LEX WORTH'S REVERSE. m#*? f'-it.1. 1 fem; '*h*y Miss Lenworth sat by the drawing- zoom window, in her dainty muslin dress, the cool sea-breeze blowing through the lace curtains, stirring the loose, heavy f ; , masses of her raven hair, and faintly *'h!* tinging her cheeks. ... Those languid summer days were very -delightful, spent in that great house, with its cool, airy rooms, furnished with ; ; all the elegance that good taste, aided by wealth, loves to collect • and here naught that could gratify the most fas­ tidious was lacking. Miss Lenworth, arriving at this, her guardian's residence, -two months previously, wearied with the excitement of the London season, was s very grateful for its quiet and seclusion, necessary on account of the illness of her guardian's wife; but this was grow­ ing monotonous, and she was already be­ ginning to sigh for some excitement, some new conquest. Her reverie was suddenly interrupted fey a young lady exclaiming, in eager, *}&*•* tone®» " Oh, Alberta! where have yoa been ? I have been searching for 7on everywhere. I have such delightful JJ|t, news for you. Do come back from the •' land of dreams, throw off that air of su- "nem indifference, and ask me what it is ; for I'm sure, though you do look so unconcerned, you are dying to know." " Some one is coming," returned Miss •**?v. Lienworth. "Yes ; and I can imagine it Xty •> must be none other than your dashing tw * Hamilton, the inimitable and enviable *«' a** knight who has stolen our Ethel's heart; for you surely would not have taken so ' much pains to make yourself charming : 4^- for any one else." She certainly was a charming little • - creature, this Ethei Wesson, with her , > ui -delicate blonde complexion, laughing .4*^ blue eyes, and gleaming golden curls, rim falling in rich profusion over neck and shoulders, sncl aftiiiglii^with tho dclicate * ^ lace that increaeed the beauty of her blue •-*' -il; silk evening'dress. • ,, 1Hl-i "Some one else," she retorted, with a grjjiij on her cheek; " some one you will „ worth dressing for. And you den't 1 " care in the least who it is ! Ihe queen of hearts is so sure that, be he prince or peasant, knight or page, he will bow -at ner shrine; she will not even take the trouble to inquire who this unexpected arrival may be! I would punish you for your indiilereiioe if I could do so with­ out depriving myself of the pleasure of communicating such unexpected news. Know, then, that papa has received a letter from Hamilton, stating that his particular friend, Col Wolverton, the most elegant of men, the hero of heroes, will accompany him home, and spend a few weeks here. We may expect them to dinner to-day. I assure you this is a foeman worthy of your steel; and I ad­ vise you to burnish up your armor, for I propose entering the lists in opposition to yofe." And the gay girl danced off without waiting to note the effect of her words. Miss Lenworth went slowly up to her room; but, although it was within an hour of dinner-time, she did not com­ mence dressing. Sitting by her window, her eyes, glowing now with a fire that told of the passionate soul within, again wandered seaward, while the flush on her eheck, that something in Ethel's •words had called up, grew brighter and brighter. Memory wandered back to the time when she first met this man, the mention of whose name affected her vis­ ibly. Six years previously she had met him at a little country town, which •was then her home, and whither he had -come with a college friend to spend the -summer. Young, and ignorant of the ways of the world, this handsome, refined f ntleman, with his stories of London e--of the wondrous occurrences in what was, to her, a 'foreign land--soon XK>t only captivated her fancy, but won her love. She was sitting, one day, on the bonk oI the river, under a Bhadowy elm, whose drooping branches concealed her from view, when Edward Wolverton and his friend parsed by, bent on a shooting ex­ pedition. She heard her name men­ tioned jestingly by his friend; and, with A careless laugh, Edward Wolvetton re- h*M iHru. »il j 3t plied, "In love with that awkward, ignorant country gial ? What an opinion Jrou must have of my taste ! Can't a fel-ow amuse himself a little without being accused of serious intentions !" Stung to the heart, she staggered rather man walked homeward; and, once safe in her own room, she sat down to think of the few weeks that had passed like a happy, blissful dxeun, and of this rude awakening. Even in the first mo- iiients of her bitfer grief the pride of I-or nature rose paramount, and she deter­ mined to be revenged. It was no very terrible revenge that she wished for-- only to make him suffer as she had done --to win his love, then east it scornfully away. A few weeks after that neve^to-be- forgotten day, her father died; and, after spending; vfiimi A,fc a fashionable boarding-school, she became a member of the family of Mr. Weston, who had been appointed her guardian. In those years she had not forgotten her resolve. Tt prompted her to redouble her exer­ tions in acquiring knowledge. If she must always be awkward, she would not be ignorant also ; at the end of that time, she was the most accomplished young lady in the establishment. Three years had greatly altered her appearance; the thin form had rounded to perfect sym­ metry ; the face, pale still, except when some emotion lent a passing flush, was exquisitely shaped; the expression of the mouth, perhaps a little too decided, was softened by the dreamy look that was habitual to the deep black eyes. But three years had taken away quite as much as they gave her. The simple, trusting faith of the little country girl who had poured her heart's devotion at Edward Wolverton's feet was gone for ever. She had grown selfish, cold, and worldly. In all these years she had never once met Edward Wolverton; and, of course, her revenge had not been con­ stantly in her mind. Neither had she entirely lostsightof it; and now the time had come. Presently she heard the noise of wheels, and at the same time the quick patter of Ethel's little boots, and the rustle of her dress in the passage outside her door. She ran out "Ethel," she cried, "I have a whim that I want you to gratify. I wish you to introduce me to Col. Wolverton by mv middle name--as Miss Emerson. Will you ? Hamilton does not know I am here, so he will not have mentioned my name to him." "But why?" replied EtheL "Are yoa afraid if he knows what a famous coquette he has to deal with he will be on his guard against your beguiling arts ? Oh, I pity him, but I won't betray you, never fear. Why ain't you dressed' You will be late for dinner." And Miss Ethel vanished down the staircase to receive her guests. Miss Lenworth returned to her room, and began a hasty toilet--hasty, but carefully suited to her style and com­ plexion. When she appeared in the drawing-room she was attired in a black dress of some thin texture, that displayed to advantage the gleaming white marble of her rounded arms and shoulders. The heavy masses of black hair, that fell far below her waist when unbound, were gathered in a loose coil behind, with no ornament save a cluster of yellow lilies; and round her throat ana wrists she wore a necklace and bracelets of curiously carved amber, clear and transparent as crystal, in gold­ en settings. A gleam of triumph shone in her eyes as she beheld Col. Wolverton's start of admiration; then, wreathing her hps in a sweet smile, which added to the beauty of the pale, haughty face, her deep eyes drooped beneath his gaze until the long lashes almost hid them. Ethel turned away her head, to hide the sparkle of amusement in her eyes, for it was by no means her wont to be so gracious to strangers. As the summer days flew by, filled up with boat excursions, rural drives, and walks along the beach, in which Col. Wolverton was Miss Lenworth's constant attendant, it became evident that that young lady 's plans had succeeded per­ fectly. • She sat before the piano, one cool September evening, running her fingers listlessly over the keys. She had de­ clined going to the beach w ith the oth­ ers, on the pica of a headache; and now she sat alone, the purple twilight shad­ ows falling around her, ana a numb, des­ olate pain at her heart. Suddenly her voice broke through the slow, wailing notes that had been dropping from her lingers like falling sea-spray, in a calmer strain---" Sweet Bonnie Boon." A tremulous throb sounded in her voice, at the second verse, about the "false lover." Through the open window stepped Col. Wolverton to her side, where he stood for a moment in silence. •4 If it were not impossible, I should think you had felt the pain of a ' false lover' once, you sing that with so much feeling," remarked the Colonel. " I was not aware I had a listener," she replied, without noticing his remark. "I thought you had gone to the beach with Ethel and Hamilton." " I did; but the attraction here was so great that it drew me back in spite of myself." She turned her face away from his ear­ nest gaze; and the lashes drooped over her eyes, veiling the ptda that shadowed itself there. Then came the words she had expected--eager, eloquent words of passionate love and entreaty. But no syllable answered him. Emboldened by her silence, he raised the little hand that rested on the keys and pressed it to his lips; instantly she snatched it away, and rose to her feet. " I am very sorry tor you, CoL Wol­ verton, but I cannot be your wife. You are right; I had a false lover once; he stole my rose of love, and I have never had any to give any one since." " A false lover--you!" exclaimed he; " and you have no love to give me, when all thsse weeks you have been leading me on, giving me to understand you were not indifferent to me ?" " Leading you on--I don't know--have I?" she carelessly answered; then, mod­ ulating her tones to a careful imitation of his, as she remembered them when he uttered those words, she said, " Can'_ one amuse one's self a little without be ing accused of serious intentions ?" A flush rose to his very forehead, and he looked at her with an expression of utter bewilderment, through which a flash of recognition soon broke. " You are Alberta Lenworth," he ex- " From the tort you reminded elaimed v me of some one--I ooiild not tell whom --but now I see Alberts, My own little Alberta, you loved me once; you cannot be indifferent to me now. I was weak and foolish--but I did not mean what I said. Oh, Alberta! forgive those cruel words, and tell me you love me still." Miss Lenworth's dark eyes flashed " Forgive you ?" she said. "You don't know what you ask. You don't know *vhn.t II CTTCtli "TO" diet TT***. vn-n stroyed for ever my faith in truth and goodness; you took away my every hope and joy in life. But the ' ignorant little country girl' had pride enough to keep her heart from breaking, and to make her wish to be revenged upon you." _ He looked at her for a moment In silence. There was no shadow of tender­ ness in the dark, flashing eyes, no flush on the pale, proud face, only a scornful curl in the red lips. He saw there was no relenting, and turned away with an aching heart. _ *' " Revenge !" he said. " Well, if that was it. And without another word or gJ was gone, and, perhaps, for ever. As the thought of what she had sacri­ ficed for her pride swept over her. she bent her proud head, and wept unre­ strainedly ; for she had learned, in those brief weeks, to love him at* dearly as in those old days, when he won her heart but to trample it under his feet. Had he returned then, love might have con­ quered ; but pride had too long held the ascendency to lose its oontrol for any length of time. " Ere Ethel and Hamilton returned, she was as seemingly indifferent as ever, and listened, unmoved, to Ethel's announce­ ment that Col. Wolverton had left for town by the 8 o'clock train. A sudden recollection of a business engagement necessitated his immediate departure. * * * * At the beginning of the winter season, we see Miss Lenworth the bride of a millionaire--beautiful, admired and en­ vied by all. Immediately after her mar­ riage Col. Wolverton sailed in a steamer bound for Jamaica. Ill-fated steamer! Though many prayers followed her over the treacherous billows, yet she went down in the unfathomable deep; and to the anxious hearts that looked long for the coming of their loved ones that heart-breaking message came, " All on board perished" Even those hope-destroying words could add nothing to Miss Lenworth's grief when she learned what a miserable mess of pottage her revenge had proved. Yarlety of Races in Russia. This ethnological variety is the result of a policy inaugurated by Catherine II. So long as the southern frontier was pushed forward slowly, the acquired ter­ ritory was regularly filled up by Russian peasants from the central provinces, who were anxious to obtain more land and more liberty than they enjoyed in their native villages ; but, during " the glori­ ous age of Catherine," the frontier was pushed forward so rapidly that the old method of spontaneous emigration no longer sufficed to people the annexed territory. The Empress had recourse, therefore, to organized emigration from foreign countries. Her diplomatic agents in Western Europe were ordered to, use all possible efforts to induce artisans and peasants to emigrate to Russia, and spe­ cial agents were sent to various countries to supplement the efforts of the diploma­ tists. Thousands accepted the invita­ tion, and were for the most part settled on the land which had been recently the pasture ground of the nomadic hordes. This policy was adopted by succeeding sovereigns, and has been continued in an intermittent fashion down to the present day, and the consequence of it has been that South­ ern Russia now contains a variety of races such as is to be found, perhaps, nowhere else in Europe. The official statistics of New Russia alone--that is to say, the provinces of Ekaterinosalf, Tauride, Kherson and Bessarabia--enumerate the following nationalities: Great Russians, Little Russians, Poles, Servians, Monte­ negrins, Bulgarians, Moldavians, Ger­ mans, English, Swedes, Swiss, Frenoh, Italians, Greeks, Armenians, Tartars, Mordwa, Jcv;:: and Gypsies. The relig­ ions are almost equally numerous. The statistics speak of Greek Orthodox, Ro- TP.;.:: CuthoI'"^; Grefforiftns, Lutherans^ Calvinists, Anglicans, Mennonites, Sep­ aratists, Pietists, Karaim Jews, Talmud- ists, Mohammedans, and numerous Rus­ sian sects, such as the Molokani and the Skoptsi or Eunuchs. America herself could scarcely show a more motley list in her statistics of population. --From Russia, by D. Mackenzie Wallmoe, M. A. , Clocks to he Superseded. The idea of utilizing electricity as a means of maintaining uniformity and regularity between public clocks has been put in practice for some time, but the difficulty is that the system is not automatic; that is to say, some second agency is required in order to apply the information brought by telegraph to the correction of the clock. An Austrian engineer, Herr Mayshofer, has hit upon the expedient of pneumatic tubes, which are laid down along the streets, and can be branched off in any direction. By means of the force thus employed the hands of the various clocks can be moved forward at intervals of a minute 01* half minute, in accordance with the time in­ dicated by the standard time-pieces in the observatory, so that exact uniformity can be maintained without difficulty in the time shown on any number of dials. In tlys way the necessity for separate time-measuring apparatus for each dial is obviated, and by a simple contrivance, somewhat similar to that which sets "pneumatic bells" ringing, the hands will simply be urged forward at definite short intervals. Cheap €tas. Gas is made in San Francisco from sawdust, tar, and rubbish, such as rags, old leather, bones--in fact, everything that is usually thrown away---in the proportions of 25 per dent, tar, the same percentage of sawdust, and 50 per cent of the miscellaneous matter. The in­ ventor says he can make this gas for 25 cents 1,000 feet, and furnish it to cus­ tomers at $1. The light produced is said to be equal to that from coal gas.

What hu»- > band or wife can be cheerful, smiling and pleas­ ant when constantly suffering from the tortures of some dread disease ? Perhaps the husband's liver becomes torpid, and he experiences bitter, disagreeable taste or nausea, has chilly sensa­ tions, alternating with great heat and dryness of the surface of his body, pain in his sides, shoulders or back, eyes and skin are tinged with yellow, feels dull, indisposed and dizzy. Through his suffering he becomes gloomy, de­ spondent, and exceedingly irritable in temper. Instead of resorting to so reliable a remedy as a few small doses of Dr. Pierce's Purgative Pel­ lets, and following up their action with the use of Golden Medical Discovery, to work the bili­ ary poison ©ut of the system and purify the blood, if he play the part of a " penny wise and pound foolish " man he will attempt to econo­ mize by saving the small cost of these medi­ cines. Continuing to suffer, his nervous system becomes impaired, and he is fretful and peevish --a fit subject to become embroiled in "domes­ tic infelicity." Or the good wife may from her too-laborious duties or family cares, have be­ come subject to such chronic affections as are peculiarly incident to her sex, and, being re­ duced in blood and strength, suffering from backache, nervousness, headache, internal fe­ ver, and enduring pains too numerous to men­ tion, she may become peevish and fretful--any­ thing but a genial helpmate. In this deplor­ able condition of ill-health, should she act wisely and employ Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre­ scription, it will, in due time, by its cordial, tonic and nervine properties, restore her health and transform her from the peevish, scolding, irritable-tempered invalid to a happy, cheerful wife.
