The face of the elder woman does not

"Will yea di) as " tell you ?" she asks,
in a cold, hard, voieee
"Aunt Rhodanthe, I will do any
thing, any thing, to set right this cruel
wrong." ,
Cold and lard. fall Miss Rhodanthe's
words upon Bessie's', ear :
"There is no question of setting right;
Bessie. I know what Ralph Dormer is,
by what his father Was before him. It
is a nice gory, apretty little fable, which
lie has invented. to, elear his own skirts
of the charge of falsehood and treachery.
'Blood will tell,hand.Ralph Dormer is his
father's own son."
"Aunt Rhodanthe 1" All Bessie's, old
faith and love blate up afresb at her
aunt's words, and she cries, passionately,
"It is not so, Aunt Rhodanthe. You do
not know Ralph, and I -oh ! I am right-
ly punished for doubting him for an in-
stant. I will not rest under it. 1 will
clear myself at whatever cost, and then
if he despise and spurq me, why, he
must." • ,
"Listen to me, Bessie," Aunt Rho-
danthe says. "I tell you I know what
Ralph Bernier is, though I have nate
seen him. What I tell you now, I ha.v
never told to mortal ear before. Lon_
ago I knew Ralph Dormer's father' onl
too well. He was staying with his frien
Dr. White, as Ralph is now. Th,e faini.
lies were intimate and we met every
alay, and thought as good andtrue
and noble as .you think his eon. We
were lovers, people eaid, and/ suppose I
loved him. One has such follies in youth, •
And then atlast he askecl me to marry
him, asked ine by, letter, and. I -how ab-
• su-rdly happy I was I remeniber now
how bright the world looked, and how I
sangis I went about my work. Of coarse
I answered the letter'believing all that
he said, like a fool that I was; and. thee
71
• "And then, aunt- ?" repeats Bessie;
. timidly. ;
' "'And then,' Bessie ?" says Aunt Rho-
danthe, sharply. it Why there was no
'and then.' That was alt-absolately all.
Ralph never came, never wrote. The
next thing I heard he had left the coun-
try, and two years later I _beard of his
marriage. I was young then, Bessie;
andwhen pecple are young, they 'Suffer
sharply, but believe me when I tell you
that they get over it. Grief does not
kill, but shame may. ,', And I tell you,
Bessie, that sooner than see my niece the
laughing-stodk of the country, I will
turn you out of my house. So long as
you stay uuder my-oof, I posatively for-
bid.iyo.ua attemptil g. t� ' communicate
with Ralph Dormer in any way, by word
of 'Loath, or messa u, or letter."
And so saying Aunt Rhodanthe turns
away, without wait ma for an 2nswer, and
leaves Bessie alone 41 the twilight..
The days drag t1ernselves into weeks,
:
and the weeks slip away somehow'axe'
still Ralph and Bes ie never meet. Aunt
Rhodanthe is doubly kind to Bessie in
these days; but if the girl tries to utter
a tremulous little appeal for leave to see
or write to Ralph, the elder woman's
face hardens, and. Bessie dares not go on.
Neither dares she disobey Aunt Rhoden -
the while she is under her roof, and even
if she did, would it be of an use? That,
after all, is the thotight that keeps her
silent: Were she but sure that Ralph's
love for her would come back, yes, then
she could brave 'Aunt Rhodanthe's
wrath; but of this the is net, ,can not
he, sure, and the ritk is too terrible.
Bessie is in the.lihrary- One day, turn-
ing over the old hooks. She is often at
a loss fo. occupation, now, for she does
not dare to go abou among her pension-
ers as she used to di for fear of na(ietincr
Ralph again. The hooks date from Aunt
Rhodanthe's youth; most of them, and
she looks at them Wito a lauguid amuse-
ment. Clariassa; Harlowe, The Scottish
- Chiefs, Children of the Abbey, Thaddeus
of Warsaw -did people really read
such, thrill over their pages, smile and
• sigh at the pathos and sickly sentiment-
adity-smile and sigh, not in redicule, as
Bessie does now, but in genuine sympa-
thy? She takes up an old volunte bound
in time -stained leather, and turns the
leaves carelessly.: Elegant Extracts is
the title lettered, on the back, and she
Laughs a little 'ever the quaintly turned
rhymes and obsolete spelling of the old
ballads and extracts. W . what is this
between the fea.ves ? Arnold letter, fold-
ed in the square, primitive style of the
days before envelopes were jcnown, seal-
ed with a pretty device - of Cupids ani
darts -an old letter, which bcara hi fad-
ed inte the name of "Dr. Ralph Dormer"
in Aunt Rhodanthe's old-fashioned hand.
Dr. Ralph Dormer, yes, that • is the
[-name, and the handWriting is Aunt Rho-
danthes ; there is no mistaking its char-
acter ; but What should a letter to Ralph
Dormer be doing among Aunt Ith.odan-
the's old books? Bessie stands with the
'letter in her hand, pondering. Ralph
Dormer ! Why, that was the name of
Ralph's father, too, and the letter has
never been opened, and -
"Now, then, Bessie," says Aunt Rho-
danthe, opening the door briskly, "moon-
ing again, as usual? When will you
learn, child. that 'Doping and brooding
never did any good yet ? '
"Aunt Rhodanthe," interrupts, Bes-
Sie, unheeding her words, ' 'will you look
at this ljtter that,I have fouod ?"
Miss Ithoda,nthe takes the letter from
her hand and looks at it, turning it over
and over with a vague, uncomprehend-
ing expression. Gradually a light breaks
upon her mind. The mist of forty years
roll away, and she sees herself again a ,
bright, light-hearted girl. The old lib-
rary is still before her eyes, but instead
of Bessie, a curly headed. boy _(who is
Bessie's father now) crouches over a book,
same which Bessie holds to -day. The
boy's eyes brighten and his cheeks flush
over the old ballad of "Chevy Chase,"
and he loekt up impatiently at his sister's
voice. .
"bat is it Ithoda ?" he says and.
carelessly takes the letter which she
hands him.
.
"Take it over at once, Fred," she says.
But the boy reads on and forgets all about
the commission before she has left the
room.
Forty years ago ! And for -forty years
she has been cherishing rancor and malice
and hatred in her heart -fpr forty -years
-while the old letter, that never reached
her lover, lay quietly between the leaves
of the old. book ! Ralph had gone to his
grave long- ago believing her false and.
heartless anclaruel, The wrong can never
be set right Pow ; land oh! the wasted
yeara and the wasted love and Youth and.
hope! Not a, word says Mi..4f3 Rhodanthe
as she muses;. but Bessie, watghig her
nuntaii face, Beet two slow, tears roll down
the withered. oheeks.
•*"What is it Aunt Rhodanthe ?" Bessie
asks thnidly. , . But Aunt Rhodanthe does not answer.
She only goes slowly out of the room with
the letter still in her hand; and that
,strange, soft look upon her face which for
forty years it has not worn before. •
- So it was only a mistake after all -a
cruel fatal mistake; but at last, after all
these years, she knows that Ralph Dor-
mer loved her,. and that he will not the -
villain which she has so often' called him..
Her World is upset by the knowledge you
see. ' All that she has held most firmly,
her anger; her hatred, her bitterness are
slipping from her grasp, and if Ralph
Dormer were not a villain, what Of Ralph
Dormer's son ? Her promises being over-
turned, her theory falls to the ground.
The mistake of forty years can never be
set right now; but the mistakes of to -day
must, at least, be reetified. And se Aunt
Rhodanthe, prompt in all things, writes
her letter 4c1 dispatches it, directing it,
as she did_the other one, to "Dr. Ralph
Dormer." This letter, however, doe t not
fail in reaching its destination'for, just
as Aunt Rhodanthe is sa,yingto Bessie,
"1 ilaave written to Ralph Dornier, and I
think that he will be here in the course of
the day," -a step is heard in the hall -a
step vehich sends the bright blood, flUsh- .
ing up tol3essie's forehead.
Miss Rhodanthe disappears and Bessie
goes shyly forward to meet .Ralph, but
finds herself caught up unceremoniously
in two strong arms, while a voice whis-
pers, "Can you forgive me, Bessie for all
the, hard things I have thought of you,
and for all I have made you suffer." •
It is turning the tables with a ven-
geauce, for Bessie thought she was the
one to ask for forgiveness ; but she ac-
cepts the situation with a good grace,un-
derstanding that Aunt Rhodanthe's ex-
planation has been ample enouglito spare
her the pain of confession. ,
•,"As far,as I understand it; neither of
•you has natich cause to pride yourself on
your behavior in the matter," Aunt Rho- 1
danthe says afterward., "ere have you
both been thinking exactly the same
things of each other, and making idiots
of yourselves for mouths, when a dozen
worda would have set the whole thing
straight. There are times in life when
'silence' is any thing but `golden.', I
suppose 1 am hardly the one to reproach
you for it, though," says Aunt Rhoden -
the, with -a half sigh, as she thinks of the
forty years which lie behind her.
Dr. White is gathered to his fathers,
now, and his partner, Dr. Dormer, reigns
in his stead. Dr. Dormer's wife will
never shrivel and fade into the likeness
of Aunt Rhodanthe ; for the light of
happiness which went out to early for
the, elder wemau, Still shines brightly
over Bessie Dormer's life, and ,is softly
mellowing her to a ripe and fair maturity.
When Bessie is sixty, you will find it
even harder than you do now to believe
that Bessie, in youth, as far as looks
went, was eimplyi Miss Rhodanthe over
again.

A Slight Mistake.
-A well known minister walking along
the street a fetv days since, met a, lady
for whom he had recently performed the
marriage service. Desiring to renew the
acquaintance (for the lady had interested
rli
him greatly at the time), he accosted her
with t e remark : i . ' .
- " Madame, did I not have the 151easure
of me, rying you a few- day* sinceV'
-"I 'as -married a few days since, sir."
" Y s, r h011glit I was not mistaken,'
married yeti." -
- " Indeed ! Well I thought my hus-
band was a much younger man than you
are; but I have eot seen enough of him
to make his acquaintance thoroughly.
By t e way, My dear, my chignon is
gettin shabby; ' please give me somi
InoflO3 to buy a new waterfall."
, Evi. lently this w6,s more than the Inin-
ister argained for, and. with a hasty
bow, . dcompanied by the remark, "No,
yen ,at e not the lady, I am mistaken," he
a.
took liis leave.
n Expert in Horse Talk.
There is a retired trainer named Long,
residiiig on a small farm in Alameda
Comity, who lives for nothing else but
the pleasure of being near horses. He
eats his meals Ds the stable, oftentimes
passes, the night in thestall with a favo-
rite pony, andsanacnig his equine pets is a
mare who whinniee in answer every time
he speaks to her. • Our informant relates
that the most perfect understanding evi-
dentlY, exists between Mr.. Long and at
least three, out of the five horses in his
stable Two are recent additions, but
even in their case the same affinity is
eeen in a lesserdegree. - The training of
horses, their obedience, docility and
tricks in a circus are no novelty. All of
'at have seen a horse tire 0, pistol, stand.
• on two legs, waltz, lie down with its
train et and -perform a hundred' acts of
_sagacity, but these' are simply the result
of patient training and systematic cor-
reetion. What Mr. Long claims • is far
more astounding.. He asserts that, from
a life long intimacy with horses, he
understands their speech ; he • goes
further and declares that their, nasal,
guttural, explodent and unobstructed
sounds have a different meaning, are
used by a coalition of • the brain and
'vocal organs, and that not- only do his
favorite horses understand him, but that
.every sound which -they utter is ,perfect-
ly pl in to him. When arguing with
him t though be might' eomprehend
the 4eaning. of the sounds emanating
THE HURON
from the vocal chords of a hOrses yet it
was a patent impostibility for a horse -to
understand tie English language, he re-
plied :' "Liting, eating and sleeping
with my horees has given me the know-
ledge 1 posseas, and the same intimacy
has acquired e for my horses the power
that I claim for them." Here, turning
to a alendest light built, gray pony, he
said: we are talking of you; if
you understand what I am saying turn
your head round on the off side," « The
pony did so and then resumed his feed.
• "Billy,".he_continued, "tell me your age,
how long you have lived here, and on
which side of you is your friend Vesta,"
The pony whinnied for about two minutes
consecutively, and then being loose in
his stall, walked into the adjoining one
occupied by the mare Vesta, "Now,"
•be continued, "do you and Billy walk
down together to the trough mid drink
while I make up your beds." Vesta and
Billy walked quietly out and. proceeded.
straight to the trough. While they were,
mit Mr. Long ilorned over the straw care-
fully with a ferk, and carried on an ani-
mated couversation with a roan gelding
about fifteen hands high, Vesta's neigh-
bor on the other side. The name of tlae
horse was Foley, and after talking angri-
ly to him for some minutes, about some
fault he had committed the day before,
he ordered Mr. Poky to lie down and not
to get up until, Vesta and Billy had re-
turned. Our informant saw but little in
this to prove Mr. Long's claims, as many
a horse will lie down at the word of
• command, but when, without a further
word, Poley arose and walked out to the
water trough after the• return of the
other two horses, the subject became as
difficult of solution as before. -A7 atm
