New York in search Of more con enial em-

earl streets stood the old Tontine coffee-
house, a famous resort for the merchants
and ship owners of those days, and in con-
nection with it there was an admirable news

position. He was one of the most active

men of his day, and Harnden went to him

for advice in seeking employment. Hale

became interested in him, and in the course

of a few days advised him to establish him-

self as an expressman between New York'

and Boston—a business never before trans-

acted,and a name never before aSsumed.

As there have been other claimants to the ’

honor of having originatedthe enterprise, .
and as Mr. Hale is still living, I will repeat
the statement which he made to me in J uly
last. There never was a day, he said, that
inquiries were not made. at the news room
for some person going to Providence or
~-Boston. Some wanted-to send small’par-
eels to their friends,‘ others letters Or circu-
lars; but the most frequent applicants were
money brokers, who wanted to forward
packages of eastern bank notes to Boston
for redemption. If an acquaintance- was
found on the boat, he was pounced ,upon
without ceremony, and burdened with pack-
ages, which were sometiines worth many
thousand dollars. But if a friend did not
appear, the things were oftcr intrusted to
entire strangers, with the modest request
after their arrival. Merchants and brokers
letters, contributed largely to the cxcitemeu
attending the departure of'a steamer, and
many persons will remember the nights of
anxiety they have passed on the sound when
such unexpected wealth had been tempora-
rily thrust upon them. “When Harnden
called upon me for advice," Mr. Hale stated,

my office, ‘ DO you know anybody going to ,
Boston this evening?’ and 1 immediately
advised him to travel between the two .
cities and do errands for the business men.
I also suggested that the new enterprise
should be called ‘The Express,’ which ave
the idea of speed, promptitude and fidelity.”

RECENT DISCOVERIES a'r POMI'EI.—A N a-
ples newspaper reports the discovery at
Pompei 'of a number of wooden tablets with
writings. They were found carefully ar-
ranged in an ivory box. The backs Of the
tablets are smooth and unwritten upon, and
their faces. upon which the writing is found
are surrounded with a kind of frame or-bor-
der. They are either separate or tied to-
ether book sham, with twine, in bundles
of three or tour. On the tablets thus bound
together, the writing is almost always in
ink; but the characters on the single ones,
which had been wax covered, were engrave
ed, and are still legible though 'the wax has
disappeared, as the sharp point of the style
had cut into the wood beneath. 'The sepa-
rate tablels contain receipts for payments of
money, and bear the consular date, with the
name of the day and the month, and the
amount paid. On the outside edge of the
center tablet of those bound up in book
form, is written an index of the names con-
tained in the volume. It is entitled perscn'p-
tie, and is followed with a name in.» e gen-
ilive or dative. ' - . . - ‘
’ The tablets are evidently accounts, and
’ from the way in which they are kept there
,can be no doubt‘that the spot where they
were found was the site of a Roman bank-
ers house. They were discovered in excel-
lent condition, though the damp to which
they had been exposed has rendered them
very fragile. Those bound together are in
the best state of preservation. Signor Fi-
orelli has given an account of the discovery
to the Archaeological academy of Naples,
and it is expected that it will throw much
light upon the conduct of business transac-
tions under the empire. .

alarmed him. '

“ I dare not love her 1” he muttered to
himself. . “ I am bound 1" '

.Then, for the first time, he felt how heavy
were the fetters that bound him. She no-
ticed the change. She tried to begulle him
to forget the grief that was evidently hear-

tion, he told her all.

" I am a married man 1” said he impul-
sively. “.I lOve you, and I am not free to

She recoiled, but bade him tell her all.

“ It was cruel, unkind of her, to bind you
so,” she said.

“ No, no i” he ejaculated. “ She saved me
—she blessed me—and I shall always re- .

until I met you. New I shall be miserable
