I4 hav tatcnartfcnlar pams to have him in formed of the dissolution of my marriage coutract, and yet he doesn't propose. Very attentive and love-like to-night, but not a word of the future. If is establish ment is princely, but if I cannot . be mis tress of that, why, then I should prefer Herbert 'very ambitious young man,' as father said this morning, 'If you haven't destroyed it with your coldness.' Oh, pshaw ! men are not so easily killed. Let nieseeI am not nineteen, -end, ac cording to their owu statements, I have consigned at least a dozen lives to wretch edness, and u half a dozcu of them are happily married, and the remainder en gaged. I am sorry that I have ollended Ileibert. He may not be so easy to re new; and the heartless beauty continued to discuss the situation untill sleep closed her eyes. ."Ah, Marie," said the young lady's father, one evening at dinner, some few months after the above incidents, "your discarded lover has had a very neat iittle present made him. Y u have heard him sjeak about that eccentric uncle of his in Lincoln; well, the old fellow lias come down handsomely- a cool two hundred thousand that's all Marie. Better coax him back, if you can.'' "I'll try it," laughed Marie, hysteri cal! vV "But are you quite sure of this father?" "I'crhaps so- - tjc jias jCerj reeeivinc; the congratulations. for the last two days Ilaituji.ii says he don't appear very much elated. Though I know , the reason. .Money without Marie don't appear like much to a luve sick man;" and -Mr. Ge nore shook his fat sides, and' chuckled with satisfaetioo at the idea of his daugh ter's brilliant future.- ; The'neif morning, Mr. Maltra vers re ceived a duinily-perfuuied little note, running thus Dear Herbert Father has just informed me of your good fortune. Do come and receive the congratulutiuns of your Marie. But Herbert was in no hurry. Once more in a crowded drawing room with its elegantly dics-ed ladies and gen tlfemen, music, flowers. 'and the gorgeous ly decked dancing hall, while the ravish ing waltzes and fascinating rcdowas chased each other in quick succession. ."Who is that beautiful fairj.like crea turevwith .Mr.- M ultra vers, Miss Genore?" inquired1 a gentleman with-wtiouf Marie was promenading. She turned a little to ee Herbert,, bis facelit up with a smile of enjoyment and appreciation, conversing? in Ipw earnest tones with his companion ; as sweet and beautiful as Marie's partner had describ ed her. iA plcaSant bow. with a caol "Good evening, Miss Genore," was all the rec ognition Marie received. "Will you allow me t lie pleasure of a promenade, Miss Gcndre ?" 'politely in quired Herbert. - " j -.U .'i-i-r With a little flush of gratified pride Marie accepted his arm, and orice more the sweet little baud came in loving con tract with bis coat sleeve, while on the taper finger bis diamond sciutiliated and sparkled.'

' Haveyou not a kind word for your own 'Marie !" "f "Come into the conservatory, Miss Genore, I have aometbing to show you." And Herbert, with Marie clinging lov ingly to his arm, walked into the apart ment, where roses, heliotropes and ge raniums, mingling with the perfume of costly exotics, made the air. heavy with their fragrance. ' The same elegant little woman, Her bert's compnnion, whom Marie minutely criticised, stood in one corner' of the room, the principal attraction of an ad miring group. " "Lucy, will you excuse yourself for- a moment? I have a friend to whom I wish to introduce you," asked Herbert of the lady in question, while a smile of aduiiiatiuu and gratified pride lit up his handsome lace. Marie still clasped his ami loviugly. "Lucy, you have often heard me speak of Miss Geuore. This is the lady," con tinued he, quietly withdrawing his arm. "And this little woman," affectionately drawing her to his hide, "is iny wife 3Irs. Maltravers. Under the peculiar cir cumstances, I think .it is no more than justice to claim the symbol of our engage ment." ... . , ' - Marie slowly and like one in a dream withdrew the heavy ring: While Lucy, with an expression of pity on her sweet face, quietly resumed her place among her friends. A Frantic Spirit Plays Trlcke On aVlr ;. gluia Reverend. Sunlight and Health. The world has just found out that the sun is not only the great source of light and heat, aud the giver ot life to all vegetable creation, but also of health to man himself. Disease and pestilence are created and nurtured io the dark: ess of forests, in the shade of the trees which keep the cottage damp and dark, in the interior bed rooms, where its glorious heulth-beariug beams never reach. As potatoes throw out their long, spind ling, sickly thoots in the shaded depths of the cellar, so children grow rickety, and scrofulous, and consumptive ; as fruits and vegetables mold and rot in dark, shut up in bins and closets, so man de cays, grows rheumatic,- and dyspeptic, cadaverous, shut up in dingy counting rooms, in cellar work shops aud lodging rooms. The green slimy pool n which but a feeble sun shines, in its insalubrious ob scurity develops intermittent and bilious fevers ; and the mo.-s embowered cottage, whose umbrageous dress haugs over it so picturesqueh', glistening like the embrac ing folds of a crushing green serpent, or. the foul-breathed, destructive anaconda, is the chosen home of t3,,hus, and the more relentless consumption. The sun is health, and disease flies be fore its presence. Opeu wide your port als for its beuefieicut presence. -Bring your sick into the influence of its beams. Let its rays enter every sick loom. Away with your curtains and blinds, and let the king of glory enter with healing on his wings. The suueure is worih all the water cures, and earth cures, and all of the "pcthics" uuited. How Bain is Formed. To under star d the philosophy of this phenomenon, essential to the very existence of plants and animals, a lew facts, derived lrom observation and a long train of experi ments, must ho remembered. Were the atmosphere eveiywhere, at all times, at a uniform t'iujratuie, We should never have rain, hail, or snow. The water absorbed by it in evaporation from the sea and from the earth's sur face would descend in au utiperceptille vapor, or cease to be absorbed by the air when it was onee fully saturated. The absorbing power t the atmosphere, and consequently its capability to retain hu midity, is proportioiiably greater in cold than warm air.

There lives ia the suburbs of Buchanan a worthy man, the Rev. Gv C Thrasher, whose house has been fornix weeks the theatre of many curious and ghostly ex ploits. It (whatever it may be) com menced operations by extracting 1 from the ' reverend ' gentleman's corn crib, through a padlock door, a sack of corn, and pouring it ' out some twenty paces from the crib, and this ' circumstance proves that the spirit must at least be white,' for one bearing the hue of the "XYth Amendment" could never have resisted the temptation of toting it to bis haunts. Then, night after night it came, performed its frantic tricks, opened win dows barred in the inside, doors locked and guarded, scattered furniture and the utensils of the culinary department hither and thither, an.d went away unperceived despite the fact that each night the house was guarded inside and around by vigi lant neighbors, armed to the teeth aud eager to capture or detect jhe bold . hob goblin who had, time and again, passed through their ranks unseeh. . ; One evening last week, ' whilst Mr. Thrasher was writing in his study, about 3 oclock, there was a bold knock on the door, several times repeated, but on Mr. Thrasher's seizing a pistol and rushing to the door, lo ! nothing was there, and noth:ng was to be eeii in the vicinity, al though the minutest search was made; and this knocking occurs frequently, and has been attested by gentlemen of un doubted veracity,; v 5. . , r. ,? ; Three evenings ago Mr. Thraser went over to Dr. Wood's residence, and whilst there heard his little children, whom he had left at borne, ringing a bell, and at the same time heard a violent knocking at the door, and on approaching, being armed with, a shot-gun, and accompanied by Dr. Wood, distinctly heard his little son enquire of the unwelcome . visitor what i. -wanted- A reply was given but in an undistinguishable mumble, resem bling, as Dr. Wood describes it, a confu sion of voices from the ground. Both gentlemen affirm that not the least truce of any person or thing was visible, al though every nook and corner of the premises wete carefully examined ; nor could any person in the house produce the sounds they heard, no one being at at home at the time except his three iit tie children, the eldest a brave lntle boy ot twelve summers, who, with pintol iu hand, was iiitm locuti'ng the hobgoblin who' had puzzled the grayest heads in . Buchanan . Some two weeks ago Mr. Thrasher was walchiug iu his yard, armed with a doub-le-barieled shot gun, when, as he fcuys, something like a thin shadow, bearing re semblauce to a human form, passed by him, but swiftly as the wind, and instant ly disappeared. This is all he has seen, and strange enough, not a track or truce has ever been left behind, ah hough 'night after nijrht, in the moonshine aud dark ness, in calm and in storm,! the mysteri ous stranger has come, played hisenriom pranks, the halt'of which I have not told, and went whisre ? One would naturally ask if a person might conceal himself lor the purpose of playing a joke upon' the reverend gentleman ; but I answer there is no post-ibility. oi this. Every nook has been examined time and tiain by many persons, and there cannot pbssibly beany subterranean retttat lor flesh and blood in the vicinity. The surrounding grounds are plain and clear, aud it seems impos sible that any person could pass from the house unperceived, even iu partial dark ues. . . i This is ru hoax I mean this, state ment aud if yuu doubt it,! I would re for ynu to the most respectable gentlemen of Buchanan tuid its vicinity, and to the Reverend Mr. Thrasher himself, who is a gentleman ol high standing, aud a minis ter of the Baptist Church.

' These two bushels were sown in. the same field and with the same conditions as seven bushel of machine thre. hed seed. They were found to yield one-third more per bushel than the ma chine threshed. There is a very general opinion that machine threshed wheat is somewhat injured fbrsecd.
