DUTY--A TALE "oF WAR DAYS-
[ By Oathrino Welts. ]
The bright sunlight of a clear April
morning was stealing in through the half-
closed shutters of the parlor of Widow
Clayton's pleasant homo , and lighting
with occisional fiuhoa the fine face o
Albert Marshall , as ho paced restlessly
across the room ; and encircling with a
halo of golden light the bowed head o
the young girl half reclining In the low
window-seat.
Oat of doors all was bright nnd beauti
ful scarcely in harmony with the sorrow
ing excitement which wan convulsing
every federal heart , for the electric wires
had berne to every part of the north the
tidings of the defeat of her sons by the
confederates.
It was that which lighted up Albert
Marshall's facowlth ] such stern enthulasm ,
and caused his rostloes movements across
the snnlighted room.
"It haj booomo a matter of duty now , "
ho was saying with sparkling eyes ; "tho
best blood of our native state has been
shod by the rebels , and it is time every
man who can shoulder a musket should
use it to rodrtss the wrong ! My placa Is
the ranks , and I cannot shrink from dnty
now. Do you bid mo go , Genie ? Are
you willing I should gi'i"
"How can you ask it ? ' she said at last ,
with lips which quivered In spite of hot
effort at naif-control. "You know full
well I should never bo willing. "
"Not when you know it is my dnty ,
and that I should bo proving myself a
coward and traitor to shrink frcm It ? " ho
eald earnnstly.
' It Ja not duty,1' she answered impa
tiently ; "it is only a boyiih onthulaam in
yon a love of change and excitement. ' '
"Ooly a boyish onthuiasml Oh Genie , "
ho said , reproachfully. ' 'how little you
understand the feelings of a man in suoh
a moment as this , when our country's flag
has boon torn down and defied. I must
go , Gonle , I cinnot shrink from the duty
so stcinly impoicdl In one , mouth ,
Genie , " ho resumed , after waiting in
vain for an answer , "you Hero to have
been my wife , and I came here thlt morn-
to ask you to forestall that time and be
come mine before wo part. Shall it be
so , darling ? "
Bo bent tenderly over her , awaiting
her auswor.
Fora minute or two she remained silent
then raising her head , and turning to-
war da him a face , white with intensa
feeling , she said with passionate earnest
ness : "No , not now , nor over , If you
persist in this mad scheme. "
Ho rose slowly to his feet and stood
with folded arms sternly regarding her.
"Virginia Olaytonl"
"Albert Marshall ! "
There they stood face to face ; his ro-
reallng sorrow , disappointment and sur
prise hers firmnets , scorn and defiance ,
"Virginia. , " ho ssli at length , in slow ,
measured tones , "what am 1 to under-
Blind by thlt ? "
"Just what I have slid : If you penis !
in this , onr engagement Is broken forever
over I The man whom I marry must love
me well enough to be willing to sacrifice
his wishes to mine , and not , for a valr
glnry , rush headlong Into danger froir
which rojsoa aud judgment would re
strain him , '
"And this is your final decision ? " hi
asked coldly.
"It is , you can take your choice ro
miln at home and I will bo your wlfo a *
the npolntod time , but pertlet in this ab
surd sohemo of leaving homo and frlondi
from a mistaken idea of duty aud we par
forever , for I must stand first ; no othei
love must como between mo and the mat
1 marry. "
Very , very eloquently ho pleads will
her , portraying in vivid colors all thi
neoesiitlca of the case ; but sll in vain
Virginia Clayton was very solfieh , bu
firm as granite in that selfishness ; to al
arguments she only uuworod , "I cat
oifdr no other alternative , "
"As well as I have lovad yon Virginia , '
ho said at list , finding all his efforts use
lots , * 'as well as 1 loyo you now , I canno
falter In the path of duty. I must go ; '
cannot fonako my country , tn her hou
of need ! "
"Very well ; you hare made you :
choice ; do not.blameme if yon regret It. '
Slowly and deliberately she took thi
engagement ring from her finger andAelc
it towards him.
For a moment be stood silently regard
ing her aa she held the ring out toward
him , with that cold , stern lock on hei
face ; then talcing it , ho cast it to the
farthest corner of the room ,
"Thus would I oastout from my heart , '
he said , bitterly , "every thought of t
woman so unworthy my love , that t thi
moment when I needed love and sympa
thy most , sternly withheld them * except
on condition of my becoming a coward
and a traitor I I wiih you joy of youi
freedom , MUs Oltyton. "
Ho bowed haughtily and tnrncd'tc ]
leave the room , but his better nature
trlnmphed ; ho could not leave in scorr
and anger the woman bo bad loved bet
ter than his own life , even though shi
bad proved herself unworthy. Anothei
moment and ho was besldo her , foldlnj
her in bis arms with all bis old tender
nets "May heaven forgive you , Genie , " hi
§ ld , sorrowfully , "the great wrong yoi
are doing us both. ( Joe d y you wll
think differently from wh t you do now
Heaven bleci you , " And with hurrie
kits bo wis gone.
With her eyes half tUttfsd with teai
aho watched him until he was lost to her
sight ; then , burying her fco in the sofa
cushions , gave way to a passionate burst
tf weeping.
For three long months Virginia Clay
ton had lived In alternate hope and fear ;
and now the terrible battle of Bull Ran
hid been fought. Sbo knew the Sixteenth
was engaged in It ; throe days had passed ,
and with great anxiety she had wn'ted
for tidings from one member of the regi
ment you and I cm tmiglne , who have
waited thus for tidings of ono dearer than
onr lives.
At last among a lUt of wounded men
conveyed to various Washington hospi-
tali , the read with a sharp pi Li at her
heart , "Captain Albert Marshall , In the
brens' , serlouslyl"
Neither prldo or sofishnesi could keep
her from him and In
now , six-and-thlriy
hours she stood In the < fEco of the hospi
tal , inquiring for Captain Marshall.
V'hethor sbo were Vtifo. sweetheart , or
sister , the attendant could not have told ;
but tbo pale face , intensely brilliant eyes
and the half-faltering accents of the
voice , told that eha was ODD whoso hap
piness hung on his answer ; and his tones
softened while the usual abruptness of
his manner became gentle almost ai a
woman , as his lips spoke the words which
crushed her last hope "Died this morn
ing at ton. "
There was no outcry from the pile Dpi ;
only a hand of Iron seemed grasping her
heart a terrible weight had fallen upon
her brain , crashing every feeling. Thou
slowly , as if every limb had turned to
s'one , she moved mechanically towards
the doer.
Some ono from outside opened it be
fore she reached It.
Without looking up she stopped aside ,
but the newcomer seemed in no haste to
pass , and for an instant both stood silent
ly , nntll her name , spoken In terms which
filled every fibre of her heart , caused her
to raise her eyes with a sudden start of
glad surprise ; for there , before her , in
health and strength , stood the man she
mourned as dead. Joy seldom kills , but
the sudden reaction of feeling lolt her
faint and weak , and she would have fal
len bad not his arm lent a willing
support.
An half hour later seated together in a
private parlor of a hotel , when their mu
tual explanations wore over , she believed
herself to bo the happiest woman in all
the world. So sudden , so unexpected
had this happlnets como that she almost
feared lost it should slip again from her
grasp ; and her heart wont up to heaven
In earnest thanksgiving for this great
blessing , whllo ho humbly prayed to bo
made worthy of it.
The mistake which had caused her so
much sorrow waa occasioned by her Ignorance -
noranco of the fact that Albert Marshall
bad a coaoln bearing the same name as
himeolf , an officer In a western regiment ,
who had received his death-wound In the
same battle from which he had escaped
unhurt. In reading the name Virginia
bad never stopped to see that the tcgi-
mont was not the one for which she was
looking ; but she never regretted the
mistake which had eo effectually cured
her of her prldo and eolfnhness , which
bad been the carao of her life.
With the disaserouB battle of Bull Hun
Albert Marahall's term of service expired ,
and a few days later ho returned to bis
native town , whore the vows to rudely
broken were renewed for life at the al'ar. '

PAIUS , April 22. Wo ara rejoicing In
the arrival of sprint ? days , the winter baa
been BO long and bitterly cold. Now the
sun comes down in true spring style and
warms the earth.
Parla is clmply doltghlfal ; everyone
looms to bo out of doors enjoying the
change. The Champa Elyacos is dally
crowded with prettily droasod children
with nurses ; the daisy bode are rod and
white with bloitoma ; the fountains ,
great and small , are playing , chottnut

The great Gingerbread fair is In progress
at the Place du Trono. Wo bovo visited
It twice , ate the glngoibrtad in form of
soldiers , horses , elephants , etc. , oto , un
til wo wore sick of the sight of it ; stood
In front of the clrcuaoa and listened to
the thundering munlo by a string or
chestra of tbreo performers , each playing
on a different key ; took , for two sons , a
' parti" in a lottery ; now a cake of gin
gerbread great chancal Ate fresh
nongat , and hot gaufres in a word ,
frto a llttlo of everything that looked any
way tempting , and ended by riding in a
chariot , back of two stiff-necked os
triches , in a "merry-go-round"and were
made so seasick that our heads went
round like a windmill , and wo imagined
ourselves In a storm at sea , tossing on a
vessol. When wo go to a country fete
wo usually try to become a part of It , but
hereafter wo will forego the excitement
of riding In the "merry-go-rounds. " it
suggests too strongly the sensation of
mat dc mer to bo agreeable. I bought a
gingotbread man ( half as ( alias myself )
and carried him in my arms all the way
from the country to our hotel. Wo rode
in the tramway , and I hid no easy tatk
to keep him from bending and breaking
In two. Fortunately ho kept together
ani delighted the table d' note , where ho
wns served with the desert.
Pero LaChaisa looks green and attract
ive. We wont to the tombof Abelard and
Hcloise , and saw the tire lovers lying sldo
by aide in efliay. Our sentimental feel
ings failed to be aroused , to any great
extent , and wo shod not a tear over this
shrine of disappointed love. The poor
llttlo willow , over the grave of the pott ,
Alfred do Musiot , i ] not in a very flnir-
ishlng condition ; it had bsen carefully
watered and attended to the day wo saw
It , but from Us fragile appearanca I im
agine It will not bo long before It follows
the example of thoio planted before It ,
and die.
Having seen Paris , proper , we thought
we would explore the subterranean part
of It , and visit th'o Catacombs. Wo were
a large party of over two hundred per
sons , who , with a lighted candle oich ,
descended the narrow stone steps leading
Into oppressive darknoes. I presume yon
have explored underground Home , and
know the sight. So many ekullr and
bones are not an especially cheerful so
ciety to bo among , but it Is Interesting to
eee. Onr lone procoeslon carrying their
burning tapers on 1 igh followed the eight
guidoj through the narrow anti-chambers
and corridors , and it was a curious slpht.
Wo were a llttlo over an hour In explor
ing the Catacombs , and now I am anxious
to got mamma to visit the Sonus. But
she saya "No 1 I promised the good Loid
tint if Ho would oiily allow ma to live to

would promise Him to never again leave

ing forward to tbo opening of the
"Salon" which ocurs next month , and
to the Grand Prix races , run
In Juno. Wo Intend forming a
party , take a landau , and go in ntco
stylo. As the prices are so extravagantly
high for the rac2s I presume I oball have
to ecnomlaa on "Bon Marohe" novelties
afterwards.
