A PAWNBROKING INCIDENT.
Asa pnwbrolter in n populons suburb at
London, I liuvo Imd occasion to ace pain
ful, and sometimes not uuploasiug phases
of society. Justtogivo an idea of wind
occasionally comes under the notice of
persons in my profession, I shall describe
a little incident and its consequences.
One evening I stepped to the door for a
little fresh sir, ud to look about for a
moment. While I was gutting up and
down the mad. 1 saw a tidily dressed
young person step up to our side door.
She walked like a lady-mid let mo tell
you that in nine cases out of ten it’s the
walk and not the dress, which distinguish
es the lady from tho servant girl—and first
alio looked about, and the she seemed to
make up her mind in a flurried sort of
way, and ill a moment more wus standing
ut our couuter, holding out a glittering
seal in a little trembling hand covered
with a worn kid glove.
My assistant, Isaacs, was stepping for
ward to take the seal, when I came in mid
interposed. The poor young thing was
so nervous and shy, and altogether 10
unused to this work, that I felt for her its
if she bad been iny own daughter almost.
She could’nt have been move than eighteen
years old; too frail and gentle a creature.
"If you please, will you fell me,” she
said timidly, in a very sweet, low voice,
trembling with nervousuosa, "what is tho
value of this seal?”
"Well, miss, taking the seal into my
band and looking at It—it was and old
fashionod seal, such as country gentlemen
used to W'-nr, with a coat-of-arins cut upon
it—“that dcqiends upon whether you want
to ptodgo it or sell it out right."
"I am married, sir,” and she said the
words proudly, and with dignity, though
still so shy ami seeming ready to burst out
crying; "and my husband in very ill—and
—ana —"
And then the tears wouldn’t bo kept
back any longer, and she sobbed as if her
poor little heart would break.
"There, there, my dear,” I said to her;
"don’t cry; it will come all right in time;”
and I tried to comfort her as well ns I
could in iny own rough arid-ready-way. "I
will lend you, ma'am,” I said to her at
hist, “n sovoign upon this sea'; and if you
wish to sell it, perhaps I may ho able to
sell it for you to ndvnutago."
And so I gave her a pound; it was more
than the thing wan worth as a pledge; and
she tripped away with a lighter heart, mid
many thanks to me, and I thought no
mole of tho matter at the time.
The very next day, tho day before Christ
mas, there cumo into oar place of business
a verv eccentric gentlomon, who had called
upon"us pretty often before, not for the
sake of pawning anything, though ho was
generally dressed shabby enough, too.
But. ho was a collector, ouo of those men
who urc mad upon old china and curiosi
ties of all sorts.
"Anything in my way, to-day, Mr.
Davis?’’ he said, in a quick, energetic
muuuer, with a jolly smile upon his face,
and putting down tho cigarette lie was
smoking upon tho edge of tho counter.
Tho ltev. Mr. Drondman is a collector
of gems, and lings and seals, and in fact
of any stones that have heads or figures
engraved upon them, and I had been in
the habit of putting aside for him what
ever in this way passed through my hands,
for ho gave us a better price than wo
should get for them at the quarterly Bales.
“The fact is, Davis,” housed to say to
mo, “these things are invaluable. Many
of them are as beautiful, on a small scale,
ns tho old Greek sculptures, and some of
them even by tho same artists*, and they
are made no longer, you see, for in this
busy nineteenth century of ours time and
brains are too precious to bo spent on
these laborious trifles.”
Now, although X hml no atones of tho
kind he wonted just thou, it entered into
my head that I would toll him about the
seal which had oomo into my possession
tlio evening before.
I told him tho story somewhat as I have
just told it to you. He listened attentive
ly to all I said. When I had done, ho
looked at tho soul, amt said:
“I observe tlmt it has tho lieruldio em
blem of a baronet."
110 then congratulated me upon tho way
in which 1 lmd aolod. Ho asked, too, for
this young lady's address, which she hud
given Mo quito correct, and then he loft
tho shop without another word.
You must givo mo leave to toll tho rest
of-tho story iu mv own wuy, although it
may bo a very different way from that in
which tho reverend personage employed
ih relating it to mo afterward.
It seemed that it was a runaway urn toll,
A country baronet's son who had fallen iu
love with the olergymnu’s daughter in tho
village where the father lived, and they
had run away together, and got married.
Then they eiimo up to Londoni these two
poor young things, for neither his father
nor hers either, for the matter of that,
would have anything to say to the match—
lie full of hopes of getting on in the liter
ary and artistio lino; and she, poor creat
ure, full of trust in him.
The project of living by literature did
not turn out what was expected. Tho
young fellow, without experience or
friends, spont much time going about from
one publisher to another, and sending his
writings to the oditors of tho various mag
azines—which I need not say were always
“returned with thanks.” And then bo
fell ill; typhus, 1 fauoy, brought on bv in
sufficient nourishment, and bad drainage
and disappointed hopes. The Uegistrar
(Knend dosen’t give a return of these
Cases in any list that lam aware of. Hut
wo see something of them iu our lino of
business nevertheless.
It was just at tills time that Mr. Broad
sum found out Mrs. Vincent ; for that was
tho name of the young lady who came to
my shop with the gold seal. Cambridge
terrace is not very fur from the angel at
Islington, aud there, iu a little back street
of small respectable houses, inhabited by
junior clerks, with hero and there a lodg
ing house, in one of which Mr. nud Mis.
Vincent lived.
They worn rather shy at first of a stran
ger, and a little proud and haughty, per
haps. People who have seen better days,
and are down upon their hick, and are. apt
to be so. But the parson, with his pleas
ant ways and cheery voice, soon made it
alt right, and iu a jiffy he aud Mr. Vincent
were talking about college, for they had
both been to the same university. And
there was soon even a smile, too —a wail
smile enough—upon the poor invalid's
sharp out, thin face, with the hollow, far
away eyes, which looked at you as if out
of a cavern. He was the wreck of a tiuo
young fellow, too; of one who had lieen
used to his hunting and shooting, and all
tho fine country spirts which make broad
chested, strong-limed country people the
envy of us poor, thin, pale town folk.
Sir. Broadmnti earn© direct to me when
be left them. I did not live. In off, and
he thought i ;ot 1 might ' ’iid them a
help. “-Davis, said he, “that
poor fellow is dying; I cau see death in
Lis eyes.”
“What is he tt-dying of ?” I replied.
He looked at me steadfastly a moment,
and I could see a moisture in his eye, as
ho said, slowly and solemnly, “Of s.aivn
tion, Davis—of actual want of food.”
"A gentleman starviog in London, in
Islington; a baronet’s son, too! Why, it’s
incredible."
“Not at ail," said Mr. Itrondman.
"These are the very people who do die of
starvation in London and in great eities.
Not tho poor, who know wher%the work
house is, and who can get at the relieving
officer, if the worst comes to the worst;
but tho well born who have fallen into
destitute poverty, and who curry their
pride with them, and drive into some buck
alley like some wild animal into a hole to
die alone. Mr. Vincent wants wine and
jellies, and all sorts of good things; if
help hasn’t come too late. No, no, my
friend,” lie continued, putting buck my
hand, for 1 wus ready to give my money
in a proper cause. “No;-, no; I have left
them alt they want at present, Davis. But
I'll tell you what you cau do; yon can, if
you like to play the good Huinuritun, go
and see them and cheer them up a bit.
Mrs. Vincent hasn’t forgotten your kind
ness to her, I can unsure you, and I think
her husbnud would like to tlmuU yon too,
and it would arouse him up a bit, per
haps.” And then Mr. Broudman told me,
shortly, something of what these two poor
things had gone through -she loving and
trusting him so; and ho, half mud he hod
brought her to this pass, and (fould do
nothing for her.
Mr. Broudman wrote that very day to
the baronet; a proud hard man, I'm told.
But tho letter ho wrote back wus soft
enough, and melting to read; it was so
full of human nature, you see—the father's
heart swelling up at the thought of get
ting back to his son; and bursting through
the thick crust of pride which had pre
vented him from making the first advan
ces. And the parson says to me:
"Well, Mr. Davis,” ho said, there are
many people kept asunder only for want
of somebody to get between them you see,
and make peace.”
And I said; partly to myself:
"Why shouldn’t Christianity itself be
such n general peacemaker as that?”
"Ay,” replied Mr, Broadman, “if peo
ple only believed in it properly.”
That very day we got the baronet’s let
ter, 1 was on my way, in the afternoon, to
Cambridge Terrace, to pay my respects to
Mrs. Vincent —and 1 had sent in few
bottles of good old port wine from my
own wine-merchant—at least as good us
can bo got for money or love. Well, when
I got near tho door, I saw an old gentle
mnu walking up und down, a little disturb
ed, apparently, iu his mind at finding him
self iu such a queer locality, and as if
looking for something, or somebody. A
short, rosy-faced person ho was, olenn
shaved ns a pin, and very neat and old
fashioned in his dress; and with that sort
of an air about him which murks an Eug
lish country, gentlemnu wherever lie may
bo. Well, we soon got into talk, for I’d
spotted tho baronet in a moment, and he
wrtH anxious to find out something about
his son, us soon us he heard I knew a little
of tho young couple.
tfc“And you do not think, sir that my—
that Mr, Vincent is dangerously ill?" said
the old barouot; and there was a sob iu
his voice as ho spoke, and bis hand trem
bled as ho laid it upon mine.
"Hero is tho house, sir,” I said, "and
yon will bo able to judge for yourself.”
Wo went in. At last the baronet went
into tho room, trembling in every limb
with tho excitement of seeing his sou.
But when ho set eyes on him, the poor old
man was so startled Unit ho could scarcely
speak. His son saw him, and tried to
raise, but fell back feebly into his chair.
“Dear father," he murmured weakly,
stretching out a thin trembling hand "for
give.”
But tho father was on his knees, by tbe
chair, in a moment, clasping his aon's
head iu his arms, and fondling him ns he
had done when the man was a baby.
"What have I to forgive? You must,
forgive mo for being so hard, my dear
boy, and got better soon, Wilfonl, my son,
my son!"
I too had oomo into tho room; I could
not belli it, I was so interested and exci
ted. But I saw that in tho young man's
face which made my heart sink in my
bosom like lend.
The young wife saw it too, and gave
one, two three sharp screams, as if n knife
had been thmst into her side.
Mr. Broadman saw it, and quietly kneel
ing down, commended to God—as well ns
he could, for sobbing—tho soul of His
servant departing this life.
And I—well, why should Ibo ashamed
to confess it? I knelt down too, and cried
like a child; for tho young man had died
iu his father’s arms, at tho moment of re
conciliation.
