Jack stood boldly up, and unhesitatingly
replied to the various questions which were
put to him. e....# ..r s....H-s .-
"That will do, my good boy Now, when
do you think you will be able to come and
bring me some more money!" -. f.

Il I'm alive and well, sir" .r.
"That was wisely added. my lad, for our
lives are not in our own keeping. This, |
see you have been taught"
Another week passed, and again Jack ap-
peared, hutRhs countenance now wore an
aspect OF sadness. ...
Il am very sorry, SIR" he said, Il have
been unfortunate, and have only a small
sum to give you" And as he spoke, he
laid three penny worth of half-pence before
Mr.. Cavendish. II assure you SIR" he
earnestly added * have offered my services
to every gentleman on horseback that |
could see"
81 believe you my boy. ! am pleased
! with your honest intentions. Perhaps you
will meet with better success another time
Let me see; you have now paid one shilling
and five pence; that is not amiss for tie
| tme;" and with an encouraging smile Mr..
Cavendish suffered him to.depart.
Though Mr.. Cavendish had, from the
first, concealed his intentions, his heart was
planning work of benevolence, which was
nothing less than to befriend the poor boy,
whose noble conduct had won his admira-
ton. For this end he, Il feT days subse,
quently, paid the parents a visit when he
knew that the son would be at school he
related the incident which had brought him
under his notice, and proceeded to ask
whether his couduct towards themselves was
equally praiseworihy.
"0h yes, sir" exclaimed the mother. her
eyes filing with tears. ale has ever been
a dutiful child TO u.s.. and always acts in
| this honest, straightforward manner" I'D.
/ "He has indeed noble spirit, SIR" the
father rejoined and am proud Of him as il
he were prince"
"Would you part with him?' Mr.. Cav
endish asked. II have something in view
for his future benefit" ..... .....
Undoubtedly we would for his benefit"
was the reply of both. a' '1...-o.
"Well, then, purchase him a new suit Of
apparel with these tive guineas, and bring
him to my residence this day week. will
: then acquaint you with my views for the
future" "
Language cannot describe the heartfelt
gratitude which zbeamed in the eyes of the
happy parents, nor. could they find word:
to give it utterance. ....t... ....
/ Waen hexbour young hero came into the
/ presence of his benefactor, his appearance
! was. certainly altered tor the better, though
no disadvantages of dress could rob his no
bic countenance of its lofty expression, Mr.
\ Cavendish had previously made arrange.
mens for him to become an inmate of MS
own house, and had also entered his name
as pupil in = neighborng school.
! John Wjllims is now receiving q liberal
education, and enjoying all the adv antages
which wealth can procure. Such sudden
change opposition and prospect would, in
many instances, prove injurious to the mo-
raj character; but with mind hased upon
the solid principles which our young friend
possesses. little fear may be entertained that
such will be the result.
The above little sketch is authentic in eve
ry respect, excepting the names OF the par
ties concerned. The events occurred a few
months ago, and are here made public, with
the hope that the truth and honesty, and
4 judicious benevolence exhibited, may slim
