And I was so hannv. mv Amw- that I used to say that if we only kept a cow and had our own butter, and :1t few chickens and fresh eggs, Maltby cottage would be an earthly paradise. ' ’ _ Living so far {rem the city, it was ‘ not easy to have things Of that sort sent in numbers, and the neighbors were such ‘ upsta'rrs that they wouldn’t. sell you an egg or a quart of milk if they had to ‘ give them to the pigs or waste them. â€" ‘ They were all villas or country resi-' I §dences, and when Mr. Bonnybell,witl1% whom I had dealt for pork all the time I lived 1n the city, retired from businessl \and bought a stone house with two turrets, and a Hebe 1n the garden pour ling the fountain into a marble basinâ€" and I sent up word by Bridget that I was going to make a custard, and could they spare me a dozen eggs; Mrs i Bonnybell sent back wordâ€"“her com- \ pliments to Mrs. M. althy, and she won ‘ l dered at her impudence, and she didn’t keep shop. ” Set a butcher on horse» back and he will ride the horse as far , as he will go. And as for bakers, when I heard of the residence of Terrence O'Grady, Esq, I never thought he was 5 ours, where we used to buy the buns we were always sure had alum 1n them. â€"â€" [ But dear me, I am forgetting all about i Martha. We hadn’t been in the cottage three weeks when Nurse Glow‘er came to see me. Dear old creature 'i I could reâ€" l member her from the time that I was that highâ€"and she was at our house when I was a child, at least ionce’a 'year She was very fond of me, and meant for the best3 I’m sure, but ,perhaps she wasn’t quite so Euclicious. I don’t think, myself, a whole cocoanut is a wholesome treat for a child, though it does keep it quiet, and I remember having oneâ€"and something like the cholera after itâ€" several times. When I was married at siitcen, she ' always promised to visit me, and when I went to the cottage she came; we hadn’t had was: $01; ‘b'e‘r before, for, to tell the. truth, We slept ourselves on a sofa he'd‘stead, and hid the pots and kettles in an ottoman when we had com- lpany, becafi‘se ire hadn’t any kitchen. and by sitting by himself on the hac!‘ stoop smoking till after midnight. Nurse Glower was afraid of what she called rheumatics, and considered the night air poison; so you know I could not join ‘ 'I him withon't always leaving her, and that I wave too polite to do. Maybe I looked a littie low spirited one evening, “Betty, is your life a happy one, or do you find that marriage is all vanity, like most does ?” She was not particular about her grammar, dear old soul, and always said “w” for “v.” She took' me by surprise nurse said to me; in such a meaning 'DURHAM, COUNTY OF GREY, for I was" he said : “Happy!

'Glowcr' was ; that I know, and that I stick to, and allers will !”~ I knew Mr. Glower had not been what is called a domestic man, andI hoped nurse might have been prejudiced by his conduct. Still my heart sunk; in my bosom like a lamp of lead, and: |thuongh I tried to talk pleasantly, and; [made her the warm sangaree she always, took before she went to bed, I felt? ,dreadfully, and if I smiled it was duly , to mask my feelings When your spirits began to go down,‘ it’s very hard to make them rise again, and when Nurse Glower was fairly gone. to bed, instead of running down stairs to sit. on the porch with Tom as I had intended, I took my seat on the broad sili of the stairhead window, and began to \\ onder “hat I should do if I were to discover anything dreadful about Tom. \\ hen I had perched myself,1 could: see his dear curly head with wreaths of mm: smoxe an aooun In,an(1 me more I. looked the more I cheered up, until at last I said : will go am and bit with him. If there is only one good husband in the world, Tom is the man.” It I had only done what I intended at that very moment, I should have been spared a great deal of trouble. But my evil star made me stop to let my eyes; dry, so that he shouldn’ t see that I had i been crying, and just in that little while seine one came up to the garden fence, stopped, took off his hat and called: “.Mr M altbyâ€"I say sir. '” Tom Went to the gate, only is few steps, and not only could I hear, bnt see him perfectly in. the moonlight, and there was something secret and myste- rious in his very back. “I’ve come from Turner’s, sir,” said" the man. “My way being this, the lady axt me would I step in‘ and tell Mr. Maltby if he cares about seeingI \Iartba he must come up in a few days â€"she won ’t be there long.” “He spoke 1n a coarse high pitched voice, and I saw my husband put his hand upon his arm and point warningly towards the house. “Hush ! This is a little secret, you ‘ know,” he said ; “I don‘t want any one to hear.” _ , , , .. 1 “Keeping it from the missile, I ire‘ck- on.” with a gr'ufi' laugh. . My husband nodded. “'1 e11 the lady I’d no‘ ‘miss seeing Martin for the world,” he said; “that I’ll be there to morrow, if possible; and there IS eOmething for your trouble.” The man muttered a “thank you,” and then added with a laugh: “She’s a splendid creature, sir.’ “I don’t know her equal,” said my husband. He, my dear, who had promised to cherish and protect me at the altarâ€" oniy think of that! And he has often told me that I hadnt any equal In the world. Of course, it isn ’t so, you know, but one’s husband ought to think so, whether any one else does or not. And that horrible man went away, and Tom came sannterin‘g slowly up the path 'ai: though nothing had occurred worth thinking of, and I, poor creature, I felt sorry for myhelf, “as though I had been some one elae. I alip’ped ‘doiis'n front the window sill and sat down upon the floor. Oh, how I cried! Softly, , though, for I made a vow that he should l never have the least suspicion that I lhad found him out. .
