J You Haven't Asked me To.' It was a cloudy afternoon in <?uly. 1 The eaily morning had been pronf n nlonsnnt flsiv:'biit like p l""'uu *" t ? v ' a great many prophecies of the 1 prosent time, had proved utterly false. Yet a Sunday-School had determinedly shut its eyes to the ti threatening look of the sky, and e gone on a picnic thirty miles from r home. But the heavy drops of a rain, which fell about the middle of t the day, drove them from their f original place ot destination, the ? famous Lion Creek Bridge gorge, t and sent them on some five miles ? more to the pleasant town of Hor- a wioh. a The excellent -music discoursed Ktt tVin l>nnd which accomDatiied f UJ A the excursionists, as well as the 1 inherent curiosity of man to look s upon strangers, attracted many 1' of the residents of Horwich "down t to the grove," where the picnickers s were. Jack Haviland was one ot l! the many who could not resist the i temptation?Jack and his friend t Marion. Down they went to the t 2:rove, with one umbrella between ? fcliem. t Can anv one hope to describe the feelings of a lonesome young 1' man who wanders through a t>evyi? r>f yonng girls, any one and every 1' mie of whom he desires to lenow ? c Jack was overflowing with that in- " pxpressible feeling. And who can v blame him, or wlio can blame him, 1 or who would expect him to feel ~ otherwise ?. He had been shut up 1' fornix loner months, pr.rinc over 8 "Parsons on Contracts"?a book e so suggestive of love dreame? x "Kent's Commentaries," a "Law a Glossary," and "Tomlin's Law t Dictionary," till his nightly dreams presented a ghostly, troublesome v phalanx'of agents and principals, jl1 of persons who could and whoj ^ would not make contracts of cestui111 que trust and non compos mentis, v while above them all towered TTuoro ? Grotius, conversing in stately Jjntin 1J jure belli et pacts, and of the laws of nations, Can any one centre r Tack for feeling a longing desire ^ for* a littlo human srmpnthv and ^ human contact ? He listlessly lean- ^ ed against a pine tree and looked around him. P .Tnst then two vonng ladies cfime1^ into the field of his vision. One.71 Tack knew, the other was a stran- e rrer. and the other was the one|? Tnek immediately began to admire.!3 ^Iie was of medium height, dressed a ^'niplv. vet tastefully ; a white Oarhnldi waist-?I helieve Jack fonnd r>ut afterward that was the name of/ it?belted in bv a broad rihhon, a v a dark skirt, ?>ver which was loop-i3 ed another striped black and white, j'1 and out from under which peeped; two pretty feet, incflsed in thiek ^ but neat, hoots; a olassipnl head?I though Jack confessed to me. that v if the ficrnre-bead whir-h formed 1 the frontispiece of the Tliad^ and which was held out to innocent freshment as that of the blind "old man elonnent." is classical, why. he! T didn't think hers was?with a great,* mass of hair, real, brown, living' hair, twisted into a grand roil he-/ hind, hut. not so firmly hut that stray littlrt curls had managed to ? creep out here and there to five! themselves airing as the wind flu.t-l* tered around her face; and it was such a sweet, comely face, withal,! that Jack*-most heartily envied jt the wind; and, crowning: all, was' a tasteful bit of head-gear, such as 1 is worn now-a-days. * Jack stood under the pine tree < and lost his heart. But he might just as well have lost it.to the will- i j o'-the-wliisp, *a sprite, or some otnerj 'fearful deception, for what possibil-1i ity was there of his ever eettingj! acquainted with his suddenly eet up1 'divinity, much less of?well, Jack I hadn't as yet exactly defined it in his own mind- + But nature is a match-maker. A rather broad statement, do you say, my gentle reader? Do^s not the old couplet, ; "There's a divinity thatshapes our ends, Rough-liew them as you will," apply to match-maKing as much as to any other course of life ? And do you want any better authority ? ?r1 Just then it began to rain. Jack had his friend's umbrella. It would not do to let her get wet, so without a word Jack opened the umbrella, stalked. over to where she stood, and held it over her. He did it in such an honest, earnest way, she could not take offence. She looked up into his face a smiled. Ja<jk smiled. She laughed a low, rifilling laugh, Jack a hysterically shjlrt one. fht'a tnn had if ruina " anid hTip with the accent on the "too bad," just as girls always speak. v'.'I don't know," blundered Jack, imreply. She looked at him curiously, and said, ''Well,'' in-a self-interrogatorv \vav,.as though she might have said iiW hat sort of an oddity are you ?" and then laughed again. With that Jack also laughed, and came to himself. Then he begau to talk, and they got on grandly. The rain not ceasing. Jack walked home with her, for he found sutthat she lived in to^n. When] they had arrived at her door, ana ?he had thanked him for the use of the umbrella, Jack knew he ought 0 go; but?every young man viiows how it is?he wasn't quite eady. "My name," stammered he, "is rack?Jack Ilaviland." "And mine is Clio Stanley." "And?and I'm studying law i 1 ere in Town. "And I am stopping hero for the 1 inmmer with pupa. I should be 1 lappy to receive a cull from you." Then Jack went homo. 1 The next day Jtick thought it I ill over. The one moment he call- 1 fl himself n fool, the next chuckled < ?ver the action, and decided with i ill the acumen of a country judge, t oward which position he had as- $ >irations, that it was rather "cute," 1 nd if cute, why he, as the perperator, must he pomewhat sharp, vow he .vas inclined to feel sorry j ,nd ashamed over it; then with tn apj eal to the principal heathen leitv of his vocabulary, Jack ex- < tressed himself as '"deuced glad" ] t happened. So he went cm in ? pirit alternating up and down, p ike a boy on a see-saw, provided he boy could ride both ends of the ee-saw at once, which, I suppose 3 in impossibility; but when eventig came b(\ went and called on he young lady. 8he invited him tj call again. Jack did so. Iu fict, he went several consecutive imes. Three years passed away. Jack lad studied diligently, and now for ix months had been a practicing awyer, with every prospect of sucesa. Ail this time his devoted ttentions had been paid to Clio; et in all that time not a word of ,)ve passed between them. Jack ould not and would not ask her to ove him until he could offer her omething more tangible than posT ibilities. But now that he had moo mi^ Vi{id attained _ VV'Il mo Hi vuvw M.?v. ...... , , settled business, he felt the time f o determine his fate had- come; f et how could it be done? The t ery thought distressed him Could ( le?dare he ask her? Could she r :now how n\uch her answer would J neantohim? If she said "yes," i'hat happiness, success; how j rtuoh to live for ! If she said "no?" j ie didn't dare to think. . t The more he thought of it, the j T L r% y-%A Q m A1*D (1 ore lie IICNMUICU, nuu r ie delayed?the harder it became, j U last he determined it should be lone. ( Clio met him as usual with a ileasant smile. Jack tried to smile tut it ebbed off over his connte- p ance, and was lost in his "solemn < xpression," just as a little ivave is j ften lost in a larger. Clio saw ^ omething was going to happen, 1 ? /linittarl infllitlTTO. 11(1, women um.', mviucu hhuhkv^ y what it was. But he had kept pr waiting in suspense and uncerainty so long that now, when it iras about to come, she determined! he would not help him in the east. At length Jack began: "Clio, I'm having considerable msiness now." "Yes," said she, very demurely, rith a quiet little nod; then renpsed into silence without another word. Jin k fidgete d mid thought. 'Why don't she say something and :eep a fellow on ?" "I've got so now I can support; nyself, and? "I'm right glad to hear it,", said :iio. - 1 Jack felt that somehow she was sporting with him, and Hashed up. "Yon never heard that I didn't , support myself, did you?" "No! But then?" . , "i3ut then ? Yon know, Clio, . liiit Arr>r since T.was fifteen?" 1 "Xever mind," &aid Clio, "for it icems as though I have heard a story commencing like that before, Jack." With that. Clio smiled, nnd Jack's momentary displeasure vanished; ret there was left on his mind the undefined impression that, after all, he had been Bold. But the ice ot reserve was broken. "To be plain, Olio,-I came down to tell you that I love you.1' Here came a long pause. Jack looked at everything m the room except Clio. It was getting exceedingly embarrassing to Jack, when there came a quiet "Well ?" from Glio. "And to say,"" went on Jack, as though no interruption had occurred, "that I am in a condition to get married." "That's a very desirable situation for any young man, I am sure," said Clio; and then she laughed that-same tew, rippling laugh he loved so. Poor fellow! why couldn't lie ^iave interpreted the 1 love for him which rounded and ' mellowed that' laugh?. But no;;" he grew desperate, and, with the < thought that she was sporting with ! him, just a little angry. i "I might have known how it ' would end. Any fellow if? a fool J to dangle round any girl for three j years. And he strode toward i the door. Ilia hanfl was upon it. 1 "I might have known you wouldn't 1 have married me." ' "But. Jack"?he turned?"you t haven't asked me to." 1 "Haven't asked you to ?" Jack ( caught the look in her eyes. The ( next moment she was in his armR, 1 and her arms was round his neck, 1 and?well, the fact is, Jack never 1 did ask the question. . After the first happy moments ? had passed, and the ecstacies of the ' acknowledged mutual love had * effervesced?that word seems to ' express the idea about as well as * any?Jack began: "Darling, I have loved you ever t since the first day in the grove. ^ How long have you cared for me ?" 1 "jsmce 1 saw you sianning so lonely and looking bo down-hearted under that pine tree." ^ I think after that reply Jack kissed her. I know I should had I been he. The other day I visited Jack and ^ bis wife. Iu the yard in frontof their home I saw a small pine tree 1 tvhich they tend with the greatest ^ :;are. I asked Jack where he found j it. A smile and a look of peculiar " rignificance passed between him jj md his wife, as he answered, uIn he grove."

On the opening: of the TTniterl ? states Circuit Court, yesterday, ,j District Attorney Corbin, in making 0 t motion for adjournment in re- jj ipect to the memory of the late l"udp:e Wardlaw, spoke as follows: |1 May it please the Court ?

Ex-Chancellor Lesesne, in sec- b Hiding the motion, said : " p May it please the Court?Tt is with n 10 ordinary emotions that I rise to h incond the motion of the United States attorney. It was mv privi- c e<?e to enjoy intimate relations h cith the late Judge Wardlaw du- d inc mnnv years.

The " i r 1 srranting of the motion wmcn rmsm lieen so appropriately made bv Mr. ja Corbin, the attorney of the govern- J ment, and so touchin^ly seconded ) by Chancellor Lesesne, is eminent- I ly due to the distinguished judge C and gentleman, who lias in a ripe n and revered old aere been gathered, to liis fathers.

He would defer any remarks that he would have to J make showing his deep affection Hid respect for this honored judge, i Hid only say what the court must : tself know from its long .connec- ( ion with Judge Wardlaw, that he < >vas deeply respected and beloved < :?y the members of the bar and by \ ;he people of the entire State. He, < ;herefore, simply brought the aad i jcourrence to the attention of the < jourt, and moved an adjournment j is a mark of respect and attention 1 :o the memory ot the late Judge i Wardlaw. j Judge Graham stated that in. 1 cranting the motion he desired to 1 jear testimony to the high charac- 1 er of Judge Wardlaw. It was in 1 lis court that he iirst entered upon i he nractice of his r>rofession? and < r a 4 ie would always cherish the cow- 1 esy and kindness that the deceased tad always extended to the young nembers of the bar.

In 11 his relations, as a citizen, lawyer | nd Judge, he occupied such a po- c ition in this State as to make the ^ ccasion of his death one at which j re should pause. He was a patri- : tic citizen, an educated gentleman t nd an able and profound lawyer. a Fe was a conscientious and jnst ldge. The exigencies which sad- ^ enl.y occur in the progress of life e ansed bim to retire into private r fe, otherwise he would have held t be eminent p'osition now odcnpied a y your Honor, the chief justice on j his bench.
