In this situation they were, at different times during the next two hours, interrupted by flve congressmen, tliree seiiAtore; a cabinet officer and a judge of the supreme bench—each of whom was quickly but courteously dismissed. Popular senti ment, however, broke out in tho hall. ‘ Well, I’m blanked, but this gets me.” (The speaker was a territorial delegate.) “At this time o’ life, too, lookin’ over pic tures w r ith a gal young enough to be his grandchild.” (This from a venerable official, since suspected of various erotic irregular ities.) “She don’t handsome any.” (The honorable member from Dakota.) “This accounts for his protracted silence during the sessions.” (A serious colleague from the son^or’aown state.) .“Oh, blank®; all!” (Omnes.) - Four went home to tell their wives.

Tho—tr—the—er—ex pressions you have quoted arc not common to Boston, but emanate, I believe, from tho west.” Carmen De Haro contritely buried every thing but her black eyes in her shawl. “No one,” ho continued, more gently, sit ting down again, “has the right to forecast from my i>ast what I intend to do in tho fu ture, or designate tho means I may choose to serve the principles I bold or the party I rep resent Those are my functions.

[Copyrighted, 1880, by Houghton, Mifflin A Co., and published by arrangement with them.] CHAPTER XIV. WHAT CULTURE DID FOR IT HERE was at this > time i?i the senate of the United States j an eminent and re- ! spected gentleman, scholarly, orderly, honorable, and rad ical—the lit repi-e- sentative of a scholarly, orderly, honorable and rad ical commonwealth. For many years he had held his trust with conscious rectitude, and a slight depreciation of other forms of merit; and for os many years had been as regularly returned to his seat by his constituency with equally con scious rectitude in themselves and an equal skepthjjsm regarding others. Removed by his nature beyond the reach of certain tem- tadons, and by circumstances beyond even tho know le Ige of other*, his social uud i»oliti- cal integrity was spotless. An orator and practical debater, hb refined tastes kept him from pei-souality, and the public recognition of the complete unselfishness of his motives and the magnitude of hb dogmas protected him from scurrility. His principle* had never been appealed to by a •bribe; he had rarely been approached by an emotion. A man of polished taste in art and litera ture, and possessing the moans to gratify*it, hb luxurious home was filled with treasures he had himself collected and f u ther enhanced by the stamp of his appreciation. Hb library bod not only the elegance of adornment that his wealth could bring and hb taste approve, but a certain refined negligence of habitual use and the easy disorder of the artbt’s work shop. All this was quickly noted by a young girl who stood on its threshold at tho close of a dull January day. The card that hud been brought to the sen ator boro the name of “Carmen de Haro;” and modestly in the right hand comer, in cl- moit microscopic script, tho further descri;>- tion of herself us “Artist.” Perhaps the pic turesqueness of the name and its historic sug gestion caught the scholar's task*, for when to hb request, through bis servant, that she would bo kind enough to state her business, she replied as frankly that her busiaesa Was personal to himself, he directed that she should be uduqttod. Then intrenching himself be hind hb library table, overlooking a bastion of books and a glacis of pamphlets and papers, and throwing Juto his forehead and eyes an expression of utter disqualification for any thing but the business before him, he calmly awaited the Intrud r. bhe came, and for an instant stood, hesitat ingly, framing herself as a picture in the doer. Mrs. llopkinson was right—she had “no style,” unless an original and half foreign quaintue:a could be called so. There was a desperate at tempt vbiblc to combine ton American shawl with ibe habits of a mantilla, and it was al ways slipping from cue shoulder, that was so supple and vivacioqs as to betray the deficien cies of an education in stays. There was a cluster of black curb around her low foro- D'-id, fitting her no closely as to scour to bo part of the sealskin cap she wore. Once, from the foi-co of habit, she attempted to put her shawl over her head and talk through the folds gathered under her chin, but an aston ished look from the senator checked her. Nevertheless he felt reliovQd, and, rising, mo tional her to q chair with a heartiness he ^vould have, scarcely shown to a Parisian toil- leta. And when, with two or three quick, long steps she reached his side uud sho wed a frank, kmo cut but strong and determined little face, feminine only in its flash of eye and beauty of lip and chin curves, he put down the pamphlet he had taken up some what ostentatiously and gently begged to know her business. I think I have onco before spoken of her voice—an organ more often cultivated by my fair countrywomen for singing than for speaking, which, considering that much of our practical relations with the sex are carried on without the aid of an opera score, seems a mistaken no tion of theirs—and of its sweetness, gentle inflexion, and musical emphasis. She had the advantage of having lieen trained in a musical language, and came of a race with Wboiq catarrhs and sore throats were rare. So that in a few bripf phrases she sang the senator into acquiescence as she imparted the plain libretto of her business—namely, a “desire to see some of hb rare engravings ** Now the engrav ings in question were cer* tain etchings of the early Great Apprentices of tho art, and were, I am happy to believe, extremely rare. From my unprofessional view they were exceedingly bud—showing the mere genesis of something uinoe perfected, but dear, of course, to the true collector’s soul; I don’t believe tliat Carmen really ad-, mired them either. But the minx knew that the senator prided himself on having the only ‘pot hooks’ of the great ‘A,’ or the first ar- tbtic efforts of ‘II 1 —1 leave the real to be filled in by the connoisseur,—and the senator became interested. For the last year, two or throe of these abominations had been hanging in his study, utterly ignored by tbp cuspid visitor. But here was apprecUto t4on! “She was,” she added, “only a poor young artist, unable to purchase such treas ures, but equally unable to resist the oppor tunity afforded her, even at the risk of seeming bold, or of obtruding upon a great man's ortvaev." etc., etc. menial compact than the superb frankness 1 with which each confides to each the various irregularities of their friends. It b upon | these sacred confidences that tho firm founda tions of marriage rest unshaken. Of course the objects of this comment, at least one of them, were quite oblivious, “I 1 trust,” said Carmen, timidly, when they had | for the fourth time regarded in rapt adxnira- h tion an abominable something by some Dutch ' woodchopper, “1 trust I am not keeping you j from your great friends”—her pretty eyelids j were cast down in tremulous distress—‘J should never forgive myself. Perhaps it b important business of the state?” “Oh, dear, no! 77iey will come again—it’s rfiei/ business.” The senator meant it kindly. It was as near the perilous edge of a compliment as your average cultivated Boston man ever ventures, and Carmen picked it Up, femininely, by its sentimental end. “And 1 suppose J shall not trouble you again?” “I shall always do proud to place the port folio at your disposal. Command me at any time,” said the senator, with dignity. “You qre kind. You are good,” said Car men, “and I—I um but—look you—only a poor girl from California, that you know not.” “Pardon me, I know your country well.” And indeed he could have told her the exact number of bushels of wheat to the acre in her own county of Monterey, its voting popula- “Yea,” interrupted Carnun sadly, “I it will bo some business, some claim, some thing for somebody—ah! Madre de Dios— you will not speak, and I——” “When do you chink of returning?” asked the senator, with grave politeness; “when are we to lose youf’ “I shall stay to the last—to the end of the session," said Carmen. “And now I shall go.” She got up and pulled bev shawl viciously over her shoulders, with a pretty pettbhness, perhaps the most feminine thing she had done that evening. Possibly, the most genuine. The senator smiled affably: “You do not deserve to be disappointed in either case; but it is later than you imagine; let mo help you on the shorter dbtauce in my carriage; it b at the door.” He accompanied her gravely to the car riage. As it rolled away she buried her little figure in its ample cushions and chuckled to herself, albeit a little hysterically. When vho had reached her destination she found herself crying, and hastily, and somewhat angrily, dried her eyes as she drew up at the door of her lodgings. “How have you prospered?” asked Mr. Har- lowe, of counsel for Royal Thatcher, as he gallantly assisted her from tho carriage. “I have been waiting hero for two hours; your interview must have been prolonged—that was a good sign.” “Don't ask mo now",” said Carmen, a little tion, its political bi.-is. Yet of the more im portant product before him, after the manner of book-read men, ho knew nothing. Carmen was astonished, but rcsjxvtful. It transpired presently that she was not aware of tho rapid growth of the silkworm in her own district, knew nothing of the Chinese, question, and very little of the American mining laws. Upon these questions the sen ator enlightened her fully. “Your name is historic, by the "ay,” he said pleasantly “There was a Knight of Alcantara, a ‘de Haro,’ one of the emigrants with La Casas.” Carmen nodded her head quickly. “Yes; my gi-oat-givat-g-r-c-a-t grandfather!” The senator stared. “Oh, yes. I am the niece of Victor Castro, who married my father’s sister.” “The Victor Castro of the ‘Blue Mass’ mine?” asked tho senator abruptly. “Yes,” she said quietly. Had the senator been of the Gashwiler type he would have expressed himself, after the average masculine fashion, by a long-drawn whistle. But hb only perceptible apprecia- i savagely, “I'm worn out and tired.” “Mr. Harlowe bowed. “I trust you will be better to-morrow, for we expect our friend, I Mr. Thatcher.” | Carmente brown cheek flashed slightly. “He should have been hero before. Where is he? What was he doing?” “He was snowed up on the plains. Ho b coming as fast as steam can carry him; but he may bo too late ” Cannon dic^ not reply. Tho lawyer lingered. “How did you find the great New England senator ?” he asked, with a slight professional levity. Carmen was tired, Carmen was worried, Cannon was a little self-reproachful, and she -aid ‘Snails qqi pun ‘JoitRin oqi oi iueuni<l -moo joq p.iuoq iicq oq infl itionisSB.Ltrjqmo ptro eatiLtxqd pcqjfmra qii.u joq laaffi oi inoqn bV.-A pun '0.1-12 cp uowuuo poepoa puq Avmv poAom inq ion pip ooqoiuqx M uo;nuoa oqi jo ino q.leads inqi M0.ip oq.M oqs nra it ‘oatj uo.C stj ains sv ‘joj •.Cup-oi r.oX i*0Ars oqw ucrao/A oqi sp.nuv -oi OAi|iu;v:uo;nop Xjoa ;ou oju no a Apq»A -joo puy lifiooo tSuiift equi m>X ‘(PAV,* XiJtnoojJ aoqrjuqx ppra U 'l?up;inqi «*a\ i„ juoq *q;i3o ai ion noX n?

He saw it all now. He had been, in sonic vague way, deluded. He had given confidential audience to the niece of one of the Great Claimants lie fore con- j gross. The inevitable ax had come to the grindstone. What might not this woman dare ask of him? He was the more implaca ble that he felt he had already been pre{>os- ses**fd—and honestly prepossessed—in her favor. Ho was angry with her for having pleased him. Under the iey polish of his : manner there were certain Puritan callosities caused by early straight lacing. He was not yet quite free from his ancestor's cheerful ethics that Nature, as represented by an Im pulse, was ns much to be restrained as Order represented by a Quaker. .Without apparently noticing Ills manner, Cannon went on, with a certain potential freedom of style, gesture and manner scarcely to bo indicated in her mere words. “You know, then, I am of Spanish blood, and that, what was my odopwed country, our motto was *God and Liberty.* It was of you, lir—the great Emancipator--tho apostle of that Liberty—the friend of vac down-trodden and oppressed—that I, as a citild, firot know.

There were frauds rushed through; i there were long-suffering, righteous ^loniands i shelved; there wore honest, unpaid debts dis- i honored by scant appropriations; there were closing scones which only the saving sense of American humor kept from being utterly i vile. The actors, the legislator, themselves, : knew it, and laughed at it; the commentators, 1 the press, knew it mid laughed at it; the audience, the gi’eat v.neiican people, knew it of charge, Ou due till patent is secured.
