PARLS AND DIACKBIBfUES. .To!" saitl Dr. Darlii g, slowly; "no! I can't bclicvo the tUcnuo of my own senses 1" Aud as ho enun ciated thu words with imprctwivo tinctiveue8, ho looked solemnly at Harry Ulill'ord. Ho mmht have found a worse look- mir iiuhvitlual to lix his rt-''arilrt uion thau this youn M. D..who lial taken his tirbt lemioua in boties, hhlscIch, and Human unatotny, wilu tho tlierapeu- ties belongiug thereto in tho little ot lice ac-i tha the hall, ami was jut pre- Daring to hanir ui a bhiiu'le ot his own ; for Harry Cliilbrd was tall and shapely, with brown hair and a liu-jo auburn moutachu, aud two merry eyes that laughed Lke upringsof water m the sunshine. Dr. Darling took oil his spectacles, folded them, and deliberately put them iu their case, still without takiui; his eyes from his neophyte. Harry Clifford tsmilod, but ho looked a little embarra.Hr.ed. notwithstanding. "tilio would have you hi a minute, if you were to propose, pursued Dr. Darljng, dropping great hot splashes of sjabii'' wax over a sheet of - blot- ting paper, and btamping them with his moiiogruiu seal iu an aimless sort of way. ' ''Yes; but I tfll you, Sir, I don't want to propose." said Harry, starintr. at an intertwined D. J. D. as if it was one of the most interesting things in the world. "You don't want a pretty girl for a wiie'r" : "Xot that pretty girl .in particular, doctor." 'Nor tiny thousand dollars?" Ad ded the doctor, pronouncing the three momentous words in a iuuihut that made them sound very weighty in deed. "I would not object to the fifty thousand dollars in itself, Sir : but as merely an appendage to iliss Urad burv " "1 believe the boy is erar.y !" ejacu lated Dr. Darling. "Weil", well, as the Scotch proverb has it, A wtiful man in .uu bae his way,' And I will interfere no further. IJy the wav, Harry " "Yes, Sir :" "You arc going to the city this af ternoon ?" "That is my intention, Sir." "Stop at Depicrre's, will you. and leave Mrs. Darling's pearl brooch to be mended. 1 ouht to have dope it a week ao, but a man can't think of every thing.' "Certainly, doctor;" and Harry de posited the pearl brooch an old -fashioned ornament of massive gold, set with tiny heed pearls, in his waist coat pocket.' "llathcr a careless ' way to carry jewelry, young man !" haul Dr. Dar ling, elevating his eye-brows. -Oh, I never lo.o anything," Harry asserted, iu an oil hand sort of way. The morning sun w as casting bright, flickering threads of gold across the kitchen lioor ; the morning glories and 3ladicra vines, trained across the case ment, btirrcd softly in the mid-July a:r, and Ursula l ercy, airs. Danii;n" orphan niece, was busy "doing up' blackberries. Frej-h as a. roc, with hazel eves, softened to intense blackness at times by the shadow of their long lathes, and hiniling scarlet lips, hhe stood there her calico dress concealed by the house-wifely apron of while di- rainity that was tied round her waist, and her black curls tucked remorsely back of her ears looking demurely into the bubbling depths of the pre serving-kettle, like a beautiful parady on one of the witches in "Jlacbeth ; while on the whilely scoured pine ta ble beyond a glittering tin vessel was upheaped with the glittering jet-black fruit, each separate berry flashing like the eve of an Oriental belle. "UVsula !" The pretty young girl Btarled, very nearly dropping her skimmer into me preserving-kettle. "How you startled me, Harry !' Harry advanced into the kitchen, with an admiring look at the bright face. Hushed with a little blush and a eood deal of stove heat. 'You are .always at work, Ursula." "I have got to work, Harry, to earn -my own living." Ursula answered, with a slight uplifting of her exquisite black brows. "1 am not an heiress, like Miss Bradbury." "Confound Miss Uradoury !' our hero exclaimed. "I hear nothing but 'Miss liradburv' the whole time." "Sue is a very sweet young laay, Harry," said Ursula, in mild reproving ccents "I dare say; but whata nice lot ot blackberries you have here, to be sure, U rsula r . . . "Forty quarts," said Ursula, de- murelv. "Aunt Darling always en- joys them so much in the Winter." Harry put a honey-sweet, gioyuic of fruit in his mouth. "Blackberries are a beautiful fruit, Ursula." "Very," and Miss Percy skimmed diligently away at the uuDDiing cai dron. "Especially when yon are doing them uo." added the young M. D with rather a clumsy effort at compli ment. " Ursula did not answer Harry walked up to the range and took both her hands in his. "Harrv. don't! The berries will burn!" "Let them burn : who cares t "What do you want?" she asked, strurrrriiii" impotently to escape, and and Tauhin in spite of the gray e look she would Mn have assumed. ; "To see your eyes, Ursula. She lifted the soft hazel orbs to his face; then withdrew them with a sua- den shyness. - "Do vou know what answer I read in those eyes, dearest?" he whispered, after a moment or two of silence, bro ken only by the hissing and simmer' ing of the boiling blackberries, -"No.?' '- ' -" - !J read vos !" "Oli, Ilnrry, I dure not. Uiif leaiul aunt aro ho (lotertniiiuil you uhall mar ry M'ihh lirmlbury." "Atiu 1 urn ho ucuMinmcd not to marry nor. lsa man tobo given away us if Iio wcro a Iuiuku and lot, or a liumllo of old jtot hca, IbhouKl like to know Y UrbUlu " i "Harry, tiiey are burning! inn suro oi it. I c:in hiiicii tlium.' Do Jet tro my lianl." Harry Cliilbrd deftly seized up tho big iron spoon, and stirred thu boiling lepths vigorously. ' It's nil your imagination, Ursula !' "No, it's not; and if they are the least bit "scorched they will bu spoiled for Aunt Darling." "Hut, Ursula" The creaking sound of an opening door beyond suddenly dissolved the titt a tttc. Ursula almost pushed Harry Cliilbrd out of tho kitchen. "You'll be on tho pia.zu to-night w hen they liave all gone to the eon cert ?" he persisted in asking through the crack iu the door. "Yes, yes, anything every thing; only go !" And Harry went, beginning to real ize that love-making and preserving tlo not assimilate. " Y our pearl brooch, my dear ? Oh, I remember now. I gave it to Harry more thau a week ago to have mend ed. I dare say it's done by this time''" and Dr. Darhng turned expectantly to our hero. "I I'm very sorry," began Harry; "but tho brooch disappeared in the most unaccountable' manner from my vest pocket. 1 know 1 put it there." "es," dryly interrupted the elder gentleman, "1 rcmnubvr seeing you put ii there, and you assured me at tho time that you never lost anything. So the brooch is gone, h .' "Yes, sir, it U gone. Hut Mrs. Darling may rest assured," Harrv ad ded, with a glance toward that lady, "that I will replace it at the very tirst opportunity."' Oh, it is of no consequence at all!" haid Mrs. Darling, with a countenance that sai l plainly : It is ot the very greatest consequence ! "iVrhaps we sliail tuid.it somewhere about uio Louse." Hut the days all slipped by one bv one, aud the doom of the pearl brooch rema.iud involved in the deepest mys- terv. Harry Callord bought another one and presented it to Mrs. Darling, with a little complimentary speech. Mrs. Darling laughed, and pinned it into the luldi ot the thread lace barb she wore at her throat. But it's so strange w hat can have said Mrs. Dar- become oi tue o ,tht r !' ling. It was the golden month of Sept ember that the old doctor and M rs. Darling made up their minds to invite Miss Brnibury to tea. We'll have pound-cake and pre served blat kbernes," said Mrs. Dar ling, who alwavs looked at the ma Icnal hide of things. 'And if Harry lori t come to terms now. lie never will, adted lier bus band, vv ho didn't. Oct out thu best china and the cha.-ed silver tea-service, Ursula," said Mrs. Darling. "And wear your pink French cal ico, chil-l : lis the most becoming dress von have," said her uncle, with a in glance at the bright little bru nette. And Ursula Percy obeyed both of their mandates, Miss Bradburv came, a handsome, showy young lady, with a smooth "so cicty" manner that made Ursula feel herself very eountryfied ami common indeed. "Delicious preserves these !' said 3Iiss Bradbury. The' are of Ursula's making," said Mrs. Darling. And Harry Cliflbrl passed his plate for a second supyly 1 remember the tlav they were brewed, or baked, or whatever it is you call it," said he, with an arc! 'lance at L rsula. Suddenly old Dr. Darling grew pur- pie in the lace, ami began to cou violently, livery one started up. "He's swallow ed the spoon !" cried Miss Bradsbnry. "till n t li.'u crrtt tliA tlnnnlnvu " " "v j screamed Mrs. Darling. "Uncle, dearest uncle ! piped tip poor little Ursula, vaguely catclun at a glass of water. But Dr. Darling recovered without any more disastrous symptoms. "It isn't tho spoon, and I don't come of an apoplectic family," said he. ''But upon my word this is about tho big gest blackberry I ever came perilously near swallowing!"' And he held out his wife's pearl brooch, boiled up in the blackberries! There was a momentarv ftilenee at the table; and then it was broken by Mrs. Darliur, one of those blessed old ladies who never see an inch beyond thuir own M.oxa.faA nnn "My goodness gracious !" said Mrs. Darling ; "how could it ever have come into the preserved blackberries? t jon't see " "But I do !" Raid Dr. Darling, look ing pro vokingly knowing. "Yes, I see a good many things now that I didn't see betoro." And Harry, glancing across the ta ble at Ursula, was somewhat consoled to perceive that her cheek was a shade more scarlet, it that were possible, than his own. He followed the old doctor into his office when the evening meal was con cluded. Ursula, did not know how she ever would have lived through it, we"6," not tor Mrs. Darling's delight- IU1J putuseness, and aophy Bradbury a snrtace charm of manner, and plunged Dold,y wto tho matter. "Doctor" be began, valiantly; but the old gentleman interrupted bim. "lheres no need ot any explana- tion, my boy," ho said. "I know now u : i i . . . . - . - wny you uiun i, want to marry jjiss Bradbury. And I don't say that I blame yoa much ; only I came very jiaar choking to death with Ursula s blackberry jam." And Dr. Darling laughed again, un til; had his spouse been present, she would purely have thought a eocond attack of apoplexy among the inevila LleH. "Little Ursula !" ho added. ."Well, you hhall have my LlcMNing." The pearls were nil discolored, and the t;old of tho old-fanhiouod brooch tarnished with tho alchemy ot cook ing ; but Ursula keepH that old orua meut ret, more tenderly treasured than 11 the modem kutekuacks with whicli her young husband loads her toilet table. And every year, when she preserves blackberries, Dr. Dar ling comes to tea, and makcn ponder ous witticisms, ami pretends to search in the crystal preserve-dishfora,'boiled brooch !" But then jolly old gentlemen will have their jokes. IV OMAN MLfrl'U.lGE. flail Hamilton is one of tho most pungent female writers of the day. In tho New York JulrjcnUeut she pre sents for the consideration of readers the following: When women are cursed with their trranted prayer, the hardest lot will fall to those whose lot is hardest now. It is the working woman for whom all is asked ; but it is thu workingwoman on whom 'the sword will be turned. She is the un friended or tho iusutlicieully befriend ed. Workingwoinen arechieilylho.se whose male relatives are unable or unwilling to support them. "The loving aud beloved wile," the "petted and caressed daughter" of the strong and successful matt' will bo scarcely conscious l' any change. Iu her well guarded home it matters little to her whether she is loved by law or grace. But the unguarded woman must tight icr fight with the same real and rela tive disability m now ; but wtth an assumed, a legal equality, whicli pre cludes privilege, though it cannot dis arm fate. When hhe has no vote, no ietiued power, her position is a con stant appeal to chivalry, a constant re buke to brutality. Lea she has seized the suurage, ner nruiai employer and the not-too ecnlle by standers will not fail to say, "Now you have got your long-sought equal ity, make the most oi it. Ask no la- vors, and look out for yourself." Alas! but women are women still. Change thy laws, thy state is still the same. iood nit'ii will be good, but the bad 1 s ana seiiisii win nave no cloak lor their sin. With women somewhat deferred to, with greed somewhat held iu leash ty shame, the hie of the weak woman is hard enough. . Is it likely to be eas ier when she has advantages while re taining the disad vantages ot her sex, iitllenged her foes to combat, and dulled the swords of her defenders ? KIIEItlDAX. The editor of the Centreville, Iowa, Clijipcr has been traveliug with the barn burner, aud does not seem to have been very favorably impressed with his appearance. He says of him He w as indeed a sorry sight. With an unsteady gait, and face purpled by bad whisky, bin nose all aglow, and bis eyes bloodshot and bleared, with the sickening smell of the half rotted potations imb.licd in his last night's debauch he was a most repulsive and disgusting spccjacle. It seemed as if he must have drank to such au extent since the war until his wnoie form had become bloated to disfigura tion. For in place of the short, mus cled, well knit and well-made little man we saw at Corinth iu 1MJ2, ami again at Chattanooga in 18G.J, we saw a man with unbounded stomach, man with a superabundance of adi pose generally, with his flesh hanging in naggy ioius arouini nis iicck, au his face bloated and swelled out of proportion, all of which, it was plain the too free uso of whisky, wine, beer and other bloat-creating beverages, had brought about. His hair was cut shaved, rather as close as a pugil ist's, and his face, save a moustache and goatee, was smooth, except cer tain pimples and blotches. This is the beast now in command at Chicago. A Mule 1,000 feet Underground. Tho Belcher mine, says tho Gold Hill News of September illHh, has been developed fir tho new strike, for a month past, by crossing tho Crown Point, Kentucky and Yellow Jacket ground, on the 1,000-foot level, to the shaft of the Yellow Jacket, where the ore is raised to the surface. The track grade over tho Crown Point, however, has been almost "too heavy for men to push the loaded cars, and the work wore out too many men. So Hank Smith, the foreman, conceiv ed tho idea the other day .to buy a couploaof good stout mules, one for each " shift" of tho workmen, and in troduce them into the mine to draw the carts over the heavy grade. One of them was low ered down through Yellow Jacket shaft last evening, being lashed well and swung otF un der one of tho cages. This new and interesting miner kept entirely quiet and docile while hanging over the yawning abyss of 1,000 feet; and he arrived safe and sound on the plat form below, where ho was loosened from his ropes, and seemed to rather like the situation, being not at all mulish, and ho was immediately treat ed to a good feed of barley and hay. This animal is 1,000 feet from day light, down in tho bowels of the earth perhaps the only one in America so far away from grass. The other mule is to be taken down in a day or two. Bo very careful of your promises, and jusin your performances, and remember it is better to do and not promise, than to promise and not perform. ' ,; A well-knows London printer being called on to reply to atoast, said, "Gen- tleman 1 thank you most neartiiy; iArou,.wiuuu vi-tus vuwvoiwo i n.mna " can't make a speech, but I con print ' the Holy City. Whether belonging ask, "What deeds has thou sent be one 63 long a ycu like." i to ths time of Solomon a -Justinian; fore thee?" EXCAVATIONS AT JEIlt'SALE.II Letters recently received at tho State Department, giving account of discoveries made iu Jerusalem by the English party working under the di rection of those who control the "Pal estine Exploration Fund," are of much interest. Excavations have now been in progress for nearly three years. In spite of obstacles thrown in the way by the ignorance, stupidity and cun ning of tho Orientials; iu spite of penis from' falling stones and poison ous air, freezing waters aud suffocat ing heat; in spite of the superstitions of Turkik-li dignitaries, the results tbus far reached are satisfactory. In fact, topographical controversies cen turies old have been settled by posi tive discoveries. As art example of tho Moselum stupidity which the ex plorers had to eitocounter, take the objections of the Pasha of Jerusalem, a well-educated military man, not wanting iu brains. He assured Cap tain Warren that it was unnecessary to dig about the Holy City to settle archieolgical doubts. Mohammedan traditions were all sufficient, he said. "Sakhra," the sacred rock, lay ou the top leaves of a palm tree, from the roots of whicli sprang all rivers. To ry into such matters, he thought, was a sure precursor of dire calamity. The excavations proceeded, neverthe less. Jerusalem is built on a ridge of rock which is the backbone of Pal estine. It is approached only by rough mountain roads. The position has great natural strength. It is at the present time surrounded by a massive, weii-nuiii wan. riveoitiie city grates are open; five are closed. All ot them arc ancient. THE TEMPLES OP SOLOMON AND HEROD. Upon Mount Morkh there is a lanre open space, studded with olive and cypres trees, and surround ed with perhaps the finest scenery in the world. In the centre ot this area rises Sakhra, the mosque, with its sur passingly bcautilul dome. 1 his mosque Christ ions call the "Holy Sanctuary." Within the same area onco stood the temple of Solomon and that erected by Herod. All traces of both disappeared ages ago, and the exact positions occupied by them have for years been fiercely con tested points iu regard to the topog raphy of Jerusalem- AVas Solomon's Temple co-existent with the Sanctua ry? as it confined to a square of six hundred feet in tho southwest corner' Or was it placed elsewhere, in what is now the jrreat open space? These questions excavations can only answer. It is certain that that iti Jlnailica, built by Herod, stood on the southern wall. More than this we do not yet know. Within the sanctuary inclosed and under its solid floors it has hitherto been supposed that there were water springs. Such in-found not to be the fact, but on the contrary, the whole mount is honeycombed with a series of remarkable rock-hewn cisterns, ia which the water, brought by an aque duct from Solomon's Pools near Beth lehem, was stored. These cisterns are connected by a system of chan nels cut out of rock, so that when one was full, the' surplus water ran into the next, until the final overflow was carried oft' to the Kedron. One of these, cisterns has a capacity of two million gallons, and tho total num ber of gallons that could be stored in all the cisterns exceeded ten millions. Aud yet, with the gigantic means of supplying the city with water, which at no extravagant' expense might at any time have been made available, the dependence of tho inhabitants for a thousand years has ; been upon cis terns, which receive the. rainfall from the roofs of houses and the gullies of streets. THE CHURCH OF THE IIOLY SEPUL ' ' CUBE. Next to tho sanctuary, in point of interest, is the Uhurch ot the Holy Sepulchre, said to contain within its walls the tomb of our Lord. It is situated in what is called the Chris tian quarter of the town, at a consid erable distance from the Sanctuary. The authenticity of tho Holy Sepul chre has been the subject of fierce dispute for many ages. The dispute is not settled, though much progress has been mado towards its solution by the excavations. At the. time ot the Crucifixion, it is agreed bv all parties, the place of our Lord's burial was . .t. II. T.U I outsiue oi me wans, xne piace now- pointed is within them. This has al ways been explained by tho alleged fact that, after Constantino built - his "Church for the Kesurrcction," the town was spread out and surrounded it. Others are certain that the pres ent site must have been always within tho limits of the ancient city, and that the sepulchre must be looked for elsewhere, lhe solution ot this ditii- cult question depends upon first, the existence ot an earl.er wall surround ing the city; and second, upon its course; if it existed and ran to tie nst. of the allecred olaco of the senul- chre, the position claimed is doubtless correct ; if it ran to the west, tho po sition is certainly wrong. It is signit cant that up to the present time, in SDite of every effort, no rortion of the wall has been discovered. The points at which it ended aro all un known. . EOBIXSOX'S ARCH. More than thirty years' ago, Pro fessor Edward llobiiison believed that ho had discovered in Jerusalem traces of the arch of a bridge which led from the temple to Zion. If this was true, it would furnish a key to unlock several arseological dimculties But the antiquity ot the arch was rlouhtod bv travelers as erudite as the Professor himself. Ho neverthe less supported the theory stoutly. It became finally one ot the many became - finally one ot the many " mooted questions,'' ana " Juoomson s whether the support of a vast viaduct or the entrance to royal cloisters; this jutting out of a few large stones, as if burst from the wall by som heavy shock the fragment of the arch " is nothing more than this in ap- j pearance the plac has been sought i eagerly of late by American and Eu ropean tourists, in spite of the dis suasions of guides and the dangers of narrow streets. At the convent where tourist from the west gener ally stop, the inquiry of newcomers for " Kobinsou's Arch" became a sub ject of constant merriment, and the demand to be taken there always fol lowed by oricntial shrugs and gestic ulations was the bete noir of mule teers and camel drivers. Tht dispute on this point bas at last been settled. At no inconsider able cost, in the face of strong opposi tion from the Pacha, and with great perseverance,- Captain Warren sunk seven shafts in a line east and' west across the Tyropceou Valley. He has settled it beyond question that Professor Iiobinson's conjecture was correct. The bugle in the wall is the the fragment of an arch built in the time of Solomon.; There exists ia the vast masses the remains of a via duct. They are the fallen vouezoira of the arches and the ruins of the piers. X. Y. l',M. THE X'EEX OF THE Tl'BF. There is no longer a "King of the Turf io this country. This has been for a long time the popular ap pellation applied t j the horse Dex ter, since his wondrous feat of trot ting a milo in 2:17J. It has been contended by many that thin time could never be beaten; but who shall now tell the possibilities of the American trotting horse? Dexter's time Las been beaten by Goldsmith Maitl, by one fjurUt tf a ttecoud, and she now holds the crown as the 'Queen of tho Turf." This wonder ful speed was attained on the Cold Spring Course, at Milwaukie, Sept. Cth. At first, grave djubts existed as to the track being a full mile, but it has since been measured by the city surveyor of Milwaukie, and in a sworn statement pronounced an ac curate mile track. This mare w now fourteen years old. She was I reeded by Mr. John Decker, of Orange County, New York, in the spring of 1857, and sired by Goldsmith's Volunteer, a sort cf It vsdiek's Hambletonian. In Fcbru- ary, 18C3, Mr. Decker sold her to his I sou, John B. Decker, Jr., for 2o0, w ho, on his way home . with her to another part of the country, sold her to Win. Tompkins, of Hampton, Or ange couuty, for 3C0. Mr. Alden Goldsmith was anxious to gt hold of the mare, and on the 29th of March, of the same year, he bought her of Mr. Tompkins, for SGoO. Mr. Gold smith kept her until November, 1SCS, when, after her remarkable achieve ments at Buffalo and on other cour ses, elic was sold to Mer.srs. B. Jack- man and Budd Dobla for $2'J,0U0. About a year ago, Jackman ' and Do ble sold the mare for $10,000 to a Mr. Smith, a banker in New York, who is her present owner. At this race she trotted three mile heats and was timed as follows: First, 2:20i; second, 2:17; third. 2:20J. As Mr. Bonner is understood to have repeatedly offered $100,000 for the horse that would beat Dex ter's time of 2:17J, we think that this is now considered a fair figure for Goldsmith Maid.

I am very glad to thee you; a fine day, thir; I thee you thtill ride your fine old gray, thir." "No sir; this horse is one I bor rowed thi3 morning." "Oh I ahl well, thir, how are the old gentleman and lady." "My parents have been dead about three years, sir." "But how ith your wife, thir ; and your children?" "I am an unmarried man, sir." "Sure enough. Do you thtill live on the old farm ?" "Xo sir; I have just come fram Ohio, where I was born." - "Well, thir, I geth I don't know you, after all. Good morning, thir." A Wyoming correspondent says that in most ot their juries, during their recent court term at Cheyenne there was a slight sprinkling of wo man. In capital cases female jurors are placed io charge of a female bail iff, and are allowad to retire to an apartment by themselves during the intermission of the court, until the cause is finally submitted, when they are of course, required to be shut up with their associates of the sterner sex until they can agree upon a ver dict.. This is said to afford a fine opportunity for . innocent semi-flirtations; but it is not alleged that the lady jurors did anything of the sort. "Every good act," says Mohammed, "is charity.".' Your smiling in your brother's face is charity; an exhorta tion of your fellow men to virtuous deeds is equal to alms-giving; your putting a wanderer on the right road is charity; your removing thorns and stones and other obstructions , from the road ia charity.

It must be cool, j-st as cool as the butter maker wants it in summer, and just as warm iu win ter as is necessary. Then there must be, if possible, a stream of livinfr water run in troughs through it, in. which to set the milk pans w ith. milk. And then these pans, mostly crocks that hold a half gallon or more, are kept sweet by hot water and a warm rag to dry them. And then when they go to milk the cows, they carry a basin with a cloth , to work the bag, so that no dust should fall into the milk; and when they bring the milk to the dairy room, it is strained into the crocks and the crocks set into the cool water, where they remain until the cream rises. And they watch the cream, when it is all right they don't let it sour lake it off aud put into a churn, pure aud swtset, and the butter is soon made to come; and then they don't put their sweaty hands into the buttei to work out the butter-miik, but they do it with a paddle which is as clean as the churn or the bowl in which their buf fer is worked. And then after the butter-milk is worked out, the butter is made into large rolls and each roll covered with a clean, white cloth, and is laid away in a cool place, where it is to remain until wanted, That's the way butter makers make good butter.
