Many of the griefs and ills thaf '"human fiesh is heir to' might never betjalled into exist ence: many a needless jtear is shed 'in eilence and alone; many a igh, fraught with its tale 'of wretched ness and wee, is sent heavenward, and been use poor human nature is so little understood. We cannot always judjie thesecret workings of true affections deeply, concealed in the inmost recesses of the heart be cause we will cover up our better natures-; we will walk through life with masks over our faces. Such were the musings of a proud but generous nature a nature just I ke what has been described. Too honest with herself to conceal what was known to her own heart alone, and too proud to betray her secret in any manner, to the gaze of a cold, calculating world, it was no wonder th:it Ei.iine Walfcrd called herself r.n unhappy woman. But she cu;ht not to have been unhapry. People sa;d Miss Wal ford was eTt'ihily to be envied; and why? Ikiress to immense wealth, as she was the only child of h man who could count his gold by tens of thousands, what more was waiting to make her ieel complete? Was it love ? Op.1v a minute before had ZZugh I.( rr.y , IT red his hand and heart with ail that appertained thereto,' if sht; would only consent to reign as mistress over the lordlv mansion across the way. Nor was this prou 1 mar. of the world the only one who l owed in homage at the fchnne of her beauty and wealth. Her lovers were almost as numerous as her father's money-bags. But still she was not happy. A vague uDrest pervaded her whole being, and until this longing for something she had never known was satisfied, Elaine felt that life would .be but an empty form -a mere dull existence. It is a truism that we never value what we possess in abundance, but always crave what we have not. It'was a festive night at Walford Place. Every window in the mag nificent pile of buildings was ablaze with light, and floods of radiance streamed from the open doors.

PENDER, WITH ment; one continued blaze or splen dor and beauty dazzled the eye, aud all to honor the natal day of the fair mistress ol all these glories the regal girl who 'cared for none of these thicirs.' and moved about amid the grandeur that sur rounded her, as if it was perfectly natural, and a common, every-ciay occurrence. That day had Elaine Walford attained her majority, and it was to celebrate the event that, her doting father had resigned his lordly home into the skilful hands of the princi pal Uorist in the neighboring city iNo expense was to be spared to make everything suitable for the occasion. Invitations were issued for weeks beforehand to the elite of every city and neighborhood, to an extent that would nil tno spacious apartment to overflowing. Forms of grace and clearance, and others as frail and slight as Titania her self, glided among the gleaming statuary, which was caused to ap pear almost living by the light fall ing from a myriad of chandaliers. Althoueh Liaine seemed to take no special interest in all this, still her woman's vanity prompted her to dress with a richness and yet a simplicity that her position as hos tess required. Ihe heavy folds of shimmering white silk well suited the stately, willow figure, while the too great plainness was relieved by falls of creamy lace over the snowy, marble-like arms and shoulders. 'Rubles, red as Hood,' burned and glowed like 30 many stars around the swan-like neck, and bracelets of the same rich gems clasped the rounded arms. Drooping sprays of scarlet fuschias pressed their velvet cheeks loviagty against - the bands King Arthur reign as lord ar. ter of that proud, untamed : This was the very jeason Elaine had yielded so readi- . cause she acknowledged a t spirit, a will that was strong ": her own. - ' .

But the greatc; accomplished is the provii:.:i quiring the judges tate as of old; that is, no j be allowed to hold court , same circuit twice insucccs3 i Provision is also made fc establishment by the LegisLu exigencies may arise, of cc j; amendment is intended to (aciliate the ends of justice and. save- to the tax-payers large amonuts paid every year for boarding criminals so long in our jails awaiting for the regular courts. Special Courts might be established in the larger cities, where the jails are frequently crow ded with prisoners guilty of larceny and other crimes, and in the coun ties provisions mighi be made for the speedy trial and punishment of criminals, and thereby save annual ly thousands of dollars paid out for guarding and feeding worthless characters, nn.ny ofe whom are as well satisfied riying, in jail at the public expense as they would be loafing and pillaging honest people. It is also proposed to give the Su preme Court the same jurisdiction they had before the war over ques tions of fact, which will be a great advantage in the settlement of es tates, &c, and the Legislature may appoint dime other place than Ilal igh for the sitting of the Snpreme Court. The jurisdiction of magistrates is enlarged to all civil actions 'where 1 -C . -1 ; mo value oi property aoes not ex- ceed $50. This will be a great ! convenience to our people. Tho amendment in regard to I county governmeats is intended for ; the relief of those counties which ! have been afflicted with negro rult. i It simply leaves the whole matter ! in the hands of the Legislature to I make such changes as the public , welfare may require. For instance ; the Legislature may, if the people i demand it, provide for the appoint ment of magistrates as, they were formerly appointed, and may r:lso ; make provisions for the board of ' county commissioners. Such a ; ohsnge is not needed in counties ; where the whites have a majority : and elect competent and houtJt ' inagistr ates and commissioners. But iu the negro counties the cfrulk ion : uf the people is pitiable and de.!cr ; able in the extreme. On the subject of suffrage there I are two important chans-cs. ()n i requires a voter to live 90 days in ! the county before he can vote, and 1 '-he other provides that no person hereafter convicted of felony or any other crime infamous by the laws j nf tVift Sf.aro, oLjII not be allowed to j vote until restored to citizenship. Both of these changes are intended i to protect the purity of the ballot : box. Tho system of 'colonizing' ; voters that is importing thotn from ; county or State into another, to change the result of elections, has ; been introduced in our Stale fince ; the advent of Radicalism." arid a ' law requiring 90 days residence in j a county, instead of thirty, wn! have a tendency to check this nefarious : practice. This provision gives hon est men some protection against - ! fraudulent 'squatters,' who. under i the present law, could be brought j into the county 30 days before the i election to kill the votes of honest , and bona fide citizens. The other I provision prohibiting thieves and 1 other felons from voting, commends : itself to every honest man. There i should be some difference between I a good citizen and a bad oac, and i we do not see how any party can for 500 t) oil set worthy From the II rd Times. ameei::.-: c-irls.

This amendment . j reward for honesty, and a pucish" 1 ment for crime, and it is calculated ' to check much of the Btealin that j is now going on in the country. The changes proposed in the . : legislative department are of great advantage. Heretofore the Legis ! latures have prolonged tho sessions much longer than necessary, and the members havo voted themselves such per diem as they choose. The amendment limits the sessions to GO days, and the pay to 4 per day : and ten cents mileage. By this - i change there will bo a great re luc , 1 tion in the expense of a Legislature. The costs of a Legislature cm not ! exceed $60,090, counting every , thing, whereas the cost has avorag ;. od in tho last eight years over 100, ; 000.

Forty Years SatwoQa Drink?. A Keokuk tourist was waiting at St. Joseph for the train for Quincy the other day, wile pacing the plat form was accosted by an old gen tleman and the two entered into a conversation. In the course of tho powwow our Keokuk mail ascer tained that the stranger was a minister of the gospel, and, like himself was bound for Quincy. They sat in the same scat in the car, and after they had traveled some dis tance the Keokuk tourist pulled a flask from his pocket, held it to the light, pulled the cork, and turning to his companion remarked : " I never drink when I am at home, but when 1 am on the road, constantly drinking all kinds of water, I take a little for the stom ach's sake," and taking :i moderate drink he politely offerc 1 the llask to tho minister. "My friend,'' said tho reporter, am a minister of the go?pel, and have been for forty years. In all that time a drop of liquor has not touched my lips, but as you seem to he a gentleman, and considering the surroundings, I will take a drop or two," and placing the ilask to his mouth he swallowed about half of the contents. They had procced e I but a few miles aud the rever end gentleman was warming up. "My brother, I'm a preacher, and haven't drank a drcp of liquor i'sir forty years, but 1 have a pain, and if you will let ir.e have a drink from your flask 1 think it will do i' j good." Tlia flask was pass. h;ilf of the remaining taken. The divine began to feel good. He was talkative and exhil arated, yls the train pulled up at 1, and about contents was station he reache ;.l th an d, he t;iiing tne iiasic irom tno sea' remarked : "Shee, my iren, forty ministry.
