I believe that-I struggled, but. only feebly ; forit strange, delicious, ener vating languor was stealing over me; I saw things mistily but-still with an understanding, mind, seeing, though unable to move hand or foot, that the invalid was bending over me, while Mrs. Ross was hastily placing the va rious articles of jewelry in her pocket. I saw all that, but in a dreamy, un troubled way, for it seemed then to be not of the slightest consequence, not to concern me.. Then I have some recollecti6n of ah intensely Cold sensa tion .as of water being poured upon my face, while my next impression is. of hearing a closing door and the click of a lock. How long I remained in that con dition, I never knew ; but by 'degrees I woke to a feeling of deadly nausea; my head swam, my temples throbbed, and everything I gazed upon watt seen through a mist of dancing motes. But by degrees thoughts of the present be gun to take the.place of the dreamy imaginings of- the past. I started up and looked around, to find that I was still in the inner room; bat the jewels —the cases—whore was the invalid—, where Mrs. Ross 2 'Was it true, or was it some strange vision ? It was impos sible that I could have been duped like that. . I ran to the door,—faetened.• Tho other door—locked on the outside. I darted 'across to the bell, but in doing so, caught my foot in the long . table cover, tripped and fell, dragging" the cloth on to the carpet and revealing the whole of the jewel cases beneath the table, just as they had been hastily flung. I could not help it then, for my . 'brain 'was confused, and-, stooping ' down 1 took the cases one by one,' and opened them, in the fond. hope that 1: bad been deceived, and that I should find the jewels safe but, save, ono ring, which had-escaped their notice, everything had been takon. - I sat-on—the-carpet for a few min.- utes holding ray throbbing head, and, trying to recall the scene, br almost in vain, for it seemed as if'a ortion of my existence had been wiped, corn pletelY. aivaj: I was.ahowing jewelry atone r inotoent, the next it_ seemed. that - I Was seated by the empty cases. • I tiied to - clear my faculties, but in vain ; .and . .l should think quite half en hour. had elapsed before thoroughly ;awakened to the fact that I" had been robbed, Prang the bell.

A IdINISTBit'S COURTESY Ely used to tell a little story of a.lnOther clergyman, Rev. Mr. Gay of Suffield,.which story was a good_illus tration of Yankee " cuteness.' Sev eral similar aitealotes have appeared in print ; but thifil is a genuine " Si mon pure," we believe. Among Mr. Gay'e parishioners, was a well do fanner named, we will say, Brown, who was especially generous, in his free will tithes to the good minis ter. The farmer's errand and dchore boy, getting big enough to take his place at the plough, a new boy was ta ken into eervice- , -a rough ) untrained, little fellow, I think from the poor house To him the prompted boy dis coursed quite condescendingly : you hey-got into a pretty nice place, I bet you; and if you behave, thug' use ye well, give you plenty, of geed victuals, a suit of Sunday clothes, whiter clothes winter se"loolie' and not Work you tew hard. But one thing—you'l hey to go to the minister's- pretty often, and lug big baskets of things ; and the worst of it is, thitlyou'l never get any thing but thanks - from the parson and his folks—riot so much as a Arnie' for your pal s.". • Johnny heard and pondered, and it - happenedthat-thevery next morning, .he was sent ;to the mihistere' with a heavy quarter of-veal, about as much as ho_coulcLcarty. Tholva_kivas long and the weather warm, itnwhen he reached the parsondge,'ho 'Nirae not in the best Of tempers. He marched in to the breakfast room Withent knock ing or removing his hat, said gruffly : " Mr. Gay, Mr Brown has sent you this hero quarter of veal." "-Ahl indeed, said the minister bla; ndly, "I am obliged to him. " Are you Mr Brown's new boy 7 . 't "Yea,"' " Well my lad, when you have been in the family a while longer, your man ners will doubtless inprove." • " Why what's the matter with my manners'" [liked the buY with a look, of stupid astonishment. "Why my son they are a little ab rupt and discourteous. Now.lour way of presenting Mr. Brown's present, was not just as it should have been. I can show you, so that yoU wilLkuow just how to do the next time. I will per sonate you, and you may pretend you are me for a few minutes." Saying this the minister took up the the basket went into the entry and closed the door. Then he kimdked gently. The boy haying seated himself in the ministel'a chair, and put on a grave and reverent aspect, called out, come in. Entering very quietly and deferen tially, though with difficulty iiresei ving his gravity, holding his,liat in ono hand, and the basket in tlM'other, the minister approacheil his very small proxy, and said, with a very low bow : Mr Brown sends his compliments mid begs that you will accept this quaiter of veal, Mr.: Gay. I am very much obliged to Mr. and to you my fine boy, said Johnny, with an..,air of the ~utmost seriousness, but it seems tome that this is a big load for so small.a lad to carry." Just take it in the kitchen and ask Mrs-Gay to give you a:quarter of a dollar. No body ever enjoyed this story morechan Mr. "Gay; Oteept perhaps, Mrs.'Gay who promptly, paid over the quarter to the clever little actor. He ought to have been a great law-' yer.
