long night, totting round the fire—some of.their
yarns would astonish you They've astonished
me sometimes, end I've seen a I , it of life. You
see, sir, the way of it is this When we come
into a house we find the family, as I may say, all
of a hearp with grieving and borrowing, so they
take no heed of us, and we come and go when
we like, and no questions asked; that's the way,
sir, we get to many a secret Why, look at that
business of Mrs Craven's, down at Rod Grange
—which I saw myself with my own eyes—why,
that was as queer a bit of history as you'd ark to
see in prior
Thank you, Sir, I shouldn't mind—it is a

fortable 1 have liberal instruction, so we must
do it handsomely, Simgster—handsomely, mind
you"
We had Lard work all that day, cutting up
the liuen and getting things ready; we were to
start that night, and we found time short enough
About six o'clock that evening, when everything
was packed, and Pawler ens giving me his last
instruction, (he was coming down himself later,)
a young man came running into t 1" office—a fine
handsome young man, but with a face ite white
as one at oar linen scarfs lie was very wild
and at4gtring, so that, at first, thought be was
disordered with drink; but I soon saw from the
black band on his bat that be must be a relation,
a mourner, or a chiefmourner moot likely.
"Am I In time ?" says the young man, ruu•
Ding up to Pawler.
Pawier started up.
" Good Gracious, Mr Craven, is that you f I
thought you were in France "
'• Am I in time ?" says the young man, very
fiercely •' Answer me :"
" Plenty," says Pewter, "they don't go this
hour. Sit down, Sir, for God'a sake :"
"Thank heaven :" saye Mr Craven; "I have
come night and day for this Listen to me,
Pawler I oan depead oo you."
'• I hope so, Sir, says Mr. Pewter; "I have
done business with your father and your grand
father before him, and they were always satisfied
with me."
" I know tint," said be: " but what I want
done is this. I can't go down to the Grange till
to-morrow night I must stay here I daren't
go; but I lay it on you in the most solemn man
utr co see that the funeral does not go forward
till I come."
" C•rtainly not, Sir, says Pawler; •' it would
be moat k wprovr—oat of all rule "
"AL : but you don't know Promise me
wbateier they—soy one—may hay, my poor
father shall not go to Lie grave without my see•

They will have their own way I can't be

easy, Sir " b.
The young MAD did not say,any more, but
covered up his face with his bands, and shortly
after went away io great trouble We started
not loug after, Iby the night train—a good many
of us, too I took all my staff with me, es
Perrier said, besides some extra bands, for it was
to be done handsomely, and no expense spared
We bad a pleasaot party going down, for, lo o k
y, u , qtr , a piofessional can't keep on a sad face
every day of his life—it's enough to look down
cast on his duty, or when he's walkiug—that's
what I think. Well, we got to Red Grange early
next morning—nip! of your ancient, open house,

when I saw the straggling buildings, and the
gables, and the roomy puarch, aua the long avenue
with its three rows of lime trees—why, I could
figure for myself, an plain as if I was looking at
them, the big family vault, stag toe family
ancestors in marble, at the church bard by, and
the testate riding upon their st"ut bobs These
things may he known with half an eye, as one
may say We got in as quietly as we could into

SI 50 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE.
ERIE, SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 25,1856.
tomparly —for you know, sir, familial have, some
of 'cm, a dislike to meeting us on the stairs
Aires no accounting for these things, sir. As
soon as was decent, I sent up a message asking
to see whoever was head of the establiabment,
as is usual I sent the staff into the kitchen,
and a nt myself to the butler's room to learn
the ..graphic of the place I eonld have made
a picture ..1 hiut. too. as I went along the gallery.
A mist repret ble man this will be, said Ito my-
self—what a -bort throat and a husky voice,
with !softie f the old port in his cheeks, and
more in tb' pantry euphoard I know them well,
they are all , f 1 the same joint. Well, he was,
as I know he would be, as most respectable man,
and aboVed we how many things lay in very few
minutes Them was up stairs only Mrs. Craven,
second wife of Welbore Craven, Esquire, deceas
ed, and Major Craven, his brother, who managed
everything now
" The- major was here very often," says the
butler, fetching down the port, (I knew he would;)
"very often—oftener when poor Mr Welbore
Craven was up in London Re was very friendly,
the major," said the butler, looking bard at
me.
"Ah !" I said, looking et him; " I gee Here
during the inners, I'll swear!"
" That he war—the poor man died blessing
him "'
" She's young and handsome, i'll warrant?"
said I I never saw her, iir; but I knew she
was young and handsomo—l did, indeed, sir!"
4( You may say that," says the .butler; " but
there's the hell for you "
So I went up at once to the drawing•room.
The major was there, sitting at the table—a
tall, dark man, with a moustache, and a little
stoop in his chest A very gentlemanly man be
was, hir , and his voice was a soft as a woman's
The room was rather gloomy, as the lower shutters
wore dosed; mod, as well as I could make out, he
seemed to be writing at the table He said :
" are the person rent down by Mr. Paw.
ler !".
" Yes. sir," said I, "at your service."
‘• I hat-• sent for you to beg that everything
nay b.• in readiness for. having the funeral to
tn.'trnw• 'llia is Mrs Craven's wish, for whom
I am acting."

as up.st people's But what I say is this, and no

You see my chief won't be down, and
half the things are to come as yet "
" This wasn't quite the truth, for we might

vers, much aback
W1•II, sir, I left him there, and we shortly af.
t• r went up s. It! t 7 put things in order there
There w•s • •oit f large ante room out-side,
where the ire Welt; .re Craven, Esquire, was ly.
over black' oak, as dark a room as ever
I sat in Ir w.e full queqr cupboards, and
er Mi 11..., Awl pig. no stuck up and down
and s• rya here , I never saw such a built thing
ver. I settlod myself there at once, and
ut the °them: down to the kitchen to cheer
their eptttts When I bad drawn a chair to the
fn. , and !•tirrtd up the coals with my foot, I can
assure you I felt more comfortable I felt more
ruf rtahle when there was some things"
bra ught in and set on the table. 'I sat that way
for some h , tars, until it got quite dark outside—
it might be then about six o'clock I was think
ing over what kind of a man the late Welbore
Craven, Esquire, was, when the door was opened,
and the major came in with a haughty•looking
lady on his arm, all in black.
" - I have been consulting with Mrs. Craven,"
he said, "about this matter, and we are both
agre.d that the funeral must go nu to:morrow
"Sir," I auswered, ' I can say no more than
what I have said already T showed you to day
that it was utterly impossible "
'• Mr Songster," said the lady, with a soft,
genii,. voice—how she picked up my name, I
can't lay—" Mr Songster, since you see we are
mueso It interested in this matter, I am sore you
sill make ev.•ry exertion for us Do try, and
we Fliai i be so grateful to you "
What can I do?" I said, at my wits end
from their persecution "I am not hindering
the business; but, as I t ;Id the major, there is
nothing ready " •
" Never mind that, Mr Songster," sass she;
"Sou wilt contrite same plan Do please, and
we shall nevi r forget it to you."
I saw sue was trying to come round me—pale
lady with soft voin--so I said bluffly—
" It's no use talking: you can't make a silk
purse out of a sow's ear; it never was, and it
never will be done Take my advice, and wait
and do it decently, and don't shame the
before the neighbors."
I heard the major whispering to her that there
was AVOse in what I said, and that they had bet'
ter wait; but, she turned round ou him with
such a wicked look—ah: The late Welhore
Craven, Esquire, must have had a weary life of
it with her:
Will you let yourself be put off with this
fellow's pear ezeuseo? Wbat is he at? Make
him speak I won't be trifled with! I t tell
you," Abe said, turning on me, her eyes like
burning c ads, " I tell you it shall go on to
morrow I say it " •
I sin 11 .. ed to h e •r,,,iten civilly to, and the
word fo I ow 'tuck, in my throat, so I stood up to
Ler at on,e.
" s) lug as I do my duty by my prin.
I .bali take no heed of bad words from
any lAy breathing lie has his instructions
froui another, as I have mine from him; that
,tber being young Mr Craven, who has every
rl;rbt to air here and to direct here."
I had kept t is shot fur the last, in case I
should drive the wall. It told well. Tuu
never saw people shut up in your life,. -
" Ele is to Franc " said the major.
•' No, sir, be is n
. t. I saw him last night
no)self "
He was trying to keep up Mrs. Craven, who
was quite scared and wandering.
"Let us go—let us go." she said. "I knew
it would be this way. I knew it would. It is
at hand—just at hand—l knew it."
The major looked quite mystified; indeed, all
along I saw he could not make cut what she
be at LI ',Fever, they went out without
saying a work; and I wail very glad to bc l kft to
p. roe.
Well, air, after that I went about a little—
. looking at everything, just to strewth ■y limb.►--
~ I always, however; having an eye to the late Wel
-1 bore Craven Esquire, pursuant to orders. I
thought it boot to look to this wiyoulf—especially
when I saw they were su tircerwiuvii-4“1
not know what might come next; so, a - ).411
o'clr.ck, I made all snug for the night—lin:ling
in a big chair before the fire, and snuggling my.
self down comfortably

By this time they had, in their struggles and

Closing again in a close Lug, they fell as before;
but this time, instead of eudetive,ring tJ keep is

blow drove it to the hilt in the Indow's heart,
and he lay quivering in the agonies of death.
Springing to his feet, Joe new bethought him
