On Saturday it had become- Ki>etl abroad in the farming di-fci ic* that there via* not only serioua trouble betweeu the neighbors VVelton and Brackett, bui that they were g in_ to law ab ui it. On Sunday morning John Wei re told his wife be should not attend church. She had no need to ask her husband why he would not go out. Sh.- knew he was unhappy, aod that he cou'd not bear to meet bis old neighbor iu the house of God while the dark cloud was upon him. Nor did she wish to meet either Mr or Mrs. Brack tt. So they both stayed at his home. Peter Brackett was even more miser able than John VVelton, though per haps ho did not know it. He held in close companionship the vtry worst des jiou a man can embrace —the demon of wrathful vengeance- and in order to maintain himself at the strain to which he ha i sei his ittling?*, he was oblige*! to nurse the monster. He did not at tend church that day, nor did his wi:e. Two or three times during the ! calm, beautiiul Sabbath, as he glanced [ over towards his ucighbo>'s dwelling he found bitnseii beginning to wish I that he had not gne to set Job Wei- j ton in such a heat of anger f but lu* ; put the wbh away, and nursed buck !

On Tuesday evening Parson Surely called upon Mr. Welton The go-d man had heard ofth trouble and was exceedingly exercised inspiri. Bth mch were of his flock, and he laved arid r spected them.
