DECATUR, ADAMS COUNTY. INDIANA, OCT. 1.4, 1880.

WHLEBa l lovb-sto- ? j RY. I'.Y THE M THOR OF ‘•THE MODERN SIK LAUNCi LGT.” ciiAi'i 1.1: hi ,’i: - Pavcnant went tlivugh her ci. .pi. I. she went through everything else, with gtaeef ulness and sue 1 ct ss. Ihe people weo looked upon I , the game scientifically were charmed ; with her interest and knowledge of its points, and those who regarded it | • merely a-, a game . found timp to charmed with her beautiful face and ' spirited comments. Once or twice,, during theeveuing. she glanced toward Car ISeyutour with a quick searching in her eyes. . ho is- he ?’ she asked of Tom Uliiinth. es site sent the senator’s bail spinning across the lawn. -The slender man, with the blonde mustache. 1 | n.enn." "t on t you know him ? asked Tom, i , a little sit.prised. "That's Carl Sey- L . tnour.” "Au artist, is he not ?” said Kate, I , eoolly. -Mind where you send tha ball. "Yes. Painted ‘Ulysses and the Syrens -that picture there was such a < furor about.” j "1 remember. Quite a celebrity, 1 t should imagine, and she went on with , her croquet. * , Half a dozen times in the course of s thf* tlffprnnnil f’url on M 1

me afternoon, Lari beyinour passed her. nd always with such a cool, careless lace, that she could not fail to notice it—another woman might have been annoyed. Not so Kate Davenant. She knew better than to feel displeasure at an indifference which she was certain to overcome. Perhaps it pleased her a lit le. At any rate, it piqued her curiously. But, at last, on his way to recover a truant ball, Carl passed her as she stood in a little knot of admirers, laughing. There was a wonderful silver tone in her laughter, and | something in it struck Carl Seymour. when he heard it, with an odd sense of remembrance. Where had he heard | the laugh before ? Then he turned and looked at her face. His glance did not seem to trouble her ; the fringed, purple eyes swept him from head to foot, and then Miss Davenant took up the thread of her conversation. lie had never seen such eyes as those but once before ; and his memory went back to the rock-bound shore, and the sweet child face so like, yet so • unlike this crirl'j —tbo fann of the child-love he had called Kathleen Mavourneen. He stood at some little distance listening to her and looking at her. The rose-red fluttered on her cheek, and the soil., large eyes opened and drooped . The usually grave senator gazed at the fair face entranced, and listened for j every ring of her laugh, as he 1 j would have listened for the notes of a <I pi imti donna. There was a curious con- • ZT 1 Ct ’ • 1

test going on in Carl Seymour’s mind. He v - wondering whether .Miss Dave riant attracted or repelled him. The sweet flower-face struck every artistic t ;ste ; the memory in the silver laugh touched him lie knew not how ; but then again name a remembrance of the stoi ie- lie had heard, stories which to a proud, fastidious man seemed almost terrible. It might be a beautiful woman who wore Tom C lath's flowers and dazzled proud men with her smiles, but was it a true one ? Others might have been content with the rose-leaf tints and star eyes. Carl Seymour was not. He was a man apt to boa little sarcastic and severe upon women of the world : and as he watched Kate Davenant. he thought of the marquise again, and wondered if the application was not correct. ‘ You are just a porcelain trifle, Belle Marquise J Just a rning ot puflk and patches, Made lor madrigals and catches. Net for heart-wounds but for scratches. Oh, Masquise ! •last :i I -ty fHiuela.u mile, ucile Maiquise ; I’ate it.die, rose Du Barry Quick verbal point and parry : Clever, Certes—but to marry--No Marquise!” He was thinking over this as Miss Davenant chatted with the enamored senator, and laughpyl pqwally at poop Tom Griffith’s somewhat far-fetched

witticisms- He was thinking about it when, at last, she took the senator's ■ arm and came toward Carl's side ot the 1 i lawn. He was an elderly this B en I ~tpi’ , mid like most elderly bachelors. I; j quite susceptible, and felt more than I senatorial dignity as he crossed the 1 t ground with the evtpiisitply gloved h “Sti wp°ii bis portly lai m. and Kate s voice softenened deferentnlly. One of the fair hands was ui.gloved, and after the trailing dress had swept by him. glancing tjpwuwuvd. ;c If) Si.ivine.tj? ;u,Mgiit .ight of a deli-iy-tiuted trifle of pearl-gray glove lying at his feet. He took it tip. Such a tiifio as it w:i< ' Saen a very bijou ki t and silver-thread embroidery I Just with the very moulding of th; soft lingers, wflft the very faint fraI p*l4i‘ev f iiiicß floating ever it. Carl smiled a little with a half sensation of p'h .sure, it was so pretty. A few <l- t ■ him t • Miss Davenant s side und a few words attracted , her attention. ■ Pardon me '. he §tq4i hoWlfitt- But you 'gqyg io»t youc glove. 1 ' just a faint flutter of red on her cheek as she took it from his hand, just a soft uplifting of the darlf fwtyed eyes. -J thank you I ' »tw said, rviurmgg i hi« bow. mid then she passed him. Only two words, and such simple ones but it was the Circe wMo kfid 1 : uttered them, and in the sweet, sweet voice which had touched so many hard • hearts before. It had hardly dccupied 1 a minute s time : and when she pa-uwl on she seemed to have f" r g““''"„ H « and the voice that h*i licitg- | tor

t „r. u,li; le spell buuno, in.spite of ibis sarcasm. Ih- forgot, about the ■ ii’ .r |ui e.■; | sfo.nl still, looking after •I ■ iib t wo;,dec at their calling her 1 th,- iJirrn-.” 1„ said. Ami then -he old i v ei;..‘ iy e;s|:,e b.u-k to him. ami then ; lie m: , -F lowly, th .ugh smiling at his f.mcy. "K-ihl- on Mavourneen ! Kathie n Mavonmeen ! ’ • he sj ,-e tl|e)e. ha saw an elderI ly lady coining from the house, leaning on a gentleman's arm. A once : handsome woman, perhaps a belle in i her time, lint just now suggestive of a | dowager, in ttin >• re and yellow leaf, j ami at the same time a woman with a i g eat deal of haughtiness in her car I riago. and < >->l speculation in her cool, han i ■ inn eye-. He knew who it was. H- hail seen Mis. Mortiinoie Montgomery before, and guessed rightly that 1 ' 'ten d t torn her aeijuaintauee with him. Mrs Montgomery under sto,,<l pre.-i- -ly how much a celebrity was w- th in the fashionable worldj ,im] -I r-y-ds the Syrens' had done ;■ -..'-at de..: toward earning Carl Seymour a name. SI e stopped on reaching him. and introduced her companion, the gentlem 'i whom Alice Farnham had spoken of as ‘our lite.rary lion.' "Lipns, both of you !" she said, nodding her handsome old head. "How is it tl. it you have not been roaring this eveni'hg Mr. Seymour ? When we are so fortunate as to secure a lion in our menagerie of society, we consider ourselves cheated if he don't exhibit his

‘ leonine characteristics. ’ "But I am such a very young lion. ■ laughed Carl. -Quite a cub, one might say. And wouldn't my roar be a little • too mild among the full grown quad- ■ rupeds." ’ Mrs. Montgomery laughed, too. She liked men who were apt, and self-pos-1 scssed - and this gentleman seemed to ’ be both. "You are too modest,' »she said. "But I must not forget what I came here for. Why don’t you eall on us ? Kate saw your picture last s< ason, and I has been talking about it ever since. Art and artists are her hobby. She has been collecting gems for the last three years.” Carl smilingly accepted the invitation. Pate had certainly taken him in hand, and fate rules us all. When Mrs. Montgomery carried her lion back to tin house, she also carried Carl's promise that he would call upon, her the next day. Kate will be delighted to see you. she said, with a smiling nod. "Goodeveuinjx !” ATter that my hero went over to Alice Farnham, and chatted with her until the company dispersed, and then he returned home and looked at the picture of little Kathie, wondering at the resemblance between the two pairs of tender eyes. Eleven the next morning found him at Mrs. Montgomery’s. He sent up his.card, andjwas waiting her appear- | ance. He looked round the room

caielessly. Traces of -Kate ' here and there—in the pretty work table, on ' which lay an open book with a filmy ’ handkerchief flung upon its pages, and ■ in the pearl ua.d-eaae, with a tasseled ■ glove lying by it— the very glove he 1 had picked up the day before. He saw it, and smiled. There were many paintings hung against the walls, and. ' suddenly one of them catching his eye, 1 he arose uttering an exclamation of ■ surprise. It was a very small picture, but its frame was heavy and rich in the extreme, and the subject a little ‘ Weird and wild -just a strip of rocky ' shore, with gray, tossing waves sweep ' ing into a little cove, and heavy, purple clouds glowering above. Spirited, very, and perfect both in outline and ' coloring. Evidently the work of no unpracticed hand. But it was not this which had given rise to Seymour’s exclamation. The scene was the most familiar of the many connected with the by-gone ro> inanr-e, [t was the little bay, on the coast of .Maine, where Kathie s red cloak had always been his signal among the locks. When Mrs M.mimmiery entered, ho was still standing before the painting ; and after the first salutations were over, he began to quefli tion her. -May I ask whfro It Same from '?” ■ he said. ‘T thought no one knew that spot but myself.'

■Kate painted it,'’ replied her ladyship, a thought indifferently. ‘- She is always dashing off some little wild seem; m other. I don't know where ! she gets them from. Ah, Kate 1 here you are to answer tor yourself. Miss Davenant had just opened the ' door, aqd stood before them with a' treat bunch of red roses in her hand. 1 She came forward and laid them on the table, and. on her auut's introducti ■; extended her hand with the old c 1 >iiug .mile, She was glad to meet Mr Seyqiour. She had made his acquaintance I>y reputation long ago. How I '.mid picture-lovers thank him fur I lyases and the Syrens ? ' There was nothing of effect in her nianner. nothing of uiitcstry to produce an hnli. ‘ion. Simply the grace and eleI gan • of a graceful and elegant woman ’of the world, who desired to please. ■ i knew Ik w to do it.

Carl Seymour forgot this, too. It was hard I to realize that such eyes as these could be false : th.it of this stately, fair-fac-ed girl people had said. "There are men whom her beauty had driven to worse than death. t am telling a story j frankly, and will not profess to hide ! that Carl Seymour was a better man | than Kate Davenant was a woman. The influences upon their lives had been different. The one had seen purity and honor, the other worldlincss and the world. So it was that it was easier for Carl Seymour to believe that he had deceived himself, than to believe that the woman who had seemed true had been deceiving him. That he was bitter against worldliness, I have told you, but the memory of a stately, womanly mother, and a true.

pure-hearted little sister, in his faraway home, made him readier to he - merciful than he would otherwise have ■ been. Kate Davenant, too, was, perhaps, a little truer to herself to-day than she generally was—for there were ' old memories thrilling her as she watched his handsome, cavalier face. She showed him the collection of art pets, of which Mrs. Montgomery had spoken. Forgetting the Circe in her natural pleasure at his familiarity with and interest in them, she lost herself in her animation, and stood with uplifted eyes and soft, rose-red on her cheek, as he warmed into enthusiasm over the art he loved so well. She had seen the grand master-pieces of which he spoke, and knew them as well as he did ; but there were subtle, tender touches in their grandeur and beauty which she had dreamed of vaguely, but which grew into great, glowing truths under his warmth and eloquence. Carl turned upon her suddenly once, and saw something of this earnestness in her face. Years ago he had seen the same rapt expressions before, and its rcprnuuition maue imu ... o breath with a swift heart throb Mrs. Montgomery was delighted. This was a lion to boast of ; and when he left them, her invitations were eyen more cordial than before. ■Kate," she said, when the door had closed behind him. “that man is a genius. What a pity he if so abominably poor. Mr. Coyne tells me he has absolutely nothing to live on but his art.

If it was not for his circumstances, I should say ho was exactly the man you ought to marry. ’ Miss Davenant was toying with a red rose, and she tore it into two pieces, slowly and deliberately, before she gave her answer. ■ I don't think he is, Mr. Seymour is a truthful, honest man, and I am not .a truthful, honest, woman. Besides, as you intimate, intellect and honor were not marketable qualities.” And she tossed the rose from her with a little, impatient, disgusted gesture, and taking her coral-case from the ta ble, left Mrs. Montgomery alone to her meditations. Her aunt shrugged her shoulders. Below, another incident occurred. A* Seymour passed through the hall, he caught sight of a blood-red rose lying upon the floor. It had droped from the handful Kate Davenant had brought into the drawing-room, and because of this he stooped and* picked it up. He hardly knew his reason at the time, but long after he rcmombered it. and re- : n.iwaUtwl. too, the little thrill that ■ passed through him as its rich fragrance floated upward.

, Fine Works of Art For All. Onward, improvement, progress are the watchwords of the hour with the great American people, and in the front • * rank of progressive Americans we find the great Art Publishing firm of Messrs. George dtinson & Co., Portland, Maine. During the year 1879 they sold over two million more pictures than they eVer sold before lii a single yea’/, and the sales for 1880 thus far are much larger than for the corresponding pe-/ . , riod in 1879. It is believed they pay more for postage stamps than any other house, mu only iu.this-couprry* bur in the world at large; we will give someiof the figures, which we have d’I rent from Messrs. Stinson A Co., and I therefore kitdv In l.irtC'-' FHrln* the year 1878 the amount of money that they paid for postage stamps was over fifty thousand dollars. Duringthe year 1879 the amount that they paid for postage stamps was over eighty-sev-en thousand tlollars. For the first eight months of 1880 the amount paid for postage stamps rises seventy-five thousand dollars, and will doubtless go considerably over one hundred thousand dollars for the year. While the amount paid for postage is simply enormous. it must, be remembered in this connection, that only the small order# go by mail, all large orders being sent by express and freight. From the above some idea of the magnitude of their business can be formed. Their trade extends, not only to the most remote parts of the L'nited States and Dominion of Canada, but all over the civilized world. Messrs. Stinson & Co. are not behind the times in understanding the great power of the judicious use of printers ink, and in this connec-

tion we wish to state that during the ■ last ten years they have spent for newspaper advertising over two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Enterprise, industry, and good judgment will accomplish great things, and in the success of this great Art Publishing House we have a striking example of that fact, and now they may. we feel sure, fairly claim to stand at the head of the Art Publishing business in this country. We have lately received four elegant Steel Engravings just published by Messrs. Stinson & Co. Size of each 30 by 40 inches. These plates were engraved in London by well known English masters of Art. and cost, when they came into the owners hands, in Portland, customs duty paid, the great sums of almost thirty thousand dollars. The reader shall have a brief glance at these magnificent works of high art through description. a painting by G. G. Kilburne. Engraved on steel by W. 11. Simons. “His very step has music (n’t, As he comes up the stairs.” The artist has shown in an inimitable manner a mother and beautiful little child at the glad moment of the first

sound of the welcome step of the husband and father. The picture tells its own story an hunderfold more powerfully than may be possible by any words descriptive of it. Second. Rustic thoughts. Painted by W. C T. Dobson, A. R. A. Engraved on stcele by F. Bromley. In the midst of a broad and beautiful land scape, is seen, though half hidden by the foliage, a cottage. A rustic little maiden has gone forth for a pitcher of water. But, lo! What has come over the spirit of her dreams?

The fame of William Tell is world wide, and the nerve, courage, and powerful character exhibited by both father and son in the shooting of an apple on the boy’s head, at the mandate of the tyrant, has fired the hearts *f millions. Pen is powerless to described the scene. -Ready! —every nerve is strained and fixed—a moment of terrible suspense*—the arrow has sped straight to its mark.
