“ es,” returned the youlh. hopefully. “I
could never be happy with Agnes, much as
I love her, if I thought her dear old father
had no home. Come we will live together,
and be as happ as'the days are long.’
“But your an ary ‘2”
“It is sufficient for us. 1 have five hun-
dred dollarsa year. We can live on that,
and lay up something, too.”
“Well, well—lake her—love her—be good
to her—make her happy—don’t never—”
When the old man saw joyous tears
streaming from his child’s eyes, he turned
away and walked quickly from the house,
but he was not so quick but that he‘heard
the blessings that followed him. And when
he Walked alone beneath the starry heavens,
he wiped his eyes as though something-
iroubled him.
Gay as a lark was gentle, beautiful Agnes,
when she became the wife of Walter Adams.
The rose bloomed a air: upon her happy
face, like sunshine, 3] the day long.
“Do you pray God to help you to love me
now ‘9” the old man asked, after he had
lived with Walter some two months.
{‘Why, what do you mean ?” Agnes ask-
8( .
“You used to
returned Noah.
A moment the young wife gazed into her
parent’s face, and then she answered, while
she threw her arms about his neck:
“0h, Ipruy that you may be spared to us
for long years in yieace and happiness, but
—-love you ‘2 Oh, could not help it, if I
should try. And Walter loves you,father—-
he loves you very much, for he has told me
so many times.” '
There was something more than usual in
the old man’s eye, now.
One eveniu as the happy trio sat at the
tea-table, Wa ter looked more thoughtful
than was his wont.
"What is it, love 1’” Agnes asked.
“Oh, nothing,” the husband said, with a
smile, “Iwas only thinking."
“01' what ?" ~
“Only castle-buildup" that‘s all.”
“In the air, Walter 2’" asked Noah.
“Yes, very high in the air,” the young
man replied, Willi a laugh.
“But tell" us what it is.” _
“Well, I’d’ as lief tell you as not; Mr. Os-
good is about to retire from our firm in a
few days. He is well advanced in years,
and has made a fortune in the business, and
will now live for comfort and health alone.
He has not been in very good health of late
ears.” -
“And is that all?”
“No. I am to be advanced to the post of
head book-keeper. with a salary of twelve
hundred dollars." ‘
"And”is that all 7”
“But what castle in the air is there about
that ‘2” ‘
“0b,4hat isn’t the castle.” ‘
“Then what is the castle ‘2” urged the old
man. ‘
“Why, simply this," said Walter,laugh-
in , but yet almost ashamed to tell if.
“'1 his noon, Mr. Osgood patted me on the
pray'so, forI heard you,”
shoulder. and he said in his playful way,
‘Wailer, I’ll sell you all of my interest here,
for fifty thousand dollars.” '
“ la, ha, ha i" laughed Noah Breman.
“And you thought he was in earnest ?"
“No, no,” quickly returned the young
man. "I did not think that, though I know
that the other two partners Would willingly
have me for an associate.”
I'But it seems to me lhatMr. OngOd holds
his share in the concern-at a high price."
“Oh no, it’s a very low one. There is a
clear capital of one hundred and fifty thous-
and dollars iu the business at this moment.
And think of all the standing and good will
which goes for nothing.” -
“Ha, ha, ha," laughed the old man again.
Then Walter laughed, and then Agnes
laughed, and then they finished _their slip-
er. .
p On the next evening, Waller Adams came
in and sat down on the sofa without speak-
ing. He was pale and agitated, and his eyes
had a vacant, wandering stare”.-
“Waller-l” criedAghes, in terror, “what
has happened ‘1’”
“He’s sick." muttered Noah Brcnian,
without looking around. '
. “No, no—not sick,” returned the young
mau,startiugup, “but I am the victim of a
miserable trifling ”
“Eh, how so?” asked old Noah, now
turning in his chair.
“I’ll tell you," said Waller, with a spas-
modic effort. “I had some long entries to
post this evening, so I remained In the
counting-room after the rest was gone. I
was still at work when Mr. Osgood came in
and placed some papers on my dcsk,sayiug
as he did 50, ‘Here Walter, these are y urs.’
And then he wen: out. “Then I»had sh-
cd my work I opened the papers. The first
was a sort of an inventory of what Osgood
had owned in the business, and,.t'ooted up
in round. numbers, it amounted to the exact
sum of forty-nine thousand eight hundred
and seventy-five dollars. The next paper
was a deed conveying the Whole vast prop-
erty to me, and making me a partner in the'
concern upon an equal footing with the
other two.”
f‘Well.” said the old man, thumping 11%
foot up0n the carpet, and keeping time with
his hands, “I don’t see anything very bad
in that.”
“But Ido," repliel Walter. “It
to trifle with me thus.” _
There was something in Noah's eye again,
but he managed to qnletly say:
“Walter Adams, when youngmeu used to
hover about my child, I believed they were
only after my gold, and I knew that in most
cases 1 was correct. Ibelieved the same of
but the love of
money that could under is human action.
My heart had become hardened by it, and
my soul darkened. But it was for my sweet
child to pour the warmth and light into my
bosom. t was for her to keep icfore me
the image of the wife whom I had loved and
lost; but, alas, who occupied a place in that
love second to that of my gold. It was for
my childlo open gradually. but surely, the
fouut of feeling which had been for a life-
time closed up. I heard her pray for me—
pray that she might love me—that she might
have help from God to love me; and that
. is cruel
‘was after I refused to let her be your wife.
I saw her grow pale and sorrowful, and I
knew Iliad done it—aud she loved me still.
Siill she pra ed to God to help her—help
her how? elp her love her father! Iwas
killing her and she tried to smile upon me.
One evening I heard on both conversing in
the old but. My chi (i choose misery and
duty to her father, rather than to break
that duty in the union with the man she
loved. And you uttered a prayer. You
prayed that] might be penniless.
“Stop! hear me through! You would
then show your disinterestedness. 'I walked
away and pondered. Could it be that 1
had found a man who would love an old
wreck Iikcmyself, with no money? If it
was so, then it would break the layer of
crust from my soul. I determined to test
y it]. I had gained a glimmering of light—
my heart had begun to grow warm—sand I
prayed fervently that I might not he disap-
inted.
[”91 went to the bank and dyew out fifty
thousand dollars in bills. That night my
miserable but was set on fire—ora-a—caughl
fire. I shall always think it was my candle
did it. But the old shell burned down, and
room was made for a better building. I
came out with the wrong, trunk, and the
other trunk was'burued up. But the money
wasn’t in it. No, no.- I had that stuffed
into my bosom and deep pockets, and all
buttoned up, and the next day 1 carried it
back to the bank, and had it put with a few
thousand more which I had not disturbed.
And so my experiments commenced, and I
found the full sunshine at last. A , Waller

ed for. on took me into your home and
loved me when you thought me penniless,
and you took my child to your bosom for

'my boy, I've been (icing a bit of work in the
dark 'I’ve paid Mr. Osgood the fifty thous-
and dollars in cash for the shaLCin the busi-

just tell ’cm you can put up twenty-two
thousand more at twelve hours’ notice.
Tell ’em old Noah ain’t quite ashore yet.
Tcll’em he has found a heart, my boy!
Come here, Agnes, come here, Waltcrl God

Nobody pretended that they had motes in
their eyes now, for-the occasion ofthe weep-
ing was too plain. .

The Origin of the Connecticut River.
Away up into New Hampshire, 3 long
time since, dwelt a maiden squaw. When
she got over squawkiug andgrowed up, she
was as graceful as an oystermid her step
was as elastic as a gumjurnbber shoe. Her
eyes sparkled like drops of dew in the morn:
ing sunlight; her brt-ath was like the r-
fume of forest flowers, and her nose was ike
the figure four on a fire-engine. Her hair
was as black as an hour after midnighf,an.i
her voice was like the music of mania
waters. There wasn’t a brook that con]
begin to babble as sweetly as she could bab-'
Shewas reared among the shagbarks and
dog barks. Her arithmetic was the golden _
headed studs that hold up the sky, and her
geography was the hills and doles, the rifle
and the rivulels. She couldn’t have spelt
Constantinople correctly if you’d given her
a Whole custard pie to do so. ’
Reuben Feuu was a mighty hunter, and
when for from home he a ore furs. He
couldn’t spell Constantinople either. Thus
Reuben and Wonita seemed to be hitched.
He was skilled in trappingthe deer, and he'
trapped that dear, and where Reuben sighed
for his dear, the winds have sighed ever
since. He married Wonita and Wonita
married Rube. ,
With a three legged camp stool, a coal
scuttle, and a second-hand awning the went

aboriginal father-in-law loved the Great
Spirit, Whiskey, and one day Wonita’s pop
got corned ; then he was pop-'corned,.and he

Rubc’s hair with it, and Rube was gathered
to his fathers. Wonita wept, and the {cits
rolled down into valley and . w. -_iu a
mighty volume that all the calfskins in the
country could not bind, onward to the home
of the lobster and the clam, the oyster and
the crab. And Wonita died and was gather-
cd to her In crs. And thus the Connecti-
cut became stream; those tears ,did' it.
Rube left one progeny, it was a he one, and-
they gave him no paragoric in his childhood -
and he grew to be a mighty warrior, and-he
went a-auuning, shooting cents of from
forked sticks until he died, and was gathered
' to his grandmothers. And to this day Where
