Tlicrc was n brightness, a freshWss and ft glow about Annie Breton that won eve rybody over to her before they wore aware of it. It was curious to note, that every i body agreed 'to this thing: that she was jJiota beauty, and could not bo termed ,! pretty. Come to analyze her to measure jt lie width U'lvvci'ii her eyes, length of her J now, proportions of her mouth "complex- mnHiiair really, there was not a single -remarkable feature. What it M as that fas cinated everybody that came near her few icould tell. As lor Annie herself, the chief cunrni was revealed in the fact that she ws wholly unconscious of her .charms." .So when Alien McDonald yonn Allen the richest man in the county laid, his lands, his elegant establishment and their owner at her feet one 'afternoon in Octo ber, on the russet -colored leaves, no one was more surprised than Miss Breton. .Stop! I will do her the justice to sav that she was prepared for the evidence of friendship; -sho had not entertained the idea of hi making her his wife. ; Her surprise, was transient, carefnltv j concealed. Ho saw that the dewy bright ness f her face w"as darkened a trifle, that was all. With the wlf-possession and grace of a iuceh..Mis3.iivtn asked timt ! consider. And Mr. McDonald- was comi licllel to- bo content with this answer. To Bay that the young man "was ill at case, mortified,- would scarcely convey the 4 ruth. Ho wus ungrv with himself for picking a refusal. " 'J. Al!"n.

'i can't conceive wlio it could be," re died Alll'i), thoughtfully. "Toucan run over your acquaintances nd fri:ds in vour mind. There is no one ettcij nciiuain'ted with her than mvself,' that I am aware of. hton! 1 es, there is a fethiw yon don't know him a carpen ter, or something of that sort, named Lane, jwho, by the way, has achieved distinction sis an architect.

It would be mortifying udeed to be outstripped by a poor me hanie, and ho with an income of seven hoiis'Jiud a year. "I see it disturbs yon. Have a care, n v bov," added hib friend. "1 11 1 wager you my ponies against a mir of gloves anything vou please," said lAllcn, hotly, "that I win the day." "Oh! don't be offended," replied the friend. ' Only, don't be too sure." "Will vou betr 4.'Sinco you persist, yes." "Done. Shake on that." 'With all mv heait, old fellow, and I hope you'll win." Had ho know n that he had a listener, ;nnd that tho listener was the subject of idiscussion, he would have been less confi- jlcnt, for in the ladies' waiting-room bc yond Annie .Breton lifted a finger warn ;inily as sho Maneed at her friend. It was n trying inoiuent for both. Miss Alj (ftAn pt her handkerchief up to her lips, Sand stifled a laugh. Again Annie'a finger, was held up wnrnitsgly. "Bo stilL It will; be very awkward if they eee us here," she added. - Luckily the operator entered at that moment, and thus relieved them of their suspense.- . , "Wo will say nothing about it," said Annie, gravely. "At the same time, I'll punish him." "That! for the 1 e.;t catch, : as yon call him. Beally, Miss Breton looked superb Lit that moment. "As if money1 could cv- r weigh ngainst brains, decency or love." "Mv dear," said Mh's Allston, "von and J kiKiw a host who are dying to be hon- .ofed by such tuention.

It sour times happens it often happens that a woman's chances for matrimonial advancement are flung together, Verifying tho old Facing, "It never rains but it Hours." It uaa so in Annie Breton's e?- ipcrience. The very next morning Arthur .ane called iit person, and proposed in a liua.nner that proved to her that to hira the jdccjsion was a question of . momentous im portanco. Ho was a man of deep feeliug, undemonstrative, but his embarrassment, Lis very silence pleaded for him as he de Iparted with tiro question still unsettled. i And now Miss Breton began to chide herself, and to marvel how sho could have .entertained Mr. McDonald's proposition.

She was so charitable as to credit him with more feeling than hft possessed, '"I have (billed, Miss Breton, for mv an swer." He bowed, flecked an atom of dust from his sleeve and sal down. That ac- uon nozo-Miss Jireton's sympathy "I almost regret that I did not not rive it at once. 7 Mister! So she had not had sufficient time. What a fool he was not to give her plenty of time. Of course, no 'girl liked the idea of selling herself cheap. 'My. dear Miss Breton, allow me to sav or permit me to call yon' Annie " .The quiet look she "navo him checked the speech.. He hesitated a moment: . "Yon surely do not mean perhaps' I did not, give you sufficient time. Take time, Miss Breton7 ' "I have considered." : "And you mean to tell me, Miss Bre ton " - "That I have 'pnt my heavrin the scales hginst a pair of ponies valued at two thousand dollars;" said Annie, with a curved lip, "and I Jind my heart heavier than the poriies.7'' . " And tho world .now says Mrs. Lane made a wise choice. Few 'men are" more respected and honored than her husband. The lesson did McDonald good; it did innch toward curing him of his vanity, be sides teaching him never to bet on woman's love. ' IVvom lu- ATta' CallCo i nimi. mUWAIREOTdilKX.

He" returned to San Francisco in. the fall of 18-jlj successively engaging in the li quor business with Col. W. C. Hotf, and the ship chandlery business w ith Ca'pt. W. J. Roemer. In this latter was laid, to a certain extent, the foundation of his future i immense wealth. In with his old j partner and friend, J. C.

In JSG7 the partners gave their undivided attention to mining, the result, of' which was that in a few years they drew to themselves such immense wealth that 'the name land power of the Bonanza King have -become a house hold word all the world over. The firm, whoso wealth it is impossible to esti mate, was composed of J. C. Flood, (with one-fifth interest), the late. W. S. O'Brien (w ith one'-lifi h), J. S.

Type Settixg In Javax. The ad vantages of aljdiabetic writing are nowhere more conspicuously shovvu than in a large printing office. The compositor stands within easy reach of every character he may have need of, and a boy can learn the position of each letter in the case in a few hours. It is quite another matter wher,e each word has a distinct character, as in China and Japan. A 'correspondent, de scribing the ; ofTiee of a Japanese paper, says that a full font of type comprises fit v thousand characters, of which' three thous and are in constant use, and for two thous and more there are frequent -calls. The typo is "disposed about the composing room on racks, like those in a reading room, and the compositors wander up and down the aisles setting type and taking exercise at oace. With so many charac ters it is no wonder that Japanese proof readers have to be men of intelligence ami high scholarship. ; - The impossibility of telegraphing si node- character words has kept this great instru- metitH civilization tn foreign hands, and made it practically useless for the natives of China and Japan.

The scene . wjfs never more atT cting; sobs were heard on all shies. The speech was so heartfelt that the audience felt sure it was part of the play that the dying Eva was supposed to have a vision of a lost brother, waiting on the mystic shore for the launching of the little life leaving this, and many, of them no dotil.t feel cheated to this day of a clever point by the cutting down of Eva's death speech to the words, "Love! joy! peace!" : COLOSSAL STATL'E OR XAPOLEOX I. ! t There exists in England a-sculptured elligv of Napoleon I. by Canova, vi. : the colossal statue, 1G Roman palms high, in Carrara ' marble, completed and sent to I'aris in 1811, and now m the possession of the Duke of Wellington, at. Apslcy. House. I he statue is nude, and. holds m the right hand A globe surmounted by a winged figure of Victory. T,his statue has a brief but curious history. When the Allies entered Paris in 181a, for the sec ond time, Canova, who was in the train of allied sovereigns, was extremely anxious to know what had become of his mastcr- inece. Baron Denon. Curator of the mu seum of the Louvre, denied all knowledge of the work, nor could the intendants of the ex-imperial palaces furnish any infor mation. One official,, however, had a hazy recollection of the Empress Maria Lou isa having expressed herself as eX tremely shocked at the representation of her august consort in so complete a state of divestiture' from his traditional boots, buckskins, and great gray coat. At length the statue turned up, half unpacked, in a lumber room at the (Jarde Malmle. 1 he triumphs of 18il had been followed witl terrible swiftness bv tho disasters of Mos cow and Eeipsic, and the colossal memori al had been wholly forgotten. Of course it had now become the property of the French Government. Louis Xv III., how ever, would have none of it, and present ed the marble to the Prince Regent. Had Can ova's Napoleon possessed as much as a kilt, the figure might have been retained by royal tyf but like Hans Breitinjinn's mermaid, it had "nodings on;" so Ceorge IV . presented it to the Croat Duke, au at the foot of the grand staircase at Apslev House the sumptuous efiigy stands to this day. ; Jet vines are made very lastefjllv for collarettes and neck laces, THUI'JSDA?, A foot; ' ' ;C!arcnce ""Xc v.
