"And you are excessively imperti nent?" Mis.s Lvnde drw her slim figure to itt lull height aud flashed iodigoant eyes upon tbt geutleman oppobite. "And so," said Roger Windom, his maimer assuming sudden warmtb, "you consider me impertinent because, to my eyed, you are the loveliest woman in the world, and. therefore. I have asked you to marrv me, whether my uncle likes it or not?" . Th vonne man was thoroughly in earnest now, and poured out his 'words without reference to rhetoric or euect. "It is precisely that to which I ob ject," interrupted Miss Lynde, imper iouslv. ".Listen to me. You come here where I am employed as governess, os tensibly to visit the lady of the house In reality to see me. You waylay mo on the street when I go out to walk; you an noy me, and astonish Mrs. Burdett by asking for a private interview; and when you tell me, with your usual assurance, that you would like to marry me, al though your uncle, upon whom yon are entirely dependent, has emphatically re fused his consent. You leave my possi ble feelings altogether out of 5'our con sideration, Mr. Windom. You should remember that I have my own dignity to uphold, and that I am not a scheming adventuress trying to thrust myself upon an unwilling family.'V Miss Lynde stopped,breathless,though in her excitement her gray eyes still flashed dangerously. "At least you have been very plain spoken," said Roger Windom, bitterly, standing as he had listened with his black brows contracted and his arms folded upon his breast. "And now, per haps. Miss Lynde, you will permit me to answer yon. I have very little to offer in defense, except that I have been fool ish enough to love you madly, from the moment that I first saw you smile and heard you speak. I have no excuse ready for my reprehensible conduct for waylaying you on the street none for asking you to accept the devotion of my life. Pardon me, that in dwelling on my own selfish hopes, I have failed to consider the'delicacy of your position. But, I will not trouble you further, Miss Lynde, I will bid you good-day." "Stay a moiuent," interrupted the lady, with a detaining gesture. "Mr. Windom, you have shamed me into an apology for my ungracious words," with a smile void of all ooquetry in its perfect fraakness. "You do not know what my life has been," she added, gwctly. "Even as a child I knew what unhappiness meant, for my poor mother married.even as you have wished me to do, kgaiost the wishes of her husband's family. In a year he was tired of her accused her of having spoiled his career; finally, he de serted her. Before my poor mother died, she told me the sad story. I promised her then that I would nejeer marry as she had done; and, so help me heaven! I never will." The beautiful eyes were full f unshed tears as they were raised to Roger Windom face, and the girl's voice trembled slightly as she went on. "I thank you, indeed, for the honor you have done me; I will even acknowIeJge that under different circumstances I might have learned to love you. But, as it is, it is better that we should never meet. Do not come here any more do not see me again, and you will sjod for get that sncb an insignificanc person ex Ms as Janet Lynde." As she ceased speaking, Mis Lynde's pale face was lit up with an April smile, and the hand he had extended in token of farewell was firmly clasped between two larger palms. "I ahull never forget you," said the young man, passionately, his brown eyes looking with a triumphant gladness into hers. "And I shall love you until the hour of my death. This I shall tell my uncle, and if he persists in refusing 10 give his consent, without knowing you, or even so much as bearing yoar name, then henceforth he and I are strangers. For, Janet, what you are not allowed to share, neither will I possess nor enjoy, and so, darling, for a long time, good bve." Before Miss Lynde had quite recovered herself, Roger Windom had kissed the little hand so closely imprisoned in his own, and was gone. For a long time she stood as he left her, with hands hanging helplessly at her side, and her head downcast. She was not a beautiful woman, scarce ly a noticeable one among a number.and yet there was something noble in the poise of the proud head, in the resolute curves of lip and chin. It was a face whose beauty and intelli gence grew upon you as you gazed a face that inspired involuntary confidence and a belief in truth and goodness. "Pray, Mrs. Burdett, who is the lady BViw tuc vt a jr iiuui uoi Mr. Samuel Windom was addressing himself to his hostess, a well preserved matron intent upon being agreeable to her rich guest. "That is Miss Lynde, my governess, really a superior young person, and the children are quite devoted to her, ex plained the lady, with much gracious ness. Janet, in a blue lawn dress and broad brimmed garden hat, was seated upon a rustic bench, ostensibly reading, but in reality gazing out over the fair green meadow that btretched beyond her.while pondered upon the inscrutable ways that had brought Roger Windoin under the same roof with her. The winter was gone and summer had come again, since she and Roger had parted. In a despairing letter of farewell she had learned that he parted with his uncle in anger had gone out into the wide world to work out his fortune, but not without the hope, he added, that some day. he would coma back to seek and claim her. Janet's reverie was interrupted by voices dose upon her, and.rising hastily in her confusion, Miss Linde was intro duced to Mr. Windom. The sunlight and faint blushes mat bar cheek and made her positively beau tiful, for the time, as she stood talking tn thm Rtatelv and ceremonious old gen tleman who had once held her happiness in his hand, and nan reiusea w give n to her. ' Long ago Janet had confessed to her self that Roger Windom's love would have crowned her life with happiness, - a 1 1 1 indeed, l'or lire nau oeen a cQioueus to Janet until the advent of this hand some and ardent lover, and now that he was crone Miss Lvnde had discovered that, after all, she had not been imjer- vious to the influence oi aosorumg love. There was singular mixture of reverence and repugnance toward this proud and self opinionated old man, and Miss Lynde's eyes and lips were very grave as she answered Mr. Windom's courtier like speeches and walked beside him down the trim garden path. ; Evidently he did not know that this was the woman who bad taken his neph ew away from him. Roger had withheld the name and the other had not the curi osity to inquire after it. The fact was sullicient to the inflexible old man. His nephew wanted to form a connection be neath his position in life. The woman had sufficient shrewdness to see that his consent was necessary to make her mar riage to the adopted heir a desirable one. Mr. Windom congratulated him self on his as.uteness, wuen he absolute ly declined this compliance with his hot headed nephew's impassioned and very impatient demands. So the two equally fiery aud obstinate natures had met in weniy combat, and both had been worsted, though each refused to yield. Thev had parted in anger, and Mr. Samuel Windom was trying the effect of change and variety in his now lonely life; for, all unaeknowle ged to himself, he ielt his nephew's defection keenly, and but for his pride would have begged ln'm tn onin o back acrain. In the meantime, Mr. Windom found himself becoming greatly interested in this sen'oiia-Aved Miss Lvnde. Quite un aware, Janet touched the vulnerable spot in Samuel Windom's nature. He fancied her a fair resemblance to his dead wife, and she had not dispelled the illusion by the fashionable airs and . . . . it- ii affectation that young ladies generally lisplay. So Mr. Windom's visit at Mrs. Burdett's elegant country mansion was prolonged from week to week, until that lad v confidentially asserted to her hus band her belief that Mr. Windom in tended marrying their governess; and certainlv the ladv's theory was not with out sufficient basis, for the gentleman's old fashioned and courtly attentions were impressive enough even to unob servant eyes. One morning, as Miss Lynde was leaving her room, she was rather startled by Mr. Windom's servant banding her a letter, with the gentleman's compli ments. "Could it be possible that he was really about to propose to her, as Mrs. Burdett ha J vagueiy intimated?" thought Janet, as she broke the seal in some per turb ition; and this was what she read: "Mr Dear Young Lady. I have con sidered whether I should speak to you upon this subject that lies very near my heart, or trust it to the more dispassion ate medium cf a letter. For I desire that you should weigh carefully the proposi tion I have to make you. I am an old roan, without a tie that is not mercenary. The only relative I had living has tor E&ken me in my old age for some scheming adventuress, who doubtless ex pected to secure my money too. Will you come to me in his stead to brighten and cheer tho remainder of my days? I have not asked you without due re flection and a thorough study of your character, and to remove you from any sense of dependency or from future con tingencies, X touid convey in your name certain bonds and household property, of which we will speak more explicitly if you consent to regard favorably my proposition. In this event I should also desire to adopt you legally as my daughter that you. should assume my ntrr., with all if a privileges, and the as Eurance aguin n plated, that I am acting upon matured inflection and a sincere motive of mutual benefit. Truly yours, Samuel. Windom. Miss Lynde felt extremely perplexed as she refolded her letter. What should she do? Would she be hurting Roger Windom's interest in accepting his un cle's proposals or, rather, would she not be rendering him a service in securing him against others who might be more self interested than she? Altogether it was irresistible. The thought of reigning in the house where Roger had lived perhaps to have him come back some day to find her there awaiting uim. A little later, then, and Janet Lynde beheld herself transformed into an im portant personage, with all the luxuri ous surroundings aud costly accessories that befitted a rich man's daughter. Mr. Windom was kindness himself in bis fitately, old-fashioned manner, and yet Janet was not altogether content. The coming home, to which she had looked forward so hoptfully, had not come to pass, and upon tbe subject of his truant nephew, Samuel Windom spoko never a woid. "And so. Uncle Samuel, you have brought me back all this way to tell me youhave found me a wife? But it i3 out of the question. There is only one woman in the world you could induce me to marry, and she will not marry me." "Wait until you have seen my daughter," said his uncle, with a benign smile. "It is scarcely worth while to quarrel at our first meeting," thought Roger, as he came slowly down stairs as the dinner bell sounded. Then he opened the door and entered the room. Standing before the fire, with her back to him, he saw a slender female figure, with softr brown hair braided smoothly into a crown upon a well shaped head, and her trailing silk robe of pale hue, hanging in statuesque folds about her. She turned slowly, and brought him face to face with Janet Lynde. "Janet 1 you here?" he cried eagerly, his handsome face lighting up ffith a de lighted smile. "I suppose," slowly, as the smile faded, but with her hands still tightly clasped in his, "that you are married?" "No, not married," Janet answered. "At least," he said, drinking in the beauty of her face with hungry eyes "at least, you are more prosperous," with a quick glance at her heavily jew eled hands and the richness of her ivory tinted gown. "Yes, I have been greatly blessed," she answered quietly. ! "And I suppose you are here visiting this paragon my uncle raves about? Janet do you know my uncle sent me a beautiful letter full of the idea of mu tual forgiveness and reconciliation, and when I arrive, full of penitenee and my own shortcomings, behold, it was to marry me to his sew daughter that he wanted me." sas;rjK Aud Rodger Windom looked Infinitely disgusted at the bare idea. "It would be a most desirable mar riage for you," said Janet, demurely looking down. "Do not be unkind," said the young man, with a beseeching accent of entreaty. "For your sake, I went will ing into exile. Already I have been fortunate enough to lay the foundation of a future independence. Once I have gained a secure foothold, promise me, my Janet, that I may come home to claim you for my very own. Will you promise, my darling?" The eager voice had assumed a dan gerous tenderness as the words poured forth, bat the girl only answered, "You have forgotten, Mr. Windom, the obsta cles that existed still remain, do they not? Believe me, the marriage your uncle has planned is in every way suit able, and from tbe bottom of my heart I hope that you will marry your uncle's choice." And Janet was evidently in earnest. "Then I must disappoint you both," said the young man passionately. "Un fortunately I was born with a heart an organ with which,. it appears, you have dispensed. Oh, Janet!" with a despair ing cadence in his tones, "why can ou "not lovs? Why are you so lovely and so cold?" "Roger," the roice had grown sud denly sweet and low "I will confess it now. From the bottom of my heart I do love you. Nevertheless," an arch smile breaking over her face, "I am quite convinced that when you have once stjen Mr. Windom's adopted daughter, you will change your opinion about marrving her." And while Roger with both her bands in his was trying to assure her of the im possibility of such a result, the door opened, and Mr. Samuel Windom's amazed eyes dwelt upon the pretty pic ture before him. "Upon my soul, Roger, you seem to be progressing very well; said ins un cle. as he elevated his eve-glasse3. "And this," said his nephew, triumph antly leading her forward "is the only woman you can induoe me to marry.' And so it was time that Janet suould offer an explanation; the result of which was, that in another month's time there was a magnificent wedding in the Win dom family, and the bride, so charming in her creamy satin and priceless pearls, was given away by Mr. Samnel Windom. The Dry Tortugas. W. R. Prentice of the One Hundred and Sixty-first New York "Volunteers, writing to the San Francisco Bulletin, says: It happened to be my fortune also to be sent to the "Dry Tortugas" Boon after Dr. Mudd, though I had the good for tune to be relieved from duty Bomewhat sooner. This place is a queer one and has seldom been described. The Dry Tortugas (the word, I believe, means turtles) embrace a group of several small coral islands, or keys, lying in the gulf of Mexico, 120 miles west from the southern point of Florida. The largest embraces only a few acres; they are des titute of fresh water, and barren with the exception of a few small mangrove and cedar trees. They were a part of the Florida purchase, and a fort was com menced on Garden Key, one of the larger, by the Spaniards. It is now a first-class brick fort, with two tiers of casements, and mounts more than 300 guns. During the war it was used as a military prison, and many a poor fellow, after a court-martial, heard the words: "Sentenced to the Dry Tortugas for life." These had accumulated till, in the autumn of 1855, more than 300 men of all nationalities and all colors wre gathered there, and for all crimes, from some hasty word, most likely true, said to a subaltern officer, up t o robbery and attempted murder. Our guard consisted of only about 200 men, and there was plenty of work for us to do. The records had been but im perfectly kept, and the term of sentence of some prisoners had long before ex pired. These were hunted out and sent home first. Then 100 or more of the better men were recommended for par don, which was freely granted by Presi dent Johnson, for he was in a uardot ing mood at that time. But the main interest centered around the four conspirators, Mudd, Arnold, Spangler and O'LouRh? iin. They were supposed to be terrible fellows, ready to cut our throats at any tsme on a moment's notice. Dr. Mudd was the central figure. He was a fair haired man of good size and rather pre possessing appearance. His one all adsorbing thought was that ho was the victim of great injustice, and whenever he could gain a listening ear, into it he always poured his griefs. He was de tailed as general nurse in the hospital, and did good service there, till iu an evil day be attempted to escape by secreting himself on board a steamer. Of course he was found, sent back in disgrace, and afterward kept in solitary confinement. Arnold was a young man not more than twenty four or twenty-five hand some, highly educated and refined, and retiring in his manners. Ho said little, never complained, but felt his disgrace most keenly. He was kipt as a clerk in the Provost Marshal's office, and many a description or muster-out roll in his beautiful handwriting went to Washing ton. He had the ability and ought, to day, to be taking good care of himself somewhere. Spangler, the stage carpen ter of Ford's theater, was a jolly Dutch man, and, to all appearauce, as happy there as mortal man ever is. How well I remember his portly form, bustling about hi3 work, the happiest looking man in the fort. Lastly was poor O'Loughlin, an Irishman, I think a shoemaker by trade. He had left a fam ily in Washington, and oould not bear up under his punishment. He drooped from the day he reached the place, and died socn after I left. I have to-day a letter from Mudd and one from Arnold, written after I had left the service, asking my aid in procuring some mitiga tion of their punishment. While I did not pity them as I did the more than 150 soldiers sent there for the most trifling breaches of military law, I can still see how they were all, perhaps, more unfor tunate than criminal. Indian Wood-Curvinjr. There ia no reason why tbe skill and fancy of Indian wood -carvers should not be known abroad by large ornaments suitable or architectural purposes as well as by drawing room ornaments. A country may ba rich in wit and wealth, and yet inherit no birthright of its own in the great genealogy of artistic style, and need not think it shame to go abroad in search of adornments for its necessa rily eclectio architecture. There is much that the Indian craftsman can do which cannot, to put it in homely phrase, done any where else under heaven for lore or money. The best that he is capable of has scarcely by this generation been asked for. And when hum bly anxious to please, he has, with great pains and Jabor, produced his copy of European work, we turn and abuao him for his misdirected industry. But is the fault his? He is the least speculative of mortals, and only makes what will sell. He is innocent of many of the fine senti ments attributed to him, and his whole being is by no means centered in poetry and metaphysics; but he has wonderful hands, and is born heir to fine decora tive traditions. In this matter of carven wood-work skillful artists could find many details which might be built into modern domestic constructions with ad mirable effect. An interesting experi ment was tried recently by Mr. Lock wood De Forest, of New York, who, dur ing a recent protracted visit to this country, organized a band of the wood carvers of Ahedabad. Among the works wrought by these may be instanced copies of the beautiful windows in per forated sandstone of the Bhudder, which may be considered as types of the best qualities of Indian design. Such demands made by artists and those ho care for art can be fully met, and would do more than anything else to convince the peo ple of the folly of neglecting their own plastic forms. Harper's Magazine. "No U.e "I don't believe tnat there is any use .in dping all these long examples in division. I have done two or three of them, and I know just as well as though I had worked them all out on my slate." "But practice makes perfect, Fred," was the answer of a schoolmate. "I am as perfect aa I want to be in long division, anyhow," the boy said in rep'y. When examination day came, Fred failed in coming up to the required standard of "passing" in all his fctudies. He failed in long division. "There is no use in studying every moment of time; 1 must rest occasion ally," he said again, later in the winter. So he failed again, and this time it was in all his studies. In two or three vears Fred went away from home to learn a trade, lor a time he did well, but one day he said to himself: "There is no use of my working every moTaent. And from that time he be gan to lose the confidence of his em ployer. "I don't think you are the right boy for me, or else you are not learning the right trade," his employer said to him one day; and so Fred was discharged. Fred went into business for himself, and for a while he prospered. But, as before, he said: "Thera is no use in my applying my self so closely to my business," and the result was that he failed utterly of tuc ceeding in it. So it was all through life; he failed in everything he undertook, and his "no use" reasoning ruined hira. Don't reason in that way, boyB, for there is use in doing everything well, and in sticking to it. Leslie's Sunday Magazine. Fashions for tienllcmeu. Linked sleeve buttons are the thing.

Miss Lizzie Altweis occupied the bed room on tae second floor of an old fash ioned gable roofed two-stcry attio and basement house on Eldridgo street. New York. A little Maltese cat, the property of tbe landlord, was a constant visitor at Miss Altweis' room, and at niijht she would often take it in her arms when she retired. The cat wus remarkable for two things. First, its forepaws were adorned with double tho number of claws usually allotted to cats; and second, its wonder ful intelligence was a subject of frequent comment. Wednesday uight when Miss Altweis retired, the cat snuggled close up to her. About 4:30 o'clock Thursday morning the lodger was awakened by a pricking sensation on her cheek, and found that the cat was clawing her. She shook it off.when the animal jumped to the floor and ran to the door of the room, at which it began scratching, mewing loudly the while. Supposing it wantad to get out, Miss Altweis rose and going to the door opened it. As soon as she did so a heavy volume of thick smoke poured into the room, almost stifling her. The house was on fire, and in a short time was burned to the ground. The inmates escaped by leaping from the windows and clambering along the eaves. The cat's timely warning saved eleven lives. Senator Fair's Sew Girl. Now that Senator Fair is a free man, rumor has it that he will marry Miss Annie Carpenter, who became notorious in a divorce caseseveral years ago. W. F. Smith, a well known oculist, became enamored with Annie, and took her to Arizona, where,-through the influence of "Silver-tongued" Fitch, the uncle of Annie, be obtained a divorce. When he returned to San Francisco with tho girl his wife bad tho divorce set aside, and she was allowed $100 monthly alimony, and ho was not permitted to marry. Smith, however, remained Annie's friend until she captnred the senator, and he has made a perfect fool , of himself over her. She is a sort of female dude, small, aesthetic, but plump, with a doll face, China blue eyes and crushed strawberry hair, possessodof languishing sweetness, but no particular accomplishments. She has turned the heads of several men. Fair is still worth $10,000,000, and A&tnie has drawn a capital prize. Mrs. Craycroft, the sister of Sir John Franklin, has died at Dorking at the age of 90. She spent the greater part of her fortune on the expeditions which were sent to the Arctic rogiens in search of the famous explorer. kilMven's YaittUe tuarry Toolli Psl.
