lead to ANYTHING but the utmost want
and misery. To think of such It hand
some and loving couple as they were
!, squatting on this miserable plot of ire
claimabe momtain-side I could not
bear to think Of it, 50 [ resolved, if
could, to save them from so unworthy n
fate
We'll, Mary. I have heard all You have
to say, and I would gladly do any
thing in my power to serve you and
Eugene, but I cannot bear the
thought of a handsome girl like you, and
a fine manly boy like him, settling down
for life on this miserable patch on the
side of a barren mountain. I am think
ing it would he far better to try your for
tune in America together, and so out
like the other emigrants, so many of
whom were pressing to get their names
down to-day"
Mary was silent for little. AT last
she said:
''Well, your honor, I often thought it
would be better, sure enough, to try our
fourtune in America, than to marry and
settle on that small patch of barren land,
where my little place is; but I couldn't
think of going out on charity as a
pauper."
81 understand your scruples," re-
| piled, $50 I will propose another plan.
What do you think if Eugene were to go
out tirst-iust for one year-and see
| whether the country would suit you and
! him? Let him return at the end of the
year; and if he does not like America,
then I Will put his name in the books as
! tenant for your own little place, or prob
ably 1 shall be able to give you and him
a larger and better farm by that time"
81 would be lOath to part with him
for a whole year, said Mary looking low
ingly upon the bashfuI Eugene; "but
still I think it might be the best way
after all; for no doubt it is a poor place
to settle on. But Eugene has no money
to go out with, and [ have little or none
to help him, and he couldn't go without
| that"
He shall not fail for want of funds;
I will lend him the money for his voyage.
If he return rich, he will repay me; if
not why it can't be helped"
Your honor Is very good fePlled
sne' loohn8 morrl1'uIy at Eugene; ,'o"t
what Will I do without him ? and where
will go while he Is away%
"You can stay at mothers, dear, while
[ am away, broke in Eugene, who
seemed suddenly to awake to an energy
he had not before exhibited. "You well
know she always loved yOu as daughter,
and she will care for you for my sake as
well as for your own"
II believe your honor's right" said
Mary, turning to me; ''Iet HIM go and
try his fortune for one wear. But mind,
she added, as she looked toward the lad,
''mind, Eugene, you must swear to me
ON the Book You viii come hack-rich or
poor, don't care which-witIGn one

T7,,aona Who seemed suddenly TO find
his tongue and all his other energies at
the prospect OF such an opening.
"Aud will your honor promise on the
word Of a gentleman, to give us back the
little place, OF get Us a better one when
he returns, if he won't take me out with
him again ?" asked Mary with an appeal
ing look.
