R*> she said: “It. make* no difference to me which I dance with first, but if it is of so much ac­ count to you draw cuts.” They did so, and Christoph was the lucky one. While they were settling the matter Katie looked on with apparent indifference, but her heart beat fast under hfir txxlice, and when it was decided sb® almost unconsciously smiled with evident pleasure. Lars saw it, and from that day jealousy began to take root deeper and deeper in his heart, and there was no lack of occa­ sion to develop it. Margrit Hermenseu, Katie** best friend, went to th® altar to plight lier faith. Katie was chosen to cany the wreath, accotnpani *d by Christoph. When Lars beard of it lie opposed it vehemently. Both young men grew violent, and onlv Katie’s prewen -e of mind iu declaring she did not wish to go to the wedding prevented per baps the very worst outbreak of Lar/ pa- sionate storm of anger. After that the two avoided «acb other as miK*b as possible, but •ought to be with Katie. Ea*-b knew that th<- çtDu teTed ths girl, aud beta felt secret;; conscious to whom Katie’s heart inclined. Cnristopb, the calmer und more self possessed, felt a silent, blissful happiness taking posses­ sion of his heart when the girl lked at liimj with her blue eyes so sweetly and kindly.' Lars, more vehement, believed at times that4 Kutio loved him, her manner was always so cordial. But, again, wbeu he saw her with ChrLtoph, a voice within told him that he was not the favored one, and ho suffered bitter torment. So it bud gone on till th® evening when the young fishermen returned together from the shore. Christoph’s heart beat last at the quiet, peaceful scene in old Mason’s cot­ tage, and it drew him back with irresistible power to leave a greeting for the beloved one But after he bail entered the hall, in bis effort to close the door, so violently flung open by th® storm, he suddenly became conscious of Katie in his arms. And while it raged and stormed without bo kissed her, and in wild happiness he whispered: “Katie, do you love me?” She did not answer, but her lips pressed his. Thenext morning Lars stood on the shore mending liis boat, when Rob Steffel came by. “You are early, though you came home late. Were you with your sweetheart?” Lars looked at him, red with anger. He struck the woian Sibyl,” gifted with prophetic insight aud tall and erect like a strong and | graceful African palm tree. She would do . more housework of the heaviest kind than ■ two ordinary women, and yet l>e one of the • best watchers by a sickbed at night. A sick ! man she lifted to the best place on his bed as easily and tenderly as a mother would lift her baby, und the touch of her hand smooth­ ing (he pillow and stroking the fevered brow was health and quiet, while her wail, “There, honey, you’s easier now,” had a strange power to give ease and calm. Untrained in grammar or rhetoric, never able to read or write, there was a quaint dis­ regard for set rule of s;»eech in her public and private discourse, but. no fine rh.-torician coulent some time in Washington, and about midwinter learned ] that Sojourner Truth was in the city. Had I not known her ways this would have been a surprise, for the long winter’s journey 1 from her home nt Battle Creek, in the cen­ ter of Michigan, was a serious undertaking for a woman near her 100th birthday. But 1 knew that she always went “as the good spirit told her,” and that some strong feeling of duty to lie done led her to tho capital city. Her wav opened, not long after, for some good service among the freedmen at the hospitals. I soon went to see her and she said, with great earnestness: °I believe de good Lord sent you, for you are de very one 1 wanted to see.” Asking what was specially wanted, she said: “I want to see President Grant, and you can get me there.” I told her that was easier said than done, but I would try, und the next day wrote a note to him, suying she wished to see him at some fit time, took it to the White House, sent it in to the business office, and a verbal message soon came back to me in the waiting room that any morning would suit. In a few days Sojourner, with two ladies, a venerable friend of Quaker birth and my­ self, went to meet the appointment and I sent in a card, “Sojourner Truth and friends,’’ which brought back in a half hour a messen­ ger to escort us to President Grant’s office. He sat at the end of a long table in the center of the room, with documents piled before him, and just closing an interview with other persons. I stepped forward to introduce the party and to bring Sojourner beside the table. She had met President Lincoln, und he, u born Kentuckian, could call her “Aunty” in the old fumiliur way, while Grant, though kindly, was reticent, and all was not quite easy at fii*st. But a happy thought camo to her. Not long before the president bad signed some bill of new guarantees of justic« to tho colored people. S.ie spoke of this with gratitude; the thin ice broke and words came freely from both, for Grant waa an easy am fluent talker, but had the wisdom of silence until the fit time came to sp?ak. Standing there, tall and erect while stirred in soul by the occasion, her wonderful eyes glowed as she thanked him for his good deeds and gave wise counsel in her own clear and quaint way. FINE AND SIMPLE DIGNITY. Her words came in tones full of deep j>ower and tenderneM, and ho listened with great in­ terest and respect, and told her that he “hoped always to be just to all und especially to see that the poor and defenseless wer< fairly treated.” His voice and manner toL bow bis heart was touched, and his softenet tones showed how “the bravest are tho ten derest.” Hhe told him how his tasks am trials were appreciated and bow much faitl was placed in bis upright doing of duty t< the oppressed, and be quietly, yet with mucl> feeling, expressed the hope that he might over be wise and firm and never forget the inalien able rights of all Only great souls can comprehend true greatness, and these two undeistood each other. Nothing in the illustrious career of Gen. Grant gave me a fuller *ras* of Ids largeness of heart and mind than his unpre­ tending simplicity and appreciative r**pect*in this interview, while the fine and simple dig­ nity of Sojourner Truth also gave me a fuller sense of her largo womanhood. Hhe said tn him: “I have a little book here that I call my book of life. A good many names ar® in it, aud I have kept a place on the sain® page with Lincoln's for you to write your name.” He 1 eplied: “I am glad to put it there,” and wrote his autograph in her little book. Rhe then said: “It will do me good for you to have my photograph," and with evident pleasure he thanked her and selected on® from several laid on the table. The conversation hud lasted beyond the usual time, others stood by, waiting their turn, yet listening with great inlerest. and the fit timo ram® to leave. Th® president rose from his chair and gave Sojourner hi* hand with a parting word of good will. This mutual respect ami appreciative sympathy between the president of a great republic and a woman born a slave and represent!ug an oppressed jx'opi* was admirable and inspir­ ing—G. B Stebbins. Strange Control of Vlori«®«. Hine® boyhood I ba/e always had a strange control of borsrw.

A constant- roador of The Globo has writ ten to know something of Charlotte Corday. and as the letter has been referred to me, 1 take great pleasure iu stating briefly, anc in glowing terms, what I am able to recall of this eccentric young woman's life. Charlotte Corday was born on a foreigi strand, now known as Normandy, named ir honor of the large speckled gray horst» with thick, piano legs and gross necks, tbal come from there to engage in hauling beci wagons in the land of the free and the houw of the brave. Here Charlotte was born in the year 1703 Like the record of Mr. Spartacus, who, ii 8i>eaking of bis own experience, said that hb early life ran quiet as the clear brook bj whWh he sported, the childhood of Char lotto Corday was almost devoid of interest, being monotonous and unanimous, as ft sell made man said to me not long since, refer ring to the climate of the south. She early turned her attention, however, to the matter of patriotism, hoping to ob tain a livelihood in the patriot line some day. She investigated the grievances ol France, and gave her attention almost ex clusively to the invention of some way bj which to redress these grievances. Hom« of them had not been redressed for oentu ries, ami they ought to have been ashamed of themselves. According to all accounts, the grievance» of France were, at that time, in full drew and short sleeves, ready for the ball t< open. It fell to crowded for cemetery ronin. Charlotte apologized for disturbing th# great journalist at such a tim*, and remark­ ing thnt we were having rather a backward spring produced a short stab knife with which she cut a large overcoat button hole in th® able journalist’s thorax. Kha then passed inte th* office, and leav­ ing word to have her paper stopped sb« went to the executioner.

The winds are peculiar, too; I never saw any­ thing like them anywhere else. They are what you might call discriminating breezes. I’ve seen a man go aloug the street, and it would be blowing a hurricane on one «ide of him; and on the other side it would be a dead calm. I’ve seen a mule stand bra***d against the wind blowing behind her, with her tail blown rigid up straight) and one ear put away ahead of her nose, while the ear on the other side would be in a natural, calm posi­ tion, and that side of the boast would be sweating! It will take the skin off one side of your face and not touch the other. I saw a man with whiskers get one side of his face shaved bv a wind like that, as clean us any barber con hi do it. A small boy and a dog were walking up the street with him at the time, and they each lost on« ear. I’ve seen a man lose one leg of his pants and a coat tail, ami get his hat knocked all over on one side. They don’t do any particular daniogtf, those winds, but they are ns peculiar ns can be!”— Descendant ot S. VV. in Sait I Ake Tribune. The Wolf aud the Peasant—-A Fable. A peasant who was on watch while bi, flock of goats were feeding discovered a wolf prowling about and fired upon him. The wolf, who narrowly escaped being hit, ad­ vanced in great indignation and demanded: “By what right do yon fire upon me with­ out having seen me commit some overt act?" “My dear sir,? replied the peasant as he proceeded to reload his guu, “the best time to fire a! a wolf is before he has killed your goats.” MORAL.
