Miscellaneous. yERY SHORT STORY In MY ill-health I have had a dream or vision, and I meant° tell it. , Prelude, there is none required, so I shall begin. I dreaint that my wife and I Were sit ting alone in the breakfast room in the wide Amuse we inhabit. Marian had given me my cup of coffee not in , the most gracious of moods; it was hardly her fault, I confess, for I had been bard to please this particular morning. - We went to,a party - last evening ; we went because we were asked—not because we wished to go. - Marian thonghtwe ought net to refuse, so I consented, ready -to humor her. She does not like to give up the society to which she has been accustomed, and I cannot force 'her to do so. I'Ve went; and we came back in a bad temper. Somehow or other, we have had more differences—l will not .say squabbles—of late than I have ever known before. And yet 'cannot accuse Marian of being generally ill-natured, or ever pifssionate. And for myself, there used to be people with whom I could agree perfectly—perhaps there are now, somewhere. It seems that my wife and I don't get on together as well as wife and husband should. What can be the cause ; Alas; there is not much difficulty in assigning a cause. The reason is not far to seek.: 1 am confessing to myself that which I dare nottellmy nearest friends; Marian was never meant for me, and I Mites nex.m_meant for Marian- , me. do - oortake advice-too-often—that is not the way of the world—butl think Itook advice on one occasion, the mostimpor tant of all my life, when I ought to have decided for m3-self. • I was not very rich, and perhaps not very wise, and friends of mine consid ered that as Marian was both, I could obtain no more suitable wife.- They thought that she and I were exactly fit ted each for the other. She rich, I with a very moderate fortune; I not very wise; she certainly not foolish. I sup pose both of Us knew something of the world; Marian at any rate, knew quite as much of it as I wished my wife to know. There was somebody else for whom I had a preference; somebody else whose merest word" filled my heart with joy, whenever I was lucky enough to hear it; whose lightesttouclithrilledthrough my frame. I knew her perfectly well; I recognized each tone of the varying voice. Over that face of hers no :ex presshin that was new to me could pss. I knew that all so well that each 'ex pression was but as another page of a well-loved, well-remembered book—a book that could not open but I knew the place. The girl's name was Ethel; and she Was the only girl I had ever loved. When her gray eyes—pure, deep, serene —fell upon my own, the light of them entered into my very soul. I thought I would have given my life, with all the years that lay before me; given all my. prospects and hopes—such as they were —to know that that girl wasmine. For her sake I thought I could have met death willingly. I thought so then; but, my God, Thou knowest that I de ceived myself—that my strength failed me in the trial hour I passed through. Thou knowest that Ishrunk, conquered. I wanted to have Ethel for my own, and I said so. It was opposed. I spoke more strongly; but the opposition be came stronger too. Anxiety did its work.. 111-health came upon me. -And in an evil moment—that I curse (in wardly I remember) to this hour—l yielded. A month or two afterward Marian was my wife. I resolved to do by her as well as I could; I shouldhave been a brute to think ofdoiug otherwise. She should have no cause to complain if I could help it. Henceforth she and I were to live together, each for the other. Henceforth Ethel was nothing to me —nothing. ' Was that possible? I thought it possible then ; secure of the victory which mind might gain over heart. There were good reasons— plausible :reasons, at least—for my mar rying Marian ; and as I had made the bargain I would keep it. I had perfect confidence that my wife would do her part.: She had always commanded my respect; but my love- 7 that • is ' quite another affair. - For as the poet, the greatest poet of Our day, says : - SEM But we got along pretty well together —Marian and I. Our life, looked at by itself, was not so very miserable• but compared with the life that might have been mine with Ethel, it was not life at all. Still it went on, and kept its even tenor. The passing days brought with them what are considered pleasures—for me, I hardly found them pleasures at all. The passing days brought with them no acute pain; there was only a dull aching at my heart—a void that nothing was likely to fill. Isupposed I had forgotten Ethel. But I found that I had not; and I found it out on the morning that we sat at breakfast together—Marian and I—as I said at the beginning of these words I am writing. Marian knew nothing about her; she had scarcely heard her name; and if by chance she should hear it, she knew of no reason for keeping it from me. My wife reads the Morning Post daily at breakfast time; and she tells me some of its contents, as I dawdle over my cof fee. On the morning lam speaking of, she read.two or three paragraphs to me. The last she read happened to be the first that caught, my atteAffon. it was fhe following •• - . "'We iniiieistand that a 'marriage has OLD FOLKS FOREWARNED How is It under our control To lore or not to love been arranged between Capt, Cecil of the 110th Regiment, son of Bernard Cecil, Esq., of Boddington Park, Bucks, and'Miss Ethel Webbe, only daughter of Algernon Webbe, Esq., of Inverness Terrace, Hyde Park." The sudden mention of her name, and the intelligence that accompanied it, made my heart stop beating at first and then set it throbbing with a rush of blood to my cheek and brow. My wife looked at me, and afterward limited at my wife. She must have read the story in the expression of my face at that mo ment, I felt that my old love for Ethel was confessed, obvious, undeniable. Bur what was there to desire to deny? A man seldom marries the first woman for whom he cares. A man's wilt" will think' no worse of him when she knows he has had other attachments; but then these attachments should not be lasting. 'Your wife will scarcely care even to pity your queen dethroned ; but if, ;in your inmost heart, that queen reigns still, your wife—in discovering the fact,-will waste no love 'upon her. co I thought—if I thought at Marian looked at me across the break fast table. And I thought, also, what a wretched failure this had been, this -joining of hands—for Marian and for me—when the hearts could never be joined! Our lives had been different from the beginning; and reality, if not in appearance, they must be different to the end. True union we might look for, seek after, but in vain. Where two lives juju there is oft a rear Where our lives were patched togeth er the scar was broad and deep; and now and again the old wound was touched, pierced to the ugly core of it, by the sturring of such a - memory as had been shirred to-day. • AndE.4el.

He would never know the worth of her— she, who was as purebf soul as sound of body. Nevertheless he must have her. The fact remained. For me there was no chance whatever now. I was too late by a year or so of wedded life (and hap piness) with Marian. _ there was the paragraph in The Morning Po 31; and there would be the church ceremo nial, the breakfast, the departure. It was too awful a thought to bear in si lence. Marian saw that.

BY AN OBSERVER At this time, when thousands ate about to start out in search of new homes,when the fertile plains and wood lands of the west are rapidly filling up with actual settlers, and when the best of .these lauds are being bought, or "filed on" as homesteads by emigrants, (mainly from Europe, so far as Minneso ta is concerned)a word concerning the merits and demerits of this State may not be out of place. The writer of this article was in the State early in September last, and had a fair opportunity of seeing the various crops either before or just after harvest, of seeing also the degree of cultivation deemed necessary by the settlers to produce the crops, and was at some pains to ascertain average costs and yields per acre, as compared with older States. Such a blessed thing as perfec tion in all points does not belong to any State or country so far as known, and Minnesota is not Utopia, although it has its strong points in favor of the set tler ; whether these are more than sul4l-1 cient to offset the drawbacks, is a ques tion every emigrant must decide for himself. And firstly, as to the disadvantages To put it Mildly, we may say that the winters are cold, long, and hard. It is no uncommon occurrence for the mer cury to freeze during a " cold snap," and the thermometer has been known to indicate 56' below zero at St. Paul, while farther north the cold was still more intense; but this was very unu sual, even for Minnesota. Last winter was a very cold one and the coldest point reached was 46' below 0 on the open prairie, while in the timber it was milder by 10 degrees. Yet, men worked in the lumber woods during the coldest weather, and came through without a frost bite, having suffered less, as they declared, than while working in the open air at the east with the weather 30° warmer. This is owing to the dry ness of the atmosphere as well as its be ing more fully supplied with oxygen ; but after all, the intense cold is a -draw back, and no light one either. Another drawback is the abundance and viru lence of poisonous insects. An intelli gent settler who had been sonic ten years in the State told me that if he could have all the nuisances in the State placed in two budgets, one of which should contain storms, tornadoes, cold and drought, the other to contain only mosquitoes, he wonld gladly ban ish the latter, and accept the rest with thankfulness. They are a torment, from early dawn until dark, but no lon ger; for, unlike our own, they have the decency to retire at early bed time, and do not present their bills after business hours. The wood-ticks, of which there are three varieties, need watchfulness, and care in extracting, but they are on ly dreaded by women and children; one variety with a dark, oblong body, is to some extent poisonous, and - I have seen a lady, who pulled one hastily from her arm last June—with the arm still un healed in December. The storms of Minnesota are some times fearful. They are usually aeconi panied by almost incessant 11m3lies of lightning and continual, crashing peal, of thunder that are a little trying to weak nerves, but the damage by -itorm.. is much less, and the storms are des vi olent, than in Illinois, lowa, Wisconsin, or Nebraska. There are no instance.3of 1 entire villages destroyed by tornadoe. in this State, as has been done in \Vis cousin and lowa. The State is notoriou4 well Ara erod, and yet, a farmer going from among the exuberant spring's and streams of norili em Pennsylvania would be apt to tind fault on that point. The small streams are often marshy, trifling affairs,,diill cult to get at even in warm weather, and of little avail when the ice is throe or four feet thick; the "Jame and NO. 4. lakes too, are often unavailable, and, on a majority of farms more or less re sort must be had to the well, with has all farmers know is a tedious mule watering stock, especially as the wells are all more or less liable to in e4e.— Then, the wateris hard, ice!) hard, and must be softened before it will do to wash with; and the lakes and streams furnish water to the full as hard the wells. This of course is a trial to the patience of housekeepers. On the w hole, however, the country is well watered, anti one thing can be said of it that cannot be said of the water of any other western State; it is all, even the water in the slues and marshes, free from mi asmatic poison and wholesome Marin k. Now, these disadvantages may be troublesome and annoying, but they are such as may be fared and " got along with" by people of ordinary Yankee thrift and energy, while the main ad vantages desired by emigrants are to he found, perhaps, in as great perfection in thiS 'z-,tate as at any other point of emigration. Firstly, a; to climate. Health:t, ,to -t decidedly so. There is no disease inci dent to thisclimate, except rheumatism, to which hard working men are mete or less subject, as they are in all cold countries, and no more so in Minnesota than in northern Pennsylvania. I found a large proportion of the older settlers who had been induced to emigrate to that particular region in the hope of re gaining lost health, and in almost e% cry instance the hope had been reali7eil.— Many who had dragged them-elves thither from the east so enfeebled a, to be utterly incapacitated for work, men tat and physical, are now robust, healthy and energetic, and of course loud In their praises of the land which has elv en them a new lease of life. To the in dividual who is troubled with incipient asthma, bronchitis, catarrhal affection, or any of the various throat and lima disorders supposed to be induci‘ e consumption, Minnesota holds out more of premise than an entire medical col lege; but to the man who really ha dis eased lungs, the climate is generall', :A tli/ in a marvelously short time " be cause," said an old settler, "our air is too strong and healthy for tutscei'er/ lungs—it melts 'em down." Thereto= a quaint shrewdness in the remark that came near the truth. Of all calmmtie-- that can befall a family of emig eant. , sickness in a land of strangers, and lar from medical aid at that, is about the worst; and other things being equal, the healthiest location is the te.,l lion. Minnesota is a healthy State be yond all dispute. Secondly, as to soil. Of the best ; this is freely_ admitted by ,all good who are at all conversant with it. The area of successful wheat 01110v:thou being rapidly circumscribed by exhaus tion of the silica and lime neves-eat . t to the growth of straw and kernel, but above all to the ravages of insects, in all the older wheat growing States. 11, Genesee Valley, Onondaga district, hawk Valley, and many other on. - mous N't heat regions have long silt c be come faihires, wholly or in part, as that cereal is concerned, and Plinio-, Indiana, Missouri and Ohio, give ,iieh uncertain returns, to the wheat elm , . sr thatthe farmers almost universally la fer to plant corn__„_. .but _Mirint ; ota Stith a ttithen failure of a heat ells is almost unknown. From Blue Ell iii county far away to the north, from •-t. Peter to St. Clonal - from New Vim to Pembina, and from thE 4 AI - Misfit:to to to the Red River of the north, the!, is but one report from the wheat-grosi heavy crops, supc crops, and no cle: , t.:r t ire insects, save grasshoppers; a Lich last, although numerous enough to ea:- cite alarm among farmers, have iiet io terfered materially with the wheat r ror as yet. It is no exaggeration to say ill•it a farmer who cultivates carefulbt harvests without unnecessary wa-t fairly base his calculations on thirty-feet bushels to the acre of plump - sin i"^ wheat, while live bushels more ic the acre are not unfrequently grown cultivators. 'Winter wheat is an taro crop on the prairie, and, alththigh it usually does well in the timber, -p; wheat is mostly preferred. (concluded next L'ea•-1 MAUGITRAL ADDRESS OF JOHN W.
