However it was decreed that he should no 
longer continue the selfish, incomplete existence 
be was living, so the morning after when Miss 
Valentine appeared, showing her gentle, softer 
natnre, she was irresistible, and Hand illy yielded 
to destiny and bis feelings, and asked her to 
marry him. She did not refuse, only hesitated 
till Mr. Dandilly was afraid she was going to, 
which gave him a wholesome fright; and when 
he realized they were quite engaged ho became 
unexpeetcdiy happy, while, hiseyesbeingatlast 
opened, he was astonished he had hugged his 
solitude so long. When he left her again at the 
gate he said. •• Remember, you are not to go again 
to the mill; I will arrange about the settlement" 
So he was somewhat surprised to see, as usual, 
the brown gingbam coming down the walk on the 
following morning, the wearer of It saucier and 
merrier than ever. It was as though one had 
laid down a dove, and on returning found it 
transformed to a biting, playful kitten. He was 
almost displeased, both with the change in her 
manner and with the di*rcgard she had shown 
to his expressed wishes. 
“I did not expect you to-day,” said he, very 
gravely. 
“ Me ! why not ?” she asked, in surprise. 
“ Did you not understand my wishes about 
yesterday ?” he asked. 
“Why, do you mistake mefor mysister, Agnes?” 
returned Miss Valentine quickly. 
Mr. Dandilly looked bewildered. “Agnes?” 
he echoed. 
“Do you not know there are two of us, Agnes 
Isabella and Isabella Agnes, and that we go on 
alternate days to the mill ?” Miss Valentine 
asked. 
Dandilly looked yet more bewildered. 
“ Who went yesterday ?” he asked. 
“ Agnes.” she replied. 
The mystery of Miss Valentine's varying mood 
was explained, and thus it was two girls had 
succeeded in awaking in a sleeping heart what 
one hud failed to do in a long series of years. 
Which of us did you do the honor of wishing 
to marry ?” asked Isabella presently. 
“Agnes, I believe,” returned Mr. Dandilly, 
doubtfully. He was sure she would not have 
spoken In that forward way. 
“That Is fortunate, else I should have the pain 
of refusing you, because I am already engaged 
to a soldier in the army of the Rappahannock, 
lie is coming home on furlough next week and 
we are to be married before be returns, so I may 
have his name in case he never comes again," 
said she, the bright look fading from her face. 
Mr. Dandilly. suddenly reassured and deeper 
in love with Ids Miss Valentine than ever, grew 
brotherly at once, and listened with much sym¬ 
pathy. When they came back at evening, Mr. 
Dandilly tied his horse. “I may go in, may I

FREEDOM. 
A Berlin paper relates another of those cu¬ 
rious incident* which occurred to a personage of 
much higher importance than even the Ambas¬ 
sador of a great Queen. The present Emperor 
of Russia, during tbe last year was traveling in 
the interior of his Empire, when he arrived at a 
little village almost exclusively inhabited by 
Jews, who received him with great respect An 
old man, with a white beard reaching nearly to 
hi? waist, and wearing a military decoration, 
struck the Emperor’s attention. The Czar in¬ 
quired the name of the man, and found he was an 
old soldier named Klblatt, who was considered 
among his people as almost a saint lie never 
touched animal food, and for fifty years had 
eaten nothing but bread and onions, using tea as 
bis usual drink. The Emperor had him tailed 
and asked him how he had obtained his decora¬ 
tion. Elblatt replied that Souwarrow had given 
it to him. 
“ Have you ever been wounded ?” asked the 
Czar. 
“ The Spirit of Evil has no power over me,” 
said the old man. “I have been often at the

THE VALENTINE TWINS 
[Concluded from Page 316, last Number.] 
One night at midsummer, Mr. Dandilly sat up 
to watch one of the younger Banburgbs. The 
child during the day had some little difficulty 
relative to an undigested green apple, and Aunt 
Halloway solemnly averred she should not be 
able to close her eyes unless some one gat up 
during the night. 11 was a favorite whim of hers 
that in case of any illness, however trilling, some¬ 
body must pass the night in full dress in a rock¬ 
ing chair, and this somebody must invariably be 
“ nephew Puisifer;” she needed rest to prepare 
her for the arduous duties of inspector general 
and commander in chief during the day, and 
Mrs. Bauburgh must retire early on account of 
“the baby.” If Mr. Bauburgh happened to be 
at home, he was always too sleepy to amount to 
much, and had gradually fallen into disuse as a 
watcher. Pulelfer, however, was a very light 
sleeper, and had the gift of being wide awuke 
whenever Aunt. Halloway looked in upon him, 
in a high crowned black silk night cap and full 
wrapper of yellow flannel. On this especial 
night the patient was well over the attack, and 
only needed a good sleep. But that was not to 
be allowed. 
“I don’t want you should permit yourself to 
fall into a drowse, nephew Pulsifer. A little 
care and nursing may prevent a fever, and one 
night of watching now may prevent a month of 
sleeplessness. I will myself look in during the 
night and observe what Is required.” 
&“I dare say you will 1” said nephew Pulsifer 
to himself. “ Yes, Aunt,” said he aloud. 
She was as good as her word. Mr. Dandilly 
was dreaming that Miss Valentine was a bottle 
of Mrs. Winslow’s soothing syrup, and was about 
to drink her, when a slight sound and jar, which 
was caused by Aunt Halloway’s door, brought 
his feet down from the chair where they were at 
rest, set him upright and wide awake in a twink- 
ling. 
“I am glad you are not sleeping, nephew 
Pulsifer; 1 could not. think of trusting Mr. Ban- 
burgh to sit up, he is so apt to fall asleep; but 
you inherit my qualifies as a watcher,” said the 
tall figure in yellow and black, advancing to the 
crib. Oh dear ! If she had only been content 
with waking one sleeper. But no. she must 
rouse the other also. 
“ Billy is very warm. I fear fever,” said she, 
putting her hand under the pile of blankets the 
poor fellow had been loaded with. 
* I think not, Aunt. His skin is quite moist,” 
returned Mr. Dandilly. 
Aunt Ilalloway cast upon him a look of digni¬ 
fied contempt

febrile symptoms, nephew. Some fevers cora-

“Beautiful wether!” 
as the gentleman said 
when he chanced to get a tender piece of mutton 
on his plate one day at dinner. 
The Richmond Examiner says it has been 
expected that, Sumter would fall for a week 
back. Not more for a -tee ale back than a broken 
front , we fancy. 
“I say, John, where did you get that loafer’s 
hat?” “Pleaseyer honor,” said John, “it’s an 
old one of yours that misses gave me yesterday, 
when you were to town.” 
A Danish writer speaks of a hiit bo miserable 
that it didn't know which way to fall and so kept 
standing. This is like the man that had such a 
complication of diseases that he did not know 
what to die of, and so lived on. 
An Irishman who had blistered his fingers by 
endeavoring to draw on a pair of new boots ex¬ 
claimed:—“By St. Patrick! I believe I shall

he was suffering for the necessaries of life
