UNCLE JOSHUA'S ADVICE,

Reuben Brown was in love with
black eyed Kite Perkins-there is
no doubt about il. /.
kittie was the prettiest and at
the same timethe most coquettish
girl in Swanto, and, woman.like,
was playing "tast and leosen with
poor Reuben. NH ~
Reuben had never openly avow.
ed,. his affection, though it was
rapidly becoming "soulfully in.
tense when, after o particularly
exasperating interview with Kittie,
he resolved to hy bare his heart
to his oM Uncle Joshua, aud seek
the lattel's advice.
| Uncle Joshua was, in fact, his
nearest relative, and lived only u
shoh distance trop where Reuben
was employed. Reuben had done
many little kiudnesses for the old
ulall-who, in return, felt almost a
fathers interest, In his welfare. aud
-happiness +; so Reuben felt, when
he went to consult him concerning
his tendresse, that bis advice,
would, though coming FROM one
who might be supposed to have
forgottenall about tho gentle pas
sion, he sincere and thoughtful.
With this conclusion, Reuben,
with avery "heart huugryn feeling
the. immediate result of the above
mentioned interview with Kittie--
wended his way slowly up to the
little red house where the old man
lived. The last faint traces of the
suns glory, were. rapidly fading
away In the horizon, the bright
stars were just commencing to
twinkle merrily, and all the air
held "a. solemn stillness,r ss il
waiting for, night TO draw more
closely "her sable mantle"
At such times, If ever, the hu,
man heart turns to thoughts of
love: and Reuben's, already turn.
ed IN that direction, ,swas, actually
filed to ovehowing with the gentle
emotion Could he have done
SO, he WOULD without doubt, have
woven the most "woeful ballads
to the fair Kittie's eyebrows-but
he. was no poet SO he simply
yearned. ~.
AS Reuben came up to the. house
he found Uncle Josh, as he usually
called him., seated Oh the stoop.
His chair was tilted. back; his ven.
erable head tringed with gray
seanty locks aud barred to the eye,
ming breeze; and, like the ill.fated
skipper. Of Hesperus, 'his pipe was
