CITY ADVEBTISBMFKTS. _ LOUIS DELMAB'8 WOE. J I. I am Loois Delmar, who oame to America first in die year 1856. tfhis is ten years since. AH* He was a time Sdtttbern gentleman I became deeply attached to Mm. H* was a kind to ne as if he had been my o«n ion . He pre railed on me to discontinue my wanderings, and to remain with him, sharing in the deligbto of hia home—his companion and friend in all hia reoreations. Madeline, too, was seldom oat el them both I related my ma ny adventures in foreign lands. It lsquiU trtie (I may say it frankly, since I oonfess myself now changed) that I had been verj brave, even rash, in those past days of adventure. Even now, as ItoM these sto ries my blood wantd bound' an* the old wild joyousness would glow in ay breast. [ related my adventures with pee«liir relish. Madeline listened. Her deep blue ayes glowed with feeling as I spoke of peril braved and danger escaped; her face shone with, fond oppression. You are reminded of fiesdemona, * no Joubt. But, in justioe tq Madeline, I must say that I was no swarthy Moor; on the contrary, a young man, but four years her senior, with blazing black eyes, dark curling hair and mustache, and the manners more of it gentleman and a scholar than of a wild adventurfer in barbarous lands. Besides, I had loved Madeline long and devotedly, and only in silence from a Senso of honor. It was now different. Now I woed her with my eyes; afterward with my voice. It was one soft July night when Mr. Bates placed his daughter's hand in mine and we were betrothed.We were soon afler married. The father accompanied us on pur wedding tour. Our home became the old plantation ; and there, a year later Mr. Bates died. He had lived oftly long enougli to tafco' mr infant daughter Clara onee in Ms arms. After oar father's death bis affairs were found to be in hopeless confusion. I saved from the wreok a small remnant anly of the estate. With this we bought a little cottage close to the city, among derness of greeB leaves* and here established our home. We were happy. My home was mylittlo heaven. .My wife was ibeipressibly dear to mo. Little Clara became a flaxen-haired angel, who won our hearts to her. When she was three years old our little Louis was born. Welcome, blackeyed boy 1 Our circle was now complete. I opened a small store in the eity. Here I passed a portion of each day. I had much leisure,which I employed in reading —chiefly the American ppets and romancers To amuso my wife I sometimes wrote a little poem or tale. I acquired a good command oflanguage oF my adopted country. You may perceive that I am not iuoorreot in its nse, beyond* on occasional lapse into the modes of expression peculi ar to my Fronoh birth and rearing. Mj business rewards were sufficient to insun the presence of comfort ia jay home, anc beyond this I had no ambition. . OuUidC of my home there was nothing in the work for mo. I thanked God for the rest anc peace that had fallen on my life. I livec for my Madeline and for my childen. To my neighbor St. John'oind my neigh bor Howard it seemed almost inWedihlt that this quiet, scholarly, dimestio Mr Delmar, who oarao and went to toad from his store, morning and evening,ao regular, ly, so much in a commonplace manner should have been the hero of thrilling adventure in African juooU,. should. hav« had his arm torn from, the shoulder by an enraged lion, should have tramped over many countries jovially independent of danger or discomfort!

W Brainerd & Co, OXtOCBBS, 103 MURRAY, near WEST 8t. GEO. W. BRAIKERP looked with sincere HDrror on this fratricidal contest frotff the first moment that I had discovered its existence. I was not by b^an American, it is £rue. Also the instinct or patriotism had doubtless been injured 'or dulled in my breast by the Hfe I had led from such an early age in many lands. Add that my personal love for Amerifta was not, perhaps, remarkable. Still, when I viewed Ae act of the 8outh! ero Americans in assailing the flag for which their ancestors foaght and Wed, I confess I was astonished, I was honifisd. Here was no oppression to resist, no tyranny to pombat. Ail wpp brightness and prosperity in the land-. I bad no sympathy with the rebels. I did not endeavor to hide this from my neighbors. n "ter wanted I" It was a young man in the rebel uniform, who, before breakfast next day, called at my house with a squad of soldiers in the suit of gray. " Fall in I" I looked with some astonishment at him. Oould it be that tho rebellion needed onearmed men to fight in it# battles? « Fall in I". Madeline stood at my side, holding my ona hand tightly in both her own,and looking with frightened eyes upon the rebel officor. " Fer refutation's kid, old boy," said he, as if uneasy beneath Madeline's gaze "I've got orders t' shoot yer if yer bstreperoas. That's all I know about it." Madeline released my hand, and placing her palm gently on my shoulder, spoke in French. C» tio» my husband ! It can not be that tboy want you to fight.

CITY ADVEBTISBMFKTS. _ LOUIS DELMAB'8 WOE. J I. I am Loois Delmar, who oame to America first in die year 1856. tfhis is ten years since. AH* He was a time Sdtttbern gentleman I became deeply attached to Mm. H* was a kind to ne as if he had been my o«n ion . He pre railed on me to discontinue my wanderings, and to remain with him, sharing in the deligbto of hia home—his companion and friend in all hia reoreations. Madeline, too, was seldom oat el them both I related my ma ny adventures in foreign lands. It lsquiU trtie (I may say it frankly, since I oonfess myself now changed) that I had been verj brave, even rash, in those past days of adventure. Even now, as ItoM these sto ries my blood wantd bound' an* the old wild joyousness would glow in ay breast. [ related my adventures with pee«liir relish. Madeline listened. Her deep blue ayes glowed with feeling as I spoke of peril braved and danger escaped; her face shone with, fond oppression. You are reminded of fiesdemona, * no Joubt. But, in justioe tq Madeline, I must say that I was no swarthy Moor; on the contrary, a young man, but four years her senior, with blazing black eyes, dark curling hair and mustache, and the manners more of it gentleman and a scholar than of a wild adventurfer in barbarous lands. Besides, I had loved Madeline long and devotedly, and only in silence from a Senso of honor. It was now different. Now I woed her with my eyes; afterward with my voice. It was one soft July night when Mr. Bates placed his daughter's hand in mine and we were betrothed.We were soon afler married. The father accompanied us on pur wedding tour. Our home became the old plantation ; and there, a year later Mr. Bates died. He had lived oftly long enougli to tafco' mr infant daughter Clara onee in Ms arms. After oar father's death bis affairs were found to be in hopeless confusion. I saved from the wreok a small remnant anly of the estate. With this we bought a little cottage close to the city, among derness of greeB leaves* and here established our home. We were happy. My home was mylittlo heaven. .My wife was ibeipressibly dear to mo. Little Clara became a flaxen-haired angel, who won our hearts to her. When she was three years old our little Louis was born. Welcome, blackeyed boy 1 Our circle was now complete. I opened a small store in the eity. Here I passed a portion of each day. I had much leisure,which I employed in reading —chiefly the American ppets and romancers To amuso my wife I sometimes wrote a little poem or tale. I acquired a good command oflanguage oF my adopted country. You may perceive that I am not iuoorreot in its nse, beyond* on occasional lapse into the modes of expression peculi ar to my Fronoh birth and rearing. Mj business rewards were sufficient to insun the presence of comfort ia jay home, anc beyond this I had no ambition. . OuUidC of my home there was nothing in the work for mo. I thanked God for the rest anc peace that had fallen on my life. I livec for my Madeline and for my childen. To my neighbor St. John'oind my neigh bor Howard it seemed almost inWedihlt that this quiet, scholarly, dimestio Mr Delmar, who oarao and went to toad from his store, morning and evening,ao regular, ly, so much in a commonplace manner should have been the hero of thrilling adventure in African juooU,. should. hav« had his arm torn from, the shoulder by an enraged lion, should have tramped over many countries jovially independent of danger or discomfort! Yet it is. so.

I was not by b^an American, it is £rue. Also the instinct or patriotism had doubtless been injured 'or dulled in my breast by the Hfe I had led from such an early age in many lands. Add that my personal love for Amerifta was not, perhaps, remarkable.

" Fall in I" I looked with some astonishment at him. Oould it be that tho rebellion needed onearmed men to fight in it# battles? « Fall in I". Madeline stood at my side, holding my ona hand tightly in both her own,and looking with frightened eyes upon the rebel officor. " Fer refutation's kid, old boy," said he, as if uneasy beneath Madeline's gaze "I've got orders t' shoot yer if yer bstreperoas. That's all I know about it."
