While our young hero was amusing
himself in one corner of the room, in.
this manner with Miss Nick kerson, (which
was the lady's nancy the rest Of the
company had proposed a walk to tho
beach, it being moonlight evening
besides it was but short distance from
the house, and az that season, was the
resort of most Of the young people of
the village.
1t SO happened that just as the ladies
were going out Of the door. LENS old
friend Gibson stepped between him and
Miss Nickerson, and to use vulgar
phrase, s'cut him out" This treatment
struck like an electric shock over poor
Lem, for the girl had really stole his
heart He remained fixed for some
time, till at length seeing the merry
company at some distance, he took an
opposite direction, and swearing revenge
on both Gibson and the girl, and he
hurried home.
Whether Miss Nickerson was addic-
ted to coquetry, or not, cannot say;
but it was very evident that she was
pleased with the partiality Lem had
shown her. But as Gibson was store
keeper she thought it quite an ndyan-
tageous change. But Lem was deter
mined to come up with her in some
way or other.
Now Miss Nickerson was one of the
singers in the church of DIR. R., and
was as punctual TO attend meeting as
the DR.. himself OF this fact Lem was
well aware, and the next Sunday evening
after the services had commenced, it
began to rain, and continued through
the night. Lem thought this good
opportunity to get redress for the inju-
ry he had received. Accordingly he
took an umbrella, and repaired to the
church. Shortly after services were
over, Lem very soon found the object
of his search, who readily accepted the
shelter Of his umbrella. They walked
some distance till they came to cor
ner in the road, when Lem, stepping
a little aside, said 'he was sorry she was
not going his way and wishing her a
pheasant walk" he left her without
shelter from the raging storm. s..

My baggage was on board ofthe vessel

O'Clock passed down the wharf intend
ing TO seek my birth for the nights re-
pose. 1t was a clear, bright, beautiful
moonshiny night. All nature looked
glorious-the stars were resplendent in
|brightness-the ocean fires burned with
sparkling viyidness-the gentle sea-bree-
xes were richly freighted with an invig-
Grating, balmy influence, which soothed
my feelings and gave the glow of reality
to my musings on the coming future.
Istopped to gaze upon the moon--the
seattle city--to indulge the sensations
the scene and the occasion produced.
$50 them" said a voice closely beside
me, you intend to abandon your native
bome-to fly your birth-place-to seek
your destiny among strangers. IT'S vain,
Arthur Wa!singham, your fate must be
fulfilled, whether here or elsewhere
lookedup and met the fixed gaze OF
the hag who had embittered my early
youth by her fatal predictions, who had
made me by her own Internal arts-if she
herself spoke truly-more than half a
murderer.
81 am doomed then, wretched woman
to meet you again." said I. "To hear
the croakings of a voice which always
speaks Of evil to still be the object of
your prosecutions"
"Even SO, boy. Not only noso, but
while life lasts-forever-aye, forever
your sworn foe. We meet again, young
man; though seas divide us they part US
not thoueh you fly to unknown lands,
there will / be, also, to turn your cup of
Joy into bitterness, to blast your bright

death to escape the misery of living"
But we will not part now" said /.

particulars of the confession she had
made when last saw her. SCI have a
sacred duty to perform, and will per-
form it at all hazards. You have ac-

you shall answer at the bar ofjustice.
The hug smiled scornfully with look
Of defiance. was maddened at the
taunt, and rushed forward to seize her.

Let those who will, with anxious dread,
The coming Terror still deplore,
And, with dark boding fancies, fed
View all with fear that fills our shore:
Though not less fond Of life than they,
And filed with many future hope,
LotAo with calm tho plague survey,
And with the anxious terror cope.
Let me not watch, with idle fears,
Long, in advance the coming doom;
And, before death himse If appears,
Prepare tho shroud and build tho tomb:
But, with heart securely calm,
Still on the Providence rely,
That never blights, but brings balm,
And strengthens, while il bids us die.
Still let me hold to that high truth,
The best that man to God has given,
To cheer the old and teach The youth,
There is no certain hope but Heaven.
And if fall and if the fate,
That strikes the thousand, strikes at me-,
And makes my freside desolate,
And biights the bud, and blasts the tree 3
And, from my fond affection rends
The child that still my heart has blcst,
And robs my hope Of many friends
Al least, twill give us peace and rest.
And, if the fate thus comes, twill be
But the same fate we still should meet,
When time has brought infirmity-
Without restraint, without retreat.
A few years iopt th. human lot,

Affections blight, and memory's blot,
And youths defeat and hopes despair,N
A fate, no human skill may foil,
No place avert, no care evade,--
A fato that brings release from toll,
And yields us mansions heavenly made.
Father thus lesson'd lot my soul,
In calm, the coming stroke await
Yet, do thou still the plague control,
And lengthen lilo, and limit fate,
And bid the stricken sufferer live,
And bid the city smile-and take

FROM THE ARTISAN.
The Barber Revenged.

Lemuel Strop was the son of old
Hezekiah Strnp. the old barber in the
Village of F., and on the death Of
his father, Lem, as he was always called,
succeeded him in the profession. Now
Lem, in his own estimation, was man
of no little consequnce; in fact he had
some grounds for his opinion, as he was
familiar with all the heads ofthe village
One day in September he was exer-
cising his tonsorial functions upon the
face Of the village Squire, and although
the general turn of his mind was rather
humorous than otherwise, bis thoughts
seemed to be engrossed in "A deep study,
when suddenly he was interrupted by
the entrance Of small boy, who pre-
sented him note, neatly folded, which
he opened, and read as follows: "Miss
Ellis compliments to MIR. Strop, and re-
quests the pleasure of his company this
evening at z o'clock"
Although Lem had reached his Odd
year, his phyziognomical profession had
not led him much into the company of
the fair sex. The note he had receiv-
ed had caused some embarrassment in
his mind, and when he had nearly fin
ished shaving the Squire, by an involup-
tary slip of his razor, he had well nigh
cropped the Squire of his right ear.
"Villain," cried the enraged Squire
"what in heavens are you about"
"Pardon me, sir" replied Lem, cit
was by mere accident that have made
a slight incision, in your ear"
"IIl tell you what, my young man."
continued the Squire, ''if This is the way
you shamefully and barberously use your
customers, shall not put your skill to
another trial." S.. .stff.
How this affair terminated I am not
prepared to say; however, it is well
known that it never had any great effect
on his custom, and report says, the
Squire himself had afterwards been seen
at his shop. t i
But to return to my story. Evening
had arrived, and Lem, dressed in his
best suit, was cheerfully directed his
steps to Miss Ellis when he was ac-
costed by Henry Gibson. an old friend
of his, and who was also going 10 the
same place. Now Lem thought this
lucky circumstance, as he was an entire
stranger to most of the company he ex-
pected to meet at Miss Ellis, They
at length arrived at the house, and were
ushered into a room where was a large
company of both sexes. already assem-
bled. In point Of Accomplishment Lem.
was not inferior to the generality Of
Young men Of This rank and fortune, and
he managed to play his part tolerably
well during the amusemens Of the eve-
ming. 1t chanccd that among other of
his good qualities Lem had heart as
ignitable as piece Of tlnder, on which
a glance from lndy's eye ncted like a
spark. He had, in the early part Of the
evening" attached himselfto young La
dy Of whom he had some slight previous
knowledge, and with whom he was fre-
quentIy engaged to conversation. Whe-
ther by desire of listening to the mel
iauops cadsnoss Of their own voices, or
