But, as my poor Mother said, I was born to be a greet man. One mo r g I was playing at marbles in the village ball-alley, with a light been and a liAhter pocket. The gibe, and the jest, and the Pluiider went gaily round ; those wlso won laughed, Mill those who lost cheated ; when sad. drolly there appeared amongst us a stranger of * very venerable and very cheerful aspect; his intro lion was not the least restraint upon our merry little assemblage; on the contrary. he s e emed pleased, and even delighted ; he was a benevolent creature, sod the days of eisrency (after all, the happiest we shall ever see) perhaps rove upon his memory.
