THE BANK NOTE.
“ Are you retiirtiitig lf'l‘lIlIe:‘IlilIf‘.ly to “for-
eester ?” said Lady Leslie, a widow residing
near that city, to a young tifiicer who was
aying her a morning visit.——“ I am; and can
Itin any thing for you there ?"’-—“ Yes; you
can do me a great ltindness. My Confidential
servant, Baynes, is gone out for the day and
tiiglit ; and I do not like to trust my new foot-
rnan, of whomI know tmthiug ; to put this
letter into the post office, as it contains a fifty
pound note.” “Indeed 1 that is a large sum
to trust to the post.” “ Yes‘; but I am told
it is the safest conveyance. It is, liowever,
quite necessary that a person whom Icau trust
should put the letter in the box.” “ Cer-
tainly,” replied Captain Freeland. Then,
with an air that showed that he cousitlered
}n'nisrl_fas a person to be trusted, he deposited
the letter in safety in his pocket-book, and
innit leave; promising he would return to din-
ner the next day which was Safurtlay.
On his road, Freelantl met some of his bro-
ther officers, who were going to pass theday
and night at g:cat Malvern; and as they ear-
nestly pressed him to accompany them, he
wholly forgot the letter entrusted to his care ;
find having dispatclted his servant to Wor-
cester, for his suclr-tle-mtit, and other things,
he’ turned back iiith his companions, and
passetl the rest of the day iti that satititering,
‘oiitnmusitig idleness, that dolce far riienie,
wltich: may be reckoned comparalivt-Iy virtu-
ous, ifit leads to the forgetftiltiess flittle du-
ties only, anti is not attended by- the positive
infringement of the great ones. But in not
piitting this iinportzint letter into the post, as
he had engaged to do, Freeland violated a
real duty ;atid he might have put it in at Mal-
veru had not the rencottiiter with his brother-
officers banished the commission given him
entirely from his thoughts. Nor ditl he re--
meuiberittill,astiiey rode through the vil-
lage the next morning, on their way to \Vor~
cester, they met Lady Leslie walking in the
road.
At sight of her, Freeland rccollected with
shame atid conliisioti that he had not fulfilled
the charge cottitnitied to him ;and faiu'wou’d
AWOIIIHD of higlt ‘fashion, great talents, anti
some severity, he was afraid that his negli-
gence, if avowed, would not only cause him
to forfeit her" favour, but expose him to her
powerful sarcasm.
To avoid being recognized, was however
impossible: and as soon as Lady Leslie saw
him, she exclaimed, “ Oh !Capt. Ii‘ret-.-larid,I
am glad to see you! I have been quite on-
ea~y concerning my letter since I gave it to
{put care; for it was ofsuch consequence E-
i:l you put it into the post yesterday ?"——
“ tgertatiily. [low could you, dear Maidaiii,
(If-(till my obedience to your .:omtnauds 1”-
“ Thank you, thank you I” cried she, ‘.‘ How
you have relieved my mind I” Hr had so;
but he had painfully burdened‘. hisowu. To
be sure it was only a Wlllir lie,—-the lie Q/fiaar.
Still he was not use to utter falseltood ; ..iid
he fe.lt the meatmess and degradation of this.
He had yet to learn that it was mischievous
also ; and that none can presume t_o say where
flit. coixseqiience oi." the tnost apparently trivi-.
al‘ he will end. As soon as Ifteelatitl parted‘
WllllVL8f.Iy Leslie, he bade his frieutis fare-'
well, and putting spur to his horses, scarcely
slacked his pace till_ he reached a general
post office, and deposited the letter in safety.
“Now then,” thought he, “ I hope I shall be
able to return and dine wi I‘ L-idy Leslie,
iiitbout shriukitig from her penetrating eye.”
He found her, when he arrived, very _pen
sive and absent ; so much so’, that she felt it
ling them that Iiiaiy-Benson, rm old servant of
ibers, who was very dear to her, was Setl0uSl.V
'ill, and painfully circumstanced ;and ll13$'5l19-
feared she had ,not done her duty by II?"-‘,“

‘speaking to him inya low voice, " I bl‘"“‘3d
_ myselflor not having ‘sent for; my_confiden-
' tial servant, who was not very far off, and de
spatchcd him with the money, instead, of
Irgsting it "go me‘ post,” “ It would have been
better to have done so, eertainlyll’ replied
Freeland, deeply blushing. “If?-Si If-“'_ ‘he
poor woman, to ivhoml sent "9, 15 "015 Gill)’
herselfon the point of being 'confi‘ned,~but she
has a sick linslmnd, unable to be moved ; and
as (but owing to no fault ofhis) he _ls on the
pointof bankruptcy, his cruel landlord has
declared that, ifthey do not pay their rent to-
morrow, he will turn them out into the street,
and seize the very bed they lie on . However,
as you put the letter into the post yesterday,
they must get the fifty pound note to day, else
they could not ; for there is no delivery of.
letters in London on a Sunddg, you know.”
“ True, very trite,” replied Freeland, in a tone
which hevainly endeavored to render steady.
“ Therefore,” continued Lady Leslie,“ If
you had told me, when we met, that the lat-
ter was not gone, I should have recalled
Baynes, and sent him all by the tnail to Lon-
don ; and then he would have reached Sotti
merstown,wlieré the Bensons live, irf good
time ; but now, though Iown it would be a
comfort to me to send him for fear ofaccident,
I could not get him back again soon enough ;
. therefore I tnust let things take their chance ;
and as letters seldotn miscarry, the only dan-
ger is, the note may be taken out.” She might
have talked an hour without answer or inter-
ruption; for Freeland was too mtich con-
science-stricken, to reply ; as he found that
he had not only toltl a falsehood, btit that, if
he had moral courage enough to tell the truth
the mischievous negligence, of which he had
been guilty.-could have been repaired; but
now, as Lady Leslie saitl, “ it was too late I”
But while Lady Leslie became talkative,
and able to perform her duties to] her frie(i1ids,
after she had thus tinburtleued ier min to
Freeland, lie grew every minute tuore abgent,
and ntriretacitiirii ; and lllOli'3ll be cool not
eat with appetite, he threw IIIIWD, rather than
drank, repeated glasses of hock and charm-
paiguc, to enable him to rally his spirits ;—
but in vain. A naturally ingenious and gen.
erous nature cannot slialte off the first com-
puctious visitings of conscience for having
cotmuittcd an iiniv.irt‘.iy action, and liavitig
also been the means of in‘-ury to at‘-oth-et‘.——
All on a sudden liowever,J his Cfllliilellflllce‘
lirightened; and as soon as the ladies left the
table, be started up, left his coiuplittieiits and
excu~es with Lady Leslic’s nephew, who prr».
-sided at dinner , said he hail a piesrsiug czill it-
Wortiester; anti \i’i‘iell tiierc, as the London

land soon fouut.l a cousin-stor to the mean
lodging in which the Bensons had olitainetl
shelter , for they were well known ; anti their
hard fate was gerierally piticd; but it was
some time before he could speak, as he stood
by their bedside-—he was choked with painful '
emotions after=vartis :—for his conscience
smote him for the pain he had 0(‘CiISl0!lt.’.5I
rind applauded him for the pleasure he CEIIIIP
to bt:sl0W.—“'I come,” said he _at length.
(while the sufferers waited in alrnnst angry
wonder, to hear his ieason for thus iiitrucliug
on tlieui.) “ I come to tell you, from your
kind friend, Lady‘ Leslie.” “ Titen she has
not forgotten me !” screzrmed out the poor
woman, almost gasping for breath. “ No, ‘Ill
be sure not ; she could not forget yoti ; sht-
was incapable . .” Here his voice-
wholly failed him.
“ Thank heaven 5"’ cried
she, tears trickling down her pale cheek. “ I
can bear any thing now ; for that was the bit-
terest part of all I” " My good woman,” said
Freeland, “ it was owing to a mistake zpshat-I
no; it was on iug to ntyflzu/t, that you did tint
ri:-ceive a-fifty potiud unit: by the post yester-
day.” “ Filly pounds!” cried the poor man,
wt-urging his hands, " why that would li.ivt=.
more than paid all that we owed ; and I coultl
ll:lvt': gone on with my business‘, and otir lives
would not have been risked, not I tli~'gi'aced.”
Freeland now turnct: away, unable to say a
word rtiore ; but recovering himself, he again
thew near tltetn, and, throwing his purse to
the agitated speaker, said “ there I get well I
get well !only get well.’ aitti whatever yoti
want siiall be yours I or I shall never lose this
horrible choking again while I live!”
' Freeland took a walk after this scene, anti
with hasty, rapid strides ; the painful choking
being his cottipaiiiotr very oftett tinting the
course ofit, for he was haunted by the image
of those’ whotu he had disgraced; and he
could not help remembering that, however
blameable his negligence might be, it was
uotliitig, either in siufuluess or mischief, in
the lie told to conceal it; and btit for that lie
affair, the effects ofhis negligence might
have been repaired, in time.
N But he was resolved that he would not leave
bommerttowti till he had seen these poor
peolile settled in a good lodging. He there-
l_0t'e hired a cotiveyance for them, and super-
intetidedtheir removal that evening to apart-
inetits full of every ticcessary comfort. tally

He then, but not till then, had the courage
to ivt$?'e to Lady Le'slte,arid tell her the Wlluir;

Lady Leslie was delighted with this candid
letter, though grieved by its painful details,
while she viewed ‘.'.'l[iI approbation the amends
which her young friend had made, and his
modest disregard ofhis own eirertions.
The note arrived in safety ; and Freclarid
