THEODORE ROLAND.

The story am about to relate is made Up
ofncidents, rather than ofadventures and of course
it is the difficult to give interest to the illus
tration. During my residence in *****, became
deeply interested in the character of mere lad,
who was an apprentice to wealthy mechanic in the
country village where lived believe this inter
est originated in the romantic expression of his
countenance but it daily augmented by per-
sonal observation, and the knowledge accidental
ly gained of his most singular habits. His MASTER
it seems, had become resident of the village when
this Theodore Roland was about ten years of age
From that time, far from mingling with the lads of
the neghborhood, he had sedulously avoided them,
and remained alike solitary and peculiar. His in
dustry in his masters service was unparalleled and
if holiday was allowed him in common with his
fellow apprentices, he Immediately sought for en-
plovment elsewhere, during his allotted hours of
freedom. Meanwhile he never known to
pend particle of the little savings he thus acquired
and the boys in the village generally gave him the
nickname of Hunks Indeed, it was natural to sup
pose that avarce was the real cause of these habits
and yet his fellow-apprentces declared that when
his money was not in danger, he was the most oblg
ing fellow in existence" His countenance, too,
was calculated to inspire strong prepossession In
his favor. There was in it something of reserve,
which however seemed rather assumed than natu
raj When an interesting subject was discussed be-
fore him, he would lift his dark eye to the speaker,
when it would flash with all the brlllancy of an ar
dent and intelligent spirit. At other times, when
accident threw him into of hilarlty, transient
gaiety sometimes lighted up his features, and he
then displayed fund of pointed and original hui
mour. Yet it was only for moment settled
shade again passed over his countenance, and he
became silent and reserved. For some time, was
utterly unable to form any decided opinion of this
unaccountable youth yet by some impulse, equal

with the strctest scrutiny. At times, when saw
the pensive fxedness of his features, would men,
tally exclam Is it possible that SO young spirit
can have been so deeply wounded No: the idea
savoured too much of romance. l knew he was
treated with the utmost kindness by his master 8
and again would come to the unwelcome conclu
sion that his sngularities originated in gloomy
temperament, and heart contracted by the breath

heard manned beggar invoking blessing on the
head of this interesting youth. However, it re-
moved every unfavorable impression, and from that

At the same moment beheld Theodore Roland
crossing the adjoining fields and advancing towards
him with hurried step. Bounding like deer over

thrown something in his hat disappeared in mo-

mournful attestation of its truth They had all been

after lingering on through months Of indescribable

compassion-'Ah, Sir, your pity is far more sooth-

on the bank. He still proceeded In the village

me some pieces of silver but ere stopped to pick

turned from them with swelling heart At that
moment the youth, you saw, sprang from scaHold
where he was at work, and picking up the scattered
money, he forcibly put it into my hand, DO not
