The Little Lady. K. f i.iwWw'Jfei fi t f 1 V.I I was stopping at the Hotel Windsor, on Kue de Kivoli, Fans. One morning I was smoking in tbe cuioimaue, waen a tan, eieganuy areeseu gentleman asked permission to light his cigar by mine. I saw at once that be was a Frenchman, although bis "English" was nearly perfect. "Have you beared tbe news 1 " be in quired. "Is it possible ! Why all Paris is alive with it at !.; Tbo Countess de Marville, the fairest of the fair, was found murdered in her bed last night, her bureau broken open and ten thousand francs missing from it. It was terrible ! The brnte wbo did the deed effected his entrance through tbe window of ber chamber, near which.nn- ortunately, was a tall tree planted by the distinguished grandfather of the Countess years ago. I Little did be imagine what a terrible use would be made of it." 'This is bad news. How any man could harm a woman thus in cold blood is more than I can imaeiue." "Ah, monsieur, if you had ever seen the Ci un teas yon would wouder still more She was beautiful beautiful as an angel," ne added, stroking his whiskers with an unmistakable air of vanity ; l'I knew her well. "Indeed.? "Ob, yes. There are in Paris few popu lar women unknown to me." His manner now was decidedly con ceited, and I felc disgusted. My coldness evidently repelled him, for he soon left me. Afterwards I heard from others accounts of the late tragedy. Among the details of the affair was one that pcculiary impressed me and which my fust lutdrmant had not spokeu au oversight which surprised me, as the occur rence he had not mentioned was of that kind which would be moat apt ' to strike the fancy. Upon the throat of the Countess the murderer, in throttling her, had left a mark from a riug he wore the impres sion of a chariot wheel with a star in tbe centre. 1 "This," said my latest informant", "may lead to the discovery of the mnr dcrer. J$an Mosqneau is already visiting the jeweler's shops to find out from which and by whom a ring with a chariot wheel device was purchas ed." "WJro is jTean Mosquean ?" "What, Jean Mosqueau, onr famous detective ? Although his courase is well- known, you would not, to look at hi fair, delicate tacQ and form, believe that he could fight a gnat." A week later I was aboard the steamer bound from Calais to Dover. Among ine passenerers 1 beiield one A 1 t whose face looked famdiar to me. I . I i ., . waa uui mug 111 reco?uizui tnia nerson as the same I had seen in front of the Hotel Windsor, and who had first in formed mc of the murder of the Coun tess. He was certainly a very handsome man. although his conceited air was a blot npon 1 a t ' ms good looks. He moved languidly hither and thith- er, turnine nis brown eves adminnrlv -Orf npon the pretty lady passengers, while stroking his whiskers with one white hand, upon the middle finger of which was a superb diamond ring. i am rather of a suspicious nature, which, combined with a lively imagi nation has often led me into singular errors. I Now, a strange impulse moved me to advance and hold out my hand to the man whom I bad involuntarily disliked from the first, in order that I might have a chance to glance at his ring. Somehow the idea possessed me that I should dis cover a chariot wheel device upon the glittering bauble. The stranger did not at first recognize roe. He soon did, however, and frankly extended his L-i't hand, which was not the one containing the ring My brainj fairly reeled ; the man's be havior was a confirmation of my suspic ions, t I "The other hand, if yoa please." I said in a low, stern voice. "Monsieur will please excuse me ; my other aim ia lame with rheumatism." He beheld me glance towards the half hidden ring, and I was sure I saw him stait and turn Dale, at the same time looking mack surprised. He, however, opened his fight hand, as if perfectly willing for: me to shake it if I chose to. Then I had a good look at the ring, and felt ashamed of my suspicions. The devise was a common heart, which cer tainly bore 110 resemblance to a chariot wheel. After a general conversation to recover my self-possession, I tamed away, resol ved in the future to have a better opinion of my felloy creatures. i he stranger s good looks seemed to attract the attention of a good many of the ladies. ' One especially, a modest looking little thing attired in black, kept furtive glances at the handsome passcn ger. Finally she glided so close to him that iu turning he brushed against her. An apology, smilingly received by the little lady, a remark about the weather on tbe part of the gentleman, aud tbe two were soon conversing with animation. Meanwhile, the blushing cheek and bright eyes of the fair one seemed to betoken that she was well pleased with ber com pauion, whose air was more conceited than ever. ; "I am afraid we shall have a storm," she remarked, pointing towards a dark cloud upon which the captain of the boat SALISBURY, N. C DECEMBER was gazing anxiously. "We may, but do not be alarmed mad ame." With an air of nonchalance he pulled a red cigar cafe from his pocket and asked his companion if she objected to a smoke. Then be started, and quick ly returning the red one to bis pocket, pulled forth another of a blue color. "How many cigars do you smoke in a day 1" inquired (he lady, evidently amus- ed at the sight two cases. The other and it struck me that his voice hand trembled, htly faltered and his be made some laugh - ing reply. j - Soon the storm came pouncing down upon us. We were midway in the Chan nel, to that we Caught the fall force of the sea and the rale. Both were terrific. The sea swept the boat, which lay so far over that bar machinery was soon damaged so that it would not work, The wind, screaming like a demon, threw her over still farther. Suddenly we observed the sailors en deavoring to loosen a long-boat on the davits at the stem. Meanwhile there was an ominous grinding, smashing t noise under the counter. 1 tie truth could not be concealed ; we were sink ing. Tbe ladies screamed : the handsome passenger lost his self-possession - and ran hither and thitber. The cool behavior of tbe little lady in black contrasted strangely with the agitated demeanor of those around her. There she stood calm and immovable, her bright steel-blue eyes fixed upon this handsome stranger, of whom she did not lose sight for a moment. "Keep quiet, ladies and gentlemen t" sang oat tbe captain "Keep quiet and don't crowd around the boat so ! There will be room in it for you all ; and bo sides, there is a schooner coming to our assistance, pointing to a vessel sail- iug towards as before lite wind. A here was, however, a panic among those addressed. Tbe moment the boat mi 1 was lowered, into it they all bundled, a- nioug them the handsome passenger. A huge sea coming along, roaring like thunder, parted the tackles, tearing the boat from tbo steamer before. the lady iu black or I could enter it. The handsome passenger, losing bis balance, tell over the gunwale, and, being unable to swim, wildly threw up his arms. I must acknowledge that I was so en grossed with the perilous situation of my fair companion and myself now the only two left aboard the steamer that I paid little attention to the drowning man The steamer was, iu fact, going down fast was already nearly engulfed in the stormy wavc, her heated and half submerged boilers hissing as the steam came gushing out like the spout of a whale. I was advancing to throw an arm around the little lady, fearing to see her washed away, when quietly motioning me back with one hand, she seized a coil of rope and threw the end to the hand some passenger. He caught it, when turning to me, the lady requested tyi a t rv ht i i.i u j t i-i pin hiiul lliM mnn ahnarn. I p.nmn wd.

The idea flashed clearly acrosss ray mind in spite of my danger. The schoon er, however, was very near, and I had every reason to believe that we should be picked np. I was right. We were all taken aboard the. schooner, tho handsome passenger among the rest. Then the lady in black pulled forth a revolver, pointing it at the head ot him whom she had rescued. "Out with that red cigar case V she said sternly. "I would like to see what Mon sieur carries in it." "Why why," stammered tbe stranger; hat is" Before he could say another word, the little Amazon thrust her disengaged hand ' m m t iu his pocket, pulled forth the red cigar r;irv aii.'I nnpnintr it a ..'hkt rlr.mnpil nn . j , u i - - o n The ring she picked up, and holding it up before us all, exclaim -d : "1 havo found it at last.

Tlrs person is the murderer of the Countess dc Maryville I" The haudsome pasengcr atood as if frozen to the deck, making no resistance as tbe lady in black slipped a pair of hand- cans over his wrists. "By what right," he then stammered, "do you" He paused as the other threw off her dress and false hair, ri valing the person of a slender man with delicate, girlish features. "I am Jean Mosqueau, the detective !' he quietly remarked ; "and I robbed the sea of this man that the scaffold might not be cheated." There is little more to add. Tbe main proof having been obtained, other proof! on the prisoner s trial was brought forth, showing him guilty beyond doubt. Long before his execution his name was ascc r ained to be Louis Rosseneau, a noted adventurer and gambler, who, however, by cool effrontery and a winning address, backed by his good looks, had been enabled to move among the first cir cles of Parisian society. Everything is quiet as regards the Carlist war in Spain. Don Carlos has gone into winter quarters among the moun tains, and Don Alpbonso has gone to Paris. They still light in the old fash ioned way in Spain regular campaigns in their season, iuactivity tbo rest ot the year. eouvea U I 5 11. 1873.

It refers to the Vienna Exposition which was creditable to the artisans of the Uni ted States, to the reception of tbe Western Ambassadors by the Emperor of China, and to the need of farther legislation to suppress the infamous Coolie trade. It recommends a commission for the amount to be paid for losses caused by the Confederate prirateers. It refers to the Mixed Commission for determining claims between British eub- ;ta ,,A a -..j .w. nnrnnon . f , A I r I . . rm n A I ?-. iL . an aooronriation to nav th munt - decisions against the United States, and also recommends a law creating a special court of three judges, to hear and deter mine all claims of aliens against tbe Uni ted States arising out of damages commit- ed against, their persons aud property uring the insurrection It asks the decision of Congress on the subject of the action of the Ottoman aud E r 6 6 tu T'.A .... :.. .u The President transmits the application of the Republic of Santo Domingo that the United States shall exercjsca protector ate over the Republic. The message discusses at some length the qnestiou of the right of extrad tion, especially as to citizens of the United States and residing permanently abroad with their families, and suggests legisla tion on the subject. It refers to the establishmHit of a Re public in Spaiu and to the efforts of tbe new GaTernment to abolish slavery in all its dominions, which efforts are opposed by the reactionary slaveholders of Cuba, who are vainly striving to stop the match of civilization. The balufal influence bad thus succeeded in dcfealiug the efforts of all liberal minded men in Spain to abolish slaver' in Cuba, in preventing the propo sed reformation in that island In tbe interest of humanity, of civilization, and of progress, it was to be hoped that tho evil influence might be soon averted. In reference to the capture of the Vir gir.ius and to the inhuman and illegal m ardor of fifty-three of tbe passengers and crew, he says that the Spanish govern ment had recognized the justice of this demand, and had arranged for the imme diate delivery of tho vessel and for the surrender of the survivors of the passen gers and crew, and for a salute to the flag, and for proceedings looking to the pun ish -nent of those who may be proved to have been guilty of illegal acta f violence towards citizens of the United States, and also towards indemnifying those who may be shown to be entitled to indemnity. The correspondence on the subject had been conducted in cypher and by cable, and therefore not in a condition to be snb- i mitted to Congress. I The Piesident expresses his conviction that the expenso ot Alrican slavery in : .1.- 1 . v no i is ii Kiuc. mi cause ui me lauiciiia- r . . . ble condition of the Island, and docs not doubt that Congress shares his hopes that it will soon be made to disappear, and that peace and prosperity will follow its abolition. He suggests two consli'utional amend ments, one to authorize the President to approve so much of any measure of'Coiu gress as his judgment may dictate with out approving the whole; aud the other, to provide that when an extra session of Congress is convened by executive proc lamation, legislation shall be confined to such subjects as the Executive may bring before Congress from time to lime in wri , ring. 1 He recommends the erection at Wash ington unsuitable buildings for Cabinet . officers and for such officials as now re- ceive commutation ior quarters, mus setting an example to the States which may induco them to erect buildings for their Senators. Tho nicssacc goes very fully into the financial question, and declares that the country never can have permanent pros- have peruy unwi specie paymcuia ue rosnui- ed. He recommends legislation providing national banks from p tying interest ou deposits aud forcing them into resumption if only in legal tender notes. lie sug gests the question whether banking should not bo made full, but securing ail the present privileges to bill hol ders. He notices the improvement in Ameri can shipbuilding during the past year and h pus for a continuance of it. In regard to the problem ofeheap trans portation he refers to the Erie and Illinois canals and su?ests whether it would no be wise slate man ship to pledge to '.he States that own thoso canals that if they will enlarge them tbe gcuoral government will look Vter an keep in navigable con dition tlni great public highways with which these canal? onnect, to wit : the Hudson river, the St. Clair flats and the Illinois and Mississippi rivers. He rec ommends a government exploration of the upper Amazon river and its tributaries ; a revision land codification of the tariff laws, and tthe opeuing of more mints. The message endorses the recommenda tion of the) Postmaster General for tbe establiohment of postoffice savings deposi taries, and! invites the consideration of Congress to the proposition for a postal telegraph, j He recommends Legislature in regard to the judicial proceedings in Utah, and ftlso iu regard to the bankrupt cy law which be considered as productive of more evil than good. If not totally repealed it should be modified in those portions providing for in volautary bank ruptcy. Those portions should be repeal ed. He calls attention to the immense aggregate of claims aguust the Govera- NO. 1 ment, many e them growing net of tbe rebellion, and not a few of them fabrica ted and supported by false teettseswiya. He recommends that persona baring claims be required to present them at an early period and that personal attendance , witne"e b5 reqmred at eoart of claims. lo regard to - the Indian question, be regard to .the Indian question, he recommends a tcrritoral form of Govern ment for tbe Indian Territory. He also recommends tech action at will permit the sentiment of a body at Roasian Colonists on tbe public lands, and en dorses tbe proposition for a oeesus in 1875. He eulogizes the Washington Board of PoW Ws and speak, of the srreel im- provetneot of the city under the operations f Bow?' fle nl Phe7 f fj nggesta tbe establishment bore as a National University. He recommends the passage as an ena bling aet for tbo admission of Colorado as a State, and suggests the opening of a canal for the purpose of irrigation from tbe eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains to the Missouri river. In conclusion, he renews his recommen dation for general amnesty and says "there are a number ot persons yet laboring un der disabilities very small, but enough to ccp up a constant irritation. 1 here can he no possible dang( possible danger to the lioveramcnt in restoring them to eligibility to bold office, end suggests tbe enactment of e lew better to secure tbe civil rights which freedom should secure, but has not effect ually secured to the entrancised slave. A NEW POEM BY W. W. STORY. From Blackwood for Xorcmber. I. MORNI'G IN SPRING. LOVE. How sweet is this grove, With iu delicate odora Of earth and of air ! How soH are the shadow That sleep on the sward ! Here, love, let m rot I How tender the hues. Like the bloom on the plant, f the fardrcnming mountain, That sleep on the sky! How fnint the dim distance, Through Ion;; silent viataa Of thick-thronging tree! Look, love, as the breeze lifts And whispers among them, The leaves all alive In the flickering sunlight Stir, murmur, and talk. List, love, how the brooklet Is talking and telling Iu petulant troubles Amid the lush graa.e, Around the wet stones. How tendtr and dear I this beautiful dar. All Wk til. k. loanf r And grace of the spring ! None ever was like it None ever before, An 1 nonerer could be Till love lent iu spell ! A spirit ia moving Around u unseen, It haunU with iu presence This delicate air, And draws us for ever With mystical sway, Till sweet ailent longing Stream forth from the heart, A the odor that stream From live buds and the blossoms At touch of the spring. Oh, lean on my brenst, love ! Look into my eyes! All nature breathes love ! O time, do not pan ! Stay with as stay with un, O beautiful day ! Stay, exqnl-ite dream ! For it is hot a dream What we feci and we see. A band a rude noise In a moment might wake us, And d r i v o i i away. Oh, keep us suspended 'Twin beaten and earth, Half soul and balf sense, And break not the dream! For the sounds and the sighU Like our likes are ideal, Or only half real, And half-discinltoditd, And under a spell. Are all thiqgs enchanted In Ufa and hi nature? Ah. yes for we love. In the tree, in the flowers, In ihe brook, in the stouea, Is a spirit iai prisoned That Calls Do the soul, That pays ojs to free it And longs tip come forth. Yet vainly we struggle To break ihe enchantment, And v ainly we listen To cntch what it says Too distant, too subtle, Too fine for our sense, Is the musio that calU us, That haunU and lonncnU ua, Still fleeing before us, Still taunting us on. Say, what can wc answer ? Oh, where is the charm That can break the enchantment, Unloose the bound spirit, And give us the key To the silence not silence, The beauty and grace That keeps biding and taunting The innermost soul? Oh love ! in par loving Still something we wsnt, For I cannot be uUerly yours Nor you mine For we cannot o'erlesp, love, The bound that divided as, And our souks and oar senses Fall back on tbeanselvca For we cannot express, love, What throb j within us, And we rink back to silence, Bo vain ia our speech. Ob love ! I ae love yoa, I would we could merge To one spirit one body, With no mint and thine To a union so perfect, So close and-ao single, That naught could divide a Again into two.
