The Colonel had already taken leave of them, and had told Mrs. Annandale alone that he left Cecil aa his promised wife, which information had greatly pleaaed his kiua- woman, thoagh it had not very greatly astonished her. "What, teara, my little maid?" said the Colonel, with his bright gentle smile, as he put his arm round Alioe, and kissed ber once more. " A soldier's lassie Be brave and hopeful, my child, I dare say I ahall come back to Ridinghurst, after all."

But, when he had sprang into hia saddle and had gathered the reins in his hand, while Heetsr sat like a stata* awaitiag hia master'a word, Coloael McLeod glanced reoad, half pauaed, then, as if some thought had Btruok him, called to Cecil to come out. " Only a fancy," he said a little hurriedly, bending down to her and holding her hand in bis ungloved right band. " Yours most be the last tonch. Heaven watch over you, my heart's dearest ' They watched him down the long avenue aa far aa they coald aee and, ong after horse and rider were loet to sight, they could bear the click of the hoofs echoed back from the quiet country roads. Then Cecil turned back with her sister to the drawing-room and stood by the fire, looking down into the blsze, one hand rest- ing on Colin'a brown bead â€" be waa her charge now. Then waa a dreamy amile lighting op the large eyes, her thoughts were far enongh away from that spot, aod her heart was all sglow with a noble enthusiasm. " I shoald have thoaght yon would have been more sorry for Colonel McLeod's de- partare," said Alice diaoonaolately. " Why, you aro actually smiling " Cecil turned to her sister with a half start, aa though ahe had been awakened from a dream. ' ' Was I T" she said. And then she stoop- ed over Colia, and her bright hair fell hke a veil of gold over her soft clear cheek. "Don't you know, Allie, how the High- land women used to send off their soldiers to the wars V Bnt Alice made no answer. Shs did not understand Cecil in the least. "McLeod! Ah, by Jove, this is the jollicat thing a fellow can aee " was the eameat hearty greeting of Lord Kennedy when, after a day's continuous duty, the Colonel sat in his room writing. Colonel McLeod had not seen Lord Ken- nedy till now, and, as that young officer burst into his aparUnant almoat without the oeremoay of kwMkiafb he roae quickly and advanced to meet him with ontatretched hand. " I declaro I could pitch my cap up in the air " cried Lord Keaaedy, ssating himself on the table. " The time aeema to pass like lead till we're off.

" Faaey my laather turning oat at four o'clock in tha morning to see me off last weak I There are plenty of Spartans smoag aodera womao."

Lord Kennedy rattled away about military subjects. The conversation lasted until a late boor, when the two men parted.

The tables of tailors are laden with the newest goods, and the mandate haa gone forth that there is to be an approach to more plainnoM of style. Nothing that msy be called loud is to be tolerated. As to the materials in imported goods, English snd Sc^ch suitings are to be plentital. 'fbe latest samples show great varieties of Mel- tons, woollens, Scoteh chevoits, basket gooda and diagonals. Meltons axe in all colors, and there are many atyles of mixed goods from which to choose. The colors ara to be generally more- som- bre, and certainly not so pronounced as here- tofore. Among the mixed goods ara some red and black, and with the novelties may be seen what is called an olive green. Tbe green is a delicato shade, and barely distin- guishable, and not enough to offend the most stanch Tory. In regard to abapes there ia to be a wide margin to auit the most varied tastes. Tailors agree that there is at present a good deal of individual aovereignty in dreca. A man with thin legs will not usually hold him- self np to ridicule by wearing tho old-fash- ioned tight pantaloona they used to call "gnu covers." Fashions are becoming more and more elastic, and the time has gone by when any fashion plate will be made an iron role for men. Single-breasted cutaways are to be worn, with an occasional three or four button cutaway where the wearer rebels against one button only. In spring over- coats the prevailing style is loose, buttoned np high, with a tendency to roll over the collars so as to show the silk lining and give a stylish appearance. Prince Albert coats are to be a leading faatcra, bnttoned up high in the neck. The vest will be high, without collar. Some of the yonng fellows show a dispesitio:! to rebel against tho Prince Al- bert coats as better fitted for more slderly persons. Coats for business suits are to be mads with small rolling collars to a great extent. Trousers are to be worn rather close fitting to the form of the logs, the bottoms small and shapely. Young men who aspire to lead the faahion favor tight trousers. The tightners will not, however, be carried to an extreme. Tailors ray that a custom is rapidly sprcidr ing among fashionable men to leave orders for clothing with merely general instractions to "make it up according to thi' latest atyle.' This leaves it to t^e cutter's option or his knowledf;e of tho special tastes of bis customer to modify the style to suit particu- lar cases. For exact or extreme fashions there is a tendency to short coate as well as to tight trousers, to that the yoong men who follow the latest styles will present a very natty appearance. AU coaU are to be made ahorter. There is little change in dresa snita, except a tendency to make the coata shorter. 'The fact is that so few men can afford to wear ont a dress coit in a short time that there is positive and effectual re- bellion against any sudden or frequent chan- ges in that respect. Besides the olive green referred to there are among tbe novel colors blue and olive mixed, brown and olive, and other novel combinations of shades. Business suits for summer wear are to be made of blue Scotoh chevoits in skeleton form, rather tighter fit- ting than last year. As usual, most of the finer imported goods are imitated akiifuUy in cheaper qualities. A suit that costs $40 at a fashionable tailor's may be bought for SI5 in a cheap store. There is a great rush for clothes made to order at low rates, and many low. priced establishments have sprung up all over the city. â-  â€" 4.^ â€" â€"^ Common Sense in Advertising. (New York Post.) A model advertisement is designed to sat- isfy the rational demand of a probable cus- tomsr to know what you have got to sell. The Buucessfnl advertiser, therefore, ob- serves three rales First, he aims to fur- nish the information which the public wants; second, he aims to reach that part of the Jmblic whose wants he is prepared to satis- y and third, he endeavors to make hia in- formation aa easy of acquisition by tbe pub- lic as ponible. The commonest and handiest thing in the American family is the newspaper, and, as nearly all tbe shopping procoeas from the family, from ita need*, intelligence, ite taate, aod iU faahions, it follows that the tboaghtful and snooessfnl advertiser ap- proaches the family by this means. He does not waste bis money and bis time in loading his advertitiag-gnn and shooting itoffaky- ward in tbe streets, at all creation, on tbe chance that some willing customer may be going that way, and may be brought down; on the contrary, he takes account of tbe ad- vertising ammunition which he has on hand, and loads and pointe his gun throngh the columns of some repntable newspaper at the game he wants to hit. B»ides knowing that newspapera are tbe best mesns of sdvertiaing and how to pick cut the best newspapera for his purpose, the successful sdvertiser fully appreciates the importanca of persistent advertisindc. Mr. Bryant need to say that the great infioenoe of tbe preM depends for one thing upon iti power of iteration. Preaenting the same tubject in many forma, it finally wins at- teuiioa and acqaieaoenor. Uaed in thia thorough and syswmstio way, the advertis- ing columns of the newsp^ars ara as usef al snd essential to the raerehaat, aa nkeans of telUng the public what he haa to aelJ, aa the elerhs behind the counter ara to show his when the people eoaa to.exaiaine S^ The Kbadiveof Bgypt haa givaa orders to tha Graad Chief of tha Baligiaaa Corpora- thias that tha nirsatay kaawaastha *T)ea- aa*'aait haaeaforth aaaaa.

A riKH in Bremen haa the commission to make the uniforms for the army of the King of tbd Sandwich Isles.

The organizer of this force is Herr Hogemann, a native of Bremen, with whose services the King is mnch pleased. A.v Italian writer says thst our modern millionaires are nowhere in comparison writh some of his countrymen, as follows Mark Antony spent f 1,000,000,000 in merely sow- iqg his wild oats. Nero gave $100,000,000 io presents to bis friends. Heliogabalns gave a dinner that cost $200,000 the toilet of Agrippioa on a special occasion footed np to $1,500,000, and her box of jewels at home was worth $2,000,000. Parnell seems to have broken himself st laat Waa he from the first an honest agi- tetor, or a mere demagogne? Opinions differ. It wonld be difficalt to say which in miny respects. However much he loves his country, at anyrato be seems unwilling to run tbe lisk of anything like martyrdom for her sake. For all this we think Parnell was really in earnest to a certein extent at aoyrate in his efforts for Ireland, aod that his efforts, and the eflorto of others, will eventnally bear good frnit.

If certain rumors respocting the intolerable snffori'igs to which horned cattle are subject- ed dnriug their transport frour America to this country be founded on. fact, it is high time that tbe board of trade should turn ite s6r'oas attention to the subject. ' In all probability strenuous efforte will be, if they bave not already been, made by the society for the prevention of crnelty to animals to obtain official protection for the nnfertunate creatures doomed to enilure the horrors of a long sea voyage with tbe abambles as its goal, in order that English tobies may be plentifnl'y supplied with fresh beef. Under favorable weatfaer conditions a bullock passes ite time on board ship in a chronic condition of fear and miaery but " when the stormy winds do blow," and the vessel rolls heavily, the agonies it suffers are such that their mere contemplation for a few seconds might melt a heart of stone. That wilful torture shoald be permited t) aggravate the already un- bearable torments to which a aevere eale con- demns these wretched beaate, appears incred- ible; yet we have been assured that exped- ients of such dire cruelty that we foroear from shocking the public by describing them are mercilessly put in practice in order to com- pel oxen, rosddened by sheer physical pain, to leap overboard when the movement of the vessel is so violent as to prevent the poss- ibility of their being dealt with by the craw. It is a significant fact that, within the last few days, a veesel whioh left tbe shores of America with a cargo of five hundred and ninety-foar live bullocks should have arrived in the port of Londoa with only for^ five of ita horaed paanngers, the other five hundred and forty -nine having periahad during the voyage "in oonaequeoes of heavy weather."
