He’s got wealth and world- ly goods; but there’s a. sin at his heart, and he wunt be a. thrivin’ man when he comes afore his God. Listen, boy 3 I was a. poor man then, toilin’ for my wife and babes, and that money was hard to lose. But it isn’t t/zatI consider now -â€"â€"it’s the bsseness and fraud. It’s the mean not that moves me. I felt it then like madness; but that’s gone, and I’ve tried sence to forget and forgive, like a Christian men ; but I don’t forget it! Icsme back to Lynn with n trustful sperit,, and commenced business. At the very outSet I was prosp’rous; I got a, good connection for my trade, and all promised fair. I told yo' that I hed my stock. kit of tools, and so forth, on :t month’s credit. I could’t git more at that, for I wasn’t known, and I trusted sure on my wages to meet that bill. Three week went by, and in another my creditor-he's a, man of this town, and it close man, but honomble~--he’d be after his lawful duo. \V'cll, I went up to Boston town, and saw Squire l’hil- lips. He was very smooth and kind, and asked after my business ; and I told him jest how matters stood, and men- tioned that I lied come, agreeable to re- quest, after my money. I didn’t know what made him look so puzzled, and I thought he’d not understood me; so I told him over. The blood in my buddy chilled cold in me when he said, ‘Hev you another demand against me, Captain Martin ’1’ I thought he was jokin’ at first, but he looked so proud and cold that I knew better in a. minute. ‘Mr. Phillps,’ I said, ‘I never bed but one, and that ain’t canceled. Yo’ don’t mean to say you’re not owin’ me twelve hundred dollars? He looked at me with his proud, stern face for a long minute, and then he said slowly, ‘Csptnin Martin, I want you to understand that I never pay the some bill twice.’ ‘tht do yo’ mean, Sir?’ I said, in a. fury, for I saw the villainy. ‘What do you mean '1 thun- ders he: ‘do you mean to deny your own resate, man?’ And he jumped up to the desk, and took out a paper, and held it before my eyes. I saw it all ! I’d put my head in the noose. I told‘yo’, Cher 166, that the first day I called on him, three weeks before, I’d made out my bill, and signed it in full for all demands to date, thinkin’ that I was to get the money Men. And that resate I’d left on his desk, and forgotten! Never re- membered ought about it till then I There it was, in his hands. Not a. witâ€" nessâ€"mot a. grain of evidenceâ€"to help me to my right! Says he, ‘If this re- sate is not enough, I can prove that I sent a. check to the bank with your name on it {or this amount, on the very day you were here, and drew the money. Do yo’recollect the circumstance ’I’ says he to a. clerk, The young man said yes. No doubt he’d carried the check, and got it cashed, but the sum had went into Mr. Phillips’s packet. ‘The check is in the bank,’ says he, ‘and kin be pro- duced if necessary : here’s my voucher that the money was paid you,’ holdin’ up the resate. I was a ruined man ! “Charles, the feelin’ that my claim was under that man’s footâ€"the thought that wife, and children, and business were beggared and bankrupt if he chose vuw~ were beggared and bankrupt if he chose -made me meek. I humbled myself to that proud swindler. I told him of my',state. I told him that my business -â€"-the bread for my familvwdepended on that money. I écgged it of him! He heard me for a time. I’ll credit him for not makin’ me doubtful that some- thin’ ‘of the feelin’ that makes every human manâ€"the wust and the bestâ€"own up to the hand of the Lord that made himâ€"was in Hm; for by the twitchin’ of his face, and his changin’ color, I saw that his conscience -._â€", “God bless yo’, boy. There’s truth and honor in your bright eyes and your honest forehead. It’s his blood that’s warm in your face, and his soul’s in you. Ay, Charles, it was him that res- cued me. It was your own father. ” Over that revelation long minutes passed away. The tears dried from my eyes. I was filled with a. calm sense of satisfaction, but my heart was too full to speak. I sat and watched the wav- ing of the tree, which now swayed mu- sically in the west Wind of the afternoon. I remembered that a Spotted butterfly was Vgrapplin’ with his lie and fraud. Then at last, it ended ; and he told me to leave the ofiice ! The cuss that was in my heart never came to my lips, and I went and left him. “Fifteen years have passed sence then. Often have I met him, and I see him‘ ‘times now. And when I pass -him, silent, I see shame and trouble in the proud face where I saw aforetime up- rightness and honor ;and I know there’s a sin at his heart, and a. worm that’ll never die!

Charles yo’ can’t blame me,” “N o, no, ” I said, with my heart swel- ling, and dimness blotting out the sight from my eyes, “I cannot blame you. It was baseâ€"it was unmanly. He was a rich man, and he spoiled the feeble for- tunes of the poor. The father of my friend ! 0 Captain, I never thought Mr. Phillips capable of an act like this! No honor-reparation. It was base. N o, no ; I understand your feeling, and "I must respect it. I am sorry for Vayse and for May, but I can not blame you.” My voice failed me, and I choked down a. sob that rose from my heart. How still the room wasâ€"how dim the sound of workmen’s tools withoutâ€"how the green leaves trembled on the tree. “Look up, boy, and don’t yo’ grieve. You’re a true friend, and Gervayse Phil- lips ought to be proud of you. Glad would I be to sink the reef on which these young hearts are wrackin’, for I mind the time when I was young.

I can’t but think of that man’s wrong, and its ruin to the love of his own boy I” Along silence followed.‘ I could not but feel that in his opposition to the union of his daughter with my friend, if there was not a. particle of logic there was all the reason in the world. I felt too that their love was without hope or promiseâ€"the fruitless blossom was to wither on the tree. “Captain,” I said at length, anxious to divert my mind from the thought, “you toldme that when Phillips defraud- ed you, your property in trade was at the mercy of your creditor. Did you lose it ! Of couse you did, I suppose.” A sudden flush blazed out on his sun- browned face 3 a glisen in his blue eyes. His lips trembled once, and then was firm again under the dilating nostril, and still, in their strange stir of features. And when he spoke, a blind, agonized feeling in my bosom rose up, and groped toward his meaning at the gathering thrill that quivered in his hoarse and earnest voice. “Charles, shall I mention what befell’l Listen. I waited patiently for the day of my ruin. I could in no fashion make up that sum. I waited, and on the day afore that bill came due, when I must go and say I couldn’t meet itâ€"I found a friend. In the street I met him, and I hadn’t seen him for long, though we’d ben boys together. And he met me so cordial, that my heart warmed in my despair. So when he asked me why I looked so down-hearted, a feelin’ came that made me tell him all, though I never counted on his bein’ able or willn’ to help me. I never told that story out of my family to ought but him and you ; and I told Mm then. And that good man saved me ! Prompt was he 3 and he said it mus’n’t be so, and that he’d lend me the money, and, if need be, twice the money ; and he sought me up straight. He did ; and I’ve never for- got it 3” A cloud had darkened my brainâ€"a. sudden light burst through it. I divined the spirit in his eyesâ€"the emotion on his faceâ€"the meaning that kindled in his words, and shot through the electric currents of my frame with an inspiration, and a. triumph, and a. pride. I rose to my feet. “ It wasâ€"â€"-” I stopped. He had risen with me, and his hands were on my head. A great change worked on his large fea- tures, and the glisten 1n his eyes went out in brimming tears. Over that revelation long minutes passed away. The tears dried from my eyes. I was filled with a. calm sense of satisfaction, but my heart was too full to speak. I sat and watched the wav- ing of the tree, which now swayed mu-. sically in the west wind of the afternoon. I remembered that a Spotted butterfly fluttered down upon a twig near the window, and poised atilt upon its balan- cing, slowly moving its gorgeous wings, like the brilliant spirit of the summer. And then, when it flitted away into the sunshine, a. bright bluebird swooped suddenly from the air, and, resting in the green agitation of the branches, warbled out a clear brief trill that was hope and happiness to hear, and flew away. “ Captain, I will go, ” I said. “\Ve have talked long enough, andI want to think of what you have told me, and settle my mind.” - “Yes Charley,” said the Captain cheerily “it’s nigh on to two o’clock ; I feel yo’ had better leave me, for I’m thoughtful in sperit with these recol- lections. But, nowâ€"not a. word to your friend about what’s ben said â€"â€"not a word to Vayse I ” “Not a word, Captain,” I replied; “ Hullo. "” he said, with ahoarse sub- dued roar, “Taint hot. Ain’t it though? I’m briled. Back’s hot’s a. roast hog, and the hide’s cracklin’. I’m done-â€" “I will not speak of it. Goodâ€"by’ Captain.” “Farewell, Charley; come home to On the steps I saw, rolling along to- ward the shop, the great Bugbee. Straw hat pushed back, neckerchief untied, monkey-jacket all flying. Bugbee was in a. tropical heat. There was a red mark from the hard rim of his hat on his swarthy forehead ; his face was wet with “perspiratiOn; he was holy~stoning it with his rough sleeve. He careened, and rolled off with a growl : “Thin coat! H00! Thin coat be ” No matter what he said about - “Cap’n Bugbee,” I ventuf-ed, "7‘ M m the world don’t you put on a th coat?” the thin coat. OH I went. Gervayse Phillip’s house was out behind the town of Swampscot, which, as everybody knows, lies north~ east of Lynn. I went that way, musing on all I had heard, and was just going by old High Rock. lost in a trance of reverie, when two firm hands were laid upon my shoulders, and, from a proud and noble facebwith a flush of pleasure lighting up the golden brown of its healthy tan, two large hazel eyes, with real star-fire in their liquid shadows, looked straight into mine. My heart leaped up to greet him. “O Vayse! I was just going over to your house,” I shouted, with his strong grasp in my ardent hand. ’ “And I was going after you,’ said Gervayse Phillips. “Father saw you in the cars from Boston yesterday after- noon (though you did not see him), and as you did not come over to me this afternoon, I made up my mind that you were, as usual, at Captain Martin’s, and came over to you. A special Fate diâ€" rected my route, for here you are.” “And right glad I am to see you,” was my impulsive retort. “You are strong as ever, I feel,” for his graSp hurt my hand. “Now then, whose horse and carriage is that? Yours, I think. And what cloud did you drop out of ’3 ” “My dear Charley, there is not a cloud in the sky, therefore it is fair to presume I drove soberly on the road. It is strange you did not see me ; but I noticed you were blind with medita- tion. Come, whatZare you thinking 0 .” ...... vvâ€"â€"_ ., “You, of course. fidve is ailwavs blind,” I said with a gay laugh. “ Really! ” he replied with his grave smile; “And is love denf too? for you might have heard the carriage wheels, at all events. If love had been blind on both sides, you might be marching over to Swampscot on a vain look-out, and I driving over to West Lynn-â€" “ Without this,” I interruptefi, hand- ing him May,s white rosebud Irom my button-hole. “Ah ! for me '2” he said slowly, his face changing to a dusky pallor, from which the beautiful eyes glinted their starry lustre; “do you know the lan- guage of flowers? This, for instance, meansâ€"Hopeless Love.” He held the rose to his fine’ thin nostrils ; but I am} sure, if I had not looked at him, he1 would have pressed it to his lips. i “ Yes” said I, “hopeless love. ” The illuminating flush had died away. He was very pale. I hardly noticed then that, during the three months which had elapsed since I had last seen him, a quiet sadness had stolen into his face, and a more pensive tone into the clear, grave music of his voice. I only noticed the same inexpressible delicacy and nobility of face and figure which had so often charmed me. The proud and graceful demeaner of the head, with its chivalrous fall of ‘dark waving hairâ€"the dark brilliant ‘eyes. under the calm arch of their black Lbrows, giving light and soul to the sun- ‘tinted august featuresâ€"the broad, full chestâ€"the piled muscle of arm and thigh, and the whole lithe, elegant outline of the elastic frame, unconcealed by its close-fitting garments, made up an image from the days of the cavaliers. It seemed to me then the perfect ideal of manly beauty. It was the dream of gallant Richard Lovelace, with the graver grace of Philip Sidney, realized in the New England sunlight, beneath the Puritan shadow of old High Rock So fabled the imagination. Yet, as the memory of what the Captain had told AL- ..... me a little while before glided into my mind, and the silent sorrow of the face slowly revealed itself to me, I hooded the eyes of vision, and remembered that this was Gervayse Phillips, with the white rosebud in his fingers, and the the truth of which it was the symbol, cold and silent in his heart. And I, with my counsel, Was to aid Time, and medicine that hopeless love to its cure â€"â€"renunciatation and forgetfulness. T 0 6e Continued. Walked one Hundred Miles to be Married. PARKEBSBURG, W. Va, Aug. 2.â€"-It is rare indeed to record an elopement on foot, but such a case has just occurred in Jackson county. Miss Hester Tyre, eigh- teen years, in spite of the opposition of her parents, decided to many George Fineld, nineteen years. He was a. farm hand, and between them they only had $1.25. Last Friday they met by appoint- ment and walked fifty miles to the Ohio river, taking three days for the journey. Crosing the river a justice united them. The appearance of the groom and that of his blushing bride betrayed their poverty, and the. justice declined the piece of silver ofl'ered as his fee, and gave the happy young woman a blessing, which be sealed with an oflicial kiss, and bid them go, and saw that they were ferried back to West Virginia for nothing. When on this side, after another fifty miles’ walk, the home ‘of her parents was before them.
