Cora. Next day we visited the United
States Mint, Lemon Hill, and various other
attractive places. for which the city OF
Penn is so justly celebrated.
My fair bride seemed to enjoy all this
amazingly. She spoke of what she saw in
terms Of high poetic appreciation, and ap-
peared to be as proud and happy as q
queen. 1t was yet morning in my welded
life, but the sunrise had been sweetly
bright and the surorsl rays gave promise of
q pleasant day. / felt that tor me at least
Paradise had been redeemed. My love was
great, and it's reward was greater.
On the following day, we lett for New
York, and when We had taken our places In
the railway car, found the seat just behind
US occupied by an old, white-haired gentle
man, about seventy years of age, and .
young man Of about thirty. Both seemed
to be farmers. and their conversation was
concerning an agricultural fair which they
had recently attended. The old gentle
mans name was King; he lived at Chelton
Hill, near the North Pennsylvania railroad,
and the young man, whose name was Har.
ris, appeared to be, not only q New Jersey
truck farmer, but dealer, also, in sgricul-
tural implements, seeds, etc.
They had IN interesting conversation
about fruit raising; how msnures should be
kept under shelter, in order to prevent the
escape of ammonia, and how apple and
pear trees should be treated and cultivated.
The old gentleman stated that the tendency
of all cultivated fruits was to go back to
their original type, and that through the
step. mother process alone could fruit rails
ing be made successful. The young ounce
md the German eberesh were, he said, the
pest foster-mothers of the apple and the
,ear. -.a-
Arriving ct New York We put up ct the St.

1t was after midnight when our revel
closed and we separated, he to seek his
hotel and my new home on Capital Hill.
l found after l started that had been
drinking altogether too much. My brains
and my legs we're both confused. Capital
Hill seemed higher than it ever was before,
and the streets had q thousand short turns
l had not previously observed. l began to
get disguised with Capital Hill. It was
not the airy, comfortable retreat had
fondly dreamed OF. 1t required too much
climbing to get to it, and was altogether
too far away from the Treasury building,
where my business specially called me.
Staggering homeward in an unsteady. de-
sultory manner, 1 at length approached my
residence, and, to my surprise, saw q light
in the room supposed to be occupied by INV
wife. Possibly she felt lonely; possibly
che was unwell. At any rate the light was
there, whatever its significance.
Having latch key, quietly opened the
front door and assembled the steps to the
matrimonial chamber, feeling the while in
y serious mood of self-cOndemnation. and
striving to frame some satisfactory excuse
for my appearance at such an hour and in
such plight.
Tapping lightly at my wifes door
awaited an answer.

1T is l, my DEAR" replied, trying to get
my voice into q reasonably tender and do.

After . little hesitation the door v.s
opened, and with few words shout INV
unexpected return, was welcomed back
with q kiss into utter darkness.

saw, proceeded with his work. He, how
ever, proved an unskillful workman. In.
Piled the saw between the ladder and the
tree. and just a. he was about to congratu-
late himself on bis success, the limb broke
and he tumbled down, injuring himself go
severely that he could scarcely move.
Young Wise, who was on the lookout be-
hind some cedar trees in the vicinity, felt
certain that the old man had broken his
neck; he therefore rushed to the spot on
double mission OF mercy and marital in
terest Blouter was bleeding from the
mouth, and it was evident that he had re
ceived severe internal injuries. With the
aid of two negro women the young man re-
moved the patient to the house, and was
sent for. The case was. however, hope
less one from the first, and after lingering
for about week the old man died. "Now.
for my service in the premises received q
fee of $500, and it is clear that would have
had no such opportunity had the old and
peculiar institution of slavery still existed.
A dsrkey would have been ordered to cut
off the branch, and he certainly would have
had more practical common sense than to
have sawed himself off with the offending
limb. To save fifty cents the missr under
took to do the work himself, and in doing

"That woman" whispers my wife to me,
lis the greatest fool ever saw"
l asked her reason for this strange con
clusi0n.
She replied thus: "Why, you see, she had
two offers of marriage, one from a rich man
who was able to indulge her in everything,
the other from tailor, and if there is any
thing on earth do desplse it lie tailor.
True, the rich man was older than the
tailor, hut what Of thats What do sensible
women care for age in their husbands, if
they have plenty Of that which makes life
enjoyable and age endursble. With enough
of money q wife can command all that she
wants, and if the husband be old, she can
look the sooner to the independence and
honors of widowhood."
looked in amazement on my wife. Such
sentiments from her lips sounded AZ
strangely to my ears as if she had INDUCED
in words Of revolving profanity, and the
cruel suspicion arose that possibly the wo-
man had made mine for life was not az pure
and noble as had fondly believed. Men,
tally contracted myself with the Richmond
tailor, and reluctantly concluded that my
wife's notions Of propriety were not of the
highest possible standard. There was Q
sting in her remarks which was at once .
torture and q premonition. 1t ranked in
my breast and pointed to the possibilities
of an unhappy future. tried to shake off
the unpleasant impression, but found the
effort vain. A dark cloud began to take
form above me, and l had not the heart to
inquire when it would descend.

discussion they arrived at the solemn con-
clusion that life in this world is q mere
lottery; that the prizes and blanks are dis
tributed less by merit than by chance, and
that all commercial speculation is essen
TALLY gambling in its worst form, being
based on the desire of making gains at the
cost of others, and conducted, as far a. pos
sible, on principles of stimulation and de-
ception. As . sequel was invited to take
hand ct little game of draw, merely, as
was urged, to pass away the time. l said
that my acquaintance with the game was
extremely limited, go limited, indeed, that
it would scarcely afford any amusement to
experienced players. But to this they re-
piled that we all rest under q common obi.
CATION to afford each other instruction and
amusement, and they trusted that in the
game proposed this obligation would be
faithfully carried out.
1, at length, with q sort of mental pro-
test, assented to the proposition, and we
thereupon retired to indulge in the mystic
ries Of draw.
Seeing what we were about, the keeper of
the hotel got in front of me and shook his
head in subdued, yet mysterious manner,
as if anxious that should take some hint
which he kept carefully hidden from the
others. I, however, thought it rather a
piece Of impertinence than kindness on
his part and obstinently refused to inquire
into his hidden meaning.
The game was played for trifing stakes,
at first, and, as is frequently the case with
new beginners, was wondrously in luck.
One of my companions loosely remarked
that l could Ego in on shoe string and
draw . lanyard" and if my luck lasted
would impoverish them all before the game
had closed.

we'll afford to be liberal to enterprises
like this Southern Road, that willin due
time yield its full return to the city's
wealth.
One thing is certain, Cincinnati must
never seriously think OF step SO disrep-
utable and so cowardly as to abandon
the ten millions already invested for the
want OF more means to complete SO valu-
able work. All men concur in saying
that the work already done on this road
and the material employed are of the
very best possible kind. The sum ex-
pended therefor has not been squandered,
but judiciously applied. Moreover it is
a noteworthy fact that those among our
citizens who pay most largely to
our taxes are the most earnest
in favoring the prosecution of this enter
prise to full completion. II our people
will grid themselves up to a manful
meeting of this matter, one year more
of time will see the Southern road ready
for its rolling stock, and then Cincinnati
will reassert her once proud position as
the Queen City of the West, standing at
the gateway of trade between the North
and the South.

CASHIERS Of banks, book.keepers, ant

CASHIERS of banks, book-keepers, and
treasurers of trust funds generally, are
of late bee oming diligent students of in
ternational law. They know precisely
what the foreign countries are with
which we have treaties for the extradi-
ton Of criminals, and with which we
have not; and they make special note of
the geographical position and lines of
transit communicating directly with
those OF the latter class. They more
over inform themselves of the immuni-
ties that attach by international law to
vessels carrying a foreign flag. All these
things the fugitive forger, Winslow, had
faithfully studied up; and therefore, for
his pleasure trip to Europe, he preferred
passage on asteamship sailing from New
York under the Dutch flag direct to Hol-
land, with which country we have no
extradition treaty. How unfortunate
now it would be, if from stress Of
weather, or other accident, that Dutch
steamer should be compelled to land hel
passengers in British port. Winslow's
legal studies would all count for nought
In such case, the reverend gentleman, il
speaking of Rotterdam, would probably y
omit the Rotter.

MONDAY. ........JANUARx 81


IT Is now pretty generally conceded
that Gen. Schenck's official days are num-
bered; and that a new appointment is
under consideration at the White House.
General Grants principle OF faith and
practice, not to Withdraw the commits
sion from an officer while under fire, may
be avery good one. Butin Schenck's case
shat rule would work a permanent hold
on his commission; for he is continually
under fire. He is never clear from the
smoke of the batteries that are perpetu-
ally playing upon him. Concerning the
Eruth of the statement recently made as
10 his being served with a writ in the
s'Emma Mine" case, we have serious
doubts, A public Minister is not amen
able to such proceedings in the courts oi
the country to which he is accredited.
Nevertheless we think General Schenck
had better come home.
