I will not loaf with sinners at th corner of the street, NorwUl I talk about myself to everyoneI meet ; I'll be theTjrood hoy of the school and study all the day.

About three years ago I waj one day sauntering in Union Square, and stoppel in at Signor Roma's stud'o. I found the young artist boaily at work upon the likesess of a young lady in craivms. I sn eraine intereated..- the aro w- ng face, not because of ita beauty for it was the face of a woman at least forty years old but because of the tender look of chastened sufferinf in the large. wide-open eyes. " Roma," I said, that ia a very attract ive face." "She has the loveliness of completed suffering ; her face is a history, not a calendar ; that ia the secret of her attract iveness. Her daughter is i living poem and picture." " Yoa speak like a love-. "I am one." " Does she know it?" " Who shall tell her t might as welt love some bright, particular star anil think to wed it, aa love acl hope to wed Pearl Bailey. She is Rrtiard Lofkin's heiress." He dropped his head, a.d went on with his work with nervous hate. Presently heard a rustle of sil', a 'sweet, low voice, and a little, ripiing, musical langh. Immediately Ron a was .at the door, and bowing low, ae held it open for the two ladies, who eEered. The elder was clothe, in black silk, j unrelieved by anything, -xceptins a lit- j Ue foam of rich, white, Ice, and the dull j glitter of some jet ornamota. The young er had on a dress in wtch pale violet and cream colors were eqaiaitely blend ed. The face of the elder was the face of one who ha 1 suffered nd conqiered ; the face of the younger s the face of a sinless, sorrow teas chiliLwho unsuspect ingly had grown into wmanhood. The mother's hair was nearljwhite, and the daughter's a pale, goiiierframe to a little oval picture of the lost ex.jtiiaite beauty. I did not wonder wba I saw the girl that Roma should feel utterly hopeless in regard to his love. Jat before their wiait was over I had chnged my optn- . YS .I . .1 ion. 1 noueea rean s bj giances at iuj handsome artist, and hf bright, respon sive blushes wbeneve Roma's lumi nous eyes met hers. I iw, in fact, that Pearl was just as mocha love as Roma j was. I became a visitor at Irs. Bailey's, bat beyond a certain menu and artistic sympathy oar acqnaintace did not ripen quickly. The winter aseed, and the summer sent one hitfcr and another thither. I went to the ?aside, Mrs. Bai ley and Pearl to the montains. But one morning, as stood in front of a large store balancig a little point about a silk dress in m mind, a gentle hand touched me, and i pleasant voice j eatd, " Good morning, a frankly and quietly f we had tn bat yesterday. It was Mrs. Bailey ; ye it was she, al though I might have psaed her twenty timet and not known hr, so greatly was she changed. Another astonisbmec awaited me. A handsome man, who tight have been fifty years of age, ceaid giving some directions to the coachnn.and approah ed us. Mrs. Bailey intriuced him to me aa " Mr. Bailey, my hutand, and then, with a cordial invitatio to call on them she passed down the st and into the waiting carriage. I suffered two or thre days to elapse, and then went to calbn Mrs. Bailey. It was a cold, wet da) but Pearl and Roma, were making st shine for them selves in the usual si tag- parlor, and 1 was asked by a servantto see Mrs. Bai ley in her own room. I do not know whafinfiaenca of the dreary day, or of the err room, or of her own mind, ruled her, ut she was evi dently inclined for coidential conver sation, and from one tie to another, we fell gradualiy into tha predisposing to personal matters. I v scarceij aston- Uhed when, after some preliminary remarks, she told me her story. She aid : " I was born ia Boston, of an old and rich family. I do not remember asy mother, and my father died while I was very young, leaving me and ny fortune to the care of aiy half-brother, Richard Left in. He strove to be both a Cither and broth er to me. " "We loved each other dearly, and nothing darkeved oar anVcticm until I met and loved Philip Bailey. Yoa see how handsome he is now , judge, then, what he was twenty-four years ago, and that he was extravagant did not alarm me. " But we were no sooner married than trouble began. It was my fault ; I was exacting to a ridiculous degree, jealous of every moment of Philip's time, and would not suffer him to be absent from my side an lionr in peace. Love soon frets at such authoritative restraint ; quar rels and reconciliations followed each other quickly, and then alas ! alas ! quarrels when we made no apologies, and which were not followed by reconcilia tions. " The home which we had furnished with some promises of a happy and a peaceful life became a scene of constant bickering, recriminations, tears and com plaints. All this began ia such little things that I am ashamed to recall them, but they opened a wide door for far worse ones. " Children came to us a beantiful boy and a pretty, bright girl. Philip was very fond anil proud of them, and strove hard to atone for his neglect Bat instead of accepting the present love, I was contin ually poisoning the happiest hour by re grets for the ones whom he had wantonly wasted, land by donbta of his future in tentions. " Then money began to fail ; we be came embarrassed, and my brother refus ed us all further help. When this took place there was a most bitter quarrel. I went further. I paased my brother on the street, an.l forbade the little children, who loved him so dearly, to spef k to him. At the end of five years we had to give up housekeeping and board. In another year we found it impossible any longer to preserve even the outward semLLun.-e of oar former estate, and Philip said we must go to New York. " We left Boston clandestinely ; no one wished us ' God spe :d and my brother was still unreconciled. The little money we had soon evaporated in boarding houses ; we passed from one to another, always sinking a little lower, until at length a day came when we had neither money nor home. " I sat gloomily down in tearless, sulk ing indifference, and scarcely heeded either the crying of mytchildren or the reoroaches and rjromises of njr buaband For he vowed, even then, that he would abandon all his evil ways and work so hard, if I could trust him once more. I can see him yet as he stood humbly be fore me. I just raised my eye, aid glanced scornfully and incredu!oa!y at him. He went angrily oat, and did not re turn. Late at night a note was brought me. It was Philip's last word of regret and farewell. He begged my forgive ness ' for hia share of our mistaken life, and for the rest, he hoped I would go back to my brother Richard, to whom he had written in mv behalf.' " That was all. I wa? really ill now fell from one loxgfainf into another, and, in the midst of my anguish, Pearl came wailing into the world. For a long time I was quite dependent on the pity aa l charity of my poor neighbors ; and whea at length I waa able to rise and look the world ia the face again, I scarcely knew which way to turn. "After many weary days I found a position as under music teacher in a thir i rate school. I only got a bare pittance for si x hoars' labor a day, and had to gi ve that up whea little Phil, and R-a took the scarlet fever." And they died 7" I asked. "Both, died within twelve honrs of each other, and even little Pearl was Ion ill. In all those long hoars, whea I stood thinking and watching between two worlds, you may be sure my sins of every kindjwere Drought to my remembrance. One spring night I waa taking Pearl a walk up Broadway, in order to let her see the bright lights and gay shop windows. Suddenly a gentleman stepped before me, and, laying his hand upon my shoul der, cried out : "Margaret! Margaret !" " It waa my brother Richard. Fie bad come to New York immediately on re ceiving Philip's last letter; but Philip had either forgotten to pot my address in it, or had supposed I would go to Bos ton at orce. He did not Sad me, though, he had looked long and spent much mon ey in seeking me. He had then return ed to Boston, soaght me there, and, ail ing also, he had come back to New York. " )' , i " Well, I never again knew what it was to have an nngratified want, or to miss a loving care for every hoar. I hope and believe that I valued these blessings now at their true worth. Richard and I spent many happy years together, and f ir many of them made every erf )tt to trace my lost husband. "So Pearl grew to womanhood, ami we were happy. Cn her seventeenth birth Jav we determined . to Jhave t ear pictures painted, and a cRance remark sent as to Signor Roma's studio, where I also met yoa. One day. just as we were leaving the city, we called there to ask him to visit as daring the summer. Ha was busy on a historical painting, but as we entereddisinisaed his model and pat aside his brashes. The model took his hat sadly op, bow ed to Roma, and advanced to the door. As he passed us he glanced at Pearl, and, being detected, made a movement of apology and went on. It was enough I know him. With a rapid movement I placed myself before the door, and stretching out my arms, cried oat, pas sionately : M Philip ! dear Philip, forgive me T " Roma, with delicate divination and tact, withdrew Pearl to aa inner painting room, and there: and so, we met and knew each other again." " He had suffered, aim V "Who can tell how much? he had been in California ; he had beea rich, and become poor ; he had gained acoch ( TT 1 1 ami loot everything ; be had been in captivity to Indians, and bad been ship wrecked; he bad known tbs exttvnes of poverty and sickness.

In a crowd of a half dozea men stand ing in front of a well-known saloon yes terday waa a man known to the fraterni ty aa a "larky one" in the spcrting class. He hail in former years raked in many a jack pot in this eity, and was one of the few who became rich by ssmbiing. Speaking of the city before gambling was broken np, the man, recently returned said. "Let me tell yoa a good story of (you all know who I mean'. Well, for nine years we were partners. Every trick that he turned I was in with, and if I cade a winning he shared it, I never could tell what broke our combination, but one morning after we had counted f!W0, after an all-night play, he said : 'I have played my last card and turned my last card. Suckers are plenty and money seems to mm easy. I have a few dol lars and with it I am going to lead a new life.' I was shocked and thought I was being guyed, but not so : he meant just what he said and so ref jrmed, but before we parted my partner said to me : 'We may both live ninny years and I will never forgot the gl times we have had together. I am going to quit gambling ; you are not, but whether yiu do or not. if yoa ever play a stack of bluas think of me, and yoa win bury naif of them u live on." "That was nearly five years a.p. Now, ther, comes my story. Only a short time ago I heard of my former partner coc ducticg a religious meeting in the tow a where I 'as, and I quit a good game ji-t to go and sew him. Ue did not know I waa in a thousand miles of bim. Before- j going to the church I took a blue chip and marked not only his initials but mine on it I went to church and was seated about half way down the aisle. There was singing and several short speeches, but I began to feel that I was ia the wroiu? xiew. bertse I dill not see rav former partner. The choir sang 'Holii tha Fort,' and just as I was about to lea ve ra former partner appeared and made a. tew remarks, and then asked the congre gation to eontribnte as the ch iir sang. Two mea whom I knew very well, anil have beaten oat of many a dollar, passed the baskets. When one came ta ue I threw in my blue check, and smiled ia my aleeve when I tiiocght cf what my former partner would think when he saw it I will never go again where he is. far when the money was poared out on the table he stepped to the edge of the pal pit and said : "'I hold in my hand a blue chip. It's worth t-"0- It's as good aa gold, for the man who put it ia has endorsed it with his name. I've held many a one with him, and he has owed me large sums of money, and I know tiat this check will be redeemed.' That was all he said ; I took my hat aad went to the door and found aa usher. I gave him two tens and a five for good measure and told him to give my kind reganls to my frien-i and former partner. I don't play any more jokes on reformed gamblers." Loutfaile Comtnernnl. The Drummer's Trick. Every boy of us in the village- knew Uncle Jerry Crawford. He was a dried np old man, and never seemed to get any older, although always complaining The fjrm of salutation wis invariably this: "Hello, Uncle Jerry V "Yass ya.'' "How yoa feeling?" "Wretched, wretched, thank ye." I've heard that at least one thousand times, and never knew a deviation but once. A drummer who used to come np occasionally from St Louis f t on to it, and one day when a dozen of as sit on the steps of the drug store Vncle Jerry was seen coming up the streef. "Lsn't that old Crawforl V asked the drummer, aa he shaded his eyes with his hand. "Yes." "He's the man that always replies that he's pretty well, praise rod 7" "Ob, no.

As Chris-mas customs were frr a long tiaie a b! miing of heathen rites and Christian festival, so, too, we find many of the yew Year's doinirs of wr fore fathers w.-re but remnants of bygone cn.totns of various nations. The Jews, Chinese, Romans, and M Lamraedars, although differing as ta the time from which they reckoned the com mencement of the year, all regarded it as a day of especial interest says Abbott : "The old Ivjniaa year begun ia March, and on tha first day of the year the fes tival Aaclia was celebrated, when the Sal;;, or priests of Mars, carried the sa cred sirel i ia procession through the eity, and the people spent the day in feasting ard rejoicing. The same sacred ness waa attached to the first day of the year after the chanze took place in the Roman calender, which made January the comiaeacing month, instead of JIarch." P'.iny tells us that on the first day of January people wished each other health and prosperity and sent presents to each other. It was accounted a public holi day, and aames were celebrated in the Campus y'artius. The people pive them selves np to riotous excess and various kin-Is of 1 eathen superstition. It was to offer a counter influence, and to protect Christian jtrainst its coougicos debauch ery and j-uperstition, that Christian as semblies were at last held on the first day of JxTuary. The ear'y disciples strove to exhibit in their life the contrast between the Christ ian ard tfce heathen temper, to substitute alms for New Year's gifts, readings from Scripture for merrv snr.gs, and fasts fur riotous fe-.tsting. This principle waa grad ually adopted in the practice of the West ern Chart h ; ami three J.iys of penitence and fasti ;ig wer3 opposed to the paan celebration of January, until the time of Christ's b.rth beinz designated, when the festival .if Ciirst's circtimcisioa was transferred to t'lis season.

It is sacred to the God of Wisdom, to whom they sacrifice male kid and wild deer, while they celebrate with iilurmr.ations and general rt joiiin-i". Says one: "The Chinese bezia their year about the vernal equinox, and the festival observed on the occasion is one of the most splendid of their religions fi'itsts. All the peop-'e, including the E.nperor. n;in;e in free and unrestrained intercourse, and anite ia thanksgiving for inerr.H3 received, as well as in prayers for a i;n;a! season aad an abundant crop. In Japaa the day ia spent ia feasting aud visiting." Among the ancient Persians prisoners were liberated an.l Senders fcrven. and thus the Persian New Year soae ehat resembled the s&bbatioal year of tfce Jews. "The Feast of Trumpets" is another ceremony kept ia continuance by many, especially the Jews, and thocht appropriate for the beginning cf their New Year. The old Romans considered it peculiar ly lucky to begin any new enterprise or to enter upon any new office upon New Year's Par. All the mechanics began something of their art or trade, and men of letters did the ame as to book, poem, etc. And the consuls, though chosen before, took their chairs and entered up on their duties this day. After the 2ov ernment was ia the hands of the emper ors, the consuls, all in new clothes, marched oa New Yew Yeivr's E'ay to the Capitol, attended by a cro'vd, where two white bulls, never lefore yoked, wre sacrificed to Jupiter Capitolinus. A great ileal of incense and other perfumes was spent in the temple. The flamens, to gether with the cogsuIs. daring the relig ious solemnity, offered their vows for the prosperity of the empire ; and the em peror, having taken the oath of aiieiri-an.-e and confirmed all public acts done by him drrring the preceding year, fes tivities took place araong all clasaes, and lasted several days. It was a time of nnivers.,1 r-joicintr. when presents were exchanced, and ail di Jorences were rec onciled. Tae Druid also sacrificed two white bulls, and at thesiime time the ceremony of cuttiig the mistleto wm performed. Une of the priests, clothed in white, mounted the tree and cut the miut'etce with a knife of gold, which was received by another rriest standing oa the ground j in his white robe. The sacrifice was ! i1 then performed, and prayers wereorfered j to rod 'o send a bleseing upon bis own j J gift Tie p.lant thus irutbered was scp- ! psflf-il to oestow lerrnry upon man and I beast, and to be a specific against all sorts ! : of po'son.
