DECATUR, ADAMS COUNTY, INDIANA. NOV. 18, iBBo.

KATHLEEN’S LOVE-STO-HY. ' BY THE AUTHOR OF “THE MODERN SIH LAUNCI LOT.” CHAPTER VIII. Before Kate had been seated for' five minutes, she sprung up from her | chair and paced the floor backward ; and forward, trying to forget herself. ; Her aunt's sarcasm had been a bitter truth to her, and she felt that she had I almost reached the end of her tether. What had she done ? Nothing wrong, she tiled t» think—noth ng more than she had done a hundred times before, ] only before no suffering had been entailed upon heis If. Now she must ' sulier, as she had made others suffer ; ' now her dainty feel must tread the ( thorny path other feet Lad had trod for her sake. Perhaps her aun- had I been right in saying she was foolish in refusing Mr Crozier, when, two years ago he had offered her marriage If she had married him then by this lime she would have learned to wear : her fetters gracefully, and certainly she would have been spared this pain, her aunt's maxim on love was a concise and striking one, and one which always acted as her text. ; “It is all very pretty to talk about |my dear,” she had said a thousand ' times to her niece. ‘ But whatever motive you may marry from, you may find in the end, that 1 speak truly Years will warm the coldest l"ve to friendship, and cool the warmest te the same sentiment. And Kate at last believed it. For three months she had floated with the current in a sort of blindly deieimiued resistlessness, and now she must put forth her strength and battle against it. Very well. She walked across the floor slowly, listening with a curiously acute sensation to tlie soft rustling of her truling dress and endeavoring to fix her mind calmly. But it was a vain endeavor, ’’’here was no calmness, nothing but chaos, and a sting of self-contempt she had reached the acme oi bitterness Kate Davenant did not pause to think, she would not pause. She loved this man and yet was not true enough to brave j ' sacrifice for bin . She hand herself ( for it, felt a vague scorn through every ■ fibre, and yet had no other 'liotight ’ but dial she was powerless agaoist her self. What do you hmk ot her? You think that Carl Sey n-‘nr uriglit have better loved a true, woman, and that if he lost her, his loss was hardly great. Yes; but ihen think of the, might have been ; hittk o*' the beautiful possintlitie < of truthfulness and faith that hud been crushed out of her life. Try to imagine what she would have been unirantniekd by the world. W’e don't blame a flower fur what th“ ' -nil and the gardiier’s training have 1 made it. Sueh women as these need praying for ; and when you meet such a etie gin her your prayers, because you are a woman yourself, and so should be tender and forgiving. A rap at the door stopped Kate's restless walk, and Lotte entered with a note aud two bouquets. One was of fragrant lemon blossom, white bell syiingte, and trailing with delicate vines; the other, a gorgeous tropical blooming of rare exotics, gloving with wii y crimson, purple, amber and dark, glossy green. Sin knew where the fitst came ficin before she glanced at the laid that accompanied it M . Seymour was not a demonstrative man. and his gifts were so unlike the gifts of others, in the peculiarity of being accompanied only by a slim card bearing his name. Miss Davenant had quite a collect- ; ion of them, and, in aeeordaace with 'some whim, kept them apart from the notes of the slain, locking th cm in ; her jew el case. I ; ‘■W’i-h the rest of my gems,” as she i said, laughingly to Carl on one occa-' , sion. “Who brought the other?” she asked Lotte. Lotte did not know. It was a strange ; i footman ; but here was the note. i Kate opened it with a half amused ' and slightly e, nteuiptous smile. She knew the crest which Mr. Crozier nev- , er lost an < ppoitnnity of displaying , and she knew the hand writing whose | flourishes never failed to suggest busi- , , ness, like blue pills and legal parch- I < went. I j Mr. Crozier was a banker; Mr Croz- I« ierbad some sort of rumored interest ‘ s in the East Indies. Mr. Crozier was j j a millionaire if not a billionaire—some t people even said a trillionaire. Twen- 1 ] ty years ago when Mr. Crozier was a i clerk at Cent Per Cent & Co’s., Mrs. t Montgomery had been in the habit of t looking upon him with the same feeling with which one might regard a minute insect ; but now— ah, now I Mr. Crozier was a sort of modern Midas, only in the more comfortable way. Oh. ye sons of man ! ‘‘John Crozier,” the note was signed ; and even the curly tails of the capital letters held a suggestion of unlimited wealth, giving one a very 1 pleasant rentation of the ease with w hich John Crozier could sign a check. • It made Miss Davenant smile. Once upon a time the housekeeper had shown her a butcher’s account, and she recollected as an amusing coincidence that Ephraim Brisket s style of 1 Caligtaphy was not unlike her adorer’s. ' But then Ephraim Brisket was not a billion. “You have no need to go down • stairs again,” said the young lady Lt > Lotte. “I am ready to be dressed ; now.” Lotte went about her work briskly She was a merry little maiden with languishing eyes and scarlet lips, and i tasty as a 'airy, understanding how to. manage to advantage every changing; of Miss Davenant's delicate face. Kate ■ always gave herself into Lotte’s hands, i with a careless confidence that each . cottuoe she turned out would be more I

j exquisite than the last. When she had finished dressing mademoiselle’s heavy braids, she bent over to the white bouquet, and drew from it a spray of waxen japouicas and a pale green vine. Then Miss Davenant lifted her hand and quietly pushed them aside. Lotte was only a lady’s ■ maid and could not understand why Mr. Seymour’s flowers should be rejected tonight. Miss Davent bad worn them all the summer, and bad smiled and blushed at the quick witted girl’s tact. Now shedid not blush. ■ Lotte almost fancied that she grew a shade paler as she pushed them aside. | “Not those, this eventug,’ she said quietly. “I am going to wear your ! favorite black lace, and you know scar- , let is the most b coming aecompaniI ment Take something from the other bouquet.” i Lotte’s languishing eyes opened very wide but she said nothing. ft was not usual for Miss Davenant. to iuterlere with her tastes. She must have quarreled with the fair-faced Monsieur with the divine mustache. Alas! When Kate made her appearance in the parlor, her aunt experienced a feeling of relief. Kate had evidently recovered from her ‘blues,’ and was going to be sensible. The rich black lace swept in a yard of train upon the carpet, and the thorough-bred throat and shoulders, and superb ed through it whitely like bits of perfect statuary. Her face was nothing but dazzling white and vivid earnation, and the scarlet; cardinal flowers in the rich brown braids flung out every delicate tint artistically. Mrs. Montgomery made no remark. She knew better, and besides, she recognized the flowers and was satisfied 'hat her sarcasm had struck home. When they entered Mrs. Farnham’s drawing-room, the Circe created a sensation, as she always did. Some poetical adorer had said of her that she was a tropical blossom constantly unfolding new leaves, each petal more beautiful than the last. H o it was that piople w o had seen her before, were anxious to see her again, and those who had never seen her before were anxious to behold the woman of I whom rumor said so much. Only a ! few moments and the celebrities began ' ■to form a little cluster around her. I ' Fred Brandon was not there ; but Tom Griffith was, looking pale and cadaver- i ous as any modem Hamlet; and then thi r<- was a thousand and one others, who stopped in their passage across the room to catch a tone of the sweet ■ voiceor a gleamof the exquisite smile. Her eye» wandered over the assetn- , bly in a languid search for somebody. Carl seldom joined the train, and someHi'v she had learned to watch for hi* coming, as she never watched for any- ' one else. At last, when the eyes 1 found him, the soft, regular heart beat quickened a little. He was leaning against the marble mantle, looking at her with the old calm searching in his face. He had looked at Iter a thousand times before with just the same thought, but now she could not meet his gaze fearlessly. And her eye-lids drooped. She wondered if he had noticed the flowers in her hair, and, if he noticed them, how he had accounted for them. She felt as if their crimson burnt her ’ cheek ; and when one of the glowing leaves touched her cheek she shivered. Yet, in the meantime she fluttered her rose leaf of a fan, and lifted her soft, serene eyes to Tom Griffith’s face, and smiled him into a seventh heaven of delight. “The ■ Grand Mogul' has come back, Miss Davenant,” the young man said at last. (The ‘Grand Mogul’ signified Mr. Crozier). She shrugged hi r white shoulders and laughed. The ‘Grand Mogul' was a sort of lion, as regarded bullion, and everybody knew him. Society discussed his millions and courted him. Years before society would have pronounced him a herculean snob, but now society knew better and received him as a respectable fact, without making any inquiries. “It is fortunate to be the Grand Mogul,” said Kate. “But where is he, Mr. Griffith ? I understood we were to meet him this evening.” Mr. Griffith did not know. He had not seen him as yet. And then he stopped short, and looked down at the fair face as if a new thought had 1 struck him. People had a habit of speculating upon Miss Davenant, and poor Tom who was more in love than the rest, speculated with more interest. Rumor said that John Crozier, Esq., was looking out for a wife ; and Rumor also said that it would not be John Crozier, Esq.'s fault if eventually, his home did not find a mistress in Mrs. Montgomery's beautiful niece. Now Torn Griffith believed in this Kate as implicitly as if she had been an innocent debutante. If, at last she married John Crozier she would be quite content to anathematize her aunt as the root of the wrong, and regard the Circe as a heart broken sacrifice. So 1 now, as he noted the feverish sparkle , in the girl's eyes, and the impatient i ring in her voice, he felt something like pity for her and showed it in his bright honest face. I wonder if you will understand me if I tell you that Kate Davenant felt a sort of anxiety about the absence of her quondam j lover? She did not quite understand the feeling herself, and only accounted | for it as being a wish that the first I meeting was over. But at last Mrs. Montgomery wppear- ! ed, keeneyed and stately, and a faint j color showed itself on Kate s cheeks. I a.i she recognizid the gentleman her; ladyship piloted with such evident sat-j isfaction. He was a tall, burly man; ‘ so tall and burly, indted, that lie ciuld not fail attract attention. Neither j>articularly Laudsone, nor particularly unpn possessing, but with the l ull-dog business-like looking face which is peculiar to the same class.

“Ah I here she is !” said Mrs. Montgomery, catching sight of her niece. Kate, my dear, htre is Mr. Crozier.”

There was nothing of the heartbroken sacrifice in Miss Davenant’s manner, as she greeted the gentleman with the old soft smile and graceful air. To tell the truth she was so perfectly the Circe that Tout was not a little astonished. Mrs. Montgomery had been talking to Mrs. Crozier, and like a wise matron had given him some little encouragement which he would not have been likely to receive from Kate, so he felt pretty well at ease. He was cot a sentimental man, and besides, he could afford to be uff-bsud and indifferent. He had pt< h m i to Kate two years ago, because he ■ ... d an aristocratic, handsome wife and she was the handsomest and most aristocratic he could find. He had made his money, and like the generally of men like him who have done the same tiring on the same principle had a due sense of its power and importance. If he could not marry Kate Davenent he could marry somebody else, but still he would rather have Kate Davenant. There would be more eclat and triumph about sueh a conquest. Kate knew’ this as well as other girls like herself knew it, and knew also that she who wore the billions must win them, and so as Mr. Crozier seated himself at her side, she turned her aristocratic face toward him and smiled at him just as she had smiled at Carl Seymour before. “Well,” said Alice Farnham, in the course of her chatter to Carl, “if Mrs. Montgomery hasn’t taken that abominable Mr. Crozier to bore Kate. They do say he wanted to marry her though I don’t know how true the report is. I wonder if she would accept him ? I know those flowers she is wearing came from him. Mamma’s main told me so.” Carl smiled as he looked across the room ; but the next moment the smile died away. He had not noticed the flowers before, and as he caught sight of them an unaccountable chill struck him. She had worn his flowers heretofore, and now the red petals drooped and kissed her white tnroat as she bent forward, her eyes a little downcast, talking to the millionaire. I have said before that Mr. Seymour was not a demonstrative man, nevertheless, he bit his lip fiercely as he turned to Miss Farnham again. “Mr. Crozier is considered a good match.” the young lady went on complacently. “And somebody told me that Miss Davenant ” But just then the stir and bustle diowned the rest of her sentence. The company were proceediug to dinner and Carl saw Mr. Crozier rise, bowing, and then Miss Davenant’s hand was slipped into his burly arm,*and they passed out of the room together. “How much would you give for Seymour’s chance now ? said Brandon to the Loftus o.racle. The captain had been fastening his glove, and the button had burst from the kid and come off in his hand. He looked across the room at Carl Seymour, and then at the last sweep of the Circe’s lace train. “Look here!” he said, giving the broken fastening a cool toss into the air. “I would not risk that upon it.” And the button fell upon the carpet and rolled away.

TMlmafi'e on C'lilhlren. Dr. Talmage, yesterday morning preached on “Modern Methods of Educating Children.” He spoke of the unnecessarily long hours of study leading to ill health. He said : “There are many schools in this country that are preparing the men and women of the future where the preparation is so severe that ly the time the education is finished the child is finished. There are tens of thousands of children educated into imbecility, so that next door to many of these establishments they ought to have asylums. The effort is : to push, crowd, cram, stuff, aud jam j until the child's intellect is bewildered,' and health gone, and memory wrecked. There are girls of 10 studying Algebra, and boys of 10 studying Trigonometry, and delecatc children battling with the Greek lexicon; and then the doctor is called in and medicine is administered. I will tell you what is the matter. They are finishing their education. [Laughter.] There are children who rule in a family. Their high chairs are the thrones, and their rattles are the sceptres and they make up a Parliament where father and mother have no vote. [Laughter.] They grow up to be miscreants. The boys call their fathers “the old man” and “the governor,” and me mother is called “the old woman” [Laughter.] Such children never learn to respect authority. Ou the other hand, too great rigor must be avoided. We must remember that when we were children we were nut all little Samuels. [Laughter.] Our parents were not feerful lest they could not bring us up because of our premature itoodness. [Laughter.] You can't scold or pound your children into nobility of character.

POOR I'OXTO'S DEATH. _ Tin Sfoij ul a Dog Mho Died ol a aiioken Heart. [Atlanta Connitution.] Dr. Martin, a gentleman living on Decatur st., tells the Constitution a remarkable story about a bull-dog who actually died of a broken heart. “You remember,” said the pleasant Doctor, “that about two months ago my father-in-law, .'dr. W. H. Harvill, who had reach 1 a green old age, died. H ell. you may or may not know that l my father-in-law owned at the time'of , his death a very fine bull-dog—a huge, j fat sleek fellow, who went by the name of Ponto. lor months and months before his death the dog was constant companion of my father-in-law. There was something almost human in the devotion of the dog to his master, and, as a natural consequence, the waster was particularly fond of the dog. The daily movements of the old gentleman, lor a long line before his last illness, were as regular as those of a clock, and Ponto followed him as surely as his very shadow. They were simply inseparable. When my father-in-law, as was his custom, took his morning walk up Decatur street Ponto was always by his side; when, toward noon, he walked out the same street to his plantation, a mile and a half in the country, Ponto was his companion; when he returned and took his accustomed seat here in front of my store to rest Ponto curled up before his chair and patiently waited until dinner time, when he would follow the old gentleman to the house up there, and after the meal was over would watch by the side of the sofa in the hall, where my father alwa>s took his afternoon nap. When the old man died Ponto took his place by the eoffin, and did not budge until it was taken from the room. Then he got up and followed it closely to the hearse, and slowly followed the hearse to the grave, l onto came back to t e house a changed dog. Every nigh _e lay upon his rug in the porch and aned most piteously all night Jong.

“I have never lea any expression of human sorrow that s half so plaintive and touching a .he moaning of that dog, as night after night he writhed upon that rug. It was enough to molt the hardest heart. Every day found him making the rounds just as he used to do before the old man died. He would walk slowly up the street, and after awhile pass down the other side, on his way out to the plantation. He would come back to the store, and, after lying under that chair a few moments, would get up, look into my face in the mos, pleading manner, and then pass into the back yard as if in search of something. Then he would go up to the bouse, and after taking his place by the sofa in the hall, suddenly spring up and walk through my father-in-law’s bedroom. He was looking for his dead master. The family let him have his own way, and I did all in my power to console him, but all in vain. I tempted him with the choicest meat, but he refused to eat. I offered him the warmest milk; he would not drink. He went around with his head down, the very picture of sorrow. He dwindled away almost to a skeleton, staggering around daily to the places visited by his master in life, and at night giving vent to his distressful moaning. But five weeks after the old man died Ponto came dragging his lank and -eak body down the street—the same street which he had traversed so many bright mornings with his master 1 When he got by the fence he stopped and sank upon the ground, I ran to him. and lifting him tenderly in my arms carried him into the yard. I laid him gently on the ground— I wish now I had taken him into the house and placed him in the old man’s room, for (and the kind Doctor turned his head—there was a tremcr in his tone) for he was dead I”

The gigantic floating palace, the Livadie, made, in passing from Cork to Gibraltar, upward of seventeen miles an hour, while there was a total absence of any disagreeable motion, her “pitch” being but one degree. This may lead to great change in ship building. It is wonder how short-lived is Parliamentary fame in England when the prominence it gives at the time is considered. Thirty years ago Col. Sibthorpe and Joseph Hume were names as familiar in the United Kingdom as Gladstone or Disraeli. To-day not one man in a hundred knows who they were. At a county court held in the county of Durham, England, the ether day, the learned Judge denounced the defendant in a case as a “d—fool and illconditioned vagabond.” This strong description seems fully justified by the evidence; but such language is scarcely indioative of a mind of judicial tyThe idea of sending over the furniture that has beeu manufactured out of the old Arctie ship Resolute, as a present from the Queen of Great Brittain to the President of tho United States, by a man of war, has been abandoned, and it will go as an ordinary pared by a mail steamer, and will be presented to the President without any fuss by the British Minister. Boston is to have a new sewerage system. Low intercepting sewers are to be made along the margins of the city, to receive the flow from those already existing, and to empty into one great main sewer, which leads through a pumping station on the coast to Moon Island, in the harbor. The accumulation is at thia point to be let out into the ocean at the beginning of ebtide. So many tenants on the Duke of Manborough's Oxfordshire property have given up their farms, that he has over 5,000 acres unoccupied and thrown on his own hands. Many other large landlords in the country arc in a similar predicament, and in Warwickshire, Gloucestershire, and Wilshire things are even worse. In fact, the number of acres now unoccupied in England is almost incredible. The Russian Crown Prince, under whatever title be may assume tho active government of his imperial heritage, co-regent of other, is generally expected to come forward as a radical reformer at home, and as a rigorous supporter of the Panslavistic programme abroad. His antipathy to all German men and things is no less notorious than bis sympathies with the attractive qualities of the French nation.

A very singular book has just been published in Germany. It purports to be written by a lady to whom the old Klug Leopold of Belgium was married secretely about 1827, on the condition that if he were called to a throne the marriage should be null and void To this the lady consented; but she now not only discloses the fact, but gives a detailed account of the transaction, and of her married life with Leopold.
