W>1 24 iy OB IG IN A L STORY. THE FALSE COUNT. BY WINNIE; "Who is that beautiful girl to whom you bowed so familiarly ?*' said Jiuimie Earle to William Greenwood, as they proceeded down the hteps of the City Hotel. ' i'hat is Kate Lee, your cousin and mine, Jtmmie," said Willie j "really you must have left your memory utnoug the beauties of 'Paris,' if you cannot recog nise your nearest ol kin." "You forget William, that it is nearly ten years since I hist i, :liehl Kate, she was then a lively little hoyden, of seve ral years old ; thu lupne of ten years makes a wondrous difference in a lady, whatever, it may do with a gentleman." "Nay, if you begin to discuss time's changes, Jiuimie. 1 must confess, you can't congratulate yourself upon having escaped a touch of his lingers. Who, in that bronzed complexion and hirsute vi.-age, eould discover any traces of the mionth-'chccckctl boy, whom 1 saw on the deck of a French packet sliip, some ten years ago. But tell mo why you didn't write thut you were coining home. Because I didn't know my own mind, Willie; I really wasn't certain about it until i had been a week at se.t. The odd pmuuucia tion of my German vui -t havingouused my name to be placed on the list of passen gers, as 'Mr. Arle.' it occurred to me | that the mistake would enable me to retui u incognito, and 1 thought L would humor the joke, il but io see how many of my old friend.-; would recognise me. I ar rived here late last i vetting, and should now be a perfect Stranger in my native city, had I not accidentally met you this morning; and even you. Willie, didu.'tat , rfirst k"ii"w mo. I "Know you, Charlie! who the deuce could even sen you behind that immense growth of brushwood upon your lip aud cheek ! Do you reullj mean to wear thost enormous whiskers and moustaches?'' '?Certainly not longer than suits 1113 pre sent purposes, Vt i11 its. When 1 was in Germany 1 learned to we ir moustaches j for the same reason I learned to smoke the meerschaum, because everybody else did it. In Paris 1 reduced them a little, but didn't entirely banish them, because there I also found them lushionuble. A 1 lively little French lady, a passenger in our ship, wagered a piir of I'uris kills that I would not wear them n week in America; i accepted the bet, and for one week you will ace mo bearded like tho pard." I '"Nay, ii you like them," said Willie, laughingly, "you need not seek an ex cuse for wearing them, they are iiuito the fashion, and ladies now estimate a man. not 11s thoy once did, by his attitude, but j by tho length ot his whiskers." "1 have ii" desire to win u lady's favor by wearing an urishaveii face," answered Jimmic; "but pray, Willie, tell some thing more abi'Ut our pretty cousin. She is as lovely in character, Jiminie ns she is iu porsou, but she Ii s one great fault, like the niest of our fashionable belies, she lias a mania for .everything foreign. Ilcr tlinnnere, her dress, her servant all come frotu abroad; and she declared to me reyiaMly Vier resolution never to I ' marry M 'A., ori. an." j "What is it that my fair country wo men so much admire in their foroign lov ors? (tli ! thoy say there is a polish an elegance of manners belonging to foreign brs which ?Americans' never possess. Two of Katie's intimate friends have j recently inn- -id scions of some uutcdi- | l?vian German family, and our lovely cousin is ambitious of forming an equally sploodid alliance.-' "If she were to mart") a Western farmer," said Jiuimie. with u smile, she would reigu over ti principality quite as large, and perhaps mure nourishing than usually belongs to these emigraot nobles Kate is a noble-heaited girl." replied Wi.lie. and I wish she etiuld be eurcd ol her lolly." "If she is really a .sensible girl, and that is her only tault , 1 think silo might be cured." Willie shook his head. ' Coino and dine with IttC, Willie; be careful to till Do one of my arrival, and we'll discuss the matter over n bottle of old Madeira, if you are not too fashionable to drink. Tho wind.?ws of Mrs. Lee's house pouted a iloml of light through the crim son silk curtains upon the wet aud dreary looking street, while thu music heard at it'tcivab told the rich were making mcr ry. Tho decorated rooms were.brilliant! with on army of youth and beauty, but fairest amoiigfhem all stood tho mistress of tho festival Attirod in a robe of white crape,'With no other otnntneuts than her pearls, she looked the personifi cation of joy.. ?'Cousin Willie," she- exclaimed, as she saw her "futrorite cousin enter the room, "you have not bven here these three days ;" and then, in a lower tone, I she added. "Who was the splendid Don whiskers ndo Wft-h whom 1 saw you walk ing yesterday V Willie laid bin linger on his lip as a tall figure emerged from the crowd at the entrance of tho door. "Miss Lee, a flow me to present to you the most noble Count D'Orsay." The blood mounted into Katie's ehcek as the Count bowed U>w over the baud which he hastened to secure for the next, quad- 1 rille. There was a mischievous sparkle in Willie's eye, and a deep and earnest devoted ness in"* the stranger's manner, which made her feel a little uncomforta ble, though she knew not why. A single glajtco sufficed to show her | that the Count was attired iu a magnifi cent court suit, with diamond buckles at the knee, aud a diamond baud looping up the elegant chapr.nU'linis which on- j cumbered bis arm. After some minutes 1 she ventured to look at him more cour- ' agonusly. i He was tall; nn? exceedingly well- [ shaped; his ? yes were very bright, but ilie chief attraction was a beautiful mouth, garnished with the most splendid moustache that over graced an American ball room. Katie was delighted. Ha danced cieg.'Utlyy not with the stiff awk ward manner of an American, who al ways seem half bghtiuicd ol the undigni fied part he is play ng, but with a buoy- 1 aney of step an<M,Muec of inofton perfect ly unrivalled. Katie was enchanted lie Bp dec I''ug.Uil{^ery well; a slight German necc'n'i alone betrayed bis for cign birth, and Katie did not like him ' the less for it. It is true she felt a little (jtiuer when she found herself whirl- ' iug through the dance with an entire stranger, ami bearded lips upon her hand as he placed her iu a seat ; but this was only the freedom of foreign mannet s The evening passed away, like a dream, and Katie retired toher room with burn ing cheeks and a frame exhausted by what she deemed pleasure. She was loo touch excited to sleep, and when she np- j pen red at her lather's breakfast table, (a duty she never utfglcclcd,) it was with such II pale check and heavy eve that he was scriou.-ly alarmed. "These late hours will kill you, my child." said he. ; as he kissed her forehead. "I shall re turn at noon, and if vor. are still so lan guid 1 shall send for the Doctor." So saying be slept into his carriage and drove to his counting room, where immersed in business, he forgot Katie's ; cheeks, until the dinner hour summoned j Iii in from his dingy little office to his st. tcly mansion. As he cutercd the door, he recollected her exhausted look. "Poor child," mur inured he, "1 wonder how she is?*' A low musical laugh struck on his ear as tin: servant opened the drawiug-rooin door, the sight of lo r radiant e> unten unce, looking mole brilliant than ever, as she sat between cousin Willie and the Count, soon quieted his fears. The coldness which lin S''.Iutc?l the no bio Count, formed a :.:;,'?.,?- contrast to the cordial warmth with which he graaped the haul of his nephew. "(Had . to see you. William, couldn't sp ak to you last night, you were surrounded by SO many pretty girls. l>y the way. boy," drawing him aside, - who is that fellow ?" "That is Count P'Orsay, uncle." ?M'hi'y, what is his business?" "Business"! why im chief hu.-imvs Is to receive the revenues of his principality." "Princi pality '. fudge, a few barren acres, 1 sup pose It won't do, WUHatu, it won't do '. Kate deserves something better than a mouthful of moonshine. What tho deuce did yon bring him hear for? I don't think I cad tic.it him with common civility if it were ub' for your sake." j "My dear Kai", )ou have all your whims gratified,'' said her father one morning about two mouths alter her ac quaintance Willi the CoUllt. "MoW \oU must indulge one ui mine. Adopt as many foreign fashions as you please, out remember that you never, with my con sent, in .rry any other than an American My fortune has been made by my own industry. And no empty titled foreign er shall ever reap the fruits of my toils." Tho earnestne.-s of these admonitions from a parent who bad never spoke ex cept in words of unbounded tenderness, first led her tu look into the depths ol' her heart. She was almost terrified at her owu re searches, when site found that she had allowed the image ol the Count, to oc cupy its in mos', hidden recesses. Uitter ly did she ropont her folly. "I vvish he wore ao American," she sighed, "und yet, if lie was, he wouldn't, bo hull' t>o pleasing." How devoted his manners arc, how much feeling there is iu ull he says and does ! Poor girl ! she was like the las eiuated bird?she dreaded his power, yet slip could uot withdraw herself fro in its influence. She was sitting alone one morning, brooding over her .. elancholy forebod ings, when the object of her thoughts entered. Seatiug himself beside her, ho com ^ meuced ji conversation full of those graceful nothings which women love to hear. Katie was iu no moud lor gnyetv The Count watched her carefully and earnestly, after awhile he changed the topic to one of deeper interest. He spoke of himself, of his business adventures, of his present aud personal feelings, aud finally ol his: approaching departure for Europe. Her cheek grew pale, but suppressed the cry which rose to hur lips ; the Count gazed proudly, upon her, seized her hand ami clasped it closely between his own, he poured Ibrlh the ytogt passionate expression of affec tion. Euultcr'ni;:. ioit frankly, si e stated ] her lather's objections t(, l,rr union with a stranger. 'On'v ti ll me. Katie d Ill ing, that your father's prejudices are the solo obstacle, said the Count p:>s innate ly, say that you love .nc, and I will Lo contented. For the love of Heaven, ansiver tue if but by a look. Timidly the dowu cu-t eye was raised to his, and lie was ..vswerod. Then she covered her face with her hr.nd-, am*, hurst iu rears. "Katie." said ti e Cftuuf, "You love me, those precious tears as sure me that you love me." ??lie iniuc, sweet "o.>. y >ur father will uot be inexorable.?he adores you." ??Therefore," said she, 'you would have tue make hi . wretched lor life.

'?Von reject Count U'Orsay 5 will you also refuse the hand ol' y ur mad-cap cousin ?HuiUiic Earlu, whose little \vi('q y HI were ten years ago '('? Katie stalled from her seat in wil i surprise. "What mentis all this ? Jimmie Eurlu the t Jouut '." The sudden revulsion of fueling over owcred her, and her cotlsill Willie en- 1 tend the room oulj iu time to see her ' faint away iu Jimmie's arms. Now the anger of tbe lady, whun shu recovered and learned the trick vehicle was practised upon her?tilt! Satisfaction ol her father, aud the final reconciliation ol ail differences ! Alter a lew weeks a party Was again assembled in the drawingn oin.

"Aye, aye, James." said the happy lather, vif American women would value a man l?y tbe weight ol his brain, rather that! tbe ligllttlOSM of h>s heels, aud the Htfetigth ol his principles, rather than the elegance of his manners, we should I havo less of foreign foppery, nod more <<[ homely virtue in our country." The fifteenth amendment is meeting with opposition from an unexpected (juavter. Senator tiuulsbury, of Dal a were, yesterday astonished his colleagues by presenting a memorial piayii'g tor such legislation as will secure the 0 vuruiuuut id' the Uuited Stales lo the white ruoe. This uxUaordiuury petition is inturKpuiscd with quotations from the eldor Adams, Jefferacii aud LuiCC>'n Koyr u Lud Wheeled Himself into For t line undluflueuce.

We use his own language : "Nearly half a century ago, gcntlemcu, I was put upon the world to make my living. 1 was stout, willing aud able, considering my tender y< ars. and secured a place in a hardware store to detail sorts of chores required. 1 was paid seventy five dollars per year for my boyish ser vices. One day, after I had been at work three mouths or more, my friend tin rc Mr. II . who holds his tlgC remark ably well, came into the store and bought a largC bill ol shovels aud tongs, sad-irons and pans, scrapers, and scuttles, lor ho was to be married next day, aud was Supplying his household iu advance, as was the groom'a au&tjoip in those days; The articles were piek'd 0U the barrow and piudo a, load sufficiently heavy for a ynuug mule.

The School Dill. M. ".Ml Th j School Bill before the Legislature of this State, haa some very good pro visions and some very objectionable. Thu control of the education of the children of the Stute is, by the provisions of the Bill, indirectly vested iu the Governor, und the people will have no influence or power over the teachers of their children . We say the povf or is vested in the Gover nor*, who muy turn out to be an lufide), or Mormon, or Fouricritc, or any sort ofS moral or political monster, and yet, by ' the power uuconstitutionully given tor him, he may control every single free school iu every County in the entire State. There is a mooarcltey established by the Bill iu the training nnd education of the children ol the people. The eitiions of a Couuty or Township will bo obliged to submit to jus* such tcaehera and instructors as the Governor and his creatures umy select. This is easily I proved. The Stato Constitution requires j caoh County to cloct oue School ?7?aiKi niissioncr to have charge of the public _ schools, seems plainly to intend that this most important duty shall be discharged by officers selected by the people; but lo 1 this School Bill authorizes the Governor to appoint, in each County, two persons to act with the School Coniurbsioner as. a Board of Education, aud thus gives {the servants of the Governor a majority I iu every County Board. They arc to j select und remove teuebers, and do all other things in control of the schools.? ?

A stormy night came and three of the sheep died. McFarlaud had a chunk j of a boy iu his employ who was not up tu j sheep talk; and ho ordered the boy to go aud pelt the sheep: He came buck in a couple of hours, and McFarluud asked him how he had got ou; to which he demurely replied: "?h, middling; I got the most of them, but there was throe 1 could uot catch."
