Tlir Tiiitrh. in (I. I*, itl'Xl XIIAM. A great many years since, when bright eved and fair-eyed bissc.- vveri not so plenty i• i \ v to gland n-they now are, there dwelt in tii • tovv'ii of ]•———, .a pretty village,distant, I then- line five amltwoiity miles t’rotn “.M.ar ! k 1 ttown,” n peculiarly comely and graceful m .idea, who bail a pceidi o ly ugly and cross- J g ainei ! hot wealthy old father. Minnie, and Dans >.ill’s on!v child;and re | port said truly that sia* would be his sole \ legatee. The old man was; a R turd ay farmer, ; and was e tinnued to be worth full ten thou i sand dollar*; at that period a very handsome ! fortune, to be sure. The sparkling eves and winning manners | of Minnie Da'iforth had stired up the fine feel ings of the v. .ole male portion of the village, and her suit as were numerous; but her fa ther was particular, am! none succeeded in making headway with him or her. In t!i<* meantime, Minnie had a true and > lov.il lover in .vci r. 1 f Who would have sup -1 posed for one moment that surli a fellow ; dare to look upon beauty and comparative re. j flneineut ? His name was Walker; or, as be \V;i c generally call'd —J oi* Walker; ] and In* was imply a farmer, employed by j Danfortli, who had entrusted Joe w ith the uiau agemcßt ok Lk place-for tw oor jw*- l.*t a very excellent frnae^t ,!l *l a light good manager, wii8 r Ab> < T'laiii, unassuming good- “olkcr. Hewas young, too ui> V^™*' ,, L v -d , ’ee; aud he actually fell with tlic beautiful, pleasant, joyous, .Minnie Dunfotth, l.is old employer’* only danglftey. Bt tlw- sti angi rt pirn of occur rence was, that Minnie returned hi* love car itestly^truly and frankly; and premised to wed him at any favorable moment. T hings went on jnenily for a time, hut old Danforth diseovered certain glances ami a't tentions between them, which excited l.is en vy and suspicions. Very soon afterwards, •iqe learned the old man’s mind, indirectlc, ‘ in regaril to his future disposal of Minnie’s hand, and he quickly saw that his case wus a hopeless one, unless he resorted to strata gem ; and so lie set Ids w its at once to work. By agreement, an apparently settled fold nose and distance was observed by the lovers towards each other for five or six months; r*nd the father saw (as he believed,) with sat i: faction, that Ids previnns suspicions and tears had been ail pictnatnrr. Then, by agree ment also between theni, .lor, -rtbrerrted him self at evening; and, right after night for full three mom : s longer, did .lee disappear as soon as hi work was finished, to return home only at bed-time. This was unusual, and old Lanfoith determined to know the cause of it. doe fankly conics:.id that lie was in love with a man’s daughter,.who resided 1. -.- than three miles distimt, hut, after a faithful at tachment between them lor several nienths,. tiie old man had utterjy refused to entertain hte’applicatiuH for the young girl’s hand. This was capital. Just what old Djin'i.irth most dt-nitt'd. This satisfied him that he bud made a mistake in regard to his own child; and lie would help joe to gel married, and tbn* stop all further suspicions and trouble at home; So he said: ••Well, Joe, is she a buxom lass?” “Yes—yes,” said Joe, “That is, other folks say so I’m not much of a judge, myself.” “Ami you like her?” *-Yes, sir—yes.” ‘•Then, marry her,” sail! old Danforth. “But I can’t—the father objects—” “Pool*!” continued Danforth, “let him do so: what need von care? Run away with her.” “ITope?” “Yes! Off with you, at once! If the gal w ill join—all right. Marry her, I.ring her here; you shall have the little cottage at the foot of the lane ; l’Jl furnish it for you : your wa ges shall be increased; and the old no,si may like it or not, an-he will!”. “But—” “i’ut me no huts, Joe. Do as I hid you ; go about it at ouee; and: —” “Yon will stand by me ?” “les,,to the last. 1 know you, Joe. Y’ou’rc a good fellow, a good woiknfy? /;md xviH make any body a gixu! son, or liushnnij.” “The old fellow will be so mad tliOngh.” ••Who cares, 1 say ? Go on, quickly, but quietly.” “To-morrow night, then,” said Joe. “ l es,” said Danforth. “I’ll hire Colyer’s horse.” “No voushart't.” “No.” “1 say no. Take my horse-j-tlic lsesf one, young Morgan ; he'll take you elfin fine style, in the phaeton.” “Exactly.” : “And ns soon as you are spliced, opine* right back here, anil a jolly time we’ll have of it at the old bouse.” “Herfather will kill me.” “Bah! He’s ;in old fool, whoever lie is; ha don’t know your good qualities, Joe, as well as 1 do. Don’t be afraid; faint heart, you know never won fair woman.” •• The old mail will be astounded;” “Never mind, go on. YVe ll turn the laugh on him. I’ll take care of you, and your wife, at any rate.” “I’ll do it,” said Joe. “You shall,” said Danforth; and they part j ed in the best of spii its. | All hour after dark, on the following even i ing, Joe made his appearance, decked in a nice new black suit, and rearly looked very i com ly. The old man bustled out to the barn :th him, helping him to harness young “Mor gan” to his new phaeton, and ie-uiing the s;unky animal lutnseli into tiie vard, away wnt happy Joe alker in search of Ins bride. \ low rods diiant fryei t!io Longin’ fouqjjli lo r, us per previous arrangement; and repair i"-! so die next village, (he parson very quicjt lv made them one in holy weuloc!;.
