to her intimate friend, Miss Vmey, as they
came out of church on'Sunday,

MrsJWaxwell- loved finoclotHea o quite as
much as anyother womah<of the 'rnhetecnth
century, and this is saying >tf< great'deal.—
Butthenher husbahdwas parlrinsonioust'and
though she loved ?.' ‘ihueh,
she loved money 'mo'M-^which,'w6 lafie r 'if,
amounts lo nothing rtioTaoiiess than-' mean-
ness.
Mri iWaswell waS-difermer and 1 well oJT la
theworld. The advent of the railroad in
his native town had turned things topsy-tur
vy in general, and the heads of the women
in particular—to use Mr. Wax welt's classical
language. Time tVaS when they Wefe con
tent to wear u straw bdnnet and a tallco gown
to meeting; but now they had (o rig out'{n
silks and Sating with pnd furbelows
and nil sorts of rigging attached to litem, for
all.the the woxldjust like a clown inn circus.
Sgch were Mr. Wpxwell’s views of the.social
influence of the railroad. ■
Society began, ip be a little “ slack,’’ folks
put on airs, and ; were so stuck up- that, you
couldn’t touch them with a leu foot pole..
Farmer Waxwell did not much like this
slate of things—it cost money on one hand,
and he did. not like to be thrown into the shade
on (he other. He was about the richest man
in the place; but ten dollar bonnets and thir
ty dollar cloaks were Abominations -that he
could not tolerate.. Mrs. Waxwell didn’t like
(o be out done in the mailer of dress, and
when she bought a new merino cloak the
previous season,,she had not a doubt but it
would be unsurpassed for two seasons,■ at
least. When hire. Burton came out with the
thirty dollar Velvet, she was as indignant as
the case demanded.
In the rise and progress of the village since
the. advent of the railroad, (wo new stores hnd
gone into operation, one of which was con
ducted by Mr, Burton, on enterprising young
man,from thp metropolis, who bad brought a
city wife and a great many city notions into
the place with him.
As with a great many who go from the city
to the country, be was exceedingly annoyed
by that disinteresied charatable attention to
other people’s business, which so extensively
prevails jn many rural districts. He kept
his affairs to himself, and this bothered and
perplexed gossips.- His wife had n way of
aitending to her own concerns-—she had been
brought up where people do nof. even know
their nexl door neighbor;' If she wanted a
new dress or a new bonnet, she never deemed
it necessary to consult the neighbors in re
gard to her obility to afford it, or about the
style and material.
Poor Mrs. Waxwell! her star began to de
cline when Mrs. Burton came to the village.
She was no longer the lender of the ton, and
her heart was bursting with envy. Though
she often received the kind offices of the
siore-keeper’s wife, both in sickness and in
health, she would willingly have crushed her.
That-new clonk wos the cap sheaf of the in
dignilics which she fancied had been heaped
upon her,and she determined that her uncon
scious rival should suffer the consequences of
her temerity.
Her first demonstration was upon her bus
band, whom she (bund no difficulty in 'con
vincing that Mr. Burton must be ruined by
the extravagance of his wife, and that unless
he immediately collected his debt, he would
certainly lose it.
As soon as she had done her washing on
Monday, she “ made some calls,” and em
braced the opportunity of commenting freely
upon that new cloak. The women told their
husbands that Mr. ‘ Burton would certainly
fail; and before three days had olapsed, there
as quite a fermenting in the place.
Nobody knew anything about Mr. Burton’s
affairs; he seemed to be doing a good busi
ness, though no one knew of his having any.

which he lived i ho had no; property, appn.

It was in the slate ofNew Hampshire;
and at the lime of which,! write, the,‘f grab

One morning, as Mr. Burton returned
from a Journey, to,.a neighboring..town, ,hs
found bis his stock attached on the'claim/of
Farmer Waxvyel), and all on account .of that
new cloak his wife had worn to meeting on
the preceding Sunday. llt .. r

that moment, and while he \yas considering'

the news that his goods had beeri .attached/

Mrs. Maxwell,
Miss Viney hpd some property of berptrn,
and it was ail in the hands of farmer Wax*
well, who had, on his own account, , inves
ted the greater part of it in railroad slock.
That ja what she meant. She would claim
the three thousand dollars her husband owed
her, and a cold chill passed through hef veins
as the thought struck her. Farmer Waxiyell
was rich in houses, lands and stock, all of
which yielded him a good income.; but he
had hot three thousand dollars in money,and
it might cost him some trouble to raise it.
“ Don’t cry, my dent, I ha*e enough due
me in Boston, to pay these debts ten times
over,” said Mr. Burton to his wife, who was
much alarmed by the storm which threatened
them.'
“ What will people think 7”
11 What will they think when 1 pay. them

hundred dollars,” |
Just ihen,*Miss Tiney entered the. bouse.
In a few words she explainedthe circOmslan-,
ccs which had led iq the sudden “ strike"
among iha creditors.
Mrs, Bulon, kind soul, shed a flood of
tears when she bear'd how cruel Mrs, Wax
well bad been—she whom she nursed with
all the tenderness’ of a mother, when her
frightened neighbors fled from the contagious,
disease. .
“ Never mind it, my dear. We mar ex
peci anything from a meddler,a gossip, a slan-.
derer,” said Mr. Burton. “ I must start for
Boston in the noon train.”
“ Allow me, Mr. Burton, to offer you the
money to discharge these liabilities. I Have
three thousand dollars in the hands of Mr.
Waxwell.”
“ You are very kind, and I accept your of
fer,” replied Mr. Burton, “ nnd next week.l
shall have the means of repaying you. I as
sure you I am worth at least -five thousand
dollars.”,
In proof of his assertion, he showed her
various notes, mortgage?, and certificates of
Stock. . „ , . , 4
“ I presume jf the people here knew that I
was not a bankrupt, they, would not have mo:

‘ Now and ihen a anow.flake touched with,
its' soft chill the jcheek of the listener, or
whjtened the angry redness of the poor boy’s
benumbed, bands. . ,
The woman was evidently, loth to.grant
the boy’s request, and the peculiar,look
stamped uppn bis, features would have sugr
gesied to any mind .an idea of depravity far
beyopd his years. But her woman’s heart
could nol resist.the sorrow in those large,
put by no means handsome grey eyes.
Come in, at any rale, till.the.good man
comes home. There, sit by the fire ; you
look/perishing with cold; nnd she drew a
chair .up to the warmest corner; then,sus
piciously glancing at the child nt lho corner
of her eyes, she continued setting the-table’
for supper. -
Presently came the tramp of heavy shoes;
tho door awnng open a quick jerk, and the
good man presented himself, wearied with
labor. i- 1 : ■ i ■
A took of intelligence passed between his
wife and hintself; fie 100 scanned the boy’s
face with an expression; but; nevertheless
made him come to (he table, and cnjbyed the
zest with which he dispatched his supper.
' Day after day passed, and yet the boy
begged to be kept only to-morrow, so the
good couple, after due consideration, conclu
ded that ns long as‘ he was docile, and work- ;
ed so hearlily, they would retain him. j
One day in the middle of (he winter, a
pefllaOjlpng occusiojnediio .'fide at,

his goods readily, as if he had beenwaited
for, ■ 1
You haven boy out there,splitting wood,
he said, pointing to the yard.
Yes. ‘ Do you know him 7
I have seen him, replied the pedlar, eva
sively.
Where? Who is he 7/ What is-he?
A jail bird! and the pedlar slung the pack
over his back ; that hoy, os young ns he is,
I saw in court myself, and heard his sen
tence—rten months. He’s a hard one.—
You’d do well to look after him. 1 ,
Oh ! there’s something hqrri.ble, in the
word jail—the poor.woman,trembled,ea.she
heard ihe word, and laid nway iier purcfm-;
sps( nor could she be easy until, she called
the boy in and assured him. that she knew
that dark parUofhis history.
Ashamed, distressed, the child hung down
his head; his cheeks seemed bursting with
the-hot blood ; his lips quivered -and dnguish
was painted as vividly upon his forehead as
if it'Was branded into his- flesh. - * 1 ‘ ■
Well, ha mutteredt'his whole (Yame-relax*'
ing, ad if a whole burden of grief or joy had
suddenly rolled off his mind, I may as well
goto ruin'at once—everybody hales and de
spises me—Nobody cares abbut me—l may
as well go to ruin-at once.' ‘
Tell me, said (he woman, who stood far
enough for flight, how carte you to gbso'
young to thal'dreadfur placc. Where was
your mother—where?
Oh ! exclaimed'the boy with a burst of
grief (hat was terrible to behold'. Oh, I hein'l

the village, with the warmest and most pro
fuse hospitality. A pari of his suite was
delegated to, accompany us in pur inspection
of the village and surrounding scenery. In

.Wo were told that the valley extended
nearly to the desert, but that a view of its
entrance was obscured by bills of sand. Of
(he origin of - this people I could learn but lit
tle reliable. They have a tradition, however,
which may, shed somaJighl upon the subject;
ell iathat their fathers comb from across lb
great waters; they were visiting, as was
their custom annually-, a neighboring, nation,
when they were driven by a galo from the
land. The gale'continued with terrific force
.for a number of days, driving them rapidly
to the east. After enduring’fear, hun'ger
and thirst, until they were driven to despair,
they came in sight of land. This (and proved
to he inhabited by savages, by whom they
were taken into (he interior and held as
slaves. Soon after,d plague appeared among
the Indians, which made fearful /ravages.—
The Indians Were made to believe that, it was
a judgment' upon them foe enslaving the
■white men, and they were accordingly liber
ated, Their fathers then established them-,
selves in tha valley which they now occupy.
They are evidently of, Asiatic-origin ,• in
stature they very much resemble the Hunga
rians, and speak, a language very similar,—
I have thought it probable,fhal they have
sprung from the nation mentioned hy Kossuth
as inhabiting the interior of Asia.”
