HOW THU OAK GREW.
An ncofn from the boufttawhere it had hung
The breezy summer through.
And heard the songs the uootl.ng; robii.3 sung.
And felt the dew,
Trembled when autumn winds blew chill
aiound
Tt erstwhile haapv height
A nd. letting go its hold, dropped to the ground
One frosty n.ght.
The leaves were heaped to make a flttin:- bed.
And rustled as it fell,
As if to say: “ Your winter couch is spread,
And ail is well.”
There, under icy ran and drifted snow,
Through months of cold and storm.
Though nil the winds of heaven night roar
and blow.
It nestled v. arm.
And when spring came with early bird and
bee.
Two little leaves were seen
In mimic 2random - , 1 kc its old-time tree,
Out-spreading green.
And so it grew, aspiring evermore
To reach as flue a height
As had tho tiny acorn known before
That autumn night.
Not In a single summer did it gain
Statute and girtii and strength,
Yet amplitude of bough and sturdy grain
Were reached at length.
And then in leafy majesty it stood,
With front that thunder-stroke
Could scarce abash—the monarch of the wood,
A full-grown oak.

FABLE THE SECOND.— Continued.
Stephen considered. Indeed, con
sidering was his forte: and therefore, to
some extent, his foible. Clearly the
sergeant was not a man to be easily
convinced of being wrong, and the
force of practical argument was alto
gether on his side. Everything depend
ed on the unlucky Dick Blackthorn get
ting clear—and he could not be any
thing like yet beyond catching. But if
Stephen allowed himself to be caught,
Dick would be safe at the Half Moon
long before the error could be discover
ed, and he himself, as soon as lie was
discharged as the victim of mistaken
identity, could follow him without much
delav.
“I see there's no deceiving you, ser
geant,* 1 sa’d ho.
■“ None whatever. So —quick! March!
Ah, ’tis nisv to >ee you’ve never leen
under my hands, ray lad, or 'tis not the
goose-step y’cught to be learning, raw
recruit as y'are.
Innocent or not innocent, it is no
agreeable sensation to be lo 1 through
the streets of a country town stripped
and bareheaded, and with scarlet uni
forms and lixed bayonets and loaded
muskets on each side. Fortunately for
his feelings on that score, Stephen Har
low was not known to a soul in Hun
chester; .so that the litile boys and gir's
who danced around the party in shy de
rision, and with that joy in others 1
misery w!.i h is me of untamed child
hood's ehii-fe-t charms, could not make
much imprt ss on upon his philosophy,
lie was no humorist; but there was a
queer flavor approaching to l.urr.o-as
he passed, in this plight, where he had
bought the ring, now for safety on the
m'ddle joint of his own little finger.
For there stoo l the jeweler himself tc.
see the row fun, Stephen was tempted
to throw him a no! of recognition, just
to astonish him: but thought it outlie
whole more suitable to his part (in
which he was beginning to take some
pride) to refrain from such insult to a
respeetal !o tradesman.
Presently lie was marched into n
!ab'o at the ba k of a small public
hou.-e, where he sat upon an empty
corn-ehc TANARUS, :.id listened to the tramp cf
the sentry pus ed over him. Well, the
adventure could not last much longer
now. But after he had heard the church
clock chime tho quarto.s thr.'e >, he
Logan to think that the one was getting
cecal ally long: and lie struck with his
list on the door.
“I say, ray man.' 1 he called out to
the sentry, ‘-how lmg am I to be kept
litre? 11
But there was no answer; ] erh ips a
sentry on duty was not allowed con
vets ;t!on with a prisoner. But when
the hours passed without an event save
a change of guard over the stable door,
a certain amount of anxiety began to
mingle with mere impatience. Ilow
long had Dick Blackthorn be- n at tbe
Half Moon? What mischief would he
He ue'ting into, left to himself so long?
For there must need-; be horses at an
inn: and women, too.
Ilowevo-, the door was opened at
last, and by the light of a lantern, for
it was now past twilight, Stephen was
marched through the s.able-\ard in si
. lcnce, and into a room iu tho inn, from
its appearance used for club meetings
and such things. And, by the light of
a pair of candle •, he saw himself in
presence of three gentlemen in scarlet,
with epaulettes, sashes, cocked hats and
.-words. These were seated, with
papers and a bottle of w.'ne before
them; vh'le the Irish sergeant stood at
attention near the door.
The cldc t and most imposing of the
officers glanced quickly at the prisoner.
“Your report, sergeant,” said he.
“And be sh—short.” Avery decided
hiccough marred the dignity of the la t
word. Messes were messes in those
lighting times.
“ Richard Blackthorn, sorr; of Cap
llayleigh’s company; listed at Hills
borough last Friday, and deserved on
the march to-day. Found skulking in
a ditch by me.”
“Appearances are against me, sir, I
must own.” said Stephen. “Butneith
er have I ever enlisted, nor is my name
either R chard or Blackthorn. lam
St ph -a Harlow, a land surveyor at
Millport —”
“The devil you are!” said the officer,
with a stare,
“It's a vv'se recruit, Major, that
knows his own name,” said one of the
others, with a smile.
“Weil,” said the Major, “there’s no
time to F se: and no spare men to 10-e
e ther.—Mildiuay—guilty or not guilty?
Smith? The prisoner is guilty of de
sertion ou the m march. Fifty lashes
in presence of the regiment. And, let
me warn you, w hat's your name—Pri
vate Richards —it will be death when
we re across the sea.”
Stephen could only stare. “But,
hies- you, sir, 1 am rot the man! ’
“ Prove it, then. A surveyor?—a
lawyer, \ou mean.—But time.'sprecious;
confound you, be quick, and don't waste
the time of the court over your pock
et-)—”
For Stephen had letters and such like
tilings about him that would have been
proof; hut hang it ail!—they were in
the coat that was at the Half Moon.
Now a reg'mental court-martial (for
such was this tribunal) is notoriously
tno must foimsl and the mod just
among all courts where ju-tico is never
allowed to he over-ridden by law or
e jut v: especially equity. But “Is 5 is
not “Wa-,” end it wa “Was” when
SB phen I lari <vv appeared before Major
Sjurn Aul, though fewer aud fewer
can remember them, very queer things
indeed u ed to ba done in marching
regiments In time cf war, both at home
tnd abroad. Over the drumhead no*
fcodv was vtv precis l about forms, ami
appeals were seldom made and never
heard. And it so happened that this
r ‘giraent was both pressed for tiin-> and
short of strength; part of it had already
embarki and, and the remainder, under
this Major Squire, was following close
at heel.
‘•lt’s unlucky, but I have uot my
pocket-book,” said Stephen.
‘•Deuced unlucky! But I don't want
to make ary c—founded mistake. Any
bodv know y ,u in what’s this place—
Hunchi ster?”
“Nobody. But in Millport I'm known
as well as the town clock—”
“Ali! How far of? s Millport?”
“Two hun Ire l miles. But a 1 -Her—”
“Oil! A letter would take four days
—we must be at sea in two. There,
prisoner. That will do.’’
Stephen was beginning to feel queer,
lie had not seen matters in this light at
all when ho had given lis clothes to the
real Pri\ ate Blackthorn and transformed
himself in o a deserter. Slill, it was
monstrous on the face of it. And a
lucky thought came into his mind.
Without putting Farmer Blackthorn
upon the painful sc'nt he was engaged
in keeping from them, and must not,
without u mo;, need, reveal, he saw
ho vhe could get oit of this queer
scrape at once and we 1.
“1 have a friend, sir, hard by here—a
responsible man, who will come over
to-m irrow and tell you who I am; Mr.
Marrish, one of the leading yeomen of
this country-side. If I may send him a
message ’ ’
One of the officers whispere 1 a word
to the Major, who regarded the prison
er crossly and doubtfully, with redden
ing “You’re a troublesome
rascal,” said lie, “whoever you are:
and if you’re lying the King’s got one
bad bargain; and if you’re not lying
lie’s well rid of another. We don t
want lawyers aga'n -t the French; we
want men. Sergeant, see that this fel
low’s message goes to-night. Gentle
men, one more bottle before turning
in.”
No Half Moon to-night. Stephen ob
tained a split quill and some ink and
water in its native bo,tie, and, by the
light of a stable lantern, on the corn
bin for a desk, wrote:
“Deak Mahkish: A blundering Irish ser
geant has arrested me for a deserter. I'm mis
taken for another man. And tiie worst of the
blunder is that the regiment is bound for for
eign service. Come over to Hunehester, pray,
at auy trouble, for which you may reckon on
my gratitude—for it is a serious thin*?—and
come yourself, for i have reasons, which you
shall know hereafter, for keeping - this mess
secret from the blackthorns; so, to them, not
a word. All 1 ask you to do is to ask for Al ajor
Squire, nt tl.c Hull, Hunehester, and to teii
him th..t 1 am, your most grateful,
Stephen Harlow."
Having given this to the sergeant
himse’f. he found nothing better to do
than to lie do wn in the straw and dream
of his Patience 111 morning found its
way through the green bottle-ends that
served t> keep out the air. So. as no
body thought of his needing a wash, In*
looki and next morning more than ever
Ike what he seemed to be*.
But they gave him a hunk of bread
for breakh st: and lie" might have had
better, an 1 Ic *n better waited upon,
arid b, tter believed besides, if he had
not transferred his purse as well a; his
pocketbook to Dick Blackthorn. After
a weary while, during which he vowed
twenty t rues never to be good-natured
again, he was about noon, again brought
into the club-room, and confronted with
the formidable tribu ral, now as sober

always are. But there, too, Goodness b<
thanked! stood Enoch Marr'sh; that
was better than well.
“Mr. what's your-nrime—”
“Marrhli, Major Squire. Enoch Mar
risli,” sa’d the farmer.
“Mr. Enoch Marrish,” went on the
Majo\with die condescension duo from
one whose trade was killing to one
whose trade was feeding, “we have
male inquiries, and learn that you an
a respe. table and responsible man. The
pr'soner here says you know him. Is
thatso?”
Farmer Marrish looked long and slow
ly at .Stephen. Then he shook Ills
head.
“No,” said he.
Stephen Harlow started as if the first
of the fifty lashes had fallen on his bare
shoulders.
“Good God, Marrish!” lie cried out,
“ibis is no joking matter! What do you
mean?”
The farmer shook his head again; and
that was all.

THE VI t* lilt AND THE COUNTRY MAM.
Patience Blackthorn wont half-way
to tho village to moot lior lover on his
way back from lluuchester, The wed
ding bells were already singing in her
heart. No; whatever father and neigh
hors might say, she could not believe
that ne’er-do-well Dick was really bad.
when all the world was so good and so
gay. And how good above all things
and creatures was her own husband
that was to be! llow true and thought
ful and strong he was —what a rock to
lean upon and what an anchor to hold
by. What a good wife she would be to
b in; if she did not love him so much
the burden of gratitude he had laid
upon her would be all too great to bear.
But Love knows nothing of debt: he
cannot be even grateful, he is so ail in
all when he is truly trtic.
What made him so late? Once she
thought she saw him in the and stance,
and took out her handkerchief to wave.
But, she was a trifle short sighted, and
presently perceived that she had mis
taken a hat and a coat for the man; and
the wearer presently turned out of the
path towards Leys Croft by way of the
church, and struck off towards the
cross-roads by the Half Moon. “I'm
afraid he thinks me a little cold,”
thought she. “But never mind that—
he shall not think so forever.” But at
last she had gone so far that her eager
ness to meet him would seem a little
too warm and eager, all at once. So
she sat upon a stile and waited there,
thinking happily, while the rooks cawed
home, and listening to the sheep-boil
tinkling far away. But s:ill he did not
come. And at last slic could only de
cide that his buyings must have kept
him iu Ilunchester, and that he was not
corning home at all before morning. It
was a disappointment, for she had gone
forth so full of lov e and joy. But still,
men must be men, and have their work
that makes small women jealous and
large women helpful and wLe. Pa
tience Blackthorn, though small, was
one of the large.
She fully expected, however, to see
him turn up for breakfast, and prepared
special provision for a man hungry with
an up-and-down-hill walk from Hun
cl.ester to Leys Croft. When she ditl
not come she looked for a message pres
ently; and when that did come then for
a surprise and a startle. She would be
going about the place and would l'ght
upon him hard at work, as if net ling
had happened; and then there might be
a sham falling-out, for the sake of what
would follow. Then, when he did not
came to dinner, sue began to fear that
he had sent a message by some chance
idler, who had lost it by the way. For
she had a head 0,1 her shoulders, aud
never jumped to uncomfortable conclu
sions unless compelled. Besides, Ste
phen was Stephen; there could be
nothing really wrong, or without good
cause. No doubt he had sent that
message, and no doubt would Outstrip
his errand-boy.
Nevertheless, she would not go down
the road to meet him, just today. She
did not like to seem running after him;
and he must stand his trial for negli
gence, even though he was acquitted
beforehand. And it was perfectly easy
to keep her resolution until the* day’s
work was done and tho lirA occasion
for breaking it had arrived. So, as
she would break it, she struck a com
promise. She would go along the path
till she struck a hedgo corner, whence
she touhl see him coming a long way
oil' without herself being seen, and
whence she could then run round home
so as to receive him as if she had never
been outside the newly-mended gate all
the day. Nor would she tell him what
she had done till that day ten years.
So thought, so done. She went into
her budi, and waited there, till sure
enough, sbe caught sight of a figure
coming down the hill. She did not
wait for better assurance, and she for
got that a chief part of her programme
was to run away. So she darted out
into the path, and waved her white
handkerchief as a signal that she was
the re.
Bat how her very heart blushed So
find, even while her kerchief was wav
ing, that it was not Stephen coming
over the hill. Surely, according to all
belief. Love does not make such blund
ers as these. Love has a prescience in
fallible—can see without eyes, hear
without ears, and llv without wings—
at least so the poets say. And she had
made the monstrous blunder of seeing
Stephen Harlow in old Farmer Mar
rish —no ; she could never confess that
to him, not even that day live-and
twenty years. The truth is she was
getting anxious, in spite of herself, and
was capable of taking a cloud in the
sky for Stephen, ha 1 that suddenly
gathered along the hill. She furled her
flag forthwith. But then it stiuck
her that Farmer Marrish was himself
coming from the and reclion of Hunches
ter, and if so, he might be the bearer of
a message from Stephen. So, making
believe she had uot seen him, she made
a pretence of studying the promise of
the blackberry crop till his plodding
pace brought him up to her.
“Good evening, Mr. Marrish,” said
she.
“Good evening. Miss Patience. It
looks settling weather, now—just when
the land's crying for rain.”
His words were certainly common
place enough: but even then it struck
her there was something odd about his
manner. Farmer Marrish notoriously
never drank, beyond his solitary lr'ght
eap, anything stronger thin water
gruel, or his abrupt and yet hesitating
manner, and the way in which one foot
seemed anxious to hurry on while the
other as plainly was bent ujk>:i staying,
and a certain constraint about his words
as if they would jostle unless kept in or
der, would have given her additional
proof that he had been at Hunehester,
whence a farmer was not supposed to
return quite as lie went thither.
Finally the stop] iug leg prevailed.
“ Tom Blackthorn all right?” asked
he. “ I must come and give him a look
up, before long. Only ’tis hard to And
the time, in this busy world —and no
body to help me but my own bands;
not but what they’re better and stronger
everywhere; ay, and younger, too.
Youth don’t belong to years, Miss Pa
tience. I'm a younger man than I was
twenty years ago.”
Nor was he, though gnarled and dry,
what middle-aged eyes would teim old.
But Patience wondered what an extra
ordinary old-looking head on young
shoulders he must have had, if it really
looked older twenty years ago than
now; the idea of developing backward
puzzled her; for if Stephen should age
in the same fashion, anil she with him,
they ought to become mere children in
twenty years.
‘•You’ve been at Hunehester?” asked
she, feigning iudillerence. “What a
year this will be for blackberry jam!”
“Hunehester? No. That is, yes,”
said he; for somebody might have seen
him there, aril he was not a man to
throw away a lie. She saw nothing in
the contradiction —except that Farmer
Marrish must assuredly have been
tempted from water-gruel for once in a
while; and, not having the modern
feeling about such lapses on the part of
self-indulgent man as di>t nguished from
selfless woman, she was rather amused.
It would be a good joke l'or her father
wdien he got home. “Yes. But there
was nothing going on there. Nothing
at all. At 1 ast nothing to speak of—
Fm not much good at the shop-win
dows,” lie said, with what he meant for
a Jivolv smile.
lie knew, as surely as if she had to’d
him so, that she was waiting to meet
Stephen Harlow: and this knowledge,
and the sight of her, instead of provok
ing iii't.int repentance for a cruel
wrong, only inflamed h's jealousy, h's
greed and liis desire. He was misera
bly conscious that he did not know the
straight way to a girl’s heart, 1 ke liis
rival; and so, as lie must needs get
there somehow, a crooked one had to
serve. He it said for him that the vil
lainous ] lot of getting his rival out of
the field by denying him had not come
full-blown into liis brain. Stephen’s
letter of summons, tally full and alto
gether to the purpose as it whs, had not
put him into Hill knowledge of the :i u
ation; this lie did not attain until he
reached Hunohe ter, and learned for
himself how th ngs were, and how they
would go if let alone; or, rather, if
given a push, to send them a little more
sharply in the way they were going of
themselves. Hut the seed hail been
fgwn; and no sudden impulse could he
brought in to extenuate Farmer Mar
rish’s “No.” And, if lie suffered any
qualms of compunction the way back,
they were laid at rest at sight of Pa
tience Blackthorn and her pretense of
looking for blackberries.
“No,” said Patience, Hanking him
her friend, but still not caring to wear
her heart upon her sleeve for any
pair of eyes but one to see. She
wanted to know if he had seen
Stephen; but she wanted him to tell
her without her having to ink
him. “No—l shouldn’t come to you
for the fashions. Hut 1 never looked to
see you coming from Hunehester on any
but inarket-dav.”
“Oh, my dear, I’ve got more irons
than one in the tire; and some of them
are pretty warm—only they want look
ing after; it doesn’t do to chance their
getting cold. It doesn't do to put all
one’s eggs into the soil—mv tour place

Croft, now, would make a man's
fortune; your father’s a first-rate farm
er, of course, but he don't go on with
the times. Now I do—l always go on
with the times.”
“Leys Croft will be made the most of
now,” said she. “The gentlemen who
are going to take it over—”
“1 know,” said he, hastily; "office
men two hundred miles away, and a
bailiff that don’t know the land. We
know what sort of farming that means.
I say, Miss Blackthorn, it's a sin and a
shame. But Tom Blackthorn always
was as stubborn as he's high.”
“But Stephen —but Mr. Ilarlow.
says—”
It was only by an immen-e effort tha;
I*s restrained from saying something
that would have made Patience his im
placable enemy. But lie did make the
effort, and only answered:
“Yes; lie's a sharp youth, indeed.
M hen lie's twenty years older maybe

Will your father be in next market
