Greensboro, N. 0 Jnly 14, 1ST4. So. 17,7li-ly My husband came tenderly to my aide. '■ Are you goingout this evening, love r •' OI course 1 am." Motked down complacently al my dress of pink crape, dew-drop-ped over wilh crystal, anil the Hails of pink azaleas that caught np its folds here anil there. A diamond bracelet encircled one round white arm, and a little cross blazed 6tfal-ly at my throat. I hail never look ed belter, and I fell a sort of girlish pi itle as my eyes met tho fairy re- Section in the mirror. "Come Gerald, make haste!— whv. you haven't begun to diess yet!" ' Where were my wifely instincts thai I did not see the haggard, drawn look in his features—the levered light iu hi eyes T "I cau'i go to niglii, Madeline— 1 am not well enough." " You are never well enough to oblige me, Gerald. I am tired of being put off with such excuses." He made no answer, but dropped his head in bis hand on (he table before him. "Oh, come, Gerald," I urged petulantly. " It is so awkward for me to go alone, always" He shook his head listlessly. " 1 thought pel haps you would be willing to remain al home with me, .Madeline."' ••Men are so selfish," I saitl. plaintively, "and 1 am all dressed. Claudia look half an hour for my hair. I dare say you'll be a great deal quieter without me—that is, il you are determined not to go" No answer again. •• Well, it you choose to be sullen, I can't help it," 1 said lightly, as 1 turned and went out of the room, adjusting my silver boquet-holdcr, the tuberoses and heliotropes seem-ing to distill incense at every mo-tion. Was I heartless and cruel T Had I ceased to love my husband ? From the bottom of my heart I believed that 1 loved him as truly antl ten deily as ever wife did, but I had been so spoiled au.l petted all my brief, selfish life that the better instincts were, so to speak, en tombed alive. 1 went lo the party and had my fill ol adulation ami homage, as usual. Tbe hours seemed to glide away, shod with roses and winged with music and rich perfume; and it was not until, wearied with dancing, 1 sought a momentary refuge i" Ih*. ball lighted tea room, that I beard words awakening me, as it were, from a dream. " Gerald Clen !" I could not be mistaken iu the name—ii was scarcely common-place enough lor that. They were talking—two or three stout, busi-ness like looking gentlemen—in the hall without, anil 1 could catch, now and then, a fugitive word or phrase. " Fine, enterprising young fel-low !—great pity!—totally ruined, so Jiees & McKorden say !—reckless extravagance of his wife!'* All these vague fragments I beaid, and then some one said : •' And what is he going to do now *" •• What can he do I" I am sorry; yet he should have calculated his income aud his expense better."— " Or his wife should. Deuce take these women—they are at the bot-tom ol all a men's troubles." And they laughed! Oh, how could they' I had yet to learn how easy it is in this world to bear other people's troubles. 1 tose hurriedly np, with my heart Healing tumultuously beneath the pink azaleas, and went back to the lighted corridors. Albany Moore was waitiug to claim my hand for the redowa. " Are yon ill. Mis. Clen ! How pale yon look f" I—I am not very well. I wish demanded widly. " Why can't you leave me in peace !" " It's I, Gerald—tour Madeline— yout own little wife." And I caught trout his band the pistol he was trying to eonoealin iiis breast-its mate lay en the maible hearth under tbe mantle— and lliiuir i." out of the window. "Geiaid, would \on have left inel'' •• i would have esca|ied"'he cried, still hall del ilious to all appearance. Debt—disgrace—misery—her re-proaches— 1 woultl liave escaped them all." His head fell like that ol a weary child on my shoulder. 1 drew him gently to a sofa, and soothed him with a thousand mute caresses; for had it not been all my fault? And through all tbe long weeks ol fever that lollowed I nursed him with unwavering care and devotiou. I had but one thought—one desire— to redeem myself in his estimation ; to prove to him that I was some thing more and higher than the mere butterfly of fashion I had hitherto shown myself! Well, the March winds bad bowled them selves into their mountain fastness ; the blight April lain -drops were dried on the bough and spray—and now the apple blossoms were tOS-sing their fragrant billows of pink] bloom in the deep blue air of later May. Where Were we now f ll was a picturejqne little cottagejusl out ol ibecity, furnished very much like a magnified baby bouse. < !<-■' aid sat in a ensbioued easy cbair on the piazza, .jus; where be could glance through the open window at me working a batch ol biscuits, with sleeves lolled up above ray elbows, and the " gold thread" hair neatly combed in a silken net. " What an industrious lairy it is," he said, smiling sadly. " Well, you see I like it! It's a great deal better tliau those sonatas on (he piano!" " Who would have thought you woultl make such a notable house-keeper 1? I laughed gleefully—I had a child's delight in being praised. "Areyou not going to Mrs. D lane.v's diMpiel parly !' he punned. " No. what do I ease lor croquet parties f I am going to finish your shuts, and you'll read aloud to me." "Madeline, 1 want yon to answer me one question." •• What isil P I had safely deposited my pan ot biscuits in the oven by this time, and was dusting the Hour off my hands. " What have you done with your diamonds I" " I sold I hem long ago, they paid several heavy bills, beside settling halt a year's reni here." "But Madeline, you were so proud of yonr diamonds." " I was once—new they would be the bitterest reproaches my eyes could look upon. O, Gerald! had I been less vain and thoughtless and extravagant—" I checked myself, and a lobin singing in the perfume depths of apple blossoms above the piazza, took up the current of souud. "That's right little ted breast," •said my husband, half jokingly. " talk her down ? She has forgot ten that our past is tlead, and that we have turned over a new page iu the book of existence. Madeline, do yon know how I leel sometimes, when I sit and look at you I" " No!" " Well, I (eel like a widower who was married again." My heart gave a little super-stitious jump. " Like a widower who was mar-ried again, Gerald f •■ Yes. I can remember my first wife—a brilliant, thoughtless child —without an idea beyond the grati-fication of present whims—a spoiled plaything! Well, that little Made-line has vanished away into the past somewhere ; she has gone away to return no more, ami in her stead lie-hold my second wife, a thoughtful tender woman, whose watchful love surrounds me like an atmosphere, whose character grows more noble, anil develops itsell into new depth and beauty every day !" I was kneeling by bis side now. with my cheek upon his arm and my eyes looking into his. ••And which do you love best, Gerald, tbe first or tbe second wife!"' •■1 think the trials and vicissi-tudes through which we have just passed are welcome indeed: since that have brought me, as their har-vest traits, the priceless treasure ol my second wife."

After the tight and destruction of the Iudian to*n in that locality, one of the vol iinlecrs wandering in the woods, saw the head of au Indian peering at him from behind a rock, and without a whereas of any length and resolution quite as brief, brought his gun to his should.-i and fired a shot that tumbled over tbe inquisitive, aboriginal. To the hunter's horror he found tho victim of the female sex, with a papoose strapped to her back. He removed the babe, and he and his companion buried the mother. He carried the infant over a bundled miles to hi-log cabin, on the banks of the Ohio ami adopted the boy.

A Silk-lined House. I heard two little boys down by the brook today, talking about their fathers' houses, aud boasting Low grand they were. Johnny said his house had a velvet carpet in the pallor, and lace curtains at the win-dows. Willie said bis bouse had splendid glass chandeliers, that sparkled like diamonds; and tbe walls were beautifully painted. I thought I would like to tell them about a house very much more wou-deilul than those they lived in, be cause it is builded by a very small insect. This house is made by a kind of spider that lives in California, and i- called the mison-spider. His house is very marvelous for such a liuie fellow to make all by himself, wiihont any hammer, or saw. Of, trowel, or axe, or nails, or plaster, or any such things as men use in building; and yet his mansion is tit days was regarded as littte better I »f B little queen ; for it is lined than a negro now, his love making | throughout with white silk I did not prosper.

What does it mean I We come to Fayetteville, which reminds one, who knew her in form-er years, of a relic of some sail oast. True she is showing signs of con-siderable life. But with a water power unsurpassed in the State. belted by the noble pine, with good cotton lands spreading far away, what should she be! What would Greensboro do, if in her incorporate limits she hail water-power suffi-cient for a half dozen millsI This is one of the oldest towns iu the State, known iu Revolutionary times as Campbelton, and Cross Creek. Taking the latter name from the fact that two creeks cross each other almost at right angles, and that too, without their waters mingling but little. She has great respect for her buried dead, as may be seen in the beautiful cemetery ou her border. We see on parade two companies, one of which has kept its organization perfect since 1702. But we started for the Tarheel country. So we pass on below Fay-etteville, part of the time along the road travelled by Col Fanning with his prisoners for Wilmington.— Away from the river and swamps we see the towering old pine. It is making music sad, iu this sooty, pitchy laud. It has nearly yielded its last turpentine, having been hacked from 10 to 15 feet high.
