colonel Leslie was fifty—hale, gen tlemanly, and rich. He had gone to the little manufacturing village of 8— upon business, and having been enraptured with her beauty, addressed her after a short ties quaintance. A And so, whilst he was being rapidly borne to his city home, thinking of the loveliness of the, young bride he had won and his abundant means of making her happy, Mar gery sat in her little chaniber dreaming bright dreams to be ' realized in the future. ' Her fortune was made! What did it matter DOW if there had been poverty and priva tion in the past! Was not the future bright with wealth and splendor? " I shall have diamonds and laces and so ciety to my heart's content," she mused, gazing from her window in the east, where the round :rising moon looked softly into her glittering eyes. "I shall purchase them dearly, perhaps, but I shall be an eld man's darling; Colonel Leslie said so to-night as he placed ; the seal of our betrothal upon my finger. It is true that there is a ,great disparity of years between us, but I am sat isfied with the contract I have made; I shall be clothed in purple mid flue linen every day,' and if I should not be happy there will be no one to blame but myself. I shall no longer be dependent on those who be grudge me even the morsel I eat." The wedding was a quiet one. The vil lage had never seen a lovelier bride nor a happier groom, and when after a month's travel the couple took possession of abeir luxuriant home Margary again congratula ted herself on the brilliancy of herfortune. Her brighten dreams 'were meeting fulfill ment. She entered into her new' life with all the zest of her fresh, young spirit, glory ing in the beauty which had purchased her pleasures, and leaving nothing undone that could enhance her loveliness. , Colonel Leslie accompanied her ever where where she wished Jo go. " She is too young, too inexperienced for me to allow her liar freedom " he said -ea ste.s.sites„lss - tie down in the happy home I have so often pictured to myself.' .orea r ikAiVot_nuod ll .o . ow of ,tvcca rg ppeare to •Clolld the young wife's spirits. No gayety was Proposed which dist not tempt her partici pation, and to temptation met with resist ance. After.a year of patient waiting, the friv olities in which she indulged se freely be came so utterly distasteful to him that he could no longer restrain his impatience.— But friends interposed, declaring that the lovely Mrs. Leslie should not make a re cluse of herself, and offering to.accompany her wherever she wished to go. He trans ferred her, as it were, to their protection, and day after day and night after night he was left alone as mercilessly as thOpgh be had been but a hired attendant of Of house hold. Devoted as he had once been to his wife, the strength of his ardor began to abate, and beginning to believe she had married him for his wealth, he determined to restrict her gayeties in a measure. He would make overtures to her reason and judgment, and if they failed he would assert the authority which she had so seemingly ignored. He was in the library awaiting Margery's coming, as usual, upon the most brilliant entertainment of the season. An hour after midnight she entered, radiant in velvet and diamonds. He arose and offered to remove her wrappings. - "Thank you," she returned, icily, still standing, " but I shall retire immediately, and there is no need of unwrapping here!" " Just as you please," lie answered haugh tily, resuming his seat, and gazing for a mo ment into the beautiful face before him; " but I have something to bay which must be heard here and how." Margery gathered her cloak more closely about her shoulders, and resting both hands upon the back- of the chair by which she was standing; said, almost defiantly: "If you have, anything to say, please say it as quickly as possible. lam tired and have need of rest; my demtinde for to-mor row are pressing." " Aud mine, Margery, you will find; are more so. I have been trilled with and My expressed desire neglected long enough.— You will remember hereafter that I stand tirst in this household, and that my wishes are entitled to some 'Consideration." "Perhaps you had better explain," she said Contemptuously; " I do not.know that I have the honor of comprehending your remarks." " I shall certainly be more explicit then," lie answered mildly, still determined not to appear irritated by her indifference. "We have been married almost three years, Mar gery, and in all that time I hate been but s a slave to your bidding. It is true that. I em more than twice your age, but became your husband fondly believing that in your love my heart would regain its youthfulness, and that you would find comfort and happiness. in being nu ' old mans darling.' That I have been 'disappointed I freely, acknowl: edge.," that you have been I can but infer.— I realize. now the vanity of the hope which led me totunite old age with youth, since our tastes arc so dissimilar. What I have to say to you, however, is this—that 1 de sire you to relinquish, in a measure, those frivolities Which - are separating us so surely cud so utterly." Margery' looked fur a moment into his face and said: "Suppose I do not desire to renounce those pleasures which you seem to condemn so heartily?" - " Then I shall resort to that authority which, as yotir husband,-is vested in me." , "And if -I do not choose to submit to that authority?" "That is not a question to be discussed between us," he exclaimed 'emphatically, now thorougly aroused and irate. "I am master of this house, as yob. Will find to your cost. That you have never cared for me except as the representative-of the wealth which purchases your-pleasures is too plain a case to .admit of argument. But -there is one thing of which ; you may rest assured— whilst you bear my name you must remain as unsullied es when you received it. lA° not wish you to regard'me as fi brute, nor yet as a tyrants - but this continued dissipa tion must cease. lam too - old to be dragged from one scene of gayety to another, tied, as it were,- to the wheels Of yew-triumph ant chariot; and since I cannot attendyou, you must confine yourself more at home.— You can retire now, if you please, • but 're member that I expect your compliance with my wishes." Thank you for the privilegel"; she re turned sarcastically; " I shall not ' retire, however, until this question is definitely set ,„ - . T. L. BALDWIN Ss CO. I= W. 0. Burro; likntsburg, October.

Margery was sit ting alone in her elegant drawing room. whence an hundred guests had just depart-{ ed, when Colone/ -Leslie entered . hastily end' drew a chair to her side. She gathered hor trailing robes of amber satin More chisely around her, as if fearing contamination.— He noticed the movement, and exelahned apologetically: " I volved years ago, Margery, that I nev er,would again, by word or look, detract from your happiness, and faithfully 'until now have I kept that vow.

For a Inomefit Margery's heart soft ened toward him, but the next she rose up, and sweeping her eyes over the Magnificent apartment, said, bitterly: "No, no, I cannot live without them," She ascended to her chamber, - Where her maid was awaiting her coming. She wea rily submitted herself to her skillful bands; and having substituted a morning wrapper for the party robes, she dismissed her sleepy attendant, and sank into an easy chair which stood before the fire. She folded her white, jelVeled hands in her lap, and thought over, the events of the past few years. "What a vain, profitless life I have lived!" she murmured regretfully.

Margery descended to the breakfast room a different person. The elements of true womanhood had ,so long slumbered in her breast that only the rudest shock could have aroused them. With their awakening came the conviction of her unworthiness and a determination to regain the esteem she had lost. Colonel Leslie was not present the table, and to the servant' who summoned him he said: "Excuse me to your mistress, and bring me a cup of coffee. I wish nothing else." 'I will carry it to him myself," said Mar gery when she received the message, and a few.moments more she entered the library where ille was sitting. " Can I not assist you?" she said softly as she deposited the unique silver breakfast service at his side. He had pot noticed her presence before. He glanced hastily into her face, and the tears stood in his oyes. "I do not know whether you can or not," he replied almost wildly. "My brain is in a whirl. These papers," pointing to the heaps upon his either hand, "represent all I possessed. I have been here all night, Margery, and my conviction, after a thor ough investigation, is that wo are almost beggars." " You must rest now, at any rate," she said gently, "and when. you have drank your coffee we will talk our misfortunes over.'

"'You realize it all then, and your heart is net broken!" he gasped rather than asked. " You refer to the conversation that passed between tip years ago?" she inqured, the red flush mantling her Cheek and the tears gath cring in her eyes. " Yes; you told One that you would not care to live if bereft of society, and wealth. That remembrance has, been the bitterest drop in this bitter, , bitter cup." "Forget it!" she exclaimed pansienately. " Forget that I was ever so unwomanly, or so. ungrateful. Ott married life so far has proved a failure, but there is time enough to redeem it." Colonel Leslie could scarcely believe that ho heard aright. " You are not jesting with me, Margery?" " Indeed,. indeed I am not," she exclaim ed earnestly. "Although I have proved recreant to the trust )ou - ouce reposed in me, .1 am worthier To-day to 'be your wife than I was upon' .our bridal morning.

The crab had hardly descended to the depth of two feet before an octopus for which it was not intended and which I had not observed (so exactly bad he assumed the hue of the surfade to which he clung) shot out like a rocket from one side of the tank, opened his membranous umbrella, shut up the suspended crab within it, and darted back again to the 10.dge of rock on which he bad been lying . in ambush.

It was withdrawn; from his reach; and so, at last, he turned out of bed, rtshed at it, and got it under him against the plate-glass, just as I desired. lii a sec ond the crab was completely pinioned. Not a movement, not a struggle was visible or possible; each leg, each claw, was grasped all over by suckers—infolded in them—and stretched out to its full extent by them.-- The back of the carapace was covered all over with the tenacious vacutim=dislcs, brought together by the • adaptable contrac tion of the limb, and ranged in close order, shoulder to shoulder, touclikng each other; while, between others, which dragged the abdominal plates toward the mouth, the black tip of the hard, horny beak Was seen for a single instant protruding from the cir cular orifice in the center of the radiation of the arms, :lid the next had crunched through the shell, and was - buried deep in he flesh of the victim.

Arsenic could be detected 'if only the hundredth part of a grain was deposited, and Professor Davy has recorded that in some instances he chuld appreciate, the two thousand five hundredth part of, a grain lik; the applica tion of appropriate tests. Another advantage of this method is that these minute quantities can be detected even when mixed with Ordinary articles of diet, such as wheaten flour, bread, starch, rice, potatoes, sugar, vinegar, eggs, gelatine, gruel, various kinds of wine, and alsointhe saliva and bile.
