The society which be is striving to enter, turns up its lip at him. shuts its door upon him. and when meeting him abroad, in the street or elsewhere, flings him a supercilious look which mskes bim feel how utterly small, mean and little, as well as fraduiemly base a man he ia tniliionarie though he be, he can neither force, wheedle nor extract a glanoe of recognition frotn society. It acouta him, turns up its nose at him. as if some offensive odor arose from his person, and make# him drain the cup of humiliation to the lees. He goes home and finds that his wife and ohildren have experienced the same treatment, and he realizes 10 the very marrow in his bones that he is rioh, but that everybody knows that he made his money like a scoundrel that his dishonorably gotten wealth is of very little account, since it will not serve hiin and his family as a passport into a society that despisea him He sells his house and removes itnto another rioh and splendid neighborhood —but with the same result and he reslit«s the fact that he ia a flat-—a su«pioion that has haunted him for some time, but of wbich he now no longer entertains a doubt.

Then a change becnttie apparent in her husband. He could not long remain blind to the fact that his lo*e was not returned lie sought the company of those whose gay-

nd despair of his soul^ Tr.is shallow joy was unsatisfactory, however and impelled by powerful longings for love he went astray to waim his heait bv a strange fire.

Katie saw herself in the midst of a gorgeous desolatiion, burning with a tliiril unquenchsble by the golden stream-* that flowed around her panting with a unjAr not all the food of flattery and admiration could appesse. .7

She reproached her*husband lor dealing her thus and he answered her with angry and desperate taunts, of deception, and a total lack of love, which 6mote her conscience heavily. •You do not care for me,' he cried— •then why do you complain that I bestow elsewhere the affections you have met with coldnexs?'

But it is wrong, and sinful,' Kstie remonstrated. Yes 1 know it,* said her husband fiercely- 'It is the evil fruit of an evil seed. And who sowed that seed? Who gave me a hand without a heart—who became a sharer of my fortune, but gave me no «hare in aympathy—who devoted me to the fate of a loving unloved husband? Nay, do not weep, and clasp your hands, and sigh and sob with such desperation of patience-—for I say nothing you do not deserve to hear.' •Very well,* ssid Katie calming 'Twill not complain. I, will no? say our reproches are undesrved^i But granting that I am the cold deceitful thing you call me—-vou know this state of things cannot continue.' •Yes I know it.' 'Wellf i,'-* /, f. jr

Mr. Wellington's brow gathered darkly: his eyes flashed with determination, his lips curled with scorn. •I have made up my mind,' said he, 'thai we should not live together any longer. I am tired of being called tbe husband ofthe splendid Mrs. Wellington. I will move in my cirole you shall shine in yours. I will place no restraint ou vour actions nor shall you on mine. We will be fre%.' 'But the world!'shrieked Katie, ftlfhliling ^The world will admire you the same— and what more do you desire?' asked ber husband bitterly. 'This marriage of hsnds and not of hearts, is mockery. We have played the farce long enough. Few know the conventions) meaning of the term /m»band and wife, but do you know what it should mean! Do you only feel that the only true union is that of love and sympa* thy? Then enough of this mummery!— Farewell. I go lo consult friends about the terms of a separation. Nay, do not tremble. and cling to me now—for I shall be liberal to you. As much of my fortune *hall be vours a* you desire.1

Iteturn your .Mugs.

In former day. when Return J. Meigs was Postmaster General, he had occasion 10 address a letter lo a newlv installed deputy in a small town 'down east'. The depu ty made out to read the body of the scrawl at the bottom. After puzzling over it, atid scratching his head an hour or two he could make only peremiory order —^"Return your Mugs." He applied to his predecessor and to all the justices ol the Peace, and lo that Quorum and Cusios Rotylorum. school master and she parson, hut tliev could give him no satisfactory elucidation of the new order. He determined to take a journey to the shier town, and there consult with the learned lawyer, who wa* postmaster of thai growing town, and was well posted up in all the rules snd mysteries of the law of letters. Upon stating the case, this able civilian having obtained hi* reputation by never being at a loss on any subject immediately informed him that there were a great many post-offices in the country in an intermediate stale between the large cities and small towns, and in which they had no! quite risen to the importance of having regular and fixed boxes for individuals, bnt used mog instead: snd eaoh tn had hi« designated mug, in which his lettes were plaoed. This wa* clear and the deputy returned home much enlightened snd comforted. And ever after, si Ihe bottom of sll his quarterly returus he added a noia bene "No mugs used at thisoffioe." What particular construction was put upon this ofl recurring i.ote at the department, was never divulged. u—.r n'i 1 in I
