He might have added, what held prwnmiann inhisthought, that she was an orphan, and portbiz)le. "I most say-that I think be the maost nsible girl that I ever met; and her excellence there's none to dispate-devoting heryoung jife as. she does to the care of two queru lous old people, who areonlydistant ly related, when their own proper relations are indifferent as to the welfare of both. However,sinc in your acy the quality of the soul of womanhood depends upon its est casement, Iwould advise you to confine your New Year's call to eity imits in future. We shallnot prolong our drive so far into the country, for the sake of losing wine and wit, in favor of a quiet, un fashionable girl, who was not got teni up for the occasion." There was the slightest possible sneer upon the handsome lips of Harry Beadwell as these remarks were uttered, which was unperceiv ed by his friend Wordly, as they were whirled back toward the city. "What possessed them to come here," wondered Lucinda Whitford,I as she sat musing in her own quiet little room, after they were gone. "I only met themi once, at Cousin 'Eva's party, and then I fancied young Wordly was inclined to slight me because I was not in full Stoilet. I wonder why Eva always insists that plain, quiet dresses are Smore becoming to my style! Yet 1we are said tobe very much alike, and her's are so very different. I should think that when my clothes are~ all I receive for constant attand anceon hergrandparents, shesh.ol atleast allow me to exercise my own taste in their selection." She glanced inquisitively at the opposite mirror. A clear cut face, perfecti inut line, though lacking in bloom1 shone wey white and marble-like against &the dark blue serge the more. The ibend of harbhaadten4i linen at the throat were plain and simple-to "set off the elassic," as her artful cousin termed her style; or, rather, as y o ua n g Wordly thought, her lack of style. He was wealthy, and traveled, and his opin ions were of great weight within he circle surrounding the Fifth menue belle and her quiet cousin, Gheinda Whitford. His friend, Harry Beadwell, thought different Ly. But we will not anticipate. "Luoinda, come here and read his letter. My old eyes fail me nore and anore. It is from William. What does hesAy ?" queried the old1 nan impatiently. "First, that auntie and yourselfjI ome West and make your home here. Secondly- what is this?" i aid she, sweelng her band over he marble face, now crimson. 'Since Lucinda's distant relative, I on her mother's side, has been so I ocommodating as to die and leave cool hundred thousand, she will ko longer care to shut herself up with two old people." "He does ne great injustice," she exclaimed. 'But what does it all mean I" "Simply this: Your mother's I mcle has died, leaving her his pro erty, which falls to you, as her on y natural heir." "I do not understand. Eva and ker father must have known this." "He is Rainford's executor," he dded, in an undertone. "Now, as Imother, of course you will live with hem until you are of age, and we hal go to W m. You have been good girl, Lucinda, and may God ess .you!" Again it was New Years Day. I lany homes are ablaze with light I ad luminous with indescribable =saintions. Eva Rainsfordlooked harming in her dark beauty, with ier wonderful hair arranged in a oiffure a la Forbillon. The Auffy I rands seemed airy as light itself bove the misty meshes of her round >oint fichu. Her dress, an artistic, olending of blush rose,and cerese due, with a full garniture of point I me, festooned with blush buds and aue forget-me-nots, set off her love ness to perfection. And yet young, Fordly turned from her loveliness1 o the radiant vision at her side. A clear cut marble image, with mre high brow, from which the iir was swept in Maria Stuart rip des, surmounted by a double coro iet of cluster curls, whieh ooftened he lineaments into a wondrous eauty, then cascaded away into a ilderness of loosened tresses upon 1 lie perfect shoulders. Her dress af dead white silk was guiltless of,a me puff or ionnee, and the tout en-i anble unrelieved by so much as me ray of coloring. The overdress e putfed tulle was caught up hero atd there by a star or arrow of forwegian silver, and the bodie was relieved by a necklace of Geno se silver, delicate as frost work, md costly as pearls. Even the fas- 3 dious Wordly was forced to admit ier style was perfect." "Miss Whitford," he said, "you ie absolutely dazzling. Remain ire wileBeadwell and Miss Rains ord are refreshing themselves. Let' ne. ask you what I have so longed o ask ever since last New Yeir's. Willyoube my wife ?" Other callers interrupted them; mt Wordly knew women ; and her msawer, though a silent onie, sent he blood a mad race through his patrician veins. Beadwell saw it, :oo, with a strange heart burning -a bitterness toward the man who was his friend. "Are yountired, Cinda 1" said Eva, ater in the day. "Yes, a little. I am going round to see Nettie Crusworth; she has ent for me. Many of the Sacred Eeart girls receive there to-day, md they are going to have a nice :jiet time. Of course you know Beadwell will return to-night." "How should E know ; he did not belme. So don't be a hypocrite, sousin. You cannot be blind to he fact so patent to all others, that d worships the very ground you walk upon. A revelation seemed to burst upon uinda Whitford. Perhaps that is why he avoided her so sedulous Ly. Perhaps that was why he said once, "that if he loved a portion ess girl and failed to secure her, nothing could induce him to seek her if by any chance she became rich." Yet what difference could it possibly make now?i An hour later found her at the hone of her friend. The girls were oproarious, and scarcely heard the footman announce Mr. Wordly. Lucinda instantly darted behind the drapery which half concealed the bay window, bidding them be silent by a gesture. A roguish girl, who suspected how matters stood, rallied him upon his manifest penchant for the heir W., whih he stonBly denied. "What! you know the weakness is of long standing. Do not dis Olaim it." "You mistake me," he said, with i deep flush of wine or shame upon his cheek; "I deny the charge. Miss Whitford, the heiress, is tole. rable. Miss Whitford, the--" "I thank you, Mr. Wordly," said Lucinda, stepping into tue room. 'You will excuse me, Nettie, I must Zo. Good-night all!" There was a strange glamor over :be moon-touched streets as the arriage whirled homeward. Bitter iumiliation was upon her like a brushing weight. On the steps tood Harry Beadwell. Instinctive y she put her hand in his. He rembled visibly. " You love me ?" she said, simply. "As my own soulI Yes, passion as slain pride, and I am here to all you so, Lucinda." "I believe you," she answered; 'it is all sufficient." "Thank heaven !" was his ardent -espouse, and the New Year closed ost happily for those two.

[Albany Evening Journal.] FIFTY THOUS AND MIL. LIONS. DUX"Tn, Brail, November 10, L874.-The hour ismidnight, and I ive just come in a trifie jaded, but efore retiring I purpose, while yet he fact are vivid in my mind, to ive you some account of a wedding, attended this evening. It was a wedding, I make bold to say, the ike of which was never celebrated n either continent. The high-con racting parties to the marriage were Mia&, only daughter of Da 5ouna Cabral, the great diamond dng of South America, and George Irthur Throckmorton, a native of Kentueky, United Statesof America, who, for the past five years, has menu ueccessfully engaged in rail -oading in this country, with head inarters at Rio Janeiro. Da Souza Jbral is principal owner of nine of he richest diamond mines in South merica and from them, in the iggregate, he derives an annual in ome of not lees than $20,000,000. Eis interests in gold mines proba >y amounts to as much more, and [am cognizant of the fact that last Lugust he sold a one-tenth interest n the celebrated Bahia mine-of which, until then, he had been sole >roprietor, for $3,500,000, gold. His liamond interests in South Africa md Siberia he lately estimnated un ler Oath (in some legal proceedings >efore a court in Mina Geraes) at he enormous sum of $50,000,000 ! Ee has, beside, a great penchant for real estate, and I was but re sently informed by one of his agents, thoroughly trustworthy man, that Dabral's rentals in London and lasgow alone yield over ?150,000 bnually. In 1888 he purehased he patent for making eyelets, from I poor fellow whom he found starv gin agarret at Maranham. To-day he machine is extensively used all >ver the world, and Cabral draws 12,600 a day from this source alone. Ad then there are his sewing ma shine royalties that yield him some thing over $5,000 a day. [The cor ~etness of this last item is vouched !or by afriend of mine, who is the manager of the leading sewing ma-I shine company in Brasil.] Indeed, it is easy to tell what he is inte rested in, but hard to think of some hing that is anything in which he is not. It would be a puzzle to iaie a leading railroad in South merica or England, in which he ba not a stake. He takes in some hing over a million and a half a year from his steamship stock, and probably twice as much more from other sources. A cool, clear-headed an of sixty, six feet high,' straight as an arrow, with an eye like a eagle, a judgment as unerring as ate, and a decision as quick as~ ightning, with superb nerve, un sonquerable boldness, and an appa rent incapacity to blundering, Da Souza Cabral stands to-day the wealthiest man on the globe. He was lately asked by an intimate friend in my presence, if he had ay conception of the sum total of his possessions. He thought for a moment; and then quietly replied: "I could not swear that I was not worth-presuming that I could rea lize on all my property--$50,000, 000,000." He made thi .astound ing exhibit with perfect sang froid, but I must confess that as he spoke I felt something very like pity for him. I could not help but think how specially diffiult it might be fr him to stisfactorily solve the ~~~1 quets-amounted to $50,00. Bu the strangest thing in regard tA this bower I have yet to tell. It floor for the entire length was cov ed with camel's hair shawls, to mi mind a piece of preposterous, aye wicked extravagance. But the fa ther of the bride declared that s< long as it was his only daughte and only child whose marriage hi was celebrating, he would send he3 out of her home to the steam car riage that was to carry her away from him, over a pavement not like ly to be imitated in the future his tory of marriages in South America The shawls for this extraordinari purpose were purehased in London the order being for "the best thal can be had for gold," and the bill for the items amounted to the enor mous sum of $568,500. After the bridal party entered the train the shawls were gathered up, and to morrow they will be distributed amonq the poor of the district. PaucLYON PsI0Fs. And now a few words about the bride's present. They were by a* tual count, 1,840 in number, and the greater part of them, I noticed, took the form of either gold or diamonds. The mother's gift was a dinner set of 280 pieces of solid gold. Ih piece bears the- monogram ol Cabral and Throkmortou in dia monds. The cost of this proof of ma ternal affection was something over $4,000,000 in gold. In addition, Mine. Cabral gladdened the bride's heart with 1,000 yards of point lace; 365 morning, afternoon and evening costumes, one for each so cial division of every day in the year; and, to crown all, a certificate of deposit issued by the Bank ol England-England being the ob jective point of the bridal tour foiZ,000,000. Her father gave her titte deeds of magnificent towM and country house, in all the lead ing capitals of the irorld and the morefaNmoswatering-places. These many mangaoi are tioroughly far aished, and n each-es a tender re minder to XAlia of her maidenhood there is an *partment that eiactly corresponds in furniture and adorn ments to her own room at her a. ther's house. Not contenting him. self with this display of his bounty, Cabral preserkted her with as fine a steamship as could be built on the Clyde, with fall complement of sail ore under contract ior ten years service, anda with salaries paid in advance for the full term; one dozen milk-white Arabian horses, and, this as ajoke, 1,00pounds of aramls, a confection for whieb the bride is said to have a pro nounced liking. But ma caoWENGa GPr was a necklace that deserves to rank among the enumerated won ders of the *orld. Sixteen years ago, soon after Malia's birth, he be gan to collect the diamonds of which it is composed. Whenever or wherever he heard of a marvel ons stone he was on hand in per son or by agent and secured it. He had all Europe, Asia and Africa ransacked in behalf of the proposed necklace, and at one time agl made overtures for the celebrated Pitt diamond, which cost the Duke of Orleans, adeording to history, $675000, anid which Napoleon at one time wore on his sword hilt He was baf Rd in this attempt, how ever, much to his disappointment, but after ten years of unremnitting huntighe at last got together thirty of the largest and purest diamonda in the world, no one of -which was much inferior to the Pitt gem. Taking these to Amsterdam, he summoned the best talent in thai city, famous for its diamond cutters, and stated what he desired-which was that each of the thirty stonet should have a fantastic face cui upon it. Amsterdam at first said that the task was more than hurcu len-that it was impossible. Bul when Cabral stated the stupendous sum he was willing to pay for the nlfillment of his wishes, Amster dam reconsidered and consented to do its best. It did its best for five years, day and night, and the re. slt was that a week before the wedding, the diamonds, cut~, carved, set on a golden string, and all ready to embrace the snowy neck of the bride, wore placed in the hands of the jubilant Cabral. I happened to be present when Malia first wau shown the necklace, a couple oi days before she was married. She wore ablackusilk at the time, and her father, after throwing the bril liants, that contrasted so strongly with the color of the dress, ovei her head, stepped back a few paes to notice the effect. Having gazed at the flashing necklace for a min ate or so, he suddenly broke intc a loud laugh, and eriod out, morri ly,"My demr, .oa my life you'd de frtehdgtoalooove' forehadig cof Pa Souacomotive Thianaklm cost a rouasn mannaa anitine- ana ear wine. $116. problem of the camel and the nee dle's eye. I would not have devoted so much space to the father of the bride of this evening were it not for the fact that'otherwise the ac count that follows of the wedding might be received with incredulity. The bridegroom, foung Throck morton, is descended fromoneof the oldest and wealthiest families of the "blue grass country," as he loves to call it. He came to Brazl with a matter of half a million in his own right, and since has prospered fa mously, so that to-day he cannot be worth less than $6,000,000. But a poor pittance in comparison with his father-in-law's over-whelminly gigantic fortune, but still quite sufAient to relievehim from the imputation of marrying the fair Malia Cabral for money. He met her frst a year ago at aball at Pernam buco, and the result was a case of love at first sight on both their parts. They make'an exceedingly prepossessin couple-he tall, broad.shouldered, yellow of hair and mustache, and she a tiny, graceful, lovely-faced brunette. The invitations were written on parchment by artistic hands, in quaint text, exquisitely illuminated. Instead of being enclosed in paper envelopes, they were sent to their favored recipientseseh in its dainty box of sandal wood. These boxes, 1,000 in number, were manufae tured to order expressly for this wedding at Canton. EAch one of them was furnished with a look and key of solid gold, was exquisitely carved with cupids and hearts and other designs appropriate to the occasion, and cost $150. My own invitation lies beside me a I write, and I catch the delicate scent of the sandaL AN RARTMn PAMM. The residence of the great Dis mond King, at which the wedding took place, is situated a little over half a mile from Diamantina, which is, you know, the chief town of the diamond distriet The house is the complete realiution of the ideal castles of the regulation English novels, and the grounds connected with it are. the last expression of nature at her loveliest, reinforced by art at its most consummate. This evening the place eemed a paradise. Wax candles by the thousands, each caught and held in its place by a bronze figure, flooded the rooms within and the miles of ground without witha soft yet bril liant light. Here and there, on the green slopes, or in the rustic bow ers, or at the edge of some roman tic ravine, large music-boxes, im bedded a nd completely hidden from view in mos, played a soft and dreamy accompanimant to the voice of the fountains. One hun dred music-boxes were employ ed in this service, and the tunes that were pricked on their cylinders were composed especially for the nuptial night by no less celebrated a musician than Usz=& He receiv ed a draft of $25,000 for his witch ing work, and who shall say, that he did not earn it ? Certainly no one that listened to the music. The music-bozes will be distributed on the morrow among the bridesmaids and other guests of this evening, as unique remembrances of the wedding. 'Each of one them wasimn ported from Paris, is cased in mo saic, and elaborately finished in gold, silver, and a variety of pre ious stones. The hnndred boxes cost as many thousand dollars. The drawing-room in which the Ken tnckian and his "dark Brazilian bride" were made one flesh had one feature in its adornment which elicited the most fervent expression of delight and amazement from all who were present. I allude to the decorations of the four walls. They were one mass of full-blown white camellias from floor to ceiling, and a good sised diamond was inseted in the centre of each to cunningly counterfeit the dew drop. The ef fect was simply ravishing. It is estimated that the adornment of this one room called for an expendi ture of not less than $10,000,000. No diamond was given the role of the dew drop that was not white, and perfect "as the bosom of a star." A PATE OF FLoWERS. The entire distance from the Ca bral mansion to the nearest railroad station, something less than a quar ter of amile, was literally away of flowers-not under foot, but in graceful arches overhead. Thus a long, snow-white bower, fashioned entirely of roses, was the connect ing link between the drawing room and the drawing-r~oom car. The demand made on Flora for the materials for this picturesque cov ered way was unprecedent. -The fower-bill for the wedding-es Anuive af lhe item of band bon 000,980.88 Cabral showed me the receipts yesterday, so that I am a able to state the exact figures. D NWBDRMG TOIM - You must not expect from me .any description of the ornate and bewildering toilets worn at the wed ding-no, not even of the bridas rare raiment. I am indebted to a lady guest for the information that her dress was of point laee, founced, or rather garlanded, to the waist with strings of seed pearls, with voluminous train edged with a filagree of gold thickly set with diamonds. Her neck was circled by her father's wonderful offering, besides whieh there were diamonds banded on her hair and in brae lets on her wrists. She was certain ly the most blazing beauty I ev*r gazed upon. There was one feature of the wedding arrangements which struck me might better have been omitted entirely, or at least very materially modied,. but whieh, neverhees, in the mock it made of expense, was quite in keeping with all the other features. I allude to the provision made for the backmen who -drove the guests to and from the festivi ties. On the velvet lawn just out side the Cabral manson, a dozen or more Sevres vases were set corresponding in size and shape to an Ameriea peach basket-each one of which was heaped to the brim with thegold coin of the coun try. The drivers as they dropped their loads had their attention call ed to the curreney in the vases, and were cordially invited to help them selves. XMCBD a KuK DarTML As often as the vases were . emp tied they were promptly replenish .d by servants detailed for that sole prVose One of the hekmen responded so heartily to the invi tation that when the time came for him to drive baek to town'he was forced to request his two passen gers to favor him bytaking aseat on the bo. He explained, not without blushes and that tha issidn of his coach was oe cupied by the gold pieces he had accumulated during the evening ; and that he would not have taken so many had it not.jeen for the thought of a sick wife at home. Having listenad to him, his load, before mounting the box, returned to the house and related the inci dent to Cabral, who was so touched at the mention of the sick wife that, on udde impulse, he proprosed a subscription for her benefit. The response was general, and in a short time the snug sum of $10,090 was raised among the guests, to which Cabral added his own cheek for $40,000 more saying that he did not wish any heart to be sad on that joyful occasion. When the $50,000 were handed to the hack man, "a cordial-for yourailing wife, my man," as Cabral put it, he burst into tears, declaring that there never was sneh a man in the world as Da Sousa CabraL. A SuaBEr.-Wm. Wirt's letter to his daughter, on the "small, swet courtesies of life," conttains a pas sage from whieh a great deal of happiness might be learned, if heed ed: "I want to tell you asecret. The way to make yourself pleaant to others is to show them attention. The whole world is like the miller at Mansfield, 'who cared for nobody -no, not he-because, nobody cared for him.' And the whole world would serve you if you gave them the cause. Let people see that you do care for them by showing themf what Sterne so happily called the small courtesies, in which there is no parade, whose voice isastill to tease, and which manifest them selves by tender and affectionate looks and little acts of attention, giving others the preference in every little employment, at the ta ble, in the field, walking, sitting and standing.

A story is told of daugliter-of a prominent person now in the lec ture field, which is peculiarly in teresting and suggestive of uncon scious wisdom. A gentlean was invited to the lecturer's house to tea. Tmme4ialy on being seated at the table, the little girl astonish ed the family circle and the guest by the abrupt question: "Where is your wife?" Now the gentlean, having been recently separated from the part ner of his life, was taken so com pletely by surprise that he stam mered forth the truth: "I don't know." "Don't know !" replied the ensfant terrible "Why don't you know ?" Finding that the child persisted in her interrogatories, despite the mild reproof of her parents, he con chuded to make a clean breast of the matter, and have it over at once. So he said with aca1mness ghich was the result of inward expleges: "Well, we don't live together ; we think, as we can'tagree, we'd better not." He stifled a groan as the child began again, and darted an exaspe rated look at her parents. But the little torment would not be quieted until she exclaimed: "Can't agree! Then why don't you fight it out, as pa and ma do ?" "Vengeance is mine," laughingly retorted the visitor, after "pa" and "ma" exchanged looks of holy hor ror, followed by the inevitable roar. Some years ago, in one of our Western courts, three men-au Englishma, an Irishman, and a Scotchman were found guilty of murder and sentenced to be hung. The ,Tudge told them they could each choose a tree on which they would like to be 'strung up.' The Scotin promptly chose an ash tree, and the Englishman an oak tree.
