A BURAL  COTTRTSHIP.
And  bow  Joslab  Hawley  mistook   Hester
Xbomas' mother for Hester Tbomas,
and wbat be did.
"Will you be at bome to-night, Hetty?" and the speaker, a, tall, mascnlar, well-Iookiog farmer, re-ldened to the roots of hia hair, as thongh he had committed some verj wioked aot, instead of askiug a simple qaestion.
Ee was bashfnl, extremely so, was Josiah Hawley; at least in tbe pr-'sence of yoang ladies, most of ail io tbe prefieace of tbe girl be loved. Ko young farmer in all the conntry poeeessed a better kept farm, or talked wttb more coDfidenoe among his compeers of atock and crop, on kindred subjects. But the glimpse of some pretty face or foot ooming in his direction, aflected him tike a Sash of light¬ ning. On such occasions he never knew what to do wllh his bands and eyes, and always felt like screwing himself into a mouse-hole. How he ever contrived to approach Hester Thomas on the snbject of bis preference for her, pro¬ bably remains as much a mystery to himself as it is to others.
But the yonng lady had quite an amonnt of tact and cleverness stowed away somewhere in her pretty little head, albeit it was set on the dimpled, inexperienced shoulders of seven¬ teen. Josiah was wortb, in a wordly way, more than any of her suitors; good-looking and intelligent enough to satisfy any one but an over fastidions; unexceptionable, in short, hearing his excessive biisiness, wbiijb was a frnitfal source of merriment to the yonng people in their little circle. And so, wben Josiah, Id bis awkward, blnndering way, be¬ gan to exhibit his preference for her in varions little waya, sucb as waiting on her to and from singing fichooI,constitnliDg himself her speoial eacort wben she rode on horseback to the soU¬ tary church in the woods, and singling her out at quilting parties, Hetty took it all in the easiest, pleasantest manner possible- The girls laughed, and the young men cracked sly jokes at the expense of her timid suitor; but Hetty stood up for bim very independently— encouraged him out of his shyness—never uotioed any unfortunate blunder—and very likely helped bim along considerably when bis feelings reacbed " tbe culminating point,'* one moonlight autnmn evening, as they were walking bome together from prayer-meeting.
Tbat was a week ago. Hetty bad eaid *'TeB," and agreed to "bring father and inolber lOund on the snbject." Josiah had not been to tbe house aince—likely feeling very mucb like a dog venturing upon the premises of person whoae sbeepfold he had jnst plundered. As yet, neither had had tbe conrage to apeak to tbe " reigning powers" on the aubjeot; aud Hetty, feeling as if she wished to put tbe ordeal off as long as possi¬ ble, at any rale to bave one more coafidential talk on tbe suliject, with bim, said :
"Motber is going over to Auut Ruth's to spend the evening, and wants me to go—but I guesa I won't. I've been working on father's shirts all day, besides doing tbe dairy work, and I am as tired as I can be—so I guesa thev will have to go witboat me. Don't come until eight o'clock. I sball be tbrongb putting things to rights tben, and will let yon in."
Of course Joaiah was not too obtuise tb un¬ derstand that, and bo far forgot hia bashfnlness as to petition for a good-by kiss, wbich waa peremptorily refnsed.
"No.    I shan't.    Do take yourself off.	
Think  I didn't see  yoa   fidget ting   around Barab Joues  at Deacon Banger's yesterday evening f    I've nol forgotten tbat, sir I" "Now, Hetty"—
But the appeal was broken off by a tantali- fiing little langh; aud as be sprang forward to take a pleasant revenge on bia tormentress, she slipped away and ran up the path to the honse, where be saw her wave ber band as she disappeared within the kitcben porch and then he tnmed from tbe gate and took tbe road homeward.
The tea things bad heen carried out, the table aet back against tbe wall, tbe cnimba brushed off from tbe clean, house made carpet, and Hetty's workstand drawn up in front of the blazing fire. A beautifal piled plate of great red apples and a plate of cracked walnuts were on it, iu close proximity to Hetty's work-basket.
On one side of the fire sat Mrs. Thomas, fat and lair, nnd al peace witb all tbe world; rooking aud knitting, and refreshing herself at sundry intervals with a bite from a half-eaten apple that lay on tbe corner of the table, and touching every now and then, in a caressing mauner, with ber foot, a sleek, lazy looking cat that purred and worked on tbe other aide. Hetty was sewing and thinking how she abonld tell her mother she expected a visiter. She wonld have given the world to be able to say, In an off-hand manner, tbat sbe expected Mr. Hawlej to drop in about eight. But she reoolieoted with a twinge of consoience, how hard ahe had tried to get tbe old lady to ao- oompany her husband to Aunt Euth's, spite of her warnings of a spell of neuralgia; how Bbe bad also plead headache as an excuse for not going berself. And sbe knew her mother was quite sharp enongb to draw her own in- ferenoe from these laoia, and from her being dressed with unusual care to spend an evening at home.
" I shall not dare to tell now. She'll be Bure to tbink I wished to get ber out of the way, so I might have Josiah all to myself snd I ahoald aever hear the last of il," ah^ like a vise little pass ahe was ailent.
'meiit if yoa bpnid lur* MMk flttt/ Thoau^ flhe sat bj'ibM fireaide that oold Norember erening.
Under prete^ of being ready to go to ber nnole^fl, Ca thing she had no idea of doing,) sh9 had, JiLftt befoT* tea. Indulged in an indis- oriminat» " fixing np." A'nballj fitting dark '^ioo, with the store look Btlll on it, a fresh linen collar and. tasteful black silk apron— these were the chief items of Hetty's toilet; bat she looked sweet and dainty in her plain dross, aa if hoars had been spent in donning laoe and jewels. Her rich hatr, of the darkest tinge, fell in shining folds olose to her warm red check, and was caaght np In a canning net behind. ,   '
Eight o'clock and past I Mrs. Thomas waa dozing in ber ohair—her shadow on the oppo¬ site wall bobbing about in grotesque mimicry as she .nodded to and fro—now oruahing the Tolaminoos white satin bows on her spmoe oap against the baokof her obair; now almost falling forward, and her fat hands layllalessly in her lap, and her ball of yam had rolled oat upon the hearth, and puss waa busy convert* ing it into Gordian knots. And jnst then oame a double rap at tbe door—bo load, so sudden, and aelf-assnred that Hettj started up with a little shriek, and act her foot on the cat'a tail, who in turn gave rolce to ber amaze* ment and displeasure.
The combined noise aroused Mra. Thomas, and startling into an erect position, ahe rab¬ bed her eyes,.settled her cap-border, and ex¬ olaimed :
"BlesB my soul, Hetty, what waa that?— Somebody at tbe door ? Who oan be ooming at tbia time of night 7"
" It is not late, motber—only a Mtlle past eight. I'll go and see who it ia," said Hetty, demurely, taking the candle from the table.
" No. You wind np mj ball and sweep np the hearth, while I ^0 to the door," aaid the old lady, wbose feet were straggling in the meshes of the unravelled yam. "Drat that oat."
And all this time Josiah waa standing on one foot on the oold porch, with hia hands in his overcoat pockets, wondering if Hetty had fallen asleep, and every now and then giring tbe door a smart rap by way of variation.
In her hurry, Mrs. Thomaa forgot to take tbe, candle, and as she stepped out into the little front entry, the aittingroom door alam- med after hir. She had her hand on the handle of the hall door at tbe moment, and opening it, abe fonnd heraelf in the embrace of a stoat pair of arms, a whiskered face in oloae proximity to ber own, and before she could tbink abont tbe strangeness of ber sitnation, she received a prolonged kiss—a hearty smack —full apon her virtuous matron lipa. "O, murder I 'Taint Obadiah, neither I" She had by this time divested berself of the impression tbat it waa her usnaUy sober spouse who must have come bome in an nnusnally excited condition thus to indulge in such un¬ wonted expressions of affection.
"Get oatl f^etout, I say! Who are you, anyhow f Murder, thieves I Hetty, come here 1    Here*s a man kissing me like mad I*'
But the intruder had by tbia time discover¬ ed bia mistake—it did not need tbe indignant pnmmeling and scratching of the old lady*a vigoroaa fista to cause him to relinquish his hold and fiy as if pursued by some indignant ^bost,
Hetty, nearly choking with amothered langhter, in spite of her trepidation, now came to the resoae.
"I never waa so frightened in all my Iifel The mean acamp I Who could it be ? Hetty, have you any idea ?"
But that datiful daughter was, to all appear¬ ances, innocent as a sucking dove. She aooth¬ ed the old lady by representin;^ tbat it might have been one of the neighbors, who, having drank too much, had mistaken the house and the housewife. She searched tbe entry for the missing spectacles, dropped In the soaffle; rearranged the rumpled cap border; wound up tbe tangled yam; atirred tbe fire—all in tbe most amiable manner possible—and at length bad the aatisfaction of aeeing her mother aubside into her chair with her accna¬ tomed tranquility,
Mra. Thomas waa fully awake now. She had a new idea in ber head, and instead of aettling her head for another nap,8he.puT8aed the train of thought and her knitting, both at tbe same time, with wonderful rapidity. At length, stopping and looking keenly at Hetty—
" I suppose it'a a queer notion of mine, Hetty, but I've a nolion tbal man was 'Slab Hawley,"
My! but if Hetty's face did not fire up then I You might have lit a candb by it. These in¬ cipient aymptoms did not escape the wary inquisitor.
" 'Peara ao to me. ^Cauae those big whis¬ kers were ao muob like his'n, and tbe awk¬ ward way he griped me wilb hia great pawsl"
Hetty was wonderfully busy. Sbe^bent over her work, and drew tbe needle tbroagh so qaickly that in threading ber needle again ahe didn't hare time to anawer.
" I don't think tbat kiss was meant for me, after all Wonder wbo it was intended for; and wonder if you don't know aomething about it, Hetty ?"
" Me, motber f"
" Yea, yon, Hetty I You waa mighty anxioua to get me and Pa offto Aunt Ruth'a thia even¬ ing, but I noticed you were slicked up extra¬ ordinary, for all you weren't going. Hetty, I'm getting old; I know it; bnt I haven't qnite loat my eyesight yet.   I've beard something
about this between yon and 'Siah Hawley.	
What are yoa playin' poasum for ? Oat witb il, I say I"
Our little schemer, thus adjured, made a clean breast ofthe matter; mncb relieved to find that mother "hadn't nolhin* agin him, and would "give falber a talk about it, and bring him all round."
"But, Hetty, I want you to tell 'Siah I'd rather he would'nt make snch a mistake agin. I don't like tbe feel of hia big whiskers abont my face, I don't approve of promiscuous kiss¬ ing."
'Siah nevar heard the last of that blunder. Old Squire Thomas used to deliglit in rebeara- ing the story wheuever all the parties interest¬ ed happened to be present. He would shake bis fat aidea at Joslah'a discomfiture, and hia wife'a tart repliea, and Hetty would join him, and both would laugh uutil the teara ran down their cheeks.
" Never mind'Siah," Mra. Thomaa would say, consolingly. "Let bim laugh. He'd bave been only too glad to bave been in your place twenty yeara ago. He had har.l work to get a kiaa from me, tben. And I hope it will be a leason to you and Hetty agin tbe impolicy of concealment and underhand doin'a of all aorta."
Agae aaid, " Give me neither poverty nor richea;" and thia will ever be tbe prayer of the wiae. Our iucomea should be like our shoes; if too amall, they will gall and pinch us, but if too large, they will canse ua to alum- bleandtotrip. Wealth, after all, ia a rela¬ tive tblng. ainoe he that baa little, wanta leaa, and ia richer lhan be that haa much, but wanta more. True contentment depends not npon what we bave; a tub was large enough for Diogenes, but a world waa too Utile Tor Alexander.
The domestic circle ia alwaya too amall to allow of any rupture; it is alwaya too precious to make excusable any negleot to prevent or heal disturbance. There ara enough to minis¬ ter, hy hlnta and reporta, to domeatio unkind¬ nesa; and nnfortnnalely the best nnder suoh circumstanoea, are mnoh prone to miatake, and miarepresent.motives; ^riflea wbioh with no direct object, are magnified into mountaina of unintentional offenoe.

lUCT AEKOtD'S LOVEES. -
"It Bhall not be bo I I wiU not listen to it 1" exolaliced Bir. Amold.
"Hush, iush, James 1" said hia wife.— " That ia enoagh. Yoa aball speak to Luoy." Strange to aay, this oonoeaslon on the part of the litat-named person had the dealred effect, that of quieting the pasaion of the former. It was not aiways ao. Mr. Amold waa a man of ungovernable temper, a domeatlo tyrant, in- aatiable to the laat. Hia will waa law, and not to be disputed for a moment. No .matter how trifling might L« the aubjeot, how alight its influenoe npon Lia personal oomfort or in¬ convenience, it waa enongh tbat he expressed hia views in regard, to it. Mr. Amold anc- cumbed not from principle oftentimea—firom a deaire to' reign aupremely orer bia houae¬ hold. He waa not a selfish man. It waa not that his wiahea were inteifered with, bnt tbat hia righta were Invaded, and his aupremaoy threatened. Fortunate waa It for hia domeatio peaoe tbat he married one of the gentleat crea¬ turea npon earth. Mra. Arnold, poor soull had no ^nd of triala and troublea. To oae her own expreaaion, ahe had gone throagh life "hnahing I" and it ia no wonder if ahe found her exiatence almost-a burden.
Mr. Amold boasted of bia indifference to woman'a influenoe-^while ereiy fibre and ahoot of grace in hia wife'a nature waa atunted and aubdued by contract with hia ooaraer self. Sbe, wbo might hare been a aocial ornament in her little circle of friends, was nothing more than a domeatic drudge; all eridenoea of her original aelf, and manifestations of her latent aweetnesa of disposition, being confined to a few quiet remarka, generally concerning the comfort of anolher. Lucy Amold waa like her mother only In appearance. Not that ahe waa unamiable, but ahe waa far from gentle— a hlgh'Strnng, spirited girl, who rerolted against her fatber'a tyranny in a manner that set parental aathorlty at defiance. Scarce eigh¬ teen years of age al the time of wbioh I wrote, her mind and feelinga were those of a much older wonian. Sbe was self-reliant, firm and resolute—almost ungoremable, sare by the persualire gentleness of lore. Educated at home—baving been absent fromi It bat little during her life—sbe was free from the wearl- aome artificiality of the more accompliahed women of sooiety. For her to think was to apeak. Simple and artless to a fault, her voice and apeech was aa natural as the aound of the soft aummer wind as it whispered among the goldeu leares of the silver atemmed maples wbich anrrounded the cottage where her eyea firat opened to the light.
Tbe home of the Amolda looked npon the qniet atreet of a qniet little town in tbe oen¬ tral part of New York, not far diatant from a amall hut proaperoaa city. So atill and peace¬ fal ia it there, that one might imagine it to' be alwaya Sunday, aare for the aharp ring of a blacksmith's hammer as it breaka the repose on a week day. The house, to outward ap¬ pearances, ia amall, and very unpretending. The roof slants, in an abmpt fashion, to a few inches of the front windowa, and ends wbere a porob—overhung witb a vine of honeyanokle —affords a delloiona ahade al all hours of the day, ao cool and dense that where the aun¬ llgbt strngglea through It aeema like apota of burnished gold making a mosaic woik of checkered splendor. Tbe stoop ia low —two steps—and your hand reata upon tbe gate of the garden fence—an irregular, leaning mosa, around the base of which tbe grass and fiowera tangle themaelvea In a wild, fond way, aa if they would aupport its grow¬ ing iuSrmities ont of love for the protection it baa afforded tbem.
The gale and fence are aurronndedby wood¬ en nms, most of which seem to have wearied of a portion oftbeir individual selves, and to have parted company in a very sensible and pbilosopblo way. Surrounding the house in front, and al tbe aides, are large and rigorous maples, whioh abut it from tbe view, as if tbey feared to have its modest beanty atared al by tbe world outside. Such is Luoy Arnold's birthplace, or auch It was when I first aaw it. Sbe ia fady now and old, but in her youth you might have observed tbe influence which ber bome and ita associations had upon her; you might hare seen the aunshlne of the plaoe re¬ fiected in ber amile, and heard tbe gleefal Botmd of the wind in her roice and langh.— Alas, what changea do we find.
And James Arnold spoke to Luoy, as bis wife had said, not gently, as a father sboald, but in a tone of commaud, bidding her give np all thought of one whom her young heart had chosen, and whom abe lored with all the de¬ votion ofau unselfish nature.
The eye of the brare girl flashed; her lip quirered. "NeverI so long as life lasts 1*' She spoke nothing in reply, but inwardly ahe resolred that rather tban yield in this one thing ahe would glre np every otber—bome, frienda, all—she wonld teach, work, slave, rather than resign the bope of one day becom¬ ing the wife of Leonard Grant.
Mr. Amold, altbongh no one knew his daughter's nature better than he, aecretly be¬ lieved in her ultimate conformity to his de¬ sires. As to Leonard Grant, he bad no par¬ ticular dislike—nevertheless, he considered him no fit matoh for Lney. Tbe Arnolds were of good family. The greater number of them were wealthy, while the otber, not ex¬ cepting Lucy's lather, were comparatively pi'or, and conseqnently all the more prond aud desirous of combating witb tbose of their rel¬ atives witb wbom fortune had been more in¬ dulgent. The mother of Leonard Grant ^as a aecond cousin of Mra. Arnold—thia waa an¬ otber objection in James Amold'a mind, to his marriage witb Luoy, although there were few instanced in whiob one oftbe family bad mar¬ ried outside of il. Not only was Mr. Arnold aure of entire and perfect saccess In all bis plans, hut he had eren fixed upon a husband for his daughter.
There waa a suspioioa of thia in the minda of bolh Leonard Grant and Luoy aa lhey atood conrersing under the shadow of the maples one ereniug in Oclober. It waa the first time they had met since her father bade her relin¬ quish all thoughts of him aa her future hua¬ hand.
"Lucy,'* said Leonard, and the yonng man's roice trembled witb suppressed emotion, "oan
it be that he meana you sball marry "
Leonard Grant paused ere he uttered the name; it waa a hateful one to him now, and hia tongne refused to utter it.
" I hare reason to suppose so," answered Lucy, without waiting for him to finiah the qnestion. "He haa called hera more fre¬ quently lhan I would wlah ainoe hia return."
" And yon will not "
" Leonard 1" interrupted hia companion," do yon suppose me capable of marrying one whom I do not lore f Marry a man becanse of his wealth 1 Do yon auppose me capable of auoh treachery to yoa and myself? No, Leonard, I will be faithful to you even in death 1"
The wind aobbed in the treea above tbem, and scattered the dead leaves upon tha grass. It waa a capricious, fitful night, wilh warm gusts tbat broke at interrala after a long and breathleaa atillness, likea' burst of grief that forces itaelf from the heart.
" Lucy 1" aaid a stem voice from the door¬ way. " I wish you to come In at once." The tone was one of stem commaud. It was not a request, but a harsh, brntal order. The girl stood firm and mored not, sare to . tum her lace toward the speaker. As tbe light l^m the window fell upon it, ber dark flashing eye and compressed Up rerealed plainly the feel¬ ing tbal oaused her proud bosom to heare and her brow to flash.
" Lucy 1" still she mored not, bnt looked defiantly at the speaker, who stepped from out the doorway and took her ronghly by the arm, The leaves fell faater and the wind moaned among the branches/
"James I Jam^P'sidd the rolce of Mrs. Amold from within. Mer^ huabaud heard It not, nor releaaed his hold, when the form of Leonard Grani was thrnst hetween. him and
IiBJOJ.
''' ""'Wlip:^* 760, sir, .t£at you intirfere to'set my aathbritj ai ^aflanoe P* denunded Mr. Ar- .nold- ¦.' --.i ¦ "'  ¦• ¦ "'
Leonard Grant made no reply, but, taking the trein'bling'glrl in hia arma, carried her Into the honaa. Huniedly preaaing hte lipa to her forehead, he tiook his departnre allently, paaa- ing B(r. Amold at the door.
His way lay paat the riUiage, along a quiet lane, and aoroaa. flelds that bordered a deep rarine, throagh which a swift torrent roared aind tumbled orer ithe rooka into deep, dark podia, where, awinglng ronnd, in rapid circlea it plunged on again over rocks and into other pools<^roaring, hissing, swelling and foaming, aa if possesaed by a legion of demons. Leon¬ ard's (Grant's mind waa baaily thinking orer what had paaaed but a few moments before. It appeared like an ugly dream, fiom which he hadjuat awoke. Across the flelda he heard the wild atream daahing and bellowing out of the night, aeeming to sympathize in Its unrest with tfae turbulent nature of his thoughts.
He stepped slowly, nor raiaed hia head to look about him, while the dark aky above, woven withdrifting broken fragmenta of clond, throagh which the pale mobn aeemed scadding like a white aail, began to let fall the first heavy drops of rain. Unoonsolous. of thia he pursaed his way, nor paused until within a few yarda of the rarine, where the path took a sudden tum, swerrlng off to the right and following the direction ofthe stream. Sudden¬ ly he raised hia byes, and stood face to face with the man whom of all others he regarded aa his'foe.
"AllenBradford 1" said Leonard, standing still, and looking at the peraon be thna addres¬ sed.
"Thatis my name, Leonard Grant," said the other.   " We were schoolmates out^e. " "We are rirals now I" replied Leonard.
" No,not rirals. Ido not oonsider you in that light," anawered Bradford, coldly endeav¬ oring to pass.
" No I" said Leonard. " If not rirala then we are foea. You cannot leave thia spot un¬ til we hare decided the qneation."
Tbe wind moaned louder thau before, and scattered tbe learea like chaff. Then every¬ thing seemed hushed; even tbe sonorona tor¬ rent appeared to pause in Ita apeed, to liaten to tbe tread ^f feet, the wild senffle, the craok- llngoftwlga, tbe swaying toand froof forma amid the bruab, the cry of the startled bird, aa it fled from ita resting place in tbe branchea, and tben the wan and liqald moon looked out from a rift in tbe olouda, and in the dead, white light, the two man atraggling in one another's grasp—^neared the precipice.
Nearer and nearer, swaying to and froi clutching eaoh other more firmly, rooking like saplings in a gale, stamping the dead leaf deep Into the soil, until tbe extreme verge waa reached, when both went orer, oraahing, tear¬ ing away the Hmba, down, down, ontil too far, to be heard. Into the abysa below. Then the untanieahle, bead long, insatiable atream seemed^o send np a ory of hungry delight, loader and more deafening. The broad, black desert of doad shook down the antnmn raint in torrents, and no haman being witnessed the dreadfnl straggle, aare the poor homeless wretch, who lay ahirering under tbe bushes and firom whoae lipa I heard tbe recital of it.
THE LAST SHILLING.
He was eridently a foreigner, and poor. Aa I a&t at the oppoaite oomer of the Sou^hgate atage, I took a mental inventory of hia ward¬ robe. A military cloak muoh the worse for wear—a blue coat, tbe worae for tear—a*nap- leas hat—a ahirt neither wbite nor brown—a pair of mud-colored gloves, open at each thumb—gray trousers too ahort for his legs, and brown boots too long for his feet.
From some words be dropped I found tbal be had come direot from Paris to undertake tbe daties of French teaoher at*an Eoglish academy; and his companion, the English classical usher, had been aent to London to meet and eacort him to hla suburban destina¬ tion.
Poor deril, thought I, tbbu art going into a bitter, bad line of busineas, and tte hundredth ahare wbioh I had taken In the boyish perse- cations of my own Frenoh master an emigre of the old noblesse—amote riolently on my conscience. At Edmonton the coaoh atopped. The coachman alighted, pulled tbe bell of a manaion inacribed in larga letters, Veapaalan House, anddeposited the foreigner'a tmnka and boxea on the footpath. The Eugliah classical uaher atepped briskly ont aui* deposited a shilling in the coachman's anlle'patory band. Monsieur followed tbe example, and with some preclpitalion prepared to enter the gate oftbe fore-garden, bnt the driver stood Inthe way.
" I want another ahiiiing," aaid the coach¬ man.
" Yon agreed to take a ablUing a head," aaid the Bnglish master.
" You said you would take one shilling for my bead," said the French master. " It'a for the luggage," eaid tbe coachman. The Frenchman aeemed thnnderstrnok; but there waa no help for it. He pulled out a small, weazal-bellied, brown silk purse, bnt there waa nothing in it sare a medal of Na¬ poleon. Tben he felt in bia breast-pockets, then hia aide-pocketa, and tben his waistcoat- pockela; but they were all empty, excepting a metal snnff-box, and that was empty, too.-^ Laatly, he felt the pockets In tbe flaps of bis coat, taking out a meagre wonld be white handkerohief, and ahaking It; bat not a damp. I rather expect he anticipated tbe resalt, but he went throagh the operations lertattm, with tbe true French grarity. At laal he taraed to hia companion, wiih a " Mistare Barbiere, be • as good to lend me one shilling."
Mr. Barber, thus appealed to, went through something of the same ceremony. Like a blue¬ bottle cleaning Itself, he paased his hands over his breaat, round hia hips, and down the out¬ side of bis thighs, bul the sense of feeling could detect nothing like a coin.
" Yon agreed for a shilling, and you shall have no more," said the man with empty pookets.
" No—no—no—you shall hare no more,' said the moneyless Frenchman.
By this time the housemaid of Yespaaian House, tired of standing with the door in ber hand, bad come down to the garden-gate, and willing to make herself generally useful, laid ber hand ont>ne ef the foreigner's trunks.
"It shan't go till I'm raid my ahiiiing," said the coachman, taking hold ol the handle at the other end.
The goo^d-natured housemaid instantly lei go of the tmnk, and aeemed auddenly to be bent double by a riolent cramp, or atitch, in her right aide, wbile her hand groped busily under her gown. Bnt It was in rain. There waa nothing in that pocket bat aome curl¬ papers and a brass thimble.
The stitch or cramp then aeemed to attack her other aide; again she stooped and fumbled while hope and doubt atruggled together on her rosy face.. At last hope triumphed—from the extremest comer of tbe huge dimity pouob sh'e.fiabed up a solitary coin, and thruat it ex- uliihgly into tbe obdnrate palm.
'** It won't do," aaid the coachman, caating a wary eye on the metal, and holding onl for the inspection of the trio a allrer-waahed cor¬ onation medal, whioh had been purchased of a Jew for twopence tbe year before.
The poor girl quielly set down the trunk whioh Bbe had again taken up, and restored the deceitful medal to her pocket. In tbe meantime the arithmetical nsher had arrired at the gate in hia way ont, but waa atopped by the embargo on the luggage.
" What'a the matter now ?" aaked the man of figures.
"If yoa please, sir," sjdd the housemaidi dropping a low courtesy, ** it's this -impudent fellow of a ooaohman will stand here for hia rights.'* »   .
" He wanta a Bhilling more than his fare,*' aaid Mr. Barber.
"He does wanympn.thau his to shilling,** reiterated tha Frenollm^n.
" Coaohman 1 .^rhat the ^erlLare we waiting here for f'shouted a aientoriui roloe from thb rearof the stageV^ '    -
** Bless me, John, are we'to. atiyr here all day T" cried a vdae frbih tbe'stageV interior. * If you don't get iip'ahortly I shall get down," bellowed a voios from the box.
At this crisis the Eoglish usher drew his fellow tutor aside, and' whispered iacmething in hiB ear that made him go through the old manual exerclael   He slapped his pantaloons
flapped his coat-tails, and felt about his boabm.
"I haven't got one," said he, and, witha shake of the head and a hnrried t)OW, he set off at the pace of a twopenny postman.
"I ain't going to stan^-here all day," sidd the coaohman, getting out of all reaaonable patience.
"You are an infernal scoundrelly rillain,'* aud Mr. Barber, getting out of all olassioal Engliah.
" You are a—what Mr. Barbier saya," aaid the foreigner.
" Thank God and hia goodness," ejaculated the bouaamald, " here comea the dootor."
And the portly figure of the pedagogue him¬ aelf oame atriding pompoualy down the grarel walk. He had two thick lips and a double ohin, which all began wigging together.
"Well, well; what'a all thia argumentatire elocution P   I command tamtumlly."
"I'm a ahiiiing ahort," said the ooaohman.
" He saya he has got one abort ahiiiing," said the foreigner.
"Poo—poo—poo," aaid the thlok lipa and double chin. "Pay the fellow hia superfluous claim, and appt^al to magialerlal anihority."
"It's what we mean to do, sir," said the English usher; "bnt—"and he laid his Hpa myaterioualy to the doctor'a ear.
" A pecanlary bagatelle^" aaid the doctor.— ^'It's palpable extortion—bnt I'll disburse it— and yon hare a legislatorial remedy for his ararioioua demanda."
As the man of pomp said tbia he thrust his forefinger Into an empty waistooat pocket— tben into ita fellow—and tben into erery pooket he had—^but without any other prodnot than.a bunch of key?, two ginger lozengea, and the Frenoh mark.
" It'a Tery peonliar," said the dootor; had^a prepossession of harlng currency to that! amount. Tbe ooaohman musl oall tomorrow: Iot it at Vespasian Hous»—or atay, I peroeire my housekeeper. Mrs. Plummerl pray just atep hither and liquidate thia little oommeroial obligation.".
Now, whether Mra. Plummer had or had not a shilling, Mra. Plummer only knowa; for ahe did not condescend to make any search for it; and if she bad none, she was right not to take the trouble. Howerer, she attempted to carry tbe point by a coup de main. Snatching up one of the boxes, she motioned tbe housemaid to do the like, exclaiming in a ahrill treble-' key:
" Here's a pretty work, indeed, about a pal¬ try shilling I If it's worth harlng, it's worlh calling aKain for; and I suppose Vespasian Honae is not going to rnn away 1"
"Bnt may be / am," aaid the inflexible coaohman, seizing a trnnk with eaob band.
" John, I insist on being let out I" acreamed the lady in the coach.
"I ehall be too late for dinner," roared the thunderer in the dicky.
Aa for the passenger ou the box, he faad made off daring the lalter part of ths alterca¬ tion.
" What sfaall we do ?" aaid tfae Engliah clas¬ sical usher.
"God and hia goodness only knows I" said tbe housemaid.
" I am a stranger in this country," said tfae Frenchman.
" You mnst pay the money," said the coach¬ man. .^ '
" And faere it is, you brate I' said Mrs. Plum¬ mer, who bad made a trip to the faouse in tbe meantime ; but whelher ahe faad coined it, or raised it by a anbacription among the pupila, I know no more than the man in the moon.
In' thts'regud we 'fall, ihat'aewJi^ ']i^6t' niade a'regular branch of edubatibn.'
What we know we bando weU we generally do with pleaanre; anything acoompllahed with aloir' and painful effort we afarlok from. Therefote should sewing be well tanght and well learned. In tfae upa and do wha bf Uta In tfab ofaanging country no one bf ua is secure againat tfae possible neoeasity of doing her own sewing, if not of earning a livelihood or eking out a .scanty income by needle-work. In an extensive establiahment, I hare been aaaured that ladles now oame for work aa employment, wfao formerly came in their oar¬ riages to hare their work done.
Some will leam the art athome; many will not; therefore, I would hare aewing made a brancfa of education. It ia no waste of time— you need not frown. Drop bne " ology" and take it'up. " Ybn may nerer - need it I" So you may not need drawing, or cfaemistiy, or oonio sectiona. You may need it; and there¬ fore, let teacher^, be prorided, and so make up for the defiotenoies of rich and poor. You need not eay, "Leam at home." I suppose girls would leam to write at bome, if tfae art were neglected at aofaool.   Bat faow ?
" Sewing macfainea." 0 yea I To do tfae atraightfonvard Jmdgeiy, tfae atltoblng and tfae dull atraight seems; but they neitfaer cnt nor fit, nor ttim oomera, nor finish neatly, nor supply braina aud judgement. As soon glre up leaming to write beoause tfaere are print¬ ing macfainea.
Snppoae an hour a day were giren to aew¬ ing in our pnblio aofaools, and faow it would iell* Tfae cfaildren more Udy and independent, more oarefal; mauy a worn mother reliered by a helpful daughter; women betler prepar¬ ed for life—able to work for tbemselres, or to judge if othera do tbeir work well; those who are poor prepared to take care of themselves, or to work for otfaera, and all armed against drudgery, for it Is seldom drudgery wfaicfa we oan do well. Tfais is tbe practical view of " sewing as a flne art." For another aide of the queatlon, I quote
"thbbohabcb op thb needle." "What a wondel ful thing ia tbia matter of sewing ? It began in Paradise, and was the earliest fruit of the fall. Amidst the cder of flowera, and by the aide of meandering streams, and under the shade of tbe dark green foliage, tbe cowering forma of the gnilty progenitora of onr race bowed in anguish and ahame as they took the flrat lessons in tbat art which faaa erer eince been' the mark of servitude or sorrow. And yet tfae curae has not been witboat Ita blesflng. I " The needle witb the tbimble faaa done for man tfaan the needle of tbe compass. The needle-work of tbe tabernacle Is the moat an¬ olent record of the art. Early nsed to adorn the reatmenta of the priests, it was honored by God himaelf, and became a type of beanty and bolinesa. * Tbe king's daughter Is all glorious wlthla; ber olothing ia of wronght gold; she aball be brought unto the king In raiment of needle-work.' The magnificence of kingly pomp, tbe Imposing spectacles of reUgion or weallh, tbe tribute of honor to tfae great, the oharm of dignified aooiety, tbe re¬ fined altraclions of beauty, are dependent upon the needle."

Claude came in one aummer day with a broad black band on hia hat.   I had noticed tfaat tfae atyle witfa young men waa a blue cord with a little taasel, and Claude paid altention to tbese amall maters of fasfaion and taate. But now tfae broad band nearly corered tbe crown of bis atraw hat. " What now, Claude!" "Oh, auntie I I've gone Into mourning." " Folly, child ; wbat do yon mean ?" t " Sober earnest, auntie mine ; I hare reason. Edith doea not know a thing about aewing.   I asked faer to mend a liltle rip in my new glore, jmt ao that I might see the inside of her pret¬ ty, fanciful  retionle, and her  little fingera playing witfa tfae needle, when she assured me tfaat afae faad neither Ihimble nor needle, and nerer sewed at all.   'Justine always mends my glores, If they erer are mended.   I do not know.' " I'm a broken-hearted man," sighed Claude. " What are we to do ? and it's too late; I'm in for it.   Can't she learn V " Will she leam, Claude ?" " Ab, there's the rub. When I said, 'What¬ erer will you do witfa yourself ?' ah^_answered, 'Derote myself to you, Claude.'   All wbich was rery fiattering, no doubt; but, entre nou<, auntie, I Ihongbt of Darid and Dora, and I always did feel aorry for David."
Foor Claude 1 tbey all went away the next day, and I nerer heard how they aettled it; but I fear me if Edith haa come to the rerge of twenty, ignorant of one of womBn'a,pbief eat accomplismenta, ahe will flnd it rather too late to learn.
I am aorry aewing ia going out of faahion. There are lota of it to be done. All join in tbe ory, mothera and daughters, I hate sewing, it ia drudgery," And Tom follows auit, and and apeaka alightin($ly of Miss May, because her forefinger bears the marks of the needle, like a aeamatreasf forsootfa 1"
Now, don't auppoae I am going to plead for sewing as tfae great business of woman's life ; carried too far, it may be a waste of time and strength to aew; butaa a feminine accom¬ plishment I must plead for It. Some oustoma are apoken aa time-honored, and this ia one, and one which ia really and trnly woman'a business. Tfaere may be exceptlona—mascu¬ line woman, women of basiness, women who lire for gaeity; but we need not waate onr time on exceptional caaes. It Is unnatural for a woman to be wbolly given to literature, or art, or gayety. Snob pursuits are usually subordinate to her womanly life. Home du¬ ties are really her apfaere; andin tbe perfor¬ mance of tfae care and watch wfaiofa often do not occupy faer faands, it is no interruption to have those handa employed. They may be buay while tbe mind ia free.
Tbe literary women wfaom I hare aeen hare been alao akillful with the needle, and hare found Its use a pleasant relief; for a fewfaoura ol mental labor anffice to exhaast the nerroua energy. Some of our most succeasful writers among men hare been those with whom wri¬ ting waa aubordinate to some other occupa¬ tion.
Sewing is a resource. An old writer aays of a certain queen: "She was skillful with the needle, and fond of work as aorrowful women are erer apt to be."
The thoughts are free,' and yet one is not entirely idle. There Is not the inanity of ait¬ ting still.
Sewing ia faUing into diarepute; the busy woman has no time; tbe idle woman Is too lazy; the nouveaux, riches pretend to despise tbe art; tfae indolent are too careleas, and tfae poor are too ignorant. Erery woman wfao from any of tfaeae cauaes, grows up in ignor¬ ance, insures tfae negleot in one or more daughteiB, and so the evUte multiplied.
Yet the Umea are improring. I am not one of thoae wfao lore to croak, or to disregard the' Soripttlre, ahd:to aay ," the former daya wen better than theae;" bat I maat owa:thai^
A SNOEING WIFE.
Talk about your scolding wires and your smoky obimneya, but they ain't nowwhere— tbey ain't a circumstanoe I I would ratfaer hare a chimney tbat emita amoke enoagh to cure the whole family, and be forced to live with a dozen Xantippes all togeiher—let tbem be ever so much predisposed in lavor- of " sprinkling with (un) holy water,"—than have to '* put np " with a snoring wife I Oh I the very idea makes a nervous man tremble- from the top of fala atore-pipe faal to about a foot below tbe aolea of bia boots 1 A snoring wifel    Boo-o-ool
Bnt I started oat to tell a story, and I am going to do it.
Well, "in life's morning march when my bosom was young," I wooed and won tfae bi'au- tiful and accomplished Miss Ann Dash. The difficulties of the courtship I will not here en umerate, for tbey will not weare into the plan of this story, whioh ia intended to be ahori— rery ahort.
The appointed lime for the wedding arrired, and hundreds of yonng people, from far and near, aaaembled at tfae manaion of tfae old man Dash to witness the ceremony, and " trip tbe ligbt fantastic toe." It waa a brilliant wed¬ ding, and " happiness—onr being's end and aim" —was oura. When a couplereallylore, their wedding day ia the happiest of tbelr lives; tbey look baok to tbat day as a brigfat oaaia in tfae desert of tbeir memory. Abou two o'clock In tbe moming tbe company broke np, and we went to bed.
Before I got to sleep, Nanoy began lo anore / I was dumbfounded.
"Great God 1" I mentally ejaculated, "is tbia a reality f la it poaaible that I am bound up for life to a woman who snores ?"
I waa miaerable. I thought *aver Pope'e couplet.
" Oh I tbougbtlees mortal. OTsr blind to fate, 100 soon dtj eoted and too soon elate /"
Here I had been jasl a moment before in ec¬ stacies over tbe poasession of, aa I thought, a tnasurel Can I love her? I asked ofmy heart.   And the answer instantly oame :
" It la impoaaible 1"
I debated with myaelf whelher or nol I abould " eecede," but anorlng was nota ground of divorce. It ought to be—"you bet," laat up in the bed, and from thinking, I went to talking.
" I can't and won't atand this. PU just get np and leave, let tbe oonsequencea be what tbey may. I loved her, I know, but I did not know tbat she snored /'*
About this time I noticed tbat ahe had quit anoring, and was shaking the bed with anp- presded langhter.
I began to aee tfaat I was sold 1 There never was a poor deril before nor since tbat rejoiced more at discovering that he had'been sold.
" Wby," said abe, " I thonght yon promised to lake me for better or for worae, but here you are laiaing a row, and threatening lo leave me at tbe first little fault yea find about me."
*' Well," aaid I," I will make the aame prom¬ ise again, if you won't snore; but I'll be hanged if I would live witfa a snwing wife ten minutea."
Did you eyer see a aelfiah child? Well, let me present yoa with .the picture of one. It waa ti^en from life not.;l great wfaile ago ; so zeaen;y7^:infaot,aa tpoonrtnpe me tfaat tbe race of stingy boya and giria Is not entirely extinct in the world. And it ia barely posaible that eome of the little readera of tfae Examin¬ er may diaoorer a family resemblanoa be¬ tween themaelvea and this portrait. The pic¬ ture Is an original likeneaa of Boae Thome.
Boae aidled np to her papa as he waa going orer to hia office one morpipg, and in a rery confidential manner, looking round alily thia way and tfaat way, leat any one ebould obaerre ororerhear, "Papa," aaid ahe, "bring me home a lemon to-night, will yoU V I lore lem¬ ons, and I haren't had one tbis erer ao long." "Alemon r* exolaimed papa, "pray what would you do with a lemon, Rose ? They're aour thinga, not fit to eat. You want some lemonade, eh P*
"Oh, I kuow, papa, wfaall wantof it. You bring me oue, won't you f I like »em, they're sp goqd. I like 'em ever so muoh better tfaan oranges."
"There's no accounting for tastes, to be sure," said papa, good-naturedly, and off fae went to his business. I
Fathers don't rery oftsn forget the requests of their cfaildren. Ob, faow ready they alwaya are to gire lhem "good gifta"—whioh makea me think what the Lord Jesns Chriat said about that rery thing when be lired here npon tbe earth. Ifyou will take yonr Testaments and turn to Matthew ril. II, you may read fais rery words. Tbey are beautifnl words, wfaiofa you will do well to learn and remember all yonr lives long, thongh they bave notbing in particular to do witfa the story I am telling.— But I couldn't help stopping to mention this' Well, wfaen Rose's papa oame bome at night sure enongh fae faad brougfat the lemon witfa faim—a splendid, great one, aa fair and yellow as<you could erer wiafa to see. She was faand, you may be oertain, to get it. As fae was banging up hia coat on the atand, fae oal¬ led bia little girl, and put hia hand into bis pookel for the present. Rose looked all roond to see if any one was by before ahe took it.— She sr&8 one ol a large family, and it was quite a wonder tbat sfae was alone ; but afae wae t and no doubt abe conaldered it quite a fortu nate circamatanoe. I don't know bow abe wonld bave managed if Harry .or Sae or little Lucy had popped in tbelr beada jnst at that moment.
" Ob, thank you, tbank yoa, father. It's a aplendld one, isn't it?" cried the cbild with delight. "Tm so glad I've got It," she aaid, rolling it over and over in her handa for a minute, ard tben taking a good sniff al its perfumed skin. Then sbe hastened to put it into her pocket, and sbe had quite a job to get It in, It was so big.
When the family were seated at the tea- table, Rose was missed.
" Where'a Rose? whero's Rose.'"' was tbe general Inquiry.
" Call ber, Harry," aaid the molber. *' I oalled her onoe, mother, and ahe said she wasn't hangry : she didn't want any supper." "She's out in the garden," said Sue ; "Isaw faer ther^."
"Perhapp abe took her aupper In her hand," aaid consin Mary; I "noticed ahe waa eating aometfaing."
Wherenpou Harry laughed, and exchanged a very knowing look across the table with Suti. " What is   the  meaning of that ?" asked motber.
" I guess abe'a got all she wanta," answered Harry. " She's out tbere eating a lemon. I don't know where she got it, but ahe hid it under her apron quick enough when she saw me."
"Nobody. ' I ate it erery mite myaelf and I wish you'd bring me anpther Bome d^, will youf"
"Waa it sweet,Roalef"
" Oh no, it was dreadful sour. It made my eyes wink—bat I liked iO*
"I tbiuk if yon had had a sprinkling 0{ sugar on it, my cbild, It would have tasted better—tba sugar of lore and generosity;" and fatber looked very steadily into Rose's eyes till they sank down beneath the long lashes, and ahe said " good-nlgfat" quite demurely, and walked up to bed.
Wbat mother said toher up there it la no matter to lell. Bat Hoae nerer Ulked about lemona afterwarda rery freely, and when ahe did mention the word, tbere was generally a little titter, a strange reference to pigs, aolitary walka, and pleaaant smiles; things whicfa aeemed to bare no conneotion at all with one anotber.
I hare faung my piotnre, little readers. Do you see it in a good light ? Wfao does it look likef
"I afaould think it waa taken for our Mary," I hear one little girl say; " it's juat exactly like her."

TaOTJBLESOME CHILDfiEK.
When you gel Ured of their noise, justthink wbat the chauge would be abonld it come to a total ailenoe. Nature makes a provision for Btengthening tfae children's lunga by exercise. Babies oannot laugh so as to get muob exerciae in this way, but wa nerer heard of one that could not cry. Crying, shoutiug, screaming, are nature's inng exercise, and it you do not widh, for ii in Iheparlor, pray hareaplace de- roted to It, and do not debar the giria from it, witb the notion that it is improper for thtm to laugh, jnmp, cry scream, and run raoea in the open air. After a whiie one geta nsed to thia jurenile music, and can eren write and think more conseoutively witb it tban withoat it, prorided it does not run into objngatory forma. We remember a bay that naed to go to soholi paat oaf study window, and he general¬ ly made a continuous stream of roar to the school honse and back again. We auppoaed at first he had been nearly murdered by some one, and had waated considerable compassion on tha wronga of infant innocence ; but, on In- qniring into bia care, found him in perfectly good condition. The truth was, that the poor little fuilow had no mirtbfulneaa in his ootU- poaition, therefore couldn't langh and abont and 80 nature, in her fttaecompensationa, bad given him more largely the faculty of roaring. He seemed to thrive upon It, and we believe ia atill doing well. Laugbing and ballooing, howerer, are to be preferred, unleaa a child ebowa a decided incapacity for thoae exerciaea.

"A lemon 1" uttered mother, in surprise.
Jast tben fatber waked up to the suhject.
"Why, yes," said he, "I brougbt her bome one. Tbe child asked me for it this morning, but it can't be possible she's eating it all alone."
" She's doing that rery thing, in the moat approved atyle, after ber own faahion," aaid Harry; and then the cfaildren laugfaed a queer little laugh again, suoh a one as made mother feel rery badly.
Did you erer hear a laugh tbat made you feel aorry! Mothers do sometimes. Laughs don't alwaya make those around you feel joy ons and bappy.
Thla one made Rose's mother feel t;«rysad. It said to ber as plainly aa words, that one of her children was selfish—so selfish that tfae others could not esteem and lore her; and a sharp pain thiilled throogb her beart at the quick thought of the sorrow her little girl waa laying up for herself for coming daye, and of the shadows that would fall on ererybody that would erer come near her. For, ohlldren, sel¬ fish people never bring sunbeams along with them. They oast shadows aroand tbem—oold dark sbadows. Snob aone jast at tbat mo- moat fell opon Roae'a mother, and made her very uncomfortable.
When tbey rosi* from tbe table Mrs. Thome went to the window and looked out. Yes. there was Roae, pacing up and down the gar den walka. As ahe walked down away from the bouae, ahe beld her handa np and ber head down, and acted jaat aa tbooich sbe was eating something. When ahe came up toward tbe bouae her faanda were behind ber, and ahe came along amacklng her lipa. and acted jaat aa though abe bad been eating Bometbiog, all tbe while casting her eyes aboat at tbia win- (iow and that, to aee if any one was lookiug Mother saw it atl, and tbeie were tears In her beart, if she didn't let them fall from ber eyes. Tben fatber came, and he saw it all too, and was greatly displeased.
" Wbo would bave tboaght it?" said be, " wbeu we take each pains to teach the chil¬ dren to abare their good things wilh oue anotber ? I gnesa wben I brini; her anything again ahe'll know it;" and be tarned and walked away.
When motber came up staira there were the otber children peeping throngb the blinds at tbeir liltle sister and making fan al her ex¬ pense.
" The little pig 1" exolaimed Sae.
" Nitten pig ? me see," cried baby Lucy.
"Yea, you ahall aee, darling. There's the nitten pig down tbere dressed up in Rose's clothes. You'U never be nitten pig, will you?"
" Pig t Rosie f What makes pig in Rosle V aaked tbe cbild.
Then the ohildren laughed, and Harry, being tfaa eldest, undertook to explain.
" She's selfish, Rosie Is, Lacy. You see, papa gave ber a lemoo, and abe never gave a bll lo anybody, bnt went off and ate It all alone. She's stingy, jnst like the pigs. D'ye aee? Luoy won't bs selfish, will sbe ?"
" No 'deed, no 'deed, Luoy won't," and sbe ran off singing "Piggy, wiggy, let me in," with moch earnestness. To be aure, thaV bad no immediate connection with wbat she had aeen and heard, hut speaking of pigs made her think of the liltle eong cousin Mary so often anng to her.
Wben the gaa waa lighted Rose waa in her naual place at the center table, reading. Bhe appeared very much as if notfaing faad hap¬ pened, only that there was a peculiar lemony fragrance in the room. Harry and Sue amiled ocoasionally aa they remarked tbat "aomethlng smelled uncommonly good ronnd there," but Roae was quite unconsoiona.
When ahe went to bed, ber fatfaer said as fae kissed her.   " Was it good, Roale !"
"Yea,papa, itwas real good,"said ahe in a wbiaper, turning round to see If Harry and Sue were looking. But they were atadylng most Intently, though anybody that looked on the right side might have aeen a rery little querl of a amile ih one comer of tfae mouth, and a merry twinkle ahont tbe eye.
" Did yon eat it all np, Rosie V*
"Yea, papa, erery bit, akin and alL"
" Who helped yoa T" aaked papa, scaroely ooscealing a aniUa hlmselt
