I wrote on, the more rapidly from fear of another interruption; but nobody went to the door, and presently the neive of wire which ran kitchenward through the house, tingled again with a hastier signal than be fore, in token of the impatience of the hu man nerves that were waiting outside. "Dolly, where a Kate? said I, clipping the words short that they might be the less interruption to the paragraph which was un winding itself ou the paper. Taty's done out door," said the Utile three year old. who was building a royal cas tle on the carpet. I threw down my pea and weDt myself to answer the summons. - A ton of coal, ma am said the sooty mor tal on the steps. 'Oh, yes, said 1 remembering that the good man had remarked the night before that the winter it supply of coal bad gireu out, and that he mutt send up enough to last the remainder of the cold seasoD. Drive in at the side gate and dump it beyond the wood yard, you will see the place;" and I was clo sing the door hastily to return to my work; for I had just so much that must be done, beiore the tun reached the middle of hisjour Dcy for the day. but the sun forsoth was get ting on without any obstacles whatever, while all the fates seemed to have conspired to in terrupt the race of my pen across the paper. "(Jarry in your coal, ma am, said a parti colored boy, promptly presenting himself at the orifice of the closing door. "Sot now," I replied, "I hare no time to attend to it, come at noon." The hour of noon pealed with a provoking jubilee from the towers. The sun had fin ished its half days work faithfully and well, but mine was not done; and still the pen toil ed wearily over tad paper, in momentary ex pectation of being called to account for its delinquency. louarenot housekeepers to war with constant interruption," I said defiantly to the chiming bells, and to the sun whose rays fell with perpendicular triumph on the cottage roof. , "A boy wants to know if he shall bring in the coal," said Katy, presenting herself at the parlor door. "What does he charge for it: 1 asked without stopping. Katy weut back for an answer to my ques tion, and in a moment reported "two shil lings is the boys price." Ma, said my , little son who had juet come in from school, pushing past Katy to speak to me, "Ma, there's another boy s ays he will do it for. eighteen pence. "Very well, take the cueapest one," said I calling after Katy. ' Yes, ma'am," called Katy, and the par lor door closed upon them. But at the same moment a boy passed the bay window where I was sitting, and tapped at the library door. . "What is it?" 6aid I rapping at the win dow with my ivory pen-holder. . . "Bring in your coal, ma'am, for fifteen cents said he. "Very well," said I, supposing it was the last boy, and weary of the interruption. . : : "Snail I bring it in?" said the boy with a brightening np of his face. "Yes, yes" .'. lie turned hastily away with a glad look on his features, but just then two other boys came through the gate that led from the wood yard to the kitchen door,' with their shovels, and commenced at the heap of coal. The light faded instantly from bis sallow - cheek he saw that he bad lost the job, and throw ing up both his thin arms, so as to catcb bold of the picket of the fence, he bent bis bead upon the upper rail, and the silent tears came coursing down, leaving their track amid the coal dust that obscured his skin. The atti tude was one of such utter despair that the busy pen was suspended a moment that I might look at him. lie was a mere shadow in comparison with the otber boys, who were now busy at their work, and who seeing his disappointment raised their heads, and ap peared to throw him some bitter taunt.' He paid no attention to this, however, except to bow bis bead lower on the rail; and saying to myself that his erief was probably caused by some boyish jealousy about the finding - of work, I went oa with my writing. My little boy came back from the kitchen and stood with bis hand on the back of my chair, wait ing for me to lay down my pen-. "What is that boy crying for?" said be presently looking out of the window, at the little thin, gaunt figure that was leaning against the fence. "One of the coal boys," I answered. "Is he the one who offered to do it for eighteen pence?" - "No, mamma, it was the one with the blue frock. The first one was mad at him when he said he'd do it for that; but then when he found that he had the job, he offered to help him and they made a bargain." "I am sorry, I supposed it was the 'same .one, said I, still busy at my irorJC. "Did he offer to do the coal?"- ' "Yes. for fifteen cents." "Well, why didn't he?" "It was too late: the other boys were al ready there." 'Is that what he's crying for?" 'I suppose so. Don't disturb me." "What did you tell him? Mamma, mam ma, do tell me whether you told him he could do it." "I did, my son, I supposed it was the oth er boy come round to this door." It is too bad," said Lewie, looking lugu broiusly out of the window. "Mamma, mamma," he added, pulling my sleeve. "those boys are plagueiog him. Mayen't I go out and see to them: I looked at the litt'e sprig of a boy, whose chin was just high enough to rest on my shoulder as I sat, and laughed at the thought of his sceingXo the brawny lads who were bring ing in the coal. But with this glance at my eldest born my heart grew softer for the woes of chilhood, and I looked again to the one to whom the loss of this hard, dirty work seem ed such a bitter drop in the cup of grief. He had sank back from the place where he stood, and thrown himself upon the box which had been placed as a winter covering for my wall flowers, under my nursery window, I could just see the top of his cap where his head bent forward upon his knees, but from its motion I knew that he was still grieving over his dissappointment. With my pea in my hand I stepped into the nursery and lis tened. In through the opea window came the sound of his bitter sobbing, poured out with an abandonment of wretchedness that told no common sorrow. I stepped softly to the window and looked at him, lie could hardly be older than my own Lewie, it seem ed to me, and I could see through the ragged garments the white skin of hid thin arm, and the turn of his finely curved neck, and Thougt that he might bo as dear to some mother's heart as my own child was to me. "What is the matter?" I asked. He started, and his sobbing ceased in an instant, but he made no answer and did not raise his head from his knees- "I wish you to tell me what troubles you," I said again, after waiting a few minutes. lie had raised his head with a proud curve of the neck and shoulders, and was looking straight before him, with the tears standing as if they were chilled in their pathway dowa his face. Lost the job," he said sullenly, in reply to my question, but without looking towards me. : - "Is that all? That is a great deal of work to do for fifteen cents." - "I wanted it though." he said, with anoth er tear making its way out of his fixed eyes and brimming over.' - "Did you want the work or the money." "I wanted the money," said he, bitterly. "What would you do with it?" 'Eat it,'? he replied, with increasing sav ageness, after a moments delay. "In what form?" I asked, my curiosity excited by the boy's answer, 4 'as peanuts or candy?" - I'll move along," said he, making a motion to go. but lingering as if he lacked the en ergy to rise ; "I don't wish you to move along," '-I re ally wished to know why you wanted this money so much, -and what you would have done with it." 'I "I'd have bought brad for my mother. Sho is starving," he exclaimed, turning sud denly towards me, with the great tears brim ming out of his eyes again in spite of him self. - - . , Oh no, my child.' paid I, with a shudder. I hope not; she can hardly be starving with plenty all about us.' "What good does that do us? We've noth ing to do with the plenty. She won't let me teal, and I haven't bad a job these three days.' , "Is there no one but you to provide for your mother?" - 'No, ma'am, not since she's been sick'' If you are really destitute you should let your wants be known. There are ways in which you can be kept from starvation, be sides if you were really obliged to choose between the two, don't you think it would be better to beg than to steal?' - 'We won't choose between them She says she can starve. I follow the coal carts all tha time, but the big boys get all the jobs There's nothing for me to do.' Do you see that trench yonder, beyond the currant bushes,' I asked, pointing to the gar den, 'There are cabbages there, and now that the frost is coming out of the ground I want them brought to the csllar. There aro two or three basketful I will give you fifteen cents to bring them ia ' - Yes, ma'am,' said he, starting np with alacrity. 'Thank you, ma'am ' Got a bas ket?' Go round to the kitchen door and ask the girl for one, and come to me when you are done.' - - - ' - ' ' ': He hurried off to his work and I returned to my writing, which was soon finished and the manuscripts folded for their destination. I was looking np my writing materials when Lewie came from the kitchen and told me the coal was in.- 'Very well,' said I, you may pay the boys, and I handed him the necessary amo unt. But now Katy followed him across the' dining room and looking over his shoulder reported 'cabbage in,' and waited for further ordem. Let . me pa him, too, mamma,' said Lew- le. "No, I wish to see him. into the dining room' Katy, send him "Now, said I, as I gave him the money, I wish you to tell me where you live, and if your mother is sick and ia distress, I will go see her.'

Prompted by the boys distrust of me, I set out on my usual afternoon walk soon after dinner, and not more than two or three hours had elapsed since he left me before I was as cending th wrethed stairs, np, np, up to his mothers room. A racking struck my ear as I paused on the landing. WThen it ceased I knocked at the low door, which was opened at once by the coal boy, who stood before me with the soot washed from his face, and Lis ragged coat replaced by a thoroughly clean but well patched apron. There'es no chair,' said he. half timidlv. he ushered me into the room; 'we have sold the last one.' A few chips, evidently gathered front the wood yards and slips, were burning ou the hearth, and on the bed, ia one corner, lay the sick mother, with a wretched looking little girl nestled asleep beside her. I' went up to the bedside and looked into the large haggard eyes that were fixed upon mo from the mo ment of my entrance.- She lay silently un der, my scrutiny, which continued with, a growing reccognition for two or three miu- utcs.- - ' - - - Sarah Ilarmon!' I exclaimed at length. You kniw me then,' she said turning her face to the pillow. 'I knew that you would come, lie told me what you said, and 1 felt sure that you would come. Did you know who it was, Sarah? Have you known that I was living so near you?' . . . 1 T 1 --A.es, i nave seen you in your yara last summer, when 1 went by witn my work to the shops; Charlie said it was the cottage with the roses I knew the place.' And why have I not known that you were suffering? You should have let me known.' 1 was better then.' said 6he, feebly, "and you never liked me very well.' I his was true we had grown up in the same village, the roofs where we were born were within a stone's throw of one another, but our natures were essentially different, and as our tastes led us too seek different amuse ments and different associates, we grew far ther apart. There had never been any en mity, but there was little affection between us; and when I knew she would marry the weak unprincipled Charley Escott, simply because he had a .musical name and a grace ful carriage, I liked hor less than ever. She was the child of good christian parents, but doubtless they had erred much ia the training of this their only child." Jo rom the : time of her marriage 1 had known nothing of her. I had removed to a distant city, and she bad ' followed her hus bands fortunes, or rather misfortunes, from one wrethed home to another, until he was laid in a drunkard's grave, and she was left with her frail children and her ruined health. to the poverty and contempt of a drundard s family . - I care nothing for myself,' sue sai l, i have borne every thing that human nature can bear, I 'only wish that some one may care for my jor children when I have gone.

But dear little Jennie I don't know what will beoomo of her.t Poor little Jennie indeed! The trials of her mother and herself, had shattered both mind and body, and she had lived through the four sad years of her life just on the verge of idiocy. But this her mother failed to see, and it was well, for God bad made provision for the child in His own home. We made them both com fortablj while they abode on thb side of the dark- valley. But the mother lingered only till the spring airs come, aud before the . summer was gone, Charlie bowed himself again in grief that knew no consolation, over Jennie's grave.

Shouldn't wonder a bit if I never was able to say anything else again. Serve Jones right, if I wasn't! Fourteen old ladies every one of 'em with rusty black bonnets and dilapidated umbrel las couldn't be satisfied without putting their noses into every closet in the house, counting the silver spoons and taking partic ular notice that the spout was off the china cream-pitcher.

A few days ago a bashful C I ) vounr man, accompanied by a timid young girl, made nis appearance in cue oi our jus tice's office, and calling the Inquire aside, told him it was the desire of his heart to get married to the person who accompanied, him. The Justice rubbed his hands with glee, look ed at the girl, (a rosy, rubicund, little wo- man.1i an l after asking the groom the usual questions in such cases made and provided, said he was ready. - The groom saidio him. "Of course, sir, you will give us a certifacate of marriage?" "Most assuredly, sir." And he turned to go, when . the bashful young man took him by the button hole and saying, "Do you always put the actual date to them: "Always," said the Justice, and he looked hastilv at the little woman, while his eves smelt a mice. "Couldn't you leave the date off?" Oh! no " "Must it go on the certifi cate?" Certainly." And they wera mar ried. But his disappointment was terribly in earnest. Lockport Democrat.

It can be made to cover a circumference of -at least twenty feet, to fill one whole scat at the lecture room or a pew at the church!

A few days ago, in a Western court, the following incident to jk place. The .lawyers inside the bar were very noisy, holding loud conversation, to that the evidence of tv itness es cxiuli-scarcely be Lea ri. The deputy sheriff rapped on the desk with a knife of pon dcrous handle. Still the noise was unabated After a pause he arain rapped for order, but the loafers chattered on. Th deputy sheriff again brought down his knife on the table with three tremendous raps, as he looked dag gers at the disturbers. Look yer, says Colonc-I , a mem ber of the bar, ri.sinr suddenly to his feet, with remarkable gravity of countenance: 'Judge, it is impossible for gentlemen to hold conversation while that person (pointms to the deputy sheriff) is allowed to tcaie the . noise he does.
