ARIIG SALE! Wbo Wa th Clergyman? Calhraith B. Terry, In Church Magazine. The writer knew a colored clergyman so eloquent a preacher that he filled with admiration the congregations of several of the largest city churches who waa once invited to take dinner in a Philadelphia rectory. The rector's wife, ftuding her ser-vant unwilling to "wait on a nigger," had with great delicacy concealed the fact from him by doing the work herself, so that his feeling might not be wou.ided. The first words he Rioke at table, as a piece of de-liciously cooked steak was placed upon his plate, were: "Vou must be used to feeding dogs on raw meat; I can't eat my meat raw." Evidently he was not only ignorant of good cooking, but of the simplest elements of Christian courtesy.

The same man, afterward, at the house of a colored man of much refinement, the senior warden of the parish in which he was officiat GU i i mi i snited than you to his particular ueeds and requirements?" "But' we are married!" said Agnes, looking alarmed. "Marriage isn't always such a safeguard, assume people seem to think," said Miss Gregory, and she took snuff, and plunged into her book again. She met Barbara Clifte sometimes in the years that followed uot in what the world calls society, where people meet to compare their diamonds, euvy each other's Paris dresses aud talk wifh these they never cared two staws about but in the peaceful shadow of rich rooms, where sufferers lay waiting for the great tide of eternity xo float them away in drary purlieus, when Mrs. Vining went to scold dressmakers, and hurry up pale sewing jrirls. "A regular Sister of Charity said Agnes, scornfully; "Barbarine was just made for that sort of thing So it happciiid that B.ubarice Clil'e tad occasion to go to her beautiful rival's handsome house one day to plead for an overworked seamstress to whom Miss Vining owed money "a mere trifle" she called it, but to liuth Morris it was far more than that and Antoiiie, the French maid, showed her directly to "Madame's own room." But Barbarine stopped on the threshold appalled.

Agnes lay with her face buried among the soft cushions, the lace scarf torn away from her shoulders, the diamonds like scattered dew all over the floor, and her lovely yellow hair tangled and dishC'd'Hl. Auncs, are you ill?" Mis. Vining sat up, ghastly pale, with a wild, hysterica! laugh. "Look here!" she cried, holding np a ALMOST GOODS AWAY But it can't be helped.

island back from you are old!" STEALING A LOVER. There, darling, sit down by the fire and let me take tliiiiss Albert will Be here this evening, and I havo so much to tell ou first." Agnes Tressilian looked very lwuitiful in the soft glitter of the silver candelabra Bad the ruddy glow of the fire, as Haiba-rine Clifl'a untied her honnet-strinjis and loosened the of her cloak. Her lace was a pure, perfect oval, with Blue, languid eyes, and lijm of fresh, vivid scarlet, and her huir fell in a shining shower of gold from the fillet of blue ribbon, that she wore. Barbarine Clifl'e was what is ordinarily termed pretty girl, but Barbarine looked plain and coarse, with her lresh chocks and hazel -brown eyes, by the side of tliishloude sylph. "Who would have thought, darling," went on Barbarine, passing the soft dimpled hands in hers, as A "ties sat stnil Jnar Belore the fire, "that I should so soon have claimed your part of our old schocd-igirl compact of being each other's brides- i i A ii nu i i.

iH'jirs ou win una iniu, vitc; I don believe you can help it aud am Bitre you will admire him." She iintttlcd away in the innocent full ness of her girl-heart, as she led SJiwt Tres silian up to the dainty casket of a little room provided for her, aud Agues listened, smiling and radiant as a saint. "Well, liarbarine, has she come?" It was the first question that Albert Vin- ing asked, when his betrotheu wife came tripping acrosss the parlor threshold to meet biHi! U.rbarme nodded, brightly. "Pshaw! I am sorry!" "Albert! she remonstrated, almost in clined to be vexed. "But we have been so hapry together, all by ourselves, Rina. And now this third one comes to spoil It all." "You will like her so much, Albeit," she plended.

"Shall He slirngrged his shoulders a little dubiously. ''Well, for your sake, Kina, I'll try." Barbarine Clifle smiled triumphantly to see the unconscious start of admiration that Mr. Vining gave, when the parlor-door wung open and Miss Tressilian glided in, robed in a dress of white cashmere, with a blue-velvet band twisted through her hair roso-cheeked, golden-tressed and beautiful as a dream. "I knew he would admire her," thought unselfish little Barbarine; "and ohl I am so glad 1" There was no more question of Miss Tressiliau's being "a third one" alter this. How gracefully she harmonized with all their plans how prettily she gave her sympathy on whichever sideit watt pleaded for.

Barbarine was happier than ever and Mr. Vining, was he happy? Yes, in a sort of drea.ni, or fever, or exultation-something" so difl'erent from all he had previously known that lie scarce knew by what name to call it. Agnes Tresslian went away, after a month's visit to her old school friend, and Mr. Vining escorted her to her home among the Cat.skiU llills, at Uarbarine's especial request. "She is too beautiful to travel alone!" said the bride-elect, "and 1 shall fuel easier if you.

coma back and tell nie you Baw her sale home?" "What a whimsical little woman you are, Barbarine," said Mr. Vining, but ho obeyed nevertheless. "He will be back to-morrow!" thought Barbarine, as she sat down to her embroidery, singing to herself and counting the days' to her wedding. Only 27 of them now! But when the morrow came the servant brought in a note, at the hour she had expected Albert Vining himself to arrive a note that blanched Harbarine's peach-blossom of a cheek and neitt a keen stab to her poor little tender heart, as if a knife had cleft its way through, the quivering flesh. He had left her to transfer his recreant allegiance to Agiiea Tressilian that was the upshot ot it all.

He did not love her any longer, since beautiful Agnes Tressi-lian's lace had dawned upon his life. And Agues? She had accepted him she lied, was false to the ideal of friendship poor, simple little Barbarinehad worshiped 80 blindly. Barbarine clasped her hand over her forehead, and tried to think that she was in a wicked dream a dream which luubt come to an end soon. "I will go to her," she thought, rising suddenly up, with her sweet face as pale as a tnooiingtit snow-driit. "1 will have the truth from Agnes' own lips.

Else I never, never can believe it." i Miss Tressilian had not expected ever again to see the face of the girl she had so wickedly wronged. She had thought CJifle would sutler nnremonstratitig-ly, and in silence but she had misjudged matters in this respect. Barbarine could not give up her litts-hope without at least one struggle. "It isn my fault!" said Afmes Tressilian, with a toss of the showery golden ringlets, "that Albert loves nie better than he does you. You ought not to blame me." "Agnes! Agnes wnilert the brokenhearted girl, putting up her trembling bands as if she would ward something away from her, fascination was never on one fide alone! You dare not deny that you stole his heart away from me!" No.

Agnes Tressilian dared not deny it. She colored, bit her lip, and sent glittering, arrowy my from her lovsly blue eyes, that was half malice and half triumph." "At any rate, he is mine, now," said she, exultantly. "In this world oflove.tbe race is to the swift, and the battle is to the strong! I am sorry you take it so much to eart, Barbarine Clirl'e but love will not be controlled or driven!" Barbarine rose quietly up. "I forgive you, Agnes," she said, gently. "The time may come hen you will be glad to remember that!" "I don't want your forgiveness!" flashed back the blonde beauty; "1 will not have it!" So Agnes Tressilian was married to Albert Vining, the loveliest bride that ever the sun shoue on, and Barbarine hid away her broken heart, covering it tip with the' sweet memories, which were all that she had to dwell on now.

"It was a little fch ibby to poor Barbarine Clifte," said Mrs. tossing back the yellow curls from her alabaster, fair brow; hut I as so much better suited to Albert than ever she could be! It will be a great dejil more sensible for all parties in the ion' run!" "iliiiupb!" Raid old Mrs. Gregory, "Agnes" aunt; "how would you like it for some other woman to put in a claim for Albert on the ground that she was bettor "Ye don't belave In ghosts, don't ye?" said the Irishman as he drew his hand across his mouth after swallowing a "jig- cer" of vile Irish Courage. ell, then, be nie sowl you're no sou ov Erin, for it's a poor excuse ot a man wha wuz raised on the Old Dart, who hasn't, one or more times, been half scanit to death be the 'little I see you're grinnin' at me, but your lips wild take a different pucker, entoirly, if ye had been wid me one cool mornin' in the spring, when I wus a lad in the ould eounthry.

She was too practical, and it broke the engagement. How Pale Yon Are Is frequently the exclamation of one lady to another. The fact is not a pleasant one to have mentioned, but still the uct may be a kindly one, for it sets the one addressed to thinking, apprises her of the tact that she is not in good health, and leads her to seek a reason therefor.
