Old Baker started up. God bless you,
sir" says he, "and God bless you, miss,
and make you happy one day. I'll take
it myself, as my trap is at the door. He
hustled out, and his carriage drove
away at a great rate.
Mr.. BARLEY went quietly to.his study
to business without another word, and
Mary leaned back little exhausted by
the scene, but smile almost of happi-
ness came and tarried on her sweet face
for the first time these many days; as
for old John Baker, he told his tale
triumphantly at the Hall, and not with
out vanity, for he was proud Of his
good Jugdment in going to Mary Bart
ley.
To the old housekeeper. a most SUI
perior woman of his own age. and al
most lady, he said something rather
remarkable which he was careful not to
bestow on the young ways in the ser
wants hall: MRS. Milton, says he, Il
am an old man, and have knocked about
at home and abroad and seen deal of
life, but I've seen something to-day that
1 never saw before"
SAY, Joon, surely; and what ever was
that%
1--WE seen an angel pray to God, and
/ have seen God answer her."
From that day Mary had two stout
partisans in Clifford Hall.
Mr.. Bartley's views about Mary now
began to waver. 1t occurred to him
that should Colonel Clifford die and
Walter inherit his estates he could east.
ly come to terms with the young man so
passionately. devoted to his daughter.
He had only to say: 81 can make no al
lowance at present, but / will settle my
whole fortune upon Mary and her chill
dren after my death, if you'll make
moderate settlement at present." and
Walter would certainly fall into this
and not demand accounts from Mary's
trustee. So now he would have posi-
lively encouraged Mary in her attach.
ment, but one thing held him back q
little; he had learned by accident that
the last entail of Clifford Hall and the
dependents estates dated two genera.
tons back, so that the entail expired
with Colonel Clifford, and this had en-.
abled the Colonel to sell some OF the
estates, and clearly gave him power nov
to leave Clifford Hall away from his
son. Now the people who had begun
to fetch and carry tales between the
two magnates told him of the lawyers
recent visits to Clifford Hall, and he haG
some misgivings that the Colonel haG
sent for the lawyer to alter his will ana
disinherit, in whole or part, his absent
and rebelliOus son. All this taken to.
gether made Mr.. BARLEY resolve to be
kinder to Mary in her love affair thar
he had ever been, but still to be guard
ed and cautious.

In short, under the courageous advice
of Julia Clifford, Walter began to throw
himself in Mary's way, and look discon
ISOLATE; that set Mary pining directly,
and Julia found her pale, and grieving
for Walter, and persuaded her to write
him two or three lines of comfort; she
did, and that drew pages from him.
Unfortunately he did not restrain him
self, but flung his whole heart upon pa
per, and raised q tumult in the innocent
heart of her who read his passionate
lodgings.
She was so worked upon that at last
one day she confided to Julia that her
old nurse was going to visit her sister,
Mrs. Gilbert, who lived only ten miles
off, and she thought she should ride and
see her.

Scattered through residences here, there
are many wonderful relics and historic bits
of bric-a-brac that could furnish forth q
most wonderful art loan collection, il the
owners could be inuced to part with them
for that long. Col Jerome Bonaparte's
house is a perfect museum of Bonaparte
relics, many of them are works of great
value intrinsically. Mrs. Iturbide, the
widow of the son of the Emperor Iturbide,
of Mexico, lives here in q pretty residence
near the British Legation, and has some
wonderful pieces of Mexican silver, carving
needlework and pottery. Her son, who is
prominent society man here, was adopted
in his childhood by MAMMALIAN aud the
Empress Carlotta as their heir, and lived
with them during their brief reign in the
halls of Chapultepec Through this con-
nection with that unfortunate monarch, the
lturbides have many relics and souvenirs
of that last Emperor Of Mexico. Mrs. Caro-
line Dali, of Boston, who has had winter
home ON Georgetown Heights for many
years, has her home crowded with curios,
bric-a-brac, antique furniture relics and
art baubles from all parts of the world. On
her tea-table she uses quaint old silver tea
pot, with futed sides and ebony handles
that was made by Paul Revere, who was
goldsmith by trade. In her drawing-room
there is an exquisite old mahogany chair,
with carved back representing Tyre with
great festoon of flowers depending from
it, and the seat is upholstered with heavy
silver brocade strewn with velvet roses
This chair was one Of the set in the Empress

STARTING TOWNS M COLORADO.

The Town Site Company / ought to
explain. for the benefit of some Eastern
readers, is mn association of men who make
up their minds that town should would
or conld grow up at certain point in a
wild region whittier civilization IL tending,
or whittier rush is expected, contingent
ipon certain event, like the discovery of
precious metals or the completion of rail
way. Under laws of the United States these
men take mp" n certain area upon which
to build their town, and proceed TO put II
into rs presentable shape as circumstances
will admit, by surveying streets, indicating
parks and reservations for public buildings
hospitals churches, city halls, libraries
and so ON; by bringing water from the
hills, planting shade-trees and perhaps
building big hotel. In many cases the
railway is partner anil helps by concen-
rating operations at tia; point; indeed, the
exigencies OF railway construction and oper-
alton are generally the most potent factors
in deciding the locality.
The place plotted and the company"
on the ground, lively advertising begins.
The floating frontier crowd rushes to the
new spot, and a wild speculation in town
lots at once begins, prices being paid that
have no relation 10 the intrinsic value of
the property acquired, which, as yet, is
worth next to nothing, but, like the Wild
cat stocks of Wall Street, simply represent
the amount man is willing to stake on that
particular card, or the rental he can afford
for immediate use and opportunities. - Eyn.

ated by the Combination, in the an
thracite coal regions, for about fort
night in June next. The coal trade will,
no doubt, be lively in the early part of
July. The consumption of bituminous
coal is gaining in favor, and 1t may not be
long before the CRATE bars may be altered
to suit the use of this cheap and economi-
cal fuel. The only objection to the use of
soft coal in dwelling houses, is the smol Q
and smell arising from it, as compared
with the clear anthracite. The July cir
cular will be out about juno 30th, when
the prices will, no doubt, hasten the move

Mrs. Caroline Spaulding Burdette, the
wife OF X. j. Burdette, the well-known
humorist, died at her husbands residence,
at Ardmore, on Monday, of consumption.
Mrs. Burdette was tho daughter Auren
Garrett, and was born on December 8,
1S47, at Peoria, III. She was married to
MIR. Burdette on March 4, 1870, when she
was thought to be at point Of death, and
when so feeble that her responses could
only be made by slight movement of
the eyes and faint pressure of the hand.
But Mrs. Burdette rallied and recovered
some degree of health. In 1875 she was
broken completely down by an attack Of
rheumatic fever, and has since been a
helpless invalid. 1t was through his
wife's persuasions that Mr.. Burdette first
began to lecture, as it was to please her
and drive away gloom and pain that he
wrote his first little humorous articles.
Mr.. Burdette brought her to Philadelphia
for treatment in 1870, and she remained
until 1882, when she removed to the home
at Ardmore. She leaves q son, bright
lad of Z years. The funeral will take
place at Lower Merton Baptist Church on
Wednesday at o'clock. DIR. II. G..
