This is how it happened. I came homo to dinner as usual, and had scarcely readied the dinlDK-room Leforo I becuiiio aware of some tnrtliii!; innovations, such as extra smiles and honeyed accents, and so forth-uot that I hadn't seen anythinir of the kind in our home before, but it was unusual for Molly to bring such things ut about dinner time; o I said to myself, " Keep quiet, Silver-jingle, and wait for develop ments." , "Jiugle, have you noticed lately how pale WilJielooke ?" I hadu"t noticed lately. 4 ; "I lcav you don't look at him with the eyes of love, or you would." I glanced over at Lis crib with the eyes of love, and couldn't distin ctly ecc any pale in that face. 1 must say, for a sick child, he had the must robust voice and the healthiest appetite I ever knew. "Why, Jingle, he has scarcely eaten anything to-day." "Well, Molly. I don't well sec how he could, after all the candy, green apples, and other cholera mixtures you crammed him with yester day." At this point there were signs of a change of weather. "Jingle, Jingle, the child is not well. How can you spenk so of the darling, and to nie, too ? Here have I been really worshipping your very image in your child, and you so unkind." "Molly, as a good Christian woman, give np worshipping images, and give me auoiher cup of tea." The tea didn't come, but the tears did. Mrs. Silverjingle has a very valuable water power. If I ever conclude to dispose of her, I must not forget to mention it; I believe it would turn a mill; I know it has turned a good many mills out of me, to say nothing of dollars and cents. Only the other day she told me I had no tenee left; no wonder. Of course I could remain unmoved no longer, and after a little while it showed signs of clear ing. "Jingle, that child needs salt air!" "Well, if you think he will keep any better through this warm weather lor being salted, all right.'' "I think it actually necessary to his existence to go somewhere, and Long Branch, I think, will do." "Molly, I don t thiuk Long Branch a very de niable place for a young gentleman to spend his second summer, but if actually necessary to Lis existence, we will go." "And, Jingle, I feel so poorly myself, I thiuk we ought to take a nurse along to take care of Lim." "Well, if actually necessary to his existence, do so." "And, Jingle, as your wife, I would be ashamed to go with such a mall wardrobe." "Well, if actually necessary to the child's ex istence, get what you please." With this all was bright again: the storm had passed, aud all was smiles and gentle calm the sun burst out most beautifully, and just then our son burst out most beautifully: the sick child was crying for another green apple. "Oh, Jingle," as I arose to go, "you always were such a dear fellow !" "Molly, you are becoming dearer every day ! with your dresses and fixings and so lorth," I added. Aud that was the way It came about. The day came, and we went. We got there. I've often wished we never had. Just as we were getting tired out aud thlnklxg of returning, we got a room. Sent Molly up stairs while I stepped in to the bar to get a julep to wash off the dust; at the same time couldn't help wondering Low the feminities got rid of the dust without juleps. Then I went up stairs and found Molly in the midst of her lamentations: "Jingle, why didn't you get a room? I don't want to deep in a closet. Aud those wretched men have left our trunk outcide." The truth was, the trunk was so big It wouldn't iro thronnh the door, aud If It had, I don't kuow where wo would Lave found room to put it: we certainly would Lave Lad to 6tand on it while we dressed. "Never mind, Moll'," pacifying her, "it is good you brought your trunk, for if the room proves too smalt wiiuo or one oi us can clccp in Ui trunk." WUlie was tlie sick child., ill UUi-s- ML Wo got fixed Aomchow at last, and went down to supper. Molly noticed at once that all the dishes were not piled up in bulk in fronti of us, and thought the place must be conducted on the honiu'opathie system: consequently, we didn't have much trouble getting through nipper. Believing in the "Testimony of the Rocks." I made a different arrangement before breakfast. For a certain pecuninry consideration I was en abled to arrange with a benevolent and intelli gent contraband to have a smell at the best dishes; for a larger consideration, a long look; and for still more, u chance to seize on the plates before they were hurried away again. Next morning we looked about for acquaint nccs, and found among our fellow-sufferers some we Lad met before. I met JohnsoYi, who Lad been dow n a week, on the pia.za. and the first thing he told tiuj was that he "felt like a new man." 1 had presence of mind to make a note mentally to be very careful not to tell Johnson that I felt "like a new man," for fear he tnlght not think r was the same old man he had owed ten dollars tor the last year; besides, he might fancy he had a new man to borrow another ten from. A feminine of very undecided age. but very decided features, ol genu old maid, had tacked on to Molly while 1 was away. Molly had met her at a sew ing society in the city. When 1 first saw Ler in bathing, I could only imagine a mermaid drcxcd for croquet, but before we left Long Branch Aw had taught me this useful lesson never to judge by appearances: she proved a diamond of the first water. Well. Aw made us acquainted with several others, and w e soon edged into a set of a week's etauding. Next day our set went fishing: here were nine ladies and three gentlemen. We caught one twelfth of a fish apiece; the ladies would sing, which, of coui tc. is a very good plan when you go fishing. Some one proposed throwing our one fish over to lighten the boat; the old maid thought it was light enough already. (I had noticed she hadn't appeared delighted with the singing.) We at last took a vote; there were six for and six against throwing over, w hen the fish relieved us of further responsibility by giving the casting vote; it wriggled off the hook, and cast itself into the sea. Some one proposed going farther up, but the boatmen said they "didn't think it was iiitcas good fishing there;" so we didn't go: riot but what we didn't get plenty of bites; we each had a small bite of lunch; I counted twenty mosquito bites; and as I noticed one of the boatmen scratching his head frequently, I have always suspected he had a bite that he told us nothing about. So one day passed, aud I couldn't help saying to Mollvwhen we got into our room, '"If this be pleasure, make the most of it." But the troubles of the day retired as the troubles of the night came on, until we lost them all in gentle sleep, except as occasionally ye gentle bed-bug or playful mosquito would re call us from our dreams to mother earth. The next few days we had nothing but rain, so wc made up our minds to stay inside the hotel. We found one of the chief topics of con versation to be what we should eat. I was sur prised to see some who knew so little about good eating at home, know so much about it nway. Some were very much dissatisfied. One said she liked lamb and peas, hut didn't like the peas to he pods and the lamb ram; others made objection to the butter, both as to quantity and juality; while one exasperated one declared that the reputation of the house aloue forbade his saying that the mutton pies were "31ack and Tan," but the reputation of the house couldn t make tLem digestible or even palatable. The fish and oysters were good, but our set voted that it would have cost more to have them bad. We had chickens of all ages, but young; they were excellent as an exercise for weak teeth. I found out that it was chiefly the hotels that had chickens; some of the regular inhabitants, it is true, raised them, but they raised them; chiefly between 1 and 5 A. M. As a natural consequence the remaining inhabitants raised bull-dogs, making a night ramble, except on the beach, attended with its little difllculties. So with cheerful conversation, while wc were not eating the criticized articles, we beguiled the weary hours. For Molly's sake I tried to look pleased, but would have found it comparatively agreeable to have retired to some lone spot and taken a good old-fashioned emetic. The rainy days gave a good chance for music. Well, I can't conscientiously say we Lad much music, but wc made much strange noise in music's name. There were unite a number who delighted in the compositions of the old mas ters, the old masters of negro minstrelsy such as "Shocko Hill gals, ain't you coming out to night?" while others committed the most in human butchery of old operatic favorites; and the piano itself must, I thiuk. have been origi nally purchased to clear the house of rats. Next night we had a hop; and, by-the-by, the amusements are peculiar to the place. Most of the folks seemed to have put their piety "out" till they went home again. Some who at home would open their eye in holy horror at the men tion of some things, open theiu In delight at a tableau, if It is Episcopal, swing the light fan tastic in a Union hop, play a little Reformed game of billiards; and there is no end of im mersed Baptist and blue Presbyterians. Others leave all church behind and take all state there. There was a large supply of shoddy at the hop shoddy faces, shoddy manners, shoddy grammar. While Molly was dilating to one of them on the beauties of Niagara (which, by-the- by, she bad uever seen), she replied In winning pfintg. "Yes, I have hum tell of that tafore." T was disgusted with one of them in espoeial. Sneaking t- Molly, ehe Bald, "Willie Is the very nii tiire of bin pa. 1 had overneard her a short M - time before call him "the ugliest brat ehe cvor Saw. The Hop came to an end, and we came to the conclusion that there was a good deal of scan dal brewed out of these summer hops. ', Wo were again favored with a mosquito sere nade; but at last got asleep, with a confused idea that everything there was dear, and the mosqui toes could only be reasonably supposed to put us in their bills. Next day was clear, so our set took a ride to the Beat h to look for diamonds. I saw one of the young gentlemen constantly looking in one of the young ladies' eyes, 1 suppose for dia monds; and he found them there certainly, but it was a pity to sec them in such a setting of brnss. Well. e didn't get any diamonds, but did get tired, and had to ride home through a large arm v of mosquitoes. The chief produc tions of the place seem to be mosquitoes and sand; consequently there arc a great many bars. The ladies take their chocolate under theirs, and the gentlemen take their whisky over theirs. There is a very large number of professional men practising at the Bar. Every pleasant morning our nurse wanted to take Willie to the bench to see the fiddlers; so I got the idea I would follow one morning, and se the fiddlers too. Found it well I had, for there was Willie with feet and stockings wet through, while the nurse was some distance up the bcat'h, talking to a two-legged fiddler of one of the hotel bands. We discharged the nurse at once, and couldn't get another; aud so, by way of pleasing variety, Molly had to play nurse herself without wages. Two days after the effects of the wet feet showed themselves; Willie was sick. Wc got the best doctor we could, but if we had been home I wouldn't have had him to doctor a sick cat. unlc:8 1 had wanted it to die; but unfortunately we were not at home, and a long experi ence of bachelor-boarding had taught me never to refuse the best that was to be had, even if it was horse. On this principle we got this doctor. Willie was very siek for a whole week, and all this time the hops w ere hopped, the piano jan gled, rides ridden, fishes fished, and not one of "our set" came near the room to ask after the now really siek child: but it was just here that the pure gold of the old maid's character struck out. We found her real value when she was wanted: found there were, gems that shone more alone brilliantly in ciunc; she dark staid places, and She nursed and helped, until the roses bloomed and the bright eyes sparkled again. Thanks to a good constitution, the doctor didn't kill him; but his bill was so much the more, as he had to make up for the loss of the undertaker's commission. As soon as Willie was well enough, wc came home again, and that very night, as I walked into our old sitting-rooui, I said to Molly, really forgot to engage our room for next sum mer." "Jingle," said she, "our home seems like a perfect Heaven, and the other place a per fect" "A perfect w hat, Molly ?" "If thou hast no other name to know thee by. let's call thee Long Branch." We had gone to Long Branch for our health It took us a month after wc got back to recover from the effects, and I have only to add: Ye of the gum-elastic imagination, who have good homes, aud will leave them to roost in nine-by-twelve rooms, aud because it's fashion thinks it's fun, go to Long Branch. Ye who have never yet come to a realizing sense of th e private sen timents of a boiling lobster, go to Long Braueh. Ye who have good constitutions, and think you can stand an average amount f purgatory, go to Long Branch, and try i t. LOOKING CLASSES, ETO. E STABLiISHED 179 5. A. S.
