JttR. TITZGERALD'S MARBIAGE.
Amelia Fitzgerald 11 the danf-Mir of a north
country manufacturer, w ho li ft her many
thousands ot pound in hard cash, with part
of which Ahhotscraithio has lately been pur
chased. It is a handsome Btonc house, in the
Centre of a lair Low land estate, honnic with
moor and forest. Iliihes apart, she is a lovable
little woman enoughs jet Lttciin I'ltergald
docs not love her, and for no moio valid rea
son than that she is not somcl ody ilse. Then
why have married her ? 1 he question is only
too pregnant, tho answer too olmous. When
a mutual friend, a inatch-tnahing woman, had
first broached thosulij ct t ln.n, )o mrwered
at once:
"Can you ask mo? If the joung lady is
fool enough to marry me, hue 1 am, and let's
Waste no rr.oro words about it."
Amelia Huggins was not bug fiom the
school room, and fill of sweet schoolrooniish
view of love. Tho younger son of an t.ir!, fio
feet eleven, handsome, and apparently
charmed with her; what moie could she want?
Now, Lucius was no abandoned wretch; ho
was simply a young man wIimso six or eight
yean of life had dispossessed him of abcut
double tho number of tliousiiids, which hud
ever belonged to him Oh, a cry vulgar
miracle as times go and ho had ltter'y
that is, for tho past year or two saddled
himself with a despci.ita passion for lkrtha
Vcrulam, and which, alas, she full V returned.
As neither of these ill starred loveis had
any money, or even a reason l lo expectation
Of being left some, Limns felt no sort of
scruple in ollcring his heart to the willing
Amelia.
Ah, ami ho would do his duty Ilk" a man,
ho would. No moie (luting now. Of course,
If they met much, it would bo awkward
doiioed dangerous (with nnotlier "liy Jovol") i
"And sii wis. ritvgrrni'i insists on i.atiy
Verulam and her daughter Ii nig invited,
mused her husband. "'I he Verul.ims of all
Seoplo in tho world I For lVrcy tool As if
lirdio Verulam (as sho was culled, her real
name being Hertha,) would many I'uejl"
I'erey is Amelia's brother, older tlinii hIio is
by four or live ears. Itii.li, of course. Unj
oins senior left lu ttioutauds etjually divided.
But the son had not acrjuirod any ot that gen
tleness and good breidmg, which st emed to
have coiuu tn the sistei its if by inngic.
"Yet he is hisbrother-iii law, must be made
the best of, and is even now coming on the
10th to meet Ijidy Constiiiiti i tho fastidious
and her delightfully line daughter! If only
they would send an excuse: nut no. uncum
Stances would never go ami risk tin ir chcr
ished old reputation fur spitefuliiessj. flow
they must snulo now that is, il they cvtr do
smile."
All this time Amelia was perfectly happy
and screno; for when Lucius was with her lie
was moro than ecu mix prtlt mint, ninl thin
had she not gamed licrown way in tho nutter
of invitinir theso Y villains?
And they were coming, too. "Were going
to poy othtr msiU in the neighborhood, and
should he so delighted," Lady Cons'antu's
Doto had said.
Lady Coiist.mtia was Itiuliu's stepmother,
and the cirl was ill pendent on her for food,
shelter and clothing utterly dtpendiut; ami
her father's chattering, good-natured, shallow -patetl
widow was calculating, though Kindly,
and had, tin reover, but a limited income.
To marry Lucius, llirdia knew, wns utteily
impossih'e- knew it fiom thu inument the
first lovodlutter acttattd her heart; so site re
signed him gave him with her own fno will
to Amelia, Sho had a mot bid longing to wit
pees the tueeiss of hit' work and had accom
panied her mother to Abbotscraithm, delud
ing herself into thu ldta that she would liuicc
forth cudme tho void in hei life with less bit
ter pangs if she wile but allotted to see Lin ins
rich, happy and contented.
So, w hiii 1-nly Coustuutia told htr Unit she
))d received an mutation fiom Mis. l'itgti
kid, and ill her blindness and her lino of living
at othtr people's expense snpgrstiil that they
should accept it, Hit die had otlerid no opposi
tion. When a woman allows herself to line a
married man, she may tell her conscience that
every taint itont mo witu panitatus Iter guilt;
but sho must be morally blind, indeed, if she
imagines that all the ijiislititsof all tho angels
centered in tho wrong ono would ever ho
weighed with her in the uidiilc.eiico of her urn
lawful passion.
Theie was something artless an evident
dcairo to like and to bu liked about the wo
man in posses' ion, which went sti night to
Dirdie's heart and disarmed her of au ill
feeling against Lucius' wife that is to Bay
no more.
'Tins is the first time 1 luvo eer met any
really great friends of my husband," said
Amelia, pouting out thn tea, "and Jim don't
know 1 lime been looking forwaul to your
coming,"
I jtil V Ooiistauti.i lUclaitd herself dihghtcd
to be there.
She was something of n rattle, was her la
dyship, and not over-particular about being
listened to. This llirdiu had Ioiil' since ascer
tained. At that moment she was dreamily
contemplating Amelia.
"How a man might love that sweet little
woman if she had only got the first chance of
Jilinl" was the mental ejaculation,
A week passed, and llinlie suggested to La
dy Coustsutia that it wai time they took their
leave and went to the house of some other
friends; but Lady Gmttantia was comfortable
and contented lit luxurious AbboUcraitlue,
ud sho would not bo hustled, lliidie must
endure her tuituio a little lunger.
Blie liait tone out mono one lovely Septem
"Impos ible!" repeated he; "impossible that
you can ever care for tin !"
And 1'eicy, whoo be tef in himself was im
mense, looked at her in absolute astonish
moot.
Untie r happier auspice liirdie would have
'an.JiMi: as it was, sho turned from liitnwith
a sort A di'gttst, merely raj iup very quietly:
"I'lenso leave mo; 1 would rather be alono "
A hot flush roso into I'erey's faco as she
spoke. Tins son of the ptople imogined that
Ihrdic, being tho dan h'er of a great house,
was lloiitmg hfin, and lie ris Iveel to be re-
v engeu.
1'oor Ihrdic 1 Of tl t fecial chasm that lay
bctwctti them she n vcr thought; only of how
ulttrly incapable a man like I'erey was to
supplant Lucius in her axlii'iitr heart
JJittirly angry with liiiiitelf for evoking it,
and with lludio for (liering what he wan
pleased to call an insult, he left tho erbor
without another word, walking rapidly along
the path toward the house. Vhea he i
uhott' naif w.y boiiio sound attracted his at
tention, and he looked mound. Lucius, stroll
ing bark, gun in hand and alone, had reached
the arbi r ami stopped: niiothci tccond and ho
passed inside and out oi view.
"So so, my lady I '1'leaso leae me; I
would rather be alone.' Of curc, ou would.
Hut jou will not carry on jour little games at
Ahbotscraitnio if I can prevent it."
In less than five minutes Amelia, forewarn-
d by I'erey, was creeping along through
the brushwood to tho back of tho arbor, to
learn, if possible, herself unheal d. something.
of whit was going on between her husband
and Ihrdic Vcrulam.
"I would never have come if I bad known;
but, h, Lucius, I thought I could havo beino
it U by did you let li r invite us ?"
"My darling, 1 did my utmost to prevent it;
but she was very positive, nnd I web you
bade mo marrv her. and I well. ou see. I
did not think you would care so very much."
"Oh, Lucius, I should have made no eneri
fico for you if I had not really eated, but I
thought I was braver. Il only Lady 0 mtau
t a would ho persuaded to take mo home "
"My poor, poor, sweet love. llirdicl" was
all the m n could murniiir.
Jliero was no consolation to oiler now.
You must not kiss mo. Lucius well, onlv
this once, my love Now go. I cannot heir
it it you stay longer I cannot, indeed. lie
sides, it is not right tc jouistlf or her."
Hi- took Iter in Ins arms for a momen', left
on her lips ono moro forbidden, burning kiss,
nnd wtsgono not toward the boucebut tlown

reigning in wild beauty all around him, he
could fight unchidden with his raging love.
In tho arbor, for a long space, the soft,
buzWiig, lay stiminersountla w.re disturbed
by Hit die's sobs; while outside, with nothing
uciwccn iiiciu out I lie tiiiu, wooden partitions
sat Amelia, on the ground among the under
wood, her lit ad on l.er knees, which were sttr
roun led by hi r clasped bands. She had
heard it all, and was thinking it over Lit by
bit.
Whnt should she do? 'I he future, which

History of the Tomato.
A good many years ago a scamp who had
recently arrived from tho Bermuda Islands,
was sent to York county Pa., jail for some
offense committed against tho aws of the com
mon wealth. He had with him. a few seeds
which ho planted in the r'ch soil of the jail
yard. Before the plants which sprang irom
seed readied maturity he was discharged, and
no one knew the name or nature of them
They grew luxuriantly, bearing fruit of a large
size and unusual appearance. As this strange
fruit ripened, its color changed from green to
a brilliant red, and became an object of won
der and admiration to all the inmates of the
jail. Mrs. Klinefelter, tho lady keeper, cau
tioned all tho prisoners against eating any
of the fruit, as sho was sure it was poisonous,
and l esides that, sho had promised tho man
w ho had planted the seed that sho would en
dotvor to preserve specimens of it for him
should ho return in time.
Just when the fruit vvos fully matured the
Bermuda pri oner revisited the jail and asked
to see tho plant. This request granted, he
next caucu i"r pepper, salt una vinegar, anil
to tl o horror of tho good lady, commenced to
cat of tho supposed poisonous fruit with a rel
ish that astonished the beholders. Afler en
jojingthe strange repast, he informed Mrs.
K. that tho fruit or vegetable was tho tomato
or love apple, and it would be found whole
some and nutritious.
Thu seed of the remaining tomatoes were
carefully preserved and distributed among the
friends nnd neighbors oi the lady, and thus
this now popular esculent wasintrotlucfd into
tho ancient itnd goodly borough of York. For
many jears thereafter it was cultivated as an
ornament rather than for table ue, but by
decrees its merits becan to be moro fullv un
derstood and appreciated, and there, as else
where it gicw into general public favor.
Tho Hop Mamet
There is little to report of tho hop market
in Ivew lork since our last. 'J ho demands
and sales have been light, The country mar
kets are very firm at 'Jo cents per pound for
the best, farmers expect a rise, and ure not
willing to sell even at !." cents. Thu weather
is not favorable to tho hop ards, but we can
not seo any senous injury as jet. E ports
aic very light, the Knglifh market be ug very
dull,
Our resurrected friend, L'nimct Wells, in a
circular, purple and blooming with rejuven
ated life, lepnrts as follows :
The New York market continues to rule
very firm, and one cent higher has been real
ized on all descriptions of hops except year
lings, i'iteifio Ciast and foreign. The im
provement may be directly attributed to an
advance in prices in the interior, nearly every
holder there of choice hops now demanding
'25 cents, and which, in a tew instances, has
been icaliml. Tho advauco tlieio no doubt
is tho result of the bail outlook for thu com
ing crop, though it would seem lather early
in tho season to speculate on such reports,

It way bo new to many of our readers that
in Eastern cities frogs are considered excellent
eating, and that the markets are kept sup
plied for tho demands of hotels and eating
houses. In the city of Boston alone, .hun
dreds of dozens are sold daily. The catching
of those animals give employment to many.
Every well kept hotel is as well supplied with
frogs as with chops and steaks. As a general
thing only the legs are used, and they are said
to ho delicate in flavor. They are caught alive
if possible, and are kept in hogsheads of
water, into w hicli bits of meat and vegetables
aro thrown in order to fatten them. At inter.
.vols they are taken out and allowed to exer
cise within a given tpace, and again put in
clean water till sufficiently fattened for mar
ket. One dealer in Boston keeps a dozen men
employed about the various ponds, shipping
the animals in moss in boxes to the city. The
French have always been called a frog-eating
people; the Germans and Americans have
gradually adopted the taste as well. At first
thought it seems revolting, yet turtles and
eels arc equally as disagreeable to look at,
and are eaten by most people with a relish.
There are but few tiogs in Oregon, so there is
little chance that epicures will call for them
here.
Pout Intelligencer: Delegate Brents has re
