Yes, that's my house under the hillside there, facing the south, where the lights are; You saw it as you came up. Pretty? Well, as pretty as we can make it. Looks like an oasis in a,black desert,_ and hard work it is to keep it decent with so many pits about, each belching out, its clouds of villainous smoke, black as the coal which makes it; for you see we have not' only the fires for the pumping and cage engine, but those at the bottom of the ventilating shafts, and the soot they send floating out into the air is something startling, without counting the sulphurous vapors which ruin vegetation; not that there's• much this Chrlstmas-time.

Well, yes; we do have acci dents, in spite of all precaution and inspec tion.v Now you, a stranger, coming down to see a coal pit, look upon it as a dangerous place. Without being cowardly, you will shudder when we go down the great black shaft a couple of hundred yards, and you'll then walk as if you Were going through a powder magazine. .I.lt . yarflinciNiyttititoit it-led to write in yotfr copy book at school, ,0..: 5 1:4 and I sea it moved every week.

And now, aboL this story of the accident- I promised-"-only to hear this you tinist-lurVe a little more beside. You need'rit go out of the roam, my dear. , Well, as I told you, it was siB-tliad-twenty years. ago, and I was just five-and-twenty years"-old then; • working as regiilar pitman on the day or night shift. Dirty work, of course,-but there was soap in the land even in those days; and when I came up, after a good wash and a change, I conld : always en , ~ joy. a Mad,. such times as .1. didn't= go to the night school, where, always having been a sort of reading fellow, I. used to help teach the boys; and on Sundays I used to go to the school and help there. Of course it was all done in n rough way, for hands that had been - busy with a coal pick all day were not, you will say, much fit "for.uslng a pen at njght.:,,troweveic. I used to go, and it was there -Mound out that teaching was a thing that paid you back hundred per cent. interest, - for you could tnit- . teach others with Out teaching yourself. I _ But—l may as well own to it—it :Was the teaching at-the Sunday , school I usedyi look forward to, for it was there I used to ?cc. Mary Andrews, the daughter of one -of our head pittneu. He Was not so very high rip, only at the int village he lived in one of the twit houses, and had about double the wa ges of the ordinary men. Conhequetitly Mary Andrews was a little better dres'ed and better educated than the general run of girls about tlici; and there was something about her face l that used, in its quietlcarnestness.t, to.-set 7ne anxiously ; Watching her all theihne',AhOiAs tetidliiiig', till - t iisea to walk up Of a midden' i'6 the fact that the boys in my class were all at play, when, flushing red all over my face, I used to leave off staring to the girls' part of the school room and trvl to make up for-lost - time.., - . , I can't tell you when it began, but at that time I used somehow to associate Mary An drews's pale, innocent face with everything I did. Every blow I drove into a coal seam with my sharp pick, used to be indnstrr -for Martifsake, Of an evening, when-loVash• MIEN= ed off th,e hf4W.4. used to be so that she might not be ashamed of me if we met; and even every time I made my heitil ache with some calculation out of my arithmetic—ten times as difficult because I had no one to hclp me—l used to strive and try on 1111 I conquered, because it was all for Mary's sake. Not that I dared to have told her so, I thought,, brit somehow the influence of Mary used to lift me up more and more, till I should noimerpl hay . e., thought 'of ,golng4o join the otti'er'pitt ten'iit i ef)ublie l lidtise thlin of trying to fly.. -, I . It was about this time I got talking to a young fellow about my age who worked in my , shift. John Kelsey his name was, and I used to think it a pity that .a tine, clever fellow like he was, handsome, stout ' and strong, should be so fond of tl low habits, dog-tighting and wrestling, so ovular with our men, who enjoyed nothin* .better than getting over to Sheffield or otherham for wlitit they called a day's spokt, l which., gene rally meant unfitness for work during the rest of the week. n " Well ; " said John, "'your ways seem to pay yod," and he laughed and went away; and I thought no more of it till about a inenth after, when I , found, out that I was what people who make use of plain, simple language cull—in love; and 'Mien youhoW. I found it out. ' - I was going along one- evening past old. Andrews's house, when the door opened for a Moment as if some one was coming out; int, as if I had beeh seen, it was eloied di rectly. In that short moment, though, I had heard a laugh, and that laugh I was sure was John Kelsey's. MI I felt on fire for a few moments, as I stand. there, unable to move, and then as I dragged myself away the feeling that came over me was one of blank misery and despair: - I could hate leaned my head up against the /hit wall I came to and cried like -a child; but thitfeeling passed oil, to be succeeded by one of rage. For, as the blindness drop ped from'my eyes, I saw clearly. that not only did I dearly love Mary Andrews,—love her with all a Strong man's first love, such a loVe . as one would : feel Who had 'till ntiiv made his sole companions of his books,—* but that I was forestalled; that Sebtl Kelsey was evidently . a regular visitor there,' and, for aught I knew to the contrary, , was her acknowledged lover. Z did not like playing the spy, l4it with taintfeelireof lope 'on me that I might hive been mistaken, I walked back past the heuse, and there was no mistake; John.Kel seST's head was plainly enough to be seen up on the blind, and I went home intespair. now I. looked forward to - tinr yield-Bun driy, liiilf resolved to boldly tell Mary of my loye, and to ask her whether there was• any truth lit that which I imagined, though I al mbst, felt as if I should not dare. cSunclay came at last, and somehow I Was rather late when I entered the great school room, one end of ivhich was devoted to the gy Is, the . other. to, the boys:: • :tho first glance I Sa‘v";Nlary - iiiiis in her plaee rat the second all the blood in my body seemed to nish to my heart, for there, standing talk ing to the superintendent; was John Kelsey; and the next Minute he had • a class of the youngest-childien f)laced in his charge, and he was hearingthem-read: , • He has - thitte - iliii - on account of what I said to him,"' was my first , thought, and I fet glad; hut ilirectly after I was in misery, for my ..e,yes ..reAted 31pcin?faryAntirc,"&, and thatiVpitlihed fdr bey e~ ne Imo (*mac. know how ,that ,ntterron..rat . ssed; or only - o,at'aa4viiiii'lla :the children 3V ere go up to Mary's side - . acid: waliiorne her;" and then I walked-out•up,the: hillside, wande;ring hereund t here - rt tniniiii`the inured pits, half full of water, Land . think- Mg. to myself tbati. just!Neil .be (lOwn : tbere in one• of them; -for, there: was no moreluipe pleasure for me in 'This - • I Time slipped on, and I Could 44ainly see sine thing that troubled me - sorely;' John was evidently making an outward, show of, being a. hard working fellow, strivinklard for improvement, so as to stand well in old Andrews's e3;e9, while I knew for a fact that hi was as drunken and dissipated as any youn4 fellow that, worked in the pit. ' I erkuhl not tell Andrews this ; nor could I tell Mary. If she loved him it would grieve her terrliply,•and 'be dishonorable as well, and perhaps Ile - might - improve. I eau "tell him though, I thought, and I made up my mind that I would; and meeting him one night, evidently hot and eieited with liquor, I spoke to him about it. If you _truly love, that 'girl, John," I said, "you'll give up this Sort of thing." lie called me a meddling fool; said he 4(1 watched me, that he knew Iliad a hiui kering after her myself, but she only laugh ed at me; and one way and another so piled me that,we fought. I went kopethatitlght hruioi3, sore. and, aabarded Of :tq:Pa s ailoll , while he Went tOthe Andmwses Ana ; saki he b (1' Ilea to 'thrash = for sliettking ingly about Mary. I heard this afterwards, and I don'tl4oW how it was, but I wrote to her telling! er it Was false, and-that I loved her too well ever to have acted so. When next ye met I felt . 04 . 0 she must have read my letter and laughed at me.' At all event's, John Betsey did; and . L had 'lbe mortification of seeing that old Andiewit evidently favored his visits. . John still kept up his attendance at. the school, bait ho was at the far end; !maniere than once when I looked up,- it ;wee to ; •'Snd Mard•Andrews with her eyes, fixed on We: RIR; low gyred thent though direCtly; 'seen after it seemed , to me that -she tinned Ahem, open John. - • , • It seems tome that n man neverlearns till he is well on in life ho* -- he:should,lie have toward the lady of his choice, mind* well better it would be, if he Woulkgo and, in it straightforward; manly fashion, tell' her of Ids feelings. I was like the rest, eould not do it, but allowed six month to, pais over my head—six weary, wretched 1;14)111's—till Christinnsentite on, colds_ bitter, but not RO cold and bitter Its was my .!.. benrt. . . ~. ~ it Was Christmas Eve, and in a' dreamy, listies“r'ay I was sitting over my breakfast before starting for work, -when I beard!a sound, )Yd knew what it meant before there were shrieks la,the village and Womentinn fling out and making for tbeplt'a mon'ka quarlet'of a mile away.

I heard people . shrieking not_quAll,ter,g,Tas, any need,. for' there wasn't a soul that didn't know it, for the pit had spoken fOr itself. And as I hur ried. out I thought, all -in a flash like, of what a Christmas it would be for some fam- ilics there; and I seemed to see a lonw pro cession of rough coffins going to the•church yard, and to hear the wafflings of the widow and the fatherlesS. There was no seeming, though, •in the wafflings, for the poor frightened women, WELLSBORO, • TIOGA with their shawls,pintied 'oven - their heads, were crying tun' shrieking tt3 duo. anoiher as they ran on. , , . I lost no time, as you May suppse. ihruu tang to the pit's mouth, bet those who lived nearer Were'theieimig' 1 efore me; / and by the time-I-got there,Tl-fettnd that -the cag had brought up at v tile'iiii:ittkiee who were insensible, and that it , tur lust going" dowliagain; ;" • It went down qeectly; , and just as it dis appeared,, ,slip running pale and scared,. e.
