THE BARGAIN FOR A WIFE.

A young Norfolk farmer, on beginning life
with limited capital, found that two things
were wanting to do justice to large Farm
which he rented ON long lease-namely, a
wife TO rule the house at home, aud an addi-
tional thousand pounds to invest upon the
land. Like a sagaclous man, he conceived
that the two might be found combined, and
he began to look about for cheerful lass with
dowry to the desired amount. Accident
threw him one day into company with the
person Of neighboring parish, with whom,
as he rode home while returning from mar
ket, he fell into conversation. Encouraged
by the divine the youth unburdened himself
Of his cares and plans, and mentioned the
desire he had for marrying as soon as he could
find an agreeable lass with moderate dOwry.
"l tell yOu," said the parson, I've got
three daughters. and very nice girls they are,
assure you. Suppose you come and dine
with me next market day-you will meet
them at the table and il any Of them should
prove TO be the inevitable She that YOU are
in search Of, shall not be backward to do
nv part as far as can"
!" Agreed" said the youth. :" III come
as sure as you're alive. ii you'll say nothing
about il to the ladies'"
" That shall be bargain. On Saturday
next. then, We shall have YOU at dinner, at
fiye."
And here their roads di,erging, tie two
gentlemen separated.
At the appointed hour on the following
Saturday, the young farmer, in handsome
trim, descended from his galloway at the
parsons door. Dinner was served a lew
minutes after, and the Young ladies. with
their mother, gracpd the table with their pre-.
sence. All three fully justified the encomi-
ums Of their father but the youngest-a rosy
faced, roguish, cheerful lass just escaped
from her tecns-alane made vivid impress
sion upon the young farmer. The repast
progressed agrccably, aud, when ended, the
ladies' Withdrew, leaving the gentlciaen 70
chat over the wine.
Well" said the host, "what do you
think Of my girls !"
~ think them all charming" said the
youth " but the ynungcst--yOu called her
Nelly-really j: most bewitehing, and clever
too aud il am 10 have the honor 0t being
allied 20 you, van must give me her."
THAT is against all rule" returned the
host: "to take the youngest iirst, but, oil
course, cannot control your choice. What
dowry do Won cxpect:"

affair is at end but we will be good friends
notwithstanding"
The conversation which each speaker sup
posed to be strictly private, now fell into
another channel. The ladies returned with
the ter-urn, and chatted unreseryedly with
the farmer. Evening came on, and towards
sunset, the girls having stro!led into the gar
den, the youth rose to take his leave Hefound
his nag in the stable, and having bid farewell
to his host, took his way through the snrab-
berry that led to the road He was about
alighting to open the gate, when the rosy
faced Nelly darted forward to save him the
trouble. As she lifted the latch, she archly
looked up into his face and said:
Cant you take my fathers money!"
Yes, by Jove will, il you wish it."
"Then come over to the church to-mor-
row morning, and tell him SO alter service !"
and she vanished like an elfn sprite among
the shrubbery.
Musng on the proverb which says, /" walls
have ears the young farmer rode home. He
did not tail--hOw could he?--of attending at
the church the next morning, aud after the
sermon declared to the parson his altered
resolution. He married the fair Nelly three
months afterwards and she brought, in due
course of years, a row Of goodly sons, than
whom there are few at the present hour wiser
in their generation, or more worthy or more
wealthy, in the whole OF broad England

we looked significantly at each other, and said
nothing. Still waters are sometimes yerydeep,
At last the carriage came round, and we
got in; two Of US beside the other, who was
to drive, there was room for more, but it was
quite out of her line, the mother said, to 60
on dashing drive before breakfast; SO we
left her on the piazza with pickle dish IN
her hand, and wiping her eyes with her apron.
1t was half mile TO the depot. and the sun
not quite risen when we started. How bslmy
the air was, that soft September morning.
We thought, egotists that we were, in our
happiness, that nature sympathised with us.
II seemed as if there never had been so fair
a sun rising before, and as il half the glory Of
the morning would have been wasted had Liz
zie not been coming home.
The cars had not arrived when we stopped
at the station, but we heard the whistle Of the
locomotive, not very distant; and those few
sweet waiting moments-what a world Of
blessed anticipation they held. The sun was
rsng-ah Lizzie Lizzie!
At last the train came up-stOpped. We
looked al the windows only a row Of sad IA
ces! Lizzie must have sat on the other side.
A few passengers came out solemn.taced
and silent. We pressed fnrward-so did
those who were going out Of the train. The
conductor appeared and waved everybody
back, then motioned to somebody in The car.
Two men came out and slowly descended the
steps. bearing a llleless body--a woman; her
features covered by ayeil. They bore it into
the saloon. and laid il reverently upon the
sofa. Sill the conductor waved the crowd
back--except our party! lie knew Us, and
turned away his face as we approached.
THIN we knew hog it was; all except the
father; he could not believe Firmly he
raised the veil from the dead face. Oh, God
All merclful! Is it thus we meet thee, Liz
zie, darling, our best beloved, idol ol our
hearts.
In brief time we learned the story.
Learned how the Angel Of the Lord had met
Lizz!e' before US. in the still twilight Of the
Autumn morning. and after one pang, terrible
we knew, but brief, had waited her gentle
spirit to those who waited for her in the home
OF angels!
AT the very last stopping place Lizzie had
left the car 10 procure some food for little
child that had tretted all night in the arms Of
a wearried mother. The train stopped but a
moment !; it was dusk, and none of the Off
cias had seen her leave it. She returned has
tily, TO find it moving made a mis-step, fell
forward-and the rest is common tale, such
as newspapers chronicle every week. The
beautiful head with lis sunny eurIs-was what
we saw at the station house!

fertilizers, lime for instance, become so vslu-
able an addition to the soil.
More might be added, but enough. | give
the main reasons only, which The experience
of every one who tries this plan will be found
to justify.
lfit be objected, as probably II will, that
this course must be attended by a great
sacrifice OF rail timber. because rails cut at
the time named SO soon decay and become
worthless; we admit il freely; but this is a
small matter, compared with the manifest ad>
yantages, and is moreover easily set aside.
To obviate il, cut rail timber at the proper
season, on some other part Of your land or
IL 1t be SO scarce with you as to make scoring
an object, then reserve in your clearing such
trees as are fit for rails, till the right season
Tor cutting them comes around. They will
be but few, and il cut low, though'the roots of
these will be longer rotting out than the other
trees, the Inconvenience will scarcely be felt,
as there will at least be no stumps left to annoy
YOU.
Let il be remembered, we speak here only
of the time and manner of telling trees. Work
off Oiher parts Of the clearing process as you
the surface as possible, and during the mouth
OF Augnsl, a. all events from the | 9Th OF July
to the 18th Of September. Depend upon it
that is the most elfectual season for killing
out timber Of any kind, and on observing
these rules, you will find real economy Of
time and labor.

A CRY WORDS.

Angry words are lightly spoken,
Ia rash and thoughtless hour;
Brightest links Of love are broken
By their deep insidious power;
Hearts inspired by warmesi feeling,
Ne'er before by anger stir'd.
OF are rent past human healing
By single angry word.
Poison drops Of care and sorrow,
Bitter poison drops are they;
Leaving for the coming morrow
Saddest memories Of to-day.
Angry words, Q let them never
From the tongue unbridled slip;
May the hearts best impulse ever
Check them ere they soil the lip.
Love Is much too pure and holy,
Friendship is too sacred far,
For a moments reckless folly
Thus to dcsolale and mar.
Angry words are lightly spoken,
Bit,ercst thoughts are rashly s,iu'd;
Brightest links Of love are broken
By single angry word.
