The Black Crook. A SAD BOT T?UE TALE. Mies Flor? Quabing waa by ill acknow? ledged fashion's queen, And many a SOODO of aplondor grand was by her aubjecta seen; Aa she went ao the noba all went-wbat o'er ehe did waa well 8ho Joinod the Saratoga ring, and soon became tho belle. Her form and faco wore faultless, hor namo without a stain, Her drees waa locomotive-like, it bad so long a train; But dire misfortune aoized tho girl, and . canned her mournful end: Dieeaao it took her off right .straight 'twas called Ibo urce ian V-jnd. She grew much worBO, yot she received not pity but abuae And though ehe never had looked fast, they said abe thon looked loose; Her parents were lu doepeat grlof- their hearts with pain wero rent v?t Bini the "bri with Grecian bend kept foUowing'her bent. At last when abo found that her wavr, her frionda and parents troubled, Arid that her form lost half its charms, al 2 though she thought it doubled, one eaid henceiortu sne*d stand erect v which, when ehe tried to do, She'd grown BO stiff that, in ono word, the I damsel broke in two. "WHAT THE ANDIRONS COST. "Peter," said my undo, knocking the ashes from his pipe, laying it on the corner of the shelf, and then fix? ing his eyes on the andirons, "Peter, those cost mo $1,0001" "Dear mel" exclaimed my aunt. "Ob, father," cried the girls. "Impossible," said I. '.True, every word true. 1,000, did I say? yes. 2,000, full $2,0001" "Well, -well," said my aunt, folding np her knitting for the night, "I should like to know what you aro talking about." My nncle bent forward, and plant? ing nts hands firmly on his parted knees, and with a deliberate air whioh showed no doubt of his being able to prove his assortions, he began: "Well, you eoe, a good many years ago, we bad a pair of common old andirons. Your cousin Lettie says one day, 'Father, don't you think these old andirons are getting too shabby?' Shabby or not, I thought, they would hold up the wood os nice? ly as if they were made of gold. Soon after that, Peter," continued my uncle, "your aunt took it up-" "There it goes," interrupted my aunt, "you can't get along without dragging me in." ''Your aunt took it np, Peter, and she said 'our neighbors could afford brass andirons, and they were no bet? ter off than we were. ' And she said Letty and her sister Jane were just getting old enough to see company, and the Btingy-looking andirons might hurt their market. I knew that women will have their own way, and there is no uso in objecting; so I got the andirons. The price of them was fonr dollars and a half-" "Ah, that's more like it!" cried my aunt. "I thought you said $2,000 !" "My dear, I wish yon wonld not interrupt me. Four and a half. Well, the first night after we got them, as we all sat by the warm fire talking over the matter, Letty called my attention to the hearth, tho stones of which were cracked and uneven. Tho hearth wrs entirely out of keeping with the new andirons, and I thought I might as well have it replaced first as last. The next day, a mason was sent for to examine it. He came in my absence, and when I returned home, your aunt and cousins all be? set me at once to have a marble slab, and they put their heads together." "La mel" exclaimed my aunt, "there was no putting heads together aboutit. The hearth was a real worn out thing, not fit for a pig-pen." "They put their heads together, Peter, as I was saying, and continued till I got a marble hearth, whioh cost me twenty dollars-yes, twenty dol? lars, at least. Then I thought I was done with expenses, bot I was wrong. Soon I began to hear sly hints thrown out about the brick work around the fire-place, not corresponding with the hearth. I stood for a month or two against your annt and the girls, but they at length got the better of me, and I was forced to have marble in? stead of brick. And then the old wood mantel-piece was so ont of character that it was necessary to have a marble one. The coat of this was nearly $100. And now that the spirit of improvement had got a start, there was no stopping. The new mantel put to shame tho old white-washed walls, and they must be painted, of course; and to prepare them for paint, sundry repairs were necessary. While this was going on, your aunt and tho girls} appeared to bo quite satisfied ; and when it was done, they had no idea that tho old parlor could bo mado to look so spruce. But this was only a short respite. The old rag carpet began to Taise a dust, and I found there would be no peace-" "Now, fut h ev !" exclaimed the girls. "Till I got a now carpet. That, again, shamed the old furniture, and it had to be turned out and replaced with new. Now, Peter, my lad, count np $20 for the hearth and $130 for the mantel-piece and repairs. What does that make?" "$150, unole." "Well, $60 for paper and paint?" "$200." "Then $60 for a carpet, and $100, at least, for furniture" "?360. " "Ahem I There's that clock, too, and the blinds-$50 more," "400, oxaotly." My aunt and cou? sins winked at each other. "Now," continued my uncle, "so mach for this one room. No Booner was the room finished, than tho com? plainte came from all quarters about the dining-room and entry. Long boforo this I had surrendered at their discretion, and handed in my sub? mission. The dining-room cost $400 more. "What does that count, Peter?" "800, uncle." "Then the chambers-at least 400, to make them chime with the down? stairs. " "1.200." "The outside of tho house had to bo repaired and painted, of course. Add 200 for that." "1,400." "Then, there must be a piazza in front; that cost 200." "1,600." Here aunt began to yawn, Letty to poke tho fire, and Jane to twirl over the leaves of a book. "A new ourringo came uext, Peter; that cost ?52UU. " "1,800." "Then ibero was a lawn to bo laid out and neatly fenced-a servant to j be hired-parties given occasionally -bonnets aud dresses at double the former cost-and a hundred other littlo expenses in keeping with tho now order of things. Yes, Peter, I was entirely within bounds when I said $2,000." The opposition was silent. My aunt immediately arose aud "guessed it was bed-time." I was left alone with my unole, who was not iucliued to drop tho subject. He wnp a perse? vering man, and never gave up what he undertoook till ho had done the work thoroughly. So he brought out his books and accounts, and set about making an exact estimate of tho expense. Ho kept mo up till after mid-night beforo ho got through. His conclusion was that thc pair of andirons cost him $3,450. Two French ladies were looking for the little daughter of ono of them in a group of baby carriages. "Do you seo him?" asked the friend of tho mother. "Him? I am looking for her nurse." "Her nurse?" "Yes. All children look alike. I kuow the nurse, and I can find the child best in that way." "As for myself, I think all bonnes look alike." "How do you find yours, then?" "Oh, I know the soldier who is her beau!" GR?MTE MTTiL STONEST From the Cloud's Greek Quarries, EDOEFIELD DISTRICT, S.
