MARV OF THE HEATH, j It is by no menus RU uncommon j observation, that, did any one noto ! down the retuarkitblc occurrences vt his own lite, those of his friends with whom li?? is well acquainted, or such as become known to him on good authority, in the course of n few years, how curions a collection it would form. The following is au example: It must now be nearly half a cen- j tn ry ago, when one tine summer's j day, about the hour of ripon, u little ! girl, who could not have been more j than ten or eleven years old, was seen j ou :i particular part of - Com- j mon ur heath, in Kent, (uot very far from the house of a wealthy baronet,) I suspending a pot on three sticks set. I upright iu tlie ground, after the mau- j ner of gipsies, over a fire which she \ had kindled beneath it. She was dressed in rags, aud seemed miser? ably poor and forlorn. The child. was alone. The singularity of the cir? cumstance excited the surprise of two ladies, who were taking their morning walk on that airy and agree? able common. They looked around, j expecting to see a party of Gypsies, to | whom they conjectured the child must belong; but, though wide and open, not a living creature, save the little girl boiling her pot, was to be seen far or near. Their curiosity was raised and much increased, when on a nearer approach, as she turned her head towards them, though burnt and browned with the sun and wind, they saw at a glance that the face which looked out from beneath a bon? net worn out of all color and shape, and arms which were but partially covered with an old tattered cloak, were neither of the Gypsy character or complexion. The features were small und round, and- the eyes and hair of true Saxon origin, blue and light brown. There was als# an ex? pression of artlessness in tho counte? nance, which, it must be confessed, is not very generally the distinguishing mark of the daughters of Egypt. There was something so siugular in the solitariness of the employment and the personal peculiarities of the child, it was impossible that two ladies of good hearts and benevolent intentions could other than feel interested for her. They proceeded, j therefore, at ouce to question her, beginning with the kindly and en? couraging expression of "My dear," as they asked her what she was doing there. "Boiling my pot for breakfast," was ber reply. "And what have you got in it?" "Two turnips that I took out of the field. " "Is that all you have got for your breakfast?" "All, except some bits of bread." "That's a very poor breakfast. To whom do yon belong?" "Nobody." "lo nobody! and you so young! How did you come here, and where are you going?" "I don't kuow." "You neither know bow you came here, nor where you are going? What a strange story! What is your name, and where did you come from? You must have come from some place?" "My name ?3 Mary, and I came a long way off, but I can't tell where." "How did you get here?" "I walked: I haye been many days walking." "I never heard so strange an ac? count as you give of yourself. "Where did yon get that pot?" "I brought it away with me." "Then you must have come from some persons with whom you have been living. Tell us now the truth. Have you not been with Gypsies?" A blush rose in her cheeks as she replied: "Yes, I have been with Gypsies." "Where are they, and where did yon leave them?" She paused a moment, looked down, and then said, "I got away from them, for I did not like their way of life." "And when waa it, and how have you lived since you left them?" "Very hard," saki the child. "I j bogged my way along the roads, and with the few half-pence I got, I bought a little bread to save me from starv? ing. I have nowhere to go. I have j no home." She barst into tears, and there was j something so forlorn, both in her ' voice and countenance, as she spoke ; these words, it was impossible to ! doubt their truth. There was noth? ing in it of the whine of a made-up tale, *o excite compassion, and she rather sought to wipe away her tears unobserved, as she turned aside her head, than to make aparado of them. "I an; sure," said Miss G-, the daughter of a neighboring baro? net, "there is something very un? common in this child's story. Poor j creature, she is really in very great ! distress. Let us take her borne, and j mamma will know better than we can ! what would be the best to do for j her." Her friend assented, and Miss I G-turned to the child and told j her that if she would como ulong I with her, she would give her some good advice The little girl followed gladly enough, but she would not ! leave the pot behind her, for that j and the miserable attire on ber back I was all the property she posessed in the world. Lady G- was a woman of known benevolence, but she was not one wdio exerted it without due cau? tion and judgment. She did not, by hasty or indiscriminate charity; en? courage vice and low cunning. The truly afflicted sought her doors, mid tin; idle vagubotnl passed on, cerUiiu tiiat inquiry would precede relief. Yet with all this,* Lady G- did not carry pautioti to that cold and extreme extent which rendered bei suspicious where there appeared marks of want ami sorrow, tiiat car? ried with thorn their own evidence of sincerity. This was the case. "That child," said Lady G-, after hearing her daughter's account of the meeting on the common, "if indeed in need of food and rest. J can see it in her looks. I can see that her distress is real in every lim of her face, which is a very pleasing one; and in the few words she ha: spoken, there is such a tojiehiug tone very different from hypocrisy. Sin shall have something to relieve bel hunger, and then we will questioi her." The little-creature's tears were seer to start in her eyes at the sight of tin food, for she was famishing witl want. The meal ended; once mort she was conducted to the presence o the ladies. Lady G-, with mud gentleness, commenced her interro? gatories, after having kindly, but it a way suited to the capacity of tin poor, untaught girl, endeavored t( impress on her mind the duty tis wei as the importance to herself of speak ing the truth. The following particulars were art lessly narrated: The child began by saying that sh was born in Bath. Her father wa in business in that city; she told bi trade. Her mother-iu-law treated he so harshly and unkindly, that 01 some gypsies coming into the neigh borhood, as she was allowed to rm neglected about, and glad to be on of sight of her severe step-mother she got acquainted with them, am was dually induced by their persun sions to run away and join them With these gypsies, she had lived tw or three years, going abont the couti try with them. She did not kuow i her father had made any inquiry cou corning her or not. At length, nc liking the way of life of the peopl among whom she had fallen, she d< termined to leave them on tho liri opportunity. She had stolen awn from them, takiDg nothing with bc but one of their old pots, with view to cook for herself a turnip, o anything she could get to sup poi her, so that she might not die ft want of food. She had wandere about the reads and way-sides, be{ ging, ever since she quit the gypse camp, and with tho very few ba pence she had picked upiu this mai uer, had bought a penny loaf at village she might pass in her ramble She did not at all know where si iiad been wandering, but at last si had reached the common where tl young ladies found her that morniu? Lady G-bad little or 1 doubt that the child's tale was tru and thinking that to cast out : 3'oung and so unfriended a creatu again on the wide world would be give her up to destruction, she r solved to afford her present shelte at least until she could ascertain 1 inquiry that all she bad stated w correct. Having obtained from tl child the name and address of b father, she determined at once write to Bath, begging an immedia reply. In the interval, the poor lit wanderer was attired in better cloth? and placed under the especial caro a steady female servant, with charge to keep a strict eye upon In In a few days an auswer came fr< Bath, confirming the girl's story n expressing an earnest wish for I return home to live with ber fath But little Mary evinced so much t ror at the thought of going back her mother, that Lady G-forb< to urge her to return home. She had been greatly interested the simplicity of her young char; and the servant to whose moreespec care she bad been committed, spc very favorably of her. I judy G proposed, therefore, to keep her the family, and try to make a s vant of her, beginning with BO j humble duties in tho household. ? The child's gratitude was one of the j liveliest kind; there was nothing bad in her; indeed, her natural disposition seemed docile and amiable. 13ut she j had received no instructions; all her j good qualities must, therefore, be in i bereut. She was very promising, ! and her benefactress, after a few j weeks more of probation, finding \ that she. might be trusted among the other children, sent little Mary to the village school. There tho child showed so much aptitude for learn? ing reading, writing, etc., that she soon became the head of the class, and made such progress, that, ou leaving the school, two or three years after, she was promoted in the house? hold, and became lady's maid to her benefactress. In ibis situation she had continued for several years, re? paying the kindness and generosity of Lady G-? by tb? most assiduous fulfillment of ber duties, and the warmest attachment to her person. Filially-and few theories of romance conclude 60 satisfactorily as this tale of real life-the trust? worthy and respectable house steward of the family took her to be bis wife. Lady G-, with an unwearied in? terest in her well-being, furnished the house for tho good people very handsomely, and made the bride the mistress of the village school, where she had been fostered and educated. Greatly was that excellent lady pleased to soe that when her favorite attained the height of her good for? tune-cherished by her superiors, beloved by the poor aud respected by every one-the full grown woman in lier prosperity preserved the edd pot ns a precious relic of the lowly and afflicted state from which, by a good Providence, she had been so mercifully rescued, when, as the for? lorn little Mary, she prepared to boil her turnips on a heath in Keut, on the most eventful morning of her life.
