"Hold yewer Waal Aongue, Zed, and., ook end ace who's•ecitilie-d'own-the Noe." = As Zedekialt turned and looked aleng the lane leading from the house of his father to the field in which he was at work, he• noticed the approach of two persona, the one, a splen didly attired and very. beautiful young, lady, whom le judged might be aboui the same age as his sister Susan, whilst the other was a tall, thin•looking young:mAn, dressed in the height of fashion, who sported, besides a tremendous black beard, an extensive mustache, with goatee and imperial ki•inatch. We may as well,,state„here as anywhere, that Miss Julia Burnett was the, daughter of - a 're tired merchant, who resided some few years ago in a subirlan'town within about five minutes' ride of the city of Boston. Although - this gentleman was an individual of the strictest integrity, and had made the large fortune he possessed at the time our story commences by means of lucky speculations in the pleheian articles of wax and candles, he had become, long before the time his daughter visited her poor relations in the country, proud, vain and aristocratic to an,"lfiliinited and very absurd extent. Fashion was, in fa.et, the idol at whose un• hallowed shrine'Mr. Burnett, his wife and only daughter most =devotedly worshipped; rand as it was very fashionable; at the time here speci fied, for families of his peculiarly expluskve class to =ape foreign servants, and., bow down. with studied' humility to titled adventurers . (or those who assumed to be such) from -foreign lands, the family in question were overjoyed at the introduction into their midst, on the occa sion of an evening party, of Count Gasparivo, said to be 'an Italian of noble birth, whose family lineake dated beck to the first days of the Roman Empire. , . "I hope, my dear, said Mrs. Burnett to, her husband, as soon as the party in question was over, "you iii4itbd Count Gasparivo‘ to" - Call lie is ode ,of the finest talkinff men I anin a Cr.YP awe, "Tea, mid a nobleman to. boot,',' ; replied; the husband. "Most certainly I asked him tb.c;ll agdtn, and he Vratracibusli facetted •totaccept My urgent invitation. ' He 'dines with Mt to= morrow." MIMI "9 I am so glad of that Ifiardly know bow, • to ect-I" , retuto9d ,40 P;ou kuovi Julia has just oome,out, and if sha , ,Forks the oar& right, may be able to catch this , distin guished noblemanefor a lover and a husband:. Then we envied' by the richest and most exclusive families' in :Boston, and become at once 'the very head of its.gay and brilliant aristocracy." "Which it has fora long time been my high-, est ambitiOn to attain," respOnded Mr. Burnett. "As to Julia's working her card right, why, you must sae, my dear, that•. she does so, and then all will be well." "Let me alone for that," replied the lady ; and the conversation dropped. Next day the count punctually appeared at the dinner• hour, and Julia, acting strictly upon her mother's instructions, played off the artillery of her charms upon the distinguished stranger with certain and most marked effect. Se the count immediately became a constant visitor at Mr. Burnett's, and in less than six months' time became the accepted and betroth ed lover of hid daughter. But Julia did not enter fully into this grand matrimonial speculation without feeling eonsid . erame regret for a poor young student of me dicine, with whom she had become acquainted whilst at school in Boston, about a year previ ous to her acquaintance with Count Gasparivo. Edward Harley (the student in question) loved Julia, and in her secret heart she loved him ; but well knowing that his unfortunate poverty would prove an insuperable tar to their union, she at once determined to banish, if possible, his image from her mind, and marry a man who, so far as wealth was concerned, should be her equal if not superior. Supposing she had found such a man in the distinguished foreigner, who had very benevo lently offered his heart and hand, Julia thought. lcssly accepted of his splendid proposals, and ~', . ~ -qr.— - ~,7 ".

"Is that good-looking young man standing beside you with a rake in his.hand cousin Zede kiah ?" "That's him sartin," replied. Susan. "But you hadn't ought tew call him good lo4ite." "Why not?" inquired Julia.. .ti,Because he's as-preond as Satan ,pepw, and .; • that'll make him considerble preouder." , "Dew yew stop yewer tarnal gab, Sewze Blodgett," interposed Zed, "and go home and help ma'am get supper." Teti, yew mean," suggested Susan. "Tea be darned! No, I don't mean tea, nuther; I mean supper, sick as bread and milk, pork and greens, and Injin johnny-cake." "Why, Zedekiah, heovi yew dew run on be fore eour rich cuzzun." "Allow me," interposed Julia, "to introduce to both of you at once, Count G a sparivo, a,dis tinguisbed Italian nobleman, . who, I have no doubt will be happy to wake your acquaint . once." "Heow dew yew dew, Mister Ceouut Been yergaspo ?" said ,Zedeiziah, as he stepped for ward and rather sheepishly offered his hand. "Gasparivo, yew tarnal fool," whispered Susan, loud enough. however, to be heard by the whole company. "I shall be at my last gasp before I git it right, I railly believe," answered Zedeltiah. "Me vent well,hut, can not speak de very good Ingleese,"said the count, as he, touched the tips of his kid floyed fingers to .Zed's sub stantial hand, and then quickly withdrew it, as if it had been stun.. "Yew can't, hey . Well, Uspose not," re plied Zedeiciah. the potater crop in yewer part of the world F" "What dew yew 'spose he .knows abeout po tatoeS," interposed Susan; "he's a nobleman." "Well, what if he is," returned Zetfi "he eats' and, drinks like Other hewntans, don''t he?" "Bless me, how cloudy it has suddenly be come," observed Julia . , with a view of turning the conversation into a different channel. "It looks as thou g h it was going to rain right away, su I think we bad better all of us hasten into the house." "All but me," responded Zedekiah; "I can't go, for I've got , tow stack up. this hay; and then go arter the' ceows." "And for the Lord's, sake dew try and polish yeWer'self np tint& y ew 'come ye'come back where r 0 . eour rich cuzzun is," whispered Susan 1 who therenien turned and followed Julia and the count towards the house, whilst Zedekiah gently stacked his hay, and then started fora pasture at some distance from the field after his cows. ' , Pt , i.' As he passed on his way thither a narrow thicket of alders that bordered on the highway 1 and'hid it, partiallyfrom his view, Zeilekiah heard two men conversing together,, one of whom arrested at once. .foptsteps and atten .. tion`by-sayitig= '{ ' •3 "I don't think it's .bes to go any, nearer , the house, Chillins because it we .do, we may be observed by the wrong customers." "Perhaps not," returned Chillins. "But , are you sure, Hobson, that yonder is the house where the count is stopping?" "Yes, I know it is; and his intended wife's aunt lives in it." "He's coming a new game, though, for a fancy pickpocket," observed Hobson. "One of the most accomplished covies, in the profession, Bill is," replied Chillins. "What time did the count agree to meet us here?" asked Hobson. "At six o'clock ; and it only wants ten min utes of it now," returned his companion. "Do you suppose he has got some money for us?" , "I know he has," replied Chillina, "for he borrowed a hundred and fifty dollars from old Burnett the day before he name here." "Has he begun to bleed him already'?" "Of course he has, and will tell us•all about it as soon as he meets us here," replied Chil lins. Thinking that, for the time being, at least, he had heard enough, Zedekiah, instead of go ing after the cows, hastened back to the house, which he reached just after the supposed count had, as Julia said, gone out for a walk. "If it aint tew , much trouble," said Zed, "I would like tew haye yew go eout for a walk tew, Miss Jewlia, along with me." "Doesn't it rain r" inquired Julia. "No l clearin' all off," replied Zedekiah. "Upon the whole, cousin Zed," returned Julia, after considering a moment, "I 'guess I wont go. • , ((Perhaps, arter yew speak With me a mintn or tew priyately, yew'll alter your mind," Zed responde •I , ' d. heaven's and airth's what . •, the , 'Matter with ye ?"' .

'T ut further hesitation, Julia l astily " put g oo . her `on et and 'shawl, and, under' Zedekiali e s 'faithful championship, re paired by a circuitous path to the same place 'of listening` the latter had previouslY occupied. , „ The first words' shp heard were uttered by , Chilling, who spoke as follows: "BY gad, Comit 811 Swazey, I hope after old B 't' you marry urnet s daughter, you wont cut the profeEsion altOgether. there'i a nice little job of breaking in`roa..bank in New York `coming off soon, in which we shall very much need your advice and assistance." "Only give me time 'to get old Burnett's daughter and a little of 'his Cash," replied the quondam Connt*, and y o u shall have both: If I could get the cash witbon t the girl, I wouldn't be' bothered with her; but as that little thing can't be dene, I must Make a virtue of neces sity and take the two." "Tell us , how you managed to come the no bletnan over the old man," said Hobson. "My dress, mustache and broken English did th'at to perfection.
