George Elict,

Tije Dove-Colored Silk.

By a kind and thoughtful arrangement on the part of their employers, every domestic in the house of Sir John Daytou, baronet and banker, received his or her salary precisely one week before Christmas day.

Very bright and tempting look the tiny pile of sovereigns that Lottie Warde, Miss Dayton's own maid, carried away to her chamber, and sat meditating over, with a cloud on her pretty face such as it seldom wore. Last Christmas the spending of her money had cost her no trouble, except a quickly stilled regret that she could not do more with it for those dear ones, whose kisses and joyful thanks had been such pleasant requital of her generosity.

Although she was as dutiful and Iqving a daughter and as kind a sister as of yore, there had been an event in Lottie's life since the year begun that was closely connected with the impatient sigh she gave, as she sat gazing at her gold, and abstractedly turning it over and over in her palm. She had met at the house of an old friend of Jier late father, a young man so well connected that many wondered he should think of wedding a girl who was "in service." Mr. Charles Morison, they argued, with his good prospects and excellent situation in theoffice of Smithson Brothers, ought to look higher for a wife than Lottie Warde, whose father had died bankrupt, and whose mother's sole dependence was the annuity which some of Mr. "Warde's compassionate creditors had purchased for her. But if Charles Morison heard these things hinted, he laughed and forgot them. He loved Lottie for herself—her sweet temper, her good principles, and the pretty face and figure, that were always set off by the perfect neatness and propriety with which she dressed.

Lottie, however, had taken to heart many of the remarks made in her presence or told her by ill-natured friends, and had rather hastily decided in her own mind that the relatives of

affianced husband looked

down upon her because of her position. This fancy-for it was no more—had made her shy of meeting them, and unwilling to accept the in vitations so kindly sent to her. But Charlie had made a point of her acceding to his parents' wish that she should join the family party they always gathered round them at their handsome^ house at Clapham on the eve of the great festival and as Miss "Dayton had cheerfully consented to spare her, she had not been able to Excuse herself.

Naturally timid and shrinking from grangers, Lottie looked forward to his visit as an ordeal rather than a pleasure. She was to be introduced to Charlie's married sister from Manchester and to the wealthy uncle ftom whom he had expectations and her anxiety that they should think tiell of her, culminated in the inquiry, "Vhat shall I wear?"

It was no use discussing this questkfa with her betrothed. She knew hewould say that nothing couW be in belter taste than the well-fitting, dark merino that had been her best dress

inw the commencement of- the aatimn. But Lottie had her share of girifah vanity, and as she raised her eves to her looking-glassa vision^ rose before her of a certain dove-colored silk in a mercer's window near St. Fattfs that would become her admirably, It was true that such an exSeSW purchase would absorb every farthWg in her possession, but she choseto ignore this. ...

So srong grew the temptation that when lottie went that evening to visit her «iher she lingered long at the mercerS window, and decided that on the

rery

worried me for a little while to think that my excellent, upright husband went to his grave in sorrow and poverty, while this dishonest man holds up his head and grows rich but it was only for a minute, child," and Mrs. Warde smiled now with less effort. "I know to whom I have committed my cause, and I will not murmur at ..anything He wills."

Lottie kissed the placid speaker affectionately, but she was not as sympathetic as usual. Her little sisters hung about her, wondering whether they should have a Christmas pudding, and of them blurted out a fact hitherto concealed that mother did not go to church

never

morrow the dove-colored

silk should be her own. The children threw down their books and toys when Lottie ent^.^they loved her dearly, and Mrs. Warde, thoujn she had been wearing a very anxioik face, as she stitched busily at some Widish garment, contrived to smile it her eldest daughter, who, howevet was not easily deceived. "Something has gone wrong, mother I am sure of it by your looks, Whatisit?" -v, "Nothing you can alter, dear notn ing in fat, that I ought to dwell upoir I heard, by chance, that the man through whose roguery your father. failed Ms returned to England, and is in prN$erous circumstances and it

Sundays till even

ing service because her shawl was so shabby. Lottie slid her hand into the pocket where lay her little purse, but drew it back again, telling herself that she could not possibly go to visit Charlie's friends meanly dressed and when the youngest child climbed on her knee and frankly asked what she was going to bring him for a Christmas present, he was set down again and so slui-rply told not to tense that Mrs. Warde's mild eyes were raised in surprise. 'I beg pardon, mother," said her daughter, coloring under the reproof the look conveyed. "I am afraid I am rather stupid this evening. What were you saying about Robert?—he is elected, pupil teacher at his school. Of course he is—I knew he would be! he has worked so hard for it, dear, good boy!" and she ran across the room to kiss the studious lad, who warmly returned her caresses. "Then you're glad of it, Lottie? So am I, only I think mother's bothered a bit about the books I1:nil "Will they cost much?" asked his sister. "Well, dear, it seems much to persons of our limited income," Mrs. Warde replied. "And he must have a new suit of clothes. But 1 hope to manage it without running into debt, if you can help me a lit tie."

Lottio did not speak, and her mother thoughtfully added,— "The girls will have to do without the new hats I promised them and baby's pelisse must last another winter and—"

But here her daughter stopped her by pettishly saying,— "Oh, mother! pray don't tell us of any more wants they seem endless. How miserable it is to be so poor how sick of contrivances and makeshifts you must be. I know* I am. And somehow the children always seem to need most when one has least to spare." "I did not know you were in that predicament, dear,- or I would not have spoken so plainly," Mrs, Warde replied: "but don't let it worry you," she added, with the cheerful air that covered a multitude of anxious thoughts "we shall manage very well, I dare say."

Lottie went away with her money still in her pocket, but with a load at her heart—half shame, half selfish ill-liumor—which was not lessened by standing at the mercer's window for another half hour before she went back to Sir John's.

While her gaze was fixed on the silk, her rebellious spirit was murmuring at the difficulties of her position. It was so hard that she should always be hampered with the home-cares. Other young people could spend their salaries on themselves, while her purse had such constant calls upon it that there was nothing left for herself. And mother was not thoughtful for her she never seemed to remember that a girl of her age would naturally wish to be smart, especially when she visited persons in better circumstances than herself.

Miss Daytou wanted some trifle brought from her own room that evening, and Lottie had executed her commission and was retreating, when the voice of Sir John, who was reading the evening paper, arrested her. "Dear me! how sad these cases are, one

knows who to trust. Listen

to this, Letitia: "The confidential clerk of Smithson Brothers absconded last night. His employers had had their suspicions aroused by some circumstance or other, and hinted an intention of looking into his accounts. As soon as he learned this he made business in the country a pretense for his flight, and it is supposed that he is on his way to America.

To Lottie's strained ears every word of this was horribly audible, and the next minute she was running down stairs, putting on her hat and shawl as she went. 'If I am a3ked

for,"

she gasped to

the wondering housekeeper, "say that lam ill —that I have gone to my mother's but don't stop me—don't question me, or I shall die."

But It was to the home of Austin Crawley, a fellow-clerk of Charlie's, she first took her way. She would not give up all hope till she had seen him, and heard his lips confirm the dreadful tale and as she went along she tried to comfort herself in repeating,— "Itcannot be! Charlie Morison a defaulter, a fugitive

from

justice—it is

impossible!" "Mrs. Crawley herself answered Lottie's knock, and her smiling .cheerful face made the girl feel her own misery grow sharper. "No, Austin has not returned from the city yet," she said. "Would not Lottie come in and wait for him? She

was quite alone, ror Mr. Crawley tad

place (she believed) of Charlie Morison, whose absence seemed to have put the firm very much out of their way. There was nothing amiss, was there!" she added, as she took a closer survey of her visitor's face.

But her question remained unanswered, for Lottie was already hurrying away. The last faint hope that

««».

the report was a dreadful mistake had perished before Mrs. Crawley's placid utterances. Austin, the gayand careless, whose spedthrift habits had often displeased his parents, had preserved his integrity while Charlea Morrison, the son of many prayers, the steady intellectual young man, who indulged in no low tastes, no "loud" attire, had forfeited his high character and disgraced his family— this was her conclusion.

Away through the busiest streets of London, hurrying on with her face muffled in her veil, lest any one should, perceive the anguish depicted on it, she walked, till she found herself bethe well-known offices of Messrs. Smithson. They had been closed hours earlier, but the old man who was porter and care laker was. standing at the door, talking to some curious acquaintances.

Unperceived by the garrulous speaker, Lottie paused long enough to hear lover's name coupled with words indistinctly caught relating to the large sums of money that were missing. "His father was here this morning, as soon as the news was

made

public,"

the porter went on—"such a respectable old gentleman." Here his voice was lowered, and Lottie passed by, hearing only something about the young man's brokenhearted mother as she went but it reminded her that she was not alone in her grief that the loving parents, who had cherished their son in his childhood, and seen him gradnsiily expand into the bright, intelligent man, must be well-nigh crushed beneath the blow that had so suddenly fallen upon them. Oh, what was her grief to theirs?

And now Lottie flew to her own haven—the arms of her mother—and there wept the first tears her burning eyes had shed.

Shocked, and for sometime incredulous, Mrs. Warde, with infinite patience and tenderness, sustained her child during those hours in which her anguish was almost.more than she could bear.

Never again would Lottie accuso this dear friend and comforter of being wanting in sympathy. Who else would have borne so kindly with her wild burst of impatient sorrow—her restless pacings to and fro-her passionate complainings? Who else would so skillfully have taken advantage of her better feelings to bring her to her knees, and teach her to bow her head to the Divine will? "How good you are to me, darling mother!" she sobbed, when Mrs. Warde had prevailed upon her to lie down, and was bathing her aching head "and inde.ed I don't deserve it. I have been so selfish, so ungrateful, that if you knew all my hard and bitter thoughts you would sure cease to love me at all!"

Mrs. Warde's only reply was to stoop and and kiss her and that kiss uprooted the last fibre of selfishness in her child's heart. Never again did Lottie let vanity stand in the place of duty and in the midst of her trouble she could be humbly thankful that this dear mother was still all her own.

All that night she wept and be-' wailed herself, but when morning dawned and she saw how weary and exhausted Mrs. Warde was looking, Lottie put her good intentions into practice and restrained her sorrow and grief.

While her mother rested, she moved quietly about, dressing the little ones, whom her altered looks and swollen eyes awed into unwonted soberness nor was it till every task had been accomplished that could spare Mrs. Warde fatigue that she seated herself at her mother's feet and wept herself into the sleep of exhaustion.

But stronger arms were sustaining her when, with a start, she awoke. It was not the mild face of her mother, that bent over her and smiled at her, it was Charlie Morison himself, and for a moment she believed herself to be in a happy dream. "Can it be you?" she asked wistfully. "Speak to me, for I know not what to think, nor what to believe." 'You may believe that Charlie Morison has committed no act that disgraces him," said her rejoicing mother, who now stood by. "Need we tell you any more?"

Lottie pressed her hands to her head, and looked from one to the other, till the tender smile on Charlie's lips confirmed the tidings. "I seem too much bewildered to be as glad ais I should be," she exclaimed, "Ami really awake? has there been no robbery after all? That dreadful newspaper? why did I believe the pargraph I heard Sir John read from it?" "Sit down here, you poor, pale child," said Charlie, "and let me help you out of your mystification. I think it began the night before last, when I sought you at Sir John's to say good-by before I went on a hurried journey, and to tell you the tvrofold object of it. I had heard, de»r, that the man who was the cause of all your father's misfortunes was at Birmingham, and Messrs. Smithson freely gave me permission to go there, and see whether my remonstrances, and, if those failed, my threats to expose his nefarious proceedings, would induce him to do justice to your father's widow and orphans." "And you succeeded?"

Beyond my expectations. I have

leagure of utting into

hand

sasum that will

children

with comfort." Lottie was obliged to interrupt him that she might throw her arms around Mrs. Warde's neck, and congratulate her rapturously. Then Charlie himself had to be thanked in loving, tearful whispers and then so many pleasant little plans were discussed for the

widow's future that some time elapsea before they recurred to tlie explanation. "When I had completed my own business, Messrs. Smithson desired me to go to Sheffield and make someinquiries there for them. The drift of these I scarcely understood when I started, but I soon discovered that they had reference to certain suspicions they were entertaining." "Cut not of you, Charlie?"' "No, love they have never had any reason to doubt my integrity, and they have just proved their confidence in it, by promising me an increase of salary. But another of their clerks led into temptation by a love gayetv—•" "I see it all now," sighed Lottie. "Poor Austin!"

Charlie resumed: "My father, for whom, as an old friend, Messrs. Smithson sent, to assist them in breaking the news to his parents, can scarcely bear to speak of the scenes he witnessed. Mrs. Crawley is very ill. The truth was concealed from her as long as possible. It was not until late last night she learnt that it was to hear the tale of her son's guilt that Mr. Crawley wa3 summoned to the city and it appears that no one had suspected how, while Austin was believed to be quietly sleeping, he had packed a portmanteau and stolen out of the house in the dead of night, to embark for America."

And so Lottie's joy in her betrothed's innocence \va.-~ trin n/red by the knowledge that if his parents had been happily spared such deep sorrow, others were enduring it.

She spent her Christmas eve atClapham, but not in the dove-colored silk. She was clad soberly in the dark merino, and heard with drooping head and a troubled conscience, Mrs. Morison tell her how fully she and her husband approved their son's choice, and how her conduct as a daughter and sister had won their esteem long since. "I am not half as good as you think me!" Lottie tearful]y confessed, and deepened their interest in her by her honesty.

After all it was Mrs. Warde who wore the dove-colored silk at her daughter's wedding. It was made up for iier by Lottie herself, who as her needle passed in and out of her work, drew from the events connected with her purchase the lesson every wise or foolish deed conveys to the heart that is opened to receive it.

A GMiANTlC SHAH.

Puncture the Chinese empire by any foreign power, and it would be found to be a gigantic sham. The population of the cities, as enumerated by Marco Polo, has given an exaggerated opinion of the population. Peking, stated at eleven millions, does not contain more than seven ImndrcJ ciiuu3unti,andNanking,stated at the same fabulous population, does not contain at present a population of more than two hundred thousand while as to the population of the entire empire, no actual .census has been taken for more than eleven centuries, and no reliable basis exists for makan estimate of the population. The opinion of the wealth of China is equally exaggerated, for in what does this wealth consist? In the agricultural regions, the improvements are of an economical character there are no fences, and the farm-houses are a mere trumpery collection of mud and straw. There are no great manufactories requiring the investment of capital the mines are not worked to any considerable extent there are no railways, but few steamship companies, and no foreign shipping interest. The houses in the cities are very fragile constructions the boats upon the rivers and canals are of inexpensive material and rude finish the carts and wagons for transportation are of the rudest workmanship, and there i3 not a road in China ten miles long over which a spring vehicle can pass in safety. In what, then, does this imagined wealth really consist? The masses of the people are miserably poor, and the struggle to maintain life is so great that it ceases to be a boon. As the Chinese people prepare their defences with a painted curtain screening dummy soldiers and wooden guns, which become ludicrous when exposed, so, we imagine, if the curtain were raised from the interior of China, and the poverty of its resources exhibited, the fabulous Cathay would be found to-be a sham.

A SIMPLE method of guarding against lqsses by the robbery of coupon bonds is to cut the entire sheet of coupons off and place it in one depository, while the body of the bond is kept in another. The bond without the coupons being unsalable, and the coupons being collectable only, one by one as they mature, the thief who fails to secure both, gains comparatively little by his crime, while the true owner, by proving title to the part which remains in his possession,, has good ground for demanding from the company issuing the security a duplicate of the other. The plan is followed by numbers of capitalists already, and, if we have many more such robberies as that of the Northampton Bank, it will probably be still more generally adopted.

A new theory has been started that the foot-and-mouth disease, which is now so prevalent among cattle in England, is conveyed from one district to another, notwithstanding all the precaution taken against its spread, by birds. A wood pigeon lately shot near Elgin has been declared by veterinary surgeons and competent medical authorities to have been evidently affected by foot-and-mouth disease at the time of its death.
