From Chambers' Journal. A Woriingman's Story. other died before I can remetnnd lather when I was about 16, I haven't no brothers or sisters; , is I found work to be short about - way, and heard there was good v " ?s earning up in the West, I and r her started off till we came to a ' l we'll call Truebridge, and for t... raatter it ain't so far from the v ! name. We got work to do there, i igh the pay was poor, but food things were cheaper than at Man--, ter; and I've staid on ever since, got used to it, so that I'm bound ve there now, unless the whole 3 goes to smash. v ten l was a Kia at lessons, me iv aster asked me one day to write my ovn name on a great black slate. I oit knew my letters tbeD, and bo I , Aa down JAKE. "That's Jake," , ys master-"that ain't Jaek;" and hey all began a-laughing because I culdn t spell, since tnen the name s , i ick to me. My mate brought it w th him wnen we came Here, so ijt it's always: "Morning. Jake;" .Lend us a penny, Jake; I II have voir cnrl3, Jake, ana so on. taint married now; but as to : ether I ever shall be or not, I ain't re a bit, and that's all about it. ) Ve been sweet on one or two girls; i Ily Howe, as lives up Back street, I s very near spliced to, and I don't id tailing how that came to be broi t D Off. Ve were flitting on a stille together M 3 ': night; I remember it wasaSatur1 because Polly had just been buythings for next week from the .- res we factory hands havo started to-operative, you know when th.re came over two young fellows, ' hand lean, and one of them with front teeth showing. They were ; .r h dressed in bltek, and instead of og on, turned round to look at us. w, no fellow likes that whenbe's - Arethearting, so I said pretty sharp: V hat's tho game, matey?" They 1 n't answer at first, but kept on shakT g their heads; then he with the tit 9 mouth says very quietly: You're o-i the broad road, my friend." That's better than being always on t broad ria," I answered, and t aghtl'd riled him, for he turned ;n, and shoved his hand into his ( t-pocket, but it was only to present i t act at me. Take this sinner," says he. I'd e let it alone, only Polly would j it; and then he grinned at her, ! asked ber to go to their new tabtele, and said she she was a stray ' c b in the bands of the devouring w f. I knew he meant me. so I ped down and asked him to fight, 1 he made off tolerably quick I can an it!: you. JLJct rolivs never been the .fxe after that. She goes to their tings regularly, and savs buying , series after sundown on Saturday is ... ced and kissing's wicked. For all ' h - she's thick as thieves with the - np that gave us the tract, and she . 1 roe a letter to say we weren't to La anything more to each other. I've g't it now: it's this: ' Dear Jake: I write this to say 1 : - : I can't havo you. You're too lull ot :!esh and new wine: you're too much of .he world. You re too fond of ing. Remember, Jalcr (here ain't . artier dogs in the celestial city. O, ..'.ike, my soul's safety won't let me .-'if ik to you again; but minister says : ou'll plow up that proud, stony rt, and ask his forgiveness for . t you said, thera'll be a hope for still. Yours truly. Polly Howe. " P. S. I'm going to be married to iater next week." v-rell, you may be sure I didn't at--. 1 the wedding; but one day pass- :. by their chapel, I got a paper .st into my hand, and found it was a : t called The Hough's Road to Ruin. ' ad three pages; but when I found iid that only they who went to chapel would go to heaven, and , ninety nine out of every hundred is must be lost, 1 just laid it down, thinks I to myself, if there was a -oat, but the misters offered to p ma on at high wages, I wouldn't touttho others; neither would I .away from a fight, but stick by . mates, even if I got worst offj for 's what I call doing what's right, i . if so be it means sneaking off, and ng onc's-self by dropping on otbeople. why, it ain't in my line ; and . tore the tract up, and lit my pipe 1 it. 'ou'll be wondering now, perhaps, old I am, A bit less than you ik, it's likely, for we factory lads tly do our courting young. I w I was born on the first of Augand my own notion is that I am nfy. bat it maybe a year more or ; I ain't quite sure. Anyhow, it's years good since first I came to tebridge. came with another fellow, as I I before, for father was gone, and mills knookine off to halt-pay, and aving a notion to see the world, ught I might as well tramp about it to find out what was doing in cr parts. Bill Jenkins was an oru, same as I, and thought with me t it wasn't any use to stay and be ved. So, having talked of it times, - fixed at last to start on a Sunday, got sixteen shillings, for I sold off ry stick father had left, as ail that ot no use to me; and Bill be got it or nine I forget which. It was . ' weather, the middle of June, and 1 a jolly time of it at first; only, . as we would, there wasn't anything do. People were everywhere ibarging their own workpeople, so :'i i we strangers had but a poor ace. ell, we went on and on, still the " ie, only that our money was quite e ; then we separated. Bill thought t 1 re'd be a chance up London-way .1 struck on to the West, because . 1 heard things were beginning to k up a bit about there. shan t easy torget the first time I ' ok to sing for a hviug; that was day after I'd parted with Bill. It . 1 in a big town, and I felt fit to "' ke with shame. 1 d suns through the best streets without taking thing, and began to be precious ... :, when 1 heard: Mere, boy; and 1 re was an old woman standing at door with a cup of tea and some : s ad and butter, uiantltuok in - 1, and didn't I bless tho old lady cold done, and she gave me t! eeDence for abed! t gave me heart, that did, to go 00, ugh I got thinner and thinner; ; 1 knew anything was better than ping to rot at the workhouse, . ere they bring you down with bul- - a and poor food, till the pluck's out of you, and you ain't fit for ' iht but to be a pauper. L) it came about at last, after I'd ;n ia this way about a fortnight, 1 : it one Jay I got to the town of

1 you, 1 sioucnel aown niga otreer, on tho darkest 3iue: the one or two bobLies I passed looking after me pretty Bharp; and the baker, where I went to buv a loaf with my last brown. watchincr ma and his bread as if he thnnht I was ft masnetizer. and could mesmerize Lis threepence-halfpenny crusties into my cap and pocxets witn nvt tnnnhinfr them. Presently, I came to the bridge, and looked over. There was a black, smelly river, such as we have in Lancashire, and several tall chimneys, so I knew they did some xma or lactory, work. I d no money to pay tor lodging, and I thought I might happen on an empty snea Dy Keeping aiong me banks. I went through a turnstile, and passed two or three of the great buildings full of windows, reminding me of home, and the time when thought all tramDS were thieves, and held it great sport to go out at niht witn two or three more, ana anve them mad with chaff and pea-shoot ers. After I'd got on a bit, the river crat broader, and branched into at least it seemed so at first; only when I'd come there I found it was a brook running into the mainstream. I turned off along it, for thero looked to be something of a stack ahead; when, passing a clump of withy trees, who should I see on the other eide but a little chap fishing away all by himself. 1 stood to look, for he didn t see me. but kept pulling them out quite fast with a willow-branch for rod, and a bit of bread-paste on his hook. He'd soon got about a dozen, of two or three ounces each ; and they lay jumping about on the grass, near getting in again sometimes, only he didn't seem to care, but went on as hard as ever. My mouth watered, for though they were raw, they'd be a relish for my dry bread; and I don't know but what, if he'd been on the Bame side of the water, I mightn't have taken them without more said, though I'm tolerably honest, too; but hunger does try one, and no mistake. Anyhow, I called out: "Give us one matey 1" He looked up, undoing his line, and wrapping the fish in grass, and then he began to cross the Drook on stepping-stones, with the water about up to his knees, and then he came on as bold as brass, and Bays he: "Who are you?" to be continued.!
