A TltCE T.VLE OF TEN YEARS AGO, " Thank fate I I 8haJl never bo prey of a fortune huutor." As Sally Bcauclere utterod the vrords she llirew herself back. upon the Hofa, and tossed her handfiomo head witli a light laugh. ' "Your fortune is Your face." reioincd her companion, as he gazed admiring ly on her fine features.' Sally opened her largo e-ey in astonishment. "A compliment from vou. Tom !" she exclaimed, The gentleman colored. know I am not much givc to pretty speeches, but 3-ou Jcnow. Kally. that I rnimiro you all the same." " fi To tell the truth, Tom Middleton had for a long timo loved Miss Bcau- clero, itli all tho strength of an car nest arid constant nature ; but he was very iliilideut; he had shrank from making known his attachment, fearing Sally's ridicule, though had he been more conhdent of himself he might havo read long ago aBccret that Sally's eyes took little pains to conceal, liut Tom never imasrined how desirable a fellow ho was in himself, and knowing ho lmd no great fortune to bestow, ho did not venture to offer his hand to the daughter of Senator Beauclere, and ii. . i i ii me reigning ueiio oi uie , city, wuiy was one of a lariro family, it i tr-irl and xortionless, but her lothcr'd jKJsi tion and her own beuf.ty made Tom imagine ner to do far removed from him. .Now, he only looked hurt when she thus playful! sneered at his mall conipli-aent, and turning away to the wiiiiiow, thd not catch the tender look j that stole over Sally's handsome feat ures. "Weil, whatLvthe weather?" he a-sked, after a momentraJt he still stood at gazing oui imo me nignu, . It is a beautiful moonlight, and 1 think I had better L'o." Go! Oh, Tom! Why, this is the last time I fcliall sec you for ever so Ion-." "And will vou care?" he asked, as he came a-ain to her side. Sally blushed. "Of course I shall care, lorn. "No, Sally, to-morrow you are goin rr to asmnirton. lou wiii.uo a ww w w m belle there, as you are evfcrj wbere, and you will noon forget me. . "No, indeed, Tom!" she replied, ear- nestlv. "Amonir all those Htnuie faces and eo)le I thin't care anything about, I shall lonj; to eo my old friends." ""ButTiot rue. Ton won't tare much whether I am among the number or not 'Tea, I shall." Torn was a fool where women were concerned, or he would have known what those words in that soft tone meant. As ..it was, a., wild hope did spring up in his heart, but when he looked again at that beautiful woman it died away. "I am not brilliant er.ough for her," he thought ; but he plucked up KufHcit-nt courage to put out his hand and take pneof hers. Tou arc very kind, Hally," he said, "I shall come on to Wanliington, by and by, and then I shall know how sincero your words are." ; .Sally's cheek burnt ; but at that mo ment tho door opened. iTom dropped her hand, as one of the numerous young sisters came in, and the golden opjior tunity passed away, for thev were not together again for that evening. On that very same night, nearly a thousand miles awav, two voung uqu- uemen were speajung oi vm same young lady. They vc.ro travelers, who had accidentally met on board a steam er on Lake Erie. They wero total eah other's names, but had fallen into A chat as they fctroljed. on deck, under the rays of the full moon. "I never was so far from land before in my life," said the elder of the two, a fine looking man of perhaps thirty-five. Indeed J exclaimed his compan- ion, a nanasome. city-orou looKins: gentlemen. M3lay I ask where you are from, that your sea experience has been so limited ?" "From' the interior of North . Caro lina?" "Ah 1" cried tho stranger, and his cold features lit up into sudden inter est. 'Then perhaps you know the Beaucleres ? "Very well, indeed, they aro old friends of mine." "And Miss Beauclere ; you know her?" . - "Certainly." "I hear she is very handsome." "Tes : do you know her ?", No, I have merely heard of her ; but I expect to meet her in Washing- ton tnis wmior. She is the oldest daughter, is she not?" "Yes." . . "And is Senator Beauclere a man of wealth?" - "Yes ; that is, he has a very fine es tate " ' " " ..'.V TSTiss Sallv is the daucrhter of the first marriage, is she not ?', ! Yes, and' a noble girl. - Why, sue tl - Tvn'lli'nn in Tlprsfilf is " worm nan -a minion m uerstm alone," exclaimed the North Carolinian, Gnthusiasticallv.; His companion started, a little at the word, but changed the" conversation to other subjects', and before long the two rrflnilcn-Gn'vr&rted for the nirrht.1 still inlornorahce' of', each other's names Theyt did not meet again, but in the morning exchanged' merely a distant bow as tney left tne boat in opposite directions, - . ; ; ' The ' weeks j passed on, : and Sally Beauclere - was established with her parents at Willard's Hotel in Washing ton; ' ; As Middleton had predicted, her beauty and talents drew around her a circle of admirers, and before long ehe was established as bno of tho reigning WUtU Ul W UMUIIlglOU. 1 - ; The admiration and adulation which eho received, Sally found more intoxi cating and delightful than she had im agined.' It was very pleasant 'to' bo tho beauty of every ball-room, and con stantly surrounded by acirclo of ador ers., Hi idea of returning to tho humdrum lifo of home was not always pleaHant to her, and she somethnos felt half inclined to think .seriously of acceiting somo of tho brilliant offers that wero inado to her. She. had;bcen a good deal put out, too, witli Tom, for not speaking before she cam away. Sometimes she was half inclined to doubt his love for her, and although his earnest eyes haunted her with their wistful look of afftctjon, sh had more than one serious thought of trying to banish his rcmcmbranco and marry, as many others aroundher did, formoney rather than for love. Most prominent among her sworn admirers was Mr. Charlton Murrav, of New York. Handsome, distinguished looking and reputed to bo of great wealth, ho seemed to bo a match not to bo despised. Siuco the moment of his first introduction to Solly, ho had devoted himsielf to her mont persist ently. Every day a boquet of fresh flowers come to her room with compli ments ; every morning ho hung over ner chair ; every evening he was ready to attend her at tho balls and recep tions. - Sally, to tell tho truth, wa very well pleased with his admiration he understood so well how to play the agreeable, he paid her such pretty compliments, ho was so handsomo ana thorough-bred ! Ho hod ahfitdymade his proosai in lorm, ana fcauy was listening to his earnest pleading, as they sat half hidden from observation in one of the deep windows of tho ho tel parlor. "Pray, Mikh Sally, think favorably of my suit. My hopes of happiness, niv future life, depend uion vour re ply." Tho words were earnest, the . tone impassioned. Sally's cheek burnt, as she hesitated for reply. : "I liaveknown vou for so short a time," she faltered. ."What is that? . You have known me for five weeks, and during that during timo have seen xno more frequently than vou would under different circum stances in a whole year. I liaveknown vou long enough to love you madly, distractedly love you ! And vou have known me long enough to bid me at leant horn." She did not reply, and he font! to- wanls her, taking her hand in his eager ness. "Sally, my dearest Sally." Ilia wonls and actions recalled her to her ignition and sht drew back, "You may forget where you are, Mr. Murrav !" At this moment she caught sight of a gentleman who was talking with her father "There is an old friend of mine. I must go and speak to him." And she sprang up without any reply to her impassioned suitor. Murray looked after her with a smile of triumph. He had little doubt of his ultimate success. "Mr. Trumbull, how do you do?" cried Sallv, as she came forward. "Ah, Miss Sally, I am glad to see you again," exclaimed the gentleman. The dissipation of Washington has not spoiled you. I see you are more blooming than evei ." , : . Sally laughed and blushed. K "Come, now, pa, don't you bore Mr. Trumbull "with politics, but leavo him jto me for a while, to tell me how every one is at homo. , Senator Beauclere, after a few more words, turned away, and Sally and her old friend sat down sido by side. Mr. Trumbull had married one of her schoolmates, and sho regarded him al most as a brother. "Well, MiMs Sally, tell mo about your beaux. Whose heart have you broken last?" ' Involuntarily Sally glanced towards Murray, who stood in tho window re cardincr her with icalous eves. "JNobody s" sho replied lurhtly : but Mr. Trumbull's look followed hers. wny, wno is mat xeiiow mat is watching you so earnestly ?" he ex claimed with a stait. J' M m9 mm mm. W WW M 3ir. Murray, of iNew xork, if 30U mean tho young gentleman pa the win dow." "It is the very man I saw last fall and spoko to of you," said Mr. Trum bull. "Has he been makim? love to you?" ; "What did he say about me? ' asked bally, ignonng his last words. 10 did not sav mucn : he asked a great many questions about you. But, say, has he proposed to you ? "jevor minawnemcr tie nasor not, but tell me what he said," urged Sally, eagerly. . ..- .. "Ho asked if your father was rich, for ono thing. , ; "And what did you say?" "I said yes." f ; f "And what else? Tell mo all about it," sho cried imperiously. : Mr. Trumbull laughed. "I told him you were worth half a million of dollars," ho said. ; , ' ;; Sally's brow contracted and her eyes flashed.' You did ! Why, Mr. Trum bull, did you say that V "I meant you. are such a fine girl you aro worth it ; and; really, Miss bally, 1 minK it too low an estimate, lough to have' said two millions." i : Sally laughed. "Oh. that is funny And do you suppose he believed it ?" "Certainly. ' And so ho has ' been courting you ?" a Mr. Trumbull .saidj shrewdly. . , . . .. "Perhaps so ; but aro you sure he is me same man f "I think he is ; but a question "will soon set that at rest. ; . Sally started in her impulsive, jqa ner : "Come, I will' introduce yaa and then I shall know tho truth of this extraordinary story." Mr. , Trumbull would havo remon strated, butsho was half across the room beforo ho could interfere. Mur ray started forward with pleasure as he saw her approaching him. "He is an old friend of miWr who thinks ho has seen you before :" she said: "Mr. Trumbull. Mr. Murrav." Tho gentlemen shook hands, and then Mr. Trumbull said: "I think we met on board a boat on LaVo Erie, last fall." '-Yes replied Murray, with a faint uusn ; "i remember it perfectly." n 1.. " 1 iw wurus were exenancrea ana men iiurray waijced away. V." Aro you croinfif to marry him. Mis Sallv V ankfid Mr Tr,itr,T,7t!1 ' . "No, indeed." "Is he rich?" .-'v "Ho is said to be wealthy." "Then, you suppose fortune will ha a matter of indifference to him?" "But what if his 13 as mythical as mine?" "You must find that out." "No, I do not care to know now" said Sally "Let us talk of something else." "Yes, I thought you were going to ank after your old friends. Have you forgot all about them in these gaieties?" "Oh, no!" And Sally put query af ter query about her home friends, un til at last Mr. Trumbull said : But you do not ask after Tom Middleton, and yet you might, for he. cares more for you than all tho rest of .them put together." , tC' "Oh, that's nonseriseV'-But how ' is her "He will tell you himself." "Tom here?" exclaimed Sally, her lute uguuug up wjiu ueiigm. "Yes, indeed, we camo on together." "And why hasn't he come to speak tome?" and the pretty face clouded again. "He says he did not dare, before all these people, but if you will tro to your pariur x wiu sena mm mere. Sally started up at once, and Mr. Trumbull looked after her with a smile. He liad been hoping for this match for a long time, and now, as he went out to find Tom, he whispered to him: "Sjeak to her to-night, man. I am Mure she loves you." Tom scarcely knew whether he was on his head or his heels as he made his A. .

He only Knew that Sally came to meet him with a bright, blushing face, and the next thing he was certain of she was clasped in his arms.

From Lecky's llittory of European Mcrals.) ROMAN WIVES. The legal position of the Boman wife was, for a long period, extremely low. The 1 toman family was constitu ted on the principle of the absolute authority of its head, who had the power of life and death both over his wife and over his children, and who could repudiate the former at will. Neither the custom of gifts to the fath er of the bride, nor the custom of dow ries, appears to have existed in the earhent period of Horn an history, but the father disposed absolutely of the ; hand of his' daughter, and sometimes possessed the power of breaking oil marriages that had actually been con tracted; In the forms of marriage, however, which were usual in the ear lier periods of Home, the absolute power passed into the hands of the ; husband, and he had the right in some cases, of putting her to death. Law and public oiinion continued in 'mak ing matrimonial purity more strict. For five hundred and twenty years, it was said there was no such thing as a divorce in Home, and, even after this example, for many years the marriage " tie was regarded as absolutely indissolu ble. Manners were so severe that a Senator was censured for indecency I because he had kissed his wife in pres- ; ence of their daughter. It was con sidered in a high degree disgraceful " for a Roman mother to delegate to a. nurse the duty of suckling her child. Sumptuary laws regulated, with the most minute severity, all the detail of . domestic economy.' The courtesan class, though probably numerous, and certainly uncontrolled, were regarded with much contempt. Tho disgrace of publicly professing themselves mem bers of it was believed to be a suffi cient punishment; and an old law, -which was probably intended to teach in symbol the duties of married life,' enjoined that no such person should touch the altar of Juno. It was relat ed of a certain icilile, that he failed to obtain redress for an assault which had been made upon him, because it had occurred in a house of ill fame, in which it was disgraceful for a Roman magistrate to be found. The sanctity of female purity was believed to be at tested by all nature. The most savage female became tame before a virgin. When a woman walked naked round a field, caterpillars and loathsome insects fell dead before her. It was said that drowned men floated on their backs," and drowned women on their faces; and this, in the opinion of Roman nat- - uralists, was due to the superior purity, of the latter. . --..-;-v , .y. It was remarked by Aristotle, that the superiority of the Greeks to tho barbarians, was shown, among other things, in fact that the Greeks did not, like other nations, regard their wives as slaves, but treated them as help mates and companions. A Roman writer has appealed, on the whole with greater justice to tho treatment of wives by his fellow-countrymen, as a proof of the superiority of Roman to Greek civilization. He has observed . that, while the Greeks kept their wives in a special quarter in the interior of their houses, and never permitted them to sit at banquets, except with their relatives, no Roman ever hesita ted to lead hi3 wife with him to the feast, or to place the mother of the family at the head of his table. Whether, in the period when .wives were completely subject to the rule of their husbands, much domestic oppres sion occurred, it is now impossible to say. A temple dedicated to a goddess named vinplace, whose mission it was to appease husbands, was worshiped by Roman women on the Palatine, and a strange and improbable, if not in credible story, is related by Iivy, of the discovery, during the Republic, of a vast conspiracy of Roman wives to Eoison their husbands.' On the whole,, oweverj it is probable that the Roman matron was, from the earliest period a name of honor; that the beautiful fentence of a jurisconsult of tho em pire, who denned marriage as a life lonflr fellowship of all divine and hu-. man rights, expretvsed most faithfully the feelings of tha people, and that female virtue shone in every, age con spicuously in Roman biographies. ; From Ocean to Ocilin.
