Jbverasa, uo not go ana eave me here alone' said Agnes Bale, clasping her small hands piteously; ' it eeems so gloomy, and trouble is near 1 know. j . , ' Nonsense, Agne. Tliere is no trouble coming. Your foolish fancy has' invested my going to Newfork with ter rors having no foundation," and Everard Dale laughed merrily., Jl fc '' .:j But there irn6 particular u3ed of your going now, and you knowAhow I feel." 1 ' ' I cpuld go next week or next month as well, but I must o sometime, and choose to go now, just to show how fool ish your fancies are." " Well, if that is the case, I will sav no more about it," and having pleaded as long as her womanly dignity would al low, Agnes turned and left the room. ' What foolish creatures women are !" said her husband. They think we must bow t every whim and fancy they have. tun." Ah ! humor I will not do so, that's cer- if husbands would sometimes their wives' fancies, much misery and many heart tragedies might be avoided. Agnes Arnand and Everard Dale had been married one year. Agnes was the most beautiful and wealthy young lady in Provost, and, while spending the summer there, Everard Dale had be come acquamted with her and won her for his wife. She was proud, intelli gent, accomplished and womanly; and, having been brought up in a home where every wish had been gratified, had never known the sting of disajpointnient. Everard Dale was arbitraiy and thought less in hi own wav, and careless in his method of obtaining it. When she married Everard, Agnes had loved and honored him, but she had been bitterly pained when she came to know, liini thoroughly. Not (that j he was wicked; he was simply selfish. He loved liis wife, but his was one of the natures that think their manhood re el uires-; an assumption of authority, espe cially in their own households. j Everard and his wife had been grow ing away from each other all the year of their married life, and now he was doing an unnecessary act that would sever the already frail cord binding her to him. . ; She had become possessed with the idea that if he went to New York trouble would 'come to her, and this idea he had laughed at. She had tried entreatv, al most prayer, but he had remained obdu rate. A poor hero, seemingly, yet there was feeling in him, if the weak selfish ness tliat covered it could be penetrated, and something waken it to action. "He does not love meat all, orj he would do as I wish," and the proud woman bowed her head and wept bitter tears.-- ; -But she was niistaken. He did love her, and would have suffered much be-: cause of this love, but having lived for self alone j he did not know what consid eration for others was. j "I will leave him," she continiied, "I will not be treated like this; sfnee he cares Imt for my money he can have it; and I have loved him so much. " I ! Agnes Wiits high spirited, and with her action! followed quickly after thought. At the time her husband reached New York she left Provost, bound for the great metropolis. She left a letter for her husband on the table in her dressing-room. It was short and pointed, saying: M " Everard DaiiB I have learned that when you said you loved me it w:as my jtnoney to which you referred; keep it, and may it do you much good. .1 love you, but I do not care to love and have no return; therefore, I leave you. Where lam going no one knows, but I shall not come back. My trouble has come to me. Good-bye ! Agnes." Then,1 with hot tears burning her eyes, she went away. , Three days after this Everard came home, and inquired of the servant who admitted him where his wife was. j ;l " Mrs. Dale left home the same dav von did.- and has not vet returned!" " Did she say where she was going ?" 1 ,:"No,sir.p. .(;... s i '! Nor leave any word for me " " Not that I know of, sir. " He stopped to hear no more, but inr- j ried up the broad stairway to her rooms. They were chill and lonely, showing that no one had lately used them. A terror crept over him, but he went on to the j dressing-room, which opened beyond her boudoir. There he saw the letter, and, breaking the seal, soon of his loss, 'r knew the extent ! Had his -life met no shock, he would always have remained a selfish and "arbi- I trary man; but tniS: tearing away oi i tue j cloak that hid his true nature from Inn self was what he needed to waken his beS i tor manhood. ; have -wronged her and ho ht ii me, ne moanea, , ana yex x ioe ucr, - J i , i i i -r i 1. and the proud man wept like a child. But he roused himself, for, as I have said, his manhood was strong. " . " I will seek her," he said, " and find her if she be alive, and never shall my feet pass the door of. this house unless she is with me, or I know that she is dead." j By inquiring at the station he found that slip had taken the New York train. So he placed the house in charge of an old servant and followed her. And now began fa -weary search. He sought her. among her old friends, the fashionable people with whom she had been wont to j mingle, i but they knew nothing about her. '. ' Employers of sewing women were sur prised to1 have a sad eyed, fine looking man I solicit the privilege of walking through their workrooms; but though he visited all of these places that he could find, and repeated the inspection so often that the superintendents and employees thought; him crazy, and refused him fur ther admittance, he could find no trace of his wife. Then he traversed the vile haunts of the. city, and entered every home of vice, j butshe was not there. Each day brought him no nearer the end of his search, and still he did not grow hope less. ! . n Once he thought he saw her. It was in an intricate maze of thoroughfares. As he was hurrying on a cart was backed violently ,pn the sidewalk, and had not a j rough, strong grasp held him, his search j might have ended then and tliere; when j Jie could again proceed, the form he was j following had disappeared. But a few j seconds had intervened, and he hurried to the next crossing, expecting to see the j familiar figure in this street, but it was j not there. j Then he patiently inquired at every door, for1 blocks on either side of the j way 'he had been following, but to no I availL This search through the poverty j stricken, crime reeking homes of New York made Everanl Dale a worthy man, j one in whom love for God, as shown in j love I for his creatures, budded (and i bloomed and grew to noble fruitage. If I cannot find her, I can do some j goodj with her money, " bethought, and, whilst seeking her, his hand gavel to j those he found needing his help, and his i words of kindness, hope and love called up bright smiles to many faces. Leaving her home, Agnes had come to the great city, uncertain what toj do or where to go. While her money lasted she fared" well enough, but when it was all gone the bitter trial came. Slie was beautiful, but beauty was a sadllowerin the city where it is bought and old for gold. She was talented, but such gifts command no price where tliere is an overplus of them. She was good, trusting, loving ; and the city is full of blighted innocence, blasted faith and broken hearts. ! Agnes sought employment, and at last, when her plainest garments were all 'that hunger had left her, and starvation I stared her in the face, her beauty 'obtained work from one who thought to make her his prey. I Those who have no knowledge of want, whose well stocked wardrobes and groan ing tables -prevent' thenv from thinking that life is hard, or that some souls are tempted and lured into selling themselves for "bread, forget that they are only a small part of humanity, and that many canndt command even the mean things they spurn. But want is purity's great est foe, and charity should be rich indeed j to many a fallen one. Men who live in, the haunts of vice are ; generally very good judges of those their j will can conquer, but Harold Clargham ' was deceived in Agnes. She worked faithfully, but repelled all his advances with a scorn and contempt that was ex asperating to . one of his low and base nature, so he discharged her. By strict economy she managed to keep her squalid attic room for . a month after leaving Clargham's employ. Then winte and sickness came, and she was thrust forth one stormy eyening, to go, she knew not where. ! She wandered aimlessly; along the streets, and was jostled and stared at, but . she heeded it not ; she saw brilliant lights, but shunned these, and at last came t j the docks. ' ; l The tall masts of the ships loomed up J tall and ; ghostlike against the dark and j heavy clouds. The waves came moaning j among the wharves and vessels, and the j sound seemed the deathjisong of a pas- j sionate, broken heart. There was a sob and j wail in the rising wind that fitted j well with the scene. Alone, for the gloom had. made all other mortals seek the glare of the well j lighted street, she watched the river ; flowing on to the ocean. She could j dimly see it through a space left open at ! the end. of the wharf whereon she stood, ) and! it looked very cold and dark and i still, i She walked slowly toward it, and j at last stopped just above its shadowy ; lflow..,jr.--:ii-. . M ':' '-.y.-v. ,-' t M It is only a. step," she thought, and , leaned against the large j post that at the corner of the wliarf, and sighed wearily, and a sob shook her poor, form. . ! ! I Oh, if he had only loved me !" she said, but there was no whisper of hope to comfort her, and she did not know! he had been seeking for her during all the lofig months of her suffering, that even nosrjhe was near her wafcliing though he did not know it was she. ; r ; J5; JT will end it now," she cried, bit terly, " and may God have mercy on my soul!" - ' j:' u: Tl en she attempted to spring into the river's cold embrace, but a strong hand held her back. She turned, and from a passing vessel came a gleam of light that ran across the dark waters; up the face of the wharf and at last lit their face?. : !. " Agnes, darling !" I "Bverard !" and she sunk insensible at his feet. i ! . He took her in his arms and bore her back into the lighted streets. People stared at him, and wondering looks and questions- followed him, but ho' heeded nothing, and carried, the thin form, that was light as a babe's to him, on to his hote , where he laid her on his bed, and chafed the cold hands and feet, but she gave no sign of '"Returning consciousness. Then the physician came and gravely shook his head. "I cannot sav that she will jrecover," he said, " and if she does, her reason will doubtlesss be clouded." Everard Dale's soul sent up a silent prayjer to God : ' ' Save her, good Fath er; give me time and chance to show her how I love her, and long for her for giveness," and God heard aud answered his prayer. j It was after long weeks of watching and care that Agnes Dale opened her eves to consciousness, and saw her hus- band bending over her, a great love and tenderness in liis eyes, and heard a voice say, isoftly : " Forgive me, and love me again, my own darling. " Her1 weak hand r sought .his, and the wasted fingers closed around it, the light pressure telling him that he was loved and forgiven1. Experience had made him tender and loving, as well as strong and true and when Everard Dale bent down and kissed his wife's thin lips, the kiss frooke to her soul and told it what it most longed to hear. ; - As from darkness comes light,! as from the. rough seed springs the beautiful flower, and from the coldness of winter is bcjm the glory of spring, so from sor row and , pam came trust and Jove and joy to these two souls. ! My story is finished; and, though it may seem that it is founded on a little thing, still all lives are made up; of such, and were it not for the little joys and glad! spots in thein, they would jbe dark indeed. If we will consider the feelings of others let the one to be considered hold the position of wife, child, friend, or sjtranger, it matters not - which we will find that our thoughts will meet fewer rebuffs,' and that gladness and with true kindliness are not such rare 'things as we thought them to be. The Very Latest A well informed politician, who has read with interest the various proposi tions by which trouble arising rom the counting of the electoral vote 'may be avoided, has, .after due consideration, concluded that he lias eliminated a com promise from the difficulties of the situa tion which is sure to be indorsed by the American people. He proposes that the Vote of Louisiana shall be given to Til den md Hendricks, and that they shall be : inaugurated. That Thurman, of Ohio, shall resign his place in the Sen ate forthwith, and that B. B. Hayes shall be elected and chosen president of that body. Mr. Hendricks shall immediately be sunt as minister to the- court of St. James, which pays better than being Vice-President; Mr. Hayes will jthus be come Vice-President, and at the expira tion of two years President Tilden shall resign and Senator Hayes will; succeed him as President for the balance of the term. The plan would be incomplete unless Mr. Wheeler was assigned an honorable position. It is therefore sug gested tnat Senator Conkling be request ed tb resign and accept the French mis sion, and that Mr. Wheeler be elected to fill the vacancy, and then elected president of the Senate, after Mr. Hayes becomes President. Mr. Thurman shall be secretarv of State under Tilden, and Mr. Hendricks, on his return from the English mission, shall be elected to the Senate to fill the vacancy in Indiana. Quick Wobk.

''I A correspondent writincr i of ' the Ger man army says the amount of work done by it is great, j During the milder months every regiment drills four or five hours a day, and (from five to eleven in the morning the j streets to the parade grounds resound with the music of their bands as" they march to and fro. 1 The grounds are at all times full j of squads drilling ! or ' - practicing - gymnastics." Three years form the period of actual service, , but any j one possessing a cer tain amount of ! education may byj pay ment of his own expenses escape with a "single year ; all, j however, must serve alike for three years in the reserve, called out for six weeks six vears in' the in each year, then; for Land wehr, and finally until the. age of forty-two in the Land- sturm, no service being required from the twoj latter classes.

Treatment of the jnsam. The interest which has lately been aroused touching the treatment of .the in sane in the asylums for tiieir seclusion, an exchange saysj is something wliich is j ot periCKiicai occurrence, tjut we nope the present agitation of the subject will J liave practical results. Tliere is no ques- j tion about it, the j entire subjection! of the j insane tp their keepers encourages gross abuse of them. Their malady linages them oftentimes exceedingly troublesome to their attendants, and the circumstance of their misfortune causes little heed to be given to theirj complaints, no matter how serious. Their stories may be called delusions by those whom they accuse, and are so in very many cases, but tliat they are true in others has been unques tionably proved. There is no depart ment of inedicine so unsatisfactory as that which concerns the treatment of a diseased mind, and no maladies jare so perplexing, so various and so conti-adic-tory in their manifestations, as tliose of the mental and nervous ' organization. But the best infomed specialists in New York and abroad jdi&countenance physical violence in the management of ihe in sane. In our asylums the trouble does not lie with the physicians in charge, ex cept so far as negligence of supervision is concerned; it is due to the cruelty of brutal or exasperated attendants, who ! have the immediate charge and cari al ways oppose their sane denials' to the in sane accusations ofHheir patients. Washington and Andre, The English historian, Chalmers, stated that Washington ordered the gal lows, on which Major Andre . was! hung in 1 1780, to be Ibtjilt in sight of the pris oner. This accusation aroused the ire of the Americana who flourished jin the early part of the century. No Jone was angrier than John Pintard, and he did everything that Could be done to xrrect the mistake. One day, sitting in his oflSce, a venerable personage, called on him, and as usual the conversation turned on Andrei " What !" said Pintard, 4 do you know anything about that execution? I "I do, for I was one of the guards who kept watch on .) mm wmie and who marched alongside place of " j ! in prison, him to the " Well, what did you do ? -Tell me. exclaimed Pintard. j "We took hini from the houe where he was kept, and marched .along the road until we turned into a lane, when J Andre shrunk back, and with a shudder j said : Is that to be T The gallows could be seen, and was seen by Andre for t lie first time, from the turn in the, lane."
