Richard Brown ,had lived a bachelor for fort years; and declared his, inten tion of continuing in the state of single -blessedness for the remainder of Rim life —greatly to the' satisfaction of his )_%rela tives, the Hinkles, with whom he re sided, for be it kn -ti Uncle Richard was worth a coot h If million, and tire Hinkles were his only living relations, and unless, as Mrs. Hinkle said, sorM;r. "nasty charity" came in for his property, who hhould he leave it to hut to his own cousins or their children? Hopeful as poor human nature is of longevity, Mr. a u 1 Mrs. Hi n kle_scarcely expected to survive their totrabi q Ni'llo was their jUniiir by ten years, but Ade laide, and Hose, rind ( liarles, and r Wil limn, might in all probability be his , .heirs, and Lo this i i , nd the parents la bored. Uncle whamd hail the best room in the hou e, the best chair, the (most particular consideration. LE i s ;wishes were di:ferred to and his advice taken On eVery occasion, and he actually canto to be loved ; cur, With all his qui et old-fashioned ways, and his habit of `sitting as utterly silent as though he libbd Levu deaf and pump, he was a loveable wan. Matters progressed very smoothly'until it was habit and not hy pocrisy which made Cousin Richard actually master of 1.114 house. He NV:IS very obliging—wonderfully so in• nio-zt respeck. He would attend to any Lbing for anyhody—mater rib bons wiled nobody else could—escort the girls to phtees Of amusement—go dutifully to church with their mamma —attend to marketing and the posting of letters, and tlie gas-Meter, and the turning oft' of the water in frosty weath er. Ile was ,alwltys ready to search the house with a poker at the dead (if night, when any one "heard a noise." He went to the dentist with people Om wanted their teeth _drawn, and always seemed to have sugar-plums in his pocket. But one thing Cousin Rich ard would pot do, and that; was to ex hibit the least sign , of politeness to lady i 0 rS. He never saw any one home. • He never even silent the evening in their coMpany. He invariably shut himself Op in his room and had his tea there when one of i hose individuals was re ported to lie in the house, and, when traveling; had ben known in a train to shut his eyesl tight when a young lady entered, :u •d remain with- them closed until she 'eft the carriage: As a general thing, in iced, he always chose a carriage where he needed not be in truded upon. . . . • "It was just as well after all," said Mrs... Hinkle, but it was a peculiarity not quite as agreeable to Mr. H. when* he found the pleasant task of 'seeing Miss .Smith or Miss Jones home'' im posed upon himself. He argued that well duties were Cousin Dick's, though he never Old him so. It would not have been pleasant to provoke him, and if anything could have offered Bach elor Brown mortally,- it would have been to insist upon his offering any gallant attentioiyAto the softer sex. However, a d.}Ty came at last which set the household in commotion. • MISS' Amanda Dove had been invited to spend a week with the Hinkles, and Miss Dove being a stranger, was to wait at the station until some one - came for her in a carriage. The Hinkles resided some miles out of the town, and had not occupied their residence for ninny months, so that peo plc were not always properly directed by the neighbors: • It-was decided that Mr. Hinkleshould escort, Miss Dove, but'before the day of her arrival dawned business had called that gentleman to Sheffield. Moreover, Mrs. Hinkle had, the influenza, and the two boys were at boarding-school. No one was to be found to drive, and nei ther Rose n9rAdelaid could handle the reins. Miss Dove WILS to come at nine, and what would she think of .them it' no one came for her? • "Indeed," said Mrs. Hinkle, "it would be shocking treatment for the dear girl. I ,must ask your Cousin Richard." "You never dare, tna," said Miss Rose, aghast. "In such a case, you—" said Mrs Fin kle. "He'll not do it," said Adelaide. "Of course not," said Rose. Alr's. Hinkle shook her head. "I- fear he will not," she said, and, as suming an expression which would hire one credit to Joan of Arc, moun ted the Stitirs to Cousin Richard's study. •"Are you busy, Richard she asked as she entered. "Not at al I—sitdown," said Bac:helm Brown. "You see how.ill I am," said Mrs. Hinkle; "I can hardly hold up my head, ►ouch less drive, and Mr. Hinkle is away, and the boys too, and no one can handle the reins, and—') i'Well," said Bachelor Brown. "And there is poor i‘liss Dove at the .station with 1u 1.1.1111 C lsr - this time," said Mrs. Hinkle, with a gasp. "Ali!" .sill Bachelor Brown, "what a pity !" Mrs. Hinkle felt'she had not begun yet , Bachelor Brown could not under stand What she wanted. "Itls a favor—a great favor to ask, I know," she said, "but couldn't you just for once do it?" cititd *Putty. IaIIPPER AT THE MILL ii ____. listtilancons. ,"Do what, Maria?" asked Bachelor Brown. ' "Go for her," said Mrs. Hinkle "For Miss Dove?" "Oh dear no," said Cousin Richard. "But—„began Mrs. Hinkle. - "Maria;" sai o d the old -bachelor; "young ladles, ) my little cousins ex cepted, are my abomination. An af fected, conceited, absurd set ofcreaturea. I never had anything to do with. 'em, and I never will, No doubt she• is capable of finding her way here. They all appear to be: 1 shan't go for her. Mrs. Hinkle retreated. "What will she think of us?" she said, sobbing. "Don't cry," said Bachelor Brown, "I'll see if any of the hands over at Oats' plabe can drive over for her." And out he went ; but all the hands on Oats' Place were busy with the hay, which stood in danger from a coming shower. Rjchard retiirned without even the least success. t. "A shower, too," said Rose. "Poole, dear Amanda; try what I can do with my epusin." And in the study she spent an hour, teasing wprrying without effect. "Let her 'get lost," said Bachelor Brown. '"No doubt she'd like it. And as for her trunk, why can't girls •travel with a portmanteau, as we do's" And Rose departed, - pouting. She found Adelaide in an extremely merry mood. "Don't laugh," she said, "think of poor Amanda." • "I am thinking Miler," said Adelaide, "and Cousin Dick shall go. I'll tell a 1110." "For shame," said Rose. "One ought to make some sacrifice for a friend," said Adelaide. "1 1 11 tell him she's a child. He's always good to little children.q, • "It will n'everjdo," said Mrs. Hinkle, ' s he'll never forgive you." But Adelaide.ran up to her cousin's study, and burst in with an exceedingly theatrical laugh s . "What a mistake !" she said, "and so stupidnf them iiil. You think Aman da is a grown lady, don't you !" ' "Isni.t she?" asked the bachelor JEAN INGELOIy "As if it child of nine years old could be!" said Adelaide. "Poor, dear little thing I"' "Poor little thing indeed," said the old bachelor, hurrying on his coat and hat; "Bless me, why didn't you men tion it. Poor little soul!" And in a few minutes the light wag onette wits drivejl down the road, and the Hinklesstood looking after it. I . "I'm half!frightened," said Rose. "So ant I," said Adelaide." Rut done, and eannot be helped now. I'll inatiagu to coax hith to forgive me,-and it Wouldli't do to leave a friend in such a position, you know, and I didn't say she was a‘child." Meanwhile Bachelor Brown drove to the station. 4..1t was a long drive over a bad road, but he kept mi l his way very. cheerfully. He was extremely fund of tittle children. `NVlten on reaching the station, hesaw no sign or her presence, he grew alarm ed. J f she had been lest through his neglect., he couhr never forgive himself. He ran his fingers through his curly hair, and peeped into the ladies' wait ing room. Only a very fine, full grown young woman sat there, and he retreat ed. The woman who waited- in the apartment come out of her nook with a courtesy as she saw him and he add ress ed her: "nave you seen a little girl waiting fek, e some one?" "No, sir," said the woman. "Mete were two came down, but they are gone. l .l • "Oh, dear ! oh, dear!" said BaChelor Brown; "I .hope there's no mistake. It's a little Miss Dove, and if the dear little soul has gone astray I'm entirely to blame. Please make inquiries— there's a good woman!" As he uttered these words the full growncii yoUng lady in the wait" g-room was seen to blush violently an to rise. "I'm Amanda Dove," she sal , "and I expected some one from Mr. Hi kle's." Bachelor Brown ' stood agh tst. He had spoken of this lady as a "d ar little thing" his face turned scarlet. "I—Lbeg,your pardon, ma'am;" he began. "1 expected to find a little—l wouldn't have used . such expressions for the world—l—" "I comprehend," said the young lac , ; "don't mind•in the least. I—" 'ls this your trtink, ina'ain ?" said aehelor Brown, irta hurry. "Yes, sir," said the lady, looking wn. . .And in a few moments the two were driving towards the Hinkle's country seat. Never had Bachelor Brown found himself so close to any young lady, save - his cousins, before. Tie was woful lt confused, but somehow he liked It,. How:pretty she was, he thought. 1-Tow pink and white; how golden her hair Was. !How the blue ribbons of her bon= net set it WE Then he began'tow'onder what she thought of him. Wondering thus, he forgot the road, and suddenly' found that lie had lost himself. To add to thediletunia the storm, which had been threatening for hours, burst at the very moment when Bachelor Brown found it impossible to tell whether the left road or the right led homeward ; and the horse was afraid of lightning, and grew restive. Miss Amanda Dove Nvi4 afraid of lightning also. -She gave a little scream, anti clung to Bachelor BroWn's coat sleeve. Bachelorßrow n looking down at her. It was such a soft, plump hand. . Fief' eyes were so round and blue in her ter ror that he forgot that she was a you ,g lady. "I'll take care of you," he said; flash of lightning, a roar of thunder, ni e attempt on „part of the horse to run away, inter opted him. Mip Doe turned pale. Bachelor Brown looli.ed terriflecit He cast 4 glance about him. Neathe road was a parsonage, ,connected with its church by, a garden "I tell yoti what we'll do," he said.— "We'll ask for shelter until the storm is over. A clergyman ought to be Christian enough to take us in." 4 7-4* And, driving to the gate, he assisted Miss - Dove to alight. As ho did so two hired men rushed out turd began to at tend to the horse and vehicle, and an old - lady and gentleman appeared upon the steps: "So glad you're early enough to es cape the worst olvthe storm," said the gentleman. "Do come in," said the old lady. "We were expecting ypu—for on such an occasion people arways keep their appoifitrhents, rain or St rishine, I be lieve." 1 "What on earth do s 'she mean ?" said Bachelor Brown. 'qlut it's very kind of them." And so, when the old lady hurried Miss Dove away to ilry her things, he sat with the old clergy man in the parlor. , .

AN ABSENT-AiTNDED an amusing adventure r befell Judge Van Buren on Saturday evening, Which created no small amount of merriment among his friends. The , Judge, it ap pettrs, had ordered a new pair of boots from a shoemaker on State street, and ho went over on Saturday to put them On. The shoemaker put up the old boots .in a brown paper parcel, and honor walked away with the' parcel in his hand; the new boots on his feet. -- Coming to a huckster stand he spied a pair'of line fat chickens, which he thought would make an excellent Sun day dinner. He bought them, and the store-keeper put them up in a brown paper parcel. The Judge, rather heavy laden, proceeded homeward with the old boots In one hand tind the chicken, in the other. "After tpl," thought hp, "the old boots are of no use to me any how. I may as well,give them td some poor man and relieve myself. It will be doing a charity.to relieve' parties."-- At the corner of the street he encoun tered a colored man. "Here friend," said the Judgd, hand ing, him a brown paper parcel, "there's a present for you, and I hope they'll fit." "Thank yoti, sir," said the astonished shade, "Urn sure they will." And he went on his way rejoicing. The Judge also went on his way, glad ,at heart. He met some friends at the ' door of Mr. Jordan, the undertaker, ou Clark street. "Good evening, Mr. Jotdan," Said his llonor_in a cheery tone, "business brisk ?", • Mr. J4dan looked grave. "I have just bought a pair of spleM did chickens," said the Judge, " for Sunday dinner. Just look at them."-- And he proceeded to open the parcel, for i usneetiou. "Chickens?" exclaimed Mr. Jordan, "why they , look mighty like a pair of very old boots. I shouldn't like to have them chickens in my stomach." The Judge took ofr his hat, and scratched his head. "why hang me if I hava't given that darkic the chick ens after all. Well, I'm a pair of hoots ahead, and a pair of chickens short." —Chicago Tribune. NEED OF FRESH AlR.—Aunt Chloe, in "Uncle Toin's Cabin," used to say, "It's an ill wind that blows nowhar." Elbe might bavesaid,• "It's ill wlinr no Wind blows." A family become ill, and all remedies seemed to fail of their usual results, when accidentally a window-glass of the family room was broken in cold weather. It was not repaired, and fort I)- with them was a marked improvement in the health of the inmates. The physician at one traced the connectieM, discontinued hi . medicines and ordered that the windbtk pane should not be re placed. A. French lad!, became ill. The most eminent physicians,of her time were called in, but failed to restore her. At lei gth Duproyten, the Napoleon of p 'sic, was consulted.

Last year while his elegant mansion was builjling n young carpenter who had just- nished his trade, and whose sole property eon •-nisted in a pair of large hands, a stout, good heart, and habits of industry and so erness, mum tb work upon the preui kt. Very naturally the younglk»ight of the broad axe fell in love with the young lady ; and strange: to say the young lad was equally pleased with him. She gpent considerable time ev ery day in watching the progress of the work, particularly. that performed by the mechanic, and he found his greatest 'refreshment, incentive and joy in work ing under the watch of her loving eye'. The secret,. however, soon became aft open one, and finally was broken to the young lady's father. He heard the sad ' news without concern, but in a few minutes set off. for the village where hc I made diligent inquiry respecting the I young carpenter, who, he learned, war the only son and support of a poor wid• I ow, but was ati intelligent, capable. promising young matt*. The father re turned home, and calling his dti v tight.ei to his room asked her how the matte; stood between her and the young . car penter. It was a critical moment tc her, and fora moment her fears tri umphed over all other feelings, OA sla( tburst into tears. The tears were follow. d by a confession of an attachmen. which had grown stronger 'every day, even with the fear that It vlas doomed to cruel disappointment ; for the object of it was nothing but a poor mechanic. " But I love him with all my might and would give my life for him," said the honest girl. " Does he reciprocate,• your affect ions ?" asked the rather. "That he doeS," replied the dangh ter ; "but he knows that you would never consent 0 his addresses to 'me, and has been very reserved about it.— He talks about going away hdcause he cannot live here .without seeing me, and thinks you would be unwilling to have him visit the house. The father sent for the young carpen ter, who came to 'the reom with Ali( greatest trepidation. He suspecial what wasin the wind, and, anticipat ing an immediate dismissal, his heart was in his throat when the father said : " Young man, how is it that you have dated to carry ou a flirtation with my daughter without my consent?" "That is- 011ie, sir, utterly false, sir," the young mat replied ; "your (laugh ter came to the house where we were at work, and I saw her and loved her. I could not keep my eyes from looking at her. She returned my look and inter est, aci asked me questions. Almost every day she had beeno the house, and hcr coining makes i soma heaven touse, sir. But I knew was only a i l t poor mechanic, with a mother on my -ilands, and that you would not consent to illy offering her any particular , attOn dons. Sol have kept away, I ant going oil', Mr I cannot live without seeing her, and I would not do anything dishonor aide or, that her father would disap .c, prove.' 7 . . The young man turned his face to": wiird, the window to hide a few estray, tears which came into his eyes. l The tat her looked steadily into his secretary, ia , if iL contained something; of unusual i n ivrest. AfteNt not Unwelcome silence hem orned to the young man and said : - volt have acted honorably in ibis mailer. You Shall see my daughter all you please. I hear that you are a wor illy, iinluStrions young man, and I pre fer -ileh a one'for a son to ally dissolute -nw:. lam soiry that your - education hay hoen so miich neglected. But it is not too late to remedy that matter. l will pay your Wages regularly to your mother, and send you to school for a year or two. After you get a good foundation laid'l will take youinto bus ., mess ; and if you bear • yourself in n worthy manner, one of these days my daughter shall be your wife: You may q\lit work at once." • Our readers can imagine rthe Beene 4(1 the joy that followed this speech of a ;i,•ise and kind-father, far better than we can describe them. The young loan has just finished a year's course at school, where he has made wonderful progri':::3. The father seems to be as proud id him as lie well qan be ; and lie lois found that life in Wis . new and elegant mansion on the banks of the Hudson, with an accomplished daugh ter who cannot sufficiently express . her -gratitude for his kindness, and the oc casional visits of a noble-minded young man who is working his way up in the world, is only a sweet foretaste of ely shun. H only rich fathers would fol- I low this nample, there would, be ' few elopements and far less misery than al present, and a great many happy hearts ' and happier homes.' _ . AA. VISIT TO Tli E MUMMY:S.—An Atuetican, now traveling hi Egypt, ,had the curiosity to enter a cave used a:A a sepulchre for mummies. "Imagine," says he, "a vaulted chambe twenty : the feet high, cut in the hearof a huge granite rock. In this apartua nt, dimly lighted 'by bur two flickering apers fill ed almost. to the roof, was a counties., , piled mass of unconfined nitmmies.— 1 Tlik?re they lay in all shapes and pos -1 tures.

JOB AND CARD TYPE AND FAST PRESSES, J:)• - •Oericc—Roy'r.1,1ocli : Seconcli'loqr Fra Diavolo Tire well known opera of Fra biavolo Is based on tragical events which occur red in France nearly one hundred and seventy years ago. These facts are thus condensed from the Court records by a Paris paper : At the beginning of the last century - there was to be seen in the town of Lille a Very quiet house. It, was a large building but it contained only a small family—a, husband and wife and one servant girl. , The Curiosities Judicial.- les add that the married couple weread vaneed in years, and they lived quietly on their income, and saw very few visi tors, and admitted no one to the house except the people who furnished them witth provisions or otherwise ministered to their wants. One night this couple, man and wife, were rohhed, and murdered in their bed., The servant girl had heard nothing of all this, and knew nist what was go ing on. The night, was hot, the air dense, and oppre:-sively sultry, so much so that she had taken refuge in her room and sat, for the sake of coolness,. dives ted , herself of her garments before a large mirror. While there, catching a sight, of herself she suddenly cried, "how hateful one looks when naked'." Having said this she retied and slept till morning, ant! rose as usual, without suspecting what had happened. She prepared breakfast as usual for her master and Mistress, brit they did not come down. She was amazed and waited for a lOng time. They did not appear. Tired of waiting she sought their room. A horrible sight met her eyes. Blood was smeared everywhere; and oat the bed lay the poor old couple, ruelly, horribly, vilely i.utchered—mangled as only a beast or fiend could 11n4 in his heart to noulitate victims after murder ing them. • The girl raised an alarm and the mul titude eano rushing in. Of course jus tice cam rushing after in t . form of .the hulk., with a judicial in stigation. Elie crit iinal was sought or, and as none other could hti Mum" suspicion tell on the unfortunate Eerraut. In those days they had a horrible way of trying to get at the truth. , They call it "questionin p .,, ,, ." • The questionswere put with racksland thumb screws. The LiHots servant maid was intim otisl3' tortured, even to extreme agony. Yet, not withstanding her weakitess, and her sex, she endured the internal torture without confo:sity , anything.— This was the more reuntr•kable, as she Was entirely innocent, anti was in i•on equelive kept much longer under tor ment to make.her eon less. As there was no proof of la.r having done any thing, they finally let her go, as soon as site wits healed. Culortunately,, the torture had made her a wretelied's;crip ple. t-..Alte could only hobble alopg on tier brolsen Hulks, and her arms ;were witherol. And, being no longer ablel.o sew or wort:, she dragged her lielVes form through the streets and Legged. She begged through the 'streets feLille -for sixteen yt:trs. This is all historically true—nay morel than historically . ; for History often lies, while they facts are ,drawn from the dry and accurate re rordtt apt court. The worst part of her suffering was that inany people heliev (.!(l her guilty, and scorned lier ti!icord inr2,ly, . . , It appears lion the reeordi that'; dur ing thebe long yeals, while •she -Nt ent about tyith her withered arms and bent back, her whole frame front the tol lure, begging a copper' sou to buy4her bread, that she Will: always resigned, mild, and .exemplary in her conduct. One day after sixteen' years of misery, 311 e stopped to beg before the . door of a baker. She held out through her rues her naked and mutilated arm towards the baker who stood in his door sill. As she did so, he exclaimed, in a meeking tone, while observing her want of gar ments : " Well, _MarieAnne„ how hateful. one looks when naked—ha? '2 , Tow it is remembered that in all the : sixteen.years which bad passed, Marie Anne bad not forgotten there words which she had spoken. when hlonc on the night of the murder. It flashed upon her mind that the reali murderer might have heard them, and that he -toud•before her. In" brief, we learn shat the journey man baker, Nvben ar eested, confessed the truth: G lie had reg,ularlytupplied the"old couple, and knew the ways of the house. Ile was Liddell there on the night of the mur der, and heard the girl when she made the remark on - her nakedness. And Cis the criminal is often by the will of 'Providence his own accuser, so ,his Luaii, following one of thoF,e eceen tic and dangerous impulses which - men often experience, to say the nn dun •:erous things, had uttered to the' girl he words of the .fatal night. lie \sins •onvieted Of the crime for which Marie -knne had been tortured, and suffelled a lying tleath—and was broken alivo on - he whee in _Lille.
