'poOrth-aveller. Well, we all what to bed,
and'Paddy hid himself in the cow-house;
and now ‘I must tell you how it was with
Paddy. . .
You see, either Slaypiug for some time,
Paddy wakeneu up: thinkin’ it was mornin’,
but it wasn’t mornin’ at all, but only the
light 9’ the moon that desaved him; .but . at
' all events, he wanted to be Stirrln’ alrly, be-
kase he was goin’ off to the town hard by, it
bein’ fair-day, to, pick up a few-hipeuce
with his pipes—for the divll a betther piper
was in all the countth round nor Paddy;
and everyone gave it up to Paddy that he
was iliga‘nt‘o'n the pipes, and played “Jinny
bang’d the Weaver,” beyant tellin’, and the
“Hare lathe Corn,”that you’d think the very
dogds was in it, and the horsemen ridin’ like
ma .
Well, as I was sayiu’, he set oil to go to
the fair, and he wint meaudherin’ along
through the fields, but he didn,t go far, antil
climbiu’ up through a hedge, when he ’was
comin’ out at t’other Side, his head kem
plump agin somethin’ that made the fire
flaSh out iv his eyes. ’80 with that he looks
up—and‘ what do you think it Was, Lord be
merciful to us, but a corpse hangin’ out of a
three.
“Oh, the top 0’ the mornin’ to you, sir,”
says Paddy, “and is that the way with you,
my poor fellow ? throth you tuk a start out
0’ me,” says poor Paddy; and ’twus thrue
for him. for it would make the heart of a
Stouter man nor Paddy jump, to see the
like, and to think of a Christian crathur be-
ing banged up, all as one as a dog.
Now, ’twas the rebels that hanged this
chap—bekase, you see, the corpse had got
clothes an him, and that,s the raison that
one might know it was the rebels—by mison
that the Husshlans and the Orangemcn
never banged anybody wid good clothes an-
him, but only the poor and defenceless cra-
thurs; like uz; as I said before, Paddy knew
well it was the boys that done it; “and,”
says Paddy, eyin’ the corpse, “by my sowl,
thin, but you have a beautiful pair 0’ boots
an use for thim no more; and sure it’s a
shame to see the likes 0’ me,” says he, “the
best piper inthe sivin counties, to be trum-
pin’ wida pair of cold brogues not worth
three transom, and a corpse with such an
iligant pair 0’ boots, that wants some one to
Wear thim,” So, with that, Paddy lays hould
Of him by the boots, and began a pullin, at
thim, butthcywor mighty stiff; and wheth-
er it 'was'by mison of their bein’ so tight, or
the branch of the three a jiggin’ up an downv
all as one as a weighdee buckettee, an not
lettin’Paddy catch any nght hould o‘ thim
—he could get no advantage 0’ thim at all—
and at last he gev it up, and was goin’ away,
when lookin’ behind him agin’, the sight of
the iligantfine boots was too much for him,
and-he turned back, detarmiued to have the
boots, anyhow,_by.fair means or foul; and
I’m loath to tellyou now how he got thim—
for indeed it wasa dirty turn, and throth' it
was the only dirty turn I ever knew Paddy
to be guilty av; and you sea it was this-a-
knife, and, by the same token it was a knife
with: fine buck-handle, and a murtherin’
big blade‘ that an uncle o’ mine, that was a
gardener at the lord’s, made Paddy a prisant
av; and, there by token, it was not the first
mischief that knife done, for it cut. love be-
tween thim, that was the best uv frinds be-
‘fore; and sure ’twas the wondher of every
one, that We knowledgeable man, that ought
to know betther, would do the likes, and
give and take sharp steel in frindship; but,
I’m forgettin’—well, he outs with his knife,
and what does he do, but he cuts off the legs
of the corpse; “and,” says he, “I can take
off the boots at my convaynience,” and troth
it was, as I said before, a dirty turn.
Well, sir, he tuck’d the legs undher his
arms, and at that minit the moon peeped
out from behind a cloud. “0h! is it there
you are 1” says he to the moon, for he was an
impidint chap; and thin, seein’ that he made
a mistake, and that the moon-light, decea—
.ved him, and that it wasn’t the airly dawn,
as he conceaved; and bein' griken’d for fear
himself might be eothcd and trated like the
poor corpse he was either a malthreating, if
he was found walking the countth at that
time—by gar, he turned about, and walked
back agin to the cow-house, and, hidin’ the
corpse’s legs in the sthraw, Paddy wint to
sleep ugin. But what do you think? the
'divil along Paddy was there until the sojers
came in airnest, and, by the powers, they
carried ofi Paddy—and faith it was only
mvin’ him right for what he done to the
poor corpse.
'Well, whin the mornin’ kem, my father
says to me, “Go, Shamus,” says he, “to the
shed, and bid poor Paddy come in, and take
share 0’ the praties, for, I go bail, he’s ready
for-his breakquest by this, anyhow.”
Well, out I wint the cow-house,and called
out “Pade 1” and afther callin’ three or
four times, and gettin’ no answer, I wint in,
and called agin, and divil an answer I got
still. “Blood-an-agers i” says I, Paddy,
where are you at all at all P” and so castin‘
my eyes about the shed, I seen two feet stick-
in’ out from undher the hope 0’ album—
“Mu-ha! thin,” says I, “had luck to you,
Paddy, but you’re fond of a warm corner,
and maybe you haven’t made yourself as
snug as a flay in a blanket ? but I’ll disturb
your dhrames, l’m thinkin’,” says I, and
laid hould of his heels (as I thought, God
help me). and givin’ a good pull to waken
him, as I intinded, away I wint, head over
heels, and my brains was a’most knocked
out akin the wall.

“Arrah! be aisy,”says my father.
“Bad luck to, the lie I tell you,” Save I.

“Oh, the divil fly away wid her,” Says he,
“what a cruel taste. she bas'for music !”
“Arrah 1” says my mother, “dOn’t be cur-
siu’ the cow, that gives the milk to the chil-.
dher.”
“Yis, I will,” says my father, “why
shOuldn’t I curse sich an unnath’ral haste 1’”
“You oughn’t to curse any livin’ thing

shan’t be undher my roof any more; for I’ll
sind her to the fair this minit,” says he, “and
sell her for whatever she'll bring. Go aff,
says he, “Shamus, the minit you’veate your
breakquest, and dhrive her to the fair.”
“ Throth I don’t like to dhrive her,” says I.
“Arrah, don’t be makin a gommagh of
yourself,” says he.
“ Faith, I don’t,” says I.
“ Well, like or no like,” says he, “
must dhrive her.”
“ Shure, father,” says I, “ you could take
more care iv her yourself.” _
“ That’s mighty good.” says he, “ to keep
a dog, and bark myself ;” and, faith, I rec’l-
lected the Sayiu’ from that hour; “let me
have no more words about it,” says he, “ but
be a'ff wid you." _
So, off I wint, and it’s no lie I’m tellin,’
whinI say it was sore agin my will I had
anything to do with such a villain Of a baste.
But, howsomever, I cut a brave long what-
tle, that I might dhrive the manather iv a
thief, as she was, without bein’ near her at
all at all. ,
Well, away we wiut along the road, and
mighty throng it was wid the boys and the
girls—and, in short, all sorts, rich and poor,
high and low, crowdin’ to the fair.
“ God save you,” says one to me.
“God save you, kindly,” says I.
“ That’s a fine .baste you're dhrivin’, says
he. “ Throth she is," says I; though God
knows it wint agiu my heart to say a good
word for the likes Of her.
“ It’s to the fair you’re goin’, I suppose,”
says he, “ with thebaste ?” (He was a snug
lookin’ farmer; ridin’ a putty little gray
hack.)
“Faith, thin, you’re right enough,” says I,
“ It is to the fair I’m goin’.”
“ Whut do you expec’ for her ?” says he.
“ Faitlfihin, myself doesn’t know,” says
I, and that was thrue enough, you See, be-
kase I was bewildhered like about the haste
entirely. . »
“ That’s a quarc way to be goin’ to mar-
ket,’ says he, “and not know what to expec’
for your haste."
“ Och,” says I—not likin’ to let him suspict
there was anything wrong wid her—“ Och,”
says I, in a careless sort of a way, “shure no
one can tell what a haste ’ll bring, antill they
come to the fairy” says I, “ and see what
price is goin’lfl " -
“Indeed, that’s nath’ral enough,” says he.
“ But if you wor bid a fair price before you
come to the fair, share you might as well
take it,” said he. '
“ Oh, I’ve no objection in life,” says 1.
“Well, thin, what ’11 you ax for her?” says
he.
“ Why, thin, I wouldn’t like to be onray-
sonable,” says I——( for the truth was, you
know, I wanted to get rid iv her)—" and so
I’ll take four pounds for her,” says I, “and
no less.” /
“ No less !” says he.
“ Why, shure that’s chape enough," says I.
“Throth it is,” says he; “and I’m think-
ing it’s two chape it is,” says he; “ for if
there wasn’t somethin’ the matter-fills not for
that you’d be sellin’ the fine milch cow, as
she is to all appearance.”
“Indeed, thin,” says I, “ upon my con-
science she is a fine milch cOw."
“ Maybe,” says he, “ she’s gone off her
milk, in regard that she doesn’t feed well?”
