And I know the Lord ..will some .day. sting your conscience fcr your cruelty, anal your heartlesenees toward that dear child." The speaker .was a comely lady .of about fifty, tall, slia: avad upright, and neatly clad in widow's weeds. Charles I'emierton, her eldest son. a .handsome, stalwart . young man of eight-and-twenty, whusi. she addressed, answered impatiently: Confound the boy, I wish he ras dead." He did not mean that, for he -ioved his little brother and delighted to suake hiin happy. But his mother had a falsi . facility of tongue, and for tha last three bcura had been attacking Jura on the subject 7ith aggressive meekness, and had ttung fclm with half-truth?, accusation the letter (Of . which he could not deny, though in thair spirit and essence he felt ihetc to bo inuacasurably false. And new, out of hU grief and impatience, he .flung - forth those bitter . words, angry with iacselX as he. did sc, and rising to leave the roots, lest his overwrought temper should betray him farther. His taintly mother. .Cub j & parting, tiaft after him You may, have your -wish sooner 4han tou expect, Charles, and more than ,tiat. lie will probably not trouble you rcany years, for be U very delicate, and I shall not outlive him very long. Thea I suppose yai will be hap-hap-happy:" Charles Pemberton saw, the . cambric pre pared for the shower, and, shsidering. fied; whereupon Mrs. Pern barton Jtetired to, bar bed room to pray that her soc'a hard heart might be softened. And then from a curtained recess at one end of the old paneled room theru'eame out & little boy of twelve, with Utocied, serious face, half-parted lips and wide darlc eyes. Toward tbe close. of Mrs. Femberton's lecture he bad entered , the roora.fc.7 an open window unperceived and finding that he was the subject of the .discourse he had "concealed himself. 4Ie had heard only the concluding words and they chilled hi, very lifeblood. He stood now with one haad -clutching the curtain. ''So Charles wishes I were dead, does he? And mother thinks lam going totdie to please him. But I woe't. 1 wonder what makes mother think J am going Jtc die. Perhaps she only said it to aggravate Charles. Why should be wish I wasidad? I thought he was fond of me;" and hexe he was nearly choked with arising sob, .vr-bch he gulped down with dü-city. "I wonÄ3r why-I'll ak him." The next morning, after breakfast, tta brother, who had forgotten .the incideat af the previous day, taking a taX, called out: . M tj a . a a uet your bat, leddy, ana ufi. have .an ! xi crura practice. As they were walking down to. the .told Edward suddenly startled hü brother by svsking: "Would it be any good to tou if I was dead Charles r 'Good to me? why, Teddy, what are you thinking of ?'' '"Well, yesterday you said you wahed I was dead; and you wouldn't wish. that if it . would be no good to you, would you?" Charles stopped abruptly, and said j?Uh sternness, "Who told you that?" 'Nobody. I just came into the room as you said it,' and you didn't see me. Axd ever since I have beea wondering why. Charles Femberton flung away the bat and ball he was carrying, and cdasped the boy in his arms, kissing him, and bugging him like a girl with a new doll. "0 Teddy, Teddy, Toddy," he said; "I wishmytaDgue had ten torn outyithe roots before I had said iuch a thing; but I j : j T. J i "v . i v. I meant, did you? Why, Teddy, I wouldn't lose you for all the or!d, my little playfellow, my brother. It isn't right for me to complain to you of mother, dd when I have just told you how it .happened that I said those cruel words that I didn't mean, didn't ever mean, you know, for a moment, Teddy -then you must forget all- about iL I had told mother that I wanted to mate a man of you, and that it was time you went to school, and learnt to stick up for yourself, tnd then she said I was cruel to you, and that I didn't care for you, and lectured and scolded mo all tbe afternoon, and then I forgot myself which I ought not to have done, for I know it ü only her lore that makes her over anxious and I said those hateful words that I never, never, ZLover meant, Teddy." I thought you never could mean it, Charles," t-aid the little fellow. lie bad borne up with wonderful stoicism till now, but the overwhelming sense of relief was too much for him, and he began to weep and sob convulsively. Then ilrs. Femberton glided from the shrubbery at hand, made a half-gesture as though she would have claaped the little fellow in her arms, and borne him way, but checking herself, turned on her eldest son a cold, reproachful glance, and said : It would be less unkind of you, Charles, and more manly, if you are determined to tear tbe child from me, not to make bis re mailing days miserable." And then with aggravating meekness of demeanor she turned once more to the Louse Teddy looked after her with a queer old

fashioned smile on his young fase. but when she was quite hidden from view he f prang up and clasped his brother's neck, faying: "I'll go to school, Charlie, and I'll do just aa you Like, and you'll eee if I won't be a man, and I'll win th Greek and Lalin prizes, too, if I can; bit you know I'm not clever, Charlie, so you tmisn't be disappointed if I don't do that all at once; will you?" I'll trust you. Teddy, my boy, to do the best you can, and none of us -can do more than that. I shall miss yeu sorely, Teddy, but there'll be jolly long holidays you know, and we shall have pleasant timea together then. And now come on and let's see how you'll guard your wicleet. If you don't do me credit as m cricketer, I'll rit on jou." The poor lady's heart was very sore when her boy had gone, and she fcH herself alone, and many and dread were the misgivings that darkened her mied. And Charles, too, felt himself alone. Thsy may talk as they will of the solitude of -feserts, of Arctic wastes, of uninhabited 'islands, but there ia no solitude like that of feeing -skut up in the same house with one we love and with one whom we would fain bold affectionate intercourse and communion, tut who at -every advance toward confdence withdraws to some inner shrine and bf.rs our approach. Mrs. Femberton's married life had been outwardly calm and uneventful; but she was out of sympathy with her husband, a msn of easy, jovial temperament, who scarcely noticed her coldness, and never troubled himself about it; and she had sought consolation in religion. Sho 'had fallen under the influence of several meek fanatics, wno held that 4,the world," .end things of the world were forbidden te them. When her husband died, leaving her-oniy ;a life-interest in a moderate property, and making his eldest son sole guaroVan'of the boy, she had made some efforts U w in .over Charles to her views; but his honest healthy nature was absolutely impervious to those narrow notions; he was, according to the jargon of her sect, "given up to a approbate mind," he belonged to the world from which -she had been commanded to co4ce out and be separate," and day by day the icy crust of reserve in which she lived became thicker and denser; and it was rendered .more hard by the feeling of bitterness inspired by the provisions of her husbanaVs -will. Charles felt all this acutely. lie tried to be, and he was a good son, but all attompts at. filial con fidence were repulsed. He had. rarely .been betrayed into an expression of disrespect, and when he had, his utterances were received with meekness tlutt was infinitely worse than any reproach, few as the impatient words were, Mrs. iTemberton .bore all these sayings in her heart, andemb.aced them as "her cross." The tind of fatalism which she had accepted, mfcfe'her bow with resignation to the will which. had decreed the eternal perdition of her -older -son in common with that of the overwhelming ma

jority rf the human .race, but with some thing of inconsistency she prtyed with , passionate .earnestness that her vyoungar son might be given to her, and mi rlitib9 .gathered into the fold of tbe elect. . The by throve at school. Jlis health, now that ike was freed from maternal .codding, improved rapidly. As wts do be eocpected, he did full justice to bis 'brother's diligent coaching in athletics, sind, what no one had eipected, he developed a wonderful faculty for mathematics. JTothing could be mare satisfactory than the .reports of his conduct and progress; and mcthing brighter and oiore beautiful than bc lad's healthy confidences with his brother in his happy holidays when he described Lwachool life and the fonng hopes and aVuVUions kindling with-ic him. . But Mrs. l'aerberton looked on all Aheie ithings with pio disapproval. "Charles, shwould say sometimes, 'rou ere filling that -dear boy's mind full. of JvCrldly thoughts, .and should the Lordor.e day open your eyes to see the truth, it will be, as gall and wormwood to you to tUnV: whtt you have done." 'ttVhy mother,' Le would sayf ''even the A6lle tells us to 1-3 diligent in business.; and ft is .Teddy's buciness now to get widooi.Jid with all hk getting to get understanding." "Yot talk lightly aai frivolous,' would be the uis wer, "for y.cu are of the world, worldly; the letter which killeth you know; e:the spirit joaao ignorant, spiritually tliad." "But, crother "I can cot,: discuss the netter with you," sho wouli interrupt, "hutdivill pray that your minclDay be enlightened." "And so, with ostentatious meekness she would leav bim to grope in oiler darkness. When the iterm of Teddy's ackool life was drawing to a close, the head c.ster of the school strongly urged that heiiauld go to Cambridre: aa.d . the lad himself nleased V?rith the idea, eras encouraged ip,Js desire y the f Act that the dearest of,Jls school friends had just entered bt. Jobni. JJut this was sc extension of the ,ducatScnal course which had not been coUempated. The Tendjertons, though .ia .amfwrttble circumstance, were not jveal&y. ßy the will of his father only a very moderate s.m had been assigned lor tho boy.' educaiion, and this hid always been doubled by Charles out of his a wn limited means in order ttat he might bas e the advantage of a superior school. If he .went to the University the funds roust counS entirely from bis elder brother, who woultl have to deny .himself in miy ways to arrtnge matters. And it was especially h,n.rd to do at ihi time, for, t ha opportunity had just occurred At purchasing on advantageous terms some fields on which he had long Jookcd with tvn eye of rationii desire. Old JUveraore, his alter ego on tUe fai3, was very urgent that be should buy them. 'There's thejixteen-acre, at.1 Three-ash 1'ield, and Hartlay Coptte," be 6aid, "and you must ha' lam, maaster. They just roownd off" the propputty beautlcul. There han't never bin such a chance, sir' Ay can meeind, and that'-a gettin' on .for fifty year." 'Xo dfcubt, Livetcaore, no doajbt," be answered, as he cast a longing eye .toward tbe fields a-entioned, ling like a pecinsula in the tea of his own estate. ''Mo do.bt it is most desirable we should have them; but I fear if Mr. dward gocj to the University I can sot afford to make the purchase." "(Loos to the 'Varsity!' said Liver nwee in a t;ne of contempt; "acid what should Maastää Edward roo to tho JVarsitv for. Ar - r ,- j , shu'd laike to kow. Old maaster he never s went, no more did yow, and both on you got on very well wi'out it: ' "That's very Uzo," replioi he; 'but then neither my father nor I bad much taste lor books, and parson tells ce Mr. Edward is a genius and must be cultivated. Cut I have not absolutely made up tay mind yet. I have promised to give Argt my answer next week, and I shall notdecijo till then." And so he strode away, bis mind prvitj well made up to forego the opportunity r which both bis father and hi had - longed and to send the bright young scholar to dis tinguuh himself on the Cam. Mrs. Femberton bad been looking forward with hungry desire to the closing of the chapter of Teddy's school axpartence. lie was still young and impressible and she would have opportunities daily and hourly of guiding his thoughts in the only direction in which, according to her views, they C9ü!(l be profitably employed. Her

nature, which hardened more and moro to all the rest of the world, concentrated all its tenderness and afiectlon on this boy; and her dearest hope on this sido of tbe grave was that it might be through her in. atrumentality that he ahould aparate himself from the world, tven as she had done. "When, therefore, a few days after bis conversation, with iJivermore, Charles announced to her his intention of fending the boy to Cambridge, it was to her a cruel and bitter blow. For a few moments she sat in silence, the gloom deepening on her face, and her heart growing icier then ever wilhin her. "It will not be with my will or with my consent, she said at length, that he goes. But 1 know my will and my wiah have no weight with you, and that you delight to thwart them." 'Nay, mother," eaid he auildly, aI am thinking only of Teddy's good. It would be far pleasanter for me to have him at home, but both Dr. Vardy and Mr. L'Oste assured me that Ted has remarkable abilties, and that he ought to go. The boy himself is eager to go; and I know he will distinguish himself, if honest work can bring him distinction. "And what good," she flashed out, "will his distinction do him? Knowledge puffeth up, and it shall vanish away. There is but one thing needful to know, and of that he is likely to learn little among gay and thoughtless youths whose homes are all of this world. You are willing te gratify your own small and wordly ambition by sacrificing the hoy's only true in teilst.' "Mother," be pleaded, "I wish you would be a little more reasonable" "Ay, reasoa? she broke in. 'lleafon is the will-o'-tbe-wisp that leads tou astray, not only to your own undoing, but that of others. You think yourself wise and you mav be wise in tbe affairs of this world, but od has said 'I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; I will brirvg to nothing the understanding of the prudent.' " There was no pity for him dn this anticipation of ultimate failure. She was ready with quotations at every turn to justify herself, and to condemn her son. He would gladly have avoided giving her pain, had he known how to do so, but having made up his mindjas to what was best for the lad, he did not shrink from carrying it out; and as he walked the fields alone, month after month, he was oppressed by a dull sorrow which he was compiled to bear ii utter solitude, for L no living soul could he complain of his mother. Iiis only .consolation was that in his College career Teddy fully justified every expectation that had been formed of him. Iiis last long vacation bad come, and be was tospend it with bis old school chum, who had been bis dearest friend also at College, but had left the University in the previous year. Turenne Jernayn was a young man whose friendship was worth having, clearheaded, sound-hearted, oc exuberant vitality. He had often heard from Teddy of 'dear old Charlie," and in arranging for this leng vacation an earnest invitation had been given that he should join. them. It offered a tempting break in a dull monotonous life and was accepted. Sir Frederick Jcnuyn's eat lay on the slope of a lovely Berkshire hill, shut round by woods, but overlooking a wide and charming landscape. As Charles Peinber-:

ton passed tne lodge gates ana saw on either side the evidences of wealth and social station be began U regret his acceptance, feeling that he would sc&rcelv be at his. ease amid surroundings so much above his own homelier state. Tbe .cordiality of his .welcome, however, soon chafed away these misgivings, and he bad not been many hours at NVilmore Court before a new set of feelings took possession of his mind. .11; lud exchanged greetings with Sir Frederick, Turenne and his brother, and was reading, with their assistance, ithe noble view from the window, whn he was suddenly conscious of another presence Lithe room, anil .turning beheld Miss .Jermyn, concerning whom, curiously, Teddy .ia his .letters had-said nothing, but whose presence, as he thought made of tho haiua temple. r ot that she was a beauty. A fair-baed ,gkl, with larg gray eyes and rather blunt ieatures,! there was nothing of classic .grace about her; but m every line her faoe there .shone -tho light of a beautiful soul. Those was a rfaut flush on her&tce, nd two.good littlo .fxmples marked Lor pleus-suat-airfLIe, as. looking straight into bis face with .frank, .clear eyes, she held .author hand to roe t him, And made captiv of him farever. -Toir brother," ie said, '-is already one of the fau-ij, and;he ha? made you ft? well known to.ua .that X ifeel as though I were welcoming. an old friead." "T&&Ek at Yerv mvh, said he, "I toje I may yet berivileged to give you better reasons' lor regarding m as such.' Thatoigkt,as he satiin his room long after the household was ft asleep, he could but a$k himself, with a beating heart, whether it were possible thtX there was in store for him a compensatioa. for much of weariness in his lite hitherto, ao immeasurably rich as the love of this girt He never thought of him&elf as liviag a life of selfsacrifice. He had found some thicks rather hard to hear, and life had perhaps been blank for him a negative thing, lint with Lilian by his side how naturally the name slid into his thoughts -his whole life would be flooded with joy. Was be too old to Ixjpe for such bliss? He was barely thirty-sevo in years, and he was younger in that he had never been hackneyed in the ways of love, and hU heart had never bowed to a meaner passion. When he descended nest morning there was the light of love and hope in bis face. . "Why, Charlie," exclaimed Teddy; "how young yen look I If you grow backward at this rate while you are at Wilmore Court, mother will hardly know whu-h is which." The young man looked at him from day t day with wonder, for his whole being was transformed. He had never realized tiiJ now the buoyancy and energy of the spirit which had been cabined and confined at tome. Every day the wonder grew, fcr every day the light of hope burned clearer and stronger within him. He tvat?hed Teddy and Lilian in frank and hippy intercourse, and thought with delight that they were already as brother and sister Her manner to him was confidential, almost affectionate. He was sure of his ground; more and more sure each day till the very latt, on tbe eve of which ho sat in his bedroom, musing much, for he had determined that be would know his fate on the worrow. Thero wos a tap at the door. Come in," he cried, and, turning, saw his brother, with a brilliant flush on his face, and a strange fire in his eyes. "CWirlie," said he, in a voice that quivered with some deep feeling, 4'l want to tell you something." 'Yes,'' said he kindly, and scarcely noticing these signs of unusual emotion. "And I hare, I think, something to tell you. What is your news?" Teddy walked to the window, and stood there looking out "for a few seconds before he asked, speaking abruptly, and without turning: Charlie, what do you think of Lilian Jermyn?" Had the boy then discovered his secret, and was he coming to urge him to the step on which he had already determined? Ills agitation was so great that he ctuld scarcely

find words to speak but he began to answer slowly in low tones: I ahould, perhaps, have spoken to you earlier, Teddy " The young man turned to him repulsively Ahl" he exclaimed you have seen it alL I might known that, dear old brother. Charlie, b!ass me, congratulate me, make much of me; she has promised to be my wife." He had thrown his arms around his elder brother'a neck in the old childish way, and wa.4 for a moment or so incoherent in bis joy; he did not observe, cr if he did observe attributed to a wrong cause his brother'a emotion, though he felt in every fibre of his frame a thrill of graceful recognition as his brother kissed bis forehead and said: 'God bless you, Teddy, and make you worthy of such a treasure,' An hour later as Teddy was ler.ving him he sr-id: "Ob, Charlie, there was something yout were going to tell me. What is it?" "Oh, that was a small matter, we will not mix it with your joy to-night." Mrs. Femberton did not approve of the match. Years were growing on her, and her one hope seemed further from fulfillment than ever. Her yearning love for her younger son roado her more tender than was her wont in all that she said to him, but toward Charlie she was cold and bitter in her heart, though she cloaked her coldness and bitterness to herself under the thought of resignation only to the Divine 'It is you," she said, "who have made this match, in your poor, short-sighted ambition. You have ben permitted to have your own way in all things; and you are right, probably, as this world goes. But the fashion of this world passeth away. You have been selfiish all through Edward's career, and sooner or later you will reap as you have sown."

COBICEB.M.U WOBCX. The influence of a woman upon the Sultan to-day threatens to disturb the peace of Europe. Miss Mary J. R. Newton was ejected a School Trustee of Long Island City, the enlj Republican elected to any office. The Leipsic Folice are making war on ladies' trains in the street. The women have been given notice through the newspapers that all persons whose dresses are found trailing on the sidewalk will be fined from five to fifty marks. Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, the philanthropist, says the item going the rounds of the papers that she has triven away $0,000,000 in charities and that it has all been misused, is very disagreeable to her; that she never designed to convey any such meaning, and never gave any such figures. Edmond Scherer, French author and critic, writing of George Eliot, says: The novel is an ephemeral kind of literature, reproducing the manners and feelijgs of an epoch; it fades as these change. Georg-. Sand's works are already behind us, and her first had faded long before her -death. Balzac's world appears now petty and narrow; and what if we go back to Delphine, Corinne, and the Nouvelle Heloise? Yet one can scarcely think that England will ever cease to read tho works of George Eliot. A bill has lately passed the two Houses of Legislature in Faris authorizing the estaDlisnment of a number of Lycees for girls. Instruction in France k divided into threo degrees, the Ecoles Coiuraunales, or Fubiic Schools, the Lycees, corresponding to our Colleges, and the facoultesr higher instruction, such as is comprehend. in our law", medical and scientific schools. The moveneat is ore which corresponds therefore to thatiin this country which, aikaa to secure a Collrjiate course of training for women, except that their discipline is aiade exceedingly ttiict, and membership of the Lycee for wocien will be, as it is foremen, narrowly exclusive. It is not only ceeessary to pass these different examinations, but recommendations and appointments must be secured from people of standing a system not unlike that adopted at West Foint. These newColleges are to be openedjin the coming yecr. A plot will be immediately purchased a.d mortar and bricks carted to the place that there may be no delay in putting the taw in force. A VCpman'a Postscript. Very few gactlemcn, I fear, realize their indebtedness t woman for the vast aosoun of fun they hve enjoyed at ber expetvse. Jfch has been thpever-iailing target for tie shafts of ridicule, and think how many of our poets have on their first laurel n caricaturing some Ciminine method, manner, or custom. 'Hoa- a girl throws a ball," " How a woman caüües a chicken," How a lady sharpens a pencil," etc., etc. In former days the chief tnbject for fun was a woinan'-s postscript. I hat was in the good old day of letter-writwg, when the postscript was expected to .contain more than tbe customary letter of the present day, xnd, as we believe in resurrecting good, old fashions, we propose to add a postscript to our letter of last week in regatj to Cbrietnias present, especially as from responsive letters we receive! we fear the omissions greatly exceeded the suggestions. In the first place we would say to the friend "who was rendered utterly unhappy because she was obliged to purchase a cheap grade of goods, that possibly she has not learned the best method of shopping. Of course, a wise salesman knows that it U to his interest to display the best and most expensive material cr wares first, but tho wise customer will calmly decide about what she can afford to give for an article, and will ask first to see a lower priced article. For instance, to be more explicit, you. have decided to give or $25 for a tea set. If tou co to a china store and look at an exquisite $150 set, of course the plainer one will greatly diminish in value. AVould not the the better plan be to look at a $15 set first, and then be correspondingly happy when you have secured the better one at $23? It requires a good deal of nerve for a generous person to do Christmas shopping. Now, in the matter of pictures. If you spend an hour looking at the choicos-t engravings, the beautiful heliotypes. will not seem so desirahle: but if the heliotype is within the pofsibilities of your purse, why not rejoice in the fact, as we do, that these beautiful copies of the Aurora," "The Angel liaphael," "Tho Seasons," -St. Jerome" "The Madonnas," "Rosa Bonheurs Studies," and the beautiful "Flowers of the Field" are thus brought within the reach of the most moderatefpurae; and indeed we enjoyed exceedingly, a few days since, a collection of picture, at the home of a friend, who had carefully mounted on card-board the"bcst wood cut3, having a collection of three hundred portraits of the representative people whose pictures have from time to time appeared. Again, is it nota good plan to give the little folks in our households a certain amount of money to expend for little gifts for each other and their friends, thus introducing them early to the delight of giving? A Tide In Our Affairs. Woman's Journal. The friends of Woman Suffrage have not for many a day bad such substantial reason

to congratulate themselves on the hopeful Rnd promiiing condition of their causo aj now. First, we have bad the emphatic action of the Boston Methodist ministers meeting, in which they expressed 'hearty and entire sympathy and co-operation " with our movement, Next has come full indorsement of our claim in the message of Governor Long John O. Whittier, the poet, beloved by all, sends his cordial hail and amen to part of the message. Next, Governor Cornell, of New York, in his niersace speaka heartilv

of the good results from School Suffrage in I iL . Li. i. a i .1 ma otaie, ana recommenas suca amendment and modification of the law as shall make its conditions early understood. The next step is of a kind never before to my knowledge offered to our cause. In the Maine 'Senate, on Friday, the 7th inst, Hon. David Dudley, of Aroostook gave notice that "at an early day he should introduce a bill to amend the Constitution, so as to give the pri-vileges of elective franchise to all its citizens, without regard to ajcx." Without any petition or movement by the women of Maine, Senator Dudley has undertaken tor nromen what St. Pail told the magistrates they ought to do wlio had thrust him into prison ''openly aij uncondemned." St. Paul said for bims 'if, and his fellow-prisoner, Let them oxe themselves and fetch us out." Senator Dudley has come himself to fetch us out. This is the first unsolicited offer of help fr jm the ranks of those by whom the key is held, which keeps our fetters locked. It is the dawning of the day long waited for, when an awakened sense of injustice among men will bring to our cause that fine and high championship which they who have strength and pawer owe to those who are at disadvantage in both those respects by hard conditions. Above every other hopeful sign of the time, I hail this gauntlet so gallantly thrown down by Senator Dudley. Now let the women ofMtir-e hold up his hands by petitions asking, as he does, for full suffrage. He will hive the warm sympathy of a. host of onlooking women and men who agree wiCi him. All along tho lines are the signs of that building which has ''neither the sound of a hammer, nor the noie of any instrument," but whose strong foundations are laid, and whose top stone is sure. Oregon and Minnesota have their amendment in band. Indiana and Pennsylvania are pushing for Presidential suffrage. California is moving in the right direction, and Colorado stirs again. Vermont has made sure of three advance steps during the session of the Legislature just closed. Rhede Island and Iowa, ever active, ask for full suffrage. New Hampshire keeps up a staady interest.
