However, ooommiy forhade him to re-fu-ean invitation to dinner; and when, a week after, Mrs. ltrown sent " tier compliment," eU, Mr. lmkirk donned his Sunday suit and went over to l'eaeh House at i precisely. The parlor was full of ladies ; ladies in silks and muslins, with crinoline and flounces. .Mod of them Mr. liu-kirk knew well, and ho looked about in vain for a stranger. Mrs. Hrown'.s note had said: "Mrs. Harlow will bo w ith us." liut which was that economical widow? Trobably the ladv in jrrocn silk near the piano, lie could not remember her face. Suddenly Mr. Huskirk's doubts were set at re.-t. Mrs. ISrown ejaculated: "lcar me, w here is cousin Hetsy ? Mr. Uu-kirk, you must bo introduced to Mrs. Harlow, " and at these words something small and flat emerged from between two portly dames, ami stood N-f ire him. It was aiorv s'uml ud iidci" little woman, w ith a remarkably pretty face, hh.e wure no himps, and her ilres cleared her ankles. The .-leeves were clo-e, and the -kirt had perhaps three breadths in it. The dre-s it- If was if ery plain brown merino, and she wore neither brooch nor bow, only a white linoti collar. IVtor looked approval. everal of the ladies exchanged glances, and a faint irile was lieard ; and, as though by common consent, the two were left tete-a-tete in a comer. "Plea-ant day," said Peter, to coin-r.io::'-' !! eo'uer- itioii. " Plea-ant, but ...Id." "Ah, ves; but I dislike cold weather," sai.i the ladv. " M ui't arce with you, ma'am?" "Uh. that- not it. " I am never ill: but cold weather is so expensive. Lights early, and coals dear," proceeded the l.nly. "Money slips through one's tinker-: and I never wa-te things. " "My ca-o exactly," -aid Uuskirk. "lt" a-t. mi!ii:i; how things -o,t. Now, there is butter say a pound a fortnight." " ii, never eat butter it cots too much," said thel.tdv. "Ah! and suar and tea andcolTee." "If you indulge in such luxuries, w hat can von expect :'" -aid Mrs. Harlow. " Tin y are artificial want-altogether, sothev are," -aid Mr. l'.ti-kirk. "Hut, then. I::i!.it is second nature." lixtravaj: tut habit- ruin many. said Mr. Harlow. 'Oh! I shudder when 1 look at tho-e flounce. uch a wa-te of material." "I've often thought .)," -aid Peter. "And you d in't wear them?" " ," sr.id Mrs. P.ar! w. " I have my sene-, sir. I've no wi-h to die in a work-hou-e. I've had this dress ten years." " Indeed!" said Pet. r. "Andlsujipose some lad'ns buy uie every ten months."' " Kvery ten days," said Mrs. P.arlow. "Oli, I bhih for" my x, Mr. Hu-kirk, I do, imbed!" Peter was ( harmed. lb' bean to think Mr. Hrown riht. The cost of ui h a w ife would a mere trifle, and w hat an eye she would ket p to the oxp, n- s of a household. Kre the evening was over he had decided that it would be cheaper to marry than t ) remain .sinp;le, wen- Mr. Harlow his helpmate. "She'd not only lie sawn: her-elf, but she would check me in my little extravagance," said he. 4Mie would 1 invaluable to mo. She wears one dress ten year. The fates mu-t have nt her to earth for my especial leneiit." So, after due consideration, IVtor resolved to court the economical widow, and that lady bi in; conveniently domiciled at Mr." Prow it's he found every ojportnnity. It wa- a very inexpressive courtship. He jjavc her not a present. Nhe expected none. H? took her nowhere save t church, where neither of thein ever saw the plate, and both were happy. At la-t he propo-ed. She blu-hed arid hesitated, and beeped time to ron-ider. At last ehe said : " I am afraid to say yes, Mr. Huskii k. I like you ; but you arc so terribly extravagant. You drink tea and cotTee, and cat butter, and really I should fear coming to want. 1 should, indeed!" "I! YVhy, I'm the mit economical soul living," said IVtcr. " Kxtriivajjant people always think tli it," -aid the lady. No, I'm afraid to say yes, unless, indeed, you were to make your property over to me, so that I could be sure you would not ruin your

self. Of course that is impo-sihle, and it would le such a can-! that really I 1 could scarcely tie-ire it, even for a gentleman I so much respect." And the economical relict blu-lied and hp-Hated. It was Peter's turn to pause and eon- i siiler. He w ent away to do so, and, re-j turning suddenly to his hoij-c, found his i serving-maid st llinir Iriitiiriir to a man. He disinis-ed her at once, and rushed back to the Widow Harlow's. My money would be safer in your hands than mine," he said, with a moan. "Marry me, and keep me from beinjr ruined!" What the w idow's answer was may lx judged from the fact that three weeks from that day they were united, the t ier-

frymart reoeiin; Jive shillings from Peter, and the In i 1 wertn her brown merino, in the pocket of which she carefully deposited the deeds which made the property exclusively her ow n. "Now for happiness, "said Peter. "No more thiovin;; servants no more waste and a lovely wife into the bargain. , He, ho, he! Peter Huskirk is t ho 'man for luck." And betook his bride home to dineon cold meat and radishes, being absolutely ashamed even to speak of his accustomed mutton chop before so economical a lady. The next morning ho hurried ell to business. " Never waste time, love," said the newly married dame. " Hesides, I've a great deal to attend to; so goodbye." ""Cood-bye," responded Peter. "What a treasure you are, my dear. The washing, I suppose? My mother always washed on Monday." And away ho went, content with himself and all the world. At t" he returned. Horror of horrors! there were ladders against his house, and men upon them. Had there been a lire? Ho rushed up, breathless. "What isthe matter? Who arc those men?" he panted. "Fire! thieves! Oh! I must be dreaming." " Ion't make a noise, love," said a voice from the parlor window. " They're only the house-painters." " House painters!" "Yes, dear. lon't you know the lh:n h proverb, Ac,vit'f paint piy itself?'" Peter breathed again. "Hut the awful expense!" he said. "Hear, dear, vmi should have consulted Hie." He stumbled into the houe, and over the form of a man kneeling in the hall. " Who are yuu ."' he said. In rep'y the person produced a card, on which was printed:

: Oill A Hinder. fpliolnU'ivr. : "And what are you doing?" gapod Peter. Measuring the hall for a new oilcloth, sir," .-aid the man. Peter staggered on. A woman was making up a carpet in the front parlor ; another wa arranging curtains. 1 ! rushed up stairs. There sat another woman, also at work. Again he gasped the question, "Who are ou." "Mrs. Pukitk"s regular seam-tre-s, pleae, sir," -aid the woman. " And w here i Mr. Hu-kirk?" " Here, love," -aid a voice. And there entered, from the adjoining r.ioiii, a lady d:v-od in -ilk and in exp:in-ive crinoline, with bracelet-, brooch earrings and a little lace t ap worth a small fortune. " The furniture is ordered, and the painters are here, and I've engaged all the .servants, Mr. Hu-kitk," said the lady; "and cook wants to know whe!!ter you like Ixi f under or well done. In such things you shall have your choice always, i here w as no time to make a pudding to-day, o we must have ice-. Mrawborrics, too, are only two -hillings a ha-kot." " Mrs. Huskirk, h ive you gone crazy?" cried Peter; "or am I dreaming?" "I'm wide awake, at all event-,' cried the lady. "I've starved long enough, and worn that brown merino until I hate it. 1 aiwavs was fond of dr, -s " "Fond of drc-s!" repeated Peter, " arid loved go.nl thing'." "Loved goiwl thing," repeated the spoiie; and now I'm married I mean to have them." " P.ut if I had-know n-I " began Peter. Wouldn't have inarriil me, I suppose," said the bride. " Well, my cousin, Mrs. Hnovn, told me that, oti know." Peter looked at her. The truth was plain at lat. He tried to sj, ak, but e.tild not. lit) stared at his lady the minutes by the clock, and then m-hed out of the liou-e, muttering, 'Taken in! taken in!" It is said Peter Huskirk never recovered the shock. Against hi will he lived luxuriously eer after; and hi wife atonished the neighborhood by her magnificent attire and grand parties. Hut nevertheless' Peter himself expired in less than a year: and the last words on his lips were said to be " Taken in! taken in!" French Courtship. In France the parents of the int re-ted ones first consider the mntterof their marriage. "lok, Monsieur," says Ma'ma, "here is my daughter, and all her grace-s and accomplishment, and her god heart; and here, also, is the lower I will give with her." "And here, Madame," -ays Mon-ieur, who is very likely her neighbor "i friend, "here is my son, and hi probable inheritance; his education has been what you know; his profcs-ion, and tab lit, what von know, fl-o; a to hi amiability you shall judge, for I'll give vou every opportunity of ob-erving: and moreover, when he manic-, I wnl givej hoy so and so." The youngsters j meet, and, unless they are very difficult to -nit, are obliging enough tofmther1 their parents' plan. And. on my word, I believe them more dutiful in the Old I World than in the New. .V'ow !'sl EarnLtttir. !

Jolly, sup po.-ed sole survivor of the Pacific, was brought here yesterday by the ship Mcs.-enger, in a wretched condition, having been on a raft :i hours Infore Wing picked up. He says the Pacific collided w ith some other vessel, whoso light he saw; but in his interview with (lilkey, captain of the Messenger, lasting VI hours, he made no mention of the lights of the vessels, and some think him laboring under a hallucination as to that. Kxperienced navigators think it more likclv she struck a sunken rock. JELLY'S STATr.MlNT. I took cabin pas.-ago on the Pacific from Victoria, leaving about '.;l." on the inorning of Thursday, the 4th inst. About 'U0 people were on board. 'The steamer ran all day against a .southeaster; t lie crovv were constantly pumping water into the boat to trim the ship. The boats abaft the paddle-boxes had no oars in them ; the others had. Hetween Sand U in the evening, while in bed, I heard acra-h; felt a shock as if we had struck a rock; heard something fall as if the rocks had fallen. 'The starboard bow hell struck to stop, back, and go ahead. I went en deck and heard voices say, "It's all right, wo have struck a vessel." I saw several lighU at a disiar.ce; do : think they were colored, but I paid little attention. I returned to the cabin; noticed that the ship took a heavy lurch to port. I went on dock "to the pilot houe; heard sonic one say, "She is making water very fa-t." The Captain coining out of hi room, I asked him if there were any blue lights or guns. He said the bine lights were ill the pilothouse. I got them and burned five. Noticed the engines still winking, but no one at the wheel. I went to the starboard side, forward f the puddleImix. wlure a number of men were living to get the long-boat, hut could not. I went to the short-boat forward and helped five or six women into it. 1 tried to get the boat oil", but could not move it. 'There were almut twenty, women in it. I heard the boats abaft paddles had got oil, but did Hot see , them. I think it was about an hour after the steamer struck when .-he li-tcd ' so much. The port boat was in the ' water, and I wa- in that boat, cut loose ! from the davits. 'The lwat filled and j tiiriied over. I got on her bottom, and helped several Up with inc. lllillle-' diately after the steamer seemed to ; break in two fore and aft. 'The smoke-1 stack fell and -truck our boat, and the -teamer stink. I think about all the Mono n wi re in our boat, and 1 fear they were all ilrow ind when the boat up-et. 'This was about 1" in the evening. The night was not dark imr the sea very rough, but there was a fresh breeze. Afterwards I left the bottom, of the boat, and with another man t limbed on top of the pilot hou-e floating near. Next morning I got some lite-prcscrv rs floating near the house, and w ith their ropes la-hed myself and companion to the liou-e. I saw three rafts; the tir-t had one ninii on it; the next had three men and a woman. I could not make out the other for the distance, except that there were people on it. I think we were ." or 4') miles south of Cape Flattery when the vessel sunk. We passed a light on Tattoos I-land b tvveen t and in the evening. I and my companion were on the pilot-hou-e all nf Triday until I p.m., when In: died. I cut hiiu loose, the seas running very high. All day the waves were wa-hing over u-. Soon after ho died I sighted a x esel, called, and heard the people mi the other rafts calling, but the vetd did not come near. On Friday night there was but little wind until timming, when the wind and sea rose. I was then within a mile of shore, at Vancouver I-laud, and .sighted two Vessels ni the American shore, which p t-scdon. About lM a. in., on Saturday, the Me-scliger picked me up. (Signed) llEMlY d. Jr.LI.V. ilitAT 1. XI' IT KM KNT prevailed in this city on hearing the news. The telegraph and newspaper ofliee and the Men h ants' x liange w ere In sloped by people vv ho had friends and relatives on board. No one seems to know the names of the Hurlbut and Hoi kwcll trollpe, but it is supposed Fannie Marston was one of them, and that oilier-wero performers picked up in th.it part of the country. 'The steamer lo Angeles will be dispatched to save the survivors, if any. Jelly stated informally that then- was no terror or coiifu-ioii on the part of tlie passenger, and that if the boats could hav e been launched and properly manned, and the sailing comparatively sncMith, all would have been saved.
