N— was not disa greeable as a plhce of residence, being pretty and picturesque. in its scenery, healthy, And with many conveniences On account of its being accessible to 'the large city Nature had favored it with a beautiful river, rp mantic hills for a background, - and a deep, wide valley, in which the houses of the villagers nestled.close together 'near the large works from whichl_they obtained their livelihood, and whose proprietor had much influence over them.- Their homes were pretty and , picturesque,with their white ;wails, rustic porches, 'pretty , gardenS, and * yards filled with _gaily ,colored` flaw- ; ers, consisting bt blue and pink I morning glories, sun flowers, lady slippers, cockcombs, and so. forth. Indeed, Mrs. Mitson said to one of her neighbors, "N-- wasjust the place to come for a choice bouquet," or " bokay," as poor' Aunt Polly called it—for everybody in called her "Aunt Polly." She . verY often pronounced her words wrong, and when Tier friends would kindly rcmonstr :te, would reply : " .

There was at N— two churches, one a Baptist and - one, a .11.ethodist. The pastor of - the latter resided: in the village, whilst the lorineigentle man came as a supply from another town. There was a great rivalry be tween the two churches which went so far that on one occasion - of their 'extra -meetings the (Baptist had,. a .great revival following thekethodist, and received many meinbers, so . enraged one of the members, Steellsour, of the latter denoininatitin, . that he : used profane langifige and d eel 'Jed that-the- - Methodist had shaken . the'ireCwhilstAhe Baptist gathered-the fruit" - Buti.inch little unpleasantneseirill occur sometimes, in denominations, as well. as 'Monet indiAduals.

Some of the young ladies declared he squinted; others said he had crooked limbsp another, that he had red hair. Whilst they did not admire his wife, its they had heard, before she arrived she mei -aristo eratie and proud. There are a cer tain class of people who have an en-. vious hatred fur those who happen to' occupgo little better position in life thanAhemselves. The minister's wife, Was. a large, dark-eyed; superior look ing lady, much loved, much loving; too refined , and cultivated for the general circle of N—:-- by which she was surrounded. ..Her 'father was- a man in good circumstances. Added to her natural mental' gills, she had many aivantages; this enraged and excited the jealousy of her inferiors, who gave way to their petty spite in all kinds of false assertions. hiss. Stublas, the elder's wife, declared she had "five apankin' new silk dresses, and•dear only knows how many bon, nets. Now I'd like to know if that is becoming • in a minister's wife in. N— ? She' has come here to show' off her fine feathers ; to , make - as think she is something I She might have saved herself the trouble, for we are not ir . e kind to make account of such torn olery." " Did I ever hear the like,' replied Mrs. Da*son. " Poor broth Jones! the Lord has afflicted him'surei Why she plays the plan ny, paints pictures in oil, makes wax figures, jist as if we hadn't natural flowers enough, that she must dis grace herself by making _artificial ones,; ,:;and worse than that—why what:do you think ? I must tell you —I cannot keep it to. myself any l longer—slic writes for the newspa pers !" Mrs. Stubbs' raised her little grey ' eyes up to Heaven, with a look of utter despair. " The Lord s ive us and preserve us!" she exclaimed. " Poor brother Jones 1 I tell you it would look better for her to go to the wash tub; he'd be a clever man if it wasn't for her; she jist rules him," replied her neighbor, sighing so loudly and violently , that she al most blew Lori tall skinny listener away. . ''' " Another thing," said Mrs. Cheat, who kept, the village boarding house and was - never known to tell the truth, being above such a small sc. eomplishment,' " they are hoarding with me until they can gbt their bouse ready foi: them . she is called good , looking, but don't I know ti thing or two! Don't I knew she painte, ,, blackens her eyebrows, colors her hair, uses the ' Bloom of Youth,' and all such things to make herself appear party, and after all is not!" " Friends," said the sweet, low voiced Mrs. Thointon, "I have heard your- remarks .while passing * and...l think' it my duty to inform youthat I have' known our new minister's wife, Mrs. Jones, since she vies a "child. She is not of an age to render it necessary to use the ' Bloom of Youth,''or, color. her hair, and would not disgrice herself by tainting her cheeks. In fact, she uses no art 1 wh ,- afever. She is • refined, amiable, generous to a fault, a kind-hearted lady, always ready-to do any act of kindness in her power, conscientious to a fault, and - we should not 'perse cute her on account of her superiori-. V."' Gentle Mrs. Thornton 's • eyes had • filled with the , dew of feeling whilst vindicating her lovely.friend, and unwilling to wait for any excuse she bowed coldly and passed on. " She's no judge," said Mrs. Stubbs; " she's just an angel, that's what she is.; anyone can deceive dear sister Thornton ; she is .so good she can't think anybody is different from her self. - But 1 pity brother Jones." - SO the parson and his wife com menced life under difficulties at Mrs. Cheat, as already stated, kept the boarding house of the village, and no one ever•left her without eing the worse off in Ouse for their stay. She bad a cunning trick of borrowing Without committing the folly, as she Considered it, of returning, and never stooped to pay her baker or grocer, ar in fact any one she could trick out of their money. - She was a wo- man whom Mrs. Jonei treated with great kindness, assisting her out of many difficulties; she had, cheated the tender hearted lady like every one else, then slandered her. .Alas ! poor Mrs. Jones!' There .was - another lady greatly vexed about the. . young; minister's Wife. This was Mrs. Spriggini, or " Aunt Sally," as every nne . called her ; even the little children, which pleased .her. Milt ' Sit*, or Mrs. Spriggins, was greatly exercised over Mni. Jones' extravagance. The old lady was a widow, residing in a little stone house upon the hillside, the land of . whiCh- she :cultivated,, for a garden. At the base of the hill was another old'house in which she did all herrough work,-such as washing, ironing, etc. When occupied at this place she would leave the door Of her hawk unfastened, trusting to the hon esty of the public., marking in chalk upon . it—" Not at home; down at the old house." She 'kept a' little . 'cigar and tobacco shop , with candies and „nuts by way ,of variety. . The little Thorntons, on their,Way to and froth school, took great pleasure in calling to see Aunt Sally, andtdepos -Ring all thcirstray pennies with tier. She was very folid of the'little groupi:, and put as much confidence in, them: as if they had. been.grown,peOple.

Poor P T amills attended a store in the city of P-- and considered herself very much of a belle. After her husband, for his primes, had se cured a home for life, his fair wife was on the lookout for another ; and although she considered herself a great coquette, the young men were not at all afraid - of this very coquet- . tish but not dangerous young lady. The fair Pamilta-was home on a. visit and tried hard to captivate _Thomas McFarlin, an Winker of her mother's. There is certainly no accounting for tastes, for he married Aunt Sally, preferring her to the daughter, tho' - twenty-five years younger- than his bride. This trifling disparagement was accounted forbyPamilla in this business-like way :, " Everybody knows that Thomas never married mother for love ; it was for her money." ' - - When Aunt Sally died 'the house and lot were sold, and it was found that everything was coveied bymort gages to more than three hundred dollars, being its full value. Poor Mr and . Mrs. Jones tried hard to conciliate the people of N—, bat the task was difficult. Mrs. Thornton was always her friend, as, indeed, were all the refined and culti vated everywhere, and tried hard to ' assist the lovely creature to bring order out of chaos. " Now, my love, she said, after hearing Mrs. Stubbs' remarks about her spankin new silk dresses, "I think it would suit some of the good people of N— if you would dress more simply; we are a plain class, my dear, and you must make allowances for us." Mrs. Jones thanked her kindly as she turned away to conceal her tears. " Now see," said Mrs. Thornton, apologetically, her eyes filling also, as she threw her' arms around her neck and, kissed her wet cheek, "you must not allow trifles to grieve you; it will all be right in time- the better class of are goo d and kind, and . the others will be convinced by and by." " God bless you, Mrs. Thornton," she replied ; "you are a true friend, arid if all the faults that, the good people accuse me of are true, you will find I . have at least one virtue-- grattiude." After she had ' gone Mrs. Jones buried her face in her hands and burst into tears. She never reproach•:, ed otheis so much as her own noble self,--" the fault must be surely mine; they would like me if they could, I am sure. I(must be an awkward blunderer, although I try to be good, and'do a noble work in life, but it seems my life in N— is to be'. a failure." • • Rind, unselfish human being, thus her tortured heart accused itself. She was so sensitive and loving; she want ed to love 'them and win their love. She was an orphan, just having lose her surviving parent—her indulgent father, whom she idolized ;, at her a household pet, and there, though all tried to spoil her, she had come out 'of the fiery furnace un scathed, With a heart pure and warm, tender and_lovingf; although some times a little grilck tempered, her anger passed away as quickly .as it came. "I will try to do right," she said ; ," perhaps they will 'learn to, endure Me for George's sake, for no, one can help loving hits . will con.' suit with sweet little: Mrs. Thornton ;I she Must have bad difficulties to con tend With, for she is . so superior to me, and with my dear husband." Determined to please, the , next Sunday at church she dressed in the plainest attire. This now annoyed the good people, affecting them in a different way. "Itis a reflection on us to have our minister's wife dress that way. It looks as if we did not pay :salary enough to have her look. decent," Said Mrs. Cheat to her him-, band. '‘ She is a miser, and wanta to get rich off of us', she has just got money from her father's estate, and if we could not afford to dress. her there is money enough of her own to do it with." - "'Well, , Elizabeth," replied her meek *band, never being known to 'differ with her,"" I reckon slug thinks, with her big-bug airs, and - elegant ideas, vie are such-common folks we are not worth putting on * fine clothes for." ' " Well, we'll teach her better, I guess. The people of N— are not so greekas they are green looking." The summer ,passed, followed by the autumn; then winter, severe and icy. The parson and his wife were happy in good works and the society of Quell ;other. One evening he was called mit after tea to see a sick wo man. Airs... Jones sat in her little tlrawing.roam the cheer.ful hearth fire. .The - figh. fell cheefily on the pretty,White and crimson el.,rpet'artit dark covered furniture,ftom man ile and table, whilst a handsome shepherd dog stretched , himself at length upon the 'rug before the fire.

She went" back again and seated herself, after placing his dressing gowli upon the back of a chair to get warm, and his slippers upon the rug: She listened; the chick in the hall struck ten. "Wilt he never come? and he with such a cold!" D#ar George! If there ever was a good man, ho is one." Just then the dog sprang-4i with a lyark. Solite one had opened the garden gate and opened the door of the hall. She flew to meet 4lui ; she felt him tremble as he supported her. " George," Said she, anxiously, " what hits happened ?" - Poor lira. Harvey has, gone hOme, my love...gone to her 'sternal • • . • _ REGARDLESS. OP DENUNCIATION PROM ANY QUARTER.

"There is no doubt of it, my love," replied her husband 4 ' • . " How comfortabli it lobks, wife, in this pretty hall 11 isaid he, looking proudly around. IZ was neither nar row nor long—resembling more a ismall room ; the floor was covered with a white and grey oil cloth in a diamond pattern, a large, old-fash ioned eight-day clock stood in the back corner—a relic from. Amy's home—whose loud striking could be plainly, heard - throughout the entire house. " Yes, it is comfortable and cheer tul_ loOking• here," replied Amy, Witshing with pleasure at his compli ment, as she ,assisted him to-remove his great. coal. If the hall was invit ing, more •so was the pretty little square parlor, inside of which the cheerful wood-fire crackled and blazed upon the hearth, whilst the brass ten der fairly glittered in lamp and fire light. A few choice books adorned the crimson covered centre table, where Amy's work basket stood tilled with gaily covered zephyrs, for she never allowed herself to be idle, and was now busily employed in some delicate- fancy work for the village fair. • " You see, Georffe, I mended the socks firat," said she, pointing to a pile of h i neatly mended hose upon the, table, " the useful before the or namental, you percei%e." Ile laughed as he seated himself in a great crimson arm-chair, which she had placed for him, placing hie slip- pered feet, uyithi the fender. The dog jumped around him fin a few minutes, then stretched hiniself again before the fender. 'Ainy, with het soft black cashmere dress; carefully fitting her figure, with a snowy frill ornamenting her neck, whilst a crim son bow was pinned at her , throat, corresponding with, a similar one in her. hair, looked lovely, sol at least the pastor thought as he watched her quiet and graceful movements, as she walked through the room. don't know which was most pleased to see you, Leo or I," said she, bending over the back of his chair and kissing him. 1 " Amy," said , be, fondly, "how happy you make mei our home. is a Miniature Eden. I often wonder at my good fortune in getting you." ." I married you out of ,pure com passion," sue replied, laughing mis chievously, "for of coarse no one else' wanted you." ' "And,"' he replied, laughing also, ." that was my case, too. , But seri ously,", he continued, "you know , ,what rivals I had, and at one time ,you were engaged to Charley Lee, besides yOur other admirers, Frank 'Ellegood and Harry Levering."' " And relinquishe.d them all," she replied, "for Parson Jones , l ir poor, brother Jones, as 11Irs. Stub s says."'

In the meantime, Amy and Mrs. Thornton were iibt idle. Ainy organized a sewing !moi ety in which a good price was paid for all who assisted.

In the darkest year of the war, five •oung men were sworn in as newly elected representatives in the Thiity eighth Congress. James A. Garfield was 32 years of age, and born in Cuyahoga county, Ohio; James G. Blaine was 33, and born in Pennsyl vania; Wm. B.' Allison was allound born in Perry; Ohio; James F. Wil son-was 35, and born in' Newark, Ohio, and Wm. Windom was 36, and born in Belmont,„ Ohio. Mr. Win dom alone had served before ; all the others then entered Congress for the first time. Four were born in. Ohio, though the five then represent ed four different States. They came to know each other *ell. The fierce struggle of civil' war, the glories of victory, the anxieties and doubts of reconstruction,lthey shared, together. To-day,the youngest of the five is President. The next in years, his former Speaker, becomes Secretary of State. The oldest in years and service becomes - his Becietary Of the Treasury, because the third in years declined. And the 'fifth Member cif this group, Mr. Wilson, of lowa, will probably take the seat in the Senate vacated by : lowa's` War Governor, Kirkwood, 'who becomes President Garfielsrei Secretary of the Interior.
