But he knew that his cousin

Miss Reynolds, on longer drooping, sat upright in her chair, looking at him with a fixed, stern gaze, and a certain fierce light in her eyes which he had never seen there .before.
You have seen her?' she asked. I have.' Did she tell you this story?' No. I simply learned that been to Philadelphia, and professes to

There is something more?' she asked, with a hard ring in her voice. «Only this, he replied, suddenly resolving to end the difficulty, and even rather curious to learn the effect 'a commission which I promised to execute.'
He handed her the envelope as he spoke. It was unsealed she tore it open, and mastered itsoontentsata glance, he looking determinedly away.

TH® New York Journal of Commerce has been figuring on the Louisville lot tery business, and concludcs that, aside from the manifest fraud in its management, it does not hokTout very fine prospects of sudden wealth. For the last drawing, says the paper referred to, there was sold 45,000 tickets at fifty dollfts each, making the total of money received $2,260,000. The prizes distributed amount to only fl, 125,000, or half the money taken In, a proportion altogether too small for a lottery which puts on the pretensions of fairness and liberality affected bv this one. The total of prizes awarded should be at least three-fourths of the gross receipts, and then would leave a handsome balance for the insti tution to be benefitted. The number of prizes announced to be distributed is 12,000, but 11,000 are for only $37.50 each, and the other thousand represents various aunts up to the capital prize of $187,500. The chance of drawing any prize in the lottery was one to four, and the probabilities were very great that the prise drawn would be actually lass than the sum put in 1 In other words, a man invests *60 in order that he may have, practloallv, one chance out of four to draw |87.50, His chances of drawing one of the considerable prises are, on the whole, less than the chances of being struck by lightnl ng.

THE habits of drinking and smoking are generally formed between the ages of fifteen and twenty-one. Hardly any man of mature years will take up either the use of liquor or tobacco. It is generally begun from a desjre to appear manly, or from A certain craving for stimulants which seems to take hold of young men on the verge of manhood. It Is possible that this craving is more OT less created or encouraged by an improper and unhealthy style of living.

The 5ct of the meeting came up at our table alter service, and I questioned my lather about it with the eagerness of a child. The whispered words which had been dropped in my hearing clothed the whole affair in mystery to me, and I waa ail eagerness to the same strange thing.
My &ther said it was some schema to unite church and State. The night came, and the troops of people gathered on the tavern steps, aud 7 beard the jest and laugh, and saw drunk en men reeling out of the bar-room. urged my fother to let me go, but he refused.

the people appeared as they came in, nine to wonder what kind of an ex-
In the corner was the tavern-keeper, and around him was a number of his friends.
For an hour the people of the place continued to come in, until there was a fhir house full. All were curiously watching the door, wondering what would next appear. The pastor stole in and took a seat behind a pillar under the
gallery, as if doubtful of the propriety of being there at all.
Two men finally came in, and went to the altar, and took their seats. All eyes were fixed upon them, and a general stillness pervaded the house.
The men were unlike in appearanoe. one being short and thick set in build the other tall and well formed. The younger had the manner and dress of a clergyman, a ftill round face and quiet good-natured look, as he leisurely looked round the audience.
But my childish interest was all in the old man. His broad deep chest, and unusual height looking gaunt-like as lie strode up the aisle. His hair was white, his brew deeply seamed with furrows, and around his handsome mouth, lines of calm, touching sadness. His eye was black and restless, and kindled as the tavern-keeper uttered a low jest aloud. His lips were compressed, and a crimson flush went and came over his pale cheek, One arm was off above the elbow, and there was a wide, deep scar over his right eve.
The younger finally arose and stated the object oi their meeting, and asked if there was a clergyman present to open with a prayer.
Our pastor kept his seat, and the speaker himselfmade a short prayer, and then made a short address, at the conclusion calling upon any one present to make remarks.
The pastor rose under the gallery, and attacked the position of the speaker, using the argument which I nave often heard since, and concluded by denouncing those engaged in the new movement as meddlesome fanatics, who wished to break up the time-honored usages of good society, and injure the business of respectable'men. At the conclusion of his remarks, the tavern-keeper and his friends got up a cheer, and the current of feeling was evidently against the strangers and their plans.
While the pastor was speaking, the old man had fixed his eyes upou him and leaned forward as if to catch every word.
As the pastor took his seat, the old man rose, his tall form towering in its symmetry, and his chest swelling as he inhaled Ins breath through his thin dilated nostrils. To me, at that time there was something awe-inspiring and grand in the appearance of the old man, as he stood witJb his full eye upon tho audience, his teeth shut liard and a silence like that of death throughout the church.
He bent his gaze upon the tavern-keep-er, and that peculiar eye lingered and kindled for half a moment.
The scar grew red upon his forehead and beneath his heavy eyebrows his eye glittered and glowed like those of a serpent. The tavern-keepor quailed before the searching glance, and I felt a relief when the old man withdrew his gaze. For a moment he seemed lost in thought and then in a low and tremulous tone he commenced. There was a depth in that voice, a thrilling pathos and sweetness, which riveted every heart in the house, before the first period had been rounded. My father's attention had become fixed on the speaker with an interest which I had never before seen him exhibit. I but briefly remember tho substance of what tho md man said, though the scene is as vivid before me as any I ever wit-
My friends!—I am a stranger in your village, and I trust I may qUl you friends. Anew star has risen, and there hop® in the dark night, which hangs like a pall of gloom over our country."
With a thrilling speaker continued O, God, thou that lookest with companion upon the most erring of earth's children, thank thee that a brazen sermit lias been lifted, noon which the Jrunkard can look and tic helped that a beacon has burst out upon the darkness that surrounds him, which sliall ruide back to honor and to heaven the Druiaed and weary wanderer."
It is strangle what power there is in some voices. Hie speaker was slow and unmoved, but a tear trembled in every eye, and before I know why. a tear abyolh

The old man seemed looking through faney at some bright vision, his lips apart and his fingers extended. I involuntarily looked in the direction where it was pointed, treading to see some shadow invoked by its movements. ''I had once a mother. With her heart crushed with sormw, she went down to the grave. I once had a wife—a fair gentle creature ever smiled in an earthly horme. Her eyes as mild as a summer

One New Year's night I returned late to the hut where charity had given us a roof. She was yet up and shivering over the coals. I demanded food, but she burst into tears and told mo there was none. I fiercely ordered her to get some. She turned her eyes sadly upon me, the tears falling over her pale check. At this moment tho chila in the cradle awoke and set up a famishing wail, startling the despairing mother like a serpent's sting."
We have no food, James I have had none for several days, I have nothing for the poor baby. Oh, my once kind Busband, must we indeed starve
44
That sad, pleading face and those streaming eyes, and tne feebly wail of tho child maddened me, and I—yes I— struck her a fierco blow in the face and she fell forward upon the hearth. The Airies of hell boiled in my bosom and with a deeper intensity as I felt I had committed a wrong. I had never struck Mary before, but now some terrible impulse drove me on, and I stopped as well as I could in my drunken state, and I clenched both my hands in her hair."
44
God of mercy, James," exclaimed my wife, as she looked up into my fiendish countenance, "you wul uot'kill us, you will not harm Willie." And she sprang to the cradle, and grasped him to her embrace.
I caught her again by the hair and again dragged her to the door, and as I lifted the latch, the wind bursted in with
cloud of snow. With the yell of a fiend, still dragged her on and hurried her out into the storm. With a wild ha ha! closed the door and turned the button. The babe was thrust out after the moth-
By this time my eldest son awakened from his slumbers and against Ills half-maddened struggles, I opened the deor and thrust him out. In the agony of fear he called me by a name I was no longer fit to bear, ana locked his fingers into my side pocket. I could not wrench that frenzied grasp away, and with the coolness of a devil, as I was, shut tho door upon his arm, and with my knife severed it at the wrist."
The speaker ceased a moment, and buried his face in his hands, as if to shut out some fearful dream, and his deep chest heaved like a storm swept sea. My father had risen from his seat and was leaning forward, his countenance bloodless, and the large drops standing out on his brow. Chills crept back to my young heart, and 1 wished I was at home. The old man ideed looked up, and I never have since beheld such mortal despair pictured upon a human face as there was on his.
44
It was morning when I awoke, and the storm had ceased, and the cold was Intense. I first secured a drink of water, and then looked in tho accustomed place for Mary. As 1 missed her for some time, a snadowy aense of some horrible nightmare began to dawn upon my I ji wandering mind. I thought I had a fearful dream, but involuntarily opened the outside door with a shuddering dread. As tho door opened, the snow burst in, followed by the falling of something across the floor, scattering the snow and .striking wi.h a sharp, bad sound. #*,'.•

The okl man sat down, but a spell «a deep and strong as that wrought by some wizard's breath, rested upon the audience. Hearts could have bead heard In their beating, and tears to fiiB. Tho old man then asked the audience to sign the pledge. My father leaped front his seat and snatched at it eagerly, I ho^ followed him, and as ho hesitated a moment with pen in the ink, a tear foil from the old man's eye on the paper.

Let parents talk much and talk well at home. A father who is habitually silent in his own house xmx he In many respects a wis® man, but he la not wise in his silence. We sometimes see parents, who are tho life of every oompany they enter, dull, silent, and uninteresting at home among the children. If they have not mental stores sufficient for both, let them first provide for their own household. Ireland exports beef aud wheat, Mid lives on potatoes and they fivro as poorly who reserve their charms for companies abroad, and keep their dullness for home consumption. It la be"i''f to Instruct children and make them happy at horn than it is to charm strangers or to a«in~ friends.

DRTXK A XI) DISEASE The Revue des Deti Mondca, in speaking of the peculiar liability of the drunkard to attacks of epidemics, remarks: Not only is he subject to ordinary maladies. but these present in him a character of spccial gravity. M. Bergeron remarks that In cholera epidemics the daily number of victims attains its maximum directly after tho grand libations of the week, that is to say, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Typhoid fever, 'dysentery, and small-pox aw peculiarly severe among those who drink hard. The danger of all acute diseases is greatly augmented with them by the febriie delirium. Finally, the state of drunkenness, and more especially confirmed alcoholism, te very Inimical in eases of wounds. Tho danger of phlegmon, erysipelas, and gangrene are constantly threatening in sucJra cases, the cicatrization of the wound is jierpetually delayed, and its surface always presents a Imd aspcct. There is no such thing as a trilling wound for a drunkard.
