“I Cannot."

“Hear me, father !” and the dark eyes
looked up beseechingly, and the white
lips quivered as she spoke. ' “I cannot
comply with you request ; I cannot marry
Victor Wayne. I'do not love him, father,
dear ; and would you sacrifice your Eva,
your only child, to a man she dislikes,
and even hates ?”

”Girl, leave my presence, and, when
you are calm, I will hear you! But
stay! Remember! refuse Victor Wayne’s
proposal, and I disown you as my child

' . forever!” - .

Thus spoke George Clifton, the wealthy
merchant, to his only "child, over whose
head I scarce seventeen summers had
passed. '

“What! Eva Clifton refuse to be the
adored bride of Victor Wayne? Nay,
she shall be his! To-morrow morning he
comes for his answer, and he shall not be

disappointed. She shall and must
obey !" ~
‘ When Clara Milton, Eva’s best friend,
called, she found the young ladyin tears.
She knew that Eva was engaged to Ed-
gar St. Clair, and that that gentleman in-
tended to inform Mr. Clifton of his at-
tachment next day. .

“Oh, your father may change his
mind, Eva,” said Clara, at length; “ and,
if he would inquire of my father and
other gentlemen in regard to Mr. Wayne's
character (for he is a well-known gam-
bler), I_ am positive he would dispense
with his company altogether. But I
must go, Eva. I shall see you soon
again, and I hope you may be more
cheerful than you are at presen ”

Soon after Clara’s departure the ser-
vant entered.

“ Your father awaits you, Miss Eva. "

“Oh! I had almost forgotten. Tell
him I will be there in a few moments.”

After arranging her mass of jetty locks
she went down to meet the stern,'proud
look of her father. '

“Good evening, father! I am sorry
to have kept you waiting. I amnat your
service now, father. What is it you
wish ?” ,

“Your decision, child. Have you con-
cluded to become the wife' of Victor
Wayne 2”

“Father, I love you fervently, I love
to obey you in all things, but I can never
marry Victor Wayne.” .

“Then you must leave my house. "

“Father, would you-could you throw
me into the streets, friendless and alone ?
0h, father, a pale face from Heaven looks
pityingly down upon you, and that face
is like mine, father! ’Tis my angel
mother’s face."

A tear was in that proud man’s eye,
for he, too, had once loved, and that love
was Eva’s mother. .

“Well, come, Eva; have .you flavor
yet thought of marriage—have you never

loved ?”

“I have, father. "

fro in an excited manner. '

cipient of your love i”

“I again ask you-who ?”

“Edgar St. Clair, father.” 3

“What i" exclaimed the indignant
man,—“that poor, unsophisticated law-
yer ?" ' »

“Call him what you wish, father; but
he is noble, and 1, Eva Clifton, love him.

. He is poor, ’tis true; but he is educated,
and has every accomplishment that is
necessary for a young man's . education.
He can work, he can give me bread, and,
with his love, ’tis all I ask. Now discard
me if you will, father; but hear me.
Sooner than become the wife of a gambler
I will be the wife of a poor man l”

“ Victor Wayne 9. gambler? ’Tis false.
He will be here in the morning, and I
will inform him of the flattering compli-
pliments M. St. Clair has bestowed upon
him."

“Father, itwas not Edgar that gave

 

father, ~ and I will

me the desired information. No, itwas
not he, but ’tis I, your child, proclaims
Victor Wayne a gambler and a ccoundrel!
Tell him it was I, and-I will stand before
himanddefyhim to denyhimself to be
one or the most notorious gamblers in
the world I" .

The child's form Was perfectly erect.
and the eyes were defiant. ’ >

" Leave me,,Eva !-—lecve me, child! .I
will think of the ma ."

' ' She left the room without any hesito»

, tiop whatever, thinking about what her

' ‘ father had said in regard to Mr. Wayne’s
calling in the morning.

Poor Eva passed a sleepless night, but
morning at length dawned, and the un-
happy girl arose from her couch weary

, and carcworn. Her beautiful face was
very pale, and the dark eyes were sunken
in their sockets.

“Edgarl—oli, Edgar, how much I do
suffer for you ! But there is one thing I
am determined to do. In preference to
meeting Mr. Wayne this morning. I will
prepare to go to Clara’s and spend the
day.

Ringing a tiny bell near by, she pro-
ceeded to dress. The servant at length
arrived.

“ Madge, tell Dick to have the carriage
ready as soon as possible. And if father
inquires for me, tell him I have gone to
take my morning ride. Has he left the
house yet 2’" '

¥E1“No, ma’am; he is sitting in the

V’rar‘y, and ordered me to keep a look-
out for the door, and if Mr. Wayne
called, to admit him, but no one else
under any consideration. There was a
young gentleman called this morning,
and asked for your father ; but I did as I
was prdered, and told him Mr. Clifton
was not at home. He then asked if you
wercjn. Lipid him I would gee? as I

 

“ Mr. Wayne, remember whom you
are addressing!” said Eva, growing pas-
sionate. “I shall summon my father,
sir I 1!

“Your father is not here," said he,
with‘a fiendish look.

"I have those, sir, who will prove
friends at the time of need."

“I amvery glad to hear it. I hope
you esteem me as a friend of yours.”

“-I do not, sir; in my estimation you

stand very low. " ,
“Come, no insinuations,
tell you I” 3
“Imean what I‘ say, sir; and I will
not degrade myself by keeping company
with you any longer. ’.’
So saying, she left the room; and he,
with an oath, left the house.
“I will win her yet,” mused he, as he
went on. “My love has turned to hatred;
but aslong as I have the father on my
.side, ’tis sufi‘icient, for she shall and will
be mine. Not because I care for her '
particularly; but she has money, and I
must have it.”

Eva was still in her room, weeping,
and thinking of her heartless father, who
would sell her to a villian whom he sup-
posed had gold.

And where was Edgar St. Clair all this
time? In one of the most busy streets of
the city stands a large brick building.
We go up one staircase, another, and still
another, and the first door we come to on
the left side of the narrow hall has a sign
on it, "Edgar St. Clair, Solicitor.” Let
‘us peep in.‘ His ofiice is small but com-
fortable. And there is our hero. He is
sitting by his table, not reading, as we
should suppose, but he seems absorbed
in thought. He looksweary and care-
worn; his cheek rests on his hand, and
his chestnut locks fall on his noble brow.
“I do not believe that she, my dark-
eyed Eva, is false. But those words,
' Miss Eva cannot see you,'—they do not
sound as if they fell from her lips. I
will not judge her harshly, though she is
all the world to me. But of what use is
it to grieve? I will mend the matter. I
will call at her residence in the morning,
and I will see her, and ask an explanation
of her strange conduct, as I am not aware
of any offence that I have given."

"‘Well, Well, Mr. Wayne promised to
call this morning. I cannot imagine
what detains him," said Mr. Clifton.
“The appointed hour has passed ,« But
perhaps something has happened. - I will .
walk down to his house and see. 3

Just after Mr. CliftOn’s departure Ed-
gar arrived.

”Is Miss Clifton at home?" inquired
he. - -
“Shoic, sir. Walk in."

He waited patiently for her appear-
ance. .

“Oh, Edgar, I am so glad you have
come 1” said Eva, blushing deeply.

But we will leave them, and follow Mr.
Clifton. ‘
“ Foolish Eva. you will never
such another chance.” '
While thus musing, his attention was
attracted to a large crowd of persons, on
the opposite side, in front of Mr. Wayne's
house. He crossed over, pushed through
the crowd, and, stepping to the door, in-
quired for Mr. Wayne. Before the serv-
ant could answer' him, two inquisitive
fillicemen stepped up, exclaiming, “He
is the very fellow we are after. Can you
tell us anything Of his whereabouts?” I

”I cannot, sir; upon my word, I can-
not !” exclaimed theterrified man. _

“There was a man murdered in Mr.
Wayne's roam last night, audthen robbed
of a large amount of money; and Mr.
Wayne and a brother gambler are the
supposed murderers !”

Not waiting to hear more, .
homeward, asking for Eva as‘soon as the
door was opened.

“She has company in the parlor, sir,"
replied the servant; .”a young gentle:
man, sir. "

“I trust it is not Mr. Wayne. But if
it is he must leave my house" in peace, or

have

walked in; and going right up to Edgar,
exclaimed, "Good morning, my boy——
good ‘morning! I am very glad. to see
you—extremely! Do not feel slighted,
Eva, my darling!"-—-stooping and kiss-
ing her brow. ' _ .

Eva looked at her father, then . at Ed-
gar, wondering what could have produced
such a change. -

“ Father, you look Worried and excitu
ed,” she said, anxiously. '

Mr. Clifton's head was bowed. Eva
rushed to him; and throwing her arms
around his neck, implored him to tell
her what was the matter.

“My ling child—my Eva—forgive
me! Ihave wronged you—deeply wronged
you! Iwould have sold your life to a
gambler :aud scoundrel! But, thank

lated his story ;' and after he was through _
it, he said, “ Edgar, I know you love my

precious child, and she has ah-eady told

me she loves you! Come here, Eva,

daughter." Placing her hand in that of

Edgar, he said; “Take her, Edgar. You

are worthy of her; and that you may

both be happy is my earnest prayer 1”

Six weeks later there was a brilliant
wedding at the residence o't George Clif-
ton, Esquire, and the happy bride was
Eva, and the groom was the unsopllisti- .
cated lawyer, Edgar St. Clair.

came of the appointment of Arnold by ,
Congress to be a brigadier general.

the various horses bought, sold, and
used by the Continental army in 1777,

CUTTING OFF WOMEN’S NOSESL

The horrible crime of mutilating wom-
eli by cutting offtheir noses is so com-
mon in Bombay as‘to call for the most
stringent repression, and nothing, we im—
agine, will repress it but the free use of
the lush. In the Sessions ending recent-
ly, Mr. Justice Scott-had to hear three
-—we might say five—of these cases, one
after the other. He postponed his sen-
tences for a week, and wc'wcre in hopes
that he would in each case order the
criminals to be flogged within an ace of
their lives.

Eventually,

however, he sentenced

' them severally to what he had ascertained

to be the usual punishment, three years’
rigorous imprisonment. We are inclined
to regret that the learned Sessions Judge,
now as he is to the country, did not
throw precedent over altogether. Surely
these are cases in which the lash would
be at once the most fitting punishment
and the best deterrent.

Estimated by the misery inflicted, even
the most severe penalties would seem too
trivial, and if the law does not permit of
flogging in the cases of such cruel muti-
lation, the law should be altered. The
miserable women who are mutilated in
this way are, of course, rendered hideous
ever afterward, and, because they are
women, it is simply impossible to calcu-
latezthe misery and degradation that they
will experience during the rest of their
lives, No amount of imprisonment will
eradicate a crime that is still evidently a
customary form of martial punishment
among the loWer classes. But a whole-

mon to the degraded-classes all the world

' over.

ONE OF hummus" BEST.

Of the countless good stories attributed
toArtemus Ward, the best one, perhaps,
is one which tells of the advice which he
gave to a southern railroad conductor
soon after the war. The road was in a
wretched condition, and the trains, con-
sequently, were run at a phenomenally
low rate of speed. When the conductor
was punching his ticket, Artcmus rc-
marked,——'-' , _ .

‘3‘ Does this railroad company allow
passengers to give it advice, if they do so
in a respectful manner ?”

The conductor replied .in gruff tones
that he supposed so.

‘3 Well, ” Artemus went on, ‘ ‘it occurred
to me that'it would be well to detcch the
cow-catcher from the front of the'engine
and hitch it to, the rear of the train; for
you see we arenot liable to overtake a

into this car and biting a passenger?"

for diamonds in this direction will be in-

tresses and leaders in fashion make a
point of not wearing ear-rings. They
say a pretty ear is disfigured by them,
and that more attention is attracted to
homely ones with these attacked orna-
ments. There are several women» in
5 Newport, worth their millions, who own
superb diamonds, but not one set in ear-
rings, as they consider them a disfigur-
ing barbarous fashion.

BKARRIAGE IN CHINA.

 

I had not been at the hotel in Hong
kong five minutes before my attentiol'
was distracted by a terrific noise. Rush-
ing to the front balcony I wal just in
time to see quite a remarkable wedding
procession. At first, from the noise and
general style of the affair, I thought i!
was a funeral, but I Soon discovered the
difference. First came a dozen musi-
cians who were beating gangs and blow-
ing fish horns, each apparently without
any reference to the rest. Then followed
a company of men and boys bearing flags
and lanterns, after which came a series
of gilded tables with elaborately carved
and painted canopies over them, and all
sorts of eatables upon them.

The display of fruit was quite tempt-
ing, and I longed for a slice of the roast
pig and the roast‘sheep. But there were
also native dishes, which, by experiment,
I found to be far from appetizing.
Thus far, everything was arranged just
as a funeral procession would be, and
was composed of the same features. But
now there was a slight departure from
the funeral order of things. There came
a magnificent sedan chair, the windows
of which were thoroughly curtained, but
which I was told contained the happy
bride. This gorgeous-sedan chair was
followed by others, also by gayly deco-
rated jinnikishas, in which were seated
the relatives of the contracting parties.
More so-called musicians, followed, and
the procession wound up with a load of
boxes, which, I inferred, contained the
marriage offerings, and, perhaps, the
trousseau of the bride.

' DESDEMONA’S' BED.

 

The position of the bed, (which for all
the purposes of the scene would be al-
tered with advantage to the side of the
stage,) by which Othello is constrained ii
turn his back to the audience while ad-
dressing Desdcmona if she remains ill it,
has, we suppose, induced Signor Salvilli
to make her come from the alcove and
speak the greater part of the dialogue
standing in front of it; an alteration of
the stage tradition which hurts the effect-
of the scene and is untrue to the in-
tention of Shakespeare, who makes
Othello tell his wife that she is on her
deathbed, and in reply to his furious
command, “Peace, be still,” receives
the anSWer, “I will; what is the mat,
ter?” with which the terrified woman
cowers down upon her.pillow like a poor
frightened child. ,Indeed, the whole
scene loses its most pitiful element by al-
lowin'g Desdeinona to confront Othello
standing, instead of-uttering her piteous
pleadings for mercy in the helpless pros-
tration of her half-recumbent position;
although we have no doubt that a most
powerful effect might be produced by
any actress equal to the situation who
should herself rush from the bed to
Othello’s feet as she utters the piercing
denial: “No, no, no; send for the man
and ask him.”

RUSSIAN TEA.

_ If we are to judge by the official
Gazette of Turkestan, the Chinese have as
little respect-for the Treaty of Iiuldja
made with Russia as they would appear
to have for that of Tientsin concluded
with France. In reply to representa-
tions that they are committing a clear
infraction of the treaty by interference
with the Russian frontier trade, they
have now‘ordered all Russian Muscul-
man merchants to quit the Kuldja fron-
tier towns, except Kasligar, on a fort-
night’s notice. There restrictions are
evidently directed against the Muscul-
man subjects of the Czar who deco Id
Chinese allegiance for. that of Russia. '
A short time ago the Russian Minister of
Finance placed rather“ heavy duties on
Chinese teas coming across this frontier,
but was obliged to abandon them in the
end, because the Chinese "refused to do
any business at all, and the Russian
merchants complained bitterly of the
~damage occasiond to their trade; The
tea-plant has lately been introduced near
Soukgoum Kaleb, on the Black Sea, and
the Russians are confident, is seems that
they will soon, be able to do without
Chinese or Indian" teas. They are
naturally irritated at the thought that
after all their efforts at direct importa-
tion by the vessels of the Volunteer
Fleet London can still supply Russia
‘ with tea more quickly and cheaply than
' can the Rubsian merchants, though next-
door neighbors to the Flowery Land.

and a man of rare culture, though a line
of Cicero or Herddotus would have put

such culturetoa most trying test. As .
an instance of the enigmac that face the |

one of the chief boasts of slavery, "j that,

the commonest . made in behalf of social
Southern superiority. That very promio
bent feature of Southern life, “Southern
pride,” is a lick moremodern institu-

be. If it were confined to the really old
colonial families who are still prominent
it would be perfectly intelligible and
perfectly admissible, and the hunting up
of imaginary cavaliers would be quite
superfluous,- but it is not. A North
Caroliuian cducatpd and well-to-do slave-

no way bcliindlland with this indescri-'

South Carolina, on the other hand,
which was only semi-English in origin,
rapidly developed asmall - and well-to-do

as well as mere planting interests. In"

Virginia a majority, I should say, of
those families who claim and receive the
appellation of “good," who hug to them-
selves the magic but elastic title of F. F.
V., would ilot care to go back much be-
yond the Revolutionary War in the work
of investigation, and would shrink from
the horny hands of the honest settler
whom they would in all probability find,

ALI. 32.11324 ‘ 'l)'li N31021:}.

 

The old saying that nothing is wasted
or lost in nature is. true in regard to the
smoke from the furnace of Elk: lapids,
Mich. In this furnace are manufac-
tured fifty tons of charcoal per day.
There are tWenty-five charcoal pits, con-
structed of brick. Each pit is filled with
100 cords of hard wood and thcnfired.
The vast amount of smoke from these
pits, which was formerly lost in the air,
is now utilized. Works have been
erected to convert the smoke into chemi-
cals and acids.

These works are a curiosity. First
they have a circular tube, made of wood,
with pine slaves, sixteen feet in length,
bound together with heavy iron hoops.
This tube is placed directly over the pits
in a horizontal position, with an open-
ing from each pit into the tube. At the
end nearest the building there is a large
drum containing 'a rot-:u'y fan, propelled
by machinery, the power of which is gas.
That acts as a suction or draft for 'the
smoke, which is conveyed into fire stills
filled with copper pipe, two and one-half
inches in diameter. The boxes in which
the pipes are'situated are twenty feet
square, eight feet deep, made of heavy
pine and filled with cold water; they
are all connected by copper pipes; they
are connected with the main still: 100
feet in length, ten feet wide and eight
feet deep, filled with copper pipes. two
and one-half inches in diameter, in hori-
zontal position, surrounded by cold
water; from this conveyed to a purifier,
from which runs what is called pyro-
ligneous acid, which is as clear as amber,
with an unpleasant odor. .

From the acid is produced, first,
acetate of lime; second, alcohol; third,
tar; fourth, gas, which is consumed
under the boilers. . Each cord ofwo'od
contains 28,000 cubic feet of smoke; ‘52.,-
800,000 feet of smoke handled every

twenty-four hours, producing 12,000
_ pounds of acetate of lime, 200 gallons of

alcohol and twenty-five pounds of tar.
These products have a commercial value
in the manufacture ovaarious articles.
The smoke from 40,000 cords of wood
consumed per annum is thus made a
source of much profit, as the works are
automatic, and require no workmen to
run them. . " / ‘

he will also see, perhaps, some very black
patches surrounded by gray borders. 4
These latter are the “sun spots,” so
called for want of a better term, and
have occasioned much study and discus.
sion as to what they are and what pro-
duces them. By daily watching these
spots and noting their movement across

. the disk of the sun, his time of rotation

on his own axis is found to be between
twenty five and twenty-six and one-half
days. The variation in the time arises
frein the fact that the spots nearer the
equator of the sun have a more rapid
motion. This opens at once the inquiry
into how this can be done, and it is ans-
wered by describing the solar surface
and its physical characteristics. ' ‘ 3

The whole visible exterior of the sun is
supposed to be a luminous cloudyenvel-
ope, and it is constantly in a state‘of tur-
bulence. When this action is intensi-
fied‘at any one locality, the masses of
cloud are rent apart 'in such a way that
the lower ‘stratum is exposed to View—
this is supposed tof be the dark body of
the sun, or,.pe'rhaps, darker cloud sub-
stance than the'immcdiatc surface.

These movements are very often circu-
lar, and ”are termed cyclonic, and the rate
of speed sometimes seen to develop
among these claud masses exceeds a
thousand miles in a minute of time.

why any " person should keep a‘pet so
useless as is a crow, whiche'xhibite‘d
such a malicious disposition. ‘One trick
might be pardoned, ’ but this bird evi-
dcntlydelighted in mischief for its own:
sake. For. instance, it is :related of him

the cucumber patch and imitated ‘her in
picking ,thc'fr'uit. Receiving a sharp'
ml) for so doing, he rolled on his‘b’ack
and throw lip his clalvs i. his fighting
posture. She, supposing him dead,
went on with her work. ’ After sulking a
while‘ he flew off to ' the fence, and sat
there angrily muttering curses
v Soon after he revenged himself by re-
movilig the clothes-pins as fast as she
placed them on the line and letting the
clothes fall to the ground, all the while
uttering a harsh- scolding sound. The
old lady, by a sudden motion, caught
. and tied him to a stake. But when she
was gone he got the string loose, and
keeping clear of the clothes-1i lie, met us
on the way home very cross and surly,
but would not go near the house fora
long time. _

A lady of the village having spread
some clothes on the grass to bleach,
Dick deliberately smeared his feet in a
mud puddle and kept tracking all ove
the clothes until driven away. ‘

At another time he took great interest
in the building of' a boat, and frequently
watched the operation. When the paint-'
l'ng began, Dick was particularly-atten-
tive. The men having gone into. the
l shop, Dick deliberately walked back and
forth from stern to stern, filling the.
fresh paint with tracks, and then ut-'
‘ tered a bird “caw” to call the owner's

 

, attention to his mischief. Dodging a
stick hurled at him, he flew off in high
glee. *

Numerous thefts in the village were
, believed to lie at his door, yet he was so
adroit and cunning that no one seemed
disposed to harm him, and so he lived
on his mischief, until he disappeared
one day in late. Autumn, probably a vic-
filn to a Sportsman’s gun.

At the foot of the high mountain called
Tom Ball, in the northeast part of Al-
ford township, New York, has resided
for thirteen years Aaron Arnold and his
wife, a respectable couple, possessed of
some little property. Arnolcl came to
Alford from Troy, and located where he
now is. He was a sailor years ago, cir-
cumnavigating the globe in quest of
whales. He well understood all the
mysteries of sailors' life, and was skilled
as a ship carpenter. Having no children
and feeling lonely twelve years ago, he
conceived the idea of building asteam—
boat. Though not large in dimensions,
this was accomplished and the boat taken,
to the Hudson River, where it is now
usod'as a tug, towing barges up and
down the river. '

This feat so increased his passioufpr'
ship-building that eight years ago,
though twenty miles from tide water,
among the marble cliffs of Alford, in tho
door yard back of his residence he laid
the keel. This he soon removed to an.
old barn near by. In secret he worked,
but few of the neighbors knowing any-
thing about it, until this Spring, when
the boat'being finished except the masts,
he tore down the barn and revealed to
the astonished gaze of passers a well~
made two-masted schooner, thirty-five
feet long, ten wide and nine deep, and of
twenty-five tons burden. The boat was
correct in all her proportions and'bf
solid old oak. Hundreds visited it and
he obtained the sobriquet of the Modern
Noah. '

The strongest trucks and four team
horses were obtained to draw it to the

boat was taken 'to the roadside, when,
:owing to 'its great weight—some nine
tons—the iron axels of'the truck bent
and the teams could go no further. The
attempt was for the time abandoned,
and it began to be whispered that Noah’s
Ark would be left to decay, not on
Ararat, but at the foot of Tom Ball, as a '
monument to the sailor who was unwise
enough to Open a navy yard high and
dry , in Alford. However, in some mys-
terious manner the vessel caught fire
and was destroyed.

not know the difference between the

never been [izirtlalto proprietary medicines, as I
believe the majority of them to be nothing better
than lnelllods of obtaining money from people
whom sullcrlng makes ready to catch at any hope
of relief. They are mean cheats and delusions.
But your FAVORITE REMEDY I know by ha py

been a sufferer from gravel for years, and had re-
sorted to many eminent physicians for relief, but
no permanent good came of it. About three years
