was more than half filled with Mr. Elswor-
thy's forefather's but there was n good
wide oat, in the vault. and no want of air.
It was all right. The clerk and the clcr-
gymcn started off to their homes; the
morning coaches went to the Crown Inn,
where the laGies were to wait till the SEX
ton came to let them know he was safe out
tho cousin would not go home without
that news-and slipped him the key at
the church door. as he dscoursed to us all
about the mysterious dspcnsations of Prov
iicnce.
My heart was light going home, so were
Steele'sand Stoncmans. None OF us liked
the job, but we were all to he paid for it
and | must say the old man came down
handsomely with the needful not to speak
cf Burton ale; and was to be made his
partner without delay. We got the mon-
cy and had the iolifcatiOn, but it wasn't
right over, and was just getting into bed,
when there was a ring at our door bell.
and the llousekeeper came to say that DR..
Parks wanted TO see me or my uncle
What could he want and how had he come
back so soon! Parks was the ElsWortiy' s
family doctor. and was the only stranger
at the funeral he went in the second
mourning coach, and lett him talking to
the sexton. My clothes were thrown on
and was down stairs i'm u m,nutc, look
ing as sober as | could. but the doctors
look would have sobered any man. Thorn

Elsworthy has died in earnest When the

| fright, for such Il face of terror never saw.
1t wasn't your uncle's fault; there is no
doubt he had air enough, but it cannot be
helped; and the less said about it the bet
ter for all parties. | am going to DR.. Ad.
ans to take him down at Beverly. The
sexton keeps poor Elsworthy to see if any
thing can he done. and Adams is the only
man we can trust. but know it's no use.
The Doctors apprehension was well
founded-Mr. Elsworthy could not he re-
covered; they laid him down again in the
coffin with air-holes. The lapes came
back, and we kept the secret; but in less
than six months after. Il rnmor went abroad
of heavy iorgeries OH the Northeastern
Bank. On investigation they proved to
be over fifty thousand, and nobody was
implicated but the deceased manager.-
His family knew nothing about it, being all
ladies. they were entirely ignorant of bank
ing affairs: but they left York next season,
took a handsome house at Scarborough.
and were known to get money regularly
from London. They never employed any
doctor but Parks. and his Scdical manage
ment did not appear to prosper, for they
were never well and always nervous; not
one of them could sleep alone, or without
a light in the room and an attendant from
a private asylum had to be got for the cous
in. don't think the matter ever left my
uncle's mind he never would undertake
an odd job after it. and all the partnership;
in England would not have made me con
time IN the business, and run the risk oi
another false funeral.

Rural Matters.

Almts. all the apples there are in pur
vicinity. this year, are the produce Of : Cung
trees. Old trees seeming to be in q tUlcr-
able healthy condition are almost destitute
of fruit.
The apple crop in Franklin county is =
very limited one this year. A friend tells
ns that he dried 7eJ pounds last year. whlie
this year he shall have but barely enough
for his own use,
When old apple trees bear fruit it is
inferior in quality TO that which is grown
on middle aged trees. Nor can we get
good specimens OF grated fruit the first
two or threeyears after the trees commence
b, airing.
Why Is it that the apple trees which
howered SO abundantly last spring, have
so little fruit on them! Because the VIZ
taiity Of the trees was so far exhausted il.
maturing so many flowers that they were
unable 10 carry out fruit.
1t is sometimes said that Young or
chard cannot he raised where an old one
stood. We know better. When trees
are getting old, set out young ones bctwcen
them or between the rows, and with prop
er care they will do well.
Our ncighbor who last fall mulchcd q
part of his apple-trees with hay and weeds:
thinks that the apples on these trees are
much larger than those on the trees not so
treated. We have observed as the result
of our own experiments. that the mulched
trees have much larger growth than
trees similarly situated, which were NOS
mn,ched. Hay is worth ten dollars toni
for muIchins apple.trees.-Frankln Coua-
m Chronicle.

A Gorgeous Spectacle.

| The hall given in honor of the Sultan at
| the India House IN London, was superb
affair. The Times describes the dcco:a-
| tonS:
One would almost need to write in gold
and color to give any fair impression Of
the brilliant aspect which the ball room
presented. Everything that flowers, cost
~ draperies, gliding, mirrors. lights and
above all, splendid architecture, could give
to add brillancv and splendor to the scene
were there. and when, shortly before yisi-
tors were admitted. the whole place was
lighted up for the fct". its appearance Has
really beautiful beyond description. One
of the most charming, and one of the most
suitable features of the decorations, was
the display OF flowers. ferns and rare exot-
ic shrubs. Every nook and corner sur
rounding the staircases. every landing.
and every gallery was Il perfect bower Of
plants and flowers.
A special room was set apart for the
reception of the illusirious visitors. This
overlooked the park. and was so draped
and fitted with mirrors and gliding as to
make IL most elegant little saloon. Its
elorics, however, We're as nothing compar
ed with those of the chamber specially set
apart for the Sultan's reception and the
Sultnn's sumner. This was the India
Couucil Room, one of the most beautifully
decorated of nil the fine apartments in the
n.w offices. Exeept its superbly-caryed
mantlrpiece, in itself perfect monument
and work of art, very little was seen of its
other decorations Yesterday evening. All
Darts of its walls were covered with rich
draperics gracefully festooned, aud all ie
treasures of Windsor and buckingham
Palace had been ransacked to lend addi
tional splrndor to its adornment. At the
uppcr end under which his imperial Males
ty was 10 sit at supper was a trophy of
massiyc,go,den plate. There were shields.
and cups. and salyers, as large as any
shield, the rarest and most antique speci-
mems of workmanship of their kind, one
or two being from the hand of that great
master Benvenlo Celliui. and Others dating
as far back for their origin as the DAYS ot
Qnrcn Elizabeth.
Mixed with these, so as to form back
ground to their brillancy. were the time
| Ihonored regimen.a standard of many reg
imcnts, all covered with glorious names of
victories achieved, some dim and dusty
looking in their faded glories, aud others

Undersold Himself

Old Jacob j was shrewd Quaker
merchant in Burlington; N. j., and like all
shrcwd men, was often a little too smart
for himself.
And old Quaker lady of Bristol. lust
over the river, bought some goods at Js-
cob,s stoie achenhe ras absent, and in cross
ing the river on her way home. she met
him on board the boat, and, as usual with
him ubon such occasions. he Immediately
pitched into her bundle of goods. and un
tied 1t to see what she had been buving.-
80 now says he ''how much yard did
you give for that, and that, and that tax
ing up the several pieces of good. She told
him the price, without, however, saying
where she had got them.
80 now, says he again Il could have
sold you those goods at so much yard,
mentioning price a great deal lower than
she paid. You know. says he, can under
sell everybody in the place and so he
went on. criticising and under yaluing the
goods, till they reached Bristol, when he
was invited to so to the old lady's store,
and when there the goods were sprcod out
on the counter, and Jacob was asked to ex
anime the goods again, and say in the pres
ence OF with csses the price he could sell
theni at per yard, the old lady. meanwhile
taking a memorandum, She then went
to the desk. and made out bill of the
difference between what size had paid and
the price lie had told her; then, coming
up to to him she said:-
"Now, Jacob, thee is sure thee could OF
sold these goods at the price mention
ed!
. now, yes says he,
w ell, then. thy young ian must ofmade
a mistake; for | bought the goods at thy
store. and of course, under the crcumstan-
ces thee can have no objection to refund ME
the difference.
Jacob thus being corncred, could of
course under the circumstances. have no
objection. Its presumed that thereafter
jacobs first enquiry must.of been, 0 now
where did You set such ana sch goods
instead of o how much did you pay!

lotted for the use OF the imperial party.
Such were the most prominent features
of the preparations made to receive his
Majesty, but, as we have said already. No
amount of mere description would do jus
tice to the splendor of their effect when
seen as they were last night. Amid all the
glow OF thousands of lights shed upon the
brllliancy of state uniforms and court drcs-
ses. the spectacle of the imperial reception
was really one of grandeur
The list of the names Of the guests fills
four columns of the Times, in the smallest
type used in that paper.

The way it Came About.

Old Adam mounted his lonely walk
And notiiins found to please him;
He ~aily neCu,d one to talk,
10 tics ir and 10 tease hun.
So wiica the Lord 4 rib bcsought,
10 make another hum,l,
ca, Lord said he, lake all I've got,
And iix ne up a wunlau.'
