he, with sudden holiness.

Her lips writhe,, and her eyes shot fire.
Should she breathe the scorn she felt, and
brave the worst I? Or should she tempo
rise =? Time might bring about change,
when she could safely send the mercenary
suitor back to his dusty and cobwebbed
Office.

"Oh, your youthful ardor and impetu-

Il must bid you good afternoon. Squire

So Mr.. Clamp was bowed ont. He
did not clearly understand her quick and
subtle movements, but he felt sure of his
game in the end The scornfnl irony that
had played about him like electricity he
had not felt.
When he was gone. the woman'S worst
enemy would have pitied her distress.
She believed more than ever that Clamp
had nsed Lucy to abstract her papers. and
that he now would hold his power over
her to bring about the hated marriage
Her frmness gave way; she sank on the
sofa and wept like child Would that
she might yet retreat But no, the way
is closed up behind her. She must go on
to her destiny.

WHOLE NUMBER, SO.
The Value of One Square Mile in Viz
GINA.

One square mile of ground in the city
of New York, even calculating It at
Sl00, 900 per acre, which is much more
than it would bring, except in favored
localities, would be worth S64 600, 600,
and yet we can find several localities IN
the mountains of Virginia which are n
reality far more valuable. One of these
may be found between Smyth and Wash
ington Counties, on the north fork Of the
Holston, and is known as Saltville, the
estate of Col. Thomas Preston. One
square mile within the circumference Of
the salt basin. including also the gypsum
formation within the same area, we can
show by close calculation, to be worth
not only more than one square mile in the
city of New York, but more than tbs
whole city. .--.
The salt rock within this mile ranges
from seventy to one hundred feet in thick
ness, which would yield a nett ton, or
forty bushels of salt to every solid yard
it contains, or over three thousand miE-
lions Of bushels which when mannafac-
tured, is worth from forty to fifty cents
per bushel. But, presuming it to be worth
twenty cents per bushel in the ground,
and we have six hundred millions OF dol
lars, to which we must add two hundred
and fifty millions of tons of plaster with
in the same space, worth in the ground
about one dollar per ton, making total
Of eight hundred and fifty millions Of
dollars. 100
In another place we estimated the value
Of this mineral deposit at only twenty
eight hundred million bushels of salt,
without reference to the plaster or the
land and Improvements. But the present
one we make as boast against anything
that the world can produce, and of course,
have not allowed any Contingencies" in
our calculations. The one square mile
alluded to above contains about all the
salt, but not a tenth part of the plaster.
The estate contains about 10000 acres.
We might also choose a square mills
on the iron mountains of Allegheny
County, which. when properly developed,
would be worth more than all the farms
in Virginia; or we might choose a square
mile of the best lead property at the old
Wayne lead mines, and, only estimating
it according to the yield up to the pres
ent time, at a moderate profit in the
ground, and our figures would run into
millions.--RickmOnd Enquirer.

eye see, Mildred felt a little hurt about
a letter but knsp there was some mis-
take; so 1 want a-goin to hev you 60
off 'thout some explanation"
"a letter ?-explanation 90 said Mark,
thoroughly bewildsred.
"Here it is" said Mildred, taking a
Letter from her pocket, still looking down
Mark hastily took aud opened it. The
envelope bore Mildred's address, in a
hand not unlike his own; the enclosure
was a letter from Mildred to himself,
which he now saw for the first time.
Mildred, said he. holding out his
hands, "could you doubt me 90
She covered her face with her apron,
but stood irresolute. He looked again at
the letter.
"Why, the clumsy trick, Mildred =
This postofice stamp, New York. is not
genuine. Just look it is a palpable
cheat, on imitation made with pen. The
color did not spread, you see, as ink mix
ed with oil does. This letter never left
this village. never saw it before-could
not have seen it. Do you donbt me now,
dear Mildred ?"
Even if the evidence had been less
convincing, the earnest, heartfelt tone, the
pleading look and gesture, would have
satisfied a much more exacting woman.
She sprang towards her lover, and flung
her arms about her neck. The pent up
feeling of days and weeks rushed over her
like food, and the presence of Mrs. AL
ford was forgotten.
Mrs. Afford, it would seem, suddenly
thought Of something for. gathering her
self up, she walked off as fast as the laws
of grSvitation allowed, exclaiming =
There l never did see Sech hens
Allus a-hyin' into the kitchen Iwonder
now, who left that ar door OPEN"
The frightened cackle of the hens, the
rattling of pots and pans by the asSidu-
Gus housewife in the kitchen, were I'M
needed by the lovers, "empsradised in
one another's arms" The conversation
took too wide a range and embraced too
many trivial details to be set down here
Only this may say: they both believed.
as every enamored couple believes, that,
though other people might cherish the
properest affection for each other, yet no
man or woman ever did or could expert
ence such intense, and all-pervading emo
ton as now thfobbed in their breasts-in
fact, that they had been created to exem-
plify the passion, which, before, poets had
only imagined. Simple children ! they
had only found out what hearts are made
