4 sENsITIJ.E LOVER.


Count was one Of the handsonest
and most accomplished young men in
Vienna. He was passionately in love
with giri Of almost peerless beauty.
She was the daughter OF a man Of great
rank and influence at court, and on these
considerations, as well as in regard to
her charms, she was followed by a null
titude Of suitOrs. She was lively and
amiable, and treated them all with an
af;lbility which still kept them in her
train, although it was generally known
that she had avowed a prediction for
Count NJ, and that preparations
were being made for the nupdals. The
count was OF a refined mind and delicate
sensibility. He loved her for herself
alone-for the virtues which he believed
dwelt il q beautiful form; and, Ike a
lover OF such perlections, he never ap-
preached her without timidity, and when
he touched her fire shot through his
veins that warned him not to invade the
vermilliOn sanctuary of her lips. Such
was his ferling when, one night at his in
tended father-in-law's, party Of young
people were met to celebrate certain
festival. Several Of the young lady's re-
jected suitors were present.
Forfeits were one Of the pastimes, and
all went on with the greatest merriment
until the count was commanded by some
witty mademoiselle to redeem his glove
by saluting the check Of his intended
bride. The count blushed, trembled.
advanced to his mistress, retreated. ad-
vanced again, and at last, with tremor
that shook every fibre in his frame, with
a modest grace he put the soft ringlet
which played upon her cheek TO his lips,
and retired to demand his redeemed
pledge in evident confusion. His mis-
tress gayly smiled and the game went
on. One Of her rejected suitors, but who
was Of merry, unthinking disposition,
was adjudged by the same indiscreet
crier Of the iorfeits, as his last treat be

siss.sei, kiss from fhe lisss o.! she object
Of his recent VOWS" A lively contest
between the lady and gentlemen lasted .
a minute; but the lady yielded, though
in the midst Of a convulsive laugh. And
the count had the modification, the ae-
ony, to see the lips, which his passionate
and delicate love would not allow him
to touch, kissed with rougnness and rep
etition by another man, and one whom
be despised. Without word he rose
from his chair, left the room and the
house, and by that good-natured kiss the
fair boast Of Vienna lost her husband and
her lover The count never saw her

HEIP EAC8 oraER.

A father was walking one day in the
aelds with his two children. The wind
was blowing over a fine field of ripe corn,
and making the golden ears wave like
the waves of the sea.
.Is it not surprising said one OF the
children. that the wind does not break
the slender stalks of the corn?',
my child, said the father, "see how
how flexible the stalks arel They bend
before the wind and rise again when
the wind has passed over them. See,
roo. bow they help 10 support each
other. A single stalk would soon bend
70 the ground, but so many growing
close together help to keep each other
up. If We keep together when the
troubles of life come on Us ike a
stormy wind, we shall keep each other
M. when ore trying to stand alone would
fall"

AN enormous pump has been placed
in one of the Pennsylvania metal estab-

probably the largest pump, therefore,
in the country, if not in the world. 1t is
a vertical condensing engine, ten feet
stroke, with q clynder of cast iron one
hundred and ten inches in diameter, the
total weightof the cylinder, with its head
and bottom, being forty tons. The
piston-rod is fastened to the cross-head
by steel nut weighing LOO pounds.
There are two fy-wheels, each thirty
five feet in diameter, and each of them
weighing ninety-two tons The walking
beam is in four parts, and weighs in all
some ninety-fye tones, it gives a motion
to four plungers and four lift pumps,

NOTING the fact that the exporta-
tion Of American cottons is steadily in
creasing, the Pittsburg Commercial
thinks the probabilities point to the
United States ultimately taking rank as
the foremost exporter of cotton goods
among the nations OF the earth. The
monthly rate of expol tation during the
present year has been over 500 packages,
which if carried out to the close of the
year viii make the export for the twelve
calendar months something over 100000
packages. This is matter Of just pride
10 every American citizen who desires to
see his country compete successfully in
the consuming markets of the world.
THE military foreeof England, militia,
yeomanry, and volunteers included, is
reckoned at 470, ,766, of which 19l, ,S34
are regular troops. The navy numbers
$4,000 men. Germany has 1857 600
troops of all arms and classes, with
naval force of $4,000 The Austrian
army, including all reserves, numbers
100000 men, with about IA, 500 in the
