urday evening We would be early enough to
give warm greeting to the new wife.
But neither weddings nor weather can make
us for many hours forget the more intensely
interesting theme Of politics. Last night the
extended sessions III both branches of Con-
gress gave us the beautiful spectacle of the
Capitol completely lighted. The tholues
looked like some brilliant star set in the
heavens alone for the dome was dark be-
meath then Just above the root Of either wing
the lesser domes showed their half-spheres Of
light, while from the countless windows Of the
whole building there flashed such beautiful
our splendid Capitol as to make our hearts
thrill with pride III our national greatness.
And now, Just now, the long uncertainty
concerning Pnchback is over. To use the
forceful but inelegant smile of the door
keeper in our gallery, " he is denier than a
last years mackerel." He has certainly made
a gallant fight for the seat he so much GOV
eted, and showed more bravery than the SEN
ators who dared not openly reject him, but
lodged the question BY laying him on the
table
Now wonder what he viii do abon. it.
This programme doesn't relieve the President
at all and certainly is cowardly Sinking on
the part Of those whose radical measures have
done so much to bring about such q state Of
affairs. " 1t Is distressing to be kept in Sus-
pense, said the teon who was about to be
hung; pray cut Inc down quick =" And so

A Painters Romance.

THE Washington National Republican
gives the following romance in the life
of Walter ingalls,, the painter, who died
recently: Quite early in life he fell,
when he was poor, in love with New
Hampshire girl, the daughter of we'll
to.do farmer. She was really the belle
of Sanborton, and had rather lofty ideas
of the kind of man she would like to
marry. His attachment was reciprocGted,
and they were engaged. Still, on the
lady's part the affection was not so deep
seated as it might have been, and besides
her choice was opposed by her parents.
They could not see in the humble painter
"a man destined to have kings spiritual
and kings temporal sitting before his
easel-a man worthy of their daughters
hand. The result of it was the engage
ment was broken off, and ingalls, mar
ried another lady. His first affianced
also married. Each of them had chill
dren-she daughter and he a son. Af-
ter they had grown up they met-the son
and daughter-in the Crescent City.
Strangely enough, so intricate, delicate
and beautiful are the avenues Of love
that they too fell into the embrace of
the tender passion, and, after short
courtship, were engaged to be married.
Twenty-Five years before that their father
and mother had been similarly bound,
and, like them, they for some cause
broke off the engagement as their par
ents had done before them. In the mean
time Mr.. ingalls, had buried his wife, and,
happening to meet this daughter Of his
first betrothed a mutual affection sprang
up between them, and they were mar
rieG. There was perhaps quite forty
years difference in their ages but there
never was a truer marriage. His love
and regard were infinite. Her devotion
and tender care were beautiful She was
his cLild, he her father. He was the
oak, she the vine. He the keystone Of
the arch, she its lovely curve. He the
power, and she the beauty of life that
was all grace, affection and piety. He
had been dead only three weeks when
she left earth to join him in heaven.
From the day of his loss she refused TO
be comforted. Her grief was too deep
for tears, and words of consolation were
unheeded. One evening she retired for
the night apparently in good health. She
complained neither of pain nor sickness,
but in the morning she was stone-dead

The Finance Bill.

A WASHINGTON Associated Press dis
patch gives the following as the leading
features of the new Finance bill agreed
upon by the Senate Republicans in eau
Gus on the 10th and passed by the Senate
on the 22d:
First-Free banking to be open to all individu-
ais and associations without Limitation of capital.
SecOnd-The retiring Of amount of green
backs equal to so per cent. of the amount of the
new National Bank notes issued until the green
back circulation shall be reduced to S30O 90 600
after which no further reduction of greenbacks is
to take place. Ii is claimed that BY this pro-
vision there will be neither expansion nor con-
traction OF the currency, as about ~ per cent Is
now required as bank reserves.
Third-The withdrawal and destruction Of frac-
tional currency and the substitution fsiver coin,
the arrangement to go into effect as soon prac-
ticabe under the direction of the Secretary of the
Treasury, who il authorized to any surplus
money for supplying coin, and, If this is not su-
cient to sell the requisite amount of bonds OF the
new series to obtain the funds for that purpose.
FOaTth-Removing the cost for the coinage OF
gold at the several mints.
Finh-Resumption of specie payments to COM
mence on the first day of January, ls79.
The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to
use any surplus specie in the Treasury; and If
that is not sufficient, sell bonds in order to OBJ
tam gold to pay Treasury notes. But this last
provision does not. like the others go into imme-
diate effect. The Legal-Tender act remains un-
disturbed.

A Legend Of the Iron Mask.

DURING the seventeen years confine-
ment of this strange prisoner at Sainte
Marguerite, st. Mars, who brought him
to the fortress, was replaced by Mon
sieur de Bonpart as Governor. The
daughter of the latter, Just emerging
from childhood to womanhood, grew up
with this mystery around her. She had
seen the graceful figure of the masked
prisoner promenading at night upon the
terrace and at worship in the chapel,
where he was forbidden to speak or un-
cover his face, the soldiers in attendance
having their pieces always pointed to-
ward him if he should attempt to do
either. She discovered that her father
always treated him with the greatest re-
spect, serving him bare-headed and
standing. His table service was of mas
sive silver, his dress of the richest vel
vet; he wore the finest linen and most
costly lace. She had heard her father
accidentally speak of him as "the
Prince" No wonder that his sad fate
occupied her thoughts by day and his
noble figure haunted her dreams by
night. She, too, was very young and
beautiful, and their eyes occasionally
met in chapel. She sang beautifully and
was very skillful performer on the
guitar. 1t is said she climbed the rocks
under the castle terrace and sang sweet
songs to the poor captive. Thus ro-
mantle love sprang up between them,
and, as it gained strength, the young girl
dared to purloin the keys from her father
and so obtained access to the pris-
oner. When the Governor discovered his
child's treachery he was struck with dis
may. His oath was binding upon him to
put Immediately to death anyone who
had spoken to the prisoner. But she
confessed her love for him and pleaded
piteously for her young life. The cap
tive also, to whom the Governor was
much attached, joined his prayers to hers
and implored that they might be made
man and wife, and then the secret would
he safe. The Governor was not stern
enough to immediate his child, and per-
haps gleam of ambition may have
flashed across his mind as, in the event
of the death of Louis XIV, the prisoner
would be acknowledged and his daughter
sit on the throne of France. However.
their nuptials were performed by the
priest of the castle in the dead of night,
and all were sworn to secrecy From
this union two children were born. A
whisper OF this reaching the ears of the
Minister, the Marquis of Louvois, the
prisoner was Immediately removed to
the Bastile for safer keeping; and the
mother, the priest and Governor disap-
peared. The children were sent to Cor
sica to be brought up in ob5curity under
the name of their grandfather, Bonpart,
which was corrupted into Buonaparte.
And thus, says the legend Providence
avenged the wrongs of the twin brother
of Louis XIV. and restored the oldest
branch of the Bourbon line to the throne
of France.-"Bdzdine's Prison." Scrtbner
