"Half bewildered and half amused,
resolved TO follow up the adventure. In
deed was allowed no time to delibe-
rate, for my impatient friends hurried me
into the interior Of the church, which
was family lii up by two or three torches.
A girl was seated on a bench in the
shadow, while another standing beside
her was rubbing her temples.
SAT length, said the latter God be
praised that you are comel My mistress

"They assisted the young girl to rise
she seemed very pretty. Through .
levity quite objectionable, and, as il now
seems to me, inconceivable, 1 advanced
beside her to the altar. Her servant and
the three men who were present were SO
much occupied about her, that they
scarcely glanced at me; besides, the light.
as have said, was very dim, and my
head was enveloped in the fur hood Of
my travelling pelisse.
la few moments we were married.
"'Embrace each other,' said one Of the
witnesses My wife turned her pale face
towards me. For an instant she gazed
as if petrified, then, falling backwards,
she exclaimed

"Out of the church rushed, before

"And" said Mari, "did you never

MANI"
"Never. | do not know the name of
the village where L was married, nor can
L recollect that of the station where I
last stopped. AT that time, SO little i'm
portance did L attach to my criminal
levity, that, when all danger Of pursuit
was over, i fell asleep in the sledge, and
did not awake until | found myself at
another station. The servant whom I
had with me was killed in battle, so that
every clue seems lost by which might
discover the scene Of that folly which /
now expiate so dearly.p
Mari turned her pale face fully towards
him, and seized his hands.
"Whatl" cried Vourmin, "was it your"
"Don't you recognize me?"
A long and close embrace was the
reply.

SOUND SENTIMENTS. With all of Henry
Ward Beecher's idiosyncrasies, he has
said some sensible things during the war,
and the following are some of them. In
a discourse on Sunday, the 18th inst, at
Brooklyn, New York, he said:
In alluding to such as are confined in
our military prisons, unconscious of what
is charged against them, he deprecated in
unmeasured terms the action of any gov
ernment, and especially of this govern
ment, which should take away, without
trial and without verdict, the dearest
rights and liberties of the people. He
did not believe that it was we'll, or in any
way justifable, to confne for weeks and
months, in the dark depths of dungeon,
men who might, if opportunity was Of
fered, prove themselves absolutely guilt
less of the crime charged upon them
He considered such trihing with the
rights of the people dangerous to our
liberties and dangerous to our institutions,
and when people were found willing to
submit to it, it was more dangerous yet.
"Nor did he believe in the muzzling of
the press. Under certain extreme condi-
tions he thought it might with modera-
ton be tried, but it was far better to let
the press alone; it was with US an abso-
lutte necessity, and it would be as sense
less to take away the air from our prisons
as from us the right of printing. III
this is treason said he, Il shall be
traitor again and forever"
There are no real, genuine lovers of
the Union and of our free institutions,
who will not applaud the sentiments
above expressed, and insist that they bo
practically carried into execution.

The LITTLE ONEs.-Do you ever think
how much work child does in day?
How, from sunrise to sunset, the dear
little feet patter round-to us, so aim
lessly. Climbing up here, kneeling down
there, running to another place, but never
still. Twisting and turning, rolling,
reaching and doubling, as il testing every
bone and muscle for future uses. 1t is
very curious to watch it. One who does
so may well understand the deep breath
ing of the rosy little sleeper, as, with one
arm over its curly head, it prepares for
the next days gymnastics. Tireless
through the day, till that time comes,
as the maternal love that so patiently ac-
commodities itself, hour after hour, to its
thousand wants and caprices, real or fan
cied.
a busy creature is little child. To
be looked upon with awe as well as de-
light, as its clear eye looks trustingly
into faces that to God and man have es-
sayed to wear mask. AS it sits down
in its little chair to ponder precociously
over the white lie you thought it funny
to toll il. AS rising and leaning on your
kneos, it says, thoughtfully, in a tone
that should provoke tear, not smile
off l don't believe it." a lovely and
yet fearful thing is that little child.

Rctrcnchment il the stern necessity Of the
hour. 1t has long enough been party cry, Oh
which one or another faction has secured II four
years' lease OF patronage and plunder II has
non become vital necessity. Unparalleled ex-
penditures are being made, and tic nation will
soon be staggering under burdens which, as yet,
il has hardly become sensible Of. Better rctrcnch
now than have administrative functions cmbar-
rassed, with soldiers unpaid, murmurng aud dis
contented, six months hence. The nation has
already been plundered OF at least 800, 100000,
but it is not yot too late 10 avoid embarrass-
ment by economy and honesty.
But TIE schemes of Reform thus far proposed
are miseraby inadequate They merely stop D
few uDimportant driblets, while e mighty stream
of prodigality aud corruption rushcs on un-
checked. What We need, what we must have, is
not merely o reduction of salaries but the jnargu-
ration Of strict official accountability. While
which would save only three or four millions an.
nually, the wealth OF tbe people ia swallowed up
by tens Of millions in ways which no one nos q
neoplyte in political life in Washington can BE-
ignorant Of Representatives have you the

Need we SOY again that this is wholly untrue
What those they term Radicals demand and

preservation or overthrow OF Slavery be held
altogether subordinate to the restoration of tho
