BY WINNIE. i ?. t '? iOi\'J.: ,\* ' '.' t aa ,t>J':i "Who is tliat beautiful girl to whom you bowed so familiarly?" said Jinimie Earle to William Greenwood, as they proceeded down the steps of the City Hotel. "That is Kate Lee, your cousin and ininc, Jimmie," said Willie j "really you must have left your memory among the beauties of 'Paris,' if you ounnot recog nise your nearest ol kin." "You forget William, that it is nearly ten years since I last beheld Kalo, she was then a lively little hoyden, of sevc ral years old ; the laprnj of ton years makes a wondrous difforenco in a lady, whatever, it may d> with a gentleman "Nay, if you begin to discuss time's changes, Jimmie, I must confess; you can't congratulate yourself upon having escaped a touch of his lingers. Who, in that bronzed complexion and hirsute rh-uge, could discover auy traces of the jmootlrchceckcd boy, whom I saw on the deck of a French packet ship, some ten yours ago. Hut tell mo why you didu' write that you were coming home. Because I didn't know my owu mind, Willie; I really wasn't certain about it until I had been a week at .sea. The odd prouuueia tiou of my German valet having caused my uauic to be placed on the list of passen gers, as'Mr. Arle,' it. occurred tome that the mistake would enable meto return incognito, and I thought I would humor the joke, il but to see how many of luy old friends would recognise me. I ar rived here late last t veiling, und fcliould now be a perfect stranger in my native city, had I not accidentally met you this inoruiug : and even you, Willie, didn't at ? . . Jll_?- -???' VMrToow me. "Know you, Charlie! who the deuce could oven fee you behind that immense growth of brushwood upon your lip aud cheek ! Do you really mean to wear tho.**' enormous whiskers and moustaches'{" '"Certainly not longer than suit** 1113 pre sent purposes, W illie. When i was in Germany I learned to wear moustaches for tho same reason 1 learned 10 sumko the meerschaum, because everybody else did it. Iu Paris I reduced thcili a little, but didu't entirely banish them, because there I also found them ta.-hionable. A lively littlo French lady, a passenger in our ship, wagered a pair of PariB kids that I would not wear them a week in America; I accepted the bet, and for one week you will see uie bearded like tho pard " "Nay, il you like them,!: ?uid Willie, laughingly, "you need uot seek an ex cuse for wearing them, they are quite the fashion, aud ladies now estimate a man, not as they once did, by bis attitude, but by tho length of his whiskers." "1 have no desire to win a lady's favor by wearing an unshaven face," answered Jimmie; "but pray, Willie, tell some thing more about our pretty cottsiti. She is as lovely in character, Jimmie ns sh is in person, but she In ? one greut fault like the most of our fashionable belles she hns a mania for everything foreign Her monhers, her dress, bei servant all come from abroad; and she declared to mo reyutti'd'y v^j. rC8o|utiuU uevcr to mnrry ah 'Aii or'uan." "What is it that my fair country wo men so much admire iu their foreign [?V orsf" Oh ! they Bay there is a polish an elegance of manners belonging to foreign ers which 'Americana' never possess. Two of Katie's intimate friends havo recently married sotous of some antedi luviau German family, aud our lovely cousin is ambitious of forming an equally splondid alliance." "Tf she were to marry a Western farmor," said Jitnuiio, with a suiilo, she would rcigu over a principality quite as large, and perhaps more flourishing than usually belongs to these emigrant nobles Kate is a noble-hearted girl." replied Widie, "and I wish she could be cured ot her folly." "If she is really a sensible girl, aud that is her ouly fault; 1 think she might bo cured Willie shook his head. "Come and dine with mc, Willie ; be careful to tell n one of my arrival, and we'll discuss the j matter over a bottle of old Madeiru, it you are uot too fashionable to driuk Tho windows of Mrs. Lee's bousu ponied B Hood of light through tho erim son silk curtains upon tho Wet and dreary looking street, while tho music heard at iutc'P'aLs told the rich were making mcr ry. Tho decorated rooms Wore.brilliant with an array of youth ami beauty, but fairest amoug^fhem ail stood the mistress of the festival; Attired in 1 a' 'robe of white crape, With no other otnamoutb than her pearls, she looked the personHi eation of joy.. ?? ?? <?< "Cousin Willie," she exclaimed, as she saw her tntvorite cousin enter the room, "you have out been bore these 'hrce days;" and then, in a lower tone, she added, "Who wbb the splendid Don whiskcraudo VSfth whom I Buw-you walk? inj: yesterday t'? Willie laid hm linger on his lip as nitalb?guro emerged from tho crowd at die eittrauce of the door. "Miss Lee, ? allow me to present to you tho most noblo Count D'Orsuy;'' The blood mounted .into Katie's cheek as t|io Count bowed low over the'hand- which he hastened to secure fbr* Lfte next quad rille. There was a mischievous sparkle in Willie's ej-erand a deep and earnest devotedtieas i"' the stranger's1 manner, which made? her feel a little uncotuforta* blc, though she knew not why. A single glayaoe sufficed to show her that the Count was attired iu a magnifi cent court suit.' With diamond buckles at the knee, and a diamond bund looping up the elegant cfutprnu'ura* which ou cumbcred his arm. After boiiio minutes she ventured to look at him more cour ngoously. He was tall- atiw exceedingly wcll >hsped; his (yes were very bright, but i he chief attraction Wiis a beautiful mouth, garnished with the most splendid inonstuche that over graced an American hall room. Katie vrns delighted. Ho darned elegantly?,, not with the stiff awk ward manner of an American, who al ways seem half {.shamed of the undigni fied part iie !s plity'ng, but with a buoy aney of stop am>*;vaee of mofiun pcrl'ift ly uurivalled: Katie was enchanted Ho a)v.kc l-'nel^h/^e.-y well ; .a slight Oerman accent alone betrayed Iiis for eign birth, and Katie did not like him the less for it. It is true she felt a little queer when shefouud herself whirl ing through the dance with an entire stranger, and hoarded lips upon her hand as he placed her iu a seat ; but this was only the freedom of foreign Man not ft. The evening passed uway like a dream, and Katie retired to her room with burn ing checks und a frame exhausted by what she deemed pleasure. She was too much excited to sleep, and when she ap peared at her lather's breakfast table, (a duty she never neglected.) it was with such a pale cheek and heavy eye that he was Seriously alarmed. ''These latoj hours will kill you, my child," said he. as he kissed her forehead. "I shall re turn at noon, and if you are still so lan guid I shall send for the Doctor." So saying he stept into his carriage and drove to his counting room, where immersed in business, he forgot Katie's checks, until the dinner hour .summoned him from his dingy little ofliec to his sti tcly mansion. As he entered the door, he recollected hei- exhausted look. "Poor child, mur mured be, "I wonder how she is?" A low musical laugh struck on his ear as the servant, opened the drawing-room door, the si>:ht of her radiant counten ance, looking more brilliant than ever, as ahe sat between cousin Willie and the Count, soon quieted his fears. The coldness which ha -.luted the uo , bib Count, formed n SirSaing contrast to j the cordial warmth with which he grasped the hand of his nephew. ' (Had to see you. William, couldn't speak to you last night, _\ou were surrounded by so many pretty girls. Hy the way, boy," drawing him aside, "who is that fellow ?" ? That is C?unt DOrsay, uncle." 'Tray, what is his business'/" "Business! why his chief business is to receive the revenues of his principality." "l'iimi p.tlity ! fudge, a few barren acres, 1 sup pose. It won't do, William, it won't do ! Kule deserves something better than a mouthful of moonshine. What the deuce did yon bring him ho..r for ? 1 don't think 1 can treat him with common civility if it were no' for your sake." ??My dear Kaf, you have all your whims gratified," said her father ono mor.UUlg about two mouths alter her ac quaintance with the Count. "Now you must, indulge one of mine. Adopt as many foreign fashious ns you please, out remember that you never, with my eon sent, m rry any other than au American. My tor tu ue has beeu made by I my own industry. And no empty titled foreign I or shall ever roap the fruits of my toils." Tho earnestness of these admonitions from a parent who hnU neVor spoke ex cept in words of unbounded tenderness, ?,-?i?i-1???-ti" ? ' 1 ? "wn v lirst led her to look into the depths oi',hor heart. She was almost terrified at her own re searches, when ahe found that she had allowed tho image of the Couut, to oc cupy its in mos*, hidden rocesses. Bitter ly did she repent her lolly- "I wish lie were an American," she sighed, "and yet, if ho was, he wouldn't be half so pleasing." How devoted his maancra arc, how I much feeling there is iu all he says and docs 1 Poor girl! she was like the 4*?%? cinated bird?she. dreaded his power, yet she could not withdraw herself from its influence. She was sitting alone otic mo ruing, brooding over her ...claneboly forebod ings, when tho object of her thoughts entered. Scatiug himself beside her, he com inoueed a conversatiou full of those graceful nothings which women love to hear. Katie was iu uo luood for gayety The Count watched her carefully and earnestly, after awhile he changed the topic to ono of deeper interest. He spoke of himself, of his business adventures, of his prcseut aud personal feelings. :>ud finally of his approaching departure for Europe. Her cheek grew pale, but suppressed the cry which rose to her lips ; the Couut gazed proudly upon her, seized her hand and clasped it closely between bis own, be poured forth the most passionate expression of, affec tion. Faultcriiig. but frankly, she stated her father's objections to her union with a stranger. 'Only tell me, Katie dan iug, that your father's prejudices ate the sole obstacle, said the Count p:tS:iuuate ly, say that you love mc, and I will bo* contented. For the love of Heaven, answer me if but by a look. Timidly the dowu ca-t eye was raised to his, and be was answered* Then she covered, hot; face with her In.ml-, an.? j burst in tears. "Katie," said the Count, i ?' ' ; i nil "You love me, those precious tears as sure mo that you love lue." "Be miue, sweet one. your father will uot be inexorable?he adores Vpu." ? ?'-' * . i ;f . .i :l "Therefore," >.:id she, ' you would have mo uiake hi . wretched for life. No 1 Count, wo must part ! You do not understand my nature?I have been de ceived in you." "You have! you have boeu deceived, iny own sweet cousin 1 covering her hand with pussiomito kisses." "You reject Count D'Orsay; will you also refuse the hand of your mad-cap cousin Jiuiuiie Karle, whoso, little wife you were ten years ago '" Katie started froiu her seat iu v.i! j surprise. "What ine.iiis all this '! Jiuiuiie Earlo ! the Count '." The sudden revulsiou of fooling over powered her, and her cousin W illie en tered the room otilj.iu time to seeker faint iway in Jimmie's arms. Now tho uuger of thu lady, when she tecovcred aud learned the trick which was practised upon her?the satisfaction of her father, and the final reconciliation of all differences '. After a few weeks a party was again assembled iu the drawing-inum. But Katiu was no longer the life of the party. Attired in bridal array, aud decked with the rieb jcWuls, which once sparkled on tho person, of the false "Count," she sat iu blushiug beauty, beside b?.r oo-u-i?. Jimmie, who now had shaven of}' his moustache and reduced hia whiskers, und looked like what he really was, a true American. "l'.ut why Ji.uuiie, did you woo me in such outlandish i .ise '(" whispered she, smiling. "Because sweet one, you vowed you would marry noue but uu outlandish wooer. Plain James Eurle would never havobeeti allowed tho opportunity of win ning t he heart Count x Jrsay so closoly besoiged." "Aye, aye, James." said tho happy lather, "if American women would value a man by the weigh; of his brut;;, rather than tho lightness of his heels., aud the strength ni his principles, rather than the elegance of his manners, we should have loss of foreign foppery, aud more of homely virtue in our country." mlitmM mmmm Tho fifteenth amendment is meeting with opposition from an unexpected cjuat tei\ Henutor i^aulsbury, of Dela- j were, yesterday astonished his colleagues by proseuting a memorial playing tor such legislation us will secure tho o voruuioot of thu Unite.d .- t.acs to the white raoo.

In talking of old times gone by thcyouuger gentlem:.n called the attention of his friends a-id ti Id u pleasant little story which shortJ^ihft^eadjwith probt hy every poor, industrious arid-striving hid. We use his own language : "Nearly hal Aal century ago, gcotiemcu. I was put upon the world to make my living.

Xcic Yo.'k Tim** Thb School Sill. Tli-- ?chool Hill before the Legislatur? of tins State, has some very good pro visions and some very objectionable. TL control of the education of the children of the State is, by the provisions of the Bill, indirectly vested iu the Governor, and the people will have no influence or powor over the teachers of their children . We1 say the power is vested in Use Govcr nor, who may turu out to be an Iufidclv or Mormon, or Fourieritc, or any aof* tf% moral or political moDster, and yet, by tho powor unconstitutionally given 19 him, be may control every single freeu school iu every County in the entire State. There is a niooarchey established by the Bill iu the training aud education of the children of the people. The citizens of n County or Township will bo obliged to submit to just such teachers , and instructors as the Governor ami his creatures may select. This is easily proved. The Stnto Constitution requires eaeh County to elect one School Com missioner to huvo charge of the public schools, nccms plainly .to intend that this most important duty shall be discharged by officers selocted by the people; but lo I this School Bill authorise* the Governor to appoint, in each County, two persons to act with the School Commissioner as a Board of Education, aud thus gives the servants of the Governor a majority iu every County Board. They arc to selcoi aud remove teachers, and do all other things iu control of the schools.?- ? This is the legislation of a body calling itself i Republican?giving to ono single man tho right to mould the minds aud morals, aud roltgtou,. perhaps, of the children of tue people. Tobacco smokers,- say.-? the London Jfesiical JUi'rror, must look to their eves. Proof* arc atcumlattmf thai WfuU frequent occurrence. ?n one of the volumes of tho "Loudon Hospital Re ports," Mr. Jonathan Hutchinson hue narrated several cases of ttmaurnsis, the histories of which go to estaliah the fact that in each case the blindness was brought on by that rapidly increasing, aud, os it appears, baneful huVnr; and in the JiW.Ym' Thum and Q?zHfa of a late date, tho same distinguished surgeon has described another striking case of '-to bacco muaurosis, eudiug in absolute blindness, induced iu eighteen mouths. Kvr.iiY person who toil., daily at any hind of labor requiring great physical or mental exettion shuulp be oxtreinly care ful to practice a regular system of ablu tion at tho close of each day's work Sometimes a person may become so com pletely exhausted as to render this any thing but an iuvitiug performance; ye? by Us omission a great deal of refresh ment which the hours of repose am djsignctl to impart is lost. Tobe cleanly is a glrtctly religious duty, and-is abso lutely essential to sound uud refreshing sluutbor; hotten the labor of keeping, one's person float! id umply repaid bj the elasticity which follows uightly ablution* before retiring.

A Good one.?A pretty rieh occur rence came off at Sandy villo, Tuseara was Comity. Ohio, the other day. Mr McFurland; thu landlord, and also * farmer, took a lot of sheep from Col. Black to keep for him: The barg i n was that if any of the sheep died. Me. Farland was to pelt or wool thorn, which meaus that he was to take the hides off or pull the wool, as he thought proper. utgUl oatuo and ' i pi the sheep died. MeFarlaud had a chunk of a boy iu his employ who was not up to ahcep talk; and ho ordered the boy to go and pelt tho sheep: He eumo back iu a couple of. hours, and MeFarlaud asked him how he had got ou; to which he demurely replied : "Oh, middling ; I got the most of them, but there w?s three 1 could not oateh." MeFarlaud went to tho sheep past uro aud discovered that the boy had :peltcd" nineteen of tho sheep to doath, and pretty thoroughly ruu down tho thrco wild ones.
