BETTER THAN HE SEEMED, -~ A quaint old town was Hereford. Tts buildings were antiquated and its inhabitants clung so tenagciously to the traditions of their forefathers that no more obstinate or exelusive set of landowners could be fouinq ‘in the shire. | [ Scarcely more than 2,000 souls com-prised.-the population, but what they lacked. in numbers was balanced by the extreme respectability of those who lived and carried thémselves as little lords among tlie tenantry. lereford had its banking house. To be sute, it was a diminutive appendage of the big concern in Li\#l(;rpool, but Mr. Sandhurst Tipton, M. P, resident partner, presided over its dignity and lived in the old brick mangsion on the top of the hill, screened from yvulgar gaze by the heavy yew trees that formed a cordon abpbut his retreat. Hereford also had its established church, and its good vicar, Dr. Stole, though an austere man on the cl}urch homilies, could, nevertheless, attimes be as decorously jolly as .the worst of his parishoners, and was a rough rider ‘when the hounds were in full cry. | ' The family of Mr. Sandhurst Tipton consisted of his wife and [two daughters. The former was aj tall, stern looking lady, with enouglfl dignity to have satisfied the most exelusive aristocrat, while the daughters, Augusta and. Cecily, to the disgust of their parents, most unaccg)untzdbly had imbibed notions altogether too plebeian to their nation and birth. | It was Mrs. Tipton who had insisted on their being educated abroad, and it ever since had been.to her a source of lamentation, and her more astute husband, who had opposed the schemé but nevertheless yielded to his wife’s wishes, never failed to remind her that the consequence was the result of her own folly. . ; :

Mrs. Tipton knew this fally. well, therefore she never sought®o gainsay its truth, only she extenuat@ her mistake as best she could, rem§nding her lord that she was educatedat the same institution whither she had sent her daughters, and had come out sans 7eproclic.. . : Precept and expostulation seemed lost upon these wilful girls, and they only laughed at the lectures they received, frequently replying by some club house phrase they obtained, heaven knows where. Two London seasons had failed to eradicate the blemish of their characters, and now Mr. Tipton and ‘wife had resigned themselves to the unhappy conviction that they must patiently endure that which ‘ they could not cure. . ‘ The sisters were out one day,on horseback, and, as was their custom, they were unattended by an escort.— ‘Augusta, who was a dashing horsewos man, was riding near the edge of a wood that was bounded by a thick thorn hedge. On the opposite side was a young man who had fallen asleep reading a book which was lying on the green sward. Atabanter from Cecilly, Augusta put her horse at the hedge and leaped him clean over it~ A cry of pain immiediately. followed, and the young sleeper sprang to his feet, then staggered and fell, with his forehead cut open by tlie hoof of Augusta Tipton’s horse. - ‘The daughter of Sandhurst Tipton possessed a courageous mind. She neither screamed nor wept at the consequence of her unfortunate prank. “Tie your horse and climb over here this instant,” she called to her sister; “I believe I’ve killed a poor fellow.— How perplexing this is, to be sure.” She had sprung from her saddle and knelt beside the bleeding man, while he was all unconscious of:the fair fingers which were twisting a cambrick handkerchief about his temples. Cecily, in conformity to her sister’s: summonsg had scrambled through the ‘hedge, and was doing what ghe could to bring the stranger to consciousness. “He’s handsome—don’t you think 80, Gussa?”’ she asked, gazing on his pale face. ' e Her sister made no reply, but clutched at her vinaigrette and applied it to his nostrils. i j

/It happened that Cecily at that moment spied a letter on the ground, near the book. In an instant she had caught it up and with womanly curiosity was examining %Yhe -superseription.’ It was postmarked. Brussels, and was directed to Mons. Louis Bernier, London. i

Cecily pressed her hand upon her brow, asif in thought, and then hand* ed the letter to Augusta. The latter looked sharply at the superscription, and then remarked: “Oh! that's it.— How strange!” il i “Where did we hear that name?” asked Cecily. “I am certain “we have come across it somewhere.” e “In the newspaper,” replied her sister. “Don’t you remember, a few days since, the announcement of Count Bernier’s son being implicated in that

French plot, and the flight of young Bernier to Belgium ?” ; 7 “True enough,” responded her sister. “Wouldn’t it be rofhantic if our stranger and young Bernier were identical 7 : e Augusta pushed the letter in the young man’s po(:keti none too soon, for he opened his eyes and gazed languidly at-his fair companions. ' . . “Do you feel mueh pain?” inquired Anugusta., “I really cannot express my ‘sorro{?v at having been the author of your accident. It is very strange you did not hear us.” “I was asleep, mademoiselle,” he replied, in a low voice that had just enough of the French accent in it to establish his nationality. A half hour. later and the sisters were sitting beneath a tree, with Louis Bgrnier telling them the story of his life. : : In one of the houses at the outskirts of Hereford, Louis Bernier had found a temporary home with a stout.yeoman named Perry Hawks. [There were very many reasons why he desired obscurity at that moment, and not the least of which was to keep his father, the count, in ignoranece of his whereabouts. He therefore gave an agsumed name, when occasion required it, and had not Augusta boldly charged him as being the son of Count Bernier, and having to tly his country, it is probable he never would have revealed himself,. But the positive and unexpected manner of Augusta Tipton, had taken him at a disadvantage, and he surrendered at discretion, only stipulating that if they evér met in the presence of others they should know him as Mr. Lewis.

' Shortly after the event just narrated a young man named Lewis appeared at the bank of Mr. Tipton and deposited several thousand pounds, at the same time presenting a letter of introduction from one of his London friends, who spoke of Lewis as theson of a distinguished gentleman, residing abroad.. The Banker offered Mr. Lewis the hospitality és his house, and invited him to dine® e Lewis’ complexion was habitually pale, but upon the present occasion it was whiter than usual, and the newlyhealediseam- across his forehead was still visible in a erimson line. His introduction must have caused Augusta and Cecily some secret amusement.— Be that as it may they never, by look ‘or sign, betrayed the thoughts that passéd through their minds. ’ Every small community seems to be afflicted 'witn one or more persons - whose chief business seems to be in discovering facts regarding _their neighbors hitherto unknown, and then, - without loss of time, proclaiming them tothe discomfiture of those coficerned. In the person of Tom Delong, Hereford had one of those enterprising individuals. Moreover, he was the nephew of Sandhurst Tipton. The banker had for years set his face against his nephew’s manner of life, but as “blood is thicker than water,” he could not cast off his dead sister’s child, so Tom had a carte (blanche to ,his uncle’s house, where he never failed fo disgust his aunt and her husband by his slang of the race course and prize ring—in his estimation two of England’s most valued institutions. - Mr. Tipton was sitting in his réom at the bank when Tom entered. “Good day, uncle,” he said, flinging _himself down ecarelessly on a sofa. - Mr. Tipton raised his eyes and welcomed his nephew in a commonplace way. LAt ‘ ; “Who was that fellow you had up to the house at dinner the other day ?” : “I am not aware that I had any ‘fellow’” answered the banker, with some severity of tone. | : i “Oh, youobjeet.-to the term, do-you #” replied Tom; “let me qualify by calling him a chap.” : : “Quite as objectionable as your previous expression, sir,” responded his uncle. “If you refer to Mr. Lewis/ who. has deposited in this bank, and who brought me a. letter of introduection from my friend Colonel Branford, ’I request you to speak of him with more respect.” . “Branford! Branford!” replied Tom, “why that’s the name of the shooter who used to stop with you so often a few years past. By Jove, T knew I had heard the name somewhere. . Did you notice his death in the Post?” : Mr. Tipton started from his seat and grasped the! paper. . Sure enough, Colonel Branford had fallen dead at his club.’ Verdict, apoplexy. So sudden was the news that the banker felt sick and was obliged to swallow some wine. Branford and himself'had been schoolfellows; in a few days he was to have seen him.

“What were you going to say regarding Mr. Lewis, Thomas?” asked’ the banker. : - . “I was simply going to state that T have good' reason to doubt that he is what he represents himself, and perhaps. if I give_you my reason you'll come down from that: high horse you are on and listen with more attention to what I have to say. Please tell me the daythat Mr. Lewis, as you call him, dined with you.” - “L.et me see,] replied the banker, running over the days in his mind—“Tt was last Friday a week.” - “Friday is an ulz(lucky day to bet on a horse, whatever it may be on a man. Friday week, hey ? | Well, Uncle Sand, for a week or more previous to his introduction to my cousins, they had met him every few days, and as far as they were concerned I don’t think an introduction was at all necessary.” _ “How dare you make such an assertion ?” eried’ the banker, springing to his feet, and confronting his nephew with face alternately white and red.. " “Because I interrupted the meeting myself,” replied Tom, with the utmost coolness; “and I dare assert anything 1 know to be true; but if you don’t believe it, why, of course, it don’t make any difference to me. Goeod-bye,” and he arose to leave. : Pl - “Stay!” responded his uncle, “tell me all about it.” :

Tom seated himself again, and gave a detailed account of times he had seen Augusta and Cecily meet Lewis.— -Each time they met near the scene of the aceident by the wood. Tom never heard any conversation between them ;- he was up among the trees. getting grubs to go fishing. . Mr. Tipton leftt the bank earlier than usual that day, and on his arri- - val home his daughters were summoned to his presence and requested to give an explanation of their previous acquaintance with Lewis. ' In a short decisive way, Augustare_lated the accident that occurred on her leaping the hedge, and frankly admitted that both herself and Cecily had met Lewis even as Tom Delong had reported. 3 : “Then why did you not mention it? At least, why did you let me suppose ‘you were strangers when 'lggrcught him to my house? Explain that, if you please.” e

r “Leannot do it,” replied his daughter, “at least, without violating his ~confidence.” ] o v “THS confidence,”-fsneere(i her ‘fath- - er. . o fa - “Hol! it’s come to that, has it? That willdo™ ¢+ , = Mr. Lewis received a short curt note through the post, in the handwriting of Sandhurst Tipton, requesting a sus- - pension of his visits to his house, and declining any intercourse except upon business. ; By ;the same mail came a foreign letter for I.ewis (whose retreat, it seems, had been discovered,) giving - him. intelligence of the -death of his father, and requesting his return to france, his family having secured his pardon from the governor. Notwithstanding the vigilance of Mr. Tipton and Tom Delong, Augusta and Lewis had a final interview, than he was seen no more. . : A year had passed away, and Mr. Tipton had ceased to remember Lewis, when he one day received a letter from the British ambassador at Paris, informing him that Count Bernier, a distinguished nobleman, at that time. in-the king’s service, was about to visit England, and that he would have the pleasure of :giving him a letter. of introduction to Mr. Tipton. _ The banker read the communicationf with feelings of pleasure. It was always gratifying to his vanity to be the recipient of such communications. His wife, to whom he exhibited the letter, at once began to plan a match for her: daughter Augusta. The latter indulged in such hearty screams of laughter that the propriety of her mother was shocked. It was arranged thata grand dinner should be given in honor of the count’s arrival. A maligcious smile ‘was ever playing upon the lips of Augusta, which both”her father and mother attributed to a wrong motive. In his old accustomed seat at the bank Sandhurst Tipton was sitting some months afterward, when the 10:}1‘(1 of Count Bernier was handed to 1111, “Show him in immediately,” cried the banker, 'springing toward the door. : = The next moment he had mechanically grasped the hand of the count, and thetwo stood regarding each other in silence. Andat length My. Tipton spoke: : “How is this? Ibelievel am looking upom Mr. Lewis,” , The count smiled, and sitting down by the banker, explained all that was mysterious in his first visit to IHereford, and completely satisfied the banker of the propriety of all his actions. . o ] ' Before leaving the bank Count Bernier had obtained Mr. Tipton’s consent to propose to his daughter., “Come down stairs,” cried the banker, as he arrived at his door absolutely forgetting for the moment his decorum, “come down here, and see an old acquaintance.” : : ! * * * * % * L 8 A few weeks later there was a grand time at the Tipton mansion;every one was jolly, and none more so than Dr. Stole, as he fussed and fumed about the rooms.. Augusta was to marry a nobleman, after all. Her mother’s cup of joy almost ran over. Tom Delong was there, but he did not eall the count a “fellow” and suspended his slang phrases, exceptin one solitary instance. When his. aunt asked him what he thought of the ceremony "he replied, “Well, the parson gave them a fair start, and I think on a square heat Gugsy will come out ahead.”

KANSAS—ITS CLIMATE AND Fow o BATN BALL i 'Eprror BANNER :—There is perhaps a greater immigration to this State this season than to any other, and yet there prevails the idea in the middle States that Kansas is subject to great droughts. I have taken great pains during the month I have been here prospecting in every section of this State, to gather the facts with respect to this subject, as well as that of “eli‘mate generally. Besides the statements and experiences of :very many who have resided in every section of the State for years, I have had the pleasure of obtaining advanced sheets } of the report of the State University, for the past five years. The university ; has a set of the most perfect self-reg-istering instruments, which reécord the } te_mpgraturefianq rain-fall during every instant of time. L

" I will not go into dry, tabular statements, but will give the leading and most important features of these careful observations. | For the past five years the mean tel‘npera'gure'has been as follows: Spring, 53 deg'rrees, 77 minutes; summer, 76 degrees, 6 minutes; autumn, 52 degrees, 9 minutes ; winter, 29 degrees, 21 minutes. i ‘The winters are open, the fall of snow being light, rarely exceeding five inches in depth at any one time. The mercury sank below zero but two days during the entire winter of 1869; the lowest point reached being only five' degrees below zero. | The past winter was an exeeption in this respect here, as well as elsewhere. Theugh much colder than usual, the mercury ditl not j reach so low a point by one-third as that in,the same latitude in the States east o%hhis. It cannot be said of any of the Btates east of this latitude that’ farmers plow up to the first of’ January and only suspend work to about the middle of February, when it begins -again. Yet this is frequently true of the south-western portion of this State. The carefully taken observations for the past five years show that Kansas stands at the head of twenty 'States for early, warm springs. Theése are the eastern, middle and western States. The long period without having frosts is another important feature. The five years observations show that this period averages two hundred days, or ‘about seven months of the year. And I should say that these first frosts do ‘not destroy grass and grazing, which latter extends well into the winter ‘months. Thus it is seen that so far as ‘temperature is concerned the climate of this State is most admirably adapted to the successful growth of. the great staples of agriculture peculiar to the middle latitude of the whole country. The prolonged heat of swmmer and long period of immunity from frost -certainly invite the eultivation of erops

of a more southern latitude. -In a future letter I will give the result of most interesting experiments with cotton culture in the Arkansas Valley, this State, last season.”. 7. . .o~ _The scientific observations to which I have been referring ~are valuable with respect to ‘information concerning rain-falls. . The notion prevails in the middle and eastern States that this State is regularly subjected to droughts. A single drought in the south-eastern counties of the State in 1860 produced this impression. -It is not unfrequent that some sections of the various middle and eastern States ' experience droughts, but it would hardly be fair to condemn them on that account.: Thave the facts before me if regard to rainfalls for the past five years, during which time careful observation has been made and daily recorded. - The yearly average of rain-fall for the past five years, by inchés, is, for Kansas, 44:09. Same time for Ohio, 41:56.— For Indiana, 46:78, and for Illinois 37:76. Unlike that of any of the States east of this, the rain-fall of Kansas-is distributed to the growing seasons of the year, there being but one-tenth of it during the winter months, including the melted snows, ‘and the other ninetenths come at the time-most needed, gradually increasing from 2:22 inches in March, to 5:79 in. A}lguét, from which period it again’ diminishes. - 1t is well known that in the ‘middle and eastérn States the rain and meltéd snows are as-great in winter as in any other season. Kansas has less rain-and melted snow in winter than any State in the Union except Minnesota and Nebraska, and a greater rain-fall in spring, summer and authfifi than eight of the other western States, including Tllinois, Michigan, Towa, Wiseonsin, and Missouri. These are facts which can be*found in the Smithsonian Institute reports . for the past past. five vears. It is further shown that for the seven growing months, in respect to rain-fall, Kansas stands at the head of the twenty-nine States’ from ‘which reports were made.” Now these facts' suggest—_.

e TELL CITY, INDIANA, WHAT MANUFACTORIES DO FOR A e oW "There is a little town in Perry county, in this State, that is at the present ‘time’attracting more than usual attention in consequence of ‘its rapid ‘im--crease in wealth and population. This place is Tell City. It has a history which miglit be studied with profit by - other towns possessing the same, if not greater advantages. This little _place was a forest sixteen years .ago -without a habitation or an inhabitant. A'colony of industiious Swiss foreigners,. with chiefly muscle for capital, ‘without an acquaintance and little knowledge of the English language, were: the first to fell .the trees, build -houges, and to make this uninviting spot the hive of busy, peaceful. and prosperous industry, The name of this:town is' known far and- wide_ as. Tell City, and fo-day supplies an immense area of territory with: its produets. She ‘has within her borders twenty large steam manufacturing establishments, and all of them grown from little enterprises, upon. capitals “ranging f{Oln six thousand to twenty thousand " dollars, until to-day ;their original amounts have expanded into forty, sixty and eighty thousand dollars. The aggregate sales,of these establishments last year exceeded $800;000, -and the amount of sales for the current year it is estimated will exceed -more than $1,000,000. Since January Ist, 1873, Tell City has sold and sent: abroad more than sixteen thowsand packages of furniture, ane.thousand ‘dozeir of chairs, one hundred :m(‘;i. twenty wagons, six hundred and thirts: barrels of flour, one huhdred and eighty thousand hooppoles, and:two hundred .and five thousand shingles, besides a large number of stoves, pieces of cast_ings, sash, doors, and numerous other -articles too voluminous to enumerate. 2 Mt.

‘Driving the Devil Out ofa Sick Child . The St. Louis Democrat furnishes the following case of ignorance and superstition: “John Wybrick, who lives at 3519-Broadway, is- a blacksmith in comfortable circumstances. ‘For the past three weeks 4 one of his seven children, an 'infant, has been dangerously ill with a disease the symptoms of which are exactly similar to those of cerebro-spinal 'meningitis. = As the child did not appear-to get any better, a priest was called in on Monday evening, and to ‘this. priest the balance of this tale principally re-: lates. Upon viewing the child, the ‘clerical gentleman informed the par--ents-that it was troubled with witches, ‘and he thereupon laid a large cross upon the legs of the little-one, which, ‘he claimed, had the effect of driving out the/evil spirits. They were.only “driven out.of the body, however, to enter the bed upon which the sick child was lying. By. direction of the priest this bed was then taken! and burned in the back yard; but, as it was asserted that the dewvil still lingered in .and around four other beds which. were in the house, they also were burned up. As a crowd had congregated on the occasion of the first burnt-offering, these beds were taken to a remote spot on .the river bank, where an extensive conflagration ensued. The beds in question were worthfiabout $l5O, and the neighbors, upon hearing of the sacrifice to be made, pteaded piteously for them, but without avail. Not only were the beds destroyed, but also bolsters, pil-. lows; and everything else which was constituted of feathers.. Despite the well-meant efforts. of the parents to aid in the recovery of their child, they were informed that the witehes still held possession of it, and that they could not be driven out, and, fuxrther, that the child could neither recover or die until the evil- ones took their departure. . The parents devoutly believed all that has been stated by the priest, and, in token thereof, a large cross at present hangs from the neck of the sick one, but its healing powers do ot seem to be very efficacious.”
