"SHE'S ONLY A DEPENDENT."
Adaline Reynolds eat alone in one of the
many rooms ot lier uncle's splendid city
mansion. Yet the brilliantly lighted parlors
were thronged with a gay assemblage.
Why was she thy only one sad ?
It was her cousin Clara's birth night,
and when Clara had been asked who Adaline
was, the cruel answer was, "only a dependent,
a distant relation of father's."
Adaline had heard the contemptuous
reply, and hence she was alone and" weepL
iDS*
Adaline sat, her eyes rested on the silvery
moon, which was shedding its light full
upon her upturned face. That face was
one of the most beautiful imaginableTears
were gathered in the large, soul lit
eyes, and one fell upon the small whito
hand. Adaline at this, started up as if an
adder had etung her, and bruahed the teardrops
from her eyes, saying :
"Back, back to your fountain. Although
I am only a dependent, I will win a name,
and they shall yet be proud of their poor
cousin!"
Slowly Adaline dropped upon her knees,
asking God to guide her in the step she
was going to take.
Wlien slio arose the guests were departing,
for she could hear the carriages as
they rolled away. Yet she did not retire
until the dawn of day. Her slender fingers
were flying over the paper on which
gbe was writing.
The morning sun was shining bright and
beautiful. Mr. Howard sat alone in his
library. He was thinking of the past.
Once more the gray-haired man was a child,
seated around his father's fireside with his
brothers and sisters, listening to his hind
Sire's advice, or looking to catch his
mother's love-lit smile. Then a cloud came
between him and his life of sunshine. The
dcath-angel claimed his fondly loved
mother; another and another passed away
until all was gone but his idolized sister
A . .
AU(k
Her he saw just verging into womanhood.
Another vision passed before him,
his now proud,' aristocratic wife. She had
deceived him, it mattered not how; it was
too late now for remedy. JIlis [daughters,
three in number, had grown up to womanhood,
and inherited all their mother's foolish
pride.
He had heard Clara, the eldest, but the '
evening before, say that Adaline was only
a dependent. The words had sunk deep
into his heart. Was not Adaline his sister's
child?
Again, and Ada parsed before him, arrayed
in her bridal robes. He heard her 1
farewell words, and felt her farewell kiss.
She was going to her western home.
A few short years passed by, when one
dark day a letter came telling him of his 1
sister's death, then of her husband's and
asking him to rear her child as his own.
Did he not love that child as his own F Yes,
nobly hast thou done thy duty to thy dead
sister's child. But alas! thy words were
the only kind ones Adaline received.
While he sat thus, recalling the past,
two soft arms stole around his neck, and a 1
sweet voice said, "Uncle, what are you ,
thinking about ?''
"Must I tell you that it was about my little
pet. Oh! how lonely I shall be when (
she is gone."
"Gone where, Uncle ?" 1
' Why to Mrs. Westbrook's. Did I not
promise to send you next month ?" t
"Yes, Uncle, but I thought you had for- c
gotten it. I am so happy now at the t
thought of going back to dear Walnut Hill I
once more: not at leavinir you. Uncle." 1
and toars came into her eyes a3 she kissed 1
him, who cared more for her happiness
. than for his own. i
Again she murmured the words of the 1
night before, "I -will win a name for his
sake." And in a few moments she was 1
walking down the 6treet towards the post
office, bearing in her hand the treasured c
thoughts that she had penned when hope i
was almost dead in her heart.
"Mother," said Clara Howard, "do you
Kdow ratner is going to send Adaliae Lack s
to school again ?"
"Yes, I know it and I have told him that e
she will repay him with ungratefulness."
Just then Emma came in with a news- ?
|P* paper, saying, "there is such a beautiful a
piece of poetry written in the Gazette, it g
is called thoughts of Heaven; and the editor
has complimented the authoress whose \
name is Lena." - Clara
read it and pourcl forth her praises
an the writer. c
Adaline was in the next room, and her c
heart bounded with joy and hope as she c
recognized her own poem.
Wo twill nnaa nver t.ho farewell, and Ada
line's sadness at leaving her kind uncle.
The "poor dependent" is again Mrs. Westbrook's
favorite pnpil. Adaline tells her ^
pecret to her kind preceptress.
,.7The namo of Lena soon found its way .
L out in the literary world. No one suspectod,
however that Lona, the gifted poetess,
x-as Adaline Reynolds.
S Three years passed, Adaline was still ! ^
with Mrs. Westbrook, for although she had | ^
iong since graduated with the highest j
W^r (honors, she preferred remaining with her j ^
kind friend, and assisting her in her duties j ^
of labor and lov?.
A new light had dawned upon her also, ^
she loved with a ;fcrue woman's heart, and ;
was beloved in return. Yet he knew not ; f
fchat.he loved the poetess Lena. The world j ^
was ringing with her praise; and he too I
had admired the heaven-horn talent of ^
Lena. "
Adaline, on her port, knew not yet that d
Mr. Edward Stanley was sometimes called e'
the Hon. Edward Stanley, and was con- ^
gressman from A .
. . ....
She had met him as Mrs. "Westbroofs
cousin, during a visit he had made to her
preceptress; and they had loved, instinctively.
She had promised to become forever
his the ensuing spring.
She was seated in a pleasant reverie,
when she was interrupted by the servant
girl, telling her that an old gentleman
wished to sec her. He was nono other than
her undo.
In a few moments she was clasped in his
arms.
Mr. Howard thought Adaline more beautiful
'-an ever; and when Mrs. Westbrook
told 1. Adaline was Lena, tears of joy
rolled cU his aged cheeks.
" 1 ' 1 ~ fA WAll1/1 TiOTlfl
"-a.n, iiiicujj jjnu oiuvt) unv ><vuam
have to love her if you were gone ?"
"Even now, darling," answered her uncle,
"I have just given my consent to the
Hon. Edward Stanley, and when you are
the congressman's bride, you may forget
your uncle."
Adaline could not speak for a moment
from surprise, then she said:
"Never, never, will I forget your kindness
to the poor orphan. I would net have been
what I am now, if it had not been for your
generosity. Now, iirnJy^ays Of prosperity
I would be ungrateful indeed to forget you.
But why," she exclaimed, blushing, "did
you call Edward Stanley a congressman?"
"Because ho really is. Did you not know
it?"- V
"Never until this moment."
Just then Mrs. Westbrook entered. Mr.
Howard told her why Adaline looked so be
wildered.
"I intended telling her myself, and ask
pardon for the deception I practised upon
both of them," said Mrs. Westbrook. "I
told Edward this evening our Lena's history
just before he left."
When Mr. Howard returned to the city,
Adaline accompanied him, but she did not
go to his mansion. She stopped with an
old schoolmate.
It was soon noised, about that the gifted
and beautiful Lena was in the city, and her
true name came out at a grand ball, where
her cousin and all their aristocratic friends
were present. Adaline was attended by
her bethrothed husband, Edward Stanley.
She was arrayed in a robe of white satin
embroidered with silver. Her raven curls
were confined by a band of the richest
?; ]?.+ o nnnl-Vifo nF +lif> snmo encir

cled her snowy nock. Her cheeks were
flushed, for she wa3 lotening to her lover's
voice. Bat when the Misses Howard's arrival
was announc. d, proudly, almost
haughtily, did she meet them, with a calm
dignity, befitting a queen receiving her
subjects. She was the ruling star of the
season.
Time passed, Mr. Howard lay on his
death-bed, prostrated by a sudden and mortal
disease.
Adaline had flown to nurse him, for Clara
had eloped with a worthless adventurer.
Edward Stanley was also there.
"Uncle, for so I will call you," he said.
"I am sorry to see you so ill."
"You have just come in time," said the
old man, "to receive my Diessing Deiore 1
die. I have no right to ask the favor of
you, yet I will. Protect my wifo and children."
"I will be to them all you wish/' solemnly
said Edward Stanley. "For your kindness
to me is dearer to rae than life."
The. sufferer smiled faintly.
"Oh, God, I thank thee," he cried. "1
can now die contented."
Emma and Annie, the haughty ball-room
belles, were awed by that scene of death,
and vowed that tbey would live differently,
as they pressed a kiss upon then: dying
father's lips, and saw their mother borne
fainting from the room.
Clara, the disobedient child, was not forgotten.
"Give her my blessing," said the old
man.'* "And tell her I freely forgive her."
A few months and he was joined by his
repentant wife, who died blessing Adaline
with her latest breath, and leaving her two
laughters, now almost penniless, to the
poor cousin's care.
It was a bright and beautiful morn in
the early spring, when Lena, the gifted
and beautiful, stood before the altar, to become
the wife of the distinguished Edward
Stanley.
There, too, were Emma and Annie, look
" ' ** T*T 1. M
ing happily on, wniie aire, utsiuiwn aomed
her congratulations.
It was in a country church that they were
married. There were many there from th?
gay city to witness the ceremony. , _ .
Little children strewed flowers in the
pathway of the bride as she returned to her
carriage.
Edward Stanley not only took his wife,
jut her now dependent cousins.
Adalinejiid not look upon them as such,
lowever, but treated them as sistgrs.*^^
But where was Clara all this time? for
hree years she was not heard from. But
>ne dark winter's night, a pale woman, in
attered garments, might be seen wending
lcrway down to the Hon. Edward Staney's
beautiful residence. Feebly she
cnocked for admittance.
The servant stared at her wonderingly,
vhen she asked if Mrs. Stanley was at
iome.
"Tell her yes," said Adaline, who always
istened to the voice of distress.
The pale supplicant entered, and cast her
sycs on her two sisters, who knew her in a
noment, and at once Adaline received the
vandcrer to her heart.
Clara had come home to Adaline's to diej
i deserted, heart-broken wife.
All that could be done, was done to rertore
her, but in vain.
Adaline's voice soothed her in her wild;st
words of delirium, and it was Adaline's
roice that convinced her she could yet bo
aved.
uiara aiea a true Christian, with the
cords:
"Father, mother; I come."
Thus the proud, contemptuous beauty
iwed her last comforts, nay, even her es?pe
from a pauper's grave, to the "poor
lependent" she had scorned.
A HEAKTLESS JOKE.
The Fort Wayne Sentinel, speaking of the
oolishncss of a small-pox scaro, illustrates
he effect of the imagination by the following:
You have of course heard of persons havag
their imaginations so wrought upon as
o cause their death from some supposed
isease or illness. Now, no one }.as, far as
leard from, been frightened to that extent
n account of the small-pox scare,
mt a case in point happened here
wenty-two years ago, that will serve to
oint a moral if not adorn a tale. The
holera was then raging pretty generally,
nd numbers of people had left Fort Wayne
Baring to be attacked by the sconrge.
rhree doctors were conversing about the
lague, the effect, fear and imagination had
pon people, etc., etc. One of them (now
ead for the last ten years or more) proposi
a test of this. He named a strong, roust
man, a butcher by occupation, named
MM?? ?WMly?h?????
*
Dolman, who then kept his shop on the canal
directly hack of Columbia street. Of
the many strong and healthy men, probably
not oDe could be found who was so nearly a
perfect man physically. He was also at the ,
time in superb health, of full habit and '
good weight. So the trio agreed to, subject
Dolman to the above mentioned test. Each
of the three disciples of Esculapius was to
go into the shop on pretence df purchasing I
meat, and then lead the butcher to talk on
the subject of cholera, or in some way to
impress him with the belief tnat ne was *
about to become its victim.
The first doctor entered the shop, and,
after passing the compliments of the day,
with the proprietor, ordered a pound of
steak. It was cut, and the unsuspecting J
man of meat began to weigh it.
"Why," snid the doctor, "how badly you
look! What is the matter with you, Dolman
?" (
"Nothing at all," [said Dolman^ "never
felt heartier or better in xny life."
"But surely something ails you; you arfe
looking ilL"
"Well," said the victim, "I'm very well;
nothing at all is the matter with me."
I After looking. Dolman a minute the
doctor passed out.
Entered then the second of the trio, '
I tcVia nlnr> rvrrlfired same meat. He likewise
looked aearchingly at the butcher, and then '
said:
"Why Dolman, what is the matter with l
you? You arc looking ill. You're going j
to be sick, I'm afraid." j
The poor man replied that he was not
ill, r.nd felt as well as he ever did in his
life.
The doctor looked dubiously at him and
went out.
The last of the three who had "put up
the job" on Dolman came in after a while.
He requested the butcher to cut him off a
nice piece of steak. As this request was
about to be complied with, the doctor examined
the meat, and remarked in an earnest
way: "No, I wan't take it, that meat
has cholera in it."
This was the last straw. The poor wretch
besran to think he was in a bad way. The
doctor, as soon as he had uttered the rash
words, walked off and left Dolman to his
own reflections, which were none of the
pleasan testDolman
immediately "shut up shop'* and
went home. He fell sick and had, it is said,
as genuine a case of cholera as was ever
seen. The artifice of the medical trio had
succeeded too well. Fortunately, the man's
splendid constitution carried him through,
and he recovered. Had he been a man of
little strength, highly susceptible to disease,
and all that, the result very likely
would have been death.
But that was not all. The doctor who
had proposed the trial attended Dolman
while he was sick, and presented a bill ior
his services. The butchcr, having no money;
couldn'tpay it. To satisfy his claim tho
doctor took Dolman's horse and cart and
sold them to pay his bill, though he himself
was the ^principal cause of the poor fellow's
illness.
The circumstances are doubtless remembered
by many in thi6 city, though tliey
will also be new to numbers of people now
here.
TOIIACCO IN ALGERIA.
The culture of tobacco may now be look- j
ed upon as ono of the principal pursuits of
Algeria. The tobacco crops of 1874 have j
been exceedingly abundant, and the returns J
are double that of the previous year? \
namely, 3,530,G07f. Since the year 18-47 it j.
has been calculated that the cultivation of y
tobacco has realized 54,000,000f. The v
Government is doing its .best to encourage a
this source of industry, and the planters c
are zealously striving to improve their n
fields, and methods of cultivation, so as to v
compete on a Larger scale with other coun- fij
tries. Public attention is also being drawn ^
to the ^mineral wealth of the country.
Throughout last year several French, English,
and American companies have been
exploring various regions of the three provinces
with a view to future enterprise; but C
capital, idads, and means of transportation ^
are wanted. In Constantine, mining opera- 2
ations are actively carried on. In 1873 the
total amount of mineral exports of Algeria
reached 420,662 tons, two-thirds of which
were supplied by Capstan tine. Last yeai 1*
this quantity was exceeded; it is expected p
that the rcturns.will be 490,000 tons. The
colony demands of tnu Government an extended
survey of the mining districts, withi x:
a view to promote a branch of industry so L
important alike to Algeria and France. At
present the number of miners is only 3,500,
the greater part of these being employed
in Constantine alone. A
ONLY THUKIC LEFT. T

Mr. John Mclntire, of East FaIlowfi?ld
township, (Pa.) was a member of Company
H, of the One Hundred and Thirty-third
Regiment, Sixteenth Division, Pennsylvania ^
Militia, which was made up in Crawford
county during the year of 1812, with John
McDowall as captain. Colonel Samuel p
Goutty commanded the regiment. Thejrp

all of these, save James McConnell, now |
living near Sharon, Mercer county, James
D. Mclntire, formerly of Crawford^ county, ^
but now residing in Iowa, and a brother,
John Mclntire, already mentioned, are the J A
only survivors. Mr. McConnell is aged j
ninety-nine years, Jamos D. Mclntire is in i
his eighty-third [year, and John Mclntire in i
his eighty-first year. Thus,of all that band
of Crawford county patriots who went forth I A
to defend their country against a foreign j ^

course of nature, will soon be laid in their
graves.
