Egbert Bacon "vras my grandfather. His farm covered more than 709 good .ceres and Le considered himself wealthy, as he un doubtedly xras. lie started m me a poor boy, and his honest accumulation was the result cf his toiL Grandfather -was a very peculiar man. 3Iany persons considered him penurious, but he was really liberal; and from, the fact that his charities were given in se crecy, people supposed that he never -contributed to good worke. It was in Lis old age (and he lived to a great per iod) that a company of speculators bought his land, because of the fine water power that ran through it, and as fcoon as they erected the mills the place began to go forward until Bacon's farm was a thing of the past I recollect when the first mill was built and I well j remember my boyish curiosity in watch ing the mechanics who worked upon it. 3Iy grandmother was about the same age as her husband. She did not long survive his death and I mused a good friend and counselor when she left me. Grandfather expected me to be a farmer but as Pnever had any taste for hard work my thoughts and inclinations went another way. Of course he was not at all pbased with my stubbornness, but my good grandmother always fctepped be tween me and his wrath and shielded me from his displeasure. The old gentleman was a sturdy man at 70 years. ITe was invariably dressed in brown clothes and wore so broad a brim to his low-crownd hat that he miphfceasilv have been taken lor a Quaker at first sight But get him an crv once (for his irritability was easily aroused) aud he would let fly tuch sharp and vehement sentences that it was sometimes difficult to imagine that they were not profane. I was 19 years old and was deeply in love with Sallie 3Ifller, the young lady who iilayed the onran at the Cross Heads Church and cvas the Guest dancer araonc all the girls in the country. Grandfather had conceived a duliko for Sally because tho was a musician. He had no ear for music and was not "moved by concord of "sweet sounds," and nothing so quickly excited his iro as to scrape a violin within his hearing, or to strike a cord upon the plana. Much against my grandfather V inclin ation he permitted me to enter the law pflice of Mr. Smart, as a student. Hod it not been for the offices of nry grand mother I should not have had the wish of my heart gratified. But she smoothed the way for my grandfather's consent But he never ceased to ridicule me for my detentions and positively refused to give tueJiis!&onsant to marry Sallie Miller.- It would not have . been a wise thing in mc to cross the old gentleman's whims, for 1 was his heir; and he could have found another without much diffi culty, so I never urged my case, but hu mored him in everv wav I could think of. "What are' yon thinking about, fatherf my crandmother inquired. She always called him by that name. 'l was thinking," he klowly replied, taking the pijte from between his lips and dropping both hands upon his knees, that a few years hence, and one won't see good old hickory logs burning on the andirons. Stoves and grates, and that infernal coal that make gas enough to suffocate a household, will supply the place of our old fashioned tires I ought to have held my tougue, for hi was not speaking to me, but I want ed to show off some of my smartness, and so I replied t " Oh ! my dear sir, tbsre is really no occasion for having a stove which per mits the gas to cicape. We have now gas consuming stoves, and ene is not troubled in the way you suppose." " Pray, Mr. Smartness, permit me to inquire how long you have been pas tessed of this valuable information I I have known it for some years, or rather have heard it said that these Moves were gas-burners, but it's all a lie; there's not a word of truth in it. I've known them to send out as much gas as would kill an ox, if he were confined in the at mosphere. Now, sir, don't you feel like a fool T "Come, now, father,' milted ray grandmother, don't be so severe ou the boy." (She called me a boy , to tnc day of her death). "He only told you what he heard, no doubt, and of course every one is liable to make mistakes, especially about such matters." 14 That puts me in mind," continued my grandfather, "of asking you how you are coming on with yenr piano playing friend P "I scarcely see her except on Sun days." Humph f ' returned tar grandfather, clearing his throat I did not like ike ejaculation. I had often heard it before, and I regarded it with the tame apprehension that a mar iner does an ugly dood that rises p to the windward. " Humph ?' he continued, blowing a column of smoke toward the?ohina orna ment on the mantelpiece, "what are you good for T lit looked very square ly at me as he asked the qvesttoo. He evidently expected a reidy, so I an swer d by saying that as yet I did not know.- - "That's candid, at all events," he re plied. " I've been thinking a good deal about you of late, and it occurred to me that you might make a poor lawyer after alL And vou know what a poor lawyer is. You remember Simmons, the man who nsed to board about upon the farms during the Summer time 1 Well, he was what they termed a poor lawyer. He hadn't brains enough to make his profession support him, and was ready to do writing or saw wood to help eke out a livelihood." " How unreasonable you are, fatlw-r," Euggestedny grandmother. He did not appear to notice Lor re mark, but continued : Cnypu turn a somersault f " I never tried," I replied. "Then you am not as expert as a clown. For the lifo of mc 1 can't see what good vou are going to do in the world." " And I can't see," saiJ y dear old grandmother, " what occasion there will be for the boy to mend docks or turn somersaults. To hear you talk, one would think you had nothing to leave him but your advice, and that is not of the most encouraging nature." " A young man should rely upon him self, returned my grandfather. " Biches take wings. I've managed to hold my property .together pretty well, but how do I know he will do so when you and I are gone! Hell marry Miss Miller AYhat ort of a wife will the make him I Stuart with her heel, no doubt Nim ble with her fingers at the old organ, but those won't serve to keep a family from going headlong to destruction." " Sally Miller is a very prudent and useful girl," replied my grandmother. " I don't so what you find atnisJi in her." "Don't-you V hereplied. Then he re lapsed into silence, and smoked and looked into the iire. ' By and by "he go up and-walked out of the room, and then my dear old grandmother took my" hand and held it within her own, and told me. not to fret, that ahe would briug my grandfather to think better of my sweetheait I thanked her ever so mnch, but I had little hope thai she Would ever be suc cessful About this time my grandfather was selling some property in ' the town where I was reading law, and it became necewjary for him to go there to hign the the deed for the sale. At his request I accompanied him. Jt was nearly evening when his busi ness was finished, and we ct out on our return home. Four thousand dollars, the proceeds of tho sale, my grandfather carried in bank notes on his person, ns it was too late to make a deposit in the back. The old gentleman was in good buo'orj and talked pleaKantly as wc drove uloriir. Mr mind was full of schemes just at that time, as to how I was to support Sallie Miller if I married her "before .my grandfather died. I little dreamed that ere we arrived home a way would be opened to roc. Wo were going down a steep hill and it was -now quite dark, when tho horse stumbled and fell and in an instant a shaft was snapped in twain. I sprang out of the wagon, and grandfather quickly followed. The horso in his fall had become en tangled in tho harness, and lay hclples upon the earth. Tho moon was just ris ing, and gave but an uncertain light, for tho sky was full of tleccy clouds, but still it was light enough to perceive grandfather drop the package of four thousand dollars as he stooped down to free the horse. There it lay at my feet, and he was unconscious of his los. Another instant I picked it up and was holding it behind me, irresolute how to act You will undei stand that I did not mean to steal it, but somehow or other I had an indistinct idea that I could make the occasion subserve my aims. There was a large flat stone by the road side. I had trapied a rabbit there once and I knew there was a considerable cav ity beneath it. An instant later and the $4 000 was dejiocated in the hole. The shaft being tied up we got on our way home again, but it was midnight ere we arri 'ed at home. Grandfather had not been within doom five minutes ere he discovered the loss of hu money. He didn't get angry, but he was frightened. It was the first time iu mv life I had witnessed him alarmed. "I've lost mv monev," he exclaimed, as he drew his hand from his coat pock-1 et. Then he slid down, like a helpless cniio, into a cuair, uiu ids com jcrjJir- ation broke out in lare drops upon j his forehead. His face became very . .1 !IJ - V I .1. 11 white. Grandmother was standing by his side. "Never mind," she exclaimed, "grand sou will co back and look for it, and 1 dare say, will find it too, j "Four thousand dollars don't lay long I on anv road, however unfrequented, and j th road we traveled to-night has always some one jass:ng over it. Xo, the money won't be found. Ah ! mc and the old man lay back- in his chair like one ilL For an instant my heart reproached roe, and I was ready to confess my trick, for my grandfather looked the picture ef despair. "Ill so and saddle a hone and nuc back. Iaupposeyourausthave W it ; when the hone was being freed from the harness. Tis only three miles back, and the moon is now up. It won't take me long to ride it." "I think PI ro with vou," said the UIU 111 Kill n' KTnV .f ; " T r.l.'.; mTc 1 -1.1 I ae, rrandfather; if I cant mend a -l 1 a. li :n knowledge I -was alvayi a good hunter.

AU I have Till be years some day. "Tberea one thing you won't agree to let we have, I replied. He vavrd his hand. I know what you are going to aay," he answered "Well, your grandmother has been talking to me on that subject. Go along, boy, bring me back the 54,000 and 111 allow vou to taarrv Sallie ilil ler." I made a spring for the door and was hurrying to the stable, when the old gentleman followed me. "Remember my conditions, the ? 1,000 I lost. Find that for me and you can marry Sallie Miller, and 111 provide you. But if you fail to bring me the money, I say, I say nay, and perhaps for a good while to come." I flew alon" that road as fat as a good horse could carry me, but felt like a guilty wretch as I knelt down by the stone aad passed my hand beneath lL A gleam of happiness crossed ray heart as I held the package in my hind. My first impulse was to hurry horae as fast as I had thither. But reflecting that my sjeedy return might throw a suspicion on the affair, I allowed the horse to walk nearly the whole dis tancev Grandmother met me at the door. She said my grandfather had born counting the minutes since I Ift- He was still in the sitting room. I held the package uji, and grand mother ku$ed me. "You arc a good boy," she said, "and.) Ill see that vour grandfather does the right thing by Sallie Miller," "Here you are sir," I shouted, coming into the o!d man's presence, and placing the package in his hands. "Thank heaven," he devoutly ex claimed. "I had given it up, my boy. Did you have much of a search t Where did you discover it V "Just where I said you lost iu On the pot where we broke the shaft." Grandfather examined the package and found it all right. Then he bugged me, and pulled my ear, saying: "2iow, you scamp, you can marry Sallie Miller. Bring her home here, for she, no doubt, requires a good deal of instruction in housekeeping, and your grandmother will make her fit to keep your house from running to waste " Reader, these things happened many years ago. All the landmarks about tho farm have long since passed away ; but there is still a large flat stone by the roadside, as one rides out from the town of Randolph, and I never gaze npon it without recollecting how inti mately my destiny and that old rock are connected. Tho earnest men are so few in the world that their very earnestness be comes at onco the badge of their nobility; and as men in a crowd instinctively make room for one who seems eagcr to force his way through it, so mankind everywhere open their ranks to one who rushes zealously toward some object ly ing beyond tbem. Judah P. Benjamin, who was leading counsel in a case recently tried in Lon don, began an argument with tho adju ration: "In the namo of Heaven 1" The master of tho roll instantly stopod him, saying verr quietly: tio not see that Heaven has much to do in this cae, Mr. Benjamin ; the proper appeal ia to Opening In Jupiter.
