They attract other liirht-giviiig beetles, and frequently numbers of lesser light are seen flitting around them, combining red and yellow lights of the greatest brilliancy.

As it was, li is lather had left him a large fortune, and the: use he made of it was something between a joke and a tragedy.

Uc was the ii'L'iiimalu prey of all of sharpers. He got himself into terrible scrapes and had to buy himself out of them at enormous cost. Without anv real wrong he acquired for himself an unenviable reputation among the scandal mongers of the (own. He was a vigorous young fellow with a big beard, mild ejes, and iiands as white tis a womanV. lie was, moreover, something of a dandy in his dress and manners.

Yet, withal, a kinder, better tempered soul you would not tind in a day's walk. What such a woman as Alma Thorpe could have found in him to love, is a mystery; unless, indeed, it was on the principle of woman's tenderness lor children, birds and other weuklinas. She wa: quite his opposite a quiet, sober little fellow, strom-willcd and rjuick-wittcd, with a wonderful fund of patience for her blunucring lov r. She seemed to have no object, no hope or ambition aside from his happiness. Yet, like the fool that he was, the time came when he Hung away this jewel lor a piece of glittering sham.

Luckily lie was made to pay deiir for his folly. Kendall and Alma had been engaged for nearly a year, ami their marriage was to take place shortly, when a lady ap lcar el on the scene who created a sensation in the tow n. She called herself Bonna Sanebie.i, and was accompanied by her brother, Hon Marco llamas. They re supposed to be Spaniards of distinction making a tour lor pleasure. iMnna Saucbica was a woman ol large and luxuriant iigur-, with coal black hairandcyca of the "ame hue, as bold and keen as hawk's.

She was not long in working hetself into the best circles, where hhe speedily became a great favorite. At the social gatherings her mellow voice and charming manners made her scons of friends and admirers. It was observed by the wiser vention. It came into use the of lannly.

"And for him as well," answered Kendall. "Will he riot be my brother, too?" "Santissima?" screeched the lady, flinging her robust person asrainst him with such force that he reeled against the wall. "What noble! What superb! I adore you! Yes yes, I will be your wife, and mv brother shall be your brother "Of course," assented Kendall. And so the matter was settled. If the devil has a sense of humor he must have held his sides with laughter at this mad mockery ot the sweetest ind holiest the human emotions.

Things took their natural course. The poor but noble Don Canais was to take Kendall into his favor, and, being given to the utterances of the highest sentiments, soon won the young mark's perfect confidence. There were times when Kendall's heart misgave him, when even his dull perceptions were troubled with a vague distrust. At these times Donna Sinchi-ca's passionate protestations sickened him and the brother's pompous airs mael-dened him. At such times the memory ot the days when Alma's love was all to him would smite him with a miserable heartache.

He wemld compare her sweet, pure presence with the lurid and unhealth influence of the Spanish woman and wonder at his own blindness. But Donna Sanchica was a diploinate. She knew how to deal with his dark moods so as to prolit by them. At such moments she would look at him reproach fully and sigh as if her heart were broken. 'Then Kendall would melt, and cursing himself lor a hard-hearted villain, submit more abjectly to her bland ishments than ever.

They were soon to be married, and as the donna claimed his whole time, it came about naturally that the solemn don, her brother, consented to take charge ol Kendall's aifairs. He developed so keen a talent for business that pores open. She has lived for the past eight months in this way, not a morsel of food having passeel her lips. Her weight has been reduced from 180 to less than eighty poemds, but, although her body is so much reduced, her face still preserves a quite healthy appearance, and would not strike one as belonging to a person who has been obliged to go ithout food and who has suffered such excruciating pains. Her nerves are at such a high tension that she is unable to sleep more than two hours in twenty-four.

The constant and reirular increase in the ratio of profits earned by the money employed in commercial banking in this city, 30 years ago, not only indicated the increased burden which the merchants were compelled to pay, but showed the grow th and progress of our trade at that perioel. From 1843 to 1850 the ratio of. money increased 90 per cent, or 3 per cent per annum. A further analysis of the figures also shows that the aggregate dividenels in Boston, in some years, were higher than in New York ia the same years; whiie the increase of bank capital here was also larger than in New York. In 1S51 the capital ol the Boston banks had increased to $38,265,000.

and the dividends ranged from 7 to 8 per cent, per annum. The Capital of the Merchants' Bank at that time was $3,000,000. The Faneuii Hall Bank went into operation this year.

The wonderfully appropriate motto of the Duke of Grafton is "Ftdccus, et pretium recti', "Both the ornament and the reward of virtue." J.he landed property of the Graftons comprises 32.200 acres, uituated in four counties, and produces, even by their own admission, 34,000 per annum; but not one of them have ever had the manliness to refuse to receive the prie-e of his ancestor's shame.

The smallest examination into his affairs showed how egregiously he had been duped. Of all liis patiimony not enough had escaped the clutches of the adventuress and the hushind to af-lord him a decent subsistence. In spite of his overwhelming shame and anger there was a feeling of intense leliet in his heart. He had imagined that he loved the Spanish woman, but now he felt that it would have been a sacrifice could he have married her.

The tacts of the case are briefly these: In 1825, two years before the marriage of the Earl ed Mar to the daughter of Lord Montceh, a matechii I was liorn to the lady, who afterward lieeame its legitimate mother by her matriage with its father. When an infant, however, the boy was secretly given into the care of a poor but respectable family, whom tlie Earl paid well for the services rendered. Later on, when the little fellow had grown to be five or six years of age, be was placed under the e-are of a man named Campbell and sent to Canada. His guardian frequently tM him in later years that he was the sein of one of Scotland's noblest Eiris, and that he should some tlay be placed in iiossession of documents that would enable him to go home and live in luxury. The old man seemed under a strong pledge, however, not to reveal the parentage of his ward, and, although he broke his promise so far at to intimate on many occasions that the young man was the heir to the Earldom of Mar, he never allowed the documentary evidence, to go out of his hands, lie said that ali would be left in proper shape at bis death.

A few years ago, however, the old man died very suoelenly. without leaving the needed document for the establishment of lm ward's claim to the property ot the lead E-trL Later on, whiie excavations were being made in an outhouse on the Campbell homestead, a Ixittle was lotind with several letter in it from the Eirl of Mar which referred to his son. This seemed to be all the proof necessary but, in addition to that, Mr. Erskine has visited Gotland quietly, and found the people who had taken cjre of him when an infant and handed him over to Campbell. The jiapers held by them, and also those found in lhe bottle, set forth certain marks by which the heir could always be known, and thee the claimant undoubtedly liears.

Hi-? resemblance to the Lite Earl is also so striking, despite the changes winch hard work has made, that friends of the nobie-man have no dilficulty whateye-r in identifying Mr. Erskine as the son of 'the Earl. Articles of gold and fcilver-ware, as well as a ring, are in the presumptive heir's posses-ion, bearing the initials of bis father and mother. Leading lawyers of this country and hold out the strongest encouragement to Mr. Erskine, and men of means are offering to unite in a joint-stock company to establi-h the claim if a bond is given to pay a certain percentage on their investments.

About its oody was a solid gold band, locked by a tiny padlock, to which was attached a costly gold chain, about two inches in length, fastened to a pin. The beetle's back glistened in light, having been treated to a dre of gold, and as it lumbered along its long legs workeel te)gether in a curious fashion. "It's a shawl pin. You see the pin is used to fasten lace or a shawl, or perhaps worn on the bonnet, the insect crawiing around the length of the chain. They are perfectly harmless and not expensive, as they live on air that is.

After all, there is nothing objectionable about them, except the idea of having them crawl over you. They all come from South America, and the only lot in the city is to be taken to France, here the owner will try to to introduce the fashion of wearing them. They cost from ten to fifty dollars, depending entirely on the amount of the ring.

There Is nothing eruel about it. as they are bound loosely, and the gold has no effect upon their hard sides. In Brazil the fashion of wearing beetles is carried to a great extent. A well-known resident has a beetle with a collar of gold which meets at the top, and is there ornamented with a diamond of great value. The insect has a cage, surrounded by the plants among which it lives in its" native state, and nothing is neglected to make it as comfortable as possib'e.

But the most popular insect used lor an ornament in Brazil is a small phosphorescent beetle. These are often worn fastened in the hair, and as the two phosphorescent or light-giving spots are on the sides of the bead, the black insect is, of course, invisible, esrecially when in the raven locks of the fair Brazilians. Twenty or thirty of these beetles will throw out a light sufficient to read by, and when arranged around the head in a circle, or grouped over the forehead and held in place, the effect is beautiful.

No one would grudge Lord Nelson the reward of his splendid victories over tlie French at the battle of the Nile and Trafalgar, where the greatest hero England ever pessessed lost his life.

In 1801 Nelson was granted 5,000 per year in recognition of his brilliant victories. lie was killed at Trafalgar in 1806, and very properly his wido was granted the sum of 1,500 a year for life. A brother oftha Ad the Rev.

When Nelson's widow died her pension of 1,500 was paid to his brother William's wile, and the present Earl still receives the same sum annually.aho the 5,000 voted to the great Admiral. The estate purchased for the Reverend William now yields 5.500 a year; therefore the present holder of the title receives 11,500 per annum from the ration, simply because his grandmother happened to be the sister to the hero of Trafalgar.
