THE MIsERLY MAN.-Every body has
bad word to say of misery man. The
preacher, the moralist, the wit, and the
satirist are equally severe on the poor mi
ser-whose very name was assigned to
him by the Romans to signify that he is
awretch. -Ntser-miserable. The author
Of the Tin Trumpet says pointedly enough
"a mlser is one who, though he loves
himself better than all others, uses himself
worse, for he lives pauper in order to
enrich bis heirs, whom he naturally hates
because be knows they hate him" But
an old satirist has put the case IL ore poin-
tsdiy still, yet hardly beyond tho truth:

The Director again fixed upon her aston
ished and deferential regards. They said
evidently, "This from Aunt Nella ! Who
would have expected such thing of her ?
Ten thousand rix-dOllars The NoWght
(Nolla) is of more value than | imagined"
Auui Nella, who saw the astonishment
and read the thoughts of the Director,
summed herself, in the expression of his
glances, without rightly comprehending
that they had reference to the ROught
which he had formerly considered as her
ouly value The excitement which had so
lately given him strength, died away on the
departure of the gentlemen, aud he sank
down in his armchair with deep sigh and
almost fainting.

said

aud taking the Directors hand, cannot

me serve you as your son aud as Hertha's
husband My whole life shall prove how

Exactly as a wall of rock raises itself
against rushing food, and dams up its
course, so now rose up the Director, and
gnzed at the two with looks of astonish-
ment, which became all the more rigid and
severe as he exclaimed in broken sentences:
Thank you--thank you--for the offer
Of SO much help; butt believe myself not
altogether incapable Of helping myself, Of
managing my own affairs. / do not feel as

sEvRN YEARS:
THE pArRIARcHAL RELATIONSHIP.


Half a year after the parting which we
have described in the foregoing chapter,
Yagve returned to Sweden, his health re-
established, and full of earnestness, hope,
and activity. Two years afterwards he
was advanced to position in his profession
which gave him the certain prospect of
modest competency for the future, and he
no renewed his request to Hertha's father
for his consent to their union. The Direc-
tor replied that he did not consider Yngve's
prospects as yet sufficiently established
Besides which, his health, he said, wassuch
that he could neither dispense with bis
daughters care at home, nor yet could he
look into the state Of her property. He
considered it best, therefore that the lovers
should yet wait for a year or two.
It was now, that Hertha for the first
time broke the bonds of silence, which long
custom aud inherent reverence for the pa
triarchal guardianship had imposed upon
her. She spoke seriously and plainly with
her father, reminded him of all his prom
ises, told him of her own human right to
dispose of her own person, her own proper
ty, and to determine her own future. She
appealed to him in the name of justice and
of reason; but, ah her father, in his fa-
yor, could oppose against her the decisions
of the law, "the Paternal Statutes" AT
ter he had listened to her with an almost
scoruful calmness, he proved to her out of
the Statule-book itself, that she possessed
no right at all over her own property, over
herself, or her future, otherwise than in as
far as her father would consider it. She
was "a minor in the eye of the law. aud
was bound to guide herself entirely accord
ing to the will of her guardian. His
promises TO her--he could not remember
having made any. If he had ever made
any promises, it could only be on condition
of his fulfilling them in case he found u
| right 10 do so, but that nobody, either by
force or otherwise, should compel him tC
do anything which be was not willing tc
do of himself. He was not one who would
allow himself to be compelled. He hac
now spoken his mind, aud there was al
end of il. a..l4a
Hertha did not this time give way to thu
proud feeling which rose up within her,
She hesought her father to listen to th'
voice of reason; she reminded him, will
tears, Of Alma'S last prayer Nor did sh'
now even demand, she only prayed on be-
knees before him-for her freedom, for he
human right, which If her father would no
grant her from sense Of justice, would III
not do SO out Of kindness aud mercy
But the Director al this moment was ex
cited beyond himser. Did she wish Z
kill him Il be asked, or 10 drive him mad
Could she not wait year or twoY More
be did not ash for And he ended by ap
pealing to her cfIeetion as a daughter, r.
/ Isle ought 70 obey her father, He knew
| what he would have. aud have It he would
end there was an end.'
/ Reader. If thou hast ever prayed 70
