The- glorious sunlight flooded the

Mrs. WimxIh had gone to attend the

Julian Woods, her eldest son, had gone

? Then"she got thinking of him, "How

lL,w long Ouseio would have mused

She would have arrived. Perhaps Gus

Montague Bailey. Perhaps her musings
upon which wo have intruded, would
have revealed more of her thoughts, and
hiay have told iis of some little passage*
between him and herself. Dot she was
interrupted.
Down the avenue, leading from her
mother's to Dr. Ilnzlcwood's, she saw ap
proaching her brother Julian, leading
his horse, and walking nloi|g with him
waft Montague Bailey.
Oufcaie stopped musing at once, and

"By henven ! Julian, it is n lovely

"YcmI I see mother has gone to

'?Oh yes! Didn't I leave my pipe
here, Julian? Yes! here it is! Una

?Hallo! hero's Ou.*ie! I thought

Kcv. Mr. f>houtcu?'s voice, uud look mg

"I couldn't go to churoh very well'to
day, why 4?dn't you and Julian go '!"
"Wo profcrrcd to sleep late, and take
a quiet walk over here. How pretty
you look thi? morning. Gussie! I'll
swear, Julian, I am getting desperately
iu love with this little Gussie of yours !"
'?Oh ! pshaw ! Montaguo, let's havo a
milk punch, and thou a nap before din
ner, what do you say V*
'?Yes, to the milk punch ; no, to the
ap. I want to talk French with Gus
sic this morning."
The milk punch was made and dis
posed of, end Julian retired for n nap,
leaving Montague Bailey to talk French,
or anything cli*e, and Ouasie to put away
spoons, sugar-dish end milk-pot.
While Montag?? is waiting, p:pc in
mouth, fur his little friend Gussie to be
seated for a chut, lot us introduce luin to
you reader, for he will be an acquisition
to your acquaintance.
As he sits in the window now, hi.-> at
titude is characteristic. He appears a
musing, dreaming lazily, elegant youth,
one who has seen most of life's fluctua
tions, one of a latent and slumbering en
ergy which no adequate incentive has
ever stirred into action, one who is drift
ing, asleep and droatuing, in some Boft
jiliding boat ndown the tide of time and
life, one who has never loved or who is
ever iu love, with some ideal of his fan
cy, with all the beauty of nature, one
whose soft hand aud graceful motion
spoke of the Kitaciter in motto, while an
involuntary Hash of his eyes, unasked
and uubiddeu told of ihu fortitrr in re.
Such was his nature as suggested and
expressed by his attitude. His person
nrl, was about as Gussie had it iu her
musings, not decidedly handsome, but
pitssessing some striking aud distinguish
ed points. g? .
Such, reader, was our hero !
'?Well, Gussie. if you have finished
your household duties, come and sit over
lv. iu nod witch the breeze iu this win

''No, sir, 1 was looking at thu book,
only to despair of my ever mastering the

"But I don't know that I havo learned
that language of the heart, hoW Pan I
speak it."
"Gussie, learn it unW. Let your heart
speak it*s own language and tell me if you
love."
And Gussie's heurt did speak ith first
word that day. It told itH first secret.
It spoke out what it had felt for a long,
long time. It spoke in her eyes, ns she
-looked at Montague, iu her attitude, us
she leaned her head upon his breast, in
the pressure of her hand in his. Her
heart spoke that day in the boat of its
very life. Love is life !
Gnf-sic lived and loved. Her heart's
beat trtltl of its existence and its love to
gether.
Montague Bailey spoke this language
and understood it.
The French has boe'ii said to be the
language of flirtation, btlt this, the
langtiHgo of th'i heart, this is lovo'fl owh
urtieulation.
! Well, reader, this is how Montague
Hailey popped the question.
Of course, he kissel Gussie Woods
that day. We need not tell yon that.
And their vow, that solemn uttoranco, in
that holy voice of love and truth, spoken
in that language of the heart, the same
voice of harmony that vibrates through
iinturc. that rapt inspiration hears in the
grand ''tnusio of the spheres," and that
resounds at His throne who is love, their
vow was registered iu Heaven, by that
rccordiug Angel, who is of the Cheru
bim, "who love the uioat."
Julian Woods awoke from hisunp;
the church party returned, and that
goldeu summer day waned and faded
into dusky eve, y b I that bright sum
mer faded into blown autumn, its young
leaves withered and rustled to the chill
earth, its breezes grew hoarse and cold,
its flowers bloomed no ui<>ro forever.
Montnguo Bailey told them thut uight
thnt circuiust-auce, "thut unspiritual god
and miscreator," compelled hiiu to leave
thnt neighborhood. He undo adieu to
that quiet homestead and its loved ones,
und departed.
But Gussio Woods knew he wouid re
turn ! Yes! faithful to his plighted
word, spoken iu luve's holy language,
upon the merry Christmas night, when
the yule log burned upon the hearth and
lighted Gussie's happy face, Montague
Bailey came and claimed his little friend
to be his little wife.

Sow York Fashions.
NknVI ORT, ?September, 1SG0.
This charming watering-place is this
year as iu years past the most exclusive
and aristocratic in the Union. The
richest people arc here in the greatest
nnmbers, the equipages are the most
imposing, the dressing the most lavish
and at the same time the most artistic.
Even the young men here dress as befits
the escorts of such birds-of-Paradise look
ing belles. The usual costume for young
gentlemen is white duck or light cloth
punts, black, green, purplo or golden
brown velvet coat made* sack shape with
large and well worked pockets, vest of
white Turkish Towel cloth, Sailor hat
of straw with wide ribbons?bright kid
gloves.
Ladies here frequently order their
costumes from New York. This is found
to be a be!(er plan than taking several
trunks along at the beginning of the
season, for in this way the freshest styles
can be exploited?and even hits of styles
to be, such as are constantly coming over
from Paris, can be embodied. The lady
sends her measure and order, in a few
days she has her suit. The following is
an out door costume for damp days, made
at the Metropolitan Furnishing Booms :
A suit of the new water proof material
in shot colors, violet and goldeu brown.
This wa? very simple but at the same
time very stylishly made. The skirt was
short and round, and faced around the
bottom with a bias f: eing of the same,
stitched on the Orover & Baker machine
with a double row of bruwu silk same
shade ns the brown iu the dress, nod
between them a row of stitching in silk.
A small tight fitting basque accompanied
it, the waist of tlie skirt was finished to
match the bottom so thut it could be
worn orrr the basque as well as under it.
and thus have the effect of a round waist,
the bottom of the basque and the sleeves
were trimmed with bias bands stitched
to match the waist and bottom. For
occasions when greater warmth might
be required the tunic could be worn.
Thia tunic was a'very happy compromise
between s WuttcftP casjquo and a
Mackintosh wrap. 'J ho fronts wore suck
shape, the sleeves being formed of the
half-cape were loose and large, but the
backs instead of having the plain night*
gown look of the Mackintosh was pleated
on nt the neck in two box pleats and
allowed to fall u la Watteau?a belt of
brown leather stitched in fancy pattern
on thu machine was slipped through
large button-holes formed in the seams
of the half-cape eleeves and agnin in and
out of a couple made under tho Watteau
pleat, thus allowing that and the sleeves
to fall gracefully and free, nud causing
the front and tho sides of the buck to fit
themselves to the figure. If desired, tho
edges of the tunic on each side of thu
fall might be looped up and thus effect
u punier puff.
Another was a reception dress chilly
days. There arc many such days always
on the sea coast, though here fewer than
clse-wherc, owing to the peculiar geogra
phical position of this island. This
costume will give ah Idea of styles later
in the season. It has a very heavy black
silk with black velvet rears ut the side.
The fronts of the dress weft? ot black
velvet cut to fit tho figure, and open to
show the petticoat beneath. They arc
fastened pretty close togetlitff with black
velvet bows, the sleeves are )(*r?e Pagodas
striped with black velvet which formed
battlements hs a trimming. Accompany
ing this is a thin silk bodice, high necked,
with light Atting sleeves to be v>n>
under it and a long naSgslip of the
Btiiio to he buttuucd U8B&3 front in
imitation of a petticoat, t^HRttou holes
are worked on tapes seweu^u the inside
of the dress, aud thejbuttpua which are
of blue silk arc sewn on the silk strips?
the same style of buttous lasten the under
waist, which is so boautif'ully fashioned
and finished, that on warmer days, itcau
bo worn over a white skirt when the slip
that belongs up the front may be MS?S
to loop the upper skirts en, panier?the
buttous which are for use iu ouu instance
being for orusmcut iu another. Blue
satin slippers should be worn, with it J
with white skirts. The back of this felt
from the neck iu the Watteau pleat,
now so much uficctcd?nud an ornament
of blue cord and black chenile held it
down on the neck to about the depth of j
a yoke. A mo*c effective mode of mak
ing many aud distinguished looking toi
let.- at a small outlay could nut Well be
devised. We are glad to see the old
fashion of trimming hilk with velvet
revived. Velvet is one of the few
trimmings which t pays to p/irehasc and
to pay even a high price for.r

A Georgia Scene*
Many years ago, when the Stale of
Georgia was in its infancy, one of the
Circuit Judges was Bela J'ro%n?an an
cestor of the "socesh" Govcfnor of that
name. He was 3 man of ability aud in
tegrity, but like a good many distin
guished persons of that day. lie loved a
social glass; and whenever the members
of the bur would turn iu and help, he
sometimes drank to excess and became
gloriously fuddled.' On one- occasion,
while traveling on his circuit^? reached
the village of Dayton, iu DoVily county,
where the court was to be opened next
day. and took quarters with e.+c]ative of
his wife, that lady accompanying hi..:.
Supper being over, Judge Un-wu strolled
out to the only tavern in the^ilnec, kept
by one Sterritt. where he met a number
of his legal friends. A convivial even
ing ? as passed ; drinks frequently went
round, and somewhere about midnight,
the Honorable Bela was in a state ot
mind quite the reverse of that implied
by tjjc old saw. "sober as. a Judge."
When he was leaving for home, one of the
young lawyers, in a spirit of mischief,
slyly passed some spoons from the tum
blers into the Judge's pocket.
On dressing himself next moaning, the
eccentric official, putting his hand into
his pocket, was greatly perplexed in dis
covering three or lour rilvcr spoons.
'?.My (T..d ! Polly," said he to his wife,
'?just look her-.; I believe I've stolen
some of Sterritt's spoons !"
"Let's see them." said his wife. "Yes.
suro enough?here's his veritable ini
tials ! P?-ay how did you happen .to have
them in your pocket V
"I think 1 must have been drunk
when I came home, wasn't 1 V inquired
the J udge.
'?Yes," replied the devoted Polly,
' you know your old habit when you get
among those lawyers."
"Certainly ; 1 can understand easy
enough how it all came about. That fel
low, Sterrit?, keeps the meanest liquor
in the State ; but I never supposed that
to driuk it would make a man steal?"
The spoons were duly returned to the
landlord, and the Judge went and open
ed his Court, thinking no more of the
matter. Several days elapsed, and the
business of. the Court was drawing to a
elo-c, when one morning n rough looking
customer was arraigned before his Honor
for larceny. He pleaded guilty, but said
in mitigation, that he was drunk at the
time ho committed the offence.
"What is the nature of tho charge
against this mail f" enquired Judge
Brown.
"Stealing mouey from the till at Ster
ritt's tavern," repliod tho clerk.
?'?Young man," said the Judge solemn
ly, "are you sure you was intoxicated
whon you took this money ?"
"Yes, your Houor,* I was so jolly
drunk that thiugs looked like they was
dancing double shuffles, und when I went
out doors the ground kept coming up
und hitting me ?u tho head."
"That will do," replied the Judge.
"Hut tell me, did you get all the liquor
you drank nt Sterritt's V
"Every drop of it, your Honor."
"And so you got tipsy on his liquor,
und then utule his money If"
"That's it, exactly; I didu't know
what 1 was doing."
Turning to the prosecuting attorney,
the worthy magistrate s^iu . *u>a \s a
inO?t oiiiumuiiiury uu?o, Mr. Attorney,
and one, I think, demanding the clemen
cy of tho-Court. You will therefore do
me the favor of entering a nolle jtrote.
That liquor of Stcrritt's I have reason to
know, is mean enough to make a man do
anything dirty. I got drunk on it my
self the other oigl^.. and stolo nil his
spoons ! If Stcrritt will sell such abomi
nablciiuff ho ought not to have the pro
tection of this Court. You may release
the.prisoner, Mr. Sheriff.

VVo?Min't Sk.k It.?The worthy
gentleman who rules the rising genera

see had occasion to correct a little hoy
named Johnny. Now Johnny had what
is called "sulks," because he was whip
?od, and in order to convince him that
he was justly and necessarily punished,
his teacher had recourse to the following
argument :
?'Well. Johnny, suppose you were
riding a big horse to water, and had a
keen switch in your hand, and all at
once the horse were to stop and refuse
to go any further, what would you do?'
Johnny stifled his sobs for au instant,
and looking up through his tears, inno
cently remarked: *T'd cluck to him,
sir."
"But, Johnny, suppose he wouldu't
go for your clucking, what then V
Ul'd get down and lead him, sir."
"And what if he were obstinate, and
would not let you lead him ''"
"Why. I'd take off his bridle and
turn him loose, and walk home, sir."
"You may go and take your scat,

Johnny could not be made to see tho
necessity lor using tho switch.

Tue Wboko Man in tiik Wroso
Place.?A few days since a young
couple, just married at Wutcrhury, Ct.,
got on board a train on the Natigatuck
road, bound for Bridgeport. They had
a sweet time, billing and cooing in proper
style, until the train reached tho junction.
While waiting tho groom took a stroll
on the platform, aud the bride also im
proved the time to walk to the forward
of the car. As the train started she
returned, and seeing her husband, as she
supposed, seated comfortably; she popped
into the same scat, and lovingly rested
her head on his shoulder, while the cars
passed through the covered bridge. Un
fortunately, she had mi--taken her man.
and as the cars emerged from the bridge,
a trembling voice whispered iu her car
that he didn't quite comprehend the
situation. I.miking up, the bride fouud
an unknown blushing youth, while her
liege lord was standing in the aisle with
a look of blank astonishment on his face,
not knowing what to make of "such
conduct as thoso." Tho r rror was cor
rected at once, but tho fun was too much
for the other occupants of the car, and
every sleeve contained an enormous
though quiet laugh.
To Mauk SAvkkt Pickle*.?A I dy
correspondent of the Country Gentletktn
gives the following recipe fur making
sweet pickles:
Cut the tomatoes through, or if large,
slice in three ; let them stand in weak
briue over night. To a quart of vinegar
throe pound* of sugar ; in this viucgar
cook the tomatoes until a fork can easily
be passed through them. As fast as they
arc cooked, take them out with a fork
and lay them down iu a jar?say two or
throe luycrs of tomatoes; sprinkle pulver
ized cinnamon and cloves, and a thin lay
er of sugar; then alternately tomatoes,
spices and sugar, cooking all the tomatoes
in the same vinegar; if necessary, add
more sugar and vinegar. When the jar
is filled, covor the tomatoes with good
cider vinegar cold, throwing away the
vinegar in which tomatoes wore cooked.
Lay sonic horse radish root over the top
of the pickles, and put a weight on to keep
them covered. Jhis recipe is equally
good for cucumbers. I have tested it for
the past two years, and found no trouble
in keeping good pickles.
