A Trade, a Fortune.

Not many years ago. Polish lady,
of plebiau birth, but of exceeding beau
ty and accomplishments, won the affec-
tons of young nobleman, who, hav-
ing her consent, solicited her from her
father in marriage and was refused
We may easily imagine the astonish-
ment of the nobIeman.
Am no.,' said he, "of sufficient
rank to aspire to your daughters hand?''
You are undoubtedly of the best
blood of Poland"
And my fortune and reputation, are
they not
Your estate is magnificent, and your
con luct irreproachable.
Then, having your daughters con.
sent, how should expect a refusal"
This, SIR the father replied, "is
my only child, and her happiness is
the chief concern of my life. All tho
possessions of fortune are precarious;
what fortune gives, at her caprice she
takes away. - no security for the
independence and comfortable living of
a wife but one; in word, l am resolved

daughter who is not at the same time
master of a trade''
The nobleman bowed, and retired 81.
lently. A year or two after, the father
was sitting at the door, and saw ap-
preaching the house wagons laden with
baskets, and at the head of the caval-
cade person in the dress of basket
maker. And who do you suppose it
was? The former suitor Of his daugh-
ter; the nobeman had turned basket
maker. lie was now master of trade,
and brought the wares made by his own
hands for inspection, and certificate
from his employer in testimony of his
skill.
The condition being fulfilled, no fur
ther obstacle was opposed to the mar
riage. But the story is not yet done.
The Rev luton came; fortunes were
plundered, and lords were scattered as
chaif before the four winds of heaven.
Kings became beggars, some of them
teachers; and the noble Pole supported
his wife. and her father in the infirmities
of age, by his basket-making industry.

AN AWKWARD DENoUEMENT.-Afe few
weeks ago. young, handsome, accom-
plished, and iashionably dressed lady,
took up her quarters in respectable
boarding house, and represented that
she was from Cincinnati, unmarried,
with ample means. One youthful exqui.
site seemed to be particularly success
full in his attempts to gain her favorable
consideration. One unlucky evening
both were seated upon sofa in the par
lor. Suddenly the door.bell tinkled,
and the next moment entered a tall. state
ly man OF respectable appearance who
stalked right into the parlor and halted
full before the loving pair. The lady
gave one glance to the intruder, then
uttered a shrill scream. and exclaimed, !,
my husband !" From facts subse-
quently learned, it appeared the lady
was a resident Of Philadelphia, and
married to highly respectable gentle-
man of that city. They had been uni
ted for about two years. when the fond.
ness of the lady for Irritation. giddy
headed female associates, and gay young
men. caused decided row between her
and her liege lord. The quarrel ended
in the flight of the wife 10 this city. a.
above stated, but the husband, learning
of her Whereabouts, came on and sur
prised her in the the midst of the affec-
tiona,e tete a-tets with her admirer. The
dispute was settled between the lady
and her husband, and finally both start
ed back amicably enough to return to

Mary shuddered and drew back-thcrs
was that in its hollowness, which might
make even devils tremble. Overhead
the sentinel stars kept their tireless
watch, and Mary's heart grew soft uns
der their gentle influence, and tears
stole from beneath her lashes and lay
like pearls upon her bosom, =
You need not wait to undress me.
said Mary to the weary looking waiting
maid, as she averted her swollen eyes
from her gaze; and taking the lamp
from her hand, Mary passed up to her
chamber. So noiseless was the fall OF
her light foot on the carpet, that Mark
did not know she had entered. He sat
with his back to the door, bending over
the cradle. till his white, snowy locks
touched the babes rosy cheeks, talking
to it, as it were to beguile his loneliness
"Mary's forehcad-Mary's eyes

father than a rosebud is like chestnu

looking at her through mist of tears /;
"you don't mean that you will love an
old fellow like me? God bless you Mary.
God forever bless you! I have been very.

happiness.
The gaping world, tho far-sighted
world, the charitable world shook it's

must be failing; others. that her hus-
band had become jealous at last, willis
old stagers maliciously insinuated that
it was wise to retire on fresh laurels.
But none said what we say, that true
woman's heart may always be won, aye.

not consider it beneath him to step off
the pedestal of his dignity to learn how:

you. Would you object, sir, in the pres
ence, and with the consent of my moth
er, to unite me with that gentleman ?"
If the minister was astonished at this
request, Charles was infinitely more SO.
What did you say susy ?" said he
"Did l hear Alright 2"
II believe so," said susy, smiling at
his eager amazement. "Does the scheme
meet approval? ?"
lit was heaven.inspired !" criet! the
poor fellow, frantic with joy; but a
shade coming over his radiant face, he
added gravely. "But, Susy, have you
considered ? Remember, l want your
love, not your gratitude. / will be sat-
isied with nothing less"
do not be concerned about that,
Charles" replied Susy, gazing at him
very tendcrly through her tears. "be
assured you have them both, and had
the first long before you had the last"
but, Susy, you said only yester-
day"
Never mind what I said yesterday"
interrupted Susy, with some of her old
spirit breaking out. "Just mind what
l say to-day. If | was fool once, is
that any reason ] must be one always :?
But, indeed, Charles" she added more
softly, Il have always meant to be your
wife-the only scruple l have is, that
I am not half good enough for you"
1t is needless to say how this discuss
ion ended. The reader has already
OWNED that Charles continued his jour
ney, and thus, in the course of one
eventful day, he risked life. saved a
life, made an impromptu marriage, and
set out on most unexpected wedding
trip.
