KATHLM’ LOVE-STO-RY. i BY THE Al THtIH OF "THE MODERN SIR LAVNC LOT.” CHAPTER IV. After this first visit, there came a change into Carl Seymour’s manner of living. The world saw more of him, and heard more of him, too. for Mrs. Montgomery sounded the praises of her pet-lion far and wide. People liked him. this poor, proud young artist, and courted him. in spite of his poverty. Women liked his handsome face, and were glad to see it qjcerywhere, even liked his high-bred geniality, and were glad to meet him. Select society came to see his pictures in his rooms, and one or two eonnoiseurs made flattering comments ou them. He had not come to Newport, like the rest of mankind, for recreation ; he had come to take advantage of the peculiar scenery, and he worked hard with a cool sort of immovable energy. In his working hours he contracted a habit of sketching Kate Davenant’s face on scraps of and then tearing them up with a half-sneering wonder if he was as weak as the, rest. There was a small bust of Clytie on his mantle piece—a delicate, pure-faced head with shoulders rising from the cup of a lily ; and this star faced Clytie he had bought because he fancied it was like Kate Davenant. There was the same soft dfoop of the lips, the same delicately moulded chin and tnroat. and the same rich," curving ripple on the- hair —the curving ripple one always sees on the heads of Greek statuary. He used to stop and look at it sometimes when he was tired, gaining something of inspiration from the calm snowy race. In society he met Miss Davenant often, and a little instinct of half-recognized familiarity grew up between them. It was a dangerous position he was in, and all the more so Because he was unconscious of his danger. He thought it was only her beauty that attracted him so. He thought his bitterness against the faults people assigned to her wfijild save him and keep him strong ; he th ‘Ught anything and everything, but the truth, «nd so blindly allowed the current of events to sweep him onward to the general vortex. Mrs. Montgomery had taken a wonderful fancy to him, and exhibited her preference as she never exhibited preference for others. When she met him in society, she would offer him a seat at her side, and give him the full benefit of her experience, talking to him with an odd brilliance, and apt sarcasm which was truthful and world-reading beyond measure. ■‘l like men who have their fortunes ’ to carve out,” she said, on one occasion laying her handsome hand on his shoulder as she looked at a picture that rested upon his easel. “I am-tired of people who are born with the silver spoon. Kate is just such a woman as you are a man." Carl laughed a little and asked how Miss Davenant was like him.

“In het; manner of thinking," said Mrs. Montgomery. “And in her haughtiness and self-reliance. Not that she shows her characteristics. She is too fond of popularity for that and society keeps her within bounds. And so Kate was fond of popularity and admiration. Carl thought of “la teZZi yiurquise" again, and forgot to look at the Clytie once that day. But in the evening he called upon Miss Davenant. He had not intended to do it at first, but when his stroll brought him opposite Bay Y’iew he changed his mind, and concluded to make the visit. There was a quaintly carved balcony before the back dia-iug room window and Kate had stepped out upon i , and was w.i’chiiig the sun set over the low hills toward the fort. She did not know that Seymour had ent-red. She wore a him vaprous white dress, and ruches of delicate white laee closed round throat and wrists. A great gol-den-hearted lily rested against the thick, dark puffs of her hair, and the last vivid shower of sunbeam floated round her in a light which was almost misty in its intensity. She was bend ing forward, leaning upon the halus- . trade, and looking out far away as if she had forgotten herself. Her lips were a little parted, het eyes softly ; dilated. The same weariness rested u on her i red lips, with a bitter curve, that said a great deal to the man who watched her. Little Kathleen s face had never been so sad a« this ; but .n someWay |he felt as if he was near her now. What was she thinking of ? This was not the woman man called the Circe. He stood in unobserved silence for awhile, and then some unintentional movement attracted her attention, and she stalled and turned toward him, and then it was that he saw what h« k “ a . not vbservea before. T*"— * * ere uu ’ l

i shed tears in her eyes ; the fringing i lashes were quite wet. One mom en she was quite embarrassed, but the next she recovered herself, and came forward with extended hand, comparatively self-possessed, but still not entirely herself. “I beg pardon, she said, smilingly •'I did not know you were here. I was watching the sunset, and sentimentalizing. thinking of a scrap of poetry. I have somewhere seen. ‘ i’u- z>’ 1 -i s lots; sha 1 h’s ulori o’er ihe sea ; Ch Jreanis ofe*rli»r y milt c.nne bulk Come back to me.’’ He glanced down at her, wondering a little “Such thoughts come to ns al), sometimes.” he said. “And, perhaps, these softened moments redeem some of our pas' sins." “Y es." she said, dreamily, looking toward the sunset again. “I was thinking how full our lives are of useless • nging and vain regret. I was thinking that if I could only be a little child again— "tier voice broke off in a sigh which was a half sob. Then she began again suddenly : "I dare say you think I am weary : but after the first fresnness is worn off, the world is—the world, you know : and profit , and loss becomes the rule we worldlings calculate by. I was think- , ing about this when you came, and— , forgot myself. lam glad it was you who surprised me, Mr. 'eymour," with , a soft, frank laugh, “and not my aunt. | I am not often sentimental, but when I . am, I don’t wish my matter-of-fact rel- ] ative to witness the demonstration." j Carl smiled a little. He could nut t understand that feeling easily. ( ■ You wish to be a child agoin,” he ( said, after a silence. “May I ask y- u , where your childhood was spent ?’ j Her color deepened. 1

‘ Yes," she said, at last, in a low voice "The little picture, which interested you so, was one of the most familiar scenes of my childhood. I spent al least nine years of my life there "I am glad to hear it,” said Carl. “It happens, strange to say, to be the scene of the one romance of my life." “Mr. Coyne told tile about it,” said Miss Davenant. Lwrtictbj. I'wr Utile Kathleen I" “tt by, poor little Kathleen?” he asked, scanning her curiously. “She was a very happy child in those days." “Bu she must be a woman now. Let me see, as old as I am. Imagine you< little charmer a fisherman's, or sailor's wife, nth a Stentorian voice! Did you love her, Mr. Seymour ?” The first part of her sentence was light and jesting, the last seemed the result of sudden impulse, and her sweet voice sunk almost tremulously, as she asked the question. All the blood in Carl Seymour's body seemed to rush to his heart. Doubt and certainty had been battling in his mind, and at the last speech, doubt seemed almost wholly overruled. “Love her ?” he said, with something like passion in his voice. “Love her ? I love her still. My purehearted, innocent-little Kathleen was the first love of my life ; sometimes I think she will be my last.' Miss D venant made no reply at first, but after a silence she spoke again, is if meditatively. ‘ I am glad you have not forgotten her. I like to think someone has loved her truly. 1’..0r little Kathleen ! (I have always fancied she must have been lonely.) But if you were to meeF her no-, Mr. Seymour, with the changes of the past years upon her, do you think she would be Kathleen Mavourneen to you still ?”

’Yes," he said. “Kathleen Mavourneeti forever.” "If—if Suppose that circumstances had made her a woman of the world, a woman whose life had been full of worldly scheming, and who was culled vain and heartless—what then?" "She would never be that,” he said, -“never that wholly. lam willing to trust her. Kate had taken the lily from her hair, and was pulling it to pieces flinging the white petals over the baleoi y. ai d watching them as they fluttered softly to the ground. They say truth is stranger than fiction,” sh said ; “and I believe it isIf I were to tell you I know something of your little Kathleen. Mr Seymour." “Kate, my dear," broke in a voice from behind them, “is it fair that you ■diould monopolize Mr. Seymour altogether ? It is my impression that he called to see me, »nd. besides, Mr. Colycinth is waiting for you. Have i you forgotten your promise to him?" Kate turned round w.ith a calm, un- ' shaken composure. I “Certainly not." sh- “Vou will excuse ' ,r Seymour. I prom 1 i...i m drive with Mr. Colycinth. this evening. Carl bowed, and turned to the aunt.

■ I lie did not remain long, however, lit was moved and excited as he had nov er been before in his life. What if. al last —at last he had found his childlove again. To some men the boyish romaneq would have been merelt n amusing incident, pleasant to look hind; dpon : but to Carl Seymour it was an earnest truth, and might, vet rule liis whole life. As he strolled homeward he thought of it all. Ho could remember now how the memory of the innocent eyes and pure lips had restrained and comforted him : how he had dreamed of the childish face that had once nestled against bis breast. The soft, distant sound of the waves brought back to him the time when Kathleen had fallen asleep in his arms, and he had carried her over two miles of the shore, looking down at her. and wondering if ever woman or child was so fair as this little maiden. Mark you, it was not o! Kate davenant he was dreaming -it was of Kathleen I)g ilive. The time had not yet come when he could understand that he loved the woman for what the child had been. Now and again, something rose up before him vaguely, some thought which tried to connect this woman of the world, this Circe with his .childdarling ; but in some way he could not make it clear to himself, and so wandered back almost unconsciously to the old romance.

The last sunbeam had faded, and the twilight set in as he reached the Ocean House. Gerald Colycincth's carriage at that moment dashed by, and Miss Davenant, in a pearly silk, and a fairyhat, waved her exquisitely gloved hand to him and smiled. He found Brandon waiting for him Poor Fred Brandon, in the tightest of boots, and the most remarkable of get ups, and looking most abominable doleful. lie, too. had been added to the Circes train. Like Tom Griffith he had paid ruinous prices for bouquets for Miss Davenant to laugh at. “I've been to Bay V r iew,” he said, dismally. “Got there just in time to see that beggar, Colycinth, drive off with Miss Davenant. Confound it all !” A month ago, Seymour would have shrugged his shoulders, and drawn the corners ot his tianasome mouth : but now he was silent, and—ah! far worse—felt a little curious pang, for which he could not account. Brandon grumbled eloquently. First at the heat ; next at his boots ; then at his tailor ; but. most of all. at that muff of a Colycinth. At last he started up to the window with an exclamation of surprise. “Here’s Carver coming down the Avenue. -Mrs. Montgomery’s footman, you know. Wonder where he’s going to ! Jove ! he’s turning in here.” The correct footman was, indeed, entering the hotel. Carl caught the last glimpse of his blue and drab livery as he passed up the steps. “What can he be coming for ?” said he, carelessly. Before he had finished speaking, a slim, cream colored envelope was handed to him. stamped a scarlet monogram, and directed in a delicate hand. Carl Seymour’s face was generally a calm one, and noticeable for its fine ivory pallor ; but as he opened the note it changed and flushed, and his shapely hand shook a little. The note ran thus : “Dear Mr. Seymour —Of course you have received an invitation for the amateur Concert ? If I see you there to-night, I will show you the woman the world has made of ‘Kathleen Mavourneen.' Kate Davenant.” i (7b le Continuttl.)

A new tragedian is enjoying a boom in the West. He is Thomas W. Keene, formerly a member of the Bowery Theatre Company in this city, and during later years the leading actor of the California Theatre company in San Francisco. He began his career as a star last week in Chicago, playing HamUt Richard 111., Shylock, Othello, and Richeh/e. In the character of Hamlet he wore an embroidered pocket sent to him by Booth, with the message: "May you have as good luck as I have had with it, ’ and as Richard he carried a sword presented by McCHoiiuh. He made a great popular hit. the theatre being packed at every performance. The Chicago Tribttne says: "His personal appearance is not unlike that ot of Edwin Booth, and his elocutionary methods often forcibly remind one of that actor. Frequently he gives evidence of the possessions of that dramatic fire which kindles an audience into euthusiam. In the mechanism of acting he is proficient, but—and ibis arises from a lack of practice in such parts —his etw'jr which he endeavors to reach certain results, is too apparent. Senhor Fontes Pererra Millo. th > ' ex-Prime Minister of Portugal, has negotiated the marriage of the heir ap-; parent to the throne of Portugal with 1 , a Russian Princess.

New Yoi e. <)■ . 17.—The Sw i will to-morrow contain the following d< üblc-'ead ral article : ■The democrats have sustained at. unexpected and mortifying defeat in Indiana at.d Ohio. It is disastrous and may prove fatal. It is silly to make light of it. and idle to try to whittle it away by cunning calculations and adroit figuring. The Democrats are beaten.' badly beaten —whether beaten to death or not is the only question. "It has seemed to ns that the whole democratic campaign was a series of blunders, '’’he party had one man. only one. whose immense strength had been demonstrated on a national field —Samuel J. Tilden. It is the one great pie eminent name in the democratic party. He was a reformer, indeed. as his record in the office of Governor had proved. He was a statesman, as all his public papers, especially his letter declining to compete for the nomination. had emphatically shown Childless, like Washington. he had only his country to love and even the ties of kindred were ruthlessly sundered by’ his stern and unrelenting hand, and if the faintest blush of an improper practice rested upon tnem. So patriotic, so lofty, so convincing was his great letter to the Convention which made the nomination. that the most adroit and the ablest of all his enemies, after reading it. ayowed his disposition to support him.

■ This illustrious man the democratic party thought it could afford to dispense with as a eandi tie. There is a word of one syllable ith two o’s in it which might not inappropriately be inserted. ■The party nominate General Hancock—a good man, weighing two hundred and fifty pounds. But Han cock is not Tilden. •Then, as a crowning act of follythey went into'the State of Thomas A, Hendricks, and took another man for A ice-president. Any name other than that of Hendricks would have been folly enough ; but to go one step farther, rt'ey hurt fn t-.1-r. a nine with the most odious reputation as a skinflint to overcome. There used to be a fellow who made an occupation of butting his head against a rough stone New England wall for twenty-five cents. The Democratic party in making this nomination. resembled him. only, if report be true, they did not get the twentyfive cents. “Now we are for looking the actual facts squarely in the face. We cannot do that without blushing, in defeat and disaster, as well as in victory, has no manhood in his make. “Weare beaten, weareoverthrown, but we are not destroyed. The disaster we have experienced may yet be retrieved. Hancock is not a Tilden in ability, but he is a good, true, patriotic man, of strong sense. He has signed and written in the form of orders, as is believed, some of the most admirable essays on civil and military authority ever issued or composed by mortal man. He never took a bribe. Pure, patriotic and good, he is a fit man for President. As for English, although he may be stingy, he is a firm believer in the rights of man. and in the equal rights of all. If he has not given much mon ey to the canvass, which is the chief charge against him, has he not generously given his name to the ticket ? Besides, what do Democrats and patriots want stith money ? For ourselves,

we are utterly opposed to the unnecessary use of money. We would rather lose the election than carry it by one bribed vote. It that vote giving us a majority could be bought for $329, we should be opposed to the payment of even that petty sum. We sail in with colors flying, or not at all.

The eldest son of a Duke, of a Marquise, or of an Earl, although he remains a commoner, bears one of the titles of his father bycourtesv. These are sometimes changed, but usually the same title is used for several generations. The son of the Duke is commonly the Marquis, of a Marquis, an Earl, of an Earl, a Viscount, but this is not always the case, for instance, the Marquis of Salisbury's second title is Earl of Salisbury ; so in order to obviate confusion, his eldest son is forced to take the third title, which is Viscount Cranbourne.

In commenting on a drinking bout in Scotland, wherein “four respectable and industrious’’ farm servants drank a quart of whiskey apiece, one of whom killed himself, and another threatened to whitewash the walls with a young womans brains, the British Medical Journal admits that there is a reprehensible practice in Scotland of getting deliberately drunk periodically, at certain fairs and markets, but charitably adds, that those isolated occasions are looked forward to as variations in a monotonous existence, for which wives and mothers make preparations. The French Minister of War, with a view to encouraging a taste for horse exercise and to develope a knowledge of horse flesh in the cavalry, has instructed the commanders of this branch of the service, to allow a certain number of officers to take part in horse races and steeplechases.

Chester Dixon, a Choctaw Indian aged 17. killed a squaw. It is believ-. . ed that he was temporarily insane, but no such defense was interposed at hi* trial, and he was convicted of murder. The sentence was that he should be shot at noon on a certain day. In the meantime he w>s allowed to go free, on his pledge that he would present himself at the appointed time to be punished with death.
