In the year 1856 my father died and
left my mother, my sister Agatha and N.Y.
self wretched and almost penniless.
He died suddenly-of appoplrxy; and
when the fnneral obsequics were over
We found that our creditors were not af-
ficted with superabundance Of either
sympathy or charity. My father had al
ways been ''good liver;" and lived up
conscientiously and financially to the pro-
verb about letting tomorrow take care Of
itself. It is not the best way, where a
man has others depending upon him, and
who, if he were wrested from them. would
be called upon to confront adversely and
it's attendant SORROWS But no matter.
When his house and grounds and eco
nomic effects were disposed of for the ben
eft of clamorsome creditors, my mother.
Agatha and I, found ourselves. as have
said, wretched and homeless and friend
less too. ''My children, what are we to
do3" said my mother. turning her eyes
lustreless and sad, first upon Agatha
face aud then upon mine; ''what are we
to do? The law allows US ten days no.
tice to evacuate these premises. and after
the ten days have expired where are we
to go? What is to become of us?'
Il will tell you. mother" said Agatha,
II will 90 out to work-and sister eau
paint aud you can sew and sell your mer-
chaadisc-we will get neat little cottage
and try to be as comfortable and happy as
NE possibly can. We have bad sorrow
but we also have faith in Gods Infinite
mercy and goodness.
A faint smile flashed over my poor
mothers grief stricken face as she met
Agstha's tender gaze, and she placed her
hand afectionately upon her shoulder as
if to express to her. without the necessity
of languag &c. how she depended upon her
for courage aud strength. l do not be-
lieve / eyer felt SO bitterly and keenly my
misfoltune at beng lame and hanch-
backed. as I. did that day.
Agatha was SO fair. and so hopeful and
strong. Why should she shrink from the
future? Sooner or later it must yield to
her happiness, success aud peace-for
she was beautiful aud graceful aud good
As for me, there remained nothing but
dependence and despair.
The tears spriGg to nay eyes from the
deep we'll Of bitterness in my breast. W.
we're sitting before the fire in the quaint
old sitting room where father had loved te
sit in his lifetime, and where it was oul

The first locomotive Sut ever saw, was
standing With steam up and nearly ready
to 90. making no noise save suppressed
humming from the safety valve. Sut had.
in his skeery. cautious way. elambered to
the top Of the tender to find out what
sort ov beast" it was, when the, engineer
slyly gave the whistle lever long pull
sha-a-y! SUIT lit twenty feet distant on a
pile Of cordwood, and after running until

Just at this moment, . negro eeame

joint Of pipe on the fue hole. and pots and
pans hanging all around. Sut took . look
first at the stove aud then at the locomo-
tive; . light broke out over his perplexi:-
ty, and he shouted to the engineer. =
"Oh. yes, l understands It al now; ths

custom to convene in the long winter
evenings to sew and read and chat oc'
cupied the large leather chair which was
ceded to father; it was placed at one
corner Of the hearth. and near it stood a
little table where the papers were placed
daily for his perusal.
| None of us had the heart to unfold q
single sheet for days. but now to hide my
intense emotion caught up one and held
it before my face. as if to screen, it from
the glow of the blazing fire. AS I took
it in my hand, my attention was attracted
by an advertisement, and scarce compre-
hending why l did so. l read aloud the
words that lay before me--seen utindis-
tinctly through the mist Of tears that veil
ed my sight:

miles from the city-on the c. & l.. h.

"Ab. mother" said Agatha. ''that is
the very place for you! Who keeps house
80 we'll And no doubt this Mr.. Grigsby
will pay you salary worthy your accept
ance suppose you apply for the situa.
ton ?"
My mother looked at me and then
glanced deprecatingly at Agatha, as if to
remind her of my helplessness and my un-
fortunate in6rmity.
Agatha smiled sweetly. Il did not for
get Martha. mother" she said softly. III
you take the place, Martha and l can room
together. aud she can draw and paint
while l teach or 90 out to service. Would
this not be we'll. Martha'" she asked, turn
ing her winning glance on me.
Satisfactory enough | replied in a
voice as unembarrassed as l could render
it; II am only glad that [ can add my
mite to the common store"
1t ended that way My mother called
on Mr.. Gilbert Grigsby who offered ber
so ample salary that she did not hesitate
to accept the situation. and after she went
off to the country place. Agatha succeed
