Ut, I'm a mean, oowardly, cruol a recu!ar
tragodj uncle, in fact."
j'A.1Adear unol."al Milljr'of oourse wa
didnt know. And you were only in joke,
after all. ' ' '
"Well, my dear, I'm not so mire of that;
bat a ninu mayn't marry his grandmother,
You know; and I rather think there's a simi
lar foolifih prejudioe as rogaida nieces. So,
on the whole, perhaps it's just as well yon
uidn t say yes.
"I'm sure I heartily bog your pardon,
brother-in-law," said Mr. Todd. "You won't
bear malice for words said under a mistake,
I'm sure."
"Well, I'm not quite certain whether I will
or I won't," said Mr. Hawkins. "I shonld
like to punch that young rascal's head for
calling me an old humbug, but I'm afraid I
fchould got the worst of it. '
"I'm yery sorry, sir," began Charley.
"No, you're not, my dear bov; or if you
we, yoa need n't be," said Mr. Hawkins. "It
vas an old man's joke, and I rather think I
taw the fun of it better than you did."
"But I had always heard you were dead,
Hawkins," said Mr. Todd. "'Many a time my
poor wife used to talk and cry oyer her only
brother, who was thought to have been
drowned at sea."
VI ought to hay been, by rights," said
Uncle Tom. "I've been in three shipwrecks,
bat I was preserved, probably for a higher
and drier fate. I've been a digger, and a
storekeeper, and a good many other things
besides. I'll tell you all my adventures, one
of these days. And now I've made as much
aa I caie to make. Yes that twenty thousand
pounds is a fact. Miss Milly, and I've come to
Ln gland to enjoy myself with my nephews
and nieces. So you won't marry me, eh '"
Milly shook her head saucily.
4 'Well, then, as I've set my hoart on a
wedding, I suppose you must marry some
body else. I think I know somebody who'll
find that security, Mr. Charley, though you
did call mo a canting old humbug. No
thanks! don't like 'em; always makes me
feel as if I was being tickled and wasn't
allowed to laugh. Milly, little woman, if
you're very good, you and I will take a run
out of town the very first fine day, and see if
we can't find that same cottage we were talk
ing about small garden in front, and the
name of John Todd on the door, you know."
In spite of Uncle Tom's objection to thanks
thero was a simultaneous outburst of grateful
joy the overflow of happy hearts. John
Todd squeezed his brother-in-law's left hand,
while Charley Collins violently shook his
right, and Milly, with both arms round his
, zieck, kissed him repeatedly. Miss Tinnifer
wept so violently that her small pocket-handkerchief
looked as if it had been recently
washed, and not recently dried.
The excitement rather increased than
diminished in intensity, and Uncle Tom was
in a fair way to be literally smothered with
caresses, when the door suddenly opened and
Alias rinmters brother, in a white and pecu
liarly airy costume, stalked into the room.
The unfortunate man had waked from his
first sleep with an uneasy sense that the pro
mised pudding, with the hope of which he
had been beguiled to rest, had not been
duly furnished; and he had therefore risen
at once, without the formality of dressing
himself, to claim his due. There was an ex
clamation of astonishment followed by a shout
of inextinguishable laughter, and then Miss
Finnifer, with much presence of mind, seized
the table-cover, and hurriedly draping it
round the intruder, marched him back to bed.
For a little while longer the little parly sat
around the fire, talking of the hard times
East, and the pleasant times to come, and
earing the story of the tempest-tossed life,
come to an anchor at last. And then the
time for "good-by" oame, and as with loving
kisses and hearty hand-shakes, they said
"good night," the chimes from a neighbor
ing church tower rang out midnight, and
Christmas day was over. And Uncle Tom,
reverently doffing his hat, said:
"Thank God for a merry Christmas."
"Amen!" said Charley Collins.
"Amen!" said John Todd, "with all our
hearts, amen !"
Thank God for Christmas ! So say we all,
and God help him who cannot say Amen !
For peace and good-will, for the quiokened
pulse of charity, for quarrels reconciled and
love renewed, the golden gifts of Christmas,
God be thanked. Thanked, not alone with
oar lips, but with our hands and our hearts,
by spreading these golden gifts, that other
may thank Him too. None is so poor but that,
onoe a year at least, he may be a "rich uncle"
to somebody; none bo joyless but that he may
catch a reflected ray of happiness, by doing
something, be it ever so little, to make merry
Christmas in the heart of anether.
