THE DREAM OF CALEB ED2I0KDS.
Christianity, ind.-ed !'' sniil Mr. ;dmfiml,
as he looked over Iih boohs, in the I, (lie back j

'1 i i re is a liark frown tipnn thu brow ol

and mi in it... il:ty i;i his manner nf turtiit.y
over t he h aves before him, which spoke ol
Sfino bad debt tro'iblin his liiiud, and rob
bing him of his pood l-'inper.

little woman by ll.e lire, at a hose side u bus
ket of flcrkino,3 tobl of n larpe family, and a
cutiM ipleiit demand lor ftickcry.
"M.iUi i !'' echoed thii husband, "do tou
not kuotv Unit Welslord owes nit- four pounds,
ten and sixpence V
"Well, bo will pay, I suppose.''
' Not bo. The ponds wen; Mirelm-ei niort'
than-1 year ago, and 1 have uot had a penny
Jul."
What does ho Fay vihon you sco him T''
asked Mis. Kdnioiiils, ho evidently loved to
look lit I !jll lll oMit Mill'.
"Say ! lie does not say much to tr.e, I can
tell you. 1 told him not to worry tno with
his excuses, but to btinp his money ; and '.hat
he need not cross my door step again till he
cou'ii do that."
"1 ttm sorry for his v.ife," paid the little
stockinp mender, presciiily ; "she upjieais lo
be n truly pious woman."
"l'lous;" retorted her husband. "Yes,
and so is ho ; 'tis that dispusts mo. Kcli
p.ion, indeed ! nnd he owes me four pounds,
ten and bixpencc. 1 thotiuht t'lO liible said,
Owe no man u;ivthiuy.' Chnstiaiiitv, for
sooth!" Mr. Caleb Kdmo'.lds was a highly respecta
ble procer in llie town of Matlby in fact, a
mau of substance ; for biuiness had prosper
ed with him. Ho was industrious and obiip
inp : rising rally, working hard ; nnd thus
from small beginnings he had risen lo the
possession ol cnnsiderublu wealth. 13ul, al
though nn excellent man of bushier. Mr.
KdinomU was u very ordinary Chrisliun.--True,
he had hriun tho race, bill ho did not
toward tli maik. Alas, for the cares
ol this woi Id and the dceeitlulln.ss of riches !
And il is the characteristic of a Ion standard
of piety to bo harsh end censorious in our !
judgment of our fellow Christ inns ; so Mr. I
KJinouds, when he henvd of any delect ill t lir :
character of piidessors uiound liitn, was ul-j
ways tiio lii.-t lo cxcliiim, 'CLritlianity in
deed !" I
li not this too con.nu.n wiib ns all ? Ho I
we ni t, evi l! if we pivo no oxpnsMoti to our
thought, doubt und hesitate much more than
wo should doubt u nd hesitate, rogmdirg the
reality of the religion id our "Keady to halts"
and "Feeble minds?" 1 'o we not set up n
standard nf perfection for our fellows, which
were too lofty, in our view, us a stundurd for
ourselves? And uie we not too ready to ex
claim against the wanderings of others, oven
whilo iru turn a.-ido into tl.u fotbiddeu paths'?
Fei haps such thoughts ns these hud passed
through the mind of Mrs. Kdmonds us rhe
sat over her work ; for when fIic rose to leave
her basket for some more active household
dntv, she bent over her husband for a mo
ment and said genl ly, "Caleb, 1 do not like
to hearyoii say 'Chi i.-tianity, indeed !' ns you
say just now. f-upposo your fellow-Christians
were lo judge of you us harshly us you
of them ! You often say it," she continued
hastily; "you doubted John Watson's reli
gion yesterday, because bo lent money to
your rival ; und Thornton's, because hu oppo.
si s yo i in business ! nud you sliooU your
head about Miss Milwood's piety because she
urged with you ngainst total ubstiueuce!
Judge not that ye be not jadgod.' "
Long after his wil'o left hi in thess words
rang in Caleb's ears "Judge not !"
At lust, 88 ho sat in the twilight, between
slopping and w alking for business was very
dull, mid he could spuru half an hour for rest
a vision stole upon him, and be passed, in
imagination, rapidly through the scenes which
follow :
The first sceua was the drawing room of
the John Watson of whom Mrs. Kdmonds
hud spoken. A lady was inuking tea behind
a silver urn, and a gcutlemau her husband
sal besidu her.
"l'oor Thompson," said Mrs. Watson for
it Was she "1 trust he will succeed."
"He ahull, if by Cod' b!e6siugs, I can com
pass it."
"Ha is a very deserving yonng man," con
tinued tho lady; "the manner in which he bore
the loss of all hit property would win esteem,
even if he Lad no other claim."
Mr. Wutson did not reidy, big mind had
wandered to another branch of the subject.
"That Caleb Kdmonds," said at length. "I
am surprised at tbo ill reelings ho displays."
"Towards 'i'hoi utou ?"
"Yet ho it evidently annoyed at the open
ing of another shop so near hit own ; w here
at in the principal street of a town like this
he should have expected competition. Hti
siJes, lie hat made a little fortune, oml hat
nothing to fear ; yet be will not treat George
Tborutou with ordinary civility."
"1 thought It was relifiost man," tsid
Mn. Wa.ioo.

"He prrttii'1.1 to be," replied her husband,
"but 1 have no faith in a religion which brings
forth so litlle fruit."
I'oor Caleb ! his wiTo's words the Mas
ter's words nil sounded in his enrs as they
had never dono before, meeting with a re
sponsivo echo in his heart.
A ruin a change, and Mr. Kdmonds found
him?! ir beside u sickly looking woman, who,
leaning on her li'isband's iirtn, walked slowly
towards thu house of prayer. It was impos
sible to look without interest upon her pule
and un.iou9 face a face which had once
been beautiful ) and equally impossible to
disregurd tho careful tendemeFS with which
her steps were guided by the strong man at
her side. Their conversation, too, was wor
thy of remark they were speaking of the
Consolations of the (jopel.
"Who knows?" exclaimed tho invalid,
"perhupg theiu limy be words just suited to
our case this morning ! Words for the jmnr."
"l'oor us regards Mi world only, Mary."
Her eyes brightened us she looked tip
cheerfully". "Yes, rich in treasure tar mote
cosily than curth's gold. Cod help us to
look, up, und to trust Him lor the 'incut that
pel islieth not.' "
They walked on for a while, and then tho
wife said, mournfully. "1 sometimes leur that
it is priilu which makes me shrink' from meet
ing M r. Kdmonds. 1 itn shi ink liciii it. Oh,
if J could but tiuy him ?''
"We shall be able to (lo so soon, 1 hope,"
Paid Wcl-lord; "it has beeu n hard struggle,
Mary, staivalioii almost, but 1 think it is
nearly over."
"Ah, it was ull for mo ! I am eure Mi. K.l
monds would be patient, if he knew how
much you spent in medicines for me, uud how
lit lie work you have !''
"He is patient after n fashion; nnd we
have reason lo be thankful lor that ; still ho
has said some crushing things to ine harsh
things which hu may live to repent, things .
which made mo doubt his Christianity." !
"Nay," saiil Mrs. W els!, id gently, "J
would not jiid,!c him ; how many irfeoHH-Aent
things ire do ! '
"You are ritrht. may not lift my voice ;
alas, but litlle likeness to my Kurd is found 1
ill IM ."' !
Again the echoing voice thiiiled through I
the soul ol the listener luain he heard the I
words, "Judge not ! ' und as he dwelt upon!
them the vision slowly failed and lo'. ltniiuin !

the lesson of the dream was uot quite lost I
upon him, for lie awoke to a deeper spirit of j
Christian charity, a nobler self ib nial, u holi- 1
or humility, a nearer hketie-s to Jesus, lie
had been taught in that luiel tvvilipht inus.ug '
one of tho grand old lessons of the IJook of '

The fireside morning worship wap just on- !
dej ami Chillies Welt ford was about to po .'
forth to his daily toil, when n gentle knuck ut j
the door, spoko of a visitor ; how great was
tho sin prise of all v, hen Caleb Kdmcuds
entered. j
"You nre come, sir "
'T a:n coine," said the grocer, interrupting
him, "to express my hope Di.ityou uio not ,
under any concerned ubout the hllie amount
you owe me. Tuke your tune, my good, sir ;
take j iu timu "
The poor man's eyes wete filled with tears, ,
us grasping tho ouUtictcLio. hand he tried,
to speak h'.s thanks. .
"My wife," s .ml Mr. Kdmonds, turning to- ;
w ard.- M is. W elt fold, "put something into,
my hand, just us 1 h it, for you, ma'am." ,
And forth from his pockets camu tea, st.rgur,
biscuits, from thu good wife's ample store,
till Mary's eves loo liiiud with grateful ,
tears.
"And now," said the visitor kindly, "don't
forsake the shop ; gel your lillle parcels there
and pay jiift when it suiis you. l(y the way,
if u sovereign would be ol uny set v.ee to you, I
1 have one which will bum a hole in my j
pocket as the saying goes unless 1 give it
to somebody. And beloru they could reply,
ho had laid the coin upon thu table uud was ,
gone.
"Mary," said Mr. Welsfoid, Ut us thank
Uud lor these." !
They knelt, nnd ns he breathed forth his
heart's gratitude, bis wife wept tears of joy, .
aodovt u the III I In ones inui niered t ho uiuuii." 1
Lul Mr. Kdmonds did not stop at this ; il :
was to I. .in I bancs W cl-lord owed a situa
tion which soon uiier placed htm Car uboVu
the leach of want ; it was to him be owed a ,
host ol 'kindly deeds, which camo bl.o sun-
shine to his inmost soul.
We hasten on. Not alone in this regard '
was Caleb Kdmonds changed, for two o.iys .
alter this strange ilieum he Walked into his ,
riVi.l.s simp, shook hands, invited him to ill ink
tea ut his hull.- ', spoke pleasant ly about lio ,r
opposition, uud even lonicd as Ins letii , un nt
ut some future day, when bio new IllenJ would
have u better chance.
Anil from that tune the charity which "suf- ;
fereth long iifd is I,, to!, , noteasily ,rvokeil
thinketh no evil, benrelli all lhin-;s . .. veth

the following story, Hot however, w.tl.out some
regret on l.er p.ul or bis art f i r tho udvico
given : A hurd-wci king women I:.. I a drunk
en husband, who, when p.r.tu.lly sober, would
get the blues ai d endeavor to di stroy him
self by taking laudanum. Twice did the
wife usceitum that he hud swallowed the
poisonous drug, und twice did tho doctor
restore him. t'pon the second restoration, the
doctor addressed him ns follows : "You good
for not big scoundrel, you don't want tokill
yourself, you merely wuut lo annoy your wife
and me. If you want to kill yourself, why
don't you cut your throat uud put un end to
llie muller ?" Well away went the doctor
uud thought no more of his patient, until
some weeks utter hu was awakened from a
sound nap by the tinkling of his night bell,
ile put his bead out of the window and in
quired, "Whut's the matter?" Potior, be
has done it," wus the reply. "Done what?"
"John bus takeu your advice." "What ad
vice?" "Why you told him to cut his throat,
aud he bus done it, und he is uncommon dead

He bat since ceased giving such cutting
advice.

Postponing a Goobo.
Having business at Mobile some time since,
but being in no particular hurry to transact
it, I determined tj take passage in one of iho
packet ships that run between 'that city and
New York. She was culled the Hover, nnd
wus commanded by a shiitp litlle fellow, n
pari owner, nnd who was therefore interested
in making the trips ns profitable ns possible.
The passengers were not long in inukiug
this discovery, for its a geneiul thing, n meatier
table was never provided in the meanest of
third class hotels, or oven in a cheap New
i oi k oouruing House.
Il happened that during thu passage wo
were becalmed ono day upon a part of thu
coast which was known to be excellent, fish
ing ground ; uud llie enptain with u view, of
course, of saving a dollar or two, ordered the
ii to bring out their f'shing tuckle nnd try
their luck. This wus soon !om: nnd mn.
enough, a largo quantity of the tinny tribe j '"' Vly tevire, for in lit teen minutes nothing
were soon transferred from their nqtieou. 'lllt a skeleton remained of that much abused
abode to the deck of the ship, to tho infinite j fiu"1'-
satisfaction ol tlie passengers, whoanticipiittd, I '"My heyes !" was hU exclamation, when
for that day ut least, a pleasant change of ! '"' ''"'' completed the task ; "if that's a 'post

In the course of the morning the captain i P 'slpoiied every v.ei k The iln -sin', 'oweer
tot
ok occasion to enlarge upon Hip delicacy of
the lish caught in that locality, mid closed by
asking "W li.it say you to n fish dinner to
day, ladies and gentlemen ?" Kvcrybody said.
Oh, by all means! und so it whs arranged
that the bill of fare that day was to comprise
lish only.
Now, attached to tho ship was a negro
cook, a sleek, oily, and rather good looking
negro, who was called Centaur a name
which he obtained inconsequence of a curious
fancy he had of siltiug astride of tho bow
sprit whenever it blew hard, und fearlessly
retaining his position, no mutter how tnuilly
the vessel pitched und tos.-vd amidst the
turbulent waves. As this was somewhat
approximated to a daring act of horsemanship,
the name of Centaur wus considered lo be n
very appropriate one, und with which the
in pro was by tin means disph as.'d. Alter
the passongois bad agreed to the bsh dinner,
I chanced to be oil llie forecastle, uol far
Iroiu the galley, w hell the captain came for

"Aye, uje, fa!' replied the p rsouupe.
"Cook u large mess of li-ii to-dny tor the
cabin pussetig.'ia' dinner; and dye htur,
postpone that goose !"
fvich were the captain's directions, to which
the Cook replied "Ail right, si !"
Alter thu captains departure, poor Centaur
seemed to be greatly tumbled, and scratched
bis wool m the most vigorous and determined
manner. 1 overheard bun usking himself

"I'ostpuued de goose, tu, 'cordiu' to direc

requested Centaur to explain himself.
