That they were laboring under some strong excitement was very appar ent. They passed, without pause, direct ly to Mr. Newton’s side, and the eldest, laying a trembling hand on bis arm, said: "What is it all, father? We called at Roseville and were told that the ladies were engaged, bnt whilo we stood on the steps receiving this message we could not fail to hear Mrs. Le Barron using the most violent and abusive language to her husband, and, oh, father, she coupled your name with injustice and dishonor, employing the most bitter terms, which she surely intended ns to hear.” “Both accusations aro utterly false,” indignantly replied George. “Oh, we of course were sure of that," answered Rose, seating herself on her father’s knee; “bnt tell us directly, papa, for that you and mother are greatly dis turbed about something is very evident." this hasty descent nnd all tills ttdk about learning the use of hands and feet, eh? I fear that he will rebel ut the two years' probation yet to be passed and spirit you off to that southern Eden he so enthusi astically portrays to prevent you from spring with us the changes we antici pate.” Mr. and Mrs. Newton tried by a warn ing lcok unseen b-.- Rose to stop George's allusion to Grenville, but soon felt that he was acting wisely. A word apparent ly lightly spoken might awaken a train or thought that would in some degree Si her for the first shock should her ed prove unworthy. ashes! This sad disappointment in the home he had so fondly pictured and the , little satisfaction found in the wealth | and high position gained by scarcely hbnest means r-called his jiarents’ efforts to inculcate tr<u> principles, which, had they been adopted, might even then , have shielded him from the sorrows, al ready foreshadowed, in tlie early period of his middle life. When at last Mr. Newton accepted him as a partner, how firmly did lie vow to his conscience never again to indulgoin the dangerous experi ment of unscrupulous speculation! The strict prohibitions against any sucli at I tempts. which were a part of the rules of Mr. Newton's business, helped to con firm him in these wise resolutions. Once secure of the partnership, he most anx iously strove to conceal from Mr. New ton some of the business transactions of his earlier life, well assured if once known iris continuance in his present position would be of very short dura tion. For years he had stood well with the community. A few whispers of his for mer "haste to be rich" readied Mr. Newton, but after a strict yet quiet in vestigation he found no cause to believe the rumors or withdraw liis confidence, and the reports gradually died away.

Hutton reminds us that the marching value of ail army is that of its worst regiments rather than of its best, for we cannot afford to march so as to outmarch our worst regiments nnd thus deplete them of their men. The rate of inarching laid down in tho infantry drill, 1802— that is, 120 paces of thirty inches per minute—gives a rate of 3 miles 720 yards per hour, or including live min utes’ halt, 3 miles, 220 yards per 55 minutes. This pace is, in the opinion of this ofllcer, obviously too great for the movement of larger units ef com mand than a battalion, or perhaps of a weak brigade without baggage train. It is universally accepted by continen tal authorities that the rate for march ing under campaigning conditions is two and one-half miles per hour, in cluding five to ten minutes halt. The French, who have the tradition of being the best marchers in Europe, lay down in precise form the rate of march for their infantry at 2.48 miles per hour, including tun minutes' halt, giv ing therefore, 2.48 miles in fifty min utes, or 87.5 yards per minute.
