JVfr. Beriona Edtlytur: you publishcil in
yurc last Siittcrdaze paiier that Munday wan
f oin' to 1)0 a hie tide, ackordiu' to theni astrono
mers, I ackordiu' payed ntteushun to yurc ob
crvasbuns. The end way. ro tniu'vcal and so
nexpekted to me and to Mrs. IL, and Amandy
(my dorter) tbat I tbot ide rite about it.
The little rise we bad in the Skoolkill about a
treak b4 this prcdicksliuu of yures, and the
awful amount ov sufteriu'iind other things swept
away, persuaded mc it wood be wi.c to take time
by the fire-lock.
Thcre4 as the day set apart for another hi
tide by the astronymers (as b4 refurred to) I no
tified sich uv my nubors az didnt take yurc
paper (and scd they wodent cz long ez j'ou
made fun of fokes with them pieturs), and
begun to fix mi own family affarcs for a holesalc
txkursliun by water.
There wax much konsternation, specially
among them az hadent got in their garding
truck, and virions uv 11 on tin ha stax and strug
fclin gcesc, korn kribs, and defunct mules, with
a mixed pprinklin uv pumpkins and drounded
pigs haunted my pillo for sevcrall daze rtrcvus to
the time wen the grate wattcry phenoi-ama waz
to be opened.
Upon brenkin the snbjeck tu Mrs. R., she siul
clcntly rekolleclcd that she bad an unklo who
lived on the mountains away back in rcncil-Tania,-expressed
a decided aversion to bein
drowned uv acauawl, and suggested the pro
priety of makin a flyin visit to her dear but
long-forgotten rclativ.
Amandy, my romantic dorter, kwoted sometin
about the ''recks of empire and the krash uv
worlds," and retired to her chamber tu gaze at ,
the potograf of the young batblst who taut her
the "Aquatic Hip-flap in the surf, off the beach 1
at Long Branch." i
Kaiu (ml unpoetlck son) "Jlidu't keer a kouti- :
uental d eclmal" whether the tide wax hi or lo,
provided it didn't rain, for "he was going tu take '
fcnizo bwackhammer tu Aunty Iliggius' iuiltiu if '
Le swum the old mare every slep bi plain !" '
Abeduego (youngest and gushingust uv the
family) comprehended jist enulf uv the mcauiu
v hi tide to go into ckstaciee over the prospeck
nv sailin hiz mother's milk pans iu the back
yard.
Thus stood affairs In the Rick household on
the evenin uv the 17th. The skoohuas-tcr had
assured me that mornin that astrounymers never
made a mistake, and that be had koutrived a
no-seated balloon which he expeked tu "go
up" jist before hi water. I had read miself
that ''time and tide wait for no man," and this
wax no time tu wait for the tide: so callin mi
jmloinittyMe oneriry intu pla. f begun tu prepare
lor the second deluge in ManyyunU.

Sam Stubbs strolled slewly, survfying sun
set's ecreue Splendor. Sweet songsters softly
sung Silvery strains. Sombre shade solemnly
surrounded sylvan scenes; stillness ssemcd
6tepring stocking-footed skyward, stifling sound,
soothing sense, suggesting sentimont, stilling
strife, silencing sorrowing suffering. Sleep
seemed stealthily stealing sluggish sense. Sam
Stubbs seemed sad. Sam Stubbs sighed! So
simoom5, sweeping savagely southward, some
times sigh! 8am Stubbs sighed sonorously!
Still, Sam sauntered silently, seemingly, sub
dued, softened, scraphized! Sara's soft suscep
tibilities surrendered some time since (so sundry
sage spinsters 6ay). Scraphlua Stiggins saw
something seemed sufficiently sapient. So Sam
Stubbs surely sought Scraphiua Stiggins. Sam's
steps squashed snowdrops, sour sorrel; striped
snakes stung Sam's stout soles. Sparrows,
snugly settled, shrauk suspieiously, seeing Sam's
stupendous strides. Still Sam sauntered silently.
Suddenly somebody shrieked. "Samuel Stubbs"
Sam staggered, said "Scissors!" stoppod, sur
veyed surrounding space, spied Scraphiua Stig
gins sitting solus simpering sweetly. So Sam
stammered, "Servant, Scraphiua !" She seemed
sentimentally satisfied. So Sam, seeing Sera
phina's suavity, squatted, simply saying, "Slick
sunset." Seraphina said, "Splendid sweet."
Somehow speech seemed scarce, Sam's syntax
stopped. Seraphiua's silvery syllables scampered
shamefully; so, sitting silently, Sara stroked
Sam's shins. Seraphina smoothed Seraphina's
seven-shilling silk. "Stupid silence." Seraphina
sighed. So Sam sighed! Soon she 6pokc
solemnly, "Surely singleness seems sorrowful;
surely sentimental souls seek sympathy; surely,
Samuel, sadness sometimes steeps sympathetic
souls."
Sam shook sensibly; Sam's speech surely
stayed somewhere; Sam stuttered, sputtered,
Etanuncrcd. Sam said "Sho!" Shakespearian
shades ! sec Seraphina starting suddenly; stand
ing, scornfully scanning Sam's sprawling sym
metry. She satirically sibilated: "Stupid sim
pleton; shabby, sheep-stealing, sncak'iug snivel
ler! subservient subaltern! sooner shall Sera
phina Stiggins seek scanty subsistence scrubbing
sinks, sooner scour small-sized stoves, sooner
skin snakes, steal steamboats, swallow shin
soup, foouer sweep streets, sew shoes, split
sails, side saddles; sooner shingle shops, sell
shaving strops; sooner sooner soon so so ."
Seraphina stopped, snivelling scornfully. Some
single souls see some slight severity spriukling
Seraphina's speech. Such should survey so
lemnly Sam's sin. Sam said "Sho."
Since Sam's slip, seventeen summers saluted
submissive sublunariaus; snow, sleet, slush,
sorrow, sin severally saddened smiling souls'
sunshine. Sunbeams, summer showers, severally
streamed, sustaining sweetness, soothiug sad
ness, supporting sorrow. Sh! speak softly!
Sam Stubbs' sofa supports Scraphiua Stubbs!
She sits, softly smoothing Sam's supper (sent
stomaehward sometime since). Swift suppers
somcstimc sit severely. Sam's sat so! Seraphina
smoothed Sam's supper, sUepcd senna'! suggested
salts ! Soon Sam seemed sprighthcr, smilingly
said Sam's sweet spouse: "Surely seutiniental
souls seek sympathy."
Sam Stubbs simply said. "Sho!" X.
