THE PARIS EXPOSITION.

The most attractive curiosity at the French de-
partment of the Paris Exposition is newly inven-
ted cravat pin Everybody has seen how bells are
rung in all the new hotels Instead of pulling the
bell and making it ring by an exertion Of mechan-
ical force, we press small button in the wall this
is connected by an electric wire with little alarm,
the capper of which keeps on jinkEng so long as
button and the alarm ceases. This principle
French jeweller has adapted to cravat pins The
knob of the pin is Of various devices. 1t is hare
with tabor, or 4 drummer with his drum, or q
deaths head with loose under jaw, or dog
Whoever chooses to wear such a pin has connected
with it by wire small electrical battery in one of
his pockets, touches button there, and off goes
the pin. The hare begins to patter on the tabor,
the drummer to beat on his drum, the deaths
head to chatter and roll its horrid eyes, or the dog
to bark and snap. When the hand is lifted from
the button instantly all is quiet
In the British department curious swan at
tracts great attention. When wa approach the
bird we see him floating as if in water, and resting
his head behind his wings. He is wound up, and
begins to raise his head with all the proper motions
of the swan He curves his neck in pride; he
espies some fish in the water before him !. he low
ers his head to seize one he holds it in his beak
for an instant he then swallows it, and, last of all,
returns gracefully to rest The action is very pref
ty, and calls forth loud applause. The bird, how
ever, is indeed very old, though his plumage may
be new. ltsmechanism was supposed to have been
constructed by Mr.. Weekes who lived in the
reign of George III. but it was lately discovered
that it formed part of the museum Of Mr. Cox, q
London jcweller, who lived in the reign of George
H., and whose collection must have been Of some
importance, as he obtained an act of Parliament to
enable him to dispose Of it by lottery. Mr.. Harry
Emanuel has put the clock work mechanism in
order, and has given the bird new and beautiful
silver plumagc but this is all he had to do with
the invention of the toy, which proves so attrac-
tive to the multitude, and which seems to eclipse
all else in its neighborhood

CONCLUSION,

For three months the life of Innis seemed to be
suspended by hair, which the hand OF a child
might break with touch. Life and death strug'
glcd for the prize but life conquered.
Slowly his wound healed; and in the last bright
days of May he looked forth upon the world which
he was now once more to enter, as it were from
the po>tcrn Of the grave.
Honoria had, long since, completely recovered
from her wound and the terrible events of hel
marriage began to relax their painful hold upon
her mind. She seemed to look back on those wo
full events as Il hateful dream, and to cast them
from her as one banishes 4 nightmare when he
rises from his couch, and opens the window alo
looks forth into the happy sunlight.
She spent many hours of every day, with the
rest Of the family, in Innis' apartment, and the
faint smile on his lips, as he greeted her when she
appeared, was brighter to her, than the very light
Of day.
Thus passed the hours, and finally, Innis rose
from his couch, cured of his wound But they
were still together the young man and the girl -
and no one seemed to regard the circumstance as al
all singular.
But why should we lingcr out our story? Isit
not sometimes in veritablc history rs in romance,
that souls draw closer and closer to each other
that VOWS arc intcrchangcd- that hearts long sor-
rowfu, and torn by bitter woes, seek in each 9TH
cr the solace and the balm - and look to wedding
fayors as the decorations Of the fine picture Of the
future?
To end our narrative A year afterwards Innis
and Honoria were married. There had been nc
discussion on the subject of Haddon between Sil
Rein and the youth-it was tacity understood that
this would be obviated by the marriage Wheth'
er Sir Rein and Lady Brand were the guests OF
their daughter and their son-in-l law or the son,
in-law and daughter the guests of the baronet was
unmportant. They would all live together and
be happy together That they were happy, we
have no doubt. if tradition can be credited.

a8n Before the war, the negro women Of the
South constituted nearly one-half the field force in
the light labor of cotton culture Even last year
they worked in the field to a considerable extent;
but Southern correspondent writes that this year
they have almost entirely withdrawn from it. They
declare that the white ladies never work out, but
are supported by their husbands that it ought to
be so, and that they (the blacks) will not submit
any more to out door work.

ria upon her bosom, and the young lady was Sob
bing violcntly-but those sobs brought no sorrow
to the listeners Rather, a wild joy-a sudden
rush of blessed relief They proved that the wound
she had received was not mortal. In an instant,
Sir Rein had learned the truth, and on his knees,
BY the bedside, uttered broken words Of thanks
and prayer.
The bloody poignard lay upon the night-table.
1t had not entered the young adys bosom, but
merely inflicted flesh wound on the arm-not
otherwise dangerous than any such hurt must prove
upon the frame of Il delicate woman.
The flow of blood had been profuse and Homo
ria was soon completely exhausted by agitation and
weakness; but when the neighboring physician,
who had been hastily summoned made an ezaml-
nation of the wound, he declared it not necessar-
ly dangerous. and apt to yield readily otrcatment.
Innis was his next care Here there far less
hope-indeed little or none. The weapon of Lord
Ruthven had penetrated the young mans breast,
and narrowly missing the heart, inflicted terrible
wound, from which it was next to impossible Tor
the youth to recover He remained completely
unconscious; and the old physician, with shake
of the head, informed Sir Rein, who held the
young mans wrist, feeling the almost impercept-
able pulse that the patient would doubtless llnger
for two or three days, but his death was mere
question of time.
AS the proud old baronet left the apartment with
last look at the countenance Of lnnis, which was
deadly pale he dashed sudden tear from his eye,
and his bosom heaved. Such were the events Of
the wedding night at Haddon.
