The Montrose Hotel, as it stood amid N the gleaming white sand, with its slop- |̂FNG gables and numerous towers, to the JWFEYE of the distant mariner, seemed but dark, irregular mass of rocks keeping ||fawrd over the long line of unbroken Ipeach. It was crowded to its fullest ^CAPACITY at this season. The late arrive RL^LS who pleaded for but a simple cot in fcome corner, were refused even this trifling request, and were obliged to I^|&EEK the more unpretentious quarters of 8#HE hotel half a mile distant. : < «AY PARTIES of tourists, companies of |FACTORS, stopping en route to fulfill en- : jgagements in Western towns, Bohe- tniansft whose unfettered modes of living startled the cliques of conventional ; jnobbism into a chronic state of wonder fcnd disgust. Beauties, too,of the femi­ nine order--though not profession-, 111, their renown was widespread enough •--vied with one another in dazzl ing t ae • eyes of the men, and heaping tinhappi- liess upon the women whom fate had erdowed with sallow complexions, and {general ugliness. All were gathered , «n masse at this fashionable retreat, to : breathe the salt sea air, plunge daily in the briny surf, flirt, gossip, and indulge ;? ! In all the amusements afforded at a L,. ' Summer resort. But among th-i pleas­ ure-seeking throng, none was perhaps J . • more deserving of being awarded the J>alm, than was Vivian St. Aburn, and I perhaps no two men came nearer to ;fitter enmity than did Antoin Duvall, the little Frenchman, whose foreign PLANNERS and native esprit, made him a general favorite, and Victor Flushing, >' piis once most intimate friend; and the J f̂ause of all the bitterness had been J; V Vivain St. Aburn, whom many PRO­ FIT Hounced a heartless flirt, while others ^ t owed that her head had been turned by lier beauty. She was seated atone of " the crowded table d'hote with Antoin £ * F)uvall directly opposite, devoting two- '( 'thirds of his attention to herself, while J the other third of his time was taken ! * %tp with the salad and cold beef. On her right sat her aunt, whose un- tiring devotion mas almost painful, VHILE Victor Flensing occupied a chair I ON her left; but HP was pale, and a de- ! fiant gleam shqne in his steel-gray eyes. L Vivian was also pale and her heart had | HOT ceased its wild beating as she £ thought of the bit of paper hidden in the bosom <©f her evening dress. She had found |t lying just outside of the fining-room door as she entered. She had stopped to peruse its con- tents, indifferently enough at first, but on closer examination was horrified to DISCOVER that it was a challenge from ANTOIN Duvall, to Victor Flushing, the Jfneeting to take place at Poplar grove, •n that night, at midnight. It was Elated a week before, and she was well '•.ware that Victor Flushing was Hot the man to hesitate. He was <#very inch a soldier, and the fire in his «• teel-gray eyes spoke of the bravery of !# heroic nature. This, then, was the iCause of the determination written upon fcis face as he sat, absorbed in thought, ftt her side. She knew the secret of it, and it tfaade her cheek grow pale and her lieart beat convulsively, for she was •also conscious that she was the cause of the existing enmity between these •two frierfd8. "Mon Dieu, Mademoiselle Vivian, you are truly glorious to-night," An­ toin said, with a jesture, placing his hand upon his heart. Vivian was accustomed to the flat­ tery always bestowed so lavishly upon L»er by the little Frenchman, but her lace flushed now, and she wondered how he could appear so cheerful and careless with the cruel challenge upon his conscience. Vivian laughed; she felt conscious that all her worklliness must be brought into play at that moment. Her liking for Antoin Duvall had oooled fapidly since the discovery of his de­ sire for Victor Flushing's blood, and •lie knew the inborn gift of an unerring shot had been bestowed upon Antoia. SHE glanced back at HIM calmly as «K« laughed: "Ah, Monsieur Antoin, it is only the ifeflection of your own countenance in JTOY eyes, that you see; I never look •yell in a pink light, and the sun is just setting in a great ball of fire from THE window at your back." She WAS tnily beautiful as she spoke ^glorious, as the little Frenchman had <aaid. So exquisitely fair, with the pale Saass of yellow hair framing her per- •Jectlyoval face, \while the sheeny fabric <Of her evening, dress seemed to blend :J»erfectly with her ethereal beauty, tihe great knot of purple violets being ithe only, color that stood but in bold ffelief. Vivian turned T̂O Victor, "lain afraid IMR. Flushing is -growing wise," she «aid, looking eagerly into his face as if tto read his thoughts. U1 believe you have not paid me one compliment to- •D&Y, and I am beginning to have faith in the lines, ?here te an am in all our lives, when every dream must lose Its ppell." Victor Flushing looked up quickly at ike beautiful {are. whose lips were say- JUG such cruel things so lightly. There was no irace of agitation upon tus countenance, as his gaze wet her 4»wn, and there was nothing in the tone of his voice that betrayed emotion or > .embarrassment. "No person can pay A oompliaent WITH more grace AND ECLA^ than a F̂renchman, Miss St. Auburn, and, •hould I now try, my meagre attempt 'would sound tame, and lack the finish 4*f your admirer opposite." Vivian forgave the irony, and she pushed back her chair and arose. "You will not forget our ride to-night, Tivian Victor said, as he, too, left his •eat at the table, but not to follow liar. *It may be our last." , The words and his tone struck like a hnell upon her ears. She did like the iitUe Frenchman, BUT SHE felt more II • ' p- i Utto the parlor and "DWFT YON , , .. . M gMlttMW «tag<li*ectlY after eating, it is FAI- ittrions to the digestion, AND I proniMd % Flushing that I WOULD ride out with him this evening. To-morrow, perhaps, 1 will sing for yon." "To-morrow ?" Anton repeated, AND shook his head, as she bowed and left him. "Sons verrons, Mademoiselle Vivian," and he went out upon the piazza. Vivian looked out of her window a few minutes later. She had a haunted feeling. Was she to blame lor it all? How could she ever have dreamed that it would come to this ? And could it be that in a few short hours Victor Flush­ ing's blood, perhaps, would be staining the green grass at the Poplar grove? She shuddered. "What can I do?" she asked herself, again and again. "If I could but transform Monsieur Antoin into a grasshopper, that he might hop away and be lost in the grass!" She walked to the bureau and looked at the glittering revolver carefully hidden in one corner of the drawer. She turned and rang the bell, and held a consulta­ tion with the half-grown boy who an­ swered her summons, after which she laid - a bright piece of money in his hand. The sea was breaking gently upon the white beach below, and the fluttering sails far out upon the deep caught the fading radiance of the dying day. "What have I done?" Vivian asked, as they rode over the stretch of undu­ lating country--"what have, I done to merit your displeasure to the extent of holding out the threat that this is to be our last ride?" It was a hard thing for her to control her voice as she spoke, and she dared not look at him, but she longed to hear the story of the challenge from his own lips. "Did I say it?" Victor asked, with a look of surprise. "Perhaps I was afraid you might forget, and go off with j Monsieur Antoin, so I was obliged to be J pathetic." | "Ah!" thought Vivian, "he is going to allow Antoin Duvall to kill him, and I am not to know of the affair until all is over." "LET us ride to the iron spring," she said. "I must go once more before I leave the Montrose, and the air is so lovely." "Ten miles there and back! That will be a long ride, I am afraid," Victor replied. He was, no doubt, thinking of what was before him that niglit, and he felt that the time was not his own. Vivian was, too, thinking of the same thing. But she laughed: "I do not call that a very long ride, and, beside, there is a full moon, and we can reach the hotel in good season." The road was smooth and easily trav­ eled, and the light rain of-the morning had settled the dust. They had been riding along drinking in the calm beauty of all about them, and when the iron spring with its bubbling waters came in sight it had seemed but a short ride. Vivian alighted from the docile white animal, and took up two small iron- stained cups and allowed the water to run over their brims several times be­ fore filling them to drink. "Here's health and happiness to Vic­ tor Flushing," she said, holding UP one of the crups toward him as he advanced, after fastening his sorrel, which had be­ come restless. Victor took the cup, and torched the water-stained brim of the one she had retained with his own. It was a refreshing draught after their long ride, and the cool sparkling water was like nec+ar to their parched throats "How beautiful she is," Victor thought, as she stood there in the moon light, with her hand uplifted, and her tall, slender figure so clearly outlined in the pale light. He threw down the cup, and took her hand, "Vivian!" he cried, "I cannot help it; 1 did nott mean to tell you to­ night, but I love you, and, if it were not for Monsieur Antoin, I know I could win you for my wife.W Vivian let her hand remain in his, do not uare for Monsieur Duvall," she said, ">but I am not worthy of a love like yours, Victor, and if you knew all you would despise me." He took a step forward, "Promise me, Tivian, that if I am living to-mor- »»W, you will be my wife." •"I will never marry any one but you, Victor," she-said in a scarcely audible voice, "and, if you die to-morrow, I will die to. " N Her words had a covert significance, irot he did not understand them. She looked at her companion. His eyes were heavy, and his face had haggard expression. *"Oome,"«he said, "let us go and rest frpoau the piazza of the little publio bouse ior A-few moments." He turned and followed her, and they sat down upon the porch and listened to <THE bubbling spring and the pawing horses. It was a silent spot, but it was salt ithe death-like stillness that had crept over Poplar Grove an hour and a half later. Nature's igreat amphitheater, lit only by the steady light, of the full-moon as it looked mutely, dawn upon the silent walls of sky which encompassed it. There were :no spectators to witness the eonftest about to be fought beneath the countless stars. The floating mists had bees -suddenly dispelled, and the pene­ trating lighffrom above brought to view every «daik object. XO WORD passed *4he lips of the silent groupjgathereil upon the spot. It lacked but ten minutes to midnight, and Victor Flushing had not come. The drivers of the »two solitary .carriages leaned wearily J>rer their high seats; the yellow lamps flickered in the wind, and the oc­ casional rattling of the harness of the restive horses was the icnly noise that disturbed .the unbroken quiet. Antoin JDuvall held his watch in the Ealm of his hand, and noted the minute and move -slowly around the dial. "Ah. craven fool:!" lie muttered, "the thought «f facing a little powder has frightened him. But there are five minutes left (for him to .defend his honor, AND win or lose the iiand of Vivian St. Auburn, or his name shall be flaunted to the world as a coward." The last fleeting moment upon which hung the destiny of Victor Flushing's name and honor had ended, and Antoin Duvall put his watch into his pocket, while a triumphant light o'erspread his whole countenanoe. But it died away suddenlv as his ear caught the sound of horse's fioofs, and in an instant his eyes beheld a rider coming at a mad pace to­ ward the spot. In a moment Victor Flashing had alighted from his faithful Borrel, whose shining coat was covered with flecks of white foam. Antoin came forward, but Victor drew back and motioned him to take HIS plaoe. His hps refused to speak word to Antoin Duvall; his loath- •.fapri15-- %aft liaaftrthiiivaad tlie wtite signals ol the aeconds were brought forth and for a moment fluttered in the night air. Victor's features were hard and set, but there was no fear visible in the gray eyea as they looked fearlessly down the muscle of the gluing pistol. And WHAT asleader thread for a man's UIE to htng upon! He stretched ont his hand and aimed his deadly weapon at the man who once had been his friend, but who now thirsted for his blood. The white sig­ nals fluttered to the ground, but as they fell, the weapon in Victor Flush- ing*A hand was pointed upward. When the wreaths of smoke had dis­ solved and floated off in the air, Victor lay upon the ground, motionless, while Antoin Duvall stood silently upon the spot uninjured. There was a sound in the distance, and before they could lift the fallen man from the earth, a rider, flushed with hard riding, reined up his white horse at the side of the prostrate form. The man dropped the bridle and dis­ mounted, and by the flood of mellow light which fell upon them the features of Victor Flushing were revealed to the astonished group. He was very pale, and the cold steel of his gray eye3 were filled with mingled scorn AND' hate as they rested upon Antoin. He bent down and lifted the head of the fallen victim, and, as he did so, the great mass of pale yellow hair fell from the small silver comb that fastened it, while upon the ground lay a blonde mustache. Vivian St. Auburn's beautiful face lay upturned toward them. They lifted her up gently. Only a flesh wound in the rounded arm was the result of Antoin Duval's shot. Victor placed her in one of the carriages and was driven to the Montrose Hotel, and one of the party who rode the faithful sorrel found a woman's riding habit snugly tucked beneath the saddle. The little Frenchman took a sudden departure that night, at which many wondered. Dave Sommers, though only an employe who answered the bell- call at the Montrose, could keep a secret, for he never told until years after how he had lent the beautiful Miss Vivian bis best Sunday suit and hat to fight a duel in, and how he had followed her and Mr. Victor Flushing out to* the iron spring, at her request, and brought tjie young man to at mid­ night from the effects of the drug ad­ ministered by the fair hands in the cup of iron water, and how Mr. Victor, on coming to himself, and finding his companion and sorrel both gone, had mounted the white horse ajid driven like mad over the silent moonlight country to the Poplar grove.--Chicago Ledger. A Story About Chief Justice Marshall. The Washington correspondent of the Cleveland Leader tells the following story of Chief Justice Marshall: "In- gersollism and Beecherism prevailed under different names in 1830, as they do to-day, and one of the chief subjects discussed in the hotels and in the coffee houses was as to whether there was a God or a hell. One night a party of young lawyers were sitting talking around a fire in a Virginia inn, when an old man drove up in a broken gig. He was plainly clad, his shoe buckles were loose, and he looked like an honest old farmer who did not care much for ap­ pearance. He entered and took a seat bv the fire, and all through he sat lis­ tening with the meekness and modesty of a child to the discussion of the young bloods, who were settling all of the great questions pertaining to this world and the next. At last one of them turned to him, and, winking at his companions, said, familiarly: 'Well, old gentleman, what do you think of these things ? Is there a hell, and do vou really think there is a God ?' The old man then opened his mouth, and astonished them by making a most elo­ quent and unanswerable appeal for the Christian religion. He took up every argument that had been uttered and re­ futed it. He discussed Hume on mir­ acles, and sat down finallv, leaving them all dumbfounded with astonish­ ment. Not a word mure did they say on the subject, and as soon as the old gentleman went off to bed they inquired who he was. They found it TO have been Chief Justice Marshall." In Obstinate Treasurer. Whan an Ohio County Treasurer came to hand in his books AND vouchers for setttement, the Chairman of the committee received them and observed; "Mr. White, we want to get through to-morrow, if possible." "Very well." "And it would greatly facilitate mat­ ters if you could tell as the exact amount of your embezzlement." "MY embezzlement! Why, sir, you will find my accounts correct to* <cent," was indignant response. "Oh, well, if you wont plead guilty we may as well settle down for a month's •wjork before we discover the amount," sighed the Chairman, and be called the meeting to order.--Wall Street News.

"If it's your dog, the black and white one that was loose last niglit, yes," re­ plied the junior bookkeeper, who was standing up, writing at a desk six inches too high for him. "Spell IT with the biggest D in the alphabet." And he went on with his work, while the old man sat and looked at him over his baleful spectacles for nearly ten minutes, wondering if he knew what the young man meant, and thinking he would -ask his daughter Evelyn about it when he got home. -- BurlimgiOH Hawkey e. > whola •mh*. to IÎ T EITE&DTOD TTON •••Him! M tfa ~ ' andaiaaatt I had TOAVDAD PRETTY TH ̂̂ throughout tha FTWIJK and, with TLW ex- oeptlon of |80 Mr. Yer- planck, of tha til YORK American, wholly at any owna§P«ns«. To defray these expenses 1 had borrowed $280 of of Albany, and $100 ol OFT. WIHPV Cunningham, of Poughkaepaia. I paid the money bor­ rowed of lir. Benedict, with interest, twelve years afterward, not being able to do so at an earlier day. For the purpose of enabling me to discharge my debt to Mr. Benedict, and to pay my board, my political friends in the Legislature signed a letter addressed to Mr. Fdisha Dorr, of Albany, one of the electors, saying that it was owing to my personal Seal and efforts that an Adams organization had been effected in the State, that I had contributed largely to the union between the Adams and the Clay members of the Legisla­ ture, a union to which the State and the nation were indebted for the defeat of the Regency and the Crawford party, and asking the Electoral College to ap­ point me the messenger to carry their votes to Washington. When the electors assembled, the venerable Ebenozer .Sage, of Suffolk county, was absent, and ex-Lieut. Gov­ ernor John Taylor, of Albany, was ap­ pointed to supply that vacancy. Gov. Taylor, always distinguished for his hospitalities, gave the electors an en­ tertainment; and before they left his house, and while under the influence of his oysters, comfits and champagne, Mr. John Taylor Cooper, a grandson of the Lieut. Governor, was announced as a suitable gentleman as messenger to convey the electoral vote to Washing­ ton. Gov. Taylor, not originally on the electoral ticket, knew nothing of the arrangements with reference to' my­ self. Mr. Dorr, to whom the letter of the members of the Legislature had been intrusted, had left before young Mr. Cooper was announced as a candi­ date. Mr. Burnham, of Cayuga, in­ formed the electors under what circum­ stances I WAS a candidate; but Gov. Taylor's high standing induced the electors to disregard other considera­ tions, and by general consent Mr. Cooper's appointment was acquiesced in. On the following day Mr. Dorr produced his letter and endeavored to secure my appointment, but it was too late. Wnen the question was taken the vote of the Adams men was divided between Mr. Cooper and myself. Mr. Russell, of Niagara county, himself an elector, received all the vote of the Crawjird electors. As there was no CL: o'®e on THEY first ballot, Mr. Bussell succeeded by strong personal appeal, in securing a majority on a subsequent ballot, so that the vote of New York in favor of Mr. Adams was carried to Washington, by a Crawford messenger. This disappointment, more crushing to me than the loss of a much more ex­ alted place, under Other circumstances could have been, was "a blessing in dis­ guise." As an ofBoeseeker, thencefor­ ward, I was "discharged cured." To •the qnqption which has been a thousand times asked, but never before responded to,why I never accepted office, this is my answer: From the day that shameful injustice was practMed* I have had an aversion and repugnance to office, which neither time, CHANGE nor conditions have either overcome or weakened.

A Litife Boston Story of Hearts Made Sad. One day a gentleman residing upon Chestnut street, Boston, was seized with the desire to go out carriage riding with a friend. There is nothing particularly sinful in such a desire, but for some reason or other the gentleman aforesaid, not wishing his father to know his in­ tention, requested the driver, when the •carriage was ordered, not to stop in front of his house, but to drive up and down the street until he appeared. Another dweller on Chestnut street--A lady--was similarly inspired, and or­ dered her coachman to bring the car riage to the door at a certain hour. The coachman obeyed orders. In due course of time number one issued forth from his residence, and seeing the vehicle of number two in waiting, imagined it be the conveyance he had ordered from a public stabile. He sent the coachman about his business, and then, taking the reins, departed in a direction that was equivalent to traveling all over creation. By and by the lady, wanting her car­ riage, came forth to seek it, and learned that it had been driven away by a stranger. Confusion in every directum. Horse and carriage stealing! Detec­ tives were placed upon the track of the robber, who was eventually brought up with a round turn at an out-of-town hostlery.

In the Constitutional Convention of 1787 Mr.. Plana Butler, a delegate from South Carolina, moved the adop­ tion of clause 3, section 3, article 4 of tha Constitution, which reads: "No person held to service or labor in one State, under the laws thereof escaping into another, shall, in consequenoa of any law or regulation therein, be dis­ charged from suoh service or labor, but shall be delivered up on claim of the party to whom such service or la­ bor may be due." The first law to give effect to this constitutional pro­ vision was prepared by a committee of the Senate appointed in November, 1792. This committee was composed of Mr. Johnston, of North Carolina; Mr. Cabot, of Massachusetts, and Mr. Bead, of Delaware. In December Mr. Johnston reported a bill which was not entirely satisfactory. Mr. Taylor, of Virginia, and Mr. Sherman, of Con­ necticut, were added to the committee. On Jan. 3, 1793, Mr. Johnston reported a bill, which, after several days' con­ sideration, was passed without a dis­ senting voice. On the 4th of February following, this bill passed the House by a vote of 48 to 7. It gave slave-masters and their agents summary power to seize, hold and return fugitives from slavery to their former bondage, what­ ever laws the States in which they were found might pass to the contrary, the matter being one under jurisdiction of the United States Courts. How It Increased. "Papa if you will give me a dollar I will show you, to-morrow, how much I can make on it in one day," said a little bov to his father. The father, wishing to encourage the young man, gave him a bran-new dol­ lar bill. The boy took it and folded it up into a very small space, and tucked it away in the safest part of his clothing. The next day the father asked his son how much money he had. The boy fished out the money are re­ plied: "Well I am a little ahead." How do you make that out," said the father, "you have only the original capital."
