IN MEMORIAM.
Prentice, of the Loulsville Journal, thus
speaks of the following beautiful lines: " One
might almost wish to die if be knew that so
beautiful a tribute as this would be written to
his memory."

CHAPTEBR XXXI.
Mrs. Cheerful was preparing to go out to b
attend to some businms. lher dress was of
black bombazine, plain and neatly fitting, n
made without etrimming or ornament, a black p
crap. shawl covered her shoulders, and a neat
black bonnet, with a long crape veil thrown a
back, falling gracefully down, brought stroog-. t
ly out the fairness of her complexion, and her t
mild sweet face, loocked -noro beautiful under o
the deep mourning. Presently, Nettle. came n i
to bring her ma a pair of gloves, black silk
they were, the child too, was dressed in the
most sombre garments and a shade of sadness n
had settled on her fair young face. What does -
it meant Ah ! poor thing, they mourn the loss
of a protector, and their kindest friend-Mr. h
Cheerful is dead. The tramp f the little feet, q
as they rush to meet him on his retrn from
work, each rosy mouth anxious to be kissed a
first, will thrill his heart no more. He will D
come no more with smiles and encoura ing
words, kisse and caresses to ebee his w ie i o
her weary round of duties, which until now
she never felt to be trying and .brdensome. a
The light blue smoke that ascended from his r
segar, wreathing about his merry face and f
curling around his head, until the children in t
glee declared that Papa's head was on fire, has
faded into the light air, and will come aain c
no more, as he will return to gladden their n
hearts, never, never, never ! a
"Well, what of that, we must all die," as tl
the amiable Mr. Alfred Plant would say. "t]
But leaving a wife, so tenderly raised, al. r,
ways so kindly provided for, upon whom be
lavished so much love and six young children b
-what will become of them I ei
" Ah ! but that's none of our business, we are h
not responsible for other men's families," as t
Mr. Alfred Plant would "reply, making good o:
the proposition with the solid logic of political
economy.
r. Cheerful's death was sudden and unex. an
pected. Some boxes of machinery, for a plan- d
ar an Red River, had been consigned to the a8
care of the firm, and as the water was low at tI
the time, the boxes were stored in the upper h
part of the store. When a rise came, the w
planter was not ready for the machinery and ti
it was kept for several months, until his ai
buildings were completed, when in accordance b
with his instrctions they were shipped. b
They were lowering the boxes, when Samson,
who did not notice the qutid running of the ft
rope, stooped beneath the hatch-way to pick
.up some trife that he saw there. They yelled fc
from above, and those on the lower floor shout. at
ed to him to get out of the way, but he did P
not hear them, and the immense box came he
thundering down; just as it came within c0
reach, and in a moment more would have ai
crushed the poor negro beneath its ponderous m
weight, Mr. Cheerful sprueg forward, and hi
hurling himself against the box with almost al
super-human energy, suceeded in swinging M
it far enough out to save Samson's life, but at tl
the terrible sacrflie of his own. The great dl
effort.hs had made caused the rupture of a v
vitallleood vessel, bermorhage ensued and al
thbog ' hu.was taken home, and a physician ti
called at one, the loss of blood was too rapid at
and severe to admit of effectual assistance and ci
n a few bours he died. Then came the funooer
al. " His friends and thote of Cane, 'lant

Dick had been a great favorite, his goodm h
qualities were staty and fresh itn the memory p
of the people, so that his friendks would have p
made a large company, but.when wore added,
the friends of the great commercial house of II
Cane, Plant and Cotton, there was an immense It
crowd. The body was exposed in the parlor, g
in an elegant mahogany case, with silver a
mountings, with beautiful floral offerings ar- h
ranged around, and blessed candies, in ilnely 04
worked silver candle-sticks, were bhrruing
around the coffn. As the friends caine, the i
majority of them, being like the deceased, of h
the Catholic Faith, made the sigi of the Crss C
and knelt for a moment in silent prayer, sup- i
plicatiug the Oremt Ruler, to have mere on 04
nhe seul that had so recently left Its earthly
tenemeat. Their actioas and words were as 5
varied as wer theirleoks and ages. 5

there worthy of his recognition, he calmly j
advanced to the bier, looked at his ltee
for a few moments and then .etired to the
gallery, wher be was met byl Mr. MacVain I
with himself appointed as pall bearers. I
"A sad calamity, this," said Mr. MacVain, as E
they exohanged salutations.
" Yes, it's a bad Job," replied the other. s
" A noblei fellow, be was,"said Mr. MacVain. ca
"That's what the worldsaid," replied Mr,
Alifred Plant, dbldy "and he was a very com- s
potent book-keeper, but. unfit to manage his
own affairs, he was careless, thoughtless, and a
extravagant. b
"It was a generous act that cost his life,"
said Mr. MacVain, surprised at the other's P
manner and language.
" I think it would have been more generoaus b
to have thenought of his children and let the n
cussed nigger be killed Y was the reply. ti
" It i agret pity m sorry foris fami- n
ly." said M. MsVain. o sa
"Yes-that's the sentiment of the world- tl
weep and cry because people who live beyond h
their means finally find themselves poor," sid
Mr. Alfred Plant, in a sneering, haughty man- o
ner, "look at the-extravagance of this turn w
out, mahogany cofin, silver plate and a dozen
carriages, where's the money to come from to al
pay for such display. ti
"Indeed," replied Mr. MawVain, with a I'
alight touch of sarcasm, " the generosity of t'
your firm is so well known that I was sure the
whole matter had been planned and arranged ai
by your orders." V
'o, sir. I have Ianugh to do to attend to w
my own affairs," was tlecold and dignified re- d
"At such a time," said Mr. MaoVain, as if P
apologizing for the family, "people are not apt c
to stop to think of economy, but think that .
the best is not good enough for their loved hi
ones, and indeed I think it is a great misfor- m
tune for his.poor wife." H
"She's young and healthy," replied Mr. Al- y7
fred Plant, in an off-hand manner, as if to dis- Ye
miss the subject,. "and she's very good looking is
-she'll soon marry again." yr
Mr. MacVain made no reply in words, but in
his look was full of anger, scorn and contempt, re
quailing before it even the cool, calculating sP
Mr. Alfred Plant who felttherebu re and turned co
away. From that time they were never friends,
Mr. M. cgrain 'elt a thorough contempt, but he
little concealed, while Mr. Plant disliked the in
iother from a knowledge of his own inferiority. l.
The house and yard was by this time filled th
with those who had come to the funeral, the at
relations came into the room, the Priest per
formed the appropriate ceremony of the Church,
the last sad faewells were said, the corpse was
carried to the hearse, the company entered the |' i
carriages and the cortege slowly and solemnly th
moved away to the St. Louis Cemetery, where, de
amidst the speechless grief of his family and hb
the silent, heartfelt sorrow of many friends, di'
the remains of Richard Cheerful were laid to ar
rest. In after years the place was often wet th
with the bitter tears of the loved ones he left to
behind, and decorated with bouquets and flow- th
ers, or a simple wreath of evergreen, by the Ci
hand of some person, who remembered and inl
thus acknowledged his unostentations acts of
of charity and benevolence.
Mr. Cheerful died in February, and it was foE
now the latter part of April. His business do
affairs, as was expected, were in very bad or
der, his liabilities summed up a very large in
amount and the creditors were pressing in we
their demands for money. Of all those whom ow
he had accommodated during his life, many of wE
whom were largely indebted to him at the pl
time of his death, only two had offered to as- be
sist his bereave family. One of these was a
baker, who had been started in his business bhi
by Mr. Cheerful, and the other was a widow, Bil
herself poorly off, to whom he had loaned tio
from time to time, small sums of money.
The time had come when it was impossible pis
for Mrs. Cheerful to satisfy the creditors by yei
asking a further delay and she was therefore
preparing to call on some of their old friends yo
to ask their advice and assistance. She direct, ph
ed her eteps towards the office of Cane, Plant
and Cotton where her husband had served so as
many years. Mr. Cane was in Europe, and
had been absent for nearly a year so that dn
she knew her business wold e with n
Mr. Plant. She had always received from him
the greatest courtesy and respect, and had no
doubt but that he would take an active and re1
friendly interest in her affairs. It.
Mr. Alfred Plant was walking up and down
the elegantly furnished private office, his mea
sured step was sorcely audible on the rich pr
carpet that covered the floor, be was without de
hishat and the smoke from his cigar, from so
which he gave at regular intervals, meditative
puffs, curled in light clouds around his finely
shaped head, as with hise hands crossed behind ma
him, he promenaded to and fro, lost in some im
pleasing dreaming, or conning over some new at
plan for business or pleasure, Mi
Mrs. Cheerful noticed that a stranger held foi
Dick's old place, for Mr. Plant did not believe
in rotation with clerks but always aimed to wi
get the best man for the least possible money,
and having long regarded Dick's salary as too bli
high, which he could not change before on ac
count of the opposition to the movement by ne
Mr. Cane, he had illied the place with a new
man who would not expect so much as an old s
hand in the house would lhave looked for, Mr.
Cane being absent he was able to arrange the as
matter to suit his own views of "political
economy."
As be made a turn in his walk Mr. Plant ob- thi
served his visitor and gracefally offered her a ly,
seat, whlbh she oaccepted. He was quite sosia- I
ble and friendly,but in a rigid, formal manner. fr
"Mr. Plant, I have come to ask you for ad
vice and assistance," she said after a few mo
ments conversation, at the word "asssistance" he
he grew cold and dignifed in the extreme, col
"my business is in avery bad state; wewere in thi
debt when poor Dick died, and in order to Le
satisfy these people, until I can earn money, he
I am cempelled to ask a loan." of
"Yes--Just as I supposed," replied Mr. Plant, we
" what do you propo todoto do to ear mosey."
" I was thining, sir-of opening a school," col
she replied, with-esitation, for asheo felt his ly,
cold manner, "I could ,ive music lessons, and
have hopes of success.'re
" A school! that's always a woman's resort, fui
thator a boardinghouse !" exclaimed Mr. Plant,
impatiently. a
"What shall I do, sir )" she asked, nervonusly. pa

dignified manner. "Dick Cheesrful had earned a
his thousands before you had gained the dig- i
nity of a third class clerk, and he was, h
through life, in all relations, hat you can t
never be-a gentleman." .
As she finished speaking she turned and left n
the room, but had nt gone far before he called h
her back.
"She's a d--d pretty woman," he said, in
communion with himself. " A little flirtation t
would be exciting for a chane." h
"dHere, Mrs. Cheerfuil-realoy-" he said, as
she returnd to the office "if(ou mst have w
this money-why-I will give it to you, and- m
I'll call to see how you get along in a day or co
two."
"A peculiar light was playing in his eyes, r
and a hypocritical smile spread over his face. a
With the innate feeling of self-protection al- 0I
ways the companion of virtue, Mrs. Cheerful ie
drew back from him and indignantly replied; hI
"Not one dollar would I take from you if the at
possession of it should purchase me ease and
comfort for the remsinuter of my life. I am cc
sorry that I wronged my feelings by coming yc
here. You have insulted and slandered the hi
memory of my husband, and I pray God that
His malediction may follow you for it. Keep
your money; .treasure it in your heart; draw in
your soul more into your miserable self, if it m
is possible, and live, as you always have, on th
your own admirations. oBut don't come near
me ; never cross the threshold of my house, nor ca
recognize me in the street. I would not even
speak to a man for whom I felt the thorough on
contempt and loathing that I do for you."
She was not like herself, her face fushed, ha
her eyes flashed with anger, -and her whole "
Smanner becanme haughty and dignified, as -she i,
looked for a moment at th Wattled eoue and
then retired, leaving hinicmltois owi thoughts l

The summer season being at hand, the

those who had made fair profits in business ca
douring the season, the capitalisets and property
holders who had gathered in fine rents and "
dividends, and the clerks, mechanics and an
artisans, who had saved the splendid wages go
that had rewarded their labors, were preparing
to go North or Westward to spend or invest
their -"balances," thus leaving the Crescent tel
City thousands of dollars poorer, and furnish- MI

of the swanops and forests, and the non-im

in home improvements. His surplus capital cai

As he sat at the tea table, his family around sat

young George, "for you hardly ever touch a

" Ye I do," replied Cecelia, sharply, "I play
as good as Annie."
'tWell, I'll rse about it," said Mr. Macourty,
drawing from his coat pocket a large package, y
neatly tied up.

replied. "lie will be here in the morning for str
