Nowise eftst down by this fail ure, hp resolved to try i\'?rain. lie called himself porsoveririg; his friends called him obstinate; and his enemies said that ho had mistaken his vocation, and ought to have been a house painter. Our ficro had his fair share of eon coit, and, believing in himself, laughed nt his friencU and dispised his enemies. confessed that as fur as outward appoaranco went. Alfred llart looked every inch an artist?that is, the popular idea of one?with ids lone hair, soft hat and velvet cout. Disgusted with tho bad taste of tho ?'Academy," Alfred Hart betook him solf to tho soaside, after writing a furi ous articlo on favoritism to the nev -? panor, which was not insorted. Somo day, Alfred Hurt felt, he would bo appreciated; but, in tho meantime, ho would havo probably starved, had it not been for a maiden aunt who allow ed him so much a month in order that he might pursue his studies. Ho had boon pursuing his studies a very long timo?being now, when our story opens, tliirty-sovon. Alfred Hart, on arriving nt the sea side, wont immediately in search of a lodging, his artistic paraphernalia un der his arm. At tho first house ho presented him solf he had a vory unploascnt rebuff*. "You'ro an artist! No, thank you!" said tho landlady, "I couldn't take you In." "Why notP" asked our hero. "Becauso," said tho landlady, put ting her arms akimbo, 4Tvo heard that artists don't pay." "Yotf aro very insulting, madam!" crid Alfrod Hart, indignantly. "Who in ado such a soandnlous libel on our honorablo profession P" "I'm a plain-spoken woman," went on tho landlady, "and I speak out straight. My sister oneo lot her rooms to an artist." "And tho:resultP" "Was that ho novor paid! I'd much rathor take a pork-butchor than an ar tist, and that's tho truth!" "Thoro is a black shoop in oYory Jlook," observed Alfred Hart. "I can assure you that I altaaystoay my way." ?XI that> the oaso," said tho sharp Koasido landlady, ?'you'll havo no ob jootion to paying in advenoo." "Nono at all!" said Alfred grandly, Aifrod grandly, *?>romitti Htnod. o apartmo mF ? mp soo thorn," "This way, sir," observod Mrs. Law, A llttlo moro olvllly. \ "Mind tho stops, the passago is,rathor dark." Tho rooms salted Alfred Hart vory woll, and ho took thom thero and tlion. "Iioing an artist," said Mrs. Law, as sho stood iu the parlor by the window, "you will onjoy tho viow." Tho view consisted of a long lino of mud, for tho ^idd had run out. "Yos! I .'.shall bo vory comfortablo horo, no doubt," said Alfred, sinking into an arm-chair that hftd a brokon spring. "I supposo you have boon horo too long to onjoy tho prospoct." Mrs. Law eonfossod that sho didn't sco much in it horself, as sho rattlod tho "two jveoks in advance" in hor pookot. *? * When alono, whon Mrs. Law had loft tho apartment, Alfred took tho wrapper from tho rojoctod picture, and gar,od upon it. Ho was looking at it still whon Mrs. Law entorod tho room bringing in tho toa things. Now, Mrs. J^aw was a woman of tho world, and understood peonie s woaknossos. "Why; what a'-beautiful picturo!" sho orlod, lifting up hor hands in af footod admiration. "Did you draw that, sir?" "Yes!" said Alfrod, with a pardona blo glow of pride. "I painted that pioturo." "It's jdsC lovely H orid Mrs. Law. "Mrs. Law,'?,orlod tho gratified ar tist, *you aro a woman of sound dis cornmontl You havo a soul! You oan approciato ovti Bhako hands with mo, madam;" Mrs. Lfiw readily aoquloscod; tho artist looking vefry happy indeed. "Neve* saw srich a daub in my llfo," obsorvod Mrs. Law, whon In tho pass ago: "but it don't do no harm to flat ter lodgors up. I'll olmrgo him somo thlng for .extras.'? . That night Alfrod Hart hatl happy d roams, duadto tho hatttnoss of his Bod. Ho droajMrattiat he was 1'roAldont of tho Roy&TAoaabmy, and tliat ho would allow no pictures thoro but his own.

A row o'xonraoialBts made somo un complimentary remarks about Alfred Ifart; but ho, being mod to thom, took disdainful on his way about cfcmo upon To, not knowing that Agbty Wbs seated on a ongngod in taking some out of her sand shoo, nn<T, in so revealing a charming ankle, our hfro was, as wo know, a rtrtistio taste, and, therefore, upOtt tho girl with admiring oyos, ,_ng that ho wotild much like to it hor In that vory attitude, hat afternoon, at he was having his ioiV tho same young lady passed his m know herf" asked Alfrod r, looking at his landlady who him out a glass of afo. lady who hss Just pass tho ^onng lady who how observant you Law, going to tho ...at's Ml,, Daffodil tr Is something in tho ^Indeed, thoy say. ir.

"If I win hor," thought Alfred. ??I'll put such handsome frames to mv nic turos." J 1 Delay is always dangerous. Our he ro did not allow the grass to r row un 'cot. No, he knew better. I hat very evening, dressed in his best, ho showed himself at tho parlor of "1 ho Pirate and Admiral." John Nixon was soated at the end of the table, with a long pipe in his mouth ?evidently he thought a great deal of himself. Hut our hero did not llud it so oasy ns ho thought it would be to make John Nixon s acquaintance. He wai a grumpy, surly fellow, and baldly answered Alfred when he spoke. After thr?!o evenings spent in vainly trying to make friends, Alfred Hart give it up in despair. However, chance did for our hero what scheming could not do. One afternoon Miss Daffodil, happening to fail asleep, was caught by tho tide, plie awoke to find herself on a little is land of .-and surrounded bv water. Now. the probability is that had there not boon a younsr nian present, Miss Daffodil would have rushed through the water, which was not <juite two feet in depth; but a gentle man being in tho way, she guvo vent to a little shriek, saving: "Save me! Save me!" Pon<l?n,:ul wiis no other than Albert Hart, and without tho least hesi tation, after casting a glance at the familiar red stocking*?for Miss Daffo dil had gathered her skirts round her? plunged into the water like tho hero ho was. "I will save you!" he cried. You are brave, noble!1' sho cried and the fair Daflbdil throw her arms round his neck. Once more he plunged through tho rising water, and they were soon on dry land. . J "I am saved!" said tho girl, still en twining hor arms round Alfred's neck. ?fair flower as sho was. "How can I over thank you sufllciently for vour gallant conduct?" "Don't mention it," said Alfrod half cliokod by the girl's fair arms. "It's a pleasure to risk one's life for one so beautiful." Now it must be confessed that Miss Daffodil was not what might be called beautiful, though a fino-looKing girl of about fivc-and-twcnty summers. Iho next day, and the next, and af tor that the}' met on the beach, walking: sulo by side, tho pleasant sound of tho restless waters in their ears. She told him everything about hor self, for Miss Daffodil was vory frunk how sho had money in hor own rijrht, and how her father did not wish her to marry, because he would loose it. At length, one lovely cvoning, our hero asked the all-important question. "Daflody, dearest Daffodil!" he said, "I havo loved yon " "Oh, Alfred!" hiding hor blushing face in her hands. "I havo lovod you," went on Alfred, "over sinco I first saw thoso yellow sand-boots and ro 1 stockings." "You wicked Alfred!" said Miss Daf fodil, pinching him* "Darling, will you bo minoP" Of course sho said yes, aud tho artist Was rendered tho happiest; of iqon, looking forward to tho time*wlion J* oould touch her money. y. ? On mpotincr her on tho following avoning, Alfred suggested that thoy should olopc. * "Where top" asked Daflodil. A,V1'1,1 t:\k4?Jou "Mint's," replied Alfrod. "Wo will remain with hor un til our marriage. " "Will She like mo?" askod Daffodil. "Kvoryono who soos you must liko (roil, said Alfred. He knew only too woll that his aunt would bo glad to hoar that ho hud imuithhI a fortune. "Everybody don't seo mo with your oyos," romarkod Daffodil. "Confound his insolonco!" cried a loud voice, and turning round, Alfrod 8Icevos fat,K>1' ,Uckln? ?P his ?'I->id y?n address such language to mo, sirP asked Alfred trying to look fiereo but trembling in his shoos. "Yes, sir!" "Then I think I'd bott?r go. Fare well, doarost!" looking at Daffodil, "but not forovor." And, with thoso parting words, he gothcc 'at',or am' dnughtor to ft was not forovor. Ho met Daffodil on tho following night, and, taking hor to tho station, took tho train for Lon don. Alfrod M aunt received his futuro brido with onthusinsm, thinking that through hor she would bo rollovod of liornophow's koep. ihroo Weeks afterwards thoy wero marrlod, an?l the artist felt that his triumph was comploto.

A lady who had soon ^nuch of the world wu asked on one occasion why f?lain girl* ofton get married sooner baa h&ndsomo ones; to which ah? re plied that it was owing mainly to the tact of tho plain girls, and tho vanity and want of tact on tho part of mon. "How do you mako that outf" aakod a gentleman. ^ ??In this way," answerod tho lady. ??Tho plain girls flatter tho mon, and so ploaso tholr vanity; whilo tho hand sotno ones wait to bo flattered by tho men, who haven't tho tact to do it." Thoro havo boon cases, however, in which tho situation presented hero has been reversed, and plain, oven ugly, mon have succeeded in making them selves so agreeable to young ladies as to becomo their accepted suitors, lloro is a ease in point. Whon Sheridan first mot his second wife, who was then a Miss Ogle, years of dissipation had sadly disfigured his once handsomo feat uros, and only his brilliant eyes were left to redeem a noso and cheeks too purplo in hue for beauty. "What a fright!" exclaimed Miss Ogle, loud onough for him to hear. Instoad of be ing annoyed by tho romark, Sheridan at onco engaged her in conversation, put forth all his powers of fascination, and resolved to muko her not only re verse her opinion, but actually fall in love with him. At thoir second moot ing she thought him ugly, but certain ly fascinating. A weeTc or two after wards, ho had so far succeeded in his design that sho declared that she could not live without him. Iler father re fused his consent unless Sheridan could settle ?15,000 upon her, and in his usual miraculous way ho found tho money. Those who havo read Georgo Eliot's "Felix Ilolt" will remember how Felix, though himself a rough, unpolished workman, gained the love of a refined and delicately reared young lady, not by flattering, or even attempting to please and gratify her, but by chiding, depreciating, and almost despising her because sho read Byron, and knew nothing of the heavy mental pabulum on which he himself was woi i to feeiL She was at first dreadfully vexed and oflcndod; but bv-and-by she came to believe that Felix had a grand moral ideal, beside which her own was frivo lous and insignificant; and striving to emulate his exalted motives and views of life, she made him her beau ideal, with, of course, the usual result. In theory or in novel this is no doubt all very line, but in everyday life the mode of procedure adopted by Felix Holt would be, to say tho least, de cidedly risky, and would very probab ly end disastrously. It is always safer to risk a little Mattery. Hnppy Iti tho wooIiir That Ik not lonjf a-<lolutf. says tho old counlet; but a modern counselor thinks it necessary to qualify the adage bv the advice: "Never mar ry a girl unless you have known her throo days, and at a picnic." In this, as in other matters, it is always desira ble to hit the hanpy medium. Marrying in naste is certainly worse than a too protracted courtship; though tho latter has its dangers, too, for something may occur at any time to break oil the affair altogether, and prevent what might have been a happy union. It may always be concluded there is something wrong if Matilda is obliged to say to her Theodore: "Don't sit so far away from me, dear, and turn your back on 1110 so; people will think wo'ro married." A friend of Robert Hall, tho famous English preaehor, once askod him re garding a lady of their acquaintance: "Will sho make a good wife for me?" "Well," replied Mr. Hall, "lean hard ly say?I never lived with her!" Hero Mr. Hall touched tho roal test of hap piness in married life. It is 0110 thing to see ladios on "dress" occasions and whomovery oflort is being mado to i jrff^Lthom; it Is quito another thing amid tho varlod and often ^k itir<tum*tuoo0ay??' ..bou?nbid life. Vlowlnjc nn Ioebot*(c< At 12 o'clock wo wontbolow, and had just got through dinner when tho eook put his head down through tho seuttlo and told us to come 011 dock and seo tho flnost sight wo had ever seen. "Where away, cook?" asked t lie first man who went up. "On tho larboard bow." And there lay floating in tho ocean, several miles off, an immense, irregular mass, its top and points cov ered with snow, and its con tor a deep indigo color. This was an ic.oborg, 0110 of tho largest size, as ono of our men saitl, who had boon in tho Northefti Ocean. As far as tho eyo could reach tho Boa in every direction was of a deep bluo color, the waves running high and fresh and sparkling in tho light; and in tho midst lay this immenso mountain island, its cavltlcs and valleys thrown into deon shade, and its points and pin nacles glittering in the sun. All hands wero soon on dock looking at it, and admiring in various ways its beauty nnd grandeur, but no description ean give any idoa of the strangonoss, splen dor and real sublimity of tho sight. Its great si/.o, for it must havo been from two to three miles in oircumferonco and Rovoral hundred foot in height; its slow motion, as its baso roso and sank in tho water, and its high points noddod against tho elouds, tho dashing of tho wavos upon it, whloh, broaking high with foam, covored its baso with a whlto crest; tho thundoring sound of tho cracking of tho mass, and tho broaking ana tumbling down of hugo plccos, togothor with fta noarnoss of ap proach, whloh addod a slight olomont of foar, all combinod to givo It a char acter of truo sublimity. Tho main l>ody of the mass was, as I havo said,of an indigo oolor; its baso was crusted with frozen foam, and, as it grew thin and transparent toward tho edges and top, Its color shaded off from a doop bluo to tho whiteness of snow, it soomed to bo drifting slowly toward the north, so that, wo kept away and avoid ed It. It was lu sight all the afternoon; and, as wo got to leeward of it the wind died away, so that wo lay to quito noar it for the greater part of tho night. Unfortunately, there was 110 moon, out it was a clear night, and wo could plainly mark tho long, regular heaving of tho stupendous mass as its odgos moved slowly against the stars. Sev eral tlinos in our watch loud cracks wero hoard, which sounded as though they must havo run through tho whole length of the Iceberg, and several pieces fell down with a thundering crash, plunging heavily into tho sea.

He had appealed for damages, and, failing to receive any, was embittered against the ro.ul, and took this means of wreaking ven geance. Ilis son assisted him. The populace were driven to fury over hi diabolical deed and to-day at daybreak took hifti from jail and handed him. The wretch confessed the deed before he was hanged and exonerated his son.
