MY "FAITH." We we ra alatullng on tho plafia logellier, Mits Alice (irnyle nml I, ntul I was saying protty nothings to dor, to piss away the time, when I chanced to look down the long avemiHot elms, ami flaw ngraoeftil figure clad In sober gray, standing where an opening In the trees let tho smiBhlne through. The light fell upon the woman's hair, ami made It ahlne like gold. Iter face, as she lifted It toward the sunshine, was fair as the faoe of any child, pure, sweet, and with that Inno cent look in It which we always associate with children upon whose life the world has not yet left IU mark. "Who la Itt" I asked, breaking 0 IT rather ahrnnlly from my pretty spoeoh making. "Paltli Farley," Answered Mlsa Orayle with a flush of annoy anco. "A friend of my father's died and left this girl to his care He gave her a home and tent her to noliool. She came back to us yesterday, n finished young lady, I suppose." Mlsa Orayle laughed, but theto was noth ing pleasant In the sound of her merriment. It was like a discord. I felt sure that she did not like the girl with the sweet, Ma donna face. I wondered at It, for I could not understand how any one could help liking her. Snch a face woul win its way to moat hearts at onoe. It had to mine. "I should be pleased to form her acquaint ance," I said; "I like the looks of her." "Yon have got Into such a habit or mak ing flattering speeches to us women thnt you cannot rid yourself of it when speaking of them," said she, pulling the roses I had given her apart, and scattering their pink leaves over the veranda tn a vexeii way. it was plain that she had no love for the girl down the path. "1 was tu earnest when 1 said 1 IIKeit tnu looks of her," lanswered, "lamalwajsal. traded by a pretty face. It affects ma like pleasant music." "Wry poetical," alio said, with a ourl of the lip. "I never heard any one say before that I hoy thought Kalth l'ariey pretty. She always makes me think of a Quaker, with Iter gray gown and aly ways." "I always admired mitt, demnra little Quaker women," I answered. "I think yon mistake quietness for slyness ; you certainly do If by slynes yon mean artftilnes. I'll wager a good deal thnt the girl yonder is as artless as a child. She could not be other wise with f itch a face." "You seem to have been captivated by Miss Farley's charms," said Mlsa Orayle, and her void) had a round of Irritation tu It. "I admire her," I answered, "but I could hardly fail captive to her until I know her. Don't you think she would look well in a picture f If her eyes are as pretty as her face and hair, I should like to paint her, if I were an artist. She is so far away that I can not seen them well, but I venture the guess that they are blue one moment and gray the next, like a spring in sunshine and shadow. Am I not right, Miss Clraylu 1" "Faith, come here," called Mlsa Orayle I looked at her, wondering what she in tended lo do. Miss Farley came tip the avenue and stopped at the end of the path. "Turn your face to the light,'' said Miss Oraylx. "Mr. Ascott wants to see your eyes." The sweet, grave face was turned to me unquestiouiiigly for a moment, and I saw that her eyes were blue. Miss Orayle laughed. A quick, scarlet Hush stained the girl's face, as she under stood that the other bad been making fun of her, and she turned away with a 1 It le haughty lift of the head that pleased me, for it told me that she resented MissOrayle's unlady-like act. "You ought not to have Bald that," I said. "It puts me In a false position and it offended her." "What right lias she to be olTetided 1" said Miss Orayle, with a floiruful turn of her lip. "What would bjoome of her if my father did not take pity on her f " That was no reason, I thought, why the girl should bs treated as if she had no feel ings Miss Orayle was bonnd to respect. She might be poor, and dependent on the bounty of others, but that did not prevent her being very much like other women who nre more happily circumstanced. PerhapH Miss Orayle thought poor people could not, or ought not, lo afford the luxury of a sensitive nature. Later in the day I met Miss Farley walk ing in tho ground back of the house. She would have avoided me, but I prevented her from doing so. . "Miss Farley," I salJ, putting out my hand lo stop liar, "I want to tell yon that I am sorry for what Miss Orayle said this morning. I assure yon that I was not at all to blame In the matter, though you may think so fron what she said. I saw you, and liked your face, and said something abont liking to paint it, if I were an artist, aud I asked if your eyes were not blue. You are not offended at that, are ymt f" I asked, holding out my hand. "No," she said, after looking at me for a moment with frank, cleareyes, as if to make sure of my sincerity. "I am not offended at that, but ( am offended at what Miss Orayle said, aud the way she said it. However, that need not hinder our being friends, If you wlali It," she added, aud put her hand iu mine with all the confidence of a child. "I do wish It," I answered. I had a good opportunity to study her face, that afternoon, as we walked aud talked togetlior. It was not a faoe that many would call beautiful, and yet it was a lovely one. The cheeks had, now and then, a wild-rose color In them, and the pretty lips had a charming way of ourvlng over the white teeth behind them. Her pale, brown hair was as changeful in color as her eyes, bright gold tn sunshine, and full of bronze tints In Hie Bhade. A rarer, fresher, sweeter face I had not seen for many a day. More beautiful women I might have seen, I thought, as I walked baok to the house, but noue more charming. After that I saw a great deal of Faith Farley. I learned something of her past life from her own lips, but that little I learned without her being aware of tho faot. She evidently meant tn let no hint fall about the life she was living, but now and thou a stray word would find utterance, that gave me some in-tight inlo it, I found out that she was not happy, Mr, Orayle was her friend, Sim loved aud trusted him. Hut there was uo friendship between her and Mlsa Orayle. "I would like to teach," she said, "Hut Mr. Orayle will not listen to me when I talk of It. I would like to go away from this place. I am In the way an Intruder." Then she remembered, I suppose, that 1 was almost a stranger, and she said no more about her plans and wishes. It was uot long before I learned to love l'alth l'ariey. Alice Orayle saw the truth before I did. I know that I had offended her In some way, because she was so distant, and cold, and madejittle taunting speeches for whloh I oared nothing. One morning some of the visitors sat on the verauda, and the oinver nation ran on for a time about some marvel' ous faith cure that hail been reported iu the newspapers. All atonceMlssOrayle turned to me and arked me, with a smile that seemed to have an angry flame behind, as the cloud which i criminous of Btorms gives a lurid look to the sky at sunset, which I had to Bay about faith, I knew thou, nil Iu a moment, by her look and tone, that Blie wai angry wllh ine, 011 Faith's account. Him was Jeal ous of the glrl'ri lulliieiioe. And I knew, too, all in a momeut, that the. Interest I felt Iu Faith Farley was because I loved her. That afteruoou I was sumwoucd to tho city. I was gone a week. On my return I was told that Faith Farley had goue away They did not know where. Bhe had said that she could not tell tueui where she was going, because she did not know what he was todo. Bheco.lld not tell where the should stop. "She had soma queer notions of Indepen dence In her head," Miss Orayle Bald ; "ire could uot find nut much about her plans. Probably she hadn't any, She will doubt-les-i be glad to oome back before long," Miss Orayle tried her blandishments on me Iu vain, and Dually gave up In disgust. I had no love to glvo her, or auy other wouiau. I had given It all to Faith. I believed that she had driven Faith away, liut she was careful to let uo word full that would convict her of eo cowardly au aot. Hut I could see that Bhe was glad Hut Faith was goue, aud that Bhe was glad to kuow that I felt her loss more thau I ever con fessed tu her or any one else, She oousl lered It a proper puulshiueut for we, fur carlug more fur the poor girl thau I did for the proud heiress, At first I was sure I should soon find some trace of Faith. She had goue to the city. That was all I knew about her Might iutothe world. Heyoud this I was lu entire Igno rance of hor movemonts. Inqu'-y and search rovealod nothing. She teemed all at once to have disappeared utterly from our knowledge. Ily-anl-by I began to get ills couraged. After a year had gone by, and not a word of tidings had come from hor, I fell that she must bo dead. My 1 eart tnadu a grave for Its sweet, perished hope aud set up a white stone there, and on It wan Hie one word, "Faith," Then tho war broke out. 1 enlisted. I was In many battles and escaped without a wound until It came to tho lorj siege before Petersburg. Then I was struck by a ball and carried off the field with many others, lo suffer for dajs an! days from want of care more than from tho wound. Then n fever set In, and between the lock of caro and tho fever I was brought clown lo the gates of death. There I lingered, loth to enter. For many days life was an utter blank to me. Hut one morning a dim ray of con sciousness crept in across my brain, and I opened my eyes and looked feebly about me. I was lu a hospital. I could seo the long watds with the llttlo while beds ranged lu rows down them, palo faces lying on many pillows, and nurses ooming and going, here and there. Looking down the aisle to the door, I saw a woman olad In a soft, gray dress come in, A Bttnden thrill went ting ling through my veins. It was wonderfully like Faith's, as she stood in the shadowy door way, and it turned to gold when a ray of sun light fell npon It through an open window Just as Faith's hair had a trick of doing Suddenly she turned toward me. Then I rose up, villi a sudden strength bora of great Joy, and orled out : "Faith I Faith I" For It was her face thai I Baw. It had changed since I had soen It list. It had grown womanly and thoughtful and stronger, but It was the same sweet, tender face that I had loved so well, for all that. She heard me, and came toward my bed. My sudden strength gave way, and a kind of halt unconsciousness came over me. Hut through It all I knew enough of what was going on about me to know that Faith came to me, nnd bent over me, weeping aud call ing my name, and that she kissed me. Then I felt a warm thrill of life Bteat back into my veins, and' I opened my eyes and spoke her name faintly. Hut she heard It, and bent down to mo, crying out' "Oh, he knows met He kuows met I am sogladl" "Don't be frightened if I did faint," I said. "I am not going lo die; now that I have found yon, I couldn't." "Dou't let him talk inuoli," the old doctor said. "Keep him ns quiet as possible, and there Is some hope for him." I clung lo Faith's hand and would not let her go, for fear I might lose her again. She sat down by my bed, and look my hand in hers, and smiled upon ine in a way that was very pleasant to a man who had seen but few women's faces for a long lime. And the pleasautest part was It was my lost Faith's face, the face of tho woman I had given upas dead. There waB something so restful in It that I felt a sweet, deep sleep stealing over me; presently I slept and dreamed of her. When I woke she was sitting by my bedside still. "Where have yon been all the long time sinee I lost you T" I asked her by-and-by. "fiarulng my bread, and trying to forget yon," sheanswered. "You see" in answer to my look of Inquiry "they made me be lieve you wero amusing yourself with me, and Miss Orayle was very angry with me, aud I would not stay. I know now that they deceived me. Let us forget all, since it's over. Shall we not f" "Yes, all but that I loved you," lan swered. "All but that I loved you then and love you now, and must have you tor my own fur all lime to come. I may have you Faith ? You will let me keep you henceforth in my life as I have kept your memory In my heart through the year sineuyou were lost lo me f" "If you want me," she said, Boftly, and I drew her sweet face down to me and kissed her to seal the compact that our hearts made then and thero the compact we have kept faithfully ever Bince, and will, please Ood, until the end. War Picture.. National Tribune Oen. W. T. Clark, formerly chief of Oen. Mcl'herson's staff and Adjutant Oeneral or the Army of the Tennessee, has connected himself with an enterprise conduoted by Mat Morgan, the noted artist, which has for au object the painting of a number of largo aud finely-executed pictures of battles tn the war of the rebellion. S.ifar fifteen nre under way and will be completed In September. These areoxtct representations of the, battles of Belmont, Donelsou, Sullob. Coiinth. the siege and surrender of Vicksbnrg, Gettys burg, Uhickamauga, Mission Ridge, Atlanta, Spottsylvania, "The Wilderness," and Ap pomattox. The paintings will be exhibited in every cily of the United States, with ac companying hlstorio lectures ot explanation. The actual fields of battle, with all the tacti cal and strategic situations, are faithfully portrayed from tho official reports and eye witnesses or eaoh engagement. Their size will be about 3rixS0, so that they will be sub stantially the same as the great oycioramas of Gettysburg, Shiloh, Manassas, etc., now attracting so much attention In various cities, but will be of higher character as works of art. Oen. Clark makes this request or tnose who participated in the battles mentioned: It la important In this enterprise, iu order to give the representations of character of personal Interest to our surviving comrades, nnd those who fondly cherish Hie memories of fallen heroes, that there Bhonld be as many as possible of the faces and forms of the gallant soldiers engaged iu the several conflicts who can be readily recognized. Ac cordingly, the artist has made this a feature iu all these scenes, and I have the honor now to request all my old comrades to send to me, at Mat Morgan's Art Rooms, Cincin nati, Ohio, their photograph, staling the regiment to which they belonged or the position Iu which they served lu any of the battles herein mentioned, that their por traits may appear in the painting. A photograph taken at date ot enlistment or hppolnlinent, or resignation or discharge, would be preferred, becauso we waut you to look as you did in the days that tried men's souls. The photograph will be re turned as booh as transferred to Hie canvas. The pictures are especially designed to In terest veterans and all members of the Oraud Army of the Repnblio, TlieOudln. Jeweler's Circular for March l'.HWtlve novelties that become popular abroad are sooner or later reproduce 1 here. A notable example just now attracting the attention of the trade, and made iu faithful copy of Hie 1'aris samples by a New York Arm, Is thu "oudja," an amulet of Kgyptlan origin dating back to the time of the Pharaohs. This unique charm, which was described some mouths ago lu the Circular, Is enjoying an extraordinary patronage iu both London and Paris. The secret of its success lies, perhaps, lu the old superstition that It is au emblem of good luck. The name "oudja" BlgulUes health and happiness, and, according to the legend handed down with It, every one who wears It will be atteuded with pros perity. The oudjas made lu Paris are copies of old Ugypllau amulets lu the Louvre and the Ilrltlsh Museum, aud, as has already been told, the oudjas produced here are copies of those made iu Paris, Kxainples seen at the manufacturer's nre effective little ornaments, measuring about three, fourths of an luch In length, half an Inch In width, aud thick enough to almlt of decora tion ou both sides. These oudjas represent the eye ot Horns, or rising sun, from which tears drop, In a gold framework of Kgyptlau design, These oudjas may be worn by either sex ou the watch chain, or by ladles ou their bracelets. A retail dealer up town, who was interviewed 119 tn the probable suc cess of the oudja In this country, expressed the opinion that Well made aud effectively finished, these charms are a unique and taking little ornament that ought to have a big run. An Imported oudja seen contained au almond shaped eye enameled iu colors true to nature, the teardrops being siiullated with small diamonds. Already there ap pears a disposition to employ the oudja as a parting gift, a sort ol Ion logtuje, a graceful way, iu fact, of saying, "Oooit-bye, and good hick uuuimyuii." TUe HrmiuuiiKfiii Article.

Underwood, of Hoston, now consul atfllasgow, has been tn London and writes his Impressions of "Faust" lo the lloston (laiittc; The play of "Faust," as represented by Irvlng's company at the Lyceum Theatre, London, though tollowlng Goethe's mystical drama with Rome fidelity, leaves an Impres sion entirely different. Faust Is Ooetlie's hero, while iu tho Lyceum play Mephl stophcles Is something mora than the hern : the omnipotent mover of every spring of ao Hon. Goethe's Faust Is n man of original lib as aud of strong personality; and after his rejuvonercenco hols victoriously con B ilentand aspiring. Ooetho'sMephlstopheles does not presume todo morn than offer his cun ning temptations, That subordinate posi tion apparently would not suit Mr. Irving, and accordingly, lu the play, the subtle fiend becomes thn Ood of every occasion, while all the human beings are his pawns aud playthings. It gives one a moral and physi cal shudder to see all wills stiildned, all feelings trodden down, all plans frustrated, all human power helpless, before tho grim and remorseless power of tho drama. That the play loses ly the subordinate place given to Faust ther-i can bo no doubt ; aud this impression is deepened by the fact that the actor who has what should be the leading role has not the physical ad vantages, nor, apparently, the intelleo'ual qualities which should give some splendor to his pitiful career as the soducer of Innocence. He seemed to me to lie a fair copy of a mild- mannered divinity student, whose virginal bosom was heaving for the first Hmo with a chaste and timid lovo. Snch a man, one feels, would not and could uot have been pushed by passion to the ruin of Margaret or to the slaying of Valentine, The Intonslty of feeling, the commanding Intelligence, and the headlong assurance of triumph were nil wanting. I raunot speak learnedly of the mounting ol the play, and will not venture to use the technical terms. I can only hint at the general Impression, and mention one or two striking features. The scenes, as mere pictures, were superb. The streets were real streets, with Ideas of solidity and per spective. The transformations were miracu lous, dazrling you without affording the slightest olue to tho means by which they were eiiecied. rue minor personages and the common people seemed to belong to the place nnd the time. It was Nnremborg iu the Middle Ages that we saw architecture, dress, nnd customs in harmony. And I never siw the manners of a crowd so repre sented. Kveryoue walked, or ran, or loi tered, nr looked, or talked in entire uucou-a-ru of the audience. It was a revelation to me, accustomed only to the Btlff processions aud painfully conscious ways of stage super numeraries at home. These living, moving crowds of people were not supernumeraries at all. They belonged there, a real part of the forces of the drama. The most exquisite effects wore shown in tho revelation of symbolic pictures on the wall of Faust's apartment. A wall would become luminous, and glow with finely painted figures, and then Blowly return to its iluky color. Once, while Margaret was kneeling outside the church, and while a beautiful light fell on the arches, buttresses, aud casements, the eoeue became obscure one could not sny how and then thn light rose to an inspiring radiance, iu which she was seen to h) in the church with Mephi stophelean!. ' f elbow, wlthouteitherhaving moved, and without the visible motion of any part of the canvas or fixtures. The meeting of the witches on the IJrockeu was a wonderful piece of iliablerlc. At first they aeemed lo be iu the midst of whirling sheets of snow, while the Master looked ou from an eminence. Afterward a deep crimson light began to pervade the scene an i bring ont thu sharp outlines of tho everlasting rocks. Soon the glare became bllndinc. lurid as from the eternal fires below, and all llio wnile mere resounded yells and screams. with studied dissonances, enough to freeze one 8 moon. Tho musiu behind the sceues was excellent, and uot obtrusive. The effects of tho church organ were admirable. It is useless to describe the acting of Ir lug. No wotds cau convey an idea or tho power which breathes in his words, and reveals itself iu his masterly notion. It is to me by far the most successful of his many parts. Eilmnutl Kran.

One of the gems of the early part of the seasou was the oue saying that Col, Oliver Payne had given his sister, Mrs. Whitney, a check for $500,000, with the Idea that the mouey was to be expended solely for the purpose of soolal enjoyment; of lourse Ihoro was never a word of truth In that, aud was naturally Inveuted by some nisn w ho had no money. It takes a real poor mau to conceive these atorles of dazzling generosity, Mr. Whitney has entertained very liberally. He has spent more money than auy Cabinet olUcer of modern times, but those who are good judges say that $10,000 will meet Hie ex penses nt his social season, As Senator (leorge II, Pendleton used to expend $75,000 a yeai upon mere living and enterlnlulng, the re has heeu some piciedent here for the Whitney liberality.
