Not So Easily Won.
'Yon feel comfortably sure of her, Tom." "Well, why not, my dear Jack, when I've only to aak, and the little lady's mine? I'm immensely taken with her, but I've hung off about—"
The dip of advancing oars drowned the rest of the sentence, but Mias DaiBy *mpbell in her hammock behind the tillers had beard enough to destroy her

sace.|i"earful of betraying her presence the movement of a finger, the girl l".y rigid as marble, watching with •trained eyes the fragment blue wreaths •f smoke gliding past her retreat, till through an opening in the bushes farther up the brook she caught a fleeting glimpse of a birch canoe beneath the smoke, and of the smokers, two gay sunbured youths with guns and fishinging rods. Tom Raymond sat at the Stern, tall, handsome Tom, who had but now boasted of his easy conquest of herself. In that moment of wounded pride and fierce indignation, Miss Daisy thought that she could have cheerfully seen him drown. 'Oh, she's a daisy,' hummed Jack McKeen and as the mocking tenor smote ter ear the quivering listener thought she could have seen Jack drown loo—the saucy, idle tell-tate 1 Why need be proclaim to the birds of the air and the fishes of the water that the lady in question, Tom's little lady to be had for the asking, was no other than herself, Mrs. Blunt's city niece, little Daisy Campbell? How indelicate, outrageons!
And yet the song hurt her far less than Tom's words. If Tom, Tom Raymond, oould speak so lightly of her, why might not Jack sing what he pleased, and all Oakland listen So that was the way Tom was in the habit of talking about her 8ho had heard before that young men by themselves were excessively free in dtecussiug their lady friends, ana now she had proof of the fact. Unmannerly, detestablo creature, especially Tom. 'I've only to ask, and the little lady's mine,' those were his very words,'" moaned hapless little Daisy, hiding hor hot face among the hammock cushions in an agony of humiliation. She had always felt that if Tom had a fault it was self-conceit, but she wouldn't have believed he could be so conceited as this. What bail she said or done to warrant his boastful assertion She would challenge Aunt Abby, she would challenge Tom's sister, to say that olie had ever been silly with Tom. If there had been any silliuess, it had not been on her side, unless—truthful Daisy winced at the recollection—unless—well, perh*ps,she did let Tom hold her hand an instant longer than necessary the day he helped her over the fence, and sho wished she had not clung to him in the thunder-storm. But at eighteen what irl likes to be a prude? Though, or that matter, had sue not more than once during their summer's acquaintance snubbed Tom for trying to make love to her Still, he only to ask, and the little lady was his. That was his version of the story, and he had gloated over it to Jack. Daisy lifted her tousled brown head defiantly, and sat bolt-up-right. "1 won't be crushed—I will not/" she she cried aloud, dashing her tears right and left. "I'll go to Pinafore to-night

ust as if i'd overheard nothing, and if chooses to ask for the little lady, why he may. She's sure of her own mind at last. She would have her answer ready."
Springing from the hammock, Miss Daisy walked with martial tread through the garden into the kitchen to help Aunt Abby shell the peas for dinner. "You must have been lying in the sun, ohtld," said that lady, glancing up from the pan in her lap. "It's bad for your eyes and bad for your complexion, don't believe that's a good place for the hammock."
It's a horrid place," responded Daisy, falling savagely to work. "I'm going to ask Abrain to hang it where it was boforBt^

"I hate to leave you alone so late in the evening, auntie," said Daisy, throwing a handful of empty pods at the chickens by the door-stone. "I'm afraid you'll be nervous about the tramp that called this morning." "Nonsense, my dear I an? not one of the nervous sott.

Her very fan kept time to this refrain. She was thankful when the opera ended. For all that, on tho homeward drive she wished herself back in the hall. It was so hard to meet Tom's lover-like gaze with indifference, to school her warm, wayward heart against his tenderness, so precious but yesterday At first she strove bravely to maintain her former vivacity, but her liveliest sallies fell unheeded. The slogan was in the air. Daisy knew Tomliad something particular "to say. Ab, well, for that matter, so had she. Clashing her cold little hands together resolutely, she waited in siieuce. "Daisy, I've been thinking—" "Dangerous symptoms, my young friend Hftthe doctor prescribe." "I'm going back to the medioal school next week, Daisy." "So soon ?"—in atone of caol regret. "And I want to ask vou, Daisy—" "I've only to ask, and the little lady'd mine," prompted taunting memory, kindling in Daisy's eyes a dangexous fiie.

I wish ycu'd take it t© keep." "You're too generous, Tom. I'm not a strong-minded woman. Shouldn't want to be called Mr. Raymond." "Don't tease, Daisy. You know what I mean.

"Serious, Tom she said aloud "I'm literally serious as the grave.

Daisy beard the closing of a distant door, and fled to dream dreams too confused for record.
As she was tiptoeing out of the house in the early morning she came upon Tom, looking glum and sleepless. "I beg your pardon, Tom, for what I said last night—about the hen-coop, you know," she whispered in dimpled oon-. fusion. "It was awfully naughty. I take it all back." "And will you take back all the rest, Daisy, implored Tom, cheered by her blushes. "Hush! Can't stop, Tom," said she, with an evasive laugh. "I must take myself back now to Aunt Abby." "You must do no such a thing, Daisy Campbell," said Tom, stoutly, his clouded mind precipitately illumined by the coquettish sparkle in her eye. "By your leave, madam, I shall take you back to Aunt Abby myself, and I shall ask hor to lock yon in next timo, and keep you for me. Come, the carriage is ready. We'll ride with the little Lady."

DAINTY DISHES. [N. Y. Morning Journal.]
Among the deserts that can be pfe pared at a few moments' notice, the French pancake is one of the dantiest. Beat three eggs with a saltspoonful of salt and a desertspoonful of sugar until very light add a saltspoonful of soda dissolved in vinegar, and a large coffee cupful of rich milk stir in flour to make a thin batter butter a hot griddle, and enough to spread the size of puddingplate brown on both sides, lay on a hot plate, spread with any nice jam or preserve, and roll up like jelly cake. Sift oh some powdered sugar and dash of nutmeg. It is necessary that the batter should be very smooth and free from lumps, and in order to effect this it is well to stir in apart of the mike at first, then add the four—about a large enpful —and thin with the remainder of the milk.

2 RIB BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS. [Washington Sunday Herald.} Gen. Harney has exploded one tradition that was long connected with this fight, which was that the Americans fought from behind breastworks of cotton bales. "I asked Gen. Jackson, Gen. Adair and Gen. Coffee, the latter having the immediate command of a brigade of the Tennessee and Kentucky sharpshooters, whose long rifles mainly did the work of death, if there were any cotton bales used at all, and they all answered that the only works the Americans had were of earth about two and one-half feet high, rudely constructed of fenne rails and logs laid 24 incb'es apart and the space between them filled with earth, and if there had been any works constructed from cotton bales they must have never known it. In 1825 I was promoted to the captain in the First In fantrv and sent to Nashville, Tenn., recruit for my regiment. While there met Gens. Jackson and Coffee very often obtained from the former many details of the battle of Calmette that are not print. 'There was a heavy fog on the river on the morning of the "fight,1 said Gen. Jackson and the British troope were actually formed and moving before I had my airangementa made. But the instant I saw the formation, I said Coffee, "By they are ours Coffee's part of our line was on the flank, which extended into the swamp. Abont a quarter of a mile from it there was a huge plantation drainage canal, sueh as are common in the Louisana lowlands. Here Gen. Paokenham form ed bis first attacking column. His for mation was a column in mass of about 50 files front. This was formed under the fire of the few regular artillerists bad in a little redonbt in Coffee's front, and that of some cannon taken from a man of war, placed in a battery on the river and served by sailors. Coffee seeing the direction of the attack, whieh was intended to turn his flank, dashed forward and said to bis men "Hold your fire until you can see their beltburkles." The riflemen were formed in two ranks behind the works mentioned and when the first rank £red the second was loaded and ready. There were about 1800 men behind this frail eover, all of whom were dead shots, and eaoh had 100 bullets in his pouch and the necessary powder in his born. The British troopB came up to within 100 yards of our works without firing a musket. It was a beautiful sight to see. They marched as steadily, shoulder to shoulder, as though they were on review. At 100 yards' distance the order was given them to charge. With a cheer and a double-quick they came forward. They were soon about 60 yards' distant when along biasing flash ran all along our lln«j. It was as pretty volley firing as I ever heard or saw. 'The smoke hung so heavy that for the moment I could not make out just what had happened,' said Gen. Jackson. •In another instant there was another sharp, ringing volley that proved it
came
from the riflemen. I called Tom Overton and Duncan, of my staff, and we galloped over to Coffee's line. Just then the smoke rose, and I saw that the British column had literally melted away. In front of our line lay one' writhing, ghastly mass of dead and dying red-coats. The column recoiled and fell back to the canal, where they had started from,.and were then re-formed. This time the charge was made by Gen. Packenham in person, gallantly mounted and riding coolly and gracefully as if he were on parade. Jnst as he came within rage of my riflemen I saw hlni reel and topple out of his saddle, mortally wounded. I have always believed he fell by the bullet of a free man of color in the fight who was a celebrated rifie-shot from the Attakapas country of Louisiana.'"

STARTING THE STAMP.
THE ORIGIN OF THE FRACTIONAL CURRENCY SO USEFUL YEARS AGO.
Postsl currency, which was the change" during the war and until the resumption of Bpecie payssents, was the invention of Gen. Spinner, who had represented the Syracuse district of New York in congress, and had been appointed treasurer of the United States by President Lincoln, Small change had vanished, and in buying a dinner in the market change had to be taken in beets, cabbages, potatoes and what not. Gen. Spinner was constantly appealed to from all quarters to do something to supply the demand for small change. He had no law under which he could act, but after buying a half-dollar's worth of apples several times and receiving for his half-dollar in change more or less different kinds of produce, he began to cast areund for a substitute for small
°bIn Ills dilemma he bethought himself of the postage stamp. He sent down to the postoffice department and purchased a quantity of stamps. He then ordered up a package of the paper upon which 'overnment securities were printed. Ae cut the paper into various sizes. On the pieces he pasted stamps to represent different amounts, and thus initiated a substitute for fractional silver. This was not, however, a government transaction in any sense it could not be. Gen. Spinner distributed his improvised currency among the clerks of the department. They took it readily, and the trade folks more readily.
The idea spread the postage stamps, either detached or pasted upon a piece of paper, became the medium of amall exchange. It was dubbed "postal currencv." Frosa this Gen. Spinner got his idea of the fractional currency which became so popular. The fao-simile of postage stamps was put on each piece of currency and for a long time it was known as "postal currency." An enor moos amount never was presented for redemption, and the government was consequently the gainer.

WAS IT A TRAGEDY
LAMENTABLE DEATH OF TWO YOUNG LADIES AND THE NARROW ESCAPE OF THE THIRD.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. Not long ago a mother and daughter called at the office of a prominent New York physician. The young lady was fair of faoe, graceful of form, with a complexion Indicating health, and yet her mother said there was every indication to her tbat she was. the prey of some mysterious disorder. At her reqaest, the physician made a searching examination. Nothing was discovered. At the importunities of the mother, another physician was called in and another examination made with the same result.
In less than three months the young lady was dead. Ia the same city another prominent physician was visited recently by a young lady of attractive address, refined manners, and winsome appearance.
She had scarcely stated her case when her lips quivered, her face paled, ber arms dropped to her side, and she was dead.
She died alone with ber physician, and gossips made high scandal, but a
Eer
ost mortem examination showed that death was caused by a convulsion, and the voice of slander was bushed. These are facts which can be substantiated if need be.
Medical science does not tell us all we ought to know. It is small satisfaction for us that death must lay our friends low before we can find out the nature ef their diseases. Life is a great mystery and it is a- sad commentary on present human attainments that death is the only key which in many cases can unlock the depths of this mystery.
There is something more to be dreaded than eholera, more to be feared than consumption, which is preying upon the health of our young people, because, unlike them, its approach is insidious, and we know of its presence only by the death it brings. Mr. Charles E. Stephens, the well-known exporter at 1228 Third St., Louisville, Ky., had an experience somewhat similar to the mother whose case is above related. His daughter, when but nine years of age, seemed suddenly to droop. She was exceedingly languid, was frequently prostrated with headaches and nervous depression, and the feeling of extreme'fatigue grew upon hor constantly. She could scarcely breathe could retain nothing on her stomach, she bloated so tbat she measured 4$ inches aronnd the waist, and it seemed that she would go mad with agony. Every month she got worse and worse and finally, as death seemed to be obtaining tbe mastery, In alarm her case and treatment were telegraphed to a prominent New York specialist, who, after due deliberation wired back that. everything possible had been done and that she could not recover. In three months from that time, however, she began te amend and in a few weeks was clothed with health and in her right mind.
In the first ease mentioned, death was caused by what is called bright's disease of the kidneys, in the second it was found that uremic blood poisoning, caused by the same disease, produced the fatal convulsion, and in the third oase death was threatened by the same disorder, but was averted, when every other means failed, by warner's safe cure. This result was accpoyjljahed three years ago and the lapse of time has shown that it was not a mere temporary effect.
It is evident tbat medical men do not know everything, and yet how strange it is tbat people credit them witb omniscience and die in tbe delusion. "I am not surprised," says a candid physician, "when I know the ignorance and incapacity of the profession concerning such disorders, that tbat compound is doing such effective work. If it can accomplish what we cannot, people are very foolish if they do not resort to its use."
It seems to us tbat these three cases convey a lesson and indicate a course of. proceeding which parent and young people cannot afford to ignore.
