I tried to cx;vs my thanks lor tiie poor pittance, but the words stuck in ray throat. Twenty-five dollars! What sh.ill I do ? My bill at tile store is iKar!y that. Ami the doctor besidea attending my wile through her iilm'ss with fever, has been Called in several times to the children. I cannot expect him to doctor i:.e for nothing. In two weeks we must leave for Conference, and pay slajje. hire for two hnudreri miles. Twenty-live Collars ! and there is a quarter's rent to be paid six dollars and a quarter. l!nt idle despondency w ill not accomplish any thins;. I must up anil be doing?. My bill at the store w.-.s just twenty dollars. Not many charges ajjinst me for luxuries. Taid it, and took a receipt. Enough money left to pay the rent. That has been settled. And now what is there left for th-i doctor? Nothing? Yes, then; is (he old horse. Bat what shad I lo on my next circuit? I can't walk around it. And if 1 (sell ,ay horse to pay the doctor, whero will the money come from to pay stage fare to Conference ? Truly, I am in a great strait. ISnt why should I feel troubled? All will come out rijht. The Captain of our salvation will not send His faithlul sol.fer out to battle at his own a f dthful "ot.W ! A I Hull U I SOli.HT: ' the. ground of my ad been as faithful ', charge. But have I been Alas! no. And there lies the want of confidence. If I had as I should have been, I would not fear. Well ! I have been to see the doctor. I roue over, and wai.kku home. lie looked grave wheu he saw me. lie knew inv errand, and expected, no doubt, a poor mouth, if nuta diel.iruiiou tiiat I had nothing to pay l.ini. When I :-.sked for his bill, he took it Irom his desk and I huuded it to rrs It was already nmile out. fie : knew the. Conference year wasup. How Iden't ; know, for he is not a member of our church. i The bill was twelve dollars. Not a heavy or unreasonable charge. , "I am going toseil my horse, Doctor," I said, lifter leai i.:::g liie amount cue, "and will iheu : settle your bill." ! This did not seem to satisfy him. lie sat : with his eyes upon the lljor lor some moments, I and then said ; "How much do you expect to g- t for your ' horse ?"' "I can't te!!, Doctor," I replied. "I paid; twenty dollars for him, tiud he has turned cut 1 better thau I expected. 1 suppos that he oujjht ' to bring the same that I gave tor him." "Let's look at hiiii," he said, rising and going ' towards the door. "Not much to brag of'."' he remarked, half contemptuously, alter eyeing my poor old horse for a little while. ; I felt somewhat indignant, more tit his man- ! tier thau his words. I hail become attached to . my horse, and could not bear to hear hi:n spo- ' keu of so lightly. "Ho is a patient beast, and can endure much ' fatigue," I replied. "Has he no fault?" As the Doctor asked this he eyed me with a penetrating luck, evidently ' to detect anv thing like a falsehood in mv reply. riiis for a moment made, me feel ait emotion of anger; but in the next I had furuiveu him. Foor mau : Did he think I would put my soul iu jeopar.iy lor a ievv dollars? 'He has luil one serious fault." I returned. "lie stumbles." "He stumbles, does be ? ' r.t any pric, if ha should ' A dear bargain break his owucr's neck . j "Ho has not broken nay neck," I said. "Xo but he may do :t before) ou -;et home . villi hiai. The pitcher tln.t lias been t the . well liiiKdy-uiue times may be broken at the hiiiit:red:h time." "Very true. But I am not in any concern on that in count." "Well, what do you expect to get for him ? ' "I shall try to get as much us 1 g,tve lor, him " i "You'll not be abli to do that, an old broken down hank like him don't bring goo 1 prices in ' these parts. You paid too uiuo.il lor hi:u by live dollars." "Do you think so ?" I us' ed. Certainly I do. And more than that I know S FO. I eouin have bought him (or iilteen dollars i the day before yon oavo tventy for him." j This information pained me a good deal; not on account of the rive dollars I had overpaid,! but because a man who hud giren me every ; reason to think well of him ever since I lived' here, should have deliberately done sjevil an j act, as lo charge me, a poor preacher, five dollars more for a horse, than he had oliered him for only tho day before. ; "If you choo.se," sidd the Doctor, "I will take i your i-.orse ai inieen colors, and pay you the difference between lhat sum and my Lii'l. You wiil find it bard to make a kale of bim, I am inclined to tiiiiik." This tier I had the decision of mind at once to decline. The doctor wus not pleased at my refusal. And I thought there was something in Ilis manner tiiat saitl 1 didn't iutenu lo pay him if I could h-l: it. I felt this deeply. Bjt my determination was fixed. "If you choose to take him at twenty dollars, aud pay me tho difference, you cau tio so," 1 replied. "If net, I shall make the effort to tell him elseivhere, and then settle your bill." Seeing that I was iu earnest, after grumbling a good dual, he finally paid me eih't dollars ill nieuey, receipted my bill, and took' my horse. 1 thea walked home, a distance of some three miles, thankful lhat my doctor's bill was i.ft of my mind, and quite disposed to look up for aid. On the next day nu t a man riding my old horse. Slopped iiim and nsked what he had paid. Tweuly-iive dollars he said. Doctor has asked thirty, but twenty-live was all be would give. Thought he Imti mace a very good bargain. Told U.-otlu-r I) whiitl h.idiione, and what the doctor had said about the horse having keen offered at Iilteen dollars. i'ouud that this was not so that twenty-live had been askmi for tho animal, before I came, that the owner put the price to me at twenty becau.se 1 was a preacher. Doctor , lie "said, was a great lover of money, and had been known to sell a widow's cow more thau oace for his fee 1 Unhappy man 1 If thy s 'til idiouid be required of tiiee this night, whose would all these things be, that thou art setting thy heart upon How will all these read, when thy book of life is opened in th- other world?

Iu live days more we muM start for P . l?ut how are we to get there ? Only live dollars in money and my wii'e must have a new bonnet. She cannot go to Conference in that old soi led, misshapen thing, which has already been worn lor two years. IK-r clothes are in a poor state. But there is no remedy lor tiiat. Siioes will have to be bought. Well, what is to ba done ? Sell our beds and bedding? What else can we ila? I have no money to go to Conference, and yet I must go there. Wile conldn t bear this thought. The beds had been given lo her by her mother when we were martied. "We shall want be.;s jastas much on our new circuit as on this," she said. "True, ."Mary. Hut how are we to get Ihere ? And yeu know we can't stay here. This is no longer our home. Our only course is to go to Conference, and trust to the Lord beyond lint. He h is taken care of us thus far, and wiil not leave us nor forsake us. While we were yet talking, Urolher V C3me ia. He had ridden over from M to tell me that there was a school vacant, with an income of four hundred dollars, that could be had for me if I had any wish t,i i.roAiE. I saw Mary's face brighten at this intelligence, particularly as Brother T went o:i to in scribe the neat little cottage provided for the teacher, with its gardeu, shrubbery and fruit trees. How mv poor heart fluttered ! Hete was an offet of ease and compet-nce, with the hle.ed privilege of being always with my fainilv. Oil Ihe other hand, all was doubt and uncertainty. I was reduced to the lowest ebb. Yearly lia.l my little i means wasted away, aud 1 w.,s growin r "poorer and poorer. My horse was Knne alla xw money expended, and I must sell my l,i and l-dtlinr in ortier to gvt the means whereby to reach Cmiforenre. Tiie temptation wm s-tuuij.

Let us be careful how we look back. Hitherto the lord has helped us. We have had many fears, and have too often suffered ourselves to fall into doubt and distrust.

Sijnor D'Alvear went out to California nearly two years ago, in consequence of certain information j which be bad received of the geological character of , that country, with the firm bs lief that vast mines of , precious meals would be revealed there, upon carej ful investigation. He was encouraged to this cnlrr- . prise, also, by his confidence in the powers of a cer- , lam magnetic instrument which he had ineem.M 25 called the "Goldometer,'' by w hose aid he expected to Si ! be din cu d at once to the "Gold Placers," if any 25 , such existed. Nor were his expectations disappoint25, ed. His scientific calculations proved to be founded 25 j in truth and profound wisdom, and his new instru25 ment, the "Goldometer." fulfilled his highest 1.,,. 9S 1 In les l..n t - ....' . . . . . , , . r . ... . - si .ouo. u inn rexciinig laiuoruia, h struck upon one oflhe richest gold mines in that country, upon an obscure branch of the Sacrament, river, in a gorge of hills extremeH rocky and difficult of access, and seldom visited by the native Californians. Disguising his object under the pretenc. of purely ciriuitic research, lie obtained lite aid ol some liftrrn or twenty simple and faithful Indians, and steadily pursued bis task, collecting often mora than tt.000 worth of r-old in a;,.v1.i..- .. i. : .. i. u 15 j concealed in a dee-p ravine, wiihout exviiing any sus25 picion w hatevrr, until after the discovery of gold at 15 Capt.

It is now found lhat the real 25 j mines or source, ofthe gold, lie in the gorge, of t! 25 , mountains, and not in the beds or sands of the rivers 25 Previous lo leaving California, Signor D'Alvear sold ) his in.trument, the Goldomcier, a very imperfect 25 tone, for 3,000 dollars. Ihe person who purchased 35 j it confidently expected to make a handsome fortune by simply finding "gold placers" and selling out th. 25 right of digging to the gold workers. 1 MANUFACTURE t F IHE G 01.DOMF.TKH. & PUBLICATION- OF THE GUIDE.
