She hold a prayer-book in her hand, and, turning to the communion service, pointed to the commandment: "Remem? ber that thon keep holy the Sabbath day, Six days shalt thoa labor and do all that thon host to do; bot the seventh is the Sabbath of the Lord thy ?od. In it, eic, etc." After reading it attentively, her com panion remarked: "Bat I do not proposo to work-I pro? pose to play cards." "Bat that is desecrating the sanctity of the day," she said emphatically. "Yon lose sight of the first clause, "Remem her that thou keep holy," and the last also, "Wherefore, the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it." "I bow in reverence to the sacred ora? cles," said Mr. Von Oppenheim. "I daro say, you are right, but good Hea? ven ! what a dreary day Sunday must be to you-so different from what it has always been to me. All my life, I have beon accustomed to look forward to it as a day of pleasure-a day, whose sweet hours of leisure and recreation compen aated for the weekly*, laborious routine. This was especially so nt home. We used to have grand concerts every Sun day-delicious music, and delightful halls and amusements of every descrip? tion. Somo of the most obarming re miniscences I possess of my own Vater' lind, aro the recollections which still haunt mo, of the pleasant Sabbaths I have spent in Vienna, with my Unols Gottfried. We would go to the Prater, ?in immense park, abounding in beau ti ?uI drives and picturesque walks, where U the beauty and fashion of Vienna yrould congregate, to promenade under the flowering trees, to sit beneath the ?lindy groves and to listen to the sweet sounds discoursed by a magnificent or? chestra, out in the open air." "How splendid!" exclaimed Cornelia, rapturously. "lt must bo enchanting," said Juliet, "but does it not seem wrong to you. Mr. Von Oppenheim, to devote the holy Sab? bath to such a puppet show of life. Surely, it is a divine institution, not given to ns for mere amusement. I think wo should only enjoy such worldly di? versions on the week days and devote the sacred boars of the Lord's day to more improving pursuits, striving ever to attain n holier, higher aim in life, in order to secure for ourselves a brighter hope for eternity." The young preacher warmed with her mibjeot-she began timidly, but by de? grees improved in confidence ns the ser? mon advanced. , "Truly, a model discourse," sneered Cornelia, "when do you propose taking orders?" Mr. Von Oppenheim Bhot a glance at her, expressive of anything but appro? bation. Joliet's sensitivo ? feelings were bart; she was almost in tears, which not seeing, or pretending not to see, Cornelia continued to discuss, in terms of cutting sarcasm, what Bhe was pleased to oall "Juliet's religious oaut." 4 'I despise to see anybody sin like the rest of the world all tho week and turu saint on Sunday." "Don't mind her talk," said Mr. Von Oppenheim, turning kindly to Juliet. "I would risk your chance for Heaven any day, before I would- hers. No doubt, you aro right, in what you say-you have Scripture on your side, at all events. .Moreover, I never combat conscientious scruples, and my own theory of life may not bo unimpeachable, so if you think it is wrong, I would not, on any account, peraunde yon to play. " "Well, for goodness sake," interrupt? ed Budolph, who, during the progress of this conversation, having performed all the tricks he knew, and exhausted even this proliflo sonroe of amusement, I waa oow waiting i ta patiently for tho when yon began about home, we would never get to playing to-day." "I om rather prolix on that subject, eh?" and Mr. Yon Oppenheim rose, re laotantly from the sofa, and seated him? self at tho card table. ^ ?JW? ore- ready. Cornelia," ht ed; it will<haye to be a game of I Iree handed euchre." Bat Cornelia demurred, wbou it came to the pinch. Her father was a strict obnrchman. "Perhaps she had better no* play-her father might find it oat .?dj^d^spteased-" "jy?aii yon, tamed sanctimonious, too?" exolaimed Mr. "Voa Oppeaheim, in a contemptuous tone. "Incredible! I shall look myself to be nilli o ted the next on??f Hernie a flue field (or the exercise of a missionary spirit, Who will under toke my conversion?" "You are not an infidel, I hope," said Juliet, in a low, trembling tono. "Infidel 1 God forbid 1 Bat I see no harm in innooont amusements." "Skeptical!" whispered Cornelia across the room-the'word, though not intend? ed for the professor's ears, reached them, Qisrertheless. He shook bis head at "That is pestilent heresy, Miss Juliet io not believe her;" and then, his lip a lightly cnrling> he asked '<! shonht ?kw to know, Cornelia; who is the greatest skeptio, you or myself. There is nothing under heaven or earth whioh escapes your mockery and deri lion. If there is anything sacred from your ridioulc, I hove never discovered it yet" .*You are unjust," returned CorUelia, in a somewhat penitential voice; "I an not 8*hkst^^ou.rep*s^e?t^'? "Uncle Karl," pleaded Rudolph, "i pott are going to play with me, please dc it. I am so tired waiting. I migh uavo read ever so many pages in m] book by this time.'" "Well, Rudolph, since these you nj ladies deny ns the felicity of their hel{ ind conn ton nuco in our laudable effort it diversion, I will e'en play a few game }f oribbage with you, at ten cents pe ypnjbe; that is high enough for your for kane," To- Juliet's infinite horror, Rudolpl Trow forth the little red pocket-book, RI familiar to her sight, and so intimate! connected with ber memory of tliei ivalk and conversation together, the firs lay of itp ? arrival. He opened it, am proceeded, to draw forth some silvei fdr. Von Oppenheim was industrious! learohing in his varions pockets. "I haven't my pocket-book, Rudolpl not a oent of money about me. What' to be done, my little man?" "I'll lend you some," said Rudolph. "Of coarse yea will," laughed Mi Von Oppenheim; "and will be mod?rai enough only to charge compound inti rest. I know yea, you consummate littl usurer. At the rate you go on, you wi Boon reduce yoar grand-mother, an myself too, to bankruptcy. Howeve count me oat a little for present demand Since it is my .fate to be fleeced, I'll sui mit gracefully." Juliet could eadare this scene 1 longer. There was her dear Rudolp looking so like au innocent ohorub, wi' his pale little faoe and fair flowing bair there he was, seated at the card-tab] actually gambling on the blessed Sa bath day! It should not beso, if s! could help it. She would teach him tl wickedness of engaging in such trivii unholy pursuits. She left her seat ai glided np to Rudolph, put her ai around bis neck, and whispered son thing in bis ear. "xas." said Rudolph, in an abstraot way; "I'll come presently." "But now, Rudolph-this very rx ment. Please come, dear Rudolph." "Ye-es; but don't you see I'm ph ing, Juliet. Ii yon distract my ott? tion, Uncle Karl will win all my moue] Unole Karl did not appear to be gi vi mach of his attention to the game. 1 was looking intently at Juliet, H tamed hi r hoad aside, to avoid 1 penetrating glance,, whioh looked as if wished to search her inmost soul, stantly divining her motives, be resist the temptation to tense ber, which, fear, he would not have resisted in G nelia's case, and put an end to her d tress by throwing up his cards, telli Rudolph "to go with her, for he did i feel in a humor to play anyhow." Jul felt, exactly as if she had recovered I dolph'from a lion's den, and oonducl him in triumph to her sofa. Howev she stopped long enough at the ?able utter a very sweetly modulated "thc you," to Mr. Voa Oppenheim- "He obliging," she thought; while Mr. \ Oppenheim himself was thinking t the eloquent "thank you" was by means ill remuneration for tho 1 game. Cornelia had resumed her noi and, at this stage of affairs, began read aload for the benefit of all prese "Do cease that tautological twadi Cornelia," interrupted Mr. Von Opp helm, in his nsual straightforward m ner; "it is disgusting; and if you allow me to give you a small pieci friendly advice, I beg yon to go up st and disrobe yourself of that outre mc ing gown. It is absolutely hideous, never saw anything whioh so disoor with my perception of the fitness things. Yon would better uso exp tion, too, for it is nearly time for dm to be served." This was certainly not the chi vak language of a Quixote. Whatever < nelia might have thought or felt at address, she preserved her temper milled. She never made a display that to Mr. Voa Oppenheim-thougl don't say what she aid to others. J haps Cornelia imagined Mr. Von Op] heirn wanted to get rid of her preset Whatever she thought, she merely e coolly turning over a leaf: "There will be plenty of time." She continued so serene and com : * -lit, Juliet felt convinoed that she been too much engrossed in the cont ftgn?&Jno^ words; but she afterwards observed * hideous gown" was discarded from < nelia's wardrobe altogether/ Professor Von Oppenheim, b< strolling around the room again, sti ing the patterns on the carnot, paused at ono of the windows, poshed back the crimson drapery. "Saints and angels!" he ejaculo "if there isn't Thed!" and, with swiftness of an arrow, he shot from room, out into the flower garden, 1 doors slamming with a loud crash i him. Juliet, Cornelia and Rudolph rai to the wiadow. They reached ! station in time to see Mr. Von Op heirn olear half the steps at a leap, down the walk, bare-headed, and tl his arms around the gentleman who approaching. The scene did not impress two of :- . . --^---^ spectators at the window as snything extraordinary-they bad often witnessed a similar sight; but Juliet never bad, and she went off in perfect' convulsions of laughter. "Jbu.be name ol wnader/'seid Corne Ha; ?SrhaHs tte m?tr?M* What* there so ludicrous?" x This only produced- stronger convul? sions, at the end of whioh Juliet managed to articulate, incoherently: "tt is the very funniest sight I ever beheld." "What?" asked Rudolph. "What is so funny?" "Why, to soo two great grown men hog and kia? in that style," waa Juliet's reply, Wiping her eyes. "Pshaw!" said Rudolph. "Is that all?" Rudolph was disappointed; for he had been imploring Juliet to stop laughing and speak, thinking there would be a chance to exercise his own risibles. But he could see nothing ludicrous in a sight so familiar to him. "You are aa simple as an Arcadian peasent, Juliet," said Cornelia, scorn? fully. "Do you not know all Europeans embrace, except the English?" Miss Thurlow had traveled considera? bly, and prided herself on her knowledge of men and thiugs. "And, pray, who is Thed., if I may be allowed to ask?" said Juliet. "Have you never heard Mr. Von Op? penheim speak of Thed. V Juliet shook her head. "Well, that certainly is ostohisbing. He talks of him continually. By the way, you ought to know the gentleman. He is a Carolinian, and has been tc Orkney-for I heard him mention the place." "But who is he? What's his name?* "His namo is Lyle-Theodore Lyle." "I know tho family well, from hear ssy," said Juliet. "Mr. Lylo is a cousin german of my friend, Eugenia Raw leigh." "Yes-tho same," answered Miss Thur low; "Mr. Von Oppenheim and himsol! aro devoted friends. You nover knew anything like it in the whole annals o friendship." "Orestes aud Pylados cannot bo men tioued in tho samo breath," laughed Mr Von Oppenheim, entering the room am having heard Cornolia's remark. "But what have you doue with him?' asked Cornel is. "He's putting on dry clothes, to bi sure, said Mr. Von Oppenheim; "no being exactly in u plight to be inspecte) by the fair sex. He was the ueares approach to a drowned rat I ever saw." Juliet laughed again, peal after peal fit after tit. until she was ashamed o herself. "What has so excited your risibles? asked the young professor, in astonish meut. Juliet could not utter a syllable. "I'll tell you," volunteered Alaste Rudolph. "She is laughing because yo and Mr. Lyle hugged and kissed enc other. She says it is the very funniet sight she over saw in her life." CHAPTER IX.-MKS. THURLOW HAS FEW FRIENDS TO TEA. Mr. Lyle remained in Ashburn only few days. He was going abroad, whet ho hud been educated, and where he no I resided, only paying occasional visits t America. Having stopped on bis jon ney to say good-bye to his friend, Pr? lessor Von Oppenheim, and not ?ndic him at the University, Mr. Lyle had fo lowed him to Ashburn. Juliet thong] him, beyond donbt, the mostfasoinstic person she had ever met. He was not i tall as Mr. Von Oppenheim, bat his ligar though slight, was of graceful and oome proportions. He had regular featur and black hair and eyes, the latter of singularly brilliant and animated chu acter. On one occasiou, whee the git were discussing the peculiar merits of tl two friends, Juliet expressed it as h opinion "that Mr. Lyle possessed de? dedly tho advantage in looks, if hu w not such a piece of superhuman exc< lenee in respect to cleverness and accoi plishments." These words only made Cornelia lauf in sublimo derision, and she assured J liet 4'she hadn't the taste of a kitten." "The two men are no more oompai ble, either in appearance or in telle? than the sun and moon. And, enpassam coutiuued Miss Thurlow, "that ann ai moon is a very apt idea. Mr. Lyle is t moon, if you like, but Mr. Von Oppe heirn is the more brilliant luminary." "Is it not intensely amusing to wat their behavior to each other?" asked J liet, who seemed to derive unusual ph sure from the discussion. "Why is it amusing?" "Because they remind me of t1 lovers, they are both so demonstrative a so fiery. If I wore Mademoiselle I shov be jealous of Mr. Lyle. I believe A Von Oppenheim loves him the better tho two." I "I have no donbt of it, myself," : I plied Cornelia. "Karl Von Oppenbo ia no moro in love with Mademoise Schomberg than be is with the Queen the Sandwich Islands." The last evening of Mr. Lyle's stay Ashburn, Mrs. Thurlow had a few friei to tea-in other words, she had one her inimitable social parties, graced all the fashion and elite of the place, was a glorious occasion for Cornelia, w had the qualities to appreciate every tbi fashionable and brilliant, and none i less so for Juliet. The young girl 1 attended very few pax-ties in her life, o made sure they must be adorable. ? had a new India muslin for the occasi trimmed elaborately with fleecy olot of rioh, soft lace; white flowers glean in her bair, and elegant pearls decora her fair neck and arms. "How wondrously lovely 1" remarl .Slr. Lyle, who standing beside his frie hsd his gsze fixed intently on Juli "She ia the perfect embodiment of angel." "Who?" questioned the young p fessor, with noparalelled hypocrisy. "Miss Clayburn, of course," ru tu vi MT, Lyle. "It seems to mo, abo y figure, a model of unaffected grao? i faultless proportions, to the pure cc plosion most divinely fair, ana the vi< oyo . ? "Oa-/.ollo-like, large, and dark, and uhy.' "What do you think of her. Von < pon hoi ru?" "Her appearance, you menu?" qr tioned the professor. "Yes." "I agree with you in thinking her expressibly beautiful, but bad you \ pounded the same question to me, first time I over saw her, in the wordi your favorito poet, I would have plied ''Faultily faultless, icily regular, upland null, Doad perfection, no more." Mademoiselle Schomberg was enliv ing tho company with soino of her light?ul musi?. Juliet stood nt on?.tod of the piano; at her side. Ha^/BWwtt, who wa? terning over, ?orhArfna^ecti?n, one of Mr.>.

"Eugenia told me, not long since, oho was the only woman of her acquaintance she would bc willing for mo to marry." "Ah?" interrogated his friend, for the first time withdrawing his eyes from tho subject of these remarks, and bringing them to bear on Mr. Lyle, "lt would be au eligible match for both parties, no doubt." i "Look at that young dandy.. Babbitt," j indignantly exclaimed Mr. Lyle. "I be I lieve in my soul, he is tnlkiug love to ?her." ! His friend laughed. "Well, Thed., we cannot prevent it, as I cun see. I suppose Babbitt is privi? leged to make love to her, if he likes." I "Did you ever see anybody blush as she does?" contiuued Mr. Lyle. "That, in her case, is no sigu of his talking nonsense," remarked Mr, Von Oppenheim. "No-I believe you are right there. I havo observed, how that frequent blush? ing, under any exciting or pleasing emo? tion, is a characteristic of her face. Did you ever notice tho peculiarity of thc blush? It does not crimson tho whole face in a red dye, but it is adolicate pick flushing, like the fairy tinting of n shell, or the petals of a rose, settling in thc velvet cheeks and breathing light and freshness from every lineament." "Upon my word," said the professor, "you havo been a remarkably close ob? server, duriug the last few days, and de scribe what you havo seen with accurate and graphic power. You should writo a book, Thed., ?uni muk o Miss Clay bun the heroine. " "I should like infinitely better to mak? her a wife," replied Thed. But Mademoiselle's song was finished and tho bnud striking np a quadrille, tin gentlemen separated, going in quest o their partners.

The greater tho proportion of this Soluble Phosphate winch any Fortilifc^r contains, the leas tho quantity required per acre, and consequently the cheapest Fertilizer is that containing the lushest per ceutago of Soluble Phosphate. Impressed with these truths, the Sulphuric Acid and Supcr-l'hosphato Company have erected at Charleston, the llrst extensive Acid Chambers South of Baltimore, and are able W ofli-r to planters thu highest per cent age of Soluble Phosphate of Limo known in any market. Their Fertilizers are otb red under two forms: gi. Kliwim, No. 1-PUttE SOLUBLE PHOSPHATE, guaranteed to contain 24 per cont, ot Dissolved Hone Phosphate of Limo, SOO per ton, 10 per cent, discount for cash. ii. BUWAII, No. a-PERUVIAN SUPER-PHOSPHATE, guaranteed to contain 20 percent, of Dissolved Bone Phosphate:, and H to 3 per cent, of Ammonia, with a sufficient addition of Peruvian Guano to adapt it to all Crops, $70 per ton, H> per cent, discount for cash. WE ALSO OVPKR: DISSOLVED BONE, of high grade, for planters ?ir manufacturera, who may desire to mix into any other compost, and wo suggest that this is the best and cheapest method for manu? facturers to transport the Sulphuric Acid contained in the mixture. Will lie sold at iixed rate for each percentage. WM. C. IIKE AS CO.. Agenta, Jan 1 ?tino No. l l Adger's Wharf, Charleston, S. C.
