'And I venture to state," said Mr.
Armstrong, "that tb representative
of England is the only one of the three
who would need prompting on the
score of good manners." ' . i . .'.
Frederick Ghappell laughed good
humoredly, and took the hint.
"Mr. Richard Barton, Mr. Arm

"Only a few days." .
"You two will suit each other capi-

Richard gently corrected Jinn; he
had almost got over his sore feeling.
"No, no; not anything.

CHAPTER YH.
A BATTLE OF WORDS.
The turn which the conversation
letween the two young men had taken
did not promise well for future friend
ship. As in chemistry there are bodies
which fly violently from each other
w:hen"-attempts are made to bring them
together, spjamohg men there are na
tures which it is impossible to bring
into unisonL Even when, notwith
standing that their inclinations urge
them to regard each other with aver
sion, they strive, for one reason or
other, to overconfi.lieif-antipatb'i"tl'e ;
atlhpl isnvariably a failure. No
power can make their opposing na
tures harmonize. The mere presence
of one grates upon the other, and it
might almost be said that, with their
eyes dosed, they could detect the bale
ful influence. It is often a singular
feature in this instinctive repulsion,
that the parties know no ill of each
other. As in the present instance.
Here were two men of equal fortune,
presumably of equal standing in
society, who but a quarter of an hour
since were absolute strangers to each
other s existence; and although they

of cordiiu'' relations, they were, within
those few minutes, very nearly on the
brink of a quarrel.
Perhaps it is unnecessary to be pre
cise. If they had a quarrel, Richard
Burton would have been the open ag
gressor. He was the more impulsive
to hot-blooded of the two the more
sincere and out-spoken,- the more in
experienced. ' Frederick Chappall was
two well verseiyn the usages of polite
society to commit a breach ot good
manners when ' his passions were not
strongly- excited; and as, in conse
quence of a decided laxity in his moral
nature, he was not so quick as Richard
Barton to take offense m such a man
iier as tins, his cue for aversion was
somewhat uncertain.

"I like a man who believes," said
Mr. Armstrong. "I would send all
skeptics and sneerers to a land of their
own, where they could snarl each
other to death." ( ;
Frederick held up his hand, as
though to protect himself from the
words. His manner throughout the
conversation was the manner of a man
who was indolently conscious of his
own suieriority. ;
"Don't be vindictive," he said. "Be
fore vou came in, I was sounding your
I .raises. Tell us some news.";
"I went to the Cut-and-Coine-Again
last night. I didn't see you there.
The Cut-and-Come-Again," said
FvprWiYk. in exi Sanation, "is one of
-- - " 7 A
our high-class theatres; Mr. Ami-
strong is an enthusiast on the subject
of the drama. What 'did you see
"It was the first night of an original
drama written by Mr. Clip."
Frederick again played the part of
chorus. "Clip is one of our best au
thors. An original drama I That is
news indeed. Really original?"
"Without a shadow of doubt. Clip
took it from the French, who took it
from the Spanish. The French had
no right to it, so Clip attached it. It
is Clip's clearly. Clever fellow, Clip
a genius. He has produced one hun
dred and ninety original plays. Long

perhaps be will ten us someTnore
news. You will never find Our school
master at a loss, Mr. Barton; he has
always something ready. I shal .be
gin soon to think . that he is ubiait
ous, for he is everywhere and sees
everything. A month ago I had occa
sion to visit Bow Street Police Court,
as a witness in an assault case deuced
hard lines it was, for I was not mixed
up with it in any way and there was
pur schoolmaster sitting on a bencli,
w'atching the poor wretches who were
before the magistrate for being drunk
and disorderly with as much interest
as he would watch the performance of
the last opera bouffe."
"I went into a police court last
week" 1 .

you ? Now listen to his expeirHsnci--fT5
Tt was in the country, and one of
your beautiful administrators of jus
tice, in the shape of a justice of the
peace, who knows as much of law as
my little finger, was on the bench."
"Understand," interposed Freder
ick, "that, as an American, M. Arm-'
strong has a profound contempt for
our English institutions, and ifxleed
for all institutions that are not Amer-
a
ican.
"Understand," rejoined Mi". Ann
strong, with a slight frown, "that I
have a profound contempt for injus
tice, wherever it be practised. Coun
try makes no difference to me ; I judge
by men and manners. Some of your
justices of the peace would be a dis
grace to any civilized country."
"You have not been to America,
Mr. Barton ?" asked Frederick.
"No," replied Richard, who followed
with interest this battle of words be
tween his new acquaintances, ' T hope
to go one day."
"There," said Frederick, ii-onically,
"you will find justice administered by
immaculate men men above reproach,
beyond corruption. Unhappy me !
Why was I born an Englishman '?"'
"M'o liovo rlaaii Idrd-a nnntl mir svs.
, r rf
terns." said Mr. Armstrong, "but we i
have the excuse, at all events, that we
are" comparatively a new country; and
you must bear in mind that we have
an enormous number of men of mixed
nationalities, and an enoimous terri
tory to govern. Why, sir, we could
playdice with three Great Britains in
"Bravo! bravo !" cried Frederick.
Wm liavfi no such excuse for mis-
o-ovemment in this country," continued
now I should like to ask what subject
you young gentlemen were discussing
when I entered. You appeared to me
to have arrived at an awkward phase
of it"
Richard Barton turned red at the
remembrance of his irritabnitv.
"A great subject, a wonderful sub
ject," replied Frederick; "two, indeed
money and woman." .
"You place them in the order of
merit?" observed Mr. Armstrong.
"Undoubtedly. The first is the
most stupendous tLcme-that I am ac
quainted with."
"I am greatly disposed to agree with
you. The theme is stupendous.'

vices that lie beneath it Trulv. anoh

till the sun was wrinkled ;and the
moon came out on crutches, you could
not do it justice."
Frederick Chappell yawned lazily,
and said :
"It is a good job for some of us,
that we don't live in the times when
the devil used to tempt men with
money-bags."
"You Avould have made a bargain
with him."
"No doubt of it," said Frederick,
very readily. "For twenty . thousand
a year, and twenty thousand to bolster
it up, I would sacrifice much."
"Principles, even?"
"Yes; and every other virtue I may
happen to possess."
"Strange," said Mr. Annstrong, who
for a reason of his own took Frederick
at his word, and appeared to be not
disinclined to wrangle witn lam
"strange that men live who iare not

icans were strong on patents, Mr.
Armstrong ought to take out a patent
for his new scheme of the planets and
constellations. In the midst of their
laughter, Trail appeared at the door
and announced a new visitor.
"Mr. Fangle, sir." ' f ' -Mr.
Fangle, upon entering, looked
fussily around. He was a short, spare
man, not too ' well dressed,' whose
joints seemed to be set upon wires.
"Ah, Fangle," said Frederick, "we
were just advising Mr. Armstrong to
take out a patent." And then the
young gentleman glanced acrain at the
clock and rose nervously. -His great
anxiety now was to get rid of his visi
tors.
"Patent !" cried Mr. Fangle, who

by some means wormed- himself.
"Patent for what?"'
Mr. Annstrong answered him. "For

drawing people together at the exact
moment they want to see one another

Washington, D. C, Dec 5.
Here we are again, looking down
from the unclouded heights of the
Reporters' Gallon" upon the Congress
of the United States. Below are the
chosen representatives of fiftv millions
of the most progressive people in the
world. I he House has not been called
to order, and, for this reason, perhaps,
is in great disorder. Maine is shaking
hands with Texas; Western heartiness
and Southern .-warmth are actually

Oregon to' Florida; while Massachu
setts and South Carolina have half lost
their identity in this common .Hall of
States. We see no political sections
