adrift down the river.l This we se
cured in a place that was not much
frequented, and then set to work to
lay in a stock of provisions,"&c., for
the voyage. .
' , ./Ilen's father was a butcher ; mine
was a grocer, nett alsfr :sold bread,
fresh, every morning. Hen was, to
furnish the meakbologna satisage,and

bread, tobacco and cigars; each one
to take a blanket and such other bed
clothing as he could geti. How we
worked and watched as we transferred
daily some part of the i t i s - intehts of our
fathers' stores to our boat.
Did you ever go to bed on Christmas
eve when a boy, and dud yourstock

mantel so confidently, empty in the
morning? If so, you can in part up
predate our. feelings when we found
one morning, on going 'to the river,
that it had raised considerable in the
night, and swept our !precious boat
and contents away, and left not a ves

there.'
There we stood, looking first down
the river then ;Wench i!ther. -
'What shall we dO,' atMI.
'Do!' said Hen; 'Why s we'll go

'Well, I'm afraid he'll . be sorry,'
with an accent on the afraid that made
it sound singularly like hope.
'Will they live at home with the

''pose that would be quite grand
enough to snit Lan 's idees.'
'They're goin' to fix the house up
some, I. believe. The barns are good,
and it's nice land for tobacco.'
Out in the other room, where the
girls were concocting calla) dresses
for the missionary's children, the
subject raged with even greater vir
ulence, as might have been expa:ted,
considering that Lance had been a
general favorite, and in days of his
freedom had roamed from flower to
flower, after the usual butterfly fash
ion of young bachelors. They pitied
hinqthey pitied her. They wonder
ed at him; they wondered at her.
Poverty and sickness, ruin and dis
aster, were the mildest of their pre
dictions for this unfortunate couple.
Equal consternation prevailed in
Kuipsic village, where it was rum
ored that Laura Bri , lges was deliber
ately determined to marry a farmer.
No engagement had created such a
commotion since the next to. thalast
new minister had married Sue Syl
labub. Everybody dressed uo and
called on every one else to talk It
over. ,

Simpson of Mrs. Judge Jewett, in

And. Mrs. Jewet shuddered at the
dreadful picture of imagination thus
presented of a farmer's life.
'Oh, It's truly dreadful!' said Mrs
General Simpson.
'She cannot endure it,' said Mrs.
Jewett. •
She; won't live long,' said Mrs.
Slinpson.
Maintime the victims 'unconscious
of their doom,' were Jogging along In
a-state ofperfeet;happine% and infat

the Jack Son farm to inspect their fu

not yet turned green. People who
met on the street added 'disagreeable

energy of her chimeter rose up strong
in her to meet Ili° enaergency.--Old

used to say, Laury's all grit. Folks
say it don't take but a small skin to

latent resolntlon, a power, of endur

frail, delicate appearance.
'This doesn't look like a very suit

as he swung her lightly down to terra

'An original conundrum strikes me,
Lance. Why are you and I unlike
