"Ki.i7.Ar.hTir, stop iiatt;nirip your nose atrainst th-it a inejow-j'ane, an d lisU-u to nit-." What h terrible shrill t'-ne there was in Miss Jiminiii's voire Ihatcliilly NovrmbiT morninjr! Kliubeth turned her head slowly half way round, and then back went the eairer little taee to the window airain. There was a K:it outside, and he had just ex traeted a hujie piece of brown paper from an opposite area, under which he had taken refuce to escape the rain, and was apparently niakiutr a comfortable break fast oil it. Now Klizaln th felt an interest in the trout, ami .he felt none whatever in what Miss Jemima had to say. He looked very dreary and desolate out there in the rain, and she wondered how he felt whether lie had ever lived in the country and had lhinrs to his taste, and it it was very disagreeable to him to be confined to the city, to breakfast oil' brown paper, aud be compelled to hunt through the putters for a morsel for his dinner. He looked as if he were miserable so very shaggy and dirty and wretched, witli the rain trickling down his sides ami dripping from bis nose. Mie felt very forlorn and mist-ruble too, and misery loves company; so she watched the goat, and forgot to listen to 3Iiss Jemima. Uut Miss Jemima's demands for atten tion were not to be lightly put aide. " Eli.abeth" (this lime in a louder tone and a higher key), "you are making a spot ou that window with your nose, and I want to talk to you about the liutter." " My nose has nothing to do with the butter, and I don'i listen with it, either. "What is the matter?" The goat was nearly out of sight now. He had consutiuit the brown paper, hut not satisfied his appetite, aud was com pclled to forage ag,ain. At that moment there was nothing left of him within Elizabeth's ran;e of vision but Ihe end ol his tail. He had stopped, and she was anxious to know if he had found anything she didn't want his breakfast to he all Lrown paper, poor thing! so she jammed her nose more persistently against the window-pane, lie was desolate, like lie-r-fclf, anil she sympathized with him, for she thought lite ll.-c-il them lmth badly. Yhen she saw him lift his head with a disappointed air, she was sorry for hi nr. anil it was not until he had quite passed beyond h';r view that she linmght herself back with a jerk to Miss Jemima. " What h;is the butter ('mw?'' she in fuired, with the bewildered air of an in dividual who has let his attention wander from a conversation, and finds it ditlicult to bring his mind back to the subject un der consideration. " Done, you goose!" wailed Miss Jemi ma, in a tone in which wrath was strange ly mingled with despair. " It's all gone." "Gone? gone where?" asked Eliza-lK-th, who was even more dreamily stupid than usual this morning. l;or Miss Jemima! Elizabeth wa a terrible irial to her, and she had so many trials. Miss Jemima belonged to that class of unfortunate women who have had a fierce struggle with the world, and in the course of the battle she had received many wounds. The world yields the liv ing it owes us all very grudgingly to many men, but to the women who undertake the fight single-handed it presents so se vere and discouraging a front that the wonder is they ever succeed at all. Miss Jemima was a veteran now. "She had fought a great many years for the means to support the life she had never enjoyed, and she was in the midst of the strife yet. t?he was worried and distressed, and greatly disposed to think she was in pos session of the monopoly of all wretched ness. There was sovnetn ng very pathetic in the anxious expression of her light gray eyes and the dow nward curves at the corners of her hopelessly homely mouth, but there was also something very ridicu lous in the daily catalogue of Miss Je mimas woes, and me lernuie eagerness with which she anticipated all sorts of miseries that never happened. Elizabeth thought slit; was the most aggravating I3 disrnal and despondent human being that ever 8113- one was forced to live with. But then Miss Jemima held quite as un favorable an opinion of Elizabeth; for of all the thorns, and there had been a great many, that ever pierced Miss Jemima's flesh, Elizabeth was the sharpest. This same Elizabeth, commonly called Bess, was Miss Jemima's sister, fifteen years younger than herself, and, accord ing to Jemima's simple theology, an all convincing argument in favor of the doc trine of total depravity. No one passes through this vale of tears without many trials, whether thev be great or small; but surely to the lot of no other human being falls so large an ac cumulation of petty cares and annoyanc e s as the mistress of it second-class boarding house in a large city is called upon to en dure. And the txsition of mistress of a large establishment for hxlgers, in one of the most tortuous streets of the crooked city of Boston, was the state of life in whicn ioor, pathetic, worried MissJe mina was called ujion to do her wearing anl difficult duty. Bess' busy brain was perplexing itself over a difficult problem this morning, while she jammed her nose against the window -pane, and forgot to pay attention to Jemima's tale of woe. Hie was won dering where her place was in this dis mal, rainy world, and however she could get into it. It was eight years ago now since Bess and Miss Jemima left the old farm-house in New England, where their presence had been barely tolerated by a hard-ti.ted relative, who gave them a grudging shel ter. Mrs. Brown, former mistress of the old boarding house, knew of Miss Jemi ma'shardlot on the poverty-stricken farm among the granite hills, and, needing as sistance with her large family and nu merous cares, had sent for poor Jemima to come to Boston, and given her permis sion to bring Bess. It was a happy change for the two un fortunates. Mrs. Brown was a good-natured old lady, and on the day when she expected the two wanderers to arrive she told their sad story to John, and concluded it with the request that he would meet them at the station and bring them safely to the house. 4nJ,?nrWJhe yonn m who lodeed keepcr for a retail house on Summer street, and had bearded with Mis. Brown a long time In-fore Bess and Jemima made their lirst appearance in Boston. It was John that made his way across the city, and waited patiently until the train arrived and emptied its crowd of weary passengers upon the platform. He found no diflicully in recognizing them ; aud suppressing a smile at the bew ilder ment expressed by Jemima's pathetic features, and the consternation in Bess' big round eyes, as they were jostled and hu-tled by the hurrying crowd', he intro duced himself, and giving the poor little hair trunk in charge of an exprexsman, tie posited Bess and JcminiH safely in a streetcar. They were very tired. Weary with travel, and frightened by the noise arid confusion around her, Jemima could with difficulty repress her tears, and Bess sobbed w ildly, and clung to John for pro tection; and he took excellent care of tiiem both until the' reached the house, where he h uided them o er to .Mrs. Brown for comfort and consolation. This w.h the beginning ol city life for Jemima and Bess. lood old Mrs. Brown took them both into her capacious arms and heart, and f r the tir-t time a bright ray of the sun shine of aU'ei tion aud kindness shone upon Jemima's dreary life. " Takin' lodgers was tryin'," as Mrs. Brown frequently allowed; "but them as hasn't rent to pay hasn't it so hard. If they dot s.ii"t like things, and li nils fault with the help, let 'em go where they're better suited. You can 'most always make the ends meet if you ain't got the rent to worry about." Mrs. Brown was fortunately situaltd. She had no chil dren, and no rent to pay, and so remained cheerful and contented in spite '' frequent vexatious encounters with the trouble some inmates of her house. Jemima wondered if she would h ive been cheer ful and contented if she had b en the w idow of a well-to-do coi ner grocer, with out Bess to worry her, anil in possession of a comibtahlc house. I'oor Jemima! who had never had more than a few dol lars of her own at anyone time in the whole course of her hard-working life. Mrs. Brown was kind to Jemima and indulgent to Bess, though Bess exhausted Ihe whole force of her juvenile intellect in the conception and execution of every possible sort of mischief. It was Bess who put the kitten in he water-pitcher to "see how he would look all wet," and set the fish to swin. ming in the wa-h-tub after they were fried foi break fast. It was Bess who hid in dark passages and Hew out upon the frightened "help" until they gave warning, because they were "scaiit to death by that brat." It was Bess who hid Mrs. Brown' best cap in the Hour barrel, and tumbled down stairs head-foremost with an appalling clatter while the family were at meals. Jemi ma's Ghrill tones were heard at all hours of the day in violent remonstrance and severe expostulation; but no amount of argument, entreaty or severity availed with Bess. There was only one influence to which she was ever known to yield, and that was John. He became her firm friend and champion. It was John who protected her from Mrs. Gruntley's threats and .Mrs. Jones's wrath ; John w ho took her to the circus, and gave her pepper mint drops, and petted her w lieu she some time s came togrief herself in her attempts to torment somebody else. She had fre quently chosen him for the victim of her misdemeanors too; but Bess was so per fectly wretched when John was "e-ross to her" in those days that their difficulties were always very soon made up by Bess promising "never to iio so any moie, not never again," and John agreeing to forgive- he-rafter receiving the promise. The irrepressible animation she had formerly w orked oil" out-of doors w as now shut up within four walls, and the atten tion she- ree-ched and the injudicious pet ting administeieii din ing her first sorrow ful d.is in the e iry by good Mrs. Brown had i!e-ve-liped aiap.ieity for mischief un dreamed of w hile she re inained under the severe discipline of the farm house. Jemima began to tear that the inexhaus tible energy displayed by Bess in devising schemes tr th- annoyance of her victims would end in their both be-ing dismissed from the house w he-re; they had found refuge. But good Mrs. Brown had too much justice in he-r soul to visit the sins of the juvenile eH'ender upon her elis-tresse-d siter; and, besides, she was dis posed to re-gard Bess' iniquities as lenient ly as possible, for the motherly old soul fancied she cnuiJ liiwc a slight reseiu l.'ance somew lie-re about Bi-s.s' audacious little pug-iiei.se in the same organ em the we ll-beloved e oiuiteiKince of he-r ele-parled grocer. This resemblance was a fortu nate thing for Bess, lor the good old lady's patience was not e-ndle-ss, and Bess' appetite for mischief was inappeasable. If Bess' nose had bee n ef a contour ei'her tiree k en- Uoman, she and Jemima might have found tin-msel ves homeless wander ers in the -tre e-ts of Boston em the morn ing alter Mr. Jones' hat, for which he had been searching fully an hour, was discov ered on the head of the pump in the back yard. Mr. J eme-s was a good boarder; he paid very regularly, and oe-cupicd the tnirel story fr.mt. If it had bee n the third s'or- back, who had a sick wife and two children, and was very irregular and un-ce-rtain in his payments, Mrs. Brown would have bee-n less severe; but she could not have- Mr. Jones trilled with, aud Bess receive-d a severe reprimand. After this there was comparative quiet in the house for a day or two, but it was only the calm that pie-cedes a storm. On Sunday Bess undertook the descent ef the staircase by way of the balusters, with a broom in he r hand for a balancing pole. Long practie-e had made Bess both skillful and elaring in this sort of exe-rcise, and the elesceiit would probably have bee n successfully accomplished on this occa sion but for an unlooked-lor accident. Just as Bess had started em he-r perilous unde rtaking from the second Iloeir lanel ing, 1'ho be, the tip-stairs girl, appeared on the landing below with a waiter in her hands, upon which was arrange-d with great care the elinuer for the hypochon driac old lady w ho excupied the seeond story front. Bess' attention was altracte-d by the rattle of eli.-he-s beneath her, and in turning her he-ad slightly to one side, in order to see w hat w as going on be-low, she lost her balance. Over she we nt, with her head downward, her l'ee-t in the air, and the broom humping wildly against the staire-ase and opposite wail. There was a w ild shrie k from I'lm-be, a wilder yell f re m Bess, and a terrible commotion among the croe ke-ry, as ihe waiter fell from 1'ho-be's hands with a fearful crash, and the plates and cupsaud saucers roll eel frantically one after another down the kitchen stairs. In less than a minute every inmate ef the house was on the scene; and in the e-enter ef the group stood the w re tched cause of all the excite ment, with he r he ad on erne side and her finger in her mouth, entirely unhurt, w bile fragments of roast beef, pedatocs, and pudding lay scattere d over her hair and neck and el re ss and little rivulets of gravy and swe etme ats dripped from her skitts. Be-ss had failen upon the-waiter, anel probably owed her life to Biiu be's prese nce ef mind in letting ge ef it and promptly seizing the chile!. But 1'ho-be gave warning imnii diatel , aud the eld lady in the second story front refuse-d to re-main in the house another day unless Be-s was instantly removed from the premises:. Like Daid C'opprrfield, when Miss Betsey acied upon Mr. Dick's advice, Bess was " wa-lied," and then locked up in Jemima's room while Mr. Jones, Mrs. Brown an I Jemima met in council to ele cide upon her fate. Mr. Jones was in dignant. Jemima tearful and Mrs. Brown seriously disturbed. Mr. .femes was ef the eipinion that the culprit should be sound- wipped, and quoted Scripture to strengthen the force of his argument. Jemima, who had learned by experience the inadeepiacy of ceirpejral punishment to centred Bess' depravity, only wept silent ly when this idea was suggested, and looked imploringiy at Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Brown was revolving m idea in her head, and emlv hesitated to announce it on ac count er the expense it invedved; but finally the; inexhaustible hencvole-ncc f.f the dear old lady, in combination w ith the resemblance between Bess' nose and that of the deee ased grocer, prevailed, and she announced her decision. Bess should " go to school." In this way the wrath of the old .ady on the second floor would tie appeased, Plm-be's faithful services would be retained, Jemima's mind set at ease and peace ana quiet restored to the establishment. Jemima had been of great assistance In lightening Mrn. Brow n's labors since she had been with her, and Mrs. Brown appreciated her pa tient devotion to her arduous duties. She felt that Jemima merited some reward for her devotee! service, anel then, in spile of all her wickedness, there- was still a ten elerness in the goed ehl lady's heart towaid sinful Bt-ss. So Bess was hurried oil' to? a cheap se heied in the country be-fore she fully re alized what they were doing w it li her or had time te prete.-t. However, remon strance em he-r part would have been use less, for the arbiters of her fate were de termined, ai d Be-ss was banished. Then ensued the calmest period ef Jemima's life. The ilays llowed smooth ly along for the first time in all the record of he r worried existence, and several years w e nt by. But just as the coi ners ed' her mouth were h-arning to relax from their grim downward curve, and the perpendic ular lines above her nose began to smoeith themselves out a little, a new calamity be fell Jemima, (ioeiel Mrs. Brown was taken sie k. and, after a hng illness, during which she ree-eiveel the most devoteel care from her faithful frienel and servant, ele parted this life to rejoin her deceased grocer in another work!. And now grim care se-i.ed upon ptwir .Jemima again. She had spent six peace ful and comparatively happy years w hile her liiend and patroness lived, but now she was alone again, with 1 ess and her self to provide for, and only her own un-aide-d efforts to win a living for them both. Mrs. Brown had rc-e-oin mended her to keep n with the h uise, und left he r the good-will of the lodgers and a few hundred dollars in the bank. But the-re was the rent to pay. The heirs were dis poscel to be as accommeidating as possi ble, but when they came into ihe prope rty the-y wanted the revenue from it, and though unwilling to elistress pexir Jemi ma, the-y must imist upon their elite. So Miss Jemima, as she had always been called, became mistre-ssed the house in the place of good Mrs. Brown. She was fa miliar already with the heavy burden of care and responsibility, but before she had had no experience of the grim night mare called quarter-day. This was a phantom that pursued her remorselessly now. Four times a year did Jemima tremble at the appreiaeh ef the terrible elay upon which the agent appe-ared with wiiat seeme-el to her his exorbitant ele niauds. So sher saved anel pincheel, and grew harder and thinner and more fretful. Bess' se-hoe.'l lulls cou'el be paiel no knge-r; indeed, all expenses must lie re duced to their smallest possible- limit in orde r that the rent might be forthcoming. So Jemima sent for Ue.-s to come home-. It was six years now since the memorable day when Bess made he r sudden plunge from the second-story "landing inte the tray containing okl Mrs. fJruntley's elin uer six years from the time when that ludicrous elisaster resulted in her sum mary banishment froui the old boarding heiuse. Now she was back again. Mrs. Oruut ley was there still, tint to this elay shehad never forgiven Bess the shock her nerves ree-e-ivcel e.n that occasion, anil Mr. Jones still re-tained a recollection of the pranks played with his wearing apparel. The other hoarders were new, with the excep tion of John, and therefore had no past memories to assist them in forming an eipinion ef the veiling lady whe appeareel so suddenly among them; but there was a prejudice against Bess in the house-, ami Bess returned their elislike with all her heart. Tlnre was her old friend John but Bess was not thinking about John on that rainy morning, a month alte r he r re turn from the country, as she stood at the w in-elo-.v watching the- goat, while Jemima wailed about the butter and lamented the insatiable appetites of her boarders. John was just the same great, big, good-natured, allei tioiiati- John he had always been so long as Bess had known him, ever since she had cried herself to sleep in his arms that dismal evening in the stree t car when she and Jemima made their tirst acquaint ance with ugly edd Boston? But since I'.e-ss became a young lady John was inclined to be slightly afraid ef the impeding younsr pe-rson in" black al-pae-a who male tlie-m occasional visits during the s-choed holidays; and us tor Bess Bess had fallen into the habit of considering all the conditions of her e-x-isie-nce: as hopelessly horrible and unin teresting, and she include 1 John among the- re-t. But this morning Bess feit t,hat she wanted a little sympathy and advie-e. She: realize d that an immense sum must be forthceiining next month to meet the elemands eif euarter-elay ; and that morn ing she had tliseovcred that a tiny liede was about to make its appearane-e in the elbow e d' he-r best alpaca elrcss. This com bination of circumstance s w as so depress ing that Bess made up her mind thai she must do something to assist Jemima, and relieve her, at least, of any f urther e are e.f her troublesome self. But the question was, What could she elo? she was utterly good for nothing. Suddenly a bright thought struck her. She would tisk John. She always use-d to po to John when she was in a t-c rape. Why not now? Cir cunistances were favorable, for at that moment John appe-are-d em the scene. He had just de-sce-nded from regions atieivc, and seated himself at the further end of the table. . -"John," said Bess, coming round to his side of the table and subsiding into a chair. Then, leaning he-r head medita tively on he-r hand, and putting her black alpaca elbow in the bread plate "John, what can I do?" John, like the tru; Yankee he was, par ried erne qucstie-n with another. " W hat do you w ant to do?" "Nothing; but one must live. Next month Jemima has pot the rent to pay. and she hasn't nearly meme-y enough ; and she says you all e-at so much. And my dress is all wearing out, and I must elo something to earn some money. Now , John, what on I elo?" This was certainly a perplexing qucs tion. John puUeel his mustache with a be w ilch-red air, anil Bess looked at him disconsolately. "Could you teach school?" " Me! I ehm't know anything." Jeilm w ondered w hat she had bee-n alieiut all those years at school, but lie made no comment. "Could you serve in a store?" " Anel stand up all elay in a Imix?" "A counter isn't a Imix," said John. " But so like one only just your head and shoulders out; and I must have room to move about, don't you se-e?" John didn't see. lie thought there were a great many people who elidn't have much roe h 11 to move about in, but he didn't say so. " No, I e-oiildn't do that," said Bess, shaking he-r head mournfully anil heaving a long sigh. "Can you sew?" asked John, after me-diiating a few minute-s. "No. If I ceuild, I'd mend that hide;" and Bess pulled her sleeve round her arm with her thumb and forefinge-r, anel pointed out to John a small heile, where the gray lining was beginning to show threiugh. Jerhn loeike-el at the plump little arm in the worn sleeve, and then up at the bright little lace, with its breiwn eycs, rosy cheeks, ami auelacioiisly impertinent nose, and an idea came into Ids head. It was neit a new idea by any means, but it was one that John had never elared en courage. It had be-e n dancing abemt in his brain oil' and on for two years, anef as eifte-n as it forced itself upon his notice John valiantly chased it away. Some times it would take possession ef him leir elays; then, again, John woulel conquer it entirely, and it would not dare attack him for weeks. But just as he thought he had done with it altogether, it was sure to come back again te torment him. When Bess came home for her holidays this idea would seize upon him relentless ly, and he could not pet rid of it for days after she was gone. He had always made a violent struggle against it, for uutil lately John's income had been so small as to make the encouragement of any such fancy very impossible and ridiculous; but bust summer his employers had raised li is salary to what he considered quite a magnificent sum, anel as soon as that was done the idea came brick again with re doubled energy, and John never tried te get rid of it again. Indeed, he took to encouraging it in a friphte-ned sort eif n ay. Now this idea was immediately connccteel with Bess, but up to this time Jolm had never dared to think of communicating it te her. Indeed, he was so much in awe of this yeiung person with the pug-nose ane! shabby elbow that if the conversation had not taken a very peculiar turn this morning I doubt if Jemn would ever have dareel to say anything about it. "Jeihtl you eitjght te have been down to breakfast!" began Bess, irrelevantly. Bess' mind w as of such a nature that it never could concentrate itself very long on any one subject, and at this moment the important matter under consideration went completclj-emt of her heaei, all be-causeshe happened to catch sight of the empty but ter plate. "Oh, John, if you only rotibl have been licre this meirning! We were just about half through breakfast, when Mr. Jones helped himself to all the butter there was en the plate. Then Jemima saitl, 'Mr. Jeme s, de jou know that butter cost fifty ce-nts the pound, sir?' "It's wutli it, marni w uth it,' said the edd wretch, as he put a piece an inch thick em his biscuit. Oh, John, if yeu could only have seen Jemi ma's face as he said it!' And Bess broke into a pe-al of laughter that brought I'beebe in freim the kitchen to see what was the matter. "I say, John, wouldn't it be nice if Mr. Jones was to marry Jemima? 1 wouldn't have to ele anything then, yeu see," con tinuetl Bess, her mind relapsing back to her own elilliculties. This was John's oppetrtunit'. The idea came to the front, anel he blurted it eut before he had time te think. "Why couldn't yon marry me?" " Oh, Jeihn!" shriekeel Bess, in such an excited manner that John upset his ceil-fe-e on Jcmtna's e-lean table-cloth. Then site jumped up and flew to the window. There was no goat now to look at, emly a gloemiy street, wrth the rain pouring eiewu. She did see half a potato borne alemg by the rushing torrenis in the gut ter, and in spite ef the wonderful event that had just happened to her, thought ef the goat, and hoped he would get it. John was agitated, toe, but now lie had begun the business, it diet neit alarm him nearly so much as the thinking abeiut it had used to eh. He gave up all further attempts at a breakfast, however. It had been an unlucky breakfast from the be ginning, and John frequently epuoted it afterward as the worst meal he ever made in his life. After Bess' frantic rush to the window, lie was veiy much at a hiss what te de next. He wished that Be-ss would say something, but she evidently had ne in tention of doing anything of the kind; so, after waiting a few minutes, he went to the window, and, summoning all his courage, he gathered the little black fig ure all up in his arms. Be-ss made no re sistance, emly began to cry. This was Bess' usual w ay of managing all enur-ge-ncie-s. Whenever her native impudence faileel he-r, as it did em this ex-casion, she always began te) cry. John was familiar with this peculiarity, and so it eiid not alarm him. He emly kisseel the little mouth very tenelerly, anel as he did so, a shabby little sleeve stole: gently rei.ind his neck, and the tears fell e.n his shirt bosom and took all the starch eut ejf it. As soon as Bess could eommand her feelings sufficiently to speak, and ceuild gain posscssiem of her mouth for that pur pose, she said, " Oh, John, won't it lie an awful load off Jemima's mind?" ates. It was inspired by disloyalty, afitl prosecuteel by all the arts of duplicity. T IwMcnrnr unpi'ml tl.ia ntirn.'c t ( show to the people that the Demecratic ... 2- I l..r l.v..

The- malignancy of the Democratic ex Confederates ef the National House of Kcprcscntativcs was shown in a vivid manner by M r. Blaine em Monday last. Knott's duplicity and Hunton's sharp practice were presented in clear outline. The almost, innumerable tricks by which Ilunton prohmged the investigation from elay te day, and carrie-d it beyonel the le-gitimatescope of the resolution, and the supp-ession by Kneitt ed important testi mony in support ef Blaine's innocence, were drawn in bedd lines, as if em canvas, and held up to the view ef the eonspira tors, to the ir utter dismay. All reports agree that the scene was dramatic beoud elescription. In Blaine's impetuous as sault upon his enemies there was the art ef the erator, the ingenuity of the trainee! politician ; but, above all, the conviction was irresistibly enforced upon the excited audience that before them stood an honest man, penetrated through and through w ith an intense se-nse ed emtrage, tired to a white heat of indignation, and roused to that sublime attitude whence a brave man, beset by assassins, hurls elestruction at his foes. He analyzed the committee appointed to investigate him, and charged anil proved that it was compose-el of men who sought revenge for blows given in fair debate. He held Iluntem up te the seorn ef the House and the country as an unjustjudge sitting to convict by the elistortion of testimony. He arraigneel Knott as au inquisitor suppressing impor tant testimony in a e:ase involv ing the honorable name e)f a fel low member. He: pilloried these two men as would-be assassins of his reputa tion, anel left them in the stocks confess edly guilty, a prey to the slings of re morse and objects eif measureless con tempt. He reassureel his friends by a vin dication as simple as it was conclusive, and electrified the House by the masterly manner in which he exposed the treachery and duplicity of his ene mies. If the scene was uuparal lekd, it was simply because the ec casion was unmatcheel in any history. The-re was an attempt in lytil to dis member the Government, te erect an in ele pci.dciit government from a portion ed' the territory of tiie I'niem. But the pur pose was boklly eJeclareel. I tie gage of battle w as thrown at the feet of loyalty, and war w ar uncompromising and to the eleath was declared. To-day the situa tion is vastly eiillcrent. It is propesed practically to destroy the L'niem under the very folds eif the L'niem flag. It is pro posed to nullify the Constitution in the very act tf swearing to suppert it ; and Ben Hill and Tucker and l'roctor Kneitt and Ilunton, with three-score; elhe-r ex Cor.federate Generals, Colonels and Cap tains, are sent to Congress to push the scheme eif treae hery and treason to a con clusion. The lirst step of the conspiracy was the prepesitien that Congress should force amnesty upon Jell Davis, the head eif the late Confederacy, in the face ef his pren-laimed scorn and open hostility to the Union; a proposition to eteity the Conlederncy by a recognition of the jus tice eif rebellion. It was a monstrous proposition; every ex-Confederate and every Northern Democrat in Congress supporteel it. James G. Blaine steiod in the way. From his place in the House he declared its utter infamy, pro testeel against it, and in an impetuous assault bore it to the earth and pointed the finger of scorn at it as the new rebel lion, strangled! In that remarkable de bate, which marks an era in the history of this country, Mr. Blaine elrew from the ex-Confederates a eonlession of dis loyalty. In their madness they hastened to defend with vehemence the Confedera cy and its chief, and eve.i went so far as to justify the horrible cruelties committed against humanity and the spirit of civil ization at Andersouville and other hell holes of the South. As this debate pro gressed it become evident that the slum bering Confederacy had planted its guns in the hall of the National House of Rep resentatives. Mr. Blaine unmasked these guns, and exposed to view the insedent ex-Confeekrate perjurers who manned them. It was at that time that the infa mous conspiracy against Mr. Blaine took form. Into it en tercel the elements ot chagrin and hate. This is the secret of the investigation which has resulted so disastrously, not to the investigated, but to the investigators. It was an inquisi tion upon a Lnion man by cx-Confeder- A Man Frozen to Death in the SluU die of M.ay. Twei Swedes, crossing the Snowy range en foot, left the: Summit House, in Berthenid Pass, Sunday, and started down the west slope. They were Intending lo go to Hot Sulphur Springs. Both men carried bundles of blankets and provis ions, each pack weighing seventy-live or eighty pounels. On Tuesday evening one of the men returned to the Summit House. He was snow-blind, frost-bitten and had barely strength enough to walk. He re ported that his companion had frozen to death. Seiem after leaving the Summit the storm set in, and they became bewildered, be numbed w ith cold, and lost their way. They threw away their blankets to facili tate their movements, and the matches with which they were provided, being wet, refused to ignite. Had they been ex perienceel mountaineers, they would have wrapped themselves in their blankets and sunk into the snow, where they might have lived until the storm abated. The survivor withsteiod the terrible exposure anel readied the Summit as aliove de scribed. A party of men at Summit went down the trail, or road, and on Wednes day found the dead Swede. The snow was seieleep that the removal of the body secmeel out ot the question then, so they buried it temporarily under six feet of snow, and wiii leave it there until its re moval for permanent burial can be ef fected. The dead man's name was Gett fried Meyer. His companion's name lias not been ascertained. Upon the boely eif tiie unfortunate Sweelc were found some photeigraphs, naturalization papers, the address of Samuel Beader, Denver, and some lo in money.- Dtnicr Col.) J'cim, May 27.

Tins is the way they cook shad in Phil adelphia according to a correspondent of the Chicago Tribune: A plank, generally of cedar, two feet long, a foot wide, and two inches thick, is taken, and with it a shad. The fish properly split through the back and dressed is laid upon the plank, with the; outside out, and secured in place by a few nails. Then the whole arrangement is placed before the fire, and the shad is cooked by the heat. When he ami vou are ready, he is brought to the table and placed before you. A litth: salt and less pepper, with collaterals ot stewed corn, green peas and tomatoes, bread, butler, and such odd trilies, and your planked shad has gone w here it will do the most good. Slick to Your Farms. The life of a fanner is not an easy one; but when we look around and see tiie wrecks of fortune made on every hand by men engaged in other pursuits, the farmer has cause: to be thankful if he can support his family and give his children a good common education. It has been stated that during the last half century only four merchants, in the city of New York, out of every hundred have succeeded in mak ing their business profitable. The unsuc cessful ones have managed, in many cases, to contiuue in business for years alter the y had become bankrupt according to their books; but, of course, finally had to succumb to their fate. These men, while living in good style, and many luxuriously, have: carried continually a load of care that no farmer ever experi enced; and w hen the time came that their business must lie wound up. their condi tion generally has been oneof poverty and utterly broken down in spirits. A few recover aud resume business again; but the: majority arc pushed aside to make room for others, eventually to follow in their footsteps and end their lives in misery and despair. Fanners, lie contented. You may not tie able to lay up money; but if you can pay for your farms and live comfortably, envy not the condition of those engaged in other pursuits. To those farmers who are out of debt and own good farms, need I say that the apparently wealthy bankers of Wall street might we ll envy your lot. Nearly every week some 01, e of these firms, ow ing millions of dollars, explode-, and its members sink into pove rty and ob scurity; but the farmer who is emt of debt owns a bank that can never fail, inasmuch as seedtime and harvest are promised unto the end of time. A word to farmers' sons. If your fath ers own good farms w hich are not mort gaged, elon't all abandon, your homes. One of you. at le-iist, should remain to carry on the: farm when your father's le ase of life has expired. You might pos sibly do better in some other business, but you had better not risk a change.

The recommendations are as strong for one as for another. The cures claimed to have been wrought t-V 'ne areas wonderful as those claimed to have lie-en wrought Py another. In bii perplexity and doubt, the siillcrcr is sometimes led to reject all.

Ill such a case, perhaps the only ab solute proof that a remedy is what it claims to be, is to try it The "'test of a pudding is the eating of it." " Prove- all thing-', hold fast that w hich is gooel." is the apostolic in junction. There may, however, lie stronger presumptive evidence in favor of one reme dy than there is in favor of another, and this should lie allowed its elm: weight.
