A Boarding-House Romance.
The clock had just struck nine.
Hugh Dyson and his friend, Mr. Car
hart, were enjoying a snug little bach
elor tete-a-tete by the light of the sha
ded gas-burner. They were a cu
rious pair; similar, and yet not alike;
fond of one another'S society, and yet
constituted very 'differently. Hugh
was a tall, strongly-made Saxon, with
fair hair, clear blue eyes, and a fresh;
healthy complexion; while it would
have required only a mantle, a plum
ed hat, and a rapier to convert Sel
wyn Carhart into a Spaniard of the
days of the Inanisition.
" Then you're really determined, to
make a change in your snarters," Ob
served the latter ? as he listlessly tnrn
ed over the uncut leades of a newly
, arrived niagazine. " Why, I thought
you had struck root here like a thrif
ty young geranium!"
"I can't stand it," said Dyson, rue
fully. " I'm the' only old bachelor in
the whole house, and everybody prnys
on me. The girls make me buy their
concert tickets, the men borrow mo
ney of me, and the matrons regularly
victimile me with their babes, and
their errands, and their country cou
sins. Besides, the servants use of
my cologne before I can fairly get a
'sniff at it myself, and make free with
my hair brushes; and the landlady
brings All the odds and ends of Wi
nged soap to my cup, and puts me
off with the, ragged towels, and bent
tongs. Arid that isn't the worst of
it, either,- old boy. I could endure
all that, with only an odd grimace
now and then; but when it comes to
entomological specimens in the jelly,
and a mouse's leg in the mince pie-- '
" Nonsense!"
" It's a fact, I tell you! These eyes
have seen it, and this countenance
has paled with speechless horror. No,
I shall have -to pull up stakes, to
change my base, as the antediluvians
say I'
" Hugh, why don't you get mar
ried'!"
" Why . don't I go to Heaven ? One
event is about, as probable as the oth
er!"
" No; but really, Hugh, you're just
the sort of person to enjoy a bright
hearthstone' and. a pretty wife of your
own. Did you never think of it ?"
" Why, yes, I have thought of it—
there's no law against thinking, you
kLowi."
"I wish you would speak seriously
for once in your life."
" Didn't I? lam sure it is a suf
ficiently serious subject. I teas in
love once, . Selwyn, and engaged to
be married."
" You ?"
" Yes, I. Seems ..rather improba- -
ble, don't it? but nevertheless it is
true as fate.
"Who was she?"_ •
" A little black-eyed divinity, with
cheeks like two red velvet peaches,
and hair that wasn't so much black
as it was purple. Native State, Con
necticut; age, eighteen; name, Janie;
surname—well, as long as it didn't
become Dyson, it is not a matter of
so much vital importance. Cause of
misunderstanding, a tall fellow by the
name of Packer. 'Don't knowwhat's
become of 'em, and don't care 1 1 / 4 "
"The dream is past, and with it Bed
The hopes that once—'
all that. sort of thing, you , know.
Now you've heard all about it, and I
hope you feel better. Look here—
see what slot of advertisements about
desirable, board for uneiceptionable
parties' I've cut out of the papers!
Some of them ought to suit, I should
imagine. Vsay, Selwyn., I wish you'd
ad that stiff old hotel, and come and
room with me. You won't? Very
well, then,stay where you are I"
And Ili. Dyson poked the fire vig
orously, and contemplated the wor
sted roses on the toe of his slipper
with dreamy earnestness.

" I like the rooms very•much. On
ly twenty dollars a week, you say?"
Yea, sir," answered the tall Scotch
house-maid, whose red hair fairly il
lumined the apartments; that's in
clodin' foire and kaghts."
They were very cosy little rooms,
a bedroom and sitting-room carpeted
with crimsOn, and possessing three
south windows, through whose ruddy
draperies the sun sh ine streamed
cheerily in. --There was, no display of
costly furniture or •expensive uphol
stery, but everything was deliciously
neat and orderly.
" I don't believe they have mouse's
legs in the mince pies here," thought
our hero. . •
".I say, Janet--"
"My name is Mary Ann, please
sir"
Mary Ann, the—it'll- all be the
same a ha:ond pars hence. Who

Miss Jefferson, sir."
" Jefferson, - eh?" Hugli Dyson
started a little, " What Jefferson?"
"I don't know, sir."
"An'unimmied lady?"
"Oh, ap, sir ft"
"An old maid, probably," thought
Hugh, with a sidewise screw of his
visage, "jvith a false : front, - and a

And Hugh Dyson went away sWieg
ing his umbrella, and congratulating
himself on having.found such a cozy
little altar of refuge 1
The table was neat as • the socims,
the attendance prompt and sedulonii,
the other boarders not aildicted, ap
parently, to pig, and, best of a%
the landlady never made her appear
ance. Up to this period, in Hugh
Dyson's everie4ce, the word lan&a
dy had been synonymous with a sort
of private detective, a meddling gos
sip, a smooth-tongued harpy, and
this, new state of thingiwas infinitely
"It's too goodtio last long," sighed
our hero. "Something "will certain

fit of apoplexy. If she's the fat old
lady in I saw trundling down
the basement stairs yesterday, she's
exactly the sort of subject for a good,
tearing stroke-of apoplexy. And re
ally that would be a public Usti for
she's the only boarding-house keep
er I ever knew who had a proper idea
of the , dressing for lobster salad 1
And then her cranberry tarts—they're
just sublime 1"
For Hugh Dyson, like all bache
lors who board, was beginning to
think a great deal too much of what
he ate and drank
His surmise proved to be correct.
Something did happen, although it
was not exactly what. our hero had
apprehended. There was tio earth
quake, nor yet a fire, neither did the
fat old lady who " trundled " up and
down the basement stairway indulge
in a fit; but Hugh Dyson himself fell
sick.
--- ;lt'enothing," he said, a little pet
tishly, when Carhart advised him to
send for a doctor. " Nobody ever
yet died, f a cold. FR get the Scotch
girl to brew me a jug of cOnip tea,
and I'll go to bed early; that'll set
me np all right." • - _
But neither catnip tea nor bed pro
duced the desired result. And final
ly, when he was; stricken down by the
fierce and relentless hand of fever,
our hero was unwillingly obliged to
confess himself seriously ill.
Through the delirium ' that was
gathering over his poor cordused
brain, Hugh Dyson caught hero and
there a connected sentence of the
doctor's talk at his bedside.
" lon see,"-said Dr. Fano, solemn
ly, "itis very sickly just now through
out the entire .city, and it is almost
impossible to obtain a good nurse at
any terms: Indeed,- I don't know of
a single professional one who is dis
engaged.'
" But I should think there might
be enough to come, if yori pay them
well," suggested Selwyn Carhart.
Dr. Fane shook Ins head: " Ty
phoid fever is an ugly disease, sir."
" Yes; but in the name of Chris- -
thin charity, -
" Not much of that element left in
the world, I'm afraid !"
" We might send for the land
lady—"
" I don't want her," interrupted
Dyson, breaking feebly into the con
versation. " She's fat and she trun.-
dies, and—"
" There, there 1" soothed the doc
tor; " it's all right, my poor boy. Go
to sleep!"
" But you know, doctor, how it is,"
pleaded Hugh, catching at the hand
which was laid on his pulse. "They,
wear false fronts put on one side, and
dyed dresses, and—and foxy about
the seams, you know 1" _
"Exactly so—foxy about the seams!
Yes, yes!" and Dr. Vane went away.
Fifteen minutes afterwards, Car
hart jerked the bell-wire vehemently.
"Send your mistress up, here at
once. That gentleman is raving, and
some woman must be here." •
Presently a tall, slight lady in black
entered. Carhart stared vaguely at
her.
"Are you the landlady?'
"I Miss Jefferson, sir."
"Oh!" And after a Minute's hesita
tion, Carhart told his story and plead=
ed hialrequest. The landlady assent
ed at Once; but her softly spoken
words were interrupted by the high
pitched voice of Hugh Dyson: •
" Janie! Janie you've come back
to me--my ownlittle jewel I knew
it would all be made clear some day,
and I loved you all the time—l did,
Janie- upon my soul, I did ! Pat
your Lad on my head, Janie ! Oh,
it feels so cool! so cool!"
Miss Jefferson colored and' hesita
ted; so did Carhart. ,
" It is only . the ravings of fever," he
said, reassurukly. " He fancies you
' some one else.. Perhaps it will be
better to humor the whim."
So Miss Jefferson sat down by the
bedside, her soft dark garments
'CnSelesslY around her, and laid
her hand on Hugh's forehead, with
velvet-soft touch.
" I can go to sleep now," he mur
mured.- " Cool, so cool—like a rose
leaf that has been out aII night in the
rain. There was ally,' a magnetism
in your hand, 'amp!'
He went to sleep; and ?die Jeffer

.ed curiously at the landlady.
She was perhaps some four or Ave

,s. correspondent of the
porti)ady Ozdte,,who has recently
paid a OA to the " Glen," gives ,the
following interesting description of
it: _ •
The.question has been asked re
" Whit , . is Watkins Glen
like, and' where is it?" &e. The first
question IS more .easily asked than
answered: • It is not an. easy qtes-
Ition - to anawer .within the limits of a
single , letter, neither is, it an easy
question answered under any dream
stancetc Watkins Glen is a strange
and wonderful place. It is not
agara in its grandeur, and yet . . it is
more strange, more wonderful than
Niagara. It is not the cataract Akre
the falls, in its wild and mad carder,
plunging headlong towards•the great
leap, and yet the Glen bah, in places
a-• wildness, and an awe-inspiring.
look, that calms the .visitor to ex
claim, "How wonderful!" I might
call it a vast ravine, that has been,
through past, ages, growing deeper
and deeper by . the action of -a stream
of water. Itjs a chasm, and more,
it -is a gorge on the most extensive
scale. It is a wonder in Nature, one
of those Wonders- you seldom meet
with;*and its curiosities and " start,
ling demonstrations" have been grow
ing greater for years and years , past.
Under his vague realization of what,
the Glen "could be, compared to, how
'can I convey to 'your mind, kind
reader,. correct idea - of what it really
ix,;..and what appearance it presents ?
You enter it with exclamations of
surprise. You gaze upon its sides of
massive ' rock, towering more than
one hundred feet above • you,' and on
the summit the hemlock and pine
reach apparently to the cloilds. It
is ,a . mighty cleft in , the mountain
made by the rush of water to-day
passing through it. From the point
we entered to the terminus, I think .
at is about one and a-half miles, and
in this journey through we stood at
times upon the smooth, level rock by
the side of a gently flowing stream,
and again we dabbled in a tiny lake
as transparent as glass; a few rods
from you this same placid stream,
like a young Niagara, foamed, and
dashed, and thundered down a, preci
pice fifty feet in height, and at the
base, falling upon the rock, had worn
out' for itself a perfect trough, as
smoothly and , nicely done asrif work
ed out by the hand of a skillful me
chanic. Again you cross tiny bridges
hang high in air, like swinging things
of life, connecting projecting rocks on
either side. From the bridges we
ascended or descended, as the nature
of the Glen demanded, and th© pas
sage-way opens before you. Then
along narrow shelves—all rock—rock
above, rock below, rock all around!
Some of these ledges are not more
thass eighteen-inches vide. At tinaes,
upyou go, step by step in the rock;
or from ledge to ledge by stairway,
or down by almost hand-made steps.
Right before you find a flight of steps
-up s up—very steep, 40 or 50 feet,
and then down, down, 20, 30, or 40
feet. Oh I what a funny trip wins
this. Again. the water thundeied
from above, right overhead, and dash- I
es right over you. Now -crowd the
rocky side of that towering wall and
let the water dash; for it hat, been''
doing so in the ages of the past, long'
'years. before you gazed upon this
sparkling beverage--you will be dry
enough from the overhanging cliff. '
Now follow the little path before you
carefully, for the ledge is slippery and
the pathway narrow. Agairethe Glen
opens into a vast amphitheatre with
scenery- grand, striking and bewilder
ing all around you. Looking up the
Glen from.this point you see the vis

Along. Ithe shelvy sides, =up and
down the stairway by the side of the
clear stream, some bathing their fore
heads, for, the day was hot, others in
frolic arid fan splashing the water
about, and full of life and each con
tributing to the general enjoyment.
There.as a certain point in this Glen
at which you willwitness a beauti

width, prOvideok you' are there just at
the right time,' about . 5 p.m., we
think; the place, the upper end of

There is s. place' on the Summit called
the Aliformtairs House," about one

' had here. When you leave the Worm
fain House on your way back to Wet=

From this point you

'children -On one Occasion I had
purclunisi some remarkably fifth ap
ples. After the repast, half a dozen
were left untouched, -and my thrifty
companion firthivith removed them
to the phial of deposit; where it was
her custom to preserve the remains
of our knick-knacks. A day or two
after, when - I bad seated myself at
\the table to dine, she said to me smil
ingly, "So father has found the way
to my_safety-bcri, has her, I was at
• a loss' to understand the 'meaning,
and desired her to explain.
"Have you not been at my draw
er?'
"What drawer ?"
"The upper drawerin my chamber
bureau. Did you not take therefrom
the largest of the pippins I had put
away from the girls?"
"No, I did not." . "
A. slight cloud passed over the
countenance of my wife. She was'
troubled. The loss of the apple was
in itself nothing; but we had careful. ,
ly instructed our_childrerrnot to ap
propriate to thei r use any article of
family consumption, - without permis
sion; when the demand was at =
reasonable, it had never been denied
-them. She was loth to suspect any
one of the offence; WO had a servant,
girl in the family, but is she Was sup : -
posed to know nothing of the apples,
my wife hesitated to • charge it upon
her. She at length broke the silence
, by saying: "We must examine the of
fair. I can hardly' think one of the
children would so act. If we find
them guilty we must , reprove them.
Will yon please look:into rt ?"
The girls were separately brought
into my presence—the eldest on 6 first.
dict you -take from your
mother's drawer an' apple?" -"No,
sir." I,
"Maria, did you take from your
mother's drawer an apple ?" "No,
• "Mary, did you t • ake from your
mother's drawer' an apple?" "No,
"It must have been taken by the
servant; call her to me," said I, ad
dressing my wife. , •
"Nell, how came you to take from
the draw of your Mistress. without
permission, the largest of the apples
she had placed there ?" "Wot ap
ples ?" 4

"Did you not take apples from the
drawer of your mistress?" "No, sa."
Now it was evident that falsehood
existed somewhere. • Could it be that
some of my children had told me a
he ? The thought harassed me. I
went to the store but soon returned
again. Meanwhile, the servant girl
had communicated to her mistress
that she had seen our youngest go
into the garret with a large apple the
morning before. On examination,
the core and several pieces of rind
were found upon the floor. I again
called Mary to me,and said to her af
fectionately : .
"Mary, my daughter, did you go
into the garr et
, yesterday?"
"Yes; sm.?
"Did you go there With an apple?"
• " No, tar."'
I was unwilling to believe my
sweet child capahle, of telling in a
falsehood but appearances seemed
against her. The fault lay between
her and the servant; and while I was
desirous to acquit my rhild,l did not
wish to accuse unjustly
. the negro. Ii
therefore took Mary into a. room '
alone. I spoke to her of the enormity
of lying—of the necessity of telling
the truthi-.-of the severe penalty I
should .be compelled to inflict upon
her, it she did not confess the whole
to me, and with tears in my eyes
urged her to say that she done it; if
indeed she had; -`Graduallylbecame
comvinced of her guilt ; and now I
felt determined she should confess it.
After weeping and protesting her in=
nocence, and weeping apd again pro

alarm her ; and falling on her knees,
she said, 41 Father, I did take the ap

- Never shall I fo, , et .that moment.

Suppressum the emotion, I retired,.

' It is nothing to argue. that the

' Whether intemperance be a physi
cal disease; the - misfortmur of - the
stomach or the nerves, or whether it
be a moral or mental weakness, one
:thing, is certain, that the appetite
"grows by what it feeds on , ' and,
that, once acquired, it is next to im
possible to shake it off. But it is not
quite impossible. Neither, let the
longing for the poisoi: be as great as
it may, is there any man who e 1 s not

There is no man to *hose existence,
or even to Whose health and comfort,
the stimulus is indispensab le. Our
Prisons are full of persons Whose in
carceration is due to indulgence' in
drink ; and yet the prisoners' live
without it, and are in better.physical
health while in durance than they are
when at liberty.
Murder, theft, robbery, last, dis
honesty, indolence and poverty, hard
ness of heart, and contempt for the
comforts and claims of those who are
nearest and dearest, are awlng the
fruiti, of intemperance. Every scaf
fold adds its testimony. Crimes, the
most revolting, grow out of the de
thronement of reason by inordinate
drink. And the moral sense may :4(3.

WALIE WHEN To BB3l2L—When
Chief Justice Oliver Ellsworth com
menced. the practice of law, he lived
in Bloomfield ; and as his pecuniary -
means were not large, he was accus
tomed to come from his office on foot:
There was, at the, time, a dashing
merchant the city—Kr. IL, - who
rode in a showy vehicki, drawn by a
pair of showy horses ; and as he often
,rode to Bloomfield, he frequently met
Mr. E—llifeeting him one . morning,
he reined up his team, and saluted
him with " Good moiiaing, Mr..-Ells
worth, what are you walking . for ;
why don't you rider'
" Because," was the reply, " I have
found that pro* most walk at some
period'of their lives, andr choose to
walk when I begin."
It would be well if all who isFQ;Liet
ting out in life were of this opinion ;
but they are not. Hence such num
bers, detail:lined to ride' when they
are yotwg, are forced tor walk when
they are old.
A few years having elapsed, Mr. IL
failed in business, and wais ob

Osidni or METRODlBX—Methodism
originabid in Ireland, at Cork, in
1748. In August, of, that - year, Mr.
Charles 'Wesbiy preached a forams
sermor(iri the open air to more than'
one thousand people, and in the fol
lowing month incorporated in church
fellowehip some souls whom he had'
;won for , Christ. As in other places
the planting of- Methodism in that
city was fo llowed by fierce perseen-.
tion. In May, 1750, Mr. John Wes
ley preached a sernion in Cork, and
was burned in effigy by a bora° mob.
But "none of these things moved"
him, and within six years a chapel
was opened by him in Hammonds
Marsh. In September, 1772, Cork
was enriched by the diet of one of
the pioneer Methodisttweedier" in
North- America, Richard Boardman,
wheresta under the shadow, of the
cathedral in hope of the reorarrection
of 'the inst. Wesley's last visit,
to Cork was only two years before his
death. Methodism is no'w strong
and infinential in that city.
