STORY OF A STiLETTO.

The house had the grace and dignity OF
a large reach of grounds about it. The
windows were open to the tangible sug-
gcstivcness of an early spring night.
From time to time Mrs. Aycuels dress
passed vaguely before the study windows.
She paced slowly to and fro. Her arms
were folded under Il light wrap drape,l
over her head and shoulders. The night
light was so faint that one could not see
the expression of her face. The crescent
moon shone above the still bare boughs
of the clms and larches. One abnormally
white planet before which every point of
light in the blue black sky palcd and
dwndled, was going down in the west.
Presently Mrs Aveuel stopped, and
then approached one of the windows and
leaned against the easement.
Her husband was still sitting in the
same place. his head half turned away
and his face in the shadow thrown by the
shade of the low student lamp above its viy-
id white circle. He was talking, and the
other men seated about the table were list
ening. One of them, young fellow, had
made clear space among the books, pap
erS charts that Uttered the table, and was
studying the effect against the background
of II slender steel blade with a CurOuSly
wrought handle, which he kept turning
carefully over and over
"a murderous looking weapon, pro-
fessor,' he said
Another took the knife from the Young
man and examined it infinitely before
laying it down again.
Mrs. ANruel became aware that her huS-
band was telling them the history of the
Italian stictto. She knew it had n his
tory. once she had asked her husband
when he had been ranSackng the CON
tcutS of his cabinets to tell ii 10 her. He
laughed and said, Some other time He
was deep in his studies that day. When,

leading through the conservatory into the
grounds. only a passage and short
hight of stairs separated her own room
from that door. There were no windows
overlooking that part of the garden, and
even if they had been there would be no
one to look ont of them. The woman
had n quick inward vision of a long shaft
of light falling athwart the darkness here
at the front of the house from his study

The Loss by the Storm.

TIE Times Democrat estimates the
losses by the storm, outside Of that TO
crops, at over a million dollars--cOal,
5000, 900 steamboats,, schooners, lug
gers, etc, including cargoes, $2Oo, 900 !;
damage TO dwellings, fences, wires,
etc, 100000. The damage 10 crops is
not near so great as at first reported.
That tp cane il less than 10 per cent,
nor is the rice as hopelessly damaged
as was supposed, while the loss to corn
and cotton is very slight. IT sum5 up
thus:
Taking the later and more favorable
view Of the situation, and counting on
milder and more favorable weather,
the crop loss is less than onc-fourth OF
what it was originally estimated at,

can force cotton raisers TO buy their
