Afver Touch of Wedded Pande.

——

I entered this wood an hour ago, yet I stand here sll. My brain seems reeling. Au awful s-rrow has crushed me.

Sixty minutes ago 1 was a young, happy girl—a bride of two months’ standing. With a light step I came gayty down this woodland path, avd saw—my husband with another woman in bis embrace |! Her white arms were round him; her fair hair was blown acress Ives breast; her lips were pressed 'o his. Ob! shali Ll ever jorget the sight or the agony it brought to my soul to kauow that he, my heart’s darling, whom I had deemed a kiug amongst men, was false to me!

‘They did not see me. I listened for no words, With the sonnd of those passionate kisses filling my ears—with that shamelul scene burning like fre within my braiv—I! flid away into the deepest gloom 1 could tind, bke a wounded avimal vainly rushing from the dart which is fixrd in its own breast. Howam I to go home? How shall I beer to louk again upon his traitor- onus face ¢

‘Don’t touch me!’ I ery,

My husband and 1 are standing face to face ; be has dared to «fier me a caress, Bertram gravely looks at me with’ surprise

in his eyes.

‘Lenore, have | offended you in any way / he asks.

‘You have only killed every feeling of aff ction I ever had for you. That is all !’ I say fiercely.

‘I do not understand,”

‘Do you not 1 Bertram, I have just come from Oakwood |

He starts, but there comes no lock of goilt on the calin, dark face | am keenly watching. Is he so base that he can thus deftly hide his sin ¢

You saw me there ? he questions.

‘Yes, and T hate you! I exclaim, snatch- ing my hand from bis grasp. “Yuu are the vilest man I have ever known. I would not remain under your roof for a kingdom!’

Yesterday I left my husband—-only twenty-four hours ago; yet 1b seems as though a century of time had passed since then, and I ask myself how I shall live without him, the long, blank years which stretch out before me.

[ am travelling by expresss train to a litule place among the Welsh mountains, where I can hide my misery in peace. I am alone in the carriage, and jeaning my head back wearily against the cushions, I ponder whether she—his new love—-will now take my place within that lost home,

The train enters a long tunnel; then, as it emerges into daylight, there comes a piercing scream from the engine’s whistle, the roar of an, approachibg tram, and a deafening, blinding crash, which seems to swallow me up.

I recover consejousness ty find’ I am only bruised, The collision has taken place near a few farmhouses, and the injured passengers are. heing carried te these dwelings. A dreadful scene meets wry gaze as IL alight ; the front portion of both trains is con pletely mrccked. Awicst. the debris lie maimed human bodies, some stenyyling to extricate themselses, others white, still, wrapped in the last dread slumber. A female figure is borne past on men’s shoulders. Every part of her body looks crushed ont of Whe even the pale face and long fair hair are made ghastly by crimson stains of blood.

Wiere have I seen such hair as this before? Lkea flssh of light the scene in Oskwood ries before my sight. Yester- day these gelden tresses were flung across Bertram’s bre vst !

1 start forward, a wild hatred for this woman, who had ruined my peace, takes possession of wy mind, driving out all pity.

1 heed not those around us, It seems to meas though she and | have all the world to onrselves.

‘‘Do you know what you have done, with your shameful wiles?’ Tery. ‘‘How dare you steal away my husband's heart |”

She has, I see, nu power to move aught except her eyes. These, with a frighten- ed pleading exp: ession turn to my face.

Her lips move feebly; she utters but ove word ‘Forgive! and my rival falls back dead.

Twelve months have rolled slowly away, but the fi ght of time has brought no peace to me. I aw heirt-hungry—starving for the love that was once my deadly food,

Thongh I torn with loathing from the thooght of my husband, an inteose yeara- ing grows up in my soul to be pear him— to look once wo 6 upon his countenance.

The strong desire of my heart conquers me; [ grow languid and weak, At iasi yielding to an irresissibe ipulse, I leave the dwelling I have fora yeur cailed home, and return to the neighborhood of that other house where dwetls the husband wh om, in spite of all, I still love.

I resolve to remain bere unknown, so that some day I may, unseen, behold him agin.

It is not long before, one night, I steal forth im the darkness to stand, au hour later, in front of my lost howe.

Towe is no light in the drawing-room, He does not, then, occupy the apartment we have so of en shared,

[turn to his study window, That is also dak. Where is he!

1 hft my eyes to hia chamber, Here o light burn steadily; while shifting shadows, as of persous moving quietly within, fall across the blind,

My heart grows sick with a dreadful fear. He will, Hemay be dying; and I, his wife, stand here, « stranger, with no power to cross the threshold.

I tremble with intense anxiety. Oh, if

} some & rvant would but open the dvuor, I

wight inquire what is the matter! In the dusk they would not recognize me. A quick step egaits 4

| ‘Tell me what is amiss!’ I gasp. “He is not seriously iif?’ | Doctor Ormerod leoks down gravely into inry agiteted face es he answers:

‘Lil unto death; there is only a gleam of

hope.’

| Ished no tears; they seem frozeu. The jwords ring again and ayain through my -brain—‘Lil unto death! | ‘TI must see him,’ is ali I say. , The doctor shakes his head, | ‘You must let me go to Bertram!’ I ery. | ‘Ob, have some pity and keep me not from

imy dying husband! J will yot agitate him,

I assure you!’

| -The very sight of your face would do pitas. Mis. Tremaine, do you know, during the time he was une nseives, your name was on his lips day and night!’

‘Yet you are cruel enough to keep us apar |’ 18 My passionate response.

A moment’s silence, while I see his stern face soften, then he says:—

*You shal! be admitted on one condition It is that you remain behind the bed. He will not perceive your presence, and you must promise to speak no word; the flame of life is so weak. that apy agitation may extinguish it at once,’

‘l promise,’ is my quick response.

Ben Butler and the Farmers.

in his address to the farmers at Pitts. burgh, Ben Butler said: First of all I thank you for the invitation that has brought me here into the Cumberland Valley. I hardly know how to address the audience, | am told that it is non-political in a certain sense, but if I talk about anything that has to du wih the future of the country and the condition of the people, 1 must talk politics. [Applause ] Ll know that great word ‘‘politics’ has been debased, and we bear men say that isa good thing; it & politic, because it is cunning. Now, | despise all that. The good is always politic. The politic is always right in the higher sense of the word, and therefore, in what 1 shall say to you, while I deal not with men or anything personal to any man, yct | propose to dea) as | may see tit with Jaws, syatems and principles. Usually, a speech to the farmers commences in

{TELLING THEM HOW HAPPY THEY ARE.

and how much their lot is to be desired io all others, and how excelient a thing it is to plough the ground, and drive the cows, and milk them, and to make butter, and to ‘have other people eat it. T am not going to begin my speech that way. A farmer boy —brovght up in my early youth on a farm, not like those, but so rocky that when they sent me after the cows | could jump a mile from stone to stone and never touch the yround—I know something of f, life. It is hard life, if well followed. “Tt is an onerous life, if well followed. In the olden time it was a hard life for the womcn of the women of the farm, bur not so onerous now, because the creamery avd the cheese fuctory,.the spinning juny and the loom, have retieved them trom making butter rand cheese and clothing as they used to do in my time. Whether it is better or not is a question that lam not qitite prepared to ‘discuss. ~ [t has made it eager This

FARM LIFE IS A STERN LIFE,

bat it always gives results, not-the highest in one sense. The farmer, asa rule, does not get rich, but be always has a comfort- able snbsistence, and if he is industrious and frugal he mys up a competence for his children, if he has taught them to work with him, and does not get the foolish ida that the highest voeation a mah can have is to measure off calico with a yard- stick behind a counter, Stay at home,

boys, on the farm. Let me _ tell you one of two things, and this is polities, only you don’t know it. Ninety-

wine out of every hundred men that go into the city and go into business, ninety- nine out of every hundred do not succeed in a hiph degree, and more than ninety out of every hundred fail utterly. The suc- cesses you hear of, but the failures sink away into obscurity, and your sons who have gene into the city find their places at jast inthe poor house, where history does not deal with them to any considerable ex- tent, Toat won't happen if the boy stays on the farm. And it is as MUCH WORSE FOR THE GIRL

as you think, You marry one of these men that go«ffto the city. You have a little odor of the farm about yon, and when he gets somewhere else and smells another odor, he deserts you and picks up sqnebody else. That is the fate of the girls in too many instances. I speak like an old man to youny men and women, and mothers and fathers. Finda good honest farmer or mechanic iv your neighborhood, and marry the girl to bim atid let them be the happy parents of fine children, again to mary with ‘hat class upon which the very foundation of vur government rests. Then you wil! \have children that will love you and child- ren that, while you must love, whatever may cOwe, YOU Cau in wil Cases Pespect.
