There was an ominous, an awiul pause of some duration, and tien Betty came down again, paler, with the luncheon untouched between the two hot plates, and on the top of them the note which was to this ef- fect, verbatim: “ Mrs. B. will thank Mrs. A. to disseminate her goose in her own sphere.” [London Worid. CRUELTY IN YouNG CuILpREN.—There is a Strange vein of hard-hearteduess and cruelly that may often be noticed with young chii- dren, and that requires care in its early re- moval. Sometimes it appears with children who are not by auy means to be reckoned as on the whole peculiarly depraved. They are careless, unaccountably and shockingly, of one another's fool. and do not mind taunt- ing one another with poverty or shabbiness of dress, or with respect to the vices or the mis- fortunes of their parents or friends, or w.th regard to whatever else that is disagreeable may come in their way. Much of this ill be- havior comes, no doubt, of inexperience and thoughtlessness, but it is not all due to that. And whatever the cause may be, the disposi- tion is one that should not be neglected and sufiered to strengthen itself. Pains ought to be taken, when such actions are observed, to cause the child to understand the real hate- fulness and wrongfulness of what he is doing. He should be put in the way tosee how the other child is affected by it; and both his con- science and his power of sympathy should thus be called into play. Children, being but | as they are, need guidance and help, some- times even the help of a wise severity, in such matters. And the mischief is one that teach- ers, as well as parents, may often have oppor- tuntty to correct.—{ Congregationalist. AN INCIDENT OF THE PLAGUE.—At the cor- ber of St. Joseph and Baronne the reporter entered aroom on the ground floor of atwo story brick building. On acrib lay a boy ap- parently about thirteen years of age, whose tossings and twitchings were watched over b. a fond mother. When the reporter entere the wet eyes of the mother told the tale. Mistaking the identity of the reporter for a doctor she, with no little emotion, said: ‘On! doctor, Jimmy is dying.” Entering the room, the poor littie sufferer was found to be breath- ing stertorously, his eyes fixed, and evidently with but a short time tolive. “Doctor, do teil me,” said the mother, *thow long can he live? He was B good boy, and would not associate with bad boys. He was one of the best boys in the world.” The sun sianted down in the western sky, the shadows of the houses and fences lengtheued out, the quiet of our short twilight stole over the streets, and as mother and cousin watched over the thin form of their beloved little one, without a warning. its spirit, in quietude and peace, left its habita- tion, and, with those gone before, entered iato the ‘great unknown world.—[New Orleans Democrat. A_ Living GuacigR IN CoLorapo.— We camped one night ata very pretty little lake in the Wind river range. Part of the mem- bers, who can never be still at any time, day or night, not satisfied with their long day's ride, clambered to the suminit of the cele- brated Wind river , just above us. They report that they saw there a real living glacier, just under thepeak on the north side. The snow is considerably melted on the peak, and unmistakably from the white crust loomed the deep blue gorges of a glacier, banded by seams of dirt and gravel, following systematic curves, showing that the center moves faster than the sides. It was an unexpected sight, and made quite an excitement In the crowd. The following morning at 8 o'clock the dis- coverers, reinforced by the incredulous of the party, retraced their steps, and saw the mag nificent spectacle with their own eyes. Itis supposed that this is the first, at least one of the first, living glaciers ever found in the in- terior of our continent.—{ Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial. FINED FOR MARRYING A MrNoR.—An inter- esting case was arbitrated on Saturday at Uniontown, Pa. The plaintiff in the case was Mr. Van W. Thomas, of Webster, Westmore- land county, Pa. The defendant was the Rev. T. N. Eaton, pastor of the M. E. chureh of Brownsville. The latter was charged with having married a minor daughter of the plain- tiff’s, and having failed to fulfill the law which requires him to inquire as to the age of the contracting parties, and in the event of one of them being a minor to publish the bauns for several weeks preceding the ceremony. This | law is very old, and said toantedate by several | years the Independence of the United States. ‘The marriage was performed some ago, Miss | Thomas being the bride and Mr. Cummings, of | West Newton, the bridegroom. Mr. Thomas did not regard his daughter's alliance with favor.

It was a matter of custom now, and I thought nothing of it; it pleaved him,and on the whole it was rather pleasant (0 me also. I must confess, however, I was rather sur- prised when, one morning as we got tothe ave- nue which led up to the Manor House, Mr. Cartwright asked me to be his wife. I have never been able to find out why I said es, but C did: perhaps I thought it a pity to hrow away so much love; or, perhaps it was because he was so terribly i I dared not refuse him; = 1 pale face, and his low, pleading face would ever haunt me if I rejected er. 2 Pe it was beeause he oy asked me to mar- He im—he did not ask me if I loved him, for I think he guessed I did not ; age it was all these reasons put together, but oad Tsaid yes, and in due time we were married. 1 ought to have been very happy. for he was a most devoted husband, but I was not, and though I did not notice it then, T know’ now that for the first six months after our marriage be was not happy either. a It was all my fault—I either would not or could not love him; 1 accepted all his devo tion tome asa matter of course, but I mad+ uo effort to return it; and I am sure he had found out that he had made a mistake in mar. rying a woman who did not love him. One morning, about six months afer our marriage, he told me at breakfast that he in tended leaving me alone for afew weeks, to stay with his mother, who was not very weil. He watched the ettect of this announeement on but though I was really dispicased, 1 concealed my annoyance, and asked carelessly when he would start. He pel the next day if I had no objec tion, and so it was setiled. He was more affectionate than usual that day, and I was colder than ever; Lonly once alluded to his journey, and that was to ask iff might have my sister Maud to stay while he was gone. ‘The next morning 1 was anxious to avoid a formal parting, so [drove to the station with him. As the train moved off, I remembered this was our first parting since our marriage and I wisked I had not been so cold. When I got home the house looked so drear: avd empty and there was no one to meet me ‘senily one of the servants came for the wis, and with her Nero, Mr. Cartwright’s riever, which, when he saw I was alone, set up akow! for his master.

There was a photograph of me standing on his writing table, and another on the chimney- pi \s hung two or three of my drawings, which he had begged of me when We Were engaged ; indeed, the room was full of little remembrances of me; I opened a book I had given him, and in it was his name in my handwriting, and underneath in his own, “From my darling wife.” I laid it down with a sigh, as I thought how earefuily he treasured everything I had ever viven him, and how little care I took of all his xifts tome. Everything I attempted, everything J looked at reminded me of his goodness to ine and of amy coldness and ingratitude to him. At last I went to bed, where, after working myself into a fever of anxiety lest he should not have reached the end of his journey in safety, Lat length cried myseif to sleep. ‘The next morning I went down to breakfast with a beavy heart, for I knew I could not hear from him till the next day; it seemed so strange to breakfast alone, and Neroappeared to think so too, for he was most uahappy, snifting round hts master’s chair in the most melancholy mauner. i My plate, for the first time since my mar. riage was empty, as I sat down to breakfast, for my husband, who was an early riser, al- ways had a little bouquet to greet me with morning: frequently I forgot all about it, and left it ere into water by the ser- vant; this morning I would have treasured it | most carefully if he had gathered it. After breakfast I determined to rouse sh self and go and visit some of the poor people in the village, so I filled my basket with some little delicacies for the sick and set out. Wherever I went it was the same story, all | held forth on my husband's goodness and kindness, for all had been helped by him in | some Way or other, and ali loved and resvecied | him. _As I listened with burning cheeks I felt as if I was the only person on earth who had treated him with cruel ingratitude, and I was the very person whom he most loved and cherished. . a At last I went home, tired and sick at heart ; but there was no one to notice I was pile and Worn out, no one to get me wine or soup to revive me, no one to make me lie down and rest, as he would have done had he been there. Oh, how I missed him! What a fool I had been! Was there ever woman loved and cared for as Thad been? Was there ever friend so ungrateiul? Oh! why had 1 ever let him leave me? Iwas sure he would never come back. Why bad he gone away? . And conscience answered, ** You drove him; he gave you all he had to give, and ia return py ave him nothing but cold looks and un- ind’ words; aud so he left you to seek love and sympathy from his mother.” This thought almost maddened me. Infancy I saw her sitting in my place by his side, lov- ing and caressing him, as I had the best right tolove and caress him. I pictured her re- ceiving eet | the little loving acts I had received so coldly, and now I was seized with a jealous anger against her. I mentally ac- cused her of estranging my husband from me, fe onen his heart was not large enough for of us. When Maua arrived in the afternoon I treated her toa long tirade of abuse against mothers-in-law in general, and my own in par- ticular, and I vented all the anger I really fel: moe myself on the innocent Mrs. Cart- wright. “Why, Nelly,” said Maud, “I thought you liked Mis. Cartwright so much, and thought her so nice, that you even wanted her to live with you, only — coop id, very properly, as mamma says, objected. “so I did.” I answered; “but I did not know then she would ever entice my husband away from me in this way, or, of course, I should never have liked he) “Really, Nell, you are very hard on the poor woman ; for, as [ understand, Mr. Cartwright went to her of his own free will, because she vas not well, and he thought his company would do her good,” ud. .? sald Mat Nonsense; | am sure he would never have Jeft me alone, unless she had put him up to it,” I replied, rather erossly. v “The truth is, tes fou are so muchin love with your husband that you are jealous even of his mother ; and you are making your- self miserable about nothing. Why, Mr. Cart- wright will be back in a fortnight, and I dare say 78 will get @ letter from him every day; so cheer up, and let us go fora drive,” said Maud. I agreed to this plan, and saving Maud the reins, Ilay back and thought of her words. Was she right after all? Was I jealous? ‘as Ireally,as Maud said, in love with my hus- band? Had I only found it out now I was de- prived of his company’? Was this the reason tbat I could do nothing but inwardly reproach {for my conduct to him? And the lon- ger 1 thought, the more conyiuced | became that Maud was right, that I was jealous and that 1 was in love. as she called it. This knowledge did not make me happier, for I no sooner knew I loved him than I longed to tell him so, and make up, as far as I could, for all my former cruelty, for I eou!d call my conduct by no milder word. —— a sleep- less night, and as I lay awake E composed va- rious letters of confession, which I resolved to send the following = but when morning came my pride stepped and I began to feel it would be pe le to write, and I settled I must wait til my husband eame home and then tell him how his absenee had altered me. got up early and walked out to meet the t-Inan, SO anxious was I to get a letter from ; it was the first I had ever received from since our marriage, and no girl was ever ‘so anxious for or so “ope with her fiast love letter as I was over this.
