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

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."

Was the crushing and splintering of the
massive timber breast-work that I' had
heard at first. 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

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."
You foolish old woniau." said I.
" Never "try to mend a break by your
self. But as you are safe, I don't mind
the crevasse.''
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,

"An axe," 'said 1 ; "what for!"
"To prize up the porch floor an'

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

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 - small houses floating down ; but it
was noon before we saw any_ human
being. Theti)it fine boat came breast

half a mile away, in the dead water
near a swamp, they saw our table

us as such, bade us take care of our

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. They devise
all sorts of useful contrivances, and dis
play much ingenuity in inventing arti
cles which are of no particular utility,
but• serve to adorn spare corners of
apartments, .or to pique huriosity as to'
the purpose for which they are . in
. tended.
tn Bavaria, fathers hand down their
knowledge of this art to, their sons, and
when ,the sons become fathers, their
progeny follow the same line of busi
ness. Willow working is a family affair,
and long practice makes perfect. Ex
pert and nimble fingers are - required to
split and weave the little . willowwands
into so many shapes as these facile peo

thimble, but complete

which is to go to the , child's - nursery,
up to the pondrous hamper, with the

A STORY FOR THE LITTLE
FOLKS
FRUITS OF . '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. Had I seen
hint before? -. What is your name,7__ -
" Charlie Warren, sir. I live . in
Franklin Street. MYlfather is a car
penter, but is lame new, and can not
'work, and I, have got ,mother's consent
to go into a store, if I can find a place.",
It was the verrCharlie whoni I had
seen playing at marbles. I remembered
the circumstance,, and knew thal he
would mind. . I did• not need a: recom
mendation for him, but gave him the
. place, and twice as much pay as-I, had
-promised' to give. -
Charlie came to work on Monday.
morning. It seemed hard for him the
first week of work, but he behaved like
a man. The.boys in the next store
came in and made his acqltiiiptance•
One morning I heard two of them try
ing to persuade Charlie to go off with
them down on tie wharves in the fore
noon and see a boat race that was to
co'me off.
" No," said Charlie, " mother told
me to mind my business, and I am
paidfor staying here, and don't think
it right to go off without my employ
ers knowing
That was a brae word, and I thought
more of Charlie than ever. ,
That was ten years' ago. He has
been with me ever since , ' proved
to be the best clerk I ever had. Yes
terday we put up a new sign, - and on
it, in large gilt letters, was Ch,rlie's
full name. The store is hiErown. He
isqmw a prosperous, promising young
man, and if he lives will I e a rich,
honored man. And all this because
one bright morning he Minded his
mother when she called him. From
such little things do great results come.
Always mind and it will be well with

aisles the difference in their personal
appearance, they offer a marked con

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

we think, too good to - be lost. Many

than was to be met with, in - his own
quiet village, set off for New York, and
'stopped at the Astor HOuse the most
fashionable HOICI of that-day.
The ~dihner hour having arrived, .
our friend was in the, (lining room in
good'scason, but to his great surprise, -
found on thdtable nothing but china .
and glass. A waiter presently apL
peafcd, Who with a polite hOW, asked
him what he would have. Our old
friend replied Very compo'sedly, "set on
the vietuals." ,"Yes Sir." "yes sir,"
said the waiter pointing to the bin of
fare, "any thing yyti mould like sir,"
Set on. tltc victu ls;' responded our
old friend with an•emphatic tone, which
attracted the attention of-all present
to the great embarrassment of the wet:
ter, who said, "Yes sir, what will you
have, sir. " Tomatoes, corn, chickens,
I will bring hay thing you desire; sir !" •
This was too much for his country
habits, aid with a still louder voice he
exclaimed "Set on the victuals and I
will kelp Myself."
• The result was that his wishes were
gratified and that unlike the other
guests, he dined. at "The, Astor House"
just as lie was accustomed to do at
home.

Good bones are better than gold, tough

The man is rich who has a flavor
