NUMBER 49. S L E C TE D. sing Down lml. "That looks bad," exclaimed farmer White with an expressive shake of the head, as he passed a neglected garden and broken down fence, in one of his daily walks. " Bad enough." was the reply of the companion to whom the remark was addressed. "Neighbor Thompson appears to be running down hill pretty fast. I can remember when everything around his little place was trim and tidy." "He always appeared to be a steady, industrious man," rejoined the second speaker. "I have a pair of boots on my feet at this moment-of his make, and they have done me good service?' ,* "I - egen. .elty emptoyed him for myeIf anad family," was the reply. "and I must confess that he is a good workman; but nevertheless, I believe I shall step into Jack Smith's this morn ing, and order a pair of boots, of which I stand in need. I always make it a rule never to patronize those who ap pear to be running behind hand. There as generally some risk in helping those who won't help themselves." "Very true; and my wife desires me to see about a pair of shoes for her this mornin.. I will follow your example and call apon Smith. He is not a great favorite of mine, however-an idle quarrelsome fellow." "And yet he seems to be getting ahead in the world," answered the far mer, "and I am willing to give him a lift. But I have an errand at the butch er's, I will not detain you." At the butcher's they met the neigh bor who was the subject of their previ oUs conversation. He certainly pre-. sented rather a shabby appearance, and in his choice of meat there was a re gard to economy which did not escape the observation of farmer White. After passing remarks, the poor shoemaker took his departure and the butcher opened his account book with a some what anxious air, saying, as he charged the bit of meat " I believe it is time that neighbor Thompson and I come to a settlement. Short accounts make long friends." "No, time to lose, I should say, re marked the farmer. "Indeed! Have you heard of any trouble, neighbor White ?" "No: I have heard nothing; but a man has the use of his own eyes, you know; and I never trust any one with my money who is evidently going dtow k 'i,.s' "Quite right; and I will send my,, .bill thi" evening. I had only delayed ol account of the sickness the poor man has ha l in his family all winter. I sup posed lie must have run behind a little, but still I must take care of number one." "Speaking of Thompson, are you ?" observed a bystander, who appeared to take an interest in the conversation. Going down hill, is he ! I most look out for myself, then. He owes me quite a snug sum for leather. I did intend to give him another month's credit, but on the whole I guess the money would be safer in my owe pocket." Heie our four worthies separated, each with his mind filled with the affairs of neighbor Thompsea, the pro. bability that he was going down hill, and the best way of giving him a push. tn another part of the little village similar scenes were passing. "I.tleclare," exclaimed Mrs. Bennett, .the dressmaker, to a favorite assistant, as she hastily withdrew her head from "the window, whence she had been gazing as the passers.by ; "if there is not Mrs. Thompson ,he shoemaker's wil eooning up the stepe with a parcel i h et haatd. ihe wants me to do her i"ir, sg ppose, but I think it would be a 'eIatuar. ,very one says they are I{teg down bil andad it a chance if I deergey my pay. *She always has paid ul,s promptly," S the reply. "Trite; but that was in the days of httr 5ospritf , I cannot afford to run Th. entranee of Mra,.Thopson pre e ited farther conversatiou. hwas etid.ntly. srrised at the Mr .> 4pdetýto d any work Yae il iit plee as an excuse, there Seething ti ube said, and she soon her leav:.Anbhier application e. ally .nseeseeful. It was hifiu the illage dress '.ite'w` ay Coteb the poor shoe nker%ý the teacher of a small , bood, Ihere two e:.~~, Would it o# t t6lt aour little as SO.r aceeoae P was the surprised ( o eel thefars hbas. dot yet Selshbe.t y present S s~s mtaoqe at that It ` r o ase er do t o the aeit buiet wttil t never do to go on this way." A little discomposed by her inter view with the teacher, Mrs. Thompson stepped into a neighboring grocery to purchase some trifling article of family stores. " I have a little account against you Will it be convenient for Mr. Thompson to settle it this evening?" asked the polite shopkeeper as he produced the desired article. " Is it his usual time for settling?" was again the surprised inquiry. "Well, not exactly: but money is very tight just now, and I am anxious to get all that is due me. In futurelI intend to keep short accounts. There is a little bill, if you would like to look at it. I will call around this evening. It is but a small affair." " Thirty dollars is no small sum to us jst'·~ ow,' thought Mss.. Thompson, as she thoughtfully pursued her way to wards home. "It seems strange that all these pay ments must be met just now, while we are struggling to recover from the heavy expenses of the winter. I can not understand it. Her perplexity was increased by finding her husband with two bills in his hand and a countenance expressive of anxiety and concern. "Look, Mary," he said, as she en tered. "Here are two unexpected calls for money, one from the doctor, and the other from the dealer in leath er from whom I purchased my last stock. They are very urgent for imme diate payment, although they have al. ways been willing to wait a few months until I could make arrangements to meet their claims. But misfortunes never come singly, and if a man gets a little behind hand, trouble seems to pour in upon him." "Just so," replied the wife. " The neighbors think we are going down hill, and every one is ready to give us a push. Here are two more bills for you-one from the grocer, and the other from the teacher." Reply was prevented by a knock at the door, aud the appearance of a lad. who presented a neatly folded paper, and disappeared. " The butcher's account, as I live!" exclaimed the astonished shoemaker. " What is to be done, Mary l So much money to be paid out and very little coming in ; for some of my best cus tomers have left me, although my work has always given satisfaction. If I could only have as much employment as usual, and the usual credit allowed me, I could soon satisfy allsthese claims, ul to meet thera now is impossible, and the acknowldg-.o..it of at.7 ;na bility would send us still on the down. ward path." " We must do our best and trust in Providence," was the consoling remark of his wife, as a second knock at the door aroused the fear that another claimant was about to appear. But the benevolent countenance of Uncle Joshua, a rare, but ever welcome visitor, ,resented itself. Seating him self in the comfortable chair that Mary hastened to hand him, he said, in his eccentric, but friendly manner: " Well, goodefolks, I understand the world does not go as well with you as formerly. What is the trouble ?" "There need be no trouble," was the reply, " if men would not try to add to the afflictions which the Almighty sees to be necessary for us. We met with sickness and misfortunes, which we en deavored to bear with patience. All would now go well if those around me were not determined to push me in the downward path." " But there lies the difficulty, friend Thompson. This is a selfish world. Everybody, or at least, a great majority, care only for number one. If they see a poel neighbor going down hill, their first thought is whether it will affect their own interests, and provided they can secure themselves, they care not how soon he goes to the bottom. The only way is to keep up appearances. Show no signs of going behind hand, aad all will go welh with you." ." Very trie, ncleJoshua, but how is this to be sone'? Bills which I did not expeet'to be called upon to meet for the ust' three months are pouring in pobn me. My best customers are learing me for a more fortunate rival. In sbort I am on the brink of rein, and nought but a, tliracle can save me." "A miracle which is very easily wmouit, then, I imagine, my good friend. What is the amount of your debts which press so heavily upon you, and how soon in the comm'on course of everts, could yon discharge them ?" "They do riot exceed Sf00," replied the shoemaker; "and with my usual ran of work, I could make all right in thre' or:fber months."' " We will say six," was the answer. "I will advance you b150 for six onothsl.

They had never before realized the beauty and durability of his work. The polite butcher selected the best pieces of meat for his inspection, as he entered, and was quite indifferent as to the time of payment. The teacher accompanied the children home to tea, and spoke in high terms of their improvement, pro nouncing them among her best scholars. The dressmaker suddenly found herself free from the great press for work. and in a friendly note expressed her desire to oblige Mrs. Thompson in any way in her power. " JTst as I expected," exclaimed Uncle Joshua, rubbing his hands ex ultingly, as the grateful shoemaker called upon him at the expiration of six months, with the money which had been loaned in the hour of need. "Just as I expected. A strange world ! They are ready to push a man up hill if he; seems to be ascending, and just as ready to push him down, if they find that his face is turned that way. In future, neighbor Thompson, let every thing around you wear an air of pros perity, and you will be sure to prosper.' And with a satisfied air, Uncle Joshua placed his money in his pocket-book, ready to meet some other claim upon his benevolence, whilst he whom he had thus befriended, with cheerful countenanoe, returned' to his happy home. A Bl0ooer. Few men have ever gone to Congress with more fun and popularity than the Hon. Leslie Combs of Kentucky. In the way of anecdotes he is unequalled, while his mode of telling stories im parts a tone to them that no one can appreciate who has not made his ac. quaintance. Among the "characters't that Mr. Combs knows like a book, is old Major Luckey, whose taste for bragging amounts at times to the sublime. Whenever the Major has a stranger in the neighborhood, he "opens wide and spreads himself," and with a suc cess that leaves us nothing to desire. The following scene took place between the Major and Col. Peters, "a late ar rival" from Illinois: "Major, I understand from Gen. Combs, that shortly after the revolu tion you visited England; how did you like that jaunt?" "'Capitally ! I had not been in Lon don five hours before Rex.sent for me to play whist, and a devil of a time we had of it." "Rex! what Rex?" "Why, Rex the King-George the Third. The game came off at Wind sor Castle-Rex and I played against ;>ii P;v, -,4 Ed. Burke---na res.k. rather comically." "How so ?" "As we were playing the last g'ame, Rex said, in rather a familiar manner, " Major, I suppose you know Charles Washington, do you not?" "No sir," says I, "I do not; but I tell you who I do know-George Washing ton, the father of his country." "Father be d-d !" says he, " he was a cursed rebel, and had I served him right, he would have been hung long ago." This, of course riled me, and to that degree, that I just drew back and gave him a blow between the eyes that felled him like a bullock. The next moment Pitt and Burke mounted me, and in less than ten minutes my shirt and breeches were so torn and tattered that 1 looked like Lazarns. This gave me rather a distaste for English society, so the next morning I set sail for Ameri ca. Six weeks afterwards I lande1 at Washington. The first person I 0pt after'entering the city was Q." "Q! what Q?" " Why, that d- d old federalist, Quincy Adams,; he wanted me to play ninepins with him, and I did so. Won two hundred dollars at two shillings a game, and then had a row.'? "About what ?" "He wanted to pay me off in Conti nental money, worth about a shilling a peek. I got angry, and knocked him into a spittoon. Whilst I still had him down, 'Jim' came in and dragged me off to the White House." "4What Jim ?" "Why, Jim Madison. I went, played euchre for two hours, when 'Tom' came in and insisted that I should go with him." " What Tom t" "Why, Tom Jefferson. Jim, how ever would not listen to it, and the consequence was that they went into a fight. In the midst of it they fell over the banisters, and dropped about fifty feet. When I left, they were giving each other h- in the cellar. Row it terminated I never could learn, as just then 'Martha' ran in, and said I must accompany her up to Mount Verion, to we George." t What W Martha do you wean ?" " Martha Washington, wfe to George, the old boy that gave jessy to the les-. sianj'. About here, Combs said the stranger began to disoover that he was pswal lowing thitgs!' The next stage that carst along, he took rssua gi ig an adjacent town.

I She asked alms of those who of late bad knelt at her feet, and sued for her band. They knew her not, and cast ing a look of scorn"'pon her veiled face and coarse wardrobe, bade her "begone!" She entered the country-here she net with derision and scorn. A few Lind-hearted people. it is true, bestow el aid; but these were of the poorer class, who had hard work to procure tneir own daily bread-they could not turn a fellow-creature hungry from their door, and therefore gave a small pttance from their scanty store. One summer's day a large company net on - Beach. They were most 'y from the city. The disguised heir ass, from some cause or other, had wan dered there. She asked alms of one or two, termed "upper tens." They spake tauntingly, but gave nothing. What they had said had been heard by quite a number of their company. Most of them laughed, or looked as if they thought it "served her right!" The beggar woman turned about, and was walking sadly away, when a well looking gentleman stepped forward, and catching hold of her arm. thus spoke "Stay! my good woman-tell me what you want ?" She replied, in a trembling tone, " I want a sixpence-only a sixpence !" "You shall have ten times that amount. Here," he added, drawing from his pocket an eagle, and placing it in the gloved hand of the woman. "take this; if it is not enough I will give you another. The heiress returned the eagle, ex claiming, " I want a sixpence-only a sixpence !" Seeing that she could not be made to take the coin, the gentleman drew forth a sixpence, and gave it to the strange being beside him, who, after thanking the generous donor, walked slowly away. After being laughed at for so doing by his comrades, he set out in pursuit of the beggar woman, saying, " Per haps she is an heiress, or an angel in disguise. I mean to ascertain." "Not that he thought this. He wish ed to show his indifference to what his comrades had said, besides satisfying himself about the strange female whom he had aided. He soon overtook her, and thus spoke: "Pardon me, madam, for pursuing you; I would know more about you." As the speaker ceased, the mask dropped from the face of the female, and the beautiful heiress was portrayed "before the astonished gentleman. That they were afterwards married fhe heiress used this means of pro curing a worthy husband, and the gen erous gentleman had long been looking for an "angel in disguise." The happy husband is often heard to say that he got an "heiress for a six pence." REAL ESTATE.
