"I will mate no terms with him. : What have I to do with hia wife and children and altered fortunes?'

' " I onlV thought that some consider ation should be shown him on account "Do not trouble yourself to think, sir; I will do all the heaawork there is re auired for this establishment," and with those impressive words Mr. Goswell took up his hat and coat and left the of fice. Marcus Goswell was described in the New York directory a3 a general agent. He reallv was a monev lender and bill- broker, and one of the hardest old men who ever dishonored their gray hairs by deeds of rapacious usury. The person to whom he had been talk ing was William ilariaxa,niscnieioierK, a genial, generous young man of thirty, with as iittleaptitude for the life he was leading as was possible to imagine. The unfortunate person of whom they had been speaking had been a friend of Harland' once, but "Will Harland and Albert Grosvenor were not men of the same mould, and latterly their commun ications had been few and far between I. Gerald Wmterley, was a young man at the time, assisting Harland in keep inff Mr. Goswell's books. The offices o f Goswell & Co. (the Co. being a mvth) were situated in an old house near the general postofSce. They were three in number. An outer one for general business, a middle one for clients to wait in and an interior one, sacred to the use of the great human spider. Mar cus himself, in which he wove his web of iniquity" round the struggling humanity who unfortunately fell into his merciless meshes. It was late when old Goswell left, and as I boarded with Will Harland and his dear little wife in their cottage near Brooklyn, I waited for him till his work was done. Being fatigued with a good deal of running about that day, I went into the middle office and threw myself on a sofa which was put there especially for. the comfort of lady clients. Will seemed a long time at his work, and once I pesped into the room and found him lying back in his chair in deep meditation, i Knew now tusiasieiui ins task was to him, and patiently left him to his musings. I e veu closed my eyes and fell into a pleasant doze. Suddenly a light noise awakened me, aflTd looking up, I saw the blind of the glass partition between the two rooms, the shadow of a man with big luxuriant mustache and a long, pointed beard. It was gone in an instant, and I was assured that it was all a dream, es pecially as I opened the door and found Will alone in the room. We had been working late and early, and therefore I was not surprised to hear Mr. Harland Buy : "I do believe I have taken forty winks too. This night work makes one so un commonly tired." 'Are you ready now ?' "Yes, in one moment." He arose and carefully began to ar range his papers. Suddenly he, made a start. "Wnere is Grosvenor'a bill?" We looked everywhere for it, but could not find it, and finally Will came to the conclusion that Mr. Goswell had forgotten to give it to him before he left. On the following day we were at the office betimes. Goswell had given Har land the bill,' and was furious at its loss. He discharged him on the' instant, and threatened him with all the persecution his small nature was capable of. "The law is too tedious," he said, sneeringly. "And at the most it is a case under the bailee act, but I will be even with you." That evening I hurried home to find that tho Harlands had suddenly left the cottage and gone, no one knew where. A letter for 'me, left in the charge of a lady, containing a brief apology for their dis appearance, was all. Three weeks passed by. I had been promoted to Harland's position, which I only took, thinking that it might be the means of me rendering my friend service, for I never for a moment doubted his ita- uucttuuu. One day when I was alone, there came a tap at the door, and a dainty little fig ure stood before me. Long golden hair wastoBsed in wild profusion over her shoulders. . She could not be more than seventeen years of age, and looked as far out of character in that musty old office as a fresh rose in the button hole of a sweep. "Where's Will ?" she asked, as her big eyes opened wider in wonder. 'Will? What Will?" "Why, my William HarlaDd, stupid. What other Will would I want?" I stood in blank dismay. Her Will I Then there was a woman in the case after ail, and for the first time doubts of Har land's innocence , flashed across my mind. "Mr. Harland," I said severely, "is, I suppose, with his wife and little boy. He has gone away from here." "Gone!" ' , ViJO , OUU AAA OJ X lOJk WUU YOU are, Miss?" "I ? why, I'm Ethel, of course." "His sister from Ohio? I have often heard him speak of you," said I, consid erably relieved. "And you are Gerald Winterly?" "lam.", ' And then I found myself breaking to her, as gently as I could, the terrible news of her brother's trouble. The young lady was in a terrible dilemma, as she had come to New York intending to V slay at Will's house. Luckily I had found a pleasant boarding place; aud it did no(t take me long to escort the charm ing yo'ung lady there, and leave her in obargq of tha landlady. When I got to know Ethel . Harland wdj'o iotl&iatejy, I found that uadss 4I the tinsel show of childish beauty, there lay a spirit strong to act and fnll of de termination. - She told, me that she and her widowed mother lived alone; that they had not heard from her brother for some time; that her mother must be kept in igno rance of the catastrophe which had be fallen them; and that, come what would, she, Ethel Harland, was resolved upon finding Will's address and clearing him of the stigma the unfortunate inoident had left on his reputation. But, although she remained in New York three weeks, nothing could be ac complished; and I took the heart-broken girl to the depot, and saw her off by the train for her Ohio home. Weeks passed by and nothing occurred to clear up the mystery. Then came a long letter from Ethel, suggesting that I follow old Goswell home and see what sort of surroundings he had at hia nn fireside. xl Xibuei iiau iom me to undertake a journey to Siberia I had should have done so without Question inc. for mv heart had long gone out to this sensible little winsome maiden. Accordingly the next evening I dacrcraA ine iootsteps oi my employer, and fol lowed him to a suburban village where he was met at the depot by a bright lit tie girl, almost as pretty as Ethel her sen, m a pony pnajton. I Luckily for me they did not drive verv fast and I had no difficulty in keeoing pace with them until they came to a large old-fashioned mansion which was evidently their home. i One thing that surprised me was the lavish affection exhibited by the young jady towards old Uoswell it did seem so jabsurd, anybody, being particularly fond pi mm. I All this I dutifully wrote to my lady love, ana cue reply was a telegram say ing tnat Jtnel would be xn New York on the succeeding day. i She came, more beautiful, if possible, tnan ever. Jtier nrst words were I "Gerald, I think I know where Will and Rose are. I clipped this advertise ment from the Daily Tribune," j .mis reaas: -a young man or some ability seeks a position in a counting- bouse. Salary not so much an obiect a immediate employment. Address Gnl- lelanis, 1787 i)'ord street, Brooklyn, N. Y." "Gulielanis is Latin or something for William," she added, "aDd I know he used the same sobriquet before on one occasion. "And what are yon going to do? "I am going to see Mr. Goswell's charmingyounglady. She has influence with him. She is young, impressionable and, 1 am sure, generous; and I feel sat lsned mat x can enlist ner services in making that horrid old man withdraw the imputation he has cast on my broth er s conduct." "And when will you go?" "This Very evening," said the girl, de terminedly, "but on this occasion simply to reconnoitre the enemy s outposts, To-morrow I will pay her a visit when her father or grandfather, or whatever relation the old Turk may be to her, is gone to business." It was a beautiful moonlight night as Ethel and I stood in front of Mr. Gos well's mansion. They were Bitting in front of the house, the old man, the girl, and a young man, whom we could not recognize in the dim light. Presently they went aside,- and the next minute the lamps were lit in a room on the second floor, and the blinds were drawn down. Suddenly I gave a start. "Ethel," I said, "watch that shadow on the blind the shadow of a man with a big mustache and a long pointed beard. As I live that is the shadow I saw on the blind of the partition the night Grosven or s bill was lost. I had told Ethel of this little incident before, but she had, as I had mvself, given it no significance; but now she was ? aieri to its importance. "Gerald," she said, "are you sure? See, he comes to the window again. Iiook !- isit he?" As surely, l replied, "as l now stand beside you in this lane." "Then we most act at once." "How?" "Do not distract mo with questions. Uome along. She went boldly up to the door of the house, rang the bell and asked to see Mr. Goswell. Just then the fair girl we had seen, came tripping down the stairs. .With a qniet, lady-like dignity Ethel asked for a few minutes interview,which was smilingly accorded. With many tears my darling told her tile from beginning to end, and before she was half-way through, the two girls sat with locked hands, and I could easily tell that the fair stranger was won com pletely over to her side. "It is his grandson," she said. "We are oousins. My grandfather's great hope is that we shall marry, but that could never be. His life is a bad one, I am afraid, but it is wrong for us on Buch a trivial coincidence as this to assume that he is guilty in the'present case. one had hardly finished spea&ing, when the door opened, and Mr. Goswell and bis grandson entered. A frown darkened the old man's face as he saw me. "You here? What means this?" "This lady," I said, pointing to Ethel, "is William Harland s sister, "Indeed!" " William Harland did not purloin Albert Grosvenor s bill. "You say so." "I know it." "Then," perhaps, you know who did? "I do," I said, looking full at his grandson. "I saw the thief in the very act. There he stands. It was a bold coup, but it told. The young man seemed paralyzed. His lips moved as though he would speak, but he failed to give utterance to a word. "Yes, there he stands, Mr. Goswell. He took the bill when William Harland, worn out with hard work in your ser vice, desk. "I man, fell asleep for a moment over his Let him deny it if he dare." will not deny it," said the young passionately; "this accursed act has been the bane of my life. I cannot sleep for thinking of it. It it killing me." "Oh, Walter, this from you!" sighed the old man; "but go on. Even now. if there is an excuse for your wickedness, I win tnans: liod lor it. "There is none," was the stern reply. "I owed money to Grosvenor which I could not pay. He told me of this bill, and I promised to secure it for him. On that fatal night I went to the office. meaning to appeal to Mr. Harland and enlist his aid in procuring time for its payment, when I hoped I should be able to meet it. As I opened the door I I found him asleep and the bill lving be side him. The temptation was too great; X IOO K 11. "It is too bad, too bad!" moaned the old man. . - - "It is. indeed." said Ethel, spiritedly. "but you are not thinking of my Will at all. Vouu ymUy U nil saUUoad. Think of hia hours of misery and dis grace, his broken-up home, his wife's distress, his " "Oh, child, you do not know," inter rupted Mr. Goswell, "how much or what we are thinking. What will you have? We are now at your mercy." restitution of my brother s good name, and a written apology for the base falsehood that has clouded his life with misery." "And no punishment for the guilty one?" Ethel looked for a moment at the face of the young man beside her.then gently murmured: "No, Mr. Goswell, none. God has taken his punishment into higher hands than onrs. My brother, if he were here. would say with me, Let him go in peace, and sin no more." Mechanically the man of business called for paper aad wrote a full retrac tion of every charge against his late olerk, and an , humble acknowledgment of the wrong done him, offering to sup plement it with any monetary considera tion William Harland might choose to demand. i With this we took our leave. Bright and early the next morning we were at Ford street, Brooklyn, and sure enouga found the wanderers. What they had suffered I need not tell, suffice it to say Ethel came in for her share of thanks and blessings, and your humble servant was by no means forgotten in the gen eral rejoicing. Will Harland, my brother-in-law, has now a good business of .his own.

A North Carolina Story. One of the most remarkable maladies known to the medical profession of this state is now puzzling the doctors here. This is that ot A. M. Wilhelm, aged about eighteen. Jf an ordinary bathing tub is filled with ice cold water and the boy s feet placed in it, in less than six minutes the water is made to come to a boiling heat. The boy suffers the most intense agony, and has to be kept in cold water nearly all the time. As soon as one ves sel containing water becomes too hot for use it is replaced by another, and the change is continued as rapidly as the water becomes heated. Morphine is used in treble doses, but has but little effect upon the patient. He has been suffering with the remark able disease about a month, and during that time has consulted and been treated by the ablest physicians in the state. It was caused, it is thought, by being ter ribly racked by a steam engine, upon which he got to adjust some portion of the machinery. The throttle valve was in some way moved and a full head of steam put on. The motion cf the engine jammed the boy so as to derange his nervous system and leave him in the hor rible condition he now finds himself. He is to be examined by some physicians from a distance. The case is attracting very general attention. The Tenor and the Italian Dade. A curious instance of Italian manners and customs is reported from Milan. M. Prevost, the tenor at the Dal Verm Thea ter, was at a caffe with a ladv recently, when he observed a young man staring at her in the offensive way so common among young Italians who wish to be considered ladv-killers. M. Prevost re sented the offense to this extent: he boxed the young man's ears. When the next night M. Prevost appeared on the stage he was greeted with a storm of yells and hisse. The second tenor then came forward and expressed the hope that as M. Prevost was not an Italian he might perhaps be excused if he did not quite understand Italian ways, but the audi ence went on yelling as before. A police officer came forward and announced that the performance must oease and he was hissed. "The second tenor made another attempt in vain. The police officer tried again, but without suocess. Finally M. Prevost himself appeared and protested that he had no hostile feelings toward Italy ; that Frenoh and Italians had fought side by side, and that he had only wished to give a lesson to a youth who had acted offensively toward a lady. This little apology was favorably received and the representation was resumed. Pall Mall Gazette. .. An Unfortunate Waltz. At the last State ball at St. Petersburg the Empress honored a young officer by allowing him to waltz with her. The gentleman was reputed a famous dancer, but, somehow, on this occasion his skill seemed to have deserted him. The Em press and he ie)l heavily to the floor. Thereon the Emperor ran across the room and anxiously inquired from his wife, who had risen, whether she was hurt. The Empress replied that she had not suffered, but she took the arm of her husband and went for a time to a retir ing room alloted to her. Meanwhile the chagrin of the unhappy officer was visi ble to all the guests. By and by the Empress returned., and. seeing the dis tress of her late partner, went to him and insisted on his dancing another waltz with her.' This time there was no accident, and the unlucky incident was forgotten in the gracious kindness of the popular Czarina. He lay upon his dying bed, and as the soft-beating pulse and quick gasps for breath denoted approaching dissolution, he softly murmured to the sorrowing relatives gathered round: "Do not lay me down by the rippling brooklets, lest babbling lovers wake me from my dreams; nor in the beautiful' cemetery on Cypress Hill, lest sight-seers talking over the epitaphs disturb me; but let my sleep be under the counters of merchants who never advertise. This is indeed a place which surpasseth all understand ing, and a deep sleep on which neither toe buoyant footfalls of youth.the weary buuihb oi age, nor me uusy uum oi com merce ever intrude.

Giddleton, who knows that her husband never shakes dice for drinks and that he is strickly sober, was awak ened the other night by her Mr. Giddle ton, who in his sleep exclaimed: "Three trays to beat! ' Horse on me! "What do you mean?" asked his wife, shaking him. ; "What does who mean?" "You." "What about?" "Why, you cried out 'Horse-on me!" "That's all right. I merely had a nightmare."

Already these proprie tors who are personally farming many acres of their own unsaleable hind, ex press themselves as well satisfied with the result. The laborer will necessarily rise in importance with the departure of the farmer, will probably obtain an acre or-twoof land and will find his condition materially improved.
