Ralph Leicester proved himself lamen-
tably wanting in such pride at that mo-
ment, though, as a rule, meekness was
not counted among his virtues. His
face softened marvelOusly as he returned
theprogramme, and there was an earnest
ness in his voice which Margaret's ear
was quick to discov, r, though he only
said :
"No. % is our dance, I believe ?"
IF you still care to claim it." she
answered, blushing, and the next mo-

more whirled her off into the dance.
If he still cared to claim it Ay,
did he not That, and great deal more
besides, as Margaret found when she
once again paced the terrace, with Ralph
Leicester as her companion and that
such claim had been accepted Cecil was
not slow to discover when he watched
their return to the ballroom after more
than an hours absence.
There goes for my first attempt in
the good line" said he, looking after
them somewhat ruefully, "and a pre-

as the French have it, 'Ce NEST qlte Le

DDN'r SUIT HER.-'Twas q shawl the
girl wanted. Now the polite merchant
prides himself upon his good taste, aud,
having large stock of shawls, thinks
that where he fails to suit it is useless
for any one else to try. He selected a
shawl and arranged it in the manner
now worn, having some trouble in get
ting it TO lay down in front just to his
notion. He succeeded, however, and,
stepping back a few PAGES, asked how
that suited. Humph," replied the
girl, CT wouldn't be found dead in the
woods with that shawl on" The shawl
was restored to the box by his affable
clerk

A British Prediction of the Future
of American Iron.

Notwithstanding the efforts Of our
British exchanges 10 convince themselves /
and their readers that the importation /.
of American iron into England Is i'm /
possible, the very idea of such a thing /
seems to be a nightmare Of horror to |
them. They cannot let the subject
drop, even for a week. Says Iron, in
its last issue:
"The tall talk of last week on the
importation Of American iron into Liy-
erpool has been supplemented by asser- |
tions that the mills of Pittsburg, Pa,
are rolling boiler plates for Ireland. and
that a large consumer in South Stafford
shire has lately concluded a contract
with a Pennsylvania rolling mill for
5000 tons finished iron. Although
many of the reports now flying about
viii be found destitute of foundation,
/ there is little doubt that the Americans
. have succeeded IN elDOwiug us out of
the Canadian market, and that both Au-
stralian and South American purchas-
ers of hardware are attracted by the
. beautifully finished American work,
which, although dearer, is infinitely
more saleable than ours. Great and
well founded apprehensiOns are enter
tanned that the development Of the i'm
LLADlLoC 4AAAA4N4 "a ANaN' IA 1N VI IL = LAAt's
viii seriously affect, if not entirely eX-
tinguish, our iron trade with America"
How much or little of truth there
may be in the statements above made
concerning American steel boiler plates
and finished iron for British cohsump-
tion, we are not prepared to say. We
have heard the stories, and are, cOnse-
quently, disposed to receive them c1lDl
sJranO sails; but Iron is right In what
it has TO say about our growing trade
with Canada, Australia and South Amer
lea, and is probably not far astray in its
predictions as to the ultimate benefits
which will follow the development of
the vast coal and iron resources of the
Virginias. The probable rapidIty of
this development may be estimated
from the fact that seven ore beds, sew
/ enteen coal mines and twelve furnaces
are now in operation on or near the line
of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad.
| Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama are
also developing their iron resources,
and in a few years the south will con-
tribute largely to the iron production
of the country. When that time comes
we shall not only have no use for Brit
ish iron, but we may have some of our
own make TO spare for such Of our
neighbors as may want it.

SAD AND SINGULAR ACCIDENT.-A very
sad, and at the same time most sinyu-

children of Mr.. Townsend, a boy and
girl aged respectively, 10 and II years,
were engaged in play. They commenc-

articles. The spirit of fun possessed
them, and from smaller articles they
began TO toss anything they could lay

Snohomish Correspondence.
LOWELL, June 13. 1S'

LOWELL, June 13, 1873.
EDITOR D1spATCH-We feel proud in
heralding to the world the fact that we
have taken measures for the establish
ment of public school at this place.
A meeting for that purpose was held to-
day; Martin Gltchel, Samuel Howe and
Amos Hurst elected Dir4 4ctors, and Z.
D. Smith school Clerk for District No.
S. The school will be Immediately or
eanized, a competent teacher emplo- ed
and al! suitable efforts be made to pro-
mote the welfare and pros erity Of the
school. There Is nothing iii the sur
rounding of Lowell to lead the youth
astray. The locality Is remarkably heal
thy, with highly intelligent end moral
society.
The 4th of July is to be celebrated
here in due form-the reading OF the
Declaration of Independence, all oration
and grand bail in the evening.
The Snohomish river is well up and
covered with logs, 1t being the usual
time of year when loggers run their logs
from camps above.
The news from Sultar river is encour
aging. Several new coal mines have
been recently discovered and indications
of good times are abundant.
The hay crop on the river is unusually
good, as is also the vegetable crop.
Many families are coming ON The riv-
er, making a permanent growth to our
settlements, and there Is abundant room
and land enough for many more, who
will be warmly welcomed by the present
settlers. We feel justified IN saying
that any thrifty and industrious man
who is seeking location for a home for
himself and family, cannot do better
than to come among us. We will do all
We can to help them along. Laborers
are scarce on the river; i'll fact any one
who wants to work can get work at fair
wages. The people here do not seem to
bother themselves about the terminus.
Ienlay truthfullv say that l have never
known q community that seemed more
contentad. or that attended more exclu-
siveIy to their own buslr ess.
Measures are bel, taken to cut a
road from Lowell to Seattle, or to some
point on Lake Washington, opposite
McGilrra's. Will not the people of Sc
attle help to forward the work?
