r.OMANOE OF A POOKmBOOK.
I wan just twenty fivo when I first
met Aliro Thome, thj daughter untl
beirens of Oeorgo Thome, tlio grcnt
hitnkcr.
I fell $MM lately in love with, tho
charming girl, knowing well thnt iticii
love was utter mildness.
Her father was reported to Wo a very
proud, imil.it ion . man, who would look
high for a soa-in law. 1 felt that he
would not so much as give mo heanng.
to my suit; and, as to winning hot
without hi consent, what would that
bring to her but minery 1 I had noth
ing with which to repay or com)iOQSKte
Iter for the sacrifice of a marriage with
toy poverty. t
Ho wo bade good-bye without n
word of explanation, though 1 knew
sho rend the anguish in my heart, ami
tears were in soft eyes averted from me.
1 kitwed the trembling hand she placed
in mine, and turned away nnd Imde
farewell to her and Wope together.
SJcarcolv had I got back to town and
whs Ktriving rat neatly to drown vain
regret in the bustle and interest of
business when a terrible misfortune fell
upon me. Mi. Overton had given nw
a check for $20,000, desiring me to go
to the b.iuk and cut it caahed. 1 Living
executed the commi.sMion and returned,
imagine my horror on discovering that
the Hcketliook containing UM inenoy
was gone.
Whether stolen by villains or lot
by my own carelessness, what mattered
it) It was goue, and I utterly ruined.
What I tmflfered tbe next few hours
(Jotl onlv knows; and when after being
dismissed, I returned to my own room,
I was nearly desperate; not only had
uh a lucrative -: io . but my
a . a
future speared to bo irretrievably
blasted, for there are suspicions
which are as fatal to a tumi morally
as woulil te plivaieauv Hie vtouii'i
of a nil hall.
Hut 1 was voting and of a hoeful
nature, and I began to realize that
isd been h-uienti v dealt with. On re
calling all that had happened after my
eaviug the bank, and the utter im
xissibility of the pocketbook Wmg
taken from the breast of my coat, 1
.ft -1 1 . T
c:tine to tne conclusion mat i in -i it
lave diop(eU it, anl thereujou J re
solve! to have recounv to all mana in
my power to-ecover the money.
I hal saved during the pait Tow
as
vears a conMiiierauin uruou ot uiv
salurv, an.l determine.-! to duvoto it to
the purMAo I hai in view. I a lvi
tissd daily iu all the prominent journals,
not offuring lh customary reward, but
dtrsciilK.nl tii v uiifortunate jKMilion, my
honor lost aud my fortune L!aald.
For two weeka 1 kept my loss bsforo
the public, and had almost begun to
dcKpiar of any favorable results when,
one morniug, a stranger came to me a
tall, dark, stem io -king man, who re
garded me with a pair of kiudly brown
eyes that had something familiar about
them.
The stranger declined the seat I
offered him, and Ifan at ouce speak
ing brusquely and to tho point. "I
have heard efyour loas," ho said. "1
have read vour adveitiscmeut iu the
pat ers, and 1 feel deeply iuteieated in
and for you. I have jest left your late
employers, und after the satisfactory
manner iu which km my questiona were
answcret, I became your surety for the
$20,000."
"Whair .
I sprang towuid him in t ho wilde.!
excitement.
'Oh, sir." I lgsn, but lit? axon
stopped MM,
Let me Uiuhb, sanl he. "1 ve
done this ticcause I am convinced that
you are au upright, honest man, and
the greatest proof of my confidence 1
can give, you is that I am about to
offer you the osition of cashier in my
banking house. My name, sir, is
George Thome."
George Thorne, the father 'of Alice,
the girl 1 loved! Ah, the mystery was
sol -' If It was of her his eyes re
minded me; it was to her I was in
debted for this help.
Fifteen years had fl wn aince I had
lost the pocketbook. I had now be
come a prosperous man, surrounded by
all tho luxuries ivhich wealth affords.
1 had found in Mr. Thome in ore than
a pit t. roti ; I found a friend. Under
a bru.soue manner he had a heart of
gold. From the liibt day of our ac
quaintance he had evinced toward me
the liveliest interest and affection.
I was soon made partner, and when,
on a certain blessed day, I became the
husband of Alice und his son in-law, he
presented me with a receipt for 20,000
Jhat he had paid to the Messrs. Over
ton for my loss.
So time Want on. The banking
house known the ii u of Thome tk
W. 1 a:e arts in a thriving con
dition. 1 had a beautiful wite and two
lovely children, and yet with all these
sources of happiness, I was not quite
contented, there was a create in the
rose leaf.
For some timo past I had been
vainly endeavoring to account for the
extraordinary interest which my father-
in-law had taken in me, because J dis
covered, as I grow older and saw more
of this selfish, egotistical workl, that
very few such generous actions were
performed without motive, and the
solutien of this, to me, difliculfc problem
frequently occupied my thoughts.
At first I had attributed it all to
Alice's influence, but I knew now thut
it had been as groat a surprise to her
as to myself.
About this time Dr. Pohard, one of
Mr. Thome's' moat intimate friends,
arrived in New York, and one morning
while sitting at breakfast expressed
great surprise at the numerous adver
tisements in the papers relating to
money lost and found,
"Well," said he, "I have not tho
least sympathy for those who lose
money. They are generally carelcsi?, stu
pid people, not fit to be trusted; although
I remember having heard f a young
man having lost a pocketbook some
yi-Ht-s sgo containing twenty thousand
dollars, and I declare when I read his
piteous appeal:, winch were in all tie
pajM'rs, my heart fairly ached tot mm.
Hut," continued he, addressing my
father io-law, who had become very
pale, "you ought to remember the cif
cumstanoes, for it occurred just at the
time of the great failure ia Philadelphia
by which you were so heavy a loser."
"Yes, I recollect the affair," re
plied Mr. Thome, who appeared io be
suffering.
"I never heard," continued the doctor,
"what became of the oor devil, and
yet 1 should like to know."
"Should you'f" said I laughing, tbn
let iao gratify your curiosity, I,
Arthur Wallace, am that peer devil,
doc-tor, tved from ruin and despai Uy
BjHyenefaotor here." And the Inf
lated all the events of the last fii'ti
years.
The doctor aprang to Ins feet atd
grasped his old friend's hand.
"Well and generously done!" said lie,
but Mr. Thome interrupted him.
"1 am not well," he said, faintly. "1
stithr greatly let mo go to my room,"
The next day ho sent lor me to his
private oi'i .. I found him looking
(tale und ha'giil J.
"Sit down, my dear Arthur," said Ir,
in a low voice, "and Hitteii to me. Far
a long time I have had a confessien to
make to you, one that weighs on me IO
heavily that I must ease my conscience
of its I o.'i 1 1 can bettor bear to do fto
now, that 1 have in a measure mat's
some amends for the trouble 1 oue
csusmI yon."
"The trouble you caused me!" aaid I.
"You have been the most generous of
mou to me. It is through your kin4
ness I occupy my present Hition, it is
to you 1 owe my happiness, and mon
than all, my honor."
Mr. Thome opened his deak and
took from it a pocketbook.
"Do you remember thiai" said he, us
ho placed it in my hand.
"Yes," replied I, "it is the one I
loaf; but how H
I could not finish my question. Th"
truth stared me in the face. I sprang
t ) my feet ia dismay.
"Great heavens!" I cried, "you
found the io .v. '
"Aye! and kept it," he grojned, with
anguish in his voice. "But, oh! do not
comb-inn without hearing me. Yester
day you heard Dr. Ponnard allude to
tbv great losses I had sustained by thejfot to ge atraight tl .n to
f.iilute m Philadelphia. 1 did but dare
to nvtke my embarrassments known, as
that would have hastened my ruin

was on thst day that 1 meditated
suicide. 1 was abort $20,0Q0 to meet
my liabilities, maturing on the loth.
1 was overwhelmed with deapair; the
air of tho ofKoe seemed to stills me and
J rushed into the street. f had hardly
gone tcu yarla al.ni ruy lot struck
ffotneihing. It ws your pocketbook.
I open, i it and tne night turned me
giddy ami faint. Then commenced
within tny breast one of those moral
struggles which, even to conquer, is
f ai ml, but in awiiich, alaa miserably
v.tuquished. The next day I satisfied all
d liltta usin me. To the world I was
Ucorge Thorne, au honest upright man;
to mysedf I was nothing better than a
mah factor. Yvu know the rest.
Through my guilt you asseu two weeks
of indescribable anguish. 1 have
sluee endeavored to make ressratiou
fur this misery I caused; but 1 also suf
fered. Moral atonements are tbe
most cruel, because they are eternal.
1 have known and yet feel the bitterness
of expiation. Hay, my sou, can you
forgive my crime?
Could I forgive? I looked at the
pallid face, anguished eyes. What
were my sufferings of those two ter
rible weeks compared to the secret pain
aud shame this man had borne for
years! This man, the victim of one
solitary deviation from rectitude, eo
upright in all else, and whoso life had
been ono long atonement. I grasped
hiM hand; team filled my e es.

To me comes tho braketnan, and
seating himself on the arm of the sest,
ays: "1 went to church yesterday."
"Yeal" I said, with that interested
inflection that calls for more. "And
whirl church did you attend!"
"Which do you guessf" he asked.
"Home Union Mission Churchf' I
hazarded.
"New," ho said; "1 don't like to run
on these branch roads very much. I
don't oftsu go to church, and when I
do 1 want to run on the main Hue,
hero your run is regular and you go
oil a schedule time and don't have to
wait on connections. I deu't like to
4un on a branch. Good enough, but I
don't like it."
" Kpiacopair 1 guessed.
"Limit." I express," he aaid, "all
palace cars, and $2 extra for a seat;
fast time, and only sujps at big stations.
Nic Hue, but too exhaustive for a
b akeman. All train men iu uniform,
and conductor's punch and lantern
silver plated and m train I , s allowed.
Then the paasfttigeis are allowed to talk
back at tbe conductor; ami it ruskes
them too free sad easy. No, I couldn't
stand the otlae cars. Nice road,
though. Dout often hear of a receiver
being apointed on that line. Home
mighty nice ieople on it, toe."
"Universalistf" 1 guessed.
"Hroad gauge' said the brakeman;
docs too much complimentary huineM.
Everybody traveU on a pass. Con
ductor doesn't get a fair once in fifty
miles. Stops at all flag stations, and
won't run into anything but a union
dep-.' No smuking car on the tiain.
Train orders are vsgue though, and
train men don't gt along well with
the passengers. No, I don't go to the
Universalis!, though 1 know some
awfully good people who run on thst
road."
"Preabytrtaiii ' I asked.
"Narrow gauge, ehf said the brake-
man; "pretty track, strsight as a rule;
tunnel right through a mountain rather
than go round it; spirit level grade;

Hmoke if vou went to; kind of ge as
you-phase road, Too many sidetracks,
and everv switch wide oiien all the
time, with the switchmau aound asleep
and target lamp dead out. Get on as
you please and get off when yen want
to. Don't have to show your tickets,
and the conductor isn't expect!.! to do
anything but smuse the )ataogrs..
No, sir, 1 was offered a pass, but I
don't like the line. I don't like to
travel on a line that has no terminus.
Do you knew, sir, I asked a
Division
Hujierinteudent, where that road runs
to, ana he said he hoped t die if he
knew. I saked him if the General
SiijMjrintendent ceuld tell me, aud he
said ho didnt believe they bad a General
Superintendent, and if they had he
didn't know any more about the road
thau the passengers. I asked him
who he reported to. and he aaid 'no
body.' I asked a conductor who he got
his orders from, and he said b didn't
take orders from any living man or
dead ghost. And when 1 asked the
engineer who he got his orders frem, be
said he'd like to seo anybody give him
order; he'd run that train to suit him
self, or he'd run it into the ditch. Now,
you see, sir, I'm a railroad man, and I
don't care to run on a road that has no
time, makes no connections, runs no
where, and has no Sueriatendent. It
may be all right, but I've rail-ro ido!
too long to understand it."
"Did you try the Methodist I ' I
said.
"Now you're shouting," be said odlfa
some enthusiasm. "Nice road, oh?
Fast time snd plenty of passengera.
Engineers carry a power ef attam, aud
don't you forget it; steam uge shows
a hundred and enough ail the time.
Lively road; when the conductor shouts
'all aboard,' you can hear him at the
next station. Every train lamp shines
like a headlight. Htopovor checks
given on all through tickets; passengers
can drop elf the train aa often as he
likes, do tho station two or three days,
and hop on the next revival train that
cemes thundering along. Good, whole
saled companionable conductors; ain't
a road in the country where the pas
sengers feel mote at home. No passes;
every passenger pays full traffic raics
for his ticket. Wesley an house air
brakes on all ttains, ton; pretty safe
road, but I didn't ride over it yester
day." "Maybe you went to the Congrega
tional church?" I said.
"Popular road." said the brukeman;
"an old road, too one of the very oldest
iu this country. Good roadbed and
eomfortable cars. Well managed road,
too; Directors don't interfere ith the
Division Superintendent and train
orders. Road's mighty popular, but
its pretty independent, too. See, did'nt
one of the Division Superintendents
down east discontinue one of the oldest
stations on this line two or three years
ago? But it's a mighty pleasant road
to travel on. Always such a pleasant
class of passengers.
"Perhaps yen tried the Baptists?" I
guessed once more.
"Ah, ha!'' said the brakeman, "she's
a daisy, isn't she? River road; heauti-
fill curves; sweeps around anything to
keep oloae to the river, but it's alf steel
rails and rock ballast, single track all
tbe way, aud not a side track from the
road house to I he terminus. Takes a
heap of water to t tin it through; double
tanks at every station, and there isn't
an engine iu the shop that can pull a
pound or run a mile in less than two
gauges. Hut it runs throngs a lovely
country, these river roads always do;
river on one side and hills on the other,
aud its a steady climb up the gisde all
the way till tbe run ends where
the river begins. Yes, sir, I'll take
the river road every time for a lovely
tiip, sure connections ami good time,
and uo prairis dust blowing in at the
windows. And yesterday when the
conductor came round bribe tickets
with a little basket punch, I didn't ask
him to pass me, but paid my fare like a
little man twenty-five cents for an
hour's run sad a little .-:. c-rt by the

the
and
revolving caps, se that it lookod liko
the roof of a -signal service station.
The object was to tot the pressure
of the atmosphere on curs going .t
different rates 0f ieid, so as to
determine of what shape to make the
front of the cars iu order best to resist
this pressure, which is very great.
Ia the cabooses attached to freight
trains on the Erie Railroad there is
placed an automaticcontri wince called
the "telltale," which registers all the
stoppages and the rate of speed over
every feot of the road. Freight
trains are not allowed to run over 15
miles au hour, and if thU rate is ex
ceeded the fact is at once disclosed
on inspection of the apparatus.

The farmers of the Uuited States,

OtlAIN X STOCK.
Reports of April just received at
the department of agriculture show
an increase of nearly four per cent in
the area of wiuter wheat sown.
Kansas and Missouri show the largest
increase. Ohio and Illinois but
slight) and New York and Pennsyl
vania remain the same as last year.
Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee and
Virginia each report some decreased
Owing to prevalence of snow at date
of return the condition of crops is
not given in large portions ol the
principal wheat growing states,
but wherever mentioned it
was stated below the average of
last year. The alternate freezing
and thawing during the mouth of
March was the most detrimental of
all weather during the wiuter. . The
live stock of the country, notwith
standing the scarcity of food .
and provender caused by the
long and severe winter, has
come out in 'air health though 're
ported very low in flesh. No malig.

Local disorders of luns and stom
