Hut we'll bring the roses back somehow yet J" : "I don't know how yvu are going to do it, Tom," sbe answered, sadly. "Whta I thiiik cf how affairs etaad with us all, there comes great knot k at my Lean ia the midst of my gladue?s nt having you back again. What a great Dig lellow you have grown!! can't help looking at you. i should never have known you but for your eyes ; and tbey are, as al ways, exactly like dear father's. You wiil bo tiie imoL'e of Lim when you are us old." "Au.'ia looks perhaps; but I am efruid iLdt's all 1 follow Lim in," an fcweted the brother. -I feel like a Lorriole brute aa I sit here, and re member the misery I caused the old chup. I cun see him sitting over thc:e where Geurge is as plainly ati, well ! it's of no use talk:og about it; but! euppose it it hadn't been f jr me he would have managed dif i,:tvDi!y wub tte money. Yes, I am the cdiite of the trouble all round. You would, no doubt, have been well . t IT but lor n.e." 'K'u"t s:iv so, Tom," chimed iu (eorre: ' it's bud luck, but we can't toll; you muht not accuse yourself of too much, lou and 1 must go ou woikiug Vird, that's all it cumes to." "Yes," slowly answered the burly sailur, after a pause ; ' but it is strange to thiuk that uoboJy has any idea ol what he did with all his precious saviLgs. l'ear heart! it's very cu rious." Then there was a silence for a long while, liut when the candles came tLe talk went oa again, rising at times iuto mt-rri:ueat, aud again laps ing to the sadder key, but ever hiug iu. of course, upoa the retura home, the 6 jveijtures abroad, and all that Lad happened uiiiiog these lon years. The t'hrintmas eve waned; little Lily wee: to bed ; aad, finally, bed titae c&mo for all. Alica and George both saw their brother up to the lit tle room, w hich, for many years past, Lad been ready for fcini. lie nsver seemed weary of gazing about him at the old familiar domestic objects the passages, the stairs, the rooms. Just as they were bidding "Good night." Tom turned to tis sister end said : "And the garden, Alice is that much the'same? All the queer gnarl ed apple-trees just as'hey were when 1 left .v" "Yes," she answered, "but I don't often go down there now; it has been sadly neglected of late years." "And the doll's nest?" went on the brother; "is that still in exist ence ?" "The what?" inquired George from the threshold of the room where he was standing. "The doll's nest," repeated Ton. "Do you mean to say that Alice nev er told you abont the doll's nest? Why we used to have rare fun there! We used to sit in the doll's nest for hours together when she and I were children didn't we Alice?" "Never heard of it ?" said George. "O, it was only a queer old hole in the largest apple tree," broke in Alice; "it made a rough sort of a seat, and Tom used to lift me up into it and put Lis arms round my waist, and bold me in alongside him, and we called it 'the doll's nest,' that's all. I have not given it a thought for years; but it is still there I have no doubt." "M'eU. I have often though of it," said Tom; "thought of it when I've been thousands ot miles away, the other side of the globe thought of it and dreamed of it frequently, and you and I sitting in it dear." "Well, I have never heard of it," repeated George ; "but good-night now, eld boy. I'm very glad you are back again, safe and sound once more." And not long after, everybody was fast asleep, and stillness reigned throughout the house. With Christmas morning the con versation seemed inclined to rise to the Lappy key. V. very thing favored a joyous tone cf talk ; the sun shown bright and clear, aad set the snow and tbe icicles sparkling like jewels. Little Lilian looked fresher and better, her mother said, than she had done fr weeks. She thought Ler uncle's return bad begun to act l:ke a tonic on the child. Alice htrself likewise seemed to have taken it dose of it, for there was a genuine happiness ia ber face to w hich it had long been a stranger, As to the sailor, he bad so brusned Liuiu lf up, and pulisbed Lis brown cheeks with soap and water, that he was hardly recognizable for the travel-stained wanderer of the evening before. George Wood try a alune had failed to lu'.iU this infection of beaming hoks. lie Lad a meditative, absent air about Lim, quite unusual, and ate Lis breakfast without seemioir to know what he was doing. To all inquiries as to what was tbe matter he answered : "Nothing." There was nothing the matter with him, not a bit of it; but it took him 6ome time even to reply thus mu:b, and the Etrangeness of his manner continued long after breakfast was finished, and all the way to church, and was. quits observable even in church ; and Alice went eo far as to nuflgo her brother several times dur- iuc Bt-r ice, as mucn as to say. "Do you see how stranre he is still ?" And Tom would respond by rais ing his eyebrows; an1 the child was caught by them both watching ber father, and wondering what it could all tiean. For let it be clearly un derstood there vas no expression cf unbappicsss on his face ; on the con trary, there was almost a smile play ing over it at times, as though he w ere thinking about something not altogether unpleasant that te could not forget. When church was over, and tbe party were rtturning through the crip clear air, everybody now a little silent under the influence of George's j strange manner, be himself suddeolj ! stopped in the middle of the qaiet i lane which wm the short cat home. ' He planted big umbrella firmlj down ' in front of him, as if to gire addition j al force to eomethinjf he was evident I It about to say, and then, lookiog ' wita the niott erio comic expreiiioa pofiljl, firs', at bis wife on the left j band, and then a; her brother, who . .j,-, .6- . "I must tell you- can't keep it any longer. ou will both laugh at; me, peruape, uu i irci intiucu i m w r i : i : j - : lugn at it myself, ana yet it is no i . t - c - t a i l laogningmauer. diuwi luougut, 1 would not ten you; oui i canmu shake it off, and ei I must out with t ineiaci is, i saw piuiin; "Saw srrandfather ! What do you mean !" from both sides. "What I say. I saw grandfather, old Mr. Matthew Hickman, as plain ly as I ever saw t.im in my life." "Why, you are dreaming, George, ' said bis wife. "No, you were dreaming," cried Tom. "Well, yoo may choose to say so, and to think bo," went on the speak er, "but there he was, standing at the loot of our bed ; and if I was dream ing why, then, all life's a dream, for I never saw anything more real since I was born." George was so earnest in bis as sertion that tbe listeners were dis tinctly impressed. At least Tom was, tor his sister soon began to laugh; butthebrother.cn the con trary, grew graver and graver, and after fixing his eyes on the ground for a minute, looked up inquiringly, saying : "Did be speak ?" "Yes," answered George, serious ly ; "and that's what seems so con vincing, if I had only seen him I might have thought it a dream ; but I heard him ss plainly as I saw Lim." ,Wbatdid he SBy?" asked tbe sailor, solemnly. "Why," went on George, Wood wvn "be said these words, though wLat on earth they a.cautl can't tell, but he said distinctly : "SLoat an arrow from tbe doll's nest." Tom, giving a perceptible start, looked at bis sister; she was grave now, ana returned his look. Then for a moment they both seemed to be on tbe same track of thought, and tbe family likeness, al ways strong between them, appeared stronger than ever, while the expres sion in each of their faces was iden tical. "How odd ?'' at length they both exclaimed in a breath. Alice con tinued : "Don't you remember, Tom, we used to shoot with our bows and ar rows down among the old apple and pear fees ?" "Of course I do," was tbe answer; "have I ever forgotten those days ? And what's more, don't you remem ber why we once shot an arrow from the doll's nest itsell t" Alice dropped ber eyes in thought for a second, and said : "To be sure; when we hid our money-box." Her brother nodded. "Yes, and father saw us, and laugbed at our queer pranks." Then there was another pause, when George, moving on down the lane, said : "Well, what has all this got to do with my dream, if yoo choose to call it a dream ?" But be received no answer.for sev eral moments, during which Tom was murmuring to himself again and again, as if in deep cogitation : "Can it be possible ? can it be pos sible 1" "Can what be possible ?" ho ,was asked. "Just this,'' be eaid; "We had a common money-box, Alice and I, and we used to bide it down at tbe bot tom of the orchard, in the thickest corner ot .the underwood buried it in fact ; and we decided on tbe place we would bide it in first of all by shooting an arrow as we sat one day in tbe 'doll's nest,' and tbe spot where tbe arrow fell was to be the spot where we were to bury our box. Then, in order to Gad it again (be cause we never disturbed it till we had something to pnt into it, and so it was sometimes left tor a wees or two together,) I, with my sailor-like torn of mind, took the bearings: that is, we were to get tbe old stack of twisted chimneys on tbe cottage ex actly on a line with tbe doll's nest, and then twenty yards straight away on that line, down toward the orch ard wall, was tbe exact spot where we should find the box. Why, Alice, you must remember all this surely," urged tbe speaker warmly. "Certainly," she answered ; it all comes back to me, now yoa speak of it, vividly enongb ; still, I don't see what it has to do with George's dream." "No, nor I," echoed the astonished husband. "Be patient, and I'll tell yon," went on Tom, "what I think it has got to do with it. Life at sea may make people superstitious. They say that sailors are so ; perhaps I am. I have dreamed and seen many queer things in my time not always quite easy to make out ; bnt let that pass ; what occurs to me now is simply this. As I said, father knew of and saw our dodge about tbe money-box, and it may be just possible tbat in his latter davs, when be cot a little queer and cranky, as we know be did, and wno bis views about prop erty ana prooaie amies and so on, that he may have remembered hat we used to do, and have done e uie thioif himself of the same kind. It was ibis be was going to refer to perhaps when be began to write the words, 'That my children only may understand bow tbe main bn ' I say it is just possible odd men do odd things: who would ever have thought of his having 4,000 of gold stowed away just coder his bed head f " Tom's reasoning so excited him tbat be stopped suddenly, looking straight into space, saying: "I suppose it bas never entered yonr beads to have a look ronnd about tbe garden, to see if there were any signs of a biding placer" Of course it bad never entered either of their heads, and they said 80. "Tben it baa mine," said Tom ; "and what's more, I'll have a look before I am an hour older. Dear heart, if I should be right after all ! Come along." Tbey bad reached by this time tbe end of tbe lane wbtre it pasted round tbe lower part of tbe old moss grown wall surrounding tbe cottage and grounds. At one of the angles there was a heavy nailed door. "Can't we get in here ?" said Tom, giving it a poke impatiently with bis stick. O, dear, no ; it hadn't been opened for years: the path on tbe other side bad been long disused and overgrown with bushes" "So much tbe better," continued the sailor : "the less chance of tbe place having been disturbed." Then tbe three, with Lilian follow. Ing, all now quite excited by Tom's idea, s?on found tbeir way to tbe in ner side of tbe garden wall through tbe ivied arch at tbe front entrance. Tbe seaman, with bis experienced eye, first ot all took a general sur vey. Tben, pushing his way through the taagled busbes, scattering the snow, now softened by tbe warm 6un, in showers right aod left, baited beneath a wide-spreading gnarled apple tree. "There's the doll's nest," be ex claimed, pointing op to a great bulg ing bjle or knot wherp two large branches forked ; "I feel inclined to swing myself op into it as I used, only 1'm'afraid it wouldn't bear me now. Yes, there it is. and now I've got it in a line with the chimneys, jast as in the i!d days. Tben twen ty long strides will bring me down close under tbe wall ab ! But this brushwood ia thicker than it used to be," he continued, as he tramped heavily through the neglected under growth, Lis compauioas watching Lim from the upper slope by tbe strip oi kitchen-garden. lie bas reached to within a yard of the wall, and be stands peering lor a while ia among tbe densest part of tbe tangle. Lifting a branch there with his stick, and putting two or three aside here with bis bands, he makes anoth er step forward, peers down once or twice again, throws up bis arm as if in signal to those behind, and then with a snout plunges, as it seems, headlong into tbe bushes, and all but disappears. George gets down to him in a minute or two, and by tbe time Alice has managed, with as tounding disregard ot flounces, and tbe effect ot wet and thorns upon them, to come up to tbe pioneers, she sees them engaged in clearing aside with feet and hands a mass of accum ulated rubbish fallen leaves, earth nd underwood. Tbe enow bas been very light, and has not penetrated far below the upper twigs. "A spade, a ppade," calls out Tom, "or a pick of some sort ! ' "Lilian, go to the tool-house," said her father. And tbe child, who is only half way down tbe slope, runs back, and soon reappears, struggling with a spade. Alice relieves tbe little bands of their unwieldy burden, and takes it down to Tom, sending tbe child back to the bouse for fear of ber . taking cold. t ive minutes pass, and tbe sailor, by hacking at tbe bushes and delving into tho earth, has laid bare tbe top of a qu?er-looking, half-bricked, half- tiled sort of structure, lie lifts away some of the tiles with which a por tion of it is covered, acd discloses tbe upper end of a large leathern sack, all mouldy and begrimed, hav ing a kind of brass binding and hasp fastened by a rusty padlock. With low-mutterea exclamatious from Tom, and much gasping and puffing from George, by degrees a regular clearance is made, and there lies expoeed to view the whole ot au enormous sack, nearly five feet long and three feet wide! A sharp knife flies out from the sailor's pocket, the leather is ripped open, and the sack isdiscoveredto.be crammed with a succession of can vass bags. With some difficulty, for it is very heavy, Tom, having hand ed the spade to George, ia the first to litt one of these out. It is hrmly tied at tbe mouth with strong string and seal, and bas a parchment label, with tbe sum of i. 1,000 in hgures marked upon it Again tbe knite is used with more impatience than m WW a ever ; and lorn, dipping nis nana ia, produces a dozen or more bright sovereigns ! "Hurrah, Ilurrah! Ilere it ia, tben " cries Tom "tbo main bulk of my property hidden, buried, after the fashion of our old money-box. And here it bas lain certainly for five, and who can say for bow many more years. ? Bag by bag is removed from tbe leathern sack ; the sample which bas been opened explaining what they each are filled witb. Tnere tbey are forty of them, all alike, tied and labeled alike; each weighing about seventeen pounds ; a solid mass of some six hundred weight of gold! "Total," says George, with a face tious assumption of the banker's air, when, with much labor and hurrying to and fro, everything has been con veyed very quietly and eecretly into the bouse, "40,000 in gold !"" The surprise, the excitement, and the general commotion which went on while these facts were being ar rived at, no words can describe. However, there was Matthew Rick man's accumulated wealth at last, standing in forty bags upon tbe table and floor in the little parlor. But how his beirs and executors behaved, and what they said, must, in detail, be left to the imagination. Tbey walked around it, and felt, moved first one bag and then another to try it they were all tie same weight. Then they counted a few sovereigns from the bag that bad been opened, and then put them in again ; aud tbe whole time they were talking, every one of them, all at once and not a rtoul listening. They exclaimed, they wondered, tbey laugbed, and, of course, Alice cried, and Lilian fol lowed suit. And it is quite impossi ble to say how long this sort of thing went on, for everything tbey did they did fifty times, and everything tbey said tbey said at least a hun dred times over and over again, and the performance might bave lasted till "crack of doom," but for tbe clos ing in of tbe short Christmas Day. This seemed to suggest a practical remark to George, and to which at length the rest seemed inclined to listen. "It is all very well," be cried, "but we can't dine off gold, at least not at present, and I'm getting hungry." Then it suddenly occurred to them all tbat tbey were hungry ; and then the good oid-tasmoned general serv ant, who had been looking in from time to time at tbe parlor-door, and who bad not yet quite mastered what bad happened, was told to bring dinner, bo, finally, tbe treasure was stowed away in a corner, jast, Tom said, as if it bad been so many bags or saw-dust, such as be used to have in his toy miller's cart, and which he always stabled in tbe 6elf-same corner. While tho cloth waa being Iaii tbe whole party lookedjoot of the win dow, apparently entirely absorbed by tbeir own thoughts. After a long silence, Tom said, as be gazed ab sently in the direction of tbe little , summer-house. "That's where he got them.': "Got what ?" inquired George. "Tbe materials to make bis strong room witb. As I looked through the bushes just now I perceived some remnants of old tiles, and I saw at a glance they were tbe same sort as those in tbat patch in the roof of tbe summer house. Tbey would not have suggested anything in them selves ; bat seeing them where I did, wiin wnat i naa in my mind, they , confirmed my suspicion, and tbe Erst kick or two I gave to the earth set tled the question." "Why tf coarse," exclaimed George; "tbe old gentleman bad tte roof mended while we were away tbat year, not a month before be died, and no doubt he secreted the work men's materials for this purpose." "Only fancy !" cried Alice ; "and tbe sack- where did be get the sack, do yon think ?" "Ob, simply bad it made years ago, no doubt, when this idea firtt possessed him," waa Tom's rejoin der. "Well, G..d blefs bim," said Alice; "he never meant tbat we should bave so much trouble about it all, poor father! Gcd bless bim, 1 say again." And tbey M answered, "Amen.'' Presently after this Christmas feast was served, and we may be pretty sure that there was not a mer rier or happier Christmas dinner party throughout tbo length and breadth of the land to be fjund that day. There w as no melancholy tone in tbe talk no ; it was a!! in the bright, big'u, happy key, "And why not ?" sked George "If grandfather had not buried tbe money in the orchard, why, I might bave buried it in the copper mice who knows? No, it is all for the best, depend upon it: and I call it a wonderful story of Christmas luck. Tom will Lave half, and Alice w ill bave half twenty thousand pounds apiece and we will invent tbe wbo!e in the Three Per Cents. That will be enough fur us won't it? Y'es, wonderful luck," be continued ; "only I can't make out about my dream, for it must bave been a dream, after all ; it could not bave been anything else." "Ab, so we may say," broke in Tom solemnly, "aad so most people would say ; and tbey would tell you tbat it was my talking about 'the doll's nest' jubt before we went to bed tbat started tbe dream in your head, George; but I'm not for having every thing cut and dried and explained in this matter-of-fact sort of fashion. I say I bave seen enough to know tbat it can t be done ; things happen in this world that balTl? the wisest that is, if those can be counted the wisest who are not inclined sometimes to accept mysterious dispensations as the ruling of a higher power than man's." Just for t to or three minutes'every- bodv looked grave ; but after that they soon recovered, and tbe merry making was resumed witheut one jot of alloy resumed and kept up until a ouita absurdly late hour for the in habitants of the little quiet home up on the Highgate slope.
