It was a warm twilight in early Octo- Tjer when the new schoolmaster arrived at the Forks. He came on foot, with Ms traveling-bag slung over his back by means of a cane--a sturdy young man, with red hair, shapely features and an independent gait. He "held his head as if he were determined to thrust it through every obstacle which came in his way, and looked neither to the right nor to the left, though a glance over hid shoulder would have revealed to him, through the fringes of the gigantic pine trees, a sunset picture such as its seldom teen in this cold New England region. There was more than the usual num­ ber of sitters ih the store that night, drawn thitlier by the fact that the new schoolmaster was expected, and, when that gentleman reached the dingy little building, they were all on the steps to greet him. " New schoolmaster, I ca til ate ; slep'n be sosherable awhiie, h^y ?" said the store-keeper, who was a)so the school- agent and mill-owner--the one great man of the place. " Would like to, but the fact is I've been a-travelin' all day, pretty mush, and am gettin' to be rather sharp-set. Besides that, I'm afraid my boarding- mistress '11 get tired o* waitin' for me, and clear away her supper-table." "Ah, yis; waal, pr'aps ye'd better keep along. The widder hain't over- pashunt. Thet's her haouse over there --the secont ou the right. Hope I see "^you well, mister." The second house on the right was cosy and inviting. It was unpainted, but the curtains at the windows were daintily white and clean. Great trees stood and gave it a pleasant, sheltered look, though the leaves had nearly all fallen. A row of milk-pans hanging on the fence reflected the kunset clouds in their glowing surfaces, and suggested the perfection of household neatness. A motley brood of fowls are eating their sapper with a great deal of cluck and clatter from the hands of a rosy, ener­ getic-looking matron who stood in the doorway. A young girl with a com- Slesion like a picture of Greuze was riving a speckled cow up the lane which led to the barn. The cow's horns were fancifully decorated with a gar­ land of the "traveler's joy," still beauti­ ful, though its leaves were slightly dis­ colored by frost, and its white blossoms changed to airy, silver down. The girl's rustic broad-brimmed hat was also decorated with leaves, berries and dried blossoms. The picture was worth see­ ing, but the schoolmaster evidently had not an artist's eye. At the first gknee he said to himself, "Pity that girl doesn't know how to spend her time in a more profitable way than to trim up a cow in all that non­ sense. " The girl colored to the deepest crim­ son when she discovered the stranger's eye upon her, and she disappeared into tlie bam with her cow as quickly as pos­ sible. The woman in the doorway dis p »ed of her dish of corn, felt of her oack hair and made haste to decorate her plain matronly features with a bright, hospitable smiW. " The new schoolmaster, I s'pose," said she, holding out her hand. " I--I don't know," replied he, gaz­ ing after the retreating figure of the young girl in a dazed sort of way. " What!" came in a tone of extreme astonishment from the woman, who re­ garded him .with sudden suspicion. " O, excuse me, the fact is, I am the new schoolmaster. I wasn't thinking, oar rather, I was thinking about some­ thing else." She smiled, and catching the merry twinkle in her eye he laughed aloud, but it was a vexed, embarrassed langh, ut­ terly destitute of mirtb. " She'll find me a different sort of a chap from what she imagines, I rather guess. It'fc- the first time I ever forgot myself because a girl had a pretty face, fend I mean it shall be the last," he said to himself. "Walk in, Mr. Watkins; I kept sup­ per waitin' fur you. I recon ye're pretty hungry travelm' so fur, or did yon ride infctead of travel ? " "You're right, marm, I am hungry. All the dinner I had was a dish of bread and milk at, Grindall's." " Miss Grindall don't pervide for stage passengers ez I should think she would. She's a getting dr.tfnl kind of shiflt*% lately. Ef you'll jest wait a minute or tew I'll stir up the lire a little. The tea's got a mite colti'V "O, yes, lean wait a few minutes when there is such a lively pros|>ect of having something to eat l»efore mo." " Do you follow school-keopin' all the year around, Mr. Watkins ?" *' No, marm, I do a little tin peddling in the summer time. The women folks down below as well as up here have to have their turn at teaching then." "Tin peddlin' is a droatful payin' business, I've heard tell ?" " Well, it is tolerable. 'Taint quite BO genteel as school keeping, but I'm for getting on in the world. I've most paid for a snug little farm already, and I and my mother manage pretty com­ fortably. " " This ain't so bad." thought, the wid­ ow. " He's forehanded enough for m> TOUDg a man, and he's orful took with Fhobe. I never see anything like the way he looked at her I did lot on her marryin' a preacher, but folks so high up in the world hain't so dreadful com­ mon, especially single ones. But, ths*re, it's no uae ; she's so bashful she wc-n't •peak to nobody, won't let nobody git acquainted with her, all I ken say or dew." " Phebe," she called, stepping to the door. "I wish you'd hurry in 'n pour the new schoolmaster's tea for him whilst I fo daown sullar 'n work over my butter, its got tew be done afore dark, yeou kneow." • Phebe appeared with a look of dire distress on her lovely countenance and did as she was bidden, but she did not once lilt her eyes during the whole time she remained in the room. " This bread is first-rate, full as good as mv mother makes, if not better. I shouldn't wonder if you made it your­ self, now," said lie, attempting to speak with his usual jaunty, self-important air. But. for home reason or other, he felt a strange embarrassment, and was sur­ prised «it himself. " What is there about this pesky girl that makes such a fool of me?" he thought, angrily. The distress ou Phebe's face deepened to actual despair as she gasped a hardly- andible "yes." She wished with all her heart that the bread was as heavy as it it had been yesterday, then, perhaps, he might have kept silence. "You're a going to be one of my scholars, i hope," he proceeded, with a glance of open au- miration^tjw^igh given with a rather shamefaced air. He did it to assure himself that he dared to do it, feeling unhappily like the old woman who did not'know whether she was herself or no. Phebe stammered something, which sounded like " I don't know," and moved as far away from the table as pos­ sible. " Bashful as a partridge," he thought. "Well, so much the better; I don't like forward women. She ain't used to see­ ing anyl»ody but lumbermen, and river- drivers, and that kind of clodhoppers, I s'pose, and is kinder flustrated at seein' me. But what do I care alxmt her, any­ how; I've got such a start in the world that I onght to marry a rich woman. Rich widows are plenty every now and then. I don't imagine her mother has got much of any property." As soon as he had finished his meal, Phebe hastily removed the dishes from the table ajul escaped into the kitchen, and he saw nothing more of her until the next morning. She appeared then in celestial blue, which harmonized won­ derfully with the rich sunburn on her blonde cheeks, and one of the other boarders, a handsome, stalwart voung lumberman, who sat beside her at the tuble, regarded her with devotion and talked to her in a low tone--so low that no one else was able to hear what he was saying. Phebe seemed filled with confusion, and, beyond a blushing yes or no, made .no reply, bu* the schoolmaster became instantly fired with jealousy, and com­ menced to draw all attention to himself by his boastful and pompous talk. He talked both of commerce and learning until the two young lumbermen looked properly subdued and became silent. " Speakin' of books," said the land­ lady, " I bought one of a peddler last summer. It has got an orful pooty cov­ er, but there's poetry inside; p'ra'ps veu'd like to read that. I can't say as how I enjoy sech ffeadin' myself, but Phebe she's all kerried away with it." " I generally make my own poetry," said the schoolmaster, grandly. An awed hush succeeded this an­ nouncement, and for the first time Phebe lifted her eyes and looked the conse­ quential gentleman full in the face. It was a shy, brief glance, but filled with half-awed, half-admiring interest. The schoolmaster started when he met their gnze as if he had received a blow, and from that momeut he was a changed man, so bound by the chains of love that his mind took no more ambitious flights ; so anxious with its doubts and fears that ho lost his flippant manners, and became subdued and silent; so humbled by its insight that he no lon­ ger held his head above his fellows ; so softened and changed by its iiiftuence that his mercenary projects all went to naught. At the end of the week it was voted by the other boarders that the school­ master was a "good feller, awfully dif- frant from what he seemed at fin-t." At the end of the month he was called "kinder crumpy," at the end cf two months it waa surmised that he was in love. Never was lover so tormented. The shyness of his lady-love was remark­ able; she was never visible except at meal time.4 and in the school-room. He spent all his loisure time in planning ow he could meet*her. but his plans always failed. If he found her alone in the kitchen at work, she would drop whatever she had in her hands and slip away in a flash. If he ittempte 1 to' walk to school witli her she would man­ age to elude him with truiy wonderful adroitness. Once he hid lxehiad a tree to waylay her on her way to school, but she s'<emed to guess his intentions By intuition and walked a half-mile out of her way to reach her destination by an­ other road. Spelling-school evenings, when all the young fellows in the region round about congregated in the old school-house, each one waiting on tht- door-steps, wh«jn the exercises were over, to whisper, " May I see you home?" m rosy maidens ears, Phebe clung t > the skirts of some sober mar­ ried female for protection, and insisted on going home in her shadow. In school-hours there was no op t>ort unity for love-making. Phel>e was a model scholar. She never missed in her les­ sons--she neither whispered nor laughed. Jtl the other girls were continually ask-' ing questions of the master. They hung round him at recess; they lav­ ished upon him all sorts of coquettish attentions ; but Phebe was never trou­ bled over her arithmetic, and never ap­ proached him from o e (lay's end to an­ other. So the days went on, and the term was nearly ended. He had spoken to Phebe's mother, and she had ex­ pressed her pleasure at receiving him as a son in-'aw, but declared that she "conldn't dew notliiu' with the gal ; she was headstrong, as well as bashful, and, if she were to speak to her, it would only make the unhappy matter worse " It was a clear, bri ;ht, winter morning. Tin.1 clouds slept far aloft above the highest boughs of the forest through which the school uaster po*-ed on hit w:iv tosc'-ool. An opening in the trees revealed the snow-covered peak of a dis­ tant mountain which shone like a.beau­ tiful star in the fair bosom of day. The wind wafted the spicy odor of the pines. A brook, singing under its prison wall of ica, seemed like a voice from fairy­ land promising spring. The btillness surrounded one like a dream. The schoolmaster hung his head in deep thought. He must speak to Phebe. All hi* subtle plans to accomplish this end had failed heretofore, and the time when he should leave the place was nearing. He had been trying to find some excuse to keep her after school for a long time, in (tpite of -its being held a great dis­ grace by the older girls to endure this punishment, though the boys and the smaller girls were often kept until near­ ly dark in the afternoon. But when was Phebe known to miss a lessen, or to oom- mit * misdemeanor of any sort ? " The only thing I can resort to is to keep her after school on the pretense of having discovered her whisj-ering or laughing," he said to himself. " It is mean, I know, alfired mean, but there's no other way." Fortune turned her face toward him that day, however. For some reason or other, Phebe wus in an a&sent-minded mood and blundered unaccountably in her grammar lesson. Having once failed, she went from bad to worse, and got into such a maze of bewilder­ ment that all the other girls laughed at her. " You wfll stay a while after school to-night, Miss Phebe, and we'll see about this lesson," said he, more sternly than he had intended to apeak, with a ring of triumph in his tone. A murmur of disappointment ran round the room, but one glance at the determined face of the master was suffi­ cient to hush i^. Phebe accepted the punishment with comparative coolneps. She colored deeply, of course, but she neither hid her laoe in her hands, nor wept, nor betrayed angry defiance. But the master was in a fever of un­ easiness during the remainder of the ses­ sion. He half expected rebellion. He feared that she would attempt to leave the school-room with the others in spite of his command, and sternly resolved to be on hia guard against such a proceed­ ing on her part. His fears were groundless, however; when the bell rang for dismissal Phebe remained quietly in her seat, her demure eyes fixed upon her book. There had been a great deal of laughing and whis­ pering, a great many failures in lessons that day, but it was a remarkablo fact that no one but Phebe was subjected to so dire a punishment therefor. Ventur­ ing to l#ok up, she fontid herself aloue^! with tlii> master, and burst into a flooa of terrified tears. " Phebe," he said, in a tender tone, approaching her desk, " don't be mad with me for keeping you here ; 'twasu't on account of that miserable lesson, but because you wouldn't give me any chance to speak to you ; you wouldn't let me tell you how much I set by you. I want you to l>e my wife." Phebe's weeping progressed with re­ newed vigor. " Tell me, Phebe, are you so mad that you will never forgive me ? Won't yon lift your head and give mo just one look ? " «, There seemed to bo no hope that this request would be granted. "Tell me, Phebe, is it because I've fot red hair that you won't have me ? I no^it's pretty red, but then I've seen a city preaelier with redder," in a tone which implied that he expected doubt at such an astonishing statement. Pftwbe shook tier prostrate head em­ phatically. Her own hair approached this despised tint. "Then what is it you have again* t me ? Am I too poor ? I haven't any­ thing but my farm and its stock, and they ain't quite paid for, I know, but I meuu to have more b-jtore long--that is, if you'll have me ; if you won't, I don'i care what becomes of me." Phebe again shook her head very de­ cidedly. t" Then I ain't genteel enough, or p'raps you like that curly-headed chap " Well, then, what's to hinder you from having me, I should like to know ? Phebe, I'd rather have you be my wife than to own all the big farms, all the that works m the woods better," in a faint tone, ghastly with foreboding. Another still more decided negative, big lumber in Boostick county ? Will you marry me ?" A renewed flood of tears was heard from the depths of the weH-soaked gram­ mar at this point, but there was a differ­ ent kind of motion to the head, a slow, upward movement of ' chin. " Hurrah !" shouted the master, lift­ ing the girl to her feet, and coming in contact with a great deal of briny moist­ ure as he touched his hps to her cheek. •' It's all right now. I ain't going to the insane asylum, I shan't commit suicide after all; and as for you, Phebe, I know I can make" you happy. When I first came to the Fonts, I thought there was nothing in the world but property 'n learning, but now I see my mistake." And ho shouted again, until the whole neighborhood resounded with his jovial voice. _____________ Two Organs.

O'Connell at the Hnstiugs In the court, or in tho camp--at the bar, or on the iostwim--it made no odds to O'Gvjnnell; he was at home anywhere where wit and intelligence were re­ quired ; and, if keen repartee «;ould come in play, be sure he would not be found wanting. In short, never was there a more dangerous man to attack. The following shows the man's ready wit, and is certainly worth tolling : It was when O'Gonnell was contesting the city of Dublin with Mr. West for a seat in Parliament, and the two candi­ dates were before their constituents in the great hall, or rotunda, of the Court House. As might be supposed, the announcement of two such spt akers on such an occasion filled the nouse well- nigh to suffocation. Both were in the best of humor, suffering nothing to drag. In the course of his remarks, O'Gon­ nell, in a humorous manner, alluded to his opponent's personal appearance, de­ claring that Hogarth's line of beauty didn't touch his face anywhere, if it touched his head at all. It was not so much what was said as the manner in which he said it that convulsed the people. WThen Mr. West got the floor ne at­ tempted to pay liis friend off for tnis ; and, after a funny prelude, he ex­ claimed : " It is all very well for Mr. O'Connell to attack me upon my personal appear­ ance ; but let me tell you if you could see Daniel O'Connell without his wig on, he wouldn't show a face nor head much to boast of 1" Before the people could find time to lau^h, aud to the utter surprise of every­ body, Mr. O'Connell stepped quickly upon the rostrum, close by Mr. We t's side, and, with a flourish, pulled off his wig, at the sam£ time exclaim­ ing : " There 1 Now my wig is off, which of us two is the better looking ?" The effect was electric. The giant form, with the grandest head in Ire­ land, by the side of the diminutive per­ son of the other, showed to wonderful advantage; and who shall say how much the quaint passage, coming so unex­ pectedly, may have had to do with re­ turning the great agitator to Parlia­ ment ? »> Public opinion on the subject of faithless husbands is very strong in Somerset, Ky. Mr. Love was that kind of an offender. His wife led a mob against him. He fled hastily, without coat, trousers, or boots,.with tho crowd in close pursnt. At the end of a mile he was overtaken, and left suspended, head downward, from a tree. He war almost frozen to death when, two hours afterw-ard, a humane preacher cut him down. >• Abolition of Millstones. I found all the Minneapolis millers taking out their millstones and subs' it ut- ing steel rollers in their places. Wheat by the new Hungarian process, is not? ground but cr.teked. These rollers are about thirty inches long and eight inchest in diameter. It takes five sets of steel rollers to finish the flohr. Each set of rollers runs closer 1han the preceding. After the wheat passes e^ch set of rollers it. is bolted or sifted through coarse cloth. This cloth lets the disintegrated particles of wheat through, and passes oft the bulky and large pieces, which are run through another and a closer set of •rollers, and cracked again. The last rollers have little elee but wheat hulls and the waxy germs of the wheat, which do not crack up, but smaa^ down l:ko a piece of wax. The germ of a kernel of wheat is not good food. It makes fbur black. By the new system of cracking the kernel instead of grinding it, this germ is not ground, but flattened out, and silted or bolted out, while the starchy portions of the wheat are crushed into powdered wheat or flour.--Chicago Tribune.

The London Lancet calls attention to the expediency of employing male at­ tendants for male patients. It is a mis­ take to suppose that women are neces­ sarily the only good nurses. In the opinion of some persons, who claim to be judges of the question, they are neither so quiet, so self-possessed, so precise, nor so strong as men. It is also alleged that no man who has been nursed by a gentle-handed male servant would desire, in any subsequent illness, to be attended by a female. It is said that whatever element of the female charac­ ter or influence is desired in the sick- cliamber can be best contributed by the presence of a mother, a wife, or a sister. When the circumstances exclude these forms of luxury it can seldom be neces­ sary. If the employment of men to nurse nien were encouraged, a great diffi­ culty would be surmounted, and a good social reform' begun. Wise Words of a Willing Witness.

A New York firm dealing in pictures, mottoes, etc., was visited bj a small dealer from a village over in Jersey, aud tlie man was greatly struck with the motto: "God Bless Our Home." "Now, that's something original and unique,** hfe said, as he held one at arm's length. "Down in our town we just hanker after original designs, and unique literature, and I believe I can sell a hundred of these. You may make my order an even hundred." He went away well pleased, and his goods were duly shipped, and nothing more was heard from him until the other day. Then he entered tlie store to make some new purchases, and he was asked to look at a new style of mottoes just out. "I hain't no more interest in mottoes," he sighed, as he glanced at "What is home without a mother? * "You remember I bought a hundred of you last fall?" "Yes: and how did they sell?" "Well, everybody seemed to hanker after 'em, and they went off like hot- cakes. I sold the whole lot out in two weeks, and in less than a month there were three slander suits, two applications for divorce, and a dozen assault and bat­ tery cases in the courts." "But you don't lay it to tho mottoes, do you?" , \ "Well, I dunno. l>e lived in Jersf 27 years, and been in this business over 20, and I think a dollar chroino, showing a pretty fair hill, a glorious sunset, and a decent $ort of pond with a duck in it, hits our case a little better than anything else. I've got to get something for a change, and if you haven't anything good in refine scenery I guess I'll try 'em on Washington crossing the Dela­ ware and a few Daniels in the Lion's Den."-- Wall Street Daily News. . "WHAT," asked the teacher, "was the great obstacle Washington enc(Miut- ered in crossing the Delaware ?" Aud the smart-, bad boy thought for & " min­ ute and then made answer, " The toll man."
