One evening ho and his wife sat in their com fortable parlor before the well filled grate, and the latter held her infant upon her knee " How it snows," uttered Henry, at the same time turning his gate upon the fair face of his R ood wife " It is a s.:vere storm, Henry, indeed it is.

The young couple made room for him, and Henry drew a great easy chair to the are. " Now sit down and let as talk over old times," said the young man as he resumed his own seat. "Where have you been sine , ' we saw you last, Uncle Adam?" ":Ih, I have been in a great many places," i said the old man "I have crossed the great i ocean arid spent some years in Scotland.

The old matt lifted his trembling band to the noble woman's bead, but when he tried to speak his voice failed him. His lips quivered a moment and the big teens rolled down his furrowed cheeks. DIM "Bless you, sweet oue," murmured Henry, clasping his fond wife to his bosom, " you were made to give happiness to others." The old Man saw the movement, sod heard those words of gybe basband to his wife, and, above all else, they proved to him that the young couple were earnest and sinners in their offer. -- Those simple words, addressed to another, struck more deeply to his heart with conviction than could a hundred verbal assarsoces given directly to himself• _ " Gkod ►law you!" be atileugth uttered, grasp• ing Hoary by the hood. "An hour age, Ffear. oil had oo friends oo earth, and now I find them warm and true." " And why should we'not be friends?" return. eki Henry earnestly. "I owe much of what! am to you. I shall never forget how you bore with me when 4. was a wayward boy, and how you gave me the lawn i upon which I have sine fouuded my manhood." It was late err the trio rotirte, mad tits old man blessed his friends again ere they separated for the-nigh t . In the morning Sarah informed Uncle Adam that her hasband and hotaolf bad got the mature all arranged, and that they smut to be as happy es could be; and she made his prudes that he would go and bring what things be had to their house. He gave the Rondos and before noon had taken possession of his room. People wondered what had induced Henry to take "that old man" into his'horise, ud to those who asked him he answered that thoste Adam was like a father to bim, and he gave bin a house I:eause he loved him. The old pedagogue went to the store almost every day, be made himself useful in a variety of ways. For two or three weeks Uncle Adam watched his young friends very narrowly, but at length be became assured that they liked to have him there, and that they would on no account suffer Lisa to leave. As woo wile rained this aritr anon be was happy and contented , and ere tong be became really a father in the household. lie was still fresh and strong in intellect, and his eouvereation was a source both of pleasure and profit In the Spring be went to a neighboring city and spent a week, and both Fleury and Sarah were really loneeotne while he was gone: and when he returned he saw, by the eagerness and joy with which he was welcomed batik, that he had a place in their love, and that they ware glad to have him with them The Spring passed away and suismer eame. It was during the first week in August that Henry came home one evening downeut and sad.— Sarah asked him what wu the Matter, and .he whispered to ber to wait, till Uncle Adam was rum s The old man understexl it all. He saw the ni \ (leineut and be knew what it meant. So he asked whit was the matter. Henry tried to put him off, but it would not work. " Ab, Henry, you have no right to keep ,any trouble from me. • I am a co:spigot of your bounty, and if you are in tenable I have a right to know it.

"But I must knot, boo," persisted the old man. "If you don't tell me, I may tell you." i Henry mailed, but made no aiureer. " Look ye, my noble boy, you are laboring under some peouoiary dithJulty.
