" You 're real. mean—so you are!" And he thiew himself down i on a pile of disjointed kindling wood, in a paroxysm of childish rage. "Is that the way to talk to me ?" angrily demanded Mrs. Parley, be stowing a most cordially given box either side of the doomed yoFig vic tim's head; " and you nothing on earth, hut .a bound boy! I 'nt no patience with you—and Job ,himself wouldn't lft•e! "'t • " Gently, mother, gently. What's the matter now ? " demanded Farmer Parley, cautiously thrusting his sun burntshock of hair into the wood shed door. " Matter ! " echoed Mrs. Parley. " Why, just look here ! Them wheels off the-old wheel-barrow hysted up to the ruff, with the second-hand harness you bought Ao' Deacon Sils bury and the strips for the new rag carpet—and all the wood tumbled down, higgledy-piggledy, to make room for it. Apd the hens auk fed, find the cows an't gone after—and there an't nothin' done that ought to be ! I tell you I ha'nt no patience with his experiments and tricks. Get np Julius, this minute, and go for the cows ; and not a blessed mouth ful of supper will you get this night." Julius Kingsley . obeyed salkily,and with down-droning head.' - He was a bright looking boy of about thir teen, with dark grey eyes and - thick brown .hair,which hung over a square low forehead ; and as he walked he clenched his _boyish_ hands, until the nails indented the flesh in crescent shaped marks. " I won't stand it!" muttered Jul, ins to himself. • ." They've no busi4 ness to treat me so." And then the wrathful mood sub sided in seine degree, as ho remem bered the man deeds of kindness that he had received from both Mr. And Mrs. Parley -thecare in sick ness, the neatly mended clothes, the many little tokens of watchfulness so new and grateful to the orphan boy; and little Alice, too, who trotted at his heels when he went to gather ap ples in the orchard, and thought I the wooden toys his ingenious jack knife furnished the most marvellous of creation. ' "I suppose I am a trial," sighed Julius ; " but she needn't have torn all my machinery down ; and then to box my ears, too ! " It was rather a derogatory process to the boyish dignity of r thirteen. " You ain't in earner abant his supper, mother ?" said Farmer. Par. ley, as they sat• down to the well spread evening board. " Yes, I be. Have some quince sus, Alice ? " " Remember, he's a growin' boy," pleaded her husband. 'I can't help that ; he's got to learn to behave himself. There an't no other way of inanagin' him. It was only yesterday- he blowed the top off my best presart* can, to show Alice how a steamboat worked; and last week, I - most got poisoned with a bottle o' some stuff he'd got tucked away on the shelf, that I took for vineger." "Sulphuric acid, mother;" said lit tle Alice. "It was to —" "I don't cure what it was for," in terrupted the farmer's wife. "Julius can behave well enough when he's a mind to, and he's got to." , And the fsrmer knew from the way .his wife compressed her lips togeth er, that slip was in . unmitigated ear nest. Julius Kingsley went supperless to his room, but before he had begun to undress, a soft knock came to his door, and Alice's voice whispered: • " Julius ! Julius ! " "What is it ? " " Open the door. I've got a piece of peach-pie for you, and two rusks,- find a bowl of milk!' "But what will your mother,: say, Alice ? " a She's gone to Mrs. Badger's, and she thinks I'am in bed, but I got up and dreseed myself. I couldn't sleep, .41ins, thinking how hungry you meat be." And she nestled down close at the bound bey's side, as he, eagerly de voured the snpper,which she brought him. . "I was hungry, Alice," said Julius, as 'he took a long draught of milk, " and you're a good. little thing. I'll do as much for you some day." SMILSDLIES QS DICIVIOUISOS MOO - LW QVAISIIPS.

Julius," ".That's no sign you never Mrs. Parley; secretly relenting in the depths of her motherly heart, gave (Tunas the brownest cakes and the juiciest bit of meat for breakfast, the next morning. ".He'll behave himself now, I guess," she thought ; but in this, she was mistaken. Julius " did up " his chores in the shortest possible period of time, that afternoon,wben haw Parley bad betaken herself to the Sewing Circle with little . Alice, and the farmer was gone to the neighboring village, and applied himself with more zeal than discretion' to the further prosecution of the experiment that had ended so disastrously for the, preserving - "The tea-kettle isn't of glass," thought Julius, " and I know I can make that work." Vain unction to lay to his soul ; for jnst•as that experiment, whatever it happened to be, reached the cul minating point, up flew the tea•ket tie from the stove, tortured by much caloric, and bang went the iron lid, right into the dresser cupboard, that held Hrs. Parley's. beet set of china. Julius stood -staring aghast at-the ruins. All housekeepers have their domestic idols, and this new "iron stone " set was Mrs. Parley's. The tea-pot lay noiseless and demolished before his eyes, three cups were bro ken, and the handle was dashed off from the• cream-pitcher, while the knob was chipped neatly off the cov er of the sugar-bowl. • Julio? only. paused for one glance at the general ruin, then, lie turned and tied ingloriously from this Wa terloo of his teic-utitie effdrts. And the next day, all Bickerton knew that; Fanner Parley's bound boy had run away, after first denaol isl all of Mrs. Parley's china, out of sheer revenge. - because she had boxed his cars the day before. "I - alivays knew that boy Avonldn't cow to no ood," said Deacon Jones. - " There was a vicious look In his eyes," croaked Miss Lavina Denham, " and I only wonder he didn't set fire to the ItOuso. or burn you all in your beds." ' But little Alice cried bitterly, and treasured more tenderly than ever, a goggle-eyed doll, with arms out of all proportion, and feet several degrees larger than ber head, which was the last wooden exploit Julius had pre sented to het. " never have another bound Goy," asserted Mrs. Parley. " Well, well," sighed the farieer, "how time does slip away from us, to be sure! Alice is nineteen to-day, and it don't seem right she rhotUll be away from us ou her birthday. She's been three, months in the city now, wife." "Yes," said Mr:. Parley, nodding her bead sagely-, " and I don't blieve she'll come home alone, neither." !.• Eh! " The farmer opened wide his blue eyes ; "yon don't s'pose she's engaged to that Mr, Clinton ?" " You men are so slow to put two and two together," said Mrs. Parley, With a conscious smile. " sus- Pitioned it this long while, and Mrs. Carter writes that it'll be a splendid match, and half the young ladies in Boston are envying our little country girl. Only think! won't it be nice. to have our Alice a rich lady, livin' in a big house in Bostcin?" Mr. Parley stared steadfastly at the fire. "Who is he, any way ?." he asked in a troubled voice. •" She's all the child we've got, wife. - We can't give her to a man, without - knorin' who, and what he is." " You needn't worry," 'said his wife, with the super calmness of one who is p..sted. " He's as-steady-go in' as you be yourself—at least, so Mrs. Carter writes—and he's an in ventor, whatever that may be. Any way; he made a great fortune eat of a patent he's sold to the government. Alice won't have to work all her days as hard as I have done, and that's one comfort." ' And when Alice's shy letter, which implied far, more than it told, inti mated that she was coming home under Mr. Clinton's escort, the old farm-house was duly swept and garnished for the reception of the honored guest. Mrs. Parley put on -her best black silk, and the farin.r donned his - buttermilk suit, which seemed to Mai as gorgeous as it had been on the day he bought it, twenty . good years ago— " 1 wonder which train they will; come in," said Mrs. Purley, reflec-; Lively, "I should - hate the worst Way. to have that turkey spoiled."

When the hospitable 'meal was over, and Mrs. Parley came in from the kitchen; pulling down the sleeves that had l:een rolled up above her elbow, and tying on a clean checked apron, Alice sprung to her feet. "Mother,' she said,with her face all smiles and "dimples, "Mr. !Clinton has brought you down a present." " A.present ! " cried Ilre. Parley.

Enron : Washington Territo ry, situated in the 'far, corner of-United Sta:es, has until IV cently been comparatively unknown; but in view of the construction of the Northern Pacific Railway from its initial point in Minnesota, to some point on Puget Sound in Washing ton Territory, ingniries have been made in . referenee to the Territory . and Sound ; therefore, a few facts concerning them may be of interest to some' of 'you; readers. Breaking in from the north west coast, in the latitude of 49 degs., the yStrait of Juan-de-Fuca extends eastward for a distance of eighty miles, from thence tlre Strait of.
