BY DAISY DALE.
(Concluded in our jVr.rr.)
At morn we know not what the eve may bring,"
And surest treasures take the earliest wing."
Ono week has gone; the' cash clerk of j
"Stcrman and JoMlyn" bad absconded, with an
incredible sum; the entire amount of their
bank deposit. Search had been vainly made,
aiicl OB-Ui? news soon .spread, one and another
creditor appeared. It was at the fifth applica
tion for ttUeL', lh*fc Mr. S. begged indulgence
for some days; ami as an appeal was being
mado to Mr. Joslyn, ho foil lo tho floor, iu n
violent spasm.
He was taken home speechless, and for some
days his mind failed. He wept in childish
tones, and vociferated, nt intervals ;?spoke of
"Edward?Iiis darling.child?the cheated or
phan.
Edward Unland- delayed not to obey tho
summons, which recalled him again to his
lovod: Ohes. In a short time, with heartfelt
Borrow, he btood again at the threshold of u
home, which years before had been to him, an
asylum of love and luxury. He hied to them
now, while grief and approaching poverty
threatened. A meeting under usual circum
stances, would hn'vo been "bliss below." Ed
ward was pstunned at his own impotency to
combat the emergency. He had learned of
their, pecuniary qtrait; and on tho route, his
busy brairi nnd hotter heart, hod pjoposoil and
rejected plnti after plan for their relief. He
felt thafc-fulness of soul, which grateful lo\'e
begets but in tho generous num. He whs re
solved, if his property was involved in the ruin,
it was no .personal loss j fur all his hopes.uud
interest^,Wei?{a.lr?adyinisorbod in thchs. Tf.
YtfithmitFliiH knowlodgq, it hud been invested in
the firm, wtych was irromediably bankrupt, he
Would novor allow a reproachful thought
to linger in'his memory ; being but a mtinrhe
too owned to all tho sympathies of manhood.
Tho stsgo stopped, and tho son, tho boy of
yf^erday, t|rod softly, firmly up the stops ; nnd
us he karicj over flic sufferer's couch, there
juotthe stare of the'sick one, a moistened eye,
.full of1 suoh gentle resolve, ns gayc tho old
man, Peace 1 .
"For. from the lessons studied long,
Of pleasure bright, .or fortune ill,
, j{ ^ We gather courage, strength and will
*?,j.; T? Hvo, to 'suffer, and bo strong.'* ?* \
Apd soon the truth, wjth all its sternness,.,
dawned upon tho household. Mrs. Joalyu
gave her. utmost efforts to rovivc hope and in
tellect in the stricken frame. Now, he was
'talking of oxtntvagaut schemes, and then, cry
ing in the most childish tones. His strength
scemod for awhile to baffle the disease j yet, as
his recovery was slow, his business had to bo
arranged und closed up. Edward had been
latterly so prcoccuped, nssisting Mr. Stermnnj
as only to be at home ti short time each day,
and this interval was usually passed in tho sick
room'. Hut the assignments and signatures
were finally all arranged through Edward and
Mr. Stermau.
The hour for thought had coine ; the hour
for action too. He had helpless parents ; for
them, lie would labor, and thus earn a right to
claim his beloved. Some friend, needing a
trusty and energetic agent, offered Edward a
liberal amount to undertake the business. It
might occupy him sevor.d months. No other
opening was as lucrative, ami he went. First,
however, tho sick man was removed to a .small
er home ; and the inmates .surrounded with
such comforts sis they must needed, from their
recent luxurious apartments. .Mr. S. promised
to look after their out-door business, and to
visit them often, llceotttly,, he had been there
frequently, and the visits of Julia Burton oc
curring simultaneously j led .Edward to suppose
these might have been by previous arrange
ment, lie construed the attentions id' Mr. S.
into an intimacy, which removed all anxiety
concerning the nature of his visits at Mr. Jos
lyri's house.
Tin- parting wurils wort' sad, bat few.
For the hope of return tskca the nting from Adieu'.
Tive jcars have, passed silted the farewell wc
referred to. After his departure, letters sent.
?11 teemed with hope and improvement, dicta
ted by unswerving affection. ' " ' '
Mr. Sternum was a true friend; Julian
daily visitor, the only medium of constant, con
btaut connection with their former coterie.
Thon IM. suffered lor let ters j the route was
circuitous, ami mail carriers faulty ; still, he
?dtoped: against hope," and laced the. wildering
jar. Working with life, as an earnest, vital,
essential experiment, he tunk hold of business
with purpose, and determined to be faithful
and courageous.
'?God given patience, Love learns strength,
AihI faith remembers promise."
No day can be Jived over twice, and there
are. some days, which "add years rather than
hours to tho experience," to the strength und
depth of a life time. The mail brought a let
ter, for which he should have been prepared by
two others of early date, which came at the
same time.
'?Darling Alice?my model, my only idol ; I
loved her first and only her; this affection Has
grown with my years, and absorbed my ovory
impulse, and now she bids me tell her, she
should wed another."
Her "father's strength had failed ; and he.
sinking, had longed,-?oh, so earnestly,?for a
sight of his only staff, his son. He had wept,
because his wife and child were poor, and with
out, protector; and in his heart, seemed but
faintly to trust that God, who in his age, had
brought him to such trouble."
Then came that yearning of her own heart,
for the prCbC'icc of her best ami dearest. Ed
ward, through whose wisdom ami generosity,
she had learned to appreciate "the tlod in
him."
Another letter, and her father had refused
to credit the earnestness of Kd ward's protesta
tions. Ah, child, "witch all was sunshine and
plenty, there was no reason, why he should not
prefer my Alice, hut now, I'm a mendicant,
and were he to be trammelled with (In; support
of yourself and mother, it would be more than
he would voluntarily assume."
"Now, don't be selfish, child, and remind
him of his promise; he is your brother,?your
kindred friend.

A CoiiUrnitMl Grumbler.
The following sketch may be a .caricature,
though ? we think (thoro is a human likeness
about it so real as to be easily recognized :
Some time ago there lived in Edinhurg a
well known grumbler named Sandy I Hack,
whoso often recurring fits of spleen or indiges
tion produced some amusing scenes of sense
less irritability, which wore highly relished by
all oxuept the bmteV good, patient little wife.
OueJ^-oing Sandy roso bent on a quarret;

chtjtcard the little wife say,' "Sandy*? bcjit
oii a disturbance to-day; I shall not ple'aBe
binu do what I can." H
?jjSbc dinner tiiuc came, and Sandy nnd his
friend sat down to dinner ; the ilsh was. eaten
ii^atlcuce, and on raising the cover of the dish
before him, in u towering pawsion he called
out,'? ?''

t'How dare you spend my money .ii: that

room, amidst a roar of laughter from his friend,
ho' clenched his list and shouted, "How "dare
you receive a present without my leave ?"

A Curious Lovk Stoky.?A very curious
St?ry is told by several of the ancient writers
respecting Kgirvard, a secretary to Charle
magne, and a daughter of that Emperor.' The
secretary roll in love with the princess, who at
length allowed him to visit her. .One winter's
night he stayed with her very late, apd iu the
meant inn; a deep snow hud fallen. If he left,
his footmarks would, be obseived, and yet to
stay would expose him to danger. ' At length
the priuJcss re^o!v^artt?t"e'.*irr5* him r?n her'back
to a neighboring house, which she did. Tt
happened however, that from the window of
his bed-room the emperor saw the whole af
fair. ? i, .' '
In the assembly of his.lordsoh the following
j day. when Egir'vard and Iiis daughter were
present, he asked what ?night to be done to the"
man who compelled a kiug's daughter to carry
him on her shoulders, through frost and enow,
in the middle of a winter's night? The lover
was alarmed, but the emperor, addressing
Vgirvard. said : ;:lTads't thou loved my daugh
ter thou shouldn't have come tonio; thou, art*
worthy of death, but I will give thee two lines.
Take thy fair porter, in marriage,; fear God
and love one another."
