L—_~ AND MRS. rP—., In the city of Baltimore lives a lady named —No, we will keep back the real name from ublication, and give only an assumed initial, calling her Mrs. D —. Mra. D—— is the wife of a gentleman en- gaged in mercantile pursuits. He is neither rich nor socially ambitious; though by care- fulness and attention to business, e bas accu- mutated some property, and lives in good style for a man of hjs mea ns. Mrs. D—— is very much un in some respect*. Social ambition is one of ber weaknesses. In marrying Mr. D—, whose father had been a mechanic, she felt that she wes letting herself down; but asa pany scion of an old aristocratic family that was decsying for lack of both moral and intel- Jectual toree. she wisely accepted the chance ef being ingrafted on a more vigorous stock, even though, in her estimation, the vere inferior. Of this, however, a fair differ- exce of opinion may exist. By birth and edagation Mrs. D— sonsid- ered herself 9 “indy.”’ That is @ person. of supertor quality—made of finer stuf—than I do not nines & quick-bloodedj race, but the blool once heated cools slowly. When we selec hands to the plow, we never look ack.’* The officer and the sitieens walked. convers- ing, for half an hour, when, being in the east- ern part of the city, they took a car and rode up Baltimore Street. “In passing Calvert Street the officer bought an extra from a news- boy, and was opening it, when the lady who swept so haughtily around him not long before entered the car with ber friend. Seeing the officer, Mrs. D—— gave a short, contemptuous “OQ! and sat down just opposite. From her sneering face the officer dropped his eyes quietly to the paper he had just opened, and began reading. Mrs. D—— at once began tal ng algnd tc her friend, and using the it ofchzive remarks touching the soldiers a le of the States from: which they had come. This she continued, the rent un- conzciousness of the officer increased her irrita- tion, and caused her to almost exhaust the vocabulaty of low invective. Asif he were not present, the officer readon.

Mra. D—-— arose, and to her shame be tt said, 80 far lost all sense of deficiency and self-respect as to spit in the officer’s face. Looking up with flashing eyes, and red spots burning on his cheeke, the officer, said, as he drew bis handkerchief and wiped the venom from his face, speaking with suppressed anger— “You are no lady! If you were aman, you would not leave this car alive!” An hour later, as Mr. D—— sat in his count- ing-room, a gentleman, with whom he was partially acquainted, came in. There was in the face of the latter an expression that sent a troubled wave across the feelings of Mr. D-——. It yas threatening and mysterious. He arose, bowing with some distance and formality. “Icome, Mr. D——,” said tp gentleman, ‘on very unpleasant business. An officer in the United States service has received a pub- lie insult at the hands a jd wife, for which he has determined to hold you responsible.’’ A sudden paleness overspread the face of Mr. D——. “My wife insulted an officer!’’ he exclaimed, in.2 tone of surprise. ‘How? when‘ where?” “Ske spat in his face.” “Tm possible !’’ “T saw it.” “Then he must have grossly insulted her.” “On the contrary, he neither spoke nor look- ed at her.” “Where was it?” “Tn one of the city cars. He sat reading, aud she, in company with a female friend sat oppostte. In conversing aloud they applied to soldiers the most offensive language, but he never even glanced toward them. Finally they srose to leave the car, when Mrs. D—— bext “orward and spit in his face. I saw it dows snd there can be no mistake. The offi- cer 4 Captain L—, of Massachveetts, n- tleman of wealth, high social position, and he Toward ail persons who ranked in the same grado with her husband, Mrs. D— assumed an air of dignified superiority that offended some and imposed upon others. Assumption always carries weight with a olass. Her pover- ty before marriege—fer thé family had abo exhausted itself by extravagance, dissipation and want of thrift—had separated her from many early friends; and her marrings with a eon of @ mechanic, though a strong, trae, and rising man, had caused cthere to drop an ac- watutance which had not for some time been jocked upon as desirable. Por some time after her marriage, Mrs. —, whose husband could not afford display in living, found it hard work to maintain her standing with any portion of the proud exclu- sives with whom it was her ambition to asso- ciate. Still she was ever at the gate, gliding ia upon all eecasions and holding a place by intrusion {f not under acknowledged right. By flattery she kept in favor with some, and turough them drew to the side of others, whose rey ellant coldness would have held a sensitive sur. truly independent mind far in the dis- tance. Sueh was Mrs. D——. As hor husband’s mitaus increased, she pressed him closely fora more liberal dispensation thereof at home. To which he yielded, even teyond his own judg- iment; but never to an extent that touched his f Ske dressed extravagantly; but ho safety saw that her bills did not exceed a certain sum that could be afforded. Gradually, through elogance of attire and assumed im. ce, Mrs. D—— widened her sphere among the exclusives, and, in a corresponding degree, drew of from certain excellent people, held as ‘aferior, who had rather tolerated than re her society hus it stands with Mrs. sent writin; D-—— at the pre- g.

Unprovoked insults were of- fered to soldiers and officers in the street by theze women, who even spat upon them in many instances; thus showing the depraved quality of their minds. Foremost in the prac- tice at thes indignities was Mrs. D——, who was encouraged by the class among whom she visited. One day, fired by the almost insane malice of half a dozen free-thinking women, with whom she had been in conference, Mrs. D——, in company with a friend, started forth to en- joy the pain of soldiers and officers subjected to wanton insults, which, because offered by women, they could not resent. Passing a sol- dier, Mrs. D— pu: ly dropped her lace- bordered handkerebief. The soldier, underan iwpulse of politeness—at home he moved in © as good, and certainly in a more oulti- jociety than the lady—stepping forward, ead lifting the hankerchief from the pave- ment, ofiered it to Mrs. D——. There was an instant flash of contempt on her face, and @ Strong upward curl of the lip. She drew her- self back for a moment, lie one in — at a rudeness, then tal the handkerchief be- tween the tips of her thumb and finger, she held it far from her, like something infected, sod, moving to the curb-stone, dropped it in the muddy gutter. Not deigning to glance back at the soldier, she swept away air of oon hautear that to her rd i worthy of & princess. A jeering laugh from some vulgar fellows added to the soldier's mo- ing of discomfiture. Proud of her shame, Mrs. D —- swept down the street. In the next block she encounter- ed an officer.

D—— swerved from the right line of her course, and avoided by taking & quick circle, that FP Up 4, a merchant’ ow. a “One of your vile women, remarked the officer to a whom he was walking. “No, she is the wife of chant,’’ was the reply—‘‘a Mrs. D——.”” “Bormerly rvant maid, or the lowest class, judgiog from her manners.”’ “No; Mrs. D—— is from one families.’’ Pine save the oc ys lor oficer. “If she represents the best, of w style and quality must the worst be?

Will they never cease laying the fool?” 43 The siiead of Capt. L—— sat down and wrote a very peremptory demand for satisfac- tion, closing with the sentence, “it must be prompt, full and camplete, or you will be held to the last resort.’’ In less than thirty minutes from that time, Mr. D—— stood, pale, angry and agitated be- fore his wife. “At last,” said he, passionately ‘you have completed your evil work. Warning and re- monstrance have been of no avail. Had you no decency, no self-respect? What fiend pos- sessed you?” The colorgwent out of Mrs. D——’s face. Fear and aftrm overshadowed it. Never in her life had seen her husband so moved. Never had she felt such awe of him. Usually so calm, his violence now almost appalled her, and she felt weak and vaguely guilty before “What do you mean?’ she asked. “You spat in a gentleman’s face to-day.” The crimson of shame crept over her coun- eeDiog i If and husband in “Disgraci ourself and your husban the very ot, Bp and now my life’s blood must be the penalty.
