3 RHODES was the high sheriff of —»— county. Mass., and Lis good name, inherited from,* th “ father and cherished by the sbn, made him not only jiopular as an ofticer, but rather wealthy as "a man. Why Mr. Rhodes

r.ad never got married tne Indies couul aiot ascertain, though they talked the matter over and over very often, but almost all said there must have been sofau* cause in his youth—Mr. Rhodes Was 35. at least,—which r as known only to himself and perhaps one other. “Some disappointment,” said Miss Anna, a young lady who thought it w rong that gentlemen should be disnppointed. “some fatal disappointment.** “Not at all.” said her maiden aunt. Wnot at all; nobody ever thought that hi r.‘Rhodes had courage enough to offer himself to a lady. He is so modest that 1 should like to see him make a proposal.” “No doubt of it. aunt ie; no doubt of it; and to hear him. too.” “Your father and 1,” said Anna's mother, “once thought that Mr. Rhodes^ Would certainly marry Miss Susan Mor- j gan, who then lived in the neighbor- j " hood.” “Was he accepted by Miss Morgan?” •sked Anno. “1 don’t believe sheevei had an offer.” •ahi Aunt Arabella. "Perhaps not,” said Mrs. Wilton; “but •he certainly deserved one from Mr. Rhodes; and I have frequently thought •that, during services in church, he wa> •bout to make proposals before the congregation. as he kept his eyes continually on her.” “Do you think.” asked Anna, “that M iss Morgan was as fond of him as lie •j geared to be of her?” “She certainly did not talce the same means of showing her feelings.” said Mrs. Wilton, “for she never looked at him in church, nmi »e« pied to blush v h-n. l*y any means, she discovered that others had noticed lii« gazing irpon her.” ' “1 should think.” said Anna, partly •side, “that a man like Mr. Rhodes

' ITT T * r “LET ME TAKE THAT” would not hick confidence to address a lady,‘especially if she wat conscious of Iter own feelings and of his infirmity.** Mrs. W. smiled, and Aunt Arabella teas about to say that no lady should over evince her feelings under such ciroumstanees.when Mrs. Wiltoa remarked that once, when she had joked Miss Morgan upon her conquest, she rather pettishly replied “that she may hare subdued him, but he hadritever acknowledged her pow er." “Conquest and possession did not go together, then, * said Anna. “Well, is this attachment the cans* of Mr. Khodes* single condition? Was there no one else at whom he could look 0 ir. church, who would be likeljr to look at him also?" said Anna, nodding / toward her aunt. “X©,*said Aunt A„ with a hearty smile, ■"none in the pew to which you allude. 1 at least was too strongly impressed

with the force of the Tenth Commandment, ‘thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ox nor his ass,* ever to be looking over Miss Morgan at Mr. Rhodes."* One morning Mr. Rhodes was sitting in his office, when one cf the deputies read off a list of executions and attachments, which he had in han£ to serve, and among them was one against a lady at a short distance. The amount was not great, but enough to bring distress upon a family. “Let me take that,** said the sheriff, with some feeling: “it is out of your walk and I will drive to the residence of the person to-morrow morning.** The modest vehicle of the officer stopped at the door of a neat dwelling house in a retired, delightful situation, w here all things told of taste and ecor. omy. The sheriff opened the gate, ascended the steps of the house, and asked if Miss Morgan was at home. The servant answered in the affirmative. As Mr. Rhodes passed along the hall he thought over the part he had to perform—how he should introduce the subject—how, if the debt should prove to ‘;e onerous, he should contrive to lighten the burden by his own abilities; and when he reached the door he had conned his salutation to the lady and his opening speech on the subject of bis official call. ; The servant opened the door—Mr. Rhodes entered with a bow. He blushed, hesitated and at length took a seat, to which Miss Morgan directed him by a graceful turn of her hand. After a few moments’hesitancy, Mr. Rhodes felt that it was his business to open a conversation that would explain the subject of his visit; so he offered, by way of preface, a few remarks upon the coldness of the spring. “Yes,” said Miss Morgan: “but yet. cold as the weather has been, and even notwithstanding a few frosts, you see the trees have their richest foliage, and the flowers are luxuriant.” “True,” said Mr. Rhodes; “it seenfs that though there may be a great deal of coldness, nature will have her own way, and', in time, assert her prerogative, late, perhaps. Miss Morgan, but still the

Mr. Rhodes felt rather startled at his own speeeh, and looking up. was infinitely astonished to See that Miss Morgan was blushing like one of the roses that were hanging against the window. “We are always pleased,** said Miss Morgan, “to see what we admire breaking through the chilling influences by which they have been restrained, and satisfying our hopes of their ultimate disclosure.” Miss Morgan was looking directly toward the bush on which three roses were clustering in most gorgeous richness. Mr. Rhodes put his hand into his pocket,,and felt of the official pipers, to gather a little courage from their contact. “I have,” said Mr. Rhodes, “an attachment.” Miss Morgan this time lent blushes to the rose. “The attachment. Miss Morgan, is of a distant date, and I felt that much time, had already elapsed; that, indeed, instead of intrusting it, as I might have, done, to another, I thought that m a matter of so much delicacy it would be proper for me to come in person.” “For me, Mr. Rhodes? the attachment for me?” “As I was saying. Miss Morgan, the attachment I have; and I felt it a matter of delicacy to come in jierson. thinking that my own means might be cou-< sidered, if there was any deficiency iu ih ■ value of this property.” ' “Mr. Rhodes, you seem to be rather enigmatical.” * “I, nevertheless,” said Mr. II-, “mean to speak very plainly w hen 1 say that with reference to this attachment, Miss Morgan, should you honor me so far as to accept my profession, my pecuniary means would be devoted to the—-to the attachment.* ’ “I was.” said Miss Morgan, “wholly unprepared for this.” “I was afraid that was the case.”said Mr. Rhodes, “and therefore I thought it mere delicate to make the offer in per

son. “You are very considerate, Mr. Hinnies.’* ‘Ain I. then, to understand. Miss Morgan. that my proposition is agreeable to you? In other words, that it is accepted ?" "Air. Rhodes." said the lady, with much hesitation. “I must claim a little time to think of it." "I will call, then, on iny return from the village beyond." "Let me ask a little more time/* said she; "say next week.” “Miss Morgan.” said Mr. Rhodes, "the mutter requires immediate answer: the attachment is of an c!d date, and time now is everything. ^Iy deeliugs are deeply interested; and may I hot hope that while you are using so short a time to consider a subject which you are pleased to view as* of such great de|ic«cy with regard to yourself* you will allow mv feelings to weigh with you in deciding in favor of my proposition. which. I assure you, is made after due deliberation upon my ability to perform my part of the contract." 4 Mr. Rhodes then took his leave, astonished at his own volubility, which, indeed. nothing could have induced but his desire to relieve one so much esteemed as Miss Morgan from present embarrassment. Mr. Rhodes drove to a neighboring place, deeply occupied with his good purposes toward Miss Morgan, satis fying himself that the pecuniary sacrifice he had proposed was due to his untold and unknown affection for her. and pot beyond his means. Mias Morgan] felt a renewal of all those feelings Which had rather been dormant than quenched in her bosom, and desired ih* advice of her married sister, who was unfortunately absent. That Mr. Rhodes bad once felt a strong attachment to her, she could not doubt, that he had continued to cherish, aa

she had done, the reciprocal laeUnff, she had not ventured to hope. But as it was evident that the proposition ol Mr. Rhodes was not from any sudden impulse. Miss Morgan resolved to signify her assent to a proposition so worthy cf consideration on all accounts. In less than two hours Mr. Rhodes drove up to the door again, fastened his horse, and was readmitted to the little back parlor, which he had occupied in an earlier part of the day. “Miss Morgan,” said Mr. Rhodes, “before receiving your answer, which 1 trust you are prepared to give in favwr of accepting my proposals, I wish to state to you ihat I have considered all the circumstances of my situation and vours, and find myself better able, from some previously unconsidered matters, j to keep my part of the arrangement j than I thought myself when I ventured 1 to make the offer; so that the kindness, i if you will have that word used in this matter, is all on your side.” “Under present circumstances — I mean those of our long acquaintance and our family intercourse, though ol late rather interrupted,” said Miss Morgan, “ami my right, by years,” she added, casting a glance at a lookingi glass that showed only matured women- ' hood, “to speak for myself, I have con* ; eluded to consider your proposal favorably.” “Consider! Miss Morgan, consider ! favorably! May ! not hope you meal that you will accept it?” Miss Morgen gave no answer. “Nay. theu, it is accepted,” said Mr. Rhodes, with a vivacity that.Miss Morgan thought would have brought h-ra to fier lij.s—her hand, at least. “Howtfhappy you have made me,” said Mr. Rhodes; * having now disposed ol this matter, there are ten days allowed."* “That's very short,” said M iss Morgan; j “only ten days; you seem to be in a haste 1 unusual to you at ’east.” “It is the attachment, and not I, that j is imperative. “You speak rather abstractedly, Mr, | Rhodes.” “But truly, very truly. Miss Morgan." “But why limit us to ten days?” “The attachment requires it.” “I thought.” she said, smiling, “tk* attachment would be for life.” Mr. Rrodes looked exceedingly con

fused. At length he started suddenly toward the Udy. “My dear Miss Morgan, is it possible that for ouee in niv life I have blundered i into the right path? Can I have been | so fortunately misconceived?” “If .there is any mistake,” said Miss j Morgan, “I hope it will be • leared up immediately. 1 can scarcely think that J Mr. Rhodes would intentionally often 1 an unprotected orphan, the daughter of his former, friends.” Mr. Rhodes hastily pulled from his l>oeket his writ of at*acbment, and i showed it to Miss Morgan. I “This is certainly your name, and this property—” “Is the disputed possession,” said Miss Morgan, “of my sister-in-law of the same name, Mrs.* Susan Morgan.” Mr. Rhodes stood confounded. He was afraid of the course w hich the matter was likely to take. | “So, Mr. Rhodes, you see the attach- ; inent was for this property. Xow, as it | is not mine, and as, indeed, I have little of. my own. you, of course, have no claim upon my person.” “I beg your pardon, my dear. Miss Morgan, 1 beg your pardon, but be pleased to read lower down on the writ! I you w ill see—look at it. if you please— ‘for want thereof take the body.’ ” “But, Mr. Rhodes, the promise vat extorted under a misapprehension, so that I am released.” “Xo. not at all; you arc required only | tc fulfill the promise just as von intended when you made it. And as to •he attachment for the widow and her | property. I’ll serve that by deputy." In ten days the clergyman, and not i the magistrate, was called in, and the w hole arrangement was consummated. And Aunt Arabella who was so careful about the Tenth Commandment, declared that it said nothing about cov- > eting a neighbor’s husband, and if it j had, she did not think she should violate it.—Indianapolis Sun.

Nearly a* Bad. Telling what we have heard to an* other's disadvantage is cot so bad as starting a slander without provocation, but it 5* nftxt to it. Slanders do niv-re harm through being repeated by those who just tell what they have heard than through be ing first told by the one who invented them. If a slanderer could find no one to jiass along his slanders without being sure as to their truth or falsity, he would-nave no success in his oc« upation. “Where no wood is, there the fire goetb out; so where there Is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth ” Before we tell anything to another's discredit we should first know (not merely think) it is trtMv&nd then we should be sure that good is to come of its repeating.

Agkam, Hungary, Aug. 1.—For some time othe Stenjevee district wus infested by a gang that was organized for the purpose of brigandage and [ murder. The authorities finally determined to make an effort to extirpate the gang, the result being that a number, of men and women were arrested either on direct knowledge that they were implicated in the crimes of | which the gang were accused, or on suspicion that they were implicated. The prisoners were brought to trial and yesterday a verdict of guilty of murder was pronounced against 19 of them, who were sentenced to death. Others of the prisoners were convicted ! of lesser crimes and were sentenced to various terms of imprisonment. Two of the prisoners on whom sentenpe of death was passed are women.
