Mr. Lavender, in the meanwhile, after ar- riving safely at Mile End, had caused himself to be driven back to the West. Then he bought a hat, and proceeded to carry out # resolution which he had formed during his travels in the Hansom. He went straight to to the residence of Signor Cavallini. : “Old Flathers may bully me,’ he said to himself, “‘ but I’m hanged if I stand any non- sense from that Italian. He shall marry her or he shall fight me—no. on second thought, he shan’t marry her, and he sha// fight. “Is Signor Cavallini at home ?’’ “No, sir.’? “Where is he?” “Gone to Newmarket, sir.” “Then I must go after him. What's his ad- dress there ?"’ Pro. ” Mr. Lavender was silent. “Stormy” was written on the captain's face as plainly as on a barometer, and there was no knowing at what moment the tempest might not break out. “Why not?’’ thundered the gallant veteran. Then, somewhat relieved by his shout. he took | ; ee aoe ae eee the eer Sky by the arm and led him down a (eae Signor Cavallini's mother?” —_— without a word being spoken on either No; I mean his wife.

He do, indeed, and Miss Juliana is fainted away, and it’s a bad job, sir.”” The man from sheer good nature, would not admit Mr. Lavender into what he believed a lion's den. Six times he returned to the charge. and at Tast he found Captain Flathers at home. In an instant he had rashed upstairs into the drawing-room, and shouted at the top of his voice :— “Cavallini’s married! Cavallini’s married '” Do not affect madness !’’ said the captain, as he arose from his chair. ‘Nothing can save you now from the punnishment you so richly deserve.” “But he is' Cavallini’s married. His wife came over yesterday from Italy!” ** Pitiful impostor '’’ continued the captain ~ But wait till I have bolted the door. No, stop. Juliana and Mics Smithers, you had bet- ter leave me and Mr. Lavender together for a few minutes. I have to talk to him.” Miss Smithers rose, but it was to hurry to the assistance of Juliana, who was fainting. «Oh, come, this won't do,”’ said Mr. Laven- der to the captain, with some show of defiance. ** What I say is true, and if you don’t under- stand it, I see that your daughter does.”” ‘Miss Smithers, what's meaning of all this ?”’ said the eaptain, as soon as his daughter had recovered. Miss Smithers took the mystified parent on one side and explained everything. *: Now, leave them alone,’ she added, when his wrath was somewhat appeased, «d all will yot come right.” - We are glad to say Miss Smither’s prophecy was fulfilled. The only obstacle to the mar- riage now was the — contempt still enter- tained by Miss Flathers for her devoted ad- mirer—for that he was devoted to her there could be no sort of doubt. But she readily pitied him for what he hed undergone for her suke, and saw great merit in his refusing to marry her against her will. Besides sincere affection in all cases meets with some sort of return. There may be hosts of pretty girls who are pestered by vain and ridiculous admirers ; but, as a general rule. they like to be loved. After the marriage, Juliana had several rea- sons for being pleased with her husband ; in the first plaewyhe let her do exactly as she liked—a most agreeable privilege, as those who have exercised it will readily allow. MORAL. Every true story has a moral, if yon can but find it out. The one which the reader is ag, posel to have just perused haseven two. It teaches that a man of honor will vores out of window rather than marry a young lady against her will; but if there afterwards appears to be any chance of her changing her mind, he will come in again through the door. — iD In New York, the German Socialists on Sunday afternoou held a meeting, and appointed a Committee to form a Public School Society, and getup aschool for the instruction of their chil- dren in the German language and Socialistic phil- anthropic doctrines. The meeting was largely at- tended, and quitea number of shares in the Society were taken at $1 each. 1197 In Philadelphia, on Thursday night, a man take it inte the hall.”’ Mr. Lavender was now once more as quiet as alamb. He resigned bis hat into the hands of his tormentor, without a murmur. The captain went up stairs into his own pri- vate room, put Lavender’s hat on the table, came out again. and locked the door. ‘There is no chance of bolting now,’ he said to him- welf as he took the key out of the lock, and put it in his pocket. In the meanwhile poor Lavender was pacing to and fro, in the front parlor, like a wild beast in a eage. “It’s no use talking to him any more,” thought Flathers, as he paused ontside the door «-It will be all over soon, and then he'll be quiet He's an inferual young humbug, too. with all his good nature ; to want mie fast and loose with me’ And thenthere'sJuliana' By Jove, she couldn't go on worse if I had ordered her to marry an Ojibbeway Indian. And yet she doesn’t care for any une else. Why, i never saw any one pay her the least attention except an Italian fellow, a sort of sporting baritone. that she picked up at some ball—and she couldn't have cared for Aim '’ Then Captain Flathers went into the draw- ing-room to see whether his daughter had come down from her room, but not until he had taken the precaution ef locking Mr. Lavender into the parlor. Miss Flathers did not appear at all inclined to enter into conversation with her papa. She looked at him at e as if she was about to say something particularly se- vere, but finding his eye fixed steadily upon her, changed her mind. The carriages were now at the door. ‘I had better take her down at once,’’”, thought the father. + The sooner it’s all over the better.” Mr. Lavender had also heard the carriages drive up, and had trembled at the sound. ~ If it were not too late,” he said to himself; but he felt that his head was already in the halter. ““Why that terrible man bas even taken my hat.’’ he continued. ‘But in any ease it would be impossible to escape now. Yet it can’t be pleasant to be married to a woman who hates you, and who tells yous; and it isn’t fair to marry her either! No! I'll be hanged if itis, and I won't doit! No! not for all the captains in the world! But I can’t walk coolly out of the house. They'll see me, and stop me; and then I should have to run for it; and a man running away without his hat locks very mach like a thief. Besides, the deer is lucked! Good heavens! the door is locked !"’ and Mr. Lavender turned and shook the handle, butin vain! At that moment the terrified bridegroom observed that one of the windows were open. “Yes—I might jump out of the window,” he reflected. “It would be better than escaping up the chimney; and one way or other I must get out of this house Fortunately there are no area. ings, but if there were, and each rail were a bayonet, 1 would risk the leap.” Mr. Lavender stood for a second on the win- dow-sill, and then, with the agility of a leopard, sprang into the street, and at the same time kicking over a flower-pot. The boys, of whom there was, of course, a large collection outside the street door, cheered the enterprising jum- per as he fell on all fours, but he was up again in & moment, and went bounding down the street like @ young stag, until he met a cab, jumped in, and told the cabman to drive to Mile End. ~-Confound those boys!” Fiathers, as he walked gently down stairs to unlock the parlor door, au operation which he succeeded in effecting without the slightest muttered Captain moles.

Have you seen Lavender?’ ** Not lately."’ ~- Is he anywhere up stairs?" + No. 10" In St. Louis, last week, Teresa Busner, a Swiss girl seventeen years of age, murdered her newly born infant by cutting its throat. She stated that she had been seduced by a ball-room partner while living in Chicago. and that her seduce: hed recently died. She was committed to prison. ~ Are you certain ?”’ “ Positive. ‘Ita very strange.” said the captain. ‘I left ‘Bim in the parlor, and now he’s not there.” * Perhaps he's gone out for a walk,”’ sug- geeted Mies Smithers * [tis searcely probable,’ replied the cap- tain; ‘especially as [ had his hat up stairs, and be was locked in.”’ ? * Locked in!” ejaculated the bridesmaid. *- Yes, locked in,” said the captain calmly; “ I thought it safer.’ -- He must be hiding somewhere,’’ observed ies Smithers.

The magistrate re- fused to perform the ceremony until the lady had doffed the pants and donned tne crinoline. 07 Miss J. M.
