OUR OWN. If I had known in tho morning How wearily all thc day The words unkind Wcuid trouble my mind I said when you went away, I had been mare careful, darling, Nor given you noodles* pain ; But we vex "our own" With look and tone We might never take back again. For though in the (juiet evening You may givo me the kiss of peace, Yot it'might be That never for me The pai a of the heart should cease. How m my go for'.h in tin- morning That never come h.?mo Mt night, And hearts have broken For narah words spoken, That sorrow can never set right. Wo havecarcful thoughts for the stranger, And smiles for the some time guest, But oft for " onr own" The bitter tone. Though we love "our own*' the best. Ah ! lips with the curve impatient, Ah I MOW with that look of scorn, 'Twere a cruel fate Were the night too late To v.v ia the work of morn. LQTJ? olF A L O e. "Miss Becky Newton." " Well, sir.,: " Will yon marry me ? " No, I won't." "Very well; then don't, that'sall." Mr. Fred Eckerson drew away his chair, and putting his feet up on the piazza, unfolded a newspaper. Miss [ Becky Newton bit her lip and went o \ with her sewing. She wondered if that was going to be the last of it. She had felt this proposal coming for nearly a month, but the scene she had anticipated was not at all like this. She had intended to refnse him, but it was to be done gracefully. She was to remain firm, notwithstand ing his :nost eager entreaties. She was to have told him that though respecting his manly worth and up right character, she could never be to him more than an appreciative and earnest friend. She had intended to shed a few tears, perhaps, as he knelt writhing in an agony of supplication at her feet. But instead he had ask ed her the simple question, without any rhetorical embellishments, and on being answered had plunged at. once into his newspaper, as though he had merely inquired the time of day. She could have cried with vex ation. " You will never have a better chance," he continued after a pause, as he deliberately turned over the sheet to find the telegraph reports. " A better chance for what?" she asked shortly. " A better chance to marry a voting, good-looking man, whose gal? lantry to the sex is only exceeded by hil bravery in their defense." Fred WM quoting from his newspaper, but Mies Newton did not know it. M And whose egotism is only ex ceeded by his impudence," retorted the lady, sarcastically. "Before long," continued Fred, " you will be out of the market. Your chances, you know, are getting slim mer every day." "Sir!" "It won't be a great while be fore you are ineligible. You will grow old and wrinkled and " Such rudeness to a lady, Bir, is monstrous," exclaimed Miss Newton rising hastily, and flushing to ihe temples. "I'll give you a final opportunity, Miss Becky. Will you mar-" " Not if you were the king of En gland," interrupted Miss Newton, throwing down her work. " I am not accustomed to such insults, sir. And so saying she passed into the house and slammed the door behind her. "She is never so handsome as when she is in a rage," thought Fred to himself, after she had gone, as he slowly folded up his paper and re placed it in his pocket. " I was a fool to goad her so. I shall never win her in that way. But I'll have her,", he exclaimed, aloud. "By Heaven, I'll have her, cost what it may Very different was the Fred' Eck erson of the present, pacing nervous ly up and down the piazza, from the fred Eckerson of a few moments ago, receiving his dismissal from the wo man he loved, with such cclm and imperturbable exterior. Fer he lov ed ISecky Newton with all his heart. The real difficulty in the way, as he more than half suspected, was noi s<> much with himself as in his pocket. Becky Newton had an insuperable objection to an empty wallet. The daughter of a wealthy Louisiana planter, reared in luxury, and the recipient of a weekly allowance of pin money sufficient to pay Fred's whole bills for a month, she had no immediate idea of changing her sit uation for one of less comfort and independence. Besides, it had been intimated to her that a neighbboring planter of unusual aristocratic line age had looked upon her with cove tous eyes. To be sure, he was old and ugly, but he was rich, and in her present mercenary state of mind, Miss Becky Newton did not desire to allow such a chance of becoming a woalthy widow slip by unimproved. But alas for human nature ! If Becky was really so indifferent to Fred Eckerson, why did she run up stairs after that' interview, and take the starch all ont of her nice clean, pillow-shams by crying herself into hysterics on the bed. It was not all wrath, not all vexation, it was not all Sique. There was somewhere deep own in Becky Newton's heart, feeling very much akin to remorse. She was not sure she would not some day be sorry for what she had done She had no doubt she could be very happy as Fred Eckerson's wife, after all. " But then," she cried, crowing hot with the recollection, " I never could live with sucha man,-never!'" When Fred Eckerson had walked off some of his feelings on the piazza, he concluded to take a look at the river. The Mississipr i, which flowed within five hundred yard? of the house, was at the time nearly at the height of its annual "spring rise.' Its turbid waters, rushing swiftly to wards the sea, had nearly filled the banks and in many places had bro ken through the levees and flooded the lowlands for many miles. A cre vasse of this desciiption had been made in the farther Dank, nearly op posite the house, and the windows of tho Newton mansion commanded a view of a vast and glittering inland sea, not laid down on the map. The main current bf the stream bore up on its coffee-colored bosom an enor mous mass* Of floating timber, which was dashed along in the boiling flood, rendering navigation wholly impos sible. The waters were still rising, and the frequent crashes farr and near told of the uudeminiugjpdwer of the current, as sedtlotls. ot the sandy banks succumbed and aiss.p.peared, carrying with them the tre<!S which overhung the ?tr ea m. J Notait happtaod' that bj A ouri-H -^^c-? ?ww? ??.--? ? ous coincidence, Miss Newton ali solved to look at the river, dried her tears, and putting or roil; slipped out by .the back dc iivo:d Fwd., ?rid soon fn'und hers the iij.it ol' a ling" &?ttoti w nod ti the bank below the house. Tl ing herself upon the grass, md 1 by the bubbling of the r >pid iieneath her. she sr-oir fell fast .?! [lad sh?: pOS-?-s e 1 any pow-r <i| seeing the future, it would have . iie last- ? lung sh- would have i f?r although it was very pie .ii-'ppin^ a-leep there iii fhe si with the soft sunlightflittering thr the leaves overhead, the . ?*ukt was not at all tb her mind. A I ble crash, made chaos of her dre; the ground slipped from beneath the tail cottonwood toppled and and Miss Becky Newton found self suddenly immersed in the flood, vitli her mouth fall of -im water. In a moment more, somebi arm was around her and she felt sell lifted UD and placed somew iu the . sunshitie, though prec where, she was as j et too bewild to know. Getting her eyes op? last, she found Fred Eckerson's v ken nearlv brushing her face. " Well !" ' " Well !" " Where am I ? asked Becky, s ering and looking around her. '? In the middie of the Mississij replied Fred, "and you are in fork of a co: ton wood-tree, and are voyaging toward the Gull Mexico just as fast as this freshet carry you." " How came you here !,: " In the same conveyance \ yourself, Miss Becky. In fact, and I aud the tree all came toge tl to say nothing of a portion of y father's plantation, which, I lea lost to him forever." Becky was silent. She was thi ing. not of '.he accident or the p( ous position, but of her appeara wheu she was lying asleep on grass. " How long were you there fore this happened ?" she asked. " As long as you were. I was in the tree when you came." " You had no right to be- thei she said, co'oring,-" a spy upon movements." "Nonsense!" he replied. "1 intruded on my privacy, and wi you slept I watched over you, 1 the sweet little cherub that sits aloft." " Thank you for the service, ] sure," she said, bridling. " You snored awfully." " Mr. Eckerson, remove your a from my wai?t." " Then put yours around i neck." " Indeed I will do no such thinj I " You will fall into the river if y do not." Becky was silent for several n ment8, while their unwieldly cr whirled along the current, rolli from side to side and threateni every instant to turn complet* over and tip them ofl. At last s said M What are we to do ?" " I think, now that I am starte I shall go on to New Orleans," he J plied. " To New Orleans," exclaim* Becky. " It is a hundred miles." " Yes, and the chance for a fri passage for such a distance is not be neglected. You can go ashore you prefer." She burst into tears. "You ara cruel," she said, "i treat me so." " Cruel !" exclaimed Fred, drav ing her closer to him, quickly, " cruel to you ?" There was no help for it, and sf again relapsed into silence, quite coi tent, apparently, to remain in Fred arms, and evincing now no dispos tion to rebel. For once in her lil the was dependent on a man. " I want to go to New Orleans, continued Fred, and after a pause " because there is a young lady c my acquaintance residing there, when I have an intention of inviting int this neighborhood." UQJ" " If we don't go to New Orleans and if we get out of this scrape I shall write for her to come any way." " Ah !" " I shall obtain board for her ii St. Jean, which will be convenien ?or me as long as I remain your fat h er's guest. I can ride over afte breakfast every morning, you see." .' She is an intimate friend, then,' said Becky. I expect to marry her before long he replied. " Marry her ! Why you-you pro posed to me this morning." " Yes, but you refused me. I toh you then you would never have an other chance." Becky was silent again. It is t matter of some doubt whether, hac Fred at that moment, sitting astrid* that cotton-wood log with his feet ir the water and his arm around hei waist; proposed to her a second time -he would have accepted him or not To be sure a marvelous change had come over Becky's feelings since he/ tumble into the river: She felt- just then that one strong arm like that which supported her, was worth a thousand old and decropid planters, and she recognized the fact that a man who could talk so coolly and unconcernedly in a situation of such extreme peril, was one of no ordina ry courage. But she was not yet quit . prepared to give up her golden dreams. The dross was not quite washed out of her soul, and she did not yet know how much she loved Fred Eckerson. Besides she did not half believe him. The clumsy vessel floated on, now root first, now sideways, and now half submerged beneath the boiling cur rent. Their precarious hold became more uncertain as their frames became chilled by the cold water, and every plunge of the log threatened to cast them once more into the river. In vain Fred endeavored to attract the at tention of some one on the shore. The cottonwood retained a course nearly in the middle of the stream, too far .from either bank to render their out cries of much avail. As it grew dark, -heir situation grew more and more hopeless, and to Becky there appear ed .to be no escape from death, either by drowning in the darkness or by exhaustion before daybreak. Yet to die in this man's arms seem ed not wholly a terror. She could hardly think, if death must come, of any way in which she would rather meet iii Was it possible she loved him, and must needs be brought with in the valley of the shadow before she-could know her heart. Had she lloved all along? Whil? she was -thinking about it, chilled by the night air, she Tell asleep. .When she awoke the stars were cut, biiVshe Was w -rm and comfortable. Raising her head, she found herself: enveloped in Fred's .coat. " Fred !" "Well!" '.You have robbed yourself to keep me warm. You ?re freezing." " No I ain't. T took it off because it. was so awful li ?i.". riii ! laking ?ii! his handkerchief w i r h . f : i - i1tai>K^fl hand lie made a precise .vit>ini the perspiration from Iiis brow-. '.

Shall wc !..,.-?:: wi V .' ? don't lc no*.-. l*ii! your ?inns I mound my ? neck. f-r Tm going fr take mine away.'" Becky did this time as she was bidden. She not only threw her arms* quickly around his neck, but she laid lier hend^upon his breast, without the slightest hesitation. In the darkness, Fred-did not know that, she imprinted a kiss upon his ? shi rt- bosom. " Hold fast now !" he cried. .' Hold on, for your dear life !" The log had been gradually near ing the shore for some time, and it now shot, suddenly under a large syc amore which overhung the bank mid trailed its branches in the brown floud. Quick ns thought Fred seized the limb above lits head, and pulled with all his might. The headlong cour.se of the cottonwood was checked; it plunged heavily and partly turned over, its top became entangled in the sycamore, and a terrific crackling of limbs ensued. With a sudden spring Fred gained the projecting branch, dragging his clinging burden after him. In another instant, the cotton wood had broker away ?nd continued its voyage down the river, while the bent sycamore regained its shape with such a quick rebound that the two travelers were very nearly precipita ted into the stream again. Fred, half supporting, half dragging Becky, worked his way to the trunk by a se ries of gymnastics that would have done no discredit to Blond?n, and in a moment more both had reached the ground in safety. "That's a business we are well out of," he said, when he had regained his breath. " Now where are we?" He looked about. A light was glimmering from behind them, a short distance from where they stood. Becky could not walk without great pain, and Fred lifted her lightly in his arms and started for the house. It proved to be the dwelling of a sjaall planter who'was not lacking in hospitality. Here their wants were quickly attended to, and under the cheeering influence of warmth and shelter, Becky was soon herself again. They drove home the following day, Fred having procured the loan of the planter's horse and chaise for that purpose, promising to return them by Mr. Newton's servant the day after. The morning was bright and clear, and the fragrance of the orange groves was in all the air. Becky, who had maintained almost utter silence since their escape from the cottonwood, was no less silent now. Fred himself did not appear particularly communica tive, and many miles ol' the long ride were taken without a remark from either. It was Becky who spoke first. "Fred!" she said. " Yes." " You have saved mv life, have you not?" " Happy to do it any day," he said, not knowing exactly what else to say. " I thank you very much." " Quite welcome, I am sure." There was another long silence, broken only by the sound ' of the horse's hoof upon the road. Fred himself seemed to have lost some of his habitual ease, for he kept his whip in constant motion, and held the reins nervously. " Fred?" "Yes ?" " Are you going to write to that young lady in New Orleans?" " I s'pose so." " Hadn't you-better-try again befoie you-before you write?" He turned his eyes full upon her, and opened them wide. " Try again? try what?" " I've been thinking through the night," said Becky, bonding low lo hide her face and CK. refill ly separating the fringe of her mantilla, " that perhaps-if you asked me again the same question-that you did yester day morning-I might answer a little -different." " Becky's hoad went against Fred's j shoulder, and her face became i'n?nie-1 diately lost to view. '. You darling!" he exclaimed, " 1 never intended to do otherwise. The young lady in New Orleans was wholly a myth. But when, may 11 ask, did you change your mind ?" '.I have never changed ir," she murmured. "I have loved you all :he time, but never knew it until last night." . And to this day, when Mrs. Becky Eckerson is asked where it was that she fell in love with her husband, she answers, "On a Loy." C/ESARisM SQUELCHED.-Governor Dix's Democratic Republican head was " level" when he iv fused thc other day, in a letter to the Mayor or of New York, to sanction the " ann ing" of the city police, and drilling them as a military body. lt. is Bteps like this, the setting ap of an annal force, soldier guards, to overawe tho people, that leads to the final usurpa tion of power by daring despotism, ?iver on the look out to " strike." ll there is i? anything in God's earth that riles the blood of a man, a trite man, it is an armed petty official, who, in being tims armed, tells the citizen that he is looked upon as one who must be governed and ruled by force, instead of opinion. We are glad to see that Governor Dix, Gen eral Dix though he is, knows how to discriminate, touching the introduc tion of military organizations in the government of a people. " Armed police" in the United States, whi.-'h calls itself a Republic, sustained by " opinion" expressed through the ballot box, is an atrocious insult to the people.-N. Y. Day Book. A Columbia, Pa., clergyman, while preaching his sermon one Sunday ...vening, perceived a young man and woman under the gallery in the act of kissing each other behind a hymn book, and did not lose his temper. He did not fly into an unseemly i^ge, and call upon the sexton to rush up the aisle and disband the rioters, No I he remained calm. He beamed mild ly at the offenders over his spectacles, and when the young man kis ed her for the fifteenth time, he merely broke his sermon short off in the middle of " thirdly," and offered a fervent pray er in behalf of " the young man in the pink necktie, and the maiden in the blue bonnet and gray shawl, who were profaning the sanctuary by kiss ing one another in pew No: 68.-" Abd the congregation said "Amen." .Th,en the young woman suddenly pulled hei veil down, and the young -man sat there ?nd ?wore ?oftly to himself.' ,He does hot* .go to church as hauch' now aa ' he did^-Be?lefont?
