".Merry," said the new coiner, " if -ou want to see at owe the KWeetc-t andwid lesi Mglit you eve? iichcld, gt into the last ear but one on the train. TliereV an emigrant Uermaii woman, with tour little children, and daring the afternoon the youngest, a baby, lias died. The mother and other' children are iiicon-ol-able." "I can understand," interriiiited'he Miioker, " the sadness til -.iifh a bccne, but where is the swectiie sjmkeof ?" "I'm coming to that. The whole par ty have been taken charge by a young lady. Such a beauty! She dried the mother's tears and wijie.l the chil dren's noses. Jibe's a divinity! She 011 ly.netiU a few feathers 011 her shoulder blades to make a full fledged angle of her. If I was not a manned man, I'd never leave her till I'd made Mrs. An gelica Tovii-cd out of her." "Thai's a Miocrh which I shall faithfully report to Mrs. Agnes Townsend, " saidJside, and a highly scented party they tiegfiillemaiiaildn-sseil as Jlar-v, rais 11". " J snail go iiacKaini iea-i 111 v eves on this beaiititul Si-ter of Charity, and, " he aiJded, taking his traveling satchel and iawl from the nuk,"" as we stop at the next ."tation, which i" due in ten .minifies, I may jits., well take. my trap- thi-oHgU with me and, join aou on the I'jnEultelUaiifsniAMf tjn-ew his shawl over hiunkoiilder, m(f sauntered IpjmdvIv through the long train rushing blindly and calmly to his fate. For, a he entered the last car but one he became a witness and an actor in a scene that iu Uuenccd his whole future life. The poor, grief siricken (ierman,of whom.-) his companion, Doctor Townsend, had spoken, with the dead infant. in dier arms sat silntly weeping over the little dead face. The three -ttinly children, grouped in childish care about their little dead brother, was indeed atouchingspcitaclc. Hut, standing beside thein.wa th.- divini ty of DnctorTuwiiscnd'sniliiiiralion and she who was most certainly to "share the ends" of the unhappy l.iehanl. She was a tall, slender girlVjf eighteen, with magnificent eyes afid hair. As he entered the car she was speaking.her love ly law flushed, and the small, rosy mouth disclosing a beautiful set of tccth.tiirued bcwitchinglv towards the tall stranger at the door. "Ladies and gentleman," spoke up the sweet voiw, " this poor woman, friend less, speaking no Knglish, with four children, was expecting to tiiid work in St. Louis to support litem. If every thing had gone well with her, it would have been ban! tor her ; but with her little dead babv and her sorrowful heart she iswrtainly a deserving object of charity; and I propose that such as feel willing shall contribute their mite toward a little purse for her immediate wants and tothe burial of her poor baby. And," she added, with a smile, " if any gentleman will lend me a hat I will go round and take up a collection. " in an instant the gallant Richard pulled his traveling i-..p from his blonde curls and olfcrd it to the Angel of Mercy, who accepted it with a snide, this time all his own and conimenwd gathering the read ily forthcoming dollars her generous graceful appeal brought from the purses of all in the car. li'chard watched the slender figure in gray gathering the money; and, looking at the plaid cap in the white jewelled lingers, he bethought him of his own do nation, and stepping to the seat the leau tv had just owupied he laid his satchel anil shawl upon a family of its kind, le longing to the. angel in'grav, and took from Ids Mcket a ten dollaV bill, which he placed in the little hand that returned him his cap. Further damage the poor fellow received, when a necviiii smile and warmly worded thanks for hi" liberal contribution were dealt hini,iTtrom the beautiful mouth. Dick was in the midst of an elaborate reply, when the cars stopped. He lin gcred yet another moment, seized his satchel" and shawl with his eyes still on the face of his charmer, and "then, even as the cars were again in motion, he lie thought himself of the doctor,and hurri edly lift the car and joined his friend on the platform. "Well," ejaculated that worthy, "I began t believe voa'd concluded to go and bury the deal baby, and make the Erotecting beauty 31m. Angelica Marcy. ta'tshoa stunner?" 'Townsend; "returned his friend, "doVt bso slang in speaking of the noble creature." lie looked after the train last 4iMpncaring in the distance " I . . a" n a . a u iJ WHtataaeaven, nc conunateu, re ined aboard, How stBfwH was .to leave it. I might have learned her name and residence. And now " "Now, in all probability," broke in the doctor, "you'll never meet her in this vale of tears. Jiut you II know tier in heaven, if you behave yourself well enough to get there, by her wings; for she II have the biggest ot any ol them, seeing they've commenced to sprout on earth." And thus rallying his thoroughly cap tivated friend, the two made their way to the house of an acquaintance with whom they were to remain that night, and go on the next day to their destina tion St. Louis. Afterthc first salutation, our hero went to his room to remove some of the evi dcuw of his long ride from New York. He hail removedliis coat, vest and collar ; he had splashed and soaped and washed, when he made a. startling discovery. Flushed and breathless he burst into the next room, upon his friend. "Townsend," cried he, "what upon earth do you suppose ? I've got the wrong bag. I've changed baggage with the Angel of Mercy. Look at that slipper. See that thimble. Contemplate that love." "It's evident you've got the lady's sutchcl. And what was there in yours ?" " Don't bring up that dreadful idea," said Dick. " Cigars and a hair brush, a pack of cards and a comb, pocket flask and a tooth-brush every thing disreputa ble. If I am ju-'-'od by that bag, I'm a lost man. "And this I took for a cleaii shirt," and Dick held up a frilled and tinted sack, sueh as do duty for more exeliisive night-dresses with ladies when traveling. ' I'd like to see Angelica when she opens 1113- satchel." And Dick fell to musing, with the slip per perched 011 two fingers, and the frill ed white sack spread out tenderly 011 his knees. In the upper apartment of a handsome mansion in St. Louis, 011 the evening of the day our heroine first made the read cr's ncipiuiiitanw, beautiful I telle Allien, ietted and only daughter of the house, sat contemplating the various articles her confid uitial maid was disposing upon the articles taken from no les. a recepta cle than Dick Marty's traveling bag. The cards and cigar rase lay side by wen "What's in this little silver I!osa ?" said the fair mislivss. ll.t-.lc, "JJrandy, ma'am," replied the maid. "lie can't be very I'Sssipatcd, to travel with such a little bottle. That's in case of sickness, I suppose," returned I" die. "It is my belief," said Uos.-i, w'i. was a shrewd girl, "that the geiitlem.t was a mighty nice one, else you'd no read ily excuse the cards and the bottle." " For shame, Kosa. All gentleman play euchre traveling, and even clergy men taken little brandy in the case of sickness," answered Ik-He. " And this man was a gentleman, and a liberal one, too, for he gave the poor emigrant wo man ten dollars What's that, UosaJ"' For, at that moment, I'osa held be tween her lingers a litter. Whether it was wrong to read a stran ger's letter vexed Jielle for a moment, as her eyes glanced at the superscription and hand-writing. " Why, of all things! " exclaimed the delighted girl, seizing the letter. " Why, Kosa, this is Jenny .Marcy's writing, and addressed to l.iehanl M: rch her" only darling brother who was in Kurope when we two graduated at Madam Hit ter's in Urnoklyn." llelle read rapidly till she had reached the middle of the letter, when she burst into a merry laugh. "Hear this this Ko-i'aiid she read from the letter: "Above all things, Dick, dear, don't fail, while in St. Louis, to see my best friend ami schoolmate, llelle Alden. I know you will fall in love with her, for, besides being the best girl in the world, she's a beauty and an heircs, and lather's choice above all others, for his sou's wife. He used to talk it over at home, and hope llelle would not marry before you came home from Kurope. She is full as anxious to know you, and wears your hair and mine in a locket father gave her last year. Give her lots of love, and beg her to overlook your many inier fectious for the sake of her old school mate, Jenny." "Then tin's gentleman is of course, Miss. Jenny's brother, said IJosa," ' and what will she say when she hears of your having met in this romantic way ?" "1 don't intend to tell her of it till I go toew ork this tail, said IJellc. " IV-rhajis her brother will call." But in this supHtsitiou Hello was mis taken. The month iia.od, and she saw no more of the goIdcn-hcadd Kiehanl. And she carefully separated the yellow loek in the little keepsake from the dark tress of Jenny's and put it back into its plaw alone, while another locket held the bit of Jenny's. And, however, Itelle looked very, very, often at the wee gold en curl, and she never did so luit the rest of the handsome head sprang up beside the lock; and s!ie would sii and coutcm- late the picture her fancy wrought for cr, little dreaming the intenst she was allowing to grow in her bossoni for Jen ny's brother.

And so Belle thought, as hc looked at her old slipper and glove lying lieneath a globe on either side ot the t.ulhtul Uichartl's mantle. " And," said Belle, " since he desires only to meet me 011 the morning of the wcddmg,-soit shall lie. I will lie intro duced only as we are leaving the house, and he can do as he pleases about con tinuing the uctiunintance afterwards. Uelle was radiant with happmes- when she returned to her father, and delighted Ins tond heart by the change, for Belle had been very quiet ot late. Jciiuv and Uelle shopped and talked and visited together for the next few lays, and when the eventful morning ar rived, and amid a bevy of lieautiful girls, Uelle shone like a queen, the bmle was eclipsed, and delightfully acknowledged it. "Oh, Belle!" she tried; "I long to lave old stoical Dick see you .Hark! there's" his step. Come into the next room now, and lie lutrotittwii. Uout wait till the carriages come it's an hour yet." And 15c lie, with a beating heart, swept through the door and stood even as Hick firt saw her, only, in place of the gray traveling dress, 11 magnificent white satin fell in rich folds about her, 011 her lovely white throat lay the turquois locket that held Dick's golden curl. Upon the beau tiful head, ero.vned by its thcstnut hair, a caroual ot pearls added to the grace and beauty ot an image that, shrined in Wick s heart, was already an angel Belle did not look up, but she feet the 'IV lai presence, as liicliard Marcy came up and was introduced to little Jenny's old schoolmate. Then, as he held out his hand, she raised her eyes, and laid her tiny balm iu bis, and said: "1 think we had better rectify that mistake about the traveling-bags, Mr. Marcy!" "tiood Heaven, .Tennv !" said Dick Marcv, " Why didn't vou tell me that vour friend Belle was my "Angel ol "Mercy?" " Because I did't know till last night, and then Belle made me prnjnise not to tell. And besides, you didn't want to meet the freckled schoolgirl till it was positively necessary," returned Jenny, mischievously. It would be luird to say which of the four that made Jeny's bridal Jarty was tin happiest that day. Dick did not go to Paris that winter. He found that St. Louis contained mure attractions than any foreign city. But the next fall will see Dick and Belle on their weddingtour, and he vows he will have the two old ramantic trav eling bags brushed up for the occasion. Doctor Townsend, who is to go along, says he knew the minute he saw the girl dfe would one day be Angelina -Marcy, as ho " felt it in the air." hb m aw - - A Bui Tree. A section or the " Origi nal Big Tree" of Calarerous county, California, recently arrived at Boston. The tree from which this section is taken was cut in 18."3 ; five men worked twen- tv-tive days in telling it, inesunapea smoothed off now easily acconuaodatcs thirty-two dancers. This tree, whea standing was three hundred and two feet high (nearly a hundred feet higher than Bunker Hill monument!, rrom a sec tion forty feet long a hotel was construc ted. A saloon and double bowling alley, more than eighty feet long, are built uiKin a itortion ot the nrostrate'tmnk. The bark was- from fifteen inches to two feet in thickness and a section was brought to New York for the Crystal I'alace. A jMirtion was also sent to the Crystal Pal aw. Emnand. at the time ol the world's exhibition. The estimated age of the tree was alout twenty-five hundred years. The weight of "this section, at thirty feet Irom the ground, is eight thou sand pounds, its diameter nearly sixteen feet, and t.ircumfcrenee forty-six feet. It is the only section of the solid wood of the tree orer brought from California Hex Ware at Sea. In the summer of 1 lfio, "Old Ben" made a voyage down South for the benefit of hi liealph.

Seth Hawkins was as fine aspecimea of j manhood as can be seen tall, broad- shouldcrcd, well proportioned, eyes of tlie deepest blue, light hair, and ruddy countenan w, which U-tokened a familiar ity with out-door occupation. Suffice it to say, he was a farmer, and wcll-N - lo in this world's goods, but alHictcd'with a disease called bashfuiucss. He was deeply in love with a pretty, sparkling, rogulah-eved lass, whom we shall call Sally T '-. Seth coiiM talk politics, farming, ami upon all the usual topics of the day, when not in Sally's comtiauy '; but when he really became seatetl in her presence, his courage left him, and ho left all the talk ing to Sally. anwentr only in uionosyb- lablrs-. . . , The latter guessed how matters sttrisl with htm, and, in a spirit of mischief, in creased bis einbamissment by several little remarks which almost drove him to distraction, and made him think his case was hoplcss He had courted Sally a long time, hail never found sufficient courage to know his fate. One pleasant Sunday evening, he again sailed .forth, determined to know the worst,aud to ask Sally to ,be his. lie found her sitting by a liright blazing fire in the kitchen, ainflookiug prettier than ever, with her rosy cheeks and laughing eyes. Her mother sat in an old fashion ed rocking chair, reading her Bible, while a candle, sittingonastaud close by, serv ed to light the appartmeiit. She seatetl him in a chair near the fire, and after making a few remarks,to which he gave the nsaal monyosyllabical an swers, he looked up, and caught Sally's eye, and she immediately turned her head, with a smile. He felt the blood rush to his head and law, as he scanned his person over to see if he could discover the cause of her mirth, whenlo! on turning his head half round, he discovered some white cloth behind him. Now, the question was what it could be. He awaited another opportunity, and when Sally was not looking, put his arm behind him, and slipping his hand under the edge of bis jacket, prorcccdcd to push it down into the back of his pant. He telt a relief, and, on looking up, perceived that Sally was convulsed with suppressed laughter. He looked around again, and, to his utter astonishment, fonnd that, instead of the cloth diappcaritig, it seemed larger than before. The perspiration started at even pore, and with a quick, nervous push, he ma le another effort to get out of sight. Auoth er opportunity soon presented itself, when he made a finish of it, and with the -perspiration standing iu drops all over his forehead, he felt almost out of patience with Sally for building stub a hot fire. At the moment of its disapc.-imiiw, Sally, who had In-eu watching affairs 011 the sly, burst into a loud kmI of laugh ter, and rushed into the room adjoining, giving the doora loud slam, which caus ed the old lady to look up with astonish ment, and Seth to seize his hat and rush from the house, toward home, as fast a his legs could carry him, and iu anything but a happy frame of mind. Stilly soon made her appeamnw again, and her mother remonstrated with her upon her unchristiaulike conduct ujkii a Sabbath evening. Sally bore it with as much composure as possible, but said nothing to her moth er of the cause of her mirth. I'retty soon the old lady made prepa rations for bed, and soon began to search for her night-gown ; but failing to find it, came out ot the bed room saying: "Sail, where is my night dress ? I left it somewhere, and I can't tell for the life of me, where." " l'hu SUh JLiicIIm icore it hmnf I " she replied. " What! wore it homo!" Amid tears and laughter, Sally explain cd the event of the evening to her moth er. The next afternoon a boy rapped at the door, and presented a pack ige for Miss Sally, which she soon ojene I, and found thennlaeky night dress, " niwly washed and ironed, with the following words, signed " Paal," written on a bit of paper, in encil : " I am much obliged for the use of it." The next time ther met, he fonnd hi bashfalncss had disappeared, and lefore leaving Sally, he had gained her consent to be his own little wife. Habits or Borext Betas. The family breakfasted at nine.

Energy on the part vf a new State or Territory, like energy applied in any business, has its reward. As an instance, the territories of Kansas and Nebraska claim bat about llrt,OU0. We sitttply mention tlie tacts to illustrate tlie benefits of advertising. Kansas was the best ad vertised territory ever admitted as a State into the Federal Union. John Brown, whose soul is still supoul to be 011 eternity's grand march, was the first great ad vcnisciiicnt Kansas had. In thai line he was a success. Virginia asistd materially iu so doing when she choke! the old mail to death. Nebraska has jast as good land as Kansas, but larks neri'iicrgy, her progressive, live, wide awake imputation. That is what's the matter. Nebraska was arl nettled by a chans of easy-going Puritanical doswnd ants who thought all they had to do was lo" squat "down on 11 quarter section of land and the Lord would either shower itianiiadown upon it, as in the olden lime, or convert the tract into lots at from one to 0110 thousand dollars a loot. Kansas, with its mongrel population from all sorts of communities and Stalcssooii found they hail to " not hog or die," and with all their droiithy weather, their ieculiar ly alterating crops, fearful winds, Ac, by tooting a loud horn a judicioiis.svstcm of advertising -she has gone to the front rank ol Western Mates and more than dotibbtl in ten years the family increase vf her sister Nebraska. This is the effect of advertising Scdalia (.Mii.,)Ai.m. The ab.ivo is to great extent true, but it is tinctured with the old spirit of mali cious jealously which even to the present day afflict acertaia class ofMissourians, whose proclivities ntsed not be menlioii. ed. Kansas has belHs to make history, but she has a superiority iu climate and soil, which is fully as attractive as her attractive as her historical renown. As rouiiun.il with Nebraska, Kansas has ad vantage in climate ami soil which can not be denied. As to the mongrel pop ulation, in one important particular it is entirely tlestitute of mougrelisni all are intelligent, as all acquainted with our pcoplu know. They build more chun lies and school-houses, and support more newspapers in proportion to the popula tion than any State in the Union. As t drought, 110 one licttcr knows that this clap-trap bugbear is only a means resort ed to turn the tide of immigration in his own direction, than this same editor of the Sedalia f.i.ro'). It seems strange that a few miles should work such a radical and complete change iu climate and at mosphere, or that I lie. simple iiivideut of a State line should produce so wide a dilTervnw in natural advantages.

The marriage ol a daughter of the ijuccn of Kuand with a sou of the Duke of Argyll has brought out a number of curious pirticiilars cotineetisl with the Cam Ik-I Clan, of which the Duke is chief. Perhaps t(ie iiioi curious of thrsois 30 old prophecy, iu the following singular words: Whi'n llf mole shall rei-li the Mull; when the holly-tree near Iuver.iry shall Is'ilestroyed; when a road shall be made throughout the country; when Im-IN shall ring trom a rock in 1m-Ii Fyne ; when Stroiie Point shall lw covcrol with woods, and when the Atlantic shall flow into lOfh Fvue, then shall the Argyll Campbells be driven from Kintyre. exu'pt tu. many as shall escajte on a crooked and a. lime white horse. If this ppipheey be really uueieut, il iintst, to those wlio first heanl it have appeared to jiromiso a Kjrietuity of tenure; and yet, strangely enough, nearly every one of the-.; conditio. 1 have been fulfilled, or is likely lo U. A shilf-c-.inal is pnjei1is which will bring the wafers of the Atlantic into JxhIi Fyne; Strone Point ha leen planted and is entered with wihmIs; a high ro.nl has Ihvii isjinjiletnl throiighuut the country, the Joeh Fyne ns.-k has Imvh qtiarrieil to make a lelfry for the chun'ha at Inverary. As for the holly.treu it la said lliat the grandfather of the present Duke insisted on an awk want leiid lM.iug made in tln.roail tin purpose to j.tre it; but its roots are now cxiKcd and threateneil by the tide. A large part of the Campiiell possessions in Cantire though not all. have paaaeil into the baitds ofpersons not bearing the name of Campbell.
