that such an alliance, by the intimidation which 1t

No, many miles from this village lives
an old gentleman aud his wife, by the
name OF Mr.. and Mrs. Brown. One
evening as they were sitting very quietly
in the parlor they were interrupted BY a
knock on the door, and who should enter
but three nelces from New York. MIR.
aud Mrs. Brown were very happy to see
them, and they spent very pieasan,
evening together. Among other topics
OF conversation which were introduced
during the evening was the subject of
eating, and the young ladies' remarked
that there was nothing that they liked
better than fresh fried eggs. According
" before retiring Mrs, Brown requested
Bridget, the servant girl, to go to the hen
coop IN the morning and secure the fresh
est eggs she could find, and have them
fried Tor breakfast.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brown having, on &C.
count OF their visitors sa, up later thar
usual; the consequence was it was late in
the morning when they awoke; but the
young ladies' from the city were not in
the habi, Of going to bed so early and
therefore were up very early in the morn
ing but not too soon for Bridg.t, for she
had got the eggs and had them fried and
breakfast all ready, and was waiting for
them. The young ladies having pretty
good appetl,es, upon seeing the table set,
immediately sat down and ca, then
breakias, before the old folks got up. Az
Ter Mr.. aud Mrs. B. arose and prepared
themselves for breakias, they called the
young ladies' suppos'ng that they had moi
| yet eaten.
The young LADIES' replied that they had
thsr breakfast an hour previous, and one
OF the young ladies' said, Aunt Be,sey
what kind OF birds do you call those
which we had for breakfast
What, said Mrs. b did Bridgrt cook
you birds for breakfast? / told her tt
have some eggs fred for you!
The young ladies said they were not a
all dissatisfied with Bridget's mistake, fol
they never ca, anything they liked bette
than the birds which they had just par,
taken of so freely.
Mrs. b. said no more, but went into
the kitchen and asked Bridget what sht
had prepared for the young ladies break
! lasts.
Faith and done as ye told me to, saiC
Bridget, went ou, and took the egg
from the hen that had been sitting 0!
them so long; sure, and nice and fresl
they were ,oo--why they were quite
warm, ma am.
Dear me, why didn', tell you Bridge
to selec, the fresh onesa Those yo'
nave fried would have fatched tomorrow
But it can't be helped now, and if thu
young ladies should ask you what kim
of birds they were, tell them they wer'
