ness OF his disposition he was twenty
seven years old, and had never yet asked,
for what purpose girls had been created
True, all the people, especially dam
sells of a certain age. willingly forgave
him this sin, and looked upon him, as one
of the best young men under the sum-
His fine figure, his fresh unembarrassed
manner, his look, his laugh, enabled him
to gain the favorable opinion of the afore-
said people, who would have forgiven
him, had there been occasion, any one Of
the deadly sins. Butthe descision of such
judges is not always to be trusted.
While both old, and young at Napoule
had become reconciled to the innocent
Marietta, and had proffered their sympa-
thles to her, Colin was the only one who
had no pity on the poor child. If Mari
eta was talked of, he became as dumb
as fish If he met her in the street, he
would turn red and white with anger, and
cast sidelong glances at her of the most
malicious kind.
If, at evening, the young people met
upon the sea shore, by the old castle
ruins, for the sprightly pastimes, or usual
dances, or to sing catches, Colin was the
merriest among them. But as soon as
Marietta arrived the rascally fellow was
silent, and all the gold in the world
couldn't make him sing.-What a pity,
when he had such fine voice Every
body listened to it, and its store of songs
was endless.
All the maidens looked kindly on Co
lin, and he was friendly with them all
He had, as we have said, roguish
glance, which the lasses feared, and Il v
ed and it was 50 sweet they would like
to have it painted. But, as might natur-
ally be expected the offended Marietta
did not look graciously upon him. And
in that she was perfectly right Wheth-
er he smiled or not, it was all the same
to her. AS to his roguish glance, she
would never hear it mentioned /; and
therein TOO, she was perfectly right
When he told tale (and he knew thou
sands) and every body listened, she nudg-
ed her neighbor, or perhaps, threw
tufts of grass, at Peter, or Paul; and
laughed and chattered and did not Ii ten
to Colin at-al. This behavior quite pro-
voked the proud fellow, so that he would
break off in the middle of his story, and
stalk sullenly away.
Revenge is sweet. The daughter Of
mother Manon well knew how to triumph,
Yet Marietta was quite too tender heart
ed. If Colin was silent it gave her pain.
If he was downcast, she laughed no more.
II he went away, she did not stay long
behind; hut hurried TO her home, and
wept tears of repentance, more beautiful
than those of the Magdalen, although
she had not sinned like the Magdalen.

pretty well known through all Provence.

Father jerome, the pastor OF Napoule,
was an old man of seventy, who possess
ed all the virtues of a saint, and had only
one falling which was, by reason of bis
advanced age, he was hard of hearing.
But on that account, his homilies were
more acceptable to the people of his bap-
tism, and blessing. True, he preached
only on two subjects, as If they compre-
hended the whole of religion. 1t was
either, Little children love one an
other" or it was, Mysterious are the
ways of Providence" And truly, there
is so much Faith, Love and Hope in these,
that one might. at pinch, be saved by
them. The little children loved one an
other, most obedienlly, ard trusted in
the ways of Providence. Only Colin,
with his finty heart, would hear nothing
of either; for when he professed to be
friendly, he entertained the deepest NAL
ice.
The Napoulese went to the annual
market or fair of the city of Vence. 1t
was truly joyful time, and though they
had but little gold to buy with, there were
many goods to look at. Now Marietta
and mother Manon went to the Fair with
the rest, and Colin was there also. lie
bought great many curiosities and tri-
fes for his friends, but he would not
spend farthing for Marietta; and yet
he was always at her elbow, though he
did not speak to her, nor she to him. 1t
was easy to see that he was brooding
over some scheme of wickedness
Mother Manon stood gazing before a
shop, when she suddenly exclaimed =
"Oh! Marietta, see that beautiful cup

ABOUT THE WICKED COLIN.

All men, however, are not endowed
with tender sympathy but some have
hearts hardened like Pharoah's. This
arises, no doubt, from that natural de-
pravity, which has come upon men, in
consequence of the fall of Adam; or be-
cause, at their baptism. the devil is not
brought sufficiently, under subiection.
A remarkable example. of this hard
ness of heart was given by one, Colin,
the richest farmer, and proprietor in Ma
poule, whose Vineyards and olive gardens,
whose lemon. and orange trees, could
hardly be counted in day. One thing
particularly demonstrates the perverse-

Bad Property.-Some twenty years
ago, there was an old darkey named Cato,
living in the eastern part of North Caro-
lima, near the mouth of one of the rivers
that empty into Pamlico Sound. Cato
was ferryman at the point, and his mas
ter allowed him certain portion of his
wages, with an agreement that he might
purchase his freedom for six hundred dol
lars. He had saved up three hundred
and handed it to his master and rejoiced
in the possession of one-half of himself
One night not long after, as he was cross
ing the ferry alone a violent storm arose
His boat was tossed about and finally
upset, and Cato, after great exertion, sue.
ceeded in reaching the shore. The next
morning he presented himself with the
following inquiry :
Massa John, / wants to ak you who
owns dis nigga Z"
why, own one half of you, Cato
you own the other half r.
"Well, Massa, won't you please buy
back my half"
"If you desire it, Cato. But what has
changed your mind SO suddenly :"
jest please han ever dem free hundred
dollars Come near gettin' drownded las
night. Nigga property is d--n bad
