Mr. Ji'nks. \ilif> mailo tin' 1 first remark, wa* movt-il Uifnl" l'V Hit- lai't that old .Ti'Sish Human, "who was the richest man ii. HIP county, and had hwtoforo k.»pt •with Jenks & Barton the larpost sum of inoripy of any ol tho*<* who put their fund» Into the bank, had drlvi-n up and prc&i-nti'd a check for the exact amount. It was so larpp a sum that it had made some little ptir before it was handed through the little window. "I vendor what that means, now?" Mr. .Tenks said, with a long face. "I think," said Mr. Barton, who always spi.kf* very slowly, as it weighing each word, "that Jo'dah £Ulman is a little off hi= head. H» sold his interest in the factories." "And did not deposit one farthing of the purchase money here. I thought that was odd." "He is turninpc evtrything into nioney —gold. He gets gold for every dollar. I believe he means to go abroad and take his fortune- with him in gold." "Is Sunny Slope for sale?'* asked Mr. Jenks, quickly. "Not that I have heard. "Want to buy?" "Yes. It is the prettiest place about here. By the way, have you had any news about Craigc-' Mr. Barton frowned ominously. "Why should I have any news about hlm'f" * "I thought perhaps Hattie— Young folks will be young folks, you know." "I know" how the frown deepened— "that my daughter Harriet has been for- bidden to correspond with Craige Hil- man, and that the childish engagement between them no longer exists." "Then he has lost everything—love and all!" said Mr. Jenks, hastily, "Poor boy !—poor, ill-treated boy !" "Why does he oppose his father?" aske_d Mr. Barton, so hotly and hastily that'Mr, Jenks looked at him in utter amazement. Never had he heard ivords come from his partner's mouth with such rapidity. "Why cannot lie humor the old man's whims for a few more years? To throw away half a million of money— fur I don't believe one cent less would enver Josiah Hilman's fortune—for a chimera!" "Stop!" said Mr. Jenks, suddenly. "Do not call Craige Hilman's resolve by such a name. He feels that he is called to the ministry by gifts God-given. Fortunately, his mother's fortune, small as it is, will enable him to live in simple comfort, and study for the ministry." "Well, Imust be off," said Mr. Barton, uneasily; "we cannot agree upon this subject, so we will not discuss it. Hattie M.M-* what is best." l>i>l s h e ? Mr. Barton made it his boast that in his own family his word was law. A tyrant in a household is a pi.wer to be dreaded, and there was not one of Mr. Barton's family who did not shiver at the sound of his slow, ponder- ous step, and measured voice. When the bon and heir of the richest man iu Hilmanton wooed pretty ilattie, Mr. I'arD'u's eldest daughter, for his wife, iii« one smiled more genially upon the viimi; couple than the old banker. But \\l..-n' Craige utterly refused to take his la'.'icr's business, and devoted his life to the open service of his Creator, Mr. HtlmauV wrath was not greater than ti.ar of Mr. Barton's. Hattie was for- l-i<idi'ti e v e n to think of her lover again. SiUe was a little blue-eyed mite, with s'llt, golden curls, a slight, graceful tig- luv. below the medium height, and ashy, timid manner. A girl to be easily cowed aud kept in subjection, every one thought. Yet her farewell now to Craige contained these words, amidst a framework of lov- lt.;.' i * pressions: 1 ..1 wlm are sacnu<'iii£ e%ctytliuig for duty, •*<!] i..'t a-fc n.f toiliBobi'.v nij father while he has tl;*- ru-l.t I.J i-'introl my a''Uunp. In two yuars 1 s-hali b- tw-nt%-one. If >.ni j-uli luve me, ctmif fur n.i.- th n. and I will bt- your wife. I ahall n---\ t r i. ax. t" low 5uu and tu nray for you," It was pretty to see how her character dc\i loped after sending the letter. She made no attempt at clandestine corre- spondence, asked no questions about ( rai_'e. was quietly helpful as she had al- ways been in her home. But she was more self-reliant, less timid and shy, eager to learn all household mysteries, and. learned to sew upon her own dresses and boniiet- "I may i-- a poor man's wife," she said, ..nee, wl'ei; leased about her new fancies, ••ar.d if s '. 1 must bo rny own milliner and drcs.--u.aki r." For three months after Craige Hilman hft his home his father spent all his tunc in gathering together all his wealth in gold. It began to be the snlijeet of no.eh comment, and many shook their b- uds wisely. ••He'll be murdered in his bed some night.' th'-y said, and were elated with their siiiru'of prophecy when one morn- ing the entire household force of Sunny Smt'e rushed mt i Hilmanton to tell of an awful midnight tiagedy. Josiah hilman had been murdered tu his bed! It was a hideous, brulal mur- dei, every mark of robbery ami cruelly l.einfc h-ft in tin- room. Craige was siimuioi.e 1 from the theo- legieai aead''! v.; and found himself heir to SUIU.J Nhpc only. L\eiy \estige of the gold ua.- gone. Iu \am the hou^e was, teaiclied; to will was there, and not oueof the thousands of gold coins the oh! man had gaihere 1 together. J> ni;s Jt Barton knew of three hundred ll.nu-ard do'lais in bonds that had noi jet ' e.-u will, but they were as good ae itioney in the hands of the thief; and they, too, w ere gone. Craige shut the house up after the fu- neral, put tin- matter into the hands of the police, and returned to the academy. He studied hard and conscientiously, but with a pure heart, a noble inteUect, aud a lirni resolution to keep his self-iuiposed \ovs; he was but human, and he grieved for his lost In- e, and for the wealth that would have given him the power to do So much good. The two years had passed which finished Craige Hilman's course of study, a:.d he entered the ministry. He saw 31c. B*rton, and once more received a stern refusal to his suit. "Your private fortune will barely feed and clothe you," said the old banker, "und you may not have a salary for years." "I shall sell Sunny Slope, and it ought to bring a good price." "It may and it may not! But I will not have Hattie disturbed. She lias for- gotton all the past folly !" But when Craige returned home in the garden of Sunny Slope a little figure waited for him. "You love me stUl, Craige?" she said, in answertohis *" apturous greeting. "I nave never ceased to love you for one hour." "Then I will be your wife whenever you will. I a m of age now, and I have a right to decide my own life. Craige," she said earnestly, "I would not say this if father had any real reason to forbid me to love you." He told her his plana to sell hie old hone and trj to get a parish in some wasters city, sad they parted with loving TOWS of eoBMaaey. Perhaps Mr. Jsrtoa *kay have felt be- fore la hie life the ssaaatioa of utter saMssissat, bat eertaialy it was never atrostger than when Hatue, two month* later, told him that Craige had fold Buaay Slope to Mr. Jeaka. sad aeeeptsd • parish Is Wiaooaaia, •""'-g ataply : "I shall aisrry Crsige tat asi ws start lor his asw ^hsoM hosMtaeseit aawjrs rsae was past da est Us Mttls bWwye. ensas ssi wmmtmtm. oaiy i Xiw^infe" "I'm a misrrabi" oh? bachelor," he paid. <-hakingCraige>rmnd warmly, "but I can Fyrnp'ttbiyc with yonng people Years ap>. if •">'' heart bad lw»en a^ true t o m e as» H a t t i e s has been to yon. my old ape would not be so lonely." Tie parish In Wisconsin proved no sinecure It -»ras in a, comparatively new pp?tlrmrt)t, and Hattic's honwwlfely ac- compUshments were called Into full activity, not only for her own home, but to help many an overworked wife and mother who had to learn that emigration meant the facing of new and hard labors. They were very poor, the '.alary being email, and tlte price of Sunny Slope being put in the Hilmanotn bank for a rainy day. Their charities were self-denials always, and the good they did rested but little \ipon the length of their purse. But after three years Craige received a letter from Mr. Jenks, the ownpr of Sunny Slope. He wrote: ' In ranking »n alteration in my koine, Ornigu, 1 tore dAvn » portirm of the chimney waU of your father'* room In a ravttv. plastered over, and jw. pored K> »« to defy detect on. I found what we had •uppoacd lost forever—your father s fortune. What- ever he intendedtodisclose concerning this hiding- place was prevented "by h»e eudden death. Need I say that Sunny Slope is again for sale, if yon and Hatth return hi it."' "Oh, Craige'' Hattie cried, "how can we tan e our work here!" "You shall decide," he said, "Bemem- ber it will be a life of perfect ease aud luxury at Sunny Slope." "But here we have one of usefulness. Oh, Craige," as possibilities began to un- fold themselves, "we might build a church ! Xhiuk of a real church instead of benches in a barn !" "And a schoolhouse," said Craige, "where little Miss W r est need not live all winter in terror of draughts and neural- gia." My story ia written, Long ago Mr. Jenks passed away, leaving Sunny Slope to Hattie. The Bartons live * there, and Hattie makes Hying visits, and sends her children to be petted by their grandparents, aunts and uncles; and when the year's work is done there is lit- tle left of the year's income, though there are few people in his parish who.live more simply or work more faithfully than Craige Hilman and his wife.—Sf. Y. Led- ger. TUK MA'tSELLLAISK. Graphlr Draerlptlon of H a w t k a Sasg Waa Written by De l.lal». Of all the airs which deserve to be termed national that of the French "Mar- seillaise " is, without doubt, the most lively and exciting. The sound and the •words of it make the blood'tinkle in men's veins, and whole armies and assemblages in France have sung it with eyes weeping and burning, with hearts defiant ot "death, despot and devil." Owing to its electrifying power the singing of "The Marseillaise' 1 has often been prohibited by the French authorities. Considering the extraordinary part which the "Marseillaise" has played in the affairs of France, we might not unre- sonably expect that the words aud air h;nl emanated from some genius who had bestowed much labor and care on their production. And yet, as the story goes, both words and music were writ- ten iu one ulght, without any previous sketching out or after elaboration. The author or composer, lfouget do Lisle, was an officer of engineers, who had formerly been a teacher of music. He was greatly admired among his acquaint- ances for his poetical ar.d musical gifts, and was especially intimate with Baron Dietrich, the mayor of Strasburg. One evening during the spring of 1792 De Lisle was the. guest at the table of this family. The baron's resources had been so gteatiy reduced by the necessi- ties and calamities of war that nothing better than garrison bread and a few slices of ham could be provided for dinner. Dietrich smiled sadly at his friend, and lamenting the scantiness of his fare, de- clared that he would bring forth the last remaining bottle of Bhine wine in his cellar if he thought it would help to in- spire De Lisle in the composition of a pa- triotic song. The ladies signilied their approval, and the baron sent for the lost bottle of wine the house could boast of. After dinner De Lislo returned to his solitary chamber, and in a lit of enthusi- asm, with which the wine must have had little enough to do, composed the words and music of the song which have immortalized his name. The following morning he hastened with it to his friend Dietrick, in whose house it was snnc for the first time, exciting great enthusiasm. A few days afterward it was publicly per- formed in Strasburg, and ten days later was sung a t a public banquet at Mar- seilles with so much effect that it was printed at once and distributed among the troops just starting for Paris. They entered the capital singing their new hymn, which they had called "Chant des Marsciltais," and soon the tune was known throughout every part of France. De Lisle's claim to the authorship was at one time disputed, but the- truth of the story here given regarding the origin of the "Marseillaise" has long since been proved beyond a doubt.—N. Y. Mail and Express. A Slow Eartliquaka, An earthquake of the most unusual character, says the Japan Mail, was re- corded on April IS, in the Seisinologieal Observatory of the Imperial University, Tokio. The peculiarity lies, not in its violence, but in the extreme slowness of the oscillations. The beginning of the shock had all the characteristics of t h e ordinary earthquake, but gradually the motion augmented until a t a certain stage of the quake it reached 17 mm., but the ground swayed so gently that the house did not vibrate visibly nor were our senses alive to it. It took from four seconds to seven seconds to complete oue forth and hack motion a most unusual phenom- enon and one certainly never before noted in the observatory. The motion was almost entirely confined to the hori- zontal plane and mostly south and north, but there were a few vertical moments of equally slow periods. This stalt'of things lasted for ten minutes and thirty seconds. Prof. C. D. West, of the Engineering College, observed the water iu a small pond in the compound to oscillate from north to south. At one time the water level fell about two inches on one side of the pond aud exposed the batik, while in another few seconds the water immersed it nearly to the same depth, exposing tho opposite bauk, and this proeess con- tinued for a quarter of an hour. Slow oscillations of . this nature have been called earth pulsations, and these usually take place when there, is a destructive earthquake or a submarine disturbance going on at a great distance. Earth pul- sations are known to have caused slow oscillations of the water in lakes. From this fact it may not be unreasonable to conjecture thata terrestrial or submarine agitation of unusual magnitude has taken place somewhere. 1! a ran llollacli'a ckcrkcrml Mfe. extraordinary skill as a chess player brought fame, wealth and a title to the late Baron Kolisch, of Vienna. While yet a- boy he left his humble Austrian home, with but a few thulers in his pocket, to seek ids fortuue. lie drifted to Varis, where, after suffering great pri- vation and poverty, he finally won a rep- utation among chess players, and his prosperity begun. Iticli and influential men became his pupils, and he stood high in their favor. Baron Rothschild helped him establish a bank in Vienna; but his accumulation of wealth was not as rapid as it was later on, in the Paris Stock Ex- change. He played chess with President Grevy in the evening, and dabbled in stocks during the day, political informa- tion received from the statesman helping him, it was believed, in making success- ful ventures. A few years ago he returned to Vienna, and devoted much of his time in collecting paintings and altar cloths, while he also tried editing and publish- a paper, but with Indifferent success. He was raised to the nobility by the Grand Puke of Weimar.—N. Y. Tele- gram. n«a*Mljr f»r Kamlaaa Uaa.

A few month"* !\RO a small party of gen- tlemen of seiontilie i-astos started on an expedition, not free from danger, with the object of renehing and, if po*<i!il<>, menmiring and lixing the position of the Sutherland waterfall, go eallod after t .A discoverer, who up to then was the only human being known to have aeeoniplKhed the feat. The first step on their journey. Milford Bound, was reached on the 27th of September, ami here wetv landeil all the necessary M\ajjs, the colonial term for a knapsack, ami pnnisious, togetlu - r with material for ,-i c a n v a s b o a t for v-e inlaml iu crossing Lake Ada. The fol- lowing account of their adventure is taken from notes by oue of the party, Mr. Mackenzie. M. ll. It., and published In the Otago Daily Times: lit passing, mention must bo mado that the grandeur of this tqtot can hardly be realized by those, who are not ac- quainted with the New Zealand bays. Lovely as is the peculiar beauty of the Swiss Alps, ami reminded, as one con- stantly is in this country, of the unspeak- able charm of its picturesque valleys and snow-laden mountains, yet therj) is an immeasurably awe-inspiring grandeur in this unknown region, whore the foot- fall of man is unheard, and tho only sounds are the songs of strange and beautiful birds, and the rippling or roar of waterfalls and courses. From Milford sound, each party pro- ceeded to Lake Ada, to which stores. swags, boat, etc., had to be carried bod- ily through tho bush; no easy undertak- ing, through its unyielding and prickly tangle. However, the lake was readied; and next day saw the fruil canvas cra^t put together which was to carry tho ad- venturers across it, This trip, says Mr. Mackenzie, proved a very danger- ous on«, tho wholo surface of the lake being a mass of snags. Accounting for tills he says that at some early period, a heavy avalanche Is supposed to have come down and formed a moraine across the mouth of the Arthur river, thus trans- forming a comparatively level flat of high birch trees Into a lake of from ten to forty feet deep. The trees have de- cayed between the air and the water- line, the water preserving the timber, so that now the hike simply bristles witii sharp edged tops of huge tree*, some a foot above water, other six indies ; some just tipping tho surface, and others at all depths. The wind was blowing a little fresh, just causing a ripple suffi- cient to prevent our seeing the sub- merged points. As a consequence, we were continually getting on to them; but fortunately none came through, although the sixteenth of a n inch of cotton canvas was was all that was between us aud them. The lake is about four and a half utile* long by a mile to a mile and a half wide. On either hand huge mountains rise al- most perpendicularly from the water's edge, covered with snow and ice, and waterfalls come tumbling down on all sides. On the right, Terror Peaks aud Giants' Gates (7,000 feet) are tho most remarkable features. Ducks of every varietv skim upon the surface of the lake, auch as paradise, blue mountain, gray and teal. These abound and pay little heed to strangers. Several gigantic mountains—among them the Castle, the Danger, Mount Hall and Mount Daniel- surround us, rising from six to seven thousand feet high, and we saw some fine avalanches coming down the Barron slopes with a thundering roar. Several rivers fall into the head of the lake. We selected the center one, which turned out to be the Poseidon, and, after rowing about two miles up, night coming on, the party camped. "I must leave to some able writer," Mr. Mackenzie says, "the work of pic- turing to the world in suitable language the grandeur of what will soon be known as the highest waterfall in the world. It consists of three lenps in au almost di- rect line; but when standing about a quarter of a mile aWay, it has the ap- pearance of a straight -leap with two breaks. The two upper leaps are equi- distant, and the lower one shorter." From a more detailed account the fol- lowing is taken: "The water issues from a narrow defile in the rock at the top of the precipice; it then niukcs one grand leap of 815 feet into a rocky basin on the face of the cliff; issuing forth once more, it makes another fine leap of 751 feet; and then goes tumbling headlong in ono wild dash of 338 feet into the pool rischt at the foot of the precipice. It will be seen the total height of tho fall is 1,901 feet, thus making it the highest waterfall that has yet been discovered in the world. Pro- ceeding right on to tho pool at tho foot —hewn out, we are told, by the heavy fall of water from tiic mound of stones and debris projected over iu times of Hood—at the expense, however, of get- ting drenched with the spray, a splendid view of tho whole is obtained; and when the sun is shining the effect is enhanced by a beautiful rainbow of colors of the most brilliant kind* conceivable. This bow is nearly a full circle; and tho closer you get to it the smaller it grows, till it is right in front of your face—a brilliant- hued ring a yard in diameter." Many uncommon ferns aud plants as well as rare birds were met with in this solitary region; among the latter was a lovely bird, the scarlet wattlecrow, also the New Zealand thrush und the saddle- back. Kiwis, rowas (the wingless birds), and kakapo (the ground parrot), were fairly plentiful, it is said.—Chambers' Journal. MILLINERY!

An interesting surtrical operation is re- ported in England. The patient had a small tumor in a large nerve on the arm. In removing it some of the nerve was itself unavoidably taken away, causing a loss of sensation in those portions of tho skin to which the nerve led. The sur- geon, nothing daunted, performed a sec- ond operation forty-eight hours after the first. He then took a piece of healthy nerve from a leg he had just amputated. u:i 1 i atchca up the injured nerve, wall it. In thirty-six hours sensation re- turned, aud the subsequent progress of i.'se iNiticii} gave evidence of complete recovery.—N. Y. Telegram. O.a'1 Forget Year Upsra Olaas.i i. In connection with tho Portland wed- ding presents, a not unaiuusing story was current in London. A well-known and popular gentleman, on arriving at hU club from tuo theater, discovered that, he had unwittingly annexed a pair of costly opera glosses in a dainty blue vel- vet case. H e a t once instructed tho hall porter to restore them to the owner, who resided a t a certain number in Gros- venor crescent: The ser.-ant. however, left them St the same number Groeveuor place, where they were regarded In the light of a very handsome and moat appropri- ate wedding present, 'file ownor t(C . came Uf.ea y, hut ih • pji-L. r ttil-i sure he had iiiailc no luis'.uk.-. and the nivsiery remained unsolved uutll the lady in ques- tion accidentally saw her glasses oil the ledge of an opera box occupied a by ducal party.
