It is a pimple story we have to tell, and, as U is a story of to-day, with the actors living and moving still in their respective spheres on earth, the 5 truth of the story eannct be gainsayed, r.or can the force of the moral which it conveys be weakened. Mr. Beverly was a merchant, wealthy, respected and influential, doing a business large enough to satisfy the ambition of an Astorlor a Jiiliy VTrey. itovious 10 uie fell swoop of the fire-fiend in Boston, his store reared its.granite front on Franklin Street, and multitudinous and bulky were the bales and boxes that found daily tran sit to .uid from the busy mart. In Mr. Beverly's employ were three .T,.rl.-rJ.m ('-Acton. Phillin Lewis and ( 'larcnee Bu.'bee who: had entered to was reasonable to suppose that they were l,.,. -the .mercantile ' business.

"Heavens!" cried Phillip Lewis with a start, "here come Mr. Beverly and Flor ence. Go and hide yourself, Acton, be fore they see you." But the young laborer did not budge an inch. Just then the boss called out to "hoist away !" and George applied himself to the work. Meantime Mr. Beverly and his daughter had come upon the scene, once more to look upon the ruins of the grand store house. Lewis and Bugbee bowed respect fully, and then drew aside in mortification that one of their fraternity should be found in so menial a position, for it was evident that both father and daughter had recog nized the youth, in the garb and grime of toil, r.s the former clerk. "Halloa!" cried Mr. Beverly, as soon as he was sure that Ids eyes had not deceived him, "Is this you, George Acton?" "Yes, sir," replied our hero. His face was flushed, but it was with healthful labor and not with shame the steady brigbtnccs of his eye showed that. "Are vou regularly hired herd" "Yes, sir. The contractor gave me this birth until we could find a better one." ""What does he pay you?" "Just the same that he pays others two dollars a day, but I earn a dollar ex tra in the evening by keeping his accounts. It's better than nothing, -sir. I tried to fird a clerkship, but there are at least a dozen applicants for every, vacant place. Of course I couldn't starve, and while I have health and strength I will neither beg. nor run in debt. I was brought up to work, you know; and, thank heaven, am neither afraid of it, nor do I feel above it." "Hoist away!" shouted the master; and George Acton again applied himself to his work. Mr. Beverly went over and talked with the contractor, and from the fact that they looked several times towards the windlass where the young clerk was at work, it Miss Florence spoke kid given" premise of efficiency -that they had been retained in the house a Tear or more was proof -positive to thoM? who knew Mr. Beverly, that they ; were of Industrious, steady habits, and young men of promise. ..'':'.'- At l.iv: l.n.r Air.

She imme diately stopped her preparations, and told him that she could nol marry him. He protested that she would drive him to dis traction ; promised never to drink another drop, etc. "No," she said; "I dare not trust my future happiness to a man who has formed such a habit. I came three thousand miles to marry the man I loved, and now, rather than marry a drunkard, I will go three thousand miles back again:" And she went. A COOL ROBBER. Policeman Badger, of the tenth station had .a bit of experience thn other night which he is not fond of talking about. It was past midnight as he was leisurely pur suing his beat through Jessop street, -and as he came opposite Drayton & Fogg's jewelry store he observed a gleam of light through the chinks of the shutters, and he rapped at the door. 'Is that you, policeman?' asked a voice within. 'Yes' answered Badger. 'Well its only me it's all right; kind o chillv out, isn't it?' 'Yes.' the Cl These clerks could be gay and gallant on oei-asion, but never so towards Fjorence IVvcrly. Tie' feeling they entertained towards her av.is one akin to worship.

He did not bow an fidleu t.i voting Acton, for pist then the laborer was busv at his work. ' And Philip Lewis and Clarence Bugbee I was just fixing the fire good night.' Badger said 'good night,' and pursued his way. An hour afterwards Badger passed through Jessop street again, and again he saw the light in the jewelry store. It didn't look right, and lie banged at the door loudly. 'Hallo' cried-tlio voice within. 'Is it vou, policeman V 'Yes.' 'All risrht. Won't you come in and warm you' It won't hurt anything for you to slip from your beat a few minutes.' The door opened and policeman Badger entered, and he found the inmate to be a very gentlemanly looking man m a linen duster. 'Come right up to the stove," policeman. Please excuse me for a moment.' The man took the ash pan from the bottom of the stove and carried it down into the cellar and emptied it, and whe lie had returned and wiped his hands he" lid with a smile: 'Chilly night, isn't it?'

Mr. Beverly was not wont lo Kek his trusted friends among those who " Mercy ! " cried the former, " I wouldn't have been in his place when Florence had been reared ifi luxury and ease. On a certain occasion Mr. Beverly was heard to remark that he would rather give his daughter in marriage to a man oor fn purse, who could give herUhe wealth cf a pure, upright heart, than t,li,e possessor of iri: lions, whose manhood was tainted in the least degree. This remark came to the know 1 he clerks, and it is not surprising that they thereupon experienced- wild and brilliant daV-dream in which most stupendousTind 'dazzling, castles ' were constructed in the air. As time passed on they became more "aviiliar with FloreHce's sweet smile and h.velv face, and were admitted to a degree of friendship which proved at least Beverly came upon the scene for all the money in Boston." "It was certainly humiliating," asserted the other. "But," he added reflectively, "Acton never was really high-toned.

But the morning brought a new revela tion.

Through the kindness-of a friend Lewis and J5urf ce had managed to secure a team for the afternoon, and they drove out upon one of the Brighton roads. Out in the country they met the superb double cutter of Mr. Beverly, drawn by a pair of rattling bays. Upon the front scat sat tlie mer chant and his wife, and upon the back seat, smiling and chatting with all the grace and chaini of friends who had given to each other the fullest trust and confi dence, sat George Acton and Florence Beverly!

"A little log ging puts a clock out of franae; a little pas sion, the heart. A man cannot wrestle with God and vrangle with his neighbor at tin same time. A florid, bat very truthful, writer gives the following graphic picture of real life in the pine woods of Mississippi.- He says: "The whole country east of Pearl river and south of the nothern line of Coving ton county, may be designated as the 'Pine Woods.' The entire region is remarkable for its salubrity. People make a comfort able living with so little effort that their energies are riot exerted, and the country does not improve like those sections where there are more difficulties to overcome. A young man marries a fine, blooming, in dustrious girl, who knows how to raise poultry, make cheese and butter, ply the wheel and shuttle, and do up her 'own and her husband's apparel. He begins life with a half-dozen cows, a pair of oxen, a pony and an axe. His wife's dowTer is a feather bed, three or four quilts, a frying pan, a spinning wheel, and a few fowls. He chooses a settlement five or ten miles from any other; builds a camp; then cuts down the sapling pines, strips off Lhe bark, calls in the neighbors for twenty miles a ronnd, and in one day they complete his cabin of one square room. This contains the bed, a table, a row of shelves, and his long rifle, that hangs over the fire-place on wooden hooks. In one corner stands the spinning wheel, seldom silent, and oh the shelf, near the door, a water bucket and gourd, on e or two milk piggins, scoured as fair and bright as sand and water can make them. A small 'truck patch,' and a little field planted in sweet potatoes, rice, and a few plants of indigo and tobacco lie adjoining. A sparkling spring, bubbling near by from its bed of ferns and rushes, supplies the purest water, and the light wood (or resinous remains of the decay ing pine) furnishes both fuel and brilliant dight.

His cattle range over a thousands hills, up to their shoulders in grass or succulent reed brakes, requiring neither shelter or winter forage, and, in the sea-board counties, not even salt.

Here, spread upon carpets lie iewels valued at $35,000,000. Chief among them is the Ivaiauian crown, shaped like a flower-pot, and topped by an uncut ruby as large as a hen's egg, and supposed to have come from Siam. Near the crown are two lamb-skin caps, adorned with splendid aigrettes of diamonds, iand before them lie trays of pearl, ruby and emerald necklaces, and hundreds of rings. Mr. Eastwick, w7ho examined the whole, states that, in addition to these, there are gaunt lets and belts covered with pearls and dia monds, and conspicuous among them the Kaianian belt, about "a foot deep, weigh ing, perhaps, eighteen pounds, -and one complete mass of pearls, diamonds emer alds and rubies. One or two scabbards of swords are said to be worth a quarter of a million each. There is also the finest torquoise in the world, three or four inches long, and without a flaw. There is also an emerald as big as a walnut, covered with the names of kings who have possess ed it. The. ancient Persians, prized the emeralds above all gems, and particularly those from Egypt. Their goblets deco rated with these stones were copied by the Romans. The Shah also ppssesses a pearl worth $300,000. ' Feat is Oratory. A member of the Legislative Assembly of Vancouver's Is land spoke in that House recently for sev enteen hours, in order to prevent a bill of much local interest from passing before the close of a certain day; which had been ap pointed as the limit of the time for making certain payments. The last twenty-four hours of the twelve-month alone remained, when this gentleman, Mr. McClure, began his speech. The Examiner says: "Every effort .was made by the majority to put him down and tire him out. With a merciless unanimity they refused to al low him to lean against the table, to put his foot upon a chair for a moment, to re lieve himself from the irksomeness of his position by resting his hand upon anything, or to speak, in short, in any other than a rigidly erect and unsupported attitude. During the whole of tho time they relieved each other at intervals, going out and pro curing such refreshments as they needed, and always leaving a quorum in the house. When McClure sank exhausted into his seat, Mr. De Comost rose, and for the re maininar seven hours of the t went y-four talked against time. On rising, amidst the groans and hisses of the disgusted and infuriated maiority, he exelaimed, with more force than refinement, that it was useless for honorable members to evince their malice in that: manner," for lie had got up with determination to talk, if nec essary, 'until the angel Gabriel sounded the last trump.' . His powers of endurance were not quite so severely tested; but the end was achieved j and when the clocK struck twelve the worn and wearied cham pion of honesty looked ronnd with pardon able exultation npon the blank faces of a bought and beaten assembly,' too often perhaps.
