It is the habit of many persons to take a look under the bed ' before retiring for the night. Mrs. Evergreen, my beloved wife, indulges, if indulgence it may be called, in this peculiar practice. I do not object to it in the leant so long as she does not enforce the performance upon myself;, but when as ; nm2tiaies the cise. she forgets it until she ha put out the light and erweoficcd her self under the comforter, then it is hard that I, who ain not troubled with nervous appre heosiveuess, bhnuld have to get out in the coldand do it for her.. I have often remark ed to Mrs. Evergreen, when I have seen her prying under the bed, that it was a silly hab it, ana that the sooi:er she gave it up the better. To this gentle admonition my better-half invariably rejoins : "La, Evergreen ! what harm does it do ? It's a kind of satisfaction to know that no body's under there, and' then I don't think of such a horrible thing after I'm in bed." "I think, my dear, you might just as well pursue your investigations further and look into the bureau drawers and the clothes laket." "Evergreen," she will rejoin, "don't mention the idea, or I shall certainly do so. t'ouie to think of it a man could very easi ly get into the clothes-basket !" 'Certainly he could, my dear, quite as easily as Falstaff. You should certainly in clude the clothes-basket, and by the-by, w.' mng y vi ant lnrA- ur that as well?" . ' "Now, Evergreen, you're laughing at me. But I can't leave off the habit and I never will. It's a comfort for me to know that there's nothing wrong about it, and I don't see why you -should deprive me of it." So under the bed goes the candle, and no signs of humanity being discovered Mrs. Evergreen is able to repose in peace. But, as already observed, this precautionary act h sometimes forgottetv and I am myself obliged to rise, light the lamp, and report, l ve done it more frequently of late than is au'rcvaMe, and have intimated as much to Mrs. Evergreen. She says : "'Very well, Evergreen, I'll do it myself." But this procedure is almost as bad, for Fhe invariably lets the cold in on me both in petting out and getting in. If it were not for increasing. this mental idiosyncrasy on the part of Mrs. Evergreen, by, giving her some good reason to apprehend danger, I should relate to her what I am about to lay before the reader. In this narration, there fore, I ask the public most particularly to bear in mind tj?at Mrs- Evergreen is of a sensitive nature, rather apprehensive and slightly superstitious, and that what I have to say must under no circumstances be im parted to that lady. If for two-and-twenty years (that is the period of our wedded life, and happy years have they been) if, I say, I have for this long period refrained from imparting the matter to the beloved sharer of my sorrows, surely the public (which, as we know, always does keep a se cret) will keep mine. . AH young men, I suppose, have Jove af fairs before they eventnally fix their affec tions on the one who is to bless their lot in life. I know that I had, and I don't regret it. Regret it ? far from-it. Mrs. Ever green is not present, and therefore I have no hesitancy in saying that if I had my life to live over again I'd like to go through with the same sentimental experience, par ticularly if it was to be succeeded by lead ing to the hymenial altar the present Mrs. Evergreen. . I was not bad looking when I was in my twenties. I think I may. go farther, and confidently say that -''(Jus Evergreen ' was decided favorite among the girls of Oak ville, and I really believed that 1 couKI nave had. any of them for "the asking." As I before remarked, Mrs. Evergreen is not present, and I indulge my thoughts some what more freely than would otherwise be the case. I dow't thiok that I cared partic ularly for any of the girls of Oakville, how ever, and I might have kept my heart whole to this day had it not been , for the circum stance which I am about to relate. rred Evans, who had been- my chum at school, came to make me a visit at Oakville for a "day or two," as he saidV when he ; but he made it a week or two easily enough after I'd taken him about a little among the "young ladies." When that time hal expired Fred 6aid be really must Ki as he didn't know what his father and niother would think of his long4 absence; Jut it ended in his relieving their anxiety a letter and , sending for his trunks! knew how the matter was perfectly well, &ni that Belle Bronson had bewitched him at of his five senses. Fred tried to pot it 00 to the "country air and the quiet, which as benefitting his health, etc., but it was no use trying to deceive me, and I told him ?- Then he owned up frankly, and I prom Jd to help him all I could in the prosecu il.oa of his suit. ; I never thought Belle a Pti or that she would willingly distress any Piman being ; , but shehad a. way of looking " one s eyes as if to captivate them,for her mere personal amusement, at any rate she had a larger-share cf beaux than the other 1 girls, but all their attentions came to noth- ing. x leareu it niignt uts tsu hl'j. ich. u vans, : and warned him accordingly ; but i Fred said he'd "have her it he tried all his : life;" that ''without her life was naught to him ;" that "she was the only living being who had ever awakened an emotion in his breast, ' ' etc After that I had said no niorey but closely observed the lovers, and soon came to the conclusion that Fred was by no means disagreeable to her. Things went on in this way without any definite result until Fred deceived a sudden summons rromfj on account of his mother's illness. - When he came back to renew his visit he insisted up on staying at Oakville hotel rather than wear out his welcome at our house, and finding remonstrance unavailing, there he went. The landlord (honest old Downsbury I wonder if ,he yet lives) gave Fred, atmy suggestion, his best Wlroom, "No. 20" I am particular in mentioning the number. "He shall have No. 20,". said Downsbury. "Any friend of yours, Master Augustus, shall have the best I have to give as long as I am landlord." It was a pleasant room, looking out on the distant hills and the beautiful winding branch of the Kackwater ; but what cared Fred for scenery ? he was in the hands of a blind god, and could not even see as far as his nose, except in the di rection of Belle's cottage.- I used to go over to Fred's room and smoke my cigar, while he, poor wretch, expatiated on .his sufferings, doubts, and solicitudes. Did she love him ? that-was the question that dis turbed -every moment of his lite, a.id to which, with the closest reasoning, he could not bring himself a, satisfactory reply. Sometimes he thought a word or a sign set tled the point beyond a doubt in his favor ; at others he fancied he read a coolness and indifference in her eyes. In this condition of uncertainy he dared not press the ques tion lest a hasty step might bring him to grief. . - " At Fred's-earnest solicitation I promised to scund Belle as to her sentiments, if a favorable opportunity- presented itself, or at any rate to let her know, in an indirect way, that Fred was languishing in distress on her account and thus give hrjio excuse for un necessarily prolonging his "misery. It so happened, however, that my services were not called into requisition. Belle Bronson, because of the sudden arrival at her house of some country cousins, was obliged to give up her room her mother's cottage being a small one and to occupy for a single night a room at the hotel. We would cheerf ully have offered her guests accommodation at ' our house, but we were in the same predica ment. An agricultural fair in the viljage had brought many strangers into the" place, and our own guests were so numerous' that I had given np my room to two of them, and had intended asking Fred Evans to let me pass the night with him. For this purpose I went to the hotel at a late hour, and proceeded at once to Fred's room but to my surprise found no one there. I did not even notice that his trunks were gone, or suspect the fact which afterward became apparent, that "to oblige some lady guest for this uight only," as the landlord expressed it, Fred had consented to give up "No. 20" and occupy a 6mall room in the rear of the building. The gas being turned up I took a book to await his return, and hearing at last what appeared ' to be steps approaching the room, and supposing it to be Fred, in a momentary impulse to play a joke upon him I slipped under the bed, a large, and high one, intending to imitate a cat (of which animal I knew he' had a de testation) so soon as he enterad tlie room. The door opened, and I was on the point of indulging in ray ventriloquial faculty by fiving a long-drawn mieow, when from my iding place I beheld Belle Broftson take quiet possession of the apartment ! My astonishment was so great, and the sense of mortification, so intense, tlat I did not, as I should have done, make myself immediately known to her. Thus the op portunity for discovery and explanation was lost. I dared not move a hair, but hoped sincerely that some excuse . might take ner out of the room for a moment, and so facili tate may escape. She, however, locked the door, removed the key, and, as I knew by the sound, prepared to retire. Finally she kneeled down beside the bed. and clasping her hands and bowing her head (so fearfully near to mine that 1 eould hear the soft words in my very ear, ) she gffered up her evening prayer in a manner so full of feel ing, and with such sweet accents of woman ly tenderness and devotion, that I felt as if she was an angel bending over the vilest of mortals. The prayer went to my heart ; but one portion of it went through it and held it captive. Never shall I forget my feelings of surprise and my deep emotion as when I heard her utter these words: "Bless my dear mother, sisters, and friends j bless all around me, and, O God ! bless hinJ I love, Augustus Evergreen, and shower down thy mercies over him. . Amert" Ah, Augus tus," said my divinty to herself as she arose from her devotional attitude, "if you but knew that I earned your very name in my pravers, you would be less indifferent to me!" y If I breathed short before, after this my breath nearly deserted me entirely; and I verily thought that the beating of my heart would betray me. Belle, pure as an angel to me then, and white as a snow flake, pro ceeded to turn off the gas and get into bed. I felt her soft pressure over my head, and shrunk doser and. closer to the hard floor upon which I was extended. What thoughts rushed through my brain ! Above me lav a young and unsophisticated : girl wholly un conscious that the one she loved lay so close ly to her, and who had for the first time been made aware of her interest in him, by hearing words which she supposed went only to heaven 1 I knew then that the night must pass away, and the morning come, and that Belle must leave the apartment before 1 could venture to change my position. Belle had lain perfectly motionless for several minutes and was, I flattered myself, losing herself in sleep, when suddenly she exclaimed to herself, "There, I have' nt look ed under the bed 1" A horror ran through me ; all is lost ; what should I do ? Belle rose and I heard her feeling for the matches. She struck one and was moving toward the gas-burner, when the lucifer went out, leav ing all darkness again. Blessed relief ; but how brief I Again I heard her feeling for the matches and trying to light one after another, as they failed to ignite ; then an "Oh dear, there are no morel" escape from her lips. . "Safe !. safe !" whispered my soul to me, and I thanked God in silence for my deliverance. Belle groped back to the bed, but did not immediately get in ; she stop ped and lifted the curtains which hung around the bottom and cautiously passed her arm under and around as far as it could reach. I almost felt her fingers graze my face as I held myself fearfully and silently against the wall, too far, just too far for her reach. Apparently satisfied that no- danger was near her, she lay down in bed again and I counted her respirations till she was lost in slumber. As for inyseff, sleep was utterly out of the question. I never was so wide awake in my life. How I lay "upon that hard car- Eet and thought the night out ! thought of er, and her love for me ; thought of my self, and my love for her. Yes, I was con vinced from that moment that the hand of destiny. was a it, and that a benign and all wise 1'rovidence has seen fit in this extraor dinary way to open" my eyes to the path of happiness and peace. With morning light fresh fears came upon me lest" my unconcious room-mate might yet peer beneath the bed for robbers," be fore she left the room ; but mj fears were groundless. She rose and dressed expedi tiously, for she was to join her cousins at an early breakfast, and she had overslept her self. When at last she took the key, un locked the door, and departed. I lost no time in slipping out of my shameful place of concealment, and escaping from the hotel. On the stairs I met Fred coming out of his room, who exclaimed : "Why what's the matter with you, old fellow V- You look like the last days of an ill-spent life. And your coat, too why, it's all " over feather's and dust. Where Azt'e yon been?" - "Why, I slept slept out last night ; that's all Our hou.'e is full, andso I had to find quarters elsewhere. I'm just going home to dress." "I should say so, decidedly. I see it all, old fellow I You've been on a larkT and had to be put up in the watch house ; come now, own up and tell us all about it." "No lark at all, Fred; nothing of the kind, I assure you." ,'Vell, if not a larJc what kind of a bird was it t From the looks of the feathers I should say it was a jj'oow." " You1 re the goose, Fred. But, serious ly, I've a word to say to you of a most im portant nature. Be a man, Fred, and make lip your mind to hear something excessive ly disagreeable. , It must be told you sooner or later, and I may as well tell it now." "Good Heavens, Gus! how earnest you look at me; you did't mean to sav that that anything has happened to Belle Bron son?" . "Don't mention her name again. Fred, or think of her any more, for she'll never be anything to you. I have it from one who knows all about it, that she has long been attached to somebody else, and that somelwdy else means to marry her. There's no mistake about it ; so bear up and try your luck elsewhere." But Fred Evans was not to be discouraged by mere heresay. That very day he went to see Belle, determined to know his fate from her bwn lips. Soon after he left Oak ville, and.I did not see him again for several years, when, meeting him in town one day, I insisted on bringing him home with me and prpenting him to his old flame, Belle Bronson the present Mrs. Evergreen. ''Ah, Fred !" said he, after dinner, when ray wife and little Evergreens had left us to ourselves- "Ah, Fred, you served me a shabby trick when you allowed me to lose my heart to the girl you were all along in tending to marry yoursolf-a very shabby trick, one of which I never suspected you 1" So I had to tell hiui (in strict confidence, of course, as f tell you, reader,) all about the . bedroom affair at the Oakville Hotel, and , the love that grew out of it.
