The Reverend benjamin Blythe olssped his
hand, together IN such an emotion OF joyful
thankfulnoss a. 10 make Mr. Winkler start
The blood rushed from his heart 10 his face
In crimson tide, leaving the treasure-house
Of hopes and feelings vacan, tenement, and
then rushed back again 10 make the citadel OF
life rock. and reel and throb with overpower-
ing fullncss. None bot those who have lived
long upon hope deferred, lived upon medicine
rather than food, can tell what our hero eS-
perienoed. Brgh, visions OF happiness troop
ed before his eyes. his children rosy with
health and joyousness. his wife smiling with
eonicnlmeni, his household hearth the centre
OF comfort, his board plenteously spread,
something for his brethren the poor the means
81 education for his little ones, the thousand
things that he knew they wanted, and then,
for himself-O, he was TO be unspeakably hap
~ in beholdiug their happiness.
Ny dear fellow said Mr. Winkler, you
look like any thing bu, philosopher. II you
had only been on tho stage, that attitude and
those ewes would have made your fortune
quite stamped you as great uagedian; but
now that is over, pray go IN at once, and thank
Lord Wychcrly for yonr new preterment-
VIVA, fortunate thing tina, should have hap
pened TO have met you.
Had not better 90 home and consult his
lordshlp's letter. and then could tell my wife,
and the children
by no means II wonld delay you too long
and make you seem Indifferent to your good
fortune. Ii will be quite time enough when
YOU have seen his lotdship. | think it an ex-
cccdingly lucky thing that me, with you-he
would havo though, you so ,ardy. Pray go
Al once. Ia ha, ha, | can't for my life
help laughing to see you so amazed Now go,
lcft his ordshp quite disengaged Wonder

sotly a, the door. Bot bark you, Blythe, YOU
must not mention who told you Of your APP
pointment, his lodship might think 1t Off
oiousness in me-
Certainly said Blythe, certainly not
And will you just be so good continued
Mr.. Winkler, as lie hastily took from his pock-
~ book one Of those envelopes that fashion
has made almost universal in our own most
polished DAYS, and wrote what seemed TO be a
memorandum within. Just I've good as 10
give my lord that iItile memorandum II con-
,ans some information essential for him to
explain itself He will perfectly understand
II. And don't mention my name at all, Blythe
know he would think me a very Cf1iclous fell

lucky fellow YOU are, Ha, ha, ha' Good
bye good bye.
The Reverend BENJAMIN Blythe walked up
that lofty hgh, Of steps without perfectly
knowing whether he accomplished the ascen,
on bis head OF on his heels. His brain was
in \ perfect bewildermon, his limbs remb-
led, his knees shook, his tongue Glove to the
roof Of his mouth. Had some sudden msfor-
tune hefallen him, he could not have fel, more
PROSTATE IN mind And II was thus, because
he had been in training for sorrow. Grief up
on grief had dogled his very footsteps, as step
by step he had advanced in the dark road Of
adversely, and it's glooms had gathered more
and more heavily but his eyes were now well
used 10 The murSy pathway, and when, instead
OF densof darkness, the beams of prosperity
shone on his path, he was well nigh blinded
by the unaccustomed light.
But We pass before our hero up these for
NAL steps. through that stately hall, along
those ApaCious corridors, over a long suite OF
rooms, into the very presence OF the peer.--
Here all was stern, siIH. severe propreiy the
chairs looked as Il they were never designed

hurry. no hustle, no hying here and hurying
there. Silence seemed TO echo itself, and an
