It was a bitter cokl day; the streets of 2vew York were alive with a dense LmaijSflf catdujsJiumanity,. overcoat- who joyously braved the penetrating wind and sharp atmosphere inthemer ry making tin between the death of the old and the birth of the Xew Year. Notwithstanding the stormy weath er, the Empire City was never in gayer mood, and up and down and across the thronged tlioroughfares stylish turn outs dashed swiftly by to the tinkling music of silver-tongued belt and low, happy laughter, speeding away to the open ronds and snow-clad country, lying white and still beyond the hurry and turmoil of the great city. Though aoeokl without, it was warm enough in tle elearant rooms where we were sitting my cousin Althea, her hall sister Mrs. Irena Chester, and I. My cousin Althea was not young past 30, in fact, but she was the most beau tiful woman. I ever saw, and as she sat in the large crimson damask chair by the window, dxeamilv looking out at the hurrying pussers-by, I thought I had never seen any one so charmingly and irresistibly lo ely. Iler lustrous black eyes, clear olive complexion and glossy wealth of pu ride-black hair were so pertecuj periect tnat one aw. not know what to admire the most, and iter voice and smile were as sweet and winning as her form was graceful and her face matchlessh beautiful. Howard Tremaine loved her as few men love their wives; and Althea. as everylKxIy knew, idolized her hand some husband, and yet somewhere there was a hidden sorrow, tlie nature of which I could not for my life divine. I had seen the shadow more than once. but the substance kept itself well out of view and but for the sad. anxious. restless look that often of late crept in to Althea s great, soulful eyes, I d no) not have tlKHisht sorrow could exist in her luxurious home, much less fix itself permanently there. "Ye were going to the opera in the evening. Mr. Chester was to attend to us in the absence of Howard, who had gone away two or three hours before with three or fonr friends, who had, very much to his wife's regret, called for him to accompany themon a little half-hour or so sleigh-ride out on the Bloomincton road. As the short winter afternoon wore on Althea crew every moment more and more uneasy: her faith in that "little half-hour or so," never having been very strong, died utterly, long be fore the son's last cold, goklen rays faded in the west, and when Mrs. Chester rang for lights and carelessly remarked that it was time to dress, she was noticeably ill at ease, and would do nothin? but walk to and fro be tween the window and the warm, rosv firelight, in that nervous, listening, ex pectant way, which is so painfully sug gestive ot secret dread and anxiety too deep and wretched for words. Whatever Howard Tremaine touch ed turned to gold, and all that money eouhl buy his wife possessed. Her wardrobe, jewels, house and carriage, were among the most superb in Xew York, yet her closet evidently had its skeleton, and to-niirht, more than ever before, it seemed determined to rattle its dry bones in our very ears, and make itself felt and seen in every nook and corner of the millionaire's sump tuous home, in spite of all Althea could do to keep the unpleasant thing out of sight Pot the twentieth time, she walked TO i"hp 1V?nfW PTifl TVifh r Viilfanrk pressed sigh on her lips, stood watch ing the sleighs fly past so long that i Mrs. Chester quite lost her patience, and exclaimed, rather petulantlv: ; f- , ,. . -r-. - " .. , ' - ouaoise, -aiuita: navis it tnat Zu iiia win ue orrvimr aoout ' ' - -. w.4. . a uwuuu -11"11 Howard? He is not a babv. and is no idoUDt quite as capable of finding Ms a ;us MTvnKio nf finiiTTio. .;. I Tvay home alone as most men are. Mr. Tremaine knows that we are going to way borne alone as most men are.

And now we must dress, "if we wish to hear the opening air in "Faust," which I cer tainly do, however it may be with you." Mrs. Chester was one of those posi tive characters who immediately act upon what they say, and in less than an hour we were on our way to the opera. The house when we entered was lit erally packed with a most brilliant and fashionable audience, but Althea seem ed to move like one in a dream, and took not the slightest notice of any thing or anybody around her. I could not make it out at all, and hardly dared to look at her for very sympathy. Her magnificent dress of violet velvet and creamy old lace be- came ner pertectlv, and never did queen carry herself more royally, ox seem more unconscious of her beauty and grandeur. Diamonds a fortune's worth of them flashed on arms, neck and bo some, and gleamed like drops of liquid light amid the rich abundance of her dusky hair but she was not happy. There was much too heavy a sorrow lying unrestfully at her heart for that too much of nameless dread and anx iety to allow of enjoyment of any sort. At the end of the second act a gentle man made his way to our box, and ask ed in the usual conventional manner, after the customary greetings were gone through with, how we liked the music Mr. Chester, who had been comfort ably dozing in his chair the whole time, declared he was never more charmed an innocent fabrication which none of us cared to question. "And where did you leave Mr. Tre maine?" inquirsd Mr. Chester, in some surprise. "He was with vou, I think. Mr. Richland?" "Yes; and I left him with the others at Delmonico's. I don't care for that sort of thing, you know," lowering his voice and glancing furitively at Mrs. Tremaine. "It makes one feel so con foundedly wretched next day." Althea was a well-schooled woman of the world, and full and unflmchins- Iy she met his meaning glance. She was very pale, and the hand that held her boquet trembled slichtly, but otherwise she was her own calm, proud, lovely self, and neither Mr. Kichland I nor any one ehe should see beneath the mask. I can't tell just how theeveningpass ed. I only know that I was intensely glad when it was all over, and we were at home again. Mr. and Mrs. Chester went at once to their apartments, but I lingered a mo ment in the parlor with Althea, who seemed in no hurry to go to her room, though it was late "and the whole house as still as death. But as she did not appear inclined to there alone, like another Ariadne, sad and broken-hearted, in the midst of princely splendor and wealth. I had barely left the room before the jinsle of bells and the clatter of flying hoofs in the now almost silent streets arrested my footstepa. A sleigh dashed past, and stopped at the door, as if driven by a whirlwind. The night was intensely cold. but the tired horses were smoking, and their quivering flanks white with frost and foam. Xot caring to see more I dropped the curtain and turned to look at Althea. She stood like a statute in the middle of the room, one hand pressed hard atrainst her breast, and the other hold ing close about her tlie rich white opera-cloak she still wore, with its soft, snowy fringes and swansdown trim mings shimmering in the faint, uncer tain hrelight like a silken cloud, for one dim gas jet was burning in the de serted parlor when we entered it, and even this Althea had turned down so low that it was no more than a glimpse of light. Unsteady steps sounded on the stairs, then came the sound of a munied fall, and something like a half-uttered oath, mingled with the low cry of unuttera ble anguish that burst "involuntarily from Althea's pale lips. "I knew how itwouklbe"" she moan ed. "I knew how those creatures he calls friends, would bring him home." And swiftly and noiselessly as a spirit, unmindful of her elesrant toilet, and the strangely beautiful picture she made. Althea hurried to the assistance of Iier lieipless husband. It was not the first time she had waited his coming in a pale aeony of fear and dread; not the first time" she had heard the dull, soul-siekemng fall ; not the first time she had glided down the great oaken stair-case to find her husband handsome Ho ward Tremaine lying prone upon tlie floor, a sisht to stir the pity of the coldest heart and cause the very angels in heaven to weep. I could have cried aloud in my un uteraWe surprise and. grief, and on my knees have begged him, for God's sake, to desist from" further breaking the heart of the wife who loved him so dearly aye, no dearly. I saw her through a rush of blinding tears help him somehow to regain his feet, and even in his pitiable weakness he looked like a fallen cod : the noble head, the clear-cut features, the some thing indescribable that stamped him a man of wealth and intellectual force, was still apparent, though so complete ly had the man been gotten the better of by the demon that lurks in the wine cup. And she Althea the look of her eyes I'll never forget to my dying day. She did not say a word; a kind of dumb despair seemed to settle down upon her countenance a despair that paled her cheek to ashes and chilled the very life-blood in her veins. I had seen enough, Godknows, of Al thea's hidden sorrow, and stealing away to my room. I -wished I could believe the whole miserable scene but a troub led dream, that would vanish with the morrow's sun. Howard did not make his appearance at the breakfast table next morning. Althea explained, in a tone of apolo gy, that Mr. Tremaine came in late, and "was tired." Airs. Chester did not guess that any thing was wromr, and reallv thought Howard fll taken ill the dav nravions and advised Althea to sendforthe fam-! liy physicsan. - rf , . we V3- ma not follow ner Il 1 ... , . - I f ! ?rster? adyice, but sat all day beside tne sota where ner husband lav. snffpr- e sora wnere ner husl where her husband lay, suffer- " " rrom eaaacne and remorse.

It is true that with a free vote and an honest count the Republicans of HarriS-on xauntv have a majority of at least 1,700. The Republicans of Har rison eountv are nearlv all colored 1 men. wnue tne wnites :is a class are Hllo Trio TtrHtT-aiJ mc a rtloj ovml ' Democrates. There are a number of respectable white men in Marshall who are Republicans at heart, but they are too cowardly to admit it. and for policy's sake act with the Dem ocracy. While it is true, as we have stated, that the Republicans have a large majority in Harrison eountv, it is equally true every eonnty oflicer is a Confederate Democrat. Although the Republican ticket was elected at the last election by a large majority, the Demoeratie candidates took forcible possession of the offices, and have lieM and continue to hold them in defiance of law and right. The judge before whom Currie was tried is a Confeder ate Democrat, so are the District and Connty Attorney, the sheriff, court clerks, every member of the jury which acquitted him. and every lawyer for the defense, Cj jjpher a Denic City of Shreveport, and Curne VirnseTf has always heen a Democrat. As we said, about the entire white population of Harrison rounty are Democrats of the most bitter anil malignant stripe. "We know tins people; we have lived among them and know their hatred to ward Republican and Union men. Y'ankee enterprise has made Marshall all it is. Take that away and it will be the deadest town in Texas. The old moss-back Confederates of Har rison county have no use for a Yankee, beyond what they can make of him. Even the only United States otneer in ihat town is a democrat. Tlie post master is a Kentucky Bourbon, appoin ted by President Hayes. It is the Democratic party that in six vears have closed the doors of our public schools, stopped immigration to our State, and started emigration from it. and redueed tiiis great State to semi barbarism. This party has had the en tire and unlimited control of every de partment of the State sinee January. 1ST4, and up to this date the Adjutant General states that there are 6.U00 criminals, mostly murderers, fugitives from justice. To the ignorance, intol erance, and persecution of the Confed erate Democracy is Texas indebted for this deplorable state of affairs. The overthrow of this moss-back Bourbon Democracy is the only hope of ever restoring law and order in Tex- as. A GemasYiew. Tlie New York Belietritihes Journ al has the following: "Notwithstand ing their lucky nomination at Cincinna ti, with which" the Democrats overbridg ed their political embarrassments and perplexities, the Democratic, party remains as aver the dangerous element, which by its declarations during the last Presidential election attempted to defeat the great poiitieo-eeonomie ! problim vis. : the resumption of specie payment, and which is determined even to-day to destroy this achieved financial reconstruction if it eould. Democracy is the troublesome agent in our political liousehokl: the dis franchisement in the South, finds its assent, and the bulldozing practiced by Southerners it excuses and palliates ; the attempt to abrogate protection of the ballot-box and to fraustrate the maintenance of its purity is its work. llie fcouth long ago should nave lett the pernicious and dangerous roads which do not lead to its prosperous development. Peaee and barmonv were restored long before this if the Democracy had hot held out the hope that the snpremacy of power in the Federal government would be returned into its hands so that it might verify its plans for revenge which it has signi fied plain enough during the last few vears. For the plain citizen theeltoiee between the two candidates, Garfield j and Hancock, may be difficult: his choice, however, will be made easy by a close examination of the parties who stand behind these two party rep resentatives."

Supposed Wake. From, the Philadelphia Times. Standing on the corner of Sixtfeand South streets, listening to the exciting adventures of ex-Sergeant Duffy ia that quarter of vice and degradaon bounded by Fifth street on the east. Eighth street on the west, Imbard street on the north, and Bainbridge street on the south, attention was called by Mr. Duffv to a short, stout. ruddy-faced man, apparently 35 years of age, drawing an empty push-eart. "That man was buried alive," said Mr. Duffy, "and all of a sudden, and of course unexpectedly, one morning walked into the house where his wife and child were and seared them almost to death." TWs statement corning from Mr. Duffy, who was never known to per- ' petrate a joke, led to further inquiries. wmch resulted in ascertaining that the name of the man was Anthony I Murphy, and that he resided at U01 -Uasfca street, an oW tulapuiated frame house, one-and-a-half stones high. The front room is a salesroom for second-! hand clothing. In this room, on a lounge, was seated a young woman, t . - who, when questioned as to where Mrs. Mnrphy could be found, replied that this was where Mrs. Murphy lived. A moment later and a cheerf nHook ing woman, apparently about 3S years of age, made her appearance. "It is said that you buried your hus band a few years ago, and that soon afterward he came back to you in good health and is still living with you. Is that true, Mrs.Murphy?" was asked. Mrs. Murphy sat down as if to nar rate something, and sure enough she did give a narration: "About four years ago," she said.

I n-im tor his money and "nice clothes, and thrown him overboard in the river, and so every time any stranger was taken to the morgue I would go there expecting to see me dear man. About four months, after me man first went away," continued Mrs. Murphy, "I was sent for to eome to the morgue to see if the man brought in from the river was me husband, and as soon as I laid me eyes upon him, 'it's me own blessed husband.' I sakL There was his own Saady hair, his mouth and teeth just the same as ever; there was the broadcloth suit, the Canton flannel drawers, with the same rent in the seam, and the woolen sock.
