Uriel yr ‘Agnes Tracy's Mistake. It was one of the loveliest Sep- tember days. A soft, dreamy haze was over the hills and sloping valleys and the bright waters of the Chesa- peake gleamed and flashed in the afternoon sunlight like molton silver. But it was the lovely face of Agnes Tracy that I was watching, not the beautiful panorama which glided past us as the steamboat moved majestic- ally on her way, farther and farther from the scene of my summer's holi- day. I was in love with Agnes Tracy, hopelessly, as I believed—for it was said that she had been engaged to Hugh{Morton for months, and his attention to her during the past summer and the kindness with which she smiled on him, seemed to warrant the truth of the report.

She averted her face from his gaze, and, as she did so, her eyes caught mine.

That night of the storm was such an era to mes Miss Agness.” Something of the passion which filled my heart on that night when I had dared for a moment to hold Agnes in my arms, came to me now, and must have found expression in my voice, for her dark eyes drooped beneath my gaze and a warm flush mounted to her forehead. She made no reply, and Hugh Morton led her to the other end of the boat. Again Nora’s little bird-like voice broke in on my disturbed thoughts. “What a fearful night that must have been! And yet Agnes told me, when she got back, all drenched and shivering as she was, that she had never been so happy in her life as out inthat awful storm. But then Agnes is so brave and loves things which frighten and appall me.” My heart gave a great bound of joy. Did she. then, love me? The though’, was joy unutterable, but I dared not breathe it. I lingered with Nora for over an hour, listening to her sweet, child- like prattle, and striving in vain to repress the feelings of triumph that | swelled my heart when her innocent confession of her sister’s words came across me. The sun sank, like a great ball of fire, in the western sky, and the bright stars peeped out, one by one, aud were reflected in the shining | waters beneath, in throbbing, quiver- ing brightness. The rest of the party were on the other end of the beat, enjoying the full beauty of the moonlight, and I was standing, leaning over the rail- ing, in the shadow of the pilot house, when a soft, hesitating step caused me to turn. The dark eyes of Agnes Tracy met my eager glance, and, in the surprise and delight of the unexpected meet- ing, I caught and held her handsin a close embrace. “Miss Tracy! Agnes!—” I began. But her soft voice interrupted me: “Nay, let me tell you first that you are unjust, unkind to accuse me of coquetry. I never knew till to-night that you loved me.

C., July 18.—The President to-day vetoed four pri- vate pension bills. The first grant- ed a pension to the widow of John Herdst, who enlisted in 1862. In August, 1864, he was captured by the enemy. After his capture he joined the confederate forces and was recaptured by the Union army and told them that he deserted to the enemy to escape the hardships of prison life, and was released and mustered out on October 11, 1865. The disability for which his widow now asks for a pension, the Presi- dent says was qnite likely the result of exposure in the confederate army and adds: “The greatest possible sym- pathy and consideration are due to those who bravely fought, and being captured, as bravely languished in rebel prisons. But I willtake no part in putting a name upon our pension roll which presents a Union soldier found fighting against the cause he swore he would upheld; nor should it be fora moment admitted that such treachery is excused when it avoids the rigors of honorable cap- ture and confinement. It would have been a sad condition of affairs if every captured Union soldier had deemed himself justified in fighting against his government rather than to undergo the privations of capture. Two of the other bills vetoed granted pensions to Woodford M. Hopkins and Thomas Shannon. In these cases the President finds that the death of the beneficiaries had no connection with their military service. In the fourth case the bill granting an increase of pension to John F. Ballier limits any increase to the rate fixed by law for total disability which rate the pension now receives. ing happiness.” She drew a little crumpled note from her bosom. “Is not this from you? these your initials?” Certainly the hastily-written, half- illegible letters looked like H. H., but acloser examination showed they were intended for H. M. Hugh Morton had written the note which she had supposed was from me, and a happy chance had done the rest. This was two years ago. Agnes has been my wife for eighteen months and little Nora is now Hugh Morton's promised bride. He seems very happy of her confiding love, and I Are not am very sure that she knows nothing of the mistake which changed four lives so completely, and crowned me with a happiness that must last as long as life.

Creal Springs, IL, July 18.—Sev- eral hundred voters assembled in the Spring park of this place this even- ing to listen to an address upon the political issues of the day by Capt. Joe Hartwell, of Marion, Ill., a one- armed soldier who is now serving a8 member of the state board of equal- ization, elected upon the republican ticket, and who this evening for the first time renounced his allegiance to that party and pledged his support to Cleveland, Thurman and reform. Capt. Hartwell spoke for nearly two hours, and during the course of his remarks paid his respects to the state house ring at Springfield, ex- posed their corrupt methods and de- nounced them in the strongest terms. He dwelt at lenght upon the tariff question, and handled his sub- ject in a manner highly gratifying to his democratic hearers, showing com- clusively that the system proposed by the Chicago platform was dan- gerous to the best interest of the great masses of the people. He closed his remarks with an earzest appeal to his old soldier comrades to forsake the party for which they have been made cat's-paws, and come with him into the democratic fold. At the close of hisremarks he was heartily cheered. Hon. John G. Prather, National Democratic Committeeman for Mis- souri, ina personal letter to one of the proprietors of his paper, says; “J have just returned from a meet- ing of the National Committee. The organization is a most excellent one, and I feel that success is certain.
