One ttay his mother
sa Tid:"To-e French
people have left. T.1" old extol of
St. MarysChurch ha- cngaged to keep
the garden inl order until th-ir return.
Believe me, my son. this is best for
you."
He went forth into the quiet moon
light, timidly. as if :bout to do some
wrong, and looked over the latticed
gate into the garden.
The idyl was phrved1 out. Deathly
stillness lay over all. llow cold seemed
the silvery moonlight upon the pat11
Light waves of perfuie from the
rosebeds were wafte~I over to him:
mortally weary seeimed the piash of the
fountain: cool breeVze rustled throug.h
the tree-tops. and as In :i dream he
murmured tie refrain of tii- little poem
that had been so dear to the absent one.
As if within that garden
Of roses, white and red.
She stin for me were waiting,
My darling, long years dead."
"Adieu, dear little Hortense! I shall
never see you again," he murmured,
softly.
It was indeed a final separation.
They never met again. No tidings
passed from one to the other. Arnim]
had scarce entered the university when
histparents died, thus severing every
link with the old home. Serious student
years absorbed him. His powerffl in
.clination toward medicine had made
~him a pnysieian despite his father's
rrotest.
He had scarce graduated when he I
'made the acquaintance of a we:dthy
Russian, ill with inilamniation of the
lungs. This happened as he was about
to settle down in his native town with i
a iew of building up a practice there.
He had the good fortune to cure this
foreigner who, grateful for his recov
ery, and touched by the decided fond
ness of his half-grown son for the 1
young doctor. invited him to share
their southern travels as family phy- ,
sician and German tutor. In this way I
Arnim saw a great deal of the world.
Finally, at the solicitation of his new
friends, he settled in Russia. Every- <
where he had taken with him the lace t
handkerchief of the charming Hor- I
tense. After the lapse of thirty years 1
when, as a busy, successful physician I
he had lived a life far removed from
that youthful idyl, he still cherished <
it as a precious memento.
His heart remained strangely un
touched by love. Not that he had
striven against the charm of womi
an's beauty or gone out of the
way of that spell old as creation:
itself. Still no woman had awak-t
ened in him more than a palssingZ inter-i
est. When he pondered over this un
nsuaareality, "IL have no time for love." 1
was the refrain of all his thoughts, I
"and without love there is no happiness
in marriage."
A woman had always presided over
*his bachelor household. Ivan clung to <
him with canine Iidelity. and years
passed without his ner a the swiftness J
of their flight. Little by little there
had awakened in his heart a longing
for his native land, for the qjuiet of that:
quaint old town, for the rustle of Grer
man forests. These longings deepened
grniH. they made him ill. He learned
though correspondence that the vine- 1
-wreathed house stood vacant and wasi
for sale. He purchased it gladly, andi
settled down within those four walls--4
to him the most beautiful possession in
the whole world.
SThe littleyla.e was unchanged. He
fIoundhis cousin already there. With the
sanmi he had sent her. she had arranged
every thing to his liking.
Marianne expressed some surprise at
sight of the tall cousin she had not met
for twelve years, and whom she had
imagined younger. Ivan's aspect filled
her with horror. She wanted him sub
'mitted at once to the shears of the hair
dresser~, but the shaggy Russian scouted
this idea, and his master only laughed
~at it.
~With strange sensibility the doctor
'nwwandered through his native town.
Whole streets had been laid out, mod-1
'ern houses had risen, a railway station
stood jnst outside the gates. But for
.the vine-wreathed house, to which so
many memories clung, he would again
:have wandered forth. Here a sweet
melancholy spell detained him.
,The linden was vet standing-the
-tree beneath whose shadow lie had read
."Kathrine von Heilbron" with his
pupil. Roses and lilies, syringas and
earnations, whose perfumes hiad per
'vaded the air of university lecture
rooms and greeted him from the
orange gardens of Lorrento-all were
here.
?Every tree and rock on his own do
main was known to him; but outside he1
felt himself a stranger. Familiar faces
had vtanishied. The elderly peop)le of
his boyhood were in their graves-thme
young had usurped their p~lace-s. A
-Casino" had taLken the pla1ce of the
nine-pin alley at the Red Lion. The
hills were dotted with the summer
villas of rich city people. Not far
from the vine-wreathed house stood
a charming Swiss villa, inhabited by
the family of a wealthy merchant of
the neare-st sea-pt rt town.
To the' great sutrprise of iis house
keeper. the Russian doctor showed nto
immediate inclination to resume his
oractice. He declared that lie must
confine his social objligationxs to the
receiving and returning of calls, lear- I
ing dinner and ev-ening parties and
afxternioonl coffees to Marianne. The
writing of a long-contemplated medi
eal work would engross him for sonie
time to, come. Until that was enided
hie must abjure general socty.
Marianne gave free vent to her dis
appointment. She had hoped for a
:riumphal social career by her cousin's
tie who had also honed that he

The Cotton' Movement.
The New York Financial Chronicle, in
its review of the movement of the cotton
crop for the week ending Septembor 2,
says that the total receipts reached 89,
309 bales, against 19,270 bales last week,
9,649 bales the previous wok, en7 ~,27(
1,499 bales three weeks since; making
the total receipts since Stptember 1,
1887, 15,519 bales. against 11,71:. bales
for the same period of 1 SSG, !Ihowing an
increase since September 1, 1"87, of
3,756 bales.
The exports for the week reach a tote
of 32,235 bales, of which 30,470 were to
Great Britain, - to France, and 1,76-5
to the rest of the continent.
The total visible supply of cotton, as
made up by cable and telegraph, for the
week is as follows:
Total of Great Britain stoPk 57:,Mo
bales, total of Continental stocks :31,200
bales-making a total of Europcar stocks
of 924,200 bales. The total visible su
ply for the world is 1,218..",67 bales; of
this number 15,467 are American and
603,200 East Indian, &c.
The imports into Continental ports
for the week have been 30,000 bales.
There is an increase in the cotton in
sight of 121,370 bales as compared with
the same date of 1886, and an increase
of 80,425 bales as compared with the
corresponding date of 1885.
The receipts at interior towns for the
week have been 25,637 b~ales. The old
interior stocks have decrc ased during the
week 900 bales, and were, Friday nivht,
19,142 bales less than at the same pcriod
last year.
The receipts from the plantations.
being the actual movement, not includ
ing the overland receipts nor Southern
consumption, of cotton that reached the
market through the outports for the
past week were 39,846 bales.
Of future speculation, the Financial
Chronicle says: Except for an irregular
episode on Tuesday, connected with the
closing up of August contracts, the ten
dency of prices of cotton f >r future de
livery at this market has been upward
for the week under review. Unfa.rable
crop accounts, have been asserted and
reiterated with much pertinacity, and the
very small stocks in American market.:,
together with the full figures at which
prices and transactions in cotton on the
spot have been maintained, gave credence
to a report that an effort was being made
to "corner" September contracts. To
day an irregular opening was followed
by an advance on the repetition of unfa
vorable crop accounts, but a decline was
caused by the free crop movement. Cot
ton on the spot has been quiet. Offer
ings were on a very limited scale, except
of low grades, and odds and ends, for
which there was very little demand.
Quotations were advanced 1-16c. on
Monday and ic. Thursday, with more
doing for home consumption. The mar
ket F riday closed quiet, at 10c. for mid
dling uplands.
A Pastor Charged with Voodooisn
The members of the Mount Zion Baptist
church of Washington have brought uniqute
charges against their pastor, arraigning hini
for diffusing superstition and believing in
voodooism. Deacon Preston was passing
by the church the other night when he saw
Pastor Dillard enter the builing. Won
dering what mission brought the pastor to
the church at such an unseemly hour. the
deacon slipped into the church, and hiding
behind the organ began a watch. Pastor
Dillard lighted a candle and walked slowly
(Iowa the aisle and around the altar. Every
few steps Pastor Dillard was seen to scatter
something fine and white in front and
around him. Deacon Preston left his perch
and crept softly up the aisle until he cameu
to some of the stuff Dillard had sprinkled
around. He found out that it was sah,.
and slid under a pew. When he peeped
from his hiding place the pastor had stuck
the candle on the altar and was devoutly
piring over the pages of the good book.
Preston arose, and proceeding to the altar,
asked Parson Dillard why he had sprinkled
salt about the church. H~e raised both his
hands and said, "Ihush, Brother Preston.
don't disturb the solemnity of this occasion.
I have sprinkled salt :'round the churich Zo
keep out the devil. You .iust go :way and
let me alone to fight saran." Deacon,.
Preston rushed aroundi and1 told th memn
hers of the congregation how he had cematt
Dillard scattering salt along the ai.sles and
around the altar. The Parson was~ 5um
moned to answer the chairgc preferred by
the Deacon, but refused to do so. Pastor
Dillard says he will fight the congregation.
He has outstanding notes of the church 10:
$4000, and vows he will sell the building
if he is bounced. The members are trymng
to raise the money to take up the notes.
