"Of course I am I" 1 luokcd down complacently at tuv drc as of iiok crepo, dew-dropped over with clir)stal, and tho tr:i of pink azaleas that caught up iu fold hero aod there. A diamond bracelet encircled one round while arm, and a litiL crost blazed fitfully at my throat. 1 had never looked better, and I felt a port of girlish pride a my eye met the fairy reflection in the mirror. "Come, Gerald, mate hate! why you havn't begun to drs.t yet !' Wbere were my wifely instinct that I did not sec the haggard, drawn look, in his features the fevered light in his eye ? "I can't go to-night, Madeline I am not well enough." 4,i"otare uuvcr w. 11 enough' to oblige tr.c, Gerald. I am tired of being put of! Willi such excuses. He made no answer, but dropped hit bead in his hands, on the table before him. 'Oh I come, Gerald," I urged, petu lantly. "It U so awkward for uie to go alone alvcay !'' lie fthouk his head listlessly. I thought perhaps you would be wi! Hag to remain at home with me, Made! inc. "Men arc so selfish I said, plaintive ly ; "and I am all dressed. Claudia took half an hour for my hair. I dare say you'll be a great deal quieter without me that is, if you are determined not to o answer again. "Well, if you choose to bo sullen, I can't help it," I said, lightly, as I turned and went out of the room, adjusting my niver bonuet-holdcr. the tuberoses and heliotropes seeming to distil incenso at every motion. Was I heartless and cruel? Had I ceased to lovo my husband ? From the bottom of my heart I believe that I loved him as truly and tenderly as ever a wife d.d, but I had been so spoiled and petted all my brief, selfish life, that the better instincts were, so to speak, entombed alive. I went to the party, and had my fill of adulation and homage, as usual. The hours seemed to glide away, shod with roses aod winged with music and perfume: and it was not uutil wearied with daucing I sought a momentary refuge in the half lighted tea-room that I heard words wak ening me, as it were, from a dream. "Gerald Clen I" I could not well be mistaken in the name it was scarcely commonplace enough for that. They were talking two or three stout, business-like looking gentlemen in the hall without, and 1 could catch, now and then, a fugitive word or phrase. "Fine, enterprising young fellow" "great pity I" "totally ruined, so Bees and McMorken say!" reckless extrav agance of hi3 wife t" All these vague fragments I heard ; and then some one said : "And what is ho going to do now ?" "What can he do t Poor fellow ! I am sorry ; but ho should have calculated his income and his expenses better." . "Or his wife should. Dcuco take these women they are at the bottom of all a roan s troubles I And they laughed. Oh I how could they ? I had yet to learn how easy it is, in this world, to bear other peoplo's troubles I I roso hurriedly up, with tny heart beating tumultously benea'h the pink azaleas, and went back to the lighted cor ridors. , Albany Mooro was waiting to claim say hand for the, next redowa. "Are you ill, Mrs. tJlen ? How pale you look I" "I I am not very well. I wish you would have my carriage called, Mr. Moore." For I felt now that home was the place for me I Hurried by some unaccountable im pulse, I sprang out the moment the car riage wheels touched the curbstone, and rushed up to my husband's room. The door was locked, but t could see a light OREGON, SATURDAY, shining faintly under the threshold. I knocked wildly and nersistcutly. u Gerald 1 Gerald I for heaven's sako let mo in 1" Something fell on the marblo hearth stone within, making a nictalio clink, and my husband opened tho door a little way. I had never sceu him look so palo before, or so rigid, yet so determined. Who aro you 1" ho demanded, wild ly. "Why can not you leavo me in pcaco V "It's I, Gerald your Madclino your own little wife." And I cnught from his hand the pistol ho was striving to conceal in his brcast-ils mate lay on tho marble hearth, under tho mantel ond flung it out of tho window. " Gerald, would you havo left me T "I would havo escaped!" ho cried, still half delirious, to all appearances. " Debt disgrace tuicry- her reproach es I I would havo CKcnpcd them all ?

For had it not been my fuult f And through all the long weeks of fear that followed. I nursed him with unwaver ing caro and devotion. I had but ono thought, one desire-to redeem myself in his estimation; to provo to him that I wa Komcthing more and higher than the mere butterfly ol'fuhhbu I had hitherto showu uiyrli!

Where wero we now ? It wan a picturesque little coltago just out of tho cily, furnished very like a magnified baby-houc. Gerald sat in a cuihioncd cay chair on the piazza, just where he could glance through tho open window at me, working a batch of bin cuits, with my aleeves rolled up above tny elbows, and tho "golden-thread" hair neatly confined in a ilken net. " Wht au industrious fairy it is !" he said, smiling adly. " Well, you see I like it ! It's a great deal better than thojo sonatas on the ti piano; " Who would have ever thought you would make so notable a housekeeper?" I laughed gleefully I had all a child's delight iu being prated. " Are you nt going to Miss Delancy's crojut party ?" he pursued. " No what do I care for croquet par ties; I'ara going to fioUh your shirts, and you'll read aloud to me V " Madeline, I want you to onswer me one question." " What in it ?"

What makes those men who associato habitually with women superior to others? What makes that woman who is accustomed to and at case in the company of men superior to her sex in general ? Solely because she is in the habit of a free, graceful and contin ual conversation with the other sex. Wo men in this way lose their frivolity, their f.'culies awaken, their delicacies and pecu liarties unfold all their beauty nnd capti vation in the spirit of the intellectual ri valry. And the men lose their pedantio cr sullen manner. Tho coin of the un derstanding and tho heart is interchanged continually. The asperities are rubbed off; their better materials polished and brightened, and their richness, like fine gold, is wvocght into a finer workmanship by the. fingers of the women than it ever could.be by men. Tho iron aud.steel of our character are laid aside like the har ness' of a warrior in a time of peace and socu'rity. ' ; : ' DEMOCRAT. JUNE 20, 18G9. HIuIjV EXAMINING SOCIETY. Editor State IHyhti Democrat : I see in your paper of Juno &th, that at a meeting held at Lebanon, May 22 called a Tcmpcranco rally, those gentlemen who were engaged therein, havo honored me by making use of my name as a committeeman to aid and en courage public Tcmpcronce Societies. I wish to inform those gentleman that I must decline the honor of serving in that capacity. 1 have strong objections to the course heretofore taken by societies called Temperance, and I suppose that those gentlemen aro endeavoring to carry out the principles heretofore adopted. Now would say to thoso friends, and to all other persons thus engaged, that I have no objection toany and all laudablo means being UHcd to ameliorate the condition of our fallen race, and to set a good and wholcsomo influence before it, but why should wo select out one depravity of our fellow-men, and pass by other evils equally or mora to bo lamented r Why not aim to bo temperate in all things 1 And again, why is it Decenary for men possessing the christian religion to start up some other society to enable them to uo their influenco iu tho promotion of Tcmpcranco ? Aro they not able as church members to use as much influence a- when attached to some man-made in stitution, unauthorized by the scriptures? Can it bo possible that under the imme diate influence of liro. UUhop (so called) thero is so much intemperance (drunk coocm) as to call forth , more influence than he cati wield as a member of the so called christian church ? Docs i an 1 my other friends of said meeting near Lebanon witucss so much intemperance that it requires a united rally? And af ter they have uc 1 all f their united in fluence, do they intend calling upon the Legislature cf Oregon to help them to uno their combined influence. I would iuform my friends that, as it regards Syra cuse precinct, I do not witness any such intemperance as thoe geutictncn sec, and I have viited other precinct, and &s I seldom go into saloon, or any other drinking establishments, to spy out who are there drinking, I suppose that is the reason of my not sceicg the intem perance alluded to, and I would say to liro. Jfi hop that he can me more influ ence in attending to his own business than by visiting those places of resort. However, as I do not intend at this time to argue the unreasonableness of the measure proposed, I will suggest to my friends a better course for them to pursue. which is this to change the name of their society fornames, you koow.soriic times loe all their charms. So with this society. It has been called Temperance, Waihiugtoiiian, Tctotal, Abstinancc, and last of all, Gooi Templars. The name that I would propose probably may suit all lovers of ;ood society (viz.) Tue Self Examining Society; aod if it would not be thought too presuming on my part, I would ptoposc a constitution for said society as follows : Art. 1. This society shall be denom inated the Self Examining Society, and ahall be composed or members of both sexes, wIioho heads and hearts arc suscept ible of moral improvement. Art. 2. The object of this society will be to endeavor to see, feel and cor rect our own faults, and thus set a good example to others. Art. 3. All of the members of this society shall bo vested with full powers and privileges to attend to their own con cerns, and they shall consider it their duty to study to mind their own business, and Ut other people's business alone. Art. 4.

Art. 5. There shall be no public or private meeting of this society for the purposo of transacting business os a soci ety, or to hear lectures delivered before them ; but it shall be the duty of each member to meet himself alone every day and listen to the lecture cf his own con science. Art. C. Thero shall never bo any funds raised by this society by means of hired soliciting, or begging agents, nor by subscription donation or bequest, for the purposo of defraying the expenses of mis society, nor lor me purpose oi circu lating tracts, or almanacs, nor to pay any lawyer or minister for delivering lec tures to convince us how much easier it is to examine others than to examine our selves. Art. 7. All of tho members of this society shall pay duo regard to temper ance in catiug and drinking and in every thing elso, but they shall be their own judges as to what they shall eat, what they shall drink, and wherewithal they shall be clothed ; while all species of in temperance shall be left to tho reproach which they deserve, without the benefit of clergy. Art. 8. Tho members of this society shall call things by their proper names, and not call for vinegar when they mean rum ; uor cider or beer when they mean French brandy or gin, delivered at tho back door, for the benefit of tcmpcranco customers. ART. 9. The members of this society shall deal truly, openly and honorably, and all rtho do otherwise shall bo deliv ered over to the fellowship and confidence of religious and political swindlers and no member shall make preparations of whisky from wine, or Plantation Bitters. Art. 10. The members ot this socie ty shall be allowed to drink coffee or tea, cold water or hot, bdttermilk or lemon ade, Shew or smoke tobacco, provided it be not offensive to the company they are in. , - ; ' Art. 11. This society shall remain separate and distinct from all other socie ties, nor act as auxiliary toany. Each member 6hall enjoy full liberty of con. science to serve God in his own way, ao. NO. 45. cording to his own understanding of the Bible he shall examino his own heart and correct his own vices. Art. 12. Anv rjcrson mav bo admit. ted to inembcrshiD. of cood morn! char. acter whether poor or rich, who is honest, intelligent and industrious, even members of religious societies, who i'ecl and be lieve that they can wield more influence for good in the Self Examining Society than where thev bclonir. mav be admitted on trial for six months, aod if they provo unuiui, aim examine inemscives oiuzcnt- l a - ... . iy, shall oo admitted to full membership. Art. 13. If anvthinir more ia needed to fully enable members to examine thctn. selves thoroughly, it shall be nroner and rt'yht for them to to act for the good of tocxeiy. AH of which is respectfully submitted. JOHN T. CROOK3. Correspondent of Cincinnati fomincrcial. DEATH OP JOIIX .11 OUG IX. WIICRE AND HOW IT OCCURRED. Greenville, Tenn., March 19, 18C0. As you leave the depot, and walk down toward the main portion of Greenville, immediately to your left, after you have walked some two hundred yards, there is a large red brick houc, standing upon a little riso of ground, back some thirty yards from the street. The house is sur rounded on all sides by trees and shrub bery, which makes it one of tho meet picturesque residences in the place. In front of this houe, and reaching the side walk, there is about half an acre in grapevines, and here and there among them are apple trees. This is called a garden, and near the center of this gar den, John Morgan, tho famous rebel raider, was killed. At the time, he and a portion of his command occupied the town, and he was asleep in the houfc, which 1 have just described. Morgan had been in town several days, but wax intending to leave the next day, as the Fcdcralt were advancing in force. It was a dark, rainy night in October, when a spy silently stole out of Green ville, and rode with all speed a distance of ten miles, where the Federal were en camped. He communicated to them that John Morgan was in Greenville, with only a few of Lis mco, and with diligence he might be caught. Out into the darkness two hundred Federal cavalrymen rode, and a little be fore day they arrived at the edge of the town. They surrounded the place, and dashed in from all points of the compass at once, with a terrible yell, that scot ter ror to the hearts of a'.l that heard it. The rebels were taken completely by surprise, and made but feeble resistance. Morgan was t-uddcnly awakened by the tumult, and for a moment seemed bewildered. He knew not which way to fly. "Go to the garden ! hide in the buhcs and vines ! luick I quick !" cried some of the negro scrvaots. Morgan stood for a moment as if unde termined what to do and then rushed out at the front door into the garden. He was barefooted, bareheaded, and bad on nothing but his shirt and drawers, which were white and easily seen in thedUtance, but it happened that nono of the soldiers saw him. There was one person who did, however, and that person was a young lady, who living nearby, and being awak ened by the firing and shoutiog, looked out and saw Morgan run in among the shrubbery in the garden. She ran down the staeet to where three or four Federal soldiers were, and said to them "John Morgan's hid in the garden, shoot him !" The soldiers saw a white object, and all of them but one fired, but they only wounded and did not kill him. Morgan remained perfectly motionless, as to have moved wa as certain death as to remain still. The soldier who had not fired now advanced nearer, took deliberate aim and fired. The ball pierced the body of John Morgan, and in a few hours he was no more. The garden was surrounded by a pal ing fence. Three or four of the palings were removed to drag his body out, and their places arc now supplied by others. But the spot is marked by a small piece of plank, which is nailed oo at the top of tho fence, and all who choose cau see the spot where he fell, and the place where ho was dragged out. The young lady who betrayed him still lives near Greenville, and when Mor gan was laid out she placed some flowers in his coffin, and with her own hands wiped tho clots of gore from his face At the timo there was a lady here whoso husband had been killed in the rebel array. Having considerable gift of gab", she went North and represented her self as tho woman who had betrayed John Morgan, and gave "lec:urcs." Of course everybody turned out to see the woman who had been so instrumental in ending the Career of the famous raid er, and the result was, she became rich and quite a famous lecturcss.
