“Mary, look at thu bread, won’t you ?
[t’s most done, 1 guess,” said Mrs.
Hey worth to her daughter.
A foot-step soubded upon the well-
beaten yard, and both mother and
daughter Bfarted nervously, the latter
slipping her hook suddenly out of sight,
starting toward the stove.
‘•It’s only Willie,” and Mrs. Hey-
worth resumed her patching with a
sigh of relief.
The boy who entered threw himself
dejectedly upon the long, high-backed
settee, and biiried his face for a moment
in his hands, then, starting up sudden
ly exclaimed :
“I may just as well give up first as
last, I suppose.”
“Oh. Willie, did father say you
couldn’t go ?"
“Of course he did ! I might have
known it.” he added, in a choked
voice; “but I did think that surely he
would consent ftlien }ie knew bow much
I wanted to go to college, and how hard
I had tried to prepare for entering this
Fall.”
“I do think It is tdd bad, and Father
is just as medri as he can be ! I don’t

determinedly away from her mother’s
admonitory “Mary ! Mary !’’ *T don’t
care ! .f father waited us to hate him
he couldn’t try harder than he is now
doing all the time to bring it apout !”
‘•Well, grieving won’t do my work,”
said the boy, with a pitiful attempt at
cheerfulness. ‘Til have to quit think
ing about it, that’s Hit.”
A white look came over the moth
er's careworn face, and the lines abb tit
her mouth settled into tefafc Hgidity as
her eyes followed her son. Was it just
right that her children’s lives could
thus be cramped and narrowed down to
tho standard of one little soul ?
So well she knew of her children’s
troubles that she could not at heart
blame her daughter for the sudden out
burst that bad octured-^tbeie Was too
much truth in'ihe girl’s rapid words.
Poor Willie ! how hard*had he studied

Deacon Hey worth’s day’s work was
done long ago. and he sat, as usual, in
hi? eaRv chair, with his feet upon 'he
fender.
The t?.?rn«r clodk struck nine and the
deacon laid aside his paper; M-s. Hey-
worth’s opportunity had come at last,
the moment she had waited for so
anxiously.
•Father.” she commenced, desperate
ly. eoilege begins next week.”
‘‘Yes, I know!” and the deacon’s
voice expressed siigbt irritation.
“Willie dors want to go so had;
’pears like it’s a shame for the boy to
be di appointed.”
The deacon’s face heeanie flint.
“I’ve explained to William my rea-
<>ons for not letting him gu to college.
I told him he could not go, and when
1 say a thing I mean it; I’ve set uiy
foot down—”
“Ves! yes ! I knoW ; but 1 do wish,
Nathan, you wasn't quite so swill itt
•settin’ your foot down.’ as you aiway«
say; it’s mighty aggravatin' some
times, for you never pretend to ask me
what I think of such things, and for a ! l
I’m so quiet like, and don’t say any
thing, 1 feel it. nevet theless, and I’ve
begun to wonder when my time’ll
couie ”
The deacon gasped, and his wife,

idirv. continued :
• We’ve been married nigh onto

“I—I’m Surprised I am Hannah ;
I’m surprised !’*
Her voice trembled for a moment,
but the deacon's cmafen-ent was too
great for words, and she hurried on :
“There never was better children than
ours for smartness or work, anybody’ll
say so that tbows’em ; but because they
will mind every word you s^y.; and never
grumble when you cross ’em. doesn’t
make it right that you should deny
them every privilege and enjoyment.
“Young folks always hanker afrea fun.
and it doesn’t make them any better
vhristians to be always quieting them
down when they are laughing or sing
ing their merry songs. There’s Thom
as, the boy’s heart 13 se, on going to
singing-school—he can sing more songs
now than I ever knew in my life, and
he takes so natural like to the notes
and tunes—I don’t see why you can’t
lei him go, Ntitliau, for it would only
do him good—he’s glways so happy
when he’s singing, and God knows sor
row comes soon enough to some folks
Mary wants to go to school so bad that
she cries every morning when she sees
the girls and boys go by. I know I
couldn’t do all the work, but. hired help
is easy got, and you’d never miss the
money that would pay a girl her
wages.
“As to Willie’s goihg to college, I
don’t want to appear contrary, Nathan,
but I’ve wanted it all along, and I do
want the boy to go. It’s my opinion
he’ll never make a farmer, he’s too set
on his books; not but what a farmer
can be as smart as anybody, but it’s
not in nature to do one thing well when
your whole heart and sole are hanker
ing after something else.
“So ! I say let Willie go to college,
and let Mary go to sfcHoot, and 1 hoiua.-
to singing-school if they want to go ;
it’ll do you good, for there’s none of our
children goihg to be any of the igno
rant stock, let me tell you that.
“Of course you can’t, do the work, no
body expects you to ; but you’ve got the
money that'll hire it done, ami it's a great
deal better to he a few dollars out. of pock
et an’ have the ioVe of your children than
to leave it. all to them after awhile, and
mebbe have them teeliog glad you are gone.
1 think, so netitnes, rer'ups ye'd been a
little more kind and gentle like to Elizabeth.
sl>e might a—”
“Miss Heyworth ! Hannah !” exclaimed
the husband, with suddenly awakened dig
nity, “I hope you'll not attempt to biauie
me for what that sinful girl nmy have done ;
me a deacon !” Ami he clasped the chair
arms firmly, while bis .eel took an amazed
jump from the fender to the floor.
“No, Nathan ! Make yot’T children hap
py. and no matter if it does take a little
money to do it; you’d far better leave
them without a cent, than to have your
memory mould and rot because you denied
them these favors. It takes mighty little
sometiiiies to make another one happy, but
I’ve a uotion it goes a long ways with God!
* * * * * *
Deacon Heywortb could not sleep. He
was to say the least of it, surprised. This
was not Hannah's Usual way of talking.and
he could not imagine what in the world
possessed her now. If she had spoken
angrily he could have replied, but her luu-
guuge bad been so calm, so dispassionate,
so straight-forward that he had not the
least opportunity for anger.
“I jest wish Hannah hadii'l said any
thing about it,” he groaned, as restlessly
tossing over and over, he found himself
uuable to stifle his awakening conscience.
“I’ll not be fit for a lick of work to
morrow ?”
The deacon was not unlike the rest of
us after all.
bleep came to him at length, not sweet
and refreshing, but busy with dreamings
that startled the man’s soul like arrows of
warning.
He dreamed it was the last day ; the
nniiious on millions of people melted slow
ly from b fore him, briuging him nearer
and nearer the great arbiter of souls
Countless throngs of angels hovered near,
bursting forth into rapturous “Glory to
God in the Highest!” as thousands upbn
thousands of the redeemed joined their
number, or turned weeping away, as others
were born* shrieking to the eternal gloom.
At last, nothing remained between him
and the searching ejb bent upon nim. It
was an expression of infinite mercy, lov
ing compassion, and yearning tenderness,
yet unswerving justice, that seemed to
draw him hearer and nearer, as by some in
visible chain.
“I am a deacon” exclaimed otir friend.
There was no voice, no sound, yet deep
down i.i his heart, he seemed to hear in
w’thering beneath the awful [horror that
grew upon him But no “well done!”
greeted him there.
“Nathan, what upoft earth ! what is the
matter with you?” and Mrs. Heyworth
shook her husband vigorously. “Have
you got the nightmare?”
•'Oh, Hannah, I’ve bad an awful, an aw
ful dream !”
Shivering, thinking and resolving, befell
asleep again he dreamed.
H« was dead- -lying still and pale and
cold ; and yet he stood matching his fami
ly, as any circus bystvnder might. He
thought be could read their hearts, and to
his s’irprise there was not so much of sor
row as of cpntentment down deep beneath
their mourning.
His wife's face seemed to grow more
bright, as if a world of care had been re
moved from her life. “The children can
have their way now. poor things!” she
was sayiug to herself, although her eyes
were wet; “they could never do us they
liked when their father was living!” He
thought William was trying hard not to
think how glad He was that he could go to
college at last, while Mary and Thomas
were Saying to themselves—“No person
will hinder me now from going to school
when I want to go.” He saw another
form bowed pear, it was his long absent
daughter, and through her heart were wan
dering the words—“Thank God, I can
come home again !”
He tried to speak, to tell them he loved
them, that he had been with them all
those yesrs. but he could maRe no. sound
and i hey turned away; but he must call
them, must speak to them again and again
he tried to do so, and—awoke.
It was breakfast time at Deacon Hey
worth 's and the meal was being eaten, as
usual, in perfect silence. Again and again
had the husband an father been on the
verge of spratring—his lips only opened to
close again silently. No one knew the
previous night’s experience—of the warn
ings he had received—he could remain for
ever dumb and uo one would ever be the
wistr, but he had determined to right, if
possible, the wrongs of years, aud vgt—it
was not so easy as he had thought.
“William !” he exclaimed at length, sud
denly, slowly breaking an egg into the
glr’ss beside him.
'('lie boy looked up respectfully, but
wearily ; he too, hud speut an almost sleep
less night—a night of fears and disappoint
neni. -Well father?” he said queation-
ingly. for the deacou Lad stopped to break
another egg.
"If you can satisfy them that examine
thu"students, you may start to college
whenever you please.”
••Father!”
The tears came slowly into the fa'lier’s
eyes ; how blind he had been ! "Oh father!’
but the only ended in a convulsive burst of
tears, and the boy hurriedly left the room.
Thomas looked at Mary, and Mary look
ed at Thomas, aud the mother looked at
them both—the long-suflering mother
whose heart was throbbing strangely to the
promise of a new born peace.
“And Mary and I hotnas. ’ continued the
deacon, after n few preliminary coughs and
throat-clearings, “I believe school has
been took up, just about a week, but meb

until s'le gets some help; and you boys

and blunderingly, yet bravely, nevertheless,

“Oh father! yob dear, dear father! you
don't know how much we all love yon!’’
and for almost the first tiire within-iier
remembrance, the warm-hearted, impulsive
girl flung her arms about him, aDd kissed
him fondly.
“There, there child, you'll spoil me!”
exclaimed the delighted delighted deacon,
blowing his nose vigorously, and wiping 2
suspicious moisture from his eyes, “you'll
spoil me, Bore.”
“Nathan, bUsband ! '^theirchildren had
left, and she came up to the window be

“It means that God has been teaching

boat on the river. The contract was
made with the large sbip-building
establishment of James Reese, at Pitts
burg, Penu. Yesterday Cap 1 . Moore
received the information that the beat is
ticirly completed and to come for her at
his pleasure. He will make his arrange
ments to go ou in a few days, and the
steamer will be here about the first of
December. The steamer costs about
sixty thousand dollars compl ied, the
cabiu furniture itself costing six thous
and dollars. The new boat bus u steel
null, oue hundred and filty feet long
and thirty-oue feet iu the beam. The
huid is tour and onc-hulf feet in the
clear aud two and one-half fee£ iu the
shear. She has three fore-and-aft aud
five cross bulk-heads, and draws twenty
niches of water light. The cabiu will
accommodate fifty passengers, and she
has a texas, which will also accommo
date eighteen colored passengers. The
accommodations for passeugers are of a
superior order. The saioon is finished
in black walnut aud birds eye maple

She bears the name of “Chattahoo

the enterprise and indefatigable energy
of the plucky Captain. Not only is it

will make from ten fo twelve miles an
hour in slack water, aud as the uiagni
ficent and majestic steamer glides up
and lowu the Chattahoochee, like 11
graceful, swan-like thing of file, Capt.
Mooie will walk her hurricane ro< f with
Falstaffian stride, the “observed of all
observers.” the •’monarch of all lie sur

will tickle the silver-tongued, loud-
voiced bell, sending forth its i Warning
voice upon the breezy air, then with
his big heart swelling with pride, and
his bright- beaming eyes sparkle with
pride ana satisfaction, and his jolly,
good-humore3 face put on such smiles

lias been suffering for many years with that
dreadful aflliction known as Female Disease,
which 'ms cost me many dollars, and not
withstanding I had the best medical attend
ance, could not find relief. I have used
many other kinds of medicine without any
effect. I had just about given her up, was
out of heart, but happened in the store »f
W, W. Kckler several weeks since, and he
knows of my daughters affliction pursnaded
me to try a bottle of your Female Regulator.
She began to improve at once, I was so de
lighted with its effect that I bought several
more bottles.
The price, $1.50 a bottle, seemed to be
very high at first, but 1 now think it the
cheapest preparation on the globe and
knowing what 1 do about it, if to-day one of
my family was suffering with that awful
disease I weuld have it if it cost $50 a bottle,
for 1 can truthfully say it has cured niy
daughter Sound and well, and mvself and
wife do most heartily recommend your Fe-

mended to be.
