They were at least j t subjected to the patronage of friends, ' o, in return for advice, perhaps would ! ume the prerogative of directing All I lir affair*. L>n entering the barber's shop I found self unmistakably in the presence of a . lileman, one, who to nature's nobility, 1 led the.polish of intelligence and re- i onent of manner*. Lie had a fine per- i i and a handsome countenance, and j s apparently not more than twenty- j lit years of age. A* I submitted tnv . lutenance tc operations and he conrer , easily and .pleasantly, my curiosity 1 rcased to 'earn what had induced one j gifted to place himself in so unusual a j lition. But as there was uo allusion 1 bis previous circumstances in his con- I sation, 1 did not feel at liberty to he nisiiivo. { became a regular custom- i and decided to prolong my slay in j indefinitely, aa fancy or pleasmight dictate. My admiration of I on increased on acquaintance. He i a keen observer of human nature, I had picked up many curious facts j u hie chance customers, whom he had eculiar faculty of drawing out. lie I a genial wit that amused, and a pear harmonizing influence that made i feed on excellent terms with yourself I with bitil while under his hands, and you on a better footing with the world general, though you could scarce tell y. One day in* walking out I passed residence. 1 had learned its location n my landlord, ft was a small, neat 'l? cottage, with a few shr.de trees in it and some flowering shrubs cloihim smooth lawn. K large, welhkept den was in tlio roar, and, adjoining, a ii, a poultry house and yard. I felt a iosif tc enter and note if iu internal oigements were in keeping with the trior, which 1 did not douht. Hut I I r.o pretext for doing so, and I had I er been invited i?y the proprietor. I i thinking of this when next I went to shop to avail my sell of his service#, must have been en rap/xtrt with me, ' link, for before 1 left Le invited me to at bis bouse that evening. Tney saw few visitors,' he said, 'kept no intercourse of mere cercinonv, nei r lie nor In# wife being willing to subto the irjcsoipeness and lass of time xvolvcd.-lor which no equivalent was dved.

I told him 1 had intended to re in some weeks in their quiet village to uit mv energies, and nothing would >r?l me greater pleasure, or contribute, km sure, icotc lu my benefit than to j irate his acquaintance, and I did not ! lb*. I should bud his wife equally agreea, trusting to his good taste and judg- ! at in the choice. Come and see,' he answered, smiling. ' went about five o'clock of the same ning, which was the time he designa- i lie met me at the door with a cor I smile and shake of the hand, and n took me into the little parlor where , wife was seated. On being introduced rase and give rne her hand with the liality of an old acquaintance. Her band, she said, had spokeq of me, and It assured by her manner that he had | iretsed her favorably toward me. She i rather below the medium height, bad k brown hair and eyes, and a reinar. , 1'y clear complexion. Ijer features e not regular, but the expression of countenance was peculiarly pleasing, I diffused over them a charm far highhan mere pinsical beauty. She look like one whose life was well regulated, r form was a model of symmetry, and movements were perfect grace. They tied set to music, and I have no doubt y were, the music of her soul, kihc , s dressed in a neatly biting white ipper, with her hair in plain bands, re ling iLe clastic form of her head.? j appointments of the little room were ap and simple, but they bad the etl'ect ulegance, almost iu^uriouanew.

I, hut not to the extent I did when I I become somewhat familiarised itinre. ne of the most delicious hours I ever nt, were passed in this room, reclining in a lounge, among the cushions with ich its mistress had furnished it, book iand, realising the paradise of'the poet if. The moral atmosphere of those 3 inhabit a house pervades it, there is doubt about that, in some houses I e felt an unpleasant sense of constric i for which I could not account, even sn I wasaione in my owrt room. There i nothing* this kind here. The very of K seemed to hoyer about the ;e. After conversing awhile upon deoyr topics, I walked in the garden h fcjton. It was iy admirable order, i everything it contained was in a thri> 5 condition. Ho was his own gardner, I told me, working about one hour a , which he found very pleasant and llbfnl. His wife had soma borders of rers, and they had a great variety of fruit treee. From these, his garden und, cow and poultry yard, their table i principally supplied, Heea lie kept , v.., v.."!, uuu ntue-rauor, wmio tbeir hotiev affordeJ an excellent luxury. After a brief \isic I returned to tny lodgings, charmed with my new acquaintance, and with carte blanche to invade tbeir premises whenever inclination prompted. This I found to be pretty of ten, though I did not always yield to ij. fancying it possible, that like other good things.inv society might be more highly prized, if it was a little charily bestowed. Mrs Kilon, I found, bad been bred a fine lady, in the popular sense of that term. She had been brought up by a wealthy aunt, and had had excectatiors, which were cutoff by her marrying young Elton, against lier aunt's will, after bis father's failure. Elton's father diod of beait disease, soon after the loss of bis property. His son was thus thrown upon his own resources, without a penny in his pocket, and with no habits of business. 'What are you to do'!1 asked Mrs. Menvin, their aunt, of him one day after this event, as lie related to me. 'You have no trade, no profession, and not a penny of capital to go into business with; and if you had, you have no husine s knowledge to i< sure success. And here is Maria,' she said, 'with no more effi iency than a bahy, and just as incapable of taking care of herself. What are vou to do ?' 'As for Maria,' I answered, 'I trust she has a substratum of good sense, nnd a love of duty which will prove available for all practical purposes in whatever eir cumstances she may l?o placed ; and I,' I added, gravely, 'am already master of an excellent profession !' 'A profession,' exclaimed my aunt, sneeringly ; 'what is it ? Paring your nai.sf I'll wager you never did anything more luboiious.' 'A little,' I answered, 'though you may never have become cognizant of the fact. 1 am an excellent barber.' 'Seeing she looked puzzled, and a little in.b.>i.un> ?l -> - ' ' or. UMMigll SIIO lOHreO 1 WJiS quizzing her, I explained : *tyn 4 .journey once, 1 was detained for some weeks, witii a ai<k friend, in a region thai did not afford the luxury of a liHrtirr, I performed for niv friend the office of one, for that length of lime?uud was voted by him very skilful. And yon intend to erect a harbor's pole,' exclaimed my aunt, indignantly ; 'upon my word'that will bo adding glory to family eHoutehooo-* *1 presume,' said Maria, to mollify her aunt, 'that Klward is only joking.' *1 am not so sure of that,' said I. 'but the future will show.' I had spoken lightly, and because the remembrance of my experience was roused in my mind by my aunt's saying 1 bad no profession ; but while walking alone on the evening after tiiis conversation took place, the thought came to me?w hy not erect a barber's pol. f what business can you seek that will he less laborious, more independent ? you have not a penny in the world and no one I as any confidence jD your business capacity. And, after all, would it not ha preferable to standing all day behind a counter, trying to suit the whims of difficult customers?under a master too. The common sen-e appeared to give a verdict of yes, drowning the voice of 'society,' w hich would have urge.I motives to the contrary, and my resolutions was taken. I imparted it to uiy wile ilia', night. When convinced I was in earnest she fell in at once with my plans, Hud we lay awake far into the night discussing them. I was to seek out some country village, where 'iving would be less ex pen aive, and the vocation I had chosen more respectable, for I could not at once divest myself or the false pride in which I had been nurtured, and meet with firmness 'the world's dread lau^h.'
