Shu'd not listen ; TliOBvvoot littlo tyrant slid, "N" sir! no no I" Yet when I had vanished on luinir thus banished, My heart staid with Nancy while kneading tho dough.

John A. Jrtmr. Miss Piper's Pupil. Mich l'nnilorn Piper, toucher of music, who liiul lmnl work to keep soul anil hody togotliur, hut wus not tmlmpny, hecnuxe, iih hIio bhiiI, sliu was novor left without u now honnet for Kitsler Htimlay, mul ono black hill:, hoiiiuIiow, nlwayH innuiigeri to lust until tho could got a now one, received n very ttingulur nolo which had been handed in at tho door, tho landlady'.) "Kill" Hiild, by an "elderly Kcntlenmn." Tho oplrftlu wus onveloiicil in tho coslllicst ami most lichly decorated on- vclopo thatcouW ho procured for Iovo or nionoy nnywheie. Tho paper, near ly ns thick as cardboard, was to mutch. A coat of arim win in tho corner, and tho words below wero lis follows ; .Miss 1'iper: A 1'erson of negluctod odercuHhun is wishful to ho nndeituck. Willkull at !l. Mastf.u Si.mr.it. "My Kiaeioim!" ejaculated 51 Us Pan dora; "ho iiuiel have been neglected, that's certain. 1 novor saw anything liko that bofoio in all my life! Fatally forgotten, 1 should hay! Well, I wonder what ho can ho liko. Ho must ho rich 1 HuppoM-. Poor people can't alTowl Mich ntiitionery us this. And a coat ot arms, too! Shoddy, 1 stinmo; hut no that he's hut so thai ho's respectful, why should 1 caie for that? lie will probably pay well, and I've lost Anno Klin (frigs, hy marriiiKo, just as she was beginning to take variations." "Nora, 1 shall bo in if a new pupil a gentleman calls at three o'clock." Nom, who liked 5lh- I'iper, who often jjhvo her little piOfonls, and who kept on an upper shell of her closol some hals.un whieh sho was always ready to apply to llio poor girl's awk ward liiim' which weio always bolus cut, or burnt, pinched, t;mo un andablo iin, and ollcrcd to polish up tho grate when sho had u minute, "Hooing that a hlrunKor was coming." The morning woro nway. Two little girls had gone through their exorcises, and a heavy lady, who took lessons in vocal iuuie, had neaily hurst a blood vessel in endcxvoiing to gain a ceilaiu high note, which was tho object of her ambition. 5liss Piper had been around tho cor ner to fiivo a lesson there, and over tho way to see another pupil's practicing. Sho camo homo in n hurry, arranged her hair, saw that her little parlor was neat, and awaited her guest with fever ish anxiety. At last ho came. Nora showed somo ono up stairs, aud thoro entered at tho door an elderly gentleman, of lenign npiwarance, dress ed in tho latest fashion, hut not without regard to his age, who, bowing low, re marked. "I hope I am not lato mum. I know your timo must bo very valuable," "1 am sure I only wish overybody was lis punctuul," said Miss Piper. "It is exactly three o'clock." ' You're very kind, mum" said tho 1 gentleman, seating himself, ns Miss Piper mctioncd him to n chnir. "I'm an oldish pupil I supposo you think ; hut I'll explain. I think I've explained in my nolo, hut I'll explain again. I've been neglected, not from nny unkindncss for my poor mother did tho best sho could for mo but wo wcro very poor. I don't wish to mention tho humblo po sition I'vo always occupied until a year ago, when somebody from England camo and hunted me out. 5rothcr was dead, poor dear! Hut this was how it was : Father was very rich and up in tho world; mother was a housemaid. Ho married hor, and his mother was furious, and mothor couldn't stand it. Sho ran away; sho camo here, and lived an honest, hard-working life. It was only whon sho died that sho told mo my nmno was not Noggings, but Sligcr, and that sho had writton to my father, or got Homo lawyer to write, and ho was dead, too, and I camo into tho property and loft tho humblo position I won't allude to, and well, I'm tich, but I don't know anything, and before I go to England I want to bo educated. You understand?" "It's a very laudablo ambition, I'm sure," said Mis Piper. "I usually teach music, hut of courbo I can uiulcrtako tho English brancho." "Yes, mum," roplicd tho gentleman, hastily. "I want to begin with music tho pyanin'r. I havo never known any ono'in high life who could not play noon tho nvnncr. Jlcisin with that and goon to spelling, whieh I am conscious I sadly need." It was not the usual course, hut there was a seriousness and dignified man ner about this "neglected" person, that mado it impossible for 5Iiss Piper to say so. Mho mentioned nor icrms, mm sci tho hours for tho lessons, and so skill fully emphasized tho namo of tho in strument, that Mm Hliger, before his departure, had heirun to call it tho "peoarno" instead of tho "pyanncr." At tho door however, ho givo her n dreadful shock. "I wish, mum," ho remarked, "to be gin with tunes." 5liss Piper was a conscicnclous littlo teacher, but sho felt that thoro wcro pconlo in this world who must hno their own way; and 5Ir. .Sligcr's first lesson consisted of tho "Whlto Cock- ado." Ho had a very good ear, and was anxious to learn. From tho "Whilo Oockado" ho went on to, "I.ifo Let Us ('hoilsh," and poor, guilty 51 iss Pipor, who felt that tho notes bad very littlo to do with his performance, beat timo nud counted. MeiunvhUo sho found, that, leaving education out of the question, tho man was very scsiblc that ho was kindly and amiable. Once corrected on tho pronunciation of a word, ho never bo- fume n MicKsimor on Hint worn, now- over, it was ho who arranged everything not his teacher. As other lessons wero added, the neglected perron set tho hours for thorn; finally ho had six hours a day. All tho pupils were dismissed but ono. Tho spelling lesson, tho less in geography, the lesson in history, followed each other. All the week days ware his. Poor 5liss Piper had no power to say him nay. He paid well, ho treated hor with actual rev oreiuv ; but tho last pu pil wont when he elected to copy somo very Hat "llowor pieces" which Mis Pi por had executed in early youth, and call this a lesson in painting. Ho had all hor week day at last. He certainly had improved in pronunciation, tint 5liss Pipor felt herself to bo a humbuir. What they really did was to spend the day together exactly as ho chose. Playing with educational hooks, thump ing the piano, daubing llristol hoard with impo-sible llowor, scrambling through tho lesson in French of which 51 Us Pipor had a quarter from a Swiss gentleman. For along time sho was alone on Sunday, and usually wont to tho Methodist church, to which sho b longed i hut 5Ir. Sligcr soon altered that. He began by asking Her whether they bad "these espon" of hers at the Ca thedral on Sunday morning. And when she instructed him that "vcsjvrs" weio in the latter part of tho day, ho said that lie would call for her. Accordingly sho wont to vespers at tho Cathordral in tho afternoon, aud.at terthat, logulaily thico times a day to ditVoj-ent churches. It was then that tho landlady thought it her duty to call. Sho appeared in 5liss Pandora Piper's apartment at tho awful hour of ten o'clock at night. iuajetio in her crimp ing pins, and with a ery serious coun tenance, but sho was welcomed in with a smile by tho little music lonelier. "Clooil evening 5Iiss Grimm," said she, haven't had n call from you for a long while," "No, MUs Piper you haven't," said Mrs. (irimm, with much emphasis. "Hut yon could not expect mo to call after such carying on." "Why, what do you moan, 5lrs. Griimul" ejaculated Miss Piper. "Can you ask, Pandora Pipor?', an swered tho landlady in her deepest chest note. "The whole neighborhood is talk ing about you !" "About moP' screamed 5Hnj Piper. "You and that man," answered tho landlady. "5Iy pupil, 5Ir. Sligcr" sobbed Miss piper fairly in tears. Your Dunll? Don't tell mol" said Miss (Irimm. "Miss Pandora Phvor, I ahull Ihj obliged to put up a bill for my second lloor. jlou'vo Rot to go! Oh, oh, ohf' cried Pandora. "Can you think any harm of moT Why you could como in at any moment. Nora is in and out ovcry now and thin. Such a rcspcctablo elderly Gentleman, and such n correct person as I nni !" "It isn't mo, Pandora." said Mrs. arimm, (piito melted, "it's tho neigh borhood. Tho. church-going, (if it is church,) finished 'cm. You're of ago this lone while, my dear ; but I can't countonanco this. I shall put up tho bill. Oh, oh, oh, Pandora! that it should como to this!" Poor MHs Pandora! As hor friend and landlady walked out of the door with her honkcrchicf to to her oyes, sho stood motionless, ns though turned to a pillcr of salt. Sho saw just how this repair of ne glected education must appear to her small circle of discarded pupils, and felt a strong desire to drown herself or jump out of tho window, or turn on tho Kns, or tako a box of matches in her tea, and eho might actually, it seemed to her afterwards, havo died of mollifi cation, but that tho gong of tho front door, pulled violently at this monent startled her, and rvoru runninc mi wrapped in a waterproof cloak, for sho had been making prepcrations to go to bed, announced: "Mr. Sllger!" "Ho can't como up," said Pandora, nt this hour of tho night." "No, Misss ho asks for you to come down," niiid Nora. Pandora went down. Mr Sligcr was at tho door. "There's a tolescopo at tho corner," ho said : "somcthiuir goinir on in somo star or other, I behove, tict n bonnet and a shawl and como and havo a peep. It will bo a lesson in astronomy for me. You con explain it you know samo terms as tuo other lossons. ' Pondora obeyed without a word. The door closed after tho two, leav ing Mrs. Grimm staring at Nora. "That's tho capsheaf!" said Mrs. Grimm. "Now," said Mrs. Grimm, "I wlll." Meanwhile Miss Piper nnd 5Ir. Sligcr pcepod through tho telescope and saw tho rings of Saturn, which 5Ir. ghger supposed to bo phenomenal and tempo rary, and which were oxplainod ly Miss Pandora to bo fixtures, and then adjourned to an ico cream snloon of much elogance. "Thi, indeed, is dosporato dissipation, 5Iis9 Pandora said to hersolf, as sho sat beforj tho cut-glass goblets on tho dam ask cloth, and saw tho water splash from tho littlo fountain in tho centre into tho aquarium, and over tho glossy plants, all rcllcctcd in tho long mirrors. Howovor, what did it matter? Sho was nlre.idv "talked about," turned out of her lodgings as a person who had gono wrong. Sho would kcop this merry mo ment to remember whon sho bad put nn end to all of this, by saying to tho neg lected pupil that sho could no longer im nart instructions to him. Ho was ordering overy indigestiblo luxery on tho bill of fare, tho diamond on his littlo IhiKor Hashed liko a small sun, obsequious waiters bobing about be hind him. J to looucd kuuiiy at nor, and asked her if sho liked this or that. Ho was simnlo as an old baby ; oh kind as an old lady; and ho was a pleasant looking man. "All ocr! All ovor!" sho said to hor sel. "I might have known what a wicked world this is, and how ill it thinks of innocent things. Why might I not go on teaching him forovcr with out harm? Peoplo wero coming in from concerts, from tho theatres; tables woro ninug, hut theirs, between two columns, boyond the fountain wcro very quiet. Tho waiters were gono to execute Mr. Sligcr's behests. Suddenly ho turned to her and took a letter from his pocket. ".Miss Piper," ho said, "read that." 51 iss Pandora opened tho mUsivo and perused it. It was from a firm of lawyers, speak ing in plain terms of 5Ir. St. Eeger as a gentleman nnd a niiui of honor and for tune. "I got 'cm to give it tome,", ho said, "to show to you." "I did not need it, indeed," said .Miss Pandora, sadly. And this is tho way whip linmn is ronllv siielt? St. I.PLrer: it's a beautiful namo" "It sounds a littlo curious to me," he said. "Mother wroto it Sliger. I novcr knew. Hut you see I'm all right. They. neer took mo without a character when 1 went for a phico in tho poor time?, and 1 coulden't expect you to take mo with out a character, either. I I don't know whether yor despiso mo for my ignorance, or not, but if you don't, why, 1 want you to take mo for your pupil for life- toinarrv me, you know, Pandora. Will you?" It was a dreadful thing to do in such a public place, but Pandora Piper felt that she was going to faint tho room grow dark. Sho hold out hor baud for a glass of water. 5fost of it was spilt on tho front breadth of her now black silk, but that whieh passed her lips relived her. Then a sweet, soft scujo that tliero was no more troublo for her in this world, crept tnto her heart and sho smiled up nt him. "It was in my mind the first day I came," he said. "I had seen you often through tho window when you gave lessens to tho little girl at Hell's. 1 felt sure you were just tho woman for me, and overy lesson you gave mo proved it. I shall learn everything from you goodness as well as spelling. Oh, say "Yes!"' Sho said, "Yes," Mrs. Grimm was sitting up for her, pale with wrath, when sho returned; but Pandora took her by both hands and said: "You won't turn mo out until after my wedding; day, will you? You'll let mo bo married here? It's to bo next week. 5fr. St. Leger won't wait. You sec, wo will havo to go to England and livo on tho estate And, after nil, n poor little music teacher needs no great preparation." "Servants nnd diamond?, nnd a coun try houso and a city house, nnd every thing heart can wish," 5Irs. Grimm says, now. It's liko n romance." And ruticlorn, happy with her good, simplo husband, in her new Biirround jugs, often think so hersolf. PROSPECTUS.
