CHAPTER. 1. * Well, Mary,' said Charles Leu-is, to li'iB young wife, who bad returned, afier an absence of a few weeka, from an exploring expfdiiion, *1 think I have fonud a place which will iuit us bmh.' .-e ' Where is it ?' iii<iiiiretl Mary. * In Bloomfleld, about flfty miles from here. Thereia not a single store within four miles, aiui every jierson I mentioned the subject lo, is of the ojiinioii ttiat I cannot Tail to ilo a gooil buainess.' < And can a suitable houde be obtained V * Ves. one that will exactly suit you j were yon to .lee it, you would imagina that it was built on pur[X}se for us. It Is white, with green blinds, aud is literally embowered among trees and shrubbery.' * .Kto there any flowers ?* * Plenty of them. They border all the paths, and as for roses, judging from the number of bushes, we may, if we please, have a '¦' feast uf rosea," as they do iii the East.* * According toyoar description, it must he an earthly Paradise. When shall we go V ' Next Monday, if you can he ready as soon as ilien.* ' I could, if necessary, be ready before that time,' was Mary's reply. Though Mary's ectpectations had been raised high, she was not liisappointed wilh the appear¬ ance of lheir new residence. It was exactly what she wiahed. By the close of the week everything was arranged, and all the apart¬ ments wore a neat, qxiici, home-look. Mary had never been accustomed to do housework, having before her marriage taught school for a livelihood ; but she had, whenever opportuni¬ ty presented, been a close observer, and bade fair, with a little experience, to make & most excellent house-keeper. Though her husband thougiit that it would be impossible for her lo get along without, at least, a girl of a dozen or fourteen years to assist her, she told him that sbe could atany rate make tho attempt, as they oould not affoid to increase their household ex- I'enses. * Don't }'ou think, Charles, that I am nearly equal to Irving's Mary ?' said she, one day, as for the dessert she placed some flne strawberries and cream upon the table. ' 1 am sure I do. How very fragrant they are.' * Tbat is, partly, because iliey are fresh from tha vines.' * Who gathered ihem for you :' * * No one—I gathered tbem myself.' * But we havo none in the garden." * I found thesa in the fields.* * Let you find them where you wouli, ihey are delicious, I believe that they are auperior in fiavor to those which are cultivated. Did'nt you find it fatiguing to rove round the fields af¬ ter them ?' * I was a little tired by the time I reached home, but I .ihall enjoy my reading and sew¬ ing sll the better for it this afternoon.' ' Speaking of reading makes me think of the magazine I took from the post-office as I came home. Among the contributors, beaides onr favorite Mrs. Stephens, I noticed the name of Miss Klla Rodman, the author of " Tha Valley Farm," and several other flne writers * I'm glad the magazine has come, Tha lit¬ tle room we have fitted up for a library will be a delightful place to read in. Those maples shad^ the windows, aad create acool,delicioiu gloom, whilfl tho rusiling of their foliage makes eiaciJy the right kind of music, for one who wishes to read or indulge in revery. You must not be surprised if the jural influence by whicb I am surrounded, proves eo itxspiring, that I shall cne of these days, write something for Peter¬ son's Magazine. Doa't you thmk tha: the name of Mary Lewis would look very welt on the list of original coiairibuiors V ' Admirable.' ' I wish you could .itay at home this after¬ noon ond read with me.' ' Oh, never fear for me,' said be, gaily, * as lung as 1 can meaaure calico and tibbons, an finploymenl which is delighlfully varied by weighing sugar, coffee, and tea.' CHAPTER 11. Hulf an hour afterward, Mary bad tteatod herself uear ihe open door of the lihiary, whence, whenever she chose she could step out upon a smooth green terrace. She had jusi* commenced cutting open the leaves of tho magazine, wlien she was somewljat startled hy a voice that said, * You are the lady of the houae, I take it.' - Looking up she saw a lati and lean, yet vig¬ orous looking woman standing at tho door. ' I am,' was Mary's answer. * And my name is Pickins, and as I am your nearest neighbor, 1 came right in without knock¬ ing. I aet out to come and see jrou yesterday afternoon, but Mrs. Hopson came in and hin¬ dered me. Suspecting she had come wiih the intention ot spending the afternoon, Mjry inviled lier to take ofl' her things, and then conducted her into the parlor. ' This is my work," said Mrs. Pickiiis, open¬ ing a large bundle as soon as she had seated lierself. ' I've a large family lo sew for, and have to improve every minute. I was telling i\Irs. Hopson, yesterday, tbat if I was in your place I should'ni be able to find an airthly thing to do a tciiih part of my lime. I should be ollteged to sil and fold my hands.' * I read, or cultivate the flowers, when I have no work, which I am obliged to do,* eaid Mary. * Well, I know a body can read when worat comes to worst, but it is terrible dull mnsic, according to my way of thinking. And as for flowers, Ihough I don'i say but what they look pretty enough, thero is no proflt in ihem— they'll neither give you meat, drink, nor cloth- mg. Mra. Hopson and I were wondering be¬ tween ourselves, why you didn't keep a cow, taking care of the milk, and making a few pounds of butter now and then, would be pret¬ ty little work for you, and help to fill up your lime. And you haven't a mitt* of spinning to do neither. Well, as Mrs. Hopson andl said, it's a myitcry liow any body that has no more to do than yon have, can gfrt through the day with any kind of comfort:. I believe, if anyihing, itis worse than tohave: as much to do as I have. Only see whata sight of work I've biongbi wilb me, and there's not a siitoh uf a but that I may safely say we are anffering f'T.

As she had anticipated, it cakes and custards. When sho roso to go into required the utmost exertion of her skill to lbe kilchenin order to perform her taskjshe re-, make them look decently. She worked with ipiesied Mrs. Pickins to excuse her absence. unremitting assiduity, and wns barely able to * The land,' said her gueil, * I hope you don't think that I am going to stay here atone while : yoii are getting supper. I*m going to keep you company, for I wouldn't have you think that I'm fiO proud that I can't sit in the kitchen.' Mury remonsiraied as far as politeneas would permit, for, considering herself, as yet, a merp novice in the culinary art, she did not care lo be subjected to the scrutiny of such an adept as J^Iis. Pickins declared herself to be, during the performance of her onerous task. Remon¬ strance, however, to such a determined woman as Mra. Pickins, proved vain, and taking Sally's apron to licm, because as she said, ' it was more curltsser work than anything else sbe had todo,* she fi>nowed Mary into the kitchen. Vou find the oven to be first rate, don't you?' said she. * That's the name Dorcas Gn'ggs used to give it. Mrs. Grovsner, that nsed to live here, was an ailing woman, and used very often to have to get Dorcas to help her.' ' I haven't tried the oven yet,' replied Mary, * I use a cooking stove.' ' Do tell if you do ? Well, I couldn't contrive what kind of a piece of furniture that was. It's tho first thai was ever in tho place. I've heard tell of *era—can'l think it's possible lo bake anylhing ao well in 'em as in an old fashioned brick oven. Come, now, supposing you should go and heat the old oven just for tbe notion of I can tell you all about it, and perhaps you wonl have anoiher si\ph a chance fora long time.' But as Mary's wish to please wns not strong enough to overcome her reluctance to trying the experiment of heating the oven for the first time> she declined in a quiet, yet so decided a manner, that Mrs. Pickins did not urge the matter any further. She kin'dled a fire in the stove, and hoped that when the room became uncomfortably warm, Mrs. Pickins would tako refuge in ths parlor, as ihe consciousness of being watched in every movement perplexed her e.xceedingly, and rendered her task doubly oppressive. Sho had underrated her guest's powers of endurance, when iried in the balance against her curiosity. She endured the heat with stoical fortitude, and evidently had no thoughts of withdrawing. Atlast Mary ventur¬ ed 10 suggest, that as the stovs made the room very warm, she would he much more comfor¬ table in the parlor. * WeU, if you can bear the heat 1 guess 1 can,' was her reply. ' I am obliged to bear it,* said Mary. ' Well, I don't oare for that. I wouldn't have you think I'm so selfish as to go off and leave you here all sole alone. You have to mope here by yourpelf full enough, without a aingle person to speak to, and besides, I iove lo watch the manmuvres of young women when the first set up housekeeping, to see how they carry sail, and if they bid fair to make good, smart wives. Tbough Mary, from the first, had a kindof vague suspicion that curiosity was the real came why Mrs. Pickins ao pertinaciously insis¬ ted on remaining in the kitchen, ibis .uncere¬ monious announcement of her motive, by giving tangibility to her surmises, heightened her em¬ barrassment to such a degree that she found ii impossible to recollect whether she had put the requisite quaniity of soda into the cakes she was preparing or not. This put her to the ne¬ cessity of trying a smell cake by iiself, also, to renew the fire, that tlie oven might longer re¬ tain the proper degree of heat. As the cake refused to rise, she found that shc had omitted the soda altogsther, which elicited from Mrs. Pickins tho savory admonition, * to mind and always have her thoughts about her.* As soon as ihe cakes were fairly Jn the oven, * I want to know,' said Mre. Pickins currants ain't big enough to stew 7" I * I don't know,' replied Mary, * fur as wc \ have had plenty of strawberries, I haven't no- j ticed them pariicularly.' I 'Iguesstheyare,'said Mrs. Pickins. * Come, supposing you and I ahould go into the garden finish lhem by the time it was neceasary to prepare tea. Some sowing of her own that could not well be dispensed with, whicb, with a tittle reading, she had intended to employ herself during the afternoon, occupied lier time till late in tbe evening ; and tben she was far too weary to have any wish to read. The pil¬ low was more attractive than the absorbing pages of ' Julia Warren.* The following day, her household duties, as usual, consumed alt her time till dinner. When she again took her seat in the library with tbe magazine in her band, shs found it impassible to give herself tip to the full enjoyment of its pages. Rows of unworked, ravelly buttonholes seemed to form a kind of spectral frame-work round the columns of neat, clear letter-press. She started nervously at the slightest noise, for ahe was haunted with a preaentiment that even then there were lots of buttonholes on lheir way, which by some means she would be in-: veighed into working, though she had made up her mind to refuse in the most positive man¬ ner. * Tite buttonholes have arrived,' said she, to heraelf, atarting quickly from her chair at the sound of a low, moilest knock at the front door. She went and opened it, and beheld a pretty, rosy-cheeked girl of eighteen. She held a small bundle in her hand, and Mary was sure that there were unworked bmionhol^B in it; yet the girl's blue eyes beamed so modestly, and her voice was so low and sweet when she said, * I believo this ia Mrs. Lewis,' that Mary could not help inviting her to walk in, not coldly and ceremoniously, but in a manner so warm and sincere that the bine-eyed beauty's courage at once revived. Mary insisted on her taking off her bonnet and spending the afternoon. She soon after¬ ward took some sowing to encourage her young guest, (whose name sho found was Ella Gray) to undo the roll of snowy linen, which, at her entrance, she laid on the table. She soon took it thence, and Mary observed that her color heightened, and her hands trembled as she un¬ rolled it. ' Though I dislike vary much lo trouble you,' said she, taking up a shirt-sleeve, which was nearly made,' I have taken the liberty to call in order to request you to teach me how to make the buttonhole. But I mustn't learn on this,' and restoring the sleeve to tho bundle, she produced a piece of cloth, on w-hich were sundry longiiudinal perforations intended for buttonholes, all of which wero decided failures. Sbe was right in thinking that they did not look fit to appear on the wristband of the sleeve sbe bad just exhibited. 'These are the best I cnn do,' said she, * and you see what miserable looking things they are, and thsy will be so unmercifully criticised by Edward's sister This allusion to Edward brought another blush to her cheek, deeper than before. * Do you think it will be possible for mo to team to make buttonholes as nice as you can, Mrs. Lewis V * Oh, yes,* leplieit Mary, < witli a liitio in¬ struction you will be able to make them quite as well.* * Do you think so ? I am very glad, for Ed¬ ward's sisters are ao nice, and have laughed at him so much about being obliged, when we are married, to come to them to have elt his nice sewing done. He wiahed me to show them; that they were mistaken, by making some nice shirts for him. I have taken a great deal of paina with them, and have aucceeded pretiy well, I believe, till I came to ibe buttonholes. i Thay were luo bard for me.' I * I 3usi>ect you didn't begin right,' naid Mary, ' "^^ j and so it proved. By carefully followinglhe di¬ rections of her instructress, her sixth bnitonholo, she fett aure, was quiie equal, if nol superior, to what .Tane Horton, Edward's eldest sister, conld work.

Wken Mary re¬ iurned to the kitchen, she was surprised not to see Mrs. Pickins. Here I am in tlie store-closet,' said she. 'I'm hunting round for a pan or something of the kind to set the dish of cucrants in the cooir— There you needn't come—I've found something nt last. What a grand, good provider your hus¬ band is,' said she, as ahe placed the dish of currants into a basin of cold water. ' While I was in the store-cloaet, I took the liberty to look round a little, and saw that there was plen¬ ty of everything hear* could wish.' Jn a faw minutes Mr. Lewis arrived. While at the table, Mrs. Piciins gave him a feithful account of the household labor she was oWJged to perform * week in aad week out.' She alMo averred, that had she not seen it done with'her own eyes, she could not have believed it possi¬ ble that such complete cakes conld have ever been baked in a stove oven.

CHAFTSE III. The nexl day Mary had starching and ironing to do, which, besides the cooking and other neoessary tasks, kept ber closely employed till dinjier time. The weather was uncommonly WBcnif 8nd:by the time she was ready to sit down in the afternoon, she had seldom in her whole life felt so mnch fatigued. As on the preceding day, she sealed herself near the open door of the library, wilh the magazine io her hand} she could not help thinking that she had earned, ths right to ^ead it. She had finished cutting open the leaves, and jead abouthalf of ' Julia Warren/:wh0n she heard some one tap¬ ping at the back-^oor* Oa, answering thdsoroe- what noisy summons, she saw a large, awk- ward-looking.boy, with a.biindle in hia band.

This, while it some¬ times amused her, atil! oftener annoyed her; the more so, because she really had bo much to do, as to suffer more or less from fatigue every day. One woman, when compassionating her on the subject, like the Widow Bedott on a differ¬ ent occasion, declared that if aho had nothing more to lake up her timo than she had, she ahould be tempted to commit * self-suicide.' That Maty might not be beset by auch an aw¬ ful temptation, she told her that she guessed she ahould send her a cap and collar to work. *It would,' she said,'be sweet, preity little innocent work, to amuse her with when ahe was all alone.' * So it would,' said Charles Lewis, who eO' lered in eeason to hear this last sentence,* but as ill, or perhaps good luck would have it, Mary has got to make a dozen shirta for me, and I cao hardly tell what beside. You see, there¬ fore, that working the cap and collar is out of the question.' La, well,' aho replied, * if she only has some kind of employment to keep her from being low spirited, ir's all one to me I'm sure. I wasn't governed by any selflah motive. I despise be¬ ing ai aelfiah aa Mrs. Pickins is. I wish, though, I hadn't gone to the expense of buying the mus¬ lin.
