The fact was, that aftiM'a walkiufj-toiir of some weeks 1 had arrived iu liau.iior tlic ]H'evions cvenius, with m.v knajKick we!! stock¬ ed with fern-i;—coimnon as 1 afterwards discovered, iu ail jiarls of Ihe ruiled Kiiisdoni—with -aevera! -specini.'Us of the liritisli hiUtcrlly {J'lipilhi rii.'i/irr!'.), with a hook fnll of water-color skelclus i'lt greatly v.'orlli lookiii.i; at, am! v.itli no nioiie.v worth siieakiii^ of at all; for ill the coulideut exjieclation of (indiiij; a rcuiiltaiice awaitiic-j; mc here, f had allowed my halanee of I'ash to sink so low, that even if I had lost it, the fall to actual l>cinir.v would have heeu any¬ thing Imt a .severe one.
Untler these ciretiiuslaiiccs a ila.v's de¬ ia.v in the arrival ofthe monc.S' was an- no.vinij, but still—it was certain to como the uext tlay; -Bantror was a jilaee of coiislderable'iuterest, autl liere was a line opportuuity for Ihoi'onsjhly doing it.— So, breakfast over, T .set to work at once, antl really when you do regularl.v set to work upon a thiug, it's surprising how -soon yon get it (lone. Wlien you tling ytiurself heartil.y into the husine-s-s it's li uishct! in uo time, at lettst Bangor ivas: done from one end to the other aud back again. Thu Docks, tin; Cathedral, the Menai Bridge, aud the Tubular—the Tuhnlar Britlge, the lleuai, tho Cathe¬ dral autl tho Docks. '-Vnd what ou earth wasItodouextV Luncheon! of course.
fo 1 returned to the hotel aud lunched, iwas carl.-v'in the season: Itvasalniost t he ouly irei'soii ataj-lng iu the hotel, and houee ciijo.voti a great iiart of the wait¬ er's attention. I asketl 'whether there were any objects of interest in the neigh- 1 lorliood. The waiter, laking this oppor- t unity of clearing himself from an.v sus¬ picion I might have hnd that he was a native of the prlncipalit.y, informed niu that ho Wiis horn in London, that his last place liad been a wiaU known the¬ atrical liouse-of-caU not far from Drurv -Lane—fo this connection ho tloubtle.ss owed a Iiabit hu had of occasionally 11- lumintitiug his eonvei'sation with quti- tations from Shakespeare—that he had tiiily come to Bangor at the entl of Ittst season, ami ]iroposed leaving atthe end iif this; and theu, in answer to my tjuefs- lion, mentioned slate quarries.
As T felt certain that! should hnve to lip somehod.v if I visited these excavu- , lions, r tohl the waiter I diil not cave *^ lor slate iiuarrics. The waiter proceeded 1 o speak of a model villtige close at htuid. Tliere couhl be uo getting away from a model villa.ge, of couree, witliout paying for my footing; so 1 affected a coiuiileto indiU'eience for model village-s, and, I fear, left the waiter to conclude that I liad two or three of them on my own property at home.    The waiter next hiiitctl at a niu-sciiin, antl inenlionetl, in glowing terms, a muium.y and a sword- lish ns being chief amongst tht; curiosi¬ ties therein contained.   Supposing that there were nothing to pa.y, the museum might have done, so I tislied if there was auy eutvanife fee.   The waiter replied Ihat there was, whereupon I told him that I could not visit the museum, as, in my  opinion, all  such  establishments ought to he free, in order tiiat the lower classes might inijirove their iriinds ivith miimniies and sword-fishes at no ex¬ pense to themselves.   The waiter-sail! tbat tlie charge was very small, i replied that it was not the sum hut the iiriuci- plu tt) which 1 olijccleil.
How I gottlirougli the rc-st of the thiy 1 scarcely know. T faiity iu the evening T smoked iny.scir into a comato.sc -state upon the jiier, in the coiiipanyof an old sailor, who, iindc.-the impression, appa¬ rentl.v, that ' ^v.•ts in the mai'ine-s, gave me a:i account of ;i mermaid wliich he hatl seen in latitude—it really does not matter what; -the reader may allow bim self what latitutle he likes-rtuul at thu conclusiou asked me to stand something- As 1 thought I liad already stood enough iu listening to his stoi'y, I gavo him a cigar, and returned to the hotel, and I reniember resolving, before I went to bed, that sooner than -stay.in Bangor for another  day I would disiioso of my sketches to the highest bidder, ami let my butterilies go for what they would fetch.
"Two letters for you, sir," said the
waiter, as 1 entered the coftiie-room next
morning.   The money at last, surely.—
Xo i iijion my honor!   One from Kitty,
with iiny tunouut of love in it, hut of
cour-se no nione.y;  and this—who on
earth was this from?   Oh, Merton.—
Pleasant hy Jove!   Another day here
-  now.    So  help  for it.    For I need
HCiirt!cly say that auy notions I may
have had of the money value of my j
sketches hatl vanished withthe morning
light.   So, just to spite tlie evil fortune
that kept me prisoner, I ordered the
most extravagant breakfa-st that I could
possibly think of, and ate it with tho
somewhat consoling  reflectioa that I
¦was ruperior to circumstances.    "Wheu
one is anxiously expecting a particular
thingwhichstiU does uotarrive, how its
absence detmots from the pleasure which
otiier letters would at another time of-
ford.   There were love aud frientlship
ready to my hand, aud T turned bul coldglances upon both. I])rotestKitty's afl'ection was above—fnr ahove nuggets. I esteem one glance of her eye superior to the sparkle of diamonds, and untold gohi could not repay me f"i' the loss of a smile of hew! and yet I confess that that morning f occiisit.nally skipped a senteiic'o or so hi those eiglit pages of crosseil lovo—dou't misundei'staud mo ; it was tlie writing that waa crossed— nnd it was with more than ray usual jiieasure that I received the a.ssurauce that she Avas my own aflijetionnte Kitty. AVhere love ohtainod so cold a wel¬ come, it may be supposed that frienil- .ship eame but poorly ofi: 1 opeuetl Mtjrtbn's lettersttvagel.v, and nicntall.v eriticisetl the contents as I reatl: "How- are you getting on'!" [What a senseless tiuestidu!] "Done oiauy sketches'." Take care how you enrry them in your knapsack," Pack them always in the middltj—in wicfZ/d, &c'.-; you know the rest." [Dont believe he does. ] " Knew a iniiii oiice"—[ By .Tpve ! he'sgoiugto tell a stor,y.] "carried-.them next.his hack-^prespired freelj-—came to unpack thcni at the ciul of his journey—sketch¬ es all spoiletl—staiiictl with perspiration. ' Ha!.' said I, 'you use hotly-color, I see' —riletl him awfully." [Very poor joke, it seems to me] " AVe miss you at the irricket matches." [ He generally does mi-ss people at cricket-matches.] "Play¬ ed the Biddlcstone last week, anil what tlo .you think"'" ["Why that .you got a ireiuendous thrashing] " Tliey heat us in, one innings." [Said so.] "-Mr. Jenkins asked after you; told him that yuii had heen all over Wales. ' All over weals!' said he, mistalving my meaning ' Has any one been dropping on him, sir'." Too,Liood a joke to spoil by an ex¬ planation." [AVell, X cant see it] " Left him hi his error, and he was niucli concenied, but iiopeful that change Of nir might remove all traccsof .your mis¬ fortune.;' [ A'ery kind .of .Tonkins.] "Dined at Sir JJic-hnlas's on Jfouday night-^met Hawkins there and ' his neice—and what tlo you think."' [AVhat do 1 think again: idiotic phritse.] " Hawkins's neice hits been through the Devil's Kitchen!"
This was such an aytouhding'piet:!-' of news, tliat I dropped the letter. AVhat ou earth, or under the earth, iloes he mean'? " The Devil's Kitchen'?" Ipvo. iiounceil the words so audibly that a very meek-looking clergyman, the only person besides niy-self in tlic room, who was about to seat himself at the table next mine, .started violentl.v, ivoiked himself to the liirthe-st eorner ofthe room hy a succession of sbudtlei'-s, and having ordered cotlije, eggs, and a muf¬ fin, sat dowu nnd stareil at me in a mournful manner over the top of the Jleeord.                    . . j
Been throu.gli the Devil's Kitchen? I Hawkin's neice! I remembered the girl distinctly—tall, hlack-eyed, good-look¬ ing .girl, but forward; ahv.nys.struekme as i'emarkably forward. There ivas some story about her having run away from school ivith the dancing nuLster ; knew lor certain that she hatl been en¬ gaged livetinie-s in four years; greatly fearetl that she'd make some absurd match some tlay; indeed, should not hnve been much surprised to liear that she'd run—hut, upon m.y life, going through the 1 couldn't understantl
it; audi turned to the letter agaiii, a course which, if .1 hatl only takeu it be¬ fore, would havuientiercdthisiiijurioHs soliloiiuy unnecessoi'y. TlieDevil's Kit¬ chen , Merlon ' inftirmed me, was the name given lo a chasm high uii in the mountains which seperate the Pass of Lhuiberries from the Pass of Nant Fran- goii; and through this chasm, accord¬ ing to Jlcrton, whose aulliority, I sup¬ pose, 1V.1S Hawkins's iiiece, itis possible for a clever mountaineer to make his wa.y from oue Pass to the other. He aiUled that the AVelsh called the place T wl-Du. Hercf then, was a way of pass¬ ing a tlay, instead of sauntering it over iu Bangor. I eoultl only be about ten miles from the scene of action. I would walk there, get through the Kitchen and back again, and return to Banger intimefordinner, Iwouldstiutatonee. It might, however, be advisable to pro¬ cure some directions as to the locality a little more definite tliaii Jterton's. "AVaitcr!" ".Sir. "
" AVhere's the Devil's Kitchen ?"   ' " Beg partlon, sir." . '
"AVhere is the Devil's Kitchen '!>' "AVell, really, sir—' pon ray word, sir—might' azartl a eonjticturc, hut— I hunraeutionabie to hears polite, sir." The menial evidently tiiought I was joking; so I assumed a.stern expres-sion tjf countenance, aud explained that, as I was given lo uutlcrstand, thercivas a ehusni in the nioiiutains not far from here whicli was called the Devil's Kit¬ chen : and tliat, as I wislied to visit it, if   he could give  mo no information about the place liimself, he had better go below, and make inquiries.
"Certainly, sir." said tlie waiter. "Most impleasaiit name, sir. Shakes¬ peare says: 'AA'hdt's in a "'-^-^ ,. ,^,. "AVill .you go at once," stiid I, intei^ rupting him, "and iniiuire -the-.exact locality of tiie"—
"Devil's Kitchen, sir | yes,'sir," said the waiter, interruiitiugme in my turii, aud gohig oH" promptly oh his-missioii. " Stay though," 1 called out; "per- li.ips the.v might know it befter hy its AVolsh name-the A\''el-sh callit twl- Du."
"Xow do they, though, sir? " .said the waiter, turning reflectively. I' Tool Jew! AVell, iiow,'I:sliould very muchlike to Tcnow what led 'cm. to take that, iine; ivliatthe.y think they mean by that in the habstract."
As niy face, however, shoivetl no de¬ sire lo spetiulate ou the auhject, lie turn¬ ed once more, and went oft" hastily. He soon retui'iicd with full particulars.   I was first ofall to go to tlie Falls of the' Ogweii, about ten miles from Bangor;, aiid when there, instead of turning to the left, w-ith the road along  the hank of Llyn Ogiyeu, I was tOitakc a footpath in front; arid walk for iialf a mile,till I camp to  Llyn Idwal.   Then  looking i across the lakej I should see in the side of the mountain a black cleft. This was tlie Devil's Kitchen, or the Blaek Hole; as the guities ealletl it.   But perhajis I would like a guide. Certainly not. • AVbuId I not have a ear to the Falls of thu Ogwen? Xo; I intentlutl to walk. At what timo would I wisli a car to meet me there in the evening? At no time; I meau to walk baok. Perhaps I ivould excuse the waiter's remarking that hover-fatigun was not
calculated to	
"Fill that brandy-liask." "Yes, sir. Pale or brown'?—Pale! cer¬ tainly, sir."
.Should I consider it a liberty in tlie waiter, just retturned with the braudy, if he were to call to my recollection the case of the young Hoxford gentleman, who, overtook by a fog at the summit of an 'eaven-kissing 'iU, as Shakspeare says, lost his way and his footing, and was found at the bottom of a precipice, with hoth his eyes  egstracted hy the
birds, and liis fiiee cut into	
"Sandwiches."-: '
" Certainly,sir.   '.Am Tbeef?—'Ail! I yes, sir."
.So I set ofl' victualled for my voya.ge, and happy to turn my back upon my place of captivity even for a few hours- It was a tlelightful morning, witli a bright sun, a fresh wiml, uml Hying eloiitls that might turn into rain or might not^that probably woultl bu ev¬ erything bj- turns, hutiiothing long. I was iu good walking trim, and as J was without the knapsack that hailhungut my iiack daily for the la-';t nionth, tillit had grown to seem one of the natural fardels of m.y walk througli life, I felt ligliter tlian human as I marched along) Away r went, lenving Bangor and my bill behind me; the town changed inlo the; country—the luxuriant county' of fields ahd hedge-row,?, Iree-s and crops <ifgra.ss, and gentle iiiiilulations. Gra- <luall,v the uiitltilatioiis became less and less gentle, the roatl was forced to twist ,and turn, in order to take ativaiitageof "thtj ground, the grass btjcanie .tliiuucr, the trees stumpier. Far below me on oiui side'dashed a nois.v brook; farabove mej tin the otheV some wiltl'-looking shcV'i) ivere feeding; then a bcntl iii the roatl j the Pass opened fairl.y hefore me, mountains Oli tlie right hand and on the left, iind at the end the .semicircle of iliouiitains ill wlitise lap is Llyn Idinil, and somewhere in whose recesses is the Devil's Kitchen; gone through by Hiiw- kiiis' iiibce;.

Voices of invisible- idiildren high iibovemeon my left; hark of an iiivisi- bIe;dog a long i\.ij bcloii mc on m.> right, .1 Hock of sheept io>'5iiig the io.itl ¦at full gallop, and taking the walls tm cither liaiitl like Irish hunters; a tem- peraiicL jniblic housu, i WeKhw om in, with an enoimouslj thick waist, anil ankle-s" to nintch; a shephertl, in appa- renth hopeless puisuit ol the sheip, and now, a.s I get near the head of the Pass, a sound of falling water, a slight curve in the road, ami here are the Falls of Ogwen, and the ro.id turning to the left along the shore of the lake. I leave the road, strike tliefootjiatli, and follow it as directed; till T come to a stop niioii the shore of a gloomy-lilack waved lliere, which looks, with-its savage sni- roundings, liken place "where no one conie-.oi hath tome sinit, tht nuking of the world." There it lies "among the tumbled fragmchtsof thehills," the gaunt mountains with their heads niuf- Hed ih clouils heiiiming it in, the wlitik sceno.in iivtul solitude, .in iiiten..L si¬ lence I stand lijll-.ippjIlLil bl till, lieaven-abantloned look of everything about mc, .md .is ray e>esii.indei fiom one point ol di-sol.ition to .inothei the ^ ptjreelve, high up in the mountain, on the further sitle of the lake,-a black cleft.

There was nothing to he done liut Vail, -o 1 sit tlown underneitb muU, pill up m.v umbrella,iigliteil a jiipe, and reflected th.it, although the ow nei of the Kitchen h.id lom^ iniiid .in iiitlis- initable right h) the .surrounding pio- jierty, yet the whole aftiiir lookeil as if it had heen for centuries in some iiifer- lial Ctiurt of Chamiery, such a scene was it of wrack and rum. Tliere is soiiie- thirig particularly weird and uiiOai'tlil.Y ahoiit Llyn Idwal. I can heller fancy one of "the Tahle Round" looking after ii dragon, or hunting up an eiiehanter upon the shores of Idival, thim nn.y- where else I know. The place has a .strange look of umeality about it: the lake looks a legendary lake; and the mists upon the niountaiusseeni like the mists of antiquity, ivliich, having al¬ lowed theiuselvesto be tolled back for a nioment in order to give us a peep in¬ to the past, are again creeping graduall.v over the scene, and hiding it from our view. Turning for a moment to look the iviiy. I liad come, I could .see Carn- edd Dafytld; rising at the he.id of Llyn Ogiven, with little thushes of sunshine like smile here and there about hini; and although ho hatl one cloud upon ills head; and another generally about his tihest, yet he took the rough with the smooth like a man, and looked, on the whole, a good humored ivell-lo-do mountain; hut Llyn Itlwal's mountains hugged their clouds ahont them, refus¬ ing to lie comforted; and even when, the rain stopped^ as it did after about three-quarters of an hour's sliai'p prac¬ tice, they only looked as if they had 'found that weeping brought no relief to, them, and that theirs was an anguish loo dee^^ for tears.
i   Hpwever, the rain was over at last, and it was time  fbr me  to begin my work.   The first thing tt> do was to get to the other side of the lake, and this, 1 fqtmtl.'took some littlo time, .iiiasniucll as the shore ofthe lako hatl a habit of! rimning to marsh at every jiossible op- > liortunity, which tiompelleil the travel¬ ler to make a much wider circuit than, uniiifluencetl  by bog, he woultl h'ave done; lind as this circuit obliged him to take his w.ny among the rocks at the hase_ of the mountain,  it struck me, .when at length I gained the ojiposite side, and was reatly to begin ni.va-si'ent, th^it Hawkins' niece must, for a hitly; be il very fair walker. If walking round the lake takes some time, climbing up tlie niounlaiii takes still longer.   Great rocks lie tumbled everywhere arountl, and you have to clamber over them, or .between them, iis you eim, hands and feet all at worli—"Dear me!" Ithought, "Hawkins' niece must be remarkably active"—and then you t:oiiia lo wlnit is still worse, loose stones, that givo way beneath - your  feet, troubling you far more tlian the large firm rocks ditt— "Hang it!" I muttered,  "Hawkinses niece must have considerable powers ot entlurance"—then come the hig rooks ag.iiu, scattered ahout amrag the;ioosp stones, and as you work along the crag* grow decidedly higger, ahd the rubWt; seems to yield  inore and niore,'till at last you stand, hot aiitl pantiiig, iit the mouth of the Devil's Kitchen.   " Con¬ found it! what  exeeUent wind Haw¬ kins's niece must have!" I gaspetl a'j I sat down for a few minutes, and sts^pd int^  a narrow  passage between  two walls of rock, ivhich go up more rough- Ij', of course, hut quite as perpendicu¬ larly as the walls of a house for nearly' one  hundred  yarils.   The  passage  is somo five yards wide, has no roof hut the sky, and,   as  regards the floor, is fljerely paved witli—well, periiaps with good intentions, but intentions certain¬ ly unfulfilled, for heaps of great stones appear to have heen shot into it, and there left.   In fact, the chasm  is  the bed of a torrent ivhich must once have dashed with tremendous force through it, sinco rocks so huge that one ivould think nothing less than  the Deluge could have stirred them, are piled uji and jammed together lu awful confu¬ sion.   The river, however, which made this bed, disdains to lio in it in these degenerate days, and is at present repre¬ sented by a comparatively.small stream, whose voice, like that of many a noisy
demagogue .accustomed to tliunder and bluster at AVestniiustei', would attract no attention but for the place in which it sjieaks, and the extent of whose do¬ ing is to liiiiwl along irritably, splash¬ ing everything near it, but never mov¬ ing a sttme. As I sat for a .short thne to riicover breath at the entrance of this cheerful jilace, I could not hut confess that the. name,,ivas,ver.v appropriate, particulni'l.v/.i-s"close b.y me, in tlie veri" iiloiith of 'the Kitchen, lay a jioor lo-st aheei), that could have fallen over the rocks but a few Iioui's before, wliile high iiboi-e his, prey some huge birtl was making great circles iu the air, as watch¬ ful as the Devil, and as silent as Dciilh.
Leaving the hapless mutton to its fate I resumed my work, and entered the kitchen,; iind although the rocks in- sidtj the chaani were heaped together in more utter confusion than those on the sitle of the mountain, jiLst as a stream when confined hy narrow banks leaps ami rushes more wildly than when its waliers have wider room, yet I met with nothing so difficult as to prevent a lady possessed of great activity ami good ankles from surmounting it, till I hud clambered on for aliout sixty yards, whiiiiwns brouglittoii sudden stantl- stili. The obstJicle.was a huge fl;it rock iuciined a little from .vou, extentling entirely froni oiie sitle of the chasm to tlie:otlier, but not reaching to tlie gi'ouinl —tliiit is to say, to the stones, upon which you are standing—liy:iat least fivo feet; so that yon find yoiu'self in fiont of a t iiciii, the lop ol which is formed by lliisi'ocklikea ver.v steep roof of il Imii-'ie.

I .shouted as T turned to Ipciic hack at the rock ; " but is it jiossi- blethalHawknis's niece climlied over tjiat?"   A comparatively casy'liit suc¬ ceeded this, and I with singing cheered tilic way; but after clambering on for five minutes longer, as I merged from a partially subterranean jiassagc, the -song of triumph died uiion my lips, and 1 cried: " AVhat on earth  did Hawkins's niece tlo now ?"   I was iu a blind alle.v, a thorough out de sac.   The walls met and joined without becomimt a .iot less rigidly   perpendicular;     straight   mi^ black and wet, they ro.su to the vury top ofthe niountain; antl over a huge rock which lay across the chasm, more than two hundred feet iihove rae, the water streamed in a skeleton cataract. In fact the  Kitchen   ended  in  an   i'niiiieiisu shower-Iiath. Impti.ssibleas thislookecl, I ivtis detcrrained not to miss an.y hole or passage b.Y nieai is of wh icIi Hawk i iis's niece  might have overcome the diffi¬ culty, so imtting up ray umbrella once more, I crept nnder the wtiter-fall; but the rock, though slightly hollowed out bj' the -ivater, ivas rock impenetrable; Ihehiirewal! diovenie back ; Ihe.strenm hattereil mj'lUn.hapily umbrella this wii.v and that;  and at last feeling ¦m.yseif complct<;ly heaten, hating Hawkins's niece above all other ivolnun, with m.y hoots and pockets filled with ivaler, ancl with the pleasant prospect'of having to get down that exeeedingl.y nast.v place that I hild got U21,1 turned and began ni.v retreat.' Foiled and dispirited as I was, I could not but.take notice of the awful beauty tif the place in which I stood.   The black precipices on three sides of me; the chasm britlgcd over by the rock that no human hand hatl ever placed there; the strip of bright blue sky ahove, and the sunlight—like Di¬ vine merc.v, faithful to the end—sjiark- ling on the sti'eani, as it turned and flung itself into the everla.sting gloom. Ltiokingdtiwn through tbe mouth of thcplace, I coiild see the sun shining upon the grassy mountains far awa.v, and on the rosy ones nearer at hand- all of them,, however rugged, appear¬ ing tiirai; compared with the iiature-in- ruins sort of den in which I wns, where the sunheanis never penetraleil, nor— nor Huivkins's  niece  eillier,  I'or thu matter of thiit.
"I tlon!tbelievea word of it," I cried out, as I.picked my way baek along this road of ruin. " aierttm must li.ave mis- uuderstopd; lier. .Shijcaii'i; liavc got through here tti the.Pass of Lltinherris; it's absurd.

For tloes any reasoifiible creature, can any oue nota lunatic believe that Htiwkins's niece"	
But here T came lo the iiusty bit, to getdown whieli required all my atten¬ tion. However, the descensus Averni is proverbially ;/V(c«M, and I was suffici¬ ently reckless after my disappointment to prevent my " thinking too precisely on the event;" so that, in a short time, I found myself at the mouth of the cav¬ ern again, with no further accident than tiie breaking of two ribs—of my um¬ brella, and the fracture of my watch- glass. After that, as there was no liu- rydice behind me to make my head turn round, nor any place precipitous enough to do that for me either, I was soou out¬ side the Dei-il's ICitchen. Ono draught from the internal river, the oblivious properties of which—supposing it, to be own brother to Lethe—I entleavored to
counteract by a strong infusion of bran¬ dy, and I tlescended the mountain, passed the gloomy tarn, the very pic¬ ture, in its blaekne-ss and sileni-'e, of a lake inHades,and gniiieil tlio.high road. But;with regard to ray walk back to Bangoi', eitlier the ivater I liaiV drunk was: Lethewatur after all, or perhaps I liadj overdone the countcia'ctive, who knojivs'?—at any rate, I dtcollect, very little ofit except that itafttflT-ieil.a terri-. ble length,, ancl that, when T came in sight of the hotel, I found the waiter standing on the steps with his napkin thrown over his left shouliler, after the fasliioh of Hamlet's cloak, and with all the look of il mnn mentally adtlressing a grave digger.

returning Christmas recalls to us thu yuiir's eventful history—whicli, eoiitcm- plafud aright, tuaclics a valuable lorsson. I am sitting aloue in my clianibcr. The iumates of the house have long since retired, and are wrapped in peace¬ ful foi'getfuliiuss. JMori>lieiis — " that knits UJ) the ravelled sleeve of cnre"^ now claims tlieir dreani.s. Xo-sound is lieanl stive that of wear.y watchmen jia- cing to and fro, echoing along the pave¬ ment, quiet reigns. The lights in the neighboringdwelliiigsare extinguished, l)Ut the all-beholding moon—the iniiri- ner's beacon—in her mnje-sty sheds a -soft, mellow light over the lantlscape. Ha! the time-worn clock frcim yon¬ der clnii'ch slow chimes the awful lioiir of midnight.
JIuaiiig here alone, I am carried back in memory to tiie jilcasHrcs, the disap-1 poiiitments, liie scenes of other days.
Time dims not the picture ; hut as the crutlu niiU'blu, by hand of plastic art, is niadu to speak more elocpieiit than liu¬ man language, so the assoeiatious of h.y- gone years shine out with more thiiii pristine brlglitne.ss.
Hotro-spective niuiiiories, liku ivhile- capt waves of ocean, come roILiiig ui) again-st the silver inalgc of thought and, as it weru, crowd thu expcjrieiicu of a ivholu lil'u into onu -slion liour. Thuy vibrate on tlie Iieart like soiiiidsiwliich thu suiiiniur hruu/e tlraw's frtiiii the strings of a luu')) left on soniu ni.vrtle bough.
I I'cniiiiil mc now—and strange that I recall it at thi- time—of a nieuiorable Christmas-Eve spent in. tlie glatlsome circle t)f friends in youth, anil tlie seve¬ ral episodic tales of Iho-c whose faces then, beamed cheerily wilh hope, be¬ speaking manifold joys and bright an¬ ticipations.   It was Christmas-Eve, the hour w-;>s late, and thenight was dreai'y without—the north-wind whistled  in the ovei'hangingtrces, iuitl hailand rain alteriiately pelteil against thtj window- panes.   Oun merry group of six were Seated in the kitehen of an old-fashion^ 'ed, wainsccitled-house, with gable roof and dormer ^intlows, iirouijd  a lofty and  commodious   Christmas  iireside. The glimmering onibera on the old stone hearth were slowly fading, one hy one, and  the lights burned  dimly mi the maiiteliisiwuiiad finishodusur joyous games—and each aat in glee-Some mood, descanting ovor the many gifts from old Sauta  Clans, ivhich  iiere suspended around the hoUy-bougli. A\'e were mu¬ sing in sympathy and love, when suil- denly the great oaken iToor  from the street opened, .and there entered a care¬ worn, wrinkled old ivoinnn, with tear- | filled eyes  and  hair trailing over lier shoulders white as suoTvl'"'Sho tottered into the room, leaning the while upon her rough-cut stafT, and with eyes up¬ lifted in the act of prayer, most pitifully sobbed and sighed, and fell lo the floor from sheer exhaustion.
" Dear little children," finally cried slie, " I am grief-worn and old, hutonee like you was young and fuU of hope." And then raising herself from the floor, sho rested upon her cane, closed her eyes, and prayed: " OU, Father of light, give hope and
-strenglh to my poor lileeding heart; he.il up my sorrow's, and lead me to my child and Tliee'"
Much more she fain would have aiio- ken, Imt tears of grief choked her utter¬ ance. Her haggard tispect at first thril- ,ied as with a sense of fear; but hesita¬ ting; not; we gave her a chair by the fire, iindihatle her warni herself, which she did ivith exiii'cssions of gratitude. _.3^ears.before, she said, her only child —a bright-eyed hoy—was stolen hy the roving gipaie.-, carried she knew not whither; and she had .sought kmg and earnestly to find him, but could not.— 'That herliu.shaiid went far iiway oil the hoi'deio of JFoxico in quest ofgold, and W.IS inurilered by the marauding Indi¬ ans.
Then she clenchtid her slender hands in anguish, and movetl to and fro, mur¬ muring the while how the grim ghosts of Wiiiit and Despair had haunted her and niarred her purity. She had be¬ como ii'lonely ivanderer, homeless and friendless—unknown, save as one tlmt thrciuled the thoroiighfiU'cs of pcipulous cities; slept in street cornel's and in dense wihi-woods, far from human hab¬ itation.
Her only friend, she saitl,. was He who noteth the fall of the sparrow, ivlio "tciinioi's the ivinclto the shorn lamb," and sho itjnged to rust beside Hini.

Dr; Marigold has a wife who is a vira¬ go, and beats their child, a sweet" little girl, who cateliea a low fever and dies. Mr. Dickens has seldom excelled this picture of the fatlier with the jest on his lip and the tlead, dull pain at Iiis heart: "I couldn't get the tienr cliild toiie down or leave go of me, and, indeed, I hadn't the heart to try, ao I atepped out on the footboard with her holding round my neck.
