THE OLD PEDAGOGUE.
If the billowing little picture of real life leek
thrilling incidents, let the testier And interest in
the fact that it is a true story. I write it with
the absolete assurance that many will read it
who not only know the incidents here recorded,
but they also know all the parties well, and they
will bear MP witness that I write them things as
they actually happened

and twenty, who bad jest opened a store in his
native vtligy ! " There were already two dry goods
stores in ihs plane, but the town was growing,
and Henry believed that he could make a good
business by opening a third He had been mar.

who had been his seho,ihnate, and who had been
brought up from infancy close by him. Winter
had come, and Henry had been in business for

People liked him much, and he had trade enough

gratitude."
[lard!) had the young man spoken when the
door bell mug, and in a few moments the servant
girl auu
_that an old Ulla wished to see
Mr. Loomis. Henryj directed her to show him
right in, fir 'ffie feeling possessed him at once
that it was Unc!e Adam And so it proved
" Uncle Adam," the youth cried, starting
from big chair and catching the old man's hand,

It was redly a pleasant meeting, aid the old

He happy. and yet there was a tear in his
eye.
Maim Wilson bad been the village pedagogue
for many years. Twenty years previous to the
opening of our story he was the teacher thee";
and be bad bees a private tutor in the place
some years before that. 8.1 that most of the
young men in the village, and some of the older
ones, had bren his pupils. Teo years ago be
left the place fie had become rather too old to
teach, and when the committee hired a new ped
agogue he went away None knew wheither he
bad gone, and those who thought of him at all
thought him diad And now, at the age of
seventy-live, he had come back to the town where
he had spent so many years of bis life.
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

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

"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. Ali, yob need

seeming to feel more easy now that the subject
was Uroselted.
"Then explain ab about it. Come tell me an,

"On one condition, Undo Adam, I Will do

The young man looked up in wonder and u
tosishesent, but before he couldeollect his senses
enowAh to speak, the old ass went on :
" I see, I see—you're paneled. - Ha, ha, be,
Illy boy, when you took..nte in and gave me a
home, you took a fortune to yourself. When I,
left this coutiOy and west to Scotland, I went to
:skim property which a brotberof mile bad left
I was the only living rehhive he had, and,' gain
ed the property; amounting to between three and
four hundred thousand dotlars. As soon On I
bad got if I resolved' to return to /Maki, for I
had no friends there But when I reached these
shore I found myself almost as poorly off. I
turned my steps hither, and wondered if I had
one true friend left. I knew that some one
mast have my vast property, and I wished that
it might fall to some one who loved surbut, thinks
I, if they know how - rioii I am, they'll all love
me. So I determined to find somebody, if I
could, who loved poor old Uncle Adam Wilson,
and you know the malt. Ah, I came nigh giv
ing up, but fortune brought me here, and here I
found all I could possibly want. Henry, Sarah,
my noble, generous friends—it is my turn now
to be the helper. So cheer up. You have prov
ed yourselves worthy, and I only pray God—
that I may be as happy in seeing you enjoy my
bounty ILI I have been in reeeiving your warm
1044 and kindness." •
"It required some time to 9 aiet the keliage of
time. youog husband and wife,, and when they
dared to trust their wdrde they blessed the old
maw in earnest, grateful tones.
"I Phan not -refuse you noble offer," said
Hairy, as soon as he (mold speak plainly, "for I
know you well enongh to know that you will be
happier to , ice us enjoying yourbiunty than you
would be were we to refuse it."
Itefuse it ? Why you east refuse it lt's

For the next half hour there was weeping, and
hurting, said blessings, and thaeksgiviugs, and
then the little party settled down into a calmer,
deeper joy.
In time the story of Unole Adam's wealth leak

—regrets from those who had made no beam for
their old pedagogue. Fiume serious oyes even

the old man was wealthy before he took him in ;
but they knew better, for they had the assurance
of one who °ever spoke falsely, to the cootrary.
However, none of these things darkened the
sad joy of the young merchant's home.—
peace
rose above his pecuniary trouble, sad as his
new wealth brought new mama of happiness to
his possession, he forget not those who were in
need. The same spirit which prompted him to
give the old pedagogue a home, still operated in
all his doing*, sad many were the poor people
who learned to bleat hie'.
Uncle Adam has been dead several years, but
his bounty is in w orthy hapds, and many, very
