' We were off on a hunt, and night coming on, we nut ti|> at Steve's knowing right well tuat a warm welcome waited us. Tom Studd. to use his own exv>re$-! sfojis, ''was as rough us a bar in Sprijig time, artcv a Imrd winter."? This applied to bis voice as well as liis looks; but to compensate in some way for his outside, he was furnished inside with a heart as big as an ox's.-He stood six feet in clear, with a muscular development astonishing to weak nerves. In his face,good nature would show itself; a twinkle in his clear i Ptrong, piercing grey eyes shot out from under heavy eye-brows, that tried hard to make liiin look fierce; a straight, well-formed nose, broad nostrils, and a corntrap of a mouth, that certainly was.meant for use as well us show, to judge bv its size. Put a hickory shirt, a pair of homespun breeches rolled into the tops of his boots, and a grey blanket overcoat on him, and you have him dressed for the hunt, never neglecting about a pound of Cavendish in ins overcoat pocket.? Two hounds crouched near the fire, pretty well worn nut with the day's run. Old Steve had a gridiron on the live coals, from which some veni on ttakes sent up a most enlivening flavor, while a large pot of coffee added its fragrant, port tune, Supper was going on. "lor right about these nights bein oldu-h. 'Taint no wonder you like to take the stiffeniu out of yer jiuts in J front of it,' said Steve. 'Not liiu on y earth like it, less it is j a drop of whisky !' And here Studd, I' pulling the stopper out of the jug that j stood on the table at his elbow, poured , out a drink into a tin cup, and, rising, walked over to thy bucket of water, standing on a bench near the door, and tilling the gourd, poured in enough "to squeneh the fire a leeile,"' and before you could wink, it had disappeared. A fe.v minutes tnorc and a plate of smoking vciiisioti steaks was on the! table with coffee and cold corn cakes, and all three of us hard at work, giving them living lessons. *>Tell ye what it is now; tomorrow well hunt along Duck Bayou. I see bar trackt down by the Two Pints:? an ole feller at that, an we'll jes triv aim wotnl thunder ! Wot kind of a shooting irin iiev ve got now?' Said . .1.1 .. ( 'HI OH."

Old 1 Steve rose from the table, picked it tip, \ and examined it carefully from muz-j zle toViitt. 'Too big a bore,' said Old Steve, j 'but a nasty piece for all that. How does .she carry ' 'Like'a yoke of oxen ! only a p'tiekerlv damned sight faster. Corel in to my cvpherin she carries an acorn ball, i forty to the" pound.

I conceit I sicli gnu8 as? them ain't giv away cve-i ry day, leastwise about these clearing.' And Old Steve, standing the rifle care- ' fully in the cornel*, gazed at it as if his heart were inside the barrel. 'Fact is,' spoke Tom, 'gratfytood : a in "t dead yet; tlmt nr. rifle, ary time , rdic speaks, sez so - -to my hearin.

'Ifout wot time did you sot tip for' medicine ninn?' asked Ole Steve: with .1 brnjid l.niah. Oumr Ixmls sis I kin remember, the, tail eeml of last August. You see, Doctor bandins bought out Jim ('rim's old place, I mob ov Tsoo Oarlhidgo; sent si lot ov niggers an a poor euss of i an overseer, Bowlegs by name; he! uidn't know his heau from a hive ofj hoes', to.

Poets were never greatly renowned for worldly wisdom?were never celebrated tor providing against a rainy day. They sing merrily, but forget that singing does not till the siomach. They are the children of Providence, in so far as they take 110 thought of to morrow. They ignore Mill and po i tical economy; Cocker and the rules of arithmetic. They cannot cast up a baker's bill or give accurate change out of a crown piece. They don't m general know when they are cheated, and they don't know how to cheat?.

The worst of it is that yon cannot quarrel with him. You may say severe things to him, may shake an ominous fist in his face, and he only smiles. Tor the life of you, you cannot break his head. That would be rank treason against genius. He pulls out his pocket and shows its empty conditi"n: lie lays bare his Itrart and shows1 its riches.
