Other wfse I might be tempted to keep it." determined to go to . Mr. Hubbard's before he , went home. The sight per haps of-his sick sister might weaken his resolution, and this must never be.. He , must preserve his integrity at all hazards. He knew where Mr. Hubbard lived. It was a large fine looking house,_on a fashionable street. He had pSssed it several ,times and rendered • whether a man must not feel happy who was able to live in such style. Without any unneCessary delay, be therefore went to the. house,. and 1/sand hi., the steps, rang the bell. • , A man aervent came to the door. "Well ?" he said. "Is Mr. Hubbard at home 2" "Yes, but he has only just come in. and" don't think he can see you;" was the ,rather supercilious reply. "I am in his employ," said Edward, quietly, "and I have just come from the store. I think he will see mel if you mention this to him." "Very well, you can come ins" Edward was left standing in the I all whilc Mr. Hubbard was sought by the servant. "Well.?" he said enquringly, "Has anything happened "No, sir," said Edward, "but i picked up this bill near your desk, and supposed you dropped it. I thought I had better l bring it here directly." "You have done well," said .130. Hub bard, "and I will remember it. Honesty is a very valuable quality in a hoy just commencing a business career. 'Hereaf ter I shall have perfect confidence io your honesty:" Edward was gratified by this assurance, yet as the Om closed behind him and he walked out into the street, the thought of his sister sick at home again intruded upon him, and he thought regretfully how much good could have been done with ten collars. Not that he regretted being honest.. There was the satisfaction <4 having done right. Mrs. Jones brought some toast to her daughter's bedside, but Mary mo tioned it away. "I thanli you for taking the trouble to make . it. mother," she said "but I don't thilik I can possibly eat it." "Is there anything_ that you could rel ish, Mary e "No," said she, hesitatingly.; "nothing that we can get." • Mrs. Jones sighed a sigh which Ed- ward echoed. It was with a heavy heart that Edward started for the warehouse the next morn ing. He had never felt the craving for wealth which now took possession of him. He set about his duties as usual. About two hours after he had' arrived at the warehouse Mr. Hubbard entered. He did not at first appear to , notice Ed ward, but •in about half an hour summon ed him to the office which was partitioned off from the remaidner 'of the spacious rooms in which goods were stored. He smiled pleasantly as Edward enter ed his ,presence.' • "Tell me frankly," ho said, "did you not feel an impulse to keep thebill which Son found list night ?" "I hope you will not be offended with me, Arr. Hubbard," said Edward "if I say that I did.", "Tell me all about it," said Mr. Hub bard, Withinterest. "What was it that withheld you: I 'shonl,d never have known it," . "I knew that," said Edward. "Then what withheld you from taking it ?" L ',First I will tell you what- tempted me," said. Edward. "My mother and sister are obliged to depend upon sewing for a living, and we live but poorly at the best. But a fortnight since Mary became sick r and since then we have had a-bard time, Mary's appetite is poOr, and she does not relish her food, but. we are able to get her nothing. better. When I picked up that bill I could not help thinking how much I might buy with it for her " ' "And yet you did not, take , it ?" "No, sir, it would have been wrong. avd I could „not have looked you ill the face after it." t • Edward spoils in a tone of modest confidence. . Mr. glibbard went to the desk and wrote a check. "How muoh dol pay Jon new ?" be asked.- "Fifty dollars a year," said Edward' "Henceforth your duties will be in- creased, and I will pay yon two hundred. Will that please you ?", "Two hundred dollars a year 1" exclaim ed Edward, hie eyes sparkling with de light. "Yes, and ,at the end of the year that will be increased, e if as I have no, doubt, you 'continue to merit my confidence." "Oh, sir how can I thank yowl'" said nuwuru, utit grantrine. "By preserving your integrity., As I presume -yea are in present need of mon ey, I will pay you one cparter in advance. Here is a cheek of fifty dollars which you can get cashed ut the bank. And, by the way, yod 'may have the rest of the day to yourself." • - Edward flew to the bank, and with his sudden riches hastened to the market where he purchased a supply of provis ions such as ho knew would be welcome at home, and then made baste home to announce his good; fortune. A weight seemed to fall off the hearts of mother:and daughter as they bear his hurried story, and Mrs. Jones thanked God for bestowing, upon her a son whose good principles had I brought thens this great relief. And Mr. Hubbard- slept none the worse that uigbt far the slight pecuni ary sacrifice. He bad done a kind action, confirmed a boy in his integrity, and gla4dened a titruggling family. If there were more employers as considerate as he, there would be fewer dishonest clerks.

A FAIR 'OFFER. —A veteran relates the following: It once happened that a mule driver was erigned in leading an 'Dimly mule fora short distance which job proved about as much es he was able to do,,and gave full employment for both of his hands ; as he, was thus engaged, a newly appointed brigadier rode by ,near him in all of. the ,conseqctential radiance of his starlight, when the mule driver hailed him as follows : "I say, I wish that you would send a couple of men down here to help me to manage this mule." . The brigadier, indignant at being so familiarly addressed, sternly. replied= "Do you know who I am, sir ?' . "Yes," was the reply, "you are Gen. I believe.' "Then why don't you salute me before addressing me ?"i6quired the brigadier. "I will," responded the M. D., "if•you will get off and hold the mule." The brigadier retired in good order. a woman in SaulFrancusco finding her husband was to vote for McClellan,. re• moved all his clothes on election•day and refused :to deliver the first garment until the polls were closed.

In ;hid particular school the very dullest - paoplej rapidly " take on new: ideas.• A,case in illustration was head on Saturday before Alderman Welding. A young gentleman—we will ; call him Mr. Wilkins—hadl recently reaped the harvest of a protracted courtship in the shape of a marriage certificate and a good looking ,dainsel in cherry colored lips and six-and-three-quarter. kids. Shortly after the wedding : day a 'collector called upon Mr. Wilkins ;ivith a "little bill" of fifteen dollars for sandry back-combs, handker: chiefs and , other etceteras purchased' by the bride in :order to render herself as :1-1+ 1:1117 - V ',ening she adjured the name 'of Jones in favor of the patronymic of Mr. Wilkins., As the oolleetor appeared the model of patience, Mi. Wilkins received bill, looked at :billi and allowed he "knew nothing about it." He called Mrs. Wil kins.—" Angelina, my love, what Jones is this Y Here's a bill for Miss A.ngeli-. cut Jones." ! 1 • "Why, ducky, that's me." "Possible ?" "Yes, dear. I 'quite forgot to get money from ma to pay . it with." "Well, as ma has gone to Chicago and as I have nothing to do with it, the man' mast wait" Mr. Wilkins so in formed the collector, and immediately clOsed the front' dodr, leaving the colleq or to stand upon th i e side walk. As 're get this from the i . collector himself, it must be as he says. Collector, however, knew a little about, the law. ' It ib said that necessity knowa no law. 'This is all , humbug. Collectors receive a percentage for . colleeting bills. He felt a necessity for his money, and results proved that ; he knew a good deal of law. He immediately entered suit against Mr. Wilkins for his wife's debt. The hearing came off as we have said, on Saturday. morning, before Alderman Welding. Mr and Mrs. Wilkins ap peared in person. Collector-proved the debt, Dirs. Wilkins' was too lady-like to deny. it.! Wilkins,of course, follow ed copy, but craiiiied that because .he married a set of rippling curls and a pointed bodice it wes no reason why he should .pay. fOr getting them up. Alderman Welding, to the surprise of Mr. Wilkins; produced a volume of Par don's digest, 'and proved to the contrary. He pointed nut decisions, established precedents, that a ci4.izen in marrying a lady also =Trips her debts. Much asibe would like to rule the contrary, Alder marl Welding said it was impossible, and judgment must be !entered against Mr. Wilkins for the debt and the cost of suit. Mr. Wilkins - was too well bred to ex press surprise, but he looked like a school boy after a lesson in Euclid. The proposition was demonstrated, and must be,correct, bat to comprehend the Tea. Boeing, was aaother. ;matter. He accord ingly paid the bill and tbe costs, amount log to a trifle over jtwenty dollars, and left the office with the air of a man who has acquired - suddea knowledge. !Another ease illustrative cif the same idea was heard by Recorder Eneu on the same day. A. diminutive . German—we will call him 1 Mr. Kraut, entered com plaint that his wifellad beaten him in a mariner literally . merciless. He unswath'- ed his head from the bandages surround ing it, exhibiting the marks of a broom handle.adreinisterecl ivith no feeble unc tion. Mrs.. Kraut was arrested. She stood full six feet high, with breadth of shoulder and length of arm in due pro portion.' The husband reiterated his affidavit. The woman made no defense, and. the inagiStrate fined her for intoxi. cation. As she didn't pay. the fine, the officer motioned her to follow him to prison. She 'obeyed the order. , What you'goin' I . do, r asked, Mr. Kraut. , I 1. "Take that woman to prison. "Take her to prison ?" , "Certainly." , "And who dakes pare of der baby ?" "Don't knowi suppose you must take careakit yourself." - t ""Bfft I . can't. . I goes now to mine cork!! "Well, if somebody don't' pay, her fine' she must be locked up." • "Und must I get knocked into der cellar,by win e vife, and my bead broke, un4 den tarn arcaindt rind 'pay for it ?" "SomeliodY mnst." Mr. Kraut said tomethiog that done& ed like profanity. He dropped fire dol. ,fare-and ten tsars, the forineeon the:desk of the recorder, the , latter upon the floor, and departed ! with his wife, plunged, in profound wonder at the curiosities of the law.
