EUGENE FULLER: OK FATE IN A TIN DIPPER. "Want to buy any tin-ware to-day, ma'am ? pails, brooms, needles, scissors, thread, wash boards—all kinds of glass wart, cheap for old rags, ir. n, money, or credit ? Want to pur chase ? Should like to trade with you " This was the salutation of a tall, handsome youth, as he opened Mrs. Phillips' kitchen door, one fine uiuining in August, and ad dressed the lady of the house at her seat by the window. Now Mrs. Phillips was a little nettled with the disobliging conduct of a skein of yarn which she was winding, and she answered tho fellow's 6triug of inquiries rather tartly for tier : "No—l don't want any of your trash !" Mrs. Phillips' eyes snapped portentiously, and her eyebrows drew into closer relation ship, as if determined that no pedler should be suffered to annoy their amiable owner. "Piea*e Mr. Peddlerman, I want a iin dip per !" called a childish voice from the dark porch— the first and last born of her parents, catne bounding mm the room, Eva was a beautiful child, and the young peddler gazed at her with undisguised admiration. "And pray, for what does my curly head ed girl want a tin dipper?" he asked, with an amused expression on his face. "Oh, to dip up water from the brook—to get berries down on Blackberry bills, and," -he added with charming naivete, "to 6ee my face in." The peddler laughed. "Female vanity alike the world over I" he muttered to hunself; then "Well, my dear girl, you shall have the dipper. The best tin in the world might be proud of mirroring ■mch a face ! come out to the cart and get it." Eva ran merrily down to the brown gate, where the peddler's good natured horse was patiently awaiting the master's coining, her happy head full of the grand times she would have with that tin dipper. The peddler •ptned theboX and toox Imm thence a verv •right dipper, and then with ihe point of O'S knife, he engraved his name—Eugene Fuder— upon the outside, and gave it into ne child's hand. "Them my little M s*, what is your name?" "Eva Pearl Phillips," caul the gtrl inspect '.<• in-r gift wuh sparkling eyes. "Mis* Eva !-a very pretty name. Well, I i-ept I his dipp.-r as a b>ve gage from Eu ue duller, who, when Vi.u get older, is iimig back to make v<>u his little wifi ! (>ean tour. Eva's beauty excited the most fervent admiration wherever she worn, but though she received many offers of marriage she preferred to remain with her father. They visited all places of interest in southern Europe, sighed over desolate Rome, walked upon the lava of Vesuvius, beheld the magnificent proppct from the highest peak of Mount Blanc, floated upon the waters of Lake Con -tance, admired the impregnable fortress of t .bralter, and sojourned 'or some months in the French capital. At last tbev took passage frotp Liverpool to New Y. rk, and with meltinr hearts looked out daily towards the bine distance where they knew home was. A prosperou- passage was theirs, and from the bustling American metropolis they took the express train on the Eastern Ra Iroad, which would set them down at home before sunset. But alas ! how little do we know of com ing events ! 11-.w little do we realize upon what a slender chord hangs our destinv ! At lightning speed the train which carried oar travellers sped on, Eva joyous and cheer- I fill in view of beholding once more the dear old pjiice; her father rejoicing in hi< daugh ter's happiness. In crossing a bridge built on a hr'ad but shallow river the machinery of the engine became disordered and it: an instant the foaming monster plunged into the river, dragging the train after it. At the first shock of the overthrow, a young man, who for the whole journey had been regarding Eva with fixed attention, dashed toward het and clasping her in his arms reached li e platform just as it was go mg over: one frantic leap, and he with his senseless burden, went down beneath the water to rise almost instantaneously and strike for shore. Boldly he swam on and at last he safely reached the shore, when after giving Eva into t lie tare of some benevolent people who dwelt near the bridge, he returned to the scene of accident hoping to be of some ser vice in rescuing those imperiled. Sad to relaia, Mr. Phillips was among the killed, and Eva, on the return of conscious ness, found herself orphaned, an I alone| in the world among strangers. It was a new and|terrible experience o her, and her shrink ing spirit was nearly broken by the shock. She suffered herself to be guided entirely by the advise of her unknown dreserver—de pending upon him with the trust of a helpless child. Under his protection Eva set out for home, home no longer, now that there were none on earth to care lor her. The house ai Wheatwoid had been closed the greater part >f the.tirne during the absence of its owners, and had only been opened a few weeks before in expectation of iheir coining. Everyihing ihere was damp and mouldy the curtains were falling to pieces in .he continual mois ture of the atmosphere, everything bore ihe impress of gloom. Suit heavier fell the gloom w hen the closed coffin holding the remains of Mr. Philips sis brought into the long dark parior, awaitng the funeral service of to mor row's morn. Eva's alfl'Ction was dreadful t" witness. She took notice of nothing, neither a'e nor slept, and refused all attempts at con •olation fr. rn her sympathizing neighbors. The young stranger who accompanied het 'lotne took chai ge of everything, and ihu good people of the vicimti , suppoeing him to hare ieen an intimate friend of the deceased, made no inpuiries concerning his right to act as he -aw fit. Mr Phillips was buried by the side of his wife, and Eva, on the aim of pitying o|q c!er gymun went down to ihegrave, tciy, fear lessly, like a stone statue. She t xlnbited no ritiotion, utiered with a fixed immovahb -'are. The funeral over, the stranger engag ed two trusty srrvan's, a man and his wif. to lake charge of domestic atfnrs ahout the j place, and then made preperatinns for imme- ! diate departure. The morning upon which he w'as to leave, he sent a message to Era, re questing a private interview. It was granted and she met hnn in the little boudoir attach ed to her chamber, where she had passed tin greater portion of her time since her return. He catne in with a little hesitation in his stej and took the chair her silent nod indicated. As he did so, li s eyes involuntarily fell up m he tin dipper, which still retained n >lden place up in us Iressuig bureau. He started up, and approaching it, took it into nis hands and examined it long and attentive ly. Still retaining u, he came to Eva's side : '"Miss Phillips !" She looked up drearily on hearing her name spoken, but her face brighterid instant ly w'hen she beheld her old plaything. "May I ask how you cauiw by ibis, Miss Phillips?" "It was given to me by a peddler some years ago— his name is on ihe side." "And you have preserved it through all this time— t ou evidently priz it!" "Prize it!—sir, ir has saved my life." "Would you 'ike to see the giver of that trifling toy? Would it please you to see Eu gene Fuller?" •'Yes, H would gratify me slave all thins. Then would I thank him for the good his gift h is been to me " "Then, Eva Phillips, look up into my face and thank me! lam Eugene Fuller!" The gtrl rose to hei feet, and threw a long searching look into the face of the young stanger. Then her eves fell, and she said, with something of doubt— "ls it true?" "It is true," he answered. She put her hands confidingly in his. "And is it Eugene Fuller to whom I owe my preservation from a terrible death in that time when—" Her voice failed —a sigh heaved from the inmost depths of her heart—her frame shook —tears, blessed tears, fl->w d like rain d< wn her face. Thev were the first she had shed since her orphanhood. Eugene blessed them —for he knew that only through much weep ing could the burthen which dished her be lightened.- -When she was calmer, he drew her down beside him on the settee and said —"Eva, it is fifteen years ago, hat I a youth of fourteen—charmed with the beauty of a little girl—gave her a tin d pper witn my name cut thereon, telling her that when she was older and when I was older, I a linn Id c one back and make her my wife. Du*'t thou reinembar this Eva?" Eva's voice was low and subdued, as she aDswerd bin— "Yes, I remembor it," ♦ # +*4 * ■* v - jr* w '•Well, I am older now; twenty nine iao* mors have passed over my head, giving me weakfi and influence, and to day the heart echils the sentiments of the boy. 1 have si wal remembered yon; have always cherished thjT.nd idea of coming back to this country I tofci where 1 first saw yon. and renew our but until last Thursday mj lifMkss could never be arranged for leaving. Fa me on board that fatal train of cirs, and the first face which I saw on seat ing myself, was yours- 1 did not recognise you as Eva Phillips, but I recognised yon as the twin of my soul, for I have been a strong believer in predestined marriages. I saved j>l u fn m death because I felt that my life should be desolate without you, and when afterwards I learned that you were Eva Phil lips in}- contentment was perfect. And aow Eva, the mate of my spirit, may I wave eti quette, now in this moment when your heart >s suffering from your sorrowful bereavement, and ask yon to give me, of all the world, the right to comfort you?" Eva's head dropped lower, her lips quiver ed, as she spoke the words he so longed ts hear: "Eugene, I give it to you !" lie drew her into his arms and kissed off the tears which still clung to her cheek. And she, feeling again the warm bond of nfffCtion around her, looked up with hope ntd trust to the hope of all happiness ; Ileav* en. Eugene Fuller and Eva Phillips were mar ried two months from that day, and the uealth of Ihe bride was drank by the coterie of distinguished guests assembled' from the iin dipper, winch subsequently became an 10 ir loom to the Fuller family. Mr. Fuller uid his wife removed to Boston immediately oi their union, and their lives were blessed to them. There' dear, bright-eyed reader, is the, -tory ot the 'lin Dipper. Quite a dipper wasn't it ?" FOUR EARS OF CORK. A mighty Maize, but not without a plan '■Pope. Stun in Cameron's memory does not go so l ir back a* when Congt 'ss resolved that bis oi nipt ions had reached such a hight as to re quire his removal from office. We say his memory dues not go so far back, otherwise how would lie have the face to be again, as ie now is, a candidate for office 7 But he to recollect that in 1860 he told !. ff rson Davis that if the South seceded he ie would plant corn in the streets of Charles on,S.C. To keep this promise, Cameron went to Charleston last spring, planted some corn in a street, and put soldiers to watch ing and attending it. The other day, we are told, Cameron got a package of four ears of corn by Adams Ex .•res*, as the fruit of his speculation, accom* uani. d by a letter from Brevet Major Gener -11 John P. Hatch, certifying that "it is poor corn at best, ' but that "it received every '■are from the gardener at the hospital."
