You are Couain Tom, aren't you f" she oontinaed, a sudden misgiving orossing her mind.

"Well, I couldn't help it—and besides, aren't we cousina ?" said Mr. Tom, swinging himaelf comfoitably into a branch juat above Mary.
"Why, Tom, how yoa have ohanged J" ejaculated the young lady, pushing baok the ourla with one hand, that ehe might the bet- ter view her playmate, of childhood's days. " Your hair never ourled so before; aud what a nioe moustache you've got. I shouldn't have known you, Tom!"
No," said Tom, roguishly. And you've grown so tall I  I declare, Tom, you're splendid."
The gentlemau langhed. "I oould return the oompliment if I dared ! But where are all tbe rest of my relalious ? The house be¬ low is aa empty as a haunted ball."
'All gone to weloome that horrid, poky old Prof. La Place, who has graoioualy indicated his willingness to pasa a few weeks with us. Tom, I do hate that man."

" Nonsense, Mary 1 why, he's only twenty- six."
" I don't care—I know he's rheumatic and

" I wou't, upon my honor," said Tom.

Mary turned away with crimsom indignation basking in her cheeks.

" I wouldn't if I were you," consoled Tom. " But, Gousiu Mary, wait and aee the man be¬ fore yon decide. He may be quite a decent fellow."
" No," said Mary, ahaking her head aud bit¬ ing her oherry lips firmly;"! hate him be¬ forehand !"
"What a aplendid little pussy you are," said her companion, langhing.
"No, iudyed, Tom,  I'm not!" aud the blue

" It's the nicest place in the world np here ; I feel just like a bird with the leaves fiattering against my faoe and the wind blowing so softly—and X intend to, stay here ?

And she thought how very, ve¬ ry handsome cousin Tom !vas, and how much he had ohanged in tbe ten years that had elapsed since she had seen him last; and she wondered whether Tom was engaged to any pretty girl—somehow she hoped not 1 Now, why conidn't Tom have been rich like that Prof. La Place, instead of a poor young medi¬ cal student, and "
And when the large biack eyes were sud¬ denly lifted to hera, Mary felt as though he had read every thonght of her mind, and blnshed scarlet.
" Come, Tom," she chattered, to hide ber confusion, " we've been up here long enough. Help ms down, and I'll abow you the old sun¬ dial that we used to heap up with with butter cupa wheu we were children-"
" What a tiny, inaignificant, little Mary she
j felt, leaning on the arm of tbat tall cousin.—

And Miss Mary settled herself ao snugly with one tiuy slippered foot swinging down, and her pretty head close to a nest of blue apeckled bird's egga, that Ruth gave it up with a Bigb of despair.
" Well, tben, have it yonr own wav, you incorrigible romp I I wish yon weren't too big to be abut up in a dark closet, or bave your ears well boxed!"
"It is a pity, isn't it," said Mary,demurely "Of conrse it is, Mary ; if cousin Tom Brad¬ ley comes this morning, be sure and explain to him wby we are absent, aud behave like a yoang lady, mind ?"
"All righl," said Mary daunlleaaly. "I alwaya liked Tom! we used to have grand romps together when we were child;-en.

"To my life's end!" was the whispered answer; and Mary felt herself crimsoning} mnch as she strove to repress the tell-tale blood.
Bat there was no one iu the barouche, save Mr. Thorne and Ruth, aa it drew up ou tbe grand sweep, bsslde the two consins.

Mary had dropped his arm aud stood dis¬ mayed. **Yoa told me you were Cousin Tom ?" "So I am consin Toml that is my name and relationship.   Now, Mary," and the black eyes sparkled brimful of deprecating archness " don't he angry because I don't take anuff, nor wear spectaclea I   I bag the other Cousin Tom'a pardon, whoever he ia ; but 1 am very glad he isn't here.

He need not have been so apprehensive, for in tbeir twih'gbt walk beside the auu-dial that '¦ very evening, ahe confessed that she did not find Prof. La Place such a lerrible ogre, after all; quite the coulrary, in fact. And he anc' ceeded in convincing her that he liked his im¬ pulsive little couain Mary all the better for these pear tree confidencea I
But, no doubt, it was a very perplexing thing to have two Couaiu Toms; and so, about six m.onths subsequently, Miss Mary contriv' ed to obviate that inconvenience by allowing ooe of them to assume a nearer relationship, and in apite of all her asaervations to the contrary, she ia Mrs, Prof- La Place.

THE DEAD COLONEL.
" Many and many a strange atory eonld I tellyou," said tbe young sergeant, aahe stood beside me on the deck ofthe "Armenia," look¬ ing dowu npon the silv ery watera of tbe Had- Bon. "Many a straage sto ry, and many a sad one- But the wildest of them all is that of our dead colonel. I do not expect you lo be¬ lieve it; for I should think the man who lold me such a tale, a liar or a lnnatio. Yet I give you my word,' that every circumstance trans¬ pired exactly ag I shall narrate it.
" When we left New York for the aeat of war, Fred Maiden waa our colonel. He was a splendid fellow, standing six feet in his stock¬ ings, with a face wbich women pronoanoed perfection. He was married ou tbe very day before our regiment started, and I am aure that his beantiful youug bride loved him very deariy. When sbe cluug to his breaat at part¬ ing, aud ho stood with his teeth set firmly over hia under lip that no one might see it quiver, I felt my own eyes filled with leara when I Ihonght how soon aome rebel ballet might stretch him white and cold upon the bat¬ tle-field, and leave that gentle bride a widow. Thoae partings are the hardeat part of a sol¬ dier's life. We all loved our young colonel, aud we knew as well tbat we ahould never have to bluah for him, as though he had al¬ ready fought a hundred battlea.
"If I had time lo lell, and you to listen to them, you ahould hear the mauy inatances by which he proved himself all we thought him. Safficeit to say, that he was foremost in every foriom hope ; that he led the way where dan¬ ger seemed the greatest, and that no woman eould have aoothed a dying pillow more ten¬ derly thau he, onr yoang colonel, witb siuewa like iron, and a heart that never beat the fas¬ ter for the whizzing of a bullet. We bad loved him at first; but we almoat worshipped bim after we had fonght together. Time had pasaed on, awift for us, aiM slowly, I suppose, for those who wailed for tidiugs from the bat¬ tle field, or read, witb starting eyes and aching souIs,the long lisls of killed and woand¬ ed, and our troopa were before Richmond wait ing tbe beginning of that awful conteat. It waa sundown, aud I was atanding near the | camp fire thinking sadly of the brave fellows who lay buried beneath Soathem soil; and of the many more who would inever live to see the setting of' to morrow's sun, when I felt a hand upon my Fhoulder, and turniug, saw Colonel Maiden at my side. Hia face was very pale, and he looked at me with an ex¬ pression whioh almost frighiened me, it -was so like that I have seen npon the featares of the dead—a solemn sort of smile which seem¬ ed carved there, and did not come and go as natural smiles.
**' I have been writing my last letter to my wife,' he said. * Will yoa promise me to give it to her V
" * To give it to her ?' I cried, in astonish¬ meut.    * How ? When ?'
"' After I am dead,' anawered the colonel, in a olear, calm voice. ' I aball be shot jnst above the heart, at twelve o'olock, to-morrow.' " 'I am not mad,' he said, in reply to my wondering gaze. * I am oonvinoed tbat wbat I have told yoa wilt oome to pass. My grand¬ father was a Scotchman, and there have been many instanoes of what he called " aecond sight" in onr family: this, I am certain, is one of th'em.'
'"Youare surely not under the inflnence of such a foolish auperstition,' I oried. ' You have dreamed a strange dream, probably. For Heaven's aake, banish it from your mind, at once and forever 1'
"'Sergeant Oray, Ishall cot do my duty less readily for the knowledge of my fate,' re¬ plied the colonel, a little sternly. ' But I can¬ not believe lhat I am deceived in my present¬ iment. In the vision, or dream (whiohever yon please to call it), whieh came upon me in my tent just now, 1 saw the whole scene. I rode near a dump of low, stunted bushes, and an officei with one arm rode near me.— We were talking togetber, and at tbat mo¬ ment I waa shot. I fell. You andanother comrade lifted me from tbe ground. I ooald not apeak or move ; bat I knew what you did, and even heard tbe surgeon's ejaculation: "' Jly God I is lbal Maiden r' " * After tbat, I remember uothing until I came to myaelf with my head npon the table in my tent where I had bsen writing. Some¬ lhing seemed to tell me, also, tbat yott were the proper person lo whom to intmat thia let¬ ter to poor Alioe. She will suffer deeply, poor girl I and I—but this will not do to think of. Give her my letter. Good-bye, and God bless you I'
" He gave me such a Imgeriug grasp of the hand as one might give a friend on the verge of an eternal parting, and tumed away, leav¬ ing me standing bdfore the fire, with that white missive in my hand, and a atrange hor¬ ror curdling the blood within my reins.
" Would tomorrow prove hia viaion the mere phantom of a tronbled brain, or was tfae dream (if dream it waa) prophetio? I oould uot answer my own question.
"The morrow oame »t last, ushered in by ! tbe thnnder of artlUeiy and the roar of burst¬ ing shells—an awful moming, never to be for¬ gotten by any who saw it dawn. When we had been fighting many hours, I atlll saw the aplendid figure of Colonel Maiden riding on before aa, and atlll heard hia olear voloe giv¬ iug utterance to worda of oheer and encoar¬ agement. Dead bodiea lay thiokly scattered npon the long, ooarse grasa, wounded men lift¬ ed np their voioes, and called for aid, often- time in vain. The temporary hospitals were full to overflowing, and the surgeons had their hands fully occupied already.
*' Meu in the rear ranks had fallen like grasa before the mower's scythe, yet he, always foremost, always oonsplouone, remaiued un- hart. I began to feel au inolination to laugh at myself for my foolish credulity. It was almost noon ; the sun was shining fiercely down npon os; our throats were parohed and oas faces blistered, still there waa no pause in the conflict, and the bullets rattled about os like hail. In some places the dry grass and brushwood had taken fire, and it was awful to hear the aoreams of the wounded men as the flames approached thera. At one point, I al¬ moat stumbled over a poor fellow lying with both legs crushed beneath him, praying for meroy from the tramping feet of hia own com¬ rades. I paased a moment, to aaaiat in pla¬ oing him upon a bier, whioh some men brought np at that inatant-
"It was only a moment, bat when I turned again toward the Colonel, I aaw, to my un- apeakable horror, that he had halted near a stunted group of bushes, and that an old, white-hahed offioer, who had already lost an arm, had ridden up beside him, and waa speaking to him. 'The firat part of the viaion,' I muttered; 'Heaven avert the reat I* but eren as I Bpoke, the rattle of musketry broke upon my ear, and I saw him fall heavily fxom his horse.
" In a moulent I was beaide him, and the rest—a comrade and myaelf-were bearing him toward the hoapitah Surgeon Ellia—hia dreaa dleheveled, and his hands aud garments daubed with blood—came forward to meet us. He oast one glance at what we oarried, and started back with a low ory of, * My God I ia that Maiden ?'
"The words struck upon my ear withau awfal meaning. They were the same which our Colonel had heard in his viaion, and which he had repeated to me beaide the camp-fire. He was not quite dead yet; but they told me he would never opeu his eyes again, and that waa no time for me to linger. I preaaed one kias upou his pale forehead, and went back to my post with a very heavy heart—made still more heavy by the recollection of the letter, whioh I carried in my boaom.
I had left him, lying motionleaa and senae* leas, upon hie pallet. I had never thonght to aee his face agaiu, unleaa I looked upon him in hiB shroad; yet, before the dose of that afternoon, I heard a wild, rejoioing shout from our men, and tarning, aaw Colonel Maiden riding toward ns. lie was mounted on aiarge white horae, ond bia face was pale aa aahea.— The bosom of his nniform was soaked nith blood, and his features were sharp and hag¬ gard- Ue acknowledged the criea of the meu by a sign, bat be neither smiled nor looked toward tliem. Only with his right hand he pointed iu the direction of Richmond. No words could have beeu more eloquent. They rushed forward with redoubled energy aud renewed hope.
" They had supposed him dead, aud he had returned to them. No wonder that lhey re¬ joiced. But I thought that I knew he was dead. I had seen him cold, and rigid, and eenselesa. I had felt that awful death-sweat on his forehead, aud I could not reconcile all this with his living presence.
" Throughout the five, long days of battle, which followed, I saw him perpetually, but never ooald come near him, I thought that he avoided me. I even saw him once or twioe wave hia hand toward me, as though lo keep me off. Bat, from the expression of hia face, I could gather nothing. It was white -and changeless, as I had seen it upon the pillow, when I left him (as I thonghtj forever.
"At last, the battle was over. It is need¬ lesa to tell yoa the result: you know thai al¬ ready. There was a lemporary lull; a time for rest; needed—Heaven knows I—by thoae war-worn Iroopa; and I atood, once more, be fore the camp fire. It was evening ; tbe ligbt of tho full moou lay upon the diatance, con- traaiing with the warm red and yellow glim¬ mer of the fires. Gronpa of meu aat, or lay, or atood, in a thouaand picturesque attitudes ; and that night-bivouack waa well worth the attention of an artiat'a eye—so fnll waa it of fine effects, aud glorioas contracta of light and sbadow.
" Somehow, I had been left alone; no com¬ rade was near me, and only the shadow ofa sentry, passiog loand fro, at some diatance, felt upou the oleared space ot groond to my right hand. How he came, or wheu he oame, I sball never know, but suddenly I aaw Gol. Maiden atanding in the midst of tbat bright spot, looking at me. Ilis faoe was paler, hia eyes larger, bis featurea more rigid than be¬ fore ; but my heart yearned toward him, and I atretched out my hand- He did not take it; he only looked at me with a strange, wan smile, and shook bia bead.
"Something (I hardly knew what) kept me from advancing toward him, and filled me with au awe whioh I tried in vain to diaaipate. If he would only speak, I thought, the apell would be broken ; but I waited in vain ; he still remaiued dnmb. At last, iu tbe hope of forcing some word from him, I aaid:
" 'I am glad to see you aafe, colonel. We thought, alone lime, lhat we had loat you.'
" Not a word came from those pale lipa in answer. He only amiled upon me with the same sad look in his dark eyes, and my heart beat wildly.
" 'Your lelter," I almost gasped, forcing a langh as I did so. 'You will want it back-— You cau carry it yourself, now.'
"And then I heard a voice—a strauge, lowi wailing voice, which moaned rather than aaid: '"Yea, yes. I oan give it to Alioe myself.* "He atretohed hta hand toward me, and I drew the letler from my boaom. I saw the fingers oloae about it, and, in a moment, the place where he had atood waa empty. I looked everywhere, but there were no signa of his presence. I questioned the sentry. No one had paaaed him. I asked the men about the fires, but learned nothing from them; and, at laat, I benl my atepa towarda tbe hospitaL— The firat peraon whom I met within its walla waa Surgeon Ellis ; aud to bim I put the quesiion trembling on my lips :

The aurgeon looked at me aa thongh he believed I bad gone mad.

'"Are you oertain he is dead? I almost screamed.
" *Abaolutley,' replied the surgeon. 'I clo¬ sed his eyea myself. I crossed his hauds upon his bosom. I aaw with my. own eyea the ooffin coutaining his remains dispatched to his lale reaidence, at the requeat of hia friends. I know from a certain source, that the funeral ceremony takea plaoe to-day.'
" 'To-day V I oried; *to-day I He has been with ine, to-day. I saw him butan hour ago.' "I am conscious of the surgeon's fiinging np 'his arms and reeling toward me. I saw the stare and tbe white tent ou which lhey shone ohange into oue great eheet of blackneaa, and knew no more.
"When I revived, I was in a hospital, and learned thatl hod been saflbring for weeki

"The flrst place toward which I bent my ateps was the home of Goionel Maiden's widow. Bhe, they told me, was ill aud oouflued to her bed; but her mother oame into the parlor to speak with me. We apoke of the poor colo¬ nel, of hia virtnea aud of hta gallant deeds.— And she, with the garmltty of age, gave me a long deacription of the scene which ensued on the arrival of the tidinga of hia death, and ended with theae words:
" *And, worst of all, I fear mj poor dangh¬ ter haa partially lost her reason. She insist¬ ed that her husband himaelf brought her the news. and a letter. She was alone in thia room, when we heard a aoream aud a fall, and entering, found her lying on tbe floor with a letter open in her hand. She said theu, and shepersialB in repeatang, that Colonel Maiden, dressed in his nniform, but white and cold as a oorpae, appeared before her, laid this letter ou the table, and aaid or signified to her, tbat he waa shot throngh the heart, at noon, on the first day of the battle. We believed that some offioer of his regiment brought the ti¬ dings, and that the shock temporarily tamed her brain. For, although we oertainly heard no one come in or go out, tbat is the only rea¬ sonable solution of the mystery.'

FOE   THE  LITTLE FOLKS.
Andy's Friend.
Andy Patterson was a poor boy—very! poor; aud it was generally conceded that he I had no frieuda. Andy's father had beendead , aome yeara, having died poor and degraded. ' The charaoter of the father bad left a atain on the name of the child, and onr hero'had to suf¬ fer. Away in a miserable hut, by the edge of the wood, where the highway wound ont -rom the town around the foot of a steep hill, jived Andy Patterson, with his mother and three little siaters. The mother was a feeble woman, and as she shrank away from the world, the world knew bnt little about her. It knew that she was poor; and that she wore garment patched and faded ;.lhat she did not oonrt friendship ;—and fartbermore, it sup¬ poaed that she waa not worth anything. Of the ohildren, Andy was sixteen. Sarah waa twelve; Harriet was ten ; aud Lucy waa eight. Theae three girls were not strong.—They had been born white tbeir father was very intem¬ perate, and the sad effects of the parent's sin lay heavily upon them. Some people wonder¬ ed why Mr. Paterson did not aend Sarah out to work—why she did uot give the child away to some good persou who would take It and bring it up.—Once the girl did go to live with a woman in the village, but her slrength fail¬ ed her, and her mother took ber home. The wi'low found some work to do, but ahe waa not able to do muob. The labor of anpport' ing the family devolved almost entirely upon Andy, who worked willingly aud cheerfally when he found work to do.
Andy Patterson was very brown frora expo- aare to aunahine and storm, and his garmeots were of the pooreat kind. People said he Was poor and degraded, and the boys of the village did not associate with him. He did not attend ohurch, nor did he go to the Sab¬ bath aohool. He waa not a religious boy, they said. But the people of that town knew bat very little of the boy wiiom they thns de¬ nounced. They said he was going lo grow up just what bis fatber bad been, thoagh he lacked hia father's smartness.
Now tbe truth was; Andy Patterson did not inherit his father's characteristics. Physical¬ ly and mentally, he took the condition of tho mother; and aa she bad not been known in that section before Mr, Patterson married heri people never understood her.
One evening Andy came home with the marks of tears ou his oheeks. Hia mother Baw that he had been weeping, and ahe asked what bad happened.
Ah, it was the same old story,—he had been cnt by sneers and insults.
"Mark Larrabee called roe names, whioh made my blood rnn hot and cold. I gave him no provocation—none at all. I was in the post-office while the mail was being dis¬ tribnted, and he asked me if I expeoted auy importaut letters from the seat of gov»-rnment. Of course thia caused a general laugh among the thonghtlesa onea, and he strutted aa though he had done something smart. Wheu he apoke to me again, with another taunt, I asked him to mind his own baaineaa ; and then he twit¬ ted me of heing the child of a drunkard 1 0 mother—it ia well that you obtaiued that sol¬ ema pledge from me. Had it not been for the promise I had given yon, I think I shoald have maimed Mark Larrabee for life."
"Then," aaid tho widow, taking the haud of her aon, and preaaing it to her lips, "yoa have reason lo thank God lhat you were re¬ strained. It ia better as it ia, Andy. I know it is hard ; but—look there, my son."
She pointed to a picture which hung against the wall.' It was an engraving, iu a black frame, audita story waa thia: Jesus Christ, almostnaked, with cruel thorns about his brow, bending beneath the weight of a pon¬ derous croaa, was aoo urged and hooted at by tbe unfeeling crowd that followed at hia heels, " So suffered tbe Son of God," pronounced the widow. "It ia hard, my son—very hardi but do not yet deapair."
"I don'l despair," relumed Andy ;   " tho» I often wish tbat I might die-" "Die.    Andy!"
"Idon't meau die aud leave yon, mother- Bat—it's too bad. I wiah I oould find eome. thing better to do, Mark Larrabee ia going into a great store in the oity; he is going in with Mr. Phillip Brown, who owns the large mills on the river. Larrabee got the ohauo becaaae he had friends, and because his folka have money."
Mrs. Patterson spoke suoh worda of oom¬ fort and oheer aa she conid oommand, aod af¬ ter awhile her aon beoame calm aud reconcil¬ ed; and then an hour waa spent in study ing_ The widow was a good scholar, and her poor ohildren had leamed far more from her in¬ atrnction than many children of the aame age bad leamed at the oommon achoot.
When the spring opened Andy got a chance to work on a neighbor'a farm al twelve dollara a month ; and there he remained till the oropa were gathered in autumn. Ooce or twioe du¬ ring the anmmer Mark Larrabee came home from the oity on a viait. He was dreased very finely, and wore kid glovea, and carried a cane and amoked cigara, and drank brandy-and- waler at the hotel ; and wben he met Andy Patterson he turned np his noae aa thongh he had ent:ountered something unclean.
When the oold winter came again Andy left the farmer'a, and went home ; but he waa not idle. He sawed wood in the village, thus eaming enough lo support the needy onea; aud aometimea he felt able to parcbaae little dainties for his mother and sisters.
Spring came again, aud Andy was seven¬ teen years old. He waa amall of his age, aud eight of his frame; but his health was good, and his oonstitution strong. One evening, in the early part of April, jaat after the aun had gone down, and while the family in tbe hum¬ ble oot were eating supper, a cry for help waa heard from the road. Andy ran out, and found that the atage had stuck iu a mudhole, aud that one of the wheels had been brokeu. One of the passengers was in a great harry to reach the village, aa he intended to take a private team and ride over tothe woolen mills that evening. He oould walk to the hotel very easily, bnt faow ehonld he get fals trunk
AlODg
" Here is Andy," satd the driver,- wheel your trunk up."
•'Certainly," replied our hero, In a prompt, obeerfal tone; "I'll do it with pleasure." " Do it," aald thedriver," and I'll pay yon." " I gueas there won't be muoh lo pay, air." And thtiB apeaking Andy rau off, and soon re¬ turned with his barrow, npon which his trunk was fixed by the owner.
The gentleman who owned the trank, and who walked by Andy's side as he trudged on with his load, was a kindly looking, middle aged man, whose ruling oharaoteriatic aeemed to be—good sense. He entered into oonversa¬ tion with the youth, and waa not long in finding out faow mattera stood wilh him. And then he conversed on general topics, snoh as might oome withiu the acope of the boy's tmderstaud- ing, I
"But," said the man, as they atopped a! moment to rest, "do you tell me that yon have never attended school?" " Not ainoe my father died." " Bat yoa have some one to teaoh you ?" " Ab, sir—I have a good, kind mother— God bless her I   She teaches me I"
The daylight was fading; but there was a glimmering iu the sunsent horizon, and as the face ofthe boy was turned away. It was easy to see the brigbt tear-drop that rolled down his cheek. He picked np the barrow once more, aud trudged on, aud at length they reached the tavern iu the villiage. When the trunk had been taken off, the gentleman took his pocket-book, and handed to Andy a bank note.
" There's a dollar, my boy.   That will pay you, won't it?" » 0, air—it's too much." " I guess you oan find a uae for it.    Al any rate, I am satisfied, ifyou are."
"Andy thanked the gentleman fsom the botlom of his soul, as his tones of tremnlons gratitude plainly ahowed, and then tumed his stepa homeward." " What ia it my aon ?" " A dollar, mother.   See." The widow took the bank note, and aa ahe examined it by the light   of the candle, she nttered an exolamation of surprise. " What did yon say it waa, Andy f" "A dollar."
There muat be aome mistake. It ia a ten dollar note."
" The gentleman told me he gave me a dol¬ lar."
" Ah," aaid the widow, •' I see how he made tbe mistake. Look t he only saw that figure."
It was very aimple. The upper right-hand comer of the bill, where the " 10" had been, waa mntitaled juat enough to entirety remove tbe cypher, so that only the fignre " 1" was left. The gentleman hsd only noticed thia figure, aud had suppoaed that he waa giving away a one dollar bill.
" What will you do, my son ?" " I will carry il back at onoe." " Yon have no desiro to keep it ?" " Mercy t I would sooner die !" " Bless you, my boy J   Go and do as you have said."
Andy bad some few chorea to do, and when they were done he went to the village, bat the gentleman was not at the tavern.—The old slage driver waa there, however, and to him Andy told hia atory.
" Why didn't you keep it, Andy ? Yoa are poor, and that man Ib rioh."
"Keep it I" repeated the boy, straightening himself to his proudest hight." "I'd rather burrow in the ground, with bares and foxes, aud live on roots, than do sucb a thing, John Alden, I may be poor, bat God knows I am I not a villian. You will seo the mau. Give I him tbis, and tell him if he has a mind to aend me a dollar, he may do ao. If I do not mis¬ judge him, I think he would rather send me the dollar lhan not."
"By the glory I" cried stout John Alden, clapping the boy upon tbe ahoulder, "you're a pattern. You're true bine. Yon're honeat, Andy. Ah, there's the snpper bell—I'il do the errand, and bring you an answer."
As Andy Pattersou left the tavem, he met Mark Larrabee on tbe sidewalk, bat Mark did not look as he had looked a few monlhs be- fere. His clothes were not so spruce, and his head waa not carried so high.
Andy stopped in at the post offioe, where he heard two men talking.
" Mark Larrabee has lost hia place, I hear" said one.
Yes," replied the other. "He got into rather rough ways. Iu fact, he was dishon¬ est. I heard of his making one pull of a huu¬ dred dollara."
" Why didu't lhey prosecate him ?" "His father fixed   it  up   by paying the money."
"Well, his father may save him this time but I don't believe tbey can make an honest man of him." I
Aa Andy walked home, he wondered how ! a boy could do'such a thing as sleal money. | He wondered at it very much as the healthy, ! normal-man wonders at the infaluation of the suicide. |
On the following day, towards the middle of the foreuoon, while Andy was at work in the shed, his mother came and informed him tbat a gentleman wiahed to aee him. Onr hero weut inlo the hoaae, wbere he found the man for whom he had wheeled the trunk on the prerious evening.
" My boy," the man said, in an off-hand, easy manner, the atage driver gave me the bank-note you handed him ; and I have beeu thinking, while walking dowu here, tbat aome kind apiril must have torn the corner of that bill off for our especial benefit. I suppoaed it waa a one dollar bill when I gave it to you ; and I oertainly should uever hava knowu to the oontrary if you had not reiurned it. How¬ ever, It has led to alittle prospeot of buaineaa. From wbat I aaw of you laat evening, and from what John Alden has told me, in con¬ nectiou with this bank-note affair, I am in¬ cliued lo the opinion that I want you lo help me. My name is Philip Brown. I owu a store in the city, aud I owu the woollen mills in the adjoining town. A year ago I took Mark Larrabee into my employ, but he did uot auit me. I think yon will auit me exactly. Will you go wilh me ?" Andy looked down at his poor olothes. " You shall have garmenta suitable to the change.   Will you go ?"
Andy looked around upon his mother. "Yes, my son," ahe said. " The mau who seeks for hooeat merit as this man bas songht for it, recognizing tbe jewel even in thia lowly atation, muat himself be honeat and npright; and with anch I joyfully truat yon."
Aud Andy Patteraon went witb the mer¬ chant, whom ha served so faithfully and well that, at tho end of a year, he was ptaoed in a poaition of great responaibility, aud his wages were increased to anch a sum that he was able o plaoe hia mother and aistera in a better home.
But Andy's preferment was not partionlarly out of friendahip to himaelf. He roae on his own sterling merita—rose to be a partner with Fhllip^rowu—rose to be a merohant upon hia own capital—roae to fill posts of honor and trust for his couutry. Should I call him by another name, thonaanda would reoognize him.
Who was Andy's. Friend ? The reader will say he had several of them. Perhapa he had. Hia mother was his dearest earthly friend ; and yet, in those times wheu ahe aought to save him from evil, ahe had pointed him to a Friend who oould oare for both mother aud child, aye—eveu to thia day, in hia home of wealth I Andy preserves a time-worn, faded piotnre, in black frame—a picture of One bearing a oroas, toiling beneath acroas, toiling beneath a burden, acourged and spit upon, with drops of blood starting from his tfaom- pierced brew. And the piotnre faaa a lesson for faim yet. Afa—a legson for na all, vfaUe lifelsousl

1. Do not nndertake a bnaineaa with which you are not perfeotly acquainted auy aooner than you wonld attempt, if blind, lo eturvey a city. Furat thoroughly understand what you propose to do. Serve an apprenlioeahip—do anything—before taking a single step involv¬ ing riak.
2. Never altempt a busineas for which you have no taate or tact. Seek to do that fo, whioh you have a natural faottlty and reliah. Don't aspire to be a merchant, when you ahould be a farmer, a meohanic, or a day- laborer,
3. Never connect yourself iu partnership with those in whom you have not perfeot con¬ fldence ; with thoae to whom yon would not be willing siok or well, at home or abroad, living or dead, to intrust all yoor baaineaa afiaira.
4. Never attempt Xo do more basioeas than you oan aafely do on yonr capitat.
5. Avoid taking the extraordinary risks of long credits, no matler what profits are in prospeot.
6. Give no credit wbatever to any one who doea not posseas a good moral character.
7. Supervise, carefully, your own business, (not yonr neighbor's,^ and look afteryour clerks, and see tbat lbey are falthfal In tbe performanoe of all their dnties.
8. Let all thoso with whom you have deal¬ ings or interoonrae understand distinctly that you will not lend youraelf, for the aake of trade, to do any mean thing—anything which your conscience wit! not approve of.
9. Never lend your name by endoraement or otherwiae, except under the most extraor¬ dinary circumstancea, aud theu let the act be guarded with every poaaible secnrity.
10. Never allow yourself, or your partners, to draw a dollar from the concern, to invest in auy "outside operation" whatever.
11. In forming a copartnership, insist that a limited, fixed sum only ahall be drawn by eaoh partner for persoual expenses.
12. Under uo circumstanoea whatever deal in stocks. Dou't believe any one of the thou¬ aand marvellous tales of a fortane in lhat di¬ reolion.   They are a trap and a lie.
13. Keep all your accumulated profita in yonr business so loug as you owe a dollar.— When yon hava more capital tbau you can nae, then it will be proper to invest it outside
,14, Borrow of Banks or other soarces never if it cau be avoided. If temporary assiatance is needed, seek it from a tried friend or from a aonnd banking inatitutiou, and then relurn the loan, on the day fixed, with the moat rigid punctuality.
"15. Have an eye on thecondition of the coanlry, its crops, and the general prospecta for basiness, and look -out sharp for the movemenis of politicians, wbo, in nine casus out of ten, care more for a re-etection than for our commercial interests or our national pros¬ perity.
There are other and most important mattera which shoald not ba forgolten. Keep good company. Value integrity more thau money. Live within your means. Ejohew wine, thea¬ tres, and fast horaes. Uae no profane langnage. Never quarrel with a partner. Be kind, con¬ siderate, and generous to clerks, and also to your unfortunate debtors. Cultivate the friendahip of all. Do your proper share in promoling the public weat. Be a man, a gen¬ tleman, and a Cbrislian ; and you will mak^ sure of an inberitance in this life and of au- told richea in the Hfe whioh is lo oome.— Independent.
