The Cost of a Train. At the time when the first open court of law was established in Russin, u lady, drsved with the utmost ele gance, was walking on the Moscow promenade, leaning upon her hus band's iirtn, and letting the long train oi her rich d<*css sweep th*j dust and dii t of the strc?t. A young ollieer, coining hastily from ti iside street, was so careless as to catch one of his spurs in the lady's train, and in an instant a great piece was tern out of the costly hut frail material of the dress. 'I Jieg a thousand pardons, mad am,' said thu eftieeri with a p ? itu bow, :\ti?l tluui was about passing on, when he was detained by itit: lady's bus hauii. 'Von have insulted my wife;' 'Kolbing was farther froin iny in ten I ions. sir.

'You shall lint'escape so,' said tiie lady, with her head thrown back iv a spirited way. ' I'o-day is the tir l time i have worn this dress, an 1 i cost two hundred rubles, which you must make good. 'iM v dear madam, I heg you not to dein n me. I am obliged to go on duly at once. As t< the two hundred rubles?I really cannot help the lehgtli ol your dre.;s, yet I beg your pardon for not having bo.h m ire cautious.'., 'You shall not stir,sir. That yoii are obliged to eo on duty is nothing to us. My wife is right; the dress must he made good.' The officer's face grew pale. 'You force me to break through the rules of t he service, and Ishall n ceive punishment.' 'Pay the two buudreil rubles and you are free.'

'Oh! any body could sav all that; hut we'll see if it's true; we'll find out if you have ir.ithing but your pay I declare my seit not satisfied with your excuses, and I demand my money, persisted the lady, in th ? b ird voice of a thoroughly unfeeling woniail. ''flint is true?you are r ght,' t!?e husband added, dutifully supporting her. 'By good luck we have the open court now just, in session. Go with us before the judge and lie will decide the matter ' All further protestation on the ollice 's part that he was pool* that he was expected on duty, did not he'p matlets. Out of respect, lor his uni form, and to avoid an open scene, he had to go with them to liievourl room, when the gullerv >vas deusetv packe.i wit h a eorw I ??: people; Alii i waiting Home time, the lady had leave to hr ng her c ?.n;j':?:ii*. 'WI a xi t have you to answer lthis complaint ?' said the judge, turning to the officer, who seemed em ha rra -scd and hall iu despair 'On the whole, very litilo. As the Inlciu'as of the hour, and being r?: quired on duty, compelled in;; to hurry, 1 did not notice the lady's train, which was dragging on the ground. I caught one of my spur.-, in it, and had the misfortune lo tear 111*? dress. Madame would not receive my excuse, but perhaps she might lind herself more disposed to forgive ness, when I again declare, so help me (iod, that I committed this awk ward blunder without any mischiev ous intention, and 1 earnestly beg that she will pardon mo.' A 'murmur ran through the gallery evidently from the people taking sides with life defendant, and against long trainapkin general, and the lady in particular. The j?dg4 culled to order, and ask ed, 'Art* you satisfied with the de fendnnt's explanation ? 'Not at all sali died. I demand two hundred rubles in payment for my turn dress.' 'Defendant, will you pay this sum !' ?I woli'd have paid it long before this had I been in a position to do so. Unfortunately 1 a n poor. My pay as an officer is all I luve to live on.' 'You hear, cot. p'.iinant, that the defendun-t is not aide to pay the sum you demand of him. Du you still wish the ennudaint to stand ?'

Do you slid insist upon your com plaint ?' 'I s j i 11 insi.-t lipon i'.' The course the affair was taking seemed to have become painful to the lady's husband.

'What an insane demand, said the lady's husband. 'My wife, cannot undress herself here.' 'I have nothing to do with you, sir, iu this mutter, but only with the compluinuut. lie so good, mad a me, us to give rac the dress i in mediately. I am in a p,reat hurry; my affairs are urgent, and,I cannot wait a moment longer.' The pleasure of the audience at the cxrenge bl the lady increased with every, word, until it was hard to enforce any approach to quiet, so that either paity'couM be heard. 'Do not jest any more about it. I will ti urry nnd send you the dres.< as soon ay ^possible.' '1 am lint jesting.

Mary. 1 could I wish never to see you togelher again. Dear Harry, that's going too far. .Don't be disagreeable; lets talk of something else As Uncle John says I low's business? and she looked arch ly in his face. Harry didn't smile. Well said Mrs Morton, turning away, and lapping lii-r loot nervously; I don't see how I can break off with In r. Harry, for a whim of yours ? b rides I've protii scd lo go there this very eveni ig. Mr. M>'i;oii milde no reply, and in a f< w in incuts was on his way lo the city. .Mar; stood belli ml the curtain, and looked aller hin, as be went down ihc street towards the point where the omnibus was in be got. There was an unconifortithle stifling sensation in bei throat and something very like a fear g ittering in her eye. Harry was vexed, she was sure of that, lie had gone tifij lor the first time since their marriage, without the ufibction ale "gooddiyo" that was usual with him, even w hen they parted but for an hour or two. And so she wandered, restless and unhappy into her bed chamher. It was quite n little gem. There statuettes, and pictures, and vases? all gifts from him either before or j hi nee their marriage; each one had a history of its own?some tender asso ciation connected with Harry. There was a bouquet?still fresh and fra grant?that he had purchased on his way home the day before, to gratify her passion for flowers. There was a choice edi' ion of poems they were reading together the night b dote, with Mary's name written on the leaf in Harry's own hand. Turn where she would, some proof of his devotion nitvt her eye. Hut Mis. May ! She was fo smart and .-atrical ! She would make so much sport of her, for h-'ing "ruled" s> by Harry! Hadn't she told her; all the men were tyrants ?" Ami this was Harry's first attempt to govern her. No, no?it would jT do lor her to yield. So tlic pretty evening dress was taken out; the tiiinmiiigs readjusted and romoddelled, and "all the little et netern.* of her toilet decided. Yes, she would go?she had quite ma lo. up her mind to that. Then she opened her jewel I rase: a little note fell at her feet. She knew the contents ve ry well. It was from Harry?slipped slyly into her hau I on her birthday, with that pretty bracelet. It couldn't do any harm to read it again. It was very lover like for a year old hus band, but she liked it. Dear Harry ! And she folded it hark, and sat flown, more unhappy than ever?with her hands crossed in her lap, ami her mind in a most pitiable state of n solution Perhaps, after all, Harry was right about Mis. May; and if he wasn't, one hairof his head was worth more to her than all the women in the world. He had never said one un kind woid to her?never! He had anticipated every wi?h, He had been so at l? nl ive and solicitous when she was i|l. How could she. grieve him ? Lov-e+r.jijiueretl!. The jVr.ei.ty robe was folded up and puc away--the jewels returned to their case?and with a light h iti", .Mary sat down to a*'ait her husband':- return. 'I he lanps were not lit in the parlor when Harry euno up the street. She had gone, then ! alter all he had said ! He passed .-lowly through the hall, entered the dar'% and deserted room, and threw himself on the sofa with a heavy sigh! lie was not angry?but lo- was grieved and disappointed, 'flu; first doubt that creeps over th? mind of the affection of one we love is so very pain;uI !

Why was the first of September like the transgression of Adam'' Heran? e it was (lie beginning of the Fall. Judge Liudeinhii, of Cincinnati, sentenced a boy to two years' imprison iiieiit for stealing a newspaper f<otn a doorstep. The lad's mot her was there by made insane, ami the magistrate is the object oi public indignation. "Don't trouble yourself to fit retch your mouth any wider," said a den list lo Iiis patient, "1 intend to stand outside to draw your tooth." 1 Oh, 1 wanted to show yon what 1 had for breakfast," was the rouly reply; Married Politeness. _ ??>?;-j?\k 'Will you ?' asked a pleasant voice. And the husband aswered: 'Yes\ my, clear with pleasure.' It was quietly but heartily said; the lone, the manner, the look, were per fectly natural and very affectionate. We thought: How pleasant tho | courteous reply ! How gratifying it must be to the wife ! Many husbands of ten yea's' experience arc ready enough with the courtesies of polite ness to the young ladies of their ac quaintance, while they spi.ik with abruptness to tho wife, and do many rude little things without couside. ing them worth an apology. Tho stranger whom the}' may have seen but yester day, is listened Lo with deference, and although the subject may not be one of the plcasantcst nature, with a ready smile; while the poor wife, if she re laW.s u domestic grievance, is snub b d ur listened to with ill-concealed impatience. Oil ! how wrong this is ? all wrong. Docs she urge some request ? 'Oil ! don't bother tu-2,' cries hor gracious lord and master. Does sho ask for necessary funds for Susy's shoes or Tommy's hat? 'Scents to mo you're always want ingmoney!' is the handsome retort. Is any little extra demanded by his masculine appetite, it is ordered, not requested : 'Look here, I want yon to do so an I so-just sec that it's done;'and off marches Mr. Boor, with a bow and a smile of gentlemanly polish for every casual noq.iaiiitaucj h* may chance to recognize. When wo meet with such thought I ess n ess and coarseness, our thoughts revert to the kind voice and gentle manner of the friend who said : 'Yes, my dear, with pleasure.' 'I begyo?r pardon' comes as readily to his Ii]*?, ~\\d!Fn^;~nnry^ _ disconcerted her as it would in tne prese nce of the most fashionable stick lers for etiquette; 'i bis is because ho is e. thorough gentleman, who thinks his wife in all things entitled lo pro : cedence. He loves her bast. Why should he hesitate to show it? not in sickly maud in attentions, but in pro fieri u / her pleasure, honoring her in public as well as in private. He i knows her worth. Why should h I hesitate to attest it? 'And her hits band lie praised her,' saith holy writ; n<it by fulsome adulation, not by push ing her charms into notice, bat by speaking as opportunity occurs, in many ways of her virtues. Though words seem little things, and .-light attention nl inns' valueless, yet, depend upon it they keep the flame bright, especially if they are natural. The children grow up in a better moral atmosphere and loam to respect their parents as they see them respecting each other. Many a boy la^cs advantage of the mother to loves, because he sees often the rude hess ol his father. Insensibly ho I gathers to his bosom the same habits j ami the thoughts and feelings they i engender and in his turn becomes tho petty tyrant. Only his mother! Why should be thank her? Father never docs. Thus the home becomes the scat of disorder nnd tin happiness. Only forstrangers are kind words ex I ressed, and byprocritcs go out from the hearthstones fully prepared to vender justice, benevolence and polito ness to every one and any one but th >se who have the jtistest claims.
