He could not move, even when he saw Jasper, coming rapidly towards him, and ao they were’ beside each ether in a moment. m3 i “William !”’ exclaimed sor in a confus- ed, half-tremulous voice, which yet had a ring of happiness ph anit. illiam, is this you? Are you in?” H “Not now, I am not well,” William had just strength en h to say. His brother twined hie arm around his waist in bo: fashion. “Come with me, then,” he said, “I have ‘ing to tall you. Perhaps you guess what it is » I think every one must know how well I love her.”’ There wag a fearfal poor Wil- liam’s breast, but he kept e, and did not thrust away the arm that encircled him. “And go,” “although I tinued J: wild and 69 little deserving of-a pure young heart like hers, I have somehow won it, and to-night she gave mo the sweet promise that she would be mine; and I am ing to lead a different life, Will, and study.

He had suffered, and he suffer in silence. He could not reproach either Caroline or Jasper. How should they guess his secret when he had not suspected theirs? And she would be happy, and his brother would be led to seek a purer and 2 holier life, and his mother would weep no longer for her youngest born, and none should ever know of the cross which had been laid upon him; and, at the last, the slumber under those white grave-stenes would be the more welcome, and. the chains which bound his heart te earth more easily broken. And then, as he thought of her in her pure besu:y, the man cast down the martyr, and sobbing forth—“But I thought she loved mo! Oh, my God! I thought she loved me!” he flang Limseit upon the floor, and laid there until the we-stones and the white anow were. the red sunrise, and the blessed morn of © dawned once more apa theworld. * ® © *% #& | Ji wasin the city and redeeming his Fra oy to the letter, and William had buried love and grief in his own breast r.

And so a whole long year Christmas time came pri agen per was home upon a visit. No one called him now, and he was fast attain- ing » place in his profession; and, as he wrote to Wilham, the secret would soon be a seeret no longer. There was another of those little white notes in the letter which brought those tidiogs, and William walked over with it to the Graaam’s homestead. Ashe entered the eld parlor he found Caroline sitting beside'the fire, and saw that her lashes 6 wet with tears. ‘Jasper will be here to-morrow,” he said, as he seated himself opposite to her; and he wondered that the words brought no joy- ous sparkle to her soft black eye, and that she answered in a listless manner, and sat still looking at the fire. Then, as he Yooked at her, he saw how thin she had grown, and marked the pallor of her fair young cheek, and read in her whole mien some: that told of sor- row crushed down by a strong will, but strag- gling yet for mastery. “Are you ill?” he asked, almost involunta- rilp. “You look so. I did not notice it at first, but you have altered very much.’’ She grew crimson. Her cheeks, her neck, and her — gs sateees in a moment, 37 she looked at with a strange ex; in 0} well,”’ she 1.

The —- minister arose. ‘‘Forgive me,”’ he said. ‘I presumed upon a friend’s privi- lege—for we were & year ago, Miss Graham, and shall be even better friends to- night than wo have ever been.”’ “A year ago!” a! she spoke against ago. . it is Christmas time again. I had almost for- gettea it.” Her cheek was whiter now than the snow without the door, and, startled by her wild glance and hollow voice, William Betsworth sprang forward just it time'to gave her from fa te the floor. Sexseless and white she lay, and he placed her ina great arm-chair and knelt besite her. Such agony us wrang his heart at that moment had never tortured it before—for in that one cry, in # pat ey Sears nape ones name, in an henged rcious clasping arms about his neck, he had read the truth.

It was gray twilight, but the outline of her form told him that it was Caroline, and the sight confirmed a reso- lution formed during those days of convales- ss © die would leave the country and ge a homeless, lonely man, seeking only the good of others, and weaving for himself no tender lies. He would die there, and be buried by savage hands, or lie uncared for on some des- ert epot until the wind had bleached his bones, and the beasts of the forest had made a dainty moal upon his flesh, but not for all the world woul@ he remain where he could daily meet the woman whom, in a few brief days, it would be guilty to love. As he turned from the window, with this thought at his heart, he saw Jasper etanding close beside him. His face was glowing with joy,and he clasped his brother about the waist, in his own boyish fashion “You are weli now, Will,”’ he said, softly, “and I may tall to you again, may I not? “I can’t hurt you now. ‘She will be my wife next Sunday, if'you are strong enough to marry us. And I have just told mother, and she is crying in her own room, ag women always wiil on such oceasions.

Jesper stared at him in amazement—‘You never thought 20?” he said. “How could I think otherwise?’ gatved William ‘Isaw you kiss her hand. You never told me otherwise.” » “I kissed her hand because she had been 80 kind to us, hopeful of our happiness, aud 60 trustfal of my good intentions,” said Jasper. “Ob, Will! Will!

William Botsworth married bis brother and golden-haired Effie on the following Sabbath, and it is very certain that he never went to India, cr to any other distant land, for if you were to visit that old parsonage to-day you would find him there, with a black-eyed wife, whose Christian ame is Caroline, and half-a- dozen children about his hospitable hearth.— Sunday Times. —___.2+ Exempt sy Morar Disaz.tity.—Judge Chu- Masero, of Mouroe county, stated scund sense and sabet-ntial views lathe following.

Pepe—Defeat o¢ the Kebels—One Thousand Priseners Fa- ken—Capture of Arms, &c. —— Manassas Junction, Va., Auz. 28, 10 P. M.— To Major General H. W. Haileck, General in Chief: As soon as | discovered that a large force of the enemy was turning our right toward Ma- nassas, and that the division I had ordered to take post there two days before had not yet ar- rived from Alexandria, I immediately broke up my camps at Warrenton Junction and Warren- ton and marched rapidly baek in three columis I directed Gen. McDowell, with his own and tien Sigel’s corps and Gen. Reno’s division, to Turch upon Gainesville bythe Warrenton and Alexandria pike, Reno and one division of Gen. Hetntzelman’s corps to march on Greenwich, and with Gen. Porter’s corps and Gen. Hooker’s division, { marched back to Manassas Junction. Gen McDowel was ordered to interpose between the forces of the enemy which had passed down to Manassas through Gainesville and his main body, moving down from White Plains through Thoroughfare Gap. This was completely ac- complished; Longstreet, who had passed through the Cap, being driven back to the west side The forces sent to Greenwich were designed to support Gen. McDowell in case he met too large a teren of the enemy. ‘The division of Gen. Hoeker, marching towards Manassas, came upon the enemy near Kettle Run in the afternoon of the 27th inst., and after a harp action routed them completely, killing and wounding 3:0, capturing their camps and bag- gage, and many stand of arms. This morning the command pushed. rapidly to Manassas Junction, which Jackson bad evacuated three hours in advance. He retreated by Centre- ville, and took the turnpike towards Warrenton. He was met six miles west of Centreville by Gens. McDowell and Sigel late this afternoon. A severe fight t o& place, waich has terminated by darkness; tue enemy wasdriven back at all points, and thus the affair rests. Gen. Heintzelman will move on him at daylight from Centreville, and I do not see how the enemy is to escape without heavy loss. We have captured a thousand prisoners, many erms, and one piece of artillery. Joun Porz, Msjor General. ——_—________.. FROM MINNESOTA, Fight with the Indians at New Ulm. Sr. Pavt, Minn, Aug 23.—Ten whites were killed and fifty-one weunded at the fight on sat- urday. The Indians fought bravely and reck- lessly. Their loss was considerable. 1 Sunday our small force, under Major Flan- drew, finding that they could not stand another attack, withdrew to Mankets, leaving the town to the mercy of the Indians. It is reported that between 500 and 600 Indians were in the fight. Col. Sibley’s command probably reached Fort Ridgley yesterday. The adjutant general of Minnesota issued an order to the commanding officers to seize all horses and means of transportation necessary, on giving receipts to their owners. The massucre does not seem to be confined to one locality, but spread over a vast amount of territory. It 1s reported that 46 families had all but two persons killed at Lake Spitik, 60 miles southwest of New Uim; but these reports are un- doubted|y exaggerated, many persons having fled or secreted themselves, who are Probably sup- pcsed to be killed. The entire nuimber of Sioux Indians in Minne- sota is about 7,200, of whom 1,500 are warriors. Gov Ramsey, in a proclamation, gives assurance that no apprehension need be felt for the safety of the thickly-settled Urabe of the State. The force sentagainst the Indians is believed to be more than sufficient to drive them into Missouri. Gov Ramsey, however, has called an extra session cf the Legislatnre for the 9th of September, to pro- vide means of defense. ——$____ FROM CUMBERLAND GAP. A Skirmish—The Rebel Cavalry Reuted.
