l tell you what it is, gal,” said pld Sir.
Lawson to his daughter Stian, Pm deter
mined ueyer to have nu rdicated feller for
my son-in-law ; that’s a fixed fact.
Rut, father, said Susan, education chrrrV
make or unmake a man, any mare than
riche* do. It’s the soul, the principle, that
oopsiiiute* a man.
Very true, Susan, rejoined daddy Ijiw

rosed out of the window over hi* broad
and well Improved farm with u 'look cl self

Susan’s Utuer was no exception to men
of his eIsHS, who when they tmbileati idea
aie big-headed in their sdhereuce t-> it.
Susau understood this trait ol her father**,
and letting the argument drop relapsed in
fo silence.
While old Mr. Lswsmi entertained such
uolions of letters, and by the way was,
always taking pains U> inform everybody
concerning them, lie had deviatad some

"sad we’ll aen who'll ait to ibe moat pur

man the wauta to, she can Uy at home,

With tkia clincher Mother Lawton turn
ed her face to the wall, and refused to say
another word.
In the meantime Henry Coverdal* waa
graduly winning his way to eminence. The
resulta also began to flow In upon him Iu a
golden at ream. Yet be remained a bache
lor, though many wondered. Bull there
was no sigua of eld Mr. Lawson relaxing
tn tbedeast from bis view* on education.
However, thing* were destined to euape
themselves entirely diflerent to what a
marc observer might reasonably expect.
Tbi* grew out of Coverdale's love for
Buao which now assumed the cast of im
patience.
One day a young man in ho me* pin
garb presented himself at Ike house of old
Mr. Lawaon and inquired if he wanted to
hire a hand on the farm.
The old farmer eyed him for tome mo
ment* aaJ. finding him remarkably well
favored and knit together, aaid:
Where are you from ?
I live at Monroe when at borne, replied
the young mao.
Raised on a farm?
Yea, air.
About bow moth d* you want a month *
tul LAW-smr.
Whatever you think right.
You’ll pever get along in the world un
less you drive a better bargain than that,
replied slr. Lawson. Y->u shall work a
monlh for ttttren dollars, and after (hat, it
we suit ooe another, we’ll bargain lor a
year.
Agreed, said the young man, and waa
forthwith installed as a hired hatd.
As the reader gm-saes, the hand was
none other than Harry Cevcrdale, who
had commenced to put into operation a
plau lo gain the olj man's cousoul lo his
union with Susan.
Time wagged along. Old Lawson was
mightily pleased with 111* hired hand, and
often praised him to the werami tolks. In
deed, lie looked with a degree of compla
cency on his attentions to Susan, which be
gan to be marked, and CoverJula was ou
the point of popping the q-ioalloa, wkeu a
circumstance caused him to postpone it for
a short eenaon.
The farm oi Mr. Lawson was a part
of a tract the title ol which had formerly
la-oil In dispute, though it was in deed aud
in equity hit. Just at this time one ol
those laud sharks that infest the country
raked tw a worihUx claim, and entered
suit for poswion,
Thit yrocoediug was so obviously sh
anrd ana rascslly that Mr. Lawson merely
laughed at it, although at the advice of
hts hired hand ho appeared at court to re
fute the claim, supposing, however, that
Ids bare word would he all-suOlcient to
di*|K>*c of the rascal of a land-shark. His
hired baud ulso concluded to lose the day
ami go whh him, in order, ho said, “lo sue
what a Judge ami court were like.”
Old Mr*. Lawson and Husan irccompn
uled them liirTTiXpuip.-ir of nuking Home
ptm-hsMS, as they could get better bargain*
in town.
The c<*iverrvtlon ol the lamlly had pine
od Henry Cloverdalo In lull poseesslim ol
tho facts In the case, and lie had iiiimilested
uucli ail Interns! in the ailalr, and appeared
to lie so anxious ns to the result, that the
old mau was lot Uhtonislicd at soclug lihn
enter the bm aiol take a seal by Ins side. Tie
uolicod that abo Ins dame and Susan worn
among the spectators in tho court room.
TMV case wm called, and tho lawyer lor
tha plaintlfl arose ami made mu so plaual
bio a ataiemmt that It enraged the old
man dreadfully, so much ho that he ceuld
scarcely coutaiu hluiacll, until the lawyer
cone udtxl.
The moment ho ant down the old man
sprang to his lent.
Hen here, he exclaimed. Mere are deeds,
and every man in Hilt courtroom knows
me well enough to know that 1 never got
them by lascsdty, or claimed morn ihsn
vf HI J’Mftly im*.
All this limy be true, replied tho judge,
but the court demands legal proof, relative
to Hie points at issue. I picsiimeyou have
uu attorney, Mr. Lawson.
Never a single one. I never thought it
worth while, said tho old man, perfectly
agbist at the turn matters were taking.
At this Stage Lawson's lib ed hand rose
to Ills feet.
May It pleaae tho court, I will under
take the case for Mr. Lawson, said lie.,
A pretty case you' II make ol it, nald the
old man. You can plow com a wonder
ful sight dieHen —
1 assure lit- Lawson that Mr. Covei
dale in pcrlectly competent the task, said
the Judge, who was well Acquainted with
Hie young lawyer, and who, though igno
rant ol the proveiu relations, lauciwd he
smelt a Joke in the action* of the parties.
Melibc yer honor’s right, said Mr. Law
son ; but plague tako rrto If you don't find
him a likely night better farm-hand than
lawyer. 7
A general litter ran around the bar.
Tire suit proceeded. The young attor
ney having previously mastered the whole
ground, entered into the merit with *ucb
force iuid c.learnea* as astonished even 'lt o
court. But how shall we print lira sur
prise of old Mr Lawarrn ! it took him by
storm. At every word of the young law
yer lie seemed to distend-with astonish
merit, until hie amazement waa aomething
to ridiculously appalling aa to convulse the
entire audience with laughter. Peal after
jreal rewondod, and even the fat aide* of
the Judge, forgetting tlielr'gravity, eeemed
ready to shake to piece* with merriment.
Wtnsreyou? at last grasped tire old
man.
Bit down, Mr. Lawson, laid Coverdai*.
I’m attending to the caae. Then stopping,
lie whispered In blx ear, I’m trying to earu
Buean.
Bhu'a yours, shouted the old man. re
gardless of the bystanders, or the court,
which having now *m inkling of the
matter, gave loose rein to their jubilant
feelings.
How Susan felt, however, can be lietter
imagined than described. She blushed'
like one of her mother’a peonies, ami hasti
ly hid her £*ce in her velL
When the merriment had subsided and
old Lawson had secured hi* cqullibihim,
the happy attorney proceeded, and finally
made so clear a case for hi* voluntary cli
ent, aa caused the judge to dismiss the
suit.
Tb* old man left the court in triumph,
and with his hired hand preceded at once
to the ordinary's office where a license was
procured. The judge gave the court a re
cess, and united the happy pair in tb*
bonds of wedlock.
Since that event Mr. Lawton has chang
ed hi* view* on educational matter*.

And the whole country is ablaao with ex

It appears to ns that this agitation would
