"Albert,' ~yop let me
have seventy-live cents.' 3 .
Kate Landman spoke:very carefully,
for she knew that her,husband had Dot
much money to spare; yet • she 'Spoke
earnestly, and there was a world of en
treaty in her look.
"What do you want seventy-five
cents for?" asked Albert.
==
' want to get some braid for my new
dress." .
"1 thought you had the materials all
on hand for that."
"So' I thought 1 had : but Mrs. Smith
and Mali. Thompson both have a trim
ming of braid upon theirs, audit looks pretty. Ibis very fashionable, and
it certainly adds much to the looks of
The dress.'
"Plague take these women's fashions.

gigs east more than the dress is Worth!
It's nothing but shell out money when
once a woman thinks of a new dress."
“Surely, I don!t have so many new
dress:es. . 7 do certainly 'try to be as
economical as rean:” '
"It's a funny kind of economy, at all
events. BLit if On must have it, I sup
pose you must." -;
'And Albert Landman took out his
wallet, and counted - outtheseventy4tlve
cents ;• but ho gave sit grudgingly, and
When he put the w a llet, mica. 11110 His
pocket he did 'it; with -an' emphasiS
which seemed to say that he wouldn't
take it out again for a week.
When Albert reached the outer 'dOor,
on his way to his work, he found .the
weather so threatening that he! conclu
ded to go back and get his umbrella;
and upon re-entering the
: sitting room
he found his wife in tears. She tried to,
hide the act that she had been weep
ing, but he had caught her ih the act,
and asked what it meant,
"Good gracious?" cried the husband,
"I should like to know if you are ery
ink at what I said about the dress." •'
"1 wasn't crying at what you said;
Albert," replied Kate, tremulously;
"but you Were so reluctant to grant me
the favor. I was thinking .how hard
I have to Work ; Tani tied to the house;
how many little things 1 have to Per
plex, me—and then to think—"
"Pshawl . What do .you want to be
so foolish_for;"' .
And aw - ay , started Albert:Landriiinn
second time, but he was not 'tueseape so
easily: Ijn the'hall he was met by 'his
daughter 'Lizzie, a 'biight-eyed; rosy
cheeked girl of ten years.
"0 papa,:giire. ran fifteen cents ?"
' "What ?'?
"0, I want fifteen, •eents. • Do please
give it to fife:." • ° ' • •
• "What the world do .you 'want
with "it? Are they .ehanging, , sehool
books again ?"
"No; I want to buy a hoop. Ellen
Sinith has got one, and so has Mary
Ruck and Sarah Allen. Mr. Grant has
got some really' pretty ones to sell.
Ca t n't I hare one?'
`,`NOnseUse?, if you want a hoop, go
and get - onepti,some - old barrel. I eab't
afford to be buying hoops for you

•!Please,
"No, I tell you."
Thebright blue eyes were filled with
tears, and the child's sobbing broke
upon his ear. Albert Landman hurried
from tpiziTionsewith „ some - very.
jtppa
tient words upon his lips.
This was in the •morning, At noon,
wheahe came home to his dinner, there,
was a.cloud per ,the household. His
wife was sober,
'a
wife little Lizzie,
usually l sogay and blithesome was, sad
and silent. ",
But these things could net last longg
in that houSehold, for the husband and
wife really loved each other -devotedly,
and were at heart kind and forbearing.
When,Alberteaineta 'l' ate'

might hayc fancied that he,had done
nothing wrong, and that the Cloud had
been nothing but the exhalation of a
domestic ferment for which no one was
particularly responsible, though he,
might "have banished the conviction`'
that women's fashions were a nuisance
and a humbug, as well -as a,frightfal
draft - Upon husbands' pockets.
After tea Albert did a few; chores
around the house, and then -he •lighted
a segar and walked out. He had gone
but a short'distanee when be met • Liz
zie:' In her right hand - she dragged an
old, hoop, which
. she had taken from 'a
dilapidated flour barrel, while with her
left she was rubbing, her red, swollen
eyes: Slie, was in deep grief, and was
sobbing,. painfully. -He stopped his
child, and asked what was the matter.
She- answered, as-well as her sobs
would-let , her, that the other girls had
haugheddif her, and - made run of her old
oop. They had nice, pretty hoops,
while hers was ugly-and homely:
-"Never mind,"' said Alberti -patting
the little one upon the' head '(tier the
child's grief touched hith) ;'"perhaps

',- Sobbing again,' the: child moved on
towards home, dragging •the old hoop
after her. ,
At,one of the stored Albert Landman
met some of his friends. •

i i ig •
'Hallo; Alberti., What's up.
. "Nothing in particular.". .
"Whatdo you `say to :a game Of . bil
liards, Albert?" •.. i. ;1 , , „., .
"Good ! Pin in for that."
_, And away went Albert to.the billiard
hall, where he had a glorious time with
his friends.' He liked. 'billiarde: It'was
a; healthy, pretty game, and the keeper'
of the hall allowed no roughsseuffs upon
his' premises. -,..
They had played four gaines: Albert
had Won two, and his opponent had
won two.
"That's two and two," cried Toni,
Piper. "What do you say to playing
them tiff, Albert?"
"AII right; go in," said Albert, full
of animation.
So they played the fifth game, and he
who lost was to pay for the five games.
It was an exciting contest. Both made
capital runs, 'but in the end Albert
was beaten y three points;. and with
a light laugh he went up to settle the
bill. Five games—twenty cents a game:
just/ one dollar.' Not 'Mich for such
sport; and he paid out the money with
grace, and never once seeming to feel
that he could not afford it.
"Have;a segar ?" said Toni.
,y es is 4"
' I
They lighted their segars, and then
sauntered down the hail to watch othei
way.
Albert soon found himself seated over '
"against a table' at which some of his
•
friends were playing, and close by stood
two gentleinen, strangers to him, one of
whom wa?i explaining to the other' the
myeterieS of the game. •
/'lt is a healthy pastime," said he.who
had peen making the explanation ; "and
certainly it is one which can have' no
evil tendency."
Albert heard the remarks very plain
ly, and he had a curiosity to hear-what
the other,' who , seemed unacqu inted
with billiards, would say. •
4 `l cannot, of courK assert tha any
game which calls forsk and judginent,
and Which is' free frdin be attendant
curse of gaming, is -of itself tin evil,"
reraarkedthesecond gentleman. "Such.
things are only evils, fax as they excite
and stimulate men, b Ton d the bounds of
healthfal recreation.'
"That result can hardly follow NUCII a
game," said the first speaker.
_ But the other shook his head.
."You are wrong there. The result
can, follow in two ways. First—lt can
lend men away from thehrbusiness; and,
second it can lead men to spend money
whohave not. that money to spend.
You will understand me. I would" not
cry down the game of billiards, for if 1
understood it I,shoidd certainly try you
a game now ;' but whenever 1 visit a
place of this kind I am led to reflect
'upon a most strange and prontinent
•'weakness of humanity as developed in
our sex. For instance, observe that
young man who is just settling his• bill
at the desk. Ile looks like a mechanic,
and,' should say, for his manner, and
from the fact that he feels it'his duty to
go home at this hour, that he has a wife
and children. I see by his face that he
is kind-hearted and generous, and I
should judge that he means to o about
as near, right as he can. He has been
beaten; and he pays one dollar and forty
cents =for the recreation of some two
hour - 6 1 duration. If you observe, you
.wi'll eee that , he pays it freely, and
,pciekets the loose with a smile.. Happy

10 that young man's home! Suppose
his wife had come to him this morning,
and asked him for a dollar to spend for
some trifling thing-I-some household
ornament, or some bit of jewelry to
adorn her' person—and suppose his
little child had put in a plea for forty
cents to buy a paper and picture books
: with, what do you think he would have
answered? Of fifty men just like him,
would not forty and live have declared
that they had not money to spare for
any such purpose? And, moreover,
they would have ! said so feeling-ghat
4.. ',were telling the truth. Ain. I not
right 9 "
"U 'on my soul," responded the man
'who t nderstood billiards, "you !speak
a t point. I know that young man
N o has just paid his 'bill, . and you
have not misjudged him in a single
particular. And, what is more, I hap
pen to have a fact at hand to illustrate
your charge. We have a club for. an
excellent literary paper in our village,
and last year that man was ono of our
subscribers. -This year he felt obliged
- to_discontinue 'it. His wife was very
anxious-totalto it, for it had become a
genial eomprinion_in leisure moments; .
but ho could not afford it. The club
rate was one dollar and fifty-colts a
year.'', , • ----------
„
,• . "Aye, and so it goes,” said the other
gentleman. "Well, that man's wife
may be wishing at ' this very moment
that she had her paper to read, while
he is paying almost its full price for a
year—for what? And yet how smil
ingly he does it. All ! those poor, sym
,pathizing wives ! 'How many clouds
often darken' upon 'them from the brows
of their husban s when they ask for
il c,
trifling sums of m ney„and how grudg
ingly the mite- s handed over when it
is given ! What perfect floods of joy
might that dollar and forty cents have
poured upon the children of the unsuc
cessful billiard player. Ah I it is well
for such wives and children that they
do • •not know where' the money ,all
goes:"
They had „finished at .the nearest
table. 'The tw ; O • gentlemen moved on,
and ~Mberti•litintlman arose froth his •
seat f . .ftl left the hall. Never before'
had he:suelt thoughts as now posSessed
hint.t.,Whadliever dwelt, upon the same
grouping . ideas.. That very inoruing
his own' true, faithful, loving wife had
been sad and lieart , sick because he had
hairshlY',and unkindly met •her request
for a small 'sum ofd money. And his
sweet Lizzie had crept away to her home
almost broken-hearted for the want of
a simple 'toy, such as her mates pos
sessed. And yet the sum of both their
wants amounted to not as much as he'
had paid away that evening for,billiard
playingi 1
Albeft Landman wanted to be an
honest , husband and • father, and be
lesson was not lost upon him. On his
way home he stopped at Mr. Grant's
and purchased the - b_‘st . and prettiest
hoop to be found, w th driving stick
painted red, white and blue, and in the
morning, when he beheld his child'sdelight, and had received her grateful,
happy kiss, the Iruestion came to his
mind : Which wt S the best and hap
piest result, this 'r the five
_games of
billiards" The hoop had cost thirty
Cents. He could play two Willies, of
billiards less, aild be the absolute gain:
er of ten cents by the pleasant operation.
A few mornings after this, as' Albert
arose from the breakfast table, he de
tected.an uneasy, wistful look upon bib
Wifecs face. - ' •
"Kate, what, is it?"
• "Albert, could you spare inc half al
dollar this morning?" . •
"Certainly, my love.. Anything a
yeas en to make you happy."
And out came the wallet, and the
'money was handed over with a warm,
genial Smile. .
Whatl Tears at that! Was it possible
that she had-been so little used to ,such
scenes on his part that so simple an act
of loving 'kindness thus affected her?
How, many games of billiards - would
~be required to give Stich-satisfaction as
Albert Landman 'earned with him that
/morning to the.shop ?

hed met to rejoice over the result uv the
Kentucky eleekshun and the removal
uv Stanton, and we wuz rejoisin. We
hed bin a rejoisin - for several hours,
when the Deekin, blessins on his frosty

Deekon his change, the old man observ

"Certin 'tis, Deekin," sed George W.,
" eertin, but what's the odds? ! Ez

Bascom' smiled sweetly onto him.
I don't know when I felt so happy.
Kentucky lied spoken. We lied elected

DemoCrats every one uv em. Sum uv
em hed bin accoosed uv leanin towards
the Fedrel side, but they lied by afflda
vits'proved themselves troo to the Dem

by a envious cuss, uv havin furnisht
the Federal forces'with bosses, but he
indignantly repelled the charge. His
eiiendes • brot forret' the documents
showin that he bed furnisht the Fedral
forceS with bosses, and I trembled far

accursed greenbacks, but jvherefore?
Wuz it to add to the resourses of the
gorrilw Linkin, or' the reverse? Let
the filets answer. When wuz thehosses'
delivered ? Ha! ha! Did . the Fedral
offiser glt 'ein? He did. Did he keep
'em ? Allies ! That nite John Morgan,
who Heeled his devoshen to the Confed
eracy with his blood, scooped 'em, and
thein bosses with the Fedrals paid for
did servis in the Confedrit army. He
wood ask his maligners. whether it was
sinful,for a troo Confedrit to take mon

not fail to convince, and the candidate
wuz uv course, electid: .The shafts uv
his enemies fell pintless.
Therefore I felt happy. The waves
uv- Ablishnism rolled over all the other
States, but against Kentucky they
struck harmless. Kentucky is a brite
oasis in the desert. Built onto Ham'.
and Hager, bleevin in the sociberiority
ifY the whiterace bold In 11l their hands
the privilege uv sayin who shoed not I

silence, contemplatin our happiness.
At last Deekin Pogratn spoke. He
sighed ez he spoke. , He lied heard uv
Tennessee. He bed seen the lection
returns, and he wuz, ez much afflicted
ez we wuz rejoist. " Wherefore," sed
he, " shoed we feel good; while our 1
brethren in Tennessee are wailin over'
tlier woes. The nigger with us is in
his normal Speer. I hey twelve aSweat

yield to the power uv the stronger race,
and the females bow meekly to ther
destiny. "Tomony oldest sqn, is - hap

sons is ez contentid ez they kin be. But
it is not so in. Tennessee. There they
are not normal. There white men bow
beneath a power they can't resist. There
the nigger hez a vote, and' the white
man, who follered his State, is disfran
chised. My God ! how kin a man be
happy under sich circumstances? How
kin a Dimokrat rejoice when jist across
the line he sees liberty weepin, pros

and Johnson bed removed
Stanton---
'' And Tennessee bed elected Brown
low, and Johnson hez appinted Grant,"
whispered Joe Bigler.
This bit us. This griped us. This is
wuss nora cathartic to us. Ef Kentucky
is WI, Tennessee is aquafortis. Ef Stan
ton is soothin, Grant is pizen. . Where
in are we better with one than with
the other ?—is a question wich we askt
ourselves oven and over agin.
But we felt good after all. The Dein

THE CRISIS.
We are in the midst of a crisis, oti the
event of which depend the future peace
and prosperity of the nation. Harden
ed by the fierce vicissitudes of the last
six years, we look on, apathetically
while the republican institutions in
which we glory are endangered, and
we watch with languid curloMy a On
dition of affairs which, ten years since,
would have convulsed the whole eotin-
try 'with the wildest agitation. Tiw
co-ordinate branches of our , Govern
ment are at variance. • By a fatal erred,
the National Legislature has left the
field, for the time; in the power of the
Executive, and a ifaithless President is
making the moat, of the opportunity,
The laws of the land are left unexecu
ted, or are boldly set aside at the des
potic will of a single man, who, blind
ed by ambition, and surrounded by
such satellites as Binckley, Jeremiah
Black, and Montgomery Blair, seeks to
convert representative government into
a dictatorship, and who scarcely veils
his purpose to rule or ruin. Eager to
reap the 'full benefit of his apostasy, the
Democratic party is straining every
nerve to get once more into power, that
it may renew its old alliance with
Southern rebels, and recqnstruct the
Union as nearly after the old pattern as
i$ possible. .All the burdens left us by
the war are skillfully , taken advantage
of to persuade the lunthinking that
Democratic rule aloe can restore the
blessings o; light taxes, low prices, and
specie currency. Every local question
is turned U. account; where passion or
prejudice con-lie worked upon. ' Every
art, whiel 'the furious lust of power and
of the spols of office can suggest, is
eagerly pit in practice to gain tcs on
specious pretexts. The resultr'We see in
Maine and California.
What, then, are we doing in this
perilous conjuncture? Exhausted by
the labors and the sacrifices of Ithe list
six years, serenely confident, in the
the justice of our cause and the triumph
of our arms, we supinely wait to FIT
power pass into the hands of the ene
mies of our great cause, that' they nul
lify all the l•csults of our triumph. Pet
ty local 'questions, of infinitesimal im
portance, tre sufficient to divert uS,
from considering the overwhelming is
sues' at stake. We pause to think
whether an, individual is all that we
would have him be, before, we can bring
ourselves to vote for him, when that
individual is as nothing himself, Land
we should only look upon him, wieth
er worthy or unworthy;as personifying
for the moment, the great principles
for which we have willingly sacrificed
half a million of lives and countless
millions of money. I in these supreme
crises of a nations fate, individuals are
nothing but the J iestruments with
which we work; and a bad instrnment,
used to a good end, may be a thousand
times preferable to a good instrument
used to a had'end. Let not . apathy or
passing disgust paralyze us i►► the * boor
of our triumph, nail the fruits of suc
cess turn to asl►es'on our lips: r
For let us calmly consider what it i:
that lies before us in the immediate fu-
,
ture. We have 'a Congress which has
been gallantly struggling fbr a double
purpose—to secure the results of the war
in a durable peace and permanent uni
fication of the /country, and, at. the
same time' to' preserve the legislative
power °Ole people through their chos
en representatives. On the other hand
we haVe a President whose native sub
serviency to the old oligarchic and rebel
element of the South has led him to
quarrel with the party Nk'fileh placed
him in power; whose 1,441ent 'passions
and narrow mind have made him the
tool of adroit and reckless schemers ;
who gathers around him, byl natural
i t
affinity, the worst elem '36c - from-every
section ; and whose to uper..Tingtanted
by the opposition of i;ing .. ress to his
will, is evidently prepa ed_ to commit
any action' which would g4 - e him a
a temporary advantage over 14is antag
onists, at the cost of plutgging the
whole country into confusion,
These differetwes bet Ween the Exec;
naive and the Legislature, involving
not only the policy of the country, but
lie fundamental structure of its gov
ermiit. are 'mildly approaching a cri
sis. Twelve iontlis since Mr. John-
son contented himself with stigmatiz
ing Congress as a body " hanging; upon
the, verge of the government." Six
months ago, when vetoed bills were
pa...sed by the constitutional.two-thirds
he pledged himself to carry them into

tent with nullifying the laws by gndi
rection and by sophistically arguing
away their plain intent and purpose,
but he boldly sets Theni-at naught, and
exercises powers which have been spe
withheld from him. Congress
has earnestly sought to - ,' avoid the is
sue which he is forcing upon us, but
no ingenuity can longer delay it. Mr.
Johnson anti his Democratic and re,
bet-allies sec this and are prepared for
it. , Already his friends are circulating
mysterious whispers of a coin-d'etat ;
his leading organ of the press presumes
to doubt whether the Fortieth Congress
I
will e , er reassemble ; the air is thick
with threatening- rumors; the gold
mark t, that sensitive barometer, pre
sages the coming Storm; stagnation in
trade shows how deeply men's minds
are moved by the fearful eventualities
of the next three months. What is
needed to realize - the worst of - these
forebodings? Only DornoCratic success
in the Tall elections!
' If the ever-loyal city of Philadelphia,
the rock against which the tempests
of rebellious Democracy have spent
their force in vain, 4hould prove recre
ant to her well-earned glory—if the
great State of Pennsylvania4hould belie.
her splendid record—what fearful en
couragement would it not give to the
miserable band., who are. plotting and
scheming for the overthrow of our in
stitutions? Pennsylvania is again the
battle-ground or tile union, and tat at
ettyshurg were the lines more cl o ,viy
drawn or the issues more distinctly bal
anced. As Meade and Lee then led the
opposing armies, so nOw are
,Williams
and Sharswood, the leadoro Of their
respective parties. I n 'such a contust,
for ends so momentons, personal )'re
fere-flees are as ,nought.L The
_man dis
appears in the cause, and the country
claims the devotion of every citizen at
the ballot-box; as sho once claimed his
services in the field.
Should we, through fatal apathy and
shortsightedness, permit the enemy, to
carry Pennsylvania, what hopes can we
have of New York and New Jersey.?
Our example would be contagious, anti
we may well look forward with tunic
fected dread at the results if the great
Middle States should appear to rally to
the support of Johnsonism. Who call

the moral force of 'Congress would be
gone. Doubt and indecision would
take the place of firmness and well-con

spurn anew the idea of submission.
Every hostile element would unite for
co-operation. Anticipated triumph
would draw around them the venal, the
unprincipled, and the thoughtless, and
with aggregated strength they )ould
coutrol the - position. Forcing their

It matters little to us - as citizens

Treasurer. But, by the sport of cir
eunikances, questions of_the highest
significance that can affect theexistence
of at great people underlie these local
and trivial issues. When Pennsylva

out"( he nation ; and when she speaks
in October, it will ilot he merely to de
