A Sketch from Ileal pfe.
BY JANE WEAVER'
'What di you intend to do' said &.
ward Hanson to his brother Frederick,
as the orphan boy s sat together, about
two moths after the death of their lasi
parent. 'It is necessary far us to .act
rpecdily, for our money is nearly gone,
and it will nut do to starve,'
'What do you intend to do?' said
Fiedeiiek, who. though the elder teem
ed disposed to hear his brother's plans be
fore he announced his own.
'I shall look out for work of some
kind, and that, to d y. The truth if,
there is no choice. Dread we must havt
and wishing won't bring it: so we must
labor for it, as better persons have done
bui'uic us.
I don't see that,' said Frederic i.
'Father was a lawyer, and the first ol
his lamily who stooped to be even that,
lor all tlie rest ware geilemen and lived
on their estates, What would ha think
if he was all ve, to sue his sons hiring
out as day laborers, or even going be
hind a counter. No, I'll never stoop
to ihai I'll marvd first. 13m there's no
necessity fur such extremities,' added
Fiedeiiek, in a less vehement tone, 'lot
Mrs. Newton, you know, has invited
us there, and 1 shall accept the invita

exclaimed E Iward. indignantly. 'I am
ture, Frederick, you l)3Ve Mid when
the leittr came, that lhi old lady was
barely civil, and give the invialion
merely because die was our nearest rela

said of her by the censorious, if shts neg

'Yesithere is mi doubt that she would

he was weahhy and she only a sort o,
charily companion to mother. Faihei

the tables have turned it id but right she
should suppoil us.'
'I am to pi oiid to go,' said E Iward.

'And I.' retoried Frederick, 'am In

with a flu-bed cheek, 'when you ca

'I used to think you were in jest, when
you praised honest labor. I find my

Edward heaved s sigh. Hit own ri-jick learned accordingly, us lie was

lrom hi brother' plan; but he knew
words would b in vam: so he ouly tx
tended his hand and said,
'Well, do not let us part in anger. We
are the only surf ivms of our lamily
and though we lolluvv dilliienl rout in

mechanics, is a sad damper on your en
'husiastic notions. 1 am older than
you, and take my word for it you'n
repent of your bargain and follow ma It
dVrs. Newton'?.'
Frederick, accordingly, vvonl to Ma
Newton's; and Edward sought out v
place. He goon found a lespcctabl
nechanic, a bricklayer by trade, who a
;reed to take him as an apprentice, and
is live years ol hu minority remainad.
Edward was bound to Mr. Simpson foi
that lime. His superior education, and
lis chcerlul disposition soon made him
lotli respected and loved in his master.
lamily, and eveiy year increased the es
teem with which Mr. Simpson's regar
ded the young man. Mr. Simpson'-
business was a large and extensive on,
nd ivlward made l-imself so useful lv
his master by keeping accounts after hi
lay's work with the trowl was done,
hat he rapidly acquired a standing
which none of the other apprentices ob
tamed. These, at fi.si laughed at our
hero for laboring with the pen after hi-
1 iy a task was over, and would havt
persuaded him away to some placu of i
lle flnuement.v but Edwud replied,
'No, I prefer obliging Mr. Simpson.
vho is so kind to me. For cards, oi

'ieard litis, he saiil, 'Edwird is right

A LOVE STORY.
A young farmer loved, at ihe same lime

oough, loved both wiih aa nearly as possi-'-'
ihe same affection, and lliey both of
hem warmly loturned his passion. But
one of ihem showed for him aii almost

be the cause that at once with more deter
