Byak! nd and thoughtful arrangement on the part of their employers, every domestic in the house oL' Sir John Dayton,'baronet and bunker, received his or her salary precisely ouo week before Christmas day.

Very bright and tempting look tho tiny pile of sdvereigns that Lottie Warde, Miss Dayton's own maid, carried away to her chamber, and sat meditating over, with a cloud on her pretty fnce 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 loving 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 licr palm. She had met at the house of an old friend of tor late father, a young man so well connected that many wondered ho should think of wedding a girl who was "in service." Mr. Charles Morison, they argued, with his good prospects and excellent situation in the office of Smithson Brothers, ought to look higher for a wife than Lottie Warde, whose father had died banknipt, 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 those 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 tho 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 her affianced husband looked down upon her because of her position. This fancy—for it was no more—had mado her shy of meeting them, and unwilling to accept the invitations so kindly sent to her. But Charlie h'id made a point of her acceding to his parents'* wish that she should join tho family party they always gathered round them at their handsome houso at Clapham on the eve of the great festival and as Miss Dayton had cheerfully consented to spare her, she had uot been able to excuse herself.

Naturally timid and shrinking from strangers, Lottio looked forward to this 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 from whom he had expectations and her anxiety that they should think well of her, culminated in the inquiry, "AVi it shall I wear?"

It was no uso discussing this question with her betrothed. She knew he would say that nothing could be in bettor taste than the well-fitting, dark merino that had been her best dr^s

T« nf a certain dove-colored

ably. It was true that such anj

jjensive purchase would absorb every

•farthing in her possession, but she chose to ignore this. So strong grew the temptation that when Lottie went that evening to visit her mother she lingered long at the mercer's window, and decided that on the very morrow tho dove-colored silk should be her own

and toys when Lottie entered, for they loved her dearly, and Mrs. Warde, though she had been wearing a very anxious face, as she stitched busily at some childish garment, contrived to smile at her eldest daughter, who, however, \tas not easily deceived. "Something has gone wrong, mother I am sure of it by your looks. What is it?" "Nothing you can alter, dear nothing in fact, that I ought to dwell upon.

I heard, by chance, that the man through whose roguery your father failed has returned to England, and is in prosperous circumstancea and it

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, ehild," 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 on Sundays till evening 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 sharply told not to tease 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 liobert?—ho is elected pupil teacher at his school. Of course he is—I knew he would bel he has worked so hard for it, dear, good boy!" and she ran across the room to kiss tho studious lad, who warmly returned her caresses. "Then you're glad of it, Lottio? So am I, only I think mother's bothered a bit about the books I shall want." "Will they cost much?" asked his sister. "Well, dear, it seems much to persons of our limited income," Mrs. Wardo replied. "And he must have a now suit of clothes. But I hope to manago it without running into debt, if you can help me a little."

Lottio did not speak, and her mother thoughtfully added, "The girls will have to do without tho 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 miserablo 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-humor—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 poople 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.

since the commencement of the wondering housekeeper, "say that autumn. But Lottie had her snare or

Miss Dayton 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 never 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 yther, 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- asked for," she gasped to

Mrs. Crawley herself answered

lf ma

de the cirl feel her own

ful 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, for Mr. Crawley had been at Smithson's all day, taking the place (she believed) of Charlie Morieon, whose absence seemed to have put tho firm very much out of their way. There was nothing amiss, was there!" she added, as she took a closer surrey 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 gay and care* 1MS, whose spedthrift habits had often displeased his parents, had preserved his integrity while Charle* 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 taker 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 largo sums of money that were missing. "His father was hero this morning, as soon as the news was made public," the porter went on—"such a respeotable old gentleman."

Hero 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 gradually expand into the bright, intelligent man, must be well-nigh crushed beneath the blow that had so suddenly fallen upon thom. 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 tear3 her burning eyes had shed.

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

Never again would Lottie accuse 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 toand 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 indeed I don't deserve it. I havo 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 kls9 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 wopt and be-, walled 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 soborncss 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 another, that bent over her and smiled at her, it was Charlie Morison himself, and for a moment she believed hersolf 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 as 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 twofold object of it. I had heard, dear, 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 just had the pleasure of putting into your mother's hands a sum that will enable her to educate her 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 the explanation. s"When I had completed my own business, Messrs. Smithson desired me to go to Sheffield and make some inquiries there for them. The drift of I these I scarcely understood when I started, but I soon discovered that they had reference to certain suspicions they were entertaining." "But 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 of gayety—" "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 was summoned to tho 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 uight, to embark for America."

And so Lottie's joy In her betrothed's innocence was tempered by tho knowledge that if his parent^ had been happily spared such deep sorrow, others were enduring it.

She spent her Christmas eve at Clapham, 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 tearfully 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 her 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 GIGANTIC SILL AM.

Puncture tho 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 or eight hundred thousand,and Nanking,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 tho rudest workmanship, and there is 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 asfeam.

A SIMPLE method of guarding against losses 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 falls 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 1s 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.
