Surrounded by Sprin(s
of the purest mountain water, en tilling

Jd in tSh-qirJkf Lwbrwroom, tare
month after Miss Daly had becu in
Battleton, and after she bad said, "Xo,
thank you," to half a dotcn pairs of
Courvoisier's glovos, of whiob be had
begged her aeoeptaooe ; "she isn't like
anybody else 1 ever knew at the Jnne
Uo. Polly Racket would ntk lis of
her for fun, bnt she an awfully niot
girl somehow. She isn't silly, either,
or she'd fancy I was going to aok her to
marry. She' a sharp, elevor little wom
an, pon my soul, but I can't make her
eC And that' deuoed odd, too, see
ing what a lot of girls hare been alwaya
running after me."
It was not odd, bat young Todd was
beyond tbo disco vary of tbe aolntion ti
the mystery ; his self-ooaplaisanoe stood
in the way, and the girls who ran after
him were of the ordinary olass of high
stoppers, whose mission ra lifo waa to
be always running after somebody.
Evoa in his own sphere, acd wherc the
exact amoant of his inooni and his ex-
pentstions wore kauwn, young Todd was
sought and flattered by some of "tho
slock and sliiniup creatures of tho chase :
but young Todd never propesed, and
had been always happier and mors at
his ca?o at the station buflot, or in the
strojts when tho shop girls wcra going
homo. Happier, till Miss Paly appear
ed ; then it vra all over ttith !ii:u
his nonohalant airs aud grins and grim-
oe. Ho strolled in anl out no more
ia his old patronising way ; ho eame in
oarly, and stopped as a rulo all day ; he
wai tho slave of ths refreshment count
er, tho ghost of his former sa!f, the talk
of the tittlo town whore everybody talk
ed. His mother oondcccnded to ak a
few questions of him at last, and to tell
him what tho world is saying: ho laugh
ed at her questions as irrelevant, and
the fhoeking expression he used as re
garded the world needs no repetition in
i these virtuous pages. His sisters eat tr
ued him and Lis tastes, anci bo "care it
them hot,' as ho afterward expressed
himself t,i a friend, for meddling with
his affairs acd viui ui.lu't concern
horn. Ho never interforvJ between
them and their larki with the curates,
did he ! Let him alone, and I10M let
them alone; nobody need bo atraid ho
was going to mako a fool of himself, or
throw himself away; Lo knew that ho
was about well enongh. Trust him.
Bnt nobody trusted him any more
fur this declaration, and the homo of the
Todds became 'shallow-land, in the
midst of whieh much suspicion and un
charity and conspiracy wero brooding.
They affected to lot himt alone, and ho
let them alone according to his nsual
way whiob was very muoh alona in
deedbut they wrote long letters and
urgent letters to TJnole John, the main
stay of the fauily, trustee, executor,
' nf ,,
man of war in
the Indian service, and they begged
very earnestly for Uncle John to take
tbo matter up, as tbe whole affair was
becoming very serious indeed. They
had no influence over Edwin young
Todd was Kdwin ; he was his own mas
ter, aad they wore desperately afraid of
what would oomo of it They had been
afraid also to telt Unolo John before ;
they did not like intruding upon his
studies, his new work on " l'ortifiea
tkns aud Fireworks," his new ohargc
rod hot and slashing, against tho secre
tary of itate fur war on tho irou-platcd
stocking question; they knew how hard
he bad boon upon his nephew and god
son in many matters; but aa he was tho
only being whom Edwiu regarded with
any degree of awe, tliey trusted he would
ooiiiO to the rescue and -'put a step to
it," all befuro the family was disgraced
tot ever aud ovor by a mssallianoo, or
by ome dreadful scandal that w-s al
most as bad if not quite a lasting,
"I'll soon put an end to this non
sense," said Mnj. Crawshaw, after read
ing bis sister's letters. "I'll havo no
mora of it. He had put an end to a
great deal of nonsense in his time, being
a hard-headed, sharp old soldier in his
way, and he waa very sure of his power
hi demolishing this stp bubble affair in
loss than four and twenty hours. Ha
knew the wuld and what it waa made
of; be understood men and women, par
ticularly foolish men and designing wo
men, whom he had come across in a
experience of fv and forty years, to

before, for other people's takes and
his own. Let him march and away

LEK AT FRUDERICKSBURG.
In the August C'enfiiry, Major J'
Iloraoo Lacy gives some of bis rominia
oonoes ot General Lee. From his ar
ticle we quote as follow : "Ascending
tbo heights, I soon reached what waa
called the headquarters bat terry of
General lice. Afar across tho valley
and river in tho gray !igt t of oarly
morning oould be soon the white porches
of my homo. Chatham, made historie by
Federal army eorrespoodente, as tbo
Laoy House. Tho poroh&s were filled
with officers and gayly dressed women,
and from half a score of .brass bands
rang out across the valley Yankee
Doodle and Uail Columbia!' The
commanding ofieer of tb batterry nak
ed if I wauld permit bun to scatter the
nnbiddrn trnests at my home. At bis
request I asked Lee to authorise tho
Gr of the heavy guns, which would
have kid Chatham in the dust. With
a smile he refused, and, asking me to
walk with htm, we withdrew a short
distanoo. Ho then motioned mo to ait
by tho trunk of a largo tree.
"Looking across at Chatham through
tia IL'M-glass ho, said, Major, I .never
porwit tlie urneecssary effusion of blood
War is terribl? enough, and its best, to
a christian taxa ; 1 hope jot to see yon
and yonr d-ar family happy in your old
home. Do you know I lovo Chatham
better than any place in the world ex
cept Arlington ! I courted and wen
my dear mfo under tho shade of those
trees. By the way, not long since 1
was riding out with my staff, and ob
serving how your grand old trees had
been cut down by those people, I snvr
that a magmfiucut tulip poplar at the
head of Uic ravine, north of the house,
was still s'anding, and, with somewhat
of your rhetoric, I said to Yenabla and
Tayler : "There is nothing in vegeta
ablo nature so grand as a treo. Grap
pling with its roots tbo granito lounda
tions of tho ever-lasting bill.-, it readier
iu s'.urdy and gnarlod trunk 011 high,
spreads its branches to tho heavens
easts its shadow on tlto sward, and tho
birds build their noils aud sing amid
its uubrairaous foliage. Beheld, the
monarch stripped of attendants and
guards awes tho vandals by tho simple
majesty of his sublimo isolation." Pook-
etiug my field-glass, and riding on, I
heard mingled with laughter a request
fronyhe gentlemoa that 1 would bring
glass to bear once more on me monaroo
of the forest. I looked, and even wbilo
I had been talkingjthe axe of tho vandal
Was laid to the root aud monarch bad
fallen."
Then, moved by emotion unusual to
bis oalm and equable nature, he contin
ued, 'I had three hundred aorea of
woodland at Ailington. Serving the
United States Government for many
years oa the frontier, I marked wi'h my
hand each tree that was to be used for
timber or fuel. They tell me all my
trees are gone yours are all gone';
then rising from tbe log, with a firo and
passion rarely witnessed in mm, anu
ith all the majesty of his sublime
presence, he said : Major, they have'
onr frees; they shall never have the
land!
'Tlireo years after tho oloie of the
war 1 was a visitor at the homo of Gen
eral Leo, then president of Washington
and Leo University. After dinner tho
General retired, and I was invited to
see Mrs. Le in her chamber, Sho was
a great sufferer and confirmed invalid,
incapable of notion save in a roller-chair
whieh it was tho chief delight of him
who had so long directed great armies
to move from room te room, bonding
over her with tho grace of a Sidney and
tho devotion of a youthful lover. I
told Mrs. Loe tho story whioh 1 bavo
so imperfectly attempted to reproduce.
Need I tell any woman who reads these
pages that tears streamed down that
patient, furrowed face or that a light
and joy from bcyoud tho stars beamed
through these tears, as sho knew that
the thoughts of her great husband wan
dered fax away from the clash of arras
to the memories ot their youthful love
and courtship under the shade of hor
ancestral oaks, for Chatham was origi
nally the property of a near relative.
As I concluded the sentence, "They
shall never havo the land,' hearing a
sl:.ght noise, I turned and saw the
Geuoral, who bad silently entered, m
dressing goan and slippers. The great
buck-shot drops slowly rolled down that
face, whose oalm was never brokon by
the earthqnake shock of battle. Blowly
and silently ho retired, and I oould
hut feel tho deepest oompnootion thai
words of mine should have sent ano'ler
pang through that great bcait."
