The Latest Saratoga Romance.

The newest romance at Saratoga concerns a
sable gentleman at one of the hotels. The
colored individual, it appears, has become in
fatuated with the leading belle of the house
where he is employed. His position is that
Of a waiter at the young lady's table. His at
tentions are said to be growing interesting
with each day, and the object of his affections
honors him, whether in earnestness or no re-
mains to be seen. Her family represent that
she is only keeping up the filtration as
prank. Her cavalier, while most ardent ad-
mirer, is very respectful, combining his devo-
tions to occasional "hopes dat she will nebber
forget him, uttered between the course, in an
undertone. He varies his remarks by such
vows as DE debbil himself couldn't stop me
in fotchin' you dat watermelon" "You is a
queen dis mornin'." Never a meal but what
he has an elegant bouquet of flowers before
her place at the table. Othello and BESIDE
mona over again, but it looks as if Othello
will get the smothering this time"

herds being at present on the range in
Kansas, sold to feeders, contractors or others,

A STREET SCENE.

They were melancholy pair. The rain
poured down in torrents upon tneir un.
covered heads, and yet they grumbled not,
neither did they move. Shoeless, footsore
and weary, they bore the inclemency of the
weather with stoicism truly remarkable.
The rain ceased, and the bright, warm sun
shone down in its full radiance upon them,
and yet they exhibited no signs of life or even
animation.
They had evidently come from afar, and the
utter lassitude which characterized them gave
evidence of the WEAKNESS occasioned by their
long and tedious journey from the silent and
melancholy swamps to the busy heart of the
great city. They had come, bearing the fruits
of the farmers toll to the markets of the city,
and vet all unconscious did they seem of the
value of their services or of the precious bur-
den they bore.
They had evidently felt the pangs of unsat-
isied appe,ites, and had apparently been
frequently on the ragged edge of starvation.
They exhibited great lack of true inward
ness, for their scarce covered frames were
plainly visible, and gave evident signs of an
empty habitation. Their lord must clearly
have been pitiful farmer and pitiless mas
ter, for they exhibited plainly the lack of that
care which provident owners bestow upon
their beasts of burden.
Anxious and fruitless, hoping for better
things had SO wearied them that their heads |
hung low in utter dependency, and they |
seemed deeply brooding over their experience |
of the ''rarity of human charity" The har- |
ness wherewith they were harnessed was old |
and almost worthless, and the vehicle to |
which they were attached needed the utmost |
care to prevent its absolute dissolution. 1t |
contained few large and half filled baskets |
of fruit and vegetables, but alas, no food for |
the hungry animals upon whom it depended |
for its homeward journey.
Verify it seemed as if they doubted whether |
longer service would result in better re- |
ward, or whether their desertion would in |
volve their owner in great moral Niagara of
regrets and infinite troubles.
Presently the owner came, mounted his |
rickety seat, and after little argument and |
much coaxing prevailed upon them to pursue
their homeward course, and, as he moved |
away, turned and cast sad glance upon the
boy, who remarked that his steeds were ele-
CANT frames, but ought to be weather boarded.
They faded away in the distance, and the
small boy turned the corner and vanished.

ante-belum friend the other day for the first
time since the war, and the old mans delight
at seeing one of Massa's ticker friends in old
times was unbounded After hearty hand
shaking and protracted laugh peculiar to
the Southern darkey the gentleman asked:
"Well, Uncle Joe, how are you getting
along in the world ?"
"Sorter slow, Marse -. Been had rheu-
matiz right smart lately and things amt gone
'zactly right nohow, replied the darkey.
"a great many changes have taken place
since / last saw you, Uncle Joe. Death has
taken your old master away, and the family
are scattered about the four quarters of the
globe, the farm is divided up, and strangers
occupy the old house. 1t makes one feel
right sad, Uncle Joe, to think of the changes
that have been wrought by old Father Time"
"Yaas," replied Uncle Joe. "You mem

We clip with unfeigued pleasure This manly
acknowledgment from the Cincinnati "a.
9uirer:
1t is perhaps very unfortunate, but il so
happens, that nearly every intelligent honest
man in the South went with his people into
the rebellion. The men in the South. who
are fitted by education, cultivation aud
brains to fill the place of leaders are for the
most part ex-Confederates. The people of
the South went into the rebellion and have
been forgiven. 1t is natural that they should
select as representative men the men who
have always represented them.-Co!unlbus

by three of the most popular female
writer's for children-Rose Terry Cooke.
Emily Huntington Miller ami NJ. Alcott.
The number has also one OF the Iiveliest
and most natural boys stories that have
appeared for months, written by Rossiter
johnson, and entitled "a Great Specula-
ton" No true boy will fail to appre-
hend it. Then there is an article on
"How to Make Boat" which will doubt
less set hammer and saw to going. and
introduce to the waters Of lake or river
many a shapely craft, built by the same
Young hands and arms that man it..
Our patriotic pride is awakened by the
fine portraits and anecdotes of "Ameri-
can Orators"-and the Fourth-of~July
spirit ia addressed by an historical
sketch of the first naval battle in
American waters one hundred years ago,
and by the contrasted pictures Of "Our
Flag" then and now. The account by a
Nebraska woman, of "How the Grass
hoppers come" thoroughly proves its
authorship by the SAVIOR of reality IN its
vivid portrayal of the devastation and
dlsmay which followed the coming of
these small but destructive marauders.

tribute Two capital stories for girls. The
poems of the number are excellent; the
illustrations are up to the usual stand
