It is a ruthless, toothlbss wight Who dwells beside a wall, Ard spend. his time in singing songs As loud as he can bawl, And casting stones at pa:stigen Who may ueglect to cal. The knave deals out inflated corn And other fluffv things, Guu balls, and miscellaneous pie And douglinuts sbaped like iiug-; The pea-nut branch be also plic, As all day long he bings. O urchin rude, ot' maimers ciude, Of un.nangeche voice, Pray teli ie true, yoUiir ruflian, do, 11 thus you live from choice, Or if in your unhallowed way You really don't rejoice. Your wares are insalubrious, Your carols are the sanie, Your bold career is fraught - ith !ear, Your traffie one of shame A dark, mysteriuws. drcaiful trdde A Leed without a name. Boy, cease your ha;mf'ul. dreary nutes, And fliI your goods away; Go get you to New Zt:land, or Some cove in Baffin's Bay; Expenses out (but no return) Myself will gladly pay. The rogue looks up with knowing leer, And birts me not repine, Then aims a missile at my head. With phrase that's not divine, And croaks a still more dismal song The words, alas! are mine! titrub #tArp. SLIPPERY COURTSI1PS. -0 'Has May come 'Yes, Bertha. I have stowed her away safe and sound in the carriage.' And Mr. Webb, of Framington Hall, busied himsell in liftitig va rious parcels, bags, &c., froi the old family earriage. While so engaged he did not. perceive the anties of his irrepres sible son, who was capering about Lh(e road in the vain eidavor to catch a glimi,,se of his cousin May's face. A- last Mr. Webb assisted his niece to alight, in response to hcr impatient remark, 'that he was going to keep her there all day.' She was a slender, delicate girl of about eighteen summers, with a soft, pearly -complexion, and great laugbing" brown eyes: her hair fell in ringlets about her shoulders, and looked like a show cer of gold as the settinag sun lit up the darker shadows of her nut brown hair. She Evas the orphan niece of Mr. Webb, andh had beet brough t up enitirely at a fatshiona ble boarding-school. Un the cotm leltiont of hert educttationi she came to her uncle's home in tacc-ordtance with thle wish of her mother ; but May did not like the idea of re siditig in a 'dull, stupid cou ntry p)lace,' as she described it. . She was speedily made wieomne by 1ier aunt anad cousitis, who had collected at the gzarden gate, all imtpatientce. to see her. Mrts. Webb was a gentle, placid lady, with a kind, motherly man uer very comforting to the stran ger'. Her cousin Bertha was a very pretty~ gil. Her hiait w'as fasstecned into a careiess ktnot be. hind that becamie her wonderfully. Edwin eaEe next. and it did no1 take May many minutes to learn that he was the must incorrigible tease she bad ever met, Hie wai a good-looking fellow, with a tal: well knit figure. 'Well, May, I suppose your mine is filled with rapture at thbe though1 of spending your' future days ir this country place ?' rsaid Edwin looking, with a teasing smile, al his cousin,who was leaning agasins1 one of the columns, covered with ivy,'that supported the verandah A shadow fell over her tbri~i1 lace as abhe rep'ied warmly Edwmn laugbed slightly, bhn, weint on to say, mi toe sameC ltgh vein: 'I know you would like to be: farmer's wife. You woujld mak, a capital one, with those daint2 white hands.' May said, emphatically, with pout, -That I will never be! T< have a great eiumnsy fellow tread ing oni your train con,staniy I -onld not. bear it' 'What are you talking about? exclaimed another voice. And Bertha came slowly to wards them, swinging her broac hat in her hands, for it was an in tensely warm day in July. 'May was expressing her de light at the prospect of settling down as a furmer's wife.' Bertha looked at them both and said Oh, I know you have beer teaing her already. Really, it i, too bad. But it is no use to quar rel with him, for he is incorrigi b,ie.' May found that the time passed very quickly even in the country and did not regret her towu home. What with her drives Poating, walks, croquet parties &C , her time was so fully occu pied, that she did not find an op portunity for grieving. Shortly after her arrival at the Hall, she made the acquaintance of a wealthy young farmer, who owned a large farm and country seaL a few miles away. He was not handsome, but pos sessed a frank, ingenuous counto nance that was very attractive. His manner was a trifle awkward and constrained ; and May made him the butt for her constant ridiule. Ife bore all this with undimin ished good humor, and was bei constant companion. From th( first be had been her devoted ad mirer. It was a pleasant day in Sep tember, and early in the morninf young Oakland drove up in hi! pretty phaeton, and stopped be Fore Mrs. Webb's door. Hejumpe( down, and darted through th flower beds, regardless of tb damage they sustained, to th4 lai, where he had seen a littli figure in white muslin vanish. A last he found her demurely sittin, on a fallen log, and looking a: duinty and fresh as a rose. Mliss May, will you come witl me and take a ride ?' 'What!-at this hour ? Why surely not, Ar. Oakland I' 'Never mind the early hour The roads are so good, and thi air will revive you. Do come please!' pleaded he, eagerly. She looked mischievously a him saying merrily. 'Why arevousoanxious? G and find Bertha and take her wit you. She will be delighted I ar sure.' Oakland turned away at last wounded by her refusa!, and in moment she was beside him, rosy flush mantling her cheel and a gay smile on her red lips. 'I did not think you would d< sert me so soon,' she began. He looked at her searchinglj b ut she bore his scrutiny well upon which his countenance lostil gloomy expression, and a happ smile played over his features. Hie helped May to a seat besid Ihim, and they started off at brisk trot. They did not return till net noon, and when they arrivel Edwin came out to meet them the gate.. Oakland leaped ont of the ca riage, and stood by in readinei to lift her out. May glanced from one to ti other, and finally allowed ha cousin the privilege of helpir her. Oakland looked on angrily, a1 drove off without deigning to say word. Severs! days later, Oaklar Icalled at the Ifall, and wvas tak< into the parlor, where the fami were assem bled, They all wi comedi him gladly, for it was dull, wet dlay, a.nd they did n erge)et any calle:cs. Bertha sat the pino talking to Gerald Or land from time to time, and fina coaxed him irito giving them s ~ong. He had a clear.'me!odic voice, and sang~ with great tast but he was so 'very shy of his complishment. -that May did E know he possei;sed a fine voit and complimented him so higi that he begged- 'ber to desist wi iblushing~face. Edwin at. last seated hims beside Gerald Oaklanwd, and, af' -some desultory corvrbation, sa 'Do you wish to know what my cousin said about you the other w, dav ?' an May turned round at this, and ha said, quickly and imperatively: tu -Edwin, do not repeat what I said to you!' foI He looked at hf-r with a pro- be vokirigly innocent face, and went ap on, heedlessly: W 'Well, she told me privately no that she would never marry a far mer, and that you were too awk- pli ward and simple for her refined taste.' mi Gerald glanced at May's down- ha cast countenance, and asked, af quietly : no 'Is that true, Miss May ?' She shot a withering glance at ho Edwin, and replied 'Yes' in a low ch tone. Ec Gerald changed color, rose ab- tu ruptly, and bade them all good night. He kept his eyes stu-, th diously averted from May as.he tic came to her side; then be went tw hastily away. wi After he had gone, May went - up-stairs to her room, too sad and mortified to remain with the iam ily. Oakland did not come to the A4 Hall for some time after that; but he treated May with a mark- A: ed coolness that pained her ex cessively, although she, true to her womanly instincts, retained her gay, coquettish manner still. The months passed swiftly on, till, before any one realized it, winter had come with its keen, frosty breath. Then came the liveliest time for the young people, and May soon learned to be skillful in skating, St as she was in waltzing, and al most every day her slight, grace ful figure could be seen flitting as lightly as a bird over the ice. It was a clear, cold day in Jan uary, and May accompanied by b her cousins, set out for Glenwood Brook, which v as situated about two miles from their home. They st had not gone far before they o were overtaken by Oakland, who came along whistling, his skates t3lung over his shoulder. fo 'Ab, Oakland; just the fellow 81 ed I You help May along, and I will take care of Bertha,' ex- in t claimed Edwin, who good na turedly wished to bring the es stranged couple together. t Thus addressed Gerald could Snot do otherwise than offer his services to May, who accepted them nonchalantly enough, al athough her heart was beating C aloudly at the same time. The pond was a large one, and soon .May and Gerald found them .selves quite separated from the rest of the party. She started along fearlessly,d and was making for the opposite ir bank, when Gerald called, out anx .iously. 'Do not go too near that bank, efor there is a swift current under aneath, arid the ice is thin.' May did not pause in her r course, and sent a clear, silvery Speal of laughter after her. 'Ab, I am not afraid, and I am determined on reaching that rban k.' The words were barely uttered when the ice gave an ominous, ecreaking sound, and in a moment r she sank under it. She gave one quick scream, and then remained silent, holding on 1 dto the ice with fast benumbing fin a gers, 'Ob, I hope he will soon come !' she moaned. dGerald was soon beside her, and, n bracing- himself against atree, he vtook her little cold hauds in his, and, after considerable exertion a succeeded in drawing her out of tthe water. tHe held her half unconscious -form in his arms, and murmured, softly: us 'My darling, what should I have done had I lost you ?' c She opened her eyes, wet wi'.h ttears, and whispered: e, 'Would you have cared, Gerald ?' ly 'Cared ? Life would have been h worthless to me had you gone! he exclaimed, passionately. lf Hie was very pale with sup er pressed emotion, and his eyes id, shone with such a clear light that they fairly dazzled her. At this interesting point they Dre interrupted by the appear ce of Edwin Webb, who coult rdly conceal his laughter at the rn affairs had taken. 'Well, Cousin May, have yor rgiven me yet? Had it nol en for me, you would never preciated each other so much hat do you say, Gerald-do you t owe me many thanks?' Gerald looked at May, and re ed : 'Yes, Edwin; I do owe you iny thanks ; for we should never ve known the depth of our eetion for each -other if it had t been for our quarrel.' 'My advice to you is to get her me as soon as possible te ange her wet clothing,' said win, w-ho was of a practical rn of mind. His advice was so good that ey accepted it without a ques n, and all started for the Hall, o hearts filled to overflowing th happiness. $$izrt1120115. .TS PASSED AT THE LAST SESSION. q AcT to Amend Chapter CXX VIII of the Goneral Statutes) and to Provide for the Trial and Punishment of Persons Guilty of Homicide and Their Accessories When the Deceasec May be Wounded, Poisoned o Otherwise Injured in one Coun. ty and Die in Anotber.
