The Barrister’s Bride. j
The Reverend John Derby, one of the
most pious and learned ministers of the
English church, died' 111 1812. sincerely
regretted not only by the friends who
had known him intimately' 1n private
iife. but also by those who had listened
tohis promhing. His family consisted
7 of an only daughter named Caroline.
Just before his death be determined to
leave her to the guardianship of ~‘tho
only man he sincerely loved, a former
pupil whom he only thought of as Col.
V George, but who had since become
Lord Wilton. ,
At that time Lord Wilton was with
his regiment in I Spain. At Victoria .he
heard of the death of the worthy
John Derby, who by his last will had
left him a pretty child to protect. award
to educate. At such a distance he could
only, after accepting the legacy, write
to his sister. Mrs. Fans, and beg her to
receive the orphan at her home at Bront-
i'ord until his return. 7 ,
A short tints after. being wounded at
the battle of Victoria, he returned to
England. and hastened to receive in
person his old friend's legacy; He
expected to find under his sister's are a
child to bring up. a pupil to educate.
To his astonishment he found a young
lady. with. more than ordinary beauty
and intelligence; she was about seven-
teen, and even at that age was distin-
guished by a certain ardor and exalte-
tion of mind which gave a boldness and
originality to all her ideas, sentiments
and words.
To the eyes of Caroline the world was
a poem, aromauce. She lived in an im-
aginary and fairy-like universe, peopled
by the wand of those enchanters called
poets and novelists. The realities of
this daily life actually terrified her. and
it was with the greatest reluctance that
she returned from her imaginery'ram-
blcs through space. She was so easily
startled by the faintest sound. so quickly
\Ilouchcd by a single word. and so
‘intensely excited by the smallest adven-
ture. that her friends at Brontford gave
her the name of “Poetry" personified.
Lord Wilton was very much astou-
ished at the eccentricitics which he
daily discovered in Carolina's character,
and at first distrcssod and even alarmed;
but he was young. rather an original
himself. and he quickly became pus-
eionaicly attached to his beautiful ward.
On her side. Caroline was much aston-
ished to find her guardian a man of _
thirty, clever. intelligent. and full of
his servant handed him a letter just
arrived from Scotland. The letter.
written by Caroline Banister, was the
first he had received from his ward in
tour fell {from his eye on the terrible
missive, (\which contained only those
. words: —-
"Gaonsm—I need you to save me
from death. and still worse—mfamy!
Come."
“Quick, quick! My carriage, horses!
Carolina's life and honor are in dan-

At last he arrived in Edinburgh. and
inquired. —

“I will save you i" said Wilton.
“My father hears you. May God aid

Lord Wilton ‘ settled himself in a

which from the wide-spread intercn it
excited. and the great diversity of opin-
ion with regard to it. threatened to
equal the other great scandal of the
age. the trial of Queen Caroline.
Time passed slowly; the months
'secm'edagcstothc misery of Caroline,
and the noble anger _of LOrd -Wilton-.
As had been foreseen, the opening
wanes of the trial were dramatic. and
Wilton, with the enthusiasm of dos-
pairing lovs. endeavored to combat the
onward march of- the relentless tragedy.

character of Caroline. I"Slanderl".

against the private life of his client.
He cried "Injustice!" They swore

and begged her to think seriously of the
enormous distance that separated the
pecr's mansion from theI. humble par-
announcement of his marl-rage to the
sonago. She appealed suwessrvcly to 5
her modesty. her virtue. hor _
and her gratitude. At last Mrs. Fanc's
eloquent indignation triumphed, and
Caroline. weeping bitterly, promised to
love andadmire her guns-dish no longer.
For complete security. Mrs. Fans .at
last induced her to promise to marryya
rich baronct who had made her an ofi'sr.
The sufferings induced by the cruel :
duty- thus imposed upon her finally
caused one of those fits of poetic fervor
. of which I havealready spoken. In her
fiery imagination despaires well as hope
hadits illusions and its dreams; in her
day dreams. instead of brooding over
her love for Lord Wilton. she thought
,ofthcimmensityoiscrrowandlcss.
She could not be happy. and sotook
delight in exaggerating the chances of
misery; as it was impossible to end the
love romance in the happiness of mu-
sings, in her aching'hcart she composed
the mouruful-poem of abnegation and
sea-ides.
Lord Wilton, who listened and looked
on in silence. was entirely ,ata lo. to,
account for the sudden change 111 the
girl. Her apparent anxiety to marry
this rich old man inspired inhimdis-
duiu and disgust and anger. Hocculd
not pardon her preference for Sir
Edward Banister. a newly created baro-
not. a rough sailor. with about as much
grace. manners and cultivation as ,a
pirate.

After the wedding the newly married

At a recent meeting of the French
Academy of Sciences at Paris. a plate
half filled with water. in which
were half a dozen insects about an
inch in length which shone like dia-
'. mouds. although the room was filled
with sunshine. was passed around
among the members. These insects
had been brought from Mexico, where
theyarc to be found in the forests.
Their scientific name is the pyrophore,
and. asnonc had ever been seen before in
Europe, they created quite a sensation.
The lightresemblcs that of aglowworm,
or a firefly, although as much more
brilliant and intense as an electric lamp
surpassosa wax taper in its power of
illumination. When the light begins to,
'fade. itcanbemade asbrilliantas before
byshaking the insect, or dipping it in
water. It is said that the Indians of 7
Mexico use them for a light at night. as
a few will sufloc to illuminate an entire
room. When they are walking at night.
they put one on each foot. so that they
canbe sure of theirway. and also that
they do not stop upon any venomous
. snake or reptile, with which the tropical
forests abound. The Mexican ladies
buy them of the Indians, and inclcsc
them in a hanspas'ent. bag, which they
wear in their hair or at the neck. The
effect is very beautiful, especially when
fiveral are worn, and, as the Indians
sell them for a few cents a dozen, they
are within the reach of every fair one.
They are fed on sugar-cane. and, if well
. taken care of, will live along time.

1!on BANANAS ans RAISED.
As everybody knows who has eaten a
banana. the luscious pulp is needles.
The plants are propagated from other
plants, so that the stock is not likely to
run out. The plant requires for vigor-
ous growth a deep. rich soil, abund-
antly watered. With these conditions
present, thereissaid tobcnoriskfora
crop in hot regions. where alone the
fruit is produced. Nine months after a
cutting has been planted, a purple bud
appears in-thc centre of thcunfoldiug
leaves that shoot out from the head of
the parent stem. The atom on which
the bud appears grows rapidly above
the main stalk.
Asthcbud increases in weight, the
stem bends downward by a graceful
curve, on the cxh-ernr‘ 'ty of which this
bad continues to grow still, the purple
blossoms falling 08, little shoots appear
asthe embryo fruit. Each fruithasa
yellow blossomat its outward extremity.
At the end of. three or four months the
fruitlras grownto maturity, endis
picked long enough before itis “ dead
ripe," to preserve it in remarkable con-
dition. Fromthc roots 'of the parent
7stalkothcrroots appear,whicharo

therefore. bears only one bunch or
crop as its life-work. V
Spaniards have a religious reverence
for the banana, believing it to bathe
fruit of which Adam partook. The
fruithas longbccn regardcdasex-
homely nutritious Itisrecommended
above all others for invalids who arc
unable to swallow harder food. An
estimate byfinmboldt claims that forty-
four thousand pounds of bananasoan
be produced on the soil that would be
required for one thousand pounds of
potatoes. and that firearea thatwould

one man, would produce enough ban-
