Old. Jedd Pallfry turned. down the 'ins a little,
glanced nervously at the sdailiie row of coffins
en each- side of him, locked the shop door-.and
stood in 'ilfe street.
It was Christmas eve, and the snow flakes
like tiny visite birds from Paradise, were light

long streets of the city. , •
Every night at the same hour, eight o'clock, for
ten years, the undertaker bad turned dosrn the
gas, locked the door, and placed the same key
under the same mat, and stood in the seine posi

into the narrow, zig zag street which, to him,
ended a t his supper table:
But this time he was not going home. ,The

bloodless lips, he flattened and wbiteWed 'his 'nose
on the window glass, and looked into the gloomY
shop suspiciously. lie saw nothing
, at first but
the accustomed number of coffins, and the velvet
pall folded on the counter, and those tiro 'ell&
black stools which we all have seen in our . hoines,
God pity us! But as be looked, his dim almond
shaped-eyes grew suddenly. to orbs. A strip of
flooring had commenced swelling, and budging,
and warping! Little-by little it grew into the
shape of a mound: tiny emerald spears of grass
shot out of it in every direetien, then it was dott

bush, with a single white bud; sprung ep fits&

Jedd rubbed his. eyes,.eti Well'as

form, and a willow Waited its green length's over
the mound. Anil he sew" the meted sunshine

Jedd looked and looked ; but when the grass
and the daisies grew tremulous as in a :rudder%

look no longer; and 'he shut out the strange sight

In the midst of this the fire in the diminutive

between the warmth of the dreamer's fancy and

in the next street, the muffled sound of the en

who seemed like deMonared-shot `front t'andetio

of the storm, hailed him, and the drifted snow
was 'more than knee keep—but -.Todd heeding
neither, struggled on with his burden. •
Then a brilliant coal fire threw a .lurid
pleasant glow over old Jedd's sitting room. The
elderly house-keeper—completely dressed, with
the exception of a night cap which abe had for
gotten to remove—huried to and fro in "a state
of mind," collecting more jugs of hot water Abut
would be required to warm the feet of all.;her.
Majesty's subjects in 'the Crimea. Close by the
grate, in a bailie' Lambert of an easy-chair, sat
the unconscious Tom, with Jedd soothing one
of his bands and gazing knitiously in his face.
So an hour went bl'r, and then :the child's epee
uifclosed; and Jedd look hint in hie sans and
the old man's whole hetsit was a prayer—a pray
er to Him who "tempers the wind to %Tie shorn'
lamb."
Wben I have said that terrible dreams dria
strange visions never. haunted Jedd 'Pallfry air
