THEWIFEi"MISSIOir.
BV THE AUTHOR OF "THE VALLEY FARM." I.
The clock had long since struck midnifihl yet StiU the young wife waited for her husband.
It was tho firei time he had ever loft her alone in the evening. They had been married three montbs,—threo happy, blissful months, the young wife had thought til! now !
" I will not bejn till late," he had said on leaving after dinner. "Twn or three of my old bachelor friends are in town, and I have promis¬ ed to take eupper with ihem. Itwould be as well, perhaps,*' he continued, glancing anoiher , way, "not to wait up for me.'' j
At first the evening was lonely as she had ex¬ pected. She brought out her husband's slippers, arranged his dressing gown, and drew his favor¬ ite arm chair up before tho fire. " He wiii not be out late, after all," she said, as she did this. "He thinks to surprise me.'* And smiling to herself in the consciousnesa oi having all ready for him, she sat down, took up the last book he had given her, and began quietly to read.
Eight, and then nine o'clock, struck, when finding he did not come, she rose with a sigh, and laid aside her volume. "He will be late after all,'' she said- " Bull suppose he has so much to talk about.*' And with this excuse for his delay, she sighed again, and after awhile re¬ sumed her book.
The young wife was still full of romance- Idolized by her family, and with no experience of life beyond the loving circle of her early home, -she bad married with the too common dream ihal existence was never to be darkened by a cloud. Her husband was from a distant cily, a man of fortune, finished in his manners, and with a singular handsome person. Willingly she had ieft ali to follow him. But now, sitting thus alone, a feeling gradually arose in her heart, that ho ought not tohave left her. She wai ashamed oi it at first, and strove to conquer it; she had no right to expect bim, she said, till ten o'clock ; it waa natural, perhaps, for husijands to wish Occasionally to spend an evening with their bachelor friends.
But it was a weary time till ten o'clock. Shi often found her thoughts wandering. At last the clock fllruck.
" Now he will surely come," she exclaimed, throwing down her book ; nnd rising sho went to the window in order to watch for him. It was bright moonlight without, and every one ap¬ proaching could bo distinctly seen. But still hor husband did not come.
For nearly half on hour she remained looking out. Gradually her feelings changed. " He does not love mo aa he did," sho said, " or hc wouid'nt neglect me so."
Finally, yielding to pride, she closed the ahut-^ ters, and again took up her book. ** When he comes in,'' she said, "he shall find me reading, as ifhis abaence had not concerned me."
But ahe could only pretend to read. Her cyo^ followed the characters while her thoughia wero with her husband. Again and again ahe turned back, determined to keep the sense in her mind, yet aa often aho discovered, after a page or two, that sho had utterly failed.
The clock Blriking eleven roused her. Her ihoQghts now took a new turn. Something must have happened,ahe eaid, and she reproached heraeU for having heen vexed. Perhaps he had been takon aick on his way home. Perhaps he had been run over. Perhaps, for she had hsard ofsuch things, he had becn knocked down, rob¬ bed, and left senseless and bleeding.
These fears having once taken hold of her, she could not rest quietly in the house. Going to the atreet door, sho stood there, unborineted eagerly looking up and down tho street. Had aho known where to go, ahe would have set forth at once; but ahe reflected that, if ahe left the house, her husband might be brought back in her absence. The streets were now almoat desert¬ ed, and the moon had sunk behind the roof-tops, so that silence and comparative darkness filled the long and ghostly thoroughfare. But occa¬ sionally a step would be heard approaching. As It slowly came nearer and nearer her auspenso wouldbe ahnoBt intolerable. Yet when it. ar¬ rived, and the form ofa stranger only was seen, she could have welcomed even suspense again.
At last the watchman come along, eyeing her so curiously that. ahe withdrew, but only *to walk up and down the hall almoat frantically.— Every momont she expected to see her hua-.' band brought home a corpse. Her imagination picturedhiminadoxondreadlulways; crushed disfigured, bloody; perhapa,BiiUsensible.though imable to speak; perhaps, cruel, cruel fate epeechlesa forever, and with eyea cloBed in deaih Tears and sobs aUernated as she traversed the hall andparlor, wringing her hands, and praying with wild, imploring words-
Thua midnight came. She went again to the door, for she could not keep away. The moon waa now down, and the Btreet entirely dark; the roll of carriages waa heard no more; not even a step echoed on the silence. She passed out, and sumding on the stoop, alrove, by sha¬ ding her eyes, to peer into the gloom- Bt^'taiill there were no signs ol her husband, Hef anxi¬ ety now rose to poaithe iagpny.

In thiasiateofmind,,more than two additional hours passed. At hat, when three o'clock had nearly came, a atop was -heard*ih* the atreet.— The wife was already at the door, and listened with suspended pulie as the echoing tread ap¬ proached. Was it" hia? Yes, and with thia conviction ahe sprang forward.
But what makes her, all at once, recoil?— Why does ahe start back, her face blanched, her figure motioiileea as if turned to stone 7 , She has aeen a maudlin countenance, which is not thst of her husband, and yet is; and, on the instant, the dreadful truth flashes upon her ihat she hasmarried a drunkard. II. "What the deuce isthe matter with you?" said Mr. Herenand K^his young wife, two days afterward. "Can't a man get a civil word, or even a look out of you?" And finding that there was no reply, he continued; "Since.I must speak plainly, you're sulky, I suppose, about the way I came home the other night, But egad! you must have been tied pretty tight¬ ly to your mother's apron strings, if yon have nol learned that such things are small matters." Mr- Herenand was rich, and well educated, and had always moved in what is called "the beat society." But hehad been the furthest possible irom what is characterized as a "domestic" man. His molher had long been dead, and his sisters being gay, fashionable girls, there was nothing lo keep him at home in the evening. Hia time consequently had been spent between the thea¬ tre, billiard-saloon, and club-room. Convivia' in his habits, he not" tmfrequently indulgod to excess in wine; but as all his gay friends did the same, he thought little of it.
Of women in the abstract he had no very high opinion. What hehad seen of them had been chiefly among the worst of the sex. He mar ried his wife principally for ber pretty tace, and had thought himself a miracle ol devotion, be¬ cause, forthreo whole montha, he had never gone out in the evening, except with her. It is true that a round of social entertainments, in¬ tended to welcome the young bride to a strange city, had monopolized so many of these evenings, that, on iheir fow disengaged ones, ho was glad to stay at homo in quiet. A iortnight'a cessa¬ tion of ihe parties had innuied him however.
The young wife had been educated to believe intemperance the vilest of vices, and, therefore, when sho saw her husband inebriated, horror and disgust seized her by turns. At first ahe felt as if she could never forgive him- But her woman's heart began, at last, to plead in his" fa¬ vor; nnd she rose from her sleepless couch per¬ suaded that it would be cruel not to pardon him, if he showed penitence, especially as it was probably his first offence.
Poor thing I She was destined to be bitterly- deceived. She could not avoid a certain con¬ straint in her manner, when her husband de¬ scended to breakfast, at a late hour* This lie noticed, and took offencoat. He sat down sul¬ lenly. The meal passed in silence ; and when he had finished, he rose and_ left the house with¬ out a word.
Mrs-Herenand thought, for awhile, she would die from mortification anti rage. In her days of courlship, the slightest shade upon her face had been sufficient to awaken her lover's anxiety.— Was it for this she had left her loving family? Had sho exchanged a mother's care for neglect and insult ?
She had a high, proud heart, and she resolved that the criminal should bitterly repent his con¬ duct. Accordingly, when he came home to dinner, she had nothing to say, beyond the ne¬ cessary phrasea of the table. A statute of ice could not have been more repellantthan she, in her cold, angry dignity. "
Mr- Herenand looked up with aomo surpriao. Educated as he had been, hc could not compre¬ hend what ho had ddne to merit either the re¬ serve of tho morning, or the present still more chiliins demeanor-   In turn he grew angry-
Two days had passed, when his rage, as wo have seen, had lound vent in worda.
Mrs- Herenand, meantime, was a thousand fold more indignant than at first.
" Sir!" she said drawing herself up haughtily "speak respecilully of my mother, al leasl.— Whatever yon say, or do to me, I'll not havo her insulted.'- The husband gave a low, prolonged whistle, " How dure you?" cried his wife, passion¬ ately stamping her foot. ." Didn't I tell you I'd nol have my molher insulted? Nor shall you look at mo in that insolent manner either ?"
A.n oath arose lo the husband's lips, and even found expression though he would have consid¬ ered it very ill-bred lo swear at any woman but his wile. He muttered also somfething about termagants, and what sort of a home they made for a man.
" Whai'fj that you say ?'' said his wife, now thoroughly aroused. " Someihing about mak¬ ing a man's home a , I  won't speak the
wicked word. Nice language ior a lady's cars," she continued, contemptuously. "But il ia such, I auppose, as you learn from your boon companions."
She paused, but he made no answer. In fact he was cowed for a moment. Ho had thought ho had married a Desdemona. But hc was ask¬ ing himself now if it was not raihera Lady Mac^ beth.
" What else ought a man's house to bo," she resumed, passionately, " if thiaia-thewaywivea aro treated ? I wonder there's a quiet home, any where," she continued, her eyes blazing: and she broke off abruptly with a bitter laugh.
It was well she did,-for alio waa becoming hysterical. Poor, motherless, inexperienced child, almost frantic with outraged love and shame, wo can scarcely censure her that she ra¬ ved thus.
But she had done incalculable harm. Her re¬ proaches had cut to the quick. In his then atate of mind, the culprit was not unwilling to hav.e any excuse for anger.
" Well then, madam," ho said, colly button¬ ing up his coat, " if you don't choose to make my home comfortable, I'll go where I can find one-'*
And with a brutal oath, he wheeled about,, and left the room--
V She htirst into a paaaion of tears^ FalUrig on her bare kneea,; ahe solemnly :pledged herseH to iecoyerlierhuaband, ifaoTlBngo in her conduct coald do it.
: Had the young wife been less truly a woman she would never have come to this conclusion,— She would atill have hardened her heart. But the diviner qualities were large and vital in her character, and thesehad triumphed at laat over the moro atubborii and haughty elements of her nature.
" Father in heaven." she cried, "I acknowl¬ edge ray error. Thou hast'set the example ih tjiy dear Son>of measureless forbearance and love. .Shall I, to whom so much haa been for¬ given,not forgive also? ShullI drhre the hus¬ band, I have sworn to love and honor, into cour¬ ses more evil than before, and only because he has wronged ma once ;—when Thou hast died for those who have wronged Thee a thousand times, and who cruelly mock Thee sliU ? Oh ! laee now," she cried, "that itis more Chrisl- hke to act the diviner part, and to win back the erring by the very magnitude of our loye for them- Here then I dedicate myself (o this task," ahe continued, solemnly, lifting her streaming eyes to heaven, " if Thou wilt but sanctify the act nnd give mo atrength I need to persevere to the end."
She-rose a changed being. Tho mystery of life had been revealed to her. She knew her mis¬ sion on earth, and prepared, martyr* like logo forward in it. She had recognized the Cross aho was to bear-
IV. *"' And it proved a Cross indeed! at first her al¬ tered, demeanor produced no impression upon her husband except contemptous surprise- A lesa selfish, or loss haughty man, would have been easily melted by her meekness, her for¬ bearance, her evident efibrts to please. But his heart, never very gentle, had bocomo like the '* neiher mill-stone." He had expected a slave m a wife, and finding himself disappointed had vowed to break lior heart. So his feelings were those of congratulation, rather than affection, at these signs of what he considered her submis¬ sion. Sardonic as it was, there is no cxaggera- tion in thii. There are such men—brutes, al¬ moat devils.
At times his wife almost gavo up. Many were the bitter hours she spent alone in tears m fae^ chamber. Often she arose from a sick bed to dress herself in his favorite eolora and welcome him with a cheerful smile. She selected for the table the delicacies sho knew ho liked best. - She informed herself on the subjects sbo thought would be most apt toplease him. She played his favorite airs. Occasionally he would relent a little, hard and resolute as he was ; but it was only a momentary gleam of sunsihine.
Without her Bible sho would havo given up-— But aho found, the moro she studied ita apirit, that if love would not win back her husband an¬ ger would fail more utterly. The whole scheme of redemption roso before her, not only as tho great fact of the Gospel but as the type, to all time, of the means to recover the lost. " Sure¬ ly," she said, " if Christ submitted to be led liko a lamb to the slaughter, and ail to win a degra¬ ded and fallen world back to Him, ought not I sufi'er all for my husband in hopes to touch his heart also."
And then aha would add. " Hc is obdurate yet, because I irritated him so long. Had I be¬ gan earlier, he would havo yielded before now." Cruel as Mr- Herenand was, ho would,have been eoftened, if it had not been for the influ¬ ence of one of his wifo'a own sct. This aban¬ doned creature had exercised a controlling influ¬ ence over him previous to his marriage ; but on that event he had shaken off the connexion; on¬ ly however, to resume it on tho first quarrel with his bride. And now this vile wretch sought, by every act, to widen the breach, undoing, day by day, all that the wife had done.
" Can you go with me to r—,'* aaid Mrs.
Herenand, in her gentlest tones.   " I havo re-
III.
That night Mr. Herenand came home intoxi¬ cated again. .The young wife did not ait up lor him this time; but she paced her chamber till he came, wringing her bands; and when ahe heard him stumble into bed, in the adjoining room, ahe burst into tears of passionate grief and rage Her heart wes torn by confiicting emotions all this whiloi Sho began to fear sho had dono wrong, but her pide would not let her acknowledge it even to herself, much less to him.
In tho morning, when ahe woke from a fever¬ ish sleep, she learned that her husband had aU ready gone out. Sho aaw nothing of him that day. Hc came home, aomo time before mid¬ night ; but ae she had already shut herself up in her chamber, there woa no opportunity for ex¬ planation, even if he had wished it.
Thus thinga went on for days, weeka and oven months. Oh! what^miserable household it was, Qt least for one,forthe other waa rarely-ot home. The young wife would not yield, for whenev¬ er ahe thought of it, Ihe fact originally he waa in fault reeuned to her, atealmg her heart aa well aa blinding her judgment. Meantime ehe had to keep her sorrow aecret. It wae not a grief that could be told. Yet often her heart almoat broke under it. Thua again her proud apirit rose; " She did not care," she said to herself, "hehad treated her, brutally, yee! bmlally; and he might go where he pleased do what he pteoaed, it was nothings it ehould be nothing to her. Other men might kill their wives by auch conduct. Thank heaven ! aho was made o stouter siuflT.    .,
But gradually her strength gave way in this struggle. She spent half her time ih'tears. Of¬ ten she waa templed Vo fly to her mother, so much did ahe yearn for sympathy. At laat she remembered her Bible/which, for many yeara, she.had almost neglected.- 'The gentle spirit of that book, particularly of the four gospels, in¬ sensibly melted her.andcha'nged the whole ciir-, rent of her thoughts.'    V '
One: night, ae. ehe lay .on her pillow, .an in: ward monitor whispered to her.

ceived a note saying that my friend Mrs. Ar¬ lington, is dangorouflly illand wishes tosec me." Tho place she mentioned was on tho river, soma twenty miles from tho city. It would take only a day, and for a moment Mr, Herenand was tempted to say yee. For several days he had been touched by his wife's meekness, even almost to changing hia conduct. But just as he was on the point ofagreeing, he remembered that hc had an engagement to play a game o*^ billiards for a bet, that very morning.
"^ No, Annie," he said though with evident regret, " I can't go."' It was the first time, for months, that he had used any but hor lost namo in addressing her; and it almost unnerved her- "But if you'll take the cars on returning,*' he added, kindly, "I'il come for you."
" Thank you," (altered the wife. She could say no more, for- her heart was full—full of gratitude to God and of visions of a happy fu¬ ture-
The inralid, however, was so loath to part with-Mrs. Herenand, keeping hold of her hand and asking her new questions continually, that the cars started before Mrs. Herenand reached the depot. There was a steamboat, which left half an hour later, but the disappointed wifoi though she availed herself of this to return could not keep down the rebellious regrets that her friend had prevented her from meeting he^ husband.
"Ho will be angry," she said. "Appearan" ces willbe^ against me, and he will hardly wai* for an explanation. If it had happened when all was well between us, the differance would not have beon so great. But now I fear he will not even come home.''
She was filled with these thoughts, and was restraining her tears with difficulty, whon about halfway to the city, tho boat stopped at a land¬ ing. There was a largo hotel there with spacious grounds about it, celebrated as a resort tor gay partiea from tbe city. Looking up, at hearing boisterous laughter, what was Mrs. Herenand's amazement to behold her husband evidently somewhat flushed with wine, leading onboard a female, whose free demeanor and showy style of dress betokened too well her character.
Yea! the husband after playing his game of billiards, during which he had drank freely of champagne, had received a note from this bad woman urging him to accompany her on an ex¬ cursion and dine at the ¦ hotel. He had been persuaded, in an evil hour, to go; and was now more excited with wine than before. Mra. Here¬ nand waa not unknown by sight to this vile creature, who now fixing her bold eyea on the poor, fainting wife, gavo a scornful laugh as ahe swept past, holding the husband tight to her arm.
The victim of this inault, the innocent wife, thought, for a moment she would have died.— Indignation and ahamo racked her heart. Then consciousness fled, for nature was too weak tor the struggle, and she sank back fainting. By this time, however, the wanton had carried offi' the husband to the upper deck, so that he heard nothing ofthe incident. In fact not having hap¬ pened to aeo his wife at all) he laughed and jes^ ted with that exuberant mirth which incipient intoxication produces.
That night, aa Mrs. Herenand prayed in her deserted chamber, it required all her faith to make her believe in the justice of God. •* I who am, at least, striving todo right,*' ahe aaid bit terly, "to bo thrust aside for this creature—oh! it is too much." But prayer brought relief.— ^Sho thought of the words of the Litany, " By thine agony and bloody sweat, by thy cross and passion," and feeling that, with all her woes ahe had suffered nothing like to Christ, she bowed in repenta^ico.
V. To do Mr, Herenand justice, he felt acuiest ahame, when heheard tbat his wife had been on board fhe steamboat. But the tempter, who had led him astray, and who had siezed the first fiivorable opportunity to acquaint him ofa fact, which she knew could not be kept from him, and whitifa she sought therefore to turn to her own pui'posas'; this foul enchantress, we say,-was at haiid to destroy any good effect which might have resulted from it. Beaidea/the offender waa really ashamed to go home to his outraged wife. He did liot believe she could iorgive him. Thus, betwixt his own conscience and the artful hints ofhis companion, he was induced toplunge into aaerieaof orgies inwhichhe*Blrove at once to find amusement and to drown hia own r^proachea. And now a great atniggle arosia in'the heart of hia wife. Hitherto, the alienation of.herself and husband, though secretly whisperaA abou^ ba^ never been mado tbe - subject of general gos¬ sip;; but the conduct of Mr^^ fieretiand now niade. -hl^iaelf^ and^ -ifife .tiie' tEmxe, of remark eve^-^ whore.; i'TIiescandal even xeached intime tha> 4i^ant£it>vi7hJer8 Jdra.

¦ahould ahe atill wait hoping foc;ihe Erodigara. return? .These were the-queaiioria that passed themselves upon her. Pride, the wishes of her family, and often a feeling of despair; urged the former course. But the Bible told her that the latter was her duly, '' My mission ia to' aave rby husband," she wrote back to her brother, " not lo abandon hinij and God helping me, Twill stay to my post." There have been martyra, who have died at the stake, in whorh heroism and religion were not higher than in her.
Bui hor reply did not satisfy herrclaiivee.— Her brother was a man, who, aahe himself said, *' couldn't uiideratand such whimsical conduct.' Religion, in bia estimation, consisted in going statedly to church, in setting a. good example before the world, and in oppropriating a, liberal snm annually to charitable purposes.. He could travel the beaten road of acknowledged duties, but could neither uhdeftako loftier ones nor appreciate those who did. Ho thought bis sister as infatuated as her husband was guilty; and resolving that she should not, in hia own words, " make a fool of herself,*' he siarie'd to bring her home.
In this hie molher was the only one who even, attempted to oppose him. To her the conduct of her daughter was not wholly inexplicable.— Sho fell, that, in similar circumstances,-ahe might herself have acted, in the same manner.— But pity and love made her remonatrance with her son weak; and finally she aufiered him lo depart, with a message from herself to her child recdmmending her return
Against this new assault, which she had nol expected, Mrs. Herenand knew not scarcely what to do- Her angry and self willed Brother- not only positively insisted on her returning with bim but ao represented theirmother's sentiment's that the poor wife, who had hoped to be appro- ciated in that quarter at least, was led to believe that her surviving parent disapproved of her conduct. Fortunately her brother's position as a church member forbade the idea ofa recontre between him and her husband, else she would have had to fear a hostile meeting between them as an additional ingredient in her cup of misery. "I tell you," said he, vehemently, when he found that hissister still hesitated, " that you are , the general laughing stock. Even the mon say you want spirit; and the women call you a dunce- You can only do one thing worse, and that is to follow yohr husband."
" And I am about to do that," was tho mild reply- "I have just recoived sure intelligence thathe is lying dangerously sick, with a conta. , gious disorder, and that—that," sho could not, bring herself to pronounce the name that rose' to her lipa, but added, " in short he has been abandoned. I only waited for you to come in dear brother, to go to him.''
" Now this is madness," exclaimed her bro- ther, when he had partially recovered from hia amazement. " The villain should be left to die, like a rat in a hole ; and even that ia too good for him after what ho haa done to you." The sister burst into tears. " Oh ! brother," she cried " you a Christian, and speaking in that way. To whom much is given, from tbem much will be required. I feel that, but for me, my husband might never have gone so far astray ; and ifby flying to him now, I may recover him to tho paths of virtue, how Willi thank God."
As she uttered these words.with clasped hands her streaming eyes directed above, she locked a saint. Her brother was touched. He made no effort to remonstrate furiher with her; but, after a pause said :
" Since you are resolved, I will do all I can to avoid scandal- It is my duty to do so. Nay ! no expostnlation, I gave way to you in ono mat¬ ter, and you must and shall give way lo me in , this. I will have Mr. Herenand brought here. He shall be nursed in hisown houso, if his wile ia to nurse him at all. My sister,'' ho added, emphatically, "shall never contaminate herself by following him lo a wanton's home."
" Goat once, dear James,'' said the wife, not iruaiiiig herself to aay more. " Every min¬ ute ia critical. Aiiil I «ni blcoa juu, fJ OuU \vill, I know."
.: She spokeiheae; iaJsfc^VinordB exnUingly,:trium- pbantly; andwithavoi^s^spqwerful as.if in health. After ahe ceaaed, ahe remained a mo- inent, amiling at her husband ; her face already, he thoiight, shining'likeaii angel's.

Mr Herenand went forth a changed man. It was no temporary reform thai had been worked in him. Hia wife's death prevented 'all poaai- bility ofsuch a thing.
And now it was that thebetler qualitiea of his nature found a .legitimate field tor their eier- cisea. The aame head-strong characteristics; which had made him a leader in vice, rendered him. now that they were enlisted on the side of tho right, a dauntless champion of the latter. *¦
He felt that he had been doubly'"bought with a price,*' and that neither his life,,his time, nor his fortune was his own. -The talents that had b^en neglected, or perverted, were now called into full play; his energies were roused todo good; and, after due preparation he devoted himself lo the work of the ministry. He chose one qf our great cities for hia field. But instead of apeaking to build up a merely fashionable church, he preached the gospel in the lanes and alleys, preached it to ihe poor, to the criminal,to the Pariha- His liberal income enabled him to give largely lo build houses of worship where they were most wanted ; and many a sacred ed¬ ifice now attests his benevolence, as many a congregation recalls hia labors. When he had sown the good seed in one place, he went to an¬ other ; but it was always to the samo neglected classes that he preached. "There ia a Paganism growing up in our midst," he would aay, " among the thousands, who in our great cities, are virtually excluded from our costly churches. I leel this ia my peculiar field, and God helping me, I will have none other."   .
He, also, reader had found bis mission. Hun¬ dreds, perhaps thousands, are the ''sheaves'* he has garnered. His name is in all the churches.— But not the less' worthy was the work of ihe meek wife, who dying that she might aave him was the true cause, under God, of these blessed labors. In heaven, if not on earth, her services are known- HTien.like her, the fervent preach¬ er has finished his task, he also will be permitted to "go home."
VI.
It is not our purpose to dwell on tho terrible days, during which Mrs.;Herenand nursed her | husband in the crisis ofhis malignant disorder. At last the peril wtfs over.   The patient was pronounced convalescent.
The wife's prayers had been heard. The in¬ valid was not only recovering hia health, but was sincerely repentant, and had sought and been forgiven.
What a blissful day was that when for the first lime, the physician allowed the husband and wife to converse. Long before the patient had shown, by his altered manner, how deeply remorseful he was ; but when he came to assure his iong-sufiering wife of it in words, her happi. nesa repaid her a thousand fold for all she had suffered.
" How can you evor forgive mo ?'* These were his words. " When I was abandoned, wlien I should havo died in that horrid place, you, whom I had deserted came to my rescue, and saved my life. Oh! Annie, you havo made me,not only love and reverence you, but have given me a loftier notion ofall the pure of your sex. I thought women were either vile or flip¬ pant, as thousands think, Uving like I did when a bachelor: and hence my readiness to do injus¬ tice to you and quarrel at your remo&trances
* Do not talk in this way, dearest," she inter¬ rupted him to aay, "I was wrong too. I also have to ask forgiveness. But God at last open¬ ed my eyes and gave me strength to amend.— To him, not to me cive thanks.**
"I do, I do," fervently aaid Mr. Herenand.— You have taught me, love, by your conduct, that religion is not amere dead formality, as'the behaviour of ao many professors have led me to believe. I see now thatit is a living reality, teaching practical forgiveness, and sending even the wronged to seek out the wrong-doers among publicans and sinners, as in the days of Christ." Much more he said to the same effect. Indeed his wife had to keep out of the room a consider¬ able part ofthe time, leat she should bring back an excess of fever by tho excitement of too much talking. The intervals of forced loneftnesa the convalescent spent in reading tho Bible and in prayer; for the change in hia character waa rad- I ical; and for the first time in his life, hc, who had thought himaelf BO wise, began to acquire true wisdom. The gospel, which hitherto had seemed to him foolishness, as to the Greeks, waa now the power of God to salvation.
Suddenly Mrs. Herenand Began to aickcn.—' The causo was not long in doubt. Her disease waa proDOuneed to bo the aame as that of her husband.
Thia the convalescent had secretly feared from the first. An inward monitor had whis¬ pered lo him that he did not deserve so great a blessing as to have her spared to him; and he felt, therefore, when the annnouncement of her disorder was made, that she would never recov¬ er.   '
He was right. She did not- Her constitution, never strong, had been further weakened by tbe mental anguish ehe had undergone; and she sank rapidly and truly.
Oh! how her husband, in his now empty chamber strove with Heaven for her life. "Not that she ia not more fitted for heaven than earth," he cried, " not that I, sinner aa I am, do not deserve to lose her ; but that she may live to be made happy as far as I can make her so ' by my unbounded devotion. Have pity, Father of. Mercies."
But the inexorable decree had gone forth.— She had finiBhed her work, aho had fought the. good fight. Perhaps this ia what death meana, and that we are all called when our mission is done. Pray heaven we may not be found to have hurried our talent.
A day or two before the closing scene, the re¬ formed husband, resisting every, expostulation, insisted on heing carried into hia wile's room, and having a permanent bed provided for him there, ao placed that he conld see her all the time. _   '     /S- '    .
¦ "Farewell," were almost the last words ofthe Bweet martyr. "We ehall meet in heav¬ en- It is best to go. Ifl had lived, I might, perhaps, have failed, sometimeaV in ray  dtity
." Never, never," cried the husband.
," We don*t know. It iahumble to he weak. Only the grace of God can.makoaa strong. ..Oh! be atrong, try to be strongi deuisl,'* she added, with Budden energy.

Emisbation.—It ia interesting to observe the varioua human migratory movements now in progress in varioua quartera of the globe and to speculate ypon the great changes they must in¬ evitably produce. Until -Within a very brief period, emigration had but one-general tenden¬ cy, and that was westward: but now it reaches in all directions. First, we have the exiraordi- nary rush towarda Auatralia from England and the United States, and this, with the powerful incentive ofthe treasures.of the gold mines, and the eecure basis of a previously well founded colony, promises soon to build up an empire in the Southern Ocean. Then we have the curious and remarkable exodus of the Chinese to Cali¬ fornia, Jamaica and other places. This over¬ flowing empire, which so long seemed peculiarly locked up against the emigration of ita teeming milliona.appeara now to have undergone a change of policy, and emigrants aro pouring out of it to any part olthe world whero the luring promise nf work or money is hold out to them. What will bo the effect of this movement" on the desti¬ ny of California, it is difficult to conjecture.— California editors and statesmen, and, indeed tho mass oftho American emigrants, seem especial¬ ly averse to iheae Chinese, deeming them worth- less aa citizens, and entirely an incongruous ele¬ ment in the population of the State. There doea seem to be much ground forthis belief, in the acknowledged turbulence of the Chinese settlers their total inability to appreciate or live up to the maxima of self-government, and tho difficul- ly of making them understand our laws and customs. But, nevertheless, much of the oppo- Buioii ^, .!,-.«, m„Q, he ntiT;t,..t*>rf to the preju¬ dices and selfish inteiests of their eneimeB. Persona r«ceutly from California say that the Chinese there ore a most industrious, thrifty and ingenious people, performing any kind of work for which they are paid, and working for much lower wages than any other kind of Ubor ers in tho State. As for their faction fights and the despotism of their secret orders, they are probably no worse than the. unceasing warfare waged in this region between.''Corkonians" and " Fardownera.*' There is"anoiher emigra¬ tion, and that, too, by no means an insignificant one. It is that of the fugitive slaves from ihe United Statea.to Canada. They go at the raio of 2000 a year; a"H '.ready there are said to be thirty ihousand of them there. These self emancipated serfs aro said to cherish the mos^ biuer enmity towardaihe United Slates, and ihc growth ofsuch a population upon onr borders is in no wise desirablo. Then, too, we havo an emigration to Liberia.inferior in numbers to the above, but of much more importance, as the one has already founded a free and independent na¬ tion, while the other has merely built up an anomalous class. -Producing such au important result as this with such a very limited emigra¬ tion, what might not be expected if the move¬ ment were made more general among tbe free born blacks and the freed slaves? The tendency of both these movements seema to demonatrate that the relief of the United States from the con¬ tinual troubles occasioned by the presence among us of this black race can only be found in its exodus, to some other land-

Strange CreduUt^Pa $3,000 SwincQe. j
About twp weeks ago aa agentfeman farmer, i living in Madison county, was riding towards his home, not far distant, he observed a man and a woman by the road side, engaged in repairing tin-ware. A few'daya afterwards a woman cal¬ led at his; house, and after some* conversation, asked him if he did not recollect her. He re¬ plied that he did not. She then told him that she had aeen him on the road a few days before, andihat his appearance had made snch an im¬ pression upon her mind, that she was compelled to call and see him. Sho told him that ahe was an astrologer, and that she was well acquainted with its mysteriea. She saw at onco that ho waa an extraordinary person, and knew that he had been born under aparticuler planet, and that great things might be expected of nim. She then took from her apron a book which seemed to contain a number ot diogroma, figurea, 5cc., and read from it, in en unknown tongue, a few " hocus pocus " aontences, after which, closing it and putting it back into ita hiding-place, aoe went into the kitchen, bought a few pounds of butter of the wife of the gemleman, for whicb she paid liberally and went on her way. .A day or two afterwarda, the woman called again, reiterating what she had said on her firat visit, the farmer paying but little attention to what" aho aaid, looking upon the whole aflair as an attempt to hUmbag him; Not at all discour¬ aged, the woman called again the next day, and wound up her conversation by saying that she knew .where three hat crowns full of gold had been buried on Hia farm, and that, if he would do ea ahe directed, they could recover, it; bul thatit waa necessary to allay the spirits that stood guard over it; that a large sum of money must be present with them, at the incantation.— She thougiit five thousand dollars would be re¬ quired, but was not sure as lo the amount; and sho pi-oposed, if he would go into it, and furnish the money, that she would give him two-thirds of the treasure, while ahe would reaerve the oth¬ er (me-third aa her share.
Up to this time, the farmer appears to have btid no confidence in the woman ; but as she took his hand and traced the mysterious lines therein, telling him the great things in storo for Mm, especially as she had told him some thinga that had occurred in his life that hc supposed had never been known. About this time he sold a large lot of cattle, for which hc received .in cash about $4,000. The next day the woman called again, and said that @3,0Q0 was the amount required to be pres¬ ent to allay the spirits. The farmer then produ¬ ced the package of money received for the cat¬ tle, and the two sat down to table, and coun¬ ted out §3,000 in bank notea, excepting four small gold coina. The money was then folded up, the woman all the lime making, strange mo¬ tions ond talking strange talk. The next day and day after the woman called again, each time counting the money as before, making the samo signs, &c., but leaving the money with the farm¬ er, wrapped up in the handkerchief.
At the next visit, ahe required him to take a solemn oath that he was not to [ell to a living aoul the object thoy were in puraiiitof, ihat she; was going away, to be absent lor a short time i he was nol to look at the package of money a any time excepting when ahe was present; and after making an earnest prayer, she took hold of him while she held tho package of money in her hand, and swung him around, so that they came together back to back. Sho then gave him back the handkerchcf, as he aupposed all right, and told him that ahe would return on the 15ih, 16th or 17th of August, and then they would go in company and secure the hidden treasure. On the 15th ho hardly expected to meet her, and waa not disappointed tliat ahe did nol come. On the 16th he sat up late at night, expecting her arrival.
After wailing till near midnight, on the 17ih, he began to suspect all was not right, and he feared all this might be a trap to rob him. So strong did this suspicion fasten upon him, that he took up hia gun loaded it, and went out into the shrubbery surrounding the house, where ho could see all who approached withofii beingseen and remained there until 2 o'clock in the morn¬ ing- But no one came. As the time had elapsed that waa set for his fair visitor; he considered himself absolved from hia obligaiion, never doubting in the least hut that hia money was safely deposited in the handkerchief.
Unrolling it carefully, what was hia dismay at seeing, not a roll of bank bills and four pieces of gold, as he had left it, but a package of bruwn paper and four cents, in lieu thereof. Even the handkerchief had beenchanaed; instead ol being his own, it was one precisely similar. One of the strangest things in all Una strange irnnsac- tion is, that a counterfeit five-dollar bill that was placed in the roll of money, was taken out ofit and relurned in the package olbrown paper- How this was done is a mystery wc cannot solve The farmer who has been 8» completely bam- baozled but of S3,000, now seeks to find some remedy at law- Strange as this story may appear lo many, we

{Cr The Chineso Secrei Order, called the ¦' Triad/' has been eo frequently mentioned of late years In our accounts from California and the East, that no doubt many of our readers will be glad to know eomething of its character., From a recent essay published in a Paris paper called *' La Patrie," it seems that the Chinese name of this order is Sau-lio-heei, and that the meaning of it is "the Society ol the United Three, or of the Triad, that is to say, of heav- e», earth, and man." There is a distinctive badge to he worn by the members, when they dare do so. It is a blue silk scarf tipped with thread iace, but as they are alwaya opposed to the Tartar government of China, it is rather a dangerous badge to wear. In some provinces, however, they are eufficiently numerous U> brave the government and wear it publicly. Tho Tri¬ ad, like all tho oihcr aecret societies of China, constitutes a great political conspiracy against the Tartar dynasty, and they ore now the active and vigorous propagators of ihe insurrection .— The number three is the mystic one of the Tri¬ ad. Their Supremo Directors are three chiefs, and a Triad member displays the number wher¬ ever hc ean in his actions. Thua he takes his cup of tea with three fingers, bows three limes, require.B three invitations to be seated, elc. The Triad dates from tho usurpation of the foreign emperors, and the Tartar government is more severe towards its members than thoso of any other society, because of the wider ramificatiopa of the order, and their avowed and unconcealed hatred of tho Tartar race. They havo their meetings in California, and wherevereisc Chi¬ nese may be found.- Their atalutes are written upon scrolls of Imen, which at the least alarm of danger arc sunk inthe bottom of deep wells. Tho details of their orsanizaiion aod working are unknown, but the cremonies of initiation have been aacertaitied.
