COURTING" ENDER DIFFICULTIES.
Katie b lake was the only o:laughter of
Jacob Blake,the oldmiser of West• Brook.
She was wore than ancommonty pretty
and her ft ank.eogating, manners enhanced
the charms of golden hair, nearly teeth,
and eyes like the blue skies' of summer.
At her fathers death she would be heiress
to the nice little sum of seventy thousand
dollars,and though men generally pretend
net to be influenced by pecuniary matters
in affairs of love, kis to .be reasonably
supposed that this prespective wealth by no
means lessened the namberofheradorers.
Amon; those tnosi . ardent,and perhaps
I °
most sincere,l was Will Dnrtmouth,with a
~ _
heart larger than Ills piirse, - and Very little
thought or care for consequences. . ,
rortanately, old Judah never suspected
the partiality of his • - d - augliter for • Will ;
he would have put her onbieadand water
before he would•have"conleated to the
sliAlitest degree of irtiniacy with Will
Dartmouth. ,- -- ' - .
'Jacob Blake was not in favor 'of mar
riage. Th?s'e who knew his eircninstaucei
were not surprised at this', for s to use a
phrase rcorelexpressive than elegart,Mrs.
Blake was a(regular Tartar, with temper
enough for two Tartars.
1 Old Jacob had;to "walk• Spanish" for
1 the most part, or suffer the consequences
)
which Usually Asecended fm his head in
the shape o any domestic utensil which
happened t be lying around handy. 1-
A maide Sister of Mr. Blake resided
in:tlae family, whose ptiocipal •baainesS
seemed to b to,act as a sort of echo to
ber brother and his wife. Whatever they
thought she thought too. I
' She regarded it as a primary sin f r r
Katie to associate with the young men,
aild this dodtrine was perseveringly drilled
into her niece, who,though she never dts
se fled, bad her own idea; on the stibjedt.
One - day Mr. Blake and his wife went
to De4bam, to attend a fair, and! Miss
Peggy being at a friend's Katie WfiS lift
alone. Will Dartmo - uth in Some *ay
learned the condition of affairs, and early
in, the afternoon he came over to; keep
Katie company. 11
As her parents were not expected home
until the next day, and Peggy no i until
late in the evening, Will felt, pOfectly
.
aecure to stopping awhile after stfpper ;
and he and Katie were having a jolly time
popping corn in the old fashioned 'frying
pan, over the huge wood-fire, whenthere
was a sound of voices at the door.
~ "Good gracious !" cried Katie, turning
white with alarm, "that is Aunt Peggy.
Oh, Will, what shall we do,? She will
scold me . t) death ; and father will be fu
rious—Get under the lounge, quick I Oh,
Will do for my sake ?" : -•
Will Could not withstand the pleading
in Katie's eyes, and he deposited himself
in the designated spot. ,
put .
Katie out the light, and darting
into an adjacent bed room, in a onient
1 Irn
was apparently asleep. '
Peggy's voice was heard speaktngsoftly
ie the entry. - 1
"Be careful. Illi.. Pike, There's l a loose

"Oh, My I' - cried Ann' Peggy, !fwbat

"It's a fine.evening,said Pegity,tthe

over the back. t•
"Oh, Good gracious! Daniel, don't set ]
