THE PROMISE FULFILLED.

BY d. e. CoLEsWoRTHY.
How sweet and tender are the words
Which flow from hearts that feel!
They vibrale on the ienderes, chords,
And only bruise TO heal.
Bring these. and like rich music's swell
Upon placid lake,
They'll sink upon the heart and dwell,
And grateful thoughts awake.
Charles Emerson was the son of a
mechanic. When he left school he
entered the store of merchant in Fore
street. as his clerk. Bright, active and
intelligent, he secured the favor Of his
master and the good will of those who
traded at tho store. For six or seven
years, Charles was attentive to his bust
ness and cxerted himself for his en-.
poyer. When he arrived at one and
twenty years Of age. he came under
an obligation 10 remain with his en-
ploycr another twelve month for speci-
fied sum. The year passed and young
Emerson concluded to commence bust.
ness in his own name. The merchant
did not wish TO part with one who had
been so faithful TO him for series Of
years, but as he thought it might be adj
vantageous to the young man, he en-
outraged him to 90 into business for
himself. In few weeks Charles was
in his store. His goods had been well
selected, and purchased low. By the
assistance Of a few friends, he com
menced business with a good capital,
and the prospect for him appeared TO
be excellent. His acquaintances were
numerous, both in the city and acoun-
try. His noble character was appreci-
ated by all whom he ever had dealings.
\ few years passed away, during which
time the young merchantprospercd be-
yond his most sanguine expectations.
His business had increased yearly year,
and his stock was rs large as any mer-
chants in the city. No mans credit
was better than his. Amid his pros.
perity, however, Charles was not un-
mindful of others. He was always
rcady-to assist honest young men who
were strivin, for livelihood. HHd4se
rid faciIl'iesl0 being useful toSthefss
BGns ch6sSa adircctor in one of our

rcfused a small note from young man.
