Had the reader been in Paris on this 1 winter day, and gone to t he Church St. Sulpiee, he would have seen t he ' poor erippic Pierre gazing around in uTto*W*^TuTTeny~cbl<l. and the 1 snow, which had fallen all night, was 1 still covering the cold earth with its , shroud. Pierre, clothed in rags, limps painfully along, stopping e\ery now and then to breathe upon his purple lingers,or swing his arms to infuse some warmth in his chilled body. In :i st mm' emit r:i<? i.? ?i>.. well-dressed, wellfed Jacques, who meets liini with :i look of scorn. I "Have the women not come yet?" asked J act i lies, in the tone of a man speaking to his inferior. "No, not yet: mother and Mademoiselle Louise are husy elsewhere, no , doubt," replied l'ierre, while he gazed ' 011 his comfortably elad brother, and wondered why they, sons of one father, should he in* such ditrerent eircuin- , stances. "They ought to he here," said .lac- ( ques, the handsome, impatiently. "The services will soon he over, and ' they will iniss the charitable idiots." 1 "They will he here in good lime," ^ said the cripple, sis if to excuse their , ^ absence. "Von need nut worrj about , t hem." "It will be none too soon if they come now," was the angry exclama- ' Lion, as the loving son went to seek some shelter from t he storm, where he could wait until the coming ol his mother, from whom he expected to : get money enough to pay for his night \scarousal at the nearest cabaret. l'ierre moved away, as though expecting a blow (which was not uncom- ' mon) from his brother, lie seemed to be trying to make up his mind to say something to his brother, and judging from t he length of t iine it took him, he did not expect a favorable answer to his prayer. At last he went toward Jacques, and in a slow, hesitat ing way, said: < "Jacques. 1 have got a favor to ask of you. "if it is money, 1 haven't got any," answered the eider brother, moving away. "No no, ' answered Pierre quickly: "it is not money but. look here. Jacques, when you are align with me. 1 curse me, heat me.it you want to, but do not call me cripple not not when "Jacques looked at liis brolher, as if doubting whether he bad beard aright. | and tbcn, as lie saw the supplicai injr 1 look on the deformed boy's face, he I broke out into a coarse Lugh. t "Indeed!" ho sneered. "We must speak to monsieur respectfully: take t olf your hats. I suppose. Why, we 1 will dress you up in silk and velvet, t You would like to wear gloves and carry a sword, I suppose." The piot ure which his coarse taunts I had called up was so comical to his f mind that lie was obliged tnstopspcak- ' ititf and indulge in another hearty t laugh. t An expression of pain passed over Pierre's lace, lie had hoped tha 1 his I brother would grant t his simple favor, r and Ids sneering words cut the poor I fellow to t lie heart. a ".Iacqucs!" he said, in a tone of sad- s iless and reproach. a "So it hurts your feelings to he call- c ed cripple, does it ?" cool inued Jacques in a voice that hurt his brother more v than his blows would. "Well, look at v yourself what you are?" :i "I am a poor, deformed cripple," an- o swered Pierre, as be brushed away the s rising tear. "And to whom do i owe ! it? Who. when I was but an infant, h heat nie, and broke and twisted my t limbs Itecausc I refused to steal a coat a ? i? r I <l ... ifc. . or htm?" * "You Ho' it was a tldak." lntofhlpt- k Jacques, fiercely. t.1 "That Is always your way,"' cbritih- o led t he cripple, "to make soinc one o Iso steal for you. Tliat was what a dreed poor Marianne " n "Marianne!" exclaimed .laeques, as t ie raised Ids hand to strike the one who t hus brought up tlie past. "Don't f< rou dare to mention that ungrateful < dot's name to me again.

"I don't van; lo hear anything more about ? icr. 1 have found another, who is bet* fi er looking and more useful. As for si ,*ou, as you don't want to l>e called t ripple any more " And Jacques hesitated a moment, as I f he wore searching his brain for some lame, while Pierre, thinking that his h not l or had relented, and was al?out u o answer his prayer, exclaimed anx- ii ousiy: v "Well?" "I'll rechristian you Cupid." v Again a look of intense pain passed o >ver Pierre's face, us his brother's f augli rang out loud and shrill. l?o as you like," he said, wearily, as n f resigning himself to all the insults e lis brother might see lit to heap upon s dm. fi "Now 1 eoinc to think of it," said li Iacques, contemptuously, "it is only A lien Louise aiiout that* you object to e >e ealled cripple; perhaps " and os he was no longer able to control himself, t ie burst out into bis fiendish laughter s igain, at some t hought which had en- t lered his wicked brain. Then, chuck- t ling to himself, tie said, shaking Jus nead in a mocking way: "Ah, that u would be too good." "What do yo i mean?" asked Pierre, o not understanding bis brot her's mirth, i: "You are not so stupid after all," t laughed .laeques. "She is blind, and loesn't know the difference between a 1 linndsomc man like me and a miscra- I ?le abortion like you." and again his " mirth resulted in laugliter, while he | .'xclaiined: "You're in love -in love t wit Ii a blind girl." 1< " I?" said Pierre, in surprise, as if hardly understanding what his brother | had said, and at the same time look- t ing down upon Ii is misshapen form, f 1? hi love?"

And liiere was upon Pierre's face, as lie spoke of the blind girl, a light which is rarely seen, and then only when it is lit by a soul pure and noble, 1 Jacques looked upon his brother in t surprise. He saw in that pale fate t ?onicthing that he had never seen liefore, and could hardly repress his as- t Lonishnient. v "How the devil did you tind that all nit? 1 don't know or care anything c ihout her goodness," he said, after a 1 short pause. "Hush for all t hat and s is to her lieauty, I know that her eyes ire more use to her now than if she s onId see with them." "Yes -yes. she is blind," said Pierre , ?idlv.

Like a voice from licaven did tlie *' notes, welling over with despair,speak 1 to t he deformed lad. tilling his heart 1 with peace and love. 1 'Jacques,'* lie said softly, "you are older than 1. you're straight and i it long, and I must sulunit to you: hut j when I see t lie use you make of your , strength, I am satisfied with my ugly shape and miserable weakness." \nd as he finished speaking, lie lurned in t he direct ion from which the 1 sound proceeded, and stood in anxious t .wpoetancy. await ing tiie approach of ji Llie blind girl, who had so entirely $ changed l he course of his life. h CIIAI'TKU XIV, THE l'lltVKIt OK I.AW.

The Washington Post says It is a question for serious consideration whether the deatli of a fool should l?e mourned or applauded by enlightened society. At Cold .Springs llarbor, N. v., the other night a young follow named Volkman volunteered to let a patent medicine fakir shoot an apple olT his head, a la William Tell, and was neatly killed at the third tire. A troupe of wandering vagabonds was visiting Colli Springs Harbor exploiting the sale of some cure-all prophylactic, and one of the features was the apple shooting act. The marksman always called for volunteers, none of his gang having the slightest anxiety to assume the part, and the night of the 2">th instant young Volkman responded. He was a barber, eighteen years of age, and the support of a small but needy family, but his profession hud familiarized him with deadly weapons, and lie cheerfully assumed tile role of "Jimmy." As we have already said, ho was killed at the third lire,and now the question arises: Shall we rejoice or weep over the consummation? of course, unthinking humanitarians will weep, and there is much to warrant them in weeping. On the surface, a bright young life has been snulTed out. He was only eighteen. He was a barber. An aged grandmother and other relatives were interested in his advancement, and foiul parents lived hi Germany. There was no telling what he might or might not achieve. The future was all liefore him, and yet lie was sacrificed to a mountebank's vanity and the vicious appetite of a credulous and gaping crowd. That is one aspect of the incident, but there is another. We must consider the possibilities of a youth capable of such mad folly as young Volkman gave way to. it is proper to inquire whether lie could over have become a good and useful citizen. The most dangerous member of society is a fool. Nobody but a fool would have put an apple on his head and stood there fur a common takir to sin Hit it olT. Volkman may have been possessed of all the public and domestic virtues, lie may have been an excellent barber, with every prospect of rising in his profession. No doubt he enjoyed the confidence and good will of the most respectable citizens <?f Cold Springs Harbor. Hut was it safe?for lie might have mar lied and multiplied to perpetuate hi in? A man capable of doing as lie did must lie regarded as a menace. Careless ot his own life, why might he not have become careless of tlie lives of others? It is not as if he were a bricklayer or a tailor. Persons engaged in those occupations may build a smoky chimney or a pair of trousers that ha# at the knee, but a fool barber may shave of a mole or cut a throat. It is an open question: Shall the fool be killed, or shall he lie permitted to increase and multiply? Columbia's Steamboat I.inc. The Columbia State says since the organization of the new Columbia and (leorgotown Steamboat company the directors and otlicers of the company have not been idle though the public nas ucarn very little of what has been going on toward bringing about the desired opening of river navigation. As a matter of fact the lirst installment of the stock has already been called in, and the president of the company, Col. John C. Haskell, has been at the North for some days getting the proper bids for the furnishing of the boats with which the line will he established. As soon as he returns with these figures the order for the boats will lie placed and will provide for prompt delivery. The company proposes to pureiiasc only lirstclass boats. ' >ne of the directors Thursday said that the lioard hoped to open the Hue by the lirst of January. but it would certainly lie in operation by the tirst day of February, it is very likely that the opening of the river loal line will lie made the occasion for quite a popular celebration and jollilication.and tlie lirst trip diiWIi I In' ri\i>r will nrAh-ilvlu !?.? >? > >.1.. by <iuite .1 party of the live business men who have endeavored to reduce Columbia's freight rates and make Columbia what she should be the wholesale centre of this part of the country.
