The Brothers Temptation.
BY E. H. REMINGTON.

the evening fire, 81 wish you to read to

No, no, you must excuse me tonight,
dear Blanche, for don't feel like read
ing and he shaded his eyes from the
penetrating glance which his sister cast
Upon him.
Blanche did not repeat her question, for
she had no habit of urging her brother to
do thing for which he seemed disinclin-
ed. She had noticed for some time past
that he seemed uneasy and disturbed in
mind for some cause unknown to her,
and no advance on her part could draw
him out, or elicit any remarks on the SUBJ
|ject Thus tonight she made no answer,
but gently took up her work and drew
near the light, resolving in her heart to
watch and endeavor to solve the mystery
it possible She felt troubled and sore
of heart. She tried to draw him into
conversation, but received nothing but
monosyllables, It was evident that some
thing laid heavy upon his mind, which
he wished to keep to himself. When the
time of retiring came, Blanche put up
her work, went to George, and STOPPING
|oyer him as he reclined upon the sofa,
kissed him tenderly, and murmured q
kind "good night" la
"Good night, DEAR he answered with
out rising or adding another word
Blanche left the room with q lingering
look behind, and retired to her chamber.
She could not understand her brothers
mood, and why lac should conceal any
thing from her. 1t distressed her to thus
be shut out from the secrets of one who
had never before given her cause for
either pain or trouble.
The moment the door closed behind
her, the whole manner of George Arnettt
changed He sprang to his feet and be-
gan to pace the loom with heavy strides
while his compressed lips showed him to

Fexcitmennt He continued to waFk the
floor for some time, then, a. if he had de-
cided the result of some debate in his
mind, he opened the door of the parlor,
stepped into the hall, took his cloak and
hat from the rack and was soon in the
street. The jar of the closing door was
distinctly heard by Blanche, and was the
first intinlation that her brother had left
the house. For what purpose had he
gone! She asked herself the question,
aud reasoned tor answer Where could
he be going at that hate hours He hard
ly ever stayed out beyond ten o'clock, and
she had never known him to leave the
house in that manner before. There was
truly mystery in his conduct. and this
troubled her. She could not suspect him
of doing a wrong act; that was impossi-
BILE to her mind, and she drove the
thought from her. She had just laid
down her book, which she had taken up
for the purpose of reading a few pages
before retiring for the night, and com
menced disrobing herself, when this sound
of the closing door below startled her
and caused her to pause. She could not

/ saw maiden young and fair,
With roses twined in her golden hair
A happy light was in her eye.
AS though an angel lowering nigh,
Was whispering thoughts OF other scenes,
Far fairer than the light that beams,
From the golden rays of the setting sun,
When night is here and day is zone.
She was sitting near flowing stream,
Beautiful as a summer dream,
When suddenly to her startled gaze, Ba fef
There appeared u form in brilliant maze,
And cried with deep sepulchral voice,
'' Here lady fair, quick, take thy choices"
While holding to her wondering sight
Two papers, each was folded tight. 8
The maiden took them quick, and read, }s'
The first with quiet tirmness said, 3@

Where pleasures flow, lives an elin band. Il

She folded quick, the paper dread,
And DO wing low her lovely head,
She quickly caught, with eager hand,
The other message from fairy land; e

With all your friends on this cold earth,
Where all is dark and cruel dearth, Gm
Then you'll be blest forever more, ba'
And sing with joy on the efin shore. FL Z
But, if you.wil not come with me,
Oh, lady, you will quickly see,
The strength and VIII of an elfn clasp;
He will seize your form in his eager grasp,
And bear you off to the realms of light,
leaving behind the shades of night.
For there is JOY with the elfn king,
That the SORROWS OF earth can never bring.
And there is beautiful mystical dream,
Down, down beneath this ripping stream,

That will swell your heart with its magi,

Say, will you go to the happy land,
Be queen of the mystical elfn band ?"
She gave one thought to her earthly home,
And one to the land beneath the stream.
Her lover was coming to meet her now,
But his charm was gone. Another dream
Had filled her heart. She turned away,
and gave her hand to the waiting fay. au
One moment. and she had disappeared. "a

She was happier far beneath the blue.
She never pinned for earthly joy,
For hers was bliss without alloy.
She never longed in thought or dream

Says the Oregonian y Pennsylvania
paper says that Hon. John Cessna Rep.)
of the Sixteenth Congressional District
OF that State, proposes to contest the
election in his district, in which he was
beaten by fifteen votes, on the ground of
the colonization of a large number Of
voters from Franklin and Somerset coun-
ties, who, he says, had no legal right of
suffrage except in their own district. 1t
is understood that the Hon. ID. j. Nor
rill will also contest for the scat in the
Seventeenth District, frauds having been
discovered whereby an apparent majority
of eleven was given to Speer, Democrat.
Congress ought at once to give Cessna
and Morrill, their seats. We never
were very clear as to how these things
should be done till the Democratic majors
ity in the Oregon Legislature showed us
the way. Taking their rule for it, there
is no question but Judge Wilson of this
State ought to have the scat to which one
Slater claims to be elected. He should
go to Washington next winter and get it.

A letter from London to the New York
Times has this : ''According to present
appearances the Prussians have more to
fear from climate and the difficulties Of
their position, than from the armies of
France. Around Metz, we are told by
the Germans, or correspondent with the
Germans, that the cattle are dying so
fast that it is difficult,,to bury them, while
typhus and dysentery are decimating the
troops. There is-typhus also even among
the comparatively well-sheltered troops
at Versailles. Famine also threatens the
investing army. Only by the most active
system of raiding over the whole area of
forty or fifty miles radius from Paris can
the army be fed This zone will be soon
exhausted. Three large forces must be
detached to ravage Normandy, and the
whole country between the Loire and the
English Channel Meantime the peas

ample which other desolated departmei is

is exhausted and the communications
with Germany are cut, ht w is the Prus-
sian army of half million of men to
be fed? France, the Times now tells us,
is becoming mad with hatred and the
| spirit of vengeance. In Germany the
spirit of freedom will be crushed for a
whole generation while the demon of war
will be lording it over Europe. The dis
