The last part Of the sentence was lost as the old
lady hastily left the room
Mr.. Shiltey felt strongly inclined to make clean
breast of it, at once, when the deacoDs wife, who
had thus far taken no part in the conversation,
said
Il suppose Pm not like other folks think a
good deal of soma niggers l think some of them
are real smart, ard ought to be treated kindly in
their place.
'Sartin,' said the deacon, 'sartn but the plaguy

ly, and you just spoil them. Look o. Sal Daily,
she was treated kindly by every body, and what
did it come to ?
Sal Daily said Mrs. Seely, and it was evident
her wrath was rising, Sal Daily was a smart &C.
tive wench-could handle herself better than some
white folks that could name. When she worked
for me, seldom had to find fault and she was
just as neat as wax, keeping everything neat and
in its place.
Very weli,' said the deacon. 'You know Sal
had good deal of white in her, may be two.

treated Sal well, and you know how it ended
Yes, replied the wife, I know how it ended
Was she member of the church p said Shil.

'Well,' said the deacon, Il suppose she a,kind.a

4 know how it ended, Mr. Seely. know how
it ended, and hope that rascal-rich mans son
though he oe-will come to as bad an end said
Mrs. Seely. 4 don't hope, that is, don't wish
any harm to anybody-I hope DON'T she said
in low tone. But, think that man will get his
own pay in his own kind yet. Sal Daily was just
as good in the sight of God as he is and, may.
be, little better. Treated kindly p she added,
while her lip cured, and her eye-which was re-
ally a fine eye-fashed little, tell you what,
Mr.. Seely, if that man comes into the church. as
you tell about, goes out for one, that you may
depend upon. What care for his money! His
money can't bring back poor Sal Daily. A great
help to the church, you say; it's my opinion the
church has had too much OF that kind of help al.

Deacon Seely,' said the wife,-and che fixed
upon her husbands face a look Of such searching
earnestness as brought that gentleman's eyes to
the carpet,-'Deacon Seely, do you think that
woman, mother IN the agones Of death, would
speak falsely about the father of her child p
Shame on you, Deacon Seely il you can believe
such thing Sal Daley never went to the judg

very gifted, aud should not wonder it, by.andby

in his religion if he docs pay the highest subscrp

and cry, and talk in the meetings about being filed

child home to his own house, puts it under the
