‘\Where de you want to go.

‘To Paris.’

‘But why net wait till morning ?’

‘ Becanse I dare not.’

‘You dare not? And why?’

‘ji my husband discovers that I have beer out all night, without an excuse, he will murder me. Ah, monsieur,you little know the torture of a mind chain- ed toa jealous soul which neither ap- prociates it himself or permits others to!’

This settled it. Monsieur Jacquard was a married man. He was also a most respected one, well known to the Bourse.

‘(4ome to my house,’ he said. ‘It is really impossible for you to return to Paris alone at this time of night. You shal! spead the evening as mine and my wife's guest. To-morrow she shall ae- company you aad explain all. By-the- by, what is itall? What brought you into the road as we found you?’

There was more embarrassment iur- ther hesitation, additional, sobbing,and then the unfortunate lady unfolded her | tale of horror.

Sie was the wife of @ prosperous

lawyer. Her husband, an ogre of sixty, hate l, yet was odiously jealous of her. it had been a marriage of convenience. She had sold herself to the golden calf, only to learn that that auriferous ani- mal! can kick as hard as any quadraped of vulgar hide and hair. In the three years which had elapsed siace she as- sumed these bond. which had been payiog her such heayy dividends of misery ever since, she had not known a happy hour. '¢The nearest approach to it had been procured her by afriend of her hus- band’s, a young journalist. Monsieur Gribeau (how appropriate a name for such «a monster!) was counsel for the newspaper of which Victor Fellot was editor. Business brought tue latter frequently to the lawyer’s house, He had met Madame Gribeau. He had loved her, at least she had thought so. As ‘or herself, she had experienced an interest in him. It was not love. It was rather gratitude that he brought a little light into her mournful existance. She trusted him, she confided her troubles to him. In return he sought to comfort her. Strange as it might seem, her husband was not jealous of him. so he was able to take her about among scenes which in a measure dis- tracted her mind from its morbid browd- ing-.

‘’his morning he had proposed to her a visit to some lady friends of his at Courcelless. The journey had been maie in an open carriage, They halt ed by the way at the Brazen Lion to dine, and dusk cameon. He made pro- posals to her at which her soul revyol- ted. She leaped from the carriage and fell insensible. The miscreant drove on, leaving her to the terror of the dar cness. The rest Monsieur Jacquard knew.

These affecting confidences melted Monsieur’s Jacquard’s naturally sym- patiietic son!, He mingled his pitying tears with those of the unfortunats lads. He tuen took her to his house in # conveyance, and Madame Jacquard listoned to ber tale with sobs of com- misseration, It was determined that Maiam Jacquard should xccompany Maiame Gribeau home next day, and

give Monsieur Gribeau apiece of her} 5,

ZERC. Jan. 13, 1880. Ee tt cD Opitvary. — Never was sadder news broken to parent than that which was

wired to Dugald Campbell, Esq., of North Lake, Lot 47, of the Ist of December from Danver, Gol’, announcing the premature afd unexpected Meath of his héloved “son, Columba. A most promising young nian was he ; having become, by hus tact and in- dustry, an ingenious mechanic, though out 24 years old at the time of .bigdeath.. . V‘he years of his apprenticeship were speut in Souris, after whicli he lived Té? three years at Mount Stewart, where his labor was in constant requisition, On account of his extreme youth, and of his high appreciatien of his own character, he prudently refrein- ed, for the first few years, from embark ng in [any very heavy contcacta. Consci¢us, however, of his own abitity to perforin the work ‘satisfactorily, ke undertook, m “he in the summer of 18738, to erect and cem- plete the parochial residence at St. Mar- garet’s, Bear River. Faithfully were ‘he plans and spetifications ‘executed, end for many 4 long year will his name be most honorably associated with that buildiag. Desirous of having a wider field of action than that offered by the-Island. daring che depression that of late made itself se severely felt in every department, he bide adieu. to his friends for :a witile, so he hoped, and set out for the Great Wast during the latter part of March last,. Two days after his‘ arrival at Denver he fovnd employment which, by /his ppnetual, so er and industrieus habits he rendered, both permanent and lucrative: Bright, inde:d, weveethe anticipations of his young end sanguine heart, avd well-founded seemed the hopes of his future prosperity centered in him by his friends when“dread sickness laid its cold hand upon him. . An. attack. of typhoid fever, followed immediately.by a relapse, baffled the skill cf the first ph.’si- cians of the city, and eventually triump)ed over the deyeted attentions of his newly found but faithful friends. Thus did this fresh flower wither and die in this uneon- genial soil; but let us hope it was treus- planted hence to bloom for ever beneath the rays of the Hternal Sun of Justice. He died fortified with the rites of the Church, and.there, as here, left. behind him asjet- less nanie wherewitlh to encircle his m:m- ory in the hearts ‘of his afflicted relatives and sorrowing friends. — Com, BE pcan diet stieireaienase
