(ily lead not, ' TO bor,Vuy Stretkto was, the 114d8w:est, best dressed and most pleasing man of hor acquaintance. That he had n. fla4 houetit}u4 a great 404 of property in SsNvillo was rather a drawback than otherwise. She. attached no value to lnonl@y, and had not the least idea that everybody in the world -had not always enough of it. Money was literally a drug in the market to her. She would have fancied -that handsome Mr. Stretton just as quickly if he had had none of it. She had really fallen in levo with him, and had invited herself here ou purpose to seg whether ho were possibly drifting toward hum- drum matrimony with his cousin Agnes, whose interest in the fac- tories, though not so large as his, was by no means to be despised. When Flossy carne to Millvillo she was iu great fear of this ; but now sho began to feel quite safe on that score. The exqusite calmness and sweetness of . Agnes' face was unshad .tied by vexation, however desperately Flossy flirted with Guy, however tenderly he began to regard her arch and tempting face. Neither of them knew how muoh it cost Agnes to maintain that un ruffled composure, that unvarying gentleleas and kindness which ser- ved so well to hide a very sharp struggle. The truth was, that Agnes had not spent so many years with Guy in the unrestrained intercourse of home life, had not joined with him in elaborating so many plans for the benefit of their workmen, without learning to love and appreciate all that better part of him which the most of the world know little or nothi[lg about. Flossy Carver loved him for just what the outside world valued hid] at. But Agnes Strettou knew him as ho was. She knew that ho car- ried the warm heart of a brave and generous luau beneath his careless manners, that while people in gen- eral thought he was only tunusing himself he was always busy with some scheme for making things better, while he shrank from public notice so much that few ever gave him credit for what ho was actually doing. This was so much the case that many of his own operatives were daily cursing hint for leading an idle and luxurious life and thank- ing and pr'aiaing his head man, Gibbs, for bouefits which in reality came from their master's thoughtful brain and generous hand. • It was Agnes along who did hini perfect justice, and the conscious-. ness of this made 'him dearer than 'ever to her, as it would to any true woman. She knew too well what she was losing, while Flossy did not know in the„least what sho was gaining. The' gain was hors ;• Agnes grew surer of that every day. Gny was plainly more and more charmed with Flossy each time he saw her. She w..s like a little bright butterfly always flitting about hie] ; and site had a sweet voice orf - .ret y repar- tees, a delicious laugh that did not sound likti folly, and a caressing affectionateuess that warmed while it pleased and flattered. . Agnes owned herself that she cotfld --not woudcr at it ; that she had no right to blame Guy. But tho pang was sharp for all that. Agnes Strettou was a woman and not a saint. But she was as proud as she was fair and graceful, and as just as sho was generous. Guy Stretton Was unwittingly turning his back upon the very ideal of a noble and loving woman to chase after a pretty, dazzling insect sure to lose half its tinsel charms in being caught. Ile was so eager in the pursuit. that for once- he allowed his favor- ite plans to rest uncxccuted. Just at the wrong moment he ..relaxed - that watchful and provident care over his own work people which had kept them comparatively quiet amidst the general restlessness. The tinges grew harder, tho mur- murs of sho 1100r grew louder, and for the first time since he begone a man Guy Stretton was to theta, He had come to an understanding with Flossy. They tvere to be married and leave for Paris iu November,and re- main abroad a year or two. Gibbs un- derstood everything perfectly well now, and the concern was never more flourishing. Agnes heard this a ith a sick heart ; nut only for herself but she feared for other's in the future. But what could she say ? whet word of warning could she give? Tho only thing she could do was to use her own resources freely in quieting the discontent of those who suffered. She was not absolved from hor own duties because Guy had been sur- prised into temporary forgetfulness of his. She knew that his con- science would resume its sway, and that by-and-by he would be him- self again,' But no such confidence was felt in him by his work -people. Even Gibbs himself began to think the master was not near so much of a man as he thought he was, and to plume himself with the idea that he, Gibbs; was the real brains of the contern, M. for Andre C.txntichael, .1e vetttell curses bods lours and deep al tF,t costly 111eyry-tuakings tla>iv. altvaylt iir 'progress at .the War house, while the master never showed hituselt' down iu the town, and the talk was that ho wasn't even satisfied with that kind of Ming, but leas -,going to Jurope for good, and all. . "And a cures go With him from all the half starved wretches he is ruuuing away. to get out of the sight of. I should like to mark his smooth face with one deep scar that the young miss wouldn't like the look so 'well.” • Andrew Carmichael said this cliuchiug his heavy fists in impotent wrath at some real or fancied injus- tice. "Are you sure] the master kuows of that V' said the Englisinan, Burns ; "perhaps he is not so much to blame for that, after all." "Know it? Of course he knows it ; it's his business to know it. Isn't it his factory ?" "Yes it's his factory, fast enough ; that we all know. But the Master's been in New York a week Dome to- morrow, and this thing that you complain of is only since Wednes- day." "That L complain of, burst out Carmichael. "You talk as if I was the only man it hurt. There's others as good as me, ay, twice as good, that this new way cuts as hard as it does Hie. And isn't that the truth, lads V' "Ay ! that it is," cried half -a - dozen voices ; "and the master'll make it right the minute he comes back, or we'll know tho reason why." "Ay, that we will, or we'll break a few of his fine big windows for hila, up there at his brick house." Burns shook his head, but he chose to make no further question there. Opposition only heated Andrew Carmichael's wrath seven tines 'hotter, and he resolved that he would talk with the other men separately when Andrew was away. Carmichael turned to-"go""home, nursing his angor by frequent ex- pletives' and abundant gesticulation as he went: Nobody minded him touch; for it was getting dark and there was that night more than usual stir and commotion in the streets. Andrew Carmichael rushed along, unhindered and unnoticed, and the free and 'uncontrolled indulgence of his wrath began to elate hint with the idea that he could do whatever ho • would. Why could he not ? Was he not a man, like any other, only with a stronger arta and bettor blain than.'most of those around him? Why should the not go and face the master boldly, and demand justice and fair play as front one man to another ? ' IIe, Andrew Carmichel, would have the courage to stand up boldly for himself and his class if no one olso dared to do it. Lashing himself with such bitter interrogations, ho went on to meet Mr. Stratton on his way from the station. The chances .are that if ho had gone --to his house -on the sanle':err- and he would not have dared to speak. Tho great luxurious place, the nicely ordered conventionalities which hemmed in the master would have daunted him and his voice would have died ;sway when lie at- tempted to use it. But out here in tho swiftly gathering darkness, in thenoise of the sweeping wind and the hurrying crowd, -hot from the recent dis- cussion of his..grievances, he felt as if he could dare tl:lything. The moment lie caught ,,ight of Mr, Strettou stepping fro the lighted platform, he addresse,: 'rim, eagerly, fiercely, and with An .;'.i ,gesticula- tion. osticula-•tion. Guy Strettou stop]): I ind looked at him attentively. h ,r an instant he .could not stake out what..he -meant, mined he . leas entirely ignorant of the matter- in :question, siuec the trouble had occurred since he left hone. There was something peculiaa'ly piquant and striking in the contrast between the figures of the two leen, Guy always fine and elegant in every feature and outline, just re- turned from the great city,whcro he had heard the most delicious music, selected exquisitive ornainents for his bride, enjoyed the choicest of society and been beset with every flattering and deferential attention, how roughly confronted by that dusty, haggard shape, a coarse voice pouring outcomplaints almost uliiD- telligible by passion. Guy' Stretton slightly knit his calm, arched eyebrows as he en- deavored to understand who the speaker could bo, and what he wanted. Then he made a slight imperious gesture of dismissal as if re- pelling the unsoomiugy interup- tion. "To -morrow," said he quietly, "I will soo you to-tnoi'row, at the office." • Is the man drunk, sir?" asked an obsequious policeman, hurrying up. "Shall I•take flim in charge, sir 1" "No," said Guy, "I know him, he's one of my men.". • "One of your slaves, you mean," cried Carmichael, infuriated beyond control by his ivastox's coo.luess, nod by the suggestion --of- boing taken into custody. A. tuontent before he had beep fancying himself nuy inn's. equal and able to dare any- thing. Now, in an instant, be , felt himself cooly thrust down beneath Mr. Stretton's feet, uot answered, not even notioed- "l'ake that then 1" cried he, springing furward and aiming a blow full, in Guy Strettou's face, before there was time to parry it. You'll carry my mark if yuu won't hear my story So totally uuexpected was the act that Guy Strettou could not snake the least effort to save him- self. He was stunned tor au in- stant, staggered and would have fallen but for the rail by which he stood. His assailant was taken into cus- tody at once, and a dozen different stories flew about the town of the hand to -Gaud --contest butweeli a master and a work-tinl•Il;-itu---w•hiel the latter had much the best of it and would have conquered it' he had not beeu dragged off by a dozen policemen. Then it was._ whispered iu certain quarters that the unfortunate workman was that bravo defender of the rights of the workingman, Andrew Carmichael, so well known for his bittertougue and his brawny arm, and that the master was young Stretton, elabor- ately dressed, "got up in tiptop style," just returning front a visit to New York. The rumor flew, and grew ever larger as it went. It was like it lighted torch among inflammable material. Tho town had been noisy and disturbed of late. - There had been rude shouts and tumults iu the stroots by day, and there had been several trifling riots by night, attended by threats of further out- rage if the masters did not do sonic great and indefinite thing. to make the hard times better. Tho blood of several nations was represented among the population of Melville. There were hien there who had been. familiar with. trade strikes and outrages in their, own country before they sought refuge in this. Thus leaders were not wanting for any thing rash and desperate. The greatest difficulty was to find a suffi- cient number of hands for such work. Such things had never yet been done in Millville and by far the larger portion of its people left terror at the very idea. But there was something to fire them with re- sentment which should rob action of its terrors. Scouts ran up ' and down, carrying every where the ex- aggerated report of what had hap• pened to Andrew Carmichael, and calling upon his felle-w,workulen to assemble and set hien free. Failing in his attempt, since the police station was strong and well guarded, the crowd went up the street toward the brick house of Mr. Stretton, wjth its smooth lawns, glowing flower -beds and tempting IMO -glass windows.. • Guy Strettou had reached hone, and Flossy was crying and lament- ing what a dreadful scar- ho would have, Agnes, who had satisfied herself -at once --that • ther-e was -no - great harm done, was -standing by, flushed and indignant at the insult, and her aunt, Mrs. Weatherby, the nominal lady of the house, was"`siit bine, and wringing her fat, helpless hauds„ and crying,' out that they would all be murdered in becl next; when, all at once there came the noise of a multitude rushing up around the house, and a volley of well -directed stones crashed through the windows •of the very room in which they were. Happily no 'ono was touched by stones or broken glass, but Flossy went into violent hysterics, protest- ing at the top of her voice that she never would live in such a place, never ! She should.- be murdered, She -knew she should; and sho never could live with a man. with one. of his front teeth gone and such an awful scar on his face. She should hate the sight of him, sho knew sho should. Every word of which Guy's sensitive ear took in .ntinglecl with the' shouts of the crowd cursing hint for a lazy, good-for-nothing master ivho put'honest workmen in jail and fattened on the blood of tite poor, mingled with the cracking of 'snore of his favorite windows and the tramping of tho noisy crowd over his dainty piazzas 'and cherished flower -bods. It was too much for his patience. He sprang to his writing -desk, caught up his revolver, and planted himself in the window. "As sure as you live, I will shoot the first man who fires another stone," cried ho. "This is too much I give you just three minutes to leave, and if I see a single ]Han on my grounds touucls titter that time, I will fire if I fun hung for it 1" A sudden sense of the superiority of fire -arms over David's artillery seemed to pervade the crowd. Be- fore the three minutes wore over there was a universal scattering. In five minutes more the place was as silent as the grave. Guy turned round to find Agnes standing close to his shoulder, with bailliaut eyes and cheeks, Flossy under the table, a heap of speechless terror, and Airs. Weatherby on her knees in the middle of the floor clasping her hands, and saying her prayers under her breath. Guy burst out laughing, ill, the painful agitation oleo many con.ilict- ing emotions, and the sound awak- ened Flossy to a now outpouring of complaints and protestations ot, she couldn't live in such a horrid place as that, and she never would have promised to marry hiin•at alt if she had not thought sho was going to live in Europe all the time: To whicb`Guy listened with acon- temptuous smile, while Agnes turn ed away and looked out of the win- dow without seeming to obsrve either of them. Mrs. Weatherby rb y raisedhertlt hauds in horror, and mildly repeat- cried "My dear, my dear ! Is that the way to speak ?" "I don't caro whether it is or not!" cried Flossy, in shrill crescendo. "I'nl frightened to death, and I'll say whatever I've a mind to 1" "As J'os! 1i e, _certain �. Miss Carver," said Guy, with his grandest ir, "but perhaps hereafter, you will excuse my hearing you. You will allow Hie to take you at your word, and to wish you good -evening and good-bye." "And you were uot frightened, Aggie," said be, gently, as he turn- ed away from Flossy's helpless, petulant wretchedness. "No," said Agnes. Then slie colored deep, deep red, and left them, avoiding Guy's glance, which still followed her. She went to her room and locked herself in, too bewildered to think or speak ; for the old world was gone and all things were become now. Tho only riot Milleville over saw, ridiculous as that riot was in its real proportions and in its imme- diate effects, worked a vast revolu- tion in, the life of Guy Stretton Instead of the rich absentee mill owner that ho would have been, burdened with an extravagant wife, hurried on to ruin by her costly whims, and tired of her fretful com- plainings, Guy Stretton remained at home and took up his old wise and generous plans with new ardor. And in time ho learned to know the difference between an idol fancy and a true and lasting love. He recognised, beside him, the perfect_ Woman nobly planned, and Agnes at last saw her husband all she had ever hoped him to be. Yet probab- ly neither of them were ever suffi- ciently cloar•sighted to recognize iu Andrew Carmichael, their effectual, though involuntary benefactor. But for him Flossy might have rea- lized her cherished dream of Paris before. Guy awakened from his .enchantment, Andrew Carmichael it was who raised that brief tumult. which saw the sudden eclipse of the first love, which was only fancy, and the dawn of 'that love for life and death which alone deserves the sacred natno of love.

The farmer, seeing the rural postman .cooling toward. said to hint, "Mister Post•u]an wad yo jist gig a blow o' yer horn ahint the calf and mak' it come on?" The 'postman gave a shrill blast, .and, with one bound, the animal cleared the parapet of the bridge; and felt into the running stream beneath.
