ACNT HABEL'3 STORY. BY EDNA BEOOK. CONCLUSION. A. few years pas sed away before I ' ard anything of my early friend, and 2n, quite in an accidental way; I rrned that her husband was dead. d that she had gone with her boy to ide near her friend in Inverness, I i. aid not write to her, for I had no aas of ascertaining her address, and the time passed on. I heard no more of Isabel Willowby " ' ' on-j morning.four months ago. while .- staying with your uncle Ilarry, Njliabury, I wa3 startled and surged to receivo a short note from v ''Come to mo at once, if you it Baid, "my boy ia dyine.I have Itiend near come to me I" These ..11 its contents, and you will not jt. lev thai as soon as possible I set ;t n my journey. I arrived there in the evening of the next day, I aad no diffictlty in finding the e to which I had been directed. i ;el herself met me at the door and " ; ed me in her arms. Poor, poor . - wjI! how sadly changed since that . gut summer's day, so many year3 . j. when last I had seen her, radiant ' licr wifely joy and maternal pride, t : van, so wasted she now appeared, ? ilia a look of deeply eeated despair !-d settled on her lace. But she shed s.- t . ars; even whenI asked for her sen, she replied with apparent calmness, IIe is dying; they tell me there is no hope." She insisted on, my taking some refreshments before proceed i.o the sick chamber; she waited on me in a mechanical way, scarcely speaking, except to thank me for coming to her so speedily. I inquired if she had any of her own fanily with her, but she shook her head and answered she had seen nothing of them since she left Inverness, three or four years previously. Afterwards I understood why the intercourse had thus declined. As soon as I was a little rested, Isabel led the way to her son's room. 1 1 a was lying on the bed in a sort of stupor, his eyes closed, and his fair t.alr tossed jback from his noble brow; tat, O Gracie! in every line of that wasted, but once handsome face I coul l see the traces of constant dissipation. His right arm lay bandaged outside the counterpane; it was not till some time after I collected the particulars of the accident' which- had laid him on what was to prove the bed of death. Gordon Stewart was right when he said, years before, that his nephew would be brought up under a seif-in-da'gent system, and to a boy of Cyril's temperament it proved a fearfully fatal one. Amiable and yielding to an extreme, te lacked moral courage; he was never taught to say "No" to any fascica:iDg.temptation that came in his way. As he grew to manhood, he fell an easy prey to bad habits and depraved associates, and now for several months past he bad scarcely been knorn to come home sober more than one r ight in a week. At last the end, th. tad end case. He had gone out shoo'ing one afternoon with a party of Li wild companions, and after two or thiee hours' sport they had entered a wayside inn, where a couple more hour" were spent in carousing and sinful merriment, till all were more or les3 intoxicated. At last it wa3 profu.tu to return to the city and finish the evening at a noted ambling house. - A3 they were leaviDg one of the young men took up Cyril's gun in mistake for his own, insisting that it was his. Argry and excited, young Willowby ecder vored to wrest it from him ; the gun was loaded, and went off in the jcufil lodging the contents in Cyril's right arm, which was completely shattered. At a late hour that night the almost lif'ele?3 body of her son was brought Lone to the distracted mother. The recti. :-killlul doctors were sent for, but racing fever had ensued, and no hope could be given that the young man'ti life might be saved. And there ! on that bed he lay only twenty-two and the lamp of life slowly dying out! The doctor camo in as we stood there and examined the injured limb. The poor mother epoko not as he replaced the bandages and came to her eido. "You must be prepared for the worst, my dear madam," ho said, gepily. ' Is there no hope, doctor?" I whispered. '5cna whatever," he replied; "his constitution has been so injured by constant excesses he has no strength or pewer to stand against such an accident, which to a young man of steady and sober habits would have been a comparatively light one, involving the lussofthe limb, and nothing more. IJut ia this case it is unhappily different; rapid mortification has set in. and in a few hours all wiH be over. I can do nothing more than has been done, but 1 will look in again later' As he left the room, Cyril opened his eyes, and there was agleam of con eciousnesi in them. "Mother," he faintly whispered, ' heard what he said; I know I am dy ine: chl why did you teach me to love the strong drink that has killed me? O mother 1 lam dying I you have rumul me, body and soul! and with a convulsive groan be relapsed into utter insensibility. He never spoke seain. Through the long hours of that nightwe watched by his bedside, hoping, praying, oh I how fervently, fcr another gleam of consciousness; "but there was no sign. Isabel had heard the last words from the lips of her idolized boy. The doctor came in later, as he had promised, and stood with us, but no human skill could avail now; and wLeu the morning's sun aroje it looked upon a lifeless body lying there the spirit of Cyril Willowby had passed awayJorcver. And his dying words like a poi goned dagger they rankled in the heart of his bereaved and agonized mother I lhc constant thought that to her her boy ascribed his ruin, was mora than she could bear it killed her. "'label," she said to me onco after, iha oalv time she referred to that aw ful right, "it is trite; I would not take isice I ruined. I killed my boy I" For two months she lingered, slowly fad'iD,? day by day; you may be sure I sever lettner again, x mea imrrt to her the consolations of religion I ried to point her to a loving and sympathising bavior. (iod grant my f-ifsrii have not been in vain 1 I nev?r kuew how far she received the Tilth no immediate daDgerhad been antic pated but one night she passed sway quietly, painlessly a falling asleep in time, to awaken in eternity ' Diet' of a broken heart" might truthfally have been inscribed upon her tmsb-tone. Gracie, dear, my story ia . J : it has a lesson for you. Never jei viar boy have reason to say in ref- - - eitbsr ! this lifj or that which io's cjiS f civ fii oi tc-ir as .,; . label er.I.i her ?n m;V-;

besida litr. who. frr the new posses'slon, at cnee dropped the plaything tht had charmed him so long, uraco picked up the stopper and replaced it in the decanter, then throwing her arms round her kind relative, she exclaimed earnestly: "Auntie, dear auntie I I thank you for your story; my boy shall never, if I can help it, know the taste of anything stronger than waterl" And Aunt Mabel, smiling brightly, though the tears were yet wet upon her cheeks, replied: "Keep that resolution, my dear child, and then my story will not have been told in vain." National Temperance Advocate. Bye and Indian Bread. We find this in the Western Rural: Take one quart corn-meal, nearly as coarse as the country "samp" or the city "hominy," and scald it thoroughly with boiling water. Half pint syrup (if you wish it), and water enough, with one quart rye meal, to make as stiff a dough as you can; stir with a large spoon. Mix thoroughly and put in a deep pan or kettle, making a loaf three or four inches thick. Smooth it over with wet hands, and set it on the top of the stove to rise, letting it stew and bake on the bottom, but not burn. In an hour and a quarter or more it will show wide cracks over the surface. Then put in an oven and bake quite brown. Let it stand in the oven three or four hours, or all night. It makes a nice breakfast loaf good warm or cold and will cut moist and sweet for several days. Yeast and soda should never be used with corn-meal. One spoils its delicate sweetness by souring it, the other by burning it. B A I LUOAU TIME-TAM.E. (Corrected November 24th, 1869.) EransTllle fc Crawfordsrllle B.R. eOLNO NOETH. Leave 'Mall. Expr.
