Nothing extraordinary about that I suppose two or three hundred i my countrymen, might be found in Liver pool answering to this catalogue, barzing the same. Ami there is nothing nnnsttal about me, either,, Mare than ten years experience has made of me a mere business machine. Iam devoted to the pen;' . a. p., merchandise debit and credit are my masters. The

atmos;uet of the coontiiig-hoase is necessary to my existenee. In brief, Bob Chalmers is known to his employers and to his friends as a prosy, plodding, industrious fellow and a competent man of business. . I never told any t them that I was haunted. Nor have I dared to tell my young vile. The thing is so perfectly moonststent with my whole life and character, with myself, in short, that scoh a eotifeMHon would be, regarded as asjgs of insanity. So I hare always kept this trouble to myself. It has wearied and vexed me; bat I hare not dared speak of it. a .' Haunted is the only word I can use todesignate.it. Not that I hare had ghostly visitants. I steep as sound as any man in the United Kingdom. My appetite is, and: always., has been, remarkably good. Th, things that have continually come to man a name and a vision. The name of Charles Gardean. Annnasaal name. French, I should think. ' I never heard it spoken; never Tsad . it anywhere, in print, or in writing, or knew any person , who bore it. 'Where I picked it up has been just as great an enigma to me as why it should occur to me so often. That odious name! odions to me, assuredly. B- has possessed me, as the Old Man of the Sea did Sinbad. It has: rung in my ears. It has come between mo and the great ledgers, so that sometimes I have had to take a turn in the office to get rid of the 3tasxt that Charks 'Gardeaa was written in great ronnd characters all over the page, And once, in my impatience, to the amazement and horror of my staid Presbyterian employer, . I gave vent to my feelings in the ejaculation, "Whoever he is, may the devil takehimr "And the vision?" I cannot be certain but that it first came to me in a dream. If so, never .was dream so startling, so life-like. Whether it began in my sleep or not, certain it is that thereafter my waking hours were alive with it, and that the grand and terrible scene repeated itself before my eyes again and again. Description is useless; I can only outline it. The vision was of myself, in a rowboat on s broad river, at anchor by a large isimd, fishing. The time was near-sunset; f most go home. The stone that held my boat on the shallow water was taken in, I laid to the oars, sod was soon, half across the great stream. One of the thole-pins broke, and the oar flew from my hand. The .. current was swift, and it floated quickly beyond my reach. I Med to use the ether oar as a scull, but could not make it work. The boat went down with the enrrcatt. I knew my danger, and shouted and waved my hat for help. People saw me front the distant shore, . but there was no boats at hand with which to attempt my rescue. The water became agitated ; the boat rocked, and shot violently down abrupt descents. It entered a tumbling, swirling, foaming flood; it passed other islands, where, afar off, I saw men and women gazing at me, dumb and motionless, with the sense of my impending fate. A ehmdof silver mist rose up far down the river, and a heavy uninternutting roar waa in the air. Faster went the boat, rocking and careening from side to side, while the spray drenched me. Then it seemed to shoot upward on tlie surface of a great green mass of water then it toppled -over, down into an avful abyssand J. knew no more. It was tee cause of some surprise among my friends that such a homely women-shunning fellow as I should marry at all ; it created positive amazement f'tat I did marry a girl who was not only as handsome as any girl in the three kingdoms, but also very rich ov U came abcut ba notUof tedo

with this narrative ; and as the way of it would make a very good story by itself I wQl defer it till another time. The pott man who marries a nob. girl is in duty bound to defer to he)' wishes ad opinions rather more than if the situation were vice versa. Therefore when Jane expressed wish to go ttoross the ocean for our bridal-tour, I consented with it fine appearance of ohcerteiness, though I hatted the ocean, and never thought Much of the Yankee. Maybe I shall, lire long enough to get over both these

prejadiees it's neither here nor there, earywayv.; We wetnV'to New York, to Washing ton, to New Orleans. We had been three months away and I wns secretly sighing for Liverpool docks when Jane bethought her that we must see Niagara before returning. Thither we went, of course; Jane VrtshedhV One bright morning of Uu.t visit we took a eafruure and went down to the gN&fc railway suspension l)ridge, across, and up the road on the Oai adian side to the place where Table Bonk used to be. Jane was fall of enthusiasm over what she called the grandeur of the scene, and was slightly provoked at me because I did not warm up to the sights, I then reminded her that she hod Often heard me tell her that f watt the most unscntimsVutal Scotchman of a most un sentimental race; and she retorted: "Yes, Bob; and I never understood what a truthful roan you ai till this moment. That, by the way, is the severest thing my wife has ever said t3 me. We sat there in the carriage a good half hour, looking at the river, the cataract, and the islands; and presently I began ' to get interested, and to confess to myself that here was something well worth looking at if it hadn't been in America. The drive? was a garrulous fellow, and between sight-seeing and listening to his stories about the place, I think we got the worth of our money. "People get carried over there some times?" I suggested. "O, yes every year two or three.'' And with that he talked off like a par rot au account of all such dreadful ac cidents in the last forty years, and the names of the poor victims. . "There was another one; that Pve saved till the last, for I saw it myself. T was long ago; in forty-nine, I believe. I knew the man; an old fellow that used to go across to Navy Island, three miles up yonder, and fish all day. That evening he lost an oar coming back, and the boat drifted right down into the rapids, and went over. Iiots of people saw it, but they might as well have been in Greenland for all they could do to help. O, I tell yon, ma'am, it was an awful sight when old French Charley threw up his arms and went over; just where yon see that green water out there! Pve waked up in the night morn's once, dreamia' of it." My troublesome vision bad almost abandoned me since I met Jane. The driver's words suddenly brought it back. "What was his name?". I asked. "French. Charley they called him; but his real name was Charles Gardeau." So, ilV came out. Who can explain it? I know nothing of metaphysics, and care less for everything of that kind, and I would if I oonld leave this strange discovery here where I found "it, and never think of.it again. I don't know what it means; I dont want to know. What tome is an old fisherman who died before I was born? of whom I sever heard until this day, except in the unaccountable way I have related. Did I bring this knowledge into the world with me? - But the thing is like Bnnquo's ghost: it will not down. Something, I know J not what, has in the far past made Charles Gardean known to me. NO 0VCB TUIXG AS HEKJSVITAKY INKBBtKTT "Why, it is all a mass' of rot and pure nonstnse," said Dr. William A. Hammond when asked his opinion as to "Hereditary Inebriety," upon" which a paper was read before the International Congress of Anthrophologists. "There is nothing known about it," the doctor continued; "it is all rot and nonsense. When a human being performs an act under the operation of certain impressions which are received there is a tendency toward the xerformance of a similar act if like influences are brought to bear upon the organism. Every lime the act is performed the disposition to repeat it becomes stronger, until at last the tendency is so firmly established that the act is accomplished without the reception of impressions of like character to those which originally gave rise to it, but solely through the force of the newly-acquired power." "I am afraid, doctor, that this " "O, I am not going into, scientific jargon dont fear. I was merely describing habit, and I wanted to show you in just one minute the impossibility of mere habit being transmitted. A man's haliitr are individual. That of taking strong drinks, for instance, lie can brf.lce off, as he can taking coffee or tobaocj or anything elss. "The only instance of transmitted habit, or appetite, we ought to call it, that & recorded is that on page 58 I think it is of my 'Treatise on Insanity.' That was the ease of a man who had the whim of drinking a cup of tea at midnight, and his father and grandfather had the same appetite. That is the only recorded case. Bnt I can now tell you the seqnel of it the man broke himself of the appetite, and that easily. "There is more nonsense and rot in this matter of inebriety than you have any idea of. I do not believe there is transmission of any appetite. It is no reason or precedent to show that because a man likes roast beef that his sons will like it. Quite the contrary. H there was such a transmission, why should not the clergyman's sons all be good? Why do they not avoid the cup as their father always has? The answer is they don't. "New York Herald. rJBBT XAHK.

Flies and beetlos arc pfcvfceUy reproduced mid attached to long scarf pins usually, thou arc worn hero, there, anywhere ono chooses, on the toilet. They are not intended to bo useful, merely ornamental. A young woiunn in a faultless white tnilet will, as a finishing touch, stick one of these pins in the lnce on tlie edge af her decollete waist and will get no small amusement watching your l'jok of cxpoeta5io;i when yon catch sight of it and vait for it to step over on to her white nock, which, of ccmrso, it most provoking! y nuver does. Men devoted to correctness in dress have taken up this fad. They aro now wearing brightnoilorod waistcoats, and tho bug or fly is wire to be noticed if carelessly pinned on. Ono youiig nfttn affects a caterpillar, and his prettyi'aoed "best girl" is thrilled with horror nt'tho sight of it J long, woolly length GKACEFltl, CORSAGES, above the manly heart which is all her own.. What dire possibilities does the sight present to her imaginative mind. A glance at tho luxurious and elegant toilets of the season suggests the susceptibility in variety of their cor--sages. There are some derided chaiacteristioa, however, in the midst of this infinite variety. In every case tho idea is to look slim and graceful. Whether the fronts of thoso bodices are aliko on both sides; whether they are pleated or amocked, fastened straight down or folded crosswiso; whether they are belted or half tied by ribbons, tho whole aim is slender outlines. Tho four illustrations onr artist has made us give a pretty good general idea of the many varieties that may bo utilized. The first also depicts the larg'j figured brocade which is now so modish. Small c-esigns in brocade have been tabooed for season after season, but the popular craze for historical ideas has brought in tho pompadour and Louis XV. patterns in tho richest AS APPLIED L'OJ.L.Ut. materials first, and later wo are given tho same artistic designs and exquisite colorings in challics and light weight silks, known as India, China, or pongee. In adopting them, however, yon must select only thoso in bunches of flowers as large as yonr baud ft', least. The second bodice shows a delightful arrangement of ribbon-striped black net. The wliolo effect being obtained simply by laying the stripes on ".ho silk .foundation after fanciful ideas. The chief danger to bo avoided to get tho desired effect is from ovcrtrimming. Let the material speak for itself. It is pretty enough. You know a protty girl "never need say much, neither need a pretty, fabric. .4. The days of choking collars are post, although we wear them higher than ever if- possible. But they are cut after a more sensible plan, are high and at the some timo qui to decidedly ornamental.

It ij a fabric whose "cool reservo" is grateful to the oppressed senses in hot weather, and if it becomes limp and discouraged wiiii wear it can readily bo restored in the laundry - and made to assume its first freshness. Since the times whn "purple and fine linen" were the acme of elegance in apparel, says tho I'hiladolphia Record, linen has retained a place as the pleasantest of tdl materials 'lot summer wear, notwithstanding tho cotmtless array of dinphnnous and airy fabrics in cotton, woolen and silli. Linen ginghams are charming for morning war, and their simplicity may be relieved with embroidery nnd ribbon, so that they become really dressy. The newest goods in this lino, however, arc tho lfcien daiiiasscs, woven., like gingham, but in designs resembling print, and which also like gingham are not ail linen, but with tho colored threads of cotton. Btripes, checks and fancy plaids in gray, iood-eolor, hjttwn, blue, red aud several pretty colotoom binations predominate, yet the Effect when madti up is qui to as pleasing; and satisfactory as the figured goos ol seasons past. ! The n-ovun linens are also in stripes and plaido of colors contrasted: with white, but these are all linen, and are the most durable of all similar fabrics. These are used not only for morning drosses but forboys' shirt waists and blouses, and for this purpose arc preferred to the figured linen cambrics aud percales, although the latter are used, especially in dark shades of blue. Blue flowers on white are the favorite figures in linen lawns, of which there are two varieties, known as the Irish and French, tho Irish linen, whjoh is sheer and evon, beiug slightly heavier than the French linen lawn. The latter has also tho advantage of more brilliant coloring iu its stamped patterns, (mo of which is extrciuolr pretty blue corn-flowers strewn over the surface. All of these are twentyfour inches wide, and consequently require rather more material to ' the dress than cotton prints. The styles for making up are simple enough to admit of laundrying and a favorite model is made with threo deep flounces covering tho plain skirt, and a short, fitted basque or surplus waist worn with n wide sash. Tucked plain skirts have a tucked sush of the material, or a full black drapery, which is cut square and hemmed all around, and drspjd by tapes fastened to the under rid ). White linen lawns, shear and coollooking, make beautiful dresses, aud are to be had in various grades of fineness; but tho vory finest are seldom used except for handkerchiefs or in-. fonts' dresses, and there is no woven fabric except bolting-cloth, which can compare in delicacy of tissue with tho baud-spun linen lawn. JtcHiiHff Vrltittl Onifltih A matrimonial discovery in Now York, says tho New York fiun, in that of a store kt;pt by a woman who, a a feature of her business in ludics' underwear, rents out tho linou portions of bridal outfits. ' Mho enables a girl of moderate resources to go on a tour or to spend the honeymoon in town,' happy in tho wearing of thoso portion of a trousseau as elegant as might lit a Fifth avenue belle. Fine textures, elegant embroidery, and all the whimsical frills known as lingerie, are at her command on rental. At au outlay of $5 or $6 she can buy a month's use of those beautiful and sjul-satisfying garments. The proprietor said that slx was doing well in that line. She had in stock a dozen outfits, as cheap as i' to as dear as $10 per month, aud most of tho timo they were hired out. Kbo altered them to fit her customers, and freshened them up by new emboli ishmnnls as fast as they showed wear. rir (Hc Hunt (Jo.

Just as she straddled her clumsy old liig across the sticky thing her feathers eacircled it and clung to it like a small jty to his first base bail.

Erskine was always extremely sensitive to a lack ol interest by his audience. "Who got on with that wet blanket of a face of yours beforo I dm?" ho said oneo to Garrow, who wds engaged with him iu a cause. His fu st speech in the House or Lords was ahiunjlating failure, owing to the action ol' Chatham, who, as the speaker Wgan, took up a pou and made a few notes as it with the intention ol replying, but alter listening a few moments, he dashed pen aud paper uimn tho floor with a contemptuous smile. This indifference real or pretended, comxletely upset Erskine, whoso "voice faltered; ho struggled through the remainder of his ;iieech, aud sank into his scat dispirited, and shorn of his fame." Burke was also extremely sensitive.
