Y. eity some years ago and it'was arranged for him that he should put up. at the Astor House. It was herc that his brethren expected to meet him; his social and denominational appointments had reference to the Astor House as his headquarters. When Mr. Cartwright, however, ap. peared at the Astor there was nothing in his backwoods appearance that suggested to its proprietors his worthy position among the fathers of Methodism; when,. therefore, he requested to be shown to his room, he was cavalierly turned over to aservent to show him up stairs. Up stairs they went—up, up, up—>Mr. Cartwright in wondering amazement lost, the servaut apparently untiringin his amusemecut of ascending. Finally the servant opened the door of an apartment up in the attic story, and pointed it out to Mr. C. as his room.— Father Peter detained the servant while he should take a general survey of the premises—repeated the inquiry if this was the room he was to occupy—and at length appearing to be well satisied, he disposed of his baggage, and very politeely requested the servant to be good enough to show him down stairs again. The servant preceded Father Cartwright down, down, down, till they reached at lengthethe street landing; but, before'the servant could make his escape, Peter inquired if he wouldn’t please to show hign up again! So up they went again héavenward, and at last Pgter fouund his room, and permited the servant ‘to depart in peace. The serviant however had little more than found himself down stairs, when Uncle Peter rang the bell vigorously. In due time up came the servant, by this time panting. with the unususgl exertion. 3 s

i (“My good friend I am sorry i 6 trouble you but I should be glad to see the clerk it you will be kind enough ‘to send him to my room.” , “0, certainly.” : And:so down, down goes the servant to say to the clerk that a singular old chap up in the upper story wanted him to come to his room. And, then up goes Mr. Clerk. ‘ © “Are you the clerk?” - ; “ Yos, sl ; “Well, you'll place me under great obligations to you, it you will show me the way down stairs!” * - : And when-once more down stairs, af< ter Uncle Peter had taken another careful survey of the surroundings, the clerk very politely inquire;i if there was anything further -he could do for him. i s Yes, says Unele Peter, yes, my friend I would be greatly obliged to you for a broad-axe.” : :

“A broad-axe!” says Mr. Clerk in astonishment, “and what do you propose to do with a broad-axe?? “I thought I should like to blaze my way to my room! L | It is needless to say that Peter Cartwright was the lion of that week at the Astor; and it was not further required of him to elimb that endless series of stairways—but, when his friends called to mquire for, or call upon hiw; they found him snugly ensconsed in one of the most eligible rooms in the house. . gy The leading ministers of New York and Brooklyn have fat salaries. Henry Ward Beecher says a New York paper has a yearly salary of $5,000 and a parsonage rent, free, and "that, with his literary earnings, his income is $12,000.. E. H.

BORN TO. 600 D LUCK = BY COL. WALTER B. DUNLAP. Harry Clare was a gobd natured generous kindly dispesed fellow, who loved cheer and easy life; and whose faults were of that open hearted character which seldom meet with severe censure When Harry was not Harry—that is before his parents had given him a name—an old womati who claimed to be his god mother, pronounced these ‘mystic words ovet the future Harry:— ‘The child is born to good luck! So deep an influence did this fa’r socth have upon the minds of the simple peasants, that they were led to regard master Harry—when they had thus named him—as a wonder. A thousand things occurrediduring his boyhood to confirm them in their conviction. He got wet but didn’t get cold. He fell from trees and high beams, and didn’t get hurt. And at school he accomplishcd marvels. i e g The result of all this was, that Har~ ry grew up with the same faith.” He believed most firmly that he was born under “the' benign influence of some: lucky planet, and that the world ‘could not do ill with him. When he had done going to school, he learned the blacksmith’s trade, and when he was able to work for himself he took a wife —took iusan Martin—gentle, pretty loving, faithful Susan. Her parents objected to the match, beeause, they“ said, Harry had not energy enough to. carry him through the i‘m’f{d, with the" care of a family on his shoulders. But Susan loved him, and she be&eamef_hisl wife. . ¢ S e ; .

. “‘Didn’t I tell you that T was born to good luck,” eried the happy Harry, a few days after he was majried. 'Haven't 1 got the best wife in the town? .

“There isn’t a better one in tlie country, replied the young man to'whom he had spoken. And I hope you’ll appreciate her, Susgn Martin might have had her pick among a dozen of the best young men in the village, and t,hege’sh"not or’;é;g}é’ﬁ%ﬁem bgﬁ w'%\il,d have made her a good husband. See to it, ‘Harry, thaﬁ%ﬁg never has cause to re~ the step she has taken.” « - ‘Ot “course she can never regret, said the exultant husband. T tell yon L was born to good luck, and ;my fortunate star never'edan fail me e o 7 His friend shook his head and walks ed away, and Harry went to his shop, where he found half a dozen customers waiting .for him, and some of them growling because he had not been there before. : ' Five years passed away,@nd Harry had three children. One evening he entered his house, and found Susan with a cloud on“her brow. He asked her what was the matter. ~ ; ‘Shall I tell you the truth Harry?’ she said, trying to smile. | ! ; ‘Of course you must; so out with e T : “Then it is simply this: We are going behindhand. } ‘Behindhand? repeated the husband. What do you mean?” -~ g ‘Why—your business is not attended to as it should be. You are forgets ting your own interests.”s L - ‘Pshaw! Don’t worry, Susan. Just wait until you see me make a haal. I made twenty dollars this%ay on a horse trade.’ AT s :

‘And how much did you make by your trade yesterday?’ : ‘Why—returned Harry, hanging his head; I lost something there. But I'll make it up.* I was born to good luck and I know- that fortune can’t desert me. Don’t worry, Susan.’ ‘But Harry, said” tne wife, in a mild impressive tone, you'don’t realize how much -you are losing. If you would trust more to your wit and judgement, instead of to your luck ag you ecallit, you might do better, eve% ‘at trading horses, and such stuff; but belicte me, you would do better to stick to your shop, and do the work you would be sure to have there. Only see how much work goes out of town, because you are not found at your forge when wanted. 19 aniese g ‘Let them carry their ‘work out of town, if they wish to,’ said Harry rathpetulantly. ‘I shan’t worry. Just you wait until I strike a streak of good ek, CEe TR LR ~ Believe me, Harry,’ the wife said, as she arosc from her chair with her babe in her arms, 4f ever you strike that streak of luck, as you are so often ‘pleased to call it, you will strike it on Youranvl® . e o o . Busan :went to put her child in its little bed, and Harry said pooh! and then took up ¢ Bewspaper and began t 2 soie WL e G 1 Harry knéw that hé was neglecting his regular business, but then he hoped for something better. So firmly had ‘the Q}dfﬂiﬁhfﬁ!'%ﬁa* tuek become seat-‘ed-in his mind that it had grown' to be ‘a part of his very existence. -He felt gure that some day he would m;tbe a fortune, when people least expected it Ho had hoard of vast fortunes being ade by mere: strokes: of luck, and why sbould not "he, who-was born to that ‘end ‘Tare a 5 well:~The. result

‘was, that his mind became distracted from his shop, and his customers were often forced to find another smith to do their work: . . i Harry traded watches, traded horses, dipped into petty speculations, and, in in short, seized upon everything which ‘presented itself, with a lucky. side to it At length a streak came. He drew a hundred dollirs in a lottery. He went home with ‘exultation in his countenance. TR s qt's commenced,” he cried, as he chinked the gold before his wife. . . ‘And you've drawn that in a lottery?’ returned Stsan, with a dubious look. “Yes—a cool hundred.’ S - ‘Will it pay your debts, Harry?” . ‘Eh? Debts?” » ; L “Will it make up for the time you have lost.’ LR e ] ‘But this is only the beginning, Susan: I’ve only just struck the streak Wait awhile. My luck is coming. I. tell you T was born to it and it can’t fail me.” . e | Ah Harry, said the wife, with a sad shake of the head. ' I fear this will be the worst luck you have had yet. ‘lt is only the ignis fatus that will lcad‘ you deeper into the mire than you have{ yet gone. Why not drop such'schemes at once and go into your shop and stick | to your business. It would. be better]‘ for you in the end—it will be better for you now. ' ‘1

"~ What—leave my fortune_ just as.l have found it exclaimed Hzi"i-ry, vehemently. No, no. ‘I had a dream—twice repeated—and that makes three times you know—that I should have ldck in these kind of ventures, and 1 am going to follow em up. Just you wait my dear!’ e And Susan did wait. She waited until she suffered more than she would tell. She waited until the bloom was gone from her cheek and the brightness {rom her eye. From moru till night she plied her needle without ceasing.— Her children must have food and raiment, and she must furnish them.— She plead with her husband but he would not sec She pointed out to him how he was losing both business and friends, but he would only look to the futare, whence his good luck was sure to come. So Susy wasgforced to look to the future also, and, she prayed that it might bring relief : ~ 'Tor a whole year Harry dabbled in lottery tickets, and at the end of that time he had lost almost every penny he had been able to raise. He grew despérate, and resolved that he would make a heavy strike somewhere.— ‘Strike upon your anvil,’ svhispered a voige; but he would not listen to it.— ‘I was born to good luck, and it must come sooner or later,” he said to himself; and then he tried to study up some new speculation. He was sitfing all alone in; his little office—a pen-like apartment in the back of his forge, where he kept his books—when two men entered his shop. “T'his is too-bad! said one of them, whose name was Atherton, an extensive builder, as he saw there was no fire in the forge and no workman in the shop. We must have a new smith in this place. Hete have I over five hundred dollars wotth of work that must be done the present season. There’s all the forging to be done on Grant’s new mill, and the iron work for the upper bridge.’ L “There’s one thing certain, rejoined the other, who" was a. contractor, andhad some interest in the builder’s work, we shan’t get anything done here.’ “T'hat’s so,” said Avherton. And with this the two men left the shop” = When* Harry went home to supper he found ‘his wife quite sick. She was pale and weak, and her head ached. In the evening~ he went out for the doector, and when the man of medicine| came he said that Susan was down with a severe: fevers:d Lo BEE. e i ‘She must have got cold, suggested Qlare: .. - : . ~ No, she has overtasked herself, returned the doetor, with' a shrug of the shoulders. Both mind and body seems to have becn worked too much? . For the first time Clare felt a real op-erating-pang at his heart. He knew why Susan must have worked so hard, though he had not thought of it with any seribusness before. . - " - But Harry’s thoughts were unot allowed to rest quiet for the want of pick~ ing. - One evening, as he was wending his way homeward from the Doctor’s; where he had been to get some ‘medicine, he noticed that a'party e&ﬂ?encg men. were walking in advance of him.

‘He knew by the sound of their voices that they were friends of his, and " he would have advanced and joined them had he not chanced to hear Hi§ own ‘name pronounced. Curiosity to know what they had to say led ‘him to approach them ‘without being' observed, and he heard their conversation ‘disthoply, o T . It's too bad, 'said one in ﬁ&jféel_ing tone, Harry. Clare might do well if he only would. Only look at haiﬁ&fi.f@?f his{ . Thig town. never éﬁgtéféé? 1 better one. Seehow the 9001’4-?14%‘3? W@b’ bed aud slaved to support *ﬁ’ self and,

. That's gO, rejoined another, who was ‘the tailor in the village. . L . She has done more work for me with-~ In two years past, than any two women in the village; and within the past six months she has worked beyond all ac~ counts. . About ull that she and her children have had for food and clothing must have been earned by her needle. - It’s a shame, resumed the firet speaker. Onlya day or two after Harry was married I told him he had got a good a wife as there was in the country, and I hoped, he would appreciate her. He said of courge heshounld. 'But just see how it’s come out. I gotmarried about the same time, and went into business when he did, and m¥’ trade isn’t anywhere near as good as his—yét I have bought'a house and, paid for it, and have something laid up beside. Why —had he only stuck to his business he mwight have been one of the most prosperous men in the' town. But he ttinks he was born to some good luck that’ll come to him some of these days like a fairy's gift. . ‘ - Well, remarked a third person of the party, he did have a stroke of good laek when he got Susan Martin. for a wife; but he has never had one since. Unless, added the previous speaker. unless we call the possession of her a continuous stroke of tuck! But I'm afraid he won't keﬁ\ her long. Alas, for poor Susan! ‘Harry don’t know what a jewel be is wearing away. He don’t realize that when he got her for a wife he got a good piece of good fortune that might have lasted during the longest life-time, if he would only have taken his share of the trustand respousibility. i - At this point Harry bad to turn. off from the main street, and in'a few moments he was left to Lis own rofleetions. As soon as he was alone he stopped and gazed down upon the ground; and thus he stood for some minutes; - | I think I am waking up, he finally said. | And then he walked quickly towardg hig-house. : : Susan was much better, and the medicine which he had bought helped speedily to revive her. ©On the following day he'went tosee Mr Atherton and found that gshtleman just entering his chaise to rideaway. = . \ I understand that you have some work in my line which you want done, said Clare. - S Well—what of it? returned the builger. oo ol e i e

~ I should like to. do it for you sir, said Clare. | You, Mr Clare? v Yes, sir? : . But I must have it done in time, said Atherton,. . o If 1 take the job, I'll do it ag I promise. : ‘ : Fut this is something new? I thought you were born to some other kind of luck, replied Atherton with surprise. Perhaps I was, answered Harry readily; but of that kind of luck I have had enough; and now I'm going to hammer out a luck for myseif. Will you Tet me corgmence upon your work? ' Ye, sir, cried! the builder leaping from his chaise. - Here John, he added turning to his hired man, you mdy put the horse up, I shan’t wanthim. And now, he resumed wo Harry, just come into the house and we will talk the matter over. I was ready to start for Marlowe to get'my work doue there; so you see, you didn’t come a minute too soon. Bl adhen e it 8 The result of the con{erence was that Harry was to do all of the iron work Atherton might want, and he was assured that there would be eight hundred dollars’ worth of it' before the year Wasout, )U2 S o mehogw 0k e Gl

One morning the people who lived near the blacksmith’s: shop were startled by the clang of the heavy hammer. It was but little after sunrise, and yet the blows. upon the old anvil rang clear and loud, and they saw black smoke rolling up from two of the chimueys. They went and peeped in at the door, and- there they saw Harry Clare, with his stout arm bared to the’ shoulder, wielding his hammer with strange ‘energy. A new man ‘was at work .at the second forge, and the two apprentices had something else to do than to lounge about, and cobble old horseshoee s RLB eßeaii OBRGN

Susan Clare sat in the great rocking chair by the kitchen “stove, for her old mother who had come to nurse her, said that she was well enough for that.— She ' gazed up at the clock ‘and wondered ‘where her husband was: It was past seven, and.supper had been ready for somg time. At length he came; but how differently he looked from what had been his “wont. some years past.— -His face was flushed; his eyes were ‘bright; his " bosom swelled out witha hearty breath; and his'step was heavy ‘and emphati¢, just as though it had'a ‘purpose.’ - And then' upon - his -shirt ‘there wasa grimy dirt, such as used to be there years agone; and when:his gaze rosted upon tho table his eountenance lomed v thongh be 1d » grtefl - patity,” e EE

What, Susan, he cried, as he sawhis. wife sitting there, are you well enough for this?, Andias be spoke le moved - to her side and kissed her. .~ .

I am gettifig better very fast, she replied. S And you must get well as soon ‘ag you can, . Susie; for I' ‘can’t” have you SieK Ay RioPe T b T - She must get well so ag’ to finish up those vest for the tailor, interrupted the old lady, with a spice of bitterness in her tone. Susan cast a reproachful, beseeching glance upon her mother, but the word had been spoken.. -~ .. No, no, said Harry with a smile, we’ll have no morc. of that. .I. took those vests last evening and cpxxiéd}iﬁhem all back to the tailor; angd - told him - that, my wife could work fcr him no more.

But—afiamy— o 0 o 0 fne st Stop, interrupted Hatry, as his-wife commencéd to speak. - There’s no more need of it, for I've struck my streak of luck at ‘tast. ' I knew I'was born to good luck, and that I should find it sooner or later—-T'vé found it. = -

Found it? repeated Susan, h‘e-xybli’ng with hope and apprehension bothi’ . Yes—l'vé found it in- my. wife, and in_my shop—Tl've been hammering it out all day. - People . have been stirag with wonder to see Harry Clare ringing away upon his anvil at sueh a rate; and, they may starc as much as they please. At all events, I can give thent -this assurance: If the sight 1§ worth secing, they shall “see it henceforth, at any time, when Harry has his health, and the sun is up! .And now lam hungry, Susie, 1l eat supper, and then 'l tell youall about it.. " After supper wis over arry sat down, and wound one arm about his wife’s neck, and then told her all he had. to tell; and when he had done he asked her if she could forgive him for the past. She rested ber head upon “his, bosom, and wept, and forgave, and blessed him. - And day ‘after day, the old -clang sounded-forth. from the Swmith’s shop. Great pieces of .iron assumed strange forms bencath the persisting strokes of [larry’s hammer, and as he. cast them one after another, upon the rough floor, he muttered to himself—There's. ariother piece of good ‘luck! Tl forge me out a'fortune yet, .. - .. Susan was not long in getting well after her hushand had.made_ her so hapy py; and when she was plump and rosy once more, and children could romp. about tke hogse without fear of tumb-ling-up the carefully arranged packages that used to come from' the tailor’s Harry took her upon his knee and kissed her, and wound hig arms about her, ..
