Pisxellantous A MISSISSIPPI WIGHT. Our luime was on the Louisiana or western shore of the great river, and the mansion was a mile or more from the negro quarters of the large plan tation. My husband-was absent on business in New Orleans, and had.'not returned when the prolonged rains of the au tumn-began. As the rain-storm was a general one, extending through States' far to the' North, the Father of Waters began to rise with more than ordinary rapidity. From the upper porches and windows of the house I could plainly see the vast vnlume of yellow, water as it widened over the -opposite Alissis. , Bippi fiats, where there was no levee. The _quantities . 16f drift-wood coming down, and the-' peculiar way ill which ,the river seemed convex and clear of drift in the middle, while the apparent ly lower margins were thick with the spoils of the forest, shawed me - that it was still swelling to a higher rise, and was a veritable flood 'When the stream is falling , the such of the lower current draws the drift to the middle, and keeps the portion next the bank- quite clear. But at that time the main channel was only markedby - the smooth, waveless rush of the muddy tide, and the ear caught only that low growl of the-re lentless giant asking for its ocean bride I at once summoned every available person on the, estate, and in .de the de: tails to- build fires at intervals on our levee, so as to keep watch all night. Also directed the gangs , with spades and axes to be ready for any break on our front, or any gall - for aid-from neighboring plantations. Every pre caution seemed to, have been taken- which was necessary for nitfety. Low places had been elevated, washed places mended, and points where the current set with great power had been strength cited by felled timber. At - one point, just above the house, Which seemed to have keen the made ‘ , 9 great vater ' met the dcfiaut lash cy lers, and then course: This oiled by a doub ment and by timber Two days went by, and all seemed so secure that the night-fires and the watchers at. every quarter of a mile were discontinaed, and I felt serenely confident of are approval of my hus band, and that he would mill me " his brave little wife" for possessing nerve and judgment to manage a great plan tation in the face of the highest flood of many years. One of the planters, three miles above had not been so careful as we, and a small crevasse lmd.been, made on hie line. It was not dangerous, as it was on the side of a straight_shoot or cur rent of the river, and not in the face of one Still, we did what was usual, and sent a large force to prevent pos sible danger and inundation of some of our lands. That night there was a bright moonlight, and the most of the house servants had asked and received permission to attend a dance at " the quarters!' Thug it was that I went to bed with no one in the house save my old colored servant, who. had once been my nurse, and was now fifty years old. It is customary with us to give titleof affection to these faithful old servants, and we called her " Aunt Sarah." It must have - been about midnigh batl was awakened•by a harsh. grind 80,000 tone irig sound.

But it waS_too deep and, heavy for that; and then hp could not easily 110,11011 land with, the water so. high. • Then 1 began. to distinguish -a more gentle sound, like the Mill-subdued wash of water, or the soft 14 of a,tido upon the beach.

Every where around me the moonbeams glittered on the ripple of the yellow water, while trees, buildings and fences stood out of the shiny surface, and cast delicate shad ows upon it. Evermloud had pasded from heaven, 'and,tliperene blue, with its calm stars, was quiet and holy. The illumined water was beautiful, and it seemed so gentle and harmless that I only felt mortified' because my husband would know that the 'bad defeated his wife. The negFoea who were near at hand were crowding on the unbroken part of the levee, some mile above, and I could see their dark forms relieved against the glare of the fire they were building. As I saw the women and children and cattle, slowly moving up the brOad embankment to safer ground, I felt that no great loss was likely td occur, and so said to Aunt Sarah, who had silently joined me with a shawl. ~She looked at me a moment, and said, "You won't be scared!". " No," said I, "for I should rather like it if it were not for the loss to my 1: 1d) i d, and the wetting to you. How d get wet ?" She answered, " I went out wid a hoe when I see the 'ribber gitten up, but it come too strong, an' like to washed me away. I couldn't find de horn to blob for de quarter peoples."

She was silent for a little while, and then said, "My lamb, die is' no ere- Vases " die is a cut-of" "Are you dreaming 1" said I, with a laugh that was mixed with a vague terror. She pointed .fo the timbered land back of the Orden,. where I could see that the rippling water, of only two or three feet depth, that lay around the house changed to a deeper and more rapid curriut. -"Look at dem - trees leanin' ober," said she. "pare, two of 'em goes down." I felt my heart stand still, and my limbs tremble as I looked, and coin prehended the worst: On each side, of the • swift path of - the. w. ter the gi ant oaks, with their hoary heads of gray moss, were leaning together over the miLcurrent,_ andzas sbo _epate. two went down -with i splash.

Centuries' had passed—mould had covered the sand and mud 'on the raft. Oaks and" tall magnolias had tn . _ ken rent down as they grew up; and for half a century man had locked out the- annual flood_with - . huge bars of; earth; and, redeeming the virgin mould from nature, had built his home, and gathered that richer "golden fleece," than Jason dreamed of. -Now the au tocrat river claimed its ancient bed, - 11 its hoarse ro ma • to man.

"To prize up the porch floor an' make a raft, my precious. Dia .house will wash away by day-break" I saw that too, and hesitation and delay were over. My husband's val uable papers were first secured, and then clothing, money, plate, and jew elry. By the time I had begun , to roll up blankets Mint Sarah waa in warm, dry clothes," and I heard the crash, as her strong arm smote down doors' and window-blinda; and soon began.to cut and pry at thd long, narrow planks of the veranda floor. I brought an iron bar from the tool room on the first floor and by our united strength we over came the tenacious nails, and stripped up board after board. A few blows on the lower ceiling made a hole, and we dropped them through, where theylay almost on a level . with the water. I never knew before that I was so strong when excited, ,and the soreness and blistered hacds were not thought of till the next day. 'Still it, was my old nurse who thought o' ' every-thing, and talked to me in her queer way as if I was still her child. There were some large and massive,Froneli bedsteads iu the sleeping-rooms on the first 'floor, and by Or united strength we turned them edgeways and pushed. them• through the windows, that opened to the veranda floor. `Vhile'tho• stout Old woman arranged the loug - boards .across them, I was sent tothe store of farm implements - in the building, -- and told to bring every rope and plowline and ball of twine I could find. These were - abundant, and the boards were woven togetlAii like the bottom of a huge , basket, and laced to the sides and , ends . of bedsteads. Then wo tied strong cords for cables, and rolled them off into the water. They dipped down-And were wet, but, that did not matter, so they floated, again. We get the two aide and side and securely fas tened together'; then doors 'and window shutters were ••laid im: or, tied up for sides; and finally cotton mattresses were put on to keeplrs above the wa ter.

We could hear the crash as the chimneys tore out of. the timbers and sank, and then it floated away, slanting in the water, and little to be seen but the rent roof. , Once or twice it grounded, or' caught on snags in the bottom, and then hurried down out of sight. The power of the water was making fierce tugs at our hempen rope, and it was soon broken. Two or three times we slowly rotated in the side eddy, and then, as if caught by some unseen hand, we shot out into mid stream. That was well for us, es we &Voided the falling timber , of the still widening banks, and also the worst of the, hurrying drift. Steam would not have taken us faster, and in less than an hour, we, two women on a raft, were out on the broad bosom of the Ivlississippi. The night was over, but not the per il. As our raft was buoyant we were only shaken, but not sucked down by the whirlpools. We had lights to' prevent the danger of being ran over by steamboats at night, and on that great highway were sure of being soon picked up There were barns, frag ments of fences, and sometimes mills and - small houses floating down ; but it was noon before we saw any_ human being. Theti)it fine boat came breast ing the current, and while we were half a mile away, in the dead water near a swamp, they saw our table cloth on a cane, which was a signal. They took us for n"egroes, and, bailing us as such, bade us take care of our selves, 'but made no pause. Sick enough at heart were we as the white. jets .1 her steam escapes faded out of fight: up the stream There was a fair prospect of floating all night near enough the swamp for snakes and wild cats to swim to us, or of hurrying down the current to unseen perils One more boat passed us, and seemed not to see our signal against the back ground of gray moss. - 'l* cried like a baby, and Aunt Sarah tried to console me. was nearly night when a great steamer passed up on the other side, but the people-seemed to see us. eSud denly the; roar of her whistle came across the mile of flood, and She slowly rounded toward us like a huge-white swan. She had to follow us a little down stream, but when salvation wee sure I must have fainted. I think I was a little, conscious of the jar as we touched her sides, and Of being lifted by strong arms. The first I heard was a well-known and .loped voice, saying, ,c . ydar.y, my own Wife, don't you know me ?" Faithful Sarah was dancingfor joy, and telling every - body of the providence which made the two -boats pass by, but - stopped the one which held-my anlos husband. That was ears ago. Aunt Sarah received her freedom, and that of her family )but has never left Me. She is never more pleased than when she can gather children or grown people to listen to the marvels of a Mississippi night. WILLOW WARE • It is a surprising fact' that upwards of five thousand different articles in common use are manufactured of the ordinary willow. The American wil-' low is probably as good as the German 'and French varieties for all practical purposes, bat an insufficient quantity of it is grown, and hence we depend ohiefly .on the foreign supply. The French are famous for the production of " fancy" articles in willow ware, but the Germans, and especially the. Etava rians, excel in the general excellence of the work of this kind.

'OI*DIE:g CB,' " Charlie, come in,—l want you," said a sweet,-womanly voice to a little boy who was playing Marbles on the side-walk in front of a nice brick house. Now Charles was very busy, and in the midst of a delightful` game. He was as happy , as could be. To qUit, his play, then_was like' quitting the table when half- through dinner.— Would he obey We looked with terest to see what he would do. What would you have done? Charlie replied, " Tes,mother," and picking up his marbles started off with a smiling face and a bounding step ;tip the Side yard and in at the end door of the house. A fine boy that ; I thought, as I looked after him I wonder who he What a beautiful thing it must be to have a little boy or girl that will mind at once, and with a happy, loving heart! I wondered what would become of that boy, and wished to see more of him and learn bis history. I used to walk past that house every week, and always thought of that blue. eyed, light-haired boy The 'thought of him made me happy. I saw a great many naughty children. Once I spent two or three days fn trying to find a naughty 'boy who ran away from his home and overwhelmed his parents with grief ; and when I found him, some one had stolen his coat, and hat, and bundle of clothes;-and all the money be had. Once I chased after a truant boy and girl for several hours, and at last,. late at night, found them in the woods, wet through, cold, mad frightened almost to death. They had disobeyed their mother and gone to play instead of going to school, and both of them were sick for several weeks in consequence of their folly and exposure. A boy that minds—he is a 'ewel. I had been in business a year or two, and in.that time had had several boys; but it was next to impossible to find nne that would mind. At last I was quite out of patience, and I determined that I would have no one who could not bring the best recommendation and stand the closest test. 'Several applied for-the - place, but no-one-suited us= At last came a blue eyed, flaxen-haired youth of twelve years, with a bright, honest face. There _was something engaging in his aspect.

Be aisles the difference in their personal appearance, they offer a marked con trast to the Chinese in manner and bearing*. In place of the cringing ab ject demeanor of the latter, they carry themselves as become men, fearlessly and uprightly, look you straight in the face, and consider themselves inferior to none. The better class are a fine bold set of men. Like knights of old, they are ever ready to avenge a wrong or even to provoke a quarrel ; and with their terrible two-handed swords would be any thing-but Contemptible antag onists in baud-to-hand fighting. Their manners are polisned in the extreme. As a rule they are exceedingly good natured, and have a keen sense of the ridiculous—rather too much so; for we believe that if the most dutiful son, possessed of the greatest filial piety, were to see his father dytfig, llircould not suppress a laugh if the old gentle man were he to do so in at all a comical I way.
