" man than an honorable man. A wo linds mans friendship is very likely to bi the result of convenience, contiguity or of being, as my father sneeringly 1U e remarked, '. the only Christians with ,r, in hail of each oilier." Mary showed me all her ?ecrets, and I returned tut compliment, mindful of Burns' ad .t, vice to still ." keon something to my self I wad nor tell to ony." Life settled down into an unexcit ing but endurable routine. Mary ami I visited each uthcr, fur I had invitee! her to pass the cold weather with mi in New York. One day in the mid dle of one of these pleasant chats, a sei vant came in and handed me ;; card. The name on it aroused all thi 'antagonism in my nature. It wa-5 ll "Geoffrey Gardner." I Now it so happened that the exist d euee of ibis gern lem?n was the thins m I kept back in my confidence with ?hied, Mary. So I had now to explain whe BL pud what he?was. I wanted her tc I| come into the parlor vith me-but ILads. no' ?ne W0UM o?ii0me first and dress; I but she promised to be back to tea. jj I disliked Geoffrey, yet I was glad Bl . tu see bim. My mental faculties were H rustin" for want of attention. Father gi wr >nld not quarrel with me, ?nd Ma Hu" ry vv.-is uxy only face card. I could L not throw her away. Besides. I rather liked t" see his great hand acme figure in the room ; he was so I full of life that he seemed to vitalize I the chairs and stools; they tumbled D about and got ont of the way in the m 8'rangos: manner. I told him about VB M <ry Lacelles, and warned him that H- he would lose his heart. He gravely H "_ told me that he had none to lose. B1?- We waited tea tor Mary, bu' she H did not come till quite d-rk, and we Bf h id begun tea ?he said she had II baen declined by company, but I Bi knew better than that. She was Kiers dressed with reference to caudle-light I re,"' eii'ci;t, and would not lose its influ ! of* euee on her first appearance. I never I 1?re ?aw her look so lovely-her rose-col I me. ored dress, with its broad shimmer I arta! iiig hands, of white silk, enhanced I my her charms. Geotfrey looked delight It to e i, Mini she gave him the benefit ? ch- of borh her ni ward and downward I car. glances. ? me When tea wai? over I left the room Bj] I for a few moments, and when I came Heve back I found Geoffrey and .Mary sit Bline ?in?.' opposite each other, wiih the t! 'diess board between them, as an ex Mpes cuse for imitations. The move had Maid been so rapid that I had been aston B er. ished, and a little angry too; and B br- father did not improve the matter by fl nd whispering, as I pissed his chair: I ne. ' Checkmated. Olive." I ;an It was a pleasant evening to me, B and it was the beginning of my un B| pleasantness. 1!j 'i How it came let the doctors tell;" HI in. .but I began to like Geoffrey just as H 'soon ns he began to like Mary. I Bfciy called up pride to the rescue, but it ?leal did not help me ma'h, and I suffered B.'in much in watching Geoffrey's atten ;, tion to Mary, and listening to her Bl""'" prattles about him. I thought her M^r** so supremely silly, an 1 I tola her so. "Hi:i- Sh? was astonished at my petulance, Br. : but I don't, think she suspected the Bl truth. Only father did that, and he 1 to iooked so "served you right, Miss," ?is- that I longed for him to be a woman ^Ame for an hour or so that I might talk Bria back to him. Heh One day, after Geoffry had been a ?Lid month with us, a riding party was ?Iii- proposed to the top of the mountain. ?Ls, Geoffry and Mary, father and I-that B*a- would be the order of cour e, and I 9 was prepared for that; but there is a Bn- last straw to every burden, and my i last straw was this incident : "They ; Hre were mounted and waiting for rae^ Br- when Mary dropped her gauntlet. H From my window I saw Geoffry pick Br.:, it up, put it upon the hand laid so -Bit confidently in his. then kiss it. After ; j that I was not going to ride for "king 9re nor kaiser." I sent a positive refusal ?ry to all entreaties, and as soon as they B^e were out of sight indulged in a good "?ld refreshing cry. I cried myself to Bid deep, and awoke about dusk with a Bly new-born purpose in my mind, which Bb. oomforted me wonderfully, the key Bes note to which was, " she stoops to Bv- ;ouquer." Yet I did not dress again; Bit ? knew they were at tea at Mr. La o-B a .;elles. so I threw ray dressing gown Bp around me, and taking " Red as a Be- Rose is She" in my hand, I ordered a ; B r cup of strong tea, and went into the Bhe utting room. As I walked m at one Ho- door, Geoffry walked in at the other. BBf' " I came to take you to Mr. La !B celles, Olive," he said. 9to <. How Jo you propose doing it, sir? B For unless you bind me hand and B'd foot, and get ?a couple of darkies to :rHm 'tote' me there, 1 really don't think fBy you will succeed." ; B - "I could carry you myself." "Could you?

I am here in Terre Haute. The S room where I now write once re sounded with the eloquence of Abra iain Lincoln. To-morrow ft Chicago drummer will occupy it to sell sheep dodings. It is a shame-a national ?hame-that a room once occupied by Abraham Lincoln and myself should ever echo to the trafficking voice of ti commercial traveler. Alas ! we liv? tn evil limes. Only yesterday I saw them using Mr. Lincoln's two-bun dred-thousand-doltai monument, ovei in Springfield, asa profane theatrical bill-board. They were posting lin yellow hand-bills of a minstrel troupe on it. "Go. base imitation negro! leave this sacred monument," I said ; bul he kept on pastiug the bill its he re marked, " If Mr. Lincoln WHS alive Judge, he would be the last mau tc object to a poor negro minstrel past ing a few hand-bills on his monument.' WAR. Yesterday when I arrived in Tem Haute to stay over Sunday, I regis tered my nume " Colonel Eli Per kins." My arrival caused a great excitement. It was understood that I was going to open a recruiting office for the Cuban war. All the old sol diers here who don't hold lucrative offices ir: the " Granges" are enthu siastic for war. A good man) rebel soldiers have come over the river from Kentucky to live in Terre Haute. They are for war, too. They all de sired to be colonels or generals except one man, who said his neart throbbed so for the Stars and Stripes that he was willing to take a sutlership. I have telegraphed General Grant that Terre Haute alone can supply 1,000 officers, and that ?ill the Government will have to do will be to appoint a few privates. Colonel Gapin says he is ready to fly to arms. He has probably flown before this. He says his heart, burns fw>r the American eagle, and he can hardly keep from rushing on to New York, where he can be first to say "good-by to the brave Cuban patri ots." Adjutant Sterne says he fought all through the late war, sometimes on one sidewind sometimes on the other, and, rather than see America kneel ing at the feet of Spain, he would gladly welcome war-war to i lie knife -and accept a ?teymastership. He is so enthusiastic for the cause that, itt case of no vacancy in our army, he luis telegraphed for a place on the staff of a Spanish General. DRILLING FOR WAR. This afternoon we all assemhl . in the Squnre to drill-nine hundred Union officers, two hundred rebel offi cers, and several sutlers and quarter masters. We all agreed with Alex. Stephens that a foreign war would heal domestic troubles-cement us together. This is why I lend my in fluence to war. I am anxious to heal up our national wounds-anxious to put my aims around my Southern brother and sell him some more dry goods. As the patriots came out they brought their old battle flags with them. Our officers brought out their battle banners which they had carried all through the late war. As they shook out the folds we saw inscribed ot them "Gettysburg," "Lookout Mountain," " Antietam," " Spottsvl vania Court House," and " Vicks burg." The rebels pulled out their flags and unwound the inscriptions "Balls Bluff," " Bull Run,/ "Seven Oaks" and " Red River." When our fellows saw this they didn't "cement" -they didn't " heal" to any alarm ing extent. They said they didn't enjoy looking at battles where they got licked, got wounded and captured, )and cut up generally. Thc rebels said they didn't want to fight under any such inscriptions as " Antietam" and "Vicksburg," and one fellow said if we did/it take the d-d Yankee rags away they'd charge us out of the square. This made our fellows forget all ab"Ut " cementing" and "healing," and, instead, in ten minutes we had a little one-horse re bellion on our hands. As usual, I was first in battle-coming towards the hotel. And now, Mr. Editor, I don't see how we are going to " cement" and ' heal" much-I don't see how we are going to get the rebels to help us innen in the Spanish fight till we get our flags changed-till we carry out Mr. Sumner's ideas. At least I've postponed my recruiting office in Terre Haute till we get a sort of gen eral flag to fight under. What do you think of it? May heaven bless your newspaper and preserve it, from yours truly, ELI PERKINS. Retrenchment and Economy. The Athens Watchman publishes the following resolutions, adopted by the lady members of Clarke County Grange, without a dissenting voice. We think it would be well to imitate this example throughout the country, and that the ladies should set their faces against foolish extravagance, which more frequently embarrasses husbands and fathers than is gener ally supposed. Plain ?ind sensible fashions, adapted to the means of each family, would do much to re lieve the financial pressure, and eua b'e many an honest man to pay his debts. Heie are the resolutions, which we hope will please our lady readers : Resolved, That we believe the time has arrived for us to discountenance all extravagance and abolish pride, and advocate, as far as lies in our power, everything that tends to lead to economy and retrenchment. Resolved, That we pledge ourselves that ?ve will not attempt to follow af ter the worldly fashions of the pres ent dav, believing that WE have the right to introduce, or establish a lash ion for ourselves. 0D0IT0INA.
