For a whole week Nunibor two bred gar Vila8, Camberwell Now Road? had been turned ''upside down and inside out," aa poor Mr. Clayton declared, ..till thoro was no rest for the solo of ono'u foot," and each morning as ho started to catch his train at Kenning ton Church with his son, ho vowed that Hover again would ho undorgo tho agonies of "a spring clean." But tho afternoon of tho last day at loiigth ar rived, and Mrs. Clayton and Wini fred, hor daughtor, with thoir ono 8orvaut, woro busy ns boes putting tho liuishiug touches lo tho household a rangements, though it must bo said that Winuio, who liad just finished her last term at boarding-school, and who was not yet fairly domesticated, was a moro ornamental than useful element. However, shu had not been idle, and ut last all was tinlsked, and rather tir ed and Hushed with her exertions, Winnio wont upstairs after a somewhat makeshift dinner willi tho bust inten tions possible of clearing out tho closet in her room. If it had boen a linon-closet, or a ehina-elosot, or a preservo closot, or Anything but tho closet it was, there ?3 no telling what Winnio might have ac complished. Hut thoso four rows of drcssos, bauging smoothly down from thoir re spectivo pogs, provod fatal. They woro dresses of her ante-boarding school period, and she had had hardly a gliuipso of them for two years or moro. Trying them on carno next, in tho natural eourso of affairs. It was an amusing process. They woro woefully out. ot' stylo, most r?f thom buttoned bel iud, nono of iii.MU readied below tho tops of hor shoes; but it was vory absorbing, and sho could hardly belies e her ears when sho heard her mother calling to her up tho stairs to como down to lea. Sho was arrayed at that moment in a white spotted muslin, which she rc membered to havo worn for tho first timo on hor fourteenth birthday. lt had a i-nsh which lied in an impos ing bow behind; it had a row of whito pearl buttons down the back; and it was several inches shorter than-sup posing lhere had been anybody to ob sorvu-would have boon strictly desir able. Winnio giggled. A sudden idea had struck hor. Shu pulled out her hair pins hastily, braided her hair ia a long tufl, nud tied it with a blue ribbon; shu had discovered a string of coral bo?d" in her drawer-sho had worn it nt tho ago of six-and put it on; and thoa sho giggled again delightedly, and wont downstairs. Uer lune plan ssas, to a certain ex tent, highly successful. lier father looked at her with exact ly tho degree of bewilderment sho had anticipated; her motlier set down tho teapot and gttfcod at her in just tho as tonished, half-reuionstraling way sho had kiioss n she would do; her brother George emitted tho explosive chucklo ?ho had expected, but thole her tri umph ended. l'or next her own vacant place, spreading lui napkin across his knee, and regarding her calmly from a pair of handsome bluo oyes, (hero sat a young man whom sho had never scon boforo. Under ordinary circumstances Win nio woidd have boon rather gratifiod than otherwise nt tho unexpected np pearunc? of a nico - looking young man. but now the blood rushed to hor faco in torrents, her breath carno in fa ps the light fairly danced boforo tor e\es. Thro was nothing to bc doue. Sho was half-way across tho loom; thoy wero all looking at her; tho precip? talo Hight which she had meditated for a wild moment was not to be thought of. Sho clutched a friendly chair to steady horsolf, darted n tiorco glanco at Goorgo, who wus studing his napkin into his mouth, nod advanced ns ma jestically BS hor limited skirts would allow. "My friend, Tom Brad loy. You'vo heard mo spoak of him, Winnie. My sister," said Goorgo from bohind his napkin. Mr. Bradley turned his bluo oyos up on the tiguro nt his side. lt had twisted its chair away from him as far as possiblo; it was bending low over its plato; lt was evidently bashful. The young man smiled paternally "Do you go to school P" ho bogan, la the patronizing t< n" young men as Bumo toward small girls. Winnie murmured something inaudi bly:-Goorgo gavo a violont sniokor, and covered lt hastily with a cough. Tom Bradioy, being a kind-heartod fellow, and unwilling to soe anybody uncomfortable, talked industriously to his timid neighbor. In tho hope of re lieving her ombarassroout, though sho waa certainly tho most dlflidont child he bad ever ?con. But ho observed and ll was an unusual thing, ho said to himself, In girls at. that interesting ago-thr.t she was decidedly pretty. "Well, we're very good frionds al ready, aren't wof" ho said encourag ingly, aa they arose from tho table. There was no responso other than a sodden swish through tho air of a brown braid tied with a blur, ribbon, and a gUmp.T of a ?hort, white skirt ?ylC? through ibo door, "f hat a peculiar halo girl tho wssl ko tad seen ber et dun womour? probably bo WOUIQ - liioru peculiar, i She had rushed upstairs and into her own room, locked the door, thrown herself on the bed, and commenced what the girls at school call a "good cry." If ho had been old. or ugly, or disa greeable-if ho had boen anything but tho soft-voiced distractingly good-look ing follow ho was-sho could have horno it with fortitude. Why had George brought him at that dreadful lime? Why had she hit u)i>n this particular day for that idiotic Performance? Why waa ho not rod haired or cross-eyed, or-something? She would not have minded it in tho loast in that caso. There was a tap at tho door, and shu hoard George's voico, not yoi quito composed, bogging ber to let him in. Mis mirth disappeared bolero tho woo-begone little person who opened tho door to him, and stood mopping her eyes. "Ob, well, now!" ho bogan, com fortingly, "you don't moan to say you're broken up like this about a lit tlo thing like that?" "A litllo thing!" cried Winnie, chok ingly. "Dh, Goorgo! what-what will he thinkP" "Never mind what hu'll think," said George, calmly. "It was a good joke, and that ought to bo enough for you." That ?lid not scorn lo cousolo Win nie. She only sobbod into ber hand kerchief thu moro wildly. "Why did you bring him?" shu mur mured, iu a hoart-brokou way. "Why didn't you bring somebody that wasn t so- so nico?" "Oh, well," he obsorved, trying to speak in an off-hand way, "don't wor ry about it! ho's-he's married!" Tho sobs ooascd. Hut, strango to say, tho face which lifted itself from tho handkerchief was not exactly ra diant. It seemed disappointed. "Marriod!" Winnio rcpenlod in au injured tone. "Good gracious!" said tho bewilder ed young man. "Don't that suit youP" "Don't be rudol" said his sister se verely. The s i ; 'hi of so much dignity, in combination with tho coral nooklaoo and I he juvenile dross, was too much for George. Ho clung to tho door In another paroxx sin of mirth. '.You'vo got to como down, you know," he gasped, wiping his eyes. "Put ou something decent, and como down and paralyzo him. What du you carcP" Winnio wavered. After all, what did slio careP Ho was married! Half au hour later. Tom bradley, leaning against the piano in the draw ing-room, and listening to George's rondoring of tho latest popular air, was roused by tho sound of a footstep ou tho ti,?carpeted Hool, und startled by tho appearance of a graceful and extremely protty young holy in a blue dress. Ho was astonished at tho familial smile she gavo him; ho was astonished at tho way in which Goorgo whirled about ou thu piano-stool, and grinned, without introducing thom; and then, as ho lookod moro closely at tho prclt) apparition, ho became aware of tin startling truth. Winnie's composure, which had bo gun to dosort ncr, roturnod in ful forco, as tho young man dropper his eyes and studied tho baro Hour it evident confusion. She sank on tho sofa calmly, ar ranged tho folds of hor dross bocom ingly, and bogged her brother, sweet ly to continue Ids song. "I'll let him know I don't care," sin soul to horsolf triumphantly. "Mar ried-tho horrid thing!" "Aro you as fond of music as of dolls?" tho young man ventured breaking tho silence at last. "Almost," said Winnio, with i laugh. And tho conversation, with tin small start drifted on gayly. It struck her, as thoy talked on that Mr. bradley, for a married mau was-woll-not woll-boliavcu. Ho kept his eyos fixed on her in ai admiring way; thu tono of his remark -half bantering, wholly compHmonta ry-was highly improper undor th circumstances. Ho had edged nearer and nearer t hor, until thoro was no apprcciabl space botweon them. Winnie felt that soniothing must b dono. Sha wont to tho piano hast il) and played a few meaningless note With desperate speod. Mr. bradley followed promptly, an lee lied over her With au ail' of pl > found enjoy nient. "Doos Mrs. bradley playP" sal Winnio, frigidly. "Mrs. liradloy?" hor companion ri posted, smiling inquiringly, and Icu ing rather lower. "Your wife I " said Winnio, sovon "Oh, but I haven't ono!" said tli young man cheerfully. Winnio looked up at him quickly and immediately lookod down again. "I haven't ono," Mr. bradley ri nested softly; "but I've been thinkln for tho last twenty minutes that 1' Uko one immensely, if-" Tho recollection that sho had know Mr. bradley barely an hour and a ha caused Winnio to turn away from bli hastily and oomraonce a noisy polka. but when sho got up to hor rooi that night, at a rather luto hour, an sank on tho edge of the bed, starla with unseeing eyes at the white mu lin, Wing where sho had left it in heaj n the floor, the thought did rv vaguely through her mind that pe haps she bad helped, or hindored, hi mother for tho last time. And Tom Bradley was of tho san opinion. W. S. Conant, au inmate of tho Co cord, N. H., Asylum, was made v! lently insane, it is behoved, by roinoi beeauso he dosertod from the army tho war.

A Museogoo, 1. T., correspondent cf tho New (.hie .ir; 'linn$. Democrat write-;: Th" Creek Indians of iii.: Hickory Ground town or neighborhood held their annual "IJ.MI -ki01" ?asl week. This is commonly t: dieil "bask," and is thooccasion when all of the Indians of a certain section,Under a I?mal chief, meet for the purpose of tilkl'ig their ..pOssan", ur blue- drink. Thu ground is selected by the town chief near some running stream, ami a brush siled is constructed iii the form ot a cross, ono end to the north, one to thu south and thu others to thu cast and west. Tho chief occupies tho wost end and his subordinate officers tho ends to tho other points of tho compass. After ovcrything is got in roadiuoss, a com mit tee is appointed to go out and bring in four round logs about four foot long, which aro placou with ceremony in tho center of tho arbor, tho outor onds (minting to tho four cardinal points, mt all touching together in the co? ter. Firo is produced by friction, which is then placed in the center of this cross. It is estimated with a slow lire these logs will last four days, tho usual length of tho busk. After tito black think is mudo tho women, who are fasliug, dance around tho tiro, and from 12 o'clock lo tho middle of the afternoon tako draughts of thc medicine, which is a powerful emetic, and also wash their faces, bauds, and fuel with it. When tho women all get through tho mun join them anti thuy DAXOE ALI. MU I IT, tho women wearing terrapin shells lilied willi gravel, anti tied together with buckskin thongs, fastened to Iheir legs or ankles, willoh rattle anti aid in keeping time in ibo dance. They sing their peculiar songs, interspersed with yells by the men, and it is wonderful the aniouul of labor that is endured during these exercises. Tho Women are tastefully ami brilliantly dressed ami decorated with their ll nest clothes, ribbons, and ornaments. The next day the men go through pretty much the same ceremonies, and tako their med icine. After this, on tho third day, the wo men bring in thu children, who aro matlc to drink. They aro washed in it, scratched on the arms and legs with a scratcher of many points,so the med icine can the sooner penetrate. Theso scratches are usually made of garfish teeth, or in the absence ol' those they are made by sticking Humorous pins through a f out her. After each class get through willi their linties of drink ing and dancing they arc permitted to go to tut; stream ami bathe, when they can reit rn to thu camp amt partake of food anti preparo for tho dance at night. During all these ceremonies tic, women and children occupy ono camp and the men the other. On the fourth day thu ashes aro all cleaned up,and naen participant sprink les smut! ot it un kiimself. TUK riKK IS BBB KW KD, and then begins the final dance. Tho men all eome in with sticks,in tho omis of which are inserted four white feath ers. With these they koop timo in all sorts of motion during thu dance. All this is the ceremony that has to bo gone through with before any of tho members are allowed to eat groen corn, and is, properly speaking, thu "groou corn dance." In some towns of old standing those ceremonies are kept up eight days with much formality and strictness. In Tookabatchu town Ibero now oxist brass plates that huvo boon handed down from ono generation to another, probably for hundreds of yours. Thoy aro now in possession of old Captain Tookabatchu Hajo, ono of tho Quest* looking old Indians 1 havo yet mut,and is said to be one of the best meu throughout tho Territory. Theso meet ings aro not altogether for tho purpose ot laking medicine, but nre productive of much good. Thechiofs of theso claus tako occasion to call together all the young men and explain to thom the Jaws of tho country, and oxhort thom to bo obedient to these laws, to main tain friendship among themsolves and neighbors, and all return thanks for tho blessing of tho past your, and ask tho Groat Spirit to continue thom for tho year to come.

Tho rapidity of lils hands was so groat that their movomonts could not bo analyzed.

Tho struggling, fighting crowds would swarm about him, thrusting in their halves and fonding oil* tho press about 'hem.

There is a story relatod of him that a man onco shoved in a pilo of pennies to him for a ticket. "Yon don't cora? that," said tho "Lightning Changor," glanoing at the {ide. and showoring out tickets to other lands. "Tako that away, will youP" shout ed tho changer, sending tho pilo in a scattered shower among tho crowd; "thoro's only forty-nino couta in that pilo!"-Ingleside.

Among til" frequenters of a woll known Parisian restaurant was a cor tain methodical personage, who dined thoro every day, and always at tho samo table, which the proprietor, with duo regard for so regular a eustomor, especially reserved for him. On co, howovor, by somo .mistake of tho waiter, ho found on arriving his usual placo already occupied by a stranger; and, inwardly fretting at thu disap pointment, entered into conversation with tho mistress of thu oslablislimunt, who presided at the counter, and awaited tho intruder's departure as patiently as ho could. Tho lattor seemed in no hurry, for, aftur consult ing tho bill of faro, ho ordered anoth er dish and a fresh bottle of wine, see ing which the habitue, who would rather have gone without his dinner than taken any place but his own, re solved at all hasards to get rid of the unweleomu guest, and addressing thu dame du comptoir in a low tone, lu? quirud if sho knew who the individual at his table was. "Not in tho loast," she repliod; 'this is tho lirst time hu has been hero*" 'And ought to bo thu last," he sig nificantly remarkod, "if you knew as I do." "Why, who is he?" "Tho executioner of Versailles!" "Mou Dion!'' exclaimed tho terrified dame du comptoir; and, calling hor husband, imparted to him thu informa tion she had just received. "Mako out his bill," hu snid.^and counter-order what he has asked for. Ito must not slay beru, or wu shall lose evury custoiuor we have." Whereupon, armed with tho docu ment in quoslion, he presently crossed tho room to whore tho stranger was silting, and Inq ired if ho were satis fied with his diuner. "Pretty well," was thc answer, 'but tho service might bo quicker. Why don't they bring what I ordered?" "Monsieur," replied the truUeur, as suming au air of importance, "I atu compelled to say that your preseuce here is undesirable; and that 1 must request you to leave my house as soon as possible, and on no account to sot foot in it again." "What on earth do you moan?" asked his astonished guest. "You must be perfectly aware," continued the other, "that your being seen here is most prejudicial to me, and-" "Speak plainly, man!" impatiently interrupted the stranger. "1 insist t n being told what you imagine mo to bo." "Var bleu I you know as well as I do. Tho executioner of Versailles!" "Ah! and pray who is your authori ty for this?" "That goutleman," replied tho pro prietor ot the restaurant, pointing to the habitue at the counter, who was beginning to feel uneasy as to the re sult of lils "joko. " "Indeed!" said the stranger, raising his voice so as lo bo distinctly heard by every ono present; "that gentleman has informed you that I nm the execu tioner of Versailles. Well, he ought to know, for two years ago it was my painful duty to brand him!" With these words, uttered ill a tono of complete luditturonoo, hu left thu amount of reckoning on thu table, leaving Ibo other mystifier to dino os ho might. - Tcm?>lc Liar. An Anecdote of tho Barefoot Ac IrOMN. I heard rather an amusing story tho other day about Miss Kstollo Clayton, who has just sailed for a short trip abroad. A talented clergyman of New \ork was dining at tho house of one of thu most devout and oau of the wealthiest ladius of his congregation. Ile seemed to tako groat pleasure in entertaining the handsome young lady who sat next lo him, and was evident ly much impressed with her charms of faco ami her conversational powers, i Tho amusement question carno up at tho dinner, and the yoting clergyman mounted a favorito hobby, and began to speak with warmth and fooling about tho immorality of tho stage. Ho had committed himself beyond re demption beforo ho noticed that his re mark was received with somo degree of coolness by tho company, but tho face of his neighbor only wore an amusing smile. "Do you often go to tho thoatro?" She inquired. "No, indeed," was thc energetic re ply, "it is enough for mo to see tho posters on tho fences, and tho photo graphs in the shoo windows. Why, only two days ago 1 saw tho picture of an actress who appears on the stago absolutely barefoot. For my part. I am not surprised at tho low social standing of theatrical peoplu, and I do not woudor that they are never seen in tho house i of respectable people." A chill seemed to fall upon tho com pany, bul tho young lady's faco woro an amusing smile. "Let us talk of something elso," said tho hostess, and by that time tho young elorgyman nady foll that ho had put his foot in it Thu party broke up, and as he was walking homo in company with anoth er of the guests, he asked, "What was tho name of that young lady who sat noxt to mo at tablo? 1 did not catch it." "Miss Kstollo Clayton," was tho re ply. "ls teile Clayton," roplied the young divine, "it soems to mo I tuivo hoard that name beforo.
