"CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET ~

"Dorothy,' said Ichabod, pale and trembling, to
his wife, Dorothy, have secret, and if thought
you would keep it invioable, would not hesitate to
reveal it to you But oh, Dorothy, woman"
Why, ichabod, it must certainly be secret of
great Importance, for you in woeful agitation.
You know, husband, you can place implicit confidence
in your wife, Have | ever given you occasion to
doubt my fidelity p
"Never, never, Dorothy but the secret have to
communicate is one that requires more than ordinary
aithfuness and prudence to prevent you from dvul-
ging it. Oh dear | shudder when think ont!'
Why, husband do you know how your lips trem-
BILE, and your eyes roll What is the matter Icha-
bod!--you surely cannot mistrust the confidence of
one who vowed at the altar to be faithful to you.-
Come unbosom yourself"
May rely on your fidelity?'

"Murder!''
Yes, murder and have buried him at the foot
of tree in the orchard
ooh awful Ichabod. Committed murder Then
indeed we are ruined, and our children with us 70
Ichabod left the room, and Dorothy hurried off to
her neighbours. Mrs Prattle observed great change
in Dorothys countenance, and in her general appear
ance so great as to cause her to enquire into the
cause of it,
sob! Mrs Prattle,'' said Dorothy, 81 am the
most miserable of women II am ruined forever ~
Mercy Dorothy how gloomy you look What
has turned up to make you look SO detected Why
how you sigh! Tell me the cause"
81 wish might, Mrs Prattle but the occasion of
my unhappiness is secret which am not permitted
to divulge."
"Oh you may tell me, Dorothy-T shall never
speak of it again.
"Will you promise never to reveal it to any person
living %
You know, Dorothy, never tell secrets.''

Dorothy went home weeping and wringing her
hands and Mrs Prattle, leaving her dough half knea-
ded and her infant crying in the cradle, fastened to
hold tete-a-te with Mrs Teilall. Soon after this
last confab ended the report of Ichabods having
committed murder became general, and the disclo-
sure of the fact was traced to his wife Dorothy
Process was Immediately issued against him by ma
gistrate, before whom, and in the presence of null
ttude of anxious spectators, he gave the following
explanation.
My object" said Ichabod, in the course ]
have pursued, was to my we's capability of keep
ing secret have committed murder, inasmuch as
killed toad, and buried it at the foot of tree IN
my own orchard How far my wife is capable OF
keeping a secret, has been sufficiently proved -
