A BLACKSMITH'S LOVING.
1 had resolved,, wtfh many persons 110
doubt who linil shnkon off Its yellow
dust, never to visit the dismal little town
of lHoomsbury again. It wns so cnllcil,
perhaps, because of Its utter lnck of
vegetation, nnd because of Its being 11
Sahara of red clay roails anil snnily
plains, over which sickly shrubs nml
vines strovo nml knotted together. I
had left It In July, with n dull, hot sun
cracking and seaming the dry marsh,
leading to the town, and felt as If spared
the commission of a crime bv tho sud
den telegram which recalled mo to the
citv. I whipped my horso into a mad
gallop, and looklng'iicithcr to tho right
nor left, nnlmtitcu by it vauuo wonder
ns to how any 0110 existed there.
Again It was July, and by a singular
chain of circumstances I found mvself
rambling leisurely on horsebaek clown
tho dusty high street of' Hloomsbury.
Tho samo" red sun was blistering thu
paint on tho llttlo new post-olllce, and
the samo brawny blacksmith wiped tho
sweat from his brow before his forgo,
and stopped work to stare at me in n
vacant way.
I had passed some Idlo hours in his
shop before, and after u stolid scrutiny
ho iccognlzcd me.
"Hack ngain, squire?" he asked, giv
ing mo a familiar nod. "It bo 11 matter
-of threo years now since I shod your
gray marc in tho off hind foot."
I fa was evidently proud of this piece
of memory.
"Fully that," I said again, wondering
how lie had endured all these days and
nights in this (5od forsaken snot. Ho
raised his muscular arm, ana witli a
blaokened linger pointed to tho tiny
cables of a homo near by.
"I bo married since. I've got a boy
up there, an' he'll bo a smithy! reckon,
though his mother is inclined to the
trade of shoe-strings, tapes nml tho like.
I hato It, I do. Them be all white
skinned, creamy fellows, witli no grit in
'cm."
I had never deemed It a possibility
that there could bo marrying or giving
in marriago hero. In this respect
Bloomsbury resembled heaven In my
sncrellgious mind. Perhaps tho "old,
old story" of love had mado It a para
dise to tho young blacksmith.
I gavo my horso a brief rest and a
drink from the good fellow's trough, as
1 inquired tho current news of tho town,
though, tho Lord knows, nothing could
be further from my thoughts than to
caro what news there was. I bad seen
but once, for a moment, a faco which
oven faintly interested mo in that horri
ble place, and try as hard as I could, I
could never drivo away that vision.
I had strolled into tho llttlo yellow
church ono sultry day to cseapo tho
thunder-storm which was rapidly com
ing up from tho west, and stepped into
tho porch just as tho first heavy drops
pattered on tbo roof, and on tho bleach
ed grass about tho tumbled down head
atones In tho yard.
It was indeed a lovely faco which ap
peared as a palo star in tho organ-loft,
Jimong common-place, tawny-featured
faces, with black and brown ringlets,
streaming around them. Sho did not
blush or return my gaze coyly, as young
girls are wont to do in country places,
but looked over and boyond mo in a piti
ful, vacant, meaningless wqv. J, don't
K no?. ..iiwwiui oiiu wore pink or blue, or
lavender. It was a c"loud y, filmy sort of
uress, nurairamy suited to ner largo gray
eyes nnu rings 01 yenow nnir. nor Don
net wns a sweet llttlo tiling, tied up with
white ribbon. Her chin wns like nln
bastcr, her cheek was. scarcely less
pale.
I lingered In tho church porch after
tho congregation had trooped out and
tho sexton Tiad shuttled un tho cloomv
llttlo cditlcc. I had stupidly missed her
in tho throng, or sho had gono out at
tho choir entrance. I hadfonroltcn tho
incident directly, and remembered it
now only as young Jansen, tho brawny
Norwegian, spoko of his wife ami
babv.
"There was rather a pretty vounff la
dy thcro three years ago," I said, biting
ji un, 01 raw straw, nnu looking over
tho pollard window at tho church
steeple. "A palo, white girl, in a straw
bonnet."
An indcscribablu Hush mouutod to his
awnrth cheek and stained his brow. Ho
dronncd tho hammer witli a sharn idnnir.
una lot his iron cool while ho looked at
mo threateningly for an Instant. The
tigerish green faded from his eyes and
icu a 111111, reu giaro.
"Sho was considered handsome then,
1 Know wno you mean."
"I hopo sho is pretty still. That was
a faco I thought a man might sco over
his tea urn every day for ti lifetime and
not tiro."
. "Do you think so, verily?" said Jan
sen, sending up a shower of sparks. "It
bo all owing to how tho faco look at
you. If it bo with dead, cold eyes, and
icy Hps why man, death itself at times
could net match It. It was a sweet face
to hang in a locket."
With grcatsimpllcity ho had expressed
inv thought.
"Now; your wife," I said In a banter
ing way; "l uaro say slio Is a smart cirl
given to teasing you, and coming to
meet you with your son on her buck,
and then you threo romp away homo
again."
A sigh of anguish burst from tho
honest fellow's bosom, and for tho first
timo it dawned on mo that in somo way
I was blunderingly torturing him. I
began to talk ot other things, and
strolled away with my bridlo on my urm
uiiui i rcucneu 11 nuio gniiystone-yanl,
where a gritty fellow with dusty eye
junwuo unuu iu BllljJ ill ii worK 01 milK
ing grave-stones. Ho wns at It still
evolvinc a Roman-nosed amrel In i
smock frock from a block of irranito,
Ho was. by all odds tho merriest follow
in JJloomsiniry, ami tlio gossip of the
county.
Ho bad many thlnirs to toll relntlvx
to his ti ado, nnd many Inquiries to raako
relative to tho rascals It was my business
to hunt down. Ho declared himself
very sorry that circumstances had mado
n stone-breaker of ono whom fato clearly
meant for a detective. Ho had a pair of
pinkish eyes, deeply set under snaggy
brows, and faco brim full of duplicity
and conceit. Ho could climb like a cat,
lio told mo, and could scalo a linohod
wall like a lizard.
Presently be said that ho had seen mo
tBlk to a man for whom ho had a great
contempt mo oiaoKsmiui. This was
vory droll. I foresaw that tho stono
brcaker must havo nt somo timo Injured
Al. XT t
uiu nurwugiuii. ,
Ho told mo at great length a long
scandal in which Jnnsoii hail mixed
himself up. Ho had married n half
idiot girl and fathered hor child, whoso
father no ono had over scon or heard of,
and carried around with him a ponder
ous threat to kill any man, woman or
child who should speak lightly of hU
wife.
"All that I say makes him a great ns
this blaekf mitli tho more so because
ho Is a poor man and keeps hN idiot
llko a ladv, with white ringed lingers
nnd in stuff gowns instead of liusey;
nnd, bless you, hn has given up all his
ways, dropped nil pipes and drinks at
tho public houso for tho sako of a wench
who utters nothing but sighs. This
Norwegian of yours Is n prlmo calf,
Mr. Detective."
This Norwegian was a lord, a demi
god, a philosopher, n humanitarian,
whoi! bulk overshadowed puny men,
such ns tho gravc-stono maker and I,
as a great tree would overtoil a sumac.
Now I could understand all tho mean
llttlo daggers I had driven into his
heart a while ngo tills great, splendid
fellow, who wore his heart in his sleevo
for jackdaws to pick at. Hit by bit dur
ng tlio next two days I gathered tho
whole sad history of his marriage.
There had been no courtship at all.
Tim poor girl's people hud cast her off,
being puritans who woro gray gowns
and slept iu night-enps. She had not
a friend in the world, and was in a sore
strait, being in urgent need of women
friends and medicine. Ugel Jnnscn
went to her with tlio smoko nnd grime
of tlio forgo on his fneo nnd hands, nnd
spoko very feelingly and simply to her.
She went with him to thu minister, and
Ugcl's sister, with much horror, but
wholesome fear of Jansen, took ehargo
until nil was over. Dally and hourly
Ugel watched by her, asking nothing
in return, nnd by and by ho gavo tho
baby whom all hntsd to sco his big
brown lingers to hold, and the llttlo
fellow slept in peace
All this mndo Ugel tlio sport of the
vidngo nnd furnlsned the town an ovcr
llvcly scandal, but It was talked of In a
smothered way. Jnnscn had tlio strength
of an ox, and kept It wholly to lavish
on one man when lie could lind him. I
conceived the notion to help him in tills
project.
My mare understood her business well
enough about this timo to east n slice.
Jnnscn wns not nt the forge, tho shop
was closed, and I was directed to his
house, a retired llttlo spot, with a cluster
of clovo pinks in n tiny plot in front.
Tlio poor wife's baby wns ill dying
witli a bunch of clovo pinks on his
jilllow nnd Janscn's linger fastened in
Ids cold little list. Mrs. Jnnscn snt still
aud gazed vacantly at Ug61, while ho
shivered as with an ngue. Perhaps ho
had prayed to God to take back that
child. Ho had done nobly by It, though,
and now ho wns even sorry.
It wns tho samo palo fneo of the or
gan loft, surrounded by a tangled mass
of curls of raro dead gold hue, and the
sight of her gavo mo a pang. Jansen
unlocked tho littlo hand and scattered
tho pinks recklessly. Then lie bent over
his wifo and said soothingly: "Como
out Into tho nlr, Adelaide Jano will
take care of tho body ho will bo nil
right now."
she got up mechanically and they met
me at tho door. Tho sight of mo had
a strange effect. Sho began to remem
ber days beforo her sorrow. Sho put
her hand to her henrt, and with a great
cry fell at Jansen's feet. Afterward sho
was sano and begged of him to let her
go away at onco forever. Sho thought
ho must loathe her. Ho held her flut
tering llttlo hand to his Hps whilo a big
icar icu on meir wcuuingnng.
"You'vo had a rrreat black wronn,
lass; when I've righted that vou mav
o. if you wish. Until then I nm your
rother neither higher nor better. I
am you liavo mo bound body, android.'
Hocamo nwnv witli mo. and in iim
shop no began to whet up a hugo knife.
"The poorlittlo wretch bo gono now,"
dnnscn referred to that other man's
child. Ho smiled In ugly way at tho
uroau, keen liludo of tho knife, nnd
passed his lingers down It caressingly.
"Long ago." ho said, speaking witli
a bitter tasto In his mouth, "Adclado
nnu spoils oi sleep she could not
awake. Sho slept in n littlo place In tho
turret of her father's houso. Ho was
tno curate liore. Ho is a damned devil
though." Jansen began at the knlfo
again.
"homo ono scaled tho wall. I must
lind that man. Then I will rcstoro her
her good namo and I will leave this
place there is a curso of tho earth

"I will hell) vou." I said slmnlv

KNOLAND.
A London dispatch of August 4th,
says! The House laid the first amendment to
the Land Bill providing for exclusion from
operation of tho bill parts of estates managed
on thoF.ngllsh system, which wns adopted with
out division. Tho amendment stood In tho namo
ot tho Dnko of Argyle, liberal, ns did also a
further amendment, cnrrled by 219 to 07, thus
giving tho landlord tho right to compromise In
ensoofsale, tho holding of which ho finally
brought up In the tenant right. In the criminal
court, Patrick Talford Hlcklo wns found guilty
of threatening to kill the Secretary for Ireland,
Forstcr, unless bo released tbo Irish prlsonca
and resigned office. The vcrdlqt was accom
panied with a recommendation of mcrcyi
Counsel for tho crown said Forester desired
tho lightest sentence consistent with Justlco
bo passed upon tho prisoner. Scntcnco was post
poned. The Freeman's Journal, of Dublin,
thinks Forstcr' will resign as soon as the Land
Bit receives royal assent.
In the Houso of Commons, Aug; 4th.,
Ilarcourt, home secretary, read a dispatch from
United States Minister Lowell, informing Earl
Granville he had wired Secretary Blalue July
Kith nn account of tho conversation ho had
with Tenderdcn, Under Foreign Secretary,
respecting tho Infernal machines at Liverpool,
to which he had received a reply from Blalnol
Bulling mai ino national, etato nnu municipal
authorities nre strenuously endeavoring to ills;
cover tho authors of the plot, in which ho has
reason to bellcvo very few wcro engaged, nnd
that no pains will bo' spared In discovering nnd
prosecuting them.
In tho Houso of Commons, August8th,
Forster stntcd that Dillon was released because
a report wns received that further confinement
would endanger his life. This report was con
firmed upon Investigation by other physicians.
Henry Lnbouchcrc, (liberal) asked what were
the. government's Intentions regarding Brad
laugh. Gladstone replied that the Government
understood that the resolutions preventing
Bradlaugh from taking the oath expired with,
tho present session, and consequently Bmdlaugh
couM picsent himself next session and have the
oath administered to him, meanwhile the Gov
ernment would consider tlio matter. Labouchcro
then announced that ho would not proceed with
the resolution ennbllng Bradlaugh to take the
oath In spite of the resolution against him.
Thcro is undoubtedly a disposition on
tho part of the government to drop tho powers
derived under tlio coercion net ot passible. It is
stated that the deanery of Westminister has
been offered to Kev. nenry Moutague; of Butler,
headmaster of Harrow School, who will prolmli
ly accept. In compllanco with the urgent request
of Pamcll, many home rule members of Parlia
ment returned to. London to bo present when
amendments in the House of Lords to the Land
Bill arc considered.
Tho Houso of Commons, Aug. 10th,
dlscumea and acted upon the amendments of
tho House of Lords to tho Land Bill, nnd gen
erally rejected them.

Minister Foster writes to tho Depart
ment of State, under date of July 18th, 18S1
that the Russian wheit crop Is likely to bo one
of the largest ever raUcd In tho Empire, and
that the export promises to lio much greater
than usual. From Moscow, wljlch Is the great
commercial center, It Is reported that nil
brandies of business nre beginning1 to revive
and flourish after a long season of depression,
solely on account of tbo preepect of an abund
ant harvest. It will not bo without practical
political influence also, for much discontent In
the Interior has resulted from hard times nnd
short crops.

I.onki on the I'Hrm.
How many timos as you arc driving
through tho country you seo a nice now
mower or plow left in tho Held exposed
to thoiweathcr from ono year's end to
tlio other, and, in fact, over ono half of
of one's valuable- tools left exposed to
tlio inclemency of tho wenther, when
for a mero nominal sum you could
build a shelter for them. Tho result of
all this Is that it will cost you moro for
repairs In a few years than you could
buy i a now implement for.
Another and very Important point to
bo noticed is tho proper cultivation of
yot;r crops. A) great many havo tho
much mistaken idea that tho least
amount of labor bestowed upon a crop
tho better, but aliovo all thoroughly
prepare your hind beforo planting, and
as soon as weeds begin to start co over
your crop with a smoothing harrow, as
this will exterminate tho first crop of
weeds. If you keep tho weeds down at
first you will have very little dllllculty
i lug thu season, for it is much easier
hoe than to harvost a crop that is half
W;ceds ' . ' ' M
SHU another very essential point Is
to tako1 proper caro of whatypu have.
It is much bolter to plant ono aero" and
tun iuko caro or it ttian to plant twp
ncros nnd leave it to tho merov of tho
weeds, for you will derive moro benefit
from tito ucro well oared for than from
tlio two uorcs half taken caro of. and
you will havo only half tho amount of
space to ciuuvato.
Another great loss is tho neglect to
tako proper earn of, your buildings.
How often you seo a houso or barn
wll hout n coat of paint. Tho paint not
only presorves tho building but pre
Tints Its decay. Many times you seo a
man driving along with his wagon jing
ling liko a threshing' mnohine, simply
for tho want of having a tiro set, or bo
cuuso a bolt is missing. Tho conse-
l ere
ooso, tho felloe split, and presently that
man will havo a bill of two or three
dollars to pay tho' whcolwright for re
pairs on tho wheel, when If tho matter
had been taken in season, tho black
smith would havo put him all right for
fifty cento.
