'; . • ; • " There is u §torsi iising "in the air, in spite of the sunlight,' Russel said, still standing by the window, I should not enjoy being blockaded in by snow on my journey.' ' Probably not ; but you might as well expect it in this climate."' ' Wet, I shall take Alice back to England as eopn possible,' Russell said, with his hand on the door. Good bye, uncle, then, good bye.' Russel was soon speeding from the town, his eyes looking eagerly forward oN. , ee the vast stretches of snow'as if he would outstrip even the steam which -bore him.

He did not fear the storm while on he cars; he knew they would get tO their destination before the stortn ;eclutrlll(ilßakeeßil ad Vit)4 16 re-' lard them much. 'But he remembered the twenty miles he must go in a cutter after the last station, for Alice waited him at the residence,of a relative, be yond Montreal.

While. .siting , thus my mother heard. footsteps . approach and presently some one opened and , , passed through the yard door.: (This yard door face on .to the road ; It wits' then a , country, road; and the nearest house' \vita full' five hundred yards distant; and any one going to the front door would have to pass this yard door, the dining-I'6oin windowS, another window, and then turn round the corner of the housti through-a gate in the garden.) She was a good•cleastartled, more es pecially becausethis door, according to domestic regultitions, ought to have been locked. - She roused herself to listen with all her Might, and heard dlttinetlyall the more distinctly as the house was so quiet—the person who had opened the, yard door enter the hpuSe:hy the - hack door, traverse a pas sage, 'in the basement story, open the door at the foot of the back stairs, mount the back stairs, and enter the front hall.. But by this time she was completely reassured; for she had tee-' ognized ray father's footsteps. He put his umbrella into - the stand with a rat thug nelse, „took: Oft his, top-coat and' sheok,it, and —then came through the inner hall into the. dining-room. The hall doer and dining-room door were both ajar, so she easily heard this.

As ho did not come down again - , for more than an'. hour, my mother followed him to see what war.t.the-eadee of 'his- delay. 'l'o licr astonishMent, she found his room empty, and no sign of his having been there.

But IThile she sat there, still flurried and uneasy, she heardhgain the samefootsteps apprbaeh ing, the same opening of the yard door, the same entrance by - the back door, the alum traversing of the passage downctairs, and - mounting by the back - stairs into the hall, the same putting down Uf.ttre utobrella and, sbakibg of the cad, stud then my father came into the room, walked up, to the fire, and placed his elbow on the mantelpiece and foot pit the fender, just as he had done before. "'Why, where have you been ?'! exclaimed my mother, as soon as , she could speak, after the first gasp Ofamazement. "Been?" said he, turn ing round and noticing for the first time her- excitement aod distress, "I have been al,thie jail it,s .usual." "Oh! you know that's net What I mean ; where have you been Since you came in by the,back door, just as you have done just now, 'rather - more than 'half and hour since ?" "..I. don't understand you at all; I have come straight from the jail, and never been in the house, since I left_t t his mor4ing.",,"Ohl it's too bad; playing. jokes like this to frighten me, when you knoW I'm not well." (My mother was in- 'delicate health at the time.) And then,' in answer to his amazed questions, she poured out the story I have told you. • I believe the incident happened ex-' actly as I have narrated. I have heard ; my father tell the story repeatedly, and he was singularly truthful and accurate. My mother's account, too, tallied, pre cisely with'his. My sister cannot note, I think, distinguish iietWeen what she recollects and what she had so often' heard related. Butlbay father at the time questioned her as to what she had: heard, aner aceOtint was that "I saw mamma sup suddenlyand go into papa's dressing-room, and then she went into all the rooms up stairs iis if she was looking for something,. and then she Caine down and looked as if something was the matter; but she Wouldn't an swer ins when I asked. what it was." When my mother told her story, my father instantly recollected that as lie left the jail the thought occurred to him, when he saw 'how heavy the rain was, that if he found the yard door unlocked he - would go in that way-1, thing which lie very seldom did—to avoid going round the corner to the front door ; and the thought having once occurred, he. mentally rehearsed the circumstances of his entrance—doing Jo the- spirit precisely what he afterwards did in the body. The distance from the _jail to our tome at "East Cliff" was rather more than two miles, and as this corresponds with my mother's "rather more than half an hottr," the conclusion is obvious that while the, image of the, yard door, back , stairs,,&c:, was present in his brain, his imago was, sitnylianeously pfeseet in my .mother's brain.'

" Admiral Sir Thomas Williams, a straight-forwardanq 'excellent man,; founder of the' Royal Naval Female, School for the education ofnaval officers' daughters;, was in command of ,n _ship crossing the Atlantic ocean. , His course brought him in sight of the Island of, Ascension, at' th t time: uninhabited, and never visited by any ship except for the purpose 'f .ecillecting 'turtles, which abound on he coast. 'Theisland was barely — descr bed - - on 'the horizon; and - .was nett° be noticed at all; but as, Sir Themes - looked ;Alt .he .was - seized by an unaccountable 'desire to Steer to wards it. He felt how strange such a wish would appear to his crew, and tried to disregard it—but in vain. His desire became more and more urgent and distressing, and foreseeing that it =Eli would 'Boon'bornore difficult to gratify it ; he told his lieutenant :to prepare to 'put about ship and steer for Ascension. The offiCer , whom he spoke ventured respectfully to present that changing their course would greatly delay them— that just ( at that moment the men were going to ,their dinner—that, at least, sortie delay might' e allowed. But these arguments se mcd •to increase .Captain William's anxiety, and he gave the word of coalman , which is never resisted. He saw in' the Countenances of his officers an eXp ession of wonder and even an strong as is ever shown on an order torn the .captain ; but he was 'obeyed, ' int the Ship was steered toward the Uninteresting little island:, - All eyes ail& spy,glasses were now fixed upon and was pereeive - ti on the shore. "It is white—it is a flag—it must be asignal !" and-when they: - neared she shore. it.-was ascertained that sixteen men, wrecked on that coast many 'day6 before, and suffering the extremity of hunger, had set up a signal, though almost without hope of relief. The shipwrecked men were taken on board, and the voyage completed. Sir Thomas related this anecdote in the simplest and most tranquil manner, in .

Some time ago there was discovered a mammoth cave near Salisbury Conn., hung with glittering stalactiteS, and rivaling in beauty the most gorgeous of earth's own handicraft. The copper implements, tile ghostly bones, the bronze ornaments, the petrified wood, were duly chronicled and described at the time of the discolfery. The country about this cave isstrikingly picturesque. Twin lakes, connected by but a narrow creek spread in summer their shining• pool faces to the blue sky, and mirror the overhanging fdyests, which send out huge branches Covered with ver dure, and stand g ant-like sentinels over this land of be• uty., In an East ern exchaiwe is an a count of the bring ing to light ofa twit cave, to rival the twin lakes, which W 11 be of 'still more absorbing, novelty. Long before the 11 st-mentioned cave had, been discovered the firtnily of Mr. Miles, a wealthy re ident, whose farm contained th 2 won erful" Cave, were much puzzled to ace unt for the tracks which frequently ap eared, both in the frosty grass of the meadows and near, the house, on the freshly-scraped walks. These prints were evidently those of a daint,y female foot, and where they came from was a mystery which gave rise to the most perplexing questions .and suppOsitions. While. in summer these marks were frequently observed near the house,•in the winter,' wh,en the ice had mantled the lake With• its stern, chill counter pane, and the snow in turn had frosted ,the ice witha diamond, sheet, these same footprints were not only noticed on tho frosty covering, but at night a form, gliding with 'inexpressible grace, bearing a lighted taper in its hand, was observed to float, with a spirit motion, to the opposite shore . of the lake; and eluding all attempt at closer observa tion, preserve the itntical, distance he weeu herself and Lursurers. \Vlien the family nkla, a voice often tiveaceentn' to pouri stratus a. lament, movitg its hearers to tears. The daughter of Mr. Miles, an accomplished lingnst, averred that the words of the song w recertainly French, and scouted the ide of attaching super mani ° a' origin to th sincrer. ~. Thi) curiosity at last become so in tens. that Mr. Mil s, urged by the so licitations of his (la fighter, employed a 1 detective to ferret o a the intruder and discover the object in view, as well as the habitation, the location of which was totally iinknol, n, and, indeed, not even suspected. For a time the.m nifestations ceased, but again with approaching 'spring were renewed, .an still more curious sounds were heard ,and stranger Ole nomena,witnessed: ' The class of whi .1i Miss Miles was a member, deciding!, n a tour to Europe, the young lady 4.r a time left home, and made a, protracted stay in the Old World.

I A Sensation - in Actual Life. A. startlino-Instanee of the freaks in which "outAgeous fortune" sometimes revels has recently taken place in the family of a quondam magnate of Wall St., now retired and living in whet ele gance in the lower vicinity of Central Park. The gentleman, 'whose name "mought be" Jones, but isn't, returned some years since, with his,family, from Europe, bringing a young French girl, Susette, as nurse to the young babe. After.a few months she left the service of the family on seine triVial pretext, and another nurse being substituted, Susette was quite forgotten. Mrs. Jones had moved in fashionable circles, while rearing a family of three sons and four daughters,.the youngest of whom was the nursling of Susette, As years rolled on,/ , the 'youngest grow to be a blooming girl of twelve years, attend ing a hoarding school on the H4lson. The oldest daughter and two of the sods have married happily, and nothing is the serene prosperity of the household threatened to ruffle the the even to or of their riffief , Among other kind y promptings of their generous natures, the family has taken a deep interest in a humble widow woman supporting a family of five chlldren. She had for ninny years been intrusted with the family washing, which was usually re trailed by one of the girls of the ,faith ful laundress, and many little niceties were sent home by this girl, whose gen tle demeanor had so won upon Mrs. Jones that g•lie arranged for her partial education, and already regarded her as a sort of protege, for all •of which the poor widoW was profusely grateful, and• declared she would yet • make a lady of her." A few weeks since the family received a lett,er bearing the postmark of an obscure town in the south of France. It contained voluminous en closures, bearing official seals, all in French. A family council was con vened to decipher the contents, and many a jest bandied in the merry circle about the center-table, as catch contrib uted their 1: no‘vledge of written French' s in a loose cliirograpy, to get at the mean ing of so fornddable a missive. The younaest daughter, quite fresh in her studies, seemed to make more progress, 'and the mysterious docunients, first passing from hand to had, were finally allowed to rest before her, the rest of the group laughingly criticising her broken accents as she read slowly on. She hesitated—was met by another volley of badinage, which was strained her eyes more closely to the paper, pressed her jeweled hand upon her temples— turned ashy pale—uttered one scream, and fell back into her father's arms in a swoon ! It Was a fearful night with that strick en 11( . 418cl:old as they hovered over that senseless form. A physician hastily called in, seeking fiir a cause of the strange attack, was shown the scattered missives left upon the parlor floor. Be ing a fluent scholar he could read them readily, and there, in the dead hours Of night, the morning winds - without, and decaying tire in the grate, forming a weird scene, the blow fell uPou ready affrighted household ! No won der the poor girl had been stricken ddwn in reading her own doom—that she •was no child of theirs, but of a poor, Nyti4her woman ! The substance of- the death bed statements of Susette, which the letter contained, duly authenticated, was, that in taking her infant charge for an airing, she called as usual at the; Poor house. of the family laundress,' whose babe was of the same age With that of Mrs. Jones. That the woman begged me to sty and mind the chil dren while she took home, some 'Work. While alone in the house with'the two • infants, one of them pulled a hot iron upon it, burning it badly ; she 'applied such remedies.as she could seize upon, but in her fright fancied the injury must be fatal. It Was the infant in her charge! This she had no thought of at tho first moment, as there was a reinarkable resemblance between them. Overcome with fear, the Devil told her (to use her own language) "that the other babe would do Mrs. Jones just as well." The- clothing was quickly changed. Thepoor woman was encum bered with a sick and suffering infant until its recovery, which fact probably aided the deception. Mrs. Jones was quite ill at the time, and a wet . nurse was engaged for that very day ; so Susette successfully screened her dia bolical act, but still fearing a denoue ment, sought the first vacation. to get away to her own land. Unable, after a lapse of years, to die in peace, she made a full confession. The tinnily seek to itcrep the 'affitir very quiet. A lady - to whom the phy sician was quite devoted mentioned the filets etc .secrecy had been enjoind. The foster child •of the poor wid o w will be reinstated in her full rights, and be "made a huly," dire enough ; the widow's entire family are amply pro-. vided for, and the, poignant sorrow of the girl reared ,in luxury will be as suaged in a great degree by retaining bWposition of a: daughter.

Pitfalls will take a lion, and the famished mon- Sroli of the forest will,' after a few days tarvation, dart into a'eage containing food and thus be secured. But how are the monkeys caught? The ape family resemble man. Their vices are human.. They lOve liquor, and fall. In Darfour and Sennar the natives make fermented beer, of which the monkeys are excess ively fond, Aware of this, the natives go to the parts of the forests frequented by the monkeys and set on the ground calabashes full of th enticing liquor. i As soon as a monkey' sees and tastes 'it, he utters loud cries qf Joy, that soon . attract his comrade Then an orgie begins, and in a'short time the beasts show all degrees of intoxication. Then the negroes appear. Tho few who come too late to get fuddled escape. The drinkers 'are too far gone to distrust them, but apparently take ) them for larger species of their own genus. The negroes take some up, and these imme diately begin to weep and cover them with maudlin kisses. When a negro takes one by the•hand to lead him oft; tho nearest monkey -will cling to the one who thus finds a support - and en deavor to get off also. , Another will grasp at him, and thus in turn till the negro leads a staggering line of ten or a dozen tipsy monkeys. Wheh finally got to the village they are secuilily caged, gradually sober down ; b' . r E and t. for two or three days' , a gradually diit inishing supply ofiliquor is given the ,so as to reconcile them by degrees to their state of captivity. I . THE QUESTION ANSWERED —some body—a woman of course inquires why, when Eve was manufactured from the spare-rib, a servant wasn't made at the same time to wai ;on her? Somebody else—a woman, we imagine —replies in the following strain : 'Be cause Adam never - came whining to Eve, and with:a ragged stocking to be darned ; collar string to be sewed on, or a glove to mend, right away, quick now P _Because he never read the news papers, until the sum got down behind the palm trees,_ and then stretching himself, yawned out, ' Ain't supper most ready, my dear?'—Not he. He : made the tire, an hung the kettle over it himself, we'll venture, and pulled the radishes, pe led the potatoes, and \ did everything ese he ought to do. He milked the cow. M'ed the chickens and looked after the '3lO - '' s. himself.- - He nev er brought home half a dozen friends to dinner when Eve had'nt• any fresh pomegranates, and the mango season was over.
