"Did you sec that young lady while talking with IMarko 1" Tbe speaker was a tall looking man of thirty live, in fa uniform of caval ry colonel in the Confederate scrvico Tbe time was a summer night in 'GU ; tho place, tho hotel parlor in ft small villatro of Middle Tennessee. Tho oc casion was n "hop" ffiven in liotior of the presence of ft detach wont of "For rest's Cavalry," the daring riders whoso names are household words in Houth from the mountains of Tennessee to the valleys of the Mis sissippi. The young lady referred to wss a pretty, graceful girl, with dark gray eyes, waving hair of dark, reddish gold, and tho exquisite com plexion that SO often accompanies it. "Who is she V asked tho Colonel's companion. "That is Pictou's Bweetkrert, Miss Garnett." "Net the same one that saved his life after Suiloh V inquired Captain liacclay. The same," rejoined Colonel Terry. "She is a little creature to do such a thing, but she did. You see, sh wss in the neighborhood at the time of tho battle, and somebody told her that Picton wss killed. She went over the field and found him badly wounded through the lunp, but still live. She sent a boy that she hsd brought with her to hunt up a surgeon, and she stayed by Picton. Tho boy found Dr. Cowan, and when they got back Miss Garnett had raised Picton up, with his head on her breast, so be could breath more easily. Dr. Cowan examined the wound without moving him, and told her that he was afraid it was hopeless, for tbe least motion, even laying him down again, might produce ft fatal hemorrhage. 'If he could be kept perfectly quiet until morning, and the bleeding checked during the night, he might have a bare chance to pull through.' 'Well,' said the brave little woman, 'be shall be kept quiet, for I will stay hero and not let him move.' And, by George he did ; she never stirred all night, and in the morning they carried him to the nearest house, and she nursed him until he wss out of danger." "That's ft sweetheart worth having," said Captain Barclay, with a gUoce of admiration at tbo subject of their conversation. Half an hour later Cut. Terry wss ftt Hiss Gftrnett's side, receiving a warm greeting, that told that the two were fast friends. "Tell me of my friends in tho old battalion," she said, presently. "flow many V he naked, quUzically ; "more than one V "I meant whet Ieaid," she an swered, with ft merrry laugh snd a quick, bright blush ; "I have Uursl from 'one' of them very recently." "Dees Cbsrles Itnow you ar heref asked the Colonel. "No ; it is not a week siuco I left Memphis. Will tlioy join you UarO'1" "They f ho repeftted, inquiringly. "The rest of the command, I moan," she replied, blushing again. "A portion of it may, but for that part that you are particularly interest ed in, I cannot say. You know thy are with the old General, and their movements can't be counted on with any great certainty." "They are the 'comets' of tho ser vice," said M is i Garnett. "Quite aa erratic, at ail ovents." "Ma7 I have tbe plgasoro of this dance V said tho Colonel, as the band struck up a quadrille. "I know it if useless to ask you for a waltz." Tbe danee was over, he led her to a chair, and, after a moment's gay bad inage, was about to resign himself in favor of other claimants for her smiles, when he saw a sudden ghastly pallor overspread her features. "Miss Alice, ere you ill V he ex claimed, anxiously. Let me get you some water. It was scarcely a moment b :f'oie his return, but even then he was shocked at her white, drawn face. "Call my sister," she had said to an other gentleman with her, while Col onel Terry had gono for the water, and both reached her at the same time. "Lucy, take me home," she whis pered, "lam dying." "Oh, no, darling," said her sister, tenderly, "you a ill bo well in tho morning." As quickly as possible tho carriage was called ad tbe sick girl tenderly placed in it. When they were just smarting uoi. Terry wished them yood night, ex pressing hw hopes that Miss Alice would have recovered hy morning. Bhe put out her hand, and, exerting her strength, said distinctly. "Yes, I shall be well 'in thb morn ing.' Tell Charley " her voice fail ed, and, lifting her slim whito hand, she loosened the flowers she wore at her breast and put them into the Col onel's hand. "Give fioso to him yes in tho morning." Her voice died away tc a faint whisper, and her head fell back on her sister's shoulder. The lady who had acted as their chap erene hastened to apply restoratives, and the carriages rolled swifily away. Tbe next morning when Colonel Terry called to inquire after tho in valid he bad no need to aak, for from the door there floated tho mournful signal of death. Hhocked beyond ex pressions, the hardy soldier turned away, unable then even, to offer his services if they were needed. He went again after a while and saw Mrs. Cameron, the hostess of the sisters during their visit. From her he learned the brief details of Alice's death. Her attack had been a sudden spasm of the heart, aud she had never rallied. She had not spoken but once; then they caught her lower's name, aud a repetition of the words, "in the morning.'' ;Pcor Charley, who will tell him 1" groanei the Colonel, when the lady's Voiced fenced. "You sro his best friond," she an swered, "I think no ono else could do it so gently." "I can't," he replied, shaking his head. "1 would rather face a battery. Why, you don't know, you can't think how his very life seems bound up in her ; and no a" They hurried her next day ; six of Picton's friends oarried his dead love to her grave, and then came sadly back, each questioning who wodM bear the tidings to tho gallant sabreur far away with tho old brigade. That night tho ordet c.uuo to i n the taaiw ewmmaww; "and by daylight the troop .wore tnilea away. As they renched tho vicinity of tho appointed rendezvous a desultory firing warned them of an approaching conflict, Pres ently they formod themselves in tha midst of a portion of tho commsnd, drawn up in a ptoce of woods overlook inc a sloping field which on tho other side rosn to a sharp eminence, on the brow ef wh'ch was posted a Federal battory. Farther to the right the tiring he came sharper, aud soon fhe roll of musketry swept sll slong tho line. "I say. Barclay," called Colonel Terry, as that officer passed him, "have you seen Picton yet t" And, as Bare lay shook his head, he addetl : "Tell the boys not to let him know yet. Wait till this is over." "All right; I'll tell them," annwoi od Barclay as ho rode away. a a at a "ineold Uocoral will be wanting that battery tho first thing they know, said ono of tho mm, as a shell ex plod ed over their heads. They'd belter keep it quiet.' "Thar, what did I tell you 1" ho added, biting off a huge piece of "Jon green ;" "thar go tho Misdnatppi boys now." As he spoke a tawny column moved out of the woodt and swept gallantly across the field. But as they reached the center a murderous round of graMi and c.tnistcr toro through their ranks, and tho column broke in confusion. Three times their leader rallied them to the charge, and three times they were shattered by the galling fire. "Tell you what, boys," called out the long logged pri irate, who had be fore spoken, "that's fun comin' now That's Gaus' bugle. Tim 'old regi ment' w.trit some of the pie f He stoocdaud felt his saddle girth as he spohe, thou straightened himself and waited for tho command, for he aas "one of the boys." Tho next roomcut there wai a ringing cheer from the ranks at Gnor! Forrest rode up, "Bjys, he exclattne J, p unting with his sword, 'I want that batuuv exp and tund. ., couldn't ta bays to do regiment has tried, i if. N w 1 want you better than that. I am gfnng to lead you, and I want you to follow me." fill Another cheer aas his the men fell into ranks. "Charge J" ami down the slojie rode tho gallant "old regiment," neverfaltcr inr, as the grajH shot swept through the serried ranks, closing each gap as it was made by the deadly tire ; on, oti, following the lead of the tall figure at the head of the column till they rode right over the depth-dealing guns, "sab'ring tho gunners there," and tho woods gave back the ringing echoes of tho famous "r.bel yell" as the victory was won. Won ! Yes, but at a fearful cost. That fatal slope was drenched with blood of tho Southland's btayest sons. After tho charge Colonel Terry found himself faco to faco with Charley Picton. "My God, how cau I tcfl him r muttered the Colonel to himself as tho gallant young fellow rode to ward him holding out his hand. "It tikes the 'old regiment' to do up things in stylo !" he said, grasping tho Colonel's hand. "Say, Terry, did you see Miss Alice ? Coleman has just got back from Memphis, and he teld me she had gone on a visit to . un friends In C ." But as ho spoke ho suddenly put his hand to his sido. "I am shot f he gasped, faintly. It was true. A stray bullet had struck him in tho side, aad Colonel Terry caught him an ho reeled in bis saddle, and rod with him to tho fiel 1 hospital. When tho surgeon oxamiued his wound he Abook his h ad doubtfully. "I know a nurse worth twenty doc tors," whispered Picton, with a smile. "Terry, can't you fetch her to mo 1" Through tbo night tho Colonel stay ed with him. Once he wakened and repeated the question he had uskod just before ho was shot. "I saw her, yes," tho Colonel an swered, huskily. "She sent you some flowers." The blue eyea lighted up with a tender g!o w, and Picton held out his hand. Silently Oelonel Tony to.k from his breast-pocket. the withered flowers, a spray of ivy, and a hait opend white in tho outstretched rose, and iam tneiu SI . fl hand. Then the wounded maa slept. But much in a couple of hours ho awoke, worse, and tho surgeon in liis round h told tho bronzed w.itcner that tho end . 1 . a was very near. ''Terry 1" and the Colonol bont his head to catch tho faint accents. "I'm dying. I wouldn't mind only poor Alice. Toll her gently, please she loves me, you koow and I oh, Terry! it is hard to ieavo her. My poor, poor darling." For a moment the Colonel could not answer. Then, choking back a sob ho said slowly and distinctly : "Charley, Alice is waiting for you. You are not leaving hr, but goiug to meet her." Abewildeied, troubled look came in to the whit ful blue eyeR. "Don't you understand me, Char lev 1 She is dead. We buried her there in C . 1 couldn't tell you before, dear old Hoy. But now you will be with her before you have time to grieve ufter her. She died with your name ou hor lips, murmuring of meeting you 'in the morainir.' " 1 He undorsteod now, and a smile o relief flitted across his psle lips. "Dear girl," ho murmurod. "I am so glad she will not have this grief to bear, ' i hen he sleet again, and the hours passed on until the eastorn sky bi ight ' no i with tbo solemn dawn light. "Terry f The word was but tho faintest whisper, but tho watcher in stantly bent his head to listen. "It in morning," oamo tho faint, gasping accents, and ftgftin the white hd dropped over tho blue eyes. Five, ' v minutes passed. Then Colonel Terry lifted the dead hands and cross ed them over the pulseless breast, reverently covering the still, white face, and turned away. His two friends had met once mors -"in tho morning" of a fadeless day. i:ir vol nn.i r It is wonderful how much msy lie done at home by willing hands and clever brains. The present style of furniture offers plenty of scoiki fur amateur taste and work. Still it is not given to cvrry one with s new house end tho power ef buying new furniture. Many ieoplo willing and anxious to have bright, dainty sur roundings (by the way, brightness is hardly tbo great characteristic of the present taste,) cannot afford to lismis tho solid, ungainly old forniture thst came to them with the house, and ia far too good to grt rid of, and yet too utterly out of date to bo salable at any thing like a fair price The famous "drawing room suite," covered in rap or brocbe, of some, to modern taste, excruciating shade of green or magenta, which was once all but universal, is fast dying out, Kuough tpecimons still remain to harass unlucky owners, who ftre gradually awaking to a taste for less decided colors. The things arc are good, nsy even handsome of their kiad; but, oh! that covering, which no amount of sun -to be got in our climate at all events can appar ently fade to any less trying shade.

I. y this attero on your material and cut the latter out exactly by it, marking all the required plaits and nicks. Then strip off carefully the gimp binding ofthechftir you intend operating ou, brush the cushion thoroughly and remove any stain with benzine, or yau may chance to see your old enemy reappear through tho new cover. The chair thfayi prepared, pin on your new cover, taking care to get it to set quite evenly everywhere before fastening it This d me, nail it on carefully with tiny furniture taoks made for the purpose, ami finish it all off with a gimp or a band of the same material, stretched firu.'y all rouftd to hide the rough edges. "LIVE AD BT ll E." After a young man has been employ ed for years by a business firm, or in tho laborious work of the farm, m mencing, erhaps, at tho lowest round of tbo ladder, and by a11 dilligenco, faithfulness and a watchful regard for his employer's interests, hat become a thorough master of the business, it is, "brauch on , for himself' and utilize tho knowledge he has acquired in his schooling for his own advancement and benefit. And this laudahlo under taking it would seem as tho tgh his late employers should deem it a p'easure, not to say, duty, to help him, if not with substantial financial aid, with good wishes and tho influence of kimi words and coinmendatioi.s. Wnilo there are man Instances of this kind, theroaroalso many where the loverse of this is practiced, and tho late honest, capable, faithful employee, when he takos the responsibilities of business upon himself, is the Subject of ungener ous und unjust criticism, because he comes into honorable compotitieu with his late employer. The world is large enough for all, and no ono man, or set of man, can possibly have a mortgago upon any branch of business, or monopolize all tho chances for coaducting au honor able calling, whether it be in publish ing a newpsaper or soiling peanuts. What do we acquire a knowlodge of buiness for? Why are somo of the best years of our lives passed in the employ of other, except to educate us so that we may be capable, some day, of asmming charge ourselves, and fit ting us to take the place of those whose active life must sooner or later be brought to a close "Live and let live,'' and when, by the aid of those who have labored long and earnestly for you, a conipetuucy has been secured, and on have a full share of this world's goods, do not be so sordid, mean and unuianl.y as to throw obita- cles in the way of tbe success of the a - youuiz man who was onoe in your era- ploy.
