The conversation is sure to be left ' entirely to them. Nobody else will ever think of putting hi a word, other than some interjec tional phrase to mark tho attention given, and; the'pleasure fiilt, in it, suCh as i • “ Well, did. evet-f”-- “I dp declare!” “ That’s just it.” It tiirns out, that tho Doctor’s grand-motlier once heard Mr, Wesley preach in Ireland,, and that he has himself read Watson’s life, and knows that Adam Clark wrote a very" learned commentary oii thewhole Bible, without miss-, Ingasinglo verso in it; and so; ho is a sort of half-brother, ? and must feel a.tather warm sida fpr' .thp church that he’ knows so much about. .Besides, if is a good sign of. him tliat he has. paid so much attention to serious things. , Hncle Abraliaih is.curious to know.whep) he was «< raised, ’’ and where he studied, and as the names of the towns “ down below” are res ’ jpectable, one of them having a bank in it, and the other being tlieresMoncoofthoWhlg can didate for .

Wo have-just how seen how the Dpctpr got into a family, and established adcpotothiß pro fessional popularity at Uncle Abraham’s.. .He had done a fair day’s work for a beginner, he thought,jisTie mounted his horse to wonid his way leisurely homewards; buthe,had some thing, to learn on this subject of acquiring prac tice ’which : hie . three months’experience.'of « early strugglea”,had not yet thrust into his reflections. Slugsburg and uncle Abraham’s connections would do well enough, If they did . himno harm elsewhere. The patronage ofa sot is so much capital, but there are parties every where, and they have prejudices, which the young candidate for the cure of bodies through out tho'distrlct will fbel, if ho is slow to appre hend and evade them. .. If he commits or seems to commit himself too decidedly, to one'set; be wlllhave some trouble in annoxing any more of the territory, upon which ho has squatted to his professional domain, . ... Our, young frietid had never thought of those things, or of any thing else that concerned his prosperity; except so far as a reasonably fair preparation to deserve success might.command it. He had the good luck to get a good lesson on his way home, and from the most unex pected quarter. ■ , . - As he was riding along, wasting thought in thinklbg, under the direetion of a vagrant fan cy, be war. suddenly pulled up as ho was cross ing the creck, by a very lazy-toned salutation from Jim Devlin, one of the rowdies of the group,that we had a glance at as they lay un der the service-tree in tho lane, during the. morning service a week or two ago. Jim was the manliest scamp of the set, and something better worth the stndy than a vol ume, of metaphysics, to' any one,: capable of understanding him. He was sitting on tho up per rail of the worm-feneo making a willow whistle for young Jim—a diamond edition of himself, about five years old, who was all the time perellod upon the foot-log fishing formin nles.with'a piu-liook. The two had been de scrlbed.by one of the old one’s cronies, very, happily, as old Jim and now Jim; and every body who'khewthe subjects, was delighted With the nice, distinction without a difference which ho so fairly hit. Old Jim, who by-the-by, was not a minute over thirty, was as well,- made, bodily, as any man need he; either for use or beauty, and he hadbrains enough to work both to good profit; bufiPthia own phrase, there Was nothing going on tliatihe cared much about, and the small farm which his father had givoahim, rent free, to nille himself on When ho married ten years befbre; .which kept him as poor as Job’s turkey, had held him also, in a sort of fast-and-loose way, from turning his hand to any thingbetter. So ho had, for,a decade ofh;s young manhood, done half-days .work negligently, gone hunting, attended vendues, swapped horses, anff edited tho gossip oftbc country, very little' to the profit.or pleasure of himself or any. body elso, In the absolute leisure df such' occupat ion and such jclloneaSj hb wtta driven into the company in which, wo first' found him, and which he rather likedTittt did not at all respect. 110 had been.a wSdowernow for about a year, and as usual with such jpeople. when anything happens to throw theiu bift of their - calcula : tions—which means breakihg hp their habitual reliances—he had aome thoughts of moving to Ohio."-1 But Ms, children were in. the way, very helpless and very unmtaagahle, and all that his, wife’s family oould do forhis relief, was to de tail. onif df his sisters-ih-lkw to serve as house-' keeperfq'tjilnt, and fostefmotherfo'them. In this way liohadheen getting alongfor a twolye-, - month;<tolerahlyivell/xed as;be would say, and as every body else would pay Who knew hishahitSiTjffMßia difference;in tile meanlnj; of that he. meant., provided for, and: thewmaint fastened where he Was, a--. . jyhenjim was under twenty he was the com panion of all the dashing, young Modes of. .the. neighborhood, and ftilly at par among them; Butsome of them had gOt married and'gone to work soberly ami grown stnpid; sonie of them had gvown industrious and mean; some of thorn had gone to Ohio, and some to the d—l - the originals only- remained , tq him—John Brooks—who was a very skilful and indus trious laborer, without a trade. Ho worked hard all the year round at all sorts of season able jobs, such as digging wells, tending ma- Bons, building fence, threshing with the flail, rough-hewing timber, mowing, reaping, pitch ing hay and grain; (ft all of which be was first rate, and at cradling wheat and rye he was tho best hand in the country. John always worked by the day,, every day of tho week, and gave his Sundays to Jim and moderate joli ty. His‘family was already large, his wife pickly,and,if Johhhadmot been hgood fel low and a .wit, he would not have been as hap py and well-behaved as ho was. .Johndid not earn over a hundred and seventy-five dollars a year—his .wife earned : nothißg; arid they had about six children on their hands. He owned neither house or land, or any thing else, except the scantiest and cheapest supply of household -frirniture; a milk, cow and a couple of pigs. He might have taken all this together as a pretty hard lot, hut ho did’nt. Ido’htknow who it was that ho envied, and I am quite sure that ho felt as much respect for himself as ho did for any body, else, and fob good reasons; for, ; wherever he. went, his reputation was a com fortable one. '. - ; Jini is still'sitting on’the fence, and his abridgement is still fishing for a nibble; hut they are in no hurry, and can wait till I have presented our jolly laborer at five shillings a day, as he exibited himself to mo on two of the occasions which brought him out a litlle. Wo were all together ono day at the neigh boring church, gettingup the first temperance society instituted in the valley. The I’resby .terian parson, squiroDlckoy,onooi his elders, a prosperous and verypropermun,two'or three farmers, frightened at tl;o prospect of having their tipple stopped, or discredited, and their field-hands in a rumpus iftho restriction should be attempted; the young Doctor, fifty women, twoboys,,and Jim Devlin and John Brooks, constituted the congregation. - - The preacher had read Doctor Beecher’s six discourses, and thought it was time to do something; and his principal men in tho chnrch felt that It was necessary to moderate the move ment, for-fear, of consequences which they anxiously appreliendbd. Thoy must patronize the movoment, and, they must mollify it; nnd Jim and John wore there for tho express pur pose of seeing how they would do it;.for those two fellows understood those dignitaries a lit tle better than any body else in tho whole cbnntry did, and thoy were sure of some, fun for themselves in witnessing and helping the worry of the compromise. After the constitution Was read, squire Dickey gavo us to understand that he was habitually temperate, and had no objection for himselfto any practicable measure which would rid the country of tho evil of cxcessiyo drinking; ho would therefore willingly sign the plodgo lilm self, hut for the sake of others who must be brought into the measure, he would suggest, that it be so amended as to allow of giving liquor, to laborers in the employment of the signers, who, he was sure, could not be got to work if it were refused to them. The preach er was fairly shut up by this' proposition which so nicely cut the heart and knocked the brains put of the pledge., One of the farmers thought it hot bestto be rash in reforms, and another was ofthe opinion that it was always best to bajmoderato,' The Doctor grew indignant and pitched into them accordingly, till they were fairly enraged, and the woman were confused and frightened.' The preacher, whose business it was to oil tho binges, andgot the thing going some way or other, was about rising to agree with all parties and reconcile them, when John pulled himself up, and all. eyes were turned upon him, “ Mr. Chairman,” said John, «I reckon I‘ ought to take no partin tMs meeting. I- came, only to see what was going .on, and I know how to behave myself wherever I am j .bni I liave a right to answer squire Dickey. He drinks more than Ido, and he is as fond of treating people as they are of taking it from him. It’s the best way ho knows of for makin;: people welcome to his house, or working we] in Tiis fields. Ho hos’nt .got any more good senso than the law allows him, (this flno figure of speech ia an illusion to the minimum of'an insolvent’s household stuff exempt from execn tion,)and he could’nt get himself along com fortably, if he bad to pass in company for what he is. Worth, without tbo.help of afewflpenny bits, spent in whiskey to make him look big and liberal; and what’s more of it, he has a fair chance next full for tho Sheriffalty, and the plcdgo-would be mighty inconvenient to him, ifhehas to run against Tom Parker. He might go against the. pledge for all. mo, if ho would' put it on the right ground. If ho would only confess judgment, I’d bo willing for one, to let him take, the stay (of execution) till it ’ll he eaiser to go the temperance figure than to holdback. But I’m not going to sit here and bo shy, while ho tries to. throw tho blame on the, werkies. I’m one of them, and I tell him that I can better do without his liquor than he can do without my vote.” ' “There, there, John,” interposed. Jim. “ You’ve skinned your possum, and the next out will spoil the bide. Have a little mercy, than, I’m getting ashamed of you!” J ohn’s other affair was in this wise: I was at a vendue one day a little afrcr'harvcst, standing with a group of farmers who were near neigh bors, good friends, the’most respectablo men in the valley, and bod the largest harvests to put in., This ycartho wheat ' had ripened all over tho country at once, apd tho press for hands to savo tho crop had been ono of tho se verest. John Brooks, had been in great de mand. . Ono of these farmers happened to spy John coming across the field toward us. “There comes that scamp Brooks,” said he, “He promised to cradle wheat for mo all through harvest, and ho never came near mo.” “Why,” said another “he promised mo tbithftilly and disappointed mo just as badly.” “ Confound the rascal,” said tho third, “ ho served me ex actly the same way. Let us attack him, and see what ho can say for himself.” To get him fairly at bay, wo opened a ring for him, and ono of them calling to him, said, “See hero, John, come hero.” “ ’Morning, gentlemen,” said John, walking right into fho.uoose, « what’s up ?” Mr. A—“ John, did’nt you promise me pos itively to cradle for me oil tho Monday that I began to cut. my wheat ?” u Yes,” said John without tho least embar rassment. - Mr. Why, Jolm, you promised me for the very same day ?” “I did,” said John. ' ; Mr. C —“ And mo too, for the very same day. Oh, John!” John was cornorned, snrrotmdcd, caught; but woo to tho hounds that had gone in to tho hunt. ' "With a look that showed all that John had been garnering up for them for years, he gazed long and steadily enough at each of them, in turn, to : make them visibly uneasy; then beginning with Mr. A—, “You canto to mo on Saturday night, nnd asked me to cradle for you on the next Monday. I told you that I was engaged to George Graham tor that day, and all the week after. You answered that Graham conld got along witliont mo. I told you that I was engaged, and that was all I could say about it.- Then you went to coaxing and persuading, till I gave you the promise that you are now throw ing in my face. There is Graham on the porch; shall I call him to prove that I kept my en gagement fiiithftilly. with him?. I guess you’d rather, riot. But, do’nt go away now, for I Want yon to hear a little of your next neigh bor’s kindnqs and fair dealing. It will balance your own to Mr. Graham. ’ “ Mr. B—, when you came for mo, did’nt I tell you that I had half an hour before promised Mr. A—? The last time I saw you taking the sacrament together, I thought you were brethem as well as neighbors, and would do to each other as you would like to he dono by. Shall I remind you of what you said about Mr. A—not being as good a friend ofmlneasyou were, and telling mo how hard he talked about my impudence at tho temperance meeting 7 On, you’d ratner not. And Mr. C.—” Mr. o—“ Stop John j you have such a tongue in your head, you’re, fit to set the whole country to quarrelling. I do’nt mind what I said to get you to cradle for mo. Not much of anything, and nothing at all very earnest.” John. “ But X remember it well, and it was only too unnoighborly to both these friends of yours to repeat—don’t contradict me now, or I 'will have to settle you, once for all.” You see, gentlemen, you all three tried your best to make n liar and a slink of me, and! just thought I’d lot you lie down com fortably in the beds you had made for your solves. I kept fairly the only promise that I made fairly; you wero very 1 happy expecting me till the day came, and you have been en joying yourselves abusing me over since, I hear, but I rather think you have waked up the wrong passenger this time, and would bo very willing to hear the last of the joke as soon as possible.” Here Jim, who was nevermlssing when there ■Was any, mischief afloat, and had joined the group when he heard John cnllod to sco “ wliat was up,” broke in with a clincher i “Why, John, you’re ns b great a hypocrite hs oitlicr of them, and ail the, worse fur doing itin pare fun, while those gentlemen wero at least in carhfcst, andseriously intending to do the very best they'conld for t&emscives. John, you’re always making mo ashamed of yon. Come along: I’vo been waiting for you'- to Jlnish that gamo at horse-shoes.” >' 'We said,’hall aq hour ago,' that Jifh arrested the Doctor with a slow-and-easy salutation. It was something on this wise: “ Evening, Dec. —just coming from uncle Abram’s, arc you ? Most made np yonrmind to join the Methodists a-purpqse?”,. Hero ho tried the whistle, and looked at It as if it would’nt exactly do yeti The Doctor, to adjust himself for the expected confab, slewed his left leg round and sat in the Simula side-wise, with his back bowed in a very epy imitation-of Jim’s position on the fence, and replied drawllngly: Havon’t quite decided yet,—want- your advice, you know.” ] “ Well then, don’t—it wont pay,” said- Jim, > still busy with the whistle; and not in the least hlmihugged by the Doctor’s professed defer ence to his opinion, '« You see,” continued SA^uß&iV,"September ho, 1 “ they ain’t of much account, ' and it is’nt worthwhile for ycratnpifr hack your ears and butter yijui l head for them to swallow you.” Tho Doctor opened his eyes, i Jim was done with that subject. Ho tried the whistle; got a note out of it, shut up his knifo, changed his position a little, and resumed tho conversations 1 “ How’s tho old pensioner J” Doctor, “ There’s nothing tho matter with him but old ago and loneliness.” Jim* “I reckon. You tend very regular con sidering, and I like that. Can you do any tbiug, do you think, for Botsy Wingert 1 She’s a nice girl; and ft tan pity of her. She lived with me a while, and I want her to get well. I told Boctor S— a hit of my mind, tho other day at Harker’s vendue, about his neglecting of her, For I nevor saw a healthy young per- Bon get the dropsy from tho aguo, if they were rightly treated. It won’t be much trouble for you to give her good attention, and you aha’nt loose any thing by it.” Doctor. “Look here, Jhn, did you ever hear ofthe medical student of Doctor Kush who swallowed a glass frill of the black bile thrown up bya dying yellow-fever patient, to prove that the disease was not contagious ?” Jim. “Tlio mischief lie did!” Doctor. “ I don’t know. Won’t swear to it; but,” straightening himself up, “ I know that a man of tho right grit works in his pro fession for something else than pay. I’ll cure Betsy, on my own account, or, I’ll quit phy sic and turn secretary to a lime-kiln.” Jim looked as if ho had seen fire before, and know it from smoko, and was half disposed to look as earnest as ho really was, which, by-the by, would have been an act of desperation for him. He slid himself slowly down from Ills perch, shook himself up, yawned purposely, took another look at tho Doctor, which satis fied him, and calling to new Jim, “Haul in yoUr tacklo, old fellow, and take that,” pitch ing the perfected whistle to him, “and make tracks for home, you’vo fished enough for one Sunday,Vy Then turning to the Doctor, “You really think you’vo cured that girl from over the river, of the rheumatism. [Jim knew he had.] Was it after all, si real case of rheuma tism ? [Tlie scamp knew all about it.]” But the Doctor, if not a tactician, was at least a good imitator, and after the invariable trick of the gentleman before him, ho walked into the trap set for him, knowing that ho could not be ■ caught. ' ' Doctor. “ You were in my shop .(office was not the name for his half-druggery and half dormitory,) when she came to mo, and gavo it as your opinion that her wrist, was out of joint; it was that bad. She said thilt she had not been free from pain in it for three years, a minute while she was awoke, and dream’tof it while she was asleep. That is six weoks ago, and it iB as sound as the other wrist now.” Jim.' “Did you never do any thingforitbnt bandage the arm just as if it had been broke ?” Doctor. “ Not a thing, lam a mechanic, if I’m nothing else.” Jim. “That’s a fact. When you told the poor girl that when tho leaders and muscles were put quiet a whilo, tho thing would get well of itself, I began to think you’d either make a spoon or spoil a born before long, and it was either good luck or good guiding,' for she is as sound as a horse I believe. But, could you do any thing for that poor devil. Bob Alter —that’s another sort of a caso, ain’t it ?” . . Doctor. “The old Doctor describes it as a case of inflammatory rheumatism, and one of the very worst. Do you take any interest in liim 1 He’s a very had friend of mine, I be lieve.” Jim. Well ho is, for he’s not afraid of you.” Doctor. “Aha, is that the sort of stuff lie’s made of?” Jim. (very quietly,) “Yos, he’s an uncom mon nice mixture of slink, coward and bully. I used to lick him every now and then, when we were hoys, but it did no good. If ho had’nt been a sneak,, ho would not havo been so fat and sassy just yet. But he lias fooled his father-in-law, and got a-head fast. You ought to see him behind his counter trying to look respectable to the old Doctor, and old-fashion to, me, all at once, you know. It almost puts him out of joint. He’s terrible, when tho com pany is all right, on the temperance pcoplo; and he’s all right with them, too, for the blamed skunk has’nt tho heart to drink himself. Ila sells by the quart, because if he did’nt, somebody else would, nnd, get the profit.” Doctor. “I thought ho was an old friend of yours.” Jim. “Friend of mine I I’d like to see the man' lie ever was a friend to. It would bo good for sore eyes.’’ Doctor. “Wollthen, what about his rheuma tism?” v Jim, “Why, it you really think you could do any thing for him, I’ll make him send for you. I’d just like to do it any how, but lie’s rather too low to play tricks on. What do you think ?” Doctor. “ Jim, yon can behavo yourself? ra knowing and assuring nod for reply.] Well, this is tho fix ho is in; the doctors liave bled him, slaughter-house fashion, to reduce tho inflama tion; bis pulse got wiry and hard under it, which they mistook for vigor, and they went on bleeding away for tho symptoms which the bleeding itself produced, until tho devil’s to pay and no pitch hot—that’s tho wholo of it.” Jim. “By George, you’re right. Can you do any thing for him?” Doctor. “That depends upon whether I can Or not.” Jim. Ugh I don’t pu'ltho wool over my eyes. I want him cured. Will you act like it white man ought towards him ?” Doctor. “Lcthim sendfor mo, and you’ll see; and, if he'don’t—” Jim. “ But ho will. I’m going up there now.” Tlio Doctor resnmed his seat, and his home ward way, reflecting alter this fashion: “ So, this is tho leader of ali tho vagabonds of tho val ley, a general mischict maker, and generally un derstood to be good for nothing and wholly irreclaimable I But ho Ims a good word to say for the poor old pensioner, and for Betsy Win gart; ho watched the tamo girl with a genuino sympathetic interest, nnd would as lief pay mo her bill as spond tho amount at a scrub-race; and is even anxious for that curmudgeon, Bob Alter. Ho knows men, too; reads tliem like a book, and accommodates himself to the mis judging goody r good peoplo around him here, with ns proud composure as a Greek philosopher could feel. A strong built, big-brained, good looking follow, with a hearing faulty in noth ing hut its weli put-on recklessness; playing with tho antagonisms of society as provokingly as an Indian at the stake, but without bis spring of passion! What is tho wrong in the caso ? a dislocation; aye, that’s it. Jim must goto Ohio. Supply him with tho capital, tempt him with the objects that are on the level of bis best powers and aspirations, put Idm in tho con ditions, and he’ll answer the purpose. What a waste of human worth this mcagreness of things costs to society. Tho barn-yard fowls arc de .cidcdly of opinion that if Jim’s wings wore clip- Eed, and bis claws pared, lio might bo a useful Ird. Thoy arc tied down nnd held in now, and that is just what has mado him tlio bird that he is.” i The proof of tho proposition is in tlio facts of his after history. Ho did go to Ohio; got a quarter section, went to work with a will, was recognized for what ho was, and became what ho was intended for. Tlio deviltry of now Jim got a safe drift, and the Devlins are to-day In the front rank of progress in the country which they have so ably contributed to improve. If there is nothing of yellow-covor interest in these idlers with whom wo havo been concerned so long, it is because tliey Crave only a matter-of-fact portraiture at iny bands. There is the material tor a dozen novellcttos in ? hem; but there is a social and political philoso phy still richer 'in servlcablo interest than all noveldom can yield. I will do what I can to bring it to the surface; but tho reader must wait until twenty-five years shall havo wrought those changes in the condition of tho country whicli havo moulded tlicso materials into somo very unexpected forms of manhood. In my next, I shall bo seriously engaged with more serious subjects—the Gcrinan fann ers of our little valley. TO BE CONTINUED, iUcrrljmU toilers, T7IDWABD P. KELLY.
