THE OLD BRREAIT As we were phasing down Exchange Street, several rears ago, we stopped in front of an auction room to examine the various articles that were exposed to be sold under the hammer. We had been there bat a few minutes when we hear! a female yoice inquiring, “Is this bureau to be sold to-day ?” On losing up we perceived that this question bad been addressed to os bj a young lady, whose sad but. pleasant countenance struck us at once. Wq replied that all the articles spread ou the sidewalk would be disposed of to-day to the highest bidder. “ I should like this: bureau, if it goes low enpugh,” shs said, painting to an old feshioned article that/was standing among the other feumituce: ■’* but I never bought anything at auction'iu all' my life; and I see no women here- I dqnT know as it would be proper for me to hii” It would be perfectly proper,” we re marked; “but if yon wub it, 1 will tid off the bureau.” | ' “If yop wiU, sirj I jhall be greatly (ddigrd to you.’’ >, “How higli are you wiping to go?” “ I don’t know exptetly Aow tnucb it L<> worth, but if it seUslfbr three .or four dol lars you may buy it.”, “Shall I speak to a hand-eartman to leave It at your kowfe “No ar, I wHI call at noon and settle for it and take it awiy. lam very much obliged to you for your kindness.” Sp rajring the lady went;, away; leaving us to wonder who she was, and ot what qse the old bureau could be to her. We examined Jf, took out life drawers, but saw nothing remarkable about it. At eleven o’clodc, whop the auction com menced, we were present, and aftfr wait ing nearly: an hour; the .auctioneer re marked ;—-“ We will now fell this bureau. What wißypa give', me, gentlemen 1 One man | oferat two dolbirs, another three, and we bid . half a dollar more. Four dollors was bid—four and a half ■and five dollars- iVe were astonished that the old thing.fetould bring such a ! price. What should: we djo—see it sold land; disappoint tbe ladyl The thought i strode ns mat it have beloved to rame friend, and site wished to purchase it*on that account, and rather than dis appoint her, we resolved to bid a pain. The bureau ran up to ted dollars and we purchased it fiw half a dollar more. Cer tainly we should not have given four dol lars for it to tise ourselves. However, we bought it. and had it sent to our room, telling the auctioneer that if a lady should call for it, to inform her where it might be found. We examined it again, and began to regret our purchase, feeling al most certain that the young woman would not thank us for what we had done.; but we never mourn over a bad bargain.— Our philosophy will not permit us to do so. 8 00 12 00 5 00 A little after dusk, as we were sitting in our sanctum, the young lady came in, with an apology for intruding, and re marked, ** You bought me the bureau, so the auctioneer informed me.” “ Yes, I bought it at an extravagant price. I assure you.” “ What did you give?" •“ You astonish me. What can 1 do? 1 had no idea that it would bring over three or four dollars, and am not pre pared to pay for it to-night.” “ I suppose it was foolish in me to give so much for* it, but 1 presume you want it v<»ry much." “I did sir, and would not value paying double the amount for the bureau, if I were able, lather than not to have it." •‘So I apprehend. Perhaps it be longed to a friend of yours ?” “ Yes, sir, tliat bureau was once my mother’s”-—and I noticed a tear come in her eye, which she endeavored to conceal; “ but she is dead now, and I want to keep it in remembrance of her.” Thinking thandy might be poor, we told her that s,|m might tale the bureau that night if she wished, and pay us when she found it convenient. “ I am greatly obliged to you for your kindness, but would rather you should keep if until it is paid for." We urged her to lake it, but she re fused. saying; “ I will see what I can do. and call in a,day or r two and see you and, bidding us|»ood evening she left. There -is something very mysterious about this woman, thought we. It may be that she is poor, and perhaps in very destitute circumstances. ' But she showed an excellent heart, and the warmest at tachment to a deeeaa?d mother. Her edu cation must have been good, and she lias evidently seen better days. And.we though; the next time she called upon us, we would ascertain something more of her character and circumstances—perhaps her name—which we felt deeply anxious to learn. In a day or two the young lady called upon us again, and with tears jn her eyes remarked ; “1 do not know what you will think of mo, but all the money I have in the world is five dollars; this I have brought to you towards the bureau you were so kindias to purftase for me.”— bo saying she placed the money before me in silver.; “ I shall not take the money at present,” I remarked, “ 1 can do without it; and when you are able at some future time you may [>ay for it. She expressed l great deal of gratitude and said, ■“ I would rather you should take what I hare,” and nothing, that we could say would induce her to take the money again. ' “You appear to have seen some afflic tion,'’ we remarked as we saw the tears in her eves. , “ Not much sir, I must confess that I have not always been as poor as lam at present: for i have seen better days.— When my parents were living I never knew what it was to want fur anything. Now I cannot sav so.” “ How long have your parents been dead ?” ■ “ About six years since ihy lather died ; and it was four years - ago last Saturday since my mother died.” , At the mention of her mother’s r name, the tears mime to her eyes—a tender chord was touched—we saw & and made no more inquiries, when she took her leave. It was nearly six weeks before I saw the young lady again.' She then called upon us with the remainder of the money that we had paid for the bureau. We protested. against receiving it at that time, thinking it might have been inconvenient f.;r her to pay it. “I am under great obligations to you for your kindness,. Had it not been for you I should not have the bureau the only relic of my mother; for it was then impossible for hie to raise the money you so gener ously pai3. I shall never forget your kindness ” ; “Do yoii wish to take the bureau away?” s' •‘I have Spoken to a cartman who will call here in a short time, and have it re moved out of your way, for I suppose you will be glad of it.” *• Not at all. I am pleased that I was instrumental of a little service to you, and if yon ever need assistance I shall be ready to render it." “I thank yon, sir, with all-my heart.”. Altoona, pa., Tuesday, jult il ises “ Ten dollars and a half.” - [INDEPENDENT IN EVERTTIirXG.] | At this moment the man came for the | bureau, and bidding us good morping the | young lady left the room. Going, going—will you give but two dollars foe this excellent bureau?” ex claimed Mr. Barley, the auctioneer a year or two since, as we were passing down exchange street. “ Here Mr. C,” he said, turning ts us, “ buy this bureau ; it ■ is worth more for kindling wood tbAn it jis going for. Just look at it—going— | going—quick oryoulose it.” I Iwo dollars and fifty cents we bid as we saw it was the same bureau we had, bought several years before for ten and a half dollars, and it was . knocked otf to us. Hits is singular enough, thought we, as wc had the article carried to our room. Where is the young woman who formerly owned it I Who was she ? We made several inquiries, but could not ascertain who she was or what had become of her. This bureau had been curried-to the auction room by an indi vidual whom Mr. Barley never saw be fore, and all cue inquiries to ascertain what bevame of the young seemed fruitless. Several months passed by, and still we j heard nothing of the young lady, when | one day, not knowing but we might get i some clue of the former owner, we took lout all the drawers separately and ex j amined them. We saw no writing what-' I ever. In the back of the under drawer , we noticed that a small piece of pine had been inserted. It looked as if it hail j been to stop a defect. Prying it with a j knife it came out, when to our astonis- I ment we found several gold pieces to the ; value o: about $5O, besides a note for j $2,500, with interest, made payable to | Carah , when she should become of age. It was a witnessed note, and had been running ten years, signed by a weaMiy man whose "reputation fur honesty is not exceedingly goqd. Without men tioning to a single' individual what we discovered we immediately endeavored to find out who trarali she could lie found. We learned that a girl of this name tonnely lived with Capt. . anti did the work of the kitchen Ot him we could obtain but little in or malion. His wife reccoliected the girl. and spoke of her in the highest terms. Sfie believed she had married a mechanic? and reared form the city, but his name she could not reccollect. By- repeated inquiries, we ascertained that J-arah with her husband lived on a smalt farm on the road that leads to Saco. Taking on early opportunity, we started for the residence of the young woman.: After several in quiries on the road, we were directed to the bouse. It was a pleasant situation, a little from the road, while everything looked neat about the dwelling. As we drew up to the callage, who should come to the door but’ the very woman we had so long been anxious to find. She recognized us at once. “ Why, Mr. C : —, how glad I am to see you. Where in the world did you come Irom ? Walk in and take a seat.” Her husband was present—an intelli gent looking man —to: whom she presented us •“ I have often thought of you,” she said, “ and when in Portland have been tempted to call and see you : but although I have not called, be assured I Lave -not forgotten your kindness, and I never shall forget it.” “ But you seem happier than when I saw you last.” “Be assured, sir. I: am. My husband has hired this little farm, where we have resided for the ; last two years and we have a comfortable living, and we are as happy as we could wish. In the course of a few years, if we have our health and prosper, we are in hopes ' to ' purchase the farm.” “ What does the owner value it at?” “He values it at about $1,501. We bad to purchase a great many farming things, or we should have made a pay ment towards it..” ' “But what has become of your old bureau ?” • “I fear I shall never see it again,”, she said; and after a pause,, said—“l believe I have never told you bow 1 have been situated,” ! “You did”’ “When my mother died it was thought | she left some property in the hands of an | uncle of mine, that would come to ma j when I was of age ; but he said it was ; not the case. With him I resided fdr a ■ short time.” “ Was your uncle’s name Mr. ?” , said we, mentioning the individual who | had sinned the note in (our possession. “Yes sir—that was "his name. lie , was unkind to me—rinade me work, so 1 hard and was so cross that I left him, to i earn my living' by doing the work of a : kitchen girl. . One day I learned that he j was about to dispose of what little prop ; erty “mother left to pay an old debt of hers ; As soon as 1 found it correct, I immedi ■ ately went tp ‘the auction, and found it : too true. You know; about the bureau, ; f the only article of mother's propetry I 1 could porclwse— and, had it not been for your: kindness, it would with the test. The money I pai i was earned in the kitchen. As I fouhd it inCooven i mt to carry* it with mo I as£»d my aunt's permission to put it in her garret, which she, granted. On calling; for it when I was mar»ied I teamed (hat unde had dis posed of it yith some other things at auction. 1 would rather have lost a hun dred* dollars. Not that ! the piece pos- any real value, but it belonged to my dear beloved mother, (a tear came into the poor woman's eye, > and on that Account I did nut wish to part with it : Bat it was useless to speak to unde abbot it; he was entirety indifferent to me and what concerned me.” “ - “ Suppose that I; should tell you; that 1 Havei that bureau in my office.” “ Is it possible! You astonish me, Mr. C. Hare you indeed the old bureau. “ I have and what is better, I have someithing here for you”—taking out of my pocket-book and placing the note and gold mpon the table—“ this is yoinw.” “ Why, sir, you more and more astonish me/’ “ They are yours. After I became the owner of the bureau,! found this note and gold concealed in one of the drawers.— There are: nearly fifty dollars, and the note is against yonr uncle, for nearly three thousand dollars, every cent of which you .may recover. This astonished lady could not speak for some lime; but when she recovered fcom her surprise she could only express her gratitude in tears; nay, more she offered half the amount, but we merely told her that it pleased us to. have justjge done her and be instrumental in adding to the happiness of those we considered so worthy as herseft and husband. When we left we promised to call on her soon agdin, and in the meantime to make arrangements fqr to receive her just dues train her unworthy uncle. ’I he old man demurred a little at first: but when he found he could rob a poor orphan no longer, he paid the note with interest—begging os not to expose him. wa«. and where i-arah's husband purchased the farm on which he resided, stocking it well, and is now an independent fanner. Two hap pier is a difficulty to find than Surah ind her*husband. Maly prosperity attend them to the close of life. We often call at the house of oqr friend and spend there nw a happy hour. It was hut a week W two since we saw i heni as cheerful and contented is it is possible for mortals to be. We have heard of a very pretty little incident the other day. which we cannot help relating. A young lady from the North, it, seems, was wooed and won, by a youthful physician,, living in California. When the engagement was made, the doctor was |pch, having been very suc cessful at ban Francisco. It had: not ex isted! f * x months, however, when: by an unfortunate investment, he lost the entire •• heapA’__ 'ibis event came upon him. it should be added, just aa he was: making ready to borne and claim his bride. What does! he do ? Why, like an hohorable. chivalrous young fellow that he ia, lie sits down and writes the lady every particnla'* of tjbe unhappy tarn which had taken placb in his fortunes, assuring her that if the eSect produces'any change in Iter feel ing towards him, she is released from every promise she had made to him.— And] what does tie dear, good girl do? Why she takes a lump of pare gold, which her lover had sent her when in prosperity, as a keepsake, and having it manufactured into a ring, forwards it to him, with the following bible inscription, engraved in distinct characters on the outside: “ (Entreat me not to leave thee, or to returii from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I mil go : and where thooj lodgest, 1 will lodge; thy pople shall he my people, and thy God my God; where thou diest will I die, and tberewill ibe buried;- the Lord do so to me an I also, if aught but death part thee and me.” ' The lover idolized hissweetheart more than ever when -lie received , this precious evidence; of her devotion to hinvboth in stonp and in sunshine. We may add that fortune soon again smiled upon the young and ardent physician and that he sqbse quently returned to the North, to wed the sweet girl he loved, and who loved him [ with such an undying affection.— Nay. more, the happy bride aos bride groom P** 9 *! through our city, not long since, on their way to the home of lb“ latter in the golden Stat v Beider, t.iis is all {true.
