It was i) Aunt Nabby's birth day, and she was bent upon having a stewed i'00e; stew e l in onions, and with cabbage and salt pork to match. 'Pollij.ihV said she to me, 'be'nt we pot a goose rbout the firm.' -No,' said 1, Mve eat the old gander at Christinas, and he was the last of the Patriarchs.' Aunt Nabby went down to Sue, who w as petting breakfast. 'Susanna,' said the, 'the boy (ells how we be'nt trot a goose in creation; now what shall we doV 'Go without,' replied Susanna, with that amiable tone which so milked her. and wttich my father said had worn ell' her teeth to the gums, But Aunt Nabbv was bent upon a goose, and when such a stitl'and straight per son gets bent upon anything, you mat consider the matter settled; and I saw that a goose of some kind mu-t be had at some rate or oilier. 'Here, you critter, cried Aunt Nabby to the little black specimen of the human family, which was digging potatoes in the gar den, 'here I want you to go along to the neighbors and borrar a goose. Cato laid down Ins noe. got over tne tence, and shovelled oil on his broad pedes tals to get a goose, lhehrst house that Cato came to was that of Sam Soap, the tailor, commonly called Soft Soap. Into the shop went the 1 ankci - t lieu tieero, ana making a lea to Jir. Soap, who sat like a Hindoo idol, busily employed in pitching an old blue coat, with stiil older brow n rags, andhumming most mournfully the air of il Ye banks and braes cf bonnj Doon,"' civing it a nasal tw an that came direct from Jedidiah Soap, who was a mem ber of the long Parliament. 'Snii says Cato, 'ye haint got no goose nor nothin, hamt ye, for aunt Nabbv ?1 Soap was a literal (not literary) mrn and so he caded lo his dau-ihter Pro prietv, who having but one eve, wa likewise called Justice that is, b foma that Were classical 'Piiety,' says he, 'gin Cato ray goose. l'liety, like a good girl, tooK the broad Hat iron oJ the shelf, and telling C;;to to be 'as caie ful as evei lasting not to gel it wet,' she wrapt it in a paper, and away went the web-footed mortal to deliver his charge to Susanna. 'My gracious!' said Susanna, 'if that are nigger ainl got me an iron goose to stew !' But nevertheless, as her business was to stew the goose and a?k no questions, at it she went, and pretty soon the tailor's treasure was simmeiing among onions, and carrots, and cabbages, and turnips, and spices, all as nice as need bo. After breakfast Ainl Nabbv had gone abroad to nk in the neighbors, and w hen she came homo, she went cf course directly to the kitchen to see h w thegooe came on. Is it tender, Susanra?said she. Su-anr.a smiled so sweetly that the old hou-e clock in the corner next the ourbvird, stepped and IkLI up i'.s hands 40!i, ma'am.' replied Susanna, 'it is so tender that I gut -s i! v, o;.t be no more tender after being bilid.' 'And fat?" 'Oh, Mess ye! ifso broad across the back.' My Aunt's mouth watered o that she was forced to look at Susanna to conect the agreeable impression. Well, no oa came, and the neighbors began to drop in. First came the parson, who being a man of va-t punctuality, took out hi waUh as mioii nj he cam.; in, and lor the purpose of seeing li nv it c!unv!,' as he said, with the old clock, walked into the kitchen, bade Mis Susanna 'good day,' hoped she 'continued well in body,' and snuiFed up the sweet savors of the preparing sacrifice, with expanded noliils. Next to the person came the squire; he opened the front door, and seeing no o;e but me, 'Poliijih,' he said, 'when "ill that nie goo-e be djnc? 'cau-e I'm ec-i lasfin busy setPiii that hay-mow ca.-e,aid I'd like to know.' 'Ready now.Miuire,' answered the parson, opening the kitchen door, 'and 1 gucfS it's an unconunoa line goose, tco, so walk in and let u? have a little chat.' The squire entered, and ho and the minister had a considerable spell o' conversation about the hay-mow case. The case was this: Abijah Peggs got leave lo carry his hav across the Widow Stokes's field to the road; well, this hay mow had dropped oil" the poles and Widow Stokes claimed it as a waif and stray. '.Now,' says the squire,! conceive the. chief pint 'in (he case is this here has Widow Stokes a right to the hay ? N-w this 'ill depend ye see, 'pon 'not her pint, to wit, vidoh f it docs the hay belong to "iLjah; Now the widow s i v s, says she, every man in this country's free, and therefore every man in this country's a king j'it so far as his farm noes; now the king, all allow, has a right to waif and strays and so, say widow Stokes, tlm! are hay'-, mine. H it, says 'lhj.ih, an, I by jink it's a cute argument, but,sas lie, though every man in this land of liberty ' a free man, yet that does'nt prove
that every woman is; and per contra, we know that women don't vote, and of course aiat free; so, says he, the w idow
Stokes aint a king; so, says he, the Hay lint hern. But it's a puzzlin case, ami it T 'Well, now,' answered the minis ter, it strikes me that hav amt a stray. 'Well,' said the squire, 4 that's a pint I never thinked of.' Jn-t then in came the deacon, and after him the sexton. iiid soon, till pretty much ail toe austocratic democracy of the village had sembled. And then in bustled Aunt Nabby awful line, I tell you; and then tisanna and Cato began to bung in .limn r. nsi.l while thev wcie doing that the company all took a still glass of grog by w ay of appetite, and then stroked dow n their faces and looked at the table; there was a pig roast and stalled, and a line of veal, and two old hen. ind 'an eVerlastin sight ot all kinds 01 sarce,' and pies and puddins,and dough nuts, and cider, and currant wine and above all. at the head of the table, the dish in which lay the hero of the day, 'that are goose,' smothered in onion", and utterly hid beneath the load of carrots and cabbages. The seat next the goose was assigned te the min ister, and all sat flow n. I he squire flourished his fork and pounced upon the pig; the deacon he tackled to at the veal, while the sexton went seriously to wotk to exhume a piece of baked park (rota amid an avalanche cf beans. The minister, w ith a spoon, gently stirred away a f;vv carrots and onions, in hopes of thus coming at the goose. 'It smells tern arkablv fine,' said he to Aunt Nabby. 'It's particular fat and tender,' she replied, 'I picked it myself from a whole heap.' And still the minister poked, till Ht last his spoon grated upon a hard substance. 'A skewer, I guess,' he said, and plunging his fork into the onion mass, lie struggled lo raise the iron handle with which he had joitK d i.-sue. 'Plcss me,' cried Aunt'Nahby, 'what's that are?" '1 sho'd judge,' said the squire, ' that that arcwas an old goose.' '(iiacious me!' exclaimed the deacon. Still the minister struggled and still the goose resisted Aunt Nabby grew nervous, and the more the minister stiuggled, the more the goose would'nt come. I saw mv Aunt's eye dilating, her hand moved ugly, and then poup.ee just when the minister thought he had conquered the enemy, my aunt's flaw diove the onions arid dragging forth the tailor's oo-e, held it at arm's length before the company; the squire had just laised the pig upon his fork, when seeing my Aunt's discovery, lie dropped it, and the disli was knocked all to smash; the sexton had draw n his beans to the edge of the table another pull as l,e saw the goose, and over it w. n!.
