shall sign the pledge and keep your
self out of the way of temptation at

to your own. Think Leslie, yesterday

'' Dlue,- Jacuiatcd the redeemed,
as he fell upon his knees and hailed
the old man as his father-his deliv-
ercr.
My son." said Mr.. Marshall, mas,
tering his own deep emotion, ~ will
leave you now to your own reflections,
pray that you be not led into tcmpta-
ton, and he left him alone.
The plans of the good merchant
were speedily arranged. He would
employ Leslie one year and allow him
to board in his family, thus giving him
the blessing of home. Mrs. NJ. en-
tered heartily into her husbands plans,
and our wandercr began a new life
with heart swelling with gratitude
and repentance, with courage and
hope. The thought of his distant
home, and the heart treasures it con-
tanned, checred him in his hours of la
Dor, and when evening came he found
by the quiet fireside of his employer,
comfort and peace. Oh how he longed
to send over the waters one missive,
full of the brcathings of his affection,
and longings for forgiveness a? But
his benetactor had advised him to wait
until the time Of his trial was past
and he should be confident of success !;
should be certain that his reform
was thorough and complete. Leslie
felt the justice Of his friends remark,
and was satisfied to know that ere
another summer, golden-haired Kitty
and wee Willie would come to dwell
with him in an American home.
The year Of Harry Lcslc's trial is
past, and he is taking leave Of the
good pair whose kindness has been
his salvation. Harry said the old
man, " | have just arranged little
affair which you must consent to.
Iou know my business will depend
prlhcipatiV upon you next year, ana
have Il house not far from the store
which you shall have rent free, if you
will accept it. | am going down to
the wharf with you, and as we shall
pass, you must step i'll and look at 1t
and then you can tell Margaret just
what kind of place you are coming
to.n
Harry's heart was too full for words,
and ringing tho OLD ladv'S hand he
quilted the house which he had learned
to love So dearly, and with feeling
Of sadness directed his footsteps to-
wards the place of embarkation.
" Harry said Mr. Marshal, here,
here is the place." and they entered.
1t was pleasant and comfortable

into a parlor. Harry looked around
him. Surely this was his own por-
trait that adorned the wall the door
