BY ELLIE MAUD HENRY. " Thank you, Mary," he said, and crept out of the warm, bright kitchen, into the storm and darkness that reigned without. There was a conscious flush on her cheek, as if something had gone wrong, when she rejoined the Squire in the sitting-room. "" Well," said Squire Partlet, " has that ne'er-do-well gone at last!" "Xo" Mrs. Partlet kept the secret of the dol- lar bill within her own heart. It was six months afterward that the Squire came into the room where his wife was preserving some great red apples into jelly. "Well, well," quoth he, "wonders never will cease. The Buddiloves have '| gone away." : " Gone where!" "Out Whst somewhere," replied Mr. Partlet. " They say Luke hasn't touched a drop in six months." ; { "I'm glad of that," said Mrs. Partlet. "It won't last long, I haven't any faith in those sudden reforms," said the Squire. [ Mrs. Portlet was silent; she thought thankfully that, after all, Luke had not spent the dollar bill in liquor. Six months--six years--the time sped along in daysin weeks, almost before busy little Mrs. Partlet knew that it\, was gone. [The Ruddiloves had gone back to Sequ- osset. # » Luke had made his fortune, as the story -- rr ---- went, in the far-away El Dorado, vaguely Selection phrased 'Out West" by the simple Sequ- 5 . osseters. AAA SAA "They do say," said Mrs. Buckingham, "" that he bought that ere lot down oppo- site the courthouse, and is going to build such a house as never was." Folks thinks its dreadful strange he should put a dol. lar bill in with other things under the cor- ner stone." ? Mrs. Partlet felt her cheeks flush scarl- et; she glanced up to where the Squire was checking off a list of ] items in the bill he was making out some client. But he never looked d, and Mrs. Buckingham went on with her never-ceas- ing flow of chit-chat, and so the color died away in her cheeks. After all the money had been her own to give, and the old oil- cloth in front of the dinitig-room stove had answered very well. ) She met Ruddilove that [afternoon for the first time since his ret to Sequos- set. He looked her brightly{in the face as he held out his hand. | " Mary." i "1 am glad to see you back here again, Luke," she said, tremulous] '" And well you may be, [he rejoined. "Do you remember the night you gave me the dollar bill, and begged me not to go to the tavern." "Yes." "' That night was the pivot on which my whole desting turned. You were kind to me whenTevery one spoke coldly. I vow- ed a vow to prove myself worthy of your confidence and I keep it. I put the dol- lar bill under the corner-stone of the new house, for the house has risen from it, and it alone. I won't offer to pay you back, for I am afraid," he added smiling, " the luck would go from me with it; but 1'll tell you what I will do, Mary; I will give money and words of trust and encoarage- ment to some other poor wretchas you gave me." SERVILE PEOPLE. Some men are afraid of making enemies and this is well But when this fear amounts to severility, it is not well. As a general rule, the man who has no ene- mies is a mere drone in the great hive of created intelligence. He is a milk-and water man, who contents himself with doing no harm, while it is notorious that he is doing no good. Such men are time- serving, fence-riding, go-betweens, who creep after men of position and property, and hypocritically bow t6 men of humble walks of life. They take no part in public gentiment, and smile and smirk upon all hey "contact with. They usually glide through life undisiarbed, and sink into ob- scure graves, ; " Unwept, unhonored, ani unsung." Their bores are marrowless, and though their heads are not brainless, their lives are useless. It is better far to do some harm occasionally than never to do any THINGS THAT I HAVE SEEN. I have seen a farmer building a house so large that the sheriff turned him out of doors. T have seen a young man sell a good farm, turn merchant, and die in an in- sane asylum. I have seen a farmer travel about so much that there was nothing at home worth looking af- ter. ] I have seen a man spend more money in folly than would support his family in comfort and independance. I have seen a rich man's son begin Cold and bitter the dark night grew, Chilling her tiny fingers blue; Ereezing each golden curl of hair, Falling o'er neck and should'r bare. Alone, in the city at night, Except where gleamed a watchman's_ligh® Winding her way with tired feet, i To a dreary and dismal street. Only a few red cents, to-day, Gathered she, on her weary way; Only a crust of bread they gave, A precious human life to save, Onward, still, though the heart grew cold, And her hands loosed their feeble hold; Till the tattered cape, falling low, Bare'd a bosom, white as the snow. Sadly,a cry of bitter pain, Came from her icy lips again; Turning once to the watzhman's light, Gleaming still in the dreary midnight, Vainly she urged Ler weary feet, To tread with care the slippery street; Slowly she bowed her shining head, Her life was growing cold and dead. Father, high in heaven above, Look down with mercy, in thy love; ~Tenderly dry the tears that start, And rest the little aching heart, Wildly the winds may wailand weep, Sweetly she sléeps her long last sleep; Little May, with her curls of gold, Resting safe in the Saviour's fold. BEECHDALE VALE. ~~ ~ ~~ " THE ONE DOLLAR BILL How it did rain that November night! None of your undecided showers, with hesitating intervals, as it were, between; none of your mild, persistent patterings on the roof, but a regular tempest, a wild deluge, a rush of arrowy drops and a thun- der of opening floods! Squire Partlet heard the angry rattle against the casements, and drew his snug easy chair a little closer to the fire--a great open mass of glimmering anthracite, and gazed with a sort of sleepy, reflective satisfaction at the crimeon moreen, and the gray cat fast asleep on the hearth, and the canary bird rolled into a drowsy ball of yellow on its perch. "This is snug," quoth the Squire.-- "I'm glad T had that leaky spot fixed in the barn roof last week. I don't object to a stormy night once in a while, when a fellow's under cover, and there's nothing particular to be done, Mary. "Yes," Mrs. Partlet answered. Shy was flitting about' between kitchen and sitting room, with a blue check apron tied around her waist. 2 ""Im nearly . ready to come in now, Josiah. Now I wonder," sotto voce, "if that was really a knock at the door, or just a little rush of the wind and rain?" She went to the dcor, nevertheless; and a minnte or two afterwards she went to her husband's chair. "Joe, dear, it's Luke Ruddilove," she said, half apprehensively. The Squire never looked up from his paper. "Tell him he's mads a mistake. tavern is on the corner beyond. '" But he wants to know if you will lend him a dollar!" said Mrs. Partlet. . '" And couldn't you have told him No, without the preliminary ceremony of com- ing in here to ask me? Is it likely that I shall lend a dollar or even a cent to Luke Ruddilove! Why, I had a great deal bet- ter throw it among yonder red coals! No! --of courge not!" Mrs. Partlet hesitated. "He looks so pinched and cold and wretched, Josiah. He says there's no. body in the world to let him have a cent." '" All the better for him, if he did but know it," sharply enunciated the Squire. "If it had come to that pitch half a dozen years ago, perhaps he wouldn't have been the miserable man he now is." "We used to go to school together," said Mrs. Partlet, gently. " He was the smartest boy in the class." '" That's probable enough," said the Squire. " But it don't alter the fact that he's a poor, drunken wretch now. Send him about his business, Polly, and if his time is of any consequence, just let him know that he had better not waste it com- ing here after dollars." And the Squire leaned back in his chair after a'positive fashion, as if the whole matter was definitely decided. Mrs. Partlet went back to the kitchen where Luke Ruddilove was spreading his poor, thin fingers over the blaze of fire, his tattered garments steaming as if he were a pillar of vapor. '" He wouldn't let you have it, Luke," said she, 'I thought he wouldn't." "Then I've got to starve, like any other dog!" said Luke Ruddilove, turning away moodily.

From this fruitful island, with its groves of co- coanut, mango, clove, and cinnzmon, and its whitewashed cify, he proceeded across the five and twenty miles of strait to Bag- amoyo, on the African continent. He ar- rived at Bagamoyo on the 6th Februrary in last year and organized his expedition.-- It was divided into five caravans; the last led by himself. The first caravan consist- ed of twenty-four porters (called pagazis) and three soldiers, and was despatched on the 18th Februrary. The second follow- ed three days after, and was co! of twenty-eight pagasis, two chiefs, two soldiers; the-thrirdwtarted-with twenty-two pagasis, ten donkeys, one white man; one cook, and three soldiers, on the 25th Feb- rurary. On the 11th March the fourth caravan got away with fifty-five pagazis two chiefs, and three soldiers; and on|the 21st March Mr. Stanley brought up the rear with twenty-eight pagazis, twelve soldiers, two white men, a taildr, a caok, an interpreter, a gun:bearer, seventeen donkeys, two horses, and a dog. The ex- pedition thus consisted of 192 persons and 153 loads of provisions and merchandize, and Mr. Stanley's object was to proceed as quickly as possible to Ujiji, so as to ar rive there before any rumour could reach Dr. Livingstone--for rumour flies even in to find hin. He says: -- 'We left Bagamoyo, the attention of all the curious, with much eclat and de- filed up a narrow lane, shaded almost to twalight by the dense umbrage of two par- allel hedges of mimasas. We were all in the highest spirits. The soldiers sang, the Kirangozi lifted his voice into a loud bel- lowing note, and fluttered the American flag, which told all on-lookers, 'Lo, a Musungu's caravan," and my heart, I thought, palpitated much too quickly for the sober face of a leader. But I could clung to me-despite my travels; my pul- ses bounded with the full glow of staple health, behind me were the troubles®hich had harassed me for over two months. -- With that dishonest son of a Hindi, Soor .| Hadji Palloo, I had said my last word; of the blatant rabble of Arabs, Banyans, and Baluches I had taken my last look; with the Jesuits of the French mission I had exchanged farewells, and before me beam- the Ogcident.

I may consider myself also locked up at Unyanyembe, and I | suppose cannot go to Ujiji until this war with Miramwbo is settled." At this place he was detained till the 20th September, | tortured by the treacherous behaviour of | his man Shaw, tempted to turn back, yet | holding on his mission, and at length re- | solving to reorganize his expedition and | make a detour southwards to avoid the war.

An inveterate joker was fishing quite recently irf the muddy watters of the Don when to his surprise, he got-a savage bite. He immediately gave his line a jerk that pulled up a huge snapping-turtle and threw it flat on the path. "He stood in amazement, gazing on the singular beast, when an Irishman came along, followed by a large dog. ry The Donoman tried to get the son the Emerald Isle to put his finger into the turtle's mouth, but he was too smart for that; but says he: I'll put my dog's tail in it, and see what the baste will do. Ho immediately called up his dog, took his tail in his hand, and stuck it into the turtie's mouth. He had hardly got itin when Mr. Turtle shut down on the poor dog's tail, and off he started at railroad speed, pulliug the turtle after him, ata more rapid rate than he had ever travel ed before.
