A Hklt,
ROMANCE OF THE HAIL.
Among the nlaa iant thiugH in an
itinerant Huheiniiui life I count the per
petual meeting nt most unexpected
phuvs di people whom yon have known
before in widely different localities. An
hour ago my friend and I started for a
stroll on this matchless Galveston
beech. All the afternoon we snt on the
upper galh.'rv watching the loim low
surf-crests that
Btirelv landward
crept ao slowly and
all the aft erno'jii we
had Listened, ia (he paaaei of mr Light
chattering, to the ct useless re frain
which those same white-capped waves
-were chanting, till the besilBj of the
scene ami the siren song tempted us
down to the hove. Oh, it. was lovely,
ejontering thither osref the oleander
planted walks, breathing their rich, ex
quisite perfutxe and gathering handfnls
of the pink blossoms. A few carriages
had oonse for the regular tifTiBoi drive ;
si me German womea were gathering
shells; a few children, with bare,
dunpled feet, were wadiDg ut Into tlie
coming waves, to run back with screams
of laughter when aonie ewifter bill -u
Wiished up higher than the rest : and
over the whole picture there rest d the
mellow glow reflected from the crim
soned west.
The QQOPpante of the carriages raised
their eyebrows in johte amazement as
they rolled paist us, for a pleasure walk
was beyond their comprehension ; and
my friend laughed, telling me that she
always knew Northern visitors because
they loved to wander a 2icd, and Texans
never do.
"I'm inre they regard me as mildly
insane for my long walks ; but, see, this
time we have companions in our mad
ness," she continued, pointing to a pair
, who were standing a little distance be
yond. " Evidently a bride and groom," I
asserted, for
' Bath were young and one was fair,"
aud there were the usual unmistakable
symptoms of recent ownership quite
apparent in the air of the young man,
who just then folded the ladv's wrap
more closely, and caught her fluttering
vail till she had histened it stcurely;
and in the act she turned her face tow
ard us, startling me with its familiar
look.
" Isn't she be tutil'ul? " said my friend.
I answered her absently, since I was
hunting every nook in memory for the
counterpart of the fair girl before us.
I was sure I had known her but
where ?
An impertine&t wave came hurrying
up the btaehj uud in a moment the
bride's dainty boots would have sutl'ered,
but milord clasped In t iWlftly, and rais
ing h r, ran back a lew steps, coming
close to us. I knew then Where I had
M m the hepgy pair, but I wont very
soberly toward' them, only quietly say
ing :
" So this is what came of that jour
ney !"
l'y JoTS !" ejaculated my hero in
round English tones, seizing both my
handi ia a grip thai nearly crushed
them, while the bride bloehsd, laughed
and added her grueelul greeting.
Wasn't il an odd encounter? I lafll
s;'U thOM young people a1 Cheyenne, in
Sent niber. lM7;t: now thev met me
t.trolhng on the shore of the Gulf, and
my friend asserted that we had picked
up
something bi tter than shells this
time, for she demanded the story at
MM : and I will tell it to Mill ilist as I
told it to her.
On Friday, Bepi 12, 18781 like to
be sec ii rat. the Sin ft . ne.seo tram
Htoo 1 ..l. t i... SmmIi ,t ilmaKi wait,
ing tho arrival, from the opposite side
of th" Missouri, of Eastern ass ngers.
There were four Pullman cars attached;
throe were aire dy tilled, or engaged by
t legram, and the officials in charge
w. re grumbling beeanae " Boea Tweed"
and his party occupied six entire sec-
tious. The " Iioss" stayed closely in
his compartment, for Nast had made
his face ho perfectly familiar to every
one that he encountered more staring
than he liked. His daughter, a stately,
dignified lady, waited the start with evi
dent impatience, while the young gen
tlemen his sons aud their friends
stood in a group on the platform, Hmok
ing, apparently enjoying the curious
looka which were naturally leveled ut
them. They were bound for the Yo
Semite, and 1 have always marveled
that, when once so far away from
Gotham, the " Boss" didn't know
enough to sail for Hong Kong and stay
there ; but that " marvel" is not essen
tial to my story.
Wo we're picking away at lunches, eat
ing California grapes, and doing the
hundred listless things one always does
while merely "waiting," till the scream
of the anproachiug " transfer train"
sounded shrilly out, and we looked with
interest at the new passengers. Some
of them tie served our regards, others
didn't ; but we watched thetn all, men
tally summing up each particular case,
and utterly ignoring them thereafter, or
else resolving to win their friendship.
The first growp comprised a man, his
little, ineilicieitt, washed-out-looking
wife, a strong-minded nurse, and two
children, destined to be our torments.
Next came a widow and her daughter ;
the daughter wore glasses and was a
goose ; tne inotner, only paying lor a
single berth, grumbled an.1 fretted moBt
nillKir ui in:, Kiuiueu 11 llll in ui u luiil
impolitelv when the other seat and berth ,
of the section was assigned to a tall,
spirited-looking English girl, with
Whose splendid ieves and queenlv ways
ii- .ii . .i i i i ' . Ji 1
I tell directly and deeply in lore. Bat,
dear friends, don't jump at conclusions,
for she isn't my heroine of the bench.
Listening to the ill-bred matron, I
hardly noticed a bevy of young girls
who had entered at the rear door, or
two dreadfully bridish brides and their
spouses who had likewise claimed tin ir
places. My English beauty, utterly
disgusted with her rin-d-rin, asked fora
place iu my section during the day, and
we became so delightfully confidential
in ten minutes that I learned she was
from Nova Scotia ; that this was the
eleventh day of her journey, and that
her destination was Sacramento ; while
the merry-faced, handsome young man
whom she ordered about with such su
preme nonchalance was her brother.
Meantime, we heard from the rear
sections peals of merry laughter, the
aforesaid infants gave us peal on peal of
dreadful yells, and we took dishonora
ble peeps in the toll-tale mirrors to
watch the "spooning" of the brides.
Our handsome young man roamed up
and down, and tinally, with a wicked
ly mischievous face, came to his sister,
suggesting that she should go and watch
the view from tin end of the oar. 1
knew his motive, so I went too ; but he
made nothing that time, for his list) f
never even tnancetl at tlie prettv trirls
we passed. We looked from the pi it-
h-rni a fAw minutes; our hero stood
twisting his mustache with vexation,
kill, growing desperate, he remarked
" Suv. Hidnl That L'irl with the
dsrk eyes is atnnning, isn't she f I wish
von would imaIm In : i -i w m "
" Indeed ! Ihnt'a the view you ad
mired, was it ? Well, sir, I shall do
so hing of the kind. I have no vocation
for 'stunning' girls. Come, Mr. D.,
' s go back I"
Evidently used to such anubbing,
Tom that wasn't his name, but we'll
play it was made a mocking salute,
and retorted, laughing :
"Well, madam, I'm quite equal to
helping my- If, You just wait till you
want to know some 'stunning' fellow !"
Bfadge only gave him a look of su
preme contempt and walked off, tossing
ovi C her shoulder a command to fetch
the hamper, for she was hungry, and
no rapper could be had till we reached
Grand Island ; then, turning to me, she
said with au exceedingly ancient air,
Positively, that boy is too ridiculous !
He gets silly over these American girls
all the time ; but I won't help him I"
" That boy !" I repeated with intense
amusement; for the dehnquent stood
six feet high, and was evidently older
than the mouitress, who lectured him
in the gravest fashion all the while we
were nibbling at the contents of that
never-to-be-' orgotten hamper. It re
minded me of the famous one which
Mr. Wardle carried to the races, and I
think we enjoyed it as much as Mr.
Pickwick and his friends enjoyed their
tUfretco lunch, though the sleepy fat
boy was not in attendance.
The usual funny scene occurred dur
ing the stowing-away process at night ;
but the long hours passed swiftly, and
the M infants'' greeted the morning with
sundry how's of misery and fretftuneee,
which Waited us all too soon. It was
droll enough to see the way in which
everybody peeped from their sections
to investigate the "reason why," and
then, having viewed tho situation, each
suddenly discovered all the other cu
rious heads, and disappeared. The la
rut uting wail was from the stout lungs
of a four-year-old boy this time. His
mother, arranging her toilet placidly,
i paid no hoed to his screams, and the
little imp danced with passion. Sud
denly Madge showed a vexed face be
tween her curtains, and her ringing
voice called out imperatively :
" Tom ! for heaven's sake get a slip
per and spank that child ! lie's quuc
t io old t cry like that, and his mother
doesn't seem to know enough to manage
him !" Thel she vanished.
Fancy the laugh ! It began in a
chorus of stifled chuckles, but she had
IpokeQ for us all, and a hearty indorse
m- iit sounded from every berth, while
the amazed parent picked op her off
spring, slapped him soundly, and looked
round with a " Please ma'am-what-else-slmll
I-do?" face which was funnier
than Madge's prescription.
Onr train was "behind time," ami
breakfast was only a dim prophecy, so
we beguiled the hours as best we might,
watching for heutaloce which wouldn't
appear, spying several groups oi tlie
I r try, graceiui anteiopes, passing
swiftly through wide pr. id settlements
of tho funny little prairie-dogs, and
opening our .yes widely at the cactus
Which grew in such prickly profusion
nn either side of the track. I tonnd till
httlo
la.', oi my English beauty more ee
Chanting than anything else, for it was
as changeful as her thoughts. Sudden
h h xc'aimed :
"I wonder where Tom can hi '" and.
suiting the action to the word, she
darted in pursuit. She WM 0Jy fOM
a minute ; then, with a comically rue
ful face, she begged me to come, too.
We found the deserter cosily tucked
beside the very girl he hod admired the
day before, tor both of them wen occu
pying the same cur-step, while the rest
of the gay group were camped on the
platform. Of course 1 laughed, while
Madge evinced her presence by reach
ing over aud energetically pulling a curl
of the handsome head that was so dan
gerously near the young lady's rosy
cheeks.
Tom started, looked round, ami coolly
said : " Ah, Madgo ! I thought it was
you. Well, I can't very well move just
now ; but, Miss Ellis, if you can look
over your shoulder you will see my sis
ter. Miss Fairfax, allow me to present
Miss Kllis." .
Tho scamp certainly showed good
taste; for Miss BUisWM very lovely,
both in feature ami expression. She
blushed a little, but bowed as graceful
ly as ner position permitted, and her
voice was singularly sweet when she
said, " I And that Mr. Fairfax is an old
schoolmate of mv brother's. They were
at Toronto together !"
Tt was Madge's turn to blush now ;
not a little, but fuHoulyt while Tom's
mischievous eyes danced with delight
at her confusion, and I did some Yankee
"guessing" about that "brother,"
which proved quite correct, and then I
sat Mown CO warcn luruier uu i uevpiuww
and tooniovthe haopiness before me.

The train roared on. " Boss Tweed1
came out and stood on the platform of
his ear, watching the strange, desolate
lands we Wife passing ; gentlemen con
soled themselves with cigars; ladies
t t it d all conceivable changes of position
and read persistently ; while all the
happiness and delight in the whole train
seemed to OOB eutrate in the knot of
young people about me. Madge sent
for the hamper, the youug ladies
opened their baskets, and when we
reached Ch yenne I left Tom seated on
a reversed water-pail, with all the gay
girls around him pampering him by
offers of the daintiest morsels, and my
queenly Madge as merry as the rest, di
recting at him a perpetual volley of
saucy speeches.
They were all going through to Sacra
mento. My prophetic soul told me what
would happen, for the imprisonment in
a l'ullman cur for a week of two mutu
ally susceptible young people has an al
most certain result. t Nothing in Euclid
is surer than a flirtation, while some
thing more serious is very apt to take
place. Tom gave me his own version
of the story, declaring fate hud been too
much for him, for during those duys of
travel he had grown so used to caring
for Miss Bllie, SO accustomed to play
lllg a devoted lOVer "JU&t to CXM4
Madge !" that when their destination
was attained the force of habit made
him stili sick the TOUng lady, and "she
seemed so fond of him, that, well, really
row, you know, a fellow funis himself in
a queer pesition, and 1 had to marry
in t just to save her feelings !"
Tne pretty bride had heard nil this
before, SO she only rejoined with the
meekest air :
" I'm trying l show how sensible I
am of hie pure benevolence. "
"Altogether an accident !" but what
a delicious oonaequence ! I am telling
you true story, dear ftieials, and if
you will find out the history of many a
marriage it will be found to have had
an i quallv small beginning.
" And Madgo V" I think I hear you
aj, Well, Madge was going to Sacra
mento to Complete her engagement to
that same brother of Miss Ellis, who
had known " i om"at Toronto, and Tom
SSSCrta that she rules him splendidly.
I'd give something to see her eyes flash
agaui, but to-morrow I am to say good
by to my hero and heroine, who sail for
home, at Cape Breton ; and Madge is
keeping house in Sacramento. A. S.

To Da. R. v. naacni :
Your Discovery noeds only a fair trial and it
will do all you recommend it to do and more
too. When 1 was fifteen I caught cold and
f or twtnty-eig ht years I have ben a perfect j
wreck of disease, and all the medicines and
doctors' billu have ruu up at timet to two and
three hundred dollars, and never any better, 1
but worse, when 1 gave up all hope last J
spring Of living the Hummer through. I re-
ceiviid one of your Account Books, and told
my husband after reading it that it was too
late to try further, but ho said it was never !
too late. He went and bought two bottles j
and 1 found it wan helping me very much.
Siuco 1811 I wa troubled with Catarrh and
Sore Throat, and wan almost entirely deaf in
one ear. aud my voice was as dull ae could le.
There was constant pain in my head. Now
my head is as sound as a dollar, my voice is
clear, and I havo uwed ten bottles of your
Discovery. It has cured me of Catarrh, Sore
Throat, Heart Di-oaso. Spine Affestion and
Torpid Liver. My Liver was very' bad. My
skin was rough. When I put my hand on my
body it was like fish scales. Now it is as
smooth and soft a- a child's. In conclusion I
will say I have been Wad for three months. I
am a wonder to myself and friends. This is
but au imperfect statement: half has not been
told, lours with respect, Hhyrsa LacKitr.

Nature's Swat Remedy
FOR ALL
THROAT and LUNG
DISEASES!!
It is the vital principle of the Pine Tree, obtained
by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, b
which its highest medicinal properties are reuinea.
Tar even in its crude state has beea recommended bjr
eminent physicians of every tchvol. It is confidently
offerad to the aril icted for the following simple reasons:
I. It ctnirs, not y abruptly ttofiing the cough
but by dissolving the phlegm and astitting nature to
throw off the unhealthy matter causing the irritation.
In cases of seated consumption it both prolongs and
renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer.
9. Its healing principle acts upon the irritated sur.
Bice of th lungs, penetrating to each diseased Part,
relieving pain, and suidutng infiamtnatum.
3. It i'Urihies and KNKiciiasTHB blood. Positive
ly caring all humors, from the common pimpi. or
eruption to the severest cases of Scrofula. Thousands
of affidavits could be produced from those who hava
felt the aenelicial effects of Pinb Trer Tar Cordial
in the various diseases arising from impurities o
THE BLOOD.
4. Jt invigorates the digestive organs and restore
tke appetite.
