We had no chance to speak to hlui for along time, but after tbe woman had at last talleu asleep, worn out with her sorrow and ber journey, he left her, and then wo followed him. lie went about collecting all his little toys from their various hiding places, and carefully placing them together on a blanket. •There was a matter of three dollars, 1 believe, taken In a collection for mo,' be said ut ieugtb, looking up from his work and addressing Clemanttia. tQh, Barnes, yes, it waa for you!' replied the girl, in tears.

Then he took up hia blaukottal of toys and carried them to tbe berry house, where his wife was aleepiug then he began to pack tbem carefully, together with hia Mates, a few lake sLells aud colored pebbles, all his wages, including the three dollars we bad given him. •Ob!' said Cleuantha. clasping her hands, 'what shall we call him now?'

The five went away together on tbe steamer the next morning, the Soowler having at last given It up, and asking now on|y that the two should go down with him aa witnesses.

•Yes, be is,' she answered, i»itt**ly 'dead and buried.' Then sbe begfin to sob again. We could scarcly bear to bear her. 'Let me go to ber,' said Barnes, shaking off bis captors with heavy force. 'Who Mhe, anyway?' ..said the Scowler. 'My wife,' replied Barueo.

A Queer Courtship.

You know bow it is In a letter (began tbe little shopkeeper, rubbing her thin bands together helplessly.) I was writing to brother Joshua awaydown East, hundreds Of milea/rem here, and happened to tell him among other things, that the widow lady that helped teach school here, and boarded with me, waa going away. I didn't say a word one way or tbe other about Mr. Steele, for nat did it matter to them whether be waa a tyrant or notf I only wanted to tell tbem I'd been tit a good deal of expense in fitting up the room, and I didn't mind her board money so much as I did to have tbe chamber idle again, and nobody about tbe house but myself, though she was poor company at the best, being sickly in constitution and low in spirits the most of tho time, and after a wbile nearly driven crazy by tbe continual badgering and bickering of Mr. Steele., Sbe used to oome home at night that worn out, what with tbe wickedness of tbe children and tbe eternal nagging of the schoolmaster, that I've seen ber put her head down on tbe table and cry fit to break her heart. Sbe said she oouldn'c please him, do what she might, and it was ruining her nerves to see aim beat tbe boys in the way that be did. She was sdre" he'd break some of their bones. I tried to cheer ber as bestlqould, telling her that boya' bonea were tough, and the little rascals deserved to be paid up for sofae of their deviltry. After an hour or two she'd oome around again and be comfortable, but, la me! what was the use? Tbe next day, perhaps, she'd be worse than ever, and the creature's health began to foil so I was glad when sbe gave up and want away. Sbe was very down hearted, Sam Riley, the stage driver, said, all the way down to the train, and he also gave it as bis candid opinion that Mr. Steele was no botter than a black hearted tyrant.

Sain is such a good natnred fellow that it wore upon bis mind, and he stopped a bit with me on bis way to tbe evening train to talk it over. I wanted bim to get some things for me at Pikeville, and while I was writing the memorandum, ijatn told me bow fie pitied whatever poor body was to take that poor creature's plaoe.

You can just fancy how I felt when Sara drove up to the door that night, and I went out to get tbe package, to see brother Joshua's daughter Jemima on the seat with Sam, chatting and laughing as merry as a cricket. I waa powerful glad to tee tbe child, but dreadfully mortified to find ber tucked in there with tbe driver. I told Sam pretty sbarp-

you! UoP •Yes. go! go!' cried other voices, for tbe balance was now all on tho side of Barnes.

But there was no place for tbe men to go to, save tbe beach, and alter a few moments, peace was restored. It was nw sunset tbo down oat would not CUIIIG until dawn. Hen Jaoobsohn hoped with a gracious smile, tbat Mr. Murdoch would no* remain and finish tbe sealing of the cans they would endeavor to make Mrs. Murdoch comfortable lor a l«w days. •No,' suld the woman—'no, Bill. I want you to go back with me I want to buy mourning to wear for my boy.' Then sbe began to wail and sob again. But this time her husband's arms wore around her sbe bid ber faoe upon bis breast and, in spite of bis pity for her, be looked intensely happy, his eyes shone, every now ana then ills lips quivered be saw nothing, beard nothing, that went ou around him, he was like a man in tbe excited quiet of repressed intoxication.

was plenty of room Inside, and 1 didn't know what tbo boarders over the way would think of it. 'She was bound to ride outside,' said Sam 'and a willful woman must have her way.' •Why, it's all the fashion up our way,' said Mime. 'The summer boarders swarm all over the tops of tbe coaches like so many lovely bees but if it hurts anj body's feelings, then I'm sorry. A eehool inarm must mind ber p's and q's.' •A school inarm?' I said, wonderitig what the child meant. Then she told me she'd come out to take tbat poor little woman's place that she'd written to Mr. Steele when my letter was read at home, for she couldn't get along at the school there. 'It would take a saint to pnt up with their airs aud their interference, and you know I like my own way,' said my nieco Jemima. *Yes,' I said, for I bad known Mime's temper from a obild. Anybody could see from her hair how fiery she was but the dear child waa just as the good Lord bad seen fit to make her, and I, for one, never bold red haired people accountable for freaks of temper.

Only you cau aee how ridiculous it seemed to me for ber to teach under Mr. Steele. 'Out of the frying p«n into the fire, Mime,' I said. 'The schoolmaster has it all bis own way here, aud he's little better than a brute. I've seen under my own eyes a woman's heart almost broken with him. Then I went on to tell how he'd tormented that poor widow woman into giving tip the place, aud how I'd seen her worry ana fret till the skin fairly dropped off her 'Pooh! pooh!' said my niece 'the sliin won't drop oil' my bones, aunty.'

And I couldn't help thinking what a pity it would be if it did, for whiter and finer and wbolesomer skin I never did Bee in my life. It was the kind tbat so often comes with red hair, aud a lovelier color never was in a blossom ban loomed in Mime's cheek when sbe cried out. 'I've got to fight it out somewhere, aunty let bim mind his own business, and I'll mind mihfe.'

My heart fairly warmed to the girl as she sat opposite me at tho table, crunching slice after slice of toast between ber white teeth, and devouring the dainties one by one. The little widow bad been so liotoky, and had such a poor appetite myself, that things came aud went upon tbe table and were warmed up aud fussed over till* body got tired of seeing thom. Then she was my own flesh and blood, snd bad the Schoomaksr nose—a Utile high with Mime, aud freckled over tbe bri (fiefs bit—but she a bonny blitheu fresh looking creature, ao different froni the wretched little woman that had just gone away.

I couldn't bear the thoughts of hlr spirits and health being broken by that dreadful Mr. Steele. 'I'll tell you, Mime,' I said, as she dried the dishes tor me, 'what we'll do. You ahall stay at home with me and help about the shop there's bonnets now and then to trim, snd lots of little kniokknaolcs in wonted work to be made.' 'Now, aunty,' Said Mime, 'a buffalo would be lees clumsy at trimming a bonnet than I would, and as for worsted work—' •1 suppose so,' I aaid, for could see she was determined to teach.

The next morning she went to school, and for a month or so everything went ra word or plaint from her. Sbe made fun enough

right, and 1 didnt hear plaint of the schoolmaster, snd said he didnt know how to manage the boys, and? made himself more trooble than was necessary that a coaxing word of hen went farther than a dosen slashes with that rod of his but everyone had their own way, snd it was none of her business. She was getting along splendidly,

the smaller children were quite delighted with way ahe bad of picturing out things on the biaokboard. Mime waa quite ready with her pencil, and had made as laugh, Sam Riley and me many time by scrawling of fenny conceits on paper. Sam Riley began to drop tn st iSght, and I noUcedoTwaa quite taken with Mime. Sam was well to do, and, outside of his Hue of stage®, owned a fine house down on the main toad. Sam didn't mind being hit off himself once In a while—him snd his

horses and pasiwnger* and a 1 be need I to sit back in bis chair and laugh till tbe tears rolled down, hia oheeka and look over at me. and wink snd blink, whispering under h|s breath what a wonder ful woman shejras. •She's as fr*sh and handsome as a rose,' he would say when Mime waa out of the room 'and what health she's got, snd what aplritsl'

I could see bow things were going. Dear! desr! I used to sit and picture Tt all out to myself, aud think how nice it would be to have Mine settled near me for life. So when ahe came home one afternoon from school with a brigbt spot burning on either cheek, an angry flame in her eyes, and said to me tbat war bad begun between her rfnd Mr. ^Steele, didn't so much mind, for I thought tbe sooner she got dlscotl raged the oetter. Sam was well on to thirty, and though Mime's skin made her look youni than she was, there wasn't so much difference as you'd think betwoen their

e'e forbidden my illustrations on tbe blackboard, aunty,' said Mime and though I didn't know one bit of board from another, 1 could see by the way she felt about it that it was a great spite to Mime. 'He calls tbem pernicious and exciting to the imagination, and injurious to more practical requirements,' said Jemima. And I couldn't quite'get the hang of his objections, lor every word of the school master's was us long as the moral law, but I cenld tell it was some imposition of bis. 'He's a narrow minded idiot, and I shall tell him so if be persists in his foolish notions,' said Mime. 'If be persists,' I said, 'you'd better give it up. 'He's so set in his way, there is no^nse crossing him.' 'I won't let bim cross me,' said Mime, and she didn't. Sbe went ou with her pictures on tbe black boaid for a week or more, till one night there was a rap at the sitting room door, and it gave me quite a turn to seethe long bony figure of the schoolmaster standing On the threshold.

Mime started up, a hot color leaping into her face, and stood there confronting him like a young Jezebel.

Tbe man looked pale enough himself, sinking into tbe chair I set for bim as If he was quite worn and spend like, and be seemed beat out iu some way for though he fixed bis eyes savagely on Mime, there was something in 'em that looked tired and hunted. •I have come here to remonstrate with your niece, madam,' he said to me, 'though I've found it of little use and profit heretofore but however judicious it may seem to retain her services, her spirit of Insubordination is too dangerous an example to tbe natuially rebellious and sometimes very headstrong temperament of youth. Sue must confine herself strictly to the rules that govern tbe method of iustruction. Tbe trustees—'

Don't put it on the trustees," broke in Mime and I was glad she took it upon herself to answer him, for I couldn't make out bead or tail of what he was saying, what with bis long words, and the nutter I was in. 'Tbe trustees are mere lay figures for you to dress your petty schemes of conceit and tyranny upon.'

He waived bis hand impatiently, and went on: "It is tbe will of the trustees tbat you shall put aside tbe peurile and reprehensible course you have taken in exciting the imagination and creating frivolous and mischievous emotious.The pursuits of my own class have been interrupted, their attention distracted _»

Why don't your class mind their own business?' said Mime. 'Wby do you look at me, or listen to me, or bother with me at all? It is not your class tbat is disturbed, Mr. Steele, it is you.' Tbe schoolmaster's faoe suddenly r63d6tted, then grew paler than before be wiped tbe perspiration from forehead, and his bony fli trembled on bis knees. tbat he was mad, for Mime went on In the most outrageous way. Her spunk was up, and she wasn't bit afraid of bim.

You can't bear to see knowledge made easy and pleasant,' she said. You'd like to knock every new idea into tbe brain with a sledge hammer you hate to look over st tbechildren and me aud see us making light of onr task —it's gall and wormwood to you, Mr. Stoolc

Hush, Mime,' I said, for I could see tbat be was getting more and more excited, and I didn't Know but what he'd fling tbo lamp at her head, or something. But he mastered himself, and up bo got and went away without auother word.

I thought we'd have a nice evening, for Mime was in high feather and sitting down to the table she caught up a pencil and made the schoolmaster take every ridiculous shape that she oould. Her eyee sbono aud ber cheeks glowed, and I didn't wonder Sam couldn't take bis eyes off ber face. •Say the word. Mime,' said Sam, 'and I'll punch tbe idiot's bead.'

Who are you calling an idiot?' said Mime, turning straigbt upon Sam. 'If rou had tbe hundredth part of his lnteligeuoe, you might be glad.' •I thought you called him so yourself,' said Sam, meekly, for he was head-over-ears in love with tbe young termagant. •If I did,' said Mime,

And soon after tbat Mime said sbe was tired and sleepy, snd sent Sam off, «s cool ss you please. Tben she got upon her feet and walked about tbe floor, and 1 could see she wss terribly put out and excited by tbe schoolmaster's visit. •You'll wear yourself out for nothing,' I said, for it vexed me to see her all In a fret that way from pure apiie. 'Hell break your health and spirits like be did with tbat poor little body tbat was here before you.' •I don't believe all those stories about that woman, aunty. I've found out ahe bad heavier troubles than those {nit upon ber by the schoolmaster. You mustn't believe all that you hear.'

That was tbe way with' Mime—she was that contrary when she was vexed that she'd swear black was white, and take the part of the evil one himself.

Sbe began from that time out to fight bard for ber own way, and it got to be pretty well known she was winning over the trustees. The children hsa never liked anybody ss they did Mime, and little Bill Pritchard, that used to play truant half the time, and would rather take a beating any «iay than be pent up in school, went there as regular as dock-work now, and began to mark out horses snd dogs with a stump of a pencil himself and Mr. Pritchard, he was one of tho trustees, and thought the: world and all of my nieoe Jemima.

But somehow or other, just as I said, the continual woniment of tt fretted Mime, and she got thin and lost her color and the night she came home and said she had gotthe best of the schoolmaster, and the notice bad been served on him that day that he wss to let ber have herown way of Ustehing,thatnight

wayrfor Mime was more fidgety snd contmry than ever aud don? believe

varylblog would have turned out as it if Mime bad been In her sober sen ses. Tbe girl wss about half wild, and I don't believe she knew what ahe was st out for it stands to reason sbo most bave hated tye schoolmsrter, and yet when I began to glory over his defeat, and cay bow glad Sam. Riley would be, sbo shut roe up in a minute. •Sam Rilny and Mr Steele,' sbe aaid, 'are two very different men/ *1 should hope so,' I said. •&un is made of a different stuff,' she went on tossy. The little pricks snd torments that sting the soul of Mr. Steele to madness would he utterly uufelt by Sam. Sam Is good fellow—'

Thank you for Sam,'I said, for sbe was enough to provoke a saint. But he has uot the capacitv for suffering that Mr. Steele has and ob,aunty, be does suffer!'

Serve him right, the monster,' I said and bad scarce got the words out of my mouth wben there was a rap at the door. I went over, thinking it was Sam Riley, when there was the thin, gaunt face of tbe schoolmaster again.

He came in and bowed as grave as an owl, snd sat down on a chair by the door his cane rolled down beside bim on tbe floor, and for a full minute or so bo couldn't find a word out of tbat long dictionary in his head.

I was glad to see that Mime's spunk came back at the sight of him. Her eyes were as bright as they could be, aud hor cheeks like tbe heart of a hollyhock.

My errand here, Mias Jemima,' he began, Ms altogether a friendly one. You have so much spirit aud determination that I think your present subordinate position is unfit for you. I know of one that will be shortly vacant, which you can fill with great credit to yourself and all concerned.' 'I'm much obliged to you,' said Mime ber lips begiuniug to curl, and the color in her cheeks deepening to a flame,'but I'm quite satisfied where I am. I can well understand that you'd be glad to be rid of me, but I must beg to decline. I'm not going away from here.' 'But am going away from hero,' said the schoolmaster, getting upon his feot. 'It is

place that will be vacant,

and tbat 1 think you may have if you choose. You—you!' said Mime and I don't wonder tbe child was astounded at tbe news. I waa really quite flustered myself. 'Yes,' said tbe scboolmsster 'you cau have your own way now.' And be went out the door, bowing awkwardly as he went, a queer, miserable smile struggling into bis face.

Dear! dear! the contrariness of womsn! No sooner was the door well shut on him than Mime put ber bead down on tbe table and began to cry. Her hair got loose and fell all about ber, and, to uixke tbe matter worse, I heard a footstep out side, and this time I thought It must be Sam Riley. 'For goodness' sske, Mime,' I said, 'do not let Sam Riley see you in this way!'

But tbft door opened, and there stood tbe schoolmaster again. He said be had come back for bis cane, but be never even stooped to pick it up, but stood staring at Mime as if sbe was a ghost instead of the fresh, pretty, wholesome creature thai she was.Sbe raised her head, and though her face was half bidden by her hair, her eyeslashes were wet, and tbe tears not dried yet on ber cheek?.

The schoolmaster, not minding me any more than if I was a block of wood or something, walked straight over to Mime. 'You know very well,' he said, 'tbat I am only r'oing away from here because I love you. Because it was not the class that was distracted by your pretty ways and devices it was I. You know all this very well, and can tell me whether I bod better go or not. Now tell me, shall I stay?'

You might bave knocked ma down 'with a feather when I saw Mime put ber hand out timidly to the schoolmaster, and he turn pale and catch itin both bis own. IIs •Of course not.' I broke in, for I was near distracted by tbe way things were going. 'If you'ro an honorable man, and got any sense left, and sn eye in your head, you'd see that my niece is as good as engaged to Sam Riley.' 'Sam Rileyl'ssid Mime, as soornful as if1 poor Sam was a toad or something, ana holding on to tbo schoolmasters horny hands as if sbe was drowning.

But, dear! dear! when I beard the cfack or Sam Riley's whip outside, and knew the evening stage waa in, and poor Sam not knowing what was in store for bim, I bad to go un cry to myself.

and I'll never do it again. No, Sam,I'll beat bim with his own weapons. I'll go to the trustees myself. If he can -wheedle and coax tbem, so can I and if be can bully them, perhaps I can do that too.' •You can do anything,' said poor Sam.

H. R. STEVENS, Esq.: Dear Sir—1 have been badly afflicted with Kidney Complaint for ten years: have suffered

in very small quantities, frequently accompanied with blood and excruciating jpain. 1 have faithfully tried most of the popular remedies recommended for my complaint 1 have been under the treatment of some of the most skilful physlciaas in Boston, all of whom pronounced my case incurable. This was my condition when I was advised by a friend to try the VBOETINB, and I could see tho good effects from the first dose I took, and from that moment 1 kept on improving until I was entirely cured, takiug in all, 1 should think, about six bottles.

It is indeed a valuable medicine, and if I should be atHicted again in the same way I would give a dollar fob a dose, if I could not get it without.

f'l! Life a Burden. BOSTON, NOV. 2,1873. H. R. STEVENS, Esq.:

Dear Sir—From a poor, emaciated sufferer, the VEOETIXE has restored roe to perfect health. I have for years been a terrible sufferer from Canker and Dyspepsia, at times rendering life almost a burden to mo. I am now fifteen (ift) pounds heavier than when I commenced the use of VEOSTINE.

I will make mention tbat I was also a great sufferer from Kklney Complaint, causing excruciating pain through the small of tbe back nearly all of the time. This, too, VKOSTINK has cored, and I am nowa perfect picture, of health, and I will add, happiness -ell caused from tbe use of a few bottles of VEOKTINK.

Respectfully, H. O. HUGHES, 1 Union place, Boston, If a«. VcorriNn Is Herbs. It is very likes it.
