Deacon Hey worth’* t»i foot down that such a thing should not 1 I am Deacon Heywortb,” shivering arid THE By the author of “ laching Pic-nic," “Only a Sailor Boy,“ <fcc. “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 care !” she Exclaimed, defiantly, turning 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 every moment that he could snatch from work—preparing himself for ex amination —hoping against hope, to enter college. The sunbeams slowly ’eoatVetP’d. creeping up and over her feet, her work and her folded hands, until they flashed upon her eyes with a sudden blihdn’css. “Come, nry, it’s most time for sup per, and father’ll soon be in from the field !’’ and sbe gathered up Her work With a wparv sigh. “The Deacon’s kind enough *t heart.” she thotigbl, half apologetically, “only he’s so set,” * * * * * 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, • hr.iwing aw«y her ias» remnant oftim- idirv. continued : • We’ve been married nigh onto twentv-five years, Nathan, hut i suT remember the time when I ever set my j be done 1” “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 be if you study hard, and learn fast. \ou can ketch up with the best of‘em ; you’ll have to fly around. Daughter, and help mother all you can nights and mornings until s'le gets some help; and you boys must give me a lift oned in a while on the larrn until we get things to work good. I want to say just here,” hb 6aid fulteringiy and blunderingly, yet bravely, nevertheless, “that ye’ve all been powerful good ch';l dren. notwitiis'andin you couldn’t often get what you wanted, and you shan't lose auytiling by it from this on. P'raps fath er thinks more of you all after all than you’d think, wh^n he's so fcl-osi aufl Ugly like!” “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 side him “What dots all this mean, Na than ?” “It means that God has been teaching ifie the errorof my ways, Hannah and I’m trying to take the lesson to heart.” And then laying bis hand gently upon the hard, tcll-worn one near his.

The Ehquirer-Suu has heretofore given its readers the information that the “People’s Line” were to have a new boat on the river.
